The trip back is significantly less apprehensive.

Marching carelessly past the shattered remains of the dungeons defenders, the twisted and crushed traps- This is something to be proud of, isn't it? You can be proud of this.

You can look back, and know- You beat a dungeon. You kept everyone safe. Even if it was stupid. You won.

The thought lifts your spirits ever so slightly, and you find yourself humming as you walk, a breathless little tune that you step in time with, squaring your shoulders and smiling. You're loaded down with loot, you've got a giant spear that you are absolutely going to use.

Sara keeps running into you or Aria- She's pried open a book as she travels through the dungeon. Her pace slows, Aria runs into her, and she skitters forwards, and bumps into you. The clatter of chitinous legs on stone broken by half-mumbled apologies.

She tucks them away as you circle the fountain marking the entrance. The ramp winds slowly up, the hallway vanishing into the darkness. Your friends follow a step behind, hands against your shell to stay close.

You try to focus your attention on time. The time. How long you were underground, anyway. The fights seemed long, but they were probably short. The library took a little bit, especially once everyone got into portrait defacing. And then the last bit, and the trip down, and the second trap...

You shake your head. You really haven't got a clue. A couple hours, at least. Less than a day, definitely.

Runes glitter around you as the hallway straightens, the first hints of real light filtering through. Your pace jumps a little, and you speed towards the exit, party in tow. You take the steps eight at a time, because you're a giant spider.
>>

Your father sits, back against a tree, in much the same spot you left him in. A light floats over his shoulder, illuminating the book in his hands. Above you, the sun is setting slowly, the red glow fading into a purple. The moon is already visible above, and you've no doubt the stars will show their faces soon enough.

There's a circle of rope around Erics' seat, runes drawn roughly into the dirt around it. He glances up as you emerge, smiling lightly.
"Done already?"
You nod, letting a wry smile crawl across your face.
"Mmm. Barely a dungeon at all, yes. But we picked up a bit of treasure- And there's a few things below you should be looking at, I think."
He raises an interested eyebrow, glancing longingly at the staircase.
He sighs.

"Maybe tomorrow, then. For now, I think your mother will want to see you all safe."
That's not really the kind of thing you can argue.
The trip home is brisk, a rapid pace racing against the coming night. Dad is breathing hard by the time you stand beneath your tree's boughs. He might be good at running, but he certainly doesn't have the stamina of a monster.

Sheszka blurs up the ladder, while your father drags himself a rung at a time. Jin neatly skips off your back, standing before with a serious face, wings spread wide. You give her a smile, scooping her up and heading up the tree yourself. Your family is waiting above.

Tell them that it was wizard with an ego big enough to blanket the forest and he left some nice magical thingies for Sara and Dad to fiddle with.

We really should try to find Seranthis sometime after we evolve the second time, he'll be so impressed!

>>35708028
When we wake up in the morning, we will mutter to ourselves, completely deadpan and serious, "about time, thought the next evolution would never get here. Took FOREVER!"

We need to say this in hearing range of Mom. Just to see her reaction.
>>
>>35708118
She would beat the webbing out of us.

TOTALLY worth it.
>>
>>35707911
>Talk to Mom & Dad about the dungeon.
yes, let's bring the loot to the one mage who knows the "identify item" spell
who is also our dad
and we should tell him about the magic reactor too

Alright, Family time, then.

>>35708170
She'll want to test our strength regardless. All in favor of developing insomnia?

We need to fix that spear instead of sleeping
so wer better prepared

and deny every anon a new spider butt to admire? never
>>
>>35708265
I bet on none of the above, those 3 seem to be normal.
>>
>>35708265
None of the above. We become.. THE WOLF ORB SKULL SPIDER! THE SPEED OF THE WOLF THE BADASS METAL OF THE SKULL... WHATEVER THOSE ORB FAGS WANTED!
>>
>>35708376
Alright, betting time.
Put your money down, gentlemen. Which special evolution are we getting?
Ignore the spider type.

Will it be an antimage? Earth magic? Pack related? Giant monster killer? Guardian again?
Make your call. Put your 4chan cred on the line.
>>
>>35708443
I'd say anti-magic we seem to use that a lot.
>>
>>35708443
I'm betting the Cyclone Dwarf special evolution.
>>
Rolled 42 (1d100)

>>35708443
on anti mage tank
>>
>>35708443
Giant monster killer. That's 100% What we do. Close seconds are Antimage-Packrelated.
>>
>>35708443
I'm going to bet on us becoming an even bigger spider, also either guardian or some kind of leader type based evolution seeing how often we went pack hunting.
>>
>Spiderbutting

The greatest time of the day is here! At last!
>>
>>35708443
Leader, antimagic spider tank.

Our leadership is top and our skills are quite unique, would make a lovely queen.
[Moth prediction intensifies]
>>
>>35708539
Nun pls. I miss her.
>>
>>35708443
Betting anti-magic, maybe with a side of stone as the delivery method. We'll be a supertank.
>>
>>35708539
Fuck yes. Dat Moth.
>>
>>35708565

Then once we are Queen, she will be our prime advisor who is also a concubine.
>>
>>35708443
sara will walk on two legs
and for us, hmm
probably magebreaker, yeah
>>
>>35708577
She provides all the special dust for our husbando. Personally.
>>
>>35708443
I'm going to be on eventually being made out of stone and our footsteps "shaking the mountains....."
>>
>>35708590
If she loses her spider bits... I will cry.
>>
>>35708626
i don't think this will happen...
she'll probably keep the butt for balance, and the 2 extra pair of arms for moar spells
>>
>>35708603

She BECOMES our husbando through ovipositor shenanigans. This is the best option.

