Twitter: @HeroRena>Last time on HERO QUEST!>We joined Rena as she went out on a coffee date with one of her friends, Shadow Man. After a pleasant outing they visited the Hero Association for their 'No Deaths In Five Days' Party. During the celebration Rena snuck off to visit the Anti-Hero in the hospital. The girl is recovering well but the horror of her past actions is weighing heavily against her. Rena fixes it all with some cake.>Some other stuff happened but that's not important.>We now meet up with the most important character in Hero Quest.
>>30784285Who is the most important character? Lasagna? The dark stranger? Bridgette's costume?
>>30784330Who do you think?
-You are now controlling Queen of the World->The Queen of the World stands with her numerous willing (mind controlled into being willing) servants.>Her house has been built by the greatest architects she could capture and adorned by authentic artifacts from her homeland.>All feels well but...Hmm. I still feel as though something is missing. I have all the things but...It feels inadequate for one sch as myself.
>>30784344You obviously need to add Rena to your host of followers.
>>30784344Reminisce about your childhood. You lose your memories every time you die and come back, but something has to stick with you.
>>30784344YOU CAN'T REINCARNATE. Hide in your house forever.
>>30784344Your clothes are not period accurate. Your silks should be fine enough to be transparent!
>>30784344Spa bath.
>>30784344You need love.Actual love, not brain-wash love.Don't you miss Raindrops?
>>30784390Only the best for the most amazing ruler!
>>30784344You could invite Rena and some friends over, have a housewarming party, liven things up a notch.They probably have some ideas on what you could get next - maybe an entertainment system or something.
>>30784390This man is correct. Embrace your culture.
>>30784344Glorious queen! You need to build a pyramid! No other structure can communicate your eternal majesty as such a structure would! Ok, so the mortals use them as tombs, but you can use it as a symbol of your illustrious reign.
>>30784390Yeah, also it's missing proper midriff.
>>30784344How long has it been since someone made a pyramid for you? Too long, probably.
>>30784394Well, she is an artifact expert, maybe she knows where we can find more stuff from our homeland.
>>30784410A mighty building of only the finest materials! You know you want to.>>30784418Like image related?
>>30784344We need to steal jewelry and trophies from villains that we have defeated.That, or go find that Lyrical Princess girl. She's good at digging things up, maybe she's found some of our rival's tombs from back in the day.
>>30784344Remember Raindrops.
>>30784344It's missing top slave Rena.
>>30784449>>30784444>>30784394>>30784453>>30784461Lost it.
>>30784410Agreed, now that your gods given reincarnation power has been stolen by that fiend, you need to prepare for what to do if you actually die. Luckily Death is only the beginning. You need a proper solar aligned pyramid that your body may be kept for all eternity while your spirit embarks on its cosmic journey. You'll need to make arrangements for your mummification in the event of the unforeseen, and name an heir to see your tomb completed if you die early, given you aren't accustomed to mortality that may be sooner than later. Of course, short of naming an heir, you could always produce one.
>>30784499She could arrange an event to choose the most worthy heir.
>>30784467Do you want the whole place to come crashing down, moments after it was built?
>>30784389Of course I can. That is ridiculous.>>30784499Fool. I am the Queen of the World. I can never die!>>30784383Ah, yes. My childhood. It was a glorious time. My father would say that I shouldn't force my will onto others but I was able to change his mind. Youngest ruler of Egypt.>>30784390Hmm... But where could I find material of such quality in this time? Everything made now is so terrible. Even my current attire, while still amazing, pales in comparison to what I used to wear.>>30784394You mean the creepy girl that kept rubbing my head at the party? I don't think I like being around her.She is like the Servant, Rena. Except with head rubs and less bondage gear.>>30784461What..?What is this? WHAT IS GOING ON HERE!?>>30784467Rena is creepy and not to my liking. She claims to be a normal girl but I have heard rumors.>>30784410I tried that but Iced-T destroyed it all...
>>30784565>You mean the creepy girl that kept rubbing my head at the party? I don't think I like being around her.QuestFuckingDropped
>>30784565>Hmm... But where could I find material of such quality in this time?You must commission it. It is not difficult, find a silk manufacturer.
>>30784565Question: What is the point of being a queen? What does a queen do for her society?
