[15:33] <%TeslaTornado> Harris lopes into the briefing room, after getting lost and following signs for a bit.
[15:33] <gumbal1> Seymour arrives in the briefing room.
[15:33] <TesKin|Phone> Branko wanders into the briefing room, puffing away on his pipe
[15:34] <ZombieRaptor> Jay ambles in.

[15:35] <GraemeCracker> As does Murray
[15:35] <gumbal1> Seymour looks to the others, noticing a disturbing trend in them that he lacks. Namely, youth.
01[15:35] <Daedalus|GMs> Hermann, an important-looking man in a dark suit, and Takeo (Whom some of you may recognize as the Site-22 assistant director) sit at the table. On said table is a cylindrical glass container holding a luminous blue fluid, in which sits a brain and a single eyeball.
[15:36] <ZombieRaptor> Jay stares at the brain.. Wondering why they have it on display.
[15:36] <TesKin|Phone> Branko looks at the container. "Lis?"
01[15:36] <Daedalus|GMs> There's also some file folders there.
[15:36] <%TeslaTornado> Harris sliiiiides up to the glass container and taps it. "This's some weird shit, man."
[15:36] <gumbal1> "Quite an odd thing you have here."
[15:36] <GraemeCracker> Murray blinks looking over to Branko. "…That's Lis?"
[15:36] <%TeslaTornado> "What is this, like, blue Jello?"
[15:37] <gumbal1> "Although I'm not certain something such as this should be out of the labs."
[15:37] <ZombieRaptor> "Who's Lis?"
[15:37] <gumbal1> His voice is rather gruff, with a hint of Boston in it.
[15:38] <%TeslaTornado> Harris continues tapping the glass.
[15:38] <TesKin|Phone> Branko nods. "I had heard what happened to her… I did not want to believe it."
01[15:38] <Daedalus|GMs> Hermann nods to them, then puts a hand on Harris' arm, "I would not tap the glass. That is a person in there; an agent of ours. She can hear you, but in this container she will be incapable of speaking for a bit."
03[15:38] * Hilfigertout (~ten.tsacmoc.tu.1dsh.75EE3BF-CRInys|tibbiM#ten.tsacmoc.tu.1dsh.75EE3BF-CRInys|tibbiM) has joined #homeimprovement

[15:39] <gumbal1> "Oh." Seymour takes a deep breath. "Does this happen often to agents?"
01[15:39] <Daedalus|GMs> "Her name is Frau Lisbet Tande, and due to an unfortunate event, she was reduced to the gelatinous state you see before you."
[15:39] <%TeslaTornado> Harris looks at Hermann with a hint of incredulity. "… Oh, that can happen? Do we all get turned into blue Jello in a jar?"
[15:39] <ZombieRaptor> "How the heck cen a brain hear us?"
[15:39] <TesKin|Phone> "Her name is Lis. Not brain."
[15:40] <%TeslaTornado> Harris looks like he wants to keep tapping the glass, but instead holds his own wrist, rocking back and forth on his heels with anticipation.
01[15:40] <Daedalus|GMs> "Please save your questions until after the briefing." He intones annoyedly, "Mr. Jones here will take over." He gestures to the man in the dark suit.
[15:42] <TesKin|Phone> Branko crosses his arms, waiting
[15:42] <%TeslaTornado> Harris looks over to Mister Jones, still rocking on his heels. "Whatcha got, mister?"
[15:44] <gumbal1> Seymour remains quiet.
01[15:44] <Daedalus|GMs> The man stands up and picks up a control for a slide projector, "Thank you doctor." He has a bit of a Western accent, and he presses the first slide, "Ya see, I've been informed that Miss. Tande's condition was caused by some sorta Nazi mumbo-jumbo back during the war. As such, she had the ability to shoot lighting outta her fingers." The slide is of the Vemork plant.
[15:45] <%TeslaTornado> Harris takes a few cautious steps back from the tank, suddenly less willing to tap the glass.
03[15:45] * Optimal (moc.rr.ser.retsehcor.7BB78509-CRInys|nhoJ#moc.rr.ser.retsehcor.7BB78509-CRInys|nhoJ) has joined #homeimprovement
[15:46] <TesKin|Phone> Branko jots down notes.
[15:46] <Optimal> Douglass is wherever he needs to be.
[15:47] <@Nemi> The Vermork hydroelectric plant, built by Norsk Hydro in the early 1900s, is a fairly imposing edifice. It was the center of much of Nazi Germany's efforts in acquiring heavy water for nuclear research. And, apparently, more than just that.
01[15:47] <Daedalus|GMs> "I've also been told that it replaced all fluids in her body, so she was basically dead, but functionally alive. Which is why she can be a brain in a jar."
[15:48] <%TeslaTornado> Harris continues giving the jar a sidewise eye while rocking back-and-forth on his heels.
01[15:49] <Daedalus|GMs> He clicks the next slide, which is a picture of Adrian, "See this fucker? Well, during one of the mission where he fucked us over, Miss Tande let loose a fuckload of energy that destroyed her body. After which there was much hubabaloo to fix her body."
[15:49] <gumbal1> Seymour pays attention to the slide.
02[15:50] * ZombieRaptor (~moc.rr.ser.xtas.D1408098-CRInys|paReibmoZ#moc.rr.ser.xtas.D1408098-CRInys|paReibmoZ) Quit (Quit: ZombieRaptor)
[15:50] <%TeslaTornado> "Guy looks like a dick," Harris says.
[15:50] <TesKin|Phone> "Coxwell." Branko glares at the slide.
[15:50] <%TeslaTornado> Harris' face lights up. "Guy's name was Cockswell? Aw, y'all're fuckin' kiddin' me."
[15:50] <@Nemi> There's some faint luminescence coming from the blue ooze in the jar, now and then. The brain itself is… well, to call it a whole brain is somewhat generous. However, there's quite a lot of activity within the ooze itself. What looks like lightning dances about inside, diffused slightly by the opacity of the sludge. The eye swivels about to watch those present. It's unsettling.
[15:51] <Optimal> Douglass drifts off as the briefing goes on.
[15:51] <TesKin|Phone> Branko raises his hand. "Where are we going?"
[15:52] <gumbal1> ~This isn't a science-centered organization, is it?~
[15:52] <GraemeCracker> Murray tries to keep his eyes of Jar!Lis and focus on the power point presentation going on.
[15:52] <@Nemi> The eye itself glows faintly, sparking with greater brightness when it swivels toward another person. You can almost feel her .. bemusement.
01[15:52] <Daedalus|GMs> "He's major dick, but that ain't the point." He clicks the slide again, "Doc here says there's a way to fix Miss Lis through the use of some more Nazi mumbo jumbo, located here." The slide is a map of germany, with an 'X' over a point in the Western half.
[15:53] <%TeslaTornado> Harris makes awkward eye contact with SingleFloatingEye!Lis. He gives a half-wave of his hand.
[15:53] <gumbal1> "Are we sure we should be engaging ourselves with Nazi science?"
[15:53] <TesKin|Phone> Branko nods. "Never thought I would be back in Europe."
[15:54] <%TeslaTornado> "Wait, we goin' to Europe?"
[15:54] <@Nemi> There's a crackle of luminescence from the jar, as if in response to Harris. Gosh, that's unsettling.
01[15:55] <Daedalus|GMs> "He's calculated it so you arrive when it arrives." He clicks the slide again, and this picture is a of a large bell-shaped object with a nazi symbol etched on it, "Dee Glock."
[15:55] <gumbal1> ~Do they have to engrave that blasted insignia on everything?~
[15:55] <TesKin|Phone> Branko looks at Jar!Lis, grinning. "Hopefully you wont get caught under metal this time, da?"

[15:58] <TesKin|Phone> "It never is Murray."
[15:58] <GraemeCracker> "I know, but it sounds like it is."
01[15:59] <Daedalus|GMs> Hermann interjects, "It's an artificial non-euclidian particle manipulator intended to create biological non-euclidian persons."
[15:59] <%TeslaTornado> "… Wut."
[15:59] <%TeslaTornado> "Ah understood 'magic bell a lot better."
01[16:00] <Daedalus|GMs> "It's been abandoned for years, but I'm sure it is still functional. it was made to be."
[16:00] <gumbal1> Seymour looks through his file.
[16:00] <Optimal> *quiet snore*
01[16:00] <Daedalus|GMs> The amn in the dark suit nods, "Any questions?"
01[16:01] <Daedalus|GMs> man*
[16:01] <gumbal1> "Should we expect resistance?"
[16:01] <%TeslaTornado> Harris raises his hand, then hears Seymour's question and puts it back down.
01[16:02] <Daedalus|GMs> "Uh…" he looks to Hermann, who shakes his head, "Nein."
[16:02] <%TeslaTornado> "An' what about weird-ass spooky stuff like that hospital over there?" Harris gestures in the direction of Brookhaven.
[16:02] <gumbal1> ~Thank god.~
01[16:03] <Daedalus|GMs> In the folders are some facts about Die Glocke, as well as some background information as to it's creation.
01[16:04] <Daedalus|GMs> The man looks at the map, "Huh… I dunno."
[16:04] <gumbal1> "Hospital?"
[16:05] <%TeslaTornado> Harris takes one of the folders and reads it. "There's some weird spook-house o'er yonder that's killed a lotta people 'r somethin'."
01[16:06] <Daedalus|GMs> "Really? That's weird."
01[16:06] <Daedalus|GMs> The man frowns
[16:06] <%TeslaTornado> "Ayup." Harris continues reading his folder.
[16:06] <GraemeCracker> Murray picks up one of the files, thumbing through it. "That's uh…Kind of a nasty place. What about it?"
[16:06] <gumbal1> "Did it kill any agents?"
01[16:06] <Daedalus|GMs> "Anyway, ya'll better get a move on. Your flight leaves in… 20 minutes?"
[16:07] <%TeslaTornado> "Ayup." Harris folds up the folder and nods. He suddenly looks more animate than he did before. A Transatlantic Flight! He's never been on one of those before!
[16:07] <%TeslaTornado> Or anything bigger than a single-seat monoplane!
[16:08] <GraemeCracker> "A…A few." Murray looks up and starts wandering towards wherever the jeep is that's going to haul them to the plane.
01[16:09] <Daedalus|GMs> "A truck's waiting for you in the motor pool." He replies,
[16:09] <%TeslaTornado> Harris looks at Lis!Jar and asks the obvious question. "Who's carryin' her?"
[16:09] <TesKin|Phone> Branko walks over and picks Jar!Lis up.
[16:09] <gumbal1> "Thank you." He heads out, to the motor pool and to destiny (which he hopes favors him).
[16:10] <%TeslaTornado> Harris follows Seymour out, getting excited. "I ain't never been to Europe before."
01[16:10] <Daedalus|GMs> A trcuk waits there for them.
01[16:10] <Daedalus|GMs> truck*
[16:10] <%TeslaTornado> Harris hops into the truck!
[16:11] <Optimal> Douglass wakes up and gets into the truck.
[16:11] <GraemeCracker> Murray clambers into the trcuk, checking over his gear for anything odd. "Hear it's nice this time of year."
[16:11] <TesKin|Phone> Branko walks out behind them, being carful not to tip her.
[16:12] <TesKin|Phone> He hops into the truck.
01[16:12] <Daedalus|GMs> Assuming they all get in, the truck takes them to the airfield!
[16:12] <gumbal1> "I didn't realize there was much danger to be had here."
[16:12] <Optimal> Doug stretches, checks for his handgun, and settles into his seat.
01[16:13] <Daedalus|GMs> After they pull into the airfield, they're loaded onto a large airplane filled with food and other supplies.
[16:13] <%TeslaTornado> "First day I was here I got attacked by a clown an' strapped into a chair an' had stuff put in mah brain."
[16:14] <GraemeCracker> "Well, we hold a lotta dangerous things. Makes it safer everywhere else, but it can turn this place just a little bit of a hazard zone."
[16:14] <TesKin|Phone> Branko nods. "Da."
[16:14] <%TeslaTornado> Harris inspects the airplane excitedly, looking at all of the stuff.
[16:14] <TesKin|Phone> "That was my third time in that place."
[16:14] <Optimal> "That's a fuckin understatement. Kinda fun though."
[16:15] <GraemeCracker> Murray eyes the plane, peering at it curiously. Is it the nice one?
01[16:15] <Daedalus|GMs> It's a beat up old military cargo plane.
[16:15] <GraemeCracker> ~Oh man…We gotta go cross-continent in this.~
[16:16] <%TeslaTornado> ~Oh man, I could get cross-continent in this!~
[16:16] <TesKin|Phone> ~Fuck planes~
[16:16] <gumbal1> ~Oh lord, we're going back to Europe.~
[16:16] <Optimal> ~I could go for a steak right now/~
[16:18] <gumbal1> "I wasn't aware we were a conflict-centered organization, to be honest."
01[16:18] <Daedalus|GMs> Assuming they board, they sit through a rickety 8 hour flight. A few times the plane shakes through a severe storm, and at the last few miles they lose one of the engines, but they make it to the makeshift German airfield safe and sound.
[16:18] <%TeslaTornado> Harris makes a few polite suggestions to the pilot during the flight.
01[16:19] <Daedalus|GMs> The pilot is old, and probably can't hear him that well.

