Get infrared goggles, a where's waldo book (to purge Gladii's visual memory), a paint scraper, and some plaster to cover up the paint if we can't get it all off.

I think we're overthinking this a bit. This problem can be handled with several gallon buckets of black paint, a paint roller with a long handle (plus paint tray), and a pair of those horizontal glasses that show you a 90 degree view.

As long as you don't look up you're safe. So keeping your view of the floor, paint over the entire wall. Starting with the bottom half and work your way up.

You will also need about a dozen digital cameras for testing.

How long ago was the camera installed? Halo guy might come back to check on his work.

I think we could probably use the broken mirror to get a look at the basilisk, safely. As an extra precaution we could view the mirror through the live feed on a camera.
But I don't expect there to be anything special in the next room, let alone evidence painted on the walls. We're already down an agent, we should do the coverup and get out.

Our orders are to eliminate the anomaly, by means. Is the anomaly the paint job in the next room, halo guy, or the deadly nature of the image?

Gladii isn't a musician and he is. Was. So it probably was him. Possibly along with whatever... stresses you pulled out of Gladii? Nevertheless it is well known that the dead would like to stay dead, and you should only disturb them if you have a very good reason to do so.

I'd suggest you appreciate the silence, but well, Gladii's breathing... maybe you should destroy that painting right now, so the mission is complete and the Agency can uh... make Gladii stop being. Injured.

>In a way, he is to you what you must be to him, more an Idea, than a person.
What an interesting musing, especially to us "spirits". I'm sure Clive's wrong about what Franklin thinks of him, though.

...The world coming to an abrupt end and/or being closed off like that reminds me of a few different stories, although I can't recall at all the movie that comes to mind.
Still, using those as a reference, they would imply that Cattenom is either in Space, or is in its entirety, a Simulation of some sort. The latter doesn't really make sense to me, given that it would imply that the adults are not in fact, in control- many things would have already been observed, stopped, altered, or otherwise if that were the case. The former, on the other hand... well, in any case, I'd have loved to hear Jhonen's thoughts on it all.

That aside, what the hell's the point of money, taxes, loans, and all that nonsense in whatever this situation is? I feel like that's a thought that'll hit 'Bec, too. On surface level, it seems like just a way to fake the normalcy of "before". Or maybe it's just as simple as repeating that one mantra or whatever you'd like to call it; "Nothing Changes in Cattenom".

--

...I've brought it up before, but Enid really is a foil to Rodney here- especially when considering Clive's thought;
>You can be the demon, if it means Rodney gets to be the angel.
Enid was Shielded for as long as possible given the circumstances of Cattenom, and ultimately, it didn't end well for Frederick. Why would it for Clive?

Continuing the Lie, ultimately, would not only render Rodney's actions meaningless, but also likely end Very Badly for Clive. The definition of Losing Him, as it were.

2 and B

I trust that Clive will open up about what happened when he is good and ready, not when we tell him when. Besides, he already made the decision to tell Roger himself without our orders before they got interrupted back in the powerplant. Maybe when he feels more comfortable enough around the other kids like he did with Roger, he will feel more ready to talk about what really happened.

If we do decide to tell them now, I recommend Clive frame the story as Rodney being a hero saving your life from getting graduated so he doesn't be seen as a murderer. Bad things will probably still happen after telling the truth, but at least they'll have context.

And I really really really want to go to the high school, so no other kid has to die, get a golden ending when we can save everyone we can. But sadly, for a horror story like this, we need to be realistic about our limitations and the high risks, even if it means another death may happen for not going into the high school right away. with how much more secure the school might become for awhile, we could be risking more deaths within our team at the moment than if we go later.

3) Tell the truth. Letting them falsely rely on your being hardened to death is bound to cause disaster.
A (rescue) or C (third way investigation). Not sure what the recycling center can teach us about the void around town. As for the building's purpose, odds are it's to recycle people into new babies. Investigating the police could give us answers to questions about people.

>>1119079
Not just people. I was thinking more Old police reports from back when the town was thrust into this void and any other thing that happened since like the sterilization or the beginning of what is happening at highschool.

>”Clive making Enid into a second him ain’t funny.”

Hey wow look who’s the expert on what’s funny now. Oh wait still not Lemmy. BOOOO

>Yet as Franklin’s identity is revealed, Roger is the first person to reach out and comfort him, his loyalty to his friend far stronger than whatever horrors he’d seen.

Hell yeah Roger still best boi

>“Everything stops at the edge of town. There was nothing past it.”

Oh no he stared into the abyss guess that’s why he’s an artist, it all makes sense

>Oh hey, you’re openly swearing in your mind. ‘Bec would be so proud.