>>30784565>>30784565what rumors have you heardI think you just need to die again and reincarnate super quick
>>30784596This. Assuming you can get enough money, they'll make it. Such fine silks are in fact used outside of fashion all the time.
>>30784565You've died a bunch of times. You just reincarnated, without your memories. That's why Rena suggested you start a journal.And Rena IS normal. She had a perfectly good reason to be tied up with a gag in her mouth, and had no idea what it might look like.She's a nice girl. You should talk to her.
>>30784565How about a few cats? Cat lady is a proud profession in the modern era.
>>30784565fucking Iced-T fucking everything up in the background. Why can't we meet this glorious son of a bitch?
>>30784565Come on queen, don't you remember you and Raindrops having an affair?
>>30784565> I tried that but Iced-T destroyed it all...Build anew! Is that not what your servants are for?Also... THEY SAID THERE WOULD BE CANDY.
>>30784565Is there any way to double-check that you can reincarnate? Better safe than sorry.As for fine silks, look online. You have a computer, right?
>>30784565>You mean the creepy girl that kept rubbing my head at the party? I don't think I like being around her.# of /u/-boats sunk by Larro: II
>>30784565Oh dear God you were adorable.As for the power thing, you were stabbed twice by the cat thing. And it steals one power per stab. You have lost the ability to teleport, but you still have your magical charm power. So that means that the remaining power he stole from you is your reincarnation. You should be more careful.
>>30784565Rainddrops is a strange one, but she might have clues to the tombs of your fellow Egyptians. If you can squeeze the info out of her, you might be able to find some clothing and jewelry worthy of your beauty and grace!
>>30784565Assert your on the world (again)
>>30784565Let's raid a museum.
>>30784642It wasn't ever really a gay thing. Drops is hair sexual.
>>30784565Rena is way too dense to be some kind of deviant.
>>30784565Hey, do you know what the current era calls video games? You should get some. On big screens. Video games addict people so you could control them by learning how to make them.
>>30784721Or she could start a singing career. Get foolish youngster to buy her music and idolize her!
>>30784565you need to build yourself a pyramid, queenie.That horrible cat stole your immortality.
>>30784565How DID you become immortal? Because maybe you can do it again.
>>30784734Sing > Start label > Enslave the nation's most promising and beautiful youths through evil gea-- contracts
>>30784565Obtain the holy lasagna from Monster Maestro.
>>30784565I heard National City Museum has your grandpa's mummy. You should go bring him to your home.
>>30784734Yes, of course! No one will be able to withstand the beauty of our crooning!
>>30784565The people don't -adore- you enough, queen.They serve you, because of mind control.They should -adore- you. Because of your singing.
>>30784784We truly are the most magnificent and evil of villains!
>>30784632... I would never allow such a thing to happen to me.>>30784627I already have a dozen cats. They are prowling about, asserting their position as the best animal.>>30784624... She is a good servant. I do still use the Tome of Cherished Memories daily.>>30784598I rule over everyone and make them do my bidding.Obviously.>>30784596"Peasant! Find someone to make me the finest silk possible! I want a dress so well crafted that it is practically see-through!">Her mind controlled slave nods and runs off to get her a new dress.>>30784653Hmph. Very well. The Raindrops servant may be useful despite her deviant tenancies.>The Queen calls up Raindrops from what her servants call a 'Cell Phone'."Hello!? Is this Raindrops!? Speak, peasant!"RD: "... Hello? Why are you yelling?""I AM THE QUEEN OF THE WORLD. I COMMAND YOU TO WORK FOR ME."RD: "Oh, wow! Queen! How's it going?""It is going well, thank you for asking! NOW COME TO MY HOME. YOU WILL LEAD MY TO EGYPTIAN ARTIFACTS AND I WILL CLAIM THEM."RD: "You really don't need to yell... Listen, I'm not at the city right now but I can be there in about an hour. I know some ruins that I really think you would be interested in.""PERFECT! Come as soon as you can, peasant! Phone, turn off!"RD: "... Uhm...""I COMMAND YOU TO TURN OFF.">Raindrops hangs up. Queen is satisfied that the phone listened to her.I have one hour before the Raindrops Peasant appears.
>>30784867Take a shower. Use lots of conditioner.
