Last time on no latency. Come back to the city.
Something satisfying about walking through those gates.
And quit anytime I want. Someone going to call a car?
Or synth coke addiction. All right, I guess it's me.
Let me look, old soldier. Ain't mine.
It is mine. Remy, how was space for?
You. I was high and out of space and
I just became everything. Yeah, I'd say that it's an
accurate assessment. Goals and to do.
'S. We do have A to do list, yes.
I mean, it's back. There's your coat for Iona.
I got these little lip things that.
We should probably get you to a doctor now.
You've expended a lot of energy. Really.
Stick it into his bus. Doc real quick for just take
your side for a. Moment I got it.
Who's that restaurant? It was Clive.
I think he's getting robbed. Maybe he just got some guns.
For us, but Clive also never calls me.
We do need guns, right? Well, we should go help.
Driving the clives. Driving the clives.
Why are we going to Clives? Because he's.
Were you not paying attention? Yes, he's quote UN quote got
guns for us. Oh, that's right.
That's right. He got guns for them.
That sounds nice. It's nice.
Do they? No, Jeb.
What guns and going to people that probably have guns to shoot
us? Why does he have people there to
kill us? It's probably not his doing.
Well then why are we going? To attack.
Wait. It might not be for us.
To rescue him. Yeah.
We have to protect the better, be rescuing him and then he's
going to give us the guns. All right, That makes a lot of
sense. That's fine, Jeb.
I would let him have it. Jeb, this is more of like a
thing of to see whether or not who's the best shooter between
you and I. So.
Competition will. We'll see.
They do. It takes offense to that.
I do take offense to that. You should, because you're more
male than you are shooter. So OK.
How dare you look? It's not bad, you know.
We all, we all are. We're all here to cover each
other's asses, you know. We all have our strengths and
our weaknesses. Mine just happens to be shooting
things and yours just happens to be having a sweet ass lag with a
cold sword. And other I'm a better shot than
Phoebe. Sorry, Phoebe.
Well. I.
Mean you didn't. Need to throw.
Doc under the bus, but I mean alright.
Well, well, while you're at it, whether the rest of us could add
Jeb. Yes, well.
Obviously the doc is good at doc stuff and you're good at
business stuff. Iona and Retro, you're good at,
like, you know, tech stuff. That is, I thought you were
going to get more into depth with that, but.
Oh, well, I mean, I mean, I mean if you want, if you want to talk
more holistically, I'd say, I don't know, you're a very good.
Impasse. You know, you can really see
what people are feeling and ignore it completely.
That's a great job. I yeah.
You know what? I can't say you're wrong.
That's weirdly accurate. I'm sorry, Iona.
And. That's at all.
We're here. You be there, you're much
getting off of the mouth. But before we get that, do we
want to like plan? It can be dangerous I.
I don't really think we need one.
I think we've handled situations similar to this before.
We just go in and we shoot them and we protect Clive Breach.
And clear. Breach and clear.
Breach and motherfucking clear. Do you want to leave the
vehicle? Can we exit the vehicle or park
it? Basically what I'm saying do we
want to get out? I mean do we want to observe
from inside the the car? Well, I think it's probably
worth having Sloan take a look at it.
But she's gone. I seem to go pick her up.
Where the hell is she? It's on the roof of the bar.
You should have gone and said hello.
Well, I said hello, but she didn't seem like she wanted to
come it. Is, do you think?
That I've been neglecting her. Do you think that's what it is?
You went to space without her, and I can.
Understand, if I was left, if if I had the opportunity to go to
space and my best friend went to space and I didn't get to go
along, I'd be pretty upset too. I should have got.
I should have brought back something for her.
A little souvenir of sorts. Shucks.
Well, anyway, we saving our friend or what?
I'm fine with getting out and taking a look around, so OK.
I could drive around the block if it makes y'all feel better.
Why don't you park in one of those parking spaces?
Oh, sure, Yeah. Hold on.
Just going to back into this one, you know, I always feel
better back and in the spots. You are a back end kind of guy.
You know, whenever I back into a spot, I always think to myself I
am a better driver than everyone else here.
You say it out loud when you do it, too.
That's your. Strength Dad.
You're the driving one I've. Got one of them fancy backup
cameras. Or a beep jab.
Careful, there's a there's a vending machine there.