It's like a pressure buildup.

We need to let the Lewd out or we will explode from the amount of lewd generated by thoughts of Spiderbutting building up inside of us.

that just mean we need to train shezka to become a power bottom

You still have to get fucked by your husbando before you can lay any eggs. But let us stop talking about this because it has no relation to the quest.

Actually, historically, it's always the yurifags that mention things first.
And then they try to start arguments like you are trying to because yurifags just LOVE hijacking quests instead of doing the agreed-upon-EVERY-DAMN-THREAD "let's not talk about it any more to not cause shitstorms" rule.

Then the /u/ fags break it. Again and again.

A gesture sends everyone running to the food spread and waiting.

You watch for a moment as they start in on dinner.
You hope you don't sound like tht when you eat.

With siblings and pack distracted, it's a simple matter to grab your parents before they can join the circle. Grab your Dad, anyway. Mom is heading towards you with a knowing look, and you're fairly certain you aren't strong enough to grab her, anyway. Lift, maybe.

"So, little spider-" She's really emphasizing that 'little'. Is she- Is she trying to brag about being a few inches taller than you?
"-how was your first, yes?"

You roll your eyes.
"Unbelievably stupid."
Mom cackles, her mass of hair flipping forwards as she throws her head back.
"It was some pompous wizard's... I don't even know what to call it, yes? He built it so everyone would know how great he was! It's- There was a room, a whole room, of nothing but pictures of himself, and book after book of stories- about himself! It's just- Agh!"

Yeah, that didn't do anything to slow Mom's laughter. Erics gives his wife a look before chiming in himself.
"You said there was treasure, though. And other things?"
You wave a free hand.
"Enchanting. Books, staves, robes. Mage things. A necklace- Ah, I need you to check it. Later, yes? Jin wanted it. And there was a... It was the same kind of thing as my crystal, yes? To gather and refine magic, and use it. A pair of giant ones, for the whole dungeon."

He nods excitedly, one hand already stroking his chin as he considers the dungeon.
"-Maybe a replicated pattern? I think it'd be unstable- or you could... Yes, I'll have to-"
You interrupt, already far too late to stop him.
"There was one trap left, as well. At the end of the first hall, past the crystals, an earth trap on the floor. A big one."
>>
>>35709846
At this point most if them are not talking about actually having Lyra do any of these things beyond joking. Almost everyone is committed to the adventuring, regardless of what they feel is their preference romance wise.
>>
>>35709981
>Actually, historically, it's always the yurifags that mention things first.
Thats bullshit. I even paid attention to it several threads, and no, its hisotircally the husbando faction that starts shit, you can go look at the past few threads if you like and you will see it always starts with someone ranting about >muh wingman Jin or some shit like that.
>>
>>35710006
He gives you a solemn look, nodding again.
"I'll keep it in mind."
Your mother, on the other hand, has finally stopped laughing, but only to wipe the tears from her face. She points one hand to your cargo, the other scrubbing at her eyes.
"Heehahah...ha...I see you found something for yourself, yes?"

You hold up the oversized spear, bright metal glinting in the dusk's last light. You can't keep the smile from your face.
"I took it from some moving armour, yes. And I used it to beat the armour in."
She laughs with you, this time.

"It'll be a bit of work to make it usable, yes. Do you have anything planned, yet?"
"Maybe using the stone? I'm not sure. I don't know how to put them together."
The talk of construction and enchanting is enough to rouse your father.
"I can help with that much, at least. They're not that hard to use."

You nod your thanks, and discard your gear, a neat little- Well, a neat pile, swelling next to you. And then you head straight for the food. Before they eat all of it, hopefully.

You're immediately framed by Sheszka and Jin, falling in on either side of you as you settle. Aria has finished eating, and taken to sharpening her glaive. There's no doubt beating on golems and moving armour did a number on it.

Sara has already cracked a book, piling the extras around her. All six eyes flick side to side, rapidly fluttering down each page, absorbing as fast as she can.

You get started on dinner, eating your fill as the stack of food disappears before you. Your friends both snatch an extra piece as it dwindles, offering them towards you with hope in their eyes. Which is completely unnecessary, to be honest. You'd be more worried if you couldn't eat them.
>>
>>35709984
I want Jin and Lyra to develop a sister like bond and then through there adventures have Lyra meet someone like her mom did and then have Jin get all jealous because she feels like that person is stealing Lyra away from her because I thought it would be cute as hell with good chance to throw some humor in there as well.
>>
>>35709959
I am desperately afraid that we have scared REQM off with the fetish talk and the waifuing and the ever-present 'Muh sexual orientation' chatter.
>>
>>35710019
Those were almost every time in response to yurifags doing yuristuff.
There was a SINGLE TIME it wasn't and you freaked the fuck out about how straightfags start all the fights, because you are trying your very best to start arguments.
>>
>>35709981
>yurifags just LOVE hijacking quests
It might come as shock to you, but the reason yuri wins in a lot of quests, is because most people prefer girls around here, only few people here are yurifags.
>>
>>35710035

They watch happily as you scarf down their offered food and- Damn, you totally do sound like that. Crap.

You wipe your hands clean, using your buckler as an impromptu sink. Sheszka and Jin wait attentively, watching carefully as you dry your hands. You scratch each in turn, running fingers through hair and over ears and feathers alike. A bit of encouragement, a bit of praise. They both did good.

Your wolf is exceptionally proud, flexing, grinning widely.
"Did you see? I am strong, yes! Because you are strong!"
Jin nods sagely along next to her.

You laugh at them both, ruffling their hair a bit more before you tour the nest, checking in on your other adventurers.

