  1. [2012-01-02 19:55:01] <Salmander> The amount of blue bodies is staggering at this point. It's hard to not step on one as they continue along the plateau
  2. [2012-01-02 19:55:20] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan's getting a little freaked out now. Shit, is this going to happen to him?
  3. [2012-01-02 19:56:21] <Salmander> "Great wings of moon, look at that!" The professor points a little ways ahead
  4. [2012-01-02 19:57:24] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan looks, with a little a hesitation.
  5. [2012-01-02 19:57:46] <Salmander> It's a pile, no, a hill of the bodies, piled up onto one another
  6. [2012-01-02 19:58:08] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan flatfaces so hard. Jesus, what the fuck.
  7. [2012-01-02 19:58:50] <Salmander> The professor jogs forward, stepping on a few bodies, before he comes to the bodies. He prods them. "This is not natural."
  8. [2012-01-02 19:59:41] <Mr_Wilt> Damn straight this isn't natural. It's a bunch of blue fucking bodies.
  9. [2012-01-02 19:59:49] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan also heads to the pile.
  10. [2012-01-02 20:00:09] <Salmander> They cover the plateau, from end to end
  11. [2012-01-02 20:01:05] <Mr_Wilt> Are they alive?
  12. [2012-01-02 20:01:34] <Salmander> They're not dead
  13. [2012-01-02 20:01:54] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan pokes a few of them.
  14. [2012-01-02 20:02:01] <Salmander> "I say, look at this Miragus." The professor is on the side of the mound, looking at something in front of him.
  15. [2012-01-02 20:03:37] <Mr_Wilt> He heads around the mound to look at whatever the professor is.
  16. [2012-01-02 20:04:32] <Salmander> It's a structure, crashed into the side. The bodies around it are torn, and sand spills out
  17. [2012-01-02 20:04:56] <Salmander> The blades, the body, it look vaguely like the wreckage of a helicopter
  18. [2012-01-02 20:05:19] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan blinks.
  19. [2012-01-02 20:05:46] <Mr_Wilt> What's the condition of it?
  20. [2012-01-02 20:05:58] </@> Tox invited Glacon into the channel.
  21. [2012-01-02 20:05:59] -->| Glacon (rkh@synIRC-87D98234.pfak.org) has joined #Desert_Outpost
  22. [2012-01-02 20:06:50] <Salmander> It's damaged beyond repair
  23. [2012-01-02 20:07:02] <Salmander> It looks to be made of the same glassy material as the Ska Rabmush
  24. [2012-01-02 20:07:13] <Salmander> It's pretty big. Probably for carrying cargo.
  25. [2012-01-02 20:11:09] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan looks sort a bit down, now. The first sign of hope and it's wrecked.
  26. [2012-01-02 20:12:38] <Salmander> "Perhaps the island is somewhere nearby."
  27. [2012-01-02 20:14:12] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan thinks of his right glove becoming a pair of binoculars.
  28. [2012-01-02 20:15:18] <Salmander> And indeed there is a pair
  29. [2012-01-02 20:15:39] <Mr_Wilt> He puts them to his face and looks out in the distance.
  30. [2012-01-02 20:16:30] <Salmander> He can see what is probably an island poking out of the mirage water along the horizon
  31. [2012-01-02 20:18:32] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan waves for the professor to come over, holding the binoculars out.
  32. [2012-01-02 20:20:36] <Salmander> The professor walks up and stands beside him. "Do you see something?"
  33. [2012-01-02 20:22:51] <Mr_Wilt> He nods, putting the binoculars up to his face.
  34. [2012-01-02 20:24:05] <Salmander> "Hmm... How do you suppose we get there?"
  35. [2012-01-02 20:24:42] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan ponders this.
  36. [2012-01-02 20:25:00] <Mr_Wilt> They could climb down the plateau, but then they'd need a boat..
  37. [2012-01-02 20:25:10] <Mr_Wilt> He looks at the wrecked helicopter.
  38. [2012-01-02 20:25:59] <Salmander> It's junked
  39. [2012-01-02 20:26:47] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan wonders if it'd float.
  40. [2012-01-02 20:27:36] <Salmander> Probably not. It's made of metal and glass
  41. [2012-01-02 20:27:45] <Mr_Wilt> Ah, fair enough.
  42. [2012-01-02 20:28:17] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan imagines his pair of binoculars becomes a pencil, and his other glove some paper.
  43. [2012-01-02 20:29:39] <Salmander> The professor watches, bemused
  44. [2012-01-02 20:31:13] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan draws a boat, and then some water, and then a boat /in/ some water.
  45. [2012-01-02 20:31:30] <Mr_Wilt> He shows the picture to the professor and shrugs, as if to say "I don't know what we can use as a boat"
  46. [2012-01-02 20:36:44] <Salmander> The professor scratches his beak. "Could you try making a boat with that fancy trick of yours?"
  47. [2012-01-02 20:39:41] <Mr_Wilt> Hm. Maybe.
  48. [2012-01-02 20:40:12] <Mr_Wilt> But they're gonna have to get down that cliff side, first. Nolan imagines two pickaxes, one with a length of rope again.
  49. [2012-01-02 20:41:10] <Salmander> The professor sighs. "Hopefully there won't be another Giganticus about."
  50. [2012-01-02 20:41:50] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan ties the rope around him and hands some length to the professor.
  51. [2012-01-02 20:42:35] <Salmander> The professor takes it
  52. [2012-01-02 20:43:29] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan begins his descent, using the pickaxes.
  53. [2012-01-02 20:44:14] <Salmander> The professor tries to keep his grip with his talons. He descends carefully.
  54. [2012-01-02 20:46:02] <Mr_Wilt> He continues on, one set at a time. Climbing down cliffs using pickaxes is a lot harder than climbing up them.
  55. [2012-01-02 20:47:13] <Salmander> It's a steep and long descent.
  56. [2012-01-02 20:48:20] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan looks down, momentarily. God dammit, that's a long fall.
  57. [2012-01-02 20:48:31] <Mr_Wilt> He takes a deep breath and continues down.
  58. [2012-01-02 20:48:36] -->| Dae (~androirc@synIRC-15CDF17A.pn.at.cox.net) has joined #Desert_Outpost
  59. [2012-01-02 20:48:53] <Salmander> "Hustle now Miragus. My grip isn't what it used to be." The professor lets out a nervous chuckle.

