"We gotta get outta here!" Ethel shouts, "It's goes through the skin!"

Supporting Butch if necessary, she will get the heck out of the room asap.

Ethel sprints over to stop the airflow anyway she can before looting the dead for weapons and ID.

Ethel quickly dons the gas mask as she runs over, attempting to get a shot in at the loadmaster (uncanny shot at head).

"BUTCH!!!"

Heart racing, Ethel attempts to drag Butch out of the line of fire, then inject him with the supercoag in her pocket.

"Fark!" Ethel cries out, deciding to either run down the stairs to follow them or try the elevator, whichever on a cursory look would seem to go faster.

"OH yeah, right! That could be important..."

Ethel rushes to any dead/unconscious bodies in the vicinity to loot them for the gas masks (or other valuables) and rushes back to support.

Trying not to lose momentum, Ethel slides open the door and shoots at the first thing she sees.

"Butch, come on!"

Heart racing, she sprints over to the loading area door on the far right (or middle if she can't make it across in one round.

Ethel answers Butch with a grunt and an uncanny shot at the man's head with her working pistol.

Using the time to have aimed her shot, Ethel phases into action, shooting at the leader with a called shot at his head (luck if necessary) and goes on to shoot him once again with a surge.

"Quick Butch, hide!"

Ethel scampers off to find a good hiding spot that allows her to at least see the incoming men, but still maintain cover.

"N-no," she stutters out. "Not really, anyway. Shouldn't mean much anyway, right? Seems like a dumb way to incriminate yourself if it was something you could trace back."

Grabbing the C4 in a way as to not trigger anything, she lets out a sigh of relief. "So what now?"

"Yeah, that ain't good at all..." Brushing her hair aside in frustration, Ethel begins to wonder aloud. "Why the heck would they be trying to do this? Doesn't have anything to with Bensen, right? Agh..."

She snaps a picture of it all with her phone, then situates herself to begin disarming the C4. "Wish me luck, Butch..."

What the fark, Dad?

Ethel bites her lip, "I dunno, Butch... If I mess this up then the whole thing goes kaboom. Maybe. Don't want to rely on luck like that last time." She tries to analyze what this bomb is supposed to blow up, trying to look at what is storage-d.

"Ugh, shoulda uploaded some search protocols." Butch mutters.

"Ethel, any specific part of the Aft that would be where they should blow it all up?" He asks, as he heads towards the aft and starts looking.

"The elevator?" Ethel shrugs, "Dunno, man. Gotta look through most of it anyway, I think..."

"Err, right. Sounds like a plan..." Ethel says, not entirely convinced of the plan, but amused by Moonkit and Tubb's bonding friendship.

"I dunno, Butch, but if you really think we can bypass security with just desguises, then I'm game."

"Nerd," Ethel teases the Gilbert, extending her tongue at him. She pauses  a bit after Crystal expresses pain, eventually choosing not to follow it up.

"Dangit Jacob, that's my thing!" Throwing her hands in the air, she follows the rest of the crew to the next videogame, keeping an eye out for Benson meanwhile.

Worse yet, the ending scenes barely differ. Somehow, W3 is even less linear than the new Fallout, which is surprising haha.

Fallout wins on stuff to do total, exploring; the like, plus it's an easy-to-play FPS game with some cool sci-fish things, but it's so lackluster as to what I expected. I think I liked the first Fallout's overall better, even, since it was much more climactic and interesting by the end. Not too mention [some] sidequests actually mattered in the ending graphic. Dialogue is odd because you really don't know what your char will say (choices show vague fragments of what you want to say). Still a really fun game though. Very easy despite on Very Hard settings, less because of the early power armor (which I didn't really bother using until the finale) more because equipment will most of the time directly alter your attributes, so even with a dump-stat of Charisma you can pass nearly all checks (with reloading once or twice).
Not gonna Chris/whine about it, but it definitely could have been better. Need to play New Vegas haha.

Which companion was that? Lol. Thankfully some of the companions are actually fun to have around, though the NPCs (as expected) pale to something like Witcher.

Fallout 4 and Witcher 3.

Played through both games, and gotta say Witcher 3 beats F4 by a long mile haha. Both amazing though, the latter a bit disappointing.

Neato quiz about how evil you are. I am 'Moderately Nefarious', apparently, with a lot of machiavellianism and slightly lower than average narcissism and psychopathy. Takes three minutes-- interested to see the results (even if they are bound to be bogus)

Considering that the rest of the crew are dealing with the 'real' space-pirates quite well, Ethel leaves the shooting to Tubbs knowing she'd do a better job, staying in the Hangar at-ready with Jacob.

