>You and Spearmint make your way to the other side of a room towards something that looks like a vehicle.
>When you finally make your way to the machine you take a good look at it.
>It appears to be some sort of mech.

What do you do?

>>25054168
Attempt to power the mech. Look inside and see if there are any obvious ways of turning it on.

>Sees meck, Become Mechwarrior.

>>25054168
if there's a vehicle, you'd think there'd be an access route outside.

failing that, walls are merely options to mechs

>>25054168
Watch out for those vines, try entering the vehicle. Might be a good place to take a breather. Fuck. How long has it been since we got rest/ate something?

>Besides what appears to be the controls for the pilot is the You see some toggle switches labeled power, choke and engine and a potentiometer labeled lights.
"Hey Spearmint? Have you ever seen something like this?"
>"No not really, Do you think we should hide in something with windows though?"
"I want to try something different. Get in."
>You both hop in the vehicle and learn that the seat springs are not very comfy.
>Once inside you take a better look at the controls. There are two sticks and two peddals for the pilot, as well as some buttons on the sticks. The gunner gets a bunch of toggle switches and a control stick.

You are now in a mech, What do you want to try?
Suggestions for startup sequence and what controls you use if you start the mech successfully.

>A feminine voice within the Mech begins speaking to you. [Systems active fuel tank is at 40 percent capacity auxiliary power is at 20 percent capacity. Hydraulic fluid now gaining pressure.]
>Spearmint looks over at you, "How did you learn to drive these things?"
"It just made sense to do what I did to turn it on. I don't really know what I'm doing."
>You flip on the lights and the voice comes back [Hydraulic fluid now pressurized. Startup is completed.]
>You move the control sticks a bit and the mech stands up.
>You can see an overhead door that looks big enough for the mech to fit through on the wall right of you.

That cab looks open and back-blast in an enclosed space wouldn't be fun.

Threads only an hour old are on page 10.

I was getting worried about the session tonight, but it looks like some of your are starting to realize that the mech isn't invincible. We may actually survive this yet!

It may not be invincible though we can still step on something if it's small enough and have one or two fights in them.

>>25061161
We're just having some bants. We all realize If it was invincible they wouldn't have had this bioform containment problem.

>After fiddling with the controls a bit, you learn that the left stick controls which way the mech walks and the right stick controls the orientation of the cab. You hind hooves don't quite reach the pedals but you compensate with your telekinesis. Pushing one of the pedals forward causes the legs to compress independently, nearly knocking the mech over in the process. You expect that you may be able to make the mech jump if you compress both quickly and you seem to be able to make the mech sort of crawl if you keep both compressed and use the left stick.
>Spearmint speaks up, "According to this display, we have 473 rounds and one missile. Also, I just played with this aiming system a little bit and I don't have much room to aim, so try to keep something we're shooting at in front of us."
>You drive the mech to the overhead door you saw. It appears to be some kind of metal and has no lock. You see two buttons next to the door.
>Nothing has come after you through the door you came in yet as far as you can tell.

What do you do?

we can stay and easily fuck up those outdated bots and the risk will mostly be in some giant monster hearing us. Or we can try to move forward and encounter something potentially unknown.

I say we try the door, playing with bots won't get us out quicker. Park and boop the top button with telekinesis.

>>25066611
Stick your head out and use telekinesis to press the button.

Press the top button since that's typically the one for up.

>Not being dumb you pop open the door, because the window doesn't seem to open, and use your telekinesis to push the top button. This opens the overhead door and you drive the mech through.
>Inside you find what looks like a manufacturing floor.
>Ahead you can see what looks like a smashed widow with some objects floating around it and something that seems to be smoking at the tops of some large structures.
>You see a couple of paths in front of you.
>One leading toward the wall that the window is attached to and one leading more towards the interior.

What do you do?

>>25066987
floating objects concern me because their magic experiments have been nothing but bad news for us so far.

I say interior path.

>>25066987
I'm really curious about the window but I also don't want to be hit with floating objects. Let's go to the interior then. this is going to be the wrong choice isn't it?

