I don't know how I'm going to do it, but I need to make a plan.
I can look around my room here, although I've combed it all over before. Maybe I can wait for a nurse to come by and get some information, or try to get out and talk to one of my friends.

what's your daily schedule? If we know your routine we could plan to make an escape when security is the lowest.

Tell us a bit about yourself first. What's your name, why you in here, ect..

What about the layout of the facility? How well do you know it?

Why don't you look around your room while you wait for a nurse to come by. How would you talk to your friends, are you able to sneak out of your room already? Do they want to leave too?

Do you think you could overpower a nurse? Whats keeping you here? Are the doors locked, guarded, need a keycard?

>>711977
Show us what your room looks like, tell us what they usually do to you. And a name would be nice.

Are the wings normal for you, or the result of experiments? (You're more a lab fairy than a lab rat).

what is that brown cabinet next to you

Aw, c'mon, science is important! If you're a lab rat you have a duty to stay there until the experiment is over.

Are you a fairy?

Check the drawers and prepare yourself. We'd like a list of your skills and abilities.

They call me 011, but my friends call me Molly. Sometimes I write it like M011y, because thats kind of cool.
And I didn't do anything to get send in here, if that's what you mean. I'm in here because I'm a faerie, and they want to experiment. Simple.

>>Are the wings normal for you, or the result of experiments?

My wings used to be normal, but...let's just say I tend to be 'uncooperative' with the staff here.

This is about all I know of the place. I have to go to the dining hall for meals once a day, and I could try the nurse's station to get permission to go to the common area for good behavior. I would see other people in both places.

I KNOW I could overpower a nurse. If I even flash my teeth they'd back off.
Problem is, there's a shitton of them, and the station is right outside my room. The doors are all keycard locked, and as an added bonus, I can't touch the metal with my bare hands. Faerie perks.

There are only 'approved items' in my drawers, which is to say jack shit. More stupid hospital robes and a couple towels.
As for skills, I know I have a high pain tolerance. Anything else is kind of up in the air; you'd have to be more specific.

>>what's your daily schedule? If we know your routine we could plan to make an escape when security is the lowest.

I know about as much about that as I do the floor plan. I know I eat once a day at the dining hall, if I've behaved, but there are no clocks in here, so I don't know when it is.

could you touch the doors if you put towels or something on your hands so you don't touch them directly? Either way I'd say you'd have a better chance to run if you could get into the dinning hall or the common area.

>>712005
Is it wrong that I have a fearboner? Okay, what do they have, as far as defensive equipment? also Is this facility legal or is this top secret shit? and what are fae's status socially?

How strong are you? How fast are you? Can you fly with those wings? We are familiar with the abilities of an average mundane human; in what ways, if any, do your abilities diverge from that, if you know?

Could you, for instance, wrap towels around your hands and pull the bars out of the wall? Or go invisible to steal a keycard?

Any stealth or physical abilities you have would be useful in getting you out. Also are you strong enough to rip the towels? If you tear them into strips and wrap them around your hands like makeshift gloves would that protect you from the metal?

Can you do any faerie magic?

I know they have a ton of surgical equipment in here, and sometimes I see guards with tasers, but no guns. I don't think they want to damage the test subjects.
The Lab is run by the government, but it's pretty remote--I don't know if it's a secret or not, and I've been in here too long to know the social status of fae. I know creatures generally aren't treated kindly, but that's it.

Flying is out of the question. I was shit at it before my wings got shredded, and now they can't support my weight. There's only one faerie here who can still fly, I think. I could fly with magic, maybe, but that's also out of the question right now.

I only possess basic magical ability in the Lab: I can heal minor wounds, communicate telepathically with other creatures close by, use glamour to conceal my faerie features, and move small objects short distances without touching them.
Those are the only things I know I can do for a fact, trying anything else is a risk.
In addition, I have a weakness to most metals, especially iron.

What is the size differential between fae and humans here? We wouldn't want to escape the facility just to be eaten by a small dog.

I haven't had much of a chance to test it, but I know I'm stronger and faster than the average human adult by my interactions with the nurses. It usually takes four or five of them, with drugs, to restrain me on a bad day.

I could try the towels for sure. I can still feel the metal, but it's a dull burn as opposed to searing pain, so it's tolerable.

"Sorry! I accidentally ripped one of my bedsheets." Then they will probably send someone with a keycard, which we need. Try to sound as friendly as possible, but dont overdo it if thats out of the norm. Let's wait to rip the towel until later, but keep it on you. Tie it around your waist or something for now.