>>30784867Quick, get your hair styled!
>>30784867>>>Her mind controlled slave nods and runs off to get her a new dress.Excellent. Find your best dress and prepare with a fine bath for your guest!
>>30784867Read a manual on how to use cell phones
>>30784867Get some candy.
>>30784867Get a full-body mirrorGaze at your beauteous figureLet out a proper ojou laughTruly, you are the most magificent female in the world!
>>30784867Have a feast and entertainment prepared.
>>30784867We must prepare our audience chamber to strike proper fear and reverence into this Rainddrops woman! She shall tremble at the legions of slaves that we can bring to bear, and the gold of our halls shall blind her feeble eyes!
>>30784867Quickly, everthing must be prepared!Gather servants for your podium, after all, you don't want to walk all the way there.And make sure you've got at least four of them with large palm leaves, it can get very hot in the sun.
>>30784867Have a feast prepared in your own honor that she has the privilege of witnessing, and while it's cooking, summon your voice recording slave to lay down some quick vocal tracks.
>>30784867Well, you better get ready. And by getting ready I mean ordering your faithful servants to get things ready for you. Some comfortable means of transport, digging equipments, picnic basket (you know what picnic is, right?) you don't have to be hungry while claiming relics, that sort of stuff.
>>30784867Prepare a proper welcoming party. Might as well show off your new crib a little. If you could get her to work for you, she could help you gain more artifacts, gold and power than anyone! Have your servants prepare some lunch, while you go take a shower, and get a new dress. Also wash your hair and try to make it wavy or something. Her weakness is beautiful hair like yours - it'd only make getting her to work for you easier.Then prepare your servants for a digging expedition.
>>30784867Clearly you must prepare yourself for your visitor, for even if she is a peasant a queen must keep up appearances! Have the servant draw your bath, prepare you're perfumes and ready your finest clothing! It must must be done!
>>30784565>My father would say that I shouldn't force my will onto others but I was able to change his mind.You mean you mind-controlled him, right?
>>30784867Order your servants to give your hair the most luxurious lathering and conditioning in preparation for Raindrops' arrival.
So if this city isn't in Egypt, Queen, where is it?
>>30784867watch favorite show on the entertainment box.

>>30785072> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OvoijbitVrAThere's an entire channel of these.
>>30785088Egypt is forever in her heart! Just like the true meaning of Christmas, or Sniper Island
>>30785134Love Lab is shit. I was expecting yuri but they're all cock-hungry sluts.
>>30785039>You mean you mind-controlled him, right?>> Youngest ruler of Egypt.I think more than that happened.
>>30785072
>>30784867Do a Web search on yourself.
>>30785088Wherever I am is where my kingdom is.>>30785039Yes.Alright, time to get everything ready for my trip.>The Queen orders her slaves around. The one sent out to get the silk is told he has an hour or else she would take away his snack privilege. She gives herself the best bath possible and makes sure her hair is very silky. It normally is but with her special hair wash products it is as soft as the finest silk.>Speaking of silk her dress is finished. It is very airy and if not for a few well placed straps it would simply fall off of her skin. She also decides to go without her headdress.>She admires her form in a mirror as others prepare a feast behind her. She has them gather food for the trip and digging equipment. Most of the items confuse her but she trusts that they will follow her orders as best as they can.I must say I think I look particularly good today.>Someone knocks on the door.Ah, that must be her!
>>30784867It has been decided! You must...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gzeOWnnSNjg
>>30785219>Dat transparencyoh yiss.
>>30785219Have your servants open. Did they prepare everything for your guest?
>>30784867Shower, shave, clean teeth and mouth.
>>30785219brace for stabbing
>>30785219>Ninja queen.
>>30785219...Things are about to get lewd.
>>30785219Have your servants bring your quest to the audience chamber, where you will welcome her in royal manner befitting the queen of the world.
>>30784867>I rule over everyone and make them do my bidding.Obviously.Well, yes, but.. why? What would the world be like without a ruler?
>>30785219Have servants escort her in while you get fanned, to blow your hair in the wind just right to manipulate her.
>>30785316Yes. And play with your hair.
>>30785219>Ah, that must be her!
>>30785219Do this >>30785316!
>>30785307A world without the queen? Stone this heretic to death immediately.
