You are Giles, Master Thief, confidant extraordinaire, and professional wrestler.

Your job has taken another interesting turn, as you’ve now gone from house guest to escort.

Marcy doesn’t seem too happy about her new rooming situation, and she made her feelings quite known. Luckily you managed to convince Melissa to let her off the hook.

You also spent some time making a new cloak and teaching Selene how to sew. Now you match, which is adorable.

The night grows darker still, but the dark is a Devil’s playground.
You will survive this, as you always have. But those around you are less accustomed to the dark.
Can you see them safely to the dawn?

The feast is winding to a close, and you’ve realized 2 things this night: Number one is that you are not a drinker. That first glass of wine went straight to your head, and you had to stop there.

The second is that Melissa is a drinker. She downed her first glass like a champ, and is now in the process of drinking Dalen, Zen and the King under the table.

Just where the hell does all that alcohol go, her breasts? Maybe you should take before and after measurements next time she drinks, just to see.

Or maybe not. You don’t think she’d appreciate that…

But maybe she would let you. You never know until you try, right?

You’re pulled from your rather strange train of thought by someone tugging on your cloak.
“Giles” She says.
“What’s up kiddo?” You ask.
“Tired” She says.

Laura giggles. “I should be getting her to bed, it’s getting late” She says, scooping up the tired little girl.

Laura stands up to leave, and everyone else gets up as well.

“Where are you guys off to?” You ask.
“The baths. You should come too” Melissa says.

“What’s that supposed to mean?” You ask.
“You smell. We all smell. I’m not sleeping in a room with someone who smells” She says.

You do not smell. You raise an arm and smell your pit.
Okay… maybe you do smell a bit…

“You coming along after the kidlet is asleep?” You ask Laura.
“No, we’ll head down there in the morning. I’m pretty tired myself.” She says.
“Alright then. Goodnight Selene” You say, giving her a kiss on the head. “And you too Laura. I’ll see you tomorrow”
“Goodnight Giles” They both say. Though Selene more sort of… mumbles it.

The princesses leave the hall, and you follow the others out.

The King leaves the group as well. Citing that as King he is still a busy man, though he says that it was nice spending time with everyone.

So it’s just you, Cedric, Eleanor, Dalen, Zen, Melissa and Marcy-… is gone. Well, you didn’t expect her to stick around.

“So what I everybody up to tomorrow?” You ask.

“Meetings” Dalen says
“Meetings” Zen says
“Meetings” Melissa says.

None of them sound happy about it.

“What about you two?” You ask.
“We’re going into town to get some stuff” Cedric says.
“That doesn’t sound so bad” You say.
“It’s not. Well, in comparison it isn't” Eleanor says.

“Yep. With everybody busy tomorrow, we gave those two a long list of stuff to grab.” Dalen says. “Mostly just things we couldn’t bring with us”

“Still doesn’t sound so bad” You say.
“Yeah, it’s nice to not be stuck with the hard work for once” Cedric says.

“What kind of stuff are you guys picking up?” You ask.
“Clothes, shoes, stuff like that. Also, we got measurements so we can get dress clothes for the end of this gathering” Eleanor says.

“There’s something happening at the end of all this?” You ask.
“No one told you? There’s a ball” Melissa says.
“Another one? Isn't this a bit of an odd time for something like that?” You ask.
“Yes, but the nobles love that stuff. So the king is throwing a ball at the end of the gathering” Melissa says.

“Am I invited?” You ask.
“Yes… why wouldn’t you be invited?” Melissa asks.
“Just curious” You say.
“Oh I see. Looking forward to more dancing, are we?” Melissa asks.

“No… maybe… a little…” You say. As much as you want to deny it, that was kind of fun last time.

“Speaking of which. Is there anything you want us to pick up for you Giles?” Eleanor asks.

Probably. You need to replace your replacement boots, which were already replacing the pair that got ruined in Catisse. You need more crystal daggers. You need to replenish your stock of hats. And there’s a few other things you need.

