- 1:32initiative. My dad's only initiative was out
- 1:35to go get milk and cigarettes and I've still yet to see him
- 1:37come back. VV.
- 1:42Yeah. What's going on with VV during
- 1:46this initiative? VV goes into her bag after

- 2:21I can't believe some of these scabber rolls.
- 2:24One of them crit, one of them crit, the other one crit faith.
- 2:30I just gave myself a critical head intrigue.
- 2:31Did anything happen? Don't do that, because it will.
- 2:34Oh, whoops. Oopsies.
- 2:37It'll it'll give you it'll like calculate that.
- 2:40It doesn't show up on my. I know I'm going to fix it.
- 2:42Hold on. Thing you don't have any
- 2:44critical injuries yet? OK.
- 2:47I suppose I should give myself I don't have any addictions, never
- 2:50mind. You're addicted to flesh.
- 2:54Yeah, I but I'm not though. But I'm not though, so yeah,
- 2:59it's. Not I can.
- 3:00Stop anytime I want. I don't know if that's true.
- 3:05You know what I'm not. I'm not one to judge.
- 3:07Jeb, it's it's all right to to have addiction.
- 3:11It's that we all face our own challenges.
- 3:15Like I'm addicted to hardcore drugs.
- 3:17I'm just saying, I'm just saying it ain't a problem for me.
- 3:20Any problem. I, I, I lots of times.
- 3:23Actually just just a while back, last episode I so there was some
- 3:27blood and I didn't partake. I also did not.
- 3:32And I'm. Very proud to say.
- 3:34Retro is going to record that whole thing.
- 3:37I have this next time you guys try to pull another intervention
- 3:41on me again. Well, I I won't.
- 3:44You might need an intervention, but I won't is what I'm saying.
- 3:47Why are you special? Yes.
- 3:49Why ain't special? I just overcame my addiction.
- 3:52And I overcame mine. It took years of fortitude and
- 3:56you know, I, I, I, I weaned myself off.
- 3:59It was a, it was tough. I'm not going to lie to you.
- 4:02It was difficult, but it took about a season and 1/2 of a
- 4:06podcast. But I essentially I, I did it.
- 4:11I'm better now. I'm better now.
- 4:17Is that what are we mocking Jeff?
- 4:18I'm better now. We are.
- 4:21It's pretty fun, actually. Right.
- 4:24It lightens. It lightens the mood.
- 4:26Oh, it looks like you're first in an initiative.
- 4:28I don't know what you're gonna do.
- 4:29Shit. I turn around.
- 4:31I take a couple steps past Vendel here to take a a shot to
- 4:37the What Is that? The Northeast at this scaffold
- 4:41right in the front. What do you say?
- 4:45Auto fire? Oh shit.
- 4:48What do you think? Oh, too low at +4?
- 4:54Well, that ain't bad. Oh, oh, OK.
- 5:00All right. All right, pow, pow, auto fire.
- 5:06Yes you you walk towards the North East and cock your gun
- 5:11switching it to auto fire. You pull the trigger causing
- 5:18times 2 damage and rolling 11. That is very high for you, Iona.
- 5:25It is. It is on. 2D6 auto fire, that's
- 5:27A5 and A6 causing 22 damage. What a first shot, Iona.
- 5:35Well, don't worry, there's another one.
- 5:37Another one. Another one.
- 5:40Another one. Another one.
- 5:44Yep, that's under half health and he rolls critical injury.
- 5:50Did it roll? It did not.
- 5:52Oh yeah, OK, you've blown the bullets fly across skimming a
- 5:57few of them. Skeet, skeet, skeet.
- 6:05Your bullets rips through the air and cascade over his right
- 6:09side, splitting parts of his cyberwear on his right arm, and
- 6:12you watch it kilter to the wrong angle and he screams in pain.
- 6:18You've broken his arm. Yeah.
- 6:21All right there. You any more of that?
- 6:24Anyone? Anyone.
- 6:26Pretty good. Yeah, watch out.
