The store is big and dark, and it has more than a few crude graffitis lingering at the sides. The
main wall is made almost entirely from glass, at each side inside you can see stoic statues
without head or arms, some sporting only a particular set of limbs. Those aren't statues.
Those are Fakes. It's easy to say, because above the fancy sliding door at the entrance,
the black words "Make-a-Fake" bounce the bright light of the second floor's ceiling.

You are standing in front of it.

"The WAH doesn't count. It doesn't it. It doesn't bother." It's Trash, next to you, staring
at the entrance as well. "And it's also one cute motherfucker. It just adds to the cake."

"What if the ship comes after him?" you ask, quizzically. She "hmms", bitterly.

"It shares the mind of the ship;" she downcasts her eyes, frowning her lips. "If the
little thing doesn't hate us, then the ship won't either."

"What if it does?"

She turns, her eyes dimming, and smiles widely at you. "And why would it?"

You shrug.

Trash, then, clears her throat. "Vaal is exceedingly good at killing people, but she
lacks in almost everything else. Except acting. I don't like acting. If you want someone dead,
there you go." She yawns. "Preah is pure raw strenght and darklights. No GOG gas, sure, but
an Arma is an Arma, and Armas are extremely hard to kill. Still," she turns to face the store,
as people walk by the two of you and the smell of wet grass lingers around you, "I don't see her killing anyone." She pauses. "No offense."

You giggle. "Why would I? And... I do wonder, what is this place?"

"I don't think that's hard to guess, Toasty."

"Why are we here?"

"Ado's idea." she nods. "We are getting you an assistant."

(Cont!)
>>
"Knight can't talk," you hear as, with your mouth slightly open, you go through an aisle
reeking with Fake spare arms, it looks a bit grim "but those guys are just too damn good
piloting things, and It wouldn't surprise me at all if he could pull a few crazy stunts with that
armor." You find the aisle with every sort of eyes; one is as big as your whole hand. "That
freaky haremhorn with the musclehorn, somehow, has a fucking pulsar radar. You can
get one of those, of course, In the ship. And it would have to stay there. As far as their other
skills, well, I'm still kinda shocked I actually found a god damned musclehorns. I guess It
could use an anima suit with some practice."

You chance upon... wings. There's an aisle dedicated to wings for Fakes. Well, that's a
new one. Trash voice still haunts you from behind.

"We can't afford to fix Bravado's core. The thing isn't that big, but it's complex to a degree
that you actually need a whole team working two weeks straight just to dare a diagnosis.
Which is expensive. Very fucking expensive." Trash coughs, a bit too hard. It worries you.
"I've done my research though, and you can patch the guy up at least. Nitroliches are going
extint. It would be more sad if they didn't fucking stink so hard. As for the White Walker,
well, there's one very meaningful detail about him." You turn at her. She has almost one
whole finger up her nostril. Trash blinks. " QG stands for "Quirigical Gravity", it's using an
EKE field to extreme detail. You need a IVA-TA to use QG, He doesn't. And Horny was the only
other person I've ever met that didn't need the AD to use it. And that's one FUCKING detail,
in my opinion."

You just notice that the two of you are waiting in line behind a few other fancy people; it
makes you rise an eyebrow, for some reason.

"Now," Trash resumes, "you get to make a Fake the way you want it. Gender, shapes, hair
color, personality, aparent age, etc, etc, etc, etc. Don't make it look like me."
>>
>>693703
Oh, the possibilities...
We COULD just fuck with trash and make it look like her.
We could get us a butler...
...
Damn, so many ideas, so many decisions...
I can't even grasp the good ideas, just the average ones.
Question in the end is, what kind of assistant
do we NEED, and which one do we do NOT DESERVE?
...
There... isn't the possibility to create a himehorn fake... and by that extend a Broken Horn Leader Fake, is there?
... I'm a horrible Person .
>>
>>693736

>Them spoilers

I would like that too. Besides, we need a few horns in this quest
>>
>>693736
Oh right, I forgot to mention!

We are creating a fake right now, right?
What component is the reason for hidden protocols?

Maybe Keep an eye on the clerk, or check the wares before buying 'em.

You know what they say: Better save than sorry. (Not like we would find out if there is a hidden protocol installed or not, in case it was manipulated during the production... or for that matter, any other instance between production and selling.)
>>
>>693762
Idk about this universe but you basically have to destroy the chip to be 100% sure it had no hidden functionality added to it. It's a big problem defense contractors have with importing microchips.

>>693703
That said I have no idea about what to build for this Fake. Roomba is pretty capable of juggling tasks, maybe a body guard? We aren't exactly threatening either which might make it hard to deal with pirates as the captain. Hopefully this isn't too expensive...
>>
>>693703
Also, what about maximus, !#&#, and deino?
>>
>>693703
Come to think of it...
I have no idea how a "Make-a-Fake"-Shop works, but if it's like something compared to a clothing store, then we could just try parts, right?
So how about it?

Who knows, by any chance and dumb luck we might build a fake resembling Algis, or even more hilarious, Enna.

...Yeah, no. Not happening.
Though, if I were Roomba, I'd ask Trash what we need an assistant for. Sure, we might enjoy the company, but which position could our Fake fill in?
While we are at it, maybe search for the store-clerk, so we can get some more information.
Because, right now, I have no idea how this concept works. Not sure about Roomba, but I'd like to know.

If we get the choice to build, or at least TRY different Fakes, I'd like to propose a "something".
I'm feeling creative tonight.

