...Think we could make a spike trap that looks like a subway grate?

I think I can talk to someone about making decoys.

<gameover>

[retested]

I could make that in my fucking sleep.

excellent

I've always wanted an excuse to build a high-concentration flamethrower for something.

The only "excuse" you need to build something is your own desire to do it.

<VIRGIL>

[nobirdsallowed]

Well, fair enough.

I'll draw up some blueprints, you draw up yours, we should discuss installation and part procurement.

<gameover>

Works for me. I work fast, so hit me up again when you're done drafting yours.

It will be a few days, but he later drops plans for a pressure-activated grate that drops directly into a motion-activated meat grinder of sorts.

I'm contacting someone to see about putting convincing monster decoys over these, make it more attractive to posters.

Nice work. I can make that happen, but if some innocent kid gets killed in there I'll have your head. Literally, I will cut your fucking head off. Consider that fair warning.

[In exchange, she drops plans for a complicated-looking setup designed to be placed in a narrow alley, where it would slice up interlopers with razor wire; notably, one has to meet a rough height requirement to trigger the mechanism. It's a VERY rough draft, but seems potentially promising.]

That's fair. It's been hacked off for less. Just a minute.

It's a few minutes before he adds an additional sketch, This one showing a monster decoy with a pressure button under its feet, so you'd have to stand on the grate and move it to get dropped.