Muffle the intercom with the rags, then grab more bedsheets and prepare to throw them at whoever kicks down the door.

I hit the intercom button and scramble over to my bed, stuffing the halves of the towel underneath.

"Sorry! I, uh, ripped a bedsheet on accident. It's not a big deal, geeze."
My heart is pounding, but it's best not to be too nice; I haven't been in the past, and it might make them suspicious.

There is a long pause before the intercom buzzes again.

INTERCOM: We will send someone to collect it.

Okay. So I actually have to rip my sheet before they get here, which should be easy enough, and then do whatever else I want. I don't know how much time I have to prepare, either, so I'd better move fast.

>Find the microphone they're using to listen in on you. You can't do any sneaking if they can hear and see what you're up to-- are there any cameras in your room?

I know there are microphones, but there shouldn't be cameras. There are only cameras in Isolation Rooms.

>there shouldn't be cameras. There are only cameras in Isolation Rooms.
That's just what they want you to think.

make sure to muffle the microphone(s) before you rip your sheet or else it will be suspicious, then hide whatever you used to muffle it before anyone gets here

might want to think about how you are going to steal a keycard too. could you use your telekinesis power to 'pickpocket' a nurse without them noticing or is it not that precise?

Are any of the guards particularly nice? Maybe someone you could manipulate into helping you escape?

punch the next motherfucker you see

Loudly complain about how fragile the sheets are and start ripping them. Keep tearing at them until a nurse arrives to remove them, and they'll have no idea the first tearing noise was from something else.

She's responsible for more than a few of my wing scars, because of 'unreasonable behavior'.

>might want to think about how you are going to steal a keycard too. could you use your telekinesis power to 'pickpocket' a nurse without them noticing or is it not that precise?

I can see her keycard in her front pocket, but if it starts floating out of her pocket towards me shes's going to know somethings up.

>Are any of the guards particularly nice? Maybe someone you could manipulate into helping you escape?

Well it definitely isn't this bitch. Probably not any of them. Did I mention I hate all of the humans here? Because I do.

I so, SO want to, but physical violence will get me put in Isolation.

I just have to get through this conversation, and maybe I can get to the common room or snag her keycard.

>>712602
Just toss the sheet in her face. That's not quite violence, right?

"Got my teeth snagged on a sheet and tore it."
Not entirely a lie, and I'm fairly sure there's a few rags in plain sight.

"The food here is terrible-- the sheets taste better. Speaking of which, I need new sheets."

I stay casual, shrugging and brandishing the torn sheets.
"I got a tooth snagged on the sheets, and they ripped. They aren't very strong--and they taste better than the food here. Also, I probably need new sheets now."

"Give them here," Julianna commands, and I grin, flinging them towards her.
Technically, I'm doing what she asked.

Unfortunately, Julianna has had years of dealing with me, and is prepared to catch them, folding them neatly before tucking them under her arm.

"If you keep acting up, you aren't going to be permitted as much time in your room," she warns, and I stiffen.
Getting put in Isolation puts my chances of escape down to about 0%.

"Maybe it's time for us to file those fangs, hm? It worked with 13, it should work for you," she continues, glaring at me.

while she is distracted, telekinesis the keycard so it is sitting on her shoulder. just slide it up. then when she turns around you pull it off.

Ask for a mouth guard for when you sleep. That's the kind of thing you couldn't hurt anyone with, is a reasonable request, and shows you want to compromise. It will require they spend a little extra attention on you, and may give you access to a dentist temporarily.

I fold my arms, and with a flick of my wrist send the keycard hovering over her shoulder.
Once she turns, I'll be able to snag it.

"Maybe you should file down your personality, you bitch!" I snap, still flapping my hand.
"I'm not letting you file my fucking teeth. What about one of those plastic thingies?"

She raises a brow, clearly surprised I suggested an alternative.
"I suppose we can look into getting you a mouth guard. I'll talk to your doctor. In the meantime, no more destroying your stuff, got it? If you continue, you will be punished."

I changed art programs, so panels should look like this one and better in the future!

I make a face, and Julianna turns to leave.

"Mealtime is soon, and despite my better judgement, you're allowed to eat today. Don't pull anything between then and now, okay?"

As she leaves, I manage to grab the keycard, and grin.

I now have Julianna's keycard.

But I don't know what to do now. If I attend mealtime, I can talk to the two other faeries here. Plus, I'm fucking hungry.
On the other hand, I have a very small escape window before they come looking for me.

Hide the keycard somewhere really deep, using your telekinesis. Prepare an escape route one last time in case of updated security protocols.

