Harnel blinks at Wenomir, "What's DNA? Why do I have it?"
The SETs may realize this may be a bit tougher than flowcharts and diagrams.
Wenomir rubs the back of his head. Science isn't his strongest subject even when he's entirely sober. Being mildly tipsy doesn't help.
"It's, uh... something everyone has that is information about who we are coded in our body. Or something. I mostly remember the bending lines."

"I don't blame her. I'm used to gross stuff, and I still don't wanna do this." Justin says. Of course he's just be a lazy bones. "Dont have too much fun without us, okay Lily?"
He can't be too lazy, or he wouldn't loot near so much stuff as he does!
Lily climbs up on the chairs and cleans each table, one at a time, then cleans the chairs once she no longer needs to clean them.
Meanwhile, the men have the bathroom to tackle.
I have no idea how bad the bathroom is. I'm a little scared to find out!

Calvin relaxes sinking back into the couch again.
"I finally passed my last test to become an official EMT," Charity says. "I got behind because I was attacked by these weird chaos threads that came out of a sky portal on my way to one exam, and that got me behind the rest of the class. At least I'm caught up now. I think I'll take a break from classes for a bit, but eventually I have to decide if I want to move on to become a Paramedic or even a Nurse."

Information is exchanged. The description of the laboratories starts here, and moves on through the thread, described by Moon Called.
Loot is loot. Chores are chores. The two have nothing to do with each other.
Oh the bathroom. Imagine the horror stories told by the likes of minimum wage fast food employees and add on years of neglect.
The urinals are lucky enough to be little more than dusty, even if underneath they're grimy and upleasant. The stalls are a different story. The walls of each side are covered with graffiti, while the floor around the toilets are grimy and brown. Every single toilet has a black ring around the inside. The very worst is the final stall, where there's something... large and hairy clogging the toilet.

Doesn't look like these two will be getting along too well then. The Wizard prefers almost the polar opposite approach, fighting only it absolutely necessary.
I'm sure that works quite well ma'am, but- The roaring becomes sobbing and the Wizard's speech falters, looking to where the path dips farther down into the blackness and towards the source of the noise. A demon, crying? That... didn't seem quite right.
But I think I must insist we at least try the binding ritual before you attempt to bludgeon it to death.

"It's already been bound, and we know that that didn't work. It was fine for maybe several hundred years, but now the spell's failing. Binding it again will have the same problem. Kill it, however, and it probably won't cause any more trouble." Undead demons being the 'probably'.

That is true and I don't propose leaving this creature to trouble further generations. What I was suggesting was to renew the binding first, so that it might be weakened.

"Don't you just hate those chaos spewing portals? Anyways that is great, congratulations. So are you thinking about continuing studying?"
"I think I will. I have to decide which path to take though. And since I could use a break from the books anyway, I figure I should take some time off from that. And besides, what I learn on the job might help me decide. Or I may decide to stay an EMT." Charity says.

Fortunately for Tito, he doesn't make it as far as the stalls. He stops at the urinals, and peers at them strangely. "What kind of chamberpots are these? They don't look like the others. Are they for elves or something?" He's thinking elves have skinny enough bottoms to sit on these weird things. That they might be used for standing doesn't occur to him. Even if he were full grown, he wouldn't be tall enough to use them!
I'm sure Mrs. Bloodplunder enjoys contemplating them. That way she gets to kill it again.
"That... OK. That might work. I'll provide a distraction when you've started it." With her epic whacking skills.

With the information exchanged and everything agreed, Roberts takes his leave. He has work to do...

"Urinals," Justin answers. "They're for if you only have to pee, so there's less of a line for the bathroom and it wastes less water."
Back in the bowling room, Lily may not be alone in the room as she cleans the table. Something is watching her. Something angry, and outraged! At the little thing cleaning in the big room, yes, but much more angry at the bigger blue thing that entered the bathroom. The hell does blue-thing think he's doing? It didn't give permission for more to live here. It barely tolerates blue-thing.