Being fairly useless while in the ship, Ethel will hide near the ship's entrance in case they try to board.

Ethel turns to the comms, telling them what she found.

"So most research-crews are willing to pay half for the seeds, but DARKTECH matches it with full price, so better that than the Black Market, right?"

A bit uncertain, she adds, "Uh, guys, we should probably give one of the seeds to the original researchers, I think. Thoughts?"

While keel-hauling in outer space is perhaps one of the scarier things Ethel has considered, she lets out a sigh of relief in response to his apparent easy-goingness.

"Of course not, sir! Yes sir!" Saluting in an exuberant, silly fashion, bidding adieu to the captain. She will then consult her phone, checking  her scientific sources as to deals regarding Lotus Angel seeds.

"I'd assume you already know, with your supercomputer and all..." Ethel grins, "but the basic shtick makes sense, y'know? We're on a ship with two... Abnormal characters. One is particularly interesting, and research regarding the phenomena is pretty weak. Decided to help out with that, hurting no one in the process. So, uh, everyone wins, right captain?"

"Well, yeah. Dad sends me some weird stuff. The old man thinks he some sort of badarse, so his company sounds pretty weird."

Ethel shrugs, "Nothing to do with the secret society though. I think. My dad is pretty weird... Huh." The girl forces a chuckle. "I suppose I shoulda warned you about it first, sorry captain."

37

Agh, not the 'secret society' drivel again... Wait, what?

"Uh..." Ethel stutters for a moment before answering, "Uh, I'd love to, but I didn't get anyhing from the secret society... Thing."

"Wanna elaborate cap'n?"

"Yes sir?" Ethel follows the captain to the bridge, readying herself to be confused as to what he'll say.

"Yeah, kid has no place with us." Ethel agrees, her eyes fixated on the seeds. "Might as well give him back to wherever he's from, but as for these things... If we sell them to a good research team we can pay back a lot of debt, not to mention help humanity while we're at it. So why not?"

"Woah, hey guys, this is pretty wack."

Ethel goes into detail about what she remembers about it, but the main gist of it is what she says at the very end; "... So it seems like the snake ate a really expensive plant from Venus. We could make a lotta money if we get it to poop it out or something."

Ethel joins the rest of the crew in Crystal's room, a bit confused as to what's going on. "That snake is seriously messed up... Lemme check something..."

Taking out a Diagnostic Scanner, she lazily waves it directing at the people in the room before focusing on the snake.

"Uh... No?"

Her eyes shift nervously before focusing in, "No, I'm not sure what you're talking about, but, uh, that's nice, Cillian. I'm doing fine, just a bit tired is all... " Should prolly pay more attention when I'm walking, right?" She releases his hand, knowing full-well she's not good at masking the truth.

Releasing a yawn, Ethel turns around, not facing Cillian anymore, noting absentmindedly, "We should get going to breakfast, right..."

"Oof, sorry about that!" Seeming a bit distracted, Ethel herself is nearly thrown off balance, but manages to stay up. "I'm alright," she laughs, "but you look like you need a hand," and holds her own out as she says so.

Seeming a bit on edge herself, she asks, "You in a rush or something?"

Ethel returns to the group, a bit flustered. "So the ghost was just a stow-away kid... That's cute. But why are they looking for you, Brownie? Am I missing something?"

She yawns, stretching her arms out again. "I mean, they're also looking for the uncle. So what'd you two do?"

"Aww man, so there is someone on the ship?" Ethel suddenly sobers, her movement less shaky. "We gotta rat 'em out, guys, but like, in groups, maybe. Wouldn't want them to get the drop on us or something, right?"

So if I was breaking into an inhabited ship, where would I hide... She scratches her head, then heads to the living space, and from there to the laundry room.

Darnit... Is everyone really up? Aggh.

Ethel groans, throwing off her blanket to quickly get her casual clothes on, then heaving her backpack over her shoulder in case there really is some one on the ship. "C'mon guys, you're starting to scare me. Whuz' goin' on?" Rubbing at her eyes, she lumbers out of her room and dozily makes her way in the direction of wherever they keep Cyril.

"Guys, like, if we have some animal in the vents just raise the heat. That'll flush 'em out. This ship can do that, right?"
