You are Reinhold, master swordsman and victor of the Royal Swordsmanship Tournament. The King was so impressed with your skill, he personally requested that you be transferred out of the army and into the Royal Guard! Not bad for an orphan who was raised in a brothel in a poor fishing village.The only issue at this point is your assignment... you've been charged to be the personal guard of the King's only daughter Marianne. While she is the vision of loveliness that you'd expect from a Princess, her personality is... well... she seems to have some issues.Today's the day of the long-awaited party!After getting up and greeting the Princess, you headed to Princess Luciana's room to check on her.>Congratulations, you are now a mangy DOG!>While dogs are loyal, they're not all that smart...>The Princess now considers you to be her friend!>But while dogs are man's best friend, they still don't count as people.Thread archive:http://suptg.thisisnotatrueending.com/archive.html?searchall=Princess+Guard+QuestCharacter list + descriptions (in progress):http://pastebin.com/1Vhj4DJvList and descriptions of the spells shown thus far:http://pastebin.com/2c9y2sDMTwitter:https://twitter.com/QM_ArchelonQuest compilation that's kindly maintained by a person who isn't me:https://www.dropbox.com/sh/n4nhs9gd0kmnnni/04tpEy5_pe>>
>"I'd like to apologize for last night," Luciana says, sighing deeply. "I know I'm rather unpleasant when I get mad, and that probably scared you off... but, um... I really appreciate that you came here to check on me," she says, rubbing her bloodshot eyes."Huh? That's not why I left," you reply. I was just worried about Marianne.""That might have been the excuse you gave, but I was still pretty awful..." Luciana says, sighing deeply."You handled yourself pretty well," you say in an attempt to cheer her up. "To be honest, I'd have killed that guy myself if I could have.""Seriously though, you don't have anything to apologize about," you say. "If anything, I should be apologizing to you for running off like I did and not coming back after I checked on Marianne."As she comes to the realization that your words are genuine, tears start to well in Luciana's already-reddened eyes. Taking a deep breath, she does her best to regain her composure."Ehehe... you know, it's everything I can do to keep from hugging you right now," Luciana says with a weak smile. "But even ignoring the risk of being alone in my room with the boy I like, Marianne already warned me about being too forward," she laughs.KNOCK KNOCK KNOCKBefore you can even respond to that last comment, you hear someone knocking on the door."...oh, they're here already?" Luciana says as she gets up from her seat and hurries to the door. "Just a minute, Reinhold..."Luciana opens her door, revealing a maid who is standing by a food cart."Good morning, Princess," the maid says with a deep bow. "I've brought your breakfast.""Ah, thank you," Luiciana replies, "Umm, Reinhold? Would you like something too?">come to think of it, you haven't eaten a thing since gorging yourself on spaghetti yesterday afternoon...>no thanks, you'll eat somewhere else

