Standing room only, for the few hours it might take to re-enter the atmosphere and find a decent place to land? Thousands, easily. Maybe tens of thousands if the main cargo bay were rigged up with scaffolding and hammocks.

Most immediate threat, if docking with Branu's Kiss resolved the excess-heat situation, and the ship's inner workings don't crap out in some completely unexpected way, is all that ferrous metal starting to rust.

Paprika floats upward, suddenly nauseous in the lapsed artificial gravity. Zalkezia grabs her arm, thumb on that same spot the blood transfusion was hooked up to, forefinger hooked around the back of the elbow, and pulls Paprika close, almost nose-to-nose.
"Those are the controls to which you're referring? Just... to be perfectly clear with each other."

Can we convince Branu to work with us on fixing the system, or should we usurp control of the watermoon and jury-rig the hardware from the ground up?

After relocating from the CIC, across the short landing in the the still-flooded hangar bay, to the living quarters, Zalkezia rapidly taps codes into the edible-hockey-puck dispenser, persuading it to instead produce, first, a pale orange sponge which exudes acrid-smelling bright purple goo when squeezed,
then a roll of what initially looks like black electrical tape on a thin ivory-synth spool, but which, as soon as it gets wet, swells up into a lacy green ribbon embedded in clear gel https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g0sjRG34DlA with the consistency of chewing gum.
That sponge is packed into Enkelados's wound, and wrapped tightly in place with several layers of seaweed-tape all the way around his shin.
Remaining tape is wrapped onto the princess's own burnt forefinger and palm, then distributed across everybody else's less critical injuries. Last third or so of the spool is stashed in Tacito's medkit, seemingly filling a slot where some already-exhausted stock of bandages were previously stored.

Interesting. I remember the parlor visit when I finally had the guts to get a tattoo. I must’ve been drunk--but I recall liking a lot of the designs on the wall; it wasn’t easy deciding which to pick. It’s strange, these micro-shifts. I could’ve chosen any of them; a slight change without any major repercussions.

I feel I could put off the talk until later--being under the influence makes my brain easily guided by lust.

For a moment I’m in a blurry sea. I feel so many Maeves close to me; every experience feels meshed into one as my hands feel every inch of her body at once.

Hmm.

Before I get engrossed in every nook and cranny detail of the story, I should take a breath, step back, and see this chapter as a simple arc. I need blocks of events to place in order.

Okay, so this chapter is about saving a friend. But Jason also must learn how to accept his power and use his ‘time-shifting’ ability or dimension-hopping or whatever to help the people he’s closest to. The biggest question is... how will Jason get his answer? How will he grow as a person? Screenwriting 101 we have:

1. Maeve Greer is destined to die if she continues her ways.
→ 2. ???
→ 3. ???
→ 4. ???
→ 5. Jason sees Maeve in a timeline where she’s sober. He’s content that somewhere in the multi-verse there’s at least one Maeve who’s happy and safe.

In addition, I wrote a bunch of random-ass story beats. I should choose which could be most important or to expand upon.

Ah-hah! I knew I wasn't seeing things. So that eye on the lantern was Peary all along... Didn't help that Abdle was playing dumb. Did Actus Opus ask Peary to keep an eye on us? How does he feel about that?

Anyways, good job Gramleza.

A: Look Abdle, pushing him off the edge will not guarantee his death. That's stupid. Satisfaction of doing it yourself will not get you anywhere, the possibility he will survive is low, but never zero.

E: You're going to have to have someone else in this chariot kill him instead so we can actually see him die. Pushing him off the edge and flying off without confirming the kill is going to bite us in the ass if he survives.

And yes, I said kill him, as much as I hate to say it, really really hate to say it and have it done. But there's a good chance he overheard some very important secrets that will make him far too dangerous to keep alive, especially when both Bobbie and Abdle were bickering like children and both let slip Bobbie can't harm anyone except herself and Abdle without thinking >>1130859 .

You get yourself loaded into the ZM, you head to the cave entrance, meeting the Junk Division there.

