I thought I was a newbie, but Noooo!

I don’t know, I find the frequency of these abominations somewhat disturbing. Is it something in the water?
And to think that when Yes sang “There’ll be no mutant enemy, we shall certify,” I foolishly believed them…

Abominations? Who said anything about abominations? When I joined, all I heard about was goats and the occasional squid.

Let’s vote. Go on the expedition, or take our trail mix and go watch some videos?

Polls close at midnight, get your vote(s) in now. :smiley:

I vote for expedition, darling! Who knows what kind of mutant enemies and horrifying monsters we’ll meet?

Just as soon as we get rid of this one…

slams door shut, yanks everyone inside as a loud, enraged GRONK is heard and the entire building shudders

Wipes brow with sleeve Thanks Kytheria, that was close!

Ya know, trail mix was mentioned, but did anybody bring water? cough, cough, hack

Well, there’s… um… the bin that Mariah was in… I suppose…

Squid water? Ummm, no. I don’t think I could handle water that been around initiation animals.

Evian anybody?

Well, I thought there was water in the room through that glowing doorway over there, but I wouldn’t recommend going into it. Bad juju.

Well, I vote that we kill that GRONK-ing thing, and drink it’s blood. Why’s everybody looking at me like that? It’s a viable option! Like sarge said, “I only dirnk the blood of my enemies!”

Regallag , was that Sarge’s name **Dracula ** by any chance? I guess we could use some iron in our diet, but I don’t know how thirst quenching it would be.

(sorry it took me so long to reply, but work and sleep interfered. I worked till 1 am and just got up!)

:: Sunspace goes over to the mountain door, and cautiously opens it. ::

:: Beyond is nothing but another dank concrete room. ::

Um… people? I think you should have a look at this.

:: A closer look reveals that the roots growing through the mountain door have been neatly sheared off… parallel to the door’s surface. ::

Something odd is going on here.

comes up behind Sunspace, peers into room What do you see? I can’t see a thing…

hears a SQUELCH

:eek:

:: Kythereia and Sunspace back up hurriedly. The squelching noice is coming from the Squid Sorage Room… where the Monster Bread had gone to meet its destiny in the Squid Storage Pool. ::

I’m… not really sure I want to know what’s going on in there…

Me either, but this could be dangerous to the newb…

another wet SQUELCH and a slop-slop-slop noise

:: They go cautiously up the stairs. In the main room the sounds are much louder. Water is leaking past the damaged and half-open doors of the Squid Storage Room. ::

:: Mariah is shuttling back and forth in her tank, her tentacles writhing. ::

Mariah! Speak to us, honey! Are you all right? What–

SQUELCH

Aw, shit. That doesn’t sound good…

To arms! Daithi, get your Vorpal Blade ready! Sunspace

a resounding SQUELCH as–it–crashes into the room

Sac-ree-mento, California! Just look at that thing! I don’t know if my +3’s going to be able to do much…

Shoot, where’s a flame-thrower when you need it…

A flame-thrower…?

Rue! Where’s Rue?