[16:26] <Optimal> He wakes up at around this time.
[16:26] <TesKin> Branko steps out of the truck, grabbing Jar!Lis.
[16:26] <TesKin> That is, if it stopped.
[16:26] <%TeslaTornado> "Excitin' shit." Harris looks at the gate. "Is that thing locked, or are they expectin' us?"
[16:27] <GraemeCracker> Murray shrugs, trying the gate.
[16:28] <%TeslaTornado> Harris taps his foot. On dirt! In Europe!
[16:28] <Optimal> Doug's outta the truck, standing near the gate.
[16:28] <gumbal1> Seymour waits for someone to do something to the gate. God knows he's too old for this shit.
01[16:28] <Daedalus|GMs> Hermann arrives in a second truck filled with US soldiers, who file out and stand behind the rest of them. "They aren't expecting us, so tread carefully." He says, getting out.
01[16:28] <Daedalus|GMs> "I don't know if anyone is living here now."
[16:29] <%TeslaTornado> "Wait, they ain't expectin' us?" Harris scowls as he attempts to hop the fence.
[16:29] <TesKin> Branko purses his lips. "And I cannot fight if it comes to it."
[16:29] <%TeslaTornado> "How the fuck're we supposed to get this thang if they ain't expectin' us?"
[16:29] <Optimal> "That's then you knock the gate down."
[16:30] <%TeslaTornado> "But that's rude, mister."
01[16:30] <Daedalus|GMs> "She said she would be here." Hermann says, using a key to unlock the gate, "But I do not know if she would want to see me after all these years, so you had better go first." He pushes the rusted and vine covered gate over.
03[16:31] * Retrieving #homeimprovement modes…
[16:31] <TesKin> Branko walks through the gate, nodding to Hermann.
[16:31] <%TeslaTornado> Harris falls off the other side of the gate.
[16:32] <gumbal1> Seymour follows. "You had a key?"
01[16:32] <Daedalus|GMs> "I told them that she would be cooperative. But I am not so sure. Just be polite, and we'll see what happens." Hermann nods, "Yes."
[16:32] <%TeslaTornado> Harris rolls off the ground, dusting himself off, and walks up the path like he totally didn't fall like a chump.
[16:33] <TesKin> Branko walks up the path behind Harris.
01[16:33] <Daedalus|GMs> The path is a brick road leading to a huge abandoned-looking manor. Whomever owned this place must've been rich.
01[16:34] <Daedalus|GMs> Hermann and the soldirs follow behind the task force.
[16:34] <GraemeCracker> Murray sneaks along with the rest of them, looking about. "So, Hermann, who're we looking for if we're not supposed to be expected?"

[16:36] <%TeslaTornado> "So do we just knock on th' front door, 'r what?"
01[16:36] <Daedalus|GMs> "Yes. Something like that." Looking up, you might notice hundreds of ravens hiding in the treetops and in the broken and open widows of the mansion. The roof is covered with them.

01[16:42] <Daedalus|GMs> The door opens again, and the eye peeks out.
[16:43] <GraemeCracker> Murray's attention is brought back by the sounds of yelling and the constant ringing of doorbells.
01[16:44] <Daedalus|GMs> "Are you Foundation?"
[16:44] <GraemeCracker> "What happens if we say we are?"

01[16:44] <Daedalus|GMs> "You do not want to know what happens if you aren't."
[16:45] <GraemeCracker> "…Alright, then we're Foundation."
[16:45] <%TeslaTornado> Harris blinks. "Well I guess we are." He fumbles for his ID badge.
[16:45] <TesKin> Branko pokes Harris with his boot. "Left brest pocket for mine."

[16:46] <gumbal1> Seymour pulls out his as well.
[16:46] <%TeslaTornado> "Yeah but I ain't you, man, I ain't got breast pockets." Harris fumbles his ID badge out and flashes it at the door.
[16:47] <%TeslaTornado> The picture is unflattering.
[16:47] <TesKin> Branko sighs. "To show her for me."
01[16:47] <Daedalus|GMs> The eye considers for a moment, before opening the door fully. A dark haired woman stands before you, frowning. "You are here for the bell, Ja?"
[16:47] <TesKin> Branko nods. "Da. To help our friend."
[16:47] <%TeslaTornado> "Yes ma'am." Harris replaces his ID badge.
01[16:48] <Daedalus|GMs> "Is Bowe dead?"
[16:48] <%TeslaTornado> "Who?"
01[16:49] <Daedalus|GMs> "The General. Is he dead?"
[16:49] <gumbal1> "What general?"
[16:49] <%TeslaTornado> "Uh?"
[16:49] <gumbal1> "I had assumed we were a nonmilitary organization."
[16:49] <%TeslaTornado> "I ain't heard nothin' 'bout no gen'rals since I got in, so I'm gon' assume yes."
01[16:50] <Daedalus|GMs> "That's what my father thought. Then the General took over." She sighs, "Come in." She gestures and steps inside.
[16:50] <TesKin> Branko steps through the door.
[16:50] <%TeslaTornado> "Yer pa?" Harris cautiously steps inside, kicking the dirt off his boots on the doorframe and removing his busted leather hat.
[16:51] <gumbal1> Seymour steps in.
[16:51] <gumbal1> "A shame. I had thought this to be a research organization."
01[16:51] <Daedalus|GMs> "Ja." She steps over into the living room, "What is wrong with your friend?"
[16:51] <TesKin> "She blew up."
[16:51] <TesKin> "And now is in this jar."
[16:51] <%TeslaTornado> "… Uh, she 'sploded, from what I gathered." Harris looks around as he follows Annabell into the living room.

[16:52] <@Nemi> The eye turns this way and that, wreathed in a nimbus of light within the blue ooze.
01[16:53] <Daedalus|GMs> Harris, you see ravens everywhere inside. One poops on your head, preventing you from concentrationg on seeing anything else.
[16:53] <GraemeCracker> Murray looks around the house. "Bowe's gone…if it means anything to your, er, father."
[16:53] <TesKin> Branko turns the Jar, so Lis can get a better look around.
01[16:54] <Daedalus|GMs> "He's dead." Anna intones, shooing some birds from the coffee table, "But it is the thought that counts."
[16:54] <%TeslaTornado> Harris twitches and blinks as it poops on his head. A few quiet moments pass before he takes a grease-stained rag from his pocket and wipes the poop out of his hair. "Pa always said that birdshit on yer head's a sign of good luck."
01[16:55] <Daedalus|GMs> "Fathers say many things, Ja." She shakes her head, "Either way…" She pulls on a false book from a bookshelf, "The Bell is down there. You should hurry, before it moves again."
[16:55] <gumbal1> "Bird shit in your hair usually indicates that you need to wash your hair."
[16:56] <%TeslaTornado> "Moves?" Harris takes off down the—
[16:56] <gumbal1> "Moves?"
01[16:56] <Daedalus|GMs> The entire bookshelf moves to the side, revealing an elevator.
[16:56] <gumbal1> Seymour nods, and heads into the elevator.
[16:56] <%TeslaTornado> "Wait whoa, whoa, whooooa, y'all got a hidin' bookshe-" He admires the elevator, and suddenly beams. "Aww, hell, this's like dag-gone Christmas."
[16:56] <TesKin> Branko walks over to the elevator. "The last time I was in a seceret elevator, I strapped myself into a suit that made me shoot lighting."
[16:56] <TesKin> He grins. "I melted an airplane."
[16:57] <gumbal1> "Christmas in our organization is seldom fun, in my experience."
01[16:57] <Daedalus|GMs> "Did Rothschild not tell you?" She raises an eyebrow, "The Bell moves every 5 hours."
01[16:57] <Daedalus|GMs> Hermann steps into the elevator.
[16:57] <%TeslaTornado> Harris scuttles into the elevator. "Wait, who's Rothschild? An' naw, nobody said that."
[16:57] <GraemeCracker> Murray walks in, frowning. "Where's it go off to?"
01[16:58] <Daedalus|GMs> "The old dumkoff with you. Or did you change your name again?" She frowns, "The elevator will take you down to the command level."
01[16:59] <Daedalus|GMs> "Just… don't break anything."
[17:00] <GraemeCracker> "We'll do our best."
[17:00] <TesKin> Branko looks for buttons. "Do we push a button to go down?"
[17:01] <gumbal1> Seymour waits in the elevator like a good mensch.
01[17:01] <Daedalus|GMs> Hermann pulls a cord hanging from the ceiling.
01[17:01] <Daedalus|GMs> The bookshelf shifts back into place, and they begin to descend.
[17:01] <%TeslaTornado> Harris waits in the elevator as well. He looks up at the ceiling-cord. "Dammit, ever'thing in this house runs on drawstrings, y'all think yankin' the wrong one'd collapse th' whole dang house."
[17:02] <GraemeCracker> Murray leans back in the elevator, scratching his head. "Never seen those many pet ravens before. Bet Monday would've felt like a kid in a candy shop here."
[17:02] <gumbal1> "Monday?"
[17:03] <Optimal> Doug stretches once more in the elevator.
[17:03] <%TeslaTornado> Harris tilts his head.
[17:04] <GraemeCracker> He nods. "Old doctor that worked with us for a while, had a little pet raven that followed him around…Turned out to be his kid. Nice guy, could be a little odd with his work though."
[17:05] <TesKin> "What happened to him?"
[17:05] <GraemeCracker> He peers over to Hermann. "You'd have probably liked him, come to think of it."
[17:05] <gumbal1> "I am confused. Humans cannot sire raven children."
[17:05] <GraemeCracker> "Uh…I dunno. Went back home and died of old age, last I heard."
[17:05] <gumbal1> "Or any child that isn't human."
[17:06] <%TeslaTornado> Harris just kinda rolls with it.
01[17:06] <Daedalus|GMs> "I did know the Professor; very well in fact." He pauses, "That /was/ his daughter, Herr Eichmann." Hermann comments, as the elevator stops. "You all wait here. This is the command level. I'll be communicating to you through the intercoms." He steps out, "Pull the cord again to descend."
[17:06] <TesKin> Branko pulls said cord. "Good luck Hermann."
[17:06] <GraemeCracker> "Well no I mean he put his kid into a rav-wait what?"
[17:06] <%TeslaTornado> Harris just kinda smiles vacantly. "Alllllrighty."
01[17:07] <Daedalus|GMs> The elevator descends again, this time going deeper into the ground.
[17:07] <GraemeCracker> "…How."
[17:07] <TesKin> Branko looks around. "I do not like being this deep underground." He shakes his head.
[17:08] <gumbal1> "I should have expected the supernatural had a part to play."
01[17:08] <Daedalus|GMs> After about 15 minutes of descending, it stops and opens again, revealing a large, dimly lit, cubical room with grey walls and wires running alongside it. A blast door sits at the other end.

