[00:00:38] [SPEAKER_18]: Hi and welcome to the... I almost said the role-playing exchange.
[00:00:42] [SPEAKER_20]: I believe you did that the last time we tried starting this recording as well.
[00:00:46] [SPEAKER_18]: It's me.
[00:00:46] [SPEAKER_18]: Yeah, it's infectious.
[00:00:48] [SPEAKER_20]: Way to go, Adam.
[00:00:50] [SPEAKER_18]: Sorry.
[00:00:50] [SPEAKER_18]: Hi and welcome again to One Less Die, a Coriolis actual play podcast.
[00:00:56] [SPEAKER_18]: We are... we have returned after several weeks to a Coriolis one shot run by RPX's
[00:01:04] [SPEAKER_18]: Adam.
[00:01:05] [SPEAKER_20]: Is it a Tech of the Bay two shot, depending on how this episode split up?
[00:01:09] [SPEAKER_18]: Yeah, we'll see.
[00:01:10] [SPEAKER_18]: It's a one shot and it's like... it's a standalone scenario.
[00:01:15] [SPEAKER_18]: Yeah.
[00:01:17] [SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, maybe you're coming to us from an intermission that depends on the length of what we record
[00:01:22] [SPEAKER_11]: tonight is.
[00:01:23] [SPEAKER_11]: So either way, you'll figure it out.
[00:01:26] [SPEAKER_11]: I'm sure you will.
[00:01:27] [SPEAKER_11]: Anyway, hey, this is Adam.
[00:01:28] [SPEAKER_11]: And I am going to go ahead and jump into the scenario that Chris said happened two weeks
[00:01:34] [SPEAKER_11]: ago, but Chris is wrong.
[00:01:36] [SPEAKER_11]: When we played it, it was nearly a month ago today.
[00:01:39] [SPEAKER_11]: Oh, yeah.
[00:01:40] [SPEAKER_11]: That's what I thought.
[00:01:40] [SPEAKER_11]: Today is April 19th.
[00:01:41] [SPEAKER_18]: I think a couple of weeks.
[00:01:42] [SPEAKER_18]: That could have been more than two.
[00:01:43] [SPEAKER_11]: Three days from being a month, Chris.
[00:01:46] [SPEAKER_20]: Okay.
[00:01:47] [SPEAKER_18]: So I apologize.
[00:01:48] [SPEAKER_20]: He has made up a number of weeks.
[00:01:50] [SPEAKER_20]: It could have been a year ago.
[00:01:51] [SPEAKER_20]: It's still a number of weeks.
[00:01:53] [SPEAKER_18]: For me, a couple usually means more than like two or two plus.
[00:01:58] [SPEAKER_04]: He does that wrong.
[00:02:00] [SPEAKER_04]: A couple means two.
[00:02:01] [SPEAKER_04]: Several means three or more.
[00:02:03] [SPEAKER_04]: A few means three or more.
[00:02:06] [SPEAKER_04]: Several means seven and seven and up.
[00:02:08] [SPEAKER_04]: Hey, this is not important though.
[00:02:10] [SPEAKER_11]: It could be a polyamorous couple, but we're going to move right ahead.
[00:02:13] [SPEAKER_11]: So basically guys, we're kind of jumping into this little like loosey-goosey for
[00:02:20] [SPEAKER_11]: one in both cases that like we were tasked to not test it like, hey, we play Coral
[00:02:25] [SPEAKER_11]: Well, it's when I offered it the first time.
[00:02:27] [SPEAKER_11]: The game fell through.
[00:02:29] [SPEAKER_11]: And then we showed up tonight to play a game and then the game fell through.
[00:02:32] [SPEAKER_11]: So I had blown the dust off of my notes that I took a long time ago and we're just going
[00:02:37] [SPEAKER_11]: to jump back into it.
[00:02:38] [SPEAKER_11]: Now one of our players too, while we're preface and stuff fell asleep at one point
[00:02:43] [SPEAKER_11]: and we have no idea which way.
[00:02:45] [SPEAKER_11]: So like there's going to be some continuity stuff here, but you'll figure it out.
[00:02:50] [SPEAKER_11]: It's fine.
[00:02:50] [SPEAKER_20]: That's Chris's problem.
[00:02:52] [SPEAKER_11]: When we last left off, you were basically contacted by the bar and government to look
[00:02:57] [SPEAKER_11]: up a lost researcher and their spacecraft.
[00:03:01] [SPEAKER_11]: You were just passing through the galaxy and you get the phone call.
[00:03:06] [SPEAKER_11]: The money was really too good to pass up because the main mechanic of the reason
[00:03:13] [SPEAKER_11]: you do these jobs is you're making payments on your spaceship to begin with.
[00:03:16] [SPEAKER_11]: So there's, you know, a financial need to continue for.
[00:03:19] [SPEAKER_11]: So you all took up the job.
[00:03:21] [SPEAKER_11]: And when you were going through deep space and you went to the coordinates of the
[00:03:27] [SPEAKER_11]: ship's last known placing, you came across a ancient space station that had this weird
[00:03:38] [SPEAKER_11]: plant life growth like surrounding it.
[00:03:41] [SPEAKER_11]: And even like this detritus kind of floating off of it and all that, which is, you
[00:03:45] [SPEAKER_11]: know, nothing really grows in space.
[00:03:47] [SPEAKER_11]: So the fact that there's basically a rose boost springing up out of a derelict
[00:03:52] [SPEAKER_11]: space station is kind of disconcerting.
[00:03:55] [SPEAKER_11]: You did manage to find a place that was pretty close to the docks.
[00:04:01] [SPEAKER_11]: I mean, to dock, it wasn't like overgrown and all that.
[00:04:04] [SPEAKER_11]: And you've also noticed that the spacecraft that you were looking for is here.
[00:04:09] [SPEAKER_11]: Now, to remind you all, you're paid for the return of the ship and you're
[00:04:14] [SPEAKER_11]: paid for the return of the professor.
[00:04:17] [SPEAKER_11]: Those are the main things that you are going to.
[00:04:19] [SPEAKER_11]: So upon making a few checks and me offering darkness points to people many
[00:04:25] [SPEAKER_11]: times, we went ahead and docked and you have made it into like the airlock and
[00:04:32] [SPEAKER_11]: have made it down the corridor and it's overgrown everywhere.
[00:04:38] [SPEAKER_11]: And when we last left off and kind of referencing the map that people will
[00:04:42] [SPEAKER_11]: not be able to see because this is not a video podcast.
[00:04:46] [SPEAKER_11]: But if you look at the map that was reposted, you're pretty much around.
[00:04:50] [SPEAKER_11]: You we stopped as you made it to section four there.
[00:04:55] [SPEAKER_11]: This is a part of the ship.
[00:04:57] [SPEAKER_11]: It looks like pretty tore up.
[00:04:59] [SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, pretty tore up.
[00:05:01] [SPEAKER_11]: It's like there was a whole breach there.
[00:05:03] [SPEAKER_11]: Half of it's blown off, which is a hell of a whole breach.
[00:05:07] [SPEAKER_11]: But I think that do you think that I should reach?
[00:05:11] [SPEAKER_11]: I by breach, you can look at the picture of it and see that half of it's gone.
[00:05:15] [SPEAKER_18]: Yeah, like I assume that this this station by looks of this map.
[00:05:20] [SPEAKER_18]: It's pretty big, right?
[00:05:21] [SPEAKER_11]: Yeah.
[00:05:21] [SPEAKER_11]: And I kind of look at this as being more of a top down kind of image of the map.
[00:05:26] [SPEAKER_11]: And it's still got electric, a very minimum functions running.
[00:05:32] [SPEAKER_11]: The air is breathable, but you bunch of wooshers aren't when to take
[00:05:34] [SPEAKER_11]: off your mask and breathe there.
[00:05:37] [SPEAKER_11]: What I mean, that those are decisions that you're making.
[00:05:39] [SPEAKER_18]: And I'm not breathing in that weird space pollen.
[00:05:42] [SPEAKER_18]: Yes, four zero. OK, OK.
[00:05:44] [SPEAKER_11]: That's fine. You may have space hour juice.
[00:05:46] [SPEAKER_11]: That's a good it's a good safe play there.
[00:05:49] [SPEAKER_11]: But you have noticed things that I think that you have noticed says
[00:05:55] [SPEAKER_11]: like there is gravity on the station and how I envision the station
[00:06:01] [SPEAKER_11]: is kind of flat on top.
[00:06:02] [SPEAKER_11]: You got the fat area like you're seeing here.
[00:06:04] [SPEAKER_11]: And then you have like more cylindrical going down to where it's
[00:06:08] [SPEAKER_11]: almost like a top spinning.
[00:06:12] [SPEAKER_18]: Yeah, the floating floating city in the on Bespin.
[00:06:15] [SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, maybe if I were going to use a redneck description is like a like a
[00:06:19] [SPEAKER_11]: floating bobber, so to speak.
[00:06:22] [SPEAKER_11]: OK.
[00:06:23] [SPEAKER_11]: And it is doing a rotation and periodically
[00:06:29] [SPEAKER_11]: through the whole breach and whatnot.
[00:06:32] [SPEAKER_11]: You know, the red the red light from the nearby star will shine in on the area.
[00:06:38] [SPEAKER_11]: So as we left off, you always made it to the
[00:06:44] [SPEAKER_11]: habitat, the living quarters and basically
[00:06:49] [SPEAKER_11]: everything kind of cordon off.
[00:06:51] [SPEAKER_11]: And that's the thing.
[00:06:51] [SPEAKER_11]: That's the thing about space stations in general folks is there was like a
[00:06:54] [SPEAKER_11]: modular kind of setup so you can.
[00:06:58] [SPEAKER_11]: And unfortunately, if things get bad, you can like seal it off and contain
[00:07:04] [SPEAKER_11]: the rest of the ship so that the whole place isn't lost and whatnot.
[00:07:08] [SPEAKER_11]: So you're kind of peering through the window into this area and you're just
[00:07:12] [SPEAKER_11]: seeing just.
[00:07:15] [SPEAKER_11]: I kind of in my head and I may be changing this from the original description,
[00:07:19] [SPEAKER_11]: but you're kind of looking at almost like a what you know, like what our
[00:07:25] [SPEAKER_11]: modern mindset would think of like a prison setup, just like living quarters
[00:07:30] [SPEAKER_11]: stacked on top of living quarters and like an open kind of commons are in the
[00:07:34] [SPEAKER_11]: bottom.
[00:07:35] [SPEAKER_11]: And the part that looks like it's been blown off, you like even in that part
[00:07:39] [SPEAKER_11]: of the station, you can see where there were at one point structures and
[00:07:44] [SPEAKER_11]: like a setup like you think it was like complimentary on both sides,
[00:07:48] [SPEAKER_11]: like the living quarters.
[00:07:49] [SPEAKER_18]: Is it almost like a certain Hyatt Hotel that was in is in Indian
[00:07:55] [SPEAKER_18]: apolis?
[00:07:56] [SPEAKER_11]: A Hyatt Hotel in Indianapolis said he told me he would appreciate it if I
[00:08:00] [SPEAKER_11]: did not jump when the elevator was going up or down.
[00:08:04] [SPEAKER_16]: Well, when your 19 floors up.
[00:08:09] [SPEAKER_16]: Is it a tank or something?
[00:08:11] [SPEAKER_18]: It there were some times when like that elevator like groaned uneasily because
[00:08:17] [SPEAKER_18]: of how many people were coming in and out of that, that hotel.
[00:08:21] [SPEAKER_11]: But I will walk backwards in the hell and stir it God the entire way.
[00:08:25] [SPEAKER_11]: I said backwards Chris, it's okay.
[00:08:28] [SPEAKER_18]: But yeah, like is it like that kind of like open like that?
[00:08:30] [SPEAKER_18]: Yeah.
[00:08:31] [SPEAKER_18]: Yeah.
[00:08:31] [SPEAKER_11]: So it's a very open area and I mean you could you have your spacesuits
[00:08:37] [SPEAKER_11]: and all but I mean you could go in there.
[00:08:39] [SPEAKER_11]: But I mean, I can say that part of it's exposed.
[00:08:43] [SPEAKER_18]: Are we seeing any bodies at all?
[00:08:46] [SPEAKER_11]: Like floating or drifting or no, you would think that what's
[00:08:50] [SPEAKER_11]: the explosive decompression of the side being blown out to the vacuum.
[00:08:55] [SPEAKER_11]: So if there's stuff inside, I mean, I don't know how this thing has been up
[00:09:00] [SPEAKER_11]: here for I think we established their research check a while back that
[00:09:04] [SPEAKER_11]: this place had been at this station has been for a couple maybe maybe 200
[00:09:09] [SPEAKER_11]: years I'd have to go screw back up but it's been it's been a while.
[00:09:16] [SPEAKER_18]: So this is pre or like post portal war?
[00:09:21] [SPEAKER_11]: This is post.
[00:09:22] [SPEAKER_18]: Okay.
[00:09:23] [SPEAKER_11]: So this is this area of the barn space like that they did very well during
[00:09:29] [SPEAKER_11]: the portal worlds and then that like it didn't really go over but toward
[00:09:33] [SPEAKER_11]: the end of it, the worst built over into this system.
[00:09:38] [SPEAKER_11]: And the station was reported lost through all the records that you guys
[00:09:44] [SPEAKER_11]: have been able to scour on it from conflict.
[00:09:48] [SPEAKER_18]: Didn't we also find out like there this might have been a research
[00:09:51] [SPEAKER_18]: facility for something like bio weapons or something?
[00:09:54] [SPEAKER_11]: It was a research facility.
[00:09:55] [SPEAKER_11]: I don't know about bio weapons.
[00:09:57] [SPEAKER_11]: Okay.
[00:09:57] [SPEAKER_11]: You know that they were working on something.
[00:10:00] [SPEAKER_18]: Yeah, it might have been something that we speculated
[00:10:01] [SPEAKER_18]: like what the plant life is or something.
[00:10:03] [SPEAKER_18]: It's kind of weird bio weapon.
[00:10:05] [SPEAKER_20]: So I have a question.
[00:10:07] [SPEAKER_20]: Yeah, regards to the ship that we're here to potentially collect.
[00:10:11] [SPEAKER_20]: Is that over in this area or are we just walking away from it?
[00:10:16] [SPEAKER_20]: Where is it?
[00:10:17] [SPEAKER_18]: We're walking toward it.
[00:10:18] [SPEAKER_18]: Like I think we're trying to get across to the other side to get it.
[00:10:21] [SPEAKER_11]: I got the map.
[00:10:22] [SPEAKER_11]: I think yeah, you're it's.
[00:10:24] [SPEAKER_11]: Of course, it's also got growth on it as well.
[00:10:27] [SPEAKER_11]: But I'm looking trying to go through here because look at the map.
[00:10:31] [SPEAKER_11]: This limit doesn't have the key included there though.
[00:10:33] [SPEAKER_11]: But basically what you're, you're standing at point four living quarters.
[00:10:39] [SPEAKER_11]: And there were two airlocks available.
[00:10:43] [SPEAKER_11]: It looks like they're at two and they are at seven.
[00:10:52] [SPEAKER_11]: So I can't remember which one we picked, but narratively was go ahead
[00:10:57] [SPEAKER_11]: and say that you all docked at two and then you're walking over and
[00:11:03] [SPEAKER_11]: you're going to, you could make it down to area seven.
[00:11:06] [SPEAKER_11]: I will even say because there was a successful row here.
[00:11:10] [SPEAKER_11]: I will even say you've got a rudimentary kind of map of the place.
[00:11:15] [SPEAKER_20]: I seem to recall us starting at seven and going north on the map.
[00:11:19] [SPEAKER_11]: Well, maybe I said I will go with that as well.
[00:11:22] [SPEAKER_11]: Well, I mean two would be even closer.
[00:11:24] [SPEAKER_11]: Yeah.
[00:11:26] [SPEAKER_18]: Yes.
[00:11:26] [SPEAKER_18]: I think this is like on our way there.
[00:11:27] [SPEAKER_18]: We stopped by this like area because it was.
[00:11:31] [SPEAKER_18]: It was in the way or something.
[00:11:33] [SPEAKER_18]: So yeah, we may have had to meander around a couple of hallways to get to this point.
[00:11:40] [SPEAKER_20]: So either way, we are on path to actually go to the ship.
[00:11:44] [SPEAKER_20]: We're not side track right now.
[00:11:45] [SPEAKER_11]: Yeah.
[00:11:46] [SPEAKER_19]: No.
[00:11:46] [SPEAKER_11]: Yeah.
[00:11:47] [SPEAKER_11]: So I mean it's quarter upon quarter kind of deal like that.
[00:11:51] [SPEAKER_11]: So you all have.
[00:11:54] [SPEAKER_11]: You're all standing there like said you could go into it, but.
[00:11:57] [SPEAKER_11]: Um.
[00:11:59] [SPEAKER_11]: Hmm.
[00:12:01] [SPEAKER_11]: See what?
[00:12:02] [SPEAKER_11]: Uh, as you're all gazing, why don't y'all just and this is just kind of a row for
[00:12:07] [SPEAKER_11]: things that you see here.
[00:12:09] [SPEAKER_11]: A little bit of flavor text, maybe a little something more.
[00:12:11] [SPEAKER_11]: Who knows?
[00:12:12] [SPEAKER_11]: Uh, why don't you ever give me a D6?
[00:12:14] [SPEAKER_20]: I was just going to ask what are we rolling generally for this?
[00:12:18] [SPEAKER_11]: No, it's you're just rolling a D6.
[00:12:20] [SPEAKER_11]: This is like a random table.
[00:12:21] [SPEAKER_20]: I literally don't remember.
[00:12:23] [SPEAKER_20]: Oh, I know what you're asking now.
[00:12:24] [SPEAKER_20]: I meant in general for Coriolis, is it only D6s?
[00:12:28] [SPEAKER_11]: Yes.
[00:12:29] [SPEAKER_20]: Okay.
[00:12:29] [SPEAKER_20]: Thank you.
[00:12:30] [SPEAKER_11]: And you're, you only count sixes.
[00:12:32] [SPEAKER_20]: Right.
[00:12:33] [SPEAKER_20]: But everyone's just rolling one right now.
[00:12:34] [SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, just give me one.
[00:12:35] [SPEAKER_11]: I'm just going to see what you all got.
[00:12:37] [SPEAKER_20]: I got a four.
[00:12:39] [SPEAKER_02]: One.
[00:12:39] [SPEAKER_02]: Got a two.
[00:12:41] [SPEAKER_11]: What would you say?
[00:12:42] [SPEAKER_11]: Get Josh.
[00:12:43] [SPEAKER_02]: Two.
[00:12:44] [SPEAKER_02]: I doubled Dave.
[00:12:46] [SPEAKER_11]: I dare you.
[00:12:48] [SPEAKER_11]: And then Chris.
[00:12:50] [SPEAKER_11]: And I doubled Josh.
[00:12:51] [SPEAKER_18]: Josh.
[00:12:52] [SPEAKER_11]: All right.
[00:12:53] [SPEAKER_11]: So Zeb, which is Chris reestablishment.
[00:12:59] [SPEAKER_01]: Zeb, we're going to die like Zeba lived.
[00:13:02] [SPEAKER_11]: No.
[00:13:04] [SPEAKER_04]: I finally wake up from a fucking person.
[00:13:06] [SPEAKER_11]: I will get back to you on this, Chris.
[00:13:09] [SPEAKER_11]: So, uh, tell you what?
[00:13:10] [SPEAKER_11]: Number four Dave, like.
[00:13:13] [SPEAKER_11]: You see as you, as you're kind of glancing through there, you see, you
[00:13:17] [SPEAKER_11]: kind of noticed it in the commons area, like the, like I said, the kind of area
[00:13:21] [SPEAKER_11]: between the two housing structures that you would have there.
[00:13:25] [SPEAKER_11]: You see a, um, it's kind of a, like a flickering light.
[00:13:31] [SPEAKER_11]: You think you see like a green light over, uh, you kind of see it just
[00:13:35] [SPEAKER_11]: kind of like come out of the ground and stop and come out of the ground and stop.
[00:13:39] [SPEAKER_11]: And then as this, as the ship rotates a little bit and use, you keep staring
[00:13:43] [SPEAKER_11]: at it cause I mean, you're all just kind of just staring at this massive
[00:13:46] [SPEAKER_11]: destruction.
[00:13:46] [SPEAKER_11]: I mean, like this was a catastrophic event for this station.
[00:13:51] [SPEAKER_11]: And you see, like it's kind of like wires are connecting or wires are like,
[00:13:56] [SPEAKER_11]: a connection is shorting out and whatnot.
[00:13:59] [SPEAKER_11]: And then periodically it looks like you see like the shape of a person
[00:14:04] [SPEAKER_11]: appear and like you can't hear sound because, you know, everything
[00:14:10] [SPEAKER_11]: closes off, but you just get this image of, um, like this.
[00:14:15] [SPEAKER_11]: I'm thinking of, um, was if you're ever seen the movie time machine, we've
[00:14:19] [SPEAKER_11]: got peers.
[00:14:20] [SPEAKER_20]: Uh, no.
[00:14:22] [SPEAKER_11]: Okay.
[00:14:22] [SPEAKER_11]: So it's, it's basically like an AI, like mass effects style kind of, uh,
[00:14:28] [SPEAKER_11]: generating into the, in the center of this, uh, the area and then like it'll
[00:14:32] [SPEAKER_11]: stop, it's just like flickering.
[00:14:34] [SPEAKER_11]: It's like kind of fast now, but it's a, it's a human shape that
[00:14:36] [SPEAKER_11]: appears and then stops.
[00:14:39] [SPEAKER_11]: And so it could be like an info kiosk or, uh, recording this trying to play
[00:14:44] [SPEAKER_11]: or whatnot, but you, like it never stays connected long enough for you to, uh,
[00:14:49] [SPEAKER_11]: see anything.
[00:14:50] [SPEAKER_20]: How far away is it from the door?
[00:14:53] [SPEAKER_11]: Um, I would say it's about, um, trying to think at scale of the place.
[00:15:04] [SPEAKER_11]: It would be before you actually start getting to the housing part.
[00:15:08] [SPEAKER_11]: So it's just kind of, um,
[00:15:10] [SPEAKER_11]: if they're in the 150 yards till you actually reach the, um, where the
[00:15:19] [SPEAKER_11]: structures of the houses are on each complimentary side, it would be in
[00:15:22] [SPEAKER_11]: the center of that.
[00:15:24] [SPEAKER_11]: So maybe 75 yards or something close to that.
[00:15:28] [SPEAKER_11]: But like I said, it just, it just, it flickers on and then flickers off,
[00:15:31] [SPEAKER_11]: flickers on and then flickers off.
[00:15:34] [SPEAKER_20]: Okay.
[00:15:36] [SPEAKER_20]: Uh, I don't remember.
[00:15:38] [SPEAKER_20]: Do we have any means for spacewalk stuff?
[00:15:41] [SPEAKER_20]: Cause that's all like zero G and exposed out there.
[00:15:45] [SPEAKER_17]: I think where you have, uh, they're called XO shells in this game.
[00:15:49] [SPEAKER_17]: Like which are spacesuits.
[00:15:51] [SPEAKER_11]: It, you have your, your, your, your XO shell.
[00:15:55] [SPEAKER_11]: I think there was one of you, oh, it may have been Zep or somebody
[00:15:57] [SPEAKER_11]: had had in their item.
[00:15:58] [SPEAKER_11]: Uh, there, there's the hand jet.
[00:16:03] [SPEAKER_11]: Um, honestly, like not to nitpick.
[00:16:05] [SPEAKER_11]: I would say that probably why wouldn't you have magnetized boots anyway?
[00:16:09] [SPEAKER_11]: Yeah.
[00:16:10] [SPEAKER_11]: Stuff like this.
[00:16:11] [SPEAKER_11]: So like, I mean, if you want to, if you want to wrote, somebody wants to
[00:16:15] [SPEAKER_11]: roll data, Jeannie and we'll get back to you in a moment.
[00:16:18] [SPEAKER_11]: You can.
[00:16:20] [SPEAKER_11]: And then you could, you could try to, you know, hack the door open.
[00:16:24] [SPEAKER_20]: Um, or any of us to hack.
[00:16:26] [SPEAKER_17]: And I would, um, I do have, I have data gin at one.
[00:16:33] [SPEAKER_20]: So I've got three.
[00:16:35] [SPEAKER_20]: Okay.
[00:16:35] [SPEAKER_11]: So you then, yeah.
[00:16:37] [SPEAKER_11]: I would, I would also say that there's probably like a, um, not probably,
[00:16:42] [SPEAKER_11]: I would say that there's like a little in between decompression kind of
[00:16:47] [SPEAKER_11]: like, you know, the like the little chamber between chambers.
[00:16:51] [SPEAKER_11]: So you just don't open a door and then it just like out in space.
[00:16:55] [SPEAKER_20]: No lock situation.
[00:16:58] [SPEAKER_11]: Yeah.
[00:16:59] [SPEAKER_11]: So yeah, I mean, it's possible for that.
[00:17:01] [SPEAKER_11]: Now we said, uh, Josh, if you're kind of Josh, I think he wrote a two,
[00:17:09] [SPEAKER_11]: didn't he?
[00:17:09] [SPEAKER_20]: Yes.
[00:17:10] [SPEAKER_20]: Yes.
[00:17:11] [SPEAKER_11]: Okay.
[00:17:12] [SPEAKER_11]: So, uh, Neema, your character, Neema, you as you, I mean, you're
[00:17:16] [SPEAKER_11]: kind of just glancing around and caught amongst the, uh, one of the dead
[00:17:22] [SPEAKER_11]: trees that's there because there were a couple of they're growing.
[00:17:25] [SPEAKER_11]: There's also an arbitorium on the ship, but you can see where
[00:17:28] [SPEAKER_11]: there was stuff here and you got some of that plant growth is in here,
[00:17:33] [SPEAKER_11]: though not as much, but it's kind of sneaking its way here and there
[00:17:37] [SPEAKER_11]: throughout the place.
[00:17:38] [SPEAKER_11]: You do see it looks like a, um, let's see, a shirt, uh, a jacket,
[00:17:47] [SPEAKER_11]: actually our market flight looking dusty green jacket, um, hanging from
[00:17:51] [SPEAKER_11]: a tree on the back of it.
[00:17:56] [SPEAKER_11]: You see you kind of looking, you kind of glance at your strain and
[00:18:01] [SPEAKER_11]: you can't make out everything except like a hyphen and a number 18 on it.
[00:18:08] [SPEAKER_03]: And someone lost their letterman jacket.
[00:18:13] [SPEAKER_11]: So let's look at, let's talk about, uh, let's talk about Zeb.
[00:18:17] [SPEAKER_11]: Zeb, you're taking OS and I said I wanted to kind of do yours last
[00:18:20] [SPEAKER_11]: because you're special.
[00:18:21] [SPEAKER_11]: Um, Zeb, if you're, if you're looking out in it, um, it's kind of
[00:18:29] [SPEAKER_11]: like where the sun's catching.
[00:18:30] [SPEAKER_11]: It's what makes you notice it at first.
[00:18:32] [SPEAKER_11]: Like, uh, I don't know if you guys have been, oh, I know you all
[00:18:37] [SPEAKER_11]: hiker, you've been in the woods before.
[00:18:39] [SPEAKER_11]: Like there's things that stick out more amongst, uh, when you look at lines.
[00:18:43] [SPEAKER_11]: Like, so if you're looking in a forest, you see trees and trees
[00:18:47] [SPEAKER_11]: grow up right?
[00:18:48] [SPEAKER_11]: So if you're looking for something that's not a tree, something
[00:18:51] [SPEAKER_11]: that like would be a deer or an elk or a bear or anything like it,
[00:18:54] [SPEAKER_11]: you're looking for like vertical.
[00:18:56] [SPEAKER_11]: I mean, yeah, vertical lines instead of horizontal lines.
[00:18:59] [SPEAKER_11]: I don't know if you get that back horizontally.
[00:19:01] [SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, I got it backwards, but yeah.
[00:19:03] [SPEAKER_11]: Yeah.
[00:19:05] [SPEAKER_11]: Your trees don't grow that way in Canada.
[00:19:07] [SPEAKER_11]: Oh, okay.
[00:19:08] [SPEAKER_11]: That's right.
[00:19:10] [SPEAKER_10]: But, uh, I mean,
[00:19:12] [SPEAKER_04]: it was weird.
[00:19:15] [SPEAKER_04]: It was weird.
[00:19:15] [SPEAKER_04]: Vertical vertical, it does happen.
[00:19:16] [SPEAKER_04]: Sorry.
[00:19:17] [SPEAKER_04]: Horizontal.
[00:19:17] [SPEAKER_04]: Fuck.
[00:19:19] [SPEAKER_10]: See, Josh, that's funny.
[00:19:20] [SPEAKER_10]: Now is it buddy?
[00:19:22] [SPEAKER_10]: But it's kind of you.
[00:19:24] [SPEAKER_11]: I learned watching you, but, ah, which is what my daughter said when she
[00:19:31] [SPEAKER_11]: went out to cut her cussing at Gen Con when she saw we were 19 stories
[00:19:34] [SPEAKER_11]: off the ground, she goes walks in the hotel.
[00:19:36] [SPEAKER_11]: She goes, holy shit, looking out the window to the ground and I go,
[00:19:40] [SPEAKER_11]: I get my daughter's name.
[00:19:41] [SPEAKER_11]: She goes, sorry, dad, I learned it watching you.
[00:19:45] [SPEAKER_11]: Damn it.
[00:19:46] [SPEAKER_11]: But anyway, away from my family life.
[00:19:48] [SPEAKER_11]: Okay.
[00:19:50] [SPEAKER_14]: Back to space.
[00:19:54] [SPEAKER_11]: So you see rails, you see, you see stuff that is like going toward the other side
[00:20:01] [SPEAKER_11]: of the building, you know, like handrails that would be going toward a wall
[00:20:03] [SPEAKER_11]: and stuff like that.
[00:20:04] [SPEAKER_11]: So you're kind of glancing about it and you, you catch a little bit of movement
[00:20:08] [SPEAKER_11]: and then you see what looks like a head and shoulders raise up and scurry
[00:20:16] [SPEAKER_11]: to the outside, like, like scurry around a wall and then you see like a little
[00:20:21] [SPEAKER_11]: blip on the light coming in from the star and then it's gone.
[00:20:26] [SPEAKER_11]: So like you get the impression that someone or something was standing
[00:20:30] [SPEAKER_11]: there and then when they saw that, they just went outside the ship and
[00:20:35] [SPEAKER_11]: scurried around the side of it.
[00:20:36] [SPEAKER_18]: Did I catch that they were in a suit or is it like a court?
[00:20:40] [SPEAKER_11]: Like it's kind of far away.
[00:20:41] [SPEAKER_11]: I mean, it's if it's a hundred and seventy five yards, like you see
[00:20:46] [SPEAKER_11]: something vaguely human shape, you think, but you see movement and you see
[00:20:50] [SPEAKER_11]: like when it gets around the edge of the ship, it's blown out.
[00:20:53] [SPEAKER_11]: You see like you get the impression something went over it.
[00:20:59] [SPEAKER_18]: Okay.
[00:21:00] [SPEAKER_18]: Captain.
[00:21:02] [SPEAKER_18]: Oh yeah.
[00:21:03] [SPEAKER_18]: We got movement.
[00:21:05] [SPEAKER_18]: I just, I just saw something over there that points to the direction
[00:21:09] [SPEAKER_18]: of where it was, where the movement was.
[00:21:13] [SPEAKER_18]: I don't know.
[00:21:15] [SPEAKER_18]: I don't know who or what it was, but somebody just something or somebody
[00:21:19] [SPEAKER_18]: just moved out of the ship for that big hole.
[00:21:23] [SPEAKER_20]: Are you sure I didn't see anything on my proximity scanner that I had out
[00:21:26] [SPEAKER_20]: because that's the thing that I have and I had it at the whole time
[00:21:29] [SPEAKER_20]: because I actually did.
[00:21:31] [SPEAKER_18]: I'm pretty sure.
[00:21:35] [SPEAKER_18]: You sure you didn't see that on your on your perimeter scanner?
[00:21:38] [SPEAKER_06]: I don't think it goes one hundred and seventy five yards.