“Thanks for the offer, but I’ll have to pass. I’ll make some time to head into town on my own at some point.” You say.

“You sure? It’s really no trouble” Cedric says.
You give them a sly smile. “As much as I’d love to have you guys do this for me, I need things that I’d rather not send someone else to get” You say.

“Point taken” Cedric says.

With that, your group has reached the baths. The ladies and the gentlemen split off into the separate changing rooms, even though the baths are shared.

You put your things into a safe box, which you lock with one of your own locks, wrap a towel around your waist, and head into the baths.

The air in here is thick and warm, and the water is even warmer.

You sit down and lean back, closing your eyes and letting the warmth soothe you.

Over somewhere else, you hear Dalen teasing the twins, while Zen laughs.

Your focus switches to the sounds closer to you, as you hear Melissa approach. “Hey Giles, could you do me a favor?” She asks.
You open one eye to look at her. The towel does little to cover her figure, and it takes more than a little discipline not to let your eyes wander.

“What kind of favor?” You ask.
“Well… you remember the last time we were somewhere like this...?" She asks.
"Yes" You say.
Melissa's shoulders tense up. "Remember what we did...?" She asks.
"Yes" You say.
"C-could you... maybe... do... it... again?" She asks.
"You want a back rub?" You ask

Melissa nods bashfully

“You sure you don’t want to do this later? We are sharing a room now” You say.
Melissa crosses her arms and pouts. The latter is cute, you’ll admit. But the former pushes up her chest and loosens her towel to the point where you think it might fall off.

You sigh. “Fine, fine. Come here.” You say.

Melissa smiles confidently and strides up to the side of the bath, where she leans against the edge and drops her towel to her waist.

“You’re really sure about this?” You ask.
She looks back at you impatiently. “Less talky, more rubby” She says.

You roll your eyes and get to work. Melissa sighs contentedly as she feels your hands begin to rub her shoulders.

How? Is it something like it relaxing you?

>>
Melissa’s satisfied groans and sighs are punctuated by the occasional hiccough.

“Just how much did you drink?” You ask.
“Nnnnone of your business” She says.

You give her shoulders a little pinch, eliciting a squeaky gasp from Melissa.
“Fine, fine, I had like…” She stops and thinks. “A lot” She says.
“Uh-huh” You say.

“But MMMMMmmmmmmm…” She trails off into a contented hum for a bit before continuing. “But man can the King ever drink. He walked out of there just fine, I’ll be lucky if I can get up at all tomorrow morning” She says.

“You seem pretty okay now” You say.
“It ha-haaaasn’t made it to my head yet” She says. “It’ll get there”
“Still working its way past your bo-“ You begin, but stop when Melissa reaches a leg back and plants it firmly into your groin. “Nevermind, point taken. I’ll behave” You say.

Melissa withdraws her foot, looking back at you with a sly smile. “So long as you’ve learned your lllllesson” She says.

“Where’d you learn to drink like that, anyway?” You ask.
“Father Pitre” She says. “He may not look like it, but he’s got quite the stomach. I only drank with him a few times, and I never even once managed to outlast him” She says.

Huh. You never thought you’d hear that about him. As far as you knew, priests like him weren’t allowed to drink…

“So what Ha-aaaaaave you been up to while you were gone?” She asks. “I think I already know the answer, but I realize now that I never asked” She says.

Tends to speed up most parasympathetic processes, so sleepy and horny and veeery quick digestion. Stomach growling and the like is very common, as well as people reeeally needing to use the restroom immediately afterward. So beforehand probably not so much, but it will empty your stomach quicker, which can lead to faster drunkenness.

You work your way further down her back. “Sure” You say.

“Really?” She asks.
“Well yeah. I mean, I can’t tell you everything, obviously. But I can at least let you know what I’ve been up to” You say.

