>Welcome to Bioweapon quest, a game which is (mostly) about small scale tactical combat, and getting deadlier.
>Don't be afraid to jump in if you are new!

You are a creature of simple desires. You desire to eat things. With every delicious thing you eat you grow, morph and change.

You are currently climbing up an elevator shaft. At the top is a man that your creator has promised a delicious reward for killing. You love eating delicious fleshbags, so you had no objections at all to agreeing to this arrangement. You are not in perfect shape, however. A creature you fought (and ate) before managed to slice off your antennae, and your sense of smell is still recovering. Your bioweapons are feeling a little empty. You know the man is aware that you are coming for him, so it might be best to be prepared or at least gain some advantage before you attack.

As you near the top of the shaft you hear a strange noise from behind the elevator doors: A short, coarse roar. It seems similar to the sound of a blowtorch, your stolen memories tell you, but that seems out of place in the corporate office building you're currently climbing. It also sounds Delicious.

From above you, on the top floor, you can hear a feminine voice talking, just on the edge of hearing.

>What do you do?

>I had to move it because it was getting a little long, but I miss having it in the thread for easy reference. Would it be worth putting a simple list here and leaving the descriptions for the pastebin?

>Hyper Reflexes - [2/2]
>Deadly Neurotoxin - [0/2]
>Thrown Spit - [1/2]
>Papermaking - [1/1]

>>26479461
Helloooo Toque~
>>
>>26479461
Well hello there delicious! I missed the last three but not this one!!!!!
>>
>>26479439
Mmmm, fun stuff. Let's try to get a little closer. See if we can get close enough to make out what she's saying without revealing ourself.
>>
>>26479439
Wait I'm confused.
I thought we fixed out smelliscope and healed up some stuff last time?

Must be bad memory...
>>
>>26479461
And yes, I'd say so. Maybe just give descriptions for newly acquired or expressed biomorphs?
>>26479686
Healed up some stuff, but the antennae were still damaged.
>>
>>26479686
Our antennae (and thus our sense of smell) is partially fixed, not completely.
>>
You climb up to the top floor and press your head against the metal doors to the elevator. You can make out the delicious voice on the other side speaking to someone you can't sense.

"-yeah and like, the boss is making me stay late tonight... You know how it is... Yeah... He's expecting a guest or something... I don't mind, I get paid overtime for this... You wouldn't believe it! The 'hazard pay' is great!"

Below you the source of the intermittant gravelly roar passes by the elevator shaft on the level below you. Pausing to make it's noise every minute or so.

Your suckers are getting tired, you'll have to decide which floor to get out onto, the top floor or the one just below it. There are vents you can just barely squeeze into on each floor, or you could probably force the doors open, if you tried.
>>
>>26479716
>Force open the doors on the same floor as the voice, and make her earn her hazard pay.
>>
>>26479716
Well we're still sorta hurt...let's squeeze into the vents on the floor below, and eat this guy that's talking on the phone, maybe...

We're apparently still not as strong as I hoped, judging from how fucked up two guys made us.
>>
>>26479716
Let's make her earn her hazard pay.

...say, the voice is female....
>>
>>26479716
Force open door, consume.
>>
>>26479825
time to put that paper to use
>>
With a heave, you force the doors in front of you open and climb out into a large room. Behind a desk a few lengths away sits a spindly creature, with very thin limbs and cone shaped ears. The creature has three long limbs, two of which are tapping away at a keyboard, and another holds a device up to its head. Its ears seem to swivel and turn, as if scanning the room.

The doors close behind you with a ping, and the creature turns to regard you with an eyeless face.

"Oh hold on sister, it looks like the guest has arrived."
The delicious creature puts the phone down, somewhere beneath the desk.
"Welcome, I've got you listed for a meeting, just head right through those doors," The thing indicates a pair of opaque glass double doors to its left," but if you have a moment, the entry is mostly blank. Can I get your name and area code, just for customer service reasons?"

