• 0:02
  Last time on no latency. Hey, hey, stick so with.
• 0:05
  Us Kurt Vivi that's that's. Your call that didn't fully
• 0:08
  work. Oh, it's a Tobayashi P74.
• 0:11
  I thought this was just the R&D room this.
• 0:13
  Is like the control room. Portable anti radiation field.
• 0:17
  We could use that. A lot of assumptions, but I like
• 0:20
  it. Oh, that's like a win, win.
• 0:22
  Whoopi beat my pants. Cool, is the manager here?
• 0:25
  They're probably in lockdown. How are we?
• 0:27
  Building. Our just do #1 all right.
• 0:29
  I'll go for #1. Please don't touch me, Please
• 0:30
  don't touch me, Please don't touch me.
• 0:32
  Grabbed you. Oh.
• 0:32
  Nod your head if you can hear me.
• 0:34
  I'm. So sorry.
• 0:35
  Robot's malfunctioning and he's like convulsing.
• 0:37
  I'm going to try to help. They found the brick in the
• 0:39
  wall. Whoa, whoa.
• 0:40
  Pull him out. Let me try to help you.
• 0:43
  I think it kind of had it coming.
• 0:44
  Take a shot. Looks like we won't be using the
• 0:46
  mimics to make a bucket. I'm in at this point it.
• 1:00
  Well, should we going to kill these robots first or or do we
• 1:09
  do we go outside and try to rally the troops and then, you
• 1:14
  know, have them help us kill the robots?
• 1:17
  No, that doesn't sound right. He's probably kill the robots
• 1:18
  first, huh? Probably.
• 1:20
  Oh, you're muted? I'm muted.
• 1:23
  Iona. Oh sorry.
• 1:26
  Oh, I was talking the whole time.
• 1:28
  The whole oh man sucks. No, I do think we should kill
• 1:35
  the robots. Yeah, it kind of kind of seems
• 1:37
  like. That move.
• 1:39
  Agreed. Well, well, she could do it
• 1:43
  then. Cheek, cheek.
• 1:50
  You don't have to make that sound, Jeb.
• 1:52
  Now. The gun, yeah, the the guns
• 1:54
  normally do it, but I just thought I'd add to it, you know?
• 2:00
  It's it's actually more impressive if you don't do it.
• 2:03
  I do. I do.
• 2:04
  I do like it sometimes though. Yeah, to each their own I guess.
• 2:08
  Anyway, what's the first one? Just out here?
• 2:09
  The door. I keep the door open and I'm
• 2:15
  going to look around for the first red eyes, the first robot
• 2:21
  with glowing red eyes that I see, and I'm going to shoot him
• 2:24
  twice. OK.
• 2:26
  This I guess this would be the first one that I see probably.
• 2:29
  Probably. Is does it have glowing red
• 2:31
  eyes? You look at it and the eyes turn
• 2:35
  red. Oh yeah.
• 2:42
  I think, oh, maybe the eyes don't turn red.
• 2:46
  No, they do, but as you pull the gun in the ether you hear roll
• 2:54
  for initiative. Yeah, I was.
• 2:57
  Mad as well I guess. It's initiative time.
• 3:01
  Oh, boy. Oh, Jeb, I think you created.
• 3:06
  Did I? No, you didn't.
• 3:07
  You just have a really high school.
• 3:10
  Yeah, just just a quick, just a quick boy.
• 3:12
  His reference, it's reflex is is, I think, higher than all of
• 3:16
  us here is the only one who can dodge bullets.
• 3:18
  Yeah. Van Doken, it's not.
• 3:20
  Dodge bullets maybe 8. Sorry, I apologize, didn't mean
• 3:26
  to belittle. I can dodge I.
• 3:29
  Was meaning more of I was meaning more of players.
• 3:34
  Rude, rude. I exist good.
• 3:37
  Who are you? Damn.
• 3:42
  I just want to exist. You do exist, I just.
• 3:47
  Want to exist? Your seat, Vendel.
• 3:53
  Thank you PV, so are you mainly because you have now 2 sets of
• 3:57
  ears and now it's cool? That is pretty cool.
• 4:01
  Yeah. Helps.
• 4:04
  So although Jeb, you did roll very high on initiative, sadly
• 4:12
  leave there is someone else here just one tick of time ahead of
• 4:18
  you. Although you do feel like
• 4:21
  somebody moves before you, they are not near where you are.
• 4:28
  Jack, you pull your gun out and you you shoot 2 bullets through
• 4:34
  the air. You hit this red eyed mimic you
• 4:41
  with these bullets. Sure do.
