Stab him with the spear. Fatally.

If it works as Nou originally intended, it will kill him as she originally intended, saving her.

If it doesn't, then it will prove a point to the idiot that maybe there was a reason why she was trying to get him painkiller.

Uh- mosani, ny vos maldas sah!

Qua?

Hhggkgnngh...!!

...Vos volor ny maldas sah? MALDAS KOS. MALDAS KOS VOS BAYAN QCOAK.

GOUGE HIS BASTARD EYES OUT

If that doesn't stop him, nothing will.

Ok, uh, shit. Right, so, he's stronger than you and her, and pain won't do anything because he's in so much already, BUT even being an alien his body should still obey the basic rules of skeletons and muscular contraction, right? I mean he's got joints.

So, if you smack the opposite side of a bent joint, it SHOULD make said joint spring open, at least a little. I mean, if you hit the right spot. I think it's the base of the tendons or muscle you need to hit, not the actual bone. It probably won't get him to let go but it might loosen his grip enough for her to catch a breath.

Aside that, uh... I don't know, if you put one of her hands on your head maybe she could put some of her words in your mouth instead of the other way around? Though she might not be able to think clearly enough to do that now.

Maybe someone besides me will come up with something for you to say..

Words won't work. There's lack of understanding on both sides.
Why on earth would you punch a guy who's stronger than you in the chest when you could kick him in the 'nads? Go back to the "Squeeze his internal organs until they pop" idea.

>>751646

Hmm. I don't think gouging his eyes out will really work, but threatening to might. I mean he wants death so that's not a threat, but if we're threatening to leave him in pain AND blind he wouldn't want that. Plus there are strong instincts in every creature to protect their eyes, in his stressed state his might react without thinking. I mean, he's acting without thinking as is. So, you could step on his other arm to keep him from using it and then make a threatening motion towards his eyes. He'd have to let her go to protect them.

Use the numbing stuff on him, it might calm him down? I don't think violence will work on someone who wants to die.

Uh. Uh! Shit! He's even more enraged now! Translator?! Where's our translator?! What the hell did he say?!

>>751655
The numbing stuff is in the dimensional storage pocket Nouille opened earlier, thus it is not available! I don't know why so many of us keep overlooking this important detail. I even pointed it out a moment ago.

If he wants to die, can you find a knife real quick, then find the carving inside him that keeps him alive and cross them out with the knife, or add stuff to it that would make them null? But I don't know if that's how it works and I feel like all this would take too much time though, since he's not opened up like Kate.

Maybe say "I'll kill you" if translator wants to say what that is. I couldn't figure out from their post. But maybe saying something like that could make him stop. Something like "Don't kill her, I'll kill you. Kill her, I won't kill you".

Carve the pain-deadening rune into his flesh.

>>751661
Ahhh people are depending on me now

>...Vos volor ny maldas sah? MALDAS KOS. MALDAS KOS VOS BAYAN QCOAK.
You want [me] not [to] kill her? KILL ME. KILL ME YOU [?????].

No idea what he's calling Jack but the message is pretty clear.

>>751673
"I'll kill you" would be "kos maldas vos". That longer phrase would be "Vos ny maldas sah, kos maldas vos. Vos maldas sah, kos my maldas vos." I'm not sure either of those is great in context though. If any of those I would start with "Vos maldas sah, kos ny maldas vos." (if you kill her, I won't kill you.)

I really really wish we could say "you can't die" but we don't know the word can. Hagergergerk.

Only other thing I can think of to try is "Sah banasha on" (she go away one) (as in, let her go first)

Or, I suppose, we might be able to actually kill him if we find where the runes are carved into him and scribble them out.

I just realized that the title card says rock and not cock.

>>751687
Oh. That's not good. I'll have to keep that in mind for the next title card and make sure my r's are definitely r's because I really don't want to run cockquest.

Whack him on the head until he stops choking Nouille!

>>751682
Like his bisected buddy of the fairer sex, he's probably already hopped up on loads of magic anaesthetic. And it's still not helping.

Dammit Jack, kill him fatally. Use the spear. You don't have time to muck about. If it doesn't work, hopefully he'll rethink his situation. If it does work, it's only what Noodle was trying to do originally anyway.

wait, what if we get Nouille her spear back, then try to kill him. then hopefully Noille can open that poratl thing before passing out.