Jab. Jab roller driving.
Check. Jab, jab, roller driving?
Check. Oh, Jeb.
Let's see if you. If your.
Money is where. Before you roll, which parking
space did you go for? The.
Space 1-2 or. Three very important.
Number one. Oh. 24.
That's fine. I get.
I like to get real close to it. Although if someone did want
something from that vending machine, they are shit add a
lot. So I'm like 2 centimeters away
from it. The The back of Vanna White pops
open with the little release that you've got on near the
steering wheel, and it boots the vending machine just right
because you rolled a 24 and out drops a fresh bag of kibble.
Oh. What flavor?
Dog food. You know.
What like? Sloans.
Dog food for humans in a fashionable way.
Right, But what a flavor. Is the dog food?
Human kibble? Chicken.
Sloan loves chicken. Chicken and gravy.
Chicken and gravy? Yeah, good Lord.
You gotta add water to make the gravy.
Well, sure. I like to like, add the water
with my salava, you know, just gonna pop it in there and just
swoosh around for a bit and then the.
Jab. Don't eat it.
It's really dusty. Oh.
Well, I had to say. Let's leave it for Sloan.
Good point. I'm very surprised you're able
to, like, just carry on talking and not go into a coughing fit.
Well, Dan, that's good. Well, you know, I've eaten a lot
worse. It's.
Probably Jeb's also got a lot of saliva.
Yeah, it's true. I never noticed this other door
here. So you will get out of Vanna
White and you pile into the street outside and Clive's.
Little establishment is in a little alcove between a few
buildings and in front a three parking spaces with three
vending machines behind each one.
And then there's a front door, a vending machine next to it and
then a gate around the corner as well.
So do we go through the front door?
Should we try to find perhaps a side entrance?
It might be worth doing a two prong attack, you know.
Crap move. Yeah.
The pincer move, yeah? Yeah, Pincer move.
That's. Right.
Alright, who wants to go to the side entrance if there is one?
Well, I think we'll, we'll probably need retro.
It looks like the front door is locked, right.
I don't hear anything. Well, Retro, I think you should
come with me so we can keep each other honest on how many
headshots we get. Are we going off headshots then?
Well, of course. Alright, we'll go off headshots,
then head over on over to that gate.
Well, but the front door is locked.
We need you. Oh okay, we'll unlock it and
then come back over, all right. Oh, you're back, Retro.
Hi. Yeah, yeah.
Suddenly Jeb reminded me that I needed to unlock both doors.
Okay. Do we want to like we're just
going to unlock the door and be like, hi, get fucked?
We should unlock it and then. Try to do it, you know, just
quietly don't. And then wait for Retro and Jeb
to get to the other entrance and then we all going to say all at
once and yes, then hi. OK.
I think. Well, if it is true people and
they're ready to kill our friend, then I don't think you
know. No, no amount of clandestine
operations are going to save his life.
I think we got to go in there drugs blazing.
I will get my shield ready my bulletproof shield as we walk in
and you know the whole breach and clear thing we got to got to
shield up. We walk in.
Think that'll help. Then I'll turn your half shield
on. Oh, OK.
And turn mine on as well. Retro 16, yes, the door unlocks.
It's a little loud, but luckily. The noise of the door unlocking
is overshadowed by the slight sound of a small explosion.
And then you hear the muffled noise of frustrated gangers.
I'll damn it. It's made of like falling steel
or something. Sounds like they're using
explosives in there. We'll go to the other door and
we'll. Get it going and.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. The other door.
The other door, Yeah. OK.
I forgot about the other door. All right.
And then just call us when you're ready.
And remember, tell Jeb not to shout.
We have got communicators. OK.
Shout Retro. What was that?
It was like a big boom or something.
Yeah. Don't shout.
Talk. Quiet.
Stop, stop. Talk.
Stop talk. OK.
What's in front of you, Jeb and retro is a fence, so.
And you can kind of see into sort of a private area behind
Clyde's and on either side of the fence you can see through
it. If you move, you'll be able to
see a few things. Yeah.
What is that? Looks like another door back
there and some sort of mechanism.
Is about half a foot higher than.
Jeb is tall, so climbable. Or unlockable.
All right, let's see if I can unlock it first.