You notice the creature has kept it's third hand beneath the desk, reaching slightly awkwardly for something.
>>
>>26480074
paper her to the wall before she presses the panic button
>>
>>26479900
Hey, I say we sting 'er.
>>
>>26480074
Hm...Alright, they use ears to see like bats

Can we release a high pitched screech to maybe 'blind her'? And then rush over quickly to tackle her to the ground?
>>
>>26480118
>Papermaking creates wads of materiel that take a short time to dry and harden. You'll have to get close, and hold the creature to the wall before you can stick it there.
>>
>>26480159
This sounds like a plan to me.
>>
>>26480074
Could we 'ping' her with a frequency or loud noise to stun her, then paper her?
>>
>>26480203
I think that's what Cowboy is proposing, essentially.
>>
>>26480203
>>26480159
>Your current vocal range is that of either the human male who drinks a lot, or the soft lilting of the teddybear-esque creature you ate last session. You can certainly shout at it, but it won't be anything weaponised.
>Persue this course of action?
>>
>>26480074
"Your attempts to delay me are futile, female meat. All other meat in this building has been devoured. Now there is only you and the other.
I will devour him, take you, and abscond before the authorities are available. Please surrender now so that your reproductive organs are not unduly harmed in the transportation of your meat."
>>
>>26480242
Isn't that lying though? We're incapable of that.
>>
>>26480236
Well damn...let's...talk in the cute voice then and get closer. Chances are it has fast reflexes so we might need to use ours to catch it off guard.
>>
>>26480260
Technically no. We heard there was something like a blow torch that was delicious - and we know that not everything that is delicious is meat.

We don't actually know whether any of the remaining delicious outside of this room is meat or not. It's more like a lie of omission - which we should totally be able to do.
>>
>>26480236
yea! got off work early enough to get in soonish!. just tell her our name is delicious with the angle voice and that shed best not try anything funny. we dont like jokes....or clowns
>>
Using the cute half purring voice: "You are mistaken, I don't have an appointment. I heard about the diversity requirements this business has and was told to come here?"

Technically no lies in this one!
>>
>>26480074
Move towards her and do a sort of simulated bow and gurgle an answer to her question
Then go towards the doors

Once she lets her guard down paper her to the wall or rush her
>>
>>26480332
Seconding this one.
>>
You pause, not leaping straight onto the thing just yet. The creature's question confuses you, invoking some alien and unknown concepts. In your lilting voice, you speak out to the thing:
"You are mistaken, I don't have an appointment."
"You might not know it, but you do, it's written right here." The delicious thing indicates a glass faced box. How strange. You creep closer to it, watching carefully as its ears track your claws as they clatter across the tiled floor. You purr softly to the thing, using what you know about making a good interspecies impression.
"I heard about the diversity requirements this business has and was told to come here?"
"Well we do have quite an elaborate policy, what sort of special skills do you offer? Do you have any species disabilities that we need to know about before employing you?"

You have closed half the distance, but the delicious fleshbag still has its hand below the desk.

You are hungry. You want to sting things.
>>
>>26480512
"I can kill things. And eat them. And SHOW THEM ALL!"
>>
>>26480512
Let me show you *Spit posion at ears*
>>
>>26480512
"Well i am always ever so hungry, but i am a very at defusing fights." (both of which are not lies) keep a close eye one her other hand as we get closer, and be ready to pop reflexes at the first sign of trouble.
>>
>>26480576
very good*
>>
>>26480512
Let's take flight, since it can hear us...

Fly over to it
>>
>>26480512
"Yes. If I touch your hand, I can tell certain things about you. It's amazing. May I demonstrate?"
>>
>>26480605
You know that flying causes sound, right? Most bats hunt flying insects.
>>
>>26480631
Except that we can't lie.
>>
>>26480637
...oh...right.
Well fuck, I don't know then.
>>
>>26480646
It's not a lie. We can tell certain things - we can tell how delicious it is. The amazing part is an opinion.
>>
>>26480637
She can already hear us. A little extra sound won't hurt anything.

>>26480646
Hmm. That's not really a lie, I don't think. An extremely creative bending of the truth that I don't think we can pull off, though.
>>
>>26480646
But how many bones there are in a hand or what she tastes like. All are certain thing obtained from touching her hand with our mouth. It amazing
>>
>>26480658
...But it doesn't require touching whatsoever. That's just a blatant lie. We have no ability that correlates to touching that allows us to tell things about someone, other than what they feel like.
>>
>Don't be so worried about lying. >>26480631
would have worked, if only because you could have eaten her, then told her about herself.