01[17:12] <Daedalus|GMs> This seems to be some sort of decontamination chamber, Branko. Seymour, Murray, and Harris, You can see a switch on one of the walls

01[17:13] <Daedalus|GMs> «Testing, Testing.» The intercom crackles. It's Hermann's voice, «Can you hear me? I am not sure whether the intercom system still works, but I am fairly sure you can hear me.»
[17:13] <%TeslaTornado> "Uhh, yup." Harris walks over to the switch on the far wall. "What's this thang do?"
[17:14] <TesKin> "Most likely starts the decon process."
01[17:14] <Daedalus|GMs> «Of course, there is no way to communicate back to me, but I will assume you can. You are sitting in the decontamination and disarment chamber.»
01[17:15] <Daedalus|GMs> «It ensures you go into the area sterile and unarmed. If you have any weapons on you, I suggest you remove them now.»
[17:15] <@Nemi> Lis' eye flits about.
[17:15] <TesKin> Branko sets Jar!Lis down, unbuckling his gunbelt and swordbelt.
[17:16] <gumbal1> Seymour won't take a chance with whether a pocket knife is a weapon or not.
01[17:16] <Daedalus|GMs> «I do also hope that none of you have any metallic implants.»
01[17:17] <Daedalus|GMs> «Pull the lever when you are ready.»
[17:17] <GraemeCracker> Murray looks down, hesitantly abandoning the guns he has on hand.
[17:17] <%TeslaTornado> Harris removes Collier's pistol and puts it on the floor. "What was that about metallic implants? 'Cuz I got a pin in my leg…"
[17:18] <GraemeCracker> "…Don't suppose you can take it out, huh?"
01[17:19] <Daedalus|GMs> «It will activate the Wundermagnets, which will pull any weapons and metallic objects toward the ceiling.»
[17:19] <TesKin> Branko's eyes widen. "Yebat."
[17:20] <TesKin> He takes his dogtags off as well. "My boots have steel toes in them."
[17:20] <GraemeCracker> "Hmm. That could be a problem.
[17:20] <GraemeCracker> "
01[17:20] <Daedalus|GMs> «It will also spray a nut-based disinfectant, so I do hope you are not allergic.»
[17:20] <%TeslaTornado> "Uh." Harris raises his hand and looks toward the ceiling. "Boss, ah got a pin in mah leg!"
[17:20] <GraemeCracker> Murray takes his badge and leaves it with his guns as well.
01[17:21] <Daedalus|GMs> «I would also like to remind you that I cannot respond to any questions you may have, as this is a one-way intercom system.»
[17:21] <gumbal1> Seymour puts away his medical equipment as well.
[17:21] <TesKin> Branko unties his boots, taking his socks off as well.
[17:21] <%TeslaTornado> Harris turns out his pockets, dropping his pocket knife and some loose change.
[17:21] <%TeslaTornado> ~Hopefully it ain't a big magnet.~
[17:22] <%TeslaTornado> Of note, he forgets his lucky charm: an inch-long metal bolt hanging by a leather thong around his neck.
[17:22] <GraemeCracker> "You'll…Probably be fine. And if not, we'll just get ya down from the ceiling."
01[17:22] <Daedalus|GMs> «In the event you do have some sort of metallic implant, I suggest you remove it. If you cannot remove it, I suggest you have it as close to the wall as possible.»
[17:23] <%TeslaTornado> Harris scoooooots over to the wall.
[17:23] <GraemeCracker> Murray pats himself once over, making sure he's out of metal bits.
[17:24] <%TeslaTornado> Harris pats himself as well, again forgetting the bolt-necklace under his shirt.
[17:24] <TesKin> Branko picks Jar!Lis up, walking over to the switch. "Ready?"
[17:24] <%TeslaTornado> "Ayup."
[17:24] <gumbal1> Seymour tries to remember if he's been shot before.
[17:24] <GraemeCracker> "Ready as we can be."

01[17:27] <Daedalus|GMs> The magent is powerful, and pulls everyone's weapons and metal objects to the ceiling with a sharp >Clank<. Harris is far enough away that his leg isn't pulled, but his necklace is. Assuming the string is strong enough to carry a fully grown man, he's functionally garroted by the pull.
[17:27] <%TeslaTornado> "Oh man that's a loud-soundin' magGAAAAAAAHK."
[17:28] <TesKin> Branko looks at Harris. "Yebat! Are you okay?"
[17:28] <%TeslaTornado> Harris is, in fact, garrotted by the pull. He struggles out of the leather necklace string and plunges to the floor.
[17:28] <gumbal1> Turns out he hasn't been, and thank god for that.
[17:28] <gumbal1> "Oh dear."
[17:28] <gumbal1> Seymour immediatly attends to Harris.

[17:30] <GraemeCracker> "Jesus, what happened?"
[17:31] <%TeslaTornado> "Had a lucky bolt." Harris coughs.
01[17:31] <Daedalus|GMs> Harris, you manage to successfully resist being choked to death. Seymour, you manage to cut the leather string and release him.
[17:32] <gumbal1> "Mary and Joseph, you could have died."
01[17:32] <Daedalus|GMs> A fine mist is sprayed into the room that smells faintly of walnut.
[17:32] <%TeslaTornado> "Ain't the first time." Harris coughs, and then attempts to retrieve the bolt. Thankfully, he doesn't have a walnut allergy.
[17:33] <GraemeCracker> "Sure didn't act lucky…"
[17:34] <TesKin> Branko walks to the blast door.
[17:34] <%TeslaTornado> "Normally it's luckier," Harris says plainly, walking to the blast door, smelling like nuts.
01[17:34] <Daedalus|GMs> The bolt is firmly attached to the ceiling. The entire cieling is lifted by something and replaced. The blast door makes a hissing sound and opens.
[17:35] <%TeslaTornado> "… Welp." Harris waves goodbye to his lucky bolt and waltzes through the door.
[17:35] <TesKin> Branko frowns. "I want those back."
[17:36] <GraemeCracker> Murray follows, looking back at the ceiling. "Maybe you can ask 'em where that went."
[17:36] <gumbal1> Seymour takes what remains of his medical supplies and follows Harris.
[17:36] <gumbal1> "I doubt they'd just take them from us, to be honest."
01[17:36] <Daedalus|GMs> «Ah, I see the decontamination routine has ended. Wunderbar. You can retrieve your weapons at the security office, somewhere near cooling.»
01[17:37] <Daedalus|GMs> «Now, this is the important part.»
[17:38] <%TeslaTornado> Harris stands by waiting on the important part.
01[17:40] <Daedalus|GMs> You're now all in a large hallway with a high ceiling. At one end is a blast door, even bigger than the one before. At the sides are various stairways lead off to other rooms, «You need to activate the power. There are two main generators, one to your left, though the Experimental Weapons wing, and another to your right, through the Experiment Storge wing."
[17:41] <TesKin> "Move out as a unit, or devide and conqure?"
[17:41] <%TeslaTornado> "Welp, Experiment Storage sounds pretty dang ominous, so I'd say we go for Weapons first."
[17:42] <%TeslaTornado> "Splittin' up in a place this big, what was run by Nahtzis, don't seem like a bright idea."
[17:42] <TesKin> Branko nods. "Okay. Weapons first then. Maybe we can get some gear as well."
01[17:42] <Daedalus|GMs> «It is imperative you turn them on at the same time.»
[17:42] <GraemeCracker> "Sounds dandy. With luck, everything's been deactivated in there."
[17:43] <%TeslaTornado> "… Well shit."
[17:43] <TesKin> "Who is going where then?"
[17:43] <%TeslaTornado> Harris tuts, and crosses his arms. "Mebbe we could cause a power surge in one of the gennies an' use it to kickstart th' other one?"
[17:44] <TesKin> Branko cocks his head. "Maybe. The system may be too old though."
[17:45] <GraemeCracker> Murray shrugs. "Guess we're doing it the old fashioned way. I'll uh, go check out the weapons hall. Who's coming with?"
[17:45] <TesKin> "I will."
[17:46] <TesKin> "Unless you want the doc with you."
01[17:47] <Daedalus|GMs> Experimental Storage is #tooltime
[17:47] <GraemeCracker> "Nah, that's fine. Sooner we get this done, the sooner we can get Lis out of the goo right?"
[17:47] <gumbal1> "I'll go with weapons."
[17:48] <TesKin> Branko nods. "Okay. If there are weapons, grab some for all of us."
[17:48] <%TeslaTornado> "Ah'll get storage done, then."
[17:48] <TesKin> Branko walks over to Harris. "Let's get this done, da?"
[17:48] <GraemeCracker> "Alright, if anything's working that is…"
[17:49] <%TeslaTornado> "Ayuh." Harris nods at the others, putting his hat on his head. "Let's get this shit done, then. Holler if y'all need any help with the gennies, I can prob'ly figger 'em out.
[17:49] <%TeslaTornado> "*
[17:49] <TesKin> Branko nods. "I can as well."
[17:49] <GraemeCracker> "Will do!" Murray starts wandering down ze weapons wing.
[17:49] <gumbal1> Doc Whitman follows.
[17:50] <gumbal1> (Disclaimer: Not actually a doctor)
[17:52] <gumbal1> "Can they hear us from here?"
[17:52] <GraemeCracker> "Doubt it, they're a ways away…"
01[17:52] <Daedalus|GMs> The entrance is a pair of broken glass doors.
01[17:53] <Daedalus|GMs> The sign reads "Experimentelle Waffen"
[17:54] <GraemeCracker> Murray looks up at the sign, blinking. "Hopefully there's something here that'll help us communicate."
[17:54] <GraemeCracker> "If not, we'll…I dunno, yell?"
[17:55] <gumbal1> "We could time how long it takes me to get to and from one generator to another, divide it by two, and flip it when the resulting time comes, assuming they do the same."
[17:55] <gumbal1> "Although I assume you're in better shape than I."
[17:58] <GraemeCracker> "Alright, that sounds better than anything I can come up with. But first let's find this thing."
[17:58] <GraemeCracker> Murray eases his way through the broken doors, taking care to not cut himself up on it.
[17:59] <gumbal1> Seymour follows.
[18:03] <GraemeCracker> Murray heads down the hall, peering around at the various things and whatsits that are around.
01[18:03] <Daedalus|GMs> You find yourself in a large laboratory. A range is set up on the far end and several workbenches contain gutted weaponry. There are a few racks with weapons that look strange and glow slightly.
[18:03] <gumbal1> "Let's not touch those."

[18:16] <gumbal1> "There's a chance it may be something bad. Just in case, I recommend you take a point in the room where we can see two different areas."
[18:17] <GraemeCracker> He crouches closer, squinting at the twitchy-thing. "Right…"

01[18:18] <Daedalus|GMs> The door in this room is labeled "Haupt Generator"
[18:18] <GraemeCracker> "Though, we're in a room full of guns. Maybe one of them works."
[18:18] <gumbal1> Seymour slowly advances towards the door.
[18:18] <gumbal1> "That's the problem. The thing might know how to use one."
[18:18] <GraemeCracker> "What, you think nazis are still hanging out around here?"
[18:19] <gumbal1> Seymour remains silent.
[18:19] <GraemeCracker> Murray stops, rethinking that question. "…Mm. There's been odder stuff though."
[18:20] <GraemeCracker> He picks up a nearby hunk of debris, walking a little bit closer to figure out what the thinger is.
[18:21] <gumbal1> Seymour takes a quick look back, too quick too notice anything too shaded, and tries to open the door.
01[18:22] <Daedalus|GMs> It looks like half of a black manniquin wearing a Nazi uniform, torn apart from the waist down. The open bit is releasing some sparks. This must be some sort of automaton.
[18:22] <GraemeCracker> "…Huh. Rats don't spar-oh."
[18:24] <GraemeCracker> Murray stands up with a sigh of relief. "Looks like it's just some robot."
[18:24] <gumbal1> "Odd. I would have thought they'd take care of something like that." Seymour sighs, and tries the door.
01[18:26] <Daedalus|GMs> The door is locked, unfortunately.
[17:49] <TesKin> Branko heads off towards storage.

03[17:49] * ChanServ sets mode: +h TeslaTornado
[17:50] <%TeslaTornado> Harris ambles towards Experiment Storage.
03[17:50] * Soulless is now known as Soulless|Dreamin
01[17:51] <Daedalus|GMs> The entrance is a large Pnematic door that sits slightly open. Over it is a sign that reads: "Fehlgeschlagenen Experimente."
[17:52] <TesKin> "Uh. You speak German?"
[17:52] <%TeslaTornado> Harris looks at the sign, then over at Branko. "Gehsundheit."
[17:52] <TesKin> Branko looks at Harris like "wat"
[17:53] <%TeslaTornado> He shrugs, and goes to crouch and inspect the other side of the door through the crack. "No goddamn clue what that means."
01[17:53] <Daedalus|GMs> The other side is dimly light by emergancy lights
[17:54] <TesKin> 4df+9 (Engineering + Combat Engineer) This door functioning?