“O-okay” She says. You feel her back tense itself under your hands.
“You didn’t expect me to say yes, did you?” You ask.
“I thought you’d just dodge the question or something” She says.
“Well, you’ve been pretty forthcoming. It’s only fair that I show you the same courtesy” You say. Then you place your hands at the base of her spine and slowly work your way up. “So relaaaaaaaaaax”

Melissa moans unrestrainedly, drawing the attention of the other people in the baths. They do their best to ignore you. You realize this looks way more sexual than it actually is.

Or maybe it is a little sexual…

Fuck, now you’re the one who needs to relax.

>[1/2]
>>
You distract yourself by getting into your story, from the days after you left her, to the day you arrived at the palace.

Melissa’s done her homework on the Master Thieves, and you know that she’s putting your journey together with your “hobby” as you tell her your tale.

You’re into the part where you were in Celtere planning to steal the Anzu’s egg from the dragon Lord Baraghan, when Eleanor approaches you.

“We’re all done, so we’ll be heading off” She says.
“Already?” You ask.
“Yep. So we’ll give the two of you your privacy” She says.
“It’s not like that” You say.
“Suuuuuuure” Eleanor says, winking and turning to leave.

Melissa sticks out an arm and waves lazily. “Good niiiiiight Eleanor” She says.
“Good night Lady Melissa” She says.

You hear the others leave the baths too, but you shrug and continue your tale…

It’s only when you get to the palace that Melissa speaks up.

“I know the rest” She says.
“Well yeah, you were there” You say.

“Giles… Remember when you asked me if I had any friends?” She asks.
“Yeah” You say.
“I… I noticed that you never mentioned another person… have you been alone all this time?” She asks.

“I guess I have” You say.
“And you had the gall to complain that I had no friends” She says. “What changed your mind?”
“What changed my mind about what?” You ask.
“Flying solo. Something must’ve happened at the palace” She says.

...why?

Selene is the only reason I voted to stick around, and Melissa is one of the few people who'd understand our reason.
>>
>>39619247
>>[ ] Straight answer

We grew attached to Selene. Kid's got a heckufva lot of willpower, and she's a dab hand at...well, using her hands. And eyes. And ears.

...We may have had thoughts relating to the possibility of apprenticeship. The game's changed at the moment, though.
>>
>>39619419
Wait, she'll understand we want to take her to heist with us make her a partner in crime? but seriously what's our real reason?
>>
>>39619521
That is literally the primary reason we stuck around.
>>
>>39619521
I thought the long and short was that we made friends?
>>
>>39619686
Not really we wanted to have a princess apprentice thief. I regret nothing.
>>
“To be completely honest, I’d been avoiding people” You say.
“Avoiding people?” She asks.

“Keeping conversations to a minimum, never taking an interest in someone, being alone whenever I could.” You say. “My uhh….” You listen carefully to see if anyone is around, only when you’re satisfied do you continue. “My cover at the palace forced me to get close to people, even though i usually avoided that stuff”

“I thought you had gone undercover like that tons of times” She says.
“Nope. I always just did things the old fashioned way, in and out without being seen. The Palace was a bit more daunting than I was comfortable with, though once I got inside I wondered why I was ever afraid at all” You say.

“But while I was there, I got to know Cedric and Eleanor. I spent a lot of time with Selene, and I must say that I’ve grown pretty attached to her. Then there was Laura, and Marcellus, and… you” You say.

“You’ve been lonely” She says.

You try to come up with a denial or a retort, but you think she hit the nail right on the head… Is that really it? Were you just so lonely that you latched on to the first people to show you any sort of friendship?

“I guess I have been” You say.

It’s quiet for a while. You feel Melissa tense up again, then she slowly brushes your hands away and turns around. There is a lot you can see right now, but she doesn’t seem to care.

Neither do you, as you can’t pull your eyes away from hers. She looks sad.

