Sascha advances through the ship!

HP: 17/20
Military Weapon: +1 DMG
Trinkets:
3/3 Defense Style A: 2 damage is detracted from last incoming attack.
1/1 Defense Style B: Nullify damage from the last attack.
Telekinesis: 2/2 Offensive Style B: Attack does double damage, and detracts 1 health from opponent every remaining turn. Recurring damage effect stacks.

"No, no! I'd hate to get in the way of your fun," Sascha said with a wave of his hand. He peeled himself off the wall he'd been leaning against. They were nearly a quarter of the way to their destination and his sleeves were still clean. Mostly.

Sascha took several loping steps until he'd returned to the front of the pack.
"The daywalkers here are unusually tame... At least for what I'd expect of the Battleship Condescension. No crazy mutants, or fire hazards, or gerbils. I was at least expecting... I don't know. Piranhas? Even the space tower back on Alternia had piranhas." Sascha continued to mumble as he meandered down the corridors, checking around each corner for something, anything of interest.

"You're right, it's pretty quiet." Cerpin mused over the lack of insanity on the ship. The daywalkers were obnoxious but nothing at all like the hordes of undead gerbils or the slime lusii that populated the smaller ship. He looked to Sascha, then Tevini, then back to the yellowblood again.

"So you don't have to use those powers of yours. Good." The purpleblood smiled with an obvious warning tone to his voice. He was going to keep a close watch on the two psionics. It was frustrating that he had no control over if they overdid it or not. All he could do was see the blood seeping out of Sascha's eyes and nose and curse the idiot for pushing himself. It was an odd day on Alternia for Cerpin Sugall to advocate against recklessness. He was less worried about Tevini using hers but at the same time, more worried that she knew even less about her limits. ********, this s**t was so frustrating.

"Hey, this door's open. Maybe we can find some supplies." He nudged Etsali's back lightly with an elbow. She was the best at pillaging and probably the most excited for it. The orangeblood had the fastest sleight of hand he'd ever seen before and he had no doubt that he'd probably lost a couple of beetles without knowing it every time he saw her.

"Mm." Tevini simply didn't acknowledge Cerpin's words, ignoring them. After Sascha's call out in their earlier talk, she was aware she needed to be more careful with her powers... but at the same time wanted to show him she could handle them. The yellowblood's presence was a conflicting one for her- she was uncomfortable around him due to his obvious suspicion and distrust of her. But she was also happy because this was a chance to show him what she was capable of. But then she didn't like Cerpin spending more time with the lieutenant and deepening his feelings. Nor her own.

At the same time she wanted him to be happy.

Checking the computer monitor in the next room, she left the actual looting to Etsali. The orangeblood was much better at quickly appraising things. Searching for anything useful, she opened a log and paused to read it over.

"W-what's this?" The redblood squeaked, startled by the aggressive and angry tone before her. As the others crowded in to take a look, she stepped back and recorded it as discreetly as she could, to report it back to Byakko later.

Sascha investigates the hall... and finds zombies!

Sascha rolled his eyes at Cerpin's comment. "You've seen me use my powers like a dozen times. My head is not going to fall off my shoulders." In response, Sascha levitated the contents of the box he'd been rooting through. He had no idea what any of the mechanical pieces were. They spun in a dizzying little orbit before being dropped unceremoniously back in their crate. Sascha wandered over to the ship log that had distracted him.

"Looks like history repeats itself," Sascha commented. He wasn't sure how he was supposed to feel about this new information. Vague concern was only one of the many emotions elicited by the report. He was starting to have brightmares about being buried neck-deep in tiny skeletons.

Speak of the devil, or at least various iterations of the undead. Sascha turned towards the far door as a familiar sight stumbled into view. "Heads up!" Sascha called.

"What the ********> Cerpin stared at the log in confusion. It wasn't quite what he had expected to find. Byakko would probably raise an eyebrow in disappointment if they brought this back. He groaned at Etsali's joke, exaggerating his reaction. The damn gerbils had been such a pain to deal with on the other ships and he was glad the juggalo captain had had the sense to ban them in the past.

"Not again." He readied his sword, about to leap into the fight when Tevini beat him to the punch. Had she always been that fast? He watched and let out a whistle of approval. The way she was taking charge in combat lately was somewhat-

NO. He looked away embarrassed, confused and angry.

Shots rang out as the oncoming zombies came into view and then left being. Their time on this world was over. Tevini lowered her gun once she confirmed the zombies were dead before glancing over at her teammates with a small smile.

"Nailed it." The smile didn't last long, as she considered the joke over and began to head down the hallway once more, stepping over the corpses.

Sascha wondered briefly if a zombie knocked him unconscious. Certainly he'd just hallucinated that whole segment of his life. Tevini could clean up shop and deliver cornball one-liners like a damn action star when she wasn't sniveling or causing problems. Sascha covertly pinched himself and slid back into frame.

"Ssssooo just past the absolute carnage is another store room by the look of it. Y'know. If we wanna check it out."

"What's in box number one?" Cerpin announced in his best game show voice. He ripped open a crate with flair to reveal... a stack of printer paper. Wow, lame. Moving on to the next one, he unveiled more and more generic garbage until he eventually just threw a box on the floor in irritation and boredom. The rockstar really ought to be taking things more seriously but he was trying to take his mind off heavier thoughts by goofing around.

"Ugh, it's all useles-" The final box spilled open to reveal an old med kit. Hey, that might actually have supplies in it. Cracking it open, he frowned as most of it was spoiled. The only thing they managed to scrounge out of it was an old bandaid covered in old cartoons. It seemed to be some kind of pop art of gerbils and read 'ANGRY GERBS' in colorful lettering.

"I think this is the best we're gonna get." He admitted, following the others out of the room.

While the others searched the room, Tevini moved to help them and unpack a tower of crates. It was mostly useless or unnoteworthy supplies for the most part. She didn't feel disappointed, just uninterested. As she looked over the remaining crate on the floor she realized. There was a door behind them.

"Wait! I found something." The redblood cleared a path to it. It looked a bit different than the others, like it'd been purposefully disguised to appear like the other walls. If someone hadn't wanted them to find it, it probably contained something they should investigate.

"What do you think?" She turned to the resident master thief. If anyone knew the risks of trying out a secret passage, it would be her!

Etsali wasn't just any lockpick. She was a master. The gap between them was painfully obvious now.

"Ah, um..." Tevini paled as the orangeblood performed a quick magic trick and then stepped back with a big grin. All eyes turned on her and the redblood began to sweat under the pressure. She had never tried to pick a lock like this before. Swallowing nervously, she reached over and tried to pick it only to flinch as the sound of something snapping clicked.

"... I think I broke it." Tevini finally admitted miserably after trying desperately to fish around and save it. She could hear everyone laughing in their heads after Etsali's wonderful set up.
