So the newspapers have as much actual information in them as can be expected here as well. Silly reporters.

Locate my guard-agent. Examine agent from distance.

((What, do you think I'm going to write a whole newspaper article?
1. That's a lot of work, and I don't have much free time.
2. I'm unfamiliar with Japanese journalism.
3. People would complain about how long the turn was taking.

Screw subtlety and start running. If he's been after me for this long there's a fair chance that he's more than a simple thief looking for an easy target.

"Oh, no, my target--one of the few young women to walk through this part of town alone--is capable of walking away! I guess I should find someone else."
[3v6] Unfortunately, his legs are longer. [5v3] He grabs you.
Seriously, dice, what the hell?

"So, uh, when should we pick her up?"

"As soon as possible?"

"u-um... I-I'll... T-take anything... I d-don't want to be a bother..."

"How do scrambled eggs sound?" He starts getting out eggs and stuff.

Miyuki continued to focus on sounds around her doing her best to ignore the overload

[6] You overhear...what are those people in that old couple's apartment doing? It takes several minutes, but you realize that it's a man and a woman, in bed, who are...ew.
You desire brain bleach.

((Um, it's actively not attacking us and instead is trying to communicate. I'm not worried about it attacking me as long as we don't scare it, and there's pretty much no chance of that if I'm the one looking instead of, say, Xan. The reason I'm outside is because I'm worried somebody is going to attack, what with the dozens of people readying various forms of fire.))

((As for the acid thing, I've got great nightvision, light sources, and climb well. It's not going to be a problem as long as the thing is cooperative. Just don't piss it off if I go back inside, ok?))

((Good luck. I promise not to anger it, and that if you die I'll give a speech at your memorial service.))

Plus, what good would that do? The bullet's still in there!

So?

If left it it's likely to shift and cause additional damage. It's less so if, say, it were in your head or arm, but since it's in the foot the pressure and constant movement will likely cause quite a bit of damage.

On the other hand, digging around for a bullet is guaranteed to cause a lot of damage, doing do might unblock a blood vessel the bullet was against, and you'll almost certainly get an infection. It's safer to leave it in until you can find some kind of medical professional, or ideally a whole hospital.

((Grate could go anywhere he's needed, because right now he's not much good at anything so he'll have to make/buy stuff to be useful. And...tenatively entering the boarding party.))

((You'd be great for clearing mines and other traps.))

((Gee, thanks. I'll be sure to let Jim know you suggested that.))

((Oh, and people, if you want to dissect my plans thread by thread to show how stupid they are and how incompetent I really am and that I couldn't defend a picknick basket from a cheeky bear, do tell. Pointing out flaws will do us more good than mindlessly agreeing after all.))

((Well, for starters, we don't have any pickanick baskets.
Anyways, if I had to choose a flaw, I'd say it's too vague. I never said it was a flaw you could do anything about, did I?))

((Totally willing to help look for the core if you forward the doc's reply to me btw. and I'm pretty sure I don't qualify as a threat to it so it won't oppose me.))

((Except you're an unsuited pint-sized half-feline, which translates to "snack" for the digestive system directly below you.))

((Stupid stomach, not having any kind of nervous system or sense.))

((And the veins are probably sustaining the brain. Well, technically the arteries would be doing that, but details details.))

That would be...what looks like a floating, drifting, flickering point of reddish-yellow light that, according to your suit's monitors, is very hot.

"Ooh, pretty."
Locate a rock. Throw it at the anomaly.

Miyuki slowly rose from her bed glad that her headache had finally gone, she would have to be more careful testing out her powers in the future  she didn't want to seriously injure herself messing around with them. She wandered back out into the main room and sat down wondering what she should do with her day, it probably wasn't best for her to go outside with her broken arm and her hearing. Then it came to her however, she should learn how to actually control her hearing. She would need to do that if she wanted to comfortably go outside again.

Miyuki unplugged her earplugs and tried to focus on a single sound doing her best to shut out all others

[3] You listen to a single car driving down the street, following it with your ears.

Wait for a time skip to where I'm not going to be in the hospital. Or you know, get transferred to someplace that the government will let me interact with other individuals with this curse.

Sure.

You didn't vow to wipe out all magic-users, but sure.

Yukari looks to Fuuka, who shrugs.
"Um...uh...sure! I'll take care of her."

"Thank you!"

Economic issues, political issues, magic, weird cult possible using magic, girl-on-fire, summoning person, ooh comics!

That cult! The weird one possible using magic! Whatever that means! Silly Engrish newspapers.

Oh. That one.
Apparently, there's this cult of people using magic to make themselves stronger, faster, tougher, or whatever. It's supposedly connected to some kinds of crime, but no definitive proof has come up. They're pretty secretive.

((*commits hari-kiri*))
"I said, 'are you up yet?'"

"'Mup, I'm up!"

"I... U-um... I don't think so... um... C-can I have some food?"

"Sure! What would you like?"

I asked piecewise if i could build a robot, he said yes. That equates to "Steve will let me" which is permission.

((Not true. piecewise speaks with many voices, and "can" usually refers to physical ability. Especially since you didn't ask something like, "Would Steve be fine with me building a robot from the spaceships we're supposed to be salvaging?"))

((I think we can do a lot more with 6 1 ships than with 1 6 kludgebots. Sorry dude.

((FTFY.
Spacecraft are well-designed, tested, and useful machines for any interplanetary organization. Kludgebots are handmade, amateur-designed, easily-mockable machines of being easily targeted by any weapon imaginable to man.))

((Or, really, anyone's permission? You just made a list and started assembling parts. None of the characters, Steve included, have the slightest idea what you're planning.))

((I'm not even sure if Grate knew what Auron was doing when he was helping.
He'd agree, but only because 11-year-olds' judgement is questionable.))

The Star Wars prequels were pretty good.

Oh, so people did actually read that.

Anyways.

Summon twin plungerswords and head into battle!

((How are plungerswords common household objects?))
