The Cooks seem to take the mind control... I take it you're using the instant version?


What is the next step?

Well I'd say the next step is to go get the two guards upstairs. Let's slip upstairs and go looking:

Guess I didn't spot them.

As the dreadstormers leave, the security guys ask "So can we tell everyone now?"



Daymar and Hua go up to the "downtown" area looking for the last two security guards. They find the two, having purchased some better food than normal and eating it. Pacifica and Nejora are lounging in the same small space.

"We'll be back with the other two guards in a moment. We'll outline further orders for the conclusion of this mission."

We got Nejora already, right? Right, she's loyal to Pacifica. Anyone else in the area (12C right)? I'll drop a note for Pacifica: "Distract the guards; we're about finished with this section."

What guards? Pacifica is on watch duty (AFAIK). When do you expect her to find the note?

How is she with Nejora atm?

With Hua's assistance to remain unseen, Daymar will try to subvert the last two guards.

As Pacifica finds the note, she slaps Nejora's back and shouts:

A COCKROACH!

The room turns to look, and Nejora stands up and turns around frantically a few times "get it off, get it off!"

Daymar takes the opportunity to touch first one, and then the other security member. He thinks both mind control attempts worked.

The room is in an uproar for just a few moments, then everyone sits down twitchily and with a paranoia completely independent of dreadstormers.