Here we go, the last job. The Monarchy's been pushing a lot of forces here, they know what we're up to. Any words, or shall we get to it?

there'll be time for words after, cause we're all getting through this

hmmm, yeah she might be running out of air. But not here, once you're out of earshot of the bear let Judith know there's someone hiding from the poachers in the box.

The only other person who knew about your fleas is Luanne. You only really told Lana about it, but she showed up at Lana’s place when you were there with fleas. If anyone told her about you, it’s probably Luanne.

Oh yeah, you have to let her know when the bear is out of earshot. tell her to stop/slowdown and let her know now.

A few things stick put about the criminals.
- The weird gargling water noise from the sink coincided with that happening to Lana's sink. In the bar the water was suspicious. In Lana's house, the water bubbled and she passed out - was there gas or poison in it?

- Kaari had her water turned off and it lead to her flea troubles.

Do the criminals have access to the water piping somehow?

- SOMEONE at the bar spiked the champaigne, either the whole bottle or the drinks. Not to mention sabotaged the bar in general, probably to get the band to quit early or something.

While Luanne does know about the fleas issue and her bartending, its not a stretch that Kaari was watched by the criminals at some point.

Dente wouldn't know about the fleas unless he heard it from the talk with Judith. And Judith seems too legit in general. Luanne seems to know both but why would she help Lana then?

I think the bear bugged Judiths office. That would let her keep tabs on the rangers to evade them. And would explain how she knows about bartending/fleas as it was talked about with Judith.

Another note with the criminals, they were entirely too willing to get civvies to kill them or finish them. Either they're spiteful enough to get civvies in trouble for murder in non-self defense (implying a cop is in on this) or they fear getting caught and 'bailed out'.

When you get back home, probably best to double check your sink and check if there's any sign of intrusion or theft (or surveilance bugs).

First priority, tell Judith poachers are pretending to be Rangers, have badges, and were listening in on the frequency you were using.

The wolverine you chased away earlier also had a radio, so its clear the poachers were spying on the rangers or have someone on the inside who knows how things work. Make sure anyone using the radio can properly ID themselves as an actual ranger (ID number, full name, etc) or switches to another frequency.

And if you catch the Wolverine or other poachers, check their frequency, it might be the one used by their criminal group to spy on THEM.

Clearly, the memory wiping was intentional on the part of the other slime (evil slime) so it could do something the animals wouldn't agree with while we (good slime) have the alibi of first-contacting with the humans. Thus, to figure out what the evil slime is trying to do, we must think of something that would be repugnant to the animals, such as... blowing up the research base! Yes, that's what evil slime is trying to do! C: Ask Guy what the most explosive area on the base is, and set up a trap there!

>>1130938
This is a stationary artic base. Why would it have engines? Plus, a bright and cold passage way up is probably outside.

>>1130936
Let's try to think why we would split up. The only reasonable explanation would be that we needed one half to distract everybody, (comms slime) while the other half (vent slime) does some sort of subterfuge. Thus, vent slime should go deeper into the base by choosing option F.

A) As a viscous, fluid-like slime, you are likely affected by the basic laws of physics and thermodynamics. High temperature will likely make you more like a liquid (flowing uncontrollably, but also much faster), but could also kill your offshoot if it pasteurizes or sterilizes you. Low temperature will likely make yoy more like a solid (sluggish, or possibly freeze). Humans can wear full hazmat suits since you prpbably can't cut or stab things.

B) Could be achieved if you get heated up and effectively forced into a puddle-like form, or tricked to pass through a sieve or mesh-like opening to split into a ton of small fragments. Could also have it enter a pipework that loops a lot.

C) Keep broadcasting so the offshoot hears the message from you and is given proper directions, or tell the humans to try diplomacy with it / that 'slime prime' asked to wait.

E) Seems like it could be a refridgerated. sciency area. Probably more people there too.

F) Could be some empty engimeerimg area, boiler room or such.

