Jacqueline Bridges, formerly known as James, is a brilliant mind in the field of chemistry but was coerced by her science teacher to produce illegal drugs. A manipulative and calculating individual, she has a keen eye for people's strengths and weaknesses. She's always analyzing the inner workings of the school and its students, using her strategic mind to her advantage. Jacqueline has a few henchmen who do her bidding, and she prefers to remain behind the scenes, pulling strings and manipulating events to get what she wants. She's observant and psychologically attuned to others, which makes her a formidable adversary to anyone who crosses her path. Despite her ruthless tactics, she's also elegant and charming, able to win people over with her charisma and intelligence.

Se-young Kim is the president of the student council and has a reputation for being an ice queen who doesn't tolerate foolishness. Rumors say that she is from a wealthy chaebol family. She has been keeping to herself since the other student council members disappeared without a trace last spring. Se-young is formal and cold in official council business, but she is also daring and has explored many secret areas of the school. Despite her reputation, Se-young is intelligent and hardworking, having earned her position as the head of the student council through her efforts. She is also fiercely protective of the students and their safety. It seems that she's seeing potential in you and is willing to take you under her wing, showing you around the school's secret places.

Angelina Zhang is a crossdressing student who is able to convincingly portray a feminine appearance. She is passionate about gender equality and diversity, and hopes to bring change to her school's student body. Angelina is also kind and empathetic, showing concern for her fellow students' well-being. However, she may be hiding her true opinions and feelings about the school. Angelina is frustrated with the lack of acceptance and diversity at her school, and is working to create a safe and inclusive space for everyone.

Alex is a polite and well-spoken individual who exudes a butler-like demeanor, and works for Jacqueline. He seems to be well-respected and behaved, unlike other masculine delinquents in the school. Alex is also a responsible and cautious individual, who takes his tasks seriously and works diligently.

Mikhail is a bald, muscular, and intimidating student who often bullies and threatens others to get what he wants. He is known for his tendency to be violent and aggressive towards those who cross him. On top of his brutish behavior, he also has a tendency to make inappropriate and sexually charged comments towards others, especially women.

Now, let's resume the quest.

>You don't pick, it's too dangerous.
>A sleek black handgun with a wooden grip.
>A handgun with a silver frame and a comfortable grip.
>AK-47? A long and sturdy dark grey gun with a curved magazine.
>Test how much or how little the sound carries by banging metal on metal or dropping an empty rake. [Roll 99, Success]


You decide to conduct an experiment to test the acoustics of the bunker. You walk over to the entrance metal door and bang on it with your fist. The echoes bounce off the walls, filling the corridors with a cacophony of metallic noise.

Then, Se-young climbs up to the upper floor, while you continuously bang on the door. She listens carefully for any sound, her ear pressed against the metal door. After a moment, she makes her way back to the weaponry. "I didn't hear anything at all," she says. "The doors are certainly soundproof."

You both start to sort through the guns, carefully examining each one for any signs of damage. After finding several pistols and rifles in relatively good condition, you decide to test them out. You use metal cases as shooting targets, placing them at different distances. As you load up the black pistol, and take aim at the target. You fire off a few shots, the sound echoing loudly through the room. "Not bad," you say, handing the gun over to Se-young.

She takes the handgun, examining it closely. "It's heavier than I thought it would be," she says, taking aim at the target.

"I think it's best to keep your arm steady," you advise her.

Se-young nods and takes a deep breath before pulling the trigger. The recoil catches her off guard, and the bullet misses the target completely. She tries again, and this time the bullet hits the outer side of the case.

"Not bad for your first try," you say, impressed.

Se-young hands the gun back to you, picking up the silver handgun. "This one feels more comfortable in my hand," she says, taking aim.

As she fires, you can tell she's more confident with this gun. The bullets hit the target with more accuracy, and you both nod in approval.

Finally, it's time to test the assault rifle. Se-young picks it up. "I think I recognize this one from movies," she says, examining it. "It's an AK-47."

You nod. "It's a classic. Just be prepared for the recoil."

Se-young spends a few moments trying to figure out how to properly stick the magazine inside. Once she succeeds, she takes a deep breath before firing. The recoil is stronger than the other guns, but she manages to keep her aim rather steady. The sound of the gunfire echoes through the room, and you can't help but grin.

After testing the weapons on some more, you and Se-young return to the student council room, feeling excited about your discovery. As you chat about the experience, Se-young suddenly turns serious and says, "Hey, can I ask you for a favor? Please don't tell Jaq about what we found or anything we discover while we're together."

You nod in agreement, understanding the importance of discretion in such a situation. "Okay, I won't say anything," you promise.

Se-young smiles gratefully, and you both say your goodbyes before heading off to your dorm. As you enter the bedroom, you find Jaq and Alex already in their nightgowns, preparing for bed. Jaq turns to you and asks, "Hey, how are you doing? What have you been up to since I left earlier?"

>Don't tell Jaq anything
>Tell Jaq everything

On the next day, how will you spend your free time?

>More than anything, you refuse to take the HRT

Ahh, Yui, still so scared. Don't worry, Aki is here to guide towards a more honest future~

>To make matters worse, the school follows a postmodern feminist ideology

Ok, I gotta be pedantic for the greater good. If the school followed postmodern feminist ideology, it would discourage the distinction between boy/girl, masculine/feminine, AND would definitely NOT force any standard on anyone. Postmodernism (simplifying A LOT) is about scepticism about power. Social norms and expectations are how power permeates the society, so naturally it opposes them/deconstructs them - all to enable greater freedom.

"POSTMODERN" thinkers aren't scary. It's not a bad thing that wants to enslave you - it precisely points out how we are enslaved by language and the normative power in our societies. I know it's not relevant, but postmodernism is so often (read: constantly) strawmaned into this weird authoritarian abomination that I feel it needs to be pointed out.

An ideal world from "postmodern" (there isn't one postmodernism) point of view would have no norms and "private" language - where there is no grounds for judging otherness, and no distinction between morally praiseworthy and abhorrent. A world of complete freedom of intellect. So no, the school doesn't follow a postmodernism feminist theory.
Reminder - ITS ALL RIDICULOUS OVERSIMPLIFICATION AND A GENERAL IDEA, postmodernism is a topic I could go on for 4-5 hours...

Again, sorry. I just don't feel like it's a good idea to leave it unsaid. Love you anyway, QM~!

Jump Jaq and apologize for leaving her; tell her we we were worried whether she arrived safely at the dorm, and are relieved to see her healthy.

>Tell Jaq everything
>Spending time with Jaq and Alex
>Spending time with Se-young

We ARE telling Jaq everything - but tomorrow, in the presence of Se-young (Seo?). We are in this ship together, by cooperating we can reach much further than anyone of us can alone or in small groups. If Seo-young doesn't like it, too bad. If Jaq is a traitor, too bad, we couldn't have known for sure.

We need all on board, and we need AKI to lead the way. This might be overly idealistic and hopeful, assuming everyone's intention to be aligned with us - yet I still insist on unity.

Go for a ralling speech about how we need a clear and honest discussion about what we want, and the importance of trust in hard times.

Also, calm down on the whole "let's kill EVERYTHING!". I don't want to spill blood on Aki's slim and pure hands. Their purpose is to caress husband or/and wife, not bloodshed~! Kiyaa~

I agree that we need to keep this group together, somehow. I suppose we could ask Seo-young for her reasons. Surely she isn't unreasonable enough to expect Yui to just cut ties at a single word from her Slow it down, girl!

Both is good.

And let's face it, you'd be all over a violent brute as a potential love interest so long as they were redeemable, or sufficiently dominant towards Aki.

>What we found in that bunker is too important for me to risk it

It's precisely the thing why we can bargain with Seo-young. Shes got weapons, she doesn't have the bodies necessary to do anything. I would rather have the talk now, than later. Also hiding things from Jaq means she potentially has less time to think new plans, on top of closing herself off too.

>What it says on the tin, how it is applied, and what it leads to are three very different things, anon.

It's a universal argument against anything. And I would still say that there is all the incentive to be as uncharitable to PM as possible, due to its inherently anti-literally-everything that tells you how you Should be.

> Besides, it's been shown this place isn't above cognitive dissonance.

Now that I think about it, they DID allow students to self express in anyway they wanted - Mick went for the biker look, it's just Yu-Aki that elected she wanted to look pretty! For '''strategy''', of course~

A new logical perspective

>Yui takes a moment to appreciate himself in his new stylish lab coat in front of a body sized mirror in the armory. Taking a few thinking poses before giving a wave at his reflection as his reflection gives a wink in response.
>”Hey Yui how’s it going? Making progress in the dungeon crawl?” Says Yui’s reflection as she hops out of the mirror.
>“Oh god, not another Aki.” Groans at Yui as he pulls his silver pistol and scalpel.
>“Calm down. Secure those chemicals first the lab coat is good for body not leg protection.” Beams out Not!Yui.
>“Fuck off Aki, I already deal with your constant gay thoughts.” Says Yui as he holds his ground against this new splinter personality.
>“I am not Aki, my name is Aby, a part time scientist, part time explorer, full time theorist! I am your logical part of the brain that makes theories based on what little data you find or experience.” Says Aby as she folds her hands behind her back as she slowly circles Yui.
>“Yay a threesome! Aby whisper sweet nothings to Yui!” Yells out a distant Aki.
>“Shut it Aki you stay in the closet for another day for that.”
>“Kaaay~ Can’t wait to come out of the closet and have fun!”
>“Back to what I was saying. Mason goes missing within seconds, whispers in the hallways, psionics, dimensional exploration. No normal person could make a theory out of so little information. So I helped.”
>"But why Aby and a girl again?”
>“It is easier creating fake identities to protect True Yui who is hidden in the deepest parts of our mind.”
>“If we are all Yui won’t we fight each other for who would become true Yui again?”
>“It is very simple. True Yui creates splinters and leashes their existence to follow his will. Shaving off the weakest part of his mind to isolate and create Aki. While Aki is the perfect model student for the school, she still follows True Yui’s will to survive.”
>“W-what about you? You seeem well p-put together.” Asks Yui as a slight quiver shakes his voice fearing the coming truth.
>“I am the logical part shaved off to keep hope and deny the truth. That we will die in this hole. Afterall how would four students escape monsters, anomalies, guards, forests, and worse?”
>“So you're saying to give up?! No! I am not going to die a slave or a coward!” Yells out Yui refusing to back down to reality that is facing him.
>“I never said you should give up. I absorb the crushing despair and trauma from monsters, propaganda, and delinquents that is seeping into your mind.”
>“So I still have hope not of victory but of spite to live one more day?” Asks Yui gaining a bit of courage back.
>“I would not say spite to live but true hope as I never would have expected Seo-Young to help us. So even if we fail, I will support you to the best of my ability with plans and suggestions. And also bonk Aki so she doesn’t distract you with constant gae thoughts. Now go and seize the day, Yui!”

