...I have the feeling that I will need that shortly.

Since I'm close to the AM, go hide behind her counter.
If I'm not, jump onto Steve and hide behind him.
If I'm close to the Doc, go hide with him.

((And with the AM/Doc supervising.))

Duck and cover.

((Also, Grate must really be power-hungry. That's two times he's tried to become more than human now. :P))

((I have 20 Will! I'll be fine.))
((Until you roll a 1, resulting in a 2.))

"For three tokens? Not...really. A MK III would do it, even just a exoskeleton would do it. But three won't buy you an exosuit good enough to boost it to what you need."
((You know, there are several people who are swimming in tokens right now. Like Lukas, who has more than 20 sitting around. He isn't around much nowadays, but I'm sure other people could help out. And you can have that 1 token back if you need it, I didn't expect to get so many back from that manip. We'll just say you bought it for 3 then. Or maybe you can borrow someone's Mk.III or something.))

Quote
So you get that perfect decomp installed. I'll save you the work of having to wander around, get your suit opened and operated on, because stuff.
"There aren't any limits beyond the fact that you can't get any more subatomic then atom innards. No messing with quarks, but you can pull apart atoms and rearrange the numbers of protons, neutrons and electrons to make new things. Mostly, the limits are your own capacity. Making a lump of iron into a sword is fairly easy, converting the atmosphere around you into steel and then into a machine gun is possible, but hard. And don't try to make anything living. Again, it's possible, but not smart."
((Thanks, keeps things moving. Though I noticed you haven't deducted 20 tokens from Miya's Space Idiots file, might want to do that if you get around to it.))

""Ah yes, thanks for the info. Since Steve won't be needing me anytime soon it seems, I'll just busy myself with trying out my newfound skill, and training with it.
However, just as he's about to order a load of practice materials with the AM, the quantum shit hits the fan.
Quote
He tries to run and the wall melts in front of him, letting him burn his way straight into the hanger.
((I assume Miya is in his regular place in the hangar? If not, just ignore my post.))

"Holy hell, what is that? Where did that even come from? WHY DOES THIS STUFF KEEP HAPPENING?
How do I stop it, or stabilize it or something?"
he frantically yells to the AM while patching her through so she can see what's happening. "Any idea whatsoever will do."

Back away from the Grate thing. A good amount.
If AM has any sort of advice on how to stabilize him or help him using my manip, do so.
If not, just try to stop or slow down whatever is going on with him, if that fails or I have no idea of how to do so, just use manip to push it away from the Sword and other teammates, but not off of the gangway if possible.


((No idea if this will work at all, but it's the only thing I could think of to help. Adding more space magick to the situation might just make it worse though.

Looking at the thread title, I'm curious about 2 things:
-If he had passed that will roll, would he have become some sort of powerful being capable of bending physics? Or would it just have lowered the bad effects?
-If Miya had failed his will roll during his 'Apotheosis', would it have resulted in him going mad with power and Steve putting him down before he wrecks the ship? Might want to research later what could happen in a worst-case scenario then.

"May, let's leave for a bit. I'm not liking those noises."
Thomas halts the cooking and runs.

"Oh no. If this is happening....then Grate...he might...he...he's going to....HE'S GOING TO RUIN MY FELAFEL. NOOOOOO~"

Reluctantly run away with Thomas away from horrible Grate Monster.

"Steve! Is Grate's electroshock implant still working to any extent?"

((With the entirety of the Sword possibly in danger, that makes me think; aren't there hundreds of other people in different parts of the ship that we haven't seen yet? Or was Steve lying about that too?))

Because trying to stuff Fate/Whatever's engrish and the title of a 17th century book on statecraft into Pokemon syntax tends to make the content incomprehensible.

(( Huh, that's an interesting point. He did imply that we were not the only prisoner unit on the ship, see mission 1 where 6 teams were sent down from the sword, implicitly from 6 different prisoner units on the sword. However, we were the only ones involved in this assault. Or at least, the only ones visibly involved. Perhaps other prisoner units have simply been converted to 'crew', with us being somehow special in terms of the units on this ship. Judging by the gangway, there certainly seem to be an extremely large amount of crew on the sword. ))

((I'm REALLY hoping that the Will roll is something I can repeat every turn to get under control...or, at least, repeat at some point so I have a chance of ever interacting with someone again.))

((Well, Grate wasn't trying that time. He was just...succeeding.))

((Someone alert Samurai Jim!
...Or Miyamoto, since he has a Japanese name and is probably better-suited to fight Xan, but Samurai Miyamoto doesn't roll off the tongue so easily.))
