DiscoDude: ---BEGIN SESSION---
DiscoDude: Session logging commenced
Ryusui|GM: EXCHANGE 7/12
Ryusui|GM: Steam continues to clear from the center of the arena as the exchange begins in earnest!
Vera: Vera's hand shoots out from below the table, grabs Ziziphus 7 by the collar, and yanks him across the table so that their faces are inches apart.
"Hi! I am having a day, and boy oh boy, I'd like to get to know you better - food, food's something we have in common - maybe distract me from this agonizing pain I'm experiencing right now!"
(I'm using AGGRESSIVE to try and get Ziziphus's favorite flavor.)
;}"÷™+╎®^★█¬ˇ¾: ((The goal is to make any dish using the ice as an ingredient, right?))
Ryusui|GM: (yes, there's no limit on what you make just so long as you make one dish with the ice)
Ryusui|GM: (roll it, Vera XD)
Vera: (Gonna roll now; it's gonna be fun seeing if he can still pull something SNEAKY in that state, or if he'll have to switch to some other approach.)
Margen: Margen is more than a little miffed himself (about that satellite-mount Weapon Brûlante de Masse), and for once it shows
Vera: !f 2 (AGGRESSIVE)
DiscoDude: <@Vera> rolled 4dF+2 for 3 [4dF = [+][+][-][ ]]
Ryusui|GM: !f 1 (Careful - to not get caught by surprise)
DiscoDude: <@Ryusui|GM> rolled 4dF+1 for 0 [4dF = [-][+][ ][-]]
Ryusui|GM: (SWS, yo)
Vera: (Not gonna use any of the invokes against me?)
Vera: (Or have you decided I've taken enough punishment? XD)
Ryusui|GM: (yeah, i'm gonna let you have this one XD)
Vera: (Yee. Shall I narrate?)
Ryusui|GM: (i was gonna narrate his reaction, but if you had something else besides...?)
Vera: (Nah, you can do it.)
Ryusui|GM: "Actually I rather like a nice steak-" Ziziphus blurts in a high-pitched voice, before he catches himself. "Ahem. I mean, I find violence solves relatively few of life's problems, young lady," he croons, still clearly disturbed by the death grip you've got him in. "So if you'd please consider stepping back...?"
Ryusui|GM: (Ziziphus's favorite flavor: Savory
!)
Vera: "Steak? Weird thing to roll back but okay. I feel much better, actually..." Vera lets go, and stumbles - falling at least once - over to Station 3.
Ryusui|GM: Meanwhile the Beryllium Chef happily hops over to Station 6 and sets to work. "Oh boy, yes!" he says to the camera as he slams the [Comet Tail Ice] down on a cutting board. "Today we make...the surprise." He grabs a bone saw out from his parka and begins meticulously cutting shapes out of the ice.
Ryusui|GM: (attempting to make prep aspect)
Vera: (Which station?)
Ryusui|GM: (my bad, i was gonna type that out XD)
Ryusui|GM: !f 4 (Careful)
DiscoDude: <@Ryusui|GM> rolled 4dF+4 for 4 [4dF = [-][ ][+][ ]]
Ryusui|GM: Dovelia is hauling her block over to Station 3. The camera catches her expression as she looks back at Station 6: "Just what in the frigid depths is he...sweet [BLEEP]."
Margen: Margen sulks tentacularly to Station 4, visibly unsettled by his proximity to the business end of a class-17 laser diode being used for off-label purposes (far and away beyond anything a production waiver could reasonably get away with in court).
Vera: "Occupied." Vera's shaky, finger-pointing hand juts up from under Station 3's counter.
Ryusui|GM: The camera pans instantly back over to Station 6, where the Beryllium Chef is standing triumphantly atop a [Inexplicably Huge Pile of Crystalline Bones][!!]
Ryusui|GM: Dovelia reverses course without another word to Station 2, clearly too disturbed by the Beryllium Chef's feat to argue.
Margen: Margen snaps out if his funk instantly and drools at the sight of delicious, delicious bones
Margen: dragonbones
Ryusui|GM: Dovelia stares angrily at Station 6 as she hauls up her chunk of ice. She is not about to be upstaged by some imp. Thoughts of delicate slush-based desserts flee her mind: she's going to make something beautiful.* She grabs a small, sharp knife - her cybernetic blade is not the one for the job - and sets to work.
Ryusui|GM: (attempting to make prep aspect)
Ryusui|GM: !f 2 (Careful)
DiscoDude: <@Ryusui|GM> rolled 4dF+2 for 2 [4dF = [ ][-][ ][+]]
;}"÷™+╎®^★█¬ˇ¾: "Mind helping mii speed up clearing this debrii, darling?" Tako-San asks of Mel.
"Sure."; Mel smirks as she grabs Tako-San by the mantle and starts sweeping his limp body across the countertop like a washcloth, creating a Cleared and Cleaned(?) Counter.
((Create an Advantage with Flashy against Fair (+2) difficulty))
Ryusui|GM: As the pile of twinkling crystalline pieces forms in front of her, it's clear Dovelia is taking a different tack. Columns. Arches. Whatever she has planned, it's architectural. Soon she has a collection of [Delicately Carved Ice Building Blocks][!] in front of her.
Margen: Margen stares hard at the Crystal Shard, and can't seem to figure out exactly what to do with it beyond attempting to use it to gain infinite power. He makes a decision, and searches the cabinets for an ice grinder (prep aspect)
Ryusui|GM: (roll it, Tako XD)
;}"÷™+╎®^★█¬ˇ¾: !f 3
DiscoDude: <@;}"÷™+╎®^★█¬ˇ¾> rolled 4dF+3 for 4 [4dF = [-][ ][+][+]]
Margen: Nice
;}"÷™+╎®^★█¬ˇ¾: ((Wait! That's actually a success with style against Average (+1) difficulty.))
Ryusui|GM: (it is)
Ryusui|GM: (oh yeah, roll, margen~)
Ryusui|GM: (my bad)
Margen: !f 3 (to carefully create an advantage, I think it's against+1?)
DiscoDude: <@Margen> rolled 4dF+3 for 4 [4dF = [ ][ ][+][ ]]
Ryusui|GM: (SWS!!!)
Vera: (Describe your success, and name the aspect.)
Ryusui|GM: Margen, whoever stocked these cabinets gets full marks from you. You find exactly what you're looking for, in perfect working condition. (name it!)
;}"÷™+╎®^★█¬ˇ¾: And completely devoid of health infractions!
Margen: Margen laughs maniacally as he pulls forth a perfectly-functional Arctic Macerator 27, The ULTIMATE Ice Grinding Machine
from a high shelf
Vera: (Which one's the aspect? I put aspects in bold nowadays, but I saw the GM use code-font earlier.)
Margen: (Yeah arctic Macerator is the aspect, the 9ther is a brand tagline XD)
;}"÷™+╎®^★█¬ˇ¾: ((I copy the bold italics from the physical copy of the rules I have.))
Vera: (I think Tako's victory needs describing, and then we're done.)
;}"÷™+╎®^★█¬ˇ¾: Once Mel finishes, Tako-San pops up, seemingly recharged. "Aa! Comet water is surprisingly refreshing!"
;}"÷™+╎®^★█¬ˇ¾: Clearly, some of what was sweeped up was absorbed by Tako-San.
Ryusui|GM: "Don't go away, folks - we'll be right back!" Holly says with a wink.
Ryusui|GM: (everyone good?)
Ryusui|GM: (<@&627978553669058562>?)
Vera: (Ye.)
Ryusui|GM: (then let us...)
Ryusui|GM: !end
