  1. Feb 16 21:35:10 <zooftop> Okay, so, Saryx has been off on a little task himself while the others were working on their own thing. Last we heard from him he was doing 'research' for a counter measure to Dandyman's Wanga dolls. What can you say about what you intend to do so far, Saryx?
  2. Feb 16 21:38:30 <Saryx> Well, when Saryx first dropped that line on Chase... He was totally fucking bullshitting it. Somehow, though, he ended up getting married to his lie, aaand... Well, frankly, even Botherrer's not quite sure what to do with this idea thus far.
  3. Feb 16 21:39:18 <Saryx> Like, Saryx is probably sperging way hard on it, caught up on whether or not... Actually, when the Wanga Doll 2.0s got launched, did we actually capture any? Or did they all get broken?
  4. Feb 16 21:40:02 <Saryx> Looking into those, if any are left and not completely busted beyond recognition, might be a good starting point for him.
  5. Feb 16 21:40:05 <zooftop> You could have easily collected one of them.
  6. Feb 16 21:40:17 <zooftop> Assuming you guys did and you got a look over them, roll me...
  7. Feb 16 21:40:28 <zooftop> a Tech Edu, a Occult Edu, and a General Edu
  8. Feb 16 21:41:48 <Saryx> 4d6+1 Tech;6d6+1 Occult (1 AP);2d6+1 General
  9. Feb 16 21:41:49 <DiceMaid-9001> Saryx, Tech: 16 [4d6=2,6,3,4]; Occult (1 AP): 20 [6d6=5,3,2,2,2,5]; General: 6 [2d6=3,2]
  10. Feb 16 21:42:36 <Saryx> (Used Saryx' Claircognizance for the Occult roll)
  11. Feb 16 21:42:49 <zooftop> Okay, first leme describe this thing in a bit more detail
  12. Feb 16 21:43:37 <zooftop> This wanga doll resembles a child. It's creepy as shit, and is largely made of wood and textiles, but has metallic weaponry and a robotic 'skeleton' and chipset to it. The ones you saw previously, early in your adventure, were more like...little voodoo dolls
  13. Feb 16 21:45:21 <zooftop> http://imgur.com/sP28XgI is the one you have in particular
  14. Feb 16 21:45:52 <zooftop> For your tech roll...
  15. Feb 16 21:46:22 <zooftop> You're not robotics expert, but you ARE tech savvy, and you can tell this thing's robotic parts really only serve two purposes
  16. Feb 16 21:46:46 <zooftop> A) it's a reinforced skeletal frame, and B) it's some sorta backup system for operating it.
  17. Feb 16 21:47:11 <zooftop> You didn't SEE how it triggered, but Rosetta woulda told you when she triggered the anti-occult stuff cube, it fell over, then got back up.
  18. Feb 16 21:47:31 <zooftop> Seems pretty clear to you it's a very specialized counter measure to that, and implies to you that it's primary means of working are well...okay, your occult roll
  19. Feb 16 21:48:17 <zooftop> When you were looking over this thing, your Clairsentient observation gave you very unsettling feelings. And in some ways reminded you of Annette's stuffed animal Ghost Pokemon.
  20. Feb 16 21:48:34 <zooftop> You think these things might literally have souls bound to them to animate them.
  21. Feb 16 21:49:26 <zooftop> As for your general EDU roll, you know from your background as a smith that most its weapons are very mundane. Well made, and letahl, but nothing super fancy about them. Just well made blades and such.
  22. Feb 16 21:49:46 <zooftop> That said, you think this idea is something you could replicate somehow, even without the soul binding part.
  23. Feb 16 21:50:48 <Saryx> Which gives Saryx a feeling of relief. He didn't have the slightest clue what else he could've possibly offered to Kal'fu to animate the dolls.
  24. Feb 16 21:53:10 <zooftop> That said, you aren't a robotics expert, but you do know two in particular! Chione, your arch nemesis of sorts...and Chase's large, burly friend who first added a skeletal system to one of these things back in Red Blade. Zeke.
  25. Feb 16 21:55:11 <Saryx> So clearly Saryx is going to try and get in contact with Zeke. 'cause Chione's probably busy enough already and he doesn't want to have to risk whipping it out just yet.
