[17:30] <&Hebizuka> *Welcome back to the Mazes, Tasia. You have visited 333 rooms. The next special room is at the 348th. You are currently feeling healthy, with minor increased libido. Your allies Telma and Lauren seem to be both OK as well. Only one door ahead (!mrooms1), due to special circumstances.* [17:32] * Tasia will put a MkII frag grenade on her belt (and turn off the laser sight on Lightning, if it's still on)... [17:33] <&Hebizuka> *Lightning's AN/PEQ-5 laser sight is now off.* [17:33] <Tasia> !mrooms1 [17:33] <&Hebizuka> [ Tasia ] Unique door: 5913 - Roomstyle: 1 [17:34] * Tasia heads forward. [17:34] <&Hebizuka> *Did not find a MkII grenade in the inventory.* [17:34] <Tasia> I thought I had one... do I have something else in spare weapons besides C4? [17:36] <&Hebizuka> *I don't see anything but C4 charges. Lauren however, has two MkII grenades equipped.* [17:36] <Tasia> Ok, I'll equip a C4 then. [17:37] <&Hebizuka> *C4 charges remaining in Pack/Main: 3.* [17:37] <&Hebizuka> [Pack/Main] 97.44/115 [17:37] <&Hebizuka> *Moving forwards now...* [17:40] <&Hebizuka> *You and your two allies barge inside Lance's bionics workshop!* [17:41] <Tasia> "Ah, this seems like a lucky meeting." [17:42] <~SU_Tempest> [Lance] Ah! Tasia! My friend. I was expecting your visit. [17:43] <~SU_Tempest> [Lance] AS IT WOULD TURN OUT, MY GENIUS HAS STRUCK YET AGAIN. I have developed a NEW GENERATION of augmentations, and everyone in the Mazes who is currently augmented, is entitled to upgrade! Please, my friend, let me remove your old ones. These implants are no longer any good. [17:44] <Tasia> "As long as you'll give me something better - I can pay, you know." [17:44] <Tasia> "At least, I can NOW." [17:44] <~SU_Tempest> [Lance] I INSIST NOT. You are entitled to a FREE replacement towards new-generation equivalents. Though while you're here with me, I will accept your patronage if you want to buy more... [17:45] <&Hebizuka> *Removal of the old augmentations is free. You have also been credited with 1500 P$ on your Bionics Workshop credit.* [17:47] <Tasia> "I'd like to see your new list of items.... this might take a while to plan out." [17:48] <&Hebizuka> *A full list of augmentations is available here: http://mazeworld.net/wiki/Bionics* [17:48] <Tasia> "Back in my old life, I'd never gone in for much of anything with bionics - always had something more pressing to spend money on, and besides, if you go broke then maintenance on them is a real bitch." [17:49] <~SU_Tempest> [Lance] Feel free to browse the list, my friend. If you desire to have something equivalent to your old setup, I may install a Dermal Armor base, the Daemon Skin augmentation and a free ENBoost lv1, free of charge. [17:49] <~SU_Tempest> [Lance] For everything else, don't hesitate to ask... [17:49] * Tasia selects the base bionics packages: both legs, cranium, eyes, and dermal (which is getting tossed in free) [17:51] <Tasia> "Yes, I'll keep the aug setup that I already have - I'm just intending to add a /lot/ to it." [17:52] <Tasia> "These should set me at 110 power, right? And the dermal armor consumes 10 of that?" [17:54] <~SU_Tempest> [Lance] Let me check... You will have a Power Pool of 110 indeed. [17:55] <Tasia> "Okay, so, for the cranial/brain augs, I'd like to get... Augmented sensorial awareness and combat sensorial enhancement, plus the hacking level 3 aug. That's 50 of the 100 left." [17:57] <Tasia> "Sharp vision enhancement 1 for my eyes, Ninja Speed 2 on the legs, that's another 40, right? So 10 ppoints to spare..." [17:58] <~SU_Tempest> *Lance scribbles on a notepad, as if he was a waiter taking your order.