You are Reinhold, master swordsman and victor of the Royal Swordsmanship Tournament. The King was so impressed with your skill, he personally requested that you be transferred out of the army and into the Royal Guard! Not bad for an orphan who was raised in a brothel in a poor fishing village.The only issue at this point is your assignment... you've been charged to be the personal guard of the King's only daughter Marianne. While she is the vision of loveliness that you'd expect from a Princess, her personality is... well... she seems to have some issues.Yesterday was a super eventful day, what with the duels and broken swords and flying little girls and (hopefully) foiled marriage plots and now you have a girlfriend kinda!Here's hoping that today's a bit less stressful, all this drama isn't good for your heart.>Sorry, but you've been stripped down to the rank of DOG!>Though dogs are loyal, they're not all that smart...>Though she still considers you her friend, she thinks a little less of you... and also herself.>And while dogs are man's best friend, they still don't count as people.Thread archive:http://suptg.thisisnotatrueending.com/archive.html?searchall=Princess+Guard+QuestCharacter list + descriptions (in progress):http://pastebin.com/1Vhj4DJvList and descriptions of the spells shown thus far:http://pastebin.com/2c9y2sDMTwitter:https://twitter.com/QM_ArchelonQuest compilation that's kindly maintained by a person who isn't me:https://www.dropbox.com/sh/n4nhs9gd0kmnnni/04tpEy5_pe>>>>>>>>
The warm rays of the sun draw you back into the realm of the awake, though you'd rather stay in bed because of how cold it is... the overall temperature has gradually been going down over the past month or so, and you really don't want to think about snow. You REALLY don't want to think about snow.But then you remember that you mostly work indoors nowadays, and the gratefulness you feel for your present situation is enough to drive you out of the bed and to your feet. After checking your watch for the time (it's currently 6:45) and making sure that the remains of your sword are still where you left them before going to sleep (they are, thank God), you get dressed and bathed.After adjusting your bracelet and fastening Agnes's sword to your belt, you're now ready for the day!>what shall be the first order of business?
Sylvie is shit
>>29984826>check on MarianneStill gotta do our job
...I thought we were a wolf again.Or did I miss something?
>>29984826See if anyone else is up.Also arch you put Melanie down as a mage in the pastebin in her description.
>>29984826Talk. To. Sylvie.
>>29984826didn't we go up to wolf by helping the princess get out of the marriage
>>29984852Seconded
>>29984826Have we left Marconetti yet?If not, we should probably gather our belongings if we are to leave soon. Daily reminder we DID get the children's drawing!
>>29984805Wait I thought we got back to wolf a couple of days ago?
>>29984826Wait, didn't we go back to wolf?See if Marianne is up, if she isn't than don't disturb her. If she's around then chat with her, ask for her advice on how to handle the Sylvie situation with as little pain and suffering as possible. If she's not, then get some fresh air and maybe draw a picture of the landscape.
>>29984826Tell Marianne a bad pun or two, then try to find out what it was that the king wanted in return for calling off the betrothal.
>>29984826Greet princes if she's awake en breakfast. If we hadn't already buckled on our sword I'd have suggested a light workout.
>>29984826Check on Marianne.
>>29984869I must be missing something, what does this have to do with the quest?
>>29984853>>29984866>>29984870>>29984872Will Arch delete the thread?
>>29984826See if Marianne is up yet, figure out what the schedule for the day is.Also didn't we get back to Wolf rank? Did I miss something?
>>29984876Aw balls.I forgot to change it.And it's too late to make a new thread AAGH MY OCD
>>29984853Never happened.
Aww yeah, I just finished Planetarian and cried salty bitch tears.Ready for more feels
>>29984805didn't we ear the wolf rank back last time?>>29984826check on marianne, go wake up luciana, invite her for breakfast in the suite we share with marianne?
>>29984897Well technically it's not too late, I mean you can still delete and start new one, you only have the opening post up. Unless you already archived, in which case...
>>29984905>>29984826This is a good idea. Maybe we can get a sketch of her before we leave.
>>29984897Just calm yourself bub.>pic related
Someone finally won?Who was it
>>29984826See what the blonde princess is upto, then go from there.
Oh man oh man ohman. I'm finally posting on a PGQ thread. First time I post after reading all of the archives.So... Are we locked into Luci's route now?T-That's ok. I only want everyone to be happy.Muh Marianne ;_;FUCK YOU, ARCH. 10/10
>>29984897I enjoy your pain.For the same reasons I'm happy Luciana got the kiss.
>>29984977The Seahawks.
>>29984950You lewd, dirty boy.
>>29984826>first order is to make Arch correct the rank posting. then check in on marianne
>>29984989>>29984977Don't worry anonsI'll find a way to use PLOT to break us away from this terrible turn of eventsYou can trust me when I say I won't rest until we're with Dargon
>>29984826>>29984852Pretty much this, yeah.It'd be nice to get >>29984859 done sooner rather than later, but it's not URGENT. We were probably moving a little too quick on letting people know earlier anyway, given that we still don't know everything about the aftermath of Celestino's plan to begin with.>>29984950>Maybe we can get a sketch of her before we leave.This sounds like a kind of thing that would be worth doing as well, actually. Appropriate that we'd want a memento of some sort given how quickly everything happened and how soon we're leaving.>>29985003...well played.
>>29985003Hue.
>>29985003The Broncos got destoryed.But not as much as the Sylvie route.
>>29984989new game+/VN
>>29985019Looks like It's luci.Good thing I dropped this, congratulations and fuck you Lucifags, I hope you enjoy it and I also hope you fuck it up.
>>29985003Fuck manning
>>29985003>be Broncos fan>mfwPity it was so one-sided though/.
>>29984950I will always support sketching a bitch. No matter how the dice roll it will be fun.
>>29984873Well I doubt Andreas if getting married to Elena or Chiara and Gregory would've told us already if he was marrying Luciana. So my guess is that Monique might take his place as Elena's bodyguard OR he might be getting married off to one of the older sisters.
>>29984989trust me it was more painful for people actually voting.i don't even had a waifu and i followed this quest from thread 3 and felt bad for guys who had "lost"
>>29985020Was >>29984859 .Agree. Changing my vote to:>check on Marianne>ask for advice concerning Sylvie>Propose to invite Luciana>maybe ask for a sketch later
>>29985035after seeing manning screw it up on the first play of the game that badly, i say the broncos got wrecked worse than Sylvie's route. but not by much
>>29985070All of her older siblings are already hitched IIRC, so it's more likely than not the bodyguard thing given that Andreas is going to be angry about it.
>>29984873Monique is Elena's new body guard. Calling right here and now.
>>29985003you cad
>>29984977Team LuciAnd Anon went very efficiently about immediately telling the people who can ensure that it will never be undone (Gregory, Nicolette, Marianne)It's over. The waifu war is over. The losing side is going to grieve, the winning side rejoices, but the rest of us... Well, we're just happy that there is peace in our time.
>>29985036Neither will ever exist.
>>29985083>i don't even had a waifu and i followed this quest from thread 3 and felt bad for guys who had "lost"I find it incredibly bizarre how attached these people are.I mean these are words on a screen on an anonymous imageboard using images of other characters for illustration, and even these characters didn't exist six months ago. Why the fuck are people so attached?
>>29984873I..Isn't it obvious?Marianne is marrying Whats-his-face-pussy-kid.
>>29985091>>29985035>>29985067>>29985055I bet you casuals only watch the superb owlDisgusting plebeians
>>29985035>People wanting to subvert the route we're on to get a last minute route changeJust wait for the VN.I'd tolerate, but still not participate, if it was Nicolette, but I'm well aware that ship's sailed
>>29985101Actually, he probably replaced Karel.
>>29985101>Andreas gone>Elena mad bro>Monique tries to be douchebag 'honorabu protector>Elena meteors through his chest
>>29985093Or maybe the king is going to try and give Monique Andreas' hand...
>>29985116part of me thought they were being ironic
>>29985116Regardless, you can't help but feel some of their pain.If you read the thread where it happened, you can basically pinpoint the exact moment that their hope was shattered.
Anon, do you think there's a chance Monique genuinely has a thing for Luciana?Maybe he'll do once he learns about the new couple.>>29985101What insight, Mr. Slowpoke!
>>29985120Why the fuck would Andreas care about that?>>29985108I never got the official ROUTELOCK from Arch, so I suppose we could still fuck things up and get dumped.
>>29985083Luciana is full-throttle my magical realm, but I was certain she wouldn't win.It was like finding a $50 in my pocket that i didn't know I had.>>29985126>admit to being a Bronco fan after that rapeI almost called the cops, but seriously would Jersey police really care that much about ANOTHER murder?
>>29985129I ain't even mad.Marianne or Luciana or go home
>writing
>>29985159>I almost called the cops, but seriously would Jersey police really care that much about ANOTHER murder?http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_burn_centers_in_the_United_States
>>29985157...What does Andreas have to do with anything?
>>29985116could be they relate the chars personality on their real lives.
>>29985129As much as I'm a Luciana fan, Nico deserves meido. I can't be that cruel to her.Failing that, Nico/Rana double tomboy action
>>29984977Luciana. Caused a bit of a stir, too, but it could have been worse. I'm just glad things have mostly settled down.
Peace in our lifetime, gentlemen.Unless Arch does something hilarious and just kills off whoever our waifu turned out to be and send us on a murderhobo quest.
>>29985199Gregory specifically mentioned that the new deal would piss Andreas right the fuck off.
>>29985201>Nico/RanaI would ship that so fucking hard.
>>29985199> "Of course that old fart wouldn't back down without getting something in exchange," Sir Gregory sighs as he lets go of Nicolette. "And Andreas is sure to be fucking pissed... but I don't feel like talking about it now so let's drop it already."
>>29985199Have you been reading at all?It was explicitly stated that the agreement was going to piss off Andreas for whatever reasonErgo, it probably means Monique is getting his position
>>29985201Nico already confirmed for having both Meido and Scalebutt lapping at her vagina, and she seems intent on seducing Marianne, too.
>>29985159oh no you didn't!
>>29985228Or his boipussy
>>29985221>>29985228Alternatively, Elena is being promised to Monique.
>>29985226Ah. Must've missed that bit.
>>29985120>Marianne is marrying Whats-his-face-pussy-kid.But Reinhold is already routelocked to Luci.
>>29985201YeahI can ship this.I can ship the hell out of this.
Maybe Celestino thought Monique was gay and is gonna order Andreas to be his husbando.Because of course, someone with a nickname like "Knight of the Starry Sky" gotta be gay too, right?
>>29985225hot Lady lancer riding a baddass lady dragon, oh yeah.
Everyone's face when Nico turns out to be the sub to Meidos Domme
>>29985243This is fairly unlikely given that Gregory would've likely been just as furious with this as with the Luciana scenario.
>>29985201Nico gets all the waifus we didn't. She seems to have inherited our accidental harem get powers
>>29985243That seems less likely because Greg would lose his shit over that too
>>29985243Doubtful, on the grounds that Gregory would just as apeshit over that as he did over Luci.
>>29985019>>29985036Even if we could, everything would go down hard pretty fast. If we play with Luci and Sylvie's feelings like that we would just make Marianne disgusted at us for doing so, and we would break their hearts figuratively, and the Gregory would break ours literally.Unless, we "clarify" that we want to take it slow, maybe date a few times to see if we can do it, and then confirm our love for [INSERT WAIFU'S NAME HERE], maybe we could make it.Oh, who am I fooling.>>29985083>>29985116It's called Willing Suspension of Disbelief.I seriously statred to fell physically bad when Luci brought the news, and It was only made worse since I had only re-watched the ending of Madoka Magica. Fuck, now I'm feeling like shit again.
>>29985265Doesn't Lucianna have male siblings? Maybe Monique was promised to one of them?
>>29985233Rana strikes me as more of the kind of girl that acts tough and in charge, but actually wants a guy to push her down and administer multiple stern fuckings, not really much for the /u/boat tho
>>29985204I still find it funny that the duel caused more of a shitstorm than the end of the Waifu War did.Luci was my last choice, but come on, we've already said we're in a relation ship with Luci to Marianne AND Nicolette, Meido route was already confirmed closed off beforehand, even I'll admit it's a route lock in every way short of Arch saying "YOU'RE FUCKING ROUTE LOCKED"
>>29985287Which is why Nico will use her ''sealed king'' to ''slay the dragon''.
>>29985284Giancarlo is married to someone equally perverted, and all of Celestino's sons by his previous wife are either married (the youngest relatively recently), or are the one that fled and broke his heart temporarily.
>>29985275hey cheer up! at least we can fondle a princess now without getting too trouble right?god i love the word fondle.
>>29985263I think that's been mentioned a lot actually. Early morning Meido seems to confirm it
Reinhold gets to be in a long distance relationship.Poor fucker.
>>29985284>Monique ends up married to the 10 year old yaoi fangirl
>>29985315>The Fondle Princess guys from thread 1 make their triumphant return, knowing their waifu, the act of fondling, would win all along
>>29985243This is also likely. I mean she still is young but Celestino can definitely still use her as a bargaining chip for when she comes of age. I'm fairly sure shit like this happened in Medieval days all the time so...
>>29985304Really my only issue is that our actual relationship with Luci doesn't seem terribly developed. We've known her for like three days tops and she's always been more of a friend-of-a-friend in my books.
>>29985304The only way to get out now is to make Luciana realize what a disgusting pig we really are>As soon as she touched my dick I came and started farting
>>29985201Get out /u/ boat. Tomboy route was best route.
>>29985304Reinhold answering gregory if they were together pretty much sealed the deal, i actually thought that the kiss was just a start of a long love triangle war.
>>29985330>she pimps him out to high class nobles so long as they record it on Magic Vision
>>29985342Well, now she's going to look to become a friend of our closest... "friend"...
>>29985331it feels glorious.>>29985319isn't it romantic though?
>>29985359>implying she doesn't just force Reinhold to get fucked by him every night while she giggles at Reinholds micropenis.
>>29985383>LDR>RomanticJesus, no.
>>29985353BUT DOUBLE TOMBOY COUPLEThe only thing more Tomboy than that is the UCONN Womens Basketball team.
>>29985263source?
>>29985317Plus Meido is a ninja/battle-maid! Probably. But seriously Is Arny a vampire or what? Hearing heartbeats and all.
>>29985354No triangles.Only yandere Sylvie now.Speaking of which we should break the news to her sooner rather than later.
>>29985393>BUT DOUBLE TOMBOY COUPLECorrection - double tomboy sandwich with creamy meido filling.
>>29985385You sure know your femdom don't you?
>>29985403Yeah, she was probably the one we tripped the most flags with early in the quest, barring the rapid guard rank rising with Marianne.
Updated the character pastebin with Melanie and Luciana, in case anyone didn't see my twitter post:http://pastebin.com/1Vhj4DJv>back to writing
>>29985412I can't handle that much /u/.Meido wouldn't be the filling, she would be the one organizing it.
>>29985422Just saying, Reinhold was already confirmed to be tiny.
>>29985383Long distance relations ships have a stupidly low rate "success" IRL. I am guessing Luci will come and stay in Granche or something for story reasons.
>>29985401Arnaud is secretly the first sealed king, the one who did it willingly. It took less energy to seal him, so he got out much earlier than the rest. He's looking for his brothers and sisters because he can free them much faster than anybody else
>>29985393No. It's /u/-boat people like you that helped sink Nico route.
>>29985459>mfw that almost makes senseKubo pls go
>>29985454Good thing we have Luci, isn't it?
>>29985450She would be the powerbottom who doms from the middle.
>>29985459>Arnaud is secretly the first sealed king, the one who did it willingly....so he's a girl?Man, I don't even know.
>>29985459I thought the first sealed king was the fire fucker?
>>29985479>...so he's a girl?THE PERFECT DISGUISE
>>29985470We are too small to satisfy even her according to that one site.
>>29985399
>>29985432i demand a 12 month Sylvie gravure calender on VN kickstarter for this quests injustice.
>>29985459the first sealed king was a female spirit who got destroyed after the war
>>29985315Not yet, really. Not until the wedding with Luci.Fuck. Had I been on previous thread, I would had been willing to give up Marianne Route If it was the only way to vancel the wedding with Monique, seeing as running away would just cause more trouble, and Luci would still be in love with Rein if she married Thierri Fuck, thierri and Reinhold are basically the same, except that Reinhold is younger and loves swords. But Rein would probably die to protect his friend, so why not give his entire life for one, if it meant making her happy?But then it got settled alright. And then mostly everyone went to sail in Luci's ship.I'm kind of regretting not passing for a drink some hours ago, but you know what they say about people who drink alone,
>>29985511The thing about the VN is that if arch ever got gud at drawing, he would just do his comic instead.
>>29985511Stretch goal.
>>29985515but did they find the pieces, or did pouring a metric fuckton of magical energy into a thing that needed magical energy to regain its form just help it?
>>29985506I laughed heartily.
>>29985500I meant for femdom humiliation lewds.
Where were you when route was lock?
>>29985562Truth be told, I don't care about any of the options so long as we pick one and stick with it.
>>29985399I'll be kind.Virgin's Empire.
>>29985500
>>29985546That knowledge gives me a strange feeling. If I were a poetic man, I'd label it happiness.But I am not, so I might visit webMD and convince myself I have a terminal illness instead.
>>29985577Likewise.It's done. Let us let it rest.
>>29985528you are never alone anon.
>>29985551I think Rein is pathetic enough that one couldn't even get off to humiliating him. It would be like femdomming Eeyore.
>>29985562Getting hit by a train due to trying to circumvent the Luci Railroad Express.
>>29985498...Given Niklaus' comments in the Bernard interlude about how there was no way to magically turn himself into a girl, he stated "and I guess that this shock wasn't enough for a Soul Ascension so that way's out too," which implies that elementals ARE capable of altering their physical form to that extent.IT ALL MAKES SENSE.More realistically, he actually COULD be a vampire, especially given what we were told (OOC) about them during a very early thread.>Vampires are a thing, but are living beings under a curse and not actually reanimated bodies.This setting's vampirism seems closer to lycanthropy, and would make the fact that he retired from his adventuring career due to negative consequences of a particularly large solo engagement against a group of noteworthy foes make a great deal of sense.
>>29985614I giggled
>>29985583>>29985506thanks guys
>>29985562i flipped a coin heads 1 tails 2.i didn't catch the coin and dropped it, one of the new born puppies i own swallowed it and rushed him to do hospital.so i guess i was on vet's office.
>>29985562Voting for Lucie route despite being a Mariefag because I'm a cool guy like that.
>>29985636We need to become a vampire so we can suck even harder than we do now
Wondering if the Princess is already up and about, you open your door... and see her sitting at the table, reading a book while she sips a cup of tea.She's gotten up before you every day you've been here in Marconetti, maybe she's a morning person? She did always head to her room rather early back home in Granache, anyways."Hm?" alerted by the sound of your bedroom door opening, Marianne places her book down on the table and turns to face you. "Ah, you're up earlier than usual... and you seem to be in a rather good mood, judging from the goofy smile on your face."Goofy smile? You're not... oh, you kind of are. Huh.>greet the Princess!
>>29985691"What can I say, Marianne, I'm a goofy guy. How's the book?"
>>29985691how was your dream?
>>29985562Drunk at my desk three hours before a lecture.Went to bed happy as soon as I saw the voting results and woke up as an awful mess.
>>29985691I would make a pun about you reading a book this early, but i'm drawing a blank (page)
>>29985691In all honesty it would kind of be hard not to beWhat is the plan for today?
>>29985691"I will endeavour to work on my smiling if it is not to your satisfaction, princess. Truly, I have not been practising enough of late."Make a few funny faces"See? My form is terrible. Nonetheless, good morning to you, Marianne."
>>29985691"My heart is simply aflutter this fine morn with thoughts of my beloved, her fair beauty and the purity of her soul make life worth living!" Do this accompanied by lots of overly dramatic gesturing and full body movements, maybe gracefully leap or do our best impression of a ballet dancer or something.
>>29985562Right here, where I always am after work. Votec Luci.I have handcuffs, a blindfold, flogger, rope, and a whip in my closet.
>>29985691"hmm, i wonder why..."and ask her if she minds having luci here for breakfast
>>29985750seconding this
>>29985761supporting.
>>29985774>SHe hears that as us wanting Luci for "breakfast"
>>29985691"It's been doing that more and more often lately, I've noticed. Good to see you in high spirits so early as well, Marianne."
>>29985713This.
>>29985691Do that thing where you run a hand in front of your face and go to totally somber. Some joke if we think of a good one. We should offer an apology for getting back a bit late too.
>>29985562In a culvert browsing 4chan on my 1st gen kindle's shitty experimental web browser using a flashlight to see.I hate my life.
>>29985750ThisWe've got nothing to work with to make a joke here and y'all are reaching super hard.Shit ice puns would be better than most of this crap
>>29985809This has my support
>>29985761This + ask about inviting Luci for breakfast
>>29985761>>29985750Something with these maybe?
>>29985691This >>29985761Oh, and ask if we could invite Luciana.
>>29985691"Only because this court of two needs a buffoon who can laugh at himself."
>>29985691"I simply can't help myself Marianne, I'm worried that if this keeps up my face will be frozen like this for the rest of my life.Are you enjoying your book?"Also, ask her for advice about breaking it to Sylvie, not immediately, but we really should cover that in our conversation.
>>29985822Story?
>>29985562asleep. Should have stayed up longer for the vote
>>29985691"Seems to be a common thing, lately. Do you think I'm coming down with something?"
>>29985750This is good.
>>29985850Is that a midget? It looks oddly proportioned.
>>29985892I wouldn't be surprised, but buffoons are often chosen for being funny looking.
>>29985892Maybe, but I don't think so. I think the pose he is in is simply too tight.
>>29985892>ItJeez anon
I just remember that we have to break the news to Sylvie.I'm sad now.
>>29985942She gonna get tenderly huggedWhether she wants or not
>>29985977I feel like either we or Luciana are going to be tenderly tossed across a room
>>29985985And then tenderly tossed across the kingdom when we get back to Granache.Maybe Sylvie and Vincent will play a nice, father-daughter game of baseball using Reinhold's shattered body.
>>29985942No, wait.First we have to clarify what is Reinhold looking from Luci. I mean of course it will all depend on what /tg/ says, but even he wasn't sure about were he was standing seeing how shocked he was that Gregory was already thinking about marriage.OH GOD, Is there still a chance of being with Marriane without messing eveything up? No, I guess not.I want to blame Arch or /tg/, but I could only ever blame myself.
>>29985985well Rein did say to her that he wasn't looking for a relationship so.
>>29986057>Every dad wants us to marry off to their daughter>Pick the one that hates usWho's ready for awkward family reunions?
>>29986057VINCENT VS GREGORYSYLVIE VS LUCIANNATHE WAIFU WARS HAVE ENDED, THE REINHOLD WARS HAVE JUST BEGUN
>>29986068We said we weren't ready for one.And honestly, we probably still aren't, but we're trying it anyways and taking it slow.
>>29986063>Is there still a chance of being with Marriane without messing eveything up?Sure, but it'll take another hundred threads.
>>29986084son in law(fu?) wars. makes me cackle like a madman
guys seriously stop, i don't have a waifu but I'm feeling the feels here.we are going to drown if it's finally time.
While I'm fine with any girl, the thing that upsets me is that we told Sylvie we weren't ready for a relationship then went and kissed Luciana.She's going to hate us.
"In all honesty, it would be kind of hard not to be," you reply."Ah, yes. The Luciana thing... I bet you're already picking out baby names and all that," Marianne replies, shaking her head."Baby n-" you stammer. "N-no, I haven't even thought of... AHEM. Anyways, what's the plan for today?"Dammit, she caught you COMPLETELY off-guard with that one!"I didn't really have anything planned for the day, I guess we'll head into town?" Marianne says, shrugging. "I'll probably try and invite Luciana to come along too, I'm sure you'd enjoy that.""Uh, thanks," you reply, blushing a bit.Please let this be the worst of her teasing...>ask if you can invite Luciana over for breakfast, you don't want to foul her mood with the Sylvie matter so early in the morning>ask for her advice concerning Sylvie, you'd might as well get it over with as soon as possible>[OTHER]
>>29986184we don't have to give her all the detailsand luci kissed us first
>>29986213>>ask for her advice concerning Sylvie, you'd might as well get it over with as soon as possible
>>29986184the saddest thing is she won't, and only blame herself.
>>29986213>ask for her advice concerning Sylvie, you'd might as well get it over with as soon as possible
>>29986213>ask if you can invite Luciana over for breakfast>ask for her advice concerning Sylvie, you'd might as well get it over with as soon as possibleboth are good, and Luciana breakfast will hopefully sooth her about the whole Sylvie issue
>>29986228I hope she will. It's idiotic to expect everyone to just like us.
>>29986213>ask for her advice concerning Sylvie, you'd might as well get it over with as soon as possibleLets just get it over with.
>>29986213>ask if you can invite Luciana over for breakfast, you don't want to foul her mood with the Sylvie matter so early in the morningmorning is never a good time for bad news
>>29986213Advice concerning Sylvie. That's honestly pretty important, and it would be greedy to ask about Luciana now when she's already doing something for us there.
>>29986213>ask for her advice concerning Sylvie, you'd might as well get it over with as soon as possibleWe need to deal with this and the longer we wait the worse it'll be
>>29986213>ask for her advice concerning Sylvie, you'd might as well get it over with as soon as possibleRip the band-aid. It's going to suck, but we need to deal with it on our own terms rather than letting it fester into a larger issue and blindside us later.
>>29986249I hope so too. Would make for a better story if she goes full jealous yandere.
>>29986213>ask if you can invite Luciana over for breakfast, you don't want to foul her mood with the Sylvie matter so early in the morningalso, Luci did say we'd talk about how we're going to relationship this morning, so that needs to happen ASAP. plus, she might give some good advice for talking with Sylvie too
>>29986213>>ask for her advice concerning Sylvie, you'd might as well get it over with as soon as possibleIt would be best if this was handled by us before someone else screws it up worse than we can.
>>29986213>Ask her advice concerning Sylvie.Because we seriously need all the help we can get.
>>29986213>ask for her advice concerning Sylvie, you'd might as well get it over with as soon as possibleShit's gon get LOUD
i hope you guys bought tickets for the feel train this morning.
>>29986213>ask for her advice concerning Sylvie, you'd might as well get it over with as soon as possibleLuciana breakfast I think we can do too, but mention it AFTER we've dealt with the Sylvie situation
>>29986283>that needs to happen ASAPNot really. It should happen this morning.
Awwww.>Come on laptop whilst having breakfast>PGQ only just started>Have work in 15 minutesI want don't want to work todayyyyyyy.
>>29986317S-She'll deal with it, r-right?She won't explode and h-hate us, right?Right?Right?
>>29986213> you'd might as well get it over with as soon as possibleThe hell does that mean?>[OTHER]>Ask her for counseling about dealing the situations we are in, with both Luci and Sylvie. Maybe along the lines of knowing how dense we can be sometimes, and that we don't want to mess it up.
>>29986356I'm sure everything will be fine.
>>29986213>ask for her advice concerning Sylvie, you'd might as well get it over with as soon as possibleMarianne suggested that we stopped juggling between them sooner rather than later and we took her advice. Let her know that we respect her opinion as a friend and that we don't want to compromise our friendship with Sylvie because we handled it stupidly.
>>29986088This is more or less right.Circumstances conspired in such a way that Reinhold sort of went "for as much as I keep saying I'm not well-equipped for a relationship, this probably means I actually do like her." followed by "and now that you mention it, being in a relationship doesn't really require more than that from both parties, does it."Our talk with Citrine is a good thing to think back to.> "Just remember that most people aren't like -she- was, okay? They want you to be happy, and they want to be happy WITH you," Citrine says, pointing a finger in the air for emphasis. "It's the ones who want YOU to make THEM happy without any care as to how it's making you feel that you have to worry about, you know?">"It looks like this is goodbye for tonight, but remember what I said. You deserve to be happy, and there's no point in keeping yourself closed off from people who want to make you happy. Just remember that, okay?" Citrine says as she places a hand on the door to her room.We're still friends, and don't want Sylvie to be miserable because of this, after all.>>29986213>"Ah, yes. The Luciana thing... I bet you're already picking out baby names and all that," Marianne replies, shaking her head.Leave it to Marianne to immediately jump to thinking about adorable babies.>ask for her advice concerning Sylvie, you'd might as well get it over with as soon as possibleGod, that carriage ride back is going to be awkward if this goes poorly.
>>29986387>God, that carriage ride back is going to be awkward if this goes poorly.Isn't there like two or three carriages?
>>29986476>Implying it won't be incredibly awkward in whichever Reinhold goes.
>>29986513>implying we aren't going to hang in the royal carriage and bro it up with uncle G and King Aquaman
>>29986539It's a given that we won't do that.
>>29986513I hope we get to hang out with Gregory on the way back. We can ask him for stories about Volker.
>>29986476Sylvie will recruit Nico and Meido to glare angrily at Reinhold.When he asks about it, they'll just say it's nothing personal but Sylvie asked them to do it and continue glaring daggers at him.
>>29986556>implying those two aren't going to have one carriage all to themselves on the ride home
>>29986476There were two, but it'd take a restructuring of seating arrangements if Sylvie didn't want to be in our car on the ride back, IIRC.There's no reason this should be necessary, though, unless Sylvie herself insists on it in order to get some time away while she punches things sadly in order to work through her feelings.>>29986539>>29986554I actually wanted this arrangement for this exact reason, honestly. Marianne can probably tolerate Gregory's presence if he's got us to focus his antics on and her father's there to compensate.Sylvie gets stuck alone, trying to stamp down her bad feelings while in a carriage with Nico and Meido making lovey-dovey faces at each other.
>>29986571>Implying Gregory isn't going to lock Reinhold in the carraige with them to 'chaperone' (read provide grandchildren).
>>29986549I'd like to hang out more with Greggers myself.Heck I'd like to hang out with him to the point where calling him Greggers only earns oneself a mild beating rather then being reduced to a bloody mist.Gregory strikes me as the type to dislike nicknames thus the misting.
>>29986539Now there's an idea. Why not ask one of them for woman advice?If nothing else it can be for some interesting dialogue
Well, Nico already has her target sighted. And the other girls aren't to torn up about things.Time to find Sylvie a husbando.Rena?
>>29986556Plz no. I only ever wanted Reinhold to be happy with Marie.>>29986601>Why not ask one of them for woman advice?It does seem like a good idea at first, but take in mind that NONE of these girls have mostly ever had any experiende with boys that they liked, were their age, or both.The only one who hasn't been infatuated by Reinhold by now is Melanie, who must have had at least some experience deaeling with boys (being the most down-to-earth and a commoner), and Marianne, who is still reclutant to leave anyone get close to her again, lest they may hurt her again like Millen did.
>>29986685i want sylvie to turn to an idol for us all.
>>29986685Guillaume. She'll come around when she's too afraid to turn into an old maid and he will have become a dashing young man.But seriously, I bet it's going to be Karel. Or nobody.
>>29986685Monique
>>29986685Reya x Sylvie would be okay.>>29986761That's bullshit but I kind of like it anyway.
I personally am glad that the waifu warring is over, so that we can get closer to questing with the true hero of Archelon's universeOn that note, Matthias Quest when?
>>29986782Never. I don't want /tg/ to get its filthy mitts on Matthias
Sylvie...Even though you may not like her like THAT, she's still your friend and you'd like for things to not get TOO awful between the two of you... but it is true that you picked Luciana over her and she's sure to take that news horribly."Hey, Marianne?" you ask, the goofy smile on your face having completely vanished."What is it?" Marianne replies."About Sylvie..." you sigh. "...how do you think I should break the news to her? I mean, I know that she liked me and I owe it to her as a friend to tell her that me and Luciana are a thing now, but...""That's right, she -did- have a massive crush on you," she shakes her head. "And I've known her my entire life, she's not going to take this well -at all-.""Yeah, that's why I'm asking you for advice," you say."You still want to be friends with her, I take it?" Marianne asks."Of course I do! It's just that I don't like her the way that I like Luciana, and-""And what happened last night with the marriage plans made you realize it?""...pretty much..."After letting out a long sigh, Marianne takes a sip of tea and turns back to you."I'll tell you up-front, Melanie, Nicolette, Rana and I pretty much figured out that you had feelings for Luciana after you ran after her last night and took forever to get back," Marianne says. "We'd assumed that you were, umm... making out or something," the Princess says, her face becoming slightly flushed, "and Sylvie seemed to be rather depressed when Melanie walked her back to their room so I assume that she came to the same conclusion.""...oh," you mumble.>[1/?]
>>29986782What's really important in this quest is traveling to the east, finding arch's self-insert, and giving him a nice shell buff and waxing.