Aria watches you approach, but her hands never stop moving, polishing each armour plate to a shine. She twists her head this way and that as you settle in front of her, her lips contorting her face as she struggles to say something.

"...Thank-you, yes? For bringing me."
You blink.
"I don't think it would have gone quite so well without you, yes?"
She lets out a puff of air.
"You knew where everything was. It would have been fine."
"Traps are one thing. Giant armour and golems are another. I can't fight everything by myself."

She scratches at her hair, blushing.
"You did good, yes? Thank you for coming."
You get a half nod as she hides her face beneath he bangs, and you continue on to Sara.

You wait your opportunity, standing just outside her vision till she's switching books. Then you strike.
"Sara."
She looks up, blinking to focus her eyes, and offers a drowsy looking smile.
You frown.
"Sara, are you tired?"
"Wha... No, no. I'll just- I'm gonna read these, first. Then I'll go to bed."
>>
>>35710051
Observe the quest in question.
They just can't stop mentioning it every single thread no matter how much we agree to not mention it any more.
>>
>>35710043

Nah man, REQM thrives in this.

Hell, I'm convinced he actually started it, after taking the trip off, of course.
>>
>>35710060

You glance at the stack of books beside her.
You look back.
She looks at you.
And then you start to manhandle your sister towards a pile of blankets.
"N-Noooooo- Lyraaaaa I hafta read them-"
"They will still be there in the morning. It is time for you to sleep, yes."
"Yoooou can't- You canmmm make me."

You tuck her in without comment. She struggles, too exhausted to even free herself from the blankets, and is snoring and drooling acros the floor in minutes.

You're not quite tired yourself, but you're definitely getting there.

Yeah, I think some troll has come in and started to demand lesbians, lesbians everywhere.

There's all sorts of non-shitstorm topics to talk about.

I don't think so. /u/boats are nothing new in /tg/ quests. I think non-lesbian quests with a female MC are a minority.

Also, anons always argue about waifus and husbandos. This is 4chan, anons with start a shit storm about anything.

This is nothing out of the ordinary.

In reality actual /u/boats are basically non-existent, most anons just happen to like cute girls.

I suspect I've been on /tg/ longer than you if you think this is bad.

This is one of the lesser waifu arguments I've seen. Get back to me when it's a full scale waifu shit storm.
>>
>>35710442
The problem is that the girls in question are established characters, and Lyra has a established relationship to them. While any hyptohetical husbando is a faceless nobody at this point and is only being brought up for the sake of not-yuri, not because of any actual character chemistry.
>>
>>35710442
Not guys. Just that little shit from the village.

Man, compared to waifu arguments I have personally seen, this doesn't even register.

I have seen this board burned to the ground from a resulting waifu shitstorm.

This is like, a summer rain compared, annoying, but somewhat nice because you expected it to be a lot worse.
>>
>>35710442
It's not that he's a guy. It's that he's a pathetic guy. People who want pairings with pathetic guys, so they can self insert into the little shits are worse than /u/ fags.
>>
>>35710491
Wheras any of the girls in question are only chosen specifically because we saw them first, not because we actually have any romantic spark with them.
>>
>>35710497
Considering we had talk of lewd headpats for the last, I think 5 threads or so, with drawfaggotry, there is nothing artifical about this coming stronger up now.
>>
>>35710472
Easy. Convince reqm that psion quest was super good, and watch as Jin decides, midway through a relationship, that she's straight now, and doesn't want to adventure anymore.

The constant agreements not to harp on about it, and the constant fetishposting the next thread, are specifically what makes me think it is artificial.
Normally, people have to wait until they're reminded of waifushit before the storms start.

No, they are chosen because we actually know them as characters.
Where the potential husbando doesn't exist, and people don't vote to pursue a specific character they happen to like and think would make a fine match with Lyra, they just want boys for the sake of not having yuri, which is a terrible reason. Shipping two characters isn't a bad thing, but the husbando thing is pretty much just anti-yuri because there is no male character around anyone could want to pursue that he would insist on straight Lyra.
Its a pretty huge difference if you want a certain type of romance because you like a character, or if you want it just to spite others with tastes you don't like.

Yeah, because they were first, and we need a lesbian love interest -now- before we have a chance to run into any males that are interesting.

You know, before we even develop a sex drive.

Because gotta have muh lesbians.

>The constant agreements not to harp on about it, and the constant fetishposting the next thread
You do realise thats different people, I hope?
We got vocal hetfags here all the time who talk about wanting a dating arc or some nonsense like that , or the wingman thing.
In difference to that any lewd concerning Jin or other girls is pretty much stuff that comes from the story because they are actually characters that exist and referncing things that happen.
>>
>>35710609

At that point, I would legitimately put forth a plan to mercy kill her.

Because that right is surely the result of something digging it's way into her mind and faffing about.
>>
>>35710593
>The only way you can not like what I like is if you are trying to spite me
Yurifags genuinely believe this. No, I just think it would be WAY more fun if us and the girls stayed friends, and tried to go out and get romantic partners together.
Go out clubbing and shit.
>>
>>35710530
Only after we give her a second chance after we find her fucking our bro

>>35710609
I'd.. I'd drop the quest. I'd cry. That's.... awful
>>
>>35710629
Actually, an archive search shows that the only people who have been doing vocal hetfagness were threads and threads ago.
Since then it's been polite reminders
"Hey yurifags, stop being so vocal, everyone else has agreed to be quiet".

I think you're probably the troll, as you keep harping on about things that happened one time threads and threads ago, and greatly exaggerate how often they happen.