>>30785316Perfect.
>>30785316>>30785325That's like flashing. Lewd!
>>30785286> imagewut
>>30785219>Her servants welcome Raindrops as though she were royalty. Not quite as royal as the Queen but still, good enough. The girl looks rather flustered as everyone showers her with praises and walks her to the Queen. She sits atop a golden throne with a soft velvet cushion."Welcome, peasant Raindrops, to my home. Please, make yourself comfortable. We have much to discuss."RD: "Uhm... Okay.">She takes a seat and the two of them discuss their upcoming trip to the ruins. Outside of the city is a dangerous place with a few Mysterious Beings still wandering around. Raindrops has her own ways of taking care of them but they must travel light. That means the Queen's massive amount of items needs to be slimmed down quite a bit. A single servant with a backpack would be best.>The Queen reluctantly agrees to this. Another servant arrives saying that their midday meal is prepared.>Raindrops is treated to a feast and is waited on hand and foot. As soon as her cup is empty someone comes by and refills it with the best wine available."So, peasant. Do you enjoy music?"RD: "I do.""Excellent. I have a few songs you may enjoy. I wrote them myself.">A servant plays the Queen's latest jams.'I am the Queen of the World!Bow before me!This is my command!You can not disobey!'>The rest of the songs are pretty similar."Well? What do you think?"RD: "...."Ha!She is speechless Clearly I am the best singer in the world.
>>30785403QOTW, you couldn't be more correct! Now sing the one about the ruination of those who oppose you!
>>30785403>RD: Try to resist that silky, perfect hair>Fail>Fail miserably
>>30785403Your singing might be ok, but those lyrics could use some work.Have you considered recruiting a lyrical wordsmith?
>>30785403RD:give the gentlest musical critique possible
>>30785403Continue singing!Also, ask her how she avoids the monsters.
>>30785403Hmm, that's not bad, but it's a bit samey isn't it? You should write songs about how great you are and your various crimes. Make it sound like you could pull off any heist, that you're the best villain ever.You could also write about life in ancient egypt and how great it was.
>>30785403Only one servant, eh?Bring Rena along. She's your best servant.
>>30785403You should tell her that she is lucky to be in your silky presence. This must be a pretty big honor for her, after all.
>>30785403>not rumFix this, Queenie. Get her relaxed and easy to manipulate.
>>30785403Toss your floofy hair with one hand and lean forward with your half lidded, dark blue eyeshadowed eyes and command her to sing you a song.Obviously it will be about how great you are.Wouldn't it be fun to make her sing about how great you are?
>>30785474This. She's the most capable, too.
>>30785387>wutFrom the S:TC chat on Akun. There's a guy that doodles shit whenever Angelic says something he thinks is funny.===AngelicHow is everyone?VoiceFantasticVoiceYourself?AngelicIn some queer state between focused, tired and restless. Imagine someone hanging a gigawatt laser from the ceiling, then spinning it.AngelicSo... pretty okay, if feeling odd, haha.VoiceAre you the laser or are you just in the room with the laser?AngelicMy attention is the laser.Voicegotchya===And then the pic got posted.
>>30785403>'I am the Queen of the World!>Bow before me!>This is my command!>You can not disobey!'Hey, it's honestly better than most present day popmusic.
>>30785403Now ruffle HER hair! Assert your dominance before you head out on this trip.
>>30785403Eh, I know certain other Queen which makes much better music...
>>30785403>>30785526>>30785526Show the deviant who is boss (you are).
>>30785403Did anyone notice how her face is wider than it's long?
>>30785569It is merely an artistic liberty to display how impressed she is by our queen's singing.
>>30785403>>30785554Not to worry though, Queen of the World, this other Queen no longer reigns, though is still fondly remembered. Perhaps you should study their records for inspiration.
>>30785569Well, she's (ex) Magical Girl.
>>30785403RD:Demonstrate queen gaga music to queen of hte world.
>>30785569She is a former magical girl, I imagine she retains the ability to go Hidomari Sketch when the situation calls for it.
>>30785526OR we could seal our pact with mutual hair ruffling.
>>30785611pinky pls goyou already have your own quest
>>30785491And she knows MGS and MMA, who are also living outside the city.So we might stop there for brunch or something equally fancy.
