11:24 AM <Quinlan> Dex exists
11:24 AM <Fae> Evan reports.
11:24 AM <RosyBud> Sophia reports.
11:24 AM <Aphex_> Hans reports, dressed more formally that usual, shotgun slung over his shoulder.
11:25 AM <Jessica_T> Piper reports in!
11:26 AM <&Nemi> Cait shuffles in!
11:26 AM → Talonair joined (moc.duolccri.llewkcorb.26C1FC25-CRInys|570111diu#moc.duolccri.llewkcorb.26C1FC25-CRInys|570111diu)
11:26 AM <Fae> Evan waves to everyone.
11:27 AM <madness_> Waiting for you is a balding man with a rather sharp nose. "Psi-7, I presume?" He looks over the lot, confused.
11:27 AM <Aphex_> Hans nods back to Evan, halfway through lighting a cigarette.
11:27 AM <RosyBud> "Yes."
11:28 AM <Quinlan> "Aye."
11:28 AM <Jessica_T> "You called." Piper touches two fingers to the brim of her hat
11:28 AM <&Nemi> "Yessir!"
11:28 AM <Fae> "Yes."
11:28 AM <madness_> "Well.. okay, then. There's been a disappearance of a whole team of miners down in Sardinia, a small boat ride away from here. We want you to investigate what happened."
11:29 AM <Quinlan> "Any special orders, sir?"
11:29 AM <Fae> ~Mine investigation? Right down my alley.~
11:29 AM <RosyBud> "Got it."
11:30 AM <madness_> "And due to the nature of the coal mines, with all the possibly flammable gasses and such.. I'm going to have to ask you to leave your guns. We have two modified air rifles here, if you need them."
11:30 AM <Jessica_T> "…"
11:30 AM <Aphex_> "…"
11:30 AM <Quinlan> "…Wha' bou' knives, sir?"
11:30 AM <Fae> "Do we get gas masks?"
11:30 AM <&Nemi> Cait nods! "Alright! I'll be fine without guns!"
11:31 AM <Jessica_T> Piper sighs. "Note to self, develop non combustion weapons…"
11:31 AM <RosyBud> "Got it."
11:32 AM <madness_> ".. right. Gas masks will be provided by the foreman of the mine. Probably. And knives should be fine."
11:32 AM <Aphex_> Hans huffs. ~I need to get my hands on a set of knuckle dusters…~
11:32 AM <RosyBud> Soph nods.
11:32 AM <madness_> "Any other questions?"
11:32 AM <Quinlan> "Wha' should we
11:33 AM <Quinlan> 'spect ta find?"*
11:33 AM <Fae> "I'd assume that there's some evidence of anomalies if we're investigating?"
11:33 AM <Jessica_T> "Good thing I got the explosion proof kit for my flashlight…"
11:33 AM <RosyBud> "Probably?"
11:35 AM <madness_> "Evidently so. And we haven't got a single clue as to what's down there, but we know it should be dangerous. Anyways, there's a train waiting for you down in the depot to take you where you need to be headed."
11:35 AM <RosyBud> Sophia heads over there!
11:35 AM <Fae> As does Evan.
11:35 AM <Aphex_> As does Hans.
11:35 AM <Quinlan> Dex follows, putting his now-useless Walther in his room on the way
11:36 AM <Quinlan> As he emerges into the corridor, he jogs back to the briefing room to grab the rifles
11:36 AM <Quinlan> ~'T'd be bad t' ferget 'ose.~
11:37 AM <RosyBud> ~Be ready..~
11:37 AM <madness_> Everyone good for a time skip?
11:37 AM <Aphex_> Aye.
11:38 AM <Quinlan> Yep!
11:38 AM <RosyBud> Yea.
11:38 AM <Jessica_T> Piper snags an air rifle, and fits out for mining.
11:38 AM <Fae> Si.
11:38 AM <Fae> Evan gets his cave gear.
11:38 AM <&Nemi> "I am ready!"
11:40 AM <madness_> Well, the train takes you near the port city, where a car takes you to a boat, which takes you to another port in Sardinia, when another car comes to pick you up and send you off to the mines. Waiting for you is a concerned looking mine foreman with a hardhat and torch.
11:40 AM <RosyBud> Sophia waves.
11:40 AM <Quinlan> "Top o' th' marnin', sir."
11:41 AM <Jessica_T> "G'day. What seems to be the problem?"
11:41 AM <&Nemi> It's an exciting little trip. Cait stays in the back, quiet and peering curiously all around.
11:41 AM <Aphex_> "…" Hans stretches. ~Well, time to be completely in the dark…/again/.~ He sighs, extinguishing a cigarette with the heel of his shoe.
11:42 AM <madness_> "You are the team sent to find my men, correct?" He's antsy, by the looks of it.
11:42 AM <Fae> "We are."

