  1. Nov 09 21:11:24 <Echo> Jason shows up in short order, pulling his gear on and awkwardly carrying Alice's
  2. Nov 09 21:11:40 <tretter> Ross jogs to the wherever everyone else is going
  3. Nov 09 21:11:48 <Maddy> "Gimme that you."
  4. Nov 09 21:11:56 <Wogglebug> Arthur arrives, looking around to see who else is there. It's been a while since he went into the pool. Arthur's a pro at shirking work.
  5. Nov 09 21:12:06 <Strifer> Rick shows up shortly afterwards, carrying a pint of annoyingly frozen ice cream.
  6. Nov 09 21:12:13 <Echo> He drops the gear beside hear, and finishes pulling on his own balaclava and helmet.
  7. Nov 09 21:12:13 <tretter> There are so many people I don't know here.
  8. Nov 09 21:12:18 <tretter> *""
  9. Nov 09 21:12:26 <tretter> "Hold me, Arthur."
  10. Nov 09 21:12:27 <Gara> Loren shows up. "Wait. Ross. You're not dead?"
  11. Nov 09 21:12:34 <Strifer> "Evening, everyone else."
  12. Nov 09 21:12:35 <Gara> "How aren't you did?"
  13. Nov 09 21:12:36 <tretter> "Maybe I am."
  14. Nov 09 21:12:43 <Gara> "... Oh fuck the crazy starts."
  15. Nov 09 21:12:47 <Maddy> Alice starts gearing up, turning from a doctor into a mini Marine.
  16. Nov 09 21:12:52 <Wogglebug> Arthur punches Ross.
  17. Nov 09 21:12:56 <tretter> "We're at the Red-Fucking-Pool. Anything can happen"
  18. Nov 09 21:12:59 <Strifer> Rick realizes that he forgot the spoon for the ice cream. He frowns.
  19. Nov 09 21:13:01 <Wogglebug> Right in the gut
  20. Nov 09 21:13:11 <tretter> Ross takes it
  21. Nov 09 21:13:15 <Wogglebug> Does Ross explode?
  22. Nov 09 21:13:19 <tretter> Like a little girl.
  23. Nov 09 21:13:22 * DocLowell (Mibbit@synIRC-10831EDD.lightspeed.clmboh.sbcglobal.net) has joined #redpool
  24. Nov 09 21:13:29 <tretter> He falls to the gorund and sibs for a few seconds
  25. Nov 09 21:13:30 <Strifer> "We get out of the sub and it's just socks. A pile of Red Socks around the sub and mountains of red socks everywhere else."
  26. Nov 09 21:13:30 <Wogglebug> "Damn. Not actually a ghost."
  27. Nov 09 21:13:45 <Gara> Loren looks at Ross.
  28. Nov 09 21:13:50 <Echo> "Dude, what the fuck is the matter with you."
  29. Nov 09 21:13:50 <tretter> "That's some real nice 'holding' Arthur."
  30. Nov 09 21:13:57 <tretter> "Me?"
  31. Nov 09 21:13:58 <DocLowell> "Please tell me "Red Sock" ain't a euphemism." Reeve drawls as he approaches.
  32. Nov 09 21:14:02 <Echo> "Yeah, you."
  33. Nov 09 21:14:04 <Gara> "... What the fuck is even..."
  34. Nov 09 21:14:10 <Wogglebug> Arthru steps back.
  35. Nov 09 21:14:12 <Gara> "He's crazy, Jason."
  36. Nov 09 21:14:22 <Gara> "Like, seriously crazy. Mentally ill."
  37. Nov 09 21:14:22 <Wogglebug> Arthur had thought/hoped Ross was dead.
  38. Nov 09 21:14:23 <Echo> "Get off the ground and quit actin' like a fuckin' child."
  39. Nov 09 21:14:23 <tretter> "I'm insane. I'm also a medic. Question is, do you believe me?"
  40. Nov 09 21:14:25 <Maddy> "What have I gotten into."
  41. Nov 09 21:14:34 <Strifer> " . . ."
  42. Nov 09 21:14:35 <Maddy> "Well I know I'm a medic."
  43. Nov 09 21:14:37 <Maddy> "so..."
  44. Nov 09 21:14:48 <tretter> "It's all fun and games, till Security walks in."
  45. Nov 09 21:14:51 <Wogglebug> ~There can/should be only one!~
  46. Nov 09 21:14:52 <Strifer> ~Glad that I'm sane, at least.~ Rick pulls out his bayonet to attempt to access ice cream.
  47. Nov 09 21:14:53 <Gara> "Ross, you're not allowed to practice medicine on me."
  48. Nov 09 21:15:04 <tretter> Ross gets up off the ground and dusts himself off.
  49. Nov 09 21:15:07 <Wogglebug> "Nor I."
  50. Nov 09 21:15:11 <DocLowell> Reeve glances at Alice. "The technic'l term for the situation yer observin' here is "mess." " He nods sagely.
  51. Nov 09 21:15:17 <Gara> "Alice, you can practice as much medicine on me as you want."
  52. Nov 09 21:15:23 <tretter> "I'll be happy to oblige that request, Loren when your arm is torn off."
  53. Nov 09 21:15:34 <Gara> "We have another medic."
  54. Nov 09 21:15:40 <Wogglebug> "What about when my arm is torn off?"
  55. Nov 09 21:15:42 <Wogglebug> "What then, Ross?"
  56. Nov 09 21:15:49 <RogetGM> Dr. Bland is just watching this from the sub, looking about how you'd expect watching trained professionals behave like tiny little babies. He coughs, softly.
  57. Nov 09 21:15:50 <Strifer> Rick shuffles over to the side. He doesn't like drama.
  58. Nov 09 21:16:02 <tretter> "I'll do anything for your love, Arthur."
  59. Nov 09 21:16:07 <Gara> "Bland, any information? No? Good."
  60. Nov 09 21:16:13 <Wogglebug> "..."
  61. Nov 09 21:16:14 <Maddy> Alice shrugs and goes over to the sub and waits for orders.
  62. Nov 09 21:16:15 <Strifer> Rick shuffles over to him. "So doctor, what's the word on the sonar?"
  63. Nov 09 21:16:23 <Wogglebug> "I will shoot you if you do not act professionally, Ross."
  64. Nov 09 21:16:24 <Echo> "My man, Bland." Jason heads over.
  65. Nov 09 21:16:35 <Echo> "What's the word?"
  66. Nov 09 21:16:38 <Wogglebug> "You have until you reach the sub to begin to do so."
  67. Nov 09 21:16:40 <Gara> Loren walks over.
  68. Nov 09 21:16:47 <tretter> "Of course! I am a proffesional."
  69. Nov 09 21:16:53 <RogetGM> "Oh, well... if you're ready to be briefed. Uhm... we have detected, uh..." he wipes his brow with a hankerchief. "A large uh, amount of sailors music."
  70. Nov 09 21:16:57 <Strifer> Rick cleans his knife off with he coat sleeve.
