[lucetimods]

Who: All draftees
What: The space battle commences
When: After 3PM on the 19th to the 23rd
Where: In Space! On the Moon!
Summary: The battle finally begins! First there's asteroids to take down, then we finally arrive!
Rating: SPACE

MORE SPACE

All the details you need are here, so read up on it. This didn't get mentioned before, but you can tag the cultists instead of killing them. Details on this are on a previous draft post. Using the scanners are optional!

There will be a thread for interacting with NPCs, but they may not all go up at once, so keep an eye out for them.

Note: A log for the events in the village will go up on the 21st, in time for the hurricane and droid incursion.

[Ow. Ow. Ow. Everything hurts. Billy somehow manages to squint over at the screen, though, taking a moment to read the letters. Wow... that's weird.]

Y... you're... [Blink. Bliiiink. ...Oh wow.] You're a robot...?

[blackflames]

[Yep, he is. Everyone seems to need to point that out right away. Canti manages the tiniest of nods, noticeable but not enough to disturb his passenger. Hopefully. Delicate stuff is HARD.]

[selfhelp]

[Huh. He... got rescued by a robot.

Another one for the record books, apparently. Then again, Vision's saved him plenty of times before, so is it really that different?]

Well... thanks for the lift. Guess I needed some help after all...

[blackflames]

[Robot rescues are one of the least weird aspects of this particular draft. And it's no problem. Canti would shrug, but that's not a good idea right now, so he simply nods again before turning his head to face forward again. They've reached the edge of the combat zone, so the airspace is safer. With barely a jolt, Canti lifts into the air to fly the rest of the way to the infirmary.]

[selfhelp]

[Billy just slumps back down again, feeling world-weary and a little dizzy. Better to just wait it out. Honestly, he's not sure why he can't just teleport there, but when he tries to mumble a spell, he feels nothing- absolutely nothing at all.

Where's his magic...]

[blackflames]

[What's he... You know what, never mind. That's not important right now. Curiosity can wait for a more reasonable time.

They're finally getting to the right dome; help is minutes away, if all goes well. With any luck, the medics will be ready for yet another patient.]

Hold tight, we're getting close.

[selfhelp]

[It takes more effort than he'd like to read the screen this time, but he manages somehow. Close to what, he's not sure, but... hopefully it means help.]

Where are you taking me...?

[blackflames]

[Billy's difficulty with the screen does not go unnoticed, which is why, instead of giving an explanation, Canti merely flashes a red cross onto his screen. Not entirely accurate, but the "hospital" connotation will hopefully carry.]

[selfhelp]

[Phew, that's a relief. Billy nods again, then decides it's a good idea to stop moving his head so much. Getting dizzy again.]

Um... 'kay. Thanks again. I'm Billy, by the way...

[He can't really brain for deeper conversation right now, oops.]

The end is near, then?

[blackflames]

[Name has been received: Billy. Saving that to the assigned folder. Loading... Name saved and linked to face.]

Canti. [Now it might be a good idea to stop chatting and hurry it up, before Billy passes out again. They're so close...]

lmao yeah he's gonna pass out

[selfhelp]

[Canti? A robot named Canti. Okay, noted. He tries to mumble something that sounds like "nice to meet you", but he's definitely hitting his limit. Might have to try and track Canti down later to thank him properly.

His priority right now is not throwing up on the robot's back.]

Ok, then. Double post has been fixed, too.

[blackflames]

[... Not a good sign, but he's already going as fast as he can without risking his passenger. The clinic is just one hall away.

Billy looks nauseous, but there's no indication that Canti is about to slow down. The thing about robots? They can be hosed off pretty easily.]

/o/

[selfhelp]

[Well, the plus side is that he's primarily not nauseous, just absurdly dizzy, and the jostling of Canti's movement, as well as the fireman's carry, is just making it worse. He closes his eyes to try and regain his focus, and ends up just passing out entirely.

Medic, please...]

[blackflames]

[That particular hold didn't impede movement and jostling was minimized by flight. But it's probably good that he passed out, because on arrival Canti stops suddenly, kicks the door open(but not off the hinges) and ducks to enter. After that, the gentleness with which Billy is set into a bed is surprising. After informing someone of Billy's condition, Canti checks the supplies and is about to leave when...]
