	Rochette: 	Rochette loses 0 hit points.
Avara: 	ok. i think that's all ro's book-keeping done
Chloe has connected.
Kaorin Sakura: 	Cut my finger on plastic. >:/
Kaorin Sakura: 	These new headphones better be worth it.
Eclipse: 	Bookkeeping done. ALL systems, FULL power!
Kaorin Sakura: 	So! I forgot to do the side-session with Ava.
Kaorin Sakura: 	And am now facing the 'what do I do' with her situation. As such, I'm bringing it to your attention in hopes of developing a solution.
Kaorin Sakura: 	Simultaneously doing combat and anythingelseever just isn't going to happen (as previously seen from last session).
Chloe: 	It's difficult to say, not knowing much about what she will get involved in, or how fast she's expected to return to the party
Eclipse: 	Or of how much time it would take to get from point A to point B, AND if she can do so without issue.
Chloe: 	I'm sure a lot of time discrepancy can be handwaved if it gets everyone in the same place at the same time.
Chloe: 	I'd rather see her get her task done, sneak back and join us for the bulk of the sewer section, even if that doesn't make as much chronological sense
Chloe: 	The issue is OOG time.
Kaorin Sakura: 	The issue is the events versus OOG time. I can only handwave so much. She essentially went into a fully staffed zombie area alone in the hopes of being unseen and reaching a place to alert any non-zombie staff before having to sneak past the same zombies and then through the same area you all traversed, hopefully taking the same path you all did.
Chloe: 	Yeah, that can only go off without a hitch with very good rolls.
Kaorin Sakura: 	If she was further into Umbral Manipulator I could handwave a hell of a lot. Because shadow teleportation. But I don't think she's that far in.
Avara: 	i am not.
Chloe: 	A third option is having Rochette reconsider the challenge and rejoin the group
Kaorin Sakura: 	That would definitely be the easiest on everyone - but that would nullify Ava's chance at that solo Stealth session she may have wanted.
Chloe: 	it would, and it isn't fair in that way
Kaorin Sakura: 	It was a fantastic opportunity for a Stealth spotlight but it was also the worst opportunity because most weren'y interested in splitting the party and I cannot do anyone justice while there's big map traversing and combat.
Avara: 	i would like to have solo stealth shenanigans, yes. a few questions.
Avara: 	is the combat ahead balanced with the assumption that i'd be present, to such a degree that i probably need to be there?
Chloe: 	it always is
Kaorin Sakura: 	I am willing to do a compromise: I can set up a Stealth scenario in the city for you to happen on Wednesday if you were looking for a Stealth solo session.
Kaorin Sakura: 	And you can forego this mission you began here and we can say "That totally never happened." for the sake of stuff.
Avara: 	as far as i can see, it's either that, i sit out another session and risk you guys losing because of my selfish stupidity, or i hang back until emergency for a deus-ex-machina assist. which wouldn't make sense and would probably be stupid.
Kaorin Sakura: 	Because I am honestly at a loss as to how this can effectively play out. Because, while I could say "They'll do this battle thing and you can do that stealth thing afterward" I can't guarentee that the events will work out that way for it to be favourably. Things could get worse or things could magically end.
Avara: 	so... yeah
Avara: 	retcons ahoy
Kaorin Sakura: 	I apologize that I didn't handle this over the weekend like I should've. We'll do that thing Wednesday.
Kaorin Sakura: 	Now, for the other order of business:
Has anyone heard from Trul?
Avara: 	's fine. like i said, was probably being stupid to begin with.
Avara: 	haven't heard anything from trul that'd explain his absene
Kaorin Sakura: 	No one's calling what you did stupid or even you stupid.
I did try to ask Mike for help and just have him run the Stealth mission with you so it could be simultaneous but it just didn't work out.
Avara: 	*absence
Avara: 	i'm not saying you called it stupid kaorin.
Avara: 	-i'm- calling it probably stupid.
DNA: 	I never thought the stealthing off was a stupid idea.
DNA: 	...did we come to a consensus, and/or are we just waiting for Trul Manchu?
Kaorin Sakura: 	I sent Trul a message. I'm seeing if he gets it.
Kaorin Sakura: 	Oh. My Skype JUST decided to notify me that he's offline.
Chloe: 	I listed some options as I saw them.
Kaorin Sakura: 	Yeah, we won't need to wait for him.
Kaorin Sakura: 	Ava's choice got retconned. She's with the party.
Avara: 	brb, can start without me. i'll catch up, but i shouldn't be long either.
Kaorin Sakura: 	She can also get the PKMN XP she missed last time.
Avara: 	i think you opted to give that to me anyway.
Kaorin Sakura: 	I don't recall. But if I did awesome.
Kaorin Sakura: 	Would anyone like to recap?
Avara: 	false alarm. here meow.
DNA: 	After unsplitting, resplitting, and unsplitting the party again due to retcon, the team (well, most of them) are at this gigantic plant heart thing and ready to smash face.
DNA: 	Probably to eradicate the source of the butt zombies, which is what this thing probably is.
Avara: 	where should i drop ro?
Kaorin Sakura: 	-AK, -62
Kaorin Sakura: 	Bio Dome Sewers
Avara: 	that's in the water
Kaorin Sakura: 	Not in the water but yeah. In that general area.
Kaorin Sakura: 	And sec - Excel is loading. >:/
Kaorin Sakura: 	Apparently it opened but was like "There's multiple saves dood!" and never actually opened.