• 4:43
  Causing one of the bullets hits and causes a decent amount of
• 4:47
  damage. Actually you watch a bit of the
• 4:50
  armor get ablated. Unfortunately, your second shot
• 4:53
  does not do enough damage to break the armor and so nothing
• 4:56
  happens. Well, that one's looking like
• 4:59
  it's a little worse for wear. Why don't we finish that one
• 5:02
  off? Who's next?
• 5:05
  Van Dale? No, unfortunately it's a mimic.
• 5:10
  No, but yeah, but you're after the mimic, so you know who's
• 5:13
  next out of us. You.
• 5:15
  Me. Yeah.
• 5:16
  So go ahead and I'll say you finish that guy off.
• 5:20
  The red eyed mimic comes towards you.
• 5:22
  You hear a clicking noise and a gun fires out the side of its
• 5:26
  leg. Oh who?
• 5:29
  Pulls out a heavy pistol and actually is only 10 feet away
• 5:33
  from you. Rolling a 20 hits you for 15
• 5:41
  damage unless you can dodge A20. I can try.
• 5:45
  Nope, you get hit with a bullet that does 15 damage, so 4 damage
• 5:52
  and your armor goes down by 1. It's head cocks to the left.
• 6:00
  A holographic smile appears floating in front of its face.
• 6:05
  It is very disconcerting. Cheeks again.
• 6:11
  Oh my God. Dodger, Crit 32.
• 6:15
  I can try. 23 Oh that's good though 23 is a valiant effort.
• 6:23
  Unfortunately it is not enough. But the bullet only does 6
• 6:27
  damage which does thick to your armor.
• 6:34
  It does not bring it down by one my.
• 6:37
  Gosh, what was that? That was me actually, not I was
• 6:39
  making shot. Jeb No.
• 6:45
  It hurts I've. Never have an enemy that can
• 6:48
  actually hurt us. It's terrifying it.
• 6:52
  Only happens like 3 * a year. Jeb, I have a feeling it's going
• 6:57
  to happen a lot more soon. Step aside.
• 7:00
  You still have. Movement.
• 7:01
  Don't say that. You're right, I do.
• 7:06
  Where do you go, Jeb? Inside the door and hide.
• 7:09
  No, you're going to go inside the door and hide 'cause you're
• 7:11
  a scat sketched man. That's good.
• 7:15
  What does Vandel do? Vandel with their roller feet is
• 7:20
  going to slam directly into this Doo Doo Doo Doo mimic and hit
• 7:28
  them trying trying to. Oh my.
• 7:32
  Goodness, what do you? Call it.
• 7:34
  It's where do you put you rescuer them with the glass.
• 7:38
  Oh, just like right through the sensor, yeah.
• 7:43
  Oh wow. So this is like a gut sword.
• 7:48
  Move. 22 Nice. Do mimics have a reflex of
• 7:56
  eight? They do.
• 7:57
  Go ahead, try. Go ahead, make my day.
• 8:04
  It it it fails to do so, Fandel goes skating forward, pulling
• 8:09
  out their sword. They drive it into the centre of
• 8:13
  the mimic and the back end of the sword comes out the back of
• 8:15
  the mimic and pins the mimic into a crate.
• 8:22
  Badass. The mimic is impaled through the
• 8:26
  middle by the glass sword. Oh.
• 8:31
  Fuck you. Do I just for the second attack,
• 8:37
  you should just you should slice up slice up through the chest.
• 8:41
  Oh OK, Slice up through the chest, right through the eyes,
• 8:45
  bitch. Vendel goes to do it, rolling 18
• 8:51
  as they are pinned. They get a minus to this
• 8:54
  evasion. Be aware of that.
• 8:56
  Still not enough. Doesn't matter.
• 8:58
  The mimic rolls a 16 and gets split in half from the middle to
• 9:02
  the very top of the head. This does not necessarily mean
• 9:05
  that they are disabled, but it does mean that they take a major
• 9:09
  critical injuries. It's still it's mildly alive,
• 9:13
  which is horrifying because now these two red eyes are split,
• 9:18
  dangling as the arms try and grab Vandel.
• 9:22
  Vandel's going to spend a lot to make a third attack.
• 9:25
  Oh fuck. Oh.
• 9:29
  Is that a thing? Yeah, with the glass.
• 9:31
  Oh, what? I've never used it but I just
• 9:33
  read. It OH.
• 9:37
  That's Oh my God, that's. OP Yeah, so.
• 9:40
  Is OP, I obviously gave that to you and it's a terrible idea.