Unlock. Yes, not only do you unlock the
chain link fence behind the building, you also managed to
work out how to make a copy of the key so you now have access
to this gate forever. Oh sweet.
I thought it was just that the lock was just that little lift
up thing you had to do. That's it.
You just reach around the back and kind of just pull those.
Yeah. Or or you get a forever key.
I don't know. I'm just trying to be a nice GM
for the crit. I'll take the forever key.
I've got Forever key to a gate. Alright, let's let's quietly
sneak in. I'm rapping on you.
Do do, do, do, do. I wonder when they're gonna text
us. Letting us know that they're
going in. I think, I think, I think we
can, we can trust that Retro will actually call us because
unlike Retro doesn't really actually want to die.
I checked the back. There's two more parking spaces,
but nobody's parking them, and a couple of air conditioners.
Those are Porta poties. What?
Those are Porta potties. Oh, they're Porta poties.
Just say. There are two Porta potties
behind the building. Oh, OK, hold on.
We'll see it. It's not like we're here just
before we get going. One moment.
No, Jeb, come on. All right, I'm going to go to
the device, the door, and hold on.
I got to roll something myself, All right, I just to lock Jeb in
the Porta potty. You know something they don't
tell you is that you got to close, You got to close the the
toilet seat. On these Porta potties, because
that's how it gets stinky, people leave it up And that one
was lift up. These people are animals.
Did you you used one of those like seat covers, right?
What? No, no one needs those.
What? We talking about?
I was you at. Least not make a nest with with
toilet paper around. I was peeing.
Alright, that's fine by the way. Alright, I'm going to, I'm going
to crack open this door. So this is an electronic lock.
Yeah, so. 27. Geez, the DV.
For the back door was 18. Now the benefits of getting over
You didn't even roll a crit. That's insane. 27 means you get
to see through to the panel on the other side and through the
very fuzzy little black and white screen.
On the left hand side as you come in, you can see that
there's a guy with a Mohawk standing between 2 lockers and
then the door unlocks silently all.
Right, I'm going to send a text via my tile to VV and say we're
in breaching clear in three. OK everybody another.
Text to. All right, then another text.
Get ready. Preaching clear, preaching
clear, and we enter. Preaching clear, motherfuckers.
Oh my. We hear Jeff yell.
Across. Hey, No Latency listeners, It's
Spoon. I play Jeb here on No Latency.
But I also produced the brand new show System Switch, and it's
called System Switch because every few episodes we take our
sane, beloved characters and throw them into a completely new
universe in the form of a new role-playing game.
We'll go from steampunk to cyberpunk, from fantasy to
scifi, from romantic comedy to dark comedy from D&D.
To call of Cthulu. And everything in between.
So join us on our romp through the multiverse by searching for
System Switch on your favorite podcasting app.
Jeb, you've entered the backroom of this place.
It's where all the deliveries come through, but not really
where things are stored for very long, because this isn't like
super secure or so the walls are fairly thin.
As you step inside, you have a little peek on your left.
You can see a few lockers, some crates, some sofas at the end
where someone could relax, like if Clive has any workers or
people who want to chill before he does paperwork.
And in the distance, you can see another dude in this room as
well. Breach and clear, motherfuckers.
And Jeb bust like kicks down the door and rolls a smoke grenade
into the middle of the room, which I imagine goes off and
creates. A roll for that?
I'm not trying to do damage and. I'm like.
Like, how badly could I fuck this up?
I'm just rolling a smoke grenade into the.
Middle of the room well. It's.
Not it can cause fire. There it is, 13.
And my hope is to run in there with the smokescreen, run up so
that I am within kissing distance of the closest gang
ganger and just put my gun right up to his head and then go.
This one counts as one and then pull a trigger.
This time I am going. To be using my.
Boom. OK, so the smoke grenade goes
off and fills the center of the room with a big.
Puff of smoke and as it dissipates you lose sight of the
guy on the other side of the room.
But it's a big enough distractions that you get right
up and close to the guy that's near the door and you pull your
gun out and you shoot him for 22 doing 12 damage.
Now you called that shot, Did you shoot him in the head?
Yeah, I just. I like to think that I put my
barrel right up to his temple. So you go up to this guy, pull
your gun out, shoot him in the head.
And because you hit 22, and that's way above what you need
for that chord shot, you do double damage after armor.
