Ru's Entry

@DM
While Alya talks to this new person, she can see a couple menus available to her and a cursor in the middle of the screen. When she opens the menus she can see that one has the same machines as the ones in her house now and a pre-punched captcha card, while the other has options for adding and removing walls, floors, and stairs.
impishNuminous
"Oh, so I'm dooming this person now?" You just stare at the screen.
joyousDream
JD: Do you have any idea how to play this?
You look at your screen for any hints
impishNuminous
IN: Not really no.
IN: You are on Earth right?
joyousDream
JD: Yep, why would I not be?
impishNuminous
IN: Can you check if **** Military Camp is ok?
You suck in a breath.
joyousDream
IN: A Military Camp? I'm not sure I know where that is.
You glance to your window
impishNuminous
IN: You do know that meteors are attacking everywhere right?
@DM
You can see smoke in the sky as the sun sets and it turns red.
impishNuminous
Screw it, you check it out yourself on the internet. Is the camp ok dm ?
joyousDream
JD: wait what
JD: meteors? Is everything ok?
@DM
The DM reminds Alya not to talk directly to her. She finds some news of smoke and fire in the area of the military base but most stories are talking about the multiple cities that have been blown off the face of the planet.
impishNuminous
IN: Naw dude, your friends are gonna die
IN: Everything
IN: But luckily I can save you, I think
joyousDream
JD: this is just a prank right? this can't be happening......
You start to panic
impishNuminous
When you read the articles, you sigh in frustration.
joyousDream
JD: How can you save me if I'm about to get hit by a meteor
impishNuminous
IN: Dunno
You deploy the machines in the available spaces that this dude has.
IN: JK its a prank dude
joyousDream
You look around your room.
@DM
You shove the Alchemiter in the middle of the living room, crushing the coffee table. The cruxtruder goes in front of the front door and the dowel lathe ends up in the kitchen, in front of the fridge. Just the prepunched card left to drop.
Each on makes a loud thumping noise and shakes the house a bit.
joyousDream
"Holy shit"
impishNuminous
IN: I'm a superior entity playing a prank on you
joyousDream
JD: Did you do this
impishNuminous
IN: Yeh
joyousDream
JD: WHY ARE THERE MACHINES IN MY HOUSE
JD: THAT COFFEE TABLE COST A LOT
impishNuminous
IN: Cuz it's all a prank
joyousDream
JD: are you human
impishNuminous
IN: Nah I died some minutes ago
joyousDream
JD: I.. Don't understand anymore
JD: What do these machines do
You inspect the machine in the living room
@DM
It's a large flat pad with some sort of pole going up next to it and a smaller pad coming off of the pole at around shoulder height. It has the SBURB spirograph on it.
impishNuminous
IN: You are supposed to make some card
IN: Wait, wasn't it open the tube thing?
@DM
Alya has the option to drop the card.
joyousDream
You look for a tube
impishNuminous
"Here it is." You drop the card.
@DM
You see the cruxtruder which is mostly a tube?
Alya drops the card on Ru's head.
joyousDream
JD: Ow. Thanks
JD: what do I do with this card
You look for anywhere to insert a card
@DM
You can't see anywhere right now but you can't get a good look at the dowel thing. It's blocked by the kitchen island.
You feel a slight tremor go through the house and screeching tires somewhere in the distance.
joyousDream
You run towards the kitchen
JD: How long do I have before I'm dead? Slight worry...
impishNuminous
IN: Time
@DM
There's no room to walk on either side of the lathe, but you're pretty sure you see a slot on one side. You'd have to climb onto the counter to get to it.
impishNuminous
You pick the kitchen island and throw it outta the way.
@DM
Roll dex
impishNuminous
!roll 1d20+3
Kaiserbot[Dice]