- 6:28Iona's going to skeet. Skeet you.
- 6:29I'm going. To.
- 6:30Skeet. Skeet You what?
- 6:32What does that mean? What does that mean?
- 6:34Retro. Fire Auto.
- 6:37Fire skeet skeet 'cause it goes so fast, it goes skeet skeet.
- 6:41Anyone else want some skeeting? Not at this time, no.
- 6:47All right. OK, you take another shot Iona,
- 6:52this time aiming for the centre mass, doing slightly less damage
- 6:57as it hits his armor, causing 12 damage with those bullets of
- 7:01yours. And while I'm thinking I'm going
- 7:03to turn off auto fire. He falls over the the sofa he
- 7:09was leaning on onto the ground and falls prone.
- 7:16Jeb. What is blue glass smoke?
- 7:20The grenade that Retro threw just before Initiative started
- 7:24is a cloud of the drug blue glass, which is very addictive
- 7:29and not good. What does it do?
- 7:34It makes you see bright lights and hallucinates it.
- 7:39It mainly gives you like AI think it's a penalty blue.
- 7:44Blue glass for the duration of the primary effect.
- 7:47The GM will occasionally tell you when you are flashing out,
- 7:51meaning you are hallucinating swirls of vibrant colors in
- 7:54short, powerful bursts. You lose your ability to do an
- 7:56action on the turn while in this state.
- 7:59OK. And then once you're addicted to
- 8:01it, you have to take it a lot, like every four hours.
- 8:05OK. And then this one was just
- 8:08destroyed. But no, no, this one.
- 8:09Sorry. Broken arm.
- 8:11Yeah. And then we've got this guy who
- 8:14looks different. Am I right?
- 8:16Yes, he does look different. Would you like to observe him?
- 8:18Tell me about him. Yes.
- 8:20All right, role perception or human perception?
- 8:23He's behind the car, I can't really see.
- 8:25You can't really see him now. You rolled A crit fail on
- 8:29perception, and as you raise your hat to look through the
- 8:33rain through the glass of the vehicle, a raindrop falls in
- 8:37your eye and you don't really see anything and it's just
- 8:40incredibly uncomfortable. And you take -1 HP no.
- 8:44Oh, Jeff, don't get in your eye. That's gross.
- 8:46Wow, yeah, man, there's more of a inconvenience, really.
- 8:49There's still fallout in that. OK, so let's see, Jeb sees that
- 8:54this guy just got his arm chewed through by by automatic fire,
- 9:02and he's going to take a step up past Vendel and kind of whip out
- 9:10his two Colt 40 fives. Let's just put this guy down.
- 9:15You point your first gun towards him and you pull the trigger.
- 9:19Nothing fucking happens. It misfires.
- 9:22God damn it. And while you're looking at that
- 9:24gun, frustrated you are not looking, you pull the trigger of
- 9:30the other gun while pointed at him, and without looking, you
- 9:34hit him square for seven damage. A.
- 9:37La Buster Scruggs style. Oh.
- 9:40God. And he is literally, I'm just
- 9:43going to tell you, he's A1 HP. Yeah, he's not doing well, that
- 9:47guy. He.
- 9:48Pulls out a mirror. Let's see if I can get this shot
- 9:51real quick. But you still have a little bit
- 9:55of movement left. Do you want to move still in the
- 9:56rain? If you don't move, you can load
- 10:00your gun with no penalty. But you have to stand right
- 10:03there. I look down at the gun that just
- 10:05misfired. I holster the gun that worked
- 10:08and then start like take out a little thing.
- 10:10I'm like scrubbing at the little, like the rusty bits in
- 10:13between the the cylinder, between the cylinder and the
- 10:17hammer. And Jeb, you're just standing
- 10:19there in the rain, like washing out your gun, trying to keep it
- 10:22right. So in Because It's raining I
- 10:24want you to roll for that, with a regular roll being just for
- 10:28success, a crit fail meaning this gun does not work for
- 10:31another turn, and crit success meaning something else.
