Make a hat out of that techpriest's skin. It was more important than he.

DEMAND that H1256-J47 get me a new hat.
Now.

>>12378995
>>12378986
This, or at least have him upgrade an old one.

>>12378995
The Magos looks you and says, "I told you already, the seneschal banned me from making hats."

>>12378977

Go get ready for the meeting with captain Cetus, call in our seneschal, arrange for the senior officers to send us memos rather than having us traipse all over the ship.

>>12379015

Is the Seneschal lord captain of this ship now?

>>12379015
Make ready for our meeting with Cetus.

Either see Jet or talk to the Seneschal about the memo thing. This is getting ridiculous.

I only read up to the second thread and want back in on this.

Mind giving a bro a quickie greentext rundown?

>>12379042

It's all on suptg, and you can read the intros Tablet gave at the beginning of each thread for a summary.

>>12379030
seconded

>>12379015
I will... discuss this with him.

>>12379031
>>12379026

“Right,” you say, exasperated. At this point, you don’t know whether or not you even want to why he’s banned. Given the seneschal seems to be the only person with any common sense on the ship, it was probably for a very good reason. After making sure everything is in proper order, you leave H1256-J47 to his machines and head for your room to get ready.

Upon arrival, you find the seneschal there waiting for you. With an arched eyebrow at your hatless state, informs you that repairs are underway and the he has made sure that H1256-J47 has supplies required for the ship. Morale slightly restored with that bit of good news, you have him exit the room so you can get dressed. A quick trip to the closet later, you’re in your Rogue Trader finest and ready to go. The only problem is your current hatless state. To rectify this you go to your collection of hats, and think about what you want to wear.

What do you decide to wear?
>No hat
>Dashing Hat
>Elaborate Rogue Trader Hat
>Make a paper sailor’s hat.

>>12379094
All of them. One on top of the other.

>>12379094

As fun as the sailor hat might be, Rogue Trader is probably the best bet.

>>12379056
Perhaps someone coul make a page on 1d4chan?

>>12379094

well , we're seeing a ship's captain and we want him to stick with the plan we set down , so we need him to be in awe of us , SO , dashing hat

>>12379099
Second.

>>12379094
no hat to show the somberness of the occasion

>>12379094
If we're going as a "proper" Rogue Trader we should wear the fancy one.

Also, ask the seneschal why Jeff can't make us a new hat.

>>12379094
Elaborate Rogue trader hat. We are after all dressing to impress when it comes to prospective business partners.

>>12379099
You better not ignore this, Tablet. Tarnish notte the majesty of our TOWER of HATS.

>>12379099
This.

>>12379099
HAT TOWER
IS MADE OF HATS

>>12379099
DO IT

We are Dolemite Dedlift. We're a Rogue Trader. We're a little "off" compared to your average Imperial.

>>12379173
Tablet, can you confirm?

>>12379173
"Who's the fucking Lord-Captain, here? You or I?"

>>12379128
>>12379099

Through sheer determination, a little bit of genius, you do the impossible and make a tower of hats. Each hat one of top of each other, with a paper hat on top. Surely there is no greater hat.

You step outside your room to attend the meeting with captain Cetus, only to find the seneschal waiting for you. He stares at your TOWER of HATS, before saying derisively, “You aren't really going to wear that, are you?”

>>12379206

>Trip, not captcha. I really need to triple check what I'm writing for errors

>>12379206
Fuck yes, I'm going to wear it. This is the Imperium of Man. Haven't you noticed how everyone who's big and in charge has a massive hat? Imagine this tower of hats.

They'll never even think twice about it, and end up bowing out of respect.

>>12379206

Sigh and go back to a single hat.

"Why did you ban Jeff from milnery anyway?"

>>12379206
see
>>12379195

>>12379206
"Problem, seneschal?"

Begin making our way to the meeting. It's our ship, and this deal's too good to pass up. Captain Cetus won't mind too much. Or at least he shouldn't.

"Speaking of which, why did you ban Jeff from making hats?"