DNA: 	sounds like me and my laptop
Chloe: 	What's vision blocking to the south of us?
DNA: 	every so often it tells me my file is read-only and locked for editing by myself.
Kaorin Sakura: 	Nothing. Your light just doesn't do that far for some reason.
Kaorin Sakura: 	Oh, Natasha is at a weird angle is all.
	Natasha: 	I'm aaaaaaaaaaall the way over here!
DNA: 	Now that we've recapped, what's the next step?
Avara: 	now we die. probably.
	Chronicler: 	I was looking up attacks and stuff.
	Chronicler: 	Because i don't put that stuff on tokens. Not when I have Excel.
DNA: 	Excel master race
	Chronicler: 	Okay so! Your meat shield is absent today. Just before you encounter the largest thing you've ever seen.
	Chronicler: 	Talk about luck!
Chloe: 	at least she kept us at full health
Avara: 	... sure.
DNA: 	"At least I'm safe inside my mind..."
DNA: 	I thought Rochette only had 2 injuries at most
	Chronicler: 	Now, I'll go on ahead and allow you guys to do what you do and be tactical and all that stuff.
Chloe: 	Rochette is a violence magnet.
Avara: 	ro got a new one last time she was in a session
DNA: 	...
DNA: 	that's riiiiiight...
	Chronicler: 	However, as a note: The creatures you can clearly see also clearly see you. Such is the problem of being a big luminescent glow in a dark, dark place.
	Chloe Blanchett: 	Chloe decides to send out Vorpal for this encounter...
	Rochette: 	"Was anyone able to determine the full type for these things?"
* Saturn Rosewell and Natasha were trying to remain as quiet as possible. Walking above the ground was a really good way not to make noise...
	Saturn Rosewell: 	She tried to get a bit of a closer look, repulsed as she was.
	Chronicler: 	The big thing and the creatures around it do not attempt to stop your advance. Though they watch you with deep interest.
	Chloe Blanchett: 	"Hello?" Chloe asked to the shadowed figures.
Trulhammaren has connected.
Avara: 	yay! we're not gonna die!
	Plant Hive: 	Plant Hive watches you all creep closer to it and once you come within a certain range is opens up an orofice it had concealed with its tendrils. Almost like plant-birth you can see it produce an incredibly large tentacle creature that springs to life and crawls forward.
DNA: 	yay based trul
Trulhammaren: 	sorry, fell asleep
Avara: 	... malboro.
	Tentacle Eye Monster: 	Tentacle Eye Monster emerges from its slimey birth.
DNA: 	also, fakking marlboro
Avara: 	mal. marlboro is the cigarette brand.
DNA: 	1) I'm aware; 2) they are spelt 'marlboro' in certain titles
Avara: 	ok
Tentacle Eye Monster: (( Everyone is correct. ))
DNA: 	the double meaning is what really sells it...at least to me. But, I digress!
* Rochette readies her bow, though she doesn't draw an arrow yet.
Avara: 	mal gives another double meaning, just in mal itself. the evil/bad prefix thing.
	Tentacle Eye Monster: 	Tentacle Eye Monster turns to your group, "From this proximity I am far more capable of your riddled and mind-numbingly slow mode of information sharing."
	Tentacle Eye Monster: 	"I met up with you before - attempting to converse with you through the augmented sewage."
	Tentacle Eye Monster: 	"You think us invaders? You think us some terrible alien outbreak? Something out of an old horror flick for entertainment and that we should find hosts elsewhere? That you are the heroes of this story?"
	Plant Hive: 	Plant Hive shudders. The ceiling overhead flaking off slime and dust from its massive bulk.
	Chloe Blanchett: 	"Nnn...not really. I'm mostly surprised you watch movies..."
	Rochette: 	"We're just hirelings trying to resolve a crisis for our employer. Heroism doesn't come into it."
	Tentacle Eye Monster: 	"Then, be prepared terrans. For you are not the first to put down those much like ourselves. We were once one. And this one was once terran. The terrans attempt to play Arceus and create life where none should exist. The result? Us. And we're not going to just die off. We will merge and become one. And take control. And you, nor anyone else, will stop us."
	Carol: 	Carol blinks and whispers to Valerie.
	Saturn Rosewell: 	"The 'terrans' tried to play Arceus and create life where none should exist? And you respond by trying to conform life to your standards?"
	Saturn Rosewell: 	"What makes you any different from the ones you profess to hate?"
	Tentacle Eye Monster: 	"We do so to live where they do so for recreation."
	Tentacle Eye Monster: 	Tentacle Eye Monster points its tentacle-things at your group, "Convert them or kill them. Whichever occurs first!"
	Saturn Rosewell: 	"That's not a difference, that's a question of location. You're no better than your own enemies!"
	Chloe Blanchett: 	"No different from the husks..."
	Saturn Rosewell: 	"Th-...The Husks!?" Saturn hiccuped a bit. "Th-Th-They were like this t-too!?"
	Rochette: 	"You want to force us into an existence of mindless slavery and servitude. Rather than attempting diplomacy? Lure a scientist down hre without harming them and have dialogue... didn't occur to you, probably." She shrugged. "I will kill you, if you attempt to take my family from me. That is all there is to it."

* Saturn Rosewell beckons Natasha to follow her, exuding Mist as she does so.
	Saturn Rosewell: 	3 uses of Mist!
Avara: 	what does Mist do?
DNA: 	If you would lose a combat stage(s), you may expend 1 use of Mist to not lose them. This does not apply to Injuries.