* [17:58] <Tasia> "What's the total cost so far?" [18:01] <Tasia> "Let's add a chest platform into the mix too, a level 1 life support system and tissue damage resistance upgrade there too." [18:04] <&Hebizuka> =BUY= [18:04] <&Hebizuka> Base - Chest Augmentation Platform - 2000 P$ [18:04] <&Hebizuka> Base - Bionic Leg x2 - 2500 P$ [18:04] <&Hebizuka> Base - Brainpower Cerebral Enhancement platform - 500 P$ [18:04] <&Hebizuka> Base - Bionic Eyes - 1000 P$ [18:04] <&Hebizuka> Base - Dermal Armor platform - Free [18:04] <&Hebizuka> Aug - Reptile Skin + Daemon Skin - Free [18:04] <&Hebizuka> Aug - Augmented sensorial awareness - 550 P$ [18:04] <&Hebizuka> Aug - Combat sensorial enhancement - 2750 P$ [18:04] <&Hebizuka> Aug - HX-1337 Hacking device lv1 + lv2 + lv3 - 5300 P$ [18:04] <&Hebizuka> Aug - Sharp Vision lv1 - 2200 P$ [18:04] <&Hebizuka> Aug - Ninja Speed lv1 + lv2 - 1650 P$ [18:04] <&Hebizuka> Aug - Body tissue damage resistance lv1 - 1100 P$ [18:04] <&Hebizuka> Aug - Guardian LSS lv1 - 1100 P$ [18:04] <&Hebizuka> Extra - ENBoost lv1 - Free [18:04] <&Hebizuka> =POWER POOL= [18:04] <&Hebizuka> The chosen bases will increase your Power Pool to 150 points. [18:04] <&Hebizuka> The chosen augmentations will take up 110 PP. [18:04] <&Hebizuka> You will have 40 PP unassigned after the operation. [18:04] <&Hebizuka> =TOTAL due to shop: 20650 P$= [18:05] <~SU_Tempest> *Lauren flips out when hearing Lance announce the total cost.* [18:05] <~SU_Tempest> [Lauren] ARE YOU FUKKEN SERIOUS? [18:07] <Tasia> "Okay, I guess it's time that I unloaded some valuables..." [18:07] <Tasia> [Valuable] Metal - Platinum bar, 500g ingot - Value 3000-12000 P$ (1d9001+2999) - [Quantity: 3] [18:07] <Tasia> [Valuable] Metal - Scandium bar, 500g ingot - Value 900-3500 P$ (1d2601+899) - [Quantity: 2] [18:07] <Tasia> [Valuable] Metal - Gold bar, 500g ingot - Value 1000-4000 P$ (1d3001+999) - [Quantity: 2] [18:07] <Tasia> [Valuable] Metal - Palladium bar, 500g ingot - Value 1500-6500 P$ (1d5001+1499) - [Quantity: 2] [18:08] * Tasia sets these all down to be appraised. "If these aren't enough, I can try some gems too." [18:10] <~SU_Tempest> *Lance's eyes are shinier than a cute animu grill, right now.* [18:10] <~SU_Tempest> [Lance] Are you... Are you sure? My friend, this is an enormous amount of money. [18:11] <Tasia> "Well, I have a bank account for whichever way the excess falls. I'm sure." [18:12] <Tasia> "I put in a lot of fighting for my share of the wealth, and this way maybe I can at least hang on to what's left over for a while." [18:13] <Tasia> "Besides, better to be poor and alive than rich and too dead to have any fun with it, eh?" [18:14] <~SU_Tempest> [Lance] With what I'm about to install on your body, it's going to take a WHOLE LOT to kill you. [18:15] <~SU_Tempest> *Lance takes the bars of precious metal, and begins appraising them...