Greetings elegan/tg/entlemen and welcome to a new page of this quest. Twitter to follow: https://twitter.com/TaleOfMonstersArchive: http://suptg.thisisnotatrueending.com/archive.html?tags=Monster%20Girls%20QuestCharacter sheet of our protagonist: http://pastebin.com/Nstgp51H His companion (Emeth) : http://pastebin.com/uvANnf1v Let’s get this show on the road despite my ongoing sicknessYou have one potion>One vial of pain killer which also act as a sort of healing potion, it’ll keep you alive for a few minutes longer in the event of a mortal wound or allow you to ignore your burning nerves if you cast too much magic. Side effect of making you sluggish and sleepy.
14th day of prophecy, location unknown, 12:20amThe next few moments following the long awaited healing of the Demon Lord passed by in a blur; despite your protests with the concern with a certain winged berserker imminent threats to your loved ones your patient-turned-nurse didn’t want to hear any of it and forced you to finish this newly founded ‘’spell therapy’’ while enjoying the good company of her retinue or, as she taken to call it, «little family» despite the two newest additions having been here for less than a month.All in all you welcome the fact that you won’t have to go through this overheating, forcing all of your nerves into an incredibly hot, vice-like tightening in your entire body is enough pain to drive a man bald and crazy, the constant shimmering of the (somehow) soft flame extending from the Demon Lord palm to the middle of your chest soothe much of your worries; which of course fueled a bout of paranoia about potential hypnotism, but the lessening pain and tightening of your chest along with the decrease of your palpitations won you over fast, when Mylen put her foot down to literally force you to relax, you had to give up.
Thus, with an overjoyed Bletsia charging toward the kitchen while forcing the reluctant Oni with her mandibles behind her (freeing you from her curiosity, the girl had taken to poke your arm with a stick), you took advantage of the lull in action to start explaining your situation to the Demon Lord, detailing much of the events that transpired following the battle with Wilmarina Noscrim; everything afterward seem to have passed by in a blur for the Succubus and thus, you obliged while leaving certain details out of the picture for the sake of your bodyguard, the events that transpired interested Daiyu greatly, enough for her to look positively taken in by your tale despite your total inadequacy as a storyteller and, once your long tale over, Daiyu and her aide became silent, although the Demon Lord simply looked like she was relaxed because she soon stretched comfortably on the bed; making you finally realized that her attire was on the light side…‘’Hrm… what do you make of her getting that knife anyway?’’The demonic Goat finally started speaking while you tried your best to resist the pain Mylen gave you as she squeezed your hand when the green-haired succubus gesture for you to sit beside her, your instincts almost made you jump at the opportunity, her casualness was eroding your common sense… or maybe it’s the constant magic flowing into you…Fully embracing your paranoia wasn’t wise.‘’I can’t say for sure…’’Finally, the demon speak up, her gaze falling down while her face cloud over by sad nostalgia, only the brief clamor of the kitchen in the next room break the sudden silence brought on by Daiyu bout of sadness, it’s almost enough to make you forget the disparity of strengths… something that wasn’t forgotten by your bodyguard thankfully.‘’…I’ve seen her grow for years and I lost sight of her for three decades, I don’t think I can pretend to know who my daughter is anymore’’
The homely feeling (as well as the inevitable mischievousness from Mylen bout of jealousy) evaporates as you feel a poignant bout of sadness and no small end of self-pity coming from the succubus, it’s a very complicated feeling and one that certainly work to make you feel bitter as, for your concern, you share Mylen hatred of the Lilim but for Daiyu, the situation is undoubtedly more complicated; how many parents can find the resolve to bring the sword toward their own children? Will she even be able to? This newborn soul link of yours is burgeoning still but the vision you had during its creation left a mark, the devastation of the dwarven Kharaks and Elven forest cities is a grim reminder f who it is, exactly, you’ve just entwine your soul with.A woman drenched in the blood of two races, a demon that single handedly reduced a set of priceless cultures to naught. …The soul link was a hasty solution; you’ve got to make up your mind about the Demon Lord, can you really look away from her sins? Doing so with Tsukiyomi was quite easy thanks to the tunnel vision brought on by blind, selfish love.‘’I think you need to retreat and take some sleep, Siegfried’’Mylen suddenly speak up, interrupted Belphegor who was similarly just about to break the silence, stirring you and Daiyu from momentary reveries as the both of you indulged in the buzzing feeling of this link.‘’Not before eating, yes? Bletsia has been waiting for our talk to end, you need to get something good and delicious, I insist’’
So say the Demon Lord, her hand travel up and down, creating a lingering wave of flame that fly toward your torso while embers spread around her profile, lighting up the matron succubus in an endearing soft light… unfortunately the atmosphere is broken by the little she goat as she plop down right next to the bigger woman on the comfy bed. ‘’Might as well go through everything good in this dump’’Mylen, for her part, simply look at you with concern, and then break the stare to observe your belly… and let out a dissatisfied sigh.‘’Right, some food would do him some good’’…Well it seems they’ve decided without you, what do you do?
>>29045308Look forward to what Bletsia has cooking.Actually, might as well ask about that."So, Bletsia can cook? Did either of you teach her? And should I be concerned for my stomach?"
>>29045308Pat the bed and have Mylen sit down ndxt to us.Also seconding >>29045362"What do oomukade eat anyway? Bugs?"
>>29045362Thirding, seems pretty reasonable.
‘’I never knew she could cook’’Trying your best to steer the conversation somewhere a little less gloomy, you jump on the first question that pop in your mind and look toward the open circle-like door leading to the corridors of this rather confusing underground complex, you can hear a little bit of clamor echoing from one of the adjacent rooms unfortunately out of sight.‘’She isn’t, it’s more like whipping up what’s been conserved in the alchemical appliances and reheating with a little bit of magic’’ That’s a practice widely used by the army and nobleman of your home during winter, given this wasteland of cold sand, it’s all but impossible to grow food independently in this climate of death.‘’I see… then should we be concerned for our stomachs?’’You and Mylen exchange a single minded glance of hesitation while the Baphomet chuckle, failing at hiding a rise of sadism.‘’Only if she try to cook for sure’’--You left most of your worries unquestioned as your hunger grew more and more by the seconds, the Oomukade came back swiftly with portions of nice, warm food nicely put into bowl, a mixture of meats and vegetables that saw you and your bodyguard digging in in earnest while Daiyu was given something softer given her status as a ‘’patient’’ something that girl was very adamant to keep going, as she started doting over the overlord of demons by trying to feed her, while the Oni chieftain who was forcibly turned into a waitress tried her best to avoid tripping and struggling while holding everyone portions.
