Try to grow a mouth and get back to normal. If I get a mouth, eat some drugs!
[1]
Using the conversion kit I adjust my gauss rifle to be used for long ranges.
I'll just give ya this one. Consider it done.

Pan ignores the punch for a second, instead nodding at Dubley.
"Out-fucking-standing trooper. We'll make a genuine asset to the revolution out of you yet. Now get up, put that gun away and help chuckles over there get back to a somewhat human form, will you?"
He turns around to look at Auron
"Ah, if it isn't Magpie. Well, your little lovetap has gotten my attention now, what do you want?"
You get about halfway through your first speech when a giant human mouth clamps down around most of your upper body and starts chewing.
"I WISH I COULD SAY I WAS SURPRISED BUT YOU ALWAYS DID LOOK LIKE THE TYPE OF MAN WHO'D LOVE TO HAVE ME IN HIS MOUTH! BUY ME DINNER FIRST, MARINE! HAVE YOU NO COMMON DECENCY!"
Light up three bluesmokes, at the same time! How long before they start to effect me, maybe 3 or 4 missions of using them continually? Also, go to the armory and see about getting a canteen of ARM standard alcohol, then head back to the briefing room and relax.
You keep smoking them like that and you're gonna be out of it real fast. The booze helps too.
[wiki] guys, keep track of how many of these smokes people take if you don't mind.
Jason gives a slight cough to announce his presence. "Sorry to interrupt, but I've come to pay off part of that debt, Flint. I'll just leave it over here by your helmet and let you two get back to what you were doing." The voice emanates from the porcelain mask that the skeleton is wearing. The mask doesn't betray any hint of emotion as he looks at Flint, and the only identifier that it is Jason is the rather distinctive Shackle attached to his arm. He sets his last token down by Flint's helmet.
"I'll get out of your hair if you want. Don't want to intrude on your moment." Jason states, feeling rather awkward although the mask thankfully doesn't show it. "Ma'am." He adds, nodding his head towards Lyra in acknowledgement.
He takes a few steps back towards Gilgamesh.
"That's a nice battlesuit, by the way." He notes, reaching out a hand towards it before stopping himself. "Sorry, wasn't thinking. The artifact I bought with the tokens you loaned me let's me see the history of items I touch, I think. You mind if I touch the battlesuit or that neat cannon on it, maybe find out more about it?" Jason asks.
Give last token to Flint. Touch Gilgamesh under the shroud if Flint doesn't stop me.
You touch the suit under the shroud.
You get a condensed flashback of the entirety of the suit's experience, it's use by miya and then by flint. You feel like you could pilot it very very well.
Sigh, understand that no one is coming, and go to armory.
"Ahem...Hello. I would like to ask, can I... I mean, can you modify Gungnir kit to be used with Спектр, like... for additional cost maybe, messer Armory Master?"
((I'm asking if can pay AM to make Gungnir with Spektr instead of laser rifle))
Does that change the price?
[wiki] regardless.
Huh. Maurice smiled slightly perplexedly, and proceeded as if nothing happened.
Wrap the shirt and put it back into the container.
Resist the technicolor weirdshit. No one except me can see it, no one has commented, it exists in my mind solely.
Therefore, resist the shit out of it.
Here go the lessons!..
You put the shirt away without any real problems. The strange effects weren't screwing with your ability to control yourself, just your ability to see properly. With it gone there's a bit of a multi-color haze left, burnt into your vision like you were staring at the sun, but otherwise things are fine.
Joker team, could you please meet me in the hangar for equipment assignment and a chance for us all to go over the plan. Again.
While waiting for the Joker team to show up, try and intuit what those metal disks from AMIABLE AMBER might be. Don't actually use them though. Oh, and put on my MkIII.

[Wiki] dat crap
The buttons are probably medicine depressors of some sort. Judging by the packaging they're not a amateur job either. They're probably a professional drug kit, maybe for sale, maybe an example kit? Who knows.
