OOC:
I think we've been struck by several-people-posting-at-the-same-time syndrome again., since slig# 5719 just said Flad's no longer at the door. But also Jimmy's character SU-01 is there at the lab doors, so I'd suggest just editing your post to have your character interact with SU-01 instead of Flad. Also, this is more a personal request, but could the people trying to break in just give us on the inside a little more time?
Obviously the characters on the outside are going to get in sooner or later, but it's going to work better for the plot if it takes a little longer. It gives us on the inside a little more time to discuss things and it gives you guys on the outside a chance to do a bit of teamwork and interaction too.
Thanks

As
Mars slumped down looking rather depressed,
Hembar's expression softened a bit. Then Anni spoke up, "
Is there anything you can do, like... like erase his memory?"
Hembar shook her head, "I may have some 'freaky native powers' but I can't do anything like that." Before she could continue, the door lifted slightly, but then it crashed down again - obviously her manipulation on the door lock had done the job she intended it to do.
But then she heard a robotic voice talking, "
This is SU-01. I've been send because of a malfunctioning door. I thought this might have been an escape attempt. Is everything alright in here ? Please identify yourself and report your situation."
"Damn it!" she exclaimed, "It's that robot again." Thinking quickly, though not really very deeply she looked at Anni,
"I wonder if we can make it look like we forced you to help us, that way you can explain being with us when the slig saw you. I know it's not a very solid plan, but we don't have time to think up much else, so maybe if you start yelling for help to that robot, that will convince it that you weren't working with us, and then us two can escape down to the basement before they get that door open. So hopefully we'll be out of here before they can get us, and you'll appear as a victim not a culprit.
Hopefully."
