Session Start: Mon Sep 10 15:45:10 2007 Session Ident: #VCB [19:05:18] * It's getting to be afternoon-ish, no longer the bright, early morn it was when arriving upon the island. [19:05:57] * The day so far has been interesting, but ultimately uneventful... [19:07:14] * ... but then again, half of history happens after lunch. In this particular case, a lunch that would make a french gourment chef cry in envy. [19:08:38] * As they emerge from the resteraunt, they're set for the moment. What are they up to next? [19:08:56] (Restraunt) [19:09:40] * Start. 01[19:09:41] That was... interesting. 01[19:10:03] I was surprised to see there was a lot to do there aside from eat. 06[19:10:39] * Navi giggles. "Yup! I wonder if Noah's up for 'more action'." *whistles* [19:11:07] Of course! Daylight's burning, and we've only got so much of it here! Your girls' turn to make a suggestion, though. 01[19:12:08] Hmm... 01[19:12:28] We've played that simulation... gone to a restaurant, had skydiving lessons... 03[19:12:45] * HeWhoHuntsCats (HeWhoHunts@68-118-61-214.dhcp.csby.or.charter.com) has joined #VCB 03[19:12:45] * ChanServ sets mode: +o HeWhoHuntsCats [19:12:57] "A little early to teach Noah in the way of pornography, though." 03[19:12:58] * HeWhoHuntsCats is now known as NPC1 06[19:13:32] * Noah quirks an eyebrow at Navi, then chuckles. "Perhaps." 01[19:13:43] Really? I hadn't really thought about it. 06[19:15:03] * Noah clears his throat, pretending he's not a little flushed by that line of conversation. "Any -other- suggestions?" [19:16:37] "From what I know you humans, americans in particular, are s- I dunno. " 01[19:17:11] You seem uncomfortable. [19:21:23] Nah. But we shouldn't waste time. Let's see... Well, if you can't decide, we'll walk this way, and see what catches our eye! 06[19:21:26] * Noah starts walking! 06[19:25:55] * Navi follows along with Noah. 06[19:26:42] * Tetsuko walks alpong 06[19:27:22] * Noah stops, almost stumbling for a moment, then takes a step back. "Wah!" 06[19:27:50] * Noah holds his hands up defensively. Then blinks, and shakes his head. "Uh..." blink, blink. [19:28:00] Huh? What's wrong? 06[19:29:14] * Tetsuko blinks. 01[19:29:22] "Noah, are you well? Do you require aid?' [19:30:45] Um, ... did you just-- [19:30:53] Did I just what? [19:30:59] No. I guess... something must have been weird in what I ate. 01[19:31:27] What makes you say that? 06[19:31:43] * Noah looks back the way they came. "I thought the world just...broke. And a monster..." He shakes himself, and laughs. "Never mind." 01[19:32:10] If you say so... [19:33:22] * Coming up ahead is the Robot Colliseum. [19:33:53] "Robo colliseum. That sounds promising." [19:34:28] I wonder if they let you customize them... 01[19:34:49] Hm. 06[19:34:58] * Tetsuko looks at her hand. 01[19:35:30] I could replace it with a firearm for greater stability. 01[19:35:46] But hands are useful for manipulating objects. 06[19:36:33] * Navi slaps Tetsuko. "Not you!" [19:36:38] * It sports a quick-build lab that's "As easy as building a lego house," and several competition modes. 01[19:36:55] Not me? [19:37:03] Yeah, we don't want you getting torn apart in there. 01[19:37:17] True. [19:37:24] Maybe you can interface with one, though, to use it. Betcha Navi can, too! ...man, I'll be at a disadvantage. 01[19:37:40] Even if I'm built for military standards, there's always a chance. [19:38:54] Well, if you want to... but you're supposed to be passing for human, right? 01[19:39:17] Hm. This is true. I suppose it'd be best to not draw attention to myself that way [19:39:20] I don'tthink you fit the requirements for battling bots. :D 03[19:40:59] * NPC1 is now known as WomanInBlack 06[19:44:18] * Noah eyes somebody coming out of the place. "...okay, now I know I'm not imagining it." 06[19:44:27] * sbpr emerges from the Robot Coliseum, along with some other people. 06[19:44:32] * WomanInBlack does that 06[19:45:46] * WomanInBlack doesn't need to look around - her gaze locks on the trio. 06[19:46:30] * Noah stops walking. "Alright, can you guys tell what's different about her?" he asks quietly of his companions. 01[19:46:42] No. [19:47:04] Um.... no?" 06[19:47:44] * WomanInBlack is on the short side, with short, gnatty looking black hair, and a beat-up looking black jacket. On her left arm is a wierd-looking wrist brace, that looks metallic and flexy. She walks torwards the trio, seemingly not noticing the other people in the crowd. [19:48:39] * Though, the others don't notice -her-. They're walking through her, and she them, like illusions. 