>>28749056>>come to think of it, you haven't eaten a thing since gorging yourself on spaghetti yesterday afternoon...
>>28749056no reason to turn her down, it's not like we're the ones that ate 8+ plates of spaghetti
>>28749056>come to think of it, you haven't eaten a thing since gorging yourself on spaghetti yesterday afternoon...CONSUME
>>28749099spells we should learn in my opnion.
>>28749056>come to think of it, you haven't eaten a thing since gorging yourself on spaghetti yesterday afternoon...Sure why not.>"But even ignoring the risk of being alone in my room with the boy I like, Marianne already warned me about being too forward," she laughs.See people, she did listen.
>>28749056>come to think of it, you haven't eaten a thing since gorging yourself on spaghetti yesterday afternoon..."If it isn't any trouble I wouldn't mind a bite to eat."
>>28749056>come to think of it, you haven't eaten a thing since gorging yourself on spaghetti yesterday afternoon...>though that was quite a bit of spaghetti>Maybe a muffin and some toast with something to drink>gotta watch out of that Reinhard body of ours
>>28749056>>come to think of it, you haven't eaten a thing since gorging yourself on spaghetti yesterday afternoon...She could probably use the company, sort of fitting action to words that we're not disturbed by her.
>>28749056>come to think of it, you haven't eaten a thing since gorging yourself on spaghetti yesterday afternoon...No reason to refuse hospitality, that would be rude.Strike up some conversation, too, ideally. Try to get more of an idea of what we're in store during the ball today.
>>28749141she admitted that if it wasn't for her friends warning that she would be groping us.
>>28749056[consuming intensifies]Spaghetti Quest is go!
>>28749132not gonna argue about the list but we don't really have time to learn a spell right now, what with the party only a few hours away and we shouldn't empty our mana pools
>>28749056>come to think of it, you haven't eaten a thing since gorging yourself on spaghetti yesterday afternoon..."Actually, I'd love something - if it isn't too much trouble.">Later"You know, if you're dead set, I could probably handle a hug. Just saying."
>>28749099Might be better to repost that next time we're about to learn magic. I know I won't remember any of it right now.
>>28749056>eat breakfast with lucianajusttry not to consume too hard
>>28749195Oh i know, just saying we should try to get those first, and people should try to stop avoiding the mage as well.
>>28749056>>come to think of it, you haven't eaten a thing since gorging yourself on spaghetti yesterday afternoon...Tell her we let our friends hug us.
>>28749195Agreed for now, lets discuss it again in 3 or 5 threads time when we're past the ball.
>>28749219I like this one
>>28749243Its way too many spells and all marked 'good'.You need to narrow down the list for what would be the best for reinhold to obtain earliest to cover the gaps in his capabilities.
>>28749056Eat food, take a hug. We aren't some sort of robot here, and she is a friend
>>28749056>come to think of it, you haven't eaten a thing since gorging yourself on spaghetti yesterday afternoon...our tummy is probably growling by now.
>>28749231It all good it will probably change a bit as we learn about new spells.>>28749056>>come to think of it, you haven't eaten a thing since gorging yourself on spaghetti yesterday afternoon...>>28749195forgot to ask if we should improve our understanding of clay spread with sylvie.
>>28749243first we should get is takamaru teaching us that thing he used to cut a guy in half from 20 feet away
>>28749181and if it wasn't for Arch ignoring the suggestions, we would have been groping Marianne during the second thread.
>>28749246this is pretty good, it allows us to hug her but it's not like, leading her on
>>28749182"Actually princess that'd be grea-">reinhold slips while trying to stand up>headbuts Luciana, breaking his nose>rolls onto the ground, soils self"O-oh gawd I'm so sorrry">attempts to push self up, slips on his own nose blood>throws up as spaghetti from the contest yesterday falls out of our pocketsSorry I am too easily amused, i'll be quiet now
>>28749283true, want to try ordering them based on need?
>>28749302I'm doubtful that will work - doesn't he use a katana? That's more of a speed thing, and I think the Eschenwald style is more strength. I don't think we CAN learn it.
>>28749302>>28749332we could try asking if he has a book based on his peoples spells, and have sylvie or arnuald help us pick a few spells for them to teach us.
>>28749056>come to think of it, you haven't eaten a thing since gorging yourself on spaghetti yesterday afternoon...>"I wouldn't want to impose..."
>>28749332It's both speed and strength. It sounds like a pretty overwhelming style, actually. Probably takes the whole "best defense is a good offense" to heart.
>>28749332I'd love to but currently on a phone.
>>28749099It seems to me that your opinion is 'learn everything'.I think the problem is order, they're all good spells.
>>28749099getting a couple of healing spells will be darn useful... if not life saving. the defense spells are also good ones to pick up for our line of work.the flight spells will also be needed, because darn it, climbing buildings isn't diginfied.boost, colossus hold and morning fog is a good one too, but i rate them a the next step up. the attack spells should be picked up later when we can get them.
>>28749302We should probably have the basics down better and a larger mana pool before we start trying to learn fancy sword magic like that.
>>28749056>come to think of it, you haven't eaten a thing since gorging yourself on spaghetti yesterday afternoon...THE HUNGER
Does any remember how much mana Reinhold has? Spirit Field sounds like a good indicator to knowing how powerful a magic user is if they use them. I can't wait to see how this will be written whenever it's used, it sounds like it could be potentially gorgeous to outright horrifying depending on the element.How long until unlimited blade works/ gate of babylon jokes for Fragment Blader and Lancer?
>>28749381>asking takamaru if he carries a book>takamaru can't read>he looks all sad and moe>we scratch our head awkwardly
What does Reinhold look like? Like his hair color and build and shit
>>28749332Speaking of The Eschenwald style - Fragment Blader might be nice for temporarily switching to the proper dual-blade version, especially since if the magic one breaks, just recast and keep going.
>>28749433
>>28749400i just pruned that list from the ones posted i believe i only cut the list posted in half.
>Just finished catching up>77 threads>started in Sept.Jesus H christ arch, do you have caffeine for blood?
>>2874941560 something i think>>28749417i thought he just couldn't read our language. though either way asking for a book would be useless
>>28749433shortish brown hair blue eyes built lean and toned like a japanese yaoi game main character
>>28749447That's actually kind of a fun idea. Doesn't matter if Fragment Blade makes swords that are pieces of shit because the sword was never going to survive for long anyways.mite b cool.
>writing
>>28749415We'll have to make those spells if we can.
>>28749433There is no definite image to what he looks like, but I like this one.I hope that drawfriend is still in this thread.
>>28749494>>28749433archelon said this was the closest to what he imagined.
>>28749458 he is in fact an A.I. and does not need sleep
>>28749447since our element is metal i wonder if we may be able to get some kind of upgraded version so that the swords we make aren't poor qualityalso modify shock front so it can be delivered through a sword and upgrade our swordbreaker
>>28749475Combined with Boost, it'd be a hell of a blitz tactic.
>>28749494Reposting with the updated image of him.
>>28749546If nothing else, we might be good at it because of our devotion to SWORD. Sorry, couldn't resist.
>>28749559Very nice Mr. Drawguy. Please keep it up.
>>28749056>come to think of it, you haven't eaten a thing since gorging yourself on spaghetti yesterday afternoon...Lets have at least a little something to eat. Reinhold deserves it, he had a bad night
>>28749494>>28749559I don't know who drew him , but I really love Reinbrush Threephold.
>>28749494>>28749559
>>28749458It certainly proves he has the work ethic to make this a VN.
>>28749458Caffeine doesn't work on me, actually.I run on pure stubbornness.
>>28749546Both good ideas. Violently disarming an enemy and creating a wall of swords function as both offense and defense, and so fit into our primary objective as a guard.
>>28749603Tenacity is a man's romance! Let nothing hold you back!
>>28749603And anti-powergaming
>>28749433For some reason I always imagine that he looks like Rudy from Brave Soul.
>>28749596Is there any wonder why all the girls fall for his charm?
>>28749559>>28749596I really like these.
>>28749332If you want a fast sword, you don't use a fat blade with nonflexible steel. Which pretty much means a rapier.
>>28749546>also modify shock front so it can be delivered through a sword and upgrade our swordbreakerSomeone else liked the idea!
>>28749332Higher strenght = more speedHigher speed = more strenghtIt's not one or the other, you get both or you get neither.
>>28749603Zeon would be proud
>>28749709I was making reference to the katana's design, being meant for high speed slashing as opposed to a straight sword (like ours), which uses more mass for impact. Fighting with a katana instead of, say, a broadsword is different. I imagine Takamaru's style focuses on this, with his spells, and I don't think we can learn them with our weapon and style.>>28749752See previous part of this post - it was more a point of weapon design, not a statement on physics.
>>28749448Honestly, I prefer not-Adol Reinhold.
>>28749759I do my best.
>Stone Shell>Cost: 4MP (base: 5MP)>Element: Earth>Effect: A large half-dome of stone forms in front of the caster's hand, about six feet in diameter. This dome moves along with the caster's hand for as long as the spell is maintained.I think we should try to learn this spell. It's a shield we can direct made of stone(!metal) we can direct the direction of. Should be a lot more durable than Holy Shrine, and if we combine it with tailwind we could use our battering ram tactic from before. If it changes to metal because of our alignment all the better.
>>28749332So we play to our advantage.Shockwaves. Swing so hard that everything in front of us explodes. I'm pretty sure Taka's thing was magic assisted, so we can work on making a new style of sword-magic that works in the same way as his, but with different techniques.IE, don't bother being a hybrid mage/swordsman, after we get the basics we should go full spellsword up in this bitch. Sword magic or bust.
>>28749834Actually, that's not what Katana is designed for, it's designed as a highly effective pulling sword, so you can get as deep of a cut as possible in a single pull. But it really doesn't matter either way, this is fantasy and it doesn't need to reflect real life.
Naturally, it is at this exact moment that your stomach decides to make the fact that its HUNGER hasn't been sated since yesterday afternoon known. As both Luciana and the maid hear the growling anger of your innards, they stifle their laughter."Er... I think I'll take you up on that offer," you say with a nervous laugh."Very well," the maid says with a bow.She then proceeds into the room, where she prepares two loaves of bread and several pieces of cheese on plates on the table."Actually, I hear that Reinhold here is a big eater..." Luciana giggles."Ah, I see," the maid replies as she places another loaf of bread on the table before taking her leave.So Marianne wrote to Luciana about THAT too... it makes you wonder if she tells Luciana about every little detail of her life."Sorry if there isn't much here," Luciana says as she sits back down next to you. "I generally don't eat very much for breakfast.""That's fine," you reply as you hungrily eye the food tht sits before you. "I'm the one who's imposing, anyways.">talk about something before you CONSUME?
>>28750109Say that we let our friends hug us. Make sure the implication is clear.
>>28750109ask if she can recommend any spells regarding our element.
>>28749603hey archelon-san, is there a sent number Reinhold can learn in total?
>>28750109Just CONSUME
>>28750109Talk about the party. Maybe if she got a present for her brother?
>>28750109Ask about her grimoire collection. Why does she find them interesting? How many does she have? And so on.
>>28750124I second this, in the sense that I don't want everyone to treat us like we have the plague.
>>28750151Er, I don't understand what exactly you're asking.
>>28750109Thank her for the food. Ask about the party.
>>28750109Ask about the party and if there's anyone she feels we should particularly watch ourselves around.
>>28750109As much as I'd like to ask what Marianne is saying about us in character....Reinhold would probably not want that kind of confrontationso I guess it's gonna have to be casual talk about the party and Emilo
>>28750202I think he means set number of spells.
>>28750098we talked about this when the spell first came up there was 2 major problems people found about it.1.The upkeep would catch up quickly with us2.it would be hard to protect the princess in that.
>>28750109if she's okay after last night and if she really needs a hug
>>28750202I assume he's asking if there's a limit to the number of spells Reinhold can learn?
>>28750109.... ask her about Marieanne's habit of giving people animal ranks.
>>28750224That would be a negatory. You can learn as many spells as you can remember the spells for.
>>28750109"So, whats your itinerary for the party? Will you be staying close to your father or mingling with the crowd?"
>Watch Twitter constantly>Decide I'll have time before the next PGQ>Play DotA match>Miss thread startFUCKWell, posting it anyway.
>>28750241do we know about that ranking in character? i know she's called us different animals, but the only talk about a rank i've heard is from the openings and the marianne-lucianna talk that we weren't around for
>>28750109Just talk about the party and ask her what her magic affinity is.(we aren't initiating a hug, we will allow one if she gives it.)
>>28750109I'd like to back up the animal ranking thing, its a bit odd
>>28750109Ask about the party and what sorts of things will be happening during it, just in case there is more than just dancing to "enjoy". And maybe consider giving her a dance(as a friend), when she will inevitably ask Reinhold for one, to make up for running off last night.
>>28750269you should make one for the ones being too aggressive as well.
>>28750100There's a point. For all the good projectile spells will do us, our core strength is our ability to sword gud.So if there's a style that consists of using a sword and magic to do crazy ass things like cutting dudes from 20 feet away, blowing people into the sky or shattering armour, then we should totally learn that.Maybe ask Takamaru if that's actually a thing, when we get the chance?
>>28750303Offering a FRIENDLY dance to make up for being flaky isn't a bad idea.AS FRIENDS.
>>28750294That'd be a good thing to chat about.She loves the magic.
>>28750109"I like hugs by the way, you don't have to hold back for my sake."She'll probably hug us, make sure to hug her back.For eating we can invent the sandwich, put some cheese in between slices of bread. Talk to her over breakfast. As we're talking to her mention that if she actually wants to know about our past she can just ask, we don't mind telling our friends.
>>28750246On another note, are there Fragment spells for every weapon? Basically, I'm asking if there's a Fragment Axe to complete the weapon triangle.
>>28750337Don't they already have sandwiches in this setting?
>>28750320>>28750269Don't forget the >MUH TRAUMA ass holes.
>>28750341Fragment Tomahawk.That series of spells has many variations.
>>28750320That comes under being angry when posting I guess.
>>28750337i think the sandwich already exist and is common in this world. not sure if ice cream exist yet.
>>28750406I'm keep reading "Fragment Blader" as "Fragment Bladder"Arc, please help me.
>>28750428>"Fragment Bladder"Sounds devastating!
>>28750371They might have. The basic idea of the sandwich has been around for a while, though it was seen as something for working men and not that common to the upper classes, at least in Europe, until around the 18th century.
>>28750109"Back to the former topic.""What exactly did she warn you about?"
>>28750428Well he did say the spell had many variations.
>>28750428>Come to me! Fragment... Bladder!>a jagged stone bladder forms in your hand>Sylvie tries her best to be impressed... but is just embarrassed. "G-good job, Reinhold...">she starts avoiding you from then on>you never have dinner with her parents and earn her dad's approval
>>28750537Nonsense, it'd be metal.And she'd find it really cute.
>>28750537Anyone who knows reinhold would probably just keel over laughing.
>>28750537More like>Sylvie tries her best not to explode with laughter>And yet her best is not enough
You said every element has a flying spell. It think I have one for earth.Cost: 4MPElement: earthIncantation:Effect: A large floating rock rises out of the ground, enabling flight. Both the level of fine control and the top speed are less than that of Starlight Wing. The spell still works weather or not the user is the one riding it.>You could form the rock under someone else and move them around assuming they are close by and don’t move out of the way.
>>28750537>she starts avoiding you from then oni see her nearly dieing of laughter and teasing us for it for years to come
Ah, before I forget:I added the list of magical spells to the ebooks. For conveniences sake, I also organized them into a standalone .html table (can be found in the dropbox).If you download the .js file, you can sort the table by name/element/mana cost.
[Should get as soon as possible]>RefreshA healing spell is always good, plus its cheap and easy to learn.>Healing GraceAn even stronger healing spell doesn't hurt, but it doesn't fix serious injuries like broken bones.>Null SphereIt stops anyone with out a pointed object in their tracks and would work well for trapping unarmed opponents.>Shade GuardSimilar to holy shine, except it only stops the damage and not the force, it is also affected by shadows>Aurora FieldA quick drop and forget spell when being chased or setting up traps.[Spells we should try to get after the above]>Ebon Wing>Starlight WingGetting both of these is good in case some one has a spell designed to take out light and the same for shadow, plus these combo well with tailwind.>BoostA great buff spell for oh shit moments, we might need to train up our stamina for repeated uses. >Morning FogHelps for escapes and defense from long ranged attacks.>Arctic BladeA ranged spell that works with our sword.>Glacial SunderIt worked decently on us and it seems like a good spell for a body guard.[Spells that we should get too after doing the ones above.]>Stardust WingI'm hoping we can learn this from one of the dragons we met since it sounds like a better spell than the other two flying spells.>Zephyr WingWould love to learn this one if people want to overcome learning curve since its the best flying spell around.>Fragment Lancer>Fragment Bladergood spells for when we don't have a weapon on hand or an ally need one>Colossus HoldBasically a hand made of earth(metal), it has multiple uses.>Vajra SparkA good ranged attack that can be used with our sword or hands.
