May 25 20:37:51 <tretter>       "This looks normal."
May 25 20:38:12 <Tehpillowstar> "Never assume something is normal just because it looks like it."
May 25 20:38:15 <Gara>  Loren turns on her flashlight, enters, and scans.
May 25 20:38:20 <Tehpillowstar> "We're not called here for nothing."

May 25 20:38:45 <Alivi> Eriko sighs, "Why is it that this happens when most of security is gone."
May 25 20:38:48 <Tehpillowstar> Chloe turns on her flashlight despite it still being light out, and steps in.
May 25 20:38:55 <Snowshoe>      Stoat, there is not a prefab on the other side of that door. You see a dark, grey hallway. Black ash hangs in the air. There are four doors lining the hall, two on the left and two on the right. At the end of the hallway is another door, facing you.
May 25 20:39:15 <Tehpillowstar> "...Called it."
May 25 20:39:17 <Snowshoe>      It is absolutely silent in the hall.
May 25 20:39:20 <Alivi> Eriko frowns, "….Not good..."
May 25 20:39:28 <Gara>  "... Huh."
May 25 20:39:30 <Alivi> "Chloe shut up."
May 25 20:39:43 <lurkd> Elif begins to sweat a bit.
May 25 20:39:52 <tretter>       "Did a bomb go off in here?"
May 25 20:40:00 <tretter>       "Actually, where is here?"
May 25 20:40:10 <Tehpillowstar> Chloe steps in, and hesitates. She wonders what would happen if she tried opening doors.
May 25 20:40:32 <Gara>  "Lets figure that out. Lets see whats behind door number one."
May 25 20:40:38 <tretter>       Ross steps in
May 25 20:40:42 <Alivi> Eriko goes near Stoat.
May 25 20:40:48 <Tehpillowstar> "Why don't we try the door at the end first?"
May 25 20:40:57 <Snowshoe>      There is, conveniently, a door labeled 1A. The others are labeled 1B through 1D. The door at the end is unlabeled.
May 25 20:41:12 <Tehpillowstar> redact last two statements
May 25 20:41:27 <Soulless>      "..."
May 25 20:41:30 <Tehpillowstar> "Okay...who wants to go first."
May 25 20:41:30 <tretter>       Ross shivers. He doesn't like it here. Too dark.
May 25 20:41:36 <Snowshoe>      The door at the end of the hall is different from the others. There's no handle, just a keypad beside it.
May 25 20:41:40 <Soulless>      Stoat shines her flashlight in.
May 25 20:42:00 <Snowshoe>      The beam catches on the black ash hanging in the air, casting weird shadows on the walls. Nothing moves.
May 25 20:42:03 *       Pres (Mibbit@A06157DB.51680240.AF729590.IP) has joined
May 25 20:42:04 *       ChanServ gives channel operator status to Pres
May 25 20:42:21 <Soulless>      She starts to head in first. "Which room first."
May 25 20:42:25 <Gara>  Loren walks over to door 1A, scanning the room as she goes.
May 25 20:42:41 <Alivi> Eriko looks in 1A
May 25 20:42:43 <lurkd> Elif grips her large pipe wrench tightly.  "Loren, be careful."
May 25 20:42:44 <tretter>       "First is the worst, let's try the second."
May 25 20:42:57 <Gara>  She opens the door.
May 25 20:42:58 <Tehpillowstar> "We might have to go in order."
May 25 20:43:14 <lurkd> Elif stands behind Loren.
May 25 20:44:02 <Snowshoe>      Loren, room 1A appears to be a standard electrical room. There's equipment you don't know shit about lying around the room, though Elif can identify some of it. Thick electrical cables run up and down the walls, and the same black ash hangs in the air.
May 25 20:44:27 <Tehpillowstar> Chloe enters 1A and looks around.
May 25 20:44:33 <tretter>       "No, really, where are we?"
May 25 20:44:41 <Soulless>      "Pool bullshit. Where we are."
May 25 20:44:48 <Tehpillowstar> She wished she had some paper mask so she doesn't breathe in this weird black ash.
May 25 20:45:00 <lurkd> 6df+5 perception, identify equipment
May 25 20:45:01 <Glacon>        lurkd: perception, identify equipment: 5 (6df+5=0, +, 0, 0, -, 0)
May 25 20:45:03 <tretter>       <<Are you guys still out there.>> Ross radios the containment team outside.
May 25 20:45:08 <Alivi> Does the black ash interfere with their breathing?
May 25 20:45:24 <Snowshoe>      Not at all, it just hangs in the air.
May 25 20:45:45 <Gara>  Loren steps in, looking around.
May 25 20:45:46 <Snowshoe>      Ross, you don't get a response.
May 25 20:46:24 <tretter>       << Repeat, are you guys still there?>>
May 25 20:46:31 <Snowshoe>      Elif, you can identify a lump of metal in one corner as a generator, though one sorely in need of love. Pieces of it are corroded away, and it seems to be missing some parts.
May 25 20:46:34 <Gara>  <<We're here.>>
May 25 20:46:49 <Alivi> Eriko goes back to the hallway.
May 25 20:46:56 <lurkd> "Guys, there's a generator here."
May 25 20:47:04 <Tehpillowstar> "Maybe you can fix it?"
May 25 20:47:12 <Snowshoe>      You can identify some pieces of scrap laying around as replacement parts.
May 25 20:47:26 <tretter>       "Loren, I know you're here. I was checking with the team outside."
May 25 20:47:27 <lurkd> Elif gets to work.
May 25 20:47:28 <Snowshoe>      Eriko, there's nothing in the hallway but more ash and some doors.
May 25 20:47:37 <Snowshoe>      Engineering, Elif.
May 25 20:47:48 <tretter>       Ross is still in the hallway.
May 25 20:47:53 <Gara>  "Oh good. Making sure you know."
May 25 20:47:56 <lurkd> 6df+7 fix-it felix!
May 25 20:47:56 <Glacon>        lurkd: fix-it felix!: 7 (6df+7=+, -, 0, +, 0, -)
May 25 20:47:56 <Alivi> Eriko looks at the doors, is there any windows or anything?
May 25 20:48:10 <Tehpillowstar> Chloe glances at the entrance. Is it still there?
May 25 20:48:16 <Snowshoe>      There's no way to see what's inside the other rooms without first opening the doors.
May 25 20:48:24 <Snowshoe>      The entrance doesn't look like it's going anywhere.
May 25 20:48:26 <Tehpillowstar> *Entrance of this strange place.
May 25 20:48:48 <Soulless>      She opens 1B.
May 25 20:48:48 <Alivi> Eriko sighs. She opens the door of 1b just to see.
May 25 20:49:04 <Snowshoe>      Elif successfully fixes the generator, though it remains unpowered. You can turn it on.
May 25 20:49:37 <lurkd> "Here goes nothing."  Elif turns the ignition key to the generator.
May 25 20:49:41 <Snowshoe>      Eriko, room 1B is filled with rows of glass-fronted vats. The room is much larger than 1A, and you can't see details from the outside.
May 25 20:50:13 <tretter>       "Oh, I guess my statement was wrong. The second was worse than the first."
May 25 20:50:20 <Gara>  Loren walks back into the hallway.
May 25 20:50:47 <Tehpillowstar> Seeing that Elif is doing good work, Chloe walks out of 1A, glances at the entrance, then tries to open the door to 1C.
May 25 20:50:57 <Tehpillowstar> She does it very carefully, not throwing open the door.
May 25 20:51:01 <Snowshoe>      As Elif powers the generator, the lights inside 1A flicker on, casting a dim light from above. The lights are so coated in ash that they cast no light.
May 25 20:51:12 <Gara>  Loren walks with Chloe to 1C
May 25 20:51:14 <Snowshoe>      The unmarked, handle-less door in the hallway beeps.
May 25 20:51:37 <Tehpillowstar> Chloe flinches, and stares at the unmarked door.
May 25 20:51:42 <Alivi> Eriko goes to see the glass fronted vats
May 25 20:51:47 *       Magnobile has quit (Connection reset by peer)
May 25 20:51:51 <tretter>       Ross peeks his head out of the door. "Did one of your PDAs beep?"
May 25 20:51:59 *       Magnobile (~Magnolia@synIRC-A96BEDEB.cinci.res.rr.com) has joined
May 25 20:52:04 <Tehpillowstar> "No, it's the unmarked door."
May 25 20:52:10 <lurkd> Elif walks toward the unmarked door.  "I guess it has power now?"
May 25 20:52:12 <Gara>  Loren opens C1.
May 25 20:52:29 <Snowshoe>      Eriko, there are humans suspended inside the vats, hooked to the top of the vats by rubber tubes that feed into their skin.
May 25 20:52:42 <Snowshoe>      They do not react to your presence.
May 25 20:52:44 <tretter>       Ross walks over to the door. "Someone shoot anything that pops out at me, m'kay?"
May 25 20:53:00 <Tehpillowstar> Chloe looks into 1C
May 25 20:53:06 <tretter>       What kind of code pad is it?
May 25 20:53:07 <Alivi> Eriko's eyes widen.
May 25 20:53:16 <Alivi> "…u-um…have you seen this?"
May 25 20:53:21 *       Soots (~androirc@89BF636C.2389838E.A6C41B5.IP) has joined
May 25 20:53:22 <Snowshoe>      1C is also much larger than 1A. The roof is covered by steel tracks, and small steel figures hang from the tracks.