This is all starting to get rather silly.

>>12379206

yeah we can't wear this. We've been pretty sane so far, lets not go off the deep end suddenly

We'll go down to one and tuck the others away once we actually get to the meeting. We just want to bug the Seneschal a bit on the way.

>>12379231

Bull. We've been off the deep end the entire time, we just hide it better.

'Sides, if anyone can make a TOWER of HATS work, it's us. We might even be able to set a fashion trend!

>>12379296

"It seems to work for the Sororitas... but you're right" recall that magical summer before you turned 13 and she was forced to join the repentia.

The Seneschal and Jeff.

>>12379296
Everyone aside from Invidia and the Navigator. Navigator's busy and I'm not sure Invidia would be well received by the captain.

>>12379296
I say psyker-waifu. Bring Invidia. And the Pyro, for the lulz.

>>12379296
No one, finish up the discussions with no witnesses.

>>12379296
FUCK YOU YOU FUCKING FAGGOT WE ALL AGREED TO THE TOWER OF HATS.
GO FUCK YOURSELF.

>>12379218
You chuckle a little bit before saying, “No, of course not. I just wanted to see how you would react.”

Stone-faced as always, he replies with a deadpan tone, “I assure you, if you made me have to have a reaction, it would most likely end in someone dying.” When you ask him about H1256-J47’s ban, he just says, “His hats would always catch on fire when somebody wore them. Every single time.” With that out of the way, he says the meeting with Captain Cetus will be soon, and ask who would you like to accompany you?

>No one
>The seneschal
>Ripley
>Gabriel
>The Navigator
>Invidia
>H1256-J47
>Jet
>Other

>>12379324
>>12379321


Bring Invidia or not? Also, who else?

rolled 9 = 9

>>12379388

no one

also , when we get back , we have to call jeff and get him to design and biuld us a fire proof tower of hats , each hat more extravagant then the last

>>12379395
Yes to Invidia

Also tower of hats

>>12379412

Second, second so very much.

>>12379416
You can’t believe the words coming out of your mouth. They just blurt out unbidden, without you even really think about it. “Let’s bring Invidia,” you say suddenly. Oh Emperor, you’re bringing that disturbing woman with you to a meeting to discuss the fate of an entire world?

Well, at least there’ll be some benefits. She can probably read his mind, and tell you if he’s lying or holding back information. Besides, it might do her some good to get some socialization with real people. Oh, what the hell, let’s do this.

>>12379452
Send word to everybody and we'll all meet with Captain Cetus.

>>12379452
Hey Tablet.
You got your name wrong.
Tripderps gonna derp.

>>12379452
This time, Captain Cetus agrees to meet on your ship. This fits perfectly into your plan, as it will make moving Invidia up to the meeting room that much easier. An hour passes and you are in your study waiting for the Captain Cetus, when there is a knock on your door. You tell them to come in, thinking it to be the captain, only to find it is Invidia. It seems you forgot she was coming, because you are surprised when she enters the room, once more wearing her sundress that is almost the same color as her chalk white skin.

>what do you do?

>>12379519
Ask her to pull up a chair next to you, chat idly while you wait for the captain of the Cetus.

rolled 60 = 60

>>12379519
I throw a willpower check to try and throw off whatever psyker hoodoo she has on us. Or maybe it's just our confused and foolish penis.

>>12379506
GOD DAMNIT.

It hate having to trip fag

rolled 5 = 5

>>12379519

"come sit next to me , babe"

>>12379542
You invite her to take a seat beside you at your desk, and she quickly nods and walks over to you. Once she is next you, the emaciated woman looks up to you and asks, “The seneschal t-told me to c-come up and meet you here. I-Is there a reason why?”

>>12379579
Oh Emperor Fucking Damn It

"I really need to get everyone to be more specific when it comes to arranging meetings. You're here for the meeting I'm having with Captain Cetus, about our arrangement."

>>12379663

I have a meeting with Captain Cetus. I'd like you to sit in. I'd like your opinion on him. Don't say anything unless asked, and act professional.

