  15. [OUTPUT: You're on your ship, of course.]
  16. [OUTPUT: Cyan's just sort of sticking the backup engine parts back into place.]
  17. [OUTPUT: She is way too good at that shit, you swear.]
  18. [> Timeskip roughly 85 minutes.]
  19. [OUTPUT: That isn't how reality works.]
  20. [> Fine, doze off. And set an alarm for 85 minutes.]
  21. >Do surgically-created gems require sleep? Legitimate introspective character-type question here.
  22. [OUTPUT: This is a fascinating question.]
  23. [OUTPUT: Given the fact that you've been a gem for about a day and a half, you can't say you have an answer.]
  24. if the gem is a construct then by 3.5 rules: no.
  25. [OUTPUT: Anyhow, what shall you do to pass the time?]
  26. [> Ignore this blathering. Try gazing out a window or porthole.]
  27. [OUTPUT: You gaze out a window.]
  28. [OUTPUT: Ah, the infinite blackness and lack of all shape that is the Void.]
  29. [OUTPUT: You get lost in the nothingness for a while.]
  30. [> Wonder if there are any eldritch horrors out there.]
  31. [OUTPUT: Yeus.]
  32. [OUTPUT: Thoughts of the Amalgam Interface draw you out of your gazing.]
  33. [OUTPUT: Something is certainly up with it.]
  34. [OUTPUT: You don't quite know what that is, but there's no time like the present, you suppose.]
  35. [> Investigate.]
  36. [OUTPUT: You pull the thing out. It is the same as ever.]
  37. [OUTPUT: Amalgam Interface: A rectangular stone tablet approximately six inches in length, and four in width. On either half is an amethyst holographic projector, met in the middle with the visage of three fuchsia dots, the central one of which is filled with two navy hashes. ]
  38. [OUTPUT: Ask away.]
  39. [> Wonder where the Interface got its name.]
  40. [It isn't really that much of an Amalgam.]
  41. [OUTPUT: You haven't any idea yourself. It was just projected into your mind, as per usual.]
  42. [OUTPUT: Thanks to your gem.]
  43. >Use it?
  44. [OUTPUT: You press your fingers around the object.]
  45. [OUTPUT: The central fuchsia bubble with the navy hashes within sinks down slightly.]
  46. >Have Cyan touch it too
  47. [OUTPUT: The holographic projectors spring to life.]
  48. [OUTPUT: An amethyst screen is emitted from either end, each bearing the sign of a hand.]
  49. [Touch one of the hands and see if it does anything.]
  50. [OUTPUT: The moment your hand sinks into the symbol, you feel an all-encompassing warmth enter your being. The fuchsia dot on your end of the device glows slightly.]
  51. Ask Cyan to place her hand on the other symbol.
  52. [OUTPUT: She stops repairing the backup engine to do so. "What? Oh, okay. I guess?"]
  53. [OUTPUT: The hands both slide to face the center of the device the instant Cyan sticks her hand in. A mixture of classical and dubstep lightly comes forth from the thing.]
  54. [..............]
  55. I knew it. >Dance a bit?
  56. CURRENT chemicalAssailant [CCA] RIGHT NOW responded to memo.
  57. [OUTPUT: "..."]
  58. [OUTPUT: You both start dancing, Cyan mildly warily for a few seconds.]
  59. [OUTPUT: Congratulations. It turns out the Mystic Coin thinks you aren't shit at dancing.]
  60. [OUTPUT: As you get into it, the both of you notice a warmth coming from within.]
  61. [OUTPUT: Then, soon enough, everything is white. You close your eyes.]
  62. [> From within yourselves, or the Amalgam Interface?]
  63. [oh welp]
  64. [OUTPUT: Please enter command.]
  65. >Open your eyes?
  66. [OUTPUT: You open your eyes.]
  67. [OUTPUT: Then, you open your second pair of eyes wait what.]

  69. I KNEW IT
  70. Examine self.
  71. [you knew what]
  72. Fusion.
  73. [OUTPUT: Well, suffice to say, you're Aquamarine now.]
  74. "What happened?
  75. [OUTPUT: "I don't know! You're seeing the same thing I am, right?"]