  62. [2012-01-02 20:49:58] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan would laugh if he wasn't *climbing down a fucking cliff*.
  63. [2012-01-02 20:50:10] <Mr_Wilt> He tries to pick up the pace a bit, though.
  64. [2012-01-02 20:51:54] <Salmander> Nolan reaches the bottom. There's no ground below him, just mirage water
  65. [2012-01-02 20:53:17] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan puts his hand in the water and imagines a boat.
  66. [2012-01-02 20:54:59] <Salmander> It takes a while. At first it's only a piece of wood, then a front, and finally it floats up to the top, and he's clutching a small paddle boat
  67. [2012-01-02 20:55:58] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan climbs on into it, imagining the two pickaxes are gloves once more. He makes sure to keep a hand on the boat.
  68. [2012-01-02 20:56:37] <Salmander> "Ah, good work Miragus." the professor falls down into the boat. It creeks a little.
  69. [2012-01-02 20:58:08] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan imagines his free hand's glove turns into a paddle!
  70. [2012-01-02 20:58:47] |<-- Dae has left irc.synirc.net (Broken pipe)
  71. [2012-01-02 20:58:56] <Salmander> He has a paddle

  73. [2012-01-02 20:59:15] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan starts rowing off toward the island.

  78. [2012-01-02 21:00:48] <Mr_Wilt> Well he damn well tries.
  79. [2012-01-02 21:01:35] <Salmander> The professor leans forward over the boat and starts slowly paddling them forward over the water
  80. [2012-01-02 21:01:56] <Salmander> It's tough when you're just bones
  81. [2012-01-02 21:02:36] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan grumbles. Man, this sucks.
  82. [2012-01-02 21:02:46] <Mr_Wilt> He lifts his hand, momentarily, just to see if the boat starts breaking apart.
  83. [2012-01-02 21:03:48] <Salmander> It disappears
  84. [2012-01-02 21:04:00] <Salmander> "Ack!" The professor falls in the water
  85. [2012-01-02 21:04:09] <Salmander> Nolan does as well
  86. [2012-01-02 21:04:10] <Mr_Wilt> GOD DAMMIT.
  87. [2012-01-02 21:04:24] <Mr_Wilt> Is the professor able to swim?
  88. [2012-01-02 21:04:49] <Salmander> He's fortunate, as bird bones float on water
  89. [2012-01-02 21:05:08] <Salmander> He begins floating away
  90. [2012-01-02 21:06:39] |<-- Daedalize has left irc.synirc.net (Quit: http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client)
  91. [2012-01-02 21:06:48] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan imagines another boat.
  92. [2012-01-02 21:07:25] <Salmander> It slowly begins forming underneath him
  93. [2012-01-02 21:07:45] <Salmander> "Miragus!" The professor is drifting away, towards the island.
  94. [2012-01-02 21:09:32] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan imagines a floatation ring attached to a rope in his other hand and tosses it off toward the professor.
  95. [2012-01-02 21:10:16] <Salmander> The professor's already too far away!
  96. [2012-01-02 21:10:30] <Salmander> He disappears into the distance
  97. [2012-01-02 21:10:48] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan is all the sad.
  98. [2012-01-02 21:11:23] <Mr_Wilt> He continues to imagine the boat, but tries to take a spin on it.
  99. [2012-01-02 21:11:26] -->| Dae2 (~androirc@synIRC-15CDF17A.pn.at.cox.net) has joined #Desert_Outpost
  100. [2012-01-02 21:11:35] <Mr_Wilt> He imagines it's a large sailing vessel, fit with a mast and a sail.
  101. [2012-01-02 21:11:57] <Salmander> It takes a good 20 minutes to form, but he finally gets his sailboat
  102. [2012-01-02 21:11:58] |<-- Dae has left irc.synirc.net (Broken pipe)
  103. [2012-01-02 21:12:20] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan sets sail, making sure to keep his hand on the goddamn boat this time.
  104. [2012-01-02 21:12:33] <Salmander> It sails off
  105. [2012-01-02 21:12:43] <Salmander> The island's still a way's off
  106. [2012-01-02 21:12:43] [INFO] There is nothing to tab-complete. Use F6 to cycle through the user list, input box and the chat output.
  107. [2012-01-02 21:13:19] <Mr_Wilt> He ponders the extent of his trick.
  108. [2012-01-02 21:13:30] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan imagines a motor appears on the back of his sailboat!
  109. [2012-01-02 21:13:46] <Salmander> A motor starts to form and then stops
  110. [2012-01-02 21:13:58] <Salmander> It's just an empty husk
  111. [2012-01-02 21:14:14] <Salmander> Nolan has no idea what goes in a motor
  112. [2012-01-02 21:14:22] <Mr_Wilt> Dammit. He does not.
  113. [2012-01-02 21:14:53] <Salmander> The wind slowly pushes him towards the island
  114. [2012-01-02 21:15:17] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan huffs, imagining the motor husk away. Don't want it weighing him down.
  115. [2012-01-02 21:15:29] <Salmander> And after 30 minutes, it finally comes into full view
  116. [2012-01-02 21:15:35] <Salmander> It's pretty big
  117. [2012-01-02 21:15:47] <Salmander> And what's that overhead?
  118. [2012-01-02 21:16:07] <Salmander> It's green, it has spinning blades, and it's a helicopter
  119. [2012-01-02 21:16:47] <Salmander> It lands on a flat portion of the one building on the island, a large metal structure with surrounding fencing
  120. [2012-01-02 21:18:40] <Mr_Wilt> Once the boat finally hits land, he imagines his gloves back.
  121. [2012-01-02 21:18:45] <Mr_Wilt> Any sign of the professor?
  122. [2012-01-02 21:18:48] <Salmander> They return
  123. [2012-01-02 21:19:01] <Salmander> Nolan is wading in the water along a beach
  124. [2012-01-02 21:19:15] <Salmander> There's a sign of scrabble in the sand, and somebody being dragged away
  125. [2012-01-02 21:19:22] <Salmander> roll perception
  126. [2012-01-02 21:19:37] <Mr_Wilt> 6df+4 This shit ain't logical.
  127. [2012-01-02 21:19:38] <Glacon> Mr_Wilt: This shit ain't logical.: 0 (6df+4=4-, 4-, 3+, 4-, 4-, 4-)
  128. [2012-01-02 21:20:28] <Salmander> Nothing
  129. [2012-01-02 21:21:07] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan grumbles. Goddammit, they took his motherfuckin' professor bro.
  130. [2012-01-02 21:21:23] <Mr_Wilt> That was his Avian American brother, right there.
  131. [2012-01-02 21:21:46] <Mr_Wilt> Well, he ain't standing for this shit. Does Nolan see the path he was dragged?
  132. [2012-01-02 21:22:46] <Salmander> The island is oddly lush for being in the middle of a mirage island. Palm trees and ferns sprout up everywhere, surrounding the compound in the center of the island. The tracks on the sand end abruptly as the sand changes to soil
  133. [2012-01-02 21:24:18] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan imagines his right glove is a machete. There isn't really anywhere else they can take the professor, so he heads off toward the compound.
  134. [2012-01-02 21:24:38] <Mr_Wilt> He uses the machete to cut away foliage that blocks his path.
  135. [2012-01-02 21:24:52] <Salmander> A net falls on Nolan
  136. [2012-01-02 21:25:21] <Salmander> A few figures jump from the trees around and secure it silently
  137. [2012-01-02 21:25:41] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan tries to shout at them, only to spray sand everywhere.
  138. [2012-01-02 21:26:35] <Salmander> They're all blue, and are wearing camouflage armor to cover themselves. Their tails are folded in, but Nolan can see what they are. Upright, humanoid peacocks.
  139. [2012-01-02 21:27:11] <Salmander> One steps forward and looks at Nolan, holding his head up from beneath the net. "Hmmm, never seen this type before."
  140. [2012-01-02 21:28:57] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan grumbles. Okay, he can work with this.
  141. [2012-01-02 21:29:13] <Mr_Wilt> If they bring him to the compound, he can find the professor quicker.
  142. [2012-01-02 21:29:51] <Salmander> Another one scratches its beak. "Should we harvest it first?"
  143. [2012-01-02 21:30:21] <Salmander> "No, I think research might be interested in this, along with that bunch of bones we found."
  144. [2012-01-02 21:30:35] <Mr_Wilt> Fuck yes. Nolan's definitely letting them take him.
  145. [2012-01-02 21:31:35] <Salmander> "He's got a sword of some kind on him."
  146. [2012-01-02 21:33:14] <Mr_Wilt> Oh. Dammit.
  147. [2012-01-02 21:33:36] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan imagines it's a glove again.
  148. [2012-01-02 21:33:45] <Salmander> "It's just somea the water. Watch this." The peacock takes out a bag and pours sand on Nolan's hands. He feels the gloves dissolve.
  149. [2012-01-02 21:34:12] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan looks up at him.
  150. [2012-01-02 21:34:14] <Mr_Wilt> You /asshole/.
  151. [2012-01-02 21:34:49] <Salmander> "There, now he can't cut the net." The peacocks begin dragging him away. "Hmm, just in case, knock him out."

