Man, all these weird old kids' shows are making me nostalgic for Mighty Max. Moreso than usual, I mean, and I'm constantly 100% nostalgic for Mighty Max. Anyone ever see that show?
I woke up early to watch that. I kinda wished it kept going.

LIFEBANE being a skeleton isn't even a thing. Why make it a thing?
 
Personally I find it much more funny to act as if we haven't even noticed LIFEBANE's little quirk. Just act natural, and the most natural thing to do is ask for the food.

You've swayed me with the image of us acting oblivious about things, which seems the most IC.

He just brought up LIFEBANE's little quirk. If we've been pretending that we haven't noticed it yet, now is the perfect time to do so.

The underlined option makes it pretty clear that we know she's a skeleton. Also, just throwing everything together does not seem funny to me, it feels like we're trying too hard.
 
You haven't yet got a skill in speaking in colour and CAPS, so this is currently impossible.
i am sure this is going to be among our top priorities to acquire said skill

Remaining plumbing options: (to be decided in-game tomorrow)
3 1 days to get toilets and sinks (including kitchen) functional ($250 dollars including time and parts) Finishes tomorrow
4 days to get a proper shower installed ($450, plus however much you spend on a shower system)
1 day to get a cheap camping shower installed ($150, plus approx. $250 for the shower)
4 days to get various aging/damaged pipes around the warehouse fixed or replaced ($900 including time and parts)
man, all that and we are 150$ in debt already? we really need to get some early cash. Maybe burgle a storefront somewhere?

I would prefer if we prepared a bit before any burglary, at least to idiot prof the opretion a bit, on the short term what do you say about pickpocketing ? we may even be able to train our acting at the same time.

We still need instruments. As I said, we can always take from the cash register while we're there stealing the instruments.

Also, any ideas for instruments to steal? We should probably take two instruments that are similar so that we can learn faster, like maybe a lead guitar and a bass guitar. Or maybe a guitar and drums, as drums are comparatively simple. Personally, I think one of the instruments we get should be a kalimba.
If we do get magical powers involving music, it would be incredibly useful. It's small enough for us to easily hide, and it is a hand instrument so we can sing while using it.
 
The underlined option makes it pretty clear that we know she's a skeleton.
We don't notice the skeleton until Xiang mentioned it. Then we go 'What? Where?' Then we notice it and go 'Oh, you mean them.'

Edit: We need to store everything in our inventory when we steal. Then maybe use Lifebane's amulate to travel back to base. Promise her half the loot, maybe. Any good targets come to mind? Beside the musical instruments I mean.