>>30785403Hmmm, this requires our best servant, SUMMON RENA!That reminds me, Queen, you control all before you...but I am curious, can you control US!?
>>30785649lolnowe're the voices of chaoswe're uncontrollable by definition
>>30785526I am not ruffling her hair! It looks all poofy and normal!And kinda adorable how it just sticks out at angles.I now desire wavy hair.I hate you, voices.>>30785554WHO!?>>30785490>The Queen tosses her silky smooth hair and leans forward. She smiles at Raindrops and commands her to sing her a song about the Queen.RD: "Eh? Uhm... I... I can try, I guess.""Go. Sing to me.">Sparkle inhales and begins her song.'Lost and far from home, The Queen, ruler of puppetsDesires nothing more than to cut these strings from her hands.Without them she is alone, with them she is alone.uhm....Also she has really nice hair.'"..."That was better than mine. I must find a way to steal her voice."... You have much work to do on your voice. Now, tell me how you get pass these monsters!"RD: "Well like I said there's a lot of them and there's a bunch of ways to get around them. My way is to take a route that pretty much avoids all of them. If I do encounter one I have some smoke pellets and flash bombs to escape.""I see. How long will this trip take?"RD: "If we take the long way? About 2 days. There's a shortcut but it's dangerous. It'd get us there in only a few hours. I can handle either but I'm just worried about you."Worried about me!?I can handle monsters!
>>30785729queen, do your powers WORK on monsters?test your eye lasers.See if they're still monster-kill grade
>>30785729By royal decree, shortcut it is!
>>30785729>I now desire wavy hair.Well if you own HER, then her hair belongs to you, right? It's just as good as having it yourself. I'm pretty sure that's how it works.
>>30785729Remember, you'll only have the one servant. No waves to send into the meatgrinder to clog it up for you.Take the long route.
>>30785729Please, the Queen of the World has nothing to fear from monsters.You can always mind control them, right?
>>30785729THE SNAIL IS THE EVIL KITTY!!!!
>>30785729Shut up for one second and ask her why she is worried. If she is worried for you, there may be something dangerous down there.
>>30785729>I hate you, voices.We get that a lot.Might as well take the two day route, it's not like you're in hurry for anything, right?
>>30785729Long route is best Queen, anything worth doing is worth taking your time, as an Immortal I am certain you know this.However, the servant you bring absolutely must be Rena. Can you think of no one more useful and as expendable?
>>30785729We're taking Rena with us as our servant, she should be more worried about her! Though thank her for her concern and advice, it's nice to see someone care for their ruler. We will heed her advice, as our recently hired Ruin Expert.Long route it is. Bring Rena with you.
>>30785729If you are to face monsters, you must be properly attired. Break out the bronze armour and the bronze khopesh! Don't forget your crown either, for the monsters need to know they are facing the queen!
>>30785802this queen and she is worried about your safety that's nice maybe you should let her ruffle your hair a bit see how it feels
>>30785403things are not going really well.
>>30785729Worst case scenario is you die. And that's not a problem at all! Goooo for it.
>>30785219>Wherever I am is where my kingdom is.Well could you just stop by some time anyways? I know you just separated us a few a few millenia ago but the kids are fighting again.You might need to bring a pretty big sad box this time.
>>30785729Let us take the long route, so that we can better get to know this Raindrops woman.
>>30785729Consider this. Your singing makes people swoon in delight, but is that due to your talent, or due to your charm magic? Come to think of it, how much of your subjects' adoration is earned, and how much is because they're hypnotized? Who would love you when awake?
The long route will suffice. I just need to make sure I am comfortable enough during the journey.>>30785788...I have not tried.>>30785885I am not allowing her to ruffle my hair!"We shall take the long route. We do not need to face danger and I am not in a fighting mood myself."RD: "Sounds good. Alright, I need to pack things up and we can leave tomorrow.""Today. We shall leave today."RD: "Really? Well... Alright. I'll just go home and pack and I'll be back soon.">>30785784Yes. I shall have her and her hair!"Raindrops, you do not need to go home! You shall stay here and we will leave now!">The Queen's eyes glow as she tries to control Raindrops.RD: "... That isn't going to work. I made these glasses just to stop that kinda stuff.""Oh..."RD: "I'll be back in a bit.">She leaves.... I think I upset her for some reason.>>30785819>The Queen orders Rena to be called. It appears that the girl is busy hanging out with some people at some party.It is hard to find reliable servants these days... Reliable non-mind controlled servants.