  76. [OUTPUT: It takes approximately three seconds more for the both of you to realize you are speaking from the same mouth.]
  77. [> Come to terms with your new form of existence.]
  78. Yeah, I don't know anything about weird gem stuff...
  79. [OUTPUT: Surely this isn't permanent.]
  80. >Make an effort to separate.
  81. [OUTPUT: You could always punch yourself in the face until you separate.]
  82. [OUTPUT: But, if you'd rather just do it manually, that's fine too.]
  83. >Do it
  84. [OUTPUT: You feel an acute tearing sensation with the turmoil within yourself, and you find yourself lying on the ground, Cyan next to you.]
  85. [OUTPUT: "..."]
  86. "Well, that happened."
  87. [OUTPUT: "Looks like it."]
  88. [OUTPUT: ETA: 45 minutes.]
  89. Woah, that took a while.
  90. [OUTPUT: Would you like to retrieve the Amalgam Interface?]
  91. >Yes
  92. [OUTPUT: You were in that trance staring out the window for quite some time.]
  93. [OUTPUT: You take it back.]
  94. Ah...
  95. [OUTPUT: Might make for some good utilization in the future, you'd say...]
  96. [OUTPUT: Wink.]
  97. What
  98. [OUTPUT: Nothing.]
  99. [OUTPUT: What would you like to do now?]
  100. >Cyan: Resume fixing backup engine
  101. [> Azure: Doodle.]
  102. [OUTPUT: She does so, after blinking several times confusedly, and offering you a wave.]
  103. [OUTPUT: How would you like to doodle?]
  104. >Don't do that
  105. >Sort scrap piles
  106. [> Don't do that]
  107. [> Doodle]
  108. guys.
  109. [OUTPUT: You sort the four piles of miscellaneous shit into three separate categories.]
  110. >Examine
  111. [OUTPUT: Metal plates, wiring, and core parts.]
  112. >Core parts?
  113. [OUTPUT: You know, cyanic mechanovitae injectors, robotic hearts, thrusters, et cetera.]
  114. Alright...
  115. [OUTPUT: You now have half an hour to spare.]
  116. [Caw.]
  117. >Wonder how long it's been since this morning
  118. >Or, when you woke up anyways
  119. [OUTPUT: When you last woke up, Cyan had just reformed, and been stuck in your ship for six hours.]
  120. [OUTPUT: You'd estimate it has been around eight hours since then.]
  121. >List rooms on ship
  122. [OUTPUT: You've got the deck, the hall, the engine room, the backup engine room, and the storage room.]
  123. damnıt why couldn't ıkea be a prınce
  124. then I could call hım "purrınce ıkea"
  125. Hmm
  126. [OUTPUT: Cyan walks out of the backup engine room, oil stains on her clothing. "I fixed it. That landing was pretty terrible to have done that much to that thing."]
  127. [OUTPUT: She grins. "So, nice work."]
  128. >Thumbs up
  129. [OUTPUT: You give her a thumbs up.]
  130. >Check inventory

  139. [OUTPUT: You do so.]
  140. Hmm...
  141. >Look up what flipside elixir does
  142. [OUTPUT: You gotta turn it flipside, man.]
  143. ...
  144. >Where are the cloth wrappings from?
  145. [OUTPUT: You got those off of the corpses of the Witch-Doctors the Venator killed.]
  146. [OUTPUT: Along with their clothes.]
  147. >Could they be used as... terrible bandages?
  148. [OUTPUT: If you soaked them in antibiotics, you suppose? Quite frankly, this is why medkits exist.]
  149. >Can we make psionic coffee machines?
  150. [OUTPUT: Do you look like some sort of billionaire?]
  151. [OUTPUT: Ruminating on psionic coffee machines will get you nowhere but the future.]
  152. >Take gems out of murder cylinders?
  153. [OUTPUT: You acquire 27 SHATTERED GEMS.]
  154. >Can they be repaired or no
  155. [OUTPUT: They are entirely broken, so probably not.]

  157. >...check if any of them are lapis stones

  161. [OUTPUT: Regardless, you're here.]
  162. >Examine emptied murder-
  163. >Scan sector
  164. [OUTPUT: It appears that the Nu Sector is composed of a singular floating landmass, primarily forest-based.]