  26. Feb 16 21:55:14 <Saryx> ... The leash, that is.
  27. Feb 16 21:56:50 <zooftop> A quick phone call or two tells Saryx that Zeke is back home in Red Blade City at the moment! I also feel I should add that Saryx's payment for his dealings with the Darkfeather Peacekeepers could very easily front this if you guys actually produced something functional.
  28. Feb 16 21:58:33 <Saryx> And would Vegr be able to sew up a little Mawile for a prototype design?
  29. Feb 16 21:59:08 <Saryx> He'd like to bring one along with if she can when Saryx goes to hunt this guy down.
  30. Feb 16 22:00:07 <zooftop> Vegr is pretty eager to help sew up any sorta costume you got in mind, doesn't gotta be Mawile based! If Saryx wants to make little magical girl robots, Vegr will help sew up whatever silly thing you got in mind, Saryx.
  31. Feb 16 22:01:06 <Saryx> >Leaving design up to Saryx
  32. Feb 16 22:01:27 <Saryx> >implying the dolls won't all end up little Dratinis
  33. Feb 16 22:02:29 <Saryx> Cast would haet Saryx so much. ... Though he totally would want to make at least one of those if given the freedom. Bringing a Mawile plush for now, though. To start.
  34. Feb 16 22:03:07 <zooftop> Okay, so while the others were meeting Father Ruth...Vegr and Saryx made something that looks like : http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=118729
  35. Feb 16 22:03:30 <zooftop> Vegr was quite happy with the bow in particular :>
  36. Feb 16 22:05:52 <Saryx> And this is why Saryx still keeps Vegr in the party :>
  37. Feb 16 22:06:00 <zooftop> Vegr carries the doll you two made around with you, along with a box containing the wanga doll you recovered, around as you find Zeke's apartment. It's a pretty modest place, the sort of apartment complex you'd expect a guy in his 20's to have. Brick building with a little balcony, and shared laundry rooms.
  38. Feb 16 22:09:24 <Saryx> He's actually pretty eager to get to Zeke now that he's got a working model in hand. He probably ended up a bit too eager with the doorbell once he got to the front door of the apartment.
  39. Feb 16 22:11:13 <zooftop> When you knock on the door, the large guy answers the door wearing a simple white-t, basketball shorts, and eating a microwave corndog. You can hear some reggae playing from within the apartment. He looks down at you and Vegr. "Oh, hey, sup Saryx? Been a while huh?" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l1gLTeMP8Jo
  40. Feb 16 22:14:02 <Saryx> Right, that guy is like a foot and a half taller than him, isn't he? Saryx looks up to Zeke. "Hey~ And yeah, it has been a while. Since that meeting back when we all got started at Kent's office, right?"
  41. Feb 16 22:16:01 <Saryx> "Kinda here on business, though... Remember the Wanga Doll you were messing around with the first time we met? We're looking to make some of our own to fight an upgraded model of those."
  42. Feb 16 22:16:08 <zooftop> "Guess it has been huh? We were on tour a bit, tryin' to get those dolls out of towns and such on the side...but when they stopped puttin' them around things sorta slowed down."
  43. Feb 16 22:16:52 <zooftop> "...Really. Huh." You can see you've got his attention and interest. "Well come on in then." He starts back in to clean up some.
  44. Feb 16 22:17:33 <zooftop> His apartment is pretty tiny, just a small kitchen area that's packed with junk food and dishes, a kitchen table that seems to be more of a work table with all sorts of gadgets and wires and such on it, and a bathroom and bed room.
  45. Feb 16 22:19:07 <Saryx> Saryx follows along in, retrieving the box from Vegr as he does. Once he's found himself a spot to sit down, he unpacks the box, revealing the Wanga 2.0 "This right here's what we're looking to fight."
  46. Feb 16 22:21:04 <Saryx> "Functionally, it's just a powered up version of the first doll you had. ... Not to mention creepier... But the big thing with it is that the electric power's... Actually just a back-up."
  47. Feb 16 22:22:03 <Saryx> "I don't think we need to go that far ourselves, but the normal 'power' for these dolls is that they actually have living souls inside of 'em."
