11:02 AM <@DSJ> The briefing room contains 1, a briefer, 2 a table, 3, a projector on that table, and 4, folders on that table
11:02 AM <Knyght> Irene pops in!
11:02 AM <%aidenEldritch> Cole nabs one of the folders.
11:02 AM <taylor|icecream> Tony as well.
11:02 AM <ArseneLupin> Graham takes a seat and a folder
11:02 AM <Knyght> Irene finds a spot to sit and relax, taking a folder with her.
11:03 AM <@DSJ> "Good evening, agents." The briefer says. He turns on the projector, which shows slides of map of a field in Montana
11:03 AM <@DSJ> The map is also in the folder
11:03 AM <taylor|icecream> Tony nods to the briefer.
11:04 AM <Knyght> Irene offers a small wave.
11:04 AM <SpookyBee> "Evenin' boss. What's the topic of the day?"
11:04 AM taylor|icecream → taylor_itkin
11:04 AM <ArseneLupin> Graham waves a little.
11:05 AM <@DSJ> "We're not sure what exactly you'll be doing, but you're going to be investigating a lab that we were keeping an eye on."
11:05 AM <Knyght> She nods. "Typical work, I guess."
11:05 AM <taylor_itkin> "Wait, you're not sure?"
11:05 AM <@DSJ> "We have reason to believe something happened, as the agent assigned to the building hasn't seen anyone leave or enter for the past week."
11:06 AM <ArseneLupin> "Why were we keeping an eye on it?"
11:06 AM <SpookyBee> "…" She squints, tilting her head comically. "… Not sure what we're doin'. Well, this can only go a million ways, as long as it's south."
11:06 AM <taylor_itkin> Tony snorts at Maple's remark. He finds it funny!
11:07 AM <@DSJ> "We suspected they were working with Horizon labs, and knew their staff had former GRU-P scientists."
11:07 AM <Knyght> Irene nods. "And we're just, busting into the place to see what's what?"
11:07 AM <@DSJ> "Basically."
11:07 AM <SpookyBee> "Ain't ever heard'a Horizon. Guess we'll be seein' their deal then, at least."
11:07 AM <taylor_itkin> "Me neither," Tony says.
11:08 AM <@DSJ> "We've done a preliminary sweep of the area and we aren't concerned about any radiation or other contaminates."
11:09 AM <@DSJ> *PROMETHEUS LABS NOT HORIZON
11:09 AM <%aidenEldritch> "Well, that really sets my mind at ease."
11:09 AM <@DSJ> "We're sorry you're more or less going in blind, but we've been informed your group is used to that."
11:10 AM <taylor_itkin> "So, all we have to worry about is other people tryin' to kill us? And even that we aren't sure about?"
11:10 AM <@DSJ> "The car for the airport leaves soon, so gather your gear and head to it."
11:10 AM <SpookyBee> "… More'r less, from what I've seen, really." Maple shrugs, sipping a cup of some drink.
11:10 AM <%aidenEldritch> "Seems about right."
11:10 AM <ArseneLupin> Graham sighs. "Yeah, we are. Not that i'm happy about it."
11:10 AM <taylor_itkin> "Lovely," Tony sighs. He shrugs his backpack onto his shoulders.
11:11 AM <SpookyBee> Maple nods- "See you lot at the vehicle, I'll go get my gear ready."
11:11 AM <SpookyBee> She heads off!
11:11 AM <Knyght> Irene grabs her gear, and heads to the vehicle quickly. She came prepared!
11:11 AM <taylor_itkin> Tony as well, he walks with Irene.
11:11 AM <ArseneLupin> Graham gets up and goes to the vehicle after gathering his gear
11:11 AM <%aidenEldritch> Cole bustles off to grab her gear and heads off to the vehicle

11:13 AM <@DSJ> After a longish flight, and a long drive into the country, you find yourself outside of an odd, concrete building in the middle of a field. It doesn't look like much, but it has a gravel parking lot outside and a glass door to a lit, empty lobby
11:15 AM <@DSJ> You're free to act
11:16 AM <SpookyBee> Maple's toting a Foundation-issued Ithaca shotgun now, Police standard with a militarized green coat, cut-down barrel, and pistol grip. She takes a look at her team mates, shouldering the shotgun via its strap, and then looks around for any kind of outside security!
11:16 AM <Knyght> Irene unslings her shotgun, pressing the stock to her shoulder and hopping out of the vehicle, ready to go. "Why is it so empty here?" She asks aloud, looking about.
11:16 AM <%aidenEldritch> Cole steps out of the car and spends a few moments limbering up after the long drive. "Jesus, I kinda feel like I've been sittin' down for a couple years…"
11:16 AM <@DSJ> PERC, anyone looking for stuff

11:17 AM <@DSJ> Everyone who got a six, you notice very slight cracks in the walls, as if there was an earthquake
11:18 AM <Knyght> Irene doesn't see them, and begins to approach slowly, gun raised.
11:18 AM <ArseneLupin> "I never like it when the places they send us look normal. I like to know the danger beforehand."
11:18 AM <taylor_itkin> "Irene," Tony says. He tells her about the cracks.
11:19 AM <Knyght> Irene stops a foot or so into moving, paying slightly closer attention. "Cracks?"
11:19 AM <taylor_itkin> "In the walls," he says, pointing.
11:20 AM <%aidenEldritch> Cole wonders what exactly was big enough to cause that kind of structural damage.
11:20 AM <taylor_itkin> Tony walks up to the cracks. Would it be helpful to take a closer look (PERC?)?
11:20 AM <ArseneLupin> "Yeah, I noticed that too. Maybe there was an earthquake?"
11:20 AM <SpookyBee> Maple sighs, not seeing much, before she starts making her way for the door on a slow approach. "Standard breach, front-side. Anybody else got any ideas?"

11:32 AM <@DSJ> The elevator doors seem to go out further than to the sides of the door way. A small logo denotes this is a Miller Industrial elevator, but that doesn't tell you much. It smells sterile
11:33 AM <%aidenEldritch> "Weird, these doors're too big for the frame they're in." Cole rubs her nose. "Smells like the medbay."
11:33 AM <taylor_itkin> "Why would this place have a medbay?"
11:33 AM <Knyght> Irene examines it curiously, moving up to it slowly. "Huh? Does that mean it's mean to open up to someplace bigger?"

11:33 AM <SpookyBee> "…" she squints, heading to the elevator. "Odd." Maple pokes her head into the elevator- Is there any other direction to go?
11:34 AM <%aidenEldritch> "I mean it smells like antiseptic, all that shit."
11:34 AM <@DSJ> The elevator is closed.
11:34 AM <@DSJ> There's a button to open it, though
11:34 AM <Knyght> Irene looks for a button?
11:34 AM <%aidenEldritch> Cole taps the button
11:34 AM <Knyght> Oh, goodie! Irene woul-

11:36 AM <taylor_itkin> "Flood hazard?"
11:36 AM <SpookyBee> Maple steps in, looking around- "… Huh. Not sure- Maybe it's just designed that way?"
11:36 AM <@DSJ> There's a button to go up, and a button to go down

11:46 AM <Knyght> Irene rubs her arms gently, stepping out towards the rack of guns. "What's up with this place…?"

11:47 AM <%aidenEldritch> Cole does the same. "Backup quality…"
11:48 AM <%aidenEldritch> "Is there a reason they gave us numbers on our tattooes?"
11:48 AM <Knyght> Irene would take a rifle and baton, before looking at her watch. "What is this?"
11:48 AM <ArseneLupin> Graham grabs one of each.

11:51 AM <@DSJ> The metal door slides open easily, leading you to an office complex of sorts, with a handful of locked offices
11:51 AM <ArseneLupin> "That seems like a bit of a leap in logic. It could be groups of people. We could be group one."
11:51 AM <@DSJ> Parts of the wall in there are cracked, and gravel can be seen on the floor

11:51 AM <%aidenEldritch> "Same cracks on the walls as upstairs."
11:51 AM <Knygh_> Irene would go to move first into the office, trying to take point as per her job. "Guess we should get moving, huh?"
11:52 AM <%aidenEldritch> She pokes at a bit of gravel with her toe. "Seems like that's where this came from."

11:55 AM <%aidenEldritch> Cole sure as fuck can't see through the windows, so she waits for Maple to do her thing.
11:55 AM <@DSJ> It cracks some, but doesn't opeb
11:55 AM <@DSJ> *Open
11:55 AM <SpookyBee> "…" Maple grumbles, shaking her head because What.
11:55 AM <Knygh_> Can Irene give it a try?
11:55 AM <taylor_itkin> Tony kicks the door that Maple kicks.
11:55 AM <taylor_itkin> Unless Irene tries first…
11:55 AM <@DSJ> Anyone can try, just roll Melee for it
11:56 AM <Knygh_> Irene gives it a whirl.
11:56 AM <SpookyBee> Considering Maple was just going for a random door, she steps away, looking around some more.
11:56 AM <taylor_itkin> 4df+3 DOOR

11:56 AM <@DSJ> The door breaks open

11:56 AM <Knyght> ((Rip
11:57 AM <taylor_itkin> Tony slaps Irene on the back. "Good teamwork!"
11:57 AM <Knyght> She smiles, raising her riflee as she goes to peer inside the now broken door. "Thanks, pal."
11:57 AM <@DSJ> Inside the office is a desk with files and papers messily arranged on it, and an overturned chair
11:57 AM <Knyght> Irene would approach slowly and go to check a few of the papers if able.
11:57 AM <taylor_itkin> Tony picks up some of the files and papers. Is there anything worth noting on them?
11:58 AM <@DSJ> Depends, can he read Russian?
11:58 AM <@DSJ> Can anyone, for that matter? Because the papers are in Russian
11:58 AM <%aidenEldritch> Definitely not Cole.
11:58 AM <taylor_itkin> Tony has a bit of Russian in his ancestry, but cannot read it.
11:58 AM <taylor_itkin> But he knows what it looks like!
11:58 AM <Knyght> Irene may pick up on bits, she did work against Russain intelligence in the CIA during cold war shenans. Probably not enough to read fluently.
11:59 AM <ArseneLupin> Graham checks out the overturned chair since he does not know Russian
11:59 AM <@DSJ> PERC or ACD, then, Irene

