“It's a good point. Bastard kicked the thing to smithereens, this world is fucking crazy. Maybe it is, I'm not going poking in the fluff though, I'm already covered in shit. It'll be a tamer version of a tar and feathering. So ah, what was it like downstairs?”

Ben- "Oh, Alex and Seth found out that the skeletons like to dance, so they're dancing them backwards down the stairs." Ben moved to the edge of the roof to see what was up with the pitter-patter of skeletal feet.

Skeletons were milling around looking confused. Some were running off into the night. Something weird caught his eye. The street near where they had the corpse pile had a dark expanse on it, as if... the corpse pile had somehow deflated?
Back with Micah and the fluff pile, Becky pushed it apart with her foot. Pure fur. Becky- "Well. I never got to see the guy. I'm disappointed."

“It was just a big fucking fluffy cat, if you like we can get my cat and pretend it was the nekimatra. Honestly, all it did was wave its paw and be fluffy. Then Ash kicked it to pieces, I'm beginning to suspect he just puts a bowtie on his own cat to be cruel. Is what Ben said true? Did the fucking skeletons dance? Hahaha, what did I tell everyone, what was all the fuss about?

Ashley- Ashley continues to chase around the skeletons with murderous intent. He was tired of them, and the faster they went the better. He apparently had not become angry enough to curse at them yet, but he seemed angry enough."Get...out of here you useless..."

Ben turned around and walked back towards Becky and Micah. Ben- "Yeah, these skeletons are kinda funny. The ones down there are just running around. Looks like something happened to our corpse pile too. Might have to take a closer look when it's safe." Ben looked over at Ashley and Stevie, wondering if they'd appreciate some assistance. They could probably manage on their own, but the quicker they got it over with, the quicker they could make sure that everything was all right downstairs.
Having made his decision, Ben headed towards the other roof.

With Micah, Becky- "Hm. Yes, they danced... Maybe they were under the nekomata's influence, but when it wasn't directly controlling them, they were susceptible to any suggestion people gave them. This... this is really sad looking. Kicking a cat to pieces. Rude." On the north roof. Stevie- "Get back here yous!"
Ashley caught up to his skeleton easily. Stevie's doubled back and tried to get back to the south roof. Then it noticed Ben, and hopped down to the patio, chattering its teeth (in fear?).

Ashley- Ashley did his best to rid the roof of the skeletons. He was entirely done with dealing with this creature. Maybe they did need to make blessed objects after all.

Ben looked at the skeleton. He wasn't going to jump down after it, because if he did, he'd probably mess up his ankle again. Ben- "Huh. Smart enough to run, eh? I wonder if these skellies are possessed by demons or something, because they certainly seem smarter than zombies.
Hey, you down there! WHAT DO YOU WANT?" Ben spoke slowly and loudly to make it clear that he was addressing the skeleton, and not his friends. Did skeletons have any kind of desire? Any goals?

To Becky."You said it... fucking Ashley. Wonder where the fuck they're all trying to get to? Maybe it's like a anthill without a queen? We'll be finding fucking bones everywhere for months. At least they're clean I guess...on another note, we're fucked if there's a fire." Micah attempted to shake off some of the still clinging foam, most of it had either soaked into his clothing or was starting to uncomfortably dry out. His skin was fucking itchy. Micah tried to console himself with the fact that Ashley had been one of the ones food poisoned earlier by the salmon. Seriously, who attacked non-flaming things with a fire extinguisher? Especially a guy with Ash's enormous bloody arsenal.

Ashley smashed his skellie victim with extreme prejudice. By then it was on the far side of the north roof, cowering. Boom! It broke apart. Its head tumbled out into the street below and shattered. He leaned forward a bit and saw several skeletons running out the back door, off in random directions, milling about, or cowering in corners - all down on the street below. One bounced nimbly over the barrier toward the Amazon campus. Back with Micah, Becky- "I'm sure there's more where that came from, unless Ashley used them all up spraying zombies during the last siege." Those busters. No class on them. Stevie and Ben looked on the patio in disbelief at the weird appearance of intelligence on the thing. Skeleton- "*It jumped in surprise at Ben addressing it, spun to look up with non-eyes, then turned back to the patio door and ran inside.*"
Stevie- "What the hell was that?" Stevie hustled back to the north stair ladder. From where Ben was, he could take a different ladder straight down to the patio, and from there follow the thing inside. ((Skip to the Comm Center and establish yourself there if you follow it there.)) By the time Ashley got back near the others, the skellie was out of sight and he could see Stevie hustling down the hatch to the nearest stairs. Across the way, Becky and Micah didn't look in a hurry to do anything special.

Ashley- Ashley left them, looking more than a little irritated and headed downstairs to chase off the remainder.

Micah glanced around at the departing Ash and the sudden emptiness of the roof, then back at Becky. He dropped the table-leg to his side.“I dunno, reckon the others need help? It's not like they're fucking hurting anybody. Seems kinda mean to chase them down now, they're only a skeleton crew. Certainly no bleeding mummy, I think I'd pis...freak the fuck out if I met one. What was it like?

((Jara, edit your post to reflect this: I said the several skellies Ashley was seeing were down in the street. On his destruction of the one, there are none left on the roof. Seems likely Ashley will go downstairs by one route or another, at whatever pace he prefers, and help cleanup leftovers inside the building. But your call, of course.)) Becky- "Heh. They are kind of cute... So the mummy. That wasn't so cute. It had grafted arms to its body all over the place, like... Well, it was just disgusting. Patti knocked the stuffing out of its head and that seemed to work just fine. But before that, it was scary. Be glad you didn't see its swimming pool..."

At last, Micah and Becky returned to the 6th floor. They found out the last skeletons were being chased out of the building, but it seemed safe to return to rooms and get some sleep...
((Post in Micah's room any last thoughts for the night or plans, and so on.))
