That's like, the only good thing happening in this entire thing, so let's start with hurray, the puzzle is correct. The puzzle that happens after everything else, of course, which we will go over in order:
First off, Neverah is getting a sawblade to the meat... meatal? of her thigh, leaving it embedded deeply in there. It's going to make walking a bitch. But maybe she can share the new flashing signals to finish the puzzles? Perhaps?
Maomao lifts an arm to try to protect herself from the saw blade coming at her, but it's too late; it cuts off her right pinky finger before embedding itself in her side, right in her ribs. Wow it's a good thing robots can't bleed out! Luckily, again, while robots do feel pain apparently, it's not so bad and she manages to lift the plasma gun and completely explode the flesh monster before it can so much as touch them. it opened its mouth to scream and the brief scream they heard is going to raise all their bad feelings about 40%, but it rolled a two on dodging sooo. it's fucking dead fam. there's just monster goop EVERYWHERE. the girls are rolling up covered in flesh
The body Lucas insists on carrying gets nailed on the shoulder but it's nothing why is Yves fine. i mean i guess any damage would finish him off so fair enough nice job dodging
Lucas himself is going to be nailed by a small boulder the size of a large boulder (meme) in the ribs as he attempts to protect Yves, because I KNOW HE WOULD THE FUCKER, and there's a loud crack as two of his ribs break. The others are definitely bruised. Getting pelted by rockvalanches? bad.
FUCKIN URUHA THOUGH
Uruha is half paralyzed but his first thought goes to the bunny in his arms who is simply petrified by all these things happening. it's the bunny equivalent of a four year old and it is so overwhelmed it cannot possibly protect itself. So he uses his body as a meat shield and Lucas gets to see him get absolutely pelted by multiple large rocks. He's getting bruised and battered all over his body. His non-sword arm (i dont know what fucking side that is jan) snaps, the bone nearly jutting out of the skin from the angle it's forced at. There's the sound of one of his ribs cracking because anything Lucas can do he can also suffer. He's laid out on the ground protecting the bunny with his whole body. AND HE'S STILL CURSED WITH 10X PAIN I KEEP FORGETTING I DID THAT TO URUHA
The bunny definitely was hit by a rock as well. Its little leg is broken and bloody, and it seems unconscious but........
.......
the bunny lives for now
anyway roll to dodge rats. lucas. lucas can roll to dodge rats i dont think uruha can dodge anything for right now. or the bunny. ]
there's a louder cry of pain this time, shoving her hand to her mouth roughly to try and stifle it. they can also hear a very worried:]
Maomao!
[before she continues. she does not know whether robots can bleed out so she's going to tear off some of her dress and try to staunch the other girl's bleeding!! but as she does, pained:]
T-Two again. One looks like a face, two eyes towards the top, a line for a nose, frowning. The second is the same I saw earlier, three circles with lines dividing each circle.
[these descriptions are notably worse but she has probably earned that she's cOVERED IN FLESH MONSTER CHUNKS AND TRYING TO MAKE SURE MAOMAO DOESN'T DIE WHILE GETTING PSYCHIC DAMAGE BEYOND THAT rip to uruha but it's not about him (mostly because she can't see his suffering sorry jan)]
[ she feels the blade embedded into her side and ribs. on one hand, she has a higher tolerance of pain from her experiments
but even that brings tears to her eyes. she raises the gun again to make sure she doesn't need to fire again, only to see she's missing a finger ]
Ah... [ yeah...
for a moment she thinks about that woman's form over her with a knife coming down.
it's neverah's voice that reminds her they are in the middle of something. she can't think about it. she is going to leave the blade embedded in her to keep from bleeding out. ]
We need to... [ she forces herself to focus again on the symbols ] It's a repeat. Three circular shapes that look like lily pads. The other one... [ it's harder to think ] It's two big circles on the bottom and a long shape above it. Like a hat?
[OWIE HIS RIBS well this is fine, he's dealt with worse and everyone is still alive. He's just going to panic his way quickly through the rest of the puzzle after he recovers from taking a rock to the ribs while protecting Yves, but he doesn't even stick around long enough to see if he got it right because he's immediately RUNNING BACK TO URUHA WHO GOT SO FUCKED UP AND ALSO THERE ARE RATS OUT HERE????? JESUS CHRIST.
