Elliot grumbled. "And yet the door still stands."

Though the rocket had yet to be shot, none of the constant damage being done on the door seemed to do much in the way of breaking through it. One of the shotgun blasts ended up smashing the control pad, shooting out a flash of sparks as a result.

"Oh for crying-..." Krystal sighed. "Would someone stop this mad maniac?"

@Raptor Jesus @Anyone

“Yeah uh, good luck, lady. Once Sarge is in his frenzy mode like this, it’ll take an entire other army to calm him down.”

@Raptor Jesus @Siege​

Despite the fact that the door didn’t budge, Sarge continued shooting at the door. It didn’t even seem like he cared if it opened or not, but more so that he just wanted something to shoot at.

Yeah, someone better stop him.

Krystal sighed annoyingly. She had tried whacking him with her staff. Twice. She was clueless of what to do...

[Takumi]

“Honor schmonor! As a soldier, I keep ky weapon in hand at all times! It’s in the Red handbook, for crying out loud!” Sarge exclaimed, keeping his weapon in hand despite Viktor’s protests.
​

“Yes! Let’s blow these Goddamn doors to hell! Those dirty Blues won’t know what hit em!” Sarge exclaimed, wholeheartedly agreeing with Starscream’s sentiment of blowing the doors down. However, he wasn’t as reasonable as the robot, so he began to rapidly shoot at the doors with his shotgun.

“I LOVE BLOOD AND VIOLENCE!!!

I’VE GOT A BONER FOR MURDER!!!”

"What's a boner?" Stardust asked as she watched the failed attempts at opening the door so far. "You guys sure it'll work?"


Meiji looked just about done with everything now. She kept Stardust from leaving their little group to go near the whackos wanting to blow up the door, whether it worked or not.

"Everyone stand back!"

Starscream unleashed his missiles, causing him to be pushed to the very back of the room via launch impact and for them to explode upon the door's crevices.

"Now is it standing?"

@Yun Lee @Gakupo @Raptor Jesus @Everyone​

“A boner is something guys get when they see someone attractive.” Grif paused for a moment and looked over to Sarge as he continued to shoot at the door.

“...or in Sarge’s case it’s when he’s just shooting at random shit.”

@Atomic Knight @York @Siege @Raptor Jesus @Takumi​

As Sarge was pushed to the back of the room from the sheer force of the missile, he seemed to snap out of his little episode after falling onto the ground. Sarge soon stood up with his shotgun in hand, staring at the door and heavily anticipating the smoke clearing.

“Did we get it?” He asked as he awaited the smoke to clear.

"I think a boner means you really like something! For example: I have boners for carrots!"

"No you don't. You don't at all."

@Takumi​

“Can girls even get boners? I mean... maybe if they tried hard enough then they could somehow replicate that feeling or...”

“I’m reading too deep into this, aren’t I?”

“Grif, I didn’t think I could be more disappointed in you than I already was, yet you managed to find a way. Congratu-fucking-lations, dirtbag.”

@Raptor Jesus @anyone

“Honor schmonor! As a soldier, I keep my weapon in hand at all times! It’s in the Red handbook, for crying out loud!” Sarge exclaimed, keeping his weapon in hand despite Viktor’s protests.

"Tch. So be it, Sergeant," Viktor responded in a patronizing tone.

He wasn't at all surprised at Sarge's second refusal. The Machine Herald was very familiar with the ignorance of humans. Nevertheless, so long as Sarge doesn't cause any more trouble with another member of the group, the cyborg and sentient robot would have no qualms with him holding a weapon--

“Yes! Let’s blow these Goddamn doors to hell! Those dirty Blues won’t know what hit em!” Sarge exclaimed, wholeheartedly agreeing with Starscream’s sentiment of blowing the doors down. However, he wasn’t as reasonable as the robot, so he began to rapidly shoot at the doors with his shotgun.

“I LOVE BLOOD AND VIOLENCE!!!

I’VE GOT A BONER FOR MURDER!!!”

...Well. Not even Viktor expected that.​

 

[Kaykay]

「Huh? You don't even know that? Every high school student should know that though, right?」Kumagawa said in reply to Stardust, though it was hard to tell if he legitimately couldn't tell if she was a robot or not.

He also didn't seem to be too worried about the possibility of being stuck here, without food or water. There was only a slight glance towards the explosions and racket at the door before he looked back at the group he'd wandered into after the situation with Nathan had fizzled out. When Gumi spoke up, however, he raised a hand to his chin.

「Well, she's not totally wrong, purple-hair.」

@Takumi @Yun Lee @etc​

 

[Atomic Knight]

As the dust cleared, the group could see that the door had been damaged but had not been broken through. The room was made of sturdy stuff indeed.

At hearing the boner talk, Elliot grumbled. "A shame the rocket did not kill us," he said.

❝ Well, this sucks. ❞ Flower groaned at the non-progress they were making right about now, even though she didn't exactly know what was on the other side of the door.

She had a subtle chuckle at Gumi's comment, however. Guess she knew what that word actually meant.

@Raptor Jesus @Takumi @Yun Lee @Siege @Otto @Crow @ppl​

 

[Space_Candy]

Nathan stood up, looking at the door in annoyance, his calm mood rushing into anger rather quickly.