  71. Nov 09 21:17:01 <Gara> "... Like, what kind?"
  72. Nov 09 21:17:01 <DocLowell> Reeve steps towards the sub himself, checking over his equipment, what little he has with him.
  73. Nov 09 21:17:03 <tretter> Ross is now all serious business.
  74. Nov 09 21:17:05 <RogetGM> He shows a clipboard with very serious charts
  75. Nov 09 21:17:15 <Echo> "Sailor's music."
  76. Nov 09 21:17:22 <Maddy> "Wat."
  77. Nov 09 21:17:24 <RogetGM> "I don't know, it just says "sailor music" on the x axis of the graph."
  78. Nov 09 21:17:27 <Gara> "..."
  79. Nov 09 21:17:36 <Echo> Jason looks the charts over. "Yeah, there's a definite spike."
  80. Nov 09 21:17:36 <Gara> "You have a sailor music graph? Can I see it?"
  81. Nov 09 21:17:36 <tretter> "Ah, it must be PopEye, my mortal enemy."
  82. Nov 09 21:17:43 <RogetGM> Bland shrugs, and coughs a little.
  83. Nov 09 21:17:48 <Echo> He points at the sharp increase along y.
  84. Nov 09 21:17:54 <DocLowell> "... like Rogers and Hammerstein? Are ya hearin' some "A British Tar?"
  85. Nov 09 21:17:59 <Strifer> "We have great graphs."
  86. Nov 09 21:18:09 <Gara> "God, I fucking love graphs."
  87. Nov 09 21:18:14 <RogetGM> "I know, right?"
  88. Nov 09 21:18:15 <Wogglebug> Arthur stands in the back.
  89. Nov 09 21:18:25 <Gara> "Okay, any more information about gra- pirate music?
  90. Nov 09 21:18:49 <tretter> "It's about ale often enough, Loren."
  91. Nov 09 21:18:56 <RogetGM> "it's, uh, no. Sorry."
  92. Nov 09 21:19:06 <RogetGM> he coughs
  93. Nov 09 21:19:10 <Gara> "Alright, well, okay."
  94. Nov 09 21:19:19 <Gara> "Thanks, Bland. Time to go."
  95. Nov 09 21:19:23 <Strifer> "I've always wanted a duck foot pistol."
  96. Nov 09 21:19:26 <RogetGM> "Bye-bye."
  97. Nov 09 21:19:27 <tretter> "Want some cough suppressants, bud?"
  98. Nov 09 21:19:32 <DocLowell> Reeve is murmuring to himself as he restows his gear. "... mountain biiiird..." Mumble mumble. "... ready to resist..."
  99. Nov 09 21:19:34 <Strifer> "And a spoon, thinking about it."
  100. Nov 09 21:19:35 <Echo> "Blind reconnoiter."
  101. Nov 09 21:19:39 <RogetGM> Bland ignores Ross
  102. Nov 09 21:19:51 <Gara> "Yes, Jason. That's our job."
  103. Nov 09 21:19:55 <Gara> Loren gets in the sub.
  104. Nov 09 21:19:57 <Strifer> "Jason, you carrying a standard MRE combat spoon on you?"
  105. Nov 09 21:19:59 <Wogglebug> Arthur just gets in the sub already.
  106. Nov 09 21:20:00 <Maddy> Alive does too!
  107. Nov 09 21:20:05 <Maddy> Alice
  108. Nov 09 21:20:12 <Strifer> Rick gets in the sub as well.
  109. Nov 09 21:20:16 <tretter> Ross gets in the sub.
  110. Nov 09 21:20:21 <Echo> "Always." Jason slaps the hull and climbs in.
  111. Nov 09 21:20:25 <DocLowell> Reeve gets in the damn sub.
  112. Nov 09 21:20:31 <Strifer> "Care to sell it?"
  113. Nov 09 21:20:49 <Wogglebug> Arthur straps in. He's in his usual clothes and gear.
  114. Nov 09 21:21:08 <tretter> Ross is dressed in the standard uniform of an EMT.
  115. Nov 09 21:21:18 <Echo> He cinches down the straps in his seat, and puzzles for a moment whether he should sit muzzle up or muzzle down, realizes there's no real difference on a sub, and goes muzzle down. "Nah, can't part with it."
  116. Nov 09 21:21:37 <Maddy> "So...mostly just dont die?"
  117. Nov 09 21:21:42 <Strifer> "Very well, then."
  118. Nov 09 21:21:46 <Strifer> "Pretty much."
  119. Nov 09 21:21:49 <RogetGM> Once everyone is in the sub, it begins to descend
  120. Nov 09 21:21:51 <Strifer> Rick eats ice cream with a knife.
  121. Nov 09 21:21:51 <RogetGM> bloop bloop
  122. Nov 09 21:21:52 <Wogglebug> "Right then."
  123. Nov 09 21:21:57 <tretter> "This your first run... Uh... New medic?"
  124. Nov 09 21:21:59 <Wogglebug> "Everyone, listen."
  125. Nov 09 21:21:59 <DocLowell> "Your job is to make sure we don't die. I think OUR job is making sure you don't."
  126. Nov 09 21:22:13 <Wogglebug> "Everybody sound off with name and specialty."
  127. Nov 09 21:22:21 <Wogglebug> "Because I remember maybe half of your."
  128. Nov 09 21:22:25 <Wogglebug> *you
  129. Nov 09 21:22:42 <Gara> "Arthur you know me."
  130. Nov 09 21:22:47 <tretter> "I'm Ross. I do shit. Sometime medical shit, other times shooty shit."
  131. Nov 09 21:22:50 <Wogglebug> " /They/ don't."
  132. Nov 09 21:22:57 <Echo> "Security Officer Dodridge. Damage control."
  133. Nov 09 21:22:57 <DocLowell> The American Indian with the southern accent answers, "Walker, Research- zoology, specifically."
  134. Nov 09 21:23:07 <Gara> "Fair enough."
  135. Nov 09 21:23:18 <Strifer> "Caiaphas. Espionage. Scouting, ambushes, prevention of both of them."
  136. Nov 09 21:23:25 <FlameShirt> Dougie runs in, L86 and all.
  137. Nov 09 21:23:33 <Maddy> "Alice. Im called Alice."
  138. Nov 09 21:23:42 <tretter> "And what does Alice do?"
  139. Nov 09 21:23:42 <FlameShirt> Actually not.
  140. Nov 09 21:23:50 <RogetGM> Dougie runs in the sub for some reason, he's probably looking insane right now
  141. Nov 09 21:24:11 <Strifer> Rick raises an eyebrow and gives Jason a look.
  142. Nov 09 21:24:12 <Maddy> "Medical stuff. Also animal biology. And a damn good shot."
  143. Nov 09 21:24:13 <Gara> "Loren Steinburg, socialist-lemme revise that, I talk to people- and part time fighter. Wannabe jedi."
  144. Nov 09 21:24:31 <tretter> "Wait, you have a last name, Loren?"
  145. Nov 09 21:24:33 <RogetGM> Anyone looking out the windows, perception
  146. Nov 09 21:24:54 <Echo> 6df+6 Jason's always watching.