If he asks why you're here, tell him I have some critical messages from home pending, which is true enough.

>>12379579
>>12379663

Has the warp been affecting my eyes, or are these two posts the same?

“Oh..ok. I thought you wanted to… read your Warrant again...” she says, as if let down. She then turns a little, chipper, and says with her trademark slasher smile, “Well, I’m glad you had me come for the meeting.”

As soon as she is done speaking, there is a knocking at the door. Again, you bid them enter. The door opens, this time revealing Captain Cetus, and someone you assume to be his aide.

>What do you do?

>>12379706
They are. I shouldn't try to run a quest drunk

>>12379708
"Captain, welcome to my ship! Please, have a seat and let's get to business. This is Astropath Invidia, who will be sitting in as I am anticipating an important message."

>>12379708
Stand and welcome him. Give him the bad news about his fantastic hat.

>>12379713
Haha oh god you're drunk?
No wonder we got to have TOWER of HATS. I am looking forward to a hilarious quest.

>>12379719
He doesn’t move an inch, and his face is completely devoid of emotion. His eyes dart between you and Invidia, before just becoming a glare. “Now, I am a patient man, and I like to think I am fairly understanding of errors. Perhaps it is just the time you spend in the Inquisition that makes you think such a thing is a appropriate, but to bring a psyker to a meeting such as this? What do you take me for, a fool? You could be using her to control my mind, or blackmail me by scanning my head, or even transmitting this information to the adminstratum to get me fired! I will not be a party to this meeting until she is removed.”

>>12379728
rather

>>12379766
Fucking called this shit.>>12379321

>>12379766
"Do not forget, you are on my ship. Matters such as a psyker being present for a meeting should be irrelevant to you. And I assure you, her power is not going to be used here. Is that clear, good sir?" Make it a point to look to Invidia at that last bit, let it be known we mean that part.

And somehow try to give her a subtle hint to ignore that order and use her mind-reading powers with impunity during the meeting.

>>12379803

second

>>12379803
“Hmph,” he grunts, as he turns about face, and continues on to say, “I will not be here if she is. Perhaps we can reschedule the meeting for another time. Good day.”

>>12379832

"You, sir. Are no gentleman. Return my top hat at once."

>>12379832
Have Invidia read the aide. I'm betting s/he's a Psyker too.

>>12379832
"Perhaps...we can persuade you otherwise."

HINTHINT, INVIDIA, USE PSYKER MIND POWERS TO MAKE THE CAPTAIN WANT TO SIT DOWN.

>>12379846
OH YES, THAT'S A FUCKING BRILLIANT IDEA GOOD SIR

Either reschedule or we send Invidia out.

>>12379846
Invidia shirks back at his insults and the personal attacks directed at her, and begins to curl up into a ball. Before anything can be done, the captain leaves.

Fuck

>>12379846
>guy is worried you'll use a psyker to make him do stuff
>make psyker mess with him to put him at ease and prove him right

This will not end well. I have foreseen it.

>>12379846
MY RAGE IS PALPABLE

>>12379901
Ask if she read him. Apologise for putting her through that.

>>12379901
Damn it.

OK, chill anons, MAYBE we can salvage this.

Fuck.

Comfort Invidia. apologize for being a dumbfuck.

Meet with Jet, we need to get ready for the funeral and have a speech ready.

Work on an apology for the captain, lamenting our actions, "I know it's not an excuse, but you were correct - my time in the inquisition has made me paranoid. Please, let us start afresh."

>>12379928
She raises her head ever so slightly when you ask her, and says so quietly that you almost can’t hear her, “N-n-no. I d-don’t u-u-use m-my p-powers except w-when commanded t-to. T-to d-do so would b-be heresy.”

>>12379972
Comfort her. She needs to be as stable as possible.

>>12379972
Get on the vox, order the Men-At-Arms to seize the Captain and bring him to you. We're still linked with the strike cruiser? Excellent! They wont be expecting it! Open fire with the vicious salvo from the macro-cannons and begin to break away, try to cripple her before jumping to Warp.