I jinxed myself. Should have kept my mouth shut.

i see, he has immortality but not the other two, they must be important to not turning out like this.

PIERCE THE RUNE, WE'RE IN TOO DEEP.

FUCK THIS MESS!

I suggest you do both. Write the pain relief rune while you stab various organs. Actually, how about you stab the rune into a large cohesive organ? If it works, have Nouille tell him he's dying.

CARVE DEM RUNES BOI

Okay, so the way I see it you have two real options. Scratch out the immortality rune, or carve in the painkiller rune. Anything else will just inconvenience and/or aggravate him.

Up to you which to try first. Either one may not work, for different reasons.

Glance over to where Nouille is, see how she's faring.

the bigger line closer to the top goes through one side of the triangle, and one side only.

Oh HILARIOUS. Looks like the Undead Rune for humans is the Blood Fountain Rune for nagas. Carve the last rune and REPEATEDLY APPLY SUDDEN PRESSURE TO UNOUN'S NECK WITH CROWBAR.

Okay, I think he's saying to stop. Pretty sure. ... Or he could be asking you to do more of what you just did. One of those things. Pretty sure one of those things. *sweatdrop*

Oh, and I think I see the mistake. For both you and her the rune was upside-down from the way you carved it on him. Probably flipping it inverts its function, so you just caused more pain instead of less.

Well, he released her at least, so now you can at least talk with real translation. Cause I'll be the first to admit I don't really know what I'm doing.

Uh back off for a bit while you... renegotiate? You're such a twig I'm pretty sure if he started choking you that'd be even worse than it was for Nouille.

Maybe try that "mallas juan fais ny maldas" from earlier, then ask Nouille to properly explain that there's some magic keeping him alive despite all that's happened, and that we can either try to do something so that he can function while in two pieces, or try to make it so he can actually die... and we're not sure either one will work. Actually getting this out there seems really important.

Though of course that requires that Nouille be able to talk after being strangled for like a minute straight. Shit.

I apologize deeply for the hiatus, it's been a rough few weeks for me. I know that long breaks like this just destroy whatever momentum I build up with this, which I hate. I'll try to do better.

before you do that, cut the rune so it stops working. you don't have immortality so losing all your blood will kill you.

Not sure what happens if you cut a rune. Worst-case scenario, you etch an "expunge all blood out of entire body and then explode" rune.

Just do it right the second time. Or rip the skin off.

Ummmm yeah at this point I cannot recommend messing with the runes more...

Oh thank god I think that actually stopped it. I think this is the first not shitty thing to happen to me today.

okay then, so that means the THIRD rune on her skin flap is the "no pain" rune. luckily the other guy already has the immortality rune so being drained of blood wont kill him.

You better not have jinxed it. Might want to sit down now, in case the pain returns.

What did that look like again? ... Not like it matters, I seriously fucking doubt he's going to let me get close now. I've already gotten choked out once today, I do NOT want to do it again. It's not goddamn pleasant and I've gone through enough fucking shit already.


Nouille? Are you alright? Can you breathe?

Ahhgk... o- oui, I... I am... I can breathe...

Damn, she sounds rough. How hard did that cockweed squeeze? Christ.

Well then, let's try to get everyone away from "Unoun" and see if we can get Nouille to explain the situation... once again, there's magic that makes him unable to die going on. We can try to cancel the magic so he can die, but as he just saw we're kind of fumbling in the dark here. Alternately, we can try to make his undying existence more comfortable, but that's probably almost as much of a crapshoot to be honest.

Gently massage Nouille's neck, then begin a barrage of light karate chops on her back to relieve muscles. Grab Katie and instruct her to gently relieve Nouille's chest with basic CPR. Take a few moments to grab anything that Unoun could throw at you.

help her over to the corner. then have her explain that katie(point) has three runes on her, immortality, blood drain, and pain remover while he only has immortality. his options are getting the pain remover rune or having the immortality rune scratched out.

>>759958
Practice the other silliness if you must, but don't perform CPR on someone whose alien circulatory system seems to be working just fine.

That is not a bad idea, though. I mean, the basic idea, not the whole 'get the naked half-girl to grope the leech woman's giant tits' bit. This is seriously not the time.