  157. Nov 09 21:25:05 <Wogglebug> "Right then. And I'm Arthur Morton- Mechanical Engineering, Various Sciences, Physics and temporal science, observation and communications."
  158. Nov 09 21:25:07 <Strifer> Rick is looking mostly at his ice cream and things. Do without best eyes, team.
  159. Nov 09 21:25:17 <Wogglebug> Arthur isn't looking out the windows.
  160. Nov 09 21:25:22 <Gara> "Rick, what are you even doing with icecream."
  161. Nov 09 21:25:24 <tretter> "I always just thought you were Loren."
  162. Nov 09 21:25:32 <Maddy> "My last name is Dodridge."
  163. Nov 09 21:25:33 <Gara> "... That's pretty stupid."
  164. Nov 09 21:25:34 <Strifer> "Eating it."
  165. Nov 09 21:25:44 <Strifer> "I'm an expert and it's frozen."
  166. Nov 09 21:25:47 <Maddy> "Though Im on file as Erdrich, to avoid confusion."
  167. Nov 09 21:25:49 <tretter> "Like, your name was stripped from all the records."
  168. Nov 09 21:25:53 <RogetGM> Jason, Alice, and Reeve all see some shells floating by the window... along with some shark teeth. Rawr.
  169. Nov 09 21:25:55 <Strifer> "Americone Dream is terrible melted."
  170. Nov 09 21:26:09 <Maddy> "Shark teeth."
  171. Nov 09 21:26:13 <Echo> "Somethin' outside. Biological. Teeth."
  172. Nov 09 21:26:17 <Wogglebug> "How large?"
  173. Nov 09 21:26:18 <Gara> "Oh, god."
  174. Nov 09 21:26:19 <Maddy> "Also share that shit, Rick."
  175. Nov 09 21:26:23 <Strifer> "Cool."
  176. Nov 09 21:26:24 <tretter> "Human?"
  177. Nov 09 21:26:37 <Strifer> Rick passes the pint over to Alice and looks out a viewport!
  178. Nov 09 21:26:40 <Echo> "Uhhhh shark, maybe? I think shark."
  179. Nov 09 21:26:56 <DocLowell> 6df+7