06[19:48:47] * Noah makes sure Navi's hidden, and steps back a bit involuntarilly when the woman invades his personal space. "Um, hello." 06[19:48:58] * Navi invisifies. 06[19:49:54] * WomanInBlack , as she gets closer, has an odd expression on her face. She asks, softly, "Do you still dream?" 06[19:50:13] * WomanInBlack asks it of noone in particular, but it seems to be directed at all of you. [19:51:35] Uh... last I checked? Why're you..."realer"? 06[19:51:46] * WomanInBlack is carrying a pistol underneath the jacket, but the saftey is on, and she's not making any moves to get it. 01[19:52:42] I don't dream. 06[19:55:36] * WomanInBlack frowns, and looks about, like she's trying to figure out how to answer that. 06[19:55:40] * Noah steps so he's between Tetsuko and the Woman in Black, a bit defensively. "What's going on?" [19:56:42] Psst, I really have no clue. [19:56:45] I'm ... not sure? [19:56:51] But ... 06[19:56:55] * WomanInBlack pauses again. 06[19:57:25] * WomanInBlack frowns, and glances about. "They've seen you." [19:57:43] Huh? Who? *looks around* 06[19:59:03] * WomanInBlack shifts to a defensive posture. "I've got to go. Find the truth, and I'll help." [19:59:20] You know, I'm confused as all hell. 01[19:59:26] Um... okay. 06[19:59:44] * WomanInBlack gets that confused look again. "Yes...." Before breaking off into a run. [20:00:14] ...okay, that was weird. Robots? *jerks a thumb at the robot rumble place* 01[20:01:08] Hm.. yeah, if you'd like [20:01:44] Hmmmm. [20:01:54] ...think it's one of the games here...? *does -not- sound convinced* 01[20:02:27] The woman? [20:03:36] Yeah... Let's do the robots; then we need to talk, I think. 01[20:04:28] Understood [20:06:28] I hate riddles, unless I'm the one giving them out. *pout* 06[20:07:09] * Noah nods, and grabs Tetsuko by the arm to lead her in. His grin is a touch forced now, however. 06[20:09:06] * Tetsuko follows [20:10:03] * The Coliseum sports 4 floors, and 3 sub-floors, and there's a live feed on the giant front display of RC-car-esque robot fighting on one side, and full obvious mil-spec robot soldiers facing off against each other, with shouts and screams from the controllers egging their remote-controlled combatants on. 06[20:10:40] * Navi follows by default. [20:11:08] Okay, I wanna play with the builder a bit. You girls want to help, or get 'bots of your own? 01[20:11:18] I think I'll help. [20:11:30] * The first floor is the lobby, with various registrations, information booths, etc. The big toys are downstairs, and the small ones are upstairs. [20:12:35] Alright! 06[20:13:01] * Noah goes for the information, then downstairs to the "big toys" to start building. [20:13:29] Hmmm hmm. [20:14:15] The elevator downstairs doesn't open immediately. Noah's waiting a bit for it. 06[20:14:40] * Noah looks about at this...place. [20:14:48] Why do some things seem so weird? [20:15:02] * The elevator dings, then opens! [20:15:45] Because nothing's ever as it seems. ^^ 01[20:16:10] What do you mean by that? [20:16:55] * Noah can't get on yet, tho - there's a small whooping and cheering group of people who are crowding it, hefting a trophy. [20:17:52] * It's the winning team of the mil-spec robot soldier fight, recongnizable from their breif stint on the entrace display. 06[20:19:08] * Noah steps out of their way, hollaring a congrats after them before stepping on once they're out of the way. [20:19:38] * They clear out, not even noticing him or Tatsuko, in their exultations. [20:20:11] The... well. No. Later. Fun first! ^_^ [20:24:41] * The sign out front isn't quite accurate - it's a good deal more complex that Legos to put together a battle robot, but it gets done within an hour or two. [20:25:38] * Just in time to get in for the later rounds of the Day One fightoffs. [20:27:48] * Where, due to a much more direct interface than shouted commands and button presses, courtesy of Navi, they do exceptionally well, and easily qualify for the Day Two fights, tomorrow. [20:30:25] Shortly after the match, however, there's a bad, whining, sound... 