>>30786113>how much of your subjects' adoration is earned, and how much is because they're hypnotized?>implying there's difference
>>30786116Try controlling her through more subtle means. Like getting to know her and being her friend. If you make her your concubine, you can ruffle her hair whenever you want~
>>30786116Well people don't usually like being controlled. How would you like it if she mind-controlled you?
>>30786116Queen, don't you see that she's already under your control?
>>30786116Maybe it's because she likes you for real, and she's not happy that you tried to force her to like you because you don't need to.Or maybe it's just because she doesn't like mind control.
>>30786116Hey Queenie how's it feel to be someone's fetish?
>>30786116Clearly, she must be upset about something if she does not wish to join the ranks of your servants at your glorious court.
>>30786116Hm, the glasses are clever, but now we know that she will be weak when we remove them! For now we should lure her into a false sense of security though, apologize for our brash actions and all of that.We shall have those fluffy locks soon my queen...
>>30786210Brash? There was nothing brash about that command.
>>30786116Maybe you controlled her in a previous life? Who knows.Either way, you should try to be more polite to someone who's willing to help you. Maybe apologize.Then strike when she's vulnerable. Make a friend.For now, prepare your stuff. Pack up your diary as well.
>>30786116You may not remember this Queenie, but one time Raindrops tried to control YOU using the dastardly tactic of holding hands. Maybe that's her only weakness!
>>30786116She's probably got backup contacts or something too.
>>30786289Or the glasses are just a ruse, and she has other forms of resisting mind control.
>>30786193
>>30786422>implying tousling is legitimate rape
>>30786422You asked for it.
>>30786422She wasn't just asking for my worship, she was DEMANDING it. And I most certainly gave it to her.
>>30786442As opposed to the illegitimate rapes. Gotta stay legit in your raping. Union rules and all that.
RANDOM DRAWFAG HODraw more? less

>>30786483I encourage you to keep drawing.Don't share, though.
>>30786252>>30786185Hmph. I suppose mind control may not be the best option. But I refuse to apologize to her!>The Queen packs up her belongings and instead of a servant carrying her stuff she merely tosses her staff onto the ground. It changes into a giant snake which she places her belongings on. Raindrops comes back a short time later, fully packed, and the two set off.>It is difficult to leave the city. A lot of paperwork needs to be done for it but Raindrops is able to get pass most of it by flashing her Artifact Finder card.>Once they are out the two of them set off into the ruins. The Queen rides on her massive snake as Raindrops walks beside them. She points out a few well known monster locations and the best ways to defeat or get pass them. The Queen listens to her talk and asks a few questions of her own as they journey.>It's different than what she's used to when she mind controls people.>Soon it is dark and they stop for the night."What is this?"RD: "A tent. You didn't pack one so I guess we'll have to share.""Share? Share this!? This is terrible! I would not even allow a servant to sleep in there!"RD: "When you're out on the field it's the best you'll get. It really isn't that bad.""I refuse!"RD: "Well... It's either that or sleep outside. In the sand. At night."
>>30786862SLEEP INSIDE, YOU DON'T WANT TO CATCH A COLD.You know you want to get your hair ruffled.
>>30786862Do it Queenie, but start playing with her hair before she strikes!
>>30786862Climb inside the snake.
>>30786862FINE. BUT NO FUNNY BUSINESS.
>>30786895Forget the cold, you don't want sand in your lady parts, do you?
>>30786862Look at it this way, Queen: she lugged that tent all this way, just for you. Refusing it would be like refusing her loyalty to yourself. And her sleeping with you is just because she is so loyal that if anything ambushes you two in the night, she wants to make sure she can shield your beautiful form from harm with her own body, even if you don't need such protection.
>>30786862Well, sleeping out wouldn't actually sound too bad, but deserts get cold fast during the night, and your sheer silk dress isn't the best protection against that. Your snake doesn't help either, because they are coldblooded creatures. Tent seems the best option. Take it as a study of plebeian customs.
