Head back to the control room and acquire more indestructible backrests.
get enough to coat my shield and have one spare.
Attach them to the front of my shield as best as possible then resume searching rooms.
You head back in that direction....
You walk for 20 minutes and eventually end up back where you started without finding the initial control room or the other group of people. You just find the old set of idiots.
Oh great, this old chestnut.
"YOU FUCKING ALIENS ARE REALLY FUCKING UNIMAGINATIVE!"
Make a hasty getaway to a safe distance. I'm not sure what that is considering this stuff, so just run over to wherever Flint is right now, or as far as I can make in a turn.
Also receive the laser rifle.
You run off down the hall, but after 5 or 10 minutes of running, you reach a dead end in the hall and find no flint.
"Hey Vanessa? Where did some of these organs come from? One of the kidneys was saying something about the mob and one of the livers had a really alcoholic former owner. You ah, you happen to ''borrow'' these from other people? Not that I really care, seeing as how I'm alive still, thanks to you."
Whee! Go along for the ride with Xan Vanessa. Not much else I can do anyways.
The Organs say they don't talk about the dark times.
Chuck Vanessa my laser rifle, gently. Sniff deeply, then do the rest of the pieces at once.
"Did somebody fart over the transmitter here? Someone with a robo-body, perhaps?"
Glare at Jobasio accusatorily/
"Whats that smell?"
Your skin is crawling.
The walls start to bleed.
"C'mon baby. Why are you being so distant? Was it something I said?"
Keep following the headless Flint.
Is he close enough to lasso with my rope?
What about bending a metal pole and tying it on a rope to make a hook I could use to make him "get over here!"?
What about shooting some goop in front of him without hitting him?
Or trapping him in a forcefield artifact container?
And when you say he's Flint without the suit, do you mean "Flint without the Battlesuit, but with the rest of his equipment" or "completely naked"?
You could give it a try. He's about 25 feet away. Any of those, minus the pole, are technically possible.
Keep following the Flints behind the Battlesuit Flint.
"Can I kneecap him? Pretty Please?"
He gives you a hard, metallic stare.
Explore the hallway which Flint is in... Find a door. If I do find one, is it hot or cold to the touch? Anything odd about it? If not, open the thing up.
The one which flint entered?The one with Flint other? Or the normal one? Assuming Other.
You grab a door. It appears to be pretty cold. But it also appears to be locked, or at least stuck.
Jobasio catches up to Ian, a large yellow smile emoticon on his robo-face.
"Ah, a door! Excellent. Well spotted. Let us inspect this door closely."
Keeping his gauss rifle between him and the door ready to snap up and fire should it try anything, he begins to peer at it.
Study Ian's door with my cameye. Anything unusual?
Also ponder the viability of kicking it in. That would be cool, but I'm not very used to my robobody yet. Would it be strong enough to do so?
Shoot anything threatening that happens to appear unless it's a teammate, naturally. If it is a teammate just shoot 'em in the knee if they act weird. Weirder, anyway. Ugh, basically, if they walk towards me with what looks/sounds/smells like violent intent.
Well, it's oddly cold on the thermal, but thats it.
Depends on how stuck it is, you suppose. It's definitely, probably an option.