And with that the nice homely atmosphere settled back in, you couldn’t find it in you to break it with the earnest insect enjoying herself in this company, friendship seem to have grown fast between these women; there wasn’t any trace of awkwardness between any of them, little jab and small pranks happened here and there all around the demon Lord whose wings were nice and deployed with her demonic friend shamelessly stealing a spot to rest on the leathery skin. It’s not the kind of picture you’d expect of the great, dreary lord of demons, source of all corruption, and the one mortal foe of all mankind… Even Mylen appeared somewhat disturbed by the ease and peace surrounding Daiyu and, deep in your thought, you jumped when the Succubus spoke up during a little lull, fatigue had taken everyone by storm and most were busy yawning and stubbornly keeping themselves awake.‘’You seem quite fine now, Siegfried…’’She broke the silence, waving her flaming hand and cutting the magical projection, severing the magical link reinforcing your body, causing a sensation of loss and hunger quite similar to what you feel around corruption, thankfully the unending nausea and disorientation inherent to incoming Overcast (the two most obvious symptoms) didn’t rear their ugly heads but of course, you still clung to Focus.‘’…We have rooms prepared, I’ll try to accommodate your war-machine as well if a storm pick up during the night. You should get some rest, you really need it’’Whether command or advice, you couldn’t say, Daiyu spoke with the kind of gentle insistence that remind you of your mother, a rather peculiar change.‘’We can talk after a good night rest, no need to burden anyone with unneeded worries for tonight, yes?’’ She’s pretty insistent, the link project something warm and fluffy that send a shiver of bliss all over your body as you cross eyes with those bright golden orbs of her.What do you do?
What time is it, by the way?Sure, Bletsia's teleportation scrolls can probably get us back to Zipang, and we need to get the Armor back there as well, but we have to be aware of the time. Because Kyorne is an idiot and he will cause Zipang to lose the war because of it.
>>29045970It's around 12:45 am, 14th day of prophecy, if you truly fear Kyorn will do something stupid, then you can bring it up with Daiyu.
>>29045289>Can you really look away from her sins?No, but everyone deserves a second chance. If she has truly reformed her ways she can be forgiven, especially if she manages to land male births from monsters and then lets everyone retain their humanity. Of course, she'll likely run the best damn escort service in the world and still advocate for a measured hedonism when it's all said and done, she just won't force everyone to get on the rape train whether they want to or not. If that happens, forgiveness happens.Let's just hope she doesn't get in the way of us giving Deruella a much needed TENDER LOVE when the time comes. She don't have to help kill her, but she best not get in our way.>>29045962Damn I sure called it when I said this girl was motherly, all part of her charm. I said it ages ago, she made you want to fall into heresy just by being around her.>>29046019He gave us two days right? Because if that's the case the chain of events is wake up, port, then start begging the girls to forgive us and then bargain with fluffy tails and convince them NOT kill Daiyu on the spot when she arrives. Still, should ask Daiyu about him. She's been around way longer than we have. She probably had agents keep an eye on him, make sure he wasn't going to fuck with her plans too much because damn could he ever if he put his mind to it.And, sorry about not updating it sooner but here it be. Merry Christmas.
>>29046019He IS stupid like that. I'd tell him how retarded he is but he's too stupid to acknowledge such criticism. So yes, we need to bring up the fact that we are on a timer and need to go. We have a war to win and a holy nuke to stop, after all.
>>29045962"Unfortunately, there is a war going on, and it would be prudent of us to return as soon as possible. So, no rest yet."Didn't Daiyu want to come to zipang with us aswell? Leaving in morning means a higher chance of her being spotted and a higher chance of the peace negotiations being called off if the church thinks Zip is controlled by demons.
>>29046144Why would we bring Daiyu along? There's no strategic value to it and nothing but downsides.
>>29046144Thank for your hardwork friend.>>29046221Kyorn gave you two days, you said you'd be back in one while that isn't technically true, you still sent back the golem and two people pretty much right in the middle of monsterland, let's just say he's busy. >>29046228While going i nthe morning is obviously making it harder to go undetected, there's the very real, simple fact that siegfried is pretty exhausted. While Daiyu DID recharge him, there's just no beating a good night of sleep.
>>29046265It's been common knowledge that the Demon Lord wish and need to come to Zipangu in order tocreate the BEST END and give yourself a bigger fighting chance. Also, being safe from demons looking to kill her, she hasn't recovered to 100% battle readyness yet.
>>29046280Just because he's busy doesn't mean he won't make a mess of things. He's the kind of lovable idiot that's friendly until he gets angry and then does something that everyone regrets and was a hundred times worse than what got him mad in the first place. He's useful, but needs to be kept on a short leash lest he end up becoming a greater liability than an asset.
Seem like we don't have a consensus yet, one for resting and one for insisting on going. I'll wait a bit more, then make a tie breaker roll if needed.
>>29046265I didn't say bring her along immediately, only after we've convinced Tsu and Ame that she's an ally, and a much needed one at that.Remember, her faction is the only one with an intimate knowledge of the ins and outs of charm magic, and as we saw with Fry Face Deruella's side is nothing short of masterful in the art of infiltrating agents into the top echelons. She duped fucking Ahriman for Christ's sake, and you'd be hard pressed to find a man who can shadowrun as hard as he did. So you can bet money SOMEONE in the top levels of Zipangu is working for her on the sly.That's bad, really bad, need find those infiltrators and remove them ASAP. She's our best bet for doing so.>>29046280I don't remember us telling him we'd be back in one, it's just something we quietly hoped to pull off.>>29046354Weary is the head that wears the crown, as they say.
>>29046354Really? Her physical presence in Zipangu is needed? I thought that the Soul Link and healing her was enough. Not to mention she can teleconference in to any talks and be teleported to any fights.
>>29046354Then we better bring her.
>>29046454If you want to find the traitors in Zipangu rank, you need her. Simple fact. >>29046484So can I count this as 2 vote for going to Zipangu asap? Ie, no rest for the wicked?
>>29046498Catch a cat nap, a few hours to take the edge off then port. Make sure they promise to wake you.
>>29046525Sound like a good compromise, I'll go with that unless people come to an agreement in a few minutes.
>>29046498Another vote to go to Zipangu now. Daiyu stays here until we get clearance from Ame and Tsu.
>>29046594This, Kyon is an idiot and then when we know we can get the DM in safely we can move her in.
>>29046635>>29046594Well then! As this seem like the popular option I'll shift my text toward that option, you'll have to roll soon enough to see if Siegfried is able to keep himself on his feet, so I'm warning in advance.
>>29046658Sleep is for the weak
>>29046525Cat nap w/ Mylen and it's got my support.
>>29046586I'll second the compromise, let's be back before sunrise in Zipangu. Would also like to get another Jade so we can tell her when it's ok to come to Zipangu.After we tell Tsu everything that happened she'll see reason. There's a third side to this war now and if she totally duped Edan then she can be sure she's been duped too. Nobody was more paranoid than that High Inquisitor, even Tsu wasn't on his level. And now there's the knife to keep us awake at night. Tsu should know how dangerous that thing is, even her and her hero posse can't take a good hit from that bad boy and Deruella has people, people that can get her in her sleep. That needs fixing yesterday.
Rolled 2>>29046679>>29046670Let the dice decide once and for all. 1: Insist2: Catnap.