An androgynous looking female.
A slender frame, toned, Not all that curvy. Maybe a bit taller than we are.
As for an hairstyle, no idea... Maybe something short, or that ponytail you see on pretty much every female anime character with a sword.
But if I were to choose the colour, I'd suggest a hint of vermillion... no, vermeil red. For the eyes, I'd suggest chartreuse yellow! It's a nice contrast. Skin tone would fit with a slight fair complexion, with a hint into the direction of a tan.
As for personality, I'd say something a little rougher than our attitude would help us in situations we cannot handle ourselfs, but still a very, let's say "gentleman"-like behavior. A good humour, as well as a little bit of cynicism, and we are about OK.
The age might vary, depending on Roombas age, maybe a bit older, maybe a bit younger.

As for all of these "etc."s, I couldn't think of em.
But this idea came from absolute boredom, a tendency to create 2 P&P characters a day, and, of course, a demonstration what is expected of Roomba...
I think?

...I may return, right after questioning what I'm doing with my life.
>>
>>694242
A two cheater a day habit? And here I my 3 theory builds a week was bad back in HS.

You know what? I could make some surveys and we could build a character's look together with my custom maid skills. Assuming we want to take the time for that and there are enough people to make it worth surveying
>>
>>694379
*Three character a day habit
>>
>>694379

Well, we didn't really had a lot of time to decide yet, and as it's such a monumental decision, I'm sure Haremhorn would understand that Roomba would need some time to decide.

Read as: Sure, let's do some surveys, but the question is, should we right now? Or should we wait for more activity? Where do we do the surveys? How can I properly install Custom Maid 3D 2, so I can create beautiful beings?
(Last one more of a rhetorical Question, as I already did everything which would be necessary.)
Harem returning in 'bout 2 hours.

And don't worry mate, it's just MAID RPG characters. They are always fun to do. Especially if you took the entire rulebook, and changed it all (not yet finished) to play Magical Girls in the PMMM setting. (Significantly influenced by MGNQ)
... And now I just noticed what I've been doing the past 8 month... Oh well, I regret nothing.
>>
>>693703

I'd like to hear why Trash likes the Trio so much, too.

And why she thinks we need an assistant?

And are we going to be here on the Second, or running the support centre from the ship?

Oh, and does the What not count towards the 6? Is that what Trash meant by >The WAH doesn't count. It doesn't it. It doesn't bother
>>
>>694928
Pretty sure that's what she meant. "Doesn't (ea)t, Doesn't bother (anyone)"

>>694523
Well last thread had like 9 posters in it, so I guess 5 would be a slightly optimistic number of voters, meaning 4 choices would be the most votes we could reasonably decide on (not counting ties). Body shape seems a good place to start with right? http://www.strawpoll.me/11418513
>>
You squint your eyes as Trash slowly yawns in front of you, and let the gears turn inside your
head. Slender, bulky, prideful, blue eyes, black eyes, green eyes, and stubborn; all sort of
atributes clash against each other. Yet one question rises from the ashes.

"But why?

"Hmm?"

"Why are making a Fake?"

"Becaaaause, it's free." From this angle behind her, it seems Trash is grinning. "The Suis owe
Ado big time, so he gets to nag them with goodies from time to time. But, mostly," she
turns her face at you, "cuz Fakes don't eat."

She turns away from you, and you both take one very synchronized step as the line moves
forward.

You "hmm". You wait up Trash's next yawn, then hover from her side.

"What about those three that came togueter?
Maximus, Deso, and !'%&, I recall?"

"Those, eeeeh, those know their shit." She scratches her head. "Maximus is big with capital
letters but clumsy, and has a diehard habit of tripping on things and falling off stairways, so
he always has his EKE on." She waves her hand back, her finger accidentaly scratching
your lip. "He's the team support. His job is to get Deso back to her feet. He's slow and a big
target. but great with EKEs." One more synchronized step; you stop yourself at the very
last second from steppnig over Trash's heel. "Then there's !'%&. The fuck uses a shotgun he
calls the "E-Magi", I don't know how it works at all, but it works with sound. So, well, he has this
terrible thing he calls "the banana", it basically screams harder than Mina. The guy is pretty
knowledgeable when it comes to anima, and information is one thing you should be on the
lookout since you won't have The Link anymore." She nods, hard. "That's why I got
you Moody; she's a walking enciclopedae of aircrafts. Finally, you have Deso, the muscle."
She pauses. "She's a Hand."
>>
>>695234
>"She's a Hand."

I may have just wet myself in terror.

Trash got some 'splainin' to do
>>
>>695234
"Oh. I can see why they might not want to share the bit of information to freely. What did you mean by Maximus getting Deso on her feet? Did she get injured?"

Well if the Fake is free... I'm sure we can figure out something or another! So Maximus is a brick wall, $&*# is a cowboy, and Deso is a cute little black hole. Well that certainly makes them more appealing!

If I took them who would I want to keep? Bravado's race going extinct would be a pretty terrible thing, I don't think we'll be fully able to stop it but maybe at least keep him going.. though the smell isn't a small factor. Preah would be the only one that could out match Deso in terms of damage dealing capability. Tough choices... Is it bad that I still like my original team pick?
>>
>>695382
Well, we agree on Bravado and Moody, which simplifies things. I'm leaning harder towards The Trio now. That info source and raw power is just two handy. And Trash is right, we need info.

Damnit I want Trash just to keep everyone focused and in line, but that Himehorn...that's gonna be something we could use.

Too bad we can't have them on call. Maybe we could offer them that sort of work. Contractor stuff.
>>
>>695411
Well we can give our new Fake friend some knowledge too I bet, to fill in some gaps.

