AND FLY WE SHALL!

...they never talked about landing, right?

>>18239058
Until now we scraped along the ground like rats, but from now on, we soar! Like eagles! Yeah! LIKE EAGLES...ON...POGO STICKS!!!

>>18239058

>>18239068
>cue Sora wo Kakeru Shoujo OP
Why was that the first thing that came to my mind...

You slowly float up, controlling the striker units much like you would your own saucers.

After rising about halfway up, you increase your rate of ascent.
You can now almost touch the ceiling, Erica flying just a few meters to your left.

"Erica, please do some basic maneuvers for Hayate to copy." Ursula tells her twin.
"Roger!"

She flies in a wide circuit around the room with you you following her every move.
She now makes a series of turns, much like a slalom skier, still you follow with no problems.

She flies in a corkscrew towards the floor, the rushing wind playing through her hair.
You fly the same spiral, maybe even tighter.

You follow her as she shoots straight back up to the ceiling.The two of you stopping there to await further instructions.

"Okay Erica, give him some room."
"Hayate, please feel free to do whatever you want. We will observe."


WAT DO OH MASTER BUTLERS?
[also roll for flyang skills]

>>18239058
Let's start with some basic flying back and forth to test the responsiveness of this prototype.

rolled 64 = 64

>>18239085
We shall SOAR!

rolled 33 = 33

>>18239085

Bounce Rood.

rolled 29 = 29

>>18239085
Butlers can fly, right?

rolled 69 = 69

>>18239085

Bounce.

Bounce like a fucking pogo-stick.

rolled 34 = 34

>>18239085
CONTROLLED CRASH!

>>18239076
>more like KATAWA SHOUJO op

>>18239101

>Dat line.
>Da roll.

Is it wrong that some part of me wants to ask Erica about kinky mid-air sex now?

rolled 45 = 45

>>18239107
Oh, was that a reference? I wouldn't know then, didn't read it and only know stuff a friend told me about.

rolled 78 = 78

>>18239076
>>18239107
Does nobody get Grim Fandango references anymore?

rolled 70 = 70

>>18239085
Do a barrel roll, and if we've got the space, an Immelmann.

>>18239090
>>18239101
You begin with some more maneuvers.
Slaloms, banking turns, barrel rolls, you did these with the grace of a flying schoolgirl with legs for planes.
You then gain as much altitude as you can to gather momentum.
With your back almost touching the stone ceiling, you begin falling.
Erica thinks something is wrong and tries to catch up to you, but your head-start won't allow her to.
With a look of terror on your face, you plummet straight towards Ursula.

Question:
Why is everyone still alive?
We got Madoka at the Buraeu. We made a song so powerful that everyone became depressed.
So why is there no Witch killing everyone?

>>18239134

BUT WE WANTED TO BOUNCE ROOD!

>>18239138
The song only covered our dorm. I think.

>>18239134
Prepare for impact, the best type of impact.

>>18239138
Wait, Madoka is at the Bureau?

Shit, I want to see Mayate meet Homura and Madoka. I'm interested in seeing what our swag does to both of them.

>>18239158
We already met Madoka briefly.
She was with Sakura and Nanoha.

Ironically, the age discussion wouldn't have happened had we gone for Madoka. She's 14, afaik.

>>18239140
We didn't roll high enough to pull it off right.


>>18239158
Has been the whole time. She's friends with Sakura and Nanoha. We just haven't seen her mentioned in ages.

>>18239134
With both leg units powering your descent, and gravity helping you along the way, you cover the distance from the ceiling and the floor quickly.

Just a few inches from Ursula's panicking face, you stop, a shit eating grin now on your face.
You give her a quick kiss on the forehead and look back at the witch that was scrambling to get you moments earlier, you stick your tongue out at Erica.

Ursula pushes you away with a grimace and a blush on her face. Erica glowers at you.

>>18239168
>>18239165
Damn, I must have missed it entirely.

>>18239170
That was a bit of a mean troll. We're gonna deserve what she does to us...or at least some of it.

>>18239170
Somewhat less than polite, bit of a dick move, but I suppose given the shit they make us do a tiny bit of pay back every now and then is deserved.

As you float back up to more suitable altitude, you see Erica take out a pair of pistols.
"That's how you want to play, huh? Very well. Let's see how well you dance."


****ROLL FOR EVASION***

rolled 95 = 95

>>18239200
Not the face, not the face.

>>18239206
Well, I was going to roll, and then I saw this. Good thing Ursula's work won't be damaged.

rolled 99 = 99

>>18239200

...you ass.

rolled 49 = 49

>>18239220
Fuck you.
Just FUCK YOU, you asshole.
Just because YOU want a low average doesn't mean that WE want it.

>>18239206
Alright, that's good. No need to roll more.

>>18239206
I am mre worried about the genitals
She has already proven her ability in bringing them pain

>>18239220
Why would you do that? No, seriously.

>>18239226
...
Why?

rolled 41 = 41

>>18239225
>>18239226
>>18239231
What? I rolled a hundred. Here's another, just for good luck!

rolled 28 = 28

>>18239239
>>18239220
DISREGARD ALL NOKO ROLLS.

>>18239239
>>18239220


Stealth roll, no way in hell that counts.

He has not mentioned average at all so why is everyone freaking out? As long as we avoid a 1 for the delicious HUEHUEHUE we are fine

>>18239206
>>18239212
"Guns?!" you call out to her.
"Just calm down... I'm sure we can talk this out."
She shoot you.
*SPLAT!* the paint slug hits you square on your belt buckle.
"Tsk! Missed!" you hear her say.