So that's 14 damage in total. He's just above half health.
Yeah, And he looks at you. Who the?
Fuck are you? You're the worst.
No, you just shot me in the foot hold.
On Let me do my thing. I was gonna say your worst
nightmares. Let's be scary.
Ah, man, you ruined it. Oh, I'm sorry.
At least don't have a rate of fight of two.
Oh, you do, don't you? Yeah, bang. 23 You didn't call
it this time, so it does 9 damage.
That's fair. Did you?
Shoot me in the fucking head. While I was trying to, we kind
of dipped and weaved. It, kind of got some of the
clavicle. That's why it looks like took a
few little bit out of my armor. Shit, fuck you.
Fuck you do. You end up there.
Yeah. All right, cool.
Nice job. That was fun.
In the other room I am convinced to.
Fight. And so Vivi busts the door open,
and I. That's right.
Yeah, I. I slide in right behind and I I
slide across the floor up against the desk, the front desk
to duck down and I see that there is one person to the.
East, I guess just at the end of the desk, and I'm hiding from
the other two. I'm going to take a shot at the
person out in the open. Cool.
They look more important and tougher.
They do look bigger, but you still pull 21, causing 12 damage
total, and you see it glint off a piece of their armor and do a
little bit of damage to their sort of torso area and their
shoulder flinches back. And this.
Rocker chick with purple hair tied back into a tiny ponytail
looks at you and goes where? The fuck are you?
This is our score. Also, how?
Fuck you. I was supposed to say nightmare,
but but you ruined it. Never mind.
And you only have a rate of fire of one, right?
I do. I do.
That's it. So I'm just.
I'm ducked under the desk. The counter, baby.
I would like to move in with my shield and I actually think I
would like to place it like right at the edge of this
counter to make a little like line of cover for Iona and I.
So I place it down and I honestly despite doing this.
I do so much better with with melee because of my bat.
So I'm going to, I'm going to take a risk and I place the
thing, the shield down and then I.
Go out. And try to smash this person in
the face with my baseball bat. Try to smash me in the face of
your baseball bat. Yes.
That's insulting. Oh fuck shit. 17 damage.
That's like. That's that's a lot of damage.
That is, that's more than I normally do.
All right. All right, retro.
Let's see what what you got with this thing.
And I just like, I take a swing and I feel like it's a lot
lighter too than it normally is. It's like one of those light,
like professionals that they use like the really light baseball
bats. I don't know actually if they
do. The softball bats are very
light. So I I smash.
I smashed this person and oh and they I want them.
Can I dump them? I'm like, I'm ready to spend all
my luck points just so I can. You get another hit.
So the first hit, you're surprised by the different
weight of the bat as it whooshes past this chick's face.
You missed. And I maybe.
My son would be damaged. I could fuck up, didn't roll 15,
and they dodged the other way. Well, you got lucky this time.
Luck's got nothing about it. It's all about rolling.
Actually. Know, it's got a lot about luck,
isn't it? Vivi, unfortunately you moved
pretty far in this room. I know.
I'm scared. So you're now.
Basically stuck I. Know I'm a prime target.
Yes, you are. I mean, good luck.
Everything's fine. It is their term though.
Now this chick smiles at you and pulls out a Gun Mart special.
Guess you didn't see this coming and.
Shoots. You and they shoot you for 12
damage. Ow OK.
Strike ow strike. Gets you twice too.
Bang. And they hit you again for
another. Time.
Geez, okay. That was really rude.
Also, it's my turn. What about like self aware?
This whole fight is extremely self aware.
I mean you report. It it is what?
Do I do I own it? Why are you asking me?
You should shoot something or or go up and.
See me I I don't. You are your own person, Vendo
okay. I'm going to.
I'm going to do something. Yes, should go up and and stab
the vendel kicks off the vending machine, jumps over the
bulletproof shield and steps in front of VV, pushing VV back
towards the bulletproof shield but not over it.
They are now in front of. This rocker chick.
And they pull out that blade and they go to slash 14.
Well, good thing there's a is A2 attack.
It is. Yeah.
Oh my God, my goodness. This person is speedy.
They. Rolled a crit on evasion and
managed to push Vendell behind them towards the wall, splitting
the party in the room. Fuck well, that didn't go very
well. They're really fast.