- 10:35You know what? Does it rain a lot in the
- 10:37Badlands? Probably not.
- 10:38Not very often, no. I imagine also doesn't, I mean
- 10:42what kind of microclimate are we in?
- 10:45Does it? Does it rain a lot in Night City
- 10:47and not a lot in the Badlands? It rains a lot in this season.
- 10:50It is rainy season but it's also storming a lot in the city
- 10:53because someone destroyed 2 lightning Spires.
- 10:58Mm hmm. Mm hmm.
- 10:59Oh. Who did that?
- 11:00I'm trying to find a good a good thing to roll here.
- 11:02That makes sense. Oh, weapons tech.
- 11:05Yeah, that's great. I'm really bad at it.
- 11:10Oh crip, that's a crip -3 you went negative dude.
- 11:15While trying to clean your gun, you flick it seeing if it works
- 11:19and you shoot yourself in the foot.
- 11:20Take 1D6 damage. Oh.
- 11:22Damn it, it was just not working.
- 11:24The shed we're. Trying to be intimidated.
- 11:29It's, I mean, I don't know, I'm pretty scared.
- 11:31I'd, I'd be like, whoa, what? That guy's fucking crazy.
- 11:34Shot himself in the foot on purpose.
- 11:36Yeah, that's right. It was on purpose.
- 11:40Take one damage. Look at that.
- 11:41I only roll the one. Hell yeah.
- 11:44Your toes are so strong that it just bounces off.
- 11:49You dumb fuck. Says this guy as he walks around
- 11:55bald head. Hey.
- 11:56That's what you look like. I was trying to look for you
- 11:58earlier but you're behind the car.
- 12:00All. Right, left foot.
- 12:05Yeah, that was good. I'll take that.
- 12:07Guys, I swear I'm I can't wait till we're done with them and we
- 12:12don't have to hear anymore if they're cheesy lines.
- 12:16I but that one was pretty good though and it did hurt my
- 12:18feelings a little bit. This coming from the doctor's
- 12:22orders. Check.
- 12:25That one was good. Yes, they.
- 12:28Got like a. Motherfucker, I.
- 12:31Suppose you know. Domino says defending VV and
- 12:39this CHIM who was going to shoot Jeb turns to Domino because I
- 12:45rolled A1 on AD 6 and points his huge fucking Magnum gun which he
- 12:51pulls off his side towards Domino.
- 12:54This huge Magnum gun. He's making a magnum, a magnum
- 13:00opus. Hellbringer this bullet.
- 13:04The only Magnum will ever hold. This bullet rips through the
- 13:09rain and causes ripples in the air.
- 13:12It cascades towards Domino, and Domino looks at you baby, and
- 13:18smiles. Excuse me?
- 13:24And takes the bullet hard he. Just takes it.
- 13:31Takes the bullet. Snicker.
- 13:33Snicker. Domino don't know what bullet,
- 13:34but he's already been in a fight before.
- 13:36Oh no, wait, so. True.
- 13:38No. He.
- 13:39Doesn't take the bullet. Domino has a Sandovisian.
- 13:44Oh right, he's got like matrix level speed.
- 13:48So. Dodge bullets.
- 13:50He. Can dodge bullets and that's
- 13:52meant to give you. All he sees his blonde brunette
- 13:56redhead. That was a matrix joke.
- 14:01It's meant to give you, it's meant to give you +4 to that,
- 14:05not +2. So I'm going to roll it again.
- 14:06I'm. Really glad that someone liked
- 14:10that joke. You.
- 14:13Tickled them. Something wrong?
- 14:14All right. It's it's just because because.
- 14:19You watch Domino try and dodge, and you see him step wrong.
- 14:25His foot slips in the water and a grimace has hit the right of
- 14:30his nose, crinkles up in disgust at himself.
- 14:34Then there's this sound. You hear this piercing noise
- 14:39like static in the air, and there's a flash of green.