Though I still think the himehorn isn't as useful, not with the cost of dealing with cyberhorn. If we've locked in Bravado and Moody and take the trio that just leaves room for Trash, unless we want to leave her bored after helping us and all...
>>
>>695455
True. Trash is in. We need someone we can rely on. She's it. She can work with Horns, she doesn't take crap and she can dish out violence, but smartly (I'm assuming, given what she's done previously-that takes brains or nukes)

Alas, I must sleep. Goodnight Haremhorn. Good night all.
>>
>>695382
You look hard into Trash's golden ponytail. "Oh." you mutter, finally. "I can see why they
might not want to share the bit of information to freel." You lean and notice that the desktop is at
hand. It almost feels spotting land from a stray boat. "What did you mean by Maximus getting
Deso on her feet? Did she get injured?"

"No, that's his job when they fight. If two dEKE
from anima suits touch each other they get even, and Maximus is really big so that's a lot of
dEKE to spare." You grab the ponytail. Trash glances at you from the side; you hold the
ponytail. "Weeeell, she was injured before. I don't know the details."

You both stop talking, and get back inside your head. After a while of wondering if Trash
actually went solid, you lean from behind her. A woman with long blue hair is arguing with the
Fake Sansui from behind the desk, who takes the yelling in stride as the woman gestures over
an over to... a Fake of herself.

You sigh. "I still don't know who to pick."

"Think it like this," says Trash's ponytail, "what are you going to face when you get down
there? Hands? Theys? Morons? Water? Shipwrecks? Ships? Accidents? Hurt people?"
The ponytail goes silent. Trash leans her neck back to look at you, her hair flowing down.
"There's a lot going on down there. Just try to figure out /how/ do you want to help. Can't do
everything, Roomba." As Trash straightens, you find that the both of you are public to the ongoing scene. You spot, thanks to ten millions years of progress, a faint grin in the Fake's mouth as the blue haired woman grabs her hair and shouts at him.
>>
>>695560
Not sure if it's a question or not.

As I see it, the goldenhair (wot), which was non-solid at some point (wot), is asking us on what we want to focus on.
Do we want to focus on fighting those forces which endanger those out there?
Or do we want to transport goods to those who are in need of them?
Maybe we will just do a towing service for those who cannot return on their own, for example when their ship went FUBAR.
In the end, it all comes down to the basics:

The probability of conflict is ever present, either from the outside, or inside the ships we try to rescue. We will need some, I repeat, some Combat experts for that.
Chances are that people will get hurt, so one medical expert is must have.
Finally, we will need a pilot who is also a navigator, means someone who can help us find what we need. Either with maps, or by sensing their surroundings to find the stuff we search for. Not sure which qualification is needed to pilot a ship, but it has to be a person. In doubt, we can buy equipment taking the role of the navigator.

While I'm rambling, might as well ask some questions related towards the "Build-your-Waifu"-Shop. What sort of knowledge do the Fakes have? Do they have any knowledge before being constructed? Can you decide on that? Are the personalities related to that? What kind of equipment can one Fake hold? What tools do they have here?
Those were the most informative questions, which need answers.

Now for the less important question:
Wings were mentioned, what other exotic add-ons are available? How does the energy consumption relate to the format of the Fake, both in terms of additional shit slapped onto the frame, as well as the overall frame itself?

I got some ideas, and will tell them once it's necessary. Until then I'll just leave this here so Haremhorn can answer these question.

Or Roomba can ask them Trash and a store clerk.
>>
>>696545
This post is great. =w=
>>
>>696545
>>Until then I'll just leave this here so Haremhorn can answer these question.

I'll give information regarding things in-Roomba knows already, mostly data that came already stored inside her. Answers to the same question will vary from character to character because of their motivations, sooo
>Or Roomba can ask them Trash and a store clerk.
is what you do when you want to know something new. Regardless!

>Wings were mentioned, what other exotic add-ons are available? How does the energy consumption relate to the format of the Fake, both in terms of additional shit slapped onto the frame, as well as the overall frame itself?

Roomba herself sacrifces strenght in favor of low energy consumption, since most of the tasks she was meant to do involve cleaning, cooking, hugging, etc. She has a lot of energy to spare but her frame is delicate, so even if she could power up a GETA cannon she wouldn't be able to aim it. Roomba doesn't know much about Fake parts, but her culinary skills are hard to match.

>What sort of knowledge do the Fakes have?
You get to choose that. Build-Your-Waifu has an extense library regarding common subjects to add into the Fake, along personality traits and even quirks. Keep in mind that, the more knowledge a Fake has, to more it takes to draw it out.

>Do they have any knowledge before being constructed?
Fakes are born with knowledge, it's like when you just wake up from a nap but without the nap.

>Can you decide on that?
Yup!

>Are the personalities related to that?
Yup!

>What kind of equipment can one Fake hold?
Fakes can't use dEKE fields, which makes them strictly weaker than the rest of everyone. dEKE stands for "Dynamic Elastic Kinetic Field" and should be dEKF but no one cares, and it's an EKE field that surrounds a certain frame and adapts as it moves. Other than that Build-your-Waifu has a catalog of Fake parts, and homemade parts with bizarre effect are not uncommon.

>What tools do they have here?
If you can power it up with electricity, a Fake can use it.

>Wings were mentioned, what other exotic add-ons are available?
Roomba only knows about wings, tails, and build-in rotors with helixes.

>How does the energy consumption relate to the format of the Fake, both in terms of additional shit slapped onto the frame, as well as the overall frame itself?
The core of the average Fake has a fixed energy production rate, you just stick things to it and it powers them up; the more you stick, the more energy they take. Some Fakes have spare parts attached into them in hibernation mode, and when they need them for some reason they just redirect the energy from other part into that one.

Just let me know If I forgot one!
>>
>>696601

Not you forgot one, but I did.