>>28750601Sooo, Earthbending?
>>28750601that sounds like uprise, i think the earth spell would create wings of sand or earth.
>>28750656Wings of fukken' CRYSTAL!
>>28749400its only 17 spells and the possible amount we can learn is 55.
>>28750705No no wings made of metal.
>>28750705this works actually, but would it be metal for us?
>>28750732..Mecha-wings?
>>28750732I gotta admit, that sounds pretty fucking metal.
>>28750601>>28750656Why not an actual earth-trait such as gravity? Basically you levitate or fly by negating your own gravitational pull and propel yourself.
>>28750757FUKKEN' JETS!
Can we multicast?
>>28750705>crystal>not metalwings of blades bitch
>>28750732I imagine him to act like a humanoid Skamory.
>>28750705crystal wings
>>28750778That or we just do it in however the hell Magneto does it.
>>28750601Cost: 6MPElement: earthIncantation:Effect: The user creates ceramic(Or metal in our case) surf board that can be used for flight. Like Zephyr Wing both the top speed and level of fine control are very high, but the learning curve is also very high. This spell was created relatively recently by a mage that wanted a more effective earth type flight spell.>This spell is not widely used because A) it pretty new compared to the others B) you can fall off it and C) The ceramic board is known to crack when preforming more daring aerial maneuvers.>This is were being metal attuned come in handy.
>>28750732Aluminium Hang-Glider
The ones listed are just the ones that have been shown in the story so far.
>>28750732>wings of steel
>>28750705metal wings>>28750799Yeah, but our character never tried.
>>28750757I was thinking more like old timey power armor then mecha. Metal wings stoneskin bam we are ironman.
>>28750846Why don't they all have incantations?
>>28750227>it would be hard to protect the princess in thatIt's a giant shield as tall as us made of stone(possibly metal) that follows your hand, not some stone half bubble you sit inside. It would block a lot more stuff than Holy Shrine ever could.Dudes shooting at you/princess with arrows/crossbows/thrown weapons/some spells? Stone ShellCorridor full of badguys you need out of your way?Tailwind and Stone ShellRaining and you forgot your umbrella?Stone ShellImpromptu sled during winter?Stone ShellTo the first point of maintaining the spell, if we can't even keep up a single spell we might as well not bother with magic at all. TL;DR I think Stone Shell is worth learning.
>>28750833Honestly, I don't think it makes sense for Earth element flight spells to be just as good as the other spells.Earth should have flight spells, but one would expect them to be crummier than those of other elements.
>>28750869The ones listed are just the incantations that have been shown in the story thus far.
>>28750871>It would block a lot more stuff than Holy Shrine ever could.you got me to laugh there.The spell is useful, but honestly it has its disadvantages with sight and getting in the way of our blade, plus we could hurt the princess pretty easily with the spell.
>>28750890Hence why I suggested a Gravity-based spell. Not so much flight as it is some level of Levitation magic through weakening our gravitational pull.
>>28750897You're hiding UNNECESSARY BUT DELICIOUS FLUFF from me.I want it, Arc.
>>28750871>It would block a lot more stuff than Holy Shrine ever could.Really?The spell is good, but right now you are exaggerating what it can do right now.
>>28750833forgot pic
>>28750871From the first time this spell was shown in-story:>"ANYWAYS," she says, smacking Nicolette in the back of the head, "it's kind of dangerous to depend on Earth-based defensive spells like that. They stay even after you release the spell, and if you were using that to defend the Princess just now, she'd have been caught up in the blast.">Suddenly, an image of the Princess pulling herself out of a pile of rubble like you just did floats into your mind.
>>28750871the reason why we choose Holy Shine over Stone shell is because when Stone Shell shatters it causes shrapnel to fly everywhere compared to the dissipation to Holy Shine
>>28750917While I respectfully disagree, the fact that we know Holy Shrine means that I would avoid picking up Stone Shell.Don't need the overlap.
>>28750871Keep in mind that, as Sylvie demonstrated rather forcefully, if something hits it hard enough to shatter it it'll potentially create dangerous stone shrapnel backlash.IIRC that's why we didn't learn it right away in the first place, because we wanted a defensive spell that wouldn't explode and brain the Princess with a rock if hit too hard.
>>28750897can you give us a hint of what it is?(the earth wing spell)
>>28750897is there an incantation that starts:"I am the bone of my sword..."if not, can we make one?
>>28750972Seconding.
>>28750972That's definitely Mantra material, we don't Sword enough for that.
>>28750972i want us to do a gates of Babylon instead, shiro is retarded and Gilgamesh rules.
>>28750972our element is metal, not SWORD
>>28750972Don't get me wrong, I love GARcher, but can we not use Nasu-brand Engrish poetry if we can help it?It sounds really silly and nonsensical when you stop to think about it, even by the standards of magical mumbo-jumbo.
>>28750955Stupid idea but couldn't we make it then shatter it for a kind of impromptu grenade?
>>28750917>>28750943>Holy Shine>Cost: 4MP>Element: Light>Effect: A shield of light appears in front of the user for an instant, dissipating when struck with enough force. Its strength depends on the caster's skill level, ranging from the durability of paper to about as strong as a thick wooden door.>Its strength depends on the caster's skill level, ranging from the durability of paper to about as strong as a thick wooden door.>as strong as a thick wooden door.I would take giant floating hoplon made out of stone(metal?) than a shield as strong as a wooden door any day.Why do you guys think Holy Shrine is so good?
>>28751038Shard BreakerCost: 3MP (base: 4MP)Element: EarthIncantation:Effect: Forms a fist-sized crystal which then shatters, its shards firing at the target. Jewel BreakerCost: 5MP (base: 6MP)Element: EarthIncantation: "Fragile gem, hidden from sight. Let your every facet reflect my will."Effect: Forms a large crystal which then shatters into several smaller fragments. These smaller crystals are freely controllable by the caster, and explode on impact.we already have that
>>28751011why not both?
>>28750972Sanctuary + Spirit Field [Metal] + A LOT of Fragment spellsThere, you have your impromptu Unlimited Blade Works
Jewel Breaker would be bad ass if it turned into a giant cube of metal for us.
>>28751056its for breaking arrows and its a low level protection spell that doesn't shatter into a million pieces
>>28751056Your basing this off of modern doors(which are hollow), doors back then were pretty hard to break and could get pretty thick.
>why don't we learn stone shellwe have a shield spell, and getting more diversity (like healing and flight) is more important than a second shield spell, even if it is better
>>28751056I mixed it up with the other holy spell, but it still hurts the princess if it gets broken.>>28751096How about Gates of Babylon.
>>28751115Arcane shotgun: the first and last word in both riot control and party tricks!
There are going to be rumors about Luciana and Reinhold all over that party now, what with us emerging from her bedroom in the morning just after breakfast. Calling it.
Rolled 14>>28751173Also, Stone Shell fragments if hit hard enough, as slyvie showed.It becomes a stone shotgun against the charge we'r trying to protect.
>>28751156>doors are hollowreally? I've lived in a couple of places where I think I could probably kick through the doors, but only because they're made from like, cheap wooden pulpy shit, not because they're hollow.
>>28751011once we master all of the Fragment spells to the point of mass production and learn of the fire then in mid air we can GATO OF BABYLONG maybe some spell that induces magnetism on a person so that our metal swords would be attracted to the victim
>>28751173>shield spellnot even that its a shield spell for us only, if we get another shield spell i would rather get shade guard and combo it with holy shine.
>>28751192Oh fuck...Gossipy maids are a thing.
Rolled 9>>28751192Our duty to utterly deny and dispel all rumours.It'll harm the Princess' image and standing.
>>28751218Celestino is going to cook our ass like a motherfucker isn't he?amperes ondonosCaptcha pls.
>>28751179Depends if we can get Fragment spells and there's some spell that can thrust multiple objects at one target.Something like a gravity spell or levitation spell?It would start with summoning a shit load of weapons then just throwing them, basically. Not perfect, but close. Sort of like what Shirou did in the Unlimited Blade Works movie, really, it's the same principle.
Rolled 11>>28751245Then we come clean on why we went to check on hr.
"So, uh..." you say as you take a bite of cheese, "you mentioned before that you liked grimoires?""...actually, it was MARIANNE who mentioned that," Luciana sighs. "Please don't mention them to anyone, I'd be in a bit of trouble with Father if he was to find out.""I figured as much," you reply."I've been collecting them ever since Aunt Ariane gave me one of hers when I was seven..." Luciana says with a nostalgic smile. "An entire book filled with the lost knowledge of long-dead mages... I thought to myself that maybe I'd be able to approach Father's or even her level if I studied it enough," she laughs."You seemed plenty strong last night," you say, munching on one of the loaves of bread."Yes, well that was the result of several years of collecting and studying them in secret. I still can't decipher most of what I find, but whatever little information I can find is always useful," she says with a smile."Why, just the other night I managed to get Sylvie to help me decipher one," Luciana says. "As loath as I am to admit it, that's yet another area where she has more talent than I do.">[1/?]
>>28751179>>28750968>>28750955Keep in mind not everyone around is a musclewizard casting fist.If it changes to metal it wouldn't even shatter, at least not until something insane hits it anyways. If something hits hard enough to shatter the metal version we are probably dead without sanctuary anyways.
>>28751245Hopefully nothing serious will come of it. But Luciana did look like she had been crying and we were there. Hopefully mitigated by the fact she got us food.
>>28751203huh i have found it that most breakable doors i find are hollow and i'm basing this off castle wooden doors which were designed to take on attacks.
>>28751245talking to her about people that tried to kidnap her is a reason i think he'll be fine with. though that means she won't be able to keep it a secret
>>28751267It doesn't change to metal.
>>28751192Luciana's the master politician, I'm sure she won't let it get out of hand.All we have to do when confronted with such things is adopt the Kerry™ brand dead stare and avoid fanning the flames.
Rolled 5>>28751267It just needs someone strong.Pretty sure Taka or any of the dragon kids could easily smash something like that.
>>28751264I'm okay with further discussion of magic with Luciana, but I would like to ask her about the party at some point. Especially after last night.
>>28751245I hope some minor drama comes of it. I enjoy such things.
>>28751297
>>28751267>>28751297Only the spells that list their elements as Earth (Metal) actually change, right?
>>28751205>There has to be some sort of sand storm spell. Normal people would use it like a smoke screen. >Metal element turns the sand to metal dust. >Spell that magnetizes enemy>Profit
>>28751267>>28751297The guy at the scroll store even said it was bad for protecting others. It's common knowledge that it sucks for this kind of thing.>>28751350The entire castle staff is terrified of Luci. DOn't think they'd gossip about her.
>>28751384
>>28751372On the pastebin some spells are listed as Metal(Earth) or Ice(Water)."That's because the base types of those spells are subtypes of another element.Basically, I don't have anything specified to change to metal on that list.
Rolled 13>>28751384They dont change to metal.
>>28751443Hes dad used gold dust instead of sand and the guy that had the job before him used iron sand.So you had 2 better people to choose from and you didn't.
>>28751264Girls being insecure means it's time to change the subject!"So, uh..." you begin, "...what's your magical affinity?" you ask. "Mine is metal.""Oh, really!?" Luciana replies, an excited expression on her face. "That's quite rare... you should be proud!""Thanks, I guess," you shrug."But I'm sorry to tell you that mine is actually even rarer than that..." she giggles. "Just as my name would suggest, my affinity is Light, just like Father!""...huh," you reply, impressed. "That's like the rarest one, right?""That honor actually goes to Darkness," Luciana replies.There's one point for Gerhard...>[2/?]
>>28751539>mfw Reinhold is still this savvy despite Anon
>>28751501Isn't that how we found out we had the metal element. Filled the room with metal dust.>use that spell>use magnet spell>we Gaara>>28751443
>>28751539>Darknessand you fat fucks wanted to get light affinity.
>>28751568Anon are not Reinhold. Anon are the horrible advice whispering in his ear.
What's Marianne's affinity? Assuming we actually know it.
>>28751579do yuu know how retarded you sounded?
>>28751589Water.
>>28751589water i believe
>>28751589Water, I think?
>>28751517I don't actually know that much about Naruto I stopped watching it a long time ago.
Rolled 16>>28751579No, that was a test to find our affinity.also:>>28751477
>>28751589If I remember correctly her affinity is Water.There's a strong tendency to Water in Granache's Royal Family.
>>28751589check pastebin
>>28751580I'm happy with metal affinity.It opens up all sorts of cool nicknames for when Reinhold is eventually able to join the high council of badass. Light just gives you a lot of cheese.
>>28751610I do.
>>28751477>Basically, I don't have anything specified to change to metal on that list.didn't you mention stone skin changing to iron skin?
>>28751612That info was revealed a long time ago. Several years, actually.
>>28751629I liked metal from the beginning. It fits much better with a master swordsman than Light or Darkness does.
>>28751581correction, anon is the horrible advice whispering into monquie's ear. he reacts to it concously, Reinhold does so not fully aware of it... yet.
>>28751647>on that list.
>>28751629Assuming we DO get away with the whole 'metal wings' thing.. what if we asked the dragon siblings to teach us stuff like how to create a dragon tail and claws, and then make those metal too. We could be the Iron Drake.
>>28751635Yeah, I just realized that, I'm retarded.
>>28751672I'm pretty sure we aren't going to be able to pick up Dragon magic like that.And a name like the Iron Drake might step on the toes of any already existing Dragons with a metal theme.
>>28751600i wonder if there is a complete opposite of magic, the anti-magic alinement, where spells cast at a person just washes off of him with no effect. sucks if he got hurt, but still.
>>28751629Even better: if we focus on spells that synergize with our swordplay we could eventually be an uber tier swordsman who can pull "you are already dead" bullshit by lightning fast slicing our opponents in half. I would be so happy.
>>28751695>>28751672We could always ask the little brother if can teach us or show us a book.A common thing i keep seeing with the dragon spells it that they are also working on your stamina as well as mana, so its probably better suited for dragons since they have alot of stamina.
>>28751695And thus we receive rivals. Actually, I'm pretty sure the only time a metal type dragon existed was when the steel spirit morphed into the likeness of one?
>>28751752i know he said the claw thing was mantra, and don't you have to be religious for mantra
Rolled 6>>28751741Artic Blade
>>28751774I don't think so, plus it won't hurt to ask.
>>28751774Mantra is more of a mindset behind how you cast spells. Sanctuary for example has a religious mantra so you have to have a religious state of mind to conceptualize the script needed to cast it. We might be able to emulate the claw's mantra in time, but to be honest we would probably be better of focusing on more useful spells that cover our weaknesses at this juncture.
>>28751752I don't think you understand. The Dragon spells are Mantra, Reya said as much. You don't just pick up Mantra spells, in order to interpret them you need to have a specific mode of thought, we aren't a Dragon, we don't have the same mode of thought, we aren't going to use Dragon Mantra spells in any reasonable time frame just like we aren't going to suddenly become a religious zealot.>>28751774Mantra isn't just religious, though that is one variety of Mantra. For example, all the spells Niklaus makes are Mantra because he's kinda crazy.
>>28751741We should work on eventually developing a spell set that perfectly links sword and magic.Think Tome of Battle from 3.5. Iron Heart maneuvers.
>>28751859>kinda crazy.i think he just is autistic.
>>28751884>Being threatened by ninjas>That's an effect>Iron Heart Surge>No more ninjasWe best bodyguard when?
>>28751848Building upon this, Reinhold, whom has never had a particularly strong tie with religion, is incapable of conceptualizing sanctuary. So he has to use scrolls. Whether or not we can emulate the mantra for the claw spell at all is still up for grabs. Might be a dragon thing and impossible, or simply a royal guard learned how to cast the claw spell using this one weird trick! Dragons hate him!
>>28751884sort of like how Sylvie's dad created a fighting style that perfectly linked fist and magic
Rare doesn't necessarily equal powerful in this case, though, right @ magic affinity?
>>28751741I still wanna figure out a way to swing our sword crazy fast. Since our fighting style is already designed to break swords and cleave things, all we really need is to ramp up how fast we do it and then we can pull some Metal Gear Rising shit
>>28751911What if we develop Mantra based on Martial Practices and Philosophies? That may as well be ToB style blade magic.
>>28751933Essentially, yes. And Takamaru has that spell set which uses his katana and magic. I imagine Reinhold would be able to use something similar, but based on his own style rather than whatever whacky iaijutsu thing Takamaru was using.
>>28751947get a second sword and follow in our fathers foot steps.
>>28751887>i think he just is autistic.you anons keep using that word...no, he's not autistic, just a high functioning sociopath most likely.
>>28751884Or artificer style spells. Flaming +3 magic masterwork sword yes please.
>>28751947maybe find a way to synthesize tailwind to our arms
>>28751956The second sword wasn't so he could dual wield, it was a backup for in case he breaks his own sword.
>>28751956Getting a second sword won't make us swing faster. It'll just make us hit twice. Still not enough speed to pull off some crazy badass 'reduce to giblets' slashing.
>>28751884Dude, that would make Sword Throw Attack even better, since it would go in a 60ft line and come back.
>>28751947I think Boost should have that partially covered.3x Speed and Strength