- 14:44Domino's Gone disappears completely from where he was
- 14:47standing, reappearing on the other side of the battlefield,
- 14:52right behind the man who just shot him.
- 14:58You missed. Holy shit did you y'all see
- 15:04that? That was.
- 15:05'Cause that was a crit. You said 31 on evasion.
- 15:10Oh my is my work in action. Everybody.
- 15:15PMI have a question. Yes, now domino dodged with the
- 15:20Santa Visian. Yes.
- 15:21Yes. However, on.
- 15:24The RGM. Right behind I'm right behind
- 15:28domino in said path of said bullet.
- 15:30So if they. Dodge.
- 15:32The bullet. Yeah, that's the thing.
- 15:35Retro, you're you. Everyone looks over at Retro and
- 15:37he's tapping himself. There's nothing there.
- 15:41And Domino looks at you Retro, and opens one of his arms and a
- 15:45bullet falls to the ground in the rain.
- 15:51I rolled A crip motherfucker. Oh, that was pretty badass.
- 15:55OK, that just sounds like, oh shit, I think I'm about to take
- 15:59that bullet for Domino. I just think that's badass.
- 16:02Look at that difference. Look at that Crip.
- 16:04That's so cool. Sorry, I mean pure luck.
- 16:08I don't care. I don't care and Domino pushes
- 16:15this maelstrom forward and he skids across the side of the car
- 16:19and turns towards. You fucking asshole.
- 16:24What's your interest in? Yeah, I would like to try
- 16:39something, know if it's possible.
- 16:42If I was to run for the door of this car here, would I be able
- 16:49to help? Would my movement help me
- 16:52potentially knocking Quake over? Yes, you'd have to roll a
- 16:57broiling check, but yes. Not an that's not using my
- 17:00action. That would be within my
- 17:01movement. If you just want to push him
- 17:02away, yeah, causing no damage, yes, absolutely.
- 17:07You can do that. We're running.
- 17:07That's not. I'm hoping to knock him over,
- 17:09but yeah. Yeah.
- 17:10Oh yeah. If you roll well, you're not
- 17:11gonna mow, but but you can. It's wet out here.
- 17:12You can definitely skip him back if you want to.
- 17:15OK. Yeah, I'd like to, I want to, I
- 17:17want to go for the for the car here.
- 17:19Brawling 25. Interesting.
- 17:22Interesting, interesting. He tries to touch and fails.
- 17:35The difference is close enough that you don't cause him to fall
- 17:38over, but you do push him back. You can push him back two
- 17:40squares. Where would you like him to go?
- 17:43That can be diagonal if you want.
- 17:47If it went diagonal he still wouldn't be close enough to hit
- 17:49the blue glass smoke I'm assuming.
- 17:51Probably not, but he would be closer to it.
- 17:55Yeah, I'll, I'll, I'll push him towards the smoke.
- 17:58Push him towards the smoke. Give a better shot for
- 18:01everybody. Narrowly avoids touching the
- 18:04veil of smoke as it starts to dissipate.
- 18:08What are you actually doing with your turn though?
- 18:10Retro after pushing this guy aside.
- 18:13For my turn, I would like to get into the car.
- 18:17Right. I'm assuming that of course the
- 18:19key is not in there. Roll Perception 18.
- 18:22I'm gonna say there's a chance. So you're saying there's a
- 18:27chance? Oh look at that, you have to be
- 18:30a 13 to find a key which is a screwdriver because this car is
- 18:37stolen. I would like to turn the car on.
- 18:42Done. And I want to back it up.
- 18:45OK. Aiming where did it go this way?
- 18:55So hopefully I can get these two goons the same time while
- 18:58running them over with the car. You now have control of that
- 19:01token, so put it what you want. Can't get in there with the
- 19:07token. All right, so you want to
- 19:10breakthrough the window and smash into the front building in
- 19:12front of the building? Yeah, there's these two guys
- 19:14right here. The ones in the street or the
- 19:16ones inside? The ones inside.