>>25067004
>>25067029
>You decide to make your way towards the interior.
>As you continue you notice that the objects in the room quickly block the light from what looked like a window.
>Eventually Spearmint points over. "Is that an elevator?"
>You look over and see what appears to be a large freight elevator.
>Looking around a bit more you notice that the path ahead of you continues up some ramps. it also looks like you may be able to maneuver the mech more into the center of the floor.
>As you pause to think about what to do next, you hear the CB begin to crackle a bit. Which frightens Spearmint for a moment before she realizes what it is.

What do you do?

>>25067228
Does it go up or down?

>>25067303
In the interest of not wasting a post on going to find out. The elevator only goes down from here.

>>25067228
That mech is too cool. Reply on CB, see who's there?

Sorry, it's getting late, I'm gonna call it here for the night.

Stick around and wait for the message to get clearer. Might be able to get something important from it.

Look at Spearmint. See how she's holding up.

>>25079261
can we move while letting the signal get stronger?

if so, I say we should probably keep going up with the radio on.

besides, if it turns out that whatever the signal is talking about isnt trying to end us, we can just check it out later

>>25079261
While watching so we don't walk off a cliff or hit something, try to move the mech for better radio reception. I'd love to know what it's saying!

I'm gonna stop here for the night. Sorry about the short session.

>>25079554
is this it? Are we save?

>>25079554
How the heck did a chopper get in here? Did it crash in through the window? It's interesting that we've got radio contact, I wonder if it's human or machine. We should keep our mech as long as we can, plus the flying bots are a worry so we probably shouldn't get out, much as I'd love a look outside the window.

It's still smoking, so it must have gotten here fairly recently.

bump

>>25079986
>human

>>25080811
This is possibly really bad news or really good news. We possibly have third parties now in the lab.
>Sand blowing in
Possibly really, really bad news. If we're in a desert it's going to suck once we get out without transport or revisions. The mech can move faster than we can, but how's the fuel holding up?

Anyone else for trying to establish communication?

I think this is an artificial intelligence trying to tell us we're doing something unusual and to stand down, but I don't think we can afford to do that just yet. They like formal talk, so I think we should be polite.

"This is mech pilot, I am having trouble with communication systems. Please be aware, that communication systems are erratic. I cannot understand what you are saying. Please identify yourself and continue to repeat message, over."

>>25079554
Have the androids noticed us? if not, try to use the radio.

Don't tell them we're a bioform though, these could be the guys that used to run the place.

>>25079554
>sand
Is this an exit?
Even if it is we still have several problems, first is that there's got to be something in place to prevent all the horrors from escaping this place. Second even if we can get past whatever it is we're still going to need supplies if we want to survive a trip through the desert.

just a reminder that we're in saddle arabia.

>>25090237
I'm interested in this.

>>25090178
I think the robots are going to turn hostile very soon. They've figured out we're not the regular pilot.

I imagine there might be a survivor in there. WE MUST BE THE FIRST AND ONLY TO HAVE DIBS ON THIS WRECKAGE.

Keep a very leery eye on the creatures, but stomp forward. We are big. We are scary. We have a cannon bigger than they are. Go ward the monsters off with our mechanized presence, and possibly some angry mech-foot stomping on the ground if they don't take the hint.

I am far more worried about an angry swarm of combat robots who know how this thing works and how it might be taken down quickly than the random critters on scene.

TLDR: Do not point gun at robots. Yet. They are not hostile. Yet. Do not piss them off. Do not waste ammo on animals. Use angry mech stomps to scare away animals. Investigate wreck for survivors.

We have determined that you are not Mr. Styles and expect this is why you have chosen your current path which is not currently heading to the floor one lobby.

"I guess."

What do you do?

>>25091054
we'll call them back but not yet. They can hopefully repeat that message a few more times.

Look around and make sure they're gone. tell spearmint to get ready to fire, you're going out there and seeing what could be inside. Knock on the door first. They might have been hunting another animal.

