Hello everybody and welcome to a brand new episode of a weird adventures in space the SHU podcasts very own sci-fi superhero radio drama I'll be your host. My name is J. I'll be your game master This here's a game and in this game. We're gonna be rolling dice and telling stories sometimes the dice determine what happens in the stories But for you the audience you can just kick back and enjoy how cool and smart we are I would like to have the cast introduce themselves to you.
This rowdy band of refugee aliens. Let's start with Sophie. Hi I'm your jesel. I'm a 5 foot 3 probably around 135 pounds I do like to go to the beach, but I don't like walking and Please bring me my favorite candy, which is Skittles.
That's not true. I made that up. I'm trying to be more likable I'm Logan. I play Akita the space dad who has daddy issues apparently.
That's a double daddy whopper. Yep I'm Rob. I'm playing sham. He's a cool tree guy.
Zach. I'm playing a corpse It was named Arlu and then it died Hi, I'm Bailey. I play Carrie who super here name is Lotus and she is a It's like a really good word for what her power is. It's like photo manipulation and healing, but right now She's just a very angry woman with a crystal nubbin and last but not least of course.
I'm Tony. I play Greg I'm 5'7 Way 175 my favorite candy is gummy worms and or sour patch kids and that's actually true Yeah, and I don't care if you like me. I'm cool if you do but if you don't so be it. I guess if you don't you're fucking lost nerds Last episode of weird adventures in space y'all met a little bit of a problem over on Mercury the regular corporations Very own Boson beta was opening up wafer president Goryo and Lotus in fact I'll just got opened up a little more than the other two and speaking of getting opened off boy Arlu got cracked open like a lobster by mirages site.
So what's next nothing good? This is episode 9 of weird adventures in space all things must come to an end The episode starts on Red Hills the colony on Mars Greg you just got the information that a casino has been built on one of Mars's moons and probably Not by regulation. You know I'm saying oh, yeah, you didn't approve any permits I don't remember any permit applications coming across my desk even for review You know where was where was even the plan review process for these guys right? I mean you set up a public transparent structure for people to do that and then this happens anyway It's screwy, but in the middle of looking up at that moon while your friend is may is heading up to go take a look at it You get an emergency alert in your earphones.
It's going beep beep beep beep beep beep beep really really loud Oh, well is it unnecessarily loud cuz I'm gonna turn it is it's unnecessarily loud in the way that like a tornado siren is Okay, it's an all-points bullet and sent out to all members of the Union of heroes and since you're their number one contractor You're linked into that right since there's an emergency and dr. Dude that has requested you to come back to her lab to talk because the Union isn't trouble. Oh, all right Well, then I yeah, then I answer it and I report to the lab there as soon as I can she tried to kind of talk you through it on The phone but she kept getting pulled away and half sentencing and just easier to do in person Right once you get up to the building you can drive in walk in all the standard stuff She's looking at like six different video screens four of them have been completely knocked out of commission two of them seem to be looking at a far-off planet She knows she should come in and she goes Greg hi hello. Hi so we're in a bit of an emergency right now the team took off to go to Mercury and There is a very dangerous prison there that Might be facing some structural integrity issues Oh, jeez.
All right, the problem Greg is that we got ten guys locked in there that want to destroy the Sun that want to Obliterate Earth that want to eradicate life as we know it We got everyone else coming there and they're getting there soon as possible But I've got a teleporter in my lab would you be willing to go in with me and try to fix things up? I mean we can get out ASAP. Oh, yeah, absolutely What what kind of supplies materials they can have on hand to to move forward any kind of repairs should we teleport that stuff to or How do we handle that? Well, I have just the thing I've been working on something for you because I noticed that you like to get your hands dirty Oh, yeah Oh, yeah Well, I made you a super suit and it's made out of state-of-the-art polymers that should hold up to that type of heat that you could Expect on Mercury that's um that that kill you if you step outside of it So this suit should have everything you need you got a welding gun on there you got a multiple multi tools You got digital interface and she kind of pulls out some of the pouches on the armor on the side of the suits And it's filled with like construction equipment and levels and blueprint makers and stuff like that Like she essentially made you a suit that would be the iron man of construction nice I started getting to that thing as soon as possible checking out all the the widgets and the gadgets and everything Seeing how many PSI the compressor comes up to how many amps the welder puts out.
Oh, yeah, I'm checking it all out So it seems like she while she's walking you through keeps winking when she talks about how regulated the power is And how regulated the PSI is and kind of says to you I don't really tweak this thing Greg so I took all the limits off of it You're welcome to do whatever you like with this bad boy. All right I mean I trust that you know what to do But I had to make a suit that could stand up to like deep space So I mean I don't think you're very fragile in that thing nice So while you're getting suited and I'd say about half up to your torso Do that they'll say I do need to show you what we're dealing with all right and one of the blank screens flips on and you can see a Picture of like probably a 19 year old woman wearing a slightly white theater mask and She's like running out of a bank or something the next image you can see a cat like a cat person Maybe about six seven feet in the trench coat fighting during the God war something that you aren't really aware of but I mean it happened Then you can see finally a photo that was taken when Mirage was admitted into prison of this same 19 year old woman She's very plain boring person, but her head has been shaved and she's completely dead behind the eyes do that sis you this is Miranda cannon Or Mirage or the Minotaur or the desiccator Or the big boss It's a lot of AKA's well. Yeah, this is a criminal who has changed identities as they move throughout the multiverse They kind of think of a griffer, right? Mm-hmm with enormous psychic powers She can crack open your brain.