06[20:30:44] * Tetsuko looks around for the osurce of the osund 06[20:30:51] * Noah winces and looks around, as well. [20:31:43] * It's from above, and all around. It's also not alone - there's a dying hum, and suddenly the power cuts out. 01[20:32:11] What? [20:32:24] Uh... that's not cool. [20:32:37] Woah! *puts his hands out, instinctively trying to make sure he doesn't bump into anything* [20:33:03] Wonder what went wrong. Think power'll be out for long? 01[20:33:45] Navi, you see anything? [20:34:04] * There's some clanky sounds, and the lights come back on, flickering a dim, for about three seconds, before dying again - this time for good. [20:34:36] No, all electicity, except for me and you, seem to be shorted out. [20:34:47] ...yeah... no emergency lights, huh? That's gotta be against fire code. 01[20:34:58] Let's get outside... [20:35:27] Um, can you girls navigate in the dark? I, erm... *sounds embarassed* will need you to lead me. 06[20:35:31] * Navi kicks on her blue light and starts guiding torwards the doors. First, to the stairs!" 06[20:35:36] * Tetsuko follows [20:36:00] ...that works! *heads off, suddenly less embarassed. At least he's not being led by the hand. By an attractive robot girl. ...maybe that wouldn't be so bad...* 06[20:37:58] * Navi guides him. Nah, he's only being lead by a naked pixie as his only source of light instead. 06[20:38:45] * Noah is following very...attentively. [20:40:06] * It's too dark to see more than five feet or so around Navi, but it's enough to walk by as long as one follows closely... 06[20:41:01] * Noah does. Though his difficulty in watching his step due to...distraction...means he stumbles a bit. [20:42:55] * The group makes up the stairwell to the lobby level door. ... which, upon trying, is locked. There's the sound of a lot of people on the other side, and somewhat more hostile than the benign crowd that was there before. 01[20:43:41] ... strange... [20:46:24] Not really; they're stuck in the dark, and mad about it. [20:46:38] Tetsuko, you got any lockpicking gear? [20:47:24] I'm going to take a quick look at the other side. 01[20:47:45] No, but if necessary, I might be able to wokr out osmethin.. [20:48:08] Alright; we'll wait for Navi, then decide what to do. We should probably help anyone else we can find, too. 06[20:50:18] * Navi sends a couple sparks of electricity into the power lines, and the cameras come on. [20:51:08] No, no... Well, that's a warm welcome. [20:51:39] Armed guards are at the doors. That's what all the comotion is about. 01[20:51:50] What for? 06[20:51:52] * Tetsuko frowns [20:52:09] ...armed guards? [20:52:17] Don't know, but they're... heavily armed. And don't look happy. Power's out too. [20:52:27] Are they keeping everyone in? [20:55:10] No, they're the only ones here... I think someone's expecting us. [20:55:28] ...what? Us? Why? We've not done anything! 01[20:55:30] How many are there? [20:56:35] ...nothing that warrents cutting power and sending in the army, anyway... [20:57:15] I count five, ten... 24 in body armor and 2 in powered armor. [20:57:27] If needed, I might be able to hack that powered armor and cause disarray. [20:57:41] Can you hack 'em for their mission details? 01[20:58:20] Information is what we really need... [20:58:33] Yeah. [20:59:03] Checking... 06[21:01:50] * Navi sighs. "Rogue bot on the 4th floor cut the power. They're working their way up to stop it. You'd think they'd be smarter about this than that." [21:02:58] So it's safe to knock and ask for help? [21:03:17] ...though you'd probably be able to fix the bot yourself, wouldn't you? 01[21:03:19] ... ah. Whew. [21:03:32] Probably, listen this. 06[21:03:55] * Navi starts speaking as if straight from the radio transmission. [21:07:17] * There's various radio chatter about positions, a lot of all-clears. They're up to the third floor, reiteration of the mission. 06[21:09:19] * Navi cuts it off. "I'm going to check on this bot. If it looks particularly nasty I'll shut it down." [21:09:25] * The radio chatter cuts off suddenly from the upper forces; there's no response to the various challenges and seeing if they're responding. [21:09:40] Alright. Want us to wait here, or should we try to get out while you're doing that? [21:13:32] If you want to try and get out, you can. I'll be here. 06[21:14:00] * Navi slides down inside of Noah's shirt pocket, if he's got one. 01[21:14:05] You can get back to us real easy, right? [21:14:40] I'm not physically going there. Hello, wireless. 06[21:14:58] * Noah does on this shirt, actually. Tried for "very casual business". "Alright. Then go invis., I'll knock for attention." 