Turn back.

EVENTS:

Molly digs around the junk heap a bit more, eventually finding a fire extinguisher-sized pressure vessel.

Molly: "Ah ha! I knew I had a slurry tank sitting around. Now just to connect it to her esophagus...

Also, not all of them! Just, most. You know, I just love complex machines and intricate systems, and - Well, what's more intricate than the human body? Oh, it's just a dream to experiment with. It's one of the reasons I built my sisters, you know! I wanted to see if I could function without a head, then one thing led to another, and...

What were we talking about again? Oh yes, the armbike. Here, let me just see if I can get her metabolism stabilized, and install a proper throttle lever - Do the brakes work? Well I guess we'll find out soon enough. Dum de dum de doo~""

Molly shrugs, while tweaking the doll's innards with a set of allen wrenches.

Molly: "Yup! A long time ago. It was pretty useful, freed me up to do more experiments. Running things alone was tiresome, I tell you! Kinda miss having a head, though.

Okay! I think, she's ready to go now! Try turning the engine on!"



She hands Eigla a surprisingly normal-looking set of car keys, and points at a small keyhole under the bike's armpit.

EVENTS:

Eigla turns the key, immediately prompting the bike to stand up on its hands, swaying a bit from side to side. The growths on its face light up, flooding the room in a slightly eerie green glow.


Bike: "Vroom. Vroom."

Molly: "Hah! It works!"

EVENTS:

Molly: "Oh, sure! Here, let me-"

She pulls off the bike's front arms, causing the vehicle to promptly fall over.

Bike: "Vrrr- Crack! Sputter. Choke."

Molly: "Oh whoops I guess we needed those too. Hold on!"


A few minutes of tinkering later, both the bike and Eigla sport fully functional arms once again. The shieldmaiden's feel, a bit stiff and unusual, but they're more than adequate for battle.

Molly: "Of course, silly! My sisters have their strengths, but do you honestly think they'd be inventive enough to perform such an operation? It took weeks of swapping zombie heads to get it right."

> Stretch out my arms a bit, gotta be ready to go into optimal combat mode if the meatblob shows up early.

"We're going to do a little scouting. If the meatblob is closer than expected, we'll try to call the pillarman to intercept. Do you have a telescope, or something we can use to see far away?"

EVENTS:

Eigla flexes her new arms. Yes, definitely too stiff for her liking. They can only bend at the shoulders and elbows, and barely stretch!

Oh, right, that's how human arms work. Squeezing a bit, she encourages the creatures to begin chewing on her bones, and involuntarily sighs in contentment as she feels her tissues being replaced by softer, mossier materials.



Molly: "A telescope- Uh, let's see... I think I had a- huh. How did, this, get here?

Well. It should do."


She hands the shieldmaiden a rusty old pair of binoculars. The lenses are a bit misaligned, but gentle shaking gets it back into working order.


Klimt tries very hard to not get skeeved out by the bikeperson. He fails.

Wait. did it just *wink* at him? Yes, look, it's done it again! Repeatedly, in fact! Curie and Emilia frown simultaneously at the indiscretion.

Molly: "Whoops left the turn signal on haha sorry"