rolled 1d20+3 --> [ 1d20=13 ] | {16}
@DM
You successfully avoid crushing Ru and send the kitchen island flying through the wall, where there was once a window and the stove hood and a few cabinets. Ru can see his dad's car coming down the street through it.
impishNuminous
"LUL"
joyousDream
JD: Thanks for not killing me with that
impishNuminous
IN: I gotchu
joyousDream
JD: good news, I can see the dowel thing, bad news, my dads here, he's a famous chef guy and he probably doesn't want me playing around with random machines and is probably going to get me to a safe bunker... So I have to hurry up
You look at the dowel
@DM
Yep there's a slot on the side of it that looks about right for a card. Kinda like a slot on an ATM.
impishNuminous
You search where you put the cruxtruder
joyousDream
You insert the card
@DM
It's directly in front of the front door.
impishNuminous
You drop the kitchen counter on it.
@DM
The machine whirrs to life and a sharp spike descends before the two bars spin quickly and then it recedes. The card pops back out.
joyousDream
You look to see if anything is different on the card
@DM
Roll dex to get the counter out of the garage wall, where it has become embedded
The card is exactly the same.
impishNuminous
!roll 1d20+3
Kaiserbot[Dice]
rolled 1d20+3 --> [ 1d20=15 ] | {18}
joyousDream
Has the machine changed?
@DM
You yank the counter back into the building and smash some of the ceiling as you do. Ru, roll dex to dodge debris.
joyousDream
!roll 1d20-1
Kaiserbot[Dice]
rolled 1d20-1 --> [ 1d20=8 ] | {7}
@DM
You get smacked in the head by some drywall and knocked on your ass.
Alya, roll dex for smacking the cruxtruder.
joyousDream
JD: please be more careful
impishNuminous
!roll 1d20+3
Kaiserbot[Dice]
rolled 1d20+3 --> [ 1d20=20 ] | {23}
@DM
You perfectly align the counter so you hit the exact top of the cruxtruder. There's a flash and around 10 teal dowels fly out, along with a floating teal orb.
impishNuminous
IN: better git gud
joyousDream
You look at what's come out
@DM
Meanwhile, Ru's machine remains unchanged. His dad pulls up outside and gets out of the car, staring at the hole in the garage in confusion.
impishNuminous
IN: Incoming dad alert
@DM
The sprite hovers about 5 feet above the ground, just glowing.
joyousDream
JD: thats... great
@DM
The cruxite dowels look about the perfect size for the lathe though.
joyousDream
You look at the sprite in confusion
impishNuminous
IN: You need to feed the beast
joyousDream
"hello?"
JD: Is this you
@DM
He floats enigmatically.
joyousDream
JD: Feed? OK
impishNuminous
IN: It eats ABSOLUTELY anything
@DM
Also, there is a timer on the cruxtruder has started and it says 3 minutes.
joyousDream
You move to the kitchen and grab a baguette
"Are you hungry?"
You toss the whole loaf into the orb
JD: ok I fed it
impishNuminous
IN: But did it eat it tho
@DM
Ok you throw the bread into the sprite and now you have bread sprite.
impishNuminous
IN: :P
@DM
Or baguettesprite
It is a floating baguette
joyousDream
JD: now it is bread. wow
impishNuminous
IN: So then next would be uh... Carve the cylinder thingy
@DM
You hear a thump as your dad attempts to open the front door and is even more confused.
joyousDream
You grab the cylinders and quickly move to the lathe
JD: dads coming.......
impishNuminous
IN: I can "interrupt" him if you wanna
joyousDream
JD: Nothing too bad ok
JD: try not to kill him
You insert the Cylinders into the lathe
@DM
Well you can insert one.
It fits pretty perfect.
joyousDream
You look for an "on" button
@DM
There's no on button. Last time it started when you put the card in it.
impishNuminous
You grab the door and spin it in front of the dad.
joyousDream
You put the card in like last time
@DM
Alya roll dex and please explain what the fuck you're trying to do