When everything's in place, use the card.

finding a hiding spot for the card seems wise, as is eating-if you don't eat you won't keep that strength of yours up!

Eat the keycard. That will keep it safe and provide you with nourishment.

Yeah, no, I'm not going to eat the damn keycard.
I do need to hide it, though, so I stick it in the waistband of my underwear so that it sits against my hip.

It's probably better to go eat, since I'm so hungry.
Is there anything I should do before they come and get me?

Loudly announce your success in stealing the keycard so that you can escape.

the card needs to be hidden. can you hide it on your person or in the room easy enough? if not then you need to cram it somewhere 'downstairs' if you catch my meaning.

>Loudly announce your success in stealing the keycard so that you can escape.

NO.

As of right now, I have the keycard tucked into the waistband of my underwear, so that it sits against my hip. It is doubtful that the nurses will search me and find it.
I also have the flimsy hospital gown, which I am wearing.

In my room, there is a bed (now sheetless), whole towels, a ripped towel, a dresser, and a small endtable.

I have time to do something before the nurses come to take me for dinner, or I can just wait.

Go get food and brag to your friends about how you have a keycard and can get out. I bet you'll leave with a lot more friends than you started with.

wait.
Maybe even attempt a friendly smile when the nurses arrive?

How long will it be until she notices the keycard is missing? As soon as they know it's missing, they can turn her credentials off, and it'll stop working.

You want to take the ripped towel, for touching metal doorknobs and such. Um, tie or wrap the strips around your thighs so your gown hides em?

...What are the limitations of your telekinesis? Could you, say, nudge somebody's brain? It'd probably knock them out. Or worse.

Ok, well now I'm imagining her pulling someones blood out from underneath their skin or their eyeballs out of the sockets.

About your telekinetic and telepathic limits... are you only be able to move things/communicate with people in your line of sight?

Is size the only factor or is it harder to lift small but heavy things? About how long can you hover something for before needing to put it down?

Going to dinner would probably give you better opportunity to slip away, unless you think the nurse will get her clearance pulled before they take you to the cafeteria, disabling your keycard. In that case... I dunno, ask to use the bathroom and you can try to loose your guard there? Assuming theres only a keycard reader on the outside of your door.

I take the towel scrap and wrap it around my thigh, tying it off so I have a kind-of thigh holster.
This should be helpful for holding things, and will let me smuggle the towel scrap to touch metal.

>What are the limitations of your telekinesis?

In this environment, I can only move small objects short distances. I usually have to be close enough to the object to see it, and the heavier it is the the harder it is to move. I don't think I could move anything over a couple of pounds right now, so people are out.

Moving someones brain or doing weird stuff with their blood sounds too complicated for me.

I wait until a nurse escorts me to the dining hall, and look around once I enter.

It's a long, narrow room, and everything is gray, which sucks. Honestly, the place reeks of misery.
I do see Daniel by himself at the end, though.

Daniel and I have known each other as long as we've been here, so years. He's soft spoken, preferring telepathic communication, but he's incredibly sweet.
He's also the only one of us that can still fly, as he doesn't put up much of a fuss with the guards.

Nah, Daniel just always looks scared. He's like a tiny deer.

I slide into the seat next to him and prop my chin on my hands, thinking.
He would definitely be good to have around. Not only can he fly, but he has different magical abilities than I do, including a sophisticated glamour, and he has pretty good knowledge of the facility.

The only other faerie here is Sam, who should be here soon. Still, I don't want to just abandon Daniel.

I glance over at him, grinning.

His eyes widen, and he shushes me.
A moment later, I can hear his voice in my head.

Not so loud!! How are you getting out?!

Would you guys be interested in a lab rats disthread?

Hey, be careful!! Can they hear telepathy here? Are you SURE they can't?
And what happened to his ear?

Re: questdis, I usually figure why not. I may not use it, at least not right away, but I don't think it'd hurt, yeah?

I eye the bruises on the inside of his elbow and suppress a shudder.

He half laughs, rubbing at it.

Daniel knows the guard shifts, and he can figure out when it's best for us to leave. He also knows the layout of the facility, can construct more sophisticated glamours, and can fly.
However, he is very timid, and mostly nonverbal. That could be bad if we run into anyone.

Sam, unlike myself and Daniel, is actually on good standing with some of the guards, so if we get caught he may be able to talk us out of it. In addition, he has mild persuasive magic, meaning he can nudge someone to a decision if they are on the fence. He is knowledgeable about technology, and is likable.
However, Sam is currently tired, and can be overconfident in his skills. He may be unable to perform a task when we need him to.