May 25 20:53:29 <Snowshoe>      You can't see anything more without going inside.
May 25 20:53:32 <Alivi> Eriko taps the glass of one.
May 25 20:53:39 <Gara>  Loren goes inside.
May 25 20:53:47 <lurkd> "See what, Eriko?" Elif follows her voice.
May 25 20:53:51 <Tehpillowstar> Chloe goes right behind Loren.
May 25 20:53:56 <Alivi> "…There are people..."
May 25 20:54:00 <tretter>       Ross starts typing in numbers. 1111?
May 25 20:54:12 <Snowshoe>      The human inside the vat you just flicked blinks, then stares at you. Perception, anyone inside 1B.
May 25 20:54:17 <Snowshoe>      Ross, nothing happens.
May 25 20:54:18 <tretter>       "You guys see anything interesting?"
May 25 20:54:23 <Soulless>      6df+8 perception
May 25 20:54:23 <Glacon>        Soulless: perception: 8 (6df+8=0, +, +, -, -, 0)
May 25 20:54:26 <lurkd> Elif peeks in the room and turns away.  "Nope. nope. nope...
May 25 20:54:46 <Tehpillowstar> Chloe shines her flashlight around the interior of 1C as she looks around.
May 25 20:54:46 <tretter>       "Hey, Elly. I need you for a second."
May 25 20:54:46 <Soulless>      <<There are people in 1B.>>
May 25 20:54:56 <tretter>       <<What?>>
May 25 20:54:57 <Tehpillowstar> <<What's their status?>>
May 25 20:55:02 <Soulless>      <<In vats.>>
May 25 20:55:10 <Tehpillowstar> <<...Are they conscious?>>
May 25 20:55:17 <Snowshoe>      The inside of 1C is in complete disarray. Boxes are thrown around the room, and steel figures litter the floor.
May 25 20:55:22 <tretter>       "Scratch that, Elif."
May 25 20:55:25 <lurkd> Elif tries to forget what she just saw and focuses on Ross.  "...uh...yeah...coming."
May 25 20:55:28 <Tehpillowstar> Chloe picks up a figurine.
May 25 20:55:29 <Alivi> 6df+8
May 25 20:55:30 <Glacon>        Alivi: 10 (6df+8=+, 0, +, 0, +, -)
May 25 20:55:31 <Tehpillowstar> *figure
May 25 20:55:43 <Alivi> <<One is…I think...>
May 25 20:56:05 <lurkd> Elif huddles near Ross.
May 25 20:56:06 <Snowshoe>      Stoat, you see a set of wires sticking out of a wall, sparking in the air. Eriko, you see something similar, but coming from the floor of a nearby vat.
May 25 20:56:27 <Alivi> Eriko backs away a bit.
May 25 20:56:32 <tretter>       "Elif, I need you to look at that keypad over there. If you can identify the brand, try to use the beginning product code or whatever it is called to unlock the door."
May 25 20:56:38 <Snowshoe>      Those wires are clearly not supposed to be sticking out the way they are.
May 25 20:56:59 <lurkd> "I see."
May 25 20:57:07 <tretter>       "People don't typically deprogram that out of the machine."
May 25 20:57:11 <Alivi> Eriko watches the person, she waves.
May 25 20:57:29 <Snowshoe>      The person stares back. You notice their eyes don't have pupils, they're just white orbs.
May 25 20:57:36 <tretter>       "Can you hold your own, Elif? I want to go see what's in 1B."
May 25 20:57:49 <lurkd> "I...I can."
May 25 20:57:54 <Soulless>      "..."
May 25 20:57:55 <Tehpillowstar> Chloe examines a steel figure.
May 25 20:57:58 <Alivi> Eriko looks at Stoat.
May 25 20:58:05 <Soulless>      Stoat goes to check out the set of wires.
May 25 20:58:06 <Alivi> She approches the vat again.
May 25 20:58:16 <tretter>       "Great." Ross goes to 1B.
May 25 20:58:27 <lurkd> 6df+4 they're all red wires
May 25 20:58:27 <Soulless>      <<Any of us can do electrical wiring. Anyone.>>
May 25 20:58:27 <Glacon>        lurkd: they're all red wires: 7 (6df+4=+, 0, 0, 0, +, +)
May 25 20:58:29 <tretter>       "So, what's in here agai.... Oh."
May 25 20:58:30 <Snowshoe>      Someone with electronics or science could probably repair those wires.
May 25 20:58:53 <Soulless>      Stoat defers to her poolboy friends, since this isn't her field.
May 25 20:58:57 <Snowshoe>      Elif, the keypad beeps twice at you. Nothing happens.
May 25 20:59:11 <lurkd> <<I can.  This keypad is toast anyway.>>
May 25 20:59:14 <Alivi> Eriko sighs.
May 25 20:59:16 <Snowshoe>      You'd have to break a vat if you wanted to get at the second pair of wires.
May 25 20:59:44 <Soulless>      <<1B. Little ways on the wall.>>
May 25 20:59:51 <tretter>       <<Alright, thanks for trying, Ellly.>>
May 25 21:00:02 <lurkd> Elif regroups.
May 25 21:00:12 <Snowshoe>      Chloe, there's nothing much you can tell about those steel things. They looks kind of like little men, but there's nothing to tell, really.
May 25 21:00:32 *       foxi|doubletasks (Mibbit@synIRC-1ACC1E7B.hsd1.ga.comcast.net) has joined
May 25 21:00:39 <Alivi> Eriko taps the glass again.
May 25 21:00:40 <tretter>       Ross is in 1B. He stands next to Erico.
May 25 21:00:54 <lurkd> Elif mutters to herself in her native tongue.
May 25 21:00:58 <Soulless>      Stoat waves Elif over.
May 25 21:01:09 <Soulless>      She motions to the wires on the wall.
May 25 21:01:12 <Snowshoe>      The thing inside the vat continues staring at Eriko. Nothing is changing between taps.
May 25 21:01:15 <Tehpillowstar> Chloe looks around for anything interesting in 1C. Perception?
May 25 21:01:20 <lurkd> Elif hustles toward Stoat and examines the wires.
May 25 21:01:21 <Snowshoe>      Elif, engineering or electrical to fix those wires.
May 25 21:01:25 <Snowshoe>      Go ahead, chloe

May 25 21:01:48 <Alivi> Eriko looks at the vats
May 25 21:02:05 <Alivi> She seems to be looking at the making of them
May 25 21:02:19 <Snowshoe>      Eriko, perception or science.
May 25 21:02:28 <Soulless>      "Can you fix it."
May 25 21:02:32 <Snowshoe>      Elif, you manage to repair the wire break.
May 25 21:02:38 <lurkd> "Got it."
May 25 21:02:47 <Snowshoe>      Chloe, as Elif fixes the wires you hear something rumble in the roof.
May 25 21:03:04 <Snowshoe>      Several of the steel figures shudder, half-lift themselves off the ground, and then collapse.
May 25 21:03:05 <Tehpillowstar> 6df+5 CAN'T SEE SHIT CAPTAIN
May 25 21:03:05 <Glacon>        Tehpillowstar: CAN'T SEE SHIT CAPTAIN: 6 (6df+5=+, +, -, 0, -, +)
May 25 21:03:16 <Tehpillowstar> Chloe flinches and stumbles back.
May 25 21:03:22 <Tehpillowstar> "Hopy shit."
May 25 21:03:48 <Snowshoe>      Chloe, you can see what looks like a control panel in the back corner of the room. A small red indicator light is flashing, "LO POWER"
May 25 21:03:51 <Gara>  Loren waits in the hallway.
May 25 21:03:54 <Soulless>      "...Any other wires around. Maybe we fix that."

May 25 21:04:09 <tretter>       How dark is it in 1B?
May 25 21:04:15 <Snowshoe>      There's another wire sparking inside of a vat, but you can't access it from outside. Eriko saw it.
May 25 21:04:19 <Tehpillowstar> <<Hey guys, there's these steel figures in 1C that just moved.>>
May 25 21:04:31 <Snowshoe>      If you haven't got a light, it's pretty damn dark in 1A. With a light, not too bad.
May 25 21:04:33 <Tehpillowstar> <<There's also this control panel...Think it says 'low power'"
May 25 21:04:34 <tretter>       <<Get out of there.>>

May 25 21:04:57 <Alivi> Eriko's eyes widen
May 25 21:04:59 <Tehpillowstar> <<1C>>
May 25 21:05:06 <Alivi> Can she open it?
May 25 21:05:14 <Snowshoe>      You'll have to smash the glass.
May 25 21:05:23 <Tehpillowstar> Chloe sweeps the room with her flashlight one last time and then stumbles back into the hallway.
May 25 21:05:24 <tretter>       Ross takes out his pistol.
May 25 21:05:32 <lurkd> Elif hustles to 1C to diagnose the panel.
May 25 21:05:40 <Alivi> "Stoat?"
May 25 21:05:47 <Soulless>      Stoat looks over.
May 25 21:05:49 <Soulless>      "What."
May 25 21:05:59 <Alivi> "There is wire inside the vat, sparking…should we break the glass?"
May 25 21:06:11 <lurkd> <<Should I really be making repairs like this, guys?>>
May 25 21:06:12 <Snowshoe>      The figure inside the vat with the broken wire twitches with each electrical spark. It watches you between spasms.
May 25 21:06:17 <tretter>       "Want me to shoot it?"
