I am AcePilot Oken
me and my friends are hiding in-

ALARM: "DANGER. DANGER. UNKNOWN ALIENS BREACHING EXTERIOR VAULT DOOR. EVACUATE ALL PERSONNEL"

I think listening to the big scary alarm is a good idea. Collect yon party members!

>>257728

Um, go find everyone else

>>257731
It has the problem that for all we know the emergency exit leads to the outside, and the outside is where we were hiding from.

And we never got to explore that dropship.

But, still, return to rest of group.

Seal that breach, soldier

You and your friends are the alien I think. Somebody noticed your presence and started the alarm. If you head to the exit now you'll run into the staff members who are trying to get away. If you stay in here they'll seal the exits and you'll be trapped in this dungeon until they get backup.

Either way you'll have a hard time. The only chance to survive is to get back to your friends.

wait until you see a claw sticking through the wall then shoot through the hole, destroying everything on the other side.

the alarm continues to sound,

ALARM: "DANGER. DANGER. UNKNOWN ALIENS BREACHING EXTERIOR VAULT DOOR. EVACUATE ALL PERSONNEL"

Hoft: " . . . how long till they make it in?"

Mint: "I give it 10 minutes at most"

all right if the entrance is being breached and the computer is still advocating evacuation then the aliens will be assuming we'd be escaping using a different exit...

which means the most ingenious plan would involve using the main entrance! Oh Dirtbag, you are brilliant brilliant brilliant! Everybody get in badass formation we are smoking some asses today. They're asses are so smoked that the bees that crawled up in their panties are in will need fucking nightgowns. Bitches, we got bee nightgown delivery to make AND FUREX DELIVERS SUNSHINE, RAIN, SLEET OR SNOW

>>257845
OR SAND WE CAN'T FORGET ABOUT SAND! There's fucking sand everywhere.

open the door, shoot bitches, close it again and squish any that try to crawl through. repeat as needed.

Let's evacuate everyone through the emergency exit we found in the vents.

I actually do advise having everyone armed head to the vault entrance so we can see what we're up against and what chances we stand against them under the circumstances. Possibly we can seal the breach right here and not abandon our base of operations. Retreating immediately without even identifying the threat is terrible tactics.

>>257860

Or, you know... see if the computer can give us a VISUAL. (to prevent "Hey guise wuts goin on in dis mother------ fuck~" and then we die)

For all we know, it's pinkies, Astranians, or just a shitload of bugs (avoiding all possibilities of crossover, of course!).

Get the rocks from that cave in, and the table, and set them up as a small defensive wall in that main room. Add in some crenellation or if you have enough time, make it a high wall with a small window to shoot through.

>>257841
Between the stairs down, the rocks, and the perpendicular rooms, you should be able to set up some excellent cover and crossfire and butcher anything that comes in as long as you have ammo.

>>257865
But this would be a good idea because if it's a huge pile of bugs you're still going to get infesssssted.

Loot the supplies first!

>>257841
See if we can find out what's outside. If it's more bugs, we're best off just fleeing out the back door.

Get table and rocks from http://quest.lv/kusaba/quest/src/128797618635.jpg

Do this. But put rocks behind it too.

Not sure on marching order...

Lets go out of the damn emergency exit.

Why haven't we yet found some uber command room where we can just give awesome commands to some vault-wide AI such as "seal all bulkheads from sectors A1 to C3" and "Redirect vent control to funnel toxic fumes to the sealed areas!"

It would be cool 'n stuff

Everybody head for the back door. Oken goes first, Hoft covers the rear, everybody else stays in the center.

okay yeah you two first. then mint and prince, then fuze and the pinky.
wait untila hole opens then have hoft start shooting all over through the hole.

>>257902
Right. We're a flamethrower short of dealing with that.

Out the emergency exit. From front to rear: Oken (plucky protagonist), Prince (scanners and LASERS), Fuze (squishy vulnerable medic), Enrad (not really in fighting form), Mint (can taze Enrad up the bum if he causes trouble), Hoft (tough guy to hold the swarm back and die horribly in a self-sacrifice :3c).