01[17:54] <Daedalus|GMs> The door was probably powered by air. Now that the electricity is off, you might be able to just push the door aside.
[17:55] <TesKin> Branko sets Jar!Lis down and pushes the door.
[17:55] <TesKin> 4df+6 (STR) Branko is STRONK like Russian bear!
[17:55] <Glacon> TesKin: (STR) Branko is STRONK like Russian bear!: 3 (4df+6=4-, 4-, 0, 4-)
[17:55] <%TeslaTornado> Harris lends a (probably unnecessary) hand.
[17:55] <TesKin> (Sheit.)
[17:55] <%TeslaTornado> 4df+3 (STR) Harris ain't no galldurn pansy!
[17:55] <Glacon> TeslaTornado: (STR) Harris ain't no galldurn pansy!: 5 (4df+3=3+, 3+, 4-, 3+)
01[17:56] <Daedalus|GMs> With Harris' help, the door is slid over!
[17:56] <TesKin> Branko nods to Harris. "Spasibo."
[17:56] <TesKin> He picks Jar!Lis up.
[17:56] <%TeslaTornado> "Bless ye'." Harris scoots through the open door.
[17:57] <TesKin> Branko follows him.
[17:57] <@Nemi> The blue ooze within still crackles with internal lightning. It's kind of neat. The eye continues to peer at its surroundings.
[17:58] <%TeslaTornado> Harris pokes the glass experimentally, and waves.
01[18:00] <Daedalus|GMs> It's a normal hallway lined with several doors. Windows cover the walls, through which you can't see much. They're covered with a thin layer of dust.
[18:00] <@Nemi> The eye waaatches the poke. There's some more light activity from within the jar.
[18:01] <TesKin> Branko walks along the hallway, looking for anything that looks like a generator room.
01[18:03] <Daedalus|GMs> There isn't any signs, but the door at the end of the hall looks promising. It has a sign that reads "Genetische Störungen" and
01[18:03] <Daedalus|GMs> "Not-Generator"
[18:03] <TesKin> "Uh. Think that's it?"
[18:03] <%TeslaTornado> Harris walks as well. It distantly occurs to him that if he shook Jar!Lis' jar, it would act as an adequate light source.
[18:03] <%TeslaTornado> "Uh, I'unno, it says 'Not-Generator' on it."
[18:03] <%TeslaTornado> 4df+4 (PERC) Harris looks for an intercom panel
[18:03] <Glacon> TeslaTornado: (PERC) Harris looks for an intercom panel: 3 (4df+4=0, 0, 4-, 0)
01[18:04] <Daedalus|GMs> There is on!
01[18:04] <Daedalus|GMs> one*
[18:04] <%TeslaTornado> Harris keys it. "Heeeey, Doctor man. Y'all there."
01[18:06] <Daedalus|GMs> «Oh, Harris, is it? You've found an intercom panel?»
[18:07] <%TeslaTornado> «Yup. We're in the storage wing an' the big fucker'n I cain't read German. We got somethin' that says [butchered pronunciation of Genetische Storungen] an' 'Not-Generator'.»
01[18:07] <Daedalus|GMs> «Ah, yes. The Emergency Generator is through there.»
[18:07] <TesKin> Branko walks into the room.
[18:08] <%TeslaTornado> «Alllrighty then. Thanks, boss.» Harris unkeys the intercom and follows Branko into the room.
01[18:08] <Daedalus|GMs> Door's locked.
[18:08] <TesKin> 4df+6 (STR) Force it!
[18:08] <Glacon> TesKin: (STR) Force it!: 9 (4df+6=0, 3+, 3+, 3+)
[18:08] <%TeslaTornado> Harris stands back. "Aw, c'mon, man, we coulda just picked it, 'r somethin'."
01[18:08] <Daedalus|GMs> The door opens with the force of Branko's push!
[18:09] <TesKin> "Faster this way. Come on."
[18:09] <TesKin> He walks into the room.
[18:09] <%TeslaTornado> Harris follows, as always.
01[18:11] <Daedalus|GMs> Inside are four large glass cylinders containing some sort of greenish luminecent liquid, though which you can see vaguely humanoid shapes. The room is dusty and filled with cobwebs and old, dilapidated equipment that looks as if it might be used for some sort of surgery. Body parts in jars and bones cover tables.
[18:12] <TesKin> Branko looks around. "I wish we took the weapons room."
[18:12] <%TeslaTornado> "… Aww, hell, that ain' right." Harris lets out a sigh, his eyes widening slightly. He wrings his hand in front of him, and makes his way quietly through the room.
[18:12] <TesKin> Branko follows.
01[18:12] <Daedalus|GMs> There's a door at the other end, labeled "Not-Generator"
[18:13] <TesKin> Branko tries it.
01[18:13] <Daedalus|GMs> It's locked.

01[18:15] <Daedalus|GMs> Harris, you swear you see something moving out of the corner of your eye. Probably a rat though.
[18:16] <%TeslaTornado> "Somethin' movin' 'round. Rat, prob'ly." Harris shrugs. He lights up another cigarette.
[18:16] <TesKin> Branko looks at Harris. "Spare one?"
01[18:17] <Daedalus|GMs> The door opens without incident, and inside is a large generator room.
[18:17] <%TeslaTornado> "Nah, y'all might not like 'em, they're kinda nasty." Harris keeps the pack to himself, walking slowly into the room.
[18:17] <TesKin> Branko grunts, walking behind Harris.
03[18:18] * Retrieving #tooltime modes…
[18:18] <%TeslaTornado> Harris squints slightly, looking for access to the generator.
01[18:19] <Daedalus|GMs> Inside is, lo and behold, two emergancy generators! One isn't running, however.
01[18:19] <Daedalus|GMs> It's also rather dark in here.
[18:19] <TesKin> Branko stes Jar!Lis down.
[18:19] <TesKin> "Dermo. I do not have a flashlight."
[18:20] <@Nemi> Jar-Lis is giving off a small amount of eerily blue light.
[18:21] <TesKin> Branko picks her up and carries her over to the generator.
[18:21] <TesKin> 4df+5 (Engineering)
[18:21] <Glacon> TesKin: (Engineering): 7 (4df+5=3+, 4-, 3+, 3+)
[18:21] <%TeslaTornado> Harris considers shaking the jar up again, then reconsiders it. He picks the matchbook from his pocket and cautiously lights one. "Stick close t'me, alright?"
[18:21] <%TeslaTornado> "It's right eerie down there an' I don't wanna get jumped by no Nahtzis."
[18:21] <TesKin> Branko nods. "Da. I would like to avoid Nazis."
[18:23] <%TeslaTornado> Harris starts his slow walk toward the generator. "Bring th' Jello. Don't reckon it'll take me too long t'get this thang singin' like a bird again."
[18:23] <TesKin> "Between the two of us we will have no problem."
01[18:24] <Daedalus|GMs> The match is bright enough to examine the control panel.
[18:24] <TesKin> Branko does so!
[18:24] <%TeslaTornado> "'Tween the two of us?" Harris scoffs. "Shit, friend, I've seen kiddie toys more complicated'n this." Harris investigates.
[18:25] <%TeslaTornado> 4df+6 (ENG + NDIG) How much of this actually makes sense to Harris?
[18:25] <Glacon> TeslaTornado: (ENG + NDIG) How much of this actually makes sense to Harris?: 3 (4df+6=0, 4-, 4-, 4-)
[18:25] <TesKin> "I was trained by the Russian military in engineering."

01[18:26] <Daedalus|GMs> Well, Harris doesn't understand it very well, but Branko gets the jist of it. Looks like you need to pull a few levers and push a button to get it started. You think.
[18:27] <TesKin> Branko sets about pulling levers and push button.
[18:27] <%TeslaTornado> Harris huffs. "How mucha this d'you get?"
[18:27] <TesKin> "Enough. I think."
[18:27] <%TeslaTornado> 4df+6 (ENG + NDIG) Harris sets himself about inspecting the actual mechanics of the generator.

01[18:28] <Daedalus|GMs> The other engine being to huff to life. It starts slow at first, but then begins to whirr faster and faster. The lights in the room begin to flicker on.
[18:29] <TesKin> Branko nods, grinning. "Hopefully the others will get theirs running soon."

[18:30] <%TeslaTornado> "Ayuh—FUCK SHUT IT OFF." Harris clambers down from the works of the generator.

01[18:31] <Daedalus|GMs> Metal blast doors drop down into the doorframes, locking.
[18:31] <TesKin> "Dermo!"
01[18:31] <Daedalus|GMs> The generator control panel has it's own mini blast shield drop down and cover it as well.
[18:27] <gumbal1> "Damn, locked."
[18:27] <gumbal1> Seymour examines the lock, should it have a visible one. "Can you pick locks?"
01[18:28] <Daedalus|GMs> The lights in this room begin to flicker on. Exposed wires hanging from the roof begin to spark.

[18:33] <gumbal1> "Oh fuck, that's not good."
01[18:33] <Daedalus|GMs> The main generator blast door seems to be malfunctioning.

[18:36] <Glacon> GraemeCracker: Murray tries to remember his German: 1 (4df+5=4-, 4-, 4-, 4-)
01[18:36] <Daedalus|GMs> Murray, you see nothing.
[18:37] <gumbal1> Seymour grabs it and hurridly attempts to open the generator door.
01[18:37] <Daedalus|GMs> In this stressful situation, you can't remember Germann Murray.
01[18:37] <Daedalus|GMs> The door opens, Seymour!
[18:38] <GraemeCracker> "OH, fantastic!" Murray hurries after Seymour, trying to get away from all these sirens.
01[18:38] <Daedalus|GMs> Inside is a large generator.
[18:38] <gumbal1> "Should we turn it on?!"
[18:39] <GraemeCracker> "I-I think? Try it!"

01[18:42] <Daedalus|GMs> You think that pressing these buttons here and pulling this lever would do it, Seymour, but it's all in German. Wouldn't hurt to give it a try.
[18:43] <gumbal1> Fuck it, might as well. Seymour pushes said buttons and hopes nothing will make him accidently push other ones.
01[18:44] <Daedalus|GMs> The Generator is activated!
01[18:44] <Daedalus|GMs> Power begins to flood the room, brightening the lights.
01[18:45] <Daedalus|GMs> Then, the lights dim a bit.
[18:31] <%TeslaTornado> "That ain't good!" Harris continues scrabbling around the machinery, looking for the kill switch. It'd be bad if these things weren't built with an emergency shutoff because otherwise explosions.
[18:32] <TesKin> Branko looks around for a pipe or something to use as a weapon. Just incase.
01[18:33] <Daedalus|GMs> «Achtung ! Unbefugtes Einschalten des Generators erkannt!» The intercom sounds
[18:33] <TesKin> "Uh."

[18:34] <%TeslaTornado> Harris is still looking for the manual failsafe on the generator.
01[18:36] <Daedalus|GMs> There seems not to be one, but there is a metal pipe you could possibly pry loose. The generator has an exposed wheel that you could possibly stick the pipe into to stop it.

[18:38] <TesKin> Branko tosses it up to Harris.
[18:38] <%TeslaTornado> Harris reaches out to catch it.
01[18:38] <Daedalus|GMs> Agility!
[18:39] <%TeslaTornado> 4df+3 (AGI) Harris' catching skills must be on point.

01[18:39] <Daedalus|GMs> You fumble, and it hits you square in the face.
[18:41] <%TeslaTornado> Harris clamps down on his face, attempting to grip the pipe on impact.
[18:41] <TesKin> "Sorry!"
01[18:41] <Daedalus|GMs> You manage to catch the pipe!
[18:41] <%TeslaTornado> "It's all good, I ain't goin' dancin' any time soon!" Harris veeery carefully jams the pipe into the wheel.
[18:42] <TesKin> Branko looks back at the blast door.
01[18:43] <Daedalus|GMs> The wheel is interuppted, and the power begins to flicker.
[18:43] <%TeslaTornado> Harris holds the pipe like a wheel-brake.
[18:43] <%TeslaTornado> ~Ohh man, I'm gonna feel this in the mornin'.~
[18:44] <TesKin> Branko scampers up to Harris, grabbing the pipe as well.
01[18:44] <Daedalus|GMs> The power goes off.
01[18:44] <Daedalus|GMs> But then is reactivated by something else.
[18:44] <TesKin> "Take it out!"
[18:45] <%TeslaTornado> Harris pulls the pipe back!
[18:45] <TesKin> Branko helps!
01[18:45] <Daedalus|GMs> The generator reactivates!
01[18:45] <Daedalus|GMs> The lights once again brighten.
[18:46] <%TeslaTornado> Harris cackles.
[18:46] <TesKin> Branko grins. "Okay, now the door."
01[18:46] <Daedalus|GMs> «Achtung ! Standbildaufnahme deaktiviert.» The intercom sounds as the doors open.
[18:47] <%TeslaTornado> "Right, yup, that seems like a solid idea." Harris walks back towards the blast door, then casually ducks under it on his way.
[18:47] <TesKin> "Ooorrr that."
[18:45] <gumbal1> Seymour waits for the other door to open.
[18:46] <GraemeCracker> "…Did that work?"

[18:47] <gumbal1> "Depends. Didd we want to escape, or just activate the l-yes, looks like it did work."
[18:49] <GraemeCracker> "Well I'll be damned. Alright, let's see what's up then."
[18:49] <GraemeCracker> Murray cautiously walks back into the weapons room.
[18:49] <gumbal1> Seymour heads back up the stairs to the big door.
01[18:50] <Daedalus|GMs> You may notice that black manniquins dressed in Nazi uniforms are now shuffling outsdie fo the generator room. they look like they're cleaning and repairing things.

