Cast float to reach the pipe. Or throw the acid at it and run out of the room so it doesn't splash on you,

As any chemist knows, the trick for dealing with strong acid is to just add water. Dilute that shit down and then neutralize it using a buffer and base. Get it near 7 and then you only have to worry about the toxicity of whatever chemicals are in it.

we dont have that. you think the acid could react with oxygen? or maybe one of the tanks isnt oxygen...

i think we are supposed to break the pipe somehow. even if its sewer it should work.
>>
No. 189789 ID: bc0d0d

>>189747

If that isn't feasible, even the strongest acids have certain materials they don't react with very well. Most won't affect glass, the notable exception being hydrofluoric acid which instead won't affect polythene of all things. If the tank is glass then it's contents are not HF, if plastic they probably are; either way if you can find any largeish objects of the same material you can use them as tools to fish out the object from the bottom reasonably safely. Gloves or thick fabric will be enough to absorb any small splashes, although they'll be wrecked as a result.

The tube could well be used for dredging the acid tank if you could get one of it's segments loose. Try to make sure you can return the segment once you're done though, just in case the pipe occasionally carries something fun like more of the acid.

Alright then, acid + pipe = acid everywhere, are we sure about this?

I climb onto the table to get a better shot at the pipe. Jason helps me on and tells me to be careful after I inform him of our plan.

I take a few steps backwards, and inform Jason he should do the same.
He informs me that he's not going anywhere without me, meaning he won't leave the room while I do stupid crazy shit.

As the pipe disolves, there seems to be fresh, pure water pooring out. The tank is flooding pretty rapidly.

Leave the room. Take the table with you if you can.

There's going to be a lot of spillage, and completely aside from not wanting to get even a misting of it on you you're going to want to be as far away from it as possible.

This is going to eat the floor, and I'm pretty sure you don't want to be inhaling the resulting fumes.

The fumes seem to disipate into the air fairly quickly, maybe because it's next to an air vent?

Either way, its starting to eat it's way through the floor very quickly.

The tank seems to be slowly crushing the increasingly more deformed drawer it was standing on, and the acid is still biting through.

That's not reassuring at all!

The acid continues to spread, and although I can tell it's slowed down, it's spread out to the point where it's starting to eat the desk.
I stumble when it does, but Jason has a hold of me, and also a lot better of a balance.

Should we get out of the room entirely?

Get off the table and to the door. Even if the acid is able to burn right through the floor, it does not spread very fast. You can just take a few steps back whenever it gets too close for comfort.

Jason and I wait a while untill it stops smoking, after that a while more.
I first test if it bites through my crutch, which luckily it doesn't.

I think it's safe.

>>202564
There's a hole in the ground, through which the drawer almost fell. Luckily the acid stop eating through it before it gave in.
So I guess all the water goes to the floor below.

Ah sorry, I assumed there was still "floor" left under the drawer.

We shouldn't risk breaking the weakened floor. Ask Jason to help you arranging what's left of the table in a way to reach the tank (so it's like a brigde).

Just a precaution.

Now I think it's a pity we couldn't store a small bit of the acid for later use. We could have used it to burn through a locked doorlock or another obstacle.

I suggest to Jason to use the desk as a sort of a bridge, he looks at me and nods, smiling as he does so.
He understands what im getting at, and volenteers to go over.
>"Be careful..."

There's still a small amount of the acid left in the syringe, not a whole lot, but it might be enough to melt maybe 1 lock?

Wait, wouldnt this concentrate the weight of both Jason and the desk on 1 point?

Call him back, flip the table over, and act as a counterweight on the edge of the table. Have Jason edge out on his belly, so that the majority of his weight is as far back as possible. In this way, even if the other side fails and the tank drops down, the table should remain on this floor (with you and Jason!).

I hug Jason back briefly before suggesting the table flip, we're both kind of awkward about this...
This is kind of a big deal, neither of us could remember a thing from before, well, that tube we woke up in.

"Jason, try a piece of cloth first, just to be sure" I say, and with a nod he rips off a bit of some of the clothes he's carrying.
"I don't think the acid is reacting to it" says Jason, dangling the cloth in the now seemingly harmless acid.

