"Didn't tranq did track." Lights up. "Want a tranq dart on the tracker bot he's wearing, Glam."

Permalink
"Liquids I conjure don't last inside bodies. Put a tranq bot on Rewind, he's always coming for her."

Indeed, he is, between that and moving the heroes away from Lung.
Permalink

Rewind gets company. Company that knows which Oni Lee is the latest model.

Permalink

And Oni Lee appears right behind her, grenade in hand—

Permalink

A bot flings itself on the grenade and another stabs him in the carotid with a tranq.

Permalink

It's duplicated another five times before Oni Lee goes down. Rewind boops Lung one more time, and the PRT trucks pull up outside.

Permalink

"Oh thank god for foam," says Lorica.

Permalink

Indeed! The variations in Lung's facial expressions whenever he's booped into an increasingly bad situation are also quite something. Rewind boops him into place a few more times while he's buried in foam, and the variously incapacitated and restrained thugs start being moved into trucks.

Permalink
Phew.

Lorica status-checks all the Wards on the ground.
Permalink

Everyone's more-or-less okay. Miss Militia and Windflower have variously deep cuts, Armsmaster's armor took most of the damage from grenades and Lung's... Lungness... Glimmer's forcefield means she's pretty unscathed, neither Glam nor Silica were actually on site, Echo sat this one out.

Permalink

Miss Militia and Windflower are within ten minutes of some of the injuries. Lorica sends Rewind their way.

Permalink

Rewind asks them for permission to remove ten minutes' worth of memories from them.

Permalink

Miss Militia declines, Windflower accepts.

Permalink
So Windflower is sent back to the past.

The various thugs have been loaded into the various trucks, as well as Oni Lee—after being thoroughly foamed and having his eyes covered.

Lung will be another matter entirely.
Permalink

Bot on the comms updates Windflower on what she missed.

Permalink
The PRT officers find a way to spray anti-foam in strategic places and move Lung like a huge block of foam.

"This... was fantastic work, honestly," Armsmaster says. "I must commend you all for it, and especially you, Lorica, for the strategy."
Permalink

"You'll be going high places in the Protectorate if you keep this good work up," he says, a bit awkwardly.

Permalink

"...Thank you."

Permalink

"Anyway, let's return to the PHQ to debrief, and then everyone has the rest of the night off."

Permalink

Assembly! Debriefing! So exciting!

Permalink
Not very much! There isn't a whole lot to talk about, since they actually succeeded in spite of the wrench Oni Lee threw into the plan, it's mostly just congratulating each other and going over some details of the engagement, then details about how to handle the media. In other words, same old.

And then they're dismissed for the night.

"My body can't decide whether I'm wired or need to crash," Lorica comments to Glam.

Permalink

"I'm pretty much the same. I predict lots of tossing and turning. And, we actually captured Lung. Talk about morale boost."

Permalink

"I got footage of those faces he was making over and over again."
