Even Maid SoL Goes Wrong

Excerpts from Session 5
06[16:37] * HeatherCrunch wakes up early and... tries to plan out a normal day. That notion dies as soon as she looks around her.
06[16:37] * HeatherCrunch 's jaw drops.
[16:37] <HeatherCrunch> "...Two... NAKED..."
06[16:37] * Snare_Panther sips his tea and waits for the day's chaos to begin.
06[16:38] * Snekmantha cracks her eyes open long enough to verify that someone thinks its daylight.
[16:38] <~Mistress_Millie> It doesn't take long at all.
[16:38] <Snekmantha> "BHRRRNF."
06[16:38] * Sadako_ looks at the clock "Any minute now."
06[16:38] * HeatherCrunch starts to steam from her ears. This is lewd. This is VERY lewd.
[16:38] <~Mistress_Millie> The sun is shining. Sort of. It's kinda foggy actually. This place seems to practically live in the fog.
[16:38] <Snekmantha> "... fwheeee."
[16:38] <~Mistress_Millie> The guards are bitching.
[16:38] <~Mistress_Millie> Again.
[16:38] <~Mistress_Millie> Not that they ever stop.
[16:38] <Snare_Panther> "On the bright side, we know when something's going wrong because the guards stop bitching and start dying."
[16:38] <~Mistress_Millie> And the sound of construction almost drowns out all the damn seagulls eating the roadkill from last sessions adventures.
06[16:41] * Halley_Edelnyan skates through the halls on a skateboard as she waves the American flag, the national anthem blaring from her board
[16:41] <Halley_Edelnyan> GOOD MORNING MISTREEEEEEEEEESS
06[16:42] * Snare_Panther looks up. "It has begun."
[16:42] <HeatherCrunch> "...Halley, do you know why there's a pod person in Millie's bed?"

[16:43] <Kiri-bot> Halley_Edelnyan Rolled 1d6 Dice: 2
[16:43] <Halley_Edelnyan> NOPE!
06[16:45] * Halley_Edelnyan skates into Lynn's room
[16:45] <Snekmantha> "I am not good at girl, dammit."
06[16:45] * Snekmantha kneels by the bedside.

06[16:46] * Snekmantha shakes the petite girl gently.
06[16:46] * HeatherCrunch is left alone. Fucking cat.
[16:46] <~Mistress_Millie> Meanwhile in Heather's bed, Millie groans, rolling over and tugging the bedsheets over her head.
06[16:46] * HeatherCrunch shakes her insistently. "Mistress! Mistress, we have a PROBLEM!" she hisses.
[16:47] <~Mistress_Millie> "Nhnndunwannagotoschool..."
[16:47] <Snare_Panther> "Mm. I was thinking waffles for breakfast."
01[16:47] <Sadako_> "Could we get them done in time before the chaos sets in?"
06[16:47] * HeatherCrunch starts talking in her normal speaking voice. "MISTRESS PLEASE WAKE UP!"
06[16:47] * Halley_Edelnyan skates out of Lynn's room
[16:48] <Snare_Panther> "I am quite good at waffles."
[16:48] <Halley_Edelnyan> Lynn and Yekaterina are sleeping in today nyaa! The flu from yesterday hit them really hard and their fatigued
06[16:49] * Snare_Panther sets to work on waffles.
06[16:53] * Halley_Edelnyan skates by the laundry room. The guards are knocked out by the stench and a pair of maids with red uniforms valiantly try and fight back the encroaching laundry to no avail
06[16:57] * Snekmantha sliides past the busy Snare Panther to reach the kitchen sink. She turns it on full blast, then sticks her head under it after barely remembering to remove her headdress first.
06[16:59] * Snekmantha rummages through the drawers till she finds a large salad fork.
[16:59] <Snekmantha> "Close nuff."
06[16:59] * Snekmantha combs her hair with it roughly, kind of beating it into submission as much as combing it.
[16:59] <Snare_Panther> "...what are you using my- no no, not my cutlery!"