"Are you fucking kidding me!?" he yelled, walking angrily to the door.

"Fuck this door! Fuck this place!" he was enraged now, pointing his gun at the door.

@Anyone?/Everyone? idk

 

[Yun Lee]

Gakupo promptly grabbed Gumi and shuffled her back to their little group. "Gumi, you're not allowed to talk to any of these people ever again."

"Awww, but I'm having fun! Learning new words, too! I don't get why bone-mmph!"

Gakupo covered Gumi's mouth and looked to all the Vocaloids around him. "Never, EVER, use that word, girls. Trust me. Only perverts use it."

Gumi pulled Gakupo's hand down. "Perverts like you, yeah?"

"...I can't believe I'm saying this, but I'm with you on the whole rocket thing, Elliot."

[Lucky]

Peter Quill

" I am sure that some honey would make it feel better. I have not seen anything that happened to make it worse," he said. He paused and noticed the broken keypad and walked over to where it was and examined it. Maybe he could pull some wires. "I don't think cursing the door will help much," he said to Nathan.

@Atomic Knight @Space_Candy @Yun Lee @Minerva

 

[Space_Candy]

Nathan looked back at Quill, still frustrated.

"I can shoot it!" he knew it was stupid and irrational, but the gun was all he had.

"Progress," Starscream smiled as he walked towards the door and scratched the damaged area with his nails, "this barrier is sturdy indeed, but how sturdy is it, truly? Especially after my beating upon it."

Starscream turns to the others as a missile reloads.

"It would be rather impolite for me to have all the fun. Why not we see what all of you are capable of? This door isn't going to break itself, after all," Starscream moves out of the way to allow others to unleash their strikes on the already worn-out portions of the door, while waiting for the appropriate time to unleash a second strike.

"You're panicking a bit too hard, boy," Starscream places his hand on Nathan's shoulder, "a sliver of hope and a sign of our fruits of labour paying off are before us. Do what you can to help, now will you?"

Spoiler: Replies

"Well, there's nothing stopping us from combining our plans together."

Starscream walks up, and should Emily's prying be a success, he would extend and stick his missiles, still attached to his hand, into the crevices, with a good three-quarters of the missile outside the room and the remaining quarter in.

"Once I release it, the impact will push me backwards and the the missile will go boom. Best to clear the area before I do, girl," Starscream says to Emily.

"If it only creates a miniscule hole as opposed to blowing the whole door down, then we'll have to resort to..."

Starscream's optics briefly shifted to Kirby as fear was present for a brief while.

"... secondary plans."

@York @Atomic Knight @Siege @Yun Lee @Alex Azure @etcetcetc​

"Whatever works. You two get to work!" Krystal said, enthusiastic of this combination of plans.

@Crow @York @Everyone else

❝ Uh huh... ❞ Flower made a sound as if she understood what was going on. That wasn't the case.

@York @Atomic Knight @Siege @Yun Lee @Alex Azure @Crow ​

“I agree with the robot. Let’s blow up the doors!”

“Honor schmonor! As a soldier, I keep ky weapon in hand at all times! It’s in the Red handbook, for crying out loud!” Sarge exclaimed, keeping his weapon in hand despite Viktor’s protests.

"..." Krystal was speechless... this guy was stupid. So, she grabbed her staff...

And whacked Sarge as hard as she could, hoping to put him out cold so Emily and Starscream could work.

@Raptor Jesus @Everyone else who wants to comment

The attack actually didn’t even seem to phase Sarge...

...in fact it seemed he was so caught up in the moment that he was too distracted to even notice anything around him.

Oh dear.

@Siege​

"Oh jeez..." Krystal said. She would need to whack him even harder. So she drew back...

And whacked Sarge with the staff so hard it made him flip head over heels. Hopefully, that didn't kill him. She didn't mean for it to.

Emily Hayes
@Atomic Knight @Crow @Siege @Raptor Jesus @Takumi

Emily didn't have time to shout anything as Starscream suddenly, without warning fired his missiles at the door... And while Sarge's gunfire didn't seem to richochet too badly... She knew the resulting explosion might catch those standing too close.

Thinking quickly... She began to concentrate... Tendrils of pink light once again extended from her amulet, forming a partial bubble around the explosion to keep the blast from reaching anyone there... Including her by chance.

After the explosion receded, and she let the light dissipate it seemed that everyone was relatively unharmed... Unfortunately the door remained standing though.

However, not long after, Emily caught wind of the "boner" talk too, which caused her cheeks to flush a little; although she never learned what it meant... She just knew her mom got mad that one time her brother said it, having gotten the word from some older kid at the arcade, thus... It wasn't something she was supposed to talk about, apparently.

"Let's... Leave the door alone for now..." She mumbled quietly.

Come to think of it, she wasn't even sure what "pervert" meant, though... Considering Gakupo's reaction, Emily decided it was best not to ask about it...

[Space_Candy]

Nathan sighed heavily, the stress in his lungs. He put his gun away, walking away and heading to the keypad where Quill stood.

It was taking everything in Nathan not to punch the damn thing.

@York @Lucky @Crow @Atomic Knight @Everyone else i guess lmao
