"...you guys see any good movies lately?"
"I"m getting pretty sick of this. D'usse, if you don't start getting those civilians out of there now, I'm shocking you.

If D'usse doesn't start extracting civilians this turn, have Steve shock her. Mild shock, not debilitating.

"Civilians? You mean that those people are.....OOOOH."

D'usse confronts the civvies. "Alright fuckers, let's go!"

Escort the civilians to the place where we're escorting civilians. Wherever that is

For the record, that means escorting civilians away from the diner, like down the street (preferably the one that doesn't have a hole in it).

((I really hope that destination is some sort of historical monument and not some kind of antimatter/Manipulator research centre.))

"Suspect incapacitated. Good job Yttra. Central, I need a drop off location."

Ask Steve the above. Throw one end of the rope I'm carrying thorough the hole.

"One of you, tie him up. Don't break the foam and do not touch him. Just tie him up real good like cattle. I'll pull him out of here."

Observe Faith. Observe sign. What is her destination? Does Steve know? Be ready to attack Morul/Headless. Keep telling headless he will not be harmed as long as he compiles.

EDIT: If headless is successfully tied, pull him out of the hole and airlift him up.


>Bring him to the APC. We'll get you all at once.


The sign reads "Hallbeck Radio Telescope array: 5 Km"

"Well. A startling display of competence has once again been overshadowed by idiocy. Good job team. So. I assume that blob is the guy you wanted me to dismember?"

The brain rest shall never stop. Try and figure out much amp juice I have.
You're starting to feel back to normal, not quite there yet, still a little agitated and nervous, but you could definitely get some brain work done if you needed to.


It's all a little too much for poor Yttra.

Sit down.


She looked at Yttra, who she didn't know at all.

What's going on here?
She doesn't respond. Maybe because of the flashbang? But surely she should have recovered by now?
You sit down.

This is been a very long day. This mission has only been going for- You check the time- like an hour and already half the people are dead, a city block has been destroyed, you've captured a headless man, and been shot.  You remember hearing about missions that lasted days, one that even lasted a year. How the hell did people survive that? You've got all of 60 minutes under your belt and you're about ready to collapse.

Feyri lowered her rifle and wondered.

Given the stories she heard about this place--amounted to mere hearsay and rumors--this was a sincere thing.

Hug Yttra.

Are you alright?
Feyri really is just den mother around here isn't she? Taking in all young'ins and emotionally fragile people and giving them hugs.

Quote
Didn't he lose his memory during that mission :P
((Yes he did, but we later told him what happened through dialog, so his character should know. Gonna assume he looked fine then?))

"Like going to the next level of the diner alone of course! What the hell were you thinking, going into hostile territory alone?"
"‘Hostile territory?’ I was *&^%ing going back to where i *&^%ing was 2 minutes ago. And it sure as *&^%ing %^&*worms didn't have a headless guy in it then. $#@!!"

"And you did so, without telling anyone what you were doing. That level wasn't secured, as shown by that headless cultist you've got there. You got lucky, though I'll also admit it was a very nice shot, but had you missed things could've turned out much worse. Next time, just try to tell someone of what you're going to do, ok? "

Quote
@Miyamoto: "I gave the order. It's not like I can do anything else about it, unless you want me to start shocking them or shooting them for not obeying it. I'd do it myself, but the building is already unstable and I'm afraid the battlesuit could cause a collapse."
"I know you won't like it, but yes Flint, if they outright ignore your orders for no good reason then you can consider shocking them. In a real military they'd get court martialed, and they'd be off much, much worse knowing the UWM."

"...you guys see any good movies lately?"
"I"m getting pretty sick of this. D'usse, if you don't start getting those civilians out of there now, I'm shocking you.

If D'usse doesn't start extracting civilians this turn, have Steve shock her. Mild shock, not debilitating.

