"Ow...Sorry. Hey, what's this you got here?"
> SNOOPSNOOPSNOOPSNOOPSNOOP

Aftermath sounds depressing and extra serious, olo.

In the not too distant future. On a tired jungle battlefield. Blurs have become routine.

First thing that came to my mind.



Use Hyper-focus and Rageface to align the bones in my leg.

From the renaming or from my little quote?

I would SO use that if it wasn't so plot-predictive.

You have ~21 hours to go.

ROLL INCOMING

Hyperkultra (4) Fiona Lovagale
"Ow...Sorry. Hey, what's this you got here?" Fiona asks as BJJ picks up the Silver Case.
YOINK
"Hey! That's mine!" He complains.
Fiona cocks her head, stabs a section on top, and the case splits in two lengthwise. She spins the top clockwise, pushes it back down and flips the whole thing over. On the bottom, an outline of a square is glowing.
"Huh. It didn't do THAT before." BJJ says.
"Tricks of the trade." Fiona replies.
She pushes the square in with her palm and it fluidly rises with a hiss. The sides extend in all four directions and a blue mists rolls out. Inside, under faint cyan lighting, are two hand-sized, sharp-angled shapes.
She reaches in, pulls out the two pistols and examines them. They seem like regular Desert Eagles, but have linear accents of light blue, and small blades running down the bottom of the barrels. Also nestled in the case, now obviously filled with foam, are four magazines. Quick check of the Desert Eagles confirms a total of six magazines.
Fiona grins.

caekdaemon (4) Bob Jameson Jones
BJJ winks twice with his right eye and the Scouter switches to Night Vision Mode. He grabs the Silver Case from where it landed.
"Ow...Sorry. Hey, what's this you got here?" Fiona says as he picks it up.
YOINK
"Hey! That's mine!" BJJ complains as Fiona snatches the Silver Case from his grasp.
Fiona cocks her head at the case and stabs, spins and twists it around like a rubik's cube. She turns it over and he sees there is a blue square glowing on it.
"Huh. It didn't do THAT before." BJJ says.
"Tricks of the trade." Fiona replies.
She pushes the square and it rises up with a hiss and some mists, then she takes out two hand-sized objects from inside. She quickly examines them and puts the now-opened Silver Case on the ground.
Shiny. She grins.
BJJ scolds himself for not figuring out the box earlier.

FoiL (4+2=6) Andrew Rodrigues
Vladimire groans and holds his head, but he's not puking or screaming in pain, so he's obviously fine. Andrew sits down and examines his leg. There is a definite, agonising bump about an inch below the knee; the break. Andrew clenches his teeth and focuses on nothing but emptyness for a few seconds, then numbly places his hands on the bump and gives a quick but forceful shove. Outside of the emptyness he registers extreme pain from the act, but he doesn't batt an eyelash. His leg, however, won't be able to be used properly for at least half an hour due to the pain.
He cannot 'hear' anything from Vlad from inside the 'emptyness'.

Ociamarru (3) Vladimir Ivanov
Vladimire just sits there to rest and wonders what that stuff did. His whole body is tingling and the spot where the muzchrum? landed on his face is warm to the touch. As he rests, his vision wavers slightly around the edges and his arm twitches indepentantly.

Point.Blank (5) Asfer
Fiona is playing around with a suitcase or something, and BJJ is watching. Asfer gets fed up with the wait, so he puts the Scientist back on his own feet and moves past the two to the collapsed wall. Sunlight is streaming through, so it's obviously just light rubble. Asfer puts his shoulder against the wall and pushes. With the combined strength of himself and the Exo-Suit the wall shifts, then collapses even further, but outward, creating an opening in the hallway to outside.
SIXTH SENSE: Asfer notices that there are three men in a small group near a toppled supplies truck. One is standing, the other two crouching. They do not notice him.

Game Events
The time is 5:30 am.

Hints:
Tiredness can be stalled with caffiene or similar suppliments.
Weird effects are not always negative.

:3
"Aww, you shouldn't have! You know just what to get a girl."
> :3
Okay, back to robo-man.

When can we expect the other five rolls?

Also, YAY BALANCE! (I dunno, though, is that really enough for Fiona?)

:3
NOW we're getting somewhere!

@Ociamarru: It will be enough. As soon as she uses/examines them further, all will become clear.

Rest for 3 turns.
WAIT NO SCREW THAT I WANNA KNOW WHAT HAPPENED TO ME!

Search the area for my gear some more, try and see if anything feels different now that I just chugged an unknown chemical - possibly a muzchrum.

Not chugged, but eh. Same dif. Good plan.

@Point.Blank: Good work staying in-character.

>I would SO use that if it wasn't so plot-predictive.

It's also pretty much stolen