As for myself, I have the most brute force of our group, and can heal minor wounds. I currently possess a keycard and towels, which will allow me to open doors without problem.
I am on pretty bad standing with the guards, though. If they see me as I am, it could get bad.

All three of us can communicate telepathically and construct basic glamour, but are weak to metal.

Do we need to make a more sophisticated plan or kick someone out of the group? Daniel or Sam wouldn't be happy about it, but...

kick them out is auto fail. You told them the plan, if you tell one to piss off now they might tell a guard. and you're donezo forever.

OK get Dan to come up with a good time for the escape seeing he knows the guard movements. Should you maybe give one of them the keycard in case the nurse assumes you took it?

Find a way to sneak Daniel the keycard. If he never puts up a fight with the guards, there's no way they'll expect him to have it. That should keep it safe!

You say it'd be bad for you to be seen as-is? Can you disguise yourself? Or, you say Daniel can construct more complicated glamors? Can/should he disguise you? I dunno as who, though - another fairy? A guard? Nobody, for now? ...Invisible?

dan doesnt have the towels though, and hes a sheepish little rabbit, he might chicken out.
it has to be you.
ask him when he thinks you should break out - but its not like you have a way to measure the time?
can daniel disguise you when you bust out?

Sam and I can only use basic glamour, hiding our wings and making our eyes and ears look like a humans.
Daniel can change our features, but any big changes will sap his energy pretty quickly. Invisibility for three beings would be pretty hard: the less he has to change the better.

I think about giving the keycard to Daniel, but decide against it. He is pretty timid, and I don't know how I could pass it over without anyone noticing.

Daniel says that the number of guards and nurses greatly diminishes after lights-out, so a few minutes after our rooms go dark should be a good time to get out.
He adds that there's a supply closet right outside of our wing, and that he can glamour us up in there if he wants. We may be able to change clothes, too--but we might run into someone.

Sam doesn't like the idea of stopping, mumbling that we should just make a break for it and glamour on the way. The sooner we get going, the better.

I hesitate, mulling it over. We need to figure out what to do now, so that later we aren't standing in the hall like a bunch of morons.
I think this is the last chance we'll have to talk before we go back to our rooms, so we have to decide fast.

Do you all know staff with the same builds as you? I think ducking into the closet, swapping clothes (having pockets will be a great improvement. you might even be able to grab a set of gloves so you can touch stuff without it being obvious to anyone watching), then glamor-ing it up to look like some specific staff members.
To get clothes you could have Daniel completely glamour himself solo and have him go to the nurses station to get a full set for all of you.

>>716304
This is good

>>716304
yeah, ask daniel if thats a possibility
(also, why does he only have one ear?)

All of our ears are docked, it's just the most noticeable on Daniel because he has the shortest hair.
It happened a while ago: some kind of Lab thing.

That sounds like a good idea.
Daniel doesn't like the idea of going alone, but we're out of time to discuss other options: the nurses are here to usher us back to our rooms.

I sit down on my bed to think.

Right now, I have Julianna's keycard and towels to touch metal.

Daniel has confirmed that Julianna took a few days off, so her keycard will not be noticed missing for a while. He knows that the guards will decrease significantly after lights-out, which is probably when I should leave.

Sam and Daniel are accompanying me, so the first thing I need to do is bust them out. From there, Sam and I need to find a place to hide while Daniel goes to storage to get us scrubs and gloves, if he can.
Daniel did not want to go alone to the storage room, but we didn't discuss other options, so that's the current plan.

Is there anything I should do in my room, or should I wait until lights out?

I say get some rest. This will be your last chance for quite a bit.

Think about some possible places to hide while trying to fall asleep if it takes you a while to fall asleep? Just make sure you don't oversleep.

dont make daniel do something he doesnt want to.
when in the hall, glamour your features away, and you and sam go with him.
consider taking the towels for them too? no ripping though.

I lay down and think for a while.

If Sam and I don't go with Daniel, the two of us could probably duck back into one of our rooms as a hiding spot. Honestly, there isn't much else.

We could definitely go with Daniel, though; he would probably prefer it. In that case, we would all be hidden in the supply closet.

I close my eyes, waiting for lights-out.

It's time to go.

Into the dark, then.

>>718521
Bite some throats out!

>>718551
No, nonlethal only. Not to mention thats messy af. Onwards!

It's go time then. One last thing. If you have to talk your way out of something don't forget to glamor your teeth.

