What's up, everybody? Welcome to Table Stories, Zero Blue O. Ryan.
Hello, how's everybody doing today? Welcome to the show. Hi everybody,
Hi everybody. Hello. Hello, we've been we've been doing like voices
before the show got started for some reason, and I think it's gonna yeah,
it's gonna spiral, just just horrible, horrible ways. Welcome to the
show, everybody. Uh. If you've never seen Zero Blue Ryan before,
uh, you're it's weird. That's it. Roll credits, it's weird.
Game of it's weird. No, we we we we try and do anime
things here. We try it's basically an anime here on the show. And
we have a really good time. It's a good time. It is.
It is described as anime af Lancer. We play the Lancer RPG here.
Uh, and we're in We're in Mecca, We're in mex it's a good
time. It's a fun time most of the time. Uh. There's been
a fairly bit of there's there's been like a lot of traumatic experiences as of
late for the player characters, however, and I'm alright with that because I'm
the GM and I'm making it all happen, So that's fine. With me.
I'm good, I'm good. How's everybody doing today? Did you have
you been having a good time playing Metal Gear Brand have off that series almost
as much as I love the fun and friends of the series. That's suck
class, suck class. It's so weird watching you play Metal Gear Solid for
because that's the only one that I've played. Oh damn really yeah, And
I just don't remember crawling that much. I think I ramboed my way through
because I didn't understand, like what terrific the king. I have a friend
that ramboed his white through and if you killed too many people, snake like
stop. I think I remember that, Like it's like the game it was
fun when I played it, but like I didn't I was never part of
the metal Gear hype because I didn't have a PlayStation. Yeah, so it
was like service was lost on you in that one man. Yeah, So
it was just like a weird experience for me and watching you play. I
don't remember there being that much crawling, Like I was like, well,
I'm crawling. I'll tell you why I'm crawling everywhere because he lean you can
you can kind of crouch and be relatively hidden as well. But because he's
all old. He like stops every now and then and goes, ah,
I just can't do it. It makes me feel too sad. So I
crawl everywhere so it activates my back pain. Yeah, that thing. So
yeah, I've been I've just been crawling through the whole thing. Also,
you have the octo Camo thing, which is fun. Yeah, I love
it. I've just loved the entire thing. I can empathize with the with
the pain. Seriously, I got it, I got I got the ring
fit u and uh, that's just hard, man. It's no joke.
It's no joke. Like people like I watched Tenshi do it, and I'm
like, well, ten she goes to the fucking gym like all the time,
ripped. He's like buffed and he was like sweating, and I was
like, oh my god, what am I What's gonna happen when I try
this done? It's pretty tough. It's pretty For the second time in my
life, I woke up the other day and sprained my back, so I
did I didn't move, but it this isn't be getting out of bed.
I mean I woke up and went and that was it. My My back
went like my lower left back muscle just seized, and I was like,
oh great, really Air did it. The first time it ever happened to
me was like the middle of last year. I just woke up my back.
This waking up is that stressful? Now? My body fuck awful?
Stressful? Now it's horrendous. Yeah, I can relate to him. I
had one of those proper I'm an old dad moments, like I took my
kids to gymnastic and they were doing that thing where you crab where you put
your hands behind your head and then put your back forward. Bridge. Yeah,
the London Bridge. That's it, the London Bridge. I was like,
yeah, I can do that. I remember being able to do that,
and I did it, and then I felt my entire lower back just
lock up and spasm simultaneously, but had to kind of play off the cool
to kids another parents. I'm fine over it until it just mentally went away
and I felt old and horrible. Yeah, say it again? Is that
Christopher Lee? Just now? I think it might be I'm gonna channel that
now. That's how that one's ruined my back exactly. Yeah. And if
Jay sounds different today, that's because he's on He's on the backup computer over
at Millie's house, so we might potentially get him on the go xl R
set up after the break. We'll see, we'll see if if we have
the technology, we'll see if we can make it happen. But let's go
around the room. Let's do some introductions, Let's get everybody in the right
headspace and whatnot for the show. Let's get things started. Brad, would
you be so kind as to start us off? Hmm. Today I will
be playing white Slate, the only member whose brain is still Actually, no,
it's not fully white. This is the very last thing. I don't
know. I don't know how to introduce his character anymore. Once upon a
time he was a delivery boy, and he became the greatest lance of pilot
ever lived in his free of man. And then and then and then he
became responsible for the worst crime ever committed in the history of man, to
be slightly anti authority. Once and now he's a villain who has had his
mind white. And then at the end of last week perhaps had the first
one percent of mind earning my opinion. Yes, I don't know, I
don't know. I don't know how to intro this anymore. It's fucking impossible.
It's too much. It's just too many, like age sixty five and
during chapter seventy one, why it actually experienced it? I can't do it.
I'm here. He's got green hair. There you go, which,
by the way, is like the only plot hole. I feel like,
like, why does he have green hair? Why has he never questioned it?
Has no one ever mentioned it while he's been on the seriff, Like
what like I've been oh scared of anyone asking me about Yeah, Like,
no one's questioned it, you know, because I how does he explain that
one away? Ever? Every day? Why do you have green hair?
Huh, don't you worry. There's plenty of plot holes. That's nice green
hair. O Hey, shut up? Why does that thing? Why does
that check create gravity? We just don't know. Thank you, Brad,
Thank you. I fist of the Walrus WHOA I play Stu Flanagan And he
had the best and also the worst day of his life within the span of
an hour last episode. I went from being on Oriah and realizing that all
of his whimsical and wildest dreams had come true and uh then shortly after he
h you relived the blants over. So, yeah, it's been an interesting
day. I think what are we uh? I think we're sleeping right now.
We found out that I can shoot hard light out of my fingers,
which is pretty cool. That's not going to get him in trouble at all,
absolutely not. There will be no issues with that in the foreseeable future.
Meanwhile, the murder investigation is going on in another part of the ship
because like two people are just dead on the floor. He's not gonna be
irresponsible with it, not at all, not like trying to like light candles
across the room or like cigarettes, like I got your light, I can't
waste to shoot wife in the face. But it's like a horrible it's like
a horrible graphic manga, you know, like it's just like this, you
see everything. It's just blown off, like half of his face. Uh,
yeah, that doesn't happen. I really really hope. I don't have
to make any saving rules for that. So why it would have to make
to save you roll the hit, Why it has to try and save for
death. I'll just do the best way to end the campaign, just just
like a horrible accident, Just like God, everyone line up and grab a
cigarette. I'mnna light them all at once, staff him and zero Blue Orion
ends, Stu kills everyone, and you get some span next and you get
oh god, there's one person on YouTube that's like I called it, look
it up. Stu was the murderer after all. Uh yeah, let's let's
hope that doesn't happen. And uh yeah, I'm genuinely scared about my new
found abilities because Stu will do something stupid with them. It's not a matter
of if, it's a matter of when, and it's going to be.
We need the timer to start now. Jay ah Hi, I'm Jay Britten.
I'm playing Heath, who is back and is now sleepy. But it's
spent the last day. I still can't even remember was it last episode of
the episode before. It's just all blurred into one. Now I'm becoming my
own character. I'm just trying to find all of his old teammates, I
guess, and drag them back into some kind of consciousness. And now we
have stew back in his spandex. I'm very happy about that. And apparently
Heath and Wyret sort of maybe friends now getting glunch. I don't know,
I don't know anymore. And I'm as sleepy as Heath is. I'm just
excited and on. Apparently I'm some magic space GPS, but we'll find out.
Thank you, Heath. PS. Oh god a myth Hi, I'm
myth Hello everybody. I'm playing doctor Donovan Quanta Zephyr. He is a research
scientist of the Seraph who is looking to try to get the team to I
guess interface with the firmament, and so far it seems to be working,
which is terrifying but awesome for doctor ze effort, so that's pretty cool.
Also, Zephyr controls gravity. That's pretty cool. And that's that's me.
I can't wait to play today. Thank you, TB Hi. I'm Pumpkinbery
and I'm playing Fie slash Gabriella for you. And Effie is kind of naive
and hopeful and wants to work with the team, and Gabriella is a tired
old pilot who sometimes has to step up because Effie won't do it. That's
about That's about it for those two awkward it was very awkward. OKAYPG,
thank you, Thank you. I Stephen and I will be your GM of
Doom. I will be dragging the players kicking and screaming through the adventure today,
and we'll see if we can keep it j RPG, like to keep
Pumpkinberry in the right mindset for the show. She's actually playing a j RPG
right now. She's just got one loaded up like on her phone on the
other screen and like playing like a Jay Britten RPG, and I would like
to play that. It's just everyone has Jay's face and everybody's back. Everyone
does their best impersonation. I've made the mistake very quickly of like someone who
comes and watch me, watches my channel who does like lots of photoshops.
And I was playing Dark Souls and we came across a skeleton bent over a
banister, and I stood behind them, and within five seconds in my discord
Art channel, there's my face photo shopped onto my character having sex with the
thorpes. There you go. You don't want my face everywhere. I don't
know if I want to play the RPG no JPG version. I want to
play it more now, but yes, if you haven't seen the show before,
this is a very very anime like Mecca type show. We're kind of
deep into the show at this point. The characters have been through several emotional
rollercoasters. Let's play the anime intro to get everybody going here, and let's
get started. The year is fifty sixteen U. After many failures, Humanity
has reached new heights. Union is responsible for all of it. It is
the Tyrant, the Watcher, and the guiding Hand. The Third Committee watches
over Humanity, but is stretched thin. Threats sloom from the own of ascendency,
overreaching corporal states, remnants of the Second Committee, and other unknown dangers.
Union scrambles to cope with the vast size of the hegemony and these threats
by relying on unorthodox means. On the last episode of Zero Blue Orion,
the group had started experimenting with their firmament abilities, and they had taken trip
into the Firmament a few times, sort of back and forth, trying to
help e Fie aka Gabriella and coax her from her sort of fantasy experience where
she was kind of able to control a dreamlike state. Heath experienced more of
his locational gps LI like abilities and had a little bit of a intense conversation
with Wyatt trying to explain a lot of the things that had happened before the
sort of memory wipe situation occurred. Everyone was sort of trying to remind Wyatt
of the various things that happened, and we had stew experiment with his finger
guns, and Doctor Zephyr was I guess trying to just sort of get everyone
on the same page and try and be able to I guess, figure out
their firmament likabilities. Wyatt seemed unimpressed with the what he perceived to be new
personas and became extremely worried about the mission and the things that are going on.
He had an idea to go meet up with with Asura, who seems,
according to his brother Tivious, to be aware that the Second Committee of
Union the sort of do anything at any cost kind of people the end justify
the means, almost like a remnant of an old sort of shadow like government.
I guess they've kind of taken up that shadow government like a feeling.
The Third Committee, the current representatives of Union have very different philosophies. However,
Tivious has sort of explained that the Second Committee seems to be pulling the
strings here and why it was trying to get in contact with Ashura and right
at the end of last session. A lot of thoughts were running through your
head. Why you were getting little flashes of memory and there was a call
that came through. You get a message on your communicator why and it's essentially
the equivalent of like a text message, and it's from this Alisa person that
you saw in the in the firmament and that everyone says that you know,
and it says meant to send this to you earlier. I saw the video
and this is what it was. So hope this comes through. Okay,
why what the fuck do you think you're doing sending me a message un ingroup?
