[From her side of things, it's difficult to see. She's facing the wrong way. However, she can see that there is wiring going from the pedestal they are on and over to the clock that currently says 55.0.]

[destage]

[Damn. It was at least worth a shot.]

[pointzeropercent]

[Well. Since she's looking right at it and everyone else is Suddenly Blind, she can see that it suddenly changes to 54.8.]

[destage]

[i'm so glad sayaka has eyes for this instance and this one instance alone.

But you know what, actually--]

H-Hey! Guys, that 55 went down a tiny bit!

[It seems like they did something relevant???]

I'm not sure what you guys did, but...it's doing something!

[moodwrecker]

[-?!]

Is that... good? Or bad?

[destage]

I'm not sure, but it's probably the best other way we have!

[...Though, if what Shalem says is true...there's worry there, too.]

Just please be careful!

[prozaic]

A piece of tile fell into the pit when that happened. [His voice is loud enough for everyone to hear. Sorry for your ears, Josh and Aubrey.

But he's staring right at the tile Josh moved out of the way to reveal the pit. Hmm. ]

[finalmix]

[ he's dealt with minamimoto who is louder, probably, it's Fine. ]

Hey, can you break the thing and shove it in the pit?

[ he would but josh is a Noodle, we established this ]

[prozaic]

Of course I can.

[He draws his katana, sheath and all, and slams it on the tile to break it, and tosses one of the larger pieces into the pit (17). Just to see what happens first. He has suspicions because there's necessarily no reason to believe all of these timers record time.]

[pointzeropercent]

[Good job! When the piece is tossed in, that number drops from 54.8 to 51.5.]

[prozaic]

[That's as good a confirmation as any.]

This is tracking weight, not time.

[Then he kicks all the pieces of the tiles down.]

[pointzeropercent]

[After kicking down all of the pieces of tile from that one tile, it is now at 47.0]

[destage]

It's going down further! Keep it up!

[finalmix]

[ when that piece is tossed in and the number goes down, he's doing some quick math in his head and-- ]

It's not enough. We probably need more tiles, or heavier things.

[ can any of the other tiles be dislodged without sending one of them into the pit, that's important before he nukes the floor. ]

[pointzeropercent]

[They can try to dislodge the other tiles, but will need to roll a D20 for it. nat 1 has Consequences.]

[finalmix]

[ successfully reverse psychologys avrae into giving me a 12

that means he is slamming a kouga spell into the floor probably i can't believe this is the second time he is doing it IN THIS GAME ]

[pointzeropercent]

[Go fight win!

He busts up another tile. More pieces to add to the spike pit!]

[prozaic]

[Pops a (1) while busting up a tile. KILL HIM]

[pointzeropercent]

[Yeah he's slipping and falling in the pit. Get skewered, Shalem.]

[prozaic]

[Enjoy the second time he's died and turned into crystal! This time, his whole body just changes, until there's nothing of him left and it's just all crystal down here. It's pretty, at least. And sticking around the spikes. No one is getting infected while they look at this pit.]

[pointzeropercent]

[He's heavy enough to set off the scale at least! The scale goes to 0 and the timer stops.

But then Teal does his rewindy magic to take it back to when Shalem is alive and near the edge of the pit.]

...

[I forgot to specify, the scale is up to above 0 again and the timer is going again.]

[unweathered]

[ STOP DYING]

...if you're squeamish, don't look.

[destage]

[...Sayaka sees the scale instantly go to zero and her heart promptly drops.]

You didn't just...!!

[THAT IS A SHARP ASS DROP, COMBINED WITH SCHNEIDER'S WORDS...]

[pointzeropercent]

[As if on cue, that voice comes over the speaker:]

Time is running out~
