I can't say enough how sorry I am for how the last few weeks have gone. I hate letting you guys down. But let's try again, and hopefully get it right this time.The twitter is at: https://twitter.com/DigimonQuestThe archive is here: http://suptg.thisisnotatrueending.com/archive.html?tags=Digimon%20QuestThe stat sheets are here: http://pastebin.com/u/DigimonQuestThe Storybook is here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1vIIWBQ-sHlw3PZ4D4yH9hiIl8YiqEVpy1ZUztKlSzzsDice Rules: I take the best of the first three, and any crits within the first five. Critical twenties can be stored and expended as save points. Luck rolls can be made to increase (or decrease) chances of success (or failure) on another roll, a crucial decision, or to influence travel sequences.LAST TIME ON DIGIMON QUEST:...And as the footsteps draw nearer, you see what exactly made them-A golden giant- armored and gilded with an enormous mantle of feathers, twin hammers clutched in his massive hands- striding across the smooth stone like a titanic king, with all the grace that follows.A crack of thunder booms out, echoing throughout the surroundings, and belatedly, you realize that it's his voice you're hearing."BROTHER, WHAT'S WRONG? YOU SEEM TO HAVE LOST YOUR TOUCH..." He stops suddenly, going quiet, and turning to look down.Down.At you."And what...have we here? A Digimon?" He mutters, his voice much lower, though no less powerful. Then, the glowing eyes ensconced in his helm narrow, and he speaks at a much greater volume again. "What Are You?">What will you say, Wayne?
"Chyeah, it's Weezy. Lil Wayne, what it do, nigga?"
"My name is Wayne Rogers, great one. I am a human from the other world sent by those other gods over there. I also have one of these?"Show digivice.
Fuck yes, Digimon Quest!How're you doing Gale?
>>28719366I'm gonna vote for this.Because, well, it seems respectful.
>>28719452Are you telling me that Lil Wayne isn't respectful?
Last vote was us showing our digivice and telling what we were doing, right?
"Hail mighty lord Zeu-... Jupiter...mon? This one is known as Wayne Rogers, a human from the real... other world."
>>28719477Well everyone knows that greek gods do not enjoy being called 'Weezy'.
>>28719530No Weezy is Lil Wayne's nickname.
Pic of Sally for good luck.
>>28719574That's the old shit. This is the new hotness.
>>28719564Oh well clearly that changes everything, my good sir.
>>28719586Hoo yes, that's even better.
>>28719586Is that official art?If not, who did that one?
>>28719683Not official. Just some dude on Pixiv.
>>28719366>>28719452If we combine this with the votes from the previous thread, I think this wins?
>>28719708Man, I guess so. I want to introduce ourselves as Weezy at one point in this quest.
>>28719701Ah.Well, that's a shame.Still, that is damn impressive - it looks great.
>>28719701Got a link, good sir?If that's not too much to ask.
>>28719736I'm fine with doing that to some random non-godly digimon later (we're going to meet tons of others during our travels, I think)
>>28719784http://www.pixiv.com/users/1814716He's got some really fucking impressive art. Seriously.
>>28719436well enough. Finals are upon me, but I just had one for my favorite class, so I both have free time, and a lack of true fun filled learning for the rest of the semester. Joy.Other than that, I'm alright. Loving the fuck out of Gaim. Based Kaito.>>28719708That it does. Alright, then.>writing
>>28719836...Lilithmon has no right to look that cute.
>>28719836>imageNot this
>>28719810Thank you, appreciate it.And, yes, looking at it, I'm impressed as hell.
>>28719862This will likely be how Sally looks at us when she gets to this point.
>>28719862read the filename.>>28719857and yet she can.
>>28719836Ah, finals.One of the most stressful times of the year.
>>28719936>and yet she can.It's downright diabolical, is what it is.
>>28719736Well it's not like we'll spend all our time here on this mountain - eventually we'll head off.Which means we can introduce us by that name then.
>>28719836...Is that all the Seven Great Demon Lords?
The cutest they've ever been.pretty sure this is the same artist posted above as well.
>>28720253Jesus Christ, look at her hips. God DAMN
>>28720253this was meant to be for >>28720211Damnit. OFF TO A GREAT START, FOLKS.
>>28720253I'm still hoping we get all the Great Demon Lords to arrive and save the world.If only for delicious irony.>>28720296Hahaha, no worries, I got that it was addressed towards me.
>>28720275She IS supposed to be teh Great Demon Lady of Lust... having wide hips is pretty much a requirement.
>>28720374Shame we never get a good look at her legs...This is a weird conversation. I'm gonna stop and wait for Gale.
>>28720374the*
>>28720408Talking about random things as writing happens is a time-honored tradition in Quests, though.But, yeah, you're right.