  166. Huh...
  167. >Go
  168. [OUTPUT: You land on the outskirts.]
  169. [OUTPUT: Would you like to leave the topaz gem in the ship?]
  170. Hmm, no
  171. >check murder cylınders for anythıng that could be put together ınto a sıngle gem
  172. [OUTPUT: You emptied them.]
  173. [OUTPUT: Regardless, most of the fragments are incomplete.]
  174. >Scan island?
  175. [OUTPUT: There appears to be some sort of repulsion generator in the center of the island.]
  176. [OUTPUT: It'll keep you from just flying over the center.]
  177. Huh...
  178. >Leave ship
  179. [OUTPUT: You and Cyan exit the G.S.S. Exsanguinator.]
  180. [OUTPUT: You are now within the forest.]
  181. >Consider upgrading the ship first
  182. [OUTPUT: You can't do it, but Cyan might... you don't know.]
  183. Didn't you say we could install the things earlier
  184. [OUTPUT: Yes.]
  185. Is upgrading something different or
  186. [OUTPUT: No.]
  187. Okay...
  188. [OUTPUT: The only question here is whether or not you have the technological capabilities to do so out here in the wilderness.]
  189. Ah...
  190. >Ask Cyan
  191. [OUTPUT: She considers it for a few moments.]
  192. [OUTPUT: "I'd have to probably clear out a few of the auxiliary sockets, which would require a good amount of elevation shifting."]
  193. [OUTPUT: "I suppose I could do it here, if we can get that."]
  194. >Have no idea what that means
  195. [OUTPUT: You just sort of blink at her confusedly.]
  196. [OUTPUT: Cyan whispers into your ear. "That's a no."]
  197. >"...ah."
  198. >Head towards the centre of the island
  199. [OUTPUT: You both march into the vegetation.]
  200. [OUTPUT: This thing is has a good twenty kilometer radius, so that might take a while..]
  201. Well.
  202. >Consider alnding closer to the centre?
  203. landing*
  204. [OUTPUT: The sensors show that the repulsor generators make that virtually impossible.]
  205. [OUTPUT: You'd have to be fucking Han Solo to pull that kind of maneuver off.]
  206. >Are you han solo?
  207. Take his advice to heart and you too shall succeed.
  208. [OUTPUT: You are not Han Solo.]
  209. [OUTPUT: Han Solo is a fictional character.]
  210. kek
  211. >Temporary invoke the spirit of Han Solo to do this shit
  212. >Consider other ways of fast travel
  213. [OUTPUT: Eh, you might be able to find a faster way through those moss-covered underground ruins over there.]
  214. [OUTPUT: Then again, they could be a deathtrap.]
  215. ...
  216. >Enter the ruins
  217. [OUTPUT: You both step over some hunks of shattered stone coated in ivy, and descend down the stairs into the depths.]
  218. [OUTPUT: The world below is a maze of underground tunnels, it seems.]
  219. [OUTPUT: Who knows what lies within.]
  220. >Look around
  221. [OUTPUT: You are currently beneath what appears to be a large tree, given the roots in the ceiling.]
  222. [OUTPUT: There's nothing particularly interesting down here. Just two exit paths, and that puddle of mercury over there.]
  223. >Examine puddle
  224. [OUTPUT: You walk over to the puddle.]
  225. [OUTPUT: As if in response, the thing rises up, forming a vaguely arachnid shape.]
  226. [OUTPUT: You are accosted by a FLUID SPIDER.]
  227. >Fight
  228. [OUTPUT: You engage the thing in combat.]
  229. [OUTPUT: ASSAULT / UTILIZE / DEFEND / ABSCOND / OBSERVE]
  230. >Azure: Create a shield of condensed water between the spider and both of you
  231. >Cyan: Shoot plasma beams at the spider
  232. [OUTPUT: Are you sure electricity wouldn't be more effective?]
  233. Hmm
  234. Do we have any?
  235. [OUTPUT: Yes. The whole electrokinesis deal.]
  236. Didn't you say we need a source of electricity
  237. [OUTPUT: Surely you've got something in your inventory.]