  48. Feb 16 22:22:08 <zooftop> He's in the process of cleaning the table of parts of a remote control car he's been tinkering with when he looks over, double takes, and yelps. "Holy shi - oh it's not. I. Shit just thought it was some kid's body at first."
  49. Feb 16 22:22:35 <zooftop> He seems a bit scared to touch it at first, and then looks over as if asking if it's safe to do so.
  50. Feb 16 22:22:37 <Saryx> ... How big is this doll in Saryx' hands?
  51. Feb 16 22:24:41 <zooftop> It's about four feet, Saryx
  52. Feb 16 22:24:58 <zooftop> Vegr's just holding her cute Mawile one and smiling :>
  53. Feb 16 22:25:09 <Saryx> Oh shit.
  54. Feb 16 22:25:40 <Saryx> No wonder Zeke's freaking out. I thought it was, like, six inches of almost-cuddly death or something!
  55. Feb 16 22:26:38 <Saryx> Either way, Saryx is almost certain that the doll won't rear back to life and start going stabby stabby on anyone, so he passes the doll over. And even if it does, he's got it covered~ ... He hopes.
  56. Feb 16 22:28:12 <zooftop> Zeke starts to look over it, and grabs a few tools to poke around with it. "Hm...You check out what's in this little computer in its head yet?"
  57. Feb 16 22:28:57 <zooftop> "Lot of this looks like the other ones, just better material. This steel is pretty serious stuff - and these clothes? Think they got kevlar in em."
  58. Feb 16 22:29:56 <Saryx> "We didn't take a look in there just yet. You and me are the first ones doing much of any looking into them."
  59. Feb 16 22:30:44 <Saryx> "... And kevlar? ... So these things are bulletproofed, too?!?"
  60. Feb 16 22:30:51 <zooftop> "Just a sec." he fishes around in his bed room and comes out with a computer moniter and a bunch of cables.
  61. Feb 16 22:31:16 <zooftop> "I dunno about bulletproof, but they got more armor than the little voodoo doll ones did."
  62. Feb 16 22:31:35 <zooftop> "Like, I never really got the feeling those things were meant for fighting, just recon. This though...complete combat ready from the looks of it."
  63. Feb 16 22:33:57 <zooftop> "So you said we were thinkin' of makin' our own combat robo or something?"
  64. Feb 16 22:34:44 <Saryx> "I was able to tell that much myself from the blades they got on 'em. ... But yeah, we're looking to make our own army of 'em!"
  65. Feb 16 22:35:39 <Saryx> "The doll Vegr's got sewn up in her arms is one idea for what we had, basing a design on Mawiles."
  66. Feb 16 22:35:58 <Saryx> ... Botherrer is now wondering how the hell this thing even sews when it's got blades for hands.
  67. Feb 16 22:36:05 <Saryx> It's fucking Charlie all over again!
  68. Feb 16 22:37:05 <zooftop> Vegr plops the doll on the table. Your prototype was mostly just stuffed with cotton, but it gets the general idea across.
  69. Feb 16 22:38:26 <zooftop> Zeke looks over a it, and double takes again. "Huh. Sorta funny. I mean, this one." He points at the one he's plugging all sorts of wires up to, "Sorta reminds me of a Banette."
  70. Feb 16 22:38:33 <zooftop> "Why the dress though?"
  71. Feb 16 22:39:43 <Saryx> "Uhhhhh..." Saryx looks at Vegr, with the '... Shit what do I say?!?' kind of look.
  72. Feb 16 22:40:09 <Saryx> "... It's, ummmm... El...ement of surprise?!?"
  73. Feb 16 22:40:39 <Saryx> "Yeah, that's right! No one's gonna expect something this adorable to actually murder 'em!"
  74. Feb 16 22:40:50 <Saryx> -murder +hurt
  75. Feb 16 22:41:51 <Saryx> Unless Zeke has the social skills of a brick... Yeah he should be able to tell Saryx and Vegr both thought it'd just be fucking adorable.
  76. Feb 16 22:41:54 <zooftop> "...Hm. Well, makes sense. I imagine they didn't make these ones look like little kid monsters for nothing either."