Well hey, I'm in time for this Digimon Quest!Here's the less-developed evolution chart, I don't have the bigger one around right now
This is it. The moment you’ve apparently been spending your whole life preparing for. An interaction with a Greek God....Discounting the rather amiable talk you have with vulcanusmon. He seemed to just be cool like that. This guy…? You have a feeling he’d be a lot less patient than Vulcan would be. So this is it.Your friends are depending on you here- Zoe never had your interest for Greek myth, and Sally and Aslan you only just met this week. The thought of them somehow angering one of these beings fills you with a certain dread, and hardens your resolve. Clearing your throat, you step forward, standing straight and tall, giving the obviously godly being before you your full attention."My name is Wayne Rogers, great one. I am a human from the other world sent by the Four beings in the Tower not far from here.” The golden giant nods slowly, humming, before motioning for you to continue. “ I also have one of these…” You trail off as you fish your digivice out of your pocket, holding it up so that he can see it clearly.In an instant, the giant Digimon’s eyes have widened, and he’s stood to his full height.“That mark, boy.” He asks, his voice low and imposing. “Where did you get it?”>[] Tell the truth>[] Answer vaguely>[] Lie>[] Write-in
>>28720823Oops. Forgot an option. They should be:>[] Mark? What Mark?>[] Tell the truth>[] Answer vaguely>[] Lie>[] Write-in
>>28720823What mark is he talking about, the digivise?Also truth
>>28720253>>28719586I can't help but admire the way this guy (if it is the same) does the eyes.
>>28720864Mark what mark
>>28720823I am pretty sure we can't lie.So, uh, we should ask about the mark and then tell the truth, I guess?
>>28720823You got a lightning bolt on your forehead you're not aware of?
>>28720932Yeah, we need more info - so ask about the mark and then tell the truth?How's that sound?
>>28720823Tell the truth.
>>28720977Has to be the digivice... maybe we've got the Mark of Lust on us?I don't know.
>>28721134Whattt? Is the theme for our digivices the seven sins or something?
>>28721197We DO have a digimon who's going to turn into Lilithmon eventually.So, yeah, possibly?
>>28720823Mark, then truth.
It's got to be one of these, right?
>>28721134>Mark of LustWe do have both a human and a digimon female lusting over us, actually.
>>28721288Has to be.But let's ask him.
>>28721313Heh, true enough!
>>28721288And Daniil probably has one as well...
So can we combine the votes?
>>28721473What do you think, Gale?Seems that we can get both asking about what mark he's talking about, and then telling the truth.
>>28721473>>28721587Perfectly doable. Writing now.And it's occurring to me once again that I'm ignoring other characters.
>>28721650>And it's occurring to me once again that I'm ignoring other characters.Opinions abound. But I don't really care for Daniil and his friend.
>>28721692Think he might mean Sally and co?For what it's worth though, Gale, it makes sense for them not to do much here - they know Wayne is the expert.And Wayne not focusing on them is also reasonable, given that freaking Digimon Zeus is right in front of him asking questions.
>>28721692I like them as this side thing.The main focus is on Wayne, but Niklas and Daniil are also doing something important.
>>28721650You can tell us how they feel about being in front of a god or something, but there's not much for them to do right now.
>>28722175This, pretty much; this is Wayne's show, since he knows the most.Just like fighting scenes would be Sally's show (stronger digimon in our group)
ded thread
This was not the response you were expecting. You weren’t sure what you were expecting, but it sure as hell wasn’t this.Mark? What mark is he talking about? You can’t think of anything that would fit that description other than the digivice...but Sally recognized it the minute she saw it, and she herself admitted she didn’t know as much as she should.The only way to know is to ask, you suppose.“If I may ask,” You call up, doing your best to keep your tone respectful even at this volume. “I’m not entirely sure what you mean.” The golden giant tilts his head, his eyes still searching you and your party. After a couple moments, he shakes his head.“It matters not. But THAT,” He points at your digivice. “Where you obtained that I would like to know. And you will tell me…” He turns and gestures beyond the clouds that are still retreating further back. “..In our hall.”Their hall? Oh. OH.Your group was just invited into the hall of the gods.By the one you think is Zeus.Jesus christ.
>>28722870You turn back, send a worried look over to your group. Sally’s looking at you worriedly, while Zoe is absently stroking Aslan’s head while staring at the god you just spoke to. Aslan, too absorbed in the treatment he’s receiving, seems to have forgotten where he is, lost to the world.You try to ask them what’s wrong, but you only get a vague “I’m not sure” from Zoe, and Sally only shakes her head, saying that it’s the “mark” that’s bothering her, though she’s not sure what it could mean. Not sure what else to say, you look back towards the Gods’ hall, and notice that the Golden one seems to have grabbed his “brother” (Poseidon, you think) while you weren’t looking, and is….dragging him away….Wow.You motion for the others to hurry after you, and start after the two gods as the clouds before you finally fall away, revealing a gleaming white and gold building that really reminds you of the Parthenon….if the parthenon was three times larger and had more structures extending out from it.Within the columns and walls of the massive building, you can hear the Kingly Digimon laughing uproariously- not that you would have had trouble with that in the first place.Up the stone steps you climb -not more fucking stairs- and upon passing through the first row of columns, find yourself in a massive…Throne room?It’s not like any throne room you’ve ever seen. It has far too many thrones, for one thing. And it’s absolutely enormous. It’s huge. A building made to fit truly godlike beings…. Thirteen of them, to be exact. At the moment, though, only three of the chairs are filled- Zeus (Jupiter?), Poseidon (Neptune?) and...a third you haven’t seen yet.Unlike the other two, who wear armor that obscures any human-like features they may have, there is no doubt here. >I need a willpower check, 1d20.