Joker team, could you please meet me in the hanger for equipment assignment and a chance for us all to go over the plan. Again.
If it's not one thing, it's another. I think I'm on to something here, and I get interrupted. Again. Oh well, we all obey Steve and/or his designated commanders.
Yabcy aborts his VR session AGAIN and hits the hanger.
"Hello sir. I've already swung by the armory and requested everything you requisitioned for me, though I haven't gotten too much time to familiarize myself with the equipment. These are definitely not like the guns the army had when I served before that court-martial..."
I wouldn't hit the hanger. It's pretty hard.
Sell microwave amp and Painkillers to the team fund.
Can people do that? Sell to the team fund? If they can, [wiki]
Request Shark suit from team fund.
HEY! MIYA! REQUEST HERE!
"Seeya later Taddok, good luck with your limbs. I've got a mission to go on."
Report to the hangar. See what Thaddeus has for us.
Restraining my innuendo systems here.
Head to the hangar, and practice some acrobatics in my new body, with the goal of getting a better idea of my limits. Also test the Jump Pack. Can it be used to boost me forwards and backwards? How often can it be used before it needs to charge?
You can easily leap about, bounce off walls and ceilings, do back flips and otherwise act like a circus performer. The jump pack can be used to boost forward, but doing so is like being grabbed by the backpack and thrown forward. It would take a lot of skill to use it for quick horizontal movement like that without bowling yourself over every time. The jump pack can do 3 seconds of push, but takes about 30 seconds to recharge.
"You're too loud, woke me up." replies Auron.
"Ooh, free stuff." exclaims Auron looking at his wristpad message.
Head to hangar for gear and debriefing.
Done and done
Jobasio blinked as the VR machine slapped him in the face, then frowned.
"Well... that's rather odd. A software bug, perhaps?"
He strokes a hand against his gauss rifle as he speaks, staring at the VR console for a moment before getting to his feet with a shrug. He glances about the Rec room, then decides to head to the barracks, and his locker.
He opens the locker and gently, carefully places his beloved gauss rifle inside.
"Won't be a moment, Whig dear, you just wait here, hmm? I'll be back shortly."
He glances left and right quickly, eyeing the barracks somewhat nervously before closing the locker with a clack.
>Put my rifle safely in my locker, then find that porno mag I'm pretty sure is still floating around my inventory and go find a secluded spot (a hangar?) to have a good, intensive read of it. Pass the time with it until the VR machines are working again.
So You walk in, pants around your ankles, a copy of "Boobs and high powered laser weapons" held up by your face, as The Joker team is in the middle of assembling to do their debrief. I'm just gonna assume they stare at you, in stunned silence, as you shuffle over to the area behind the nearest shuttle.
King Sulan'takan'litkham'ramen III decided to use his last token to purchase a monoatomic razor despite the bad memories.
I look forward to more adventures in self mutilation.
Pan snorts "I'm ever so dreadfully sorry for disturbing your beauty sleep, your higness." and then heads off to the hangar.
Hangar go, debrief and equipment get get
"I AM IN A GIANT MOUTH! I AM TOO BUSY FOR SUCH MUNDANE ACTIONS RIGHT NOW! THESE TEETH ARE HORRIBLE MARINE! YOU NEED TO FLOSS MORE OFTEN!"
In between firing a few wristpad messages with Rookie to help organize the mission - choosing Auron to the part of the roster made him raise an eyebrow - Milno turned back to his locker in order to test something.
Touch Empyrea's club and have the sharkmist quickly consume a bit of it to see the consumption speed.
Then go to an airlock and try to create a long (4 feet), thin (thinner than a pencil) and rigid sharkmist tendril coming from an extended hand, slowly thickening the tendril and making it more flexible until it looks like a whip.
[1]
You ever microwaved a hotdog? You know how they sort of swell up and burst at the ends? Imagine milno's fingers doing that, and spraying out lumps of shark mist that then start eating the walls and floor.