HE REALLY IS JUST GOING TO RUN OVER THERE AND PULL URUHA UP AND ALSO PULL THE BUNNY UP. HE'S CARRYING THREE FUCKERS NOW. THIS IS FINE. NADIA IS STILL OUT THERE SOMEWHERE. At least he's strong enough to do this and the only real issue is figuring out how to balance everyone since he still only has two arms even if they're buff as hell. Ideally he would like to keep an arm free to fight with, but his legs are also buff as hell, so he will just make do.
Unless Uruha does something wild here with his BADLY DAMAGED BODY, he'll probably settle for carrying Uruha princess style in his arms with the rabbit resting on Uruha. He. He may have to stack Yves on them actually and just carry them like a pizza box stack because he can no longer secure Yves to his back.]
[THIS 10X PAIN IS SO MISERABLE. uruha's vision goes white for a moment when his arm snaps and he lets out a cry, and then ow fuck his rib and fuck everything in general. despite that, he does struggle to try and get off the ground, gritting his teeth in pain—but it stops mattering because oops there's lucas.
in uruha's paranoia lucas is registering as unsafe so uruha would like to be out of his arms, actually, and he does kind of try to wiggle out for a second but like. he can't do jack shit about this especially when lucas starts stacking other things on him. THE WAY THAT FROM URUHA'S PERSPECTIVE LUCAS JUST PUTS A LEG ON HIM. THANKS!!! he is awkwardly still trying to hold onto the rabbit with his good arm, at least.
anyway being pulled up like that also probably hurt like hell so in a moment of delirious pain he just mutters something about rokuhira-san because why not.]
[ soooo the good news is that the girls do not have to worry about another flesh monster. and that the top/first/neverah's puzzle dings with yay good job you did it.
the second half does not. it is. wrong
SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO while those tiles go WRONG and there's aNOTHER EARTHQUAKE, which at least combined with lucas stacking and dodging with a 14 means the rats(?) don't manage to get to the body pile, it does mean that.
it's time for another punishment game
Neverah actually doesn't get the feeling of betrayal this time, nor will she see flashing signs anymore. Maomao, however, feels a deep anger and hostility towards all three other participants at this point. on top of being stabbed and bleeding and whatever else may happen next. And this time the this is a turret popping up. Fear not! It's not shooting bullets! It is shooting laser beams! That makes it okay, right. roll to dodge help
Meanwhile Lucas has to roll to dodge both the rats a second time and also fireballs. There's fireballs from the sky.
i guess uruha is awake enough to roll to dodge too alongside the bunny? my god it's bad out here ]
[in an alternate universe she is closing her eyes at the pizza stack
however luckily (???) there's a bunch to close her eyes at her already!!! the hilarious way she doesn't know to expect either bullets or laser beams because she's a ye olde so she's just kind of staring at it for a second like "how is this thing going to get us". when it becomes clear exactly how it's going to get them:]
Get down!
[that's to maomao who she doesn't know yet hates her help me. she's probably even slower than she would ordinarily be to try and dodge because of the saw blade embedded in her leg that already had rat chunks bitten out of it. also she rolled an eight help me. she's going to try and shield maomao!!
[ she's just a little thing full of angry and hurt
maomao is back to staring at her missing pinky though and is going to collect the piece from the floor to put it in her pocket. maybe? maybe she can stitch it on?
she doesn't see what pops up until neverah is yelling at her to get down and going to use herself as a shield.
she's mad and being saved by someone she's angry at is just the worst feeling. she doesn't want to owe them anything ]
[Lucas rolled a 12 for rats and an 18 for fireballs! Help! He's going to be holding his pizza stack!!! He's trying to keep them out of harm's way!!!!! But also he still has to move these tiles which he's going to attempt doing WITH HIS FOOT once he can, since i think zia said they were on the ground. IF THEY'RE NOT HE'LL TEMPORARILY SET HIS STACK DOWN ON THE GROUND AND PICK THEM BACK UP THE SECOND HE'S FINISHED BUT HE IS TRYING VERY HARD TO NOT DO THAT, HE'S JUST GOING TO BE LOSING HIS MIND WITH PARANOIA THE WHOLE TIME.]
The bottom row!! The second set—!
