Aaron is not joining us tonight. He had some real
world stuff to do. I don't know what it is,
but I'm still gonna talk shit about him for not
being here. So I don't care what the excuse is
at this point because it's never a good excuse, so
I don't I don't care if the Pope called you
up to talk to you. You got fucking ship to
do and that's.
Speaker 1: Called gaming, so put his ass on hold.
Speaker 2: Anyway, with that being said, we will switch.
Speaker 1: We'll switch it over to uh, Sean, how are you?
What's going on?
Speaker 3: Well, Chris, you know, life's just going and I'm playing
Franklin Nichols Vault, the Homeless Electrical Mage. There we go, boom,
nice and quick nice.
Speaker 2: I do have to talk a slight shit about Sean
because he didn't show up to play today because he
had quote unquote car trouble. Because we've heard that fucking
excuse before from other us. Never heard that excuse from me,
not from you, But we have had it for other
other people in the group.
Speaker 4: So creative.
Speaker 2: Yeah, like I was shot, you know, come give me
a real reason, you know, fucking.
Speaker 4: Robbed by a game of p BRO.
Speaker 3: I'm not paying thirty dollars to get Uber to Titan games.
Speaker 1: That just shows how dedicated you are.
Speaker 2: Anyway, I'll do it next time I got money.
Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, all right.
Speaker 2: Also, another person will be talking about tonight's scar. How
are you You don't operate? Yeah?
Speaker 1: Yeah, I got my camera on but not my microphone.
Speaker 5: So yeah, it's funny. I was talking to a listener,
a new listener to the podcast, and.
Speaker 3: He was like, boy, I think it was episode three.
Speaker 5: He's like, boy, man, Chris sure sounded awfully angry at
scar because he didn't show up to that game.
Speaker 6: And I'm like, nah, he's just's hilarious.
Speaker 1: Oh that's awesome.
Speaker 2: Yeah, if people don't doubt it, they'd probably think of
a cranky.
Speaker 4: Filled in was He's horrified. Like the whole time, he's like,
is it okay? Is this gonna be okay? Dude, sweat it,
don't sweat it.
Speaker 2: So I'm good.
Speaker 3: I'm I'm I'm.
Speaker 5: Surprised that I'm glad there's so many other bad things
happening that Chris is so distracted by those that he
hasn't bitched about me changing my icon in World twenty yet.
Speaker 3: And it's been like, like ten minutes.
Speaker 2: I haven't done it. That's because I'm busy staring at
your Michael Myers mask in the background.
Speaker 4: That's just an unpainted William Shatner. Okay, it's not.
Speaker 3: Like it's it's it's more or less true.
Speaker 7: It's more less true.
Speaker 3: But I'm playing Mantis, our forearmed, sword.
Speaker 8: Wilding, bow wielding uh guy who has bad ADHD And yeah, okay, I.
Speaker 4: Think that's a prerequisite to play tabletop games.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Adam, who are you?
Speaker 3: So? It's me?
Speaker 4: I'm Adam.
Speaker 3: Hello.
Speaker 4: I am the game master for this motley crew. I
will be playing everybody that's not these guys specifically tonight.
I believe it's gonna be a whole bunch of dudes
that experienced some weird shit for the first time from
what I understand. But let's see. What have I been
up to? Man? I volunteered for a bunch of projects,
too many projects. I'm currently a little overwhelmed with Shadow
Run related stuff. It's all very exciting and very fun
and I'm thrilled to be doing it. But unfortunately, on
top of it, I have to go to like my
job where I work in a sawdust factory. But other
than that, you know, it's it's great, it's exciting. I
got a secret project that I'm not allowed to talk about,
and another secret project I'm not allowed to talk about.
And check this out, a third secret project that I'm
not allowed to talk about.
Speaker 6: That's no, no, it's it's it's it's two NDAs and
one solemn vow of secrecy.
Speaker 4: Okay, so yeah, what one? That solemn vow of secrecy. Uh,
I'm looking forward to it. Man, it's exciting, excited that one.
Speaker 2: But I was I was gonna say, you know what,
you haven't been doing gm this fucking game.
Speaker 4: Yo. You're right, you're right.
Speaker 9: We got everybody everything.
Speaker 4: Fine, I you know, I heard it. I had I
had the luxury last weekend. My wife was unavailable. She
had to celebrate her mother's I guess twenty ninth birthday
for a certain number of times. Uh and uh uh yeah, yeah,
I see that eyebrow. Yeah, she's uh an undisclosed age.
So my wife was unavailable for the whole weekend. I
had solo dad duty Friday through Monday. I took the
day off of work and it, dude, I had a blast.
My daughter is hilarious and weird and silly, but man,
I could use a little bit of sleep, let me
tell you. But yeah, yeah, Other than that, let's see
what else have I been up to. That's about it.
I've been talking to a bunch of other Shatter Run
podcast people. All of them are awesome. I am very
excited about a bunch of things that are in the
pipes for the future. You had mentioned something about expanding
with expanding the channel with you know, maybe an additional
show or two or.
Speaker 2: Three or three or four.
Speaker 4: Ye, there's a lot of stuff in the in the works.
It's very exciting, very exciting. Fine.
Speaker 2: I won't talk shit too much about Adam because he
has been doing a lot of busy work behind the
scenes that I just do not have the time or
energy for. So thank you.
Speaker 4: I don't have the time either. I got the energy,
Oh baby, do I got the time? No?
Speaker 3: No, I want to carnass that energy you got at them.
Speaker 4: I wish I could use it for good instead of
just just just chaos. It's all chaos. I ran, I
ran a play test for a thing that I'm gonna
be doing for gen Con. I ran that last night.
That was a blast. I got to play with some
cool people and they all died, all of them at
the end. So that was cool. Uh, success as a
smashing success. And those guys, uh, they a lot of
them listen to the show, and they probably won't listen
to this for I don't know, a couple, a couple
of a couple of weeks at least a couple of
two treat a couple two treat. Yeah, so you use
guys that got to play in that. Guess what, it's
part of the show. You'll find out about that, and
I don't know, probably about a year.
Speaker 1: But hey, hey, I did something similar last week.
Speaker 2: I ran the game that I'm gonna run at a
Depticon for Wrath and Glory ustly because mostly because you
weren't here to run your game.
Speaker 9: But anyway, anyway, I don't Since we don't have Aaron here,
we have the luxury of having a guest who's been
on the show.
Speaker 4: Before, an honor and a privilege, a delicacy, delicacy, I
think you know, it's what's the I think the word
I'm looking for it's, uh, what do they what do
they call this? A I don't know something in French.
There's a French word for it, and I don't know
what it is.
Speaker 3: I don't speak French.
Speaker 4: Delicate what you just delicate? I think maybe from.
Speaker 2: Anyway, all the way France.
Speaker 1: Should have surrendered.
Speaker 4: All the way from one one war. One war that
happened in one war, and then that's all they ever get.
Speaker 3: Primary ally is when we you know, pulled out from
the Great British.
Speaker 6: You know how many times Italy bent over backwards, like
just just bent over for so many.
Speaker 1: Armies and they don't get any ship for it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, but they created some good food.
Speaker 10: So right, right to be fat the French well put
the front dragon, right, I could get away with this.
Speaker 7: One of my plans is Parisians.
Speaker 2: By all means, by all means, we encourage that here anyway, uhurage,
all the way, all the way from from Scotland. It's
what two a m right now for you?
Speaker 7: Something like that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, So this will be the only person tonight I
don't talk shit about because not only is he actually
here on time, but he's the on the other side
of the goddamn planet. Uh so, welcome back, ivar Ridian
whatever we should call you tonight over from the What
You Killed Pride and Prejudice podcast.
Speaker 11: Correct, that's Against Prejudice, Yeadice. Pride and Prejudice is podcast.
Speaker 7: Not shadow Run one. But imagine there's fucking lads for
the other for that book.
Speaker 11: But yeah, I'm the poor idiot that runs the Pride
Against Prejudice shadow Run podcast. We are just about to
drop I think episode twenty this for me from my
point of view right now Tuesday from when this comes out,
it'll probably be like, I don't know, twenty two, twenty
four something like that.
Speaker 2: He is going to be taking control of Aaron's character
for tonight. So he was here to play Mantis a
few weeks ago and he is back, and uh yeah,
I think we can dive in now, so Anam if
you want to take it away.
Speaker 4: Okay, So, last time we left off, you guys had
hung out with your best friend ever, mister Johnson. He
was wearing a bath rob he exposed himself to you
a little bit while explaining what was going on, and
in the intervening time, oh yeah, great time. So in
the past two weeks. You guys have been scheming behind
my back. Not tell me what's going on with how
you're going to deal getting into Gorti's al Chemical currently
owned by Aris Macro Technology and Retrieve Extract. I guess
Howard Murr, a very important scientist type guy that happens
to be married to Sarah Murr. The mage extraordinary that
you have, I don't know, kidnapped, captured, you're in possession of,
as well as her daughter who is in a blue
plastic barrel and her son who is playing Xbox in
some sort of meat locker.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Basically yeah, I don't care fully accurate.
Speaker 4: Yes, okay, cool. You guys had a timeline. You got
like a deadline, and I do mean dead of eleven
hours to get all this stuff done. You have access
to mister Johnson's super rad connection to get gear. You
guys had put together a shopping list to gear. We're
not going to go into detail of what that stuff is,
but I looked at over real quick, and it looks
like all that stuff fits into the criteria I gave you.
You guys contacted A Decker, one of Jimmy's guys. Dude
by the name A Turbo Laser. He's someone that you
guys had the option of talking to you early on,
and you decided not to talk to him. You decided
to talk to doctor Doom instead, and that man, how
did that turnout?
Speaker 2: Uh? So?
Speaker 4: Right, So you guys contacted this dude Turbo Laser, and
while we were offline, we did a little bit a
dig it. So I made some dice rolls and you
guys dug into some information that he was able to
acquire for I'm scrolling up through our chat log here
to find it so I can give.
Speaker 1: It's pinned in the pin messages.
Speaker 2: The other that's the other one.
Speaker 9: I'm sorry, it's in a different one.
Speaker 4: Oh your secret messages Okay, the ones that you guys
didn't let me see.
Speaker 11: You know.
Speaker 4: I got this thing where it's like, if you guys
make a plan, I'm not gonna come up with a
counter plan. But like, if you guys make a plan,
what I can do is prepare for it so I
know how the rules work. But instead I'm going in blind,
so buckle up. It's gonna be a bumpy fucking ride.
Speak of it.
Speaker 6: It was more like we wanted to like it was
out of goodness, like we wanted to like like wow,
like yeah, it was it was malicious.
Speaker 4: Yeah dude, Yeah, thank you for holding my hand through
this really and I appreciate it.
Speaker 2: Also.
Speaker 4: I hope you know all the rules that these guys
are gonna wing at me, because I sure is fucked out.
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah dude.
Speaker 4: But hey, hey again, thank you so much for being here. Man.
It's uh, it's awesome. It's not or and like, oh yeah, dude, anytime, anytime, absolutely,
and thank you for sacrificing your sleep and your sanity
to be here. And uh, let's see you think you guys,
dug in you got a bunch of Yeah, there's some
of it. There's some of it, you know. It's it's
in there somewhere, just dig deep. There's a little bit left.
Speaker 2: Tell you. Because I'm such a good guy, I will
copy and paste it for you. All right, all right,
I remember, Okay, here it.
Speaker 1: Is Gorilla's sentient.
Speaker 6: Gorillas may or may not be involved.
Speaker 4: Yeah alright, man, I see, all right, I'm not I'm
not prepared for that.
Speaker 2: But okay, all right, this is the main stuff that
we had asked about for the we got from uh
her vote.
Speaker 4: Okay, So by the way, you guys contact turbo laser,
and this dude, like every when you're communicating with him,
it's not super quick. You don't get the dot dot
dot and then stuff that's riddled with slang like you
did when you're dealing with doctor Doom. This guy, it
just like as he's sending stuff, it's just he takes
the time to manually every other letter is capitalized, so
that's going on, and he does that by hand. So
it's slow as shit when he's responding to you because
he wants to be cool. But let's see, we got
analyzing Gortizel Chemical, you found a he was able to
get you guys map the floor plan after the renovations
of the third floor. We got gribbled track down locations
the rooms that have been assigned to Howard Murr, where
his lab is and where his dormitory is on the
third level. You were able to find his parking space
on the ground floor. Uh so, the way that the
ground floor works, and I'm gonna I'm gonna assume you
guys took a little bit of scouting time to kind
of get a look at this somehow, I'm not sure how,
but the ground level underneath the actual like operational floors
is parking. There's also a small like guard building in
there on the ground level and uh like a like
a utilities kind of thing there. But you were able
to track down his parking space, his lab number, and
his dormitory on the third floor. You got a bunch
of information about how the guards work here, mixed between
contacting doctor or not doctor doing pardon me rest in
peace but a rest and piss depending on your perspective.