[00:21:41] [SPEAKER_18]: It's probably doesn't go that far.
[00:21:43] [SPEAKER_18]: Maybe should we should we check that out?
[00:21:49] [SPEAKER_18]: Was it a survivor from the ship or from the shuttle that we were here to?
[00:21:52] [SPEAKER_06]: Seventy five yards.
[00:21:53] [SPEAKER_04]: That's over 500 feet.
[00:21:55] [SPEAKER_20]: Yeah, for sure.
[00:21:56] [SPEAKER_20]: Yeah.
[00:21:56] [SPEAKER_20]: I mean, it could have just been debris.
[00:21:59] [SPEAKER_20]: It could have been a survivor, but if they're floating out into space,
[00:22:03] [SPEAKER_20]: I don't know if they're surviving.
[00:22:05] [SPEAKER_18]: I don't know if it was it looked like they scurried out around the hole.
[00:22:10] [SPEAKER_20]: Well, that makes me feel a lot better.
[00:22:12] [SPEAKER_18]: I know, right?
[00:22:15] [SPEAKER_18]: I mean, worst case scenario, it's a corpse.
[00:22:21] [SPEAKER_18]: Best case scenario, it's a survivor that might be
[00:22:25] [SPEAKER_18]: like, is that best case?
[00:22:30] [SPEAKER_04]: If they're scurrying around outside or back.
[00:22:33] [SPEAKER_20]: I don't like that you said scurrying to be perfectly honest.
[00:22:36] [SPEAKER_18]: Exactly.
[00:22:37] [SPEAKER_18]: I don't want to.
[00:22:38] [SPEAKER_18]: That's how that's how I that's best I could describe how they moved.
[00:22:42] [SPEAKER_18]: I didn't get a full I didn't get a full look at them.
[00:22:44] [SPEAKER_18]: I just got like the head and shoulder area, and then they just kind of like
[00:22:47] [SPEAKER_18]: went out into space.
[00:22:48] [SPEAKER_18]: I didn't even know I didn't even catch it if they were wearing an exo suit.
[00:22:52] [SPEAKER_18]: I hope to God they were wearing an exo shell.
[00:22:55] [SPEAKER_18]: I don't like this.
[00:22:57] [SPEAKER_11]: OK, shoulders, knees and toes, knees and toes.
[00:23:00] [SPEAKER_11]: Please say this.
[00:23:00] [SPEAKER_16]: There is with Briggs in the background.
[00:23:04] [SPEAKER_20]: There's a potentially a what's the the AI thing called in this universe?
[00:23:11] [SPEAKER_18]: I think called like kinetic intelligence or my.
[00:23:16] [SPEAKER_11]: Is that I think that's what I want to think.
[00:23:17] [SPEAKER_11]: I can't recall to be.
[00:23:19] [SPEAKER_18]: I was just looking at that in the book the other day,
[00:23:21] [SPEAKER_18]: like I was looking at like things that are in the world.
[00:23:24] [SPEAKER_11]: I don't think in this world we don't have singularity if I'm not mistaken.
[00:23:28] [SPEAKER_20]: No, either way.
[00:23:29] [SPEAKER_20]: But I believe that I believe that green light blinking in that room over there
[00:23:33] [SPEAKER_20]: is a K.I.
[00:23:35] [SPEAKER_20]: And it might be able to tell us what actually happened here.
[00:23:38] [SPEAKER_20]: And if that thing you saw was a weird creature,
[00:23:41] [SPEAKER_20]: that might know and confirm it better than your eyes did very briefly.
[00:23:46] [SPEAKER_20]: Like not that they don't trust you, but.
[00:23:50] [SPEAKER_20]: I don't want to go on a wild goose chase.
[00:23:52] [SPEAKER_20]: That is a that light is a definite thing we can go do for sure.
[00:23:57] [SPEAKER_20]: Going over there isn't necessarily.
[00:24:01] [SPEAKER_20]: It's not necessarily helping us towards our goal.
[00:24:05] [SPEAKER_20]: So for now.
[00:24:08] [SPEAKER_20]: I need someone open this door, get the rope.
[00:24:12] [SPEAKER_20]: Tie one of us off and go out into space.
[00:24:14] [SPEAKER_20]: Check that K.I.
[00:24:16] [SPEAKER_20]: See what if there's any information on it?
[00:24:19] [SPEAKER_17]: Well, I do have some hyper rope.
[00:24:21] [SPEAKER_17]: Also just to stop going in further.
[00:24:23] [SPEAKER_04]: OK, is that I'm actually here?
[00:24:25] [SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, yeah, I'm here.
[00:24:25] [SPEAKER_11]: My daughter walked up to tell me something.
[00:24:28] [SPEAKER_11]: So five system.
[00:24:29] [SPEAKER_04]: It's all good.
[00:24:30] [SPEAKER_11]: So do you all want to go into the room?
[00:24:33] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[00:24:35] [SPEAKER_11]: Oh, let's see.
[00:24:37] [SPEAKER_11]: Let's let the rose aside.
[00:24:39] [SPEAKER_11]: So can you like so you're standing looking in that glass?
[00:24:43] [SPEAKER_11]: You're kind of I mean think of it like if maybe two paint.
[00:24:46] [SPEAKER_11]: You can see there's a little area between.
[00:24:49] [SPEAKER_11]: You can if you can get into the in between room,
[00:24:53] [SPEAKER_11]: you can go ahead and do the decompression,
[00:24:56] [SPEAKER_11]: but I'll give you it depends if you get a success.
[00:25:00] [SPEAKER_11]: So you're going to road that again and whatever corresponds with that.
[00:25:04] [SPEAKER_11]: I'm looking at the pregen right now.
[00:25:07] [SPEAKER_18]: It's a it's wits.
[00:25:10] [SPEAKER_18]: Also, would it be data gen or technology?
[00:25:12] [SPEAKER_17]: I'm just trying to figure that out.
[00:25:15] [SPEAKER_11]: Technology is a good question.
[00:25:18] [SPEAKER_11]: I'm going through the multiple sheets that this thing has.
[00:25:21] [SPEAKER_11]: It's a I see.
[00:25:24] [SPEAKER_11]: You are.
[00:25:27] [SPEAKER_11]: Doctor, I see Neema now.
[00:25:29] [SPEAKER_11]: Doctor, what that is in is.
[00:25:37] [SPEAKER_18]: It's for computer hacking, basically.
[00:25:39] [SPEAKER_18]: Is the data?
[00:25:39] [SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, I honestly kind of think it would be data gen really for that.
[00:25:44] [SPEAKER_11]: I'd have to look at the book for the difference between the two.
[00:25:47] [SPEAKER_11]: But this is the application of trying to hack as opposed to.
[00:25:53] [SPEAKER_18]: Yeah, it looks like technology is for gadgets and like smaller
[00:25:58] [SPEAKER_18]: like like small gadgets and stuff.
[00:26:01] [SPEAKER_18]: Whereas data gen is definitely for like the hacking stuff.
[00:26:04] [SPEAKER_11]: Yeah.
[00:26:05] [SPEAKER_11]: More of the application side of it.
[00:26:08] [SPEAKER_18]: Yeah.
[00:26:08] [SPEAKER_11]: So I mean there's the chances are it's your idea.
[00:26:13] [SPEAKER_11]: If you fail, it's just going to make a ramp and that's it.
[00:26:16] [SPEAKER_11]: But you can go ahead and try.
[00:26:18] [SPEAKER_20]: So unrelated.
[00:26:19] [SPEAKER_20]: I'm reading the little blurb about my relationships with each person
[00:26:24] [SPEAKER_20]: for Neema says someone you listen to, though he is.
[00:26:28] [SPEAKER_20]: It just stops there.
[00:26:32] [SPEAKER_20]: He is what?
[00:26:35] [SPEAKER_06]: He just is Dave.
[00:26:36] [SPEAKER_06]: He just is.
[00:26:37] [SPEAKER_18]: Oh yeah, that's what I have here is like Dr.
[00:26:39] [SPEAKER_18]: Wana, the acbar of the ship, smart and diamond hard, but maybe
[00:26:44] [SPEAKER_18]: sometimes a bit too demanding dot dot dot.
[00:26:47] [SPEAKER_20]: Which is working pretty well right now because I'm demanding
[00:26:50] [SPEAKER_20]: what you guys do.
[00:26:51] [SPEAKER_18]: Yeah, exactly.
[00:26:53] [SPEAKER_04]: Dave, I've got the boss smart enough to realize that she does
[00:26:56] [SPEAKER_04]: not always know the no best.
[00:27:01] [SPEAKER_18]: But yeah, I think Neema, you have the better data or data gen.
[00:27:06] [SPEAKER_04]: Yes, I have great data gen and three widths.
[00:27:09] [SPEAKER_04]: Sweet.
[00:27:10] [SPEAKER_20]: And I believe because I'm giving orders, I give them a bonus.
[00:27:14] [SPEAKER_20]: I don't remember what the bonus was though, and it's not
[00:27:17] [SPEAKER_20]: on like anywhere.
[00:27:18] [SPEAKER_20]: It's one.
[00:27:19] [SPEAKER_11]: It's plus one.
[00:27:20] [SPEAKER_11]: And so it's basically your you're using command.
[00:27:23] [SPEAKER_20]: Yeah, oh, I see.
[00:27:27] [SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, but you're care with that skill.
[00:27:30] [SPEAKER_11]: I mean, you don't have the skills, but you buff.
[00:27:33] [SPEAKER_11]: That's kind of the support row.
[00:27:35] [SPEAKER_11]: Yeah.
[00:27:38] [SPEAKER_11]: So yeah, go ahead and give us those rows.
[00:27:40] [SPEAKER_11]: If you get a six, you succeed.
[00:27:43] [SPEAKER_04]: That's it.
[00:27:45] [SPEAKER_04]: One six.
[00:27:49] OK.
[00:27:51] [SPEAKER_11]: I say, yeah, one six, you definitely succeed.
[00:27:53] [SPEAKER_11]: Hold on.
[00:27:55] [SPEAKER_11]: I accidentally closed out of my.
[00:27:59] [SPEAKER_11]: I was clicking buttons and I closed out of the thing.
[00:28:03] [SPEAKER_11]: OK, so everybody, the door opens slowly.
[00:28:07] [SPEAKER_11]: You're running on limited power.
[00:28:11] [SPEAKER_11]: It's closed.
[00:28:12] [SPEAKER_11]: It opens.
[00:28:13] [SPEAKER_11]: You step in.
[00:28:14] [SPEAKER_11]: It's slowly, much like a vehicle running out of batteries kind
[00:28:18] [SPEAKER_11]: of far, you know, a toy running out of batteries.
[00:28:21] [SPEAKER_11]: It slowly, slowly closes.
[00:28:24] [SPEAKER_11]: And even when it closes, you're sitting there for a few awkward
[00:28:28] [SPEAKER_11]: seconds just waiting for the seal to be made.
[00:28:31] [SPEAKER_11]: You're like, well, it's closed.
[00:28:32] [SPEAKER_11]: It should work.
[00:28:33] [SPEAKER_11]: It's just start kicking on and it just kind of like.
[00:28:36] [SPEAKER_11]: It nothing happens for a moment.
[00:28:38] [SPEAKER_11]: And then the lights kick on.
[00:28:41] [SPEAKER_11]: Well, you know, warning that they're going to be, you know,
[00:28:44] [SPEAKER_11]: the pressurization change and what not.
[00:28:48] [SPEAKER_11]: And, you know, give a warning that you're entering a that
[00:28:51] [SPEAKER_11]: PA system in there.
[00:28:53] [SPEAKER_11]: What warning entering a.
[00:28:55] [SPEAKER_11]: And I can't think of the word for it up top my head.
[00:28:58] [SPEAKER_11]: I'm zoned out.
[00:28:59] [SPEAKER_11]: But warning entering a zero entering a zero atmosphere
[00:29:03] [SPEAKER_11]: environment and it's, you know, do you wish to continue?
[00:29:07] [SPEAKER_11]: And, you know, I assume you hit yes or and it just like slowly,
[00:29:14] [SPEAKER_11]: slowly, slowly, you kind of.
[00:29:16] [SPEAKER_11]: It's a weird thing about suits is not like you go when you're
[00:29:19] [SPEAKER_11]: going up and down in a heat going in elevation, yours popping
[00:29:22] [SPEAKER_11]: and stuff like that.
[00:29:23] [SPEAKER_11]: It's just like you're still white.
[00:29:26] [SPEAKER_11]: I mean, you're you're partitioned off from all that there.
[00:29:29] [SPEAKER_11]: But it takes a few minutes and then boom.
[00:29:34] [SPEAKER_11]: The doors start slowly opening again.
[00:29:37] [SPEAKER_11]: And.
[00:29:39] [SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, I mean, you're greeted with a much clearer view
[00:29:43] [SPEAKER_11]: since the thing was a little.
[00:29:46] [SPEAKER_11]: You know, dirty from the pollen and just being exposed
[00:29:52] [SPEAKER_11]: into space and all that.
[00:29:54] [SPEAKER_11]: But it opens up into that open courtyard.
[00:29:58] [SPEAKER_11]: You know, by snake here and there, but not as thick
[00:30:02] [SPEAKER_11]: as in the rest of the ship.
[00:30:04] [SPEAKER_11]: And you see it flickering a light.
[00:30:07] [SPEAKER_18]: OK, so approaching the girl, the approaching the light
[00:30:11] [SPEAKER_18]: on the way is forward.
[00:30:13] [SPEAKER_20]: Nima, keep your gun out because if there's something weird
[00:30:15] [SPEAKER_20]: out there.
[00:30:17] [SPEAKER_20]: I don't want it near us.
[00:30:19] [SPEAKER_20]: Yeah, would ask you to keep your gun out, Zeb, but you have
[00:30:23] [SPEAKER_20]: a hammer, I believe.
[00:30:25] [SPEAKER_18]: I have my power sled in hand.
[00:30:28] [SPEAKER_20]: Hell yeah.
[00:30:29] [SPEAKER_18]: Big old sledgehammer, big old tech sledgehammer.
[00:30:32] [SPEAKER_20]: As we approach, I'll keep my proximity scanner out.
[00:30:37] [SPEAKER_11]: So slow, steady.
[00:30:39] [SPEAKER_11]: I mean, sound definitely isn't really carrying.
[00:30:42] [SPEAKER_11]: So we'll hear the only sound you really hear is
[00:30:44] [SPEAKER_11]: just a slight thumping of your magnetic boosts
[00:30:47] [SPEAKER_11]: as you're walking, walking toward it.
[00:30:50] [SPEAKER_18]: Sorry, I did check the exo shell like description.
[00:30:53] [SPEAKER_18]: The soles of the feet do have like a vacuum seal kind of thing.
[00:30:56] [SPEAKER_18]: Like a vacuum seal. OK, cool.
[00:30:57] [SPEAKER_04]: So it's like plungers instead, stuff.
[00:30:59] [SPEAKER_18]: Basically, yeah.
[00:31:01] [SPEAKER_18]: Well, that's good to know.
[00:31:04] [SPEAKER_18]: Yeah, it's just like that popping sound every
[00:31:08] [SPEAKER_18]: if we weren't in back here.
[00:31:10] [SPEAKER_11]: I mean, with that knowledge, you know, like basically
[00:31:13] [SPEAKER_11]: the steps you're taking, you're actually taking much more care
[00:31:16] [SPEAKER_11]: not to step on something that would not make a good seal.
[00:31:20] [SPEAKER_11]: So like, you know, when you come across vines,
[00:31:22] [SPEAKER_11]: you're not stepping on the vines.
[00:31:25] [SPEAKER_11]: You're you know, stepping around them.
[00:31:27] [SPEAKER_11]: It makes a few awkward steps, but you get up to it.
[00:31:30] [SPEAKER_11]: And yeah, you can see it much clearer, much more clearly.
[00:31:35] [SPEAKER_11]: You know, you're standing.
[00:31:37] [SPEAKER_11]: I would kind of think it's obviously not a campfire
[00:31:40] [SPEAKER_11]: but campfire size kind of like hearth kind of deal.
[00:31:43] [SPEAKER_11]: Like flickers on, like, you know, you see movement of the human shape.
[00:31:48] [SPEAKER_11]: It cuts off and then it cuts back on again
[00:31:50] [SPEAKER_11]: and you see it over and over like repeating the same actions over.
[00:31:55] [SPEAKER_11]: Now, I would say that with kind of along the same lines,
[00:32:00] [SPEAKER_11]: if you want to pull any more information from this,
[00:32:02] [SPEAKER_11]: you would probably this is where your technology tinkering kind of deal.
[00:32:06] [SPEAKER_11]: So this is this is more of I got electric tape and a screwdriver.
[00:32:11] [SPEAKER_11]: Like, if you want to try to reestablish a connection
[00:32:15] [SPEAKER_11]: and I will say just with
[00:32:18] [SPEAKER_11]: with the degree of success, the degree of information you get.
[00:32:22] [SPEAKER_20]: OK, OK, I believe is that is the technology person.
[00:32:26] [SPEAKER_18]: I'm the tech I'm the tech Newman.
[00:32:28] [SPEAKER_18]: And I do have I do get a plus one when I'm using tools.
[00:32:32] [SPEAKER_18]: So that that apply to this since I'm like pulling up some
[00:32:35] [SPEAKER_11]: pliers and your neo space pliers,
[00:32:39] [SPEAKER_18]: a neo space pliers and some some some some space electric to tape.
[00:32:43] [SPEAKER_18]: Yeah, some some electric tape.
[00:32:46] [SPEAKER_18]: So that's going to be three plus my wits, which I think is also is five.
[00:32:51] [SPEAKER_18]: So that's eight, nine, nine dice.
[00:32:55] [SPEAKER_20]: You want to hand that to you to do it?
[00:32:58] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, if you want, go for it. OK. This thing. Yeah.
[00:33:03] [SPEAKER_11]: All right, I mean, I'm going to make a judgment call.
[00:33:05] [SPEAKER_11]: I'm going to make a judgment call on this and like,
[00:33:07] [SPEAKER_11]: like there is no wheel thing kind of going on here.
[00:33:10] [SPEAKER_11]: This is kind of more like other than that,
[00:33:13] [SPEAKER_11]: like I need my fly the ship. Boom, plus one.
[00:33:16] [SPEAKER_18]: Hey.
[00:33:17] [SPEAKER_18]: All right, so I'm just doing the nine then. That's fine.
[00:33:21] [SPEAKER_18]: All right, so that is going to be two sixes.
[00:33:29] [SPEAKER_11]: So.
[00:33:30] [SPEAKER_11]: Tinkering around you lift the panel up.
[00:33:33] [SPEAKER_11]: You see the problem, what it looks like is like the wires have been
[00:33:39] [SPEAKER_11]: the housing around them.
[00:33:40] [SPEAKER_11]: So it's like being exposed to the actual elements felt,
[00:33:44] [SPEAKER_11]: you know, even if it was under a panel,
[00:33:46] [SPEAKER_11]: like you're still kind of going through the atmosphere and whatnot.
[00:33:49] [SPEAKER_11]: And it's like the plastic starts kind of crumbling
[00:33:53] [SPEAKER_11]: or the housing around the wires kind of crumbles a little bit when you touch it.
[00:33:56] [SPEAKER_11]: It's just like I don't know if you've ever seen like deoxidized plastic
[00:33:59] [SPEAKER_11]: or something like this kind of like it's like flaky and powdery.
[00:34:05] [SPEAKER_11]: And you're tinkering around in fat
[00:34:07] [SPEAKER_11]: and then like you've got your neospice electric tape and whatnot
[00:34:12] [SPEAKER_11]: and you're tweaking and you know, you're kind of also feeling along the wire
[00:34:16] [SPEAKER_11]: to other spots that are as like kind of iffy and you wrap it up.
[00:34:22] [SPEAKER_11]: And then you finally like manage to establish a can.
[00:34:26] [SPEAKER_11]: A.
[00:34:28] [SPEAKER_11]: A.
[00:34:31] [SPEAKER_11]: Connection and it kicks on and the speakers,
[00:34:34] [SPEAKER_11]: which obviously you guys have mics with your suits and stuff like that.
[00:34:39] [SPEAKER_11]: So you can obviously hear sounds and whatnot,
[00:34:40] [SPEAKER_11]: even if you are with your headset.
[00:34:42] [SPEAKER_18]: I mean, it really plugs into into space.
[00:34:45] [SPEAKER_11]: So that you're picking it, you start picking up the audio
[00:34:49] [SPEAKER_11]: and it's like even though it's a full connection, it kind of cuts out.
[00:34:52] [SPEAKER_11]: It goes like, oh, you get up.
[00:34:56] [SPEAKER_11]: You see the image of a woman.
[00:35:00] [SPEAKER_11]: She looks like she's in her early forties.
[00:35:03] [SPEAKER_11]: Kind of look and of course it's also through this green holographic light
[00:35:07] [SPEAKER_11]: that you have kind of like shining up around.
[00:35:10] [SPEAKER_11]: Like I said, I'm kind of thinking mass effect and whatever the citadel AI is.
[00:35:15] [SPEAKER_18]: Yeah, the the V.I.
[00:35:17] [SPEAKER_18]: Programs that like provide you like tourist information
[00:35:20] [SPEAKER_18]: and like guiding information and such.
[00:35:23] [SPEAKER_11]: And you start getting like.
[00:35:28] [SPEAKER_11]: You get it.
[00:35:29] [SPEAKER_11]: So as it's like this sound for a second, you get a whole breach
[00:35:33] [SPEAKER_11]: and then like it moves a bit because all personalities report to the
[00:35:39] [SPEAKER_11]: orbit and then it cuts out again.
[00:35:43] [SPEAKER_11]: It gets on the the only it gets back in and go
[00:35:49] [SPEAKER_11]: our only hope is the flower repeat.
[00:35:52] [SPEAKER_11]: And it just keeps going over and over of like whole breach.
[00:35:55] [SPEAKER_11]: Everyone like I'll crew report to the
[00:35:59] [SPEAKER_11]: using arbitorium like our only hope is the flower.
[00:36:05] [SPEAKER_11]: And it just it's just it's just a it's just a message.
[00:36:08] [SPEAKER_11]: It's a loop.
[00:36:09] [SPEAKER_11]: It just keeps going over and over with the success that
[00:36:15] [SPEAKER_11]: I'll say that, you know, there's a time you can kind of even as
[00:36:18] [SPEAKER_11]: you're going through like system properties so forth.
[00:36:21] [SPEAKER_11]: So this is just something that you do.
[00:36:24] [SPEAKER_11]: If it's not, I'm not going to make you roll for like little
[00:36:26] [SPEAKER_11]: nuanced stuff here.
[00:36:27] [SPEAKER_11]: But like as you're going through the system properties,
[00:36:29] [SPEAKER_11]: you see that this message has been playing for
[00:36:33] [SPEAKER_11]: well over a hundred years, just on loop over and over.
[00:36:37] [SPEAKER_18]: So things been siphoning for.
[00:36:40] [SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, that's why all the energy went to the power to hologram.
[00:36:43] [SPEAKER_18]: God damn God damn.
[00:36:45] [SPEAKER_20]: Shut that off and then everything works again.
[00:36:48] [SPEAKER_20]: It's siphoning so much power from the rest of the ship.
[00:36:52] [SPEAKER_11]: So I'm trying to see how to do an awareness check.
[00:36:56] [SPEAKER_03]: Little known fact about ships, all most of the power goes to
[00:36:59] [SPEAKER_03]: the fucking KIs.
[00:37:03] [SPEAKER_18]: It's more of a it's a bug.
[00:37:05] [SPEAKER_18]: It's a it's a feature, not a bug.
[00:37:07] [SPEAKER_18]: No one ever.
[00:37:09] [SPEAKER_11]: The starting amps are so much on it guys.
[00:37:12] [SPEAKER_11]: Like that's what it's just like it kicking on is just
[00:37:16] [SPEAKER_18]: a little bit of a bug.
[00:37:17] [SPEAKER_18]: Right then, oh yeah.
[00:37:18] [SPEAKER_18]: Adam, I think you're looking for like something for like
[00:37:21] [SPEAKER_18]: a perception check or awareness.
[00:37:22] [SPEAKER_18]: Yeah, that's probably observation plus wits.
[00:37:26] [SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, the concept gave me an observation plus wit.
[00:37:30] [SPEAKER_18]: If we don't have observation, I take it we can default just wits
[00:37:33] [SPEAKER_18]: or can we default in this game?
[00:37:35] [SPEAKER_11]: Well, you got your base wits and all that.
[00:37:38] [SPEAKER_11]: And if you.
[00:37:41] [SPEAKER_11]: I think a default row was just one die.
[00:37:43] [SPEAKER_11]: I'm not mistaken.
[00:37:45] [SPEAKER_11]: Guys, again, I'm playing kind of fast and loose.
[00:37:47] [SPEAKER_11]: I wasn't ready to do this.
[00:37:48] [SPEAKER_11]: So yeah, so yeah, I mean if you got.
[00:37:53] [SPEAKER_11]: If you've got wits observation, that's fine.
[00:37:56] [SPEAKER_11]: I'm trying to see if anything else would.
[00:37:59] [SPEAKER_18]: I just wondering like because I have like five in wits,
[00:38:02] [SPEAKER_18]: but I have nothing in observation.
[00:38:03] [SPEAKER_18]: So do I roll five wits or do I just roll one for the for that?
[00:38:07] [SPEAKER_11]: I think right now, for sake of us going forward,
[00:38:10] [SPEAKER_11]: I'd say just I mean you roll.
[00:38:13] [SPEAKER_11]: I'll take the five.
[00:38:14] [SPEAKER_11]: That seems fair to me.
[00:38:16] [SPEAKER_11]: OK, again, those you listen to play Corleola side
[00:38:19] [SPEAKER_11]: if I if I get things wrong, yeah, we're fine.
[00:38:22] [SPEAKER_18]: We're learning, we're learning. Oh, I haven't looked at this book
[00:38:28] [SPEAKER_11]: in over a month, Chris.
[00:38:31] [SPEAKER_11]: Don't worry.
[00:38:35] [SPEAKER_11]: Not really.
[00:38:38] [SPEAKER_18]: We don't have what's that?
[00:38:40] [SPEAKER_18]: What's the when you have like idetic memory?
[00:38:42] [SPEAKER_18]: Yeah, memory.
[00:38:46] [SPEAKER_18]: Yeah, I said I did it.
[00:38:47] [SPEAKER_10]: I remember it was like I did it.
[00:38:49] [SPEAKER_18]: Yes, I got nothing for that for that observation.
[00:38:53] [SPEAKER_20]: So I got two.
[00:38:59] [SPEAKER_20]: And one ones don't mean anything, right?
[00:39:01] [SPEAKER_20]: Like there's no shadow run style where if you have more ones
[00:39:04] [SPEAKER_20]: than and hits, then you fail.
[00:39:07] [SPEAKER_11]: Is six or nothing? OK.
[00:39:09] [SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, I would have loved to be shot around
[00:39:11] [SPEAKER_04]: because I got I wrote three dice, two of them are fives, one's a six.
[00:39:15] [SPEAKER_01]: Are you allowed to explode in dice? Yeah, exactly.
[00:39:20] [SPEAKER_11]: Yes, so you.
[00:39:22] Huh.
[00:39:24] [SPEAKER_11]: You glance over to your side like I mean,
[00:39:26] [SPEAKER_11]: everybody's been kind of gathered around this and you kind of look to your left.
[00:39:30] [SPEAKER_11]: I think it would been Dave's character.
[00:39:32] [SPEAKER_11]: You both Dave and Josh, Nima and Dr.
[00:39:34] [SPEAKER_11]: One has succeeded, right? Yep.
[00:39:37] [SPEAKER_11]: This step was too busy trying to, you know, I'm still trying to like add
[00:39:40] [SPEAKER_18]: more splectric tape to the wires to make sure that it doesn't get like
[00:39:46] [SPEAKER_18]: more degraded by like, yeah.
[00:39:50] [SPEAKER_11]: So you you glance over and you remember all the doors that you saw were closed.
[00:39:57] [SPEAKER_11]: Why is one of them open?
[00:39:59] [SPEAKER_11]: And that's when you kind of see out of the periphery,
[00:40:02] [SPEAKER_11]: like slowly walking towards you, you see a shake, you turn around and it is.
[00:40:09] [SPEAKER_11]: It's a very desiccated looking man.
[00:40:13] [SPEAKER_11]: He doesn't have an exosuit on
[00:40:19] [SPEAKER_11]: and it's just walking slowly towards you like alive,
[00:40:25] [SPEAKER_11]: like eyes blinking, everything,
[00:40:28] [SPEAKER_11]: but this guy's just slowly and cautiously walking towards you.
[00:40:32] [SPEAKER_20]: Nah, bro.
[00:40:34] [SPEAKER_07]: Oh, let's see that we can actually see him blinking.
[00:40:39] [SPEAKER_08]: In the vacuum.
[00:40:40] [SPEAKER_08]: Yeah.
[00:40:41] [SPEAKER_07]: How close is he if we could see that like, oh God.
[00:40:44] [SPEAKER_11]: Yeah.
[00:40:45] [SPEAKER_11]: This is this kind of timidly walking up to you like the
[00:40:50] [SPEAKER_11]: outfit that they wear is nothing but rags.
[00:40:53] [SPEAKER_18]: Hey, can you guys help me with this?
[00:40:55] [SPEAKER_18]: I got I think I got another role in the back my back pocket.
[00:40:58] [SPEAKER_18]: You grab it.
[00:40:58] [SPEAKER_20]: I think we have more pressing matters right now.
[00:41:01] [SPEAKER_20]: Stop moving right now.
[00:41:03] [SPEAKER_20]: That gun is on.
[00:41:04] [SPEAKER_18]: What are you talking about? Oh.
[00:41:07] [SPEAKER_20]: Who are you?
[00:41:09] [SPEAKER_20]: What are you doing here?
[00:41:10] [SPEAKER_20]: How are you here?
[00:41:14] [SPEAKER_11]: There's this guy stops walking.
[00:41:18] [SPEAKER_11]: Of course, I mean, I can say he was slowly not like crouched,
[00:41:21] [SPEAKER_11]: not ready to pounce nothing like like that.
[00:41:24] [SPEAKER_11]: Just slowly stepping towards you.
[00:41:26] [SPEAKER_18]: He better not be talking because like he's in vacuum.
[00:41:29] [SPEAKER_18]: He can't talk.
[00:41:30] [SPEAKER_18]: There's no air to talk.
[00:41:32] [SPEAKER_20]: Right.
[00:41:33] [SPEAKER_20]: So he couldn't even hear me.
[00:41:35] [SPEAKER_20]: He would just see me have my hand out.
[00:41:37] [SPEAKER_20]: At least he's raising my gun at him.
[00:41:40] [SPEAKER_10]: I'm like, did I hear that right?
[00:41:45] [SPEAKER_11]: What? I raised my gun at him.
[00:41:49] [SPEAKER_18]: Yes.
[00:41:51] [SPEAKER_18]: Oh, you doomed us all, Josh.
[00:41:53] [SPEAKER_11]: I mean, oh, he turns and he turns and just starts running.
[00:41:58] [SPEAKER_11]: You notice he's running where the vines are.
[00:42:00] [SPEAKER_11]: Just like right on top of them.
[00:42:03] [SPEAKER_11]: I mean, he just like as soon as you kind of raise your gun on him,
[00:42:06] [SPEAKER_11]: he like faster than you thought he was.
[00:42:07] [SPEAKER_11]: He could possibly move in a shape that he is.
[00:42:09] [SPEAKER_11]: He just starts running away, right?
[00:42:13] [SPEAKER_18]: Hang on. Hang on.
[00:42:15] [SPEAKER_18]: Again, I need to clarify no gravity.
[00:42:19] [SPEAKER_18]: And he's running.
[00:42:22] [SPEAKER_18]: That's just me.
[00:42:26] [SPEAKER_18]: I I you see, I'm like probably like kind of
[00:42:32] [SPEAKER_18]: I might be like rubbing against my forearms or something like that.
[00:42:36] [SPEAKER_18]: Like I need a hit or something.
[00:42:39] [SPEAKER_04]: Like stop working.
[00:42:41] [SPEAKER_18]: I'm really I'm really like kind of wanting to a
[00:42:44] [SPEAKER_18]: an a rash, some a rash right about now.
