"so when is every thing gonna be set up"

Slow day, Writing

If you didn't stick around after the last thread the plan for our A.I. R.O.B. is to have him study economics so we can have him play the stock-market and get us rich.

"So when is everything going to be set up?" You won't rat him out just yet, but you KNOW that this is not coincidence. Mr. Salvos has to be a Super, and it's either Wrench or Swordsman, you narrowed it down 2 weeks ago.

"Pretty soon, the show starts in about an hour, but these lights are giving us problems, they aren't syncing with the computer that controls the timing. Don't worry, we'll have it done in time for the show." He seems as if he knows something you don't, and he seems kind of smug about it. He can only be here to, well, guess the rumors about SilverStreak are true. There has to be a Super he's helping, but why?

Mr. Salvos starts leading around an impromptu tour of backstage, you don't really pay attention, it really doesn't matter. There are a few Supers who use sonic abilities. Namely Boombox, Screamo, and Jetstreak, but the last one has more than just those powers. If a Super is in a band, he probably has sonic powers, it's ironic like that.

"...and that concludes the tour, feel free to watch the concert back here on the screen over there, when they're done playing, you might even meet SilverStreak." Wow, actually getting to meet SilverStreak, that's pretty cool, and you can probably tell who's the super by cross-referencing body types.

Who should I sit next to?

You take a seat in between Jen and Jeana and start talking with them about the concert, but it seems you are a little distracted by the fact that Mr. Salvos is SITTING FIVE FEET AWAY FROM YOU, why did you think that loudly? You're tweaking out man, maybe science is addictive, at least you're kind of keeping the conversation, but they can tell you're distracted.

"What's wrong Thomas? You feeling okay?" Jen seems rather concerned, is that good or bad? She is twirling her brown hair around her finger, at least your first impression was good so they don't think you are always this way.

"Yeah, just thinking about some stuff, I'm sorry." Wow, you really are on autopilot, you just apologized for thinking.

"What are you thinking about?" Jeana is trying to figure out something, she always has this look in her eyes when she tries to figure out a problem. It's kind of intimidating, she looks a bit like that chick from the Wendy's commercials, so it's a bit creepy too.

You definitely don't want to tell them about Mr. Salvos, but you are tired of lying, it hurts to lie to people a lot. Why are you lying about your powers again? Ah yes, Superhero Movies, wait no fuck, you thought you lost that train of thought back home. Maybe you should call Mom, that always helps.

"Goddammit, does he do this every time you ask a question?" Jeana sighs.

"Oh, just thinking about beautiful mind, and that train of thought led to other beautiful things." She blushed, you did it, YEAH, GODDAMMIT MORE YELLING, fuck calm down. Hooray, maybe she has a thing for flatterers, or you're just that cool. Probably the former.

"Why were you thinking about beautiful mind?" Jen seems a little confused by what just happened, and you need to cover this a bit. So you show everyone the video.

"Fuck man this shit cray!" Everyone seems to be laughing at the guy who took the video's vocabulary choices. But you look at the views again and the number is 750,000 views. You must be a small celebrity now, maybe there will be job offers later.

"How did you do that man!?" Harry says in-between laughs, he is turning red about now.

"Yeah, how did you do that?! That's like the most confusing class at the school!" Monica seems a bit less tickled by the video, but she's still smiling.

Jeana is a shade of scarlet you didn't think possible right now, between the blushing and the laughing. Maybe you'll score, that would be nice, you were a hopeless virgin in high school, but nobody in Cosmopolis knows that. HELL YEAH, NO FUCK STOP YELLING, SHIT!

Monica just sighs again.

"I just got lucky, I use that equation a lot in Nanorobotics." Nice save, you did it, now you are the cool guy! GODDAMMIT, NOW IT'S BACK TO SARCASM! Now yelling again.

"LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, PLEASE TURN OFF ALL CELL PHONES AND RECORDING DEVICES BEFORE-" All of a sudden the microphone gets caught in a massive feedback loop, and then it stops. "GOOOOOOOOOD EVENING COSMOPOLIS, I HAVE TAKEN OVER THIS FREQUENCY TO ASSURE YOU THAT SO LONG AS YOU COOPERATE, YOU WILL GO HOME SAFE TONIGHT. I AM BOOMBOX, AND I'M A LITTLE STRAPPED FOR CASH. SO PUT YOUR WALLET ON THE FLOOR AND GO HOME OR I WILL BLOW YOUR EARDRUMS OUT!"

Over all the screaming outside, you notice that Mr. Salvos is gone. "AHAHAHAHAHA, WAIT, WHO ARE YOU? AHHH-", the voice is cut off as a crash echos around the stage, on the screen, you see a man in a suit of armor beating on a large man in a stereotypical rapper outfit. Swordsman and Boombox...