Sure it's not as dangerous as you thought it was, but still hurts like a bitch.
She's laughing now, that beautifully engaging laughter of hers ringing through the room.

She shoots again, you duck.
She keep firing at you with both guns.
You weave, turn, dive and spin to avoid the bullets.
"STAND STILL SO I CAN SHOOT YOU!"
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOPE!"
There are times when a butler... No, a man must simply bear with it.
But a shot to the crotch right now is not something you wish to experience.

rolled 55 = 55

>>18239245
>>18239250
Wow you guys get mad easy.
Here, 100% legit roll.

>>18239245
...you're not exactly helping.

You pull away from her with as much power you can squeeze out of the strikers.

When you gauge that you now have enough room, you pull an Immelmann turn.

Suddenly face to face with the one she's pursuing Erica is forced to stop. You in turn, stop mere inches from her face.

"I guess you felt left out huh?" you ask her as you also give her a kiss on the forehead.

That's when your right striker sputtered.

*ROLL FOR NOT ENDING UP IN THE INFIRMARY WITH NURSE FRANK*

It is a good pain
>>18239302

>>18239320
I don't think this one will be just HUE...

rolled 80 = 80

>>18239302

Well, we're scrwed

>>18239302
You woke up in a warm bed, the smell of disinfectant in the air.
You try and get up but your arms and legs are strapped down.

You know where you are.
You don't like where you are.
Struggling to loosen the straps, all you do is make the bed creak under your ministrations.

"Ohohohoho.... Looks like my patient is awake..."
It says as it walks into the room.
"You had a very bad fall there, you beautiful boy."
"It was a lucky thing your face was unhurt."
You try and scream, but no sound comes from your mouth.
"Don't worry.... I'll make you feel aaaaall better."
It takes out a thermometer, far too large to your liking.
"Now.. Let's take your temperature."

rolled 31 = 31

>>18239336

>>18239336
That was rather take for once.
Was expecting a catastrophic striker malfunction leading to our death

>>18239344
There are worse fates than death. We just found one.

>>18239344
Qhere do you think that thermometer is going?

>>18239344
Tame?
You call being abused by IT, tame?

>>18239363

>>18239363
Nowhere as bad as having out head ripped off or spine snapped or obliterated...

We still have a slim chance of escape

>>18239309
You falter and pitch forwards.
Luckily Erica, who's just mere inches from you catches you.

"Whoops. Looks like you busted it again teacakes." She says as she floats the two of you down.


As you settle back on the ground, and take off the striker units, you turn to Ursula.
"I'm sorry if I damaged them again..."
"No. These are prototypes after all, problems like these are to be expected."
"Once i have a fully working model, I will personally and happily give you a pair." she adds.

Rood walks up, the holograms still surrounding him, charts and bars all in the red.
"Seems like the capacitors burnt out. We will need to adjust the flow of majaik into the engines."
"Indeed." Ursula answers her mentor.

Ursula advises you and Erica to go on ahead, as she and Rood scan the data in depth.
"You'll find all of it terribly boring," she tells you "I'll just meet you back at the dorms later."
Erica and you concede to this and head back to the surface.

WAT DO OH MASTER BUTLERS?

rolled 65 = 65

Let's go see what's Shirou's up to. See if he's properly out of his Fudge mine funk.

>>18239393
Tell Erica we'll see her later, do our standard Ryu then Doctor trip and see her in 5 minutes, than decide what to do.

>>18239393
Go see Hina and see that she is ok, if she asks why we are there say she is from our dimension so we understand the shock of getting here and mike asked us to keep an eye on her.

Then go see Sousuke about that infinite candy bag
Then dinner with the twins

>>18239393
Break in the new bed?
"Properly", this time.

Either that or unveil the Fudgebunny statue.

>>18239404
And Nanoha if she isn't already having dinner with her friends

>>18239393
We need to make sure Hina isn't having any problems, and a Doctor visit is in order.

>>18239403
Oh yeah, alchemy lesson too.

rolled 12 = 12

>>18239393

How bout some more alchemy training?

>>18239393
Alchemy training!

Twirl~... twirl~... twirl~!

>>18239404
This after doctor / alchemy

In the elevator, you press the floor for Ryuu's place.
"I'm sorry Erica, but I want to report in with Ryuu for some quick lessons."
"Maybe you could keep Ted and Jakob company, they should be around."
"Aww... I wanted to break the bed in." she says with a pout.
She suddenly presses the emergency stop button and finds the lens for the security camera.
She blocks it off with another paint bullet.
"You know... I've not really paid you back for the last time in this elevator." She says as she pins you against the wall.


About half an hour later, you're walking down the corridor to Ryuu's bar and taking a quick swig of healing potion from your flask.

>>18239462
DAMNIT ERICA, WHY DO YOU HATE OUR WALLET SO MUCH

We really need to quote Protomen at some point.
"Hurry back, tell your leader you need more men."

>>18239462
She is getting herself a deduction there.
Just wish we had another tape to show for it

>>18239462
We'll say that Ursula insisted that we test out a new invention of hers, the projectile fluid electronic security intervention kit, and see if we can shift the blame sideways.

>>18239473
No, only she'll get fined for it.
She's the one that pressed the button and took out the camera afterall

You enter Ryuu's bar.
Johnny once again opens the door for you even before you knock.

"Good afternoon Ryuu." you greet your mentor as you take your usual seat at his bar.
"And a good afternoon to you too Hayate. How may I help you?"

