Tal is tempted to ask why they don't have a tactician onstaff for stuff like this but decides it's not worth the effort to bring it up.

[zomara0292]

((Tal. . . your logic may have brought us gold, but you lost us EXP. Which is more valuable?))

[~Neri]

((I'd say not dying is the most valuable~ That would have been a suicide mission by all standards. They're entrenched and clearly could see our drones. They'd be able to prep.))

[zomara0292]

((So you are saying that the first part of your plan was going to fail? I mean, we could have gone in afterwards and still played mop up. Maybe even take some prisoners.))

[~Neri]

((No. I mean fighting an enemy with equal tiered equipment who is in a defensive position by its very nature will end poorly. We have succeeded because we have made all of our targets fight us on Our terms. If we just rushed in there, we'd be fighting on their terms. We have to see what happens post bombing to see if it's better for us to go in there or for a lesser gateteam to go in. At the very minimum, if there's an active Entity present. Tal'll wanna see if he can chat with it.))

[LordPorkins]

((Three cheers for Tal! May his powers of Procrastination never fail! Also, if an Entity does appear similar to Bill, Frazz would propably be a useful asset because he knows how these things think.))

So, Frazz continues trying to get used to his new body. I imagine by now hes able to walk and pickup stuff, and maybe fly a little, but the finer points still need polish.

[zomara0292]

((You know you lucked into not being trapped as a new denzen, right?))

[LordPorkins]

((Its called skillz. And also it wasnt luck. I knew Tal had the capabilities to remive any sort of possession, as well as the obligation to protect all teammates. I mean, when you think about it, i specifically made sure not to clarify that point to Bill, since i knew that would frighten him off. Frazzes selfpreservation is quite good actually. He just often has to do convuluted things to get what he wants.))

[zomara0292]

((So, you knew you would be turned into a dragon, yes?))

"It's about the same as the Gauss would be with the arm brace. Your stance was a bit off, not really good for taking the recoil. Try like this..."

With that, Aria starts helping Vigil get into the appropriate stance, not unlike a golf coach helping their player with a swing.

She will notice his muscles slowly relax with each shot as he gets used to firing the high powered weapon.

"This is actually much easier than I thought it would be. Still kicks like a lion, though."

[LordPorkins]

((Actually, i wasnt altogether surpriesed. I knew Bil would most likely turn someone into a dragon. I was hoping Tal. But hey, i like this better))
Frazz gets a scientist to ride on his back to test limits of his strength. Not flying, mind you. Just walking around. See how much weight he would be able to carry normally.

[~Neri]

((I actually wasn't certain that we could get rid of the possession through skill alone. Tal can probably handle it now with his current skills, but preskillup prolly not. That's why we threw three dozen monkeys at the problem. Monkeybruteforcing is the best alternative to skill~))

[LordPorkins]

((Id probably sig that if i wasnt sworn off sigs.))

[LordPorkins]

After giving a scientist a seriously good story to tell at the bar, Frazz then begins working on his flight. Its clunky at first, and for the first few hours he has trouble doing anythung than making a large hop and landing facefirst. Eventually he actually begins being able to repeatedly flap and keep himself in the air without causing an excess of updraft. After he near the roof of the gym, he reaches out with both feet and wing/claws and digs his claws into the wall. Assuming the wall isnt made of something crappy like plaster, he then pushes off and attempts to glide one end of the gym to the other.


On a side note, hes really tearing up the floors on his landings. Until he gets better, he probably should find some isolated grassy spot. Otherwise hes eventually going to break into the floor below.

It was really becoming fun, actually. Shooting the Gauss and seeing it just punching through metal targets like it wasn't even there. The recoil causing your whole arm to vibrate into Aria's hold is a good bonus as well.

Frazz kept practicing, and he kept strumbling about much to the amusement of scientists. They told him to not worry about the floor and have some engineers pour some quick-drying concrete into the holes whenever they're made so they can keep on watching the overgrown lizard try to play bird.

Zander found his dogs following him to his training regimes, and the one that's been fed special food seems to be.. training.. too?
Seeing a dog does 'push ups' is a strange one.

[LordPorkins]

"Well f you guys too! Im a freaking dragon who can talk and goes through portals to kill aliens and get pha lootz. I doubt your guys resume looks nearly as impressive."
(This is upon Frazzes seeing the scientists try not to laugh)