[18:54] <gumbal1> "They should be. I doubt the slave labor they used was rather loyal to them."
01[18:56] <Daedalus|GMs> Several other ones stand in front of the exit.
[18:56] <GraemeCracker> Murray stops running, turning back to head down the stairs.
[18:57] <GraemeCracker> "Why are there so many?!"
01[18:58] <Daedalus|GMs> One of them, taller than the rest and wearing a dark black uniform approaches them, "Bezeichnung?" It asks mechanically.
[18:58] <gumbal1> Seymour blinks.
[18:59] <gumbal1> 4df+0 What the German word for yes, again?
[18:59] <Glacon> gumbal1: What the German word for yes, again?: 0 (4df+0=0, 4-, 3+, 0)
[18:59] <gumbal1> (Academics)
[18:59] <GraemeCracker> 4df+5 german remember please
[18:59] <Glacon> GraemeCracker: german remember please: 7 (4df+5=3+, 0, 3+, 0)
01[18:59] <Daedalus|GMs> It asked 'Identification?'
[19:00] <GraemeCracker> "Uh…Ah shit…" «Uh, specify?»
01[19:01] <Daedalus|GMs> «[Please present your identification cards presently]»
[19:02] <gumbal1> Seymour remains silent.
01[19:03] <Daedalus|GMs> Perception!
[19:03] <GraemeCracker> "…Hey, Seymour. You didn't happen to pick up any id cards did ya?"
[19:03] <GraemeCracker> 4df+5 eyes
[19:03] <Glacon> GraemeCracker: eyes: 3 (4df+5=0, 0, 4-, 4-)
[19:04] <gumbal1> 4df+5 shit
[19:04] <Glacon> gumbal1: shit: 4 (4df+5=4-, 3+, 4-, 0)
03[19:04] * Balthazaar (~PI.8A1E6D34.4CA5F5C.A90778FF|alliztahc#PI.8A1E6D34.4CA5F5C.A90778FF|alliztahc) has joined #homeimprovement
03[19:04] * ChanServ sets mode: +h Balthazaar
[19:04] <gumbal1> Seymour checks his key ring he picked up. It was a key ring, right?
01[19:05] <Daedalus|GMs> It was!
01[19:05] <Daedalus|GMs> Murray, you notice there's a keycard a few tables away. You also notice there's a weapon sitting closer to you.
[19:06] <gumbal1> He checks to see if it has an ID.
01[19:06] <Daedalus|GMs> Seymour, there isn't an ID on it, just more keys.
[19:06] <GraemeCracker> «Er…Certainly, it's…On that table, right over there.»
[19:08] <gumbal1> Seymour stands there with a ring of keys, like a child caught with a cookie (Like that one time with little Alan).
01[19:08] <Daedalus|GMs> They turn towards the card. One of them looks at it and communicates with the others in a strange, buzzy language. «That does not look like you»
[19:10] <gumbal1> Seymour stops reminiscing on his children's rebellious behavior as Robo-Nazi's voice cuts through.
[19:11] <GraemeCracker> «It's a very old card.»
01[19:12] <Daedalus|GMs> «You are Mary Edwards?»
[19:13] <GraemeCracker> Murray looks to Seymour, nodding lightly towards the gun on the table. «And as you understand, it needs to be update-yes, I am Mary.»
[19:13] <GraemeCracker> «Do you have doubts?»
[19:14] <gumbal1> Seymour nods, and slowly edges towards the firearms, doing a Nazi salute in the wrong arm in an vain attempt to not be accousted.
[19:14] <gumbal1> ~Worth a shot~
01[19:14] <Daedalus|GMs> «Yes.» The machine replies flatly, «Come with us to the proper authorities»
01[19:14] <Daedalus|GMs> Roll sneak to not be spoted.
[19:16] <GraemeCracker> «Er, no can do. Very busy you see, working on the uh…Flammenwerfers and…Nebelwerfers and so on. You'd be halting major progress.»
[19:16] <gumbal1> 4df+0 Oh dear.
[19:16] <Glacon> gumbal1: Oh dear.: -2 (4df+0=4-, 0, 4-, 0)
01[19:16] <Daedalus|GMs> They see you inching towards the weapons and several tackle you. Pdef!
[19:17] <gumbal1> 4df+6 Strong like an ox!
[19:17] <Glacon> gumbal1: Strong like an ox!: 7 (4df+6=3+, 0, 3+, 4-)
01[19:18] <Daedalus|GMs> You throw them off you!
[19:18] <GraemeCracker> «Hey! You're attacking a very important representative of our leader!»
01[19:19] <Daedalus|GMs> Now would probably be a good time to get those weapons.
[19:19] <gumbal1> Seymour grabs one of the weapons.
[19:19] <gumbal1> 4df+2 (Melee) And hopes it doesn't explode as he whaps a Nazi-Robot in the face.
[19:19] <Glacon> gumbal1: (Melee) And hopes it doesn't explode as he whaps a Nazi-Robot in the face.: -1 (4df+2=4-, 0, 4-, 4-)
[19:20] <GraemeCracker> Murray gives up his attempt at the charade, reaching for one of the space-guns
[19:23] <GraemeCracker> Once he figures out where the trigger his, he opens fire on one of the robo-hitlers
[19:23] <GraemeCracker> 4df+5 blammo
[19:23] <Glacon> GraemeCracker: blammo: 5 (4df+5=3+, 4-, 3+, 4-)
01[19:24] <Daedalus|GMs> You just picked up the motherfucking Donnerwaffe, Seymour. It's a rocket assisted, sonic-powered hammer with a 50 pound head intended the flip over /motherfucking/ /tanks/.
[19:25] <gumbal1> And how badly did he fuck up when he attempted to pistol wip Mecha Hans?
01[19:27] <Daedalus|GMs> Of course, it flies out his hands and across the room.
01[19:28] <Daedalus|GMs> Where it hits Murray.
01[19:28] <Daedalus|GMs> Pdef Murray
[19:28] <gumbal1> "…fuck."
[19:28] <GraemeCracker> 4df+5 sheeiit
[19:28] <Glacon> GraemeCracker: sheeiit: 5 (4df+5=4-, 3+, 4-, 3+)
01[19:29] <Daedalus|GMs> 4df+9 Sorry, Murray
[19:29] <Glacon> Daedalus|GMs: Sorry, Murray: 8 (4df+9=4-, 0, 3+, 4-)
01[19:29] <Daedalus|GMs> Well, you're knocked straight back by the sheer force of the hammer hitting your chest.
[19:30] <gumbal1> Seymour just stares, somewhat cognizant of the fact that he fucked up for the first few seconds before the full brunt hits him.
01[19:30] <Daedalus|GMs> Take -2.5 damage
[19:32] <gumbal1> "Uhh…take that, enemy of the State!"
[19:32] <GraemeCracker> Murray attempts to yelp out in pain, but can only seem to expel a small wheeze as he's smashed into the ground
01[19:32] <Daedalus|GMs> The automatons clap.
[19:32] <gumbal1> He turns to Robo-Hitler. "I am here to escort this man to his fate. It trust you will allow it?"
[19:33] <GraemeCracker> Murray slowly sits up, trying not to cough up too much blood.
01[19:33] <Daedalus|GMs> «Gute Arbeit!» It says, «It is strange that you speak English, but I will allow it.» The machine salutes in Nazi fasion.
[19:34] <gumbal1> Seymour goes up to Murray and stands him up, making sure to keep his arms in a grip. He leads him up the stares.
01[19:35] <Daedalus|GMs> «Your weapon, sir!» They offer him the hammer.
[19:36] <GraemeCracker> "I feel like…Ugh, «Ich bin ein berliner.»
[19:37] <gumbal1> Seymour slaps Murray. "Later. I need to deal with this one first."
[19:37] <GraemeCracker> "ah-fuck!"
[19:38] <gumbal1> Seymour slaps himm again. "Quiet, CIA pigdog!"
01[19:38] <Daedalus|GMs> The automatons applaud.
01[19:39] <Daedalus|GMs> «If you need anything else, please ask.»
[19:39] <GraemeCracker> Murray winces as he is hit again.
[19:39] <gumbal1> Seymour gives one final Heil, and heads up the stairs, Murray in tow. He hopes to god the others are doing well.
18:47] <TesKin> Branko grabs Jar!Lis and follows Harris.
01[18:47] <Daedalus|GMs> You may notice one tiny detail.
01[18:49] <Daedalus|GMs> One of the glass cylindrical containers have been broken open. Green goop covers the floor.
01[18:50] <Daedalus|GMs> And leaves a trail that goes out the now oepn door.
[18:50] <TesKin> "Yebat."
[18:50] <TesKin> Branko looks at Harris. "Still got that pipe?"
[18:50] <%TeslaTornado> "… Well that's just not fair at all." Harris holds up his empty hands.
[18:51] <TesKin> "Dermo. Alright, keep moving then."
[18:51] <%TeslaTornado> "Right, you got it." Harris keeps on rollin'.
[18:51] <TesKin> Branko follows after him.
01[18:52] <Daedalus|GMs> Back through the hallway, you can hear something shuffling.
[18:52] <TesKin> 4df+3 (PERC) Hallo?
[18:52] <Glacon> TesKin: (PERC) Hallo?: 4 (4df+3=3+, 0, 3+, 4-)
[18:52] <%TeslaTornado> 4df+4 (PERC) Aw that's not good
[18:52] <Glacon> TeslaTornado: (PERC) Aw that's not good: 4 (4df+4=4-, 4-, 3+, 3+)
01[18:55] <Daedalus|GMs> It's something grotesque and scally, it's legs and arms not unlike that of a lizard's. It looks to be wearing some sort of prison jumpsuit, and is crawling away from you. Another one, standing upright, is wandering out of a doorway, ice covering her face and clouding her eyes, her skin pale and deathlike.
[18:55] <TesKin> Branko looks at the creatures. Then at Harris. Then back at the creatures. "Plans?"
[18:56] <%TeslaTornado> Harris looks at the creatures, his eyes slightly widened. "Uh. Nope. Don't bother 'um right now."
[18:56] <%TeslaTornado> "They ain't after us. We ain't after 'em. Mebbe they'll leave us alone?"
[18:56] <TesKin> Branko nods. "Hopefully."
[18:56] <TesKin> "I wish I still had my weapons."
[18:57] <%TeslaTornado> "Keep on walkin'. It ain't no problem for now." Harris wrings his hands in front of him, nervously walking towards the exit of the room.
[18:57] <TesKin> Branko follows him.
[18:57] <%TeslaTornado> Once he clears it, he goes to the intercom panel.
[18:58] <@Nemi> Lis' eye bobs about in the jar.
[18:59] <%TeslaTornado> Harris keys the intercom. «Uh, doc, we got a couple things in tubes what got out 'n' are goin' yonderin'. Some kinda big lizard feller, an' an icy girl.»
01[19:00] <Daedalus|GMs> «Oh, Harris. I though you had died…» He whispers over the intercom, «You must be refering to the Goldenstiens. Yes, unfortunate, isn't it? They should be dead.»
[19:01] <TesKin> «Are they hostile?»
[19:01] <%TeslaTornado> «Dead, doc?» Harris scratches the back of his head as he lights another Viceroy. «Are the - yeah, I mean, can they still, like, talk an' think? Can we not fight 'em?»
01[19:02] <Daedalus|GMs> «What? Eh… I don't know. I thought they were dead.»
[19:02] <TesKin> Branko sighs. "Let's leave them alone then."
[19:02] <%TeslaTornado> Harris sighs. «… Alright, doc, we'll play it safe. Be careful up there.» He unkeys the intercom and heads for the main area.
[19:03] <TesKin> Branko follows him. "Those creatures… It is to bad they are living like that."
[19:03] <%TeslaTornado> "Ayuh. Mebbe we ken wrangle 'em up an' bring 'em to the Foundation, fix 'em? Y'think?" Harris drags off the cigarette as he walks.
01[19:04] <Daedalus|GMs> They both wander towards the door.
[19:04] <TesKin> Branko nods. "Anything is possible."
01[19:04] <Daedalus|GMs> Upon noticing Branko and Harris, they both freeze and stare.
[19:05] <TesKin> "We are not here to hurt you." Branko tries to sound soothing.
[19:05] <%TeslaTornado> Harris raises his hands calmly. He looks to the woman first. "Evenin', folks. Spreeken zee English?"
[19:05] <%TeslaTornado> 4df+3 (Persuasion) Oh god Harris your accent is awful
[19:05] <Glacon> TeslaTornado: (Persuasion) Oh god Harris your accent is awful: 4 (4df+3=3+, 3+, 4-, 0)
01[19:07] <Daedalus|GMs> The woman approaches you Harris, her white eyes focusing on you. She steps closer, and you can feel the cold emanating from her.
01[19:07] <Daedalus|GMs> The Lizard man just growls.
[19:07] <%TeslaTornado> Harris is… Oddly calm.
[19:08] <%TeslaTornado> He does a kind of half-bow from the waist, folding one hand in front of him.
[19:08] <%TeslaTornado> "Ma'am."
[19:08] <TesKin> Branko watches the Lizard man.
01[19:09] <Daedalus|GMs> The woman raises a hand towards you, Harris
[19:09] <TesKin> "Careful Harris."
01[19:10] <Daedalus|GMs> Both of her hands approach your face. They feel icy cold.
[19:10] <%TeslaTornado> Harris raises a hand in a mirrored gesture.
[19:10] <%TeslaTornado> "Ain't gonna hurt y'all, ma'am."
[19:10] <%TeslaTornado> "Din't come here f'r a fight. Just helpin' a friend."
[19:10] <TesKin> Branko nods, still watching Lizard Man.
[19:10] <%TeslaTornado> A few wisping contrails of smoke drift upward from the tip of the Viceroy.
[19:11] <@Nemi> Lis' eye peers over to Branko, then back to ice lady.
[19:11] <TesKin> ~One wrong move and it's over.~
01[19:11] <Daedalus|GMs> The woman's face comes ever closer to Harris. Her hands are starting to feel a bit uncomfortably cold.
[19:12] <TesKin> "Harris…"
01[19:12] <Daedalus|GMs> The lizard man growls.
[19:12] <%TeslaTornado> 4df+3 "Ma'am, yer a mite uncomfortable. Step back, please." Harris doesn't move, but hopes like hell that his tone conveys what language can't.
[19:12] <Glacon> TeslaTornado: "Ma'am, yer a mite uncomfortable. Step back, please." Harris doesn't move, but hopes like hell that his tone conveys what language can't.: 5 (4df+3=3+, 3+, 0, 0)
[19:12] <TesKin> Branko watches Lizard Man.
[19:12] <%TeslaTornado> He keeps his hands raised and palms turned out towards the others.
01[19:15] <Daedalus|GMs> The woman smiles, and with her forefinger and middle finger, puts out his cigarette.
[19:15] <TesKin> "Guess you do not like smokers ma'am?"
[19:15] <%TeslaTornado> Harris smiles back. "Ma'am, now that's just rude. Ain't no need t' be puttin' out a man's smoke like that."
[19:15] <%TeslaTornado> He cautiously removes the half-burnt Viceroy and flicks it to the ground.
[19:17] <%TeslaTornado> ~Of all the girls I've ever flirted with, I never seen one this cold.~
01[19:17] <Daedalus|GMs> She removes one hand from his face, forms an icicle over her arm, and stabs him in the gut.
01[19:18] <Daedalus|GMs> Pdef not to be frozen over!
[19:18] <%TeslaTornado> *GAHK*
[19:19] <%TeslaTornado> 4df+7 (PDEF + Sit Down, Boy) "*UCK*… B-branko, y'all b-best not be doin' nothin' rash…"

