[ does not movement mean the hall is empty, or are there patrons that are just vibing in place?
regardless, whisper will continue to move inwards, slowly and carefully. if the hall leads to the bar, i suppose that's where she's going: anything glowing or giving off nice ambient light? does the bar look normal if it can be made out at all? ]
[Well, now Hans is feeling lucky so he'll continue scampering along the ceiling at a decent clip, taking out his remaining stick to test the air immediately in front of him for traps, and presumably not far enough out to hit ceiling lights or anybody super tall like a giraffe or whatever.
He's pretty well adjusted to the dark, so I guess it's down to whether the treasure glows in the dark or is otherwise flashy enough to give off any kind of aura; since they don't know how long they'll have for this, he's going straight for it as best he can.
Per his mental map and the ability to be spotted from outside, hopefully it isn't too far to jackpot?]
However, the lights come back on and they can now see that the lasers are once again surrounding the treasure. Now that they're not all plunged in darkness, they can see the silver for what it is. A silver container full of Ultimate Curry that the group feels is their ultimate treasure.
The laser alarms are once again present, now that things have kicked back on. Hans is lucky enough none of them go to the ceiling, but they do surround the curry.
[ oh hey. that's what whisper is going to do. would she and nico be able to make an opening big enough for hans to grab the curry if they're able to redirect enough of the beams? ]
[Wao, he feels like he's seeing infinity of himself with all these lasers and mirrors surrounding him...... Also he definitely has to stifle a cackle at seeing the prize. Go figure.
What Hans is going to do with the lights on is find the nearest sturdy-looking ceiling fixture -- whether it's a particularly big ceiling light or a ceiling decoration or beam or whatever -- and quick-tie some rope around it so he can potentially lower himself if the lasers allow it.
It really doesn't help that the curry is just in an open container, but he's got steady hands (paws) at the very least.]
[ Luck is ever in your favor today. It is possible to use a protrusion on the ceiling to get down to the bar. With Nico and Whisper angling the mirrors to give him the opening, he can easily lift the curry away from its placement.
Nobody else is in here at the moment, but they'll need to get past the security outside the nightclub. ]
[ good thinking, hans. he seems pleased that this is working so far, and he's kind of curious why this curry is the ultimate treasure.
but it's fine. they have the curry and now they just have to get back out. the lights being out helped in that moment, but he's going to take a look around the bar. is there a back door or an emergency exit nearby? what's the actual state of the bar? does there appear to be anything on the counters or anything that may be of use to them? ]
...how good are you at climbing one-handed? If we can sneak it across the ceiling, we can cause a distraction to get us out of the club.
Nyahihihi... Could be no-handed if I'm of the mind.
[Which is to say, he's perfectly fine with staying up on the ceiling, though with how up-and-down their luck is he's going to at least use three limbs! That said, Hans will join Nico in scouring the bar -- mostly he's looking for a lid for this damn thing or anything that could act as a lid, and also something like a cloth or bar towel or whatever to cover it up, make it easier to hide and transport.
A pat at his pack with their default supplies, though, once Whisper speaks up.]
We still got them smoke bombs and caltrops and all meownner o' things to get us clear. My guess's they ain't recovered from the shut off yet, either.
[So they should get going if they can find either another exit or some way to secure the treasure or simply a decision to go back the way they came.]
[ The state of the bar is... it looks clean. But there are napkins and there's some lids for drinks. Nothing exactly the size of the container, but they could feasibly use a cloth napkin to ensure it doesn't spill. Several shot glasses stacked up on one end, and there's a hose that would spray water... probably.
There is a way over to the Island Bar and Casino on the water. Much of the water that people encountered had raccoon traps within them. ]
Maybe let's not do no-handed yet. [ but he thinks this through, watching hans look around and letting him decide their best method of transport. since he does not really know about the water traps from before, he says: ]
Think we can either go the way we came and hope for a big enough distraction, or we can cut through the water. Whatever we think is fastest to get back to the car.
Water's full o' traps, if ya feel like takin' that risk.
[His tone says he could go either way on it, but we've established that he is a thrill seeker and ridiculous by now. While they're talking, Hans snags some napkins and a badly-sized lid, and sort of jerry rigs them together to make one functioning lid-like implement, that he then secures with a good length of rope and knots.
Then he's going to very quickly cut a piece out of his own outfit to wrap the ensemble in to make it less conspicuous -- good thing his outfit already looks kind of tattered and outlandish, so really, having a bit missing isn't that big a deal.