May 25 21:06:57 <Tehpillowstar> Chloe walks to 1B and checks it out.
May 25 21:07:13 <Snowshoe>      Who's in which room right now?
May 25 21:07:26 <Gara>  Loren is in the hall.
May 25 21:07:29 <Tehpillowstar> Chloe's in 1B
May 25 21:07:36 <tretter>       Ross is in 1B next to Erico.
May 25 21:07:41 <lurkd> Elif is in 1C looking at that low power panel.
May 25 21:07:49 <Alivi> "We can't harm whoever is in there…."
May 25 21:08:04 <Alivi> "Angle it away from the body."
May 25 21:08:15 <Tehpillowstar> Chloe approaches Eriko and Taggart. She sees the twitching being and her eyes go wide.
May 25 21:08:22 <Tehpillowstar> "[What the...]"

May 25 21:09:34 <lurkd> Elif wanders back to 1B, "Guys don't you think we should stick... what are you doing?"
May 25 21:09:52 <Snowshoe>      None of the vats can be opened unless you smash the glass fronts.
May 25 21:10:03 <Soulless>      "...Let's do it. Then."
May 25 21:10:08 <tretter>       "Chloe, you said the figures moved?"
May 25 21:10:17 <Tehpillowstar> "Yes, when I heard the rumbling..."
May 25 21:10:26 <Tehpillowstar> "In the roof."
May 25 21:10:41 <Soulless>      6dShe looks to Ross. "Shoot."
May 25 21:10:47 <Soulless>      *-6d
May 25 21:10:52 <tretter>       "Perhaps these things control the figurines to keep thier bodies safe."
May 25 21:11:16 <Tehpillowstar> "Or maybe...they are trapped."
May 25 21:11:21 <tretter>       6df+5 Shoot at the feet of the human thing.
May 25 21:11:22 <Glacon>        tretter: Shoot at the feet of the human thing.: 6 (6df+5=+, 0, 0, -, +, 0)
May 25 21:11:29 <Tehpillowstar> "NO ROSS!"
May 25 21:11:35 <lurkd> Elif covers her ears.
May 25 21:11:54 <Tehpillowstar> Chloe hesitates, not wanting to get hit herself.
May 25 21:12:10 <Snowshoe>      The glass spiderwebs as the bullet hits it and goes through. It holds for a moment, and then the glass front shatters. Whatever liquid is inside sprays out.
May 25 21:12:15 <Snowshoe>      Ross, pdef.
May 25 21:12:31 <lurkd> "Oh god!"
May 25 21:12:35 <Tehpillowstar> Chloe jumps out of the way from the liquid.
May 25 21:12:47 <Tehpillowstar> "[Shit! Fuck! Idiot!]"
May 25 21:12:47 <tretter>       6df+4 shit
May 25 21:12:48 <Glacon>        tretter: shit: 1 (6df+4=-, -, 0, 0, 0, -)
May 25 21:13:23 <lurkd> Elif grabs her large 24" pipe wrench and gets ready to swing.
May 25 21:13:51 <Soulless>      Can Stoat attempt to grab Ross and pull him away?
May 25 21:14:08 <Gara>  Loren stays in the hallway, not being an idiot.
May 25 21:14:10 <Snowshoe>      Ross is sprayed with whatever was inside the vat, and feel something solid slam against his chest. As the liquid stops flowing, the rest of you see one of the hoses that was connected from the figure to the roof of the vat is now connected from the figure to ross.
May 25 21:14:11 *       Alivi has quit (Quit: Bye All!)
May 25 21:14:31 <tretter>       "Well hot-diggity damn."
May 25 21:14:35 <Snowshoe>      It is staring, wide eyed, right at Ross.
May 25 21:14:40 *       Alivi (~Alivi@synIRC-6D9A76C6.int.bellsouth.net) has joined

[9:15pm] Alivi: "Ross!"
[9:15pm] Snowshoe: You feel the tube connecting you to the thing pull with tremendous force, but you hold your ground. The thing keeps staring straight into your eyes.
[9:16pm] Tehpillowstar: Chloe grabs at the tube and tries to disconnect Ross from it.
[9:16pm] tretter: Ross levels his gun. "Stand down or I will fire."
[9:16pm] Alivi: Can Eriko try to pull Ross Away?
[9:16pm] Alivi: "Chloe! Don't touch it!"
[9:16pm] lurkd: Elif stands poised with her wrench ready to strike.
[9:16pm] tretter: He leveled his gun at the humanoid.
[9:16pm] Snowshoe: It continues staring at him. Chloe, pdef or agility.
[9:16pm] Tehpillowstar: She readies her machete but freezes before she touches the tube.
[9:17pm] Tehpillowstar: She glances at Eriko and then to the humanoid figure.
[9:17pm] Alivi: "Don't!"
[9:17pm] lurkd: "What the fuck is it?"
[9:17pm] Alivi: Eriko looks at it.
[9:17pm] Snowshoe: Chloe, pdef or agility please.
[9:17pm] Soulless: "Eriko what are you doing."
[9:17pm] tretter: "I SAID STAND DOWN!"
[9:17pm] Alivi: "I…I don't know..."
[9:18pm] Tehpillowstar: 6df+6 agility
[9:18pm] Glacon: Tehpillowstar: agility: 8 (6df+6=-, +, +, +, -, +)
[9:18pm] Snowshoe: Eriko, it's a human shape. It seems to be partially dissolved below the hips, and it has pupilless white eyes.
[9:18pm] Snowshoe: Chloe, you duck as another tube disconnects from the roof of the vat and shoots towards you.
[9:18pm] Tehpillowstar: "[Fuck!]"
[9:18pm] Snowshoe: It embeds itself in the glass front of a vat behind you.
[9:18pm] lurkd: Can I pull Eriko back?
[9:19pm] Snowshoe: Go ahead.
[9:19pm] tretter: "You guys get out of here, get back to the hallway."
[9:19pm] Alivi: Can Eriko pull ross away from the tube?
[9:19pm] Tehpillowstar: Chloe's breath comes out hard, she has no idea what's going on and is terrified.
[9:19pm] Alivi: "Chloe go into the hallway."
[9:19pm] Gara: Loren is still in the hall. She doesn't want to make a mess of things.
[9:19pm] Snowshoe: The tube is embedded in his skin, he's not getting off of it.
[9:19pm] lurkd: Elif pulls on Eriko's arm and pulls her close.  "Are you crazy?"
[9:19pm] Soulless: 6df+8 Stoat tries to slash at the tube attatched to Ross to let him get off.
[9:19pm] Glacon: Soulless: Stoat tries to slash at the tube attatched to Ross to let him get off.: 8 (6df+8=+, -, 0, 0, +, -)
[9:19pm] Snowshoe: Stoat cuts the tube neatly in half. Pdef or agility, stoat.
[9:19pm] Snowshoe: Ross is freed.
[9:20pm] Alivi: Eriko resists the pulling.
[9:20pm] Alivi: "Stop it..."
[9:20pm] Tehpillowstar: "[Fuck fuck fuck]."
[9:20pm] Tehpillowstar: Chloe stumbles back.
[9:20pm] Snowshoe: A viscous black fluid spills out the end of the recently cut tube.
[9:20pm] Tehpillowstar: "Ross! Are you okay?"
[9:20pm] Soulless: 6df+8 agility
[9:20pm] Glacon: Soulless: agility: 10 (6df+8=0, 0, 0, +, 0, +)
[9:20pm] Alivi: Eriko steps back from the fluid can she try to get a sample to analyze?
[9:20pm] tretter: "GUYS, GET THE FUCK OUT OF THIS ROOM! GET OUT!"
[9:20pm] Alivi: "Ross will you stop paniking?!"
[9:21pm] Snowshoe: Stoat neatly dives out of the way of another tube, which embeds itself in the floor at her feet.
[9:21pm] tretter: Ross, now free from the tube, dodges out of the room.
[9:21pm] lurkd: Elif looks at Ross and Eriko, confused about what to do.
[9:21pm] Snowshoe: Eriko, you can grab a sample, but you'll risk getting tubed.
[9:21pm] Soulless: "Ross get out. You're free."
[9:21pm] Tehpillowstar: "Eriko, let me take a sample, just get out."
[9:21pm] tretter: "You think these things are safe? Do you?"
[9:21pm] Alivi: Eriko tries to get a sample.
[9:21pm] Snowshoe: It occurs to you that you broke the vat open for a reason.
[9:21pm] Snowshoe: Eriko, you collect your sample. Pdef or agility.
[9:21pm] Soulless: "Elif. Get the wires. Fix them. I'll back you up."
[9:22pm] AgentFlowers joined the chat room.
[9:22pm] AgentFlowers was promoted to operator by ChanServ.
[9:22pm] Soulless: Stoat's in job mode.
[9:22pm] lurkd: ~Fuck!~ "Alright."
[9:22pm] Alivi: 6df+6
[9:22pm] Glacon: Alivi: 2 (6df+6=0, -, -, -, 0, -)
[9:22pm] Soulless: "Fuck the sample."

[9:22pm] Glacon: lurkd: cover me: 12 (6df+8=+, +, 0, +, 0, +)
[9:22pm] Snowshoe: Eriko is hit squarely in the stomach by a tube.
[9:23pm] Snowshoe: Strength or agility, eriko.