Fuck yeah boi

As for your decisions… 2 is best for everyone. Let Clive keep being the big brother. If it’s necessary to hurt adults in the future and Clive needs to draw strength, maybe there’s solace in knowing he’s kept Rodney’s secret. If it’s important for people to know the truth, Albert or Roger will sense that something is off, and maybe then we reveal it.

For location, I vote A. It’s rescue time. There’s too much bad shit happening, too many corpses, and too high a likelihood of losing someone else. And if Clive DOES end up telling the truth because of spiritual influence, I don’t really like the idea of him having a point of insanity AND potentially losing Rodney if we go somewhere else. The guilt of not going ASAP could wreck Clive.

Lone portal headed toward the narrower end of the ship seems as likely as any to lead to the bridge - or even if it doesn't, sweeping that area first means not needing to worry that something hostile is lurking there to emerge and outflank you while exploring the rest.

Door opens easily, revealing a cylindrical passage resembling the pneumatic mail tubes which connect upper-floor offices back in the City of Needles, but scaled up wide enough to accommodate chainpods. Exactly wide enough - there are even ferromagnetic rails in the walls, and traction strips matching the rim-tread contours, around each access hatch in the walls.

Said hatches lead out from the central tube into a swirling bird's-nest of baffling machinery. Power conditioning and field-shaping, maybe, spread out for maintenance access - sheer size implies that the weapon you're looking to shut down is capable of a lot more than it's currently doing. Somebody might hide by burrowing into all that, but they'd fry when whatever it's supporting energizes properly.

Tube curves just enough that you can't see down the whole length at once, but sure enough that wide spot visible from the outside (near where the narrow end of the ship rests against the dock structure) corresponds to a proper control room. Clearly not designed for human p

Results are quieter than one might expect, though far from silent. First, an aura like the southern lights - or Elanyah, once she re-learned how to dance - condenses around the ship's narrow portion. (The neck, if you're thinking of it as a bird with forward-swept wings, or the tail if it's easier to conceptualize as a manta ray.) Coruscating ripples shimmer in and out of phase, visible analogue to an orchestra tuning up, then the final synchronized pattern is exponentially amplified, coalescing from the 'shoulders' down toward a single point just beyond the pointy end... which loses all cohesion as it intersects the dock, and explodes.

Screams of failing girders are felt in the feet and gut more than the ears, like an oddly high-pitched earthquake. Hundred thousand tons of spaceship descends two dozen meters, tilting about thirty degrees, as half the floor crumples out from under it. Overpressure equalizes along the now-shorter passage tube as a brief, gentle breeze.

Reiko stares at the crush landing.

"...That just happened."

She slaps her forehead, double checks to ensure the mimics fled the scene, then rushes to the ship (with the mechanic and any other loose luggage around) dangerous as it may be to move towards the wreck, she'd rather be inside the ship once it crashes even further, rather than just outside the potential hull breach when it gets kinetic.

Once inside, Reiko does a quick search of the area, trying to find out what went wrong as soon as possible so the party can stop any further movement that could widen the breach.

"Is everyone all right?"

Not exactly the result expected, but Cricket certainly succeeded in making entrance easier. Natalina will advocate for getting onboard quickly, before it has a chance to move again, potentially separating them from Cricket. Once we're sure the situation is stable, we can worry about loading it with the larger cache of supplies back by the elevator.

Now that the door is so much more accessible, the first order of business is to attempt to close it behind us. Let's try and ensure no mimics migrate into what we can hope is a mimic-free space? Not in any particular rush, so applying Understanding. Training in Perception might be relevant to finding the control, or in the datasphere to operating... though the inability in using numenera may as well.

Before Slime could fall into despair it sensed something. Deep inside its friends were little pieces of itself, keeping them alive but dormant. Faintly Slime could feel them calling out for help.

Wiping its tears and sniffling a little, Slime gathered its friends into its slimy bosom. "Don't you worry! Slime will fix you right up!" While Wolf and the ants were gooped down into slime, Slime thought. "Maybe I should try to make them better somehow?"

I thought they were already made of slime?

Time to regurgitate everything I guess.

welll shit.. if throwing up doesn't help, i guess we gotta fill them with more slime

So you are a dedicated healer of the group. Maybe they are should continue to eat poison fruit until they get immunity from the poison.

Possible answers to the question that was asked:

A) I am here to fix my relationship with the birds.

B) I want to form a friendship with another powerful ally.

C) Both of the previous suggestions

D) Other suggestions.

Trying for allies. improving relations with the birds would be good but probably too late.

knowledge really. Get to learn about any other people of high ranking, determine if they can be an ally or an enemy or neutral, and make good first impressions.

