Blasted - Intermission

[Lazro]

>Attempt to pick up GOLD COINS.

(They are metal, aren't they?)

[snuffysam]

>Attempt to pick up GOLD COINS.

Are you sure you want to take one of the coins from the bottom of this very tall off-screen pile? Something tells you that would not be a good idea.

[FIDUSPAWN]

>Climb over the Gold Coins instead.

[snuffysam]

>Climb over the Gold Coins instead.

You ascend the pile of coins to find Snapper jumping for joy. He just won the lottery again! He is very lucky. That is because whenever a part of his body is severed, the larger piece of his body teleports away and gets really lucky at everything, while the smaller piece stays behind. Also, as part of his good luck, everything severed from him grows back.

[FIDUSPAWN]

>Figure out his weakness.

[snuffysam]

>Figure out his weakness.

Snapper can only use his powers when he is conscious. As such, he is weak to weapons that knock him unconscious.

[HexMix]

>Hypnotize him

[FIDUSPAWN]

>Fire the Paralyze Goggles against him.

[snuffysam]

>Hypnotize him

You cannot hypnotize him! You do not have the Hypnotizing Blaster. All you have are these stupid Paralyze Goggles. Oh well, these will have to do.
Snapper is now unconsious. At least you think he is. Either that or he decided to put sunglasses on over his normal glasses.

[FIDUSPAWN]

>Finish him by throwing the Paralyze Goggles against him.

[HexMix]

>Cut him perfectly in half with one of his metal coins so that, technically, he has no larger or smaller half.
>Or just defeat him

[snuffysam]

>Finish him by throwing the Paralyze Goggles against him.

You do so.

[FIDUSPAWN]

>Take that item and figure out what it happens to be too.

[snuffysam]

>Take that item and figure out what it happens to be too.

You got the Wishbone! It is made of bone. If you break it, you will get a slightly higher Luck score. The closer it is to being broken directly in half, the higher the addition to your Luck is. However, if you break it directly in half, your Luck score goes all the way down to zero. This is risky business!
Also, it repairs itself each time you break it. And it's made of bone.

[FIDUSPAWN]

>Head back to Jitterbug's room.

[snuffysam]

>Head back to Jitterbug's room.

You return to Jitterbug's room on the second floor. He is waiting there for you. Why wouldn't he? It's not like you're planning to line all his family members up and systematically kill them or anything.

[FIDUSPAWN]

>Throw the Wishbone against him.

[snuffysam]

>Throw the Wishbone against him.

You would, but you keep missing!
Jitterbug is just too fast!

[FIDUSPAWN]

>In that case, hit him first with the Paralyze Goggles.

[snuffysam]

>In that case, hit him first with the Paralyze Goggles.

The Paralyze Goggles won't have any effect on Jitterbug.
There's a small chance that you could hit him, but it's very unlikely. If only you were luckier!

[HexMix]

>Break it

[snuffysam]

>Break it

You break the Wishbone.
You get a +4 increase in Luck. Your Luck score is now 4.
The Wishbone repairs itself.

[HexMix]

>Hit him with the wishbone

[snuffysam]

>Hit him with the wishbone

You still keep missing!
4 really isn't that high of a Luck score.

[HexMix]

Break the wishbone repeatedly.