>>28751884I think Reinhold's style would be more suited to Stone Dragon, actually. Or a mix of both.
>>28751985it does increase the rate in which something gets hit.>>28751982he still made it a style of his and we could do the same for us.
>>28751985Nah, I think we'd need magic assistance for that.So let's do it. Blade magic all up in this.
>>28751990No, no, no.HOMING sword throw."For thy heart for thy heart who hast wronged me!" Farslayer!
>>28751974That's what I've been pondering on, yeah. As far as I can tell, Tailwind isn't so much a jet-booster propulsion spell as it is a momentum modifier. So long as the target of the spell is in motion, it will continously gain forward momentum exponentially and at a heightened rate. The moment the target ceases movement, the spell's effect also ceases.If we figured out a way to get Tailwind to apply to our swordarm, or perhaps even our sword itself (maybe an enchantment? We've been told we can ask for such things after all), when activated the sword would essentially swing faster and faster the more we keep swinging it without stopping.
>>28751539With your magic-related questions out of the way, you finally decide to give the food on the table your full attention. After you practically inhale the rest of the loaf of bread that you were munching on, you turn to the Princess."About your brother's party..." you say, popping a piece of cheese in your mouth, "...is there a set schedule of events or anything?" you ask."Umm... not in particular," Luciana replies. "It'll start out with a basic greeting and Father's formal announcement that it's Emilio's birthday, and then it's mostly mingling while other people dance."Great, so there -is- going to be dancing."So there'll be people trying to chat Father up, people playing music to dance to, and others presenting Emilio with his birthday presents pretty much all at the same time," Luciana shrugs. "Oh, but Father -was- planning on doing the big reveal for that painting that was done by your... brother-in-law?""Oh yeah, that," you reply."So that's pretty much it... why, were you expecting something more formal?""Nah," you reply. "Though I suppose I'd be up for a dance if you wanted.""A d-" Luciana stammers, blushing profusely. "O- of course I'd like to dance with you!"Luciana then begins giggling as she glances at your face and then darts her eyes away several times."That's sure to make more than a few attendants quite jealous," she says with a smile. "Perhaps this means I have more of a chance than I thought...""Er, what?" you ask."Nothing," she replies in a singsong manner.>anything else you wanted to talk about before all of the foods are gone?
>>28751989Is there a way to conjure a magical chain that connects to our sword? We could use it kind of like a meteor hammer or chain whip
>>28751974>>28751990We need some type of bullet time spell. It doesn't actually make us faster it changes our perception of time.
>>28752069Are you suggesting...SWORDCHUCKS
>>28752067Its called boost and tailwind is actually a spell that assist the wing spells.
>>28752068*Raises eyebrow*"You seem awfully excited about 'nouthing'."
>>28752068I think that's good.
>>28752068"You might have to wait until after I'm done dancing with my grandma though."
>>28752094Then we still aren't hitting faster - we just are better able to react to OTHER people trying to hit us really fast.
Keep in mind that Reinhold is still a total beginner at magic and wont even be able to imagine half of the stuff that you guys are suggesting, muh less cast it.
>>28752069Read that as >Is there a way to conjure a magical chin that connects to our sword?I would have supported the idea if it was actually a chin.Swordchucks is dumb tho
>>28752118>>28752123these two get my vote.
>>28752118>>28752123i'm a go ahead and second these, as well
>>28752068>That's sure to make more than a few attendants quite jealousMonique is going to have a seizure. I think this might break him. >>28752118>>28752123Voting for either of these.
>>28752068"your mood improved greatly, but that dance might wait since i'm dancing with my gran first."Also who are we meeting after this?
>>28752118>>28752123Seconding these.
>>28752068>"You said you had a bunch of siblings besides Giancarlo and Emilio - what're they like?"Bitches love it when their man takes an interest, and this is a convenient opportunity to learn about it...
>>28752111Problem with Boost is that it wears off fast and then leaves us utterly drained as FUCK afterwards. It's not a useful spell at all unless we're in a one-on-one against a final encounter boss and basically need to pull a last-ditch effort for the fight.What we need is a spell that we can activate without basically making ourselves worthless immediately a few minutes after it wears off.And Tailwind can be used on its own, as has been already proven by us actually using it without the wing spells.
>>>28752068Voting in support of these two:>>28752118>>28752123
>>28752132
>>28752167This. We still don't even know who they are.
>>28752108oh god yes! we must have or make sword chucks!.... wait. the bracelet! maybe it can form a workable set of them?
>>28752159>>28752123The better question is who are we gonna dance with?I suggest all the girls.
>>28752123This seems appropriate
>>28752132What if we get someone else to place a kind of speed-booster or 'Haste' style enchantment on our sword?
>>28752159Adding >>28752167 to the list of stuff I'd like to talk about.
>>28752171>making ourselves worthless immediately a few minutes after it wears off.this is debatable, since the spell is based on stamina and we need to find our limit with that first.
>>28752188isn't it only a little bracelet? i don't think it can get better than a prison shiv
>>28752068Tell her that you taught your bracelet to do tricks.
>>28752191How about whoever actually wants a dance?Nico, for instance. Probably doesn't want to do that at all.
>>28752132Oh yeah, I know. I'm just thinking long-term. It's nice to have plans to work on in case you have another timeskip in mind.That said, is martial magic even a thing or was the stuff Takamaru did entirely based in bullshit level strength and skill?
>>28752191too many rolls in my opinion, but i'm good with it since its in character and it would help move the party along.i bet we will dance with the slut who molested us by mistake.
>>28752132I think we could and should totally adapt tailwind for sword use though. Even if it burns through mana like butter it gives us an advantage. Remind me to ask Sophie about it next time we see her.
>>28752216No, we were pretty much outright told when we purchased and inquired about it that after the spell wears off the user is hit with massive fatigue and will be unable to fight until they've rested.
>>28752191Gramgram of course, Sylvie will probably want to, Nico would explode our brain with a deathglare if we suggested it, Marie might have a Tsunstorm but we'll probably end up having one with her anyway.
>>28752191Whoever asks.
>>28752191I'd agree we should try for all of them, or at least see how far we get before Marianne has a tsun-attack. "Ugh, don't you have a job to do??"
>>28752227well nico is the only one, but i do think its proper to at least offer her one.
>>28752227>nico hates the idea of dancingwhich is why we need to ask her, just to tease her a bit at least. or ask her permission to dance with luci since she is luci's knight and all
>>28752068Another vote for >>28752123Grandma dancing
>>28752240>>28752246>>28752256>>28752252Who would be the worse one to get a nat 1 from?I think its the loli.
>>28752132oh yea, show her the bracelet and what it can do.>>28752146i second as well
>>28752256marie's going to end up going off with her father after a bit so we'll be able to dance after that
>>28752243Effect: For a duration of three minutes, the caster's physical capabilities are increased by three times over, and is rendered immune to fatigue during this duration. However, the instant the spell wears off, the caster is hit with all of the fatigue accumulated during this time.The spell is based on our stamina limit so it is possible to still be normal afterwards.
>>28752287What a strange way to spell "best."
>>28752294Good idea, I like this.
>>28752256Then we reply, "You said I had today off" or maybe "Isn't this what you do at a ball?"
>>28752123this and this>>28752294We taught a bracelet to do tricks. That's something
>>28752308Yeah. If Marie's dancing, we're not. Got to keep an eye out for her. Luckily she doesn't want to dance all that much.
>>28752316you really think its a good idea to have a nat 1 fail in a dance full of nobles and with the loli daughter of the king?
>>28752349Good idea? No. Fun idea? Yes yes yes yes yes
>>28752349Do you really think I was being serious?
>>28752380after the nat 1 from dancing with the princess there were droves of players begging for nat 1s.
>>28752345>If Marie's dancing, we're not.But what if we're dancing with her?
>>28752404Then we need to pray to god we don't get a nat 1. I don't want Rein to die today.
>>28752167voting in support of this one as well
>>28752370Not even fun. Reinhold does not deserve that kind of suffering.
>>28752167Supporting this.
>>28752404That's because we just saved her then.Asking to "cut in" is how you politely tell her partner to fuck off.
>>28749596His feet are a little small dont you think?Also his chin could use a little augmenting
>>28752468i thought we were just going to say her dad wanted to talk with her
>>28752497Can't use the excuse all of the time.
Sometimes I wonder how this quest would have gone if we'd played Reinhold as an antisocial dbag that NEVER talked when given the opportunity prompts.
>>28752497We should think of more than that, though. If her dad is obviously engaged in something, it would be an awkward excuse.Work on our stock of bullshit excuses, /tg/. You're all pathetic slackers and procrastinators, I know you have some!
>>28752511we have been playing like that for the past 20 threads.
>>28750871I really like pic related for Nicolette.>captcha: blush greennin
>>28752524[dramatic gibberish ear-whispering intensifies]
>>28752511/tg/ is generally too white-knight for that. But I'd assume we'd have no/little magic and still be a worm.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1gNCFDSosUI>takamaru.aviHe uses wind magic, right?
>>28752524"Hang on my boss is texting me""My supe said I needed to go handle some stuff in the back""Our merchandiser needs a sales guy"...I don't think any of mine apply here.
>>28752524To be honest, I like the cutting in idea. We should save it for a real asshole who needs to know neither us or the princess want him around.
>>28752171If we use Boost from full reserves, it would leave us as drained as we would've been after 9 minutes of sustained combat which, while not a walk in the park, should be a tolerable amount of fatigue for a trained swordsman.For something time-sensitive, or something where the extra force is going to be more useful to us than longevity, Boost seems incredibly useful.The more important part is that IIRC it takes about a third of our magical reserves to cast, which means we still can't throw it around all the time even if we could mitigate the fatigue aspect. Potential injuries sustained at the end of the 3 minutes might be an issue as well, depending on how exactly the fatigue is fed back to us.I can imagine that against almost any number of unaugmented swordsmen, 3 minutes of Boosted combat is going to allow us to dispatch more of them than 9 minutes of un-Boosted combat.>>28752497If he's at the ball as well, this excuse doesn't work quite so well.It's probably better to just interrupt politely and say that the princess is needed elsewhere, swallow our pride and apologize a bit to play to their ego. If we're viewed as a retainer of hers, no noble is going to try and stop us for more than a minute or so since if it's worth summoning the princess away during a social engagement over, the person doing the summoning is up on the social ladder. There's no need to drop a name at all, and we can just write it off as being discreet if they ask.
>>28752543nah, that's Ariane
>>28752571Gotta be careful with it though. If we snub the wrong person we'll have a whole lot of entitled noble butthurt on our hands.
>>28752571Monique
>>28752524>>28752558"Your father needs to speak to you.""Someone you needed to speak to has just arrived.""Princess, (person we both know, like Nico or Sylvie or something) wanted your opinion on something.">>28752571I would recommend not going with the cutting in excuse, because odds are it'll be some douchebag royal who will say something like "Yes, I do mind. Who are you anyway, you filthy peasant?" and we won't be allowed to do anything without making a scene.
>>28752524>>28752544"luci wants to see you""the other king wants to see you""elena wants to see you""emilio wants to see you""gregory wants to see you"and of course, the ultimate fall back (bonus for causing a massive panic)"i think someone's about to try and murder you"
What does the light elemental spirit thing look like? Angel or something?
>>28752599>"gregory wants to see you"That'll scare most of them off.
>>28752597And if Marie let's us cut in than it'll be fucking perfect.
>>28752599>"i think someone's about to try and murder you"You know that's going to bring us serious trouble if we ruin the party that way, right?
>>28752604Er, what?
>>28752549No, we'd be Squall.
>>28752599>"gregory wants to see you"that'd do it>>28752604hasn't been said, and since the fire bros and steel dragon can change form it might not have a set one either
>>28752597"her bodyguard, reinhold volker, my lord. I'm afraid something's come up"it's common knowledge that we won that competition to get this role and if we drop a family name in there, they'll think twice about starting shit
>>28752631Well, the Steel Dragon looks like a dragon I assume. What about the Light elemental?
>>28752651I thought Volker was his first name, and his family name was Echaklsfdhfdslkasdfh or whatever.
>>28752651Eschenwald. Volker was the first name.
>>28752604>>28752631I think he's asking what a Light-affiliated Spirit Field looks like
>>28752676oh, shityeah my bad
>>28752651>I'm afraid something's come upthat won't work if we're trying to cut in on a dance, and volker was the guy's first name, not his last, and we don't have a last name
>>28752651It'd be Reinhold Eschenwald, Volker was his first name, and I don't think we'd start namedropping that on people.
>>28752679>>28752651>>28752676its not common knowledge about volker and we aren't family officially.
Stop fantasizing about "saving" the princess during the ball. If she wants our help, she'll ask. Better to just keep quiet and avoid trouble. At this rate we're going to white knight our way into an international incident.
>>28752716we just wait for the ear tug
>>28752716aww c'mon, international incidents are great fun
>>28752716We're talking about because we specifically set up a way for her too ask and we know the nobles here are ass-groping jerks.
>>28752597It's considered very rude for the man to disagree - the partner being cut in on (in this case, Marie) is expected to answer.
>>28752746>ass-groping jerksoh jeez, i just realisedif any of them get gropey this could go bad really fucking fast
>>28752716It isn't a bad idea to have some prepared excuses just in case she does give us the signal.
>>28752631I think he meant light elementals, plural. Like, do they have a corporal form or something.>>28752604I'm thinking something like this.
>>28752761>hey there handsome>PTSD_intensifies.gif
>>28752761It shouldn't be TOO bad, she is a Princess.But then again there's always THAT GUY. We should be prepared to bitchslap a dude.
>>28752651That's *not* our last name though, furthermore, using a last name that's not ours is extremely fucking rude.Unless we were officially adopted and I didn't see it
>>28752761Marie's reaction was more because it happened JUST as she was warming up to and starting to trust as our friend. She'll still get worked up probably but not at that level.
>>28752716Better to have a few plausible plans in mind beforehand rather than trying to come up with something on the spot and flubbing it.>>28752761I would really like to think that they'd have the presence of mind not to actually grope the Princess of the neighboring country.
>>28752782no, I mean marie. remember what happened when she thought rein tried to grope her? she nearly fucking killed him. I suppose it's unlikely that anyone is brave enough to grope a princess, but if they do, my prediction is it will get messy.
>>28752789Grandma Eschenwald said she viewed us as her grandkids.
>>28752772I figured they would be like FF.
>>28752761Don't worry we know how to handle that.
>>28752805But that does not make us her grandkid, we are not actually her grandkid. There's a very large difference.
>>28752805Still not official.
>>28752761She already told us that she is used to it and at least we weren't doing it on purpose.The reason she reacted like she did was because she was starting to trust us.
>>28752790Yeah. Ironically, the situation was worsened because both Marie and Reinhold were starting to get comfortable with the other.Real tragedy, or something.
>>28752805There is an important difference between "like family" and "family."I basically lived at a friend's house during my high school years. His parents even refer to me as "son" when in private, and I've occasionally caught myself calling them mom/dad.But I would never introduce myself with their last name.
Can we go find Citrine and Marcus after this? I'd like to get to know our brother-in-law some more before the party.
>>28752825It pretty disgusting that she's "used to" being groped.
>>28752844Two buddies of mine had a similar arrangement. His parents' were in Korea at the time, but we were already juniors in high school at that point, so my other buddy's parents were like fuck it.Then they built a bunk bed. Fucking awesome.To bring it back on point, he might consider them like surrogate parents, but he's still very much his own man...and own family.
>>28752855she is,but from what i can remember it usually only Lucuainas brother that has the balls to do it. There are a few other people who could get away with it.
>>28752855>not being used to casual gropingWhat's it like being fat and/or ugly?
>>28752855It ain't easy being an attractive princess in fantasy medieval times.Even if she's got an ice hose.
>>28752631Hay Arch, do you have Squatches in your setting?
>>28752855Pretty standard in the era, it's not exactly something that's looked well upon but pretty disgusting is a bit over the top.
>>28752891>>28752898I mean it makes her disgust as a waifu option. She's been overly soiled by the hands of others.This is a shitpost and not serious misogyny, calm your tits. Arc plz post soon.
>>28752898And yet, you're applying modern "standards" to a medieval society.
>>28752844there's a difference between you being close to a friend's family, and and being an orphan having adoption lined up only for your surrogate father to die. it seemed pretty concrete that she was taking them in as kids when she told them to call her grandma. At least, I considered it adoption, and rein has been talking about it as if she's properly adopted him to people, he doesn't say 'Volkers' grandma", he introduces her as his.It's probably not worth arguing about, it's just not as awful as you're saying it is to use it to prevent some noble from trying to have us arrested.

