Also you didn't say if the hatch was closed or not, goddamn it. This is information we need.

"Was up there with Coranto. Was going back t'my room when turbulence hit. Coranto's not up there anymore. Help him."

At that point you can safely pass out, since you did the best you could.

Try to tell them someone fell off.

The hatch was still open.

>>349682

At least this time it didn't HIT you.

The man helps you up.

>'Seriously, what the hell just happened? Do you need medical attention? You should probably get medical attention. Dammit, so much is going wrong.'

'No ... dammit. It's fine. I'm fine. Listen. Coranto was up there with me, and when I went back up he was gone. I think he fell off the ship.'

>'What?! I'm pretty sure he was just in his quarters. I'll go back and make sure, and if not we'll descend and send out someone to look for him. If you're okay, you need to get back to your room. Things are going kind of crazy here, and you need to get out of here either way.'

>>349928
Agree. So long as they find him.

>>349928
"And my day was going so well, too."

Go get some proper clothing on, then return to Pavane's room.
Actually, just pack up everything and move into her room. You can crash on her couch or something, and if things get really bad you'll be there to tell her "I told you so". Or, you know, be able to help mitigate the disaster instead of being an ass about it.
Or, more importantly, being there so she doesn't need to worry about hypothetical bad things happening to you while the ship is in chaos.
(Also? Your room sucks, and she likes offsetting your luck.)

Go with the stranger. Do not headbutt him.

You make to follow the man to check on Coranto, but he quickly ushers you out of the area that you aren't supposed to be in.

Since you're right there, you decide to stop by your room and put on some actual clothes, as well as quickly packing your things. The ship is starting to go pretty damn crazy at this point, rocking back and forth as it continues to climb.

The PA chimes in while you are getting dressed:

>'Attention all passengers: There is an emergency on the ship. All passengers should proceed to their rooms and remain there in case lifeboats need to be engaged. Every effort is being made to regain control of the situation, but your safety is our absolute priority.'

Well shit.

>What shirt would you like to wear?

You need to find Pavane. Only with her presence do you and/or the ship have any hope of survival.

Also I am contractually obligated to recommend the Steveshirt.

Wear one with either a good-luck or bad-luck symbol on it, for irony.

>>350315
Voting for Steve shirt as well. Because it is bright orange, and will be easier for rescuers to see amidst the shipwreck debris. Of course you could be dead by then but let's be honest, you aren't that lucky.

You quickly select a brightly-colored shirt, gather your things, and head off toward Pavane's room. Almost immediately after you leave your room, you hear another loud CRACK and a crashing sound coming from your room. You opt not to bother checking, figuring it's best to hurry on to Pavane's.

As you round the corner, the ship pitches violently off toward the stern. You manage to keep your balance, but lose it as a chair careens out of the dining hall and crashes straight into your ribs.

The PA comes on again.

>'The storm has continued to worsen, and we have not been able to regain control of the ship. The decision has been made to abandon ship. Lifeboats are being readied, and can be accessed from the hatches in your rooms. Please proceed to them in an orderly fashion and await rescue. The craft should contain enough supplies for a week, and a rescue craft should be by once we fail to make a call at the appointed time.'

Fuck.

keep hoofing it. this thing will land weirdly and you will probably wake up on the island alive no matter what. so keep going.

Must... find... Pavane...
And... possibly... Coronto...

That cracking sound can't be good. I wouldn't trust your room to be accessible to lifeboats of any sort, considering your luck. Find a hatch somewhere else. If not Pavane's room go through someone else's.

>>350579
This flying turtle isn't capable of an aquatic landing; if you ever meet the designer make sure to headbutt him right in the groin.

Run like fuck to Pavane's room. Don't stop for anything.

>>350656

Given that the PA said that they didn't have control of the ship, you're pretty sure the turtle isn't capable of ANY sort of landing right now.

You make your way up the stairs. This entire deck is soaked, probably with the water from the pool. As you make your way toward Pavane's room, the crazed bucking of the ship seems to lessen slightly, but it feels almost like some sort of rumbling sensation is building up as you go.

When you reach the hallway before Pavane's room, she's already outside of her door with a towel over her bathing suit.

>'Galliard? Where are you? Are you okay?'

get some speed then slip on purpose so you land on your ass so you don't trip for real and gore her.

Fall on your ass on purpose.

quickly! Go sweep her up in your arms! Now is the time where you must prove yourself to the gods and forever turn your bad luck around! Rescue the lovely damsel from danger!

Crawl across the ground toward her.

>>350883
Since the floor seems to still be the floor that means they're keeping it mostly level. If it COULD float then hitting the water while level would be how it would do it.

Since you're not having trouble touching the floor it's obviously not an uncontrolled descent.

Put your bag of clothes over your horn and rush over to her, then grab her and start heading to her room.
"Evacuation! Escape craft in your room!"

"Pavane, get your stuff! This ship is going down! No time to get dressed!"

Wet floor + bad luck. You know how this works.

'Pavane! Get back in the room and get your things together! The ship is going down!'

>'I heard the PA! But I didn't know where you went and I was worried!'

