(5) You manage to struggle free of the guards and sprint to a safe distance before tossing a knife at one! (5 + 1 = 6) The throwing knife zips through the air, slitting a guard's throat! It then travels around the group of guards like a boomerang. It (5) Slits another throat, (Three 6's in a row!) decapitates three more (!), (4) slices open the last guard's arm, and (2) narrowly misses a random bystander. It then flies back into your hand. Holy crap.

I also cast a vote in favor of the timeskip- at this point I'm just killing time.

I'd be in favor of a fantasy time skip; so long as I can be gambling that entire time to recoup my losses and make my weapon more effective.

Majority rules, the next turn takes place at midnight with you all at the docks. Also, Derm no longer has failure. Oh, and don't forget to look at the elevator controls a couple of lines down.

**********~
Turn 9

META TURN:

Derm looks down at the elevator controls (you're currently on Deck M3):

Actions
RW: Hack into mecha spider. MAKE IT MINE.
(...) Grabbing the mecha-spider, you rip it open and rewire it! Staring into its mechanical soul, you suddenly understand it. Running into the hall, you leap into the swarm of mecha-spiders and begin ripping them open! The swarm surrounds you and begins lashing out at you, but you keep grabbing more spiders and altering their circuitry. Finally, just as the swarm is about to engulf you, you activate the spiders' altered AI. The altered spiders jump into action, splitting apart and melding together into one super mecha-spider! Bursting free of the mound of twitching metal appendages, you jump onto the super mecha-spider and it gallops (try to imagine a 2-foot-tall mecha-spider galloping) to the elevator!

Meta:
Run to the Elevator with the GM

(...) You roll quickly down the hall on the Gordon Mobile, swinging at mechanical spiders as they jump at you! Finally, you manage to get into the elevator.
Meta: GET TO DA CHOPPA ELEVATOR!
(...) You leap from the med bay and begin stumbling through the swarm of spiders. One jumps at you, (...) but you manage to swat it out of the way. You get safely to the elevator!
Meta: Tweak the odds and run to the elevator
(...) Plowing your way through the horde, you sprint toward the elevator! One of the spiders leaps at you, but you slice it clean in half with a karate chop! You make a desperate dive down the hallway and into the elevator and slam into the back wall as the mecha-spiders begin to fly en masse toward the open elevator door!
Meta: arm self with, say, scalpel. move to elevator.
(...) You pull a scalpel out of the cabinet and begin running toward the elevator! Frederick zooms past you as you run! Knocking spiders out of the way as you pass them, you run to the elevator in safety. Suddenly, the mecha-spiders begin to fly at the elevator all at once!

Locations



EARTH!

Elevator Controls

Interrogation Room 7E-365 (Deck M3): You were all shackled to chairs in here when you woke up. The door has been dropkicked off its hinges. There's circuitry on the walls, a row of monitors, and a row of 5 chairs.

Medical Bay (Deck M3): It's got a ton of medical supplies, a surgical table, and a medical robot.

Janitor's Closet (Deck M3): Full of precious cleaning supplies!

Central Medical Bay (Main Deck): The main medical bay.

Cryogenics and Prosthetics Lab (Main Deck): It's in the central medical bay. Sounds interesting.

WOH! Best action I had ever had in my RTD history! That is so going in my sig! Although I didn't like the 3 6's in a row.

Meta: Guard the elevator until everyone is in. Request going to Hanger.

Fantasy: look at one of the boats.

Meta: Close the door at the appropriate time so it closes just after the last person gets in (use uncanny prediction to time it right).

Fantasy: Join the group that will be scaling the wall.

RW: Call a vote on the floor. Hit that floor button. Take a pain killer.

FW: Discreetly begin summoning small but deadly rats in out of sight places, such as unseen corners and underneath low furniture.

Mecha spider sweet!

Anyone have any gauze?

It's already midnight for the next turn, if you were wondering. You can still perform those actions, but you might want to add on something about the heist and whatnot.