- 19:19OK, cool, roll me a driving check.
- 19:21That's where my weakness now comes in.
- 19:25I. Just replied something that's
- 19:28really funny. Yeah, OK, OK, I'm going to say
- 19:36I'm going to say something and this is going to be cool.
- 19:40So you start the car, it Revs badly, the rain smattering
- 19:44across the top, and you call out over the radio to everyone
- 19:48smashing through the glass window.
- 19:50It is now permanently open. Cannot be closed.
- 19:53The scabbers inside managed to avoid you, but I'll push back
- 19:58into the room. However, in the process of
- 19:59moving into this window, you crush the guy who had one HP and
- 20:03he screams in pain and parts of them explode across the ground
- 20:06as he dies. Oh.
- 20:13Shit, shit. Oh shit.
- 20:18And that's your turn. Tokens are fun, everyone.
- 20:22Have fun. Yeah, I was.
- 20:24I didn't even have enough time to think of a good one liner for
- 20:27it. Which is, ironically, a really
- 20:30good one liner. One of the Scabbers who was
- 20:33hanging outside smoking is now looking at his friend's dead.
- 20:38Fuck the guy owed me 20 bucks you prick.
- 20:40No one 's going to say anything. We don't care.
- 20:49Oh. I mean, if you run then you, you
- 20:52know, you got a chance to be able to make $20 or more in the
- 20:56rest of your life. But if you stick around then I
- 20:58think $20 is going to be the least your worries.
- 21:04Jeb Dodger, 27. Oh shit.
- 21:21Journey into the world of Frost Born, The newest arc of Dungeons

- 22:10Oh. Damn y'all see that?
- 22:13Holy shit. Wow.
- 22:19You did it almost as good as Domino.
- 22:23Jeb, you avoided this bullet and there's no one behind you at
- 22:27that angle, so it flies into the wall behind you and ricochets in
- 22:31the rain. What?
- 22:34The fuck up let. Me shoot you again.
- 22:38Another crit. Holy shit, beta 26?
- 22:41Man, that was pretty close to the AH.
- 22:43Damn it, there it is. And this This bullet however
- 22:49only does 9 damage, so your armor is ablated by one, but
- 22:51nothing else happens and it's really scuffed it and now the
- 22:55two sides aren't even. Oh man, that was right on my
- 22:59hat. I can choose I guess.
- 23:01I have. I have a bulletproof cowboy hat
- 23:03and a leather carbon weave duster.
- 23:05No, if he shot you without doing an aim shot it is always body.
- 23:08Oh, OK. Yeah, so your your head armor is
- 23:11separate, but cold shots have to be to the head.
- 23:14It's always that's like rules I was written.
- 23:17Got it. Cool.
- 23:18So like, yeah, it's scuffed one of the lapels.
- 23:21There's like a bullet hole in it now.
- 23:22Oh man, I just got this drag clean.
- 23:27I didn't actually. That's a lie because my this is.
- 23:30This is already pretty fucked. Up.
- 23:32Bendel pushes you aside behind Phoebe.
- 23:35You can't shoot my friends. I've got this, Jeb.
- 23:39I'm cool and fast. I've got a cool leg.
- 23:42Fuck you up. Yes, you are.
- 23:44Vendel is going to skate escape directly towards that scavenger
- 23:51because I thought this one right here, correct?
- 23:53Yes. Yeah, skate directly.
- 23:56Towards them, hop over the couch and kick them in the face with
- 24:01their rollerblade feet. Fuck you.
- 24:04Fuck you. Make him eat that.
- 24:08Stupid cigarette shouldn't be smoking anyway.
- 24:11It's not cool. Yeah.
- 24:15I promise. I pressed the button.
- 24:16There it is. There it is.
- 24:20Oh yeah. God damn you guys are rolling.
- 24:22High today, and that's great damage.
- 24:24This is bad. It's bad for this guy in
- 24:26general. He does get to roll evasion, but
- 24:29I've not. I haven't got hopes.