Did you really that strip? Oh my god? Okay, listen,
I should I'm sorry, I should calm down. I just worry, Okay.
I don't want anything bad to happen to you. Guys. I'm sure
you're stupid for sending something so careless, but I wanted to say thank you
that those things that you said, and I'm sorry. I'm sorry for not
knowing that even though you never said it, you know, I don't know.
I guess your heart is in the right place. Even if you are
a dig and you and you are you know you are a dig. I
hope you know that everything I've done is to protect you all. I know
that you all think I'm crazy. I'm not. I just see things that
you guys don't. And the world is a dangerous place, you know.
And if wanting to protect my friends and my family makes me crazy, then
sure right, I'll fucking take crazy. I'll be all right with that.
Listen. I'm I'm so sorry about Luca. He was he was too good.
And the universe is shitty, you know, if it's not fair.
But just because shitty things happen to you, it doesn't make you a shitty
person. Okay, that goes for Luca, that goes for you, and
God, I hope it goes for me too. I guess what I'm trying
to say is that you don't have to let your past become you. Sorry.
You're right, we are the same. I don't know why I didn't
see as sooner. I just don't want to watch another friend die. I
don't. I don't want to be responsible for another death. And if that
means being away from you guys, if that means stepping back, if whatever
that means, you know, whatever happens to me, I'm alright with that.
I'm at peace with that. Who knows. Maybe I'll see you sooner.
Look at before me? Will you just you just give her a hug
for me? I'm The message also says, uh, he yes, I
scrubbed this from the omni net. And there's like a video, a holographic
video attachment. Do you open it? Yeah? Okay, it's you wearing
some kind of crazy scarf outfit. You have like a big red scarf and
like a blue shirt, and you're quite clearly drunk, and you start rambling
on about the Alisa person and it's almost nonsensical to you. And then and
then it just says, you're welcome. Okay, Well you all used to
be idiots. Mhm, yeah, you're you're kind of like at your own
table in the in the mess hall. You were trying to hope that a
sure would kind of show up, and you're just kind of like at the
table playing this. Is there anyone else here? Maybe like one or two
people, you know, it's it's not busy, like it's an off time,
like lunch has already happened. Okay, yeah, I'll shut the thing
down, and uh yeah, I'll probably I think I would look agitated a
little bit and maybe a little uh, anxious, but I'll i'll, I'll
sit and pontificate and see if the Surer shows up or any of the other
members. I think Tavia said that the entire his entire crew. You did
say that, so I guess any of the others are sure Reaper tried and
Dagabond one of them goes up. I won't give it too long, though,
because I don't want to leave the three crazy people and Quantat for too
long. Okay, m give me a flight ten twenty eleven. So I
think great, as you're about at that point where you're like, no one's
showing up. Trident who you don't know too well? Uh you kind of
you don't see them that much. But uh they're also known as lieutenant siran
Bitat. They have like the normal uniform on kind of like brownish skin.
I think, uh, pretty good looking in like good athletic shape, maybe
like six feet tall or so. They come in and they sit at a
different table. They look at me, Yeah, what's higher and son lieutenant
lieutenant. Okay, I'll give it a moment and then tear around other people.
No, there's only a couple people in here. Yeah, I'll give
it a bit, and then I'll stretch, and I probably have some sort
of empty container. Like I'm still silly a lot, so I probably have
eaten something like I don't have much of an appetite, but I've gotten used
to just eating now when I need to. I probably have some sort of
empty container or a tray or something, and I'll like, I'll stretch a
little and try and casually make it look like I'm walking up to, you
know, either a garbage can or a thing that's near him. And as
I'm like walking past, I'll i'll I'll nod and and sort of casually just
say, lieutenant, yes, uh strange. Actually I just spoke to Tivious.
Sit down. Yeah, how's it going? Sit down? I sit
down. He's like eating and he's trying not to. I think you can
sense there was like an immediate reaction to you saying that, and like he's
trying to play it off. Yeah, and I'm like really casually like leaning
back, acting as as cash as I can. Yeah. No, he's
doing all right. Yeah, he's doing all right. I think I'm just
trying to see his reaction, Like I'm trying to trying to judge whether he
reacts I guess I'm trying to judge whether he reacts nervously or anxiously or or
I guess sort of stiffly, like he's like like I know now what happens
the chain of command, Like I'm trying to determine whether my rec his reaction
is one of I now need to report this, or it's one of oh
fuck, shut the fuck up. There's people around, which is pretty much
how I've been moving around the ships. I'm trying to see which one what
I've evoked from him if I can. I know, there's not really inside
checks or anything. Yeah, just give me a flat D twenty. You
don't have any triggers. They can help you. I don't think. Well,
he looks very anxious and he's trying to hide it, but this isn't
doesn't appear to be his strength. Yeah, I am a leno. Is
he eating some food or something? Yeah? Oh yeah, eating just probably
like you know whatever generic generic rash and type meal, the protein slab and
uh, some nutrient paste. It's something that I can grab with my hands,
like like a fucking fry or something. I'll lean forward to try and
yep, yeah, like whatever it is, chip something I'll lean forward and
as I swipe something off his plate, I'll say, I don't going any
time. I need to know everything you know, and I need to know
now. Then I eat it and sit back. But has it been Are
you doing any training today? No? I'm off today. M hmm.
Yeah, I was thinking maybe I could get some training in with your lot.
To be honest, my lot are all resting after the mission. They're
a bit wiped out. Yeah. The whole squad is off today as well.
Hmmm. I have to make sure we get our rest after a mission.
Yeah, well, I suppose maybe I could see it for sure is
up for maybe something like a one on one training session. You know where
she is. I don't know if she's available right now. I think she
needs to make herself available. I've really got to test out some new stuff
on my Lancer, and I've got to test it out like well yesterday understood.
I'll see if I can reach out to her on the on the colms.
Yeah. I lean forward again and I say, they've all woken up
and they're a fucking ability Okay, and take another thing, and I stand
up. He I think he's probably like he's you can tell he's obviously not
good at this kind of thing, and he's just trying to like cram food
into his mouth. And I definitely want to figure out how he's reacting to
this. Yeah, I think he looks like really uncomfortable and very anxious.
And as he's like chowing down on the food, he's kind of like coughing
a little bit, you know, like as if he's eaten too much.
And he says, uh, he says, lot's going on right now.
There's a lot of things moving behind the scenes. Where was tivous? Are
you lean sideways casually? Yeah? I don't know. He's GoF a two
weeks off. I think I don't know where he went. Where would you
go? Yeah? Uh yeah, great time he is. Uh, you
know what, I'll reach out to Uh, I'll reach out just to Lietunant
Simmons for you, and uh, I'll see if she can get in contact
with you. But she might be really busy right now. Mm hmm.
Yeah, Oh, no worries. I'm gonna go and stay on my same
and I like to stand up, move away, And as I walk past
him, I say, I say, whatever the fuck you lot have been
planning today? Is the day and it goes down even if you're not ready,
And I walk past and go over to the table area, and so
I like trying and casually roll out that that that head on out of the
cafeteria already. M hmm. The rest of you were asleep, sort of
passed out in doctor Zephyr's lab. Uh, why are you heading back there?
Nope? I want to see where this motherfucker goes. I'm going to
try and we're gonna try and tail him. I'm gonna try and tail him.
This is a metal gear play throughth like effect, not really in my
skill set, but I'm the only one left. Everyone else has gone crazy.
Okay, I have to be sure. I have to know if he's
you know, I had to help Mary something there. Sure, sure,
all right, Yeah, I'm trying to hide somewhere. I'm going to wait
and see where he goes to the best of my belie. Okay, No,
I'm not heading back. So you're going to try and follow Tenant be
taught. Mmm. Okay, I would like you to make a stay cool
role for me. Okay twenty two all right, Okay, in the zone
is the force? Yeah, you you find a yeah, No one notices
and you're able to sort of play it off. Cool. Uh he doesn't
come out for like a couple of minutes, but you kind of like maybe
use the bathroom whatever, trying to keep him in line of sight as best
as possible or just trying to delay any suspicion. And yeah, he he
comes out like a little bit of a quicker pace and he uh he starts
to head to the probably one of the barracks of the ship barks where that
alpha squad live. Yes, okay, m M. The command has probably
done stayed there. The generally like the like a lot of the ranking officers
have like nicer rooms. Yeah, but like the regular like crew members and
whatnot. They'll have they'll have like, uh, you know bunks that you
probably have to you know that that are shared, like you might even have
to switch out based on your in the time of the day and whatnot.
So uh, following Lieutenant Patat you get to the to their barracks, he
probably like looks around really like quickly, and he doesn't hit like the the
actual like buzzer for the door. He'll he'll actually like knock on the door
first and then hit the buzzer and he'll he'll, he'll do like a knock.
That's just pretty simple. But it's just kind of there isn't a pattern
to it. It's just like a door opens, he goes inside. Let's
see, who have no door? Give me any sort of perception if you
have it a trigger? Uh? Nope, okay, Flat T twenty fifteen.
Yeah, it was another member of the Sarah Lancers. Uh that time
it was a vagabond, you know, as Lieutenant Barnes. Mmmmm go back
going not uh? Uh fuck it for a penny, in for a pound.
I go up and do the knock. Do you hit the door buzzer?
Nope? Does the doll buzzer do any sort of scan? I think
you would know that. Yeah it does. It's like a people. I
mean, does it scan like my biometrics and know that I've used this?
Or oh leave a log on like some fucking computer somewhere. Question. I
think, uh, travel knowledge, give me a travel knowledge role? Nine?
Usely. I don't know if you know, like you think that's some
doors do you're not sure if the regular barracks doors do. That's enough for
me to knock to check. I just do the knock. No response mmm
Okay, I do the knock and then I hit the fucking thing, all
right. As soon as you do that, the door like opens and Lieutenant
Battat like reaches out and like grabs you and pulls you in. Yeah,
and you can see that way. But I'm concerned I'm about to die.
I'm very prepared for it. You can see like there are weapons trained on
you as you go into the room. Uh, you can see that it
is, uh the entire Sarah Lancer squad in here. And yeah, they're
they're basically all pointing weapons at you and lieutenant uh, Lieutenant Battant and I
think Surah looked like they were in the middle of a conversation, like they're
they're sort of like right next to each other. They had a posture like
they were in a in a conversation and were interrupted. Why is this happening?
Hold on, let me just reload this real quick. Sorry? Why
did it load this? The wrong game? Really playing? Now? Sorry?
What were I playing when I came into the room? What were they
playing? As in like a board game or something. Yeah, I'm assuming
they were playing like it was some of those Wizards Lords of Water Deep.
I survived, Okay, so you get pulled into the conversation basically, uh
physically and and uh and and uh figuratively and uh. I sur U is
kind of like looking at you, like, what are you doing here?