>>29046702You win this round dice gods
>>29046739Silly mortal, Dice Gods always win. Even when you think you've won, it was only because they let you! Just as Planned.
>>29046772So I need to plan on their planning of my plan......oh god it's the inquisitor all over again
>>29046810http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=62gzsqwEZCMI have to post this, it's just too fitting given your post.
‘’I don’t think I can spare the time’’Kyorn threat linger heavily in your mind, you don’t know if he’ll truly put his word to reality; your boast that you’d come back within the day could easily be taken literally by someone so overcome with rage; you haven’t seen this kind of man often, even less someone able to stand toe to toe with a magical machine, beside your worried about the girls sent out there alone in the middle of monsterland, Emeth might be alright but the other two…. ‘’No, I believe you can’’Mylen speak next to you with insistence, her hand squeeze yours and those ruby eyes of hers screams silent «NO» as she all but insist on her words physically, invading your personal space to give you the biggest reproachful stare you’ve had the pleasure to see on your journey yet.You can’t help but chuckle, which of course only worsen her expression.‘’Your barely able to stand, you wobble on your feet and eve now your leaning most of your weight on me as you sit, I’m your bodyguard and ally before everything else and if I need to put my foot down; so be it, you need to sleep. Be glad you won’t overcast but I’m not going to let you stir up an honest nest in your state.’’A meager ‘’but’’ escape your lisp and her frown deepen somehow, she close in enough for her breath to tickle your face and the raven-haired succubus whisper a hoarse «no» in turn.‘’Fine, only 4 hours. I need to get back to Zipangu as soon as possible’’For some reason you feel like you’ve lost and stubbornly turn your back on Mylen, doing your best to avoid feeling annoyed at her triumphant smile. You catch a glimpse of Bletsia, the girl is lying lazily on the oversized bed of the Demon Lord and looking at your with an intense stare, her mouth moving soundlessly a few time then stop while the two demons beside the Lord bedside stretches in synch.
‘’Then you’d best retreat now, you’ve probably already guessed it but I… need asylum inside Zipangu. The sooner the better but for tonight, I wish a sweet boy like you some much needed good dreams’’Sweet boy, huh?Then you see the Oomukade ball her hands in fists, then close her violet eyes, laying still and breathing in and out at regular interval as if she just fell asleep within seconds, Amarantha detached herself from the green-haired succubus and gesture toward you and Mylen to follow, which you did soundlessly, your fatigued body addling your mind. --‘’If worse comes to worse, I’ll force my people to accept her presence’’Amarantha position as Oni chieftain is strenuous at best and likely to not mean much after that stunt of impeding betrayal, but what really surprise you is how she seem to have all but forgiven the Demon Lord for all the woes she caused to her people; 30 years prior to this crusade, the demon Lord invaded Zipangu, those recent scars cannot simply be overlooked and cast aside, even if a previous generation suffered during the conflict.You couldn’t find the strength to question her, that girl was groomed to be a leader from a young age and is only 16 years old to boot; in her shoes, could you bring yourself to forgive and befriend someone that wronged you so much?Obviously the story is much more complicated than what is given at face value.‘’Anyway, here’s your bed, nice big and comfy like we love em. Do you guys need a separate room?’’‘’No, we don’t’’
Mylen answer swiftly, nodding at you when your eyes cross, you simply focus on the nice bed covered in…. red sheets. ‘’Well then I’ll leave that lamp, good night you two!’’The Oni leaves quickly, obviously feeling out of place as you ponder and dread about letting Focus go…‘’Phew.’’Mylen suddenly let out a voice and sit on the bed, slowly undressing her armor and boot, massaging the covered feet beneath while making herself a little more comfortable, she give you a few upward glances every so often and just now realize that she closed the door after the Oni departure. ‘’Siegfried I… I just want to say that I’m sorry about my outburst tonight. I would have done something very regrettable if… if you didn’t indulge my emotions, but that’s not how a bodyguard should act’’She spoke through clenched teeth, keeping her head down as overwhelming shame invade her body, provoking the few odd nervous twitches of wings here and there and stropping her movement.‘’I just... wanted to say that alone’’ What do you do?
>>29047311"Mylen...sssh. You're more than a bodyguard at this poiny, and I don't mind you looking after me like that. Thank you.""Now then, do I get to fall asleep in your embrace or not?"
>>29047311"as an employer, i pay you shit for wages for what you put up with, as a friend, i think you talk some crap. Everyone is entitled to their feelings"
>>29047311"It's alright Mylen, you don't have to apologize for anything after what I put you through. Let's just... rest for now."
Take her hand "Don't worry about it, we haven't been anywhere safe in a good long while and tempers were running high."Smile and then go back to the bed before flopping on it. "Besides, without you I would have probably run back to everyone and passed in the middle of a war camp. You help keep me in check."
>>29047311"You might think it's not how you should act, but I do greatly appreciate it. You've always been too good for me, even if you don't know it."
>>29047311Can we tickle her wings as we fall asleep?
>>29047526Same guy, I forgot to add that I wanna hug her as we say that. I honestly don't know how we're gonna repay this one. She's saved our bacon twice now. Leila would have gotten overwhelmed without her and we couldn't have taken Noscrim solo without taking heavy damage at best.>>29047643I'd rather lovingly stroke them and maybe mutter about how wonderful they are. No idea how she'll take it but Siggy's gone gaga for monstergirls so it'd fit!
>>29047643But the inside of the leather wings are sensitive!
>>29047694Then we mussst do it.Maybe Daiyu can even cook up some magic thing to let her fly.
>>29047694You say that as if it'll deter us from touching the wings instead of spurring us on!
>>29047694.....and this is supposed to stop us why?Lets be honest, if given the chance, we would all touch hot female guts' wings
>>29047760Anyone but Sight tries that they'll likely end up with a broken hand. WORTH IT!!!
>>29048235*Siggy tries thatDamn phone posting screwing with my typing!!!!