• 9:46
  It's OK if Andel only has two luck.
• 9:48
  Sure so oh vibes Well, then that's balanced.
• 9:51
  That's fine, I. Feel.
• 9:55
  Are you feeling lucky? Tell me Mimic.
• 9:57
  Do you feel lucky? Yeah, get it, Vandel.
• 10:01
  'Cause I do. And Vendel takes the sword and
• 10:04
  crosses their own slice, cutting the two pieces of the head
• 10:08
  apart. How do you get more luck?
• 10:11
  You rest. Well, you get.
• 10:13
  That's how you get it back. Do you ever do that?
• 10:15
  You can't. There's no way to add to your
• 10:17
  luck bucket. You're lucky without like
• 10:20
  inventing some hair through bullshit.
• 10:21
  You're. Just built that way.
• 10:23
  Yeah, 15 damage in total. The mimic shuts down parts of
• 10:29
  its spark as it tries to stay connected and then goes dark.
• 10:34
  It has been disabled. Way to go Vendel.
• 10:39
  Yeah. Good work.
• 10:42
  Hell yeah, Vendel, that was sick.
• 10:44
  That's nice. You do exist.
• 10:49
  I exist and now this one doesn't.
• 10:51
  Ha ha, fuck you. I know it's your turn.
• 10:56
  I was going to step out the door it what is the the next closest
• 11:02
  mimic? Is it this guy?
• 11:06
  It's. That guy that you know of?
• 11:08
  Unless you want to roll Perception, no.
• 11:11
  I'm just going to shoot it. He's directly in front of me.
• 11:14
  Fair enough. All right, this is bam.
• 11:19
  I'm using my Rimware IP edition handgun.
• 11:23
  In Oh, that's an 18. +4. +4. Yeah, I have +4 to handgun in in
• 11:32
  that weapon in particular. I'm reading my stuff.
• 11:34
  Oh my God, what have we done? That's no you've tried to win.
• 11:41
  And Vendel killers, oh gosh damn it.
• 11:47
  The mimic Dodgers, you see it almost preempt your gunfire, and
• 11:55
  as it steps to it's right, Vandel looks at you in fear but
• 12:02
  only sees a smile. Why is that, Ayanna?
• 12:07
  Because I could tell that when he stepped to the side he was
• 12:12
  trying to get into my periphery. But I got the side eye of a
• 12:15
  genius 15 year old girl. Can't side eye better than I can
• 12:23
  so I just slide my gun over a little and pow.
• 12:27
  Rolling a quit 27 and hitting for enough damage too Nice.
• 12:36
  You watch pieces of the mimic fly off.
• 12:40
  I'm going to head back into the room.
• 12:42
  It's damaged in it's attempt to dodge, which just for
• 12:47
  pageantry's sake, yeah, not a grit, so it doesn't matter.
• 12:50
  And the because you hit a crit, he takes a step back.
• 12:54
  I wouldn't. I see the mimic take a step
• 12:56
  back. I'm also going to take a step
• 12:58
  back into the room and hide around the corner.
• 13:03
  Yeah, but just on the other side of the doorway.
• 13:05
  Nice. Oh, I wanna.
• 13:07
  I I shot, I shot one very well, all right?
• 13:11
  So is he down or we go? How many we got left?
• 13:14
  He's not down. He's definitely attacking me.
• 13:17
  Shit. Retro and I'll finish the job.
• 13:22
  Yeah, get on out there. And as Retro moves through the
• 13:25
  door, I'm going to slap his ass, Grace.
• 13:28
  Yeah, Vendel gets attacked by the remaining mimic using an arm
• 13:35
  like a melee weapon, goes to swing it and Vendel.
• 13:38
  Vendel has to dodge. Dodge a 20, yes?
• 13:41
  I'm going in. Oh.
• 13:45
  It'll come. It'll happen, don't worry.
• 13:49
  Eventually. Sometimes in combat, moments can
• 13:53
  feel like an eternity. That harm's coming really
• 13:55
  slowly. I hope I can dodge you.
• 13:56
  It's right here. There it is.
• 14:02
  Can't. And Dale spends too long in this
• 14:05
  flow state, staring at the end of the of the arm and rolling a
• 14:09
  crit fail 11 gets beaned in the face with this thing taking five
• 14:15
  damage. Oh, you're.
• 14:19
  Going to swing again, aren't you?
• 14:20
  The robot cock sits head sideways and nods and swings.
• 14:28
  I've got a dodge at 15. Pay attention everyone you.
• 14:31
  Can do it. You can do it.