[16:59] <Snekmantha> She gets it roughly the way she wants it and jams the headdress down over it to keep it there till it dries.
[16:59] <Snekmantha> "So'kay, we got a dishwasher."
06[17:00] * Snekmantha sticks it under the super-hot water faucet and cauterizes it with a blast of scalding liquid.
[17:00] <Snare_Panther> "It's the principle of the matter," grumps the mercenary.
06[17:00] * Snekmantha shakes it violently to dry it off.
[17:00] <Snekmantha> "Fhield... exphediunsy."
06[17:00] * Snekmantha smiles. That sounded quite professional, she thinks.
06[17:01] * Halley_Edelnyan skates into the kitchen
[17:01] <Snare_Panther> "Off the board in the kitchen, please."
[17:01] <Snare_Panther> "Too many opportunities for gross bodily harm."
06[17:01] * Halley_Edelnyan grabs a slice of toast and skates out
06[17:01] * Snekmantha gropes her way along the kitchen counter towards the coffee maker.
[17:01] <Snekmantha> "Suh. Panther. What's with Little Miss Princess?"
[17:02] <Snekmantha> "She say anything 'bout her folks, or whatever?"
06[17:04] * Halley_Edelnyan skates to the helipad and gets in a Seahawks
[17:04] <Halley_Edelnyan> !roll 1d6 skill pre flight take off
[17:04] <Kiri-bot> Halley_Edelnyan Rolled 1d6 Dice: 2
06[17:05] * Halley_Edelnyan takes off and leaves for the mainland with a list of "routine shit we need for mother base". Also Millie's credit card but that's a different issue

//I leave here to take a midterm so I'm out for most of the session

[17:05] <Snekmantha> Samantha shrugs. "You know. Roomba-chan's all, like, warmth and delight, makes things right."
[17:05] <Snekmantha> "And I'm like... white whale, holy grail."
[17:06] <HeatherCrunch> "That's what the shower is for!"
06[17:06] * Snekmantha starts the coffeemaker and hunches over to watch it percolate hungrily.

[17:17] <Snare_Panther> "One cream, one sugar. You do still take it like that, yes?" The butler brings plates of waffles over to the table, setting the tallest stack before Millie.
[17:18] <~Mistress_Millie> Millie leans back in her chair, nodding. "Y... yeah?"
[17:18] <~Mistress_Millie> "I mean usually I'd just dump some folgers into the thing and call it a day though but..."
06[17:18] * HeatherCrunch gasps.
[17:18] <HeatherCrunch> "That sounds ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING!"
[17:19] <Snare_Panther> "Bah. Your uncle is cooking, you get the good stuff."
[17:19] <~Mistress_Millie> "... hey, it got me up in the morning."
[17:19] <HeatherCrunch> "How could anyone -live- like that?"
01[17:19] <Sadako_> "You've clearly never been broke heather."
[17:19] <~Mistress_Millie> "Two scoops, four cups of water, then one spoon of sugar and some milk..."
[17:19] <~Mistress_Millie> "It did the job..." Millie pouts.
[17:20] <Snare_Panther> "At least you didn't have to brew it in a boot. That was an odd deployment."
[17:20] <Snekmantha> "... don't tell me."
01[17:20] <Sadako_> "What about using old instant ramen containers instead of cups
[17:21] <Snare_Panther> "Cut down a 155 shell casing once for a mug, but no, no ramen containers."
01[17:21] <Sadako_> "Spicy shrimp flavored coffee doesnt really work."
[17:21] <~Mistress_Millie> After a minute, the arabic girl comes out, wearing the new clothes. It's fairly obvious that it's not quite a perfect fit. She's a bit taller than Halley for one.
[17:21] <Snare_Panther> "No, I cannot imagine it does. Gunpowder's odd too."
[17:22] <~Mistress_Millie> "... I tried to avoid ramen honestly."
06[17:22] * Snekmantha coughs and keeps her eyes carefully focused on the girl's face.
