The group has recently arrived in Penguin's Slide, aloof around the town, taking in the sights to see. The wind blows fierce, but it doesn't deter them.
[MUSIC] Penguin's Slide
[MUSIC] Wind
Acre: character joke hnng
Lemmy Morta: So, ah... What brings you folks all the way up to Penguin's Slide?
Kreg has always had a scarf and now as a thermal backpack warmer so he's fine
Catena: Did everyone enjoy playing Dress-Up?
Patches!
Or..."terra patches"
Wanda: Didn't you just ask that a minute ago?
Catena: I just remember I was going to find a better name for these things.
Kreg: We're looking to seek entrance to the Crystal... Sanctum?
I think it was?
Lemmy Morta: Terra Patches... Rings a bell. Feel like Elder Pennington had one.
Wait!
as in past tense
Wanda: You're the guy with the magic potato!
No, I'm not speaking to you again.
Lemmy Morta squints through his glasses at Wanda.
Spooker: Why are there always an Elder everywhere? <.>
Lemmy Morta: Have a nice day!
... Uh, anyway.
Kreg: please excuse her, she's a bit of an oddball
Lemmy Morta: I really dunno about it. If you're looking for a Terra Patch, ol' Pennington went on an adventure a long time ago for a bunch of them.
Catena: I thought each got one?
Wow, Pennington must be greedy.
Lemmy Morta: You know what I mean!
I'm not an expert on his weird tales though.
Catena: Regardless, probably should go have a nice chat about patches. Warm patches for the soul.
HAVE A nice winter
Lemmy Morta: It's... always winter.
Goodbye!
Kreg waves and then leaves
Keiki (GM): I assume the rest want to leave?
Catena leaves through the wall??
Sidestepper: BYE-BYE RAINBOW TURTLE
Keiki (GM): I assume the rest want to leave.
Victor H.: I assume the rest want to leave!
Sidestepper makes snow crabs
Pengumancer: You seem to be looking at me funny, sir.
Catena: Don't <.> in front of...
...wow.
ok
Penguin magicians.
Layze: wait, doesn't that mean they're wizards with the power to control penguins
Catena: The necromancer of penguins.
Kreg: Guys let's not bug the guards
Pengumancer are just complete mysteries.
Wanda: Indeed...these two look like extremely powerful magicians.
Catena: I have more mysterious stuff on myself
Wanda: I think it best that we not get on their bad side.
Shrody: I feel like there's a Shine Sprite somewhere in this town!
Kreg: Should probably go to the elder... mayer
...
mayor
Wanda: Just sound it out, now, Clarence.
Acre: Are snow crabs snow angels or snowmen?
Sidestepper: SNOW ANGELS SHAPED LIKE MAGNIFICENT CREATURES
Catena: Feels a bit clittered
Elder Pennington seems startled.
Elder Pennington: Whoa! I didn't expect so much company.
Elder Pennington: Hello, hello.
Catena: Do you have a hole somewhere? I can't believe the wind is still here.
Elder Pennington: I'm afraid I don't have many seats but feel free to take one.
Spooker: This looks like a great place for a story ^.^
Shrody tries to pick up a general power level reading on Bumpty.
Elder Pennington: Shut the door then!
oh ok
I guess the wind is just that pesky.
Elder Pennington: Well then. Something probably brings you to here.
For once someone cuts the the chase.
Sidestepper: WE'RE AT LEAST THREE PATCHES BEHIND
BUFF ME.
Wanda: We're here for a patch.
Kreg: What my bro here MEANS to ask is, do you know anything about the Terra Patches?
Elder Pennington looks at Catena and then away.
Elder Pennington: ... Welp.
Wanda: And if a cranky old witch of a koopa came this way it's extremely important that I get it before her.
Well, ok.
Elder Pennington: I'm afraid I don't really know you folks. I had a patch, but I'm afraid I gave it away. Why would you want something like that, anyway?
Wanda: You gave it to the damn koopa, didn't you?
Which way did she go?
Catena: collecting them for the better fture
future too
Elder Pennington: Well, there was _a_ Koopa I gave it too. She wanted a broom too.
I suppose I owed it to her.
Wanda: Which way did she go, old man???
Catena: Not to undermine the importance of the fture, but the future is important, too.
OKAY LOOK
Kreg knows the question.
Kreg: What, then, about the Crystal Sanctum?
Elder Pennington: I think I understand what you are doing, though.
Elder Pennington: ... The Crystal Sanctum. Hold on. I need to get serious.
Elder Pennington folds his flippers and gets sewious.
Wanda: Josuke, he just told us that wretch has the patch, we need to go get it!
uhh
But
Kreg: Okay I guess "THE SANCTUM" will just work
Elder Pennington: You folks are looking to form the Terra Quilt, aren't you?
Wanda: Did SHE go to the sanctum?
She and her cronies are looking to get two patches in one swoop, aren't they?
Catena: man, why are you so clingy on some witch
Wanda: Alfred, ask him about the sanctum, quickly!
Elder Pennington: If you are truly looking to form the _complete_ Terra Quilt...
Elder Pennington: There's one person you should see. And she
is in the Sanctum.
Wanda shoves Kreg into the center of the room
Elder Pennington: The... Celestial Sanctum.
Catena: We are indeed truly looking to form in the underscorecompleteundersoce patch, yes
sorc, gamers
Elder Pennington: You young people... I can't talk as fast as you guys!
Catena: So where is the sanctum?
Elder Pennington: To be honest I'm not sure
where the Koopa went.
But I know one thing for certain.
No one enters the Celestial Sanctum. It may sound pretty, but it is a dangerous place for the foolhardy.
Wanda just sits in the corner, grinding her teeth and seething
Wanda: mumbleNOT let that old crow beat me
mumble
Elder Pennington: It is out west of here. And I have my top Pengumancers guarding the bridge to it.
Catena: If that's a rule then there is an exception
Shrody: Dammit, I know there's a Shine Sprite in this town somewhere!
Catena: SHRODY JUST SHUT UP
Shrody: Catena, calm down.
r
more
Elder Pennington: The only person that has any say whatsoever in who enters the Celestial Sanctum... is me.
Sidestepper: PRETTY PLEASE?
Catena: ok so can we enter
Shrody: Yeah, because he clearly said that.
Spooker: I thought those guys were guarding something important <.>
Elder Pennington: It is important, my friendly Boo friend.
Sidestepper: TELL ME MORE ABOUT THE CULTURAL IMPORTANCE OF THIS SANCTUM.
Elder Pennington: Because at the Celestial Sanctum, the one person who can sew together the Terra Patch resides with her magical needles.
Sidestepper: THAT IS PRETTY IMPORTANT
Elder Pennington: Or at least... she did. She unfortunately is just a spirit, but she can still use her legendary needles in spirit.
Kreg: legendary needles, huh
Catena: That must have been something that we should've asked way, way before. How do we patch this up after getting the pieces.
Spooker: So she's a boo then? :33
Kreg: I don't think "spirit" means "Boo" Spooker