[00:42:46] [SPEAKER_10]: Yeah.
[00:42:48] [SPEAKER_18]: A rash is apparently a space drug and space drug
[00:42:52] [SPEAKER_18]: that my character is addicted to.
[00:42:56] [SPEAKER_18]: Yeah, that's right.
[00:42:58] [SPEAKER_11]: So yeah, if nobody's going to stop him, he just
[00:43:01] [SPEAKER_11]: well, you all decide to talk.
[00:43:04] [SPEAKER_20]: Uh.
[00:43:06] [SPEAKER_20]: And you want to go chase after that guy?
[00:43:08] [SPEAKER_20]: Sure as hell don't.
[00:43:11] [SPEAKER_20]: Nope. Cool.
[00:43:12] [SPEAKER_16]: Let's get the fuck out of here.
[00:43:14] [SPEAKER_16]: Get back to the ship.
[00:43:15] [SPEAKER_16]: Let's go.
[00:43:16] [SPEAKER_16]: Fuck this money.
[00:43:17] [SPEAKER_18]: Well, let's get to this.
[00:43:18] [SPEAKER_18]: Let's get to the other ship.
[00:43:20] [SPEAKER_18]: We're close. Yeah.
[00:43:21] [SPEAKER_16]: Yeah.
[00:43:22] [SPEAKER_18]: Let's go.
[00:43:23] [SPEAKER_18]: Let's let's let's we'll put a pin on that for now.
[00:43:27] [SPEAKER_18]: Well, we'll get back to that never.
[00:43:31] [SPEAKER_11]: You see him run up a flight of steps going
[00:43:34] [SPEAKER_11]: to like going to the second level.
[00:43:37] [SPEAKER_11]: And then you see him just kind of just disappear
[00:43:40] [SPEAKER_11]: around the side of the ship to the gaping hole.
[00:43:43] [SPEAKER_18]: And he's running as if there is gravity, right?
[00:43:47] [SPEAKER_18]: Yeah.
[00:43:49] [SPEAKER_18]: OK, that.
[00:43:50] [SPEAKER_18]: Yeah, no, let's guys, let's let's let's go find the other ship.
[00:43:53] [SPEAKER_18]: Let's let's let's figure out if that if that's salvageable.
[00:43:55] [SPEAKER_18]: If not, let's get the fuck out of here.
[00:43:56] [SPEAKER_20]: Talk about that right now.
[00:43:57] [SPEAKER_20]: Let's just go.
[00:43:58] [SPEAKER_20]: We'll discuss how that's possible later.
[00:44:03] [SPEAKER_18]: OK, oh, we'll discuss it.
[00:44:05] [SPEAKER_18]: I will drink myself.
[00:44:06] [SPEAKER_18]: I am. Yeah, fair.
[00:44:07] [SPEAKER_18]: I am heading to the icons temple one after this.
[00:44:13] [SPEAKER_11]: Pray pray to space Jesus.
[00:44:15] [SPEAKER_18]: I am definitely praying to the gambler after this
[00:44:18] [SPEAKER_18]: if I make it out of this because.
[00:44:21] [SPEAKER_11]: Yeah. OK, so.
[00:44:24] [SPEAKER_11]: No, no, no, you're fine. You're fine.
[00:44:26] [SPEAKER_11]: I totally fine.
[00:44:29] [SPEAKER_11]: So you're going to make like so.
[00:44:30] [SPEAKER_11]: You just watch this guy disappear around the side of the ship,
[00:44:34] [SPEAKER_11]: like I said, just like.
[00:44:36] [SPEAKER_18]: Do we have cameras like in our suits at all?
[00:44:39] [SPEAKER_18]: Like, do we record?
[00:44:40] [SPEAKER_18]: Do we record that shit or is that just something we just saw?
[00:44:43] [SPEAKER_18]: And we're going to like.
[00:44:46] [SPEAKER_18]: Like, are we telling people about this?
[00:44:48] [SPEAKER_11]: It's back into the main ship.
[00:44:51] [SPEAKER_11]: So I mean, do you have an it's like an aliens.
[00:44:54] [SPEAKER_11]: You have like they had the headsets and all that.
[00:44:56] [SPEAKER_11]: Like, obviously, you know, there's vitals and things like that
[00:44:59] [SPEAKER_11]: being recorded, but at the same time, like you can't play back or any
[00:45:03] [SPEAKER_18]: environmental set. I do have environmental sensors in my my gear.
[00:45:07] [SPEAKER_20]: There is a camera, but it's all live.
[00:45:10] [SPEAKER_20]: There's no recording of it. Yeah.
[00:45:13] [SPEAKER_11]: That's recording.
[00:45:14] [SPEAKER_04]: You just see all the heart rate spike.
[00:45:17] [SPEAKER_04]: Spike. Yeah.
[00:45:18] [SPEAKER_11]: Well, it's not just sad.
[00:45:19] [SPEAKER_11]: I mean, you got to hit the shoulder kind of camp to.
[00:45:22] [SPEAKER_11]: OK. Like, I mean, this is
[00:45:24] [SPEAKER_11]: this isn't the first time you all went off a ship.
[00:45:27] [SPEAKER_11]: Usually, you know, it's just it's use a diverse and when the other
[00:45:31] [SPEAKER_11]: characters that weren't picked, that would go in and, you know,
[00:45:34] [SPEAKER_11]: you've received direction and stuff like that.
[00:45:36] [SPEAKER_11]: I mean, you guys aren't mercenaries and whatnot.
[00:45:38] [SPEAKER_11]: It's just usually, you know, routine maintenance or something
[00:45:42] [SPEAKER_11]: like that on the outside of the ship.
[00:45:43] [SPEAKER_11]: But yeah, you pretty much got that and you're feeding it in,
[00:45:46] [SPEAKER_11]: but it's inaccessible to you right now.
[00:45:48] [SPEAKER_20]: Assuming the other two characters are on the ship still, right?
[00:45:51] [SPEAKER_20]: Or do they just not exist in this universe?
[00:45:53] [SPEAKER_20]: Because no.
[00:45:54] [SPEAKER_18]: They're currently short yet.
[00:45:56] [SPEAKER_18]: I kind of see it as like Schrodinger's crew.
[00:45:59] [SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, the Schrodinger's crew there.
[00:46:01] [SPEAKER_11]: I think we kind of when the beginning, we would have said,
[00:46:03] [SPEAKER_11]: I wanted to think we said like maybe it's just you guys
[00:46:06] [SPEAKER_11]: and not the rest of them.
[00:46:07] [SPEAKER_11]: Maybe they're elsewhere.
[00:46:08] [SPEAKER_11]: We'll say that they were they took shortly, even you all went
[00:46:11] [SPEAKER_11]: from one one last job just to kind of, you know,
[00:46:14] [SPEAKER_11]: pad your pockets a bit more.
[00:46:16] [SPEAKER_17]: Yeah. OK.
[00:46:18] [SPEAKER_11]: So looking at your map, so like I said, you were for kind
[00:46:22] [SPEAKER_11]: of a larger area, you can make your way back out.
[00:46:26] [SPEAKER_11]: You're wanting to make it towards two.
[00:46:30] [SPEAKER_11]: So like it's right just right next to that.
[00:46:32] [SPEAKER_11]: And you know and so quick and pace holding,
[00:46:36] [SPEAKER_18]: gripping onto my power.
[00:46:37] [SPEAKER_18]: Make sure to walk carefully.
[00:46:40] [SPEAKER_11]: Yep.
[00:46:41] [SPEAKER_11]: You felt you felt a little safe.
[00:46:43] [SPEAKER_11]: I mean, you didn't feel safer.
[00:46:44] [SPEAKER_11]: But when you went back into the compression chamber,
[00:46:47] [SPEAKER_11]: you know, it closes slowly.
[00:46:50] [SPEAKER_11]: It seems to take a whole lot longer.
[00:46:52] [SPEAKER_11]: You don't know if that's in your head or if that is actually
[00:46:56] [SPEAKER_11]: the machine like trying like hell to, you know,
[00:47:00] [SPEAKER_11]: maybe the processors or something down who knows.
[00:47:02] [SPEAKER_11]: But you just feel very vulnerable for a while
[00:47:04] [SPEAKER_11]: until that second set of doors opens into the
[00:47:08] [SPEAKER_11]: more the atrium kind of area there.
[00:47:10] [SPEAKER_11]: Every question and yeah.
[00:47:11] [SPEAKER_20]: Question before we continue with this.
[00:47:13] [SPEAKER_20]: I wanted to ask this when we were out there,
[00:47:14] [SPEAKER_20]: but in regards to what the the K.I. said,
[00:47:18] [SPEAKER_20]: it was almost sounding like they were attacked
[00:47:22] [SPEAKER_20]: and something happened and then they have to deploy
[00:47:25] [SPEAKER_20]: the quote unquote flower as the only way to save themselves.
[00:47:29] [SPEAKER_20]: So the actual damaged area.
[00:47:32] [SPEAKER_20]: Is there any like score marks or weapons fire
[00:47:35] [SPEAKER_20]: to or anything like that to show like they were attacked?
[00:47:38] [SPEAKER_20]: Or is it just it's broken and there's no real evidence?
[00:47:46] [SPEAKER_11]: The evidence that you have is from the actual
[00:47:50] [SPEAKER_11]: shape of the metal and it looks like it's an explosion from outside.
[00:47:54] [SPEAKER_11]: So everything goes in kind of stuff like that.
[00:47:57] [SPEAKER_11]: So yeah, I think I may have mentioned beforehand.
[00:47:59] [SPEAKER_11]: I can't recall.
[00:48:01] [SPEAKER_11]: But yeah, so it is obviously something
[00:48:05] [SPEAKER_11]: hit from the outside.
[00:48:08] [SPEAKER_11]: Gotcha.
[00:48:12] [SPEAKER_18]: Yeah, so yeah, once that once we're in the safety
[00:48:15] [SPEAKER_18]: of the second seal.
[00:48:20] [SPEAKER_18]: I am just kind of pushing us along with my sledge.
[00:48:24] [SPEAKER_18]: Like, let's go. Let's go.
[00:48:25] [SPEAKER_18]: Hey, don't tell me.
[00:48:29] [SPEAKER_18]: Yeah, let's get to the let's get to see it.
[00:48:31] [SPEAKER_18]: Let's see the damage of that shuttle.
[00:48:32] [SPEAKER_18]: See if it's if it's salvageable.
[00:48:34] [SPEAKER_18]: If we have if we can.
[00:48:35] [SPEAKER_20]: The main reason we're going there is also
[00:48:37] [SPEAKER_20]: there might still be people on the shuttle
[00:48:40] [SPEAKER_20]: because people out there hopefully they're not like that guy.
[00:48:43] [SPEAKER_18]: Hopefully they're not like that guy.
[00:48:44] [SPEAKER_20]: What are you talking about?
[00:48:45] [SPEAKER_20]: We did not see some weird guy.
[00:48:47] [SPEAKER_18]: Yeah, I don't know.
[00:48:48] [SPEAKER_18]: Yeah, I don't know what I'm talking about right now.
[00:48:50] [SPEAKER_18]: And guys, I need I mean, yeah, apparently you're talking crazy.
[00:48:53] [SPEAKER_18]: Right.
[00:48:53] [SPEAKER_18]: Right.
[00:48:54] [SPEAKER_18]: Stop.
[00:48:54] [SPEAKER_14]: There's your head.
[00:48:57] [SPEAKER_11]: So you're going to head never.
[00:48:59] [SPEAKER_11]: It's our West.
[00:49:01] [SPEAKER_11]: So you take a tour.
[00:49:02] [SPEAKER_11]: You take one of the passages to the West and the ship.
[00:49:06] [SPEAKER_11]: Walking down again, you have the vines pretty much everywhere,
[00:49:10] [SPEAKER_11]: more so on the ground, but somewhere on on the walls,
[00:49:14] [SPEAKER_11]: nothing really on the ceiling and whatnot.
[00:49:15] [SPEAKER_11]: And as you get closer to the signs indicating the airlock,
[00:49:20] [SPEAKER_11]: you also it's kind of funny that you mentioned
[00:49:25] [SPEAKER_11]: Scorchmarks and Pockmarks because
[00:49:29] [SPEAKER_11]: pretty much.
[00:49:31] [SPEAKER_11]: There's a passage going straight ahead that goes past it.
[00:49:33] [SPEAKER_11]: We say you're to if you you hung a you went south.
[00:49:37] [SPEAKER_11]: At a certain point, you would go toward the space station.
[00:49:40] [SPEAKER_11]: I mean, the space station is the airlock,
[00:49:41] [SPEAKER_11]: but you can kind of see it this joining section.
[00:49:44] [SPEAKER_11]: There is the wall is parked,
[00:49:47] [SPEAKER_11]: a park marked with
[00:49:50] [SPEAKER_11]: like dents and blaster fire.
[00:49:53] [SPEAKER_19]: OK.
[00:49:56] [SPEAKER_11]: So that is pretty much there.
[00:49:59] [SPEAKER_11]: So you can either so you're kind of at a fork.
[00:50:02] [SPEAKER_11]: You can either go left or go.
[00:50:04] [SPEAKER_11]: I'm thinking left if you're facing West,
[00:50:07] [SPEAKER_11]: but you can either go down to two or you could go up to.
[00:50:11] [SPEAKER_11]: I mean, you can keep on the passage down.
[00:50:14] [SPEAKER_20]: Basically two, three or eight.
[00:50:16] [SPEAKER_20]: If we just keep going forward and just ignore the airlock.
[00:50:19] [SPEAKER_11]: Yeah. Yeah.
[00:50:20] [SPEAKER_20]: Two, three or I think we go to the airlock
[00:50:22] [SPEAKER_20]: because that was our primary objective is to check out the ship.
[00:50:26] [SPEAKER_17]: Yeah, I say that too.
[00:50:28] [SPEAKER_18]: The airlock is so are the vines getting more dense
[00:50:34] [SPEAKER_18]: the closer we get to that airlock or that airlock?
[00:50:41] [SPEAKER_18]: No. OK.
[00:50:43] [SPEAKER_11]: The other.
[00:50:44] [SPEAKER_18]: I don't appreciate that that pause there.
[00:50:47] [SPEAKER_20]: So if I did not appreciate that silence,
[00:50:49] [SPEAKER_18]: I said I didn't.
[00:50:51] [SPEAKER_18]: I meant I didn't.
[00:50:52] [SPEAKER_18]: Oh, OK. Pause.
[00:50:54] [SPEAKER_18]: Yeah.
[00:50:58] [SPEAKER_11]: So it's it's getting denser,
[00:51:00] [SPEAKER_11]: but not toward the airlock more toward the going toward eight.
[00:51:04] [SPEAKER_02]: OK. OK.
[00:51:08] [SPEAKER_11]: So you turn.
[00:51:11] [SPEAKER_11]: Slowly make your way there.
[00:51:13] [SPEAKER_11]: And.
[00:51:15] [SPEAKER_11]: It's kind of the same setup as what you walked out of before
[00:51:18] [SPEAKER_11]: at the other airlock.
[00:51:20] [SPEAKER_11]: As you make your way down the hallway to the open area
[00:51:25] [SPEAKER_11]: to where you go through pressurization and stuff like that.
[00:51:28] [SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, there's some shit that's went down here.
[00:51:30] [SPEAKER_11]: Definitely.
[00:51:32] [SPEAKER_11]: You see there's a body kind of honestly,
[00:51:38] [SPEAKER_11]: it's kind of it's part in the floor, but also part of the vines
[00:51:42] [SPEAKER_11]: that seem like they've wrapped or it's wrapped.
[00:51:45] [SPEAKER_11]: They wrapped themselves around it.
[00:51:47] [SPEAKER_11]: The person's in an exosuit hanging limp.
[00:51:51] [SPEAKER_11]: The head's down and you have
[00:51:56] [SPEAKER_11]: like kind of grown over where the doors are to go into the airlock.
[00:52:02] [SPEAKER_11]: I mean, you could try to cut your way and whatnot.
[00:52:03] [SPEAKER_11]: So there's a body kind of strung up, not
[00:52:06] [SPEAKER_11]: in a Jesus Christ pose, but almost like kind of a knee,
[00:52:10] [SPEAKER_11]: knees on the ground, like, but last out around the chest
[00:52:13] [SPEAKER_11]: and kind of held back with the head and arms something forward.
[00:52:17] [SPEAKER_11]: And that's right where the door is.
[00:52:19] [SPEAKER_18]: Lest a Jesus pose, a more of a Tebow pose.
[00:52:22] [SPEAKER_18]: Just like taking the knee.
[00:52:25] [SPEAKER_11]: Oh, Tim Tebow.
[00:52:27] [SPEAKER_11]: But yeah, so and again, there's the walls are the walls are
[00:52:30] [SPEAKER_11]: pockmarked.
[00:52:32] [SPEAKER_11]: And if you want to get through the if you want to get to the ship,
[00:52:35] [SPEAKER_11]: you're going to have to kind of move the body and probably.
[00:52:40] [SPEAKER_18]: Sorry. So I was just looking at
[00:52:44] [SPEAKER_18]: so that was me accidentally speaking.
[00:52:47] [SPEAKER_18]: Thing aloud.
[00:52:48] [SPEAKER_18]: I was like, power sledge do.
[00:52:51] [SPEAKER_20]: Wax things real good.
[00:52:53] [SPEAKER_20]: The question.
[00:52:54] [SPEAKER_18]: Yeah, I'm just trying to see what exactly a power sledge is in this game.
[00:52:58] [SPEAKER_18]: Question.
[00:52:59] [SPEAKER_11]: So you see here, let me add a bit detail.
[00:53:03] [SPEAKER_11]: So as you, like I said, you kind of stand there, the light of your head lamps
[00:53:08] [SPEAKER_11]: which is illuminating this.
[00:53:11] [SPEAKER_11]: There's the floating to try to the poem like stuff kind of feeling the passageway,
[00:53:17] [SPEAKER_11]: not like choking it off.
[00:53:19] [SPEAKER_11]: But you know, it.
[00:53:21] [SPEAKER_11]: Almost it's kind of like those, you know, how you get those little floaters
[00:53:24] [SPEAKER_11]: in your eyes sometime you look and there's like that little blobby kind
[00:53:26] [SPEAKER_11]: of thing and stuff like that.
[00:53:27] [SPEAKER_11]: So it's just like a bunch of that going past your not a bunch,
[00:53:30] [SPEAKER_11]: but going past your vision.
[00:53:33] [SPEAKER_11]: But you do notice that the the growth in the vines
[00:53:38] [SPEAKER_11]: is very beat down upon.
[00:53:40] [SPEAKER_11]: So you get the impression that whatever happened here, there were several bodies
[00:53:46] [SPEAKER_11]: and you know, so it's kind of keep us out in the middle of a field
[00:53:50] [SPEAKER_11]: or walking around and you can kind of see where like stuff has been kind of beat down.
[00:53:56] [SPEAKER_12]: OK.
[00:53:58] [SPEAKER_11]: Though it's on the ground again, me it's vines on the ground.
[00:54:01] [SPEAKER_11]: I mean, it honestly stuff don't really go past your ankle.
[00:54:06] [SPEAKER_11]: But you can tell that there was there was a lot of movement here at one point.
[00:54:10] [SPEAKER_18]: And it kicked it up until I kind of a knee high me asthma.
[00:54:15] [SPEAKER_20]: Yeah. Great.
[00:54:18] [SPEAKER_20]: So there's the couple of bodies that are
[00:54:21] [SPEAKER_20]: like wrapped up and strung up.
[00:54:23] [SPEAKER_20]: Are there any weapons laying around?
[00:54:25] [SPEAKER_11]: What just just one?
[00:54:26] [SPEAKER_20]: Oh, I thought you said there was two.
[00:54:27] [SPEAKER_20]: Yeah, just the one.
[00:54:29] [SPEAKER_11]: No, I'm sorry.
[00:54:30] [SPEAKER_11]: That just it's just one.
[00:54:32] [SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, right there on the ground.
[00:54:35] [SPEAKER_11]: You see I'm looking at what the weapon is.
[00:54:38] [SPEAKER_11]: It's the the assault rifle.
[00:54:41] [SPEAKER_11]: I'm trying to give you the name here.
[00:54:43] [SPEAKER_11]: Give me a second.
[00:54:44] [SPEAKER_18]: Now, is it a thermal weapon or?
[00:54:47] [SPEAKER_18]: Or is it a is an accelerator weapon or a Vulcan weapon?
[00:54:51] [SPEAKER_18]: Sorry too much.
[00:54:51] [SPEAKER_18]: I know this game.
[00:54:54] [SPEAKER_18]: Well, Vulcan weapons have fired tiny rockets.
[00:54:57] [SPEAKER_18]: Accelerator weapons are magnetically accelerated
[00:54:59] [SPEAKER_18]: and then thermals are fire slugs of over of superheated matter.
[00:55:03] [SPEAKER_20]: I have a Vulcan pistol.
[00:55:05] [SPEAKER_20]: Nice.
[00:55:06] [SPEAKER_20]: Oh, so I technically have a real gun pistol
[00:55:08] [SPEAKER_20]: because mine is accelerated.
[00:55:11] [SPEAKER_11]: Well, and then I have it's a it's a carbine
[00:55:14] [SPEAKER_11]: Legion air carving.
[00:55:16] [SPEAKER_11]: So assault rifle style.
[00:55:20] [SPEAKER_17]: OK, the car is a legion.
[00:55:23] [SPEAKER_20]: Oh, you don't get it now.
[00:55:28] [SPEAKER_18]: OK, that has a built in great weight.
[00:55:30] [SPEAKER_11]: The weeds grow over it, Josh.
[00:55:31] [SPEAKER_11]: Go fuck yourself.
[00:55:32] [SPEAKER_18]: Guys, guys, we're cool.
[00:55:34] [SPEAKER_18]: The Legion air carbine has a built in grenade launcher.
[00:55:37] [SPEAKER_20]: Is that the one that's there?
[00:55:40] [SPEAKER_18]: Yeah, you said you said the Legion air
[00:55:42] [SPEAKER_18]: grenade, the Legion carbine.
[00:55:46] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, automatic door behind the close.
[00:55:50] [SPEAKER_11]: No, I mean, well, the passageway is open.
[00:55:53] [SPEAKER_11]: There's a door to the airlock.
[00:55:54] [SPEAKER_11]: You've got to kind of cut your way around it
[00:55:56] [SPEAKER_11]: and move the body out of the way.
[00:55:57] [SPEAKER_04]: I meant the way we came because if we're going
[00:56:00] [SPEAKER_04]: to use a grenade launcher and then close space,
[00:56:02] [SPEAKER_20]: someone said we're using the grenade launcher.
[00:56:04] [SPEAKER_04]: It just has a grenade launcher.
[00:56:07] [SPEAKER_18]: OK, so also the Legion air is a Vulcan weapon
[00:56:10] [SPEAKER_18]: according to this.
[00:56:11] [SPEAKER_18]: So sorry, I have the book in hand.
[00:56:13] [SPEAKER_18]: I'm like standing up and like I'm moving around my room
[00:56:15] [SPEAKER_18]: as I'm doing this. Oh, it's fine.
[00:56:16] [SPEAKER_11]: I mean, that's why I got I got foundry open right now.
[00:56:19] [SPEAKER_11]: I'm just sitting here like having through very cordy.
[00:56:22] [SPEAKER_20]: You know, OK, so either way,
[00:56:24] [SPEAKER_20]: because I don't know what the hell is going on.
[00:56:26] [SPEAKER_20]: And it looks like these plants have been
[00:56:28] [SPEAKER_20]: a threat here and have at least killed one person.
[00:56:31] [SPEAKER_20]: And there's a God knows what in the other room.
[00:56:36] [SPEAKER_20]: I'm going to try to pick up the sorrowful
[00:56:37] [SPEAKER_20]: because it's better than my little pistol.
[00:56:41] [SPEAKER_18]: I've got your back.
[00:56:43] [SPEAKER_18]: Like ready to smash any any hands or arms
[00:56:46] [SPEAKER_18]: that try to grab at you.
[00:56:52] [SPEAKER_18]: Did he get to does he get it unscathed?
[00:56:55] [SPEAKER_11]: Adam. Oh, I mean, you're grabbing it.
[00:56:58] [SPEAKER_18]: I don't wait for it.
[00:57:01] [SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, no, I don't I don't roll.
[00:57:04] [SPEAKER_11]: It's all you guys.
[00:57:05] [SPEAKER_18]: It's a fair facing.
[00:57:07] [SPEAKER_18]: That'd be cool.
[00:57:08] [SPEAKER_09]: Mm hmm.
[00:57:09] [SPEAKER_11]: So I'm going to tell you this, like.
[00:57:12] [SPEAKER_11]: Give me a give me a word of shit, guys.
[00:57:19] [SPEAKER_11]: What over again?
[00:57:21] [SPEAKER_11]: Does the the the observation observation shit?
[00:57:25] [SPEAKER_11]: I need to get this character.
[00:57:26] [SPEAKER_11]: She goes.
[00:57:27] [SPEAKER_18]: Yes, the observation.
[00:57:28] [SPEAKER_18]: The observation plus wits.
[00:57:29] [SPEAKER_11]: Yeah.
[00:57:30] [SPEAKER_18]: So you're actually in real dice.
[00:57:34] [SPEAKER_18]: Like physical dice.
[00:57:35] [SPEAKER_18]: And then I'm going to be using my not Coriolis,
[00:57:41] [SPEAKER_18]: but a similar the New Year Zero.
[00:57:44] [SPEAKER_15]: That's got three sixes.
[00:57:46] [SPEAKER_18]: Oh, you with easy roller dice.
[00:57:49] [SPEAKER_18]: I got a one.
[00:57:52] [SPEAKER_18]: And it failed.
[00:57:53] [SPEAKER_18]: It failed me.
[00:57:54] [SPEAKER_18]: I got no sixes on my five days.
[00:57:56] [SPEAKER_20]: It's easy to roll, but that doesn't mean they roll good.
[00:58:01] [SPEAKER_11]: Oh, did anyone did he want to see six?
[00:58:06] [SPEAKER_11]: You got three sixes.
[00:58:08] [SPEAKER_11]: Right.
[00:58:08] [SPEAKER_02]: He sees the shit.
[00:58:09] [SPEAKER_02]: I do.
[00:58:12] [SPEAKER_11]: All right, so as he's reaching for the gun,
[00:58:16] [SPEAKER_11]: you reach down, grab it, Zeb.
[00:58:19] [SPEAKER_11]: Port, there's a little bit of resistance.
[00:58:22] [SPEAKER_11]: You kind of tug.
[00:58:23] [SPEAKER_11]: It's like you get a little nervous because for a second,
[00:58:27] [SPEAKER_11]: you know, you're kind of you're great.
[00:58:29] [SPEAKER_11]: You're trying to grab it, but like the stock of it's more
[00:58:31] [SPEAKER_11]: held kind of firmly like something that's like the growth
[00:58:34] [SPEAKER_11]: is kind of overtook it a little bit.
[00:58:35] [SPEAKER_11]: And you start pulling the barrel kind of toward the gun
[00:58:39] [SPEAKER_11]: starts coming toward you like center mass.
[00:58:42] [SPEAKER_11]: And you're like, you know, you're kind of like, oops.
[00:58:44] [SPEAKER_11]: And you're kind of notion that and what you notice,
[00:58:48] [SPEAKER_11]: Dr. Wana is as he's wrestling with that
[00:58:51] [SPEAKER_11]: and he eventually does get it free is that there's a flashing
[00:58:57] [SPEAKER_11]: light going on on the side of the helmet.
[00:59:00] [SPEAKER_17]: Wait, didn't Dr.
[00:59:01] [SPEAKER_18]: Wana grab the I thought you were.
[00:59:04] [SPEAKER_18]: I was standing behind her with like with the power sledge,
[00:59:08] [SPEAKER_18]: ready to ready to crack anything.
[00:59:10] [SPEAKER_20]: I think you misunderstood when you said I got don't worry,
[00:59:12] [SPEAKER_20]: I got you as in like, I'll get it.
[00:59:14] [SPEAKER_20]: It doesn't matter either way. Yeah. Yeah.
[00:59:16] [SPEAKER_11]: OK. Yeah.
[00:59:19] [SPEAKER_11]: So you're pulling you're pulling on the gun.
[00:59:23] [SPEAKER_11]: Doc, I'm going to rephrase that then.
[00:59:25] [SPEAKER_11]: So you're pulling on the gun, Doc.
[00:59:28] [SPEAKER_11]: And while you're doing that, you're focusing on it.
[00:59:31] [SPEAKER_11]: And then that's when that light catches your eye.
[00:59:34] [SPEAKER_11]: Like you weren't seeing it.
[00:59:35] [SPEAKER_11]: It's kind of, you know, it's like a sun.
[00:59:37] [SPEAKER_11]: I wouldn't say I could sunbeam, but you're looking down
[00:59:40] [SPEAKER_11]: and all of a sudden there's a flash of light out of the periphery.
[00:59:44] [SPEAKER_11]: And then when you look up,
[00:59:48] [SPEAKER_11]: you look up the helmet has raised up
[00:59:51] [SPEAKER_11]: and there's a flashing message light going on it.
[00:59:53] [SPEAKER_11]: And you just see the dead eyes
[00:59:56] [SPEAKER_11]: of this person staring at you.
[00:59:59] [SPEAKER_11]: And they open their mouth to scream and
[01:00:03] [SPEAKER_11]: you see like little vines to start snaking out of their mouth.
[01:00:08] [SPEAKER_11]: And it just kind of feels the lower part of the helmet
[01:00:10] [SPEAKER_11]: and then the body starts moving.
[01:00:13] [SPEAKER_11]: So you saw the light, which alerted you that something had changed.
[01:00:16] [SPEAKER_11]: You look up while holding the gun.
[01:00:18] [SPEAKER_11]: You have it. I'll still say you have it.
[01:00:20] [SPEAKER_11]: And this thing is looking at you
[01:00:22] [SPEAKER_11]: and is silently screaming or his mouth's open
[01:00:26] [SPEAKER_11]: and the vines are just kind of just pouring out of its mouth,
[01:00:29] [SPEAKER_11]: like thin vines, but you know, like like little ivy kind of like vines
[01:00:32] [SPEAKER_11]: that are just kind of going out of its mouth
[01:00:34] [SPEAKER_11]: and feeling the lower part of them.
[01:00:36] [SPEAKER_20]: Thin vines is not a problem.
[01:00:38] [SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, it's not fine. I mean, you just a little round up.
[01:00:41] [SPEAKER_11]: Fuck you'll kill it.
[01:00:41] [SPEAKER_11]: You feel it's fine.
[01:00:45] [SPEAKER_20]: That's not good.
[01:00:47] [SPEAKER_11]: I want you to go ahead and mark off a mind point.
[01:00:50] [SPEAKER_11]: I'm not even going to like there's not a row for this.
[01:00:52] [SPEAKER_11]: I mean, you look up something that's dead last year
[01:00:55] [SPEAKER_11]: and you're seeing something very supernatural.
[01:00:57] [SPEAKER_11]: So just go ahead.
[01:00:58] [SPEAKER_11]: It's probably not going to play effect
[01:00:59] [SPEAKER_11]: because you don't really suffer damage from mind points
[01:01:02] [SPEAKER_11]: until you hit zero and you just kind of hit a.
[01:01:05] [SPEAKER_11]: It's basically Chris is like a crack, I think.
[01:01:07] [SPEAKER_18]: Oh, OK, yeah.
[01:01:08] [SPEAKER_18]: Like in red markets, the cracks.
[01:01:11] [SPEAKER_11]: Yeah. So you're.
[01:01:13] [SPEAKER_11]: So how do you react to seeing this?
[01:01:16] [SPEAKER_18]: Well, yeah, doc, how are you guys?
[01:01:18] [SPEAKER_18]: I'm I'm staring at like I'm like away from it.
[01:01:21] [SPEAKER_11]: So he said, no, you're looking at her.
[01:01:23] [SPEAKER_18]: Yeah, I'm looking at her.
[01:01:24] [SPEAKER_11]: You're not looking at her surrounding.
[01:01:26] [SPEAKER_11]: And I don't even know what Nima's doing.
[01:01:31] [SPEAKER_20]: OK, so you're asking me what I'm doing?
[01:01:34] [SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, I mean, you've got the gun.