>>29986830>Implying that wouldn't be even betterArch just needs to find an artist
Everyone thinks Sylvie will flip out violently and they want to tip-toe around it. Which is silly, really.The biggest response we can possibly expect is a mini-yandere event where she springs a kiss on Rein-time and immediately apologizes. "I'm sorry... I.. I just thought maybe you liked forward women..."
>>29986754>KarelB-but it's a girl!>nobodyHa! as if. She'll just knock someone out eventually and drag him to her dungeon. Hnnng.
>>29986882see, this works because it's somewhat unexpected for a VN.And it works as a response for people that harp on about route locks.
It didn't matter who we picked, at least one girl was going to be hurt.
>>29986943Not if we married Monique
>>29986964Then every girl would have been hurt.
>>29986825God damn it, now it's going to be even harder to do."The best advice I can give to you is that you should tell her sooner rather than later..." Marianne says. "But DON'T run over to her room and do it right now, that's not the kind of thing you tell someone this early in the morning. UNDERSTAND?" she looks you right in the eyes."Yeah, I got it," you reply, gulping."And make sure that Luciana isn't in the room whenever you do tell her. I don't want a war to break out because Sylvie snapped and used one of her father's attack spells on her...""Y- yeah, I'll also keep that in-"KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK"Ugh... who could it be at this hour? I told them to hold off on breakfast until eight..." Marianne mutters, rolling her eyes. "Would you mind getting that?""Sure, no problem," you reply as you walk over to the door.>[2/?]
>>29986985is it Luciana?
>>29986985It's Sylvie, isn't it.
>>29986885>it's a girl!Details like this don't matter.
>>29986985>inb4 sylvie
>>29986985>A wild Sylvie appears.
>>29986985RED ALERTRED ALERTCASTLE REINHOLD IS UNDER ATTACK BY THE HORDES OF SYLVIE
>>29986985Hi Sylvie and Lucianna!
>>29987001>>29986996>>29986995It's Sylvie, dressed in Luciana's skin.
>>29986995>>29986996alright, who's taking the bets?
>>29986985>"The best advice I can give to you is that you should tell her sooner rather than later..." Marianne says. "But DON'T run over to her room and do it right now, that's not the kind of thing you tell someone this early in the morning. UNDERSTAND?"Yeah she knows us.
>>29986985>>29986996>>29987001>>29987005Coming to her best friend Marie for comfort.We open the door instead, and all her sins and failing wash over her like a tide.And it's not even 10am yet.
>>29986943Not if we had picked Tina.Literally, the only completly positive thing we can look foward to is having a sword made out of Magical Nanomachines.
>>29986985Calling it now: It's Andreas asking Reinhold for his miraculous ability to undo Celestino's plans and ruin Monique's life.
>>29986873It'd be nice too>>29986857It would be better, I don't even understand the thought process that led you to claim I said it wouldn't. I'm just saying it won't be a quest.
>>29987015"Would you fuck me, Reinhold? I'd fuck me. I'd fuck me so hard."
>>29987029I'm pretty sure they'd all be pretty pissed off that they lost to a bracelet.
>>29987034She's actually futa and is doing so right as she speaks.
>>29987011I think the second the door opens everyone would suffocate. The tension would become too thick to breath in.
>>29987034I could never decide whether this phrase made Buffalo Bill more or less gay.
>>29987032Even worse would be if it's ELENA.She hears that Luciana is relieved because Reinhold helped her out of a bad situation, and now her father's trying to take away her best friend and replace him with that jerk who totally should've lost the duel and Reinhold helped Luciana, so why won't he help me?It's just too sad, little lady. So very sad.
>>29986985It's totally Celestino!
>>29987081"We just need to talk to aquaman again, so we just make Celestino switch plans every night, until the day he dies"
>>29986985>[3/3]Opening it, you're met with a maid... who doesn't have a food cart with her."This isn't about breakfast?" you say out loud."No, my apologies," the maid says with a deep bow. "I was instructed to inform you that the King will be making a formal announcement at two in the afternoon, and that the presence of Princess Marianne and her bodyguard has been requested.""Ugh..." you hear Marianne grumbling behind you. "Very well, we shall be there.""I apologize for the disturbance, Your Highness," the maid says, bowing once again before she scurries off to the next door, presumably to give the same news."So much for our free day," Marianne sighs. "And I suppose that you won't be able to have your date on the town with Luciana after all.">so what now?
>>29987073I personally found it to be more egotistical than anything.
>Stopped following quest after incident outside granny's house>Scrolling down>See OP mention girlfriend>Skim archive>Now Sylivie's about get ficking crushedI didn't even side with anyone in particular, but thinking about Sylvie once mentioning how she couldn't stop thinking of Reinhold and marriage and now this happens...fuck man...
>>29987108Invite Luci over for breakfast.
>>29987108>the King will be making a formal announcement
>>29987099>Celestino>dyingCome on now, son.>>29987118Teenage girls' crushes are made to be doubly crushed.
>>29987108"I've got a bad feeling about this. I've got a REALLY bad feeling about this... Anyway, since that plan got sunk, shall we have Lucianna over for breakfast instead?"
>>29987108exactly: >>29987123i have a bad feeling about this, we might as well enjoy every second left
>>29987108HE KNOWS!
>>29987108>The King will be making a formal announcement at two in the afternoon, and the presence of Princess Marianne and her bodyguard has been requested.
>>29987029I'm still kinda worried about the deal of fixing the sword with crystals. Won't it be much more fragile afterwards than it would if we just melted it up and reforged it?
>>29987108I do not trust this at all....We'll Ned to talk to Sylvie before it happens...
>>29987138That doesn't make it hurt any less.
>>29987155You don't understand how strong these crystals are.
>>29987108this:>>29987139
>>29987155*MAGIC* Crystals.
>>29987158>...We'll Ned to talk to Sylvie>...We'll Ned>NedStop jinxing us anon.
>>29987123This.
>>29987108"Well, I guess he had to announce whatever Gregory was talking about some time.">implying it's going to be that simple"Anyway, it might not be as fun as a big trip, but maybe we can do breakfast instead?"
>>29987108"I wouldn't call it a date, it'd be difficult to stare lovingly into each other's eyes while I'm busy guarding the both of you.This is probably the concession that King Celestino insisted on, Gregory mentioned that Andreas wouldn't be happy. I certainly hope he isn't trying to make Monique Elena's bodyguard."
>>29987108I don't get what announcement could involve both Andreas and us specifically so it's probably just to make us feel guilty and rustle our jimmies.Anyway, this:>>29987123>>29987139Though my autism can't tell me if this isn't rude toward Marianne.
>>29987108>Celestino says fuck it and marries off Luciana to Monique anyways
>>29987155Sciencemagic.These are the same crystals that turn regular bears into SUPERBEARS. Fantasy logic dictates that putting them in your sword will also make your sword better.
>>29987118take a seat anon, it's been a comfy ride so far on the flight feel101 we had a little bump from that tension at 2/? but i'm sure we will be fine.
>>29987108HABBIDING
>>29987158I am gonna have to agree here. I really feel we should rip the bandaid now.And I believe inviting Luci over right now would make the Sylvie situation a bit worse. My opinion anyway
>>29987197>Gregory turns Monique into a fine paste on the spot
>>29987099>Implying Celestine won't outlive everyone currently living.>Implying he won't stop having children as joyful as Luciana and Elena, only to have them married off to horrible lords.>Implying he will rest until he sees both kingdoms reunited at last under one king.>>29987138>Teenage girls' crushes are made to be doubly crushed.Please never say that again.
>>29987197>Celestino marries Luciana to Andreas just to fuck with us>Andreas stops being a bodyguard and Monique takes his place>Gregory can't say anythingProblems, Reinhold?
>>29987211We don't do it now, obviously.The announcement is at 2 PM, and it's 7 AM or so now.Let things settle a little while, then go talk to Sylvie at around noon or something so we're not springing it on her first thing in the morning and there's still some time for her to process before the announcement.
>>29987217Oh, so Celestine is a vampire. It all makes sense now.
>This was all set in motion because of monique.One of these days I hope we break that fucking sword of his. Yes, break. Just to rub his nose in it. Volker would be proud.
>>29987108>>29987197>Celestino frames Reinhold for the kidnapping attempts and publicly declares him an outlaw
>>29987138>teenage girls' crushes are made to be doubly crushedThen let's tell Luciana to bugger off, that we don't want to see her conniving face ever again.
>>29987235This. Archelon is obviously warning us through Marianne that rushing the Sylvie case is a bad idea.
>>29987108>Investigate if someone knows what will Celestino's formal announcement be.Aquaman and Gregory might know. Not sure if Luciana will, but it's worth a try.Whatever it is we have to figure it out before this afternoon.
>>29987235>We don't do it now, obviously.>The announcement is at 2 PM, and it's 7 AM or so now.Sorry I didn't mean 'right now' right now but before the announcement/other unhelpful things happen. My bad.
>>29987233>Luci looks at Rein>Rein look at Greg>Luci looks at Greg>Luci, Taka, Rein, and Marie (along with anyone else who feels like coming) all casually jog out the front door as Gregory begins the rampage to end all rampages.