>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Veu3bBueVqw‘’We haven’t been given any chance to relax for a few days…’’You let out a long weary sigh and sit close beside her, your glowing veins have grown back to a brilliant colored blue instead of the deep purplish hue they previously had and you tense your entire body as you let go of Focus, cutting your magical link with Arnvidur and deactivating the magical drain, forcing him to preserve himself on the installed battery or simply shut down, you haven’t given any kind of command to the dwarf. Still, you feel a bout of joy at the fact that you aren’t suffering the worst kind of pain imaginable, no burning body, no cripplingly hot nerves, no boiling magical phenomenon… you simply let go of Focus and that was it.‘’…temper were running high.’’Your good mood evaporates quickly as the events following your betrayal flash in your mind. You abandoned Mylen to her fate in strange lands amidst people she felt no loyalty to, then reappear the next day only to be dragged in a battle with a Fallen, then of course the torture and everything that happened afterward… Without her, Leila wouldn’t have been able to hold the line for long, your confrontation with Ahriman would have killed the Purifier and alchemist; and then you went and asked her to separate from you once more for convenience.‘’You don't have to apologize for anything after what I put you through. Your honesty keep in check, I can’t thank you enough for that’’You spy a sideway glance, it’s been a while since you’ve been able bodied enough to take advantage of being alone with Mylen, right now she’s leaning on you while closing her eyes, her large leathery wings spread fully, one of them rubbing your back and settling as far enough to encompass both of your shoulders. ‘’I don’t think its honesty’’
She finally says in a flowing voice, opening her glowing red eyes to look at you in a mixture of fatigue, shame and love.‘’When you… wanted to separate I… I felt intense fear and anger. Too much to really put into words, my mind simply screamed «no» again and again, but I didn’t really know how to voice it. I’ve never really minded being alone, or obeying your commands but it just…. Sent me in frenzy. I don’t know how to explain it, I was so, so mad and scared.’’She finishes with a mixture of sigh and yawn. It’s pretty simple, really; she was very mad at your decision but doesn’t want to feel any negative emotion toward you, thus it’s highly likely she went and spun all that hatred on herself. She’s never been one to blame other a trait you’ve found honorable and endearing, but it obviously has its shortcoming.‘’I think you simply want to be –too- strong, Mylen’’Your sentence provokes a small derisive laugh out of her, but you press on.‘’You’ve come to identify yourself as a bodyguard, right? You told me that you only came to love me halfway through our relationship, but at the very start, you were my bodyguard and that gave you something unique, something only you could do, something you could tell to the people around you. «My name is Mylen, bodyguard to Siegfried Shieffer», I’ve yet to read your journal, but I did come to realize that you never really had the chance to grasp something of your own… and if there’s one thing a bodyguard has to be before anything else, it’s to be strong of body, technique and mind to protect who they need, whatever the cost’’
You can tell she’s taken aback by these words, you feel a little tingle in your belly as she turn around, closing her eyes and flapping her wins, you take the chance to run your hand along the leather surface of the closest one, the soft material is strangely hot and the raven-haired woman shiver slightly, prompting you to run your hand along its surface with a little more insistence. ‘’We’ve been warned all over that a blossoming love between a bodyguard and his charge is dangerous; I’m not old and wise enough to pretend that I won’t hurt you in the future any more than I can pretend to say that I’ll survive this conflict. Even so, will you help me fight for this future, Mylen? That’s what I want, what about you?’’Your words struck an obvious sensible chord and you feel a tint of remorse as her face fall, Daiyu amusement however, is enough of a stimulation to keep you from falling into negative emotions.‘’I don’t care about Zipangu’’She suddenly answers bluntly, looking at you with utmost seriousness, her blood eyes shine, and her brows crease slightly, obvious sign that she’s telling the truth.‘’I don’t care about Gwynedd’’ Her hand hover toward you cheek, her flesh is cold, so very, very cold on your flushed face that you are struck with a cold sweat.‘’I don’t care about the future, only you’’ You can’t ask her to make sacrifice for the monsters out of her own free will, she’s stubborn like that after all… but deep inside you, there’s something you wish, or may not, wish to say.Your misadventures with the Church obviously influenced your relationship.>Promise her that you will never, ever ask her to separate from you again>Don’t, you can’t predict the future.
>>29048572>Don’t, you can’t predict the future.The sentiment is nice, but we kind of need the future, seeing as how that's where we're living and all.
>>29048572Does she mean this in the sense that we're not allowed to leave a room without her or that she doesnt want us going off to battle without her?
>>29048782>she doesnt want us going off to battle without her?Pretty much this, basically don't ask her to go away anymore, stay by your side during any and all danger.
>>29048782Good question, needs clarification.
Compromise, don't run off to battle without telling her
>>29048834Yeah, this. Compromise. Somewhere between both.We're not going to bring her into things like the orion fight, or any places full of corruption because that's just stupid and will be throwing her life away. Gotta remind her we care about her just as much as she does us.
>>29048906Oh. Oh hell no she's coming to that one along with anyone who won't die like a bitch to massive holy radiation. Anything less than the best kill team we can manage will result in dead party members. Not good.So, if we do make the promise she will follow a "hold them off" order while we accomplish an objective?
>>29048828As the guy from >>29048707 I agree with the Compromise in that we'll tell her when we go to a fight, but she won't stupidly follow us if she'll only be a liability.
>>29049019Of course.You guys are looking into this too much, it's not an al lencompasing order. it's supposed to be a romantic promise but you guys are blowing it
>>29049069O-ohI-I can never tell what's a death flag with Mhlen and what's not
>>29049069Oh if that's the case, then accept, accept full heartedly
>>29049115That's because /tg/ is deeeeense!
>>29049135No, it's because you are a devious son of a bitch and we don't trust you.
>>29049135It's true ;_;Anyway, fully indulge her whims. Tickle her wings and stroke her hair.
>>29049135We ain't dense, it's just that you've trained us to be paranoid as all fuck about every little thing!I say agree then, was going to bring her with us to the remaining battles anyway. Hot female Guts is too good of a card to not play.
>>29048572>Promise her that you will never, ever ask her to separate from you againBecause reasons.REASONS POSSIBLY LEADING TO SOMETHING LIKE THIS!http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6fUJ6LehQ3IJust replace the king of hearts with a certain mecha-bound dwarf.
>>29049156I hate to say it, but this.also this: >>29049135
‘’I see…’’You take some time to form your thoughts, the hand stroking the inside of her lovely wings fall toward her knee and you grasp it gently as you close your eyes, allowing all guards and tenseness to flow out and relax your body and mind as best you can. The time you spent trying to one up Ahriman, worry about his strategies, plan his demise while trying to gain his trust left an obvious tired mark on your psyche and body, can you, in all honesty, say that these days didn’t influence you enough to change something within you? Maybe it simply made you more determined.‘’Mh?’’Mylen suddenly let out a soft voice as you squeeze her hand, your strength quickly make the both of you gaze into each other eyes once more.‘’I’m going to make a promise.’’You finally speak out, having found the needed nerve and courage, even so your hand holding hers is trembling slightly but at the very least you avoid stuttering.‘’I’m not going to ask anything like earlier ever again; I will not go into battle without you, I will not leave you out of convenience or simple fear for your wellbeing. I care about you just as much as you do for me, Mylen so… sometime my judgment cloud. I suspect there will be times that we will need to fight alone… but I’m not going to disappear again without you, not of my own free will anyhow.’’Your bodyguard closes her eyes and smile softly at your awkwardness, her hand cupping your cheek progress to your ear and she play with it slowly, spreading the coldness of her body all over the side of your face.‘’That’s going to be hard to keep’’ ‘’I know’’
‘’…then I’ll make a statement of my own’’And then she’s silenced. Mylen forcefully lean in and claims your lisps in a sudden, bashful, short-lived kiss, easily conquering whatever balance and resistance you manage to put, she plant her hands beside your head while propping herself up, gazing down with a playful smirk as her long, long hair spill out all around her, touching your chest neck and face as it fall on the red sheets of the bed.‘’I’m going to make you mine’’She speaks with renewed confidence and pride, flapping her wings and coming down to seal her statement.--14th day of prophecy. 05:35 am, inside an underground complex situated in the vast desert ruled by the Pharaoh.It is with a bit of weariness that you awake from your slumber, forcefully pulled out of blissful sleep by a pain of hand on your cheek shaking your head slowly and pressing on your face here and there, constant slow poking that rob you of the comfort of a dreamless sleep while your body scream in irritation, demanding more sleep. ‘’I’d have you sleep longer but… it’s been long enough’’A sweet voice, warm hands and a few kisses here and there, your blurry vision reveal a fully clothed and armored succubus hunched over you with a lovely, relaxed smile. A vision of paradise untainted by the demonic appearance, you grown despite your best attempt and rub the sleep out of your eyes without much success, then quickly work to grab one of those adventurous hands… but find yourself forced to let go as she’s much faster than you.