  156. [2012-01-02 21:35:39] <Salmander> Nolan takes quite a few hist to the head before he finally blacks out
  157. [2012-01-02 21:36:06] <Salmander> He wakes up in a cell
  158. [2012-01-02 21:36:18] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan blinks a few times, rubbing his head.
  159. [2012-01-02 21:36:19] <Salmander> Concrete. There's a metal door with bars.
  160. [2012-01-02 21:36:22] <Mr_Wilt> Damn, that /hurt/.
  161. [2012-01-02 21:37:00] <Salmander> "I will not tolerate this kind of treatment!" The professor!
  162. [2012-01-02 21:37:50] <Mr_Wilt> Is he in the cell with him?
  163. [2012-01-02 21:38:03] <Salmander> No
  164. [2012-01-02 21:38:25] <Salmander> It's an echoed noise. Probably coming from far away
  165. [2012-01-02 21:38:46] <Mr_Wilt> Damn. Nolan pushes himself up.
  166. [2012-01-02 21:39:05] <Salmander> It's not a very big cell
  167. [2012-01-02 21:40:01] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan looks around it. Is there a toilet?
  168. [2012-01-02 21:40:12] <Salmander> Nope
  169. [2012-01-02 21:41:38] <Mr_Wilt> Man. These guys are cruel.

  172. [2012-01-02 21:43:28] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan looks out of it. What can he see?
  173. [2012-01-02 21:44:07] <Salmander> He sees the foliage of the island, a fence, and the sea
  174. [2012-01-02 21:44:53] <Mr_Wilt> He turns and looks at the rest of his cell. Anything of note?
  175. [2012-01-02 21:46:08] <Salmander> Nope
  176. [2012-01-02 21:47:14] <Mr_Wilt> Dammit. Not much he can do.
  177. [2012-01-02 21:47:20] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan tests the cell bars.
  178. [2012-01-02 21:47:54] <Salmander> They're strong
  179. [2012-01-02 21:48:24] <Salmander> It's a metal door, there's just a small window with bars
  180. [2012-01-02 21:49:12] <Mr_Wilt> Oh, fair enough.
  181. [2012-01-02 21:49:23] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan's out of ideas here.
  182. [2012-01-02 21:49:26] <Mr_Wilt> He knocks on the metal door.
  183. [2012-01-02 21:50:43] <Salmander> There's a botu a 30 second wait, then the head of a peacock looks in. "Whaddya want?"
  184. [2012-01-02 21:51:26] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan mimes taking a drink from a cup.
  185. [2012-01-02 21:53:21] <Salmander> "Ya don't need to drink, Soulsucked."
  186. [2012-01-02 21:53:34] <Mr_Wilt> Huh. Fancy word.
  187. [2012-01-02 21:53:52] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan puts his hands together, groveling.
  188. [2012-01-02 21:54:11] <Mr_Wilt> Don't be heartless! He has fucking sand in his mouth constantly!
  189. [2012-01-02 21:57:02] <Salmander> "Yeah, next time you'll be asking for the key to the cell."