[01:01:36] [SPEAKER_11]: You wrestled it free and time to look up
[01:01:38] [SPEAKER_11]: and see the like solid screen with leaves.
[01:01:42] [SPEAKER_18]: Yeah, the poison ivy necromorph.
[01:01:44] [SPEAKER_20]: Yeah, OK.
[01:01:46] [SPEAKER_20]: And this is the thing that's like directly
[01:01:48] [SPEAKER_20]: in the way of the door to get to the air lock
[01:01:50] [SPEAKER_20]: to get to the ship.
[01:01:53] [SPEAKER_20]: Yeah, OK.
[01:01:54] [SPEAKER_20]: Um.
[01:01:56] [SPEAKER_18]: It does have an under slug and great legend.
[01:01:59] [SPEAKER_20]: In a very total party wipe immediately.
[01:02:04] [SPEAKER_20]: OK, I.
[01:02:10] [SPEAKER_20]: Without horrifying, this fucking thing is
[01:02:12] [SPEAKER_20]: and it's like screaming and shit.
[01:02:14] [SPEAKER_20]: I'm tempted to just say,
[01:02:15] [SPEAKER_20]: oh, fucking shoot it because it's not human.
[01:02:24] [SPEAKER_20]: And clearly, like this plant life
[01:02:27] [SPEAKER_20]: has overtaken this entire place and killed
[01:02:30] [SPEAKER_20]: or returned everyone in one way or another.
[01:02:35] [SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, I mean, if you got anything to shoot it,
[01:02:38] [SPEAKER_11]: like go for it, man.
[01:02:39] [SPEAKER_11]: Like I mean, this is like I said, you're kind of.
[01:02:43] [SPEAKER_11]: By the way, I'm deviating quite a bit from as written, but.
[01:02:49] [SPEAKER_18]: Yeah, you do have a brand new legionary carbine there.
[01:02:53] [SPEAKER_18]: Yes, I do.
[01:02:54] [SPEAKER_20]: Um.
[01:02:55] [SPEAKER_20]: Man, I wonder if it can hear us if this is like a.
[01:03:01] [SPEAKER_20]: Independence Day situation with the dude being puppeted, though.
[01:03:05] [SPEAKER_09]: Release me now.
[01:03:07] [SPEAKER_11]: So I am it's starting to raise up.
[01:03:12] [SPEAKER_20]: I'm going to try to talk to it first and just say
[01:03:15] [SPEAKER_20]: we're not here to hurt anyone as I'm like backing up with these all are.
[01:03:19] [SPEAKER_01]: Wait, what are you talking? Who are you talking about?
[01:03:22] [SPEAKER_03]: What? Oh, guns up.
[01:03:24] [SPEAKER_03]: Don't shoot it.
[01:03:24] [SPEAKER_03]: That's my reaction to it because I've got my back to you guys.
[01:03:26] [SPEAKER_03]: What?
[01:03:27] [SPEAKER_18]: Hammer is like ready to hammer is like ready to go
[01:03:30] [SPEAKER_18]: when you when you stop me or when you when you say hold up.
[01:03:36] [SPEAKER_11]: Gosh, your back soon.
[01:03:37] [SPEAKER_11]: Why don't you give me an awareness check, which would be the wits and
[01:03:40] [SPEAKER_18]: I already did.
[01:03:41] [SPEAKER_18]: You see, I stepped back and like bump into him
[01:03:44] [SPEAKER_18]: or into into her.
[01:03:46] [SPEAKER_04]: I'm watching the way we came.
[01:03:48] [SPEAKER_18]: Yeah. Yeah.
[01:03:50] [SPEAKER_18]: See, I bump into you as I step take a step back or something.
[01:03:53] [SPEAKER_18]: Oh, shit.
[01:03:56] [SPEAKER_11]: Give me an observation chair.
[01:03:58] [SPEAKER_20]: Neema, I said zero.
[01:04:00] [SPEAKER_11]: Do you know?
[01:04:04] [SPEAKER_20]: He's whispering.
[01:04:05] [SPEAKER_20]: He said zero, I believe.
[01:04:07] [SPEAKER_20]: I'm not whispering.
[01:04:09] [SPEAKER_20]: That's the thing.
[01:04:10] [SPEAKER_11]: Adam's just down to zero.
[01:04:12] [SPEAKER_17]: So you got no.
[01:04:13] [SPEAKER_17]: I got no hits.
[01:04:14] [SPEAKER_01]: I rule the one or two and three.
[01:04:17] [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, shit.
[01:04:18] [SPEAKER_11]: I felt like it always.
[01:04:19] [SPEAKER_11]: You could always give me a darkness point and put me up to four.
[01:04:22] [SPEAKER_11]: I'm going to go ahead and spend some darkness points and say, Josh, what you see?
[01:04:32] [SPEAKER_11]: Like you feel it's.
[01:04:36] [SPEAKER_11]: You start seeing a light red glow again
[01:04:40] [SPEAKER_11]: going down the from the passageway that you came.
[01:04:44] [SPEAKER_11]: So, you know, you're in the offshoot going south
[01:04:48] [SPEAKER_11]: and you're kind of watching that corridor, you know, several feet down
[01:04:53] [SPEAKER_11]: and then you start noticing it's getting red again.
[01:04:56] [SPEAKER_11]: Of course, it's done that before it got red again.
[01:04:59] [SPEAKER_11]: But as the light from the star filters in through, you know,
[01:05:04] [SPEAKER_11]: the windows that are available and really that gap at gaping massive hole
[01:05:09] [SPEAKER_11]: and whatnot, you do you kind of the glow is red
[01:05:15] [SPEAKER_11]: and you also notice like you see a shadow
[01:05:19] [SPEAKER_11]: starting to pass like if somebody walking closer towards you from that passageway.
[01:05:25] [SPEAKER_11]: So like you're seeing the shadow through the red glow of the light from the star.
[01:05:31] [SPEAKER_15]: They dug too deep in space.
[01:05:35] [SPEAKER_11]: So I honestly, Mike, I think at this point,
[01:05:39] [SPEAKER_11]: like you're you're starting to get tense like you even even felt Zab back into you.
[01:05:43] [SPEAKER_11]: And but you're so intently staring at this and all.
[01:05:47] [SPEAKER_11]: So, yeah, I've got you've got your actions.
[01:05:51] [SPEAKER_20]: Did it respond to the body away with it?
[01:05:58] [SPEAKER_11]: Like go ahead and give me a let me look at your character sheet.
[01:06:03] [SPEAKER_11]: Hold on one second.
[01:06:05] [SPEAKER_20]: I keep a manipulation.
[01:06:07] [SPEAKER_11]: Let me open something.
[01:06:09] [SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, let me open something real quick.
[01:06:11] [SPEAKER_11]: Like I had the character sheets separate, but I closed out of them like a dip.
[01:06:14] [SPEAKER_11]: Shit. Let me open those up.
[01:06:16] [SPEAKER_18]: Could be manipulation or command like batten down down.
[01:06:21] [SPEAKER_12]: I mean, I had planned.
[01:06:23] [SPEAKER_11]: It definitely it would definitely be empathy.
[01:06:27] [SPEAKER_11]: Yeah. And I mean manipulation.
[01:06:31] [SPEAKER_11]: See what I just.
[01:06:37] [SPEAKER_11]: I'm trying to house rule.
[01:06:38] [SPEAKER_11]: I mean, I'm not trying to house rule this.
[01:06:40] [SPEAKER_11]: But the one I'm trying to see is I see nothing here that really like.
[01:06:44] [SPEAKER_11]: You're not trying to manipulate.
[01:06:45] [SPEAKER_11]: You're not trying to do anything like that.
[01:06:48] [SPEAKER_11]: But this looks.
[01:06:49] [SPEAKER_01]: Command, but sorry.
[01:06:53] [SPEAKER_11]: It's almost one night.
[01:06:55] [SPEAKER_11]: You know what's what's happened?
[01:06:57] [SPEAKER_11]: That's fine.
[01:06:58] [SPEAKER_11]: Like I said, if I had to look at a rule and start thinking like that,
[01:07:01] [SPEAKER_11]: then I that's going to bog things down.
[01:07:03] [SPEAKER_11]: So what I'm going to say is it's like you slowly like,
[01:07:07] [SPEAKER_11]: I guess you stand up.
[01:07:09] [SPEAKER_11]: But how do I guess you assume are you pulling the gun to bear on it?
[01:07:13] [SPEAKER_11]: Or are you keeping the gun just loosely in your hand kind of to the side?
[01:07:17] [SPEAKER_11]: Like when you grabbed it and kind of keep it down low.
[01:07:19] [SPEAKER_20]: But my one hand is up like with a whoa, whoa, whoa kind of situation.
[01:07:24] [SPEAKER_20]: Yeah, as I'm backing up towards the door.
[01:07:30] [SPEAKER_17]: Just FYI, sorry, Adam.
[01:07:32] [SPEAKER_18]: Yeah, not to be a lawy rules lawyer.
[01:07:36] [SPEAKER_18]: Manipulate is basically the like diplomacy
[01:07:39] [SPEAKER_18]: slash like deduction slash like charm threat.
[01:07:44] [SPEAKER_18]: So it's the intimidation plus diplomacy sort of like role.
[01:07:47] [SPEAKER_18]: And they know it's fine.
[01:07:48] [SPEAKER_18]: And like when you're doing it, when you're doing it against an opponent,
[01:07:51] [SPEAKER_18]: that you basically roll off against their manipulation.
[01:07:57] [SPEAKER_11]: So just as I was fine.
[01:07:59] [SPEAKER_11]: No, no, I mean, I need this kind of stuff.
[01:08:01] [SPEAKER_11]: I was I was not quite there.
[01:08:04] [SPEAKER_11]: All right.
[01:08:04] [SPEAKER_11]: So you hear the wrestling as it as it as it stands,
[01:08:08] [SPEAKER_11]: the vine around its chest kind of slackens and falls to the ground.
[01:08:14] [SPEAKER_11]: It stands up.
[01:08:17] [SPEAKER_11]: You kind of hear like I say, you hear the wrestling of the leaves
[01:08:20] [SPEAKER_11]: or in the violence or all that.
[01:08:22] [SPEAKER_11]: But you also hear kind of a sickly kind of like
[01:08:26] [SPEAKER_11]: kind of sound as it stands up upright.
[01:08:31] [SPEAKER_11]: And you're like, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
[01:08:34] [SPEAKER_11]: And what exactly do you say?
[01:08:36] [SPEAKER_20]: I say we're not here to hurt anyone.
[01:08:39] [SPEAKER_20]: We're just here on a rescue mission.
[01:08:41] [SPEAKER_20]: We just need to get through that door and see if any of our
[01:08:45] [SPEAKER_20]: or our friends are still on the ship.
[01:08:48] [SPEAKER_20]: That's out there.
[01:08:50] [SPEAKER_11]: It raises a hand slowly,
[01:08:53] [SPEAKER_11]: like pointing over your shoulder down the hallway back where you came.
[01:08:58] [SPEAKER_11]: It doesn't make a move to go, but it points back toward the way.
[01:09:03] [SPEAKER_11]: You glance at Nima, you see this too
[01:09:06] [SPEAKER_11]: by this point, the figure that was coming down that hallway is standing there
[01:09:10] [SPEAKER_11]: and it extends its hand going west.
[01:09:14] [SPEAKER_11]: So one of them is pointing for you to go down the way you came.
[01:09:18] [SPEAKER_11]: And the other is pointing for you like that.
[01:09:22] [SPEAKER_02]: That is it.
[01:09:23] [SPEAKER_11]: It gestures again, so it kind of puts its hand down
[01:09:27] [SPEAKER_11]: and then just points to mechanically raises his hand back up.
[01:09:33] [SPEAKER_18]: So they're it's like they're basically leading or pointing the way
[01:09:37] [SPEAKER_18]: with the corpses or maybe not corpses, we don't know.
[01:09:43] [SPEAKER_18]: That's kind of unsettling.
[01:09:45] [SPEAKER_05]: Well, but slightly.
[01:09:50] [SPEAKER_18]: What do you want to do, Akbar?
[01:09:54] [SPEAKER_19]: Ah, can I get to the door?
[01:10:03] [SPEAKER_19]: Never lose light with the door.
[01:10:08] [SPEAKER_11]: I mean, in my last point to say as this is happening,
[01:10:14] [SPEAKER_11]: you see the vines that were around it.
[01:10:17] [SPEAKER_11]: Go like kind of centralized over the door.
[01:10:20] [SPEAKER_11]: So it's like the vines are actually around your feet in the red glow
[01:10:25] [SPEAKER_11]: from the star that you mean, it's very faint here.
[01:10:28] [SPEAKER_11]: But you see it's almost like they're slithering and like you see the vines
[01:10:32] [SPEAKER_11]: to start like it's weird.
[01:10:35] [SPEAKER_11]: You've never seen a plant move, but it's like it just it's like it grows.
[01:10:38] [SPEAKER_11]: It just makes its way up kind of behind it.
[01:10:42] [SPEAKER_11]: And there's more vines in front of the door kind of blocking your way.
[01:10:45] [SPEAKER_11]: And the figure once again raises its hand and points down the hallway.
[01:10:49] [SPEAKER_18]: You know, I'm just going to take a mind hit myself.
[01:10:52] [SPEAKER_18]: So which door is being blocked?
[01:10:56] [SPEAKER_20]: The one we came in.
[01:10:57] [SPEAKER_11]: The door is blocked.
[01:10:59] [SPEAKER_11]: Yeah. And pointing back to the back to the hallway that you came
[01:11:03] [SPEAKER_11]: where the other one is standing there
[01:11:06] [SPEAKER_11]: limply pointing for you to go west.
[01:11:09] [SPEAKER_18]: OK, so we have the map.
[01:11:11] [SPEAKER_18]: Does that does the one pointing west?
[01:11:13] [SPEAKER_18]: Is that leading back to our ship?
[01:11:14] [SPEAKER_18]: Or is it trying to lead us back to the Arba the Arbitrarium?
[01:11:18] [SPEAKER_18]: Well, the same direction.
[01:11:19] [SPEAKER_19]: Are you actually in that or both?
[01:11:22] [SPEAKER_19]: Arbitrarium west.
[01:11:24] [SPEAKER_19]: Sorry, man. OK.
[01:11:26] [SPEAKER_11]: It's pointing to the Arbitrarium.
[01:11:29] [SPEAKER_19]: OK, so it's God.
[01:11:32] [SPEAKER_18]: And that's still on the way.
[01:11:34] [SPEAKER_18]: That's that's on the way back to even our ship if we were going that way.
[01:11:37] [SPEAKER_18]: Right. Yeah.
[01:11:39] [SPEAKER_11]: But I mean, I think this you all came in at the bottom.
[01:11:42] [SPEAKER_11]: So it's like if you would be going south
[01:11:45] [SPEAKER_11]: like southeast, I think, going down on the map,
[01:11:48] [SPEAKER_11]: it's pointing to that little bubble on your map
[01:11:50] [SPEAKER_11]: like or down the hallway, like where that bubble is
[01:11:53] [SPEAKER_11]: is a little further down there.
[01:11:55] [SPEAKER_18]: Suddenly, he just like pulls out of my way.
[01:11:57] [SPEAKER_18]: You need to go this way.
[01:11:59] [SPEAKER_11]: Well, it pulls out of map and turns out
[01:12:01] [SPEAKER_11]: sharpie and start circling stuff.
[01:12:03] [SPEAKER_18]: Yeah. Yeah.
[01:12:04] [SPEAKER_18]: But no, OK, so I'm just wondering because like it's like.
[01:12:09] [SPEAKER_18]: Doctor, I think we should just we should call this a loss.
[01:12:13] [SPEAKER_18]: Like.
[01:12:14] [SPEAKER_18]: I do not want to go back to the Arbitrarium
[01:12:17] [SPEAKER_18]: if that's where it wants it, if this where it wants to go.
[01:12:19] [SPEAKER_18]: That that's not going to end well.
[01:12:21] [SPEAKER_20]: I mean, we don't even know what's in there right now.
[01:12:23] [SPEAKER_20]: Uh, these guys, we don't know that.
[01:12:28] [SPEAKER_20]: OK, regardless, our lives are not worth.
[01:12:31] [SPEAKER_20]: Like if we die, we can't pay off the ship.
[01:12:34] [SPEAKER_20]: So. Yeah, let's just.
[01:12:37] [SPEAKER_09]: Back out of the room here.
[01:12:39] [SPEAKER_09]: We should have actually.
[01:12:39] [SPEAKER_09]: Down.
[01:12:44] [SPEAKER_18]: I'm not removed.
[01:12:45] [SPEAKER_18]: I'm not I'm not slacking off of my my power sledge.
[01:12:49] [SPEAKER_18]: It is staying in hand.
[01:12:50] [SPEAKER_18]: Fine.
[01:12:52] [SPEAKER_18]: Like a frigging safety blanket back out of the room for now.
[01:12:58] [SPEAKER_20]: And yeah, we'll see if it lets us out of the room normally.
[01:13:04] [SPEAKER_11]: Neymar, are you down with this?
[01:13:05] [SPEAKER_20]: Like, yeah.
[01:13:08] [SPEAKER_18]: So we need to approach the other.
[01:13:11] [SPEAKER_18]: Yeah.
[01:13:12] [SPEAKER_18]: Body.
[01:13:13] [SPEAKER_18]: OK.
[01:13:16] [SPEAKER_18]: Well, if you guys don't have anything else, I say the scene is basically us
[01:13:19] [SPEAKER_18]: slinking as a trying to slink past it by avoiding it as much as possible.
[01:13:26] [SPEAKER_18]: And basically just following where it's pointing.
[01:13:29] [SPEAKER_18]: Maybe. Yeah, hugging the wall like Scooby-Doo style.
[01:13:34] [SPEAKER_11]: So you Scooby-Doo style down the hall, you make it to that intersection
[01:13:39] [SPEAKER_11]: where you, you know, like uppercase T kind of intersection.
[01:13:43] [SPEAKER_11]: Like it's standing in a direction that you want to go.
[01:13:47] [SPEAKER_11]: And it again, just kind of raises its hand.
[01:13:49] [SPEAKER_11]: The other one slowly was following you.
[01:13:52] [SPEAKER_11]: Oh, God.
[01:13:53] [SPEAKER_11]: Limply kind of just walking, shambling, shambling slowly like a zombie space
[01:13:59] [SPEAKER_11]: zombie behind you.
[01:14:02] [SPEAKER_11]: And see, you can see the you can see it looks like it was a female in the outfit.
[01:14:08] [SPEAKER_11]: But you could like you can kind of see like the vines are like,
[01:14:13] [SPEAKER_11]: I wouldn't say obscure in the vision, but it's definitely kind of up to the
[01:14:18] [SPEAKER_11]: to the mouth.
[01:14:18] [SPEAKER_11]: I mean, to those parts of the visor there that you could see.
[01:14:22] [SPEAKER_11]: And they're twitching, they're writhing like worms in the rain.
[01:14:28] [SPEAKER_18]: God, damn it.
[01:14:31] [SPEAKER_18]: And so the one that's ahead of us, like the one that we were heading
[01:14:34] [SPEAKER_18]: toward is blocking our path from going back to ship.
[01:14:37] [SPEAKER_11]: They're wanting you to go the other way.
[01:14:39] [SPEAKER_11]: Fuck, OK.
[01:14:43] [SPEAKER_18]: Akbar, do you want us to go back?
[01:14:46] [SPEAKER_18]: Do we follow these guys?
[01:14:47] [SPEAKER_18]: Are we going to try and like push past them to get back to our ship?
[01:14:57] [SPEAKER_18]: Looks looks lovingly to that gun of yours.
[01:15:00] [SPEAKER_20]: All we know, like they're not trying to murder us.
[01:15:04] [SPEAKER_20]: Like these things are clearly it can think somewhat if it was just some
[01:15:10] [SPEAKER_20]: monstrous thing, it would just straight up attack us.
[01:15:15] [SPEAKER_18]: Or it's leading us to the whatever the fuck the flower was that that K.
[01:15:21] [SPEAKER_18]: I was talking about. Oh, I'm sure.
[01:15:24] [SPEAKER_18]: And we're going to be part of the family at some point.
[01:15:28] [SPEAKER_20]: I feel like if it wanted to take us, it would just take us there.
[01:15:33] [SPEAKER_20]: It's doing nice about it.
[01:15:35] [SPEAKER_20]: It shows up not necessarily go.
[01:15:38] [SPEAKER_20]: OK, look.
[01:15:40] [SPEAKER_20]: Well, we'll take a peek.
[01:15:43] [SPEAKER_20]: I'm genuinely curious about all this shit and what the hell is going on here?
[01:15:50] [SPEAKER_20]: Of course, it's a bad idea.
[01:15:51] [SPEAKER_20]: I know it's a bad idea.
[01:15:54] [SPEAKER_20]: But it's just take a peek and see what's going on.
[01:15:58] [SPEAKER_11]: Dave, I just got to say this real quick
[01:16:01] [SPEAKER_11]: because Chris has played in a long campaign with me over an RPX.
[01:16:06] [SPEAKER_11]: I feel kinship with you, sir, because I will like whatever it is.
[01:16:11] [SPEAKER_11]: I will pay to play so to speak.
[01:16:14] [SPEAKER_11]: And I respect that in a player like so.
[01:16:18] [SPEAKER_11]: It's the it's a consensus and I'm not saying you're walking through your team.
[01:16:21] [SPEAKER_11]: I'm not tip. I'm not tipping my hands to you.
[01:16:24] [SPEAKER_11]: Like here's what I'm saying.
[01:16:26] [SPEAKER_11]: Like you're standing there.
[01:16:28] [SPEAKER_11]: Are you going to try to manipulate?
[01:16:33] [SPEAKER_11]: Bull rush past this shambling like not shambling, but it's always just stood
[01:16:40] [SPEAKER_11]: there. It's it's dressed not in the same like not a recent outfit is another one.
[01:16:46] [SPEAKER_11]: The ones old and like the one is shambling up behind you,
[01:16:49] [SPEAKER_11]: which looks like pretty modern current tech.
[01:16:52] [SPEAKER_18]: Oh, shoot.
[01:16:53] [SPEAKER_18]: Is it do I do we recognize it as one of the what might be on the exosuits of
[01:16:58] [SPEAKER_18]: the ship that we came here to visit or to acquire?
[01:17:02] [SPEAKER_11]: Everything on this ship is a
[01:17:04] [SPEAKER_11]: crostic or acronistic in its age, except that suit.
[01:17:09] [SPEAKER_18]: Chris, I whisper that to Akbar or I keep
[01:17:15] [SPEAKER_18]: saying Akbar because that's like I think the word for captain.
[01:17:18] [SPEAKER_18]: This is like Akbar.
[01:17:22] [SPEAKER_18]: I think that that one's suit is one of the guys we're here to rescue or to salvage.
[01:17:28] [SPEAKER_18]: Just pointing that out there.
[01:17:31] [SPEAKER_18]: Ma'am, actually.
[01:17:33] [SPEAKER_18]: Ma'am, ma'am, I apologize, ma'am.
[01:17:36] [SPEAKER_20]: Yeah, you're probably right.
[01:17:40] [SPEAKER_20]: But I need some more answers before we get out of here.
[01:17:44] [SPEAKER_01]: So God, you can be so demanding sometimes.
[01:17:49] [SPEAKER_20]: Literally, my job is telling you guys.
[01:17:53] [SPEAKER_01]: It's both. Yeah.
[01:17:54] [SPEAKER_01]: OK.
[01:17:56] [SPEAKER_09]: So let's head towards
[01:17:58] [SPEAKER_15]: Fortune favors the bold or the cold depending on your point of view.
[01:18:04] [SPEAKER_15]: Let's let's go.
[01:18:05] [SPEAKER_15]: All right, I'll follow your leads, ma'am.
[01:18:07] [SPEAKER_11]: This is very traumatic.
[01:18:08] [SPEAKER_11]: I would say that this is also one of these things.
[01:18:11] [SPEAKER_11]: If I were really worried about it in a more long term kind of play,
[01:18:14] [SPEAKER_11]: I would be knocking off, you know, your mind points right now.
[01:18:19] [SPEAKER_11]: I would just say like this is a one shot kind of deal like that.
[01:18:22] [SPEAKER_11]: And I don't want to get into that.
[01:18:24] [SPEAKER_18]: But I mean, I'll roll a wits plus empathy to make that sand roll.
[01:18:29] [SPEAKER_11]: I mean, for narrative, why don't you do that then?
[01:18:32] [SPEAKER_11]: Why don't you tell me we'll see how you're so we see it together?
[01:18:37] [SPEAKER_18]: That's eight dice.
[01:18:39] [SPEAKER_18]: I apologize if I'm forcing you guys to do stuff, but it's like this is my character.
[01:18:43] [SPEAKER_18]: My character is kind of like I've been kind of playing it like today.
[01:18:46] [SPEAKER_18]: They say kind of not he's suddenly not happy with this whole situation.
[01:18:50] [SPEAKER_18]: I've not been happy with this since we found the space plants growing
[01:18:54] [SPEAKER_18]: where plants not grow.
[01:18:58] [SPEAKER_18]: Easy roller dice cup dot com.
[01:19:01] [SPEAKER_13]: Why have you forsaken me?
[01:19:05] [SPEAKER_08]: Actually, I got like holy shit.
[01:19:09] [SPEAKER_08]: One, two, three, four, five fucking sixes out of eight.
[01:19:14] [SPEAKER_11]: And here's what I'll give you for that.
[01:19:18] [SPEAKER_11]: OK, it was a moment when you're getting ready to break.
[01:19:20] [SPEAKER_11]: Like you're feeling it.
[01:19:22] [SPEAKER_11]: Yes.
[01:19:24] [SPEAKER_11]: It's it's it's a lot easier to raise that hammer run right.
[01:19:29] [SPEAKER_11]: Check it and rush.
[01:19:32] [SPEAKER_18]: And I don't have to outrun them.
[01:19:34] [SPEAKER_18]: I have to outrun you.
[01:19:34] [SPEAKER_18]: I am actually.
[01:19:37] [SPEAKER_11]: Well, yeah,
[01:19:39] [SPEAKER_11]: it's that moment that you kind of turn it at indecision, that you feel the vines
[01:19:44] [SPEAKER_11]: that you've been walking around kind of like
[01:19:48] [SPEAKER_11]: more resistance, you feel them kind of like bunching up around your feet.
[01:19:51] [SPEAKER_11]: And then you turn and follow the captain and you follow Nima.
[01:19:56] [SPEAKER_11]: And you feel them slack.
[01:20:01] [SPEAKER_01]: So that's got to be good, right?
[01:20:03] [SPEAKER_11]: Yeah.
[01:20:04] [SPEAKER_11]: So as you're walking back as you continue, so yeah.
[01:20:08] [SPEAKER_11]: So you maybe it's your head, maybe you didn't, maybe it's not the case,
[01:20:11] [SPEAKER_11]: but you felt like the moment that you stopped
[01:20:15] [SPEAKER_11]: and stopped resisting and went ahead and started following them.
[01:20:19] [SPEAKER_11]: You felt the tension in the resistance
[01:20:22] [SPEAKER_11]: of walking through that stuff, slacking.
[01:20:25] [SPEAKER_15]: And it's not be a joke.
[01:20:28] [SPEAKER_15]: And sorry, no, it's fine.
[01:20:32] [SPEAKER_11]: So.
[01:20:33] [SPEAKER_11]: It's long walk, shambling behind you.
[01:20:37] [SPEAKER_11]: You're kind of
[01:20:39] [SPEAKER_11]: well, actually, no, you're in the front.
[01:20:40] [SPEAKER_11]: There's two of the creatures or shambling behind you.
[01:20:44] [SPEAKER_11]: The light you see it kind of
[01:20:48] [SPEAKER_11]: the red glow kind of stop is at the station makes its rotation.
[01:20:52] [SPEAKER_11]: And you find yourself as you go further.
[01:20:55] [SPEAKER_11]: Again, it's thicker mass, but you're not really feeling it.
[01:20:58] [SPEAKER_11]: You're not feeling like resistance.
[01:21:00] [SPEAKER_11]: It's just almost like you're walking through leaves.
[01:21:03] [SPEAKER_11]: You're not walking through vines and I've been walking through leaves.
[01:21:06] [SPEAKER_11]: That's what you keep kind of thinking to yourself.
[01:21:09] [SPEAKER_11]: And you're standing in front of the
[01:21:13] [SPEAKER_11]: arbitorium, you just make your way down and is for you know it.
[01:21:19] [SPEAKER_11]: You're standing now that the passage keeps sneaking around past that.
[01:21:22] [SPEAKER_11]: But and at that point when you walk by the door,
[01:21:27] [SPEAKER_11]: it opens
[01:21:29] [SPEAKER_11]: and you clearly hear someone say, come in.
[01:21:32] [SPEAKER_20]: Oh, God.
[01:21:34] [SPEAKER_20]: Do I see the person that's talking?
[01:21:37] [SPEAKER_11]: If you look, you see standing back
[01:21:41] [SPEAKER_11]: several feet is a woman in a lab coat.
[01:21:46] [SPEAKER_11]: But
[01:21:49] [SPEAKER_11]: she's got the growth on her as well.
[01:21:51] [SPEAKER_11]: She's not she's not in the same shape.
[01:21:54] [SPEAKER_11]: She literally has the growth like it's coming out of her.
[01:21:59] [SPEAKER_11]: Like I mean kind of like poison ivy.
[01:22:01] [SPEAKER_11]: Maybe almost maybe a poison ivy with a little bit of a group, so to speak.
[01:22:07] [SPEAKER_11]: I mean more human looking.
[01:22:09] [SPEAKER_11]: She's not wearing a space suit.
[01:22:10] [SPEAKER_11]: Of course, you do have oxygen here.
[01:22:13] [SPEAKER_11]: That was my advice.
[01:22:15] [SPEAKER_11]: You're a very old tattered lab coat.
[01:22:21] [SPEAKER_11]: Oh, ladies and gentlemen, I'm sorry.
[01:22:24] [SPEAKER_11]: Please come in.
[01:22:25] [SPEAKER_11]: She steps back in, furshills her hands like
[01:22:28] [SPEAKER_13]: I'm so glad that you all aren't like our last guests that stopped by here.
[01:22:35] [SPEAKER_17]: Oh, what are they like?
[01:22:38] [SPEAKER_17]: What happened to them?
[01:22:40] [SPEAKER_13]: Do you step in?
[01:22:42] [SPEAKER_17]: Yeah, if the captain is.
[01:22:44] [SPEAKER_18]: Yeah.
[01:22:45] [SPEAKER_17]: Yeah.
[01:22:48] [SPEAKER_15]: She's scientists, too.
[01:22:49] [SPEAKER_15]: Maybe we'll bond and be best friends now.
[01:22:53] [SPEAKER_15]: Best friends.
[01:22:54] [SPEAKER_15]: I'll teach them the meaning of friendship.
[01:22:58] [SPEAKER_15]: Yeah, you can be the harlequin to her poison ivy.
[01:23:05] [SPEAKER_11]: She was she steps back and like
[01:23:09] [SPEAKER_11]: there's benches in the arbitorium.
[01:23:11] [SPEAKER_11]: There's a jaganny tree.
[01:23:12] [SPEAKER_11]: The growth is all around it.
[01:23:15] [SPEAKER_11]: It's like in that dome structure.
[01:23:18] [SPEAKER_11]: Like, I mean, it's snaking over even it's over the glass.
[01:23:22] [SPEAKER_11]: You can see the stars from outside the glass.
[01:23:24] [SPEAKER_11]: It's not completely obscuring it because, you know, but.
[01:23:29] [SPEAKER_11]: It's really kind of disturbing, too.
[01:23:32] [SPEAKER_11]: That now I know Chris has seen this,
[01:23:33] [SPEAKER_11]: could I point it out to him?
[01:23:35] [SPEAKER_11]: Have you ever seen Kudzu, Dave or Josh?
[01:23:39] [SPEAKER_18]: It's like a type of basically it's
[01:23:41] [SPEAKER_18]: like an ivy that grows like all over the place and carpets.
[01:23:44] [SPEAKER_18]: I've not seen it though.
[01:23:46] [SPEAKER_18]: I understand.
[01:23:48] [SPEAKER_11]: And yeah, we in America, I think it was there in the 60s or something like that.