  181. Nov 09 21:27:04 <Maddy> Alice noms icecream. "Very shark like, anyways."
  182. Nov 09 21:27:06 <Strifer> "Anyone want to put money on Sharkoctopus or Sharknados?"
  183. Nov 09 21:27:16 <Maddy> "Ohgod."
  184. Nov 09 21:27:19 <Strifer> "Sharkoctopi?"
  185. Nov 09 21:27:24 <RogetGM> A goddamn massive fucking jagged scary-looking tooth the size of about 4 baseball gloves and as thick as ross's skull floats by the window, making a forboding woosh sound in the water as it passes
  186. Nov 09 21:27:29 <tretter> "I think it's a TidalShark Wave."
  187. Nov 09 21:27:36 <Strifer> ". . ."
  188. Nov 09 21:27:44 <DocLowell> "... make that extremely large shark teeth."
  189. Nov 09 21:27:46 <Strifer> "Dammit, you guys mind if I make the obvious joke?"
  190. Nov 09 21:28:05 <tretter> "Go ahead."
  191. Nov 09 21:28:12 <DocLowell> (How big would a shark with teeth like that be?)
  192. Nov 09 21:28:13 <Gara> "Awesome."
  193. Nov 09 21:28:19 <Strifer> "We're going to need a bigger sub."
  194. Nov 09 21:28:24 <RogetGM> (pretty fucking big)
  195. Nov 09 21:28:31 <Wogglebug> (Magalodon?)
  196. Nov 09 21:28:32 <tretter> "Was that a jaws Joke?"
  197. Nov 09 21:28:33 <DocLowell> (swallow the sub big?)
  198. Nov 09 21:28:43 <RogetGM> (BIG SHARK RAR)
  199. Nov 09 21:29:03 <DocLowell> "I don't suppose the sub is weaponized, izzit?"
  200. Nov 09 21:29:11 <Gara> "Not even a little bit."
  201. Nov 09 21:29:19 <Echo> "Let's just... sit tight until we end up where we end up. And no, for some reason."
  202. Nov 09 21:29:26 <Echo> "Fuckin' deck gun would be great."
  203. Nov 09 21:29:27 <Strifer> "That was, in fact, a Jaws joke."
  204. Nov 09 21:29:28 <tretter> "No, unless by weaponized you mean releasing the airlock."
  205. Nov 09 21:29:42 <Strifer> "Hey, a deck gun would make perfect sense, actually."
  206. Nov 09 21:29:45 <Echo> "We got dive equipment on here?"
  207. Nov 09 21:29:50 <DocLowell> "Suppose that means we're hoping it's big enough to swallow us if it takes an interest... though that ain't typical shark behavior."
  208. Nov 09 21:29:53 <tretter> "We should..."
  209. Nov 09 21:29:53 <Wogglebug> "Should, yeah."
  210. Nov 09 21:29:56 <RogetGM> Suddenly, the lights above them flicker on and off rapidly, with the lightbulbs shaking in their sockets. Everybody is overcome by intense pain from the waist down. They ought to roll physical defense to not die
  211. Nov 09 21:30:03 <Strifer> "I mean, sub has carried a deck gun since about when those Bofors guns were state of the art, right?"