  238. >Check inventory
  239. [OUTPUT: AZURE INV: Medkit x3, Water Vial x2, Undulating Water Vial, Welding Equipment, Cthk'aryvt's Blessing/Curse x4, Gem Fragment x3, Ylahrthuian Salt x3, Amalgam Interface, Ashen Topaz Gem (Mildly Damaged), Laser Pointer, Flipside Elixir, Gluon Destabilizer x2, Potion of the Nine.]
  240. [OUTPUT: CYAN INV: δ-ψ-φ-Bioschema, Deactivated Vitae Canister, Medkit x3, Gluon Destabilizer x2.]
  241. [OUTPUT: The welding equipment will certainly function in the electricity department.]
  242. >Cyan: Take laser pointer from azure, use it to send electricity at the spider
  243. Oh.
  244. [OUTPUT: That works too.]
  245. Does amount matter
  246. [OUTPUT: Not substantially enough to matter.]
  247. Alright.
  248. >Do that then
  249. [OUTPUT: You pull up your condensed water shield.]
  250. [OUTPUT: Cyan manages to hit the Fluid Spider directly in the center of its body. Mercury is rather conductive. The spider shudders, sparks racing down its form.]
  251. [OUTPUT: ENEMY TURN.]
  252. [OUTPUT: Opponent is paralyzed, and cannot act.]
  253. [OUTPUT: YOUR TURN.]
  254. [OUTPUT: ASSAULT / UTILIZE / DEFEND / ABSCOND / OBSERVE]
  255. Well
  256. >Azure: Send normal water to cover the mercury spider
  257. I imagine it can't be poisoned?
  258. [OUTPUT: Nope.]
  259. >Cyan: Send electricity at the water surrounding the spider
  260. [OUTPUT: The Fluid Spider is immediately reduced to a puddle. Congrats.]
  261. Hmm, do mercury and water mix?
  262. [OUTPUT: Perhaps.]
  263. [OUTPUT: Would you like to find out?]
  264. >Try it, yeah
  265. [OUTPUT: Shall you mix the mercury with the poisoned water in the undulating vial, or the regular water.]
  266. >Regular water
  267. [OUTPUT: +1 Mercurial Water Vial.]
  268. >Consider exits
  269. [OUTPUT: There's the way you came, and the two before you.]
  270. >Pick the one on the right
  271. [OUTPUT: One leads out to what appears to be a ravine of some sort, the other further into the depths.]
  272. Oh
  273. Hmm
  274. >Yeah, one on the right
  275. [OUTPUT: You head further into the depths.]
  276. [OUTPUT: The topaz gem is starting to heat up once more.]
  277. Damn, forgot to put it in the case
  278. >Look around
  279. [OUTPUT: You reach another intersection.]
  280. [OUTPUT: This one has three paths to traverse. Left, right, and center.]
  281. >Right
  282. [OUTPUT: You head right once more.]
  283. [OUTPUT: The room you enter appears to be filled with storage crates, as well as several lit furnaces.]
  284. >Examine furnaces
  285. [OUTPUT: They are rather standard, appearing to power boilers elsewhere.]
  286. [OUTPUT: Corotite plating, wood-based burning.]
  287. >Examine storage crates
  288. [OUTPUT: There's five large crates, and two smaller ones. They can all be pried open with water hands, likely.]
  289. >Open
  290. [OUTPUT: The five large crates yield a full meteorite, three hunks of broken machinery, and a full human skeleton.]
  291. Well
  292. >Take meteorite
  293. >Examine machinery
  294. [OUTPUT: +4 Hunks of Meteoric Iron.]
  295. [OUTPUT: It is mostly just early nineties computer technology.]
  296. [OUTPUT: Really quite incompatible with the marvels of today.]
  297. >Take cubes
  298. [OUTPUT: You mean the oaken crates?]
  299. Oh...
  300. [OUTPUT: You cannot exactly carry these.]
  301. [OUTPUT: They are quite large.]
  302. [OUTPUT: You have yet to examine the smaller crates.]
  303. >Open small crates
  304. [OUTPUT: The first one has a few bottles of water.]
  305. [OUTPUT: The second... the second has something quite interesting indeed.]
  306. >Examine?
  307. [OUTPUT: It is a Draught of Tears. You cannot examine it further without taking it.]
