Ro takes a stride toward the cave dweller, but ends up losing his footing and going into an awkward combat roll thing instead. No one said being a digital being meant having perfect movement.

As he gets up, he takes note of the slime creature’s greeting. “Hi. Call me the Projector. Just happened to be around — wait, kill? I didn’t sign up for anything like that...

He turns a bit to find the scientist yelping after being cut by the caveman. “Whoa!

> If that works, throw it away from the cave dweller

Aaugh, hrrgh-
The explosion just made more wounds in your body.. Maybe the ray gun. Yes, definitely the ray gun! Its the missing piece to the drone, maybe with it.. But first, you got to find cover.

This thing’s heavier than it looks!” Ro grunts as he grabs the spear, managing to wrestle it out of the caveman’s hands. Just as he does, though, the scientist’s self-made weapon blows, and Ro loses his grip on the spear while trying to reel it in. He drops the blade into a red truck parked on the street, which responded to the blow with a particularly loud alarm screech.

The sound makes him wince, and he smacks the vehicle a few times with one of the big hands to shut it up, then brings the arms back to himself to reciprocate the slime fellow’s handshake, watching Sander perch onto one of the two lamp posts nearby.

Didn’t mean to leave you hangin’ there. Had a lot going on for a sec,” he says, noticing a winged silhouette shrinking from the space between the street’s buildings.

Guess Sephiroth’s gonna have to get that loot somewhere else, he thinks. Not great, but better than letting him just take stuff willy-nilly. Seemed a little more ambitious than your average petty thief, with the wings and whatnot.

Then there’s this whole deal... He refocused himself on the situation with the caveman and the scientist, and latched onto the pair of lamp posts on either side of the street, walking back a few steps before launching himself toward the attacker, slingshot-style.

Hey, Barney! Yabba-dabba-doo!

Turn 11

Ex-Current Encounter: Blizzard

Somewhere away from the Ex Blizzard Fight Scene Outskirts

Allen (Mysky)

> Look for any jobs to do around town

Roll to find a job: 4

You find a small cafe that needs a new barista. You just gotta pass the quick interview. They're asking you for your former experience.

Jewelry Robbery Scene

Winchester/Legit Hero (Awe)

> Fire your ray gun in Paralyze Mode one last time, then dive to cover.

Roll to fire the ray gun again: 6

You fire the gun and it hits a trash can, and it's so powerful you become numb as well. -1 to actions next turn.

The Outskirts

Trevor (Taco)

>Walk back to the cafe

Roll to walk back: 2

You find out one of your shoes is a bit stuck in the ice in the pavement.

Steve/Avalanche (Zorua)

>...Attack Blizzard more

Roll to attack Blizzard again while Darkness is looking at you: 4

You slap him with a small psychic hand. Darkness stares at you and gives you The Death Glare (TM).

   Avalanche. I thought you knew my ways. We do not hit the villain after they're down.   

Away from the outskirts

Budi (Fury)

>Take off my jacket and cap, then blend in with the nearest crowd

Roll to blend in: 1

You trip on the ground while trying to blend in. And since it's a crowd, no trying to avoid the fall. You take 2 HP damage. Current HP: 92.

Jewelry Robbery Scene

Ro/Projector (Tre)

> Give the scientist time to get away by doing a flying kick into the caveman

Roll to flying kick: 4

As you are in the way to kick him, you suddenly feel a bit more... fleshy. It feels weird, but you get better soon.

Uzalt/Grug (DeWit)

>use tech down on Ro.

Roll to tech down: 3

You use tech down, but it feels weaker. Also, the kid is going to kick you.

Roll to dodge: 2

The Outskirts

Yves (Bais)

> Leave, he look like a demon.

> Calligraffiti in another area with my blood.

Roll to leave: 6

You start leaving so quickly you don't notice a pole. You crash into it and lose 2 HP. Current HP: 87.

Roll to calligraffiti: 4

You calligrafitti "I am an ethical sin" in the wall with the blood you had.

Felicity (Leaf)

> unsheathe my claws and bare my fangs to look more intimidating

Roll to appear more intimidating: 5

You try to look more intimidating and you do. Darkness doesn't react to it, though.

   A simple crook. An unfaced robber. A cat burglar.    After a short beat, he continues.    A good heroine.   

Everyone at the Outskirts

Darkness turns his head around again.

   Avalanche. Do you have anything to say?   

Please do not engage in combat with Darkness. He is no normal NPC and will kick your ass.


Felicity and Steve are where they were fighting Blizzard minutes ago, and Darkness is there now. Trevor is stuck nearby. The Sun King is still walking away. Allen is at the cafe in an interview. Budi has tripped. Kenneth is at home doing his costume. Ro is attacking Uzalt/Grug. Alberto tried to stop Diniel from stealing jewels. Winchester is paralyzed. S.L.I.M.E. trapped Diniel, but he got out and fled. Uzalt/Grug tried to hit Ro but he got kicked instead.

What will you all do?

After careening through the air for a moment, the air around the caveman and Ro thins out with a smack as the digital boy’s hit connects, landing right as the early man launches an attack of his own. Ro skids across the pavement for a second before stabilizing himself with an aqua-colored palm, not too far away from the scientist.

The Projector looks down at his limbs for a moment, feeling a sudden weight to them that hadn’t been present in a long time — not since the accident, to be exact. The glow that his hands usually had when he generated stuff is still there, but it’s duller than usual, with more of his natural brown tone showing than usual. That’s... new.

He takes a second to make sure everything’s working right, thinking with all his might of a paper plane. The image is faint for a moment, more transparent than usual, but eventually the dart burns with a strong cyan glow, and Ro tosses it over to the tinkerer.

Everything good over here, dude?” he asks, paying particular attention to the smoky trail left by the scientist’s weapon, and his labored breathing.