  331. Nov 09 21:41:31 <RogetGM> once people start swimming outside, the merpeople stop shooting.

  346. Nov 09 21:43:13 <RogetGM> Also for the record there are 4 merpeople hanging around here
  347. Nov 09 21:43:35 <DocLowell> Reeve doublechecks to see if the sub hull was caved in or blown out.
  348. Nov 09 21:43:45 <tretter> "Uh, no. We killed this shark earlier, and we then mechanized it to spy on the sharks."

  435. Nov 09 21:57:35 <RogetGM> Rick, the trenches look funny. Like, ha-ha funny. other than that you discern nothing.
  436. Nov 09 21:57:37 <RogetGM> Just Rick
  437. Nov 09 21:57:53 <Strifer> "..."
  438. Nov 09 21:58:05 <Strifer> "Hmmmm, they're not planned to any sense that I can figure out."
  439. Nov 09 21:58:12 <Gara> "Huh."
  440. Nov 09 21:58:21 <Strifer> "The trenches."
  441. Nov 09 21:58:23 <tretter> Do they have the ability to smell blood from X distance away? like actual sharks and fish?
  442. Nov 09 21:58:31 <Strifer> "I know my trenches, Loren."
  443. Nov 09 21:58:39 <Gara> "Yeah, I know."
  444. Nov 09 21:58:44 <Strifer> "Ain't Soviet, ain't like anything that got dug in Libya."
  445. Nov 09 21:58:59 <tretter> "Mass graves?"
  446. Nov 09 21:59:07 <Gara> Loren nods. "That's possible, too."
  447. Nov 09 21:59:21 <tretter> He whisphered that, so the other merepeople wouldn't hear.
  448. Nov 09 21:59:23 <Strifer> Can Rick see any emplacements that look like Artillery, Machine Guns, or AAA analogues?
  449. Nov 09 21:59:24 <Wogglebug> Arthur scans the area fro danger and such.
  450. Nov 09 21:59:26 <DocLowell> "To be far. The Soviets never had to prepare for an underwater skirmish."
  451. Nov 09 21:59:29 <RogetGM> Everyone is led into the castle at this point, going through many halls composed of coral, rocks, wood, and even heavily compacted seaweed, which would squish when they walked on them... if they had feet. On the walls are various shell-based artworks of merpeople being eaten by giant sharks. The sharks appear to have lazer beams attached to their heads.
  452. Nov 09 21:59:47 <tretter> "Grisly..."
  453. Nov 09 21:59:51 <Strifer> "Fricken laser beams."

  455. Nov 09 21:59:57 <DocLowell> "... oh, no."
  456. Nov 09 21:59:59 <Strifer> "Fricken laser beams, Alice."
  457. Nov 09 22:00:00 <Wogglebug> Arthur keeps on the lookout.
  458. Nov 09 22:00:10 <DocLowell> "Y'guys remember the bit when I mentioned bein' attacked at range?"
  459. Nov 09 22:00:17 <DocLowell> "Ferget I said that. Maybe it'll go away."

  463. Nov 09 22:00:41 <Echo> "Later."
  464. Nov 09 22:00:51 <Maddy> Alice feels her neck for gills.

  466. Nov 09 22:01:11 <Strifer> Rick nods and goes all espionagey.
  467. Nov 09 22:01:26 <RogetGM> Alice, you do, in fact, have gills, because you are a fish
  468. Nov 09 22:02:01 <tretter> Ross pokes a finger in his gills.
  469. Nov 09 22:02:15 <Strifer> Rick checks to see which way his tail moves.
  470. Nov 09 22:02:15 <Maddy> "Dont do that."
  471. Nov 09 22:02:21 <RogetGM> Ross, roll pdef for jamming foreign matter in your body

  475. Nov 09 22:03:12 <RogetGM> Ross remains unharmed, although it is probably the 11th or 12th most uncomfortable time he's ever had a hand shoved down his throat.
  476. Nov 09 22:03:23 <RogetGM> *-hand +foreign biological matter
  477. Nov 09 22:03:47 <DocLowell> Reeve just sorta boggles at Ross.