>>28722860HehI admire your timing.
>>28722870Try not to squee...squee alot
Rolled 14>>28722907Oh no, this is going to end badly...
>>28722948Well that worked out pretty decently, actually.A good bit above average, at least!
Rolled 17>>28722907
>>28722907Any particular number we need to hit?
>>28722992I like you.
Rolled 2>>28723017Hey, thanks. I kind of enjoy your company as well.
So we got a 17 here.That should be good, right?
>>28723040Fuck. I forgot to remove my dice. My bad guys. Not sure if you're gonna count this or not.
>>28723059Even if he does, we still have that 17 - I think we're doing good.
Rolled 17Damnit Venus!It was hard enough getting Sally and Zoe to agree...
>>28723108>17I approveBesides, pretty sure Lilithmon will outdo Venus in the hotness scale
>>28723140Which one is Venus?
Rolled 7>>28723151Goddess of Love, who else would we need to save against?>>28723140Shit She might be out to get us soon.
>>28723151Venus is the lady of the group.Here's a pic of her, from wikimon
>>28723204She could be the demon of Lust just as much as Lilithmon is.
>>28723226Heh, yeah - but generally she is pretty benevolent, compared to what standard Lilithmon is like.Besides, dark hair>blondes
>>28723251I hear that
>>28722860Do you happen to have a link to whoever made this?
>>28723251Obviously our Sally is gonna be more lovey-dovey towards us, judging by how she's been acting.
>>28723266I know, right?
>>28723303>mfw she'll be even more overprotective of us and won't let anyone get near us
>>28723040since it's a reroll, it's not counted.>>28722948>>28722992>>28723108These are counted.....Well, now. >Writing...fabulously!>iaidat stuffCaptcha wants me to be rurouni? This one does not think so.
>>28723341I know, it's going to be great.
Rolled 19>>28722907I FELL THE WARP OVERTAKING MEIt is a lewd pain
>>28723350I'm now imagining this Quest with an MC dressed like a stereotypical Samurai.It's oddly hilarious.>>287234511 point away from it counting...Sucks, man.
>>28722907...If we happen to watch any wrong spot, I'm pretty sure Sally's going to enter a jealous rage.Let's... let's not watch any wrong parts of Venusmon, guys.
>>28723497But what if the wrong spots seem right?
>>28723528We still don't look! That way leads Great demon Lady Lilithmon leading an army of demons besieging the mountain.
>>28723588Well we know just what to do if we ever need to get rid of the olympian gods
>>28723629Could just ask Sally sweetly after she becomes Lilithmon.But seriously, the smith guy was a bro, and digi-Zeus seems pretty decent as well... would much prefer if they joined back up into the coalition to save the world
So since we get a 17... we did ok, right?
>>28723829You did.You got TWO seventeens. That does in fact count for something.
>>28723920Oh!We count both good rolls?Well that's great.
>>28723959only because they're the same and I thought it'd be interesting.I'll try to make it a thing that doesn't happen often, if you guys feel it makes things too easy.
>>28723989I'm happy with it myself!
>>28723989Does Venus need to roll a will save against us instead? That be fun.
>>28724033Venus does not have a history of great self control.
>>28724082Fun times ahead
Rolled 6>>28724033First of all, I fucking love that manga. It is adorable.secondly....really?I-I guess I could.
>>28724130oh.Oh.Oh Dear.
>>28724130>>28724156HAHAHAHAHAHA, This is gonna be great.Also yes it si adorable
>>28724130Welp.Um, here's to hoping nothing goes wrong?
>>28724156Y-you know, this means that she'll be likely to want us to succeed, right?Not that she'll jump us, right?
>>28724130>>28724156Welp, we insta-recruited Venusmon to our side, it looks like.
>>28724130Oh Jesus, Mary and Joseph, what is going to happen now?
>>28724130THIS ISN'T WHAT I WANTED OR A-ANYTHING! B-BAKA!
>>28724442How many more can we recruit? There are 4 other females right?
>>28724130HAREM QUEST GO HOME
>>28721313So, are we adding a digimon goddess?Mark of Lust confirmed.
>>28724560We're not gonna fuck her just use her to our ends
>>28724532I'm mostly talking about getting her on side with having this group join the fight again.That'd be very nice.I don't even want harem
>>28724130Well THIS is going to be HILARIOUS.
>>28724130I liked the part where the youngest acts like an older sibling to another centaur girl.That is the most adorable part of the whole thing.
>>28724708Wasn't it a sheep girl? Also the triplets and their little sisters dream was too cute. Even if I find that ghost just a little bit freaky
>>28724589You know, the regular crests were about internal qualities of the chosen... maybe the Marks are about what the users inspire in others?
>>28724766Thought it was another centaur, but you might be right.Either way, it was adorable.
>>28724795I want more little antartican adventures
This is going to be great.Really happy we got 2 17's like that.