11:59 AM <Knyght> Thanks Glaco
11:59 AM <SpookyBee> Or not :|
11:59 AM <%aidenEldritch> Cole winces at the sight of the stain on the headrest.
11:59 AM <taylor_itkin> Tony joins Graham. "Blood?"
11:59 AM <@DSJ> She can't really make much out, but it's definitely a formal report
11:59 AM <ArseneLupin> Could Graham roll ACAD to identify what the stain is?
11:59 AM <ArseneLupin> "Maybe."
11:59 AM <@DSJ> There's not much else in the office, Mable
12:00 PM <@DSJ> He could roll MED, or Cole could
12:00 PM <%aidenEldritch> 4df+6 [MED]

12:00 PM <%aidenEldritch> Jesus fucking christ.
12:00 PM <taylor_itkin> Tony examines the walls. Maybe a bullet caused that stain? Blood, caused by a wound?
12:00 PM <@DSJ> It's blood?
12:01 PM <@DSJ> It's probably just blood
12:01 PM <@DSJ> PERC, Tony
12:01 PM <taylor_itkin> 4df+4 time for some snooping
12:01 PM <Glacon> taylor_itkin: time for some snooping: 4 (4df+4=0, -, 0, +)
12:01 PM <taylor_itkin> Fuck
12:01 PM <@DSJ> There's very slight blood spatter on the floor near the chair
12:01 PM <SpookyBee> Maple grumbles, scratching her head. She looks for any other routes, not wanting to stay here much longer. "… Let's try ta get movin', I don't like havin' someone else's clothes on my ass."
12:01 PM <%aidenEldritch> "…blood." Cole frowns. "If there was a guy sittin' here, he hasn't got much of his head left, I don't think."
12:01 PM <Knyght> Irene goes to step back out of the office, and move to the next, going to peer in the same way.
12:02 PM <@DSJ> There's one door out, and two other offices of which you can easily kick the doors in
12:02 PM <SpookyBee> Maple goes for it!
12:02 PM <SpookyBee> 4df+6 MEL! WHOOAH!
12:02 PM <Glacon> SpookyBee: MEL! WHOOAH!: 6 (4df+6=+, 0, 0, -)
12:02 PM <taylor_itkin> Tony follows Irene
12:02 PM <taylor_itkin> .
12:02 PM <SpookyBee> She kicks one of the doors!
12:02 PM <ArseneLupin> Graham follows the others out
12:03 PM <Knyght> Irene tries the door out, perhaps? Is it kickable?
12:03 PM <@DSJ> You don't need to roll Melee for the office doors at this point
12:03 PM <@DSJ> The door out is another unlocked sliding door
12:04 PM <@DSJ> The other two offices tell similar stories to the first, but one of them has a note in English
12:04 PM <Knyght> Irene would then, take the handle, whistling back. "Hey, this one is unlocked."
12:04 PM <SpookyBee> Oooh okay. Maple just heads for the sliding door.
12:04 PM <%aidenEldritch> What's the note in English say?
12:05 PM <@DSJ> The note says 'Meet with Sherrod after work, to discuss the firings, and to get his compensation for translating his work.‘
12:06 PM <taylor_itkin> Tony walks behind Maple. "Anyone not grab a weapon back there? I’ve got an extra baton."
12:06 PM <ArseneLupin> "Does anyone else find it odd that whoever took us here provided us with weapons?"
12:06 PM <SpookyBee> "… Maybe. We'll have ta see what's goin' on."
12:06 PM <Knyght> Irene waits for her team by the sliding door. "I've got this rifle and one of those batons." She shrugs.
12:07 PM <taylor_itkin> Tony shrugs. He approaches the sliding door.
12:07 PM <%aidenEldritch> "Hm." Cole tries to look for any labels on the doors reading "Sherrod"
12:07 PM <%aidenEldritch> If there are any
12:07 PM <Knyght> Irene readies her rifle, stepping back from the door to let someone else open it, so she's prepared to fire.
12:07 PM <@DSJ> There aren't in here, but in the next room…
12:08 PM <@DSJ> PERC
12:08 PM <taylor_itkin> Tony takes the cue from Irene. He readies his baton, stands to the side, and throws the door open!
12:08 PM <%aidenEldritch> 4df+5 [PERC]
12:08 PM <Glacon> aidenEldritch: [PERC]: 5 (4df+5=0, +, -, 0)
12:08 PM <taylor_itkin> Oh!
12:09 PM <@DSJ> The next room has a small kitchen and an office, which Cole will notice has 'Sherrod' faintly stenciled on the door
12:09 PM → Elisabean joined (revE.tunaeP.elttiL|tseixeS#revE.tunaeP.elttiL|tseixeS)
12:09 PM <@DSJ> The door is also too tough to just kick in
12:09 PM <%aidenEldritch> Cole frowns and searches the kitchen for any keys.
12:09 PM <@DSJ> PERC
12:09 PM <%aidenEldritch> 4df+5 [PERC]
12:09 PM <Glacon> aidenEldritch: [PERC]: 5 (4df+5=-, 0, +, 0)
12:09 PM <taylor_itkin> Tony walks in. He checks the room for any security cameras.
12:10 PM <@DSJ> You don't find any, but you do find a safe with a numeric lock, 7 digits
12:10 PM <@DSJ> That was for Cole
12:10 PM <@DSJ> Tony, there's none
12:11 PM <ArseneLupin> Graham looks for anything he might be able to use as a makeshift lockpick
12:11 PM <taylor_itkin> Good to know. Tony walks around the kitchen, checking drawers for anything he could use to pick the lock.
12:11 PM <@DSJ> There's nothing to be found
12:12 PM <%aidenEldritch> Cole grimaces again. "If any of you lot can find a key to that office's door, that'd be a great help."
12:12 PM <Knyght> Irene maintains a defensive position, letting the others work out the issue. She's no good at lockpicking or safecracking anyway.
12:12 PM <taylor_itkin> Tony searches for a key, maybe he can find one.
12:12 PM <@DSJ> There's a stair well connected to this room, and the door's open
12:12 PM <@DSJ> You just can't find a key
12:12 PM <SpookyBee> Maple sighs, continuing on in her Walking Mode! "… Doesn't seem ta be a whole lot goin' on, here."
12:13 PM <taylor_itkin> Tony walks to the stairwell, then, gun at the ready. He peers inside the door.
12:13 PM <Knyght> Irene would slowly move towards the stairs. "Should we uh, take a walk up or down, whever this leads?"
12:13 PM <ArseneLupin> "Doesn't seem like we have any other options."
12:14 PM <SpookyBee> Maple enters the stairwell, heading down- "Probably more ta find down… We ain't here ta run away, after all."
12:14 PM <%aidenEldritch> Cole sighs. "Guess we head through the stairwell, then."
12:14 PM <taylor_itkin> Tony starts down the stairs.
12:14 PM <@DSJ> The stairwell goes down a few floors, into a dark corridor with a few unlocked labs to the side
12:15 PM <taylor_itkin> Tony checks the first lab, gun at the ready.
12:15 PM <SpookyBee> She heads into the corridor, poking her head into one of the labs and looking around!
12:15 PM <Knyght> Irene follows them down, backing up Tony
12:15 PM <ArseneLupin> Graham stays in the back and follows
12:15 PM <@DSJ> The labs are sterile, empty, save for one
12:16 PM <Knyght> And this one, entails what?
12:16 PM <taylor_itkin> ^
12:16 PM <@DSJ> The floor and walls of it are heavily cracked, with sediment and rock spilling onto the floor
12:17 PM <taylor_itkin> "The fuck…"
12:17 PM <@DSJ> Roots of something, wet, wrap around the walls from the cracks, and the table in it
12:17 PM <taylor_itkin> Tony pokes the roots with the baton.
12:17 PM <SpookyBee> "…" Maple heads into this lab, leaning down and inspecting the roots.
12:17 PM <@DSJ> It lashes at him!
12:17 PM <@DSJ> 4df+9 MELEE