Ah? I think you know exactly what I'm doing here. You slipped me
this my wife about the thing? Have it actually give it to the others?
I don't. I think you gave it to them and they looked at
it. I don't remember if they gave it back or not remember either.
Yeah, you slipped me a little present, and I am desperately in need
of some friends here. So hello friends. I told you he was very
insistent. I'm not trying to throw a wrench into whatever plans you've been working
on. All right, didn't you even check to see if you were followed.
It's not like we're hiding in a back room somewhere. We're in our
racks, right, listen. If they're following us, whether games up anyway,
I've got about an hour before my lot wake up, and they're not
exactly exactly acting themselves there. Whatever the fuck has happened, whatever the fuck
you understand, I don't know, but I'm a little bit fucking lost,
and I feel like I'm swimming out into a deep blue sea here. All
right? Uh there back all their memories or whatever they're doing, all sorts
of weird ship they're running off Dan Corey access the moment? What the firmament?
Yeah, yeah, yeah they can do that. They can do whatever
they can and do again, this aura is going to be a problem.
I know, I know, what do you want me to do? I
think you have to do what Captain Slat would want you to do. Do
you know where he is? Why? At? Nah? I was really
open. You'd tell me you said you saw him? Did you mean on
the video? Yeah, that's what was on it. Have you seen it?
No? He helped me to come to you. Great, All right,
look, what do you know? Well, I guess we're a group
of people that had our mine's wiped? Are you as well? If you
were working up what the fact? Did you lot day? We were just
soldiers aboard the ship? They do read? No? You sure sure as
we can be? Yeh? All right? What about everyone else? The
commanders? I think the Tsauras had her mind wiped a few times. How
do you know? It just seems like that kind of person. All right,
Well, speculation aside. We're not sure. Ll Tiva seems to think
it's h It goes all the way up to the typically top by a lot.
Have been talking about Second Committee. They've got a plan, although it's
a sort of based on all sorts of hohoha. They're going to find someone
some sort of make out there. There's a bit of a rat race,
I think when the Union descendancy, maybe some other parties. Yes, Second
Committee. I don't know how they were able to get so many high ranking
people involved in all of this, but your lot appears to be some sort
of They appear to be some sort of experiment of the Second Committee. Yeah,
we've sort of pieced that together near as I can tell, that only
leaves us with a few options. I'm inclined to find your brother so that
he can give us some guidance here, but beyond that, we either have
to take control of this ship or get off of it and somehow get all
of you off the grid. Mhmm. Or we can see exactly what it
is that they're trying to do here and help or try to hinder them based
on whatever it is that they're trying to do. And no, we're going
to do that they're controlling all the information. Tried looking up a name,
and that's what flagged for a lots on unless we can and no gain access
to one of the commanders solves. But even then I don't trust or we
can get in contact with the Third Committee, and maybe I don't know they
can resolve everything right now, you do you propose we do that? Well,
if we're able to get maybe off the ship somehow, we can maybe
send another transmission through the Omni neet, right, we can get off the
ship if are we're going to go? And what about the fact that we
are in the Harrison Armory purview? You don't think that they're looking through the
messages. We don't know if the Harrison Armory is part of the Second Committee.
That's just your conspiracy theory. Well, I think it's a pretty good
conspiracy theory. Ultimately, we just don't have enough information. Yeah, I'm
practically doing all of this on a conspiracy theory, all right. That and
the trust that my brother knew what the fuck he was doing and he seemed
to trust you a lot. Okay, and I who are compelled trust my
lot. They are different though their skill set has changed, but they have
skills with a degree, but it's not the same and not under my control.
I'm concerned that they are and it get us all caught, and we
might only have one shot at this. They can wipe all of our minds.
They can wipe all of our minds, and that could be it.
Lieutenant Poole, also known as Reaper, who's been quiet through this whole thing,
sort of he pipes up and he says, what about the fir moment?
Yeah, can you do what THEICH can do? I don't know what
the fuck the it can do, but I mean they can do some stuff.
I can do some stuff, but I don't know what kind of stuff.
Well, one of them, one of them, is acting like sort
of a sonar sort of map. He's a GPS and he can find stuff.
But he wasn't able to find Tivious. He was able to locate something
that they believe is what everyone's on this race to try and find first.
In the second committee, being at the head of it, I think we
know where it is and we're going to try and get to it first.
Frankly, it's our priority, Tivous coming second. Unless you can sway their
minds. Rather, it's coming second, Yes, because or whatever this thing
is, it's a big deal, all right now. I don't want to.
I don't want to expose ourselves trying to find tivious and then we lose
this information, We lose our only chance to get to this thing. The
whole reason that they've done all of this to us, you to whatever the
fuck is going on here. They're after this thing, and I think we
can get to it first. You mean second committee, Yeah, maybe,
or whoever is at the top of this. It's a mech I think a
mech. Yeah, and we just printed out No, I don't think so.
It's a weird looking thing. Uh. They called it, uh Loui
Ryan. There's also someone else called gold Lion might be involved. Gold Lion,
I think that's his code name. I'm not sure. Some of the
others seemed to know a bit more than I do. Barnes, is that
the is that that one pilot sounds familiar? Didn't they die? I don't
think anyone knows, just a story. So gold Lion. You're saying that
this gold Lion, you found gold Lion and there what what are they doing
with this? Mac can just printed? No, I don't I don't think
so. I don't know. I don't know the others. They know they
stayed in there and came up with a plan. I think, Ah,
listen, whatever happens, Yeah, Michael, he's the one that you need
to keep safe first comes to worst. The only one you've got to get
off this ship is him. He's the sonar, He's the He's the one
that can track it, find it. Whatever it is, whether it's a
downing or second Committee or whoever. Well, you don't want them to get
into it first. Whatever their intentions with it are, they're willing to go
to this sort of a length. What about everyone else? I don't know.
I don't know what the fuck they were doing before. But uh,
well, Stuke can, I don't know, shoot lasers from his hands.
I guess sounds ridiculous. I know they're all looking at each other like what.
Yeah. Gabriella can. I don't know what it is she can do,
but she can summon up images. She can to take us to like
her. I don't know if it's her dreams or a fucking pocket dimension or
what she can. She can draw on some information and frankly, the information
that she's pulling seems to be a little bit more legit than the information that's
being kept from us, so I'm going to trust it for now. And
they sort of pulled together this info and that's why they come up with this
plan. All right. They've got a plan. I don't know what the
details are, but we're going to try and get to this mech before the
Second Committee does, before the Onic does, or anyone else does. That's
the plan. And our plan was pretty similar to yours. Either take over
the ship, get off it. What does finding a mech do for us?
I'm not sure it's just a mech. I don't think it's just like
the fucking Max weir In. It's weird looking. I felt uncomfortable looking at
it. It looks so how did you say, uh, Gabriella can summon
up images? I don't know. I don't know how it works, right,
it's all firmament bullshit. Gonta understands it. They seem to understand it.
They seem to believe that what they can do is legit. Okay,
I think I've got the least information out of everyone here. I'm just trying
to keep you together, all right. Well, we can't meet up like,
as a group, this is already looking suspicious, and I don't know
if anyone followed you. That's right, we need to be careful, be
careful. I think we might have to go. I think this might be
it right now, right now, fucking soon. Listen, the first fucking
thing one of them did when he woke up Stew his memories is the real
Stew or whatever the fuck he is now, he just bolted naked, started
running down the fucking corridors. They don't seem to fucking understand. I told
you, naked guy, I thought you were just bullshitting right. Yeah.
Not only that, their fucking powers are going. Hey, Wire is firing
off lasers. Punta's controlling fucking gravity gravity. I think so like you can
turn the fucking anti grave on and off. I reckon, We're better off
making a move before the court, whether it be take over the stucking ship
or bail. Look, we need to get a secure, calm channel.
I'll work on setting up some kind of encryption with Vagabond, and we'll communicate
with you. It's the only way that we look like we're not well plotting
something. Talk to your people. I suppose we'll see if we can get
off the ship, steal a shuttle, try and cloak it from the sensors.
Yeah, okay, yeah, we can load it up with the lancers.
I mean we are a lancer pilots. She starts to write down like
a channel frequency number, and probably like just she'll just give you like a
uh you know, something something with it written on it. I don't think
there's really paper here, so like they probably she probably like tears off like
a piece of blanket or something and has to improvise it. She'll just give
it to you. This is all right, We'll contact you through this chain.
Talk to your people. Uh okay, Like I said, remember it's
Michael. Yeah, he's the key of anything. If we can't get off
the ship, make sure he gets off the ship, take him, follow
him, try and get to whatever the fuck this mat is. All right,
one of our squads has to fucking do this, all right if he
has trusted you, so I'm trusting you, all right, all right,
everyone knows what you need to do for now at least, and we'll see
if we can come up with some kind of plans going yeah, all right,
good luck, good luck. I uh they h where do you go
now? I'm back on his office. Okay, um, make a stay
cool role for me. Yeah, okay, may Hi on the way back
to uh doctor Zephyr's office. Uh, you've run into Lieutenant Desorrah and I
think oof six guards mm hmm, and she says, ah, good to
see you. She salutes. Then in commander, where were you going?
I was just coming back from the barracks. Your barracks, no, those
of the Alpha team. And how is the Alpha team doing well? They
are resting much like mine, unfortunately, rather hoping to get some training in
and some plans. That's good. How are you feeling mm hmm, A
little tired, little afraid? I think after coming back from that mission,
I feel like I should have had some sleep, but I didn't, So
maybe I should get some rest as well. You know, you need to
keep up your rest. It is very important. Yeah, yeah, maybe
I'll do that. Have you had any luck with the firmament? I know
it's only been a short amount of time, but I thought i'd ask since
we ran into each other here. I, uh, yeah, actually we
did. Oh have you now? Hm? I would like to try and
fucking teleport to Quanta's office. Oh my god. Okay, I'm fucking lunching
so hard over here. I'm like, so I would like you to,
uh, don't do it yet, but it's going to be a firmament role.
I don't even have fun. And do I need to add this or
trigger? Which sheet are you using? Oh? The the morning cloak is
on the Nelson Yeah, I put it on the Nelson one. But yeah,
it's the same thing. So now you have used your hours. Uh,
but it's the first time today, so go ahead. And actually I'm
sorry, hold on, it's not one difficulty, all right, yeah,
because I yeah, okay, here's the difficulty. Oh no, okay,
listen, perfect the first time in my life. I'm gonna believe. Yes,
wow, I like because I believe that I can do it. That's
the thing I've seen the others do it. That's why I say to her,
we have had some success. And then I'd like to fucking blink.
Absolutely gone. You feel the sensation of cold water sort of being spilled out
onto you and mhm for you lies. Doctor Zephyr's office is an even wake
They're all asleep. Fuck, hey, wake up quickly, bive more minutes,
ma'am. I'm not fucking slapping what's going on? And up they're coming?
Who's coming? Fucking everyone? Probably everyone? What do you mean everyone
is? What? Well? I just fucking blinked away from Lieutenant Commander Zorah.