I think we're both still a little emberrased, I can tell he remembers too..

It's all water diluted now, right? Ask if he can see what the objects are better now.
>>
No. 203731 ID: c4c313

If he does dip his hand in, run it under the water from the pipe for a lot longer than you think necessary. Acid has this nasty tendancy to not start burning until like 10 minutes after you stick your hand in it, so it's important to make sure it's all cleaned off, even if diluted.

Jason checks the liquid, and reaches for the contents of the tank.
He informs you there are 2 items in here, one of them seems to be a case of some sorts, the other a mouth piece.

Oppon closer inspection, Jason concludes this must be a kit used for maintance or repairs.

Jason further inspects the tank, all that's left in it, other than the water, is part of the cloth we used to see if it was acid.
He hops on back off the table and I flash my pearly whites at him.
Jason looks impressed.

I then give him a well deserved hug for his bravery, after a few seconds I check out the I.D.
It looks like it belonged to a Dr. Andrew, the "ADMIN" on the I.D. looks like it was later put on by permanent marker.

But until then, the chances of survival for anybody are higher the more help you get.

"Bane, Cid helped me help you when you were stuck in the detention block place, he's on our side."I say, taking a pause for a moment.

"But I trust you, you're our friend, and you've helped us fight off Pete. If it makes you happy, you can keep and eye on him in case he does anything suspicious."
"That said, Cid is really computer savvy, and we need his help."

Bane folds his arms, "foine, yer in charge, but if 'e tries anythin' he's a dead man."
Cid nods, "I guess that's settled then. The AI mainframe, or at least part of it, should be through this north door."
He looks at the doorway, and informs us that "The light of that alarm is on, so we'll need gas masks, there should be other ways into the room, but this is the fastest."

Jason summerises: "So we can either go through a gas chamber or find another way to the AI."

"Can you take a look at this panel?" I ask Cid, he tells me "probbably, with some time. But this kit is missing some tools and parts."

"Can you fix it now?" asks Jason.
"Yeah, there's enough spare wire in here to fix it. This looks like it's a server or a power supply of sorts. It could restore the power to parts of the facility."
"The question is, do we -want- to fix it?"

It's possible this restores the power of the facility, so it would also restore access to the AI.
We could use the oxyghen tanks and get 2 of us through the next chamber. Or we could find a way around.

"Momdad?" I ask, when a voice is heard almost instantly: "Yes, dear?"

I ask our electronic 'parent': "Is there anything specificly offline?"
"I am functioning at 45% capacity, lights in some regions of the facility are offline, some computer terminals are disconnected, power to the exit door is offline, I can't tell you about the other pieces of equipment, those are not for you to know about" proclaims the male voice of Momad.

that was quite unspecific. ask momdad about this panel in particular.

we should problaby ask what is in the gas chamber, and if it can be "emptied"

That's a sign with a gasmask on it, the border around it is lit up. I guess it looks like Cid because it kind of follows the curves of a skull. And, well, Cid is skin over bone.

"Thank you dad. Can you tell me about this panel in particular?" I ask our digital friend, it replies: "This panel is one of many points through which I'm able to control the facility. If you treated the 'wound' I should have access to more of the facility."
Cid explains that by that it means that "If we fix it it restores control, meaning it has access to more systems. Doors, ventilation, traps, security, etc."
"Could you use the ventilation system to remove the gas from this gas chamber?" I ask; "That isn't a gas chamber, silly, that's a chamber that happends to be flooded with gas. But yes, I could do that."

:Alice: "Could you help us pass to the other side? Actually, what's on the other side?"
:momdad: "I am on the other side, dear. And unless you have a security card, you're not allowed in."

:Jason: I thought we had one of those?

re-examine inventory to make sure you didn't lose it.

well, momdad is still butthurt about its privacy.

ask it if it needs attention of some sort, and where is the current workers of the building.

i just noticed we could ask momdad to depower the panel while we do a quick fix job. hoping it can also lead to some more answers about the place.

i forgot, what are your long term goals?