>>
>>35710639
Except most of the time its not about wanting friendship with the girls, its explictliý about wanting a male love interest explicitly for the sole sake of not getting lesbians.
Thats pretty much the argument thats being made all the time here, "we want a husbando because we don't want yuri". If you don't want romance Jin and Sheszka, and I could see why you wouldn't want that, then I have to wonder why you constantly rave against "yurifags", since Lyra could very well find romance with a girl who isn't Jin or Sheszka, adressing your problem and still being yuri.
>>
>>35710734

Mothgirl best girl.

Wolfgirl and Birdbutt are best handmaidens.
>>
>>35710734
Actually it's usually about not wanting to ruin our friendship by turning it into shitty romance, and so offering a desperate alternative that doesn't involve fucking one of our friends.
The reason people think you are trolling is because you are constantly casting aspersions and trying to start fights like you are.
>>
>>35710734
But anon, I don't constantly rave against yurifags. Believe it or not, other people do it too sometimes.
>>
>>35710758
Moth girl is not a friend yet but shows great interest in us. So I think she may be in a position of handholding.
>>
>>35710758
>>35710758
I'm not interested in mothgirl.
I hate queenshit.
>>
>>35710764
I have no idea who you seem to think I am that you think Im trying to "start fights". I'm just pointing out how your argument doesn't make sense. You say now you only don't want romance with Jin and Sheszka, but on the other hand you awere only talking about not wanting yuri, but those are two seperate things, if you honestly would only not want to romance our childhood friend, then why are you ranting against yuri? Thats what I don_'t get, romancing Jin isn't synonymous with that. Its not like its only Jin or some random guy we don't know yet.There are other options than that.
>>
>>35710609
At such point in time we are dragging her with us, against her will, to go find a 2001: Space Odyssey Monolith to throw her in.
>"Lyra! It's full of stars!"

>>
>>35710843
>why only rant against yuri
I also rant against ovipositors and romance, anon.
It's just I have to argue against yurifags most, because they are CONSTANTLY bringing it up, and being as argumentative about it as possible when anyone has the gall to not share their opinion.
>>
>>35710843
>romancing Jin isn't synonymous with that.
Well technically that isn't true, we are friends and we are still kids, age wise at least
>>
>>35710813
Nin has interest in us because she likes trolling us about the Queen thing. But she's still a great deal of fun.
>>
>>35710865
So you told the >wingman Jin and >dating arc guys to shut up too? Yeah, didn't think so.
>>
>>35710843
Actually, yuri is pretty much synonymous with fucking our childhood friends. They're the only side that actually is arguing for fucking childhood friends repeatedly. It is exclusively a thing they claim.
>>
>>35710897
Well we have no male childhood friends. So that argument is a bit loose.
>>
>>35710886
I didn't tell anyone to stop it back then, as it was still new back then.
Now that you've brought it out dozens of times, I'm telling you to stop being a cunt about it.
Notice how you JUST called me a liar, though, and you'll see why people think you are casting aspersions and are trolling.
>>
>>35710897
But there are yuri options that don't involve Jin nor Sheszka. So its not the lesbianism you should complain about, its the usual waifufaggotry.
>>
>>35710933
Lesbianism is the current waifufaggotry to complain about, anon.
You don't see anyone going on about wingmen in this thread, do you?
Probably because the straightfags don't feel like talking about it and getting in on the shitstorm.
>>
>>35710930
>I didn't tell anyone to stop it back then
>Notice how you JUST called me a liar, though
I didn't call you a liar, I called you out on your self-contradiction, which you just admitted too. And the wingamn Jin thing is originally from the first visit to the village, and came still up by the last visit, so it was not a "new thing" anymore, by any measure.
>>
>>35710981
But numerous anons argued against both those things.
You are specifically calling me a liar by insinuating I wasn't one of them.
>>
>>35710981
>>35711000
And, now that I think about it, the only people who brought it up last visit were yurifags yelling at straightfags for daring to mention their own fetishes.
>>
>>35710981
>>35711000
These are the cancers that plague our quest.
>>
>>35710952
>You don't see anyone going on about wingmen in this thread, do you?

>>35710639
>>
>>35710952
I stopped talking about it because I don't see waifu and husbando being exclusive. REQM confirmed that monsters have romantic feelings well before becoming fertile.
>>
>>35711000
You admitted you weren't one of them,. so I'm not sure what you problem is.
>>
>>35711021
Okay. one single comment.
That's not really enough to even notice.
>>
random question here but how hard do you guys thing it would be to get what's left of the forest alince to form a new state? I mean just actually get the spider folk to trade silk with the town nearby and the moth folk to start trading powder? I really don't care one way or another about rebuilding the lost forest empire or becoming queen but I still would like to actually try and improve forest races and maybe even get recaniazed as an actual settlement instead of just a place where monsters roam. Don't know why but I feel like it would help out the forest folk and the town since all trading would be down through them anyways. Then we can try for queendom or adventuring or whatever we decide knowing we helped rebuild our home to it's former glory, even if only a little.
>>
>>35711019
Yep. So does anyone know if you can get multiple blessings? It doesn't seem out of the question and a lot of people seem to think so, but I don;t know for certain.
>>
>>35711026
Time exists, anon.
Originally not one of them, slowly become one of them as I become sick of your waifushit.
My problem is that you are basically arguing for no reason.
>>
>>35711052
Would it be necessary? Moths have a hidden village, harpies co-exist with humans, lizards are assholes (though I kinda want to see Lyra actually meet one without killing them), and the arachne seem to prefer living apart from each other.
>>
>>35711052
I think an important thing for us to do is start regular dust and silk shipments to the nearby village.
We need to find goods the moths need from the humans, and start making the trips ourselves.
Eventually, we hopefully convince others to do it.