  220. [2012-01-02 22:12:53] <Salmander> There would probably have to be a bit of rain, or else all this foliage wouldn't be able to grow

  225. [2012-01-02 22:19:02] <Salmander> The sound of rain comes closer

  231. [2012-01-02 22:20:49] <Salmander> He can hear it hitting the compound's roof

  233. [2012-01-02 22:22:23] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan runs over to the window and sticks his hand out, imagining a glove.
  234. [2012-01-02 22:23:53] <Salmander> A glove forms. "I said hold still!" Roll pdef!

  237. [2012-01-02 22:24:41] <Salmander> He is able to step aside as the spear just forward, nearly impaling him
  238. [2012-01-02 22:25:07] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan pulls his hand backs in and imagines it's a sledgehammer.
  239. [2012-01-02 22:26:24] <Salmander> A sledgehammer forms, albeit a shrimpy one
  240. [2012-01-02 22:26:53] <Mr_Wilt> It's good enough for him. Nolan swings it at the peacock.

  258. [2012-01-02 22:33:15] <Salmander> The peacock falls to the ground, screaming and clutching its bashed up leg
  259. [2012-01-02 22:33:54] <Mr_Wilt> He imagines the sledgehammer is a bowl and sticks it out the window to gather more rain.
  260. [2012-01-02 22:34:08] <Salmander> More rain is gathered after a few minutes
  261. [2012-01-02 22:34:35] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan pulls it back in and uses the accumulated rain to make a pair of gloves of the same strength as before.
  262. [2012-01-02 22:34:39] <Mr_Wilt> Or at least close, anyways.
  263. [2012-01-02 22:35:52] <Salmander> He turns around just in time to see another guard run off
  264. [2012-01-02 22:37:15] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan walks out of his cell, using both gloves to make a nice, sturdy sledgehammer.
  265. [2012-01-02 22:37:51] <Salmander> The guard disappears down a stairwell

  275. [2012-01-02 22:41:21] <Salmander> No, sign. He's in the center of the hallway. There's a stairwell on either end.

  279. [2012-01-02 22:43:14] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan goes to each one, looking through.
  280. [2012-01-02 22:44:30] <Salmander> It's empty, possibly evacuated. What he does see is a wooden chair with some sort of glass laser pointing at it

  284. [2012-01-02 22:45:34] <Salmander> Nolan can hear footsteps coming down the stairwell he just came from. There's another one down the hall, but it's too far.
  285. [2012-01-02 22:46:30] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan runs toward the glass laser!
  286. [2012-01-02 22:48:04] <Salmander> There's an assortment of levers on it, but he can't decipher what goes where. Behind the laser are several rows of desks, some chairs, and a blue dummy.
  287. [2012-01-02 22:49:26] <Mr_Wilt> Can Nolan turn the laser manually?
  288. [2012-01-02 22:50:19] <Salmander> He can
  289. [2012-01-02 22:50:54] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan changes the sledgehammer into gloves once more and turns the laser toward the staircase.
  290. [2012-01-02 22:51:08] <Mr_Wilt> He proceeds to flick around a various assortment of levers.
  291. [2012-01-02 22:51:12] <Salmander> The peacocks begin running down

  294. [2012-01-02 22:51:41] <Salmander> It hits the laser!

  296. [2012-01-02 22:51:50] <Salmander> It flashes red!
  297. [2012-01-02 22:52:03] <Salmander> The peacocks see this, scream, and begin running back upstairs
  298. [2012-01-02 22:52:26] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan figures that's probably a bad thing. He starts heading for the opposite exit!

  302. [2012-01-02 22:55:35] <Salmander> He manages to reach the stairwell in time and dives down it. He jumps in slow motion as the laser explodes - in slow motion. The mirage water forms sunglasses on his head momentarily. Then it goes back to his hands and he's half way down the stairwell. The sound of fire can be heard above.
  303. [2012-01-02 22:56:56] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan doesn't even turn around to look at that fucking explosion.
  304. [2012-01-02 22:57:00] <Mr_Wilt> He continues to run down the stairwell.

  312. [2012-01-02 22:59:35] <Mr_Wilt> He swings for a peacock!

  319. [2012-01-02 23:04:12] <Salmander> The hammer makes an awful crack as it impacts the peacock's skull. The peacock collapses to the ground.
  320. [2012-01-02 23:04:27] <Salmander> "Ah, miragus, there you are!"
  321. [2012-01-02 23:04:38] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan shudders. Ugh, he didn't mean to hit him that hard.
  322. [2012-01-02 23:04:53] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan waves at the professor. Any more peacocks?
  323. [2012-01-02 23:05:28] <Salmander> There are a few up front, but the professor takes them all out by spinning his arms like a top then slamming into them like bowling pins
  324. [2012-01-02 23:06:07] <Mr_Wilt> Shit, why doesn't the Foundation have a suit like that?
  325. [2012-01-02 23:06:32] <Salmander> The professor then presses a few buttons and gets out. "I'm afraid that's as far as the cord goes."
  326. [2012-01-02 23:07:19] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan examines the suit a bit, and then attempts to recreate it using his sledgehammer.
  327. [2012-01-02 23:07:40] <Salmander> He makes the leg, then runs out of water
  328. [2012-01-02 23:07:55] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan frowns. Eh, worth a shot. Back to gloves they go.
  329. [2012-01-02 23:08:35] <Salmander> "The flying machine is upstairs, but I heard an explosion upstairs. I do not think it's safe."
  330. [2012-01-02 23:09:05] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan grins. He flashes the professor a thumbs up and then looks around for another exit.
  331. [2012-01-02 23:09:30] <Salmander> There's a pair of doors that lead outside. They're ajar.
  332. [2012-01-02 23:10:21] <Mr_Wilt> He runs for them!
  333. [2012-01-02 23:11:26] <Salmander> The professor follows. They're now outside, in the rain.
  334. [2012-01-02 23:12:06] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan likes where this is going.
  335. [2012-01-02 23:12:13] <Salmander> There's another outer stairwell leading to the top of the compound
  336. [2012-01-02 23:12:25] <Salmander> Like a fire escape
  337. [2012-01-02 23:12:33] <Mr_Wilt> He runs over toward the stairwell and heads up it!
  338. [2012-01-02 23:13:25] <Salmander> There's a steady CLACK CLACK as the Professor follows.
  339. [2012-01-02 23:14:26] <Salmander> As they round the second floor there's a few peacocks in battle regalia, spears pointed at the two
  340. [2012-01-02 23:15:24] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan whips out the sledgehammer and swings!

