Umbrafer (8:37:13 PM): Arr.
MilesMk1 (8:37:17 PM): I assume Seiler is just having temporary difficulties?
Umbrafer (8:37:18 PM): How's life?
MilesMk1 (8:37:25 PM): Life is pretty good.
MilesMk1 (8:37:33 PM): How's everyone?
Dragcrell (8:37:33 PM): Life whats that?
MilesMk1 (8:37:50 PM): What you get when you subtract FFXI
MilesMk1 (8:38:12 PM): You know. The rest of it. ;)

Thematrian1 (8:38:27 PM): thanks
Dragcrell (8:38:35 PM): lol na thats a side deal then all I would do would be sleep, eat, and work then play SR on tusdays >_>
Thematrian1 (8:39:48 PM): (just upgraded AIM, in the hopes that it'll nix the odd connection problems)
Dragcrell (8:39:56 PM): lol
MilesMk1 (8:40:15 PM): (Let's hope.)
Thematrian1 (8:41:11 PM): anyhow, when we left, Alex was chasing down a guy in a truck (had she opened fire?), and Trickster + Blake were about to have a meaningful dialogue with the bloody ghost of Home Despot
Thematrian1 (8:41:28 PM): Rock was off doing Rock things
MilesMk1 (8:41:47 PM): Last thing I remember was Bloody Ghost clearing his throat to speak.
Thematrian1 (8:41:56 PM): yep
Thematrian1 (8:41:58 PM): so
Umbrafer (8:42:04 PM): (Incidentally, we're getting another player in the Thursday game)
MilesMk1 (8:42:07 PM): And Alex, IIRC, was contemplating ways of not damaging the truck too badly.
Umbrafer (8:42:10 PM): (And some zombies)
Thematrian1 (8:42:22 PM): (Gustave again?)
MilesMk1 (8:42:26 PM): (Oh? Who is it? That Shadowdragon guy?)
Thematrian1 (8:42:34 PM): "I'm here to do a rescue. Why are you here?"
Umbrafer (8:42:37 PM): (Nope, different guy)
Umbrafer (8:42:42 PM): (Another Houngan, though)
Umbrafer (8:42:49 PM): (He's from my Saturday group)
Dragcrell (8:43:17 PM): (awwww no one ever joins this group ; ;)
Umbrafer (8:43:38 PM): (He had the option, but I urged him towards Thursday since it's smaller)
Dragcrell (8:43:39 PM): ( *sigh* we no fun I gues)
Dragcrell (8:44:21 PM): (Smaller ^_- of late theres been only 3 ppl playing in this one lol >_> )
Thematrian1 (8:44:23 PM): (They/we really do need the extra body. When we have Rock we have a full gang of four)
Thematrian1 (8:44:25 PM): (Speaking of...)
MilesMk1 (8:45:01 PM): "We decided it'd be prudent to get supplies in case this qurantine business turns even worse than it already has, ran into this bunch of assholes, they wouldn't share."
Umbrafer (8:45:02 PM): (I'm not sure where he is)
Umbrafer (8:45:19 PM): (I'll try calling in a few minutes when I'm off the foon)
Thematrian1 (8:45:46 PM): (foons are hazardous, I'd get off now if I were you)
Thematrian1 (8:46:00 PM): A moment of silence. "Did you leave any?"
Thematrian1 (8:46:14 PM): Several aisles away, there's a loud crash
MilesMk1 (8:46:43 PM): Is the crash from the direction where I left Sigrun's guy watching the prisoners?
Thematrian1 (8:47:18 PM): right direction laterally, but the wrong end of the aisles
MilesMk1 (8:47:24 PM): "We got two or three live ones."
MilesMk1 (8:47:42 PM): "Trickster, can you please check in on our prisoners and that noise?"
Dragcrell (8:48:10 PM): *nods and goes to check to see what it was*
MilesMk1 (8:48:19 PM): "And there's probably some live ones in the pile I got with a concussion grenade."
MilesMk1 (8:48:36 PM): (assuming he's not asking about the supplies, since he can see the state of the shelves himself)
Thematrian1 (8:49:27 PM): Another pause.
MilesMk1 (8:49:31 PM): #Got the invisible guy to talk... He's saying he's here for a rescue.#
Thematrian1 (8:49:34 PM): roll perception, with hearing mods if you've got 'em
MilesMk1 (8:49:45 PM): MilesMk1 rolled 6 6-sided dice: 2 1 2 5 5 1
MilesMk1 (8:50:02 PM): Hah. Payback for all those good perception rolls...
Dragcrell (8:51:05 PM): Dragcrell rolled 7 6-sided dice: 5 6 3 4 3 4 5
Dragcrell (8:51:15 PM): Dragcrell rolled 1 6-sided die: 5
Dragcrell (8:51:47 PM): ( you know realy not fare I do better on thos rolls then combat ones >_> *cough*)
Thematrian1 (8:51:57 PM): ok. Trickster hears the guy land on the floor. He can also see the guy's aura, though, so that's not too exciting.
Umbrafer (8:52:42 PM): #Rescuing who?# *Take aim take aim take aim at the guy in the truck*
MilesMk1 (8:53:27 PM): #Didn't say. He's being pretty tight-lipped - not suprisingly.#
Thematrian1 (8:55:53 PM): He speaks: "Peace, then?"
Umbrafer (8:56:03 PM): Unless I can see a way to force the driver to slow down/stop I fire on him when I think it's least likely to cause the truck to crash in a damaging fashion
Thematrian1 (8:56:22 PM): the driver has minimal skill; you're not sure that such a time will come
Umbrafer (8:56:50 PM): Is he at least slowing down for corners, etc?
Thematrian1 (8:56:58 PM): he was until he noticed you following him
Thematrian1 (8:57:01 PM): now he's running lights
Thematrian1 (8:57:08 PM): but the lights are doing all sorts of odd things anyhow
Umbrafer (8:57:36 PM): Oh wow, we've gotten that far already?
Thematrian1 (8:57:47 PM): did get, yeah
MilesMk1 (8:57:56 PM): "Like I said, I see no reason why we'd need to fight."
Gedeon Ogoun has entered the chat room.