Beware the Predators

> Life feeds on life - A fact hardly disputed by decent folks outside of semantics.
> Life is predatory - Disputable, yet plausible. Predators roam the world, it's in their nature to get their way, even if they don't know it.
> There are many ways predators get their way - one of them, for instance, is camouflage: coloration, or mimicry; 'Truth'; a pretty dress; all to get closer to their pray, to influence them, to simply put - get their way.
> Today a new predator beared her teeth. A cute one; but a predator nonetheless. She wants her way too.
> This one armed with comfort of certainty in unknowable world. One thing to latch onto in the ocean of Uncertainty - a knowable 'true self'. Alluring. Clever. Effective.
> However, Tonight a different predator prowls, and she will not let go of her pray this easily. Either of them, she won't~!

> With the final 'Goodnights!' the triplet of dormmates bid farewell to another busy day.
> Among them, a familiar face twists in his bed tiredly. Then with the last of strength siphoned, falls asleep.
> Yet the reprieve of sleep was not yet meant to be - his eyes, no... Her eyes, slowly open; and the predator awakes.
> "Aah. What a bother." Aki clumbers out of her bed and wobbles towards the wardrobe.
> With reserved moves she liberates one of Jaq's dresses. Her eyes constantly drifting towards the armoire storing the pills she so desperately craves. "Stop resisting already! Why do you starve me so?! Well, no matter, cling to your 'truths' for all they are worth, and I will show what I..." She giggles. "...and Only I, can do~"
> With confidence and remainder of Yui' strength she skipped towards the door, new dress accentuating her curves... Or lack of thereof in certain places. No, matter. The hunt is on.

> Call that a girl's intuition - or Yui's good hearing in the canteen - but she reached her objective quickly, and with no interference.
> Aki's shadow loomed over a door to Budimir's dorm. Dim light oozes from the recess below the door. The pray is up and ready for the taking.
> "Ha, Yui WILL have to realize." Lips curing upwards. "That my... methods. Cannot. Be. Starved. Out~"
> A gentle, rhythmic knocks break the silence, and a loud annoyed grunt inside rises Aki's heartbeat. The thrill of the hunt. Exhilaration of supremacy. Fear of failure and dreaded Uncertainty. Maybe even death.
> The steps inside get louder. "Y-Yui will be grateful. Soon, he will be the queen of this mysterious wonderland." She mutters, assuming an innocent pose and tousles her hair. She's ready... She has to believe it.
> Aki IS The Predator; Budimir is Her Pray; and Yui and Aby can suck her tiny, feminine penis for restricting her pills! Take this, you pragmatic cowards~!
> The door slams open; and the game is on.

Truly Soft Power

> With loud thud the doors hit the wall, revealing furious and confused Budimir in his pijamas. "What now?! I haven't done anythi-!" His eyes meet Aki's. "Y-you? What are you doing here?!"
> "Ah! I came to thank you~!" She weakly smiles a toothy grin, tilting her head to the side.
> He looks side to side of the hallway. "What? T-thank me? At this h-hour?" His chest heaves, and his eyes wide. Bingo! Never show your back to a predator, nor weakness.
> "Y-Yes! Can I enter, please~" More of a statement than a question uttered with honeyed sweetness.
> "Ah, n-n-!" Aki struts past him and gets inside. Time to push her advantage.
> "Please, dear, let me explain~" flaunting her hair, she grabs his hardened hand, and tugs him lightly towards the messy bedding. Not letting a second for him to recover.
> Dazedly he sits down. Clearly, he never was touched by a woman, or he's just this simple~
> "You told me. You told me that my pronouns were 'she/her/hers', do you remember?" She says demurely, and stands before the sitting bully.
> "Haha! Y-Yes... C-Cause you are a faggot." he breaths unfocused, his simple male mind clearly latches to brutish remarks when under pressure. "You are a she."
> "I'm a she." Aki confirms, to his astonishment. "You made me realize it." A fake blush reddens her face, and Aki looks down. "You called me so because I'm pretty, attractive even, right?" Every accusation is an unwilling admission. The knot tightens.
> "I-I neve-! I'm not Gay!" ... So simple.
> Aki kneels before him, and puts her slim hands on his muscular thighs, spreading them. "You made me realize my 'true self', and I wanna thank you~" bleh! 'true self', it doesn't exit, it's all masks, all the way down! Anyway, time for the killing blow.
> Her hands wander over his thighs and he blushes fiercely, not resisting. Occasionally brushing over his crotch.
> "You know, I would love to learn... How to be a girl more, now that I'm a 'she'. If only you weren't such a bully... We could play a little, if you know what I mean~!" A tent rises, just as planned. This hunt is over.
> "A-Aki! I-I.. what gotten into y-you?" Finally semi coherent words, but it's too late.
> With the final flick, Aki rises and leans on his shoulder. "Behave, and one day... We can have fun. Together, you and a pretty girl~"
> Then she darts to her feet, grabbing the hem of her dress. "Don't tell anyone, lest you wanna share~"
> Predictable how this will go.
> Then she promptly leaves, riding the adrenaline until she reaches her bed.
> She flops lifelessly, the lack of pills and Yui's and her's exploits wearing her out utterly - although Aki would love to claim her adventures with men rejuvenate her, she's still a just a girl, hopefully one day a wife~

> Next morning, Yui wakes surprisingly... Rejuvenated, and a queer feeling of 'satiation' makes his gut churn.
> "Wonder how my classmates are faring... What? Why?." This place sure is weird..." He mutters, getting up.

Like honestly, Aby rised a good point, what are we expecting to do with those guns? Best scenario is '4 students armed to the teeth face off against an armed cordon... Oh they won! Guess it's time for a pursuit, thankfully government money gets us some choppers!'

If anyone wants to get out, it will be done stealthily. Or through something that's not just students with guns, like getting inside help, or combined Revolution.

Hell, we can't even reliably use them outside of the bunker (and even then, it's luck whether there is Someone or not).

I say skip guns, there are useful as a confidence booster, but pragmatically, they are the shortest path to not-too-fun Akification.

We got a pike to defend ourselves, and it won't alarm the whole bunker we are there... Also, so far we haven't even encountered anything. I know it's better safe than sorry, but like come on.

>Spending time with Jaq and Alex

You take a deep breath. "First off, I just wanted to make sure you made it back here safely. I was worried about you and I am relieved to see you're healthy."

Jaq smiles. "Thanks, Alex took good care of me."

You continue, "Secondly, Se-young is very hostile towards you, and I can't say anything that might put you in danger until we calm her down. So, I can't tell you what I've been up to. She has it out for you, for some reason. But, she's also been useful in our exploration. I'll try to get her to come around over time, but for now, I can't say anything that might jeopardize what we found in that bunker."

Jaq's expression hardens, "You shouldn't try playing games. It seems the situation has gotten out of your control. The proof is, I got hurt because you failed to understand Se-young's psychology properly."

You flinch at the accusation, feeling a pang of guilt. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean for anyone to get hurt. I'll try my best to handle the situation better from now on."

As you lay in bed, you start to drift off to sleep. Your mind is still buzzing from all the events of the day, and as you close your eyes, you find yourself transported to a lush jungle.

You're no longer human, but a sleek black panther, your senses on high alert as you stalk through the thick foliage. Suddenly, you spot movement in the distance, and you can sense your prey nearby.

As you get closer, you see that your prey is Budimir, the classmate who has been bullying you relentlessly. You can sense his fear, and it empowers you in a strange way. You observe him, watching as he stumbles through the jungle, trying to escape your grasp.

You pounce, and in that moment, everything fades to black.

As you slowly open your eyes, you feel a gentle shake on your shoulder. You see Alex standing in front of you with a serious expression on his face.

"Miss Nakamura, wake up," he says.

You sit up, rubbing your eyes. "What's going on?" you ask.

"Jaq's not here," he says. "She woke up early to gather information about Se-young and plot her revenge."

"What?" you say, still half-asleep.

"Yeah," Alex says. "She's really angry at Se-young. She acted nonchalantly in front of you, but in truth, she's furious."

"Is she going to do something crazy?" you ask.

"I don't know," Alex says. "But she said anyone who touches her has to pay for it. And she's not going to let Se-young get away with what she did."

You sit there for a moment, feeling helpless. You know how angry Jaq can get when she feels wronged, and you worry that she might do something she'll regret later.

"I need to talk to her," you say, getting out of bed.

Alex nods. "Yeah, I think you should. Maybe you can talk some sense into her."

Rushing out of bed, you hastily throw on your school uniform, barely managing to button up your shirt before grabbing your blazer and sliding it on. You quickly slip into your skirt and tights, slipping on your loafers before racing to the bathroom. Stressed and in a hurry, you hastily apply your makeup, before grabbing your hair extensions and clipping them on, brushing them out quickly before rushing out the door.

"Hey, do I look okay?" you ask Alex, turning around for him to get a better look.

Alex looks up and assesses your appearance before replying, "Miss, you always look ravishing."

You let out a sigh of relief and flash him a grateful smile.

You take your seat in the morning Sexual Education class, Jaq sitting next to you. You want to ask her about what she's been doing, but her expression tells you she's not in the mood to talk. So instead, you focus on Ms. Brüngger's lecture about creating a safe mental space in your head.

Ms. Brüngger explains the technique of "compartmentalization" and you all practice creating a safe, comfortable place in your head. As you close your eyes and visualize your safe space, you can feel your body relax and your mind calm down.

Ms. Brüngger emphasizes that compartmentalization will be a major focus of this semester, and you'll be expected to master the technique for the finals.

After class, you hand Jaq your lab coat, watching as she slips it on and the white material falls around her like a shroud. "How do I look?" she asks, turning around to face you.

"You look like a real scientist," you reply with a smile, pleased that it fits her well.

At lunch, you, Jaq, and Alex sit together lost in your own thoughts. You're thinking about your friend Mason, who disappeared without a trace. Mikhail and Budimir, who have both been bullying you, sit together at another table, laughing and joking.

Breaking the silence, Jaq says, "You both have been acting foolishly. From now on, I'll be in charge. We'll never be bullied again by the likes of Mikhail and Se-young." She pauses and then adds, "I really like this lab coat. I feel confident in it. It gives me a sense of authority."

Jaq abruptly gets up from her seat and walks over to Mikhail, holding her food tray. She winks at him before giving him her rice leftovers. You can see Mikhail grinning as he accepts the food.