>>257903
How many shots to you have left in that disintegrator weapon, and how fast can you fire and reload it?
If you punch a hole through the door and saturate then with hot death, then you might be able to wipe out most of the attacking force in the first few shots.
Following that you'd hold the position with other weaponry until the doors are about to fail, then make a fighting retreat to the emergency exit. At that point they would all be funneled into quarters tight enough that anything in the vents would be inside the weapon's killzone, and you'd be able to slaughter them wholesale while escaping.

Assuming that the emergency exit is even safe, which I would strongly doubt.

>>257917
>Bugs leave visible protrusions on the steel door
>There are at least 20 of the big ones
>Shoot a hole in the door to help them hack through faster
I don't think this is exactly the best idea.

Hauling stones will take too much precious time, we better retreat now. We have unexplored areas, don't we?

Oh and, Hoft, turn on your forcefield. From what we know, it's at least partially effective in vaporising biomass.
If those bugs are mechanical, however, don't waste your battery.

Take stock of the supplies room. If we can rig up some incendiary grenades or something from what's in there, then we're good.

For marching order... Well, how good is Prince in a fight exactly? Just a swing of a rifle killed one of those small bugs so if he can just wade in and slaughter the smaller ones the rest of us can concentrate fire on the bigger ones.

Oken and Hoft should be in charge of taking out the big guys.

Mint and Fuze should hang back a bit. Enrad too- see if you can arm Mint and Enrad a little better. Don't we have some extra guns? If they can provide cover fire for the others, that's great.

Enrad can use both the stun rifle, and stun pistol, if we can trust him with a weapon

Mint is trained to use light fire arms, but claims she's fine with just her tazer

Prince is able to cut things up with his meditools, he can no longer shoot eye lasers, but he does have 2 gun mounts

>Oken opens the hatch

Oh cool, it's a spiral slide!

Hoft: "hurry up, the bugs are breaking through!"

>>258086
Remember to get out of the way of the robot coming down after you when you reach the bottom. Remember that after Hoft is going to be a swarm of bugs. But, most importantly of all, remember to yell "whee".

>>258086
Wait, you're already underground. Who the heck designed an emergency exit that takes you FURTHER from the surface? Dem crazy Cazarani.

>>258086
Remember to go "Weeeeee!"

>>258086
Don't leave yet.
Give Hoff the disintigrator and have him shoot everything that enters the vents. Have Prince charge up a strong blast. Once the ammo runs out on the disintigrator head down the exit and have Prince blow it behind you.

>>258093
Prince doesn't have his laser anymore and there's just too many bugs for any of our current weapons to be effective.

must ensure you are not followed. cover your tracks, seal the exit.

>Hoft throws a couple grenades into the restroom, the resulting explosion caves in the room

Hoft: "that should hold em for a while"

Enrad: "HELP! I'm stuck!"

>>258243
Go ahead~

Give it a little push~

>>258243

Hoft, looks like you have to touch Enrad's butt. Push him through. Unless Enrad's not going to fit down the slide, that is.

Hoft: Pull him out, see if he can fit better without armor. Either way, get in first and see if you can pull him down with you, and if he gets stuck in the tube, at least both of you didn't get stuck.

>>258256
True Hoft, the slide IS a spiral and if he's getting stuck in the beginning, he's likely to get stuck somewhere around a bend, so pushing him might just jam it so that neither of you can get out. Then again, you're not terribly smaller than him, are you?

Is his artificial leg removable? If so, pull it off and reattach it at the bottom.

>>258249
Those boots were made for kicking pinkie arse, after all.

>remove stuff
Hoft may wish to consider taking off his backpack and holding it out in front of/behind him, too.

>>258296
>>258377
Okay, yeah, Hoft: Remove your backpack, send it down the slide, and if you can fit better without your armor do the same with that. If you have anything that can lubricate the tube you might want to leave it with Enrad to help him get through, and maybe

Either way, make sure you go down first. If you can't fit down there's no way the human can.

Oil that sexy pinkskin up and give him a health push in the butt. Enrad better set the mood by squealing like a pig.

>>258243
Remove his fake leg, that seems to be what's stopping him. When you go down, throw your backpack down first.

I wonder if the bugs can swim?