If you're sure you're okay... can you tell me what the deal with the runes are?

It is? 'Ow?

...You don't know, then?

No, I 'ave no idea what you are saying! 'Zere is something keeping 'im from dying? 'Zat- 'zat is bad, 'e needs to die...!

> He needs to-
Please don't say that.

But if we need to take him out, we could just wait until he passes out and scratch up his runes until he dies. Easy.

> What do
Nouille, pocket dimension. Get the laptop. Jack, check the battery power, then use the camera function and take pictures of stuff, cultist bible included. Set the computer to black and white to save power.

>>762090
>No, I 'ave no idea what you are saying! 'Zere is something keeping 'im from dying? 'Zat- 'zat is bad, 'e needs to die...!

I am TOTALLY with Nouille on this one. He's not just an asshole, but he has been through a horrible ordeal to the point where death would be a release.

>>762096
Actually, death really is preferable in his situation. The whole point of the getup in there was to deny him that as long as possible, so...
Maybe if we tear the skin with the rune off wholesale it will end its effects. If it works, the pain is not a concern. If it doesn't work, well, he's been through worse.

>>762098
Also, y'know, reincarnation is apparently a real thing for them so.

I got nothing but to show her Katie's runes. Don't let her wipe them out though, she probably doesn't understand that humans don't reincarnate.

Well then, we're back on the "Hey buddy sorry but there's some bad magic stopping you from dying. You can probably tell from how much pain you're in and how much blood you've lost and how still-not-dead you are. We're trying to fix that but as you can tell it's going to be pretty iffy for a while. Very sorry, but we'll do our best," translated through Nouille, plan.

Though y'know, maybe less wordy if she's having a hard time talking, though we can probably leave that up to her. She's the one who needs to translate, she can probably tell what can be cut out.

show her the marks on katie. they are immortality, blood loss, and painlessness. unon has the immortality, and now the blood loss. if you break the immortality rune he will die.

>>762271
If we could carve the last rune into him and destroy the Bloodletting one maybe he'll stop being a cunt.

And can we also carve the Immortality rune into ourselves?

For once I don't have nothing to show for the delay. Only close to nothing! If you haven't seen it, I did a long comic in the secret santa thread. It gives a little bit of a glimpse into what Nouille's village and past was like.

You've definitely never seen these?

Non, never!

I don't get how they work, but somehow they do things. One takes the pain away, one makes you bleed and one keeps you from dying. I didn't know which was which before, but I do now.

Your guy has the one that keeps him from dying. I was trying to give him the painless one, but he got the bleeder. So-

Non! Do not only take ze pain away! 'E's already, what is ze word... not fixable? 'E needs to die, I should 'ave-

And he's a fuck face, too. So there's that. Screw him. Drop the axe.

I'd suggest you give him the laptop to play with, except he would likely smash it just to piss you off.

Take everything you can from this room and set up your base outside. Head out with Katie and try to find a new place to set up a second safe house, and then scavenge more from your van before that adventuring party picks it apart.

Also, you haven't asked Nouille about us yet.

Now this I can understand. And agree with. He may be half a guy, but his arms alone are as big as I am. I'm not into the idea of trying to kill this guy without his explicit permission.

Nouille, grab your spear and crowbar and, uh- the backpack. I'll take the bed.

>Also, you haven't asked Nouille about us yet.

About what?... Oh, right, whether she can hear you. It's been a stressful five minutes man, cut me some slack. Uh... I'll ask when I get a moment alone with her.

>Head out with Katie and try to find a new place to set up a second safe house, and then scavenge more from your van before that adventuring party picks it apart.

Right, but that'll be difficult with Katie in two halves. Speaking of...

My unoun... kos ruan maldouc- ny, kos syas maldouc es...

Nouille, did you get that stuff from the van? The needle and thread?

Wait, did I ask her for that? I don't think I did.

Un moment, I 'ad grabbed a few 'zings...

...Woah.

Is 'zis 'ze "sewing kit"?

>>762096
>Nouille, pocket dimension. Get the...
Well, shit. She actually does have a pocket dimension.

Don't stick your hand in there. Ask Nouille how long the portal lasts, how much she can carry, and how large the storage space actually is. Obviously, carrying multi-cellular life in there for extended periods of time is not a good plan, but will bacteria and fungus (and tardigrades) have a shelf life or are they self-sustaining?

