Those are not words that people use!

@Nimda

They're all the same language that you're speaking right now.

[Nimda]

<Snipped quote by Server>

Well, first it’s gotta be decided whether or not you guys are even being considered. It’s not my call to make. I just live here, she leads this operation in particular.
*Looks to Faering*

@Valiance

*Crosses my arms and my eyebrow twitches, resisting a scowl*
...Fine. I won't turn down more firepower. But only if it's unanimous.

[Multifarious]

<Snipped quote by Multifarious>

Oh that was me, my bad.
*crosses my arms and groans*
yes...you did.

@Blabbo

Classic. Anyways, you ready to go?
*Pulls out a second remote and presses a button, opening a portal*

@Codify

That's not the point at all that I am making!

@Nimda

*Shrugs*
I don’t hate the thought for that reason alone.

*The shot blasts me feet-first through the side of the building, kicking up a storm of glass and fragmented pieces of the building's structure*
You can't pay for this kind of massage, baby!
*Flings an electromechanical spinner to your right, which boomerangs straight toward your neck*

@Host

*glances at the spinner, everything seems to slow slightly as I jump back barely dodge it and stares back at you with a detonator in hand, grinning*
Well this may cost an arm and a leg...
*presses it and the hole above you glows brightly, in a bright and erratic explosion a massive blast smashes intop you from all of the mines exploding in sequence from the top down*

*Shrugs*
It's a much sharper one than the one you're trying to make.

@Valiance

Sup?

@Valiance

And Chickpea proposed the idea, so I assume it's settled. Fine, we can take our group of five. But I'm only going out of my way to make sure that three of us come back.

@Multifarious

*gives a blank, unamused expression*
I'm going to repeat the question, but yes.

@Spiritblitz

*The explosion catches my off guard, rocketing me with several sequential thunks as I slam through lower and lower floors, eventually grabbing onto an elevator cable that erupts into a shower of sparks as I slow my fall, snapping halfway down*

He didn't get obliterated, did he?

@Blabbo

I took it. I know you're impressed.
*Walks through*

@Codify

*Glances quickly between all of you and throws up a peace sign*

@Nimda

60% can be considered passing depending on who you ask, so that's probably fine. The blonde one at least wants to be briefed first, though.

[Nimda]

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

Frankly, part of that depends on what you're asking.

@Valiance

We're engaging in combat with a cosmic beast before it awakens—I've found a way to its heart, which we're going to destroy. The chance that either of you perish is very real, and there are not words for how necessary it is that we succeed.

@Nimda

What makes something a "cosmic beast"?

@Server

To one end, its size. To another, this creature is not truly knowable, and does not follow the same rules that any of us do.

@Spiritblitz

*A near-unnoticeable speck twinkles near your face briefly before erupting into a consuming explosion of noxious gas, while the building continues to collapse on top of wherever I fell*

@Host

*looks at it right before it explode, flies away from the building with a smoke trail down into the city depths slamming into passing vehicles that are flying by on my way down until I crash into one from above causing it to fall with me and crash into the ground*