In the third chair sits a woman. A very large, but absolutely gorgeous woman. Long, blonde tresses fall over the white marble and the dress she’s wearing does absolutely nothing to hide her figu- No. No, stop thinking that. Stop. Something’s not right.You have to stop your eyes from wandering too much, but it matters not. You know who this is in an instant. Aphrodite. Venus. And something about her feels off. Her beauty is TOO perfect. It’s...unnatural. You force yourself to focus on something else- anything else. But that becomes difficult when the titanic goddess locks her gaze upon your group- you think. You’re a bit surprised to see that her eyes are bound with white cloth, yet she somehow can still see you. The Digimon goddess of love pinions you under her gaze, yet does not move, simply staring. A pleasant, hazy sensation begins to seep into your thoughts as you stare where her eyes are hidden, unable to look away. You can feel a slight discomfort in the back of your mind, and latch onto it, holding as tight as your composure will allow you. Belatedly, you realize that as a Goddess of Love, Venus would have to have some sort of power over her domain, and that in this case, it in all likelihood manifests as an aura that permeates her surroundings. Somehow, with this realization comes a sense of relief- like the haze that was slowly diving into your mind has receded, and you shake your head free from the cobwebs that had accumulated in the seconds it took for her presence to seep into you.[1/2]
>>28725208You notice the Goddess quirk an eyebrow in surprise, before the corners of her mouth lift slightly in a small, pleased smile. She sits back in her throne, lounging, and you can feel the aura begin to recede around you. You send a quick glance back to Zoe, Aslan, and Sally, but they seem to have no idea of what just transpired. You’re not too sure about what this means.You force yourself to move on, looking up at the God who invited you in, he was himself sitting down in a chair, staring down at you.“Now then, Wayne the Human, I’d like you to tell me where you got that.” He gestures to your hand, still grasping the Digivice.>[] tell the whole story>[] give the abridged version>[] Lie>[] be very vague>[] write in
>>28725208>>28725233and of course I forget the >Wayne: Will check: 17 PASS>Venusmon: Will check: 6 FAIL>Wayne: Will check: 17 PASSI'm full of derp tonight.
>>28725233> tell the whole story
>>28725233>tell the whole story
>>28725233Spill the beans Wayne
>>28725488I agree. Spill
>>28725488Stop posting comics I love. I'm going to be so distracted now.I'd be perfectly okay if only Queen won the Jae->>28725504Hello best kuudereSo tell the whole story wins out. Alright.Writing!
>>28725661I thought it was very obvious that Queen will win the Jae. What's her name has the betamis maximus kid she training. And I'm sure Dal Dal will fall in love with the hikikomori kid
>>28725661It's a shame thatShe's gotta get married then huh?Queen gets Jae but Moon is still the best.Out of curiostiy how many webtoons have you read?
>>28725715I'd be really surprised if Dal Dal just gave up after everything now. And that Moon Young is going after the kid who's probably even younger than Jae Gu is honestly kinda funny. And Creepy.That moment in the ring, though"One good kick to the temple.">>28725798No.No, stop.Please.Those plot twists make my heart hurt.and not a lot, actually. there's this one manhwa I want translated more than ANYTHING else, and I have the raws up until the last volume for it, but it will never happen because nobody wants to translate another Sung Woo Park series apparently.
>>28725889Which one is it?Also Don't hate me for this but Don't worry she'll find some way to marry JaeAlso if you feel like crying read the friendly winter.
>>28725942I am still writing, by the way.But it's a martial arts manhwa, NOW. The sequel to Chun Rhang Yhur Jhun (legend of the Sirius). I have the first six volumes in english, but that's all that was ever translated, and the series has been around for, I dunno, upwards of eight years.I want to know what happens to my favorite little mini-punisher and his merry band of misfits.
>>28726163Ah Now... Good luck with thatThe most recent thing I've seen of it is a fantransalation on mangahere some group did a another update after 2 years.... in march
>[] Tell the whole storyHe wants to know how? You’re going to tell him how.You begin at the beginning, recounting how you found what would eventually become Sally’s Egg on your computer, and how it emerged, hatched, and became your partner. You go on to describe your first fight, much to his amusement, and how Sally’s second transformation proved to be much more of a boon than you had initially realized. When you mention how she called it a symbol of “the gods’ approval,” Zeus- Jupitermon- chuckles to himself, before beckoning for you to continue. Here and there, Sally will offer her own input, with Zoe occasionally speaking up as well. Jupiter takes it in stride and continues to nod, and when you’ve finished the story, he’s leaning back in his chair, his fingers steepled and his eyes closed in thought.“It’s been far too long since those objects have graced our halls,” He rumbles, and looks down at your group. “Though last I saw them they appeared in the form of something much simpler.” The Poseidon analogue, who with the naming scheme Vulcanusmon established is likely Neptune, speaks up for the first time, looking intently down at the object in your hands.