"You seem awfully excited about 'nothing'..." you say, raising an eyebrow."You've just given a lovestruck maiden a bit of hope, that's all," Luciana says to you with a playful smile. "But more seriously, I really would prefer dancing with you over some of the people that I know are going to be there," she sighs."That bad, huh?""As you know, I'm of marriageable age," she says, pointing in the air for emphasis. "As such, there are lots and lots and LOTS of worthless men who would love nothing more than to get in my good graces... and for some reason, they think that forcing me into a dance will achieve this goal.""...yeah, that sounds pretty stupid," you reply."Unfortunately, people like that don't understand common sense," Luciana says, frowning. "But if they were to see me dancing with a strong handsome fellow like you, perhaps at least some of them will give up!""That might have to wait until after I'm done dancing with my grandmother, though," you say."Oh, she's going to be at the party?" Luciana replies with a look of surprise."That's what she said, anyways.""Agnes Eschenwald, right?""Yeah.">[1/?]
>>28752967Because *you* consider it adoption doesn't make it *actual* adoption.
>>28752978wait. Anon, are you implying you KNOW what the fuck those things are or are from?I beg of you, enlighten me
>>28752967But, it fucking is.this is people who are worse then monique and you expect them to ignore technicalities.
>>28752967We're in Marconetti. The Eschenwald family is from Marconetti.If they had formally adopted anyone, the Marconetti nobles at the Marconetti ball would know.