12:18 PM <@DSJ> It severs that arm
12:18 PM <@DSJ> It falls to the floor, as you bleed.
12:18 PM <Knyght> Irene jumps back. "JESUS CHRIST."
12:18 PM <taylor_itkin> Tony screams.
12:18 PM <%aidenEldritch> "Holy shit!"
12:18 PM <taylor_itkin> Very loudly.
12:19 PM <SpookyBee> Maple jumps back- "Woah- Fuck!"
12:19 PM <ArseneLupin> "Crap!" Graham opens fire on the vine
12:19 PM <%aidenEldritch> 4df+6 [MED]
12:19 PM <Glacon> aidenEldritch: [MED]: 6 (4df+6=+, +, -, -)
12:19 PM <Knyght> Irene would attempt to fire on the vine!
12:19 PM <taylor_itkin> Tony falls backwards, clutching his now empty shoulder. "THAT IS NOT AN OKAY PLANT."
12:19 PM <@DSJ> The bullets do nothing. They sink into it, but no damage is done
12:19 PM <@DSJ> The vines spring forwards, chasing you with slow eventuality
12:20 PM <SpookyBee> Maple helps pull Tony out, before shutting the doors! "Everyone out!"
12:20 PM <Knyght> Irene would book it the hell out of there!
12:20 PM <%aidenEldritch> Cole runs the fuck awaaaaaay
12:20 PM <ArseneLupin> Graham runs out of the room while shooting the vine
12:20 PM <@DSJ> There's a way out forwards, into a tight metal corridor
12:20 PM <taylor_itkin> Tony wishes he could grab Maple's hand. Unfortunately, he lost his hand. He just accepts her help anyway. He runs.
12:21 PM <@DSJ> You can hear the vines grow as you run through it, and you can hear them stop at the shut door of the corridor
12:21 PM <SpookyBee> Maple pulls away from Tony now, checking her rifle and looking around the corridor… "Fuck…"
12:21 PM <@DSJ> Also, Cole, you stopped Tony's bleeding
12:22 PM <Knyght> Irene slumps against the wall, checking her rifle. "Bullets didn't do jack to that thing either… Whatever it is."
12:22 PM <@DSJ> The corridor is dark and smells rank with something. The walls drip
12:22 PM <taylor_itkin> Tony falls to his knees and stares at the floor.
12:22 PM <taylor_itkin> "Guys…"
12:22 PM <SpookyBee> Maple pulls the rifle's magazine out, looking at the bullets. Are they blanks, or live rounds?
12:22 PM <@DSJ> Live rounds
12:23 PM <taylor_itkin> "Guys…" Tony whispers.
12:23 PM <Knyght> Irene moves up to Tony. "Yeah…?"
12:23 PM <ArseneLupin> "What is it?" Graham sounds concerned
12:23 PM <SpookyBee> "Huh…" She reloads the magazine- "Relax, Tony. We'll get you out'a here… We got good people ta fix that shit up- It'll be good as new."
12:23 PM <taylor_itkin> "I…really liked that arm…" Tony appears to have gone into a bit of shock.
12:24 PM <@DSJ> The lights in this hall flicker on, showing it has some adjoining rooms
12:24 PM <Knyght> "You'll be fine… We'll be fine… I hope…" She sighs, going to press forward a bit to see what's up ahead.
12:24 PM <%aidenEldritch> "…Shit, really did ya." Cole grimaces and checks out some of the adjoining rooms.
12:24 PM <SpookyBee> Maple goes off to scout some of the rooms, trying the doors first.
12:24 PM <Knyght> If she could, she'd try the room closest to them.
12:24 PM <ArseneLupin> "I k-know it must hurt. Vivian can patch you up though. Get you a b-better arm."
12:25 PM <taylor_itkin> Tony nods absently. "I can not fight like this."
12:25 PM <@DSJ> The doors are open. They appear to be crew quarters.
12:25 PM <@DSJ> General PERC check, by the way
12:25 PM <SpookyBee> Maple slips into said quarters!
12:25 PM <Knyght> Irene would check carefully in hers.

12:26 PM <@DSJ> You might want to search quickly
12:26 PM <%aidenEldritch> "…Almonds."
12:26 PM <%aidenEldritch> "Cyanide."
12:26 PM <%aidenEldritch> "Whatever you're doing do it /fast./"
12:26 PM <SpookyBee> "… What?" Maple looks around- "Oh shit…" She tries to pull her onesie up over her nose, looking around for anything of use in this room!
12:26 PM <@DSJ> PERC to find useful stuff
12:26 PM <Knyght> Irene briefly searches, moving her shirt over her nose.

12:27 PM <taylor_itkin> you're right nvm no more bandana
12:27 PM <taylor_itkin> redact that
12:27 PM <@DSJ> Cole finds a passcode, the same number of numbers as needed for the safe. That they can't get to
12:27 PM <@DSJ> Graham and Irene find more Russian documents
12:28 PM <SpookyBee> "Everyone up! Airborn toxins- Let's go!" Maple looks for a new way out!
12:28 PM <SpookyBee> *airborne
12:28 PM <@DSJ> They also notice there isn't a door at the end of this hallway
12:28 PM <Knyght> Irene would pick them up and would turn back to follow her team.
12:28 PM <@DSJ> The almond smell gets stronger, much stronger
12:28 PM <taylor_itkin> Tony coughs.
12:28 PM <%aidenEldritch> Cole shudders and tries to not hyperventilate.
12:29 PM <SpookyBee> "…"
12:29 PM <Knyght> Irene starts to panic a bit.

12:29 PM <ArseneLupin> "We can find a way out. We've made our way out of worse situations." Graham sounds like he's trying to convince himself more than anything
12:29 PM <@DSJ> There's one. It needs a ten digit code. That you don't have
12:29 PM <taylor_itkin> Tony falls to the floor. The shock is starting to pass, and the pain is setting in.
12:30 PM <SpookyBee> "…" Can Maple make any kind of roll to randomly guess it? :|
12:30 PM <%aidenEldritch> (inb4 10d10)
12:30 PM <Knyght> Irene stumbles a bit, coughing.
12:30 PM <@DSJ> Roll a d20, get a 20 and you guess correctly

12:30 PM <Glacon> SpookyBee: Dice for the Dice God: 7 (d20=7)
12:30 PM <SpookyBee> Fucc
12:31 PM <SpookyBee> Maple fucks up, before returning to the door they came through- "Fuck… We gotta go back."
12:31 PM <taylor_itkin> Tony looks up at her. "No!"
12:31 PM <@DSJ> The gas gets to you, but you have just enough strength to peel the door open as vines rush in
12:31 PM <SpookyBee> Maple hasn't opened it just yet.
12:32 PM <@DSJ> Ah.
12:32 PM <@DSJ> There's no way of telling how many vines are behind the door
12:32 PM <SpookyBee> Assuming this happens, Maple slumps on the ground, looking around for Cole.
12:32 PM <%aidenEldritch> Cole staggers her way over to Maple, sobbing a little.
12:33 PM <@DSJ> Assuming she opens the door, the vines that pour in pull her apart
12:33 PM <SpookyBee> Maple pulls her down, hugging her tight!
12:33 PM <ArseneLupin> Graham falls to his knees "It can't end like this. It just can't!"
12:33 PM <Knyght> Irene sits, curling up into the fetal position, tucking her head against her knees. "Sorry… Carson… I won't make it back…"
12:33 PM <SpookyBee> She still didn't open the door.
12:33 PM <taylor_itkin> Tony starts blacking out. "I..never..found..anyone.."
12:33 PM <@DSJ> Oh, sorry
12:33 PM <%aidenEldritch> Cole hugs back.
12:34 PM <ArseneLupin> ~Everyone. I'm sorry. I hope Janelle doesn't cry too much. I don't want her to suffer~
12:34 PM <Knyght> Irene mutters goodbyes to her friends, staying off to herself.
12:34 PM <@DSJ> You all die. And wake up, in the room you started in, damp with some sort of liquid. The number on your hand reads 02. The watches you have account for the time you just spent
12:34 PM <taylor_itkin> (does tony have an arm again)
12:35 PM <Knyght> Do they, remember dying?
12:35 PM <ArseneLupin> Do we remember what happened?
12:35 PM <@DSJ> Roll a d10, DC is a 3 for not mutating slightly

