Iiiiiiii should probably go find some food. >_____>
Is sentient (feeling) and will wander around of his own accord; although he does like you and your siblings, he'll probably be more of a neighborhood stray than a pet belonging to you. He's also invulnerable and immune to disease.
...
Please tell me that the neighborhood in question will be Dragon. That'd be perfect. People would get
so mad.
You don't know, but you expect it might actually take a while. Upgrade isn't one of the Beyond who are fond of brute force. You do have plenty of cheap ways to end the world without explosives, though.
That's fair. I'm guessing that by "cheap" you mean in the one-week-or-less range?
I kind of want to keep the ammo backpack just so we can have a "oh crap, bring out the biggatons!" response.
If we want to blow something up, we have faster, easier, more precise, and more effective ways to do it.
The use case for the backpack is, in fact, not kinetic energy weapons at all: It works on anything that can be classified as a projectile. RC plane: Now goes super fast. Communications satellite: Hand-launch to orbit. Specialty arrows: much faster and therefore more accurate and usable against different targets. That kind of thing.
On the other hand, depending on how much we can trust CBCC to be responsible, I would be fine handing them a nuke factory. They are the ones who actually need this thing.
Simple solution: Don't tell them what it is
now. Tell them what it is in a month or two, after we've already established that we're responsible people and it's not giving us any new capabilities.
Note that it's currently heavily disguised. Once we take it home and take it out of the backpack, it's just a random box. They
might figure out that we built it today and held on to it for a while, but I don't think that that's even a major problem: Part of the point we'll want to make at some point is that we could've built any of this stuff at any time, barring resource shortages.
Currently, it'll just keep eating until you collect it and put it back in its sleepy-pouch. You can upgrade it to respond to calling or to head to storage, though. (Later, anyway, you're OOM right now)
Ah. Yep, definitely want that.

@Alivaril It sounds like we leave the details there for a later vote?
[1] Starfields
[2] Solidified Light
[3] Rainbow Crystals
[4] Water
[5] Light-absorbing metal shards
Starfields are
clearly the correct choice given our real parents, our implied parents, our real bodies, and our team names. After that, light-absorbing metal shards are a bit too edgy and I get the impression that the CBCC will know that we made them, so they go on the bottom. I'm iffy about water. Solidified light and rainbow crystals were close, but I think that solidified light are probably a bit more distinctive and have better associations.