11:43 AM <RosyBud> "Yep."
11:43 AM <Quinlan> "Indeed."
11:44 AM <madness_> "A day ago, my team didn't resurface when they were supposed to.. Just a single bottle came up from the mine elevator, nothing else. Then the screaming started."
11:44 AM <Quinlan> "A bo'le?"
11:44 AM <Aphex_> Knuckles cracking can be heard, maybe. Seems someone's getting a bit nervous, himself.
11:45 AM <Quinlan> "Tell us 'bout th' bo'le."
11:45 AM <RosyBud> ~Oh no..~
11:46 AM <&Nemi> "A bottle..?"
11:46 AM <madness_> "Yes, yes. It smells like some sort of beer but I don't allow them to take alcohol down into the mines.. They wouldn't bring down beer on their own accord."
11:47 AM <madness_> "It says something, but I can't read English too well. But can we please focus on my men?"
11:48 AM <RosyBud> "Could I see it?"
11:48 AM <Fae> "Can we see it? We believe it might have clues as to what happened to your men."
11:49 AM <madness_> "One moment.. And please, help yourself to any equipment you think you might need."
11:49 AM <Quinlan> "Also, we need ta tour th' place. Details're errythang, 'n errywhere 'as details."
11:49 AM <Jessica_T> "We'll get your people out, sir. But a map would definitely be helpful, if you have one."
11:50 AM <madness_> Said equipment includes those hardhats with a torch on top as well as some pickaxes for a melee. "Well, there have been a few shaft collapses before you came."
11:51 AM <&Nemi> Cait will get a hardhat and a mask if possible.
11:51 AM <Quinlan> Dex equips a hardhat, but leaves the pick, and takes a mask, as well
11:51 AM <madness_> No masks! :D
11:51 AM <Quinlan> He doesn't take a mask, then!
11:52 AM <Jessica_T> Piper's got her entrenching tool. "No gas detectors or anything?"
11:52 AM <RosyBud> Sophia gets a hardhat and mask.
11:52 AM <Aphex_> Hans takes… nothing. Bare hands work just fine… hopefully.
11:52 AM <Quinlan> Horrible safety you have there, Mr. Foreman.
11:53 AM <madness_> "No.. we have the more dangerous workmen. The only thing we have is our canaries." He points to a cage with a small bird in it. The bird tweets.
11:53 AM <Fae> Evan gets a hat and pickaxe. ~no masks?~
11:54 AM <madness_> "Here's the bottle."
11:54 AM <RosyBud> Sophia takes it.
11:54 AM <Jessica_T> "Ah." She sighs. "Sorry buddy… I'll try to get out quickly if you pass out…" She picks up the cage.
11:54 AM <Quinlan> Dex takes the canary from the guy
11:54 AM Talonair → Nope
11:55 AM <&Nemi> Darn! No mask! That's dangerous.
11:55 AM <Jessica_T> Piper already has it. Dex isnt' trusted with animals
11:55 AM <RosyBud> What does it say?
11:55 AM <Fae> Evan also tries to observe the bottle.
11:55 AM <Aphex_> Grumble grumble adjust tie crack knuckles… Hans is ready whenever.
11:55 AM <RosyBud> Nope Evan. Keep away.
11:56 AM Nope → Talonair
11:56 AM <Fae> Evan peeeers at the bottle.11:56 AM <madness_> The bottle is an apparent medicinal whiskey. A large black 'Run DEVIL Run' is the label. There's a faded red caricature of a slave running from wide eyed men with guns. Comically stylized, of course.
11:57 AM <Fae> ~…~
11:57 AM <RosyBud> "…wha?"
11:59 AM <Quinlan> Dex clutches his left side and keels over
11:59 AM <madness_> "I don't know! And, I'll be going down with you." He takes the canary from Piper. "I'll lead the way as best as I can. There's two exits, one of them including the entrance."
11:59 AM <RosyBud> "Got it."
11:59 AM <Jessica_T> Piper checks the pressure gauge on her air rifle, if there is one. Going to make her own one of these when she gets home.
11:59 AM <Quinlan> Hey, guys, Dex is dying a little bit
12:00 PM <madness_> Dex dead.
12:00 PM <Quinlan> Hey, guys, Dex is dead a little bit
12:00 PM <&Nemi> "Alright! Let's go!"
12:00 PM <madness_> "Uh.. Do you have any medical supplies?"
12:00 PM <&Nemi> "Oh, I do!"
12:01 PM <Jessica_T> "Cait, jump start him a bit, will ya?"
12:01 PM <madness_> "Okay, good. I have a medical tent if none of you do. Blood packs, bandages, the whole nine yards."
12:01 PM <&Nemi> Cait looks at Dex and .. kicks him a bit. "Get up, dingus."
12:01 PM <madness_> He points the way to the medical tent. With the BLOOD PACKS.
12:02 PM <Quinlan> He scrambles to his feet and dusts himself off
12:02 PM <Jessica_T> "He's probably just fakingl This guys' an asshole."
12:02 PM <&Nemi> ".. blooood."
12:02 PM <Fae> "…Those could be useful." He glances at Cait.
12:02 PM <RosyBud> Sophia tries to help Dex.
12:02 PM <madness_> "Please, take some. If we get separated and you find my men, they can prove useful."
12:03 PM <&Nemi> "Maybe!" Cait grabs some BLOODPACKS.
12:03 PM <Quinlan> All good here, Sophia
12:03 PM <madness_> Cait grabs TWO BLOODPACKS!
12:03 PM <RosyBud> Soph nods. And takes all the fucking supplies.
12:03 PM <Jessica_T> "…"
12:03 PM <RosyBud> As much as she cna.
12:03 PM <Jessica_T> Piper whispers an apology to the foreman
12:03 PM <RosyBud> *can.
12:03 PM <RosyBud> Possibly can.
12:03 PM <Aphex_> "…" Scowl. "…arre ve goingk or nhot…" He steps forward, heading into the mine.
12:03 PM <Jessica_T> "Let's move, people."
12:03 PM <madness_> Medical supplies are taken. And the foreman leads the way into the mine.
12:04 PM <madness_> The elevator creaks on the way down.
12:04 PM <madness_> And opens to a musky smell. It's dark, unless people turn on their torch helms.
12:05 PM <Quinlan> Dex does!
12:05 PM <Fae> Evan does.
12:05 PM <RosyBud> ~….oh no.~
12:06 PM <RosyBud> Sophia conserves battery like a boss. She has a flashight.
12:06 PM <RosyBud> *flashlight
12:06 PM <madness_> The foreman leads the way forward, canary tweeting happily.
12:06 PM <Jessica_T> Piper clicks on her GI light. M1 combat helmet beats hardhat.
12:06 PM <madness_> And as soon as they come to a three way fork in the road, everything starts shaking.
12:06 PM <Aphex_> "hhh…" Hans simply sighs and removes his tie, wrapping it around his right hand like boxing tape. ~Stay calm you idiot.~
12:07 PM <Jessica_T> Piper gets underneath the nearest shoring frame.
12:07 PM <RosyBud> "wha…"
12:07 PM <Quinlan> "…Er, izzat s'posed t' 'appen?"
12:07 PM <Fae> "Tremors?"
12:07 PM <madness_> There's a loud CRASH, and dust gathers behind you. ".. make that one exit, now."
12:07 PM <Fae> "…guess there's no turning back."
12:07 PM <Quinlan> "'Ow 'bout 'at?" Dex gestures
12:07 PM <RosyBud> "……."
12:08 PM <Quinlan> With a shrug, he turns back to the three tunnels
12:08 PM <Jessica_T> Piper looks at her entrenching tool, sighs, and pulls a bandana up and over her mouth. No black lung for Piper.
12:08 PM ⇐ @ProcyonLotor quit (nooccaR.snaeM.rotoL|noycorP#nooccaR.snaeM.rotoL|noycorP) Quit: brb
12:09 PM <madness_> "Two forks forward is the next exit. That's where I'll be. The mine should be quiet enough for you to hear the canary tweet.. Please, save my men."
12:09 PM <Fae> Evan covers his with a hankerchief.
12:09 PM <RosyBud> "We'll try."
12:09 PM <Fae> "Understood."
12:10 PM <Quinlan> "'At we will." With a sigh, he examines the fork
12:10 PM <madness_> He nods in thanks, then heads off to the exit.
12:10 PM <madness_> PERC, all.

12:11 PM <madness_> Evan, Sophia, you hear a bit of mumbling interlaced with some other sound you just quite can't make out coming from the eastern tunnel. The way the foreman went off in was the north. There's a silent tunnel to the west.

12:12 PM <Fae> Evan nods towards the eastern tunnel. "Yup. That way."
12:12 PM <RosyBud> Sophia follows.
12:12 PM <Fae> Evan goes.
12:12 PM <&Nemi> "Let's go then!" Cait bobbles along!
12:12 PM → Nioki joined (~moc.rr.ser.eniam.A28F3BDA-CRInys|alliztahc#moc.rr.ser.eniam.A28F3BDA-CRInys|alliztahc)
12:12 PM <Quinlan> Dex waits for Sophia and Piper to go, then pulls up the end
12:12 PM <RosyBud> "Hey Cait."
12:13 PM <Jessica_T> Piper's got the air rifle slung.
12:13 PM <Quinlan> Dex has the other if anyone wants it
12:13 PM <Aphex_> Hans loiters for a moment, then heads down the Western tunnel. He's stubborn… also deaf.
12:13 PM <&Nemi> "Hi!"
12:14 PM <madness_> On the way to the Eastern tunnel… There's an audible clicking ahead. A dim lamp hangs from above a crouching figure hunched over. Click, click, click.
12:14 PM <Quinlan> Dex notices, notifies Piper, and runs off to catch up with Hans
12:14 PM <RosyBud> "….."
12:14 PM <madness_> Hans, #tt if you're actually going west.
12:14 PM <RosyBud> Soph stops.
12:15 PM <madness_> The figure clicks and clicks and clicks. It looks human enough from this distance.
12:15 PM <madness_> Maybe it's one of the miners?
12:15 PM <RosyBud> "..Hello?"
12:15 PM <Fae> Evan tries to observe the figure.
12:15 PM <Jessica_T> "Oi!" Subtle as always, Piper.
12:16 PM <madness_> It snaps its head towards the source of the sounds. Give me a PERC to see it a bit better.

