((Actually, I'm trying to hide that I just accidentally gave a child hallucinogens, so it's better if she stays out of the room for the time being. None of you have seen that. Maybe the question about how long the effects last did gave me away. But I'm going to defend my fake innocence unless you can prove that I'm guilty.))

Oh crap he's on to me. Damn, damn, damn, now he's going to report me and- Oh wait, they can't do anything worse to me than this. Okay, okay, don't panic, be cool. Think, Flint, think. Use your actor powers to distract him and confuse him.
@Miyamoto:"What? I didn't drink any. I was just thinking about taking a small sip to take care of all this stress of trying to get this child to stand still and talk to me. I'm an actor dammit I'm not a psychologist. And the only role that I played in that had children in it was a guard in 'Sharley and the weapons factory'. And in that movie, the moral was: 'misbehave and you'll either end up getting shot in the back by a guard, testing prototype weapons on your own body, working in a sweatshop or get eaten by a giant robo-bear'." Giant cyborg bears always worked as a distraction. Probably because they were giant.

((Someone, order Feyri to do something useful for Team C! Please?))

Feyri: Gurad Flint's suit and weapons, so that Miyamoto and the rest of the team can go investigate the screaming.

((Any objections to this people who know Tiruin better, team and team leader? It's a safe-ish action, since the building is probably clear, it is a useful action, since powerful weapons and armor should never be left unattended in the presence of small children or homicidal adults and she can support Flint if the building isn't clear.

Anybody knows if Feyri has Medic experience? Maybe she can help with the child. (Only as a last resort though. I wouldn't want one of my bad rolls to turn her into a child-killer without Tiruin's knowledge... Plus I bet Feyri would have to say a lot about the situation if she found out what Flint has done.) ))

I know this is probably futile considering what we're facing but restrain our anger and use our wit, cunning, wisdom and abrasive personality to out-wit, out-annoy, out-mock and out-nonsense that out-sourced "human". I wonder if a display like that would prove that we're smarter than him or just plain crazier.
I see what you did there. ; ) Looking forward to it.
Or we can just take the high-road, treat him with disdain and just ignore this. But who wants to take the highroad? It's so high. I get tired just thinking about climbing it. The middle road is better. Because the low road is so steep.

EDIT: I just realised two things a)We got Indian HAL instead of Indiana Jones and b) a "medicinal" plant from India, grown in the probably remote engine area. Are you thinking what I'm thinking?

Open, throw a bio bomb, close.

Tell the zombies to stand near the walls of the hallway. Don't want to loose more.

It's an electric controlled door, so it pretty much is either shut or open, no partial opening.

You can always smash the controls or something and then use brute force to operate it.

Why not Darth Vader then? If we start misbehaving and we get caught he can say: "You are part of the rebel alliance and a traitor. Take him away."

Sure. As prepared as one can be for the wondrous, awe inspiring and frightening experience of going to space for the first time, on a place like nothing we've ever seen before.

Well, we are going to an important human celebration on an important human place, so I think it would be appropriate if we brought some kind of gift. We could bring them a traditional goblin gift, we could bring them something that is prized by goblins, we could use some human technology and mix it with goblin ingenuity and tradition to make the perfect gift, we could bring them something traditionally used by goblins to celebrate the end of a war, we could bring them something that may interest the humans, some valuable ore etc. And we are a shaman/storyteller. Our gift can be a great story, maybe one about how good peace is. And although I am against concealed weapons, what better place to hide a weapon then a trojan gift? Unless goblins don't give each other gifts.

Oh, and since we'll probably be meeting with dignitaries, do we know some etiquette/good manners? We don't want to look like savages.

((I just realized we are the collaborators. We are working with the Invaders and enjoying the benefits, while we overlook that we are not treated as equals, and that they are taking over, because we think it's for the best, that they are our friends and that resistance is futile. If this were a movie, we'd fight with the hero for a while and then we'd probably sacrifice/redeem ourselves so the hero can capture/destroy the human ship and save all goblins or something. Good thing it's not a movie. At least, if this were a movie, we'd know the hero can't be our nemesis, Raun-Khet, because he fought dishonourably. Unless he realizes his mistakes and becomes a better person or something. But that doesn't mean he can't be a recurring villain. Hmm...))

Have we heard anything from the other tribes? How is our breakaway "tribe" doing with the whole "being friends with the aliens" thing?

((Ugh, hate my net. Will post soon, sorry @ Paris for requesting a summary when I didn't post after that..))

((No need to apologize. My post did not imply that you needed to post after that. I just wanted to help a fellow forum member. It didn't even take me much time to write. Anyway:

Life is too short for worries

and

It's a game. Have fun.

And about the Internet problems, you can always threaten your ISP that you are going to leave it for another unless they fix the problem. They'll usually either fix the problem and/or offer you a discount. Unless you're connecting through a public network, or things are different in your country.))
