[Game Thread] Wherein Everything Goes Kablooey

[Fragmaster01]

 

Well, nothing closer than the panel you came out of. Sure, more shooting in the air, but unless you want to dig a hole through the floor in your house... and who knows how long that would take.

 

You knock the vent mostly loose with your kick, and a quick yank takes off the last bolt.

Man... And that crimp in the vent was so hard to get through too. He has no clue how he will make it through there again. But, here goes. Skittering as low as possible to the vent, he peers into it to assure that nothing nasty is in there before he commits himself to ambling back to where he came.

Klikam smiles as best an Alakim can and chuckles a bit. I like your style. We're going to get along just fine. Well the only way out is through. as Klikam follows.

[Fragmaster01]

 

No bullets coming at your general direction this time. That's a start. Also, doesn't look like anything skittering around down there. Good stuff.

 

Well, you got through the vent, though the passageway here is still missing a floor. Leads down into a deeper part of the vents, though they don't bother to actually light down there. Then again, less likely to run into whatever is causing the ruckus up there.

Skitter skitter. Going through the vents at a slower pace, Sennesel feels his way along the metal panels for weak points or ways that he might get spaced for little cohesive reason.

Sunshine wiggles rightwardsly.

[Fragmaster01]

 

Into the vents you go, making sure it's not going to fall apart on you. That would totally ruin the fun of fleeing for your life. In attempting to go a different way from the squished passage, you find yourself wandering into a vent with a broken floor. Turns out there's two levels of vents to this place, who knew? No lights down there, but your brain is already pondering the difference between dark and very cozy in terms of getting out of here.

 

You wiggle through the strange underfloor place. Kinda krinkly, lots of bent metal here and there. Still, you know it's a cool place to be, because they've styled it just for you. Look! A ramp heading down to the lower levels of the underfloor. None of those icky 'stairs' they love so much.
Okay, so the ramp's more of a broken and warped floor, but it's the thought that counts, right? Woulda been nice if they thought to put lights down there, but it's just part of the adventure!

[MCP]

 

Skittering is where it's at, wiggling is overrated. But. He takes something that isn't valuable from his pack and drops it down through the broken floor to see how far down the next level is.

[Caput]

 

Sunshine slides down into the darkness, trying not to hurt it's fleshy body on any sticky out bits. "It went dark."
A flashlight is activated. the shadows are dispelled. Good wins the day?

[hobocommando]

 

Ah hell. Klikam says as he searches his person to see if his flashlight made the fall. Realizing it may not have, the bug begins to sniff around for anything of interest.

OOC That's me activating scent if it didn't make sense.

[Fragmaster01]

 

The clink of your spare coin is rather quick to hit the ground. You'd say 8 to 10 feet? Not a problem if you lower yourself down from this level.

 

The ramp is illuminated, and you can see into the mythical under-underfloor. It goes straight for about 15 wiggles, then hits a T-intersection.
The station wiggles again. It's getting good at that, perhaps it should join a dance troupe.

 

Aha! Klikam's trusty flashlight has survived his strange methods of descending, and now give a happy light. It's about a 9 foot drop to the next level, though if you lower yourself down, it shouldn't be a problem. The path down there runs similar to this one, heading forward for some indeterminate distance, and also back behind you(though you can't see there until you drop down). If only these flashlights had proper range on them.
The station shudders again, though thankfully not centered on where you are.

[Caput]

 

Sunshine wiggles 15 times, turns right and continues to wiggle.

[MCP]

 

Lowering himself down to the next level and maneuvering himself to check the vents he now finds himself in, Sennesel attempts to recall which way would be best to get to the shuttle launch bays.

[The Smarter Pie]

 

Sooner the better. I'll take point, you're hurt enough. Jup lowers himself, using Klik's light as guidance

[Fragmaster01]

 

You lower yourself down to the next level of vents. Dark place, though your light helps. The vent seems to go for a good ways in both directions, farther than your light can hit, though there is a turn left about 30 feet down the path in the direction you came from. Oh dear, you're going to get so lost down here...
Well, there's an odd sight. Some Ormu has come out of that left turn, and is heading towards you, softly muttering "wiggle wiggle wiggle" as he goes, holding a small flashlight to light his way.
Klikam and Jup can now read Sunshine's spoiler posts. Not for long, the party's almost assembled, but still.

 

Hmm, that would be back towards the section you were in, which would be... right. Off you skitter.
Well, it's a pretty straight path, all things considered. You guess that these vents don't need to cover everywhere, just give quick passage from point A to Q. Just the way you like it.
Unfortunately, you seem to have hit a small snag, in a fallen piece of ceiling that's formed an impromptu ramp in front of you. Probably rather heavy to lift, though there is a space to the side you could squeeze through. And your mother thought this was a useless talent.

 

After wiggling right, you see a Terran person 30 feet ahead, holding a flashlight and looking in your general direction. Perhaps he wants to wiggle with you! Or just stare blankly at the strange snake person, you guess he can do that too. Loser.
