Re: MEDLAB 001

"Hey, nevermind those questions! I've got more important information I've gotta give you guys right now. So don't worry 'bout it, yeah? Just sit back and listen!"

What a nice, strange computer voice this is.

"Name's Control. Just Control, and I'm here to help. Command has been looking you guys forever! Look, you’ve got to move — you’ve gotta get out of there now. I’ve got a pin on your location and I’ve put a call through for extraction, all you need to do is make your way to the LZ. But … god, I’m sorry, you’ve got company. The Insurgents are there, too."

[Coming over to listen]

Insurgents? What are Insurgents?

Re: MEDLAB 001

[shiroganeheir]

[She feels like she's not very good at trusting people, so she looks at the computer dubiously.]

We need to know the situation before we go anywhere. What and where is the LZ, and who are the Insurgents?

If we are as important as you are implying, we cannot go in with nothing at all and in our pajamas.

Re: MEDLAB 001

[soulping]

The voice lets out a frustrated noise.

"Insurgents! Terrorists, bad news, you get the drift! Avoid 'em at all costs if you can, otherwise you might get hurt, and I'm here to prevent that. I don't have time to explain more or they'll get to you before you've got time to escape!"

"Whatever they did to your heads has really jumbled you all up, if you're asking what LZ means. It's Landing Zone. It should be beyond that locked door. Make your way out, and fast!"

There's a sense of urgency in Control's words.

Re: MEDLAB 001

[shiroganeheir]

Make our way out of a Locked door? Any chance you can open it for us, make things a bit easier?

[Seems she found some snark somewhere in there. Turning to the rest of the room, she raises her voice slightly.]

Hey, guys, whether we want to believe it or not, we're getting company. We probably should get the hell out of here at least. I don't think I trust this computer as far as I can throw it.

Re: MEDLAB 001

[soulping]

"Man, trust me, if I could open that door I would've done so already. Security on these computers is pretty tight. I'm just glad I got through this terminal and can let you guys know that help is on the way."

A huff.

"Anyway, I'll leave you guys to it. I'll be checking in every so often, so like, don't get killed, all right?"

Re: MEDLAB 001

[shiroganeheir]

Thanks for... not much.

[She sighs, and turns away from the computer.]

Alright. At the moment, getting out of here is probably the best option, either through that window or the door.

[She goes over to the door itself to examine it.]

Re: MEDLAB 001

[soulping]

"Hey, wait! One more thing."

You hear a sudden ping, and the following bluepring schematic appears on the computer screen.

"Here's your map. Blue is you, and red is your LZ. Wish I could do more, but hell, this'll have to work for now. Good luck!"

Re: MEDLAB 001

[robitussin]

We could find a way to break the window and head through it if we really don't trust it. There's some kind of office on the other side.

Re: MEDLAB 001

[shiroganeheir]

At the moment I think out is the best option, whether the door or the window. Can you look for something to break the window? I'll look for something to open the door with.

Re: MEDLAB 001

[robitussin]

My vote is for the window. I really don't trust that computer.

Would one of the IV stands work?

Re: MEDLAB 001

[femmefailtale]

That also seems smart.

If we had something to throw through it it'd be easiest...

[She looks over at the IV drip.]

...I could.

Re: MEDLAB 001

[robitussin]

That or the stool would probably be easiest to break it with. Wanna go for it?

Re: MEDLAB 001

[she_tried]

[You know what, I agree with you and am going to grab one of those IV stands. Maybe I can hit something with it.]

You're right, this is all too suspicious. But we should prepare to move.

Re: MEDLAB 001

[shiroganeheir]

Yes. That's important. If the thing is right and we do have people after us, we need to be able to defend ourselves. Can you find other things we might be able to use for that?

Re: MEDLAB 001

[robitussin]

How do we unlock the door?

Re: MEDLAB 001

[soulping]

"I don't know. You're gonna have to get creative. Maybe if you look around, you can find a key or somethin'. Or maybe another way out."

Re: MEDLAB 001

[robitussin]

Wow, so helpful. What would we do without you.

Re: MEDLAB 001

[femmefailtale]

...What if we...

Oh!

What if we blow up the door?

Can we do that?

Do we have explosives?

And who are you people?

Re: MEDLAB 001

[soulping]

"Hell! How am I s'pose to know if you have explosives?"

You do not have explosives.

Re: MEDLAB 001

[femmefailtale]

...Dang.

No explosives.

Re: MEDLAB 001

[she_tried]

I don't think any of us know who we are ourselves. Or... where to find explosives. Do you know how to make explosives?

[I kind of want explosives]

Re: MEDLAB 001

[femmefailtale]

I don't know how to make explosives, but I seem to know a thing or two about getting where I shouldn't.

Don't have what I need to pick a lock...

But the window would be best, then. Right?

Re: MEDLAB 001

[fairhands]

You realise that might end up hurting us too, right?

Re: MEDLAB 001

[femmefailtale]

We could hide in the pods. But there aren't any around here, so...