But anyhow, turbo laser and a little bit of talk
with Watsie. You guys got some deats about the way
the guards work here. So there's three rotating shifts that
overlap with each other of night Errant Security. Because this
is now owned by Aris, it is not hardcore and
it is not Egle Security anymore. It's just straight up
night Errant. You know that there are at all times
two magicians on the security detail, which uh there's no
no real detail yet in lore about really the way
that knight Errant is uh set up and like how
their their operations work. Uh. That's very exciting. That's that's
one of the books that's gonna be coming out very soon.
It's called I think Tarnished Star is what it's gonna
be called. It's gonna go into like massive detail of
security companies. It's coming out very soon and I'm very books. No, no,
it's a sixth edition book, but it's it's still you know,
it's a lot of a lot of fluff in there,
so you can use it for whatever version you got.
And uh, it's the first the first book I listened to.
I listened to an interview with the current line developer
of Shadow Run. It's uh r j R. J. Thomas.
He Uh, it's his first, like the first project that's
one hundred percent under his like purview. It's uh, it's
all like about security companies, and it's a book that
I've I've been wishing existed for years and I'm so
pumped they're making it. There hasn't been like a full
on security source book since the Loan starbook for I
think second edition Shadow Run it came out like yes,
second edition like like decades ago, and they're finally doing
a new thing with it. And like this dude's got
like a background in like law enforcement stuff and security work,
so like it's, uh, he's gonna be like the best
dude to be in charge of this book. And I
am fucking pumped for this book. So thanks for making
it and I look forward to, you know, auditioning out
my sawdust factory money to buy it. Uh, I've got
I'm looking or to it. Oh yeah, dude, oh yeah,
I mean that's that's a resource that any Shadow Run
player should have, but or well any shadow Run GM
should have. But anyhow, so I made up some bullshit
about how knight Errant works and because of the way
the rights work and who owns what the magicians that
work for for knight Errant, I'm calling them mage Nights
because you know whiz kids. So mage nights. Yeah yeah, yeah,
oh yeah. So anyhow, two mage nights. That's a long
wait for me to get to the back to the
initial point of two Mage nights. At all times, these
guys running security, they're magicians. You are aware through talking
to Watsie that these guys tend to favor uh non
area affect spells due to wanting to prevent damage to
the facility, a lot of man of spells, a lot
of more defensive and detection type stuff. You know that
they keep bargests a security so these are like awakened mastiffs.
They've got powers where they can like h terrify you
or paralyze you with their bark and howl. So pretty
similar to what you guys dealt with with the the banshee.
And uh, let's see what else did you guys dig into.
Oh yeah, you guys looked into the way that their
their h fact worked for some reason. I don't know why,
but you got some geets about that, and you understand that, uh,
that kind of stuff is handled through the security room
that's on the ground level. Does that sound about right?
Speaker 2: I think?
Speaker 7: So?
Speaker 4: Okay, So you guys order all this equipment. You you
come up with a list. You guys brainstorm, you huddle up,
and you guys are in this this uh weird meat
I keep wanting to say, fact, this meat factory. I
don't know, but the place that maggot Mike had normally
hung out in and uh, you know, he's gone. He's
he's out doing his business, which you guys don't want
to think about. It's probably pretty nasty, but he's out
there doing his thing. So you guys set up and
you came up with a plan. You guys wrote up
a shopping list, and uh, we're gonna we're gonna kind
of you know, montage through you guys going through and like, uh,
you got knuckles. He's got like a like a like
a stylist to write onto his calm link and he
like licks the tip of it and he's making notes
as he goes, as you guys are coming up with stuff,
and like there's like a montage of you guys trying
on silly hats and whatever. But you know, he you
get this this list to mister Johnson. He's sitting there
on that couch. He's got his mug of soy caf
and he's wearing that uh that terry cloth freight train
bathrobe and he looks it over and you know he gets.
He gives you the nod, and you guys all do
like a like a team high five, and uh yeah exactly,
and uh, you know it's uh and then and then
it cuts to you guys, you know, whatever you're doing.
Fifteen minutes, you guys are playing like ping pong or something,
and then like a delivery comes through and it's like
this dude, he's got like a shaved head and he's
got like this big pointed beard. He looks like the
dude from Anthrax, and you know, he like slides open
the side of a black door and then he starts
like he's just like throwing like bag after bag after
bag of stuff to you guys, and you're doing like
a like a bucket line where like, you know, he
throws it to Ford, Ford tosses it to Mantis, Mantis
tosses it to Volt. Volt drops one and then you know,
you guys all have a little laugh and then like
you know, Mantis gets hit in the face with a
bag and whatever. And eventually you guys get all the
gear and you're going through and there's a montage of
you guys trying on this this armor that I think
all of you guys bought armor. So you guys are
going through the armor and like laughing is you're like, oh,
this one's clearly for the big dude, ha ha. And
then somebody's like, oh, look at my giant ass, and
like it's a silly time. But you guys gear up
and like you know, there's a scene of welding things
onto a motorcycle and like, you know, a close up
as you're cinching belts on stuff and loading up up
like cartridge into like belt cartridge, cartridge cartridge grenade strap on,
like uh, you know, tying the boot and then the
fucking the the the battle paint under the eye and
all that stuff, and uh, you guys are geared up
and ready to go, and I don't know what happens
from here.
Speaker 6: And Mike Kevlar have like nipples on the breastplate area,
like yeah, yeah, I mean, I'm talking about montages, And
immediately the the Batman movie montages came into the mind.
So I need nipples on my kevlar, you know.
Speaker 4: What making Edge? No, I'm kidding. Yeah, fine, fine, we'll
let it ride. Yeah, you got nips.
Speaker 2: So the first thing that comes to your mind when
we say montages nipples?
Speaker 3: I mean, is that not the same for you?
Speaker 6: I mean I feel like that's perfectly normal.
Speaker 4: Okay, it's only weird if you make it weird. Let's
get weird.
Speaker 3: Whatever.
Speaker 9: Right.
Speaker 2: Well, I wasn't going to start to pre edge.
Speaker 3: I escape two hours. Okay, Oh my god, there's so
I started late, but I was I was going the
whole time.
Speaker 4: Oh my god, Oh my god. So cadless right, yeah,
CADLSS just launched their official discord as of as of
the time of recording, they launched this thing. I want
to say, it was like yesterday or the day before,
and I posted thinking there about the show and like yeah,
and then like Scott schlet's the man, the myth, the legend.
He's one of the If you guys don't know the name,
like just go ahead and google it and then put
shatter run in there and you'll you'll see who it is.
But he's like, oh, yeah, I've been pre edging waiting
for this. I'm like, I can't escape it. It's everywhere.
Speaker 3: That's great.
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, yeah, Scott, Hey, thanks for by day.
Speaker 7: Literally I caught the clab.
Speaker 2: You should be. It's a horrible, horrible existence. Not gonna lie.
Al Right, Okay, well, how much time do we have
before it's it's go time? How much I need?
Speaker 6: I need the items, I need the actual items in
my inventory, and I need.
Speaker 3: The cost.
Speaker 4: It's been it's been two weeks.
Speaker 2: You didn't you had two weeks to figure that ship out? Okay?
Speaker 6: So, and no one answered my question when I asked
in our credit what was your question?
Speaker 1: How much it is? What I listed all over the
fucking place dude.
Speaker 3: Yeah, lies, Yeah, it's eight grand for the lights. For
the security armor, it's five grand. Right shields on thousand Scott.
Speaker 2: If you if you scroll, you're going too fast, Scott,
scroll to that in the pay data chat, scroll up
to February twenty first scroll.
Speaker 3: I just put it there again. It's okay, Oh.
Speaker 4: My god, this okay? Yeah, so this is all in
your Oh my god, look at that armor.
Speaker 3: Holy shit, you also need a gas mask.
Speaker 2: That armor is really expensive, considering it's only three more
than the armor.
Speaker 4: I already had, which was just yeah, but it's like
but that's huge.
Speaker 3: But you can put like different modifications on it, like
chemical feel, which I put on mine.
Speaker 2: Oh no, we don't have time for that.
Speaker 3: We definitely have time for that. We had too.
Speaker 2: I don't. I don't have time.
Speaker 7: Oh you double those will be here ald night.
Speaker 2: Actually it actually came up in our our last mission
because I had I put the fire like the that's right,
the fucking house was on fire, everybody.
Speaker 4: I just listened to that episode and I'm like, I'm like,
your pits are dry, but your neck is drenched. Dude,
Like I that last episode, Like that's I think it's
number fifteen. Like dude, I listened to that and I
was at work listening to it, and like, man, there
were a bunch of times where I was I was
laughing out loud, like an idiot at work, just walking
through it, and I'm like, PEO were like, what's wrong
with you? I'm like, I'm hilarious, and like what are
you talking about? I'm like, fuck you, fuck you. Let
me live my life. Oh do you do?
Speaker 2: You mean any other costs?
Speaker 6: Scar pretty h just the arrowheads, but I'm I'm getting
that information right now.
Speaker 2: Actually, I was gonna say that one you're on your
own for.
Speaker 3: Yeah, like what what what are the arrowheads that you
want to do? Like which ones are they?
Speaker 4: Well?
Speaker 6: I need I'm gonna re up on my explosive and scendiary,
but I was gonna do the sticking shock.
Speaker 3: Those are twenty like twenty five million.
Speaker 6: And I to get the shaft as well, which is
rating time twenty.
Speaker 3: So I need I need right now.
Speaker 7: I need the shaft.
Speaker 2: I needed it more than anything.
Speaker 4: Oh man, I can't I can't imagine what an arrow
slash taser. Yeah I imagine like whatever, yeah, but like
but in order to fire it from an air from
a bow and like get somebody with it, Like, how
does it not just like go into them? But I
don't know, it's it's it's you know what. It's an
action movie. So yeah, absolutely, taser prongs.
Speaker 7: You know, birding blunt.
Speaker 11: They're quite big and chunky, so it actually stops it
going in.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't.
Speaker 6: I'm pretty sure it still goes into them, but probably.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 6: Yeah, so in case they don't die, you know, from
the the arrow, then the execution maybe will finish the job.
Speaker 3: Yeah, but I'm a pacifist, so that will never happen.
I'm a passive my incendiary explosive arrows.
Speaker 4: Oh hey, while you guys are while you guys are
pumping stuff in uh, sean, do you want to read
another one of your.
Speaker 1: Oh I forgot about that?

Speaker 5: Really, just did mine and then that's all job done.
Speaker 3: That's all we needed.
Speaker 4: Man. Yeah, it's.
Speaker 2: All right, and I think I don't Yeah, here they are.
Speaker 1: Who did you read? You read?
Speaker 2: Manthis's yeah, He's just that. So so listeners, Yeah, we
meant to do this. I meant to mention this earlier.
So I'm glad you did okay, so we Sean asked
chet Gpt to roast our characters, so he read mantisays
I'll read Fords. So it says ah Ford, the living,
breathing billboard of contradictions, a troll with a heart as
big as his appetite for adventure, probably displaying a tattoo
of a Mustang across his chest. Because nothing says I
love America quite like permanently etching a symbol of automotive
freedom onto your body. Picture it a greasy wife beater,
undershirt stained with the remnants of countless oil changes, stretch
over a chest adorned with the proud emblem of American muscle,
and says he's declaring to the world, I may have
a immigrated illegally from the land of maple syrup, but
by golly, I bleed red, white and Mustang. And let's
not overlook his choice in vehicular companionship a Mustang, of course,
because nothing screams I'm compensating for something quite like roaring
down the highway in a car named after a wild horse.
But fear not, for Ford is not just a walking
advertisement for questionable life choices. He's also a master of
the road, a rigor extraordinaire, weaving through traffic with the
grace of a bull in a China shop and the
presence of a sloth on roller skates. So here's to you, Ford.
Speaker 1: May your Mustang tattoo serve as a constant reminder of
your undying love for all things American, and may your
driving skills be as legendary as your ability to dodge
immigration officers.