• 14:34
  OK. Dee.
• 14:37
  Hey. Bendel dodges the second attack,
• 14:41
  which actually was going to do more damage.
• 14:43
  That's good. Hey, not bad Van Dale, you
• 14:46
  really can dodge bullets. Yeah, I know.
• 14:54
  Like like you. Well, sometimes.
• 14:56
  Not that last time, though. No, not that last time, but most
• 14:59
  of the time you're pretty good at it, yeah.
• 15:01
  Most of the time you are. Bleeding just a little bit, but
• 15:04
  I think it's going to close up real soon.
• 15:08
  Oh, there it goes. It's closed.
• 15:12
  You hear the sound of moving servos and through some of the
• 15:17
  boxes you see another red eyed mimic appear through the doorway
• 15:24
  to the West. Oh.
• 15:26
  Fuck. It comes around the side of some
• 15:27
  crates and shoots Vendel and their gun jams and it looks at
• 15:36
  the gun, looks at Vendel and throws it at Vendel.
• 15:42
  That's what I'd do. And they'll dodges the shitty
• 15:45
  gun with a 19. Amazing.
• 15:49
  Hey. Chose a gun, you fight like a
• 15:52
  robot. I let the home actor until after
• 15:54
  Vivi for this round. Oh.
• 15:56
  Retro looks at Vivo and just puts the hand out lightly.
• 15:59
  We go. Oh yes, I'll go.
• 16:05
  I'll go shooting. So I'm going to go out the door
• 16:13
  and stand next to Vendel. High High 5.
• 16:19
  Give a quick high 5. Slaps.
• 16:23
  Click quick hands, hand slap and then shoot.
• 16:33
  Can I? Wherever I came from I could get
• 16:34
  in melee range. You were definitely in melee
• 16:37
  range. Yeah, I'm actually going to use
• 16:40
  the baseball bat again because I was enjoying.
• 16:43
  Hell yeah. Taking some swings at these
• 16:45
  things, it's. Very fun, I split one in half
• 16:49
  with a sword. Yeah.
• 16:50
  It it's very satisfying and you don't.
• 16:52
  Have to feel bad because they're just robots, right?
• 16:55
  Yeah. You know, I've, I've been kind
• 16:58
  of, we're kind of like thinking about the fact that we do a lot
• 17:01
  of violence and I'm not sure that's maybe always the best way
• 17:05
  to accomplish things, but in this case it 100% is.
• 17:09
  Swing your baseball bat, ah. When you watch the mimic try and
• 17:12
  dodge as Jeb continues. To talk.
• 17:16
  It was just a little monologue, you know, I don't even know if
• 17:18
  you can consider it. No.
• 17:22
  The mimic grabs the end of the bat.
• 17:27
  You must die. Die.
• 17:31
  Oh no, and I moved. Oh, I try to swing again, but I
• 17:38
  don't. You don't.
• 17:42
  Dang. Didn't roll a crit fail so you
• 17:44
  don't lose the weapon. I'm not going to do that to you.
• 17:46
  That's that's dumb. But you managed to get the
• 17:47
  weapon out of the hand, but that's all you do.
• 17:50
  You don't do any damage. I just hold the bat looking at
• 17:53
  this thing. Shit, shit, shit.
• 18:12
  3000 miles of open Rd. The Jeb and Retro Show Oh man,
• 18:17
  this is going to be tough. Join Jeff.
• 18:19
  Wakey wakey, sleepy Princess. And retro, I did not agree to
• 18:24
  this Jeff on the road trip of a lifetime.
• 18:28
  Oh yeah, she did. Fam's got some shoes on the mid.
• 18:31
  No, it was the second car to the left.
• 18:34
  As they take on Route 66, the. Jeb and Retro show.
• 18:39
  Brought to you by. No latency.
• 18:43
  I hate Rd. trips. Listen to the Jeb and Retro Show

  Latency, and check out more at nolatencypodcast.com.
• 19:04
  Retro is going to go ahead and they're going to push.
• 19:12
  Sorry, I don't know why. That just startled me.
• 19:16
  Retro is going to go ahead, pick Kurt up in a fireman's carry
• 19:22
  over their shoulder, left shoulder, most of the like,
• 19:28
  keeping the legs. That's that way they still can
• 19:30
  freely use their right arm and we'll pop out the the Hellfire
• 19:38
  pistol that has been lodged there.
• 19:40
  I don't know if I can do this at the same time I'm going to call
• 19:48
  Trauma Team. What at the same time of heading
• 19:53
  towards the outside? Huh.