Also, you need to hurry this up before another adventuring party makes their way here. Tell Nouille to take most of the stuff out, so you can reorganize and put lower priority items in her INVENTORY (unless you have a better name for the pocket dimension), then discuss the various physical needs of humans and her species.

... Okay, normally I say something weird by now. Just hear me out on this: snake bab-

Does Katie's oven still bake buns.

>>772165
lets save the million questions for later.

>>772151
take the kit and try to put Katie back together.

ask her about her interesting magical stuff later, I mean she understood us explicitly through magic so how it works is kinda moot right now, though do ask how much she can actually store within it because that shit be handy yo.

Take your sewing kit, and at the very least start stitching her back together for now if there's nothing on the horizon. Also maybe grab a blanket.. Think that's a blanket to wrap around her.

Okay first remove the blood rune from Katie then fix her up, which is going to be a fucking mission with all those stretched guts. But remember that the spine is the support column for the whole body so unless we find a way of keeping her spines lined up and sturdy shes' just going to keep breaking in half.
Lastly apply anti-pain rune to us.

>lets save the million questions for later.

It's going to take me a minute or two to sew her up. I can ask whatever questions you all want to throw at me.

Eh... fuck it. I'll even answer the bun one. Her organs are all fine. Whoever sliced her, didn't slice all the way through. It's almost surgical.

>fix [Katie] up, which is going to be a fucking mission with all those stretched guts. But remember that the spine is the support column for the whole body so unless we find a way of keeping her spines lined up and sturdy shes' just going to keep breaking in half.

This is a good point though. We can't just start sewing. She doesn't need delicacy; I don't need to reattach nerves or anything and I don't think sterilizing equipment matters that much at this point. But she needs something to hold her together.

God, this is disgusting. Just thinking about it.

Nouille, I want to help Katie. Maybe your 'unoun' will calm down in the meantime. But right now, I need a bag to hold her insides in. Do you have one in your invent- eh. In your portal?

You guys can call it whatever you want, but nobody's going to understand "inventory".

Oui, I do, one second...

She needs a brace for her spine. I've got rope, I just need something long and hard... there is the crowbar.

This would be perfect, but there's that twisty bit at the end. Is there anything else...? Could I break this off somehow...? I- could try heating it up with my camping stove and bending it, I think I saw my stove in her 'inventory'- wait, no, I burned through the gas killing that pink slime thing. Damn.

Remember that really hot door in the torture chamber? You could probably melt it off there. But you'd be giving up a valuable weapon! The weapon of choice for the free man! Perhaps the boards in the window, or the coat hanger rod from the closet.

You could try hook it on/through her pelvic bone. Probably not the most comfortable but it's quick, the only problem is that we lose a crowbar.

You're ignoring the best replacement: Someone else's spine.

Specifically, the severed lower half of Unoun's torso. Maybe you can glue his spine to hers?

Honestly, I figure you should use something that bends so she isn't restricted from bending if she needs to climb into an alcove. How about ripping open the bed more for some alumninum supports?

Honestly, I think you should just find some sort of glue or drill screws in the bisected section. Not like the shoddy surgery is going to kill her. ALSO, you should stitch or cauterize some cloth or plastic into the areas where the runes are, if they get scratched Katie could DIE.

>>Crowbar
No, it's way way too useful. There's the frame from the picture in the room, or a board from the window, or a slat from the dresser(though that is too close to the dude in my opinion). Any of them would be easier to mold than a crowbar and depending on how good quality the wood is(maybe the board is the only one not made of shit wood) they should hold up well enough. Worth grabbing the painting too for either cloth or paper depending on which it is.

>>772150
>Wait, did I ask her for that? I don't think I did
Thought we discussed that? We told Nouille when we popped over to her, then told you when we got back. Btw, the sewing kit getting here proved it to Katie (and maybe also you?) that the voices are close to a tangible thing here at least. Everyone should be in on it now, so it shouldn't be a giant deal if we accidentally get around somehow.

See, the problem with that is he's not going to want to give it up.