Elder Pennington: Not really! Her name is Merlumini.
PrinceShroob: I feel like this spirit is an ancestor of Merlon's. Because, you know, that kind of thing happe-of course
Shrody: Sounds like someone related to Merlon.
Spooker: I hope she is tiny, punny names are great
Elder Pennington: She is! I think she's an... aunt? I'm not sure.
Back to the orig question. Access granted: yes or no?
Elder Pennington thinks for a moment.
No.
BACK TO MERLON, GUYS
Elder Pennington: However.
... I require... 1 root beer.
Elder Pennington: Rekhs Root Beer.
ok
no
hold on
Kreg: ...where do we GET that
Shrody: The heck is a Rekhs?
Victor H.: should have asked for welch's grape juice
Catena: We are going to get you beer so you give us access to a sacred sanctum?
Layze: so for the price of one (1) bottle of rootbeer, this guy will let a group of strangers who's motives he has no knowledge of enter a sacred forbidden sanctum?
Elder Pennington: Sounds about right.
Layze: Just to make sure I'm clear on this
Catena: is-is that how society works nowadays
Zap: Welch's grape juice OP
So good
Sidestepper: NOT EVEN BEER, JUST ROOT BEER
Layze: Why thank you, Zap~
Catena: Well, where can we even get root beer?
Wizzy: layze that's not even a joke, only three people get it
Elder Pennington: Well, I wouldn't say it's just root beer.
It's... Rekhs Root Beer.
because I'm on of them
and that's all that matters
Catena: It's still root beer
It's right there in the name.
Wanda: Hold on, I know just what to do.
Kreg: We don't have time to argue this
Let's get this root beer and get back
Spooker: I remember drinking the best root beer
It was underground and far away though
Wanda unceremoniously shoves her hadn in Spooker's mouth and starts reaching around
Wanda: There has to be some in here SOMEwhere...
Kreg: If we wait longer than the chance that we'll miss more patches will... go up
agree.
Kreg: And if that happens Mario's really screwed.
Catena: as in I don't think I wanna watch wanda shove her ghost hand on another ghost
Kreg: And, by relation, we all are.
Shrody: Where the hell do we even find this root beer?
Wanda pulls out a bottle of hot sauce
Acre: Wanda mastered the arts of hamerspace
Wanda: Maybe we'll have to get it somewher eelse.
Sidestepper: I THINK CAPTAIN STORES HOT SAUCE THERE TOO
Wizzy: wanda and spooker bros attack imo
Catena: Well, Spooker said something about root beer
Wizzy: wanda takes stuff our of hammerspace and flings them at random
Spooker: I sadly didn't think to bottle any of it ;~;
we can get a bottle.
and then the root beer
and.......combine the two???
Kreg: For real though Elder Pennington, where do we GET this root beer?
Elder Pennington: Well... from the Rekhs, of course!
My last tap ran out a few weeks ago.
Kreg: ...where are the rehks
Shrody: Where do we even find a bottle? I mean, it's not like anyone ever keeps hold of those. And if there are, then they must have some serious issues.
see here?
Wanda: No, this is simple.
Catena: this is a jar of honey syrup I have
Wanda: We have to go help out the local farmers, and they'll reward us with a bottle of lon-lon milk
Wanda: Then we just have to separate the milk from the bottle, and we'll have a bottle with which to combine the root beer
Spooker: Milk is delicious
Elder Pennington: The Rekhs are a secret civilization in the Berry Basin. And let me tell you. They don't sell their root beer.
Sidestepper: HOW DID YOU GET YOURS?
DAMMIT
NOT THERE!!
Elder Pennington: From the Rekhs, of course! I haven't been down there in a couple decades.
Spooker: Wait, that's where I drank that root beer!
Kreg: ...what's so wrong with Berry Basin
Elder Pennington: But I'm getting up there.
Sidestepper: COME WITH US, ELDER. RIDE IN CAP'N'S MOUTH.
YOU CAN JOIN MY BROTHERS AND OUR NEW SPOOKY ROOMIE.
Catena: Well if Spooker of all things got to drink root beer, I'd say this won't be that hard of a fecth quest.
Shrody curls into a fetal position, mumbling something about four-headed monsters
you can stay here
Spooker: But we killed it Shrody ;.;
Kreg: shrody you didn't even get knocked out
Catena: looking for that fabled shine sprite that so slyly evades you
:)
Shrody starts sucking on...one of his fingers, since Shroobs don't have thumbs.
Victor H.: can I suck on a finger too
Catena: I think he lost it.
Kreg: okay this is stupid
Kreg: Everyone, come on, we're going to Berry Basin
Catena: Take care of him while we're gone, alright?
Sidestepper: IF YOU DON'T GET UP I'LL START SNIPPING YOUR DRESS, YOU HEAR?
Kreg: We'll be back soon, Elder.
Zap: Who is Victor anyway?
Wanda: Fine, so long as we hurry.
Keiki (GM): Sorry, randomly got company
Victor H.: some asshole, I bet
Wanda: That shew may have already snuck into the sanctum, she's extremely clever like that.
...Maybe.
Catena is on the road to Berrydian Basin
Wanda: Honetly I don't really know anything about her, but she's a bitch, and I'll not lose to her!
(s)
Spooker: Do we have to cross those two rivers again? <.>
Wizzy goes off the Berry Basin
Sidestepper: LET'S SLIDE DOWN A HILL INSTEAD
Catena: well cross that river when we get there
Kreg: Also I think we should leave that urn ghost we have at the inn, shouldn't we?
Keiki (GM): So I'll only probably stop at significant parts.
Sidestepper: LEAVE MY ROOMIE ALONE
Keiki (GM): I won't bore you with... trains, whatever.
Keiki (GM): But I will stop you at...
[MUSIC] Spiny Pines
Catena: The jujurn will never leave.
Kreg: ...Catena do you want Spooker to be cursed again
Catena: No, the juju is cool with Spooker.
Catena: Watch, we can ask him.
Wanda: Oh, god, he's still there.
Sidestepper: HELLO AGAIN, COMMANDER
ARE YOU GOING TO SELL US A BRIDGE AGAIN?
Commander Cool: Oh hey! It's you guys again.
Sidestepper: I CAN PAY YOU IN CRABS.
Commander Cool: I bet you might be a bit sore you didn't pay for a bridge. But it's alright.
I'm a forgiving man.
PrinceShroob: Shrody doesn't have his new attacks.
Wanda: Football man, I really think you should just tackle...
Zap: What's with the blue bar?
Wanda: Where did Brad go?
Probably watching fooball.
Kreg: Maybe he liked the snow
Catena: I heard there was a game going on.
Commander Cool: I offer a
new business venture.
Kreg: It reminded him of good field conditions for playing GOOD OL' FOOTBALL or something
Commander Cool: If you're not interested in bridges. Which is totally fine.
30 coins is a lot for two bridges in this economy.
I now offer... Coolcones.
Catena: Do you have shine sprites?
Sidestepper: PLEASE BUY ME A COOLCONE.
Commander Cool: They're like snowcones. But... they're
cool!
Commander Cool: ... Coolcones!
Catena: I will buy you ...one coolcones.
Kreg: I think Spooker wants one
Commander Cool: They're 5 coins each.
Shrody: You should return that slogan at the thrift store you bought it from.