• 19:58
  Oh. Can you call trauma team?
• 20:01
  Hey Retro, are you on the phone right now?
• 20:04
  I'm waiting. I've been on in like 20 minutes.
• 20:06
  I've been trying to get trauma team to get here.
• 20:08
  Trauma team you're calling trauma.
• 20:11
  Team Retro, in order to call Trauma Team, they have to think
• 20:15
  this is important. Roll the face down, OK?
• 20:21
  Can you just come anyway and charge you?
• 20:24
  No, they have priority. Does this person have trauma
• 20:27
  team insurance? Did you check?
• 20:29
  No. OK.
• 20:33
  D10 plus cool, plus your Rep. Yeah.
• 20:36
  Oh, then 1919 I rolled an 8. You are still on hold.
• 20:47
  OK, I've been. Drama team is more famous than
• 20:51
  you, so I don't doubt it. I'm just going to go ahead and
• 20:56
  I'm going to carry Kurt towards the entrance.
• 20:59
  Then. Cool.
• 21:02
  What's your what's retro's move? Six.
• 21:06
  So. All right, so retro, in the heat
• 21:09
  of this battle, you're able to drag him 4.
• 21:14
  I'm carrying him. I'm not dragging him.
• 21:16
  Drag him. Carry him.
• 21:18
  He's a pretty hurt man. He is.
• 21:21
  Kurt is hurt. You are correct.
• 21:24
  Yeah, I'm just going to fire him and carry and this mimic right
• 21:30
  there, I'll take a shot at there's a mimic closer to the
• 21:34
  door than the others. And you?
• 21:36
  Pull your one handed weapon out. Oh 21 retro who?
• 21:43
  My God, the bullet fight. This very dangerous bullet lies
• 21:49
  through the room and sticks straight in the wall, causing a
• 21:51
  crater in the concrete. But the mimic.
• 21:55
  Dodges. Son of a bitch.
• 22:01
  Did we all miss? I mean, I did.
• 22:04
  I didn't. We I didn't miss, just Phoebe
• 22:07
  and Retro. Not to throw shade, but we are
• 22:09
  now in danger, Buck. Yeah.
• 22:13
  Can we finish this off? Jeff.
• 22:16
  Yeah. It's your turn.
• 22:20
  So. Oh.
• 22:22
  What would you look at that? Yeah, hold on one SEC.
• 22:30
  And so this guy is the most hurt, is that correct?
• 22:33
  Yes. OK.
• 22:38
  I just whispered so quietly. Because I kept a steady hand and
• 22:43
  I quit twice. That's wild.
• 22:53
  What the hell? I got to be more level headed
• 22:56
  more often. Jesus.
• 22:59
  Christ. That's a one in 100 chance.
• 23:03
  Yes, it is. That's crazy.
• 23:06
  With with the sly whisper of the flick of a wrist Jeb you shoot
• 23:15
  twice from the hip and these shots ring out through this room
• 23:21
  like a pin falling on glass. In a perfect silent moment they
• 23:26
  sing out an echo through this room.
• 23:29
  Your two crit successes of bullets 1 causing 16 damage and
• 23:36
  the other one's causing 9 damage, both causing a critical
• 23:40
  injury. The hand that was trying to grab
• 23:45
  V VS bat. The fingers are blown apart and
• 23:50
  it now can't do that with its left hand.
• 23:52
  And then the same arm shot again as a bullet ricochets out of its
• 24:00
  own elbow and the arm falls completely lit.
• 24:03
  They get -2 to melee attacks that's.
• 24:09
  Cool, fuck that guy. Fuck that guy.
• 24:14
  That guy in particular. And the mimic being hit twice
• 24:20
  and now having this critical injury. 2 critical injuries It
• 24:24
  takes a step back from VV, giving VV a chance to breathe a
• 24:28
  little bit. It's my turn.
• 24:32
  I I could be cool too I think. You sure can and I slap him in
• 24:37
  the ass. Nice.
• 24:40
  It's a new thing I'm trying. I don't know if it's going to
• 24:42
  carry on, but is it? Going to give us, I guess, if it
• 24:46
  gives us motivation, Jeb. If you touch my bottom, we are
• 24:49
  going to have severe problems. Oh, I was never going to.
• 24:53
  No one is ever going to touch Iona's bottom.
• 24:56
  Not in a bad way, just we would never cross that line.