06[21:15:13] * Navi goes invis. 01[21:15:19] Oh, right 06[21:15:22] * Noah knocks on the door, loudly. "Hello!?" he raises his voice, hoping to be heard. [21:17:12] * There's motion, as you hear several people head torwards your door. 06[21:17:31] * Noah knocks again. "Over here!" [21:19:55] * The door is kicked open, and Noah and Tatsuko have several guns pointed at each of them. [21:20:13] (Tetsuko, even) 06[21:20:58] * Noah steps back as the door almost hits him in the face, and hastilly puts his hands up at the sounds of guns being leveled. "Hey! hey! Ow!" He tries to shield his eyes from the lights they're undoubtably levelling at his face, too. 06[21:21:37] * Noah instinctively moves in front of Tetsuko, too. [21:22:15] * There's enough ambient light from the front lobby doors to the outside, that it's merely dark, not pitch-black. 06[21:23:01] * Noah lets his eyes adjust, and looks nervously at the armed men, not quite sure what to say. [21:23:26] * "How did you get past the lockdown?" [21:23:49] Lockdown? We were downstairs, doing one of the matches, when it all went dark! [21:24:05] Feeling our way up here wasn't fun, lemme tell you. [21:24:19] ...well, okay, it kinda was. But not something I really want to do again. [21:24:23] * "The stairs are sealed on each floor. [21:24:33] * "The stairs are sealed on each floor. Try again." [21:24:46] ...this was the first locked door we came to. 01[21:25:03] That is what I witnessed as well. [21:25:27] And I heard people, so I knocked, 'cause maybe you could unlock it... 01[21:25:28] Did the stairs on each floor actually seal, or was that only waht was supposed to happen? [21:26:59] * Now that he mentions it, with the light relatively pouring in, you can see a thick fall-down barrier at the turn behind you, blocking any access up or down... 06[21:27:31] * Noah turns back to gesture at the open space behind him, and pauses, mouth agape. "...what the...?" [21:27:33] * One of the guards shines a flashlight on said barrier. "Look for yourself." 01[21:27:40] ... strange. 06[21:27:58] * Tetsuko walks back to the barrier and gives it a good push. [21:28:01] When'd that get there? ...maybe we came up another way? *heads back towards it, feeling along the wall for any access down he might have come up* [21:28:02] * "You two can stay in here until this is handled." [21:28:13] ...uh...sure. [21:29:15] * The barrier is quite solid; it'd take a lot of strength to move it. Tetsuko could do it, maybe. [21:29:45] * And the door gets shut and locked again, sealing Tetsuko, Noah, and Navi back in the suddenly more enlcosed stairway. 06[21:29:55] * Noah whispers to Tetsuko over by the barrier. "What's going -on-?" 01[21:30:04] I don't know... 06[21:30:08] * Navi hmphs as the man turns away. When the guards are done looking at them, she starts talking. "Well if they're that way, we might as well let him get killed by that rampaging monster upstairs." 01[21:30:36] When exactly did that barrier go down? 01[21:32:05] How do we get up there? [21:32:53] ...we can't let them get killed; they're just doing their job. 01[21:33:25] Yeah... [21:33:26] I wonder if this is related to that woman, and the walls, and the world shattering and that guy in the mask... [21:33:35] How do you suppose we get up there then, einstein? 01[21:33:35] Guy in the mask? World shattering? [21:33:59] ...I thought you could make it stop from down here? [21:34:27] And yeah, I'll tell you about it; things're way too weird for it just to be me. [21:34:48] * There's more motion from the lobby, as forces move around. 06[21:35:05] * Tetsuko frowns. "Can we do something without damaging the door? 06[21:35:47] * Navi shakes her head. "No dice. I could get a feed on the cameras up there, but it drained the power from them. It's a 'bot hooked into the power grid via an umbilical chord and it's on a rampage. A number of guards are aleady dead or dying from bullet wounds. I think it might have a rogue AI." [21:36:02] ...rogue AI? [21:36:10] I met some resistance getting a feed there. 06[21:36:16] * Noah looks from Tetsuko to Navi. 06[21:36:41] * Tetsuko shifts a bit. Seems to have struck a nerve. Or nerve-equivalent. 01[21:37:06] Is it connected to a network? 06[21:37:11] * Noah instinctively reaches out to pat Tetsuko's hand. [21:38:17] It's hooked up to... I'd guess the power grid and network. [21:38:26] Hence why the power's out. [21:38:44] Haven't they cut power to the building yet? That should deny it its umbillicle... 