>>258452
Oken: "Prince, can you tell what's at the top of the ladder? Is it the surface, or is it more underground base? Also, check the water for toxins and other hazards.
Fuze, if the alternative is coming face to face with countless mind-controlling parasites that offer death in short and painful or torturous and prolonged flavors, then I would gladly swim through miles of blackwater. We can see the bottom; suck it up."

In to the poop water you go.

Is Prince waterproof? If not, we should not go into the water.

Prince: "though slight impuritis exist in the water, it appears drinkable with only minor concerns"

Prince says his scanners can't detect what's upstairs, my !paceCompass detects 10 life signs up, and none through the water hole

Prince: "you need not worry about my circuits, I am immune to the pitiful attacks water could muster"

water it is. compass says 10 things then that means probably 10 bugs waiting for us. through the water.

>>258526
Or ten pinkskins from a patrol, the original reason we came down here(?)
Either way, sorry Fuze. Maybe Enrad will give you a piggy-back ride. :V

Might wanna check up on Hoft and Enrad. How goes their progress?

>>258524
If it's humans, they have you outnumbered 2-1 and they all have guns. If it's bugs... let me put it this way, that big fight in the hangar was only nine bugs. Either way, you don't stand a chance.

Let's go through the water hole.

Wait, do the bugs normally register as life signs? Ask prince if it can discern by their signals and movement patterns if they are the bugs or not.

>>258555
They showed up last time, yeah. Although it said 4 lifesigns when it was the huge guy and 2 bugs, no lifesigns after killing them... so there may be some inaccuracy.

Ask Prince if he can get OUT of the water if he went down into it. If he can or could, tell him to go scout out the water hole and drop him in.

Oken is strong, she can protect them . . .

Shit. Hoft. Focus. Try to blot out the voices. Focus on the task at hand. Good soldiers power through shit. Good soldiers never leave men behind, good soldiers never lose their resolve.

Tell Enrad it's nothing. The voices are just trying to make you question the trust you have in your allies, which you won't let happen.

 

>>258709
Tell them your tired of their bullshit and mindgames. Betrayal isn't a big deal. Mint dies, no flinching or wimping about it.

Good thing SOP is to keep ALL weapons out of water, isn't it? They hammer that in all the way back in basic.
Besides, what if the alternative was worse? That's an emergency exit, but if you reach the surface then you'll be exposed to every infected being, every pinky, and every bug for miles without any sort of cover.

Tell the voices that your enemies are whoever threatens your squad, that Enrad's a part of your squad now, and that they can tell their bug minions to fuck off and die.

@Oken: Remember your training! Keep the guns OUT of the water, and check each area for lifesigns before moving into it.

Ignore the voices. Don't argue with them. FOCUS. Get Enrad down the tube.

Ignore the voices, or have Enrad keep talking to you while you pull him down if it helps drown them out.

Oken: "Hoft! look out!"

>>258865
Hang onto his arm tight, Hoft, jump over him and over the railing to spin him around and drag him over the railing with you. If it fails you'll break his arm and doom him to the bugs, if it succeeds it'll pull him forcefully into the water with you, though still might dislocate a hip or something. Poor fella's been cheating death as it is, sometimes you just have to let them go.

>>258867
Grab your backpack real quick first if it won't take more than half a second. Maybe with your other hand.

pull the trigger and throw gun, baby's gonna blow!

>>258870
...that would seem much more likely to do either nothing but ensure we never get the thing back to maybe fix it, or just explode immediately in Oken's hand. Neither outcome is desirable.

Has Fuze paid any attention at all to the state of his firearms?

I'm gonna go ahead and be the heartless sonofabitch that recommends Hoft just grab his pack and jump over the railing. Enrad's both a cripple and of a race you're at war with. If the choice is between someone not terribly likely to make it and your equipment, my vote's with equipment.

Save Enrad and get into the water, quick.

Did you notice that there's no firing delay?
There's a charge stored prior to firing; if pulling the trigger will make it blow then it will happen instantly
Hoft: Shout "HOLD FIRE!" and PULL!
Enrad: GRAB THAT RAILING AND PULL YOU GAWKING NIMROD!

Oken: DO NOT FIRE! YOUR ENERGY WEAPON IS WET! Pull out your melee weapon and prepare to battle!