12:20 PM <&Nemi> Sorry, people talking at me.
12:22 PM <madness_> A hairless, malnutritioned, pale, deformed humanoid. Its eyes are glued shut by some form of crusty discharged. It's dressed in torn miner's clothes.
12:22 PM <madness_> And starts crawling on all fours to the group.
12:23 PM <Fae> "…It's a miner."
12:23 PM <RosyBud> "……"
12:23 PM <RosyBud> "Oh no..
12:23 PM <RosyBud> "Wha.."
12:23 PM <Fae> "Something mutated him."

12:24 PM <Fae> Evan backs up a bit.
12:24 PM <RosyBud> "Shh.."
12:24 PM <RosyBud> She whispers.
12:24 PM <RosyBud> "I think it responds to sound."
12:24 PM <Jessica_T> Piper levels the air rifle.
12:24 PM <Fae> ~Two creepy echolocators in two days?~
12:25 PM <Jessica_T> Gestures toward it and makes a questioning gesture

12:27 PM <madness_> The shot must've slowed the clicker down because you manage to dodge it.
12:27 PM <RosyBud> "Oh no.."
12:28 PM <Fae> Evan readies his pickaxe, just in case.
12:28 PM <&Nemi> Cait watches and studies the thing in clear fascination.
12:28 PM <RosyBud> Soph watches.
12:28 PM <RosyBud> Still backing away.
12:29 PM <Fae> Evan continues to try to stay out of the way.
12:29 PM <Jessica_T> Piper cycles the action and aims again, assuming Evan is staying clear.
12:29 PM <madness_> "Tweet, tweet!" Uh-oh… Evan is clear. But will the foreman be?
12:30 PM <&Nemi> Cait gestures to Piper, watching intently. She'd rather not demonstrate her thaumaturgy to someone not in the know, but this thing's already a horrifying monster, soo..

12:31 PM <madness_> The tack from the air rifle hits the creature on the neck and it screeches. Loud.
12:31 PM <RosyBud> "….."
12:31 PM <&Nemi> Cait watches, still with that grim sort of fascination.
12:32 PM <Fae> "…"
12:32 PM <madness_> Clicking starts coming from behind you.
12:32 PM <madness_> Lots of clicks.
12:33 PM <RosyBud> But..
12:33 PM <RosyBud> Sophia turns around.
12:33 PM <Fae> "…" Evan turns around and looks. No. Sudden. Movements.
12:33 PM <&Nemi> Cait similarly slooowly swivels to look.
12:33 PM <madness_> Darkness.
12:33 PM <madness_> Lights only shine so far, anyways.
12:33 PM <RosyBud> "……"
12:33 PM <Jessica_T> Piper sloooowly lets the rifle hang on its sling and puts her hand on the grip of her kukri
12:33 PM <&Nemi> .. Cait flicks on her torch.
12:34 PM <RosyBud> Sophia turns on her helmet.
12:34 PM <madness_> PERC.

12:35 PM <RosyBud> "..w-wha.."
12:35 PM <madness_> But there's more than twenty voices clicking.
12:35 PM <Fae> Evan's eyes get wide as he tries to count the clicks.
12:35 PM <RosyBud> Sophia starts backing up to where she came from.
12:36 PM <madness_> Or is it around twenty? The crawler keeps screeching.
12:36 PM <Fae> Evan signals to start heading back.
12:36 PM <&Nemi> Cait nods to Evan. She gestures to the others and very carefully, slowly starts walking. She's pretty casual about this.
12:37 PM <Fae> He whispers to Cait. "Any clue how to heal 'em?"
12:37 PM <RosyBud> 4df+4 sneeaaka
12:37 PM <Glacon> RosyBud: sneeaaka: 5 (4df+4=0, -, +, +)
12:37 PM <madness_> Click. Click. The screeching and the clicks subside as soon you find yourselves over at a room.
12:37 PM <madness_> Roll SNK.
12:37 PM <&Nemi> Cait gives it some thought. Would she recognize the mutations suffered by these people, perhaps?