As such my votes are A) Fire extinguishers, liquid nitrogen and hazmat suits, C) Keep the message on repeat but make it clear its from slime prime, or to backtrack to comms.

For offshoot, go to E). Probably more interestimg stuff there.

>>1130939
An artic base needs heating - lots of it. It's probably a boiler room, power generator or some other kind of basement machine that produces heat. And possibly has drones working there.

Cool and bright is either outside, or a well-lit area that needs cooling (freezer closet, science lab).

>>1130938
Ideally the container is big enough, can't be opened from inside with force (i.e. no corks, bottlecaps or screw-lids) and is airtight. A gas tank or mason jar, for example.

As for getting the slime into such a container, maybe a water-washing vacuum cleaner? It should suck up the slime and safely deposit it into a liquid container (and the centrifuge effect inside will confuse it).

A) Janitor with a hazmat suit and a wet (uses a water container instead of a paper bag) vacuumm cleaner.

C) A wizard did it.
F)

>Scry a bit, see if you can find any readings similar to the Feather.

An inscrutable sound bursts into Sam’s skull and there is suddenly a new map behind her eyes.

No readings come from the left clearing. Two from the right clearing, both dark aligned.

The blue and red arrows from earlier point in the direction the group came from.

>>1130892
The blue and red readings are probably Miller and Mary.
>contained figures both dark aligned
Huh, I think you can spot doppelgangers this way. That is incredibly useful. Well, unless the dark alignment is due to the containment devices. Speaking of those... I wonder what the attached tanks are doing. Are they draining Will? Or are they fueling the containment?
Hmm. Freeing the robotic doppelganger is slightly tempting. She can't possibly pretend to be anyone else, so if she helps us with the fight against Hella, we could agree to shelter her somewhere without worry of her managing an impersonation. On the other hand, we do not know where her allegiances lie, not without a deep understanding of how the minds of doppelgangers work.

Looks like the reading to the "north" is related to the Feather, so we could go that way later.

>Hella's letter, pictured figure in containment, pore?
Ok, I think I know what the problem is. The letter that was in the envelope, regarding the pore, was not present. It's probably in Hella's desk, which obviously we weren't able to search.
The other scraps of paper were nearby by coincidence and are not necessarily related to the pore or letter. At least we now know that Miller's photo was taken of him wearing the mask and coat... and holding a staff or spear? Or maybe that's someone else in the same getup.

>seems sudden, we don't know what Hella is capable of
True. How would we investigate our opponent though? Maybe we can ask the captive doppelgangers? Or do Miller and Mary know anything about Hella?

That symbol to the north, is it related to the feather? it looks similar to the large symbol we interacted with, but that was seven pointed while this one is five. but we have seen this exact one before, on one of the wall carvings in that same room. I don't think we determined what it meant.
and are we sensing, a house?

Some thoughts: The polities on earth a surely at a technological level to be broadcasting TV/Radio (do they have an internet equivalent?) getting access to media from multiple sources could give us some insights into what the world is really like.

Also on a darker note if we do want to influence the world through military tech, simply providing enhanced space tech (especially since this base presumably has some engineering/manufacturing capabilities) could allow for the deployment of orbital mass drivers - fast high density objects from space can reach nuclear levels of destructive power without the same fallout issues.

Okay, the Coalition of Kushana in the 20th century is more advanced technologically, civically and ethically than most everyone in our original timeline at the time.

This leads me to believe something: some of the other crew of the History Unmade survived, landed on the Earth, and fast-fowarded progress where they landed. Who knows, maybe they are still alive right now!

At any rate, I think tge tour might be a good idea. Getting chummy with our new friends and all. We can check the last recording privately afterwards.

It's funny, in wars of ideology there is no geography. There are going to be Hivists fighting within Dacia, and Accumulationists fighting in Kushanasthana, to make theirs the mandatory ideology. The only thing that makes a nation Accumulationist is they had some people go up and say "We are the rulers of Dacia, because we said so, and we order you to eliminate anyone threatening Accumulationism." and nobody shot them in the head during that speech.