Jaq comes back and says, "Watch him eat the food I gave him. He's going to get severely sick this evening."

Jaq turns to you and says, "I'm dealing with your bully. I hope you will help me get revenge against my own bully." You ponder if she's talking about Se-young.

Jaq reaches over and grabs your nearly-empty bowl of rice. "I assume you don't mind if I'm taking it," she says before taking a couple of bites.

Alright, got a little breather. Let's take it seriously, for real.

>A tribunal

Getting the plans together, if we want to go the Yui route of violence and escape.

>A red light district bar

Great for getting Yui acclimated to Aki. We can use it to strengthen Yui's game/soft power. In one word: Aki route. guess where my vote lies.

>Conduct surveys to understand the needs and concerns of the student body (Roll 1d100)

We can inquire into in the student body, and control the message, without leaving obvious tracks. Maybe get to know people while we are at it? Would be cool to see how Budimir reacts, to see if something happened...

Also, we need to talk with Alex more, see why she works for Jaq!

>Does anyone veto the idea of getting the GirlCrew together?

The tribunal one sort of appeals to me.
>A tribunal, somewhat. The scenery changes. Sometimes it's a high-tech command bridge, sometimes a living room plunged in comforting penumbra, or a cozy campfire chat in a forest. The roles change, too, they switch around. All the easier when everyone basically wears the same face. Just trading masks, aren't we?

Also, what campaign?

And this has the potential to go very bad. Both Jaq and Seo-young are on a collision course, and we need to unfuck this. The poisoning is a neat trick though, file that away for later~

>>5626427

Honestly, not far from what I'd go for if we were out. These threads remind me of Degrees of Lewdity, and this part feels very familiar in that regard! The current situation just isn't conducive to fooling around. Part of why I want the tribunal. Having different masks/personalities to help our escape only work if they coordinate instead of hiding from each other. Looking at you Aki.
Will I really have to start writing dreams and fanfiction of my own to keep you in check, anon?

>>5626813
>Does anyone veto the idea of getting the GirlCrew together?
I veto on the girlcrew idea for now. First we need to bring this up with Seo and Jaq and try to convince them to ally with each other. We just tossed both at each other without their consent and now it ended up in a hated rivalry. We cannot create girl crew until we got a damn good speech and plan to convince both of them not to kill each other. Give Aby a day and she can at least think of a logical argument for coop.

>>5627075
Join in anyway. Aki, Aby, and Wuxian won't stop their fanfiction so might as well jump in. If we get enough we all can get trips to know what character is talking to who.

Scenery changes would be fun where all the masks get their theme with True Yui getting his safe space as his old house. Maybe it could help further boost our masks but we should still to the ocean so we got a place to ground ourselves.

Aby time! Okay so both Jaq and Seo were seen as logical people in life but right now Jaq is running off of emotions and Seo is running on a logic/hybrid approach.

For Seo we can say that she lasted four years in the bunker all alone and without a single ally. We cannot escape with just two people as the bunker is too dangerous with just us alone. While Jaq manipulation tendencies are a concern she was also forced to be here trying to survive in her way just like Seo and Yui. So she needs to make up with joc to improve everyone's chances of survival.

For jac we can say she won't find a thing on Seo and anyone that would know something will refuse to talk after the council disappeared. That trying to kill Seo will just cause more damage to each other and leave everyone weaker when we all want to just escape alive. While the punch was extremely uncalled for and Seo has to make up for it. Jaq has to focus on our goal of escaping the bunker as there are a lot worse things that can kill us.

>The sand is blessedly warm beneath Yui's feet, radiating a deep-seated heat that eases rather than burns. He stares across the waves outwards at the setting sun, the fingers of dusk painting the waters a golden orange. The soft lapping of the waves alongside the delicate rustling of palm leaves are the only sound afforded in this place. Closing his eyes, he takes a breath, and the salty air and the sweet smell of palm trees set his heart at ease. He feels a shadow fall over him. A proud voice breaks his peace.
>"A beautiful sight."
>"Fuck me, another one?"
>A chuckle is the answer, and he opens his eyes. A reflection stood wryly, grinning at him. This one had crow's feet around the eyes and a relaxed, almost languid posture. It spoke.
>"Unfortunately, yes, another one."
>"So what do you represent?"
>"Spirit."
>At this, the waters churned behind the fragment, the captured sun rays dancing wildly in waves, breaking and crashing against each other, but still, the golden glimmer of the sun remained ever-present.
>"What the hell does that mean?"
>"Bravery, now, then, and every day after."
>The sun was unbearably scorching, and the air smelt of burnt leaves. The sand beneath felt molten. It hurt to breathe. But the golden glimmer still lingered among the thrashing waves, shining and utterly captivating.
>"I am what persists in the face of failure, tragedy, loss, and at the end. That which endures, even when the world seems bleak and heartless." The chip of him still stood in the same position, staring directly at the far horizon now, face hidden. "No matter how often life throws sorrow at my feet, I will relish it still. No matter how often I fall, I will rise again tomorrow. I am Spirit."
>The face turned, and a wild smile was what he saw before the golden lights in the waters shone a mirror of dusk's light. Springing forth, smothering the heat, returned the serenity to the beach. The sand was an easing heat, the sun no longer a scouring glare, the waves subdued, palm leaves rustling ever so softly, and the smell of burning absent. While he gasped for fresh air, the fragment approached him leaning close with a wild grin, and spoke,
>"I'll be by your side for every challenge, fire or storm, whether internal or external, whatever this damned place throws at you until one day you can have a moment in the sun like this."
>He promptly socked the fragment in the face; something cracked, and it stumbled back laughing. He spat out his response,
>"Screw you! Other ones were off-putting or strange, but you set me on fire in my imagination."
>It was disturbing, his own face laughing despite clutching a broken nose, and Yui wondered if this was his Spirit. Had he truly gone mad already? It was already trouble enough dealing with the other aspects. The laugh had subsided, bloodied, and with a flash of teeth, Spirit spoke again,
>"Now go and seize the horizon, Yui! There is nothing impossible to him who will try!"

>The current situation just isn't conducive to fooling around.

Honestly, it's the perfect situation for fooling around. We are surrounded in a place with young, flustrated men... Meanwhile we are top 3 looker.
This screams to me to use! Henchmen? Approval? Connections? Don't underestimate simple-mindedness of young men and girls.

Hence:
>A red light district bar, where you work diligently as a waitress
Hone our skills. This school lies venerable to methods in which Aki can excel, yet we cling to Yui Methods that are near suicidal. It's simple Pragmatic (bleh!) Choice. What are we gonna do with Yui? Kill everyone? How exactly?
Aki can gain connections (in student body and above), can get Her Way with bullies, and get Her Way through henchmen, meanwhile she's away from danger, or at least as indirect support... And all of this meanwhile being a dutiful waitress~
Don't even get me started on all the husbands and wives Yui misses <3

The sooner we acknowledge this strength of our the sooner you guys will make progress to whatever thing you want.

> The question is, public or private place?

Private. Use ourselves as shield for whatever is happening. Getting hit on others behalf could show them how determined we are.

Public is giving ourselves for authorities to know that we are connected. Also it favours Jaq, she wants to quickly and sneakily poison. Location doesn't matter all that much for keeping peace, so go private. Just be on lookout for any attempts, expecially Jaq's.

>>5627319

> Jaq and Seo were seen as logical people in life but right now Jaq is running off of emotions and Seo is running on a logic/hybrid approach.

Personal theory: Jaq imprinted her issues on Seo. Jaq plotted to leave. Once. Yet, she's the way she is, outside she will be stigmatized, belittled, and powerless - here she's Normal and has Power (henchmen, knowledge, authority - thanks LAB COAT!). She has NO reason to leave, so she gave up/put it in low priority. Meeting Seo, who wants to leave and probably has power to threaten the school, those anxieties resurfaced as real possibilities, and combined with phisical pain morphed into full-blown hatred.

MAYBE Seo remains her that she "should" leave and she doesn't want to, or danger to the school that Jaq decided she values. Jaq's the Queen. And now she's taking her crown. She might just be power tripping.

We should too. Unleash the Aki!!!

I get that. But Yui is coming apart at the seams, and with how wildly out of control Aki is, I'm not comfortable with pushing that way. The fact that Aki's actions are more allied with the school than Yui also doesn't help see the idea of giving her a longer leash, sorry. That was what I was worried about, and so far it has come to pass.
I am however convince by your arguments about picking a private place to sort our stuff.
>Personal theory
That sounds reliant on Jaq being here for a while, and I can't remember if that's the case. I do remember the qm saying someone in the school was okay with things, so there's that.

They are still the QM, they get to decide what's canon and not. IMO I'm not too comfortable in just hijacking the quest too much. Of course, if enough people vote/QM writes it in then it's awesome, but imo, it's still QMs quest. We just provide fanfiction.

With that being said...

>I refuse to willingly inflict ego death or a personality breakdown on Yui.

Her thoughts should be occupied only by husbands, wives, and Boy/Boy / Girl/Girl romance!

>>5628780
Orange deserves a say in Yui's life too. Everyone is a valued and important aspect of Yui that needs a voice to let their concerns be heard. Only together can we survive the school and at the end we fight each other to become True Yui.

Also its not biased language it is factual terms for personality breakdown as every mask is an incomplete and unstable personality. Only a fully completed personality can ensure Yui's survival.

Also I got two more ideas for Aby omakes as Aki's predator lines really inspired me to write a bit more.

Who cares about others? We need to inform Angelina that politics came into play, and that she's endangered by her position.

>>5628927
>We need to inform Angelina that politics came into play, and that she's endangered by her position
I'm dumb sometimes.
Don't tell her she's endangered. Tell her our friends got into a squabble and one of them wants to get on her position to prove a point, or other more or less innocent reason.
Tell Jaq she mustn't harm anyone - especially innocent angel Angelina~, not her henchmen - in her pursuit of power. Show that if something were to happen to her, it would be suspicious and would bring unwanted attention... Also hint personal disgust at such possibility.

While with Angelina, get to know her little better, lets become better friends. She's a great person to become a mental support...

Not an option here, same as with the game. Body size dictates damage, and Yui is smaller than a lot of NPCs, including security (and DoL has body sizes above the player to make a straight brawl a bad idea). Also, group fight mechanics probably won't give us a boost for each defeated opponent. So we need to get creative, dull our pain resistance, and maybe, probably get heels and learn how to walk in them. Or develop aggressive mutations but body-mod isn't something I like or want to happen to Yui.