Thematrian1 (8:59:41 PM): (It works. Nifty)
Thematrian1 (8:59:55 PM): Uncomfortably. "Thanks"
Dragcrell (9:00:03 PM): (O_o what works?)
MilesMk1 (9:00:53 PM): "If you want to check out the prisoner, you're welcome to do so - provided we can see you."
Umbrafer (9:00:54 PM): (Our mysterious new arrival)
Gedeon Ogoun (9:01:23 PM): oooohh
MilesMk1 (9:02:08 PM): "If you're not comfortable with that, I'd ask you to hang well back until we're done here, then the place is yours."
Thematrian1 (9:02:22 PM): Loooong pause. "It might be time critical."
Thematrian1 (9:02:52 PM): Then, all at once, you can see him. 5 foot eight, sandly blond hair, leaking blood from his face and side.
MilesMk1 (9:03:13 PM): *lowers his gun, nods*
MilesMk1 (9:03:24 PM): "Trickster? What the hell was that crash?"
Umbrafer (9:03:30 PM): (FYI: Adam picked up the phone but it was garbled. I suspect he's in someplace with poor reception, which reduces our chances of seeing him soon.)
Dragcrell (9:04:08 PM): "still checking on it." *contues to see what the crash was*
MilesMk1 (9:04:30 PM): *turns back to the blonde guy, points* "The surviving hostages and our prisoners are this way."
Thematrian1 (9:04:46 PM): Trickster: you step over some corpses or unconscious bodies. You find a damaged refridgerator lying on its side, half-atop another refridgerator. The fire door behind it is open.
MilesMk1 (9:05:15 PM): Ah. I guess the shmucks I saw finally got that fire door open...
MilesMk1 (9:05:42 PM): "I fired on no one that wasn't armed, so unless your target was one of the men with guns..."
Umbrafer (9:05:46 PM): They damaged the refrigerators…
MilesMk1 (9:06:02 PM): Well, just one... And we have plenty of others.
Dragcrell (9:06:03 PM): "Looks like some one was makeing a exit out the Fire door." *shuts it and then heads back to Blake and the other guy*
MilesMk1 (9:06:34 PM): "By the way, was that incendiary grenade one of yours, or is there someone else here we still need to worry about?"
Thematrian1 (9:06:52 PM): "That was mine."
Thematrian1 (9:06:59 PM): He smiles a little. He looks awfully tired.
Gedeon Ogoun has left the chat room.

Thematrian1 (9:07:25 PM): Unless there's more talk, he slips past you and starts jogging toward the prisoners.
MilesMk1 (9:07:32 PM): (who's Gedeon Ogoun, BTW? The houngan for Thuesday's game?)
Umbrafer (9:07:38 PM): (Yep)
Thematrian1 (9:07:43 PM): (Ogoun, huh? Guess it beats Ghede)
MilesMk1 (9:07:48 PM): I jog after him.
Gedeon Ogoun has entered the chat room.

MilesMk1 (9:08:17 PM): (What's the name of the guy we left in charge? Starts with S? I always fotget it...)
Thematrian1 (9:08:21 PM): (Serlin)
MilesMk1 (9:08:29 PM): (Thanks.)
MilesMk1 (9:09:16 PM): *goes back, checks on Serlin, then watches what the blonde guy*
MilesMk1 (9:09:31 PM): (scratch that "what")
Thematrian1 (9:10:02 PM): He scans the standing, living prisoners, body language going from 'tired' to 'dejected'
MilesMk1 (9:10:20 PM): #Apparently one of the civilians... He turned off the Ruthenium, and I'm playing nice and letting him take a look at the survivors. Doesn't look happy...#
Thematrian1 (9:11:16 PM): He heads into the Aisle of Death and starts examining bodies. On the fourth one (an orkish boy, probably a young teenager though it's hard to tell with orks, he stops)
Thematrian1 (9:11:23 PM): Alex, what were you up to again?
Umbrafer (9:11:47 PM): *Ratatatatatatata*
Thematrian1 (9:11:53 PM): Serlin just nods to you.
Umbrafer (9:12:03 PM): SEG
Thematrian1 (9:12:08 PM): ok, roll it
Umbrafer (9:12:16 PM): Three rounds, full pool.
Umbrafer (9:12:24 PM): Umbrafer rolled 15 6-sided dice: 2 3 6 5 6 4 6 1 3 1 3 1 2 2 5
Umbrafer (9:12:30 PM): Umbrafer rolled 3 6-sided dice: 1 4 3
MilesMk1 (9:12:39 PM): *steps close to Serlin, whispers* #Alex had to stop their truck from getting away, but we should be getting out of here soon.#
MilesMk1 (9:13:39 PM): I also try to get a better look at the body he's looking at - is it a) dead b) shot by us or the thugs?
Umbrafer (9:14:12 PM): *Digs for the SEG modifiers* Don't suppose the guy in the truck was a Troll, was he?
Thematrian1 (9:14:17 PM): a) yes. b) How would you tell?
Thematrian1 (9:14:21 PM): Thematrian1 rolled 15 6-sided dice: 6 6 1 2 2 3 5 1 3 5 3 3 6 5 6
Thematrian1 (9:14:26 PM): No, he wasn't
Umbrafer (9:14:47 PM): Ah well, no -1 to TN
MilesMk1 (9:14:58 PM): Well, I'd know if I shot him, right? Since in this area, I only killed the leader and two henchmen.
Thematrian1 (9:15:20 PM): He's not any of those three.
Thematrian1 (9:15:32 PM): Bloody Mess is just kneeling there.
MilesMk1 (9:16:25 PM): *shifts uncomfortably* "Bad news, I take it..."
Thematrian1 (9:16:34 PM): No sign that he even heard you.
Thematrian1 (9:16:46 PM): Alex: that's 2 successes?
Thematrian1 (9:16:53 PM): Thematrian1 rolled 3 6-sided dice: 4 3 5
Umbrafer (9:17:31 PM): Should be
Umbrafer (9:17:41 PM): Unless there are other mods at play
Thematrian1 (9:18:22 PM): The driver tries to retain control of his vehicle, and fails. He's paste. The truck sails through a street light that's rapidly oscillating between red and yellow; luckily there's only a little traffic on the roads
MilesMk1 (9:20:10 PM): *backs up to give him some space, then looks for the calmest-looking ex-hostage* "Stand up, please. And explain to me what exactly happened here."
Thematrian1 (9:20:13 PM): Thematrian1 rolled 15 6-sided dice: 4 1 2 3 5 1 2 3 6 4 5 6 2 3 3
Thematrian1 (9:20:36 PM): calmest-looking is, oddly enough, the bald six-year-old girl.
Dragcrell (9:20:46 PM): *looks about for a new shirt prefuably one with out holes in it
Thematrian1 (9:20:53 PM): Trickster: perception
Dragcrell (9:21:04 PM): Dragcrell rolled 7 6-sided dice: 1 5 1 3 6 6 5
Dragcrell (9:21:11 PM): Dragcrell rolled 2 6-sided dice: 1 5
MilesMk1 (9:21:28 PM): Why am I suddenly reminded of the freaky kid at the UB headquarters?
Thematrian1 (9:21:41 PM): natural paranoia, I'd guess
Dragcrell (9:21:54 PM): (shackes head* ya go me >_> wish I coudl get those rolls in a fight lol)
Thematrian1 (9:21:59 PM): The only unholed shirts are being worn by living people
Thematrian1 (9:22:07 PM): None of the survivors are magical in any way
MilesMk1 (9:22:28 PM): If the calmest is a six-year old, I'll settle for the next-calmest adult.
Dragcrell (9:22:33 PM): (mmm well so much for a chang of shirts*
MilesMk1 (9:22:41 PM): But I'll keep a watchful eye on the weird kid.
Thematrian1 (9:22:56 PM): She's sitting there, intently focused on the middle distance.
Thematrian1 (9:23:05 PM): Oh, and she's got a datajack.
Dragcrell (9:23:14 PM): *gives her a good looking over*
Thematrian1 (9:23:17 PM): Next-calmest is an elderly human man.
MilesMk1 (9:23:27 PM): I put my question to him.
Dragcrell (9:23:49 PM): Dragcrell rolled 7 6-sided dice: 2 4 4 6 3 1 6
Dragcrell (9:23:56 PM): Dragcrell rolled 2 6-sided dice: 5 3
Thematrian1 (9:23:59 PM): He looks annoyed. "They kept a herd of people right there." ::he points into the aisle:: "When I came in, they pointed a gun at me and told me to stand with them. I did."
Thematrian1 (9:24:19 PM): Alex: the truck goes off the street and destroys a lamp post, but the damage doesn't look too terrible
Umbrafer (9:25:03 PM): As long as it'll still drive. What's the damage to the driver like?
Umbrafer (9:25:27 PM): (Otaku…)
MilesMk1 (9:25:38 PM): "You came in, why? To work? To shop?"
Thematrian1 (9:25:43 PM): Trickster: Definitely not magical. Essence of about five. Very tranquil.
Thematrian1 (9:25:59 PM): "To buy lumber, and maybe a generator. It could get bad in here for a few weeks."
MilesMk1 (9:26:48 PM): "The ork woman in a suit... *points out corpse* Was she with them?"
Thematrian1 (9:27:23 PM): "She got herded in with the rest of us."
Thematrian1 (9:27:33 PM): The rest of the survivors have spread out, to give you two some space.
Dragcrell has left the chat room.

