As he's about to head up in the elevator my dude catches a glimpse of what's going down and decides to stay and the last second.  Standing at the edge of the elevator he begins chucking rocks at the Scarftoppler, not bombrocks though as his brothers(?) might get caught in the blast.

Immediately, the clone knew that his time had come, and he knew what he had to do. Scrap-metal cuirass on his chest and sounds in his body, the clone proceeded to run full tilt at the strange, turkey-like monstrosity. Now was the time to prove the value and might of his noises and words! The many ways of communicating that he had begun to acquire had many purposes, and would no doubt follow him to, er, uh, wher-- wherever he was going next, he really didn't know and was kind of trying to figure it out even at this moment-- BUT-- there was one that was useful for this moment in particular.

 

The clone immediately ran directly up point-blank to the Scantgobbler with little regard for his own self-preservation, and suddenly: "AAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH?!?!?!"

 

The talkative clone uses Shriek to convey his confusion and unsureness about future events and stun the Scantgobbler!

Quickly realizing that his time to shine has come, the block obsessed Clone immediately ran right up to the scantgobbler, preparing his arms and legs to quickly maneuver himself to block an attack meant to strike him or another.

Calyx uses their Chi abilities, the only Relevant Capability they have, to grow some metal cheese and throw it towards the bird.  As the waxy metal splatters over the Scantgobbler's face, it recoils in confusion.

The platform sinks slightly on one side as it steps backwards.

Psolomon capitalizes on this, running towards the bird to punch it in stereo.  He notices that Psychic Lava spurts from the bird where his psychic punches land.  Speckles of the molten rock splash back on him, burning his skin even as the bird is driven back!

Soul Eater rushes the bird, gritting his teeth at the pain of Psolomon's lava milkshake splashing onto him.  He swings his sword and drives the bird back with his blade, swinging it at the creature's leg to sweep it out from under them!

Dragonrage's Dude smashes their shield into the Scantgobbler, sending it into the lava!

The cloth tying his shield to him catches fire.

Stormlord's Dude hucks rocks at the monster as it sinks into the lava thrashing around.

 

Powder Miner's Dude Yells at the monster, but it seems to be submerged beneath the magma!

Yours Truly's Dude hunkers down,  getting between his allies and the Scantgobbler.

Whisperling's Dude runs past Yours Truly's Dude towards the Scantgobbler, intent on shoving his vibrator into its throat, but, being in lava, He only succeeds at Luke Skywalkering himself, firing an intense pulse of vibrational magic into the lava, and recieving a wave of magma splashed back at him for his troubles.

Whether or not he's alive, he is as delicious-smelling and lacking of cognizance as an expensive steak.

The bird explodes from the surface of the magma in a brilliant wave, revealing that, if it had taken any wounds by the flurry of attacks, they don't seem to have lasted.

The Scantgobbler lands on the magma, kicking off of it and scrambling around on the surface of the magma as if it were some kind of rock.

It circles the party at a distance by running over the molten rock's dense surface, watching them hatefully.

Immediately, with the Scantgobbler rather too far away for the clone with the fancy words to pursue any sort of offense against it on his own, he instead elected to try to contribute to the monster's defeat in a different way. So he pointed at the monster, and he began to speak. "It appears that the Scantgobbler makes use of the magma present here in order to regenerate its wounds! I recommend making it a priority to prevent it from re-entering the magma if we are to have any lasting effect upon it! Perhaps this involves barriers, but it is also a potential possibility that the blocking clone could block it from submerging!"

 

The social clone attempts to use Speech to explain the monster's strategy and provide aid to the actions of the other clones taken against the Scantgobbler by doing so!

Calyx seeing that his cheese did not do what he expected, will sit down and begin to meditate. And as he does, he will form the ONION BARRIER. Instead of forming it around himself, he creates the first layer at the edges of the room's walls. And he will continue to continuously add layers inwards so that it eventually blocks off the beast from its magma. Just meditating and forming.

By stating the obvious, Powder Miner's dude allows everyone in the room to know the Scantgobbler's tactics...  But now the Scantgobbler knows that you know, and speeds up!

Calyx creates the largest barrier he can, a wavering, frail force field appearing around the edges of the room!

Soul pulls Whisperling's Dude back away from the lava's edge, burning his hand in the process, before preparing to slash at the Scantgobbler!

 

Meanwhile, Yours Truly's Dude throws his arms up in a powerful block, prepared to stop the Scantgobbler dead in its tracks if it attacks!

Psolomon prepares to deliver a flying echo kick to the Scantgobbler's face, psychic energy whirling around him!

Stormlord's Dude throws even more rocks at the Scantgobbler, distracting it!

Meanwhile, Dragonrage's dude tries to teach the flame good moral standards, only to discover that fire is the brattiest among elements, and resists his tutilage!

(19, 19)

The Scantgobbler shrieks, skidding on the lava as if it were snow, before turning and using its momentum to dash across the rocky platform.

Yours Truly's Dude leaps into the air, blocking the bird dead in its tracks!

Soul Eater's blade slashes at the bird's legs, his blade smashing a crack into one of them,

Psolomon takes this opportunity to leap at the Scantgobbler, kicking it in the head with a vicious psychic foot following in his wake!

The bird crashes into the elevator, the bottles of alcohol near the still shattering and spilling onto the magma as the bird flops unconsciously onto them.

As they do, massive puffs of fire burst up from the lava, the platform everyone is on shaking and shuddering.

Scantankerous Tim's eyes widen.

"Oh that ain't good!  One of youse best gets us in that Elevator, and quick!" he shouts, the alchohol and magma mingling in a rather unsettling fashion.

Deciding that there were better times than now to try and block lava, the block obsessed clone attempts to aid Soul in lifting the still to the elevator by actively blocking it from falling to the ground.

Calyx's cleaver smashes the Scantgobbler's eyes as he leaps into the Elevator.  Small glassy stones fall out of the sockets, shimmering with a rainbow of flame-colors.

Psolomon successfully pulls a small fragment out of the crystal as he leaps into the elevator.  A large crack splinters down the formerly pristine stone.

Thankfully, Soul discovers that the still is already in the Elevator, and had been in there for most of the fight!  He pats himself on the back for a job well done as he leaps into the elevator.

Unfortunately, Yours Truly's dude discovers that the still is already in the Elevator, preventing him from helping to put it in there himself!

Stormlord's dude dodges the Scantgobbler as it crashes into the elevator by leaping out of it. Thankfully, the gigantic burst of flames from spilled alchohol pushes him back into the elevator, instead of allowing him to leap to his death!

Dragonrage's dude leaps into the Elevator, but his fire fails to jump far enough after him!  As it sinks into the lava, it gives a single, dramatic thumbs up.

Scantankerous Tim closes the door, rapidly pushing the "Up" button on the elevator as fast as he can, and then...

Like a bottle being popped from a champagne cork, the Nutrivat Office is driven up into the air by the wrath of drunk nature.

The building flips, end over end in midair, everyone in the Elevators and rooms tumbling helplessly around for one second, two... It goes on for what must be over ten seconds of the building arcing into the air, until, as if by the mercy of a wincing god alone, it comes to an end, and the entire thing crashes upright into the ground with a deafening roar.

After a moment of silence, the building unleashes one final groaning crash as it flops onto its side.

Whoever created this place, they seem to have built it to endure what its location can dish out, it seems.

Sunlight streams in through the endless cracks scattered throughout the building, as the various members of the party see daylight for what feels like the first time.

"Well I told'd you so!" Scantankerous Tim announces with a toothless grin.
