You are Melissa Madison, a somewhat geeky and tomboyish high school junior that takes Karate classes to avoid being a fatass. Superheros and Villains have always been interesting to you. Close at hand, as well, considering you live in Chester. Your single father is an entomologist studying insect genetics at his lab in New York. On one fateful Bring Your Daughter to Work Day your curious nature resulted in a heavy dosage of insect DNA with a side dish of microwave radiation and physcial trauma. Hospitalized as result of this, you were cleared in a matter of days and went back to your ordinary life.

However, as cheesy fate would have it, your accident has granted you superpowers. Enhanced Strength, Enhanced Speed, Enhanced Durability, Enhanced Reflexes, and a nifty pair of antenna. From around a week of testing you can guesstimate that your abilities have been multiplied ten fold overall and seem to have a mental "switch" that turn them on and off. At least you don't have to wear a hat for the rest of your life.

It's currently the second week of summer break, giving you plenty of time to explore and utilize your newfound power.

SELECT A BASE INSECT:

>Common Ant: Strength Enhanced 20x, not 10.

>Common Beetle: Durability Enhanced 20x, not 10.

>Click Beetle: Enhanced Jumping, 20x your height. Boosted leg strength.

>Common House Fly: Your super form gains wings and the ability to fly as a fly does. Wings are relatively fragile, but do heal.

>Common House Spider: Wallcrawling. Reflexes Enhanced 15x, not 10.

>Honey Bee: You develop stingers that erupt from your wrists. Nonlethally poisonous to humans. Can choose to use poison or not. You can quickly grow back stingers that are ripped out.

>Stink Bug: You develop glands that allow you to secrete or spray a repulsive chemical mist up to 15 feet away. You are immune to your own "stink".

Using your abilities burns calories and nutrients. Growing additional parts, generating chemicals, and replacing parts does as well.

WHAT DO YOU DO?:

>Reveal your powers to your father. He can help you understand them.

>Reveal your powers to your best friend. He'll be so jealous!

>Keep your powers a secret from your loved ones and get help elsewhere.

>Don't get help and try your hand at superheroism.

>Don't get help and use your powers for personal gain.

>Other?

(Consensus seems to be Common Beetle and ignoring your powers.)

Coming to the conclusion that government probing might be the end result of telling anyone and that super-activity isn't as sweet as the comics would lead you to be, you decide to ignore your powers and live on normally.

A few days pass by uneventfully. On Tuesday, your father tells you to get off your lazy ass and get some errands done.

>Pretend to check out local colleges for possible enrollment when you graduate.

Consensus is bank with part-time job as a close second.

You decide to take the quickest option, taking some checks to the bank for your father. Maybe you could get a part-time job there as well after they're impressed with your... check delivering skills.

A quick bus ride is all it takes to skitter to the bank. It's moderately busy, so you wait in line like a sane human being. After twenty minutes or so, your boring wait is interrupted by a sudden gunshot.

"THIS IS A ROBBERY! GET ON THE GROUND NOW AND NOBODY GETS HURT."

Seriously? He's even wearing a ski mask.

Everyone around you cowers as the crook makes his way to the counter.

WHAT DO YOU DO?

>GTFO. What do you care?

>Try to stop him with your powers.

>Take advantage of the confusion and nab some cash for yourself.

>Other?

>>36785292
>GTFO
>>
>>36785292
>GTFO
This ain't the time for no super heroics and we certainly don't want people seeing us plain face if it is. I say we let the cops do what they get paid to and keep our head down. (Plus I think if we re going to go dark side shitty ski mask robbers are the lowest of the barrel we should wait for a real villain to rear his/her head.)
>>
>>36785292
>GTFO. What do you care?

true neutral for life
>>
>>36785292
>GTFO

Again, realizing that sudden heroics or villainy would be rather foolish, you decide to escape.

The robber doesn't seem overly concerned with people running away, content with a single teller hostage. This in mind you manage to stroll out unharmed and make your way a few blocks down.

The checks can be deposited later. Now you can focus on getting a job, considering your previous idea was held up.

WHERE SHOULD YOU TRY GETTING A JOB?

Conveniently there are at least two convenience stores located halfway between the bank and you house.

This is actually great news because now you don't have to get on the bus from hell again.

You head a few streets over to the towns business district and find yourself looking as two fine establishments.

One looks like a suped up 7/11, the store front so clean it practically shining.

The other, well you guess this is what you'd call normal? Yep, normal. Totally, absolutely, positively normal. It also might be on fire, but whatever.