FUCK QUEENDOM

>>
>>35711055
I think you just lost it. We were talking about you not having been one of the people who equally argued against all romance bullshit, and you admitted as much. That was the point.

>>35711052
The main problem is that we don't know ho wmany of them went feral like the Lizardmen. Or might have left the forest completly.
The only way to do it would be finding some way of generating a large stable food source, like farms, to counter the overpopulation problem.
>>
>Arguing about arguing
Can't we go back to talking about carrying our house on our back or something else constructive?

>capcha: Shedtee conduct
No capcha, we shall not talk about Lyra or anyone else taking off their tee shirt, it will only lead to arguing about a wet shirt contest and Sheszka smelling like a wet dog.
>>
>>35711075
mostly want to do it sorta as spite to the empire that ruined the forest in the first place.

Sure they may have brought us down but we managed to rebuild while they became nothing more then a bad memory.
>>
>>35711085
Dammit Nin.

>>35711092
I suppose, but it was already an ordeal having the kingdom (queendom, whatever) before, since the packs had to basically be brought into submission and the lizards very quickly bailed. There's also not a need to have a permanent protective agreement, since there's no threatening forces and any threats are usually marginalized very quickly (as seen with the Necromancer).
>>
>>35711104
>intentionally misreading
You know as well as I that I admited numerous times to arguing against yurifags more, because they KEEP ARGUING FOREVER, but I do argue against romance bullshit in general now, too.
Now, though, I think I will cast my own aspersions, since you've been doing so many.
Why the fuck do you instantly question the character and motives of people who like things you don't like? Why is your first response to "I don't like lesbians, let's not do it" something along the lines of "You don't like lesbians JUST TO SPITE MEEEE"?
>>

>>
>>35711104
>The main problem is that we don't know ho wmany of them went feral like the Lizardmen
figured we'd start small, try to rebuild with the 3 races that stayed after the forest's fall, then branch out and see if we can't get other sane races to join. Like the wolf tribes, they're sane but just tribal and territorial as hell.
>>
>>35711135
It's a dangerous assumption to assume nobody else will ever get a huge military together just because we don't need to do it right at this moment.
>>
>>35711151
But I never said any such a thing. I pointed out how the argument for husbandos is always "because we don't want yuri", which is true, as you can see for yourself. Surely there are people who want it without being against the other, but I have no issue with them so there is no reason for me to talk about them.
>>
>>35711185
>ignoring people who want husbandos because it would produce more entertaining scenarios
Yep, intentionally misreading again.
Why the fuck are you outright ignoring anything and everything that doesn't fit into your nice little worldview of "anyone who doesn't like what I want is DOING IT OUT OF SPITE"?
>>
You pick yourself up, slipping quiety away from your sister. Even in the twilight of the woods, without magical darkness you can see clear as day.

Rifling through your bags of loot, you find what you're looking for- The twisted silver amulet. Mom and Dad are off by themselves. They don't look like they're planning on leaving the nest tonight, just sleeping outside the dogpile of children.

You skitter up, necklace in hand, and they turn to face you. Dangling it ahead of yourself, you wave it towards your father and speak.
"This is the one, yes. I'd like to give it to her in the morning."

He holds a hand out, and you drop it gently into his palm, the delicate chain rattling together as it slides through his fingers.

He brings the amulet to his face, fingers tracing the patterns, running over the runes. You feel a twinge of mana as he pushes a bit towards the gemstone, watching it flicker to life, runes lighting up with magic.

He looks back to you.
"Hm. It's actually storage- Uh, like a pocket or a backpack. Just- Elsewhere."
"It lets you keep things nowhere?"
"No, Elsewhere. It's a bit of space between."

You consider it for a moment.
"Alright. Can Jin use it? Or can you make more? That seems... very useful. My ability to transport tons of stuff does not necessitate enjoyment, yes."
"It's tied to your dead wizard, actually. I can probably change the runes. Making them is a bit beyond me at the moment, though. My enchanting just isn't up to snuff. A bit of practice, maybe."

You stifle a yawn.
"I'll- I'll just leave it with you, yes. Good night."
"Good night, Lyra." "Good night, Dearheart."

You make your way back across the nest, and drop yourself next to your sleeping pack, tucking each beneath an arm. Resting your head in your arms, you let your eyes fall closed, and drift off to sleep....

Damn you musclegirl anons.
It is my preference we are not musclegirls for reasons of comedy, aesthetics, and minmaxingif our upper body strength was primarily from the spiderbutt doing hydraulic work, we would effectively be able to wield a much larger force than we would if it was fueled by human musclesthis is the best explanation for our human part's strength bar WIZARDS DID IT

Magical Spider Asura Cheesecake With smallish breasts, because muscles

That is all I will say on this matter.
>>
>>35711783
Okay, fine, we'll hear you out: how exactly does spider hydraulics work?
>>
>>35711783
All other parts aside, I'm fairly sure wizards actually did do it. Hydraulic muscles wouldn't really work for operating human limbs.

I just want Lyra to have a nice toned stomach and well defined arms, not SWOLE or anything.
>>
>>35711831
B-but I don't want that many arms!
>>
>>35711801
THE WARMESTT OF HUGS!
>>
>>35711845

Additional arms are optional, only there when you need extra punching / stabbing.
>>
>>35711845
Imagine anon, we could pet Jin and Sheszka, and hug Sara.
AT THE SAME TIME!
>>
>>35711833
Well, it's pretty simple.
Spiders don't keep any muscles in their limbs, and instead move them entirely through huge-ass hydraulic pumps stored in their main torso.
If applied to our design, it means we'd get a musclebase larger than a whole human to operate our shit.
>>
>>35711867
I don't see how that works with a humanoid torso, though.
>>
>>35711864
WE CAN HEADPAT WHILE WIELDING OUR SPEAR NOW!
>>
>>35711885
Muscles work on a simple pulling-based system.
If our muscles were instead, say, hydraulic springs able to extend or retract, the musculature system would pretty much be exactly the same but with much greater strength.