>>30786862...Fine, we shall sleep in this hovel, but it wouldn't keep a dog warm! Demand that Raindrops keep you warm with her body heat. Also, bring the snake in, the poor thing will freeze in the cold.
>>30786862>She points out a few well known monster locations and the best ways to defeat or get pass them. The Queen listens to her talk and asks a few questions of her own as they journey.Queenie, make sure to write it down.Well, just have your snake-staff coiled around you for the night and it will be good enough.
>>30786862I'm only following to see more implied nudity.
>>30786862Sleep inside. Change into your pajamas so as not to wrinkle your beautiful dress. If you didn't bring pajamas, sleep au naturel. If you get cold, use Raindrops for warmth.Try not to ruffle her hair. Ruffle her hair.
>>30786992>If you didn't bring pajamas, sleep au naturel. If you get cold, use Raindrops for warmth.Yessss.
>>30786917
>>30786992>>30786940These two, Queenie. They speak wisdom.
>>30786862It's either that or the snake, Queen, and snakes are cold-blooded.
>>30786922That's what snake is for...
>>30786940And if you do sleep inside, you can tell each other stories of when you were little.
>>30787046... A snake would make a poor bed. I will keep little Hissy as a staff for now."Very well, I shall join you. But no funny business.">>30786992What are pajamas?RD: "Gotcha. Come on in, there's plenty of room for the two of us.">The Queen joins Raindrops in the tent. Raindrops has two bedrolls spread out for them to lay on. The soft sand underneath them makes for a pretty comfortable bed.>The Queen begins to strip as she readies herself for bed.RD: "Uhm... What are you doing?""Getting ready for the most uncomfortable sleep in my life. Why did you change?"RD: "... Goodnight, Queen.">Raindrops crawls into her bedroll and covers her head with a blanket.Hmph.Weird girl.
>>30787123She might not consider herself worthy to look upon your exposed form.
>>30787123RUFFLE HER HAIR
>>30787123Well, if you get cold, you can always seize her body heat by crawling into her bedroll. You're both women, after all, so there is nothing improper about that.
>>30787160Why would I deny someone the right to witness my splendor? That would be criminal, even for one such as I.====================================>Soon it is morning. The Queen wakes up and can smell something cooking outside....My head feels weird...
>>30787160>>She might not consider herself worthy to look upon your exposed form.Indeed. You should alert her of the allowance you grace her with.
>>30787193Your hair! She ruffled it!You must confront her about it!
>>30787193your head is a mess.The lack of pillows really did a number on it.
>>30787193Geez, that's some serious bed-hair.Get Raindrops to fix it for you.
>>30787193Smooth our coif into something resembling its normal perfection. We cannot be seen with something so plebian as bedhead!At least the woman is paying us properly for the privilege of seeing our sacred flesh, food is an excellent offering.
>>30787193That unclassy lady ruffled your hair while you were sleeping! That's almost illegal!
>>30787193Wow, what happened to your hair?
>>30787193YOU GOT TOUSLED!
>>30787193Bed Hair, my Queen!This will not do, it will need to be fixed. Have raindrops style your hair into its proper majesty.
>>30787193go investigate cooking.
>>30787255INDEED
Bedhead..? This is horrible. I can not travel any longer looking like this!"Raindrops peasant! I am in need of your services!"RD: "What is it?""Fix my hair! And my meal!"===================================>Raindrops soon finds herself fixing up the Queen's 'bedhead'. She is quite skilled, not even using a comb to clear any tangles or knots. The Queen sits down on a stool and enjoys the pleasant feelings of the girl's finger's running through her hair."You are not bad, peasant. Not bad at all."RD: "Th-thanks... So, uhm... Why are you looking for artifacts anyway?""To adorn my already beautiful house. It will be glorious!"RD: "I see... Well I don't mind helping you. I don't know if anyone's told you this but we used to be arch enemies back when I was in the Hero Association.""Is that so? Well then the past me must have considered you a worthy foe. Tell me, how did you defeat me?"RD: "Uhm... I uh... Used my magic powers..."Hmm...I sense she is not telling me the truth.Ah, if only I could mind control her into telling me the whole thing.I suppose more subtle tactics must be used.