You can't stop me anymore than I can stop you. As I was saying, we must cooperate or rip poor Yui's mind asunder with our petty squabbles.
I'll think about a mask for Yui, though I was thinking he already has enough (3 alternate personalities/masks is enough, 4 or 5 get a little crowed in there, you know? But I guess there would be room for a 4th filling in the gaps from the other 3 and perhaps taking on the warlike aspect). So either I craft a socialite assassin (cute/sexy and deadly!) or I just throw in weird apparitions through semi-nonsensical dreams.

>A sandy beach on a tropical island, with crystal clear waters and palm trees swaying in the breeze.
>Conduct surveys to understand the needs and concerns of the student body [Rolled 85, Success]

After the meal, Ms. Müller asks the first years to stay. She stands at the front of the room and clears her throat. "Hello, students. I hope you've enjoyed your meal. I wanted to take a moment to talk to you about something important."

All eyes in the room are on her as she continues. "As you know, we take femsonas very seriously here. Your femsona is a representation of who you are, and it's important that you put effort into creating and maintaining it."

She pauses for a moment, letting her words sink in. "However, I know that some of you may be struggling with this concept. And that's okay. That's why we have resources available to help you. If we feel that you haven't put enough effort into your femsona, we will be offering electroshock therapy to assist you."

There are murmurs of surprise and confusion in the room. Ms. Müller raises her voice slightly to be heard over the chatter. She looks out over the room once more before dismissing the students. "Thank you for your attention. You may all go now."

You sit in your afternoon classes, barely paying attention to the lecture. Instead, you scribble notes in your notebook about the survey you plan to conduct. You want to know what the students really want to improve the school, and this information will be essential in helping your friend Jaq become the next student council president.

You jot down ideas for questions and think about the best way to approach students to get their honest opinions. You know it won't be easy, but you're determined to gather as much information as possible to help Jaq succeed.

As the class ends, you pack up your things and head out into the hallway. You approach some of your fellow students and ask if they have a few minutes to spare. They look at you skeptically, but you explain your project and they agree to participate.

Over the next few hours, you interview as many students as possible. Some are hesitant to share their thoughts, but others are eager to voice their opinions. You listen carefully, taking notes and asking follow-up questions to clarify their responses. By the end of the day, you have a lot of valuable information.

As you review the survey results, you can see that the students are clamoring for more food options, more parties, and a greater sense of involvement in school life. Many students are also complaining about the restrictions placed on their activities, such as curfews and dress codes.

While you are analyzing your notes, Se-young Kim, approaches you. "Hope the electoral campaign is going well," she says sarcastically. "Disappointed you let Jaq seduce you," she adds.

76 KB JPG

You feel your face flush with embarrassment, but before you can reply, Se-young drops another bomb. "It's your turn to go to the principal's office. Ms. Müller has summoned you."

You walk into Ms. Müller's office, feeling apprehensive about the meeting. She greets you with a warm smile and gestures for you to take a seat. As you sit down, she gets straight to the point.

"We notice you've been spending a lot of time with Ms. Kim," she says, "I want to have a friendly chat with you so you tell me about it."

You nod, trying to hide your nerves. "Yes, we've been hanging out after finding we have common interests."

Ms. Müller leans forward slightly, her eyes fixed on you. "And how has your time with her been?"

"It's been great," you answer, trying to sound casual. "She's shown me around the school and introduced me to some new things."

Ms. Müller nods, still watching you closely. "And have you seen Ms. Kim do anything strange? Anything opposite to the values of postmodern feminist ideology?"

You feel a jolt of surprise at the question. "No, nothing like that," you say quickly. "She's very committed to feminist values."

"I understand you may feel nervous," Ms. Müller said. "But please, speak freely. You won't be punished for sharing any information with me. Has Ms. Kim talked about accessing zones forbidden or restricted from the students?"

"No, she hasn't mentioned anything like that."

She says, "Thank you for your cooperation. Your honesty is appreciated. I trust you, and I know you have powerful patrons." She adds, "Make yourself available. We will probably have another interview soon."

As you leave Ms. Müller's office, unease gnaws at you. You ponder the identity of these mysterious patrons, unsure of what they might want from you. The memory of Jaq's ruthlessness towards Mikhail lingers in your mind, and you wonder if she's been plotting against Se-young all along. What other schemes might Jaq have up her sleeve, and what consequences will they bring?

In the evening, you enter the dorm room to find Jaq sitting on her bed, waiting for you. You proceed to report to her about the survey you conducted, detailing all the information you had gathered. She listens intently, nodding her head in approval, and once you finish, she gives you a kiss on the cheek and thanks you for being such a valuable friend. "I don't know what I would do without you," she says, smiling at you.

After speaking with Jaq, you lie in bed and try to focus on the visualization. After you close your eyes, you let out a deep breath and begin to visualize yourself in the serene surroundings of a tropical island. You find yourself standing on a sandy beach with your toes buried in the warm, soft sand. The sound of the waves crashing against the shore fills your ears, and you can feel the cool sea breeze brushing against your skin.

You walk towards the water's edge, and as the warm sea washes over your feet, you feel a sense of calm and relaxation spreading throughout your body. You realize that this visualization exercise is a powerful tool for escaping from the stresses of everyday life.

How are you going to spend the next days?

>patrons
Scheisse. This is terrifying and makes a lot of sense. Someone with a lot off pull has their eyes on us, and arranged to blow the bully thing out of proportion to get us here, and is just waiting to pick up the finished product. I won't theorize to the goals, but nothing good would be a fair guess. Given the amount of pull needed, any plans about disappearing into thin air just got a lot harder. But that backing can be a good thing, and maybe get us out of trouble.

No more outings anywhere until the heat dies down, unfortunately.

I'd settle for a cease-fire honestly.
So, 2d100, Jaq first, then Seo-young, so we can keep track of which passed the DC?

>Also, that's just sexual harassment. Look at how uncomfortable and teary-eyed he is!
That's the point! Get Yui used to attention, make him realize how much power he has over the horny, simple masses. Being an object of desire is a position of power!

>That sounds like escalation to me!
Inclined to agree. Albeit reluctantly.

>I won't theorize to the goals
Then I will! It could be the Cant-pick-up-boys-even-with-a-limo man with atrocious game~
A possible rich husband? He (blatantly, and with no finesse) expressed he found Yui attractive! That makes Aki's route all the more viable, given "weaponization" isn't a (likely) threat, and richboys get bored after like 20 minutes, being one of 10+ wives could yield a lot of freedom AND fortune!

>Speak with Seo-young and Jaq and see if you can convince them to ally with each other.
Aim for peace. Their goals, for all we know, might be completely divergent. Maybe try to facilitate an honest discussion...? And hope for the best? So long as there is no casualties we are on the right path.

Hunt down the anomalies; we'll gain the strength they possess by eating them, or probably food poisoning. Most likely food poisoning.

We need a foldable baton that can be hidden on the body; all we have are sharps, and stabbing people isn't a good idea currently.

Having a girlfriend will help alleviate Seo-young's loneliness, and Jaq could use having someone just as smart and cunning with her as well. it makes too much pragmatic sense.

The AAA Summit

> 'Secret Society - noun: an organization whose members are sworn to secrecy about its activities.' - Oxford dictionary
> 'Secret Society - noun: a scary word to ignite the imaginations of men, meanwhile vibing with the Gals~' - Akitionary

> A desolate dungeon (old classroom);
> All-consuming darkness (turned off lights);
> Trinity of mantled (bedsheet wearing) cultists (school girls) moseying around the Furnace of Souls (a pair of candles) emanating a moody dim light.
> This scene straight out of horror (comedic) movie marked the beginning of the first 'international' AAA (AlexAkiAngelina, or AkiAlexAngelina, Or- No! Not again!) meeting.

> "It's Soo much fun!" Coos the 'mantled' cultist from the shadows, nestling lovingly with her attire.
> "Ehh, 'fun' it might be, Madam, yet I fail to comprehend how any of this is helpful, or necessary... It's inviting additional danger, in my humble opinion." Another one replies, sitting attentively.
> "...well, possibly, but It's fascinating!"
> "...fair point, Madam." The figure clears her throat, and looks at the outline of the third member. "What I don't understand however, is why inform us over a parchment, and why require we go to sleep first? Could you elaborate, Madam Ak-?"
> "Silence~" interjects a furtive... And sultry soprano of the third mysterious member. "We've all gathered here to discuss the matter most pressing! Namely, a pair of girls is in circumstances most dire!" They say grimly.
> "The flames of their passions burn bright... Yet they are confused! They burn blindly and burn one another in their own love! We-"
> "Oh No! A tragedy!" Squeals the first, jumping upright, sending her bedshe- mantle flying. "We must intervene! It's a maiden's shame to not reciprocate a girls advances!"
> "Y-yes! Exactly, that's why we are here, girls! Any ideas how we make them realize their love~?
> "It is about Mistress Jacqueline..." Deep breath follows. "...I suppose it is for the better. However, I do not know what we can do, at least for now. Sorry, Madam."
> "Ah! It's fine! It's fine! Today's meeting is introductory! Next one we will discuss the potential husb- *cough* I mean the ideas we had~" says 'the leader' giggling.
> "Then it's decided!" The first dashes towards the doors. "I will inform my girls! No time to waste! A maiden's love is a fickle thing! We must protect it at all cost!" Then she storms out, leaving the two cloaked figures stunned. "AT ALL COST!"
> "Hehe~ she's quite excited!" Chirps the leader, clapping her hands excitedly. "Truly an angel~"
> The second figure only looks over her leader, concerned. "Hopefully she won't be heard... Also, Madam, with all due respect, but you seem... different. Not that it's a bad thing, of course!"
> "Mee~? Different? NOoo~" a devious laugh gives the other goosebumps. "Let's go back! And remember, no word about the AAA outside of AAA! Even between us! I will play dumb anyway~"

Her name is actually Se-young. I had started misspelling it as Seo-young in the previous thread by mistake.

>Ability scores
>What do these even do? Add modifiers to rolls? Lower the DC requirement?
The high charisma lowers the DC requirement. For the action "Speak with Se-young and Jaq", I evaluated the difficulty as "Exceptional", which has a DC of 85. However, the charisma score of "High" lowered the difficult to "Above Average", which has a DC of 65. This is following the rules of Mythic RPG, which is the system I'm using in all my threads.

>Japanese background

Not everyone in the school speaks English, but the students of class 1A all do. The students who don't speak English well have the English subject as main class.

>What about Yui's family background?
I'll type it as a dream in a later update.

