Look around for a place I could land that's away from ground zero. And not, y'know, otherwise compromised. Then fly there. If any squishlings want to grab on to hitch a ride, let them. If they're too heavy to carry all by myself, let the other flyboys help out.

EDIT: make sure all the braindeads are accounted for. Also that Bob is taken.

EDIT2: If possible this turn, try to think Summer into a better flyer. Immediate evac takes precedence still however.

Activate my shield generator, then me and my robot friends try to catch a ride with Yagyu, if we can't just run in the same direction he's heading.

"Uh-oh. Pushbot, time to skedaddle!"

Grab a hold of Yagyu since I should still be hiding behind him to catch a ride (or any of our other flying teammembers if Yagyu is gone already). Use my octopus suckers to hold onto him.
Tell pushbot to either catch a ride with someone if he can, or just leg it away from the giant incoming hand.

"Fuck.  Sorry."

"Ey, Yagyu,  you wanna think me into a better flyer?  It'd let you fight without people hanging all over you."

Force Field back on.

Carry as many people as possible and necessary.  Fly out of the mouth, trying to evade the giant hand, while keeping close to the body.

Does this giant pain elemental have the blue flame eyes?

(No, its eyes are normal. Well, normal-ish.)


"Damn.  Guess I need to fly closer and hit him with an axe.  Anyone got an axe?"

Ah well.  Pick up Kora, and anyone else who wants a ride, and fly out of the path of the big hand.  Then start flying towards the great big ball of blue fire.

Rocket away as fast as possible with my Jumpsuit to dodge the hand. Don't return until the hand has been dealt with. Also, remind the GM to update employees of the month

Scurry off to the big-elemental's shoulder, pull several tons on tnt from my pack and set it off with a big cartoon style detonator, blowing the gimp's whole arm off much like one would detonate a mountain pass.

"Hey guys! Demolition time! Someone give me a hand with this and don't question what I may have in my pack."

Yagyu scoops up Bob and anyone else who looks a bit dazed while the majority of the rest of the team jumps onto him and clings for dear life.  The awkward ball of teammates rockets out over the teeth and back down into the mouth: its the shortest path to safety Yagyu can see.  The rocket pack isn't really designed to hold a half dozen people, neither in terms of aerodynamics or strength, so Yagyu guides the slowly descending clump of security staff onto the roof of the giant mouth. They wedge themselves in the puffy pink flesh and hold on tight.  Baldwin zips down into the mouth as well, but lands just inside, settling into the space between two teeth. Summer, looking more like some sort of freakish bat, snatches Ji up and dives back down into the mouth. She dives all the way back down to the bottom and lands on the swollen tongue blocking the throat.

Wilfred picks up Kora and activates his jump pack. He accelerates forwards a good distance before one of his legs get caught in a cracked bit of enamel. The mechanical foot wedges in at high speed and Wilfred goes whipping forward in a high speed trip, landing face first with a massive clang. Kora goes flying and lands a good 20 or 25 feet away, bouncing to a halt. Neither is quick to right themselves and the hand crashes down before they can move. [1][4] [4v62][12v20]

The hand slams down onto the lips and teeth like a falling mountain, sending a single ripple of force through the flesh and shaking the world. It sits there, covering the mouth for a few long moments before it begins to rise again. Mashed into the creases of the palm is a smudge of blood that used to be Kora and a horribly crushed and mangled chunk of metal that might still be Wilfred.

There's really only one Bob thing to do at a time like this.
Swim right on up there and bite that hand directly in the hang nail. Death roll the everloving hell outta it.

If it seems like that hand is coming back for another slap, either on its own or as a result of Bob Bobbing it up: continue sheltering, or retreat deeper into the mouth if it doesn't seem safe here anymore (take my cargo of precious morsels with me).

If it seems the coast is clear for now, rocket up to Wil and see if I can carefully peel away the chunk of metal and fly it back down to our medics to see if he can be saved. Try to fly such that I avoid the giant's gaze if possible.