>>18239511
I want to try to learn a few more recipes, I think I have a good handle on the ones I have learned so far

>>18239511
Alchemy lessons, I think I have a good grasp on the ones I've learned so far, also how much vermouth are you supposed to add to a martini?

rolled 30 = 30

"I hope you don't find this too forward... But I was wondering if you could teach me that gender-bending potion. It was what got me into alchemy after all."

>>18239527
> how much vermouth are you supposed to add to a martini?

How many grains of sand on the beach?

It's one of those questions that'll get you a different answer every time you ask.

>>18239532
He isn't going to just teach us the potion yet.

We have to try it urselves a bit more first

>>18239511
What's a good drink to make with apple cider

Yeah, let's make Apple Cider, and ask Horo to taste it, because the keeper of an Apple Shop knows best.

>>18239565
Learn to make good drinks with it then show it to Horo
Use that are our way in for her

>new potion
"Well, I feel like I've gotten the hang of the previous potions you've taught me. I was wondering if i could learn a new one."

"Oh. I was thinking the exact same thing." he answers you.
"I was considering on teaching you one of three potions. Maybe you'd like to pick out one for yourself..."

"I could teach you how to make a true Molotov Cocktail, a potion valued by our strike forces."
"I could also teach you to make a Lazy River, It incapacitates targets."
"There is also the Slider. Reduces any and all friction to zero upon application."

"Now which one would you want?"

ROLL 1d3
And say the potion you want.
If your roll matches the potion, you will learn it
1 molotov
2 lazy river
3 slider

>>18239573
Horo's with Lawrence. You really want to move on another guy's girl? That's not a classy sort of thing to do, in my opinion...

>>18239602
It's the other way around.
Lawrence is with Horo.

rolled 2 = 2

>>18239600
Cmon Slider, we can combine with Rebounder for HILARITY!

rolled 2 = 2

>>18239600
Slider, we can pull so many shenanigans with that, both in and out of combat.

rolled 2 = 2

>>18239600
MOLOTOV

rolled 3 = 3

Lazy River

rolled 1 = 1

Molotov. no questions.

>>18239615

Dice are boring... or date-rapey.

rolled 3 = 3

>>18239600
Slider

rolled 71 = 71

>>18239600
Molotov cocktail.

rolled 2 = 2

Hoping for slider but lazy river wouldn't be bad either

>>18239602
It won't be so much as moving in on her but if she decides our swag is as irresistible to her as it is to other girls then we won't complain

>>18239602
Is she though? LG didn't say whether they were or not

Can we create huge amounts of rebounders?
I'm all for using Shirou's space warping ability to re-create the Aperture Science Enrichment Center.

rolled 1 = 1

>>18239600
Sliiiiiiiiiideeeeeeeeer

>>18239665
We can make as much as we want within reason.
So remaking aperture science yeah
Coating the entire dorms in rebounder? No

>>18239625
Molotov it is.
Later on we might get the Slider for use in our Aperture clone.
We'll also need Glados and a potatoe.

>>18239625
Booooooooo

>>18239625
"If that Molotov Cocktail is similar to the weapon named as such, I'd like to learn it for my combat support role."
"Ah, an explosive potion. I'm not really big on potions that have very little non-combat applications, but I did develop this one on request from the forward teams."

You watch him take some vodka, some ice, and a long match.
He drops the ice into a tall glass and pours enough vodka to cover it. He begins to slowly stirring it with the long matchstick.

"For this, you will need any liquid of a relatively high alcohol content. Ice of equal volume to the alchohol, and a small amount of phosphorus."

"As for the emotions you will need, you will have to channel a feeling of explosive energy. Much like winning a race, or jumping off a plane. This memory, this emotion will provide the energy for the explosion itself."

He finishes stirring, and pulls out the match.
"Now, it may all seem very simple. But the key is channeling the emotion steadily enough to not have the half finished potion blow up in your face."

He flicks the match towards a nearby wall.
*BOOOM!* it explodes and leaves a small crater.
"Sorry about that Johnny" he tells his partner.
Johnny just quietly regenerates the damage.

he does as he's done countless times before and lets you in behind the bar.
"Okay Hayate, your turn."

**ROLL FOR POTION CRAFTING.**
WHAT EMOTION/MEMORY DO YOU USE?

>>18239625
Weakass choice.
We have much better abilities that do that already

rolled 5 = 5

>>18239706
Bouncing Ursula and Rood

>>18239707
We can hand these out to teammates/minions though.

Gai with a brace of these as a ranged backup, for example.

Still not as good an option as the others.

Memory used. First try of bunnymode and the pure speed we felt

rolled 38 = 38

>>18239706
Taking out the Aliens when we were in the Strike Witch Quest dimension. The excitement of time stopping from plane to plane and the final tea laser, putting everything we had into it.

rolled 37 = 37

>>18239706

We use the memory of our first escape from the Yakuza as well as the feeling that we no longer had to worry about our parents anymore, just Yakuzas.

rolled 9 = 9

Buying our bike.

rolled 35 = 35

The feel when we went to retrieve Bike-chan and the door was knocked

And LG has had power failure or cloud flare issues again?

>>18239795
You make that conclusions after a mere 15 minutes of his silence?

>>18239730
You remember the rush of destroying the swarm of aliens back at the witches base.
Using this as your base, you make the potion.
A controlled flow of emotion. No sudden outburst.
Just like Ryuu said.
After a few more stirs, you feel the liquid change.
It's ready.