WHICH SHOULD YOU GO INTO?

Since the vote for powers was so close can we just add the spider and bee powers to the beetle one.
>>
>>36788073
Or Parasite powers.... That'd be cool.
>>
>>36788084
I really just want our hero name to be honey-bee.
>>
>>36788073
>>36788084
Guys, chill. We can get more powers later on. Or augment it with gear when we meet our tech savvy best friend or gain more mutations. For now lets just enjoy the slice of life.

>>36788133
But.. we'll never be adorable and make adorable Buzzing puns and honey. Everything is ruined forever.

It's not a big deal

Let's get ready to Buuummbllle!
>>
>>36788165
I actually kind of want to switch to bee or butterfly, but I'm okay with beetle I guess, there aren't that many good puns for it though.

If new OP's cool with it, I'd rather like a power swap vote before we get to the action, even a short one.
Otherwise I'm fine with jsust staying as we are.

I understand the pain guys. I wanted grasshopper but it wasn't an option.
For now we are a common beetle but that can change. There are many species of beetle and I'm sure as we progress we will get cooler powers and such.
Beetleborgs was a good show right guys? T_T
>>
>>36788197
Well it's not like our choice of powers has had an effect so far.
>>
>>36788233
Bombardier beetle for one, Hercules beetle for another. Rhinoceros beetle for a third

It just doesn't seem to fit for a girl though...
>>
>>36788254
>>36788233
>>36788246
Well it says Bug girl. So I'd assume we can move into all of them eventually or hot swap the powers. Not just be stuck.
>>
>>36788246
That's why I'd rather we swap now before it actually matters if we switch at all.
I know we're taking this rather like a slice of life quest, but our powers will probably become important later.

Its more the fighting style and weapon they use. Also each assassin seems to be bio augmented somehow. Kabuto has enhanced musculature and a metalicized endoskeleton as well as female "Kabuto beetle spikes" in her arm. (Apparently female kabuto beetles have barbs for digging).

Arachnid has spidey sense, cockroach can do that slime thing cockroaches do and fight while K.O.ed (cause cockroaches can live without their heads.) Etc. Etc.

Good job Mel, crisis adverted.

You casually walk up to the store counter. It's as predictably spotless as the rest of the store but has the nice addition of almost blinding you with the glare coming off of the metal checkout scanner.

"Hello-" You voice goes out behind the counter. Maybe they're in the back room?

Suddenly, you voice gets an answer.

"Welcome valued customer, we at Bloom-Mart appreciate you patronage. Simply place your desired items on the counter and our system will conduct an automatic checkout."

The voice is coming from a panel on the far corner of the counter top with subtitles for the little introduction you just heard running across it. Well, wonder how you missed that?

"If you need any other service or wish to provide feedback, please make an auditory request and our customer service will see to you right away."

Oh...okay.

"Very well, please place your hand on the counter's scanner and state your full then preferred name."

A short step to the counter and a quick
"Melissa Madison and, uh... Melissa Madison"

"Very well, Melissa Madison. Please hold still"

You are of course, also allowed to defer any decision until a later date. However, some or all positions may be filled between now and then. Position explanations are available on request."

So I just pick? alright.

Hey it works when you call it "sand from inside the pyramid" and sell it to the tourists that flock to the big pile of neatly stacked rocks.

Heh you see the thing we will be cleaning isn't the building its the bodies of the people from rival stores off the floor when the Counter-loss folks are finished with them. We assassins now.

We're cleaners. Not the assassins.

Yes.

You remove your hand from the panel and press the words "Custodial services associate" on the screen.

"Congratulations Melissa Madison, your application has been accepted. Your application will be reviewed by management and you will be notified of the final decision as soon as possible"

Well that's nice. "So should I give you my pho-"

"Congratulations Melissa Madison, your application has been evaluated. Would you like to accept a position as a Bloom-Mart Custodial Services Associate?"

That was really fast, do they just not have enough people?
"Yes, I guess? I mean that's why I-"

"Congratulations Melissa Madison, on joining the Bloom-Mart team. Please step behind the counter to receive your uniform and position related equipment from the designated pad."

Only slightly irritated that you keep getting cut off by a fancy self-checkout screen you slide your way around the counter looking around for whatever a "designated pad" is. Ends up it's a neon orange box with a arrow pointing to it.