MilesMk1 (9:28:05 PM): "That's strange, I ran into her outside, and she acted like she owned the place..."
Thematrian1 (9:28:08 PM): Alex: You getting out to look? He's still got a heartbeat, albeit a weak one.
Thematrian1 (9:28:12 PM): "Maybe she did."
Umbrafer (9:29:03 PM): The truck's stopped? I'm mostly going to try to take a peek through the presumably-destroyed window.
Thematrian1 (9:29:25 PM): he's not moving. You didn't hithim in the head, but you hit all the other major body locations, it looks like
MilesMk1 (9:30:11 PM): #Alex... Looks like we have some people here who just came in for supplies, and one weird kid with a shaved head and a data jack.#
MilesMk1 (9:30:23 PM): "All right... Anyone else have anything to add?"
Thematrian1 (9:30:42 PM): Everyone recoils a little bit.
MilesMk1 (9:30:47 PM): *sighs*
MilesMk1 (9:31:16 PM): "You will be free to go once we're done here. We have no reason or intention to shoot random people."
Umbrafer (9:31:54 PM): #I tagged the runner. Coming back as soon as possible.
Umbrafer (9:31:59 PM): *#
Thematrian1 (9:33:17 PM): just leaving the truck?
Umbrafer (9:34:33 PM): Nope. Who's in the back of the van right now?
Thematrian1 (9:34:42 PM): you've still got the orks
Umbrafer (9:34:53 PM): How good a look at the guy in the truck do I have?
Thematrian1 (9:35:12 PM): not very
MilesMk1 (9:35:40 PM): *drags one of our thug prisoners to his feet* (or knees, so I don't have to look up) "And what about you, pal? How did your merry bunch of assholes end up here? Who are you working for?"
Thematrian1 (9:36:26 PM): "Said he'd give us five hunnert each to rough people up."
Dragcrell has entered the chat room.