She can tell what you're thinking. She can make you see things that aren't there The Union's intel seems to be that whatever's in that that girl's body right now is some sort of alien parasite some sort of psychic parasite that jumped from that cat body to that human body that human body is indestructible and When ever reason they're causing havoc in that prison right now that suit should shield you from psychic attacks But that means that you gotta keep it intact and if you have an emergency issue Just let me know we can pull you out ASAP. So are you willing to go in? Yeah, let's go Okay, she says one more thing and she walks over to a locker and opens up a locker and says I don't have a fancy suit for myself That'll help me survive that so I'm gonna introduce you to dr.
2 dad. This is my robot duplicate She'll be going with you to try to keep you comfortable, but keeping my name isn't really worked out yet All right, and then the robot looks up at you and goes I'm hungry What's it eat don't feed it anything just don't okay, so she goes over and works on the teleporter And she goes are you ready to go in Greg? Yeah, I'm ready when you walk through the teleporter You walk into a lab that's been torn limb from limb. It's pitch black You can only see the outline of some tables and stuff Well, I feel like we'll probably ought to get some power restored for one thing It's so dark in here So I start feeling my way out towards what might be the exit to this uh to this room You can hear the suit light up like on your heads up display in your helmet and it says low visibility Would you like me to turn on the lights?
Oh, yeah, I would yeah if there's uh, yeah spotlights or headlights or something now Let's get that going you've got the equivalent of one of those headband lamps on the top of it Okay, and then if you need additional you found controls for like stuff enhanced. Oh nice I'm hoping it has like like like lights at the wrists that like shine right down into your work area as you're working on it Yep, oh, that's awesome And I'd like to think it it has some sort of like inner cooling and breathing device Oh, yeah for sure so that way no matter what the temperature is in the environment. I'm comfy cozy You're nice 71 with a breeze nice So the lab itself looks like it has been torn us under during a fight Uh, there are scars everywhere the tables and should have flipped over most of the glass is broken Uh, you do see one person in the far corner of the room Okay, and they're laying on the ground with an enormous gash from their shin line down to their pelvis Oh, no, I had over there right away Once you get over there, you can tell that it is the super villain that you went to the future with elbedo Oh, but he's not in his costume. He's been ripped out of it He's just laying on the ground kind of in tatters path nude wearing only like a pair of boxers or whatever He's a eastern Asian guy in his 40s looks like he's had a relatively hard life You can see that on his face and he is barely breathing right is was he was he a prisoner here?
No, he actually volunteered to go in with the other union members to help them out. I see did I know that? No, but dr. Tudad does look at that and go.
Oh, no, that's not good. Yeah. No, I immediately uh Get the first age supplies out of this uh the suit here and I started ministering first aid So closing up the gash course a treat for shock Guys treat for shock and try to you know Maintain airways. Do I have oxygen on this thing?
Yes All right, well, whatever I need to do it to get to get to get oxygen, you know To him with that there's a mask on this thing or spare whatever I do that for sure Dudad's robot that went with you sees you doing first aid and says I'm actually a medical tool Can I can help you patch him up? Oh, all right? So yeah, fix this guy up while you two are working together You can see a little bit of light left in his eyes. Mm-hmm, and he looks up at you and he goes, Greg What happened?
His breathing is so labored he can he can barely get the words out There's some kind of some kind of uh escapes hat in here. They're destroying this place to try to get out He opens his mouth and it kind of gurgles a little bit and he says minotaur And then passes out she stays there to fix him up and she says I think I've mostly got him good to go Do you want to go scope the hallway and make sure we're clear to try to transport him back? Oh for sure. Yeah, I do that.
I'll go try to clear a path through a safer place for this guy as long as she's got him stable, you know He doesn't relatively stable. I mean he's gonna require pretty serious surgery But as long as you can be thrown through the teleporter that shouldn't be an issue Okay, as you get out of the hall you notice that you're in it's sort of a circular hall So there's a left and a right but not really in front of you. Mm-hmm And you see to your right. It's pretty dark You know, you can't really see around the edge But to the left after I'd say about 100 200 feet there is some power restored to that sector of the prison All right.
Well, yeah, that had left then I'm gonna say while you're heading left and things get a little more visible You're walking from the darkness to the light and your suit's gonna compensate for that But far off at the end of this hall around the corner you see a pink figure six foot Got a cat's face almost like a lion-like face. It's the exact one that you saw in dude-ense photos And they're slowly walking towards you. Yeah, I keep going as you walk forward this cat figure walks through your suit Like it was a ghost or something. All right, I tried to stop.
Hey, hey, stop When you say that the figure turns around and says I am a mirage of the nebulous knights I am here to help you and then continues walking as if you weren't even there All right, I followed if you follow her. She's gonna walk down that column into the darkness Yeah, I'll go you can tell that this this is the part of the prison that shut down the whole thing's not bad yet But you're you're in more of like a technical area the prison stuff where like the generators and shit would be held And you can see mirage kind of like walking in and out of the various rooms and hallways And every time she walks away someone else walks into the hallway and her stead a human woman An enormous ape like monster a dog like person like a like a cheetah's species And all of them are pink and all of them are ghosts and they walk through the halls door to door to door If you try to talk to them, they don't pay attention It seems like they're walking in and out of rooms that don't exist. Well, I try to ask uh, ask her again What what she doing? How is this helping?
He said you're here to help. What what's what is this? All of the figures that you see him come together and They all stand in front of you in the hall. There's about 30 of them They stand in rows that kind of happens instantly they all snap in from the walls and they say we're her errant thoughts There's something inside of her that's deeply wrong You can't fix it just run All right, so it's it's obviously clear that she's not actually helping Okay, she's just she's warning you and she thinks that that's helping but I see Well, if this is the area that's shut down and stuff's broke then I guess I'll just split off from this group of errant thoughts and Try to start fixing stuff.
