((Great. My plan worked. Less people to bribe.

I'm assuming that the shocking includes people in this shuttle only.))

"Now that all noise is gone dear Pilot, what would you say about 4 tokens to go grab Xan's brain for me right now?"

"I got a message a few minutes ago in response to a request I made to Hephaestus. The Doctor wants his brain for an experiment. Just got to drop it off at the infirmary and the nurses there will take care of the rest. And, if all goes well, give us something very useful in return."


Err... Ok. I guess.

Go pick up Xan.

"Excellent! Excellent decision my boy."

"You are doing a great service to the ARMy and to Science. And to a fellow human being. Saving a life is always important. We must not forget our humanity and altruism in this war. After all, altruism is the whole reason this retrieval is happening."

"Just keep your cool, do this smoothly and bring him home and it'll be the easiest tokens you've ever made."

"We'll talk more once you get back. Unless there's something you want to ask right now?"

Ugh. Dream happy dreams of helping Science and getting paid, which I won't be able to do thanks to idiot teammates.
And Steve, blame that guy too. What a jerk.

Did Miya get shocked? If yes, did this unleash the avatar? If not, why not?

Any reason snapdragon's shuttle can't get Xan? Beyond 'because drama llama' that is.

Also, just fyi, I think the Heabi brain should still be protected by the avatar cloak.


((Retroactive rping hoo!))

"Speaker, identify yourself in clear wording, stating your full name and ARM rank, if not I'm throwing you off the channel."
Flint took on a British accent.
"It is I! Arrthur! King of the Brritons! Dost thou not rrecogniseth mine voice?"
"I mean, really, you'd think that after spending a year stuck on an alien death world with someone you'd learn to recognize their voice."
Flint continued normally with mock hurt pride.

"It must be because you're such a good actor, no doubt!

But seriously, you are joking right? This shuttle is a light breeze away from total destruction, and we have more than 15 souls on board, as well as an extremely important Heabi brain sample. Putting all that on the line, and for what? Hell, is there any reason your shuttle can't do it?"

Think about it this way: how do you sleep at nights while in the avatar? Why did the avatar not go crazy when the Haebi cut you off from it? Obviously, it is not necessary for you to be awake to maintain control. Just connected. I've written more about I it in the OOC thread, but it probably means controlling the avatar is not entirely conscious but must partly rely on some unconscious process.

"Are you sure? Because from what I see here, you just have some minor engine damage. Some tiny holes in the hull but no damage to hydraulics or electronics... or anything else that is important, really. Should be fine for space flight. Just don't drive through any planets."

"As for why... I remember you risking your life for a much slimmer chance to save another. Are you saying that a much safer rescue operation is out of the question now? That his life is somehow worth less? Why is that? You literally have nothing to lose. It's just a small detour. Completely safe."


Quote
"Hell, is there any reason your shuttle can't do it?"
"I have no idea. The universe seems to want this shuttle to rescue him for some reason." ((I have no IC idea why we can't or why you can't deliver the brain and then go back, so I can't respond to that reasonably. The nukes did explode closer to you, so maybe it's because you're closer and he'll be too far away to reach if we wait too long?))

Try and wake up if possible.  Otherwise, be an angrily unconscious floor-lump.  Dream of shuttles breaking into pieces.

I just had a funny thought. Who's gonna get Xan into the ship? The only person alive is the pilot, and Xan is whipping through space at hundreds of miles per hour, if memory serves.

You're still alive, just unconscious. I suppose matching orbital velocity with Xan shouldn't be difficult.

I just get slightly ahead of him, open the rear hatch, slow down slightly so he flies into the shuttle, close the hatch and return to the Sword.

>Good choice. I think we have something that might actually make good use of him, for once. Take the following coordinates, we'll cover your escape.





AND THEN YOU GUYS GOT XAN AND EVERYTHING WAS LOVELY FOREVER.

Don't penalize Flint or the Pilot. I've got ulterior motives guiding them.