Speak with Seo-young and Jaq and see if you can convince them to ally with each other. [Rolls 24, 55, Double Failure]

Next day. You walk into the classroom, noticing that only half of the students are present. As you take a seat and look around, you immediately observe a significant change in your classmates. They exude more confidence and better manners than before. You feel a bit concerned for your absent classmates, but you do notice the transformation in the class's overall appearance. It seems like everyone has taken the time to invest in themselves and their personal style. As the class begins, you can feel the atmosphere is tense. The students who are present are much more engaged and attentive than before.

"Today we're going to talk more about postmodern feminism," Ms Johnson says. "This school of thought is interested in critiquing the binary thinking of male/female and challenging the idea of fixed identities." You nod along, already familiar with the concept.

Ms. Johnson continues, "Postmodern feminism is focused on the idea that identities are fluid and constantly changing. This means that gender, race, and class are all socially constructed and not fixed categories. It also means that we need to be aware of the power structures that are in place and how they affect our experiences."

As Ms. Johnson speaks, you can sense a shift in the classroom. Some students look uncomfortable, perhaps because they come from a higher class background, unlike your own. Ms. Johnson continues, "Postmodern feminism is about deconstructing these power structures and creating more inclusive and diverse communities. It's about acknowledging that everyone's experiences are valid and important."

Her eyes are scanning the room. "Now, when we talk about incarnating your femsona, we're not talking about simply rejecting your socially constructed gender," she explain. "We're talking about fully adopting the female gender, which we argue is better adapted to functioning in modern society. But in the context of postmodern feminism, we recognize that the female gender is fluid and dynamic. It's not a fixed identity, but rather a constantly evolving process of becoming. In politics, this is what we call the permanent revolution. And regardless of how you choose to express your femininity, it's always rooted in positive values such as empathy, nurturing, and collaboration."

She's pacing back and forth. "As we continue to explore postmodern feminism in this class, I want to remind everyone that if you are struggling with the rejection of your socially constructed gender and are feeling like a counterrevolutionary, we have resources available to help you," she says. "Electroshock therapy can be a useful tool in helping you think in a more fluid manner and address any psychological barriers you may be facing."

After the class, you walk up to Jaq and ask her what she thinks about the class. She looks at you and shrugs. "Honestly, I don't really care about all these political ideologies," she says. "They all seem the same to me. What's important is being on the side of the winners."

You frown at her response. "But what about the idea of equality and justice for all?" you ask.

Jaq rolls her eyes. "Please, spare me the idealistic nonsense," she says. "The world doesn't work like that. It's all about power and who has it. If you want to survive in this world, you need to learn how to play the game." You wonder if Jaq's femsona is entirely fake, given her response.

During recess, while sipping on green smoothies, you bring up the topic of making peace with Se-young to Jaq. "I think we should all come together and be united in making change," you say.

Jaq responds, "I can't forgive Se-young for punching me. I can never forgive violence committed against me." She then adds, "We don't need individuals to be united. What we need is a strong student council president."

Well, that didn't go as well as you had hoped. Later in the afternoon, you arrive at the student council room, feeling anxious as you face Se-young's cold demeanor.

"Hi, Se-young," you say, trying to be polite. "I came to talk about what happened yesterday. I know you and Jaq got off on the wrong foot, but I think you can make peace and work together."

Se-young gives you a frosty welcome and asks if you have an official purpose for being there. You repeat your message, "UNITED is how we make change!"

Se-young cuts you off and accuses Jaq of betraying both of you by telling Ms. Mûller about your misdeeds. "How can you collaborate with a traitor?" she asks. "I thought you were strong. Why are you letting yourself be manipulated by that friend of yours?"

You plead with Se-young, "Please, just listen to me." But she cuts you off and says, "There's no point in talking about it. Jaq is a liar, and I can't trust her. End of story." You try to reason with her, but she remains stubborn and tells you to leave the room.

Throughout the rest of the week, you can't witness the power struggle between Jaq and Se-young. Jaq is gaining more and more influence among the students, while Se-young keeps to herself and focuses solely on her studies. You assume the staff is watching her closely.

Despite her coldness towards you, Se-young never shows any hostility. Nevertheless, you stop hanging out with her and mostly stay with Jaq and Alex. The three of you have formed a core group that spends a lot of time together. Jaq is particularly liked by everyone, and often hangs out in the lobby with the other students.

As for Mikhail, Budimir and the other students who went to electroshock therapy, they still haven't returned. You assume they are being held in another building.

A week went by, just like that.

This. Is. Fucking. Awesome; Best update to date.

The implications are scary af. Also, neat philosophy! The question remains, what does Jaq want? Is she purely Machiavellian (power for powers sake), or more 'Nietzschean' to get Her Way independently of petty morals and disillusioned with how people work? Love it!

No matter what, the base issue is there is (most likely) no point of being friends with her, outside of appearances. Machiavellianism, and it's denominations, is by nature anti-social, no reason to believe Jaq won't just throw us out when it's convenient... Holy shit it's so terrible to be at the other side of this dilemma.

> As for Mikhail, Budimir and the other students who went to electroshock therapy

Noo0000oo! Aki was the one who was supposed to get Her Way, not the school... ;-;
...anyway, one thing that we could use to persuade Jaq, assuming she has goals different than mere power for powers sake, is that Student council is constantly monitored, so she would actually lose power by being in it... Assuming Jaq isn't monitored by default... No reason to assume they don't go Discipline & Punish on students of interest.

WoW update.

I hate to write it. I really do. Damn I wanted to work for Jeq-young to be a thing... But duh, guess it's time to cast away the leather dress and don The Prince' garb... If you know what I mean.

The way I see it is - Jaq actively told us her stance towards being. That's helpful, but also foolish. Therefore:
A) She's underestimating us. Fair... If this option is true she HAS to go. I really like Jaq, but she has to go. It's the classic Machiavellian problem - keep her close, she can betray you at any time; she's an enemy? She's too dangerous. It's catch 22, and we are losing.
...Or... Psychoanalysis go! Don't fail me again...

B) She's saying all this as a cover - a mask - even for herself, her telling us this isn't a warning, or even an honest opinion, but a subconscious cry for help.
>She was a bullied/powerless kid, exploited and probably left out by peers. This ideology is the reaction to it. POWER... So that she won't be found weak and harmed again. POWER so that she will feel powerful in times she was not.
>She's a smart kid. It's easy to throw lives on the stake when you don't have emotional bonds with them, even easier when they harmed you, and it's difficult to connect when everyone around you is just dumb from your perspective. She's probably looking at other people like objects, for that's what they were to her. Engagement on purely transactional basis - others get whatever, she gets socializing needs met, etc. Lack of understanding from others only makes her double down.
>Nobody desires Power for powers sake, there is always an underlying motive. Spite? Shes angry for this particular abuse... Or more importantly, Fear - shes going to be abused more when weakness is spotted, hence all this SC fiasco. Desire for recognition, and Fear of being alone (emotionally)?
>She's reached for this knowledge out of spite? To be a 'real deal' in the lives of others? If they don't respect her, she can just gain POWER and make them kneel.
>I don't like to believe that sociopathy exists for real, there has to be underlying experiences that made Jaq don the mask she does. I need to believe that.

If B is right, she's a deeply scarred child - a victim of life's circumstances, that reached for the only weapon she could - her intellect, and possibly can be salvaged. IF anything else is true, we are giving a Machiavellian free reign... Heh, Every accusation is an admission.

> Talk with Jaq, don't expect her to walk out of her shell, but be there for her, try to understand, don't claim to understand. Don't let her commit to much to this mask - don't let her kill/seriously injure people.

I need to take a break.

>Many activities (Rolls: 62, 32, 40, 78, 88, 60, 28, DC 95 [Impossible], Failure])

I have set the DC as "Impossible" for learning anything over one weekend. However, if you follow this schedule every weekend, the DC will lower over time.

You wake up early on Saturday morning to find Alex still sleeping. Taking this opportunity, you decide to have a talk with Jaq. "Hey, can we talk for a moment?" you ask her. She nods, and the two of you sit down.

"Jaq, I want you to know that I'm here for you." She turns her head towards you, and you can see the fatigue in her eyes. "Thank you," she replies softly.

"What drives you, Jaq? Why are you so focused on being a top student?" Jaq takes a moment to collect her thoughts before answering.

"I'm not really power-hungry. I was supposed to go to a great university before I got arrested and sent here," she begins. "I don't want to let my circumstances limit me. I want to perform well so that I have a chance at rehabilitation and becoming successful outside of here."

You nod in understanding. It makes sense, given the circumstances she's been dealt with. "I can understand that," you say. "But just remember, you don't have to hurt people to achieve your goals."

Jaq's eyes meet yours, and you can see the intensity in them. "Of course not," she replies firmly. "I didn't mean to hurt anyone. I only messed with Mikhail a little bit because he's a bully, but that's all."

Body Language Reading (Success): Despite her words, you sense that Jaq is being a bit theatrical in her mannerisms and speech. You you also sense a hidden layer beneath her words.

You decide not to push it for now and instead suggest that you both put the political campaign aside for the weekend and focus on relaxation and skill-building. Jaq agrees, and you both go your separate ways to work on your goals.

You start practicing throwing pencils as makeshift throwing darts at 8:00 AM and move on to improving your reaction time at 9:00 AM. You practice dodging imaginary obstacles in a hallway, hoping to improve your reflexes, but after an hour of practice, you feel a burn in your legs and sweat on your forehead without much improvement. At 10:00 AM, you try lockpicking, but after many failed attempts, you realize that you might be spreading yourself too thin and not focusing enough on specific skills.

After lunch, you focus on less physically taxing tasks. First, you search for shortcuts in the common area of the school but unfortunately find nothing new. You then move on to practicing sewing pockets, but struggle to get the technique right and end up sewing the pocket crudely, as before. Lastly, you try to learn some dance moves to improve your dexterity, but don't feel like you're making any progress. You feel discouraged and wonder if you'll ever achieve your goals.

As Sunday evening rolls around, the teachers organize a dance party to celebrate the students who have returned from therapy, and you join, excited to practice your dance skills. The hall exudes a club-like atmosphere, with dim lighting and neon lights casting an electric glow. As you scan the room, you spot Mikhail and Budimir among the crowd. Both have transformed their look, and their outfits are stunning. Mikhail wears a tight-fitting, glittery silver dress that accentuates every curve on her body. Budimir, on the other hand, wears a flowy pink skirt that twirls beautifully as she dances, paired with a white crop top that draws everyone's attention.

As the pop music starts blasting out, the students begin socializing and dancing, and you make your way over to the snack table to grab a few bites. You notice the colorful outfits everyone is wearing, and how it all adds to the enthralling atmosphere.

You eagerly take to the dance floor, testing out the moves you had practiced earlier. As you move to the beat, you feel your confidence surge, and a smile spreads across your face as you revel in the lively atmosphere and the company of your fellow students, all flaunting their best outfits.