You present it to Ryuu.
"Let's see..." he says as he lifts out the match.
"Johnny, can you generate something to protect yourself please?"
Armor plating manifests itself on one wall.
Ryuu flicks the match.
*BOOOM!* the explosion is considerably larger than his own.

"Very well done." he tells you. "Id hate to be on the receiving end of that one."

"Now let me tell you some things about this potion."
"It has the same explosive energy as the same amount of TNT. You can trigger it by impact, but only if you will it to. Relatively safe till armed."
"If you choose to not have it detonate on impact, you can will it to detonate up to a minute after application."
"Some teams have poured these into cracks into pipes for with great effect. One agent even carries a water pistol filled with it."
"I think this will help you greatly in your future as a combatant. Use it well.

"Thanks Ryuu." you tell him,
"Hey do you know any good cocktails that use apple cider? I have a few bottles stored somewhere and maybe you knew what i could do with them."

"Cider? I have just the thing. It's called the Steamy Apple. "

About an hour later you walk out of Ryuu's bar.


NEW POTION LEARNED.
WAT DO OH MASTER BUTLERS?

>>18239801

Anyway, let's go find Hina. We're apparently her mentor now.

>>18239801
Hang out with the Doctor?

>>18239801

>>18239808

>>18239801
Doktor.

>>18239807
After
>>18239813

YOu decide to check in with the doctor.

YOu walk through the medical wing towards the hallway where his blue box was situated.
You find it oddly missing when you arrive.
On a sign standing on it's spot, it reads [WILL BE BACK YESTERDAY].

"Are you looking for the doctor?" you hear Its voice behind you. "He's currently out.."
"Why don't you tell this nurse here what's ailing you?"

**ROLL FOR RUNNING THE FUCK AWAY**

"shitfuckpissniggercuntbadgerdicksnooooooooope!!!" you scream as you run full force down the hall and away from It.
"Waaaaaaaaaaait!!" you hear It call out to you, but it's too late. You're free.
Out in the sunlight, a place you're sure It will not follow, you catch your breath.

After a moment more, you decide look for Sousuke and maybe trade for his bag of candy.

**ROLL FOR FINDING SOUSUKE**
Your roll must be relatively close to mine

>>18239931
Aaand there we go!

>>18239931
Good job.

>>18239931
You look for Sousuke across the quad, And stumble upon him in the middle of the large lawn by the gates.

You literally stumbled on him.
He was wearing a well made gilly suit and full camouflage, laying in a ditch he dug in the lawn.

"How can I help you, Susan?" he asks as he slings the shotgun he was holding over his shoulder

>>18239957
>[✓] "Don't struggle. Just let it happen."

>>18239957
I was wondering if I could buy that infinite candy bag we got when we went to rescue Shirou from you. I was planning on giving it to a friend for her birthday

>>18239957
I'm not even going to ask why you're wearing a gilly suit and hiding in a ditch, though I am slightly curious, moving on. I'm wondering if you have any use for your bag-o-candy that Wonka gave us. I'd like to trade some object in my possession or service I can provide for it. I have a few possessions of value and I can run, plan, organize, and cater anything from a small dinner to a giant gala among my other numerous talents.

>>18239975
>service I can provide
Nooo!

>>18239971
This.

Though now that we've worked out some of our initial problems, should we reintroduce ourselves with our real name?

If anyone else in our class can understand the need for a cover identity, it'll be Sousuke.

>>18239985
Y'know, in hindsight I admit that bit probably could have been stated a bit better.

>>18239987
Yeah he earnt it, and if anyone can understand how fucked up his history was it is Sousuke

>>18239987
Yeah, do this.
Then ask about unlimited candy works bag.

"I'm not even going to ask why you're wearing a gilly suit and hiding in a ditch, though I am slightly curious, moving on." you tell him "I'm wondering if you have any use for your bag-o-candy that Wonka gave us. I'd like to trade some object in my possession or service I can provide for it. I have a few possessions of value and I can run, plan, organize, and cater anything from a small dinner to a giant gala among my other numerous talents."
"That bag of candy? I have no fondness for sweets. I will be glad to trade it to you"
"What would you like in return?" you ask.
"A couple of loaves of french bread, and a pack of water purifying pills."
"That's it?"
"Yes. That is all I require."
"Tell you what. I will give you 3 loaves of bread per day, freshly baked, for a week. And those pills you need."
"You have yourself a deal." he hands you his unopened bag-o-sweets "Just drop off the bread and pills at my room later."
"I must return to ensuring the security of the gates."
He says as he settles back down into his ditch, once again becoming almost invisible.


2nd bag-o-sweets acquired.
WAT DO NAO OH MASTER BUTLERS?

>>18240023
Find Hina.

>>18240023
Either Hina or dinner with the girls
More inclined to go see Hina even though she will probably misunderstand it

>>18240023
Either bring up the name thing, or call Hina.

>>18240023
Tell him our name, he just did us a big favor and he'll be understanding. Seek out Hina, after Hina dinner with all our ladies, tell them about the therapy thing.

>>18240023
So we majaiking the French bread or are we just gonna have Pantasia do it for us?

>>18240023
Well, we can bring up the name thing after our training session in the mountains.

For now, check up on Hina, like Mike asked us to, and then dinner with Nanoha and the Twins.

>>18240023
Tell him our name in the morning when we drop the bread off.
He is busy now

Go find Hina have our comedic misunderstandings talk and then go have dinner with the girls

>>18240043
Fresh-baked. It doesn't mean as much if we just pull it out of thin air.

>>18240057
That was what I thought, he did us a big favour since now we have birthday presents for Erica and Sakura.