"Come on, let's get out of here!" Harry is no longer laughing and seems rather scared.

"You go ahead, I need to get that groupie out of here, I'll catch up!" That answers the question of who Mr. Salvos is, now you should probably help. You're not shocked when Boombox blasts Swordsman off him, that is his power after all,

"Your funeral man!" Harry and the girls all run out the back exit. Now you have breathing room, you take out your jar of Micro-Actuators and open it up. What good press will you get when your invention helps stop a Supervillain, you are practically drooling over the thought of more money. You sneak your way to right behind the curtain and peek out.

Swordsman has drawn a massive greatsword, at least taller than you, and is swinging it at Boombox, who is blasting the ground to dodge the swings. Then Boombox blasts the sword away and gets into a wide stance, by now your Micro-actuators are scattered among the debris rather nicely so as not to be noticed.

"I GROW BORED OF THIS BATTLE, I END THIS NOW!" He seems to be charging a large boom, and he doesn't have an inside voice.

Wait...

Spread out Actuators...

Wide stance...

Oh yeah, golden opportunities don't come often, time to do this.

"I WILL KI-" The Actuators are already bunched up under his legs and it seems he just noticed. "WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA..." You think he just went up at least 3 octaves, oh right, these are really well-made, total force exertion on average is 50 pounds. Ouch...

Boombox is on the ground writhing in pain, so you slip an actuator into his mouth, maybe that will do... something? You didn't quite think that much into it. In an instant Swordsman is upon him, cuffing him, then gagging him so he can't use his powers. He isn't putting up much resistance, just crying on the floor. Note to self, Nanite Nut Punch hurts, a lot.

"Thank you citizen, when you have time, meet me at this address." All of a sudden he jumps into the distance. Yeah, that slip of paper he dropped has an address, but should you go now? That entire fight was recorded, and you were the only one still here, maybe you should erase that. No, wait, this is good publicity for the Micro-Actuators, you could take credit for what you did.

>>40389428

Right we need to get rich first and get powerful enough to protect our friends and family before we go public. But we should go public, with these powers we can make huge advances in technology and actually improve the quality of life for people across the world.

Shadows it is

>>40389357

Look, if we had a polished product and full suit of weaponry and armor I would go public, but we're not even CLOSE to being ready for the public.

>>40389451
3 2's vs 2 1's, looks like we're not exposing ourselves just yet. Good thing we decided not to give our enemies ample opportunity to end us before we could even begin.

>>40389464
We can make huge advances in technology while still not going public, we just need to be careful that the super hero doesn't get too connected with the advancements so that norms, supers and villains know it's us through inference

I'm not certain that would be possible. From what I can gather we are up there with Stark, Banner and Pym as far as scientific genius goes. Hell, we did that equation up on the board and one of the first guesses was for the Red Rider. We can do so much more good for the world by taking up the mantel publicly than trying what our dad did with the cover story of being an accountant.

>>40389615
why do you think i put it in there.

>>40389679

This might be true but I would feel better about Elon Musking the world if we also have a nanosuit on under our clothes. Let's give us some time to really develop a good set of powerful tools before we start drawing public attention.

>>40389745

I could not agree with you more there, we need to get on top of crafting though I am honestly not sure how much longer we can keep it under wraps, the instability might out us before we're ready if we're not careful.

>>40389971

"Dude, did you find him? Harry seems awfully concerned, probably trying to look good in front of Monica.

"Yeah, he already left and by the time I found him, Swordsman had already won." Another cunning lie from rusemaster general, it's happening again. Focus.

"At least we got out okay, let's go, I don't want to stay here." Monica starts walking for her car.

"Yeah we should." Don't panic. Don't panic. You're cool right, yeah? No. Shit now you're talking to yourself.

She turns that shade of red again, you thought redhead was referring to hair. "Y-yes, we should." Wait, is she nervous too? This is weird, You should go back to the lab, stuff makes sense there. Except when you almost blow up the city, but that only happened once.

"Jeana, we're leaving, hurry up!" Stella is getting impatient, but she does that a lot. Honestly she's kind of bossy, but whatever.

"Seeya later Tom." Jeana blurts it out and runs to the car.

Well, that went better than expected, at least you think she's interested, maybe you could call her tomorrow, but you have to get home first. You don't even remember getting in your car, but you make it home before you know what happened. It's about 11PM, and Harry was going to walk from the Girl's dorm when he's done with... things. You can guess what that means. So you should probably go to bed. You collapse onto the mattress and fall into sweet dreams.

Yeah, I think the A.I. we're building is going to compensate for us in a BIG way when it comes to the business itself... So I think that needs to be a big priority. I think that if we start our foundation (business, factories, etc) now before we've established a presence we can more easily excuse our success instead of suddenly being Mr. Business Man after graduation.