I don't know what else to do at this point That's what i'm here for You march on down that dark and corridor and those spirits follow you along Okay, you've been pulled out of your jail cell by this enormous purple muscle man named prince kilix who told you that you have no reason to Trust your father. Oh, no shit And then demanded that you fight him and so we ended with you two squaring off against each other not having thrown a single punch yet All right, look we need to make this quick. She's going down on mercury and I should probably be there Fingers fair Five minutes. The kita is going to reach up grab the shoulder of his jacket rip off both of his shirt and jacket He looks at you and goes a noble decision and strips himself of his chitness armor underneath you see he's basically like He basically looks like an enormous pro wrestler, but he has scars and bullet holes and shut all of his chest And he goes, I'll allow you to make the first move.
I want to see how hard you hit Kita's gonna take in a text dance and then he's going to he's gonna turn roundhouse kick he looks in the face That's the wash on the dice. That's a plus five. He rolled a nine What he does is grabs your ankle by the tendon and then tries to pull it out the tendon that is out I caught you lacking prince goryo So for your turn you are stuck in a grapple the kita is going to probably scream if he's getting his tendon pulled out And then he's going to he's gonna try and ram his claws into kilks eyes That's a five You actually like suck him dead in one of the eyes to the point where it's like swelling up in closing And he he laughs and says like father like son I don't know what you mean, but okay He then leans back and rams you in the face with his knuckles. He got a critical success.
Oh That's a plus five. So he jacks you in the face He hits you basically between the nose and the chin. You feel like four teeth fall out of your head Ooh, and then he shoots you across the room like a bottle rocket where you splat against the concrete wall And kilks walks towards you as you're in a rumple and says this is the legendary street fighter The stone-handed killer whose name spans galaxies Uh shit Okay, that sucked I really didn't want to be here Look, let's just get this over with is there a chair in the room. There's a chair there's like a chair and a basket He is going to grab the chair and try and smack him in the back of the head with it That's a lot better.
That's a plus six You hit him and you hear him make a huge grunting noise and then slump to the ground face first He's not not talking to you. You're him breathing, but he's screaming your name Like, you know, he's holding that last a for a long time He stands up and he looks at you dead in the eye and goes That punch should have caved in your skull I can tell your bones and flesh are just as soft and vulnerable as your father's and yet you come back to me with this fire Is that what you can do? Probably do a little more but kind of want to get the hell out of here He puts his hand out to you. This is a sign of respect where you are from, right?
Yeah, I guess so he shakes your hand. He'll shake it So the rumors are true. You are yama akeeta the runaway mutt I've spent so many sleepless cycles in the darkest edges of the milky way on your father's behalf Looking for the smallest piece of evidence that his son is still alive His excellency has been looking for you for years Yeah, one of two that he's been looking for The rest of your family or at least your brother and sister have been kept safe by the cabal I haven't been in contact with my little sister in ten years. My brother How long's he known about this?
We first contacted your brother Majima a few months ago And he wanted nothing to do with the cabal business Goryo insisted on secretly providing him money through a front organization your father's true wish is to see his children follow their bliss Sounds about right. All right. Yeah, I haven't heard from him in the years. So that's fine How does he know about his niece?
Thank you father has kept many secrets from you fellow prince Yeah, I'm starting to get that I consider the president to be a noble man and a constructive leader He has utilized the resources of the cabal towards finding his family finding you specifically the lost boy The more aggressive members of our fellowship have become hostile towards your father when I warned you not to trust your father It wasn't because he was trying to oppose you. I warned you because he is prioritizing his family the one he sees in his head over everything else He can't see the genuine unrest sweeping through Venus. He can't see ryegor's real threat He can't even see the snakes in his own den looking to steal the throne. Yeah, I Don't really trust anybody anymore or fear that I do Then we are at least brothers and arms.
I had the cabal call off the bounty I needed to make sure I found the real deal and since you seem to be yama a keta Then perhaps your father can pull himself together and lead us through this war I pray to the heavy-handed gods for that to be so but I won't have planet x in my people enslaved by the ryegor corporation because of your father's lesser ambitions I get it. I was impressed by your focus in combat young prince. You've earned my respect and as their ruler the respect of all denizens of planet x Yeah Hey quick question You know where my sister would be I know not as he kept track of her I too have been kept in the dark by your father's machinations. I have witnessed your sister once We secured her off planet some bounty hunter picked her up traveling the astral skyway She wanted nothing to do with any of us and despite your father's genuine desire to reconnect the entire experience left her furious She struck your father down the front of the cabal with her bare hands How long ago was this because last I saw she was but waist high the scouter doesn't lie power doesn't come from size comes from will a burning spirit And the young lady packs a punch.
That's good. Just like her mom based on the searing hatred I witnessed that day. I have no desire to fight her after all when one will lose an eye would I Yeah, sorry about that. Not the first time and it won't be the last All right He watched you out to your ship and you can see once you get back to the carcass all of the orcs who were supposed to stay on the ship and behave instantly bought leather jackets And they're like patrolling the marketplace area of Venus where your ship went down at just trying to like keep people safe preventing thefts roughing people up Well, they're such good boys.
And when they see you come back here. Hey boss. What's up? Uh, we need to head to Mercury as soon as possible and then they go okay.
Yeah, we can get you to Mercury By the way, we play this jacket It's a leather jacket with like a space squid embroidered on the back Keetah will take it and throw it over her shoulder and say all right Let's roll out as you walk away. Keelik's waves to you and says Keeta if the union of heroes needs me or the help of planet X Here is my contact band signal The zayo see may live in the edge of the shattered disk We will fight by your side as comrades against the rygore corporation Keel wave and say it's been an honor keel bobback and then get out mich it Are you like heading asap to mercury? Yeah, he might try to do a little bit of first aid on himself if he can if his ankle still fucked up Your ankles fucked up your teeth are falling out of your face. You're totally shirtless.