12:38 PM <madness_> Cait wouldn't, unfortunately. Though, capturing a subject for future study might allow her to!
12:39 PM <RosyBud> "What happened to them?"
12:39 PM <RosyBud> "And.. where's Hans?"
12:39 PM <RosyBud> "And the other guy?"
12:39 PM <&Nemi> ".. no idea," Cait whispers as low as she can. ".. need a specimen, could maybe work on something.."
12:40 PM <madness_> Anyways, a miner trapped in a cage made of bloody bones, gear, and some rock notices you. Seems to be completely normal, too!
12:40 PM <Fae> "West tunnel. We should check on them."
12:40 PM <&Nemi> ".. miss Piper, if you still have that bot-" Cait /blinks/! She gestures that way, toward the trapped guy, and bobbles over!
12:40 PM <Jessica_T> Piper never had the bottle….
12:41 PM <Fae> "…Sophia, can I take another look at that bottle?"
12:41 PM <RosyBud> "..Okay?"
12:41 PM <RosyBud> Sophia takes it out and gives it the once over before handing it over.
12:41 PM <&Nemi> Cait is forgetful. ".. no I mean hold on to it, if it's a mutagen or something there might be traces left inside.."
12:41 PM <RosyBud> Sophia follows Cait.
12:41 PM <RosyBud> "Hello?"
12:41 PM <Fae> Evan looks over the bottle for strange substances. Science?
12:41 PM <&Nemi> .. Cait will take the bottle and put it in her BAG. YEAH. She approaches the minre!
12:41 PM <&Nemi> Or, nevermind, evan has it!
12:41 PM <&Nemi> That works!
12:42 PM <madness_> He makes a gesture towards some other clicker crawlers to the right. No eye viscus on those, though.
12:42 PM <RosyBud> "When.. you're done with it Evan.. give it back please?"
12:42 PM <RosyBud> "..oh no.
12:42 PM <madness_> Still deformed and hairless.
12:42 PM <Fae> Evan nods. Science to analyze the bottle?
12:43 PM <RosyBud> "..wha.."
12:43 PM <madness_> For all intents and purposes, and since he's not currently in a lab with testing materials, it's only a bottle of medicinal whiskey.
12:43 PM <Fae> How about anomaly analysis for strange things that stick out about it?
12:44 PM <&Nemi> Cait rubs her chin a moment. The other crawlers- they're conscious, hanging around, lurking, what're they doing?
12:44 PM <madness_> Idling, consciously. Observing another miner, actually.
12:44 PM <RosyBud> "Cait.. what is it?"
12:45 PM <Jessica_T> Piper slowly gets her Kukri out of its sheaht
12:45 PM <Fae> Evan stealthily hands the bottle back to Soap.
12:45 PM <RosyBud> Soph bags it.
12:47 PM <madness_> Psi-7 going to do anything?
12:47 PM <&Nemi> Cait's a bit puzzled. Are they idling as if still with some form of intellect, or just.. Lurking there? What's the other miner doing, another mutate or one like the unaffected prisoner?
12:48 PM <Jessica_T> Piper nods toward the prisoner's cage, and makes a door opening gesture
12:50 PM <madness_> Unaffected, it seems.
12:50 PM <&Nemi> Hmm. And the observers are … Just standing there? Doing anything with intent?
12:50 PM <madness_> If you're going to open the door, roll SNK. They're just staring for some reason.
12:51 PM <Fae> Evan looks to where they're staring.
12:52 PM <madness_> At the miner.
12:52 PM <Jessica_T> Piper's not the quietest one here…… She probably shouldn't do it. She pulls out her notepad and writes. One of us should let him out.
12:52 PM <RosyBud> 4df+4
12:52 PM <Glacon> RosyBud: 7 (4df+4=+, 0, +, +)
12:52 PM <RosyBud> Da door
12:52 PM <madness_> Well, the other one.
12:52 PM <RosyBud> Will be opened.
12:52 PM <RosyBud> Because Sophia is sneaky.
12:52 PM <madness_> The miner takes the pickaxe from Evan and hastily goes to stab one of the three onlookers in the back with it.
12:52 PM <madness_> As soon as he's released.
12:52 PM <Fae> "…"
12:53 PM <RosyBud> "….."
12:53 PM <Fae> "………………"
12:53 PM <&Nemi> Cait /boggles/, confused.
12:53 PM <RosyBud> "..w-wha.."
12:55 PM <Jessica_T> Piper readies her Kukri. This could go to shit FAST.
12:55 PM <Fae> Evan summons his knoife.
12:55 PM <madness_> Well, now the clickers are in a melee with him. "È stronzi!" You can leave him be, because no one but the other miner has noticed you yet.
12:55 PM <RosyBud> "………"
12:56 PM <Jessica_T> Ah fuck it. Piper's not going to let an innocent man die. She walks up behind the fight and aims a blow at the head of one of the clickers.
12:56 PM <Jessica_T> 4df+7 I dont' think you'll be needin' that head any more, mate.
12:56 PM <Glacon> Jessica_T: I dont' think you'll be needin' that head any more, mate.: 7 (4df+7=-, 0, 0, +)
12:56 PM <madness_> 4df+4
12:56 PM <Glacon> madness_: 4 (4df+4=-, 0, 0, +)
12:57 PM <RosyBud> "….."
12:57 PM <madness_> You bury your kukri into the clicker's side and it starts bellowing.
12:58 PM <&Nemi> Cait, meanwhile, will scurry over to open the other cage.
12:58 PM <madness_> 4df+3 And goes to scratch at you.
12:58 PM <Glacon> madness_: And goes to scratch at you.: 3 (4df+3=+, -, -, +)
12:58 PM <RosyBud> "….don't kill them!"
12:58 PM <madness_> The cage is opened! And the other miner pipes up from the tug of war it is currently having with a clicker. "No! Kill them!"
12:59 PM <Jessica_T> 4df+5 PDEF
12:59 PM <Glacon> Jessica_T: PDEF: 6 (4df+5=0, +, 0, 0)
12:59 PM <Jessica_T> I think not, mate. Piper's fatigues are tough stuff.
12:59 PM <RosyBud> "……."
1:00 PM <RosyBud> Sophia just stays where she is.
1:00 PM <Jessica_T> 4df+7 I said no getting ahead in the game mister clicker. Another blow to the neck.
1:00 PM <Glacon> Jessica_T: I said no getting ahead in the game mister clicker. Another blow to the neck.: 10 (4df+7=0, +, +, +)
1:00 PM <madness_> No more head for the clicker! Might want to help the miner, though. Seems to be losing right now.
1:00 PM <Jessica_T> Piper wades through the melee, going for the miner's opponent.
1:01 PM <Jessica_T> 4df+7 Fuck off ya bastard
1:01 PM <Glacon> Jessica_T: Fuck off ya bastard: 5 (4df+7=-, 0, -, 0)
1:01 PM <madness_> EY
1:01 PM <Fae> "…." As does Evan. No, wait… "Cait, can you still use Xuè mángmù here?"
1:01 PM <madness_> Not your turn.
1:01 PM <Jessica_T> Sowwy
1:01 PM <madness_> d3
1:01 PM <Glacon> madness_: 1 (d3=1)
1:02 PM <&Nemi> "Would rather not, could contaminate things..! - Why do you say kill them?"
1:02 PM → SpookyBee (was WorkerBee) joined
1:02 PM <RosyBud> ~Oh dear..~
1:02 PM <madness_> Well, the miner creates some distance between himself and the creature. "They are demons!"
1:03 PM <madness_> Noooow you can act, Piper.
1:04 PM <RosyBud> "..aren't they your friends?"
1:04 PM <&Nemi> "Demons- oh! Oh, how many of you are down here? Where did they come from?"
1:04 PM <Jessica_T> 4df+7 Headstrong attitudes are your weakness
1:04 PM <Glacon> Jessica_T: Headstrong attitudes are your weakness: 8 (4df+7=+, +, 0, -)
1:05 PM <Jessica_T> "About six, I think. And I got no fuckin' idea where they're from, but get the hell out while you can. Have your boss lock whatever door there is to this place and don't open it until we tell him to!"
1:05 PM <madness_> "Help first, questions later!" There's a loud clicking.
1:06 PM <RosyBud> "..oh god what is that?"
1:06 PM <&Nemi> Cait nods! She'll.. How many clickers are still standing and nearby?
1:06 PM <Jessica_T> (((Whoops, redact that first bit. She just tells hte miner to GTFO))
1:06 PM <madness_> And it stops almost as soon as it starts.
1:06 PM <madness_> 4df+4
1:06 PM <Glacon> madness_: 2 (4df+4=0, -, -, 0)
1:06 PM <madness_> No clickers left standing.