I don't know if she knows that I've come here, She's probably gonna
guess I've come here. We need to fucking move. We need to move.
And then I take the rag and I shove it in Heath's hands.
Blinked. What do you mean you blinked? I fucking fucking teleported here.
Uh fucking John Mack. I don't describe it in front of in front of
the lieutenant Command of Disorder. Yeah, she she had my number PEG.
I'm standing there fucking shaking because I need a fucking cigarette. Okay, that's
what's fucking happening here. I'm freaking out. I've just been to see the
fucking Alpha crew and they they they're on our side. They are the only
ones that understand everything that's going on. Okay, we we have a plan.
Now, we're getting off this fucking ship. Right, We're gonna They're
going to contact how any weapons or anything in here? Do you need a
light? By the way, No, I don't. I don't want no,
no, no, I don't want to anything. I need a I
need you to hold onto that. See that that rag, yes, is
that has got the They're going to contact us on that. It's a secure
line when they get it going, and when they do, we're going to
get going, all right. Do they have a plan for getting us off
of here? I think they're going to boost a shuttle you have like a
I don't know. I don't know what they're going to do, all right,
but we're gonna have to trust them. They know about basically everything that
we can do, you can do. They know that he's a sonar.
I told them about the Blue O Ryan, but I don't know who gold
Lion is or why we have to go there then, but they know that
it's the priority. All right, all right, I'm very I'm very confused.
You told everyone of everything and we are now leaving. Yeah, that's
all right. I think that it was better that I do a controlled demolition
rather than let you lot run around naked. Okay, Well, are we
heading to the shuttle bay or what? What's the plan here? I don't
know. If we need we need to, we need to be Everyone on
this fucking ship is probably going to come for us. I would just that
we either head for the Lancers or we head to the armory and try and
boost some guns. I don't know, but they probably minimum are coming after
me. So maybe I should split up from you lot. You lot go
one way, I'll go the other. They don't know about you, They
don't know about you. They know about me, now, don't they?
Well we should stick together. Well, I just go for a fucking formuth
lip and then bounced through the fucking firmament or whatever the funk happens. I
don't know what the fuck happens. It's extremely uncomfortable, which your destination was
here, You're very hungry and getting tired. Why, probably going to pass
out, So maybe I should just not right, but I can go one
way, you go the other way. Not with the not with your lack
of energy. I believe we could we could probably maybe if we take the
tank, we could bring you in the tank and then you could be able
to get the tanks down the corridors. I'm not exactly sure, but they
figured this would be they're going to Now I look around. Is there an
air event or anything that we can just start crawling in to get out of
this flip in office. Go ahead, and uh, do you have spot?
I don't know who you are currently, I'm Gabby, So Gabby does
not have spot, but I do have investigator. Uh yeah, okay,
all right. There is most likely ventilation here because of doctor Zephyr's requirements for
a room, so it would have been some I'm guessing just to help with
experiments or anything along those lines, not just personal gas. But there is
there is probably some ventilation here. Yeah, it's not exactly like huge ventilation
like, but we could crawl through it potentially really uncomfortably and not well.
But probably Doc, what about that? Where does that go? Do you
know that would go towards a blower? I guess I'm not not exactly sure.
I've ever been, nor have I seen them they have any way?
Do they have any way? If identifying? Fuck? Come on, look
this giant door that will feel all of us through it. It's just a
mild idea. Well, but they're gonna see us if we walk through the
front door. I think would have it passed the point where we need to
be stealthy, we need to be gone. All right, then let's go.
Probably they're not going to use any way for weapons, all right,
but they're gonna they can't let them take any of us. Let's go.
I open the door and I will go underneath Wyatt. I'll take one arm
and I will help carry him fuck out of here, and let's run all
of my research just can't all right, give me one second. I try
to grab as many tablets as I can. There's no time, doc,
all right, and he just grabs one betray of food and he is out.
Like if I guess, like in front of Fie and Wyatt, like
looking down the carridor seeing what otermediate out is, if there's anybody there before,
we'll let you out. Okay, So looking outside, you can see
that there are people that look like they're heading towards the towards the lab.
They have weapons. How many are there? They're very first pilot encounter there.
I'll tak on the bugs, I guess, all right, Oh yeah,
yeah yeah, there are four people outside with weapons running towards the lab.
Do do we have our pilot gear? No? And how far away
are they down the hall? Like how far down the hall? Can we
like run the other way or is it they're going to shoot us and maybe
hit us. UH. The office is positioned in a way that this is
the only hall that you can sort of exit from. Uh. I would
like to try something. Can I use the firmament to make them see an
empty hallway? This would be you can try and this will be with too
difficulty. Okay, yeah, explain how this happens. Okay, So I
have I'm holding Wyatt and this is Gabby, so she's a little bit better
with a firmament anyway. But I guess I've learned that I can kind of
project images or memories specifically, So I'm just going to imagine the hallway completely
empty. I reach my hand out, the other hands still holding Wyatt's arm
over me, and I just fucking these are not the droids they're looking for.
Straight at them, and maybe they stand there for a second and they're
like oh, or maybe they keep running and go into the room, but
they don't notice us. Absolutely, I think that's exactly what happens. They
run into the room and they're just where'd they go? They were here a
second ago? Is this is this what they were talking about? I don't
know. Lieutenant Commander Desira said that they they might be special or something like
what what does that even mean? They're like arguing with you the way in
case you couldn't tell, they look like they look like metal gear. NPC's
like, huh, this episode is called and you book it out of the
room. Where do you go? I'm I'm gonna just let's see if this
works while we're on it. Heath is gonna like get to like somewhere where
it looks like we're safe. Pause. I don't want to see if I
can use my firmament power to sense the route to wherever it is we need
to get on this ship. Oh okay, this is with one difficulty,
a fable twinkle path. Okay, actually, let's just do the difficulty first.
Yeah, yeah, it starts well, okay, yes, So to
be clear, what did you ask for again? So I wanted to sense
the right path to get through the labyrinth of the ship to where we think
we need to be. So either like the hangarbay where Alpha Squad is.
I think that's I imagine that's how Heat's power works. That he doesn't necessarily
know where the end point is. It's just the end point that's needed at
that moment. He tries to sense it a plot finder. Yeah, what's
that move in masks where it's like, what's the best when you sense the
thing? What is the best way to deal with this situation or whatever that
one was? Okay, so I need to think. You need to do
some mental chess. Okay, So you head to the hangar bay where your
mechs are, and you do it in such a way that you avoid the
patrols or people that might be trying to find you. You arrive at the
hangar bay, you can see your mechs sort of have been repaired and are
ready to go. Is our pilot gear with our mechs or was it somewhere
else? Give me a flat D twenty. It is, it's story here,
Oh my god. Then doing it yeah, immediately suits up. Ye,
same absolutely on my stems here, I mean old lucky stems, all
of your pilot gears here. Oh my god. Yeah, I was about
to pass out. I would like to point out that Heath, you and
Gabriella are like super super hungry and getting to the point where it's like one
of the sleeping didn't help at all. It did, but you've used your
powers. You need like a proper sleep. I have a tray of food
on the way out, I he did. I am throwing stems up at
them as well. I have three. I just fucking I'm whoop whooped stem
a clock. I trust Wyatt implicitly, so I just jabbed that sucker right
in my thigh immediately. Heath doesn't care about what he sticks in his body,
so he's yeah, we learned that in the stuff straight in. Okay,
what do you think you feel like as soon as you take the stems,
it's probably like one of those like hypospray type, you know, like,
yeah, all right, it's kick for sure, because that's the only
one I carry the stem needle and a spray. That's terrifying. Kick is
keep a pilot awake and alurk up to thirty hours. So it's just cocaine.
I think heart starts sons of caffeine. Yeah, probably alert wide awake.
Yeah, like all right, I think I imagine like Heath has been
in some state of either constant exhaustion or a hang over for his pretty much
his entire adult life. So he's just like just sort of feels like what
I don't drink? Interesting, as if he's just the first day he's ever
not had a hangover. Did you what was the Jason state of the movie.
Crank was a crank? Yeah, as soon as he gets like power
up, you know, as soon as as soon as he activates. That's
what it's like right now. And you guys ready, it's a jump cut
montage. I want to while while you're getting ready, you're getting a communication
on that line. Are we getting into mix here? We are? What
are we doing? Uh? I long off the communication for a second.
Everyone huddling real quick. Okay, yeah, right right, remember no kill
shots, okay, anyone prisoners like us. But we need to get a
fuck off of this fucking ship. Okay, priority. He honestly, he's
the son, he's the GPS. We're gonna try and link up with the
others. And I lean into uh to Gabriella, and I say, I
give her a hug, And I say, can you pass this on to
f from someone called Elsa? Uh? Yeah, yeah I can. And
get the fuck off me? Yeah, pushure off me. So awkward.
It's just like everything everything is just like quiet except for the alarm in the
background, like while this is happening, and like everyone's looking at you like
it's worries. I don't know if I had another choice, it's it's a
chance to do that and I pressure off me. All right, So what's
the plan. Well, let's find out and I'm access the community payer and
do what they say. Meanwhile, quantas getting into a wet suit, just
changing naked next to all of you as you just gets into a wet suit,
like just like that's what old people do, right. There's always an
old man exactly, guys like naked swimming in the lake or at the gym.
He's always naked exactly. He's just changing his socks. But he has
to get naked to do it. I just need to get into this wet
suit, your old man thing today. I don't know what that is.
This. I just want to carry like a little tube of like just like
he does that, just to get into the suit. Easy, all right,
And before you're able to use the communicator, we're going to take our
break. Yeah already, that's right, so we could fix our go excels
right, all right, right, but we are going to take a little
bit of break here. Let me turn off the alarm. We're gonna take
a little bit of a break. If you have not done so, please

do that. I will do that. But we're gonna take a little bit
of break here, folks. We'll be back in just a little bit.
Hang tight for more, Zero Blue Orion back in just a few Welcome back,
everybody the table story Zero Blue Oriyan. Oh no, the ship has
hit the fan. Ye, welcome, that's the wrong one. There we
go again. So the comm alert he's coming through on that channel? What
do you do patching it through to all of us? Can? Is that
a thing I can do on the secure channel or not? Yeah? You
gave basically everybody has to plug it into their calm all r. Yeah,
and I can hold the sign up at Okay, what did you do?
Uh? Well, I kind of got busted. As soon as I walked
outside. Tasora came after me straight away. She must have known something was
up. All right, all right, Uh, we didn't have any time
to plan or what did you come up with? We're in the hangar bay,
we're outside the lances. All right. Uh, you're going to have
to get your lancers to a shuttle. Yeah, that's the plan, all
right, get them into the shot. I immediately bailed to go start doing
that. Yeah I do. As well. As I hear him say that,
I'm like, all right, I'm going all right, get get your
answers into your shuttle and we'll try and meet up with you. I don't
know if we can get to our answers. I don't know if we'll have
enough time. Do you need to get on this show or are you gonna
be out of pature on. Let's see what we can do. Let me
know before we well, i'll let you know before we Yes, just get
to the shuttle. Yeah, good luck, good luck. And then I
just shouted the ovids all right, everyone to you, Oh fuck, can
you lock pilot lanswers? Yeah? Yeah, yeah yeah, or any of
you really good at piloting a shuttle? Yeah you are? Yeah? Okay,
right, okay, yeah I could act like I'm good. No he
really could. No, No, not just getting getting the lancerck get today.