impishNuminous
Hypnosis
!roll 1d20+3
Kaiserbot[Dice]
rolled 1d20+3 --> [ 1d20=5 ] | {8}
@DM
You rip it off the wall and smash him in the face with it. Good job.
Now he has a bloody nose to match his son's bleeding head.
impishNuminous
"Nice"
IN: I'm doing a great job BTW
@DM
Meanwhile, the lathe does its thing and Ru ends up with a 60's style center-piece.
joyousDream
JD: By the way, what's your name?
impishNuminous
IN: Do not look outside your house pls
IN: Alya
joyousDream
JD: please say you have not killed my dad Alya
impishNuminous
IN: I haven't
IN: Don't worry about it
@DM
Ru's dad sputters before seeing the opening and going to quickly try and squeeze past the cruxtruder into the house.
joyousDream
JD: so what do I do with this thing?
impishNuminous
IN: Put it in the platform dance floor
IN: Uh, couldn't hold the dad
@DM
"Ru what in the world is going on here?" His dad totally made it inside, woops.
joyousDream
JD: ok great, might not be able to talk for a bit. wish me luck
"I'm saving the world?"
impishNuminous
IN: omega good luck
joyousDream
"Or at least us."
impishNuminous
You look at the timer
joyousDream
You try to bring the piece to the platform
@DM
1:30
"This is all very unusual." Your dad seems less perturbed than you expected, "You've destroyed the house. My poor kitchen...."
He doesn't stop you at least.
impishNuminous
You take the ketchup container if there is one, and write "HURRY UP"
joyousDream
"No, I didn't mean to break your kitchen and the house"
@DM
"My carpet!" He hurriedly goes to clean up the ketchup.
impishNuminous
IN: Dude, 1:30
joyousDream
"Can we talk later, i need to do this, but I'm sorry"
JD: Got it
You look at the platform thing
JD: what do I do with the platform
impishNuminous
IN: Dance with it
joyousDream
JD: no seriously
JD: I don't know what happens when the timer runs out
impishNuminous
IN: Dance dance revolution
@DM
1:00
joyousDream
You inspect the platform
impishNuminous
IN: You put the totem in the smaller platform
IN: :D
joyousDream
JD: thx
You put the item in the platform as instructed
impishNuminous
IN: But also dance on it
@DM
You can not put it in the platform.
It is pretty hard.
impishNuminous
(???? how)
joyousDream
You inspect the whole machine
@DM
The machine is just a couple platforms, nowhere to put anything inside.
joyousDream
You.. dance on it
JD: help
@DM
Roll performance for dancing
joyousDream
JD: what do I do
impishNuminous
IN: I meant put the totem on the platform, the smaller one
joyousDream
!roll 1d20
Kaiserbot[Dice]
rolled 1d20 --> [ 1d20=11 ] | {11}
joyousDream
You also look for a smaller platform
@DM
Your dad judges your dancing before nodding, satisfied.
impishNuminous
IN: Dads are weird
@DM
You spot the smaller platform attached to the side.
joyousDream
"thank god"
you try to put the totem in it
impishNuminous
"It was basically beside it wtf"
@DM
You still can't put it in it but you manage to put it on it.
Are you still standing on the main platform?
joyousDream
Yes
@DM
There's a flash and you feel something heavy on your head.
joyousDream
JD: is there something on my head
@DM
The timer now reads 30 seconds and your dad seems worried, "This may be bad."
alya, there is a blue egg on his head.
Well, teal to be specific.
joyousDream
"Don't worry, i think its ok"
impishNuminous
IN: Hatch it
joyousDream
JD: So keep it on my head
JD: I would've thought to cook it
impishNuminous
IN: In your butt
IN: I'm joking, you have like 25 secs left
joyousDream
JD: shut up

@DM
The stove is there, but blocked by the totem lathe.
joyousDream
JD: move the totem now
@DM

impishNuminous
You move the totem
IN: Okie dokie
joyousDream

joyousDream
JD: I MEANT THE TOTEM LATHE
impishNuminous

joyousDream
JD: WHY ARE THE NAMES SO SPECIFIC
impishNuminous
IN: YOU ARE THE ONE CONFUSING ME