[17:22] <~Mistress_Millie> "Lots of potatoes and bargain meat but I got sick of Ramen.
[17:22] <Snekmantha> "Looks good!"
[17:22] <HeatherCrunch> "So... Mistress... ... you were a poor college student, yes?"
[17:22] <Snare_Panther> "The real stuff's much better than the instant garbage."
06[17:22] * Snekmantha leans over juust enough to peer into the bathroom behind her and see what clothes she removed to don the new outfit, aside from the sheet.
[17:22] <~Mistress_Millie> Frowning a little, Snekmantha's new friend tsks a little, trying to tug the shirt down over her belly.

03[17:39] <Snekmantha> "Soooo, Sadako. It seems I was visited by the Rubber Tittay fairy last night."
[17:39] <Snekmantha> "You wouldn't happen to know anything about that, would you?"
06[17:40] * Sadako_ giggles around the waffle in her mouth "Fweehehehehe"
[17:40] <HeatherCrunch> "Didn't we get rid of those? I swear they're eggs."
06[17:40] * HeatherCrunch finally starts digging into her meal.
01[17:40] <Sadako_> "Nah not the ones on the deck."
03[17:40] * Snekmantha grins at Sadako.
[17:40] <Snekmantha> "Yeah, that's why I was asking. Just making sure I didn't wake up in a pile of something icky."
[17:41] <HeatherCrunch> "Woke up next to a second Milly. Another pod person."
06[17:41] * Snekmantha mutters something about a 'marinepile' and digs into her next waffle.
06[17:41] * Snekmantha promptly chokes on it.
[17:41] <HeatherCrunch> "Asked the cat to get rid of it first. She didn't."
[17:41] <Snekmantha> "That's - that's bad. That's baaaad."
06[17:41] * Sadako_ grins around her waffle at Crunch
[17:41] <Snekmantha> "Can you blame her, Heather? Maybe she was scared. Those things are creepy."
01[17:41] <Sadako_> "Daff fhewd."
[17:41] <Snekmantha> "We're not all hurricanes of t-OLEDO STEEL when we're ready to fight, you know."
06[17:42] * Snekmantha thumps her chest just a little too hard to clear it.
[17:42] <HeatherCrunch> "Maybe if she -said something- we could have come to SOME sort of understanding! But she just went off like nothing happened!"
[17:43] <Roomba-chan> Knowing the cat there are now dozens of strategically placed boob traps on base
[17:43] <Snekmantha> "I think I heard a chopper spooling up earlier. Mabye she went shopping, or something."
06[17:43] * Snekmantha shrugs.
06[17:43] * HeatherCrunch grumbles, "I'm -this- close to making her scrub all the toilets with her own toothbrush."
[17:43] <Roomba-chan> I'm sure you have plenty too
01[17:44] <Sadako_> "Are you kidding. I know of some the architects don't"
[17:44] <Snekmantha> "Now now, Heather. She does take initiative sometime. She went looking for crabs in the ductwork, after all. We need to get our underwear back from them eventually."
[17:44] <Snekmantha> "... even if it did result in me face-planting in a goddamn toilet."
[17:45] <Snekmantha> "... I'm starting to see your point about the toothbrush."
06[17:45] * HeatherCrunch grins an uncharacteristically wicked grin. "I mean, she's already full of crap, what difference would it make?"
06[17:45] * Snekmantha searches the ceiling thoughtfully.
[17:45] <Snekmantha> "It *would* mean giving her unfettered access to all our bathrooms."
[17:46] <Snekmantha> "God knows what she'd get up to.
[17:46] <Snare_Panther> (We might should wait for Inquis to get back.
[17:46] <Snekmantha> "Loosening the screws on access panels and shit..."
06[17:46] * Snekmantha shudders.
[17:46] <Snekmantha> "... cameras..."
[17:46] <HeatherCrunch> "You could be there to keep watch on her.
01[17:46] <Sadako_> "I don't think anyone could keep up with that cat."
