First up, we need to talk about Windscale. Was his performance 'sufficient', or should we plan out some long-term 'discipline training' for him? Because seriously, he's OP but his arrogance nearly got him and the rest of the party killed.

Second, you're looking into more advanced armors, but right now there's a general dearth. You've upped the base's general firepower for the moment, so future tactics are going to be mainly "shoot first and reload when they're dead."

And onto personal matters. Is there anything she needs? A specific roommate, special quarters, et cetera? What's she planning to do for retirement?

Race track or Art show

Talk about team leadership, Kayree is may be retiring soon, Yiann is next highest but might not be up to it, which leaves Qay is next highest ranked C.Org

Qay probably wants to do something fun but if we go somewhere with a huge crowd she's gonna get swarmed because of her hot hot bod, so I think the pool bar is best

I don't think talking about the mission would be fun for qay she seems self-conscious about the war crimes

With the way the votes are swinging I think shooting some pool at the Other Bar is probably the best bet.

(You're using the female body)

You decide to take Qay to the pool.

>Qay is very excited to go to the pool!

"Dang! That sounds like a lot of fun!"

On the way, you discuss several cool ocean animals. Qay doesn't seem to know much about aquatic life but enjoys the facts you share.

"I think it'd be pretty awesome to go scuba diving one day. Maybe touch a jellyfish? Maybe eat a jellyfish? Huh? Huh?"

You ask her about Danovin.

"I like him! He can be a bit too serious though. I like to joke around a bit more than he does. He also talks about the shark girl Rockit a lot. He's really into her. She sounds fun!

>Qay likes talking about her roommate.

You bring up the recent requisition purchases to make the team more effective.

>Qay doesn't seem particularly interested in "talking shop."

She is interested when you bring up Windscale, though.

"I've got no complaints about him," she says. "That mission would have gone way different if he hadn't been around. As far as I'm concerned, adding him to your troops was definitely the right decision."

>Qay will generally speak positively to other C.Orgs about Windscale.

When you ask her if she needs anything in particular, she says she's generally happy with how things are, and seems to appreciate being asked.

You talk about Kayree's retirement and a possible gap in leadership in her absence.

"You're going to let her retire?"

The fact that you talk about it as a foregone conclusion makes her look at you with obvious respect.

"The parrot guy has been here much longer than me. I don't really know the other C.Orgs very well. I don't think I'd be a good fit for a leadership role." It seems she hadn't really thought about that much, though.

You reach the pool.

It's a large, indoor pool with a main shared swimming area, some hot tubs off to one side, and a wave pool. Qay seems very excited to be here!

"Let's go get changed into our swimsuits! I bet you'll like mine!"

What kind of swimsuit do you put on?

A) Normal Bikini
B) Conservative One Piece.
C) Skimpy Bikini
D) Slingshot Bikini
E) Swim Trunks, a Bikini Top, and a T-shirt

AND where do you take her first?

1) Big pool
2) Hot tub
3) Wave pool

In the meantime, what do you chat with her about to keep the conversation going?

one piece, and wave pool

ask if she really thinks Fucc would be fit for leadership

E, wave pool.
Speculate about other weird stuff that might be edible. And surfing.

skimpy, wave pool

>>1107525
You're kidding, of course. Yiann's got the most experience, but you're also considering Rockit for the role.
Kayree hasn't outright stated her retirement plans, so Qay shouldn't gossip too much. All you know is that Kayree said she's planning something important - and she doesn't like us now, so leaving the company may be what she has in mind. After what we did, it's understandable, so you'd rather grant her whatever her big project is than let the current morale nightmare spiral into losing half the C.Orgs on the spot.

A.
3! Wave pools are awesome.
(In regards to the leader role, Sinthee might have the right personality judging by the roommate report. Maybe ViiVeean once she has Gregarious.)

On the subject of roommates, apologize for Zarah being horrible to her. Zarah has... problems, and you couldn't convince her to be nice to her roommates. You're not sure what to do, long term; Zarah can't stand being alone and you don't want to be cruel to her.

I'm going to recommend *not* downplaying Kayree's retirement goals since she obviously wants to and Rockit seems to appreciate that we *aren't* trying to toss up roadblocks. Also not negging ourselves for no reason.

Admire her sheen

(You're using the female body)

Feeling daring today, you decide to go for the skimpy bikini.

Qay comes out in a skimpy orange bikini with a crab design.

>Qay loves that your bikini choice matches hers!

"Hey! You look super cute!"

You admire her sheen and tell her she looks cute as well.

The two of you come out of the changing room and head right for the wave pool

>This is Qay's favorite activity!