Catena: Which I'm guessing is the singular form of that name
Kreg: oh well that's not bad
Shrody: *to the thrift store
Catena: Okay, but we need a bridge to get to you
Commander Cool: Seems someone doesn't like tasty ice.
It's okay! It's your loss.
Catena: Or are we gonna throw the stuff over the river?
Wanda: If you're not going to charge us for bridges, perhaps you can just make them for us so we don't have to go through the kerfuffle of getting across ourselves?
Kreg: Wanda can't you do that bridge thing again?
Commander Cool: I have expert throwing abilities.
Oh no.
I still offer my bridge venture.
Catena: Well, so do I, but I'm not entirely sure
Commander Cool: 30 coins. Two bridges over some perilous Cheep Cheeps.
Think it over!
Catena: I will buy you one coolcone if you make a bridge
And TWO if you make two bridges.
Kreg: ...okay look Spooker
Kreg: Have your five coins ready
Catena: You're missing on some sweet ten coins
Spooker takes out five coins
Keiki (GM): Coolness check.
Shrody: One of us has a mustache. Doesn't that give us a discount?
Catena: rolling (8+0)d6>4
= 6 Successes
oh wait I have no inventory space left "oh no"
Commander Cool tries to be cool.
Commander Cool: rolling (10+0)d6>4
= 6 Successes
Sidestepper: I WILL CARRY ONE IN EACH CLAW
Catena: kreg, do you want this honey syrup
Commander Cool: ... I see you're trying to be cool!
Commander Cool: Get things for free.
It's okay! Cool is literally my name.
guess?
Commander Cool: I get it. You wanna be like me.
Commander Cool: But I'm gonna have to refuse the offer.
Kreg takes one Honey Syrub
yes
ANYWAY
Wanda just freezes the water again
Shrody: Whatever. Do you guys want me to just call a UFO to carry us over?
Catena: but I need free inventory space
Whatever.
I'll just buy one.
Catena: Also I'mp retty sure you can fly over the bridge.
Spooker: I still want one ;.;
Kreg picks Spooker up and carries him across
Keiki (GM): Also, I think I'm going to introduce a simple rule for carrying people across gaps.
You make a Power check for Kreg to carry someone across. You're more likely to succeed with lighter characters like Spooker or Wanda.
Brad, Catena? Likely to be more weight.
Kreg is now a glorified taxi cab
Victor H.: are you calling brad fat
Keiki (GM): I'm calling Brad gains.
Layze: ok but wanda just froze the river again sooo
Catena is immune to such trivial things such as weight due to the power of bro.
Shrody calls a UFO to carry him over the rivers again.
Wizzy: So I just make my power check to get Spooker across, right?
Acre: Cake, did Wanda freeze the water or what
I need my reality check
Layze: I resolved the freeze the weasle
to freeze*
Keiki (GM): Alright. Power check for Kreg, Coolness check for Wanda, and Smarts check for Shrody!
Sidestepper: CAPTAIN, CAN I JUST SWIM ACROSS ALL CRAB-LIKE?
Layze: rolling (12+0)d6>4
= 7 Successes
pretend that was wanda
Catena: Do not ford the fish.
Kreg: rolling (15+0)d6>4
= 8 Successes
Layze: Though I am also very cool
Calm the fuck down guys
Wanda floats on her ice platform flawlessly.
Kreg carries Spooker over.
Shrody: rolling (8+0)d6>4
= 4 Successes
Acre: How did Catena cross the first time?
Layze: you jumped across wanda's ice platform
PrinceShroob: Seriously though, how do you fail to have a UFO carry you across?
Spooker: One coolcone please :33 What flavors do you have?
Wanda is floating on thin ice, you bisexual bastard.
Ake: I imagine it doesn't fail, but it costs FP.
Layze: that sounds good to me
Victor H.: ...I fucking choked.
Shrody uses the ship's tractorbeam, but something malfunction and Shrody seems to slip! He lands on the ice, though.
Layze: bitto what've we told you about trying to deepthroat without practice
Catena: rolling (8+0)d6>4
= 5 Successes
Catena: rolling (8+0)d6>4
= 4 Successes
Victor H.: I choked at you trying to be funny.
Shrody: OH FOR THE LOVE OF AMANITA!!
PrinceShroob: It's a mushroom thing, people!
Sidestepper: I WANT MY COOLCONES
Commander Cool: I have a boatload of flavors!
PrinceShroob: See, Zap gets it!
Commander Cool: Shroom, Zess, spicy... Sweet and sour is great.
Catena: Give me my dank-ass coolcone.
Spooker: Do you have Rekhs root beer flavor?
Catena: Ok, which one do you want?
Shrody: ...Ugh, I'm definitely gonna wash away if I don't move anyways.
Sidestepper: GIVE ME THE SPICIEST COOLCONE
Commander Cool: Hm... what's Rekhs Root Beer?
Shrody makes a leap of faith!
Spooker: Guess that would've been too easy
Sidestepper: THIS SOUNDS LIKE A GREAT BUSINESS PLAN
Catena: Give me one spicy coolcone and one sweet and sour coolcone.
Spooker: Do you have something fruity?
Commander Cool: On the double!
Commander Cool: Hm... I got mango.
Commander Cool: Peachy peach, too.
PrinceShroob: Would these coolcones even help Shrody at all?
Catena: give me mango instead of sweet sour
Spooker: Peachy Peach sounds good :33
Coolcones recover 10 FP and freeze you.
Catena: wow what a poor decision to buy this
REGARDLESS
Catena: I will...buy them.
Sidestepper: THANK YOU CAPTAIN
YOU ARE THE BEST CAPTAIN.
PrinceShroob: Almost wish I decided to go with Shrozen.
Keiki (GM): But this is fun.
Kreg waits for shopping to be done
PrinceShroob: I said "almost". Because Shrozen would probably still be frozen by that for some inexplicable reason.
Catena gives Sidestepper the spicy coolcone
Acre: he was shrozen today
haha jokes
haha
Sidestepper hugs the coolcone
PrinceShroob: Also, spiciness doesn't exactly fit with snow cones.
Commander Cool: On the contrary.
PrinceShroob: Also, is it at all possible for Shrody to repair his own ship?
Commander Cool: Spicy snow cones are great!
Keiki (GM): You could make another attempt back in Toadbrook!
Anyway. Are you guys going to cross this other river?
Acre: maybe if you bought that repair hat back in teh casino instead of dumb bunny ears
Shrody: Sorry, but I like my spicy foods like I like my body temperature.
Shrody: At a level that doesn't immediately kill me!
Acre: assuming we crossed in last sessions too
Sidestepper: THANK YOU COMMANDER COOL
Kreg: Catena you want me to try throwing you this time?
Catena: don't throw me in fish dance
that would be gross
Kreg attempts to throw Catena over the river bed basically by using similar to Chomp Hurl Bros
Keiki (GM): I think they're hardcore enough of bros that they just kinda do that.
Acre: eat it cake I can overthrow your system BJ
Keiki (GM): It's unique. I'll let it happen.
Kreg: Alright, c'mon Spooker
Catena: This......snowman.
Keiki (GM): Okay, not really that unique. But... Ah well.
Catena: it looks like a real jerk
Kreg and Spooker go for flying funtimes over Cheep Cheeps
Kreg: rolling (15+0)d6>4
= 13 Successes
PrinceShroob: I'm guessing that's a fail.
Kreg flies Spooker the fuck over.