"I can kill things. And eat them. And SHOW THEM ALL!"
The creature regards you for a moment, and subtly shifts her hand from one place to another under the desk.
"Really? I think that's all the information I need. How about you just go stand in this door over here," it indicates again, but this time to a small hatch in the wall, metal with orange triangles each with a black picture of a flame on it, "and I'll put you through to processing."

You walk closer to the delicious creature.
"I'm always ever so hungry. Let me eat you!"
You cough, bring a gob of corrosive bile up to spit at the things ears, and upon hearing the noise the creature pulls out a long barrelled weapon, two barrels gleaming. It raises it towards you, and in a panic you unfurl your wings and leap!

>Roll 1d100 for aiming and dodging!
>>
>>26480684
So....I vote for some vocal control for our next upgrade, who's game?

Ability to lie, whatever you wanna call it.

I'll tell you, I love Bioweapon quest

There's a little bit of stress here and there, but it's mostly good ol' fashion death and destruction and ruin.

No politics, no losing everything...just fleshbags weeping as we devour them whole

>>26480829
Thank you for being such a bro Toque

Rolled 45

>>26480829
hmm, aim for its arms and launch yourself at it.
>>
Rolled 50

>>26480829
Use reflexes to dodge when she fires next and then lunge and get her before she can reload again.
>>
There are two almight blasts, one after the other as the weapon fires at you, but you use your wings to launch yourself up and out of the way, digging your claws into the false roof above.

You try to fill your mouth with your neurotoxin, but your glands are empty! Quickly, you hurl the gob of spittle at the creature which hits the things ear, coating it in mucus. A small ring of metal pierced through its flesh starts to smoke slightly, but the creature itself appears unharmed.
>Projectile spit [0/2]

"Just get in the hatch, these bullets come out of my pay, you know!"

There is a metallic crunch as the creature forces two more shells into the weapon.

"Get in the hatch like the last one did. There's delicious things in it, I swear!"

You are hanging from the roof, your last attack seemed to be ineffective

>Roll 1d100 for whatever you do!
>>
Rolled 13

>>26480865
hmm, aim for its arms and launch yourself at it. Try to get the gun.
>>
Rolled 86

>>26480865
That spit is just metal eating, isn't it?

Shoulda hit the gun...

Anyway, can we kick ourselves off the roof, and bound over the desk and disarm her? Metal sticks hurt us a lot, especially when they appear to be shotguns.
>>
Rolled 39

>>26480865
Activate hyper reflexes.

Keep jumping around the room, don't stop moving. wait for it to reload, then strike.
>>
>>26480865
"Last thing wasn't as clever as me. I probably won't even kill and eat you. Just sting."
>>
>>26480865
Bounce off the walls and roof as we approach her and pounce on her disarming her
>>
>>26480865
"ah yes flesh sac, my predecessor was weak minded! LIKE YOU WILL BE With OUT YOUR HEAD!" face chomp!
>>
>>26480919 changing mine to spiting the gun melt the barrel
>>
Rolled 46

>>26480940
We don't have any more spit.

>>26480883
Yeah..launch yourself TOWARDS the weapon. That's a great idea. just put your face right next to that barrel.
>>
Rolled 64

>>26480865
I am stronger then it. *Bite down on her ears, RIP AND TEAR*
>>
>>26480865
"Then stop shooting at me and talk."

then >>26480908
>>
"Then stop shooting at me and talk."
The delicious thing tilts it's head, still facing you as it stands up on its three legs.
"Last thing wasn't as clever as me. I might not even kill and eat you. Just sting sting you."
"Don't even try it, I sent the bloody memos about the other ones, I know you can't be trusted. Weapons through and through."

