Kate:>Check how gumdrops your totally awesome Magic girls-based webcomic is doing, Remember the state of your frog filled city house.

[pinkstar14]

Castor: >Look around for the computer. Remember placing it on the bed, so it can't be too far off.

[Doomblade187]

James: >Check room for SBURB. If not there, head out of your room and look in the kitchen- it's out there somewhere.

[mistertimn]

TURN TWO: Still startin' dis shit

Robby: > Bust a move

... You bust so many sick moves that your tire yourself out and have to sleep for a turn.

>Rodion: Don't give in to the napping impulse! Get the hell up and examine the goddamn room right the fuck now. This is prime-time. People are online. You must get up, find your shitty-ass computer with its shitty-ass satellite Internet and chat with the bastards or install some shit game to hold off your advancing mental instability, elsewise you'll flip the fuck out one day and your life will become exactly like John or Jack or whatever the fuck his name was Nance's in Eraserhead! And do you want that to happen? Do you want to watch inexplicable guts fall on puffy-cheeked girls while the catchiest song you ever heard plays in the background? Do you? DO YOU?

... You don't give in to the nap, and stand up and look around your room. Many half finished tasks litter the floor and everything else from when you fell victim to a sudden bout of tiredness while working on them. The curved outer wall of the research station holds a large window displaying the frozen wasteland outside. You walk over to your desk and sit down at your computer. Rummaging through the piles of crap, you extract the SBURB disc and stick in in the disc drive, pressing install.

Madison: >Take phone. Look for copy of SBURB in mailbox (but secretly make a bet with yourself your brother probably already has it, if it even came in the mail today). Also investigate room for things to weaponize should venturing into the basement prove necessary. There are... THINGS... down there. Other than Bro, that is.

... You place a bet, and shake hands with yourself to seal the deal. You venture out to the mailbox, but it has nothing inside expect some dust. Looking around, you notice the disc up on the roof, just out of reach. You brother must've put it there. Sighing, you go back inside to see what you can weaponize for the now imminent trip to the basement. Sadly, all you find is a basketball which you allocate to your specibus in the BALLSKIND abstractus.

Kate:>Check how gumdrops your totally awesome Magic girls-based webcomic is doing, Remember the state of your frog filled city house.

... You try to log on to your website to check out your comic, but sadly it's servers have become overloaded with fans eagerly reading your latest issue, and you can't access it. You also fail to remember the copious amount of frogs you own, and trip over one, landing face first on the flop.

Castor: >Look around for the computer. Remember placing it on the bed, so it can't be too far off.

... You see your computer on your bed, and sit down and open it up. It's shut down though, and the damn thing takes a whole turn to boot up

James: >Check room for SBURB. If not there, head out of your room and look in the kitchen- it's out there somewhere.

... SBURB is not in your room, nor is it in the kitchen. You must've left it somewhere else.

[Harry Baldman]

>Rodion: There. That's better. Now, you must have a particularly deadly-looking piece of surrealist sculpture lying around. Pick it up and weaponize the thing. You never know when those gnomes might come again. Or your mother.

[scapheap]

>Kate:Servers down? This will not do! Fix them! Stoked Pox, one of your pet frogs like a bad guy from one of those spy movies your dad is always watching.

[SeriousConcentrate]

>Madison: Dribble the ball a bit to work off some nervous energy, then head down to the basement to confront Bro. Maybe he has some secret form of roof access you're not aware of. Either way, you need that disc; your friends are probably waiting on you!

[Doomblade187]

James: >Check the living room for the disc. You want to install it already.

[anailater]

Robby: Have mad dreams.

[pinkstar14]

TURN 3: Weaponization

>Rodion: There. That's better. Now, you must have a particularly deadly-looking piece of surrealist sculpture lying around. Pick it up and weaponize the thing. You never know when those gnomes might come again. Or your mother.

... You decide to assign something to your strife specibus, considering how much Maddie has been nagging you to do so. Something about freeing stuff up in your sylladex? Whatever. You grab what looks to be a Model of a space blaster ray gun or something, and fiddle with the specibus. You pop the sculpture in, and the green and black device scans for a few seconds, beeps, and some text scrolls at the bottom. Apparently that gave you...

BLASTERKIND?

Huh. You guess that that sculpture was the real thing. Seems like a good enough specibus. You stick in in your portfolio, as well as equipping it, and spin the blaster on your finger, letting loose a shot and accidentally incinerating your Eraserhead poster. Eh. It wasn't exactly your favourite movie, to be honest.

>Kate:Servers down? This will not do! Fix them! Stoked Pox, one of your pet frogs like a bad guy from one of those spy movies your dad is always watching.

... You pick up Pox, or...who you THINK is Pox, and act like that one guy from that one movie. You know, the one with the cat? Yeah, that one. You practice your menacing chair spin for a few minutes, and before long, the servers sem to be up again, seeing as bright colours and strange outfits litter your computer screen.

>Madison: Dribble the ball a bit to work off some nervous energy, then head down to the basement to confront Bro. Maybe he has some secret form of roof access you're not aware of. Either way, you need that disc; your friends are probably waiting on you!

... You imagine yourself up a whole basketball team to play against, and get to work PWNing all of them. You dribble past #25! Past #36! EVEN #51! By the time you make the winning basket, you've jogged the perimeter of the compound twice. You feel incredibly invigorated (+1 to attacks for the next three turns), and throw open your front door, and barge downstairs to yell at your brother. To your surprise, he's not there. However, it seems he already retrieved your Sburb discs for you. You swipe them up, and begin to head upstairs, when...
... Absolutely nothing happens. Oh well, off to your room again.

James: >Check the living room for the disc. You want to install it already.

... Hm. Nothing here but your lizard, Iggy. He seems to be sleeping. Wouldn't want to bother him, would you?

Robby: Have mad dreams.

... Man, those dreams are badass. You're riding a motorcycle made of cheetos, steering with your feet, while juggling chainsaws and hot chicks. If only you were that talented in real life. Your disappointment wakes you up suddenly, and you remember that you should be installing Sburb soon!

Castor: >Boot up computer whilst complaining about booting up computer.

... Ugh. Man, your computer sucks. You've been thinking of getting a new one, and are too tired out from complaining about it to complain any more. Frustrated with how long it's taking for it to boot up, you smack the screen.

sacraficialValedictorian[SV]'s computer blew up.

You're now on your back, and are quite RATTLED(50% chance of -1 to rolls) from the explosion. Maybe even a bit charred. And now you have to find another computer. Maybe your grandfather will let you use his. It's probably worse than yours, but it's still a computer.

[Harry Baldman]

Rodion: >Okay, that just happened. Unless it didn't. Still, run that Sburb shit. See what's what with the damn thing. Check the manual if there is one. If not, I'm confident you'll figure something out.

Robby:> Retrive Sburb from chest, Install.

LD: Hey
LD: Madddison you there

[Doomblade187]

Step away from the lizard. No need to have him sneaking around. Maybe... Maybe SBURB's in the gun vault? Your dad was never really enthusiastic about it. But you need the keys- get the keys from the office and look in the gun vault.
