Quest Start


Brilliance envelopes you, distant imagery of stars and the endless cosmic expanse moves around and through you. Miles traveled and sights beyond their distance are open to your senses in the span of a moment as hands grasp your own. By left hand and right you are part of a closed circle of seven souls connected by magic and guided by the will of celestial bodies given flesh and self determination.

The weightlessness of your travel is cut short as you have body and mass again. You and the six other girls who form the circle, whose magic fueled intercontinental teleportation, each take a knee from the exertion. At your point of arrival, you are awaited.

A moment prior you had been in the catacomb bowels of France, a side exploration after shadowing the movements of the enemies whose actions have threatened this world...your world.

You are Mikage Chiba, second year highschool student fifteen years old, and formerly the third woman to carry the mantle as the Pretty Guardian in a Sailor Suit; the magical girl known as Sailor Moon. After a traumatic victory, you abandoned this identity inherited from your mother and older sister and left it to the hands of your younger sister, Koyomi.

Now, having come to terms with your past mistakes and misunderstandings, you have risen anew to protect your baby sister and her burgeoning court of new Sailor Guardians against an enemy tied to your family’s history in an ancient era long lost to modern humanity. Additionally in this time you have been dealing with issues of your own trauma schismed personality, repairing friendships you let drift away, acquiring new allies, and consolidating your own power.

In a past life your mother was Princess and heir to the magical power of the silver moon above while your father was Prince and awaiting heir to the magical power of the earth below. Though those yet fully realized, those powers are your own.

“Thank goodness you guys found her,” scoffs your Knight Marshall as she smooths out her sequin heavy black and silver uniform, pulling her mask free as she kneels beside the black and red haired woman to your right, “Keiko, you okay?”

She is Midori Mori, your appointed Jadeite Knight. The woman to your right to whom she is checking upon is her friend and lover Keiko Sugimoto, the first Sailor Senshi of the Sol System created new in countless eons; Guardian protected by the Sun known as Sailor Sol.

“You could be a bit more concerned about Mikage,” sighs a woman who had also been waiting, clad in a similarly cut uniform of shiny red of deeper hue than her hair, as she lays a hand on your shoulder, “Are you okay?”

She is your best friend, Kairi Osaka, and your appointed Nephrite Knight. Perhaps she is something more, but your feelings there are torn in more than one direction.

“I’ll be fine Kairi-chan,” you rise and regard Sailor Sol and the collected Asteroid Guardians, “Thank you all for coming to get me, sorry if I worried all of you,”

Your apology hangs in the air of the otherwise empty alleyway the lot of you are congressed in. Above the the sun hangs just far enough off appex to be some time in the early afternoon.

“Honestly, you are just as much trouble as Usa,” groans Sailor Ceres as she stretches her back and then smiles at you smugly, “Which is to say I think I’ve missed this kind of trouble,”

“Palla Palla saw so many cool skulls!” Sailor Pallas swoons as her open palms finder cheeks, “And that incorporation into the architecture, Palla Palla will definitely remember that in her future work!”

“You know,” a gruff voice calls from the edge of the alley, a young blonde man of short stature and dark skin leaning against a custom Russian military motorcycle, “It might be a bit hard to get your hands on so many skulls. So, what’s your next move?”

And just what is the next move? You know your enemies have ties to Ellis Unlimited, and their presence in the Paranormal Incident Taskforce and place in the international Paranormal Incident Think Tank means they have significant access to the Sailor Senshi ‘s movements and are involved in the efforts against the as yet properly named enemy.

Just what can you do? Mom and the other original Sailor Guardians are in space with Paranormal Incident Think Tank personnel. Dad is coordinating at the metro building with the international effort as a liaison and just knowing means he’ll poke around and be at risk…

What about your baby sister? What about Captain Osaka? There are so many variables...

>Tomorrow we touch base about this with the young Senshi and your teacher, Sailor Saturn
>We need to get in touch with Captain Osaka, Kairi-chan’s mother, about this. We can trust her.
>We can’t trust anyone connected to PIT now, so that means we need to find a way to warn Mom

Need to warn/inform Naru and Dad.
Putting out feelers for the ones that the enemy wants hunted would be good too.
Had a thought on reaching the original senshi, psychic team up with the young senshi and try to reach out to them that way.