  77. Feb 16 22:42:21 <zooftop> Zeke has Rosetta tier people reading skills.
  78. Feb 16 22:43:09 <Saryx> A sigh of relief comes from Saryx upon hearing Zeke at least seems to believe it.
  79. Feb 16 22:44:55 <zooftop> Once Zeke has the thing plugged up and the moniter on he starts poking around with a keyboard as he continues to talk. "So what are we looking to do now? Try to get it moving? Chione gave me a few pointers a few weeks ago after seeing some of the toys I worked on, and even gave me an OS for em she claimed was proofed against the guys who made these evil things."
  80. Feb 16 22:45:44 <Saryx> Is he talking about the Mawile doll here, for clarity?
  81. Feb 16 22:46:43 <zooftop> He's talking about your goals for the Mawile bot, the 'evil one' refers to the wanga doll.
  82. Feb 16 22:48:43 <Saryx> "When Razor and I were talking about it, it just started as a joke while we were drinking that we'd make 'em to counter those robots."
  83. Feb 16 22:50:06 <Saryx> "But then we got more serious with it, so I wanna see what'd be possible with making these into the best super soldier robots we can make on our budget." Whatever amount of cash it was Saryx got from the Peacekeepers gig, he passes that number over as the budget.
  84. Feb 16 22:51:38 <zooftop> He looks over the numbers and goes a bit wide eyes. "Woah. Well, I ain't exactly sure how many we could produce with this much yet, but I meant more like what do we want this prototype to do?"
  85. Feb 16 22:52:29 <zooftop> "And like, do we want em to have some sorta personality? What sorta weapons and such? Maybe you could go somewhere with the Magical Girl thing but I don't really know all much about that myself."
  86. Feb 16 22:52:52 <zooftop> Though Saryx DOES know Doyle Sohn is also a huge dork, and Sandeep is a Fashionista, and Thomas knows Mawiles well...
  87. Feb 16 22:54:39 <Saryx> '. . ." Saryx looks at the Mawile plush Vegr's constructed. Then starts wiggling the jaws around. "... Do you think it'd be possible to make these jaws spin around like a helicopter?"
  88. Feb 16 22:58:06 <zooftop> "Hmm...maybe. We'd have to cut the top off of the head to make it so can rotor around, and I don't think a stuffed animal would get sufficient lift. I got a few toy Helicoptors we could cannibalize though."
  89. Feb 16 23:00:32 <zooftop> After a bit of poking around on the computer, Zeke speaks up. "This shit is unreadable. It's like a machine wrote it. All 0's and 1's, no source files at all."
  90. Feb 16 23:01:00 <zooftop> "Would have to get Chione to get any idea what it can do, I think. But I got some stuff we could work with..."
  91. Feb 16 23:02:58 <zooftop> "How about I get working on a robot skeleton for it, and you tell me what you want to get it to do, and your buddy Vegr can help with the modifications?"
  92. Feb 16 23:03:46 <Saryx> "Yeah, the girl working with the one responsible for the dolls has a whole bunch of robots working for her, sort of... Wouldn't surprise me that it's all binary."
  93. Feb 16 23:04:42 <Saryx> Unfortunately, Saryx wouldn't think to suggest at least a basic thing like 'why not try and see if the binary directly translates into the Visiwan language?' (And if he were, Zeke probably already tried it already.)
  94. Feb 16 23:05:09 <zooftop> There ARE folks that can do that but Zeke can't :P
  95. Feb 16 23:05:25 <zooftop> He's suggesting they'd need a robot to read the 0's and 1's.
  96. Feb 16 23:05:58 <Saryx> "... But yeah, that sounds like a plan. I'll call someone who knows more about Mawiles and see what other ideas he can throw into the mix, though I got a couple of my own we can start working with as well."
  97. Feb 16 23:06:36 <zooftop> Zeke comes back out with a bunch of Pokemon plushes that he's got skeletal structures inside and with Vegr's help starts to get them out of them. "Did you want this to be remote controlled, or give it its own A.I.?"
  98. Feb 16 23:09:36 <Saryx> "Ideally, giving the dolls their own programming would be good, since I don't think we can exactly control the dolls and fight all too well at the same time."
