In which Boss enters

<yzabtech[DM]> ==START==
<TB> (oh)
<yzabtech[DM]> ((what thing))
<GM> ((nvm))
<yzabtech[DM]> You both see a button on your screen.
<yzabtech[DM]> "Confirm entry order? GM -> TB"
* GM clicks confirm
* TB frowns slightly and clicks confirm
<yzabtech[DM]> TB's screen changes to a black screen. "Entry in progress...."
<yzabtech[DM]> GM sees a young troll woman in a cleared room.
<yzabtech[DM]> A bodyguard is near her.
<yzabtech[DM]> ((is jackal in the same room?))
<TB> ((he is clearing a room for the machines with sardon))
<yzabtech[DM]> ((whoops))
<GM> ((i assume i can message boss?))
<yzabtech[DM]> ((yes))
<GM> Hey boss
<GM> Are you okay?
<TB> I am alright. Admittedly, a bit flustered
<TB> I do not like unexpected guests
<GM> I am too. This game... Oh.
<GM> Who came to visit?
<TB> What game
<GM> Sburb.
<TB> Apparently the President of United States
<GM> What??
<GM> Why?
<TB> The same SBURB I just activated?
<GM> Yes.
<TB> He said he needed haven
<GM> Someone helped me with the game, so I'm here to help you
<GM> Why would he need haven with you?
<TB> I am not sure, however, that is a service I provide
-NickServ- yzabtech!~yzabtech@pool-108-46-255-59.nycmny.fios.verizon.net has just authenticated as you (yzabtech)
* yzabtech (~yzabtech@pool-108-46-255-59.nycmny.fios.verizon.net) has joined
* ChanServ gives channel operator status to yzabtech
<GM> In what way?
* yzabtech is now known as PresSardon
<GM> Like a non-governmental mercenary?
<GM> ((you guys there?))
<yzabtech[DM]> ((yeah i'm waiting for logan to say something))
<GM> ((TB))
<yzabtech[DM]> Phrody notices the interface on her screen. Three strange machines and a pre-punched card.
<TB> That is a good way to put it. I do odd jobs that involve force.
<GM> ((dang it, didnt ping))
<GM> Something popped up onto my screen.
<GM> Two people... a troll woman and some person.
<yzabtech[DM]> ((nvm it's only the troll woman))
<yzabtech[DM]> ((jackal's with sardon in another room))
<GM> But, i see. You sound basically like a person from a video game I like.
<GM> Either way, now I just see a troll.
<TB> ((fun reminder that Jackal is a massive clown troll))
<TB> Oh, you do? What kind of troll?
<GM> And a bunch of stuff on a menu.
<GM> A woman, pretty tall wearing a trenchcoat kind of like mine
<GM> But a different color.
<TB> Huh... Is she missing an eye?
<GM> Yes, it looks like it
<TB> Do I have my camera on?
* TB looks to see if the light is on
<GM> Uh, not sure, why?
<TB> That sounds like me
* TB gets up and looks for a camera that is facing her
<yzabtech[DM]> No cameras you can see.
* TB returns to her computer
<TB> Did you see me move? Or rather, the woman
<GM> Yes, it's you?
<TB> Hold on
<TB> I am going to raise my arm up
<TB> And if the woman does that on your screen
<TB> Let's both assume it is me
<GM> Alright.
* TB stands up and waves at nothing a bit awkwardly, eye shifting around uncomfortably
<yzabtech[DM]> GM sees it.
<GM> It's you, I saw the woman wave around awkwardly.
<TB> I did not think I was that awkward
<GM> It wasn't too bad, just a little
<TB> Hm. Very well
<GM> So, i have a menu of machines.
<GM> I'm going to need to place them at some point
<GM> Is there a good area to do that? They're quite large
<PresSardon> "The spare room is prepared," Sardon calls from the other room.
<TB> Yes, follow me.
<GM> Me?
<GM> How?
* TB gets up and goes to the room that Jackal has cleared
<TB> You are on the camera, right?
<PresSardon> The camera automatically follows the woman.
<GM> Yes... Oh it seems to follow you.
<yzabtech[DM]> ((crap wrong tab whatever))
<GM> ((it's ok))
<TB> Weird
<TB> Will this room work?
<GM> Looks good.
<TB> Excellent.
* TB motions for Sardon and Jackal to leave the room
<yzabtech[DM]> Sardon steps to the side, but stands in the doorway, hands behind his back.
<GM> So the first machine is called a Cruxtruder.