[17:46] <Snekmantha> "True, that."
[17:47] <Snekmantha> "I could try, but she sure is slick."
[17:47] <HeatherCrunch> "...Maybe have her in a harness so she can't sneak off."
06[17:47] * Snekmantha raises an eyebrow.
[17:47] <Snekmantha> "A cat is fine too, eh?"
06[17:47] * Snare_Panther snorts softly.
06[17:47] * Snekmantha picks up her coffee. Siiiiiiip.
06[17:47] * HeatherCrunch turns red.
[17:47] <~Mishael> (Hokay I'm back
06[17:47] * Sadako_ coughs around her waffle.
[17:47] <HeatherCrunch> "NO, that's NOT what I was getting at! I was thinking PRACTICALLY!"
06[17:47] * Snekmantha nods.
[17:48] <Roomba-chan> For the record my sensors can't seem to track her when sneaking. Perhaps it's teleportation?
[17:48] <Snekmantha> "Of course, Heather. The Head Maid is quite pure. But the Catte is anything but."

[17:52] <Snare_Panther> "So. Misha here was on the run from an arranged marriage. Hooked up with some 'freedom fighters'- you know the sort- and wound up at the hospital, which is where you lot found her. And, just extrapolating a bit for myself, she seems to have latched on to you, Sam, as her protector."
06[17:52] * Snekmantha blinks.
[17:52] <Snekmantha> "... oh."
[17:52] <~Mistress_Millie> (You did kind of rescue her out of the street :V
[17:52] <Snare_Panther> "Indeed."
06[17:52] * HeatherCrunch giggles. "She's attracted to the strong, manly types, is she?"
06[17:52] * Snekmantha seems to be blushing slightly.
[17:53] <Snekmantha> "And her family might send people after her, so, we'll need to.. yeah."

[18:06] <Snare_Panther> "That is correct. However, it seems only prudent that Miller- or Millie- makes this choice with all the information it entails."
[18:06] <HeatherCrunch> "My parents were so disappointed. I think they're trying to have a son now."
[18:06] <~Mistress_Millie> "Uhhhhh."
[18:06] <HeatherCrunch> "...But I digress. I shouldn't... dump my baggage here."
[18:06] <~Mistress_Millie> "Uhhhhhh."
01[18:06] <Sadako_> "I think most of our parents are dissapointed in is
01[18:07] <Sadako_> in us"
[18:07] <Snare_Panther> "Speak for yourself."
[18:07] <HeatherCrunch> "Living well is the best revenge."
01[18:07] <Sadako_> "Well there's at least three of us whose parents are dissapointed."
01[18:07] <Sadako_> "So who cares."
[18:07] <HeatherCrunch> "So what if they... I'm somebody IMPORTANT!"
[18:08] <Snare_Panther> "And we're back to the yelling."
06[18:08] * HeatherCrunch covers her mouth and shrinks into her seat.
01[18:08] <Sadako_> "And? Fuck them. Like Pather says. Live well and be happy."
[18:08] <~Mishael> "madha yahduth hna?"
01[18:08] <Sadako_> "Live long and prosper."
06[18:08] * Snare_Panther speaks to Misha in Arabic.
[18:09] <HeatherCrunch> "I'll just... stop... talking..."
[18:09] <~Mistress_Millie> "I uh..."
[18:09] <~Mistress_Millie> "I'm gonna need to think."
06[18:09] * HeatherCrunch gets another order of food.
[18:09] <~Mistress_Millie> "... and some more coffee. Please."
[18:09] <Snakemantha> "Sure."
06[18:09] * HeatherCrunch gets Millie some coffee first.
01[18:09] <Sadako_> "Mine are dissapointed that I'm a shut in who draws smut."
06[18:09] * Snakemantha jerks back as Heather rushes past.
06[18:09] * Snakemantha wisely sits down again.
01[18:09] <Sadako_> "It honeslty doesn't matter."
[18:10] <Snakemantha> "Better a good smut artist than a mediocre commercial artist," Samantha says with authority as she slathers jelly on her waffles.