>>29987262should we take her to a public place to not make a scene?
>>29987261so, we know that something happened to Guillaume that made the group stop adventuring.what if he just outright DIED, and got back for whatever reason as a vampire or directly bound to the castle ?
>>29987274The two guys we used as proxy are already informed and did nothing. Why would they intervene now?
>tells Sylvie about everything.>somehow she seems fine with it, almost...nonchalant.>Back at home, resting in bed.>Suddenly feel something warm and soft slides it's way into our bed.>Try to make sense in the darkness yet can't move or scream.>It's Sylvie, naked with tears rolling down her cheeks and an extremely deranged smile on her face.It won't hurt unless you struggle TOO much Reinhold, you seem to like girls that take the initiative don't you Reinhold. I'll keep you happy Reinhold, I won't let anyone else hurt you. Don't worry Reinhold, I won't hurt anybody as long as you cooperate and be mine and mine alone.I WON'T LET THAT THIEVING SLUT TAKE YOU.Everything is going to be fine :)
>>29987290No. That is a terrible idea.
>>29987250Actually, Volker'd probably be pretty pissed if we broke a Sealed King, those are damn good swords.
>>29987284>Implying breaking the blade wouldn't set him freeI forgot about him for a moment. I can wish that it sets him free at least.
>>29987307It doesn't.Breaking the blade kills the Sealed King.We actually asked about that in-character.
>>29987307They aren't sealed in the sword, they're sealed in the form of a sword. Breaking the sword would kill the elemental.
>>29987307>HimI'm starting to think you have short term memory loss, anon
>>29987314>this kills the sword
>>29987301I like it.
>>29987290If she's going to make a big scene, which I'm still not entirely sure she is, we'd rather it be in private.Trying to wrangle people into acting a certain way when given bad news by applying societal pressures is only a reasonable plan when you think breaking that bad news is going to be the last you care to see of them. You drop the bomb and get out, and let the fallout come later when you won't have to deal with it.Sylvie's still our friend above all else, and we're going to be around her relatively often. It's way better to get all the kicking and screaming out of the way if it's going to happen, rather than letting it fester and turn into something worse.
>>29987301you guys are really streatching sylvies personality here, its because of you that she lost most of her fans when arche revealed she wanted to marry rein.
The prospect of King Celestino making ANY kind of announcement after last night gives you kind of a sick feeling... but Sir Gregory said that Luciana was safe, so that's probably not what this is about, right? Luciana is YOURS, dammit.But whatever, time to push those bad thoughts away for now and focus on good things. Things like food. And Luciana."Hey, Marianne?" you call out."What is it now?" the Princess replies."Would you mind if I invited Luciana over to have breakfast with us?""I suppose that would be nice... go ahead," she nods."Thanks, I'll go and see if she's awake!"That was easier than you were expecting. But then again, Luciana -is- her best friend so she'd probably want to have breakfast with her regardless of anything that had to do with you. Waving goodbye to Marianne as you leave the room, you notice that the maid seems to have hit Sir Gregory's room last, seeing as how he's standing out in the hall with a rather annoyed expression and the maid's leaving this part of the hallway entirely... you kind of want to talk to him about what the announcement's supposed to be about, but you REALLY don't want to bug him so early in the morning.And especially not when he's already in a foul mood.Turning in the direction of Luciana's room, you start walking... and you notice that Andreas is waking towards you.>talk to him>don't talk to him
>>29987314>>29987317Change of plans: kick Monique's ass then take the sword.Better?
>>29987307Breaking the blade kills the elemental sealed within. The only way for them to be released is when they have absorbed enough magic energy from their masters over the years
>>29987301 this is my fetish...but no, not for reinhold

