back ladies and gentlemen we're here we're ready for some new boot goofing and some boot desktop let's turn it over to ding dong kinkongs yep we got lock and Albert that are being escorted by a legacy or insecurities officer in Hasmak here so going down the corridor to the I'm gonna use that word a lot tonight because I don't have a better word for it but you are down the heading down the main umbilical and towards the central spire and you it's the this main umbilical is wide enough that a small like cargo like vehicle could be moved down like a like the kind you see in airports that move fat people are the disabled about that size vehicle like pass through here pretty easily and you this guy looks nervous and you see him keep going up to his his head piece presumably the talk and you hear the muffled sounds of him trying to communicate he's not using a speaker to project you just hear it through his Hasmak here he's not getting anybody no I kind of gently put my hand on his shoulder let's just let's just focus on what we can do right now grabs are clearly down take us to a place we'll get our suits we'll see what we can do right and he with the with the grace and clarity of someone who thinks that they may die but is coming to terms with it moves down the hallway and into the central spires so as we're going so tell me about that body what do you know yeah so this is like during the like the ER or like medical drama like give me the walk and talk yeah walk and talk it's like the cameras in front of you and like facing you as you walk down so lock knows that like whenever he's been to a medical facility the nurse gathers like pre-information before the doctor comes in and then re-askes all those questions yes so he's asking all these preliminary diagnostic questions what he thinks might be diagnostic questions in relation to this event that's going on right so tell me about tell me about what you've seen about these bodies where what do you know well they were discovered in one of the wings of the diaspora housing that were are under construction we're not entirely sure it's the symptoms of whatever this is or are strange and we command no one really understands what it could be first one you've seen yourself the first one the first one in that stage of the infection yes we've been more finding what we what we think might be the early stages of the infection common signs are deep dark veins around the ear canal and eyes inability for the individual to communicate they look confused and afraid usually we one of my friends was actually he was on duty down in that part of the station and he said that they came at him like they weren't even human like some kind of animal just violent without any regard for self-preservation they'd screamed and and spoke in a language that none of us could understand it didn't even really have syllables it was just it was strange no let's let's get those suits right right shouldn't be too much farther do you know how people get infected you know we're taking every precaution we're trying to quarantine people to keep them safe in places where we know the infection hasn't spread to but oh the chancellor we can't find her either so she's security officers in charge it's a mess outside of game where we was a chancellor the person that we were interrogated by yes no you are interrogated by you were somebody high in taiyashi corp yes not necessarily tied to the political wing or whatever okay yeah you basically got in trouble by like because it was there shit that we blew that we go yeah yeah and then space Walmart turned you into the police and said hey they broke a bunch of shit sounds just like fuck as well mark does fuck those guys yeah we haven't seen one in this in that stage of the infections the first one oh god right so focus yes okay here turn okay personnel all right here and he makes a sharp right and you come to the end of the umbilical and all along the umbilical it's like there's no one the umbilical is like the length of a football field and it's just deserted and he doesn't seem to like make note of it or he's not telling you that he notices but you too should notice that this umbilical is have you guys successfully quarantine this place why is there nobody here um I was thinking that myself probably just a security precaution there's a second set of doors beyond this umbilical that keeps the central spire cut off from the rest of the station but if you'll just come with me there's suits and gear in the personal quarters here and he goes up to a door and punches in a code and the little I watch his hand and memorize the code nice you have the code memorized it's 6969 of course or 969 it's always depends no matter how you're floating it's always especially in space not gonna lie when I got a new cell phone number I got to choose from like seven and I picked the one that had 69 and I mine 69 to the only one with 69 in his phone that's funny because when you spell out my number it's scissors no he leads you which it was now got into what's a base into what's basically like a barracks there's a bunch of bunk beds and foot lockers at the foot of each bunk and then beyond the bunk beds would be like some showers and other stand-up lockers and says here hey just just relax we know what we're looking for okay oh let's let's get what we need I'll watch the door yeah keep guard as we're walking away I'm like we just need to get armed as fuck yep and block single don't run and scream attack people I know this is I'm starting to think that they haven't successfully tied any of this down this and the absence of people isn't because they've got it under control the people aren't here any there's somewhere else let's go we need this guy's put in our hands but let's we need his information anyway yeah he's our way in so we're gonna start looking for like gear and I'm any weaponry I can find but I really want to get some fucking some sort of respiratory filter shit in front of my face yeah so you have you don't find any hazmat gear but you had their vac suits available that you can put yourselves into which would do the job of creating a contained air really the difference between a hazmat suit and this vac suit is