[18:10] <~Mistress_Millie> "... my parent's haven't talked to me since I took Uncle Kaz up on his offer."
[18:11] <Snakemantha> "... offer?"
[18:11] <~Mistress_Millie> "... I uh, sorta work for him now. Here."
[18:11] <~Mistress_Millie> "I'm technically supposed to be running the place?"
06[18:11] * Kiri-bot lewd-oils Mistress_Millie!
06[18:11] * ~Mistress_Millie shrugs "I think he was just trying to be nice in his own way. Set me up since the scholarships ran out and all..."
[18:11] <Snakemantha> "So this isn't just a place to hide you away from all the people gunning for your head on a platter?"
01[18:12] <Sadako_> "Not that it stops the universe from trying."
[18:12] <Snakemantha> "Oh. Okay. So, this rig actually possibly does indeed drill for oil."
01[18:12] <Sadako_> 'Does it? I thought it was a chaos magnet."
[18:13] <~Mistress_Millie> "Well it's supposed to be an off shore refinery and warehouse..."
01[18:13] <Sadako_> "Making the world better by attracting all sorts of random shit."
06[18:13] * Snare_Panther keeps conversing with Misha.
[18:13] <~Mistress_Millie> "I mean the main drilling platform is detached.
[18:13] <Snakemantha> "Honestly, can any of us bitch? The ad in Maids Monthly said 'combat experience preferred' in bold font."

//I return. This is honestly the *quietest* session we've had
[18:53] <Halley_Edelnyan> A Seahawk appears on the horizon, circling as it waits for clearance to land
[18:54] <~Mistress_Millie> From her perch by the radio mast, Millie looks up briefly, before drifting back to thoughts at hand.
[18:54] <Halley_Edelnyan> The catte returns, a giant cargo crate in tow beneath her chopper
06[18:54] * HeatherCrunch looks outside and sighs.
[18:54] <~Mistress_Millie> Well Snekmantha
[18:55] <HeatherCrunch> "Great. Just great."
06[18:55] * Halley_Edelnyan turns up the Psychological Suppression Attachment
[18:55] <~Mistress_Millie> You start to sneak up on the guards... who are having a discussion.
[18:55] <~Mistress_Millie> "So... you hear about that girl?"
[18:55] <Halley_Edelnyan> https://youtu.be/thIVtEOtlWM MUSIC QUITE RELATED
[18:55] <~Mistress_Millie> "Which one?"
[18:55] <Snekmantha> !
[18:55] <~Mistress_Millie> "The brown one dingus."
[18:55] <~Mistress_Millie> "The one those crazy maids picked up."
[18:55] <~Mistress_Millie> "... what about her?"
[18:55] <~Mistress_Millie> "Well I was listenin to the radio and they're saying something about Irakistan..."
[18:55] <~Mistress_Millie> "... hmm?"
[18:56] <~Mistress_Millie> "Yeah, apparently they've mobilized a full search for somebody."
[18:56] <~Mistress_Millie> "Rumor is that the eldest daughter of the Shah disappeared recently."
[18:56] <~Mistress_Millie> "So what... you think it's her?"
[18:56] <~Mistress_Millie> "Well..."
[18:56] <~Mistress_Millie> "Naaaaahhh."
[18:56] <~Mistress_Millie> "Couldn't be."
[18:56] <~Mistress_Millie> "Yeah, but..."
06[18:57] * Snekmantha pauses in her sneekibreeki approach.
[18:57] <~Mistress_Millie> "C'mon, let's get going."
[18:57] <Snekmantha> She rubs her hand against her pistol with a grimace.
[18:57] <~Mistress_Millie> "Yeah, alright."
[18:57] <Snekmantha> Reluctantly, she picks up the air horn again.
06[18:57] * Snekmantha moves in for the kill!
[18:58] <~Mistress_Millie> The guards seem unaware, busy chatting as they were.
[18:58] <HeatherCrunch> "I still don't understand."