>>25091054

>You look over at Spearmint who is silently staring at the display in front of her.
>The CB Continues to repeat it's message.

What do you do?

>>25091604
Pick up the radio and ask about the helicopter.
If these are bargaining chips, win.
If they're irrelevant, nothing really changes.

The robots could attack us at any time, they don't need us to talk to confirm anything. The fact that they're still broadcasting means we're worth something to them.

>>25091604
Let's check the door. I'm not sure about picking up the radio since I don't really have much to say. We could ask what they want with us.

>>25091634
>>25091706
>You start walking the mech over to the door while you pick yo the receiver for the CB.
When Spearmint realizes that you're going to use the CB she starts telling you not to use it but falls into silence with an abrupt squeak as you push the talk button.
"This is the mech pilot, and we know about helicopter."
>The CB goes quiet for a moment, "Yes, we know."
"I'm guessing there's a reason you haven't attacked us yet and I'm guessing it has something to do with this crash."
>"Although your presence is not completely irrelevant, both you and the wreak you have discovered are not currently top priority in your immediate area. As such, we have no intention of pulling resources from higher priority tasks for the purpose of securing you."
"Alright, well in that case,What low priority reason do you have for trying to capture us?"
>"We seek information about your possible partnership with 21-12 and your exploit of our biological systems, as well as a chance to better contain this facility."
"Hold on, I'll get back to you."
>You set the mech down next to the door and instruct Spearmint to sit in the pilot seat and chase off anything that might bug you. You hop out of the mech and slowly open the door. Inside you spot a red wool cap shivering behind a wooden desk.

What do you do?

>>25092024
shits getting real.

Call out to the hat, tell it you're not going to hurt it.

I'm gonna head out early tonight.
In the last few sessions when it hits this time-block I just end up just sitting here listening to Dream Theater and drawing pony butts for like 45 minutes before I get commands for the next action. So I'm call'n her here for the night. Good night to you all.

I don't even know what you're talking about. I don't work here and don't control those dogs. I took this uniform off a dead guards body. I'm actually a pony made by the facility.

>>25104000

This and can we please talk about this when there isn't a pony impaled and bleeding out? I don't want to see anyone else die!

>>25104000
I feel like telling her we got a uniform off a dead person would end well for us.

>>25104029
If we add " He was a skeleton when I found him." it should work out fine.

"GET IN THE MECH!"
>"Fine!
>The two of you climb into the mech and you start driving it back to the crash.
>Spearmint gives you a wide-eyed look, "We need to find a way to turn this radio off."
"Why?"
>"They remember everything and I think they're trying to get to me, emotionally..."
>Putting that aside for the moment you park the mech as close as you can next to the helicopter and rush over to the crash with all of the gauze.
>The stallion is still strapped in his seat and the pole impaling him is sticking through his seat. The pole is sticking through right below his rib-cage.
>The mare in the other seat isn't moving, her bottom half is sandwiched between the scraps from the nose of the helicopter and there is a lot of blood.
>The stallion is gritting his teeth and grunting as he keeps himself pulled up a bit with his hooves on the pole.

What do we do?

>>25104484
First we need to take the seat belt off the stallion. Then we need to pull out the pole. Look on the other side to make sure it's not attached to anything and you can pull it out. Then us and spearmint pull him out of the wreckage and wrap the gauze around him. The pipe should have pushed his organs out of the way.

Who disagrees with this course of action?

>>25104484
Tell him to stay with us, and other reassuring things.

He's probably going to die...

>>25104484
This,
>>25104542
but if we can't pull the pole through, we should lift him off the pole through the windshield. Hopefully it hasn't pierced his chest diaphram or he'll have collapsed lungs and we'll have to treat for that if we can.

>>25104542
Isn't that going to make the bleeding worse? I've always heard that you should never remove an object from a wound as a first responder.

>>25104620
But we're not a first responder... We're an ONLY responder, unless more help can be called in from outside (Which would rock)

To clarify, the pole is still attached to the facility.