1:07 PM <Fae> Evan keeps an eye out for more of them, just in case.
1:07 PM <madness_> Cait, there's a liquid pooling out from the dead clickers.
1:07 PM <Jessica_T> Piper is left standing there, panting a bit, Kukri dripping with gore. She wipes it on the leg of her fatigues and re-sheathes it.
1:08 PM <RosyBud> Sophia inspects the liquid.
1:08 PM <madness_> But.. it's not blood. It's clear and quite gelatinous in nature.
1:08 PM <RosyBud> Is it blood?
1:08 PM <RosyBud> ~hmm… weird.‘
1:08 PM <&Nemi> Cait crouches down and samples the stuff with a SAMPLE KIT. She’ll analyse it later. ".. can you tell us about them?"
1:09 PM <Fae> "…we should probably check on Dex and Hans."
1:09 PM <RosyBud> "…what do you think it is?"
1:09 PM <madness_> "Them?" He huffs. ".. I don't know. They just came, and.. and.. forced us to drink from bottles and.. I didn't drink any, I swear!"
1:09 PM <RosyBud> "…the bottle.."
1:09 PM <Fae> "Who is 'they'?"
1:10 PM <Jessica_T> "Good on ya mate. Only drink from bottles that you know what's in." She goes to clap the guy on the back, looks at her hand, and decides better of it.
1:10 PM <RosyBud> Sophia check its and reads the description.
1:10 PM <&Nemi> Cait frowns and nods. ".. how many more of you are there?"
1:11 PM <madness_> He mouths some things.. ".. At least six."
1:12 PM <RosyBud> "We'll try to keep you alive?"
1:12 PM <RosyBud> "How hurt are you?"
1:12 PM <Jessica_T> Piper counts bodies
1:13 PM <madness_> Three bodies. Counting bones, it's indeterminate how many are dead.
1:13 PM <madness_> "I'm fine, I'm fine.. Is the foreman here?"
1:14 PM <RosyBud> "Yes."
1:14 PM <Fae> "He's waiting at the exit."
1:15 PM <&Nemi> ".. hopefully," Cait mutters. She looks around- any other apertures in the room? ".. do you remember what happened to the others? There's- you two, here so far, but.. Did you see anything else?"
1:15 PM <Jessica_T> "Oh, and there was a cave in at the main elevator shaft. He said there's a back way out.
1:16 PM <RosyBud> Sophia nods along.
1:16 PM <madness_> "Okay.. I know what you're talking about. There's a.. a big thing. I don't know what you call it in your language, but there aren't any words in mine to describe it."
1:16 PM <madness_> "I'm just.. going to take Gio and go. We'll be fine."
1:17 PM <Fae> "[Not even to tell us what it looks like?]" Evan knows Italian.
1:17 PM → &Wogglebug (promoted to admin, opped) joined
1:18 PM <RosyBud> "….where is it?"
1:18 PM <madness_> "[No. No words.] It could be anywhere." The miner takes his friend. ".. I just want to get out of here."
1:18 PM <Fae> Evan nods. "Alright. Go ahead."
1:19 PM <RosyBud> Sophia waits.
1:19 PM <Jessica_T> "We'll take care of things mate. No worries."
1:20 PM <Jessica_T> She turns to Sophia, Evan, and Cait. "What now?"
1:20 PM <madness_> He nods. "Good luck." And goes off. "The others? The others are dead. Or one of /them/."
1:20 PM <RosyBud> Sophia shrugs.
1:21 PM <Fae> "Alright. I suggest we try to head down the West tunnel and meet back up with Dex and Hans before we continue."
1:22 PM <RosyBud> "Got it."
1:23 PM <Jessica_T> "Sounds good to me." Piper pulls the Kukri out again and leads the way back along the tunnel.
1:23 PM <Fae> Evan follows.
1:24 PM → Lily and @ProcyonLotor (opped) joined
1:25 PM <Fae> tooltime?
1:25 PM <madness_> Hehe, nope!
1:25 PM <&Nemi> Cait's shuffling on with the others, of course
1:25 PM <madness_> You have to find them, of course.
1:25 PM <madness_> Which direction will you go?
1:25 PM <RosyBud> Perc den?
1:25 PM <RosyBud> Up.
1:26 PM <Fae> 4df+4 Navigation. Which way would be best to go?
1:26 PM <Glacon> Fae: Navigation. Which way would be best to go?: 5 (4df+4=0, 0, +, 0)
1:27 PM <madness_> Navigation saaays. Probably west.
1:28 PM <Jessica_T> Go West!
1:28 PM <RosyBud> Sophia heads b west.
1:28 PM <Jessica_T> Westward ho!
1:28 PM <RosyBud> *heads west.
1:28 PM <Fae> Going West!
1:30 PM <&Nemi> Cait shuffles onward!
1:30 PM <madness_> There's an empty room! And three super friggin dead Clickers!
1:30 PM <RosyBud> "……"
1:30 PM <Fae> "…looks like they've been through here."
1:30 PM <&Nemi> "Looks like it! Let's follow the jelly!"
1:31 PM <RosyBud> Soph follows along.
1:32 PM <madness_> Hans and Dex regroup, then?
1:32 PM <Aphex_> Hans retraces his steps… he's so lost.
1:32 PM <Jessica_T> Hans sees lights ahead!
1:33 PM <Quinlan> Dex leads Hans towards the light!
1:33 PM <RosyBud> "Hey!"
1:33 PM <Aphex_> ~I'm deaf you idiot, not blind.~ grumble grumble.
1:33 PM <Quinlan> He waves!
1:33 PM <madness_> Alright, this room has three exit points. The one where you came from, one leading north, one leading farther west.
1:34 PM <Fae> 4df+5 Nav?
1:34 PM <Glacon> Fae: Nav?: 7 (4df+5=-, +, +, +)
1:34 PM <madness_> .. What are you trying to find with Nav?
1:34 PM <Fae> +4, not +5, and he's trying to determine which way would get them out the fastest.
1:35 PM <madness_> Out? There's still a few miners left. Tweet tweet.
1:36 PM <Jessica_T> "Let's try north first."
1:36 PM <Fae> Or towards miner. (thought you said they was dead?)
1:36 PM <madness_> But the way out should be…
1:36 PM <madness_> North, then east, then north again.
1:37 PM <madness_> (the one's that drank from the bottles are)
1:37 PM <&Nemi> Cait waves to Hans and Dex! Hooray!
1:37 PM <Fae> "Alright. Think I can get us out, but there might be a few miners still alive."
1:37 PM <RosyBud> "..where?"
1:38 PM <Quinlan> "I think we go' th' ones back 'at way."
1:38 PM <Aphex_> Hans nods, bleeding from a few cuts on his collar, as well as from his knuckles, which are in far worse shape. Has he seriously been beating these things to death with his fists?
1:38 PM <madness_> North leads to yet ANOTHER fork in the road. This place is a labyrinth. You can go back south, north, or east.
1:38 PM <RosyBud> 4df+6 medical on hans, stat.
1:38 PM <Glacon> RosyBud: medical on hans, stat.: 8 (4df+6=+, +, +, -)
1:38 PM <Jessica_T> "I vote we dont' leave until everyone's rescued.
1:39 PM <Jessica_T> "Also, did anyone get a fucking map?
1:39 PM <madness_> Hans, you get one PHEALTH back for a total of SIX!
1:39 PM <Fae> "Yeah, I got the map. Let's check north for more miners."
1:39 PM <Aphex_> He nods to Soph in thanks.
1:40 PM <RosyBud> "No problem."
1:40 PM <Fae> Evan begins heading north.
1:40 PM <madness_> Struggles are heard from the room ahead.
1:41 PM <Jessica_T> "Hey, Hans." She taps his shoulder, offering him her entrenching tool. "Save your hands, mate."
1:41 PM <Aphex_> He turns it down. Persistent idiot, isn't he?
1:42 PM <madness_> There's a fray in the coal storage room ahead of all of you. Looks like one miner taking on three clickers.
1:42 PM <RosyBud> Sophia watches.
1:43 PM <Aphex_> Hans, on the other hand, rushes in.
1:43 PM <Fae> Evan signals to Piper with the air rifle.
1:43 PM <madness_> He's losing badly, apparently. That is, unless Hans has something to say.
1:43 PM <Jessica_T> Piper can't shoot into a Melee, sadly. Evan has the air rifle thrust into his hands and Piper goes in as well!
1:44 PM <Aphex_> 4df+10 (MLE+S2) He sure does.
1:44 PM <Glacon> Aphex_: (MLE+S2) He sure does.: 13 (4df+10=0, +, +, +)
1:44 PM <Jessica_T> 4df+7 You got blood on my knoife, mate. You best keep lying down.
1:44 PM <Glacon> Jessica_T: You got blood on my knoife, mate. You best keep lying down.: 4 (4df+7=-, -, -, 0)
1:44 PM <&Nemi> Cait nods in approval, impressed.

