IT IS watching us, I'm sure, so trying stealth at this point would be rather useless.

I have a crazy idea. We attach the metal cable to the generator and the bridge. Then we fuck up the generator with our wrench and mechanical skills to cause a short circuit, electrifying the bridge thanks to the cable.

We attract the monster and hammer the fucker into the bridge, frying it.

>>225963
Uh, that makes it impossible to cross the bridge without warp :|

It also sounds kinda dangerous. I mean, how would we connect the current to the cable without killing ourselves with the electricity? It's not like we have jumper cables or rubber gloves.

How about we just check around briefly to see if Nu's coming out of hiding, and then try to sneakily sneak down to get the chest?

well that's certainly borderline suicidal. Effective but suicidal. Let's just go down and face it like a man.

You ignore the seemingly more dangerous idea to lure the monster out into the opening. You slide down the cable carefully down to the chest. You release one arm in order to take hold of it.

Now you have to figure out how to get back up. You hear some movement, but due to the echoes it's hard to figure out where the noise is coming from.

stand up with the wall as the floor and throw it over, then climb.

...I guess we can do that.

>>226173
Attach the cable to the chest, then bubble-warp out.

I mean, assuming you can't just bubble-warp out WITH it.

Throwing the chest is still not going to put you in a great position. You can still get jumped while you're hanging there.

Warp back as close to the entrance of the area as you can get for a quick escape. If you couldn't warp while holding something, there would be no inventory.

You hurl the chest upwards as carefully as you can despite the voices piping up at the last arc of the throw to not do it. It lands safely up on the ledge and you begin climbing up diligently up until near the top.

The cable is tugged upwards by a powerful force, and your arm is taken by a firm black hand.

"Hello, my sweet."

hugs and kisses!

HUG NU
OPEN CHEST

Also see if he wants his bracers.

Immediately jump on him and receive sharkisses. When you get a chance, ask about the whole 'being undead' thing, and how he's got that workin'

Ah finally! That guy shows up! Anyway straight and to the point.

YOU GAVE US UNDEAD AIDS YOU JERK! D:<

Happy reunion first. Then smooches and squeezes, THEN undead interrogation. Priorities, people.

"Oh by the way! You might be turning into a zombie now! Sorry! Look on the bright side:you're a stoner, most of your brain cells were dead anyway!"

Epsy I thought we could trust you?!

Bite him, then say "Ha, now you'll turn into a zombie!"

You osculate your assailant.

>>226419

D'aaww :3c

Once you're done with the osculations ask him where has he been, if he has seen anything interesting or important.

Casually tell him that you're apparently undead, so necrophilia isn't a problem between you two anymore.

And then open the box.

Aww, see? Much more important than silly questions. Just snuggle for now, who cares about some dumb chasm monster.

>>226419
Let's tell him what we've been up to as well. Explain that you lost some of your memories but they're coming back gradually.

>>226424
He probably knows that by now since he had to give his name.

Wrap your left arm around him, then unwrap your right. Compromise!

>>226426
Yes, but we should still say it, partially so he knows we know, and also so that he knows we're getting better.

Okay, NOW harass and/or question him about sudden undead-ness.

Grope with bone arm, make boner joke.

Tell him that you're not as easy to kill as you used to be.

Cuddle first! Very important. Then ask, but don't imply that it was a direct result of premarital relations.

Fine, finish your sickening cuddling operation first. THEN inform him of your increased resistance to dying horribly.

>>226459
Clearly you do not grasp the very significance of cuddles. This takes precedence. Or should I ask the lovely Miss Maytag?

You break the kiss after a quiet moment of holding each other. You clamber around and give Epsilon his lost bracers and then collect your cable.

You then retrieve your prize from the chest...

It's a note, and a Joker Playing Card.

Son of a bitch.

"Hey, Asali. I know it's a little weird that I have to charge you for training with your psychic powers, but now would be a good time to decide what you'd like some help with."