  342. [2012-01-02 23:15:42] <Glacon> Mr_Wilt: OUT OF THE WAY, BOYS.: 6 (6df+7=4-, 3+, 0, 4-, 4-, 3+)
  343. [2012-01-02 23:15:53] <Salmander> With the amount of rain falling, the sledgehammer gradually increases in size as he swings it
  344. [2012-01-02 23:16:11] <Mr_Wilt> Fucking awesome.
  345. [2012-01-02 23:16:14] <Salmander> Eventually it becomes big enough that he manages to knock them all off in one swoop
  346. [2012-01-02 23:16:47] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan makes it some gloves again, as he can't really carry around that big of a sledgehammer.
  347. [2012-01-02 23:16:50] <Mr_Wilt> He continues back up!
  348. [2012-01-02 23:17:42] <Salmander> The stairwell leads into a hallway right beneath the roof
  349. [2012-01-02 23:18:10] <Mr_Wilt> Dammit!
  350. [2012-01-02 23:18:37] <Salmander> "C'mon, hup-two Miragus!" The professor runs beside him
  351. [2012-01-02 23:19:07] <Mr_Wilt> He runs down the hallway, looking around for a way up!
  352. [2012-01-02 23:19:45] <Salmander> As he enters he's hit with a blast of sand
  353. [2012-01-02 23:19:50] <Salmander> The hammer dissolves
  354. [2012-01-02 23:19:57] <Salmander> The doors slam behind him
  355. [2012-01-02 23:20:05] <Mr_Wilt> Fuck!
  356. [2012-01-02 23:20:11] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan looks all the mad.
  357. [2012-01-02 23:20:16] <Salmander> Two peacocks stand at either door, spears pointed.
  358. [2012-01-02 23:20:26] <Salmander> "Oh dear." The professor stays close to Nolan
  359. [2012-01-02 23:20:50] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan cracks his knuckles.
  360. [2012-01-02 23:21:17] <Salmander> "So, you're the Soulsucked everyone's talking about." The voice is a low, shady one. It's coming from the other side of the hall.
  361. [2012-01-02 23:21:42] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan shrugs. Guess so.
  362. [2012-01-02 23:21:55] <Mr_Wilt> He turns around to look at the source of the voice.
  363. [2012-01-02 23:22:31] <Salmander> Out from one of the doors steps a peacock in a black robe. Unlike the others, his tail is displayed, showing off a set of feather patterned in black and white stripes.
  364. [2012-01-02 23:23:21] <Salmander> In a claw he holds a smaller laser. A cord runs from it into the doorway.
  365. [2012-01-02 23:24:08] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan blinks.
  366. [2012-01-02 23:24:52] <Salmander> "You're an interesting specimen. I've never see you before. You're featherless, but no worm. I wonder where the Sandsucker called you from."
  367. [2012-01-02 23:25:03] <Salmander> "But no matter, it's time we extract you."
  368. [2012-01-02 23:25:11] <Salmander> He points the laser at Nolan.
  369. [2012-01-02 23:25:25] <Salmander> Think fast!
  370. [2012-01-02 23:27:04] <Salmander> What do, Nolan?
  371. [2012-01-02 23:27:23] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan lifts up his trusty skeleton professor friend and fucking throws him at the goddamn peacock with the laser.
  372. [2012-01-02 23:28:49] <Mr_Wilt> 6df+10 Tagging Bad Habits, I HAVEN'T SMOKED OR DRANK COFFEE IN FUCKING FOREVER AND I JUST WANT TO GO HOME.
  373. [2012-01-02 23:28:50] <Glacon> Mr_Wilt: Tagging Bad Habits, I HAVEN'T SMOKED OR DRANK COFFEE IN FUCKING FOREVER AND I JUST WANT TO GO HOME.: 10 (6df+10=4-, 0, 0, 3+, 0, 0)
  374. [2012-01-02 23:30:04] <Salmander> "Aaaaagh!" the professor is sent sailing through the air. He flies at the peacock, clawing him down. The laser is knocked to the ground and goes off, hitting one of the guard's spears. It's set on fire.
  375. [2012-01-02 23:31:10] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan charges at them, swinging a punch at the guard without the flaming spear.
  376. [2012-01-02 23:31:15] <Mr_Wilt> 6df+7 HOO-AAH.
  377. [2012-01-02 23:31:16] <Glacon> Mr_Wilt: HOO-AAH.: 9 (6df+7=0, 0, 3+, 3+, 0, 0)
  378. [2012-01-02 23:32:28] <Salmander> The guard is taken by surprise and is punched against the wall. He collapses to the ground. The other screams in pain and drops his spear, blowing on his burning claws.
  379. [2012-01-02 23:33:28] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan picks up the knocked out guard's spear and stabs at the second!
  380. [2012-01-02 23:33:31] <Mr_Wilt> 6df+7
  381. [2012-01-02 23:33:32] <Glacon> Mr_Wilt: 9 (6df+7=3+, 4-, 3+, 3+, 4-, 3+)
  382. [2012-01-02 23:34:11] <Salmander> He's knocked to the ground. "Oof." He chooses to ignore Nolan and instead run outside to cool his talons in the rain.
  383. [2012-01-02 23:34:45] <Salmander> Meanwhile the black peacock manages to shove off the Professor and get back in the room the laser came from, closing the door