  99. Feb 16 23:10:40 <zooftop> "Alright, I got a copy of the OS Chione uses for her bots, so that'll work..."
  100. Feb 16 23:11:51 <zooftop> You watch them work for a bit as Vegr carefully cuts open the Mawile doll and helps him fit in the robotic frame and a small computer. "We can turn it on and off from an app on a phone or anything like that."
  101. Feb 16 23:12:54 <zooftop> The last thing he does is take out the button eyes for some LED eyes. And when he's done he takes out his phone and tinkers a bit...and the eyes flare up blue! It slowly stands up and looks around the room.
  102. Feb 16 23:13:15 <zooftop> "It's going through its start up. You wanna set yourself as its 'master' or something?"
  103. Feb 16 23:15:12 <zooftop> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9FlMue9BHp4
  104. Feb 16 23:15:45 <Saryx> Saryx looks over at Zeke real quick, before deciding he probably don't know shit about animus and that it's perfectly safe to proceed with an idea he'll probably regret later. "Tell her to call me 'Senpai.'"
  105. Feb 16 23:15:52 <zooftop> "Hell even Vegr could be set up for that if you want." Vegr :O'
  106. Feb 16 23:16:45 <zooftop> Zeke seems confused, but nods and tinkers with it. A speaker from within the Mawile bot chimes up, when looking at you, "Sen-pie." It's a rather robot text-to-speechy voice at the moment.
  107. Feb 16 23:17:08 <zooftop> "It's got no personality or anything like that at the moment, just bare bones. Can customize that though."
  108. Feb 16 23:18:13 <Saryx> "We can work on that later once we have her functional, I think."
  109. Feb 16 23:18:53 <zooftop> "If you wanna try the helicopter thing...well think we could make it spin, but think the bot itself would have to be fully metal for it to work well. Or at least the Maw part."
  110. Feb 16 23:19:13 <zooftop> "Could also like, I dunno, put little engines on its feet like Iron Man or something and make it LOOK like it's spinning..."
  111. Feb 16 23:19:23 <zooftop> "I don't really got the tools for that though, would have to go visit Chione."
  112. Feb 16 23:19:47 <Saryx> Saryx has already decided in his head that this first draft of the Mawilebot's gonna be staying on the boat. And he's gonna have so much fun with her.
  113. Feb 16 23:22:14 <Saryx> "... You think the jet engines on its feet would be more efficient? ... And is having the maw made out of metal exactly a bad thing?"
  114. Feb 16 23:22:57 <Saryx> "Like... Would that make her just something that could be easily immobilized with, like, a giant magnet or something that she'd end up stuck to it forever?"
  115. Feb 16 23:22:59 <zooftop> "I dunno to be honest, I just like tinkerin' with stuff."
  116. Feb 16 23:27:05 <Saryx> "Well, the flight I think is a good idea since it'd give her a mobility advantage on the Wanga Dolls... Probably would be a good idea to give her some kind of ranged combat ability as well, too."
  117. Feb 16 23:28:04 <zooftop> "Like some lasers and stuff? Mhm...You haven't fought Chione yet have ya? Her bots are pretty rad. Think she'd have a field day with this sorta thing."
  118. Feb 16 23:28:18 <Saryx> "I'm not sure just what we'd use yet, but if these things are just dolls with metal plating... Well, flamethrowers wouldn't be the best idea, would they? They'd catch fire themselves... Hmmm... Doubt we'd be able to short 'em out with water, either..."
  119. Feb 16 23:28:40 <Saryx> "Aaand we haven't just yet, though I at least plan to take on her challenge."
  120. Feb 16 23:29:15 <zooftop> "Well, what if like, your friend Rosetta tried to put Unowns on it to use Hidden Power?"
  121. Feb 16 23:29:18 <zooftop> "Think that'd work?"
  122. Feb 16 23:29:37 <zooftop> "Would throw those Grant guys for a loop too."
  123. Feb 16 23:30:25 <Saryx> "That... That'd probably work real well, yeah! It's give 'em a whole big deal of versatility, too!"
  124. Feb 16 23:32:26 <Saryx> "... As far as I know, Razor can only bring a new one out every so often, but I think I know who we can ask for a whole bunch. ... And that would make 'em not really need the AI, either, right? If they had Unown controlling 'em?"