Actually, just go and meet with Jet.

>>12379972
"Good girl. Just remember that not all commands need to be spoken."

>>12379972
Butts.
Comfort her, the guy was mad at Dolemite, not her.

>>12379988
You attempt to comfort her, only for her to grasps you in an unnaturally strong hug and begin to sob into the chest of your fine Rogue Trader uniform. Damn, those are going to take forever to wash. You vaguely begin to wonder if the seneschal can get psyker tears out when you notice her head rising. Your head lowers to see what she is doing, only to be caught off guard as she presses her cold, porcelain lips against yours.

What do you do?

>>12380069
Pity sex.


Baring that, Try to patch things up with the crappy Captain who is jealous of our hot psyker waifu

>>12380069
I didn't know astropaths could still cry. Huh.

Kiss her back a little, then move her away and let her know it wasn't her fault. Time to get this woman some more friends.

>>12380069

sexy time

>>12380069
Sex immediately after emotional trauma is bad idea. Just hug her some more.
>Part of your comment isn't allowed to be posted
WHICH PART
FUCK YOU MOOT

>>12380069
Darn it. Tell her gently that sex isn't a magic make-everything-better button. Yes, it feels good but it doesn't make any problems go away [unless you problem is going too long without sex], and that perhaps we can help her come up with other ways to handle stress. Not that we don't like sex, but it's good to learn and develop, and it will probably make it so that when she does choose to have sex, it will be all the more meaningful.

Faggot mod banned me unfortunately for her I'm back. Haha.

>>12380083
Fuck this is a bad idea. You know it is. You knew it was the last time it happened. And yet…. it did happen, and now it seems like it’s going to happen again. You notice your hands begin to roam, and it isn’t long before she’s straddling you in your chair, topless as you make out. You know this is wrong, that she’s depressed, incredibly creepy, a psyker, your employee, possibly insane, and capable of crushing your head in with a thought, and yet it never stops. You try to resist, but for some reason you find yourself unable to. Fuck it, you say, let’s just see where this goes.

Suddenly, the door to your study opens, and in enters the seneschal, saying, “Lord Captain, I just saw Captain Cetus leaving the ship and he seemed rather agitated. When I asked him about it, he something about an arroga-“ He cuts off midsentence when he sees the two of you in your chair once more, and says, “God-Emperor Damn It.”

>>12380145
..Wat.

>>12380157

Welp.

>>12380157
Face -> boobs.

>>12380157
COCKBLOCKED

Methinks we should stop pissing off the Seneschal, he DOES run our finances.

>>12380157
See what he wants

"the good captain seemed affronted with the fact that the astropath who could give him the most beneficial information was in the same room as him." I say with heavy sarcasm. calmly extricate ourselves from the psyker waifu, but not after kissing her once more.

(also im surprised my option was picked when there was so many dissenting opinions.))

>>12380157
Tell Invidia to hold that thought.

Take the seneschal outside and give him a very firm dressing down about privacy and knocking.

>>12380234
The seneschal begins to look between the two of you, before sighing and leaving the room, but not before saying, "The funeral is in an ninety minutes. Given that you didn't go to mass, I think you should go to this at least. I'll be waiting outside."

>>12380252
Tablet picks first response and lets us worry about the consequences.
Plus, he's drunk.

>>12380264
>>12380129

>>12380273
I happen to enjoy whisky thank you very much

>>12380264
Hey, faceboob was serious.
Anyway, kiss Invidia once more, then lift her up. Let her pull herself away.

Well nice going /tg/ your desire for your creepy waifu's damned an entire meeting to a waste of time.

Our first of order of business is to put this damn rave on hold. We need to get around to RUNNING THE DAMN SHIP. That means we gotta reschedule that meeting with the fucking Seneschal.

As for the funeral, I suggest we show up ahead of time.

>>12380283
I agree with this statement.