Is the clothing part of the Fakes, if not, where is the next boutique, or clothing article shop?
What kind of quality can we expect? How long do we need to reach the next "fancy" boutique?
>>
>>696630
Cute clothes are a must!

>>696601
We'll have to ask about anything interesting they have in terms of parts then. Also
>and build-in rotors with helixes.
So drills?

>>696545
Agree, the key slots seem to be:
>Self Defense(Trash, Maximus, Vaal, Preah, Deso)
>Medic (White walker, Bravado, or our Fake?)
>Navigation/recovery specialist (Inked, @#$% ?, *sigh* Cyber-horn? we might be able to build our Fake for this too)
>Ship mechanic/link substitute(s): (Lumina/Moody, Wah-rio, #%@%, or our Fake?)
>5th
>Designated asshole / 6th (Trash because we're not mean)

I'm going to call the body type poll here, so we're going with someone thin and perhaps a bit tall. A bit of a nice contrast to our short and pear shaped figure. Should I just make a bunch of polls and we vote on them all at once? Or would you all rather I just put together someone myself and present her for approval?
>>
>>696737
Not all to sure about the other people's participation, but I still got something up my selves.

First of, the personality:
http://ask.fm/Roombachan/answers/135844660286
If they have traits opposite to Roomba, they can balance out our weak points. While we try to help other people calm down, they will calculate the how we can handle the situation. While we stay to the facts of how any why something happened, they can think of how it might affect us. While we plan out our next moves, they will see through what we can do if things don't go as planned. And while we are Introverted, they can... actually, they too are introverted. Extroverted people just want to many... people around them. Not like we couldn't make them extroverted, but if they have a hidden protocol, it's better to have less people you run around with, leading to less the chance of decking someones face, and leading to less the chance of getting deconstructed for being defective or rogue.

So, conclusion to the rambling is this: INTP with the addition of Turbulent (-T).

Just saying though.

The most important part taken care of, let's continue to the less important ones. Like this:
http://ask.fm/Roombachan/answers/134487435326
How about 6 foot 2? It's tall enough to be intimidating to those who want to try and talk shit about us, (means whoever tries to threaten us) as well as grabbing something from the upper shelve won't be a problem anymore. And they are still small enough to not slap their forehead onto the door frame.


As for the exotics...
Wanna find out how many fox tails we can slap onto that bum before the clerk stops us?


... Although I cannot get rid of this feeling. This feeling of "Hey, how about a normal humanoid? No horns, no ears, no nothing. Just plain human."


Just considerations.
In the end, it is YOUR Waifu... No, bullshit on that, your ASSISTANT.
>>
>>696750
Interesting, you know Roomba is supposed to be an ISFJ? As for your suggestion, I'd personally suggest swapping the P for a J but that's just me...

6 foot 2 sounds good to me. Plenty tall enough without being a giant.

While >touch fluffy tail might sound nice I'm not sure we would want someone that stands out that much. It's going to be very hard to not push for her to wear glasses too
>>
>>696778
> Cynical, sarcasm, dark humour
Know what, let's do it! Change that P for a J!
>>
>>696601
I actually have only ONE more question.

But it will have to be Roomba doing the question.

Said question would be:
"Can we try on different parts or do we have to buy whatever we build?"

By logic, unless we don't break anything, we can try on everything.

You know, for shits and giggles.
Or more accurately, enjoying the little things.
Life is going to be hard enough the coming few days. Or weeks. Or month... Years...
>>
>>696848
Yeah, may as well have fun with it right? assuming we can. Hopefully the owe Ado big enough that we don't have to do much haggling or arm twisting to get exactly what we want.
>>
>>696856
We still gonna fuck with Trash if we get the permission to customize however we want?

That's priority one for me, coming even before >touch fluffy tail!
>>
>>696883
"So what hair style do you want? Oh I brought a friend as an example!"

Though I think I have a start on the look and personality. Particularly how Roomba would describe it and how she would get exactly what she asked for but not what she wanted. How do we feel about black hair? I'm thinking something halfway between a nadeshiko long and a himecut... I might just have to make it up in CM3D.

Funny you should mention black hair. When I was rolling for hair colour I got black too! Although I have a better idea. Hex Code #0D0001 . Maybe it's just me, but that slight red hue in there makes for a nice black tone.

As for the hairdo, I wouldn't go for something all to fluffy. Maybe give her a little edge in there too? Not sure, but the hair shouldn't be all to long. I mean, if the fake doesn't like her hairstyle (We never actually answered to this, but we ARE creating a female, right? Else it would be kinda weird.) she can change it anytime she wants.

Which brings us to the "final" and "problem".
Does she have a name, would she give one to herself, or shall we ruin her entire existence by making that decision?

Coming to an end with all of this rambling on creating the perfect counterpart, here your part of the work:
A face fitting her personality.
The clothing fitting to her face.
The clothing fitting to her personality.
And the posture to fit her overall.

We could implant that eye we "found" before, if she is the same compatibility as us. After we left the shop of course. Just gonna do a >Pic related. Just a something I was cooking up in 15 minutes (with interruptions)
>>
>>696931
By the by, just FMI, what would you say her personality should be?
All I could say, and mark my words, I'm not good with said ones (words), she would be kind of an arse, but not that much of an arse that you would just be fed up by her shit after 10 minutes.

But what do I know? First of, I suck at emotions and personalities, second of, she is ALL yours, I'm just the Igor in this play of Doktor Frankenstein.
"You realize you're risking both your lives? "
>>
>>696978
As for a name I was thinking Nielly (from the end of my tripcode NIE11y) Most people I know have a hard time thinking of a name to use for themselves so I'd think starting with one might be nice for her.