But we need to find a shuttle. So this kind of a hangarbay?
Is it like a big fucking lancers are separate from the from the shuttle
to come and find some other shuttle somewhere else in the fucking lances we do
that? Is that possible size lancer? Well, there's got to be some
kind of transfer station because your lancers to get loaded onto shuttles and whatnot.
Yeah. I was just gonna say like they're probably hooked up. We can
literally just load on. I guess. My guess is, My guess is
there's like a kind of like a bridge to the next to like the Shuttle
Bay area, and there's probably like a you know, like a conveyor belt
of some kind to move them along if if nobody's like in them to pilot
them, so there there would be some kind of connection or something for sure.
Uh So I bailed the second I heard get to a shuttle and I
wanted to head to the Shuttle Bay area and see if there was one that
I could grab. Okay, so you're going for the shuttle before your lancer.
Well yeah, because I'm assuming though the lancers are like hooked up and
I can literally just like they're on like a conveyor belt line. Right,
if I get to the Shuttle Bay and I'm like these four lancers, it'll
move the lancers for me, right, nobody actually has to get in,
okay, our lancers dry clean? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
okay, Okay, I get in my drag cleaned lancer, though not a
record. I'm getting in the morning cloak white, Okay unless the other one
who's prepared, But I don't think I actually to set it up encarrent then,
so I don't think I would, ok it, Okay, all right,
uh Gabriella, give me a flat D twenty. Okay, I didn't
investigate. I don't know if you would prefer idea. It's a different one,
Okay. So looking inside, you can see that there there are personnel
in the shuttle bay, and I think that they have like battle station kind
of like protocol, like they go they sort of like lock things down and
sort of like uh close like any any actual uh like openings on the ship
for you to like leave. There's probably like an energy shield to land and
whatnot. So the the they don't need like an air lock or anything,
but they actually have like an actual gate that sort of would come down.
Okay, And can I can I run up to somebody who's in charge here?
How do I know about the like protocol, Like is the alarm blaring
is just like all hands on deck emergency? Right, Well, you've landed
on the ship. I mean you've you've like flown your lancers down to Thesus
five, and right I'm just wondering if I'm just wondering if there's a separate
protocol for like an internal issue versus just a regular red alert all hands on
deck. Basically, can I walk up to this fucker and lie or am
I? Okay? Yeah, that's what I want to do. I want
to run up to him or her or whoever it is there and immediately just
look, we've got lancers down here. There's an issue outside the ship.
We need a shuttle with four lancers loaded on it. Stat give me a
give me a flying D twenty unless you have some kind of deception. Yeah,
I have show off. I don't know if that counts. Okay,
nine, that was That was That was a serious attempt at trying to get
get some skill by I think I'm not sure what else to use that on
because you've literally never let me use it fair all right, that's a good
point. I don't know either, And show off enough needs to be more
like Jerry exactly. Okay. So you can see. You can see it's
a woman and she she's like looking at she like, what what are you
doing here? You're supposed to be in your barracks. It's an emergency and
we need lancer pilots on a shuttle now. But but this is the wrong
alarm. This is for the for an internal emergency. I'm gonna take her
out. I'm gonna knock her right out, Okay, try and take her
out. Oh yeah you do. Oh I just I just immediately, just
like you know, I don't know, karate chopper on the neck and knock.
Yeah, just kick a few times. Yeah, no, I just
yeah. Probably I don't have a I don't have a pistol. I have
a rifle with me, so I probably just use hand hand combat and I
kind of hit her probably up in here nerve, and just she just goes
unconscious also the ground, and I kind of like I would like to like
set her kind of behind the calm panel so it's not super obvious. I'm
just gonna rest her there, and then I'm gonna take any of the ID
or key or card swite that I need and hit that terminal and start getting
up us a shuttle. Awesome. Yeah, there's there's some other personnel.
What I'd like for you to do is to give me. Do you have
any kind of like stealth thing to help you. There is no traditional stealth
in the trigger, so it's just take somebody out, get somewhere quick.
I think I have survive. I don't know if that would count. That's
like like more like a survival D and D type thing, and no,
I don't think I do. Okay, Flanty twenty then yeah, okay,
yeah you're able to do this. I guess everybody else is busy with their
jobs or you're getting all this set up, but there's other people around and
they're probably like you're getting the shuttle, like I guess, set up to
receive, so like it's on probably like a you know, like a swiveling
type platform, so like there's probably like a like a like some kind of
a mechanical like you know, where the shuttle's kind of like turning so that
it can like load the mechs on, and it's set up like it's it's
starting to turn. You guys can see like the the mechs are starting to
get like loaded on into the conveyor belt like in a line so that they
can get loaded onto a ship. What are you doing? We know in
them. We don't be in them. It's up to you. You don't
have to. I would assume yeah that we I mean I would have tried
to get in it and be just fucking tyken with it. It's a much
I've got a sup. What the fuck? Okay, what happened to my
go excel there, it's happened to you as well. Yeah, okay,
there we go. I got us a shuttle and it's loading up now.
So if you're gonna get better, get in your neck and do it fast.
Already hot on the line. I think you see the I think you
see the size too. I don't even remember what it's called. The the
iskender. The head like lowers like down its chest and then from its chin,
you see, very like the the like that that tank we saw,
that prismatic tank that we saw in the office, that lowers from his chin.
And then I climb up and into the uh into the pool of wacky
tank and then it raises back up into it where the head piece would be.
And then I'm all right. I mean I think like as he was
getting in, he did done that, you know, climbing up in and
as he kind of steps in into like take a second just to tap the
side of it and go, hello, my little palace, I have missed
you, little snuggle his butt right down back in. All right. Once
you're loaded in, why you better get to the front guy. Somebody cleaned
me inside of my mic. What the heck? Everything was arranged in here
perfectly? Well, I hate it. I think the last thing you remember
in your mac, the last thing you remember in your mech were the photos
that got all melted too, everything like you're horribly distorted face like you know,
horrific, this horrific smile plastered everywhere. Okay, So I've been rolling
for various things while this has been going on, by the way, and
I've been rolling fucking garbage. So, uh, you are able to load
in the mechs. Apparently the guards went to the wrong location. Oh it's
just like one of those subtuicules of if someone is acting like they belong there,
nobody thinks anything of it. They're just like, oh, okay,
she must supposed to be here. I guess I just had to clipboard and
a high vision yeah, and I'm like all right here I am. Okay,
then I would like to dash over to the shuttle and get on as
long as I have set us up to go, meaning like that barrier that's
there, I'd like to remove that as well, and like open the gate
and get us ready to fly out. Okay, give me another flat D
twenty okay, twelve. Wow, you guys, the luck for this episode
is uncontrollable. I don't want to do anything because i't want to break type.
So you're able to kind of do this and I think, Yeah,
the the hatch like opens, the energy shield is still up, which is
a good thing. Okay, Yeah, you want the energy shield up to
hold the atmosphere in here, and you all get loaded up. It's it's
not like a super fast process, but you kind of you got lucky here.
I'm not kidding. I made like four rolls this whole time and they
all failed. Can I roll for one more thing? I just want to
see if I picked a shuttle that has a printer on it. I mean
I have a personal printer in my effects, but I mean like a mac
printer. Yeah, go for it. Okay, I'm gonna say you've got
one difficulty, okay, because I would have tried to look for one.
Yeah, the ship is hit by a me too. Unfortunately. No,
Okay, do they still us there's the the medical ship that we had.
Wouldn't that be I know, I guess that would probably be my usble have
taken its Yeah, that ship got all fucked up too, Yeah, due
to me a certain grappling hook accident, A grappling accident. I dash on
board then at that point, and if no one else is off their mechs
yet, then I will head head to the pilot's seat. I would assume
if I had got on the ship, I would have headed for the pilot.
So you told me to do it. I didn't respond, but okay,
I wouldn't. I want a medical pilot if you're there, there whatever.
There has been no communication from the Alpha team. Yeah, I was
going to put in a communication to them, and yeah, on the secure
line, they're better off. Honestly, they're better off just waiting. They
don't know that they're involved. A response, hmmm, I'm going to open
the rear bay doors on our sholl and I'm going to patch into the others.
Anyone go any clamps or grapples or something, I do. Cut af
the comms and just speak to you sat next to me on your dancer.
Attach yourself to the back, okay, because if they're coming here, they
need to be able to run onto the back of the ship. Are you
sure? Yeah, I'm not leaving without them. I wasn't. I wasn't
suggesting that, but it'll be kind of risky to make sure they get into
the ship and then it closes before we exit, all right, helping us
out if I covering support, If you can use smoke instead of bullet,
that be good. Okay, then yeah, I run to the back to
my mech. Okay, And just to be clear, you're going to hook
yourself up with a grappling hook. I want to I want to visualize this.
Yeah, sure, so will I run back and I'm I would try
to relay this what we're trying to do to everybody else first, because I
don't want to do it by myself. Are you guys still in your michs
or did you get out? He's probably still in his I think, okay,
I'm still in my mech and I'm waiting the orders. Okay. I
think what we're going to try to do is we need two people hopefully on
the outside. We're going to open the bay doors and we're waiting for Alpha
Team to come in. So we're going to hang on the outside, either
with a grappling hook or something like that, use smoke or some other way
to kind of cloud vision. Once they get here and then we're going to
try to get them onto the ship, close the bay doors, and then
launch. Can anyone else help me with that? I mean, I'm still
in my mech. I'm just not sure what I can do to distract them.
Well, anything non lethal would be great. Mm. I don't know
if my mech gyle non lethal. I'm only really built for punching. And
if I'm really honest, and I really want to hang out the back of
a ship again anytime soon, talk what about your gravity stuff? Yes,
I am. I'm on my way now, okay, just very cramped and
hear I'm trying my best to move towards the back of the ship here,
okay. And then I hop into my mech and the Death's head actually has
clamps on the bottom so it can walk on things. So I will actually
crawl like a spider out the bay door and just kind of onto the edge
of it so that I can kind of sneak back in, and then I
have grabby hands that hopefully will help me latch onto people. Okay, Now,
just to be clear, Quanta, you have a size two it's candor,
Yeah, yeah, I do. The mech is probably like all hunched
up like loading onto the shuttle and everything too. It's like, you can't
really go higher than this, right, Like, I think anything that you
do with your mech while you're inside the shuttle right now has too difficulty to
at least. Yeah, I'm having a very hard time maneuvering the mech inside.
It's a transportation posture here. I can't quite, I can't, I
can't quite you know what to one second and you start to hear the the
bubbles over the radio, and then he starts to disengage out of his mech.