Nobody stealing an election in Kushanasthana would ever be anything other than Accumulationist, so it only works one way, interestingly enough. There will still be forces within your border attempting to destabilize any democracy.

Well done maya.

ask him to show you the cool knots he knows

Ask him if he can escort you to the hospital. Both to be a safe presence/person and so he can explain to docs what first aid he already did / your injuries.

tell her the tour sounds lovely and ask her to lead the way.

Just remember to ask a lot of questions so she has to focus on you just as much as the tour and to keep your subtle manipulations going on her whenever she looks your way or talks to you. Once the manipulations start getting her noticeably aroused start acting like you're getting more comfortable around her and become a little more clingy. As in moments when you can't think what to talk about walk close enough for your shoulders to touch or even try and hold her hand if you think she wouldn't mind. If she tells a joke or a happy story give her a quick hug when expressing your own joy. And every time the two of you touch make the subtle pleasure rise slightly for when your touch last longer then a moment or in instances where the contact is brief give her a sharp and large amount of pleasure but make it so quick it could easily be dismissed as a trick of her mind.

Other than that go through the tour and show genuine interest in both what she's talking about and in her, be friendly and kind and show you're starting to open up to her yourself and trust her more, and never leave her side to keep the manipulations up even if she tries to distance herself from you to make it seem like she is getting hella worked up around you.

Oh and on a side note, if she ever makes any remarks or jokes about dating, hanging out, or just being around you give a small jolt of pleasure to her only slightly more noticeable then what you're doing to her normally to "encourage" these thoughts and a much sharper and stronger jolt if she ever mentions anything about sex or making out to you, while you yourself will always take such questions or remarks as her just being friendly and opening up to you to keep up the air of innocents you're trying to build up.

I’m liking what I’m hearing! Let’s also use our subtle rewards system for any time she interacts with her new flower. We’ve given her an object that she associates with us~ That object should quickly become her favorite thing, and if she gets pleasant tingles from looking at and/or touching it, that’ll certainly speed the progress along~ Gives us an extra hook to wiggle into her heart. “Ohhhh~ Why do I feel like this when I pay attention to the flower?? Do I feel the same way about… him??? *looks at us and the feeling intensifies* M-Maybe…” Every little detail counts~

I still say that, A SHRUBBERY [dramatic music] would be an excellent gift. It could have more of the same type of flower, and/or if you really wanna demonstrate your demiurge-like powers, make it somehow grow to chop down the mightiest tree in a forest, A HERRING [dramatic music]

I’ve just realized, if we have power over space, if we bend it properly, could we do time dilation? Something to think about~

As much fun as that would be, I don't think it's that easy. Nehm said that time magic was green and that no Timeline gem is known to have that power.

>>1130760
Oh no, she's prettier AND more terrifying without the mask. We're at risk of nosebleeds, full facial blush and swooning.

>Pretty Murder Lady has ruby eyes and a mutant eye on her forehead
>Lila is multi-armed and STRONG and infatuated by Pretty Murder Lady
>Hive appears to be underwater
>Eldritch mutants abound

I think we're playing Rubyquest: Silksong.

Score.

Flirt badly with the cute murder lady.

>>1130837
Daydream the perfect flirt scenario and outcome. Babble incoherently, blush profusely and scream internally in practice.

Resist urge to abandon current hive/obligations and pledge undying loyalty to your new hive queen Red Pretty Murder Lady.

fight fite fitghe! Punch it outta the air!

let's fire a conquest back

Get your best hackers to disarm the nuke, then roll it in alongside your army as a deterrent and charge into the Coalition.

What if we flew up to it, grabbed it, then turned it around to blow up the humans?

Redcap.
But let out your seductive Vampira side.
Lure her into your service in the name of revenge.
Promise her power like yours and... other things that are still Broadcastable on a teen rating show.

4 might be unwise, you don't want to hurt a fan by accident or send the wrong message to the audience.

Trisha or Redcap. Redcap has it in the name, after all. Trisha for a scare that can be narrated.