We should find something nice for Hina for white day as well while we are thinking about her, we might not be pursuing her full speed but it still would be nice for her to have a few nice semi normal things happen

>>18240082
Just a little bag of little white chocolate hearts.
Giri-choco, in other words.

>>18240043
We should probably make it ourselves from scratch, we can use their ovens though, I'm sure they wouldn't mind.

>>18240103
What if we have Kraus turn into an oven, and we make 5 loaves instead of 3? 3 for Sousuke, and 2 for our girls who get to wake up to the smell of fresh-baked bread?

>>18240103
Now that might be a little much; 3 loaves a day for a week?

You wanted to tell him your real name, but it seems he is far too busy now.
You decide to tell him in the morning.

Remembering Mike's request look out for Hina, you decide to check in with her.
'Hey Hina.' you call out to her in your mind 'are you free?'
'W-who is this? A-re you peeping in through the w-windows? I-I'll kill you!' she answers.

'No. It's me Hayate. I'm linked to your mind by our Devices.'
'I-i thought only the instructors could do t-that. Are you sure you c-cant see me?'
'Of course not. I can only hear your voice in my head. So, can we talk?'
'M-meet me at the dorm's entrance in five minutes.' and the connection goes dead.

>>18240129
Sousuke loves his bread

>>18240126
That doesn't sound too bad but baking bread is a slow process if done properly

>>18240103
we would probably end up sticking something else in the girl working there's oven as well

>>18240132
She's reaaaally high-strung.

>>18240138
>Sousuke loves his bread
INDEED.

>>18240132
I guess the first thing we talk about is how mental User-Device-Device-User communication works, that it's just like a cellphone and is in fact the cellphone equivalent for the Bureau.

>>18240158
She was changing when you contacted her.
Having a guy suddenly talk to you while you're in your panties would be surprising to girl that's lived a normal life up till a few weeks ago

>>18240169
We have the best timing

>>18240169
Hrm. Devices need ringtones.

You wait for her as she said by the dorm's entrance.
She comes down to meet you wearing a tracksuit.
"So. what did you want?" she asks

>>18240169
Not to mention a guy you have weird conflicting feelings about due to hs actions

rolled 32 = 32

>>18240169
I love when guys talk to me while im in my panties.

>>18240200
Conjure a small table setting and some tea
To see how you were, it is a big change going from our dimension to this.

Also we didn't really finish our conversation this morning so I was wondering if you wanted to continue

rolled 95 = 95

>>18240200
Ask her if she was about to do something, and if were bothering her.
If not, tell her about the Device communication feature, and ask how she's adjusting to the Bureau

>>18240200
Just tell her what Mike asked to do.
Also, is she going jogging? Maybe we could join her.

>>18240221
Pretty much this.

WaitingforLG.jpg

So what do guys think we will pick up as our next minion / cute animal companion?

>>18240223
>>18240221
"Oh, nothing I just wanted to check in on you. We're you just about to go out? I'm sorry if I'm bothering you."
"I was just about to go run for a bit to town and back." she answers.
"Well then, perhaps I could join you."
"Sure. go ahead... But are you gonna run in a skirt?"
"Ah, yes. I really should change out of these now. My punishment has just ended after all."
You use Kraus to materialize your butler suit.
"You're running in that?"
"Of course, I find this outfit very comfortable."
"Okay then..." she says as she heads off, with you keeping pace.

"How do you do that telepathy thing you just did? I thought only the trainers and handlers could do it." she asks you.
"That? oh, anyone could do it, Just ask your Device to link you up through another person's Device. It works much like a cellphone would. You could also send Images and files through the link."
'Like this?' she asks you mentally.
'Exactly.' you respond.

And you keep running

>>18240339
Some kind of clockwork automaton with a clock for a face whose hands constantly droop into a bully moustache.

>>18240339
A cat. We can send it home with Perrine so she's got someone to talk to who actually likes her. They can be snooty and insufferable together.

>>18240352
'I sometimes send people messages like this in class, too. I did it earlier, when you asked about my relationship anxieties. Remember?'

"How are you adjusting to all of this, by the way? My first few days here I felt really lost. It took some serious getting used to."

>>18240352
So what sort of AI personality did you end up with? I apparently got a weird one for Kraus because he swears constantly and seems to not understand volume control

>>18240369
I like it. Splitting the conversation between mental and verbal. I wonder if we could do them both simultaneously.

"I was wondering how you were adjusting to the Bureau." you ask her as you make your way into town.
"How are you holding up in all this craziness?"

"Well, it's pretty mind-blowing to tell the truth. But I guess I'm coping just fine. The people are nice, and the lessons are pretty engaging. The Nurse creeps me out a lot though."
"It creeps me out too."
"It?"
"Yes, IT."

You arrive at the park, she's showing the effects of the long-ish run already, you on the other hand have not broken a sweat at all.
"How can you do that? In a full suit no less?" she asks as she takes a breather on a bench in the park.
"I train since child." you tell her in a mock brute voice.
"Let's just take a quick break..." she tells you.

BREAK, IN THE PARK.
WAT DO?

>>18240401
Conjure up a blanket, a pitcher of lemonade, and some glasses. Also, this:
>>18240369
Point out that we've actually communicated with her mentally before now, just probably without her realizing.

>>18240401
Majaik up some refreshments

Also dat picture

>>18240401
Give her a little cup of Pocari Sweat or Aquarion, some sports drink, to help her recover.

"So, what sort of personality does Muramasa have? Kraus can be...a little uncouth at times."