[ Epsilon Nu Delta's Psionic Upgrades ]

Pre-cognition (Related, Foggy Visions and Hints)
>Level 2: 10 (Clearer visions)
>Level 3:+15 (Clear, direct visions)

Offensive Aura (1.5x attack modifier using Aura)(+1 to Criticals)
>Level 3: 15 (2.0x attack modifier using Aura)(+3 to Criticals)

Telepathy (Communicate through thought, Medium Suggestion, Medium Range)
>Level 3:+15 (Control thoughts, Severe Suggestion, Longer Range)

Psi Recovery Level 2:10 (1/6 Chance Recovery(+1 Psi)
>Level 2:10 (1/3 Chance Recovery (+1 Psi, Bonus Chance on Crit))
>Level 3:+15 (1/2 Chance Recovery (+1 Psi, Bonus on Crit))

Same Rules as before. If you buy Level 3, you need to buy Level 2. A jump from level 1 to level 3 costs 25 points.

I say Level 2 precognition (so we get less cryptic images) and Level 3 Offensive Aura (kicking MORE ass).

Better not to burn all our money, we don't know if we're gonna need it later.

Why do we not have recovery let's get some recovery.

Also more combat, sure.

>>226560
Telepathy level 3 and precog level 2

Also, ask him how long you've been undead, and what he can tell you about it.

>>226564
yeah, recovery and combat.

At least we know Chu is alive? Depending on how old that note is.

Well then. Considering the last encounter with the chasm beast, an upgrade to offensive aura might be in order. Can't rely on a new hammer to make up the difference.

Offer him anal in exchange for a discount.

>>226562
this and a level of recovery, come on he can slide one point for us!

Telepathy Lv 3
Psi Recovery Lv 2

Cost: 25 (unless there is a discount)

>>226568

Since I only voted for one I'll put one in for recovery. I like the visions to be a little cryptic. It's no fun if it's too easy.

Go go gadget Recovery!

Ask Nu where he's been and what he's been up to, tell him of your adventures as well. Also question him about whether or not he's seen a pretty, little skunk anywhere in his journey.

P.S.
I vote for both level 2 recovery and pre-cog.

Precognition 2
Recovery 2

“Nu. I am undead, apparently. Do you know anything about it?”
“You've been undead since you came to my home in the forest at the earliest. You were alive before then. It doesn't make a big difference to me. I'm sorry if you didn't know.”
“Is there a reason you charge me money to improve my powers, you're my boyfriend.”
“There is, and I apologize that I must. It would take quite a while to explain, darling.”
“Could I get a discount if I offered anal.”
“Did that work before?”
“No.”
“Alright then. I need to show you something in this mountain. I will carry you there.”
“I can get training on the way, perhaps?”
“Perhaps.”

[ Upgrades ]
Level 3 Offensive Aura
Level 2 Psi-Well Recovery
Back burner: When one more point is gained and Epsilon is around, level 2 Pre-cognition will be acquired.

(Some of the votes were after I already began working on this. Seems a fair enough compromise)

Ok that's adorable, proceed.

>>226656
You've got time, so ask why he needs to charge you.

Obviously he charges money because your psychic powers are made out of money. Gold plated powers. You don't want that cheap ripoff chrome plating do you? Didn't think so.

“Asali, we need to stop for a moment.”
“Why is that?”
“Give me your hand. No, your left one.”

Epsilon Nu Delta carefully adorns a ring to your finger.
“That's been a while coming. Second, thank you for those bracers, I need to show you what else is in my pocket. It is also related to where we were walking. I figure you might know what this vial is for by now.”

“No, but I know someone who wants it. Which is where we are going, but why? I mean I don't have a problem with Eden, but why would you take me there yourself.”
“He has a problem with you, I can promise you. I guess that long story I mentioned is inevitable. While we are training I am going to tell you a story before we have another Reunion.”