“You don’t have to be lonely anymore” She says. “I’ll always be here”

>>39619686
Honestly, one came after the other. We liked her moxie and her wanting to learn sneaky skills, then we (quickly) came to like Selene in general.

>>39619751
It's amazing that we've basically taught her almost everything to do with thievery...except ACTUAL thievery. That dam's gonna break sooner or later, for better or worse reasons.

“Thanks, really.” You say. “That means a lot”

Melissa swallows hard, and lets out a shaky breath.

“C-close your eyes” She says.
“Why?” You ask.
“Just do it” She says.

You examine her face for a moment.

She’s flushed, and still hiccoughing every now and then. Looks like the wine got to her, whether she knows it or not…

“Melissa, you’re drunk” You say.
She scowls “I am not!” She says.

You hold up 3 fingers. “How many fingers do you see?”
She slaps your hand down. “I am not…” She stops, staring off into the distance with an uncomfortable look that you don’t like…

“By any chance, is there a toilet or something within 5 feet of here?” She asks.
“No… please tell me you aren’t going to-“
“Right here will have to do” She says, turning around and vomiting over the edge of the bath.

You sigh and rub her back with one hand while the other holds her hair out of the way.

You’ll need to tell someone about this before you go to bed…

Eventually, Melissa passes out over the side of the bath. You pull her towel up and wrap it around so she’s once again covered, and pick her up and carry her back to the lady’s changing room.

Now you have a different dilemma. You can’t take her back to your room soaking wet and butt naked, but drying and clothing her yourself might be a bit too much for you…

You sigh.

“Just shattering these barriers, aren’t you Giles?” You say, grabbing a towel from a nearby rack and getting to work.

“No big deal, right? Just imagine… something else… sing a tune. That’s it, I’ll sing” You say.

You quietly hum a song that Pitre used to sing. You don’t remember the words, but the tune is familiar.

Once she’s dry, you open up her safe box and pull out her clothes.

“Of course the clothes she brings had to have fucking straps and fucking hooks and fucking ties and-“

“Is someone in here?” A person outside asks.
“GAH!” You shout. You were so caught up in not paying attention to what you were doing that you weren’t paying attention to your surroundings.

“Oh, it’s just you Giles” The person says. They enter the change rooms and you can see that it’s Marcy.

And Marcy sees Melissa lying naked on the bench…

“This isn’t what it looks like” You say.
“I’ve heard that way too many times from you” Marcy says.
“Look, she was drunk, she puked, she passed out. I’ve been trying to dry and clothe her so I could put her to bed” You say.
“Oh… I guess that makes sense. She was trying to out drink King Julian after all…” She says.

“Could you handle the dressing while I go and tell someone about the mess?” You ask.
“Sure, but why me?” She asks.

“You’re a girl.” You say. “Also, you probably know more about straps and hooks and ties then me”
“You forget which gender I dress as” She says. “This shit is foreign to me”
“Well… just get her covered enough that I can bring her back to our room without giving someone as eyeful” You say.
“Gotcha, I’ll try my best” She says.

You head back into the baths and quickly unlock your own safe box. You’re already pretty much dry, so you just throw on a shirt, a pair of pants and your cloak and run out into the hall.

You flag down a servant and let him know about the situation. He doesn’t seem too pleased, but he seems grateful that you had the decency to apologize…

Then you head back to the lady’s room, and find Marcy putting the finishing touches on Melissa. “There” She says, stepping back to admire her handywork.

“It’s messy, but it’ll do the trick” You say.
Marcy jumps and wheels around. “Wh-when did you get there?” She asks.
“Five seconds ago” You say. “Why?”
Marcy breathes a sigh of relief. “Nothing. Don’t worry about it” She says.

That was very obviously not nothing…

You raise an eyebrow.
“I said it’s nothing!” Marcy says.

You raise it further.
“Are you seriously doing this?” She asks.

A little higher…
She sighs. “I may have been… talking to myself a bit.” She says.
“Talking to yourself about what?” You ask.