Also, bendy is not good. I've already thought about this. Her muscles are cut along the split, and she needs those muscles around her torso and spine to stay upright. I'm hoping that both halves will contract at the same time, since she still seems to control her legs. I'm going to try sewing them together and see what happens. But it's going to be janky, at best. Any bit of help she can get in standing straight is a boon. If the only problem is that she can't bend that well, I'll consider it a total success.

>ALSO, you should stitch or cauterize some cloth or plastic into the areas where the runes are, if they get scratched Katie could DIE.
That is a good point. I'll absolutely do that. I might even scratch in a few redundant ones. Although, that might have side effects, I don't know how these things work...

>>773074
>There's the frame from the picture in the room
...I think I like that. It's probably garbage wood, but the short parts are around the right size, and I could use both sides to double it up and make it stronger.

... This sounds like the kind of rationalization that schizos come up with. It could just be coincidence that she grabbed the sewing stuff, and I'm making you say that to make it make sense to me. But, I think I've abandoned reason around the point where I decided to tie two halves of a wooden picture frame to a prostitute's spine so I could attach her bisected, but still functional legs back onto her torso. Fuck it. The revelation that you're not just a figment of my broken brain's lost grip on reality and my whole life has been a lie is the least crazy thing that's happening to me.



Wait. Wait up a second.

Is that a camera?

Oh, those fucking scumbags. Screw this motel.

>>774460
Ha. That's fucked, but if it's any consolation I doubt they're going to get much luck with the insurance companies. Highly doubt "Transported to a Hellish Alternate Dimension" is covered by disaster insurance~!

UNOUN IS MOVING, PLEASE EVACUATE THE VOUYER CHAMBER

It's a good thing you're covered in alien blood so we can't tell how red you're turning.

Dig that thing out of the wall! Electronics are sparse out here, and it might have a battery. Where does it connect to film storage?

What'd you expect from the proprietors of a sleaze-ball motel that also has a room that teleports to a hell-esq dimension? And they screwed up the placement. It's not even in a spot that can see the bed action, so what the heck were they thinking putting it there?

But put that out of your head right now 'cause you were so focused on the camera you didn't catch that homicidal alien naga dude is on the move. Glance over to check what he's up to. But whatever he's doing, I strongly suggest you grab your backpack and GTFO before you get beaned in the head by a '70s clock radio or perhaps the entire nightstand. I also suggest not sticking around outside this motel room while working on Katie's spine, lest Unoun keep dragging himself into grabbing range every two minutes and interrupt you.

I also noticed that there might be something written on the backside of that print of The Birth of Venus you took out of the frame. Check it when you don't have a angry alien immediately after you.

The camera could also be taken from outside the room via judicious application of that crowbar to the wall behind it. It'd be safer than standing in here with a hostile alien that probably wants to twist your head off like a cheap action figure's. I'm sure Katie is going to have some choice words about possibly being filmed in the act if you tell her about the camera. ...Fairly sure.

There's also something else that's been bugging me about this motel room; Something not obviously incongruous: It has plaster and lath walls. Plaster and lath walls were generally supplanted by drywall in the U.S. in the decade after World War II, when Las Vegas was also undergoing it's boom years. So any building in Las Vegas old enough to have plaster and lath walls would have been near the center of the city and almost certainly demolished to make way for new casinos and other development. Especially a motel, since those were often on valuable real estate on or near major roads. Meaning this motel room should not have survived those years, let alone the decades after to become the scum-hole it is. That is, unless it was teleported out back then.

I suspect that this motel room is a inter-dimensional trap meant to snag folks nobody would probably miss. It'd drop in right next to a real no-tell motel run by a collaborator and blend in. And it being magic would explain why that clock radio and the lights still work when they shouldn't, and the instantly boarded up window. ...Or it's entirely possible I'm reading far too much into this and talking out of my ass. Eh, not like it matters right now how this damned room came to be.

Cute. What is he planning to do, pounce from the nightstand?

... Oh wait, that might actually work. His arms have sufficient length and force to propel him just enough to reach your legs.

Raspberry + Leave, now plz.

Makes about as much sense as anything else here, I guess.

Sounds good. I'll give it a shot as soon as I'm done with Katie.

>I also noticed that there might be something written on the backside of that print of The Birth of Venus you took out of the frame. Check it when you don't have a angry alien immediately after you.