[01:23:52] [SPEAKER_11]: It's an invasive plant that we brought over here to put along the side of like,
[01:23:56] [SPEAKER_11]: I think along the sides of rows and stuff like that could grow so
[01:24:00] [SPEAKER_11]: prolifically that it would choke out any kind of other growth there.
[01:24:04] [SPEAKER_11]: But it grew too well here and now pretty much everything that.
[01:24:08] [SPEAKER_11]: I mean, I showed my throw by some and pointed out to Chris when we were
[01:24:12] [SPEAKER_11]: driving around and it just I mean, it chokes out stuff like trees die and all that.
[01:24:17] [SPEAKER_11]: And that's kind of what it is.
[01:24:19] [SPEAKER_11]: Like these vines are so thick over the tree.
[01:24:21] [SPEAKER_11]: You thought that tree was alive and doing well.
[01:24:24] [SPEAKER_11]: And then as you kind of glance at it,
[01:24:25] [SPEAKER_11]: you realize, no, the tree is dead.
[01:24:29] [SPEAKER_18]: Yeah, it's kind of like a vampire vine, but like on steroids.
[01:24:34] [SPEAKER_20]: Yeah, I Google images of it and there's like a cottage
[01:24:37] [SPEAKER_20]: that is just completely covered.
[01:24:39] [SPEAKER_20]: Yep.
[01:24:40] [SPEAKER_18]: Yeah, they're like, Dave, you remember that that game I ran where you guys shot the
[01:24:45] [SPEAKER_18]: thing and then there's just this massive growth of plant life over your cars
[01:24:50] [SPEAKER_18]: and like the asphalt and stuff like that.
[01:24:52] [SPEAKER_18]: That's that's basically what Katsu is.
[01:24:54] [SPEAKER_11]: Remember that too, Chris.
[01:24:56] [SPEAKER_11]: What? I remember that too, Chris.
[01:24:59] [SPEAKER_18]: Oh yeah, you were in that.
[01:25:00] [SPEAKER_18]: You were in the other game, the other version of that game.
[01:25:03] [SPEAKER_18]: Yeah, the American version.
[01:25:05] [SPEAKER_11]: Yeah.
[01:25:08] [SPEAKER_11]: So.
[01:25:10] [SPEAKER_11]: It occurs to you, Dr.
[01:25:11] [SPEAKER_11]: Wanda,
[01:25:13] [SPEAKER_11]: the arbiterium is there to
[01:25:16] [SPEAKER_11]: means it's peace, but it's also oxygen.
[01:25:19] [SPEAKER_11]: It functions.
[01:25:21] [SPEAKER_11]: There's oxygen in this station.
[01:25:24] [SPEAKER_11]: There's nothing else to produce oxygen
[01:25:27] [SPEAKER_11]: except this stuff.
[01:25:29] [SPEAKER_11]: All the air that you would possibly been breathing
[01:25:33] [SPEAKER_11]: was exhaled
[01:25:35] [SPEAKER_11]: technically by this growth.
[01:25:37] [SPEAKER_20]: Or our spaces don't have oxygen on them.
[01:25:41] [SPEAKER_18]: Our spaces have up to eight hours.
[01:25:44] [SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, you're fine.
[01:25:45] [SPEAKER_18]: You didn't take your helmet off.
[01:25:46] [SPEAKER_18]: I think what he means is like, yes, sir.
[01:25:48] [SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, the oxygen levels that you're reading,
[01:25:51] [SPEAKER_11]: oxygen is coming from this, not the systems that are in place.
[01:26:00] [SPEAKER_18]: Yeah, they basically greenhouseed it or like they're
[01:26:03] [SPEAKER_18]: they're relying on the more natural way of providing oxygen.
[01:26:07] [SPEAKER_18]: But I mean, I'm sure there's a cost.
[01:26:08] [SPEAKER_20]: Yeah, like death and.
[01:26:11] [SPEAKER_18]: Or or infection or infestation.
[01:26:14] [SPEAKER_20]: Either way, does she respond to
[01:26:16] [SPEAKER_20]: Nima asking what happened or were the other people like?
[01:26:20] [SPEAKER_11]: Oh, oh, yeah.
[01:26:25] [SPEAKER_11]: She does.
[01:26:26] [SPEAKER_11]: She just shakes her head and just kind of looks like it's unfortunate.
[01:26:32] [SPEAKER_11]: They I guess they came here looking for us.
[01:26:34] [SPEAKER_11]: And they found us.
[01:26:36] [SPEAKER_11]: But when they saw us, they
[01:26:41] [SPEAKER_11]: reacted and she gestures to the gun in your hand,
[01:26:47] [SPEAKER_11]: cradled in your hands, the hammer carried by Zed.
[01:26:52] [SPEAKER_11]: I think Nima, you have a cricket, don't you?
[01:26:55] [SPEAKER_11]: Little pistol.
[01:26:56] [SPEAKER_06]: I have a Vulcan pistol.
[01:26:58] [SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, OK, you got a Vulcan pistol.
[01:27:01] [SPEAKER_11]: They reacted poorly and they could be not not be negotiated with.
[01:27:08] [SPEAKER_13]: And I'm so I'm so and I'm so happy to see that there are some level heads
[01:27:13] [SPEAKER_11]: in this situation because folks, I've been here a long time
[01:27:17] [SPEAKER_11]: and my work has found to come to fruition.
[01:27:20] [SPEAKER_11]: You see the ruler of the bar, which is, you know,
[01:27:25] [SPEAKER_11]: where like you were contracted from in a previous session, they had contacted you.
[01:27:30] [SPEAKER_11]: So it's just a planet
[01:27:32] [SPEAKER_11]: in the DeVarn system.
[01:27:35] [SPEAKER_11]: The they they sent us here to research
[01:27:37] [SPEAKER_11]: a plant that would save its save our dying world.
[01:27:41] [SPEAKER_11]: And through Hook and Crook, we are experimented as kind of fruition,
[01:27:46] [SPEAKER_11]: as you see around us here.
[01:27:48] [SPEAKER_11]: Look at look at our beautiful flower and
[01:27:52] [SPEAKER_11]: glance around and see it.
[01:27:56] [SPEAKER_13]: I have I have to get it back.
[01:28:02] [SPEAKER_13]: And I would like to offer you, if you will,
[01:28:08] [SPEAKER_13]: safe passage from the ship.
[01:28:11] [SPEAKER_13]: All you have to do is to take me and our lovely plant back to the planet
[01:28:18] [SPEAKER_13]: at the bar so I can complete my mission.
[01:28:22] [SPEAKER_18]: And
[01:28:24] [SPEAKER_18]: I'm looking accusingly at not not accusing.
[01:28:35] [SPEAKER_18]: OK.
[01:28:36] [SPEAKER_20]: As I like, I'm rubbing my hand over my forehead where
[01:28:40] [SPEAKER_20]: it what where my forehead would be, but I have a helmet on.
[01:28:44] [SPEAKER_20]: So your your planet is uninhabitable right now?
[01:28:50] [SPEAKER_13]: No, no.
[01:28:52] [SPEAKER_13]: But I mean,
[01:28:56] [SPEAKER_11]: the droughts have been a lot of the droughts were a problem.
[01:29:00] [SPEAKER_11]: And I'm assuming the droughts are still a problem.
[01:29:02] [SPEAKER_11]: And no one wants you to do the system.
[01:29:05] [SPEAKER_11]: I mean, it's a very arid place.
[01:29:07] [SPEAKER_18]: It's not like it's like Arrakis or is it like
[01:29:11] [SPEAKER_11]: I'm not familiar with Arrakis, but I'll say this.
[01:29:14] [SPEAKER_11]: But the planet, I would say I'd say a lot of it is like Arrakis.
[01:29:18] [SPEAKER_11]: It's hard for them to maintain plants and crops, you know?
[01:29:24] [SPEAKER_11]: And yeah, so it's a very arid kind of like Arrakis kind of place.
[01:29:29] [SPEAKER_11]: It's like Tatooine.
[01:29:31] [SPEAKER_18]: Yeah. Yeah, OK.
[01:29:33] [SPEAKER_11]: OK, hold on.
[01:29:33] [SPEAKER_11]: I got I'll exposition you here.
[01:29:36] [SPEAKER_11]: Good sir.
[01:29:37] [SPEAKER_18]: All right.
[01:29:38] [SPEAKER_11]: Hold on. Give me one second.
[01:29:40] [SPEAKER_18]: I also hope I'm not like interrupting too much.
[01:29:42] [SPEAKER_18]: Like I think no part of it's the lag, I think as well.
[01:29:46] [SPEAKER_11]: I'll let me add a bit more exposition.
[01:29:48] [SPEAKER_11]: Look, I can see that you're a little bit doubtful.
[01:29:52] [SPEAKER_11]: And I honestly.
[01:29:54] [SPEAKER_11]: I understand how this must look, but you've got to understand.
[01:30:01] [SPEAKER_11]: Well, we just the let me see.
[01:30:05] [SPEAKER_11]: Hold on shooting.
[01:30:06] [SPEAKER_11]: The Amir, which is the ruler of the bar,
[01:30:12] [SPEAKER_11]: sent us up here.
[01:30:14] [SPEAKER_11]: There was a I mean, the drought that kept going like there was more.
[01:30:18] [SPEAKER_11]: All right. We had new technologies, but the technologies that we used
[01:30:23] [SPEAKER_11]: took what resources we had and we got the land like it was hard for us
[01:30:31] [SPEAKER_11]: to generate foods.
[01:30:33] [SPEAKER_11]: But instead of cursing his situation,
[01:30:39] [SPEAKER_11]: the Amir turned him said I turned his size to the to the icons, which are the gods.
[01:30:45] [SPEAKER_11]: He found a text by a famous scholar named Solomon at mention.
[01:30:49] [SPEAKER_11]: They blessed flower with powers that the icon set to bring prosperity to most
[01:30:53] [SPEAKER_11]: decimal lands.
[01:30:55] [SPEAKER_11]: So the Amir says far and wide throughout the galaxy and looks for
[01:30:58] [SPEAKER_11]: look for this flower, this flower of heaven.
[01:31:02] [SPEAKER_11]: And hundreds of scientists and explorers went and sought to for a site,
[01:31:06] [SPEAKER_11]: his flower and one day an explorer with came to us with a strange story.
[01:31:12] [SPEAKER_11]: He said he found a beautiful and cylinder flower in the depths of a gasmine
[01:31:15] [SPEAKER_11]: on Salamant Manics.
[01:31:19] [SPEAKER_11]: We obviously knew that there was no such thing could possibly exist in this
[01:31:23] [SPEAKER_11]: gas mine. So we sent people there and low and behold,
[01:31:27] [SPEAKER_11]: there was a flower.
[01:31:29] [SPEAKER_11]: So we took it here, but that was the last days of the Portal Wars and
[01:31:36] [SPEAKER_11]: a battle erupted as we were doing our research, a battle erupted around the station.
[01:31:42] [SPEAKER_11]: Somewhere we never even saw where and a stray missile just happened to catch
[01:31:47] [SPEAKER_11]: our station and almost ruined everything.
[01:31:50] [SPEAKER_11]: But still we stayed here.
[01:31:52] [SPEAKER_11]: Those of us that survived and we continue to work and work.
[01:31:58] [SPEAKER_11]: And our dreams have come true.
[01:32:00] [SPEAKER_11]: Everything has come to fruition.
[01:32:02] [SPEAKER_11]: We had the flower and all we asked is a chance to return to the barn.
[01:32:08] [SPEAKER_11]: Where we can sow its seed and our people can reap the icon's gift.
[01:32:15] [SPEAKER_17]: It seems like looking back.
[01:32:18] [SPEAKER_20]: It seems like that gift has quite a big cost, though.
[01:32:22] [SPEAKER_20]: Because our.
[01:32:24] [SPEAKER_20]: I mean, not to.
[01:32:26] [SPEAKER_20]: Not to offend or anything, but you've been alive for how long?
[01:32:30] [SPEAKER_20]: Are you even human anymore at this point with all the mutations potentially that
[01:32:35] [SPEAKER_20]: this this flower is done to you?
[01:32:39] [SPEAKER_13]: Oh.
[01:32:40] [SPEAKER_13]: But I injected myself with it when when when I
[01:32:45] [SPEAKER_11]: when I when I it's the days went by and the months went by our research.
[01:32:50] [SPEAKER_11]: We needed us.
[01:32:52] [SPEAKER_11]: We needed something and I thought that the power of the flower, if it could survive
[01:32:57] [SPEAKER_11]: even on the most desolate of landscapes, it would it would save us.
[01:33:01] [SPEAKER_11]: And it has and she just kind of extends her hands.
[01:33:05] [SPEAKER_11]: My my assistants took it as well.
[01:33:08] [SPEAKER_11]: And we're here now and you kind of glance over your shoulder and
[01:33:12] [SPEAKER_11]: there's the one in a very tighter clothes is just kind of like standing like Igor.
[01:33:18] [SPEAKER_11]: Yes.
[01:33:19] [SPEAKER_11]: Yes.
[01:33:20] Sorry.
[01:33:23] [SPEAKER_20]: actually, do they see her?
[01:33:24] [SPEAKER_20]: Is she the only one?
[01:33:27] [SPEAKER_19]: He's the only one.
[01:33:28] [SPEAKER_19]: OK.
[01:33:32] [SPEAKER_18]: What about the so like we're seeing like Igor over there and and the doctor?
[01:33:38] [SPEAKER_17]: Do we have her name yet?
[01:33:40] [SPEAKER_17]: Do we do we get a name for the doctor?
[01:33:43] [SPEAKER_17]: Oh, sorry.
[01:33:44] [SPEAKER_11]: What was it? No, she didn't give a name.
[01:33:46] [SPEAKER_11]: Hold on.
[01:33:47] [SPEAKER_17]: Sorry.
[01:33:50] [SPEAKER_18]: The other thing I was thinking I was thinking of is
[01:33:54] [SPEAKER_18]: looking at the
[01:33:57] [SPEAKER_18]: the ones with like the exosuit or the one with the exo shell on like it still has
[01:34:04] [SPEAKER_18]: like a visor and like is the is the whole visor at this point just like filled
[01:34:08] [SPEAKER_18]: with writhing like little tentacles or like little like like vines and stuff.
[01:34:14] [SPEAKER_18]: Like stop there.
[01:34:16] [SPEAKER_11]: It's stop there.
[01:34:17] [SPEAKER_11]: It's just you just got this dead stare.
[01:34:19] [SPEAKER_11]: Oh, God, you've got the vines and I mean.
[01:34:23] [SPEAKER_18]: Well, doctor,
[01:34:25] [SPEAKER_18]: what about what about them?
[01:34:28] [SPEAKER_18]: Like it.
[01:34:29] [SPEAKER_18]: Are they alive or is they just being puppeted by the growth?
[01:34:37] [SPEAKER_18]: It's kind of doesn't point the hammer doesn't like in a not in a non-threatening
[01:34:42] [SPEAKER_18]: way just kind of gestures the hammer towards the people that were following
[01:34:45] [SPEAKER_18]: the the shambling to that was right.
[01:34:48] [SPEAKER_11]: Let's try that role you were talking about a manipulate.
[01:34:51] [SPEAKER_18]: OK.
[01:34:53] [SPEAKER_18]: Shit.
[01:34:55] [SPEAKER_11]: I think I wrote as well.
[01:34:57] [SPEAKER_11]: I think maybe it's more I want to think because I do actually row combat.
[01:35:01] [SPEAKER_18]: Yeah, I was speaking out for an oath role for empathy for the manipulation.
[01:35:06] [SPEAKER_11]: So let me look up my stats.
[01:35:09] [SPEAKER_18]: Am I the one that has to roll this because I'm talking or
[01:35:14] [SPEAKER_11]: yeah, you kind of opened your mouth.
[01:35:15] [SPEAKER_18]: Yeah, I'm sorry guys.
[01:35:17] [SPEAKER_18]: I've doomed us all.
[01:35:19] [SPEAKER_20]: Can I tell him to say this to give him a plus one?
[01:35:24] [SPEAKER_20]: I'm joking, of course.
[01:35:27] [SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, though.
[01:35:29] [SPEAKER_02]: Easy Roller.com.
[01:35:34] [SPEAKER_18]: Oh, fuck.
[01:35:37] [SPEAKER_18]: Nope.
[01:35:40] [SPEAKER_18]: Two ones and a two.
[01:35:41] [SPEAKER_11]: No, let me see how I rule.
[01:35:44] [SPEAKER_11]: Let's see.
[01:35:45] [SPEAKER_11]: I have this empathy and manipulation with some manipulation with some manipulation,
[01:35:53] [SPEAKER_14]: I think it's empathy plus manipulation.
[01:35:56] [SPEAKER_11]: Sorry, empathy plus manipulation.
[01:35:58] [SPEAKER_11]: I mean, all I'm doing is row in a certain stat here.
[01:36:02] [SPEAKER_11]: See if I how I do.
[01:36:04] [SPEAKER_11]: Let's see.
[01:36:07] [SPEAKER_11]: I don't have dice.
[01:36:10] [SPEAKER_11]: I'm trying to make my dice rower.
[01:36:14] [SPEAKER_11]: Flash row, I think I can type.
[01:36:16] [SPEAKER_11]: I'm in the boundary thing.
[01:36:19] [SPEAKER_11]: See empathy and manipulation.
[01:36:22] [SPEAKER_20]: You can use the discord roller too if you'd rather.
[01:36:28] [SPEAKER_11]: Let's see.
[01:36:29] [SPEAKER_11]: I may have to.
[01:36:30] [SPEAKER_20]: I forgot we had that disc roll.
[01:36:31] [SPEAKER_11]: Did it actually give individual dice row though?
[01:36:34] [SPEAKER_20]: Oh yeah, maybe better just doing Google dice.
[01:36:36] [SPEAKER_17]: Yeah.
[01:36:38] [SPEAKER_17]: Yeah, that's what I was doing at the beginning.
[01:36:41] [SPEAKER_11]: I'm sorry I didn't have a plan.
[01:36:43] [SPEAKER_11]: I thought I had this set up for me.
[01:36:49] [SPEAKER_11]: And why am I not my dice?
[01:36:51] [SPEAKER_11]: I'm not saying not working.
[01:36:54] [SPEAKER_11]: I'm just going to grab dice.
[01:36:55] [SPEAKER_11]: You'll care.
[01:36:56] [SPEAKER_19]: Yeah, go for it, dude.
[01:36:57] [SPEAKER_18]: All right, guys, I'm really sorry I fucked up.
[01:37:03] [SPEAKER_18]: It's fine or fine.
[01:37:05] [SPEAKER_18]: Well, we might very well be depending on how things go next.
[01:37:12] [SPEAKER_18]: Because yeah, I this depending on what I think this role is like.
[01:37:17] [SPEAKER_18]: We're having kind of like discern reality, like sort of a
[01:37:21] [SPEAKER_18]: discerning who's telling the truth or like either who's turning the truth or
[01:37:25] [SPEAKER_18]: who's like if we're able to get any actual honest
[01:37:31] [SPEAKER_18]: information out of her about this situation.
[01:37:35] [SPEAKER_11]: So I was wrong one dice many times because I didn't have it dug out.
[01:37:42] [SPEAKER_11]: But.
[01:37:43] [SPEAKER_11]: Oh, yeah, I mean, they're OK.
[01:37:47] [SPEAKER_11]: She says that you believe her.
[01:37:49] [SPEAKER_20]: Is the one that's behind us is a male or a female?
[01:37:56] [SPEAKER_11]: The one in the suit is the one in the exo suit is a female.
[01:37:59] [SPEAKER_11]: What is male?
[01:38:00] [SPEAKER_20]: Then I just want to simply say what's her name?
[01:38:04] [SPEAKER_20]: Or I'll ask her what's her name?
[01:38:08] [SPEAKER_20]: Like her as in the one I'm referring to.
[01:38:10] [SPEAKER_20]: Not my registration.
[01:38:11] [SPEAKER_10]: Yeah, yeah.
[01:38:13] [SPEAKER_10]: Yeah, she stares at you.
[01:38:19] [SPEAKER_11]: I'll say with your with your word with your wittiness right there.
[01:38:24] [SPEAKER_11]: She just stares at you.
[01:38:26] [SPEAKER_11]: Oh no, she's she's she's a light.
[01:38:28] [SPEAKER_11]: She's a light comer.
[01:38:30] [SPEAKER_11]: She hasn't quite accimated to the elite of the power.
[01:38:34] [SPEAKER_11]: I like blue.
[01:38:35] [SPEAKER_11]: Yes.
[01:38:38] [SPEAKER_11]: She's not quite ready.
[01:38:40] [SPEAKER_19]: OK.
[01:38:42] [SPEAKER_11]: Just stares at you.
[01:38:43] [SPEAKER_19]: So another one there that is a guy.
[01:38:52] [SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, you ask him.
[01:38:53] [SPEAKER_20]: All right, then what's your name?
[01:38:57] [SPEAKER_11]: He croaks and you kind of turn and look at her and she just shrugs.
[01:39:06] [SPEAKER_11]: Like, OK, so they've had their little stunted, but I'm OK.
[01:39:11] [SPEAKER_11]: So it's I mean, it's it's a cost to do in business, unfortunately.
[01:39:14] [SPEAKER_03]: One of three. That's not great odds.
[01:39:21] [SPEAKER_13]: So gentlemen, if you if you will.
[01:39:25] [SPEAKER_11]: No, sorry.
[01:39:27] [SPEAKER_11]: And like excuse me, I'm sorry to be to be rude.
[01:39:31] [SPEAKER_11]: Shall we go?
[01:39:35] [SPEAKER_20]: Well, I've got to check on the other ship first.
[01:39:39] [SPEAKER_20]: So when you say you want us to deliver
[01:39:41] [SPEAKER_20]: the seed to your planet, elaborate on that please.
[01:39:46] [SPEAKER_20]: Like what exactly do you need us to do?
[01:39:51] [SPEAKER_13]: Just drop me off yourself.
[01:39:53] [SPEAKER_11]: That's all you have to do to drop me off.
[01:40:01] [SPEAKER_11]: And all my guys fell in the floor
[01:40:03] [SPEAKER_11]: and my paper gum most or the floor except game over.
[01:40:08] [SPEAKER_18]: The floor has accepted the sacrifices.
[01:40:13] [SPEAKER_18]: Yeah, I'm looking at the at the at the at the captain is just like
[01:40:19] [SPEAKER_18]: and like maybe you have like a very subtle gesture with my my hammer is like.
[01:40:22] [SPEAKER_18]: And so I will concede to whatever the whether the captain says.
[01:40:34] [SPEAKER_02]: The plus one.
[01:40:37] [SPEAKER_11]: We'll be leaving now, she says, and they step closer.
[01:40:41] [SPEAKER_20]: I mean, I didn't agree yet.
[01:40:43] [SPEAKER_20]: So put my hands up.
[01:40:46] [SPEAKER_11]: OK, obviously you have the best
[01:40:48] [SPEAKER_11]: intention of our planet at my at heart here.
[01:40:50] [SPEAKER_11]: So let's go and she takes a step forward
[01:40:53] [SPEAKER_11]: and they take a step forward to you at the other door.
[01:40:56] [SPEAKER_02]: They the way.
[01:41:00] [SPEAKER_20]: All right.
[01:41:04] [SPEAKER_20]: You need to bring anything or just yourself?
[01:41:09] [SPEAKER_10]: Just me.
[01:41:10] [SPEAKER_20]: I thought you need to bring
[01:41:12] [SPEAKER_20]: the plants of some kind like to to seed the planet.
[01:41:21] [SPEAKER_11]: She hoes at her hand and you see.
[01:41:25] [SPEAKER_11]: I can't remember what movie it was,
[01:41:27] [SPEAKER_11]: but you see her palms separate in a little vine just kind of stinks.
[01:41:32] [SPEAKER_11]: It's way out a little bit.
[01:41:34] [SPEAKER_20]: Whips around in front of her scorpion.
[01:41:38] [SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, like like scorpion.
[01:41:41] [SPEAKER_11]: Well, it just whips out.
[01:41:43] [SPEAKER_11]: I mean, not like darting around like a dart, but it's just like I think we got that
[01:41:47] [SPEAKER_11]: covered.
[01:41:49] [SPEAKER_11]: And she closes her hand and it retracts into her hand.
[01:41:53] [SPEAKER_12]: Ekbar.
[01:41:57] [SPEAKER_09]: OK, I'm sure this will be fine.
[01:42:09] [SPEAKER_20]: As long as we're clear, like I don't as wonderful as your plant is,
[01:42:14] [SPEAKER_20]: it's not required on our ship.
[01:42:17] [SPEAKER_20]: So as long as none of it stays on the ship,
[01:42:21] [SPEAKER_20]: you just drop me off and we're good to go.
[01:42:26] [SPEAKER_20]: Yeah, what about the survivors from the are there any survivors from the
[01:42:31] [SPEAKER_20]: insert ship name here?
[01:42:35] [SPEAKER_18]: Well, yeah, they're right that she's right there.
[01:42:37] [SPEAKER_18]: Points to the the one in the exit shell.
[01:42:41] [SPEAKER_11]: Oh, they chose poorly, but you you're you will not.
[01:42:45] [SPEAKER_20]: They chose poorly.
[01:42:48] [SPEAKER_20]: OK.
[01:42:51] [SPEAKER_20]: Is there a ship in working order or no?
[01:42:59] [SPEAKER_18]: I mean, if that was here, you have a tow operation we were if.
[01:43:02] [SPEAKER_13]: Yeah, look, this is a mission of good will.
[01:43:06] [SPEAKER_13]: They had no good will.
[01:43:07] [SPEAKER_13]: And unfortunately, the ship
[01:43:11] [SPEAKER_13]: is not in working order.
[01:43:14] [SPEAKER_11]: Otherwise, we would have already left on it.
[01:43:17] [SPEAKER_08]: So may we tow it back
[01:43:21] [SPEAKER_08]: with you? Yeah, sure.
[01:43:25] [SPEAKER_13]: Sure. If you if you need it back, that's fine.
[01:43:28] [SPEAKER_13]: We do have it.
[01:43:30] [SPEAKER_20]: Yeah, if you if you can retract the
[01:43:34] [SPEAKER_20]: flower from the ship so we can take it with us, then yes.
[01:43:41] [SPEAKER_11]: Use the nods.
[01:43:43] [SPEAKER_11]: Like nods your head and goes.
[01:43:46] [SPEAKER_13]: Done.
[01:43:48] [SPEAKER_18]: Somewhere we just heard groaning farther down as like the giant
[01:43:52] [SPEAKER_18]: vines just retract from the.
[01:43:55] [SPEAKER_18]: There's a cinematic suddenly like cuts away out into the space to show it.
[01:43:58] [SPEAKER_18]: Like just the vines disengaging from that ship.
[01:44:03] [SPEAKER_11]: As it slowly starts to drift away.
[01:44:05] [SPEAKER_18]: Shit, we had to pick that out of the way.
[01:44:08] [SPEAKER_16]: OK.
[01:44:09] [SPEAKER_16]: All right. So that's what we're doing.
[01:44:11] [SPEAKER_16]: This is what we're doing.
[01:44:12] [SPEAKER_16]: Yeah.
[01:44:14] [SPEAKER_20]: How far away is your planet from here?
[01:44:19] [SPEAKER_16]: It yeah, what system?
[01:44:20] [SPEAKER_16]: What system was this again?
[01:44:21] [SPEAKER_11]: Yes, I mean, this is what I'm kind of if you on here.
[01:44:24] [SPEAKER_11]: Like whenever I run a game again with this, I do want to kind of give you
[01:44:27] [SPEAKER_11]: guys like it was more exposition about the world and all that.
[01:44:30] [SPEAKER_11]: But the bar lies in the bar and system.
[01:44:34] [SPEAKER_11]: So it's, you know,
[01:44:37] [SPEAKER_11]: it's a random distance away.
[01:44:40] [SPEAKER_11]: So I mean, obviously they would have went there themselves if it wasn't on the
[01:44:43] [SPEAKER_11]: outreach is so I mean certain distance here.
[01:44:46] [SPEAKER_18]: So it's yeah, it's it's somewhere in the system in like the.
[01:44:50] [SPEAKER_11]: You're in.
[01:44:50] [SPEAKER_11]: But yeah, yeah, it's a station was lost.
[01:44:54] [SPEAKER_11]: OK, it wouldn't have been lost like next to it.
[01:44:56] [SPEAKER_11]: So you got a nice long little inner inner city or any galaxy travel.
[01:45:03] [SPEAKER_20]: Great. And if you'll agree,
[01:45:06] [SPEAKER_20]: would it be OK if you were on the ship that we were towing just to ensure that
[01:45:13] [SPEAKER_20]: none of none of your your spores or where the flower get on our ship?
[01:45:18] [SPEAKER_20]: Because we need our ships come back clean.
[01:45:25] [SPEAKER_11]: That sounds like a manipulation route.
[01:45:27] [SPEAKER_01]: Thank God you said that.
[01:45:30] [SPEAKER_11]: Now, Dave, don't forget you could give me a dark point if you do.
[01:45:33] [SPEAKER_11]: I like this if I don't like the roller.
[01:45:35] [SPEAKER_20]: I don't like yeah, if I don't like the outcome of my role.
[01:45:40] [SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, well, you can you just you give me a darkness point and re-roll it.
[01:45:44] [SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, not that I need those right now or anything.
[01:45:46] [SPEAKER_11]: Just because you're looking at death.
[01:45:52] [SPEAKER_11]: Simply.
[01:45:53] [SPEAKER_11]: What's well like about the interface of founder?
[01:45:55] [SPEAKER_11]: If we were doing it, you would see that number, which is zero right now.
[01:45:58] [SPEAKER_11]: Can I spend everything trying to?
[01:46:00] [SPEAKER_20]: Oh, we would have a round here.
[01:46:01] [SPEAKER_20]: You know that?
[01:46:04] [SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, you'd have a visual of like how many points I got.
[01:46:07] [SPEAKER_11]: And you also have every time you have to use it in desperation,
[01:46:09] [SPEAKER_11]: you see that number tick up.
[01:46:12] [SPEAKER_11]: So it's just it's a player itself at the table.
[01:46:16] [SPEAKER_11]: I like it.
[01:46:22] [SPEAKER_20]: So I got one hit.
[01:46:23] [SPEAKER_20]: I want to be sure, though, so I'm going to give a darkness.
[01:46:28] [SPEAKER_20]: So do I re-roll everything or just re-roll my non hits?
[01:46:33] [SPEAKER_11]: I want to think that you just re-roll your non hits.
[01:46:36] [SPEAKER_11]: I really think that's in the role.
[01:46:38] [SPEAKER_11]: I'll do that.
[01:46:39] [SPEAKER_11]: Like, otherwise I don't want you.
[01:46:41] [SPEAKER_11]: I wouldn't let you jeopardize one success.
[01:46:43] [SPEAKER_11]: I mean, success.
[01:46:45] [SPEAKER_11]: You're shooting for another.
[01:46:47] [SPEAKER_11]: That's fine.
[01:46:48] [SPEAKER_11]: Even if it's not written as rules, it's my role.
[01:46:51] [SPEAKER_20]: OK, I got a second hit.
[01:46:53] [SPEAKER_20]: Do I give another?
[01:46:56] [SPEAKER_20]: How many hits do I want here?
[01:46:59] [SPEAKER_11]: Honestly, I think one's the limit on that.
[01:47:03] [SPEAKER_20]: So yeah, I got two hits.
[01:47:08] [SPEAKER_13]: Yes, that.
[01:47:11] [SPEAKER_13]: That is acceptable.
[01:47:12] [SPEAKER_13]: I think we can do that.
[01:47:16] [SPEAKER_13]: Tell you what, I will.
[01:47:20] [SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, because like I said, you're manipulating.
[01:47:23] [SPEAKER_11]: Like, you know, she thinks she is she thinks she has you at a disadvantage.
[01:47:27] [SPEAKER_11]: But you also see in her eyes this
[01:47:30] [SPEAKER_11]: religious fervor that
[01:47:34] [SPEAKER_11]: did you ever play Far Cry the one that was set in America?
[01:47:39] [SPEAKER_20]: Far Cry I've only played like Far Cry one and two and three, I believe.
[01:47:43] [SPEAKER_20]: So no.