the hazmat suit is maybe more specifically insulated against like liquids or acids or anything like that are there any riot helmets or any security helmets that could like block my face yes so here's what you find and yeah so as we're finding this gear I just your I say I'm sorry I didn't get your name my name is Locke do you have access to any of the computers we'd like to get is anything is there anything locally running dr. Quang can try to look at some of the information if anybody's submitted any of this to any kind of a log or anything we could try to check and see it now yeah there's a com terminal over there it should be up and running like can you give them access yeah the password is 69 69 perfect sorry sweet every password on the station it's one two three four sequential 420 so 8 0 0 8 5 yeah I'll start gathering up what I think is valuable gear we're gonna load that fucking cart up and Albert checks the log for that stuff so hold so hold that thought really quick because I'll get you your loot really quick because that requires the most bookkeeping there's a table for loot loot one of these fucking buttholes what are these yeah I think maybe before going over the panel like Albert puts on the hazmat suit and puts on a helmet underneath the hazmat suit vaxx suit is it a vaxx suit yeah it's a vaxx suit there are no hazmat suits gotcha shit hell no hell no okay so you find I got some grease self-greathing stop it like when these monsters a film of Carmex the Carmex B yeah so you can find standard the equivalent to a the extermination pack minus the frag grenades they would not have in a in a hard vacuum I don't know if I explain this but if you find a frag grenade and use them in a place with a vacuum it's not a good idea so the other stuff you find roll 2 D 100 for me so each of you roll it to 100 55 all right 55 you find some artisanal chocolates hell yeah they will relieve to stress if you eat them what did you roll 64 yeah oh cool you find a crossbow with 2 D 10 bolts fuck so I think you throws of space you find a fucking crossbow and you find some goddamn Lindor trouble I need to relieve some stress and I think you find other stuff but that's like the story for 2D where I added together oh no it's just the it's a 100 yeah it's just a 100 roll no for the number of bolts oh I'm sorry I'm not gonna probably don't find 99 no you would you would be 2 D 10s all right you're saying yeah I find 10 bolts nice how's that that's good good and you have the stats for a crossbow no I do not because I don't know if they exist I think they just put them in this book that's great so we'll we'll do that live later as long as I can retrieve the bolt can reuse it absolutely nice maybe space Dwayne or whatever the fuck his name is I'm walking yeah oh I thought I'm not doing it's a Daryl fucking close base close enough darrel Dixon darrel Dixon that's my name now careful yeah lock picks up this crossbow and his whole personality it's like his eyes changed my hair immediately goes in front of my face I look unwashed yeah I write a motorcycle through the umbilical I should watch the walking dead I should watch on man don't watch season 2 it sucks but if you get the farm yeah I fucking hated that shit with the old man Herschel don't give me that old man love you I do love me an old man anyway so I got a crossbow we could figure it out yep well when when I'm not on you when I'm not talking about on me buddy just look through the weapons and try to find like an equivalent all right I'll do that so so that's what you find called the quanginators on the computes what I'm doing is I'm putting a bunch of stuff on this cart all this useful stuff and loading it up on that cart well I think the guy is just kind of standing there in his shakiness yeah all right yeah Albert starts going through the terminal while eating the start his little chocolates and they're really good how good are they roll computers roll computers to find out all right so I'm good at computers and I have actually hacking skills so should I use oh yeah use the better skill if there's a skill connected you always use the better cool so that's plus 15 and what am I adding it to intellect please so that would be intellect 49 so 64 and I rolled a seven or no I rolled a 47 so you succeed yeah and and tell me specifically what you're looking for in the computer I'm looking for any recent entries from anyone that has any details about the nature of this infection or the behavior of the infected okay nature of infection how many degrees of success did you get what's a degree of success so 10 oh so I rolled a 47 and my intellect would have been what did I say it was 64 64 so that's I'm I can't do math right now my head I know it's okay just try your best oh my god one degree of success is it yeah yeah okay so I can give you I can give you these two things okay so you you discover first of all this com terminal has stopped updating with the central communication array for about three hours now damn so you only have logs up to that three hour point and then comms are dead so there's no network communication traffic so the nature of the infection was the first thing you were looking for yes you discover communication between several field personnel and central legacy or in security central office describing the first reports look to be they're described as typical Diashi workers you get the kind of stuff that like cops would be like oh it's just classic these they're just they're pissed off about wages again or like another ships been delayed so yeah initially it just seems like people were upset and angry and there were instances of assault and several people had been cut up and and beat up yeah and over time over the next few hours you get more and more reports of these happening in the sub levels of wing three which is or location three is what we'll call it but the Diashi Corp housing part of the station okay and the reports become more and more violent use and I think we watch as you scroll through and we do that that shot from like silence of the lambs where she's going through like the newspapers and it's that just that close a micro film yes and it's just like but instead we're seeing like