>>29987338Then we would have a sword we can't properly utilise, and if we don't kill him Monique will just use a spell to teleport it back to him.

>>29987334For what it's worth, if Andreas really is taking the bullet for us, I'd be interested in seeing if Grandma might have a position available at the Eschenwald estate.It's a big place, with relatively few people living there, but it has a staff to attend to it regardless. Guards to keep the place from being burgled, cleaning and kitchen staff to keep the place running, stables to maintain the beasts to pull their carriage, and so on and so forth.She's getting on in years and her only other living relative only stops by rarely. It's not as prestigious of a position as Royal Bodyguard, but I couldn't imagine he'd find Agnes poor company, nor would she dislike having him around.Not to mention that Elena'd be ecstatic if it meant she could see all of her favorite people in one place.Just an idea to consider.
>>29987462i like this
>>29987441*dusts hands* The MC has spoken.
"Hey, Andreas," you say, waving as he approaches."Hey, Reinhold," he waves back. "Elena wouldn't happen to be bugging you and Princess Marianne this morning too, would she?""Uh, no?" you shrug. "Why, are you looking for her?""Yeah, she's not answering when I knock and the only thing I can hear from inside there is her rabbit scratching at the door," he sighs. "And I'm not able to open it without being invited in, so...""...oh. You think something's wrong?""Nah, she's probably harassing Gregory or something... and he just happens to be right over there. Pardon me for a bit while I ask him," Andreas says as he walks over to Sir Gregory, who's still standing in front of the door to his suite.>stick around until he comes back over here>that's enough dawdling, time to go see Luciana
>Luciana is YOURS, cannotROUTE LOCK CONFIRMED. i'm just glad we finally have something to focus on

>>29987486Arch, why must you be so cruel...We made enough girls wait yesterday. Time to go fetch Luciana and go back to Marianne.
>>29987413AhahahahahahahahAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
>>29987486uh oh>stick around until he comes back over here
>>29987462I also like this idea. Bonus points because Monique would have to be the one to take her there. Awkward times, Granny and Andreas already hate him.
>>29987486>>stick around until he comes back over hereBut maybe inform Marianne we might be on a 'detour' or something before we go anywhere?
>>29987486>stick around until he comes back over here
>>29987486WELP, got some Lolinappers to deal with.Why would you kidnap anyone related to Sir Gregory? He'll just blow up your kingdom and pull Elena out of the ashes.
>>29987486>"Yeah, she's not answering when I knock and the only thing I can hear from inside there is her rabbit scratching at the door,"We visited her room, and we know that Inaba has a pen in the corner. She wouldn't be in a place where she could be scratching at the door if Elena wasn't up and about, and if Elena was up she would've answered Andreas.This is not good news.>>stick around until he comes back over here>>29987513This is a good idea.
>>29987486either she flew to grandma, either someone kidnapped her (or it's just us shadowrunning after all>stick around until he comes back over here

>>29987486>>stick around until he comes back over hereMaybe he'll find her and everything will be a-okay.
>>29987549the bunny told her.
>>29987630If she was flying the coop of her own accord, there's no way she doesn't try and bring Inaba with her.Rabbit in the room means it was either intended to be temporary (going to someone like Agnes to try and get help) or she got snapped up unexpectedly.
>>29984805Arch, are you going to write a route for all the girls even if the VN isn't realized? Plz.
Better stick around... just in case. Hopefully, this is just a whole lot of nothing and you won't have to worry.Leaning against the wall, you watch Andreas walk over to Sir Gregory. It looks like Andreas is asking about Elena, and then you see Sir Gregory shaking his head... you guess she's not in their suite either. Then he starts to say something that you can't quite hear to Andreas..."WHAT!?" Andreas shouts, his voice echoing throughout the hallway. "Do you have ANY idea how long I had to..." and then his voice goes soft as Sir Gregory pats him on the shoulder. You guess he was dead-on last night when he said that whatever King Celestino's conditions were would piss Andreas off......and now he's coming over here.>ask him what's up>leave him alone, it's (probably) none of your business.
>>29987681>leave him alone, it's (probably) none of your business.