Speaker 2: Cheers to the troll with a chest full of dreams
and a truck full of tire irons.
Speaker 3: I feel like that was a bit more brutal.
Speaker 2: Christ.
Speaker 3: I'll remind you when I wrote these, I told it
to be meaner and sarcastic or snark here like two
or three two or three drafts to get it right.
Speaker 4: This is not nearly mean enough.
Speaker 3: Let's go yeah, all right.
Speaker 1: We'll leave the next one at break. So I'll keep
this here and we'll read the next one we get
to break.
Speaker 4: So it's what do we got going on? What's the plan?
Don't tell me what's going on? And here's the deal.
Here's how I want to do this because I I
don't know what the hell's about to happen. Okay, we're
gonna cut straight to the action Gortees. Yeah, so we
got like a like an aerial shot external gorteesel chemical.
It says that across the bottom, it's it shows the
time stamp, which is whatever you guys decide the timestamp is.
And uh, it's you know, it shows that and like
you know, it kind of kind of pans a little
bit rotates around the building just a touch as you
see it, and uh, then it cuts to you guys, Uh,
wherever you're at, in whatever vehicles you're in. So I'm
guessing a lot of you are probably in the the
Black America. Uh.
Speaker 2: So myself and uh Sarah are on my bike, and
then the other three are in the America.
Speaker 4: Okay, so we see you on the on the back
of the bike.
Speaker 2: Uh.
Speaker 4: And the bike is now upgraded with additional armor plates
that have been quickly welded on the previous montage. And
it's so it's got like a bunch of like extra
armor on there. And it looks kind of a little
bit like slap dash, but it looks bad ass like
it's hardy. It looks like industrial rather than like any
kind of like you know, real like professional thing. Like
it looks like it's just like all right, this is
gonna do it, and like she's on the back and like,
you guys, this is the first time you've seen Sarah
Murr dress like this. She's wearing like a bad ass
like leather like armored jacket that she's got. You know
what she's got. She's got knuckles regular like armor jacket
instead of the current security arm you gott So she's
got that. And she's got like a like a bad
ass like full closed motorcycle helmet and like it's like
like like red with like cool detail on it. And
the thing's down and she's you know, she's on the
back of it. She's uh, she's got like her arms
around uh mantis's waist and uh you know you like
move her hands up a little bit. You're like above
the belt please, and she's like, oh pardon and uh
she can.
Speaker 2: Go blow the bell she wants. Man, Oh, so.
Speaker 4: You move her hands down and then she's like no, yeah,
So she's she's like, uh, it's not like that, and
you're like, oh, sorry, misread the situation. And she moves
her hands back up and she's like, look, this is
just business, and you're all like business and she's like business,
and you guys are there and you fucking you and
you rip and you like fucking do a sick wheelly
and ship and you get to where you're supposed to be.
And then we see the Black America card. It looks
just like Ford's old car, except it's like super fresh
and like clean and a little bit shiny, and it's newer.
So it's got like a couple of cool additional there's
like a little spoiler on the back of it or whatever,
and uh, you know, it's got like a like a
glossy kind of that speckily like metallic stuff to the
black paint. And like the windows are tinted and like
the the camera pulls in and goes through the tinted
window and you see inside everybody in there. Everybody's geared
up in the same like matching security armor. What's what's
this armor look like for you guys?
Speaker 1: Oh, I imagine it's like full tactical squad armor.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, we look like aries hardcore.
Speaker 4: You look like the hardcore guys, okay, but cooler, cooler,
like our shoulder pads and everything. Oh fuck yeah, dude.
Speaker 11: If it's Ari's armor, the helmets have to look like
some ancient Greek helmets, but like moldern ones.
Speaker 2: I'm down with that. That sounds good.
Speaker 1: We spent the five grand on the goddamn helmets.
Speaker 7: So yeah, they have to look cool.
Speaker 4: I'm a man. You guys, Uh, the armor, it doesn't
look cool. You guys look like spaceballs. So it's like
that like that kind of off off white span dex
underneath with the black armor parts, and like the head
just looks like a big old bubble with your jaws.
Please don't no, okay, so here instead, you guys look
kind of almost like dread, like the twenty thirteen Dread, right, yeah, yeah, yeah,
So so it's cool and you've got you know, the helmet,
and the helmet I would imagine at this point it's
probably like a full close thing. So you got like
a like a thing that goes up your neck and
the helmet like closes around over the top of it.
And uh, but like but it's got the lights, like again,
the stupid fucking lights on the inside, so you can
see the actor's face. So so everybody's able to make out,
you know, your facial expressions and shit. And that's important
because later on, when you guys are getting you know, killed.
You guys can emote, but it looks bad as and
you guys all have the security armor. There's a bunch
of you know, like buckles and pouches and ship. It
looks like it was drawn by Rob Livefeld. So none
of you guys have feet. But uh yeah, because I
can't draw feet, Rob lifeld do better.
Speaker 3: He's got a lot better. Actually, you know.
Speaker 4: What a gun? A gun is better with a sword
on it, and the sword is better with a gun
on it, according to that gay. So by the way, Rob,
how come you're how come you don't answer my emails? Rob?
Speaker 2: But uh.
Speaker 4: Yeah, you're right, you're right, Rob, I'm not sorry. Do
better with feet specifically. Also, Wildcats was great, all right,
So let's go. You guys are there and we see
inside the car. The three of you are in there,
and like it's it's a little nerve wracking, you know.
You guys are all quiet. You know, there's there's uh
I would guess for it's probably playing some music and
like if I had the guess, it's like uh like
pearl jam and uh, you know, but you guys are
like in there and like, you know, the two guys
that are in there look at each other like this
music kind of sucks. It's like, dude, shut up, don't
worry about it. And you guys are you know, a
little bit antsy, a little nervous, and you're getting ready
and like this thing's you know, you like he's like
get randy and uh, you know, he fucking does like
a sick burnout and like you guys peel out and
you go and you get in the position, and you
guys meet up wherever you decide you're gonna meet up
to get ready to do the thing. And then you
guys are gonna do the thing. And I have no
no clue what that is. So let's uh, let's see
what's going on.
Speaker 3: All right. Sarah and I were both supposed to summon
the spirit. She was supposed to summon her like weird
super spirit.
Speaker 4: Oh, you guys were supposed to yeah this right, You
guys were gonna do, uh, do some ritual stuff ahead
of time.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and then I would find a spirit.
Speaker 4: Yeah. So you guys, she was telling you guys like
it's gonna be uh, we can do this. But it's
it's a it's a very personal thing. It's a little
intimate and you go through and this is where you
get your initiation. Right, So you guys are there and
like you know, She's like, okay, so it's important. This
is the way that I do it in my tradition.
She's like, what's your tradition? And you know a volt
I think you don't have one, right.
Speaker 3: My tradition is homelessness.
Speaker 4: She's like, let me. She's like, look, I studied MIT
and T for six years, so I've got a little
bit of a background in this. So let me teach
you a few things. And so she goes and you
guys are in this room, and she locks the door,
and she draws down the shade, and she like prepares
some stuff. She lights some candles, and she's she goes over.
There's like a like a Nest thermostat on the wall,
because Nest is still around. Nest is a double a
corporation at this point, by the way, And she goes
over to the Nest thermostat and she she dials it
up and she sets it for like ninety degrees and
like it immediately you hear it like snap on, and
it starts pumping heating there and like very quickly you
start sweating and she's like strip like what and she's
like down to your boxers and like she gets down yeah,
oh yeah, and she gets down into like she's wearing
like a you know, like a like a wife beater
kind of thing and like, uh, you know, some some
uh white underwear and like she like goes through all
the stuff and sets you down, and there's like candles
and there's like a bunch of like weird like stuff
that she's painted on the floor and like these weird
ritual runes and you guys sit down and she like
shows you how to get into the right position, and
she's like explaining to you. She's like close your eyes
and open your pineal eye. You need to focus on
the ether. And she starts going through all of this
stuff and she's explaining like uh like like magical formulae
and like quantities and shit like that, and uh, you're
going through and you're you're following along pretty well, and
she explains some stuff to you, and as you're trying
to visualize what she's telling you, like she uh, she
kind of she like scooches, and so you guys are
sitting there and you're, you know, you're sitting criss cross
apple sauce and like her knees are up against your knees,
and then she's like, give me your hands, and she
takes your hands and like, just for a moment, your
heart flutters. Her hands are soft and warm, real warm.
It's like ninety degrees in here, but her hands are warmer,
and she's like and it's a gentle touch. And then
like you're like uh oh and she oh. So you're
sitting there and she's like close your eyes, close your eyes,
and then like she you feel like just this moment,
this weird, tense moment, and then you feel something on
your forehead and you realize it's her forehead and you
lean forward and the two of you are sitting in
this pose mirrored and you're you know, holding hands, touching
knees and forehead, and she's hocking to you and you
can feel her breath on your gross mustache, and she's
like explaining what to do. And as she's explaining these
things to you, it it all makes perfect sense suddenly,
and you understand and like you feel this bizarre rush
as you're you astrally project in a way that you've
never done before, and you you travel beyond and sayd
of just the astral plane that you've seen, you know
thousands of times. Your your perception rushes through like a
like a tight tight tube. It's like you're being sucked
through a straw and you come to the other side
and there's this shadowy figure that's there and like you,
you're listening to her words. She's like, breathe in, breathe out.
Think about the way that the matrix of energy is
strew and you like suck through the straw and you
see this figure in front of you. It's like this
guy that's like pose. He's in lotus pose, and he's
got like a dozen arms, and it's he's shrouded in
like this tattered brown robe. You can't make out any
kind of features, but you see like points of light
under the hood, green little points of light. There's like
seven of them moving around, and like he's like talking
to you, and he's got this voice like you were
of extended Welcome to initiation. I will guide you on
your quest, and like his arms reach out and grab
into you, and you feel like you're being torn apart,
and your consciousness spreads across the fucking multi vorse. You
experience the the the metaplanes for the first time. You're
racing through dozens of them at once, and like your
your whole thing, your conscious slams back in your body
and you come to and like you're like sweating profusely,
and you're in this room, sitting in this the same
lotus pose that you saw this thing floating in and
you're like two inches off the ground and she's there
and she's looking at you, and she's like, what the fuck.
Speaker 3: And you're like, oh, and.
Speaker 4: Then you look down and you realize you've got like
a fucking full stick omnos going on, and she uh,
she looks and she sees it and you you guys
lock eyes for a moment and she's like, what are.
Speaker 3: And I'm getting fucking gross to the session.
Speaker 5: I was about to say if this was me in
real life, I would one hundred percent get an accidental bunner.
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, dude. And you're like, it's not intentional, it's
not burpose.
Speaker 3: Caused a lot of things happen.
Speaker 4: And she's like it's okay, it gets weird and you're like, yeah,
it's weird. It's like, it gets weird, don't worry. We'll
get through this together. And then she like like she
holds your hand like tight, and then you're like and
you suck back into the metaplanes, and again your consciousness
is shattered, and you're like traveling through like blasting through
webs of like mirrors and like fucking you see like molecules,
and then you can see like like like bizarre forms
of people you used to know, kind of morphing, like
they coalesce and then dissipate, and like all this stuff.
You see all of your old your entire life, every
single memory you have. She's like rapid fire, just flash
like all at once. And then I also at the
same time, you're seeing from the other side, from behind
your head. You can see it. It's the same thing,
but it's going through alternate paths of reality, and you're
seeing like all the different things that could have happened.
You see that dude that you're chasing through through that
crowd that had the samples, and instead you manage to
just reach out and stop him, and then he apologizes,
and you see a completely different future that could have
happened but didn't happen. And then you see like everything
that could ever be laid out before you in this plot,
it's like a constellation of reality. And then it all
just kind of slowly stops, and then it all retracts
and sucks right back into you, and then you bow,
you slam back into your body and you're rocked back,
and then you know you're she's holding onto you, and
you realize now that you're like laying down and like
you're sweating so profusely. There's tears streaming back down your
eye from your eyes down back into your ears, and
she's holding you, and she's like this, this isn't part
of the binding ritual. This is this is something else.
And then you're like, I have seen the lunar worm
and your consciousness has forever expanded in the way that
you can never ever change.
Speaker 3: And you get a bonner. I now have two boners,
a mind boner and a physical boner.
Speaker 4: Ranging brainer, And uh.
Speaker 2: That was some intense yelling.