the close-up of the of your computer monitor and we're getting like the big bold words in the report like multiple individuals bitten cannibal possible question mark taken into custody too violent to be placed with other prisoners so you're getting these reports of an initial infection that looks like when it starts people become super naturally violent and or not super naturally that's not like it's they become extremely unnaturally violent they cannot communicate and it doesn't look like they understand communications to them right but it does look like they communicate to each other in some weird way so Albert pauses at that and his mind races with ideas of what this could be immediately it seems like a parasite but then having seen the person on the ground covered in the goo it seems more macro level than that and also the fact that they communicate with each other means that this organism is somehow self-replicating and is intelligent enough that it can have its own communication and so it would make sense for any kind of virus to like alter someone's language center the same exact way unless it had intent to do that and so then his mind goes back to his dad and thinks about the AI that his dad was working on for just a brief second then he comes back to reality and says to lock we need to get off the station oh and the guy who you now know his name is Paul Staley nice it turns and oh well there's no way we can leave I mean we got it we got to get the station under control it's not under control the station is lost yeah stick with us we'll get you out of here no you don't understand I have friends on here friends are dead Al let's let's use a little bit of bedside manner look at me your friends are dead exactly and I turn I say exactly and I stared him like he is and if you want to live we need to get off the station so he fails his fear check he you see him like you see him very slowly look it looks like he's not trying to make his movements noticeable but he's slowly like moving his hand towards the grip of the rifle don't do that Paul please don't do that you gotta understand we've he's dealt with things similar to this it's the canary in the coal mine you don't want to be you got you got to understand this is your shot you get if you grab that gun remember your training anything's like yourself proud he thinks back to like the really shitty like the really bad fifteen hour seven are they watch that he watched like how did not discharge your firearm and it's doing yes really bad new theme for the show his mind's racing you see is and you lock specifically see his eyes are like dilated you know this look on a man who's looks like he's close to making some kind of yeah Paul don't do this we can get you out of here if we're going to save the station we have to go through the central spot we need you you're important you can make a I guess you would make some sort of there's persuasion yeah do that okay I mean I don't have that I can try yep can I assist with what I'm doing is there yeah I'm a mechanism for that yeah so assisting means that he can flip the results that he rolls okay so we're kind of working the guy together yeah about about it so I'll flip it and that's a twenty twenty nine until it's forty nine that's two orders make so he's gonna make a fear role and he'll get advantage so it's and it doesn't matter he rolls a seventy six everyone roll make a speed role for me okay and if you have any I guess sorry really quick if you have military training if you have firearms or you have what you say athletics athletics would be a skill that you could use what if I have both of those whichever gives you the higher bonus use that I spend a stress to reroll my tens yes you can yeah I might I'm I'm making sure that you gain a stress yes yes I don't need to yeah sorry charity guy I'm just making sure everyone's clear on the roll Tim fucking nerd god what did you roll I rolled a twelve what did you roll I rolled shit okay so I I did beat it by two orders of magnitude okay in this case I created but we technically would have had it just gives me another order of magnitude so we would have tied so ties go to the player so you get to act first so I'm using close quarters combat and as soon as so this actually might be interesting from Albert's perspective not necessarily knowing much about lock we're seeing this side anyway as he starts really looking I can kind of tell he's about to pull the trigger and I move and it's like this arm bar move that is just really painful and I crop crop yeah it's like the thing where I use his way against him and I take his arm and Ben is is is elbow yeah his elbow but his trigger finger elbow up by his his head and I it's kind of like to sing when you bend a body a certain way it can only go one direction he's immediately on the ground and he is prone yeah and he's just or we can see if no let's do a contest no no I mean that that happens he breaks out Nicole's been a sweat and he's lying on the deck now disarmed and he's just panic breathing and looking at the two of you it's like any then he just starts crying and just stopping to himself he's not possibly is kick the gun aside out would you grab that yes and I'd look at my go Paul you're either with us or you're against us you gotta come with us buddy we need your help if you can't collect yourself we're gonna lock you in this room he critically fails he just starts he just cries harder now right so I take any useful shit off him I put him in a lock him in a room okay he has a legacy or an ID badge yep and he's in a hazmat suit but I if you try to take that off him that might we might have to roll like for that but otherwise he's got the pulse rifle and he has how much ammunition for that so each pulse rifle comes with three shots so you can shoot it three times before reloading so he's got one additional clip of ammunition for his pulse rifle so total six combat firings okay are you familiar with weapons like this yeah okay here you go I hand it to him thank you and I mean this thing is these are one some of the most weapons in space I don't know your combat rating is I'm sure it's not as high as me but it doesn't matter that's a funny thing yes I am