>>40390546

Agreed, AI should be top priority and have a way where we can communicate with him easily for on the spot advice. What do Anon's think about branching into medical technology as well, There are a number of ways we can improve the bodies functions although we would need to see if we can fit in some bio and chem classes as well before just jumping in

>>40390595
true but when the company that are going to make us offers to work for them (because of the video) when we get to class i have a plan to show we are also business minded

>>40390667
im not big on body modifications but im all for finding cures and developing new equipment to save lives

So guys, I have a system for school that goes through the whole week at once. You just specify any specific things you want to do at school or afternoons.
So roll 2d100 and choose any things you want to do specifically.
>Organize a date with Jeana
>Visit that address
>Work on R.O.N
>Write-in

Rolled 73, 4 = 77 (2d100)

>>40390728
>>Organize a date with Jeana
>>Visit that address
>>Work on R.O.N
>Write-in
Work on our car to improve its performance not look

Rolled 18, 84 = 102 (2d100)

>>40390728
>Visit that address
>Work on R.O.N

Rolled 86, 60 = 146 (2d100)

>>40390728
>Work on R.O.N
>Visit that address
>Organize a date with Jeana
All three

>>40390667

We could make a fortune in prosthetics with the nano actuators

>>40390764
wait scratch working on the car make it study the new element

>>40390805
>>40390728
Oh yeah, that

>>40390830
>>40390805
That takes a Tech Point, all in due time.

>>40390673
There is no Video. The Video is deleted. No proof of nanotech is linked to us.

Also, A.I. +own company is no deterrent when trying to get hired by another company.

A.I. Is essential for the business plan to show we're business minded, since it will basicly be the tool we use to solidify our business presence.

The A.I. will not hinder us in developing a plan, nor will it stop us from demonstrating to any potential employers that we're not business minded.

That said, going the route of employee might not even be what we want to go, we could go full stark and get our patents, sell our ideas and go the entrepreneur route instead

>>40390764
Sounds good, working on making our car better.
and everything else.

>>40390667
Med. tech? Yes please. This can help us (and by extension, others) in so many different ways. Let's cure cancer, gaise :)

Okay, modification roll is 1d100-10, roll low.
This is for the car.
Then roll another 1d100 for charisma.

Rolled 27 + 10 (1d100 + 10)

>>40390889
We gotta learn them simple mechanics

Rolled 69, 23 + 10 = 102 (2d100 + 10)

>>40390889

Rolled 48 - 10 (1d100 - 10)

>>40390889

Rolled 37 (1d100)

>>40390889

Rolled 45 (1d100)

>>40390889

>>40390803

That sounds excellent, I was actually thinking of taking the nano actuators and making them smaller and crafting an Immune System 2.0, programmable for the diseases themselves and possibly able to take on cancerous cells at the same time

Rolled 53 (1d100)

>>40390889

To subract a modifier you have to use +-

>>40390922
>>40390930
>>40390921
>>40390919
>>40390905
>>40390889
It seems we make the car slightly less shit despite being able to build nanomachines and create an AI, meanwhile our charisma is being bad, damn you instability
Thankfully Jeana seems to also be awkward.

Rolled 50 (1d100)

okay then, I just took the first 3 for modification and the next three for charisma. Checking more stuff.

>>40390934

Basically what we have now could replicate someone's hand or foot no problem, once we have some kind of miniature computer that would respond to a non-super individual.

Also there would be obvious military applications for a robot that could become a brick and selfheal from damage, but our MC seems less interested in doing dark side type stuff

>>40390980
can you next time call for 1 roll take those three then make another post calling for the other roll cause this is getting a little confusing.

>>40390980
Would we be able to meditate during the week?
at least for one hour?
new perk and our instability is still at 25 and all.

>>40391049
The lock just got down (it only had 9 hours left)
so we get the full effect of the perk over that set amount of time (one per day no?).
We're back to normal.

>>40390955
we did pretty well for the low roll.
considering it is a low roll, we got a 23 - 10
makes it 13, not a crit but not bad, and not far from a crit success.