12:36 PM <SpookyBee> "…" Maple looks over at Irene, squinting. "… Huh."
12:36 PM <%aidenEldritch> The first thing Cole does is go tacklehug Maple.
12:36 PM <@DSJ> You all have no scars, no tattoos, nothing like that
12:36 PM <%aidenEldritch> "Holy shit we're not dead"
12:36 PM <SpookyBee> Maple is tacklehugged- "Ach!"
12:36 PM <SpookyBee> "What the hell jus' happened…?"
12:36 PM <Knyght> Irene… Pauses, pulling her hand up to her face, poking her… Eye… "What the hell…"
12:36 PM <taylor_itkin> Tony stands up, completely shocked. "What. The fuck."
12:36 PM <%aidenEldritch> (afk for a bit to get lunch)
12:36 PM <Knyght> Irene checks over herself, her tattoo is gone? Her scars, damage to her body, her accident before? All gone?
12:36 PM <ArseneLupin> "We're not dead? We're not dead!" Graham cries and hugs whoever's closest to him
12:37 PM <@DSJ> All gone
12:37 PM <@DSJ> The rack of weaponry lacks whatever you took
12:37 PM <SpookyBee> Maple looks over at Irene, before checking herself, then brushing her own tat-less arm. "…"
12:37 PM <taylor_itkin> Who is closest to Graham?
12:37 PM <Knyght> Irene gets a hug!
12:37 PM <Knyght> I guess?
12:37 PM <Knyght> I volunteer.
12:37 PM <ArseneLupin> Irene it is then
12:38 PM <Knyght> Irene is huggged, patting his back gently. "Thank christ… What the hell… Happ…-ened…" She pauses, looking down to her hand.
12:38 PM <Knyght> " Oh-two…"
12:38 PM <SpookyBee> Maple gets to her feet, sighing and rubbing her head- "Must be that gas fuckin' with us…" She fetches a rifle and baton, checking her firearms over.
12:38 PM <Knyght> "Everyone check your hands…"
12:38 PM <taylor_itkin> Tony grabs a rifle and a baton. "Don't poke the fucking plants," he mutters to himself.
12:38 PM <SpookyBee> Maple does so! "… This said one before, right?"
12:39 PM <Knyght> Irene grabs a rifle. "It said one before…" She mumbles.
12:39 PM <Knyght> "And the watch thing."
12:39 PM <Knyght> Irene would look at hers?
12:39 PM <taylor_itkin> "It- yeah, it did."
12:39 PM <SpookyBee> Maple looks at the watch, frowning- "This is fucked."
12:39 PM <@DSJ> It reads however much time it's been since you started
12:39 PM <Knyght> "It's the same time though…"
12:40 PM <%aidenEldritch> Cole checks Backup Integrity after thoroughly hugging Maple.
12:40 PM <Knyght> Irene would immediately try to go out the sliding door, to check if the damage theyd done kicking the door is still there.
12:40 PM <taylor_itkin> Tony just kind of sits there. "How…you guys remember me losing an arm, right?"
12:40 PM <ArseneLupin> "We're alive." Graham whispers to himself one last time before grabbing weapons off the wall.
12:40 PM <Knyght> "Yeah, hold on." She shushes them for a second.
12:40 PM <SpookyBee> Maple rubs her head, then gives Cole a kiss on the cheek and hugging her tight- "… That was awful." She gets back over to the big metal door, looking around.
12:40 PM <@DSJ> The room is as you left it
12:41 PM <Knyght> Irene pauses, looking at it for a moment. "All the damage we caused is still here, guys." She'd call over, raising her rifle.
12:41 PM <%aidenEldritch> "…So we died, but we're alive now."
12:41 PM <taylor_itkin> "But none of the damage to /us/."
12:42 PM <Knyght> "What happened? Did someone, drag us out and patch us up…?"
12:42 PM <taylor_itkin> "Did anyone find anything noteworthy down in the gas-trap?"
12:42 PM <%aidenEldritch> Cole checks her #02 tattoo and goes pale. "We're number two."
12:42 PM <Knyght> "That doesn't make any sense…"
12:42 PM <SpookyBee> "We'll figure this shit out after- We need ta escape." Maple preps the rifle, heading out of the room!
12:42 PM <Knyght> Irene glances to Cole. "You have the same feeling, I do?"
12:42 PM <SpookyBee> "… But we're still the same us. Let's keep goin'."
12:42 PM <%aidenEldritch> "We're… copies."
12:42 PM <taylor_itkin> Tony stops in his tracks. "That-" he gasps. "I was right."
12:43 PM <Knyght> Irene sighs, shaking her head. "Yeah…"
12:43 PM <taylor_itkin> "They backed-up our minds."
12:43 PM <%aidenEldritch> Cole looks very pale for a moment, before nodding slowly at Maple's order. "We should probably keep goin'."
12:43 PM <ArseneLupin> "That's crazy! We're us!"
12:43 PM <%aidenEldritch> "No use arguin' philosophy right now when we've still gotta get out of this place somehow."
12:43 PM <taylor_itkin> "We're us numero dos."
12:43 PM <Knyght> "Let's… Let's just solve this issue, first… Have a crisis later…" She mumbles…"
12:43 PM <%aidenEldritch> Does Cole remember the seven-digit safe code?
12:43 PM <taylor_itkin> "Guys, who actually looked around that room?"
12:43 PM <@DSJ> She does!
12:43 PM <SpookyBee> "And bodies. We're still sane, though, and we all remember our mamma's. But we need ta get the fuck out of this place."
12:44 PM <%aidenEldritch> "I gotta code to the safe in the kitchen. Might be useful trying that."
12:44 PM <ArseneLupin> "I- I found some more documents but they were in another language like the others."
12:44 PM <SpookyBee> "Right… To the kitchen, then."
12:44 PM <taylor_itkin> Tony nods. "Kitchen."
12:44 PM <%aidenEldritch> Off to the kitchen then, toot toot
12:44 PM <Knyght> "I found one or two myself." She shrugs, before following after them.
12:44 PM <ArseneLupin> Graham follows behind hesitantly
12:44 PM <taylor_itkin> "I- you guys remember me losing an arm, right? I didn't make that up?"
12:45 PM <SpookyBee> "Sure I remember- You won't stop bringin' it up."
12:45 PM <%aidenEldritch> Once they're there Cole tries the safe combination.
12:45 PM <ArseneLupin> "Let's not dwell on that."
12:45 PM <@DSJ> The code opens the kitchen safe, inside it is a key ring and a handheld welding thing?
12:46 PM <Knyght> Irene peeks. "What's that?"
12:46 PM <%aidenEldritch> Cole twirls the key ring around her finger and /grins/ when she finds the welding thing. "We've got a cuttin' torch, I think."
12:46 PM <SpookyBee> "…" Maple looks in- "Any of you know how ta use a cutter torch?"
12:46 PM <%aidenEldritch> "Seein' as we're tryin' to get through a mass of plant shit, I think it'll be helpful."
12:46 PM <taylor_itkin> "I do," Tony says.
12:46 PM <ArseneLupin> "We could burn the vines." He smiles
12:46 PM <taylor_itkin> "We are not touching the vines."
12:47 PM <%aidenEldritch> Cole hands it off to Tony. "Right, now this keyring has a date with destiny."
12:47 PM <%aidenEldritch> She tries the keyring on the Sherrod door.
12:47 PM <@DSJ> The keyring opens the door!
12:47 PM <SpookyBee> "… Or we could fuckin' burn the vines, Tony. It's kind'a more useful to get rid of a problem than step 'round it."
12:47 PM <taylor_itkin> Tony examines the blowtorch device. Does it have any gas in it?
12:47 PM <@DSJ> It has some sort of tank attached to it, yes
12:47 PM <Knyght> Irene stays near Cole to help her out in case something happens, also curiosity over the door.
12:47 PM <%aidenEldritch> What's in Sherrod's office?
12:47 PM <@DSJ> A desk, and two filepiles
12:48 PM <taylor_itkin> "My point, Maple, is if bullets, which are super-heated when they come out of a gun do not affect the vines," Tony starts, rolling his eyes.
12:48 PM <@DSJ> one in Russian, one in English
12:48 PM <%aidenEldritch> Cole starts searching through the filepiles.
12:48 PM <SpookyBee> "… That's fucking stupid."
12:48 PM <%aidenEldritch> The /English/ pile.
12:48 PM <taylor_itkin> "Also fact."
12:48 PM <SpookyBee> "No."

12:48 PM <ArseneLupin> "Fire and bullets are two very different things."
12:49 PM <%aidenEldritch> "What the nerd said. Now stop bickerin', both of you, or I'm gonna whap you with the baton."
12:49 PM <Knyght> Irene stays by the door, watching Cole for a moment, not wanting to crowd her work.
12:49 PM <%aidenEldritch> 4df+5 [PERC] for the filepile???
12:49 PM <taylor_itkin> "Whatever," Tony says. "If you want to burn the vines, be my guest. I won't go near them."

12:49 PM <SpookyBee> "Babe you know I'd like that." Maple raises a brow at Cole, before looking for anything else that might be useful in the office.
12:49 PM <@DSJ> The English files detail the work being done here, something about some serum, something about cybernetics, and something about organism replication, as well as botany

12:49 PM <ArseneLupin> Graham smiles at being called a nerd
12:50 PM <@DSJ> Cole also notices a firing notice
12:50 PM <%aidenEldritch> Cole grabs the botany papers and the firing notice. What's the firing notice say?
12:50 PM <@DSJ> Something about not needing nearly as much staff, and an offer of recommendations to other laba
12:51 PM <@DSJ> *labs
12:51 PM <%aidenEldritch> "Organism replication and botany. Seems relevant to our little predicament…" She goes to search the desk.
12:51 PM <Knyght> Irene waits for her team to inform her of this stuff, standing guard by the door still.
12:52 PM <@DSJ> The desk contains a really boring journal that makes it very clear he was under qualified and a dick, but doesn't yield anything useful
12:52 PM <ArseneLupin> "The organism replication would explain how the plant grew so fast." Graham is not even acknowledging the clone theory
12:52 PM <SpookyBee> "Righto…" She nods- "We should keep movin', we ain't gonna get anythin' done standin' around."
12:52 PM <taylor_itkin> "Fair enough," Tony says. He walks back through the door.
12:52 PM <Knyght> "I'm rearing to go…" She rolls her EYES.
12:53 PM <Knyght> EYES.
12:53 PM <Knyght> Irene would start down the hall again, to go and check the door leading into the stairwell?
12:53 PM <ArseneLupin> Graham follows the others
12:53 PM <@DSJ> The door leading to the stairwell is fine
12:53 PM <%aidenEldritch> "Seems like we've done all we can do here-" Cole frowns at Irene. "Weren't you wearin' an eyepatch when we came in?"
12:53 PM <@DSJ> The stairwell has the tips of vines at the bottom
12:54 PM <taylor_itkin> Tony draws a deep breath.
12:54 PM <Knyght> "I don't UNDERSTAND." She whines, having a quick breakdown before collecting herself. "I lost my eye five years ago… I have two eyes again…"
12:54 PM <taylor_itkin> "If that thing cuts off my arm again because I tried to burn it like you want me to," Tony warns, "I will fucking smack you." He says this to Maple.

1:21 PM <SpookyBee> "… The rest're in the vine-room, aren't they…"
1:21 PM <taylor_itkin> "God dammit."
1:21 PM <Knyght> Irene continues to wait. "Well, flamethrower… We still have it yeah?"
1:21 PM <taylor_itkin> Tony sighs and creeps toward the vine room. "Yes, give it here," he motions to Cole.
1:21 PM <SpookyBee> "Right- yeah." Maple nods.
1:22 PM <%aidenEldritch> Cole hands it to him.
1:22 PM <taylor_itkin> "I'll suck it up," he tells them. He enters the plant room.

1:24 PM <@DSJ> He loses an arm and a leg, but in the process the vines burn. And the torch breaks some as it falls
1:24 PM <@DSJ> But minor success!
1:25 PM <Knyght> Irene peeks in the room from where she's propped up.
1:25 PM <taylor_itkin> "FUCK" he falls.
1:25 PM <SpookyBee> Maple waits for things to die down a bit- No pun intended- before wandering over and looking down at Tony. "… You want me to get it over with?"
1:25 PM <%aidenEldritch> Cole grabs the slightly bork torch.
1:26 PM <taylor_itkin> "Just-" he grits his teeth. "Fucking kill me. Fuck."
1:26 PM <Knyght> Irene shambles her way inside the best she can, sighing.
1:26 PM <@DSJ> You might be able to fix it, but for now it's kaput

1:26 PM <SpookyBee> Maple looks at the others, before leveling her rifle, and ventilates Tony's frontal lobe to speed things along.
1:27 PM <Knyght> Irene just gives her a nod, watching.
1:27 PM <%aidenEldritch> The practical kind of euthanasia debate. Cole flinches slightly when the shot goes off.
1:27 PM <@DSJ> Tony is dead
1:27 PM <@DSJ> The three of you still have the cyanide to deal with

1:28 PM <SpookyBee> Maple looks to Irene, nodding- "Do ye'r thing."
1:29 PM <Knyght> Irene would nod, and go to enter the cyanide consumed chamber, giving a brief salute to her comrades before entering.
1:29 PM <%aidenEldritch> Cole salutes back.
1:29 PM <SpookyBee> Maple Salootz
1:29 PM <@DSJ> d10+10, 20 is a success
1:30 PM <Knyght> She bites down on her lower lip to keep from screaming at the pain of having to shamble in, enough to cause her mouth to start to bleed profusely.
1:30 PM <@DSJ> You're all already in the cyanide chamber, given you searched the labs
1:30 PM <Knyght> Oh.