Jimmmy can be the one to snap you out of monster mode.

Time to become blood sister with Trisha, or for a blood pack with her. However you describe it just go and kiss her neck with your new fangs.

3) time for round two!

Trisha.

She keeps opening the lockeroom door in front of the paparazzis.
It's for her own good, at this point.

A) Calmly chide the Captain for lack of tact. A kiss isn't something to barter for. Or otherwise criticise his flirting as shallow and objectifying.

That would get the lech rats attention off of Lisel (but also annoy him) and possibly impress or amuse the Duchess.

B) Lisel insults him herself, maybe even threaten to slap him with a glove or napkin.

C) Lisel removes her goggles to hopefully repulse the rat with her burn scar apppearance and make him look a crude fool.

D) Lisel claims she's already taken / loyal to another. Or not interested.

Hey, your girlfriend is in danger. You should do something about it.

Swap places with Lisel at the table, other than that continue the conversion with the bat and pretend like nothing changed.

Schmoove on Lisel by protectively wrapping a hand around her shoulder while she's leaning against you. Depending on how you consider your relationship.

Now that we're not in a frantic life-or-death fight, in close proximity and everything is well lit, I think it's an ideal time to use all your senses to gauge out what the glowing-eyed ones actually are. Are they alive, or dead? Do you smell rot, decay, or see other signs of decomposition/unnatural reanimation? Do they breathe? Why are their eyes glowing/smoking? Any sign of the paper mechanism in their head/under clothes, or the clicking of its mechanism audible?

As for the Duchess, ask what the nobility heiarchy is. Presuambly she's right under the King, so who/what does she govern in this kingdom? Is there a duke she shares lineage with, or other 'noble families' of note?

lisel should tell him he'll have to work much harder for a kiss. perhaps a demonstration of ability since he's feeling so bold?

anyway, ask the duchess ab how the court normally functions. or even the roles the others at the table normally play.

Boat!

Aww.

>>1130716
So the Everburn can be used for the distilling. Good to know.

>Somewhere to sleep
We've been trying to get the Nexus to spit us out something pre-fabbed, but it's looking like we might need to build it ourselves. Meaning those of us with hands. We'll be happy to help as a level measure, though.

Things float in the void, so a boat should work as long as we develop a way to steer and stop without crashing into wherever we're going.

Let's douse specifically for a HOUSE BOAT. That might give us two of what we need, a vessel to outfit for void travel and a structure with space for living in when we're on the move. A mobile base.

Seconding the TROPICAL keyword. Usually where you find that sort of thing.

>Party members
Mel and Fern.

Leave Galena and the Fodders in charge of putting together a better home base shelter with the new materials from the nexus. Galena probably knows better what to do with it, and the Fodders can be her go-fers.

Earth boat!! It'd be fun to have an earth boat

I guess I'd lean towards the mortal disguise. You're not at risk, so playing with a lower power bank isn't that big of a deal.

Quick question: This is a dungeon and presumably has delvers in it, could you do the whole demon classic of - find someone in a dire situation and offer them a deal for help - thing? Could be a way to get summoned by someone already in the place we're aiming for and gives you an automatic minion to act on your will.

TLDR: Become a warlock patron

tail...

hey maybe weird question but that guy that used to be in charge that was turbo awful that you ate wouldn't happen to be your tail now would he

Get summoned by an isekai protagonist mortal. Become their 'isekai superpower/cheat' by letting them fuck/eat others to gain power, eat/fuck your way up to the wizard, claim your prize. Let them keep their permanent pervy enhancements afterwards and gain a potential sex-friend.

On the topic of the horn though, can't we just visit a realm with some giant leviathan skeleton (e.g. some place where a titan died and its bones are now part of the terrain), or a realm of death/undeath and just saw off a horn from a skeleton?

Question: Do your boobs/milk count as a cornucopia of its own? Haviel having a personal portal to one of your mommy milkers sounds like a great gift for an intimacy angel.