Attempt to extricate yourself form psyker waifu.Mention that she may want to get ready for the funeral. Also console her that she shouldnt let arrogant captains comments get to her.

Then proceed to meet with seneschal whats his face and politely comment on the intricacies on knocking.

>>12380314
Very carefully, you explain to her that you need to get ready for the funeral, and also make sure to mention that she should wear something nice as well. Invidia, for her part, is still shocked that the seneschal saw her topless, though thankfully her only saw her back. Eventually, she returns to her senses and removes herself from your lap, and begins to put her sundress back on. The creepy astropath begins to leave, but as she does you tell her about the party The Navigator is throwing. She is stunned for a moment, before smile her pale mockery of smile and leaving. Oh God-Emperor, is she skipping?

>>12380358
HNNNNG
Make ready for funeral.
Go to funeral.
Invite Captain Asshat?

Now we shall wear our tower of hats to the funeral.

>>12380381
This. And don't fucking railroad it again.

Proceed to meet with seneschal and gird yourself for whatever snappish comments hes likely to make. Inquire to suggestions on how to appease the good captain.

>>12380381
Uh, no. We won't wear a hat. We're supposed to be mourning.

>>12380395
Fine. We shall give everyone their own hat.
Let's get to making paper ones.

>>12380395
Gonna agree with this.
Let's not be lul randumb for once and try to manage this tactfully.
... Next thing ya know, /tg/ will be suggesting a pink suit.

>>12380405
Pink is heresy!

Everyone knows its just a degeneration of the god fearing red.

>>12380395
>>12380380

You rearrange your clothing into something less disheveled and exit the room. Once outside, you find the seneschal waiting for you. He hands you a data-slate, which he explains is a list of the dead. The seneschal suggests that you at least read through it and memorize a few names, possibly go meet the families of the dead to give them your condolences.

A half hour later you find yourself outside of the elaborately decorated doorway that leads to Jet’s room.

What do you do?

>>12380457
Rocketpunch the door.
We have rocket-gauntlets, right?

Knock on door

>>12380463
You attempt to rocket punch the door, only to find you lack rocket gauntlets. Damn, you need to have H1256-J47 get on that. Instead, a normal knock on the door will have to suffice. Soon, the great doors that lead to your missionary’s room open, revealing Jet wearing what you can only describe as one of the fanciest priest robes you ever seen. Indeed they rival your own state of dress, and are significantly drier and better kept.

Atop his head is a truly fancy hat that hides his normally wild hair. In his hands you notice a bottle of amasec, and in the other a chalice with a blood drop and wings. Looking you up and down, he laughs for a moment before inviting. You take him up on the offer, and leave the hallway for the large room the host Jet and his various guests. Once inside, he offers you a glass of amasec.

What do you do?

>>12380457
Knock and wait while studying the list of casualties while preparing to make a short speech at the funeral.

>>12380528
Drink it while lamenting the loss of our hat.
Say, why don't we have it and take it off?

>>12380528
Accept one (and only one) drink from him, ask about the ceremony and what you'll be expected to do for it.

>>12380528

Chug the amasec, then frown and suggest buying best-quality amasec next time we're port-side.

>>12380528
Drink some, but not much.
Discuss funeral speech.
Ask if turning up with Psyker waifu would be bad idea.

>>12380528
Confess all your naughty deeds. And then inform him about pissing off the captain and ask for advice.

>>12380549
You accept a glass, but make sure that you only take one. Jet guides you over to the bar that he apparently keeps inside of his room, and gestures for you to have a seat. You take one, and while he pours you your drink ask him what is expected of you.

“Not much. I’m going to be standing on stage, with the caskets of the saved bodies behind me. You going to be standing outside for the beginning, and then when I give the que the seneschal or whatever he’s fucking called will send you in. You’ll walk up to the stage, kneel before me, ask for forgiveness of your sins, and kiss my ring. You then stand up, make some grand speech like you always do, and take a seat in the front row pew. I’ll finish off the sermon, lead some hymns, the usual, and then we’ll jettison the bodies into space while playing some religious songs. I’m thinking requiem for the lost, what do you think?” he asks as he hands you your glass.