Well, no you could have a jack Good in a better world In another part of the prison one with a lot more power And I say a lot more power because you can visibly see r-lose corpse on the ground Great I did trust an act a little bit Last episode mirage buried her scythe harvest into r-lose neck and pull it down through her hips like a fish Her ribs are sticking into the air. I'm not sure what color am in ribs would be the blue name That's the blood. Let's say pink ribs. We're at the end of the time while you're laying there in your last thoughts.
Arlo. Oh last thoughts You see the the cape around your neck on clasp itself and start wrapping itself around you almost like a caterpillar would and you can hear her say I'm not going to let you die Arlo, but you have to stay strong Look around you get an answer turn your head about two inches to the left and then you die dead That last moment is stuck in your memory. You're reliving over and over again of the darkness going up But the whole time you can hear Wally say it's okay to be safe. It's okay And your spirit raises out of your body And it floats above the ground you can see your your little body there.
It looks like you're in a um an extremely disgusting sleeping bag Cool But she seems to have wrapped herself around you entirely she's trying to protect the body even if she can protect spirit Hmm You know from your amin and training that amin's are able to after project after death for about an hour Oh And if they are not captured or returned to some sort of physical form by them they disappear into the ether Can I do anything? What do you try to do? Mmm. Walk around try figure out where the asshole went right now.
You're in a side room You're in one of the cells do you step into the water hall? Yeah, okay You walk out of the hallway and you can see a bunch of alarms going off Prison break prison break prison break over and over again. I'm a spooky ghost. Can I make those shut up?
Uh, no, damn it And there's also what appears to be a path of destruction in the hall broken cell doors Uh bars that have been smashed into steel walls and floors that have huge dents in them You can hear the people in the cells screaming your name Not not physically they're not moving their mouths, but their souls are longing for you It's creepy The afterlife is a creepy place. What kind of people around around in those cells? Only about three of them you'd recognize as people the other thing to be sort of weird abstract forms One of them is a uh, train a source sounds like a train a source looks like a train a source But it's made out of a space energy. So he's not really talking There is a Martian you know green seven foot four eyes, but they don't seem to be saying anything Their brain and their spirit are completely silent One spirit is extremely penitent and sad.
It is not doing nothing but wailing and moaning One more is filled with a furious rage and anger that you've never heard before. There's screaming to anyone that's close. Hmm I'll go to the Martian dude Don't want it's empty. Yeah, you go to the door of his cell and his name is he death I don't know if I can go into his head Is there anything in his head at all seems like he is constantly meditating to keep a clear head But anytime you're trying to probe into his mind, it's clearly saying there's nothing here I'm I thought to blank.
I'm sure that guy then All right, where's you now? I want to go hang out with the angry one. All right. So you look into the cell the angry one The name of his cell is king kelix Yeah, and he is a incredibly ripped muscular nine foot tall purple muscle man Nice and he's like basically wearing just like prison jumpsuit And it looks like both of his eyes have been gouged out And he is just sitting there punching the wall It fizzed like in his physical form punching the steel and indestructible wall over and over again in a rage His knuckles are bloodied and blistered.
He's just angry Trying to figure out. No, do I want to try it? Uh, I want to figure out if I can still do magic I don't know I don't see if I can somewhat calm him down to see if he is at all controllable Uh, yeah, I guess make an empathy roll and then a will roll Five five okay, and then give me that will roll five you successfully empathize with him He's been imprisoned for 30,000 years by his son who bested him in a battle and took his empire from him He knows a rage that is unending because he has completely lost any sense of time space or reason from being locked out for so long He only wants to kill every living thing in his vicinity I feel like that's wasted time I might be angry but these people need to fucking get a grab They put the worst of the worst here. There is a name that catches your eye on your way out You see the name white star on the door of a jail cell You know white star because of the white star battalion a force of semi autonomous bounty hunters in your space sector That uh name themselves after their fallen hero I'm actually gonna turn around and go there and see that person.
That's a name that would catch her I know matter where you were in the universe kind of like saying the pink or tins or something So she's the one that's incredibly sad. Mm-hmm when you try to empathize to her she's overcome with despair and grief Oh, I know this one How much I'm gonna talk to this one. What do you say? Oh, yo, what the fuck?
What are you saying? I have derelict in my duty. Do you want to underelick it? I can't undo what I've done Mm-hmm.
I could argue that you could The things I have done in the union of superheroes name are an indelible stain on an otherwise noble institution Fuck institutions. They suck. You're here from the union, aren't you? Uh I just kind of got picked up by them Same here.
I was marooned on earth, but I found a way to build a life for myself. I had a wife had a child and No, I can't go back Mm-hmm. You can't though. Who are you?
I'm not good negotiated. That's what I'm not. Yeah, but you sure are tenacious What is the issue? I've been here for been here for years.
This is my penetances. I must pay for what I've done Oh, I have an idea of how you can pay. What do you mean? Let's go beat the shit out of that cat and don't we know if we can hang out and you know get out of here I've been an imposed silence.
I don't know what you mean. There's a big guy like she got me in half or whatever killed me I want to go kick her what is she doing on this prison being a dick You want to go beat something up and then like be buddies I deeply do not want to inflict more violence on the world But it sounds to me as if there's something in danger. Yeah, well, I guess I'm isn't danger. Do you want help?
I don't know who that is. Is this prison in danger? Yeah, it's in danger. Oh, yeah, it'll break open If we don't get rid of the cat lady.