>Qay is loving the date so far!

Of course, she's a much stronger swimmer than you are, dipping, ducking and diving in the waves. The two of you chat while you frolic.

You ask if you really think Fucc would be a good commander.

"Oh, I mean, I don't know him very well. I don't really know any of my team mates very well. That's my point. You'd really want somebody who knows everybody. Kayree knows everybody. She came by to say hi to me when I first joined. The bird's just been around longer than me, that's all I was saying."

You speculate about weird ocean things and how edible they could be.

"Yeah I mean, I probably won't get cool venom powers by eating jellyfish like my natural cousins do. I'd probably need gene points for that."

You ask her about surfing. She mostly seems to be swimming in the waves.

"Oh, I love my body, but most feet-and-leg activities don't work very well for me. That's fine though! I can ride waves with just my body!"

You ask her about her opinion on Rockit.

"Well, she's got gorgeous hair. She seems a little timid to me. Not to sound like a broken record, but I don't know her very well."

You talk about Kayree again, and that she has some kind of plan.

"She's been talking to a lot of the more senior C.Orgs and the support staff," Qay says. "I don't really know about what, though."

You tell her that you trust Kayree and will most likely support her plan, whatever it is. You don't intend to impede her retirement at all, even if it means she wants to leave the unit.

"I really don't think she plans on leaving," Qay says.

>Qay loves the trust you place on your C.Orgs and that you seem to be enthusiastic about Kayree retiring.

You tell her you're sorry she had to room with Zarah. You're not sure what to do with her long-term. She has some serious problems though and can't stand being alone. You don't want to be cruel to her.

Qay frowns. "She said absolutely horrible things to me." She seems to have no sympathy whatsoever for Zarah. "Not just rude. Downright cruel. And she touched me very inappropriately. Frankly, I don't care about her problems."

Qay is a very strong swimmer, diving into the big waves and frolicking, then sweeping by the shallower areas to take breaks.
Do you:

A) try to keep up with her physically
B) splash around near her but don't do anything crazy
C) stay near the shallower areas and watch her have fun, chatting when she takes breaks
D) try to get her to go to the hot tub
E) try to get her to go to the big main pool

And how do you keep the conversation going?

>>1107531
B, but... test how this body works in the water. How long can you hold your breath? How fast can you swim? That sort of thing.

Ask her if she likes anime. Got our foot in the door, let's find out if she's a good match or if this ship is sunk before we get too deep. What about more mainstream movies? Books?

B) ask what she thinks about Anime.
Anime is very important to sempai

E, we could muck about with pool floats while she swims around in calmer seas.
It's a cool body, having legs is overrated. Take it from someone who doesn't have them usually!
That Nakken guy's sticking around, I hear! I wonder if his reasons for defecting were practical or ideological.

A might lose our swimsuit this way for lols)

>>1107536
Actually, yeah A. Use it while you've got it!

B
Play it safe!

>>1107531
A, find out how far this body can go.

You more or less try to keep up with her without going too crazy. You're in a biological human body that's in peak physical condition, but Qay is a genetically engineered super-organism. Still, you push yourself pretty hard.

While the two of you are playing around, you ask her what sort of entertainment she likes: Anime, movies, books, and Anime. First, you ask her what she thinks about anime in general.

>Qay likes you staying near her.

"I really like cool animation, and anime stuff usually has really well-animated fight scenes."

You ask her about what she's watched so far and what she likes.

"I've seen Star Bug," she says. She also lists a few other series you'd describe as 'mid to OK.' Apparently, several anime have been making the rounds among the C.Orgs.

"As far as movies, I like action-comedies and cartoons, but I did find some of these avant-garde animated movies I really like. Danovin didn't like them, though."

She dives down to the bottom of the pool and then rockets back to the surface, breaching and falling back onto her side like a dolphin.

"I mostly read webcomics." She names a few that you definitely haven't heard of.

You ask him about Nakken, the fox that you exfiltrated. You ask what she thinks of him and why he defected.

"Well, I was impressed by how serious he was during the mission. He reloaded Danovin's rocket as soon as he was next to him without anyone telling him to do that, and then fearlessly took the shortest path down from the roof."

She does an entire backflip out of the waves. The splash when her lower body hits is enormous.

"We did talk a little during the debrief. He can't stand living in that society. Apparently he was friends with a whisperwoman who wanted to help a human escape, along with the whisperwoman's daughter. Something went really wrong though. He just wanted to get away from it."

Just when you think you're probably going way too hard for the skimpy outfit you're wearing, a massive wave crashes into you and you find yourself traveling rapidly toward the bottom of the pool while you try to keep your top on with no success. You try to swim toward it and then rapidly realize you aren't sure which way is up and you really need to take a breath.