She raises her fists, then collapses in a heap on the ground. This music plays and a shower of copper coins rains down around the gathered arsonists. As well as several flasks of weak potions of healing, a rusty dagger, fifteen bat wings, and one "rotting bear carcass". Any of the current PCs might also level/gain XP, but only if they swing that way.
Latalla remains out cold for the time being.

Dalton rolls his eyes, before looting Latalla's unconscious form. Those healing potions look like they might be of use eventually, and everyone can always use another rusty dagger, right?

"That's OK. She's now our decoy. Dump her nearby with petrol and a box of matches, and away we go. You work on blocking that window; I'll sort her out." Ekkehard will stand up and go to pick Latella up to carry her to a nearby alleyway.

Good, then it's settled. All I need for the ritual is the demon's name. And chalk, but chalk he already has in surplus. Any half-way decent ritualist can always be counted on to produce candles, matches, chalk and even blood should the situation demand it. So, I will go first and promise the demon to unbind him should he tell me his name. If that doesn't work, I shall try a less specific ritual. Another thing you can count on ritualists for is a variety of options in dealing with demons.

And I (and happyturtle) wouldn't have her any other way.
"And if he, or she, or it, doesn't tell you, I'll hit him, or her, or it with my flail until he, or she, or it, does tell you his, or her, or its, name." Demons don't necessarily fall into the same two genders as humanity.

Mrs. Bloodplunder will follow, her flail held ready to whack anything that jumps out at her. Or the wizard, if he starts speaking with a funny voice and mysteriously floating without letting her know first.

Cave of Being
Then he shall see a certain scene in front of him.
Above a small pool of lava is a man chained to the surrounding walls. He's covered in blood, as he's tried to work free of his bindings oh so much. Except for, of course, the trails left from the recent tears as they went down his body.
His face lifts up as he senses another person in the room and he looks back down. "Just go away, I'm not in the mood for another hallucination today..."
Lava pools? In a relatively small cave system? Wouldn't the radiant heat have turned the whole place into an oven by now?
Unless it's magic lava. It's probably magic lava. Let's hope it's magic lava, otherwise I suspect the Wizard is screwed.
Anywhoo.
That may be. But we are not hallucinations. The Wizard is at once glad for and cursing the heavy cloak he wears. On the one hand, it's useful for concealing the ritual tablet in the crook of his arm. On the other, it's damnably warm. We are here to free you, oh mighty one.

Mrs. Bloodplunder will stay on guard and get ready to hit anything that gets too close. Except possibly the wizard. "How do we know he's the demon and not a decoy?" Is whispered to the Wizard.

It's magic lava of course.
The man doesn't look up. "Mighty?"
He stares at them with a piercing gaze. "MIGHTY!?" he roared, a wave of heat coming blasting out. "If I was so mighty, would I be chained up here while that...imposter pretends to be me!?"
He roared his rage. "It's bad enough he's damaging my reputation, I see no reason why I must suffer through these delusions! Just leave me be..."
"A star certainly seems like an infinite source of power as well, yes?" the pony replies as he continues nomming his food. "But it isn't. Vast beyond comprehension, sure. But ultimately limited. As is any power source for anything."
Mmm... tasty carrots...
"Different universes function by different sets of laws. Though there are a few that seem to be more or less consistent. That's part of what makes the Nexus so fascinating! All these different sets of rules all operating at once and jostling into each other with sometimes silly and sometimes scary results! It's such a wonder place to study."
Om nom nom broccoli!
Very interesting interactions. I don't suppose you have any theories as to what specifically caused all those green soldiers to form? Natural occurrences or do you think it was intentional?
Kribulkin Street
Latalla does not struggle or resist in any way as she is unconscious. =D

Oh, good. 'And then they all fried like bacon in a pan' wouldn't have made for a very interesting ending.
The Wizard falls back a step, shielding his face against the rush of blistering heat. But no sooner does the roaring end then he advances towards the demon again, coming as close to edge of the lava as he dares.
Even the mighty might fall, oh... dark one? In truth, it was rather hard to see the being before him as anything more than pitiful. But demons are at their most dangerous when they feign innocence. And soon... Soon you will be free, to rid yourself of the imposter!