[9:23pm] Alivi: 6df+6 agility
[9:23pm] Glacon: Alivi: agility: 8 (6df+6=0, 0, -, +, +, +)
[9:23pm] tretter: Ross steps back into the room. He levels his gun. Roll Ranged to shoot the humanoid?
[9:23pm] Snowshoe: 6df+6
[9:23pm] Glacon: Snowshoe: 4 (6df+6=0, -, -, 0, -, +)
[9:23pm] Tehpillowstar: Chloe swears again, retreats from the room.
[9:23pm] Snowshoe: Ross, go ahead
[9:23pm] Snowshoe: Eriko, you feel the thing struggle to throw you, but you resist.
[9:23pm] tretter: 6df+5 Die, you scum.
[9:23pm] Glacon: tretter: Die, you scum.: 5 (6df+5=-, 0, +, -, 0, +)
[9:23pm] Alivi: "[Dammit!]"
[9:24pm] Alivi: Eriko tries to dislodge the thing from her stomach.
[9:24pm] Soulless: 6df+8 She tries to slice at the tube attached to Eriko. God fucking dammit.
[9:24pm] Glacon: Soulless: She tries to slice at the tube attached to Eriko. God fucking dammit.: 6 (6df+8=-, -, 0, +, 0, -)

[9:24pm] Glacon: Snowshoe: 4 (6df+4=+, 0, +, 0, -, -)
[9:24pm] lurkd: "Stoat, you still there?"  As she attempts to repair the wires.
[9:24pm] Snowshoe: Stoat slices the tube connected to Eriko.
[9:24pm] Soulless: She doesn't have nearly enough everywhere-at-once to watch Eriko AND herself AND Elif. "Eriko get out. Now!"
[9:25pm] Snowshoe: Elif, you succeed at fixing the wires.
[9:25pm] Alivi: "Not leaving you here…"
[9:25pm] lurkd: "Got it!"
[9:25pm] Snowshoe: Something in 1C rumbles loudly.
[9:25pm] Alivi: Eriko stows the sample and she looks over at 1C
[9:25pm] Soulless: "Hurry. Get out."
[9:25pm] lurkd: "Sssssshit."
[9:25pm] Tehpillowstar: "Oh God Oh God..."
[9:25pm] Alivi: "…If you don't come after I will come back..."
[9:25pm] Alivi: Eriko goes over to 1C
[9:26pm] Gara: Loren walks into 1C.
[9:26pm] Soulless: Stoat ushers Elif out, as well as herself.
[9:26pm] tretter: Does Ross still have a part of the tube connected to his chest?
[9:26pm] lurkd: Elif hustles out of the room.
[9:26pm] Alivi: Does Eriko ?
[9:26pm] Snowshoe: Ralph's slow-mo bullet impacts the thing, injuring it.
[9:26pm] Tehpillowstar: Chloe goes over to 1C
[9:26pm] Snowshoe: Everybody makes it out of 1B
[9:26pm] Tehpillowstar: "Ross, you okay?"
[9:26pm] tretter: "I'm fine. Let's stay here for a bit."
[9:27pm] tretter: "Erico, do you need any medical attention?"
[9:27pm] Snowshoe: Ross and Eriko still have tubes on them, but there's no feeling around them.
[9:27pm] lurkd: "Fuck.  No more wires today... done with the wires..."
[9:27pm] Alivi: like the area is numb?
[9:27pm] Snowshoe: Yes.
[9:27pm] Alivi: Eriko tries to ignore it then.
[9:27pm] Alivi: "I'm fine…I think..."
[9:27pm] tretter: "Right now, I wish I was a qualified surgeon."
[9:28pm] Alivi: Eriko looks in 1C
[9:28pm] tretter: Ross  slumps down on the floor.
[9:28pm] Soulless: Stoat huffs, put off. "Is it injurious. No. Let's keep going. Where're the others." She means Chloe and Eriko and Loren.
[9:28pm] Snowshoe: Inside of 1C, the mechanical figures that were laying on the floor have rumbled to life. They're moving about the room, moving and stacking boxes.
[9:28pm] Snowshoe: They ignore you.
[9:28pm] Tehpillowstar: Actually, feeling quite ADHD, Chloe instead walks over to the last unopened room: 1D. She opens the door.
[9:28pm] Gara: "No reason to fuck with them."
[9:28pm] tretter: "No. Don't do that, Chloe."
[9:28pm] Snowshoe: Chloe sees a room filled with human bodies suspended from the ceiling by meathhooks.
[9:29pm] Alivi: Eriko nods. She goes to 1D
[9:29pm] Snowshoe: A blast of cold air exits the room as she opens the door.
[9:29pm] Alivi: "Chloe what are you doing?!"
[9:29pm] Tehpillowstar: Chloe immediately shuts the door. Nope. Not going to go into that kind of thing.
[9:29pm] Soulless: <<Let's /not/ split up. >>
[9:29pm] Tehpillowstar left the chat room. (Quit: brb going to the moon)
[9:29pm] lurkd: "Yes, we stay together."
[9:29pm] Alivi: Eriko sighs.
[9:30pm] Alivi: <<I agree Stoat.>>
[9:30pm] Snowshoe: Where's everybody at?
[9:30pm] Soulless: Stoat's out in the hall with Ross and Elif and the others.
[9:30pm] tretter: "Erico, let me try something. Can I try to dislodge the tube?"
[9:30pm] Alivi: Eriko is in the hall.
[9:30pm] Alivi: She looks at Ross.
[9:30pm] Soots: "I agree." Chloe mutters more to herself.
[9:30pm] Alivi: "Um…if you want..."
[9:31pm] Alivi: "It doesn't hurt..."
[9:31pm] Soots: She turns around. What's the status in 1C? she asks.
[9:31pm] tretter: Ross grabs his pack and takes out a few bandages as well as a pair of surgical scissors.
[9:31pm] tretter: "Now hold still."
[9:31pm] Snowshoe: The mechanical figures are still doing their thing, tidying up the room. As far as you can tell, they're not doing anything untoward.
[9:31pm] Snowshoe: Ross, medical.
[9:31pm] Alivi: Eriko sits down in the hallway.
[9:32pm] Gara: "Well, I'lll leace you alone." Loren goes into the hal.
[9:32pm] tretter: 6df+7 Come on, tube.
[9:32pm] Glacon: tretter: Come on, tube.: 11 (6df+7=-, +, +, +, +, +)
[9:32pm] lurkd: "There's a panel in 1C, but it has no power so I can't work on it."
[9:32pm] Soulless: "Did fixing the panel power it at all."
[9:32pm] Soulless: *fixing the wires
[9:32pm] Snowshoe: ross expertly removes the tube from Eriko and bandages it. The area still feels numb, but at least the tube is out.
[9:33pm] lurkd: "I could check.  Someone want to escort me?"
[9:33pm] tretter: "Phew, I'm glad that worked."
[9:33pm] Alivi: Eriko winces as she watches Ross work.
[9:33pm] Gara: "I'm with you."
[9:33pm] Alivi: "You need to do it to you too..."
[9:33pm] Gara: Loren walks to Elif.
[9:33pm] lurkd: Elif heads over to 1C to look at that panel again.
[9:34pm] Gara: Loren goes with her.
[9:34pm] Soots: Chloe stays outside in the hallway.
[9:34pm] Gara: She has her knife out.
[9:34pm] Soulless: Stoat follows Loren to go with Elif as well. "Chloe watch the others."
[9:34pm] lurkd: Elif is standing in front of the panel looking at it.
[9:35pm] tretter: 6df+7 On hisself.
[9:35pm] Glacon: tretter: On hisself.: 5 (6df+7=-, +, -, 0, 0, -)
[9:35pm] ShockwaveLover joined the chat room.
[9:35pm] ShockwaveLover was promoted to administrator by ChanServ.
[9:35pm] ShockwaveLover was promoted to operator by ChanServ.
[9:35pm] Snowshoe: The light on the control panel in 1C is off. There's a pretty blatantly obvious handle meant to turn something on sticking out of the panel.
[9:35pm] Soots: Chloe keeps watch as told by Stoat.
[9:36pm] Soulless: "Any better, Elif."
[9:36pm] lurkd: Elif turns the handle on the panel.
[9:36pm] Snowshoe: Ross manages to get the tube out of himself, but not as cleanly as he did Eriko. He's going to want to get that looked at later.
[9:37pm] Alivi: "Are you ok?"
[9:37pm] tretter: "Lord, this is gonna hurt in the morning. This is also why you never operate on yourself."
[9:37pm] Alivi: "I could've helped..."
[9:37pm] Snowshoe: As Elif turns the handle, you hear the unmarked door in the hallway beep again. Inside the room, a small mechanical figure jerks to life and walks out into the hall.
[9:38pm] tretter: "Nah, I'm fine."
[9:38pm] lurkd: "Whoa! Guys, a thing!"
[9:38pm] Snowshoe: As far as you can see, nothing inside the room changes.
[9:38pm] Snowshoe: The small mechanical figure walks to the unmarked door and stands in front of it.
[9:38pm] Soots: Chloe readies her weapon, ready to attack at anymome
[9:38pm] Gara: "Okay."
[9:39pm] lurkd: Elif slowly walks toward the unmarked door signaling others to cover her.
[9:39pm] Alivi: "Ok..."
[9:39pm] Soulless: Stoat covers Elif.