>>28726825“Far too long indeed- not since we were The Thirteen,” He shifts in his own chair, and gestures with the wicked trident held in his hand at the other thrones around you. “and these places were full of revelry and talk, has one even been whispered of.” He looks down at your group curiously. “But here you tell us that there are four, or possibly more?” He and Jupiter share a glance, before Jupiter nods and turns back to you.“I am sure you are weary from your travels, children.” He suggests kindly, and you note that his use of “children” extends even to your digimon. “Surely, after all that has happened, you’d appreciate a comfortable bed and good food before anything else?”You get the feeling there’s something to this, but it’s not a bad vibe, and you think he’s being genuine in his offer. You look to your friends, and while Aslan looks uncertain, Zoe and Sally seem very interested in the “warm bed and good food” portion of his proposal.Do You…>accept>decline>write-in
>>28726847Accept. You just cannot decline the gods' hospitality.Also, they must have some pretty good food up there.
>>28726847"We'd be delighted to accept this offer of hospitality."Remember greek and roman hospitality mores.
>>28726847Accept it, but try to have some one on watch for the night anyway
>>28726847Eh. I'll accept, but I still don't like it.
>>28726947>acceptDespite whatever misgivings you might have, you know the rules. You don't refuse the hospitality of the gods. Ever."We'd be delighted to accept this offer of hospitality." You reply, humbly, and though you cannot see his face, you know Jupiter is smiling."GOOD, GOOD!" He bellows, standing from his chair and striding out the side of the massive Parthenon. "Follow me, then, to your quarters!" You look to the others, but you can tell by the looks on their faces that they're already thinking of the food and the chance to rest on an actual bed. With a deep breath and a silent "here we go," you start after Jupiter, leaving the columns and thrones behind for the open air and stone roads once more. As you're leaving, though, you feel a familiar sensation at your back- one you've fought off twice now. Venus seems to be staring at your retreating back, though the fact that she hasn't said anything means you could still leave. >[] turn back to see what she wants>[] keep going, ignore her and maybe she'll go away>[] write-in>attraction llndualdarnit captcha, stop it. Stop.
>>28727329Ignore her but subtly keep your eyes on her. Don't want her doing any funny business.
>>28727329Let that the awkwardness commence >[] turn back to see what she wants
>>28727329>>[] turn back to see what she wants>"OH HEY GODDESS OF LOVE AND VENUS. WHY ARE YOU STARING AT ME? WEIRDO"No. Just ignore her. Think of her like a cat. She'll go away.
>>28727329>[x] turn back to see what she wantsIntrigue. Also you know what you don't do to Aphrodite? Ignore her. Greek her was a bit of an attention whore.
>>28727417>Think of her like a cat. She'll go away.you do not know my cat.
Well you're tied. And I vote for ignoring her. If you ignore a bitch, the more they want you.
>>28727329I don't know which would be the worst idea, giving her attention or ignoring her.We might be fucked literally or not either way.
>>28727379>ignore her but keep your eyes on here.This is a riddle...
>>28727825You know what I meant.
Just ignore her, for now.
I think you guys are forgetting one of the Greek hospitality mores. You oblige your hosts requests. She obviously has something to say.
So we're going with Ignore?Alright. It'll be a while- there's something I have to do before I can get to the writing.
>>28728200Is this another vote? If so, we're at another tie...
>>28728477Fuck it, I say we see what she wants. I don't think it is a good idea but I'm really curious.
>>28727329>[x] turn back to see what she wantsOh dear, oh dear oh dear. Lets see what the nice lady wants.
>>28728667If that's what you guys want... o..ok I guess.Go for it Gale
Ugh, you niggas. Fine. Ask the God what she wants.
>>28728585>>28728667I hope this doesn't piss off Sally or Zoe, us running off to talk to the goddess of love and all.
>>28728867I just hope it doesn't piss of Sally. Don't give a single shit about Zoe.
>>28728585>>28728667>>28728807>>28728815>>28728867Oh, well then.Time to start writing again.>>28728894>Don't give a single shit about ZoeI-I'm sorry you feel that way, anon.
>>28728894Yea Sally is our "Partner", Zoe feels more like a little sister.
>>28729337Don't worry Gale, I don't like her because of how you portray her it's just... it's complicated.
>>28730117Yes, yes, I admit this post is taking far longer than it should.It'll be done soon. I promise.On another note, would you like a perk for Wayne?
>>28730227W-what kind of perk?
>>28730239Nothing Cosgrove "enough is enough" tier.I'm not that cruel.
>>28730258Gonna have to give us more information than that, coach.

>>28730577Dat perk.So when do we get the suduction perk?