here you go yeah yeah cool so yeah the pulse rifles are just how are they in I mean they're basically described from alien right they should that's the main weapon of the space marine yeah or the colonial marine or whatever you want to call it yeah they should they're just mean mean you but that might be one of those ones if you uncork it you might shoot everything in the clip pulse rifle is mechanics wise yep so do do do do yes it's fully automatic so if you're not trained in firearms you shoot the whole clip when you shoot one time oh boy so you essentially have two shots in it okay but we don't know that right right no I dig that so what so he Albert gets it he looks really confident I believe in him I take the submachine gun that I found earlier nice you see I strap it military style to myself I get the crossbow I load up and I'm ready terrible now I am there all now no Dale no it was Duane Dark Darksin dark dark socks dark sock dash hound Duane dark socks thanks charity you're really help let's get on this fucking thing and yeah I don't know yeah let's boogie so well we need a pilot luckily we know one right wait who we need a pilot yeah we gotta go find our pilot who Frankie oh I don't know if we can reach her now honestly she is on the other end of the station we left her at those capsules by this point everything always checkpoints I mean well let's make our way to the center spire see if we can get away in there because if we're there we can get everywhere close easier yeah and we have to get there to get to the the shipping bay yes all right okay good yep okay cut to the pond Frankels Frankels Frankels you passed through so you're now covered in like some of this goo after having obliterated this thing skull and you you pick up Gene Simons and head into the center spire can I ask a question yeah what are those people that were shot look like they look they look normal they didn't have the veins they didn't have the weird they didn't look weird except they're dead they were in blood okay blood yeah so I go through the door and I grab Gene and I take his that's my thing wow I love it when people fight over it inside joke inside joke insight joke all right it's my turn now oh I'm sorry I pick up Gene yeah I take his badge off of him and I stick in my pocket okay and then how much else do you have by the way now 67 okay so then we I drag him further away from the opening of the door maybe like around a corner and like bust his shirt open and I take it off and I wipe the goo off of myself okay you were goo list now goo list this is a ritual you're very familiar with busting the goo I like college busting the shirt open is my favorite yes yes busting makes me feel good busting hagu wah if I may bust that shirt open yeah so now and I do I do I see all the hairless no he's normal so oddly hair ish he's haired he's haired he's here okay so I and I check his uh vital signs is hard is he dead no he's just unconscious okay he looks like if he doesn't get medical attention in the near-ish future he may pass tight okay so I pick him up again and uh and uh what and uh sorry major distraction uh I'll put it away your dongle uh fuck I'm all not okay so yeah we just we carry on down this hallway you see more signs of uh combat down this corridor you see that there's like bullet marks on the walls there's shell casings on the floor are there any bodies there are no bodies okay and uh this hallway you now head to a thing on the ceiling that reads administrative office offices this way there's like diaspora now this way or basically it's just a bunch of like mishmash if you've ever been like in a like a skyscraper where you've got like different floors or different offices for different companies you find like large sections are for ex-company and there are no people here who I was empty and quiet fuck up don't like it okay um roll uh roll if fear save for me really quick it's a 63 and my fear is 35 okay you uh you jump at a sound from behind you as a deck plate like slams to the ground that old chestnut okay that's it I pick up the pace uh you know that there's more and more signs of combat there's like pools of blood but there's no bodies and the pools of blood look to like the body was dragged maybe like there's this pool of blood and then these drag marks that move the bodies and the bodies are pulled into there's like small access shafts and mechanics like a mechanical ventilation and these trails all along the hallways like lead into these various holes and you come to a uh a four-way intersection well you round a corner come to a four-way intersection not the intersection you see that there are men in well not mesh and say that there are people in red and white hazmat suits with guns and flashlights and you your eyes are immediately blinded by flashlight like in your eyes and you hear a man's voice the whole whole story you are I stop who are you doing you are my name is Frankie Murondo I was up just holding up on this station wait I where's the chancellor she should move lay down put your weapon down and lay down on the ground this guy needs help real bad comply or you will be fired upon so I set him down and I'd lay down you hear the sounds of like boots steps come towards you and maybe in the corner you look and see that most of the men with the light out of your eyes you can better make out their position at this intersection they've got barricades set up and two of them are at the barricades with guns pointed at you and then two more have come out and are walking towards you and they are scanning like the walls and the ceiling behind you and they one of them checks the guy first it's one of ours get the medic over here and they pick him up by his shoulder straps and start dragging him towards their barricade there's it there in the walls no shit we know that how'd you get here I was in the whatever it was called I was in the barracks that I was staying here which acts how did you get in here which acts as way did you get through I follow the directions from that guy you just drag drug away fuck and you see he turns to one of the other guys and they're having a conversation I think that means checkpoint three is gone yeah we need to move