I was thinking tare-me (droopy eyes) and a heart or roundish face. Gentle looking features, but once animated create a bit of a condescending "Aren't you cute?" sort of neutral expression. Dark eye color. something that seems a bit formal for clothes, for some reason I see a simple kimono fitting well?

As for personality, quick witted (compared to Roomba's rather methodical consideration), often right though detached from the results (The kind of person most likely too say "I told you so" after you screwed up), intelligent in the theoretical sort of way (contrasted by Roomba's experience-trumps-theory mental model), somewhat morbid and dark in humor, not afraid of violating social norms, incredibly (annoyingly) independent, but also very trusting of people who prove themselves worthy of it. Low maintenance. Not very good at being delicate with people but fairly skilled at manipulating them via taunts and intimidation. _Very_ introverted. She'll be really easy to play, she's basically just me Her big merit will be that she'll be able to make snap decisions for us in unfamiliar scenarios, she won't always be right, but it'll be better than waiting until it's too late.

That eye probably came from a fake with a hidden protocol... maybe that's a bad idea
>>
>>697151

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TlfFXkds3xs

As this is my last contribution, as I have to depart now, let's just have one more idea. Wanna do me a favour?
In case you didn't come up with a name I was searching for some inspiration. You got a name now, it's a nice name.

But what about a last name?
Just as Roomba got her name from her production line ( http://ask.fm/Roombachan/answers/133728871230 ) how about giving the frame or core - or whatever part makes up the "person" in the fake - a designated name?

My suggestion? ήρεμα (read írema)! And now try to find out why the production line was called that!

I'll be seeing the finished product tomorrow then. And don't you dare forgetting to dick around with Trash, half of the personal, and most of the customers!
>>
>>697151

OK, all in all a very satisfying description, although woudn't consider her running around in a kimono all the time, and more for the use during her leisure time, or while of duty. During work times maybe a long coat? Or a trenchcoat.

Right now I can't imagine her look, but once you post a picture (go ahead, use the kimono, it's the first thing we will buy for her) and I can think of a fitting costume during work.

Also, determined by what she works AS, it would narrow it down even further.

I will investigate during my off time, and will return with a fitting outfit by... tomorrow?... evening?... GMT?

Well, this time for realsies, I'm off!

She's like daughter to me already. She is perfect.

>>Is the clothing part of the Fakes, if not, where is the next boutique, or clothing article shop?
It isn't. Usually, as in Roomba's case. While the first floor is thought of as a paradise of sorts, it's the second floor where everyone goes to get the goodies. Expect a lot of shops of every sort and shape, and of course, boutiques and clothing stores. Where's the next one? Most likely near!
>What kind of quality can we expect? How long do we need to reach the next "fancy" boutique?
It's mostly about how much you are willing to pay. The second floor is like a massive market, but the first has the highest quality items. And those are not even branded anymore, they are custom-made by artists with no pressure to make a living.
...you can still make do just fine with the second floor!

>So drills?
I screwed up that description. Let's just say some Fakes have a chopper for a head.


I've been pretty busy these days, but I'm keeping track of Nielly's progress at every step, and working on her personality! She should be done by now, and I think
>>697934
is a very satisfying design, mostly because of the contrast.

Finally, Roomba already knows the answer to
>"Can we try on different parts or do we have to buy whatever we build?"
,which is that some frames include particular kinds of compatibilities. Attaching a Sansui arm to a Crixas core, while doable, requires an adaptation process that usually involves welding to some degree. Simply put, if you want to get Fake parts on and off to test them, they have to share the brand.

Alright, I have returned for some last minute questioning.
One really makes you wonder how you can come from "what should she wear" to "what does she sound like".

So, what DOES she sound like?
First up, the overall volume:
From "Heard you talking shit about me" creepy whisper from behind
to "HEARTHER WITH A MEGAPHONE" WMD.

Secondly, the pitch:
From "Onii-sama!~" annoying loli shit
to "I gargle with liquid sandpaper, because acid doesn't do it for me anymore" abraded vocal cords.

On a side note, I'm really sorry but...
> The knowledge that you will save all of these people, stranded on sea.
> It fills you with DETERMINATION
Got a >Pic related to show the truth.
Maybe we could temper a bit more with the hairstyle. Maybe try to give it a little more edge, and less curve. If it doesn't look great, we can keep the look.
But don't expect me do NOT drop a comment about not giving her any knifes should you choose to keep the hair.
Just kidding, it's fine either way.

I have considered our choices, and I came to the conclusion that a fitting work attire would be the combination of:
>A Long- or Great coat
>A Polo Neck (Turtleneck for Americans)(No Green with Yellow stripes combination)
>And either a skirt of moderate length or just regular pants.
You have the final say, my mate. As an explanation, I couldn't get rid of this image in my head. Just a little more loose on her body.

Really hope you got something which is just as good as (maybe better than) that. The colour scheme Black/Gold/Purpure fits her though.

Also, nice to see that her hair DOES have that certain red shimmer to it.
>>
>>699455
>"HEATHER WITH A MEGAPHONE"
Far away across the sea, someone turns and wonders.

Also, should I describe the characters as much as the two of you are doing with Nielly? I usually just give a basic description and let the mind do the rest, to focus on the events of the story, but I wouldn't mind being specific at least in a out of story megapost!
>>
>>699508

Dunno.
The reason we are trying so hard,
at least from my perspective,
is so YOU know everything about her.

This is also the (possibly) only instance in which the PC has the option to create a character. So we have to make sure we pin down her everything.

As such, we are trying really hard, so you can handle her attitude and personality.