Umbrafer (9:36:54 PM): Do I have a general idea of how I'd reboot the drone brain on a truck of this class?
Dragcrell (9:37:25 PM): (ok anythaing said or done affter the old guy told how he was there for lumber and a genurator I missed >_>)
Thematrian1 (9:37:28 PM): yes, but you can't do it remotely
Umbrafer (9:37:43 PM): I take aim take aim take aim and SEG one shot on the guy inside.
Umbrafer (9:37:53 PM): Umbrafer rolled 15 6-sided dice: 5 3 3 3 3 2 5 6 5 4 3 5 4 2 2
Umbrafer (9:38:00 PM): Umbrafer rolled 1 6-sided die: 2
MilesMk1 (9:38:04 PM): "Who did? This one" *points at the dead leader*
Umbrafer (9:38:28 PM): If that misses I do another as soon as possible, no sense in letting him suffer in anticipation.
Thematrian1 (9:38:38 PM): He gets a machine gun bullet in the eye. He wasn't really moving before, but his stillness gets more profound.
Umbrafer (9:39:08 PM): "I need one of you to get out and [rebooting instructions]. I'll cover you."
Umbrafer (9:39:18 PM): Looking about the area for targets.
Umbrafer (9:39:29 PM): Umbrafer rolled 8 6-sided dice: 6 5 3 5 4 6 6 1
Umbrafer (9:39:44 PM): Umbrafer rolled 3 6-sided dice: 2 3 3
Umbrafer (9:40:04 PM): Umbrafer rolled 5 6-sided dice: 4 2 2 3 6
Umbrafer (9:40:11 PM): Umbrafer rolled 1 6-sided die: 3
Thematrian1 (9:40:15 PM): (Alex: this is something that requires knowledge of electronics b/r and computers to do. For exactly this reason it's not a trivial procedure)
Umbrafer (9:42:10 PM): (Bah.) "Cover me. I need to get out and [reboot]"
Umbrafer (9:42:22 PM): The scan-for-targets still happens.
Umbrafer (9:43:26 PM): (What good are random Ork gangers if they aren't tech wizzes?)
Thematrian1 (9:43:40 PM): Nothing on the street.
Thematrian1 (9:43:47 PM): There are people in the buildings surrounding; lots of them
Dragcrell (9:44:24 PM): (muscel >_> tech wizzes woudl be at the base working on the vehicles I would think lol)
Umbrafer (9:44:28 PM): Hmm… any near the windows?
Thematrian1 (9:44:32 PM): Muscleman: "Yeah, him."
Thematrian1 (9:44:41 PM): He doesn't seem particularly concerned about his leader's death.
MilesMk1 (9:44:58 PM): Does he seem concerned at all about his own likely death?
Thematrian1 (9:45:14 PM): He seems to think you're going to let him go.
Umbrafer (9:45:59 PM): I'm going to give the van orders to swivel its turret around menacingly and get out from the passenger's door (making sure it ends up closest to the truck, of course)
Thematrian1 (9:46:42 PM): it swivels around. You get out of the truck. You catch a moment of dizziness as your feet hit the ground, but you steady yourself.
MilesMk1 (9:46:48 PM): (We have three prisoners, right?)
Thematrian1 (9:46:51 PM): It's hot out, and the sky above is blue and totally clear.
Thematrian1 (9:46:58 PM): (Only two, IIRC)
Umbrafer (9:48:02 PM): "God damn it, I always forget about this…"
MilesMk1 (9:48:28 PM): (Didn't Trickster capture one? Oh well.)
Umbrafer (9:48:48 PM): *Tries desperately to make it to the truck without staggering too badly on the way*
Dragcrell (9:49:20 PM): (ya I did a Ork)
Thematrian1 (9:49:36 PM): (That's right, three. Forgot about him)
Thematrian1 (9:49:56 PM): Alex: it's a short distance. Roll perception
Umbrafer (9:51:35 PM): Umbrafer rolled 8 6-sided dice: 1 3 4 3 5 6 5 4
MilesMk1 (9:51:37 PM): "And who was he working for? Who were they going to deliver this stuff to? You'd better hope you heard something." *lifts gun*
Umbrafer (9:51:44 PM): Umbrafer rolled 1 6-sided die: 1
Umbrafer (9:51:51 PM): Oh dear.
Thematrian1 (9:52:07 PM): With mods, that's a 2, right?
Thematrian1 (9:52:30 PM): or, more precisely, your TN mods are still +5?
Umbrafer (9:52:33 PM): Er, yes. *Trying to figure out whether or not to karma*
MilesMk1 (9:52:46 PM): (You only have a pool, of, what, 9? ;) )
Thematrian1 (9:53:19 PM): "I heard he was a yak. Dunno if it's true."
Umbrafer (9:53:32 PM): (I took Bad Karma at chargen. It was not the call.)
MilesMk1 (9:53:45 PM): (Ah...)
Umbrafer (9:54:02 PM): I'll let it lie and pray we don't get hit by a missile.
Umbrafer (9:54:08 PM): The Orks are covering me, right?
Thematrian1 (9:54:38 PM): Yep
Umbrafer (9:55:00 PM): *Prays that they're smart enough to warn of any danger*
Thematrian1 (9:55:24 PM): Thematrian1 rolled 15 6-sided dice: 1 6 2 2 5 5 5 3 6 1 6 6 3 2 4
MilesMk1 (9:55:27 PM): *pushes the asshole back down to the floor, goes over to check the leader for a) credsticks or anything else of value b) Distinctive tattoos*
Thematrian1 (9:55:50 PM): Thematrian1 rolled 4 6-sided dice: 1 4 5 5
Thematrian1 (9:55:56 PM): One of the orks, to the other: "Hey, what's that sound?"
Umbrafer (9:56:13 PM): *Dives for the van*
Umbrafer (9:56:30 PM): *While trying to figure out what that sound is, if possible*
Thematrian1 (9:56:32 PM): "I can't hear it."
MilesMk1 (9:56:35 PM): (Let us hope fervently it is not a buzzing sound...)
Thematrian1 (9:56:39 PM): "Sort of, a low humming?"
MilesMk1 (9:56:51 PM): (Fuck, fuck, fuck...)
Thematrian1 (9:57:14 PM): Credsticks: Yep. Not certified, though.
Thematrian1 (9:57:29 PM): Tatooes: do you have gang identification, or yakuza knowledge, or anything like that?
Umbrafer (9:57:32 PM): "Into the van, now!" How many trucks were loaded with supplies?
Thematrian1 (9:57:33 PM): Either Blake or Trickster?
Thematrian1 (9:57:39 PM): just the one that you saw
Dragcrell (9:57:56 PM): (nope)
Umbrafer (9:58:21 PM): Woah, wait
Umbrafer (9:58:31 PM): They got the whole place into one truck?
Thematrian1 (9:58:56 PM): you only saw one
MilesMk1 (9:58:58 PM): (Nope - mainly trying to check for the elaborate dragon-themed body-and-sleeve tats you see in movies)
Umbrafer (9:59:04 PM): Fair enow.
Umbrafer (9:59:11 PM): How far away are we?
MilesMk1 (9:59:28 PM): (Which reminds me... Was the loaded truck the one you shot up, or one of the others?)
Thematrian1 (9:59:30 PM): Blake: You don't see any of that. He's got a bunch of tatooes on his arms, but if there's a pattern it's leaves-and-flames
MilesMk1 (10:00:16 PM): I take a good look so I can descirbe them.
Thematrian1 (10:00:39 PM): so noted
MilesMk1 (10:00:49 PM): Then I head back to the civilians - specifically, the little girl.
Thematrian1 (10:01:26 PM): back you go. Trickster, what are you doing? Most of the civilians are watching you
Thematrian1 (10:01:31 PM): Alex: you're in the van.
EverGuard4 has entered the chat room.

MilesMk1 (10:02:03 PM): "What are you doing here by yourself, kid? Were you here with your parents?"

Dragcrell (10:02:14 PM): (mmm just keeping a eye out for any unwanted guest)
Umbrafer (10:02:59 PM): Where are the Orks?
MilesMk1 (10:03:17 PM): *nods to Serlin* "Hey, could you round up the guns and ammo, please? Might come in handy."
Thematrian1 (10:03:20 PM): They piled into the back when you did.
Thematrian1 (10:03:26 PM): They're looking at you attentively
Umbrafer (10:04:43 PM): "Where was the noise coming from?"
Umbrafer (10:04:53 PM): *Listening for it via the van's adio sensors*
EverGuard4 has entered the chat room.

Umbrafer (10:04:59 PM): *audio
Thematrian1 (10:05:01 PM): roll 'em
Umbrafer (10:06:08 PM): Umbrafer rolled 5 6-sided dice: 6 1 6 4 2
Umbrafer (10:06:11 PM): Umbrafer rolled 8 6-sided dice: 3 5 1 5 4 3 3 2

EverGuard4 has left the chat room.

Thematrian1 (10:07:43 PM): The truck, or something in it, is making a low humming sound. Terribly, terribly faint.
EverGuard4 has entered the chat room.

Umbrafer (10:08:05 PM): Can I get a read on the general location?
Thematrian1 (10:08:17 PM): Serlin starts picking up peoples' guns. He looks to be at it awhile
Umbrafer (10:08:40 PM): "Humming's coming from the truck, or in it…"
Thematrian1 (10:09:42 PM): General location of the humming? No
Umbrafer (10:09:59 PM): Does it sound like it could be bugs?
MilesMk1 (10:10:13 PM): If the kid doesn't answer, I repeat my question.
Thematrian1 (10:10:20 PM): It's pretty faint.
Thematrian1 (10:10:58 PM): She comes out of her reverie and looks into your eyes. Hers are green, and astonishingly intense.
Umbrafer (10:11:14 PM): Can I at least determine if it's in the cab or the trailer?
Umbrafer (10:11:20 PM): "Damn… we need this truck."
Thematrian1 (10:11:22 PM): Thematrian1 rolled 15 6-sided dice: 1 6 3 6 5 3 4 1 3 2 2 2 3 5 3
Thematrian1 (10:11:33 PM): Mmph. Looks like both.
Umbrafer (10:11:59 PM): "One of you watch the building, one of you keep an eye on the truck. Shout if you see anything."
Umbrafer (10:12:09 PM): *Take two*
Thematrian1 (10:12:40 PM): There are many buildings. They set themselves to watching.
Umbrafer (10:13:29 PM): *Gets out, gets into the cab, starts fiddling with the electronics*
Thematrian1 (10:14:07 PM): Perception again.
Umbrafer (10:14:43 PM): Umbrafer rolled 8 6-sided dice: 3 5 6 1 5 5 5 2