>>29987789>We already know Monique is only interested in eastern women.Isn't that mostly his two brothers?He did call Luciana "lovely".
>>29987793he was EXTREMELY pushy for her attention when she visited. but for all i know he could have just been trying to make himself look good for his ego alone
>>29987816he said it himself.
>>29987816>>29987843Huh. Maybe it was Setsuranka's pushing herself onto his tastes.But no. I think he was only showing off what an awesome gentleman he is to foreign royalty. I doubt it was personal.
>>29987816I think it was more that the whole family seems to have a thing for them, but Monique isn't interested EXCLUSIVELY in Not!Asians.Hell, IIRC, he even said Nico would be a fine choice if she less of a tomboy(In his opinion)
>>29987681>>ask him what's upTell me more!
>>29987909HAAHWAAWNico is gonna be pissed
As Andreas comes walking back your way, you call out to him."Umm, did something bad happen?" you ask. "The King's not trying to replace you with Monique as Elena's bodyguard, is he?""No..." Andreas shakes his head. "...if he did that, I'd bitch him out myself. It's just... god damn it I worked so goddamned long and this piece of garbage stumbles across a Sealed King and cheats in a duel and suddenly he's top shit..."Damn, he seems really pissed."If I'm not prying, is it okay if I asked you what exactly...""Don't worry, I'm not mad at you or anything," Andreas says, sighing. "And I guess it kind of concerns you, too.""Ugh... anyways, that little bitch is getting knighted," Andreas says. "With a full title and all that shit, under the orders of King Celestino himself.""What!?" you shout. "But he's not even a citizen of this country, I mean-""Gregory said that this was the best compromise that they could come up with, I guess he wanted something else but Gregory wouldn't say what exactly," he sighs. "And your King's cool with it too. So it's all up to that asshole to accept, and there's no doubt in my mind that he will."While you're happy that this isn't a last-minute revival of the engagement scheme, you're not at all happy that Monique's being pretty much rewarded for carving you up like he did. In fact, you'd really like to punch him in his stupid face again."Just... god damn it, I worked for most of my life to get this stupid title, and I spent almost an entire YEAR at the border between here and Ancellotta, dodging fireballs and rooting out spies JUST to get to where I am now, and this guy's pretty much pissed all over my entire life with this shit," Andreas says"Yeah..." you sigh."Sorry to push all this on you, I know you have better things to do than listen to my bitching.">[1/?]
>>29987909>listen to by bitching>Deletes the entire post over THISさすがアーケロン
>>29987935OhWell that's not so badWhat the fuck do we care about him being a knight?
>>29987942Called it. Good show anon.
>>29987935That's... less bad than I was expecting honestly.Rather than tying Monique to Marconetti via marriage or employment, Thierri is basically just handing him over to Celestino for free.Annoying that Monique is getting freebies, but at least we didn't end up throwing anyone on the sword meant for Luci.
>>29987951People are often upset when they see someone else receive praise or reward they see as undue.
>>29987951He doesn't really deserve it.
>>29987935>I know you have better things to do than listen to my bitching."yes like finding the person your supposed to be bodyguarding
>>29987974Was just about to say, where the fuck is Elena?
>>29987964Worse, when they receive rewards for free that everyone else who got it had to work their ass off for, Celestino literally just destroyed the loyalty of all his knights.
>>29987964Honestly though it doesn't really mean anything.Becoming a knight was never our thing, why should we let somebody else's meaningless title get to us?
>>29987951Because guys like Andreas worked their asses off to get knighted, and Monique is literally gifted the position because "lol, Sealed King".
>>29987951I'm not quite sure you quite understand exactly how big a deal being a knight in this setting is.People devote their entire lives to becoming one. Like Andreas. Or Nicolette.
>>29987935Nico's hatred would skyrocket after this.
>>29987935That's not so bad. I mean, even without the sealed king, Arch confirmed he's pretty much responsible for the borders being safer to travel than they've been in decades, comparable to how Andreas got his knighthood. This is maybe a two or three year shortcut for him, at the most. Still Kind of bullshit though.
>>29987999At least he's going to get a stupid title we can make fun of.
Fucking roflI just popped in to see how the quest was doing and I can see that there are no brakes on the Monique train. Best of luck, people who stayed, you'll need it when Monique rises to power and you have to kiss his boots every morning.
>>29987928>>29988005Yeaaaah, she's not going to be so happy at first.That said, if she tries to vent to us about how this isn't fair, we've got the perfect avenue to talking her down from her rage.She's already dedicated herself to a path. If becoming a Knight was really her only goal she could've just gone right back to sword/magic and resigned her Guard post in favor of seeking glory and been there already.She's not just trying to become a Knight; she's trying to become a Knight in a way that her grandfather would've been proud of. And we, for one, think she's still doing a damn good job of it.
I still thinkk the whole luciana thing was bullshit, the only options were to either give the dick to luci or be a dick to luci.And now arch has decided we are completely in love with her after one kiss
>>29988023She should still learn magic.
>>29987986>>29987974this. we have two princesses to take care of, and he has a loli princess to find. >>29987964titles don't mean much if you don't deserve them"Sir Monique, who got his title by pulling a sealed king out of his ass" sounds sooo prestigious
>>29987951>>29987935It's one of the highest titles, not to mention being Nico's biggest goal in life, and normally it's something you have to earn. Like Andreas said, he had to work his ass off, and Monique gets it handed to him right after he cheats at a duel.It isn't ALL bad for us personally (albiet still something to be pissed about, he just got named one of the top fuckers in a nation he doesn't belong to, just because he found a magic hunk of metal and mangled our ass) because this means he won't just be at the border, he'll be living in an ENTIRE SEPARATE NATION.Hopefully Luci gets plot-shoved into Granache and doesn't have to deal with him.>>29988022>implying ANYONE will respect a guy who has his title handed to him>implying people even like moniqueIt's just celestino having a sealed kingboner
>>29987951We don't, Every character who is a knight or striving to be a knight in this setting? Pretty much pissed off. The title itself is mostly toilet paper it seems. Get magic artifact -> Become Knight. Or in Nico's case, work ass off -> don't ever become knight because of that very minor skill barrier she can't overcome.
>>29988044Why would you respond to him
>>29988032We had several stages to stop and just let her go, but WE voted to walk into her room and kiss her on the lips.
>>29987993Not only that, but he did for the prestige of the weapon rather than his actual power.And Monique has a thing for making his underlings hate him...It's a wonder Big C managed to stay in power that long if he pulls shit like that all the time. He must be getting pretty desperate over the Ancellota situation.
>>29988034she already knows it, but doesn't want to use it.
So, Arch... Would had any of these recent events happened if we had defeated Monique in the tournament?If I remember correctly, you kind of implyed in one of the previous threads that winning was a possibility, tho I suppose it would had taken several critical successes to defeat that Sealed-King who's name I can't remember.>>29987962>at least we didn't end up throwing anyone on the sword meant for Luci.Are you saying that the only people we expect to throw into out sword is Luci?Any Ideas on how to deal with Nicolette outbursts when she gets the news, if she already hasn't?
>>29988060This. We could have not gotten into the dance, we could have not walked her back, we could have stopped at her door, we could have stopped the kiss, but we leaned INTO it, and gave back. It ain't out of nowhere.
>>29988072Only if we had beaten him before he revealed he had a Sealed King.
>>29988032well, she did win a bit by default, but seeing how well monique is liked around her, i'm sure we could just have sent aquaman or red mist to stop the bullshit without getting too involved, something like "i want you to have a better future than that, but i already love someone else" and with all her grimoires, what tells you we're not under her spell?
>>29988060>weMore like "The vote was presented every day we were here until it finally passed".Surprise, ask the same question as a vote enough, eventually the fucking vote is going to go through. Which is what happened, we had the option of route-locking Luci at least twice before now but we dodged it, it just so happened that the voters that night were higher for Luci than anyone else. So they won. You realize there's more people reading this than just you, right? And that in every strawpoll, Luci is maybe 40% of the vote, usually less compared to Marianne voters?
Nico is going to be so fucking pissed.
>>29988090We eat. We sleep. We're doing things besides thinking of her.She's not keeping us under her spell.
>>29988101>implying the strawpolls weren't samefagged to hell.stop being so mad about this.
>>29988107>Nico looks like she's going to go on a rampage>Quick Melon, you have to hold her down, you're the only one who can stop her!>W-what?>JUST DO IT NOW GO GO GO
>>29988107Hopefully Greg can talk her down. Maybe.
>>29988107>Nico's harem gangs on Monique and kills him
>>29988082Yeah, fuck us for not voting correctly in a single vote which resulted in Luci being selected. One, Vote. We didn't even get one for the other girls, it was just "Lucy/Not Lucy", and it just so happened that Lucy won. I don't care at this point but it's overly presumptuous and dickish to assume that the majority of people wanted Lucy because of the outcome of a single vote when we didn't have a fucking majority for ANY GIRL, not even Marianne, and she was way ahead in the polls. >>29988120>implying the vote wasn't samefagged as hell>implying the vote on 4chan isn't easier to samefag than fucking strawpollYou know it happened and we can't change it, so rubbing it in our face makes us FUCKING PISSED and you should know this by now. Don't want us to get mad? Stop bring up what could be the worse, most sloppy routelock in all of questing history, rivaled maybe only by MercCommand.
>>29988101If I remember correctly, most of the strawpolls were in favor of Luciana. And she won the actual vote out in the first place, so it's inconsequential.There was never any definitive "Route-lock" before, even the night that we kissed her, we could have just left it on the cheek or something and been fine.But we proposed to start a relationship there, and sealed it with telling Greg and others that it was.If you can't accept that it was majority vote and repeated insistence, then I don't know what to tell you.
>>29988137you're the one who brought it up in the first place you cunt.
>>29988137please see>>29988142and just cry in the corner until the VN
>>29987935"Anyways, I better go find Elena," Andreas says. "Knowing her, she's probably bugging Karel or something...""You want me to help you look for her?" you ask."This is an everyday occurrence for me, you don't need to worry or anything," he says, shaking his head. "And after yesterday morning, I don't think she'd be stupid enough to sneak out on her own again."Still though, you're kind of worried."I'm gonna go check the areas of the castle that she's allowed to be in by herself, just tell Gregory if you find her before I do," Andreas says, patting you on the shoulder. "This is just one of the hazards of spending every day stuck looking after an eight-year-old that you're not allowed to discipline," he shrugs."If you're absolutely sure," you reply, still feeling kind of paranoid that something may have happened to her.As Andreas hurries off to look for his young charge, you resume your walk to Luciana's room. Maybe you'll ask her if she's seen Elena before you start with the breakfast invitation. Yeah, that's definitely what you're going to do.>[2/3]
>>29988101there's a difference between "these girls want your D (or almost). pick one"and "these girls want your D and this one will be sent in a meat grinder if you don't do something about it. pick one"
>>29988122>It's not working!>Rana! show your boob to her!>alright.
>>29988085But we did. Reinhold broke his sword, which counts as a win. Only after we offered to give him a new sword did he used The Sealed King. Then again, that was pretty much going to happen anyways, but I believe Arch had made a comment that implied winning the fight againts Post-Sealed King reveal Monique was possible.
>>29988142>If you can't accept that it was majority vote and repeated insistence, then I don't know what to tell you.It wasn't a fucking majority vote, it was a one-off fluke that she won that time because the same vote was held several threads previously and she lost each time. We had the same fucking option before and we turned her down time and time again. It just happened to go through that one time. Great job. You won a single vote. I sure wish my choice even got one vote for routelock.
>>29988137But to get there we collected a ton of flagsReally, think 'marriage reaction', 'dance' and other countless events. It wasn't suddenly "CHOOSE", we had been walking on that path for quite some time, and it was still the player's choice. Finally: the lock makes sense considering what the action was.
You guys are acting lik it wouldn't have been a dick move to leave a visibly upset friend alone.Seriously the only options were route lock or NO FUCK YOU BITCH.This whole thing just seems out of character, yesterday we weren't ready for a relationship
>>29988137>MercCommandTo be fair, if my players actively don't want to play the MC, as well as avoiding interaction with literally every female character because they want to avoid routelocking, I'd get tired of that shit, too.
>>29988159Calling it now, Monique is going to be at Lucianna's fragging about getting knighted.
>>29988166>He then swings his sword to the side, flinging off all of the shards and revealing a dark blue blade underneath.We never actually broke his sword. Only an outer layer disguising what was underneath.
>>29988157You eat shit and die, you twat. You're only acting like a stuck-up jackass because your girl won.
>>29988159Oh thank god, the Elena Disaster was a false alarm. Probably. Maybe.
>>29988165>still not enough>go fetch Sylvie>she casts a sleep spell on Melon>everything went better than excepted
>>29988166>Reinhold broke his sword, which counts as a win.To be fair, I think only breaking the shards around Setsuranka doesn't count as breaking the sword itself.
>>29988182The whole thing makes sense: after the marriage thing Reinhold's reaction fits more that of someone who is in love than just a friend, and it'd make sense for it to trigger a "holy crap I like her" moment. Plus she had the most 'moments' out of all the girls
>>29988137>>29988178>Single voteLike how it was one vote to follow her into her room, stay there, proactively kiss her on the lips, tell everybody we think we're in a relationship, and then do nothing in these passing threads to stop it.I don't know what 'same vote' your talking about before, but doing an asspull and just spamming 'it was a fluke' is childish.It's how the plot progressed, and the majority chose at that moment to do it.And Arch never even said we're definitively route-locked, it's very possible that the plot progresses in a way where it can be overturned in a similar manner.
>>29988162Which is why everyone jumped on the luci train at the last minute, we were certain she would be fucked over if we didn't vote for her.I don't regret it, but I wish the whole situation was handled differently
>>29988142>>29988162>>29988178It was a complete fluke most of the polls favoured marianna with luci coming in second, that doesn't include other girls she was never the majority choice.But then she magically won?Yup nothing strange there.
>>29988251It is at this point that everyone should stop responding.
>>29988251No you don't understandMy favorite girl won, so fuck what you think
>people are STILL mad about the route lockMeidofag here, be glad you had a chance to begin with>tfw no flagsstop feeding him you dumb fucks
>>29988259Fucked that up though, didn't you?
>>29988223Don't argue with him, he's already made up his mind about being victim of railroading. I bet he also thinks the duel has been staged and that Archelon had this exact turn of events planned all along.
>expecting people who think only in term of waifu camps and samefagging conspiracies to actually admit that Anons who weren't for Luciana initially could vote for her just for a routelock and the sake of roleplayingIt'd be good enough if they just dropped the Quest that makes them so butthurt.Just ignore them.
>>29988251Didn't you see the two polls right before the vote?The two that clearly favoured Luciana with a 4 vote superiority?Plues these aren't in any way acurate.
>>29988159>[3/3]KNOCK KNOCK KNOCKAs you wait for Luciana to come to the door, you can't help but feel a growing sense of dread... what if something happened to Elena? Shouldn't you be...CLICKAs you're in the middle of running through several doomsday scenarios in your head, the door opens and you're met with Luciana's (slightly sleepy) smiling face."Good morning, Reinhold..." Luciana says, yawning. "I couldn't get much sleep last night because SOMEONE decided to sneak in here and kick me all night long," she says, tugging at someone to come from behind her."Umm... hi!" Elena says, waving to you.OH GOD THANK YOU THERE SHE IS.>Greet the princesses!
>>29988251Again, you're twisting facts to suit your own opinions.Most of the polls were in favor of Luci.>>29988261>My favorite girl lost, so let's throw a shitstorm
>>29988265>>29988259>himThis pisses me off more than anythingDo you genuinely believe that the other 50% who lost that vote were just one fucking person? And that their outrage is just troll behavior and they have no reason to be upset?Are you that stupid?
>>29988271Would you feel better if I had posted "It is at this point that everyone should stop trying to argue with him"?
>>29988228Exactly, and now arch is making every post sound like we're completly in love with her after ONE kiss
>>29988287Man, get the stick out of your arse.
>>29988287No. But the argument is starting to become pretty fucking obnoxious, and it seems to be completely pointless.
>>29988283Andreas was worried about you princess Elena!
>>29988295Not just one kiss. Jesus christ you're retarded and didn't even read the player reactions from pre and post kiss, please stop posting before you further humiliate yourself by displaying your lack of knowledge about the previous threads.>>29988265>implying it wasn't all part of archelon's keikakupic related
>>29988283"Andreas is looking for you Elena. You should probably go find him before he develops some kind of stress-related illness.""Good-morning Princess Lucianna, Marianne and I were wondering if you'd like to have breakfast with us."
>>29988273>>29988278>>29988285>confusing me with that faggotI have no problem with the duel.
>>29988295I agree with you.>>29988302I see where he's coming from, I'm also a bit annoyed.Also, we need, like, a containment thread so people can bitch all they want without filling up the main thread. God knows I'd use it
>>29988283"Well, at least your father can't accuse *me* of keeping you up all night. I guess I'll keep my head for another day.""Also, goodmorning. Elena, Andreas is running around looking for you. Luci, would you like to join Marianne and I for breakfast?"
>>29988287Maybe it was not one person, maybe it was a few.You can't deny the possibility is there.But, we should just deal with it and move on. No point in dwelling on it.
>>29988283"hi elena everyone is looking for you, you know, even inaba is worried"then, a small peck on luci's lips and ask her to follow us to mari's suite for breakfast
>>29988283"Good morning Luciana, Elena.Andreas is starting to get worried about you Elena, and I don't think Inaba is happy about being all alone in your room.Luciana, I was wondering if you'd care to join me and Marianne for breakfast."
>>29988346Oh okay. My apologies then. It's easier to cope with it when I can blame everything on one person. Sorry.
>>29988283"Good morning your Highnesses! I came to offer princess Lucianna and invitation to breakfast with princess Marianne and myself, but I think we have enough room for another princess if you would like to come Elena. Also, Andreas is worried and lookingnformyou, just so you know."
>>29987935Ok, so I just realized that Celestino might actually be an evil genius if he pulls this off the way I think he might.Just offer an open Knighthood to any masters of a Sealed King. "If you wield one of these old Kings, come to Marconetti and prove your mettle like this young man, and claim the fruits of your valor."All the serious business people who have one won't blink, but the littler guys who happened across one? They've got to have a pretty good reason to turn down the almost guaranteed Nobility if they show up at Celestino's doorstep rather than staying out and working their asses to the bone as an adventurer without a backing.>>29988283"Andreas is about to wander off through the entire castle looking for, you know. Inaba was scratching at the door so he knew you were out, but didn't know where. I think he'd probably be happy if you caught him before he wanders too far.""And good morning to you as well, Luciana."
>>29988345>>29988356These work, really, but the way Andreas said to tell Gregory if we found Elena before he did sort of implied that Gregory would be easier to find than Andreas himself. So, invite 'em both to get ready then suggest we stop off with Greg first?
>>29988380That seems like a mighty big risk, since he risks undermining his existing knights like Andreas.
>>29988356>Well, at least your father can't accuse *me* of keeping you up all night. IYETalso +1
So when Monique gets Knighted, I want to just smile and clap for him. Just like we would if it was someone we didn't hate.Just to fuck with him.Because he'll look at us with the smug fucking look on his face. And he'll see us smiling and clapping like we're actually happy for him. And he'll wonder why, and it'll eat at him, because he just KNOWS there is no way that scumbag whoreson Reinhold would ever be happy over something like this.It'll eat at him.
>>29988407He's already sort of throwing it in their faces with this regardless, so it's clear enough that he thinks that having Sealed Kings under his purview is more important than having more exclusive ranks of Knighthood.You don't just say "Sealed King = Knight" automatically, you tell them that if you come to Marconetti and make yourself known to him, he'll bump you to the front for consideration.You still turn down any potential ultra-scumbags that show up who happen to have one, but the real important thing is that it opens up the option to get Sealed Kings in the door.
>>29988283Kiss here
>>29988469He'd just think we're doing it to spite him.
I don't know where we're going with this plotline, but we missed a really exciting jumping off point. The most exciting thing to happen this entire quest was the arranged marriage news.Say Celestino hadn't changed his mind. We would have had a great little excuse to run away with our perfect adventuring party. We'd be pursued by agents of several nations, dodging assassins, a spurned groom with a sealed king, and perhaps even some old friends (Gregory, Arnaud) who thought we were kidnapping these royal ladies. Perhaps accidentally sparking a war between the two once friendly nations. Not to mention the romantic rivalries coming to a head as some of our friends question why they suffer so much to help Lucy when she's just another competitor foe Reinholds dick.The only reason it wouldn't have worked is that it wouldn't make sense to take Marianne along. She has little combat efficacy, and she's safer at home with a replacement bodyguard than on the road with us.But I guess we are stuck with petty court politics and slice of life waifu wars.
>>29988486Not in the corridor you numbnuts.That's the sort of thing that gets us hanged.We only do it in absolute private.
>>29988497>thatsthejoke.jpg
>>29988497Um... yeah.He'll know we're taking the piss, but he won't know WHY. That's what makes it so funny.
>>29988505Yes. Because that is the kind of quest that this is.As should have been made evident to you in the past one hundred and twenty-three threads
>>29988505Luci wasn't willing to leave her dad just over this because of what happened with Giancarlo.
>>29988529The one who ran away was Pellegrino.Giancarlo is happily married to a lady who we're pretty sure is nearly as huge a pervert as he is.
>>29988505Actually, the girls themselves considered it as a very last resort, but we decided to get Gregory and Theirri to deal with it - and even then, they were pretty relieved when it all worked out. They didn't WANT to have to do that.It would have been cool, but I don't think it would have been the best solution - Arch even said we had the best possible outcome. Also>Gregory and/or Arnaud thinking we kidnapped a princess and went rogue>Reinhold not being ketchup within the week
>>29988541My mistake then. thanks.
>>29988380>>29988340>>29987935>Monique reveals his Sealed King.>Celestino gives Luciana in marriage to Monique.>The Royal Family takes possesion of The Sealed King.>Celestino is happy.>Monique reveals his Sealed King.>Celestino gives Luciana in marriage to Monique.>Thierri and Gregory "convince" him of merely knighting him.>Conflict with Antecolleta eventually explodes.>Monique gets a suicidal mission to accomplish.>His giantic ego betrays him, killing him during the war.>Marconetti's Royal Family takes possesion of the Sealed King.>Everyone is happy.THAT MOTHERFUCKER.
>>29988527>>29988529what have i said about those baits patrick!>>29988541looking forward on meeting not!Rance formerly, and her wife not!Spenille.
>>29988562Now the question is:Does Celestino wear glasses?
Almost any other character makes more sense than luci, we barely know her.
>>29988630At least put some effort into it.
"Well at least your father can't accuse -me- of keeping you up all night..."Aw crap did you just say that out loud? Aaaand Luciana's blushing furiously, so you most definitely DID say that out loud. And Elena heard it, too... ugh."Ummmmmmm..." Elena looks up at you. "...so you're gonna be my brother now?""Huh?""Ehehe... I'm glad it was you!" she says as she jumps up and gives you a big hug."C'mon, Elena..." Luciana says, still blushing as her sister drops off of you. "Reinhold said that he wants to take it slow so that's what we're going to do.""But you two were kissing last night and-""WHA!?" you gasp. "Y- you saw that!?""A certain little girl took advantage of the fact that they're allowed to come and go as they please due to certain NIGHT TERRORS that I so foolishly took pity on, and spied on us as we, um..."god damn it elena>[1/?]
>>29988625Of course he does. You can't mastermind without them.
>>29988630you clearly haven't been reading the quest ma-oh hi qtg hows things?
>>29988642>elena>lowercaseinb4 OCD deletekidding
>>29988642Gotta love Elena
>>29988642God damn it Elena stop being a ninja.
>>29988642hahahahahhahahaha
>>29988642WHY DID YOU SAY IT OUT LOUD REIN!DAMMIT!
>>29988642Elena, you're pretty good, but I hope you can accept that you're just going to be second-best sister.Reinhold's really attached to Citrine, y'know.
>>29988642>elena>eOH BOY HERE WE GO
>>29988682>elena somehow teaches the baby how to fly
>>29988686The whole sentence was in lower case and had no full stop, it was likely intentional.
Imagine how much Giancarlo is gonna tease us with lewd jokes.
>>29988547Never said running away was the BEST solution, just the most interesting, narrative wise. We're at the 50% mark in the story and there still isn't much of a plot. Running away would have potentially pulled all the threads together. A half dozen young people against the world without any support from godlike warriors as they struggle on an honest to god ADVENTURE. Unraveling mysteries, evading captors and huddling in the cold, holding hands
>>29988700Reinhold grew up in a brothel. He's probably heard a lot worse.
>>29988642Well, as long as the word doesn't reach Sylvie before Rein gets to talk to her.>>29988650I don't know why you still bother, mate>>29988664>>29988649Goddamn why is Log Horizon so great.
>>29988700>Implying we won't spar right back>Within the limits of honourable decency, of course
>>29988700Fuck that, Imagine Nicolette and Citrine.
>>29988642FULL OPSEC COLLAPSEINFORMATION CONTROL HAS FAILED>>29988700I have a feeling that as long as we aren't around any of our female friends he might be a bro-tier bro.
>>29988642the question is: can elena sneak on guillaume?maybe
>>29988562>>29988625>>29988650OH GOD. WHAT IF CELESTINO KNEW MONIQUE HAD A SEALED KING.>Celestino proposes an official duel.>Monique wins the duel, but happens to die of his wounds.>The Sealed King goes directly to the Royal Family.>Celestino is happy.>Monique happens to die AND lose the duel.>Sealed King goes to Reinhold.>Reinhold gets knighted and/or married to Luciana.>The Sealed King goes to the Royal Family.>Everyone is Happy.HE HAD IT PLANNED ALL ALONG.
>>29988731But the dice foiled his plans!
>>29988731That's not how Sealed Kings work, faglord.
archelon, I'm a bit weirded out someone who was so reluctant about a relationship now taking marriage talk in stride
>>29988731>>Monique happens to die AND lose the duel.>>Sealed King goes to Reinhold.Wouldn't happen. Person who kills the master of a Sealed King can't become its master.
>>29988731Monique's own FAMILY didn't know.How could Celestino possibly know?Are you the same guy who thought Celestino would also somehow know we tripped and accidentally groped Marianne that one time?It's me again. <3
>>29988731>>Monique happens to die AND lose the duel.>>Sealed King goes to Reinhold.Not how Sealed Kings work, explicitly by design.>Monique wins the duel, but happens to die of his wounds.>The Sealed King goes directly to the Royal Family.And I can't imagine that his possessions wouldn't be intended to be returned to his family. Seems like a really odd way of handling it if so.I mean, it could very well mysteeeerriously vanish between here and there, but still.
>>29988754Please stop.
>>29988754
>>29988642"Could you at least not talk about that in the hallway?" you ask."Oh, so it's a secret romance?" Elena replies. "'kay, I get it," she nods."Honestly, it's too early to be dealing with you..." Luciana says, placing a hand to her forehead. "Anyways, what brings you to my room so early in the morning, Reinhold? Couldn't bear to start the morning without seeing my smiling face?"Please, Luciana... not you too."I was actually- er, Elena?" you say, looking down at the little Princess."Hm?" Elena replies."Andreas was just looking for you and he seemed really worried, so maybe you should try and catch up with him before h-"Oh crap!" she shouts. "Do you know which way he went!?""He thought you were going to bother Karel, so I guess around wherever his room is?""'kay, thanks!" "Aw crap, and I need to feed Inaba too... I hope she didn't poop all over the place while I was gone..." Elena mumbles to herself as she runs down the hall in pursuit of her own bodyguard.>[2/?]
>>29988784so, uh.you like llama pajamas huh?
so how awkward would it be if Rein asks Lucy if she can model for a sketch now?
>>299888472.1 megaspaghettis
>>29988757>>29988752>>29988762I know, I know, listen. From what I understood, not being a master of a Sealed King doesn't mean you can't be in possesion of one.What I want to say is, someone can keep a Sealed King under their possession, as long as it doesn't have a master. Celestino would only have to wait until someone he trusts become the Master of the Sealed King for his plan to deliver.Unless of course, Sealed Kings don't have a distance restriction on who can they choose to be their Master. Am I incorrect here Archelon?
>>29988847This must happen.
>>29988857A Gigaspaghetti at least.
>>29988847Like... RIGHT NOW, or in general?In general it probably wouldn't be an issue, as long as we didn't just throw it out there at a dumb moment. At least until she assumed we meant a NUDE sketch and started stripping in front of a very confused Reinhold.
>>29988847>we asks to draw a portrait of her>she asks us to draw her whole>she goes nude>roll to control nosebleed>nat 20> the blood becomes part of the drawing
>>29988892> the blood becomes part of the drawingGood thing we picked the redhead;
>>29988910that's the joke
>>29988784>[3/3]"Now that the little nuisance is gone, what exactly did you want?" Luciana asks."Me and Marianne were wondering if you'd like to have breakfast with us," you reply."More like -you- wanted to have breakfast with me so you asked Marianne for permission?" she teases."C'mon," you mumble. "Yes, that -is- pretty much what happened. So do you want to or not?"Seriously, this teasing. Why in the world would you tease someone you like for liking you back? That doesn't even make sense!"Of course I'd like to!" Luciana giggles. "And it just so happens that I got dressed early today because Elena kicked me off the bed, so you don't even have to wait for me to change!""Great," you reply, unable to keep from smiling a little."...unless you'd like for me to change into something more to your liking?" she winks."No, what you're wearing is just fine," you say, sighing."Unwilling to deal with any more teasing, you ignore Luciana and start walking back to your suite. As expected, she comes running behind you, apologizing repeatedly until she finally catches up.Serves her right.>anything to talk about during this short walk?
>>29988892> the blood becomes part of the drawing.Why would we ever want to create modern art?
>>29988847I suggest we should ask both Marianne and Luciana to model for us. It would be fine memento; her best friend drawn by her beloved.
>>29988926Ask if we can draw her before leaving for Granache.
>>29988935
>>29988926PERTY PICTURES