  384. [2012-01-02 23:35:12] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan tries the door. Is it locked?
  385. [2012-01-02 23:35:28] <Salmander> It is indeed
  386. [2012-01-02 23:36:01] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan runs for the opposite door, heading outside. Are there guards?
  387. [2012-01-02 23:36:34] <Salmander> No, it seems everything else is empty
  388. [2012-01-02 23:36:51] <Salmander> The chopper waits on the roof, ready to go
  389. [2012-01-02 23:37:12] <Mr_Wilt> Excellent. Nolan uses the rain to make a nice, heavy sledgehammer.
  390. [2012-01-02 23:37:47] <Salmander> That was a good idea,a s out from behind the chopper steps something big
  391. [2012-01-02 23:38:21] <Mr_Wilt> Shit. What is it?
  392. [2012-01-02 23:39:13] <Salmander> It's an oversized ostrich. There's a metal collar around its neck, connected to a chain. Peacocks follow it out, holding onto the chain
  393. [2012-01-02 23:40:18] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan looks down at his sledgehammer. Is it getting bigger?
  394. [2012-01-02 23:40:25] <Salmander> It is, gradually
  395. [2012-01-02 23:40:40] <Mr_Wilt> Excellent.
  396. [2012-01-02 23:40:46] <Salmander> It's worrying, however, eventually it will reach a mass too large for Nolan to heft.
  397. [2012-01-02 23:41:05] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan will have to act now, then!
  398. [2012-01-02 23:41:16] <Mr_Wilt> He charges at the ostrich and swings!
  399. [2012-01-02 23:41:25] <Salmander> The ostrich squawk and lunges at him, the peacocks pulled along
  400. [2012-01-02 23:41:26] <Mr_Wilt> 6df+11 Tagging Bad Habits
  401. [2012-01-02 23:41:27] <Glacon> Mr_Wilt: Tagging Bad Habits: 10 (6df+11=4-, 0, 4-, 3+, 3+, 4-)
  402. [2012-01-02 23:41:37] <Salmander> Oof, uppercut. The ostrich reels back
  403. [2012-01-02 23:41:46] <Salmander> It tilts its head and then pecks
  404. [2012-01-02 23:41:55] <Salmander> 6df+7 Right at the chest. Deja vu.
  405. [2012-01-02 23:41:56] <Glacon> Salmander: Right at the chest. Deja vu.: 4 (6df+7=4-, 4-, 4-, 0, 0, 0)
  406. [2012-01-02 23:42:03] <Mr_Wilt> 6df+7 NOT THIS TIME
  407. [2012-01-02 23:42:04] <Glacon> Mr_Wilt: NOT THIS TIME: 5 (6df+7=4-, 4-, 4-, 3+, 3+, 4-)
  408. [2012-01-02 23:43:16] <Salmander> It head injury must have made it dizzy, as it pecks in the wrong place.
  409. [2012-01-02 23:43:30] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan tries to shout "Not this time!", only to be greeted by sand falling from his mouth.
  410. [2012-01-02 23:43:38] <Mr_Wilt> He swings for another hit!
  411. [2012-01-02 23:43:47] <Mr_Wilt> 6df+11 Final AP, Bad Habits
  412. [2012-01-02 23:43:48] <Glacon> Mr_Wilt: Final AP, Bad Habits: 10 (6df+11=3+, 0, 4-, 0, 4-, 0)
  413. [2012-01-02 23:44:05] <Salmander> Right in the neck. The ostrich feels it and shrieks.
  414. [2012-01-02 23:44:14] <Salmander> 6df+7 it kicks him with its powerful legs
  415. [2012-01-02 23:44:15] <Glacon> Salmander: it kicks him with its powerful legs: 7 (6df+7=4-, 4-, 0, 3+, 3+, 0)
  416. [2012-01-02 23:44:22] <Mr_Wilt> 6df+7 SHIT
  417. [2012-01-02 23:44:22] <Glacon> Mr_Wilt: SHIT: 5 (6df+7=0, 0, 0, 4-, 4-, 0)
  418. [2012-01-02 23:44:45] <Salmander> Oof, right in the chest. -1 body.
  419. [2012-01-02 23:45:04] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan seems enraged by this! Why do they always go for the fucking chest?
  420. [2012-01-02 23:45:20] <Mr_Wilt> He swings his now larger sledgehammer.
  421. [2012-01-02 23:45:24] <Mr_Wilt> 6df+7
  422. [2012-01-02 23:45:25] <Glacon> Mr_Wilt: 9 (6df+7=0, 3+, 3+, 3+, 0, 4-)
  423. [2012-01-02 23:45:50] <Salmander> He hits its knees, and it stumbles, falling over
  424. [2012-01-02 23:45:55] <Salmander> 6df+7 It pecks at his legs
  425. [2012-01-02 23:45:56] <Glacon> Salmander: It pecks at his legs: 7 (6df+7=4-, 3+, 4-, 0, 0, 3+)
  426. [2012-01-02 23:46:13] <Mr_Wilt> 6df+7
  427. [2012-01-02 23:46:14] <Glacon> Mr_Wilt: 8 (6df+7=0, 0, 3+, 0, 0, 0)
  428. [2012-01-02 23:47:04] <Salmander> Nolan is able to jump over the peck
  429. [2012-01-02 23:47:52] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan takes advantage of it being toppled over. He imagines the incredibly hefty sledgehammer is now a slightly less hefty execution axe.
  430. [2012-01-02 23:48:28] <Salmander> The professor covers his beak.
  431. [2012-01-02 23:48:50] <Mr_Wilt> He brings it down on the ostrich's neck.
  432. [2012-01-02 23:48:54] <Mr_Wilt> 6df+7
  433. [2012-01-02 23:48:55] <Glacon> Mr_Wilt: 8 (6df+7=0, 3+, 4-, 4-, 3+, 3+)
  434. [2012-01-02 23:49:06] <Salmander> He decapitates the ostrich.
  435. [2012-01-02 23:49:19] <Salmander> Both peacocks squeak. On flees. The other barfs.