- 24:31Yeah, it's not enough. Unfortunately.
- 24:33That is 21 damage straight to his face.
- 24:40He takes. Because it's a physical attack,
- 24:43he just takes half of it even though he has armor.
- 24:47Just takes it. Yeah, take it.
- 24:50So. That's 11 damage in total, and
- 24:53he takes and he gets a critical injury, which really sucks for
- 24:55him because you hear his ribs crack as Vendel's foot hits him
- 25:03square in the solar plexus. Oh, that.
- 25:09Sounds expensive. Oh God, I didn't pay my
- 25:14insurance bill. Insurance man.
- 25:19It's really better for. Something in the audience
- 25:21doesn't know about. We didn't discuss it in
- 25:23recording, but that's OK. No, it's OK because I think a
- 25:29hellscape it. I think it's very cyberpunk to
- 25:32have insurance companies really running the show.
- 25:39I agree and vendor kicks again 20.
- 25:44The scabba tries to avoid oh dude, he can't move.
- 25:48Oh well. Every time he.
- 25:50Move he he takes the injury again, that's he tries to evade,
- 25:54doesn't do well and then gets hit for 14 damage.
- 25:58That ain't good. I mean from here.
- 26:01Oh. God wow boss, these guys are
- 26:05not. Who the fuck are these guys?
- 26:08Oh, I'm, I'm sorry. You're like, chances are you.
- 26:11Heard of us? Probably.
- 26:13But you won't for much longer, because Bendel can do that one
- 26:17more time. Oh my God, my God.
- 26:24And Bendel puts their foot into this guy's mouth, hooks their
- 26:28foot into the underside of their soft palate, and you hear it
- 26:31crunch as their eyes lose life and they fling the body across
- 26:35as it slams backwards onto the ground, blood mixing with the
- 26:39rain. Every once in a.
- 26:43While I do think to myself, are we like.
- 26:48Doing. Crimes.
- 26:51Well, don't know, but it's not, you know, Well, don't think
- 26:55about humanity. Not that easy.
- 26:56Think about what's in front of you, right?
- 26:58Because these guys are are. Mostly robots so they don't
- 27:02really count. Got it.
- 27:03I feel better already from across.
- 27:08This courtyard domino looks at you, Jeb well.
- 27:12I didn't know we were getting personal, Jeb.
- 27:14Oh. No, we're actually, here's a
- 27:18good point. Do you consider yourself human?
- 27:19Because I don't. I'm going to be honest with you.
- 27:22Let's talk. About this later, OK, I mean
- 27:25like I said. No, I don't consider.
- 27:26Myself, human and one of their. Hands without looking goes to
- 27:31grab this maelstrom in front of him that was just called Boss
- 27:35Hey. Well, let's.
- 27:37See if he's programmed with any sort of, I guess, morals,
- 27:42empathy, I don't know. Let's see how he destroys this
- 27:45guy, though, am I right? And I kind of nudge Avivi,
- 27:48because you're right next to me. Does does domino have azimotive
- 27:53flaws? No, clearly.
- 27:58Rolling 15. I'm just surprised no one.
- 28:00Corrected me if I say motive, I said Azimotive.
- 28:04Yeah, I, I. I figured that that was a joke
- 28:07on like this world's Azimov, I guess.
- 28:11The Maelstrom avoids and Domino frowns.
- 28:16A worthy opponent and you. Watch him twist on all four arms
- 28:22upside down, and smack this guy across the face with both feet.
- 28:27One of the misses, the other one hits for 17 damage, slashing
- 28:32across his chest. You can see the little flesh
- 28:37that is there spurt blood into the puddles below, and he tries
- 28:41to protect with his arm, and you watch his right arm snap.
- 28:47Oh Domino's. Really.
- 28:52Limber. It's just like the.
- 29:02The like, oh Click to click you're typing this.
- 29:09Out to his discord buddy at the same time.
- 29:13Yo. Chat this is fucked up bro.