• 25:01
  Thank you, I do I it was a new bit and I didn't know how far
• 25:05
  the bit was going. To go, honestly I was a little
• 25:07
  uncomfortable trying it with VV 2, so I started with Retro
• 25:10
  because I know we got an understanding and honestly maybe
• 25:13
  that was off the line Van Dale, so just let me know, I apologise
• 25:19
  if it was. No, no, you're good.
• 25:20
  Fist bump. Hell yeah.
• 25:22
  All right. It's going to go into this
• 25:26
  mimic. I mean, you see this one, the
• 25:28
  the healthier one. I'm just going to take this
• 25:30
  sword in my hand, right? I love it.
• 25:33
  Correct. What do I do?
• 25:36
  Shall I try and? Hiya.
• 25:38
  Hi. You should absolutely hiya.
• 25:41
  Hey, red eyes, take this. Bitch there you.
• 25:43
  Go. And the mimic rolls a crit fail
• 25:47
  on evasion. Trying to move aside takes the
• 25:50
  damage. I really wish that I could crit
• 25:59
  as well. Oh, wait.
• 26:01
  I did crit 33 hell yeah it's. Working.
• 26:06
  Jeb, maybe you should touch their butts.
• 26:09
  Maybe you should. It's like a.
• 26:12
  Sports thing, it's good luck. Yeah, pushing the mimic back
• 26:15
  with a kick. As Vendel pulls the sword out of
• 26:18
  the centre of the mimic, pieces of its servos and circuits,
• 26:21
  wires and other electronic detritus fly into the air and
• 26:26
  scatter across the floor. But that was cool.
• 26:31
  That was cool it. Was cool.
• 26:34
  Ayo, no, you didn't see it was really cool.
• 26:36
  Oh. Come on.
• 26:37
  Oh, all right, VV, step aside. I'm going to finish this one
• 26:43
  off. OK, go right ahead.
• 26:48
  Come on, there we go. Oh Iona, you step past VV, the
• 26:55
  mimic distracted, tries to evade, doesn't beat your DV and
• 26:59
  gets hit with crit damage. 21 damage.
• 27:07
  That's a lot of damage. Thanks.
• 27:10
  That's a lot of damage. That's a lot of damage.
• 27:13
  Does it die? You blow a hole through the
• 27:15
  mimic logo on its chest and on the other side is what you
• 27:20
  assume to be it's Dada or transmit chip and it falls to
• 27:24
  the ground dead because you genuinely did more damage than
• 27:28
  it has helped. Just one left now.
• 27:33
  Isn't that normally how you killed something in this game?
• 27:36
  Just doing more. Tables and that's helped.
• 27:38
  All right, GMA Complex, they're on their own when they listen to
• 27:43
  this. This one, this one's still up
• 27:46
  that. One's still up that one there.
• 27:50
  Oh oh, right there. I thought my periphery was
• 27:53
  better than this. You were talking about it I.
• 27:56
  Was I was. Oh, how did you?
• 28:00
  Do that again. How?
• 28:01
  Did I do that again? That's.
• 28:05
  Wow, how did I do that again? It's not the roll 20.
• 28:08
  Wait. That's the same.
• 28:10
  It's not the same damage roll. Roll 20 is.
• 28:13
  Different. But the though you, you, Iona,
• 28:18
  you repeat almost exactly the same move.
• 28:23
  Side eye? Nice, that's good enough
• 28:26
  shooting power. Causing 22 damage almost
• 28:32
  execution style. I clanker.
• 28:39
  Yeah. Almost execution style.
• 28:42
  You just shoot 1, pass your gun to the other hand and shoot the
• 28:45
  other. Ambidextrous.
• 28:49
  I was ambidextrous. I thought it was a thing.
• 28:51
  Apparently. Yeah.
• 28:52
  OK, that makes sense. It seems like a very Iona thing.
• 28:57
  Iona does a very cool move in this battle.
• 29:03
  And is it? It is at this point that combat
• 29:09
  is. That oh, I, I think that's.
• 29:13
  All. Yeah, I think.
• 29:14
  I hope to never see another one of those again.
• 29:17
  We. We should.
• 29:17
  Probably do a sweep of the building.
• 29:20
  Yeah, good idea. We still have to get all our
• 29:23
  PPE. Oh wait, we have to get the
• 29:25
  people in here. Yeah, we got, we got it.
• 29:27
  I mean, we cleared them out. That was Step 1.
• 29:29
  Clear out the robots with the with the killer intent and then
• 29:33
  we go bring in the people to make us the stuff that we want
• 29:37
  to have them give to us for free.
• 29:43
  Right. Missing something?
• 29:45
  No. OK.