[18:58] <HeatherCrunch> "Anyway, what's she doing right now?"
06[18:58] * Snekmantha senses an oppertunity... for a KNIFE KILL.
[18:58] <Snekmantha> She puts away the air horn and draws the true weapon.
[18:58] <Snekmantha> Closer.... closer....
[18:59] <~Mistress_Millie> "... you hear that?"
06[18:59] * Halley_Edelnyan touches her cargo down near the dormitories and signals the guards to start unloading. A few moments later, and the crane from session 2 swings by, taking a few boxes up to Halley's room, while the guards move other supplies
[18:59] <~Mistress_Millie> "What?'
[18:59] <~Mistress_Millie> "... nothin."
06[18:59] * Snekmantha hastily tries to hide behind a random oil drum.
[18:59] <~Mistress_Millie> "Just probably the maids again."
[18:59] <Snekmantha> Samantha glowers. Fine. But they'll never expect THIS.
06[18:59] * Snekmantha pops out from the oil drums!
[18:59] <Snekmantha> "FHWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!"
[19:00] <~Mistress_Millie> "THE HELL WAS THAT!"
06[19:00] * Snekmantha dives for cover!
06[19:00] * Snekmantha attempts a rapid exfil back to where Misha's watching from the upper deck.
[19:01] <~Mistress_Millie> The guards shoulder their rifles, scanning the area.
06[19:01] * Halley_Edelnyan touches down at the helipad and starts texting Samantha and Roomba-chan as she goes through the post flight checks and shuts down the chopper.
[19:01] <~Mistress_Millie> "... sounded like one of those stupid novelty toys."
06[19:01] * Snekmantha freezes as her apron begins to buzz.
[19:02] <Halley_Edelnyan> "Samnyaantha~ Roomba-chan~ come down and meet me at the motor pool together when you have a free moment~"
[19:04] <HeatherCrunch> "What is it, Roomba-chan?"
06[19:05] * Snekmantha snatches for her phone quickly, but the goddamn catte has already messaged her again!
[19:05] <Snekmantha> Bzzzzz~
06[19:06] * Halley_Edelnyan climbs out of the chopper, still dressed in her outfit from last night, and shakes out her hair and begins issuing orders to the helipad crew
[19:06] <~Mistress_Millie> "... okay now I know I'm not hearing things..."
[19:06] <~Mistress_Millie> 'You heard it to?"
[19:06] <Snekmantha> "Fuck it."
[19:06] <~Mistress_Millie> The guards turn, leveling their guns at the barrel.
06[19:06] * Snekmantha snatches up the nearest oil drum - why are these things left lying around, anyway?
[19:06] <Snekmantha> "DONKEY KONG, MOTHERFUCKERS!"
06[19:06] * ~Mishael stands up behind the guards, airhorn in hand.
[19:07] <Halley_Edelnyan> "Alright nyaa! I need you to move these sandbags around to criticanyan parts of the base! The weather has been unusually dramatic and rainyaa the last few weeks so we're taking precautionyans now!"
06[19:08] * Roomba-chan heads out to see what Halley has in store for us
06[19:09] * ~Mishael lays on the airhorn as Snekmantha lifts the barrel, letting out a cacophanous "BLAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAR"
[19:10] <Halley_Edelnyan> "As for nyan! Move all this alcohol and martinyani mix to the cellars! And these clothes have to be moved up to the mistress's room, this crate of clothing to Samnyanthas, and this one as well for that Arabian girl, please and thank you~"
[19:10] <~Mistress_Millie> "JESUS CHRIST!" One of the guards drops his rifle, clutching at his ears.
06[19:11] * Snekmantha hurls the barrel at them, sending it clattering down the narrow catwalk!
06[19:11] * Kiri-bot lewd-oils Snekmantha!