1:44 PM <Glacon> madness_: 2 (4df+4=-, 0, 0, -)
1:44 PM <madness_> Well, Hans.
1:46 PM <madness_> Quite the outstanding display of martial arts. The sounds of necks snapping and bones crunching underneath boots rings underneath the deaf veteran's destructive wake.
1:46 PM <RosyBud> ~……..~
1:46 PM <madness_> Piper, you accidentally thrust into a wall when Hans grapples the one you're about to stab at.

1:50 PM <madness_> ".. Merda santo."
1:50 PM <Aphex_> He finishes bashing the last one's skull into the floor, then stands hesitantly, as if embarrassed. "…eh…shise…"

1:51 PM <Jessica_T> "C'mon, let's get you guys out of- Oh. Already ahead of me. IS THAT ALL OF YOU GUYS?"
1:51 PM <Fae> "Is that everyone?"
1:51 PM <Aphex_> "…" ~Damn it! I let loose again… shit.~
1:52 PM <RosyBud> "I think."
1:52 PM <madness_> "Dove sono David e Marco ?" Can be heard from down the halls.
1:53 PM <RosyBud> ~Dunno what they are saying..~
1:54 PM <Quinlan> Dex hustles people along. The longer they're down here, the more dangerous it gets
1:54 PM <madness_> Tweet tweet. Canary is okay, so. Anyone that could speak Italian would realize two more may be alive.
1:54 PM <Jessica_T> Piper speaks Italian, even if horribly! "Let's keep going."
1:54 PM <RosyBud> "Okay.."
1:54 PM <Fae> Evan tries to discern where the other two might be.
1:55 PM <madness_> Alright! You can head east or west or back down south from this room.

1:58 PM <Fae> "Further west, maybe?"
1:58 PM <Jessica_T> Follow the clicking!
1:58 PM <RosyBud> Yep!
1:58 PM <&Nemi> That makes sense! CAit follows!
1:59 PM <Fae> As does Evan.
1:59 PM <Aphex_> Hans follows wherever, cleaning the blood from his knuckles every so often.
1:59 PM <madness_> There's a fork in the road, giving you the option of continuing west or going south, if you head that way. And the clicking comes from further west.
2:00 PM <RosyBud> Further west?
2:02 PM <Jessica_T> WEST
2:02 PM <madness_> TO THE WEST, then!
2:02 PM <madness_> You come across a room..
2:02 PM <Fae> Evan heads west,
2:02 PM <madness_> No miners in sight, but…
2:04 PM <madness_> There's a seven foot figure with an imposing glare. They’re wrapped in barbed wire and looks like a crawler on steroids. A strand of barbed wire sits in either of his hands, and he clicks loudly.

2:15 PM <madness_> Evan, you could try to somehow collapse this part of the mine. But who knows what else might happen when you do that?
2:15 PM <&Nemi> Iiiinteresting. Close enough that Cait could reach out and perhaps cause its innards to rupture themselves, or just totally alien?
2:17 PM <madness_> Everything about Barby is.. restructured. The only thing that remains vaguely human is its body shape. The inner workings of Barby's innards feel like mush. Almost like oatmeal. Heavy and thick energies that spells something a little too heavy to shift around, unlike a normal human's.

3:27 PM <RosyBud> Sophia.. goes near it.
3:27 PM <RosyBud> ~Huh..~
3:28 PM <madness_> The clear liquid begins oozing slowly. Congealing as it flows.
3:28 PM <Fae> "…Can I hit it with the axe?" He hefts the pickaxe.
3:28 PM <Aphex_> Hans backs off.
3:29 PM <Fae> He looks around to his team mates.
3:29 PM <Jessica_T> Piper shrugs. "I don't fuckin' know. Honestly I think it's too dangerous to bring in alive, but I don't have the best record."
3:29 PM <RosyBud> "Do.. we just like.."
3:29 PM <RosyBud> "I dunno."
3:29 PM <RosyBud> Sophia watches it as she just looks it in eyes.
3:29 PM <madness_> PERC, Sophia.

3:31 PM <madness_> You don't see anything, Sophia. And it's still bleeding out, painfully. The pool of clear blood starts congealing inside of Iris Stalks, swelling at the source of the wound. Spinal cord? Yep.
3:31 PM <RosyBud> "….huh."

3:33 PM <RosyBud> Well, doesn't matter now. Its dead.
3:34 PM <madness_> The eyes go limp and fall. Everyone hears cursing in Italian and bottles clattering over eastward.
3:34 PM <madness_> Except hans.
3:34 PM <madness_> Hans doesn't hear anything.
3:34 PM <Fae> Evan looks in the direction of the cursing.
3:35 PM <madness_> East.
3:35 PM <RosyBud> Sophia goes that way.
3:35 PM <Jessica_T> Piper heads east, still dripping with gore and carrying a large knoife. "Let's go break up this party."
3:35 PM <&Nemi> Cait sighs and .. digs in her sample kit. She'll try to recover what material of the dead thingy she can.
3:35 PM <Fae> Evan follows.
3:35 PM <Aphex_> Hans stays with Cait, lagging behind a little. ~I guess something's going on? It'd help if I got told things… bastards.~
3:36 PM <Fae> Evan taps Hans on the shoulder.
3:37 PM <RosyBud> Sophia follows.
3:37 PM <Fae> He digs out his notepad and writes. "Swearing coming from this direction."
3:37 PM <RosyBud> Well Hans, not everyone knows ASL.
3:37 PM <RosyBud> And that you can kinda read lips.
3:37 PM <Aphex_> He nodnods, then follows. Also, reading lips doesn't work like that.
3:38 PM <madness_> The next room has a hooded figure hunched over a miner on some sort of table. The miner's drugged out as fuck and two others watch in horror.
3:38 PM <RosyBud> "….."
3:38 PM <Fae> Evan watches the hooded figure.
3:39 PM <&Nemi> Cait will shuffle on after the others once she's got the weird thing recovered properly.
3:40 PM <madness_> He starts performing a ritual, forcing the drugged miner to take a sip out of a whole different bottle. A lump starts growing on the miner's stomach as he drinks.
3:40 PM <Fae> "…"
3:40 PM <RosyBud> "Wha.."
3:41 PM <RosyBud> 4df+1 rock at the hooded one.

3:42 PM <Fae> ~Well we'd have his attention anyway.~
3:42 PM <Aphex_> 4df+5 Hans takes that as a cue to start the fight.

3:45 PM <RosyBud> (just pause it)
3:45 PM <madness_> He is shot in the thigh. And he peers over at Piper.
3:46 PM <RosyBud> Sophia goes over to the lumpy miner.
3:46 PM <RosyBud> To help.

3:48 PM <RosyBud> "…?"
3:48 PM <RosyBud> "What.."
3:48 PM <madness_> NO WEAK POINTS FOR THE THRESHER. That's carved on his left collar bone as he throws his robe to the side.
3:48 PM <RosyBud> ~What the actual hell?~
3:48 PM <Fae> "………….." ~My normal approach is useless.~
3:48 PM <madness_> PC turn, by the way. The drugged miner stares at you lazily, Sophia.
3:49 PM <RosyBud> She stares back, confused.
3:49 PM <Jessica_T> 4df+7 Bullwhip takes out your legs.