[01:47:44] [SPEAKER_11]: OK, I kind of think of this woman as a character in their coblists.
[01:47:47] [SPEAKER_17]: But I think I know what you're talking about.
[01:47:50] [SPEAKER_11]: The blonde.
[01:47:53] [SPEAKER_11]: The B.
[01:47:54] [SPEAKER_11]: Yes, sir.
[01:47:55] [SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, she goes.
[01:47:59] [SPEAKER_11]: Yes, gentlemen, I think that is.
[01:48:02] [SPEAKER_11]: I see your intentions.
[01:48:04] [SPEAKER_11]: I think that would be satisfactory.
[01:48:07] [SPEAKER_11]: You won't mind if my men escort you to your ship as well.
[01:48:11] [SPEAKER_05]: Not at all.
[01:48:14] [SPEAKER_05]: Perfect.
[01:48:14] [SPEAKER_05]: That's fine.
[01:48:16] [SPEAKER_05]: OK, that's fine.
[01:48:17] [SPEAKER_05]: Let's face it, the station is huge.
[01:48:22] [SPEAKER_05]: We wouldn't want to get lost.
[01:48:26] [SPEAKER_14]: You're looking very smart as a ghost.
[01:48:28] [SPEAKER_11]: Yeah.
[01:48:32] [SPEAKER_11]: So, yeah, if nothing else is being said,
[01:48:36] [SPEAKER_11]: you all slowly and awkwardly walk out of there.
[01:48:40] [SPEAKER_11]: You make your way back down the
[01:48:44] [SPEAKER_11]: corridor, you get to the part where it kind of snaked off to go in south.
[01:48:51] [SPEAKER_11]: She stands there for a moment and like
[01:48:55] [SPEAKER_11]: I will be waiting.
[01:48:57] [SPEAKER_11]: And
[01:48:59] [SPEAKER_11]: she steps, you see her go down the hall.
[01:49:03] [SPEAKER_11]: You see the vines just part like curtains, like those beebeed curtains.
[01:49:08] [SPEAKER_11]: She just walks right through them and she's on the ship.
[01:49:14] [SPEAKER_11]: The two forms are standing beside behind you.
[01:49:18] [SPEAKER_11]: They kind of point again in a direction
[01:49:22] [SPEAKER_11]: and you I will assume unless you interrupt me at any point that they are
[01:49:27] [SPEAKER_11]: going to march you back to it.
[01:49:30] [SPEAKER_11]: I will ask for you to give me
[01:49:35] [SPEAKER_11]: all a observation role one more time.
[01:49:38] [SPEAKER_11]: I mean, I may be misusing this is going to give me a lot to go.
[01:49:41] [SPEAKER_11]: But I just want to see if everybody can just like
[01:49:46] [SPEAKER_01]: these are really nice.
[01:49:47] [SPEAKER_02]: That's physical done made by Dave.
[01:49:51] [SPEAKER_20]: Fuck.
[01:49:51] [SPEAKER_20]: One hit.
[01:49:53] [SPEAKER_20]: Nope.
[01:49:54] [SPEAKER_20]: Two hits.
[01:49:56] [SPEAKER_11]: No, it's the one in the lab.
[01:50:01] [SPEAKER_11]: That is leading you the one that is in the exosuit is walking behind kind of behind
[01:50:07] [SPEAKER_11]: you, beside you and you keep noticing like I mentioned before.
[01:50:13] [SPEAKER_11]: Had Dr. Wanda, Dr. Wanda, you're the one to solve this right
[01:50:16] [SPEAKER_11]: in the beginning, you solve the light flashing.
[01:50:19] [SPEAKER_11]: And you don't want to succeed at this.
[01:50:22] [SPEAKER_11]: OK.
[01:50:24] [SPEAKER_11]: What you're seeing is like it's on the side of the helmet.
[01:50:27] [SPEAKER_11]: There's a flashing light and you know that this is part of the communication
[01:50:32] [SPEAKER_11]: system, there's a message and typically you just reach up,
[01:50:35] [SPEAKER_11]: because it's not like you can toggle it from inside a voice in the other way.
[01:50:39] [SPEAKER_11]: But there's a message that says I basically like a voicemail message
[01:50:43] [SPEAKER_11]: that's like flashing on the side of this way home mutated.
[01:50:50] [SPEAKER_11]: So you notice again, it's flashing.
[01:50:53] [SPEAKER_11]: I mean, you could just reach over and touch it if you wanted to.
[01:50:58] [SPEAKER_20]: As curious as I am.
[01:51:01] [SPEAKER_20]: Do it.
[01:51:02] [SPEAKER_20]: Do it.
[01:51:03] [SPEAKER_20]: Do it.
[01:51:04] [SPEAKER_20]: Do I want to poke the fucking bear, though?
[01:51:08] [SPEAKER_20]: The bear is letting us walk out of its fucking den.
[01:51:11] [SPEAKER_11]: You can tell me at which
[01:51:13] [SPEAKER_11]: at which point do you want to poke the bear?
[01:51:16] [SPEAKER_11]: If you're wanting to, do you want to do it immediately when you're by
[01:51:20] [SPEAKER_11]: at the top?
[01:51:21] [SPEAKER_11]: Do you want to wait till you're halfway to the airlock?
[01:51:23] [SPEAKER_11]: I mean, or do you not want to hit it at all and just let that go?
[01:51:29] [SPEAKER_18]: I can't have any influence over this.
[01:51:30] [SPEAKER_18]: I didn't really anything in my observation, so it's all in you, Dave.
[01:51:33] [SPEAKER_11]: You were vocalizing.
[01:51:38] [SPEAKER_20]: I'm kind of
[01:51:40] [SPEAKER_11]: if you guys can talk amongst yourselves.
[01:51:43] [SPEAKER_20]: No, if these creatures have any sort of
[01:51:46] [SPEAKER_20]: brain function, so I might just straight up ask them, is it him or her?
[01:51:55] [SPEAKER_17]: I think it was a herb in the exo shell.
[01:51:56] [SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, the extra serves a female.
[01:51:58] [SPEAKER_20]: I might just ask her
[01:52:01] [SPEAKER_20]: or rather just tell her that there's a message in her helmet.
[01:52:10] [SPEAKER_11]: You can talk it from outside.
[01:52:12] [SPEAKER_11]: But yeah, I mean, you mentioned that too.
[01:52:14] [SPEAKER_11]: And it just serves that you with dead eyes.
[01:52:17] [SPEAKER_11]: You see a ripple
[01:52:20] [SPEAKER_11]: inside her cheek like going toward her eye.
[01:52:23] [SPEAKER_11]: Like it rises up kind of and goes down and you see a little green
[01:52:27] [SPEAKER_11]: something shoot out the corner of her eye and dart back in.
[01:52:31] [SPEAKER_20]: OK, yeah, there's nothing in there anymore.
[01:52:35] [SPEAKER_11]: I like body horror.
[01:52:37] [SPEAKER_20]: I noticed.
[01:52:38] [SPEAKER_20]: If only and we're making friends with the scientists.
[01:52:43] [SPEAKER_20]: So it's technically a buddy horror.
[01:52:47] [SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, I was vaping sir.
[01:52:49] [SPEAKER_11]: And that made strawberry banana go out my eyeballs as well.
[01:52:53] [SPEAKER_11]: So thank you.
[01:52:57] [SPEAKER_20]: Yeah, I think I'm just going to let that go.
[01:53:01] [SPEAKER_20]: I know.
[01:53:03] [SPEAKER_20]: I know.
[01:53:04] [SPEAKER_18]: I can't say I can't.
[01:53:06] [SPEAKER_18]: I don't don't don't don't mitigate from on my account because like I didn't
[01:53:10] [SPEAKER_18]: see it. So it's like I'm just also like what?
[01:53:13] [SPEAKER_20]: What important information could we realistically get off of a message there?
[01:53:16] [SPEAKER_20]: We know what's going on.
[01:53:20] [SPEAKER_18]: I mean, we have suspicions.
[01:53:22] [SPEAKER_18]: We don't know for sure.
[01:53:26] [SPEAKER_18]: It could be like, oh man, I love being a corpse
[01:53:30] [SPEAKER_18]: potted by plant things.
[01:53:31] [SPEAKER_18]: It's the greatest.
[01:53:32] [SPEAKER_18]: It's bliss.
[01:53:33] [SPEAKER_20]: Oh, like it uses the truth.
[01:53:35] [SPEAKER_18]: If whoever finds this.
[01:53:36] [SPEAKER_18]: Oh, my wife.
[01:53:37] [SPEAKER_18]: Hello. Sorry.
[01:53:39] [SPEAKER_20]: Drevenants.
[01:53:39] [SPEAKER_20]: It's a page alert.
[01:53:42] [SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, I would tell if you don't, we continue to the ship.
[01:53:46] [SPEAKER_20]: So what you said that the.
[01:53:48] [SPEAKER_20]: The vine went up like towards it.
[01:53:52] [SPEAKER_18]: No helmet, no in her in her like flesh, like in her face.
[01:53:55] [SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, you see it just rippled up the side of her like, you know, over her cheekbone.
[01:54:01] [SPEAKER_11]: Kind of you see a little green substance she had around the corner of her eye and
[01:54:05] [SPEAKER_11]: it just kind of just keeps going like it doesn't dart back in as much as it
[01:54:09] [SPEAKER_11]: just kind of goes back to the corner of the eye and up and it's just very
[01:54:16] [SPEAKER_11]: disturbing.
[01:54:17] [SPEAKER_18]: But you could, if you wanted,
[01:54:19] [SPEAKER_18]: tap at the side of her helmet, which would activate the message
[01:54:23] [SPEAKER_18]: that's been there for who knows how long she's been dead or the exo shell one is
[01:54:28] [SPEAKER_20]: the newer one, right?
[01:54:30] [SPEAKER_20]: Yeah. Yeah.
[01:54:32] [SPEAKER_18]: Like one of the crewmate, the crew people that we were
[01:54:35] [SPEAKER_18]: sent here to look for and salvage if we could.
[01:54:38] [SPEAKER_18]: So it's up to you, man.
[01:54:44] [SPEAKER_20]: Like in this situation, I would not even
[01:54:50] [SPEAKER_20]: know you don't want to touch them like.
[01:54:53] [SPEAKER_18]: Yeah, true.
[01:54:55] [SPEAKER_18]: We can just ignore it.
[01:54:57] [SPEAKER_20]: I am an or nor against my better judgment like that.
[01:55:00] [SPEAKER_20]: Rather, my better judgment is to ignore it actually.
[01:55:03] [SPEAKER_20]: But regardless, I'm going to ignore it.
[01:55:06] [SPEAKER_20]: Because I don't want to recognize us being able to leave.
[01:55:09] [SPEAKER_11]: So you anybody else have any strong feelings?
[01:55:14] [SPEAKER_11]: I mean, like you don't see the flashing light, but yeah,
[01:55:18] [SPEAKER_11]: you're being escorted back if like this is your time to act now.
[01:55:21] [SPEAKER_18]: If you're going to act as long as they're not attacking us or like going
[01:55:25] [SPEAKER_18]: like to try and like implant something in us on the way there.
[01:55:29] [SPEAKER_18]: I'm happy to just get back to the ship.
[01:55:32] [SPEAKER_18]: I'm going to make sure they don't come on the ship with us.
[01:55:34] [SPEAKER_18]: Yeah.
[01:55:36] [SPEAKER_18]: But like on the way there, like I'm just keeping an eye, make sure they're
[01:55:39] [SPEAKER_18]: not getting too like close and like handsy.
[01:55:43] [SPEAKER_14]: Yeah.
[01:55:48] [SPEAKER_11]: You're you're escorted back to your ship.
[01:55:51] [SPEAKER_11]: You're at the airlock.
[01:55:52] [SPEAKER_11]: They're standing with you.
[01:55:55] [SPEAKER_18]: Do they make it?
[01:55:55] [SPEAKER_18]: Are they are they trying to come into the ship with us?
[01:55:58] [SPEAKER_11]: No, because they're standing there.
[01:56:00] [SPEAKER_18]: OK.
[01:56:02] [SPEAKER_11]: Man, those airlock doors are slow.
[01:56:04] [SPEAKER_18]: Really uncomfortable.
[01:56:07] [SPEAKER_18]: Just just staring like they're staring at us.
[01:56:11] [SPEAKER_18]: They're staring at them.
[01:56:12] [SPEAKER_18]: It's very awkward as the doors slowly close.
[01:56:14] [SPEAKER_00]: Ending officer.
[01:56:16] [SPEAKER_11]: It's your you're in your ship.
[01:56:20] [SPEAKER_11]: So.
[01:56:22] [SPEAKER_11]: Role play this out.
[01:56:24] [SPEAKER_11]: What are you saying?
[01:56:25] [SPEAKER_11]: And what was what's your I feel like if there's an opportunity for you to
[01:56:29] [SPEAKER_11]: make a play, it's now so what I want out of game.
[01:56:34] [SPEAKER_16]: Do we have guns on the ship?
[01:56:36] [SPEAKER_16]: Is the ship armed?
[01:56:37] [SPEAKER_11]: Right.
[01:56:39] [SPEAKER_20]: Yeah.
[01:56:40] [SPEAKER_11]: It's not even dictated on this.
[01:56:43] [SPEAKER_11]: I would assume that all ships being an American like
[01:56:47] [SPEAKER_11]: and I don't know space combat, I would say though that you do have like light
[01:56:52] [SPEAKER_11]: armaments because there is like if you go through the rules,
[01:56:56] [SPEAKER_11]: you know, there's stuff for space combat.
[01:56:58] [SPEAKER_11]: And off mic we were talking before him to that.
[01:57:03] [SPEAKER_11]: Like each person plays a role.
[01:57:05] [SPEAKER_11]: So I would assume that you like do you have the best guns in the world?
[01:57:08] [SPEAKER_11]: Probably not. If you're still my
[01:57:09] [SPEAKER_11]: companions, but I mean, there are there are guns.
[01:57:13] [SPEAKER_18]: OK, so Captain.
[01:57:15] [SPEAKER_18]: Oh yeah.
[01:57:16] [SPEAKER_18]: You.
[01:57:18] [SPEAKER_18]: OK.
[01:57:20] [SPEAKER_14]: Fucking shit.
[01:57:21] [SPEAKER_20]: We do anything.
[01:57:22] [SPEAKER_20]: Let's get dislodged for the station and start our approach.
[01:57:26] [SPEAKER_20]: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
[01:57:27] [SPEAKER_20]: I'm not ready.
[01:57:29] [SPEAKER_18]: I hit I just I just I just smack the button like next to me to disengage.
[01:57:34] [SPEAKER_18]: So yeah, we're released.
[01:57:36] [SPEAKER_18]: Um, do we I think we should we should tow it away from the station and then.
[01:57:45] [SPEAKER_18]: They said that the ship the ship doesn't have any engines, right?
[01:57:48] [SPEAKER_11]: It doesn't have the means to if it's alluded that it didn't work.
[01:57:53] [SPEAKER_18]: So if we can like cable it and just like tow it like we were planning.
[01:57:59] [SPEAKER_18]: Why don't we just drift it to the nearest star?
[01:58:06] [SPEAKER_11]: You're all say it's Canada day everything.
[01:58:10] [SPEAKER_18]: Yes.
[01:58:13] [SPEAKER_18]: Let's I believe I believe an ancient
[01:58:15] [SPEAKER_18]: there was it was an ancient maneuver called the Helo maneuver.
[01:58:20] [SPEAKER_07]: It's actually called Helios.
[01:58:22] [SPEAKER_07]: Oh, come on.
[01:58:23] [SPEAKER_18]: Yeah, I apologize.
[01:58:25] [SPEAKER_18]: Or I mean we could tow it back and then tell the D'Boren authorities about the
[01:58:31] [SPEAKER_18]: situation and leave it in space, like disconnect ourselves from it and leave it
[01:58:36] [SPEAKER_18]: in drifting in space for the D'Boren government to deal with.
[01:58:39] [SPEAKER_18]: Yeah, because they'll like that way.
[01:58:42] [SPEAKER_18]: It's not going to pass her off.
[01:58:45] [SPEAKER_18]: Yeah, well, I mean, what's she going to do?
[01:58:47] [SPEAKER_06]: Well, when the D'Boren authorities deal with it a lot.
[01:58:51] [SPEAKER_18]: Yeah, let's let them deal with it.
[01:58:53] [SPEAKER_18]: We get paid for the commission.
[01:58:55] [SPEAKER_18]: They get to blow it up or do whatever they want with it.
[01:58:58] [SPEAKER_18]: Hell, maybe she does have the best of intentions.
[01:59:01] [SPEAKER_18]: Maybe she will turn D'Boren into a green planet.
[01:59:04] [SPEAKER_18]: I don't fucking know.
[01:59:05] [SPEAKER_18]: All I know is that shit ain't right.
[01:59:08] [SPEAKER_16]: She I'm like pointing out the window to the space plans.
[01:59:11] [SPEAKER_16]: We already said fucking to the payday.
[01:59:15] [SPEAKER_18]: I mean,
[01:59:17] [SPEAKER_18]: at least if we if we let if we drift her in space with like near in D'Boren
[01:59:23] [SPEAKER_18]: space and contact the authorities or contact our our commissioner, then at least
[01:59:29] [SPEAKER_18]: we get paid and they can deal with whatever
[01:59:32] [SPEAKER_18]: existential existential crisis that that scientist has going on.
[01:59:44] [SPEAKER_16]: Or we could just, you know, drift her into a star.
[01:59:50] [SPEAKER_18]: I'm for drifting or or captain.
[01:59:52] [SPEAKER_18]: Do you want to do you want to have her
[01:59:56] [SPEAKER_18]: seed D'Boren?
[01:59:57] [SPEAKER_20]: I want her to see D'Boren and turn the entire planet into
[02:00:03] [SPEAKER_20]: some like a hive mind zombie plant race.
[02:00:07] [SPEAKER_20]: Of course I want to do that, don't you?
[02:00:11] [SPEAKER_16]: Like, I mean, have you been to some of the jungle worlds?
[02:00:15] [SPEAKER_16]: They're not that great.
[02:00:17] [SPEAKER_20]: I'm just saying, did you understand sarcasm?
[02:00:21] [SPEAKER_20]: Of course I don't want to fucking do it.
[02:00:23] [SPEAKER_18]: OK, I'm sorry, Captain.
[02:00:29] [SPEAKER_20]: OK, so.
[02:00:31] [SPEAKER_20]: I just wanted us to get the fuck out of there
[02:00:34] [SPEAKER_20]: as fast as possible because my initial plan was the helo maneuver.
[02:00:41] [SPEAKER_20]: Like, of course.
[02:00:44] [SPEAKER_18]: Thank God, I love it.
[02:00:45] [SPEAKER_18]: It's not the time.
[02:00:48] [SPEAKER_16]: OK, although.
[02:00:51] [SPEAKER_18]: I say we do it away from the ship because she does seem to have some kind
[02:00:55] [SPEAKER_18]: of control over the plants.
[02:00:57] [SPEAKER_18]: And the last thing I think we want to do is to have her think that something's up
[02:01:01] [SPEAKER_18]: when she's in proximity to the vines that she can control in space.
[02:01:06] [SPEAKER_20]: Realistically, the best thing we should do is just bring it to D'Boren space,
[02:01:12] [SPEAKER_20]: accidentally lose the connection in space and call the cops.
[02:01:19] [SPEAKER_18]: Yes, and then we get paid because profit.
[02:01:24] [SPEAKER_18]: Again, I love this plan.
[02:01:27] [SPEAKER_18]: I'm excited to be a part of it.
[02:01:32] [SPEAKER_20]: OK, let's get towing.
[02:01:34] [SPEAKER_18]: Now we just got it.
[02:01:35] [SPEAKER_18]: Now we just got a tour for who knows how many hours.
[02:01:38] [SPEAKER_18]: Days, where the fuck are we?
[02:01:42] [SPEAKER_18]: How far are we from D'Boren?
[02:01:43] [SPEAKER_18]: Are in certain distance here days.
[02:01:46] [SPEAKER_18]: Oh, God, we have to deal with her for days.
[02:01:49] [SPEAKER_11]: Like I said, if they could have got there easily, they would have went there.
[02:01:52] [SPEAKER_11]: OK, you were passing through the outskirts to begin with.
[02:01:56] [SPEAKER_11]: You were radio when you took this job.
[02:01:59] [SPEAKER_11]: You didn't land on the planet and negotiate stuff.
[02:02:02] [SPEAKER_11]: You got to contract while they saw you were there at this space.
[02:02:06] [SPEAKER_11]: And then so it's a commission of opportunity.
[02:02:10] [SPEAKER_18]: OK, no, that's like that's that's what it was.
[02:02:13] [SPEAKER_18]: Like we just happened to be in the area and they contact us.
[02:02:16] [SPEAKER_18]: Yeah, OK.
[02:02:18] [SPEAKER_18]: Then I.
[02:02:20] [SPEAKER_18]: Which one of us is good at the guns?
[02:02:22] [SPEAKER_18]: Because I feel like one of us should be on the guns.
[02:02:24] [SPEAKER_18]: The targeting that like the
[02:02:28] [SPEAKER_18]: the ship or at least even our tow cable at all times in case, you know,
[02:02:33] [SPEAKER_18]: she decides to do some vine fuckery along the cable.
[02:02:37] [SPEAKER_11]: Well, I mean, I hear mechanically was talk about this.
[02:02:40] [SPEAKER_11]: OK, because like I said, I like where you guys are going with this.
[02:02:45] [SPEAKER_11]: And despite my best efforts to instigate stuff,
[02:02:49] [SPEAKER_11]: like you all you all helps have strong.
[02:02:52] [SPEAKER_11]: So that's great.
[02:02:53] [SPEAKER_11]: Now, here's the way I would kind of do it.
[02:02:54] [SPEAKER_11]: Like I haven't looked at ship combat because I did not dream in my water fucking
[02:02:57] [SPEAKER_11]: dreams of like I would need to know ship combat today.
[02:03:01] [SPEAKER_18]: But then again, that's the one let's die option.
[02:03:04] [SPEAKER_18]: That's the one let's die motto.
[02:03:05] [SPEAKER_18]: We're learning and we subvert expectations.
[02:03:09] [SPEAKER_11]: I went I went like I said, I kind of went off
[02:03:15] [SPEAKER_11]: the plot anyway with this.
[02:03:17] [SPEAKER_11]: So it's kind of I'll talk about my misgivings with this.
[02:03:21] [SPEAKER_11]: So look, I would basically take your player that had the best shooting ability
[02:03:24] [SPEAKER_11]: would have been the Marine or the Legionaire character that you don't have.
[02:03:29] [SPEAKER_18]: Now he just had to go on leave.
[02:03:32] [SPEAKER_11]: She had to go on.
[02:03:34] [SPEAKER_18]: He just had to go. I'm sorry, man.
[02:03:36] [SPEAKER_11]: Now, what I would say is this, like I would say that you would get.
[02:03:42] [SPEAKER_11]: I kind of go all with poverty.
[02:03:44] [SPEAKER_11]: I mean, it's I think my impression of these roles from like and we can stop and look
[02:03:49] [SPEAKER_11]: like I'm all about if you want to if you want to figure out
[02:03:51] [SPEAKER_14]: I'm curious about the space travel.
[02:03:53] [SPEAKER_11]: If I would basically ask for a piloting row
[02:03:57] [SPEAKER_11]: to maneuver and then I would have somebody roll combat row.
[02:04:01] [SPEAKER_11]: Now you guys are at a disadvantage.
[02:04:03] [SPEAKER_11]: But then again, like I would say the mechanically, you could say.
[02:04:10] [SPEAKER_11]: You buff the pilot with like these are plans here.
[02:04:15] [SPEAKER_11]: And as long as Nima is following instructions, Josh rose well.
[02:04:19] [SPEAKER_11]: Josh succeeds.
[02:04:22] [SPEAKER_11]: That Josh is that's Josh's skill anyway.
[02:04:25] [SPEAKER_11]: I mean, that says wheelhouse.
[02:04:27] [SPEAKER_11]: So by you know, you can you can do you can line up the shot and then
[02:04:32] [SPEAKER_11]: mechanically I would give you a depending on the level of success
[02:04:39] [SPEAKER_11]: I mean, though you like the most basic aspect of it.
[02:04:43] [SPEAKER_11]: Like if you get one success, you can line up the shot with no and then I would say
[02:04:47] [SPEAKER_11]: with each with an additional six, you get a plus on the shot.
[02:04:50] [SPEAKER_11]: Now I'm going to go for I'm going to look up ship combat.
[02:04:53] [SPEAKER_18]: I'm actually looking at right now.
[02:04:55] [SPEAKER_18]: So like there are turn phases like the captain.
[02:04:58] [SPEAKER_18]: There's order phase, engineer phase, pilot phase, sensor phase and attack phase.
[02:05:03] [SPEAKER_11]: What page is that Chris?
[02:05:05] [SPEAKER_18]: That's one sixty six.
[02:05:07] [SPEAKER_11]: Base combat.
[02:05:08] [SPEAKER_18]: I just I just dove into like that chapter.
[02:05:11] [SPEAKER_11]: Now you're fine.
[02:05:13] [SPEAKER_11]: So initiative space combat is divided into turns like ground combat
[02:05:17] [SPEAKER_11]: and and a turn in space is longer usually several minutes.
[02:05:22] [SPEAKER_11]: Initiative scores determine at the beginning of the fight just like in
[02:05:27] [SPEAKER_11]: ground combat, but in space only captains of the engage ship row.
[02:05:32] [SPEAKER_11]: They roll command row.
[02:05:33] [SPEAKER_11]: The highest die.
[02:05:36] [SPEAKER_11]: Each captain road will be the ship's initiative score.
[02:05:41] [SPEAKER_11]: OK, so that would be our first step.
[02:05:44] [SPEAKER_11]: So basically you're given the order now.
[02:05:48] [SPEAKER_11]: I think the initiative and I need to double check the combat rules.
[02:05:52] [SPEAKER_11]: I think it just gives you a plus.
[02:05:53] [SPEAKER_11]: You could still fail.
[02:05:55] [SPEAKER_11]: I mean, you can still possibly fail.
[02:05:58] [SPEAKER_11]: I think you're getting a plus if you're ambushing somebody.
[02:06:01] Yeah.
[02:06:02] [SPEAKER_11]: So let me look at the ambush rules real quick.
[02:06:04] [SPEAKER_11]: I mean, I honestly, if you guys are cool,
[02:06:06] [SPEAKER_11]: this was I mean, we can do this like rules as written.
[02:06:10] [SPEAKER_11]: Yeah.
[02:06:11] [SPEAKER_11]: And I mean, Chris, you can take the liberties that you want to.
[02:06:17] [SPEAKER_18]: You know, this might end up being a part two of like this might end up being
[02:06:21] [SPEAKER_18]: a second part. Yeah, no, I'm fine with that.
[02:06:24] [SPEAKER_18]: Well, this is the other thing.
[02:06:25] [SPEAKER_18]: Is this ship?
[02:06:26] [SPEAKER_18]: Are we going to have a problem with this ship or like?
[02:06:31] [SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, I mean, if you I have something up my sleeve,
[02:06:34] [SPEAKER_11]: if you try to double cross her otherwise, I would have never went there.
[02:06:38] [SPEAKER_11]: So like, you know,
[02:06:39] [SPEAKER_11]: narratively, you guys have went in and you have
[02:06:45] [SPEAKER_11]: Heathered space to elencable.
[02:06:47] [SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, which was a really fun job for you to do.
[02:06:51] [SPEAKER_11]: You know, that's everything else.
[02:06:55] [SPEAKER_18]: Yeah. And then like my my suggestion to the captain and like for the ship
[02:06:59] [SPEAKER_18]: and stuff is like we tow it to the D'Boren system,
[02:07:02] [SPEAKER_18]: watching the cable, make sure there's no vine slowly growing and crouching up to our
[02:07:07] [SPEAKER_18]: ship, like hopefully she doesn't like be very like doesn't go all cunning on us.
[02:07:12] [SPEAKER_20]: And like, yeah, damn people with their like backstabbing.
[02:07:16] [SPEAKER_20]: How dare they?
[02:07:19] [SPEAKER_18]: Yeah, I know.
[02:07:21] [SPEAKER_18]: And then and then as soon as we hit the D'Boren system, we fucking tie.
[02:07:26] [SPEAKER_18]: Yeah, we cut ties with that ship and like contact the authorities or contact
[02:07:33] [SPEAKER_18]: contact our like commissioner.
[02:07:36] [SPEAKER_11]: So I'll tell you what, like basically
[02:07:41] [SPEAKER_11]: I give you a plus to to your initiative.
[02:07:45] [SPEAKER_11]: So if your command is the way it reads to me, like
[02:07:51] [SPEAKER_11]: let me read this word for word, overbate them to you.
[02:07:55] [SPEAKER_11]: The key to win the fight is often is attack the enemy when they
[02:07:58] [SPEAKER_11]: lose suspected or subways to do the surprise.
[02:08:02] [SPEAKER_11]: If the attack if you attack in a way that the GM didn't surprising to your enemy,
[02:08:06] [SPEAKER_11]: there you go, you get a plus two to your initiative score.
[02:08:10] [SPEAKER_11]: This can only occur the first time of the fight.
[02:08:14] [SPEAKER_11]: So I would say like we're rolling command for initiative anyway.
[02:08:20] [SPEAKER_11]: You got a plus two to it.
[02:08:22] [SPEAKER_11]: So you you're going to roll, in my opinion, to I'm looking up Chris on page 85 at
[02:08:27] [SPEAKER_11]: the pv at 87 of the pdf 85 of the book itself.
[02:08:32] [SPEAKER_11]: That's going to add to put two extra dice to the command row that you row.
[02:08:37] [SPEAKER_17]: That's in the combat section there.
[02:08:40] [SPEAKER_11]: Yeah.
[02:08:40] [SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, it's I think it's combat.
[02:08:43] [SPEAKER_11]: It's like I said, page 85 in the book here.
[02:08:46] [SPEAKER_11]: It says sneak attacks and ambushes.
[02:08:48] [SPEAKER_11]: Because it's not a sneak attack because you're not doing the infiltration.
[02:08:51] [SPEAKER_11]: So an ambush is a special kind of sneak attack.
[02:08:53] [SPEAKER_11]: So like I said, narratively, you've set this up.
[02:08:56] [SPEAKER_11]: You've shown goodwill.
[02:08:58] [SPEAKER_11]: You're towing the ship back.
[02:09:00] [SPEAKER_11]: You're like.
[02:09:02] [SPEAKER_18]: I will say we're going to back.
[02:09:04] [SPEAKER_18]: We're back. We're we're ambushing a la backstabbing her like double crossing her.
[02:09:10] [SPEAKER_18]: OK.
[02:09:11] [SPEAKER_18]: I mean, that could also count as a surprise attack.
[02:09:15] [SPEAKER_18]: Which is does the same thing like honestly, just gives it plus two
[02:09:17] [SPEAKER_18]: to modifier.
[02:09:21] [SPEAKER_11]: So you row, you're going to roll off against me on.
[02:09:26] [SPEAKER_11]: I think I like it.
[02:09:27] [SPEAKER_11]: Well, my captain would be a person like her.
[02:09:30] [SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, which I never did give you a name, even though I did have it.
[02:09:33] [SPEAKER_11]: It just never really mechanically came up and I could.
[02:09:36] [SPEAKER_11]: Yeah. And I didn't introduce myself.
[02:09:39] [SPEAKER_11]: I'm very bad about that in real life, too.
[02:09:45] [SPEAKER_18]: It's fine.
[02:09:45] [SPEAKER_18]: She's the she's the crazy 200 year old plant doctor.
[02:09:49] [SPEAKER_18]: Yeah.
[02:09:50] [SPEAKER_11]: So and then when you do that,
[02:09:53] [SPEAKER_11]: I would say that's going to give you like you row initiative.
[02:09:57] [SPEAKER_11]: You beat her if you if you beat her, then that's basically going to open up.
[02:10:03] [SPEAKER_11]: You got the buff to the combat.
[02:10:04] [SPEAKER_11]: And I mean, honestly, at this point, I just seem to say buff combat buff
[02:10:10] [SPEAKER_11]: buff piloting because you've kind of given two commands.
[02:10:13] [SPEAKER_11]: Nima is given.
