Events:

- It has been a long time since last we met, and to everyone's delight they are in a nasty sewer. Slime drips from the brass walls, pooling in slick slippery puddles of foulness across the tarnished floors Fortress-City Fate's innards.

- There is, however, a massive glowing red ruby ahead.
- Newcomer Oktar runs DIRECTLY AT IT despite the Admiral Ackbar-esque protestations of Dorian Demone, Swan the Swift, and Tyler Lockheart.
- It merely vanishes, sending Oktar slipping into green slime (but not Green Slime).

- Tyler attempts to help him up, which ends up with both of them slipping around on slimy slop.
--- Behold a Tube
- They decide to follow the runnels of slippery goop, following a sort of churning honking schlorping sound. They come across a capital-T Tube, worryingly organic, with man-sized holes leaking various colours of goop. It's made of tarnished brass.
- Tyler tickles the rim of the grey hole with his board. It starts leaking grey gunk and extends a little tendril towards his face...

- Oktar fists the purple hole and is rewarded with a faceful of aggressive jelly foetuses which begin to crawl down his throat!
- Tyler tries to catch the grey ooze in a jam jar, finds it's too big for one jam jar, and shoves the whole jar into the hole! It crunches and munches and spits out a floor hazard mad of jam jar shards! All metal objects on his person begin to shiver and hiss acrid fumes.

- Oktar is having a bad time because the jelly babies are trying to kill him. Swan lobs his battleaxe into the melee and hits Oktar. Dorian smashes at the jelly babies with his mace and hits Oktar. Oktar chomps down onto a jelly baby, gets punched in the belly from the inside, and goes into a RAGE!
- The raging Barbarian destroys a swathe of jelly babies with his Death Trance multi-attack, but heedlessly snaps his own leg and has several fingers devoured by ravenous jellies!

- Swan smacks the remaining jelly babies towards Oktar who yearns for Valhalla, this will be a hard one to explain to the valkyries.
- Oktar is torn nearly to shreds by the jelly babies as he slaughters them! Swan the Swift grants him not-so-swift mercy. It takes some time to finally kill the man. Tom grabs another character sheet.

- Dorian demolishes the grey goosh that is minding its own business in its little hole honestly. Enemies slain!
--- The Damp Descent
- Ian Brown, Mancunian Barbarian, appears fairly rapidly. He comes upon the party while they are looking upon the grey hole. It is much less active currently.
- Using a variety of ropes and rope-like objects, he is lowered down the hole.
- It's quite a long way down, but eventually he slips out the bottom of the grey tube and finds himself in an oozy altar room! The ground is slick, various colourful gunks slorp towards their assigned coloured orifices... and on an altar is a small scale model of the ooze tube!
- He picks up the slime idol and feels the very specific feeling that oozes shall not attack him and will, in fact, convey him up the tubes if he so wishes!
- He feigns death by screaming and yanking down the rope, so it's a miracle that his prank doesn't get him killed by his fellows when he returns up the tube!

- They descend by the orange tube, and the resulting gorp attacks the party! It's the sort of ooze that splits into two when attacked!
- After various amounts of ooze-slaying, the ooze is slain!
- Time is taken to think of 90's Manchester music scene puns that also relate to oozes. I shall not convey the results.
--- Urgh? Argh! Uhhhhh!
- Using the slime totem to urge some grey ooze onto the metal barricade, followed by some spirited crowbarring, the way is unblocked!
- Beyond are painfully bright electric strip lights and the sound of grinding rails. Less like skateboarding, more like trains.

- Let's split up gang!
- Tyler and Ian go left, finding an area with loads of rails hung up vertically like wind chimes. They jangle unsweetly, and will be hard to move through without making them ring.
- Dorian goes straight ahead, coming across a big mutant Dwarf with his back to him, spinning a rail turntable which is covered with various symbols and muttering. The Dwarf doesn't see him.
- Swan heads right towards some sort of rough music. He peeks round a corner to see a troupe of three huge double-size Dwarf drummers banging away while a small crowd of other huge Dwarves dance to the beat.

- Of note, several of the huge Dwarves have colourful faces and beards, possibly slime related?
--- Mahgahloooof
- Tyler tries to slip through the wind chime rails and fails, making them smash against each other and ring discordantly! Swan sees the Big Dwarf crowd start to turn and look, so uses his noisemaker slingshot to cause a distraction. Success!

-Tyler doubles down and rushes in. Inside, more huge Dwarves! They are mollified by his air-horn but don't speak his language, so grunt and gesture instead.
- Is the head Dwarf called Magaluf? It's unclear.
- He follows one of them through a room containing ooze-coloured (and dead) Dwarves and to a room with a big ol' pool of glistening ooze. It shimmers like sunrise over water.
- The Dwarf he followed mimes washing, then goes to wait behind the door.
- He pretends to bathe and feeds the Dwarf some jam as if it's come out of him. The big Dwarf goes to tell his friends, and they all come to taste the man jam... but that's all we know. Maybe next session?

--- Ooze Bath
- The big Dwarves in the music room keep miming to Ian that they want the "Idosh" he's holding. He feigns not knowing what they mean despite his only possession of note is the slime idol.
- He leads them back towards the ooze room, baiting them with the idol. Once they enter he squeezes the purple side of the idol and a whole load of jelly babies squirt out of the purple hole! They hit the lead dwarf dead on and... are absorbed into his skin. He seems quite happy actually!

- Ian tries again with the white side and unleashes a classic Gelatinous Cube! It glorps over the Dwarf and... he seems happy enough in there! He swims out and it looks like that lavender rosacea he had has cleared up!
- We leave it here because the Dwarves are fairly happy and nothing has gone wrong... possibly?