Might as well go with the everyone hide-in-the-supply-closet plan. Once you get out of your room I doubt youd want to go back in. Plus if anyone in the facility gets suspicious theres probably some kind of lockdown they could use to disable the keycard, but I doubt they keep the supply closet locked so it seems safer.

Do you wanna bust out sam or daniel first?

I decide to go grab them both and head to the supply closet, and open the door slowly.

It's darker in the hall, too, the lights dimmed due to the late hour. Daniel was right: the nurse's station is deserted. So much for hard workers.

>Bite some throats out!
>No, nonlethal only. Not to mention thats messy af. Onwards!

Honestly, I don't have a problem killing humans. I know that I can, and if I have to, I will. I don't know where Daniel and Sam stand on it, though.

Sam's room is right next door, with Daniel's next to that. They had to renumber the rooms after we started dying.

No blaring alarms. Normally that would be a good thing in any stealth game, but this is a scientific institution. They're going to have smart security, guards capable of keeping up with the constant technobabble and able to understand what will work against the test subjects.

They'll also deploy traps for this situation.

You need to act fast, they might be sending specific stealth teams to knock you out. Open both doors from the control console and turn off anything important.

Sam first, since he's closer. Then Daniel.

>>718862
why would she need to use the nurses console to open the doors when she has the keycard? it should be able to work for the other faeries rooms too. worst case messing with the computers could initiate an institute-wide shutdown or blaring alarms if we dont have the right passwords/codes

>>718952
fast!

I move quickly, going to Sam's room and opening the door.

He's laying down, but sits up, peering over at me. He's definitely tired, but I've committed to taking him with me.

We move to get Daniel next. He's waiting, and fidgeting like a frightened rabbit.

We go.

Sam shuts the door behind us, leaning on it, and we take a moment to look around.

It's silent except for the noise of the faucet, and I exhale.

Drink up, then grab the medkit, then open the biohazard container slowly, use it as a caltrops trap. Search the other stuff for useful materials.

You need to find a map.

Consider using the halloween costumes as disguises for when you reach the outside world.

>>720226
That's...and interesting, but horrifying idea. But search the stuff, at least. And if you're thirsty, drink, I guess.

>>720227
On that note, actually, what do you expect to find when you get outside? Is there a fairy state you can go to for asylum, or will you have to hide out forever?

Seems we don't need to separate then, looks like there are spare scrubs on the shelf. Everyone gown up and put on a set of those gloves. See if they are enough to touch the sink handles without heavy pain. You can double or triple up on them, but any more would be noticeable and maybe impact your dexterity. Everyone has pockets now too, right? (after gowning up)

Pop open the first aid kit and see what goodies are in there. What are in the open/closed boxes on the shelf?

We *could* rig up some water in a glove to take with us.(tie it in a knot so it stays closed) Not sure if it's worth carrying some around though, it depends on how far of a trek we have to go before we can rest again.

You have any clue which way the exit is?(towards the labs or the other wings)

Is the faucet... supposed to be on?

>>720471
...if the faucet is on then it's possible someone was just here, and might be returning to shut the faucet off.

I grab a set of scrubs, as do Daniel and Sam.

I have to roll up the sleeves and the bottom of the shirt for it to fit right, considering I'm pretty small, but I manage.
I don some of those stupid latex gloves, too. They're itchy, but they should help with the metal.

Sam goes to look through the first aid kit, and Daniel and I take the boxes on the shelves. One is full of empty syringes, which would be great if we had needles.

Daniel unearths a surgical mask, tying it on.
"It's probably better to cover our faces, right?"

He's right, but I really don't want to.
I glance at the sink, and pause.
The faucet is on. That could mean someone's coming back here.
We have to move fast.

> Masks
Too conspicuous. If you put too much high-profile camouflage on, you're just drawing attention. Still, keep some for extra disguise options.

Some of the best disguises are as thin as paper but are so vivid that eyewitnesses will focus specifically on these glaring traits which have absolutely no physical or mental connection to the actual user, allowing them to make one-time interactions that will completely throw the identity trail off.

Here's an idea: if you need a quick glamour, try combining the features of multiple staff members, preferably those that group together often. Veterans may mistake your mix-and-match as colleagues trying out each others' makeup tips.

>better to cover our faces
Way too noticable. Especially since you are planning to glamour yourselves to look like others anyways. Daniel takes the brunt of the glamors (hair, skin if necessary for the person he is gonna disguise as, and facial features towards the people you are all supposed to look like) while you and Sam pick up the wings, eyes, and your own teeth if you need to speak.
