We start off with some updates to Rose’s entry on SBURB to GameFaqs. I won’t detail it all here but it’s some essential instructions on how to not die while playing the game. The really short version.

• place the Phernalia and don’t touch the Cruxtruder until ready.

• get punch card ready in Lathe

• get the Cruxite dowel

• make dowel into a totem using the lathe

• put totem into Alchemizer

• eat fruit?

Rose is essentially saving lives at this point as she’s noticed a dramatic uptick in meteors falling. She can only hope her instructions are getting out there in time. But she also must know that each could represent death for somebody.

Her batteries are dying and she doesn’t have power. She considers a plan to get to the cat mausoleum in her back yard to access its generator.

For now she’s going to help John prototype his Sprite. This proves to be challenging as it doesn’t want to be prototyped with just any old thing. John and Rose try to distract it but it ends up bumping into Nana’s ashes, then disappearing.

Not sure where it went, Rose provides a different goal. Get the server disc from the car. She points out the real world is on fire and she may need a way out. But, Rose has blocked the front door with the Cruxtruder. She can’t move it without a significant amount of grist. They decide Rose should lift the car to the balcony so John can hop in.

John get hunted a bit by his grandma combined with the harlequin sprite, but it again disappears

turtechGodhand [TG] again tries to distract John with some “sick rhymes” but John is in no mood for TG’s rapping.

This plan fails hard. As Rose lifts the car it is dropped by her lost connection. The car then falls off of the cliff and below the clouds. The server disc is still inside.

That is a big OOF.