  125. Feb 16 23:33:42 <Saryx> Saryx finally realizes now would be a good time to take out something to put notes on, scrambling to pull out a sheet of graph paper as he starts taking down his "To Do" list for this project. Notes thus far: 'Thomas - Mawile 101. The Writer - Unowns for the 'AI' of the Bots."
  126. Feb 16 23:33:51 <zooftop> "Well I dunno about controllin' them, more like a...synergistic thing. I dunno how that stuff works we'd have to ask her or her cousin or something right? Or that Shark Fighter dude."
  127. Feb 16 23:35:22 <zooftop> "What I'm thinking at the moment is we could, like, make em out of something durable but light weight and make the dresses out of kevlar and such. Put some plating under the skin and go from there. I don't got much for weapons to put on it at the moment unless we sewed kitchen knives to its arms."
  128. Feb 16 23:35:43 <zooftop> "What it CAN do right off the bat though is anything Chione's basic bot A.I. can. Safe to say it knows kung fu."
  129. Feb 16 23:37:30 <Saryx> "If we need weapons or armor, I can craft those myself. But if this thing's kung fu's any good..." a pause to think. "... Can we go up to the roof to see how well it fights?"
  130. Feb 16 23:39:49 <zooftop> "Well it's made of cotton mostly, but sure."
  131. Feb 16 23:39:58 <zooftop> "Tell it to follow you or something."
  132. Feb 16 23:41:00 <Saryx> "Alright, Zeke!" Saryx faces the Mawile. "Come this way, girl!" ... He totally is gonna need to come up with a name for her later.
  133. Feb 16 23:41:35 <zooftop> "Yes, Sen-pie." It hops off the table and looks up at you.
  134. Feb 16 23:41:45 <zooftop> Vegr squees a bit. A buggy, shrill squee.
  135. Feb 16 23:44:20 <Saryx> Saryx can't help but "D'aaaaw" himself at the Mawilebot, if just a little bit.
  136. Feb 16 23:44:26 <Saryx> "... Alright, Zeke, which way to the roof?"
  137. Feb 16 23:44:44 <Saryx> He asks only after taking a moment following his heart melting to recompose himself.
  138. Feb 16 23:46:56 <zooftop> Zeke shows you up to the roof of the building. It's only two stories but no one's up here either way.
  139. Feb 16 23:47:11 <zooftop> The little robot has issues with staircases, as it wasn't a really BIG plushy, so Vegr helps it up.
  140. Feb 16 23:48:05 <Saryx> ... Saryx is so taking a picture of this.
  141. Feb 16 23:49:32 <zooftop> Once you're up on the roof though what's your game plan?
  142. Feb 16 23:50:40 <Saryx> Saryx just wants to see how well the thing can fight on Chione's Kung Fu programming.
  143. Feb 16 23:51:36 <Saryx> Spar with it for a bit, not really going on the offensive himself, but seeing if it can at least hit him when he's on the defensive, see if it's actually good at fighting.
  144. Feb 16 23:52:02 <zooftop> Well, it's waiting for your commands. It's not entirely autonomous at the moment. If you command it to try to fight, it makes a boxing pose, and starts hopping in place.
  145. Feb 16 23:52:17 <zooftop> Zeke speaks up. "I know I said kung fu, but Chione's more a boxer fan, so yeah."
  146. Feb 16 23:53:07 <Saryx> "As long as it can fight, that's good enough to start!"
  147. Feb 16 23:53:56 <zooftop> You're way faster than it is though, so Saryx > Robo Mawile :P
  148. Feb 16 23:54:57 <Saryx> "Come on, girl! Let's see what you got?" Saryx used Taunt! ... okay, so it's not like he actually knows the move, but he's letting it take the initiative.
  149. Feb 16 23:55:15 <zooftop> The Mawile hops over and MEGA PAUNCHu
  150. Feb 16 23:55:16 <zooftop> 1d20
  151. Feb 16 23:55:17 <DiceMaid-9001> zooftop, 1d20: 13 [1d20=13]
  152. Feb 16 23:55:18 <Saryx> He's got his wooden buckler since he doesn't plan to be doing much for the hitting just yet.