EDIT: if flying up to retrieve Wil seems undoable or too dangerous, try to think the chunk of metal loose so it floats down to us.

"You think they can come back?"

Summer says, and then realizes what happened to her.

"Right, silly question.  It's worth a try."

"You sure you want to land on the hand?  We might be able to fix them without actually doing that."

"I don't know, how would you propose we do that? Cause thinking away our problems has caused just about as much grief as it has prevented.

The giant seemed pretty oblivious to us before despite all the shooting going on. But, I can certainly try to avoid being noticed.

And as to wether they can come back or not... I don't know. Maybe this fucking place will just rebuild them, maybe we need to will them back to existence, maybe they are gone. I don't know how this place works and I'd rather leave before we need to learn much more about it."

"Lets give it a try at least."  "Maybe we can just sort of revive them from a bit of blood or something.  Get it in a syringe and spray it out, and we've got a little Kora there.  They did say in the briefing that they didn't even know if we could die properly here."

"We blew up and wrecked and destroyed all kinds of them, last mission, and a new one just walked back in from here.  They might even be back at base again, good as new."

Try to retrieve a sample of the blood from the hand.  Use the medkit for advantage in recovering a sample.  Soak it up with some bandages.

Avenge my fallen pal Wilfred. Begin rapidly spraying occult bullets from a safe area into that floating hand till it's nothing but Swiss cheese. It's wider than the broad side of a barn. How could I possibly miss?

Jack finds himself standing around on the tooth, uninjured somehow. Its as though he phased out of existence for a few seconds at a very opportune time. Odd.

Bob floats away, drifting up towards the receding hand. Once there he bites hold of a finger tip and starts spazzing out, spinning and thrashing.  If the hand notices, it doesn't show it.

If it seems like that hand is coming back for another slap, either on its own or as a result of Bob Bobbing it up: continue sheltering, or retreat deeper into the mouth if it doesn't seem safe here anymore (take my cargo of precious morsels with me).

You rocket up, pry the smashed metal cockpit out of the groove in the giant palm, and fly back down. You drop the remnants of the hardsuit onto the tooth and then give it a little kick.

"Hey. Anyone home?"

"Lets give it a try at least."  "Maybe we can just sort of revive them from a bit of blood or something.  Get it in a syringe and spray it out, and we've got a little Kora there.  They did say in the briefing that they didn't even know if we could die properly here."

"Safe" is a very subjective thing and it probably won't be "safe" for quite a while. We're gonna assume you stay hidden for the moment, out of uncertainty.

You kick open the emergency hatch on the ruined suit and climb out. You don't feel too bad but Yagyu is pointing at you with some clear shock. You look down and see that a large metal reinforcing rod from the suit's internal frame has been jammed straight through your sternum. Huh. You poke it. Doesn't even hurt much. You're bleeding but not outrageously. Weird. Actually...this feels kinda good.

continue sticking to yagyu's back for now. Use my sensor suite to scan around for dangers.

Spoiler: Edward (click to show/hide)
You point at Wilfred. In terms of dangers, he's probably the biggest one to the team. In a general sense.

Avenge my fallen pal Wilfred. Begin rapidly spraying occult bullets from a safe area into that floating hand till it's nothing but Swiss cheese. It's wider than the broad side of a barn. How could I possibly miss?

Baldwin, presumably, fires fragile darkness up at the big hand. The shot hits the pointer finger and the entire finger transforms into bats. All of it. Into bats. Tens of thousands or maybe hundreds of thousands of them. They're all clustered together in the shape of the finger...and they're starting to fall. The ones on the exterior of the mass are leaping off and flying away but the sheer mass of the bat finger is so great that most of them are trapped within, waiting for the successive layers above them to fly off.  And the entire finger of bats is falling towards the face. It looks like it will miss the mouth and hit the cheek.

Screaming can be heard from within the gums near the team and a moment later Kora emerges from them like a chest burster. She's naked, itemless, absolutely coated in gore, looks slightly paler than before, and is screaming a constant stream of obscenities. Over all, considering she was reduced to paste moments ago, she looks fairly good.