  483. Nov 09 22:04:40 <Gara> "Right."
  484. Nov 09 22:04:54 <DocLowell> "Who ain't a unicorn nor a seahorse, apparently. Which is all kindsa disappointin'."
  485. Nov 09 22:05:07 <Strifer> Rick idly wonders what happened to the ice cream.
  486. Nov 09 22:05:51 <Echo> Jason swims ahead, waggling his tail-of-many-colors.
  487. Nov 09 22:06:11 <RogetGM> And, on cue, they arrive in a large circular chamber. It appears to have been carved out of a clam mouth, with various carvings of great mer-people adorning the walls. At the ceiling, there is a huge carved pearl acting as a sort of disco ball, reflecting light all over the room. At the center of a room is a Unicorn Seahorse. A bright pink one. The horn is sp

  492. Nov 09 22:07:00 <Gara> "Lord Unicorn Seahorse."
  493. Nov 09 22:07:07 <Gara> Loren bows her head slightly.
  494. Nov 09 22:07:08 <Maddy> Alice does a little bow cause she has no idea.
  495. Nov 09 22:07:20 <RogetGM> Unicorn Seahorse neighs
  496. Nov 09 22:07:25 <tretter> Ross tries to do a bow, but he ends up spinning in the water.
  497. Nov 09 22:07:41 <Wogglebug> Arthur waits in the back.
  498. Nov 09 22:07:50 <Strifer> Rick is a freeborn man. He doesn't usually bow.
  499. Nov 09 22:07:55 <Wogglebug> He scans the room for danger, exits, etc.
  500. Nov 09 22:08:13 <Maddy> "...why is it always a horse."
  501. Nov 09 22:08:18 <Maddy> "Jason, it's always a horse."
  502. Nov 09 22:08:19 <DocLowell> "... I am no longer disappointed a'all."
  503. Nov 09 22:08:24 <RogetGM> then he coughs, clearing his throat. "Are you the survivors I have heard of, from the Great Pacific Metallic Shark Excursion of 2277?"

  508. Nov 09 22:09:13 <RogetGM> Arthur sees a small hatch on the ceiling. Made of stuff. Ocean stuff.
  509. Nov 09 22:09:16 <Gara> "Yes, sire."
  510. Nov 09 22:09:26 <Wogglebug> Can he tell which way it opens?

  514. Nov 09 22:09:39 <RogetGM> It would fit a mer-man
  515. Nov 09 22:09:45 <Gara> Who has a rainbow tail?
  516. Nov 09 22:09:56 <RogetGM> he stares at Jason intently, with a wizened stare
  517. Nov 09 22:10:02 <RogetGM> "How are you, my child?"
  518. Nov 09 22:10:09 <Gara> ~Oh shit.~
  519. Nov 09 22:10:50 <tretter> Ross is still spinning. He finds it mildly entertaining.
  520. Nov 09 22:10:54 <FlameShirt> Dougie just floats, sitting to himself.
  521. Nov 09 22:11:05 <Echo> "I'm.. good."
  522. Nov 09 22:11:15 <Echo> Jason nods politely.
  523. Nov 09 22:11:50 <Echo> He's doing none of the spinning or swooshing around the others are engaged in.
  524. Nov 09 22:12:11 <Maddy> Alice opens her mouth as if to say something, closes it, opens again, then gives up.
  525. Nov 09 22:12:17 <RogetGM> Unicorn Seahorse gets in Jason's personal space. "Your coming has been fortold, my child. On the 11th hour of the 231st day, a rainbow-clad mer-warrior will lead an army of his fellows to smash the sharks in their shark faces."
  526. Nov 09 22:12:49 <RogetGM> "You are to liberate the kingdom of Port-Land from the shark menace."
  527. Nov 09 22:13:08 <tretter> Ross checks his watch. Was it the 231st day already?
  528. Nov 09 22:13:13 <Gara> Loren very quietly moves her hand to wear she keeps her lightsaber. Just floating near it.
  529. Nov 09 22:13:22 <Echo> If it couldn't possibly be construed as disrespectful, Jason would either flatface or laugh. He settles for looking back at the others.
  530. Nov 09 22:13:37 <Echo> "I'm... are you sure?"
  531. Nov 09 22:13:54 <FlameShirt> Dougie gives Jason a "Mmmhmmm" look.
  532. Nov 09 22:14:02 <tretter> "Roll with the punches, mate."
  533. Nov 09 22:14:16 <RogetGM> "I'm shorely sure. Do you accept the task thrust inside of you, my child?"
  534. Nov 09 22:14:26 <Maddy> Alice cheks her weapons. "Welp."
  535. Nov 09 22:14:29 <Wogglebug> Arthur backs against a wall. Could he use it to push off for a boost in speed if he needed to?
  536. Nov 09 22:15:28 <Echo> Jason looks at the M60 still strapped to his chest.
  537. Nov 09 22:15:37 <FlameShirt> Dougie is looking at his rifle, getting very upset at all the water in it.