This is quanta. I'm still reporting, and he shows up next to
you. Oh fantastic, in a wet suit, soaking way. Oh how
is this going to help? I'm sorry, I would have to tap into
the phonem and myself. Oh all right, well that'll work. Yeah.
Well yeah, let's see. I open my scanning so I can see if
anybody's approaching the hangar bay. Oh yeah, just because there's no way that
I can allow this to happen without any cards at this point, even though
I rolled another fail. It's uh, there would definitely be guards showing up
after he's like opened up the hangar bay doors, and there's probably like over
the I mean like there's probably you're getting like notifications like the doors are about
to close. Now, Okay, there are guards and there's a whole shitload
of them, Ryott, we have guards coming up down the corridor here nine
guards, at least nine. No sign of Alpha Team. No sign of
Alpha Team. Okay, what I decided to become white old day, I
could look after themselves. And also they are not really kind of involved in
this, right, Like, they have no reason to suspect Alpha Team.
They're probably safer sneaking off at a later time, are they not. Okay,
they came straight for me. When I left the Alpha Team Barracks,
I knew what was happening. I suspected something, right, We can anyone
know how to mark this thing in the seraph's sentences? After what I can
try Alpha teams kind of job. Yeah, uh oh, you want to
tie us into this Seriffs census. I want to hide us from the Seriffs
census. Otherwise we're going to get fucking nowhere. Or they turned the Seriffs
cannons on us. They sold truck. I can give that a goat,
give me a minute, and from my mech I'm assuming like I can connect
through the mechs text systems into the seraph That's what I'd like to try and
do. Sure, okay, yeah, you're going to try the systems to
try and hack. Oh this is a good point. I'm still maybe that's
not I was thinking of my hack I'll fix, which is as a pilot.
Yeah, okay, that's opposed. You're trying to frame. Basically,
you're trying to act what so from my from my mech just like as in
Heath sat in his mech like connect threw into the serifs systems to trying to
imagine the mechs probably have some way of doing that for data transferring things.
And I want to from there trying to hack into the seriff's sensor systems.
Okay, And I want to like I want to just ever so slightly miss
aligne everything or like flip like invert it so it shows we're going right when
actually we fucked off and we're going in completely the opposite direction. So it's
not doesn't cut it out, it just flips it backwards. Absolutely, try
and give me a hack or fix. All right. So I was about
to say, before you rolled it, I was going to make that a
risky role yep, just to clarify again, but because we haven't had very
many of them and I want to have the terminology correct. Okay, so
oh. A risky role has clear and obvious complications even on a success.
For example, if a pilot is trying to sneak into a heavily guarded facility,
the GM might decide the role is risky. Even if the pilot manages
to sneak in, they'd likely have limited time to sneak out. When rolling
a risky skill check, a character always suffers the consequences on any result under
twenty. Oh my god, the mum I will never roll better in mind
tire Heith had rolled a twenty one on that twenty one. So you do
it. I don't know how you get into the mindset where you do this,
but you do, Eith. I think you have this bit of inspiration
and I don't even know if you know where it came from. Yeah,
firmament ability just kind of poking out that a little bit, just like weird
little bits of like memories in his head from just hacking ship as a MUK
and doing slightly dodgy smuggling runs and all that just sort of stuff, just
like, I'm sure this will this will work. II Steve done before they
spook the footage. Yeah, like I can do that again. Maybe now
I think you think that you've got this at least this is this has got
you in the clear to the point where you don't know how long it's gonna
last. But you guys will probably be able to get somewhere safe. All
right, I fucked up there, senses. But if we're gonna go,
we need to go. Now, what should have enough time to in some
way say, but it looks like we're in the clear. Guards are approaching
the ship. Uh, it's true. I need a co pilot. Okay,
sure, no armed guards. Nine armed guards approaching the ship. I
raise my hand and I close my eyes, and I focus on being as
light as a feather. I try to force push all of these people like
a firmament title wave. Okay, so basically you reverse the gravity. Mm
hmm, all right, go ahead, approach So yeah, earlier firmament with
one difficulty. I do not have it in my sheet, but I will
perfect. I may have I knew it was gonna happen. I was like,
as soon as I do something, it's gonna ruin and the thrusters go
off. Like he starts to like summon up that like that weird force music
and stuff starts playing, and then all the thrusters on the back of the
ship. That's a natural one. All right. As soon as you try
and tap into the firmament, I just want to get for trying, you
pass out, Oh fucking fox, like I knew it did cool. You
pushed him. You pushed yourself way too hard. However, now you can
add the firmament to your trigger list. Sweet. Right next to you,
Gabriella, you can see uh Quanta kind of like raise his hand up and
look like he's about to try and do something, but he just kind of
like slumps and falls back onto the ramp of the ship. We'll have to
call it. The Doc's just gone down. He tried to do something.
I'm gonna bring him back inside, and you need to close the bay doors.
Yeah, I'm going I do that immediately. All right, What what
do I do? I've never done this before. As he comes up into
the uh the I sit him down and I like stand up and come over
to your chair and stuff, and I point at some of the things and
just I'll say something like, but that's like the same as your lnswer.
That one's going to get you there. That is pretty much what I've just
plugged in for the autopilot. There the difference here. If you need to
take it manually, you grip onto that and that's your angular velocity. Okay,
you understand that what that means. That means I'm going to turn you
upside down. That's your pitch, that's your your that's your role. All
right, press that one. Do not press that red button? Got it?
And then I turn around and head to my mac. Stu's absolutely terrified.
Here's this petrified look on his face. You head to your mac.
Yeah, okay, So Stu is in the cockpit of the shuttle. Yeah,
I want to say that I've plugged in like fucking autopilot stuff like I
did before. But so, okay, so there would be autopilot for landing
and take off, thank god, But like once you have to like set
a course and stuff like that. I don't know where we're going a toll
then, because it's on the hates GPS. Yeah, that's fine, it's
fine. I've said it to lift off and get us out of the bay.
Doors, and then I taught him how to fly in three words or
less. So el gato, the uh, you're you're probably getting your own
like warning that the that the the bay doors are starting to close on the
shuttle. So was I able to scoop him up and bring him in?
Yeah, okay, I'll make you do a role for that. However,
there are there are people that are outside pointing weapons at you and and the
dock and your mac. I'm yeah, I'm not gonna shoot at them,
but I am going to cradle Doc with my little creepy spider arms. So
yeah, so that I'm protecting him. My big mech is protecting him.
And then I scuttle back inside. I was kind of hanging half out of
the bay doors anyway, so I scuttle inside as quickly as I can.
Stormtrooper Aim, I have never rolled so badly with my orange dye. It
has never happened to me. Swear to God, I'm not making these rolls
up. But I rolled to two storm Stormtrooper Aim starts to fire off,
firing actual bullets. Yeah they are damn okay, absolutely, and the shuttle
takes off. How'd you go? You are in your mech. I would
like to act to bite my ex slipstream module and teleport back inside the bay,
the hangar bay. I'm sorry, okay, let's get a role please.
Oh pretty far? Thank god? Oh that was close. That was
close. Back into the hangar bay. You go, what do you do?
As soon as I land, there's like nine dudes firing at me.
I assume straight away. I just appear land. I have power knuckles.
I would like to hit the ground just to create some sort of tremor to
fuck up the ground. I don't want to kill them or anything. I
just want to completely fuck with them. Okay, let's see what do you
normally have to do for your power? Now? Is that a special weapon
or a system? It's an ORCS melee. I see it like one of
my mech's hands now has the fucking Nintendo power glove thing on it, and
it just and it sucks in some energy and then I can just hit the
ground. So I guess I'll roll it. Oh God, I'm gonna fucking
punch through the fucking Okay. Yeah. I think what happens is you you
you underestimate the damage that you can do here, and you just no idea
what these things can do. You kind of like punch a hole into the
floor and your fist kind of gets stuck into the ground. That's a little
like going off. Uh all right, I want to fucking shout at all
of the people outside of the mech Yeah, hold your fire, hold your
fire. I'm on your side. Hello, Go ahead and give me ah
some sort of deception if you have it. Nope, all right, give
me a f D twenty and I'd say cool too. Difficulty I don't think
so, not in this case. Five on the two difficulty thirteen you're still
firing away. Oh for fuck syke? Am I still stuck? Can I
fucking run? Give me a whole check? Why? What the fuck?
Uh? I'm sorry, I can't. I can't leave him behind. I
can't have more ship on my conscience. Just get the fuck out of here
instead, What if we know we can pilot, what are we gonna do
pilot? You can pilot? I don't say you can pilot a fucking truck.
Come on, Jesus, good luck, all right, Just get a
get to whatever the fuck that fucking thing is. Yeah, this is a
private calm with just just us, with not including white. We can't we
can't leave him there. We can't. We can't do that. If we
go back now, we're all fucked, every single one of us. How
the heck are we going to get him back? I don't know. I
don't think we are. I think I think we just have to go right.
I covered this census, but it's not gonna last long. We go
back, we're dead, all of us, including White Alpha Squad, and
let's basically anyone else I can committee decides they want to fuck with, we
have to go. God. I hope the firmament power that he has good
get him back. You think he can. There's got to be a way.
There has to be a way. There's got to be something we're not
thinking of. Why should we stand here for ten minutes and think about it,
because I don't think we all last that long. We should keep going.
Look, if it helps you feel any better, this is exactly what
new Wired or even old White would want to do. All right. I'm
fucking proud of the prick. He left me floating in space, and now
he's just jump back into the fucking frying pan. To say, people who
doesn't even really know it's his choice. If nothing else, he deserves for
us to fucking respect it. Can you at least hide us and keep us
nearby? Maybe he can blink back wack. Do what I have any idea
how long I think we've got? Is it minutes? Is it half an
hour? For what? Oh? For loss? The effective like firing range
on a ship depends on like the other ship, Like typically in in battles,
like big war type battles, when they come up with these, they
have incredibly like long range firing solutions, right, and they're basically like intercepted
by the equivalent of chaff and other things like electronic disruptions and whatnot. So
there's like different spheres of almost like relevancy, you know, like once you
get past like a certain point, then doesn't matter what kind of defensive systems
you have, then you can fire. You think that you can get out
of the immediate range of fire so that if you put in evasive maneuvers that
you would probably be able to dodge most of the attacks. Okay, okay,
we don't have low all right, We've got maybe minutes to get out
of the firing range or enough that we're going to be a hot fucking target.
We can waite but it's it's don't gonna be enough. How it puts
all of us at risk. Okay, well we have to try. We
can't just we can't just leave him. Rod will start the clock. But
if we die, what's fucking sacrifices for nothing? We won't. I start
my watch. Okay, So we are how far from the back of the
ship now, we're like, uh, several kilometers? Why we're hanging back?