Speaker 4: I don't know, dude, like I've I've got okay. So
here's the deal. Check this out. Tonight's uh Madness is
brought to you by unofficially bruden canned by Martin House
Brewing Company in Fort Worth, Texas. And if you guys
have to Fort Worth, get down to Martin House Brewing
and check out a beer called the Penguin. It's a
whiskey barrel age stout inspired by Moose tracks ice cream
has got chocolate, peanut butter, and vanilla swirled together. It
is aged for four months, which is not quite long
enough in whiskey barrels. This is a fifteen percent alcohol
by volume. Fucking delight. Let me tell you this thing
is delicious. Fifteen I am going to be blacked out
by the end of the session. I hope everybody's ready
for that. Weird enough, Oh yeah, let's get weird if
I if I stop talking for more than five minutes,
call the police. Uh so, uh so, yeah, that all happens.
And then you did whatever spirit thing you're trying to do.
That happens.
Speaker 3: Okay, thanks man, I've got close. Oh boy, okay, cool.
So we summoned two spirits.
Speaker 4: Great, but yeah, now you're able to uh to uh
the initiation thing is complete. You are able to ease
your magic attribute to seven, and you also gain like
a cool bonus thing. I think you spent the karma
to initiate, right, Yeah, okay, did you pick your cool
bonus thing that you do?
Speaker 2: Yes?
Speaker 3: It is shielding. So when I'm giving my allies or
myself some bonus dice to you defend against other people's spells.
Speaker 4: Okay, so your counter spelling is improved, yes, okay, cool?
So yeah that that that entity, that six armed, hooded
robed figure with the seven points of green light floating
around within the veil, it shows that to you. It
teaches you, and it's it's like, in order to succeed,
you must be able to defend yourself. Take the magical
matrix and twist it to your own bidding, and it
shows you like with the six arms like flowing in
bizarre like the like symbols that you recognize from the Kabbata,
and it teaches you how to better defend yourself and others. Cool.
And that is burned into your mind forever. So anytime
you're doing any kind of counter spelling like this, this
like burning green vision appears to you, uh, and you're
not sure whether or not other people can see it
because you're too embarrassed to ask, But it appears to
you like that, like that tree of the tree of life,
the Kabbala kabbala e tree of life, you guys know,
the one burns into your vision and you see it
as you're like touching parts of it with your hands
to make the counter spelling work forever.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and then I'm gonna, you know, before we go
and split our ways, I'm gonna give what is his
name knuckles some increased reflexes because he's going in by
himself and he could use.
Speaker 2: It, okay, myself with me.
Speaker 3: Okay, yeah, So I mean I appreciate it. Yeah, man, no,
no good So and then I gets.
Speaker 4: I just realize you guys can still see me. Yeah, okay, sorry,
if I'm by the way, this is the first time
that I'm streaming video to these dudes. This is this
is just basically what I'm doing every time that this
is going on. Like so there's a lot of me
doing weird moving around stuff that no one can see. So,
by the way, listeners, uh, I don't stop moving ever,
so uh keep that in mind.
Speaker 3: I guess maybe I got six successes and resisted four
of the seven drains, so I do take some damage, Okay.
Speaker 4: Unfortunately that stunt damage is gonna be on you going
into the action.
Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah, it's physical damage.
Speaker 4: Oh ship, The physical damage is gonna be on you
going into the action. Yeah, that's the kind of spirit
that you Uh, you can't, you can't. Oh, it's physical. Yeah,
you can turn it in Stun, what's the spirit?
Speaker 3: Spirit of beasts?
Speaker 4: Spirit of beasts? Did you already pull stats for that? Uh?
Speaker 2: No, not yet?
Speaker 4: No, okay, Adam.
Speaker 2: That reminds me one thing I meant to ask you.
Was there any way that I could have healed any
of the remaining physical damage that was still on me
in the time that we had?
Speaker 4: Yeah, because I imagine you guys spent at least a
couple of hours, so more physical damage you got.
Speaker 1: I have four wounds on me?
Speaker 4: Yeah, was oh nocause? I mean that's you guys. You
did a physical healing like medicine tests already, didn't you.
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 4: Did you get the heels spell cast on you as well?
Speaker 2: I believe so yeah.
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, you're stuck with that ship then for for
this adventure.
Speaker 1: But good make it, make it good fun?
Speaker 2: Okay?
Speaker 3: Oh kay, I had I did have a quick question too.
Speaker 6: That my Renner jacket that can go over my Kevler, Right, it.
Speaker 4: Can go over, but they don't stack.
Speaker 2: They don't stack. Yeah, I see what you did there.
Speaker 4: Yeah, So it's the kind of thing like, uh, if
you want to have like a like an armored jacket
and an armored vest, like they don't stack. But if
you're in a situation where you have to ditch the
armor jacket for whatever reason, the vest is already equipped,
but it doesn't stack.
Speaker 3: I missed a garment stacks though, right.
Speaker 4: Missic armor. I do believe stacks with.
Speaker 11: What that one does, because it's yeah, it differently, it's
it's just to stop people pulling romput bullshit.
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, so that you don't just wear like, Okay,
I'm gonna wear an armored T shirt and an armored
wack like a turtle.
Speaker 7: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 2: So Sean, do you do you have is the spirit
summoned now or do you have to summon it later?
Speaker 3: It's summoned now, like he said, we went through the
summing process, so it's yeah.
Speaker 4: So basically the way that would work is that the
he's gone through the process to summon it and then
you know, he can talk to it whatever, and then
it'll like dip back into the astral plane and it
hangs out there until he calls it back.
Speaker 3: Right, And so I needed to spend a few hours
binding it.
Speaker 4: But yeah, so that's fine. Yeah, that's also part of
the process.
Speaker 7: Ye.
Speaker 4: So yeah, after you go through your initiation that you like,
it's it was unexpected, h that just happens. And then
she's like, holy shit, this is not what I was
expecting to happen. But uh, you know you guys, you
guys talk about it for a minute, and she goes,
sh it's personal for everyone. It's okay, I went through
it too. Yeah, it's unique for each of us. But
we need to we need to really focus for a
little bit. Okay, let's do this. Let's get these spirits.
And so you guys go through and you summon your
spirit and then she shows you, she works with you
to bind it and like you know, you guys are
there and you're like offering it, uh stuff in order
to kind of like as a favor, Like Okay, look,
if you do these things for me, I will give you.
And you say it's the spirit of beasts.
Speaker 3: Yeah it's like reagents.
Speaker 4: Yeah it would.
Speaker 3: It would be like a un electrified hound.
Speaker 4: Okay, So it's it's, uh, what's that guy called Archie
on something? I don't know. There's one of those pokemons.
So but yeah, you someone someone your electrified. You know what, No,
it's not a Pokemon. It's not that. This isn't that
kind of show. It is a uh and because you
you didn't describe it, and I'm describing it. It's a
Boston arior and it is uh, it's a Boston Arior,
but it's huge, and like what force did you summon
this thing?
Speaker 3: At six?
Speaker 4: It's huge. It's a Boston area. Is even bigger than
my huge Boston aior. This thing is like the size
of like like two toddlers in a costume. And it's
like he's a he has muscltery and he's like electrical
and like he's got you know, it's he's a he's
a black and white one, not one of the brindle ones,
but you know that he's got like arcs of electricity
to come off of him, and like you summon him
in and he shows up and you feed him like
you know, it's specially prepared, like like resistors and shit,
and like it's like this is a resistor from a
computer that was purchased from IBM in like nineteen eighty
seven that used to belong to you know, this guy,
and so it's got like special meaning to it and
like you know, he takes that and he eats it,
and he eats like some other stuff that's it's all
like spiritually powerful electrical type things and dog stuff. So
he eats that stuff. He's got like a you give
him a bunny, right, and it's like a like a
bunny that you know you had to kill by hand,
and it was tragic, like you had to like you
had like a acumontage, like instead of chasing a chicken around,
you're chasing a bunny. And you like finally catch the
bunny and then like you know, you you have to
like kill it by hand, and like you cry, and
then Sarah Mura like comforts you, and then like you
you misread the situation. She ends up slapping you and
then like you, uh, you feed the bunny to the dog,
and so you go through the whole thing. And so
this thing's bound to you, and she does she I
guess do you guys, did you need her to have
a spirit bound too or something or what?
Speaker 3: I don't care if it's bound seemed like a frog
fucking spirit.
Speaker 4: So okay, all right, all right, yeah.
Speaker 1: She she is gonna summit it though, correct.
Speaker 3: All right?
Speaker 4: So yeah, she'll go through her thing too, and like
she's got like the specific ritual and she goes through,
and she like before going through her process, she explains
to you exactly what to do, and then like you
guys go through and it's like, you know, you're standing
here doing like weird bizarre poses and like at the
right time, you hit like a little tiny bell and whatever,
and you know, she summons her thing and like this guy,
it's like a like a humanoid form that there's nothing,
and slowly this like bump of skin like rises from
this this arcane symbol that's been like etched and painted
onto the ground, and like this like lump of flesh
comes up and slowly like rises and forms the shape
of a dude with no head and instead of the
head like as it like stands up to full height,
like this beam of light just fucking spreads out from
its neck and healing and uh, you know it's there,
and like it approaches her and like holds his hand
out like and she you know, she takes the hand
and it kind of like dips down like in like
a curtsy almost, and like the beam of light washes
over her and she gives it like a solemn nod
and she's like it's it's good to heavy back, and uh,
you know, it goes like prave and she's like, thank you,
it's not her and it goes like and you don't
understand what's going on, but like she understands it, and
you know, with a with a nod and a gesture,
the thing you know, flips into astral space disappears, and uh,
the whole time like and then after that's done, like
you're standing there and your hair and your beard has
been like blown back, and like is like like like
it looks like you've been in like a fucking wind tunnel.
And she looks she looks glorious, you know, like her
hair has been blown and it's like tossled, but you
look like you've been like hit by a fucking jet stream.
And uh. And then she's like, okay, I'm ready, and
you're just like, oh yeah, but yeah, and then she
goes on, yeah, she goes over and she turns the
temperature back down to a cool sixty nine degrees and
uh uh you know, she she had like towels prepared
and the towels have like essential oil them or something.
They're ready. You know, and like, you know, you get
the towel and you like dry off, and she dries
off and like it's just like I need a shower,
and then she goes off to shower. And then you're
sitting there You're like, what what the fuck just happened?
Like this has been the most intense and then you
look at your calm link. Eight minutes of my life. O.
Speaker 3: Great, I'm glad we have so much extra time to
do things. I didn't think we'd have. Okay, how it
would take a lot longer than that.
Speaker 4: It takes a lot longer than that to get all
your gear, by the way, Yeah, I guess what, guys.
You guys get to the right amount of time.
Speaker 3: So I'm just sitting in the car with Ford and Mantis,
rethinking my entire life after the scene all of that.
Speaker 4: Is it too much?
Speaker 3: No? No?
Speaker 2: You okay?
Speaker 3: Their vaults sounds like you're kind of in your head.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: I love the glasses, their scar or the headband.
Speaker 12: It is.
Speaker 7: Like the fuck up?
Speaker 4: Wait, the fuck up?
Speaker 7: We need right head in the game.
Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, No.
Speaker 2: So I'm gonna I'm gonna pull up alongside the American
on Ford side and then uh be like all right,
you guys.
Speaker 3: Ready, yeah, listen, we have to time this so we
all get in. I mean, preferably you both track when
the man of barrier is down for that short period
of time. Right by the way, the spell is gonna
be fucking dissipated and like the spears can't get in
the major and nowhere here yep.
Speaker 4: Oh, by the way, listeners, there's a tiny, tiny window
where the man of barriers down. So the way that
this stuff works, they will these mages will conjure a
man of barrier and it lasts sun up to sundown,
and then there's someone that comes in conjures when that
goes from sundown to sun up. So there's a very
small window where there's no barrier. We're talking like maybe
maybe like a minute that you can get through.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's that's what we're trying to time. We want
to try to enter the building when the man mana
barrier is down. And uh, I'll be like all right.
Speaker 11: So question mm hm is the mona baria on the
perimeter of the facility or the outside of the building.
Speaker 4: It's basically overlapped the walls, thank you all right?
Speaker 2: And we know and.
Speaker 4: Doors you know, but like it's it's the think like
like the like pink bubble. It's over the building in
Ghostbusters too, except you know, oh yeah, except on the
the astroal fucking ooze. Yeah, okayo cool.
Speaker 3: And then I'm gonna give Mantis I think and hands
three flexes too. Right before we go in.
