"I don't think it can talk outside of its machine. Unless it's a telepath maybe. Or has an uplink like those two."

Titus' battlescanner picks up more high-energy signatures approaching, about 300 meters away.

Titus scoops up the blob into the jar. "You're with us Skippy."

"I'm thinking we should save the purge for the next AO we move to, cuz we-"

As Titus stuffs the creature into the jar, buffeting Koi and Espada with broadcasted hatred, somehow it manages to grab one of the pistols off Titus' belt with a a tentacle.

"...should really move."

"Unit Titus. Squeeze the tendril gripping your pistol until it either A: Releases the weapon or B: Breaks off. We shall relocate. Purge is required regardless as the creature is currently producing hostile nanoswarm."

Buffet the creature with recorded memories of Sickening Contentment and Cheer from Amish Hell's spacetime.

"Well, I was already preparing the spell for the purge, so..."

Spell detonated. If that goes right, there go the nanobots.

The creature responds with a fantasy of surgically removing every piece of hardware that enables your connection to a groupmind before killing you. The fantasy is charged with similar sickening cheer, from the creature's mind.

"Well, I was already preparing the spell for the purge, so..."

Spell detonated. If that goes right, there go the nanobots.

Anyone who could see signs of their presence notes the sudden absence of the nanites. "Alright, hopefully you'll have time to prepare that again. And hopefully there aren't more than 3 of the reinforcements. Now, fucking run!"

Koi scoops up Espada and bolts away from the energy signatures.

Imagery of slowly warping the betentacled beings mind, letting it Feel while splintering the consciousness, locking its initial Mind away in an observer position while a new, more Amicable mind takes its place.

As you run, you notice that song growing louder still. You can hear it now, sweet-sour voices on the wind...

Resalth can apparently run fairly fast. "Am I the only one hearing music?"

Koi scoops up Espada and bolts away from the energy signatures.

Imagery of slowly warping the betentacled beings mind, letting it Feel while splintering the consciousness, locking its initial Mind away in an observer position while a new, more Amicable mind takes its place.

This triggers feelings of revulsion, hatred, and rage in the creature so strong that they actually proc some kind of anti-Cascade failsafe in Espada and the connection between you two and the creature is temporarily closed.

As Titus runs he takes the handgun away from the tentacled creature. He gives it back after removing the magazine and the chambered round. "There you go little guy, that's much more safe to play with." He closes the lid after.