• 29:47
  All right, Jeb. Oh, since I see Retro has Kurt
• 29:49
  here, should we sweep the building?
• 29:51
  Check for more robots? Yeah.
• 29:53
  Meaning, let's do it. Happy holidays from the Mimics.
• 29:58
  God damn. I'm gonna start heading towards
• 30:00
  the front door. Do do do do do do do do do.
• 30:03
  Do Whoa. That's a lot of.
• 30:04
  Red do exploring. Are you seeing him standing
• 30:10
  here? I'm I'm coming, hold on.
• 30:12
  Do do, do, do do click go. Oh, this is a lot of red
• 30:21
  barrels. That seems dangerous.
• 30:24
  Oh, they're red barrels, don't they are OK.
• 30:29
  Can I read one of the barrels? Yes.
• 30:32
  Does it say mimic inside? No it does not.
• 30:36
  Oh, thank God. It's most of them say danger
• 30:41
  explosive, but a few of them say sealed radioactive material.
• 30:47
  Oh, oh, Oh well, be careful over here, there are explosives.
• 30:55
  Yeah, I'm glad that stray bullet didn't, you know, hit one.
• 31:01
  Yeah. Yeah, that could have been bad.
• 31:04
  Don't want to think about that. Meanwhile, outside, Kurt is
• 31:10
  being carried by Retro. Gone.
• 31:19
  I'm sorry, but I can't really understand what you're saying.
• 31:21
  We got to, we got to get somebody to you.
• 31:24
  You're pretty fucked up. Funny, there was a doctor
• 31:27
  nearby. If only.
• 31:32
  Sure, you're taking me towards a doctor and not away from one,
• 31:35
  right? Wait, didn't your friends say
• 31:38
  they were a doctor? Yeah, but they're busy killing
• 31:40
  things at the moment, so they're not going to attend to you,
• 31:42
  apparently. They all felt like they.
• 31:44
  Were done with it. You carried on.
• 31:45
  Couldn't carry me out of the door.
• 31:48
  Porta potties down here. Oh.
• 31:49
  Great. From where I'm at, I'm in the
• 31:58
  courtyard. I can either go, it looks like I
• 31:59
  can either go back through the building that we came in or I do
• 32:03
  see that there is the delivery gate.
• 32:05
  Does the delivery gate look like I could get through that pretty
• 32:08
  easily? I mean, you could, you'd have to
• 32:12
  unlock it or like raise it. Is there anything that shows
• 32:16
  that anything, anything I can see in eyesight?
• 32:19
  It seems to have some kind of detector, but there is no direct
• 32:22
  button out here to open or close it.
• 32:26
  You'd have to roll something to do anymore with that.
• 32:28
  You do have a man on you, right? Right.
• 32:32
  Yeah. What?
• 32:36
  Best case scenario, I'm going to just go ahead and take him over
• 32:39
  to the manager area and maybe I can at least put him down on a
• 32:43
  couch so that way he's not going to be near any gunfire, right?
• 32:49
  I'll walk into the manager's office and oh, a couch.
• 32:54
  Set him down on the couch, right?
• 32:56
  You bring Kurt into the manager's office and they're
• 32:59
  sitting at the desk In the manager's office is the manager.
• 33:07
  What are you doing in here? One second, Sir, I'm on hold.
• 33:14
  No, you just walk. You just walked into my office.
• 33:19
  Yeah, I did, carrying a hurt employee of yours.
• 33:23
  Sir. Who are you?
• 33:26
  You know, I'm, I'm, I'm surprised that you don't have
• 33:28
  any SOP for, for, for injuries going on here.
• 33:33
  Sir, I why are you in my? Office.
• 33:36
  What, are you fucking blind? Do you not see Kurt here is
• 33:40
  obviously in a bad way. Well, human perception.
• 33:43
  Ayon, are you outside the door? Yes, I I've, I've been sweeping
• 33:47
  the building and I watched retro Carrie Kerr into this room and
• 33:52
  I'm just standing outside the door listening.
• 33:55
  Retro, you rolled A crit fail on human perception and so discover
• 34:00
  absolutely nothing. This is a crit fail.
• 34:06
  You get nothing for that. No, I know.
• 34:07
  I don't get anything. I just don't.
• 34:09
  Just like. Yeah, yeah.
• 34:10
  No, I'm. I'm.
• 34:11
  I'm too busy at least trying to trying to take care of Kurt.
• 34:14
  And I will let you do that. If you want to roll to see if
• 34:17
  you can help him stay stabilized, you can.
• 34:20
  I sure will. I will roll.
• 34:22
  Does anyone else want to roll perception?
