next part! You can have your character jump in on the thread whenever, if you come in later just have them be arriving at the orchard when you tag in.
It is a delicate situation, and Ura NPC is not as hearty as the PCs are, so keep that in mind |Db
> Zulf: Have priorities
LMFAO
Nuke it from space, it's the only way to be sure-wait I mean...
I CHOKED ON A CHIP I LAUGHED SO HARD, THANKS ZULF
"you wild child" it's so fucking true im so gald
GOOD
/saw the tag just now L-lol
STAY RIGHT THE FUCK HERE i just. i appreciate zulf so immensely
at least someone does
So Ibuki somehow beat Aoi's donut trees and common sense somehow... how???????
Congrats, these children have exceeded Ghaleon's expectations.
Just not in a good way.
At least Ibuki's not charging in. She's not even going XD;
Yes.
inquiry: how giant is giant. like, how far up off the ground is zee
'giant' being 'about the size of a full-grown bull'
so, standing next to it, its back would probably be just about as high up as most people are tall
iiiiiiii see
Ah.
bulls are big
and this one is made of metal
let's ELECTROCUTE THE BULL god and we're calling AOI ridiculous!!!! pls
Zulf is the only sane person there so far now
Look, it's a perfectly viable option in his world. He can't help it if you people are so delicate that you can't take a single lightning strike.
We're not working on a turned based battle system with HP and KO statuses here Ghaleon!
Please, as if he wouldn't take cutscene power into account.
haha
...And considering that it's magical lightning, there's a decent chance it legitimately wouldn't harm Zee because he wasn't targeted.
Colin is just going to take his time getting his tools, thank you. :|
yes but Vee does not know that
Crona can either save the day or tackle the bull
GUYS WORK FAST
Sob
As soon as I get home I'll tag Crona doing lots of things
i... think crona can actually kill it
right now im just going to have crona try and cut the rope
but basically if crona and ragnarok can flood the bull with black blood, then solidify it, that should kill it
for a given value of "kill"
/cracks up
Yes, good.
it would certainly make it stop moving
yaaay
\o/
\o/
hurray!
That went better than expected! 
so it has a core? o:
i didn't think cores were magic
if they are then i have been playing crona wrong because there's no way that crona would be okay with the bastion being powered by magic
well there's one way to find out
oh gosh
I've played Bastion but I honestly don't know either whether the core/monument are magic at all or not XD;
it's been awhile since i played the game
Well, that...
And there's the fact that the Pyth Statue just happened to be possessed by the will of a god a few months back. 
colin what did you do
Colin didn't do nothing! It was during the festival, remember?
When Raile and his bull-buddy had the knock-down drag out in the ring?
it was totally colin's fault
Zulf just thinks y'all need to stop pissing off pyth
ura kids, colin, everyone
pls stop
Well, that's pretty much the OPPOSITE of Colin's plan when he gets there, so... Good Luck, Zulf.
"wow this all went way better than we expected i—oh no" "what" "colin"
other leading cause of zulf's pipe addiction: colin
/snickers!
there are times when zulf almost comes close to genuinely appreciating Colin
details! \o/
and then colin is colin
(also, it's supposed to be running like an overclocked PC, imagine it like that)
(tech things written by a non-tech person)
You laugh. But if the bull is unhappy when Colin gets there, he's going to have words for it.
but on the bright side did you see zia nailing colin in the fucking head with a soccer ball. zulf ought to appreciate that
Zulf does appreciate that, that's why you're one of his favorite children Zia
LMAO
(And if the bull is handled, Colin won't see any reason to aggravate it. He knows better than to throw gas on a fire.)
Hahaha, yes, good
... if given gas, Ibuki will throw it on a fire if convenient.
(I mean that literally)
god dammit ibuki
naw seriously, in island mode if you suggest searching the army base for fuel, she wants to go make a fire with it.
(a campfire. She's not an arsonist)
crona is too op for this quest
Just a bit.
It's not done yet :3c
You will have to wait until 9 to see tho
w-what timezone? XD;
And then Ghaleon just kinda takes Zee and leaves everyone else to fend for themselves. You guys totally got this, and he's got a patient to see to. 
Gayple
says
Est, tho now you have to wait until 10
oh no im gonna be asleep
Gayple
says
And good idea, saving the npc
Gayple
says
Oh sorry D: I am running an errand
there
WELL THEN
mmm whatcha saaayyyy
what a pythy. I mean pity.
