Welcome TravitheParasite! The hivemind is growing.

Perhaps it's too late and iP has already selected a/some suggestion/s, but here goes anyway.
Knowns:
Piper is able to heal whoever she's riding on to full health every 'turn'. As the Priestess of Affliction, Emily takes half damage and the other half is distributed equally to nearby allies as healing (yes, she is a tank/healer). Inanimate things present on any given dream level are also present on all higher-numbered dream levels. The poison is not in the fort system.

I second asking Piper if Emily has any useful abilities at this time, wrapping Piper in the jacket as a filter, having Piper heal Emily often, and beelinining to the Old Fort. Then say hi to Ruu if she's awake, assess the need for a gas mask, and go to the Black Creation Stone regardless because I'm sure we all have stuff we want to do with it.

Oh snap! I plum-forgot about Emily's passive healing!
Since it extends to all allies, it should include Piper as-well.

>Emily: Wrap Piper snugly in your jacket and wear her like a turban, then break into Derrick's room through the window!

You enter Derrick's house. You cover your breathing passages to prevent much poison gas from entering your system, Piper does the same. Though it does not prevent it.

You are stricken by toxic sickness and will lose 15HP periodically.

>Emily: go back out, get healed, grab the biggest rock you can find and chuck it at Derrick's room window.

>Emily: go back out, get healed, grab the biggest rock you can find and chuck it at Derrick's room window.

We shouldn't delay. We have no idea if the poison will stop affecting her as soon as she exits the gas.

> Emily: Head to the kitchen and then into the pantry.

the poison stopped affecting everyone before when they had to run from it, tho...

>Emily: RUUUUUN into the kitchen, there's a fort past the door in there. If something goes wrong, run out of the house.

It would appear you are correct. Still, probably best we do this as quick as possible and minimize unnecessary actions. We don't have a reliable method of healing Piper (Emily's thing distributes half damage as healing so in effect it should pretty much halve the damage they both receive) until we get a reaper.

You dash towards he kitchen. You and Piper succumb to 15 damage!



Inside the pantry, you find a two small boxes with a cloth over it, you think you'll enter to escape the poisonous gas.

Emily: Here again...?
Piper: Hmm, seems something has been living here.
Piper: There are a few ways we can go.

Ok, first of all we need to heal, then head up to the fort in Derrick's closet.

Whatever direction we can find a reaper in.
But ladders are always fun so >Up!

I'll be doing live updates for a couple hours: https://www.twitch.tv/intrepidpioneer

Emily: Go upstairs



You come upstairs and come across Bambino and Reggie.

Show ChatlogShow

Emily: Oh.. Hello again, Bambino.
Bambino: ....
Reggie: You're the kid from before, Emily right?
Reggie: Welcome back.
Emily: Thanks.
Bambino: Who is on your head?
Emily: This is Piper. Say hi, Piper.
Piper: Hi!
Reggie: Well isn't that special. Now you'll be taking names and numbers with your ultimate powers.
Emily: ...?
Reggie: I'm just messing with you, you don't have anything like that.
Reggie: Or do you?? =v=
Emily: ...??
Reggie: Up to you.
Emily: I'm uh... I'm here to clean up the gas.
Reggie: Really?? Oh boy!
Reggie: I was worried Derrick was going to wake up to it.
Reggie: Wouldn't that have been a disaster, huh?
Bambino: Yes.
Emily: ...... Any ideas?
Reggie: Well, the green girl is still farting up the place in there.
Reggie: Maybe you could, I don't know, talk to her?
Reggie: You may want some sort of breathing apparatus.
Reggie: Goth chick is good at getting creation stone. Ask her.
Emily: Uhm... Is that Lucia?
Reggie: Yes.
Reggie: Also, Keep up the good work, kid. eve

Idk how Schaz will end up feeling about this, I may be wrong, but the general consensus on Eagle Time is that the only things that aren't allowed are Homestuck and Homestuck derivatives.

are those things really against the rules? i thought that was just somewhat discouraged

honestly i don't really "get" lucidstuck but i might actually give it a look this time around. i'm only 11 pages in but that's better than before i think

SpoilerShow

Right in the first and second sections here it says that "Homestuck Sucks was a strong sentiment in the forum's early days" but "We've mellowed out since then" so as far as I can tell, it should be fine. But I am a refugee from The Great Forum Death so I do not know.