A bit more tubing, though, probably.
>>
>>35711894

>We can DOUBLEHEADPAT while wielding BOTH our Halberd and Spear!

FTFY.
>>
>>35711867
Its a bit tricky, I suspect we actually have both. Our human half could not be operated with hydraulic muscles, especially the arms and neck, on the other hand, we are awfully strong, and our spider half couldn't really work with human muscles.
So we probably have some weird mixture of both. Either somehwo connecting around the torso, or something that is actually neither.
>>
>>35711598
But it would look so cool
>>
>>35711864
I'm not imagining that.
I'm imagining what it would look like.
Multiple arms just don't WORK on anatomy.
>>
>>35711920
I'm just saying man, if our human half was connected to our spider musculature system, we'd get a much greater amount of usable force.
>>
>>35711910
I'm still not sure it would work, just with the added complexity of the human torso. At most, I think >>35711920 would be right in that maybe the back area around the spine would have hydraulic muscles.
>>
>>35711934
Neither.. would a half spider with the upper body of a woman. But you're fine with that?
>>
>>35711995
No, like, putting a woman on a spider looks allright.
Putting extra arms on a human shoulder doesn't... WORK. It doesn't look like anything good!

The only way it worked in asura's wrath was because they were using perspective tricks, shit wasn't actually connected right.
>>
>>35711982
We already have the great amount of usable force, regardless of how it is explained..
>>
>>35712016
yeah. My internal explanation was that we are hooked up to the spider hydraulics.

It was what I came up with to explain it.
>>
>>35711335
>Y
>>
>>35712026
Its not a bad idea, for a explanation. But normally hydraulic muscles wouldn't let us use our limbs the way we do, our finger wouldn't have nearly as much dexterity, and our arms would be hindered in movement, not to mention our neck.
I definitly think our spider half uses those, maybe we get additional pull from that portion over the back musculature.
>>
>>35712073
Now that part just depends on how well integrated the hydraulics are.
And how the systems are linked.
>>
>>35711988
Would explain how we can bend our back so much that we can lie back on our own spider portion. Something weird is going on where our two halves meet.
>>
I'm against hydraulic muscles because it would mean we couldn't get stronger by working out anymore.
Terrible.
>>
>>35712128
Actually, we WOULD get stronger by working out.
It's just we keep our muscles in our butt, not on our abs.
>>
>>35712128
I didn't even remember that, we did talk about having muscle burn after our first trainig sessions.
>>
>>35712128
I'm just settling on, "Giant Spiders how do they work?!", as how they work.
>>
>>35712140
>no abs
Please don't say such things.

But thats my fetish anon!
>>
>>35712090
I would think that if all of our body were hydraulic then the body would be less human like and more skeletal. Why bother having all of that wasteful body mass?
>>
>>35712178
there may or may not be ab-equivalent hydraulic tubes that swell and shrink as needed.

>>35712221
Well, if >>35712143 is correct, then we have human like muscles anyways. So... yeah.
>>
The ideal minmaxing solution is we have some human-like muscles, but they are augmented by a hydraulic system providing additional force.

So, we are now a reborn giant red spider, that loves fighting huge monster for the thrill of the fight and wants nothing more than becoming stronger and stronger.

You wake drowsily, early dawn dripping through the trees. You yawn, stretching forward for that oh-so-satisfying crack as you work the kinks out of your spine. It was a good day. A good rest. There was the dungeon, and everyone celebrating, and then you had a fantastic sleep, and the voice-

The voice.

You twist around so fast you nearly give yourself whiplash, throwing the blanket clear and staring at your spider half. A skull covers most of your abdomen, though you can't imagine where- or even what it came from. Your chitin is still it's deep and beautiful red, but...

Crawling up from your even more wickedly pointed legs, a pattern like cracked stone fades as it gets further up. And as you stare, it shifts, the dark pattern growing lighter, from a near black brown, to a glowing red, a burning yellow. The colours swell and fade of their own accord, in time with... something. You can feel it, but you can't quite put your finger on it.

You tilt your head, trying to look around the skull, and the weight distracts you, sending one hand reaching to your scalp. You run your fingers through your hair, pulling it straight, and finally flicking it free, nearly the length of your arm. You turn and lean back, propping yourself against the skull, an excited, fang filled grin spreading across your face.

You're pretty sure you're bigger. Take that Mom.

Between the smile and keeping yourself from laughing maniacally, you're clenching your jaw so hard that you're afraid it might break. Little bits are starting to escape you as you fold your hands across your chest, trying your best not to wake anyone.
"...heheheheheHeeeee-"

You distract yourself with a soft sort of feeling from your arm- and discover that each of your chitinous 'gloves' is now topped with a short trim of feather soft red fur. Ooh, and your pattern runs up your hands as well, fading before it reaches your elbow.

This has to be the first time you've missed mirrors since you woke up as a spider.
>>
>>35712297

I dunno man, Riding a Main Battle Tank against a Technoshaman riding a technabomination on the edge of black hole is pretty god damn metal.
>>
>>35712324

Well, at the very least, people are starting to wake up. Which meeeeeans....

Your grin spreads a little wider.
You're vaguely concerned that your face might break.

Sara is first. She crawls out of bed, shimmying across the floor of the nest as quiet as she can be. Sharklike, she heads straight for the pile fo books. She doesn't even look up. Damn it, Sara.