>>40390984

I agree there, we shouldn't get into the military contracts for weapon systems because of the way they can be abused even with ignoring the weapons systems though the military would fall over themselves if we can functionally replace limbs

>>40391129

We could probably always include a failsafe where if the computer control system was being backers of whatever the actuators can shred themselves into worthless micro scrap though. Probably wouldn't prevent reverse engineering for very long but it might slow things down

>>40391237

True, a very well hidden backdoor for us would be necessary for any of our inventions

>Instability reduced to 5

>Innovation get, Nano-Limb

You spend most of your time at school coasting, just kind of thinking of ideas for stuff to build, including a limb made of Micro-Actuators, just needs to integrate with the body's nervous system somehow. Nobody seems to notice, so you get through the week just fine. You spend most of your time working on your car, finding a way to make it run on a condensed Potential Generator, which DOES WORK but took a bit more time to make. It still looks like a junker, but now it doesn't need fuel and is a lot faster. You also manage to set up and go to a date with Jeana at a jazz club, probably not a good idea considering the band was too loud to let you talk much, but she seemed to have fun when you started playing impromptu charades. You decided to call your Mom, it was mostly just her confirming that you're okay, but she says that you are going to Grandpa's for Christmas this year.

Friday afternoon, you decided to check out that address Swordsman gave you. It is, once again, in the inner city. What is it with Supers and this place, are they a part of a gang? Alone with your thoughts, you make your way to 616 Mulberry Circle and find another ratty house. Inside is a single pod containing the Swordsman's suit.

His base.

Twice as much science? Definitely.

I'd be fine with that, we're going to be needing charisma when we're negotiating what are salary will be or price for the sale of an invention or patent.a shit ton of royalties

>>40391448

Well we were an awkward kid in high school who is now vaguely charismatic and set to be the king of the castle at college. We are bound to run into it now and to be honest I am surprised we haven't. Plus it makes more sense to me to have this first and then discover the bonus when we do drink.

Synthesizing Cairnsium
>>40391765
You get to say when you want to roll for Innovation

>>40391763
being able to make more Cairnsium

>>40391764
That'd make us have at least 15% chance of amazing breakdown, forever.

>>40391798
so it's basicly "i wanna create this cool thing!" *rolls innovate*?

>>40391833
we've got a 5% chance now?
hmm, might want to avoid going down that route, maybe we should be satisfied with Self-improvement

>>40391850
Basically, you also get to set a goal for what you want as an idea.

>>40391729
>>Self-improvement: Choose a stat to give a plus 5 to.

Charisma: No mods
Knowledge: No mods
Strength: No mods
Guts: No mods
I think a good investment into knowledge would help most of our project short and long term. With out any draw backs like Science bitch would.

>>40391833
ya but thats 2 tech points every thread instead of 1

>>40391886
If you use stark's while having Science Bitch you arrive at a 1/4 of breakdown.
If you go any further than that you might arrive at a nice level of "heads or tails: you're now crazy"

>>40391883
I agree, knowledge would be a good thing to increase, especially considering the synergy with our powers

>>40391909
at least we've got the meditation to help us keep it at decent levels, don't forget our meditation!

>>40391909

I don't particularly mind that direction though, interesting story to play out where we perfectly represent the dual nature of science. Course that drawback does explain why our dad went the accountant route, just about the only chance at having a normal life.

>>40391909
you still have to reach 100 in instability befor a brake down and we still have meditation to calm us down

>>40391909
Break-downs aren't that terrible.
>>40391965
Break-downs are a random chance that can occur while trying to calm down improperly or spending too long under stress.

>>40391965
"Instability is the percentile chance that you will break down, while Innovation is the percentile chance that you will create something interesting in the process of research."

>>40391984
So you say, Cowboy, so you say

>>40391984
would joining a gym and getting a fitness routine down help relive stress

>>40391955
I still think we should go "slightly safer but still going further", just not "full cray".
Sure the extra TP is nice, but the 15/100 chance doesn't seem as delicious

>>40392011
Maybe it'd increase Strength

>>40392003
If you take Pym Power, that's when Break-downs are truly terrifying
>>40392011
Yes, but sleep is the biggest factor right now.
>>40392025
Please note that only crits take priority, you would only have to worry if all 3 rolls were under 15

>>40392025

On your side here, we're messing around with powerful science and overstepping our sanity is probably a shorty choice. We almost blew ourselves up making the cairnsium, if you all have forgotten

>>40392046
thats also fine

Rolled 28 (1d100)

>>40392048
>inb4 we roll a 1

>>40392088
>inb4 that would be taken even if you were at the lowest instability, because the minimum is 5.

>>40392048

Well that doesn't seem nearly as bad in that case, I was in favor even when I thought it was a 15/100 chance

>>40392103
wait when we failed the roll to calm down last thread was that a break down

Rolled 12 (1d100)

>>40392103
Not if we also roll a 100 and the only one left is 14

>>40392141
Yes, but you weren't very stressed, so my random roll table was merciful, if you were stressed it would have been worse

>>40392169
ok so what would build stress then to much super villain BS failing to build a project

>>40392232
Yes, those would do it, but other factors in quest affect it too, such as exhaustion, relationship troubles, and other normal things.
Gonna put a stress status in the sheet.

>>40392267
thats good to know