Didn't archelon say he hated Chinhold?

>>28753211Well enjoy the art, because it's only going to get creepier.
Princess Guard Quest seems a little slow today.Not arch's posts, but the thread in general.
>>28753245Probably because Janitor-sama banned all the shitposters last thread.
Rolled 93, 93 = 186>>28753245it because people aren't bitching or fighting and there is a janitor that does a scorch earth method recently.
>>28753189how's this?

>>28753245It's a good thing.

>>28752999>[2/2]"Wow... she usually has zero interest in things like this," Luciana says, brushing some strands of hair behind her ear."Really?" you ask."Yes, I've actually only met her maybe once or twice. She had a few... disagreements with the popular views of what a lady is allowed to do, and she pretty much stopped interacting with them at all after..." she sighs. "...after her grandson died.""...oh," you say, frowning."I'm sure that Elena would have loved to meet Agnes back in her prime, though," Luciana laughs. "She was pretty much exactly what Elena dreams of becoming- a female swordmaster."Well, she did say that she raised Volker by herself..."I'm not sure your father would be too happy about that," you laugh."Oh, he'd probably be livid," Luciana replies as she takes a bite of bread. "But she's slowed down with age...""Yeah, she was walking with a cane when I saw her."The two of you then finish off the rest of your food, leaving nothing left aside from crumbs."Thanks for checking up on me, Reinhold," Luciana says, smiling at you. "I was really worried before, but I suppose that wasn't necessary."She then stands up from her chair and stretches her arms."There's still a few hours left before the party, so I was thinking about taking a quick nap until I need to get ready," Luciana yawns. "I really didn't get very much rest last night, you see," she says with a weak smile. "Although I wouldn't mind at all if you stayed in here with me until the ball, that wouldn't exactly be proper...">anything to say to her before she kicks you out?

>>28753294how's thisfeet are hard
>>28753285ask her what her favorite dance is- we probably don't know it, but mebbe we can try and learn a few of the basic steps
>>28753369That doesn't mean we can't use a refresher.
>>28753369etiquette was the super old butler
>>28753394I'd be cool with Melanie. She needs screentime.
>>28753401This and the rein2 are goodmy apologies I didnt know feet were hard

Rolled 57, 63 = 120>>28753409gregory was the one who taught us that the butler is teaching us swords.
>>28753457melon is easier to rememberI think I might actually have it now.
>>28753388this could work. A little cheeky but not overly so.
>>28753441Oh god, hands suck so much. There's two great pieces of advice that people have given me though.1 - Fingertips are just ovals, and you can make a finger p easily by connecting a fingertip to the knuckle.2 - The thumb is the same length as your nose.
>>28753493It was the other butler. Gregory teaches politics/history.
>>28753394Maid time
>>28753493gregory was politics, etiquette was a super old and unnamed butler, not arnaud or the ninja librarian
>>28752772All elemental spirits can shift between being a pure collection of whatever their elemental is and a physical body, along with being able to mimic any form of biological life.Regarding those physical forms, each element has some set physical characteristics that all spirits of their type share- the main one for Earth and Metal spirits being that they are freely able to decide their own shapes, unlike other elements.>writing
>>28753388this
>>28753506>>28753510Then why are we getting a refresher from him since other than etiquette we also had him teach us politics for a month.
>>28753493There are two butlers one has OCD(and teachs eitiquit) and the other is arnard(sword guy)
>>28753459Putting chins aside for a bit, who else is pissed that it will be atleast 5 more years before they get off the boat?
>>28753523since even though he's a politics teacher he still probably knows etiquette better than us
>>28753548i cry when another idol master game gets announced.
>>28753561Hes supposed to be writing a whole new series in this hiatus from berserkI mean hes still got 10 or 20 years of paper pushing left in him but still
>>28753561THERE JUST WASover a month ago, but i an anxiously waiting for glorious new information
>>28753574the japanese cold is deadly anon.
MS PAINT DRAWING ROUND 2 ELECTRIC BOOGALOOok so nico is described as a guard when we first meet her so I figured she'd probably wear a generic guard uniform but I couldn't decide on anything so I just made both
>>28753592Blue probably works better. Granache is water country so I'd expect it to be a dominant color.
>>28753592Isn't that a bit short for a 2 handed spear?
>>28753592That face looks pretty man-ish. Kind of too boxy in shape.
>>28753583welp no berserk for this year and maybe the next then.>>28753583so what do you even do in the games?
>>28753574Why does he hate berserk so much? It is popular, if he drew it regularly it would be even more popular, how the hell does he justify putting it on hiatus and drawing some other manga which may or may not get enough readers? Only reason i can think is that he hates berserk and doesn't want it anymore but doesn't want to drop it because of fans.
>>28753592thank you base draw anon!
>>28753498>The thumb is the same length as your nose.... Mine isn't.
>>28753605what about the arms/belt/chestplate?>>28753615yeah, I can see that. faces are also hard. shit, pretty much everything is hard.
>>28753592>>28753459I like them both, gj Have some art by this guy
>>28753622he has been doing berserk nearly his whole life. even still, if he returned to it right now, at his rate, he'll die an old man before finishing it. damn shame....i hope archelon's quest won't take as long to complete.
>>28753592Sorry to nit pick, but the black eye line coupled with white eyebrow looks kinda weird. Also, your faces feel kind of flat. But otherwise pretty gud.
>>28753592You're making me want to do art again, anon.I already spend more of my time than I should on cartography and writing, don't make me add art to it. My grades won't survive it.
>>28753622I remember reading somewhere that writing berserk gets him depressed or something, personally i think hes just gone soft after getting married and kids as well I think
>>28753637Not sure how helpful this is and I kind of don't like the drawing itself too much but there might be some useful advice here.
>>28753622Because its "art is suffering:the manga", and he's super OCD about quality and detail. He burns through assistants like that was the part he got paid for.
>>28753660Feel free to nitpick, never gonna improve unless people tell me what I'm fucking up. Do you have any suggestions as to how to fix it?>>28753668do it
>>28753650Arch does more than 4 threads a year, so i think we'll be fine.
>>28753622Once he figures out how to incorporate horrible amounts of monstrous rape, torture and murder to the elfhelm, he will be on that shit like Roxxo on cocaine.

>>28753736I can dig it
>>28753736You're forgetting pure awesome from Gregory and Aquaman.
>>28753763People ignore Reinhold's spaghetti, it's only polite to pay it forward.
>>28753763We can ask Marie about it.
>>28753763Probably not, we may bring it up with Marianne later...we should be straightforward with Luci as we have been with Sylvie...we aren't looking for a relationship right now; we aren't in a place where we are comfortable with something like that. We're not a quivering mass of PTSD, we can acknowledge what our current needs include and don't include.
>>28753763It's pretty straightforward. There is nothing to do or say about it.
>>28753784>>28753806I can get behind that.
>>28753763you forgot>Profit
>>28753704Uhh... For the eyes I'd say use a lighter color for the line, or remove it and use the yeybrow to imply the line, if that doesn't make it look funny. For giving the face depth, try adding high- åńd low-lights to denote facial structure. Can't really say though, because I have shit anatomical basic mechanics, I'm only good at refinement and fine polishing.
>>28753784"Princess, Luciana made passing mention earlier today about how you told her not to come on too strongly with me." pause, "Thank you for your concern with my well being. I had a chat with her similar to one I recently had with Sylvie on the matter" "Though seriously, thank you,"

Rolled 10>>28753894what
>>28753908Only mildly? Because it seems you forgot your name, wrenloft. I deserve to be shamed for that joke
"Heh, I guess," you say with a nervous laugh. "See you at the party.""I'll be looking forward to it!" Luciana says as she runs up to you... and stops herself before she wraps her arms around you. "Sorry, I forgot what Marianne said..." she says, blushing."Eh, I'm fine with a hug from a friend," you shrug."Oh?" Luciana says, a wide smile on her face. "In that case..."Before you can say another word, the red-haired princess pulls you into s tight embrace."You have no idea how relieved I am that you're not afraid of me or disgusted about how I handled myself last night..." Luciana says as she rests her head against your chest.After she finally lets you go, you head for the door... but you're stopped by Luciana tugging on your arm.[1/2]
>>28753894Shit, I think I would start drinking from the bottle at that point.
>>28753894The man has a point, he had to one tough little fish to be able to make the journey from her ass to her womb.
>>28753894
>>28753948go on...
is this an improvement?I don't want to turn this into an art critique thread, honest, I'm just trying to contribute
>>28754008Dont worry about it anon, im not even that bothered by the feetIt looks good
>>28753948HNNNGHHHI remember when luciana wasn't best girl
>>28754050I don't. Even before we had a red head in the quest, I knew the red head was the best girl.
>>28753948Whats the name of that bandit meanie nation, and would Killship be an option if we moved there?
>>28754050Eh, as far as I'm concerned she's just managed to earn sympathy points like Marie did. Definitely ranked up, though.The players of this quest seem to have a thing for crying princesses.
>>28754008Yes, those eyes look far less obtuse
>>28754008She's a captain and doesn't give a fuck. I think you might want to feminine-ize her clothing a little more, and add some more gold/embellishments to it.
>>28754008my main gripe about it is that it doesn't look very feminine
>>28753948>After she finally lets you go, you head for the door... but you're stopped by Luciana tugging on your arm.Oh boy here we go.
>>28754123Yeah, the whole build and face are too boxy.
>>28754008No breastplate = needs more curvyWith breastplate = looks goodAlso I imagined the spear to look more... ceremonial?
>>28754121>>28754123Because Nico just screams veins de milo.
>>28754008don't forget magic necklace for spamming fragment spear
>>28754050she isn't best girl yet- everyone else still has a shot. She's pretty close to pulling ahead though, mainly because she's been shown to have a lot of depth already
I vote for look for either nico or sylvie.
>>28754154Nico confirmed for Girl version of Lu Bu
>>28754182No the real deal is that people stopped trying to destroy routes and let go with the flow.