“We let Captain Osaka know, for sure,” you explain after a moment of conflicted thought and run your hands out through your long and unbound pink hair, shaking bits of dirt from it, “And in the meantime I need to go deeper into enemy territory...they offered me a loyalty mission to see if I can make the cut,”

“A loyalty mission? You aren’t going to have to stage another fight with me and the New Senshi?” Keiko groans as she lets her transformation go and explodes in blinding light into her civilian clothes, “I’m really not looking forward to that,”

“No, they want me to track down missing assets and take them off the board,” you grouse.

“Missing assets?” Kairi queries as she shifts back into her normal clothes, as do the others still in their transformed states.

“The shadow creature that came out of Momoko Nakajima,” you then turn toward the boy by the motorcycle, your friend Sasha, “and the others that emerged from your classmates. Apparently they’re not with the program and skulking around Juuban,”

Your assembled allies consider this as your rise and remove the gray robed regalia of Eclipsed, repurposed from one of your father’s old split identity of the Moonlight Knight. Standing in your normally dress, hair done up in tightly bound buns and hauntingly long tails, you regard them all with a cool clarity of...of someone in charge.

“Kairi-chan, you need to be the one to tell your mother. I think she knows to be careful enough to not tip her hand to the enemy. Sasha, I want you to talk to Nakajima-san and the rest of your classmates to see if they’re having strange dreams,” you explain curtly as the memory of the shadow infected earth haunts you fro within the depths of the earth, “We need to get feelers out about those shadow monsters before we move. Palla Palla, Jun, Ceres, and Ves; the four of you need to keep operating alongside PIT to prevent anyone from rousing suspicions,”

“What about the younger Senshi?” Midori asks with crossed arms and a popped hip.

“Secrets aren’t Koyomi’s strength...we play this part close,” you explain solemnly.

“Don’t worry!” Palla Palla cheers.

“Yeah, if anything happens during cooperative PIT engagements, we’ll keep the Sailor Squirts safe,” Ves finishes with a broad smile.

“Ves, you shouldn’t tease them for being Sailor Guardians, we are too,” Jun scolds softly.

“I was just saying...because they were young...you know,” Ves defends herself, her smile faltering.

“Yes yes,” Ceres sighs, “Remember for how long we were that young. Not exactly fair of you to mock that,”

As the Sailor Quartet fall into familiar pattern of friendly bickering, you begin to part ways. The older young woman heading back to their own lives in this middling saturday afternoon, Sasha bidding a curt nod and a reaffirmation of his promise to help out with tomorrow’s training before motoring off to follow up his investigation.

You, Keiko, Midori, and Kairi make your way together back to Juuban in Minato ward.

It’s Saturday afternoon. Tomorrow you and your Knights are supposed to train together with your younger sister and her court of Sailor Senshi, and after you and your sister will be doing something important at Tomoe-sensei’s secret lab. Tonight you could begin the hunt for those four missing shadows, go to the local concert of a [italics]friend[/italics], or spend time with your friends.

You can figure that out once you get back to Juuban.

>Conversational write in: Is there anything you want to talk to Keiko, Midori, and or Kairi about on the trip home or do together?

& for tonight

>Be a homebody and stay in to relax a bit
>Go out hunting in the guise of your darker former alter ego for these shadows
>Investigate around town for these shadows socially
>Go to Yoshi’s concert, as yourself. Alone or do you ask anyone along?
>Hang out somewhere else with friends, who do you ask?

>>Conversational write in: Is there anything you want to talk to Keiko, Midori, and or Kairi about on the trip home or do together?
Sorry for dropping off the radar, didn't know that would happen. You all held together well.

Afternoon
>>Investigate around town for these shadows socially
Quartet of young ladies skulking around has bound to be noticed by someone.

Evening
>>Go to Yoshi’s concert, as Miki.
Each wearing a mask to the show seems good; we know who each other are and that helps preserve his semi-secret identity.