  153. Feb 16 23:55:28 <zooftop> It bops you in the leg.
  154. Feb 16 23:56:29 <Saryx> The shield gets used to block the attack (using that action he didn't use as an Interrupt to trigger the Shield's benefits). "Nice try. Keep at it, though!"
  155. Feb 16 23:56:55 <Saryx> Saryx takes the buckler and tries to bop the Mawile bot.
  156. Feb 16 23:56:57 <Saryx> 1d20 Struggle
  157. Feb 16 23:56:57 <DiceMaid-9001> Saryx, Struggle: 13 [1d20=13]
  158. Feb 16 23:57:16 <zooftop> 3d8+12
  159. Feb 16 23:57:16 <DiceMaid-9001> zooftop, 3d8+12: 20 [3d8=6,1,1]
  160. Feb 16 23:57:22 <zooftop> It's made of, well, cotton, so yeah
  161. Feb 16 23:57:43 <Saryx> Yeah, it doesn't hurt Saryx at all (Well, maybe 1 HP).
  162. Feb 16 23:57:47 <zooftop> You hit with your struggle as well!
  163. Feb 16 23:57:53 <Saryx> 1d8+17 if I need a damage roll
  164. Feb 16 23:57:54 <DiceMaid-9001> Saryx, if I need a damage roll: 22 [1d8=5]
  165. Feb 16 23:58:19 <zooftop> You bop it and it falls on its butt, and gracefully gets back up.
  166. Feb 16 23:58:23 <zooftop> Doesn't seem very damaged.
  167. Feb 16 23:58:44 <Saryx> "Even like this, she doesn't seem to have much trouble taking a hit at least."
  168. Feb 16 23:59:36 <Saryx> Saryx is pleased. "Come on, girl! You're gonna have to outsmart me if you wanna get past my shield!"
  169. Feb 16 23:59:40 <zooftop> "Yeah she's got good form and can move and handle reactions well."
  170. Feb 17 00:00:40 <Saryx> "I wanna see if she's able to 'learn,' at least. If the robots can adapt to circumstances."
  171. Feb 17 00:01:06 <zooftop> The Mawile winds up annnnd.... it's winding up something.
  172. Feb 17 00:02:27 <Saryx> Saryx pulls out an empty PokeBall. He doesn't activate it for a capture, but chucks it at the Mawile. Just to see if it can dodge it. "Think fast, girl!"
  173. Feb 17 00:02:29 <Saryx> 1d20
  174. Feb 17 00:02:30 <DiceMaid-9001> Saryx, 1d20: 3 [1d20=3]
  175. Feb 17 00:02:39 <Saryx> . . . Well, that's underwhelming.
  176. Feb 17 00:02:50 <zooftop> It side steps it easily, and then waddles up and Focus Punches you in the shin
  177. Feb 17 00:02:51 <zooftop> 1d20
  178. Feb 17 00:02:51 <DiceMaid-9001> zooftop, 1d20: 17 [1d20=17]
  179. Feb 17 00:02:58 <zooftop> 5d12+30
  180. Feb 17 00:02:58 <DiceMaid-9001> zooftop, 5d12+30: 53 [5d12=6,5,7,2,3]
  181. Feb 17 00:03:10 <zooftop> You're pushed back by the blow!
  182. Feb 17 00:04:17 <Saryx> Saryx... Lets out a cry of pain as he flops over. "Yeowch!" He looks at Zeke. "Did you put a metal plate in its fist or something when I wasn't lookng?!?"
  183. Feb 17 00:05:38 <zooftop> "No it just knows how to fight. All her bots come with basic martial arts knowledge."
  184. Feb 17 00:06:40 <Saryx> "But that's... Just a... It's not even..." Saryx is baffled.
  185. Feb 17 00:07:02 <Saryx> ... And then the lightbulb goes off. "... Wait, it's not even... It's not even suited up properly! This is amazing!"