Do not save one of those pinkskin bastards. Get Hoft out of there before another one of those damn bugs attaches to his neck. Run quickly. And it's the damn voices saying that getting raytech wet is going to make it all explody, but we all know decently made laser pistols are all airtight. They don't work under water because refraction turns a deadly cutting beam into a slightly warm tanning gun.

GET OUT OF THERE. Or find a way to seal the hole real quick. DO SOMETHING THAT GETS MORE SPACE AND PREFERABLY SOLID OBJECTS BETWEEN YOU AND THE DAMN BUGS.

prince: use laser to shatter rocks into a mild cave-in and seal the tunnel.

Proceed to have each member of the group give themselves a comically firm shaking, which if my numerous sources are correct will leave your fur looking exactly the same as before you jumped.

Also someone take a potshot at putting Enrad out of his misery so he doesn't show up later as some kind of half-human, half-robot, half-bugtech hybrid.

-Z

shooting into a narrow space vs. melee combatants = shooting fish in a barrel, or a killzone.

assuming of course the weapons work. so Hoft what's the range and destructive power of that antimatter cannon? :3

Remember that the pinkskin is dying to save one of your own. Tell people to treat his death with a bit more respect. Is anyone there a good shot? Try to aim for the brain, save him the pain of dying in such a painful way.

Continue down, Hoft in back, Oken in front, Squishies in the middle.

You can't save his life, but you can save him from his life.

>>259150
He's already dead, the shot would be impossible from that angle, that would involve going back into that room, that is a horrible idea.

Keep going! Put more distance between the bugs and you!

If you can safely (relatively) kill Enrad, do so. :(

goddammit. the one fucking human character we are likely to see in this entire quest who isn't trying to shoot us, and he dies approximately three minutes after becoming combat ready.

and would you idiots stop suggesting this cutesy shit while the rest of the party is in danger? just put as much distance between you and the bugs as you can.

Keep moving and ask Prince if he can scan the surroundings for any materials that can be used to build a fire and/or dry off. You guys should keep moving. Take a peek down the ladder and further down the hall to determine where you should go next.

Well, first of all, everyone needs to get out of their wet clothes.

>>259353
No - that would make matters even worse. Even the wet clothes are helping from cooling down too much more than nakedness.

So unless you can get them somehow dry don't strip and start cuddling each other for body warmth - no mattern how nice this option may sound.

You're more likely to find help in the stripclub than the tavern. It's a tradition for business deals to be conducted in such places.

>Oken: "Relax Fuze, all I see are Pinkskins, we should be fine"

Hmm.... let's reflect:
- Our raytech weapons are useless due to water exposure
- We have no other real weapons
- There are bugs. RIGHT BEHIND US.
- Pinkies are the guys we have been killing lately.

We're thinking this is a bad idea.

According to what we learned from Enrad, humans have been largely controlled by the bugs so far. So either these guys are their thralls or are hiding from them.

If you've not been noticed, the risk's too great to contact these people, as they're your ancestral enemies as well as potentially agents of the bugs behind you.

If they've already noticed you and made no hostile gestures, then you ought to at least give them the benefit of the doubt, insofar as warning them that the mind-controlling-insects are on their way and they ought to organize to protect themselves.

Pinkskin: "ya want something?"

Oken: "a whole lot of bugs are coming this way!"

Pinkskin: "ya saw em cross the water?"

Oken: ". . ."

Pinkskin: " I certainly hope no one's expecting you to be coming home . . . "

>>259807
"Well we dont wanna bother you but we have a lot of questions..know anyone who can answer them?"

"w..wait you speak astranian?"

>>259807
Ask him if he would like to be part of our pirate crew.

>>259810
I...don't think we're really set to make great impression in that regard right now.

Inventory check.

Why are you going this way? You have NO reason to come this way other than "Hey look, a hive of scum and villainy! That's a perfect place to be, as members of an enemy race and military!" For Pete's sake, LEAVE NOW BEFORE EITHER THE BUGS SHOW UP OR YOU ARE SOLD INTO SLAVERY!

Also, why is your high tech shit not waterproof? Seriously.

>>259813
They don't have provisions, they don't know where they are, they don't know where to go, and they are WET...
And the astranian looks like they hate the water, maybe they never had naval assault or wars that close to water-bodies...