* [18:15] <Tasia> "My friends might want to get some upgrades too, of course. Can't forget them." [18:16] <~SU_Tempest> [Lauren] Oh err... No thanks. I ain't really into body modding and all that. [18:17] <~SU_Tempest> [Telma] Heh, I could probably get into it... [18:20] <&Hebizuka> =APPRAISAL= [18:20] <&Hebizuka> Platinum bar, 500g: 9725 P$ [18:20] <&Hebizuka> Platinum bar, 500g: 7916 P$ [18:20] <&Hebizuka> Platinum bar, 500g: 3720 P$ [18:20] <&Hebizuka> Scandium bar, 500g: 1141 P$ [18:20] <&Hebizuka> Scandium bar, 500g: 1834 P$ [18:20] <&Hebizuka> Gold bar, 500g: 3804 P$ [18:20] <&Hebizuka> Gold bar, 500g: 2767 P$ [18:20] <&Hebizuka> Palladium bar, 500g: 2278 P$ [18:20] <&Hebizuka> Palladium bar, 500g: 4298 P$ [18:20] <&Hebizuka> TOTAL: 37483 P$ [18:20] <Tasia> "Yey, why not move up to the level 2 life support system?" [18:21] <~SU_Tempest> [Lance] Your decision, my friend. Don't forget I can also save the money you're not spending into credit. [18:21] <Tasia> "...And the ICU smart vision implant and ocular shield." [18:22] <Tasia> "Yes, add those in as well." [18:35] <&Hebizuka> =BUY= [18:35] <&Hebizuka> Base - Chest Augmentation Platform - 2000 P$ [18:35] <&Hebizuka> Base - Bionic Leg x2 - 2500 P$ [18:35] <&Hebizuka> Base - Brainpower Cerebral Enhancement platform - 500 P$ [18:35] <&Hebizuka> Base - Bionic Eyes - 1000 P$ [18:35] <&Hebizuka> Base - Dermal Armor platform - Free [18:35] <&Hebizuka> Aug - Reptile Skin + Daemon Skin - Free [18:35] <&Hebizuka> Aug - Augmented sensorial awareness - 550 P$ [18:35] <&Hebizuka> Aug - Combat sensorial enhancement - 2750 P$ [18:35] <&Hebizuka> Aug - HX-1337 Hacking device lv1 + lv2 + lv3 - 5300 P$ [18:35] <&Hebizuka> Aug - Sharp Vision lv1 - 2200 P$ [18:35] <&Hebizuka> Aug - Ninja Speed lv1 + lv2 - 1650 P$ [18:35] <&Hebizuka> Aug - Body tissue damage resistance lv1 - 1100 P$ [18:35] <&Hebizuka> Aug - Guardian LSS lv1 + lv2 - 3300 P$ [18:35] <&Hebizuka> Aug - Ocular Shield - 550 P$ [18:35] <&Hebizuka> Aug - ICU Smart Vision - 1100 P$ [18:35] <&Hebizuka> Extra - ENBoost lv1 - Free [18:35] <&Hebizuka> =POWER POOL= [18:35] <&Hebizuka> The chosen bases will increase your Power Pool to 125 points.

[18:35] <&Hebizuka> =TOTAL due to shop: 24500 P$= [18:36] <~SU_Tempest> [Lance] Is this correct? [18:36] * Tasia confirms, asking for the change to be sent to her bank account. [18:36] <Tasia> "Yes, it is!" [18:37] <&Hebizuka> *Sold 3 platinum bars, 2 scandium bars, 2 gold bars and 2 palladium bars for 37483 P$.* [18:37] <&Hebizuka> *Purchased 24500 P$ worth of augmentations.* [18:40] <~SU_Tempest> [Lance] I'm afraid you will have to call your bank yourself, if you wish to process the request to move the credit to bank account. [18:40] <&Hebizuka> *12 983 P$ of credit has been wired on bionics workshop credit.* [18:40] <Tasia> "Ah, that's fine, it's no rush I suppose." [18:40] <&Hebizuka> [Pack/Main] 88.44/115 [18:41] <&Hebizuka> [Money] (Credit, bionics workshop) 14483 P$ [18:43] <~SU_Tempest> [Lance] Very well, my friend... Are you ready for the operation? [18:45] <Tasia> "I am indeed!" [18:49] <~SU_Tempest> [Lance] Very well. IT IS TIME. TIME TO IMPROVE YOUR HUMANITY! [18:50] <~SU_Tempest> [Lance] ...I will ask you to strip down and lay down on the operating table. THEN I SHALL TAKE YOU TO THE GATES OF PERFECTION! [19:34] <&Hebizuka> *You wake up after an undetermined amount of time.