Is it physically possible to kill tge lurker in the angles or even just give it the boot from our reality?

Would such outcomes be limited to use of the godzilla threshold?

To be honest, I believe we're well-past Godzilla treshold at this point. See: M23.
(Oh, of course, the M23 team decided against rampant callous genocide, but it was very well considered. Meaning they've passed the threshold, and so has, by extension, ER(verse) as a whole.)

Wouldn't the godzilla threshold in this case be tearing a hole into the lurkers reality and banging pots and pans together until the lurkers natural predator comes to shut us up?

what does M23 have to do with the godzilla threshold?

Unleashing a godzilla on to the unsuspecting stack would not do make the situation (noticeably) worse and could be considered a potentially sound tactic to cover the retreat/divert attention? But yeah, I was speaking more of a literal definition of crossing the godzilla threshold (which can always, of course, be scaled to match the matter at hand - in case of Lurker in the Angles, I guess, it would be summoning a Star-Godzilla to, indeed, tear him a new one - I wouldn't bet on Lurker-predators existing, but something ought to exist that can do the job).


Hey, how about creating a brand-new, upgraded strain of Altered and unleashing them on the Lurker? Attazerg!

((Okay, can we just jump past this or what?))
((*pokes thread*))

Dude... that isn't how it works.
This ain't some freeform RP, if you're waiting on the GM to resolve an action, you wait. The threads get updated incredibly regularly considering how many of them there are.

Meanwhile I'm waiting to see if I manage to prevent my brain from being stolen or not...

Frozen parody Let It Burn is strangely appropriate for Mission 21. From quite many perspectives.

1st verse: Lurker in the angles about its own dimension, though last line applies for Maurice. Kinda.
2nd verse: Somewhat fits for any HMRC convict in a way.
Chorus: Self evident.
3rd piece: Lovely
4th piece: Lurker in the angles, but also every amp user ever.
Chorus: Lurker breaking free.
5th piece: Lurker about eating our universe and use of amps attracting its attention.
Chorus: Yep.

Ahah, good find, that is strangely appropriate.

Here's the lyrics for those who can't view the video:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

The flame burns bright on the mountain tonight
And the sparks fly in between
A kingdom of desolation
And it looks like I'm the queen
The ashes dying like this burning rage inside
The loss of love, the loss of life

Don't let it hurt, don't make them cry
Control yourself or else the flames will die
Extinguish all your faults in turn
When will you learn?

Let them burn, let them burn
They're no longer my concern
Let it burn, let it burn
The old life that I spurned
I don't care, what I'm going to need
Let the fire rage on
The flames never seemed to bother me.

It's funny how inferno makes everything look bright
And the fear that once controlled me, set everything alight

It's time to see what I can do,
to test the limits and break through.
No right, no wrong, no rules for me
I'm free!

Let them burn, let them burn!
See my flames across the sky!
Let it burn, let it burn.
My flames will never die.
I will stand, and I won't run away.
Let the heat roll on.

My power surges through the air and all around.
My soul's the engine that will burn this whole world to the ground!
And one thought sparks ignition of my vengeful wrath!
I'm never going back, the future's all I have!

Let them burn, let them burn!
Raining down Armageddon,
Let them burn, let them burn!
Their precious world is gone!
I wont care, that they're going to scream!
Let the fire rage on.
Flames never seemed to bother me.

I appreciate you sharing complete lyrics, not because I can't watch the video, but rather because I can't stand the performance in the video. Really, dude, you're singing about incinerating stuff after you're done holding out on it, put some emotion into your words.

Also, Elsa in red colours and with flames looks strangely better than original, IMHO.

In that case, Final Countdown is the best way to describe end-M21 ascent, possibly narrated by Maurice.

(First verse is the ascent, second verse is ... self-evident, and third verse is about going home (Hephaestus or the Sword) and/or being picked up by rescue teams. Oh, and chorus is, well, about the closing moments of M21 - the ascent countdown, bombs falling countdown and alien doom countdown, of course. Even the final sounds (weird, repeating anomalous echo) fit the story of going into Limbo!..
It also somewhat fits any end-mission hot-ascent, I guess, but by virtue of second verse and extended rescue wait time, I think M21 fits best so far. I freely admit I am biased, though.

And, oh dear, does the second verse fit!..)

Spoiler: Lyrics, FYC (click to show/hide)

We're leaving together
But still it's farewell
And maybe we'll come back
To earth, who can tell?

I guess there is no one to blame
We're leaving ground
(Leaving ground)
Will things ever be the same again?..

<Chorus:>
It's the final countdown!
(The final countdown.)

We're heading for Venus and still we stand tall
'Cause maybe they've seen us and will kill us all, yeah
With so many light years to go and things to be found
(To be found)
I'm sure that we'll all miss her so

<Chorus, chorus, chorus.>

P.S. On a second thought, definitely heading for the Sword. Because a ship is always referred to by female pronouns in English.

[Radio Controlled]

And, oh dear, does the second verse fit!..)

Hmm...

I guess there is no one to blame

HMM.

Final Countdown

That is fitting too. More so than Frozen parody, actually.

How 'bout we launch something like Einsteinian Roulette OST? Say, a wiki page with mission subsections where people share the songs most appropriate for the said mission? That'd be fun.

Probably wouldn't be an OST, unless there's some heretofore undisplayed musical talent around these parts.

Yes, the OST is the wrong term. But you get the idea.

"Describe a mission with a single song" challenge?

"Describe a mission with a single song" challenge?

M5:  The roof, the roof, the roof is on fire...

Works that way too.


I'm really worried we won't hear from PW at the very least till the end of the week because Fallout 4 at this point.

Pancaek clarified that one nevermind.