[9:39pm] Alivi: Eriko gets up and she looks at the thing she looks back at 1b
[9:39pm] Snowshoe: Elif, the keypad beside the door is lit up. It flashes with a message, "Please enter passcode"
[9:40pm] tretter: "What happened? I was operating on myself."
[9:40pm] Snowshoe: Eriko, nothing has changed inside 1b. You can still see where the tubes from the thing you fought are embedded in other vats and the floor.
[9:40pm] lurkd: Elif examines the keypad while keeping her distance from the mechanical figure.
[9:40pm] lurkd: "I...I might be able to hack it."
[9:40pm] Alivi: Where is the injured thing?
[9:40pm] Snowshoe: You can't see it from the doorway.
[9:40pm] Soots left the chat room. (Be right back; going to the moon. )
[9:41pm] Snowshoe: The door to 1D still remains closed.
[9:41pm] Soots joined the chat room.
[9:41pm] tretter: "Don't go in there Erico, it's not safe."
[9:41pm] Alivi: "….I can't see the thing…what if it escaped?"
[9:41pm] Arag joined the chat room.
[9:41pm] Soulless: "Don't worry about it for now."
[9:41pm] lurkd: "Ok."  Elif backs away.
[9:41pm] Soulless: She says this to Eriko.
[9:42pm] tretter: "It didn't."
[9:42pm] tretter: "I got a pretty good shot at it."
[9:42pm] lurkd: redact that last one
[9:42pm] Soots: Is the figure doing anything with the keycode door?
[9:42pm] Snowshoe: No, it's just standing there. It seems to be waiting for the door to open.
[9:42pm] Soulless: She covers Elif. "Can you try." She doesn't want to deal with 1D.
[9:42pm] Alivi: Eriko looks at Stoat.
[9:42pm] Alivi: She nods
[9:42pm] Soulless: She nods back to Eriko.
[9:43pm] lurkd: "....I'm going in."  Elif squeezes by the figure and works on the keypad.
[9:43pm] Gara left the chat room. (Ping timeout)
[9:43pm] lurkd: 6df+4 hack the planet
[9:43pm] Glacon: lurkd: hack the planet: 1 (6df+4=-, 0, -, -, 0, 0)
[9:43pm] Soots: "Wait"
[9:43pm] Snowshoe: Elif fails.
[9:43pm] lurkd: "Damn."
[9:43pm] Soulless: "...1D. Then."
[9:43pm] Arag is now known as Gara.
[9:44pm] Soots: "There were bodies in 1D"
[9:44pm] Soulless: "....1D. Then."
[9:44pm] tretter: "Bodies are ok."
[9:44pm] Alivi: Eriko looks at Stoat and nods, "Let's go…."
[9:44pm] Soots: "Human bodies, hanging from meat hooks."
[9:44pm] tretter: "Bodies don't fight b... Nevermind."
[9:44pm] Alivi: "Chloe, just hang back..."
[9:44pm] Soulless: "Do we have a choice."
[9:44pm] lurkd: Elif gently pokes the mechanical figure with her wrench.
[9:45pm] Soots: Chloe bites her lower lip, then says "I can open the door. I'm not afraid Eriko."
[9:45pm] Snowshoe: The figure doesn't react, though you note that it's heavier than it looks.
[9:45pm] Alivi: "Mmmhm,"
[9:45pm] Alivi: Eriko makes her way to 1D and carefully opens the door.
[9:46pm] lurkd: "This thing weighs a ton."
[9:46pm] tretter: Ros follows, gun drawn.
[9:46pm] Soots: Chloe puts her flashlight away and takes out her gun.
[9:46pm] Gara: Loren stays in the hall.
[9:46pm] Soulless: Stoat has her knives out.
[9:46pm] Soots: actually no redact
[9:46pm] Snowshoe: A blast of freezing air hits Eriko. She sees a group of human bodies suspended by their necks from meat hooks hanging in the center of the room. A rough guess puts about twenty of them in there.
[9:46pm] Snowshoe: The black ash inside 1D seems to be thicker than in other rooms.
[9:47pm] tretter: Ross' Maglight is still on. It's clipped on his belt, so it always point forward.
[9:47pm] lurkd: Elif stands in the doorway of 1
[9:47pm] Alivi: Eriko turns her flashlight on, shivering, she carefully steps in.
[9:47pm] lurkd: *1D
[9:47pm] Soulless: Stoat's eyes narrow. She tries not to pay attention to the bodies as she flashes her flashlught around for any more electrical wire shit.
[9:47pm] Snowshoe: Eriko, as you enter the room the nearest body swivels slowly to face you.
[9:47pm] Snowshoe: It doesn't move, other than that. It seems to be watching.
[9:48pm] Alivi: Eriko watches it.
[9:48pm] Soots: Chloe shines her flashlight around and then walks in. She will not get fear get the better of her.
[9:48pm] Snowshoe: Perception, anybody.
[9:48pm] Alivi: She shines her flashlight at it.
[9:48pm] Alivi: 6df+8
[9:48pm] tretter: Ross panics only slightly and runs at the body. He seems to be trying to tackle it.
[9:48pm] Glacon: Alivi: 6 (6df+8=-, -, +, 0, -, 0)
[9:48pm] Soots: 6df+5 oh noes
[9:48pm] Glacon: Soots: oh noes: 4 (6df+5=-, -, 0, 0, +, 0)
[9:48pm] tretter: 6df+4 Running
[9:48pm] Glacon: tretter: Running: 6 (6df+4=+, +, +, 0, 0, -)
[9:48pm] Snowshoe: Ross, nothing reacts to your movement.
[9:48pm] Soulless: 6df+8 percep
[9:48pm] Glacon: Soulless: percep: 9 (6df+8=0, +, +, +, -, -)
[9:48pm] tretter: *Perception
[9:49pm] Snowshoe: You all see a small lockbox in the opposite corner of the room. Stoat, you notice that the bodies seem to be working their mouths.
[9:49pm] tretter: He attempts to tackle it. Roll agility to tackle?
[9:49pm] Snowshoe: The image of a fish gasping after being caught comes to mind.
[9:49pm] tretter: *it=the body
[9:49pm] Snowshoe: It's a body, ross. Just tackle it.
[9:49pm] Alivi: Eriko seems unsettled.
[9:49pm] tretter: Ross does so.
[9:50pm] lurkd: Elif slowly walks in and regroups with them.
[9:50pm] Alivi: Eriko goes towards the lockbox
[9:50pm] Snowshoe: The body swings as you tackle it, though it's stiff from being frozen. Several others swing in the air at the disturbance.
[9:50pm] Snowshoe: Nothing happens to Ross.
[9:50pm] Soulless: "..." Stoat breaths a bit heavy. "No one. Touch. The bodies."
[9:50pm] Soulless: "Just get the lockbox."
[9:51pm] Soulless: "And get out."
[9:51pm] tretter: Ross gets up from the floor and dusts himself off.
[9:51pm] Snowshoe: Ross, you notice that the body you've tackled seems to be gasping.
[9:51pm] Snowshoe: Very, very quietly.
[9:51pm] Alivi: Eriko tries to pick up the box
[9:51pm] Snowshoe: Eriko, the lockbox is open.
[9:51pm] Alivi: Or she tries to look at what is inside
[9:51pm] tretter: "Sorry, Erico. I thought that that thing was trying to... holy shit."
[9:51pm] Soots: Chloe reconsiders and sticks around at the entrance, as guard.
[9:51pm] tretter: "I think these people are still alive."
[9:51pm] Soulless: "Ross. Yeah. Don't pay too much attention. Let's just go."
[9:51pm] Soots: "I'll keep guard."
[9:51pm] Snowshoe: Inside the box is a notepad with a short number code on it, as well as a piece of paper with very sloppy handwriting.
[9:52pm] Alivi: Eriko tries to read the paper
[9:52pm] Alivi: "I have a code and a piece of paper."
[9:52pm] lurkd: "What is it?"
[9:52pm] Soulless: "What's in it Eriko. Grab and go."
[9:52pm] Soulless: She doesn't want to be here longer than necessary.
[9:52pm] Alivi: "Hold on…"
[9:52pm] Snowshoe: Eriko: "They keep waking up theyre looking at us they tell us we shouldnt fell bad about them they feel nothng but they look they breath they watch they kno we cn help them but we dont we watch and we let them hurt and it hurts them so bad but we let it go be..."
[9:52pm] Snowshoe: The paper trails off after that, you can't read any more.
[9:52pm] tretter: Ross takes out his gun and aims it at the moving body.
[9:52pm] Alivi: Eriko frowns.
[9:53pm] Snowshoe: Ross, the body isn't moving.
[9:53pm] lurkd: "Well?"
[9:53pm] Soulless: She's antsy, waiting on Eriko taking her sweet time in a room of gasping bodies.
[9:53pm] Alivi: She picks up the notepad and flips through it. Anything?
[9:53pm] Snowshoe: It's still swinging from when you tackled it.
[9:53pm] Alivi: Eriko pockets the note.
[9:53pm] Soulless: "Eriko just grab it and leave."
[9:53pm] tretter: "What the hell?" Ross pokes it with the barrel of his gun.
[9:53pm] Alivi: "Ok! Ok!"
[9:53pm] Soulless: She /so/ doesn't want to be here.
[9:53pm] Snowshoe: A 5 digit number code on the pad.
[9:53pm] Alivi: Eriko grabs the notepad and starts making her way out.