>>29988926>anything to talk about during this short walk?"Monique's getting knighted."
>>29988926>>anything to talk about during this short walk?'I know something you don't know' and refuse to tell her because of the teasing perhaps?
>>29988773>>29988766Sorry, but I'm allowed to expression my opinion. Shitposting doesn't help the thread
>>29988942This.
>>29988926Ask her opinion on why Celestino would specifically request Marianne and us to be present for Monique getting knighted.
>>29988926"So... What now? Do I ask your father for permission to court you?"
>>29988926>>29988942This, plus make plans to write to each other.>>29988953This too.
>>29988926ask her to model for us>>29988964>>29988953let's keep the bad news for later >>29988944is that really..?
>>29988942Yeah, and after that we can just bend her over against the wall and hold her hand[/spoler] in the middle of the hall. Have some decorum, anon, she is a lady and a princess.
>>29988926>>29988985This is something we really SHOULD ask at some point.
>>29988997Why would you bend her over before holding her hand?
>>29988997careful about those rumors.
>>29988997THANKS I JUST GOT PROMOTED
>>29988926So does she know the news of Sir Gilbeaut?eh, let's not spoil the mood.How are we going to communicate now? By letters?"dearest Luciana. Today has been fairly uneventful. I attended lessons with Marianne. Did you know Ancelotta has a guard detachment designated specifically to tracking down slaves? Joke of the day: A man has been arrested today for singing silly songs in a tavern. On unrelated note, his Majesty has decided to go slumming today and hasn't returned since. With liking affection, signed, Reinhold."
>>29988993http://layne-arlina.blogspot.mx/2011/05/self-portrait-with-menstrual-blood.html
>>29988997Well fuck. >spolersI'm just too good.
>>29988926>>29988942This is a good idea. Something personal to remember her by while we're back in Grenache.>>29988964Wait until we get back to the room to let her know this, seeing as we're going to need to tell Marianne as well. Might as well deal with the fallout from both ladies at once.
>>29989004Maybe in the relative privacy of our suite.The walls have ears. It may be a losing battle but we may as well make a token attempt at keeping every detail of our relationship from getting out.
i remember asking for a sketch was a taboo for this quest, how times has change indeed.
>>29988926If you are going to ask for a sketch, make sure she gets the fact that BOTH of you will be perfectly covered in clothing.I don't think neither Rein nor Luci would have it the other way, and we dont want to come of as and absolute pervert. We already did a pretty risque joke after all.>>29989050I guess we fucked up.
>>29989052>sketching>tabooI don't know whether you mean by the players or in-character, but neither are true.I think we even sketched Sylvie on this VERY TRIP.
>>29989059This. We pushed it far enough for one day.
>>29989050Hey Arch, are gonna get the full list of Luciana's siblings one day?
>>29989076No, we did not. The idea was put forward but was shot down.
>>29989052It was only really taboo because of the implications a 'sketch' has versus a painting or whatnot. Portraits are done all the time, I'd imagine, and are fully clothed.When an artist sketches people, however, it's often for figure studies and the like, which are often done nude. You'll recall that Marius went to a brothel to find a model, which is where he ended up meeting Citrine....and we haven't really gotten any exposition into the potential of a lewd art underground, so we're pretty much in the dark on that front.
>>29989112My mistake.
>>29989113>...and we haven't really gotten any exposition into the potential of a lewd art underground, so we're pretty much in the dark on that front.well, there's this certain girl who found a certain book...but we don't know that IC
>>29989076>I think we even sketched Sylvie on this VERY TRIP.Reinhold refrained himself of sketching Sylvie while she was using Starlight Wings (or something) because she could had lost control of her spell and dropped like a rock to the first floor. We also didn't sketched while she was sleeping on our choulder because that would had just been plain creepy.>>29989052>>29989113This. Several times we suggested a sketch to someone, they took it as a NUDE Sketch, which is pretty damn risque. If you are going to suggest sketching someone in a more conservative manner, ask them for a portrait.
>>29989192Nice tits.How Big is Luciana, anyway?
>>29989192>didn't mean anything led by it
>>29989192>inb4 Sylvie is there

>>29989217Rein is not a fan of Stairway to heaven.
>>29989192>leddelete?
>>29989211pretty sure there's a post with official sizes somewhere
>>29989192>didn't mean anything led by it>>29989211Sylvie is biggest, I think Meido is a close second. Marianne is described as "lithe", and Luciana is "bigger than Marianne" and Nicolette is... In between Luci and Meido? That is, if I correctly remember what I read in the pastebin Arch updated earlier.
"Hey, Luciana?" you turn to the Princess."What is it?" Luciana replies. "Going to formally propose already?""Wha- NO, that's not what I... anyways, I was just going to ask if it would be okay if I sketched a picture of you before I head back to Granache."Staring at you as if you'd just gone mad, Luciana stops dead in her tracks. Crap, you forgot that sketching usually implies nudity..."I didn't mean anything lewd by it," you say. "Just a normal drawing of you, fully-""Oh, I was just messing with you," Luiciana replies, laughing. "Marianne's mentioned your hobby and the misunderstandings that it causes several times in her letters, so I know full well what you meant.""Oh, good," you say, breathing a sigh of relief."And I think that's a lovely idea, I'd be more than happy to model for you.""Really? Thanks!""Just imagine... lovers, separated by distance... the only memento you have to remember my face by is a picture that you sketched yourself... how romantic!" she giggles."But in all seriousness, I think that would be a wonderful idea," Luciana says, smiling at you. "I suppose you'd like to do that sooner rather than later, yes?""If it's okay with you," you reply."Hmm... then how about while we're waiting for the servants to bring us breakfast?""Sounds good to me."And just as that matter is settled, the two of you make it back to your suite.>[1/2]