back we need to move back to the we need to move back to the port now y'all need to get to the central spire we're in the central spire oh good well then I'm just gonna carry on my way then and don't mind me but I did kill one of those things back there and there might be another one coming this way but they're over here and you hear the sound of a pulse rifle the sound is so loud and deafening because you're in this hallway and these things are meant to be used not in a confined space like this and have you been around guns like shot him so you know especially if you've been in a gun range like just the hollow like being inside of a tin can sound in the like river variation yeah you feel it in your eardrums the sounds of gunfire come from the other side of the barricade it hits you in your chest yeah and the two that we're talking to you immediately pivot away from you and you feel the flashlights like come off of you we're no longer looking at you and you hear the sounds of shooting come from the intersection where this checkpoint is so is it like dark in the station mm-hmm the lights have changed from the normal like day or night illumination to the just amber emergency illumination because it makes a lot sense for lighting to be bad when there's an emergency right I've always thought that it's like you would think it'd just be white light everywhere so oh I can finally tune this little thing that saves us all red the company's an installer like red and flashing yeah a lot of like loud clacks just blasting out of various places go to emergency mode make it very different to work everybody like the companies that install it are like do you want the hissing pipes we'll take the hissing pipes as long as we get the flashing reds well you've already paid for the flashing red package so the hissing pipes actually come with that and for an extra charge we get the dangling change value i think amber would look better for all the dead bodies well with my color palette for sure i'm a autumn Frankie what do you do you're lying prone on the ground and you hear this gunfire coming you went down because you went down to because I went down oh that's like holding me down no no no that's just a man this is figurative I want to stand up okay you do that and I want to go so you so you get a look at what's happening now so um Frankie is right here um and directly ahead of you is this uh I don't know they're probably 30 feet away from you is this intersection where these barricades have been put up and the barricades are these like you shaped metal steel objects that have like gun ports in them and on the front is just it reads like los legacy orange securities and uh no one is looking at you right now you see that the five security officers have their guns trained the opposite direction of you and are firing fully automatic down this corridor at whatever is down there okay the light from the muzzle flash of their guns illuminates and creates like this flickering bright light in the corridor so is there any indication of where the other directions go like does this go towards the whatever this goes deeper into the central spire and this would go like around like around the perimeter of the spire so if we think of the spires set up in like rings yeah yeah um where the shit is coming from is in from the center of the ring and these other hallways you're left to right would go presumably around the perimeter of the ship okay tight so I want to hop this barricade that's in front of me and then take up left my left okay oh you just leave these guys oh you can okay great yeah yeah no problems I stole my gun right yeah fuck yeah um and you know jeans diamonds sorry help me and you hop over the barricade and you see that there's like there's some supplies here there's like some some more gear if you wanted to spend more time to take stuff you totally could but if you just want to bail you can do that too I think I put a big gash on my arm too right I'm worried about that right about my gash I am as as are we all oh you got nice uh okay uh okay rewind so I'll get a gash go on how that barricade and can I see which direction which direction they took a homeboy to medical they just brought him into the barricade oh so he's just lying like amongst like other guns and ammo boxes and med packs like unconscious then there's like bullets empty shell cases that are like hitting him in the head is there like lying there is there like a medic kit yeah okay sweet I'm gonna pick homeboy up and a medic pack and we're gonna take off left down the hallway rad yeah I don't think I'll let me in without him rad let you know where anywhere he's like a big fancy heavy key card yeah just swipe his body I have his badge but I like if there's people there then they'll be like why does this bitch have an element one of the progressive name your parents are very cool yep you dragging down this corridor and uh the sounds of gunfire become more and more distant and you you then hear the the sounds of men screaming and then the sound of gunfire stops cool that doesn't that's not bad it means they fixed it yeah they win because because you don't hear the cheering that would have happened because you're too far away yep you you make it to a small uh another intersection it's mostly abandoned uh but there is a custodial uh area that has like a bunch of mops and buckets and stuff that they would use to clean um there's some other rooms but you you presumably this is an area that if you wanted to treat him you could okay yeah I'll do that and as far enough out of the way um you've like me under down some hallways and some left some rights I do a quick sweep of this area uh make sure there's nothing fishy going on no smells like beef cool and uh I lay this beef cake down and they can feel better oh um all right so like uh first aid kit he's got a thing about like doing it when you know you might die no yeah evolve in there go out with a blaze of glory it's hard to focus so uh first aid adds plus ten percent it never happens to me because i'm never that i'm almost gonna die scenario yeah it really lived so it's kind of like you know auto-erotic asphyxiation but like without all the plastic bags and