[02:10:14] [SPEAKER_11]: I mean, one has given Nima and Zed
[02:10:17] [SPEAKER_11]: two commands.
[02:10:18] [SPEAKER_17]: Yeah.
[02:10:20] [SPEAKER_17]: Also, what's the class of our ship?
[02:10:22] [SPEAKER_17]: Is it like a class?
[02:10:23] [SPEAKER_11]: That's it's listed there's Nazar.
[02:10:28] [SPEAKER_11]: Nazar, not Nazarene and Jesus, but
[02:10:31] [SPEAKER_11]: Nazareth, I think it's it's.
[02:10:34] [SPEAKER_18]: I think I actually have this ship that does actually count for like actions
[02:10:39] [SPEAKER_18]: you can take during combat.
[02:10:41] [SPEAKER_18]: So just not that that matters right now.
[02:10:43] [SPEAKER_16]: It's a scarab.
[02:10:44] [SPEAKER_16]: The scarab. OK, what's a scarab?
[02:10:47] [SPEAKER_11]: I am looking to see what I'm I'm I'm it's a scarab.
[02:10:52] [SPEAKER_11]: I know it's a scarab ship.
[02:10:54] [SPEAKER_11]: I have no idea, like I said, I we're off the page.
[02:10:58] [SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, Josh, are you awake?
[02:11:01] [SPEAKER_07]: OK, just listen enough.
[02:11:03] [SPEAKER_07]: Get it double.
[02:11:04] [SPEAKER_11]: There is a precedence and I just want it happened one time.
[02:11:08] [SPEAKER_07]: I'm not David did it multiple times.
[02:11:11] [SPEAKER_11]: That's true, sir.
[02:11:13] [SPEAKER_11]: Like I say it because I love you.
[02:11:16] [SPEAKER_11]: But spaceships and star travel.
[02:11:19] [SPEAKER_11]: I'm pretty sick.
[02:11:20] [SPEAKER_01]: Hell is yeah, I'm trying to look for the scarab.
[02:11:26] [SPEAKER_11]: Cybernetic symbiotics, you can get a space suit that makes you look like an octopus.
[02:11:30] [SPEAKER_20]: Was it a space suit?
[02:11:31] [SPEAKER_20]: That's an octopus.
[02:11:34] [SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, I mean, there's arms on them.
[02:11:36] [SPEAKER_11]: There's all kinds of botics.
[02:11:37] [SPEAKER_11]: I mean, you can dock yourself on this thing.
[02:11:41] [SPEAKER_17]: OK, so a.
[02:11:48] [SPEAKER_17]: OK.
[02:11:51] [SPEAKER_17]: Maybe not. Hang on.
[02:11:52] [SPEAKER_17]: Sorry.
[02:11:55] [SPEAKER_10]: On shipyards.
[02:11:59] [SPEAKER_18]: OK, so yeah, for three of us.
[02:12:03] [SPEAKER_18]: On a scare, but for class two shoot.
[02:12:08] [SPEAKER_11]: Looking up everything about ships except what I need.
[02:12:11] [SPEAKER_20]: Found the scarab sheet.
[02:12:13] [SPEAKER_20]: Assuming you already found that too.
[02:12:15] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, it's a class three ship.
[02:12:21] [SPEAKER_11]: It's a whole other game with the ship.
[02:12:24] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[02:12:25] [SPEAKER_17]: That's likely.
[02:12:27] [SPEAKER_17]: I'm guessing it's a standard model.
[02:12:31] [SPEAKER_18]: Has an accelerator cannon countermeasure dispenser.
[02:12:35] [SPEAKER_18]: OK, I mean, yeah, you can streamline this a little bit.
[02:12:40] [SPEAKER_18]: So we got a plus two because we are well,
[02:12:41] [SPEAKER_18]: depending on how well the captain rolls against her, we might get a plus two.
[02:12:49] [SPEAKER_18]: And then basically, I think
[02:12:50] [SPEAKER_18]: what best case scenario we nothing goes wrong on the way there.
[02:12:56] [SPEAKER_18]: And then when we get to our destination,
[02:12:59] [SPEAKER_18]: there might be a bit of a scuffle when we disconnect the tether unexpectedly.
[02:13:04] [SPEAKER_20]: So I like that all these ships have a problem and the problem with the blockade
[02:13:08] [SPEAKER_20]: runner version is curse.
[02:13:14] [SPEAKER_08]: Yes, everyone's like a war.
[02:13:15] [SPEAKER_08]: That is awesome.
[02:13:16] [SPEAKER_20]: Passengership is unreliable sensors blockade runner curse.
[02:13:22] [SPEAKER_20]: Fuck.
[02:13:23] [SPEAKER_17]: I love that.
[02:13:25] [SPEAKER_18]: Well, because this game, this game has supernatural elements in the spirit.
[02:13:29] [SPEAKER_11]: In the sci fi.
[02:13:30] [SPEAKER_11]: You've got a you've got like at least
[02:13:32] [SPEAKER_11]: a not a tangible, but there's an evil force like the darkness,
[02:13:37] [SPEAKER_11]: like it enroaches from space, like even if you travel one of the way we
[02:13:41] [SPEAKER_11]: generate darkness points is if you travel in deep space away from society and all
[02:13:45] [SPEAKER_11]: that, you generate darkness points just because you're further from the light.
[02:13:51] [SPEAKER_18]: Yeah, there is literally an evil presence in the darkness between stars.
[02:13:56] [SPEAKER_11]: Yeah.
[02:13:59] [SPEAKER_18]: OK, so I guess we do the command roll for initiative.
[02:14:04] [SPEAKER_11]: Does he say command roll for initiative?
[02:14:07] [SPEAKER_11]: And then
[02:14:08] [SPEAKER_11]: like we will let honestly just expedite things to you.
[02:14:12] [SPEAKER_11]: I feel like I would ask you.
[02:14:14] [SPEAKER_11]: I would have been asked to pilot that name and make her row his row.
[02:14:18] [SPEAKER_11]: Excuse me.
[02:14:19] [SPEAKER_11]: And then Zeb would make his row.
[02:14:21] [SPEAKER_11]: And I would even say, depending on.
[02:14:25] [SPEAKER_11]: Because you're honestly, you're kind of crippled in with because your best person
[02:14:28] [SPEAKER_11]: for shooting isn't there.
[02:14:30] [SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, I would even say just how soon it seems fair to me that if the ships
[02:14:34] [SPEAKER_11]: lined up perfectly and the maneuver goes off, then you have the perfect shot too.
[02:14:37] [SPEAKER_11]: So I would even give you the plus.
[02:14:42] [SPEAKER_11]: The same plus is the ambush.
[02:14:45] [SPEAKER_11]: OK, yeah, I would say I'd give you a plus.
[02:14:47] [SPEAKER_11]: I would give you the I would give you a plus on your shooting as well.
[02:14:51] [SPEAKER_11]: OK, this point, I mean, dude, your tone of rope.
[02:14:54] [SPEAKER_11]: There's like no sense.
[02:14:55] [SPEAKER_11]: It's not a sense of shit like you could.
[02:14:59] [SPEAKER_18]: Yeah, exactly.
[02:15:00] [SPEAKER_18]: And like the thing I was thinking of is like we like I just wanted to have the
[02:15:02] [SPEAKER_18]: guns on the like at the end of the toke, like pointing at the end of the
[02:15:07] [SPEAKER_18]: toke, just in case like she starts poking vines at like again,
[02:15:12] [SPEAKER_18]: I'm concerned that she's going to try and like
[02:15:15] [SPEAKER_18]: keep us connected via the vines.
[02:15:18] [SPEAKER_18]: So.
[02:15:20] [SPEAKER_20]: I do something like that because we didn't talk about plans.
[02:15:29] [SPEAKER_18]: OK, so yeah, so do we have Dr.
[02:15:31] [SPEAKER_18]: Wanda to do the commands for initiative if we're back?
[02:15:35] [SPEAKER_20]: So we're back.
[02:15:37] [SPEAKER_11]: But we're back.
[02:15:39] [SPEAKER_20]: Oh, I think so.
[02:15:41] [SPEAKER_11]: So yeah, yeah, I think we're ready to go.
[02:15:44] [SPEAKER_11]: So let's go ahead and do a roll off on our.
[02:15:50] [SPEAKER_11]: Our command so you are rolling what again?
[02:15:56] [SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, I'm going to rope man post empathy.
[02:16:00] [SPEAKER_11]: You get you're getting a plus two on that.
[02:16:07] [SPEAKER_20]: Oh, fuck, I got to put up a backstop that dice just went down behind my table gone forever.
[02:16:17] [SPEAKER_11]: If only you had an easy roller dice cup and an easy row and die sock to God.
[02:16:21] [SPEAKER_11]: If one had those, it would stop it.
[02:16:24] [SPEAKER_11]: Now they do fall into four.
[02:16:26] [SPEAKER_11]: I found that out.
[02:16:28] [SPEAKER_20]: OK.
[02:16:30] [SPEAKER_20]: So I'm not a fan of that role, so I'm going to spend the darkness point.
[02:16:37] [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, here is a curse.
[02:16:40] [SPEAKER_01]: By every waking breath.
[02:16:44] [SPEAKER_01]: And I cannot escape the darkness.
[02:16:49] [SPEAKER_01]: Sorry, thank you.
[02:16:50] [SPEAKER_11]: Along some what vocals of those four bastards?
[02:17:00] [SPEAKER_19]: That's a little better.
[02:17:01] [SPEAKER_20]: Well, that time.
[02:17:06] [SPEAKER_19]: Got one.
[02:17:09] [SPEAKER_01]: Then I'm going to spit it out.
[02:17:11] [SPEAKER_11]: I got two sixes as well.
[02:17:14] [SPEAKER_11]: So we tied.
[02:17:16] [SPEAKER_11]: So what was that?
[02:17:17] [SPEAKER_11]: Let me double check.
[02:17:18] [SPEAKER_11]: What was the rules?
[02:17:19] [SPEAKER_11]: You get the fact that you are?
[02:17:21] [SPEAKER_11]: Yes.
[02:17:22] [SPEAKER_11]: Did you wrote a plus two die as well?
[02:17:26] [SPEAKER_17]: OK, this sounds in the case of a tie,
[02:17:29] [SPEAKER_17]: the number of dice showing the highest number determines who goes first.
[02:17:35] [SPEAKER_18]: Two five beats one five, for example.
[02:17:40] [SPEAKER_11]: The highest number I have three outside of it's outside of six.
[02:17:48] [SPEAKER_19]: Cool.
[02:17:48] [SPEAKER_11]: It's you.
[02:17:49] [SPEAKER_11]: Boom.
[02:17:50] [SPEAKER_11]: You get the order now, Neema.
[02:17:54] [SPEAKER_11]: Like what's making it a piloting row?
[02:17:58] [SPEAKER_11]: Line it up.
[02:17:59] [SPEAKER_11]: I'm scaffolding these roads, unfortunately.
[02:18:03] [SPEAKER_13]: Get you got darkness points that you can spend.
[02:18:07] [SPEAKER_12]: Hello, darkness mild.
[02:18:09] [SPEAKER_13]: Do you really want this game to end?
[02:18:14] [SPEAKER_06]: Shit, I was made.
[02:18:15] [SPEAKER_06]: Damn it.
[02:18:17] [SPEAKER_06]: Am I being commanded to do this?
[02:18:20] [SPEAKER_10]: Yes, plus one.
[02:18:22] [SPEAKER_12]: All I need are one, two, three, sixes.
[02:18:25] [SPEAKER_12]: Nine dice.
[02:18:27] [SPEAKER_05]: Come on, Josh, roll semi decently for once.
[02:18:33] [SPEAKER_05]: Come on, Dave, shout a row dice.
[02:18:35] [SPEAKER_05]: Come on.
[02:18:38] [SPEAKER_05]: I'll find this hard to believe.
[02:18:44] [SPEAKER_05]: There's no six in here.
[02:18:46] [SPEAKER_16]: Are you serious?
[02:18:49] [SPEAKER_10]: Josh, do you want to re-roll?
[02:18:52] [SPEAKER_04]: I'm going to.
[02:18:54] [SPEAKER_18]: You're not going to what?
[02:18:55] [SPEAKER_04]: I am going to.
[02:18:57] [SPEAKER_18]: OK, sorry.
[02:19:00] [SPEAKER_18]: I'm going to crank up the volume.
[02:19:02] [SPEAKER_02]: Come on, Yatsi.
[02:19:04] [SPEAKER_02]: Capsic.
[02:19:11] [SPEAKER_15]: You serious?
[02:19:12] [SPEAKER_03]: I'm not kidding.
[02:19:14] [SPEAKER_15]: Josh, there are nine dice.
[02:19:18] [SPEAKER_15]: You know how many fives I roll.
[02:19:21] [SPEAKER_07]: Oh, my God.
[02:19:22] [SPEAKER_11]: You wrote 18 dice and not a single six.
[02:19:26] [SPEAKER_07]: That is unlikely.
[02:19:30] [SPEAKER_18]: God, this is red markets levels of breaking math.
[02:19:35] [SPEAKER_11]: Like I mean, I'm rolling for your combat.
[02:19:38] [SPEAKER_04]: I should have gotten it three times.
[02:19:40] [SPEAKER_04]: I should have at least had three sixes.
[02:19:43] [SPEAKER_13]: God, I guess I guess Dave ate up all that.
[02:19:47] [SPEAKER_20]: Yeah, and he wrote like three sixes.
[02:19:49] [SPEAKER_20]: I was asking something about combat.
[02:19:50] [SPEAKER_20]: I have.
[02:19:53] [SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, Chris, how are you going to roll?
[02:19:55] [SPEAKER_11]: What's your combat for shooting the guns?
[02:19:58] [SPEAKER_18]: I have no range combat.
[02:20:03] [SPEAKER_18]: Would it be combat?
[02:20:04] [SPEAKER_11]: There's no range.
[02:20:05] [SPEAKER_18]: Yeah. Oh, no. OK.
[02:20:07] [SPEAKER_11]: So you're you're pulling it behind.
[02:20:11] [SPEAKER_11]: You're pulling a sled behind the four wheeler.
[02:20:13] [SPEAKER_00]: Can I use my technology to like?
[02:20:16] [SPEAKER_11]: You know what? Yeah, to give you a shot.
[02:20:18] [SPEAKER_11]: Like, OK, you know,
[02:20:20] [SPEAKER_11]: was there somebody listening out there that appears like?
[02:20:24] [SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, he could take me.
[02:20:26] [SPEAKER_11]: I want to let this go before the record.
[02:20:28] [SPEAKER_11]: Like when I ran Delta Green, he's like, you should have killed me.
[02:20:30] [SPEAKER_11]: And when I get an opportunity to try to kill you, then you're like,
[02:20:33] [SPEAKER_18]: could I run technology?
[02:20:35] [SPEAKER_18]: I mean, OK, if you want me to roll my just my agility, I'll fucking roll it.
[02:20:41] [SPEAKER_11]: The I've honestly wrote your technology because
[02:20:43] [SPEAKER_11]: the character that would done it is gone.
[02:20:47] [SPEAKER_11]: And I would like you to have a shooting.
[02:20:48] [SPEAKER_11]: I will even give you the plus one from the command.
[02:20:51] [SPEAKER_18]: Also, don't get a plus two.
[02:20:52] [SPEAKER_18]: Being able to.
[02:20:56] [SPEAKER_18]: Well, no, because of the initiative,
[02:20:58] [SPEAKER_18]: like, didn't you say, like if we got the initiative or if we.
[02:21:02] [SPEAKER_11]: Like a plus two is to the initiative row.
[02:21:04] [SPEAKER_11]: So action first. Yeah, it doesn't it doesn't apply to everybody else.
[02:21:07] [SPEAKER_11]: What I was going to do is I was going to have things stacked,
[02:21:09] [SPEAKER_11]: like if Josh got at least two sixes and I will.
[02:21:13] [SPEAKER_11]: I mean, I was going to give you bonuses for however he lands.
[02:21:16] [SPEAKER_11]: I mean, if he did he break the does it does it bump up against the guns
[02:21:20] [SPEAKER_11]: and you open fire, you know what I mean?
[02:21:22] [SPEAKER_18]: So yeah. OK, so so what was his piloting for?
[02:21:25] [SPEAKER_18]: Just to like get us there or to like disengage the maneuver and disengage.
[02:21:29] [SPEAKER_18]: OK, so that didn't work.
[02:21:31] [SPEAKER_18]: He didn't disengage the the cable.
[02:21:32] [SPEAKER_18]: So I'm just going to shoot the cable.
[02:21:36] [SPEAKER_11]: Sounds good. OK, I'll act.
[02:21:39] [SPEAKER_18]: Are you are you ordering this?
[02:21:40] [SPEAKER_18]: Is this an order?
[02:21:42] [SPEAKER_11]: It was an order. Yeah.
[02:21:44] [SPEAKER_18]: OK, yeah, I just want to make sure
[02:21:47] [SPEAKER_18]: that I'm rolling.
[02:21:48] [SPEAKER_07]: I want to die next to this.
[02:21:50] [SPEAKER_07]: That should be a nice you have to be able to get ahead.
[02:21:52] [SPEAKER_18]: I can break math. Yeah.
[02:21:57] [SPEAKER_11]: Say this, I will say this because I'm let me raise the ante for you.
[02:22:01] [SPEAKER_11]: Like you gave me two darkness points and that's all I need to make vines work.
[02:22:06] [SPEAKER_11]: So as things become looking iffy like, you know,
[02:22:11] [SPEAKER_11]: if you try a base gap,
[02:22:12] [SPEAKER_11]: I think you probably tried to like
[02:22:15] [SPEAKER_11]: like slowly decelerate and hit the gas kind of trying to break the line that you
[02:22:20] [SPEAKER_11]: had tethered to it. It didn't quite work something's up.
[02:22:23] [SPEAKER_11]: So out of the front of the ship, out of the glass,
[02:22:27] [SPEAKER_11]: you see just like this vines just like break through.
[02:22:30] [SPEAKER_11]: Now it's racing towards your ship, Chris.
[02:22:34] [SPEAKER_11]: You are getting ready to shoot.
[02:22:36] [SPEAKER_11]: Now, if you make this,
[02:22:38] [SPEAKER_11]: you're good. But if not, like these are repercussions.
[02:22:42] [SPEAKER_11]: This is my move I'm making.
[02:22:43] [SPEAKER_17]: Yeah, no, I understand.
[02:22:45] [SPEAKER_18]: She's OK.
[02:22:47] [SPEAKER_18]: So yeah, because because like the way he
[02:22:52] [SPEAKER_18]: power over his piloting is like he decelerated and then tried to accelerate again.
[02:22:58] [SPEAKER_18]: Suddenly, it's a time break the cable.
[02:22:59] [SPEAKER_11]: Yeah. So I mean, there's various degrees of failure and stuff like that.
[02:23:03] [SPEAKER_11]: And I think as a GM, I think that's up to me to decide.
[02:23:06] [SPEAKER_11]: It seems to me the most logical one is the fact that he failed it means that
[02:23:11] [SPEAKER_11]: like she realizes something's up.
[02:23:13] [SPEAKER_11]: So and I actually had enough darkness points accumulated from those two failures
[02:23:17] [SPEAKER_11]: that you all had to actually do more.
[02:23:20] [SPEAKER_11]: So you were honestly at the fun part is like you're desperate enough to want
[02:23:24] [SPEAKER_11]: to take my devil's bargain, but at the same time now you got to face
[02:23:27] [SPEAKER_11]: a repercussion. So we'll see if you beat it.
[02:23:30] [SPEAKER_18]: Oh, please, sweet gambler, as I like to call him, easy roller dice dot com.
[02:23:34] [SPEAKER_18]: Right. Can I pray to the icons?
[02:23:37] [SPEAKER_06]: Technically, I forgot about that.
[02:23:42] [SPEAKER_11]: Well, you pray to the icons prior like you can kind of do things prior or you
[02:23:46] [SPEAKER_11]: could basically do it again.
[02:23:47] [SPEAKER_11]: I mean, you're generating more points.
[02:23:49] [SPEAKER_11]: We'll look into that more later because I got out of nine dice.
[02:23:54] [SPEAKER_14]: I got one six.
[02:23:56] [SPEAKER_11]: Well, you can.
[02:23:57] [SPEAKER_11]: You're allowed to row your nine dice again.
[02:24:04] [SPEAKER_11]: Or eight dice and keep your six.
[02:24:07] [SPEAKER_11]: But you're giving me another point to operate with.
[02:24:09] [SPEAKER_11]: So do you want to double down gambler?
[02:24:12] [SPEAKER_14]: Should I double down, guys?
[02:24:15] [SPEAKER_14]: Better than Josh.
[02:24:17] [SPEAKER_09]: I'm already doing better than me.
[02:24:18] [SPEAKER_14]: I'm doing it. I'm doing it.
[02:24:20] [SPEAKER_14]: I'm doing it.
[02:24:21] [SPEAKER_14]: Yeah.
[02:24:22] [SPEAKER_09]: Easy roller dice.
[02:24:23] [SPEAKER_16]: Dot com.
[02:24:27] [SPEAKER_16]: OK, that's better.
[02:24:28] [SPEAKER_16]: OK, that's another two sixes.
[02:24:32] [SPEAKER_16]: Pretty total.
[02:24:33] [SPEAKER_16]: So that's three sixes in total.
[02:24:36] [SPEAKER_11]: The gun erupts pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop your gun.
[02:24:39] [SPEAKER_11]: You're not you're not a good shot.
[02:24:42] [SPEAKER_11]: I'm just like, oh, yeah, you just it's it's it's akin to Blaine Blaine's death
[02:24:48] [SPEAKER_11]: and predator and macarons up and picks up the chain gun.
[02:24:51] [SPEAKER_11]: Is this like it's a spray and pray thing?
[02:24:54] [SPEAKER_11]: You just say, but I would I would say with two
[02:25:00] [SPEAKER_11]: successes you managed to you break the rope.
[02:25:04] [SPEAKER_11]: You shoot it.
[02:25:06] [SPEAKER_11]: There's a brief moment.
[02:25:07] [SPEAKER_11]: There's a brief moment when you hear it.
[02:25:10] [SPEAKER_11]: You're something hit the exterior of the ship, but you gun it.
[02:25:13] [SPEAKER_11]: Boom.
[02:25:14] [SPEAKER_11]: Vine breaks away.
[02:25:16] [SPEAKER_11]: And yeah, the ship with the dark flower.
[02:25:21] [SPEAKER_11]: It's just floating in space as you rock it away with your.
[02:25:29] [SPEAKER_11]: Half house.
[02:25:29] [SPEAKER_16]: Your legs.
[02:25:33] [SPEAKER_16]: High fives.
[02:25:36] [SPEAKER_18]: So.
[02:25:38] [SPEAKER_18]: Yeah.
[02:25:40] [SPEAKER_18]: Captain, you may want to contact the authorities and maybe get them to like.
[02:25:44] [SPEAKER_18]: Maybe just check our ship on the outside.
[02:25:46] [SPEAKER_18]: Like we may need to get our ship checked before we go anywhere.
[02:25:53] [SPEAKER_18]: Nothing I don't trust that that 200 year old bitch, but I don't trust her.
[02:25:58] [SPEAKER_20]: OK, get him on the horn.
[02:26:01] [SPEAKER_18]: Yep.
[02:26:02] [SPEAKER_18]: Yeah, I just slumped back into my gutter shoulder.
[02:26:05] [SPEAKER_18]: You did good.
[02:26:10] [SPEAKER_20]: Probably older than I am.
[02:26:12] [SPEAKER_11]: So you make the you make the phone call or phone call.
[02:26:17] [SPEAKER_11]: Space phone call you radio in with your contact.
[02:26:21] [SPEAKER_11]: You tell them and you do you tell them everything about the ship?
[02:26:24] [SPEAKER_19]: Which contact are you talking about?
[02:26:25] [SPEAKER_19]: Station.
[02:26:26] [SPEAKER_19]: Sure.
[02:26:27] [SPEAKER_19]: Well, yeah.
[02:26:29] [SPEAKER_11]: That was actually I think it was going back.
[02:26:32] [SPEAKER_11]: It was the professor that was on the other ship was a university professor.
[02:26:37] [SPEAKER_11]: So it's as a government officials that are, you know,
[02:26:41] [SPEAKER_11]: they were acting on behalf of the university is acting on behalf.
[02:26:44] [SPEAKER_11]: So it's the bar and government that you contact you inform them.
[02:26:48] [SPEAKER_11]: I guess you say you tell them everything?
[02:26:51] [SPEAKER_18]: I mean, yeah, I'd recommend to the captain.
[02:26:55] [SPEAKER_18]: They should probably know about this.
[02:26:57] [SPEAKER_18]: This thing regardless.
[02:26:59] [SPEAKER_18]: So they know what to get into.
[02:27:00] [SPEAKER_20]: Check the place out, see if we can rescue the people and leave.
[02:27:04] [SPEAKER_20]: This is way above our pay grade.
[02:27:07] [SPEAKER_20]: So I'm telling them everything and I'm going to also tell them that I'm going to
[02:27:11] [SPEAKER_20]: as soon as I get off the phone with you guys, I'm going to be
[02:27:13] [SPEAKER_20]: contacting the authorities from the planet that she's from for them to.
[02:27:20] [SPEAKER_20]: Or yeah.
[02:27:22] [SPEAKER_11]: The board in the same.
[02:27:23] [SPEAKER_20]: All right.
[02:27:24] [SPEAKER_18]: You're basically contacting the same people.
[02:27:26] [SPEAKER_11]: Yeah.
[02:27:26] [SPEAKER_11]: Yeah.
[02:27:28] [SPEAKER_11]: It's like it's the government was like working with the university on this.
[02:27:32] [SPEAKER_11]: It was a government that sent they thought that they had located the
[02:27:38] [SPEAKER_11]: a law spaceship, a man on a station.
[02:27:41] [SPEAKER_11]: That's why the university sent a gap here.
[02:27:43] [SPEAKER_11]: But yeah, so you.
[02:27:45] [SPEAKER_11]: You make.
[02:27:49] [SPEAKER_18]: Perhaps perhaps maybe also leverage some extra fee or some extra money for
[02:27:55] [SPEAKER_18]: our services rendered.
[02:27:57] [SPEAKER_20]: Yeah, I mean,
[02:27:59] [SPEAKER_20]: I mean, I could roll for it.
[02:28:01] [SPEAKER_20]: Is there a role for that?
[02:28:02] [SPEAKER_18]: Zeb, it would be it'd be manipulation, I think.
[02:28:07] [SPEAKER_11]: I'm going to give you a negative on the manipulation.
[02:28:09] [SPEAKER_11]: I mean, do it, but I'm going to give you like the job was for the professor
[02:28:14] [SPEAKER_11]: and or ship and you've really delivered neither you basically.
[02:28:19] [SPEAKER_11]: What is it?
[02:28:20] [SPEAKER_11]: Is it to behind?
[02:28:22] [SPEAKER_13]: No, like it's important.
[02:28:23] [SPEAKER_16]: That's why there is a biohazard on that ship.
[02:28:27] [SPEAKER_13]: But they knew where the court, if they had the coordinates in the beginning.
[02:28:31] [SPEAKER_13]: You do see what I'm saying in the boring.
[02:28:34] [SPEAKER_16]: It's in the deborin system that we brought it in system.
[02:28:38] [SPEAKER_11]: You bought it more in system.
[02:28:39] [SPEAKER_11]: Yes. And I mean, so here's the deal.
[02:28:41] [SPEAKER_11]: OK, I like how I like this.
[02:28:43] [SPEAKER_11]: I just make the row.
[02:28:45] [SPEAKER_11]: I'm going to look.
[02:28:46] [SPEAKER_11]: Take away one die.
[02:28:47] [SPEAKER_11]: All right.
[02:28:48] [SPEAKER_11]: Take a one way, way one die.
[02:28:49] [SPEAKER_11]: When let's die.
[02:28:50] [SPEAKER_11]: One less die.
[02:28:52] [SPEAKER_11]: Now we should start a podcast about that.
[02:28:54] [SPEAKER_00]: But yeah, I'm glad we thought of it.
[02:28:58] [SPEAKER_11]: But yeah, go ahead and make that make that row with the negative die.
[02:29:02] [SPEAKER_11]: And if you succeed, you'll get the ship fee,
[02:29:06] [SPEAKER_11]: which was pretty decent.
[02:29:08] [SPEAKER_11]: I can't remember the number, but it was it was nice.
[02:29:11] [SPEAKER_11]: It was a wealth of family.
[02:29:12] [SPEAKER_20]: And I wrote down plus two manipulation on it,
[02:29:15] [SPEAKER_20]: which I believe it gives me a plus two
[02:29:17] [SPEAKER_20]: for manipulation when I'm leveraging my
[02:29:21] [SPEAKER_20]: my wealthy family in regards to manipulation checks.
[02:29:26] [SPEAKER_18]: Oh, my God.
[02:29:28] [SPEAKER_20]: Yeah, do you know who my dad is?
[02:29:31] [SPEAKER_20]: Do you know who my dad is in this?
[02:29:33] [SPEAKER_20]: I was going to.
[02:29:34] [SPEAKER_20]: Hello.
[02:29:38] [SPEAKER_11]: You want to do that?
[02:29:39] [SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, at like, at give yourself a plus one on top of taking away the negative.
[02:29:44] [SPEAKER_11]: If I will let you like, you're an archaeologist,
[02:29:47] [SPEAKER_11]: though you are shamed and all that, you still come from wealthy family.
[02:29:53] [SPEAKER_11]: You're important people.
[02:29:56] [SPEAKER_11]: It's not going to be a national
[02:29:57] [SPEAKER_11]: like an international incident or anything like it.
[02:30:00] [SPEAKER_11]: But yeah, it's going to be it'd be nice to not have you hate their guts kind of thing.
[02:30:05] [SPEAKER_20]: Like order yourself to do it.
[02:30:07] [SPEAKER_20]: Yeah, I'll do that.
[02:30:09] [SPEAKER_20]: So it's a manipulation plus one, you said?
[02:30:16] [SPEAKER_09]: Yes.
[02:30:17] [SPEAKER_20]: It's these two plus one of these
[02:30:32] [SPEAKER_20]: and a one.
[02:30:38] [SPEAKER_11]: One is a success.
[02:30:40] [SPEAKER_11]: So I'll say that you'll get that they look at all right.
[02:30:43] [SPEAKER_11]: It's a little closer to us here.
[02:30:46] [SPEAKER_11]: You could we'll go ahead and give you the feed for the ship.
[02:30:50] [SPEAKER_11]: And that's it.
[02:30:51] [SPEAKER_11]: But we're this is probably last time we're dealing with you.
[02:30:56] [SPEAKER_11]: So like, you'll you'll get which was a decent amount of money anyway for the
[02:31:00] [SPEAKER_11]: ship and then like so you didn't get the double award of ship and everything else.
[02:31:05] [SPEAKER_11]: But you got that.
[02:31:07] [SPEAKER_11]: Thankfully, it's not shot up because, you know, you shot the rope
[02:31:11] [SPEAKER_11]: and all that, so no deductions like that.
[02:31:14] [SPEAKER_11]: So yeah, you get you see later that
[02:31:16] [SPEAKER_11]: the money is wired to your account.
[02:31:21] [SPEAKER_11]: And you continue on your way and sorry.
[02:31:25] [SPEAKER_18]: Is this the end?
[02:31:27] [SPEAKER_18]: I was going to say sorry.
[02:31:29] [SPEAKER_11]: You're you days, weeks, you always kind of pay you paid a bit more attention
[02:31:35] [SPEAKER_11]: after the fact of news or the bar.
[02:31:38] [SPEAKER_11]: It's a debarring news like
[02:31:42] [SPEAKER_11]: you you never really you never really hear anything.
[02:31:45] [SPEAKER_11]: You don't know whatever happened when they encountered like the person on the
[02:31:49] [SPEAKER_11]: ship, you never hear anything about the
[02:31:54] [SPEAKER_11]: space station that you found.
[02:31:55] [SPEAKER_11]: You hear nothing.
[02:31:57] [SPEAKER_11]: And that's but and that's comforting.
[02:32:00] [SPEAKER_11]: But yet you know people and you know how people are not people in particular,
[02:32:06] [SPEAKER_11]: but you know how human nature is and you're always doubting like you're
[02:32:11] [SPEAKER_11]: somewhere you're always wondering if you made the right decision.