Right before things get actually bad, though, some slick, smooth arms wrap around you and the water rushes past impossibly fast before you find yourself on the beach in Qay's arms.

>Qay's heart is beating fast!

You quickly cover yourself with your hands, and you see your bikini top held in Qay's hand. The one pressed against your thigh.

That's probably enough swimming! Qay looks like she's willing to keep the date going, though.

A)Get some food with her at the pool. There's some stands over to one side.
B)That was exhausting! Go lounge next to the pool.
C)Ask Qay if she wants to go to your room.
D)Qay might want to keep going, but you don't. End the date.
E)Leave the pool to go to another location (other than your room).

Of course, you also need to keep the conversation going.

A. Meatball sammich, see if she can compete with Rockit in massacres.

Thanks for catching me! You were very quick on the assist.
C. Could look for another avant-garde movie to watch together.
Next time we come here, let's try the big pool. Lots of space to swim around, we could say hi to some other c. orgs, maybe toss some beach balls.

B) Take a break before you eat.

Does your heroic rescuer want a kiss?

A, gotta get food on a date!
Tell her that backflip was really impressive.

File 174801727468.jpg - (1.92MB , 2000x1500 , Sexcom149.jpg )

You decide it's a good idea to get some food.

>Qay could definitely eat.

The two of you head over to the lounges, Qay carrying you a bit longer than strictly necessary, and you suggest a meatball sub, to which Qay readily agrees.

For as large as she is, and as impressively massive as the meatball sub they give her is, her mouth is shockingly small, and two-fisting a sloppy meatball sub isn't precisely the cleanest way to eat. You watch a single meatball descent, bounce off her breast, and roll onto the floor. It barely touches the tile before some random C.Org snatches it up and pops it into her mouth. Qay doesn't seem to notice, though.

You praise her for her quick reaction and also tell her how impressive her backflip was.

>Qay seems to really enjoy the compliments.

"Oh, well, you know, I'm gonna look out for my commander, of course!" she says with marinara and cheese smeared all over her face, neck and chest. And hands. And forearms.

"Next time we go," you say, "We'll try out the big pool."

"Next time? We're going on another date?"

>Qay seems excited by the prospect.

"And of course, My heroic rescuer deserves a kiss!"

The skin of her cheek is marinara-flavored, slick and smooth. She's at a loss for words.

A. You know what goes well with food? Booze!
B. Now is time to relax. The two of you would be more comfortable in your room.
C. Qay might be more comfortable hanging out in her room.
D. Honestly, this is the perfect end to a great date!

If you want the date to continue, you'll have to have some conversation with her, though. If you don't really have anything else to talk with her about, the date will come to a natural conclusion.

>>1108465
D. Always leave 'em wanting more

C. I wanna see her streaming setup! That's how Improved Lustrous Coat makes money, right?
I also wanna see what kind of room decorations she's got. Plushies, posters, maybe some kind of other collection?
Does she play video games while streaming, or is it just a chat interaction type thing? Or is it something other than video games? Could be art, or a "comment on videos" type thing... No judgement regardless, heck you'd do the same if your body was anything special.

(and if she seems like she wants to make out that's good too)

D) It's been going strangely well, let's end the date here before we flub something

The best thing is to quit while you're ahead.

Qay nods.

As you walk back toward the residential area, you do ask Qay exactly how she makes money with Improved Lustrous Coat.

"Oh, you know, I just got it, so I'm still setting things up and all," she says. Shockingly vague.

>The date went extremely well! You have a firm supporter in Qay. Her room mate has a chance to like you more if they get along with her.

Now it's time to pick a mission!

Suburban Commando
A group of raiders has firmly entrenched themselves at the border of Gray Lake and have started kidnapping civilians.
Difficulty: Hard.
Opposing Force: Cult of Pure Love
Mission Type: Elimination
Special Danger: Enemies attack from ambush
Special Reward: Bonus Gene Points

Step 1: Revenge!
Corporate cultists are attempting to steal a powerful grimoire from the public library's restricted section.
Difficulty: Hard
Mission Type: Defend the objective
Opposing Force: Corporate Cultists and demons
Special Danger: must defend the objective for 5 turns
Special Reward: Learn a unique Rite

Heavy Petting Zoo
The Cult of the End has taken over a nature preserve just outside the city and captured several C.Orgs.
Difficulty: Hard.
Opposing Force: Cult of the End with altered animals
Mission Type: Rescue VIPs
Special Danger: Civilians present
Special Reward: Bonus Requisition

C.Orgs from Unit 8 failed to defend the city outskirts.