then yeah yeah dimming the coffee mic so inside of the uh medical kit um you find six stim packs stim packs are really good uh you can also get addicted to them if you use them too much but what they can't what they do is grant immediate 2d 10 health and increase strength and combat by 2d 10 each for 1d 10 hours um so you can this guy's bleeding is no longer a problem because you fixed that earlier but his uh like lack of consciousness is a thing so if you want to use a stim pack on him you could to like revive him and get him so you're not like dragging this fatty boomba lad y'all over yeah i i want to stab him with my stim pack okay um okay so he fails his body save so he's addicted now he won't fail my body save like good lord this is a family podcast yeah i said while you're gonna have to put an age verification on the front of the site now parental advisory we will not be tamed um did you cannot tame you shall not take he does the thing from pulp fiction where oh he just sits back up and gasps oh my god um oh hey and then he starts looking around where are we central spire oh fuck uh i killed one of those things what things all right you saw a live one yeah fuck it got my arm pretty good but oh shit here and he looks at the med pack and looks at your arm and takes out some gauze and axles oh sorry begins blotting out it to clean it a little bit um and take some like bio foam and sprays it into the wound to seal it takes a patch and puts over it he's like it will be sore for a while but that should keep it from getting infected thanks uh okay oh man that's stim pack i forgot how good that feels uh great what are we doing where are we going we're getting out of here great i am in favor of that we're getting off this station sure i got to wait i got some friends here there's a complete security lockdown how are we getting out of here hasn't stopped me before ain't about to stop me now okay um great uh so all right we're in central spire let's see we're over by we're not going back that way oh definitely not point to where we came from here i think if we and then you hear the sound of a deck plate burst out of the wall and slam down cool um you're so you're kind of tucked away in a uh little room here you hear it come from somewhere out in the in the hallway so what 40 50 feet away yeah okay when i hear that i grab him and slap my hand over his mouth and like pull him and myself like deeper into this little space that we're in okay uh cut over to ding dong and kinkong just to be clear which one switch doesn't matter okay uh it's interchangeable so you're driving this little little uh cart thing um yeah heading into the central spire well i'm sorry all right yeah go um you head through a book and the further you drive in here the further you see that there is like been some heavy combat that has taken place here you see like bullets uh pockmarked walls but no bodies until a deck plate like explodes from the ceiling and slams into your little supply vehicle make a piloting or is that driving make a driving role for me using speed i'm really good at this by the way we will be crashing all right oh can i spend the stress well not to flip a stress will just get you to reroll the test oh okay um i barely miss i miss it by two okay wow so we you it's not that the thing hits you but you're like steer out of the way oversteers and the thing flips and rolls oh she makes body saves for me i don't okay uh is it zero zero zero that's 100 that's 100 that's a hundred in three you max so you can max it um so you you like wipe out and hit a wall but albert is launched into the air and you see him crunch up against a uh like part of the deck that maybe there's like some reinforcement that goes around the side and he like slams his shoulder into it and you hear a loud like snap like a twig snap um albert you have a condition broken arm i've heard of it using two handed weapons um you roll a disadvantage and then uh your um uh that's it okay and uh you you hear uh just for convenience is sake um so the same time this thing crashes you hear another um deck plate crash and then you hear this cavalcade of metal crunching into other metal and you hear the sounds of um like two people that like slam into the deck and maybe you hear like are in the distance here king con far far in the distance here hoomis yank yeah you hear uh you hear a quang you hear a loud quang okay and um actually what you hear is oh fuck al are you are you all right you hear al and you recognize lockspoys is there a thing in the room no no no not where not in your room right out there potentially tight side okay uh so frankie's ears and i'm sorry ears perk up like a dog uh her eyes kind of get wild because she recognizes that voice and uh she still has her mouth over her mouth over his mouth no uh her hand over his mouth you're like quiet no what no what no what no what sorry you guys we're gross it's fine uh uh so we move quickly and quietly out of this little space and towards their voices you move out of the space towards them uh you see a shirtless frankie emerge from the closet i'm wearing overalls yeah but like at this point things are out in places things have happened yeah to shelled it well there's no bras in space no no you you're covered you're not thank you swinging them wide i kind of want them to be out the sides yeah they can't come back to you like when you fall asleep with a tank top up yeah yeah it's the best jesus we don't even know each other that well you do not get to see frankie's titties yet hey times like these crazy titties like these that's right well frankly i'm going over to frankie frankie frankly goes to bollywood i'm going over to um oh al over there and making sure he's in like it's not in half or something sounded pretty aggressive so i'm like what the how would i kind of start trying to pick him up no no no oh shit um hey i gotta i got these things i have a couple of them but they're restroom i think probably uh oh fuck oh hey they're frankie huh and that's where we'll take our second break don't go anywhere we'll be right back with a little um itty bitty teensy wingsie final part two episode five tight love you bye love you bye so i think it was a mistake