Jace: Enter

<Lazy> -BEGIN-
<striderPersona> SP: K, game is loaded
<striderPersona> SP: What now
<subsonicPunch> SP: Mine too
<subsonicPunch> SP: you run it as the client
<subsonicPunch> SP: I'll be the server
<striderPersona> SP: Right
<striderPersona> You do so
<Lazy> It takes a minute, but you both manage to connect to each other. Diane can now see Jace's bunker.
<striderPersona> SP: Progress?
<subsonicPunch> SP: yep
<subsonicPunch> Diane attempts to poke Jace with the cursor
<Lazy> Jace: You have been poked by a floating cursor
<striderPersona> SP: Hey, what gives?
<subsonicPunch> SP: :P
<striderPersona> SP: First of all, rude.
* subsonicPunch tries to move the camera to the basement
<striderPersona> SP: Either way, time to move on
<Lazy> Diane: The basement is empty. It looks like you can fit all the machines there.
<subsonicPunch> She goes through the machine list, placing all of the free ones down
<subsonicPunch> Then, she picks the card, and begins to poke Jace with it
* striderPersona snatches the card out of the air
<striderPersona> SP: Thanks.
<striderPersona> SP: What now
<subsonicPunch> SP: open the one with the wheel
<subsonicPunch> SP: Put something in the flashy thing
<subsonicPunch> SP: do something with the card and the cylinders that come out
<subsonicPunch> SP: try not to die
<striderPersona> SP: Sure, whatever. I'm on it.
<striderPersona> "Todd, can you give me a hand? This thing needs pried open."
<Lazy> Todd: "What thing?"
<striderPersona> You point to the thing with the wheel
<striderPersona> "That thing"
<Lazy> Todd: "What is that?"
<striderPersona> "No idea. But it needs to be opened."
<Lazy> Todd: "How?"
* striderPersona readies to open the Alchemeter with Todd's help
<striderPersona> "Pry off the lid!
* striderPersona is an idiot and meant the cruxtruder
<Lazy> Roll for strength
<striderPersona> !roll 1d20-1
<Kaiserbot[Dice]> rolled 1d20-1 --> [ 1d20=17 ] | {16}
<striderPersona> !roll 1d20-1
<Kaiserbot[Dice]> rolled 1d20-1 --> [ 1d20=6 ] | {5}
<striderPersona> 16
<Lazy> Jace: With a bit of struggling, the lid flies off in a flash of light. Out of it floats a brilliant green orb, along with a few green dowels.
<striderPersona> SP: Huh.
<striderPersona> SP: ... Thought it would be red or something.
<striderPersona> SP: Oh well.
<Lazy> Todd: "Woah... what is that?"
* striderPersona looks around for what to throw into the kernel
<striderPersona> "Whatever it is"
<striderPersona> "Do NOT touch it. Bad news."
<Lazy> Todd: "Uh... okay. Is it a bomb or something?"
<subsonicPunch> SP: it's a nice green at least
<striderPersona> SP: Yeah.
<striderPersona> SP: ... It's pretty cool.
<striderPersona> SP: Funnily enough... It's the same as my eye color.
<striderPersona> SP: Anyways.
<Lazy> Todd: "So, what do the other machines do?"
<subsonicPunch> SP: nice :)
<striderPersona> "Let's find out."
* striderPersona takes a dowel to the totem lathe
<Lazy> Jace: There's a space where a dowel would fit, along with a slot next to it
<Lazy> Todd: "Uh, Jace? There's a timer on this tube machine. It says '6:02'"
<subsonicPunch> SP: You have to beat that timer
<striderPersona> SP: Noted.
* striderPersona carves the dowel after placing it in.
<subsonicPunch> SP: You wont get a second chance if you dont
<striderPersona> "Yeah, let's just get this over with."
<Lazy> Jace: The dowel turns into some strange totem thing.
<striderPersona> SP: Alchemeter time?
<striderPersona> SP: That is what that pos is called, right
<Lazy> Jace: While you are distracted, the orb floats up the stairs and into the living area. It's getting really close to all your cool stuff.
<striderPersona> SP: Sh*t!
<striderPersona> SP: Censored? Wtf?
<striderPersona> SP: I don't care
<subsonicPunch> SP: this is the internet you can say shit Jace
<striderPersona> SP: Brb tryiong to save cool stuff
<subsonicPunch> SP: :P
<striderPersona> SP: THAT JUST HAPPENED ID DUNNO OKAY
<subsonicPunch> SP: I promise I still love you
* striderPersona runs up to see what the kernel is up to
<subsonicPunch> SP: even if you self censor your curse words
<striderPersona> SP: Slip of the finger ffs
<subsonicPunch> SP: all the way up to shift-8
<subsonicPunch> SP: yep
<striderPersona> SP: Tbh
<striderPersona> SP: That might be an early joke this year
<Lazy> Jace: A nearby meteor strikes near your bunker, shaking everything. The supercomputer your bro has been working on is accidentally knocked into the orb.
<striderPersona> SP: Freaking Bro probably censoring me
<striderPersona> SP: F***ing Bro
<striderPersona> SP: WHAT THE F***
<striderPersona> SP: I hate him so much.
<striderPersona> "..."
<striderPersona> "I am dead."
<Lazy> Jace: The computer is consumed by the orb. It takes the form of a computer monitor.
<striderPersona> "Shit."
<striderPersona> "Todd... This could get bad."
<Lazy> Todd: "The timer says, like, 4:30 minutes. You better hurry, I don't think we'll want to be here when it reaches 0!"
<striderPersona> "I KNOW!"
<Lazy> Todd: "SO HURRY UP!"
* striderPersona takes the carved lathe to the alchemeter and does the thing with the prepunched card
<Lazy> Jace: The alchemiter's arm scans the totem, and in another flash of light a green department store shelf appears on the alchemiter, before disappearing and leaving a flashlight and batteries.
* striderPersona puts the batteries in the flashlight and turns it on
<Lazy> Jace: White light floods the perimeter of your bunker and it continuously rumbles. Eventually, the light and rumbling cease.
<Lazy> Welcome to the Land of Corruption and Neon!