06[19:11] * Roomba-chan records Sam's "training" from the surveillance cams for later review
[19:11] <Snekmantha> "JUMP LIKE A BUNNY AAHAHAHAHAHAH"
06[19:11] * Halley_Edelnyan continues to direct the guards, unloading a large roll of det cord, a large crate of MREs, a fresh set of coffee beans, and other supplies like cleaning solutions and groceries
06[19:11] * ~Mishael tosses herself to one side with a small scream.
06[19:11] * Halley_Edelnyan grabs a guard
[19:13] <Halley_Edelnyan> Congratulations nyaa! You've been voluntold! Take this large bag of detergent and a fire hose and do the laundry because Halley is too lazy-er, BUSY, and occupied to do so nyaa!
[19:14] <~Mistress_Millie> "But I have to guard the latrines!"
[19:14] <Halley_Edelnyan> It's either this nyaa, or you're cleaning the latrines. With your face. In the pipes. Now take care~
[19:15] <Roomba-chan> Any reason for me to be at a resupply Halley? Or do you have something for me?
06[19:15] * Snekmantha quirks an eyebrow as she watches the aftermath of her handiwork. "Misha?"
06[19:15] * Halley_Edelnyan grabs a bag of electronics out of the chopper
[19:15] <Halley_Edelnyan> Be right there Roomba-chan!
06[19:15] * ~Mishael lets out a little groan, standing up out of a box full of little rubber boobies.
06[19:16] * Halley_Edelnyan skips off to the motor pool, having successfully completed maid chores without blowing up everything in her vicinity
Soon:
06[19:20] * Halley_Edelnyan bursts through a vent and appear in the motor pool and hugs Roomba-chan
[19:20] <Halley_Edelnyan> Roomba-chan~
06[19:20] * Roomba-chan squeeks
06[19:21] * ~Mishael shrugs, holding out her hand to Snekmantha.
06[19:21] * Snekmantha pauses awkwardly, then lets Misha hold her hand all the way to the motor pool.
[19:21] <Halley_Edelnyan> Alright Roomba-chan! I need you to interface with the tank I bought a few days back! We need to get you all calibrated up so you can pilot it remotely!
[19:21] <Roomba-chan> "Ah hello!" Hugging halley back
[19:21] <Roomba-chan> Calibrated?
[19:22] <Halley_Edelnyan> Mhm! Halley bought the last bits she needed to let you sync up with our tank!
[19:22] <HeatherCrunch> "Just... trying not to explode when... -things- keep happening."
06[19:22] * Snekmantha pauses just outside the motor pool's double doors.
[19:23] <Snekmantha> "If they see you holding my hand, they might, uh, it's the catte, so-"
06[19:23] * Snekmantha shakes her hand gently, trying to dislodge it.
[19:23] <Halley_Edelnyan> Give it a try Roomba-chan! Just touch the tank and let your mind enter it!
[19:23] <Roomba-chan> Hmm what's the public key for it? Do you have mine?
[19:23] <Roomba-chan> Oh, NFC. Nice touch
06[19:24] * Halley_Edelnyan takes out a physical key with Roomba-chans public key engraved on it
06[19:24] * Roomba-chan closes her eyes and touches it
[19:24] <Halley_Edelnyan> Of course I do nyaa!
[19:24] <Snekmantha> "... okay. Just gotta take the catte by the ears, I guess."
06[19:24] * Snekmantha enters the motor pool.
06[19:24] * Kiri-bot lewd-oils HeatherCrunch!
[19:25] <Snekmantha> "Halley? I'm here. What madness hath you wrought this time?"
[19:25] <Halley_Edelnyan> The console lights up as the tank quickly starts configuring to Roomba-chan's Api!
[19:25] <Halley_Edelnyan> Ah!
06[19:25] * Halley_Edelnyan runs over to Samnyantha and drags her to the tank
[19:25] <Halley_Edelnyan> Samnyantha! I've decided a name for the tank!
[19:26] <Halley_Edelnyan> See its main gun?
[19:26] <Halley_Edelnyan> It's like a long neck of an animal
[19:26] <Snekmantha> "..."
