[Xantalos]

Don't worry, now that Steve knows about the thing, he'll probably call for evac.

[kj1225]

Thankfully, getting shot in the gut isn't a slow death.

Unfortunately getting shot in the gut hurt and I think I'm going to figure out a weapon I can stick there.

[tryrar]

Oh, btw I think I know what that title for mission 15 is referencing. This Penny Arcade strip!

[Parisbre56]

((Someone should contact Steve and let him see the feed from your helmet cameras.))

((On it boss man. ))
Contact Steve and let him watch what's happening from my helmet camera.

Don't worry, now that Steve knows about the thing, he'll probably call for evac.

I imagine Steve with his synthflesh body, standing in the rec room, grabbing some pop corn and watching the disaster unfold.

[Yoink]

Thankfully, getting shot in the gut isn't a slow death.

Hey now, a gut-shot is pretty much the classic "slow death", I'm pretty sure!
Also: Welp. Someone decided it was a good idea to keep the horrifying abomination on the team, now we're gonna suffer for it.
This is why the UWM has its policies on gene-shifting or whatever, no doubt...

[Xantalos]

No, this is because of the armoury's policy of having crappy resale prices causing cheapskate Xan to forego a decomp.

[Parisbre56]

With your luck, this probably would had happened even if you had one of the low tier ones.

[Xantalos]

Would've had the second tier one, but yeah it probably would've happened. 90% of my rolls have been 6s ever since I got my amp.

[IronyOwl]

Jobasio sat for a moment as the various half-intelligible screams came through his comms.
Then he sighs. He doesn't seem overly surprised by this turn of events, somehow, as he reaches for the ignition.
He grimly starts up the engine, unbuckles his seatbelt and then grabs his rifle and shoves open the door of the APC.
"What... exactly have you done, dare I ask?" His voice is full of weary resignation, touched with a tasty dash of acid sarcasm.

Oh man, this is awesome. I'll bet waiting around in touch with the HMRC/ARM is like playing some kind of hands-off hybrid of Dwarf Fortress and X-COM.

Alpha Squad has entered Room 1!
Alpha Squad has entered Room 2!
Alpha Squad has entered Room 3!
Cpl. Smith has begun screaming in terror!
Pvt. Johnson has begun screaming in terror!
Pvt. Brown has begun screaming in terror!
Pvt. Ellis has begun screaming in terror!
Pvt. Ellis has panicked!
Lost communications with Pvt. O'Reilly!
An explosion rocks Room 3!
An explosion rocks Room 3!
An explosion rocks Room 3!
Pvt. Johnson is requesting medical attention!
Pvt. Brown has calmed down.

I imagine Steve with his synthflesh body, standing in the rec room, grabbing some pop corn and watching the disaster unfold.

This would also explain so much about Steve. At some point you'd pretty much have to either throw in the towel or decide these incompetent lunatics are amusing and awesome in their own way.

[yobbo]

@kj1225 hey you said you did actually buy a medkit, right? When did you get it?

Not that i think it will help in the slightest, but…

What's that space-accountant doing anyway

[kj1225]

I never said medkit.

I have pills to help not dying and my guy had medical skill though.

[yobbo]

ahh okay. maybe i'll try to rip some of the hostages' shirts up and use them to tie the guts back inside. Hmm.

[Kriellya]

((Oh. That went so much more wrong than I could have imagined.
...
Kriella, you online?))

Yeah, I'm here, what's up? I've got my finger on the button. Not sure it's an incident yet...

Okay, who am I kidding. *tick*

[kj1225]

Just get the evac. The guts dry out and it will be bad.

[Parisbre56]

"Xan? What the EVERLOVING FUCK have you done?"

I know microwave manipulators are dangerous. And this might be construed as fighting fire with fire. But I have to try something, at least. Back away from StacyXan, as well as the firing corridors being used by teammates and, using my microwave manipulator, heat the middle 3 feet of StacyXan's body to the point where it melts/vaporizes/bursts into flame.

NOOOO! Freeze him! Then you can sell him to the doctor as food!
Haven't you people ever watched Alien? Trying to capture the monster for profit never goes wrong.