[19:19] <TesKin> Branko veerryy calmly sets Jar!Lis down and cracks his knuckles.
01[19:19] <Daedalus|GMs> You manage to resist and pull back as she attempts to freeze you.
[19:19] <TesKin> "Nothing of the sort Harris."
[19:20] <%TeslaTornado> Harris blinks a couple times, keeping his hands back. "Ma'am! I ain't doin' nothin' wrong! Don't do that, stabbin' people hurts!"
01[19:27] <Daedalus|GMs> 4df+6 She then attempts to grab harris by the throat
[19:27] <Glacon> Daedalus|GMs: She then attempts to grab harris by the throat: 3 (4df+6=4-, 0, 4-, 4-)
[19:27] <%TeslaTornado> 4df+7 (PDEF + Sit Down, Boy) "Ma'am, throat grabs're illegal, that ain't a fair fightin' rule." Harris firmly but gently breaks the block attempt, still circling away from her.
[19:27] <Glacon> TeslaTornado: (PDEF + Sit Down, Boy) "Ma'am, throat grabs're illegal, that ain't a fair fightin' rule." Harris firmly but gently breaks the block attempt, still circling away from her.: 9 (4df+7=4-, 3+, 3+, 3+)

[19:40] <TesKin> Oh yes.
01[19:40] <Daedalus|GMs> You beat the everliving shit out of the Lizard man. -3 damage and it's unconsious.
[19:41] <%TeslaTornado> 4df+7 (PDEF + Sit Down, Boy) Harris attempts to knock the woman's hands away. "These're my good boots, lady, please stop!"

01[19:43] <Daedalus|GMs> Well, she's grabbed.
01[19:44] <Daedalus|GMs> She's ice cold.
[19:44] <%TeslaTornado> "Gawd dammit, don't you hurt her, Branko, you big damn oaf!" Harris snatches the bell jar and scuttles back towards the main area.
[19:44] <TesKin> 4df+6 (STR) Restrain!

01[19:44] <Daedalus|GMs> She is restrained with a passion.
[19:45] <TesKin> "You try to kill my friend. You are lucky I am told otherwise, or I would kill you where you stand."
[19:45] <%TeslaTornado> Harris scoots.
01[19:45] <Daedalus|GMs> Unfortunately, she cannot understand English.
01[19:46] <Daedalus|GMs> 4df+7 She attempts to freeze him off.

[19:46] <TesKin> (NO NO NO NO NO)
01[19:47] <Daedalus|GMs> Oh my God. She freezes him quickly and solidly, slipping out of his grasp. He's now covered in an inch of ice, and is frozen.
01[19:48] <Daedalus|GMs> Solid.
[19:48] <TesKin> ~At least Harris got away~
[19:40] <gumbal1> Once Seymour's up the stairs away from the androids, he checks for two things:
[19:40] <GraemeCracker> Murray limps, spitting a little onto the floor. "Was the…Slap really necessary?"
[19:41] <gumbal1> A) More Nazis
[19:41] <gumbal1> B) Any changes in the hallway that would indicate the other team did something.
01[19:42] <Daedalus|GMs> Well, the hallway's much brighter now.
01[19:43] <Daedalus|GMs> You can also hear the sounds of people struggling in the experimental storage.
[19:43] <gumbal1> Seymour doublechecks to see if there are any Mechahitlers around. If there aren't, he whispers to Murray. "It sure helped."
[19:43] <gumbal1> 4df+7 (MED+ITN) He also treats Murray's wound.

[19:44] <GraemeCracker> "B-but…" Murray sighs, sitting back as he's treated. "Alright."
[19:46] <%TeslaTornado> Harris scoot-scoot-scoots back out to the main area. He's got a gut wound and looks mildly frazzled. "Any of y'all know how to speak German?"
[19:47] <GraemeCracker> Murray raises a hand, grunting. "Why, more robots?"
[19:48] <gumbal1> 4df+7 (MED+ITN) Once he's done with Murray, he goes over to attend to Harris.
[19:48] <Glacon> gumbal1: (MED+ITN) Once he's done with Murray, he goes over to attend to Harris.: 8 (4df+7=3+, 4-, 3+, 0)
[19:48] <%TeslaTornado> "Uh no, some girl, she, uh, she can freeze shit, an' she only speaks German, 'n Branko's in there holdin' on to her an' I kinda wanna make her not, y'know, try ta freeze our shit."
[19:49] <GraemeCracker> "…Ah. Alright, I'll see what I can do." Murray winces as he stands, wandering over to see Branko and the frozen girl.
[19:49] <%TeslaTornado> "Ain't got time f'r this, guy." Harris bounces on his heels.
[19:49] <gumbal1> "Fine, then."
[19:50] <gumbal1> "By the way, don't go down to weapons. There's robot nazis there."
[19:50] <gumbal1> "And I never thought I'd say something like that in my life."
[19:51] <%TeslaTornado> "… Serious?" Harris shakes his head. "Never mind, just. C'mon."
01[19:48] <Daedalus|GMs> The ice lady examines the frozen Branko, tilting her head.
[19:49] <TesKin> Branko's big, and looks very /very/ angry.
[19:49] <GraemeCracker> Murray wanders in, looking around. "Uh…Branko, you in here?"
[19:50] <TesKin> Because he's a large hunk of ice, Branko cannot speak.
01[19:50] <Daedalus|GMs> The woman forms her fist into a large, heavy chunk of ice.
[19:51] <GraemeCracker> 4df+5 Murray just sorta looks around the room, frowning. "Hey, c'mon, heard you got someone I need to translate for here."
[19:51] <Glacon> GraemeCracker: Murray just sorta looks around the room, frowning. "Hey, c'mon, heard you got someone I need to translate for here.": 4 (4df+5=4-, 3+, 0, 4-)
01[19:51] <Daedalus|GMs> She positions it over Branko's head.
[19:51] <TesKin> Because he is frozen, Branko watches.
01[19:51] <Daedalus|GMs> Murray, you see a woman with a Frozen branko.
[19:51] <TesKin> ~At least Harris got away.~
[19:52] <GraemeCracker> "I mean like-oh hey!
[19:52] <GraemeCracker> "
01[19:52] <Daedalus|GMs> And with one fell swoop…
01[19:52] <Daedalus|GMs> 4df+7 She turns quickly towards Murray and misses!
[19:52] <Glacon> Daedalus|GMs: She turns quickly towards Murray and misses!: 6 (4df+7=0, 4-, 3+, 4-)
01[19:53] <Daedalus|GMs> Branko's left arm shatters from half the bicep down.
[19:53] <TesKin> If he can, Branko screams.
[19:53] <GraemeCracker> «What's the big ide-» "OH SHIT BRANKO"
01[19:53] <Daedalus|GMs> She screams, and lunges at Murray.
[19:53] <%TeslaTornado> Harris hurtles into the room and—
[19:53] <GraemeCracker> 4df+3 oh man does Murray wish he had that gun he picked up. He tries to tackle the frozen gal.
[19:53] <Glacon> GraemeCracker: oh man
[19:54] <%TeslaTornado> 4df+6 (Melee + Sit Down, Boy) "HEY THAT IS VERY INAPPROPRIATE AN' UNBECOMIN' FOR A YOUNG LADY SUCH'S YOURSELF." Harris FLYING TACKLES a motherfucker.

[19:54] <Glacon> Daedalus|GMs: Dodge: 3 (4df+6=4-, 4-, 0, 4-)
01[19:54] <Daedalus|GMs> Well, she's tackled
[19:55] <gumbal1> Seymour blinks at the spectacle, not sure what to do.
[19:55] <GraemeCracker> "Doc, fix him!"
[19:55] <%TeslaTornado> Harris pins her arms down with his knees and sits on her chest. He's a bigish, kinda heavy guy. "German speakin' dude, speak German."
[19:55] <%TeslaTornado> "Tell her she's bein' an asshole an' we ain't here to kill her or nothin'."
[19:55] <GraemeCracker> «Now what the HELL was that for, lady?» Murray turns to the girl.
01[19:56] <Daedalus|GMs> The lady screams in garbled German and Polish «KILLERS! KILLERS! MURDERERS!»
[19:57] <%TeslaTornado> "STOP SCREAMIN' PLEASE."
[19:57] <%TeslaTornado> "HURTIN' MY EARS."
[19:57] <GraemeCracker> "Oh you've gotta be-" «Miss, I need you to calm down!»
[19:57] <gumbal1> Seymour silently panics.
01[19:58] <Daedalus|GMs> 4df+7 She hyperventilates as tears fall down her face. She attempts to freeze Harris

01[20:02] <Daedalus|GMs> Harris, you feel a deep cold around your fingers, enough that you can't hold her any longer. She falls to the floor.
[20:03] <%TeslaTornado> Harris steps back and raises his hands. "Bud, translate what I'm sayin, please. Please. I cain't kill her."
[20:03] <%TeslaTornado> "Don't want nobody to die today."

01[20:03] <Daedalus|GMs> Right next to the lizard man, too.
[20:04] <%TeslaTornado> "…. Welp." Harris looks down at the two unconscious thingies.
[20:04] <%TeslaTornado> "That made that easy."
[20:04] <gumbal1> "…uh."
[20:04] <gumbal1> "I…don't know what just happened."
[20:04] <GraemeCracker> Murray stares blankly at the two. "…Which I guess worked." He turns to frozen Branko.
[20:04] <TesKin> Blood from Branko's severed arm drips slowls onto the floor.
[20:04] <TesKin> slowly*
[20:04] <%TeslaTornado> Harris lets out a sigh. "We need t' get him out an' tourney-kit that wound so's he doesn't bleed out, n' find that fuckin' bell."
[20:05] <GraemeCracker> "I don't know either, but…He's missing an arm. And encased in ice…"
[20:05] <GraemeCracker> He takes a loot at Branko, wondering if he's even alive in there.
[20:06] <TesKin> Branko's eyes are darting around the room quickly.
[20:06] <gumbal1> Seymour looks up at Branko. "…oh no."
[20:06] <TesKin> Branko looks at the team.
[20:06] <GraemeCracker> "…And he's still alive."
[20:06] <GraemeCracker> "Doc, you know what to do?"
[20:07] <%TeslaTornado> "Oh hey Branko. You're not missin' an arm or anythin'."
[20:07] <TesKin> Branko flicks his eyes as if to say "BITCH I WAS BLOWN UP BY TANKS AND BURNED BY A DRAGON."
[20:07] <gumbal1> 4df+4 (MED) He quickly tries to perform proper "I was frozen today and my arm fell off" procedure oh god nobody taught him this.

