omgwtfRUN! RUNRUNRUNRUNRUN!
I do not take the time to type out a wristpad message, but instead yowl, loudly, into the mic a couple times as i run for my life from the trap/supersnake.
You spin on your little kitty heels and run off parallel to the "cave" mouth before running back towards the team. You try to ignore all the noise and rumbling behind you.
get her and then protect the wounded and the digger, ulrich, nooooooooooooooo! ((long dramatic no)))!
drag any wounded not in the jeep to be jeep and protect the wounded, drag lurid (ashimo's) back to the jeep
Yeah yeah yeah, back to the jeep they all go. Bigger problems coming.
"Whatever it is, it sounds unpleasant."
Ready monomachte.
You hold your monomachete in front of you and wave it around. Seems pretty ready.

- Get to the jeep and grab some ropes people, as Zoltan says. I'll meet you at Lyra's position.
Rocket off to the skies and get to Lyra ASAP. Assist her in getting on the NOPE express from Teethyhole to Fuckthatville, if she needs any assistance, that is.
You make it down to the same square as Lyra and land next to her. You don't quite have enough time to do anything else though.
Oh, great. I think I've seen this movie. There was a giant spaceworm in that asteroid's cave.
The thing could be preparing to drop the ceiling or start thrashing about, moving north. And being down there while it does so would be bad.
Well, I can stay here, keep things hot. I can even run away, in case whatever happens causes the cave to collapse and trap me.
But come on. Was running away ever really an option? I can't run away. I can't stop until I finish this and the others are safe or I am dead. And when has the danger of death stopped me before?
So the only choice I have is to go in.
Get in the cave. Now! Laser the floor, punch the floor, kinamp punch the floor, whatever, I don't care, whatever is quicker. Then move towards the brain as quickly as possible.
Be ready to act. Maybe stab a metal pole on the ground to hold on to it if the thing starts moving or kinamp punch the the sky if it starts collapsing on me or melt it with red beam if it would be easier. Generally try to react to whatever happens in the best way possible.
If I see the brain and I think I can make the shot, then cut that sucker free of all the nerves connected to it.
Maybe say an appropriate one liner.
Let's let the lava in. The clowns are awake and waiting.
You Smash your way into the camber. The cave itself is quite large but is almost entirely taken up by the worm inside it. And here's the odd thing: There's no brain in here, at least none that is easily visible. Instead, the nerves all converge on the worm itself, growing into its flesh. Or at least they used to be growing into its flesh, now they're all tearing away as it starts to rumble forward like an angry subway train. As it pulls away you see that a lot of this section of the body is covered in torn nerve endings, rather then them all converging on a single section of the body.
((I highly doubt the pimp bracelet will let you go as fast as Yaroslav's HRB. Not to mention the HRB's flight doesn't normally require a roll, while using that pimp bracelet at all, does.))
Make sure all the corpses, half-corpses, and severed body parts of non-permadead characters are in the jeep. Then keep an eye out for any more danger.
Has my Sharksuit regenerated the chest hole fully?
EDIT:
Carefully drive the jeep wherever I am directed to or otherwise head back towards the original drop point or somewhere able to be considered "safe". If not driving control pawn, if attacked shoot the thing, if thing not dead shoot it more.
Eh. Let's go 1 tile NW, for now.
Everyone is piled in like firewood, your chest has regen'd and you drive one square northwest as the earthquakes get more intense.
"Welcome everyone to the express jeep ride to fuckthatville please keep arms and legs inside the vehicle at all times ready to operate all of the dangerous weapons that you have"

I dunno who is driving so we'll just say you are. Maybe.
Off to the north, where Lyra was a few moments ago, what looks like a giant earthworm raises itself a good 15-20 meters into the air and starts looking around.
Uh huh.