1:31 PM <Knyght> Irene finishes le puzzle in her dying breath, collapsing.
1:31 PM <taylor_itkin> WOW.
1:31 PM <SpookyBee> Maple blinks, looking at Irene- "… Should we wait?"
1:31 PM <SpookyBee> *At Cole
1:32 PM <%aidenEldritch> I think the cyanide got all of us
1:32 PM <Knyght> Irene would crawl towards them but, unfortunately, she dies quickly after.
1:32 PM <SpookyBee> *Oh redact then
1:32 PM <Knyght> I don't suppose… Did she see any of their bodies in that room?

1:36 PM <@DSJ> (fuck rip)
1:36 PM <SpookyBee> (So the only difference here is Irene? ;w; )
1:36 PM <%aidenEldritch> (apparently)
1:36 PM <Knyght> (Irene gets slightly darker skin? Like, an ethnicity change or, just darker?
1:37 PM <@DSJ> Maple's like, near albino at this point
1:37 PM <@DSJ> Darker in the latter sense
1:37 PM <SpookyBee> "…" Maple blinks, looking down at herself. "… The fuck…?"
1:37 PM <taylor_itkin> Tony glances up. "Hey, welcome back." He's sitting against a wall.
1:37 PM <@DSJ> Graham's skin also gets much lighter
1:38 PM <Knyght> Irene immediately curls up into the fetal position, having a mini panic attack now for… Some reason.
1:38 PM <SpookyBee> Maple hops down, shuffling over to Irene and giving her a supportive back-pat- "… You okay?"
1:38 PM <taylor_itkin> Tony moves to Irene and kneels next to her. He rubs her back. "Hey, it's alright…"
1:38 PM <ArseneLupin> Albino like as well?
1:39 PM <@DSJ> Depends on how pale he was already
1:39 PM <Knyght> "I saw all of us…" She mumbles. "All dead… Like… We remembered… Our original bodies…"
1:39 PM <%aidenEldritch> "…Maple, I think you'd burst inta flames if you touched the sunlight."
1:39 PM <Knyght> "We are just clones…"
1:39 PM <ArseneLupin> He was average. Not that pale not that tanned
1:39 PM <SpookyBee> "… Irene, hush. You're you. We're all still us."
1:39 PM <taylor_itkin> Tony makes Irene look at him. "We have the same memories. We may have different physical bodies, but we are ourselves."
1:39 PM <Knyght> Irene is a bit more tan, like she's been out at the beach!
1:39 PM <taylor_itkin> He says this gently.
1:40 PM <Knyght> I think?
1:40 PM <@DSJ> He's paler, then, but not albino, and she is
1:40 PM <ArseneLupin> Graham looks at himself with disbelief. "This is strange."
1:40 PM <%aidenEldritch> "Huh. Skin-tone changes…" Cole checks the BACKUP INTEGRITY meter on her watch.
1:40 PM <Knyght> Irene slowly stretches out, slamming her fist into the ground. "F-fuck… I'm /not/ liking this at all…" She sighs, pushing herself up. "'least my feet aren't destroyed…"
1:41 PM <SpookyBee> She nods- "Sounded like you got the door open in there, though, Irene… We can keep goin'- We gotta get the fuck out of here."
1:41 PM <Knyght> "Was a fucking lucky guess too…" She grumbles, going to once again take a rifle from the wall.
1:41 PM <taylor_itkin> Tony opens his arms. "Want a hug, Irene? It sounds stupid, but, I don't know…it feels appropriate."
1:41 PM <taylor_itkin> Orrrrr not.
1:41 PM <%aidenEldritch> (Irene leaves Tony hanging as she leaves)
1:41 PM <%aidenEldritch> Cole arms herself and heads off downstairs.
1:41 PM <taylor_itkin> (tony literally just stands there)
1:41 PM <Knyght> Irene pats his shoulder. "Save it for when and if we actually make it out… Alright? Thanks." She shoots him a nervous smile but… She's not really in the right mind for hugs right now.
1:42 PM <SpookyBee> Maple grabs a rifle, herself, nodding. "… Well, let's get on the road, then. The sooner we're out, the sooner this shithole gets turned into a crater."
1:42 PM <taylor_itkin> Tony shrugs. It was meant in a reassuring way, but whatever. He grabs a rifle and a baton.
1:42 PM <ArseneLupin> Graham grabs weapons and heads down stairs. "I wonder how we keep getting patched up? However we are it sure is lucky."
1:42 PM <taylor_itkin> "Let's not dwell on that right now," Tony says.
1:43 PM <Knyght> Irene keeps going. "I just said, did I not? Our bodies are there… We just, keep getting woken up brand new."
1:43 PM <taylor_itkin> "Just…don't think about it. Focus on the mission."
1:43 PM <@DSJ> The way down is mostly unimpeded, and the cyanide is too dispersed to be toxic as you make your way forwards
1:43 PM <ArseneLupin> "There has to be a better explanation than that." He's still in denial
1:44 PM <SpookyBee> Maple exits the main room, heading out and past the cyanide hall!
1:44 PM <taylor_itkin> "And hopefully we find it," Tony says as he follows Maple.
1:44 PM <Knyght> Irene would stop, going to point Graham at the room. "Look."
1:44 PM <SpookyBee> She heads to the door Irene got opened!
1:44 PM <Knyght> Irene would assumingly see the bodies of the copies that just died? And the previous bodies?
1:44 PM <%aidenEldritch> Cole takes a moment to drag the bodies in the room to a less used space, for the sake of convenience
1:44 PM <@DSJ> The bodies are all there until Cole moves them
1:44 PM <taylor_itkin> Tony examines his dead bodies. ~That's…fucked up.~
1:45 PM <Knyght> Irene helps quickly move the bodies.
1:45 PM <taylor_itkin> Tony as well.
1:45 PM <%aidenEldritch> Once they're all dragged off to a place where they won't crowd the hallway, Cole dusts her hands down with a mildly nauseated expression on her face and follows Maple.
1:45 PM <ArseneLupin> Graham falls silent as he sees his own corpse. "That's us." He says quietly
1:45 PM <SpookyBee> Maple doesn't look. "… Ground rules. Anyone gets horribly maimed- Shoot them. Try ta keep the pain to a minimum."
1:45 PM <taylor_itkin> "Agreed."
1:45 PM <Knyght> Irene follows her pals, nodding. "I'd expect the same for me and anyone else, yeah."
1:46 PM <%aidenEldritch> Do they have the broken torch?
1:46 PM <taylor_itkin> "And Maple," Tony says.
1:46 PM <@DSJ> The next room is wide and hums with machinery. Tangled mechanical things move and turn inside it, all under a maze of catwalks
1:46 PM <taylor_itkin> "Thank you for…doing exactly that, last time."
1:46 PM <SpookyBee> "… Right."
1:46 PM <@DSJ> They do if they brought it with them
1:46 PM <%aidenEldritch> Cole picked it up off her corpse, then.
1:46 PM <taylor_itkin> Tony gazes around the room.
1:47 PM <%aidenEldritch> She examines the mess of catwalks. "…Huh."
1:47 PM <%aidenEldritch> 4df+5 [PERC] to find an exit?
1:47 PM <Glacon> aidenEldritch: [PERC] to find an exit?: 5 (4df+5=+, -, +, -)
1:47 PM <taylor_itkin> "Not what I was expecting."
1:47 PM <taylor_itkin> Can Tony roll an engineering to see if he can figure out what the machines do?
1:47 PM <@DSJ> There's a couple, but the catwalk is in disrepair and the machinery is angry
1:47 PM <@DSJ> He can
1:47 PM <SpookyBee> "…. This is crazy. You think this is where they're rebuildin' us?"
1:47 PM <taylor_itkin> 4df+2 what the fuck
1:47 PM <Glacon> taylor_itkin: what the fuck: 4 (4df+2=-, +, +, +)
1:47 PM <Knyght> Irene sighs, glancing around. "Well, what now…"
1:48 PM <@DSJ> This is partials a pumping station, but it has other uses of which you're not sure.
1:49 PM <taylor_itkin> Tony communicates this to the group.
1:50 PM <%aidenEldritch> Cole gingerly starts walking down the catwalk, testing it with her baton in case it breaks and she ends up being juiced by the machinery.
1:50 PM <SpookyBee> Maple advances, keeping eyes open for threats.
1:50 PM <Knyght> Irene follows carefully behind Maple and Cole.
1:50 PM <ArseneLupin> Graham follows the others from a safe distance in a bit of a haze
1:50 PM <taylor_itkin> Tony follows, bringing up the rear, rifle raised. Just in case.

1:52 PM <%aidenEldritch> Splat.
1:52 PM <@DSJ> Cole, STR to hold on and maybe not die yet
1:52 PM <Knyght> Irene scrambles to get a solid hold.

1:52 PM <SpookyBee> "COLE!" Maple gasps, turning!
1:52 PM <@DSJ> She falls into the machinery and is crushed up to her sternum in gears
1:53 PM <taylor_itkin> "FUCK."
1:53 PM <Knyght> Irene would, as per the blood pact, immediately go to end her suffering…
1:53 PM <@DSJ> Ranged to make sure you hit her
1:53 PM <SpookyBee> Maple covers her mouth, choking on her own voice and looking away.