‘’You said it yourself, catnap’’‘’Well yeah…’’Not like you expected things to go that way.‘’’I’ll wait outside while you wake up; I’m going to make sure everyone else is awake, too’’She says while walking toward the heavy door, putting your hand on the handle before glancing back at you struggling to get up.‘’Thanks, Siegfried…’’With that she’s gone, leaving you to fend for yourself… and go back to business.What do you intend to do now, mister Shieffer? >Probably going to have to end soon.
>>29050001We get ready for the day, and head out to get shit done. We need to head back to zipangu
>>29050148Quite, but what do you wish to do before then? Port with the entire posse of the Demon Lord? Get back with Mylen, Bletsia and Amarantha? Something else?
>>29050001MORNING STRETCHES and teleport prep.
>>29050189I'd think that porting with the entire posse of the demonlord is a bad idea in the extreme. We want to port back with an emissary of the demon lord, give everyone fair warning as it were, so that there's no accidents and panicking when the most feared woman on the planet suddenly appears alright?also yeah, morning stretches, and probably a cold shower after what Mylen put us through...And yeah, teleport prep. We want to do this in 3 waves.First wave: Us plus a very basic group. Probably just us and Mylen and an emissary of the Demonlord's choosing.Second wave. Demonlord and our daughteru, full disarmingness and cuteness to further down on tensions.Third wave. Anyone else the Demonlord wants to come along, so they can appear and be present to ensure the demonlord isn't assassinated or anything during her stay in Zipangu.While the Demonlord's people probably will not be happy about leaving her mostly defenseless for that time. This will pretty much ensure that no accidents happen during this delicate process.So First port:30minutes-1 hour later: Second port5 minutes later: 3rd port.We make sure whoever we're with is informed of these decisions. So no surprises will happen.
>>29050189> Entire posseEh, why not. It's going to look bad enough jumping in with the demon lord.Maybe talk to Daiyu about disguising herself until we reach Tsu.Also go and have breakfast with Mylen, tickle her wing.
>>29050310>Also go and have breakfast with Mylen, tickle her wing.this before we leave.Then this plan: >>29050309Demon lord appearing out of no where is just going to get a lot of people killed or hurt or panicked for no fucking reason.
Just wanted to say bringing them in multiple groups might be a bad idea. Deruella might spring something on the pharaoh bunker when we leave
>>29050189We bring in Mylen, Bletsia, and Amarantha. We demand to speak to Tsu and Ame as we have some very good news and some very bad news.Good News: High Inquisitor is dead, meaning the monstergirl hating fanatics are now without a leader. High General would like to sue for peace sometime soon. So long as we don't start utterly decimating his forces and wait out the bureaucratical BS that he's sorting out after said Bastard's death we can all stop fighting.Bad News: Nuke's on the island, Embodiment of Motherfuckin' Strife is dead set on its use so he has to go as soon as a strike against him isn't suicidal, and lastly, there's a third side to this war. Deruella is in the hood, and she most definitely has agents infiltrated to the top levels of both sides because if she can dupe Edan, she can dupe anyone. Trust us, we know, nobody on the planet beat him in the paranoia department.Kinda Good News: We can easily find the traitors with the help of the Demon Lord. We were able to spare Amarantha and she sent Bletsia back as a kind of Olive Branch. So, please, please give her a chance? We really need ya to to not have the biggest whore sense Babylon fuck this all up.Need get her up in Zipangu before the end of the day, that complex won't remain hidden forever and you can bet someone's looking for it.
>>29050615Agreed. Though I think it'd be better for the Demonlord to bring Bletsia with her, so that it's obvious we're on the level. She brings Bletsia, rather than sending her with us and then portalling into a trap or something.
‘’Hmm…’’You could certainly use some cold water right about now; this abode looked pretty downtrodden but after a few moments of exploring you found a fully functional alchemical bathroom along with conserved fruits which were… put to use yesterday. It’s been a while for sure, Mylen is both passionate and tender and it felt like you’ve rekindled something very, very precious yesterday, you’d give your right arm to wake up to a lazy morning. Slowly, your mind drift from romance to business as you wash yourself and eat something of a breakfast, the lunch you had before sleep didn’t exactly fill you.You will need to somehow convince Tsukiyomi and Ame to allow Daiyu to seek refuge in her land… A most desperate of move for certain.--After a few more minutes, you exited the your room while trying your best to be silent and subtle despite the horrible grinding of that heavy stony door, you catch a glimpse of Mylen resting on the wall, bladeless and only equipped with her shield, your bodyguard wave at you with a smile and you cope a feel of those wonderful, wonderful wings, provoking a small shiver to run up her spine as she visibly swoon. Obviously there’s a bit of a newly-wed atmosphere and someone has taken notice.From the corner of the oval-shaped corridor and room, Bletsia is peeking around, her antennas poking the air as she look at the two of you, then her face change into alarm as your eyes cross and she retreat soundlessly… only to end up giving her position away as her numerous feet’s clatter on the ground, provoking a small echo down the building and a peculiar groan as a sound of fleshy impact stop it dead on. ‘’I’ll have to speak with the Demon Lord’’‘’Alone? Sure, I’ll wait’’At least she trust Daiyu enough to believe your security isn’t in question, good.