* [19:35] <&Hebizuka> *Your natural legs are gone, replaced by bionic prosthetics. They feel a little lighter than your original ones. You have the distinct feeling you can think much faster and much more clearly than ever before.* [19:35] <&Hebizuka> *Your eyes, also replaced, provide you with vision clearer and sharper than you could imagine possible. You can focus on any point, and you can distinguish the littlest details, without any effort.* [19:38] <&Hebizuka> *Your chest, fitted with an internal platform, gives you the sensation of being... denser. You can feel your skin is much tougher.* [19:39] <&Hebizuka> *But mostly what you notice is the sharp contrast of your naked body, especially between the sleek metallic white of your legs and feet compared to the natural pigmentation of the rest of your body.* [19:39] <&Hebizuka> *You hardly look human anymore. You are now an augmented human being.* [19:41] <&Hebizuka> *Lance looks upon your body, observing you like he's staring at a work of art. Your allies couldn't resist giving you the glare either. Telma is biting her lower lip... you could swear she wants to jump you. Lauren on the other hand, has a blank stare of curiosity, as if you were an alien creature.* [19:44] <~SU_Tempest> [Telma] Freaking... beautiful. [19:44] <~SU_Tempest> [Lauren] I don't think I ever seen an aug. Much less a naked one. [19:49] <Tasia> "It's quite something, don't you think? It may take a long time for me to get used to this." [19:49] <~SU_Tempest> [Lance] Don't you worry, my friend. YOUR POTENTIAL IS LIMITLESS. [20:00] <&Hebizuka> *You may dress back up and grab your gear again.* [20:01] <&Hebizuka> *There are three doors out.* [20:07] * Tasia does so! [20:07] <Tasia> !mrooms3 [20:07] <&Hebizuka> [ Tasia ] Left door: 4426 - Front door: 3019 - Right door: 6649 - Roomstyle: 468 [20:07] <Tasia> Right door! [21:44] <&Hebizuka> *A regular, featureless room. You spot some ammunition on the floor...* [22:00] * Tasia examines the ammunition~ [22:00] <&Hebizuka> [Ammunition] Crossbow bolt, normal, 1 bolt - Weight: 0.1 [22:00] * Tasia leaves this on the floor. [22:00] <Tasia> !mrooms3 [22:00] <&Hebizuka> [ Tasia ] Left door: 4343 - Front door: 2712 - Right door: 5993 - Roomstyle: 196 [22:01] <Tasia> "I don't have much use for that..." [22:01] <Tasia> "Had a crossbow once, though." [22:01] <Tasia> Front door. [22:03] <~SU_Tempest> [Lauren] Crossbows are kinda cool. I've known this merc once, he loved using 'em too. [22:04] <&Hebizuka> *A bedroom. The room is well-furnished, with a television, a radio, table and chairs, a desk, and a nightstand. All that's missing would be a computer. You spot more ammo on the desk.* [22:05] * Tasia looks at the ammunition, then peeks through the drawers. [22:07] <&Hebizuka> [Ammunition] 12 gauge, buckshot, 5 rounds - Weight: 0.25 [22:07] <&Hebizuka> *The drawers are unfortunately all empty.* [22:07] <Tasia> "Ah, here you go, Lauren." [22:08] * Tasia hands her the buckshot. "Should be good for your gun, right?" [22:08] <~SU_Tempest> [Lauren] Ah, yup! Can't say no to more shells! Gotta keep that baby fed. [22:08] <~SU_Tempest> *She grabs the shells, storing them in her backpack.* [22:09] * Tasia nods. [22:10] <Tasia> !mrooms3 [22:10] <&Hebizuka> [ Tasia ] Left door: 422 - Front door: 2719 - Right door: 4026 - Roomstyle: 517 [22:10] <Tasia> Left door it is. [22:20] <&Hebizuka> *Another regular, featureless room. Still no other creature in sight, but you spot a magazine on the floor...