1:55 PM <@DSJ> She dies cleanly
1:55 PM <Knyght> Irene ends Cole's suffering with a loud bout of swearing, going to try to continue down the catwalk.
1:55 PM <SpookyBee> Maple looks to Graham- "… Whatever's goin' on, it might not be on purpose. This looks like some shit experiment gone horridly wrong."
1:55 PM <@DSJ> They make it to the other end, and reach a large gap
1:56 PM <@DSJ> That maybe can be jumped
1:56 PM <taylor_itkin> Tony tries to judge the distance.
1:56 PM <taylor_itkin> PERC?
1:56 PM <ArseneLupin> "If this was an accident then who did this to us?! Who put us in that room?!"
1:56 PM <@DSJ> Sure

1:56 PM <taylor_itkin> "I don't know. This is fucked. Let's figure it out."
1:58 PM <@DSJ> It's far enough to make in a running leap, maybe
1:58 PM <taylor_itkin> Tony shrugs. Nothing to lose, right? "I'm gonna jump," he tells the others, taking a running start.
1:58 PM <@DSJ> Agility

1:59 PM <taylor_itkin> Nice.

2:01 PM <Knyght> Irene finds a wot?
2:01 PM <@DSJ> another way around on the catwalk to an exit
2:02 PM <Knyght> Irene would follow said path.
2:02 PM <ArseneLupin> Graham follows silently
2:03 PM <@DSJ> It leads you very nearly to the door, but noninsulated wires block your path
2:03 PM <@DSJ> Someone could get them out of the way, but it's definitely hurt
2:03 PM <Knyght> Irene looks. "What if we throw ourselves onto them, clear them out and then… When we come back we can pass?"

2:06 PM <Knyght> "Yep…"
2:07 PM <ArseneLupin> "On the count of three?"
2:07 PM <Knyght> Irene nods.
2:08 PM <ArseneLupin> "One. Two. Three." At the count of three Graham tries to move the wires

2:12 PM <Knyght> Irene tries to continue onward.
2:12 PM <Knyght> As far as she can make it.
2:12 PM <@DSJ> She finds herself in another corridor with offices, but she finds herself a bit too weak to deal with the doors
2:13 PM <Knyght> Irene slumps back… Any other way out? Anything to do? Anywhere to go?
2:14 PM <@DSJ> She can keep moving forward and at least scout ahead
2:15 PM <Knyght> Irene would do so.
2:16 PM <@DSJ> There's a locked combination door, and a dead body, too decomposed to be identified. There's a note pinned to his chest with a code and some writing
2:17 PM <Knyght> Irene would check it over.
2:19 PM <@DSJ> It reads 4657578 and 'TO WHOEVER CAN READ THIS- THIS NEXT SECTION IS ALMOST PURE DEATH. PREPARE YOURSELF FOR IT. TAKE SOLACE IN THAT IT CAN BE BEATEN. I'M SORRY YOU'RE HERE. WE ALL ARE'
2:21 PM <@DSJ> And Irene finally dies, then
2:21 PM <Knyght> Irene practices it to memory, taking a few minutes. She pauses, waits. Not wanting though to have to jump to her death…
2:21 PM <Knyght> And then she dies.

2:25 PM <@DSJ> Bee you can choose to fail if you want
2:25 PM <SpookyBee> FAILURE
2:25 PM <@DSJ> Graham's hair darkens drastically, Tony's sort of does, Irene and Cole's lightens drastically
2:25 PM <@DSJ> as for Maple
2:26 PM <%aidenEldritch> (Maple's turns blue)
2:26 PM <ArseneLupin> So what color would it be now? A dirty blonde?
2:26 PM <SpookyBee> d5
2:26 PM <Glacon> SpookyBee: 4 (d5=4)
2:26 PM <@DSJ> Yep. Maple's hair darkens a fair amount too
2:27 PM <@DSJ> You all notice there's a 6 on your hand now, and very few guns left
2:27 PM <Knyght> Irene has blonde hair now…
2:27 PM <SpookyBee> "… Six? Did… We miss a few deaths?"
2:27 PM <SpookyBee> Maple looks at her watch.
2:28 PM <Knyght> Irene wakes up again, sighing. She glances to Graham. "You tell anyone about that, I'll kill ya."
2:28 PM <ArseneLupin> "That's not right." He looks at the back up meter
2:28 PM <taylor_itkin> Tony grabs a gun. "I'm done caring, honestly."
2:28 PM <SpookyBee> Maple's hair is blood-rust now! Nearly black with a tinge of crimson.
2:28 PM <@DSJ> The time is about thirty minutes off where it should be
2:28 PM <SpookyBee> And the Backup Status?
2:28 PM <%aidenEldritch> Cole whistles at Maple's new hair colour, then notices the #06. "Oh, shit."
2:28 PM <%aidenEldritch> "We're missin' a couple bodies."
2:28 PM <@DSJ> Still the same, so far
2:28 PM <taylor_itkin> "Wait, what?"
2:29 PM <SpookyBee> "… This ain't good- We need ta keep movin'. Irene, you were the last 'ere- What was going on on your end?"
2:29 PM <%aidenEldritch> Cole fidgets with her hair. "…I've gone grey. Weird."
2:29 PM <SpookyBee> "…" Maple looks her over a moment, squinting and nodding- "… It works on ya."
2:29 PM <Knyght> Irene nods, jumping up, shouting out. "4657578!"
2:30 PM <%aidenEldritch> Cole yelps as Irene explodes out in numbers. "Alright, alright- I'm guessin' that's a code for a door somewhere down the line, yeah?"
2:30 PM <taylor_itkin> Tony winces. "46 what now?"
2:30 PM <SpookyBee> Maple finally grabs another gun, and steps out of the room! "Let's get to it, loves."
2:30 PM <ArseneLupin> Graham grabs a gun. "Lets finish this before we run out of guns."
2:30 PM <Knyght> "It's the last thing I remember before I died." She mumbles, getting up and grabbing a gun.
2:31 PM <taylor_itkin> Tony practically storms out the sliding door. "I am so sick of dying. Worst day ever."
2:32 PM <ArseneLupin> "That's an understatement."
2:32 PM <SpookyBee> "We gotta keep movin', we gotta be close ta the end…"
2:32 PM <%aidenEldritch> Cole joins Maple in rushing to the end!
2:32 PM <Knyght> Irene would trek down with everyone else, all the way to where she had died.
2:32 PM <taylor_itkin> "My thoughts exactly." Tony doesn't even stop. He just marches. By now, he's already in the kitchen area.
2:33 PM <@DSJ> The door's open, Irene
2:33 PM <Knyght> Irene would peek in.
2:33 PM Soulless → %Soulless|Dreamin
2:34 PM <@DSJ> and before you lies something like hell. You're not sure why there seems to be such little regard for safety here, but what used to be a walkway has collapsed into a conveyor belt of machines
2:34 PM <taylor_itkin> "Fucking wonderful."
2:34 PM <SpookyBee> "…"
2:34 PM <@DSJ> There's a shut off, but it'll be a bitch to reach
2:34 PM <%aidenEldritch> Cole ponders.
2:35 PM <taylor_itkin> Tony looks for any possible ways to not have to go through the death machine.
2:35 PM <%aidenEldritch> "We /do/ have a couple corpses we could stack up on top of one another."
2:35 PM <@DSJ> You see the unaccounted deaths on it
2:35 PM <SpookyBee> Maple looks over the side of the conveyor belt- "… I'll go first." What's down there?
2:35 PM <taylor_itkin> Alternate paths, bridges, anything.
2:35 PM <ArseneLupin> "I'm so tired of dying." Is the shut off a switch or a button?
2:36 PM <@DSJ> The conveyor belt first pulverizes the metal or people on it then cuts it, then burns it in bursts, and then packages it
2:36 PM <taylor_itkin> Tony searches for an alternate route.
2:36 PM <@DSJ> There's unfortunately no way around it
2:36 PM <taylor_itkin> Tony is fucked.
2:36 PM <SpookyBee> 4df+4 Maple looks for a way not around this, but a way to cheat it.
2:36 PM <Glacon> SpookyBee: Maple looks for a way not around this, but a way to cheat it.: 7 (4df+4=+, +, +, 0)
2:36 PM <SpookyBee> …
2:37 PM <@DSJ> She could try getting on top of the various obstacles instead of being fast enough
2:37 PM <SpookyBee> Maple also thinks a moment- "… Hey, we've got guns. I feel like we forgot about that."
2:37 PM <taylor_itkin> …
2:37 PM <taylor_itkin> "I'm a ranged weapons expert. I could shoot the button."
2:38 PM <SpookyBee> "DON'T. Shoot the button."
2:38 PM <taylor_itkin> "I thought not."
2:38 PM <ArseneLupin> "How good is your throwing arm?"
2:38 PM <taylor_itkin> "I mean, I can aim a gun. I could probably throw accurately."
2:38 PM <SpookyBee> "Mine's actually pretty good, if I'm gonna be honest."
2:38 PM <Knyght> "I can lob something a good distance, probably."
2:38 PM <taylor_itkin> "I know I can throw /far/."
2:38 PM <ArseneLupin> "Why don't we throw a baton at it? It's safer than using bullets."
2:38 PM <SpookyBee> "But I was gonna say we could just, you know… Shoot the /machines/."
2:39 PM <taylor_itkin> "No idea where the circuitry is, and who's to say it won't ricochet?"
2:40 PM <SpookyBee> "I mean, I'm assumin' at least /one/ of you has some kind'a firearm trainin'? And you don't gotta hit circuitry, just break the shit."
2:40 PM <SpookyBee> "Plus… We got a surpluss'a guns back there."
2:40 PM <%aidenEldritch> "Could we jam the machines with all our leftover dead bodies?"
2:40 PM <ArseneLupin> "I mean i'm a decent shot."

