>Okay, it sounds like money is the issue. So offer to cover the cost of replacing any balloons you use. It can't be that much, can it?

It's not just that. She has pride as a performer, too.

"Um... I'm sorry. I didn't consider your feelings and because of that I offended you. But I really do need some sort of help, even if it doesn't include balloons."

You gotta know when to walk away. At this point she's probably going to disbelieve us no matter what we do and Ted is walletless, so just warn her about the threat (even if she doesn't believe us NOW, if it gets worse then at least she'll know we weren't clowning around) and look for other options. Maybe the Janitor has a bucket or something you can fill with water instead?

Ted: The answer has been staring you in the face for so long it's gone blind.

Just destroy the building. Blow it up, reduce it to rubble.

If you do that, you create a bunch of mayhem, you get Jennifer to lose her job, you get to save the world... it's like a bajillion birds with one stone. It's like the H-Bomb of avian life as it is known.

Now go back, find the janitor, and start demanding that he give you all the details of weaknesses in the buildings gas and structural systems, or any other explosive-capable interior facilitations. There's gotta be something in here that can make an explosion that big.

Bonus points for the janitor if the schematics are stupidly intricate and difficult to draw.

AW SHIT



AW YISS GOT YO FLAG MOTHER FUCKER

BEST CHECK YOSELF BEFORE YOU WRECK YOSELF BITCH



OH FUCK SHIT PISS FUCKING CHRIST DDHSHGFSHFUCKING PATHFINDERS



PREPARE FOR IMPACT OH SHIT OHSHITOHSH



FUCK





bing!

"Our flag is secure."







And that's Tribes: Ascend in a nutshell.



I have no idea what I'm even doing any more. IT WAS FUNNY TO ME AND PROBABLY TEN TIMES FUNNIER TO THOSE WHO ACTUALLY PLAY TRIBES ASCEND

Anyway, this Thursday I'm going to take an actual intermission. Maybe. I'm going to be leaving for Florida over spring break and will not be near my tablet all week. I might prepare some form of intermission? Maybe? I think that would disrupt the idea of user suggestions. I just don't want to go bare of updates for an entire week. Or maybe nobody cares.

OTHER THINGS: Who wants to make a TVTropes article for Last Day? Because I feel dumb making my own article and I'm not gonna do it. So if you want to you can I guess. Also, ask me questions about last day guys c'mon i love answering questions. If that link doesn't work go here and hit "QUESTION MY MUSTACHE"

There will probably be an update tomorrow. Maybe. Next update's kinda big? There's two really important updates I want to get to this week so I'm going to be drawing my ass off for the next four days.

Well shit. This was fucking awesome on pretty much every account. Consider me a +1 reader.

Thank you very much. Tell all yo friends and shit! I enjoy making it just as much as you enjoy reading it.

also all suggestions before this post are still valid, obviously

GOOD NIGHT

(by the way my favorite class in tribes is the technician and my job pretty much covers none of this but it's basically like yelling at your teammates to help you retake the fucking generator room already so we actually have a goddamned defense)

I didn't play tribes so my reaction was "What even..."

Oh I can try to make an article, it's only going to be the very bare bones since I'm such shit at writing articles, though.

Hahahahaha, this was beautiful. BEAUTIFUL.
Engineers represent!

I mostly play engineer on team deathmatch though, because nobody expects to see a turret on a TD match, mwahaha.

I'm getting tired of T:A, mostly because having come from earlier versions of Tribes, T:A just doesn't let you do ANYTHING. Among other complaints that I don't need to air in this particular thread.

SpoilerShow

Seriously, the whole tribes thing is like super-future. Why did they put crossbows in super-future world with jetpacks and forcefields. It's a f---ing crossbow. AND WHY SO MANY STUPID BULLET GUN VARIANTS AAARGH

>If she so concerned about the welfare of her daughter then why the fuck did she waste a balloon on a tiny printer?

she didn't waste a balloon, it was already blown up at one point.

also: her daughter is 16, her name is Beatrice. she's still happily married, and they're actually pretty well off as Dorothy works two jobs while her husband also works as a children's book illustrator. Dorothy only has a job here because balloon sculpting is, as stated, inconsistent, and she doesn't really qualify for anything else.

this is hardly story important since Dorothy won't be appearing much after this but i actually have backgrounds for all of the characters. her whole family works with children all the time. the janitor even has one, and a name, but I think i'll touch upon it later since it makes for a pretty good discussion.

also this is kind of one of the reasons i encourage asking me questions about Last Day :V

>Use the shenanigns, Ted. Use the shenanigans!

When in doubt, use the shenanigans!



You start pushing Dorothy.

"Hey!" Dorothy shouts "Quit it! I've made my mind up!"



"Look through that keyhole." you tell her.

"Uh...why?"

"Just do it. You'll rethink your decisions."





"There's nothing in there." Dorothy says.

"Wh-What?! You're lying, move over!"





"What the..."



"But...but this is the right door! Right next to the water cooler! I know it! What the fuck?! Oh. Oh shit. That means it's loose! Shit!"



"Whoa..." she says, "You actually seem...genuinely worried about this."

"I'm aware of that!"

"And my balloons will help the cause?"

"Yes! This isn't some game we're playing! It's kind of a long story. It sounds dumb, but people might be in danger, and your balloons will probably save lives!"

"Oh...Okay, I understand."



"Well then, I'll make you a deal. I need a bucket. If you can find me one, I'll give you--"









That was easier than you thought. You're not entirely sure if water really stops the EXECUTE zombies, but now you have some ammo if it does. Now, to find Manfreddie and tell him about Butterc--



"TED!"





"I FOUND YOU!"



You are now the young Finnish girl.

You woke up in an elevator. You don't entirely remember why, you only remember your butt getting stuck. That was pretty damn funny.

>Refuse to open the elevator door, lest a computer-headed person be on the other side. Wait for someone to use the elevator instead. Zombies can't use elevators, right?

>Finnish Girl: Attempt to go to your floor to resume your work.

>Random dude: When the elevator opens, press every single floor's button, and keep this poor girl from resuming her work.

>Ted: Abscond Ted. Abscond like you have never absconded before!

Ted: Runaway, then quickly attempt balloon mask while at out sight. First chance you get head to the bathrooms.
Janitor: Finally make it to the lobby and ... Looks like no one is around. Let's try the elevator this time.
MANFREDDIE: Face BOSS alone.
All background characters: Start panicking, the outbreak has begun.

Jennifer: wonder at loss of ted. did you really see him?

Form party with remaining ducks.

Save the world.

Ted: KISS HER YOU FOOL!

Then punch her in the man parts and escape.


Beetle+lala+dorothy: form party for MORE SHENANIGANS.

Janitor: feel incredibly lonely. Everybody has forgotten you forever.