I don't. I don't understand like what?
Maybe they went to the the Bubble Cafe?
Maybe. Are you high on drugs?
What? High on drugs insulting.
Back to the other room, Jeb. That gang ganger stands in front
of you, squares himself up. All right then.
Think you've got it, do you? He pulls out.
A very heavy pistol when he shoots you, hitting you for 21,
only doing 8 damage. Yep, that was fair.
I feel this is almost like a Civil War reenactment.
Yeah. You know, because we're we're
just taking turns shooting each other.
So I'm gonna hide. And they take a step back and
they open up one of the locker doors.
Interesting take. Themselves a little bit of
protection, meaning you'd have to reach in towards them to do
something. That's right, you you can't see
me now because I'm buying this door.
Yeah, brilliant. Great.
Great thinking, bud. Oh shit.
There's a lot of smoke. I don't, I don't see anybody in
here. Jeb's right in front of you.
You bumped into him. Jeb, what the hell?
Where they at? Are they even in here?
I'm assuming you just start smoke into an empty room.
I. Don't know.
There's another one on the other side.
I got this guy. Just run through there.
He won't even see you coming. All right, I'm going to make a
mad dash through then that to get here.
And do I see anybody? I don't think so.
Oh, shit. All right, you just came out of
the smoke. Yes, I did.
Oh, you've got a gun. This isn't good.
Yeah, I'm sorry about this. I got a window and I'll shoot
them directly in the face with my shotgun.
Oh damn. Then it's a cold shot.
Oh yeah, using. Any luck?
Nope. OK, well, not this time.
Cold shot. Bam. 22 yes, yes.
So double damage to the head, which is, oh God, that's 32
damage. Good Lord, to the head. 32
damage to the head is what you've done.
Yes. So I'm going to tell you right
now, you've done 27 damage to this person.
They go below half health, part of their helmet flies off and
lands on the sofa, and I'm going to roll critical injury. 6
Broken jaw or. Like shot off jaw.
Yeah, exactly. This guy's jaw.
You see, as the armor on his headpiece blows off the helmet,
turns and snaps his jaw to the left.
It's now dislocated and he falls to the ground and is now holding
his face. He looks you in your screen
face. Don't cry.
The pain only lasts a moment and then I shoot them again and
directly in the head. Oh damn.
And your second bullet misses bullets, ricocheting around the
room and digging into the sofa. Oh shit.
Oh wow, that is actually a very nice fainting couch.
I love you, Retro. That was cute.
But damn, no, I missed the Mr. shot and I can't think of.
Anything else? No, I'm done.
Like I can't think of anything else at the moment.
This guy on the ground looks at you and he has basically lost
his ability to speak. What pulls out a gun and he's on
the ground and he points it at you.
I mean, it's a -, 2 to hit, but it doesn't matter.
Because he runs a brick. 23 + 1. Hitting for. 24 damage.
No, he he critted on every single one.
The the guy is a legend. Holy.
Still a regular? It's still only a regular, so
this matches a little bit less to you, but as when he shoots
you, a piece of shrapnel gets stuck into your cybernetic arm
and it now makes a clanking noise.
Which means until you get that fixed, you're about as stealthy
as a bell. You have like a wing.
And also it gives you the sensation of pain.
And I'm going to say that 24 damage is fine, but it a blazer
armor by two, not one. Wow, that's four sixes.
That never happens. Holy shit.
Well, now it's now happened at me, you.
Going to go to Sawtooth after this.
Probably that was a big hit. Back to the other room, one of
the gangers is setting up a charge on this door.
That they're trying to get into. He's started work on that while
his other friend guards him. If you let him do, if you let
him alone, he will end up doing something it looks like and the
other ganger squares up behind him on the desk and has the
clearest shot on Vendel. Rolling a crit 21 + 2, causing
13 damage. The bullet sails across the room
and hits Vendel square in the. Chest.
I'm calling some shenanigans on this.
It's a very hairy pistol so I can't shoot it again, but fuck
off, this is our score. It's very rude.
You shouldn't have shot me. I'm gonna fucking kill you and.
We moved back to the other room where Jeb, you're now standing.
Surrounded by smoke and to your left so the locker door open.
Jim, like, slowly takes a few steps towards the locker in
which the gang ganger has locked himself in.
