Spontaneously learn "Verbally Terrify Skeleton" from your new-found experience in the matter.
From your experience in this scuffle, you have learned a new spell:
Rebuke Undead!
Spook the spookies back!
Call [Clodhopper] in there instead
Clodhopper hears you call for him and shoots his way back towards you. You duck your head and cover your ears as it's a pretty dangerous form of transportation. Flying's not the safest way to travel after all it seems.
Looks like the gun's battery is nearly dead anyways. Aw well, a tiny jetpack might be a bit more socially acceptable than a live firing hovering gun shooting bystanders everywhere you go.
Alright, take back Clodchopper churl and threatanise the remaining skeleton with him.
'See here, this is a sentient knife, he can stab you up good, and he has another, smaller knife with him, take that knife out there Clodchopper thank you.
Now do you want to talk or not?'
Kirae, "Alright you big MEAN, MEANIE BO BEANIE! I'm gonna stab you right and good if you don't tell me what I whant to kno-"
Oh wait he's dead... re-dead? You're not really sure what the proper term of a dead undead is... un-undeaded... re-killed... just dead? You're going to go with just dead. Actually no, re-dead sounds better.
> Acquire backpack to embiggen inventory space
> Loot corpses
You loot 50 zeni and a subspace communicator off the skeleton. Score!
Sadly there's no backpack on him. If only there was someplace in this building where someone could
STORE something. Even that 50 zeni has to be
STOREd somewhere. Aw well, you're pretty
CRAFTy, you'll figure something out.
Check on the patient!
The patient seems alright. She looks a bit disoriented and confused though.