>>28753948>[2/2]"By the way..." the princess says, a sly smile on her face, "...don't think that I hadn't noticed that you've stopped using my title when referring to me, -Mister- Reinhold.""Er- sorry," you stammer. "If I offended you or anything-""Oh no, I have no problem whatsoever with that," she says with a chuckle. "I just thought that I ought to warn you against doing so when we're at the party, that's all.""While noone who works in the castle would dare to even consider spreading any rumors about me, I can't say the same about the nobility here," Luciana sighs. "And I'd much rather not get you in trouble with anyone.""...yeah. Thanks for the heads-up, Princess," you reply."Aww, I just said that I don't mind you calling me by name when we're alone~" she says in a singsong manner."...but that's enough messing with you for now, I'm honestly rather tired and I should get some more sleep so I don't end up passing out during the party," Luciana says, yawning. "See you later, Reinhold."Yeah, see you later," you say. "And thanks for the food," you wave goodbye as you exit her room.>go and bother Sylvie>go and bother Nicolette>go and bother Melanie>go and bother someone else>[OTHER]

>>28754211"I am sorry" she says. You feel a sharp pain in your throat, you want to shout "WHAT?" but only thing you hear is gurgling sounds. Your vision begans to blur, last thing you see is Lucianna with tears in her eyes, last thing you see before everything goes black.
>>28754220>go and bother MelanieWe haven't talked to her since we got here. Everyone else got time with Reinhold on this trip.

>>28754993where the fuck is the nico vote?
>>28755091Nico was eliminated in round 1. Keep up pleb
Unless Arch has some reason that THERE CAN BE ONLY ONE (which he may very well have, we don't know what he's got in mind here), I'd be fine with the happy "coincidence" of us bumping in to both of them at their room. And I say this as someone who voted for Melon even though it looks like she's winning.

>>28755162Well, I mean from a technical point of view not voting or voting for a third party is basically just a vote for the winner.
>>28755170She's always been my second, I'd have gone with her despite whoever else was up.

>>28755164Hell yeah motherfucker.

>>28755188Arch. Do your damn best with this because this may be your one chance to keep her seen.
>>28755164I'm guessing that this means that we have a plurality of Sylviefags, but a majority of anti-Sylviefags, since meido never gets this much attention. Perhaps we also have people who don't give a fuck and want some variety. NAAAAAAAH
>>28755207you know we are hooking her up with mage bro right?>>28755209nico and sylvie fags were usually friendly since their girls were best friend, hell mage said she would step down if nico went after Reinhold.
>>28755226All of the above!
>>28755226This vote didn't really effect me in the slightest, so I just voted meido because we've already seen Sylvie this trip. Marianne still best girl
>>28755188YAMI WO KIRISAKU
>>28755228I don't give a fuck about waifuing her. I just want her to have some damn screentime in the story. She's a friend, I don't want her ignored becuase people keep shooting for their waifus.
>>28755252I always vote to ignore meido because she's boring every time she wasn't ignored.Her interlude was only interesting because it had Elena and her bodyguard.
>>28755226>meido never gets this much attentionthat's exactly why i voted for her
Archelon how does an Elemental compare to a Dragon, powerlevel wise?
>>28755273They're more powerful than the vast majority of dragons, but the oldest dragons, thousand year plus, outmatch elementals.
>>28755267She's less boring then Sylvie. Also, she's always just a tag along. We've never one-on-oned with her.
>>28755273Big fire elemental guy from the book was estimated at around an 800-year dragon at his height. So they seem to be a little weaker than dragons, but they have a longer lifespan.
The best ship is friendship.

>>28755345I don't know what that's from, but white one best. The rest can go.

Personally, I give no fucks about waifus since there's no femdom-waifu option
>>28755345
So how do we convince Luci to convince her dad for Elena to be sent to Granache, for education of course. So that she can be our little sister
>>28755361Luci used to be that waifu anonand still could be in time

>>28755370We can't, however we could talk to Marie about it and convince her to convince him.That said, no way he's going to send his last bargaining chip off to the kingdom of adventurers and cool people.

>>28755399We likely have yet to meet her. For all we know it could be Spinelle.
>>28755416Oh hey what's with that imageHHRRRRRRKKKKK
Guys, what if Guts (Pre-Eclipse, maybe only just after joining the Band) replaced Reinhold in the beginning?