What do you mean? It'll break open? Uh, she's gonna break it and then everything will get sucked out in this space Spaces are vacuum if you break it everybody's gonna get sucked out of it, right? That's how that works Yes, and we have kalix in prison here and we have part of x in prison here The union isn't here to stop her.
Well, here's the thing the union is very slow They take forever to get here. I'm only here because I had the teleporter So I can't say that you've convinced me but I couldn't turn my back on such an obvious threat to other people Will you let me free? Yeah, fuck it If you use magic you might be able to interact with the physical world All right, I'm gonna do that. Okay, make a war roll That's pretty good.
That's a five Make another I can't wait for this to be the worst decision i've ever made. Uh three good. Will minus four Oh, that's four. That's not cool Well, this is zero Good enough But you substantiate a part of your soul long enough to interact with the physical world It allows you to turn it around or handle and you are able to let white star out of their cell White star stands up.
They are sort of like a protoplasmic group person They don't really have physical features. It's kind of like an ooze taken human form They look up at you and say where's your body spirit? Who needs to be beaten up? She used to be in a cat buddy.
No, she's an human body. She's the one fighting the treatment probably She says I understand her body shape chefs and forms an elaborate superhero costume It looks somewhat like I don't know a pair of fatigues. It's clearly she's dressed in somewhat militant gear But it's red and gold and has sort of an air of reality to it She also transforms a part of her forearm into an enormous shield that goes from the top of her head to about her knees That sounds like Captain USSR. And she says to you I have taken my last life But I will not allow this at university without existence.
Oh, oh no don't kill her I'm gonna kill her you just beat her. No one will be killing anyone today Uh fine, but you need me spirit. Let's go. All right.
All right, you head down the halls I can't wait for that to be a horrible horrible Wayfarer carry and a key to father president goryo of the cosmic cabal you have been facing down mirage and pouzan when When mirage bailed on boson and called him a fool So you've got this person in froyo kerry's missing a forearm for mirage And boson is foaming at the mouth of ready to get wafer after mirage disappears The president looks at boson and says you've been caught nowhere to run He dashes forward with his beam saber and he slashes boson across the chest Leaving an enormous burn mark. He's jetting around on this jet packet extremely high speed He's like a little a hummingbird with a knife There's like a split second where like her arm is still like floating away And then you see that it looks like black light comes out and like snatches it back But it shatters and it's just kind of floating there Without my arm kind of like a whip and wrap it around boson's neck And try to pull it and sever it because that is just pure broken glass on energy right now So basically you reconstitute your glass arm You're saying yeah, essentially It's instead of having the actual like nubbin and trying to like reattach it. I just shattered it and the sheer force of my spite and rage is holding it in place So it's like you put a bunch of broken glass in a catapult. Yes Okay, well, I know how to handle that go ahead and make the uh two-shoot rolls Can I use whale since i'm actually using my like light powers to jettison it for sure thank you my better skill Seven a seven you were the four What happens is what used to be your crystal arm has become embedded in his chest Basically the same place that goryo tux swipe out You've never seen a rygor sivanion actually get fucked up before You've never seen what happens to wafer when he really gets hurt I mean if i've only ever seen that right now And you're seeing it now to boson He's bleeding out of his chest weird energy is leaking out of his chest and he's doing what he can to reconstitute every little hole But even with weird energy he's like pulling the shards out one by one and trying to use his own skin And i'm gonna keep those little fuckers there too I'm just gonna look at him.
I'm gonna say boson. You're so busy looking for a fool. You forgot to look at him You're he says back to you. I hate you alpha.
I know and then i'm gonna hit him with some weird energy Um, I can eat That's so that was a critical success That's four blanks on his dice, which means that he got a four wafer you blast him with weird energy, right? It's essentially like doing a huduchen Like you just kind of bean can in him into space But you notice one interesting thing was happening All of the crystals that are left in his body are now getting charged with weird energy And it looks like they're prime to explode. Yes, please It's okay. Fuck up.
So look like they're going to explode at us. No on him They're embedded pretty deep in but you know when you see a rock shaking and you're like oh, that's not good That's what's going on. Bozon looks around and he says he can't believe this betrayal and he lunges for president goryo And he succeeds he grabs goryo by the helmet and rips the helmet off and then asks him if he can still breathe in space It's back to goryo. He attempts to jetpack out of bosons clutches But boson just clocks him in the neck and pulls him back down into shape and that was his turn Are the crystals still like embedded in him?
I want to will them further up into his respiratory system Well, there's a problem with that his species doesn't have one Rude that explains the nose I'm assuming you're just trying to push it into him a little bit more Yeah, I wanted to make the joke because he asked if he could breathe in you know without oxygen And I want to be like can you oh gotcha gotcha gotcha The promise that he can so that might not be so Can I yoyink them up into his brain instead? Oh for sure He's gonna be taking the long road or they go in the shortcut right through the body I mean if they're already in his chest, it would just be easier to go straight up Yeah, I'm imagining those diagrams from school where they show you how the respiratory system works There's little arrows going from your lungs to your brain All right, that'll work if you want to shape those up into his head. Yes, I do I'm gonna fly in and try to yank Oreo away from him. If I still haven't moved after that I'd like to try to make an atmosphere around him.
Oh, yeah Okay, that's a fight you managed to make a atmospheric field around president goryo It allows him to breathe, but it doesn't separate boson from goryo's body You know, they're still clutched together Boson does try to dispel it with his own weird energy But when he raises his hand to try to affect it, he can't make any come out cool for bosons turn his head explodes Yay Not like into pieces. It's an explosion located on the top of his head It leaves an incredible divot And what you must assume is a hard rock-like material And he gets one of his antenna on the top of his head clean blown off He falls into deep space in a state of shock president goryo is rapidly gasping for air in does nothing Can I pull all my crystals back to me out of his body? No, they're exploded. Okay, there goes my crystals Now I have to break or my arms do cool stuff again Goryo is secure, right?