The creature swings it's gun towards your voice. You kick yourself off from the roof, powerful leg muscles propelling you. You follow a short arc around the fleshstick, the gun following. You activate your hyper reflexes, and right when you see the spindly creature pull the trigger back with it's elongated fingers you heave with your wings and changing direction mid-air.
>Hyper reflexes [1/2]

The blast etches out a pattern in the floor where you would have landed, and you go sailing through the air to slam bodily into the female. It reacts quickly, swinging its weapon around to bludgeon you, right before you hit it.

You both go tumbling across the tiled floor, and when you gain your feet again, it stands above you, weapon held by the barrel in all three arms as it brings it down to hit you.

>Roll 1d100 for whatever you do!

Catch the gun, and use the leverage to pin it. Luckily, the idiot is putting the trigger right in our hands.

Can we spit our papery stuff now? At the least it would distract her.
While she's distracted, bite her hand and force that gun away!
>>
>>26481150
Rush her, get in under her swing and disarm her. Literally

Then eat her, stinging her might be interesting but that hearing sounds better
>>
Rolled 17

>>26481150
Skitter between her legs and knock her down from behind!
>>
Rolled 18

>>26481224
I like this plan. The problem is that its single shot only.
>>
Rolled 71

>>26481150
eat the gun if possible, if not,roll with the blow so it glances off, than bite her ankle, the pain should be enough to elimante the threat
>>
>>26481150
Whenever we're not so busy as to be fighting for our lives:
"Used to be weapon. Used to feel nothing but hunger. Now feel something else too."
>>
>>26481246
Eh. We still have control of the weapon, either way.
>>
>>26481224
It's a breech-action shotgun and not loaded. Besides, I thought we wanted to sting her, not kill her.
>>
>>26481273
Eh, loaded or not, it's in our hands and not hers.
>>
>>26481234
You know we can eat her whenever, right?
>>
>>26481342
Well, in all fairness, immediately eating her would largely defeat the point of stinging her. Since, y'know, as far as I'm aware, a corpse can't gestate anything.
>>
You raise a forelimb to the weapon as it swings toward you, grabbing it in your digits. The blow turns out to be really weak, despite that the thing was striking with all of its limbs. You grip tightly with your suckers and wrench the thing out of the creature's pitiful arms, nearly knocking it off balance.

"Used to be weapon. Used to feel nothing but hunger. Now feel something else too."

The delicious thing backs slowly away from you, its three legs getting ever closer to its desk. It holds it's hands in front of it.
"Oh, and what else do you feel? It wouldn't happen to be mercy, would it?"

You recall that the gun shot twice the first time she pointed it at you, but only once the second time. Perhaps you could make it fire?
>>
>>26481403
You mean our stomach can't gestate anything.
>>
>>26481454
"Stinging things, mostly. Do you have a stinger, or a stinger-hole?"
>>
>>26481454
"Creatures I ate knew it as love."

Hilarious, and partially true. We now feel the desire to reproduce.
>>
>>26481454
Now feel desire to sting, show our stinger

Then eat her anyway, we need that hearing
>>
Patience is for meatsacks. We should just eat her, we haven't seen another like her before and she's Delicious.
>>
don't let it near the desk. try to shoot at it while leaping.
>>
>>26481454
Alright, let's fuck her brains out

...uh, for mutant propigation reasons.
>>
eat the gun and use it to make the paper, stick her to the floor, we will be back later
>>
>>26481482
Oh my god this

this is too fucking good
>>
Guys its kinda pointless to make more of ourselves when we can't control them. No matter how much you guys want to unleash our progeny at people.
>>
>>26481556
Fair enough
Fuck her brains out THEN eat her.
>>
>>26481556
Well if they don't work out we can always just eat them.
>>
>>26481556
Having an uncontrolled spawn running around would be a good thing for us. It would help cover our movements. Nobody would expect us to attack A when our spawn is fucking up D.
>>
>>26481556
What are you talking about? Chaos is good!
>>
>>26481556
It's actually a good thing! We can send them out to cause chaos and those that survive to have a few upgrades on them will be DEVOURED to acquire the upgrades that they acquired.
>>
>>26481605
>>26481641
>>26481672
Not if they try to eat us. Gotta remember they'll have our Hunger. And we most likely smell Delicious.
>>
>>26481687
Excellent! What better way to show our dominance then to fight and eat our offspring!
>>
>>26481605
And this is why I wanted us to get more control over our spawn, instead of whatever useless biomorph we got instead.
>>
>>26481687
Considering how careful we have to be to not die, they'd probably die to a security guard.
...or give OP a DMPC
>>
>>26481706
Now we paper her down?
>>
"Stinging things, mostly."
"Stinging? You're going to fill me with venom, wait until I go all runny and eat whatever's dribbles out?"
"Yes."

