==BEGIN==
Rasnela
SL: Awright I be connected and looking at ye right now I think
@Lucy_Chromwell
CS: Cool! You seeing everything?
Rasnela
SL: Eeyup. Hey this is pretty cool
Rasnela goes to pick something up with the cursor
Lazy
You click on Lucy's bed and pick it up
@Lucy_Chromwell
CS: Oy, oy!
CS: That's mah bed
Rasnela
SL: Holy shit I can lift everything!
Rasnela puts it back down
@Lucy_Chromwell
CS: Thenk ye
Rasnela
SL: Lemme see where the machines are...
Rasnela scrolls around the menu for the machines
Lazy
You find them in the Phernalia Registry.
Rasnela
Rasnela looks for a good place to put the cruxtruder
@Lucy_Chromwell
CS: So what are these machines?
Rasnela
SL: Cruxtruder, Totem Lathe and Alchemiter. I be putting down the Cruxtruder first
@Lucy_Chromwell
CS: Sounds cool. What do the machines do?
Rasnela
SL: Didnt the website say something about 'em?
@Lucy_Chromwell
CS: Ahh, yea! Forgot that
CS: Hell, I even forgot the names of the machines
Rasnela
SL: I think ya pop open one...throw a thing into whatever pops out?
@Lucy_Chromwell
CS: Yea, I re-read our chat and the instructions on the HELP page
Lazy
It looks like there's some space in the diner.
Rasnela
Rasnela plops it down in the diner
SL: K its in the diner.
@Lucy_Chromwell
CS: What's in the diner?
Rasnela
She goes to place the alchemiter next, any other places to put it in the diner?
SL: The Cruxtruder
@Lucy_Chromwell
CS: Gotcha
Lazy
You could probably make some space for it if you move some of the chairs and tables
@Lucy_Chromwell
CS: Imma move to mobile and check things out
Rasnela
Ras begins making some space, stacking chairs and tables on each other
@Lucy_Chromwell
I pull out my phone and head downstairs to the diner to see what's up
Lazy
There is a large tube thing in the middle of your diner.
@Lucy_Chromwell
That's gotta be the cruxtruder, then
CS: So what else you plan on placing here in the diner?
Rasnela
SL: The alchemiter
@Lucy_Chromwell
CS: Cool, don't make a mess when you place it, kay?
Rasnela
SL: I'll try!
Lazy
As Ras is trying to place the alchemiter, Jason comes in out of the kitchen and sees what's happening to the diner
Jason: "Wh- What the hell?"
@Lucy_Chromwell
"Oh! Jason, how're things holding up on your end?"
"This is that game I talked about"
Rasnela
SL: I think we've been found out lass
@Lucy_Chromwell
"Yea I know it's weird as hell"
Lazy
Jason: "What's happening?"
@Lucy_Chromwell
"My friend and I are doing some co-op right now to play the game I told you about"
"She's gotta place down machines and stuff"
"and I gotta operate them to get us away from meteor-death"
Rasnela
Ras places down the alchemiter
Lazy
Jason: "What? What are you talking about?"
@Lucy_Chromwell
"I told you about this after the meteor fell"
Rasnela
SL: Huh werid. Hey Lucy I got a present fer ya
@Lucy_Chromwell
"I found a game website that predicted the mess that the meteor caused"
Rasnela
Rasnela pokes Lucy with the punched card
@Lucy_Chromwell
CS: Oy! I'm chatting with my bro here
Lazy
Jason: "What are you- how is a game doing this?"
@Lucy_Chromwell
I snatch the card and keep talking to Jason
"Yea, I honestly don't know ~how~ the game is doing this"
Rasnela
SL: Okay okay. I'll go find a place fer da last machine
@Lucy_Chromwell
"But I do know that it's better than getting hit by a meteor"
Rasnela
Rasnela looks for a place for the totem lathe
Lazy
Jason looks a little dumbfounded. He sits behind the counter and watches what's happening.
@Lucy_Chromwell
"Cool, just hang out there while I get this done"
Lazy
Ras: You could probably squeeze it in at the front of the store.
@Lucy_Chromwell
"When we're through this, help me keep mom and the others calm about this, kay?"
Rasnela
You squeeze it infront of the store
Lazy
Jason: "O... Okay..."
Rasnela
SL: K I think that be all of 'em!
@Lucy_Chromwell
"I'm sorry for all the trouble and confusion this is causing"
"But I don't wanna risk losing you guys"
I head over to the cruxtruder and check it out
Lazy
The diner is looking a little cluttered, but you should be able to navigate through it normally.
Lucy: It's a machine that's somewhat taller than you are. The tube on top is closed off by a cap.
@Lucy_Chromwell
Huh. Well, caps are made for unscrewing and/or removing
I get out a nice, big dagger, jam it under the cap, and try popping it off
Lazy
Lucy: No use. It's stuck on there good. The tutorial mentioned that they dropped something heavy on it.
@Lucy_Chromwell
CS: Hey Ras, couldja try finding something heavy and inconsequential and chuck it at the cruxtruder's cap?
Rasnela
SL: Does an oven work?
@Lucy_Chromwell
CS: nonononnonononononnonon
Rasnela
SL: Uuuh.. kitchen counter?
@Lucy_Chromwell
CS: Something like a bowling ball or maybe a pointlessly heavy statuette
Rasnela
SL: M'k.
@Lucy_Chromwell
CS: Please don't chuck an oven
Rasnela
Rasnela looks around the house for heavy objects
Lazy
Ras: A stack of tables might be heavy enough
Rasnela
SL: How does a stack of tables work?