Like he's not dying anymore. He's just like couch his breath Yeah, he's just like sucking air basically All right, I want to put a bubble around boson so that he can't get away And we can just drag him with us What what's that bubble made out of my energy? Light energy? Yeah, it's essentially light energy.
Do I make me a little? Can't do So that is Six You managed to make a containment field around him How's he doing now? Not great. Okay Can I see his helmet?
Yeah, the helmet's out there floating in space Gonna go get that back and get it to him Goryo puts the helmet back on and says thank you, wafer Fucker For our hits turn, boson looks up at you wafer and goes I don't get shit about your little flunkies You're gonna pay for this and then teleport away Hey, what is in the bubble? Yeah, Rude Wanted to shake him like a snow globe What you do find inside of your globe though, Goryo, is one remaining crystal charged with weird energy I'm just gonna wedge it into the stump Eat me I like it a little set of sticks When you put the crystal back into your lump or whatever Your stump whatever you want to call it Your consciousness expands Your brain opens up You're starting to see connections between things on a cosmic level How parallel universes work, how physics work, astrophysics How? It's really overwhelming It's really hard to pay attention I don't like this Is this what you always feel like? Oh yeah How stop?
Um I don't know, I spent like a year screaming Um then I got quieter This is this hurts a little Yeah, I don't like this I know I get therapist I'm down to talk to her therapist Okay, I'll hook you up She's really nice but she would bring me into us One of our teammates is a dog The other one is a tree At this point, nothing faces me Wafer, that's when you get a buzz in your communicator ear That says, this is sham We've got the personal locked up Just make sure Pozent's taken care of We'll get to go That's a sound pretty I'm just gonna hire a British person to do it for me And then you're all gonna look like real fools Sham, you were out in the hall trying to get to our loop Before something bad happened and Mirage slash Miranda stopped you You played the chase game a little bit Until you were down in one of the hallways And Miranda says to you I haven't finished business with you No one can know where I came from So that's that line, sorry me Then you're gonna have to stop me here She pulls the scythe out from Thinaire And says it's my pleasure We've already taken one life today Two will be nothing And then throws the scythe at you like a boomerang Right, I'd like to use my body morph skill to the top of Try and put a black wall in front of me That's a plus four It swipes past you and gets stuck into a wall She's in her human body right now But you can see As she's taking swings and walking Little pink selves just kind of walk away from her and down into the hall Are there any other plants in the room or is it just a little metchee metal All she metal I am going to try and tackle her to the ground Stop her moving Ooh Uh that is a plus four again So you beat her by one Which means you did manage to tackle her to the ground But she is fighting back And on her turn She's going to try to probe your mind So go ahead and make me three will rolls Okay Uh plus three Ooh minus one And a plus three So for a brief I would say three or four seconds Be feel a deep searing pain Inside of your brain And during those three to four seconds You can hear her laughing in your head As your body which is made out of these carefully constructed roots And branches and dream interior Completely unraveled under the ground like spaghetti And she says I'm in control of your body Sean You don't understand how class you are I'm going to extend my arm out and use that To pin her down and then I'm going to break it off So she's held there Ooh alright I like it So I'm going to need a physique roll And then a fight roll Yeah that's a plus five on the physique And a plus three on the fight So you do manage to pin her down For her turn An enormous pink minotaur comes walking through one of the sheet walls Like an apparition and swings its axe at you Can I use will to try and just stand my ground against it? Yes you can That's a plus three It's ended up with a plus two So you would take a slice across the chest It's not mental damage, it's physical damage These are psychic constructs Okay When you feel that slash across your chest You can hear Mirage even though she's pinned down Continue laughing Okay I'm going to try and lead the minotaur away Yeah I'm not trying to get away from it As in it loses me Just stay out of range To see if I can find a finite range of it I would say in that case make me a perception roll Yes sorry that's a group's turn Notice That is a zero then What I would say is you do manage to stay out of the way of swipes But it seems like this thing is moving fast and unpredictably You don't totally feel safe I think I'm just going to work on trying to dodge and keep getting further back So if it's just roll something to give myself an advantage on further and future attacks Yeah why don't you do that? That is a plus two She critically failed So I will give you two plus two advantages that you can use at any time Of she doesn't know you as well as she thinks she does But you're going to have to roll those pretty soon Because she's making another three-wheel attacks at you for her turn Okay I'll take one off there for a plus two Another plus two And I'll take off the other one there for plus three So this will be another case where she gets a hold of you for a few seconds And then you manage to fight out at the end Yeah But for those five or six seconds What she does is she grabs your arm She puts it up to your communicator And she says Wayfarer We've got everything settled in the prison Don't worry about me Just take care of Pozon Greg you've been wandering around this dark encore And you can tell that this place was built Basically on maximum security Right But whatever's happened here that caused power outage You can hear telltale signs of creeks and strains Like the architecture might be struggling All right As you walk down the corridor It's still dark but your lights can pop back on The light reveals at least one room called the generator room Well I mean I had in that room see you know See what's broke It looks like they were been destroyed Looks like I maybe hacked at with a bladed weapon Are they still connected to what they typically are connected to? Yes they are Well then I'm gonna check Let's look you know If there's more than one I'm just gonna try to try to Scavenge each one For enough parts To make or you know To make one useful one And then just continue that until there's as many running as I can If there's enough parts laying around Try to get something running You are going to find enough To put maybe one of these generators back together All right And while you're scavenging for parts and working on that You see one of those pink figures into the doorframe One of them Aaron thoughts What do they want?