3:00 PM <@DSJ> The belt begins to repair and improve itself. The walkway raises up and fixes, but Graham is soundly stuck

3:12 PM <Knyght> Irene sighs. "We're… Starting to forget… Time passing…"
3:12 PM <%aidenEldritch> "Does that have anythin' to do with the weird… space we go to whenever we die?"
3:12 PM <SpookyBee> "… What's this thing mean… The percent…?"
3:13 PM <SpookyBee> "Fuck it… We gotta keep pressin' on."
3:13 PM <%aidenEldritch> "I think it means how good our copies are."
3:13 PM <%aidenEldritch> "70%… that ain't good…"
3:13 PM <taylor_itkin> "That's creepy."
3:13 PM <ArseneLupin> "We cant keep coming back forever."
3:13 PM <%aidenEldritch> "Ugh. We gotta keep movin' on."
3:13 PM <taylor_itkin> Tony snatches a gun and trudges down the hallway.
3:14 PM <SpookyBee> Maple heads on out!
3:14 PM <Knyght> Irene follows along!
3:14 PM <taylor_itkin> Tony doesn't stop until he gets to wherever the story picks up.
3:14 PM <taylor_itkin> ha.
3:15 PM <ArseneLupin> Graham grabs a gun and baton and walks until he finds the plot
3:15 PM <@DSJ> You navigate all the way to a small door in the toxic gas chamber that's kinda full of dead people, but not gas!
3:15 PM <%aidenEldritch> Cole makes a nauseated face at the dead bodies.
3:15 PM <SpookyBee> Our corpses?
3:15 PM <Knyght> Irene would cautiously step over her many dead bodies to try and get through!
3:15 PM <@DSJ> Yep, yours!
3:15 PM <SpookyBee> Maple groans a little.
3:15 PM <taylor_itkin> Tony is unfazed at this point.
3:16 PM <ArseneLupin> Graham winces. "I refuse to see myself dead again. We're finishing this now."
3:16 PM <taylor_itkin> "Hopefully.
3:16 PM <taylor_itkin> "
3:17 PM <SpookyBee> "… Why didn't we use the blowtorch ta cut our way out'a here?"
3:17 PM <@DSJ> Do you open the door?
3:17 PM <ArseneLupin> Graham stops walking for a second. "We really should of tried that."
3:17 PM <SpookyBee> She does!
3:18 PM <%aidenEldritch> "It broke."
3:18 PM <SpookyBee> "I mean… When we first got it."
3:18 PM <%aidenEldritch> "Either way, I'm pretty sure I had it on me when I got dropped into the gears that first time."
3:19 PM <taylor_itkin> "No way it survived that."
3:19 PM <Knyght> Irene just shrugs, going to push open the door slowly.
3:19 PM <%aidenEldritch> "Let's just go through the door…"
3:19 PM <@DSJ> After the door lies a cave, and in the cave sits a manyfaced, doughy wet thing. It's very form wriggles as it rises to look at your on its five arachnid legs, and stretches out its fierce claws
3:19 PM <SpookyBee> Maple nods!
3:19 PM <SpookyBee> "…"
3:19 PM <SpookyBee> Maple just kind of
3:19 PM <SpookyBee> looks at it.

3:35 PM <@DSJ> And now…

3:38 PM <SpookyBee> d5 Assuming that's good for le reroll
3:38 PM <@DSJ> Tony looks amazing now, but Cole looks worse. Irene looks a lot nicer too, but Graham's pretty much the same
3:38 PM <Glacon> SpookyBee: Assuming that's good for le reroll: 1 (d5=1)
3:38 PM <SpookyBee> Are you fucking kidding me
3:38 PM <@DSJ> Maple also looks a little worse
3:38 PM <ArseneLupin> (Why is Graham the same?)
3:38 PM <@DSJ> wait nvm missed the roll
3:38 PM <@DSJ> He also now looks great
3:39 PM <taylor_itkin> Tony grins.
3:39 PM <ArseneLupin> Graham doesn't know what his face looks like so he wouldn't react
3:39 PM <Knyght> Irene looks a tad better, has blonde hair, green-cyan eyes now, and has tanner skin. I think that covers all the changes?
3:39 PM <taylor_itkin> Tony just has a good feeling about life right now.
3:39 PM <@DSJ> yep
3:40 PM <ArseneLupin> Graham is paler, has auburn eyes, dirty blonde hair, and is suddenly handsome.
3:40 PM <%aidenEldritch> Cole is taller, has grey hair, bluish-brown(?!) eyes and darker skin, and looks a bit shit
3:40 PM <@DSJ> Not that much worse, just not as good
3:40 PM <taylor_itkin> Tony is amazing. Just imagine, like, handsome squidward. But Tony.
3:42 PM <SpookyBee> Maple sits up, feeling like shit.
3:42 PM <@DSJ> … let's go with musculature for that
3:42 PM <@DSJ> not looks
3:42 PM <@DSJ> So it's more just 'muscle definition vs softness
3:42 PM <Knyght> So Irene goes from being stocky to more feminine?
3:43 PM <Knyght> Or opposite, more muscle?
3:43 PM <@DSJ> .. actually yea meant it the other way but I like it being hard 2 soft
3:43 PM <%aidenEldritch> Cole looks somewhat softer, then
3:43 PM <SpookyBee> She rubs her face, and shakes her head as she gets up- "… I'm gonna go stick my head in a blender when we get out'a here."
3:44 PM <@DSJ> Cole'd look way more buff, even if her muscles didn't change
3:44 PM <@DSJ> As would Maple
3:44 PM <Knyght> Irene goes opposite then? Kinda confuz
3:44 PM <%aidenEldritch> Cole glances down at herself. "…Huh."
3:44 PM <@DSJ> Basically, 1 is defined, 5 is soft
3:45 PM <SpookyBee> Wait what
3:45 PM <Knyght> Irene has apparently gone from stocky, muscular bruiser to, a more feminine figure!
3:45 PM <SpookyBee> I'm really confused
3:45 PM <Knyght> She surprisingly, isn't happy about that.
3:45 PM aidenEldritch → %awayEldritch
3:45 PM <ArseneLupin> Graham didn't really have defined muscles anyways so he probably wouldn't notice
3:45 PM <@DSJ> … right let's worry about this later and get back to the run
3:46 PM <Knyght> ^
3:46 PM <Knyght> I'll just stick to what I said? No idea.
3:46 PM <taylor_itkin> Tony trudges down the hallway. "Let's get this over with again."
3:46 PM <Knyght> Irene makes her way down the hall, taking another rifle. "Yep."
3:46 PM <SpookyBee> "Let's go kill that fuckin' thing already…"
3:46 PM <ArseneLupin> "One more time I guess."
3:46 PM <taylor_itkin> Tony took a rifle.
3:46 PM <ArseneLupin> As did Graham
3:47 PM <@DSJ> As you trudge back, you find it in a pool of probably blood, trying to drag itself back into its cave. The ground is littered with you
3:47 PM <Knyght> Irene offers a pot shot in response!
3:48 PM <taylor_itkin> Tony fires.
3:48 PM <Knyght> 4df+6 (4+2)
3:48 PM <Glacon> Knyght: (4+2): 5 (4df+6=+, 0, -, -)
3:48 PM <taylor_itkin> 4df+8
3:48 PM <Glacon> taylor_itkin: 5 (4df+8=0, -, -, -)
3:48 PM <ArseneLupin> Graham empties his magazine
3:48 PM <ArseneLupin> 4df+4
3:48 PM <Glacon> ArseneLupin: 2 (4df+4=-, -, -, +)
3:48 PM <@DSJ> It dies
3:48 PM <taylor_itkin> "Finally."
3:48 PM <SpookyBee> "… That was… Easy."
3:49 PM <SpookyBee> "Well, then again, we did jus' spend five minutes fillin' it with hot lead."
3:49 PM <ArseneLupin> "Not for the past twenty versions of us."
3:49 PM <@DSJ> A door in the cave opens, an elevator
3:50 PM <taylor_itkin> Tony walks to the elevator.
3:50 PM <Knyght> Irene makes her way to the elevator.
3:50 PM <ArseneLupin> Graham takes the gun with him and walks to the elevator. "We better get our stuff back."
3:51 PM <@DSJ> It leads up to the lobby. Your things sit in boxes, along with fifty dollars and a thank you note for testing
3:51 PM <taylor_itkin> Tony grabs his gear. "What the fuck was this?"
3:51 PM <SpookyBee> "…"
3:51 PM <ArseneLupin> Graham angrily rips the note into as many pieces as he can
3:52 PM <SpookyBee> Maple looks to the others- "… Y'know, I'm glad we all came out'a that relatively… Normal."
3:52 PM <taylor_itkin> "If that guy who briefed us knew about this I am going to rip him SO many new ones."
3:53 PM <SpookyBee> "For the most part." She squints- "We all got our limbs, right? Two eyes, two arms, nobody's pregnant, nobody's got a tail… No extra mouths?"
3:53 PM <taylor_itkin> "Where did the pregnant one come from?"
3:53 PM <ArseneLupin> "That's one thing to be thankful for. The skin is gonna take a bit of getting used to though."
3:53 PM <@DSJ> Your car is parked outside. If you had to guess, in real time it's been an hour
3:54 PM <SpookyBee> "I dunno- You can never be too sure when it comes ta fucky biology shit. I don't want no monster-babies."
3:54 PM <Knyght> "I… I look terrible…" Irene looks into the car window, brushing her now blonde hair back.
3:54 PM <Knyght> Irene looks absolutely nothing like how she used to look. She's entirely different from when she entered.
3:54 PM <taylor_itkin> Tony walks up to Irene. "You don't look like you," he says. "But we have people that can fix that, don't we?"
3:55 PM <SpookyBee> "Oh hush- You look fine, Irene." Maple heads over, patting her back- "We're all in one piece, right?"
3:55 PM <Knyght> "Yep, I have more pieces than I came with, I guess." She blinks a few times.
3:56 PM <SpookyBee> "… At least there's that, eh?"
3:56 PM <Knyght> "Yep…" She'd sigh, hopping into the car.
3:56 PM <ArseneLupin> Graham looks at his reflection. "I think i'm gonna dye my hair back to blonde. Not a fan of this color."
3:56 PM <@DSJ> ~Fin as you drive back, assume you manage to convince the site you're you~
1:54 PM <%aidenEldritch> Cole exists or doesn't
1:54 PM <@DSJ> She does, in a manner. She can feel she's in a warm, dark void, with the consistency of jello
1:55 PM → Dr0Shadow|Specy_Spec joined (~chatzilla@E45078FC:23C0BCEC:F6B76DB:IP)
1:55 PM <%aidenEldritch> (It all, returns, to nothing)
1:55 PM <%aidenEldritch> Cole tries swimming through it
1:56 PM <@DSJ> She can. It feels comforting, nice
1:56 PM <%aidenEldritch> She giggles slightly as she swims. Wheee.
1:58 PM <@DSJ> Cole, as you swim, you feel your body grow
1:58 PM <@DSJ> Reform
1:59 PM <%aidenEldritch> She keeps swimming, then! ~Whoa.~
1:59 PM <@DSJ> Tony, you're there now too
2:00 PM <%aidenEldritch> Cole waves hey to Tony!
2:00 PM <@DSJ> As is Maple
2:00 PM <%aidenEldritch> And to Maple, too
2:00 PM <@DSJ> You can see each other's vague shapes reforming in here
2:00 PM <SpookyBee> "…" Maple blinks, swimming in place- ~What…?~
2:01 PM <SpookyBee> Maple tries to swim towards Cole!