“None of your damn business” She says, her eyes flipping between you and Melissa.
You follow her gaze and-… oh that’s actually hilarious. “Breast envy?” You ask.

Marcy punches you hard in the arm. “No damn way! I’d never be able to bind if I had a chest like that” She says.

You’re about to continue teasing when you hear someone coming.

“Also, I-“ Marcy begins. You cut her off by making a cutting gesture across your throat.

“Anyways, I’ll take her to our room and put her down for the night.” You say.
Marcy looks confused for a moment, but then a servant girl enters with a bucket and a mop.

Marcy grimaces. “Yeah, good idea. I guess I can wait until tomorrow to wash up.” She says, then she mouths a silent ‘thank you’ and leaves.

Once Marcy is gone, you turn to the servant. “Sorry again about the mess” You say.
“Don’t worry M’lord. It’s not the first time someone’s tried to out drink the king and it won’t be the last.” She says, taking her equipment into the baths.

With this all out of the way, you bend at the knees and lift Melissa off the bench…

>[1/2]
>>
Damn she’s heavy…
At the very least, she weighs more than Laura. But Laura is pretty damn skinny…

When you reach the door, you throw Melissa over your shoulder and search for your key. You know it’s in here…

No, it’s with the rest of your stuff in the change room…

Fuck it.

You put Melissa down and pick the lock, then pick her back up and enter. Inside the room, you place her gently on the bed.

“Whoo… that was a hassle and a half. One of us is going to have to watch your drinking young missy.” You say.

You’d love to crawl into bed as well, but you still need to get your things.

And there might be some other stuff to deal with while you’re out…

We were explicitely told not to snoop, which means there has got to be a reason to snoop.

I think it's just because the King doesn't trust Giles and has more than two cents to rub together upstairs.

You pull the covers over Melissa and give her a kiss on the forehead. Then you leave the room and lock it with your picks.

It feels weird to be locking something with these…

With that in mind as another example of how much your life has changed, you head back to the change room.

You find that all of your stuff is right where you left it. You put on your hat, boots and gloves and grab your cane. Then you head over to the lady’s room and see if Melissa left anything behind.

Turns out that Marcy did not put her undergarments back on… You’ll stow those in the cloak for now…

With all of your stuff and a bit of Melissa’s now safe from whoever might want to take them, you leave the change rooms.

The king didn’t seem to want you snooping about. Let’s see if he has anything to hide…

You walk about the castle for a bit, avoiding contact with anyone while you move about.

You check a few offices for good measure, but in the end you come up empty handed.

Eventually you get bored and head up to the room where the scepter used to be. The lock goes down easily, and you step in.

The room is pretty much just how you left it, fat sack of gold and everything. You wonder if there’s a reason why the King hasn’t done anything with that yet.

Done admiring your work, you head back down to your room.

There, you enter and see that Melissa has decided to spread herself and try to take up as much of the bed as she can.

And she’s not wearing any underwear. Thank you eyes, for remembering that fact and going down there…

You get changed into your pajamas… well, your pajama bottoms. Laura still has your shirt. But you've resigned yourself to the fact that you're not getting that back, so the pants will do.

Then you sigh and try to push her to the side enough to make some room for yourself. Only too late do you remember what happened last time you decided to disturb the sleeping Melissa…

She grabs you and pulls your down to the bed, wrapping her arms and legs around you. Like you would somehow disappear if she were to release you…

Well, you aren’t going anywhere tonight at least… Not if she plans on sleeping like this.

On the upside, she is very soft.

You run a hand through her hair and kiss her head, then you close your eyes.

You could get used to sleeping like this...

That's all for tonight. I hope you still enjoy reading this as much as I enjoy writing it!

Next thread will probably be on Thursday. If it isn't, then I am free to run this weekend and I will probably be doing so.

Bit of an early night tonight, but as always I'll stick around for question time.

It's not like that fear is completely unfounded.