Are you insane? You have maybe five minutes if that look, I'm
gonna find them and then we'll come find you. Right, if anyone's gonna
find it, it's gonna be me. You have five minutes, I will
mission we are. We're just gonna wait, wait until the last minute,
and then punch it. Come on, Why am I think Heath will be
doing like whatever you still can in any way to like extend this out the
time out as much as possible, fucking around with senses. I would also
like to try to help that a right, So we'll say that this is
a normal, flat, normal hack and fixed role for you, Heath,
because I was going to give you one difficulty, but if you're getting some
help, so you would have will just even it out. So just a
regular hacker Fix seventeen. All right, you're playing havoc with the internal alarms
on the on the Sarah. Basically you're sending communications kind of like all over
the place, and they're getting like redirected and stuff making like guards go the
wrong way, et cetera. It's a very long five minutes. Oh god.
I also check on the dock, by the way, I get it.
When I am done helping, I'll go make sure sit him up,
make sure he's okay. Fucking pulse. Yeah, he's got a pulse.
It's uh, I mean he passed out like he just looks like he is.
He tries to use his ability. Okay, Okay. I put the
plate of food that he had next to him for when he wakes up,
because I know he's going to be really hungry, and I just make sure
he's like buckled in strapped in somewhere and he's not gonna get destroyed if we
do take off quickly. Okay, I got your doc. I got you.
That sauce makes me gass. Yeah, well that's nut sauce for you,
I guess. Quiet no response? Fuck what kind of left on the
tiber? Seconds? There still no response? From whyat Steve, Yes,
let's go. What I gotta go? Still, we waited as long as
we could, all right, just before like ste hits the probably the big
red button. Why I said, don't push Ah, I can't. He
wants to like try to remember the coordinates or the space that he felt when
we were in the firmament and just transmit those, he thinks out to Wyatt's
mech and out to the frequency that he was given on the rag from Wyatt
before we fuck off into deep space. Good luck? Why in jumping into
the hangar bay, cold sensation falls over you, Wyatt in the morning cloak,
morning cloak, with basically people in hand. I have to walk both
of you. He has the Alpha squad in hand. Please tell me they're
alive. Blease, tell me they're alive. Rush by your hands, fucking
prick. Still, let's go, every check them out about let's go,
Christian, I was so wide about yeah, Jew put him down. Put
him down? Why so I can look at him I'm doing. I'm like
putting them down. There's probably one fucking they're probably like all strapped on the
Michael. Yeah, they're obviously like a bit confused. Your mech has like
all these like horrible like scrapes on the paint job. That's like, yeah,
there's all these like bullet like marks all over the thing. And uh
yeah, there's there's a lot of confusion going on. But off the shuttle
goes made me roll. I say, quick dies, yes I did.
That was the enemy as fuck. So Stu, you push the big red
button, Stu. She literally punches the button. Just don't point at it.
With buttons, it's so hard to see what knows. So you hit
the button, Stu, give me a flanty twenty Oh how good at my
pressing buttons? Oh? Thank god our rules today? What yeah, speak
for yourself. Sorry dog there you soaked up all the bad fuck you welcome.
So Stu hits the button and it's not the fuel dump button because that
is like it's like a big giant like lever that you have to pull on
the other side that I didn't even mention to him. Red button is just
like fucking boost. There's like a yeah, there's like a like a good
hot second where's like he made this right. There's a note there that says
I can't tell if that's don't pull it or pull it? Yeah, So
dude. So, yeah, you hit the big red button and I think,
I think what happens is there's like this music that starts blasting through the
ship. I said, I said, dun press that button. We made
this actually makes me uncomfortable in that song. Radio off it off button right
next to the red fat finger the button. It's perfect. Drop the bag.
I listened to him. I'd like to think that I'd hit one button
where the extinguishers on the inside just like go up for a split second.
Yeah, all right, so what's everybody doing? Yeah, no, my
mech and looking at the kind to the people. Yeah, they were like
unconscious. No, they they weren't wearing like any hard suits or anything.
You basically had to like grab them. They were apparently in a firefight of
their own. They were trying to get to their mechs in like the secondary
bay, and they ran into all the guards that you were supposed to run
into basically, and they they were like in a fight, so they weren't
able to get to any of the hard suits or anything. They're conscious,
They're all sort of like looking around like what the hell was that that?
Uh, how did you do that? On and Colt, I've never seen
it done with that kind of accuracy. Yeah, I'm pretty good at it.
Your brother would be proud. Yeah, yeah, he will be proud
when we go get him. Yeah. Are you look all right? Yeah?
Yeah, I look around the a squad and then are you all right?
All right? He's a pilot in the ship, so I probably need
to go up there as quickly as possible. Yeah, don't worry. I'll
print off heartsuits for these with my personal printer. I look to to a
surer and say, uh, I suppose you're in command, but we have
we I think we're heading to the We are we? Where we? Where
are we going? Where we headed? Just away from here? For now?
Away from here? Are any of your boys pilots? Yeah? So
I think she like looks around, Reaper just kind of like puts your fingers
up. Can you head up to the cockpit. It's just that I'm kind
of running on emptier and I really off my nut on stems, and I
probably shouldn't be piloting if someone else can do it. But yeah, absolutely
relieve she believe him of his position as fast as you can. Yeah,
I can get on it. He's probably gonna take a straight into the nearest
star. All right, I'll hurry then, and he just kind of like
starts the double time it Gabrielle actually in the the hanger baby bit yes,
and the dock yes, and everyone else yes. And Heath is somewhere else.
As far as I know, he was still in his mech and after
why it's landing back in He's Heith is going to basically climb out of his
mech and start heading up to the cockpit because he wants to do his beautiful
mind thing with the sat Now okay, joke, um hm hmm, sorry,
send this to peebe real quick. Oh, thank you, there you
go. I don't know if that's got everything, but I'll give me a
second. Here everything robot two three? Oh but no, okay already,
so, uh, Heath, you and Reaper head to the cockpit and you
can see Stu there, Stu, what does it look like in the cockpit
right now? Duo is like he's got like a little handkerchief with like his
name embroidered on it. He's just like he's still just an emotional mess.
But you've learned to dab the tears so that the little monogram is pointing outward.
Oh yeah, because when he does this takes for like cry takes.
He wants to make sure people know who he is. Yeah, and you
don't want to s much the makeup exactly. He'll have like his like he'll
he'll just like kind of like be sprawled out everywhere, like his elbow like
pecuriously on one of the dashboard like consoles. All right, so Reaper and
uh and you Heath head to the cockpit. Reaper U nods his head at
you stew and he says, mind if I take over? Yeah, yeah,
it's probably a good idea. You did a good job, buddy,
a great job. How cool. They aren't firing at us, by the
way, Oh I did a little naughty stuff. They think we're heading that
way, we're going that way. We've we've got to their defense on the
seraff I might have done just a little bit. Good job. That is
not easy. You said naughty stuff. I was like, when did you
find the time to do that? And now I know what you mean.
Yes, that's the only naughty stuff I do. I'm very wholesome me.
I would say that. Well, if you if you guys don't need me
up here, I head out. Maybe look around wouldn't happen to be any
any of you bring any uh hygiene products of any kind? You're just curious
or would there be anyone here curious? I think, heathill sniff. No,
but I remember now Stuyahbriella, Effie, whichever one it is today,
she said she'd print you some from a mech. She's got the whole thing.
Do you do you everything? Stu's out of the room. He's going
straight to Effie. Give me a So this is this is so weird.
Uh make me a flat D twenty roll. But you've got two accuracy on
the roll, Heath, Okay, so flat D twenty two accuracy? Yeah,
okay, here's the two accuracy and a flat D twenty Okay. So
you're totally making that ship up. But Stu is not. I mean's not
that hard to get him to believe something about his his uh uh glamour products.
It's it's a it's an easy cell. Okay. Yeah, you're so
excited. You've never liked he. He's like a get on Christmas. He's
so giddy. Yeah, take the elevator down to the friggin uh hangar bay,
I guess and uh reaper and uh, you, Heath are in the
cockpit right now. He says, you have a course that I can lay
in here. We have to get out of here. Yeah, just give
me a second, and I'll sort of just look at the you know,
the dash stop pulling up the star shots again, and I think, rather
than like try to use my fer moment skill again, I'm just trying to
recall what I saw when we were in the firm moment with Fie and just
do that sort of the same technique again, but just from memory, where
he just finds that place again in the star maps and and tries to then
plots it in. Okay, yeah, just give me a flat D twenty
then seven. There's a lot of stars, a lot of planets out there.
Maybe it was this way. Oh god, So I think you'll just
see him like doing nothing with the star charts, just like it was.
Yes, that's it, just left of those No wait, hang on was
it those scroll scrawl scroll Ah, that's it, those ones trying to navigate
around this like three D space of stars. Like yeah, if you've ever
played No Man's Sky and you're trying to like go to the different stars and
No Man's Sky and you're like flying down the stars and up there's a bajillion
of them. Oh, I'm gonna rederrect this. Uh So I think he'll
quickly realize that he can't fucking remember, he can't get close enough. Ah
So, although he's exhausted and hungry and he probably knows this isn't gonna be
a good idea, he's going to try and firmament it again and actually sense
that the the path. Okay, so this will be your third time using
the firmament today. Ah I had your role one difficulty before. I think
it'd be too difficulty. Okay, sorry, that's accuracy too difficulty. Oh
my god, there you go. Oh oh Webb be fucked. If it's
gonna sacrifice himself and be here right, it is taxing to do this.
You have to really concentrate, and you give yourself an immense headache in the
process, which feels extra weird for you because you haven't gotten any headaches since
this whole experiment thing began, even with all the crazy shit going on and
the insanity happening. But you're able to plot the location for the the the
hive like hexagonal thing that you had envisioned in your head. Ah fuck,
still inherent an armory territory in the purview here, So I don't think he's
kind of got it at this point, Like after he's closed his eyes and
sensed where to go, he's not even he doesn't open his eyes to look
and imagine this like map in three D space in front of him, like
holographic. He just points. So we're like a star cluster there. That's
where we need to go. There's no blink gate close to it, though,
Well then we just need to get as close as we fucking can.
All right, all right, I'll I'll plot for the nearest blink gate and
we'll travel through and head there. We might have to do something to get
through, though, and I can tell you the blink gate security is going
to be a lot heavier than trying to hack this SERIF systems. Well,
if it helps with the team we've got on board, flying by the seat
of our pence, someone else seems to have worked so far, one massive
fuck up at a time. Okay, as far as the back of the
ship, all right, I'm sorry, what were you gonna say? I
was just gonna say that I think he Well, we'll go to get up
and just find a place to lie down like he's fucking wiped. Yeah,
this is a shuttle, it's not it's not exactly meant for too many people
like you guys have crammed all of your mechs in into the back. Basically
they are the hangar is filled to the brim, like on this thing,
there is no room. And uh, I feel like there was definitely a
thing where the mechs were like loading on and they were like scraping the shit
out of everything because you just couldn't. You're not supposed to put five mechs,
one of which is a size two mech on here. And uh yeah
I think that cause he'll probably go to his mech just to crash out in
it. Okay. Yeah, they might have some like really simple bunks,
you know, like the tour bus kind of bunks that are just kind of
built into the wall. They just have like a little alcove. It looks
like one of those Japanese what did they call them, the pod hotels hotels.