>>18240443
Good choice.
Pocari might taste a little weird but it is a great drink for when you are exercising

>>18240411
Heh, mini-picnic. That's so Hayate.

Before doing picnics to others shouldn't we first do one for Sakura and Nanoha?

>>18240481
We really need to get around to that

After we get back from town.

>>18240481
We did promise Sakura a picnic just for her and her friends. Maybe tomorrow after class?

We could do milk tea, strawberry sandwiches, some cookies, strawberry shortcake, and parfaits for desert.

>>18240506
It was her Nanoha and Madoka we offered it to but we did say her friends in general

>>18240401
"you know," you tell her as you produce a pitcher of iced tea and some glasses "I actually talked to you mentally before, earlier in class."
"That was a mental message? It was so clear I thought you said it with your mouth."
'You'll get used to it eventually' you tell her with your mind.

"Anyway, I was wondering, what personality does your Device have? Kraus here, seems to be always angry and lacks volume control."
"I AM NOT ANGRY YOU CUNTRAG, I AM ONLY VEHEMENTLY EXPRESSING MYSELF. AND I AM NOT LOUD, I AM FUCKING VOCIFEROUS."

"... Well, Masamune here says almost nothing at all, he's very very formal to boot."
"Greetings." her badge says as she takes it out.
"I guess Devices' personalities really are diverse."

"So..." she continues as she puts down her empty glass. "I talked to Erica. She's filled me in quite a bit on your whole situation."
"I'm glad she was able to enlighten you some more."

"Though I'm sure it's none of my business whatever you and those girls do, It still doesnt sit right with me."

"Tell me, when do you plan to stop? Do you plan to add more and more women to your fold as long as they want in?"

>>18240526
Provided the others are receptive of it yes. I would die before denying another the happiness I have sought my entire life.

>>18240526
"I haven't thought that far in advance, really. This is all pretty new to me. I think, though, as long as a girl wants to try it and the others are okay with it, I'll allow it. Until I start wearing myself too thin or the women I care about object to a specific person, I think that's good enough. Why, do you have any suggestions?"

>>18240554

actually I may have been a bit too strong with that if you use it maybe reel it in a bit.

>>18240526
"So long as the women who already have me don't object. I've spent too long alone; I won't deny companionship to anyone who seeks it."

>>18240561
I like this one, but all of the answers so far are pretty close to the same thing.

>>18240526
"As far as I am aware, I have not 'added' any females or males to my 'fold', they have all grouped on and done terrible, terrible things."
>Erica's Feet PTSD

>>18240580
Maybe LG will be able to amalgamate them into a pretty straight forward answer

>>18240526
"So long as the women who already have me don't object, they would be welcomed." you answer her whole heartedly.
"I've spent too much time being alone in the past, and i know just how hard loneliness could be.; I won't deny companionship to anyone who seeks it."

She grows silent with your response.
The look on her face showing that she's thinking something over.
Afeter a few minutes, she finally asks.
"T-then... Could I be a part of it?"

>>18240526
I honestly had never thought about it.

I spent most of my life uncared for and quite a large part of it alone, I know how cold the world can seem when there is no one there for you so wherever possible I want to prevent others from feeling that. The girls are happy with the situation and that is what I care about as long as they are happy i will keep going.

I never really thought I would ever find one person who loved me, and I have found 3 already and i couldn't bring myself to hurt any of them and luckily enough they have not forced me to.

As for how far it goes, that is up to them. I would of been more than happy to stay as it was but should circumstances change and others do come along I certainly won't refuse the,

>>18240606
If you want to be, and the girls are ok with it

>>18240606
"Of course. Come by my room tonight and me, you, Erica, Ursula, and Nanoha will talk about it."

>>18240606
>"T-then... Could I be a part of it?"
That's unexpected.
At least she doesn't intend on stopping us anymore.

But tell her that the girls need to be ok with it.

>>18240606
"Is that what you talked to Erica about?"

If she answers yes then so do we, if not then we ask her to allow us to speak to the others first before letting her in.

>>18240606

"...I guess? I wouldn't object, but you better ask the other girls first."

At this rate Hayate us gonna wear his junk out

>>18240606
"Of course, provided Erica, Ursula, and Nanoha don't object."

>>18240606

"you would have to discuss your desire with the ladies, i myself would have no objection."

and then we butler onward!

"Master Hayate, gave me and Master Ted free leave today. It feels good to stretch our feet and be in the sun."
"We spent most of the morning sunbathing behind the gym, the sun's rays invigorating Master Ted and I quite nicely."

"At lunch we met the Director in the library, she seems like an ordinary nice young girl, if a bit on the shy side. She talked to Ted, and read with us as we sat in a nice sunny couch by one of the large windows."

>>18240663
Shit now our minions are acting as wingmen?

>>18240633
Is it just me, or has the rate at which girls are attracted to Hayate and ask to be let into his bed increased recently?
It's starting to exert a gravity-like effect; the more girls there are, the faster and stronger additional girls are attracted.

>>18240682
I think they found out it's open for additions so they are lining up now

>>18240675
Ted cant be a wingman yet, he's millions of years of evolution away from wings.

>>18240708
Not really.
Big dinosaurs were closer to birds and their arms had feathers,

So he could be a proto wing man?

>>18240708

clever boy.

>>18240708
...okay, I chuckled.

