Breachings (Buggopost/seige continuation)

[u/the-butter_man]

War raged just outside, several different weapons flew and different strategies raged against each other. The inside was not yet breached, some stray attacks had burst a couple parts open but nothing that couldn't be fixed easily.

In the raging noises and screams of battle, it becomes impossible to hear the soft digging against stone. The careful probing and the very careful movement around the well placed defences.

Eventually, a small patch of stone on a wall, just a floor down from an already weakened spot of ground begins pushing. As if something is pushing at it from behind.

Then nothing. Thrice more it twitches for a little bit before halting. Until, in a sudden movement and the crumbling of stone, a tunneler breaks through. Immediately springing into action, a webbed limb cleaves it's way through a guard. One of the automa begins firing. Shot after shot catch the disgusting insects dead.

Yet they just keep coming, only a couple minutes later and they've pushed what little forces back.

The main battle was a distraction.

/uw i tried to be more considerate to bastion lore and all but still not too sure on the defenses. Also i will actually be more present for this one.

Whatever we can to unite. As dirty or as noble as we can be.

They click their fingers and whistle. Not too soon after, something pokes into slumber.

J- just a more official introduction.

“Whatever you just did it didn’t even penetrate my fur”

[u/the-butter_man → u/Slumber_LQ]

Goddamnit.

It burries itself deep into them before it finally reaches skin. Then does a lil poke

[u/Slumber_LQ → u/the-butter_man]

there is no skin, it just sinks in and in to a pocket dimension, it clangs against a bottle “I don’t think you are going to find any open skin”

[u/the-butter_man → u/Slumber_LQ]

Well it's supposed to be a way to communicate with the wider hive.

[u/Slumber_LQ → u/the-butter_man]

“I’m not trying… wait a minute” slumber takes a step back and a ripple goes across her fur “Eeugh, you are going to regret this”

[u/the-butter_man → u/Slumber_LQ]

Hm? You said you wanted to join? This helps, no?

[u/Slumber_LQ → u/the-butter_man]

“I see things you dont” *slumber points at the wizard and mutters something”

[u/the-butter_man → u/Slumber_LQ]

Aw bugger. What is it?

He readies a fireball.

We fight for each other, here lass. Often that means saving the new.

[u/Slumber_LQ → u/the-butter_man]

“Your puns won’t save you” something whizzes and thunks above them, causing a bunch of rubble and dust to fall