Speaker 4: You feel it, he casts the spell, he touches you,
and then suddenly your spine, just like lightning, spreads throughout
your whole body and you can feel all of your
body at once, just jitterly, ready, tight with energy, coiled
like a cobra ready to strike.
Speaker 2: I like it.
Speaker 3: I like it cool. So Mantis, you get plus five
initiative and plus two D six plus six initiative and
plus three D six. I actually have to do that
again because I did not do the minus.
Speaker 2: Two And where do I put that on your physical?
You said plus six? Yeah, and how many D six.
Speaker 3: Plus three D six, so three in addition to whatever
you're currently have.
Speaker 4: Yeah, what, holy shit, dude, you're gonna be fucking cruising.
Speaker 1: Dude, have you been doing fucking astral pushups?
Speaker 2: Because you fucking jacks.
Speaker 7: You'll get me like a weapon with a bum full
of dot I bought some some.
Speaker 3: Fucking dope ass ship that helps me fucking the spells.
Speaker 1: Holy shit, man, you really are magic.
Speaker 3: Okay, Yeah, so you get the plus two D six
and plus five U Mantis.
Speaker 7: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Wow, Sorry, I'm freaking out. My equipment's like, gone, what you.
Speaker 1: Don't need equipment where we're going.
Speaker 3: We just need violence and you need to do it.
Speaker 4: Just violence, a lot of violence.
Speaker 2: Unshackle your pacifism.
Speaker 1: Okay.
Speaker 4: So there's a bunch of equipment on here.
Speaker 1: Your sound filters.
Speaker 2: Are on, and uh, you guys checked the lab. We'll
check the dorms once you find him. Radio the other
get the fuck out.
Speaker 3: Yeah, gas masks in case, uh.
Speaker 2: Yep, gas masks equipped. Uh loaded.
Speaker 3: I'll hand five trauma patches to booth Rag. Okay, something
bad happens to you guys. Here's some trauma patches.
Speaker 2: I will give all but one to Sarah because I
don't really know what to do with these.
Speaker 4: So she she tucks them into like, uh, like the
the pockets of this jacket there's like an inside like
a breast pocket. She like tucks it in there, and
then she's like, I've used these before, I know how
to do them.
Speaker 2: I figured right, yeah, all right you uh, you're ready
to get your old man back.
Speaker 4: I missed him so much. All right, yeah, kick is
asked when I see him.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's justified on now.
Speaker 2: Uh and so our our meat point is back.
Speaker 1: I think back in the parking garage. Correct, once we extract.
Speaker 4: I have no clue. I don't know.
Speaker 1: I'm I'm asking.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was confirming.
Speaker 3: That would be fun because the car is probably gonna
be there too, unless we're gonna have it like right
at the front door.
Speaker 2: Uh no, no, you were not.
Speaker 4: Tat what's it? Oh? Yeah, Rad? Fuck you? All right, sorry, go.
Speaker 1: On, Yeah, because you guys are we're going.
Speaker 2: I think you guys were putting the car on the
floor with the parking garage with the the the bridge,
the skybridge, because that's the same level as the labs.
Speaker 4: And then and the garage is two stories, so yeah,
I think the garage was three stories, but the bridge
is on the second.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so that's that's where the car is gonna be.
Speaker 2: And then they're going to go through that entrance, and
then we were gonna have Sarah hughse what spell was it?
Speaker 3: Sean barriers.
Speaker 4: Maybe you guys are gonna do the fucking physical barrier thing.
That's so rad.
Speaker 2: Sarah do the physical barrier so that her and I
can ramp up to the third floor through a window
on the motorcycle.
Speaker 4: So fucking awesome. I love it. I fucking love it.
Speaker 2: And we're trying to time this so we can get
through the man of barrier too.
Speaker 3: So it's about a minute opening, right, so Sarah and
I can see when the man of barrier is down right.
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, yeah, you guys are able to watch. So
so you guys get into position. But you got the
car on the second level, you got the bike on
the top, and you guys are there, and uh, the
two astrally preceptible perceivable, the two that can actually perceive,
are ready, and you guys drop into your astral perception mode.
Unfortunately that doesn't work through the car window, so you
have to have the window rolled down. You got your
head leaning out of the car before you you know,
do your thing, and you look out and you're watching
and at the same time, both of you see it
because it drops, you know, the whole building at once.
It's not like you know, one and the nail or whatever,
but it drops and both of you are like, go
at the exact same time, and she she does her thing.
You start, you start ripping on the bike. You you
fucking throttle up and you pop a sick wheelie and
you start going. As she starts, she starts mumbling something.
You can hear it because like she's like, you know,
hugging up against you as you do the wheelie because
she doesn't want to fall off, so like her her
like helmets, like right up against your helmet, and you
can hear her through it. She's mumble mumbling something in
some language you don't understand. And then you see as
you're ripping ass towards ripping ass, I keep doing that.
You're hauling ass towards the uh the uh the edge.
There's like a like a waist high concrete wall at
the lip of the parking garage, so the cars don't
drive through it, and you're just gunning it towards that,
and uh, you don't see you don't see the ramp.
You don't see the ramp, and you getting real close
and you're like like, come on, come on, come on,
and like just as you're about to get there, she
fires up the physical barrier spell and you see just
this this rainbow like bridge kind of situation form up
in like this this uh, this curved ramp wedge and
you hit it and you go up and you just
fucking jump. I need a driving test from you, and uh,
I need at least God, this is totally crazy. Three hits.
Let's get three hits for you to make this this.
Speaker 2: You know, don't even say it. I will kill you,
you goddamn Chris.
Speaker 3: I'm gonna need you to free.
Speaker 2: Edge of course.
Speaker 4: Oh god, I can hear you leaning into the must.
Speaker 2: Drive pilot craft I needed in my life more.
Speaker 4: Put the microphone in my mouth.
Speaker 2: Yeah, right, here we go.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, that's what doesn't.
Speaker 2: Oh my god, only to successful.
Speaker 4: Lam into the side of the building and day cool.
Speaker 1: Well, good luck, guys.
Speaker 4: All right, so here's all right, we'll come back to it.
We'll come back to what happens with your failure on that.
So you guys on the second level, how is this
going down? Are you guys trying to drive across this thing?
Speaker 3: We never determined.
Speaker 2: So I guess, uh, you guys are going in on
foot with the riot shields because I don't I don't
think you're driving the car through the door and.
Speaker 1: Through the hole.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean that would be like he might be
able to like it'll fit U. That's why you.
Speaker 1: Guys got the uh the riot shields.
Speaker 3: So as long as we can get you know, across
there in a minute, yeah, that'd be fine.
Speaker 4: Right. So, yeah, you guys make it. It's it's not
that long of a thing. It takes you, guys, I
don't know, maybe like fifteen seconds to get across this thing,
especially if you're running, like you guys get cross the
real face. So you guys start moving and there's that
there's like an external like there's a door on the
parking garage side, and you guys get through that no problem,
and you're running across it's like it's carpeted the skybridge.
It's got like this kind of like it's like a
hexagonal not kind of pattern on the carpeting as it
goes across, and you know, you guys are running across it,
and you're like the carpet wasn't here before, and you know,
you got the windows and they look out over the
street and you guys see as you're running, you look
off to the left side and you see the bike
just slow motion through the air. Sorry, as you guys
are sprinting across, and there's the camera that was there before,
and it's definitely a new camera, a better looking camera,
and the glass doors on the other side are there,
and you guys are running towards it, and you guys
get to the doors. Did you have a plan on
how to get through these doors? Because these things are
not like you can't just like open them.
Speaker 6: If only we had some explosives on hand.
Speaker 4: Yeah, there's that too. You know, I think I think
Ford might be able to open it the old fashioned way.
But how was it going.
Speaker 3: I'm just trying to I'm just trying to impress for
it so he'll like.
Speaker 4: Okay, yeah, that's important. So if you want to do that,
go for it. Give me a give me an archery
test this. This door is not going to try to
get out of the way, So give me a hit
or two, and uh, we'll see if you got enough
enough juice to blast this thing open.
Speaker 3: Here comes the juice.
Speaker 2: Maybe not two.
Speaker 1: Pimps, just what you needed.
Speaker 4: Yeah, dude, that's good. Yeah, absolutely, what's uh, there's well,
you know, you got to make the attack roll with
your bow so I can see the damage values and
stuff like that.
Speaker 3: Go ahead and click the right thing, the right thing,
the right.
Speaker 4: Right, like the like like you're attacking with the bow.
Speaker 2: The hell are you talking about, Adam.
Speaker 1: Make an a tack roll with the ball.
Speaker 3: You go to equipment, you have to roll, and then
you hit the roll button with fucking did it.
Speaker 2: I knew you could do it.
Speaker 4: And we're gonna take the way. Awesomer which is a word.
Look it up. If it's not a word, it's a word.
Now awesome.
Speaker 3: Here's the actual correct role.
Speaker 2: Why damn me?
Speaker 4: WHOA twenty damn?
Speaker 3: Are you sure that's right?
Speaker 4: Shit? Hey, explosive head and you've got an explosive.
Speaker 6: Eleven DV on the explosive head.
Speaker 4: Holy shit, all right, so you fire here this this
this explosive arrows. You guys are running u so unfortunately
you can't have well no you can. You got all
these extra arms and ship. So you got the shield
and the bow over the top, which is fucking bonkers,
and you fire off this explosive head. This thing is shaped.
It looks like a step drill. The bit on a
step drill bit on the head of this arrow. If
you guys know what that is, look it up. You'll
it only fat, and this thing flies and it hits
the door like right in the middle, and as you
guys are approaching, just before you get into range, it
detonates and explodes, and they like it fucking blasts the
door open and like it. It. It's glass, it's mostly
glass with a metal frame. So the glass all blows out,
but it's got like the meshing side of it, so
it's like a bunch of like pebbles that fly out
of it, and the metal frame bends and twists away
and there's like a gout of black smoke and the
thing peels open and you guys burst in. So you're
into this hall. And as you guys get into this hall, uh,
it's it's very similar to how it was before. You
know where you're coming from. On the right hand side,
you've got those those windows that run the length that
look into these labs, and uh, what time is it.
It's at the transition point right so where the man
of barriers down. So it's, uh God, at this point,
I think it's about like sixty six forty PM something
like that, six thirty maybe, So it's I'm not gonna
I'm not gonna look up the sundown time at this
month in Seattle, but probably about six thirty pm. We're
gonna call it that. And you know, so there's, uh,
the most of the lab crew is gone actually after
it got bought. These guys are working longer shifts. Unfortunately,
you know, they're getting paid better, but they got longer hours.
So there's a dude in the lab and he's working.
He's in there. You see a dude in like a
clean suit through the window and he's got like a
pipe atte and he's dripping some kind of liquid stuff
into a test tube. And like as the door blows open,
you see the guy. He's got like those it's like
a white clean suit, and he's got yellow like like
elbow length like rubbery gloves, and like he fucking bobbles
the thing that he's holding and it hits the ground
and it blows up, and then he starts to like
panic and like you know, there's a bunch of gas
going off in there, and you guys start rushing in
and you hear this loud explosion again as man knuckles.
You crash through a window on the second floor and
you slam your bike through and you end up in
this thing. It's marked here on the map is the
boiler room. Uh so you you drive through a window
into the second floor. You didn't make the jump unfortunately,
and you smash in and there's a bunch of like
electrical equipment in here, and you land in the bike
you know, hits and it kind of skids a little
bit into go sideways and you're like getting close to
the point we were about to lay the bike down
with the extra armor on. It's like shooting sparks as
you're sliding sideways. You guys managed to disengage safely before
the bike slams into a bunch of equipment. And like
the lights immediately kick off and go into like an
emergency lighting thing, so like they they drop and as
soon as they're gone, like red and orange kind of
ambery lights come on all over the facility and like
like an alarm starts going off and it's like like
a battle clack sun kind of situations like it is
going off throughout the whole thing, And uh, you guys
are off to a great start. I think it's probably
a good time for a little breaking break.
Speaker 2: I was gonna say, I really got use the bathroom.
It was perfect. Oh man, all right, fucking fifteen dice.
Speaker 1: I couldn't roll one six?
Speaker 2: What the fuck is this game?
Speaker 4: Yeah?
Speaker 3: Dude, yeah, man, that's real rough. I would have begged
for some extra dice.
Speaker 2: That's bullshit, that's what that is.
Speaker 7: That was too fair.