>>28755445Archelon couldn't give us the suffering needed for the rage.
>>28755445rape
>>28755445So would Reinhold take Guts' place?
>>28755416I feel relaxed already.
>>28755468Yeah.
>>28755445Mel would be raped and killed first day. Nico would be slaughtered along with her family and Gregory would be rampaging around. Syl would be troubled psycho mage. Marie would be raped on a daily basis by her dad while Reinhold is on duty in front of the door to make sure noone disturbs them. Reinhold would kill the king after a few weeks, Marie would thank him and commit suicide with tears in her eyes. Reinhold would be held responsible for murders of king and princess and would be on the run.
>>28755468I think seeing Reinhold after surviving Berserk would be at least as interesting as seeing Guts in Reinhold's shoes.
>>28755468lawdy that would be something
>>28755490stop pls I can't handle it.
>>28755468Heh.
>>28755494why are you posting that horrible thing?
>>28755445He would hate being touched, be a lot more gloomy, and try to choke the first woman he fucks before breaking down and reveal his past.
>>28755490Guts appearing in PGQworld doesn't mean it automatically goes to hell
>>28755512So, pretty much the same? Seems legit.
>>28755490like i said archelon doesn't have the heart to make the player suffer.yet
>>28755535He seemed to enjoy our suffering post nat 1 dancing... Soon, the Reign of Blood begins
>>28755519You think that's going to hell? That's just a side story with some fun moments.
>>28755509I have a fetish for making things dirtyheh
>>28755519no, but seeing griffon does.
>>28755445That sneak-thief we caught during our first trip to town with Marie because he was making sudden movements in her general vicinity?Bisected. Slice, bam, entrails everywhere.
>>28755547To be honest, the nat 1 was maybe the best thing in the quest. While more nat 1s would be bad, the whole thread and the three threads afterwards were amazing and my favorites thus far.It has an 81 on suptg too.
What to do now... it's only 8:30, so you have plenty of time to waste before you need to head back to your room. While you could go and bother Sylvie, you remember that you actually haven't seen much of Melanie since you got here.Yeah, that's an idea. As you head down the hall to the suite that Melanie and Sylvie are sharing, you see... Melanie approaching?"Ah... good morning Mr. Reinhold," Melanie says with a deep bow. "If you wanted to see Miss Sylvie about something, she's actually in the library...">greet the meido!
>>28755563I agree, we need to face more adversity like that.
>>28755547no, in my opinion he should have gone all the way and actually have our rank lowered, but all he did was give the players a slap on the wrist. which caused a few to beg for more nat 1s after that incedent.
>>28755569>Thank you, I"ll be on my way then
>>28755547But The Reign of Blood is a good thing, right?
>>28755569"I was looking for you, actually. Have a good trip so far?"
>>28755569"Actually, I was hoping you and I could hang out. I haven't really seen you since we got here."
>>28755569"I realized i haven't spend any time with my favorite maid friend since we came here. How are you?"
>>28755569I'll go to the library immediately then, thank you.
>>28755569No actuallyI wanted you
>>28755569"i was actually coming to see you."
>>28755569"I love you"
>>28755563I'm saving my other ones for a rainy day.
>>28755569"Ah, no, I haven't seen much of you since we got here, so I was wondering how you have been getting along."
>>28755590This.We should ask how her trip has been and what's she has been doing besides being a meido.
>>28755569"I was actually looking for you. I don't think I've seen you since we got here. Want to do something before the party?"
>>28755600go with this
>>28755590This
>>28755569"You've swept your way into my heart and wiped away the fear of closeness."
>>28755569Pin her to the wall and whisper in her ear a greeting of your choice.
>>28755569>>28755596yeah, this sounds good. she'll probably get emberassed instead of realizing she is our ONLY maid friend but lets go with this.
treads is autosaging
>>28755600>>28755616
>>28755590>>28755610These.
>>28755600>>28755616archelon will soon relent.
>>28755569nah you'll doJust looking for a quick on in the fanny innit
>>28755590>>28755606These.
>>28755590>>28755596Something along these lines, yeah.
>>28755596Might as well.
>>28755569>greet the meido!No.
>>28755590This.
>>28755580didn't we score a nat 20 immediately after that nat 1 thoughalso this>>28755590
>>28755621Really? We haven't realized. Thanks for letting us know anon. You are a real lifesaver!NOT!
>>28755610>>28755590Dese niggas have the right idea.
>>28755569"Roses are red, violets are blue, meidos my favorite, I came for you
>>28755569"You're my friend too. Yeah. Heh. Hi."
>>28755590this works>>28755596vetoing this one since we agreed not to go after her since crazy mage likes her.
>>28755646I'd go gay for bishi Sauron.
>>28755569"I the two of you aren't busy, maybe I could join you?"
>>28755638And then another nat 1.
>>28755616Ha ha it's funny because she cleans up messes as an occupation.
>>28755638did we?
>>28755652She doesn't like him. Don't decide things for her.Also, it's a damn joke not a romantic confession.
>>28755664For how hard we cried.
>>28755652>Calling her a friend is going after her>Not realizing she is our only maid frined.Waifuing has taken over all of your brain functions anon.
>>28755653right?
>>28755664For the intensity of crying, yes.
>>28755673We rolled both a nat 20 and nat 1 for that.
>>28755673>>28755681ah ok yeah i forgot that was a real roll.I wonder what would have happened if the water works didn't come.
Rolled 10, 15 = 25>>28755687So rolling for crying and how hard.
>>28755687Oh yeah that's right, it wasn't just a crit it was some kind of hyper-charged critstorm.
>>28755680mmmmm delicious femron
>I didnt want to see Sylvie, I wanted to see you>Sylvie overhears it>We've been avoiding her since the confession
>>28755718How would Sylvie overhear Reinhold from the library
>>28755730If she was coming back.
Rolled 9, 18 = 27So who are we seeing after maid?Should we ask maid if she minds if we ask her to dance later?
>>28755711>femI have some bad news, Anon...
>>28755730She bugged everyone so she can eavesdrop whenever Reinhold gets mentioned.
>>28755738NicoPlease, guys?
why do i have a feeling that sylvie sisters are like this character.
>>28755738We dance with all the girls that want to, anon.It would probably be a good idea to ask her though. She's just a commoner and the nobles here are jerks so she may not get anyone to dance with.
>>28755730Wizard ears.>>28755738I'm not sure if meidos are allowed to dance at the fancypants party.
>>28755755Her left hair is a mop. Why.
>>28755738I'd like to get to know our brother-in-law.
>>28755768>>28755763True, she would probably say yes then.>>28755785>brother-in-law.What?
>>28755797Marcus. Citrine's husband. Who we have barely talked to beyond an introduction.
>>28755797Citrine's husband (whose name I forget).
>>28755807I figured he was hanging out with the king.
>>28755797>>28755810Marcel?
>>28755819Marcel is Monique's brother who's here with Matthias.Marcus hooked up with Citrine.
>>28755810>>28755807I thought he would be trying to set up his piece of art right now.
>>28755819>>28755826For a moment, my mind though we were talking about the monkey from Friends.
Hey guys. You know who we should meet up with next?The Kings or Gregory
>>28755816He was busy yesterday with that. We should see if he has free-time along with Citrine since we don't know how much time we'll get to talk at the party.
>>28755840One does not just pop in on the King.
>>28755831I think that's what he was doing yesterday. Since him and Citrine were busy all that day.
>>28755773the thing you complain about from seikon no qwaser is the hair?>>28755768>I'm not sure if meidos are allowed to dance at the fancypants party.if they're asked i think it's okay, though people may look down on someone willing to dance with a lowly maid we don't give a shit
>>28755840Yes. We're next.
>>28755857>if they're asked i think it's okayAh, that makes sense.
>>28755857No. Not really. Medios do meido things during parties. If we want, we can pull her outside into the garden where no one else is and dance with her while music is playing in the background, but that is a SERIOUS flag.
>>28755878She isn't here as a maid. She's here as a guest.
>>28755878>SERIOUS flag.if that gets though, then the other girls better have a similar situation.
She will not be a maid during the party. She will not be on duty. She can dance, eat or pretty much do anything she wants as long as she doesnt cause any problems for anyone.
>>28755878She's here off-duty though.
>>28755878>that is a SERIOUS flag.who cares? i'm not in favor of the maid winning but it seems the nice thing to do and completely in character. we don't give a shit about rank and she's nicer than 90% of everyone else at the party, and we can't let all our dancing lessons go to waste
>>28755894Well, in that case, dance away.
>>28755887Actually, that would be wrong.Shes here as the personal maid of a guest.
>1000+Glorious.
We can dance with her in the ball room, there is no need to take her out to garden for dancing.
>>28755905She is off-duty.
>>28755878>Caring about flagsWe'll do it because we're a nice guy, not because flags.
>>28755906this is pretty common since thread 60,
>>28755917Yeah but this thread wasn't almost entirely shitposting
>>28755905We are here as the personal bodyguard of a guest. That doesnt mean we are not a guest. It doesnt mean we cant dance in the ballroom. Its the same with her.
>>28755926no this time it's like half voting
>>28755910This, we're supposed to be watching out for Marianne anyway, especially after last night. Cakes and plot armour are making us grow increasingly complacent.
>>28755935There is a difference, we are here in a dual role, as the bodyguard of Marianne and the friend of Lucianna. That means the friend invitation takes precedence for this event. Should we be escorting Marianne to another event where we are not known, things would likely be different.Also imagine what a stink the nobles would make at a maid dancing with them. Even at that, I'd want to spare her such troublesome individuals.
>>28755951My personal stance is that if Marie is dancing, we keep an eye on her. If she's not, we can dance with someone or even her.
>>28755959And if her "friends" don't dance?
"Actually, I was hoping that you and I could hang out," you reply. I haven't really seen much of you since we got here.""...huh?" Melanie stares at you. "You wanted to hang out with... me?""That was the plan, but I can understand if you're too busy or something..." you shrug."N- no, I actually just got done with helping Miss Nicolette with her hair, and the only other thing I need to do before the party begins is make sure that everything is fine with the dress that I'll be wearing there..." she says, fidgeting. "But, umm... if you want, you can come in while I get things ready?""Fine with me," you reply.Still a bit nervous, Melanie opens the door to the suite that she's sharing with Sylvie and steps aside to let you in before following behind you.You see that there are a few books lying on the couch of the living room area of this suite, and the table is covered with... brushes and combs?"Ah- sorry about the mess!" Melanie says, blushing. "Miss Nicolette's hair is so long, and I was trying to figure out the right brush to use in order to get her hair right since she actually doesn't have it in a ponytail today...">ask her about something?
>>28755951marrianne is going to end up going off with her father, giving us free time to dance
>>28755971If she don't dance then she ain't no friend of mine.
>>28755980You all known Rein wants it
>>28755980"So what dress are you wearing to the party?"
>>28755980Ask about dancing with her at the party.
>>28755980"Do Dragons/Lamas require combing?"I don't remember what her parents have.
>>28755980Offer to help her with her hair.
>>28756005>>28755996>>28755980these two work since we really don't have anything to talk about and she seems like she will need to change soon.
>>28756005Nah, we wait for the dance to pop it on her. Then we get flustered meido, which is best meido.
>>28755980so just what does that dress of yours look like?somehow work in a dance request since she's nicer then all the stuck up nobles there
>>28755980"What do you do when you're not being boring?"
>>28755980Chuckle, say something along the lines of "So helpful, even to people who aren't your employers."Lead into conversation about herI may be a nicofag, but I'm a team player, goddamnit
>>28756014Seconding. Maybe ask a bit about her.
>>28756014Yeah, going with this along with asking more about her.
>>28756014this works with me
>>28755996>>28756005>>28756027>>28756028These. Talk a bit about her and her family along with the dance stuff.
>>28756046>Talk a bit about her and her familywe already did.
Can we get a new thread soon? We're over 1000 posts and it's getting slow to load.
>>28756027>>28756028>>28756034These.
>>28755980"If any of the nobles are bothering you at the party, know that I'm here for you."
>>28755980"I can imagine how much of a pain it must have been by the mess. How've you been enjoying your holiday so far?"
>>28756053are you browsing without an extension? You should really look into getting one anon
>>28756053this thread still has 2 or 3 hours left and arch usually finishes around 6.
>>28755980"My hand is all sore from yesterday...perhaps you could give me a ...Hand Massage
>>28756053There probably won't be a new thread until we're close to being bumped off, and we're only on page 8 right now.>>28756014>>28756034These.
>>28756071No, ask her to brush Rein's hair.
>>28756052No we didn't. She mentioned her parents run a monster farm once and we heard a bit about her past in the interlude. It would be nice to know in-character how she ended up her and became Marianne's friend.Actually, that's a good question to ask. How she and Marianne became friends. Judging by how it went for us, I can't think it was that easy of a task.
>>28756082How about "I can't even remember the last time my hair had a proper brush, would you mind?"
>>28756065This as an opener. Definitely.
>>28756066I have an extension. It's still slow.
>>28756082Would Reinhold make a convincing trap?>>28756087she was there before the incident happened and is a girl.
>>28756082We should give her the brush.
>>28756065This.
>>28756101oy vey. Welp. This thread is massive
>>28756082We could do her hair, considering where we grew up we actually might be well acquainted with hair care and makeup.
>>28756087monster rancher to royal maid would be an interesting story to hear
>>28756120night
>>28756120I agree, this was definitely a thread.
>>28756120
>>28756110why does she make those noises anon?-Reinhold
>>28756120This thread certainly was pretty thread.
>>28756120You are the extinct giant turtle /tg/ deserves, Archelon.
>>28756120Yeah well you're pretty thread too Arch.
>>28756120Night arch, thanks for the thread.
I have class in the morning, so I'm going to have to call it a night here.Today's thread was pretty fun, and I really appreciate that you guys were able to stay pretty civil.Next thread will be tomorrow night, and thanks for playing!
rip arch post
>>28756110>GJ-buMy nigga>>28756120Night arch.
He left because he doesn't have anything to write for the boring meido.
y'all makin my ocd flare up
>>28756120You're pretty thread yourself!
>>28756152>>28756164
>>28755957Who said anything about her dancing with some random noble? She wont be going around asking for dances anyways. She can dance with us, or anyone else if they ask her to dance and she wants to dance with them.
>>28756125>yfw Melanie si the most awesome character of the lot, complete with picaresque backstory and hidden powers>yfw she was the Chosen One all alongOn topic: PGQ is adapted into a Disney Princess movie. Who gets to be made into the annoying comic relief character?
>>28756152Yeah, today's fun was pretty thread.
>>28756152Goodnight! Here's a helpful diagram for all you people who forget how to sleep.
>>28756174She just needs to step on the dance floor and the dagger stares will begin.Perhaps I should have said, dancing among them. At their level. As though she was a noble.
>>28756152Thanks arch! Was so thread tonight.
>>28756182Niklaus or Sir Vincent.

>>28756182Reinhold
>>28755980I'd rather ask her about herself since we don't really know anything. I'd also like to vote against asking her to dance right now, since it seems weird to me. I'm not against dancing with her at all, but I'd rather ask her during the party, assuming we get the chance and it's not now or never. But let's be honest, we'll probably not see Mallary for a while.
>>28756191No it will not. Nobody will know her. She will just be another pretty girl in a pretty dress.
>>28756219And I know I'm late, but I'm under the impression that Arch reads and tabulates archive votes.
>>28756053>We're over 1000 posts and it's getting slow to load.What? Even if you have an ancient 56K connection it shouldn't slow if you hide thumbnails.

>>28756379No she is not. She changed her ways years ago and is therefor excluded by her people, but she found happines amongst people. Now she will find love.
>>28756372Monique best girl.
>>28756379It matters not
>>28756317We've already *danced* with Takamaru. A *dance* with Carol might be nice though, if we get through the party without a Happening. (>Implying)Also, >>28756335Otherwise, looking good.
>>28756335The hell she is! It only makes it all the more cute. You never danced with a niece or something? Its adorable.
>>28756379Kitsunes aren't sadists

>>28756463Stories about them typically revolve around them being extraordinarily devoted and proper wives when they aren't being trickster spirits. That's probably Inari's influence, though.