Victor H.: why don't you lift a car too while you're at it
Wanda just freezes the water again
Wanda: rolling (12+0)d6>4
= 6 Successes
Keiki (GM): Coolness check!
what's up
Victor H.: Do you feel cool beating up a nerd?
wait wrong character
Layze: As you can see, I have just rolled six successes
Layze: So yes, I feel fairly decently cool
Catena: Shrody, you could've waited for us, you know.
Back with Pennington.
Victor H.: shroob dove below the ice platform
Commander Cool: You guys remember to call me next time you need a bridge!
PrinceShroob: What the hell!?
Oh no the ice was a fake
Wizzy: shroob just move him to the other side
he's still there
Catena: rest in piece shrody, forever to be destined to be on with the fish funtime
Victor H.: can he be shish then
And thus, Shrody was forever stuck in an ice block.
Catena: I mean to say one, but on the fish sound lewd enough.
My guy's dead.
See you all never.
Acre: Do we all OoT warp to Berry Basin now?
Keiki (GM): Did you want a go at repairing your saucer, Shrody?
Kreg continues on to Berry Basin!!
Keiki (GM): You get one Smarts check.
Shrody: Hopefully, it's accumulative.
...
Acre: rolling (6+0)d6>4
= 3 Successes
Sidestepper uses some smarts.
Sidestepper: rolling (6+0)d6>4
= 2 Successes
I WILL FIX YOUR SHIP FOR YOU
Shrody: rolling (8+0)d6>4
= 5 Successes
:/
Shrody makes progress on his ship.
Acre: IN middle of the streets
full of watchful eyes
Shrody: So it IS accumulative! ...right?
Gotta be honest here, I kinda wish I tried to repair it sooner, if that's the case.
After determinedly trekking through the jungle, Spooker leads the group... to the Rekhs Ruins.
[MUSIC] Underground
Several Rexes are lazing about the root beer hole.
Victor H.: someone, use flash
Acre: deep. darkness. win.
PrinceShroob: must...defeat...the darkness
Spooker: Delicious root beer ^.^
Kreg: ...we really needed a bottle
Acre: Well, we surely missed this on our first try.
Okay
Spooker: I would jump in but even I know that's a dumb idea
Wanda: Alright, here's the rootbeer.
Catena: Look in your inventory for bottle like objects
Wanda: Now who brought the bottle to combine them?
Shrody: Dammit, why didn't we see this place before?
Sidestepper: WE HAVE THE URN
Kreg: I could just... drink this Honey Syrup you gave me, Catena
Kreg: and we could use that
Shrody: Sssh, they're slee-dammit
Catena: The urn will not have root beer.
Spooker: We probably shouldn't have been yelling
Rex: Zzzz.... Whazzat? Oh!
... Uh, visitors. Again.
Catena: There are jujus to be kept clean.
Wanda: I TOLD you we should have stopped an assisted a dairy farmer.
Catena: Let's just use the honey syrup.
Wanda: Who was here before us?
A nasty old koopa in a filthy white robe, right?
Shrody: Are you guys forgetting Spooker was the one who lead us here? Obviously, he is the old visitor here.
Rex: Ah! The Green Ghoul himself.
Catena: Are you the ...Rehks?
Kreg: Spooker did you come here on a quest?
Sidestepper: HOWDY FRIENDS
Rex: We are indeed the Rekhs.
Spooker: We... kinda failed, ish
Catena: Come to think of it, we never talked about our quests.
ours was like
Shrody: ...Huh. For some reason, my display is spelling their name incorrectly. It pops us as "Rex".
Kreg: Catena, Shrody, and I got to fight an evil baby
Shrody: We even have the tattle log to prove it!
Wanda: Hmph. All I got to do was help the crazy man from the shop get his magic potato working.
Spooker: Do you have a bottle we could borrow and also don't mind if we take some delicious root beer?
Catena: maybe it was the amalgam of everything that is evil and we set it free to do its own evil thing
as I said, nbd
Rex: Well... we'd give you some, but...
Wanda: Obviously this is the Rekhs tribe of Rexes.
Shrody: OF COURSE THERE'S A BUT!
Rex: We Rekhs have been too lethargic to properly distill it.
Wanda: This is a trading quest, isn't it?
Spooker: You distill root beer? <.>
Catena: Well, Pennington never said anything about fresh root beer.
Rex: Wheat production is down... we haven't really been eating our wheaties.
Spooker tries to whistle and fails terribly
Catena: This is as Rehks as it can get.
Shrody: So...you need wheat?
Wanda: You know, converting the space drill into a distillery would have been an easy process, but SOME people didn't want to build it!
Shrody: Because it was stupid. And it still is.
Rex: We need sugar. Good surgar.
Rex: Or maybe something that contains like... a lot of sugar.
And maple.
Shrody: Pretty sure that ain't good sugar.
Sidestepper: WE HAVE COOLCONES
Catena: and mango coolcones
Kreg: I think I know what they need
Wanda gives up hope and starts heading towards the Sponi-factory
Rex: Is it enough honey for the entire tribe?
Keiki (GM): Today's gonna be a glorious day
Catena: If you're stingy.
Shrody tries to pick up a general power level reading on Rex.
Spooker: Where ya going Wanda? <.>
Catena: I have honey for two, and maybe three.
Keiki (GM): We do a long ritual to actually distill
our root beer.
Oops.
Kreg: (catena you're not following the plan)
Catena: (is there a plan?)
Kreg: (we have to get... the sponi-flakes)
Catena: (why is that the plan)
Rex: I'm going to take a nap. Good night, folks.
Rex curls up and takes a nap.
Kreg: (because it'll probably make them hyper and finish fast)
rargh said I
Kreg leads the rest to the SPONI-FACTORY
[MUSIC] Sponi-Factory
Catena: please lead me I'm scared of spooky ghosts
Shrody: (don't suppose going back through Toadbrook means that I can do another Smarts check on my UFO?)
Kreg: Why have you been the most frequently downed of all of us
You need defense, bro
Keiki (GM): I'll allow it. Smarts check, Shrody!
Oh excuse me
Shrody: rolling (8+0)d6>4
= 3 Successes
Catena: I am downed because I am on the front lines.
Shrody makes a little progress, but not much.
Kreg: Well maybe if you weren't made of paper
That wouldn't be such a problem
Sidestepper: YEAH MAN, RECONSIDER THE STOCK YOU'RE DRAWN ON OR SOMETHING
Catena: I have as much defense as you do.
Keiki (GM): Sponi-Factory?
Catena: Let me tell you about stats.
like 6
Kreg: Also I don't die when I'm killed
The group starts to realize the inevitable. Regardless, they head to the Sponi-Factory.
Catena: which is fixed with a shine sprite
Zap: Eh actually whatever
Catena: two problems: bam. done.
Kreg: Well good I'm glad you're going to take measures to fix it
Victor H.: the kreg and catena show, everyone
Kreg: Can't have my BRO down for long times
Spizzy is angrily yelling into a walkie-talkie.
Spizzy: And that's why you don't skimp out on the nails-- oh hello!
It's you guys again!
Catena: Give us sugar, baby
We need a box of your product
Spizzy: Sugar? What do you need sugar for?
Spizzy: How much do you need?
Kreg: Also we need the super sugar variant