Speaker 11: When things go wrong is always when it goes the
most entitating in this game. If it goes perfectly, it's
boring as hell. If everything goes wrong but you pull
it out the fire, it's fucking awesome.
Speaker 2: Oh.
Speaker 1: I'm fully prepared to die if I have to.
Speaker 3: Run.
Speaker 1: You know, I opened my third eye a shadow run.
Speaker 2: But yeah, I'll.
Speaker 7: Be backing about it, right, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2: The bow.
Speaker 3: The bow is grossly overpowered.
Speaker 2: I think I've fixed it now, though there are some
wrong wrong info, isn't there?
Speaker 3: Okay? But twenty damage? God damn, why haven't you bow
yet passed? Best? You'd kill everyone?
Speaker 6: I mean I did pour everything into archer remo and
bow insort.
Speaker 7: Let me see what let's see this should be correct.
Speaker 3: Let me just look see what that looks like. Oh
that's a nice role too.
Speaker 6: Uh.
Speaker 2: We are back listeners, and before we jump back in,
our guest Ridiom is going to read off another one
of the uh the roastings that the chat GPT did.
Speaker 1: This is for Bolt's character.
Speaker 11: I believe ah behold Vault, walking fossil of the shadow
running world, living in a burned out building like it's
a retirement home, sporting a fashion meant out of style
before he hit puberty, dirty snowjacket, grimy jeans, and old
Timberland boots. It's like he's trying to single handedly bring
back the worst of nineties fashion. And let's not overlook
his advanced age, a ripe old fifty years because nothing
screens past my prime quite like slinging spells and clinging
to a life of crime when most people are settling
into retirement homes. But tear not, for Vault is not
just any washed up mage. She's also a technological mud
heighte texting like he's hammering out Morse code on a
telegraph machine. It's as if he's allergic to progress, clinging
to his balpeen hammer like it's security blanket in a
world of cybernetic enhancements and magical wonders. But amidst his
outdated attire and aversion to modernity, Vault still manages to
cast electrical spells and manipulate minds with a I need.
Speaker 7: The rest of it.
Speaker 11: You've not sent me the whole thing.
Speaker 3: Chatbt out did itself.
Speaker 2: Where's the rest? Oh? Here it is for that.
Speaker 7: To start riffing.
Speaker 1: It was too long for the whole sentence.
Speaker 7: There we go.
Speaker 11: Vault still manages to cast electrical spells and manipulate minds
with all the finesse of.
Speaker 7: A geriatric wizard.
Speaker 11: His to you, Vault, may your spells be as feeble
as your grasp botb technology, and may your hammer strikes
be as ineffective as your attempts to stay relevant in
the ever evolving world of shadow rolling.
Speaker 4: Cheers to the street.
Speaker 11: Mate with one foot in the past and the other
firmly planted in irrelevance.
Speaker 3: Feels good.
Speaker 4: Oh but yeah, one for the past, one from the grave.
Speaker 6: Oh my god, Hey, I just gotta say, I can
listen to you narrate all night.
Speaker 4: Yeah, for real, for real? You gotta you get a
voice for radio man, you get It's like a smooth valure.
Oh man, that's fantastic. Guys, made the bad choice. I
opened another one of these beers. I'm gonna be fucking
stinko by the end of the night.
Speaker 7: With the one foot of the past.
Speaker 11: There's an expression in Scotland for the like people who
are obsessed with like quote unquote traditional Scotland and the
known having one foot in the short bread tin.
Speaker 4: A right, looks.
Speaker 13: Nice man, all right, So we left off I think
I think Knuckles had crashed into the side of the
building and dayed and then the rest of you guys
are in there, and there was some guy and he
dropped some kind of Cheetoh no, what are we doing?
Speaker 4: No, you had slid into cool fashion, shot out a
bunch of sparks. You're good. You disengage from the motorcycle
just in time for it to slam in and knock
out the power. Emergency lighting kicks on the guy that
was inside that lab who had panicked, and he dropped
the thing and it blew up. Excuse me, As the
emergency lighting kicks on in there, it goes black for
a moment, and you guys see him in there. It
goes black and you lose sight and it comes back
on and like there's like fire going on in there,
and like it's it's not like a huge fire. You
guys don't have to worry about it, but it's enough
that it is like shooting out a bunch of smoke,
and like the dude's like ah, he's panicking in the
amber light and like slamming against the window and like
there's like this the smoke that's billowing out is like
this weird blue black and it's leaving just like this
grime across that window, and uh, you know, he's like
pounding against it and then he like oh no, and
he like falls down in there. And you guys are
on the moving side. Where are you headed?
Speaker 2: Well, I'm immediately gonna over our our comms, tell him
we landed on the second floor. We'll take us some
minutes to get upstairs.
Speaker 4: Do you guys hear him through the coms? Just after
you hear him through the wall, knock.
Speaker 7: On the wall?
Speaker 2: You uh you right.
Speaker 1: There, boiler room?
Speaker 4: Right, so you you crashed through the door. That is
the only door out of the room that you're in.
And he goes into a fan room. As I it's listed,
this room has a bunch of like, uh, mechanical equipment
that you don't recognize. You got no experience, I mean,
do you have any kind of knowledge of mechanical equipment? Yeah?
So no, right, yeah, so you got no clues. So
there's like a whole bunch of like machines is what
you see. And like there's another door on the opposite side.
There's nobody in this room, and like the emergency lightings
in here, and it's like for whatever reason in here,
it's like, uh, like the blue light special a Kmart,
you know, it kind of rotates and you guys remember
Kmart anyhow, so it's like a rotating orange amber light
and like it's you know, as you're moving through, it
kind of sends weird shadows around the room. But you
get across and you burst out of the door and
you're in the hall like right behind these guys as
they're progressing down. So you guys all have a quick
moment while you snap around. You're like, oh, it's knuckles
and uhs right behind you and she she like pulls
up the helmet and pulls it off, and then like.
Speaker 1: Does the bike still work or is it is it busted?
Speaker 4: No, the bike is still good, and then you yeah, yeah,
So you get on the bike and then series holding
the door open for you as you kind of awkwardly
drive the bike through, and then she like moves to
the next door. And holds it opens you like awkwardly
drive the bike through, and then you're in the hall
and you're like pumping out like you know, smoke from
the exhaust and you're in this hall.
Speaker 3: So question, could uh, does Sarah Murr have like an
image of her husband or like a family photo or
something we could have seen you.
Speaker 4: Yeah, so you can see him. Oh, you know what,
I don't think I've ever shown you, guys, Howard. Let's
bring him up. He's in our NPCs. He is listed
in here under U MRR Family Howard Mirr show to
everyone there he is. Don't worry about that that quote
in there, that's probably not going to come up. You guys,
never encountered them in a situation where that's relevant. Okay, cool, right,
he's Mongolian.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it says for the listeners, it says please your shoes. Yeah,
that's that's.
Speaker 4: Not relevant right now. Where he's got this cool jacket
that's got some sort of high tech kind of circuitry
looking shoulder stuff on his cool jacket. He looks very businesslike.
He's mid forties. He's got a cool corporate, cool guy haircut,
and he's got like a goatee and he's his name's
Howard Boscom.
Speaker 3: Did we encounter Mongolian enemies in the junkyard?
Speaker 4: No, man, that's really that's I think I think by
you asking me that question, I think that makes you racist. No,
you thought like the like the tongue, the tongue, it
was one of the one of the tongs there those are.
That's like a Chinese gang. This dude is Mongolian. It's
totally different. I mean they're they're like a geograph close together,
but like totally different, totally different cultures, totally different food.
Speaker 7: Do we know which lob is his?
Speaker 4: You do? You do? You guys have that information? It's
it was one forty six as listed on this map.
We've come in you guys, give you guys searching for.
Speaker 3: Him if we want, what'd you say?
Speaker 2: Se?
Speaker 3: I can have my spirit search for him like how
we found Uh.
Speaker 1: I don't think we got time for searching. The alarms
are going off. We blew up the wall. Let's just
pedal to the metal.
Speaker 3: Okay, and we're we're ripping.
Speaker 2: Down the hall the motorcycle towards the staircase to get
up to the third floor.
Speaker 4: So this carpet that's in here this is like fresh carpet.
It's probably got installed in the past couple of weeks.
And you are more ripping. You know, it's like parts
of it all like scorch and it's like made out.
It's like a like a poly blend. And as you're
ripping across it, this stuff is just turning black and
like it's like singing and like kicking up just enough
like acrid smell for you to know that you're just
really racking it. And uh, you're going and you're you're
shooting out like road dirt all over the place, and uh,
you burn rubber down this hall. All right, that that happens.
So what where are you going?
Speaker 2: Uh to the staircase to get up through.
Speaker 3: The third floor.
Speaker 4: Oh shit, dude, that's rad. So you you know, in
order to get there, you have to go all the
way across this hall and their stairs that go up.
So you go, as everybody else is doing their thing,
you go up the stairs. You pop a little bit
of a wheelie and you and you go up the
stairs and you kind of like fishtail around the it's
like a switchback. You like switch tail around the switch
back and go up and like the stairs are Uh,
they were like concrete last time, but now they've got
like a nice faux wood that's been put over it
to make it a little bit more sophisticated since it's
owned by somebody a little a little bit more moneyed
than the previous owners. But you're going up and like,
you know, there's little bits of it that you're like
breaking away as you go up, and like the handrails
are nice and you just like clip one of them
and tear it off as you go up the stairs,
and you're just like fucking up the joint. You guys
that are on this level, Where are you guys going?
You go into the lab, Yeah, let's go.
Speaker 2: To the lot.
Speaker 4: Yeah, okay, so you're moving.
Speaker 3: You guys got spelling in case we meet anyone.
Speaker 4: Okay, so you got your cower spell stuff set up.
You guys have riot shields. So these are like big,
they're like transparent, and they've got like, you know it
straps to your forearm and then you're holding on to
it with you know, your hand, and there's like like
a black band across basically where your arm is and
it says police on it. Even though you guys aren't cops,
it still says it. But you guys have these riot
shields and you're able to see through them. Okay, but
you're you're like moving in like a like a formation
to block any kind of shit it might be coming
your way. I'm just gonna have you know for fundsies.
Like a dude pops out and you like fire is
off like a like a grenade kind of thing. You
guys like bash it away and you like fucking hit
the dude in the mouth and like knock him down.
And you guys move around the corner, and uh, you
go in to where the lab is and it's marked.
You see the placard on the outside. It's etched. It's nice.
If you knew any any better, you would know that
the it's on like a like a like a hard
like uh, like a laminate situation that's been etched into
and it's posted on a thing. It's like a brass
thing that slides into it doesn't matter, but you know
it's there. So what you see is Howard Muhr or
Murr Howard Lab one four six and uh, you know
you guys, uh, you guys boot the door open and
there's nobody working inside of it, and you look in
and you can see some some weird crap written on
a whiteboard, and he's working on I guess, a different
project than what he was on before. There's a bunch
of diagrams and and and schematics and formulae, and none
of it makes any sense to any of you guys.
There's you know, a couple of like personal effects in there.
You can see, you know, some tools or something like
a like a like an athomoscope. I'm not sure what
that is. I think I may have just made it up.
But there's one of those and some other tools that
are scattered about, and uh, you know he's not in there.
Me cut back to you guys ripping around the stairs
going up. You guys are headed to the third floor,
so we're gonna transition now to that third floor. This
floor has been remodeled recently since this, uh, this building,
this company was acquired. The company was acquired as well
as the building, and they knocked down everything that was
in the second, I'm sorry, the third and fourth floors
and totally re renovated it. This has been turned into
like a like a I guess cubicle farm I think
is what it's called. So there's a bunch of cubes
and like offices and stuff like that. It's not an
actual farm, but there's dudes in there doing all sorts
of boring work. There's you know, like it guys, and
there's like people that have to do like I don't know,
like accounting and the stuff like human resources and all
sorts of stuff where you sit at a desk and
look at a computer and it's you know, you don't
get to see the outside world on your shift. There's
a tree, but it's plastic, so you don't even know.
You just look at the tree and you're like, I
guess the weather's fine, baby, who knows whatever. Show up,
it's dark outside. You leave, it's dark outside again, or
still no one knows how long you're at work. Maybe
the clocks move at a different pace in here. You'll
know you don't have contact to the outside world while
you're working. Unless you have contact to the outside world,
then you're just dealing with idiots over the phone. They're
security cameras. The security camera see you. Obviously, as soon
as you come up, you're gonna come up with the serious
and like this is I know, it's a different orientation.