Have you built you in there? Still in there?
No, no. Now I got a question for you.
Are these doors bulletproof? You know, you know, I didn't
really think about. That.
Twice. 25 twice 20. Five.
Twice. You shoot 2 bullets through this
door and you hear them go through his body and stick into
the concrete wall behind him. And then I open the door.
Is he dead? He's dead.
So I opened the door and I checked to see if it was a
headshot. One of those was a headshot.
Roll. Is he 10/5?
No. Well, I got one retro from
before. You did shoot off a pinky in the
process. Oh, I got us pinky.
Zach have or something. Roll Resist Torture Drugs. 12DB
was 13. You have to eat this finger.
Jeb alone in the corner in the middle of this fight.
The pinky of this dead ganger sits in the palm of your hand.
Wow, you arm a might go for a snack.
Roll 1D four and then take that as he'll 2HP.
I'll. Take it but he.
He's dead. I close the door on him.
You stuff him into a locker and close the door.
Walk back into the corridor. That's like where there's.
Still a bit of smoke. I've eaten the pinky as if it's
like a. Corner.
Of the cob, you know, like and then I just have like the just
like the bone left of the pinky and I kind of just like shove it
through one of the bullet holes of the door, so.
Wow. There you go.
Gross. Back in the other end though,
Iona is hiding behind the desk where they have bought so many
weapons. I am going to hop onto the other
side of the desk and well, this won't let me go over desks, so
I'm just going to bring my token around and I'm going to grab the
ganger that is closest to the desk and put my gun up to his
head. Listen, what if you don't stop
your friend from opening that door?
I'm going to shoot you in the head this close.
Do you know what happens when somebody shoots you in the head
this close? No.
You die. Oh.
Right. Roll the face down.
All right, Cool. Press reputation plus one D10.
Cool press reputation plus one. D10 I don't.
Remember what my reputation? Is.
I think it's six, maybe 5-6, OK. All right, one D10.
Oh. Yeah, baby.
Oh. That's 23 baby oh.
That is. Oh.
I got, I got, I got 18, which is not bad.
This is not bad. I've been rolling really well
today. D3 Oh, baby.
Like, I mean, you can't stop the others, but I I mean, I.
Fuck it. And he jumps over the bar in
Clive's Weapon Shop. And makes a beeline for the door
turning away from you. You can still shoot at someone
else. Yeah, I all right.
I wanted you to stop the other one, but I guess I will.
And so I shoot at the person at the door, not the one that ran
away from me. The one that's unlocking the
door. Oh, yeah, the one that's facing
away from you so you can shoot them in the back of the head.
Yeah. Now I I hear you, 2323.
That is a that is a cold shot. The back of someone's head 23 -,
8. Yeah, that's above 13.
Yes, you do 24 damage to this person.
Cheers, man. You guys, it's getting serious.
This is the day when one of us dies.
No, it's not. That would have happened in
space. Yeah, it would have happened.
How many? Crits.
I know it's a little. It's all.
Concerning. You managed to get this guy
under half health. He rolls A4, smashes his face
against the door and you hear this like pop noise, like a
grape going and he's unfortunately damaged one of his
eyes. Fuck.
Not a fucking pirates. I'm from Newcastle.
Fuck, I know, not there. But that is awesome that you
shut out their eye from the back of their head.
Yeah, it's pretty grotesque. That's what the table said.
It's baby's too. All right, let's go for this one
again. The rocker chick with the cool
hair. Are they ever?
I have a question. Are they cute?
Crazy hot, crazy hot. This person is.
Bit as kiss, kiss, kiss, kiss, kiss rocker.
Chick and I was like. Like like Natalie Portman, but
when she shaved her head. Like Beefer, yeah.
That kind of fit. Oh, OK, Well, if that's the
case, I was going to go for your face, but maybe I shouldn't.
And I'm going to try to sewing again with my baseball bats.
Let's see how fast you are this time. 13.
I've got to put luck into this. The next one I'm going to, Yeah,
yeah, The next one I'm going to put Luck Points into.
Now you've flirted with this person across.
The battlefield. So I'm going.
To give you a -, 1 to their evasion for a very good
distraction. What the fuck A.
Mild flirt. You know, gets, gets.
You somewhere in. This little moment as you lock
eyes and you give this chick this little side sly smile.
