"Where did you get that eye?"
Speaking of eyes: Millenus attempts to change his eyes into the seeing orbs of the spiders.
Millenus is able to replicate the appearance with ease, but to really duplicate the internals it may be necessary to pluck out a sample (to get another +1).
As it turns out, the small crystalline orb is actually a lens. Retinae on the inner socket of each crystal eye pick up the bent light. What's interesting about it is that they can alter the focal length through electrically stimulating their eyeballs and changing the refraction index--Millenus is now able to focus his vision without physically distorting his eyes.
[Shapeshift 3+2 -> 2] The spider eyes have another unique property, one perhaps less mundane: they are very sensitive to motion up close, although they offer distorted vision at longer ranges.

"No kidding."
Hermia freaks the fuck out in the background.
"Hm."
Raioyris makes his way to the Azure corpse, Hermia following in hops. Extending his locus, Raioyris begins gruesome work on the body. Salvage the memory metal from the corpse and the targeting eye.
[Surgery 3+1 for tool -> 3] Raioyris carves up the body as best he can. Soon enough it is not only reduced to a stack of Locus Alloy and a healthy targeting system, surprisingly in good shape, but he has also partitioned the body neatly into its constituent organs and major bones.
Objects of Interest:Laser Targeting System: A rangefinder and vision processing system, able to pick out targets amidst a backdrop and track their velocity and expected position.
-> If connected to nervous system: +1 Reflex on shooting attacks
-> Necessary component for Laser weapons (used to adjust lenses for maximum cutting power). Provides +1 attack bonus to weapon.
Nervous Uplink: With some surgery, this can be used to connect the human nervous system to any computer system.
-> DIFF is 2 to perform the surgery.
Locus Alloy: Can be merged with by another Azure. Must have storage space inside the body, or else be stored outside the body.
"A massive spider? Any more details? When do you think that happened?" Gilles' attention was piqued by the mention of a giant spider.
You notice the man's clothes are somewhat torn, and stained with blood at the waist. The blood is clotted, however, and the fabric has been ripped away to reveal a layer of silk peeling away from a long-healed scar.
Solj rests for now, seeing as there's no immediate crisis.
Solj rests, as well as a gun can rest, at least.
RAEDAR shows some movement up ahead, distinct from the shuffling conga line of spiders. [3 -> 0] The spiders obscure the signature, however, and it's impossible to discern a shape or distance.