3:49 PM <Jessica_T> Piper YANKS
3:49 PM <Fae> Evan goes over to unlock the miner's cage.
3:50 PM <madness_> He's on the ground. Hans should totally beat him up.
3:50 PM <Aphex_> 4df+5 good idea!
3:50 PM <Glacon> Aphex_: good idea!: 4 (4df+5=+, -, 0, -)
3:50 PM <madness_> 4df+5 no
3:50 PM <Glacon> madness_: no: 8 (4df+5=+, 0, +, +)
3:51 PM <&Nemi> Cait circles, looking to see what she can feel from the Mystery Guy. What can she /feel/.
3:51 PM <Fae> Do he succeed in opening the door?
3:52 PM <madness_> He swats all of your hands, then cuts the bullwhip with a bony finger. Cait can feel.. some sort of darkness? She can also feel a fresh human liver somewhere in his stomach region. Probably had that for lunch. Evan opens the door and the miners run the fuck away.
3:52 PM <RosyBud> Sophia just helps the miner with the lump out in any way possible.
3:52 PM <&Nemi> ".. cannibalistic. .. human eating, perhaps. .. fresh. … dark, hn.. What /are/ you, I wonder.."
3:53 PM <Jessica_T> "Sonovva…. " Piper growls. She LIKED that whip.
3:53 PM <&Nemi> What can she feel with Lumpyguts?
3:53 PM <madness_> Well, there's definitely something human inside of Lumpyguts. Somewhat human, at least.

3:56 PM <madness_> You check his arm with a swift flick of your forearm.
3:56 PM <madness_> Lumpyguts starts drinking the bottle on his own accord, now.
3:56 PM <RosyBud> Sophia takes it away!
3:56 PM <RosyBud> "Stop!"
3:56 PM AdvancedBeefare → SpookyBee

3:57 PM <Glacon> Aphex_: (STR) Taking the bottle.: 5 (4df+4=+, +, -, 0)
4:01 PM <madness_> The Thresher breaks away from Hans, pushing everyone aside from the table. He splits open the miner's stomach with his hand in a swift, but almost surgical manner, gently lifting out a boy around the age of six. Lumpyguts begins convulsing and rolls off the table towards someplace. The Thresher holds the kid close, before turning into dust and scattering.
4:01 PM <madness_> And now the boy is left alone with Psi-7, eyes shut tight and shivering.
4:01 PM <madness_> Unpause.

4:02 PM <Aphex_> "…" Hans attempts to move in and take the kid.
4:03 PM <madness_> Okay, who's going to actually pick up the kid?
4:03 PM <RosyBud> Sophia.
4:03 PM <Jessica_T> Piper quickly heads for the miner. Can we do anything for him?
4:03 PM <madness_> Alright. Roll me a PDEF.
4:03 PM <madness_> The miner has.. disappeared?

4:05 PM <Jessica_T> Piper levels the air rifle at the strange kid
4:05 PM <madness_> He bites into your shoulder, hard. His eyelids suddenly part to reveal a fleshy patch, covered in multiple, spread out, peepers.
4:05 PM <madness_> -1 PHEALTH, Sophia.
4:05 PM <RosyBud> Sophia yells out in pain.
4:06 PM <Aphex_> Can Hans move to grab the kid?

4:06 PM <madness_> Piper, you aimed a little too high on that.
4:06 PM <Jessica_T> ~Ah shit~
4:07 PM <Fae> "…" Evan grabs the bottle and smashes the bottom of it against the table. It's stabby time.
4:07 PM <madness_> The kid gets one right between the eyes.
4:07 PM <Jessica_T> …
4:07 PM <Jessica_T> I object
4:07 PM <Jessica_T> My accuracy is not THAT bad
4:07 PM <Jessica_T> And at this range that's physically impossible
4:08 PM <Jessica_T> ((I CALL SHENANIGANS DAMNIT))
4:08 PM <madness_> Object as you may, air rifles beg to differ. As does the teammate holding the 'kid'.
4:08 PM <Jessica_T> ((YOu don't know how air rifles work. They're not low velocity))
4:09 PM <madness_> Who, right now.. is turning into something a biiiiiit more dangerous.
4:09 PM <RosyBud> Wait, Sophia or the kid?
4:09 PM <madness_> The kid.
4:10 PM <madness_> paws.
4:16 PM <madness_> Alright. Well, rewind aaaaaall the way back to Piper aiming.
4:16 PM <madness_> The kid's still biting down on Sophia's shoulder.
4:16 PM <madness_> Hard.
4:16 PM <Jessica_T> "Oi!"
4:16 PM <Fae> (*vwoooop*)
4:16 PM <madness_> and unpaws.

4:17 PM <RosyBud> And taken off Soap?
4:18 PM <madness_> Yep! A tooth snags in her arm, though.
4:18 PM <Fae> Even if he can't fix it, Evan tries to help bandage her wounds.
4:18 PM <Jessica_T> Piper retrieves the sad, sad remains of the bullwhip and hogties said kid
4:18 PM <Fae> And remove the tooth, if it's embedded.
4:18 PM <madness_> The kid cries.
4:18 PM <RosyBud> She curls into a ball, in pain.
4:18 PM <madness_> And pause again.
4:19 PM <&Nemi> Cait is just staring in abject bafflement. CAn she feel the once-pregnant kid?
4:19 PM <&Nemi> Errr. Man.
4:19 PM <&Nemi> Wow.
4:19 PM <&Nemi> WOW.
4:20 PM <Fae> (wow)
4:26 PM <madness_> Lumpyguts makes another appearance. This time, looking much more pale than before. He goes down on his knees, then flops over onto his stomach. The tear on his stomach starts lining up and to his chest, tearing open. The crunch of a few ribs will somehow widen the cut, before a monstrous, six-armed, pale, behemoth of a woman climbs out. She wails. Her eyes
4:26 PM <madness_> part, revealing mouths. And the wails slowly deteriorate into furious screaming, with the mouth-eyes drooling something that smells like death. And the kid starts crying even louder.
4:26 PM <madness_> Unpause.
4:26 PM <&Nemi> Cue Cait … backing up a step and more or less going "What the /fuck/."
4:27 PM <RosyBud> Sophia gets up, holding her shoulder in pain.

5:33 PM <Fae> "…wait, where's the kid?"
5:34 PM <&Nemi> "I don't know- keep your eyes open- need to get her away from Hans..!"
5:35 PM <madness_> Cait, you send Big Momma reeling back, head thrown back like she was just shot in the face by a .45.
5:35 PM <madness_> PAUSE TIIIIME
5:38 PM <madness_> Mother keeps looking up. And her jaw drops to her feet. From the sides of it, crawling sounds can be heard… And a few seconds after that, a hardhat with a light on top crawls out. The hardhat falls off, as a miner's head grafted onto two hands by the wrists pop out of Momma's mouth. More like him follow. Much, much more. Their faces are frozen in a scream,
5:38 PM <madness_> but their eyes focus on all of you.
5:38 PM <madness_> UNPAUSE, PC TIME TO ACT.
5:39 PM <&Nemi> "What even IS this?" Cait brings her hands up and .. Attempts to bombard Big Momma and all the head-spider-things with a bombardment of bloodbolts.