You lock eyes and she kind of softens a little bit and then
your baseball bat makes contact with her chew as her face
careens to the left, she staggers towards some lockers.
Ow, fuck. Sorry, I did say I wasn't going
to go for the face, but it still looks good and I'm going to
swing again. Let's see how many.
Look, I'm going to throw three luck points into this one.
So 18. 12. Didn't even need to.
The second hit swings the other way, pushing them back to the
other side. Of the room they take 14.
That takes them under half. Health and cuddled injury table.
Oh, that's never good. Did you hit them in the face?
Yeah, even though I said I'm going to.
So bit you your second hit. Cracks right across the side of
their eye, and you watch their eye and a part of their face
crush into blood pouring down from the socket.
Well 2 ones that eye is gone. The other one's damaged.
This one's gone. Ish.
What the fuck? You're swinging well.
Hey, do you? It's OK.
Eye patches are really cool. We don't know that we're in the
other room. Phoebe, why'd you have to hit
the hot one? Sorry.
I mean, I I didn't want to, but. You know, it happens.
Now it's the hot one's turn. Now it's the hot one's.
Turn Dick and they pull out. A sword.
A sword.
Oh, melee to melee. Let's see how this goes.
And they swing at you beat 15. 18 yes, the.
First sword hit falls to the ground range attacks a -, 4, but
not close up for some reason, and they swipe at you again,
this time failing miserably as the sword falls out their hand
and slides across the room towards the door where.
The other ganger is trying to break in.
Fuck. It's just not your day.
Fuck off. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Vendel rolls a 20. Crit.
So with a total of Vendel rolls a crit for a total of 27, doing
12 damage to the back of this person and they swing again.
This one they get to evade. Second one they get to evade.
Not the first one, because they were facing the wrong way.
What are they going to evade? 1400 just missed, just missed
that evasion because Vendel hit them for the 15, that's nine
damage. Yet again, they are very low on
health. They are not having a good day
at all. That is, it is bad for that
person. Does Vendel do anything else?
No. I think this, I think this.
Beating the shit out of this chick between Phoebe and Vendel
is working out. Pretty well, yeah, it is.
He's dead. It's Retroston.
You know, I don't really have to.
As they look at me in fear. There's half falling apart.
I'm going to take cue from what I heard from Jeb and as I walk
past them, exclaim I am Morpheus.
Sweet dreams and below the back of their head as I walk past
them. And they die.
You still have enough movement to open the door if you want.
And I will kick open that door. Is there any enemies within my
shot range? The the really hot chick with
blue hair I. Will aim for them and also
shoot. Not in the not an aim shot
though. I just said I'm Morpheus. 17
That hits 18 damage, hits them square in the chest.
They go flying across the room, smack their head against the
bulletproof shield, and bleed out on the ground.
Hey my. Dad.
Oh no. Oh no.
There's only one person left in
this room who's holding their eye and they turn around and
they look at you all. And like, burst into room pulls
out a tiny green gun, points it at the guy near the door, and
should mess with the Welshman stuff, you know, pulls the
trigger. And there is the most incredibly
loud bang. Like crazy.
Loud. There's a lot of smoke left in
this room. A lot of you can't really.
You don't really know what happened.
But when the dust clears, there is a pure perfect cylinder hole
through this guy's skull. Right?
Thank. What the hell was that?
The green gun. It was the green gun.
Thanks for saving me everyone. Should I put on some?
Tea. Yeah, I could really go for some
tea, actually. That sounds fantastic.
It does sound good. What the fuck was going on?
Next time, no latency. What the?
Fuck is going on here. Well, it smells like a campfire
in there right now, so. That's.
I mean, that's a mighty fine door.
Where is the other one? The other perpetrator they ran.
Away but we're. Back.
And that's all that matters. How many headshots are here?
I only got the one. I got one.
I kind of had one. Everybody got one.
You don't happen to have the latest?
That's what I'm looking for. Oh, no, that's.
Rule #1 has never worked for free.
That's in the handbook. Do I have an invite to the
Kerrigan market? Retro comes back with a tray of
shots. Don't underestimate me.
Did she say bubble tea? I really appreciate your help
Iona. We really did not take care of
Claire the way. That we should have.

anything about helping people at a cost to us in the pamphlet.
