Scene 3: Tech Support Forum

*i puts some helium through the antimatter machine. Zorro quickly combines the few molecules of antihelium with Galactic Core and revives Delicious Vlish. Delicious Vlish wiggles his tentacles experimentally.

Delicious Vlish: Now this is exciting!

*i: That wasn't too bad. It only took two tries. Now, are there any others?

Arancaytar: Yes. Rakshasi has antigallium.

*i: Antigallium? Hmm. It could take a while to get some of that.

Zephyr Tempest summons some molybdenum. Zorro combines it with Galactic Core and revives Inthrall.

Student of Trinity: Since no one should go out alone, does anyone want to go to one of the game forums with me?

Dareva: Why? What do you need?

Student of Trinity: I need to gather some rocks.

Ben4808: For what?

Student of Trinity: As part of my new philosophy: when life gives you noobs, chuck rocks. You never know when life will throw a few noobs your way!

Ephesos: I'm almost out of herbs to make more energy potions, so Dikiyoba and I need to go to the Blades of Avernum Forum to gather some more.

Student of Trinity: Great! Perhaps I will pick up a sling as well.

Ephesos, Student of Trinity, and Dikiyoba exit.

Infernal666hate: Eye with got Geneforge demo-sleeve.

Infernal666hate picks up the three pieces of demonslayer and exits. Zeviz summons some einsteinium. Zorro revives Enraged Slith. Enraged Slith looks slightly blue and shakes violently after spending so long in the Miscellaneous Forum.

Enraged Slith: S... so c... cold...

Nick Ringer, Order Mage, Mr. Bookworm, Major, and a newb enter from the General Forum. Nick Ringer is carrying a few cans of beer. He walks over to Mysterious Man.

Nick Ringer: Were you the one who called me up and requested these?

Mysterious Man: Yes, but you're a little late. I already have some.

Nick Ringer: Oh well. I guess you won't mind if I drink them then.

Mysterious Man: Not at all.

GoldenKing walks over to them with a bottle of skribbane.

GoldenKing: one botle ov skribbane wont hurt naything

Order Mage: What's up, everyone? Why are you all here instead of in the General Forum?

The teenage fluffy turtle enters and bites Order Mage's ankle.

Order Mage: Ow! All right, all right. Here's my sanity.

The teenage fluffy turtle looks askance at the tiny slip of sanity it is offered. It eats it in one bite and then trots over to Major.

Major: What do you want? Oh, my sanity.

The Almighty Do-er of Stuff catches sight of the teenage fluffy turtle eating Major's sanity.

The Almighty Do-er of Stuff: One did survive! What shall I name it?

The teenage fluffy turtle trots over to the newb. The newb gives it his sanity. Order Mage hops over to Nick Ringer, holding his injured foot.

Order Mage: Why isn't the fluffy turtle biting your ankle?

Nick Ringer: Mr. Bookworm and I gave the fluffy turtle our sanities in the General Forum.

Order Mage rolls his eyes.

Order Mage: Well, good for you.

Randomizer drinks an energy potion and then summons some zinc, letting Zorro revive Desert Pl@h.

The Almighty Do-er of Stuff: I know! The fluffy turtle will be named Inspector Walnut!

Zephyr Tempest summons some gallium and hands it to *i. *i puts the gallium into the antimatter machine and turns it on. The machine grinds to a halt only halfway through the process. *i sighs, picks up a few tools and starts working on the machine.

*i: If you're not doing anything, you should go help clean up the Announcements Forum.

Lazarus: But...

Mysterious Man: Let's just go.

Mysterious Man stands up, picks up the beer, and exits. Most of the Spiderwebbers follow. Only Alorael (who is still writing the letter), the mages, *i, and Zorro remain.