>Alone or do you ask anyone along?
Maybe alone, unless they just want to see the concert. Though Teal & co might still show up.

We aren't being pushed here, in fact people are banned for telling people to go to /qst/, which is what makes this move all the more absurd.

“So,” you begin among your friends as you fall in step back with more populous areas on this weekend afternoon, taking a moment to smooth out your knee skirt, “sorry about falling off the radar back there,”

“Yeah, what happened there anyway?” Midori questions, her curiosity piqued.

“Well, we found her down in the catacombs,” Keiko observes and taps her lip in thought.

“That would explain why Palla-san was talking about skulls,” Kairi reasons.

“I found another Leyline intersection,” you explain, “Down there in the catacombs of Paris, but there was something else down there...before I could claim the location and its earth power I had to put it to rest,”

“Right right right,” Midori sighs, “More crazy adventures...well, guess once you’ve finished with this loyalty mission of theirs we’ll have a more clear beat on their base in France,”

“Mhmm” you nod, “And I’m gonna poke around a little this afternoon before taking a bit of time to unwind tonight,”

“Oh? What did you have in mind?” Kairi queries.

“Why,” you smirk, wink, and give a swift outlining gesture of an imaginary pompadour above your forehead, “The best way to go around town looking for info on delinquent girls,”

“Ugh,” Kairi-chan groans a bit to herself as her shoulders drop, “Are you really going to go around as Dan for this?”

“Yup, it’s a great idea,” you lay your hands on your hips, stopping on the sidewalk, and then flourish your disguise pen at the girls, “Besides, I think I have some issues to work out as him...he’s still a separate persona,”

“So, how many of these fractures do you have left?” Keiko inquires.

“Well, after bringing home Miki and the Beast, that leaves-”

“Berret girl, nerd girl, and this Dan guy?” Midori finishes for you, “I was wondering why one of the those other selves of yours on that vanity was a guy?”

“What?” Kairi and Keiko asks from either side in unison.

“It was in the dreamscape,” you explain and remind, “When Midori and I were getting ready to rescue Keiko from her past life,”

“Not fond of Mikage-chan’s more masculine side, Kairi-chan?” Keiko leans forward and looks over to the red headed girl with a teasing tone and smile.

Your best friends initial response is to narrow her eyes and offer a harumph. The two conspiring lesbians share a giggle amongst themselves, hands intwined. You roll your eyes and catch up to the three of them.

“Well, I’ll go talk to my mom, at home,” Kairi declares as you cross the border back into the Minato ward of Tokyo.

“Maybe Kairi wants to take the more masculine lead,” Midori reasons without shame, “I mean, being a Knight makes me feel that bold,”

And it's your turn to blush a bit.

“Okay, I’ll see you guys later,” you say with hurried words and look about to ensure you’re all somewhere sparsely populated as you hold up your disguise pen, “Time to get this show on the road,”
>>
>>202775

Depressing the disguise pen, you are clad in shimmering light. Your hair darkens, shortens, and coifs into the expected pompadour. Your clothes explode and rearrange themselves into new cuts and patterns. Blouse and skirt are replaced by a t shirt with rolled up sleeves and jeans. Your impressive figure hidden beneath a streamlining pattern cut between the two and a binding suppression across your chest. Flats are replaced with sneakers, and at last a dark jacket slings across your shoulders.

With the outward guise in place, your mind sinks into itself, letting the necessary mask bleed forward.

“Laaaaaaaaadies,” you snap your fingers and gesture widely to the three girls.

“And that’s my cue to leave,” that Kairi girl shakes her head and charges off.

“Wait, Kairi-” you call out, what’s her problem?

“Nope,” Midori steps in front of you, “She’s got a job to do, and so do we,”

She hesitates and looks you over, grabbing your chin and turning your face to the left and right.

“Dan,” she finally finishes.

“What’s this we?”

“You know, looking together for leads on those girls?” Keiko interjects from the side.

“Hold on hold on,” you explain, “I can’t go around cruising for chicks with two in tow. That’ll crush my vibe, I won’t be able to go with the flow with you two pulling me this way and that,”

Midori stares at you, confused for a moment and then with a decidedly mirth filled expression.