Since we're disguised we can gain info. We figure out who's powerful in particular aspects. Get a sense of who has what goals. See who'd be solid allies or at least pragmatic to associate with. Get a feel of how we're viewed from the outside since we're disguised. People tend to be more honest with feelings if they believe it's said in confidence. See who is friends with who. See who is rivals with who. Perhaps a friend of an enemy would provide backchannel diplomacy if needed. Who would be worth sending spies to. With spycraft as well as diplomacy and economics we can win a war before it begins.

collect information. try to see who are staunch allies of the bird and if this guy is someone that's better to keep neutral ties with or better to improve relations.

I think Gabe should use the opportunity to show that he's learning, and do something nice for Master even though Kol goes next. Whatever He does to Kol, that will leave his ass or mouth or chest open for attention.

“Ooh! Me, master!” Gabe says, raising his hand and waving it. “Let me serve you first!”

Argus pulls his dick free from Casey with a wet sound. She coughs and readjusts her jaw, letting her angelic form fade.

The wolf lifts Gabe’s chin with a finger, turning it this way and that as he assesses the eager sub. “Mmm, as much fun as it would be to keep you waiting again, Its best to start your endurance training right away. Very well, finish your breakfast and get yourself prepped. Be back in 15 minutes.”

A short while later, Gabe finds himself dangling from the ceiling by his wrists. One leg just barely reaches the ground, supporting himself on just the ball of one foot. His other leg is held in his master’s grip, pulled up so that he can ram his fat cock under his tail.

“Ah! M-master! Ah!~” The mouse squeaks as he’s pounded, having to hop on one leg to stay upright. His own erection flails untouched under the constant swaying, wagging back and forth like a metronome.

Leaving us alone with inescapable pleasure invading us, forced to deny ourself with no way of knowing when it will end? Ooh, Master is such a cruel Man! And that's what we love the most about Him, even more than all the other things we love about Him! At least we have the small mercy of being allowed to balance on two feet now. We'd best enjoy that while we can before He does anything tricky with our ankle cuffs. A spreader bar would make this so much worse...

I wonder where Argus got the plug He's using on us. It seems to match His hair color, so I'd fancy a guess that it's a piece of His own angelic essence, just like the collars He uses to keep His grip on us wherever we go. That means our Master is still toying with us right now even when we're all alone! And not just that! If it's a part of Him like our other bindings, He can do so much worse with it than just this intense vibration that's already nearing our limit! It could grow longer, wider, deeper, it could grow nubs to press on our tender insides, it could be ribbed, it could have a knot just barely too wide to pass our delicate hole so we could never get it out... the only reason we have a hope of resisting this is because Master allows it. If He felt like punishing us, He could finish us any time He wanted!

No, it's too alluring, don't think about it. Don't think about the tempting terror of Master's wrath, about having our cock trapped soft and straining behind a lock with no key, about being forced to cum until it hurts so much we beg for the cage, about tentacle whips that leave excitingly painful red marks on our sensitive yellow pelt, about all the worse things Argus could do to us and still pu

A couple hours after preparations are made the Harbinger militia arrives.

the group is being led inquisitor Sabria

Oragatt could...
a) spring the ambush from the front and attack the Inquisitor
b) attack the from the flank and let Herocea handle the Inquisitor
c) Leave herself in reserve and let Herocea fight on her own
d) leave Herocea in reserve and challenge the group herself
and if she mixes magic with any of these strategies how should she do it?

Attack on your own with Herocea in reserve. They'll be used to fighting giants. If they have to shift their tactics to a smaller opponent using powerful magics, they'll be caught off guard when she reveals herself again! Also, her javelins can be tossed from range.

Magnetize: Send someone's weapon into the drink.
Spectral Armor - a surprise buff to Herocea.
Power Strike, Empower Weapon: Well, I don't think these take much imagination.
Rain of boulders - While the enemy leads from the front, the boulders can crush the rearguard.
Molten Bolt and Channel Heat could be used to strike two targets in rapid succession with fire.
Lock Down: Freeze a shield in place, making it easier to work around.

I'd say attack from the left flank, specifically, and leave Herocea in reserve.

* Herocea is the Harbingers' here. If the initial attack goes wrong, we want to give her space to retreat if necessary.

* The Harbinger's original posse are going to be the hardest to take down, given the superior armor and experience, but we might be able to cut down her newer recruits (i.e. the two fish and the dog(?) on the left) before they can respond. Plus, even if we have to retreat, if we drive away most of her reinforcements, she'll have to waste time recruiting again before following Herocea. Opening with Rain of Boulders and following it up by attacking the wounded is probably our best bet.