... Ryu is suddenly super glad he doesn't have a weakness to anything but cold
Whoof, that sounds painful
I actually researched it, and they probably won't die from it if they are hearty enough|Db
there is a small range of amps where you insta-die. Below that, and it just stings. Above that, and it really hurts but it apparently doesn't kill you?
I do not fully understand it, but apparently it is a thing
Electricity is an odd thing.
it really is
I think it has to do with disrupting the heart.
but I don't know too many of the details, I barely passed intro to electronic circuits
I suppose it does kinda make sense since the nervous system is run on electrical charges.
yep
Electricity is not a very pleasant force to mess around with.
Nope.
/debates bringing Colin in now that he's back home, may wait just a moment or two longer. Doesn't wanna rain on Crona's run, or intrude on the reaction tags.
Colin can jump in when they get back to the Bastion?
there will be a thread for that
Also possible. Though, he's going to want to check the Pythbot. XD Whether it's destroyed or not.
Oh no Crona.
...So Colin, want to jump in now 8U
Yeeeeeeeah, that might be a good idea? XD
aoi has the Healing Hands ability so i can send her on minor medical assistance duty but even with that yeah, probably a good time for a colin
crona needs some help here
SHE'S COMING SHE'S COMING
XD you wanna have Aoi rush in first, or you want Colin to leap in to distract bull boy first?
well thankfully the bull is down and in pieces
i am halfway through an aoi tag already so if i could just have ooone minute to throw that in that'd be rad
the bull in pieces? The way I read it, it's badly damaged, but still intact.
ragnarok jammed all the gears and things, but i guess it's time for word of mod
since ragnarok's a puddle right now
/nodnods.
Yeah, from what I remember of Bastion, there weren't many external moving pieces on a bull... so lots of room for internal damage, but not so much possibility of it falling apart.
... Until it goes boom. Which would be bad next to the wounded.
Ryu can heal a little in hybrid form...
/pets Ryu and Aoi. Get Crona up you two.
OK THERE'S AOI she can go deal with ryu too once she isn't busy being totally sure crona is about to fuckin perish
I'm on a phone. 8(
Good job guys. The moment Ghaleon leaves to take care of one injured person, now there are more.
There.
This is what you get, Ghaleon. You should have known.
yeah ghaleon idk what you expected, honestly
/hanging back from a tag until he knows where Colin needs to body slam several tons of metal away from the wounded, or just run in to help with the wounded.
Apparently he expected things not to go horribly wrong immediately.
Ghaleon.
Say it with me.
NEVER SPLIT THE PARTY.
CLERICS IN THE BACK, GHALEON, COME ON
But the party already was split
It was.
It's always split
XD;
The party never stays together on these missions.
he has chosen the wrong group to be optimistic with.
... I am severely tempted to out Moon as a shifter by sudden arrival-
Moon and Colin are the cavalry? XD
/approves of this
XD
Moon could carry one other person, shifted, but IDK how heavy Colin is
Yes, this is a good idea
Colin's light... but neither would he need to be carried. XD Colin's deceptively fast. ... Plus, he plans to show off what high gravity workouts are good for.
XD Okay then Moon will just fly as fast as he can which is fast, because consorts
yes hi I am here
NGL, I'm also curious how to get all of Ragnarok back into Crona. XD I have this mental image of them having to call Alucard to suck up Ragnarok and reguritate him into Crona.
yeah Crona fried the bull, it's not getting up anymore. But exploding is a thing that could still happen
Even better.
Wanna have Moon get there first, RadiantWingedOne? I'm getting ready to do my end-of-day errands.
mm'k
also added one last bit too
so incoming people, choices to be made
(and people already there obviously)
... oh rude
:3
/cackles!!
I can't wait to have Colin tag this one. :3 Engineer genius is gonna talk to the gods.
someone would have to suggest to aoi "hey, maybe we should get the fuck out of here" tbh because she is very one track minded and very very focused on "NO DYING!!! PLEASE DON'T DIE CRONA, NO DYING ALLOWED"
.... there are too many people for moon to move. so he might do that
Very smart, Moon.
XD
aoi is totally capable of scooping someone up and carrying them the fuck outta there princess-style if necessary btw, she's an ATHLETE, she's TOUGH 
XD she can take Crona from Moon if she wants-
he figures GET MOVING NOW, we can sort out people later-
NAH THAT'S GOOD as long as crona's outta there ouob
/thumbs up
jchaos: asdfjkl; I think that is the one instance Alucard would actually take some convincing to eat something. XD;
Pls don't eat Ragnarok
He'd rather not eat Ragnarok. He doesn't know what Ragnarok is made of.