The six limbed creature turns and makes a run for the desk, but you run after it and push it into the desk, with your claws on its neck.

"Creatures I ate knew it as love." you say, in a lilting whisper.
The thing blinks at you.
"Or lust. It's hard to tell."
The delicious creature just stares at you for a moment.

"Wait, that's all you want?" The creature visibly relaxes. "You know, I've sucked off far worse things then you to get here. At least you're honest, and not a lying arse like my boss.

With a snarl you tear off the thin fabric covering the thing's genital slit and, after a few misses, stab at it repeatedly with your stinger. After a few moments you inject it with your venom, and pleasure courses through you. Similiar to when you devour things, but different in its own way.

The world seems a little bit hazy, and much more vibrant. It is difficult to stay steady on your feet, and your stinger hangs below you, bare to the world and slightly tender.

Below you, the stung creature makes a circular motion with its ears, but remains still.

Well, there's a reason for that. People generally hire female receptionists because a) people expect receptionists to be female, and b) females are generally considered to have a more 'friendly' appearance. It's the same reason 'bitching betty' is a female voice.

>>26481917
pity we can't use this to drain her of sentience. We'd leave a living mindless shell that would gestate our young with no objections or ways to prevent it.
>>
>>26482019
It would take time to eat her desk. Time she'd probably use to abscond anyways. Just let her go.

And, y'know, go eat her delicious asshole of a boss.
>>
>>26481992
first off, yes. secondly we haven't used our paper, we tried using our venom but we don't have any left. if your going to assume we don't have something go and find it the quote it. thank you
>>
>>26481900
Let her go, we promised, plus she may be carrying our spawn now!!
>>
>>26481900
If we can't sting her again, let her go.

WAIT- ask for her phone number.
>>
>>26481992
Nope, we got [1/1] of paper making, 0 neruotoxin, 0 thrown spit, and 1 superfast.

"No."
"Hey y-" You spit damp wads of metal onto the creature's face, covering it's irritating mouth-hole. Subsequent gobs stick the things wrists and ankles to the wall behind its desk. You run out of material about halfway though, but eating everything metallic on the creature's desk gives you enough stuff to bind it properly. You hold it there, up against the wall as it stuggles and tries to shout at you. Soon enough your emissions harden and the Delicous creature is held tight, unable to move or even make much noise.
[Paper making 0/1]

You giggle, and startle yourself when the noise is much softer and tinklier then you remember. "Be back for you later..." you mutter, shifting to your heavier voice to giggle properly.

You look around the room. It's a pretty standard front desk office. There's two elevators in the wall behind you, one you came up in and one smaller one. A set of stairs off on another wall leads both up and down. There is the hatch in the wall the thing wanted you to climb into, and the frosted glass double doors it first pointed towards. You might be able to find some vents, if you felt like squeezing into them. You could also go back down to where you heard that other delicious thing.

>What do you do?
>>
>>26482212
Go for the other delicious thing
>>
>>26482212
head towards the frosted glass doors.
>>
>>26482212
can we find more metal to recharge powers and paper in this room?
>>
>>26482212
Let's go upstairs...time to confront the boss
>>
so far ferrovore only does healing
>>
>>26482212
Go toward frosted glass.
>>
>>26482264
Well...we do still have healing to do, if you'll recall.
>>
>>26482399

then eat her chair or some shit.

Consume the gun!
>>
>>26482444
I'd rather save that for the boss encounter.
>>
>>26482470
Nigga we ARE the boss encounter.
>>
>>26482470
You do recall that we don't have fine manipulators or any kind of grasping limb, right?
>>
You creep towards the frosted glass. No point putting this off any longer.