>Emily: Find Goth Girl, failing that you could use a pillow or the blanket as an IMPROVED improvised breath mask.

page 22 there's unbearable yellow text but on page 24 i meet bambino. i guess really bad and really good cancels out.

bear in mind i've got nothing against sburbventures.

Reggie: Just head down that hatch, and I'll tell ya which door to pick.

Reggie: Just go through this door here.
Emily: Alright...
Reggie: But for the record, are you "Busy"?
Emily: Busy?
Piper: Yes. We are "Busy".
Reggie: I wasn't able to before, because of the way things played out.
Reggie: But now that you're here, things are definitely going to be wrapped up.
Reggie: Don't worry about a thing.

Emily: Oh hello.
Reggie: That's Ruu, she lives in that other room.
Emily: ... One of the reapers told me about her.
Ruu-Andaros: ..!

Ruu-Andaros: -Gasps-
Emily: ...?

Ruu-Andaros: ...Ruu nose says..
Ruu-Andaros: You are saint of this land!
Ruu-Andaros: Ruu loves your smell!!
Emily: T-thanks?
Ruu-Andaros: Ruu is looking for adventures. Went off with friends, but short lived.
Ruu-Andaros: Ruu was told skies have fierce flame mouth dragons.
Ruu-Andaros: Ruu know better than to tussle with foreign beasts of sky.
Ruu-Andaros: If want, stop by Ruu home.
Ruu-Andaros: Bring shiny item and Ruu offer deal. Okay?
Emily: Okay.
Ruu-Andaros: Ruu also warn about stinky gas in Derrick house.
Emily: Ahh yes. I'm working on that now.
Ruu-Andaros: So nice!! Ruu asks for sweet smelling girl's name??
Emily: I'm Emily.
Ruu-Andaros: Emily...
Ruu-Andaros: Ruu will remember this.
Ruu-Andaros: In meantime, Ruu will laze about.
Ruu-Andaros: So bored with no friend, Derrick.
Ruu-Andaros: Byebye!
Emily: See you later...

You exit the fort from the small gap on the wall and emerge from underneath a bed!

Lucia: Oh..! It's you.

Show ChatlogShow

Emily: Hi Lucia. I was wondering if you'd help me with something?
Lucia: What is it?
Emily: I'm trying to cleanse Derrick's house from poisonous gas.
Lucia: ....
Emily: And I need "creation stone" to make a gas mask.
Emily: I saw Derrick make a gun with it, so it shouldn't be too hard.
Emily: Reggie says you can help?
Lucia: Sure. I collected a shit ton actually.
Lucia: I can't tell you where they are though, it's a secret.
Emily: Okay.
Lucia: But here. You can have this one that I just happen to have on me.

Lucia hands you 1 CREATION FRAGMENT.

Show ChatlogShow

Emily: Thank you..!
Lucia: Here, let's see what you can do.

> Emily: Make a gas mask with the eyes capable of zooming in and out for enhanced sight.

> Lucia: Consider making bags for all the reapers so they can carry stuff around more easily.

>Emily: Make a hazmat suit! You can totally decorate it as a teddy bear costume later. It will be amazing. Plus if you're talking to somebody a clear visible face is probably more welcoming than a gas mask.

>Emily: Draw a gas mask with lights on it and make the air hole heart shaped like your symbol.
>Emily: Draw a tiny gas mask for piper.

Not sure if we can decide on properties like zooming in and out, so I'd just go with lamps for better sight.

>Lucia: Tell Emily she can call reapers for help by calling out "boo!".

>Emily: after you've made your gas mask, make another tiny one for Piper, if there's enough leftover BCS.

>Emily: Common courtesy first! Say hello to the reaper-girl as-well. Then ask to borrow the tailoring dummy for a bit to ease drawing the outline. Draw a full hazmat suit with a gas-mask and a big bonnet where you can fit Reggie and Piper.

My plan would be to at some point fit this hazmat suit around Melphita. Then she could also use the gas-mask's muzzle as a miasma-cannon! ^^

...provided she refuses Emily's purifying touch that-is >.>

Dang it! I wanted Emily to go to the stone personally. I have a rock joke that would be in-character for them not knowing about the rock jokes.

SpoilerShow

Piper: So, break off a chunk.
Emily: How? It's rock hard.

The first thing she would have made was a roll of paper (pinata time!) or maybe a paper glove, and then hit the stone repeatedly.

Every dreamer should carry a bag with at least 25 pieces of creation stone in it.

Gas masks can be clear face shields with the filters by the chin.

> Emily: Ask how the beach party went.
