*Nods immediately with a hurried lack of opposition*
Okay then, lead the way.

@Audacious

*Scans my ID, enters a bypass code, and the doors lift*
Somehow the system still thinks you're an intruder, I guess? If you stay next to me, I think you'll be okay.

A wire or something powering the barrier surely comes from where to control center is, so I'll probably hit it if I melt everything running from here to there.

@Audacious

I think the Panda machine projects those things. We should probably, really not break it if we can.

*Looks into the holographic distance out of curiosity*

There's a control center if we take a detour. I think our speedy friend's badge can get us there, at least.
*Nods to Isis*

@Host

*Glances back*
Uh, I think so, probably.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Host>

Don’t think I can just cheat the whole way there?

@Audacious

<Snipped quote by Audacious>

Now that the system has adapted for you, burning the facility down doesn't look like an option.

@Host

I found an extra setting! There's an emergency release for this room specifically, since it's a safety hazard.

Where is the Panda device relative to where we are?straight ahead? Not far, still kinda far?

@Audacious

I think it's pretty clo—

*Sighs*
So can I.
*Takes a deep breath, placing my hand on the wall near us, feeling for electron flow to pinpoint where power is flowing to the energy fields from*

@Audacious

*The wall itself applies a similar forcefield, but you do sense that the doors have been closed mechanically*
Uh, let's see... music player... humidity...

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Legend>

Hopefully it was worth the trip. Can you help us get past this security jow that you’re here?
*Thumbs to the gates and barriers*

@Audacious

*Stares, wide-eyed*
Uhhhh...
*Goes to a panel on the wall near the pool and hovers my phone next to it*
I can, er, turn up the temperature?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Legend>

Did you get the door sealed?

@Audacious

Oh yeah, weirdest thing. It closed no problem the second time.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Host>

Okay, we’re getting destructive…
*Forces the material the gates in our path are made of to melt away from the center, opening a path for us to continue*
Let’s go!

@Audacious

<Snipped quote by Audacious>

*Smiles and takes off in a jog toward a hall adjacent to PaMDA, which opens up into a glassy lounge, decked out with exotic chairs curved under themselves, an infinity pool, an artificial sun, and even holographic walls depicting a tranquil countryside*
I'm sure Dynamo will understand.
*Seven of the same containment doors start to close in this area as well, two on each wall other than the one you melted, but these are equipped with the forcefield along their surface*

@Host

*Catches up with you both*
Arte—huh? What is going on??