what a way to go what a way to a vagoza low go so we're gonna we're kind of out of i don't know how this session was gonna go so we've got a little bit of uh this next part will be a little bit shorter is what i'm meaning to say so without any further preamble it's gripping rip really cliffhanger this thing yeah oh i don't know sometimes paul gets real crazy with these cliffhangers and it makes me sad for days yeah well still yourself it's gonna happen so alberic those listeners you're right you're right at the expense of my mental health i'll do it what a sacrifice what true actor subrains it's kind of hard to see because his paper is garbage but um you guys are all right here regular paper and then um frankie you see three of those jello things um down the hallway from the um the deck plate crash that you heard earlier we're so good at naming bad guys yeah fucking crab preachers and jello monsters jello monsters yeah so there's three jello monsters that are down you see a pudding monster around the corner it looks like bill Cosby and one instant cheesecake i'm a sub-vapadou sub-vapadou what they speak in is that you can't believe i can feel the tired oh they're all wearing sweaters yeah they wrap sweat all right i hate it so um how's it feel paul how's it feel paul hey paul yo coming so i lean over over quang and i like hey there's frankie and then i look in his i see his arm is like really broken yeah i take the paul i take the pols right rifle from him because i know he won't be able to fire it and uh smg you can fire one handed by the way oh i'll drop that i'm not saying you have to i'm just saying actually i didn't see that do the old swap swap um are you excited stand up with that paul's rifle and i'll kind of bring it up and i

us hey hi jean yeah oh shit and he points to the three shambling jello monsters light him up everyone rolls speed yeah okay 88 you're about to see some serious shit 48 25 okay so players go first um and then you choose how you want like if if one person specifically wants to act um but you all go and then i go so free action of speech yep uh jean you look like you know you're lay around this the lay of the land right and i just yeah how the fuck do we get to the port to the port to the shipyard well we'll have to get through the central spire and there's an umbilical that takes us right through to the dock yards we have to go through them or do we have to go the other way we're gonna have to go through them all right get behind me and i take a military position down on my one knee and it's just like really controlled fire pop pop i'm shooting at these guys as they're arranged nice so um uh pulse rifle if uh let's see i think it's another burst fire weapon and he has he has training i got mill tray okay so i'm set to with mill tray that sounds like a douchebag's name mill mill tray my boyfriend mill tray trays his first name is mails his last name i swap him because it's cute or it could be like a rapper what if we started doing mill instead of lil there you go mill tray is part of a tau tau tau yeah yeah yeah wow definitely wears like four pukachone necklace yeah and so many hemp bracelets that's like fucking he can barely lift his arm um so these pulse rifles have thermal scopes on them that should be thermal vision um it's what are these gopes look like on the therms uh i mean they they uh they uh during that firm their their bodies are warm like they're lower torsos or warm but the rest of them looks to be like they're these black cold spot yeah cold spots on their torsos okay um what's the dam on those things uh pulse rifles are 5d 10 sweet let's get ready for that let's get ready to bumble all right so that's a hit yeah so how would you like if i able to attack once return crits uh crits for weapons do different things yeah i saw that great no grit no grit so you just i mean you shoot and that's your turn shoot i hit him then okay 5d 10 demo to one of those guys who one of those gangies oh holy fuck 41 whoa so this thing gets shredded apart uh you just um the phosphorus rounds of the pulse rifle um leave these bright white tracer um firings from

not great maybe well gene you might need to rethink okay i stressed a re-roll and i roll a 00 with a 2 so 2 is a hit oh that's a 2 yeah so i didn't roll 103 no you did because you rolled 0000 which is

I want that exposing like the now very like rotted and disgusting smelling skull and meat underneath meat and a long thin hair like strand comes out of the Mouth of this thing. Oh, no and make a body save for me We're gonna Bob 43 and I my body is a 30 Yeah, you can take a stress to try to reroll the tens if you want Okay, I will do that real stressed out.
Oh, yeah That's 33 that's closer okay, okay, so I failed now it's a critical film. Oh fuck So this thing this like hair like strand comes out and whips into your nostril and you feel like have you I just had to take One of these influenza tests where they stick. Yeah, that's rough. It is the weirdest feeling yeah Brain yeah, what's what things trying to put their?
My orifice sorry Japanese influence. Yeah, I'm realizing now that this might be a theme and I don't mean it to be so I'm sorry for anyone Yeah, weird Freudian stuff going on maybe you just then but long you had the thing on you and it could smell that it hit one Had already attacked you. I wasn't explicitly trying to like constantly put weird tendril God. This is terrible It's right well, so um you uh Your vision like completely like the room disappears your friends go away.
You're suddenly transported to a the lot in our a field of Grass if you've ever seen that before But you've probably never Frankie or me no Frankie Right, but you probably read about it And you probably heard about it that like Earth used to have all of this grass grew everywhere and you're in this field of grass And there's all these tall trees the air smells so good. You can't even begin to describe it and there is a There's a man sitting at the foot of a tree and he's reading a book and there's a Ton of people that are sitting with him listening to him read a book What do you want to do just feel so just relaxing and nice? Do you go to listen to the book? Do you want to go?