  438. [2012-01-02 23:49:50] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan stares down the other peacock. He points at his eyes with a free hand, and then points at the peacock.
  439. [2012-01-02 23:50:04] <Salmander> The peacock shrieks and runs away, falling off teh roof

  447. [2012-01-02 23:54:02] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan turns his large axe into gloves once more and flashes the professor a thumbs up.

  449. [2012-01-02 23:55:13] <Salmander> The professor clacks his beak. "Let's depart."
  450. [2012-01-02 23:55:38] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan nods, boarding the helicopter.
  451. [2012-01-02 23:56:41] <Salmander> The professor gets aboard as well. Inside is two seats, behind a large green window. "What an intriguing machine." The professor pulls a few levers and suddenly the helicopter turns on, a display coming on on the window.
  452. [2012-01-02 23:57:15] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan looks at the display. Is there a map?
  453. [2012-01-02 23:57:42] <Salmander> There is. It seems pretty up-to-date.
  454. [2012-01-02 23:57:54] <Salmander> "What a horrid place."
  455. [2012-01-02 23:58:13] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan points at the location where he left the Ska Rabmush
  456. [2012-01-02 23:59:21] <Salmander> "Ah, right, let's head there." The professor clacks a few more buttons then points to the spot as well. There's a loud whirring noise as the helicopter lifts off.
  457. [2012-01-02 23:59:48] <Salmander> "You are lucky they did not use that machine on you, Miragus. It would have made you lifeless like those other bodies along the plateau."
  458. [2012-01-03 00:00:48] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan takes a deep breath. Wow.
  459. [2012-01-03 00:02:04] <Salmander> "I suppose that's what they use these flying machines for. So that they can take the bodies to the plateau. They most likely clog up the water or somesuch."
  460. [2012-01-03 00:02:42] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan points down at the facility and then shrugs, as if to ask why it's there.
  461. [2012-01-03 00:03:25] <Salmander> "Who knows. Maybe they use what they take from, er, Soulsucked like yourself to power something."
  462. [2012-01-03 00:04:34] <Mr_Wilt> He'll have to come back one day, then, when he's fixed up.
  463. [2012-01-03 00:05:13] <Salmander> "I still must wonder why the peacocks have not used these travel over the plateau."
  464. [2012-01-03 00:06:35] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan shrugs. Who knows?
  465. [2012-01-03 00:06:50] <Salmander> "That crashed machine worries me."
  466. [2012-01-03 00:07:14] <Mr_Wilt> He supposes they'll get to that problem when they do.
  467. [2012-01-03 00:08:03] <Salmander> As they approach the plateau, the pile of blue bodies comes into view again
  468. [2012-01-03 00:08:43] <Salmander> The wreckage of the other ship is visible.
  469. [2012-01-03 00:10:51] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan peers down at it.
  470. [2012-01-03 00:11:07] <Salmander> From this angle you can see gigantic claw marks.
  471. [2012-01-03 00:11:45] <Salmander> "Miragus, look at that!" The professor is pointing towards the general direction of the tower, where they came from.
  472. [2012-01-03 00:12:07] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan flatfaces so hard at the claw marks, but pulls his view up to where the professor is pointing.
  473. [2012-01-03 00:12:31] <Salmander> There's something big and brown flying towards them, flapping its wings
  474. [2012-01-03 00:12:44] <Salmander> "I do believe that is Avius Giganticus. Remember?"
  475. [2012-01-03 00:13:11] <Mr_Wilt> Fuck. It's a giant fucking bird, isn't it?
  476. [2012-01-03 00:13:31] <Salmander> "Oh dear, I think it may be coming towards us."
  477. [2012-01-03 00:13:38] <Salmander> Indeed, it shrieks
  478. [2012-01-03 00:13:43] <Salmander> "PEACOCK SCUM!"
  479. [2012-01-03 00:13:59] <Mr_Wilt> Oh shit. Oh shit. Oh shit.
  480. [2012-01-03 00:14:28] <Salmander> It's flying much faster than the chopper
  481. [2012-01-03 00:14:38] <Salmander> "Oh dear, brace yourself!"
  482. [2012-01-03 00:14:38] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan looks around at the controls. Oh god, is there a fucking speaker function or something?
  483. [2012-01-03 00:14:54] <Salmander> It's 2 times as big as the chopper
  484. [2012-01-03 00:15:08] <Salmander> It spreads its wings, its talons displayed
  485. [2012-01-03 00:15:21] <Salmander> Not that Nolan can see
  486. [2012-01-03 00:15:45] <Mr_Wilt> Fuck. Fuck. A weapon system?
  487. [2012-01-03 00:16:03] <Salmander> Nope
  488. [2012-01-03 00:16:10] <Salmander> CLUNK
  489. [2012-01-03 00:16:19] <Salmander> It grabs onto the chopper with its thick talons
  490. [2012-01-03 00:16:36] <Mr_Wilt> Okay. Fuck it. This isn't worth it.
  491. [2012-01-03 00:16:37] <Salmander> It's on Nolan's side
  492. [2012-01-03 00:17:05] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan climbs over the professor, throwing the door open.
  493. [2012-01-03 00:17:37] <Mr_Wilt> He tries to make a parachute with his gloves.
  494. [2012-01-03 00:18:08] <Salmander> "Ack!" The professor falls out with Nolan as the chopper becomes vertical
  495. [2012-01-03 00:18:19] <Salmander> They're right over the pile of bodies
  496. [2012-01-03 00:18:36] <Mr_Wilt> Come on, parachute!
  497. [2012-01-03 00:18:40] <Salmander> Nolan cannot make a parachute in time, but it's a relatively soft landing
  498. [2012-01-03 00:19:05] <Salmander> Overhead, the giganticus throws the chopper away. It crashes into the sea and sinks.
  499. [2012-01-03 00:19:09] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan oofs as he falls into the bodies. Well, okay, at least they're alive.
  500. [2012-01-03 00:19:15] <Mr_Wilt> All that work, for nothing, though..
  501. [2012-01-03 00:19:41] <Salmander> "COME BACK HERE!" It begins to descend towards Nolan and the professor
  502. [2012-01-03 00:20:22] <Salmander> You can see now it has some kind of adorned helmet covering its head

  505. [2012-01-03 00:21:23] <Salmander> But that doesn't stop it from charging at Nolan
  506. [2012-01-03 00:21:57] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan imagines a giant shield, just in case he can't jump away in time!
  507. [2012-01-03 00:22:44] <Salmander> It hits the shield
  508. [2012-01-03 00:22:49] <Salmander> GOOONG
  509. [2012-01-03 00:22:56] <Salmander> Nolan's thrown back
  510. [2012-01-03 00:23:14] <Salmander> The bird falls back, landing on its talons. It's dazed.
  511. [2012-01-03 00:23:27] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan pushes himself up. Fuck, that hurt.
  512. [2012-01-03 00:23:41] <Mr_Wilt> But he has to act! He turns the shield into a crowbar and charges at the bird!
  513. [2012-01-03 00:24:08] <Salmander> The bird is too dazed to react
  514. [2012-01-03 00:24:59] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan sticks the crowbar under the helmet and starts pulling!