HE CAN BE OUR REPTILEMAN THEN

"After having a magnificent time with the Director in the library, My good man Jakob and I went down to the town."
"I, in my smaller body, and Jakob in his tiny dashing suit, proved to be quite the spectacle."
"Ladies you come up to us and say hello, children would want to play with us."
"We of course obliged them as much as we could."
"I am sure that Jakob and I both had a jolly good time."
"We must thank our good friend Hayate for this later."

Okay, so, I suggest we spend some more time with Nanoha today, make sure that she feels loved as well.
Dinner with the ladies, a relaxing time afterwards, and then to bed.

>>18240721
But dinosaurs aren't reptiles!

>>18240724
Oh man that picture is great

You are Sakura Kinomoto, wielder of the cards of Clow.
And you just love sweet things.

You found out that Pantasia was having a cake festival today.
Madoka, Nanoha and you checked it out after classes.
After purchasing some amazing looking cakes, the three of you walk around to see the other shops.
As you were walking out of the really cute Teddybear store you see Hayate and Hina-oneechan jogging into the park.
They looked like they were having fun.

>>18240790
Oh goddamned, we're going to have to do damage control on Nanoha, aren't we?

>>18240821
Nah, we will tell her Mike asked us to make sure she was settling in ok.

Once she finds out Hina wants to join in on our little group then we will

>>18240835
Hm..good point.
Though I think we owe it to Nanoha to spend some more time with her. Simple things, like walking with her, talking with her, holding hands. The things that she wants.

NEXT TIME ON MSQ:
What tangled webs we weave

New thread again will be late
[still have to work some papers outside of the office.]
Check in at around 2300-ish.

>Dropping it here for tonight.
>Need energy to spar with the fuckers at BIR tomorrow

>>18240855
If that four year timeskip thing happens we'll have to talk the Doctor into giving Hayate and her a week vacation somewhere.

>>18240868
Woo new next time picture

Ok so what kunnin plans shall we make tonight?
( been playing orks on DoW too much, as a result now speaking 50% orky )

>>18240874
It won't happen unless we trigger the right flags for LG.
Personally I would rather avoid it and have time jumps in smaller amounts

Yeah because god dammit I love Nanoha the way she is.
Let's just wait without wibbly wobby timey wimeys.

>>18240868
>What tangled webs we weave
That title is just asking for trouble.

WE FORGOT TO ASK ERICA ABOUT THE ADDITIONAL WITCHES!

>>18240868
That's the maid from Hayate's world right?
Let's add her.

>>18240885
Well, we shouldn't make any moves on Hina in the park. Hayate doesn't know how the other girls feel about including Hina, so I think we can stay a little cagey in-character and have it work.

If Sakura, Madoka, and Nanoha come over, then we can explain that Mike asked us to look out for Hina, since we're from the same Dimension and such. That'll defuse Nanoha until later when Hina can asks if she can join.

Maybe we can have a walk together with Nanoha before dinner, ask her how advanced classes are going, and such.

>>18240924
She won't know yet I think, and anyway she would rather troll us with it

>>18240938
This sounds like a good idea. Avoid befriending the entire town surrounds as much as possible

>>18240885
Well we've got incoming in the form of errbody reactin' to Hina, The Hound of Gaul on approach, Keima being soft gay, long term possibilities with the Director, and all our magic and training and shit.

Hinareactions are probably first up, then we deal with training and graduating to advanced class and keep up on the Keima trolling.

Also I'd rather avoid the Nahona timeskip thing if possible. We can probably find a smoother way to deal with that.

>>18240957
I think it is pretty much a last ditch assholes complaining about us being a Pedo for dating her move.

Personally I prefer the idea of them having a slower relationship, it's nice for a change. And having such a massive time skip for her but not us would change lots about her that would have to be considered

We must give Jun a waterpistol with Molotov Cocktail in it.
Imagine his thread coated in that shit.

Hell, have Gai coat his fists and feet with it.
For protection, a layer of Rebounder and then the Molotov.

Erica with a mist bottle of the stuff? FUCKING NAPALM

>>18240982
>For protection, a layer of Rebounder and then the Molotov.
...That's something we must try.
I think we just expanded our support role greatly.

>>18240982
With the explosive properties of Molotov it might be dangerous to have Gai punch with it.

Pretty sure we can do better than just a water pistol for jun. maybe a flask or bottle under pressure?

Erica as a napalm bomber is fucking awesome though 100% that

>>18241013
Pressure washer.

>>18241013
>Pretty sure we can do better than just a water pistol for jun. maybe a flask or bottle under pressure?
Did you never play with water pistols as a child?
"Bottle under pressure" is a good descriptor for most of the non-shit models.

Speaking of rebounder.
If we coat a tray with it and throw it...
We have captain america's ricochet shield.

Molotov + cup equals a shaped charge
Molotov + a way to mount a large enough spray mechanism on Ted = battle rex

>>18240982
Or give some in vials to Shinku for lolmirrorambush all day.

Provided we actually run into enemies that are cool to explode and all.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Super_Soaker
Here, for all of the uneducated.

I'm voting for a backpack of holding filled with Molotov Cocktail. We'll need to create a shitton of the stuff, but it will be worth it.
Use simple pump-action to pressurize it. Use a backpack capable of withstanding high pressure.
Hell, maybe me can ask Ursula to create a Maijak pressurizer.

>>18241010
Rebounder should put all of the energy of the explosion towards the target.
It would be like shaped charge punches.


Molotov + amazoness arrows Exploding arrows.
Molotov + time stop? JESUS CHRIST.
Coat someone with it, and then explode them from a safe distance.

I say we swap out the contents of the flask for 1 liter molotov, 1 liter healing potion, 1 liter rebounder

>>18241043
Or you know, use an engine. Paint sprayers and power washers and shit already exist.