>>28730763NO. HAREM QUEST GO HOOOOOOOOME
>[]Turn back and see what she wantsPart of you really wants to ignore her. To just follow Sally and Zoe and Aslan, who are already ahead of you, and forget she beckoned you altogether.But another part of you recognizes not only that she might have something important to say, but just how rude that would be. You’d be going against one of the rules of hospitality if you did so, and to ignore Venus of all people…It wouldn’t end well. You know that much.And a third, small part of you, in the back of your mind, is willing to admit that maybe you would like to talk to her after all…With a sigh, you look back to the goddess behind you, acknowledging her...presence.“You would speak with me?” You ask, keeping the same polite tone you had used when speaking with Vulcanusmon and Jupitermon. No sense in doing it halfway, you suppose. Venus merely smiles and nods, beckoning you closer.more than a bit wary, you slowly make your way closer, bracing for the feeling of her entrancing air that is sure to come…Any minute now….And yet it doesn’t. You’re now no less than ten yards from the giant Digimon, and yet you’re not suffering any of the effects of her aura. Perplexed, you send her a look that you’re certain states your confusion, eliciting a small, if rather refined laugh from the Goddess. You’re not at all surprised that even that sounds beautiful.“You interest me, Wayne , Human of the Other Realm.” She says simply, a faint smile still tugging at her lips. “I would very much like to speak with you later tonight, if that pleases you.” She pauses, then seems to think to herself. “Perhaps when the others are asleep, so that we may speak uninterrupted?”It takes a tremendous amount of effort not to consider any alternative interpretations of her words, but you do manage it. Thinking on the matter, you…>[] Accept. She just might have something important to say.>[] Deny. You really don’t think she wants to just talk.
>>28731049oh, and of course >[] Write in
>>28731049>“Perhaps when the others are asleep, so that we may speak uninterrupted?”She works fast. Also no.
>>28731049>AcceptWhile we're here, we might as well pass along Vulkanismon's message?
>>28731049>[x] Accept. She just might have something important to say.If we say no after stopping to talk to her it would be a deliberate affront.
>>28731049"Apologies for not telling you earlier, but your husband asked me to pass along a message. Namely, for me to tell you that he's doing fine and not to worry about him."
Actually, I think I'll be putting it on hold for tonight. We can pick up tomorrow, yes?
>>28731049>Accept, if it's about what I think it is we might be the first person to get our patron deity. I'm drooling just thinking of the bonuses that could net us. Also because she might have some information that could be valuable. She is based off the data of a God after all. Plus we should pass on Vulkanismon's message.
>>28731187Might as well. Pretty dead right now.
>>28730920It was a joke dude chill
>>28731212Then in that case...[DIGIMON QUEST: TO BE CONTINUED TOMORROW]
>>28731049Accept. also, didn't Vulcan ask us to tell Venus that he was all right and doing fine?
>>28731318patiently awaiting Gale's return...
>>28734131Don't worry mister man, I'm here with ya.
Waiting along with everyone else.
...Could we accept and then let Sally know so she can stay awake with us?
>>28731485Yeah, let's accept and tell her that.
Bumping, for the future!
So any idea when Gale is coming back?
>>28738364He generally comes back at about 21:00 UTC+1.Or 22:00
Should be about 1 hour now.
>>28739600Ask and ye shall receive.Now then, I believe the vote was very much in favor of accepting her request?
>>28739847Yeah, seems like it?
>>28739847Welcome back Gale.Have you mentioned in the account that you're running again?
>>28739847Welcome back, and yes lets do it Gale
>>28739960I have now. Thank you for the reminder.
>>28740056No problem....Venusmon didn't actually ask us not to say anything to the others, though, did she?
>>28740334She did not- she only asked that you speak with her when you wouldn't be interrupted.
>>28740413We agreed right?
>>28740487you did, and the writing has begun. Would you like to include anything specific beyond Vulcanusmon's message?
>>28740562Maybe ask about the supposed Mark Jupitermon saw
>>28740590Noted, and the Writing has begun.
Oh boy oh boy oh boy. Woke up just in time.
>>28740887that you did.>[] Accept. She just might have something important to say.You take a moment to consider what Venusmon is asking you.You can’t think of any reasons you SHOULDN’T agr- okay, no, that’s bullshit. You can think of a lot of them. But you can also think of several reasons why, yet again, turning her down would be a bad idea. The foremost of which being that if she REALLY wanted to, she could probably use her powers on you. The fact that she isn’t, and is just asking, means there’s probably more to her request than she’s letting on. Slowly, yet respectfully, you nod.“If it would please you,” you answer, turning her own words upon her. Venus only smiles wider. “...But I will have some questions of my own to ask you.” You finish, watching for her reaction closely.To her credit, the Goddess isn’t fazed at all by your answer, and merely nods, as if to say ‘that seems fair.’ You’re about to leave after your friends, when you’re suddenly struck by another thought- something you nearly forgot. You turn back to look up at the Goddess of Love, who is still looking down upon you with that smile of hers.“Vulcanusmon sends you his regards, by the way.” Instantly, her expression changes to one of concern, and she leans a bit closer, you think to hear your words clearer.“He does? What did he say? How has he been? We have missed him up here very much-” One moment, she’s composed and elegant as a statue, and the next, she’s unleashed a barrage of questions far too fast for you to answer.“He-He’s doing fine, he says,” You sutter out, “And he doesn’t want you to worry about him.” You can sort of see why he asked that, too.For a moment, Venus doesn’t react, but then, her smile returns, and she shakes her head.[1/3]