I agree with leaving Herocea in reserve, as this group has already faced her once before. They would only be more efficient at dealing with her a second time. Let them focus on Oragatt, and have Herocea strike when they least expect it. If Herocea can attack even once while their backs are turned, the results could be devastating. Don't underestimate the power of a giant.

Flank the group. The Inquisitor will take time to bring down, and if you take her head-on then you will be peppered with attacks by the rest of her group while you fight her. Take out as many of the small fries as you can before addressing her.

I suggest Mind Slaving one of them, whoever you think will be susceptible, and having them attack their comrades while you come in from the opposite side, where their attention isn't. Split their attention from the start.

If you can prep it alongside the Mind Slave spell, I would also suggest casting Power Strike for your first attack, to increase your odds of taking someone out of combat before it even begins (or at least leave them in a really bad position). I'd suggest one of the giraffes.

A) Go to sleep.

B) No, stay awake.

Naomi's sudden tiredness worries me. I believe she needs to B: stay awake for a time, for it may be a sign of something far worse.

Ask our princess: is this like normal exhaustion, or does it feel stranger somehow? Did she feel alert before? When did this begin?

A dreadful possibility has risen in my mind: this is an effect of the curse placed upon Naomi. It could mean that we have only delayed its effects, and it is now returning to finish what the Sorceress started. We may need to resume our sexual activities to alleviate it, but only if the princess allows it, and only if it seems to help.

B) The symbol appeared the moment we started fucking her and disappeared when the fucking stopped. It is connected. I guess we will have to give her the best fucking of her life in order to save her life.

Does she feel unusually tired? It wouldn't be odd to be exhausted after what she went through.

If she does feel like she shouldn't fall asleep, then see if the symbol appears if you try the other hole~

I Debugger here, V2 is definitely more of a failure than you are. That's unacceptable behavior. Also, very suspicious. Shouldn't V2 have threatened to disassemble PoC first anyway? If you can't contact the executor, and you can't access the account to even check if it's truly empty, then you need to find someone who can, so you can go through it and see where the money went. It went somewhere it wasn't supposed to, that much is clear now. Well, that, or the notice you got is fake and there is actually still money in the account like there's supposed to be. Don't let V2 know that you are suspicious or that you're going to investigate the trust. V2 is probably just trying to see if you can get him some free money from somewhere, because that's what I'd expect from that sort of behavior. How do you usually get spending money? And what was that you were thinking about people spending money on dinner and cable? Who's "these people"?
I Another thing. There was a point earlier, timestamp 20291128T144319Z where you were having problems, you couldn't do anything? The root cause was there was a tensor at 0x090149A722EF0008 outside of allowed range (which then got normalized), and I'm having problems finding that tensor to check it, since the way I can pull up memories is via word associations, not direct memory addresses. I don't suppose you know how to locate that tensor? Do you know anything about Within? Starting to think your instability is caused by heightened emotions, and V2's issues are caused by lack of emotions or empathy.

What was this? I assume it's the event that sparked your crush on your teacher, but it's hard to tell what happened. You got bullied, and got in a fight, and he believed you and stood up for you, or something? What's going on, exactly? BIt looks like he told you something, something you've been keeping to yourself. "Next time, no one fixes this?" "Naptime, do not picture it?" "That's why no one picks at this?" Can you even remember what he said?

Just saying, that fragment of memory doesn't paint your teacher in a very good light, looking back. I know it feels good that he took your side, especially when no one else was on your side, especially when he's the only one who believed that things weren't OK when everyone else said they were, but I think you might really want to re-evaluate how you see him. You were in a very vulnerable place, and that makes it very easy for the slightest friendliness to appear as divinity. It makes it easier for a predator to make promises without actually promising anything.

I don't think we should take Jaden literally, and actually try to end the guy's life. Being choked and in mortal peril can make a body say all sorts things. If Jaden's still honestly plotting murder after he cools off, then maybe he's another nutter you want to steer clear of. But I think Jaden's got a point in that your teacher isn't looking too great at the moment.

I understood it as "that time never existed" in response to her earlier question

>>1118853
Sort of like how it looked like sir was going to kiss you and Jaiden was our hero heroes get kissed in stories? Also weird Sir left us here

It seems to sound like he's saying, as if voicing her exacerbated mental state and spiraling, "...like I never existed"
to go back to a time before Maya ever existed.

SERIOUSLY WHAT IS SIR DOING AT ANOTHER SCHOOL THAN THE ONE HE TEACHES.

From an opening near the marked door emerges a cloaked and hooded figure. It jolts at the sight of the pair.

FIGURE: “No, no. Not yet, not yet!”