Thematrian1 (10:15:03 PM): reroll all
Umbrafer (10:15:11 PM): Umbrafer rolled 8 6-sided dice: 1 6 2 1 5 5 1 4

Umbrafer (10:15:22 PM): ……………
Umbrafer (10:15:28 PM): C'mon, Orks
Thematrian1 (10:15:54 PM): "I dunno, I still hear it." "I don't hear anything."
Umbrafer (10:16:17 PM): Do I see anything unusual in the cab?
Thematrian1 (10:16:43 PM): one moment please
Umbrafer (10:16:50 PM): Umbrafer rolled 8 6-sided dice: 5 4 4 1 6 6 3 4
Thematrian1 (10:16:54 PM): Kid: "My family isn't here."
Umbrafer (10:16:57 PM): Umbrafer rolled 2 6-sided dice: 2 6
Thematrian1 (10:17:02 PM): what was that?
Umbrafer (10:17:05 PM): Umbrafer rolled 1 6-sided die: 3
Umbrafer (10:17:32 PM): Intelligence test to see if I'd remember about shock security systems
Umbrafer (10:17:45 PM): I did. When the action gets around to me again I'll be checking for that.
Thematrian1 (10:17:48 PM): You do.
Thematrian1 (10:18:22 PM): Kid: "They're waiting for me."
MilesMk1 (10:19:04 PM): "Where are they waiting for you? How did you get here?" *to the hostages* "Anyone have a clue how this child ended up here?"
EverGuard4 (10:19:08 PM): EverGuard4 rolled 9 6-sided dice: 6 3 5 4 2 5 2 6 4
Thematrian1 (10:19:19 PM): Alex: How do you propose to check for that?
MilesMk1 (10:20:49 PM): (Have one of the orks touch it.)
MilesMk1 (10:21:11 PM): (Better yet, wait for me to get there.)
Umbrafer (10:21:32 PM): How far away from the Home Despot are we?
Thematrian1 (10:21:40 PM): 3-4 minutes
Umbrafer (10:21:56 PM): By car or on foot?
Thematrian1 (10:22:44 PM): Alex: you tear out a few strands of your hair and lay them against the truck. They smoke and crackle.
Dragcrell (10:23:07 PM): (brb)
Umbrafer (10:23:12 PM): Aw crud.
Umbrafer (10:23:34 PM): Well, that's some sort of good news, less likely to get looted.
Umbrafer (10:23:44 PM): "Let's go pick up the others."
MilesMk1 (10:24:50 PM): (Hmm... Would shock gloves count as non-conductive, by an chance? They'd have to be, or you'd electrocute yourself along with your target, right?)
Thematrian1 (10:24:54 PM): They get in.
Thematrian1 (10:25:11 PM): (They at least are along the shock patches. More generally...sure, why not?)
Thematrian1 (10:27:12 PM): Hostages: a general shrug. Kid: "I'm here. May I go?"
MilesMk1 (10:29:09 PM): *quietly* "Why does this always happen to me?" *to kid* "Soon. My friends and I need to finish packing up first."
MilesMk1 (10:30:03 PM): #How do you feel about letting a six year old girl wander out of here on her own?#
MilesMk1 (10:30:54 PM): *walks over to the blonde guy* "I'm sorry... Is there anything you need? First aid? We're going to be leaving soon."
Thematrian1 (10:30:57 PM): She shrugs, and goes back to examining the middle distance.
Umbrafer (10:31:02 PM): #I… what other choice do we have?#
Umbrafer (10:31:42 PM): #They've got a damn shock system on the truck, I'm going to have to leave it for now. Think you can get past it?#
MilesMk1 (10:31:55 PM): #Probably.#
Umbrafer (10:32:04 PM): Going to call the Strato over and leave it high up near the truck, occasionally looking through it.
MilesMk1 (10:32:18 PM): #Is it the truck with all the goodies, or one of the others?#
Thematrian1 (10:32:38 PM): This would be one of the armed stratos?
Umbrafer (10:32:45 PM): #Goodies. We need this truck.#
Umbrafer (10:33:23 PM): Yep
MilesMk1 (10:33:26 PM): #Well, then I guess we don't have a choice. I'll see what I can do.#
Thematrian1 (10:33:41 PM): The hostages look quietly desperate, but no one says anything
Umbrafer (10:33:55 PM): #Check the other trucks, there are probably more with goodies there.#
MilesMk1 (10:35:28 PM): *looks at the hostages* "Look, if I didn't give a damn if you lived or died, I would have just tossed a a few grenade in here and sifted the pieces for cash. I'm not going to kill you. If you want to say something..."
MilesMk1 (10:36:49 PM): #I will, just as soon as we're all together and I don't have to babysit a bunch of scared people... It's like I attract victims. Or maybe I'm just too nice...#
MilesMk1 (10:37:14 PM): (not making that sound angry, just sort of bewildered)
Thematrian1 (10:37:28 PM): None of the hostages say anything.
MilesMk1 (10:37:43 PM): Blonde guy?
Thematrian1 (10:37:51 PM): Is eyeing the door.
MilesMk1 (10:39:16 PM): Trickster is still here, right?
Thematrian1 (10:39:22 PM): yes
Dragcrell (10:39:26 PM): ya
MilesMk1 (10:39:50 PM): If yes, I'll ask him and Serlin to watch the people, and I'll check to see if any of the other trucks were loaded.
Dragcrell (10:40:27 PM): *stands in a area where I can see them with out haveing to move much*
MilesMk1 (10:40:34 PM): Quickly but not recklessly, in case some scared ganger with an SMG hid in one...
Thematrian1 (10:41:10 PM): It should be noted that they didn't empty the place; you walk past a large insecticide display, for example
Thematrian1 (10:41:13 PM): There's a second truck, maybe half full.
Umbrafer (10:42:13 PM): Any sign of trouble near the truck?
Thematrian1 (10:42:26 PM): There's no one inside.
Thematrian1 (10:42:34 PM): Your truck, you mean?
MilesMk1 (10:42:51 PM): #Looks like there's another truck, half-loaded. We can toss the insecticide and fertilizer on it.#
Umbrafer (10:43:52 PM): #Go for it. Any refrigerators?#
MilesMk1 (10:44:03 PM): Ok... Just to simplify this a bit, I go back, and - since they've been useless - knock our thug prisoners unconscious.
Umbrafer (10:44:11 PM): #While you're at it, [reboot the drones]#
MilesMk1 (10:44:46 PM): Didn't they load refrigerators on the first truck?
Thematrian1 (10:45:13 PM): yes
MilesMk1 (10:45:17 PM): I'm sure we saw them carry some on board, because Alex swore vengeance over it... Ah.
Thematrian1 (10:45:30 PM): the thug prisoners get shocked out
MilesMk1 (10:46:09 PM): Ok. Can I reboot the drone?
Thematrian1 (10:46:38 PM): you need Electronics B/R and Computers
MilesMk1 (10:46:43 PM): If it's electronics and electronics B/R, I should be good, but if it requires computers, too... Gah.
MilesMk1 (10:47:02 PM): I guess I can default to electronics, right?
Umbrafer (10:47:07 PM): Bah. Ah well.
Thematrian1 (10:47:56 PM): Mmm. I'll allow the default at +3.
MilesMk1 (10:48:41 PM): That's probably better chances than Alex's, with all her wound mods...
Thematrian1 (10:49:02 PM): true fact
MilesMk1 (10:49:18 PM): I'll try it. B/R first:
MilesMk1 (10:49:23 PM): MilesMk1 rolled 5 6-sided dice: 4 5 1 4 4
MilesMk1 (10:49:48 PM): Here's hoping microscopic vision saves the day once again...
Thematrian1 (10:50:43 PM): You crack the system open with lightning speed. The job usually takes ten minutes, but today it barely takes two.
EverGuard4 (10:50:49 PM): EverGuard4 rolled 9 6-sided dice: 6 6 4 6 5 1 5 6 1
MilesMk1 (10:51:06 PM): Ok... "Computers" now...
MilesMk1 (10:51:10 PM): MilesMk1 rolled 5 6-sided dice: 1 1 2 3 2
MilesMk1 (10:51:13 PM): Karma.
Thematrian1 (10:51:24 PM): I'll leave you to guess how many to reroll
MilesMk1 (10:51:27 PM): MilesMk1 rolled 5 6-sided dice: 4 1 3 1 5
MilesMk1 (10:51:30 PM): FUCK!
Umbrafer (10:51:54 PM): Here's hoping for TN 2.
Thematrian1 (10:51:57 PM): no dice. You've never done this before, it's not your field anyway, and the output you're getting from the drone module isn't making sense
MilesMk1 (10:52:37 PM): #The computer's giving me trouble. Someone might just have to drive it manually. Sigrun's guy *have to* be able to drive a truck, right?#
MilesMk1 (10:52:51 PM): guys
MilesMk1 (10:53:17 PM): I mutter angrily under my breath as I manhandle insecticide into the truck.
EverGuard4 (10:53:25 PM): EverGuard4 rolled 9 6-sided dice: 6 6 1 4 5 5 4 3 5
EverGuard4 (10:55:05 PM): EverGuard4 rolled 9 6-sided dice: 5 2 3 6 3 5 2 1 5
Thematrian1 (10:55:24 PM): the insecticide is in
Thematrian1 (10:55:59 PM): Serlin, when next you see him: "That little girl just wandered out. Is that ok?"
MilesMk1 (10:57:05 PM): "I don't see what we could do with her. I hate to leave a kid to wander alone, but..." *shrugs*
Thematrian1 (10:57:25 PM): "She was pretty weird. Magical, maybe."
Gedeon Ogoun has left the chat room.

