Week 4 event

[foundationmods]

INVESTIGATION (?)

Friday morning comes and goes with no dead bodies to discover. Saturday morning passes with no trial. For two days, it seems like the Lady might be keeping to her word. This might truly be a week of rest, with no outside trouble brought in.

(She takes no responsibility for the incident in the vents, so.)

But then on Saturday night, close to midnight, the sound cuts off throughout the resort. The cause of the sudden quiet is unknown, but one thing is clear: something bad has happened.

Investigate?


??? GUESTS REMAIN.

How about the Anti-gravity room? It'd be hard to move in once it's on.

[dolleyed]

If we can get it in there, I don't mind standing guard for the rest of the night.

[theycallhimmrpchan]

[He nods]

I'll join, two is better than one.

[tacticalespionageaction]

It felt like that thing was playing with me. I can pick up where we left off until it’s in there.

[dolleyed]

Can you actually outrun it? Else the risk sounds pretty high.

[tacticalespionageaction]

Most likely candidate. Could try to get a head-start too.

[He holds up the SOCOM. It might not do much, but it can gather attention.]

[xenoqueen]

I could try and help you out. Besides, having a team at the ready is better than working alone.

[dolleyed]

We need something on the ready to distract it in case it gets a hold of Snake...

[xenoqueen]

Cats like to follow anything that moves. I doubt the catnip is going to work again after it wears off, so I'll try to get my hands on something bright and colorful to get his attention.

[Like, you know, one of those feathery cat toys.]

[latebluemer]

... If you think it would help, I can lend you my D-board. That can give you a speed boost if you’re going to lure it.

[How are you with hoverboards, Snake.]

[tacticalespionageaction]

[See: MGS2 Substance.]

How fast can it go?

[latebluemer]

In here? As fast as you can go without steering into anything.

[It’s a fast-ass hoverboard, so it’s all down to reflexes.]

[13thpromise]

[ Since the tiger team came back with the injured... ]

...Lead to it with a trail of meat?

[theycallhimmrpchan]

Well I could-

[Someone better keep him from finishing that sentence]

[dolleyed]

... be bitesized and get swallowed up before ever getting there.

[latebluemer]

You better not finish that, Hibiki-kun.

[She looks very cross about this.]

[tacticalespionageaction]

No.

[theycallhimmrpchan]

[He lowers his hand without argument]

[13thpromise]

[ He looks kind of put out because he thinks he can figure out what he just said. ]

...No?

If a trail's being laid out, I don't see why anyone has to personally still use themselves as bait since you can leave before the tiger gets there in the first place, and hide. Then once the tiger's in the room, close the door shut.

[theycallhimmrpchan]

Yeah... I withdraw the idea, it wasn't as good as I thought it was.

[He rubs the back of his head]

[relentlesslyonwards]

[...]

We could try using some cat toys, but I'm not sure how well that'd go for the person holding them. Maybe something that makes noise would work, though.

[tacticalespionageaction]

[That gives Snake...an idea?

Unbuttoning his overshirt, he whips out a long arm of a gibbon.]

Think this’ll provide enough distance?

[relentlesslyonwards]

[damn, snake, warn people before you do this shit?? He looks vaguely alarmed for one hot second before he's more or less composed again, if still a little confused.]

Well... I guess it could? Maybe if we also got something on a long enough stick, too.

[time to improvise a shitty cat teaser...?!]

[tacticalespionageaction]

Get something fluffy to put on the end, too.

[relentlesslyonwards]

[After a quick call to the staff, looks like they've got... a fishing rod. And Rean's tying some kind of plush fish to the end because I say so ig!?]

Think this'll work?

[This seems really silly...]