* [22:34] * Tasia examines the magazine... [22:34] <&Hebizuka> [Weapon accessory] Magazine: PPSh-41 71-round drum magazine. Size tier: V.Large ; Weight: 2+0.21 (2.21) - [21/71, 21x HP] [22:35] <Tasia> "Ooh. If we had one of these..." [22:36] <~SU_Tempest> [Telma] This is one big mag... [22:36] <Tasia> "Take it if you want it, I guess." [22:36] <Tasia> "We'd need the gun that goes with it, but still." [22:36] <~SU_Tempest> [Telma] Lemme check... These rounds are kinda weird, I'd say it's for a submachine gun? I'm not sure. [22:36] <~SU_Tempest> [Telma] I'll take it, I'm really curious about it. [22:37] <Tasia> "Arright." [22:37] <Tasia> !mrooms3 [22:37] <&Hebizuka> [ Tasia ] Left door: 6069 - Front door: 2749 - Right door: 6807 - Roomstyle: 364 [22:37] * Tasia will head left as soon as Telma stuffs the magaine away. [22:41] <~SU_Tempest> [Telma] OK, let's go! [22:44] <&Hebizuka> *Another regular, featureless room. A box of ammunition can be spotted in the corner.* [22:45] <Tasia> "Wow, even more ammo." [22:45] <Tasia> Let's examine it. [22:47] <&Hebizuka> [Ammunition] Box of .300 Winchester Magnum, FMJ, 20 rounds - [11/20] - Weight: 0.55 [22:47] <~SU_Tempest> [Telma] Fukken neato. [22:48] <~SU_Tempest> *She grabs that box of ammo, and empties the 11 rounds from it inside her backpack.* [22:48] <~SU_Tempest> *While she's at it, she refills an empty WA2000 magazine with 6 rounds.* [22:50] <Tasia> "Not a bad find, hmmm?" [22:50] * Tasia continues on, then... [22:50] <~SU_Tempest> [Telma] You don't say! [22:50] <Tasia> !mrooms3 [22:50] <&Hebizuka> [ Tasia ] Left door: 4495 - Front door: 1951 - Right door: 5531 - Roomstyle: 181 [22:51] <Tasia> Front door. [22:54] <Tasia> "I've got a notion that we should work on finding some more silencers and quiet guns. At least one for each of us." [22:54] <~SU_Tempest> [Lauren] Are we goin ninja-style? [22:54] <&Hebizuka> *A messy, featureless room, with several dried blood stains on the walls and on the floor. There's a weapon on the ground...* [22:54] <Tasia> "If the situation warrants. Going in berzerker-style with screaming and explosions is never off the table." [22:55] * Tasia peeks at the weapon! [22:55] <~SU_Tempest> [Lauren] Damn right [22:58] <&Hebizuka> [Weapon] Class 3 - Glock 18C machine pistol | 9x19mm Parabellum - Semi/Full | M.Brake | Glock 9mm 33-round mag, +1 | Weight: 3 - [Cond: 24+1/33, 25x FMJ] - Cond: Poor / Clns: Clean [22:59] <Tasia> "Aww man. I say we should fix this thing up." [23:00] <Tasia> "I've got extra bullets for it - it just needs a little TLC...." [23:00] <Tasia> "Speaking of! I've got a feeling that I should clean my rifle a bit." [23:01] <~SU_Tempest> [Lauren] Gotta agree, we should rescue that poor Glock. [23:01] <~SU_Tempest> [Telma] You speak like they're wounded animals. [23:01] * Tasia gets out a gun cleaning kit and proceeds to clean up her ARX. [23:01] <~SU_Tempest> [Lauren] So? We take care of em and they return it by saving our goldarn lives. How's that different from a pet? [23:01] <~SU_Tempest> *Telma goes cross-eyed at Lauren, unable to understand the logic.* [23:02] <&Hebizuka> *You used a GCK on the ARX-160. Cleanliness is now Perfect. You've restored that gun to 100% cleanliness!* [23:02] <&Hebizuka> *The GCK you used has 2 uses left.