>>259813
Waterproof weapons are expensive and complicated, it's usually easier to just issue normal guns and train soldiers to keep them dry.

Anyway, we need to get some more supplies and we need to start looking for a way off this world. The smugglers are our best bet for getting out of here, we should ask around if there's anybody who'd be willing to give us a lift (just don't expect it to come cheap).

>>259813
Well... They seem to dislike the bugs. Or at least, they're keep away from them. As far as we know, the bugs are instigating / trying to mastermind the war between everyone. If this town knows about that (note, this is something we should probably ask around about!), they might not even particularly hate the Astranians anymore than some random stranger they got into a car accident or something with.
Which is to say, this isn't a great place to be, no, but we might be able to do something productive here.
...
Wait, how do you know they're part of a Pirate guild? Are they using some emblem that command told you was used by pirates? The same command that told you pinkies had weak, low tech armaments and such?

>>259807
"I've had a very bad day so far; please don't make it worse.
We need transport off this godforsaken rock. Know any ships that could use a few more hands?"

Always kill the first guy who threatens you, even obliquely. That way you get a good reputation right away as someone that doesn't take no shit

Fuze: "Oken we should leave this place"

Oken: " . . . "

Pinkskin: "the only reason your still walkin about, is cause they're still planning a way to take you out with out wasting any charges, or damaging any of your stuff.

Also, everybody get their melee weapons ready.

Tell him you'll give him some RayTech once you get out of this mess if he comes with you. If this guy's keeping pirates at bay it might be beneficial to keep him around.

>>259902
He said he has no use for raytech, so that wouldn't work.

It sounds like they're valuable. Maybe he can sell it if he can't use it. It's not like he DOESN'T know where to fence it.

Fighting is going to get EVERYBODY killed. They have guns and range, you have melee and wet fur. If you fight you're going to die.

If you want everybody to make it through this alive then you're going to have to give up the RayTech guns. If you want to try to keep them, then they'll take them off your rapidly cooling corpses.
They WILL walk away with the RayTech guns; the question is if you walk away broke, dead, or with something for your troubles.

The best move is to just give them the guns. The stun gun(s?) you should keep, they're probably common around here and they might be waterproof. If any of your weapons have gone unnoticed (the tazer and Hoft's pistols especially) you should hang on to them. I don't think they'd care much about your other gear.

>>259943
Priority should be making yourselves less of a target. Get to the stores if you can and sell the RayTech to buy some functional weapons but if that fails and you get cornered just give up the guns because right now you've got no chance whatsoever of winning a fight.

Okay great yeah, since we went to the pirate city we lose all of our shit and possibly get some party members killed or worse. Great job, /quest/.

Tell Hoft to quit moping, we'll get through this somehow.

>>259966
Such negativity!

Get off the street and into the building.

>>259943
Why don't you just fucking ask them for a trip off this planet in exchange for the raytech? That would be a way for them to get the weapons without using a battery weapon charge.
Ask this young gentlemen is a possibility, ask him if there'd be a way for a peaceful exchange of weapons.
There's a damn good chance they'll kill you anyway after you're defenseless but that requires a bit of a higher effort/cost ratio then the exchange as well as being meaningless. They don't give a fuck about you if you're NOT packing pricey heat... unless they want to kill themselves some furries.

>>259943
Well, what you do here really depends on how long it takes to dry out raytech weaponry. As PRINCE to calculate a rough estimate on how much more time you have... at least until his eye lasers are back online.

If it's not long (minutes?), consider trading for shelter.

If it's long... attempt to trade with the pinkskin here (as in, right in front of us). Offer raytech weapons in exchange for supplies, information, and cheap pinkskin weaponry. The pinkskin weaponry is essential. If the pirates notice you getting rid of them, their next target will be whoever ended up buying them. This guy might be crazy enough to do that, at least.

HUMANS CANNOT USE RAYTECH.

I think that was established sometime during Pinkskin Quest

we put down our weapons as a sign we don't want to fight

the three Pinky Pirates come out of hiding, then a guilder comes out of the bar and approaches us

Oken: "um how about we make a trade"

guilder: "yarrr, I be thinking the same thing, here's how it's gonna be, you'll be getting to keep yer lives, and we'll be getting everything you own"

Oken: " . . . "

guilder: "now ye best be putting everything in this here sack, clothing too, wouldn't want ye to be hiding nothing valuable"

>>259995
While putting some stuff in the bag, Hoft or Fuze should stab the leader. Somebody else should shoot the other two with the stun gun while they're distracted.