Yeah, it's like one of those minimum space Yeah, I mean,
assuming that one of those is closer than my mech'll he'll flop in one of
those. Okay, what about in the rest of the ship. Doctor Zephyr
is unconscious. I think I was specifically trying to corner Gabriella the secret corner
of the room somewhere. Oh well, my first priority was making sure that
everybody was okay and starting printing, you know, hardsuits for them with my
personal printer or I guess the only printers that are on the ship would be
like food and medi bay printers. So there's you have your personal printer in
that. Oh great, oh okay, okay, then so then yeah,
I start printing hard suits for everybody and just to make sure everybody's safe.
And it's like it's like a it's almost like wearing like a full server computer,
like on your back for the printer. Okay, well, I would
probably set it up up somewhere. Then it's like a it's like a server
computer plus a vacuum, you know, kind of like okay, yeah,
okay, So then I probably strapped that on and I, uh, look
at whyt who's trying to approach me? Flowing you around? Can you help
me with this? Grab an I gesture towards the dock. Just grab the
dock and try to find some quarters or something. Just grab the dog.
Yeah, I mean not that big, like like try and lift him up.
I'm hoowing. Okay, you're stronger than you think. Yeah, okay,
you got him? You want to no, yeah, go ah.
We're gonna try to find some quarters or something for him to lay down.
And that's where I just start like walking off. Yeah this is pretty heavy
wyatt. Right, Yeah, this is heavy too, but I got quarters,
right, yeah, follow her down the thing. Yeah, there's there's
not a lot here. I mean there's the hangar and then there's some like
super basic bunks. There's not even enough for everybody. Is like a baby
shuttle. No even I mean you guys managed to fit five mechs on here.
Okay. I'm just trying to think visually, like is it kind of
is it like the rossanante from or is it something smaller? What that is?
Okay? How dare you? How dare you? It's not like one
of those little ones in ballast. Oh? Definitely smaller than the Firefly Okay,
yeah, then the Serenity by the way, nice right, so often,
not knowing what the rest of that name is, he's going to try
and pull that one a good one. I want to put him in a
bunk, then, I guess, and then I will probably set the My
brain just completely drew a blank. What's it called against the printer? I'll
put the printer down and like set it up and then start printing hard suits
for everybody I don't know. Yeah, yeah, yeah, you're you're my
fie. What your the other one? Do you know? What? You
know? You can? You know? There's another one of you? Right,
that's not another Well, yeah, he's in here, but right which
one of you controls the horrible place that you brought us too? Well,
it's her place. I'm better at controlling it than she is right now.
Anyway, why do you ask? Can you take me there? I guess
so now yeah, okay, uh, and yeah, I will try to
do that. I don't pretty annoyed with Wyatt right now, but yeah,
I will try to do that for him. Okay, I'm sorry say that
again. I'm going to try to take him to the into them, into
the fe safe space. Yeah, into the firmament. Yes, okay,
I think this is the third time that you've sec since we slept. Yeah,
too difficulty, okay, okay, you feel that cold water sensation again
and everything goes silent. What's in the armament? Where do you take Wyatt?
Well? He was I'm not sure what he wanted, if he wanted
to talk to Effie or if you just wanted to come to this space.
So right now, I think everything's dark except for maybe a spotlight. Where
we are? Where did you want to go? Yeah? I think uh
New? Uh leave us me new leave? Or do you have to stay?
Yeah? I mean I'm here, but I can walk away. Are
you to Effie? No, I need you to do something else? Can
you bring someone else here? I'm maybe who do you want me to bring
here? Wyatt? You mean you? Mm hmm. He's gonna be pretty
fucking hard to drag in, are you sure? Yeah? I guess I
can try, and I'd like to try to do that for him, y
the way I guess I've done for you know, me and Effie existing in
the same place. I'll try really hard. Yikes. So I don't want
you to make a roll. Okay, I want to a roll from Wyatt.
This will be a flat D twenty Okay, Holy shit, it's not
an easy experience. Effie. Gabriella Afriella, how do you think you do
that? God? That's difficult. Do you look at Wyatt? Yeah?
Probably, I think I walk up to Wyatt and I look him in the
eyes, and I kind of search his face, and then I probably see
a little Wyat, Like the white in front of me fades away and I
see a little tiny Wyat huddling in a corner, like a child, a
smaller adult Wyat or a child child child Wyat, Wyatt? Yeah, what's
going on? Are you okay? No? What are you doing over there?
Biden from what? Everyone? Nothing can hurt you here? Really?
Yeah, this is my space. I want to see. No, I
take a couple of steps towards him. I think you would shy away from
you. Do you know who I am? Whyat? No? My name
is Gabriella, and I'm helping a friend of yours. Yeah, who her
name's Effie? Do you know who that is? I think each straight up
recoils from you, pulls back and hides again. I'm got any friends,
none at all? No? What about Alisa? Recoils father? Somebody that
wants to talk to you? Who his name is? Wyatt? Also,
he's you from a different time, like an an anime? Yeah, just
like okay, hold out and you uh and then I reach out and I
take his hand and then I disappear. And why it will be standing in
front of himself not a child, I don't think. And that's where we're
going to end the session today. Well okay, okay, never gonna better.
I'm going up the courage to do this next week. It's the title
of this episode, by the way, what like an an anime? Yeah?
Yeah, I was like, how do I get him to come out?
And I figured that would be the trump card, but I hoped I
didn't have to use it. It worked out. That was insane. That
was insane. What a session, guys, Yeah, holy shit? What
the hell? Hell? Like? I took a lot of the fucking it
was. It was amazing. It was amazing. It was amazing today.
It went by so quickly. The session went by so fast for me.
I was so into what was happening. It's like watching good TV had like
one of the most anime moments. Yeah, but can we also can we
also talk about how cathartic that was or just how beautiful that moment was,
because why it didn't get a chance to save everybody last time, and this
time he did and that was magical. That was perfect. That was anime
as fuck and I that's my favorite moment in the fucking show so far.
I totally thought you were gonna leave us behind you. Fuck her Ah,
I will put Heath is going to why it's so much ship? Look see
if you stick around, you can save people, can't you. Yeah no,
we'll leave you floating in space on a grappling like whatever. This is
like one of the I know I'm in this show, but the whole the
whole sequence, I was like this, Oh my god, come on roll
well, just like I felt like a viewer. It was so it was
weird. I loved it. It's the entire thing, nervous, it's the
entire thing. I've just been sitting here like just another day for you.
GM goal accomplished the anxiety of horror. Yeah that was really good, guys.
That was really good. And I'm really not shitting you, Like I
rolled catastrophically bad. I didn't roll any ones though, but they were all
horrible. Like I don't think. I don't think I got above a five
on any of the rules that I did. Uh for pursuit, I rolled
like five times or six times. I think for for all that I'm like,
okay, each little thing, I'm like in my head, I'm like,
okay, each little thing that happens, I'm gonna roll and see if
there's guards that come. No, but I'm like okay, but now that
fucks over the Alpha team because they yeah, I would feel like they got
the penalty because so yeah, that was that was amazing, so amazing roll
situations and the stars aligned. That was crazy good. It's a good job.
Hey listen. Peachee is usually the sacrificial lamb when it comes to rolling.
Peachey absorbs all of the bad luck when he rolls, and as soon
as as soon as I have to roll something, it's gonna I'm gonna break
the streak and I got the one one. But yeah, Peache's usually the
bad luck roll sponge. Uh so you you you've you've been assigned that position.
Congratulation. I think he said that his internet went out during that time,
so he wasn't even around to absorb the role sponge. It's still his
fault. Yeah, has been transferred to somebody. Uh, yes, it
was when you rolled the one Kai So good session. Let's go around the
room. Let's do some shout outs to wrap everything up. Heb, would
you be so kind as to start us off? Please? Absolutely. Hi.

I'm currently mashing my way through a mix of The Witch of three and
The Dark Souls one to three run through, which I'm just I'm loving so
much games just a few yeah, Like I meant to stream Dark Sons for
a few hours and then seven hours later I was like, I don't want
to stop because it's I love that game so much, but yeah, blood
Born by chance, I will, but only because I've now learned how to
parry in Dark Soul one, which I never did in three hundred hours of
my first play through of it. But I can parry now because Chap bullied
me until I did it. So yeah, come over and say hello,
watch me die a lot. I'll be on tomorrow doing some more Witcher three
and yeah, thank you Jay Feist. Hey guys, I'm fist to the
Waris. It gives me over a Twitch and Twitter at Fists to the Walris
And lately I've been playing a lot of GTA roleplay. I have a character
named Billy West. He's a Cajun manchild who finds himself in the city of
Los Santos and usually nothing goes his way. He's trying his handed being a
janitor for the police station, although he hasn't actually put an application in,
and it's been a lot of fun seeing where it's where it's gone. It
hasn't gone well, but yeah, always if you want to check that out,
you like role play, That's usually what I'm doing over at the channel.
Thank you, Bunny Brad. Hello everyone, it's me, the one
that fucking derailed another whole thing. I think I have a special a special
ability to do that. Yeah, here's the reasoning. I'm going to give
you the reasoning. My little character motivation going into this week was that this
was new Wyatt with five percent of old Wyatt leaning through, and by the
end, I'd say about ten percent, which is why I was making some
more like crazy, I'm going to fucking try and teleport. I'm going to
fucking go back. And also that bleed means that I can't fucking leave people
behind it like point not one percent more guilt on any Wyatt's conscience. It's
just not something I'm able to even fucking roll like he won't be able to
function. So I was like, he will have a fucking stud take the
fucking controls. I've fucking got a teleport pack. I was just sitting there
as well, like, ah, I've got to do it. Like I'm
sitting here, Brad going, I have to have whyat fucking jump into the
morning cloak and teleport it. He can't just fucking leave. And I know
that technically they probably wouldn't like necessarily kill them, but he couldn't run that
race. So I had to have him do it, and uh, it
worked out luckily, but I was I was willing to see where that went
at that point horrible. I feel like I need to go and lay down,
face down until tomorrow when I will be streaming Battle Gear in the morning
and then sweeker, then two because PB's forcing me to Me and PB are
now on a strict schedule. We basically run to the same channel at this
point where we one tang we're doing a tag team thing because I'm trying to
watch her playthrough of games. She's trying to watch my playthrough of games.
So I'm going to play Metal Gear, She's going to play Krona Across and
I'm going to play Sweaker in Sea. It's like one of my favorite stories
of all times, so I feel like a good story. Please come join
me and watch Brad play this game. I'm doing like late streams, so
it starts at five Eastern, but it starts at and then it starts at
five other the other eastern Eastern European it starts at five Eastern because I'm just
doing I'm doing some evening streams. Huh, what's the game called sweak it
in? Does that have anyowels in it? I have no idea what it
means. Definitely, what is it a romanized Japanese word. I don't even
want to look up what it means. It's a spoiler. We're just going
to play. We're just gonna Yeah. I haven't licked into it at all,
so it's a It's a j RPG, and I love them. So
I'm going to play one tomorrow night, so you're then by see you next
week when I have to do this thing now, probably at the beginning,
horrible. I'm not going to about a cold open with that. Yeah,