“Oh my god, you’re serious,” she laughs.

Midori and Keiko split off, saying that if they have nothing else to do they might as well have some quality time to themselves before their plans tonight. Leaving you to haunt the streets looking for four spooky girls, at least one of whom you describe based on Nakajima’s description.

A few hours and assorted rounds about the ward result in you being given the cold shoulder and no worthwhile information. To be certain you land a few insulted and angry responses, but manage not to wind up with drinks or slaps thrown in your face.

There’s no pleasing some people. Ah well, you tried your best, even digging deep into your reserve of celestial power from within your star whatsit. Not that it helped all that much.

Deciding it’s best to step back from this version of yourself to redress your approach, you fade back and prematurely end the guise and allow Mikage back to the fore.

“That…” you grouse at your own actions and mannerisms, “wasn’t as fun as I was expecting,”

Shaking your head from hours of misunderstandings and innuendo both intended and not, you make your way toward the venue for the second night of Yoshi Sakurada’s concert.

Though whom will you go as? Kalunite will probably be there again, and you don’t want him sniffing after your personal business if you show up as the Red Eyed Beast.

Nigger, please.

/qst/ will not get you new readers, it won't generate new interest, all it is, is a sad ghetto for questing on 4chan to die in.

>>202981
Stop telling us not to have fun.

This has been one of the only times I've been to /qst/ and not stayed in the general.
>>
>>202981
You seem angrier than actually necessary. Good luck with that. This was me amidst giving up on most things, but I'll finish this quest hell or high water where ever.

Yeah, I was mad at first about the board, then I realized it didn't matter. Yeah I made a joke, I made a joke because that's how I deal with bullshit.

That's what your anger at me is right now, bull shit. Bullshit for me, bullshit for you, and a waste of both our time. I don't know what you're dealing with right now, maybe its tough in your personal life, and maybe I don't care just as much as you don't care what's going on with my life and you shouldn't because this is 4chan. Also if you're gonna use an epitaph at me at least use the right fucking one and call me a kike, I think that will make us all a bit happier in the quality of how pissed off we are in all things. Much more efficient that way.

Now, I took time out of writing the next update because I was just tweaked enough to fall for bait. Just enough. And I've probably turned you off from my quest forever, and you know what with the attitude you're dropping now it probably doesn't matter where I ran you probably would anyway. So good luck anon.

Good luck and may you find happiness and peace because I fucking want at least just one someone to fucking fuckity have some happiness and peace right now. Fuck.

Not angry art, not angry at all. You cannot presume to understand someone's tone from text.

I love this quest, I read every single thread in a week to catch up at the 110's. I love the time you've put into this, and I love the characters in this quest. I was just disappointed in your decision to move. That's it, I expressed in the best 4chan way, green text and calling you a nigger.

Lots of things matter, but that guy's opinion is not really one to stress about.

>>203037
>>203059
It's the playpen right next door, it isn't like the quest moved across the country and didn't leave a forwarding address.

Lots of quests and QMs have either moved or run a few things here too. Personally I rarely visited /tg/ directly these days anyway, just hop links to folks' quests from Twitter. So, despite my own initial annoyance with it, I'm relatively ok with it now that archiving is functional. Only thing I don't like is the auto-sage after 48 hours, but for the time being the board moves slow enough that it hasn't been too disruptive.

It still seems like a silly move to create a special board for it though. How long before Warhammer gets its own board at this rate?
Conversely, I can see the idea of a separate board opening it up to more to folks from outside /tg/'s playpen. Whether that is good or not is another question.
>>
>>203149
Autosage is 72 hours, has been since week 1. /tg/ was originally created because of too many Warhammer threads clogging up Wednesdays.
>>
>>203166
At this point I note that I don't visit /qst/ directly either and had missed that update.
Thank you, that would explain why it hadn't been as bad as I feared it would.