Aria picks herself up next, stretching out each limb as she picks her way free of Elle. She cracks her neck back and forth, picking up her glaive and heading for the arena- before she stops halfway up the tree, blinking wildly and looking back at you.

You smile.

"Lyra! You- wait, You-"

Her sudden shout is exactly what you want.

Your family comes alive around you, some slower, some faster. Sara peeks over her shoulder , momentarily distracted from her book. Her eyes widen , all six spreading till there's next to no space between them.

Mom is next. It's everything you thought it would be. It takes everything you have to keep the smugness off your face.
"Wha- Lyra, you just- How in the bloody godsdamned- You're a month old, this isn't even fair-"
Your Dad just stares as the everyone else picks themselves up, and you can't contain it anymore.

You start laughing, all the way from your stomach, huffing and wheezing, bent double as you cackle, tears running freely from your eyes, matting your hair, turning your vision into a mess of colours and blobs.

This is good. Perfect.

>Test your new strength with Mom. After breakfast and everything.
>There was other things, right? That the voice said. Try and see what you can do!

>>35712396
That would pretty much boil down to "it was magic" again, since it wouldn't actually work like that. Our muscles would constantly rip from the force of our hydrualic portions, so they already have to be supernaturally strong.

to Aria "probabile not best if you want to become like mom."

>>35712452
I would say that would hinder the force transmission if the muscles stretch instead of getting pulled harder. On the other hand, we are a Giant Spider, so I guess physics and biology can go sit in the corner and shut up.
>>
are we going to have to get our armor refitted since we're bigger or is our human half still around the same size?

So long as it has an obsidian sheen to it I'm good with that.

It would hinder it a bit, but not much.
Weak, stretchy human muscles for the purposes of fine manipulation and strong hydraulics for maximum punch might be how things work.

No. I have no problem with anything else, but no. No scumbag companions.
>>
>>35713062
Dammit, I was against it but apparantly if we're going to be carting around all of these critters on our butt I guess we really do gotta get bigger.

I still think house sized is absurd, though. I don't want any bigger than a big horse.
>>
>>35713082
Anon, you need at least one kind of a scumbag companion.
It's the law.
>>
>>35713052

If he was a scumbag, we would have killed and eaten him by that point.
>>
>>35713069

>>35713098
No. No you don't.

>>35713082
I can see a kind of jerkthat's still tolerable through an entertaining personality that grows into a good character, but not a scumbag. Lyra does not abide by that nonsense, just gives them a STERN GLARE

.>>35713098
We really don't. We've killed lizards for less.
>>
>>35713107
nah, we only do that to the real big scumbags. Slave traders and the like.
>>35713115
Yes you do. Dickass thief fo lyfe
>>
>>35713130
I think we're using different definitions of a scumbag.
Becase a tolerable jerkhat IS a little bit of a scumbag, and is something of what I was describing.

Given that we likely got a huge buff to Earth magic and neither we nor Mom have a full picture of our new abilities, who's up for opening up a large enough tunnel for us and Mom to go searching for Seranthis? Mom wanted to meet Seranthis anyways, not even cave ins should stop us now, we even have a tracking hound to help us search and it should be a fun adventure.
And we could show off to Seranthis as well, of course.
>>
>>35713158
I say we do some practice tunnels.
Because, you know, structural collapse. And mining bracing techniques.
>>
>>35713158
I don't think we have neough understanding of static to dig such a huge tunnel without risking to destroy parts of the ruins.
>>
>>35713134

Seconding. Opening up the entrance a bit so we can fit should be easy enough.

However, I also second getting some practice before we try anything underground.

And don't forget to close the entrance behind us. Don't want to unleash underground horrors on the forest.

Mom is circling you like a predator, growling and muttering while Dad tries to console her.
"Mgrgrggngmrngrm. I just- This- How, Lyra!?"
You know you shouldn't. You really shouldn't. But it's too late. You can't stop anymore.

You shrug, palms up.
"An overdose, yes? Too many bears."

Your facade cracks as she closes on you, and you burst out laughing- which turns immediately into a gurgling chuckle as she puts you in a headlock. Doesn't stop you for so much as a second though.

A few minutes later, You're standing at ease in the nest- Dad is working with the necklace, Sara is poring over books, Mom has left to hunt something to take the edge off. Elle took a few measurements, and promised a new set of clothes shortly, your brothers are long gone already, and Aria has apparently doubled her training regime, if your ears are any indicator.

And Jin and Sheszka are working their way around you, examining your new form.

Jin flaps and hops between bits of the skull, working out the best possible perch. Sheszka has taken to poking you all over. She works her way to your front, Grabbing your arms, your waist. She nods to herself, and pushes her head up against your stomach, holding there, arms wrapped around you.
"Shesz-?"
"You're warm. It's nice. Yes."

You feel Jin hop forward behind you, pressing herself up to your back, wings folding around to meet the wolf.
"Is she really?"
"Yes."
Her wings tighten- you can feel her hugging- but it doesn't seem- Just how strong are you now?
"You are. Lyra, you're warm."
>>
>>35713273
You say nah, and yet there always is one.
>>
>>35713280
You scratch, pat and rub yourself free, grinning down at them both. You're definitely taller. Not much, but it's there.

Your friends follow you down to the forest floor- and by follow, you mean you carry Jin. Webs and wings don't mix.

Once you reach the ground, you feel it- The slow swell beneath your feet, the grinding, shifting power deep underground. Your patters shifts, glows in time with it. That's... Wow. A bit disorienting, and a lot- Just a lot of Wow.

You shake your head to clear the feeling of standing on a molten sea, and pull the spear off your back. Step one is resizing it. You've got a few options.