• 34:24
  Stabilize. I also eventually join and step
• 34:31
  in. It's 5 + 14 for first aid.
• 34:38
  You do? Yeah.
• 34:40
  OK, well, you just can roll first aid.
• 34:44
  You've got tech 8. You're doing great.
• 34:46
  Yeah. You stabilize him.
• 34:46
  He even gained some health. I'll let you roll.
• 34:48
  Roll 2D6. He gets 2D6 health.
• 34:51
  All right. This is as long as he does not
• 34:55
  die. He gained 6 health.
• 34:58
  Done. Hey, you go, buddy.
• 35:02
  Thank you. Iona, you look over towards Kurt
• 35:09
  as Retro takes care of him and you see that he is feeling a lot
• 35:14
  better and you see Retro do a really good job.
• 35:16
  It's quite impressive. Well, good job, Retro.
• 35:20
  Vivi, you would look at that, except you're distracted by the
• 35:24
  manager. What about the manager?
• 35:28
  Oh no, he's hot. He looks you in the eye and
• 35:37
  smiled. And the thing that really
• 35:42
  strikes you is there is a protest going on outside.
• 35:48
  It was just gunfire. All the mimics in the building
• 35:52
  got affected. There was all of this chaos and
• 35:58
  yet this man seems unfazed. Viral.
• 36:05
  Yeah. And he smiles at you, and you
• 36:09
  watch him pull out a gun and point it towards Retro, and his
• 36:14
  eyes go red. Oh, Retro, No.
• 36:20
  And there's a shimmer in the room.
• 36:22
  What is that? Just for a second you can see
• 36:27
  he's a mimic retro Vivi. Because you rolled A crit
• 36:37
  success, you are able to take action.
• 36:41
  Retro. Get down, he's a mimic.
• 36:45
  I and I dive. Over the coffee table.
• 36:52
  I dive over the coffee table into him.
• 36:56
  All right, roll for it. This is crazy.
• 37:04
  This is. Not the best.
• 37:10
  Oh. No fucking way.
• 37:14
  Just as the bullet is about to be fired, you crash into this
• 37:19
  mimic and he falls to the side of the sofa.
• 37:25
  You don't roll. A crip fails, You don't get
• 37:27
  hurt, but now you're stuck in a tiny room with a mimic and a
• 37:33
  hurt cut. OK.
• 37:36
  We got to take him down. Next time, Oh no latency.
• 37:51
  I'm just going to take him out. So we should get in there,
• 37:54
  right? Vendel, I think you should get
• 37:56
  in there. Down low.
• 38:00
  Get him Vendel. Right in the middle.
• 38:02
  I am calling trauma team he's. Kind of sprawled on the floor
• 38:05
  still. Yeah, I'm still on.
• 38:07
  Hold Can someone please fucking kill this thing?
• 38:10
  All right, baseball bat, do not let me down this time.
• 38:14
  My sentiments exactly. Hey, Chad.
• 38:17
  Is that Chad? Trash.
• 38:20
  So I was really paying attention.
• 38:21
  What? Was that hey?
• 38:22
  Fuck the clankers. Yeah, let's go rally.
• 38:25
  No, I mean we don't know that the Mimic killed him, but.
• 38:27
  Fuck the clankers. Never will we have robots take
• 38:31
  human jobs. Whoopie.
• 38:34
  Are just as capable. He's a real messed up.
• 38:37
  If you believe in yourselves. That's not on you.
• 38:39
  You couldn't control them, so that's not on you.
• 38:41
  You get any sort of satisfaction?
• 38:45
  It's happening, it's happening. I can hear it.
• 38:47
  They think. They think that they're doing
• 38:49
  the thing. You do exist.
• 39:13
  See, I exist and now this one doesn't.
• 39:15
  Ha ha, fuck you. I know it's your turn.
• 39:20
  Yippee, that's not what Iona says.
• 39:26
  Iona is going to Iona. So Iona.
• 39:30
  So Iona Iona is a little giddy being in a PPE factory though.
• 39:35
  Yes, that's fair. D10 plus cool, plus your Rep.
• 39:41
  Yeah, cool. Plus reputation plus 1D10.
• 39:43
  Dang does Jade know the what? The fuck is happening to me
• 39:48
  today? Do I play this game all of a
• 39:50
  sudden? What?
• 39:52
  What the fuck? I don't know what's going on,
• 39:55
  guys. I might.
• 39:56
  I'm scared too weird. Come on, maybe he's.
• 40:02
  Still like holding that bat? Cool.
• 40:05