The only problem I see is not knowing which Ask.fm i have to spam full with questions FOR Nielly.

If you want to, you could use Pastebin to dump character information.

The only reason to do a out of story megapost would be answering specific questions, which cannot be asked via Ask.fm.

And if I'm talking out of my arse, feel free to correct me Nyan-mate.
>>
>>699455
Haha I can see the resemblance to fish from the front but from the back it's rather different, I'll have to post some more shots later today.

I think if she's not trying to make an impression she wouldn't give two fucks and would wear whatever, though I like the idea of a black turtleneck and jeans.

As for voice, certainly "I heard you where talking shit" quiet seems appropriate, though she's not above indignant yelling when people aren't listening. Simply by size she should have a bit lower of a voice but still plenty feminine, Roomba is a decent bit higher pitched in the "kindergarten teacher" sorry of way so it'll contrast nicely I think.
>>
>>699524
If you an really want I'll make her a separate ask page, but for now pester Roomba to ask her for you. But yeah, I agree it's all about the details
>>
>>699563
DO IT. I'll fill that with questions so hard.
>>
>>699588
See?
That's what i was talking about.

So, when are we continuing anyways?

As I see it, we are going for Trash, Maximus, Deso, Bravado (I'd prefere White walker, but ok), !'%& , Lumina/Moody, Wah-rio (?), and Nielly.
The what we will be doing can be determined once we go buying our ships.

... Right, only one question to go.
What do we want to equip Nielly with, in terms of equipment and add-ons? There probably isn't something as useful as that fake-himehorn's radar, but we can compensate, right?

Simply put, what will her part in the crew be?
>>
>>699605
This preparation arc will go on for as long as Roomba wants; otherwise she can just ask Trash to fill in the gaps. As for the moment, I'm still waiting for Roomba's answer. =w=
>>
>>699831
Well, I'm just throwing this out here:

Did Roomba ask Trash what we are are shopping for? Do we have a shopping list?

If not, she should ask her, just so we can prepare for the next couple of shops.

I suspect a hardware store (or wherever you get the equipment necessary), the dry docks (or docks in general), and... dunno... groceries?

Maybe we can have a map on the general area, so we know where to head to without running from A to C just to run form C to B, where we need to go to D, which would be closer to C and-

Well, don't need to tell me twice lol, I'll whip up some test images of her in those too. Trying to find the question you're waiting on an answer to
>>
>>699879
>>Did Roomba ask Trash what we are are shopping for? Do we have a shopping list?

Roomba didn't even know why they were there. And it's not like Trash tried to surprise her, either.

>>If not, she should ask her, just so we can prepare for the next couple of shops.
Roomba is letting Trash handle all of her economy. Also yes.

>>I suspect a hardware store (or wherever you get the equipment necessary), the dry docks (or docks in general), and... dunno... groceries?
Imagine there was one last shopping center in the whole wide world, as if you got all those that remained and clutched them all togueter. Pretty much, there's anything you could think of (if you know where to look). Those who remain in the second floor are those who sell.

>>Maybe we can have a map on the general area, so we know where to head to without running from A to C just to run form C to B, where we need to go to D, which would be closer to C and-
Trash actually got lost trying to get Roomba to Make-a-Fake, and ended up buying herself a burrito. There are a few maps scattered across the place, you can filter the shops by category to get where you want. Some of those pay the administration to be at the top of the list, so it's not alphabetically arranged.
>>
>>699896
Oh, there's no question, it's just as usual. =w=
You get a situation, you do what you want. Maybe I didn't notice the follow-up? One way or the other, I might not make it to the next post now. T__T
>>
Well, now all we have to do is wait for 'dem images. Right?

Using Witchdevice is suffering.
>pic related.
>>
I've been looking at some previous threads and questions, and realised two things.

First, where can we find low-risk investments? The more money, the more our ressources, which we can spend on the supportcenter.

Secondly, who of the templars (if I remember cirrrctly) can give access to "The Link"? Any representatives on the Second? Would we, at this moment, persade them into giving us access?
Not sure what the templars taught of the himehorn one.

At this point I'm just beginning to fathom all of these things we could and should get on the road before we depart.

"Allight, I think I've got it. The kind of fake I want is..."

Take a deep breath: "Someone quick witted, who can solve problems without having to go over all the details. Has good intuition. Trusts her friends but doesn't just trust anyone, maybe even a bit skeptical? Kinda quiet but not afraid to speak up about important things. She should be tall and lanky, have dark hair, cute freckles, and dark eyes. If she can know about fixing fakes and armas and ships and stuff, healing humans, and generally just be good at recovering from disasters that'd be great. Oh and like, some kinda martial arts program so she she stop people without hurting them too badly... I mean, if that's not asking too much and all!"

Smile at Trash like she's about to introduce us to a long lost sister.

Soon, you witness how the blue haired doppelganger is dragged across the floor,
towards the exit, by the woman as she yells in rage, her screams still lingering from afar way
longer than you expected them to. The Sansui just smirks towards the void; then turns towards
Trash, as the both of you walk up to him.

"So what's wrong with this one?" he rumbles.

You point at yourself; the Sansui shakes his
head.

Trash gets a hand over your shoulder, smiling very widely. "Fuck you. AND your haircut."

Which you try to spot, since the Sansui hair is messy black mass with no pattern you can put
togueter.

"She's here for the Fake." Trash crosses her arms, tilting her head a bit back. Sansui
whistles.

"Fakes making Fakes. Do you want her to call you "mommy"?"

"Um, I think I've nailed the description." You smile warmly at the Sansui, as you get a hand
to your nape. It visibly takes him aback, albeit slightly. "The kind of Fake I want is..."

You take a deep breath.

