As the light gets closer to where you're hiding at, you see him. <span class="mu-g">Oh thank the Father, Delta is here.</span> You hiss out a sigh of relief, glad that your efforts weren't wasted.
He has wheeled in one of the containment cubes they gave you specifically for this harvest. Nearly double the size and a lot thicker. You still don't know what they're made of, though you've heard rumors of them being sourced from U-Company.
Delta backpedals with it to make sure he's not visible to the sun before he starts putting the access code in. While that's all good and all, there's still the issue of putting this thing in it and...
https://youtu.be/rRdrtA0dU8w <span class="mu-r">The sun. THE SUN THE SUN THE SUN THE SUN THE SUN THE SUN THE SUN!</span> Right around the corner, the sound of clattering gears and the horrible,
lovely blindingly white light flooding around it tells you that
THESUN is here. Shit, shit, fuck! You scramble back as far as you can but you can already see your surroundings slowly warp. Slowly become transparent.
Perfect. A spinning gear-like chunk of metal pokes around the corner. Coated in bizarre runes that <span class="mu-r">BURN</span> to look at.
<span class="mu-s">"He'll never make it in time."</span> The
lovelyhorrid, luminous sun crackles. <span class="mu-s">"Dim your light. I shall make you whole. I shall make you me."</span>
If you can just buy a few extra seconds, just enough time for Delta to open that cube, you think you can get this thing contained. You just need to find a way to buy that precious, precious time without the sun searing you with light.
What do you do,
Galen Gamma?
>[COOLHEADED] Calm down, look at the ash covered...ash! Grab as much as it as you can and throw it to block the light! (DC: 14, Bo2. Success will block enough light to keep you safe just long enough for Delta to move in. Failure will probably just result in getting you dirty or choking you on the ash.)>[SAVVY] This thing produces light like crazy. What if you gave it a piece of your own medicine? Grab the most reflective thing you can get and reflect the anomaly's own light (DC: 16, Bo3. Success will bounce the light back at it, most likely damaging it severely. Failure will result in getting a lot of Light Exposure, probably not good to your mental state.)>[FAST TALKER] "Oh, I'm not going to be dimming anything." Pull out every spare flashlight you have and turn them on. Floodlight this asshole. (DC: 16, Bo3. Success will repulse it over to where Delta is, right where the containment cube is. Failure will probably just piss it off HARD.)>Fuck it. Pull out your knife and jam it into one of the SUNSSUNsun's gears. (DC: 12, Bo1. You only got one knife, after all. Success will clog its gears and damage it. Failure will result in you getting too close to the sun, literally.)>No, no, you got another idea (Write in. Suggest your own plan and I'll tell you the DC.)