C.Orgs from Unit 1 failed to defeat the Cult of the End and some were captured!

You'll be able to select your C.Orgs and equip them after you select the mission.

>Views the roster results
...We are so dysfunctional right now.

>Mission selection
...What's Windscale's current health like? Because I think we can

>Public Library has a Restricted Section with cultist rituals
...*facepalm* Let's stop them.

We should take on the Zoo. Show the other Units we meant it when we said we wanted to protect the C.Orgs.
(Should recover some PR from the Windscale thing)

A restricted section? That's not very public, is it?
Petting Zoo. We won't let those C. orgs suffer for long.

Heavy Petting Zoo

solidarity, also the better the other units are the less guilt we have to feel about the missions we don't take. Lets get those corgs back in service.

Hmm. Demon roommates will try to convince our C.orgs to kill their Binder, huh? Maybe Initiates aren't worth having if we have to worry about infighting on top of the other tradeoffs. There are probably MORE negatives that we have yet to discover as well. I think I'm abandoning any plans to make a second Initiate.
...I don't suppose the retraining center could be used to turn Noot back into a regular soldier?

>>1108527
Petting Zoo. It's the most important one for SEXCOM operations; if the captured C.Orgs aren't rescued, then Unit 1 is crippled. Our roster is pretty strong at this point, and not having Windscale isn't the worst for this mission since there are civilians present and that would make his breath harder to aim.

You take on the [b]Heavy Petting Zoo[/i] mission.

The Cult of the End use cybernetically advanced human soldiers with high Calm and heavy armor. It appears that they're trying to make their own version of C.Orgs out of animals in the nature preserve using various surgical and chemical methods.

The goal is to kill the Cult of the End soliders and rescue the captured C.Orgs, as well as avoiding collateral damage and civilian casualties.

Choose which troops to bring and what to equip them with.

You can bring four characters, with a fifth one being held in reserve if you so choose.

Ixander can't be assigned to a misson or task.
Winscale is wounded and should rest.

Kayree would like to go.

The Lightning Gun is a heavy weapon that is especially effective against cyborgs

One C.Org can bring Bloodfire, a stim that immediately removes shaken and panic and excites the unit

If Noot goes on the mission, Tiffany will be included as well and not count against the units you bring. She can use a Blood Plasma Gun and cannot wear armor or bring an item.

Units other than Windscale who stay behind can perform one of the following tasks:

ViiVeean can work with Mary for a possible bonus Gene Point

Rockit can work with Nurse Joannifer for a free stim or combat drug

Zarah can perform a Rite

Anyone else can interrogate your remaining Corporate Sorcerer for potential magical insight.

Someone must maintain Tiffany's enclosure

Anyone can Investigate the pee mystery to possibly gain more clues. Chose either Unit 1 or Unit 2 to investigate.

Kayree
Assault Rifle
Improved Plate Carrier
Trauma Kit

Zarah
Forked Catalyst
Agility Frame
Trauma Kit

Baetriss
Sniper Rifle
Mule Armor
Scope

Rockit
Energy Katana + Revolver (or a shotgun)
Improved Plate Carrier
Bloodfire

Reserve
Cymdee
Large LMG
Ammo Hopper

We need to start with precision and non-lethal options, but Yiann will act as Plan B in case the cultists managed to create a goliath or a swarm.

I think we should wait for a Normal-difficulty mission before we try Tiffany... and wait for her to stop demanding murder.

Viiveean should definitely work with Mary

>>1108541
Can we send a message to Tiffany telling her if she tries to convince her handler/roommate to murder someone again, she's going to be executed? It would be very easy to get her killed on a mission, even if we can't execute her officially. This is behavior we cannot tolerate. As for other attempts at sabotage, those will be punished in ways to be determined based on the severity of the offense.

ViiVeean should work with Mary again.
Rockit can work with Joannifer again (I hope Joannifer behaves... Rockit is really having a bad string of luck with this one-sided romance. Makes me wonder if she's asexual.)
Zarah should teach Noot the Evil Eye sign.
Qay should maintain the enclosure.
Eilie should investigate the pee mystery, target Unit 2.
Fucc can investigate the pee mystery, target unit 1.
Sinthee can interrogate the sorc.

