((Very good- thank you.))

Lars pondered this.  Moving too much food around would make it obvious that something was up, especially since the workers were already spooked.  Blocking the exit was pretty much out, since there was too much space to cover.  Boarding it up would both take too long and be extremely obvious.  All that could be done was to change things to his advantage and wait.


Move most of the obvious stashes of food back toward the back corners.  Leave a couple piles that were visible from the front where they were.  Find a spot hidden from view from the front that could cover, and allow ambush.

Something like:

A Ambush point

Get what I mean?

HMR stands for Hazardous Materials Requisition, not Horrible Massive Ruination, though I can understand how one could get confused.
God help us if we have to agree on pizza toppings at some point. There will be no survivors.

Bishop pointed at Timmy with a serious look on his face, unamused.

"Don't. Don't even think about it. I will rip you a new one if you try."

Leave, making sure not to touch this potentially infectious strange man, and go find Mesk. Take the insignia's on those for my own and compare them to the one I have.
You keep hold of the packaging with one hand while continuing to point at Timmy, strafing around the room like an accusatory crab, until you sprint out of the room and off to find Mesk. When you find him he appears to be partially comatose, sitting on his bed with a rather pathetic face.

"Hey mesk. Hey?" You wave your hand in front of his face, "I'm gonna take this packaging ok?" You say while pointing at the capsule on his bed. He doesn't reply so you just grab the packaging. Hmm Timmy's is a gold heptagon with a vertical line while Mesk's is a purple square with a horizontal line through it. Hmm, but you're not really sure what he got in it.

Get my suit from the locker and paint "TIMMY" on it (EDIT: the chest area) in large friendly letters (multicolored!). Under my name, paint a regular heptagon with a vertical line through it.
"Big Tim always told me not to think too much. He said I'm not very good at it. What do you mean, anyway? If you think I'll try magic on you, don't worry. You're on the 'friend' list, not the 'kill' list."
Well, that was odd. You leave the Barracks and head to the hanger, getting your suit from the locker with your name on it before sitting down next to a parked shuttle. [handi:1] You paint "LIBBLE THIMY" and a irregular pentagon with a diagonal line on it straight across your faceplate.

Raise hands in air and shout.

"YEAH!!"

((How on earth is my character so well?))
(Avatar of war is a hell of a machine.)
You raise your enormous synth-flesh arms to the sky and roar out a battle cry.

Roger sets the rifle aside and opens up the emergency kit, checking the contents and organising them to make sure he can what he wants quickly.
You push the rifle aside and lay the emergency kit on the table. It's a metal box about the size of a lunch box, painted white with a red plus symbol on one side. You undo the clasps and open it. The contents are mostly standard first aid stuff: Gauze, bandages, a stick of stitch glue, adjustable metal things for making splints and the like, everything you need to take care of minor wounds. It all seems fairly neatly packed as it is so you leave it be.

((Very good- thank you.))

You gather up the food an armful at a time and transfer it around, moving most of it to the back of the shop and setting it out in a way that, you hope, looks random. That done, you move the remainder of the plastic cubes up to the front of the store and array them in a tasteful manner near the center of the store, easily spotted by any poor, hungry fool that would come looking. Then you head over to one of the checkout stands on the far side of the shop and huddle down behind it, hidden from view. Now it's just a waiting game.

"Well, maybe the faceplate isn't the best place for a drawing... wait, I have an idea!"
Clean off the writing and drawing, paint a smile and friendly eyes on the faceplate instead. Paint "TIMMY" in friendly letters on the suit's chest as well as I am able.
((Maybe the amount of sides on the figure represents potential danger or power? That would mean the sphere is a seven on the power/danger scale and Mesk's doctoring contraption is a four, which would make sense with both danger and power - Mesk's contraption may work nicely for medical needs if you push the buttons in the right order and potentially cause grievous bodily harm if you don't, while the sphere seems to let you alter reality to a degree, but improper use results in self-alteration (possibly other, increasingly more horrible things as well). It would also fit with piecewise's statement - say, a purple heptagon with a horizontal line through it would mean the same contraption, except insanely dangerous/insanely powerful.))

"Hmm... Gonna need to figure out what he got... Steve, what did he get exactly and did he take it to someone?"

Follow the trail that Mesk left and find out what he got. Then go looking for the other guy's stuff and wrapping.

You take off your gloves and goggles and pull out the IV drip before swinging your legs out of the VR machine and hopping out. You head over to the mess hall, passing a man who is poking at a first aid kit by the look of it, and take a look at the menu/ordering station. Lets see...Meat 1-3, Side 1-3, Dessert 1-3, Drink 1-3. Ah.

You rub the wait paint off with the sleeve of your shirt and try again. [handi:1] You paint a picture of a penis on your face plate and write "Poop" on your chest plate in big cursive letters. Perfect! Wait, what were you doing?

"Hmm... Gonna need to figure out what he got... Steve, what did he get exactly and did he take it to someone?"

>What he got is still with  him, in his arms.


You look down and see the cylinder clutched in his hands. Huh.

I'm starting to get flashbacks from 4th grade. Going through puberty at the time certainly didn't help.
Clean off the penis drawing (the cursive lettering on "Poop" is artistic enough to leave as it is). Try recreating the pillow I disintegrated, using my power.

>Literally everyone around you.


You press a few buttons on the menu and the machine next to it slides out a tray and proceeds to vomit a combination of what looks like ground beef and mixed veggies onto it before placing a cup of blue fluid down on the side. Tasty.

You wipe the proud mark of virility off your suit with one shirt sleeve. You put the paints down and decide to try and do a little bit of recreational physics defying.

[will:4+1]
You close your eyes and will the pillow you so callously murdered to rise again. The air in front of you distorts and distends horribly, swirling through red and yellow and black and putrid green before finally clearing. What sits in front of you looks...vaguely pillow like. Its more like a square mass of slowly expanding and contracting flesh, albino pale and shot through with obviously pumping veins. What looks like a human mouth completely with loosely affixed teeth but no jaw is situated on one side. You can hear it breathing every now and again, a sort of wet sucking noise.