[9:54pm] lurkd: Elif briskly walks out, covered in goosebumps
[9:54pm] Soots: "What is it Eriko?"
[9:54pm] Alivi: "I have a code 5 number...."
[9:54pm] tretter: Ross is still in there. That body will reveal its secrets to Ross.
[9:54pm] Snowshoe: Eriko, the body that watched you enter watches you exit. It stares at you, gasping as you exit.
[9:54pm] Alivi: Eriko tries to ignore it.
[9:54pm] Soulless: Stoat heads out after ushering everyone else out. "Ah. A code. The number pad maybe."
[9:54pm] Soulless: "Ross. Get out."
[9:54pm] tretter: Ross pokes it again.
[9:54pm] Snowshoe: It stares down at you, pleading in its eyes.
[9:54pm] Snowshoe: Nothing happens.
[9:55pm] lurkd: "Ross!"
[9:55pm] Soots: "Ross get out! This isn't play time!"
[9:55pm] Soulless: "Ross! GET. OUT."
[9:55pm] tretter: "I'll try to free you buddy. Hold on a minute."
[9:55pm] Soulless: She grabs Ross and starts pulling him out.
[9:55pm] tretter: "I'll be out in a minute. No, wait."
[9:55pm] Soulless: Her extra hands also start grabbing and pulling.
[9:55pm] Soulless: "No. We're going. Now."
[9:55pm] lurkd: Elif walks near Eriko.
[9:55pm] tretter: "Fine."
[9:55pm] Snowshoe: The bodies watch you leave.
[9:55pm] tretter: Ross lets himself be dragged out.
[9:56pm] tretter: "I could have helped them. They were alive.
[9:56pm] Alivi: Eriko hands it to Stoat.
[9:56pm] Alivi: "I know Ross….the note..."
[9:56pm] Alivi: Eriko sighs.
[9:56pm] Alivi: "We need to figure this out first."
[9:56pm] Soots: "Type in the code and let's go."
[9:56pm] Soulless: "It doesn't matter."
[9:56pm] tretter: "I can save them. I'm not leaving here without helping them."
[9:56pm] Snowshoe: Ross, you note that you've got black ash stuck to your skin from where you touched the body.
[9:56pm] lurkd: Elif sighs.
[9:57pm] Soulless: "Can someone punch in the code. I'll hold Ros."
[9:57pm] Soulless: *Ross
[9:57pm] Snowshoe: It doesn't feel weird, it's just smeared onto your skin.
[9:57pm] Alivi: Eriko looks at Ross.
[9:57pm] lurkd: "Give it to me."
[9:57pm] Alivi: "Listen, when we….do what we do. We endup helping more than when we try to directly interfere..."
[9:57pm] tretter: Ross tries to wipe it on his pants.
[9:57pm] lurkd: "I'll put it in."
[9:57pm] Snowshoe: Ross succeeds in wiping it on his pants, though it also smears across his arms.
[9:58pm] tretter: "No, I can save them. I'm sure."
[9:58pm] Alivi: "Ross shut up."
[9:58pm] Soots: "We might end up helping them if we get to the bottom of this."
[9:58pm] Alivi: "You arent here to be a hero."
[9:58pm] tretter: He tries to wipe it off his arm.
[9:58pm] Snowshoe: The small mechanical thing waits in front of the door.
[9:58pm] lurkd: "Guys, give me the code."
[9:58pm] Soulless: "Ross. Keep a hold on the mission."
[9:58pm] Soulless: Stoat hands the code over, but holds Ross otherwise.
[9:58pm] Alivi: Eriko hands the notepad to Elif
[9:58pm] Alivi: or redact
[9:58pm] Snowshoe: Ross, it smears like oil. You don't feel anything odd, it's just on your skin.
[9:59pm] tretter: Ross slumps on the wall. ~I can help them. Why won't they believe me?~
[9:59pm] lurkd: Elif walks over to the door being sure /not/ to stand in front of the thing while putting in the code.
[9:59pm] Alivi: "Stoat…I have something…you might want to see..."
[9:59pm] tretter: Ross gives up and just leaves the dust alone
[9:59pm] lurkd: "Ok, guys be alert."
[9:59pm] Alivi: Eriko nods she goes near Elif.
[10:00pm] lurkd: Elif punches in the numbers.
[10:00pm] Soulless: "What is it. Eriko."
[10:00pm] Gara: Loren walks to Elif.
[10:00pm] Alivi: "I found a note in there…about the bodies..."
[10:00pm] Soots: Chloe glances at Ross and her expression softens. "Have faith Ross. If we do this, we might end up saving them." she mutters.
[10:00pm] Soulless: "Ah."
[10:00pm] Snowshoe: After Elif enters the code, the door beeps and slides open with a swish. You feel another blast of cold air, about the same temperature as 1D. The tiny mechanical figure walks through the door.
[10:00pm] Alivi: "I think there was an experiment…they are alive and at one point concious enough to communicate."
[10:00pm] Soulless: She nods.
[10:00pm] Alivi: Eriko looks through the doorway.
[10:00pm] Soulless: "Let's... LEt's keep going. Then. The door's open."
[10:01pm] lurkd: Elif peeks into the new room.
[10:01pm] Soulless: She drags Ross and herself towards the new room, shining her flashlight in.
[10:01pm] lurkd: 6df+5 perception
[10:01pm] Glacon: lurkd: perception: 6 (6df+5=+, 0, +, +, -, -)
[10:01pm] Alivi: Eriko walks into the room
[10:01pm] tretter: Ross doesn't bother to fight back.
[10:01pm] Magnobile left the chat room. (Broken pipe)
[10:01pm] Snowshoe: Looking through the door, you see a massive cylindrical room. You are at the top, near the roof. A catwalk rings around the room at your level, and several doors lie along the edge. You can't see the bottom of the room.
[10:01pm] Soots: Chloe zips up her jacket and shines her flashlight in.
[10:01pm] Snowshoe: You'd guess the room is about 500 feet across.
[10:01pm] Magnobile joined the chat room.
[10:01pm] Alivi: Eriko looks at the doors.
[10:02pm] lurkd: Is the mechanical figure walking down the catwalk?
[10:02pm] Soulless: "..." Stoat looks at the doors, and.
[10:02pm] Soulless: *and the figure
[10:02pm] Gara: Loren follows Elif.
[10:02pm] Snowshoe: The tiny mechanical figure walks out onto the catwalk and takes several steps. After walking about ten feet, it pitches onto its side and tips into the abyss.
[10:02pm] tretter: Ross pushes Stoat away. "I can walk."
[10:02pm] Snowshoe: You don't hear it hit the ground.
[10:02pm] Soulless: "If you try to save anyone again. I'll be-"
[10:02pm] Soulless: She watches the figure.
[10:02pm] Alivi: Eriko watches the figure fall.
[10:02pm] lurkd: "Great... more doors."
[10:02pm] Soots: Chloe gaps at the figure. What the hell?
[10:03pm] Soulless: "...Long way down. Let's try the closest door."
[10:03pm] Snowshoe: You watch it drop what you would guess is about two hundred feet before it disappears into the darkness below.
[10:03pm] Alivi: Eriko continues looking at the doors.
[10:03pm] Soots: She enters the new area and looks around.
[10:03pm] Magnobile left the chat room. (Connection reset by peer)
[10:03pm] tretter: "You'll be what? Angry? Sad? What? What does it matter to you? I am not willing to see anyone else in pain.?
[10:03pm] Snowshoe: Most of the doors have red emergency lights flashing above them, though one has a green light.
[10:03pm] tretter: "It's my job to not let people be in pain."
[10:03pm] lurkd: "Look there... the green light."
[10:04pm] Alivi: Eriko looks.
[10:04pm] Snowshoe: The doors are the same as the ones in the previous hall. No way to see inside unless you open them.
[10:04pm] Magnobile joined the chat room.
[10:04pm] Soulless: "I'll be here to hold you back. We focus on the mission. Your job /is/ the mission. Lose your way and you won't be alive anymore to let us, your /teammates/ avoid pain."
[10:04pm] Alivi: She tilts her head to the side.
[10:04pm] Alivi: Eriko walks towards the green light door.
[10:04pm] lurkd: Elif follows Eriko.
[10:04pm] Soulless: Stoat begins to head over with the others.
[10:05pm] Soots: Chloe walks towards the green light door.
[10:05pm] tretter: "Who the fuck cares if I won't be alive?"
[10:05pm] Snowshoe: The light above the door pulses slowly, but otherwise it's just a door.
[10:05pm] Alivi: Eriko carefully opens the door.
[10:06pm] Snowshoe: Inside is another room full of vats, though they seem different than the vats from 1B.
[10:06pm] Soulless: She doesn't argue with Ross. She doesn't have time for that shit.
[10:06pm] Alivi: Eriko approches one.
[10:06pm] lurkd: Elif silently steps in.
[10:06pm] Soots: Chloe follows.
[10:07pm] Alivi: How do they seem different?
[10:07pm] tretter: Ross walks over to the edge. He looks over it. He could just... No, he wouldn't.
[10:07pm] Snowshoe: Eriko, you note that the figures in the vat change as you look further down the rows. The people inside look similar to those in 1B, but they've got a thin coating of black ash on them.
[10:07pm] Snowshoe: Those closer to the door have a thicker coating, to the point where some are unrecognizable as human.
[10:07pm] Alivi: Eriko taps the glass.
[10:07pm] lurkd: "What were they doing to them?"