[20:08] <Glacon> gumbal1: oh god: 7 (4df+5=0, 3+, 0, 3+)
01[20:09] <Daedalus|GMs> Seymour remember something drawn in the Experimental weapon's lab, a diagram of a heat ray melting a frozen man.
01[20:09] <Daedalus|GMs> You could probably retrieve it.
01[20:10] <Daedalus|GMs> you*
[20:11] <gumbal1> Seymour gulps, and heads out.
[20:12] <%TeslaTornado> Harris stands by, staring at the lizard-guy and the frosty-girl.
01[20:12] <Daedalus|GMs> Both unconsious. Twitching.
[20:12] <GraemeCracker> Murray looks around, wishing he has his gun. "Were there any others?"
[20:12] <%TeslaTornado> "Uh. I think there was one other broken tube. Mebbe." Harris counts the shattered tubes.
[20:13] <GraemeCracker> "…And where's that one?"
01[20:14] <Daedalus|GMs> There was only one broken tube. Another in another lab.
[20:14] <%TeslaTornado> "I take it back."
[20:14] <GraemeCracker> "Huh…Okay. Long as that's all of them."
[20:11] <gumbal1> Seymour goes back to the weapons lab.
01[20:12] <Daedalus|GMs> The Automatons applaud when he enters.
[20:12] <gumbal1> Seymour heils, and begins searching for the heat ray.
01[20:13] <Daedalus|GMs> It's on the table in front of a chalkboard.
[20:14] <gumbal1> Seymour grabs it and gives one last heil as he leaves with it.
01[20:15] <Daedalus|GMs> They heil him back, then continue their work.
20:15] <gumbal1> Seymour comes back with a heat ray.
[20:16] <gumbal1> "Anyone good at firing weapons?"
[20:16] <GraemeCracker> Murray looks up, frowning. "What's that?"
01[20:16] <Daedalus|GMs> It's a short gun that resembles a shotgun with a ray bit at the end of it.
[20:16] <gumbal1> "It's a heat gun."
[20:17] <gumbal1> "Schematics seemed to imply it was, at least."
[20:17] <%TeslaTornado> "Worth a shot, 'least."
[20:17] <GraemeCracker> "Oh." He stands up, nodding. "Okay, I can uh…See what I can do with it. How's it work?"
[20:17] <%TeslaTornado> Harris maintains his watch over the twitching unconscious people.
01[20:17] <Daedalus|GMs> Otherwise known as the Helios Strahl, it was intended to melt ice that may have frozen over vehicles and equipment in snowy Russia.
01[20:19] <Daedalus|GMs> It has a trigger and a heat level slider on it.
01[20:19] <Daedalus|GMs> There are also several dials, but you might not want to mess with those.
[20:19] <gumbal1> Seymour hands it to Murray. "Dunno."
[20:20] <gumbal1> "I just remember it's a heat ray. Or something like that."
[20:20] <GraemeCracker> "…Alright." Murray turns, aiming it at Branko.
01[20:20] <Daedalus|GMs> Engineering + ranged to fire
[20:20] <GraemeCracker> "Listen, if this lights you on fire…Not my fault, okay Branko?"
[20:21] <GraemeCracker> 4df+9 WHRRRR
[20:21] <Glacon> GraemeCracker: WHRRRR: 9 (4df+9=4-, 3+, 0, 0)
[20:21] <TesKin> Because he is frozen, Branko says nothing.
01[20:23] <Daedalus|GMs> The ice around Branko is warmed to about 200 degrees, quickly melting. Branko himself is unharmed, only heating up to about 100 degrees. His arm is effectively cauterized, however.
[20:23] <gumbal1> "Oh dear."
[20:23] <TesKin> Branko slumps to the ground.
[20:24] <GraemeCracker> "Oh shit, it worked."
[20:24] <%TeslaTornado> Harris guides him down. "… Hot shit, I need me one a' them."
[20:25] <TesKin> He reaches over with his right arm, touching the stump.
[20:25] <TesKin> "…"
[20:25] <%TeslaTornado> "Yeah, that bit where I said y'all lost an arm… I lied a bit."
[20:26] <%TeslaTornado> "Only half." Harris looks up at Seymour. "Where'd y'all get that? From Weapons?"
[20:26] <TesKin> Branko sits up. "… Get me a gun."
[20:27] <%TeslaTornado> Harris shoots Branko a deadly kind of gaze. "Don't y'all touch either of them."
[20:27] <TesKin> Branko waves his stump at Harris. "I will not."
[20:27] <TesKin> He winces. "Anyone have pain killers?"
[20:28] <GraemeCracker> "About that…" Murray turns to Seymour, waving his heat ray. "You care any if I waste those robots downstairs?"
[20:28] <gumbal1> Seymour nods.
[20:29] <gumbal1> "I don't want to go back there. The robonazis will get suspicious."
[20:29] <GraemeCracker> "Can't be suspicious if they're burnt to a crisp."
01[20:30] <Daedalus|GMs> «Hello? Are any of you still alive?»
01[20:30] <Daedalus|GMs> Hermann asks over the intercom.

01[20:32] <Daedalus|GMs> «Oh, good. I see the automatons are back online.»
[20:32] <TesKin> «GOOD? GOOD?! YOU BASTARD I DON'T HAVE A LEFT ARM!»
01[20:32] <Daedalus|GMs> «At least you are not dead…»
[20:33] <TesKin> «Fuck you.»
[20:33] <TesKin> Branko grunts, attempting to stand.
[20:33] <%teslatornado> Harris continues pacing, walking in slow circles around the Lis Jar.
01[20:34] <Daedalus|GMs> «I'll get the automatons to retrieve some weapons for you…» He clears his throat, «Achtung Automa ! Das ist Herr Dr. Rothschild, Identifikationsnummer 144312A - ZZB . Nicht jede Person in der Basis nicht begreifen . Sie sind Mitglieder der SS und Waffen erfordern.»
[20:35] <%teslatornado> "… Gehsundheit."
01[20:36] <Daedalus|GMs> «Now, go back to the main chamber. I'm opeing the door.»
[20:37] <TesKin> Branko sways a little on his feet. "Let's go."
[20:37] <GraemeCracker> "Wait, they're listening to him?" Murray hums, before shaking his head. "Yeah, let's get your arm back on."
[20:38] <gumbal1> Seymour heads back to the main chamber.
[20:38] <%teslatornado> Harris nods, and takes hold of the uniforms of Lizardman and Frigid Bitch, dragging them to the main atrium as well.
01[20:37] <Daedalus|GMs> Back in the main chamber, there are severla automata waiting to give them weapons.
[20:38] <TesKin> Branko staggers in.
[20:38] <gumbal1> Seymour follows behind.
[20:38] <%teslatornado> Harris struggles in last, dragging the two… People-things.
[20:39] <GraemeCracker> Murray's in tow, carrying Branko's limb and his handy-dandy heat ray.
01[20:41] <Daedalus|GMs> The automata offer a melee weapon, a few grenades, and a few guns.
[20:42] <TesKin> Branko reaches for the biggest fucking gun he can get his hands… Hand on.
[20:42] <%teslatornado> Harris nervously eyes the guns, and selects… A pistol. Just a pistol.

[20:46] <TesKin> Upon realizing that he can't hold that bigass mothertrucker, Branko settles for anything that looks like like a shotgun.

[20:49] <%teslatornado> "… Awshit." He goes and retrieves Lis, as well.
[20:50] <GraemeCracker> Murray picks up a grenade, stuffing it into his pocket.

01[20:54] <Daedalus|GMs> «Alright… Here it goes…» He says, nervously. The large metal blast door hisses as it pressurizes, and it lowers into the ground. It reveals a large cylindrical chamber, the center of which is Die Glocke itself.
01[20:55] <Daedalus|GMs> Wires crisscross the roof and transformers crackle and spark. The machine rests on a raised platform.
[20:55] <gumbal1> "So, now what?"
[20:55] <TesKin> Branko walks forward slowly. "We go in."
[20:55] <%teslatornado> Harris advances, carrying Lis under one arm, and steadying the BIG MOTHERFUCKER with his free arm.
[20:56] <GraemeCracker> Murray follows, nervously looking for whatever it is that's alive and hanging around with this giant bell.
01[20:58] <Daedalus|GMs> «Alright, now, put Frau Tande in the machine…» He says, as a panel on the machine opens and a fog rolls out of it. You will notice there are also several of strange-looking vehicle stored here; a jeep/hovercraft hybrid.
[20:59] <%teslatornado> "Ohhh maaan, I need me one a' those thingers." Harris whispers to himself as he gently places Lis in the machine.
[20:59] <%teslatornado> He taps the glass once, right over her eye, then gives her a thumbs up and pats it affectionately.
[21:00] <GraemeCracker> "You might just, if this thing fucks off on us…"
[21:00] <@Nemi> The eye bobs.
01[21:01] <Daedalus|GMs> «Okay… now… I am now placing the lightning crystal in the intake chamber…»
01[21:02] <Daedalus|GMs> «Careful… and… wunderbar!» He chuckles, «Now, to activate it!» He pulls a lever, and the lights dim. the panel on the machine closes, «Perfect!»
[21:02] <%teslatornado> "Lightnin' crystal?" Harris wonders aloud, stepping back from Die Glocke.
[21:02] <gumbal1> "This…whole sort of thing doesn't happen too often in this line of work, does it?"
[21:03] <TesKin> Branko nods. "Our job is quite strange, da?"
[21:04] <%teslatornado> "Yep. I'm figgerin' that out."
[21:04] <GraemeCracker> "I'd…I'd say you'll get used to it, but I'd be lying."
[21:04] <gumbal1> "Yes, but I assumed most of it would have been boring 'go here and investigate this odd plant' stuff."
01[21:04] <Daedalus|GMs> «Now, we must ensure that the process is not interupp-» He's cut off suddenly, «Achtung! Eindringlinge in der Glockenbereich erkannt! Super-Soldat im Einsatz!»
[21:04] <GraemeCracker> "Oh, there's that too."
01[21:05] <Daedalus|GMs> An alarm sounds.
[21:05] <TesKin> "Dermo."
[21:05] <GraemeCracker> "And now there's this.
[21:05] <GraemeCracker> "
[21:05] <%teslatornado> "That sounded an awful lot like Super Soldier ta me." Harris turns and steadies the rocket launcher with both hands now.
[21:05] <gumbal1> "Is it too late to pick another job? Maybe as a botanist?"
01[21:05] <Daedalus|GMs> There's a loud thudding sound as the ground shakes. A great roaring is heard.
[21:06] <GraemeCracker> "…That was definitely super soldier."
[21:06] <TesKin> "I'm not going to be as accurate as normal."
[21:06] <%teslatornado> Harris looks to Murray. "Somethin' tells me talkin' ain't gonna work on this'un."
[21:06] <TesKin> He points his shotgun at the door.
[21:06] <GraemeCracker> "That's okay, it's…It's probably pretty big by the sound of that roaring."
01[21:06] <Daedalus|GMs> The blast door behind them is dented as something tries to pust through.
[21:06] <GraemeCracker> "…And that dent."
[21:07] <gumbal1> "Well, I've had a good life."
[21:07] <%teslatornado> Harris crouches and braces himself. "An' it ain't over yet, buddy."