You can feel the spear in your hands.

Not just the sensation of it. The truth of it. What it's made of. What it is.
It trembles in your grasp.

Sheszka takes a step back, and Jin squawks behind you. The pattern across your hands glows yellow-white. You can feel the heat on your face, but it doesn't bother you.

The metal shimmers between your fingers- molten, but unmoving. It follows your hands, your thoughts, and you reshape the weapon, rearranging it to your height, your size. As it begins to cool, a simple gesture of your fingers opens a hole in the centre of the guard. The perfect size for your stone.

The weapon cools in your hands. You tap it against the ground beneath you, and you feel it answer, in your bones, your blood. You smile.

Sheszka is watching you with wide eyes, mouth agape. Jin steps carefully from the skull to your shoulders, and delicately pokes at the spear with one cautious talon. It clinks lightly against her claw, the sharp sound of pure metal.

You could get used to this.

hey what are our chances at becoming the demigod of the forge or something like that?

Also what's mom's thoughts about us right now, and dad?
>>
>>35713686
Why do we even still use weak wood for our glaive?
We might as well make one of pure steel now, wrap leather around two sections for grip. We should make maximum use of our strength.

Achievements?
>>
>>35713686

Pay attention, anon.
>>
>>35713686
oh wow that was a short one.
>>
>>35713798
For our spear then.
I assumed if we make a new weapon, it would better be a glaive again.
>>
>>35713769
I think the whole thing is already made out of metal. It doesn't specifically say it, but since we could reforge the whole spear, its strongly implied.
>>
>>35713686
damn.
so, about these achievements...

>Spiderbutting ends just as Khornettebutting begins

we should probably stop hunting for a wile to train our new powers and apologies to mom and dad for growing up so fast.

Achievements!

Wolf spider was fulfilled- You just filled the Grave spider requirement more.
Grave Spider required Giantslayer.
The other two were for Forgesworn.
Wolf achievement was FEROCIOUS HUNTER: 5/5
For taking down serious game.

Orb Achievement was PATIENT SPINNER: 0/3
An orb subtype was ACTIVE TRAPPER: 3/3

Other specialty achievements!
STRIKE THE EARTH: 1/3
For using earth magic offensively. The only thing I could count was the trap.

BLOOD OF THE EARTH: 0/1
For using magma offensively (a high rolled earth spell)

Other potential evolutions included A half lord.
STEEL GAZE, STEEL ARMS: 5/5
Arms referring to weapons, of course.
>>
>>35713686
Holy shit, we're awesome! Mom's going to go beyond jelly.
>>
>>35713892

>BLOOD OF THE EARTH: 0/1

>>
>>35713892
Does this mean we're technically half-lord?
>>
>>35713892
so quick question, what does each class do? I don't think you really ever came out and said what the strengths and weaknesses of each class did really?

Also if we got the other specialty achievements what would our other subclasses have been?

But noooooow......

Dad's confused as to why you're growing so fast, but excited to find out why. And what you can do. He loves research.

>>35713769
The wood wasn't weak at all! It was about as strong as iron, at least, and better able to bend without breaking. And now you have a solid metal spear!

>>35713771

>>35713935
You could have been a straight up Magma Grave Spider, calling molten rock to your will.
Trying to work the spear like that would have ended with a puddle of liquid metal, though.

>>35713953
Nah, you only get one evolution at a time.

Lords specialize in weapons, and whatever element they acquire (if they do)

Wolf Spiders are faster, stronger, and can jump like madmen.

Orb spiders have stronger webbing, way higher webbing production and a standard stat increase.

Makes sense that in a tie we get the one we have the most requiremtns for first. I think we would have to blame that on the upgrade system put into place by the base material, you can only get one "message" at a time.
>>
>>35714052
>stronger
Oh? Whats Grave Spider specialty then?
>>
I honestly prefer this over straight up MAGMASPIDER.

Why? Because:

Molten.

Metal.

Whips.

Get a big-ass slab of iron, or steel, or hell, brass, when in combat grab it, mold that fucker into a long liquid haft, and make it BEND while remaining in shape.

Mages? Molten Metal to the face.
Fully plated up soldiers? Make it drip, molten metal inside the armor, on top of the armor, and in their eyes.
Rogues? Bitch, you tried to take my gold, it's suddenly molten slag and stabbing into your heart before reforming into proper coin shape.

Fuck straight up magma, metal is KING.
>>
>>35714108

To borrow another anon's comparison.

Wolf is Mechcyborg ninja.

Grave is NANOMACHINES SON.
>>
>>35714111

So.

All of our loot, is now a weapon? All of our coins, are holdout weapons?

I don't know how to feel about this.

>Nah, you only get one evolution at a time.
Do we keep the unlocks between levelups?
that is, since we fulfilled half lord (but not as well as grave), would we be eligible for it again next time we evolve, if we don't re-unlock it?

>>35714108
Grave spider is a marked increase in toughness and strength, more so that the wolf spider. You also have a nearly indestructible skull over your rear.

>>35714041
Grave was fulfilled more- I honestly didn't expect people to spend so much time hunting giant monsters.
Which sounds idiotic on my part in retrospect.


Sorry about the slow answers, trying to eat

>half Lord is still available for future evolutions
what about wolf and orb?
>>
>>35714406
After hearing that, I am even more pleased we got the grave evolution, it fits our tank spider motif. Soon we will become the nigh indestructible forge-born half lord gravespider. Mom and Aria will be jelly beyond description.

half lord unlocks full lord, which makes you the most awesomest bestest weapon fighter.
Also, the horns look fucking badass.
Also, it is not mutually exclusive with other evolutions.