- 29:18While you're laughing at. This retro the door to the
- 29:21vehicle you're in is they attempt to open it to hit the
- 29:25lock mechanism before he opens the door.
- 29:27Roll Evasion the land vehicle. Tech would be better, sure B at.
- 29:3417 Do I? Know my way around a car.
- 29:38I do. Fuck and.
- 29:40You lock it and he goes Who's? Damn.
- 29:43Oh. Open.
- 29:45The. Door.
- 29:46Do you open the door? Can you just open the door?
- 29:49Get the door, dude. Dude, dude, you tried to smash
- 29:56through, we're going to kill you now.
- 29:57And he pulls a gun. Out and tries to shoot you at
- 29:59close range. Oh yeah.
- 30:03There it jigs out. Can I just shrink?
- 30:06Down SO. You can't dodge bullets, my guy.
- 30:11You are. You are hit for eight damage,
- 30:13which is below your armor. So it just ablades your armor
- 30:16and the bullet flies through the other glass, shattering it,
- 30:18shattering the glass, but it stays in the door so it's
- 30:22opaque. Hey, I didn't ask for.
- 30:24Any grey coupon? And he hits you for 17, causing
- 30:30more ablation to your armor but no damage to you maybe.
- 30:36This wasn't a good idea when there's four guys about to tag
- 30:39team in there. Bad Boy steps out of the
- 30:43building and jumps over some boxes behind Domino and tries to
- 30:47attack him from behind. He has this big baseball bat
- 30:53made out of rebar, and he smacks across the back of Domino, and
- 30:56you see a piece of Domino's armor fly off into the rain.
- 31:05Oh oh. That's not gonna Oh, he swings.
- 31:09The other way, he's a. Bad seat.
- 31:16Oh. Bad boy Damn.
- 31:21Damn. Right and across the back, you
- 31:26see the rebar come back the other way and Domino wails in
- 31:32pain. You watch blood spray across bad
- 31:37boy's face. Oh no, it's.
- 31:40Dark. Almost black.
- 31:43Oh no, it's. Congealed No.
- 31:50Pain is an interesting sensation.
- 31:54And. Oh that sucks and you, you hear
- 32:00the tearing of muscle and unfortunately Domino has no torn
- 32:05of muscle in their back and they have they have -2 to melee
- 32:07attacks. Should have stretched.
- 32:14Yeah, that's the thing that. We probably should have told
- 32:15them about stretching. Don't worry, I will patch you up
- 32:21after this. Thank you, Phoebe.
- 32:25You say you're. Welcome.
- 32:30You're welcome. The.
- 32:37That is a 2 the one of the scabbers in the blue glass smoke
- 32:42all you all anybody hears is him cough.
- 32:44Oh. Dear.
- 32:49He as high. As balls and does not get up.
- 32:55Dude. You know you're bleeding.
- 32:57Oh God, there's a whiskey. Wiper in my chest.
- 33:00Why is it floating? This doesn't make sense.
- 33:03I'm so fucking high. Yeah.
- 33:08Yeah, he probably shouldn't do drugs unless they're like the
- 33:11good ones, you know? That is the good.
- 33:13One, that's the good. 1. I don't know, yeah.
- 33:19Blue glass really does get you fucked up.
- 33:22Well, all right. Well, carry on boys.
- 33:25The other. Guy who you tried to run over
- 33:27retro did. You did.
- 33:29You spike there there. Yeah, I just gave.
- 33:34Him a free hit man and he shoots you.
- 33:37Through the window of this barely hitting you actually for
- 33:40two damage which does absolutely nothing to you.
- 33:43Fuck. And he shoots you again.
- 33:46He just blew up a. Tchotchke instead.
- 33:48Yeah, and he shoots. You again for enough damage, but
- 33:50rolls a 13 and it is not enough and it shatters.
- 33:53Finally, the driver's side window.
- 33:57Hey. Man, you're going to have to pay
- 33:58for that motherfucker. I stole the car, he stole a
- 34:02shit. Car VV.