Squad:
Kayree
Assault Rifle+
Trauma Kit
Improved Plate

Baetriss
sniper rifle, Lightning Gun
Battery Pack
Agility Frame

Danovin
Energy Katana, Capture Foam Gun
Grenade
Improved Plate

Cymdee
Large LMG
ammo hopper
no heavy armor :(

Yiann in reserve
Large Rocket Launcher
rockets
no heavy armor :(

Kayree: Assault Rifle (naturally), improved plate, trauma kit. She is an expert, and these are her tools.
Fucc: Shotgun, improved plate, free Bloodfire dose. A curious eye and a strong beak should help us open cages and the like.
Baetriss: Lightning gun, Sniper Rifle, mule armor, battery pack, scope. She'll stay in the back and zap/snipe priority targets.
Cymdee: katana + capture foam, ballistic Shield. Remember, we need some new cultists to play with.
Sinthee (reserve): Stinger rifle, camo suit, stun prod. Could need a nonlethal option for any C. orgs that have already been experimented on.

Other duties:
Rockit, cleaning Tiffany's cage. I think she probably could use a break from Joannifer.
Danovin, sniff out the pee bandit. Investigate unit 2, if they were in unit 1 they may be one of the captives.
Qay can interrogate the sorcerer.
Zarah can do a rite with Noot to teach him the Evil Eye.
Viivee should work with Mary.

Oh wait, changing my suggestion. Yiann should have an Assault Rifle and a Trauma Kit. No point in bringing a backup medic without their tools, even if the large rocket launcher sounds really stupid good.

Ahh, another change: Cymdee should carry the Large Rocket Launcher, because she won't be able to use LMG skills while underwater...

You deploy at the gates of the nature reserve, the signs of Cult of the End occupation readily apparent. The sounds and smells of nature are disturbed by ozone, oil and blood, and strange calls and cries echo from among the trees past the gate.

The barrier around the reserve can be seen through but can't be damaged. Several large shipping containers are visible, along with several Cult soldiers and a Cyber Bear. A troop crouching behind a hedge seems to have some kind of large radio device on its back. A proper machine gun is set up in the ticket booth.

Fucc's curiosity makes it apparent that he can break open the door to the ticket booth or either shipping container door with his beak.

Haha, they have this entrance so heavily defended, they won't be expecting us to use the front door!

K: Burst fire on machine gun position. Regular shot on the shipping container cultist.
B: Move up behind Cymdee, Use lightning gun on the cybear. If you don't have line of sight, wait for it.
C: Move up to draw overwatch, capture foam the radio cultist.
F: Move up to shed, blast that cultist behind the shipping container or cy-bear in order of still-aliveness.

Correction, the radio guy is behind the far hedge. Katana the nearby cultist instead.

Alright, Cymdee, let's see what you've got!

Cymdee: move to the cultist shooter just to the left of the bushes. Kill.
Baetriss: Shoot the machine gunner.
Kayree: Use Animal Senses to figure out all unknowns. Try to shoot a gunner!
Fucc: Advance to the building, shoot the gunner on your right!

Kayree use animal senses to try to detect what's in the shipping containers. Hostiles or VIPs?
Then she should shoot that guy who's standing out in the open like an idiot. Burst fire to debuff his accuracy, since he looks within rushing range.

Baetriss should start out prone. If she has line of sight on any mechanicals from her position, she should fire with the lightning gun. Killing the tree sniper would be great. For future rounds, would the lightning gun have good accuracy on that fortified machine gun? Zap the wielder through the gun itself? Second action is melee Lookout. Those melee enemies are going to rush in, so we need to prep for it.

Cymdee should move to Kayree's side and melee Lookout to guard that side as well.

Fucc should stick behind Baetriss, fire on the cultist behind that shipping container twice.

Kayree: Burst fire on machine gun position. Regular shot on the shipping container cultist.
Fucc: Blast cultist behind hedge, prepare overwatch to shoot anything that comes close.
Cymdee: Move up towards the shed to draw overwatch, capture foam the machine gunner. If it doesn't get him, it might at least jam the gun.
Baetriss: Got line of sight on the radio user? Zap him with the lightning gun. Zap the axe guy, too.

*Burst fire on log sniper. And this is a revision to plan >>1108601

Kayree: use your senses, try to deduce what's in the containers

Cymdee: sprint across to Kayree's side, with your shield up, to draw fire

Fucc: Shoot the closest target, at the container, then fall back into cover

Baetriss: Take a shot at the machine gunner, there must be some gap for them to see out

Wait, can Cymdee move between the fence and the nearest container? Going there would most likely cause the Cyber Bear to attack her there, and she can Lookout there instead to guard our right side. From that position, only that guy behind the tree could fire on her, so it's a pretty good spot, and then next turn she should be able to move to all sorts of useful spots.

Ah, and I forgot Baetriss would have to holster a weapon to use melee. She should put away the Sniper Rifle for the melee Lookout, since... well, everything here has cybernetics anyway so the Lighting Gun is better.