[02:32:16] [SPEAKER_11]: You're sometimes you're wondering if you shouldn't have just stood up at
[02:32:19] [SPEAKER_11]: our auditorium, you're sometimes wondering all that, but you never find out
[02:32:25] [SPEAKER_11]: the growth you do, you know, after the phone call.
[02:32:29] [SPEAKER_11]: You do like a space walk when you get away
[02:32:33] [SPEAKER_11]: and check it out and you do see in fact where the vine hit.
[02:32:38] [SPEAKER_11]: And you do notice that a small two or three foot space of your ship now has
[02:32:46] [SPEAKER_11]: looks like moss growing out.
[02:32:49] [SPEAKER_18]: No, it does not.
[02:32:51] [SPEAKER_11]: Zeb.
[02:32:52] [SPEAKER_18]: Plasma takes
[02:32:55] [SPEAKER_11]: Zeb takes his butane plasmators outside and
[02:32:58] [SPEAKER_20]: the entire windshield if you have to replace it.
[02:33:04] [SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, it was I mean the underside of the ship the way I kind of.
[02:33:09] [SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, but you you toast it off.
[02:33:12] [SPEAKER_11]: There's a little uneasy.
[02:33:14] [SPEAKER_11]: Some of you took your if you took your ship, your
[02:33:18] [SPEAKER_11]: exosuit off, falling in the ship, you kind of regretted having it like am I
[02:33:21] [SPEAKER_11]: breathing that stuff in?
[02:33:23] [SPEAKER_11]: But nothing levels never changed in the ship.
[02:33:26] [SPEAKER_11]: You never see any unknown contaminants located on the ship through the reports.
[02:33:31] [SPEAKER_11]: And you go about the rest of your rest of your journey.
[02:33:36] [SPEAKER_11]: You probably had that ship thoroughly scoured elsewhere, but yeah,
[02:33:39] [SPEAKER_11]: for a long period of time, it's in the back of your head.
[02:33:43] [SPEAKER_11]: Just like if you're in real life, if your basement flooded and you notice
[02:33:46] [SPEAKER_11]: black mold growing somewhere and you took bleach in a toothbrush and scrubbed
[02:33:51] [SPEAKER_11]: it off and you're always wondering, did I get it all?
[02:33:55] [SPEAKER_11]: It's just in the back of your head.
[02:33:57] [SPEAKER_18]: And that is sorry.
[02:33:59] [SPEAKER_11]: Now, that's it.
[02:34:00] [SPEAKER_18]: I was just going to say like every time we pass
[02:34:02] [SPEAKER_18]: Deborin, I'm looking out to see if I see the desert of the bleach desert sands
[02:34:08] [SPEAKER_18]: down on the surface or green.
[02:34:11] [SPEAKER_20]: And I want to say as Zeb is like plasma torching
[02:34:17] [SPEAKER_20]: all the moss off, I want to take out that little sample that I took earlier
[02:34:21] [SPEAKER_20]: and put it on the I took a sample of it.
[02:34:23] [SPEAKER_20]: Remember what?
[02:34:25] [SPEAKER_20]: So I'm putting it on the floor for you to do.
[02:34:27] [SPEAKER_20]: You did. I forgot.
[02:34:29] [SPEAKER_20]: I don't want that shit at all.
[02:34:34] [SPEAKER_18]: I take that sample.
[02:34:36] [SPEAKER_18]: I walk over to the to the to like the airlock.
[02:34:41] [SPEAKER_18]: I wait till we're passing a star and I just get us in.
[02:34:49] [SPEAKER_11]: And then
[02:34:50] [SPEAKER_11]: whenever problems that when all you have to hammer guys,
[02:34:53] [SPEAKER_00]: everything looks like a star to be jettisoned into.
[02:34:58] [SPEAKER_11]: I got it. I got to commend you.
[02:35:00] [SPEAKER_11]: I like that. I did not forget about that.
[02:35:02] [SPEAKER_11]: You were about to put something on with that.
[02:35:04] [SPEAKER_00]: Oh, you said of a few.
[02:35:08] [SPEAKER_11]: Like, I mean, look, like, all right.
[02:35:10] [SPEAKER_11]: So here's the way this scenario is in a run.
[02:35:12] [SPEAKER_11]: Like what has happened is the the
[02:35:15] [SPEAKER_11]: primary ship with the professor
[02:35:18] [SPEAKER_11]: landed there, those creatures, the former human husks, things were
[02:35:25] [SPEAKER_11]: curious, it's a hive mind kind of thing.
[02:35:28] [SPEAKER_11]: So if you said anything around them, she would have known.
[02:35:32] [SPEAKER_11]: Though I feel like you suspected it.
[02:35:34] [SPEAKER_11]: That's why I kind of like our I did not.
[02:35:37] [SPEAKER_18]: Did you guys because I actually did not at all
[02:35:40] [SPEAKER_20]: the same thing that she hears no.
[02:35:44] [SPEAKER_20]: Yeah, I basically keep it quiet because I didn't want to say
[02:35:49] [SPEAKER_20]: or do anything that would jeopardize us being able to just walk off the station.
[02:35:58] [SPEAKER_18]: I actually just got a shutter there because I was like, oh, shit.
[02:36:03] [SPEAKER_18]: I didn't we did not.
[02:36:04] [SPEAKER_18]: Like, I'm so glad we decided to wait till we were on the ship to tell say anything.
[02:36:09] [SPEAKER_11]: I try at every like there were several turns.
[02:36:11] [SPEAKER_11]: Like obviously when I showed you the thing at first,
[02:36:14] [SPEAKER_11]: like I was tempting you to shoot it.
[02:36:17] [SPEAKER_11]: And then when I had the dead crew member that was like converted over.
[02:36:24] [SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, raises head up.
[02:36:25] [SPEAKER_11]: I was thinking what they're going to shoot it then and they didn't.
[02:36:29] [SPEAKER_11]: And then when I had him corner you like the entire time I have been poking you
[02:36:34] [SPEAKER_11]: with sticks just waiting for you to do that.
[02:36:36] [SPEAKER_11]: And that was one of my moves right there.
[02:36:38] [SPEAKER_11]: It's like the second you said that the gig was up.
[02:36:41] [SPEAKER_11]: They were going to turn on you.
[02:36:43] [SPEAKER_11]: And then it was just be you fighting them in the growth racing back to the ship.
[02:36:47] [SPEAKER_11]: Oh, my God.
[02:36:48] [SPEAKER_11]: The I took liberties.
[02:36:50] [SPEAKER_11]: The one that was dead that like the second you asked for a gun.
[02:36:53] [SPEAKER_11]: I said, well, the legionnaire that survived the other ship is dead and there's her gun.
[02:36:57] [SPEAKER_11]: And so I killed out an NPC immediately in my mind that you could have encountered
[02:37:03] [SPEAKER_11]: the flashing light in the helmet was a communication between the professor
[02:37:07] [SPEAKER_11]: who was still on the space station hit away in the med bay that I was going to have
[02:37:12] [SPEAKER_11]: you walk by and oh, we left somebody behind.
[02:37:15] [SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, you left somebody behind.
[02:37:17] [SPEAKER_11]: Whoops.
[02:37:18] [SPEAKER_11]: But I mean, like I didn't give you any indication.
[02:37:20] [SPEAKER_11]: But then again, like it's a scenario is written in glance over it in the
[02:37:24] [SPEAKER_11]: in the quick sort guided I sent you just to kind of get a basic feel of it.
[02:37:28] [SPEAKER_11]: It's a decent one.
[02:37:29] [SPEAKER_11]: It's kind of based on an older Coriolis because this is like the second
[02:37:32] [SPEAKER_11]: iteration of the game.
[02:37:35] [SPEAKER_11]: But basically the things that you could have done and like the flight.
[02:37:39] [SPEAKER_11]: Oh, let me get back saying this.
[02:37:39] [SPEAKER_11]: The flashing light was him contacting her.
[02:37:42] [SPEAKER_11]: Like so if you'd hit that, you would have known that he's live in the ship.
[02:37:46] [SPEAKER_11]: So even I like I tantalize with finding out that he was alive.
[02:37:52] [SPEAKER_11]: And like I mean, you didn't take it and that was a decision.
[02:37:55] [SPEAKER_11]: I think you all played very smart.
[02:37:56] [SPEAKER_11]: And I like I like how it all went.
[02:37:59] [SPEAKER_11]: But basically you go in there.
[02:38:02] [SPEAKER_11]: If you don't fire on him, Dr.
[02:38:04] [SPEAKER_11]: Wihanna is her name makes herself known to you and basically gives you the same
[02:38:08] [SPEAKER_11]: proposition of like, you know, take me take me back to the planet.
[02:38:13] [SPEAKER_11]: And then if you took her back to the planet, you just drop her off.
[02:38:16] [SPEAKER_11]: You get the money for your ship and then you hear about
[02:38:21] [SPEAKER_11]: flowers springing up in the desert.
[02:38:24] [SPEAKER_11]: And that's how it ends.
[02:38:25] [SPEAKER_11]: Or you could sit there and kill.
[02:38:27] [SPEAKER_11]: You could have went for if you explored a different area of the ship.
[02:38:30] [SPEAKER_11]: There's actually you could have actually cut the systems on like there was some
[02:38:36] [SPEAKER_11]: energy in there that you could basically just overloaded the engines and self
[02:38:39] [SPEAKER_11]: destructed the entire space station.
[02:38:44] [SPEAKER_11]: But like your path never led you in that direction.
[02:38:46] [SPEAKER_11]: Therefore, like I'd, you know, it it seems like it would be very obvious for
[02:38:52] [SPEAKER_11]: me to sit there and go, well, you know, you could probably go to engineering
[02:38:54] [SPEAKER_11]: or whatever section of that ship it is.
[02:38:57] [SPEAKER_11]: So that was it.
[02:38:59] [SPEAKER_11]: Now where I changed like the entire game was game is written until we started today.
[02:39:03] [SPEAKER_11]: And I just decided like, do to do the things that I wanted to do because I ran
[02:39:07] [SPEAKER_11]: this for RPX and
[02:39:10] [SPEAKER_11]: the road for the hologram was made up by me.
[02:39:15] [SPEAKER_11]: I wanted you to like basically like everybody state after that attack happened.
[02:39:21] [SPEAKER_11]: Everybody's those that were alive worked with like went to the
[02:39:25] [SPEAKER_11]: arbiterium and worked with the doctor.
[02:39:27] [SPEAKER_11]: And eventually as time went on, they started, they got desperate and, you know,
[02:39:31] [SPEAKER_11]: supplies were low and stuff like that.
[02:39:33] [SPEAKER_11]: And they started experimenting on themselves.
[02:39:35] [SPEAKER_11]: She was the only one that maintained sentience and actually became like a poison
[02:39:39] [SPEAKER_11]: ivy figure as everybody else was like hus and stuff like that.
[02:39:43] [SPEAKER_11]: So I made that up.
[02:39:45] [SPEAKER_11]: I made the dead soldier that you found in front of the door.
[02:39:50] [SPEAKER_11]: Like why could you not get into it?
[02:39:52] [SPEAKER_11]: Well, I was going to say the captain was gone and or destroyed or whatnot.
[02:39:57] [SPEAKER_11]: So you could have access to the ship or the commands or anything like that.
[02:40:01] [SPEAKER_11]: But I put it like I said, the dead legionaire there just basically try
[02:40:06] [SPEAKER_11]: to bait you again into acting.
[02:40:09] [SPEAKER_11]: I like how you all.
[02:40:13] [SPEAKER_11]: I like the plain along part.
[02:40:17] [SPEAKER_11]: I've really liked the idea of the slingshot.
[02:40:19] [SPEAKER_11]: I mean, that was nice.
[02:40:22] [SPEAKER_11]: The but I mean, I'm very pleased with this outcome here.
[02:40:27] [SPEAKER_11]: I like deviating from what we did here.
[02:40:30] [SPEAKER_11]: With me rattling that is there questions, comments, suggestions?
[02:40:35] [SPEAKER_11]: Is there anything that I didn't answer here or
[02:40:38] [SPEAKER_11]: anything that you'd like to address?
[02:40:40] [SPEAKER_11]: I know that I was a bit rusty on the rules.
[02:40:43] [SPEAKER_11]: The rules that I'm familiar with this combat.
[02:40:45] [SPEAKER_11]: That's what I was about to say.
[02:40:46] [SPEAKER_20]: Like it's a shame that I to like the options that we went through.
[02:40:51] [SPEAKER_20]: I think it was really interesting what happened,
[02:40:52] [SPEAKER_20]: but it is a shame that I didn't get to try with the combat like the ground combat.
[02:40:59] [SPEAKER_18]: But yeah, I was actually surprised that you were just like hang on.
[02:41:05] [SPEAKER_18]: It's like horrifying creature with like
[02:41:09] [SPEAKER_20]: vines coming out of its mouth.
[02:41:10] [SPEAKER_20]: I'm like, it really it felt too much like you wanted me to shoot it.
[02:41:15] [SPEAKER_20]: So I'm like, I'm going to try not to and see what happens.
[02:41:18] [SPEAKER_20]: If it attacks me, then I'll shoot it.
[02:41:21] [SPEAKER_20]: That's basically what I was trying to keep in my mind the whole time.
[02:41:24] [SPEAKER_20]: If this thing is just a monster, then I'll shoot it.
[02:41:27] [SPEAKER_20]: But if it can think, then
[02:41:30] [SPEAKER_20]: we don't necessarily have to shoot our way out of here.
[02:41:33] [SPEAKER_20]: Because I'm not a soldier.
[02:41:34] [SPEAKER_20]: I'm a scientist.
[02:41:36] [SPEAKER_20]: Yeah.
[02:41:37] [SPEAKER_20]: I would give
[02:41:39] [SPEAKER_20]: I'm a doctor.
[02:41:40] [SPEAKER_11]: Zeb was the most Zeb was not combat necessarily.
[02:41:44] [SPEAKER_11]: I'm more melee than anything else.
[02:41:46] [SPEAKER_18]: That's why I was giving my mouse up for like,
[02:41:49] [SPEAKER_18]: I will defend myself with my my power sledge, but I am not a combat character.
[02:41:55] [SPEAKER_11]: The vines were sent in if you made moves like when I spent the two points like I don't.
[02:42:01] [SPEAKER_11]: All right.
[02:42:01] [SPEAKER_11]: So I can basically spend it to make the rotation like time it to where like,
[02:42:06] [SPEAKER_11]: OK, whenever the red sun's shining on the plants, they gain a bonus
[02:42:10] [SPEAKER_11]: and stuff.
[02:42:11] [SPEAKER_11]: So that's why that kind of kept recurring there.
[02:42:15] [SPEAKER_11]: I did it once without spending points just
[02:42:17] [SPEAKER_11]: narratively to present it to you all.
[02:42:20] [SPEAKER_11]: But then like when the sun shines on it,
[02:42:23] [SPEAKER_11]: as they gain their power, it never mentions anything about the tree being dead,
[02:42:26] [SPEAKER_11]: by the way, and choked out like, could see.
[02:42:29] [SPEAKER_18]: It's a good descriptor for you added to it.
[02:42:32] [SPEAKER_11]: I feel bad that I didn't get to include Josh too much in this.
[02:42:34] [SPEAKER_11]: I do apologize, Josh.
[02:42:37] [SPEAKER_20]: Josh here.
[02:42:41] [SPEAKER_02]: Oh, OK.
[02:42:45] [SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, I do.
[02:42:46] [SPEAKER_11]: I do apologize.
[02:42:47] [SPEAKER_11]: I mean, you had your kind of I mean, you could have done some combat,
[02:42:50] [SPEAKER_11]: but you were kind of your character was stated for a particular job,
[02:42:54] [SPEAKER_11]: which you did.
[02:42:55] [SPEAKER_06]: I did a visual at the end.
[02:42:58] [SPEAKER_11]: My God, that was funny.
[02:43:00] [SPEAKER_11]: I mean, it's a it can be a brutal system.
[02:43:02] [SPEAKER_11]: So imagine playing aliens like you're fucking dead.
[02:43:05] [SPEAKER_11]: Like there you go.
[02:43:06] [SPEAKER_07]: The worst part is I didn't roll bad for those 18 dice.
[02:43:09] [SPEAKER_07]: I can show you for sure.
[02:43:10] [SPEAKER_07]: Great.
[02:43:12] [SPEAKER_07]: I had a lot of fives.
[02:43:14] [SPEAKER_07]: There's no success.
[02:43:17] [SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, one in six hands of a success.
[02:43:20] [SPEAKER_11]: So I mean, out of 18, I should have gotten it three times.
[02:43:24] [SPEAKER_11]: I mean, yeah.
[02:43:26] [SPEAKER_11]: And I mean, it just rode against it like it took me a while because I played
[02:43:29] [SPEAKER_11]: Telstra and Luke before I ever played this.
[02:43:31] [SPEAKER_11]: And I mean, there's been any time to like, oh, yeah, I'm going to roll
[02:43:34] [SPEAKER_11]: a bunch of dice and then there's nothing in it is very frustrating.
[02:43:38] [SPEAKER_11]: But like the bonuses you get those.
[02:43:40] [SPEAKER_11]: Like if you hit it twice, like if you were open in
[02:43:42] [SPEAKER_11]: fire, fat, carbine and hit twice, you could do double damage or you could do a
[02:43:46] [SPEAKER_11]: random rule on a one in 66.
[02:43:49] [SPEAKER_11]: And then I mean, you could just instantly kill somebody or cripple or whatnot.
[02:43:53] [SPEAKER_11]: I mean, there's there's like a lot of
[02:43:56] [SPEAKER_11]: a lot of things that you can kind of do.
[02:43:58] [SPEAKER_11]: So it's a give and take.
[02:43:59] [SPEAKER_11]: I feel like when we play Corleone, I feel like a Boston is
[02:44:06] [SPEAKER_11]: less crunchy in that obviously not space combat, but it's
[02:44:11] [SPEAKER_11]: it's a simpler, simplified version of this.
[02:44:14] [SPEAKER_20]: This game seems relatively simple as it is.
[02:44:17] [SPEAKER_20]: That's also for me coming from shadow run in massive.
[02:44:20] [SPEAKER_20]: I mean, we didn't fire a shot complicated as hell.
[02:44:25] [SPEAKER_20]: Yeah, yeah.
[02:44:26] [SPEAKER_18]: And Pathfinder and yeah.
[02:44:29] [SPEAKER_18]: So yeah, like this is definitely like on the lighter side of for like that kind
[02:44:33] [SPEAKER_18]: of for the mechanics, but it's not bad.
[02:44:35] [SPEAKER_18]: Like I am and I definitely enjoyed it.
[02:44:38] [SPEAKER_11]: I'm looking at the scarab right now.
[02:44:40] [SPEAKER_11]: I finally found a picture of it basically like when you all did that shot,
[02:44:44] [SPEAKER_11]: the guns are on the front.
[02:44:45] [SPEAKER_11]: So to make it much better, I gave him said that the thing hit the rear of the
[02:44:50] [SPEAKER_11]: ship and all that, but like, I guess like maybe when he did the maneuver,
[02:44:56] [SPEAKER_18]: he like he turned the ship around.
[02:45:00] [SPEAKER_11]: Maybe you broke it.
[02:45:01] [SPEAKER_11]: I think it worked like it would have worked like you broke it enough when
[02:45:04] [SPEAKER_11]: you you thrust the throttle up that like on the day on the downs.
[02:45:10] [SPEAKER_11]: We went over and didn't cut you had to shoot it.
[02:45:12] [SPEAKER_20]: So I mean, that's just that's just a narrative one.
[02:45:15] [SPEAKER_20]: But because there was still a connection,
[02:45:17] [SPEAKER_20]: it spun the ship and made the ship turn.
[02:45:20] [SPEAKER_20]: So because and with that, you just make it turn a little bit more.
[02:45:24] [SPEAKER_20]: So you have line of sight with the front guns.
[02:45:28] [SPEAKER_20]: Yeah.
[02:45:29] [SPEAKER_11]: But I mean, it would be that as may I just kind of thinking like,
[02:45:32] [SPEAKER_11]: we're two bomber like underside, like kind of thing like that.
[02:45:36] [SPEAKER_11]: But I mean, neither here nor there.
[02:45:37] [SPEAKER_11]: I didn't notice that, but I would still had you do the row.
[02:45:40] [SPEAKER_11]: It would just been narratively it would have went different.
[02:45:43] [SPEAKER_11]: I think the last thing I want to kind of throw out there to you all is.
[02:45:49] [SPEAKER_11]: I did I don't really do horror as much as I tend to.
[02:45:53] [SPEAKER_11]: Well, though I just ran just my second horror game.
[02:45:55] [SPEAKER_11]: I run for you.
[02:45:56] [SPEAKER_11]: I tend to do like more comfortable with like half.
[02:46:00] [SPEAKER_11]: I won't say high fantasy, but I prefer to make energetic fun games with like
[02:46:06] [SPEAKER_11]: time watching things like that.
[02:46:07] [SPEAKER_11]: And just as a game master, I always felt like I could work on delivering horror.
[02:46:14] [SPEAKER_11]: So was was there any suggestions?
[02:46:18] [SPEAKER_11]: What did you like?
[02:46:19] [SPEAKER_20]: It's the time that you ran a horror game for us.
[02:46:21] [SPEAKER_20]: I've been extremely concerned.
[02:46:22] [SPEAKER_20]: So so you've done a good job both times.
[02:46:27] [SPEAKER_18]: Yeah, like.
[02:46:31] [SPEAKER_18]: Yeah.
[02:46:31] [SPEAKER_18]: Adam, I think honestly, like you beat yourself up too much about that.
[02:46:35] [SPEAKER_18]: Like this was this was a nerving.
[02:46:37] [SPEAKER_18]: Like when you're describing the the body's like pointing even just pointing
[02:46:43] [SPEAKER_18]: down the corridor and meeting us somewhere is like, oh, fuck, I hate this.
[02:46:46] [SPEAKER_03]: In the best way possible.
[02:46:47] [SPEAKER_18]: Like in a good way.
[02:46:50] [SPEAKER_18]: Yeah. Yeah.
[02:46:52] [SPEAKER_11]: The running without gravity and all that.
[02:46:54] [SPEAKER_11]: I thought of it like a like that my logic behind that is
[02:47:02] [SPEAKER_11]: fine, snake up stuff all the time.
[02:47:04] [SPEAKER_11]: So why can't a person as a plant person just have like, you know,
[02:47:07] [SPEAKER_11]: that ability to clean two stuff?
[02:47:10] [SPEAKER_19]: Yeah.
[02:47:11] [SPEAKER_11]: Like, you know, like a vine was cleaned today outside the house.
[02:47:14] [SPEAKER_11]: So that was kind of my logic.
[02:47:15] [SPEAKER_11]: I also like mentioned they were running through the vines and stuff like
[02:47:19] [SPEAKER_11]: I had to for like added traction and like their connection with the overall
[02:47:23] [SPEAKER_11]: because Dr. Wana could control the vines as well.
[02:47:26] [SPEAKER_11]: I mean she was in control of everything.
[02:47:29] [SPEAKER_18]: Yeah.
[02:47:29] [SPEAKER_18]: It also just added to like another another air of like the supernatural or the
[02:47:33] [SPEAKER_18]: unnatural to them is that the fact that they are able to move as though there
[02:47:37] [SPEAKER_18]: is gravity, but there is no gravity like for us.
[02:47:40] [SPEAKER_18]: It kind of like resembled like for me, it was like the
[02:47:43] [SPEAKER_18]: in the Evil Dead, I think it's Evil Dead 2 or something like that when like
[02:47:47] [SPEAKER_18]: the character like one of the infected like dead light characters is like out
[02:47:50] [SPEAKER_18]: dancing prancing around in the woods outside of the cabin.
[02:47:54] [SPEAKER_18]: Like I kind of got that like a weird kind of impression of that.
[02:47:58] [SPEAKER_18]: I was just thinking, uncanny movement.
[02:48:02] [SPEAKER_18]: Yeah.
[02:48:03] [SPEAKER_18]: So again, it was creepy.
[02:48:04] [SPEAKER_20]: You the tone was already pretty creepy, but it was more along the lines of like,
[02:48:09] [SPEAKER_20]: oh, it's just a normal job.
[02:48:10] [SPEAKER_20]: There's a weird growth in here or whatever.
[02:48:12] [SPEAKER_20]: We'll just get the ship and leave.
[02:48:13] [SPEAKER_20]: And then that happened.
[02:48:15] [SPEAKER_20]: So then it's like, OK, there's something really weird going on.
[02:48:19] [SPEAKER_20]: We need to get out right now.
[02:48:20] [SPEAKER_20]: Where's that ship?
[02:48:21] [SPEAKER_20]: Let's go like it made a shift gears.
[02:48:29] [SPEAKER_11]: This is one of those scenarios.
[02:48:31] [SPEAKER_11]: It's like a one encounter kind of thing, in my opinion, like you're either going to
[02:48:36] [SPEAKER_11]: like chances are you're going to like run into something.
[02:48:39] [SPEAKER_11]: You kill those creatures early on because I gave you two.
[02:48:41] [SPEAKER_11]: I gave you an opportunity to kill the one in the living quarters area.
[02:48:45] [SPEAKER_11]: And you didn't take it.
[02:48:47] [SPEAKER_18]: And then Adam's in Kentucky.
[02:48:49] [SPEAKER_18]: Like, I killed me.
[02:48:50] [SPEAKER_18]: I'm here.
[02:48:51] [SPEAKER_18]: Yeah.
[02:48:51] [SPEAKER_18]: Do it.
[02:48:52] [SPEAKER_11]: Totally doing that multiple times.
[02:48:54] [SPEAKER_11]: But I feel like once it became a combat thing, like I.
[02:48:57] [SPEAKER_11]: I didn't foresee like the with the party size and all that.
[02:49:01] [SPEAKER_11]: You guys going lowest go further.
[02:49:03] [SPEAKER_11]: It'd be like, I think it'd be like a fuck this.
[02:49:05] [SPEAKER_11]: And then I'd have to spend the entire time trying to wrangle you back into some
[02:49:09] [SPEAKER_11]: sort of.
[02:49:11] [SPEAKER_11]: Narrative like it would either be like, you know, I would make the doctor's
[02:49:16] [SPEAKER_11]: presence be known like through a calm system or something like that that they
[02:49:19] [SPEAKER_11]: hacked into like, oh, I'm in the mid bay.
[02:49:21] [SPEAKER_11]: You gotta come get me.
[02:49:22] [SPEAKER_11]: Boba, please.
[02:49:23] [SPEAKER_11]: So at least give you an out while trying to survive or make your trip back to your
[02:49:29] [SPEAKER_11]: ship.
[02:49:29] [SPEAKER_20]: So it made your life a lot easier when I stupidly went, let's go to the
[02:49:33] [SPEAKER_20]: arbiterium and see what's going on.
[02:49:35] [SPEAKER_20]: I'm curious.
[02:49:38] [SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, you were basically forcing me.
[02:49:40] [SPEAKER_11]: It was like, I was going to have him start like crowding in around you.
[02:49:43] [SPEAKER_11]: It was going to fight.
[02:49:45] [SPEAKER_18]: It was going to get uncomfortable.
[02:49:46] [SPEAKER_11]: Yeah.
[02:49:46] [SPEAKER_11]: It was eventually I was going to have to act.
[02:49:48] [SPEAKER_11]: So yeah, thank you for being a player.
[02:49:50] [SPEAKER_11]: And like I said, Dave, I'm a man of like you on this respect that
[02:49:54] [SPEAKER_11]: like I'm like Chris, remember me in that red market game looking through
[02:49:58] [SPEAKER_11]: those binoculars despite the fact that I knew like I will.
[02:50:03] [SPEAKER_11]: It's like it's like Texas total.
[02:50:04] [SPEAKER_11]: Like I'll pay to at least see the see the first three cards.
[02:50:09] [SPEAKER_18]: And I hope I wasn't like dissuading that too much in this game.
[02:50:11] [SPEAKER_18]: I was just like, like, yeah, let's okay, let's avoid this.
[02:50:15] [SPEAKER_18]: Let's let's get to do the objective we were here for the reason
[02:50:18] [SPEAKER_20]: that we were thinking that because we were immersed in the
[02:50:21] [SPEAKER_20]: situation and what's going on.
[02:50:23] [SPEAKER_20]: If the horror wasn't working, then we'd just be like,
[02:50:26] [SPEAKER_20]: I'll let's just shoot everything, whatever.
[02:50:28] [SPEAKER_20]: But like we were all concerned.
[02:50:31] [SPEAKER_18]: So yeah, it's just another bug hunt.
[02:50:34] [SPEAKER_18]: Yeah.
[02:50:35] [SPEAKER_18]: Yeah, this is more alien than aliens.
[02:50:39] [SPEAKER_18]: Yeah, this is more of the horror space horror in space
[02:50:42] [SPEAKER_18]: than like Marines in space.
[02:50:47] [SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, I appreciate that, man.
[02:50:49] [SPEAKER_11]: You all you honor me and I enjoy having this opportunity.
[02:50:53] [SPEAKER_11]: So yeah, like, you know, next time I run this for you guys,
[02:50:58] [SPEAKER_11]: like I kind of mentioned other kind of plot lines and stuff
[02:51:01] [SPEAKER_11]: like that, I'm going to I would love to explore different
[02:51:03] [SPEAKER_11]: aspects of it.
[02:51:04] [SPEAKER_11]: I think that, you know, definitely what space combat
[02:51:08] [SPEAKER_11]: shown me is that it would be fun to explore the ship
[02:51:12] [SPEAKER_11]: side of things and have an entire scenario where
[02:51:15] [SPEAKER_11]: that's more of a focal point.
[02:51:17] [SPEAKER_11]: I mean, you're out in an uncharted or not.
[02:51:20] [SPEAKER_11]: It's very like everything's very spread out and there's a
[02:51:24] [SPEAKER_11]: lot of like, there was an old war and there's relics and
[02:51:28] [SPEAKER_11]: there's the threat of like whatever I mean, the other
[02:51:31] [SPEAKER_11]: factions that you had fought and like there's just so
[02:51:34] [SPEAKER_11]: many things here that it can be horror.
[02:51:36] [SPEAKER_11]: It could be, you know, science fantasy,
[02:51:39] [SPEAKER_11]: a science fantasy.
[02:51:40] [SPEAKER_11]: You're playing a firefly and you stop at a place
[02:51:44] [SPEAKER_11]: and then you, you know, keep the people from being
[02:51:47] [SPEAKER_11]: abused by the local Baron kind of kind of stuff
[02:51:50] [SPEAKER_11]: like that.
[02:51:51] [SPEAKER_11]: And like, I really feel like in this universe of this
[02:51:54] [SPEAKER_11]: game, there's a lot of potential.
[02:51:57] [SPEAKER_11]: So thank you again for giving me the opportunity to
[02:52:00] [SPEAKER_11]: run.
[02:52:00] [SPEAKER_11]: I appreciate that.
[02:52:01] [SPEAKER_11]: And I look forward to doing it again.
[02:52:04] [SPEAKER_20]: Sorry, it took us like a month to get through.
[02:52:07] [SPEAKER_18]: Yeah, thanks Adam.
[02:52:09] [SPEAKER_18]: To finally get to it.
[02:52:10] [SPEAKER_18]: Yeah, like Gen Con happened between the two games.
[02:52:14] [SPEAKER_11]: If y'all had done this, I was going to leave and go, if
[02:52:17] [SPEAKER_11]: y'all didn't say this, I was going to actually go
[02:52:19] [SPEAKER_11]: down the road.
[02:52:19] [SPEAKER_11]: I was like, well, I'll see you later and I'm going to go drink.
[02:52:21] [SPEAKER_11]: I was going to go drink beer at my neighbor.
[02:52:22] [SPEAKER_11]: So I've had a lot of fun and I'm not going to hang out
[02:52:24] [SPEAKER_11]: for the morning.
[02:52:25] [SPEAKER_11]: So thank you.
[02:52:28] Yeah.
[02:52:30] [SPEAKER_18]: All right.
[02:52:32] [SPEAKER_18]: Guess until next time then we'll see you next time.
[02:52:35] [SPEAKER_18]: Internet.
[02:52:35] [SPEAKER_18]: Bye.