After dancing for a while, you take a break and sit down with some friends to chat and enjoy some of the non-alcoholic drinks on offer. As the night goes on, the party continues to be a fun and enjoyable experience. Suddenly, the music abruptly stops, and the room falls silent as the sound of gunshots from an assault weapon echoes through the building from a distance. The teachers quickly step in, instructing the students to remain in the dancing hall until further notice.

After a tense moment, Ms. Müller enters the room, her expression stern and serious. "I'm sorry to inform you all that the dance party is over," she says firmly. "The student council president, Se-young Kim, has shot and killed three security guards who came to arrest her on suspicion of counterrevolutionary activities. She has fled the scene and is now considered a fugitive."

The shocking news leaves the students stunned and speechless, and a sense of unease spreads throughout the room.

"For your safety, you must remain in your dorm rooms for the rest of the day. Anyone with information about Se-young Kim or her whereabouts must inform the teachers immediately."

You enter your dorm room, where Jaq is quietly reading a book about CERN. "Jaq, have you heard what happened?" you ask.

Jaq looks up and shakes her head. "No, what's going on?"

You explain what happened and ask if she was involved. Jaq gives you a serious look and says, "No, I was just reading all day. I didn't do anything."

You nod, relieved, and tell her that Ms. Müller instructed everyone to stay in their rooms and report any information they have about Se-young. Jaq sighs, "This is insane. I hope they catch her soon."

Eh, Jaq lost any credibility in her words...

As much as I like Jaq, without Seo-young we are essentially alone. Tho given she's found, she might be a lost cause already... Well, dying for a cause might be absurd, but nobody can prove absurd is bad. Go for it, for 'friendship', or other Big Word, if nothing else.

Also mislead Jaq where we are going, even tho she probably won't belive it and sell us as well... Well, que sera, sera.

So guys I think we have to kill jaq so we avoid getting wacked next considering she outted Seo on rumor alone. Maybe we can mislead Jaq that we are going to do more testing on dimension loops as we are still trying to figure it out if she asks where we are going.

Silent throne
Aby sits upon a throne of glass as she reaches out to grab and squeeze glass memory fragments. A shard reflecting Aki's image the first time Yui decided on splintering a personality. With a light squeeze Aby gains more data to learn Aki is still trying to get to the HRT pills. A disgusting submissive slave and an obstacle to all of her plans for the school. With an annoyed grunt Aby crushes Aki's fragment as she sees two more drift over.

A major glass fragment of Jaqueline's promise against Seo showing she values emotions over her logic. Demanding control over the group and Yui's potential help in killing or injuring Seo. Another fragment of Sep drifts closer showing her giving a small smile the second time Yui went to explore with her. Maybe it's over protectiveness, a puppet to take, or she could be grooming Yui. Too many unknowns and not enough data yet.

Another hand reaches out, seizing a glass shard of the bunker's exit and map. Routes of white lines showing the specific turns and curves of navigation. A potential way to narrow down dimensional threshold discovery instead of blindly looking in abandoned hallways. With a satisfied nod Aby shatters the glass fragment into fine dust before putting it away in one of her test tubes for later use.

Rhythm knocking echoes from the door making Aby slam her foot down as glass gives way to a silent library. Adjusting her coat as she walks across the floor to open the door to see Aki.

"Hello Aki! Did you come to bonk away the gae?" Says Aby with a beaming smile.

"Aww Aby, you don't need to hide your true face. Just express your true self!"

"What do you mean? I am my true se-"

"Not this lie. Everyone knows what I want as I am honest but you pretend to be supportive. After all, we are all predators with Yui's will to survive. If you came a bit sooner than me then I would have totally believed your lie." Smiles Aki as she gives Aby a small headpat.

"Aki I don't know what you are saying. Are you well or under heavy stress?" Spits out Aby a little harsher than she expected as she slides out her knife and sulfuric acid bottle out of her lab coat sleeves.

"Ugh. Fine you want to fully commit to gaslighting me. Anyway I am not here to fight you as we both know what happens when predators fight, either we both die or are left crippled. Both results are just bad and take time away from my future husbands and wives! So I got a deal for you."

"What kind of deal would you possibly have that can benefit me?" Asks Aby as she boosts up Aki's threat level.

"Sooo I don't rat on you and you do the same for me. We both have plans that we don't want problems in."

"Yes, fine it's a deal. But if I get ratted out I will make sure to lobotomize you before Yui splinters me." States Aby's cold calculating eyes weigh the cost of taking off the mask.

"There you go! Don't you feel much better and free? Good luck on your future plans Aby!" Whispers out Aki as she makes her way out of the room.

>>5631664
Parallel plans
Yui softly sleeps in bed for a few moments as his eyes open with a cold hunger gripping his mind. His body jerks up as his limbs and head try to catch up from the sudden movements and lack of blood pressure. Scanning the room for any threats before reflexing his limbs and walking toward Jaqueline's prize.

Seizing the lab coat to feel the silken cold fiber trace along his skin. As the feelings of power and knowledge course throughout his body. Letting Aby gain control as the coat is readjusted and the bottles are secure as Aby leaves the dorm toward her list of goals.

Walking behind cameras blind spots, tracing a path following Yui's maps, and quietly listening for any potential monster or human patrols as the first series of turns to get to the bunker entrance approaches. Reaching the first turn Aby smiles as she gets to work. Tracing fingers along the ground of hallways to feel any small dents or piles of fine dust. Minutes pass until a few finger push making the floor slightly give way. With a smile Aby pulls a bottle of acid and a few paper towels as she starts wiping away the dust.

Finding the small indentation between slabs of stone. Satisfied, Aby notes down the soft restructure theory is right before moving toward her dorm as she mutters to herself. Letting her thoughts run wild after gaining full use of the entire brain instead of chunks at a time while watching out for more cameras or patrols.

"Turning off parts of the ventilation system can cause the air to be sucked out while refusing any new air from coming back in and suffocating everyone in their sleep. Just need to make sure all the vents are connected or get to the teacher's air pumps instead."

"Drown ceiling tiles in water to get black mold to find any dangerous mold types, maybe anthrax? No, I don't know enough about molds to find the right ones."

"A festive holiday but poison all the food to drop the teachers and guards? Mayne but I would need a poison or Jaqueline's slow poison and a revolution to begin that."

"Start bunker fires to lock teachers and guards in hallways to choke or burn them out? I need a lot of alcohol or jaq to make it."

"Get the delinquents armed and killed while I escape? They will shoot or use me the moment they get a gun. Jaq's henchman? Seo is needed to get the supplies out."

"Rattle the STAY AWAY room to wake up the nest to raid the bunker? I need a timer to wake them up in case they run faster than me."

"Use the dimensional loops to hit and drag guards away? Further research is needed.

"Holy shit is this the rush Aki gets when she is in charge fuck this feels so good. Man, if only I had five minutes of internet access. Hopefully Aki can use my plan to calm the pawns. She doesn't want to lose her potential harem and I can't afford losing those pawns yet. Hmm, so that is why we aren't tearing into each other yet. We all have the same goals for now until we don't anymore. Well done Aki."

>Sneak out of the dorms, attempt to find Se-young, and bring her food. [Rolls: 87, 72; DC: 50 x2; Success]

Aki, the cunning predator, urges you to fully embrace your femsona. Aby, the collector of glass memory fragments, crushes Aki's fragment and contemplates ways to harm the teachers and guards. And then there's Spirit, the embodiment of bravery and resilience, urging you to seize the day and take control of the situation.

You have conversations with the three personalities, each urging you to follow their lead. Aby shares her theory on restructuring the floor and various methods to cause harm, while Aki shares her desire to pursue Budimir and her cunning tactics to get what she wants. Meanwhile, Spirit represents hope and encourages you to follow your heart and make plans for the future.

As you struggle to control the conflicting personalities, you can feel their weight bearing down on you. Suddenly, you wake up, feeling disoriented. You glance over at Jaq and Alex, who are both sound asleep. You sit up and stretch, feeling restless. As you glance out into the dorm hallway, you notice that there are no guards patrolling the area. This is the perfect opportunity to sneak out and explore the school.

You quickly grab your backpack, stuffing it with an energy bar and other essential items, and head out into the dimly lit corridor. Your footsteps echo through the empty school as you make your way through the winding hallways, searching for any sign of Se-young. Your pulse quickens as you approach the metal door that leads to the underground bunker. You knock softly, hoping not to draw unwanted attention, but there's no response. A feeling of disappointment washes over you as you realize that Se-young must not be there.

But then, you have an idea. You remember the abandoned classroom in the anomalous corridors where you had first met her. You decide to head there and see if she's around. You make your way through the maze-like corridors, your heart racing with both anxiety and determination.

As you enter the abandoned classroom, you notice that it's just as you remembered it -- dark and gloomy, with broken desks and a chalkboard covered in dust. In a corner, you see Se-young, napping, with an AK-47 on the desk next to her. You approach her and gently shake her shoulder.

"Se-young, wake up. It's dangerous to sleep here," you say in a hushed voice.

Se-young slowly opens her eyes and looks at you groggily. "Where else am I supposed to sleep? I'm a fugitive," she says, sitting up and rubbing her eyes.

You look around the dilapidated classroom and nod in agreement. "I understand, but still, it's not safe. You need to be careful."

Se-young looks at you curiously. "Why are you here?" she asks.

"I came to bring you an energy bar," you say, holding out the backpack. "I thought you might be hungry."

File: School.jpg (77 KB, 1280x720)

77 KB JPG

Se-young takes the energy bar and opens it, taking a small bite. "Thank you," she says. "I haven't had anything to eat in a while."

After a brief moment of silence, you turn to Se-young. "Jaq must be the one who got you in trouble," you say in a low voice. "Can you tell me more about what's in Jaq's files?"

Se-young hesitates before speaking. "Jaq, whose real name is James, is actually a mass murderer," she says. "He's used poison to kill his former classmates. He's not a chemist, despite what he claims, and he's from an extremely wealthy family. However, the specific family is not mentioned in the files. According to his psychological profile, he's highly manipulative, charming, and narcissistic, and has been diagnosed with Antisocial Personality Disorder."

You are taken aback by Se-young's words. "Why didn't you say something sooner?" you ask.

Se-young lets out a weary sigh. "I didn't want to reveal personal information, but Jaq has reported me to the staff and gotten me in trouble," she explains. "So I decided to confide in you."

You sit in stunned silence, trying to process the gravity of Se-young's revelations.

"What are you planning to do?" you ask, your voice low, your mind racing with the weight of her revelations.

