Saint does not watch her companions or their travails. She trusts them and knows they rely on her as well. She gets an angle on one of the remaining cylindroids and brings her shotgun up. It dies, its capture tubes spilling pellets of grit as they shatter under her shotgun's impact. COMBAT!

Sage doesn't look good. But Honeybee doesn't have time to worry about that. The Cylindroid is drawing a bead on her. She lunges for cover just as it opens fire. The staccato pings of marble sized pieces of bulkhead rain down around it. COMBAT!

Cleanup (We've decided to fastforward past killing the last non-boss enemy in missions.) The last Cylindroid writhes on the ground, shattered. Honeybee works to stem Sage's bleeding. Saint speaks up, giving voice to everyone's thoughts. "What. The. gently caress?" Sage coughs. Grins with bloody teeth. "Doesn't matter right now. Get the bodies, get the sample they were after, and get us off this thing." Supervisor Mtambe is grateful enough for you saving the platform head that she doesn't even try to stop you hauling off the strange foes. Even gets some of her employees to help you carry them. Dragon has wisely shoved the sample container into the prawn's blasted carapace. Soon enough the mercs are back on the boat. And the silence breaks, everyone speaking at once. Questions, cursing, speculation. Ivette cuts it off with a slash of her hand. "We get paid. That's non-negotiable. We figure out what these things were. Viv, Dmitri, cut them open, figure out who made them. Then we figure out if we want to use our escape clause." "You mean figure out if we can use our escape clause without Geosurge disappearing us," Hobbes mutters. Ivette shoots him a sharp look but doesn't correct him. Loot 1x Sample Container 1x Prawn Corpse 2x Cylindroid Corpse I'm going to open up the thread to IC thoughts and speculations if anyone's interested. Don't worry about one merc saying two different things or acting differently, just curious to see some flavor. Totally optional. Crunchy stuff resumes Monday with our first payday and our first downtime period. Money, levels, and techs, oh my!

Saint rubbed his face for a moment before breaking the silence again. "So, uh," he said, "others may want to disappear us, too. Not just our wonderful corporate family. Surely this is some CIA/FBI level crap where there's gonna be someone in every port trying to find the samples of these things and ask us questions very kindly. Anyone got a bolthole we can beeline to? I hear the Amazon is good this time of year."

We probably can't play dumb too long because our benevolent masters are going to get reports from the people on the platform, I'm really not quite sure what to do. This seems way out of our paygrade but I also want nothing to do with the black helicopter crowd so kicking it up the chain probably isn't smart. I also don't want to keep getting shot at by some general's twelve trillion dollar secret weapon. And why the hell are they running loose on some geothermal platform in the middle of nowhere? I think first research priority's gotta be the sample container, because I can't even begin to guess what the gently caress was going on and that's our main lead.

"Never seen any general's secret project bleed before...", Sage managed to mumble between his bouts of trauma induced delirium.

"Holy poo poo, what is going on?" Dragon cursed when they finally got everything inside the Red Flag's cargo hold. This wasn't her typical tag-and-bag job. She took a better look at the unsettling face(?) of the prawn she'd killed, all wrapped up for transport. She stared at its ruined cranial region and felt herself freaking out at the implications of all this. "...Holy poo poo!" Dragon ejected while staring at the prawn's alien anatomy, gobsmacked. "Piss!" Dragon pulled down on her facemask, exposing her nose somewhat, and started fanning her face with her free hand. "poo poo is crazy - it's so hot in here..." She looked to the rest of the team. She had a voice - she may as well contribute. "This is too FUBAR not to go AWOL. We need to lie low, look and learn."

Captain Foo posted:Gear slot is good, but not getting it until level 4 at best is tough True, but with +2 HP we'll still likely drop to a pair of shots from Cylindroids, and we still need to get a second slot for grenades to actually take proper advantage of our build.