>>12380620
Sounds like a plan.
Aks him about Psyker waifu, etc.

>>12380620
confess your sins.

>>12380620
How about "Pie Imperator"?

>>12380641
You tell him about the fact you’re sleeping with Invidia, and ask him what you should do.

He immediately drops the bottle of amasec and exclaims, “YOU DOING FUCKING WHAT?”

>>12380692
"What, you jealous?"

rolled 59 = 59

>>12380692

dont knock it till you try it

>>12380692
Your move holy man.

>>12380692
Says the guy who must have slept with literally dozens of women. Is it because she's a psyker? It's because she's a psyker, isn't it. Well, we won't tolerate prejudice on our ship!

Ask him what's the matter.

>>12380702
“Listen, I normally don’t agree with that seneschal dude. He’s a bit of a stiff, and kind of an asshole. However, I have to agree with what he’d probably say if he knew. He doesn’t know right? Emperor I hope not. Anyway, you should not get involved with psykers. Bad shit happens when you do. I’ve seen the stuff that can go down, I’ve seen it firsthand. Plus, you know the Big E doesn’t look kindly on that sort of stuff. And with Invidia? I met her once, when I came on board. I had to inspect every psyker on board, and I when I met her, well, that was grade A wrong. Even I wouldn’t hit that.”

>>12380692
"Not What, Invidia. The Astropath. Pale, kinda thin, eyes that would suck out my soul?"

>>12380737
"And for the record, it was a dozen of woman at once."

>>12380749
"He knows. And at this point I think continuing the relationship would have fewer short-term consequences than, you know, breaking her heart. And her mind."

>>12380749
"If it's any consolation, I'm trying to help her work past some of her problems. Being locked up in a room for most of your life isn't exactly healthy for the body or the mind.

And do you know how good sex is when the other person literally knows exactly what you want and how you want it?

>>12380768
"Well your fucked," he says, as he begins to sweep up the glass off the floor.

>>12380822
"What about my fucked?"

>>12380822
"... You're being less helpful than I had hoped. Guess I'll just have to deal with this potentially fatal situation on my own, then."

>>12380842
"Listen, I worked with him before you came on board. There's a reason he's on here. The rest of us, we're here because we're too important to kill, but have fucked up big time in some way. Not him. He's too good for that. He's here to keep everything peachy keen, or at least thats my theory.He's too good, always seeking perfection. If you throw that off, he'll throw you off this ship. But here's the thing: you're captain. He belongs to you pretty much. I have no doubt he'll do everything in his power to make sure you come out on top. Blackmail, theft, murder, whatever to make sure you succeed. And if Invidia is in the way... well, I don't know."

You've had enough.

Blessed are those who save themselves, for they are the ones who are chosen by the Emperor. Jet and Dolemite discuss various plans to save themselves and Invidia from the seneschal’s potential wrath over drinks. Meanwhile, hundreds of people pile into the grand chapel for the funeral, all in morning, some reduced to outright tears. Many good people, fathers, brothers, mothers and others were lost in the battle, and the crew bemoans their loss. And yet life goes on. The crew toils to repair the damages under the supervision of various techpriests, while servitors work behind the scenes to set up for the funeral. The Navigator prepares his set lists for the night, and someone Ripley leads his men to the funeral in parade marching formation. Life goes on, and hopefully it will go on a little bit longer.

Then why did you tarnish the majesty of our TOWER of HATS?

>>12381138
I don't know. Because someone suggested it? Any questions related to the quest specifically? I don't really care if they're stupid, like when is someone's birthday or something

Why don't you wait for more than one response before choosing which action to take?

>>12381177
Becuase I'm slow at typing as it is, and I want to keep this moving fast. Too slow and people abandon the quest

>>12381194
Too fast and you miss lots of people agreeing to the second post, who then get annoyed when you follow the first post in contradiction.

And you're far from slow. Just drunk tonight.