Quote
"Suspect incapacitated. Good job Yttra. Central, I need a drop off location."
((Don't think Steve will want to send a shuttle down, since he answered this when I asked for a medivac:

Quote
In an emergency we could get a shuttle down, but lets try not to do that. Putting a shuttle down on the middle of the street is somewhat more obvious and slow then we'd like. Already did a hot drop, after all.


Ask Steve if there's military or anything like it incoming Ask for possible locations in that sewer where we could cut Faith off, assuming she's heading for the location that sign points to.

"Team, secure that level, find the key for opening that door, and get ready to move out. We'll leave as soon as Konrad and Taddok are here. Flint, I will consider sending someone after Faith once basement team gets back, no sooner. Need your firepower in case military shows up.

Feyri, why are you not with your team?"


>I have nothing near by yet, though I've been getting some excited chatter over the military band radios and communications I have ears on.  As per Faith, if she's going to where that sign leads, she'll not be able to reach it underground. The only sewer line that leads out there is about a foot tall, a single pipe. She should have to surface shortly before leaving the suburbs. However, from what I can tell, the sewers the underground team are in now more closely match the sewers in that suburb then they do the area under the diner. You way want to send a runner to give them a warning.


"Anyone want to help check the floor floor for more hostiles?"
Tie up the headless dude without breaking foam.  Go search the floor very carefully.  If no one else volunteers be even more careful.
You tie up the big block of foam and Pancaek drags it out the window and heads up to the roof with it.

Quote from: Piecewise.
Now, exactly what makes you think that those
boxes you're carrying are large enough to fit an
entire 6 foot tall human being? You're not carrying
coffins around, are you?
((i knew id forgotten something...))

break the dead guy's spine and dislocate his hips an shoulders then fold him up and stick him in a box whilst pretending hes a contortioninst.
You, rather unceremoniously, yank the guy off his throne and proceed to basically crush him into the box, closing the lid on him with some difficulty.  The noises a partially mummified corpse make when being folded into a small box are very unpleasant.

"...you guys see any good movies lately?"
"I"m getting pretty sick of this. D'usse, if you don't start getting those civilians out of there now, I'm shocking you.

If D'usse doesn't start extracting civilians this turn, have Steve shock her. Mild shock, not debilitating.

"Civilians? You mean that those people are.....OOOOH."

D'usse confronts the civvies. "Alright fuckers, let's go!"

Escort the civilians to the place where we're escorting civilians. Wherever that is
You get the civies out of the closet and herd them out of the building, into the street and the back over towards the direction the apc drove off in. You cut their bonds while giving them a shove in that general direction.

"Go, run free, shoo. Get moving mother fuckers, you see this street, you know shit gone down here and it will continue to go down here in the near future. If you don't want to be perforated then I suggest you scoot. Get gone. FUCKOFF NYAAAAN!~"

They jog off away from you, running down the street with bewildered and terrified looks on their faces.

Unless Renen gives other orders, keep looking for hostiles/booby traps/malfunctioning toasters from hell

Nothing, yet.

Yet.

Head into the diner, see what those guys are up to
Currently? Not much. IN fact, is there even anyone on the ground floor of the diner? Everyone is up on the second floor, hugging. OR kidnapping headless terrors. One or the other.








The men and women down in the basement hear something in the vague distance; the sound of splashing or rushing water. It's getting closer.

"Team, I need you to assemble at the first floor of the Diner. And I need someone to go down to the basement and warn them that Faith is coming.

Miyamoto, should I drop that guy off at the APC or leave him hanging around here? And do you want me to do anything about Faith?"

Go around moving in BT at BT speed, not at normal speed. Try to look arond for any traps or any enemy. Quickly go outside and send the video feed to Steve and Myia if Feyri didn't sent it. After Steve or Myia say something go back to the basement and get ready to fight what is comming to the basement.

Steve, Miya, that's what we found there at the basement. Should we take the body? It seems it may actually be powering the machines instead of the other way around.

>Probably. They're bad news. Very good at hiding and very good at killing. Then again, no one is better at killing then the HMRC.