>>25104632
OK, well since he's critter-chow if he stays where he's at, I recommend lifting him off the pole through the windshield. Though the new pony we encountered may be traumatized if our actions end up killing this guy, so we might have to take a moment to explain quickly to him that we've been trapped in here for years, and the odds of getting outside help are low to nil, and he's a goner if we don't get him out of there and some wound treatment.

If it's still attached then pegasus needs to help too. Us and spearmint push him up and she pulls.

>>25104484
The one more likely to live is priority, though we should attempt to get the mare out too.

>>25104679
"Hey, we'll get you out of there soon. Just hold on!"
>The stallion opens his eyes and grunts, "Sweet Celestia..."
>You reach down and undo his seat belts with your telekinesis.
"We've got your friend in the vehicle, Just stay with me."
>The stallion looks over at the mare in the other seat of the helicopter, "Son of a bitch, don't listen to a damn thing she says!"
>Spearmint runs up and starts trying to help.
"Where's that mare we picked up?"
>Spearmint just shakes her head and looks back down at the stallion.
>Both you and Spearmint begin to pull the stallion. He's heavy but you begin to start sliding him up. The stallion winces in pain as you move him.
>Eventually you get him out of the cockpit and on to the ground next to the helicopter. Blood is hemorrhaging out and the stallions pupils are dilated.

What do you do?

>>25104864
Wad bandages tightly onto the wounds with any antibiotics we might have for now, and wrap around them with gauze and apply direct pressure, hope for the bleeding to slow.

Have Spearmint see what she can do for the mare while you keep pressure on the stallion's wounds.

>>25104920
Also offer him water from our canteen, if we have any. Helps with blood loss.

If he doesn't bleed out we're going to need a way to transport him, probably the mech or failing that a rolling cart or table. as him walking would be a disaster for the first day or two.

>>25104864
Don't worry, you have two kidneys so think of one like a spare.

>>25104864
Shit we really need better medical supplies for this kind of injury. All we can really do now is what >>25104920
suggested. The key thing here is to apply the best bandage seal we can manage and then maintain as much pressure as possible without preventing him from breathing entirely.
Also check to see if there's a first aid kit or something in the heli, at the very least we should try and get him some pain killers.
Oh and once bandaged we should cover him with something, he's undoubtedly going to go into shock soon and we will need to keep him warm if he's to have any chance of survival.

>>25104947
Moving him as little as possible is good, but don't try giving him water quite yet, of he's in shock it's more likely to make him puke then do him any good.

>>25104864
It's too bad we don't know how to scan him into the building's spawning system, then if he died he'd just respawn.

Though that's also it's own form of hell, as we're well aware.

Maybe we could trade the information the deathbots wanted for a medical droid?

I have to wake up this morning, so I have to stop here. Sorry Goodnight.

>>25105099
That's actually not a bad idea. But what if building security decides to liquidate all intruders? We'd have to be sure any medical droid is devoted to saving them, not killing them.

>>25105109
OK BWH, sleep well!

>>25105111
They have armed robots floating just a little away, if they were programmed for that they'd be doing it, right?

For whatever reason they seem serious about preferring us captured alive and/or not killing these ponies. yet. Plus we saw with the construction terminal that original safety protocols overrides the orders of the security ai.

>>25105122
OK, good idea. Don't even worry about the info part, just get on the CB and say injured ponies, medical emergency, yadda yadda and see what it says.

Maybe we should start patching him up and then use the adrenaline shot? Use our rubbing alcohol to clean the wound and prevent infection.

>>25110677
No adrenaline shot unless he flatlines, it'd raise his bloodpressure and he'd bleed out real bad, I think!

What do you do?

>>25121099
Fuck...
We can respawn and he can't. Use the Adrenaline shot.

>>25121099
He's bleeding heavily and has stopped breathing. Without proper medical attention he's dead. Check the other passenger for a pulse.

>>25121099
We should have asked for medical advice. Use the adrenaline shot or point us towards a medical ward.

>>25121099
Have we got any way to sew the wounds shut? If so, do so while giving occasional CPR/chest compressions.