  539. Nov 09 22:15:45 <DocLowell> Reeve looks very lost. That prophecy sounded... strange. And besides which... oh, bother. He could think on it more later.
  540. Nov 09 22:15:46 <Echo> "I need a weapon."
  541. Nov 09 22:15:52 <RogetGM> "We have arms for you."

  543. Nov 09 22:17:02 <RogetGM> Suddenly, the clamshell opens up, revealing a set of eight golden tridents, with the blades glowing a sparkly green. They seem to emanate raw ocean-trident power, and leave one with a feeling of awe and slight hunger.
  544. Nov 09 22:17:54 <FlameShirt> "Neat."
  545. Nov 09 22:17:58 <Gara> ~Mmmm. I need a sandwich.~
  546. Nov 09 22:18:06 <tretter> Ross digs through his pack and noms on a soggy candybar.
  547. Nov 09 22:18:20 <RogetGM> "These, are the arms of the prophecy.Sangard, Bangrieg, Loiker, Bojangles, Dodolamus, Pythalimu, Klendeshy, and Bob. You've probably never heard of them, but they are vastly powerful and righteous."

  554. Nov 09 22:19:39 <Echo> "They look... powerful." Jason looks at the ones on display, then at the ones the other merpeople are carrying.
  555. Nov 09 22:19:41 <Wogglebug> Arthur tries to call one to him with his mind.
  556. Nov 09 22:19:43 <Echo> Noticeably different?

  564. Nov 09 22:20:58 <tretter> Ross picks up Bojangles. He tests it's weight, and dexterity.
  565. Nov 09 22:21:00 <FlameShirt> Dougie also goes for the one named Bob.

  593. Nov 09 22:25:23 <Strifer> "Where do we mount the bayonet?"
  594. Nov 09 22:25:37 <DocLowell> Reeve grabs Sangard and Bangrieg, offering the latter to Alice haft-first.

  1262. Nov 10 00:30:53 <RogetGM> whatever
  1263. Nov 10 00:30:54 <RogetGM> names
  1264. Nov 10 00:30:56 <Maddy> I got it
  1265. Nov 10 00:31:34 <Strifer> Rick attempts to swing the trident as Sinister Finister goes past!