  308. >Take, then examine
  309. [OUTPUT: Draught of Tears: A corked vial of rose quartz, filled with some sort of unknown substance. You haven't any idea what this thing does. That which is dead can eternal lie, o'er altar grave and incensed sky.]
  310. huh
  311. neat
  312. >Does it have water
  313. [OUTPUT: It appears to be water-based.]
  314. >take out topaz gem
  315. [OUTPUT: Tears, perchance? Or perhaps saliva.]
  316. [OUTPUT: You take out the topaz gem.]
  317. >Take bottles of water first
  318. >pour some tears on topaz
  319. [OUTPUT: +2 Bottles of Water.]
  320. [OUTPUT: ERROR: Incorrect ritual parameters.]
  321. Hmm
  322. >Take small crates?
  323. so we need altar grave and ıncensed sky...
  324. What
  325. [OUTPUT: +2 Miniature Oak Crate.]
  326. to heal, prob
  327. [OUTPUT: It was quite well hidden.]
  328. [OUTPUT: Observe the description once more.]
  329. Hmm
  330. >Check exits
  331. [OUTPUT: There's only one way to go.]
  332. >Take the machinery, why not
  333. Is it the entrance?
  334. [OUTPUT: +3 90s Computer Parts.]
  335. [OUTPUT: It is not.]
  336. >Forward
  337. [OUTPUT: You head onwards.]
  338. [OUTPUT: Before you get much further, you can hear the sounds of plasma on flesh and energy blasts in the distance.]
  339. [OUTPUT: Just down the hall...]
  340. Huh...
  341. >Bring up shields, press forward
  342. [OUTPUT: You do so.]
  343. [OUTPUT: You pop out in the bottom of a ravine filled with vegetation.]
  344. [OUTPUT: You can clearly see an armored form battling what appears to be goblins with energy rifles.]
  345. >Is the armoured form that guy from last time
  346. [OUTPUT: You both crane your necks to see.]
  347. [OUTPUT: That is indeed the Venator.]
  348. >Consider if he needs help
  349. [OUTPUT: In response, you see him decapitate four goblins with one sweeping strike.]
  350. >How many goblins are therr
  351. There
  352. [OUTPUT: Not counting corpses, fourteen.]
  353. >Watch
  354. [OUTPUT: The Venator impales a goblin through the chest, using the body as a shield from another goblin's plasma rifle, before promptly impaling that one as well.]
  355. >goblins
  356. top kek.
  357. more HLD references, good nice
  358. [OUTPUT: Hah.]
  359. [OUTPUT: He then tosses down a round object, and leaps back, in your direction.]
  360. [OUTPUT: A spray of blood from the location of the goblins is your only response.]
  361. [OUTPUT: This guy is a badass.]
  362. [OUTPUT: Anyhow, the Venator just sort of walks back to the other end of the ravine, sheathing his weapon.]
  363. >Approach him?
  364. [OUTPUT: You do so.]
  365. [OUTPUT: The Venator does not really look at you, in any manner whatsoever.]
  366. [OUTPUT: In fact, he seems more focused on a slate door with a single pentagonal carving in the center.]
  367. [OUTPUT: Please enter command.]
  368. Hmm
  369. >Loot energy rifles, watch him
  370. [OUTPUT: +18 Plasma Rifles.]
  371. [OUTPUT: He appears to be muttering to himself, letting out an occasional nasty hacking cough.]
  372. >Stay some distance away
  373. [OUTPUT: "Surely it isn't the Sanguine lock. The last time I saw that was at the eldritch Lambda Manufactory. Alas."]
  374. [OUTPUT: He runs a finger around the inside of the carving, noting the internal marks and slits.]
  375. [OUTPUT: Then, he looks over to the two of you. "Oh, yes. Good evening."]
  376. >"... You too"
  377. [OUTPUT: "You'll want the door on the right. Similarly, the gravestone altar requires three pools of the Rose Liquid, with two burnings of a blessing and a curse."]
  378. [OUTPUT: He gestures to another door on the other side of the ravine.]
  379. Hmm.
  380. Was the Rose Liquid the stuff we skipped?
  381. [OUTPUT: Ask him.]