<GM> I'm going to place it
<GM> It's the first one you'll deal with
* GM moves the cursor to cruxtruder and places it in a corner of the room.
<TB> Understood. What am I to do with it
<GM> There's a wheel on it, turn it
<GM> Something will pop out
<TB> Copy that.
<GM> Then you'll bring it to the Totem Lathe which i'm going to place
* GM places the totem lathe
* TB motions to Jackal to follow her and goes to the Cruxtruder and starts to spin the wheel
* GM places card
<GM> I placed a card in the middle of the room
<GM> You'll need it for the other machine
* GM places alchemiter
<GM> And lastly, the Alchemiter.
<GM> I'll tell you how to use it in a second
<yzabtech[DM]> TB: roll strength
<TB> (sam what is my STR)
<GM> ((+3))
<TB> (yas)
<TB> !roll 1d20+3
<Kaiserbot[Dice]> rolled 1d20+3 --> [ 1d20=5 ] | {8}
<TB> (fucking dice)
<GM> ((lol))
<yzabtech[DM]> There was an attempte.
<yzabtech[DM]> attempt*
<yzabtech[DM]> what are we, french
<yzabtech[DM]> The attempt wasn't enough, though.
<TB> Damn. Didn't have a good grip, let me try again
<GM> Go ahead.
<TB> Can you give something to do for my associate
<GM> You probably should do all of this
<GM> Why is he dressed so odd?
<TB> Most likely.
<TB> It is his favorite attire
<GM> Oh boy
<TB> !roll 1d20+3 to spin the do-dad
<Kaiserbot[Dice]> rolled 1d20+3 --> [ 1d20=11 ] | {14}
* Disconnected (Connection reset by peer)
* yzabtech[DM] is already in use. Retrying with yzabtech_...
* yzabtech_ sets mode +i on yzabtech_
-NickServ- yzabtech_ is not a registered nickname.
* Now talking on #RPGStuck_RedLotus
<GM> ((what is even happening))
<yzabtech> ((i don't know
<yzabtech> ))
* yzabtech has quit (Killed (NickServ (GHOST command used by yzabtech_)))
* You are now known as yzabtech
* ChanServ gives channel operator status to yzabtech
<GM> ((i mean with all the tabs lol))
* yzabtech_ (~yzabtech@pool-108-46-255-59.nycmny.fios.verizon.net) has joined

<TB> ((in which mike's computer has a spazz attack)

<yzabtech[DM]> ((fucking finally i got all my IRC server nicks back up))
<yzabtech[DM]> ((why am i even logged into 5 separate servers, i'm not even talking about channels i mean servers))
<TB> (boi)
<GM> ((no idea))
<yzabtech[DM]> The lid pops off, and a ball with a spirograph inside floats out.
<yzabtech[DM]> A cylinder also falls out.
<TB> What the hell
<TB> Was that supposed to have happened?
<GM> Yeah, that happens too
<TB> Hm
<TB> very well
<GM> You have to throw something in it
<TB> And what will that do?
<GM> And take the cylinder to the totem lathe with the card.
<TB> Is the other machine you placed in here?
<PresSardon> "That is the sprite. It acts as the game-given guide, with varying degrees of usefulness depending on what you prototype it with."
<GM> Yes, all three are here
<TB> "Is that so? What would make it more or less useful?"
<PresSardon> "It's usually not very useful past a certain point, except for moral support."
* TB gathers the card and cylinder and puts them in place
<TB> "Jackal. Touch the sphere."
<PresSardon> The lathe spins, carving the cylinder into an interesting shape.
<GM> ((lol))
<GM> ((no timer?))
<yzabtech[DM]> ((where we're going, we don't need timers))
<yzabtech[DM]> 1:30
<GM> A timer popped up
<GM> 1:30
<TB> Is that a hour and thirty minutes or a minute and thirty seconds
<GM> One minute and 30 seconds
<TB> If it is the latter, I do not have time for further questioning
<TB> Affirmative
<GM> It looks like it's carving.
<yzabtech[DM]> It stopped carving a few seconds ago.
<GM> Are you going to put anything into the orb?
<yzabtech[DM]> "Jackal is your name, correct? If you touch the sphere, you will--"
<yzabtech[DM]> Jackal touches the sphere, and disappears. The orb now has Jackal's face on it.