--‘’It was quite the wonderful night… thank you’’So say the Demon Lord, back turned at you while deploying her hip wings while the other pair on her head flap gently, the woman is up and about looking quite healthy, garbed in practical clothing fit for travel without any of the alluring grab and color you’d expect a succubus to wear; although the array of downright erotic dresses on her bed tell you this reality could have been very different.‘’You don’t… have to look into it that much’’Frankly you aren’t sure how to answer that; shouldn’t it be some kind of unspoken rule to avoid this subject? Love is love and you most certainly felt enough to fill a lake.‘’Nay, I simply wish to thank you Siegfried, your emotions are wonderful indeed; I simply do not wish you to think that this link is a burden.’’Finally, she turn in a whirl, sending a flutter of hair around her profile, the clothes definitely don’t do any justice to her and the simple, warm emotions flowing form the link is enough to send a flutter in your stomach as you do your best to avoid gazing into her golden eyes too much, she has taken very well to this invisible knot.‘’…so you need to seek asylum inside Zipangu.’’‘’Indeed, that nation cannot be allowed to fall’’«That nation» strikes you as odd, but maybe that’s simply because you feel too strongly about that country. ‘’I may have a plan of approach, it’s going to be messy whatever we do but at least they won’t turn hostile on sight. I think’’ The Succubus laugh, a simple, alluring, little voice that force a swallow down your throat as she walk to sit on the bed, embracing Focus momentarily to teleport an apple on her palm. ‘’I may have a course of action as well, but for now let’s hear what you think is best; you’ve lived with them for quite a while after all’’So did she, technically, but now isn’t the time to be cheeky.>A tale of monster -94- end.
Sorry for ending it here folks. I'm not feeling too good and I got a big day tomorrow, what's with Kurisumasu eve and my incoming move on the 26, I don't have much energy to spare. Sorry for this short session, but I might actually be able to do another one Sunday so I won't need to skip a week. All depend if I get internet quick enough. In other new, I've been trying to find a theme for Bletsia since she'll grow very, very important and that's about the closest thing I could find. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cD67QCxgeu8
>>29050615Shit, forgot the VERY Bad news involving that damned knife. They need to know she has it. That ain't good, for anyone not on her side that is.
>>29051001http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i6l_iIqrM2EOh hells yeah, makes Hero summoning much more viable. Tell me, she got anything in there that's a good choice for angelic slaughter? Because Orion is pretty much Zeruel in terms of Angel Combat Power Levels, we need EVERYTHING we can get on that bitch to get out without casualties (Song fits him methinks). God is Love, but Hadraniel ain't God so best we'll get if it's just her vs. him is a mutual kill. I really like our Angel, I don't want her dying on us.Her plus Faith has a good chance, add in a hero spec'd for angel killing and our odds are then decisively in our favor.
>>29051001S'all good man. Today was just a bit of planning and Mylentime, which I always enjoy, so thanks dude.
>>29051155Let's put it this way.Orion is so strong that he literally went over and beyond the ''common concept of mortality''. That knife was/is his one, hard counter. Only Batrion actually has a chance to survive one on one and that's because he's the biggest, baddest Hero.
>>29051204So basically. He's not the end boss.He's the rediculously hard side boss that's harder than the end boss.
>>29051285Precisely
>>29051204Yep, he's fucking Zeruel. Only angel to just waltz right in to the Geofront through the front door and not give a flying fuck, not even Beast Mode could touch his OP ass. Took multiple N2 mines to the face like a boss too.Still, even he had his limits. Gotta pile it all on, might even have to go Tsu ultima desperation attack and bum rush the goddamned bastard with everything she's got! Dear lord I wonder how long that scroll will take to make. Need Golem Army too. I wonder if they get Emeth's perk, would really, REALLY help us out.There's also the heretical route, pray, pray as hard as we can that our goals and Deruella's overlap in this one and only one instance and she, she... willingly helps us kick his bitch ass. Oh boy that's not fun, but it may well be our best hope. Geas contracts will have to be drawn up. Best take extra special care to pay attention to ALL the fine print. Good thing I'm good at that sort of thing, but my presence is never an assured thing. RL man, RL's a bitch.>>29051294Oh you just LOVE to make me make this face don't you...
>>29051294>>29051377Are we going to HAVE to have to fight him? Can't we take a third route type dealy? Cause I'm all for third routes and tons of magical research and a basic 'fuck you' without actually killing him.
>>29051377It'll be a wild, fun ride indeed.>>29051442Mommy said you need to do it, Orion will become an increasingly bigger threat very soon, to Zipangu and of course, a certian faction of demons... But with the Demon Lrod o nyour side, you ahve a very fair share, ESPECIALLY if you manage to have her work with Tsu; the alliance of Love & Faith would tip the balance in your favor very well as well, but it all depend on the circumstance of the fight itself.
>>29051001when does mylen get a powerup
>>29051529Only power up she can get is magic weapons. She already has battle precognition.
>>29051548the fuckwhens she getting the laser eyes you promised
>>29051604She got glowing red eyes, that's close enough
>>29051442Zeruel means "Arm/Strength of God", yeah, let that sink in a bit.Unless we manage a power that could seal mommy away or nail a double crit on a diplomacy check he won't back down.Also, INH, I have a theory on the Embodiments. At that level they get an aura that matches their Concept. Radiance's overwrote reality to conform with her beliefs (would really help out if she concludes Orion has to go as it would help knock a few points off his Invuln save), Hadraniel's strengthens positive emotions towards others and the self (thus facilitating psycological healing where it might otherwise be impossible), Ishmael's increases the guilt of the sinful and unjust (so they confess, also acts as a handy lie detector), and Orion's...Not quite sure, could increase aggression or more likely doubt in one's own beliefs and path in life. Those that end up enduring it and continuing on get a massive boost to will saves involving that forevermore. Kind of like the "Cold Blooded" perk in AdEva. Hard as fuck to actually get but a very big help afterwards as it's a free buffer against insanity/ego barrier degradation.>>29051548If only we could have kept that spear. Biotic Charge is such a nice skill for characters like her. Better get her a lightning or wind spear ASAP, not as good as a "true" magical weapon but being able to shock stab victims or throw the sonuvabitch at sonic speeds would really help.
>>29051643negron that aint lasers and/or/otherwise heat vision
>>29051652Your guess as to the nature of the Embodiment is very close, they don't work quiiiiite like how you described but it's a clsoe guess. I'm not going to reveal it quite yet because I think that has its place as a story reveal... or maybe Daiyu/Tsu can info dump since the yvery well can.As far as magic weapons are concerned, not a whole lot of them are left. Zipangu is sort of out of them for now, at least none to spare for the gal.>>29051686You'll have to be satisfied with sexy flashy red eyes.
>>29051772nigga no its iceblue or red with lasersI refuse to read any other depictions
>>29051772>Zipangu is sort of out of them for nowWe have a genius alchemist now; is alchemy capable of creating a one- or two-time use weapon with the same power of a magical weapon?
>>29051823Notihng as strong as a magic weapon, but low level shock enhanced blade could be possible.>>29051817Deal with it m8
>>29051772As long as I'm close I can plan effectively. Can't wait to see exactly how close I was. You've already strengthened my case for getting Radiance out of that blade before we even think of taking on Orion. I need her free for my plans for the "best" end to work out. I really, really want it, but I've invested too much to puss out if someone I really like dies. I'm officially here till the end baby, or until I bite it, rejoice, only the kinds of stories I'm all about get me to feel this way.>>29051823http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6w9LjxzEdHAGive Mylen one shot of this and I'm more than down for that! Might need "oricalcum" or some other ridiculously rare metal to make it work though.