Taking out the disguise pen, finding a dark place along the way, you activate it again. Shortening your hair, but leaving it pink, you make your skin look artificially darkened and all the other makeup colorations you would utilize making yourself up in front of the mirror. Giving yourself denim short shorts, cute pumps, and a puffy sleeved blouse that falls off both of your shoulders, you run your hands through your hair and whip it wildly with a shake.

With the last glowing pulsation of transformation coming to the ends of your fingertips, you trail them under the light makeup beneath either of your eyes and leave a refractive trail of press on beads. Removing the mundane VIP pass for the event and walk by the forming line for standard entry and flash it at the entrance to get in even though it’s still really early for the show and the line isn’t half as long yet as you remember from yesterday.

As you start past the opened way into the venue, you are given a moment of pause. Glancing back along the line, you see a friend from the fashion circle in decidedly different clothes than you are used to seeing her in.

Yesterday you saw Hanako Minami in an outfit slightly and casually selected outfit for the show, tonight she looks as though she’s trying too hard. She has her more robust frame slipped into a lot of tight green clothes and some darker makeup especially lining her eyes. Actually the makeup is a bit runny.

It’s a weird look to be sure; and the woman with the wild white hair you fought yesterday, Hisako Ito, is with her and punching her playfully in the shoulder. Oddly, Hanako doesn’t seem amused. Normally she’s all sunshine and smiles, hence her nickname of Flowers in the Ganguro Fashion Circle.

Offering her a short wave before ducking inside, she sparks with recognition and offers a self conscious wave back.

What to do…

>Head into the venue and have a few drinks on the balcony
>Stay out in line for a bit and chat with Minami-san and her...roommate?
>Head backstage, look for Yoshi
>Look around and see if Teal is anywhere

Well, it pays not to be rude to your friends. Offering the bouncer a gesture indicating you need a moment, you drop the VIP pass around your neck and step back out toward the other girls. There are a few other familiar faces here or there, more recurrent fans from the last showing including the rockabilly girl you saw the other week on Kalunite’s arm.

Zeroing in on your friend and her exceedingly fun roommate, you regard her eschewing her usual dress carefully. Dark jeans, a green tank top, and a dark cotton jacket with frayed external seams. All in all it compliments the natural verdant hue of her hair.

“Flowers! Hey,” you call out and march up to the two girls.

“Miki! You made it to the show after all,” the black faux tears upon her face crease against her smile.

“Well, I know I said I was busy, but I made time for a second showing AND the afterparty for the first. Did you like things enough from the first show?” you ask her while giving her a hug.

“I heard about you being there from Teal this morning,” she says with a certain snicker, “from the sound of things she might have snagged another one night stand,”

“Even better,” you grin widely, “She made a move on a guy she actually likes and I’m pretty sure he likes her,”

She pushes you back to the length of her her soft arms and looks at you with suddenly wide eyes.

“No way!” she guffaws, a laugh uncharacteristic to her appearance, “Oh, I’m being rude. Miki this is my roommate Hisako Ito. Ito-san this is my friend from the fashion circle-”

She pauses and glances over to you, her eyes seeking permission for your actual name or your nickname from the circle. It was revealed to her fairly recently, so she perhaps isn’t sure about how you want to be introduced to her friends. You offer an nod. After all you are you, and you aren’t keeping this part of you separate anymore.

“-Mikage Chiba, or Miki when she’s all made up like this,” she finishes.

“It’s like a pleasure to meet you, Ito-san,” you beam at the taller girl.

“Yeah, a pleasure,” she extends a hand with a roll of her eyes as if to suggest she isn’t fond of an overly friendly attitude before a smirk crosses her lips, “Minami speaks highly of you girls when she isn’t sleeping in her dragon’s horde of clothes,”

“Ito!” the voluptuous verdant girl says in a scolding tone.

Being this close to Ito-san again, after your fight with her as the Red Eyed Beast, you note there are a few adhesive bandages across the side of her face where you landed your finishing cross. She seems far more tired and resigned than that night, maybe to a certain degree at peace.

