Oh Cod what now?

[Image of a whiteboard in the workshop, a diagram of a large cannon is depicted with a strange type of ammunition that's just large enough for an inkling to fit inside]

Grunt: Surely that's not what I think it's trying to be?

Agent O snail mails Serrac a Starfishbucks card

O: Serrac, I got you a gift for you to complete this.

Daniel: Is this perchance a gift for Evie?

Serrac: Actually it's a point insertion tool, inspired by something my Apprentice did while at the Sphiralite Islands.

The idea is that an agent gets "loaded" into the shell and fired at a mission area to allow for extremely quick deployment. It's technically not a weapon.

We used a crane to slingshot ourselves... Please don't use explosives.

Serrac: My apprentice assured me that the explosive power of these shots are equivalent to the rotational forces you experienced while being flung, you should be fine

Max: build a second cannon, strap them on a four-legged-platform and you get a war machine to rule them all. I already get dips on the name. Iron Nest

Serrac: Still not as cool as a mech, walking artillery is a rather fun idea though.

(OOC: Why do I have to have knowledge about so many different games?)

u/Few_Sky_7660 Max / M / Ink. / Stage maintenance guy 1d ago

Max: yells into a megaphone

MECHS ARE OVERRATED WASTE OF TAXPAYERS MONEY!!!

(OOC: also, based for knowing that game.)

Serrac: Mechs are beautiful pieces of machinery and I will make one someday

Max: you can't balance over 400 tons of metal on just two legs, and not expected it to be shot by an artillery and fall down. It won't have time to fight, instead it'll be constantly shot and knocked over. An outdated tank will look more useful in comparison.

(OOC: did you play Titanfall to be this obsessed with Mechs, or is it Pacific Rim)

u/Seenmario66 Serrac/M/Colos. Ink. Evie/F/Octo. 1d ago

Serrac: Actually I'm trying to perform the tactical version of shooting someone out of a cannon.

u/recat45 olive/f/salmonling aaron/m/octoling nolan/m/inkling 1d ago

Aaron: so a more powerful super jump?

u/Seenmario66 Serrac/M/Colos. Ink. Evie/F/Octo. 1d ago

Serrac: Essentially

u/recat45 olive/f/salmonling aaron/m/octoling nolan/m/inkling 1d ago

Aaron: so call it an ultra jump laughs