You push the doors aside, and enter a small waiting room. In here you find numerous seats and a glass table with a lot of small stacks of paper on it. Books, you realise. There's also an elaborate metal structure sitting in the corner, seemingly uselessly.

You hear voices through the other set of doors, identical to the ones you just passed through. One of them sounds familiar, and after a moment you recognise it, it's your creator!
"-called me up to gloat? I don't even know why you bother. Last time it didn't even eat three employees before someone sat on it and killed it."
Your creator responds angrily, "This one's different! You'll never beat it! I'm going to watch as it crushes your spine and slurps up all of your brainfluid!"

While you listen intently, you munch away on the ferrous sculpture, gaining a small amount of strength back.
>Heal(crippled antennae), Recharge bioweapon (Neurotoxin[0/2], Thrown spit[0/2], Hyper Reflexes[0/2], Paper making [0/1]), or Shift(from what to what?)?

"Oh yeah? How? You've sent all manner of strange things, with claws and stings and tentacles, and none of them have been remotely threatening"
"Shut up! This one has a penis!"
"Oh no, what's it going to do, lay my secretary and make me jealous? Please. That goddamned slut would probably like that."
"Y-you don't understand my work!"

You still hold your mate's weapon. You are hungry.
>What do you do?
>>
>>26482513
Since it's just our antennae that's hurt... let's recharge Hyper Reflexes. I think that's our most useful one.
>>
>>26482488
That's not true, check the pastebin. He have digits that are described as " Extra manipulators on the end of your limbs. Good for grabbing things and pushing buttons.".
>>
>>26482513
Hyper reflexes, then walk in all swaggerly and say hello
>>
>>26482513
Recharge dem reflexes, then eat the delicious thing.
>>
>>26482513
Open the door and say: "She did say you were worse than me."
>>
>>26482513
Hm...any other methods of entry beyond burst in to show off our glory?

If not, kick the door in.
>>
>>26482560

>>26482513
recharge hyper, shoot the boss through the glass. glass in this universe is apparently really thin. lets end it Indiana jones style
>>
>>26482513
Recharge reflexes
Smelling things is useful but killing things with super speed is better
>>
>>26482513
>Recharge Neurotoxin

Well, since it looks like the consensus is for reflexes at the moment, let's go for the dynamic entry.

>>26482545
Hmm. How did I miss that?
>>
>>26482513
>That should be: Reflexes [1/2] I miscounted somewhere.
>>
>>26482643
Then neurotoxin is a better idea I think
We have the hyper speed so let's cripple him with the worst pain imaginable
>>
>>26482643
Oh, we have a Reflexes left?

Neurotoxin would be sweet then, course our luck would be that it's a fuckin robot or spider person we're after.
>>
>>26482705
Well, considering Mother didn't think to TELL us, we'll just have to take that chance.
>>
>>26482563
>There have been many other paths indicated throughout the course of the game, and in this thread too. If you wanted to attack from the vents, or kick down the door, or even go up onto the roof and burst in through the window then I'd let you, but I can only give you so much for free.

>It's shifty, but I'll give you neurotoxin. This is my mistake for the error.
Your venom glands fill up as your stomach churns. They give you a delightful sense of pressure, and you know that stabbing someone with your mandibles will be quite the occasion.

You rear up onto your hind legs, and crash through the glass doors, holding the firearm in front of you.

In the room you see a human, standing tall and proud behind a desk in the back of the room. He is very well built, with rippling muscles that seem to burst out of his thin cloth shirt. Behind him, arrayed on screens across the entire wall, are many copies of your creator's face, many small ones outlining a huge one in the middle. You briefly wonder how whe can have multiplied and grown so effectively, before realising that telephones could also work with pictures, not just sound.

"She did say you were worse than me!" You cry.
"Oh it was listening in. Hey Eliza, since you're here, I guess you'll get to watch how ineffective these things really are."
>>

And then, after poisoning the fuark out of it...

"She's right, I am different. I eat delicious things. And when I eat delicious things, I get to take something from them. Sometimes it's knowledge, but mostly it's a useful part of their body.
I don't know how my predecessors were different, or how they were inferior. But I've already eaten everyone else in the building except your secretary. I plan to take her with me, she's carrying my spawn now.