* [23:02] <Tasia> "I understand what Lauren means." [23:03] <Tasia> "Mmmmph, that smells good." [23:03] * Tasia pops the gun back together and re-equips it. [23:04] <~SU_Tempest> [Lauren] Ah, the glorious smell of gun lubricant. Ain't something that'll go away anytime soo. [23:06] * Tasia hands the Glock to Lauren, it's probably better than her .22 even in its damaged state. [23:07] * Tasia hands over her 9mm ammo can as well... [23:07] <Tasia> [Ammunition] Bulk can of 9x19mm Parabellum, +P, 1000 rounds - [441/1000] - Weight: 4.41 [23:07] <Tasia> "This should keep it fed, once it's been taken to a gunsmith and fixed up..." [23:09] <~SU_Tempest> [Lauren] Oh fuck yea. Screw the .22, haha. Hold on, lemme bag this stuff... [23:18] <&Hebizuka> *Lauren displaces the Ruger to her TW spot, making the Glock 18C her Class 3...* [23:33] <&Hebizuka> *Lauren happily grabs the bulk can of 9mm +P.* [23:34] <~SU_Tempest> [Lauren] Okay, good. Once I exhaust the FMJ crap in there, I'll be switchin to +P. I hope we'll find us some Glock mags, this baby'll munch through ammo like a fat cop on donuts. [23:38] <Tasia> "Noted!" [23:38] <Tasia> !mrooms3 [23:38] <&Hebizuka> [ Tasia ] Left door: 3667 - Front door: 605 - Right door: 6596 - Roomstyle: 365 [23:38] <Tasia> Left door~ [23:42] <&Hebizuka> *A library. The librarian is present, shotgun toting as all librarians are. You spot an odd object on one of the reading tables...* [23:43] * Tasia glances at the object... [23:44] <&Hebizuka> [Item] A HITB battery. A Hebizuka Industrial Tesla Battery, generating power using Tesla technology as used in power rooms. What can it used for? [23:46] <~SU_Tempest> [Telma] That one big battery. [23:48] <Tasia> "Yup! I'm taking it, if nobody minds.." [23:48] <~SU_Tempest> *They both nod.* [23:48] * Tasia slips the battery into her pack. [23:49] <&Hebizuka> [Pack/Main] 85.03/115 [23:49] * Tasia approaches the librarian and calls out a hello. [23:49] <Tasia> "How's business lately?" [23:50] <~SU_Tempest> [Librarian] Rather quiet, as of late. I wonder if my bookshelves scare the people away. You're my first three today... [23:51] <Tasia> "Mmm.Mind if we use the computers?" [23:52] <~SU_Tempest> [Librarian] 10 P$ usage fee per PC. I don't care if all three of you use the same one. [23:53] * Tasia hands over 10 P$. "Thanks." [23:54] * Tasia will do a scan through the news headlines first, then perform a search for information about the Four Horsemen. [23:54] <~SU_Tempest> [Librarian] You can take PC #1. Login is lib3667_pc01 and password is hotpotato026. [23:55] * Tasia nods and heads over there. [23:56] <&Hebizuka> *You've accessed PC #1 via legitimate login and password, then opened the MazeNet browser.* [23:56] <&Hebizuka> *Which news outlet do you want to consult?* >The Human News Network >Mazes Broadcasting Company >Youkai World News >Kitsune News [23:57] <Tasia> MBC first. [23:58] <&Hebizuka> [MBC headlines] Small team makes unprecedented archeological discovery and finds huge treasure [23:59] <&Hebizuka> *Read article?