Quote from: Pesterchum
SL: I believe I should tell you that I'm about to die.
SL: If you hear any reports of a massive crater where once was the state of Nevada, that was me.
SL: If you aren't hit with the fallout, of course.
SL: That's pretty much it. I have a call or two to make, I guess.
SL: If you haven't picked up on it, it's a giant meteor.
SL: I'm sorry that we'll never be able to play the game. From what this window shows it looks pretty good.
SL: I should probably talk to him too.

PS: What?
PS: I find that hard to believe.
SL: I also found it hard to believe this jackass was spying on me and can teleport.
SL: We've been over this.
SL: Weird shit is happening. End of story.
SL: also said guy pestered my a tiny bit a few seconds ago. Apparently I'm 'integral' to who gives a fuck.
SL: You never got around to connecting to me by the way.
SL: I even connected to some other schmuck in the interm.
SL: Though I suppose it doesn't matter?

Jonathan ran after the bird, but stopped once it left the room. He'd have to think of something... Feeling fustrated by the fact that he'd have to catch a bird, he would need to do sooo much running. Shaking his head, he went to punch one of the machines, in this case, the machine was the cruxtruder, and the fist squarely hit the lid..

Hit the top of the cruxtruder accidentally, but still surprisingly hard!

You whop the lid squarely with your fist and it pops open. A bright-green sprite pops out.

>ACHIM: Fan the old Youtube flamewar?
Woah, one thing at a time. The cast iron faction can wait, you have a game to play!

>ACHIM: Take the Dowel to the Alchimiter!
This time it should be the right contraption, shouldn't it?

Upon placing the dowel on the Alchemiter and waiting through the flash of light, you see a translucent green CRUXITE PEN & JOURNAL left behind. The journal is current closed.



You hear a beeping noise. It looks like someone's trying really hard to pester you.

You find a good hiding spot. A figure with a large, hooded, brown cloak covering his entire body walks in.

[Unarmed Combat (Fair) +1 vs. Escape Artist (Good) +2] You take a good swing but the dude spins around on his feet and nimbly backs into the opposite wall. He pulls out what initially looks like a walking stick from his robe. Upon closer inspection, though, it has a thin barrel on the end.



He still doesn't shut up.

SL: Though I suppose it doesn't matter?
PS: Yeah, weird shit does indeed happen, but don't you think the news would be all over the fact that a giant fucking meteor was headed straight for Nevada?
PS: Believe me, I keep quite a keen eye on the news.
PS: If you are telling the truth, then my advice is to run like the goddamned wind.
PS: If you have a car, drive. Just...I don't know.
PS: Also, I already have a client player. I now need a server player, but it looks like you messed that up.
PS: That's beside the point, though. Get the fuck out and take anything you find important with you.

starboundLogicbomb Ceased Pestering pseudoSkeptic

Sirius stared at his screen for a time.

He noticed a different window.

A rough scheduled for the next five minutes formed.

If all rational hopes are exhausted, sometimes you have to look at what you have, check the facts, make wild and irrational jumps in logic... and hope.

Retrieve special bottle.

[Unarmed Combat (Fair) -1 vs. Escape Artist (Good) -1] GM INTERRUPT! Would you like to tag "I am NOT a boy!" [] for a +2 or reroll?

TB: Connect again.

>Andrew: What he said.

((I'm not a hundred percent sure what you guys are trying to do, but I'm assuming just have Jack serve Andrew.))

Jack runs the SUBURB server on his other machine and near-instantly sees Andrew pop up on its screen. Nothing went wrong, fortunately.

Now it only seems SL needs a server.

Retrieve special bottle.

BLUH

Nah, actually this is delicious.

((No problem, in-thread works just as well.))

By the time you get to your computer it seems your pesterer has already absconded. Looks like he sent you some offline messages.

Sirius sips the old bottle and pokes his head out a window. There is a faint light in the sky.

He sits back at his computer, and stares intently at a screen.

He switches the disks.
