I would so thoroughly die in that situation, no matter how much time the slowly-advancing Boom-monster gave me. It'd be, like, "must escape! But... ew ew ew ew I touched it ew! ... Ew!"

... Also I can't climb ropes. Or throat pipes.

Not just a matter of "ew" but of knowing what to do. Maybe the alien transmission Rosemary received yesterday told her how to stop the Boom-monster.

Hmm. I think it's just Rosemary Wells' inherent (evil) awesomeness at work! It's probably the kind of creative thinking under pressure that got her assigned to this mission by her shadowy evil superiors in the first place, I'd guess.

Also, not yet sure whether her plan is to try to stop the monster, or just to figure out what happened to Carter and try to find cover with him somewhere.

I think Rosemary just earned an achievement:

I think that if you locked RDA in a room with nothing but Nazi bones, Nazi occult super-science cybernetic parts, ancient inscriptions, and a flashlight, he'd stomp out of it five minutes later in awesome power armour and just punch the boom-monster into submission. :P

Isn't that how Tony Stark did it in the first Iron Man film?

Hmm. The person on this planet who comes closest to being Tony Stark is Spratt... Who knows, maybe he'll have a look at all this cyborg tech, and get some fun ideas for putting the future Ruby Ray Mk. 3 to use... :P

RicoRay3, please.
Edjamin seems to be letting on that he kind of likes the Action Man. Maybe more than that?