Do you know what I know about you? I know that nobody in this building ever liked you. Not even a little bit. Every one of them would've liked to see me eat you. They would've wanted me to do it slowly, so that you could be in pain for longer. I don't understand why exactly. Or how doing so is supposed to show anyone anything.

All I understand is that I'm hungry. I'm so hungry, and you're the only delicious thing here."

I can't WAIT till we assimilate that.

Anyyway, if we get to eat this guy, pick up Lying.

He's a ceo business scumbag man. He's got to have, like, Master-Class Super Bullshitsu powers.
>>
>>26483034
Well, my reasoning is that it's actually incredibly awkward - like, physically awkward - to hold a longarm sideways.

>>26483048
I would quip about believing everything you learn from TV, but this one's legitimate.
>>
>>26483061
Actually...maybe not JUST lying
But the ability to spin elaborate falsehoods and make them sound very true.

Like you said, he IS a business man
>>
You swing the gun toward the man, and grab the trigger as hard as you can. There is an almighty blast of air and you get thrown back a short distance. Your arms hurt! You weren't expecting that at all! It's not like in your memories, where people just point the things and other people go flying.

A half dozen of the screens on the wall wink out, and the largest one begins to flicker. The man seems completely untouched, somehow.
"Bioweapon twelve," your creator says angrily, "why on earth did you shoot me? Are we going to have to have words later?"
The man just stands there, laughing heartily. He doesn't seem in the least scared of you.

You drop the weapon and leap towards the man, who drops into a half crouch. Right as you get to him, his fist comes up and knocks your gaping maw aside. You slash at him with your claws, but he simply grabs your arm with his, and with a powerful twist he throws you across the room and into the window, which bows outward alarmingly and fills with cracks.

"Oh this is just gold. You can't even control your pets. In fact, I'm going to kill it with one of the first ones you sent."
The man draws something out of a drawer in his desk, something that looks rather like the weapon you dropped, but it also seems... Delicious. near the back of it's length you can see an eye, with the rest of it hidden beneath a thin sheet of metal. Many cables and tubes twist around the back of the device.
"Seriously, it took me less then half a day to tame this one, and it's much more effective after my modificiations. Your work was a waste of funding. I don't know why you refuse to admit that."

>>26483268
>You're meant to be able to do it with a bit of creativity, unfortunately I don't think I've given you enough tools to work with to do that, due to being a little bit out of it. That's part of why I'm calling it here, and what I mean by the quality dropping.

Oooh, I see. well, that's fair enough.
Honestly though there haven't been that many really good combat options recently. No harder poisons, or tougher armor, or sharper talons.

But hey, still loved it all.
>>
>>26483226
So realistically, how long would you have let us fuck around in this office building before you said "Okay, bossman is bored and comes to find YOU"

Because I was considering just eating all the staff first.

What're the chances of that devil spawn we left back there being an evil evil bastard that will come back to haunt us and NOT an extra life in case we fuck up this fight like I wanted it to be?

Well, this isn't good. The guy's just a human, but he's our most dangerous target yet for one reason - he's competent. I wonder if we can absorb Knowledge on Martial Arts...

>>26483368
>That's what I expected you to to. That's why this was all done at night, where there was a limited roster of edible targets. You only really missed three of them, but... well, spoilers.

>Losing this fight would be a Bad idea, which hopefully should become painfully obvious at the beginning of next thread/the end of this one.

Given he's using one of our predecessors as a handgun, I'd say it's already pretty obvious.

>>26483421
>You missed three
and then they swarmed us while we were fighting boss man....

>>26483421
That doesn't really answer my question...but I'll assume no.

Pride isn't gonna let us just run away, though.

>>26483421
I'm kind of annoyed we didn't get the implied maintenance staff in the basement or whatever it was. But I keep missing threads so I haven't been able to influence things.

... What would that offer us in terms of advantages?

>>26483538
I hope you keep track of all these minor things OP
I'd be nice if we just had some civilians without any cool alien powers to get these powers from. There's always something more interesting though.