>>29051896also when the fuck is emeth going to evolve to angel mode
>>29051957You must be pulling my leg here, I never said that'd be a thing. >>29051951Embodiment are mostly geared for combat, with Justice as prime in that departement (up until Orion change, anyway), it'll be important to understand them.
>>29052014Ok, so Justice can't take Orion's form change? He's like a Frieza?Oh great, fucking great. It's like he's SSJ3 and all even the best angels can get is SSJ2, we are so utterly fucked. Any chance of getting Ishmael on our side for that fight?
>>29052014the fuckI swear to god I saw something about angel mode emeth
>>29052075Oh no by change, I mean before Orion grew unto this massively broken entity that he is today.As for having Ismael fight, that's a big maybe, all depend on how things go.>>29052093Someone hoping for the impossible
>>29052108So 3 ways to best end:1) Radiance freed and with Hadraniel and Batrion, kick his bitch ass.2)Deruella's master plan needs him to die now, and we have the posse to make it happen if we ally with her for but one fight and we don't fall for Geas traps3) We somehow land Ismael as an ally along with Radiance and Hadraniel as they triple team him and simply overwhelm him!
>>29052185Yep, that's some good plans
>>29052204http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S4E83RKavUUToo bad they're all risky in my head. So many variables, so many things that could go wrong.Man this is intense, loving it though. Intellectual challenges, the reason I keep going. No risk, no reward. Gotta keep going. Gotta see if you planned around the shit I'm throwing at you...
>>29052329M:ake it double once I get back on the prequel, damend December and failling health forcing me back on a single quest again.
>>29052374Don't you dare die on me dude. I really like your work after all, and nothing pisses me off more than writers that die before writing a proper ending.Endings are paramount. They can very literally make or break a story. You can be all kinds of awesome but flub the ending? Well, to the masses, you just suck. A great ending makes even a mediocre work good, a good work great, and a great work awesome.A pity so few get this fact.
>>29052329They're terrible plans and should be scrapped.
>>29052493Why?
>>29052484I don't a want to die too, my constitution is shit so I try to keep it in mind but having my mouth mutilated and infected aint helping, especially since I'll need to do it again in the future.
>>29052529Oregano Oil seems to help with that, though I've heard it ain't a painless thing. Stings and whatnot. Still, never been one to trust all things I read. Do what feels right.
>>29052525All three plans don't take advantage of Siegfried's manaphage ability, and Deruella has the means to kill Orion and already has the troop numbers to do it on her own. If she did accept an alliance, it would only be to get close enough to stab Radiance, Hadraniel, her mother, and us in the back with the Knife.
>>29052755Clever...Also I'm suprised there wasn'T any clamor for lewd of Mylen
>>29053014Well we just assumed...
>>29053057That I will provide? My my, I see that's how it is? I must write the fade to black everytime?
>>29053071Please do your homework.
>>29052755Hence, Geas Contracts. Irrevocable agreements between magi. A binding of the soul that removes all concepts of betrayal. It'd be like:I, Sigfried Schieffer, refuse to kill Deruella Jawahir on the basis that said Deruella Jawahir does not corrupt those that I, as Siegfried Schieffer, deem invaluable to my own happiness. In the event she even attempts to do so all previous agreements are rendered invalid.
>>29053085How lewd can Siegfried possibly be?
>>29053210
>>29053210Pretty goddamned I must say. He wants the ultimate happy end and that involves lewd on levels only /d/ can conceive of. He wants to hold hands after all, one hell of a sin!
>>29053227 hold hands with Mother Earth?
>>29053290Impregnating his own mother.
>>29053290http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UYQ8gFiydpgNo, no incest. Still, she will play a role. She will point us in the proper directions. Showing us how to build our force to properly destroy the "extra" boss that is Orion. Might even need "Deruella" to help us out on that one. Again, not fun, but may be ultimately necessary.Don't throw away a good card, even if it may cost you later...
>>29053301Are we really going Oedipus?
>>29053376
>>29053376Let's not if at all possible. I can only take so much in that department. He may like girls "like" his mum, but girls "too" much like mommy disturb him a bit too much to see them as viable sexual partners.
>>29053467It's impossible to know with /tg/
>>29053187Do such contracts exist in this setting? I don't recall them ever being mentioned here.
>>29053611They were, but they were mentioned as rare and hard to get. You need a person who can touch a soul, like the soul healers, but they too, are rare as fuck.In the end, they are used as a kind of irrevocable treaty broker. Only the most important of things even mention their talents. We're talking things that avoid World Wars here.
>>29053658Quite true, Geas and other charm is a pretty hard and rare pratice with human and monsters both
>>29053658Looking through the archives doesn't show anything about a contract like that being mentioned.Provide a thread number, or even better, an actual quote from a post and the post number.
>>29053754I think it was only a passing remark during Sylphis arc if memory serve, I know he's spot on with that so he must have read it after I said it.
>>29053752Where was this mentioned, then? Do contracts as described exist in this setting, or is it only close?
>>29053752http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vpxz9pBGZMsKnew I was reading correctly. Loving this story though, keep it up. Hope you keep it fair, Orion ain't invincible, I hope...
>>29053777The kind of contract that involve Geass exist but as said earleir, they are very rare since oyu need a third party than can touch the soul and bind them to words, you need a human spirit healer to bind the human soul and a mosnter gifted with soul manipulation (ie Succubus) for the mosnter part, so in order to create a contract between Siggy an Deruella for exemple, you'd need a human spirit healer and someone like Daiyu to manipulate the souls of both parties.
>>29053840If our methods agree then it'll all work out. If it all works out to everyone's best interest then Siggy and Deruella might just land a Quadrupole Giga that ends him but good.Aftermath comes after, but if everyone wants "extra" boss dead and it all works then hey, all can accept an end where everyone wins, and loses at the same time!
>>29053840>>29053879And why would Deruella agree to any of this?She can kill Orion on her own with the Knife.If she lets us fight Orion ourselves, then either we kill Orion and she attacks us after we're weakened, or Orion kills us and she can more easily kill Orion.If she allies with us, NOT backstabbing us is a losing proposition for her, since at that point she would have put her own troops into harm's way for no gain, since as pointed out above, the ideal situation for her is that Orion and Siegfried weaken each other and she swoops in at the end to kill the survivor at little cost to her own troops.There is no reason why should would ally with Siegfried with a Contract keeping her from backstabbing him when the prime opportunity presents itself. Especially after we killed Noscrim in front of her.It's a bad plan because it's because on assumptions that are not supported by any of the information we have at hand.
>>29053925>And why would Deruella agree to any of this?Never said she will, I was simply giving an example.
>>29053925To kill him with said knife, you must first land a good, solid hit to the vitals. Limits to powers man, you may be able to see the "Lines" with MEoDP, but it means nothing, NOTHING, if you can't cut them when it counts!
>>29053958So what.That doesn't make it any more likely that Deruella would agree to something so monumentally stupid as to put her valuable pawns and a very valuable artifact in harm's way when she doesn't have to, and intentionally handicap herself from taking out all of her opposition when they are vulnerable and in reach.