@Lucy_Chromwell
CS: nonononononononononono don't chuck tables
CS: You're gonna wreck the place like that
Rasnela
SL: Fucking hell are ye really worried about TABLES when yer life be in danger?
@Lucy_Chromwell
CS: D'ya have any idea how likely I am to get smacked by a table if you chuck around a stack of them?
CS: Just chuck my dad's bowling ball at the cap
CS: He's got like one or two
Rasnela
SL: Alright. Fair. Why dont ye get yer brother's help ta pop it open?
Rasnela searches for the bowling ball
@Lucy_Chromwell
CS: Sure, I'll ask Jason if he wants to help
Lazy
Ras: You find one of them in a shelf in some bedroom, presumably Lucy's parent's.
@Lucy_Chromwell
"Hey Jason, couldja please help me pop the cap to this tube-machine off?"
Rasnela
Rasnela grabs it and goes to drop it on the cruxtruder.
SL: Heads up! Found it!
@Lucy_Chromwell
"If my friend can't get the cap off, that is"
CS: Got it!
Lazy
Ras: As you drop the bowling ball on the cruxtruder, a flash of light envelops the diner and a light blue orb floats out of the tube, as well as a few light blue cylinders. The cap rests on the floor.
@Lucy_Chromwell
"Okay, no help needed, thankfully"
Rasnela
SL: Well dat works. So...what should we throw into ta orb?
@Lucy_Chromwell
CS: Lemme think for a bit while I do stuff
Lazy
Jason: "Uh, what is that? Is it dangerous?"
@Lucy_Chromwell
"No, it's not dangerous"
Rasnela
SL: We should throw somethin' funny into it
@Lucy_Chromwell
"It's like a helper"
CS: I'm up for putting something funny in it, but lemme think
@Lucy_Chromwell
I grab a light blue cylinder, head over to the totem lathe, put the cylinder in the clamps, push the pre-punched card into its slot, and look for some kinda button or something to activate it
Lazy
Lucy: As you're thinking about what to put in it, the time on the cruxtuder ticks down. It currently reads 6:54.
Rasnela
SL: Lass put yer thinkpan into overdrive
SL: Ye got a ticking clock of death right there
@Lucy_Chromwell
CS: Oy, it's barely been like 10-20 seconds
CS: I've got some time to think
Lazy
Lucy: the lathe whirs to life and carves the cylinder into a weird totem
@Lucy_Chromwell
Neat
Lazy
Jason: "How do you know what to do?"
@Lucy_Chromwell
"The game website had a neat little tutorial"
"I'm just following the steps"
Lazy
Jason: "Alright... what's the next step?"
Rasnela
SL: Yeah but after ya put it on we dont know what ta do
@Lucy_Chromwell
"I think I have an idea"
I grab the weird totem and take it to the alchemiter
I look for some kinda way to use it with the totem
Lazy
Lucy: There's a little pedestal next to the giant pad
@Lucy_Chromwell
Also neat
CS: Kay, I think I have an idea of what to put in the weird little orb
Rasnela
SL: Okay. What is it
@Lucy_Chromwell
CS: One of my brothers has a buncha hero action figures
CS: Like the lovable nerd he is
Rasnela
SL: Okay.
@Lucy_Chromwell
CS: Try throwing one of them into the orb
Rasnela
SL: sure. Any preference?
@Lucy_Chromwell
CS: Nah
Rasnela
Rasnela goes to look at the hero action figures
@Lucy_Chromwell
Alrighty then, I put the weird totem on the little pedestal
Can't see any other use for it, either way
Lazy
Ras: You spy them in one of the rooms all over the floor. Wow, there really are a lot of action figures.
Rasnela
Holy crap. Does he have All might, mt. Lady or Ingenium?
SL: I would say put in all might but dat seems like a bad idea
@Lucy_Chromwell
CS: Idk, really
CS: Try throwing in something simple
Rasnela
SL: I mean Allen might do it
@Lucy_Chromwell
CS: Don't wanna make this game too complicated
Rasnela
SL: How bout Mt. Lady?
@Lucy_Chromwell
CS: She's cool, I guess
Rasnela
SL: Ingenium?
@Lucy_Chromwell
CS: Also cool
Lazy
Lucy: The alchemiter whirs to life. The arm on it scans the totem and retracts once it's finished. Suddenly, a lavish table filled with food appears on the alchemiter, and it disappears just as quickly, leaving behind a blue bottle.
@Lucy_Chromwell
Huh...
Weird...
I grab the bottle
Rasnela
Rasnela grabs Mt. Lady figurian and goes to hurl it at the seizure orb thing
SL: Uuuh...the fuck do you do with it
@Lucy_Chromwell
CS: Do with wut
CS: This bottle?
CS: I'unno
Lazy
Ras: In another flash of light, the orb takes the form of Mt. Lady's plastic face
Rasnela
SL: Is there any liquid in it?
@Lucy_Chromwell
CS: I'm checking right now
Rasnela
SL: ...WTF DID I JUST DO
Lazy
Lucy: There's something white substance in it. It's probably milk.
@Lucy_Chromwell
Huh....
Also weird...
I try pouring a drop onto my finger and taste it
Lazy
Lucy: Yep, it's milk
@Lucy_Chromwell
Huh
Bottom's up!
I take a swig of the milk
Rasnela
SL: Chug chug!
Lazy
Lucy: You drink the bottle. A white glow surrounds your house, which quickly intensifies into a blinding fury of intense light. The house shakes as the light grows stronger. After a minute, it fades and goes away.
Lazy
Welcome to the Land of Bloom and Hours!