>>28741619“That is so very much like him, not wanting me to worry.” She looks back down at you. “I thank you for passing on his words… and I look forward to speaking with you later. For now, though, I believe it best that you catch up with your companions.” She gestures behind you, and you realize you can barely see them down the road. With a hurried thanks and a resolution to ask the Goddess about the “mark” mentioned by Jupiter, you hurry to catch up to the rest of your group.Once you have, it’s with some small relief that you realize only Sally noticed your disappearance- Zoe and Aslan seem far too enraptured with their surroundings. You signal to her that you’ll tell her later, and she nods in understanding. Just in time, too, as you notice Jupiter has led your party to a smaller building… smaller, but still not entirely human-sized. You can’t complain, however, when you see that it’s filled with comfortable looking-lounges and a number of beds and tables.“This is where our...smaller guests often stayed, many cycles ago.” Jupiter’s voice seems...nostalgic, as if reliving a past glory, but you can also hear a faint trace of sadness in his words. He does not dwell on it for very long, however, as he shows you to one of the tables- the largest one, in fact, which is already piled high with food. “The delights of this land shall never run dry, my guests,” He crowes, and gestures to the table. “Sit, feast, and in the morn, we shall talk more! I must go, but please, do not hold back on my account!” He laughs, and then walks back to the throned temple, his large strides still causing small tremors in the ground beneath you.[2/3]
>>28741640But that’s already left your mind as you take in the view before you. Breads, meats, fruits, juices and wines abound in a massive display of extravagance on the stone table, lined with chairs made to fit digimon of varying sizes. You can hear your own stomach protesting its hunger and your delay, and you so very much want to dig in, but…Should you? Contentment leads to mistakes. Your legends and myths have taught you that much. On the other hand, hunger weakens, and you can’t afford that. Sensing your mental dilemma, Sally nudges you with one of her elbows.“Wayne, is something wrong?”>Do you have anything to say, or do you want to eat?
>>28741666I NEED FOOD
>>28741666Chow down
>>28741666Talk while eating?If we want to tell Sally about the meeting with Venusmon, now's the time.
>>28741666So...When was the last time we ate?
So...Eating?
>>28742173Yes
>>28742196Well then, dinner time it is.
>>28742665my apologies. I actually was eating. Ended up burning part of it, unfortunately. Ah well.Now then, it seems we're unanimous on wanting to eat, with one suggestion to tell Sally about Venus during the meal?
>>28742727Yes.
>>28742727Ah, food...Yeah, that's understandable.Sucks about it burning though, Gale.
>>28742739Very well, then. The writing begins.>>28743036It was my own fault. I wasn't paying attention to the oven. It was still edible, though, so not too much harm done.
>>28743126Well that's a relief.Glad you got to eat something then.
Hm, when's autosage begin again?
>>28744011at about 300 posts. We're not there just yet. Also, still writing. Sorry it's taking too long.
>>28744047Take your time Gale, we'll be here waiting.
And I just realized I was getting ahead of myself. A short post now, and then a longer one next.And you have until autosage to decide what you want the interlude to be about>[] Tell Sally about Venus’s invitation, eatYou motion for her to sit down with you, on the opposite side of the table from Zoe and Aslan, who are already selecting their meals from the spread, and begin to do the same. Sally, confused at first, merely plays along and searches for something to eat as well, while still keeping her attention on you. Quietly, you recount what just transpired to her, and your decision to accept Venus’s offer to speak later tonight. She pauses in the middle of gently picking up a particularly shiny and juicy-looking apple with her claw tips, before slowly bringing it up to her lips.“Do you want me to be there, Wayne?” As she bites into the fruit, you think about it; do you want her to be there with you? Venusmon never said you had to be alone, but then again, exploiting loopholes isn’t very smart when dealing with gods, unless it manages to impress them.And Venus DID say “when the others are asleep”...>[] I’d rather not risk it>[] It might be better if you did>[] Write-in
>>28744299Don't risk it, go alone, also any limits on what the interlude can be?Can we see the true bad guys? If if they all manage tohide in the shadows even through text
>>28744343The interlude can be of any character. Even ones you have not met yet.Though if you'd like, I could offer a non spoiler-y selection.
>>28744490 Nope. Stick with Wayne
>>28744490Shit man I loved those little scene with the villans way before the hero met them. Let get us some villains in here.Or stick with wayne if that what everyone wants
>>28744508It's an interlude.What would you like it to be about if I stuck with Wayne?
>>28744557>What would you like it to be about if I stuck with Wayne?I don't know. Punching shit.
>>28744508This is just to be an interlude, though - what could we have for interlude with Wayne?
>>28744563That is incredibly unclear, and not all that helpful.
>>28744299No risksWhat's Venus's and Vulcanus's relationship?
>>28744605As you may have noticed, a few of the relationships between the gods or their personalities are the same here as they are in the myths.In this case? They are not married, and there is no actual, solidified romantic relationship, but there is quite a lot of affection, and more than some concern over one another's well being.
>>28744777Fucking Gods and their inability to have stable relationships.I suffer from the same problem, but I'm also a mortal so it's acceptable.
I say we check up on Niklas.Or that guy in charge of the city.
Well, you have until Autosage to decide.For now, though, we're not risking it?
>>28745006Not risking it.Also, how about having Aslan's point of view for the interlude? The little guy has been ignored since we got to the digital world. We're at the point where he'd need more than a digivolution to become relevant again.