/cackles
Pls don't eat Ragnarok
/cracks his knuckles.
Okay Colin... let's work our magic.
everyone set now? I've been waiting to toss in Zulf but it's been sorta crazy ha ha
go for it
also, lol Colin praying
Not only praying, asking Zulf to HELP.
I'm probably going overboard with prayer bullshit
but
y'all
I don't think you understand how much I adore fucking Pantheon bullshit
I approve mightily. I DIG pantheon bullshit.
And Colin isn't as anti-religious as he comes off. He just prefers everyone keeps from screwing everyone else over.
DISREGARD THAT I ACTUALLY READ THINGS 8'|
THERE enjoy all my prayer spam
Colin he's only saying nice things about you because he still doesn't know/has forgotten that you know Ura 8U
enjoy that
(I have a headache so I can't remember which it is whee)
SORRY I had choir practice today.
He hasn't revealed it. ^_^
perfect
Colin will mock the gods to Hell and back if he has to... but if you break something belonging to a god, he will be PISSED.
And, y'know... not wanting to fall victim to godly wrath. XD
amazing
Enjoy that parting help, Colin.
godDAMN it ryu aoi is TRYING to get you out of there!!!
XD Colin appreciates the help, Ryu.
HE'S TRYING TO HELP
He's also going to bop you on the head when everything is said and done, if he lives.
HE'S TRYING TO HELP
And Colin appreciates it. He just wants you to be safe.
sldkfsd plurk y u send twice
also yeah
don't die colin :<
(az would cry)
(so would ryu)
also he's... had worse... i think...
he's not endgame tough but still!
Ibuki would cry too
Don't worry.
You don't want Ibuki to cry do you
As he always does...
Colin is cheating hard.
XD
cheating death with colin starfury, phd
Cheating EVERYTHING with Colin Starfury: A correspondence course.
/wanders off to take a quick nap before dinner, will be back later.
pretty much
And there you go!
yaaaaay
no one's dead
(yet)
aw yeah we are victorious
well
a few of them need medical attention
1 concussion, 2 electrocutions, 1 severe blood loss
crona is a mess. oops
crona's a mess and ragnarok's splattered across the skyway
puddles of ragnarok errywhere
Eh, it's not the end of the world
well that's because it already happened
'EEEYYYYY
eyoooo
does someone have a bottle they can put ragnarok in
how does meister work
absorbhim with a mop
but ryu should be able to recover... pretty quickly. JRPG protag for the win?
get a towel or something?
Bounty Commercial
ilu all
Maybe a vaccuum would work better? :|a
Because while you would get some dirt that way, you also wouldn't miss as much of Ragnarok as with a mop or towel since there are bits of him everywhere.
yo man have you seen that bounty commercial
absorbs way more than the regular brand
important: how tall is moon. aoi has a jacket but also aoi is tiny and as such, so is her jacket
Tall.
specific & helpful, thank you
there.. is no specifics, sadly XD
he meant for crona XD XD
...LMAO
HE IS BUILT FOR FLYING, ITS NOT HIM HE'S WORRIED ABOUT
RIGHT. RIIIIGHT
he can give her a "wait i failed words" look in a moment.
this is why i only play oblivious characters
i could not play anyone smart. look at me
oh help if crona woke up and aoi's jacket was there... crona you useless lesbian
UH, i've been writing him as ~6foot normal, and he gets taller and bigger when he's shifted...
omg... omg...... crona honey
it probably smells like sweat and chlorine don't get too excited
Ryu is like... 5'5" but probably like 5'8" now for reference
he.. might be between seven and eight. he's occasionally "a pace or two" taller than some races, and.. that means not much, because paces aren't a stable measurement even on earth
crona would just like, faceplant into aoi's jacket
oh my god. ohhhh my god crona
sweetie
someone stop this child before they get too attached to someone who's already taken
Oh Crona... /pets
ok but on the note of crona you useless lesbian: they were in aoi's lap for all of like five seconds before moon just took 'em and ran. nobody tell crona they might break in half
XD
Crona would cry
Poor Crona.
XD Colin is going to scrape up Ragnarok too
/pets Crona