The figure shuffles towards the two and makes a pushing motion.

UBERTO: “What is this? Who are you? Sir?”

FIGURE: “Out, out!”

The repeated commands aren’t spoken angrily or authoritatively. The words quiver as they emerge, as though the speaker is afraid.

Several more figures come from various openings before and behind Sam and Uberto. They trickle out at first, but soon spew forth. All repeat the words of the first. Those only just laying eyes on the pair turn and ask their associates “the Daughter?”.

The wave of coloured fabric creeps towards the two. Sam makes several steps backwards. Uberto follows. The strange people never shove, they simply hold out their hands and walk.

At some point, Sam and Uberto find themselves ushered through a trapdoor, which slams behind them without a trace.

The chapel is, strangely enough, smaller on the inside than it is on the outside.

They stand in the apse. Something like a disembodied black curtain stands before them, obscuring the pulpit.

The curtain turns to reveal it is in fact the Jurist of the Chapel of the Black Pheon, apparently hovering with their peculiar cape resting on the ground behind them. They hang in the air like a ray from a sun that may soon stop shining.

JURIST: “The arrival of Samantha Agonistes, the Daughter of Zelelponith, was anticipated and ordained by the Common Law. The presence of Uberto Di Cesare, the Member for Brackwater, is unexpected, but is accepted by the Common Law. Welcome.”

A thousand questions spin in Samantha’s mind.

>>1118896
What's the Common Law? Who were those robed figures down there? Why's this place sealed up?
Also ask about the book of course.

So was the book's alteration your doing? To get her to come here?

Just what is it you want?

who is this 'jurist' person? do we know them?

temporary aid: life sense; in a limited range Eiko can see the life force of living creatures as a soft glow. This ability is not blocked by walls or other things that obscure sight. The glow is dimmer the closer the creature is to death.

>>1118983
Temporary aid: Enhanced senses. Sight, hearing, taste, smell, touch(whoops those wounds might feel a bit weird!).
Environmental challenge: strange smells are carried by the wind...

BOON:UNlife
You may go into negative stamina and you won't die, even from normally fatal wounds during the duration. The wounds also don't heal during the duration AND you feel them all, including phantom pains from flesh lost. Life transfer into negatives is possible if you don't mind AGONY. At the end of the duration you will be restored to a stable but broken condition at one stamina if you end in the negatives. There may be (potentially permanent) aftereffects depending on the nature of sustained injuries.

ADDITIONAL CONDITIONS:
RANMA 1/2 Activated with a twist: YOU SHALL WEAR BROTHER'S BODY AND FACE

YOU MUST KILL JULIAN WITH YOUR OWN TOOTH AND CLAW.

If you look Julian the eyes to see him desperate and terrified as the life flees his body you'll heal a bit.

Say, some of the low end members you were fighting earlier are still nearby - if they were to see you *now*, I bet they'd be inclined to follow one simple order from you- If they don't piss their pants running first, hehehe.

A trash tier divine trinket flew from Julian's possession in the recent chaos. It's effect is subtle, but if you pluck it from the ground you might just gain the edge on him. But the second angel will see you!

Boon: Plot Kevlar
For the duration of your challenge, you have 30% damage resistance to bullets (30% chance to ignore stamina loss when shot) and cannot be critically hit (headshots, heart-shots) with bullets. None of the above applies to damage over time, arrows, thrown weapons, or melee attacks.

Challenge Success Reward: Neumono Fortitude
You take 15% more damage from bullets. You are immune to critical hits by bullets.

>>1118985
This is good.
A glow of life that can be both seen and scented.
Lean upon her caniform strengths.
Gotta have a good sense of smell.

>>1118976
Yes ma'am!
Time to go see Sinnick.

...She didn't mention luggage before, did she? Hopefully it's at the hotel.

You can't give in to peer pressure. This could be an obvious case of social engineering, and the humans will fire you if they realize you'd cave in to reputation; Mavericks have infiltrated stronger safehouses with flimsier methods.

Oh, get a description of her luggage.

Alright, let's gallop to it.

>>1118976
However this falks, were going to have to go and see sinnik
Goldie looks like a special case in that refusal could result in damage to edens reputation if they end up having a hissy fit and, oh boy, can a goose hiss when it wants to.
So, stabitha, theres got to be a PR department here.
Bounce them a message saying that GG is here and if this id is not found, your instructions would mean you HAVE to bar entry, but you can see that would cause potential issues for the PR dept, so you thought it best to give them a chance to either have a human in authority directly countermand your instructions for this entrant or prepare for the PR meltdown.
Then sinnik.
Need to hustle on this one miss fancypants.
