7.7/10
Definitely well-known in one major section. Low, but not nonexistent, activity outside this section.

« on: June 03, 2015, 12:04:31 am »extend staff, straight through the barista."Better..." As you start to force out a few words, the barista leans in to listen. You struggle to speak, but manage to say, "...better than being dead."
((we only just began the fight. I kinda hoped for at least a round where sh got close for us to flee. I mean come on, she was all the way across the room. I figure seeing the magic totally unaffect her would have been a hint. Besides, it ruined my chance to sarcastically reply to her question with "better than being dead. Now, where's my Blanket and Pillows?"))
The barista chuckles a bit. She's off guard. This is a perfect opportunity. You position your staff and rapidly extend it, knocking the barista back and skewering her.
Synthesize paperwork in which you assert that, since you have brewed coffee at some point, you are, in fact, a coffee maker. Justify the policy, and repair yourself.With the barista away, you focus on dealing with your wound. A combination of the right spells might work. You create paperwork declaring you a coffee maker due to having brewed coffee. A detailed report and legal argument justifying this declaration is next, but your hands feel slower and clumsier as you keep tapping away at the calculator. Midway through repairing the coffee maker, your calculator use becomes too clumsy. The last thing you see before you black out is the maintenance worker stepping away from the office coffee maker...
Failing that, die.This is not yet the time. You awaken quite soon, patched up and energized. The maintenance worker stands above you, a now-bloody toolbox in his hands.
You stand and take your staff once more, face the seemingly unfazed barista, and ask, "Now, where's my Blanket and Pillows?" Your opponent smirks and charges.
summon MOAR FORTS out of hardened paperwork all over the place, but apply the medical paperwork previously mentioned on ourselves first.Walls of triplicate-written forms rise in front of the barista, impeding her movement. Bricks of dense legalese surround you, shielding you from the bullets of the agents. Towers of needless authorization request forms stand tall amidst the chaos.

« on: June 02, 2015, 11:04:59 pm »THEY DID NOT FILL THE NECESSARY PAPERWORK TO ALLOW THIS ATTACK. MAKE THEM FILL SAID PAPERWORK WITH EXTREME PREJUDICE IF NECESSARY. AND BECAUSE THIS IS ON CAPS-LOCK IT IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN THE OTHER SUGGESTIONS.You order the agents to fill out the Attack Authorization Form A2B. The barista stops for a second to sign the single sheet needed to authorize the attack, and then gets back to attacking.
Also! Ask them if they have the proper forms. If they do not, make the forms/find the forms for them.They do.
Force High five the Barrista with each of her security people. With her sword. Combine timed explosion with light, and cast this inside the eyes of all the enemies available.You start mathemagicing away at the horde of agents and their leader. Many explode before they reach the barista. The couple dozen or so closest to her, though, are unaffected, as is the barista. You can't even dump paperwork on them. As you keep casting, her sword starts to glow, and the equations you complete seem to be floating around it.
And of course, create just tons of paperwork, all over them. Demand they fill it out appropriately.
More agents flood down the stairs.
GET IN DA MECH AND FIRE ALL DA MISSLESFinally, you enter the mech (really closer to powered armour) and fire the first barrage of bureaucratic death and destruction. Several agents fall to the arrows and, as usual, melt away. In the chaotic battle, the CoffeeCafe attackers and the brave public servants alike die by the dozen and staples and bullets fly about wildly. Luckily, your mech is bulletproof.
When you start firing at the barista, though, things start going downhill. With inhumanly fast reactions and movements, she slashes through every arrow in reach. She calmly walks towards you when you're busy generating new arrows, and chuckles. "So, the Society's already recruited you. Enjoying being their pawn?"
In an instant, she stabs straight through the mech and your chest, and pulls her sword back just as quickly. The mech starts to fall to pieces, sheets of paperwork flying away on the breeze, and blood gushes out of your wound. You start to have tunnel vision, sounds fade, and you feel faint. You probably will fall unconscious quite soon.
The maintenance worker you and the rest of the office called for a week ago finally arrives, walks through the chaos, and starts to inspect the coffee maker.

« on: June 02, 2015, 08:35:25 pm »Harden paperwork into components necessary to create a mech, then make the mech. A mini-mech.You quickly build a miniature mech with paper arrow missile racks. This paperwork is just obtuse and frustrating enough for the mech to not break down quickly. Great timing: every window on the floor shatters inwards, hordes of CoffeeCafe security agents leaping in. The front door is also smashed down, and the barista calmly walks in, sword at hand.
Meanwhile, the Deputy Minister is still digging her way out of the heap of paper, and your coworkers are preparing for a fight, grabbing anything they can use as weapons (hole punchers, paperweights, knives, chairs, etc.).

You're pretty sure you hear choppers overhead as you begin trying to seduce the Deputy Minister. "Hey, babe...want to come over to my fortress and have sex?" You're not the most seductive person, even with your coolness and the paperwork fortress you build around you and the Deputy Minister.
Your attempts to seduce her are also hampered by your decision to dump masses of paperwork over her for her to sign and your decision to then then shove some sort of criminal law reform idea at her. After a few seconds of watching her dig her way out of the paperwork, you charge through one fortress wall to change your password. As the whole fort collapses on the Deputy Minister, you rewrite your password. Now it's "boatpassword1murdereddrowssap," which you might remember. Then you print the CoffeeCafe office map (which probably isn't the sort of thing that you want the Access To Information requester to see).
There's a loud explosion at the top of the building, and alarms start blaring.