Thematrian1 (10:57:37 PM): He sort of glances sideways at Trickster as he says that.
Dragcrell (10:58:14 PM): "doutfull as she had a datajack rember hard to say what all else she had implanted."
Thematrian1 (10:58:27 PM): He nods, accepting that.
MilesMk1 (10:59:35 PM): *looks at Trickster questioningly* "Well... Another reason why it was probably best to leave her be. If this was a sane situation, we could do something about it. As it is, we have enough people to take care of."
MilesMk1 (10:59:42 PM): *looks unhappy when he says that*
MilesMk1 (11:00:35 PM): "Can you drive one of those?" *points to the trucks*
Dragcrell (11:00:39 PM): *nods* " besides her parents might have been some of the ones killed and the shock......*
Thematrian1 (11:01:31 PM): He smiles a bit. "Yeah"
Thematrian1 (11:01:39 PM): In response to Blake's question
MilesMk1 (11:03:02 PM): "Good, because I couldn't get it slaved to the drone network - I can get access to it, but don't know enough to reprogram the damn thing."
Thematrian1 (11:03:44 PM): He just nods. "Are we leaving?"
MilesMk1 (11:04:38 PM): "Soon as Alex gets back here."
MilesMk1 (11:04:48 PM): How is that coming along, BTW?
Thematrian1 (11:05:03 PM): Alex rolls in.
Umbrafer (11:05:12 PM): *Roll roll roll*
MilesMk1 (11:05:31 PM): #Got the truck packed with insecticide and sprayers, but couldn't reboot the drone... I think we'll have to settle for driving the two trucks out of here by hand.#
Umbrafer (11:05:55 PM): #Let me take a look at it.#
MilesMk1 (11:06:03 PM): #All right.#
MilesMk1 (11:06:19 PM): What's blonde guy doing, by the way?
Thematrian1 (11:06:52 PM): Just watching you guys
Thematrian1 (11:07:01 PM): there seem to be fewer hostages here than before
MilesMk1 (11:08:30 PM): "Trickster? Why are people missing?"
Dragcrell (11:09:23 PM): *points to the doors* "they just walked out the doors nothing hostel so." *shurges*
MilesMk1 (11:10:14 PM): "It's usually better to... Aw, hell with it."
Umbrafer (11:10:44 PM): (He ate them!)
Dragcrell (11:10:58 PM): " I can start shootign the ones that try and leave in the leg if you want but eh wast of ammo I would think."
Dragcrell (11:11:18 PM): (smart ass tho Foxes are known to scavage *chucles*)
MilesMk1 (11:11:46 PM): "Har, har. Just politely ask them to stay put."
Dragcrell (11:12:51 PM): *shurges* "ok."
MilesMk1 (11:13:33 PM): *to the blonde guy* "If you don't mind me asking - what were the quarantine measures like on your way in here?"
Thematrian1 (11:14:10 PM): "Just what everyone's read in those booklets."
MilesMk1 (11:14:32 PM): "Mhmm."
MilesMk1 (11:15:15 PM): "Well, good luck getting out, I guess." *goes back to helping to pack things up, stow our newfound guns, and generally help get us the hell out of here*
Thematrian1 (11:18:20 PM): He nods
MilesMk1 (11:19:57 PM): (Can't help thinking we're sort of missing out on stuff here, but given the circumstances, it'd be stretching it if we adopted the little girl and made best friends with some random invisible guy.)
Umbrafer (11:20:45 PM): Did I see the girl on my way in, by the by?
Thematrian1 (11:21:06 PM): (It's always your choice. Play in character and all is well :-D)
Thematrian1 (11:21:19 PM): Alex: No; were you searching for her?
Umbrafer (11:21:38 PM): No, didn't know to
Dragcrell (11:21:42 PM): (lol that could be dangeruse with Trick tho ;3)
Thematrian1 (11:22:52 PM): ok. Alex is there, Blake is there, the orks are with the other truck
Thematrian1 (11:22:56 PM): right?
Umbrafer (11:23:52 PM): Going to give a go at rebooting the drone brains, leaving Blake to watch the Strato when he gets the chance.
Dragcrell (11:24:42 PM): *keeps a eye on the ppl asking em nicely to say put if they move*
MilesMk1 (11:24:49 PM): *watches the Strato when he gets the chance*
Thematrian1 (11:27:08 PM): The strato is just sitting there
MilesMk1 (11:28:04 PM): I think the idea was for me to use the spare remote control deck to see what it sees, actually. (right?)
Umbrafer (11:28:18 PM): Yep
Umbrafer (11:29:10 PM): (Just B/R and Computers as before?)
Thematrian1 (11:29:24 PM): (Just computers; Blake's B/R works for you too)
Umbrafer (11:29:36 PM): (Ah, good times)
Umbrafer (11:29:43 PM): Umbrafer rolled 6 6-sided dice: 2 1 4 5 3 5
Thematrian1 (11:29:47 PM): You look down on the scene from above. Nothing much is happening. The orks are sitting on the sidewalk, watching the van.
Umbrafer (11:29:53 PM): Harrumph.
Umbrafer (11:30:08 PM): To karma or not to karma.
Thematrian1 (11:30:16 PM): Even on a good day, you don't think you'd be able to make sense of whatever bizarre interface you've tapped into. Today, with every nerve ending screaming...no chance
MilesMk1 (11:30:33 PM): So, the truck we left behind is still unmolested, right?
Thematrian1 (11:30:38 PM): yep
Umbrafer (11:31:48 PM): Any charred corpses?
Thematrian1 (11:31:55 PM): Not yet
MilesMk1 (11:32:26 PM): I think it's time we drive out here, hotwire the other truck, and go back, to be hailed as the Bringers of Refrigerators.
MilesMk1 (11:32:34 PM): out of here
Umbrafer (11:32:55 PM): Sounds good to me.
Thematrian1 (11:35:22 PM): Unless you stop him, Serlin climbs into the driver's seat for the other truck
MilesMk1 (11:35:31 PM): Ok - let's ask Serlin to drive the truck (with the AK-wielding orc as shotgun) and head for the other one.
MilesMk1 (11:36:18 PM): Also, tell the hostages they're free to leave.
Thematrian1 (11:37:36 PM): AK-wielding ork is still with the other truck. The hostages don't move.
MilesMk1 (11:37:52 PM): Ok. I guess we leave.
Dragcrell (11:38:25 PM): *gets in the van and gets ready to head out giveing one last look around for any odditys*
Dragcrell (11:38:56 PM): Dragcrell rolled 7 6-sided dice: 5 6 2 3 4 5 5
Dragcrell (11:39:03 PM): Dragcrell rolled 1 6-sided die: 4
Thematrian1 (11:39:27 PM): Nothing odd jumps out at you
Thematrian1 (11:40:29 PM): so to speak
Thematrian1 (11:40:33 PM): Drive drive drive
Umbrafer (11:40:45 PM): *Drive drive drive8
Thematrian1 (11:41:02 PM): When you get there, the orks are engaged in conversation with a trio of teenage boys.
MilesMk1 (11:42:22 PM): I get out. What are they saying?
Thematrian1 (11:42:28 PM): When you approach, one ork calls out: "They want to know if they can have the truck."
Umbrafer (11:43:13 PM): #The hell are they chipping?#
MilesMk1 (11:43:47 PM): "Funny. Run along, kids."
Thematrian1 (11:44:09 PM): You still carrying your arsenal?
MilesMk1 (11:44:12 PM): #No clue, but my patience is wearing thin.#
MilesMk1 (11:44:17 PM): Oh yes.
Thematrian1 (11:44:24 PM): They run along.
MilesMk1 (11:45:14 PM): All right - I try to get the security system disarmed and the truck running, hopefully without electrocuting myself.
Thematrian1 (11:45:18 PM): The truck sits there.
Thematrian1 (11:45:35 PM): Ok. Roll Electronics B/R. I should warn you, this test is quite difficult and failure will result in a shock
Umbrafer (11:45:50 PM): "Were they offering anything or just beetleheaded?"
Thematrian1 (11:46:06 PM): "They were just screwing around."
MilesMk1 (11:46:13 PM): I'm still protected by 1/2 impact armor, and cn soak normally, right?
Thematrian1 (11:46:19 PM): yep
MilesMk1 (11:46:25 PM): Ok.
MilesMk1 (11:46:32 PM): MilesMk1 rolled 5 6-sided dice: 3 1 4 6 5