Opening the box you fine a thin apron with the words 'Bloom-mart' printed down the side and a bright blue flower in the middle. Attached to is is a me tag that says 'Hi, My name is Melissa Madison'

Wrapping the apron around you waist and over you shoulder you call out. "I've got the uniform, but wasn't there supposed to be something else?"

"Why yes, please turn around."

When you spin on your heel and look behind you was sitting these is a hand-held vacuum cleaner. Or at least what a hand-held vacuum cleaner would look like if it was four feet long, covered in shiny white casing and bathed in green light.

"This is the Bloom-Mart 'KEL-3 Custodial Assistance Unit' and will be your service partner during your employment. Please treat it with care, Melissa Madison"

Uh...

>No really, what is this thing? [Turn it on]

Sorry for taking so long. I really wasn't prepared to run a quest today. Next update will be the last.

To be honest you guys have been dodging superpowers and plots pretty hard-core.

I was planning on you controlling all the crime syndicates in North America by this post.
No seriously, I was.

>To be honest you guys have been dodging superpowers and plots pretty hard-core.
I think part of it is how you are slicing your updates.
You've been ending some of your updates in places that don't present as wide variety of options as they could.
>>
>>36791268
Silly OP, this isn't a superhero/villain quest. This is convenience store quest where the MC just happens to have SUPER POWERS!
>>
>>36791346
Quick! Someone post the Gas station RPG /tg/ Made!
>>
>>36791346
OP doesn't realize he just set himself up for the next homeless mutant quest in terms of length. Except this time it is Conveinence store superheroine quest.
>>
>What's my pay and how do I get it?

>>36791326

Yeah, I know. It's totally on me.
I'll have better stuff next thread.

>>36791357
Is this what you are talking about? http://1d4chan.org/wiki/Night_Shift

>>36791473
Exactly. Tried to run this with my players but.. two of them worked at gas stations and said it was too accurate and wouldn't play.
>>
>>36784473

Someone upload mosquito girl from OPM. I would, but I'm on the phone.
>>
>>36791517
well, it seems kind of interesting
>>
Shouldering the KE3- No wait, it's the KDP- Ugh, that's not right either!
Shouldering the SHINY GUN you raise your head up to the part of the ceiling the voice seems to be coming from and ask. "So what's my starting pay?"

"Oh, I'm terribly sorry. Current Bloom-mart starting salaries are fixed at a current $13.25 per working hour. Do you find this acceptable?"

Do I find cleaning shiny store with a shiny gun for $13 an hour? Oh god yes.
"It's okay. And my hours?"

"Yes. Each Bloom-mart employee has a a flexible self-managed schedule that can be updated from their Personal Identification Tag. I believe yours is currently affixed your uniform."

You look down at the shiny tag attached to your apron. Your text stating your name has been replaced by a screen calendar with a really overdone flower background. You pull up today's date and see that all the time slots in the morning and afternoon crossed out in red.

"While this weeks schedule is set we do have a open time slot for tonight's night shift. There is also a Thursday afternoon and Saturday morning position. All post-Sunday time slots have not been decided."

>Night Shift
>Thursday Afternoon
>Saturday Morning
>Next Week

Raising you head from the screen. You check you watch, 1 PM. Hopefully the bank has finished being robbed so you can go drop off those checks.
"Great, is that everything"

"Yes, Melissa Madison. We sincerely hope you enjoy being part of the Bloom-Mart family. Have a present day."

- - - - - - - - -

Exiting the store you hop into a quick trot down the street. Leaving behind Your new employer, the burnt out husk of the store next dore and a giant squid fighting a 50-foot tall man in a pink sombrero you hurry to get your errands done.

Today was a good day, although you sort of wish something interesting had happened.
But hey, there's always tomorrow.


>That's it for today everyone.
>Debating on if I want to just leave this quest as a one-shot or actually run it as a series. Thoughts?
>>
>>36792355
Desperately climbing the ladder of some weird automated corporation that may or may not have burned down the competition next-door, whilst avidly ignoring any sort of super powers we have?

I'd play that.
>>
>>36792355
Eh I'd prefer the powers thing... to convenience store worker. That being said I'll give it a shot I suppose.

Do I need to archive this?

You've definitely got something set up now, why not follow on with it?
If you ran it as a series there are several interesting directions you could take it, between the weird store and the suppressed powers.

Alright everyone, I figured since you made it today running tomorrow at the same time shouldn't be a problem?

Like I said 6pm EST same time as today.

I even dug up a twitter so you all won't yell at me.