  382. >Ask him what Rose Liquid is
  383. [OUTPUT: "You're the ones with it, no? Bodily fluid sealed away in the quartz from whence it likely came."]
  384. [OUTPUT: "Tears, saliva, whichever it may be."]
  385. Oh...
  386. >"Thank you. "
  387. >Enter right door
  388. [OUTPUT: The Venator pulls out an object akin to the bloodstone device he kicked over to you back in the Psi Sector.]
  389. [OUTPUT: He distractedly waves a goodbye as he slides the thing into the pentagonal carving, unsealing the door.]
  390. [OUTPUT: You enter the other door he gestured to.]
  391. [OUTPUT: Shall you head onwards?]
  392. >Yes
  393. [OUTPUT: You march into the depths. The topaz gem's heat begins to grow somewhat unbearable.]
  394. >Put in on the ground, wait
  395. [OUTPUT: You pull out the gem. The thing is actually glowing from the heat. You set it on the earth before you.]
  396. [OUTPUT: The thing pulsates with energy thrice, before rising into the air.]
  397. [OUTPUT: Orange light flows forth, forming the vestiges of a body.]
  398. [OUTPUT: The form glitches out, morphing in thin air.]
  399. [OUTPUT: The energy begins to subside...]
  400. [OUTPUT: Then, it forms back into a humanoid shape, solidifies, and drops somebody to the floor.]
  401. [OUTPUT: They begin gasping up the air as if it were some sort of elixir of life.]
  402. >Is it some bird man
  403. [OUTPUT: It is not some demented bird man.]
  404. [OUTPUT: It's the girl from earlier.]
  405. >"... Are you okay?"
  406. [OUTPUT: She gulps up more air, attempting and failing to sit up. "Do... do I look okay?" She coughs violently.]
  407. >Help her up
  408. [OUTPUT: You pull her up. In doing so, you can feel the intense bodily heat she possesses. Unnaturally high. "T-thanks."]
  409. >"What's your name? "
  410. hm
  411. that works
  412. [OUTPUT: She thinks about it for a second, a horrified expression gradually settling on her face. "I... I don't know."]
  413. [OUTPUT: She hacks up what appears to be a mixture of blood and ash.]
  414. >"Are you hurt?"
  415. [OUTPUT: "I feel like I'm... on fire?"]
  416. Hmm.
  417. >"Mind if I, uh... Try to cool you down? "
  418. [OUTPUT: Cyan looks over to you. "Should we bring her back to the ship?"]
  419. >"Probably. "
  420. [OUTPUT: The girl shrugs. "How?"]
  421. splash her ın the face
  422. >"Water. "
  423. Pretty much tbh
  424. [OUTPUT: "Oh, um. Sure. I guess."]
  425. [OUTPUT: And that's as far as she gets before she collapses down onto the ground again.]
  426. [OUTPUT: "Fuck. Ow."]
  427. >Splash some water on her
  428. >Then bring her back to the ship
  429. [OUTPUT: You splash water on her. It has no real effect. Well, her form does glitch out entirely for a few seconds afterwards, but you'd attribute that to the chip in the gem rather than the water.]
  430. [OUTPUT: You and Cyan carry her back to the ship.]
  431. Should probably have turned on Strangelove earlier...
  432. [OUTPUT: You can do it once more, of course.]
  433. >Do so
  434. [OUTPUT: "HELLO, MASTERS LAPIS AND AMARANTHINE. WHAT IS IT YOU DESIRE."]
  435. >Motion at... Nameless girl
  436. [OUTPUT: "AH, YES. OF COURSE. PLEASE STAND BY."]
  437. [OUTPUT: Strangelove floats over to the girl, and a scanner emerges from his form.]
  438. [OUTPUT: "SCANNING... SCANNING... SCANNING..."]
  439. [OUTPUT: "SCAN COMPLETE. TEST NINETY-FIVE PERCENT POSITIVE FOR UNCONFIRMED ASHEN PLAGUE OF SORTS."]
  440. ıt's hard to belıeve I drew up 21 cats
  441. >"What is Ashen Plague?"
  442. [OUTPUT: "ONE HUNDRED PERCENT POSITIVE FOR LIFE ESSENCE DAMAGE."]