If not, give a bit of CPR, stuff the wounds as tight as possible, then administer the adrenaline shot and resume CPR.

Cry. Smash the radio.

Then try to leave this fucking hell hole.

>>25121597
Back in the mech. Lets get away from the window.

>>25121597
The odds were against him from the start+we don't know what the hell we're doing. We can take solace that we at least TRIED instead of leaving him there.

Just march forward and don't look back.

>>25121597
At least we saved one survivor, and tried our best with the others. Board the mech, and continue on. See if there are any handy mech fuelling depots around the area.

>>25121597
What's miss whiny redcap been doing all this time? Goddamn are we the only two beings with empathy in this hellhole!?
Anyway I agree with >>25121730
the mech is great but if we can't find some more fuel and ammo it's only going to be a very temporary boon and there's got to be some around here somewhere.

>In a fit of frustration you slam the CB receiver into the mech console a couple of time before throwing it across the cab. After that you start feeling tears run down your face as you try to swallow the lump in your throat.

>You flash her a dirty look as a certain degree of rage wells up inside you.

What do you do?

>>25121936
Should have left you back there if you're going to be so flippant.

Also I love your assumption that this has been all that has occurred recently. Let's just say that this isn't the only thing I have to be upset about.

>>25121936
Lets continue past the door.
"Yeah, why bother helping anyone right? Might as well have left you in that room. After all, I don't even know you."

>>25121936
"They might have been strangers, but I had to try to save them. You might want to consider that I would try just as hard for you, and in fact I'm doing so right now. Nearly every room of this place is full of flying, walking or crawling death, and survival of any of us requires that we look out for one another! Until we get out of here, I need you on the lookout for threats, OK?"

>>25121953
>>25121991
>>25122007
"Are you really suggesting that I shouldn't help strangers, like you?"
>"You can help who you want, but I wouldn't cry about them."
"You know, I love how you just assume that that stallion is the only thing I have to cry about. Do you have any idea about what this place is."
>"No, and that's why I'm here. This place isn't supposed to be here and I want to tell the world what it is. The Name's Photo Bomb by the way. Not like you where gonna ask."
"Well,Photo bomb this whole facility is full of flying, walking or crawling death, and survival of any of us requires that we look out for one another. I didn't save you because I needed to, and I want you to remember that next time you open your mouth."
>"Sheesh. Whatever, just take me to your leader or whatever you weirdos do in here." She pulls a camera out of her hat and snaps a picture of the area outside the mech.
>As you continue further the path leads down. eventually you come towards a room marked "Production" with the path continuing past it.
>Photo Bomb turns to Spearmint, "Since the ice queen over there doesn't seem to want to talk, how about you? What's your deal?"
>Spearmint gives her an uneasy look, before briefly looking over at you as if she's asking for permission to do something, "My name is Spearmint and we're trying to find a way out of here?"
>The pegasus sighs, "Did you try the front door?"
>Spearmint stares at her hooves, "No..."

That's it for tonight. I wont be able to run tomorrow so yeah. Good night.

>>25122279
Maybe we should tell her that we can spill the beans once we find someplace safe to hunker down. Also, that there is a psycho pegasus running around killing blokes, and that if she forgets the whole 'don't bring a wall of flesh, steel and teeth down on our heads" rule there's no guarantee a locked room can help her.

>>25122410
Those darn psycho pegasi.

>>25122279
The front door means going past the robots.

bump

>>25122279
Several problems with the front door.
1) We don't really know where it is exactly and even if we did many of the corridors are completely impassible.
2) As previously mentioned depending on which end of the facility you head towards you'll either run into monsters emerging from the depths or machines trying to kill anyone heading for the exits.
3) Even if we did find the door all we really know is out there is lots of desert and trading death by monster or robot for death by dehydration/exposure isn't really all that great.

So right now we're trying to find more supplies, a way out and some information on what's exactly outside.

Oh and FYI if you see a pegasus stallion about speak up immediately, the psycho is copy cloned by the facility every time he dies and has taken to hunting sapients for fun.

