From here...


Feyri shifted the nine tokens in her palm as she mused by the side of the armory.

Nine. Only nine. Enough for an MKII. Should insulate it if I'm getting a metallic shield. Don't know how heavy it can be though...presumably I could ask for stabilizers into making it a personal shield along with a gun support...Hmm.

"Excuse me, AM?..."

Purchase an MKII.

Trade in the old shield for a metallic one; inquire if it could be made as a personal, mobile shield. Along with slight modifications for endurance and deftness - easier to handle when traversing rough terrain, or something I can carry on my back while having my arms free for other uses.

((for anyone that wants it here is a tinker concept I was thinking of Interesting ammunition idea - Use plutonium warheads in a rocket rifle due to extremely low super critical mass  :P))

((The critical mass of plutonium is 11kg (plus, it has to be spherical and 4" in diameter. Getting it any lower requires appropriate triggers, neutron reflectors, implosion geometry and tampers.). The Rocket Rifle ain't gonna cut it. Also, what you'd want is supercritical mass, but that's not really the issue.))

"Thank you."
Thomas took the cigarettes and headed off to the VR. While he walked, it occured to him that he actually had more drugs on him than his old dealer. He shrugged it off, then stepped into the VR. He places himself upon the top of a hill, in cover. At the base of the hill, there's a fort populated with people equipped with light armor and laser pistols.

Go to VR room. Give Thomas pizza before logging onto a spare machine.

Open crafting.

Browse for a large, acid resistant container and a similarly acid resistant hose. Browse the three strongest types of acid that the container and hose could be withstand.

The pizza tastes like bad decisions. Fitting, really.

What size of automated manipulator you want here? The ones they use on ships to generate gravity and stuff, or ones you could conceivably use and afford.


((Sorry about the confusion.))
Charles asks one of the people nearby why there are two seemingly comatose people lying on the floor.
"They're learning a lesson." The armory master says, sitting back down now that the rush has passed.


Ahaha... ahahaha... Ahahahah! Maurice started laughing hysterically.
Lyra, he could not have said that. Neither could my inner self, or anything.
Yes, I did fail to help Charro Hootzal. Yes, at that moment he looked more like a hamburger than a person. Yes, at that time, we might have had the chance of bringing his head back in a barely revivable state if we hurried as if Death chased us, and I suggested that race against time. And yes, what happened to him is one of my greatest faults, my greatest nightmare. But his head with the rest of his body were flattened just moments later, crushed into pasta - and that was a clear casualty, which is, unfortunately, to be expected in our line of work.
 And finally-
Maurice stopped laughing and looked Lyra in the eye:
I failed him - couldn't save him - because he was already more injured than I could have helped. That is my worst nightmare, indeed - the fact that I cannot bring the already dead, those claimed by Death himself, back to life, despite them yet clinging to life, despite Mistress Medicine guiding my hand in that never-ending battle with Death - Maurice turned to face blackness before him, his voice gradually raising - that sometimes Death wins, this is my worst nightmare, and not just plain being beaten by the circumstances. Do you hear me, puppeteer? You have made a mistake! This is but your interpretation of my memories!
Fuck off from my head! I disbelieve you and all of this circus!

Defy. Disbelieve. Resist. Wake up. Whatever it takes.

((@Lyra I have a slight inclination to believe that the second door (with the hamburger man/'Charro') was created by Maurice, as only he had the necessary memories, but I might be wrong. ))

The world shimmers and flickers but doesn't collapse. A phantom image of yourself appears before you.

"You're getting close. Think . An inherent flaw in what you've been doing. The flaw of faces in the clouds. Of opening doors. Think."



attempt to summon the "core" essence of my fears. hug the "Fear_Lyra" that this spawns. whisper in her ear:
"it'll be ok"
allow "Fear_Lyra to cry on my shoulder.
remember that i cannot be harmed in this place, i do not actually care what form Fear_Lyra takes, i know what Fear_Lyra wants.


((you try your ultimate denial if you want, i've got my own gambit to try. besides, Lyra wants this anyway.))

((btw, that "why here?" specifically: "why did the AM send us here? why would sending us here help us?" THAT is the question i mentioned I'd mentioned before but you misunderstood. specifically:))
"why?"
tap maurice's hand with my right hand's index finger five times while saying:
"here, neutral. Armory, watching, makes doors. showing? maze? teaching?"

You've been watching too much anime my friend~


((Oh No, You called me Brucie, people only do that when I'm fucked...))
This is incredibly intense!

"...ould thank Miss Faith for this idea."

You wake up, bound with your arms behind you and the doctor standing in front of you.

"Ah good, you're awake." He says casually twirling a knife between his fingers. "Hold this for a moment." He jams the knife into your chest. You choke and gasp as it punctures a lung and you gurgle your own blood.

"I have made you immortal. To age, to sickness and to...most damage." he says, walking across the room and picking up a tray of knives. "You're still quite vulnerable to burning. And vacuum exposure. Try not to get spaced, that will actually kill you permanently. Or shot in the head. You'll live but you'll lose all those precious memories and be what amounts to dead."

He stabs you in the stomach.

"You may have noticed that I didn't remove your capacity to feel pain."

He pulls the knife out of your chest and you can see, amongst the blood, that the knife has been corroded.

"Ah, good. Body regenerates so well it will destroy any foreign material. That means no robot parts or enhancements. To be blunt, you're stuck as you are right now. You will go no stronger as far as your body is concerned.You are forever trapped in this moment. "

He puts a few more knives into you.

"It's a small price to pay for immortality, I think."

A few more knives.

"Oh, and one other thing. Sometimes I may need a training partner for my various disciples. Or just a punching bag. So thanks for volunteering for that position."

He plucks the knives out one at a time and shakes his head.

"Well, I have things to deal with." He says, slipping a knife into one of your bound hands. "Just cut your way free. Oh and remember to keep eating. All that blood needs to be replaced."

He walks out of the room, humming to himself.

Examine available materials for an artificial skeleton, and check how such a procedure affects marrow and blood and such, and if there's any other physiological issues with it, like crushing your ass muscles every time you're knocked on your rear. Test some of the more common or obvious material choices against gauss and laser fire to see what difference they make vs normal bones in a subject.

See what they've got in terms of lithe, agile synthflesh humanoid-things, especially those built for avoidance, skirmishing, or melee combat.

Skeleton materials, marrow, delicate ass muscles, shooting people, agile synthflesh things.
The Procedure basically just replaces the bone. So if you just replace one bone, you're fine, but if you go for the whole skeleton you're gonna need what amount to synthetic marrow systems to do everything your bones would normally do. As per damage to the muscles and stuff, it's not significantly higher then normal or anything.

Now when it comes to an agile body, there's a synth flesh variant that is usually sold to acrobats, master mechanics and people who have to get into tight places. It uses ball joints for practically everything and is quite thin, extremely flexible and quick. You could wrap yourself around a flag pole.

Jim eats the pizza since he presumably has a mouth now and wipes the pizza sauce off his face. Then he pokes Maurice with a clean hand; that is, one not covered in pizza sauce. If Maurice doesn't wake up... Jim will go ahead and wipe the sauce off onto the man's suit.

(:P)

You shove your slice of pizza into your mouth and wipe the sauce off on maurice's suit.

"He gonna wake up soon? I kinda need him."

"Yeah, give him a minute."

You look around. No one is looking. You sneak over to one of the Nurses stations and start raiding the drawers. You put a few handfuls of sealed syringes, pills and anything else you find in your pockets and then slink out.

"Nothing to see here, folks."

Wake up again. Try to assess whether I hurt myself. If so, go to the infirmary.