2:01 PM <taylor_itkin> Tony glubs.
2:01 PM <taylor_itkin> ~The fuck?~ He swims for the others.
2:01 PM <%aidenEldritch> Cole swims for Maple!
2:02 PM <SpookyBee> This would be romantic if they didn't just both die in a gory display!
2:02 PM <taylor_itkin> Tony just kind of floats there, as he has no place being in the middle of that
2:03 PM tretter → tretterSleep
2:05 PM <SpookyBee> She tries to pull Cole into a hug, if she can!
2:05 PM <@DSJ> She can
2:06 PM <taylor_itkin> Tony feels awkward.
2:06 PM <SpookyBee> SHE HUG. Maple doesn't like dying. But she also doesn't like watching Cole die.
2:06 PM <%aidenEldritch> Cole hugg'd
2:07 PM <%aidenEldritch> She gives Maple a comfort smooch
2:07 PM <SpookyBee> D'aaaw smoochums! Can they talk at all, or just think?
2:08 PM <@DSJ> They can try talking
2:08 PM <SpookyBee> "… Cole?" She tries!
2:08 PM <SpookyBee> "Can you hear me?"
2:09 PM <@DSJ> You can all hear Maple, albeit with difficulty
2:09 PM <%aidenEldritch> "I can!"
2:09 PM <taylor_itkin> "…Yo."
2:09 PM <SpookyBee> "What's happening? This place is weird… I've never felt anything like this."
2:09 PM <@DSJ> Graham appears too
2:09 PM <%aidenEldritch> "There's the nerd."
2:10 PM <taylor_itkin> Tony turns. "Graham!"
2:10 PM <ArseneLupin> "Irene's still trucking on." He tries his best to smile
2:10 PM <%aidenEldritch> "I'm assumin' we're here sorta… in-between whenever we die and whenever we come back.
2:10 PM <taylor_itkin> "This is really weird. What are we swimming in?"
2:11 PM <SpookyBee> "… I bet she'd like to see this- At least ta know she's still her."
2:11 PM <SpookyBee> Maple looks back at her forming body.
2:11 PM <taylor_itkin> "Guys, I had a weird thought."
2:11 PM <ArseneLupin> "How can we be sure of that though?"
2:12 PM <SpookyBee> "Cus we remember everythin' we should."
2:12 PM <taylor_itkin> "The first time, we had a 1 tattooed on us. What if that was /copy/ 1? What if our original bodies are still alive, somewhere? Hooked into a machine or something, transmitting to these ones?"
2:12 PM <SpookyBee> "… You remember that elevator ride, Tony?"
2:13 PM <%aidenEldritch> Did their BACKUP QUALITY meters tell them anything, DSJ
2:13 PM <taylor_itkin> "Yes, but we were knocked out. How can we be sure that they didn't keep us under for long enough to do something like that?"
2:13 PM <SpookyBee> "… Considerin' the hall full of cyanide gas, it's a safe bet we weren't jus' knocked out."
2:13 PM <@DSJ> They don't have them
2:13 PM <@DSJ> They don't have clothes, or some organs or digits
2:14 PM <taylor_itkin> "It'd make as much sense as anything happening, but aI guess you're right…"
2:14 PM <%aidenEldritch> Oh well that makes their hug slightly more awkward
2:14 PM <SpookyBee> "…" Maple blinks, now realizing the lack of clothing as she looks at Cole.
2:14 PM <SpookyBee> "… Well, it was bound ta happen some time."
2:14 PM <%aidenEldritch> "…"
2:14 PM <%aidenEldritch> Cole coughs awkwardly. "Uh."
2:15 PM <ArseneLupin> Graham sighs. "To look on the bright side a bit, this will be one hell of a story to tell once we get back."
2:16 PM <SpookyBee> "… I don't think I wanna tell this story, Graham."
2:16 PM <ArseneLupin> "Yeah, me neither."
2:16 PM <%aidenEldritch> "Christ, I didn't think the afterlife'd be a peepshow."
2:17 PM <SpookyBee> "… I mean, you ain't sayin' you don't like it." Maple continues watching herself grow!
2:17 PM <@DSJ> It is fortunately pretty hard to see
2:17 PM <taylor_itkin> Tony is simply confused.
2:17 PM <%aidenEldritch> Cole makes a face at Maple.
2:19 PM <SpookyBee> How grown are all of them by now?
2:19 PM <@DSJ> Near completion
2:20 PM <SpookyBee> Maple sighs, letting the rest take its time to finish…
2:20 PM <ArseneLupin> Graham just lets himself float, taking this small moment of rest
2:21 PM <taylor_itkin> Tony as well. He closes his eyes.
2:21 PM <%aidenEldritch> Cole mentally steels herself for her next death.
2:22 PM <@DSJ> Irene exists for a while, but soon you all feel yourselves go slack and unconscious, and wake up again in the room.
2:22 PM <SpookyBee> More d10's?
2:22 PM <Knyght> Irene is repeating a code over and over under her breath.
2:34 PM → EdwardBuck117 joined • Soulless → %Soulless|Dreamin, madness_ → @napness_
2:47 PM <@DSJ> At least you're here again, Maple
2:48 PM <SpookyBee> Maple SITS UP in her Jello Prison.
2:50 PM <Knyght> Irene wakes up in the jello!
2:50 PM <SpookyBee> "… Tough break."
2:51 PM <SpookyBee> "Hey, uh… Is it just me, or… Is this startin' to get… Fun?"
2:51 PM <%aidenEldritch> Cole respawns in the Jello Prison!
2:52 PM <Knyght> "I don't know… No consequences…" She comments.
2:52 PM <Knyght> "Changing each time is odd but…"
2:52 PM <@DSJ> You could also call it Jhello
2:52 PM <%aidenEldritch> Fuck you
2:52 PM <SpookyBee> "Exactly… It's like… Some kind'a game. Like playin' soldier. There's all this obstacles, but ain't no real /risk/…"
2:53 PM <Knyght> "Other than… We seem to be dying brutally every time." She rubs her arms gently.
2:54 PM <%aidenEldritch> Cole gives Maple another hug! "Aside from all the weird bodyshit and the whole 'brutal dyin'' thing, I'd say it's been… almost fun, yeah."
2:55 PM <SpookyBee> Maple hugs her tight! "Let's hope we make it out'a here… I wanna eat somethin' again."
2:55 PM <Knyght> Irene lets them have their moment. "Y'all lovebirds have fun." She rolls her eyes, swooshing around in the jello idly.
2:56 PM <SpookyBee> "… What? I'm just sayin' I'm hungry."
2:56 PM <taylor_itkin> (ew Irene)
2:56 PM <%aidenEldritch> (eat what, or who)
2:56 PM <Knyght> ',:3))
2:57 PM <%aidenEldritch> "Man, now that you point it out I've really been missin' solid food…"
2:59 PM <SpookyBee> "… Just solid?"
3:00 PM <%aidenEldritch> "I don' particularly miss soup, no."
3:00 PM <taylor_itkin> (SOUP IS AMAZING)
3:00 PM <%aidenEldritch> (We're at soup.)
3:00 PM <SpookyBee> "Oi, I like soup."
3:01 PM <Knyght> "I miss being home… Not in an endless meat grinder…"
3:01 PM <taylor_itkin> (What do you mean you're at soup?)

3:27 PM <@DSJ> The jellopit persists
3:27 PM <@DSJ> But it's much thinner
3:27 PM <@DSJ> Almost empty
3:28 PM <%aidenEldritch> Cole does a backflip, bored.
3:28 PM <Knyght> Irene wakes up in Jello!
3:28 PM <Knyght> She turns to glance at Cole, shrugging. "Least we got a good few shots in."
3:29 PM <%aidenEldritch> "Yeah, I s'pose."
3:32 PM <SpookyBee> Maple floats in the Jello Valley.
3:32 PM <SpookyBee> "… I've been keepin' score."
3:32 PM <SpookyBee> "Is that a bad thin'? That this is jus' a game ta me now?"
3:32 PM <%aidenEldritch> "I dunno."
3:33 PM <ArseneLupin> Graham is here "I got hit. I think it's almost dead though."
3:33 PM <%aidenEldritch> "It's… weird bein' in this situation. Really fuckin' weird."
3:33 PM <Knyght> "What does it matter anymore? Let's go kill this damn thing, hopefully its the last thing we need to do."
3:33 PM <SpookyBee> "I mean, I hate watchin' ya die, but… What's the point?" She tilts her head- "I mean, if we jus' keep comin' back, then what the hell even is death?"
3:33 PM <taylor_itkin> Tony exists.
3:33 PM <taylor_itkin> "Hey guys."
3:34 PM <Knyght> "Hey Tony." She waves.
3:34 PM <SpookyBee> "Who's left?"
3:34 PM <taylor_itkin> "No one :D"
3:34 PM <SpookyBee> "Ah… Nobody."
3:34 PM <ArseneLupin> "We should be back in a moment now that we're all here."
3:34 PM <taylor_itkin> :D