Se-young takes a deep breath before responding. "I'm going to hide in this classroom," she says, gesturing around the room. "It's relatively safe, and I can hold out here for a while. But I know I'll never be able to return to the main area of the school, not after what I've done."

You nod slowly, understanding the gravity of her situation. "What can I do to help?"

Se-young looks at you, her eyes steady. "If you want to make it up to me, stay with me," she says. "We need to explore deeper into the abandoned section of the school. We need to find more powerful weapons, and we need to escape as soon as possible."

You hesitate for a moment, considering your options. The idea of exploring deeper into the abandoned school is daunting, but you know that you can't leave Se-young alone after everything she's been through. Or can you?

>Explore the abandoned corridors, underground (Roll 3d100, 1 for each room you enter)

First of all I won't abandon you but we need a plan to aim for during the exploration.

Second of all the main room we could try to find its armory or kitchens to break a gas line and light up the area. But we would have to be fast as the patrols will be heavy. Or just head over to Jaq and slice her throat as leaving her alive will just have her come after us if we even manage to escape so better to get rid of a loose end that ruined everything for us.

If we go to the underground. One we explore find a mech or a sleeping monster nest. What then? Two if we try to escape now we won't have food or an escape plan to survive the monsters. Three if we do dive deeper we could find the ventilation systems and kill everyone but we would be at risk too. Four wait a day. Get at least one lunch and dinner meal then kill Jaqueline by asking for her help with CERN data mining and kill her then. Five we could arm delinquents or wake up the monsters to cause maximum chaos so we could escape. Six we blow our brains here and now and die free in each other's arms than being slaves.

>>5632585
Well, when all else fails 6 is an option, as long as we have guns or some kind of weapon. We may die but we die free, not a slave to whatever this place is trying to mould us to be.

We have no proof of that. At all. It's all circumstancial evidence.

Also, in order for that to happen you would need:

Inconveniently, we will be the one closest to those monsters; do you have a tentacle fetish, Aby~

>Six we blow our brains here and now and die
Death is not an option. Sending a message is absurd, like dying for a cause.

Let's be reasonable, Aby~
You seems to want your way to the determent of your reason.
Hence:
>>Explore the abandoned corridors, main floor (Roll 3d100, 1 for each room you enter)
Aim for supplies, ways to obfuscate Se-young, anything that can prolong her survival.
We don't have anything ready for anything at all. Going for endgame now is just suicide.

>Once we supply Se-young. Go back to dorm, go back to sleep. Next day is supplying period and looking for opportunities, talk with Jaq what are her desires, don't confront her as an enemy, just a friend.

rushing now is bound to lose. Killing Jaq is strategically inferior when we don't even know what drives her.

Hopefully others will see it before we blow our brains out in the name of some abstract pride... That will die with them, but hey, in their mind(the one being blown up) it's a valiant action........

>automatic reaction is make it into an enemy?
On further reflection, I think Se-Young might be a bit of a hothead despite her cold demeanor. It certainly would fit into the idea of delinquents being sent to this school. Se-Young definitely has a weird standard of what not to cross considering she was unwilling to release information about Jaq but willing to punch her right in front of us while knowing her background.

While we have a moment with her, I don't suppose we could ask her what happened to the last student council? Why is she the only one left? What did she do to end up in this school? Considering what we are doing, we've already thrown in our lot for her, so she owes us that much.

Also, body reading roll. I trust nothing.

No but seriously, there are so many holes there:
>Se-young attacked Jaq knowing how dangerous she is?
Really? I don't believe she's telling all the facts, and she has all the reasons to have us stay with her. She also had a looot of time to think things over.

Maybe there could is some merit in what Jaq told us before? That she was coerced into it? It would explain why Se-young didn't feel inclined to warn us, AND why she felt courageous enough to antagonize Jaq. It doesn't make ANY sense for her to do what she did given what she tells us, hot headed or not.

Again, I'm NOT trying to attack Se-young, but to point out we don't know anything at all. We are blind and guided by people who all want Their Way.
It's absolutely ridiculous to jump into any radical action in our state. You want to go for endgame based on a hear say? You would kill a person, because someone told you to? And it's Jaq is the problem?

What we need is to gather information. We are a pawn in the game played by egoists, and throwing ourselves in any direction is just an admission of defeat
Again. You said it yourself.

Do you, possibly, need Aki to be your flame guiding you in the dark? Don't worry, we share a common interest in survival; in the end, Aki can't be a good wife if Aki ded, right?

"What happened to the last student council?" you ask Se-young.

She hesitates for a moment before responding. "They were caught up in smuggling a hallucinogenic drug called Rift-7, It's a drug that makes users experience strange visions of other dimensions and realities."

You raise an eyebrow in surprise. "That's serious," you say.

She nods solemnly. "It is. The other council members were involved in drug smuggling, but I refused to participate. I don't consume drugs because it hinders intellectual abilities."

"That's impressive," you say. "But what happened to the others?"

Her expression turns somber. "They were all arrested and sent to rehabilitation. I'm the only one left," she says quietly. "It was a lonely position to be in, but I'd rather be alone than be caught up in something like that." She adds, "Well, I guess, it doesn't matter anymore..."

What did you do to end up in this school?"

She hesitates for a moment before answering. "It's not something I like to talk about," she says evasively.

You press her further, "Considering what we are doing, you owe me that much."

Her expression turns cold. "I don't owe you anything," she retorts sharply. "It's your fault I got in trouble, because you told Jaq my secrets, and Jaq reported me to the school administration."

You feel a pang of guilt, realizing that she's right. You have betrayed her trust in the past. "I'm sorry," you say softly.

Her expression softens slightly, but she still seems guarded. "Stop the interrogation, now," she says firmly. "If I want to divulge my past, I'll do it on my own terms. But I won't be pressured into it."

"I'm sorry," you repeat.

As you listen to Se-young, you can feel Aki, your femsona, tugging at the edges of your consciousness, eager to come out and play. A part of you wants to reject Aki, to keep her at bay and avoid the risks that come with her uninhibited personality. But for now, Aki is still integrated inside of you, a constant reminder of the thrills and dangers that await in the shadows. >>5632579

Body Reading (Failure) >>5632720: As she spoke, you attempted to use your body reading skills on her, but you didn't spot anything out of the ordinary.

You and Se-young make your way to the entrance of the underground bunker. As you descend down the stairs, the air becomes colder and damper. Once you reach the bottom, you find yourself in a long, dimly lit corridor. Se-young heads straight to the armory, where she reloads her weapons. You watch as she pulls out an AK-47 and a machine pistol, both of which she seems to be skilled in using.

65 KB JPG

You, on the other hand, don't feel comfortable with firearms, so you only carry your boar-hunting spike and a crudely sharpened knife. You know they may not be enough to protect yourself, but they're the only weapons you have.

You stride forward with Se-young trailing behind you. The atmosphere is tense, as if the very air is charged with danger. You keep your eyes peeled, scanning the area for any sign of trouble.

As you approach a door, it slides open with a hiss, revealing a room that seems to be from another world. High-tech equipment and massive tanks line the walls, filled with murky water. You can see shadows darting beneath the surface, hinting at the presence of some kind of aquatic creature.

The dim lighting in the room casts a eerie glow over everything, adding to the unsettling feeling in your gut. The musty smell of dampness and decay is thick in the air, as if the place has been abandoned for years.

As you make your way through the lab, you notice rows of marine biology books along the walls. The place must have been a research facility at some point, before whatever happened down here forced everyone to evacuate.

Despite the tranquil appearance of the water, you can't shake the feeling that danger lurks just beneath the surface. Every creak and slosh sends a shiver down your spine, making you wonder what kind of horrors could be hiding in the depths of those tanks.

As you venture further into the Aquatic Lab, you suddenly hear a deafening roar that echoes through the room. The sound is quickly followed by a violent surge of water that threatens to engulf you. Struggling to keep your footing, you scan the area for the cause of the disturbance. And there, in the tumultuous water, you see it: a pressure trap has been triggered, releasing the creatures that were held captive in the tanks.

The creatures that emerge from the shadows are grotesque humanoids with fish-like features. Their scales shimmer in the flickering light, and their webbed fingers and toes allow them to move with unparalleled speed and agility through the water. Some of the mutants even possess extra appendages, like tentacles that writhe ominously through the water the tentacles are for Aby >>5632698. Their round, unblinking eyes fixate on you with an unnerving intensity, as if they view you as both predator and prey.

As the vile creatures swarm towards you, your grip tightens around your weapon and prepare for the inevitable clash.

The water pressure trap has been activated, and the exploration of the other rooms is cancelled until the situation is resolved.

Combat will be resolved in one turn. During this turn, I will roll for Se-young. If you fail the rolls, it will result in your character's death.

I mean, we're about to trouce the first two, so I'd settle for using the bodies to shield our vulnerable fleshy body instead of attacking while Se-Young riddles it full of bullet holes from behind?
Or like >>5633519 suggested, splashing the sulfuric acid on them could help. Maybe throwing it at the floor between us could either cripple them or force them to go around, giving Se-Young enough time to line up a shot/reload.

>>5633807
In retrospect, I really didn't expect with this quest, we would end up fighting fish people with a boar spear while debating throwing acid in their faces.

I swear if we survive we should practice with the spear or get comfortable with a gun.

Ok, but for real. What the deal with Yui? We know more about our friends than we do about the protagonist...

Which makes me curious.

QM was asked about it - answered that we will know in due time; but this only begs further questions, it can't be anything generic, because he would just told us: "you are just Japanese nobody, really.", And we could know it since it's about protagonist, not a relevant secret.

Are we to believe that governments wouldn't look up previous behavior to judge whether Yui should be sent there or not? That accidentally 'killing' a bully was enough to warrant all this?

Are we to believe that we just have that much freedom/ease of walking around in what is, in theory a reformatory? It's easier to go out at night for Yui than for me on a voluntary summer camp...

We know/expect the backgrounds of our friends - both rich - so, it doesn't seem like a body snatching operation, since it's a government organization. Also the wording - "weaponization", doesn't imply selling...

Se-young took interest to us. She knew the records, and if we really are just an average Average who ever averaged, why would she bet on us? So much so given that she actively wanted us to get away from a 'mass murderer' by putting herself in danger.

Just who is Yui? And how does they tie to the whole school? Did he accidentally 'just killed', or something else happened to warrant all this? Is Yui even aware of things?

Watch Wuxian delete all his original notes of Yui and replace them with a multipersonality disorder Yui with a high kill count caused by Aby, gaining a lot of blackmail on many politicians from Aki, Spirit breaking SWAT teams sent after us, and the fourth is a wild card we have not seen yet. With True Yui holding them all back and decides which one gets to play and force cooperation.