06[21:38:45] * Tetsuko takes the hand, but it's ulimately a human gesture, one that doesn't resonate with her as well sa a flesh and blood person would be. She seems to understand that he means well, though. [21:40:00] Good point, let me try that. 01[21:42:17] Any idea how it went rogue? Not anything infectious, is it? 06[21:42:35] * Navi phases for a moment as she sends a part of her conciousness to check the power grid. [21:43:43] Already busted up the breakers and fuses in this place. [21:44:09] * There's an explosion that can be heard even down there in the next-to-the-lobby, from Above. [21:44:12] It's not getting anymore power unless it breaks out of here. Which means I probably shouldn't power any of the cameras anymore. 01[21:44:30] Any idea how we can get up there? [21:45:13] ...and any chance the bots downstairs have power cells to run on, if we could get them up to help? [21:47:01] That should be easy enough. If my guess is right, that was one of the generators for the power suits. [21:48:02] How the hell are we going to deal with that? It's not laser tag or anything, it's got *real* weapons and is literally killing anybody that comes up there. 01[21:48:51] I'm a military machine... [21:48:58] That's why I want to send up a 'bot. Or several, if we can, but I don't think I have the skill to control more than one. Bigger question is, how do we get back down and then back up? How -did- we get up? [21:49:19] ...do you think you can handle it? I don't want you to get hurt... And you shouldn't go without backup, anyway. 01[21:49:49] I store backups every evening. [21:50:30] You know how a bullet wound hurts? Now imagine if a bullet was the size of your chest. That's how much it'd hurt if I got hit. I really don't want to go up there without a plan against that. [21:50:37] Huh? *chuckles* Not what I meant. Military backup. Like a partner. Or... *eyes the big sealed doorway blocking the way back down to the other fighting machines* 01[21:50:52] The robot we biult did do pretty well.. [21:52:05] What if we stayed down a floor from it? If we can get any sort of visual, I can use the robot. That way, we're in no danger. Unless you really think you can fight it, Tetsuko. [21:52:39] If I can manage to touch it, I can probably land a logic bomb on it and disrupt its programming. [21:52:57] Can you hide in electronics? [21:52:58] Or maybe I can just override its programming. 06[21:53:12] * Navi nods. 01[21:53:20] So it's settled. Noah will use a robot to fight. I'll fight too. While it's distracted, Navi can try to do whatever it can. 01[21:53:23] ( she ) [21:53:30] So you hide in our 'bot, and I just have to land a hit with it. [21:53:36] Now, to get our robot up here... 01[21:54:25] Or hide in me. 06[21:55:03] * Noah eyes that heavy blast door, then closes his eyes, and takes a deep breath, concentrating. Focussing on how the walls around the city make everything else look, and on just being...real. And then he sticks out his hands to the railing for balance, and walks towards that blast door. 01[21:55:57] What are you doing? I cna probably open it [21:56:04] * Noah doesn't dent it, becuase it's harder than him. He doesn't get much farther than that. 06[21:56:11] * Navi takes a deep breath. "Well, in any case, this is going to be risky." She flits over to Tetsuko and lands on her head. "Yeah, she probably could." 06[21:56:19] * Tetsuko goes to give it a try [21:57:01] ...rats. *opening his eyes* So much for that. I guess it was too much of a comic-book explanation. Give it a try, my robotic female companion! *said with a more-than-slight tone of irony* 06[21:57:47] * Tetsuko gives it a try 06[21:59:36] * Tetsuko doesn't get it at first, then repositions herself and tries again [22:00:53] * The barrier goes falling down the stairs, lodging itself about halfway down the next flight of stairs, jammed in an awkward angle that while blocks the majority of it, does allow people to crawl or squeeze by. 01[22:01:46] We'll probably have to pay for that... 06[22:01:51] * Noah winces. "...I'll bet they heard that. Let's go!" He hops on the railing, sliding down and using the support pole to swing around and keep sliding to the next level. 