  1278. Nov 10 00:32:37 <Glacon> tretter: ranged, blah blah blah: 6 (6df+5=-, +, -, 0, +, +)
  1279. Nov 10 00:33:17 <DocLowell> Sizzling and bleeding, Reeve narrows his eyes at the sharklavaborg and hefts Sangard as if to throw it! He doesn't- but he's trusting the natural design of the ancient weapon to carry the lazar home!
  1280. Nov 10 00:33:43 <DocLowell> 6df+10 Tagging Savage Arms
  1281. Nov 10 00:33:43 <Glacon> DocLowell: Tagging Savage Arms: 8 (6df+10=-, 0, -, -, +, 0)
  1282. Nov 10 00:34:11 <RogetGM> Everything seems ineffectual until Loren hits him directly in the face. Sinister Finister screams. "Not the face! NOT THE FAAAA-" before his body bloats up, and melts into the floor. The base begins to crumble around you, and the walls leaving you segregated from the open seas disintegrate, offering liberty! FREEDOM!
  1283. Nov 10 00:34:35 <Echo> "..."
  1284. Nov 10 00:34:38 <Maddy> "Lets get out of here!"
  1285. Nov 10 00:34:48 <Echo> Jason starts paddling off immediately.
  1286. Nov 10 00:34:50 <Maddy> She swims out~
  1287. Nov 10 00:34:50 <DocLowell> "We -are- out of here. There's no here left."
  1288. Nov 10 00:34:56 <Gara> "Well, ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha. That was easier then I thought it would be." Loren says this while swimming away.
  1289. Nov 10 00:35:16 <Maddy> "Don't say that Loreeeeenn."
  1290. Nov 10 00:35:17 <tretter> Ross follows the rest.
  1291. Nov 10 00:35:24 <DocLowell> Reeve peers about to see if Sinister Finister's cyborg face survived the melting.
  1292. Nov 10 00:35:27 <Gara> "I like cursing us."
  1293. Nov 10 00:35:31 <Strifer> Rick exfiltrates.
  1294. Nov 10 00:35:35 <Wogglebug> Arthur follows.
  1295. Nov 10 00:35:44 <Strifer> "Yeah, hardly any good loot."
  1296. Nov 10 00:36:15 <RogetGM> As they flee, the volcano doom fortress collapses, with lava melting in on itself. Outside, there is a group of merpeople cheering and also hiding behind a nearby block of coral, including Unicorn Seahorse. Behind them is something glinting metallic-ly.
  1297. Nov 10 00:37:17 <Gara> Loren points with her trident.
  1298. Nov 10 00:37:25 <Wogglebug> Arthur looks.
  1299. Nov 10 00:37:28 <Wogglebug> 6df+8
  1300. Nov 10 00:37:28 <Glacon> Wogglebug: 8 (6df+8=0, +, -, +, -, 0)
  1301. Nov 10 00:37:30 <Echo> Jason swims down to the merpeople.
  1302. Nov 10 00:37:43 <Echo> Might as well check out the glinty thing.
  1303. Nov 10 00:37:49 <RogetGM> "YOU DID IT!" Unicorn Seahorse gives Jason a MASSIVE HUG
  1304. Nov 10 00:38:02 <Echo> And return Bob, Seahorse's ancestral wea- Jason is hugged.
  1305. Nov 10 00:38:18 <DocLowell> Reeve follows with the others, eyes on the distant... glinty... thing.
  1306. Nov 10 00:38:21 * TheRaven has quit (Quit: Sail away where no ball and chain can keep us from the roarin' waves, together undivided but forever we'll be free!)
  1307. Nov 10 00:38:30 <RogetGM> "We made you something! To thank you! We re-purposed the corpse of the metallic shark which consumed you, into something of freedom!"
  1308. Nov 10 00:38:44 <RogetGM> Everyone can see the sub is now shaped like a scarf fluttering in the wind.
  1309. Nov 10 00:39:06 <Maddy> "Awww thats sweet."
  1310. Nov 10 00:39:10 <tretter> "Fuck"
  1311. Nov 10 00:39:22 <tretter> "What'll the director say?"
  1312. Nov 10 00:39:23 <Echo> Jason pats Seahorse on the back, placatingly, and offers Bob back to him.
  1313. Nov 10 00:39:37 <Echo> "It wasn't just me. All of these people helped."
  1314. Nov 10 00:39:41 <DocLowell> "I agree with both'a ya. That's sweet. And what Ross said."
  1315. Nov 10 00:39:43 <Gara> "Thank you."
  1316. Nov 10 00:39:49 <Gara> "And he won't say a damn word."
  1317. Nov 10 00:39:51 <Strifer> "Totally claiming it as semi-destroyed for purposes of the pool."
  1318. Nov 10 00:39:51 <RogetGM> Seahorse Unicorn takes it. "We shall honor your legacy, all of your legacies."
  1319. Nov 10 00:40:52 <RogetGM> The sub awaits, gentlemen
  1320. Nov 10 00:41:26 <tretter> Ross gets in the "sub"
  1321. Nov 10 00:41:33 <Gara> Loren gets in the sub.
  1322. Nov 10 00:41:57 <Wogglebug> Arthur as well.
  1323. Nov 10 00:42:11 <Strifer> Rick swims in and looks for his abandoned ice cream.
  1324. Nov 10 00:42:19 <Echo> Jason swims toward it after bowing one last time to Seahorse, his original panic building back to where it started.
  1325. Nov 10 00:42:33 * tretter has quit (Quit: CGI:IRC (EOF))
  1326. Nov 10 00:42:48 <Gara> "This shit happens all the time."
  1327. Nov 10 00:43:04 <RogetGM> once everyone is in the sub, it begins to ascend.
  1328. Nov 10 00:43:24 <DocLowell> Reeve certainly has no interest in staying behind.
  1329. Nov 10 00:43:51 <Strifer> "Alice. I blame you for the loss of the remaining ice cream."
  1330. Nov 10 00:44:08 <Maddy> "Im sorry."
  1331. Nov 10 00:44:21 <RogetGM> They pretty much get the same treatment of blinding pain->passing out-> wake up with legs instead of fins.
  1332. Nov 10 00:44:25 <Strifer> "It's okay."
  1333. Nov 10 00:44:28 <DocLowell> Reeve raises a hand. "Hold it, hold it. I have a record of sleep eating. It was me, the whole time. I ate your underwater knife ice-creaAAAAA-"
  1334. Nov 10 00:44:29 <RogetGM> then they are in the sub bay of #farrecon