* [00:00] <Tasia> Yep! [00:02] <&Hebizuka> [MBC] A small team composed of Prisca de Stilcore, librarian, and Marcus McBride, archaeologist, has, with the help of unnamed associates, uncovered the tomb of King Maratuxa, the last leader of Beta Era 4, a time period in the Mazes which took place between roughly 2600 and 2300 years ago. [00:03] * Tasia scrolls down... [00:04] <&Hebizuka> [MBC] The tomb of the King was located in a previously uncharted sector of the Mazes, and according to ancient documents the team had studied, it was rumored to contain a large treasure. Librarian and archaeologist united their forces, one motivated by the historical significance, the other by wanting to make one last discovery, and both by the large riches waiting for them. [00:05] <&Hebizuka> [MBC] As it would turn out, a massive treasure, the value of which has been estimated to be well over 125000 Parallars, was discovered, along with the preserved remains of the King, in an almost untouched mortuary chamber. The area has since then been secured as a historical treasure. [00:06] <Tasia> "Huh, how about that. I wonder who the lucky bastards were." [00:06] * Tasia flips over to Kitsune News on a whim to see what they're saying. [00:08] <&Hebizuka> [Kitsune News headlines] Human team makes major archeological discovery [00:08] <&Hebizuka> *Read article?* [00:09] <Tasia> Mmm, I'll pass if it's more of the same. [00:10] <&Hebizuka> *The article seems to have more of a skeptical slant, but essentially explains the same story.* [00:11] * Tasia goes to search for lore aout the Horsemen. [00:15] <&Hebizuka> *Strangely, Search returns nothing on the Four Horsemen.* [00:15] <&Hebizuka> *They seem to be completely unknown, at least according to MazeNet. This may or may not be worrisome.* [00:17] <Tasia> "Iiinteresting." [00:18] <Tasia> "Does anyone else have suggestions?" [00:18] <~SU_Tempest> [Telma] That we're fucked and we woke up ancient gods of destruction? [00:18] <~SU_Tempest> [Lauren] I know a few shrine maidens who'd skin you alive for saying that. [00:19] <Tasia> "Maybe - or maybe they're something else. I guess we'll see, eh?" [00:19] <Tasia> "I'd hesitate to call them 'gods' so quickly." [00:20] <~SU_Tempest> [Lauren] Well if it's anything less, I ain't afraid. [00:21] <Tasia> "The suggestion that they're killable indicates that they're rather small gods, if gods they are." [00:22] <Tasia> "And if they're killable, then we can beat them." [00:22] <~SU_Tempest> [Lauren] Personally I ain't got nothin to lose. I'm a broke-ass merc. So yeah, I'm down. [00:22] <~SU_Tempest> [Telma] I really wish I had your attitude... [00:23] <Tasia> "Hey, you're not broke anymore." [00:23] <~SU_Tempest> [Lauren] Well yeah, but I'm still bound to a contract with ya, ain't I? Not that I wanna die, but I ain't scared of the possibility. [00:25] * Tasia shrugs and logs off of the comp. "Suit yourself. I'm not going to force you do do anything that you feel is out of your league, you know - my approach here is to get you into the league you need to be in, if I can, but I can't ask anyone to die for me."

[00:30] <~SU_Tempest> [Telma] And I'm sticking with you because... Well. I don't know. I have nowhere else, and besides, it's too late to quit now, so might as well go on til the end. [00:31] <Tasia> "Mmmmmm." Tasia feels a little uncomfortable with their declarations of loyalty to the end, knowing what that means firsthand... [00:31] <Tasia> "I suggest we not worry about this until the time comes. It doesn't rest easy on the mind." [00:33] <~SU_Tempest> [Lauren] Aye aye. Less worryin', more doin'.
