It's not wasting our turn at all.  We're down health from the slow poison and only out of combat turns hurt us.  So it'll recover 2 HP without suffering 1 damage from using an out-of-combat turn.

Just throwing our turn is dumb.

Crisis mind: spend 2 AP to offer the chest a treat, throwing it to the monster and tricking it into wasting its action on the food.  Then Wham! it.
+1 Sounds good to me.

I missed that the tongue slap does Impact damage, which reduces our available AP.

(I won't rule right now how much you can eat in a noncombat turn, but it definitely wouldn't take up a whole turn to eat one. Stalling out combat for the sake of healing or whatever is a pet peeve of mine and I'll try to avoid allowing it.
The reason why slow poisoning doesn't hurt you in combat is that combat rounds are supposed to happen over a shorter time period than out of combat ones, so it would be logical to eat several meats in a turn, or move and eat etc.
That said, if you'd otherwise be idle on a combat turn, it's not a bad idea.)

[Crisis+2, Moderate difficulty: Success!] (66% chance)

Awuna reaches into her hobo satchel mid-stride and pulls out a particularly juicy strip of Minkdillo flesh, tossing it underhand into the stupid fucking asshole fake box's mouth. Its raws clamp down immediately, forgetting the immediate threat.
[Box is stunned]
[-1 Meat Chunk]
"Mama mia, it's fresh! Thanks sweetheart!"

Awuna then follows up with a big punch to its dumb googly eye. It proves remarkably solid. Less like flesh and more like hardwood.
Which uh, would make sense, considering it's a box.
[2 Damage dealt]



The box's googly eyes circle comically and it doesn't do anything on its round.

This may not be the best use of our dwindling endurance. Run, run again, and then try another door?

Ahh, thought we'd grapple to get the kill.  Mmm.

Well, go for feed again, but this time, grapple, so we can bite for victory.

That's victory, but costs another meat and another 33% of failure. (Which would result in getting bit and set down to 1 HP)

Does offering meat count as melee?

..Also, could we pass a turn and try again at 4 Crisis instead of 2?

You won't be getting more Crisis unless you level up, you can only gain Meter. :p

Right, whoops.  Would 4 meter help?  Could easily talk to the box to pass the turn.

Your only Meter usage so far is Pounce, which you... should only need to use once in this fight.

Agg, whoops.

Can we make it a 4AP meat offering, then a pounce follow up?

We can entice it with a nice meat song.