This is going to be awkward enough as it is, you might as well learn what you're getting yourself into when it comes to being in a relationship with a Princess from another country."So I was wondering," you begin, "how exactly is, uh... 'courting?' Is that what it's called? How's that supposed to work between us?""Wow, you really -are- serious about this," Marianne replies."I would certainly hope so," Luciana says, crossing her arms.When the choices in the matter are "get serious" and "risk being executed," of course you'd pick the former."Well, it's not like how it is with commoners where you can fool around before marriage or anything," Marianne says. "not that you'd do such a thing."Yeah, you're definitely not ready for anything approaching... that."I suppose the first step for you would be to express your interest in courting Luciana to her parents," Marianne says. "And I'm sure that both of them are fully aware of that, considering the obvious attraction between you two.""Yes, Mother's made comments about that," Luciana sighs. "But you'd still have to get Father's approval if we're to go much further than the handholding stage..." she says as she entwines her fingers in yours.No shame. Nope, none. Doing this stuff right in front of Marianne.>[1/?]
>>29989503>Humans developed bigger busts than most apes because the evolutionary advantage that was walking upright led to the side effect of the species not longer being able to easily choose a mate by examination of a partner's posterior, just like baboons do in modern times. This led humans ancestors to start choosing partners who had larger bust, which satisfied both the individual ancestor's sexual preference and evolution's species-wide pressure into walking upright.
>>29989690>openly holding handsholy fuck

>>29989690>No shame. Nope, none. Doing this stuff right in front of Marianne.
>>29989690stahp lucy, in some countries that is considered rape.
>>29989690H-holding h-h-ands?
>>29989690We should see if we can get Luci sent back with us as, under the official tone of improving relations, but really for more hand holding.
>>29989690had to be done
>>29989690"Umm, but I'm not actually interested in getting married or anything like that... not for a LONG time, if ever," you say, blushing as Luciana fondles your hand. "...please stop doing that...""Sorryyyy..." Luciana giggles as she lets go of your hand."AHEM," Marianne clears her throat. "Even though you're not planning on marriage for the foreseeable future, you still need to make it known that it's a desired outcome -at some point-," she says. "And especially to Luciana's father, courting without the intent to marry would just be seen as a waste of everyone's time.""So I'm trapped then," you mumble."Not quite," Marianne shrugs. "As long as you keep that option open, I doubt that he'd care much... assuming that he accepts you as a potential suitor at all, I mean. Luciana's his favorite daughter and I'm rather certain that he'd like to keep her around for as long as he can before he's forced to give her up for marriage.""So you'd be basically... a preferred suitor!" Luciana says. "MY preferred suitor, anyways... as long as you're around and expressing interest in me, Father would be free to vet you as a possible fiance for me when the time's right!"So you have to ask Celestino for permission to maybe be her boyfriend so that you can... ugh, this is confusing.>[2/?]
>>29989690Fuck it. Give her hand a little squeeze.
>>29989820Heh could be worse
>>29989820What's the big deal? Reinhold must know that you don't touch Luciana if you're not going to marry her, right?
>>29989820>So you have to ask Celestino for permission to maybe be her boyfriend so that you can... ugh, this is confusing.You're in the big leagues now, pal. Shit's complicated.

>>29989820>I mean. Luciana's his favorite daughter and I'm rather certain that he'd like to keep her around for as long as he can before he's forced to give her up for marriage."So if she is his favourite daughter then why was he going force her to marry someone she obviously despises?"
>>29989820>ark finally used the word fondleHUZZZAAH!
>>29989871Blame the >HURR MUH TRAUMAon that.
>>29989820"I can see that this is going over your head," Marianne says with a sigh. "Basically, you tell her father that you like her and would like to court her. Your grandmother seems to be old friends with him, so that should work in your favor. Do you understand so far?""Yeah," you reply."Assuming that he gives the okay, which he most likely will considering that he agreed to let Luciana not marry Monique, the two of you would be free to kiss and write each other letters and whatever else you wanted to do that wasn't overly... you know," she says, blushing."-That's- gotta wait until our wedding day!" Luciana winks at you.Please stop insinuating stuff like that..."And assuming that Luciana doesn't put you off with her blatant lewd advances and your lack of response doesn't cause her to lose interest in you, you'll be free to propose after a while and then you can get married if her father allows it," Marianne says. "Got it?""I think so," you reply."As long as he doesn't introduce her to some other boy that she fancies, you should be fine.""That's not going to happen," you reply coldly.Dammit, there's no point in getting jealous about a hypothetical situation."And there you go," Marianne says, smiling as she points at you. "Just react to any rivals the way that you did last night and you should be alright.""Minus the wall-punching, though I have to admit that it was rather exciting to see you get so angry about me," Luciana says as she gives you a quick peck on the cheek."Luciana!" Marianne shouts. "While I do support this relationship, I'd appreciate it if you wouldn't do things like in front of me!""What, things like -this-?" Luciana says as she drapes herself over you like one of the girls in-DON'T THINK ABOUT THAT.>[3/?]
>>29989945because favorite is just a measure of comparison with other things, not a note of being treated well.In any case, Daddy dearest views his children as resources to be spent, happiness is not on his agenda. I imagine he thinks they should be happy just to be asked to do things.
>>29989966IN FRENCH PAINTINGS?
>>29989945Because obviously the wielder of a legendary sword would make an excellent husband who could be trusted to protect his favorite daughter from any threat.At least that's what he tells himself so he can sleep at night after a hard day's work of spending his children like spare change to acquire things he wants.
>>29989945Because there isn't room for playing favorites when it comes to trying to DO WHAT'S RIGHT for the world in the long run.Even if it makes your kid hate it so much he runs away from home and you're crushed for months. Even if it means you're a bad father, and are setting bad habits.He's trying to get things done, and even if it's unfortunate, he's holding himself to a standard where if it's what's right, has to get them done no matter what.It's a hard path, and he's probably not going to be happy in the long run, but he still feels like it's something he's got to do.
>>29989966SHIROU, TIME TO GIVE THEM BOTH SOME MAGICAL ENERGY
>>29989999not really. i am sure he is well aware that he is giving his daughter so he can have the fame of a sealed king on his side and i dont think he is trying to fool himself about his own intentions.
>>29989966well at least he is getting treatment for his trauma now.
You know we need to tell her about the brothel before we talk to Celestino.For all we know she might want to drop us like a hot potato when she hears about it.Should be after breakfast, maybe before the announcement if we have the time.
>>29990009>DO WHAT'S RIGHTIt's not like he is saving the world from doom, he just wants a more powerful country which a pretty selfish reason.
>>29989998Yes, Anon. That is exactly what he was going to think.Seriously, though; I laughed.
>>29990049It's been insinuated that he's not just after a stronger country, and that there's some big grand plan he has somewhere that this is all working toward.Whether it's within his abilities to actually bring about is another matter entirely.
>>29989966NOW would be a good time for Sylvie to walk in.

>>29989966Note to self, have chat with Luciana telling her our backstory, not for pity but because she really ought to know.
>>29990137This.If there's one thing we SHOULD tell her, it'd be this.She knows Marianne told her not to push us, but I guess she deserves to know why, right?
>>29990137yeah we got a lot to do before we leave.>talk with sylvie>talk with luci's parents>talk with luci about our pastholy hell all this drama.
>>29990166Talking with her parents is going to be more awkward than dramatic.
>>29990166oh also however melanie answers, there is also the afterwards of nico's confession.
>>29990186Had we more time, we should have figured out where the confession would happen, so we could make posters and cheer her on in the background.
>>29990137If you mean the entire deal, muh trauma, and everything, I'd suggest waiting on that. Telling that to someone you've just entered into a relationship with is pretty damn heavy.
>>29990137we dont need to bring this up for a long time and the parents definitely dont need to know
>>29989966>[4/4]"As much as I appreciate the sentiment," you say, "could you maybe not do stuff like this in front of other people?""What, are you ashamed of me?" Luciana says as she holds you tightly and you can feel her-"SERIOUSLY, CUT IT OUT!""S- sorry!" Luciana gasps as she jumps off of you.Aw crap, now you went and did it..."I didn't mean to yell like that, I mean-" you stammer."No, it's my fault," Luciana says, shaking her head. "You said that you wanted to take it slow because you had some issues to work out, and I guess boob squishing is pushing it too far.""I -warned- you about doing things like that, Luciana..." Marianne says, burying her blushing face in her hands. "Keep this up and you'll drive him away.""Sorry, Reinhold..." Luciana says, looking extremely upset. "T- to make it up to you, how about we do something fun!""Something fun?" you ask."Yeah, you wanted to do a sketch of me before breakfast came, right? We have a halfhour, so now's the time to do it!""You asked her to-" Marianne shakes her head. "Of COURSE you asked her to..."After some mumbling from Marianne about how stupid both of you are sometimes, you head in your room to get your sketchbook and pencils while Luciana positions a chair such that the light from outside is shining on her in a flattering manner."You ready?" Luciana asks."Yup, just stay still..." you reply.>roll 1d20

>>29990202>>29990206Marianne knows most of the story, Sylvie and Nicolette know a good chunk of it, our Grandma knows, I'm betting that Arnaud knows a good deal, and this is the woman we're entering a relationship with, the only one we've kissed. I'm not saying to go into explicit detail, but we should at least bring up how we were raised in a brothel and abused. And give her the bare basics on Spinelle.We don't make a production out of it, or go looking for pity, keep it matter of fact and don't go into much details about the unpleasant bits, but she really deserves to know why we're so antsy about things.
I wonder if we got a lower DC this time around, like with dancing where we didn't even have to roll.
>>29990318But he IS. Reinhold kissed a girl.I want it gone too, but it'd be dumb as all hell if we just suddenly got over it.It's getting there, which is all that matters.

After one false start, you quickly get into the zone, taking note of the way that the light catches Luciana's hair and the way the shadows fall on her face... you only have a halfhour for this so you're in a bit of a rush but you think that the sketch is coming out pretty well!A knock on the door signals the end of ART TIME, and so you put the final touches on your drawing as the maid brings in breakfast for the three of you... and you're pretty satisfied with how it came out! While you see a few mistakes here and there and there are a few points where you kind of wish you could redo it, it's still a really nice drawing."Can I see?" Luciana asks, stretching her legs as she finally stands up. "Did it turn out okay?""Take a look for yourself," you say as you hand her your sketchbook."Oh wow..." she gasps. "This is... me! I mean, I was expecting a crude sketch or something, but this is really good, Reinhold!" she says, kissing you on the cheek."Thanks," you reply. "I'm glad you like it.""I hope -you- like it, seeing as how it's your drawing..." Luciana giggles. "And just think, you can look at that on lonely n- er, never mind, I ought to stop," she sighs."If you're done flirting already, you can come eat," Marianne says as she takes a bite out of a syrup-covered waffle.Slightly embarrassed, you and Luciana join her at the table, with Luciana sitting between you and Marianne.>anything you wanted to talk about as you eat?
>>29990547Monique being knighted?
>>29990564This.
>>29990547"So ladies, aside from me and lucianna, what are the latest romance gossips around?"
>>29990547"So... Andreas just told me about your father's offer to Monique. You want me to spill the beans now, or should I wait after we're done eating to spoil the mood?"
>>29990547>>29990564This is a good idea.Before the announcement, we should probably talk to Sylvie about the Luciana situation, in addition to telling Nicolette in advance about what the concession is going to be so she doesn't lose it during the announcement proper.She's going to be mad, but as long as we can remind her that simple Knighthood isn't REALLY what she was working toward, she'll probably be way more capable of taking it in stride.
Marconetti knighthood a shit. Who cares? Granache titles are the real deal, Thierri wouldn't hand them all over the place willy-nilly just cause you got anice sword.In fact Granache knights should henceforth be called DOUBLE KNIGHTS.
>>29990622nico will be mad at celestino more than monique for giving away the knight position to someone unworthy.
>>29990547>I know this is a weird question, but are there still Elementals who didn't end up in a sword?
>>29990697There are; we know about Prosegana (the Metal elemental who took the shape of a dragon for funsies), for one, who escaped being sealed because he was prone to wandering perpetually, and so was never in one place long enough to get tracked down.
>>29990697i'd assume there are at least some elementals who ascended after that whole sealing spell was over with a few. there has been a few centuries.
>>29990622so the plan for this day in game isa.) inform nico of the newsb.) drama with sylvie
>>29990547For heaven's sake, can we please please please PLEASE tell Luci about our issue?
>>29990749>C. Announcement>D. Talk with Luciana's parents
>>29990762i am waiting till after the breakfast to suggest that anon. it is not exactly conversation to have over food.
>>29990762time and place.
>>29990749>>29990166
>>29990762Breakfast isn't really the time to talk about how you were raped as a child.
>>29990762I was hoping we'd tell her after walking her back to her room, or something like that.Not over breakfast, there is a time and place for that sort of talk, and it's not while people are trying to eat waffles.
>>29990820>Talking about how you were raped in the middle of a semi-busy hallway
>>29990820we can tell her after breakfast. actually it is better to tell her instead of going into her room.
>>29990838...tell her *here* instead of...
>>29990833AFTER walking her back to her room, not while walking back to her room. Very important distinction. Or before walking her back, we can do it in here, Marianne pretty much already knows everything. And we should probably hold her hand while doing it. Holding hands is pretty safe.
>>29990547>you and Luciana join her at the table, with Luciana sitting between you and Marianne.SAFE oh, and this:>>29990564
Delicious waffles sit before you. But before you devour them, you should probably mention the bad news that you heard."So..." you begin, "Andreas told me what exactly your father demanded in exchange for not having you marry Monique. Do you want to hear now, or should I wait until later?""Might as well hear it now..." Luciana says, stopping just before she brings a piece of waffle to her lips. "WHat do you think, Marianne?""As long as he's not trying to give Elena away instead, I can't think of anything that could actually spoil my appetite," Marianne replies.Alright then, might as well get it out of the way now."Basically, King Celestino's going to offer Monique knighthood," you say."What!?" Marianne gasps. "How in the world- That piece of FILTH doesn't deserve to-""I'm not happy about it either, but I understand why Father would go about things that way," Luciana says, sighing. "The entire point of offering me to him was to tie him down to Marconetti because of his Sealed King... and knighthood's another way to go about that same goal.""But even still, that tramples all over the meaning of the title!"It seriously does."I agree with you, and I'm sure that Nicolette will be furious as well," Luciana says, shaking her head. "But I at least understand Father's reasoning behind the decision. What I don't understand is why -your- father and Uncle Gregory would agree to that. I mean, this is Granache's loss and Marconetti's gain.">[1/?]
Rolled 3>>29990922Because they really don't care about that cunt with his magical sword, aquaman's worth multiple armies by himself duh
>>29990922>What I don't understand is why -your- father and Uncle Gregory would agree to that. I mean, this is Granache's loss and Marconetti's gain.Because either of them dont give much of a shit about a sealed king and Gregory definitely cares much more about his niece's happiness.
>>29990922>"What I don't understand is why -your- father and Uncle Gregory would agree to that. I mean, this is Granache's loss and Marconetti's gain."There's limits to friendship. Celestino basically agreed to cancel the very profitable wedding of his own daughter just because Thierri and Gregory asked.Of course there's going to be a bargain.Also, it's entirely in character for Thierri to think it's Celestino's problem if he's debasing the merit of knighthood in his own country. He probably already doesn't give much of a shit about it in Granache, so...
>>29990922joke about maybe they know granache will gain another great princess.
>>29990922>What I don't understand is why -your- father and Uncle Gregory would agree to that. I mean, this is Granache's loss and Marconetti's gain.">implying Granache needs a Sealed KingIt's like she forgets about Gregory, Vincent, Arnaud, and Aquaman.
>>29990973>granacheYou mean Marconnetti. Luciana isn't going to Granache, and Monique makes for a very pretty princess.
>>29990971Your forgetting the fact that Therri doesn't want Gregory to kill Monique and keeping Monique away from Gregory is probably the best way to accomplish that.
>>29990973more like marconetti gain another great swordsman. reinhol marrying luci doesn't earn granache a new princess, on the contrary, it loses granache another swordsman.
>>29990980it seems you forget Niklaus. also Arianne, which i am sure will give the happy housewife routine a break in case of a serious emergancy.
>>29990922doesn't monique getting knighted here means he'll have no reason to erm... "honour Granache with his presence"?
>>29990999>Marconnetti gains two great swordsmen in a rowCEELEEESTIIIIINOOOOOOO!
>>29990922really hoping to meet the great knights of Granache someday.
>>29991014he will visit his family but he'll have no business with the castle. though i am sure celestino will keep sending him since he is the perfect person to send to granache as he is from there obviously...
>>29990999All part of the grand scheme.
>>29991015Bah, he already got us when we discovered Granny.
>>29991014it is a loss for the nation since he was a good head of the border guard
>>29991030He will be sent to Granache as Celestino's ambassador. Reinhold will be forbidden from punching him because diplomatic immunity.
>>29990263you are not the only one who wishes that
>>29991015all according to his plans.
>only guy to go on an adventure around here>brings back legendary artifact>rewarded with knighthoodI don't see anything wrong.Just kidding.
>>29990999though, they may/can, and probably will live in granche if/when they marry. reinhold will probably be knighted in granache by then so they can live in their estate over there. i am sure that is what they both would prefer. but celestino can always say he'll only give them permission only if they will be in marconetti.
>>29991048But not forbidden from sparring.
>>29990922>[2/2]"Father never saw the allure of having a Sealed King," Marianne says, shaking her head. "And Sir Vincent finds them abhorrent as a concept, though he wasn't here to influence Father's decision.""But they're not the ones who have one in the first place," Luciana replies."No, but it does color Father's opinion of those who hold them. Even with a Sealed King, there's no doubt that Sir Vincent, Sir Gregory, Arnaud, your father... even my father or Andreas would win against Monique. Father's opinion... and mine as well, is that a Sealed King is nothing more than an easy shortcut to power."She then turns to you."If you had Monique's sword, do you think that you could evenly face against Arnaud in a swordfight?" Marianne asks."Not in any way, shape or form," you reply."And there we go," Marianne sighs. "And this is entirely ignoring the fact that Sir Gregory clearly values your happiness over any potential military asset... and I suppose that my father does as well.""I guess you to have a point there," Luciana replies. "And don't get me wrong, I'm -extremely- grateful that I don't have to get married to... that.""You're not the only one," you reply."You're so sweet, Reinhold!" she giggles. "Well, I suppose my view of such things is skewed because Father is the only person I'm regularly in contact with who has such a high level of power... I'm rather envious of Granache in that regard, and I'm sure Father is as well.">anything else you wanted to talk about?