>>28745092Fuck the villains I didn't think of Aslan that'd be perfect
>>28745322What's he going to show us, though?We're all in the same mountain.
>>28744777So Mars isn't doing his thing?
>>28745322Eh, I'm good with either villains or Sanzomon's entourage.
>>28745372He should have a lot going on, actually. His Zoe is clearly attracted to the guy with the unholy partner, who is also much stronger than him. Could a holy digimon trust a witch who renounced to her holiness? And the human is no different, seeing how close they are.Also, he knows he can't protect Zoe unless he digivolves the second they step out of Olympus.
>>28745742No.No, he is not.>>28746023Well, now I don't have to write that!
Hurry and pick something. I want us to progress more before I die of old age.
Well I'm going to say we check on what Niklas and Daniil are doing.>>28746023...We need to get LadyDevimon before we step away from this place.Because I want to keep it going with Sally always being one step better than Aslan.
>>28746203He's writing already - this is just what we're going to be doing when autosage kicks in.
>>28746174Why don't you just roll for it?
>>28746336If no one can come to an agreement, yeah, might as well.
I kept getting distracted by things. I'm sorry.>[] I’d rather not risk itAfter a moment’s consideration, you shake your head.“No, I’d rather not upset one of our hosts by disobeying her conditions.” You reply. Your partner frowns, and puts the apple down, staring at it for a bit, before sighing and nodding.“Alright, Wayne. I’ll agree to this. But if you need me, I’ll be awake.” She looks you in the eyes, her expression one of seriousness. “Understand? You’ll only need to call, and I’ll be there to help you.” Her words stir something within you, but you bury the feeling for the moment. You’ll have time to think about such things later. For now, you only nod your thanks, and begin to eat.The meal progresses well. The food is delicious, succulent and flavorful to the point of being too good to bear, and you have to resist the urge to eat too much of it. Sally and Aslan, with their Digimon metabolism, have no such issues, and devour food at a rate that is suitably inhuman.Before you know it, the sky has darkened, and the stars have begun to shine through the layer of clouds above your heads.With your later meeting in mind, you suggest Zoe get some sleep early, since it’s been a long day, a suggestion she agrees with readily.With Aslan nearby to guard your friend, You and Sally can only wait until it’s time.
>>28747942You make some small talk, but there’s not a lot to talk about in the first place, and you eventually run out of topics. Several times, Sally tries to offer to go with you to speak with Venus, but your mind is made up on the matter.You wait for a while longer, watching the sun sink beneath the horizon, before finally dimming and turning the sky to night, the moon taking its place in the heavens. Heh, the Heavens. Thinking about where you are, those words don’t seem to carry as much meaning anymore.And speaking of heavenly bodies, Venus has yet to show up. You’re beginning to wonder if she jilted you-A hand on your shoulder- a human hand, not Sally’s claw shakes you out of your thoughts.Turning to face the other person, you’re greeted with the instantly recognizable features of the Goddess you’re waiting for.Only… she’s not a giant anymore. She’s now the size of a normal human woman, plus maybe a foot or so. You look over to where Sally was sitting, only to find that she’s now sound asleep. Well, at least she looks comfortable. Venus smiles at you, before joining you in staring at the stars.“Rather beautiful, aren’t they?” She asks, and you can only nod, unsure of what else to say. “Quite a few of them were once my friends. Before all this began, that is.”>questions you want to ask? Things you want to say?
>>28748009"You said there's a mark on me. What is it?"
>>28748053This, let's start with the mark.
>>28748009One of the things we could ask would be about Vulkanis's apprentice, since he asked us to look into him.But in general ask her if she wants to talk about it I guess?Like it might be a while since she's gotten a chance to talk to much of anyone, since have we even seen any servants?
>>28748215Don't start off with being all business I mean.
>>28749358well, I would have liked a few more submissions, but this'll have to do for now.One more post, then I'll work on the Interlude once you guys have decided what it'll be. Them it'll be posted either tonight or next saturday.
>>28750056actually, change of plans. I'm going to have to end it here, quest-wise. However, if you decide what the interlude is to be before autosage, I'll put it in the google doc. tomorrow, if that sounds fair enough.
>>28723279also, it took forever, but the artist was Katou Teppei. Most of their stuff is NSFW.
>>28751132how about from the perspective of the gods who sent out the Digivices? perhaps of their observations of the human world, their decisions and reasons for sending each of the chosen their particular partner (assuming it was not randomly selected...)
How about a glimpse into Venusmons past. Relationship with Volcanusmon or whatever his name is.
>>28719836Wouldn't it be amusing if either Sally or Zoe found Sleep mode Belphemon and took him along due to his being cute....
>>28752234>>28752264So, one last check before I succumb to sleep, and it seems most of the votes lean towards finding out about villains, or gods.I can compromise, and write something small about each, if that would suffice?
>>28752865Yes. Goodnight.
>>28752865Villains? are you saying that the 'bad guys' gave us the Digivices? or are you saying that the Olympian Gods are the 'bad guys'?
>>28752865
>>28752928I'm talking about the earlier votes for villain interludes.
>>28753010oh. my bad...
