"Well by accidentally exploded I mean there was this giant infestation of very rude yellow octopuses people so we were all trying to kill them and I accidentally fired a bathtub or three into these glowy red crystals all over the place and that made the whole tower we were in explode and I think set off a chain reaction to asplode the whole city.

I'm from ..."


Alan pauses as his quantumly uncertain backstory collapses a small part of its waveform.

"I am from the far-off land of Calgary, Alberta, in the great intergalactic empire of Canada!"

Be bombastic, begin developing backstory for Alan's universe.

@Lenglon I think you're being a little too harsh here. But... the list is strange, indeed.


Well, it's not our place to judge another person's RPing/storytelling skills, is it? Especially if the character in question explicitly has the debilitating -1 Mind. I guess 'strange, incomprehensible, irrational behavior' (to outside observers, on occasions) is very much IC here.
As much as I generally detest it (I love overcomplicating things), I think it's high time to break out Hanlon's razor from the Armory (no offense implied). Sometimes a banana self-contradictory behaviour is just a banana self-contradictory behaviour.
My character is about to be stabbed with a dirty syringe through fur (meaning it's probably going to miss the first seven times) and there's no IC justification for me to give her any form of a resist action. I have a vested interest in the matter, and admit that I am heavily biased. and if Abigail is a veterinarian now that knows how to find veins through fur then I feel my objections are fully justified.
One note, she got those syringes from the armory IIRC so they should be clean.
See? Clean syringe! Makes everything better.

I can sympathize, I did that stuff all the time back when. Remember the 'I can't read' braintext fiasco, Lenglon?

Just remember; as in real life, making a copy of a copy is never as high quality as the original.
I dunno, Xan's currently a third copy and he's never been better.

((All you have to do is push the button.  Seriously.))

Never underestimate the lengths we go to to make trivial tasks difficult and deadly.
For instance the one going on right now, open an elevator door.

One person already permadead and one incapacitated, with more on the way.

Oh right, I've seen a bit of footage from that I think.

Yeah, uh, looking at the possible future Fniff's in/was in, uh yeah. Kinda dropped the ball on that one, guys.

Like shit, the stuff I do to people is sketchy sure, but I mostly just eat them if I'm not feeling grumpy. Those guys, though...brr.

Went to karate for the first time in about three weeks and goddamn I forget how good I feel after a few classes there. I mean shit, I'm still sick but I feel perfectly healthy!

Probably something to do with how I sweated at least a litre of fluids out over the span of an hour.

That might or might not be exaggeration, I'm not sure.

((Tarmac's last words were totally fitting for this quest. They should be, like, immortalized on the front page or the wiki or something.

Actually that's a pretty good idea - how about we have either the last words of dead individuals or a quote from them that perfectly encapsulates their character written by their death entry?))

"JON! HYNAKLES! BIRD! I have molotovs that I can't use without my arm. Take them and use them when the Salthe get in close!"

Get as deep in cover as I can and focus my rage once more into the molotovs. Flaming Booze Bombs of Vengeance and Hatred! Maybe invoke Tarmac's wrath into them too, the last hurrah of an addicted yellow pill man.

Nervous breakdown commences.

Because 1,5 is a ridiculously low friendly fire casualties score.

Nah, Kai's mental state's been slowly deteriorating since M18. This is completely in character, as the stress finally catches up to him. I was considering leaving it till after M24, but this is a perfectly good time.

And what you do when you roll 6? Mental state restored to perfect balance. If you want to have mental breakdown, don't leave it to RNG, roleplay it.
We should call this the Renen lesson, from where he perved so hard he became an asexual robot.

Vanessa places one enormous hand on Leo's shoulder.

"He's in a robotic body you imbecile, that's not his brain in there.

Actually, what am I thinking, I can store brains,"
she continues to herself, crouching over Jobasio's prone form.

"You'll be staying with me for a bit. You did invite this on yourself."

Action edited.

Well then.
Hey, at least I get to be the disapproving doctor now!

Vanessa sags slightly.

"By the incarnation of all that is stupidity I thought I'd left this stuff behind You. Person who shot and killed that person who could've been crucial to us surviving here, you get no medical treatment from now on until I deem otherwise. You've directly negatively impacted my chances of survival, so keep that in mind the next time you even think of treating your wounds, or I will rip your limbs off and leave the stumps to get infected with gangrene. Robotic teammate who's name escapes me, I will not treat you either."

Go loot permadead guy for body parts. Also collect Job's brain and store it in my brain holding compartment.

No, I luckily had my tokens in my locker at the time.

But yeah he probably has the potion.