[WHAT IS A LILY PAD ACTUALLY WHAT IS ANY OF THIS. Keeping an eye out for dangers since URUHA KEEPS EATING SHIT. He waits to hear another explanation of the tiles since he does not think he put them in the wrong space and he doesn't want to try flipping them over in case it brings even more wrath down upon them.]
[well uruha rolled an 8 so he's not dodging very well but he is committing to trying to protect this rabbit at this point.
but if i can godmod lucas into having to put uruha down, he's going to move his good arm away from the rabbit for a sec to forcibly try and set the tiles himself, hissing in pain as he does so.]
[ The laser hits like a lightsaber through Neverah's side, burning a chunk of her metal flesh as she gets Maomao out of the way of the pewpew. It works. She's safe. For how long until they are betrayed again by bad puzzle solving?
Lucas uses his body to protect his stack of pizzas from the rats, dropping them when Uruha insists so they don't get it. Four of them latch onto his limbs and back, chewing through clothes and fur and skin, sucking at the blood like parasitic leeches. WHAT PART OF THIS IS A RAT. The fire singes his clothes and hair manages to miss him, which is a shame, because it would help with his rat problem.
The rats don't get to Uruha while he's holding onto the tiles, moving them to their final place. Right as he puts in the last one a fireball LANDS ON HIM HE'S ON FIRE PUT HIM OUT he's going to have second degree burns on like half his body at this rate UH OH
the bunny is protected from rats by lucas and protected from fire by uruha and everything is good and okay
um yves/taair/legs is on fire. took that fire right to the body/face etc. uhhhhhhh. well you can't check his pulse right now so dont worry about it
this all happens RIGHT as the door opens for the girls to let them out of trap hell room into an elevator and a fucking SKI LIFT shows up over the chasm for the boys. might wanna run for that before the rats get to it.
[the hilarious way it isn't for sentimental reasons it's for "that's my water bottle and i refuse to fail anything including this". anyways despite the sawblade in her leg and the new wound through her side!!!! ow!!!! she's still going to try to limp towards the elevator. a reminder that she still doesn't know what an elevator is but it seems like the clear way out anyways.
she'll make sure maomao can get in without getting lasered as well.]
[i regret to inform you that since lucas' PAWS are free as he's put Uruha down temporarily, he is going to employ his favorite technique against these PARASITIC FREAK RATS???? which is literally just grabbing things by the head and crushing them like grapes. NO ONE EVEN QUESTIONED WHY I STARTED SAYING THIS IN CHAT FOR FUNSIES. His strength is not as high as usual so they probably don't explode into pulp at least but it will probably allow him to do some damage and GET THESE RATS OFFA HIM before they can drink all his blood HELLO. this is even funnier now that i remembered he's still a dog.
HE DOESN'T HAVE TIME TO CHECK HIS WATER BOTTLES FOR ALIVENESS EITHER so after he deals with the rats or attempts to deal with them and as the ski lift appears, he's just going to tear more fabric from his skirts so he can TRY TO BEAT OUT THE FIRES ON YVES AND URUHA. WHY IS IT ALWAYS YOU.
But then he will re-stack his pizzas and make a fucking dash for it toward the ski lift.]
[I WAS WONDERING IN MY HEAD WHY YOU KEPT TALKING ABOUT CRUSHING GRAPES BUT I JUST ACCEPTED IT AS AN AKI-ISM.
anyway FUCKING HELL 10X PAIN IS MAKING BEING ON FIRE HORRIFIC uruha can't even stop, drop, and roll? well i mean he has the first two covered. he's on the ground. but he's not rolling with a broken arm and a broken rib and also the rabbit with him.
but here's lucas to save the day and honestly uruha is in so much pain right now that he doesn't even have the strength to be paranoid of lucas or struggle out of his arms right now.]
[ On the girl's side they are slowly leaking oil and sparking electricity everywhere as they enter the elevator. It closes behind them and starts to raise without them even doing anything.
Lucas manages to not only EXPLODE the rats(?) with his bare hands, covering himself and everyone around in goo honestly, he ALSO puts out the fire, grabs ALL of his (probably alive?) water bottles, and JUMPS on the ski lift which immediately starts lifting them up to the top of the mountain, wobbling precariously. The rats(?) attempt to follow, leaping, and all of them plummet straight into the impossibly long chasm below.
honestly fun fact this is a valid strategy good on him
