Okay. No need to rush in willy nilly. You're on a bit of a time crunch since you have two (maybe three if you want to deal with Fang) Foxtrots to rescue after this but you still have time to be methodical about it. Right?
You pocket the SHRIMP VISION BIOMOD Benjamin throws your way.
>SHRIMP VISION MODULE obtained!
"No need to rush. We're not J-Corp, we don't plan on shooting the dog by accident or something." You're still a bit hesitant on letting BUGARM LADY help you out but fuck, Benjamin already got her. "We'll have Ms. Bugarm help us get in once we find an entrance. Sounds cool?"
Everyone but Clover murmurs in agreement.
Clover is obviously disappointed he can't go rootin' tootin' shootin immediately but seven people (your five allies + Seath + Bugarm Lady) outvoting him is hard for him to argue against. "Fine."
"Cool. Let's-" "Hark! I request time to change my attire! For it is unbefitting of a lady such as myself to not look as presentable as possible!"
You're about to tell Casey off but you think better of it once Kiara starts talking, "The clothes she, uh, stole from someone have some pretty decent specs to them. Just let the poor girl change into a new outfit."
"Ah, fine, fine." "Thankie, Nicky~!" Kiara dims one of her LED eyes in an imitation of a wink. Best to find somewhere somewhat private to do this at.
You stop by one of the many abandoned buildings on your way towards the warehouse. Luckily, it's one of the few buildings in this part of the slums without a lock on it. You usher in Casey (with Clover and Kiara as her bodyguards just in case) inside so she can change.
There wasn't anyone inside thankfully so the two are back out in only a few minutes. The outfit Casey stole actually looks pretty good on her. A starry black musketeer's uniform with sparkling dots all over it tightly clings to her body as if it was made just for her. The mask hides away Casey's face completely, with the only thing visible on the mask being similar sparkling dots.
The intimidating impact it might've had is lessened because 1.) you know it's Casey and 2.) she still has to wear her rags over it to keep up some pretense of a disguise.
"Delicious." Casey giggles like a young schoolgirl.
Kiara, meanwhile, doesn't look distinctly different but it's clear she upgraded herself somehow. Her metallic chassis has a slightly shinier sheen to it.
>CASEY has equipped MASK OF ONYX DARKNESS, STARSKY MUSKETEER UNIFORM, and MOONLIGHT RAPIER! She now has 3/4 FLESH, 2/6 RESTRAINT, 8 TALENT, and 7 CHARM! She is no longer in KNIGHTHOOD S-CORP REINFORCED CERMAIC BODYARMOR!
>KIARA has consumed the two remaining WATERLOGGED SILVER WALKIE TALKIES to gain +1 MAX RESTRAINT! She now has 5 RESTRAINT and now has HUX-A7-OVERDRIVE MODULE installed!
That RESTRAINT she has is pretty low. Even if that mask will protect her from the passive mental strain this place inflicts, it's not like that's the only way to lose your sanity. Hm. More and more things to worry about.
