[Oh]

[Actually, yeah, this jacket is definitely his style. Even the smoky feel, he's used to smoke, and jackets are cool.]

Huh. I guess it's kind of like Hotel room. Special items do...something.

Re: NEMESIS

[idolpro]

[Perhaps!]

[In the courtyard, the clock chimes 1]

Re: NEMESIS

[protectshisown]

[Oh, time.]

[Okay, he'll take a look around. Cobalt is messing with display. Let's see, he saw Nemesis talk with this thing in her memory, can he get that radio active again?]

[Make a case and roll a die]

Re: NEMESIS

[protectshisown]

[All right, so he's seen Nemesis fight in a power suit from her own memory during the princess game. Which seems more intimate than just watching a screen so a better understanding of what she was doing, and he's got a good memory for being a Snoop.]

[So he'll sit in the seat and see if he can feel for where the radio was and get it active again to see if there's anyone who will respond.]

[Three dice. Two fails, one success.]

Re: NEMESIS

[idolpro]

[He flips some switches and turns some dials, though it mostly seems like static.

--No, wait. There's one channel that seems to just be a hum, like thousands of beetle wings buzzing--like an orchestra tuning up. It is hard to listen to it. It is hard to listen to anything else.

Roll Spirit to do...anything, actually,]

[Hey, Rye is just a zombie]

[What do]

Re: NEMESIS

[we_meet_again]

[Hmmmm Rye looks hypnotized.]

[Time to gently pull him out of the cockpit and away from the noise.]

Re: NEMESIS

[protectshisown]

[Is pulled out of the cockpit.]

[He snaps awake, gasping and shaking his head.]

....okay....

Be careful of radios, I think. Beetles? Bugs.

Re: NEMESIS

[idolpro]

[They chitter at the back of your mind, scraping scraping scraping]

[Anyway, who is up for ice cream or rides?]

Re: NEMESIS

[we_meet_again]

[ME!]

Re: NEMESIS

[protectshisown]

[WHAT THE FUCK NEMESIS.]

[Okay, okay, maybe. Move on for right now.]

[Until his head clears.]

[Where else is there to go?]

Re: NEMESIS

[idolpro]

[He can explore the park, or she can check out the castle!]

Re: NEMESIS

[we_meet_again]

Harbingers, probably? The big gross black things that come out of the sky.

They get in your head and make you crazy.

Re: NEMESIS

[protectshisown]

....ha.

Well.

[....fuck.]

I still kind of feel them, so I guess get ready to hit me over the head if I start getting like. Violent.

[I WILL NOT HIDE MY ZOMBIE BITE.]

Re: NEMESIS

[we_meet_again]

Yeah, same for me.

They sort of, like, amplify your greatest fears or something, and make you do stuff you normally wouldn't do. I'd say not to listen to them if you can help it, but... sometimes you can't help it.

If you see a creature that looks like an enormous black sky booger, try to dispatch it as quickly as possible. Also, watch out 'cause they're full of teath.

Re: NEMESIS

[protectshisown]

That is good advice, I'm not naturally afraid of flying black thing full of teeth. [Very sincere.]

Fears....okay, that shouldn't be too bad.
