[Nunzillor]

Tek, noticing a distinct lack of explosion, stops running.  He looks back and sees Morul, unharmed, next to the alien-possessed teammate.  He takes a few breaths, collects himself as best as he is able, and speaks into the comms.

"Uh... maybe that was a bit of an overreaction?  The Eater does not seem like it is about to explode or attack...  Tek suggests we give it five minutes and then keep the host hot and continue with the mission.

Check if it still passively understands and follows simple commands like 'forward' or 'follow' or 'stop scaring the shit out of us.'"

[NAV]

"Imma try something."

Mine out a chunk of land under Dern for transport. It's worked for other anomalies.
Stop if I get burned, or if Dern reacts negatively, or if teammates seem angry.

[Harry Baldman]

Watch the area around me. Have a smoke. Be chill.

"I don't think that's a good idea. I mean, do you see how hot it is? You'll fry, even through the suit. I say we keep an eye on it, and wait until either it changes, or morning comes. Everyone just keep a look out for anything else that might stop by and say hello. Assume anything approaching us is hostile, but wait for a visual just to make sure it's not human. The locals should all be to scared to come see what we're doing, but there could be a really thick one out there."

Guard the Host, and make sure nobody gets too close to it. Don't get any closer to it myself.

[Knight Otu]

"Stay vigilant. Apparently this whole ordeal increased the heat of... of the host, so don't take its calm for granted. If the host still follows, then all the better. If not, we need to figure out what to do next."

Oppose.

Tend to the fires. Make sure our laser heatray people are on task and on Derm.

[Kedly]

"Guys, I don't know if heat is going to work anymore. We certainly can't heat it more than it is currently heating itself at this point"

Might be true, but what else can we do?

[Beirus]

"We're just watching it now? Fantastic, since I suggested that like ten minutes ago."

Maintain exo bonus.

[Corsair]

"Host has a new person now so we can still deal with it"

Hey I think that is a new host we should keep it warm

due to lack of explosions approach warily then build a chemical fire large enough to last until morning, then wait until morning

[NAV]

I'm scouting ahead. It's better than standing here doing nothing.

Scout ahead. Make sure the path ahead is safe. Look for anything interesting.
Keep my number gun at the ready and charge a con bonus.

[Nunzillor]

Tek tries to get some sleep until morning.

[Kedly]

"I'll lend my heat gun to anyone who wants to get close, but I'd like to wait a bit longer before I assume it's safe to be close enough to heat that thing again"

[kisame12794]

Really? You think this is a new host? Why, I think you're right! Of course it's a new host. And, seriously, I think it's doing a great job of heating itself, but you know, maybe I'm not the best judge of that.

[sambojin]

Sambo keeps watch for any hostile activity, and readies his laser rifle again in place of his gauss rifle. He lowers the diffusion on it a notch, ups the power a notch, and keeps his distance from the Eater (60% power, high/medium diffusion).

"If any scary shit happens before dawn, I'll keep Dern heated up with me laser. I've cranked this thing up a bit, so stay out of the sodding way. It might not do much to to toasty-boy here, but it'll make your pubes a fuckload curlier if you catch a decent blast of it. I don't know if this hunk of junk generator can keep going at that spec, but it might give us a bit of 'run-like-fuck' time.

Anyone notice that this damn thing keeps getting hotter each time it jumps into some other poor bastard? Wonder if more heat's the answer or less? Fuck it, more is always better."
