Turn 29Update Music.Locate my dragon, and move over to assist, kicking some buildings down. Use my speakers system to project maniacal laughter all over the city.
If I cannot locate my dragon, I'll simply keep bashing buildings until something interesting comes up.
I think maybe I should get a skill up for mindless destruction soon.
You look around for your half-dragon. PERCEPTION: [1] =
1; CRIT FAIL
You can't see him; where the hell is he?! All the smoke that you kicked up makes it impossible to see anything; you stumble around, searching for buildings... LUCK: [2] =
2But do not come across any.
You project maniacal laughter over the cube.
FFFFIIIIIIIIAAAAAHHHHH!
((Man, these strength rolls are terrible here. Not looking good.))
US-2497 seems to come out of its madness for a moment upon seeing Fumbles. "QUERY: FUMBLES? THANK SWIFFER! THIS THIEF--"
The brief moment of clarity leaves US-2497, however, just as quickly as it came. "Q:HERETOHELPKILL?YES?YES??GOODKILLKILLKILLKILLERHEREKILLMANYKILLGOODYESYES"
Shutdown all non-critical systems. Dump extra power to mopping. Mop.!
okay... that was... unexpected
Start slashing with ABSOLUTE DELIGHT
US-2497 shuts down all non-critical functions; a VERY risky move, but something that could give him some extra mopping power (DEX and IQ decrease by 1 [not permanent], as do several skills).

3US-2497 is simply too angry to notice, but his body isn't; it automatically rediverts energy to prevent his entire body from shutting down to power feedback (No longer rediverting energy).
US-2497 is tired.Also, Jack's knife is now lodged in US-2497's shoulder.

5Jack sees the cone coming, and jumps into the air, kicking off of US-2497, sending himself flying out of the way. As a result, US-2497 is also unharmed, and Jack has lost the knife.
yell at the book. "What do you want from me?"
The book whispers menacingly into your mind,
"WE FEED ON PAIN. BRING PAIN OR FEEL PAIN."You have an eerie feeling that the book isn't joking around. Weird.
"Oops."
Instruct the security droid to put down the salvaged monitor it's holding and to attack the spine devil while I hold back to defend my other companion.
Well shit.
Start firing at the devil in short bursts, making sure to not hit Erizen or my dog.

The security droid reacts slowly, gingerly putting down the monitor. The other droid doesn't react at all in time.
Face-off Sarvex, with a proper fighting game clashing sound. Fireball him while dodging his attacks.
Fanged smile. What a surprise!
HUGS! Add claws and tail for the good measure.
((Perhaps, mad hit rolls could add something to damage? US-2497 11 seems like he's poking only at vital spots of his opponent...))