Spizzy: Sponi-flakes, sugar...
a lot
Catena: For an entire tribe of kid dinosaurs.
Spizzy: Hm. Sounds like you want a whole shipment or something.
Wanda has realized that she is trapped in a trading quest, and has let loose her grip on reality; she simple stares into this distance with a thousand-yard stare
Spizzy talks into his walkie-talkie.
Spizzy: Layze! How's the sugar?
Spizzy: ... Good. And how's the
premium ingredients?
the joke is I literally named my internet handle after a character I used to RP as
kill me
PrinceShroob: Hey, I just thought of some-XD-thing. Can't the other guys help Shrody repair his ship, or can only Shrody do that since he knows how the damn thing works?
Spizzy: ... What do you mean? Dang it, Gus.
Acre snips at Wanda, dealing
4 damage!
Wizzy: give the man his answers layze
PrinceShroob: Sure, I'll kill you layze. Just tell me your address and I'll be sure to kill you in 6 to 8 weeks.
Spizzy: This is an emergency.
We're missing the "premium ingredients!"
Gus has been... lax, to say the least.
LITERALLY
Wizzy: satisfaction guaranteed or your money back
Wanda simply nods in understanding, her eyes still unfocused
Catena: end this fetch quest
Kreg: WHAT ARE THE "PREMIUM"--YES
WE WILL GET THEM
WHAT ARE THEY
Spizzy: I need those "premium ingredients" from a pal. It's a company secret, so don't look inside.
Shrody: (Can I just preempt passing through the UFO and do another Smarts check?)
Spizzy: If you peak... I'll know!
Acre: shroob you will not repair it until the endgame
Spizzy: He lives in the Undercity. Or whatever you want to call it.Pal of mine.
Spooker: Going back to there already <.>
PrinceShroob: Dammit Acre, I can't know that for sure unless I try!
Spizzy: Lives in this junk heap of a place.
I KNOW HIM
LET'S GO GAMG
Wanda starts heading towards the undercity, no longer capable of even facing the direction she's moving
Catena: That's nice amazing walkie-talkie you got there.
nice amazing, yes
Kreg: GANG WE MUST GO YES
Victor H.: shame if something "happened" to it
Kreg leads the group to that guy's house who I think is named Gus
Catena: yes please I'm scared of edgy koopas and their personnel business
The group heads the usual path to see... Gus. They retread a tunnel created by Wanda and Brad.
[MUSIC] Toadbrook Sewers
there ain't no gettin' offa this train we on
Wizzy: this quest are sick
Victor H.: Alright, guys. Let's mosey.
Wizzy: hello darkness my old friend
Gus: Guys! It's a miracle!
Catena: Gus, we need ..."premium ingredients"
Gus: Peace is coming to the underground!
Wanda sloooowly drifts into this counter, repeatedly bouncing off of it, giving no indication that she has any understanding of her surroundings
Gus: ... Premium... ingredients?
Kreg: THAT'S... actually cool yeah
Gus: Aren't you guys interested in
exposition? Oh whatever.
Catena: Premium ingredients.
oh
Gimme a moment.
Catena: please do explain this exposition
Gus: ... Oh yes! I have to give this delivery.
Sidestepper: TELL ME MORE ABOUT PEACE
Catena: if it is very important to you, I cannot let you down, my good man
Kreg: I like knowing that we did good
Gus reaches behind the counter.
Wanda: We need [premium ingredients] to exchange for [spony-flake shipment] to exchange for [bottle of rekhs root beer] to exchange for [entry to celestial sanctum]
Gus pulls out an unmarked cardboard box.
Catena: The stinger is that we're actually on a time limit
Gus: I'm gonna need a solid from you guys though if you want to do this.
Gus: You guys seem capable though.
Catena: Next you'll say "I need you to get a "video" from a friend"
Gus: I'll make this delivery and give Spizzy my word.
but I bet that's the favor
Gus: But my delivery path involves a lot of perilous spikes.
It'd be crazy to attempt it with these worn-out, dusty shoes!
Gus: I ain't no plumber with a death wish.
Catena: ...You need a wife!
Gus: I need a shoe. But not just any shoe.
Sidestepper: WHERE CAN I FIND A SHOE?
Gus: I need somethin' that'll get me over spiked terrain.
Like.
A Kuribo's Shoe.
Wanda starts making for shoe village
Spooker: Where would we get something like that?
Catena: ...fine, we'll go to boot town
Sidestepper: HEY SPOOKER, CAN YOU FIX THINGS?
Catena: East of toadbrook.
the world tour time
Spooker: I can sometimes! :33!
Catena: We'll bring a gatdam house here
Sidestepper: FIX WANDA, SHE'S BROKEN.
I'm sure they just sell boots
Spooker: I don't think I can do that
YOU HAVE LIKE 15 POWER YOU LIFT THE OUSE
HOUSE TOO
LIFT THE WORLD
catena pls
go to boot town
Kreg goes... to boot town... I... guess...
Gus: Also thanks for the whole casino business.
That too.
[MUSIC] Boot-town
Victor H.: I want to know about peace. :)
Wanda is now stuck to Catena's hat, as if by static cling
nice
Kreg goes to item shop to see if boot is sold there
Goomba plays around in a boot.
Catena: I got one (1) Wanda.
Hello, undetermined Goomba.
Spooker: That looks like fun ^.^
Goomba: Hahaha! Sorry, I was having so much fun.
Catena: I need a boot to save the world.
Goomba: Oh. Well... To be honest, I need something that's 500 years in the past.
... But I waited on it, and it's here now!
Wanda: We need a [Kuriboh's Shoe] to exchange for [premium ingredients] to exchange for [spony-flake shipment] to exchange for [bottle of rekhs root beer] to exchange for [entry to celestial sanctum]
Catena: that's for the exposition, wanda
Goomba: So while that purple wooden rose artifact is nice, I feel unfulfilled.
Goomba: There's only one thing that would satisfy me more.
Ake: Oh my gosh. Fuck this goomba.
Acre: I'm guessing pipe21
Goomba: ... I want to give something. I want to give something from the bottom of my heart.
Wanda begins drooling slightly after the goomba's last sentence, eyes glazing over
Catena: Give me the gatdam boot from the bottom of your heart
Goomba hops out of the shoe and gives Catena the Kuribo's Shoe with a tear in his eye.
Goomba: Take it... take it, new friend.
Catena: also please so not drool on my face
Wizzy exits the item shop to see this scene
Catena: I'll accept this gatdam boot as a token of our new founded friendship.
Goomba: ... Is she going to be alright?
Sidestepper: THANK YOU MUSHROOM FRIEND
Once we go on a world tour backwards.
Shrody: Can I do another smarts check on my ship now?
Catena: She will be probably throwing fire and electricity everyhere,
Kreg: Oh hey, you guys solved it?
Keiki (GM): Do it inbetween!
Catena: I got the gatdam boot
Shrody: (Also, I'm halfway tempted to brainwash Wanda)
Keiki (GM): Like... right now.
Shrody: rolling (8+0)d6>4
= 5 Successes
Catena: do not brainwash wanda
I will protect wanda
Shrody makes better progress!
Catena: from evils like YOUUUUUUU
Sidestepper: I WISH TO HELP WITH SHIP PROGRESS
Catena: .....you're allowed.

