Tomato pancaek? Yick.
((It was the first colour I could find that wasn't already used and I could easily remember. I'll probably change later when I find an IC reason to, because it's not exactly the best colour. I'm kind of growing to like it, though))
"Faith? Can you hear me? Whatever you do, don't struggle against my hold on your arms. It's vitally important to my health that you keep your hands behind your back. It seems the possessor-banshee can't gain control when your hands are behind your back. Also, I kind of put you in a sphere of fam and debris. And more bad news, my brain is starting to hurt, so I can't keep this up much longer. We'll need to find a way to secure your hands behind your back, fast"
I was more making a joke that a tomato pancake would taste bad.
"Fuck. Alright, I don't know if you can hear this, but can someone open the hatch, or at least unlock it? I know I said not to, but just do it."
Keep knocking, and get out if the hatch opens. Charge an exo bonus.
Bang
"HELP"
Bang
"HLEP"
Bang
"HPEL"
Bang
"OPEN THE FUCKING HATCH!"

"Yeah. Got it. Damn it. Metal? Some kind of harness out of... barstools or car doors maybe?
Damn it."
Keep arms behind back at all costs, be prize ball egg thing.
You clasp your fingers together and try to make your shoulders touch. It's uncomfortable, but it's safe.
Carefully examine the goop thrower. Does it have any extra functions? Or just a "squirt" trigger?
Maybe it vibrates.
Yttra snorts.
There are no extra functions built in that I remember radio adding. If this is incorrect, someone kick my braincase and remind me.
And it does vibrate, but only when you're very cold.
Lerman waves to Faith.
"Hello, fellow teamkiller!"
Can I shoot through the floor with laser to the next level? If so, do so. Otherwise, scavenge weapons off of corpses.
You can try, I can't say if it will work or not.
What weapons? You were attacked by 3 mutants; one of which faith vaporized and the other of which is currently in faith. Or dead. Or something inbetween. Hard to say.
Prepare lunch for the hostages.
Not a lot of food around here. Unless you wanna order out using the computer.
Get out of APC and go back into diner radio faith and ask for instructions
Orders?
"Uh
Get a head count of everyone if you could. Everyone's dead or missing limbs, and I'm stuck in a ball so I can't count how much of a team we've got left. While you're at it, get an ETA from Steve on those police. This might turn messy real quick; I probably won't be able to handle them and Pancaek might be low on juice, so it could turn into a traditional firefight.
And see if Morul or Drusse are back. One went into the lower hatch alone, the other was messing with the hostages."
Um, we didn't take hostages here so I thought you should know that D'usse has probably disappeared and possibly taken other people hostage.
FOLLOW FAITH'S ORDERS
You run around, doing a quick head count in the APC and the building itself. While you're in the kitchen you let Morul out of the basement.
Dead: Hasala
Deadish: Kyle
Mangled: Jack, Pancaek, Lerman
Injured:Morul(?), Taddock
Seemingly ok: Faith, Yourself
Missing: D'usse
"Hey steve, got an ETA on the police"
>Tracking them. about 4-6 minutes depending on traffic and how eager they are. Armored van and several normal vehicles. Heat signatures indicate between 15 and 25 individuals, hard to say. You radio all this to Faith, and let her know about D'usse's hostage situation.
"Kay, just keep your hands behind your back, I'll dig you out and grab them and then we can both go and look for something to tie them up. You can help wiggle your way out when I've grabbed your hands. Do you feel any presence by the way? That possessor-banshee should still be inside of you."
Scuttle towards the foam ball, dig a hole to Faith's hands, then grab her hads together behind her back and release my amp-grip when I've grabbed them. Then use free hand to break up the rest of the foam ball, ask Faith to wiggle her legs or something to help with this.
After she is out, look for something sturdy to tie them behind her back and do so. Then look for the amp-studded club
With faith's help (and the de-gooper that Yttra helpfully volunteers) you mange to get faith free and then wrap her hands in successive layers of metal bars ripped from the cots. Individually they're pretty weak, but you cocoon her damn hands in them. It won't stop a serious effort to get free, but it should hold them against any accidental movement.
About 4 minutes remain till steve predicted the cops would show up.