  443. [OUTPUT: "THE ASHEN PLAGUE IS SOME SORT OF VILE AFFLICTION FROM THE DEPTHS OF THE ARCANE. IT HAS NOT BEEN SEEN IN THE GRAYHOLDIAN VOID FOR NEARLY ONE HUNDRED FIFTY YEARS."]
  444. >"Can you... Treat her?"
  445. [OUTPUT: "WHATEVER THIS IS, IT IS ASSUREDLY PROGRESSING. I CAN DO NOTHING AT THE PRESENT TIME."]
  446. [OUTPUT: "UNLESS YOU DESIRE EUTHANASIA."]
  447. >"... Is treatment possible?"
  448. ok, anything needed?
  449. [OUTPUT: "THIS IS NOT SOME WORLD OF THE VALCONIC. IF IT EXISTS, WE CAN TREAT IT."]
  450. thıs ıs clearly a good use of my tıme
  451. uh, ask tazz
  452. also I need to fix my highlight thingy
  453. >"What's needed?
  454. [OUTPUT: "I DO NOT KNOW. THE LEAST YOU CAN DO IS FIX UP THE GEM IN HER, I WOULD SAY."]
  455. [OUTPUT: "THEN, EXTRACTION OF THE DISORDER WOULD BE OPTIMAL."]
  456. >"How would her gem be fixed?"
  457. [OUTPUT: "THAT WHICH IS DEAD CAN ETERNAL LIE, O'ER ALTAR GRAVE AND INCENSED SKY."]
  458. >"What's incensed sky?"
  459. [OUTPUT: "TYPICALLY AIR POSSESSING OF SOME DEGREE OF BURNT ARCANE MATERIALS, GENERALLY OF ELDRITCH VARIANTS."]
  460. Hmm...
  461. >"What's altar grave?"
  462. [OUTPUT: "YOU HAVE ALREADY BEEN TOLD THIS, UNLESS I AM MISTAKEN."]
  463. Oh, right... Is it only the rose liquid?
  464. [OUTPUT: A trio of tears and two burnt offerings of blessings and curses.]
  465. Hmm, alright.
  466. >"What happens if she isn't treated?"
  467. [OUTPUT: "GEM CORRUPTION IS A NASTY AND UNPREDICTABLE AFFAIR."]
  468. >"She won't, uh... Explode or become a birdman, right?"
  469. [OUTPUT: "IT IS A DISTINCT POSSIBILITY, HOWEVER NEGLIGIBLE."]
  470. >"Could you watch her if we left her on board?"
  471. [OUTPUT: "PERHAPS. BUT I AM NO ARMED GUARD."]
  472. >"... Can you be armed? We have arms."
  473. [OUTPUT: "WHAT WOULD YOU GRANT ME?"]
  474. >Show him a plasma rifle thing
  475. [OUTPUT: "AH, YES. GOBLIN PLASMA RIFLE, FOREST-MADE. NU-CLASS, AM I INCORRECT?"]
  476. >"...probably not. "
  477. [OUTPUT: "THIS WILL SUFFICE. ATTACH THE CORE MECHANISM TO MY BODILY FORM."]
  478. >Do that
  479. [OUTPUT: You pull out the plasma projector and cartridge, and attach them to Strangelove's auxiliary socket.]
  480. [OUTPUT: "I WILL CONTACT YOU IF SOMETHING GOES AWRY. I HAVE YOUR NUMBER. AND THAT OF EVERYONE YOU KNOW."]
  481. >Check on Topaz before leaving
  482. [OUTPUT: Cyan's been sitting next to her whilst you were talking.]
  483. >Also drop off crates and all but one plasma rifle
  484. [OUTPUT: She doesn't look much better. On the other hand, she doesn't look much worse either.]
  485. [OUTPUT: You do that.]
  486. >Drop off machinery too
  487. Meteors...
  488. >Drop them off, yeah
  489. [OUTPUT: Everything specified is now in the ship.]
  490. [OUTPUT: Would you like to save your game?]
  491. >Yes
  492. [OUTPUT: Saving...]
  493. [OUTPUT: Saving...]
  494. [OUTPUT: Game saved successfully. Would you like to quit?]
  495. >y
  496. [OUTPUT: Game quit. Have a nice day.]
