thevoidsdarkhorseNeutral-Negative: the ONLY reason i got 2 cut short on ripping you a new one ofer this debacle is the fact that everything is literally on fire right now
Refer to here and here and here (momentary nsfw moment in it). Only where Roxy appears in the flash animations. Nothing like disjointed storytelling.
Break Down
-Starting off in a small half circle room with no visible exits and a control panel.
-Is drunk! But starting to sober.
-SN_Hubgrid
-Messing with the control panel.
-Messing as in knowing exactly what she's doing with that huge grid thing and making a ladder appear and the top open.
-There is a feeling of...trepidation.
-KNOWS something is about to happen, but...
-UP THE LADDER I GO.
-Gets up to the roof, kind of huffing to herself because now I have to WALK back...home...
-That is red on the horizon.
-Imperial drones and that's bad news.
-Also a roof view of her neighborhood, it's actually quite a large place and all similar looking building.
-Just accepts this is going to be hell and TAKES OFF RUNNING.
-Down from the roof, through the streets, and yelling about imperial drones.
-Carapacians run away from her.
-They all know who the drones are after and being near her is the danger, but HAS SHIT TO DO.
-Running through the streets, yelling until it's obvious the Carapacians got the message and are giving her a wide berth.
-Those are rockets in the distance.
-Those are rockets in the distance and NOWHERE NEAR MY HOUSE, OR THE LAB, OR ME.
-She has a very good head for direction and distance, knows they're nowhere close where they're supposed to be.
-If they're not firing at those locations, that means only one thing.
-There is so much dread and GUILT because she knows.
-The Condesce is gonna burn the whole neighborhood.
-She's not giving Roxy a choice, either enter the game or burn with everyone.
-Keeps running, doesn't bother warning, it won't do any good.
-Eventually gets grabbed by a drone and oh shit, Random Encounter time.
-KICKS THE ROBOT IN THE HEAD and that sure is a dent I left and ABSCONDING THE FUCK AWAY.
-So proceeds the game of cat and mouse and FIRE FUCKING EVERYWHERE.
-Oh god oh god oh god drones are after me and everyone is dying and everything is on fire
-AND THE SOBERING HANGOVER IS NOT HELPING
-Maaaaaaay be on the edge of a melt down because this is all terrible.
-Ducks into a partially destroyed building and
-Nope.
-Pull outs her phone.
-AND PESTERS THE FUCK OUT OF JANE.
-Jcrocks.
-Crocks relates to Jane's last name?
-Typoes are a mix of alcohol in her system and because she is shaking from adrenalin and being shot at by missiles.
-Haha, oh Jane, I'm totally going to believe where you are.
-Jane did not expect the game to be outlandish as it was.
-Told you magic was real.
-But no, can't talk about what you thought the game might be.
-I HAVE A LOVE SITUATION TO MONITOR.
-Talked to Jake, right~?
-Yes that is why I contacted you now tell me there is fire creeping into the building and the structure may be losing stability.
-Janey still on about mysteries and puzzles.
-TELL ME ABOUT JAKE WOMAN.
-...
-What.
-OH MY GOD JANE
-WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU BLEW IT
-Jake asked if he liked her and she panicked and said no and UGH
-UGH UGH UGH
-This is such a shitty love report Jane
-Wwwwwwwhy.
-You could have HAD HIM Jane.
-Just wanna smack your ass for being so dumb.
-But I can't rip you a proper new one because I am pretty sure the wall in the other room just collapsed and THIS FIRE IS GETTING CLOSE.
-BECAUSE LITERALLY EVERYTHING IS ON FIRE.
-Haha, no, Jane, you don't understand.
-This fire is everywhere.
-Oh yeah, that's the roof starting to cave, ABSCONDING FROM THE BUILDING NOW.
-Dawwww, cute Jane is worried.
-I'm still SUPER DISAPPOINT AT THE JAKE THING THOUGH!
-Ugh ugh ugh.
-Proceeds to continue running and just SO ANNOYED.
-You could have done it Jane.
-You could have had Jake and been happy and could have given a good love report.
-But noooooo.
-NO, FUCK OFF DRONE BASTARDS, I AM PISSED THAT MY BFF COULDN'T CONFESS HER LOVE PROPERLY.
-Punching robots, blasting them with lasers and taking all her pissiness from the love report out on robots.
-Just...shutting down all the broken buildings and dying Carapacians.
-COME AT ME BRO, I WILL WRECK YOU SHIT.
-One at a time.
-Group of three.
-TAKE ALL Y'ALL ON.
-....
-Okay, six might be a bit too much.
-ABSCONDING THE FUCK OUT OF THERE.
-Rinse and repeat for a couple more hours.
THINGS OTHERS MAY NOTICE
-She really was on the edge of some sort of mental break down and THAT'S when she decided to talk to Jane.
-She focused hardcore on that love report and when she did, all those feelings of impending mental breakdown where just boxed up and shoved away.
-Before the love report, she was very aware of any dead Carapacians.
-Afterwards, they were peripherals, but she ignored them hardcore.
-Let the feelings of the love report fuel her anger and will to fight and really it's like things aren't horrible and these drones are just douches who picked a fight with the wrong girl.
-In short, Roxy is kind of crazy in how she deals with things.
-Also the enhanced strength thing wasn't happening when she held the rifle in her hands, it had to vanish into her specibus to work.
-Her specibus was in affect, so rifle would just appear and disappear.
Meaning
Haha, I GUESS THOSE WERE THE BADDIES I ELUDED TO THAT WAS NOT THE FIRE.
There is experience with these. She knows what she can and cannot handle. She knows what they look like. And it was VERY abnormal for them to set fire to everything. Because the drones could have done that at ANYTIME, but Roxy wasn't worth destroying the entire colony. The Carapacians also know what they mean. She's a danger when they're around, so generally she's the target.
A fork is the symbol of the Condesce.
Wherever she may actually be, earth or otherwise, the Condesce has enough of a foothold to send drones regularly enough to recognize them. This? Is not a good sign for wherever she is.
More of a look of her neighborhood! Wherever it is, it really doesn't have much, if any green. And it's very big without any green.
She is a total bamf and will fight a few robots on her own and GOSH LASERS SO COOL.
But really the thing to note is this makes it VERY CLEAR how Roxy handles things. If she has an impending breakdown, the best way to deal is to focus on something else. Especially something to do with her friends. Which...Robin is not entirely surprised about. Robin, however, hasn't encountered a situation where she had to pull away that hard to deal, but she's been pushed to NOTICE when she does it on a more mundane scale. So even she can recognize that, yeah, Roxy really can just disconnect from her reality if she so chooses and then step in with a knew outlook.
There is also going to be some guilt. She knows they were doomed, she knew the universe is destroyed afterwards, but Robin feels pretty horrible that the last few hours of the Carapacians' life had to be filled with fear from the drones because the Condesce was after her. And she was. She was forcing Roxy's hand. She wasn't giving Roxy a chance to find somewhere else to hide. Either she played, or she died. She couldn't try and plan to be clever either, not with the chaos. It was do or die time.
So really, fuck the drones and fuck the Condesce.
