JELLY SHROOM CAVE BASE EXPLORATION | ACTION

[imsorey]

[In the early morning, just after breakfast is cleaned up, Sorey sends a telepathic broadcast to whoever is still currently hanging around the base:

Hey everyone! We found a strange cave way down deep in the tunnels a couple of weeks ago, and the fish down there told us there were humans living down there somehow! We’re going to check it out today. You’re welcome to come with, but bring some kind of shielding, all right? There’s a whole bunch of Tiger Plants on the route, and those spikes they shoot are no joke!

Mikleo chimes in: If you have swimming troubles, I should be able to take you around, though a couple of you might want to bring Seaglides as well. We mapped out a partial safe route, but keep in mind there’s some very large predators, and the water pressure’s going to be pretty intense if you move too far from us down there. Come prepared for that.

Should you as an intrepid explorer decide to venture down into the tunnels with them, there’s plenty to see. Glowing Jelly Shrooms are scattered across the caves, the only bit of light offered so far down in the dark. Sorey and Mikleo will lead the group in a careful circuit through them, not going too close. It’s easy to see why when a couple of Crabsnakes poke their heads out curiously.

The abandoned base the group will come across is small but has some useful items if you care to take a look. There’s also a dully glowing three-person Seamoth to be discovered not too far away, out of power, if any technologically-inclined people want to figure out how to get that back to base for use.

((OOC: Open mission post for Jelly Shroom Base Exploration! Sorey and Mikleo will tag whoever tags in, but feel free to jump other people as well and branch your explorations out separately if you’d like. There’s a lot to find!))

[Even through telepathy his voice breaks.]

What?! He what?! But we— What, no, I mean we— Uh, we?! Holy fucking dickens oh god.

[He can't hide his face well enough here but he's trying.]

[inject]

[ She let him fluster for a moment, then laughed. The sounded didn't come out of her helmet, but her telepathic voice seemed amused. ]

By that I mean he's good with his katana.

Couldn't resist.

[potentite]

[Oh god he's being teased. He can't believe this.]

W-Well! Uh. There's no way to erase that huh? Phew you could knock me over with a feather. I, uh. Yeah he's great with his sword.

[He can't say that anymore oh god. Now he's thinking something different. No. Jake groans.] So! What is your scrumming style!

[Said/Thought too loudly but he tried.]

[inject]

[ My my. Quite ruffled. She wondered why, then decided she didn't care too much. ]

Fast. If you want to learn more, you'll have to fight me. [ It's not that she can't appreciate trying to be prepared, but where was the fun in that? She smirked. ]

[potentite]

[Well, he can't say he's surprised. She doesn't seem the type to give away everything.]

Dirk's fast, too. I got this, little lady.

[inject]

[ Considering she's ten years older than him and six feet in her stockinged soles, 'little lady' was met with a raised eyebrow. ]

[potentite]

It's an expression. I thought anything else might be offensive.

[She's very scary even if she teased him.]

[inject]

[ She just found it funny, it's okay Jake. ]

All right, little man.

[ Her medical bag snapped shut with some little clicks and she holstered it at her lower back. Let's not ask how and why it still worked the way it did on land. ]

You've been very helpful.

[potentite]

[He's so curious but then again he has a video game item system so it's not like he can really question it. He just wonders if she's from a game too. It's hard being so meta.

Also 'little man' really is embarrassing.]

Ah? All I did was hold your bag.

[inject]

Better than playing with a snail.

[ And with that, she turned around and swam off. More stuff to do, things to find, mysteries to get annoyed by! ]
