I have attained the magic of limited internet acsess.

What's up with y'all? Anything big happened yet? Get into more debates about trivial drivel and all that shit?

Think Xan can use his dynamic bonus to change into a flying creature and snatch one of our hapless comrades out of the air?

No. I suppose there are similarities, but I'm fairly certain angry birds doesn't let me charge into a battalion of knights with a car made of circular saws.

Nope. I'd still have to get out of my Mk. I, change into the creature without overshooting and turning into a giant wing, swoop down, and then catch someone without fucking up and crashing into the wall. Too dangerous.
Also Xan's a pragmatic coward.

Eh, SNAFU is a more appropriate term in this case; The situation could be quite repairable.  Just a mere fall is unlikely to permakill anyone, and Mesk can retrieve the heads pretty easily.  There could be something that eats brains, I guess, but we don't know for sure, so it isn't FUBAR yet.

And before someone says that there's a limit to how long a brain can last dead, I'd like to point out that we've never ever ever had a permadeath because of that.

Yeah, it's only 5 hours in normal temps, and it's cold as hell here so we can preserve them longer.

That's how brains work.

Only because Charro got run over again.


Xan is correct that the cutoff time is probably higher here.

HMR stands for Hazardous Materials Requisition, not Horrible Massive Ruination, though I can understand how one could get confused.

It isn't as cold as mission one, which is where the time limit was first mentioned for Jim.  I think that was even the same time we got given the "5 hour" limit.  Regardless, I thought you guys were going to be staying for awhile- days, possibly.  And even if the time limit is slow, Steve probably wouldn't have much issue with sending in a shuttle to pick up the brains.

True. Or I could incubate them within myself; I can do that, I think.

Anything that involves the phrase 'incubate within myself' is a bad idea.

Or if I can eat their bodies, I can reconstruct them and deposit their brains in those bodies.
I might actually do this.

....I'm sorry, but what you said appears to be a complete sentence, but the words in that configuration causes my brain to not be able to process them in that order.

Someone fill me in: how did Xan turn into some renegade Umbrella Corp mutant again?

I'm sorry, I can't hear you over the sound of Xan's medical career beginning.

I got my head shot off my a Shadow Walker, blew up a ship with my mind before I died, and then the Doc revived me and I asked for it, so he did it because it was interesting to him.

So you blew up a ship with your mind while missing your head?

No, while missing my body. My head got shot off my body, and because I had an amp, I blew up a ship that the guy might've been hiding on before I passed out.