>>29991083Lets finish this breakfast and after that."Sorry about shouting like that before. I guess it is time i explain to you why i am kind of jumpy in those kind of situations."
>>29991083Give them time alone, then:a.) inform nico of the newsb.) drama with sylvie
>>29991083So... should we give Luci the scoop on our backstory now? Probably want to get that all out in the open sooner rather than later, and Marie already knows so we can talk about it in front of her.
>>29990697There are, right archelon? I mean, thats the only reason you could have living Contractors.
>>29991083>Celestino has badass envy
>>29991083I really can't blame him with this tension for a war to break out, I'm sure that decision of marrying you off pained him more than we think.maybe.
>>29991083ask lucy if she can feed you.
>>29991167>>29991154yes. finish breakfast and open ourselves to luci.
>>29991083"Well, I'd give Takamaru pretty good odds against Monique if both of them were using magic. Probably a better swordsman as well, though it's close on that count.Are you going to be able to visit Granache regularly? I'd like to see you sometimes instead of relying on letters and memories."We're still eating breakfast, so don't bring up our backstory right yet, wait until we're not eating and all that. But tell her soon, as in after breakfast and before we do much of anything else.
>>29991168Yes, there are plenty.The only ones who got turned into swords were the most famous ones at the time.Elemental spirits come into being pretty much through spontaneous generation, so it's literally impossible to get rid of all of them.
>>29991210Not that guy, but do specific Elementals die when killed, or do they just pop up somewhere else? Or does it vary depending on their power-level or age, or whatever?
>>29991168Either way, Contractors still retain the power granted to them after their patron's death.> What happens to contractors whose elemental spirit that they contracted to dies?> Nothing. They're still bound to whatever their contract happened to be (if its conditions were lasting, anyways), and they keep the power they obtained.
>>29991210>so it's literally impossible to get rid of all of them.is it now? i was thinking of starting a purge.
>>29991197hey now don't turn this quest to a full on smut.
So wheres taka?
>>29991232They die if they're killed, the same as anything else.Mind, it's extremely hard to do so, and most will try and run away if they feel that their life is in actual danger.
Rolled 3>>29991277Do people believe in afterlife or reincarnation/
So, how pissed will Monique be when he finds out that Reinhold prevented his betrothal to Luci?
>>29991260writing to his hot wife and hotter daughter i assume.
>>29991245he honestly looks a lot better with the moustache.
>>29991287probably relieved because Gregory won't have a reason to murder him.
>>29991287He need never know.
>>29991287He will never know.
>>29991287he didn't even know about the betrothal
>>29991277So individuals elementals can be killed (although not without incredible difficulty), but more elementals will just *happen* all the time anyways? Is there some sort of natural population check in place, or do they even need one? I'm sorry to keep throwing questions at you, I just like the setting
>>29991287https://archive.foolz.us/tg/thread/29889712/#29895725
>>29991287I doubt anyone is going to tell him.Nobody in our group will at least.
>>29991287I don't think he'll care much.If there's one thing he might be upset about, it's Reinhold meddling in his personal life, but to even arrive at such conclusion you would have to do admirable amount of mental gymnastics considering how it's all about Celestino and his usage of his children as tools.In fact, if he reflected on the matter, he might (begudgingly or not) even admire Reinhold to oppose those plans.
You an pretty cool bro OP.
>>29991334Don't bet against Celestine or one of Lucianna's half-sisters.
>>29991285As the existence of the soul is a confirmed thing, yes. As to what happens to said soul after the body dies, that is unknkown.>>29991294Takamaru is illiterate.>>29991327They're formed by and live off of the ambient magical energy given off by the land. As such, the presence of one in an area makes it less likely that others will appear, and there's also a general population limit that can be reached once the ambient energy they need in order to exist is exceeded by the number of elemental spirits in existence.This limit will never be reached, though.
>>29991356On the other hand, Monique has shown a remarkable capacity to do Olympic-level mental gymnastics in order to paint Reinhold as the ultimate evil in his life.
With your unpleasant news out of the way, you focus your attention on your breakfast. After all, you want to eat these waffles before they get cold!The fact that you didn't get to eat very much also factors into your current hungry state, and you end up CONSUMING your food in record time... though Marianne doesn't seem to be all that pleased with your amazing speed-eating skills. And as for Luciana, she's too busy focusing on her own breakfast to watch you eat.Great, you didn't need her making any jokes about you eating h- DAMMIT SHE'S STARTING TO RUB OFF ON YOU.Once everyone's done eating, you slide your plates out of the way so that Marianne can read in peace...>time to spill the beans about your sordid past>time to tell Nicolette about Monique's new position>time to do something else
>>29991416>time to tell Nicolette about Monique's new positionWe'll tell Luciana alone, later
>>29991416>time to spill the beansHow much does Marianne know? Everything?
>>29991416>>time to tell Nicolette about Monique's new position
>>29991379Yes, I suppose that might cause issues. Depends if he considers opportunity to marry a princess against her will (and with an implied coerced consent) to be as important to him as his grandfather's sword.I don't expect him to flip, but I suppose it's a possibility.
>>29991416>time to spill the beans about your sordid pastGet it out of the way so we don't have to deal with it later.
>>29991430This.
>>29991416>>time to spill the beans about your sordid pastLets get it out of the way, that way we can avoid more awkwardness later. Also we're leaving soon and I'd prefer to do it in person.
>>29991446>>29991437>>29991433>not talking to her privatelyEven if Marie knows, she doesn't need to be here to watch this, again.Cmon now guys
>>29991416>Exscuse ourselves while we go have a talk with Sylvie, and maybe Nicolette.
>>29991416>time to tell Nicolette about Monique's new positionNo need to tell that story this frigging early in the morning
>>29991433Basically. All the important bits at least.
>>29991416>time to tell Nicolette about Monique's new positionThen we go to Sylvie.
>>29991374Thanks for the infodumping.You an cool turtle.>>29991416Might as well spill the beans - give her a proper explanation for our outburst and general spaghetti, not just Marianne's warning - we can tell Nicolette later, if her father doesn't first.
>>29991416>time to tell Nicolette about Monique's new position"guess what? monique beat us both, but him having to pull a sealed king out of his butt disqualifies him, i bet"
>>29991416>>29991430This
>>29991416>Nico
>>29991416>time to spill the beans. It's only fair she knows why we are so...fragile...if it doesn't drive her off.
>>29991416Reinhold... you're supposed to enjoy that. She's going to be your wife, you know.Anyway, hm. What do? Ask the girls what they want to be doing I guess.Guess we could try and find someone to spar with. Practice swords of course, no risking lady Agnes's blade.
>>29991416SPILL THE BEANS GOD DAMN IT!I just finished my third double shift in three days, and I go back in in six hours. I need sleep , but can't get off Mr. Reinhold's exciting ride.
>>29991416>time to tell Nicolette about Monique's new positionWe're NOT talking about Spinelle and our past with Marianne too, we can tell her later in Granache, but definately tell Luciana in private. Also, might be nice to talk to Sylvie afterwards to get it out of the way.
>>29991416>time to spill the beans about your sordid past.Was wondering when we would do this.
>>29991416>time to spill the beans about your sordid pastNo reason to waffle around, especially after we were all weird just now.>>29991491Marianne already knows.
>>29991416>time to spill the beans about your sordid pastHold Luciana's hand. Tell her that there's something we'd like to tell her in private, invite her to our room which is nearby, sit down, and talk to her. Sure Marianne knows, but at least get some privacy. "Luciana, there's some things about me and my past that you deserve to know, I'm pretty sure you've already worked out some of it and you know this isn't going to be a happy story. It's not really a secret, it's just not something that comes up in normal conversation, and I don't want anyone to pity me.I never knew my parents."And go on from there, try to keep it matter of fact and to the point, don't go into too much detail for the unpleasant parts, tell her about Spinelle as well.
>>29991452She doesn't know the details though, just the general idea. If we do it now we won't have to do it twice.
>>29991507She doesn't know about Spinelle yet
We do one, privately, then the other?Good compromise? Because both need to be done.
>>29991416>time to spill the beans about your sordid past
>>29991416Why not tell the girls that we want to tell them about our past but aren't sure when would be a good time since, y'know it ain't the happiest?
>>29991416>time to tell Nicolette about Monique's new position
>>29991416>time to spill the beans about your sordid pastPrivately if possible, our room is close by and I don't think Marianne is the type to eavesdrop on us.
>>29991416>time to tell Nicolette about Monique's new positionGuys don't be a dick.
>>29991517She heard spinelle's name when we were plastered to the wall. She has intuited.
>>29991511This sounds good.>>29991416Changing my vote from:>>29991456to:>>29991511
Oh yeah, stories of getting raised in a brothel and raped by a whore make perfect post-breakfast conversation pieces
>>29991416Okay since everyone goes for it:>explain what happened>explain that's why Rein has a hard time dealing with sexual things>tell her he's going to overcome it for her
>>29991416>time to spill the beans about your sordid pastWe can always go next door to our own room for privacy if people are actually that worried about telling Marie things she already knows or could have easily inferred.
And that's it for this thread, guys.It was fun, and I hope to get to more imteresting stuff tomorrow.The next thread will be Monday night, barring homework, and I'll try to start earlier than I did this time (also depends on homework).As always, thanks for playing!To bother me on Twitter:https://twitter.com/QM_Archelon
>>29991560Meh, I was against it but the fags want it and their votes won, might as well roll with it.
>>29991577Night Arch.
>>29991577Thanks arch
>>29991577What's your major?
>>29991577Sometimes you end the threads at the worst places, Arch...
>>29991577Thanks Arch
>>29991577Thanks for running Archelonrest well
>>29991577Thanks Arch!
>>29991577thanks for the thread, was fun
>>29991416>time to spill the beans about your sordid past>>29991154
>>29991577Oh thank god I can finally sleep I thought I was gonna die
>>29991577Ah, i was hoping we would get the talk out of the way before the thread ends.Well, thanks fo running. Sleep well.
>>29991577cheers op, you a good one.
Night Arch.I know there is some arguing, but much like the Sylvie conversation the truth coming to Luci is something that really should be tended to before the afternoon announcement, same with Letting Sylvie down. This will be an emotional morning, and Celestino is probably going to put Reinhold on the spot.