MilesMk1 (11:46:49 PM): Heh. Heh.
Thematrian1 (11:46:55 PM): that will do nicely
Thematrian1 (11:47:59 PM): a little pressure here, some carefully applied voltage there, and the security system is sealed off at its source. Some people watch Blake's performance through the windows of the surrounding buildings
Thematrian1 (11:48:04 PM): they turn away when you notice them
MilesMk1 (11:49:12 PM): Can I open it up and drive it out of here now, or do I need to crack the door? (or climb in through the shattered side window)
Thematrian1 (11:49:49 PM): Alex peppered one window with machine-gun fire, so you can use that
MilesMk1 (11:49:59 PM): (BTW, like in any major fight, my face is covered by the FFBA hood - not that it really makes me a lot less distinctive...)
MilesMk1 (11:50:39 PM): Ok - I clamber in, open the door from the inside, shift over the body of the former driver, and follow Alex out of here.)
Umbrafer (11:51:25 PM): *Vroom*
Thematrian1 (11:51:43 PM): A corpse with a shattered skull has been rotting in this cabin for almost an hour in the hot August sun. Being inside this truck is not a pleasant experience.
Thematrian1 (11:51:49 PM): but off you go
MilesMk1 (11:51:56 PM): Ideally, with a brief stop at a dumpster - I search the body, then get rid of it.
Thematrian1 (11:53:02 PM): search search. You find most of a credstick, all of a handgun, and a ring made from copper wire
Umbrafer (11:53:30 PM): Ugh, we will have to scrub this cabin out.
Umbrafer (11:53:43 PM): Hygiene is always one of the first things to go when civilization falls apart.
MilesMk1 (11:53:50 PM): Mhmm... Maybe someone can tell me later if that's a gang mark. Keep the gun, toss the rest.
Thematrian1 (11:53:59 PM): ok then. Return in triumph?
MilesMk1 (11:54:33 PM): Yes!
Umbrafer (11:54:55 PM): We are the bringers of refrigerators, we are the bringers of civilization.
Umbrafer (11:55:03 PM): Bow before us!
MilesMk1 (11:55:21 PM): (And if we come back to find a smoking ruin, I am never talking to you again before Thursday comes around.)
Thematrian1 (11:55:32 PM): ( ::snicker:: )
Thematrian1 (11:55:48 PM): You roll on back to Sigrun's. It's still there. Someone got the remains of the vindicator drone down off of the roof while you were out.
Thematrian1 (11:57:38 PM): The big door is still closed
MilesMk1 (11:58:30 PM): I come out and buzz the intercom, asking to be let in and for help with unloading?
Thematrian1 (11:59:44 PM): Accident's voice: "You'll get some."
MilesMk1 (12:01:14 AM): "All right." *heads back to the truck to wait for doors to open / people to come out."
MilesMk1 (12:01:20 AM): *

