"Uh, hello? Are you friendly?"
Speak to the ape, but keep my gun aimed for now.
Name: Jack Hansan
Physical Description: Tall, rather thin looking man with black hair and brown eyes.
Background: His father was a security guard as was his father's father, so it was tradition by now to be one too. Of course, Jack would come to regret this path as soon as he arrived. Though, he does seem to know more than he is sometimes letting on...

The ape currently has a face full of sticky goo. This makes it hard for it to hear or respond, though its brain helmet is yelling things like
"HELL!" and
"BLAST!" and
"GO TO THE DEVIL!" Its almost as though you overlooked Harry's actions in the last few seconds. And his long speech about shooting goo in an ape's face. And Spuds mentally disassociating himself from the rest of the team because of the quantity of goo sprayed in the ape's face and the joy with which it was done.
Admittedly I wouldn't blame you for forgetting about it, consciously or not. I only remember it because the laughing skull who keeps me hostage demands I remember everything you people do.
Name: HAZMAT Harry
Physical Description: He walked in wearing a HAZMAT suit, and walked out of his job interview wearing an Isolation Suit with a reflective dome.
Background: We're pretty sure he served in the military in a NBC warfare cleanup team. He doesn't talk about it much nowadays. He definitely knows his stuff, though, and has seen enough to bit just a little more resilient than most.

Piecewise I just want you to know that I hate you so much right now.
"None of that talking was me, it's all the disembodied narrator's fault."
Harry shakes his head to readjust his brain and deletes the last few seconds of awkward from memory. Then prepares to hit the primate with more FOAM if necessary.
((I hurt you because I love you. And also it amuses me greatly~))"I meant every word of that. If anything, I meant
MORE " Harry says, though he looks extremely angry while doing so and then immediately looks around in an agitated way. It is as though seeking some unseen menace to beat mercilessly, just like he beats his wife, children, pets, and occasionally strangers on the street who he believes are agents of the one world order.
"Listen...I'll just stand here on standby ready to use my tool...use this containment device to...contain the...subject." He says these things very slowly and carefully, as though choosing his words very particularly so that they can't be used against him. Like in those custody hearings or during that human trafficking case he was in.
Scream like a small girl and fill the orangutan with bullets. Run away if it doesn't stop moving.
"Not agaaaaain!"
Name: Rezel Revel
Physical Description: Small, unassuming, twitchy, and nervous. Giggles quietly when scared.
Background: Signed up because he was told that security guards were given P90-like weapons, and basically went "Oh, cool, I love P90s!" He regrets this decision.

Rezel makes an interesting noise. Somewhere between a train whistle or a boiling teapot and the sound made when someone stubs their toe really hard. He continues making this noise as he brings his gun to bear on the stuck ape. Spuds, ever diplomatic when it comes to primates, moves to stop him but Rezel kicks Spuds square in the testicles and the hip checks him out of the way before opening up on the ape. Shots tear through hardened foam and the creature jerks and spasms before going mostly limp, blood staining the white foam pink.
"For in that sleep of death, what dreams may come" comes the weak and increasingly tinny voice from the brain helmet.
What is an omni-card again, like a credit card or like a keycard?
Goop the ape to the floor if it acts hostile, if it doesn't tell it to get away from the door and to move to the other end of the chamber (to free our lines of fire).
If another hostile monster comes out the door, goop it, goop it good.

An omni-card is akin to a giftcard with a certain amount of omni loaded onto it. Its as close to loose money as you'll get.
The Ape is acting non-hostile at the minute. Increasingly non-hostile. You decide not to try and steal Rezel's thunder. You saw what happened to the last guy who did.
Keep my rifle pointed at the ape, just in case it decides to become hostile.
Name: Benny Benson

Heather is still considering the apparent medical mystery of the breathing corpse when a crazed man runs over to her and spikes a metal doorknob into the body's shin. The body lets out a rather stifled groan.
"Now that is defintely not right. Corpses don't breath and they defintely don't complain. I know. The malpractice board was VERY specific on that point."

Hmmm.
Probably not.
He gets the FOF marker from Benny.
Well, shit. Does it the terminal boot at all anymore? If not, incinerate all the hardware to hide my mountain dew soaked fuckup.
Then find another computer I can access to check out the contents of the USB stick in my inventory that I picked up earlier.
Name: Eddrick E. Slant, esq.
Physical Description: Prefers wearing his rubberized suit with the hazmat helmet. Underneath he's a young man in
his late 20's. He has an unkempt mop of hair, some serious stubble, and the perpetualy tired look of someone who is both
overworked and enjoys staying up way too late.
Background: Eddrick, like every boy in his family, was forced to become a lawyer. Though he passed his bar exam,
he would quickly change jobs to a janitor at a local high school. The drudgery of too many divorce cases just got to him,
man. After a freak incidend with genetically modified frogs forced to school to close down, Eddrick took a job with
OMNITECH. He originally applied for a position as Public Relations Representative, but they made him a janitor due to his
prior experience.

Edd sniffs, looks around a bit self conciously, and then seeps the keyboard into his incincerator. He moves on to the next terminal and sticks the USB drive into it.
The usb contains a good amount of what look like MP3 files, documents, images, even a few executables. They look personal in nature, like this is some's private USB. They've got DOOM on here. And some folder with "ShindoL" as the name.
"Nothing to worry about. This is basic cat behavior. When you knock on the side of a box they always strike the offender with their paw. I just didn't expect this box to be so weak."
The solution to this problem is obvious. Remove my spacesuit's helmet. Let the cat have it. Better than it having my head.
Preferably do so before an overzealous teammate shoots me in the head or shoves me in an incinerator.

Pathos fumbles and undoes the helmet, dropping out of it and scrambling back on his butt as it gets yanked through the hole in the printer. There's a sound of crushing metal and glass inside the printer and a moment later the helmet comes back out, this time as a rough lump that catches Pathos in the chest and flattens him to the ground.

Jengo peaks back around the corner and fires a burst into the printer. A howling screech comes from it and a spray of blood and lint and the printer rocks back and forth violently.
Wander off to find Pathos and see how my kitty printing request is coming along. If I witness the current struggle, saunter over and spray some cream cheese into the printer for the kittything. If that doesn't calm it down, poke it idly with my automop.

Jon wanders in as Jengo unloads rounds into the printer. He observes the situation for a moment before shrugging and walking towards the printer. He's about halfway there when something the rough size of a tiger lurches out through the hole. It looks something like a tiger as well, though also something like a very bloody coat. In either case its only half formed, two massive front legs and a half molten face of teeth and too many eyes trailing a partial lower body and spine, the stringy remnants from the printer's current "line" still trailing behind it.