  519. [2012-01-03 00:26:28] <Salmander> The bird shakes its head, knocking Nolan off
  520. [2012-01-03 00:26:45] <Salmander> "INTRUDERS OF THE PLATEAU!"

  525. [2012-01-03 00:27:44] <Salmander> It flies over him
  526. [2012-01-03 00:28:36] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan prepares another giant shield for when it loops back!
  527. [2012-01-03 00:29:12] <Salmander> The body flies over him, the Avius Giganticus is still on the mound
  528. [2012-01-03 00:31:30] <Salmander> Nolan can still act
  529. [2012-01-03 00:31:34] <Mr_Wilt> Ah! Alright, then.
  530. [2012-01-03 00:31:56] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan changes the shield into his sledgehammer and charges at the bird, swinging for its helmet.

  550. [2012-01-03 00:35:43] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan turns the crowbar back into a sledge, but doesn't attack.
  551. [2012-01-03 00:35:45] <Mr_Wilt> Just in case.
  552. [2012-01-03 00:36:00] <Salmander> It shakes its head
  553. [2012-01-03 00:36:12] <Salmander> And opens its beak wide, sighing
  554. [2012-01-03 00:36:21] <Salmander> "Ah, free at last."
  555. [2012-01-03 00:36:30] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan glares at it.
  556. [2012-01-03 00:36:39] <Mr_Wilt> He points at the mirage sea.
  557. [2012-01-03 00:36:46] <Mr_Wilt> He makes sure it knows he threw his fucking helicopter.
  558. [2012-01-03 00:38:49] <Salmander> "Hmm, yes, sorry about that. I was spell bound to destroy any intruders from the Peacock side."
  559. [2012-01-03 00:40:00] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan changes the sledge to his gloves throws his hands up. How exactly is this bird going to fix this?
  560. [2012-01-03 00:40:38] <Salmander> "Excuse me, er, Giganticus, but you destroyed our method of travel."
  561. [2012-01-03 00:40:58] <Salmander> "Oh. Oh dear." The bird sighs.
  562. [2012-01-03 00:41:06] <Salmander> "I'm sorry, I'm not usually like this."

  565. [2012-01-03 00:43:09] <Salmander> "Hmm..." It looks at its talon, then at Nolan. "You do not look that heavy. I suppose I could carry you."
  566. [2012-01-03 00:44:00] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan imagines his right glove is now the map from the helicopter.
  567. [2012-01-03 00:44:32] <Salmander> It's kind of sketchy, but he can make it a little higher than 8-year-old quality.
  568. [2012-01-03 00:45:23] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan doesn't really give a fuck. He shows it to the Giganticus and points at where the Ska Rabmush should be.
  569. [2012-01-03 00:46:11] <Salmander> "Ah, an easy flight. Only an hour. Easy repayment for freeing me."
  570. [2012-01-03 00:46:46] <Salmander> Without a further word, it suddenly swoops up Nolan and the Professor in either talon and flies off.

  572. [2012-01-03 00:48:42] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan watches as the landscape flashes by, turning his map back into a glove!
  573. [2012-01-03 00:49:13] <Salmander> "Ah, how exciting! Flying in the claws of an Avius Giganticus!" the professor is giddy.
  574. [2012-01-03 00:49:44] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan imagines the helicopter is more comfortable, but eh.
  575. [2012-01-03 00:51:43] <Salmander> The professor is silent for a while, then, "Hmm, Miragus, I don't mean to pry, but I've been wondering for quite some time if you possess a significant other of some kind."
  576. [2012-01-03 00:51:59] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan blinks.
  577. [2012-01-03 00:52:27] <Mr_Wilt> Ah, Eva. Man, he misses the shit out of her.
  578. [2012-01-03 00:52:29] <Mr_Wilt> He nods.
  579. [2012-01-03 00:53:12] <Salmander> "Perhaps you could use your fancy tricks to show me the pretty lass? I'd like to see the female of your species."
  580. [2012-01-03 00:53:55] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan imagines a large photo of Eva.
  581. [2012-01-03 00:54:17] <Salmander> It seems Nolan is knowledgeable enough of Eva's body that the image comes out pretty clear.
  582. [2012-01-03 00:54:41] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan shows it to the professor.
  583. [2012-01-03 00:54:57] <Salmander> "Hmmm... Her lack of beak and fat legs are unappealing to me, but I am sure among your species she is the prettiest."
  584. [2012-01-03 00:55:14] <Mr_Wilt> He nods, smiling.
  585. [2012-01-03 00:55:40] <Salmander> "Hopefully your doppleganger has not taken advantage of this."
  586. [2012-01-03 00:56:20] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan's smile suddenly dies.
  587. [2012-01-03 00:56:27] <Mr_Wilt> Holy shit. Why didn't he think of that?
  588. [2012-01-03 00:56:46] <Salmander> THe professor notices Nolan's expression. "We should hurry."
  589. [2012-01-03 00:57:05] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan nods.
  590. [2012-01-03 00:57:12] <Salmander> He pats the bird's talons. "EXcuse me, do you mind hurrying? We're in a bit of a hurry!"
  591. [2012-01-03 00:57:30] <Salmander> "Oh, sure." The bird moves its wings in and starts flying much faster.
  592. [2012-01-03 00:59:21] <Mr_Wilt> Nolan looks at the picture for a little bit, then turns it back into a glove.