06[22:01:58] * Tetsuko gets moving 06[22:02:30] * Tetsuko glances at Navi briefly, and nods. 06[22:02:55] * Navi flits upwards along with the rest of the crew. [22:03:09] * It's still very, very dark, though with Navi leading them, they make it to the next barrier, one level down. 06[22:03:22] * Noah slows down a bit once Navi's all the light he has to see by. "Alright, let's get to our 'bot's controller..." He's grinning in spite of himself. [22:03:31] Darn it! How many of these did we mysteriously bypass? 01[22:04:46] Shall I? [22:06:15] ...yeah. Unless you think we can throw together a small army of slaved mini-bots to use as distractions...? [22:07:02] I'm not as good at starcraft as I am at phantom crash, but if we can do taht... 06[22:07:12] * Tetsuko works on pushing the barrier back where it was supposed to go [22:07:28] ...erm, we still need to get back up. [22:08:00] So don't put it back yet... 01[22:08:24] ... hm? Oh. Rihgt. Sorry. I tend to try to clean up after myself. Programming. [22:08:56] That's alright. What do you think, can we get several bots built fast enough, or just grab what we can from two levels down? 01[22:09:48] Lives are on the line. And all we need to do is touch it. [22:11:01] Right. Our bot. Next door, please! *points at the barrier* 06[22:11:19] * Tetsuko works on it 06[22:11:34] * Noah helps! For what little good his human strength can do. [22:13:44] * There's a muted shockwave, as everything vibrates a little. Seems like it came from Above. [22:14:12] The other suit. [22:15:41] ...think he got it? 06[22:16:06] * Tetsuko works HARDER 06[22:16:14] * Noah grunts, putting just that much more effort into the door. [22:16:58] * This barrier falls cleaner, and flatter. Instead of an obtrusive block, it falls mostly flat, leaving the bulk of the passageway open. 06[22:17:28] * Tetsuko get smoving 06[22:18:00] * Noah spends a moment catching his balance and breath, then follows. "One *huff* more!" 06[22:20:49] * Tetsuko shoves it. 06[22:20:54] * Tetsuko moves. [22:21:49] * Fairly soon, you're at the barrier blocking you from sub-floor 3, the Arena floor where all the ready and able bots are prepped to go at it. 06[22:22:12] * Tetsuko works on getting the barrier out of the way, one way or another 06[22:23:35] * Noah helps, though probably only psychologically. That is, for Tetsuko, not at all. 06[22:23:47] * Tetsuko shoves it with minimal damage this time. [22:25:23] * As the last barrier blocking them from their goal, sub-floor 3, falls, the wan light Navi puts out reveals it pretty much as they left it - dark, with robots strewn about, and .... quiet? The other people who were down there must have found a way out, as they're not there on your return trip. [22:25:42] I hope everyone got out alright. [22:25:44] * There's bots a plenty, including the one you dominated with in the matches less than an hour ago. 06[22:26:35] * Noah clears his throat. "Okay! Lemme grab the remote for ours, and I'll grab any others that're convenient. They'll be good distractions, at least." He runs in, tripping over a couple things in the dark and banging his shins at least once, but does manage to get to the remotes. [22:29:22] Make sure you get them here quickly, we don't have much time. [22:30:19] Working on it; it's hard to get multiple 'bots moving at once, but I think we need the numbers! [22:31:31] How about I just make a single controller. [22:32:22] ...can you do that? [22:32:25] * It's too dark, and the various robots are too spread out, to get all the robots in a general direction torwards the stairs up. [22:32:56] 'cause, um, I am having a devil of a time with these. [22:32:57] * Noah ends up just banging half of them into walls, or each other, the ones he can see, at least. [22:33:40] ...right. I think I should try with fewer. Think four's enough? 01[22:34:06] Stick with whatever you're comfortable with. [22:34:49] I'll see what I can do with Navi's universal remote. 06[22:34:50] * Tetsuko seems to be gearing up for this. A very faint glow can be seen behind her irises as she prepares to push her systems to their limits 06[22:36:54] * Navi starts scrapping pieces from the remotes, in particular the transmitters, and hooking them up to a singular, slightly larger, remote. [22:42:30] * Now that Noah only needs 2 hands, instead of 8, he's got a much easier time leading his impromptu army to the stairs. With Navi lighting the way, the group, plus automotans, make their way back up... [22:42:34] * End. Session Close: Mon Sep 10 22:46:02 2007