Another loud CRACK! sounds out! Shortly after, the ship suddenly lurches over to one side and an explosion can be heard, blowing the door off of a nearby room and causing smoke to billow out. You manage to keep your footing, but Pavane tumbles down the slick, angled floor toward the door!

>>351283
FOLLOW HER! SHE IS SLIDING TO THE ONLY SAFE PLACE IN THE AREA!

SAVE DE GIRL!

You've got to dive to rescue her! Pin her up against the far wall with your body so that she doesn't slide out the breach!

You should probably go help her or something.

With his luck, he'd just slide out the door.

You dive to catch Pavane, dropping your bag as you jump. You catch hold of her hand just as the both of you careen through the recently exploded door.

It looks like something exploded and took out a large portion of this chunk of the ship. Much of what remains of this room is smoldering, but below you the side of the ship seems to be ripped open directly to the ominous black clouds. Apparently the turtle has been ascending more quickly than you thought.

>'Oh gosh! What are we going to do?'

hopefully the ship will keep rolling, just hold on a bit.

DON'T. LET. GO.

Think you could swing her over to a solid platform?

How are you holding on when you only have hooves?

>>351859
What? You've never seen hands before?!?

Activate adrenaline mode. Swing her up to the floor above you and then fall dramatically into the abyss.

Get Pavane to grab your legs instead of your hand. Then you can hold onto the doorframe with both hands while she uses you to climb up.

Try with all your might to pull her up and defy fate!

Between pulling her up and having her use you as a stepping stone, you manage to get Pavane back up through the door.

'Now hurry into your room!'

>'But what about you?'

'I'll be up in a bit, hurry and get out!'

>'But I-'

'You promised, Pavane! Hurry!'

'Yeah sure, I promise. Just go already!'

She climbs up into the door to her room.

Pulling her up was pretty tiring. You're sure you can keep hanging on, but if you try to hoist yourself up past the edge you might lose your grip and fall.

So, what, you'd rather wait and hope someone comes along to pull you up?

Just remember. Don't look down
Don't look down.
Don't look down
Look Down

People can't hang on to a ledge for more than a few minutes. Call for help or something, or maybe just pull yourself up.

Don't be a little bitch! LOOK DOWN AND SPIT INTO THE FIRE BECAUSE FUCK YOU. Then climb the hell up goddamnit.

>>352599
Your luck doesn't work that way. The only person who could have saved you just sent away. You're going to have to hoist yourself up yourself.

>>352599
Why did you send her away before she helped you up?
What possessed you to think that was a good idea?

You, sir, are an idiot.

You better haul your own ass up, because if you fail here Pavane is going to sit in the escape craft waiting for you until she dies or comes back to get you. She is not going to give up on you.

>>352611
Oh, wait, I should probably explain something here.

See that wall next to you? Normally called the floor? You can push against that with your legs to get quite a bit more leverage. Since your legs aren't tired at all you can basically walk your lower half up the floor and then pitch yourself over the doorframe.

>>352631
Scramble into her room quick quick!

>>352631
Oh, good! It looks like the ship is tilting back!
Hurry up and join Pavane in her escape craft!

Ok, we just went from punching the turtle's designer in the face to horrible prolonged death or terrible permanent injury.
If you were a second faster you'd have been cut in half. That's how incompetent this guy is.

Go search for another escape pod. There have to be some un-launched pods on this deck. Right?

Oh, who am I kidding. Head to the bridge. They'll either be gone or have an escape pod you can use. If they're gone then try to fuck everything up as much as possible so you can either call fate's bluff or die in the most spectacular way possible.

Your luck has never gotten you killed, you realize that right? It doesn't allow you to because that would be too easy. If you jump after her you might end up in the shuttle... and with a concussion.

I stand by my terrible idea.

Yes, Galliard, jump! Trust to your bad luck to not let you off that easy! Go!!!

You really don't feel like jumping out of the ship. With as bad as your luck is, you figure it's probably not a very good idea to tempt fate by doing things that are deliberately suicidal.

You rush back down the hall, but can't find any unlaunched pods. Unable to find any, you decide to head to the cabin. Even if the escape pods are gone, you can probably still use the console for something.

Quickly scrounge up whatever supplies you can find in the escape pod, then head to the bridge. Since you can't get off the ship you're probably best off trying to get it under control.

No manual controls that might still work? If so no point staying here. Check the side rooms for something like a parachute.

That's the part you're hoping to avoid.

And, you know, the whole 'dying' thing. The moment you take it for granted is the moment it'll bite you in the ass. Just like everything else.

It looks like there is an escape pod still here on the left! It seems like there's something wrong with the door, but peeking through it looks like everything is fine inside. The pilots probably both took the other pod when this one malfunctioned, since the one across the room has launched already.

>>406311

You are currently ON the bridge, and judging by the state of the console there's not going to be much controlling going on at all.

You can't find a refrigerator big enough to hide in. There is probably a storage box with some supplies in the unlaunched escape pod, that's as close as it gets.

You feel a bit light on your feet, and your stomach feels like it is rising up into your chest.

back up and ram it with your horn. things unbreakable right?