((I thought it was automatically transmitted--the video anyway, when I left the..zone of exclusion? :X))

Look, please don't break down on me--we're in a dangerous situation and whomever attacked you, or otherwise Feyri looked at the body, needs to be detailed. If there are any other attackers around here, I need to know.

She let Flint's message echo towards the person.

And time seems to be running out. If there were any others who attacked you or this place, please do say so.

What?

"Yeah umm.…I think there was someone else. I didn't see em. They went back upstairs and shut the door."

Yttra points at the locked door to the next floor.

"If you look at the number of beds they were using– there's probably about 7 or 8 of them in total. I've seen 2. Or 3.

Yttra shudders, remembering the feeling of despair as her posessed commander swung her club, exploding limbs left and right.

"Oh and Morul said he killed one. Or two? Umm. Downstairs. In the basement."

Oh hey that was his name. Morul.

Yttra shakes her head, then suddenly turns to look at Feyri.

"Hey. The most dangerous ones here are your teammates. Even touching me was a bad idea. Bosslady touched that guy and then she went nuts. Now who knows where she is or what she's doing."

Wow, this girl's suit is so much better than mine.

It's got *&^%ing rockets on it!

"Leave him here, the APC is staying where it is in case shit happens over here again. It ought to be safe, it's in a secluded spot.

Team 3 should be able to handle it, and they have Pancaek to assist. Besides, you wouldn't fit anyways, and I doubt sending in more rookies would help. And I'm not sending in Morul, for obvious reasons."


Quote
Steve, Miya, that's what we found there at the basement. Should we take the body? It seems it may actually be powering the machines instead of the other way around.


"Sure, take it if you safely can. It seems Faith is coming for you though, so get down there now and tell the men to get ready for her. Disable her if possible, but do not hesitate to use lethal force if it seems necessary. Remember the arms-behind-back trick, or just go for the old loss-of-limbs trick. If you do get her restrained, maybe encase her arms in molten metal with the help of a manip, so her arms are welded to her back. Expect her to try and surprise or ambush you, so don't take chances and be prepared. I'll let you decide how you want you team to take her on, you know the lay-out better down there. Oh, and Renen, whatever you do, don't let her touch you. Do you think you could manage all that? Oh, and tell them to identify themselves once they come through that basement door again.


Now, orders for the rest of you. Firstly, D'usse, thank you lot for that. Great job. I want you, Konrad and Taddok to keep an eye on that basement door, shoot anything that comes through and doesn't identify itself immediately. Yes, even if it looks like a teammate.

Secondly, Flint, your team has permission to start sweeping the upper levels. Morul may help you, but keep an eye on him. At the first sight of trouble, have someone shoot him. Are you capable of organizing this endeavor?"


Quote
"Uhh, Miyamoto? If you've decided not to kill me, I can probably open that door. Or, you know, just kinda walk through it."
"So, uhhhh, you guys cool with me? Or is Flint gonna continue carrying me around like a robotic security blanket? Because I can be useful."
More brain rest.


"For the moment, you are allowed to help out team 2 sweep the upper levels of the diner. Be warned though, first sign of trouble or you acting weird, and you're toast. And we're gonna try getting through that door normally before resorting to space magic, but I'll keep it in mind."

Clearly running multiple missions at the same time is a terrible idea.  The epic battle to see which team can cock it up worse has escalated again.

And Larry kinda gets blueballed in all this; just left with a raging bone spear and no where to put it.

"Roger that, boss. Okay, you heard the boss. Through the hole, roboman."

Give Morul the keys if I can, then push him through the hole to the first floor.

Keep watching the drone. Is Faith going towards the suburbs or is she going towards that telescope?

Tie the other end of the rope somewhere so that headless is hanging over the alley near beside the diner.

"Don't worry, I won't leave you hanging."

EDIT: Oh, and does Steve know where that satelite dish in the roof is pointing towards? Or what that radio telescope is working on? What need does the UWM or this world in particular have for radio telescopes?
