Yana: All right, people. We've touched down; let's make a clean sweep of this place. Talbot and Farnan, you're our heavy-weapons people - if anyone spots Eeks holed up in inaccessible places, you guys toss some HE rounds Eekwards.
Everyone else, sweep the area - if you need heavy fire support, sing out.
(WHIRR WHIRR WHIRR WHIRR WHIRR)
Yana:What the hell is THAT?
◊ It's . . . jeez, it looks like it's wearing an old diving suit. It's not X-Com, that's for sure. Anyone know if this place does diving tours?
Talbot: Not according to the guidebooks I read.
Yana: All right then. I'm assuming it's hostile.
(PSHHEW-KAWHANG)
Calcinite: GURRAGHOW . . .
Yana: It's down, whatever it is.
◊
(KTHUMP)
Talbot: . . .
Yana: Okaaay. Now we know what the Eeks want here - live specimens. Fan out, people - and if you see any Eeks with those weird launchers in hand, kill 'em!
(WHIRR WHIRR WHIRR)
Yana: . . . Another one of those diving-suit monsters
◊. What is this, some kind of grade-Z Ed Wood movie set?
(PSHHEW-KAWHANG)
Calcinite: GURRAGHOW . . .
(VWOINK-BZZZ)
Farnan: Ugh . . . I don't feel so good. And . . . I'm hearing voices . . .
Yana: Farnan. Drop your weapon, now!
Farnan: . . . Sir?
Princeps: Do it, Farnan. The Eeks are trying to take control of your mind.
Farnan: Like, make me think you guys are aliens?
Yana: Exactly. Eek psionics cost X-Com a lot of good men in the first war.
(VWOINK-BZBZBZ)
Farnan: No, no, no, no, no!
(CLUNK)
Yana: . . . Well, shit. At least they only panicked him, so he's unarmed.
(VWOINK-BZBZBZ)
Arilou: Aliens, everywhere! EVERYONE'S AN ALIEN!
(VWOINK-BZBZBZ)
Farnan: Kill 'em! Kill 'em all!
Myst Rose: Crap. Wait, I see an Eek. Taking the shot.
(THUPP-CRACKLE)
Aquatoid: EEEOW!
Arilou: Ugh, what happened?
Yana: The Eeks got to you, Arilou.
Arilou: Oh, jesus - I didn't hurt anyone, did I?
Tracy: Yeah, there was one casualty - my wits! As in, "scared out of!"
(POINK-CRACKLE)
Tracy: YAUGH!
(VWOINK-BZBZBZ)
Arilou: No, no, oh god, no . . .
Myst: Yana, we've got an Eek in here - I think it might be the one responsible! I don't have a clear shot, though!
Yana: Hang on, Myst - I've got it covered!
(PSSHEW-KAWHANG)
Aquatoid: EEEOW!
(WHIRR WHIRR WHIRR)
Yana: Well, hello there Mr. Eek-With-A-Non-Lethal-Weapon.
(PSHHEW-KAWHANG)
Aquatoid: EEEOW!
dmboogie: Got something. Taking the shot.
(THUPP-CRACKLE)
Aquatoid: EEEOW!
(CRUNCH CRUNCH CRUNCH)
nos: Hey, I've got an Eek near those moai.
◊ . . . Wait a minute, what are moai doing out here?
Arilou: Who cares? Kill the bitch - he's probably the one who's been fucking with my head.
nos: With pleasure.
(THUPP-CRACKLE)
Aquatoid: . . .
Arilou: Thank you.
(CRUNCH CRUNCH CRUNCH)
nos: Whoa, hey, another animated diving suit!
(THUPP-CRACKLE THUPP-CRACKLE)
Calcinite: GURRAGHOW . . .
(WHIRR WHIRR WHIRR WHIRR WHIRR)
nos: Hey, we got a tunnel over here.
Myst: I see something moving in there.
(POINK-CRACKLE)
(THUPP-CRACKLE THUPP-CRACKLE)
(WHUMPH)
Aquatoids: EEEOW!
(CRUNCH CRUNCH CRUNCH)
(THUMP THUMP THUMP)
Yana: Why are you trying to beat up my tank?