<TB> (does he retain his form lmao)
<yzabtech[DM]> ((he'll get a form after entry))
<TB> (should I ask sardon to touch it too lol)
<GM> ((lol oh no))
<yzabtech[DM]> ((no he's gonna do other stuff))
<TB> (>:T)
<TB> Do I do something with this carving?
<PresSardon> "Place it on the small pedestal of the third machine."
<GM> Yes, put it on the small platform.
<TB> "Understood."
<yzabtech[DM]> When you do, the machine flashes, and a small candle appears on the center pedestal.
<yzabtech[DM]> It is already lit.
<yzabtech[DM]> As lit as my new mixtape which I'm gonna drop someday just you wait.
<GM> ((-_-))
<TB> (yaas)
<TB> (I swear if im void)
<yzabtech[DM]> The flame starts to flicker out, as the clock runs down.
<TB> And what of this?
<yzabtech[DM]> 0:10, 0:09...
<TB> Dammit.
<GM> Do something with it
<PresSardon> Sardon stays silent and stoic standing solemnly.
<GM> Quick
<yzabtech[DM]> The flame flickers out for good.
* TB hurries to pick up the candle and tries to ignite it again with her lighter
<yzabtech[DM]> The room goes dark, as the clock runs out.
<TB> Don't you die on me!
<yzabtech[DM]> What candle?
<GM> Boss??
<yzabtech[DM]> There is no candle.
<GM> Are you okay???
<yzabtech[DM]> There is only darkness.
<GM> ((light confirmed))
<yzabtech[DM]> ((nnnnnnope))
<TB> (Im fuckin' void bah)
<GM> ((lol
<TB> GM
<yzabtech[DM]> ((you'll have to wait for your classpect. it's only a matter of time before you'll find out though))
<TB> Are you still there
<GM> ((phrode pls be space))
<TB> (b0s dun b voud)
<GM> ((dis 2 much))
<TB> (i have munchies)
<yzabtech[DM]> The room brightens once more.
<GM> ((wait till after))
<TB> "Jackal? Mr. President?"
<yzabtech[DM]> Sardon still stands.
<yzabtech[DM]> Jackal is now a ghost.
<yzabtech[DM]> A realy beefy clown ghost.
<yzabtech[DM]> really*
<TB> "You both alright?"
<PresSardon> "I am in a good condition."
<PresSardon> "You might want to look outside."
<GM> Boss??
<GM> You there??
<TB> "Why do you say that?"
<TB> Yes, GM.
<PresSardon> "Entry is complete."
<GM> You okay?
<PresSardon> "Your abode has changed location to a complex puzzle disguised as a planet."
<TB> "Entry... where or rather what have I entered?"
<GM> You're on a new land now, like me
<TB> "...Right."
<GM> My dad told me about this...
<PresSardon> "The realm of Skaia, the Incipisphere, there are many names for this god-forsaken place."
<GM> I hope you're alright
<TB> At least I am not alone
<PresSardon> "And yet in a strange way, it feels great to be back."
<TB> If that is a good thing or not, remains to be seen
<GM> We're in different areas
<TB> "Back?"
<GM> What is your land like?
<TB> I was not referring to you
<TB> I have not seen it yet
<GM> Oh... The President is still there?
<TB> He seems to be enjoying a stroll down memory lane
<GM> How so?
<yzabtech[DM]> ((did someone say...stroll down memory lane?))
<yzabtech[DM]> ((>:D ))
<TB> (oh no)
<GM> God I wish my dad was here. He'd do the same thing
<TB> Did you lose track of him?
<yzabtech[DM]> ((end it here for now i gotta go to bed))
<TB> (Odds are he is eloping with your mother, it is around 3 PM there)
<GM> Yeah, he tends to disappear... like a wily fox
<GM> I miss him
<TB> Heh. I know the type
<GM> Oh?
<TB> Haha yes, from back in the day
<GM> Explain? Have you had a love interest?
<GM> This is the most emotion i've seen from you
<TB> Yes, by the same name, ironically. Or at least, that was his codename. Fox
<GM> Oh?
<TB> Did I tell you or Tennyn this?
<GM> You haven't told me
<TB> Must have been the latter, this feels familiar
<GM> Can you tell me about him?
<TB> Sure, if memory holds
<GM> First, go explore your land.
<GM> We can discuss this later
<GM> I'm glad you're safe
<TB> This is true.
<TB> Sorry, I get excited sometimes
<TB> Believe it or not
<GM> It's okay :)
<GM> ((we can end now mike))
<TB> (cucked again)
<yzabtech[DM]> ==END==