[10:07pm] Soulless: "..."
[10:07pm] tretter: He turns around and rejoins the group.
[10:08pm] Alivi: "…they said it didn't hurt…I wonder if the black stubstance has something to do with this..."
[10:08pm] Soots: "Maybe we'll find out."
[10:08pm] Soulless: She looks to Ross, who is getting a thin coating himself.
[10:08pm] Snowshoe: The thing inside the glass case stares back at Eriko.
[10:08pm] Soulless: "..." She shines her flashlight down, looking around.
[10:08pm] Alivi: "Can you hear me?"
[10:08pm] Snowshoe: You all note something thrashing in a vat further down the row.
[10:08pm] Alivi: She asks it.
[10:08pm] tretter: Is he? Ross is pretending to not notice the dust on himself.
[10:08pm] Uncandescent joined the chat room.
[10:08pm] Snowshoe: It does not react to her voice, but continues staring.
[10:08pm] Soulless: She heads down to the thrashing thing.
[10:08pm] Alivi: Eriko goes towards the thrashing
[10:09pm] lurkd: Elif walks in the direction of the thrashing.
[10:09pm] Soulless: She also doesn't meet the gaze of /anyone/ in the vats.
[10:09pm] lurkd: Elif can't help but make eye contact with every single one.
[10:09pm] tretter: "Don't break the glass. I don't want any regenerator zombies not-zombies chasing me."
[10:09pm] tretter: *-zombies
[10:10pm] Snowshoe: At the very end of the row is a man dangling from the roof by a meat hook, looking very similar to those in 1D. He seems to have slipped partially off the hook, and is jerking inside the vat.
[10:10pm] Soots: Chloe goes towards the trashing.
[10:10pm] Snowshoe: As Eriko comes into view, you see him open his mouth and scream, though the sound is very muffled through the glass.
[10:10pm] lurkd: "He needs help."
[10:10pm] Alivi: Eriko frowns, "We need to get inside of this..."
[10:10pm] Alivi: Eriko takes out her gun and aims at the glass of the vat.
[10:10pm] tretter: Ross quickly follows her. "Are there any tubes?"
[10:10pm] Alivi: Roll to shoot?
[10:10pm] tretter: "No, wait."
[10:10pm] tretter: "Don't shoot."
[10:10pm] Snowshoe: It's glass, roll if you feel the need.
[10:10pm] Snowshoe: Not much to miss.
[10:11pm] Alivi: 6df+5
[10:11pm] Glacon: Alivi: 2 (6df+5=-, +, -, 0, -, -)
[10:11pm] Soulless: "Eri-" Too late.
[10:11pm] tretter: Ross quickly runs back to the door.
[10:11pm] Snowshoe: The bullet hits the glass and misses the man. You recognize the spiderweb cracking from before.
[10:11pm] Gara: Loren retreats.
[10:11pm] Alivi: Eriko backs away.
[10:12pm] Soots: Chloe backs away, takijg out her gun.
[10:12pm] Soulless: "Let's go. Out. Everyone. Out."
[10:12pm] Alivi: "I need to talk to him!"
[10:12pm] lurkd: "Do I need to hit it."  She takes out her wrench.
[10:12pm] Snowshoe: The glass shatters. As the vat gushes out into the aisle, you hear an unearthly shrieking fill the room. "GETITOFFGETITOUTGETHEHOOKGETITOUTITSCOLDTHEHOOKGETITOUT"
[10:12pm] lurkd: Elif sticks with Eriko.
[10:12pm] Alivi: Eriko rushes over to try and help the man
[10:12pm] Soots: She aims, perception?
[10:13pm] Alivi: how can I help?
[10:13pm] Soots: wait no redact
[10:13pm] Snowshoe: The man dangles in the vat, screaming for help.
[10:13pm] Soulless: Stoat starts grabbing and dragging people out. "Eriko. We're /leaving/."
[10:13pm] Snowshoe: Someone could cut the hook.
[10:13pm] tretter: Ross dodges back to the shattered vat.
[10:13pm] Gara: Loren goes to the hallway.
[10:13pm] Alivi: "Stoat help me help him now!"
[10:13pm] lurkd: Cut it with what?
[10:13pm] Soots: Chloe rushes over and tries to cut the man down
[10:13pm] Snowshoe: A bladed implement of some sort?
[10:13pm] Soulless: 6df+8 She aims and tosses a knife, not like metal would cut metal anyways.
[10:13pm] Glacon: Soulless: She aims and tosses a knife, not like metal would cut metal anyways.: 8 (6df+8=0, 0, -, +, 0, 0)
[10:13pm] Soots: With her machete.
[10:13pm] lurkd: Elif walks up to the man and examines it.
[10:13pm] lurkd: "Try to hold still!"
[10:13pm] tretter: Ross looks at the meat hook. Perception?
[10:14pm] Snowshoe: sure
[10:14pm] lurkd: Elif grabs hold of his hand.
[10:14pm] tretter: 6df+4 Let's see the meathook
[10:14pm] Glacon: tretter: Let's see the meathook: 2 (6df+4=0, -, 0, +, -, -)
[10:14pm] Snowshoe: Elif, the man doesn't seem to notice you. He's still shrieking and jerking.
[10:14pm] Alivi: Does Stoat's knife cut it?
[10:14pm] Soulless: Does Stoat do the cutting thing?
[10:14pm] Alivi: "Ross he needs medical attention.
[10:15pm] Snowshoe: The kife cuts the cord connecting the hook to the roof.
[10:15pm] lurkd: Elif tries to hold him still.
[10:15pm] tretter: "I can't do much while he's on that thing."
[10:15pm] Soulless: "Ok drag the guy out."
[10:15pm] Alivi: "He isn't!"
[10:15pm] Alivi: Eriko tries to help drag him out.
[10:15pm] Soulless: Stoat is so put off by these people.
[10:15pm] Snowshoe: The man drops onto the floor and curls into the fetal position, sobbing.
[10:15pm] Soulless: She helps drag him out with Eriko.
[10:15pm] Snowshoe: The man doesn't resist being dragged.
[10:15pm] Soots: Chliebhelps
[10:15pm] Alivi: "Sorry Stoat…we need information."
[10:15pm] Alivi: "Sir?"
[10:16pm] tretter: Ross garbs his pack and starts to look at the man.
[10:16pm] tretter: *grabs
[10:16pm] lurkd: Elif pats him on the cheek.  "Hey, come back to us."
[10:16pm] Soots: "Anybody got painkillers?"
[10:16pm] Alivi: "We are here to help you…talk to us please..."
[10:16pm] tretter: Roll Perception to look for injuries?
[10:16pm] Soots: Chloe crouches down.
[10:16pm] tretter: "Sir, calm down, you're safe now.
[10:16pm] Snowshoe: Ross there's a giant goddamn hole in the back of his neck where the hook was.
[10:16pm] Soulless: Once he's dragged out, Stoat lets people tend to the man. She looks around, wary of any tubes.
[10:17pm] Snowshoe: The man's sobbing slows, then stops.
[10:17pm] tretter: 6df+7 This man needs medical attention.
[10:17pm] Glacon: tretter: This man needs medical attention.: 5 (6df+7=-, -, +, 0, -, 0)
[10:17pm] Soots: "Is he dead?"
[10:17pm] tretter: "No."
[10:17pm] Snowshoe: You can hear him muttering to himself, quietly.
[10:18pm] Snowshoe: Ross, you slap some bandages over the hole. You've got no idea how he's still alive.
[10:18pm] Soots: "Can you tend to the wound? I'm gonna ask some questions"
[10:18pm] lurkd: Elif backs away and looks at the other tubes.
[10:18pm] tretter: "This man is a medical impossibility. Where the cut is and how deep it looks would be enough to kill him."
[10:19pm] tretter: "If this cut is as deep as I think it is, that hook was in his spinal cord."
[10:19pm] Snowshoe: He's speaking too quickly for you to make out exactly what he's saying, but you hear the phrases 'cold', 'hooks', and 'puppets' repeated fairly often.
[10:19pm] Snowshoe: Is anyone still inside the room, or is everyone out on the catwalk?
[10:19pm] tretter: "Sir, calm down, you're safe."
[10:19pm] Soots: Chloe's in room unless the man was dragged to the catwal
[10:20pm] Soots: "We won't hurt you."
[10:20pm] tretter: He was dragged to the catwalk I believe.
[10:20pm] Snowshoe: Chloe, he doesn't respond to you.
[10:20pm] tretter: Ross takes off his EMT coat and lays it over the man.
[10:20pm] Alivi: "Sir?"
[10:20pm] Snowshoe: Everybody on the catwalk, you hear a quiet knock come from inside the room you just left.
[10:21pm] tretter: He uses his pack to lift the man's feet up.
[10:21pm] Soulless: "..."
[10:21pm] Alivi: Eriko looks up and looks at Stoat.
[10:21pm] tretter: "He's in shock."
[10:21pm] Snowshoe: The man yanks his feet away from ross and curls back into the fetal position.
[10:21pm] Soulless: "Let's not open the door."
[10:21pm] Soots: chloe gets up
[10:21pm] Snowshoe: The knock comes again, slightly louder. You hear a muffled voice from behind the door, but you can't understand it.
[10:21pm] Alivi: Eriko goes over to the door.
[10:21pm] Alivi: "Hello?"
[10:21pm] tretter: Ross readjusts the coat, and feels for a fever.