>>18241021
Water pistols I had as a kid could barely shoot a foot and broke after about 5 minutes.

>>18241035
Now that is just cruel but combined with
>>18241024
Cup someone have shinku dump molotov in there BOOM
much easier than mucking about trying to summon one then coat it

>>18241043
a flame thrower that fires delayed explosions?
WANT

>>18241058
How about markers?
Just fill paintballs with the stuff. You can explode bouncers on proximity.

>>18241069
mini rapid fire grenades?
WANT

Shit is pretty much a bolter
Lets pick up a paintball gun.

>>18241069
Now that is a nice idea we could even use them for anti air fire

>>18241043
Actually, the new Nerf lines of Super Soakers use detachable magazines.

>>18241069
Now that's a great idea. It'll require a lot of prep-work, but it's essentially a rapid-fire mini-grenade launcher.
Hell, Sagara might want one as well, if we can get it to work.

and you fuckers wanted the Slider.
Let's just roll that one for a next time.
Also we need to get another flask of holding, maybe a larger one.

>>18241094
I think Sousuke would cream himself over something like that, it would be like the bet Christmas present ever for the guy.

We are gonna need lots of booze... Think Kraus can make moonshine by the barrel?

>>18241097
I consider the slider and rebounder both to be retarded in the context of this RPG.
But the Molotov is fucking awesome.

>>18241097
Well slider has more trolling potential.
I was curious about lazy river though

>>18241110
I think they have great potential for use it just requires us to be more dickish in our planning.

I would of loved to bouncy castle Vtia for example

Ok, so we are using pressurized gas to shoot the bullets at about 300kph...
These things aren't very precise, but the rate of fire is fucking good.

What we now need is a way to extend the lifetime of our gas. Some kind of Majaik to restore pressure.
We also need to do something about the matter of reloading. I don't think a canister of holding would be a good idea, because the amount of balls would cause the stuff to be crushed inside of the container.

>>18241134
Regular paintball guns seem to work well enough. We can shoot already lasers and shit but they'd be great defensive weapons for Jun and Keima

>>18241134
Multiple smaller canisters
Not as effective but a mechanism for quick release and reload would serve our purposes.

And in a pinch we can use them to make one hell of a grenade

>>18241149
Well, from my experience (about two hours of paintball fights) I'd say that the magazine size and reloading in the field is the biggest issue. Also, you can't shoot while upside down.

Seriously, reloading (especially with gloves) is a fucking pain in the ass.

>>18241154
>Bag of sealed canisters
>Connect cleanly with paintball gun for long range spray supressive explosive fire
>Enemy in throwing distance? GRENADE!

Fuck, this is fucking versatile.
I wonder if the Buraeu people already thought of that... We might get a promotion for creativity.

>>18241160
If they need more than the 200 exploding paintballs that fit in the hopper then we probably have bigger problems.

>>18241180
Well, our explosives only equal TNT strength.
I wonder if it's about volume or about mass. Might the liquid be denser?

We also need to be equipped for all occasions. Easy reloading will save our ass in case of large-scale engagements.

Let's see if we can get the bureau to manufacture our grenades in greater quantities...

Why do I get the feeling we are going to end up teaching at the bureau and being sort of a teacher that can do everything to some degree?

>>18241260
Because butlers are just that awesome.

When we get to Nanoha and Sakura, we should ask them if they are available for the picnic later today, if they wish.

>>18241170
Kind of like Humanity invented Carriers in Mass Effect

>>18241260
Isn't that awesome?
Nanoha is combat instructor. We are jack of all trades with weird specialist knowledge. Keima teaches tactics. Sousuke helps out special ops...
Or something like that.

We'll be the Janitor, then.

>>18241394
Well, Janitor and Butler aren't that much apart...

We will need to harass MC-type characters, though. To take their ego down a notch and to give everyone a good laugh.

>>18241297
Hmm...they DID just pick up some cakes at Pantasia.

I'm just worried about the time.
Like, if it's past 6, it might be better to arrange for a picnic tomorrow at lunch, or this coming weekend.

>>18241363
Erica would probably be technically a teacher or handler but probably be pretty lazy about it.

Ursula would still be in R&D only as the head of the magitech division

Shirou would either be on disability pension for severe retardedness or in the armory

Hina would be a disciplinary officer

>>18241403
So anyone who reminds us too much of ourselves and anyone who looks like a SUE in the making?

>>18241445
Exactly.
We well also learn how to control our SWAG.
We will use it selectively to play pranks on the MCs. Our SWAG will prevent us from ever getting into trouble.

And if someone is in serious need for a shoulder to cry on, we will help them with our extreme experience. Or send them to Ryuu.

>>18241463
I think we will be a more mobile Ryuu by this time.
He will probably still live in his bar down near R&D

Damnit we needed slipper. Mixed with rebounder we achieve epic prowess, mixed with the twins.... oh my yes.

>>18241895
slipper on our feet and reounder on our hands, all we need to do is learn how to iceskate so we can control ourselves and we'll be beasts of unstopable mobility

>>18242210
But wouldn't that actually be terrible mobility, since we wouldn't be able to control where we go?
No friction means no ability to turn. We'd have to wait until we hit an object or structure with our hands to rebound off, and with no way to speed up or slow down to control the power of our rebound, we'd just be a pinball in a pinball machine.

>>18242210
>Learn how to skate
>Hayate Ayasaki
Brother, we ha prior experience in EVERYTHING.
