==> Prepare room! Your name is CALI CONNER and the time has finally come for you to enter the medium yourself! After helping your friend through (because that's totally already happened at this point in time) you've been so excited about this process yourself! But you know what's coming, so first and foremost you'd better clean up some of your ROOM. At least that's what you call it, though by most definitions it's actually a fairly luxurious TREEHOUSE. Your real room is merely storage at this point. Your room is littered with your fairly standard INTERESTS. Your beast of a GAMING COMPUTER is there hidden behind stacks of VIDEO GAMES. Your open windows have become overrun with VINES and other such foliage, growing up and along your walls. You have them carefully trimmed so they don't mess up any of the VARIOUS MOVIE POSTERS you have posted. Of course you're already known to anyone who needs to know you, so there's no real need for a personal introduction. Especially since you're really excited to get this show on the road! So with a quick clean of the room, involving throwing many of your outdated computer games out the window and making your BED, you message your server player!

==> ZA: Be not busy.
Well, you can sort of do that. For some reason, the imps could now suddenly FLY. And it took more damage to kill them now too. Someone must have prototyped something REALLY GOOD for this. While this means more EXPERIENCE for you. It makes things more DIFFICULT for everyone else. This doesn't stop your Server from contacting you, ready to go. You get to your computer, pulling out a pistol from your JOKERKIND, using it to keep the flying imps at bay while you help your friend. [/center] ZA: I should give you a heads up. ZA: These imps are flying now. ZA: They have much higher defense now too. ZA: What the hell got prototyped? ZA: Oh, one more thing. ZA: We have a time limit. ZA: Before a meteor crashes into your house and kills you.

==> Load game! Alex is right, there is a time limit, which you were totally prepared for! Which is why you swept everything outside cleaned up before hand, to make room for everything! Not that your treehouse has enough room for the necessary deployments, in question. You load the game and connect, because that's totally the right thing to do! And then you wave over your shoulder, because your friend can definitely see you now like the trolls were able to! [/center] QW: Some skeleton thing. QW: I don't know, Venn had a lot of strange things! QW: Nothing I can't handle! QW: I've made some room here for the stuff before we started the timer! QW: Make sure to line everything up right. QW: I have ziplines that can get me between everything quickly! QW: But getting back to the treehouse is a bit harder!

==> ZA: Learn the ropes.
You turn around and quickly bring down another imp, giving you very little EXPERIENCE. You turn back, trying to figure things out. You mess around here and there, finding yourself in Cali's BATHROOM. Before there is a loud crashing sound coming from the bathroom of Cali's house. You PANIC a little, realizing that you've just accidentally ripped out her toilet. [/center] In an attempt to FIX THINGS you let go of the toilet, causing it to crash through the floor. As a result, you accidentally rip up the bathtub, and not wanting to cause anymore problems, end up flinging it. However, it goes THROUGH THE WALL and lands right side up in the living room.
Finally figuring things out however, you deploy the CRUXTRUDER in Cali's room, hoping she won't find out about the noises.

==> QW: Inspect Cruxtruder This thing is much more imposing in person! So much going on, but you don't have time to inspect it! This is life or death, and your reputation as a hardcore gaming chick is on the line here! You've seen Venn do this, so now it's your turn. No messing around! Oh, but before you start this countdown you'd best get some form of Pesterchum to take with you, as your BADASS MACHINE won't leave the desk.
Fortunately it has a wireless tablet attachment for those snack trips and whathaveyou, so you remove that and stuff it in the pocket of your coat. Then you retrieve your first bright green CRUXITE DOWEL and the Kernelsprite is revealed! [/center] QW: Okay! QW: I have this thing! QW: Now I need to . . . do stuff! QW: It was hard to follow Venn. QW: And this thing needs to stop spazzing out! QW: Make it stop, please! <3 QW: Where's the next device? I have nothing to prototype here! D:

==> CK: Send it all to shit.
You were alerted to the sounds of crashing and breaking. You MANRUSH into the living room to see your bathroom apparel ON THE FLOOR. You know what this means, Cali is playing SBURB. This is wonderful news! You immediately MANRUSH up the stairs and break into Cali's room. Upon seeing she is not in her room, you discern she is in her TREEHOUSE.
With a MIGHTY LEAP, you leap the entire gap in a SINGLE BOUND. You don't aim for a window, you just BREAK THROUGH THE WALL. [/center] CK: CALI. CK: THEY HAVE DESTROYED THE BATHROOM. CK: BUT I SEE YOU HAVE BEGUN PLAYING THE GAME. CK: WORRY NOT, I WILL KEEP YOUR COMPUTER SAFE. CK: NO HARM WILL COME TO IT. CK: NO MATTER THE COST. It is now that you notice that a sprite is TRYING TO BE A DOUCHE BAG and ATTACK CALI'S COMPUTER. You agreed to keep that SOB safe and you have every intention to hold yourself to that. Letting out a loud war cry, you rush towards the sprite, not even noticing that you may or may not have bowled over Cali in the process. You reach out to deliver the first blow. You make CONTACT.
One flash of light later, and you're gone, mostly. You look more green though.

==> ZA: Flip the fuck out.
While that is something you are above. You are not above being stunned into silence. You had been bringing the Punch Designix into Cali's room when Bear burst in through the wall with his MIGHTY LEAP. He rushed into the room and... ran right into the kernelsprite. [/center] You turn around to face the newly prototyped imps.
They're now utterly massive and muscular, in addition to being able to fly and shoot lasers.
Goddammit.
You drop the Punch Designix onto Cali's floor as gently as you can, then send her a message.

==> QW: Close mouth! Because your jaw hit the floor when you realized exactly what had happened. In Dad's typical grand manner he burst in and immediately jumped into the Kernelsprite. If there was time to spare then you'd probably mourn your father or something, but right now you had to get to the Punch Designix. So you hop onto the zipline that closed the gap between your TREEHOUSE and your HOUSEHOUSE and into your original room. [/center] QW: Oh no? What happened? QW: Wait, hang on, need my hands.
==> Punch cards This part is easy. Get codes, make things. Namely making your computer more portable. Fortunately you have your TABLET and your GOGGLES handy, so you captchalogue them both. You also get the code for the vines you carry as weapons and utility tools, because you never know what kind of neat things you can make. And the code for a few of the video games you keep handy, because not all of them are cheap enough to just throw out of a tree. Then, using your mad parkour skills developed from years of living in a homemade jungle you hop your way back to the treehouse. [/center] QW: I need that Alchemiter, I want to have so much fun with this stuff! QW: Alex? QW: Is everything okay on your end? QW: My timer's started please be okay!

==> ZA: Continue Deploying.
You aren't busy but you have to make this fast. The new imps are out of control. This is bad, this is real bad. You hurry along, dropping the totem lathe and the alchemiter. Cali seems to GET THE IDEA, so you doubt you have to worry. [/center] ZA: You can figure it out from here, right? ZA: I have some serious problems to take care of. With that, you turn away once again, pulling out your swords as you stare down at the imps.

==> QW: Figure it out from here Okay, you have all sorts of crazy stuff. But there's also a ticking timer. You need to figure out what to do from here and then work on making all your neat stuff. You do take a few seconds to do everything necessary to alchemize your TABLET with your GOGGLES so you have a computer on the go. You add the current timer the HUD the GOGGLES give you.
After getting everything ready to skip a long and unnecessary description you still have almost thirty seconds left. You're good at games, after all, and you were all ready for this! You turn some of the cruxite into a POTTED PLANT, pick it up and hurl it at the wall, shattering the pot.
Last one in rarely rushes. [/center] QW: Okay I'm in! QW: Time to make some sweet loot! QW: Now that I'm not rushed! <3