Thematrian1 (12:03:17 AM): looking for what?
Umbrafer (12:03:56 AM): Anything coming out of the building.
Thematrian1 (12:04:32 AM): fair enough. First nothing, then a disorderly mob
Thematrian1 (12:04:42 AM): The main door groans painfully, but it opens.
Umbrafer (12:04:53 AM): Nothing hostile-like?
Thematrian1 (12:05:13 AM): no
Umbrafer (12:05:52 AM): Incidentally, by this point Alex is probably taking on a somewhat yellowish tint (not sure if I mentioned this already)
MilesMk1 (12:06:41 AM): (Uh... I don't think you did. Liver trouble?)
MilesMk1 (12:07:05 AM): (If I notice, I'll probably comment on it.)
Umbrafer (12:07:14 AM): (Probably. Two full doses of narcoject aren't exactly good for it.)
Dragcrell has entered the chat room.

Dragcrell (12:08:55 AM): (dame Aim)
Thematrian1 (12:09:35 AM): Alex is noticably yellowish, yes
MilesMk1 (12:10:06 AM): Well, once we get settled, I'll offer to check in on her... Biotech or First Aid?
Thematrian1 (12:10:16 AM): Biotech
MilesMk1 (12:10:22 AM): Doh.
MilesMk1 (12:10:28 AM): MilesMk1 rolled 2 6-sided dice: 1 1
MilesMk1 (12:10:34 AM): Karma.
Thematrian1 (12:10:46 AM): ok
MilesMk1 (12:10:51 AM): (here's hoping what we did counts as a run and it'll refresh once we rest...)
MilesMk1 (12:10:57 AM): MilesMk1 rolled 2 6-sided dice: 2 5
Dragcrell (12:11:01 AM): (O_o wow rules of one with out it ya lol)
Thematrian1 (12:11:24 AM): (I had a spiffy result queued up if you decided not to karma)
Thematrian1 (12:11:32 AM): The Great Unloading begins
Thematrian1 (12:11:48 AM): Rock is there.
MilesMk1 (12:11:57 AM): (I invested too much effort into keeping her alive to give up now.)
Dragcrell (12:13:20 AM): "So much go on here Rock or was it farly quiet?"
Umbrafer (12:13:40 AM): What is their response to the take?
Thematrian1 (12:14:11 AM): There is whooping. Much less once they have to actually carry it, though
Umbrafer (12:14:26 AM): Hehehe
MilesMk1 (12:14:47 AM): I also pay attention to what our orks are saying to people... Sort of curious how much exaggeration happens.
Umbrafer (12:14:53 AM): *Builds a nest out of refrigerators*
MilesMk1 (12:14:58 AM): And I do collect my AK back.
EverGuard4 (12:15:04 AM): "Not much happened. At least, I know of very little."
Thematrian1 (12:15:12 AM): He's reluctant to give it up, but more reluctant to argue
Thematrian1 (12:15:24 AM): Your orks heroically fought off the yazuka to get these goods, apparently.
EverGuard4 (12:15:39 AM): EverGuard4 rolled 9 6-sided dice: 2 1 3 1 6 3 5 4 1
MilesMk1 (12:15:44 AM): And... do I have any clue what's wrong with Alex, and if she'll need immediate medical care?
EverGuard4 (12:15:50 AM): EverGuard4 rolled 9 6-sided dice: 6 5 2 4 4 2 4 4 5
MilesMk1 (12:16:19 AM): I point out that this is my rifle and I'm attached to it, but he's certainly welcome to help himself to something from the stash of weapons we liberated.
MilesMk1 (12:16:50 AM): (assuming there are no Ares Alphas with Smartlink II and recoil comp in there, anyway :) )
Thematrian1 (12:16:57 AM): (There sure weren't)
Umbrafer (12:18:54 AM): What was leader-dude carrying?
Thematrian1 (12:19:44 AM): AK-97
MilesMk1 (12:21:04 AM): So... Any do I have any clue about Alex's condition?
Thematrian1 (12:21:31 AM): jaundice, you think. Probably something to do with the narcoject, because where else would it come from?
Thematrian1 (12:21:38 AM): as for treatment, you're less sure
MilesMk1 (12:21:46 AM): Right...
MilesMk1 (12:22:19 AM): *quietly* "I think the narcojet did a number on your liver... We need to get you to a real doctor as soon as we can."
Umbrafer (12:22:54 AM): "Great. I wonder if my apartment still exists…"
MilesMk1 (12:23:36 AM): "Yes, well... I hope some idiot hasn't gotten into mine and accidentally gassed several city blocks."
Umbrafer (12:24:20 AM): "At least they'd be doing it now, as opposed to back when the news would get wind of it"
MilesMk1 (12:25:14 AM): "As soon as you've had a chance to rest a little bit, I think we need to try to track down my doctor - either that, or risk an actual emergency room. Or borrow one of their doctors... Sigrun needs one too."
Umbrafer (12:25:40 AM): "I think Sigrun needs a mage."
MilesMk1 (12:26:16 AM): "Well, I know one too..."
MilesMk1 (12:27:36 AM): "And I told her I was going to try to stop by this morning, so hopefully she stayed put and we can pick her up..."
MilesMk1 (12:28:25 AM): "Let me know when you feel up to driving again, because this *points to Alex's skin* is something we need to deal with fast."
MilesMk1 (12:29:18 AM): (though I actually need to turn in, myself... it's starting to get late, and I have a meeting at work tomorrow in the morning, and it'll be embarassing if I fall asleep...)
Thematrian1 (12:30:12 AM): (Yeah, we've got to quit here. Yay, hey, everyone's a hero)
Dragcrell (12:30:30 AM): (hehehehe ok turning the room off then)

Thematrian1 (12:30:53 AM): I'll post everyone some karma; this counts as a run. Poke me if I haven't done it by thursday
Umbrafer (12:31:14 AM): Good times. Does that mean KP refreshes?
Thematrian1 (12:31:27 AM): once you've slept, yes
MilesMk1 (12:31:58 AM): Cool. See you guys Thursday. (I'll be there this time.)