>>29053933Well, this guy >>29053958 seems to think that she will.
>>29053376Always.
>>29054006Who says she'd risk shit? Kill "bonus" boss, port flunky "boss" away with knife with ominous warning. Villain 101 here folks.>>29054006Stupid how? Again, port all the good stuff away after mutual goals have been fulfilled. Plans within plans motherfucker. She helps us when she knows it'll work out for her in her mind, then kills us all when it suits her. Textbook villainy.
>>29054087It's stupid because by having Siegfried and Orion fight each other, both sides (Zipang and the Crusade) will be weakened, making her victory easier.She doesn't need to ally with Siegfried, and as soon as Siegfried either wins or loses, she can come in and kill the survivor. Why should she do any different?>Plans within plans motherfuckerNo, it's just one stupid plan that you can't see is a bad idea.
>>29054186Not seeing whole picture. There are an infinite number of ways it will all go down. Some good for us, some very bad for us. Either way, nothing is assured. We are nowhere near out of any of the so called "woods" as it were.Also, a Siggy vs. Orion one on one fight can only end in one way, a curbstomp in Orion's favor. I think we both want to avoid that end yes? So we both agree that we both want very much to avoid that scenario I believe yes?
>>29054375We don't need Druela because we'll have the Demon Lord and the entire monster nation on our side, as well as the upper echelons of the human forces and our brother's forces.
>>29054375>I think we both want to avoid that end yes? So we both agree that we both want very much to avoid that scenario I believe yes?That has nothing to do with what Deruella would choose. Trying to get Deruella to help would be a failure because there's nothing that could be gained by an alliance that she wouldn't already get by simply waiting for a weakened survivor to emerge from the fight.A better idea would be to try to get the Pharaoh on Zipang's side and set up large-scale teleportation circles to circumvent the Swamp and for troop movements.
>>29054472>A better idea would be to try to get the Pharaoh on Zipang's sideYou want to attempt a negotiatio nand alliance i nthe middle of a war, with a country that is essentially on the other side of the world?
>>29054725this. Forget it. We got bigger fish to fry.That said, getting the Pharoh's help when it comes down to dealing with any gods who want to purge the world of monsters might be a good idea. We'll have it as a stretch goal.
>>29053773Did we ever had the chance o look at the note she made?
>>29053925I'm grasping straws here. I know it's all kinds of unlikely but I'm going for anything, absolutely anything that'll see us out of that fight alive and relieved of one asshole that's all about killing everything what not down for his vision of how the world should look like. I don't really want to go down that route but given how stacked the odds are I just may be forced to go down that dark path. She might too. After all, he'd be all kinds of happy if she just so happened to make her exit in the near future.I've said it, I've said it a million times and I'm a keep saying it, we're fucked. Totally, completely, absolutely FUCKED!
>>29058846Your grasping at straws is annoying as fuck.It smacks of the most stupid plans that /tg/ comes up with, plans that depend on everyone being stupid and abandoning all of their previously demonstrated planning ability.
>>29058911Desperation has a habit of doing that to people. When under the gun people get dumb as the "flight or fight" response kinda shuts down the higher level processes of the brain. It's an evolutionary flaw but one we all have to deal with somehow.Nobody's perfect, there is no "ultimate" lifeform in the universe. Anyone can fuck up somehow, even the greatest of plotters and schemers. Don't count on it but be on the lookout, everyone in this story is desperate in one way or another. Everyone is so very close to their end goals and they all know that if something goes south they're boned in terms of getting what they want. We can fuck up, Tsu can fuck up, Deruella can fuck up, Orion can fuck, even Lex and Daiyu can fuck it all up. All because they made one boneheaded decision that in retrospect was so very dumb they're shocked they even went for that. All players in this clusterfuck are on thin ice and they know it. And even with that knowledge they can and likely will make some kind of mistake as, again, things like this bring out the stupid in people.
>>29059048Just like it's doing to you.You suffer from diarrhea of the mouth, and should learn to be more concise with your points. Also, this entire line of argument of yours, that Deruella may agree to an alliance, is predicated on her making a colossal mistake and a failure in judgement. The sheer stupidity of this idea makes it not worth considering. It's a terrible idea, it's been shown to be a terrible idea, and you need to drop it.
>>29059136No need to be uncivil here man, it's just a game in the end after all. You are correct that it is indeed a stupid idea, but it is still possible for her to make said colossal mistake if something goes wrong for her in a big way. I merely brought up a possibility, one that in all likelihood won't occur but if it did we'd need to weigh the pros and cons of it and make it work for us.Anything is possible man, there is almost nothing that ought be "beyond consideration" in the world. This ain't 40k, open minds are an asset in this reality.
>>29059243You admitted yourself that desperation was making you stupid. Also, just because something is possible, doesn't mean that it is even remotely probable. It's possible that a freak meteorite impact will kill Orion for us. Maybe God will come down and smite Orion. Just as likely as the shit that you try to push as an option.
>>29059448My you're quite the hostile anon aren't you? In the end this is nothing to get so worked up and hateful over. It's just a show dude, relax, you'll live longer. I wasn't saying I was stupid, just that anyone can get stupid when the pressure is on. And yes, people have to get pretty dumb in order for that particular plan to end well, but them getting stupid is much more likely than "divine retribution" or a freak meteor. Still quite unlikely, but nothing like the billion to one chances you're comparing it to. Apples ain't oranges.
>>29059525>I wasn't saying I was stupidOh, but it did come across as such. The desperate grasping at straws, the attempts to rationalize and support an idea that no one else supports because of its dependence on an enemy making an idiotic mistake, the failure to account for any of the setup to meeting with Deruella for a talk about an alliance; you've set up a line of dominoes where the slightest failure will cause the entire line to collapse.The entire idea should be shelved, and used as an example of retarded ideas we should immediately reject.
>>29059731Dear lord are you hateful. I'm just arguing and thinking through a possibility and here you are going full ad hominem at every turn. You can phrase things in much more civil terms man, no need to pour on the hate.The road to that route would be complex, but it still isn't impossible. I likely wouldn't even vote for it despite the fact I brought it up unless certain conditions were met. You act as though that's my actual ideal plan. It ain't, but sometimes you have to bite the bullet and go down the route you really didn't want to.It'd start, if at all, when/if Orion decided that Deruella was a bigger threat than Zipangu for the time being and focused his attentions on fucking her shit up. He likely won't, given how he always has the nuke to fix his problems, but any number of things could happen that may prevent its use or otherwise make it unwise and drive him to that conclusion.In the ultimate end we ought remember that our info is hilariously limited, we don't know jack shit about most everything going on. Thus almost anything must be considered as on the table.
>>29059862Then do that thinking where the rest of us don't have to be bothered by your insipid drivel. The other players have rejected the idea already. If you think it's something that needs to be considered, then consider it yourself and don't post about it unless it actually becomes relevant.
>>29059902Still no need to be so hateful about that sentiment. Just saying.