[19:26] <Halley_Edelnyan> What kind of animal has a long neck?
[19:26] <Snekmantha> "... a brontasaur."
[19:26] <Snekmantha> "... a stork?"
[19:26] <Snekmantha> "... a giraffe."
06[19:26] * Roomba-chan grins like a maniac. "This. So this is what it feels like to be powerful. I could get used to this."
06[19:26] * Snekmantha muses.
[19:26] <Halley_Edelnyan> ... Close but a crane!
[19:26] <Snekmantha> "... oh."
[19:27] <Snekmantha> "Wait, a crane's a lifty machine thing, not an animal."
06[19:27] * Halley_Edelnyan slaps a name template onto the tank
[19:27] <Snekmantha> "Don't try to shine me on again!"
[19:27] <Halley_Edelnyan> I call it, the "Shoukaku!"
06[19:27] * Snekmantha blinks.
[19:27] <Snekmantha> "Isn't that some NTR doujin?"
[19:27] <Snekmantha> "Halley, honestly. I'm shocked at you."
[19:27] <Snekmantha> "Just... shocked."
06[19:28] * Snekmantha does not look very shocked.
[19:28] <Halley_Edelnyan> Roomba-chan~
[19:28] <Halley_Edelnyan> Everything go okay with the tank? Try speaking to us over the speaker!
06[19:28] * Roomba-chan opens her eyes. She seems to be over heating a
[19:28] <Roomba-chan> But
[19:29] <Roomba-chan> "Test test 123. Loudspeaker system online"
06[19:29] * Snekmantha peers inside the tank, then takes a step back and evaluates the entire thing.
[19:29] <Halley_Edelnyan> Hm... It'll take some time to adjust but it looks like it works nyaa!
[19:29] <Snekmantha> "Good job, Halley. You found the one sentient AI in a thousand miles without the means for mayhem and death built in and quickly remedied that problem."
[19:29] <Halley_Edelnyan> Hop out whenever Roomba-chan!
06[19:30] * Halley_Edelnyan thumbs up Samnyantha
06[19:30] * Snekmantha is completely stonefaced.
[19:30] <Halley_Edelnyan> You know I got you senpai!
[19:31] <Roomba-chan> (Normally) but it's so comphy! I'm sure I can handle keeping it on a idle thread
06[19:31] * ~Mishael sits on an ammo crate, glancing around curiously.
[19:31] <Snekmantha> "Wow. Neat. So neat. Isn't that neat, Halley?"
[19:32] <Halley_Edelnyan> Roomba-chan! Before you have to shut down for the night, can you give Halley-nyan access to the base's water control system? There's a lot of laundry to do and Halley-nyan has almost no outfits left!
06[19:32] * Snekmantha glances sidelong at Halley.
[19:33] <Snekmantha> "Part of me wants to stop you."
[19:33] <Snekmantha> "And part of me wants to see what the hell you come up with next."
[19:33] <Halley_Edelfelt> You want to help Samnyantha?
[19:33] <Snekmantha> "I'm... otherwise engaged at the moment."
[19:33] <Halley_Edelfelt> Okay!
06[19:33] * Snekmantha tilts her head at Misha.
[19:34] <Snekmantha> "Oh, Roomba-chan? This rig is run by a server, right?"
[19:34] <Snekmantha> "If you hosted a good translation program on it, could I access it from my smartphone, on the wifi?"
[19:35] <Snekmantha> "Google Translate can't handle phonetics and stuff like that, so..."
[19:35] <Roomba-chan> (Slightly giddy) water control? Sure yeah that's fine
[19:35] <HeatherCrunch> (Correct
[19:35] <Halley_Edelfelt> Thanks Roomba-chan~ Halley-nyan will make sure to set up more access points in the base for you!
06[19:37] * Halley_Edelfelt rolls up her sleeve and starts typing away on the hologram keyboard, logging onto Mother Base's water control system
[19:37] <Roomba-chan> You want me to set up a translation system for you Sam? Sure I can do that. Won't be very good though