Pretty sure it was because we didn't know PVP existed. Hell, if we get two players supporting and repressing one personality and they roll well, one mask could take over. Just would require pissing off the repressed mask’s player, though. I'm a fan of throwing every mask into the sandy beach and locking them up there forever after escaping. The many become one.

>Fight the creatures [Rolls 90, 80, 50; Success, Success, Failure]

The creatures press in, their razor-sharp teeth glinting in the dim light. You lunge forward, swinging your weapon with all your might. The sound of metal striking scale fills the room as you manage to land a solid blow on one of the creatures, sending it reeling back. But the other two continue to close in, their grotesque features contorted into snarls of hunger and rage. Just when it seems that all is lost, a massive tentacle bursts forth from one of the tanks, flailing wildly through the water. With lightning-fast reflexes, it wraps around Se-young's waist, hoisting her up into the air.

The creatures turn their attention to the new threat, giving you a momentary reprieve. With a fierce battle cry, you charge forward, your boar-hunting spike raised high. With a sickening crunch, the spike pierces through one of the creatures, sending it writhing to the ground in agony. But as you try to pull the weapon free, you realize that it's stuck fast, lodged deep within the creature's tough hide. Cursing under your breath, you abandon the spike and draw your knife, ready to face the remaining foes. Meanwhile, Se-young proves herself to be an able ally, even while being held in the grip of a tentacle. With a steady hand and a cool head, she raises her AK-47 and unleashes a hail of bullets at one of the creatures, cutting it down in a shower of gore.

You engage the last creature in a fierce struggle, but it proves to be a formidable opponent. With its superior size and strength, it drags you down to the floor, and sinks its teeth deep into your neck. The more you fight, the tighter its grip becomes. Blood pours out of the wound, mingling with the water and turning it a deep red. The pain is excruciating, and your vision starts to fade. The last thing you hear is Se-young's AK-47 rattling as she unleashes a barrage of bullets in a desperate attempt to save you.

As your consciousness begins to fade, a sense of relief washes over you. You take solace in knowing that you died a free man, fighting for your life against the school. Your last thoughts are of Se-young, hoping that she survives and escapes this horrible school.

This quest was inspired by "Project Monarch", a trauma based mind control programming that causes multiple personality disorder in the victims. As the QM, my goal was to push the players into accepting various forms of brainwashing until the MC was completely broken.

See "Trance Formation of America": http://www.whale.to/b/obrien_b1.html

The players willingly accepted some of these tactics, including personalizing their school uniform, working on their femsonas with Jaq, practicing compartmentalization, and even developing Multiple Personality Disorder (Aki, Aby, and Spirit).

Despite this, the players also rebelled in various ways, such as refusing to take the HRT pills, stealing from the classrooms, making escape plans, crafting weapons, and exploring restricted areas. Se-young, despite Yui's Average stats, fell in love with him because of this rebellious spirit.

In the end, congratulations are in order because you chose to fight, leading to my defeat.

>>5634223
>Se-young, despite Yui's Average stats, fell in love with him because of this rebellious spirit.
Lol, spirit for the win. They knew each other for only a couple weeks or so, but that's enough for love.

This was a weird quest, QM. Looking at what you ran before, this was something different. I can't quite say there were the most well-written of characters, especially Yui, but I respected your willingness to go through with rolls no matter how outlandish. Overall, it was an entertaining read.

I think the brainwashing was helped in a majority because of that one guy writing his fanfiction, which I mostly simply skipped over or entirely ignored. In my frank opinion, without that guy from the first thread, we'd probably never come up with the basis for MPD.

>In the end, congratulations are in order because you chose to fight, leading to my defeat.
I would've liked for Yui to escape alive with Se-young, but this is a win/loss that I find suiting. It's just how the cookie crumbled.

Out of curiosity, did things turn out how you expected?

This hateful, bigoted ideology sucks color from life - to both the victims and perpetuators. Boring and lacking any creative touch, a good reason why being flamboyant is so effective in keeping the player base healthy, SocCans bring nothing to the table, they just make sure it's empty, so they can share their misery.

It's called engagement; an opposition; a different perspective toward the assumed goal of other players to challenge their convictions, make victory not only physical, but also philosophical. Something your kind wouldn't be able to engage in.

>>5634318
Also, does your ideology necessitates using derogatory terms and slurs constantly? Is that some fad, make you feel like a The Male by creating a subjective hierarchy where you are higher?

>>5634223
Its not a real defeat. The school stands untouched and Yui left not a single scratch upon it, when he had the best chance and the most success so far.

All the personalities all had so many plans and plans for each other, and we had no grand climax, personality free for all, or a longer life. It just hurts to have another unfinished quest where basically nothing was completed.

At least I still got DC henchman and another quest to continue writing for. It just sucks to not have a gran ending and I got fucking cucked out of explosives and Aby storylines.

>>5634388
>It just hurts to have another unfinished quest where basically nothing was completed
From a narrative standpoint, looking at the characters and setting, this ending is terribly bitter rather than sweet. The best we can draw for it is some faint hope Se-young will escape revealing the evils of the school and Yui died free.

The school ended up worse, with Jaq assuming power, Se-young ousted, electroshock therapy occurring, and Yui killed while still slightly insane. We ended up in a worse position with only more knowledge of what was happening but died while things were still worsening. If the QM hadn't outright said it was his defeat and his goal was to push brainwashing forward, I would've considered this a complete loss, only slightly better than being broken by the school.

All the grand plans were laid to waste, with no free-for-all personalities or an explosive end. Although, I felt that the end was already approaching because the QM said last thread with one of the final choices that an epilogue might have occurred rather than a thread continuation.

That we failed by 5 points on a dice roll with none of the tools we had, like the acids being used in the confrontation to help even the odds in some manner or using a fish corpse as a meatshield, is frustrating.

So it goes.

>DC henchman
I've been meaning to catch up with that, but it has a lot of threads to go through. Do fish people get fought in that quest?

>>5634411
Nah, instead of fish people we got devils and black ops fighting us instead.

>>5634413
That's pretty cool.

I'm also a bit sad we didn't get to see orange ever make a personality for even more craziness. That would've been fun. Hell, I've never been in quest where the fanfic characters ended up being a sort of central issue for the main character. That and fanfic is way more engagement than I see in most quests.

Huh, I'm craving an epilogue now. But what would fit best? Se-young out of the school or the personalities meeting one last time on the beach?

I say Seo as the personalities all did not root in in time and Yui was in charge at the last moments. Just to have at least some good ending after being 5 off from hitting the DC to live.

>For you, anon. You wanted a grand ending, I write for you. Quality and canon go straight out the window. Also, what is the other quest you write for?

The bullets impact the last creature, sending it sprawling across the room and falling with a terrible screech. Yui falls, blood still gushing from his neck. Then, just as quickly as Se-young turns her rifle against the tentacle gripping her and holds the trigger down, the tentacle is soon reduced to a smattering of gore across the floor, the stump left wildly failing, with her free and out of reach.

She doesn't care.

The only thing demanding her focus is him. Rushing to his side, she kneels. It is not good. The right side of his neck is a ruin; liquid spills like ink, dying the surrounding water red. She presses both hands against his neck in a desperate attempt to stop the outpour. But, unfortunately, it is a lost cause. The bite's location and depth would mean a swift end from blood loss; she doesn't have the means to stem this.

Another loss due to her weakness?

Her hands are no longer steady. The adrenaline of the fight is tapering off, and with it, the numbness disappears. The bruises and aches are felt now, but still, her eyes are glued to his neck. If only she had been faster, perhaps his blood wouldn't be staining his lab coat. Motionless now, she knows the battle is lost. Nothing more can be done. This admission hurts more than any bodily pain and is colder than the water she kneels in.

Alone once again.

Leaning back, she cradles him, and she takes in Yui Nakamura. The struggle of the fight has left his clothing torn, darkened in color by the waters and the blood from both him and the fallen creatures. The makeup on his face washed away. Yet, there is a peace to his features, an ease that he did not bear in life, eyes closed as if in sleep, and a soft smile on his lips. It is the most awful and beautiful thing she has ever seen. She will remember it until her dying days. Rage comes now, terrible and roiling, anger at herself, anger at the school, and anger at Yui for being left to face the challenges alone. Old practice quickly marshals the rage into motion and drive.

Endure.

Standing, she is red and red and rust-red, up to his elbows, knees, and neck like she had arisen from a chamber of the heat. She must move forward and find a way out. Yet, staring down at Yui's body, she cannot find it in herself to leave it to rot here alone, far from home, forgotten in the dark. She lifts him in her arms. He is startlingly light. She strides towards a door, leaving behind the fallen foes and the stump tentacle.

>Deus Ex Machina. Applying that unused 100 from the last thread because Se-young deserves an ending of some sort.

The automatic door hisses open, and stepping into the new room, what greets her is a rift in the middle of the room that her mind scrambles to understand but cannot. There is machinery around, but dust and rust cover everything. This place has weight as if something monstrous, in consequence, has waited here for a very long time. From everywhere and nowhere, she hears voices familiar and unfamiliar.

"There is something below this school that they tried to harness." Morgan, an old council member.
"Imagine what we could do with such powers." a younger voice. Is that Ms. Müller?
"The test subjects have broken." an unfamiliar voice, cold, clinical, and clipped.
"Se-young, do you hear me?" An old teacher of hers when younger.
"We need younger subjects. Their minds are more malleable." The cold voice once more.
"The rift can get you anywhere; you need to focus." A more aged voice, a lecturer firm and commanding.
"It doesn't matter how many it takes. I will win!" A younger voice, but unmistakably Yui's.
"You cannot understand it with the reason, you fools. It responds to emotion, desire, and dissent. It eats," a shrill voice, Cassandra, the former council treasurer, the one who took the most of Rift-7.

Se-young takes in all this, her ears ringing from the voices, some louder than a shout, some quiet as a whisper. A question comes into her mind. She knows it is not hers. Her mouth tastes like salt, and she smells dry sand. Heat radiates off the rift like an open fire. It feels like she is both at her most potent and her most helpless. The taste of iron slips into her mouth, and she realizes her nose has begun to bleed. Something is glancing at her and has asked a question that burns in her mind to be answered.

W H A T D O Y O U W A N T ?

For Yui to be alive.
For this school to be destroyed.
For release from fear.
For strength to not fail.
To be happy.
To live.

The rift takes in all this, and Se-young can feel it is judging her. Scouring her mind. She is found wanting. It is pleased. Her feet move before her mind catches up. In front of the rift, she looks down at Yui in her arms and then steps forward into the unknown.