Sidestepper uses Smarts on Shrody!
Sidestepper: rolling 1d6>4

HAH
Catena: whacking things help.

Shrody: well at least he shouldn't break anythign important if he gets a success
[MUSIC] Toadbrook Sewers
Gus: Whoa, you guys are fast!
Gus: ... Wow. This boot's amazing.
Catena: Does it smell? I'm not sure.
Gus hops around inside of the boot.
Gus: ... Quality. Unlike I've ever seen before!
Not something you'd see down here.
Shrody: Dude, why are you unable to smell?
guys
Catena: I know we are in a hurry
Gus: I'll give Spizzy the word.
Until next time...
SUPERGUS
AWAY
Gus hopes out of a window.
Catena: but I THINK there is a place we haven't checked here
Sidestepper: I WANTED EXPOSITION
there might be shinies
Catena digs through the trash. Whatever floats your boat.
underground
We went straight to the left and never touched the right side
Sidestepper: GROSS, CAPTAIN
Catena: Shrody is wearing a dress Gus got from the trash.
And he is STILL wearing it.
OH.
YOU WANT A DRESS TOO?
I WILL MAKE YOU A DRESS.
OUT OF THE FINEST CRAB SILK.
And no, I do not want a dress.
Layze: that's the stairs you guys took down here
Catena is looking at where they came last time.
Well, I wasn't for thiat session
Acre: But I mean this house
Layze: Yes, the door you are looking at
Leads to the stairway
Layze: That leads to the block museum
Shrody is looking through the broken window here
Layze: The other hole was dug here by Wanda and Brad
Sidestepper: VROOOOM VROOM VROOM VROOM
I CAN DRIVE
Shrody turns his Boo light on
Acre: also hello brad good to now you're still with us
Shrody: (that's what the ghost b gone is, right?)
Shrody sees what looks like an old diner.
Shrody: Is there no items in here?
Keiki (GM): Smarts check.
Shrody: rolling (8+0)d6>4
= 5 Successes
Shrody can see something shining.
Catena jumps in the diner
Catena: through the window
Sidestepper: EXPANDING THE FRANCHISE?
Catena gets a shine sprite!
Sidestepper: MAY I HAVE THE SHINE?
and you will bask in the glory
Layze: aw give it to sidestepper
Catena: Because it's shaman time
Layze: upgrade him to SUPACRAB
Acre: If Catena upgrades, the crab also upgrades
Victor H.: are you gonna become a berserker
Anyway, I'm good
Keiki (GM): Good for now?
Catena: I mean, if any of you want a shine
Shrody: Smarts check for ship now?
Wizzy: so now half of us are upgraded I guess
Keiki (GM): I can understand if you don't want to use it before you've even decided on what to do with it.
+10 HP, down but not out and for a special move...I guess something like Mug.
Keiki (GM): Would you like to upgrade?
Also, I'll be right back!
Acre: Like, steal an item while damaging.
Sidestepper: HOW DO YOU DO THAT AS A CHOMP?
Victor H.: sidestepper can steal for you
Layze: how does a chomp mu-thanks crab
Wizzy: Catena embracing piracy
Victor H.: the references
I get it
Victor H.: if I throw a bone, will you be distracted
you stupid dog
Wizzy: fuck you for mario party
Layze: if we're going for mario party references spooker should have the same thing
Wizzy: I lost that board because of you
Layze: by the bitto, gamers
Wizzy: wow I JUST noticed I omitted a word
gj self
Acre: It's okay, I do well
I got back
Victor H.: oh god I'm getting further into FE10
Wizzy: acre let's play mario party
Victor H.: ....."Elsleep"
....."Elsilence"
what the hell, intsys
Acre: oh good catena is moving on his own
PrinceShroob: How do you guys play Mario Party together, again?
I mean
Wizzy: Catena is dancing on the bar
Layze: why is wanda not stuck to his hat
this is non-canon
Acre: I would not mind a mario party time
but I can't chat
Victor H.: we use netplay
I'M THE BEST
Acre: and also I don't think I am entirely sure the new netplay works
Wizzy: yeah chatting will be super hard with acre
Layze: wait did you guys do another mario party without me
Victor H.: acre can talk through taunts
Acre: oh, definitely not tonight
Keiki (GM): Anyway! I'm back.
So. Upgrade now?
SURe
SURE
sURE
Shrody: Can I do another smarts check for my ship?
Acre: Does anyone want the shine?
Shrody: Everybody wants the shine sprite.
Acre: I mean, I want it but I can also give it.
Except to Shrody because he's the greediest jerko ever
like WOW
you got wings
Kreg was suddenly in the scene but then left
I WILL COOK SHINE
Sidestepper: AND MAKE DELICIOUS SHINE FOOD
YUM YUM
Keiki (GM): Also, where to next?
Layze: reminder: if kreg gets the shine we get animated axe jetpack
Acre: I want shaman if we skipped it
Shrody: Screw it, I'm just gonna do the check.
Shrody: rolling (8+0)d6>4
= 5 Successes
Keiki (GM): What if it randomly breaks between now and then
You never know
Shrody's trucking along on progress.
Acre: I like how Shrody works on it little by little instead of staying there and actually finish it.
Shrody: Because Cake wouldn't allow it.
Layze: yeah like he's just tightening a few screws as he walks by
Acre: will the animated sprite involve crabs
this is important
Layze: goodness I hope so
Acre: because I think a crab riding the hat would be swell
PrinceShroob: If it doesn't, I will be SORELY apathetic.
Layze: just a bunch of crabs skittering around him
Acre: Or, really, do whatever you have already done, Cake.
Keiki (GM): Alright. Got that done.
PrinceShroob: Seriously though, why can't Shrody just stick at his ship while everyone else is doing the fetch quest?
The items better be GOOD
Keiki (GM): I decided to get you coins and items.
Acre: also lollie wanting to steal items with a full inventory
DID YOU GET THE THINGS
Spizzy: Huh? Oh, it's you gusy.
Guys.
Why uh... Oh yeah. I got word.
Gus delivered the "premium ingredients".
So.
I got something for you.
Spizzy speaks into his walkie talkie.
PrinceShroob: THIS PLACE SELLS BAZOOKAS!
Wanda: One. Penny. Nickle.
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
ok wanda whatever
Spizzy: Lower it in. By me.
AAAAAAAAAAA
Three. Two. Three.
PrinceShroob: How much are bazookas, again?
Spizzy: Look at that. Ain't it pretty?
Sidestepper: I REQUIRE YOUR INTELLECTUAL ASSISTANCE
Kreg: an actual crate of Sponi-flakes?
Wanda: Four. Shirt Pants.
AAAAAAAAAAAA
PrinceShroob: Shoot, 8 coins short.
Kreg attempts to lift that fuckin' crate
Shrody: SPOOKER, HELP ME BUY A BAZOOKA WITH YOUR MUSTACHE!
Kreg: rolling (15+0)d6>4
= 5 Successes
lol
Kreg throws out something with all that lifting!
Spooker?
Keiki (GM): He might be distracted, I dunno.
Catena: What are you guys even doing?
Kreg: I really should've learned how to dead lift boxes better
Catena: Oh, you're carrying the box?
Yes?
Sidestepper: DO THIS LIKE YOU DO YOUR RESTAURANT WORK
Sidestepper: GET ALL YOUR CRABS TO DO THE HEAVY LIFTING
PrinceShroob: Dammit, really want that bazooka, and Spooker would probably get me a discount on that. <.<
Catena: Kreg is enjoying the lifting.
Kreg has improperly lifted and has now hurt his back
Acre: or you can ask for eight coins
We need crab time.
Shrody: Spooker, help me buy a bazooka here with your mustache!
Please!
Catena attempts to use Crab!
Catena knows about timed hits!
Catena: rolling 8d6>4
= 3 Successes
Catena summons
4 Sidestepper(s)! They scuttle alongside Catena angrily.
Spooker: Hello, I have a mustache, how much is the thing?
Catena: Will five be enough?
Spizzy: Wha... what thing?
You have to actually go to the shop
Zap: Again not entirely here
Kreg points to where Payzme's store was
Keiki (GM): Head to Payzme's store?
Sidestepper utilizes inner Power on !
Sidestepper: rolling 4d6>4
= 4 Successes
Wizzy: just those two I think
Sidestepper: GRRR I AM STRONG
GRR
Wizzy: Catena and I need to lift this crate
Sidestepper: That's 20 power rolls in total.
Kreg attempts to lift again
Keiki (GM): I don't think there's a consequence to not doing it, so... You guys lift it.
Catena displays raw power.
Catena: rolling (4+0)d6>4
= 3 Successes
uh
Catena: whoops, got a wrong token selected :v
Kreg: looking a little weak there
Spooker and Shrody head to Payzme's Black Market.
Payzme: Welcome... Welcome to Payzme's Black Market. My apologies on the terrible pun.
Oh. You guys.
Catena: rolling 10d6
= 39
Catena: I'll learn the ins and outs eventually
Payzme: Hey, why don't you all just make it quick? I'm busy doing things.
Layze: whatever acre that's 7 successes
Shrody: How much is this bazooka to someone with a mustache like that?
Catena: roll20 sucks and I hate it
Ake: What kind of discount would Commander Cool get?
Keiki (GM): Coolness check from Spooker.
Victor H.: Hah. I get it. You have to pay him.
Zap: How do I do that again?
Acre: rolling 10d>3