"Someone quick witted, who can solve problems without having to go over all the
details. Has good intuition. Trusts her friends, but doesn't just trust anyone, maybe even a bit
skeptical? Kinda quiet but not afraid to speak up about important things. She should be tall
and lanky, have dark hair, cute freckles, and dark eyes. If she can know about fixing Fakes
and Armas and ships and stuff, healing humans, and generally just be good at
recovering for disasters that'd be great. Oh and like, some kinda martial arts program so she
can stop people without hurting them too badly..." You stop. Your eyes dart from one side
to the other. "I mean, if that's not asking too much and all!"

You turn and smile widely at Trash, just like asking for a brand new Megazord.

Yet she's pouting, almost in panic. "That... sounds a lot like me."

The Sansui lifts a finger. "You are safe, she said "generally good at recovering from disasters."
and fucking look at you."

She sighs. "Then get me a drink." One of her eyes twitches.

"No." he turns to you. "What about the-"

He then just realizes that you grabbed his pencil, just as you finish doodling.. The picture
you present makes him whistle.

"Well your friend here might be the best customer I've ever had, I can't fuck this up."
Then he notices the OTHER paper. You hand it over to him, giddy. He reads it. "Bloody hell, I
can't believe "I heard you were talking shit" is a lot more specific than the crap I usually get." He
squints his eyes as he reads. "Well, the sweater and the pants are up to you."

"I was also wondering," you dare, then giggle hard, "would you happen to have more...
"exotic" Fake parts around here?"

He looks at Trash, who loos at him. "Like what?"

"Like fox tails?"

He frowns. Hard.

(Cont!)
>>
"Just what kind of shop do you... you... scoundrel..." a blunt sound helps you notice
Trash's cheeks about to burst, yet the Sansui's face is all red. "This is a respectable shop and
we deal with RESPECT!" he pauses. You open your mou- "Are we clear?!"

As you hear the customers behind you mumbling among themselves, you manage a
sad giggle as you look at him from below.

"Sorry. I didn't mean to be mean," you get a hand behind your head again, this time slowly,
"I'm still new to this, and the shop looks so pretty-"

"Shut up. Just hurry up and follow me." He opens the small door at the side of the desktop
then walks intothe big door behind him. You turn to Trash; she nods at you. As you both
follow him into the darkness, you don't fail to
notice, by the corner of your eye, another identical Sansui walking past you towards the
door you just left, mostly because he slapped your butt.

And soon he's in front of an enormous door, both you and Trash at each side of the Sansui.
This time, it's he that takes a deep breath.

"What th-"

"shh" the Sansui silences Trash, almost in anger; then takes another endless breath.

The door opens, swallowed by the ceiling. Illuminated by a dim, humble light, like those
that go through the leaves of a dense forest, you see dragon wings, cat ears, tails, fox tails,
big claws, a jar of fangs, clawed feet, horns of many kinds, claws, a folded maid outfit, angel
wings next to a halo... the list goes on and on, every item cleanly apart from each other in very
organized rows.

You slowly turn towards the Sansui, to no avail; for he is lost, his eyes wet shining thanks to the
refraction. Finally, he turns to you.

"Yes." he says, not looking straight at you, lost somewhere between your forehead and your
left cheek. "Yes.", he finishes.

You turn to Trash, who's shifting between incoherent rage and sheer fascination. There must be, at least, two hundred items over there.

means we do not want to leave without adding something.

Let's go with a classic.
The pronounced Canine Teeth

Nah. One fang is reserved for the wacky ones. She should have a fluffy tail she can slowly wag back and forth. Not a happy wag.

>>699605
which I forgot.
Remember Captain?
You know, the horned one?
The one who left the Greathorn?
Wasn't she ALSO applying to help others?
>>
>>704060
I don't think so. She was there to offer us one wish. She's a Himehorn, so is probably spending her time helping other horns. That's what White decreed when she took over as Leeder of the Greathorn. No horns go home.
>>
>>704071
Yeah, you were right.
But regarding the number of people we can get, Trash said this one thing
>Pick six, then we go get you a ship. You got until tomorrow. And I'm not included.
So Trash don't count towards the maximum, just as WAH-rio would, as well as Nielly.
>>
>>703248
... We really don't have any protocols for this do we? Just nod and go along. "Yes indeed. This will do nicely"

>>704076
I'm pretty sure that's Trash not included as in we still have to pick her, haremhorn correct me if I'm wrong
>>
>>705013

Her lips tilting in despair, Trash finally opens her mouth as she turns at the Sansui. Then closes
it. And when she opens it again, it's not at once that air manages to come out.

"IS THAT WHAT YOU FUCK'S BEEN DOING ALL THIS TIME," she inquires, politely,
"FETISH PARTS FOR FAKES?"

"Yes and fuck you." Sansui informs her, a kind smile blooming over his face. As he turns to
you, however, the lips twist into a frown as his eyebrows frown. "Pick anything you want, it's
on the house. Try to not overburden your, er," he reaches for the paper, his eyes dart across
the page, "Nielly, yes, with moe." He closes his eyes as you look at him, then takes yet another
of those deep breaths. "HOWEVER THERE IS A CONDITION TO THE FAKE, WE STICK
ONE OF THESE TO TRASH OR YOU OR NO FAKE, I'D BE THRICE FUCKED IF NO ONE
LEFT THIS ROOM MORE MOE THAN IT CAME."