[21:07] <gumbal1> "Before I die, I'd just want you all to know that-"
[21:08] <TesKin> "I'm not going to come this far and loose an arm just to die." Branko shakes his head. "Not like this."
01[21:08] <Daedalus|GMs> Another dent is created in the door.
[21:08] <GraemeCracker> "…Maybe he'll get tired?"
[21:08] <TesKin> "Harris, prime that launcher."
[21:08] <TesKin> "Murray, get ready with your grenade."
[21:08] <%teslatornado> Harris attempts to prime BIG MOTHERFUCKER.
[21:08] <GraemeCracker> Murray goes ahead and cranks his heat ray to sun-mode. "You don't have to tell me twice.
[21:08] <GraemeCracker> "
[21:09] <%teslatornado> "Thy kingdom come, thy will be done, on Earf as it is in Heav'n…"
[21:09] <TesKin> Branko hums the March of Memories. "Protect the bell. At all costs, keep that thing away from it."
[21:10] <%teslatornado> "Give us this day ah'r daily bread, an' f'rgive us ah'r tresp'ses…"
01[21:10] <Daedalus|GMs> «Alright… I am not going to lie. You are most likely going to die.» Hermann admits, «If it means anything… I… apologize.»
[21:10] <%teslatornado> "F'rgive us 't tres'ps us…"
[21:10] <gumbal1> Seymour is interrupted by the bang. He frowns. "As I said, I'd like to say th-"
[21:11] <%teslatornado> "F'r thine is the kingdom…"
[21:11] <%teslatornado> "Th' power 'n' th' glory… F'rever, 'n' f'rever…"
01[21:11] <Daedalus|GMs> There's one more bang, and the blast door is ripped through by a great big pair of hands.
[21:12] <TesKin> Branko looks at the hands. "On my mark Harris."
[21:12] <%teslatornado> "A-fuckin'-men."
02[21:12] * Optimal (moc.rr.ser.retsehcor.7BB78509-CRInys|nhoJ#moc.rr.ser.retsehcor.7BB78509-CRInys|nhoJ) Quit (Quit: Leaving)
[21:12] <GraemeCracker> "…Guten abend."
[21:13] <gumbal1> "Never mind!" Seymour readies his tank-flipper thing. If he's gonna go down, it'll be fighting.
01[21:13] <Daedalus|GMs> A great roaring is heard as a mecha-nazi bursts through the door
[21:13] <TesKin> "Svyatoye der'mo."
[21:13] <gumbal1> ~I know you don't want to kill me. Now would be a good time to prove it.~

[21:18] <Glacon> Daedalus|GMs: All your attacks are useless: 6 (4df+7=3+, 4-, 0, 4-)
[21:21] <GraemeCracker> Boy are they.
01[21:23] <Daedalus|GMs> Murray's electric grenade makes the Nazi-mech freeze in it's tracks as Branko's acid shotgun makes contact, melting a hole in the outer layer of armor. Seymour's hammer cracks the inner layer of armor, making a hole large enough for Harris's rocket to fly into. Assuming someone uses the Heat ray, the hole is melted over as the incindiary rocket explodes and burns the mech from the inside out. The creature dies, and is left a husk of metal.
[21:23] <GraemeCracker> Boy aren't they.
[21:23] <gumbal1> "…oh my god, I'm still alive."
[21:24] <%teslatornado> Harris opens his eyes. People who were observing may have realized that he was shooting with his eyes closed.
[21:24] <TesKin> "Svyatoye der'mo we lived. We chertov LIVED!"
[21:25] <TesKin> Branko throws his stump in the air. "Shit, we chertov did it."
[21:26] <GraemeCracker> Murray stares wide eyed at the fried corpse, laughing a little as he stands back up. "Well fuckin' eh, that went well."
[21:26] <%teslatornado> Harris nervously peeks over the MechaNazi to see if Lizard Dude and Frozen are still there.
[21:26] <gumbal1> "I…" A single tear falls from Seymour's eye.
[21:26] <GraemeCracker> He blinks, turning towards the bell and Lis. How's that coming along?
01[21:26] <Daedalus|GMs> "85% complete… 93%… 100%… Alright then, your sacrifice was not in vain." Hermann says, sure that you're all dead, "Presenting… Frau Tande."
01[21:26] <Daedalus|GMs> The panel opens, and fog drifts out.
[21:27] <TesKin> Branko looks at the bell eagerly.
[21:27] <GraemeCracker> "Y'know, I'm going to smack him one for not warning us about that though."
[21:27] <%teslatornado> Harris is too busy looking for the other two. He attempts to clamber through MechaNazi to get out to the main atrium.
[21:28] <TesKin> "Harris! We can worry about them later!"
[21:28] <%teslatornado> "Ah got shit to do!" Harris clambers back into the Glocke chamber regardless.
[21:28] <gumbal1> Seymour turns to the bell, dropping the HellHammer (TM).
[21:29] <@Nemi> Reconstructing a body with Nazi occult superscience based on the encoded neural patterns infused into a near-supernatural electrically sensitive and conductive material is something that is, by most standards, near unprecedented. That the consciousness belonged to someone who suffered so much and was rebuilt in so many ways..
[21:31] <@Nemi> .. One can say that it is more intent than direct derivation. The person revealed by the parting mist looks much like the Lis Branko and Murray may remember. Quite a bit taller, perhaps, and with a more robust build, but still with the ghastly pale skin and glossy black hair of old. And the face is identical. Subtle indentations and metal protrusions hint at some sort of artificial
[21:31] <@Nemi> internals.
[21:32] <%teslatornado> Harris blinks.
[21:32] <%teslatornado> "… Th' lord hath sent down an angel."
[21:32] <TesKin> Branko starts grinning. "Da. Welcome back Lis."
[21:32] <@Nemi> Her eyes flutter open. One, the right eye- that which was intact before- still glows blue, but the other is a fairly mundane brown. It quickly fills with blue, however, as they watch. She takes a few tentative steps and nearly collapses immediately, apparently unused to walking after so long.
[21:32] <@Nemi> ".. helvete, what took so long?"
02[21:32] * Sax (edis.ruoy|syawla#edis.ruoy|syawla) Quit (Ping timeout: 181 seconds)
[21:33] <GraemeCracker> "Oh my God it actually worked."
[21:33] <gumbal1> "We were attacked by robot nazis."
[21:33] <%teslatornado> Harris hustles over clumsily, still lugging BIG MOTHERFUCKER. "Ma'am? Ma'am?"
[21:33] <TesKin> Branko jogs over, putting his coat over her. "And ice creatures. And lizard men."
[21:33] <%teslatornado> He offers his free hand.
[21:34] <@Nemi> ".. heeey Brrranko. What happened to your arm?" She takes the offered hand, though she doesn't pull herself up just yet. Though Harris wouldn't know it, this is the first time she's been warm to the touch, despite her snowy complexion. "I wasn't.. entirely.. wooah I feel /weird/.."
01[21:35] <Daedalus|GMs> «Hehe… Hehehhehe… HEHEHEHAHAHHAHHAHAAA! YES, I HAVE DONE IT! ICH HABE ES GESCHAFFT! ICH BIN GOTT!» He shouts
[21:35] <%teslatornado> Harris stands there kind of awkwardly holding her hand, waiting for the indication to assist her in standing up. "Yup, y'all were blue Jello a few minutes ago."
[21:35] <TesKin> Branko shrugs. "Lost it getting you here."
[21:35] <%teslatornado> "Ayuh, sorry 'bout that, bud… I'll hafta talk to Miss Frigid Bitch once we get outta here."
[21:35] <@Nemi> ".. okay. I saw some of it but.. wow. Wow. Thank you. I'm.. I think I need a shower. And there's a lot of catching up to do."
[21:35] <GraemeCracker> Murray realizes he's still holding Branko's arm. "Uh…You think we can get it back on if we stick you in there, Branko?"
[21:36] <@Nemi> She tugs at Harris' hand.
[21:36] <TesKin> Branko stands, shaking his head. "I cant feel much of what's left Murray."
[21:36] <%teslatornado> Harris blinks a few times, absently, kind of staring at the hand in his hand before giving a tug and pulling Lis to her feet.
[21:36] <@Nemi> Amputations are usually a big deal, but apparently someone like Lis isn't bothered by seeing them. Of course, she literally exploded herself and a dozen men, so.
[21:36] <%Balthazaar> (And was held in 106's pocket dimension…)
[21:37] <@Nemi> She's fairly heavy despite still having a light build, hinting at the assimilation of internal mechanics carried over into her consciousness-pattern.
[21:37] <@Nemi> [ Yeah, that tends to .. dull responses to suffering ]
[21:37] <GraemeCracker> "Yeah, but Branko. We turned goo back into a human being with this."
[21:37] <GraemeCracker> "Think it might work for your arm."
[21:37] <TesKin> He shakes his head. "I do not want my limbs fixed with magic Murray."
[21:37] <TesKin> "It is not who I am."
[21:38] <@Nemi> ".. you know, before I went boom, Doctor Carlisle and I were working on mechanical limbs.."
[21:38] <GraemeCracker> "…You sure? You only get two in life."
[21:38] <TesKin> He walks over to Murray, clapping him on the shoulder "Do not worry friend."
[21:38] <%teslatornado> "No idea who that is, ma'am."
[21:38] <TesKin> He looks to Lis. "We will sort it out later, da?"
01[21:39] <Daedalus|GMs> «Ah… Frau Tande. Good as new… Alright, let's get you out of here. There should be a vehicle that resembles a Jeep nearby.»
[21:39] <GraemeCracker> "Uh…Well, alright. Your call." Murray sighs, tossing the limb to the floor by supersoldat.
[21:39] <@Nemi> She wobbles on her feet, still quite unsteady but.. Well, she's giving quite possibly the most grateful look she's ever shown to all those present. "Herr Doktor? Oh. Yes. I.. Think I need someone to lead me. Vision's still a little.. cloudy."
[21:39] <%teslatornado> "I gotcha." Harris puts a gentle hand on her shoulder.
[21:39] <gumbal1> Seymour nods, and heads back to the jeep. Once he's there, he falls asleep. It's been a long day for him.
[21:40] <@Nemi> ".. you're new." She looks up at Harris as if she only just now noticed him.
[21:40] <TesKin> "I can dri- oh."
[21:40] <TesKin> Branko looks at the stump. "Maybe someone else should?"
[21:41] <%teslatornado> "Only been here…" Harris checks his watch. "Five days. Name's Harris." He smiles and leads Lis back to the Jeep, then climbs into the driver's seat.
[21:41] <gumbal1> Seymour snores. Loudly.
01[21:41] <Daedalus|GMs> «There should be keys in the ignition. Simply start it and fly out. I will open the roof.» As he says that, a large section of the roof opens up, revealing a tunnel leading into the sky.
[21:41] <TesKin> Branko climbs in. "Hopefully there will be no more suprises today, da?"
[21:42] <%teslatornado> "Ohp. Shit, one sec." Harris climbs out and gets the two weapon-people, and restrains them in the back of the jeep.
[21:42] <%teslatornado> If they're there.
01[21:42] <Daedalus|GMs> They're there
[21:42] <@Nemi> ".. I have.. a lot to catch up on. Hi. Lisabet Tande. I think. Senior field agent. There's a couple people I think I need to do horrible things to once I.. get diagnostics done and .. figure out what the actual end results of the reconstruction .." She trails off into more technobabble, hugging Branko's still-far-too-large coat about herself like a tent.
[21:42] <GraemeCracker> Murray wanders towards the jeep, looking around for an intercom.
[21:42] <@Nemi> She flomps into the jeep gratefully.
[21:42] <@Nemi> ".. let's get us home."
01[21:44] <Daedalus|GMs> There is an intercom, Murray!
[21:44] <GraemeCracker> Murray walks over, punching the button. «Hello? This thing work?»
01[21:44] <Daedalus|GMs> «Oh! Herr Eichmann, you're still alive then?»
[21:45] <TesKin> «Fucking christ Hermann. You said nothing about giant robots!»
[21:45] <GraemeCracker> «Yeah! That went perfectly, surprisingly enough…Coulda gone with a warning though.»
[21:46] <GraemeCracker> «Branko says hello.»
[21:46] <%teslatornado> Harris fucks around loading the Dynamic Duo into the back of the Jeep, then keys up the Hoverwagen.
01[21:46] <Daedalus|GMs> «I did not know the security system would react that way.»
[21:46] <TesKin> Branko pats Harris on the shoulder. "You did good today."
01[21:47] <Daedalus|GMs> «Either way, get back here and we can celebrate.»
[21:47] <TesKin> «Da!»
[21:47] <%teslatornado> "… Ayup." Harris lets out a soft yawn. "Ah'm just ready to go home an' go get dinner. Y'know?"
[21:47] <GraemeCracker> «Eh…Well whatever, we're all alive.» He pauses, pushing the button again. «Listen, about all our stuff…Your friends gonna bring that home for us?»
[21:48] <%teslatornado> He waits for Murray et. al. to get back to the Hoverwagen and then floors it.
01[21:48] <Daedalus|GMs> «Yes, I have them waiting for you when you arrive home.»
[21:49] <GraemeCracker> «Alright, good…Good good. I'll see you then.» Murray leaves the intercom and clambers into the jeep.
[21:49] <%teslatornado> Harris hurtles through the ceiling as soon as Murray is seated and holy shit can he fucking drive.
[21:50] <@Nemi> ".. j'vel! This is awesome!"
01[21:50] <Daedalus|GMs> The hoverwagen goes superfucking fast, and soon you're enjoying the crisp fresh air and moonlight of the German skies.
[21:50] <%teslatornado> Harris giggles like a child as he drives. "Aw man, this is so fuckin' cool. I wish pa could see this thang."
[21:50] <TesKin> Branko sleeps. The big lug did lose an arm today.
[21:50] <gumbal1> Seymour sleeps through the trip.
[21:51] <@Nemi> Lis, even with reconstruction sickness and a fuzzy brain, is still thrilled. Talk about a nice wakeup.
[21:52] <GraemeCracker> Murray sits up, leaning over the side to look at the ground far below them. He's tired, but the view perks him up a bit.
01[21:55] <Daedalus|GMs> Through a series of misadventures involving running out of gas, landing in the forest, and a journey back to Montag Manor, out heroes finally found their way home. What's that? You want to hear that story? I'm afraid we'll have to save that tale for another time. Let's just say that Lis, Harris, Seymour, Branko, and Murray, for the time being, lived happily ever after.
01[21:55] <Daedalus|GMs> Fin.