>>259995

SHOOT THEM ALLLLLLLLLLLLLL!

>>259995
"Yea, I don't think you quite understand. We want to negotiate joining a crew.
RayTech's not a bad haul, but a squad of Astarans working on your side? Shit, you can't even recharge these things on your own."

>>259995
"AAnnnnnnd we get to ride in your ship next time you leave port for another planet. Or we can risk a fight, having weapons damaged and with less charges with optimized profit unobtainable. There's no cost on your part at all. We'll even work hard on your ship to pay for our food. Just have to get away from the damned bugs."

Shooting them with the guns you put on the ground that don't work is stupid and won't work.

Leaving the raytech shit there, duck in the houselet behind you. They're there for the Raytech stuff, they'll probably just go for it.

I did a quick check and there are pretty much four close-quarters weapons, one for each of you. Deer with the crowbar, Fuze with the knife-thing, Mint with the Wrench, and Hoft with the thing that looks like a machete. Prince can probably use his arms as decent bludgeoning weapons.

Assuming you can manage it, have y'all jump into that nearby GIRLS joint and from there you can negotiate a bit better, forcing them to come in at you where you can get at them in close quarters. Using that as leverage, suggest that perhaps a more fair trade might be in order. If they have a complete upper hand they have no reason to give y'all anything. But if they have even the slightest chance of being killed, it makes them much more likely to compromise.

Also are we REALLY to assume that these hyper-intelligent bugs that can control minds and influence them from afar, tunnel through extremely reinforced vault doors, and who-knows-what else can't find a way to cross a small bit of water? You might bring it up to them, or at the least bit bluff and say that they've already started making a bridge-device.

>>260002
Probably this.

with out a distraction, we'll not get one foot through the door, even with a good one I don't think Prince nor Mint are quick enough to get in on time

as for fighting, we might be able to charge the leader . . . though I don't know how good we'll do in close combat with a guilder

Oken: "um how about in exchange you let us join your crew?"

guilder: " aarrrr, furres are too scrawny to make good pirates, 'specially you lot"

Oken: "um fine, uh how about we get passage on board your ship when you leave world?"

guilder: "yaaaarrr, ye drive a hard bargain . . . DEAL. now put yer stuff in the sack before I change ma mind"

>>260077
He is a pirate, his words means nothing. But you are not in a position to negotiate...

Point out that you can use the raytech gear and they can't. Wouldn't it be more useful to have folks who can actually shoot the guns once they dry out? Tell him you just want to get the fuck out of here, and could care less about the alliance or the guns, really.

Put the raytech in the bag, but keep your clothes and stuff on. Try your hardest not to let them intimidate you. If you look like you're in a good position to bargain, people will treat you like you are.

>>260191
(Guilder is a race: >>/questdis/337444 )

Awww shite Guilders can use Raytech. That makes your position even less. And quite frankly, if they don't murder you at this point I'm not sure they're very good pirates. Once they get your stuff they've absolutely no reason to spare you.

I can't think of any way out of this

they have no reason to let us live either way, but if we're not a threat at least they don't HAVE to kill us . . .

>Oken and Co put their raytech in the sack

Oken: "please, we don't care about the Alliance or the weapons, we just want to get off this planet"

guilder: "yarrr, now everything else!"

(what does Oken do? does she obey or do something else?)

(Oken can expend her [LuckyEaring] to get her out of any 1 bad situation, this Item will NEVER be taken from her, it can only ever be used once)

(use [LuckyEaring] now?)

Comply for now, and if it looks like they'll kill you anyway, then use it.

I think it would be best if you waited for a situation where you're left with no choice but to use it, rather than wasting it on a situation where it wasn't absolutely required. After all, I'm pretty sure you're not getting another one, and you may need it more later.

I'd hate to have you use it now, just to find yourself in a tighter spot later, and have no way out of it because you used the earing in a situation you could have found a way out of on your own.