>>25126378
We should really ask her what things are like on the outside.

>>25122279
You know redcap mare is acting quite strange. I mean she's just been through a major crash and seen her companions die and seems pretty unfazed. While that could be explained by her being a jaded war reporter or something there's still the fact that when presented with a FILLY wearing a guard uniform in an abandoned facility her first thought is that we work there? Also she's yet to seem surprised by the fact that aside from age and damage we look identical to Spear, and some of what that stallion said before he died "Son of a bitch, don't listen to a damn thing she says" and "She killed us, she fucking killed us!" again while this might have been shock and trauma talking I still think we should be wary of our new companion.

Time for a bump.

>>25131114

>>25122279
We don't know how to get to the front door. Trying to ask for directions means asking a bunch of robots who have been given orders to capture and/or outright kill us.

You may or may not be in a state of shock right now, so whenever you start to feel like the reality of the situation is about to hit you, let us know. Last thing we need is a pony freaking out while we're trying to keep quiet.

Production? Hey, Spearmint, you think there might be anything useful in there?

>There is something off about this mare. You're not really sure about her. Maybe this is just how she is coping after surviving a crash like that, but you start thinking about what the pilot said about her before he died. No, it was probably just the shock.
"Look, Photo Bomb? I understand that you probably just went through a lot but there are things in here. We can't just go to the front door because there is an army of death-bots guarding it. As well as a psycho pegasus who may be hunting us right now."
>"Yeah, kid. I see what you're doing here. And, I guess I should tell ya thank you for chasing those things away earlier. I guess."
"You're welcome. I swear, when we find some place safe we'll tell you everything we know about this place. but for now maybe you could help us out with something. what is it like outside? The building I mean!"
>"Do you two really not know what this place is like outside."
"No, I've never been outside further than this walkway between floors 12 and 14."
>Photo Bomb give you a concerned look, "Well, right now there's a sandstorm and a bunch of rocks are all around this area because it's in sort of a canyon. On top of the building I thought I saw some kind of a hanger and I saw an old looking road leading away from this place.also, this building is big, like, I don't know how they got this much shit out here big. What is this place anyway?"
"The computers keep calling it the Patwrite facility."
>"Like the consumer electronics company?"
"I wouldn't know."
>"I think they made my toaster..."
"That's interesting. Hey Spearmint!"
>Spearmint perks her ears up and smiles a bit at you, "Yes?"
"What do you think about this room marked Production? Do you think there is anything useful in there?"
>"I'm not sure, usually those rooms are full of control panels. Sometimes you can find sealed food though.

What do you do?

>>25161688
we haven't eaten in forever, should take a look.

I wonder how long it will take for her to notice we don't seem to have a name.

>>25161688
So what made her come out here and who were those other ponies?

>>25161688
We DO have an extra mouth now and she probably doesn't know the joy of pokey...

btw bath, where you the guy who is going to do the halloween quest thing?

>>25161688
I just had a rather concerning thought, she's a pegasus if she wanted to she could sabotage a helicopter mid flight and still get out without harm.

>>25161863
I'm guessing she's an investigative reporter who wanted to get close to this big mystery facility in the desert and hired the helicopter. Helicopter pilots probably wanted to leave when the deathbots showed up and she did something stupid that forced them in [grabbed the controls?] and caused the crash.

>>25161688
Yeah, check out the Production room.
>>25161873
I really doubt she intentionally crashed it, even as a pegasus she'd be hard-pressed to avoid the whirling top wing while getting clear. That said, she might have leaned too far over the pilot to get a good zoom pic.