On the other end of things, Hanako seems anxious and on edge about something…

>Flowers, you didn’t answer my question, like why see a second showing?
>Oh my goodness, Ito-san, what happened to your face! (Deception with this)
>So, like, what’s with the new look, Flowers?
>Are you like in college with Flowers, Ito-san? What do you study?
>Enough chatting, head in and check your phone
>Write in

>>So, like, what’s with the new look, Flowers?

I love Miki, so much

>>So, like, what’s with the new look, Flowers?
>>Are you like in college with Flowers, Ito-san? What do you study?

Gotta crash, early work for the holiday tomorrow. Ya'll have a good one and check that phone when we get a chance.
>>
>>203744
>Enough chatting, head in and check your phone

And writing.
>>
Darn was starting a write in but guess I ran out of time.
>>
“So, like,” you have to tread carefully here and find your answers in a roundabout manner, “what’s with the new look, Flowers?”

She glances down at herself, and one of her hands subconsciously grabs at the edge of her cotton jacket and tugs it slightly over her middle. Feigning momentary disinterest she rolls her shoulders a bit and purses her lips before answering.

“Well after seeing some of the outfits on the guests and the artists last night I thought I would throw something together,” she crosses her arms and exudes an aura of pride, “I think I put this together pretty well,”

You nod while looking over the outfit appraisingly, you’ve already taken it all in and formed your opinion, but you might as well give the appearance of putting it under more careful scrutiny. Its definitely an outfit to try and get noticed in, and worn with far more confidence than she normally has.

“Don’t bust a blood vessel critiquing this,” Ito interjects while knocking a cigarette loose into her hand and lighting it with a match struck against her bandages, “At least as a metal look, she’s trying to ape the look of some groupies who hang around with Malefic Black,”

“Oh?” you query as the green haired girl blushes.

“Can you not embarrass me right now?!” she hisses at her roommate.

“Hey, I won’t judge,” you explain with a knowing smile, “Like, maybe a little, but I guess that means the two of you will be sticking around after the show?”

“Definitely,” Ito-san says with a bored yawn while Midori fumes a bit.

“Then I’ll see you two after the show,” you say before finishing your assessment of Flower’s outfit, “I like it, by the way. Its totally outside of your usual comfort zone and I am proud of you for actually trying to flaunt yourself a bit, girl,”

“Ah, oh,” she stumbles unexpectedly, “Thank you, Miki,”

With a nod you disengage from the two of them and proceed back toward the entrance. Once inside with your VIP pass, you take a moment to roam about the house. Only taking a pause to review your phone for a bit.

Sasha sent you a message about his talks with two of the four girls. Apparently he emailed you more thorough notes on the talks. You’ll review them later when you have time to sit down. Checking Lurk you see decide to pull up @spookywon’s feed. Your activities are noted, but so are an uptick of other odd sightings around Juuban near Azabu-Juuban Park of mysterious women in black over the past few days and nights.

Interrupting picnics. Stolen food. Odd misdirection.

No outright attacks...curious.

Well, that’s all you’ll really get from that tonight. Switching over to Miki’s Lurk you see clearly that Teal will indeed be here again tonight. You will definitely ask her about how things went with Endo-kun.

>Go to the balcony bar and wait for the house to open with a drink
>Head backstage to the green room and see how Yoshi and his band are doing
>Hang out a bit for a smoke in the smoker’s alley
>Just wait out here in the main venue room before the show opens
>text or call someone
>Write in

Writing, final update of the night as I begin to fade and it seems most of you have as well.
>>
>>203983
Clues, budding love, budding groupie, and more to come. Looks like a fun start to the evening.
>>
Not wanting to bother Yoshi backstage, yet, you opt to head to the back of the venue main room and up the thin stairs into the balcony level where the bar awaits. There are scarce few others here just yet, and all of them are up here on the balcony level it would seem. You readily recognize three girls you saw at the other show in the green room for Malefic black.

Seeing them a second time, you recognize them for their older counterparts from a future that will never on this earth come to pass that have taken refuge on this earth. Actually seeing these girls reminds you that you really do need to make an appointment at the Phantom Sisters Salon to reign in your too long hair.