Victor H.: Or else he might
Keiki (GM): Hashtag Coolness
Victor H.: Less than 3 you
Wizzy: rolling 10d6>4

Spooker tries to be cool.
Spooker: rolling (5+0)d6>4

Acre: rolling 10d69>4

Spooker: I can give you the rest
Shrody: psst, spooker, loan me two coins?

Payzme: That's 144 coins.
Wizzy: we loan each other so much money
Layze: I love that the mustache Wanda accidentally gave Spooker has just come around to sorta matter
Acre: rolling 10d10>10
= 1 Successes
Wizzy: by which I mean Kreg has stolen all of Catena's money
Shrody: Okay, here you go!
Acre: Catena has freely given his money.
Layze: watch me roll a natural 20
Shrody gives Payzme 144 coins
Acre: you will not undermine my generosity
Payzme: Great. Knock yourself out, kid.
I did it wrong
Wizzy: okay please stop the random dice rolls thanks
Acre the feeling it status
Tiko: HOW TO ROLL DICE IN ROLL20
Wizzy: acre what did I just say
Payzme casually gives Shrody a bazooka.
Tiko: can i roll some fudge dice wizzy? :<'
Ake: It has to be green, layze!
I did it
I'm pro
...5
Shrody tries to pick up a general power level reading on --.
Wizzy: I'm not the leader and no one listens to me tiko so
Sidestepper: LET'S GET BACK TO THE REKHS
sidequests
Sidestepper: THIS CRATE IS HEAVY
Tiko: SOUNDS LIKE PERMISSION TO ME
Acre: pennington is probably DYING to get his beer
Shrody: If we're going back to the Rekhs, then...
stupid 1's
Shrody: rolling (8+0)d6>4
= 6 Successes
Acre: wait when did Tiko come here
Shrody: FOR THE SHIP REPAIRS
AGAIN
Layze: he was always here
Tiko: about 10 minutes ago?
Kreg assists the crabs in carrying the crate to the Rehks
Tiko: been packing aaaaaaall day
Sidestepper: WHERE THERE IS NO GODVOICE, THERE IS ONLY CHAOS
Shrody is pretty close to repairing his ship! But he needs more time.
Catena helps as well. He's a professional grabber.
Shrody: Can't I just stay and repair it?
Keiki (GM): I think I can guess where you guys are heading.
Keiki (GM): Do you want to... sit out on this one or something?
Sidestepper: LET'S BRING THE SUGAR TO COMMANDER COOL
Acre: I bet you won't get it riiiiiight
Sidestepper: AND SELL IT TO HIM
no
Keiki (GM): I'm not going to sugarcoat it. You're not going to get special side-sessions or anything.
Sugarcoat.
Because you're in the Sponi-Factory.
Acre: it's his endgame goal, cake
Wizzy: get the root beer then
Acre: Yeah, let's just get the root beer
Acre: we are closing in the two hours and a half of pointless fetching
Sidestepper: SORRY CRABS, LOOKS LIKE THERE'S A LOT OF TRAFFIC THIS TIME
Victor H.: this music is cool though
[MUSIC] Underground
er
HELLO?
Rex snores, but sniffs the air.
whatever
I'm honestly not even sure what we got.
Rex: ... I... I can't believe what I'm seeing!
Boys!
The rest of the Rexes wake up.
Catena: ...you're looking at me
Or at Wanda.
Layze: We gave them ultra-sugarfied sponi-flakes
They literally melt sugar down into liquid form and inject it directly into the flakes
The Rexes bolt upright and then zoom to eat some Sponi Flakes.
PrinceShroob: ...Can sugar even work like that?
More Rexes come, but as they get some Sponi-Flakes in their system, they leave to get some work done. One stays behind.
Victor H.: shhh you're repairing your ufo
Layze: idk, sugar is a compound so I'd be willing to bet it'd undergo chemical change before it actually melted
Rex: Shhh. It's happening.
After a bit of heaving and hoing, the rootbeerfall begins to glisten!
Rex pulls out a wooden keg.
Rex: Magic is happening, friends.
Rex: I thank you for the effort.
now we need to trade quest for the bottle
Catena accept the....one keg.
Rex: May you travel with a light step. Or uh... bounce in your case.
Keg.
Kreg: I WILL CARRY SOMETHING BY MYSELF
Tiko: (oh god is this really a big trade quest going on? oh lawdy)
Keiki (GM): Shroob, for realsies, are you going to like... stay behind?
Wizzy: I think he just meant for this section here
Keiki (GM): I kinda need a definite answer on that sort of thing.
Wizzy: like now that we're going to new place he's coming back
PrinceShroob: Yeah I kinda meant what Wizzy said.
Keiki (GM): Oh! I see. Good.
Catena still cant BELIEVE what the Rex made take place
Layze: yeah tiko, this whole session has been a trade quest
The group makes what should be their last trek through Spiny Pines.
[MUSIC] Spiny Pines
Layze: wanda become broken when she realized it so I don't have to pay attention
Victor H.: you know why brad sskipped out of this session?
because he already did leg day
Shrody: rolling (8+0)d6>4
= 6 Successes
Kreg carries the keg back to Elder Pennington!
Acre: hold on, we gotta cross the river
Layze: she's currently clinging to catena's hat, like a sock that just got out of the drier
Shrody: Dammit, I wasn't too late on the smarts check, am I?
Commander Cool: Why hello!
Commander Cool: I see you need to cross by this place. Again!
Shrody: Shush, Catena. You're the the voice in my head.
Commander Cool: Wouldn't it be convenient for everyone if there was a bridge here?
Kreg: Yeah and we've got it just fine thanks
HEY WANDA
Commander Cool: Won't somebody else build something for me?
PrinceShroob: Dammit, guess I was too late.
Oh.
Catena: You need money to build a bride for yourself?
Commander Cool: ... Anyway.
Commander Cool: I have a
new venture now!
Commander Cool: Let me tell you. I'm telling you it's great.
Kreg keeps trying to shake Wanda out of her stupor
Commander Cool: I now not only sell bridges for 30 coins, Coolcones for 5, but this venture.
It's going to be great.
I'm selling... life insurance!
Catena: It's cool, I got mine.
BUY ME THIS
I WANT CRAB INSURANCE
Layze: next time we go through here he's going to be selling real estate
Catena: You are already insuranced
IF YOU DON"T WAKE UP
Commander Cool: For only 150 coins, you can be completely secure in your life after death!
Wanda is still fully entrenched in her trade quest-induced coma
Commander Cool: 1-UP Insurance pays you if you ever pass away so your family won't have to worry about funery bills and other expenses.
Catena: What Wanda needs is access to the sanctum.
Shrody: ...I'd rather buy a bazooka with that money. WHICH i DID!!
Catena: I can keep one Wanda under the hat.
Who's carrying the keg?
........Kreg.
Catena: So you can just throw me and then the rest
Kreg throws Catena across
Acre: yes bitto I made that joke earlier
Commander Cool: But wouldn't life insurance compliment that bazooka purchase perfectly?
Spooker: How'd you even know about that?
Victor H.: Guess who's carrying Kreg?
Sidestepper: I WILL GIVE ONE CRAB FOR THIS.
Commander Cool: I see you guys would rather not buy that bridge. I understand!
Today's economy.
Shrody: Spooker, I literally said that I bought a bazooka not too long ago.
Ready?
Sidestepper: OH! BETTER IDEA.
Kreg picks Shrody up and attempts to ferry him
Sidestepper: HOW'S THIS DEAL.
Kreg: rolling (15+0)d6>4
= 7 Successes
Sidestepper: I WILL GIVE YOU A KEG OF RARE ROOT BEER.
YOU TURN IT INTO COOLCONES. MAKE MONEY.
Sidestepper: GIVE ME LIFE INSURANCE.
Shrody is ferried across!
Catena: He won't do that.
Commander Cool: Whoa, whoa, whoa.
Kreg: Spooker hang on a sec, alright
Commander Cool: I only use
premium ingredients in my Coolcones.
Kreg picks the keg up and ferries it across
Kreg: rolling (15+0)d6>4
= 10 Successes
Sidestepper: THIS IS AS PREMIUM AS YOU GET.
Sidestepper: IT'S FROM A LONG LOST TRIBE AND NOT SOLD FOR MONIES.
Kreg once more for Spooker
Catena: crab, just get in the hat
Shrody: No! Bad crab! That root beer is for the elder!
Kreg: rolling (15+0)d6>4
= 3 Successes
Wizzy: good thing spooker's light
Catena: Get in the jujurn.
Commander Cool: .desc Jreg gets careless and drops Spooker in!
Commander Cool: ... Wow, that was a huge fuck-up.
Tiko: My favorite character, Jreg.
Spooker gets dropped into the river!
Sidestepper: COMMANDER COOL
SAVE SPOOKER
Catena: not even wanda could do that
Sidestepper: OR INSURE HIM FIRST
Keiki (GM): What do you do?
Zap: So what should I roll? XD
Kreg attempts to get him out!!
Zap: To swim to shore, or... float swim
Catena: Spooker is a ghost, we could float over the water.
Kreg: rolling (15+0)d6>4
= 8 Successes
Layze: spooker don't flail around too much
Zap: We determined that floating is almost entirely useless
Layze: they'll mistake it for a mating dance
Kreg pulls Spooker out, but now the Cheep CHeeps are rowdy.
It might be wise to watch your step.
Spooker: Thanks, I'm not the best swimmer <.>
Catena: ...where's the keg
Wizzy: next to you Catena
Commander Cool: It's almost like a bridge could have come in handy there.
Oh well.
Catena: Wanda is not a keg
Commander Cool: You guys are intent on
not building bridges. It's alright.
I get it.
Sidestepper: COMMANDER COOL. NEW TRADE IDEA.
Kreg throws Catena across
Spooker: How would you vuild a bridge anyway?
build*
Sidestepper: I WILL TRADE THIS PURPLE GHOST FOR A BRIDGE.
Catena: CRAB. GET IN URN.
Kreg now picks up the keg and ferries that across first
Kreg: rolling (15+0)d6>4
= 8 Successes
Catena puts the jujurn down
Kreg gets the keg across!
NAH UH
Catena: ...Is Jujube even still here?
Kreg does the Shrody carry
Sidestepper: HE BETTER BE
Kreg: rolling (15+0)d6>4
= 5 Successes
Kreg might've fucked up again
Kreg barely gets Shrody across!
do it
Commander Cool: Life is precious!
Commander Cool: Don't forget that!
Kreg: rolling (15+0)d6>4
= 8 Successes
Shrody: ...So it needs 5 normally to succeed?
Catena: Okay, elder time.
Keiki (GM): I do not comment on rumors or speculation.
Kreg picks the keg back up
Spooker rubs his bunny ears dry
...we completed the sidequest
or rather fetchquest
Sidestepper: ISN'T IT AMAZING KREG, YOU PAID ALL THOSE COINS AND NOW YOU HAVE TO DO ALL THE LABOUR
Shrody searches the houses for shine sprites.
Catena: this is the mainquest
we got
the thing
Sidestepper: AHHH, NICE COMFY COUCH
ALL FOR ME
AND ONLY ME
[MUSIC] Penguin's Slide
Elder Pennington relaxes in his armchair.
Elder Pennington: Huh? Ah, you're back I see.