You come up over here. We're gonna we're gonna imagine
that it's sideways. These are just maps that I grabbed
off of them internets. They give me a visual kind
of idea. So you come up the stairs and there's
this this hall. There's a bunch of you know, doors,
and like the a lot of the walls that you
see are cubicle walls, so they're like that. It's almost
like a grade like carpeting. And they go up they're
like six feet high, but the ceiling is ten feet high,
so there's like four foot of open air above them.
And it's after six pm, so a lot of these
dudes have gone home for the day, but there's still
a bunch of people that are working. Like the regular
shift ends earlier, but there's still some guys. I have
to stay late because you know, the pressure of the
corporate overlords. But you come through. Youah, security guys that
are coming in. You guys are able to because we
established pre you guys are able to interrupt or not interrupt,
intercept their their coms chatter through some sort of technological
thing and you hear they're like, uh, you know, breach
on the second level. We've got somebody bust through the wall.
The door has been blown open. Dispatch troops and everybody
moving a position. So guys are moving towards the second
floor as you're going up that third floor and you
come through and you run past this camera right here.
It's it's at your back, and you feel eyes on
your back and you look back and you see the
camera and it's like moving and it looks it's it's
pointed right at you. It stops, and you know, you
get this this coms thing. It's like like third floor
actions of the third floor. Motor cycle on the third floor,
motors Yeah, yep, motorcycle, motorcycle two passengers.
Speaker 1: I get.
Speaker 4: Well, I mean like a driver and a passenger, two
people on the motorcycle on the third floor, and they
they start dispatching dudes, and you get like a thing
that responds says like mage night Alpha, Bravo. Scundice approaching
third floor from fourth floor, moving the position all right,
and yeah that's yeah.
Speaker 1: Do we know which dorm is his?
Speaker 4: Yes? So you have you're able to tell from the
information that turbo laser pulled for for you. I can't
fifteen percent alcohol by volume on can number two I'm
having a great time, so you'll have to deal with
whatever crap comes out of my mouth. So over here,
Turbo Laser got you guys some information letting you know
that the dormitory that belongs to Howard Murr should be
on this wall, which I think is actually going to
be the east wall, and it's from where you are.
You'd have to go down to the end. There's like
an intersect, like a t intersection, and there's a bunch
of actual rooms rather than cubes. You would turn right
and then you would turn left at the end and
then up right after that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I was gonna I was gonna say, since we'll
do a straight shot to the middle here and then
turn and go go up and get there. Yeah.
Speaker 4: So I mean it's no problem to maneuver the motorcycle
in you're as you're driving down that main drag, there's
a guy that's coming out. He comes out, he steps
out of his office and he's got like a like
a sheaf of papers, and like as you're going by,
like he's like whoa, and he like jumps back into
the office he stepped out of and he like launches
them into the air, and you drive by and it's
like trails in your wake, and you rip around the corner,
you kind of drift a little bit, and there's another
camera that's looking at you, and it turns and it
follows you. And there's a security desk down here, and
there's a guy that's sitting at it and he stands
up and he's one of those areas, these night errant dudes.
He's got the cool black arm or with the yellow
visored helmet and like that dude like springs up from
the seat and you see him like scrambling looking around,
trying to grab his gun. And you rip around the turn,
and there's at the end of this also there's like
a glass glass wall. It's like four panels of glass.
There's a glass door, and there's a big old conference
table in there with a bunch of high backed chairs.
They're all gray and they're on wheels, and there's there's
a couple of dudes that are in there and they're
discussing something and they see you as you rip around
the corner, and you see all of them, like there's
like four dudes in there, and they all turn and
look at you at once, and then as you like
continue to rip by. You see them like turn back
and then start discussing what they're talking about anyway, and
you go around the corner and you make it through
that t intersection and again you fishtail out and you
slam the back of your armored motorcycle into one of
these walls. You ricochet off and you regain control. Pop
another fucking sick wheeling, and you come around and you
get to where that that dormitory is. There's a door
and it's closed, and it's like it's a door that's
it's slides. It doesn't like like like pivot, It slides
like fucking star trek right, and it's got a badge
on it, a little placard and it says like, you know,
dorm thirteen F and you know that thirteen half is
the right one.
Speaker 2: Yep. I will do a sick like half circle burnout
so that when I stop the bike, the back end
with Sarah is right next to the door, so she
can get to it. And then I'll be like CV's
in there, and uh, you know, get ready to go
back around the corner and deal with that security guarden.
Speaker 4: She disengages from the motorcycle, she hops off of it,
and you know everything's cool.
Speaker 2: Like she doesn't like tell her keep keep her, keep
her spirit with her that she summoned.
Speaker 4: She she gives you like a quick nod and like
you can see, like she's got the gas mask on.
You can see her eyes through like the little like
circular lenses on the gas mask, and she gives you
a wink and uh and like a little like fucking
half assed little two fingers salute as she moves to
the door. And she gets to the door and you
see her like trying to open it, and then you
see her starting to like throw her shoulder into it
and like pounding on it. And this guy comes around
and he's got his gun and he pulls it up
and it's an Aris Alfa assault rifle because you know
Aris dudes are gonna use Aries gear. It's in the contract.
It's Freeze.
Speaker 2: Is that the security guard that's coming around the corner.
Speaker 4: Yeah, oh, I got.
Speaker 2: A fucking gift for him.
Speaker 4: Okay, So here's what's gonna happen real fast. I'm gonna
make a quick old initiative once I find where my
dudes are in my journal. Uh goons, Yeah, these listens
under goons there he is all right, so let me
get a we're gonna roll initiative. We're gonna do an
initiative INITIATI off.
Speaker 2: To see higher than him.
Speaker 4: I'm sure. I'm sure you've got a crazy high.
Speaker 3: Initiative, right, you got like four defixed.
Speaker 4: One. All right, let's see he might be able to
beat you. Yeah, he's got twelve. Uh so he can't
beat you. Uh So he comes around the corner and
he's like, you're not allowed to have a motorcycle in here.
And you know he's got the gun up. This is
an Aries. Oh no, I'm sorry, this guy's got an
Aries predator. It's a handgun. Not as cool. So let
me drag him out here so I can get him
attached to his initiative roll uh blamou So, yeah, his
initiative is a twelve and he's got a an Aries predator.
This is a heavy pistol, and he brings it up
and he pointed at you. He's like, you're not allowed
to have motorcycles.
Speaker 2: I don't even let him stop to I don't even
let him finish. And uh with my newly acquired gunner
skill opening up with the AK ninety seven filled with
the shade filled capsule bullets. Fuck this guy and fuck
aries hardcore.
Speaker 7: Oh I know what that does. He's gonna have a trip.
Speaker 2: You have a.
Speaker 3: Really bad time.
Speaker 4: He's going, he's going somewhere he's never been before. Boy.
Speaker 2: But now, I've never used an automatic weapon before, So
how does this work? All right?
Speaker 4: So, so first off, I would suggest, since you're using
incredibly expensive ammunition, do tell me how to live my life.
All right, if you want to go, if you want
to do it.
Speaker 2: I bought thirty bullets, okay, and I can buy more
if I want it.
Speaker 4: You can't buy more right now.
Speaker 2: That's for that one gun show.
Speaker 4: Okay, Well what are you doing? Are you doing like
a burst fire? You're doing a full auto I'm asking.
Speaker 2: I don't know how that works. That's why I'm asking.
Speaker 4: Okay. So the basically the way it works out is
the more bullets that you spit out in one action,
the bigger penalty they will take their defense pool. You have,
every bullet that comes out of the gun without you
doing some kind of action in between counts as recoil,
so you'll have a recoil compensation bonus based off of
the weapon as well as strength. And if there's any
kind of modifier, So like a mount because there's a mounted.
Speaker 2: Weapon, right, it's mounted on the bike. Yeah.
Speaker 4: Yeah, So that like there's a huge recoil compensation bonus
that will deduct from the recoil penalty generated by firing
more bullets. So basically what it means is that you
can fire off more stuff to make his defense roll lower,
but it costs you more money.
Speaker 1: Well, money's relevant at this point. This is the best
investment I've.
Speaker 4: Ever must be nice.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah, So do I choose how many bullets I want
to shoot or is there a set number correction?
Speaker 4: Yeah? So you can do. You can do a burst fire,
which is three. There's a short burst I think it's six,
and then there's like a full auto burst I think
is like ten. And then you can do suppressive fire,
which I think is twenty. The suppressive fire won't do
direct damage, but it will make it so that they
have no no, no, no, we don't need Okay, I'll
shut the fuck up.
Speaker 2: Yeah okay, And then does he get a negative for
each bullet that's fired?
Speaker 1: Is that how it works?
Speaker 4: So it is a each bullet after the first? Is that?
Is that how that shakes out? Uh?
Speaker 7: Certainly in full position.
Speaker 4: Yes, okay, it's you sound real conved. It's something like
that at least, so yes, okay, yeah, uh dude, thank
you hey again, thank you for being here, and thank
you for being like so learned.
Speaker 2: All right, I think I think we'll just start with
the small one, the small burst with three bullets.
Speaker 4: Okay, so just a burst? How that works?
Speaker 2: Yeah, if we need to spend more, we got thirty
one initiatives, so we can shoot them munple of times
or something.
Speaker 4: You're right, You're right. You could shoot him up a
lot of.
Speaker 3: Time, two or three times before he gets to eack.
Feels good?
Speaker 1: So yeah, do I just do uh? Just roll the attack?
Speaker 4: Uh? Yeah, you'll roll the attack in your recoil comp
is gonna be enough that you don't take any kind
of penalties on it. So make it the attack using gunnery,
and I will roll his defense with a minus I
think minus two.
Speaker 2: Should I be rolling on my vehicles tab?
Speaker 1: Or should I just make a.
Speaker 4: I think your vehicle tab should have a gunnery thing
built into it?
Speaker 1: Do I do simple or complex for firing the web?
Speaker 4: Complex?
Speaker 2: Okay? And see what happens.
Speaker 3: I don't know if that was right, but no no
damage value, so maybe not the.
Speaker 4: Burst fire known as b F.
Speaker 2: I didn't oh you know what, I I don't know
if these actually do damage because we're just shooting like
gas bullets.
Speaker 4: Yeah, but okay, so okay, so a complex complex pardon me,
complex is a long burst which uses up six round
and you know what, Brittian, you were on the money.
So six round spent is a negative five defense modifier. Hey,
that makes a lot of sense because you know, every
bullet that comes at you you get a minus one,
just like if you're suffering multiple attacks. So hey, use
guys that designed that. I see what you did there
and makes sense.
Speaker 2: Good job is simple the three rounds that it's simple.
Speaker 4: As the three rounder.
Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, shall we roll?
Speaker 4: Uh No, it's not going to change this. It's just
uh you know, uh, you decide right now, do you
want to use your whole turn and have a bigger
penalty to the guy or just use half the turn
and do a smaller penalty.
Speaker 2: Just half the turn right now?
Speaker 4: Okay? Cool? So let's get his defense role in here
with a situational modifier a minus two. You got three
nethods because they didn't put a space in there, and
so then he said, those definitely hit him. He takes
I'll whop in three damage, He's gonna roll to soaky
and he probably isn't gonna be hurt by it. He
takes no damage. That's fine. But the but the issue
is that these contain shade, and shade is like an error, uh,
an inhalation vector drug that is really good at ruining
someone's day. So let's see Chad a run fifth edition
Shade out of the.
Speaker 2: You're supposed to have a damage value.
Speaker 3: I don't know about the bullets, but shade doesn't do damage.
Speaker 4: Itself, doesn't like those rounds. Those rounds do a little
bit damage. It's it's like, yeah, you're still getting It's
like yeah, it's like except like a little bit more serious.
So there's a thing. There's a thing called simunition. I
don't know if you guys have heard of this. It's
a bullet, but instead of having lead at the end,
it's got like a paintball at the end of it.
So like you can put simmunition into like a real
gun and it'll fire and it shoots at paintballs, but
it hurts like a motherfucker. So, uh, we're gonna it's
I know, we're like, just I'm going to derail for
just a moment. I used to play a lot of
air soft. I was on an airsoft team because those existed,
and I did this event where we went we went
to it was an old retirement home that had been
abandoned that I guess was rented out in something and
I was training for. Yeah, there's like a nearby as
a town called I think it's like Fox River Grove
has a Special Response team basically a swat team, right,
And so this whole event, like I gave I think
I paid like fifty bucks, and me and a bunch
of my buddies for my team got to go out
and do training with the special Response team where they're
going in and doing like terrorist response action against a
bunch of kids using airsoft guns. So they're getting actual training,
and I get to, you know, I have fun shooting
little bebies at SWAT team guys while they're firing real
MP fives that have simmunition in them. And dude, it
was a blast. And I never ever want to be
on the receiving end of a fucking special Response team
ever ever.
