Take the panel

[~Neri]

Back away from the thing slowly.

[Cptn Kaladin Anrizlokum]

Take the panel

And throw some rocks at it. Nothing could go wrong, right?

[Lyeos]

Obviously it's a friendly giant robot.
Examine the panel, actually.

[Parsely]

Workin' on the turn as we speak.

E: *falls asleep*

[Parsely]

You back off as quietly as possible, not taking your eyes off of the massive, still form of.. Whatever that is. You almost trip over the small hunk of metal left abandoned on the floor.



You give it a closer look.



You thought it was some kind of control panel that had fallen from the wall, judging by how flat it is, but it looks more like some kind of handheld computer, not that you've ever seen one before. There are three different colored buttons on the face and a small monochromatic display covered by solid glass (or something like it).

You flip it over, and find two small compartments which you can prize open with your fingers.



Inside one is a small, distinctive connector. Within the other is a bank of 8 jacks. There are three removable plugs inserted into the jacks, on the end of each is a colored contact: one red, one blue, and one yellow. You've a mind to try connecting some of those wires to the contacts, if you could find a safe way to do that without electrocuting yourself.

Take the handheld computer, and go left.

[Xanmyral]

Leftward ho!

[mastahcheese]

Leftward ho!

[Parsely]

As you approach the darkened tunnel you're surprised to see a light flickering in the distance! Perhaps because of this you notice how abruptly the hallways ends. The dirt turns to some kind of hard, featureless plastic bulkhead. To you it's as if someone took two oddly shaped puzzle pieces and forced them together.

The hallway ahead emits an alien atmosphere that repels you. You can't help but hesitate to go in there.. You can see a rough metal door doorway surrounded by a striped red railing, and beside the door can be seen some kind of wall box. Perhaps inside are the controls for the door.

((The transition is kind of ridiculous but it's there for a very good reason: McKenzie's pants are the same color as the dirt, so while I intended for this upcoming hallway to be all crumbly and dirty, he can't stand on dirt without blending in super hard.))

[mastahcheese]

Approach the Wall Box and inspect it closer. Open if possible.

...Hmm...

Hold breath before approaching.

[Parsely]

Will try to make the decisions a bit tougher in the future. :<

Turn will be up soon.

[Parsely]

You approach the box, a mounted case made of thin metal. The exterior facing is smooth and featureless so you feel around the edge until you find a hold. You give it a good tug.



There's a pop and the hinges squeak as you ease the facing open.




There's a stripe painted panel behind it. You see some small lettering which you struggle to make out in the dim, flickering light cast by the lamp above the nearby door. You're not sure what it means. Below that is a small male plug attached to the wall. It looks familiar.
