[ The tablet does not have an app to shut down the lightning, Mob, and in fact holding a metal object when there is lightning in a room is a bad idea. It's a good thing he sent the message to his phs because that tablet is getting zapped. someone save him
The sword stops glowing once they get near the portal room, though the inside storm only seems to pick up its pace. Glass shatters around them as scientific looking objects slam into walls and the floor around them. Metal desks and tables are also floating and being slammed around. Between that and the lightning, it's a complete miracle Ange crosses the room nearly unscathed; only a few cuts from loose glass shards aesthetically on her face. It's for the drama.
HC and Izumo are behind a bit, and since Izumo is looking, she might notice a large lever switch near the portal. Which. Would be dramatic to reach except Ange did it by rolling an eighteen. Hilarious. ]
[Hua Cheng is still not his dad, but he feels pretty terrible, and he trusts him a little more by now, so he'll get no protests from him. He definitely gets zapped, but drops the tablet to the ground, so maybe the damage isn't that bad.
He - is pretty used to walking through rooms where all the objects are getting floated and thrown around, but usually he's the cause. This is - hmm. He'll just wait for Ange to pull the level I guess?]
This stupid miracle, ruining all tension at the end of this CYOA.
Regardless, it is a legitimate miracle she makes it across, but Ange carries gamely on, keeping her head down and with one arm dangling uselessly at her side. She only needs one arm though to pull the lever! Since it's right by the lever, I'm assuming she sees it the moment she pauses to glance around to see how the rest of her party is doing.
Imagine if both of her arms had been broken in this moment. Hilarious.
[ Nothing like a good ol' CYOA to get you to bond and fast track some CR, huh.
Hua Cheng handles Izumo carefully, at least, and keeps close watch of Mob and Ange both as they come into the chaos of the room. How the hell Ange makes it across the room, he doesn't know. A true miracle of some higher power having mercy on her - it's totally still tense, because they don't quite know what's going to wind up happening, do they.
... wisely, after seeing Mob get shocked with the tablet, he's going to drop his saber for now. If they wind up needing it, he'll pick it back up again. ]
[ hopefully, despite the lighting being attracted to metal, it won't be attracted to her sword? but than that, she's vibing while being carried and making sure that the lever is all that needs to be noticed in this room. it's the last time they'll be here and now she can stop being hyper-focused on leading them out this hellscape?
anything on the ceilings? notes stubbornly pinned down? look, she has a reason to want to soak in as much details as she can gather from all of this place. but also!! please let this lever do the trick. ]
[ Well, the good news is, Ange pulls the lever (kronk) and everything stops. The lightning, the portal, the glow, even the ominous world breaking behind them. It all just... stops. Everything is quiet.
Of course, then there's a bright light as everything is blown away when the portal explodes, their surrounding turning white as none of them can hear anything anymore. They will be blown back all the way to the northern area! They will literally show up like that to out of there. Possibly with some more damage from the explosion. Rip to Ange mostly since the others were more near the doorway.
They will see the silhouette of the winged lady as their vision whites out, and a second silhouette of three green eyes in the white? But I'm sure that's fine and normal. The good news is they get to keep their loot? Even the sabre HC put down. it was blown back with him.