Speaker 6: In real life that sounds like one of the coolest
things I've ever heard.
Speaker 2: Honest, it was so cool.
Speaker 4: They were all there was also like simulated traffic stops
and they had like these bizarre scenarios. And one of
the scenarios, I was supposed to be a deaf guy,
and so like we stopped the fake car and we
got it. Well it was a real car, but they
weren't actually moving, you know, they were a part. But
like I got out and they're all like, you know,
turn around, put your hands on your head, and like
I just had to stand there like an idiot. And
then the dude shot me in the neck and they're
like the the guy that's running the thing is like, congratulations,
you shot a deaf guy. And then and then the
cop goes whoops and then everybody laughs and I'm.
Speaker 3: Like, oh, just like yeah, pretty American.
Speaker 4: So that was cool. Yeah. Yeah. So anyhow, let's get
back to the game, right because we only have a
little bit of time left here. Where's the rules on shade.
I sent that to you guys earlier.
Speaker 3: It's an immediate effect. It h like d six hours
forced out of your body into astral production, and if
you have magic, you can then like do a spirit
guide kind of situation.
Speaker 4: So this I don't know what that means. But this
guy does not have a magic attribute. This guy is
just a straight up regular security cap. So yeah, I
think he gets to make a test against this, right,
he gets to make like some sort of body.
Speaker 3: I don't think.
Speaker 4: Well, there should be there should be like a like
a rating on the like for him to try to resist.
Speaker 3: Let mean, look it up real quick.
Speaker 7: I think they intended this one as a combat drug. Such.
Speaker 4: I don't think so, I really don't.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's such, you be them.
Speaker 4: Yeah, so well there's I see addiction ratings and addiction threshold.
Speaker 3: Okay, shade inhalation immediate essence plus one D six hours
max twelve psychological it is a addiction raading seven.
Speaker 4: Oh jeez, all right, so.
Speaker 3: Yeah, well don't don't work for arias hardcore addiction threshold
three forces astral projection if you can already project adoration
to your normal limit. If you have a spirit guide
or initiate, you can access the metaplanes ten stun user
ties if they don't turn to their bodies before duration ends.
Six restriction and it's in uh chrome flesh, Yeah, chrome flesh.
Speaker 4: Cool?
Speaker 3: Weird that the magic drug is in chrome flesh or not. Yeah, okay, whatever, guys,
I won't make this ship just you know organized it.
Speaker 4: I didn't do this. I just got here, all right.
So yeah so that wow. So ten stun, well, the
ten stun is after it at so that's after the duration.
So that's a crash effect. So he doesn't suffer the
ten stunt until he slams back into his body in
uh a D six hours Jesus hours. Okay, well D
six plus essence hours, So a D six plus this
guy's essence is a whopping uh I think like five
something or maybe.
Speaker 1: Even of his misery.
Speaker 3: Please just all.
Speaker 4: Right, So, uh, it doesn't matter. It really doesn't matter
if you guys are in here for more than you
hit this dude with this bullet and he's like, he's
like ah and then like a bunch of like crazy
purple smoke comes out of his chest where you hit
him with the bullet, and he's like and then you
see his body just drop just completely, just he just
like falls over and uh this purple.
Speaker 2: Guys, you guys hear knuckles over.
Speaker 1: The cops.
Speaker 3: Do that one more time.
Speaker 4: So yeah, starts spreading out and like he's he's like
fucking he's out, he's done. You don't see it, but
his soul leaves his body at this point, and that's
just massage.
Speaker 3: Knuckles, Like, I take it the shades working.
Speaker 4: That's never happened before for this guy. So good, good
fucking luck to him. So we're gonna clear this initiative
track because there's nothing he can do about that. But yeah,
you hit him and he just like fucking blacks out.
Speaker 3: Uh, And then you know, she's something method with me
and Knuckles. We can go for people take shame.
Speaker 4: Yeah. So, so she's she's banging on this door and
she finally manages to get it open. She like hits
it hard enough that it kind of comes a little
bit loose. She like digs her fingers in and slides it.
It's empty. There's no one in there. You guys are downstairs.
You guys uh in the excuse me this, I'm uh burpie,
I'm sorry. Everybody that's listened to this, I'm sorry. I'm
so sorry. I'm so sorry. But you guys are Oh well,
never mind, then forget I said anything. So you guys
are in the lower level. You guys are at Lab
one forty six. His list is Howard Murr's lab. He's
not in there. He's not there. I'm in the dorm.
Speaker 3: I'm using one of my like services, telling my spirit
to find Howard Murr.
Speaker 4: So this is a beast.
Speaker 6: Spirit still sulously yeah, still the Electro Boston Terrier, the
Boston Dynamic Terrier.
Speaker 4: So it uh it appears to you. It appears to you.
It manifests halfway, so like you see this thing half tangible.
It's like a translucent kind of uh ghosty kind of appearance,
and like it shimmers into existence with a crackling blue
energy and it uh you give it the command, and
it's it sits as soon as it fully kind of
appears to you, and it sits. You give it the command,
and the thing's little little adorable Bostonterier nub is like
wagon and it uh it uh it goes like woof, woof,
and then it trying kind of like uh prance is
off as it dematerializes to try to find the guy.
It's uh not long before the thing reappears to you,
and it does one of those like pointer poses where
it stops and it's got the one leg up and
it's like staring in a certain direction. Yeah, and it's
it's yeah, it's pointing you where you would go. Even
though that's not a thing that Boston Terriers do. They're
not like a pointer breed, but like it does that anyway,
my dog kind of does that. I got a Bostonia
by the way, spoilers everybody, I got a Boston Terrier
at home. He's really fucking big. Because we did a
DNA test, right, because you can get those for dogs now.
It's like it's like, uh, like a you know, twenty
three in me except for dogs, and found out that
he's one eighth Great Dane. So somebody was really ambitious
one of his grandparents. Yeah, dude, Oh, I'm hoping there
was the mom because like yoicks, but uh would be rough.
Oh receiving that would be rough. I mean, I get it.
Rough dog joke. Oh yeah, joke on my previous dog.
I'm already anyhow, anyhow, you know. Yeah, So so anyhow,
my dog, he's big. He's real big. They're supposed get
up like twenty eight pounds. He's like thirty. He's I
think he's like forty pounds. He's big. He's like a
giant fucking boss Terry. It's great. He's fantastic. Anyhow, his
Boston Terrier is adorable. I forgot what he was saying.
I've been drinking. But this dog guides you in the
right direction. Yeah, my dog does that. When he sees
a bunny. He'll stop for a moment and point and
I'm like, I don't think you're supposed to do that,
and then he runs like an idiot, and then it
hits the end of the line and then like does
like a flip. But so you guys know where the
direction to go. And uh, he's pointing.
Speaker 6: Down the base maybe secret basement, top secrets, underground layer.
Speaker 3: So I will calm our homies upstairs. Uh he is
somewhere down below us. We're gonna go look for him now,
I guess. And so I will hopefully have my cool
spirit guide.
Speaker 7: I'm following.
Speaker 4: You follow It's it's like it's like playing Fable too.
Speaker 3: You follow the dog, and but I've got two gas
grenades filled with shade in my fucking hands.
Speaker 4: That's basically the same thing as playing for So you
you follow the dog, and you head down the stairs,
and stairs lead you down to the lower level, the
lower level, which we're going to transition to now. Also,
you've gotten this message up there on the third floor
that they're headed and down. Here's can you guys see
this okay? Or is this I'm not sure if it's
dark or if.
Speaker 7: It's it's a little black.
Speaker 4: Okay, Chris, everything is black, I know.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm being triggered, right, Okay.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that that fixed it?
Speaker 4: Okay. So oh, I wasn't supposed to reveal the interior
of the buildings. That's fine whatever, who cares. But I mean,
what's a little what's a little spoiler between friends? So
you guys head down and uh, you are going to
come out of a thing here and there's a bunch
of you know, parking space. Don't like the parking spaces
aren't accurate. There's not a bunch of like tanker trucks.
There's a bunch of like cars.
Speaker 3: Parked in here.
Speaker 4: And you come down, there's a bunch of cars parked
and some cargo kind of stuff. And there's two buildings.
There's a this is instead of being like it looks
like a door or something like that, it's one of
those those like robot arm gates that go up and
down when you you know, you go through like a
parking garage and there's like a machine on the side
that'll take a ticket. And there's two buildings, so one
of them, you know, this building over here that's on
the western part is the security building. And you guys
come out here on the eastern building, which is like
a stairwell that goes up to the upper level where
you were, so floor two and then three and maybe
even four. But there's a stairwell that goes down underground
to a lower level that you guys had no idea
even existed until just now.
Speaker 3: I look at my pointer dog Boston Terrier king named Snowflake, like, hey, Snowflake,
where is he?
Speaker 4: And he bounds down the hall towards the stairs that
go down.
Speaker 3: Hey, guys, he's uh, actually even lower. Once you get
to the parking garage, there's a stairway that goes down,
go down on it. Should we wait and group up
with the others?
Speaker 1: Be right there.
Speaker 4: So you start, you you haul ass with your motorcycle
and like that, you drive through the purple gas and
you got your gas mask on, and Sarah Murr's got
her gas mask on, and you guys, like, you know,
it's really super cool as you you like crest through
the purple gas with your motorcycle and like rip through it,
and it like swirls behind you as you go, and
you like burst through the other side of it, and uh,
it's super cool. It's super trust me, it's super cool.
And you go and you get back to the stairs
and you like kind of burn a little bit to
the side, and you drift down the stairs and you
go and like it's a bumpy ride, and she's hanging
on to you, and like just as she's trying to
hold on tight, she has to kind of like lean
in and like hugs her body up against yours and
you can feel like her embrace on your back, and
it reminds you. You get a flashback to the time
that you were dating that girl in high school and
she hugs you from behind and you can feel her
boobs on the back of the neck.
Speaker 12: Flashback and you and you and you you you have
an embarrassing moment while her boobs touched the back of
your neck and in high school, and you don't want
to talk about it, but.
Speaker 4: You remember it clearly. And then you make it down
the stairs and you make it down another set of
stairs and another set of stairs. All of you together
arrive in the lower level of gore Tees Alchemical the
door and you through the door. I'm gonna go ahead
and assume you blast the door open using like a
rad like grenade from your motorcycle and it blows open
and inside there's this facility that you did not expect
and based off of the information that turbo lasers able
to provide to you, this wasn't here two months ago.
There's no records of this. There's no no, no, what
do you call this? No no permits to do any
kind of underground work, and it's never been there before.
These guys did this illegally make.
Speaker 3: This is a company black site.
Speaker 2: They can't do.
Speaker 1: That's against the law.
Speaker 4: It's impossible, can't be done.
Speaker 3: What happens when a company breaks the law? Do they
like pay texas or fines or do they just get
to get away with it?
Speaker 7: That's Mike Lowells.
Speaker 1: Company like Microsoft damn getting away with ship tonight.
Speaker 4: The door blows open and reveals a giant open area.
The walls are plated with some sort of metal plating,
and there's shuttered doorways, and the lights overhead are like
a like a cool blue neon and a hall stretches
on and on diverges at the end and the T
type intersection. There's a couple of corridors a branch off
before that. And you get there and you know, you
know you're head in the right direction because your electrode
dog friend is pointing this way. He stops and he points.
The motorcycle pulls up behind you, just in time for
you guys all unit at once as we stop and
wait for next week.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Nice, that went really well.
Speaker 3: The fucking you know, motorcycle crash get to the rock
long floor. But that's okay, worse.
Speaker 2: You coulda been much worse.

Speaker 6: I'm surprised, Knuckles he didn't just you just didn't waste him.
Speaker 2: You know, what's he gonna do?
Speaker 3: I mean, probably gonna die unawakened person trying to find
their body in the astral plane.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that sounds awful. Do the man of mercy. You
got time for that man, you know, as hardcore he is.
Speaker 1: To me, everybody is there.
Speaker 6: You could have literally you could have literally just put
like a pillow over his face and just let him stuff.
Speaker 2: Okay, it's still.