>>25161863
>Thinking about how coincidental it is that Photobomb would be out here, you decide to ask her another question.
"By the way Photo Bomb, Why did you come out here with those other ponies anyway?"
>She laughs a bit to herself, "I was following some leads I had for a story on illegal military research. Some conspiracy nuts told me about this place and when I got in contact with my official sources, I learned the place was legit."
"What about the other two ponies?"
>"What about them?"
"Who were they?"
>She sighs, "They were just some local pilots I paid to fly me in close. They where the only ones I could convince to go in ahead of a sandstorm so we could avoid being escorted away from the area."
"Okay, I guess. Hey Spearmint I'm feeling a little hungry, do you think it's worth it to look for food in there?"
>"Yes."
"Alright, we're going then."
>>25161732
>>25161868
>>25161928
>The two of you park the mech, grab your weapons leaving everything else in the cab and enter the room leaving Photobomb in the mech.
>As you enter Spearmint speaks up, "When we were in the mech and you rushed out. That mare told me that saving the pilots was a waste of time. Something isn't right about her."
"Yeah, I know. She might just be scared though. Either way, let's watch her carefully.
>Inside you find an active terminal that looks different from the ones you've seen so far . as well as some webbing. You also find the supplies to make coffee and a large sack.
>Spearmint whispers, "We can eat these eggs if we get them, but they're a little bit heavy. It doesn't look like this room has a proper lobby. I don't think we'll find much else."

What do you do?

>>25162109
The mech has headlights could we angle it so we can get a better look at the room?

>>25162109
Examine the console. We've got the mech in case it summons killer robots.

>>25162121
.
otherwise knock on that sack with the crowbar or whatever the proper harvesting procedure is. coffee is nice but i'd rather have fresh water.

>>25162283
>>25162313
>You and spearmint get the egg sack down to bring with you.
>Before you head off to the mech you check the terminal. This terminal controls which machines this room produces. There seems to be a wide selection of various robots but options for other items like vehicles are marked as unavailable at this terminal.
>As you continue t look through the terminal's catalog Spearmint yelps in pain.
>You pull out your crowbar and look back.
>A creature is on Spearmint clawing at her with it's legs.

It's late, I'm going to stop here for the night.

>>25162400
Let's wack the damn thing real fucking hard with our crowbar

>>25162400
Can we pick it up in our magic? We can beat it like a pinata then.

Destroy monster with crowbar! Careful not to hit her legs of course.

>>25163204
Hindcrab! It is going to take over her rump!

>>25162400
those look like spider fangs. magic its head, don't let it bite her.

Beat the shit out of it and then that pegasus for not being on watch.

>>25162400
"Spear, kick it off!"

Go at it with a crowbar once it is pushed back or kicked by her. This feels like a trap somehow, like if we just go at it with our tool, it'll hurt her for sure.

Do we have research material on these guys? im going to go through pineapple.

>>25163382
That's our rump!

>The legs press on the sides of the doorway, causing it to start buckling until concrete is broken away from the entrance. The larger creature begins emerging from the smoke as Spearmint begins firing in small controlled bursts.
>At first the creature moves back, but after a few hits, the creature resumes it's progress.
>You notice that the smaller creatures are approaching the mech's feet.

Man I'm tempted to try a missle, but I think we're too close. Can we walk backward without falling off anything, then hit that sucker with a sidewinder? Anyhow keep peppering it with the machinegun, that can't be doing it any good.

bumpy

So, I'm actually going to be busy with some shit that just cropped up this weekend so I'm not going to have enough time to run any quests. As such, it might be best to let the thread die here since I'll be swamped until at least Tuesday.
As an extra bonus That person who decided that 11-54 needed to end here can have the satisfaction of writing the ending if I die or something and don't come back!

But seriously, I've only had someone pretend to be me 2 times and both times, no artwork. I am so very disappointed.

So yeah, That's what's going on. I'm going to get back to work.

This would be a good end as far as I'm concerned. Fuck, I love Spearmint so much.

>>25182627
That wasn't a canon ending, somebody was just shitposting.

>>25177786
Missing the chance for a "Game Over YEEEEEAH!"

>not ending with snuggling spearmint in the cushions of our mech as we ride out into the sunset

tuesday, but we'd be at 450 posts of bumps anyway so we should just let her pass.

>>25195211
pass where?

>>25195834
Let the thread fall off the board. There is no point in keeping it alive because bath isn't posting.