He's going to start moving towards the exit. Time's a-wasting.]
But they ain't got any idea who they're lookin' for apart from Whisper. If we get the smoke down right, they still won't know an' we can hit the crowd to get out.
[ well. he was going to scale the wall again but that obviously is not an option with the roll of 2, and the roll of 7 means he's not exactly primed to dart past whoever may be coming. so instead, he's grabbing his smoke pellets and also the rope. worst case scenario, maybe he can quickly set up a trap to clothesline whoever the fuck. ]
Time's up then. Are you two ready? [ ready for WHAT. they have enough smoke pellets they might be able to move and cloud their visitors' vision multiple times. ]
[ whisper is going to prepare the caltrops - if they're able to get past once they get the smoke down, she is going to try to make it harder to be pursued. ]
By which I mean Hans is going to start this operation with a meeeow and a smoke pellet lob -- which, unfortunately, clips a ceiling light and lands right in front of them. This is going well! Fumbling in general means he also sliiiides down from the ceiling to a wall, but he doesn't stop moving -- he's apparently vanguarding this, because why not.
Plan C means he might be seen, but he has enough rope that he'll go for using it to lasso anything within reach -- ideally, that would be any picture frames on the wall, but he'll also go for the shot glasses or a chair or something -- and sling it directly at roughly face-level of whoever's coming.
If smoke ain't doing it, try literally anything else so he can get past.]
The smoke pellet obscures everybody's vision. Nobody here got a look at these faces, the group is currently inhaling smoke and coughing from it, and the chair is currently being thrown at these people. The chair hits the target despite everything, but the other person triggers an alarm.
Sirens begin. There's several more footsteps approaching in a hurry. ]
well you know what, this is actually better because he sort of works best under chaos so! there is smoke obscuring everyone's vision but he's quickly moving to try and run through it and relying mostly on what he's able to hear to clear a path for himself and whisper on the ground.
you know what he doesn't actually need. this fucking pair of pliers as per the roll of 1. so he's going to take them and chuck them against a nearby wall with a roll of 10. he's mostly hoping the sound distracts whoever's rushing at them to throw them off and rush behind them.
he then does the same with the scissors, tossing them in a separate direction away from himself and whisper with a 13.
when in doubt though, he will also throw another smoke pellet if anyone gets too close, expecting whisper to take care of herself. ]
[ WHISPER IS NYOOMIN although she is not the fastest thing alive:tm: so she is mostly doing her best to keep up. coughing from the smoke does not help, but she covers her mouth with her hand to keep it suppressed.
as they make their getaway, she is going to throw some caltrops towards the oncoming footsteps with my surprisingly lucky roll of 18. between that and nico's quick thinking with the pliers, hopefully that can offer them enough opportunity to get out. hans, too, but he's still on the ceiling so this does not concern him (sorry hans). ]
[Hans is actually still on the wall because he has not successfully regained the ceiling with all the smoke and the necessity of slingshotting a chair across the room -- but that still means he's safe from caltrops. Nico yeeting everything and the kitchen sink does not hit him, though it's close. The scissors like, whiff through his hair going past.
Luckily, before the noise can give him away he darts forward and I don't know, throws the best-aimed smoke pellet of all time as he approaches the exit??? I don't know what's happening with this nat 20 smoke pellet, but it sure is smoking and hopefully will get him away from incoming and existing security somehow.
Either way, he's aiming to dive into the crowd as soon as possible and with as few people as possible the wiser.]
[ The thrown smoke pellet perfectly obscures their escape. The bunny's eyes are watering behind his glasses, and he does attempt to shoot at his retreating back. He misses wildly and nails some random person with an orange paintball.
Then Nico runs off, and the security do make for the noises that his thrown items went. He can hear a few pained noises as they step on the caltrops that Whisper leaves behind. ]
[ lmao x2. bye forever. he's going to cover his mouth with his arm to suppress a cough of his own as they continue bailing, immersing themselves with the crowd to get the hell out of dodge. he does at least make sure whisper is close enough so they don't lose her, also keeping an eye on hans to watch where he's diving to escape.
how close are they to the nearest exit, and how easily can they get there now that they've escaped the bar? ]
[ whisper is not far behind nico. she remembers where she entered, and while hans said to not exit the way they entered... it'd be easy. she is already somewhat familiar with where that entrance is, compared to the other one exiting onto wynn boulevard. ]
I will go this way, to the garage.
[ she is diverting course to ollie outtie. see ya. ]