5:43 PM <madness_> None do
5:43 PM <madness_> The Momma in the meanwhile, picks up the child and turns to get the hell out of dodge while you're busy.
5:43 PM <RosyBud> SSophia tries to get away.
5:43 PM <RosyBud> "She's getting away!"

5:46 PM <madness_> The mines begin shaking again.
5:46 PM <madness_> MIiiiight want to regroup with Mr. Foreman.
5:46 PM <Fae> "And that's our cue to get to the elevator. Run!"
5:46 PM <RosyBud> Sophia runs.
5:46 PM <Jessica_T> Piper levers her kukri out of Momma's neck and legs it
5:46 PM <Fae> He takes his own advice.
5:47 PM <Aphex_> Hans runs as best he can, limping every so often.
5:48 PM <&Nemi> Cait frowns and will take as many hurried samples as she can before spritning on after the others!
5:48 PM <madness_> Hah. Just fucking with you, no collapse actually happens. Just a little tremor in the unstable mines. But ANYWAAAAYS. You manage to regroup with the foreman and the rest of the miners.
5:49 PM <Fae> "Alright, everyone here?"
5:50 PM <madness_> Yep!
5:50 PM <RosyBud> "Yes."
5:50 PM <Jessica_T> Piper's here, but she's a hell of a sight.

5:50 PM <madness_> Guys, PERC as you walk to the mine ELEVATOR
5:50 PM <Fae> "Alright, let's just get out. I don't want to stick around and find out what else is down here."

5:53 PM <RosyBud> A random hallucination? For no reason?
5:53 PM <madness_> You don't think much of it. After all, as soon as you blinked.. Everything was fine again, right?
5:53 PM <Fae> ~…I know halucinations. Was that one?~ "So, nothing much happened here?"
5:53 PM <madness_> "No.. We fought a few of those.. /things/."
5:54 PM <Fae> ~I'm not sure that was one.~ Does he see any clicker corpses about?
5:54 PM <&Nemi> Cait considers a moment. She'll.. Try and sniff out, feel out the FOreman, just to see.

5:55 PM <madness_> Oh, Evan.. That wasn't a hallucination, was it?
5:55 PM <RosyBud> What about his breath?
5:56 PM <Fae> ~…~ Evan pulls Cait aside. "Did you see it too?"
5:56 PM <madness_> Nothing major! Anyways, you're going up the elevator now.
5:56 PM <RosyBud> Sophia rubs her head.
5:56 PM <&Nemi> "See what? I had a brief hallucination.." Cait murmurs right back.
5:56 PM <RosyBud> She looks really confused.
5:56 PM <&Nemi> ".. he feels right. Human, I mean. Why?"
5:56 PM <Fae> "…wasn't a hallucination. I know hallucinations."
5:56 PM <RosyBud> ~What was that? Ugh, my head hurts.~
5:57 PM <RosyBud> She stares at the Foreman.
5:57 PM <madness_> One last PERC check before you hit the road. The Foreman smiles back. "Thank you for bringing me my men back."
5:57 PM <&Nemi> Cait .. Frowns. She swivels toward the Foreman and flexes her right hand, idly. It bleeds a little, dripping, unlike the drying blood all over her.

1:08 PM <madness_> You can hear a faint tweet tweet of the canary. Gas isn't too bad, apparently.
1:10 PM <madness_> Anyways, there's a turn north because of another collapse that must've happened some time ago.
1:10 PM <madness_> But!
1:11 PM <madness_> PERC.
1:11 PM <madness_> Hans, only.
1:11 PM <Aphex_> 4df+4 well shit
1:11 PM <Glacon> Aphex_: well shit: 5 (4df+4=0, -, +, +)
1:12 PM <madness_> Leading the way, you see a crawler right around the bend. Staring straight at you.
1:12 PM <madness_> Its eyes are open.
1:12 PM <madness_> Well, eyelids.
1:13 PM <Aphex_> 4df+4 (INTM) [MENACING]
1:13 PM <Glacon> Aphex_: (INTM) [MENACING]: 3 (4df+4=+, 0, -, -)
1:14 PM <madness_> Not as intimidating as what lays behind the eyelids, I'm afriad.
1:14 PM <Aphex_> damn.
1:14 PM <madness_> A patch of white flesh covered in little dots replace the spot where eyeballs lay.
1:14 PM <madness_> The dots blink in unison.
1:16 PM <Aphex_> He stops as quickly as possible, opposite the crawler.
1:17 PM <madness_> 4df+4 It's even thinner than the last one, but twice as fast.
1:17 PM <Glacon> madness_: It's even thinner than the last one, but twice as fast.: 6 (4df+4=-, +, +, +)
1:17 PM <madness_> AGI/PDEF, Hans.
1:17 PM <Aphex_> 4df+5 (PDEF) That /is/ fast.
1:17 PM <Glacon> Aphex_: (PDEF) That /is/ fast.: 3 (4df+5=0, -, -, 0)
1:18 PM <madness_> Ouch!
1:19 PM <madness_> The clicker digs right into your right arm with its nails.
1:19 PM <madness_> PC turn
1:20 PM <Aphex_> 4df+10 (MLE+S2) Yeah- no, that hurts, get off.
1:20 PM <Glacon> Aphex_: (MLE+S2) Yeah- no, that hurts, get off.: 11 (4df+10=+, 0, -, +)
1:20 PM <madness_> 4df+5 ouchie
1:20 PM <Glacon> madness_: ouchie: 5 (4df+5=0, -, 0, +)
1:20 PM <madness_> Well
1:21 PM <madness_> You chokeslam Wide Eyes so hard, that he dies.
1:22 PM <madness_> Continuing forward?
1:22 PM <Aphex_> "Fh… Kheep mofingk."
1:23 PM <Aphex_> Eeyup/
1:24 PM <madness_> Alright, well there's a fork in the tunnels again. One leads back east, another one leads further north. Which will you take?
1:24 PM → Lily and @ProcyonLotor (opped) joined
1:24 PM <Aphex_> East to regroup, unless Dex or the miners object.
1:24 PM <madness_> The miners don't!
1:24 PM <Quinlan> None here!
1:25 PM → &Wogglebug (promoted to admin, opped) joined
1:25 PM <madness_> Well, instead of leading you back to the group, you're at another fork. You can continue along east or head north again.
1:26 PM <Quinlan> "East, I think."
1:26 PM <Aphex_> "Hhhmm…" He can't hear you Dex.
1:26 PM <madness_> Err, my bad. It's west. But you can still go back east and retrace your steps.
1:27 PM <Aphex_> He keeps going East, as that's where everyone else went.
1:28 PM <Quinlan> Dex follows
1:28 PM <madness_> Well you're back at the north and west fork again. You can go down south by Wide Eyes' body, then retrace all the way from there.
1:30 PM <Quinlan> That's the way to everyone else, right?
1:30 PM <Aphex_> "…" Hans is officially lost.
1:30 PM <madness_> Indeed, that is where you can regroup.
1:30 PM <Aphex_> "Hm…." Let's retrace.
1:30 PM <madness_> If you decide to, head over back on to Hi