It's an enormous hulking Minotaur with an axe Oh they're gonna axe me They're looking at it You're looking very axeable About a 9 foot tall Minotaur beast But you know that these things are spirits to some extent Ghosts or something Don't feel quite real Well then I guess I'm gonna I don't know what to do I guess I'll take the welder end on my thing And I'm just gonna crank it all the way up And then just kind of Find a ground and then just shoot a big arc To try to make some kind of interference So this thing don't come near me I guess I just plant my foot on the ground on the metal part So I'm gonna ground it And I look up in the air for some kind of metal beam Or something I hold that I hold that torch and you know For enough waste I get a big arc going Just I'm just hoping for a big shower of sparks or something So you do get that big shower of sparks Unfortunately I really critical failure for So what happens is you blast a hole in the ceiling Okay, yeah that'll happen It's too much heat Ahead it's trying too high For everyone else who's in the prison That sector of the prison goes into full lockdown Because there's been a vacuum bridge And Greg you get pulled into the atmosphere of Mercury A rock planet very very close to the sun The temperature gauges on your suit Say something like I don't know 900 degrees Although I could be wrong I think it might be hotter Oh my The nice thing about being outside though Is that you can see there is an exterior power grid To this facility Okay And there is a real serious potential Of that being damaged By this Minotaur thing that seems to be chasing him You and this thing are now on the ground Like the earth part of Mercury Just some dirt and some dust and shit Okay Maybe 15-20 feet outside of the prison And it looks at you in snorts and starts stamping its feet Alright well I guess I'm gonna try to escape I'm gonna try to run or get myself to that external power grid Then you're saying Okay Guess I'm running if I can make this thing go faster I make it go faster I jet the air nozzles backwards or whatever You know Get me some extra boost Yeah that works So what happens is you get a you hit your nozzles And you see the something on the suit Say grasshopper mode activated And you take this enormous flying leap through the air That's jet propelled Nice Seems like your suit has pneumatics built into it You land near the grid And it appears that the grid is still fully operational There's nothing in danger here Okay But the Minotaur is very confused as to where you are And is just kind of looking That's what didn't see where I went Okay Why just stand my ground for a minute and see what it does Try not make a commotion so don't nose me again Alright I'm gonna make a stealth roll for you Color is the suit is it red Greg's is white Like a like a nassesser No it needs to be road cone orange Actually that's not a bad idea I don't hate that either Greg actually did a really well in his stealth roll The Minotaur loses sight of you and walks away Okay And it seems to be disappearing back into the prison Which is good because that thing's supposed to be in prison Right? Yes Okay So it's leaving you alone you're outside here You can see that this building is going through some rough times Oh yeah Alright well I guess what I'm gonna do immediately then Is if this power grid thing seems like it's functional And that thing no longer cares much about me I'm gonna slowly walk back towards that big hole I blasted in There was that the hole Is that the hole in the Minotaur walk back in with? Yeah but you waited long enough so that he's not there anymore Right right Well I guess I'm gonna find there's some kind of Scraps or something around a scavenge I'm gonna try to get a big piece of metal or something Weld it up over that hole that I made That's pretty easy to do Your suit actually has like a metal polymer spray That you can use for stuff like that Okay Yeah I'm gonna patch up that hole Probably walk back in and patch it from the inside So I'm not stuck out here You managed to get it back up and running And you hear dude adding your communicator Greg what's the situation on the building? It's pretty rough It's all banged up It's holes things and things are down And yeah it's rough Structural damage Is it savable?
Don't look like it right now I mean if it's savable at all Pack a lunch It's a project Well then I need to do one more thing before you're done What's that? I need you to put the deadlocks on the cells So that they can't get out even if power fails Alright You have to engage them manually But it shouldn't be too hard to do And she gives you a place to go Alright operation deadlock Commencing I'm heading in Our lu and white star You're running down the corridor It tops me to try to catch up to show I'm floating thank you Yeah you're just guy running You finally get down the corridor And you see the scene Mirage has been pinned down But it looks like an enormous tree And she's laughing While sham is being attacked Over and over again by a giant pink Minotaur I'm gonna fly ya chomp And I'm gonna try and get into his head You and white star rush forward White star slams into the Minotaur with their shield And says get back I can handle this one And you can see them going back and forth The shield clanging the axe This is essentially like a human sized woman Fist fighting a Minotaur And getting the better of it Sweet By using martial arts Techniques Military martial arts techniques Sean What's into your mind palace? You've been you know just Trained it fight for your life against this Minotaur here And Our lu jumped into your brain Which means that now in your mind palace There are two people Fortunately it's Chomp's favorite person Yeah I resist Go ahead make me a little roll Uh that's a plus four That's a plus six Well I can do the math there So a ghost version of Our lu is floating I wouldn't say they're in your brain I would say it's kind of like you're sharing the same megazord Yeah As soon as this happens Sean When you're overwhelmed with the feeling of Oh fuck no please don't You can hear Mirage say What happened? I can't feel you anymore Oh do you think you can keep out?
Yes I want to spend three people What are you spending three Fates on? I'm spending three Fates on Magic Armor That I had this whole fucking time I've never used If I spend three fake points I can hold Like a plus three shield on all the fifth Fates rolls until I fail to roll at least a plus Three on will at the start of the turn Early jumping into your brain To the equivalent of the fusion dance for you Your body is becoming massive Like twice the size Because intermingled with all of your twigs And your leaves and stuff Is this glowing blue time armor? You can erase all wounds from your body Okay And I will give you the opportunity To take a turn and get at Mirage Who is now pin-thunder tree I'm going to try and knock out Mirage What's she gonna do? I'm gonna take a kick if she's pinned down It's just a big football kick Yeah After everything I put up with From her, she deserves it Yeah I agree I agree That's a plus five to fight And she can't fight So she just took a nine to the head And you can actually hear this human skull crack Mirage looks at you And says it doesn't matter This body's invulnerable You can do whatever you want Sean You're gonna lose no matter what It's not the body I'm trying to stop It's the mind I want to see if I can call her Staff to Sean Plus seven Goddamn it's a good roll for that You call your staff right?
