[ming yi's eyes close, when sqx tries.
the scissors clatter across the floor and hit a wall, and miyuki turns on aoi, fists clenched like she will just punch to death, but that's about the point that medb reaches her. her foot connects directly with the button, and miyuki freezes like the others before dropping to her knees, and then to the floor. when she hits the floor, her head sort of... well, it comes off a bit, but it's connected by a bunch of wires. also there's a lot of blood just everywhere, pooling under her, splattered across the wall, it's just a mess.
endorsi is stuck under anaak still, unable to get up herself, which is unfortunate because anaak is starting to smoke. it comes out of her eyes and ears, like a malfunctioning animatronic.
all of their adversaries are now not functioning! it is silent in the room, save for the distant thudding sound towards the vents.]

[she turns her head vaguely in the direction of the vent and the thudding noise]
...should we cover it up...?
[the robos are heavy, right...]

[ with great effort, aoi hauls herself to her hands and knees. and just stares at miyuki for a long moment. she wraps her arms around herself, trying to conceal how many stab wounds she has. no need for concern! ]
T... [ talking is hard. ] Task?
[ they still have a task left! ]

I think we need to leave through a vent again, and we do still have one more thing to do.
[ Aoi is right, and Endorsi's coughing grabs her attention. She scrambles over to help finish pushing Anaak off.
Her adrenaline is wearing off a bit. ]

[ENDORSI WHY DO YOUR ROLLS SUCK
medb does manage to help endorsi get anaak off of her, but only just barely. she continues to smoke - all four of the remains do, sparking occasionally. the room is cold, and you are all in various stages of blood loss and trauma.]

[just dizzily drags herself over to the vent with her good arm and starts to try to get it open. hopefully it will not be my turn again before i get home from work
but she glances back at ming yi, looking pained]

[ aoi opened up the vent earlier, so luckily sqx won't have to struggle too hard.
aoi will just try and follow along with what everyone else is doing. if no one forces her further in the back, though, she will head in right after sqx. she'd rather be towards the front in case that furby monster comes back. ]

[She's staggering over towards the vent as well, hand (the one with all her fingers intact) pressed against her side, which is now bleeding a little bit more heavily after being crushed by a robot for a few tag rounds. It's hoarse, due to the smoke, but:]
I can... go first again.
[Who knows if anyone hears that, though, given the hearing damage? It's a little bit hushed, too, so someone else is free to take their turn as line leader in this conga of death through the vents.]

[ Medb is trying very hard not to notice the pain that builds up after all that movement on top of all those injuries. ]
Whatever order is fine. I don't want to stick around in case the robots self-destruct.
[ She recognizes that there are probably better orders, considering how they're all suffering different levels of injuries, but she doesn't think they have too much time to fight this out.
A broken arm and concussed, multiple stab wounds, being crushed....
It doesn't look good. ]

[sqx, with her damaged hearing, does not hear endorsi, no. she's also not very inclined to let her be up front given she's already had a bite taken out of her.
so she takes a breath and just heads in there! she's moving slowly and cautiously, with her good arm on the side of the vent's... wall...? to help stabilize her, since she's a little unsteady on her feet right now.]
There's light up ahead. [...she says, to the others, who are probably also having hearing issues still] ...suspicious, but... we still have one more task to do.

[ aoi follows after sqx, i think we're too fucked up to fuss about order too much. ]
Aoi can keep going.
Aoi can keep going.
[She sighs, but she doesn't stop either of them as they go in. Unless Medb stops her, she's heading in next.]
[ It's time for an injured chaos run. No real objections even if Medb recognizes the lack of wisdom in this.
It's fine. They gotta move. ]
Let's be on our guard.

[off they go! they continue to hear thudding, and this time, since they're closer, they can hear the scrabbling of what sounds like claws on metal. as they make their way through, slowly and surely, nothing seems to happen.
aoi does, however, end up half stepping on something? it's cylindrical and long. and small.
there seems to just be a hallway on the other side of the vents.]

[she makes a face upon hearing that noise - claws on metal... vent rat... vent furby... eugh. luckily, they don't seem to be running into it.
once they make it to the other side, though, she takes a breath and keeps one hand on the hallway's wall to head over to that thing that looks like a trash can. can she look inside it? does it have a lid? will she have to open it? she'll try as best she can with a single hand if she does.]

[ aoi picks up the thing! she holds onto it until they're out of the vents, then inspects her new item! what's she got? ]
[She crawls out into the hallway, and since SQX is handling that trash can... She'll head over to the yellow containers stacked against the wall with a wince, moving her good hand from her side to see if she can open one of them.]
[ Thudding bad, claws on metal bad.
Mecb comes out of the vent and looks to see if there are any more doors in the hallway. Is it just the one at the end? ]

[the trash does not have a lid, and it's easy enough to look through. typical trash is in it, like old apple cores, crumpled papers, a dismembered arm, cardboard boxes. normal stuff.
aoi has a pair of knitting needles! they feel like they're very important to someone. also, they're very sharp. be careful.
there's just the one door at the end of the hallway, yes. and endorsi has a bit of trouble trying to open the yellow container. not because it's locked or anything, it's just pretty heavy.]

[WHY.
anyway she'll. pick up the crumpled papers first and try to uncrumple them? anything written on them? she'll paw through the cardboard boxes in case there's anything significant that's been tossed away with or in them, and then.
she'll. pick up that arm and get a closer look at it because murder investigations and body examinations have ruined her, i guess. does it look like it was dismembered cleanly or messily? anything identifying on it? does it appear to be holding anything in its cold, dead hand?]

[ i'm sorry that you all have to be responsible for aoi's useless ass but she's just gonna have a little sit down... while everyone searches the area... just a lil rest-sit. ]
[As she tries to open this container and fails, with a wince:]
Medb, can you help?
Medb, can you help?
Yeah, coming!
[ She goes over and helps open the container. ]
