"Well Benjamin's a weird grey area but-" "Let's go, Nicole."
You rejoin with the others shortly after. Clover still doesn't look too hot but most of the blood has been cleaned off his face. He's able to stand now at least.
"Didn't want to use any supplies yet", Benjamin explains. "So he's still hurting a bit. Be easy with him."
"It's all good. Ain't the best with docs anyhow."
"Hey." The exaggerated cadence Casey's been putting on has mostly faded upon seeing the state of her friend. "Keep up the good work! Do take it easy! A good employee is one who is well taken care of!"
"Yah. Thanks." Clover clearly just wants to get moving already.
Molly in the meanwhile has been screeching in the same high pitched squeaky tone for the last thirty seconds.
You decide it's best to vomit up some of the supplies you gotten. You want SOMEONE to have the ANTI-MATERIAL RIFLE and CERMAIC BODYARMOR, even if you plan on giving it to better suited allies.
Hm. After some deliberation you go with
AMMO + LOOT GIVEAWAY!
>Clover gets 5 REVOLVER ROUNDS
>Benjamin will hold onto the ANTI-MATERIAL SNIPER RIFLE for the time being. He'll carry the ANTI-MATERIAL ROUNDS in case he actually needs to use it. He also gets 3 Q-CORP STEEL BOLTS
>Max gets the 3 Q-CORP PISTOL ROUNDS. She's good on ammo with 29 PISTOL AMMO and BROKEN TRANSMISSION is way more useful for her than the body armor you found is.
>Casey gets the S-CORP REINFORCED CERAMIC BODYARMOR. She's already fiddling with it to incorporate her knight armor with it..
>Kiara gets the LAWBRINGER and 4 HEAVY REVOLVER ROUNDS.
You turn to see how Casey has combined the body armor and the makeshift knight armor to see it's actually kinda impressive.
The ceramic armor was previously a full body outfit that completely hide away the user's identity underneath thick layers of pure white ceramic. It made the sniper look a lot more like a robot than a human until you saw the blood leaking out of her.
Casey has modified it by adding her makeshift chestplate + shoulder pads, adjusting the way the armor is draped over her, and removing the helmet from the equation. On first glance you could almost believe she's actually in a suit of (jury-rigged) knight's armor.
The only thing that really breaks the illusion is that the material itself but with some subtle readjustments on her end she's shifted it from a scary and impersonal mercenary suit into the closest thing to knight armor she's going to get.
>CASEY has now created KNIGHTHOOD S-CORP REINFORCED CERMAIC BODYARMOR! (Has a medium chance of blocking 1 extra damage from MELEE ATTACKS and can still block 1 CRIPPLING INJURY per mission on top of the armor's already great protection.)
[QUEEN BEE MINDSET] "The body I was created with is designed for marketability and for dispensing great advice on how to refine meat! It is not suited for hand-to-hand combat. However, the employee handbook does not disallow modification of an employee's body if need be for the situation!"
