17 -- 4th Wall Event -- Video/Action

[Somewhere in Goldenrod, there is a massive black robot. He's about 25' tall, well over four tons, and armed to the teeth.]

[He also looks excessively proud of himself as he kicks snow out of his path. This is the image the 'gear shows over the network.]


About time I was returned to my frame. Cold is hardly a problem now.

[For emphasis, he scoops some of said snow into one huge hand, and compacts it into what may be the largest and most deadly snowball Jhoto has ever seen.]

... Hmm.

[Be warned, citizens. The old weapons master is just looking for a target.]
foolishwren: so, like queer eye except the gays fuck up the lives of men who deserve it. and also I'm one of the gays. (me pitching a show to netflix:)

[Action] sob adding creative license because SH boss fights aren't actually all that interesting.

[She grins a little bit, enthusiasm growing, and spreads her hands.]

I had to trick it into opening up so I could hit it where it hurt, but only in places where I could get a good shot, AND wouldn't be like... in IMMEDIATE danger of being chomped, you know?

Anyway, I'd already gotten knocked around a bit just trying to get away from it where it kept popping out. It was hard to tell which hole it was gonna come out of 'cause even though it was noisy as HELL, the whole damn place echoed so badly the racket it made down in the tunnels could've been comin' from anywhere.

And it ALWAYS seemed to know where I was when it came bursting out, even though I'm pretty sure it was blind. Like, it didn't have any eyes, 'least not that I could see.

So I was like... man, how does it always know where I AM? 'Cause I was trying to get away, you know? Kinda hard when it keeps blindsiding you out of whatever tunnel you're in front of...

But then I was thinking ... if it couldn't see me, it had to HEAR me. Which seemed like it SUCKED at first because, well GREAT, nowhere to hide. But then I realized that if it was attacking based on where it heard me, that meant I could decide where I wanted it to come out.

More or less.

See, when I was coming down the ladder into the chamber, it broke pretty much right after I got to the bottom. So I grabbed one of the rungs from the ladder, right, and waited for it to disappear into one of the holes, and then I went and rattled the rung against the sides of one of the holes that'd give me a good position to fire at if it came out there.

... Then I got out of the way while the echoes from THAT were bouncing all over the place, so it couldn't hear my footsteps-- just the racket in front of the hole.

Then it was just a matter of waiting until it came out and tried to bite something that wasn't there, and--

[She makes a gun with her finger.]

Bang, bang.
foolishwren: what doesn't kill you gives you a lot of unhealthy coping mechanisms and a really dark sense of humor (well you know what they say...)

[Yeah, compliments from Ironhide? Mean a LOT.]

[Heather's chest swells a little bit, proudly.]


That was one of the first monsters I ever killed, too!

[Silent Hill didn't believe in easing you in slowly. Not unless that would scare you more.]
