Yeah, you can say she's had some spine reinforcement, though a total replacement is a bigger deal. I just figured she busted through doors by doing a jackhammer thing where she wasn't really "throwing" a punch so much as extending her forearm like a piston.

I'll have the timeskip up soon.

And by "soon" I probably mean "not actually soon."

...that would be fricking sweet. yes, I like that idea.

seems like that would be within reason as well, and since you thought it up, hey, why not?

also in better news I am online all around, work and home.

@ Collinicus: To be clear, there are no real walls around the compound. Just some simple fencing around the property line that could be easily leapt over. Here's a picture that should give you a basic idea.

Darn, and here I was envisioning a grand Gothic fortress. Dunno why, but I was.

[up]Vespa and Sarah are the two who need to go in, so he's saying he can drop a rappel line to them if they would prefer to go to the roof. The "cavalry" is Chun, Serenity, and Anastya's bots, so he suggested that the two of them who do things hands-on, plus the two drones, stick to the perimeter and get ready to move in if things go south.

all right, what are her chances of getting out unscathed?

and can i get a vats-style breakdown on what's most likely to get messed up?

Crotch We can negotiate this.

Edit: These guys mostly have lasers. Maybe one could blind Vespa, necessitating the need for HD camera eyes?

'Thinkin' the same thing!'

i was mainly concerned about the missiles, as that seems like something that could cause some major collateral, but one way or another it feels like i've unintentionally put vespa in a bit of a jam. that's hardly a problem (still feels like she'll come out alive) but it does raise the possibilities for transhumanist development.

edit vespa and liam are on opposite sides of the shield wall, right?

Not in the sense that anyone would be flanking it; the face of the remaining shield wall (as there were briefly two before Liam snuck up behind one and killed half the guards) is toward both of you, or would be if Vespa went down the stairs. I could draw a diagram if needed.

yeah, i know it takes up the whole hallway, but they're on opposite sides as in vespa on side a, the wall blocking off side b, where liam and the guards are.

@ Aquatica2000: Okay, he doesn't have to comfort her, but your post might at least acknowledge that she's whimpering.

@ F1r3lemon: Anton is not indoors. If he throws a teargas grenade at the garage the best he can do is bounce it off the outside of the door. As mentioned, the garage is underground, so the door and the concrete ramp leading down to it are the only parts of it even visible.

@ Wikkit: I don't know what reinforced window you're talking about. To make things simple I'm just going to say Mr. Chun busted through the door Liam used to sneak behind the shielded guards. That way he can slip out behind Mr. Chun without getting shot by autopistols again,

I've pretty much had zero idea as to the construction of this building. Let's keep it short and say I'm Architecturally Challenged.

is it weird that I actually like how things are proceeding so far? maybe it's just because it's realistic (well, as realistic as a bunch of faceless corporate goons......Oh, Crap!)

in any case, I kind of like this because the damage is real and it can actually happen to someone. I realize that we kind of set this up but it's progressed rather organically, in my opinion.

either way, at least we'll get so see the results of the eye cybernetics.

Christ. Try hacking the enemy vehicles, subverting enemy communications, scouting the compound with Fritz for a security room or anything. Just use your imagination.