"I'm telling Ado." You can /feel/ Trash's veins pulsing around her neck, her eyes small and
her hands shaking. "I'm telling Ado so, so fucking much, I-I'm not even joking right now,
I'm serious, I'm dead FUCKING serious," Trash nods frantically as she talks, "you
motherfuckers could have fixed the Chasm, found a way to stop the Angel, b-but, instead-
I-I-"

"The choice is yours." Sansui concludes, in a suddenly deep, strong voice.
>>
>>705700
"Oooh! You know you'd look really good with a golden kitsune set Trash... Kidding just kidding please don't murder me! I certainly wouldn't mind something cute though. Do you think the angel halo would be a bit much Trash? A cat tail might be a nice addition to my work uniform at The Whatever too..." Spend awhile thinking this over.

Sansui is right: Moe is serious business.
>>
>>705700
Ask Trash what the Angel and the Chasm are and why a fetish shop for fakes has to do with it.

>>705730
Oh Shit! Get cat ears for Roomba. We already helped a lot of people while wearing them and tending bar. It may help with recognition later if we run into patrons from the bar.

I mean... he IS a "One", right?
>>
>>705730
Hiding your eyes with your hair, you giggle. Slowly, slooowly and carefully, until you feel that
there's just no way Trash isn't looking at you. As you glance to your side, her gaping jaw
proves you right.

"Oooh! Yoou know you'd look really good with a golden kitsune set, Trash-"

"Don't do this to me, Roomba." She deadpans, smiling peacefully. "I'm 32 years old and very
vengeful."

You laugh whole-heartly as get a hand nex to your face and wave your fingers up and down.
"Kidding! Just kidding, please don't murder me!" Trash loses air. You walk up to the massive
storage, letting your eyes wander from item to item. "I certainly wouldn't mind something cute
though. Do you think the angel halo would be a bit much, Trash?" You point at it.

"I, um, guess It'll fit." She sighs. "I wouldn't go for it, though. People saying "I'm good, look at
me!" are often worse than Sansui."

You glance at her and "hmm", then study the items. Sansui's feet making tempo against the
floor draws your focus back, but only for a few seconds.

"A cat tail might be a nice addition to my work uniform at The Whatever too..."

Trash frowns her lips. "Are you going back into that shithole?"

"It wasn't that bad! It left me a few good stories." Something finally draws your attention;
it's a set of pajamas. "I wonder how I'd fit in those."

"Um, you don't want those because theeey would make you... looook... irresponsible!" She
nods, she nods. "And you'll run a Support Center, you've got to look the part!"

"Then how about that one?" you point at a cute cross-shaped helmet.

Trash swallows.

You just notice Sansui walking up to the parts. He picks one up, and presents it to you in a sort
of ritual.

"How about these?" You walk up to him, and grab a white horn with each hand.
>>
>>705790
You can slap Fake parts into anyone wearing an adapter! Articulated parts would require a control of sorts, though, and there are many ways to go about it.

>>705818
All Sansuis are Fakes, and as far as Preah told you they all share the same basic memories and passions.

>>Ask Trash what the Angel and the Chasm are and why a fetish shop for fakes has to do with it.
Roomba remembers that the Angel of Rivadavia is a strange, massive structure, considered an Anything, that wanders the world. All those that got within a certain range from it got their hearts blown in a flash. As for the relationship, it must be because all Sansui's stem from the same scientist that Leaderhorn killed back then, but she isn't sure about this.
>>
>>705910
Well...
Then we wouldn't be a nohorn anymore.
We certainly wouldn't be a fake-nohorn no more.
But considering that a nohorn with horns is a fakehorn...
Would putting those on make us a... fakefakehorn?

Gee willikers, don't know about you lot, but putting those on would most CERTAINLY be even more over the top than the angle one...

>>
>>706059
Well, as long no one else is around, I will just continue with my rambling about being the only non corrupted being here, and how I have brought us into this predicament.

>cross-shaped helmet
>Trash swallows

Let's see if I have potential to write as her:

"Umm... excuse me, but is this part of some kind of... armour?" Ask nicely, wait for an answer.
Taking the helmet, turn to Trash and plunk it onto her head.
Take a few steps back, and look her up and down.
"Wow, this really looks good on you! You should take that one!"

Turning back to the Sansui, just say:
"I think we will take this one."

And then watch as the spaghetti drops.
Or our head.
Whichever hits the floor first.

I want the horns! A cute horned angel to bring hopes and dreams to the world!

Well, we gotta ask more questions.

How easy is it to remove a part of a fake?
In terms of "Hey, could you give me a hand really quick?", that sorta way. (Preferably, we should be able to do that on our own.)

Does Trash already posses an adapter?
If not, it shall be on the house, so she can use Fake parts.
Maybe more useful ones in the future.
Like a second pair of arms... or...
I don't even know.

But right now, she will be a sufficient sacrifice.
SHE IS WORTHY TO WEAR THE HELMET!

Right now, in my opinion, we shall RESIST the Moe.
Besides, how can we become more moe than glasses? You cannot be more moe than the glasses.

(Is there also the option to just walk out of there? Cause really, we are way to deep in the Weeb right now. But maybe... we already are TO deep, and we cannot escape anymore.)
>>
>>707527

>>How easy is it to remove a part of a fake?
If the models share a brand, it should be as easy as unscrewing after pushing a button, otherwise they might be welded.

>>Does Trash already posses an adapter?
Roomba doesn't know, but she assumes Sansui has plenty to spare.

>>(Is there also the option to just walk out of there? Cause really, we are way to deep in the Weeb right now. But maybe... we already are TO deep, and we cannot escape anymore.)
Roomba recalls she has two legs under her waist.

Roomba is also thinking about the nature of adapters. They allow non-Fakes to use Fake parts by providing a joint for those to be attached to. Since the parts has no direct link with the Fake's memory core, non-Fakes manipulate them via controllers of many shapes and types.