  186. Feb 17 00:07:05 <zooftop> "Are you okay, Sen-pie?"
  187. Feb 17 00:07:22 <Saryx> Well, that was a quick turnabout.
  188. Feb 17 00:08:00 <Saryx> ... Aaand then Saryx explodes into a pile of 'hnnngh~'
  189. Feb 17 00:08:47 <Saryx> "Y-y-yeah, of course I'm fine!"
  190. Feb 17 00:09:53 <Saryx> "Come on, girl! Do it again! And this time put everything you've got into it!" Saryx used 'Give It Your All!' on the Mawilebot.
  191. Feb 17 00:10:04 <Saryx> ... This can only end in tears.
  192. Feb 17 00:11:46 <zooftop> The Mawile jumps back, and then makes a running kick at you.
  193. Feb 17 00:11:50 <zooftop> 1d20 hi jump kick
  194. Feb 17 00:11:51 <DiceMaid-9001> zooftop, hi jump kick: 14 [1d20=14]
  195. Feb 17 00:12:02 <zooftop> 4d10+10
  196. Feb 17 00:12:02 <DiceMaid-9001> zooftop, 4d10+10: 30 [4d10=2,4,10,4]
  197. Feb 17 00:13:42 <Saryx> ... Okay, Saryx isn't getting hurt by that... But for some reason he wants to make the Mawile feel good, so he lets himself be knocked over by it.
  198. Feb 17 00:14:15 <Saryx> ... Waaait, this is a robot. One that didn't even have feelings programmed into it yet. Why is he even bothering to think about its feelings?!?
  199. Feb 17 00:14:53 <zooftop> Once the kick is done it repeats the questiojn, "Are you okay, Sen-pie?"
  200. Feb 17 00:15:21 <Saryx> ... Okay, that's why he let it knock him over.
  201. Feb 17 00:16:34 <Saryx> "Yeah, I'm alright~ You're incredible, though!" Saryx looks over to Zeke. "I think we'll be good just modifying them physically to make the most of their boxing."
  202. Feb 17 00:17:22 <zooftop> "Well if it's Mawile might as well make use of the chompers, but yeah guess we could figure that out later. Uh...lesse here."
  203. Feb 17 00:17:42 <zooftop> "You wanna take this one with ya? Figure you might wanna show it around to get some input."
  204. Feb 17 00:18:13 <Saryx> "Yeah, I'm definitely thinking to bring this one back to the boat!"
  205. Feb 17 00:19:12 <Saryx> "Though you think we can put a personality onto her? ... And maybe a more natural voice, too?"
  206. Feb 17 00:19:27 <zooftop> "Yeah for sure."
  207. Feb 17 00:19:32 <Saryx> It begins.
  208. Feb 17 00:20:20 <Saryx> So much for getting actual business accomplished.
  209. Feb 17 00:21:44 <zooftop> "Alright, i'll go find another Mawile plush at a store and do some tinkerin' myself to see what I can do with what I got in the mean time. Lemee know how people react to this one bro."
  210. Feb 17 00:22:37 <Saryx> "I most certainly will, Zeke!"
  211. Feb 17 00:23:08 <Saryx> ... Zeke is going to have to endure the misfortune of Saryx asking him to basically turn the Mawile into a Treegirl.
  212. Feb 17 00:23:46 <Saryx> ... You know, minus the part where the Treegirl actually turns out to be a backstabbing evil bitch or have some secret agenda with massive implications on the plot.
  213. Feb 17 00:26:30 <zooftop> That about all Saryx wants to cover for now though?
  214. Feb 17 00:27:37 <Saryx> Well, unless you want to show me what would happen when Saryx goes to Doyle for feedback and Sandeep happens... Sure~
  215. Feb 17 00:28:03 <Saryx> Because you seemed pretty psyche about that.
  216. Feb 17 00:28:11 <zooftop> Okay, so when you and Vegr get back to the boat with your mecha mawile
  217. Feb 17 00:28:32 <zooftop> you find a pink haired, 14 year old mermaid in a kiddy pool in the common room of your boat.
  218. Feb 17 00:28:35 <zooftop> </catch up>
  219. Feb 17 00:30:16 <Saryx> ". . ." Saryx staaares at the mermaid on the boat for a good moment.
  220. Feb 17 00:30:45 <zooftop> "Hi! I'm Pi!" (And done for reals now :P)
