I'm so sorry Dwarmin if I'm going to root around Sadish's data in the ship PC u_u I need a viable greeting so that KILLER VARKY won't KILLY OUR SHIP.

I should have totally made a hologram of myself that could take part in your amazing adventures!
MAYBE YOU DID! :O
But then Kesari forgot despite all our backstory adventures with each other, and she forgot because she is too busy with manythings. :P

Draig: You allow forgetfulness to play into RPing in this semi-freeform deathRPG right?


If Kesari's transmission gets through, try to explain the system quickly... assuming I remember how it goes. (Please no puzzles.)

I edited my initial post to show the inevitable 'message not sent' akin to these text mobile phones--it happens to me fairly often for some reason thanks to our 1 to 0 bar reception here :P but I have had evidence that the text DID send (even if the triangular ! tells me it didn't)

So I guess Draig is going to make a mini turn? :P

Not really.  :-\

Interesting character details that give additional options in a situation, such the puzzle box, the entire space station Deliria, and all of Aubrey's stuff, is fine. That's fleshing out a character and giving me room to work. Going 'Oh, wait, I actually had exactly what I need, I just forgot until it was thematically convenient!' is just bad writing.

There's a difference between a plot hook and an ass pull, though the line does occasionally get blurry.

Miniturns as time permits, since there certainly needs to be some dialog.

Goodness cheesy gravy. We've got around 10 minutes assuming no hilarity (and the lack of physical transport time, which there will be) to save Scarlet, and a bit more time for the kitty panther. But the panther is in the bag with the goat so yeah. o_O

And that ten minutes is me asking IronyOwl/Khate to go find Sadish with the only lead being the picture that Boris snapshot'd of the scene of the crime.

And then there's Mickaw's second who I haven't heard of despite making several subactions towards them. Thanks Draig. :P

The Reunion's bore drive was not operational at the moment

Er, did I miss the moment when someone broke the bore drive?

What's that? Immediately retcon the bore drive to be critically damaged?

Will do!

Honestly, I'm just confused.

Even if it's working fine, I'm sure actually using it requires getting through another of Boris' unique diagrams. Might as well be critically damaged.

You people and your aversion to puzzles. It's like you don't even want to integrate logic gates in your free time.

The kitchenette mold free, you move on to the pantry. it's nasty in there. The bacon is grazing on the lettuce. The ham is having an illicit affair with the prime rib, The potatoes see all, know all. A rat in boxer shorts smoking a foul smelling cigar is banging on a cabinet shouting about rent money.

I need to remember for Aubrey to rack her memory as to what those blue lights might be, and if she can mess with them.

I think it's a light-taking whatever thingy. :P Honestly it's a new thing to me so I suspect techno-support device.
Or a teleportation thingy which is so weird O_o
Either way, ensure he won't do anything with that tech-thing because it seems he's buying time. Deactivate his stuff.
Then challenge him to quit the Testament and join us because whatever happens--we'll be targeted anyway.

Heeeeeeey I meant in boring OUT. It's not operational in that way D: It is operational in everywhereotherway

Actually using it requires everyone to be on board.

Y'know because Kesari likes it when nobody is left behind :V
Especially to rainbow space taffy that kills you upon touchy.

DH - right, so.

What was the plan again? There's probably too many for us to deal with. So an alternative would be to lock the ships together, set the charges, and get the hell out. No?

This is what I propose.

If you accept I will discuss it IC.

ALSO - Draignean mentioned that the Nosoi's generators are probably running at max. We could try overloading them or something.

(my awesome plan that involved Boris breathing in space used Aubrey's Bird being autopiloted here, a la nightrider, and Aubrey escaping in it whilst Boris... floated through space or something? I figured he could probably sort something out.)

How do we get out if we lock the ships together? We don't know where to find escape pods yet! Otherwise I'd be tempted to agree with you. He might be lying about the number of people aboard, but eesh.

If there are useable escape pods on the freighter, I suppose we could blow the freighter's reactor and hope that hurts the Nosoi enough to matter. If not, well. We might need to go in. Er. Please do neutralize the Fin; floating away is very annoying.

I was going to suggest we just murder both of them.

Er - we could locate escape pods?

We need to murder the fin immediately!

And should possibly doubt all he has told us!!