There's like a stream and a creak that sounds appealing you hear the sound of water rushing Overstone. What is Frankie want to do? She goes to the people and she kind of like gently kind of pushes her way through these people gets right up to the front And looks at this man. What's he reading?
He's reading a book It's an old book and the the text on the front is in like this weird runic these weird runic glyphs and He is talking in a language that you don't recognize but you understand it You don't know like why the sounds make sense to you, but they just sound it all makes sense to you I'm he's telling you a story about how the great mother left us and he's getting to the sad middle chapter where They were lost without their mother for so long But as surrogate mother came and she she took them all under her wing and cared for them Cut back to reality and this all happens in the matter of seconds right you and gene managed to roll over the Shuttle car and the the engines running fine And you see the wheels aren't fucked up and gene hops into the driver's seat and reaches out of hand Help you in lock and you see behind or here behind you lock the sound God I'm sorry very sorry Albert the sound of a deck plate comes slamming down to the to the ground Gene screams get the fucking the car and You just shoot this one and then turn to change targets and see this things like mucus membrane has moved away and this thin red hair Has snaked its way into her nose and her head Frankie's head is just back and it's holding on to her And they're just like motionless together So I have a Vibra shetty kind of thing it's part of one of my packages the exploration thing She right through that little tendril you know, yeah, I make it I was gonna say you don't even it's not defending yourself It just and I cut that cord and all so that he's about to get to the really good part of the story where you learn about how great things are gonna be once the mother comes back or once we find a way to get to the mother and You instantly everything disappears and you find yourself looking like Not more than a few hands lengths away from this rotted things face as a little Red hair snakes around inside its mouth and throws out this clear mucus-y liquid on your face Okay Sure sure man, that's what happens so She able to act or yeah, yeah, you have freedom of action now to do whatever you want You recall all of a sudden like oh fuck we need to get all of your memories come rushing back And you're in tuition about what and where to do does you have a thing dangling from her nose? Yeah, I think there's like this long little gross thing that he cut in half It's hanging and you feel this pressure up in your sinuses by your eye almost but anyway, I've spoken enough to your thing Okay, so this thing's right in front of me Yeah, and but I'm like blasted with this memory of like we gotta get the fuck out of here and I think that I like come to right as I hear Jean like get the fucking the car and So I just want to like dive under this thing like between its legs are rounded or shut up She looks at 10 by the way, I don't know why go ahead and I want to get to the little car, okay, so actually The car is behind you well whatever so you can just like sprint out. Yeah, you just dip All over that you want to shoot the skin cone? Yeah, I guess I will but I will do a move away Okay, so I don't get any gel on me.
Okay. Yeah, you're clean Paul doesn't have any more gel to give there you go There you go. Yeah, go 20 something hold on 28 okay, so the for whatever reason without like the mucus II gel in front of its It's torso the the bullets look like they do even more damage and tear through this thing's inner skeleton and torso blowing it to bits And the the jello monster just collapses to the deck in a heap. All right, so immediate threat gone.
Yep Run make a sanity check for me Frankie 87 cool make a panic Roll for panic, please which is 2d 10 and you add them together subtract your resolve and address and give me that total the totes Minus your Is 10 plus 10 is my stress 20 20 You oh, this is a great way to end the episode you let out a blood curling scream disadvantage on all rolls for 2d 10 minutes So we just end on Frankie just screaming and I think that's a good spot to end the episode Ten minutes can you make a note of that on your character sheet for me? So I don't forget what's what is it I? Disadvantage on all rolls Could use some artisanal chocolates. Tell me about it.
Great. Good job everyone. We've arrived Stakes have been raised shit is the fan Also, you all level up. Oh, I don't even know what that means.
I don't think we've ever leveled up so leveling up and let's do this So you can we're gonna be level two. Okay, you can improve one stat by five Okay, so sorry here's what you get you pick one major improvement either improve one stat by five and another by three or Improve two saves by four each. So you choose one you either add you increase your stats or your saves Once you do that and you certainly don't have to do this now we can do this offline, but These are all the things that happen on level up you do one of those okay, you get to pick one minor improvement you either gain one resolve Remove one phobia or addiction or heal all stress and then three the last thing that happens is you gain skill points you all gain What oh gain two skill points, okay? Yeah, and like a trained skill is trained skill costs one one experts cost two masters cost three okay tight, okay?
We did it yeah, how to go feel good feel good. Yeah, yeah, really good. This one was yeah I liked a lot cool a lot more Moved and grooving yeah, it may move a lot quicker.