Elder Pennington: By golly, you got it!
Elder Pennington jumps in the air!
Catena: kreg yourself before you keg youself
Tiko: but not jreg, jreg's a jrerk
Elder Pennington: Here we go.
Elder Pennington pours himself a small cup of Rekhs Root Beer.
Elder Pennington sips it.
Elder Pennington: ... Absolutely perfect!
It is amazing
Acre: is...is the fetch quest over
can it truly really be over
Elder Pennington: Well, I need some more things.
Shrody: Can I please go search the houses for shine sprites?
Elder Pennington: ... Just kidding.
Catena: ok haha WOW you got me
Elder Pennington: I think going clear across to the Berry Basin is trial enough... And I'm no Yoshivala.
Catena: what a sly elder you are. haha
ha
Catena: anyway, permission pls
Shrody: Catena, I think that's your cue to convince the elder to see his old friends or whatever.
Elder Pennington hands Kreg a pass to the Celestial Sanctum.
Elder Pennington: I do not give this lightly.
Sidestepper: PLEASE ENTER URN FOR FUN RIDE TO FUN PLACE
Catena: After we're done with the sanctum.
Elder Pennington: Your trials are not over yet by simply entering.
It has only just begun.
Catena: We can't very well make the guy go by himself. He needs an escort.
Wanda instantly regains full cognizance when Kreg takes the pass
Wanda: Oh, thank god that's over.
Spooker: He'd probably be okay if we built those bridges <.>;
Catena secretly wore Wanda's hat while she was in a coma
Elder Pennington: I wish you luck in your desires to reunite the Terra Patch.
Catena: Don't tell her that, gamers at home.
PrinceShroob: Hey Cake, can you remind me what the bazooka does?
Elder Pennington: You may see some other adventurers in your bid to do such a thing.
Keiki (GM): It's a +2 ranged weapon that does splash damage. At least a little bit.
Sidestepper: SCREW OTHER ADVENTURERS
Wanda: ...Why does Shrody have a bazooka?
Sidestepper: ESPECIALLY THEIR MASCOT EQUIVALENTS
PrinceShroob: And a little bit means...?
Kreg: Anyway, thanks for the pass elder
Let's go, guys.
Catena: also look at me I'm a rank better than b
Keiki (GM): Roughly 1/4th damage.
And how much range?
Keiki (GM): But for serious. It works just like any ranged weapons.
Shrody goes through each house in hopes of finding a shine sprite
Sidestepper: CHILL, SHRODY
Shrody becomes the most JRPG hero ever.
Tiko: Is there a shine sprite hiding in a clay pot?
Sidestepper: I DON'T THINK THESE BUMPTIES APPRECIATE YOU GOING THROUGH THEIR BELONGINGS
Pengumancer and its other cohort say nothing, but nod silently.
The two guards part themselves.
Layze: last session cake accidentally left part of the map of the insides of these houses uncovered, and we could see a shine
So Shroob is trying to metagame the hell out of it despite already having gotten his shine upgrade
Acre: we'll get it on the way back shrooby, do not fret
PrinceShroob: layze, I fully plan on giving the sprite to someone else if I get it.
Keiki (GM): That's pretty much how you don't get a shine sprite
PrinceShroob: So don't assume that I only look out for myself.
Tiko: SHINE SPRITES HATE CLAY POTS
The air is cold. A mysterious bridge looms to a palace forlorn.
[MUSIC] Celestial Sanctum
Zap: It'd be hilarious if we stopped here
Spooker: This bridge is a lot bigger when your on it
Something is strange in the air.
Kreg proceeds slowly forward
Catena: That's surely and indubitably a sanctum.
Wanda gets bored and hurries ahead

Of course!
Shrody tries to pick up a general power level reading on Dark Boo.

Anyway.

Just a normal attack
Dark Boo creates a pillar of ice that slides through Kreggles and keeps going, dealing

Keiki (GM): I actually inputed the stats wrong. Because I made this guy literally today!
The nice ice pillar hits Kreg for 5 damage, 4 on Spooker, and a double damage 6 on Shrody.
Wizzy: now are we frozen or not
Keiki (GM): You guys are totally frozen.
Sidestepper: WHAT MAJESTIC ICE SCULPTURES
THINK WE COULD TRADE THEM FOR LIFE INSURANCE?
Keiki (GM): I'll go easy and just freeze Kreg because I kinda rolled twice.
Catena: We could, but we won't.
now would be an EXCELLENT time
to punt people off this bridge
i'm just putting that out there
Dark Boo: Oooh, so predictable.
But...
Is this...

Keiki (GM): Yeah, it doesn't mean shit against a meteor.
Acre: Next time I gotta parry a meteor.
YOU CANNOT STOP ME
Sidestepper: GOODBYE FRIENDS
IF ONLY... I HAD LIFE INSURANCE...
that was one mean crab
Catena: I don't think he actually had an insurance
Dark Boo: I'd make you fall the old fashioned transparentizing way.
But where's the fun in that?

he wanted to be cool....but ended up falling to his doom
or not because jk ther's a ledge elow
Sidestepper: HEY, DIDN'T CATENA GET DOWN BUT NOT OUT? AND CAN THIS APPLY TO ME RATHER THAN HIM?
Keiki (GM): This fight is pretty great for what's basically a random-ass encounter.
PrinceShroob: Okay, again, does the Shroob Invasion still come if Shrody is down?
Keiki (GM): Let's say it's a yess.
Acre: I'm not even sure what the hell is Catena even doing floating in midair.

Acre: Magic is ranged anyway
Layze: imagine how this fight would be going if wanda of kreg had gotten to do literally anythnig
Zap: Shrody looks kinda dead
Wizzy: "After a turn or two of not succeeding on recover checks, you will leave the battle."

Wizzy: I guess I lost huh
PrinceShroob: Yeah, can't I do a normal move? Meteor Blast is easy to dodge if you know to move, and I doubt Dark Star would work on another Cullite LIte.

Catena bares his teeth, ready to counter-attack anything that strikes.
Keiki (GM): No, be on the UFO, it's cool.
Or... Okay, you can jump down.
Victor H.: call in the penguimancers, please.

that terrifies you to your very core
until you get a good roll
Layze: well, this doesn't have a range listed, soooo
Wanda mumbles something the rest of the party can't hear
The DM cannot hear what Wanda is mumbling.
Wanda prepares a spell, and then snaps her non-existant fingers. The entire party is now hastened, meaning they will take double actions and act as if dodgy until Wanda's next turn.

Catena

Victor H.: LAND ON CULITE
Catena: I regret nothing.
Keiki (GM): Oh yeah. Kreg blew it on that last turn.
Wizzy: thanks for finally informing me
Tiko: you know what? I think we can all now agree that the goofy music was pretty much the most appropriate choice for this fight.
Layze: Cake imma fix it now, but just so you know, you never updated the HP/FP totals on Wanda's icon when she ranked up
Acre: Or the yoshi's midboss batle
Kreg is revived by the power of the Life Shroom!
Victor H.: cackletta boss music imho
Keiki (GM): Did I? I swear I did that. But I think I miiight know why?
Oof. Same problem as Shrody.
Layze: It just randomly undid everything?
Keiki (GM): Continue as normal, thanks for noticing.
Victor H.: spooker, you're the only one that has more than like 3 HP

Catena: Oh, right, I didn't get two moves.
Keiki (GM): Shrody, that is!
and fall
I actually did not make any moves that turn

Shrody: Have it turn so that Shrody is closer to the bridge.
Okay.
Victor H.: is shrody doing all of this in a dress
Shrody: I'm gonna jump off and get on the bridge, hopefully without messing up.
Layze: oh my god I know what he's doing
Catena cant BELIEVE he made take place
Shrody: And yes, I'm remove my brainwash control. Don't think we need it anymore at this point.

Shrody: DAMMIT WANDA, STOP TELLING US STUPID-oh wait, that's actually not a bad idea.
Acre: I recover from the obviously level I'll get
Spooker: That was way too close <.>;

PrinceShroob: I couldn't help but notice that the splash damage pierced defense.
Catena: crabs are hard to understand sometimes
Kreg: We honestly look like shit.
PrinceShroob: But the main damage didn't.
Sidestepper: CATENA LOOKS PRETTY PUNTABLE RIGHT NOW
Keiki (GM): I'm correcting things. Like getting Wanda to represent the right token!
Kreg: Catena I'm REALLY angry right now that I couldn't do anything to help you guys

then landed on a UFO

Wanda also goes back to town
Catena: but if we leave and come back maybe the guys will have respawned
Keiki (GM): I think this is a good place to end the session. The place charges 5 coins.