And you can hear the attunement It is on the way Alright so Sean it's back to you Yeah I mean the only way I know to Knock her out is Revident so You kick her right in the head And you can tell now that her eyes are not working so good Even though this isn't invulnerable physical body It does take damage And that does affect your sensory perception Mirage pulls the scythe in from the wall And you can see it Starting to cut through the big log you have on top of her And while she's doing that She makes a will roll and you Sean Go ahead and make me defensible With a bus three Um that is a plus five She rolled a critical failure So not only did she attempt to get in But Arlu's armor is so strong That it created psychic feedback And now she's like twitching on the grounded in pain Greg that's when you walk into the sea You've been running to get all the tourists deadlocked You finally got to the section of the prison with all the cells And you walk into a 19 year old girl being pinned under a redwood tree There's a floating scythe cutting through it You see that Minotaur that's been following you as well Your friend Sean is filled with glowing crystal energy And he seems to be fist fighting this woman who's pinned to the ground So I feel like I don't want that I don't want her to get that sight No probably not Uh it's flying through the air Yeah it's basically like in Fantasia or something It's kind of just floating an air going to its job itself Well on a suit I fire up the electromagnet Pshhh And I aim it at that sight Try to suck that sight out of its current flying path It magnets right to your hand Nice So Greg you now have a sight in your hand And that is not all you can do with your turn You do have the Minotaur in between you and where you're supposed to go I should try to power through If I got a scurted off scurted If I got to push it away I'll push it away Line back right, you know Oh shit Greg's got fucking beef on him today That's a plus three on the roll I got this suit I'm feeling like I could just walk through walls with this thing So you body check the Minotaur And while it doesn't like fall down You do break through and pass right through it Okay And so you're standing there with Sean She's still pinned underneath the tree It looks like Sean's just been like toe kicking her in the face You three are all done I'm not going to say combat's over But there's nothing happening right now So I'm going to go right back up to the top Sean what do you do? Yeah more of the sign I plus full You basically just like destroy her Septum You can hear her going My lungs grow back I'm going to kill you At that time Wally comes running in with our loose staff And hands it over to you Sean She's carrying my fucking bloody meat sack Yes it's on her back You're on her back and the wound is in her mouth So Maroush, what are you going to do? Just stare at me You're gonna have to stop me somehow Otherwise this entire building's going down And all of these cells are going to break open I'm going to ask Sean if I can use this up for a moment Um go for it I'm going to take my staff And I want to try and teleport Maroush into a working cell Three will rolls Four Four Four Yeah four for four She has teleported into a cell And specifically her celled the one with a ton of psychic dampeners and soundproofing on So you just put Maroush away Inclusively Does anybody want to help my lump of blood over there? Akita Since you were actually imprisoned hours ago And not while this is going down You finally show up and you can see What's clearly like a really nice fancy ship Floating around in Mercury's orbit Safe to assume that it belongs to President Coriel Mm-hmm Do I know where the rest of my team is?
No I'm going to try and get in contact with anybody Just open channel Hey, uh Got kind of sidetracked long story but I made it here Welcome to the party Yeah I got sidetracked by a super villain Figures Y'all can see it like What looks to be the ship Akita's been working on kind of floating nearby Hi Do I see them now? Yeah you can see them I'm going to go land near them There's a ship to ship docking system that makes this really safe You walk on to the President's ship Do you go alone or do you take your boys with you? I'll let them do whatever they want If they want to come with that's fine One of them is like can we meet your dad? I love you I love them I guess Okay cool You guys are free to come with They're all wearing their matching leather jackets And they're like yeah that's cool They're gonna walk behind him Akita will have put one on And he will have gone into his room on the ship To grab the only pair of black pants that he owns So that it doesn't clash Because a black jacket with white pants If this were D&DI would give you an instant level up You and your gorgesh gang walk in And Goryo was not informed that you were doing this He emerges from the room He sees Wayfair and Kerry and he says I've got it, I've got it, look He puts up a display And he goes I put a tracker on Boson Oh thank you Jesus The entire Rijgorg base for this invasion is staged on Pluto We can get there and we can chase him down And then he looks up and sees Akita and drops Thanks for listening to this episode of Weird Adventures in Space Everybody We got another one coming very very very soon And don't be discouraged Sometimes there are happy endings on this show Not all the time though If you want some more stories like this And nice superhero stories Maybe a little villains maybe some teens or something You gotta check out the other shows on the SHU podcast You need a few heroes, tales of villainies And young sentinels You can also hop on over to SHU 2 to check out mini series one shots And exclusive fun stuff If that ain't enough for you Patreon.com.com.com.com.com.com.com.com.com You can support us, this is a Patreon supported show It wouldn't exist without your help And finally Just started a new podcast And I would really like if you checked it out Probably not what you're expecting It's a history show about the history of crime in video games It's called Game Crimes And I don't mean crime in video games As you're doing the crime by pressing controller I mean the history of the black market Of bootlegging Of labor theft So if you would be interested in something like that I head on over to gamecrimespod.com Or check us out over on gamecrimes on twitter That's my bet for the day I'm gonna let everyone else do their plugs I've been your gesel And you can find me at your gesel At twitter.com And please follow me for more recipe suggestions I'm working on a dedicated fizzoolies cookbook There's gonna be a lot of sauce involved And I don't expect it to taste good You should check that out And also I'm on Union of Heroes As Dr.