[10:22pm] Soots: She glances at stoat and goes over to the door.
[10:22pm] tretter: "Erico, don't."
[10:22pm] Alivi: "I'm not going to open it..."
[10:22pm] Snowshoe: Ross, the man is icy cold. You cannot be that cold and be alive.
[10:22pm] lurkd: Elif looks at the other doors with red lights.
[10:22pm] Snowshoe: Eriko, you hear a voice from inside. "..pen up, I'd like to have a word!"
[10:22pm] Snowshoe: The knock comes again.
[10:23pm] Alivi: "No, tell me now."
[10:23pm] Soots: "Who is it?"
[10:23pm] Alivi: "Talk first then we can open..."
[10:23pm] Soots: "What do you want?"
[10:23pm] Alivi: Eriko puts a hand up to Chloe.
[10:23pm] Alivi: She tries to listen
[10:23pm] Soulless: "..." Stoat has her knives out, cautious.
[10:23pm] Snowshoe: Nobody but Eriko can hear the voice, and it's /very/ quiet.
[10:23pm] Snowshoe: Everyone can hear the knocking.
[10:23pm] tretter: "Guys, give me blankets, jackets, anything to cover this man."
[10:24pm] Alivi: "What is it you want to say? I can hear you..."
[10:24pm] Snowshoe: The knocking comes again more quickly, and then you hear something like a sigh. "...ther door."
[10:24pm] Alivi: Eriko sighs.
[10:24pm] Alivi: She opens the door.
[10:24pm] Soulless: Stoat tenses up.
[10:24pm] Soots: Chloe takes over her jacket and tosses it to Tretter
[10:25pm] tretter: *Ross
[10:25pm] lurkd: Elif holds out her wrench ready to swing.
[10:25pm] Soots: *Ross
[10:25pm] Snowshoe: One moment, please.
[10:25pm] Soots: Chloe's ready with her machete.
[10:26pm] Snowshoe: Eriko, you see one of the creatures from the vat. It is human-shaped, and standing just inside. It is entirely covered in a thick layer of black ash, except for an area just around its mouth.
[10:26pm] Snowshoe: It is not moving to hurt you.
[10:26pm] Snowshoe: Perception, Eriko.
[10:26pm] tretter: Ross grabs the jacket that was thrown at the fourth wall and uses it to cover the man.
[10:26pm] Alivi: 6df+8
[10:26pm] Glacon: Alivi: 7 (6df+8=-, -, +, -, 0, +)
[10:27pm] Soulless: Stoat is watching Eriko, tense and ready for anything.
[10:27pm] Soots: Chloe is tense and ready for action.
[10:27pm] Snowshoe: You notice that, even though the creature is silent, the mouth is still working the same way as the bodies in 1D. You can hear very quiet gasps. A thick black rope extends from the back of the creature's neck into the ceiling, you cannot see the other end of it.
[10:27pm] Snowshoe: It waves at you jerkily.
[10:27pm] Alivi: Eriko enters the room to get closer to it.
[10:27pm] Snowshoe: Unpause.
[10:27pm] Alivi: "what is it?"
[10:27pm] Magnobile left the chat room. (Connection reset by peer)
[10:28pm] Magnobile joined the chat room.

[10:29pm] Soots left the chat room. (Be right back; going to the moon. )
[10:29pm] Soots joined the chat room.
[10:29pm] Snowshoe: It speaks in a raspy, whispery voice. The mouth works independently of the words coming out of it, constantly gasping even when the thing isn't talking.
[10:29pm] Snowshoe: "Believe you met a friend of mine."
[10:29pm] Snowshoe: The thing walks oddly out the door, towards the man on the catwalk.
[10:29pm] Alivi: "…I might have…can you tell me who it was?"
[10:29pm] tretter: Ross checks the man for a pulse.
[10:30pm] Alivi: Eriko turns and follows it.
[10:30pm] tretter: Ross looks at who
[10:30pm] tretter: *Who's approaching
[10:30pm] Tehpillowstar joined the chat room.
[10:30pm] tretter: Does the man have a pulse?
[10:30pm] Snowshoe: No, but he's still muttering. His muttering gets louder and more frantic as the thing approaches.
[10:31pm] Alivi: "Wait!" Eriko attempts to stop it.
[10:31pm] tretter: "Guys, this man is dead."
[10:31pm] Snowshoe: You hear the word 'puppet' repeated much more often in his gibberish.
[10:31pm] lurkd: Elif jumps between the man and the thing and gets ready to swing. "NO!"
[10:31pm] Soulless: Stoat gets in front of the man.
[10:31pm] tretter: "He is not clinically alive. And his blood, what little I see isn't exactly red."
[10:32pm] Soulless: "Figures."
[10:32pm] Snowshoe: The thing ignores Eriko. It's now standing directly over the man.
[10:32pm] Tehpillowstar: Chloe tries to protect Ross
[10:32pm] Tehpillowstar: And the man too
[10:32pm] Soulless: Stoat's in front of the thing.
[10:32pm] Alivi: Eriko tries to pull the thing back.
[10:32pm] tretter: "You, get away."
[10:32pm] Soulless: She has her knives out along with her extra hands.
[10:32pm] lurkd: Elif is there too.
[10:32pm] tretter: "This man needs help. Please step back until the situation is cleared."
[10:33pm] tretter: Ross slowly slides his pistol out with his other hand.
[10:33pm] Snowshoe: The thing reaches out a foot towards the man, and lightly taps him on the shoulder with it. The man shrieks and scrambles away from the thing, hurling himself towards the edge of the catwalk.
[10:33pm] Snowshoe: Strength, ross.
[10:33pm] Soulless: Well, shit.

[10:38pm] pillow: Chloe gasps.
[10:38pm] Snowshoe: Eriko, the thing catches you squarely in the chest with a solid punch. You feel something hook into you as its hand connects, and you fall back away from it.
[10:39pm] lurkd: Elif takes out her box cutter and grabs its cord.
[10:39pm] Alivi: Eriko falls to the ground. She cries out in pain. She looks down, "DON'T!"

[10:40pm] Alivi: "Stoat…make them stop something's wrong."
[10:40pm] Snowshoe: Eriko, you notice you've got a very thin black cord running between you and the thing.
[10:40pm] Soulless: "Everyone back off from it."
[10:41pm] lurkd: Elif listens to Eriko and tries to pull it by the cord instead.  She tries to tie it against something.
[10:41pm] Alivi: "It's connected to me"
[10:41pm] pillow: Does Chloe notice Eriko's cord?
[10:41pm] Soulless: "It- What."
[10:41pm] tretter: "Talk to it, stay calm."
[10:41pm] Alivi: Eriko takes a deep breath.
[10:41pm] tretter: "Use your thoughts."
[10:41pm] Snowshoe: The cord from the thing's neck is taut, there's no room for you to pull or tie it.
[10:41pm] lurkd: roll for strength?
[10:41pm] Snowshoe: If you're trying to cut it, sure.
[10:42pm] lurkd: Elif let's go.
[10:42pm] Alivi: Eriko tries to speak to it using her thoughts. "Hello?"
[10:42pm] pillow: Chloe glances at Elif then at Eriko.
[10:42pm] Soulless: "..." Stoat gets ready to cut the cord if necessary.
[10:42pm] Snowshoe: The thing is holding very still, waiting for something to move. It does not react to Eriko's voice.
[10:43pm] pillow: She lowers her weapons somewhat, but is ready to cut the cord at anytime.
[10:43pm] Alivi: Eriko tries to get up.
[10:43pm] pillow: she looks at Stoat, trying to convey the message
[10:43pm] Snowshoe: It watches Eriko stand. You feel the cord tighten as you do, there's no slack in it.
[10:43pm] Alivi: Eriko winces.
[10:44pm] Alivi: her hand goes to the cord. She tries to back away.
[10:44pm] tretter: Ross walks up to the thing.
[10:44pm] pillow: "Eriko..."
[10:44pm] tretter: "If the need arises, I'll take this over with me."
[10:44pm] Snowshoe: Eriko manages a few steps back, then the thing jerks and the cord stops extending. She can go back no further.
[10:44pm] Soulless: "Ross. No."
[10:44pm] Alivi: "No…don't..."
[10:44pm] Soulless: "That won't be necessary."
[10:44pm] Alivi: Eriko looks at them.
[10:44pm] Soulless: Stoat nods to Chloe.
[10:44pm] Alivi: "Don't interfere...Don't..."
[10:44pm] Snowshoe: The thing speaks. "I can understand you."

[10:49pm] Alivi: Eriko is gasping for breath. Obviously rattled.
[10:49pm] Snowshoe: The thing is still on the catwalk, back against the wall.
[10:49pm] pillow: Chloe still has the machete out, ready to either sever Eriko's connection of the creature's cord.
[10:50pm] Soulless: She nods to Chloe. This is over.

[10:50pm] Alivi: "Ok...Ok...."
[10:50pm] lurkd: Elif puts her hands on her gun.

[11:05pm] Alivi: is it the same as the other stuff from earlier?
[11:05pm] Snowshoe: Ross is pulled onto the catwalk, though he's still connected to the thing.
[11:06pm] Alivi: Eriko pulls out her sample.
[11:06pm] Alivi: To compare.
[11:06pm] Snowshoe: No. This liquid is completely opaque. The thing seems unaware of it. Its cord seems to be thinning as it drips.