>>260364

Give him any usable tech; retort saying that clothing will serve no purpose to them (they can't wear it, and it'll hardly sell -- if at all).

Furthermore, inform him that travelling disrobed would be an insult to him and his crew. Make sure to appeal to his sense of power, authority, and greed.

Quick Tiny Fox use your feminine charm to ease the situation.

You gotta do what you gotta do. But since it's YET to be a life-or-death situation, preserve the earring. Yeah you've got to lose everything else, including the clothes (and let's be honest we the audience aren't terribly displeased about that), but you're in this situation and removing yourself from the situation (and in a best case scenario, you get, what, your useless weapons back and get to keep your clothes) doesn't help you get off the planet or escape the bugs.

Use the goddamn earring.

Use earring, get out of dangerous situation.

Actually, hold on. Waiting until a life-or-death situation is a much better idea. If this happens to escalate into that, we'll look into it then.

Use that deus ex machina!

Well dang. Should have set a wake-up timer on the guy. Have him perform some SUBTERFUGE from the cargo bay.

The moral of this story: When you have a god damned "Get Out Of Jail Free" card, use it.

>>260971

I tried, I really did, but I wasn't the majority. I don't understand why people didn't use what they had when they needed it. Or why they got themselves into that situation in the first place..

>>260956

>>260971. So fucking >>260971.

I DEMAND A DO-OVER! Or a mulligan! Or reloading a checkpoint! SOMETHING!

Bah, what crap, they could still escape, but fiiine, lets just end it.

Gay.

>>260973
Because there was a reasonable expectation that it would continue to "you are in a jail cell, what do?", not "GAME OVER".

>>260976

They can escape? All of their equipment, including Prince who is currently the only means of self-defense for the party, is gone. Aside from the lucky earring we collectively decided not to employ at feasible moments of use, they're down to their skivvies. There is no escape, we fucked up, that's that.

Waah waah when happy endings aren't guaranteed. In quest you should be happy for endings at all.

It was a good run, we earned what we got, and I look forward to what comes next from LonelyWorld. Maybe next time we'll be more careful.

pff, like there hasnt been escapes like that in other quests, and anyways, you dont stress a one time use item that way right at the moment before you can only use it you're going to get a bunch assuming they can use it later. derp.

isn't the careful mindset what got us in this mess? If anything we need to be more risky AND violent, a few dead allies lost in combat is way better than losing freedom completely.

>> Game Over
dude, seriously? That's a load of bullshit.

This is not yet the end.

And so everything from the fanart thread becomes canon.
Especial the deleted stuff.

What the fuck, I come back and you guys somehow got a game over even when the author gave you a god damn free pass which you then ignored in favor of volunteering to have the characters sold into fucking slavery. What the hell guys.

Lucky Earring: They're carriers of a blood-borne a pathogen that's harmless to Astarans but lethal to Guilder and Humans. Make it happen.

Fanart End! :D

Bite, no. BAD.

Oh wow, we suck at this. But anyway, I'm with the group that wants a do-over.

>>261006
Do it.

servant1: "Mother your prophecy was incorrect, you said they would never leave this world!"

BroodMother: "hmmm it appears that way, I suppose well have to rely on other talents, Psych?"

Servant2: "we can't mother, they're too far out, we have no crawlers that far"

BroodMother: "your lack of creativity dissapoints me, prepare my bio pod"

Servant1: "but mother, the Hive! we spent-"

BroodMother: "-30 years? wasted 30 years. I tire of this world . . . and hunger for Pirate flesh"

servant1: "but-"

BroodMother: "do as I say before I hunger for yours"

servant: "understood BroodMother"

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU-

Actually, this is pretty cool. Still a small chance for our 'heroes' to become bug-bait. ;D

Well played, LW.

>>261180
Yeah, except the IP hash of >>261155 is different from the usual b6c6fc and not seen anywhere else in this thread.

It might be someone else's fanart, it might be LW who deliberately changed IP to mess with us. Therefore, I can't be sure it's canon or not.

Well trolled, >>261155 . Well trolled :)

>>261216
The art looks a bit different as well... but the text, if not written by LW, is a very good imitation of his style.

It is a mistery!

>>261225
It wasn't drawn with a tablet - no pressure sensitivity anyway.