Besides them, crowding around the booth Kalunite sat in the other night, you see Teal at the bar. Teal, real name Nui Takeda, is both the leader of your fashion circle and your school’s student council president. She seems dressed in her usual style, a preference for modified vintage school uniforms, and there is a certain giddiness about her as she sets and empty glass down.

“I guess someone totes took to my amazing advice last night,” you smile slyly and knowingly as you sit at the bar next to your perfectly miniature older friend, to her surprise.

“Miki!” she says in a happiness a moment later as you wave down the bartender, “Glad you’re here,”

“Just a beer, I like totally need to keep my head later,” you explain before snapping your attention back to the tiniest Teal beside you, “So, how were things with Ennnnndo-kun?”

Her gut reaction, though shielded by her makeup, is embarrassment. It lasts only an instant before her confidence in these matters asserts itself and she meets your sly grin with a far more cocky attitude. Cocky and perhaps appreciative.

“It went well,” she says succinctly, “Your advice helped direct the rest of my night,”

As the open bottle is set down before you, Takeda’s cup is refilled with a dark amber. Raising bottle and glass to one another you ask the obvious.

“So, does this mean you two are a thing?” you question as the two of you gently knock the two together in toast, “Like, officially?”

“As official as we can get,” she shrugs and smiles sinisterly, “Now I figure I have until the semester break to convince him to ask my folks permission to see me officially,”

You choke a bit on your beer.

“Us spending time together at school won’t raise any flags,” she reasons behind a dry chuckle, “So I have that time and more before word gets back and the two of them suspect anything,”

“You’re planning around your parents?”

Not that such is particularly surprising, Nui Takeda’s family is extremely traditional. Though that she’s already scheming to move around them on a relationship is oddly fascinating.

“Planning and execution will be a necessity,” she affirms as she takes a firm drink from her glass, “What about you?”

You know she’s asking about things between you and Yoshi Sakurada. Taking another sip of your drink, you compose your thoughts as they presently stand...filtered for what you might be willing or unwilling to unload upon your class president.

Thanks for the thread, /qst/

Thanks art, just remember that there's always a tomorrow.

Thanks for the quest, Art!

Let's pursue for now.

And thanks for running!

Hey, sorry for the off-topic post OP but is there any chance of Witch's Magical Fetish Quest reviving?
>>
>>204334
Yes.
>>
>>204161
There is, I am just feeling personally discouraged by recent events, professionally. It throws a lot of plans being forged by necessity into the air.
>>
>>204835
Well, we hope you have a good Memorial Day at least. I'm sure you'll find a way through the current issues and come out better on the other side.
>>
So, what should we look into once we get the chance? Upgrades for our Knights, try to get Sasha to accept some kind of gear, a gun charm for Naru, or something else?
I could probably fill out a good dozen "something else"s, but not many I'd put a high priority on. Except maybe our own disguise widget with our planetary symbol and pass the Moon one on to sis.
>>
Not seeing nearly the amount of between-game chatter here compared to the other. This saddens me. I rather enjoyed that aspect.
>>
>>213783
perhaps that comes with moving over to QST. However we overlook that the board's slower speed means the thread may linger longer even with the 72 hour mark autosage.
>>
>>210651
I feel like Sasha really could pull off his intention to be a self-made puncher of evil, but I hope we can convince him to wear a bit of protection/disguise if he really intends on mixing it up. He's got a bear, a ghost sister, mad pugilism skills, and Azusa's got boxing gloves made of goldendreambearpunchforce that probably fit.. like a glove.

>>213783
>>214351
Maybe getting less traffic since we aren't trying to keep it from falling off the board as hard to keep chatting.
>>
>>214839
I am amused at the mental image that just formed of Sasha with Eclipse/Moolight garb, but in red.

Though that does raise a thought, if Mikage were designing something for him, what might it be like? Any callbacks to some of the magical girl comics that he enjoys that we could reference?
>>
>>214855
I just want you to know that your final sentence there has me laughing for reasons
>>
Also...when downtime happens I guess we gotta do crafting and I gotta more specifically look at item crafting rules. And then throw some of their convolution out the window because I haven't been using a gold standard wealth system and you'll have access to extremely good workspaces