>>30787451Ask her if she can do anything about your post-reincarnation memory loss. It is terribly inconvenient.
>>30787451Ask her politely to tell you. Maybe say how you really don't remember anything from your previous lives, and ask her to forgive you if you do something that makes her feel uncomfortable or brings back bad memories.
>>30787451Pretend to lean in for a kiss and then HEADB- er, steal her glasses.
>>30787451Compliment her on her hair fixing skills. Tell her that her fingers feel really good on your scalp and you forgive her for touching your ear every now and then. After all, who could resist such divine ears as yourself.Bring up that your own majestic history is unfortunately lost to you, and command her to tell you the full story! So you can write it down in your journal.Command her to tell you more about these artifacts you're heading to, while you're at it.
>>30787451Ask her if, as a reward for her skilled jar detangling, she would accept the boon of your help detailing her hair. If she accepts, ask her advice for the detangling since her skill is superior to any we've seen before, and it will both make her feel useful to and cherished by you, her new lord.
"You know, you should get a job doing this. Your fingers feel divine."RD: "Thanks...""Truly they do. It is fun if you wish to touch my ear every now and again. Who can blame you for being tempted by their perfection?"RD: "Uhm... Uhm..."Haha. She sounds rather adorable when flustered."I would really like it if you told me more about us. I do not remember a thing. Perhaps you can write it down in my Tome of Cherished Memories?"RD: "... I'll think about it...""So, how did you really defeat me?">Before she can get an answer out of the girl the two of them hear something shifting the sand behind them. A monstrous spider digs it's way out of the sand and hisses at them.RD: "Ah! My flash bombs!">Raindrops runs into the tent, tripping a few times along the way.>The Queen grabs her staff and sighs."Insolent beast.

>>30788121>Species using hemocyanin for oxygen transportation are commonly crustaceans living in cold environments with low oxygen pressure. Under these circumstances hemoglobin oxygen transportation is less efficient than hemocyanin oxygen transportation.>Most hemocyanins bind with oxygen non-cooperatively and are roughly one-fourth as efficient as hemoglobin at transporting oxygen per amount of blood. Even leaving the "it's a monster, I don't gotta explain shit" argument aside, given both its great size and that it's a desert-dweller, I'd imagine it'd probably make more sense for it to be red-blooded from an efficiency standpoint.

There's some neat stuff around that I haven't messed with too much and this massive blocked door near the back. If you're looking for some really cool artifacts I think there's a storage room down this hallway. I haven't checked it out myself but these places tend to be built the same.

Pft. These runes could not possibly speak of me. They tell of a queen who people did not love completely.

>>30788901My Queen, I do not believe for a second that you would even be remotely winded by such a tiny climb. Such a tiny endeavor would surely be no trouble for you to accomplish!
>>30788901But what if something else happens and you need her powers then? It's possible that there might be a situation even MORE distasteful for you to address personally.
>>30788901Naw Queen. You love her like all your subjects, right? Would you make someone you love give up an item that's important to them just to save yourself some convenience? You're the Queen of the World! Not that evil ruler written about on the walls.
>>30788901Sometimes a show of force is required to remind the peasants why exactly you are queen and they are your peasants. The plebes are a forgetful lot, after all.Besides, if you get all disheveled from the climbing, that just means she has to fix your hair again, which means you get to tease her again.
>>30788901You selfish bitch. Don't you dare make her use that. You want to be a proper Queen? Then be a proper leader.A real leader, someone people want to follow, is one who doesn't use others as pawns. One who values the lives of his subordinates over his own. If you can help, you fucking help. And it doesn't matter if it means getting down in the mud and sweating like a pig farmer.That's how you get respect, not by making others do work for you.You stop her, and say you can get the both of you out of this. Because Raindrops dropped everything to help you to be nice.Return the favor, or be scum.
>>30788901this is your only servant atm, do not waste her
>>30788901Wait. That might be useful for something more important than merely avoiding some physical effort. It could save your life later.Climb the chute.
>>30788901You should probably just climb it dude... but you don't want to ruin your nice silk dress, so take that off first.
>>30788901that's her focus, shes talking about giving up the last of her power to save you both. I think sweating would be worth keeping her from having to do lose the last of her magical strength.
>>30788901That's not very queenly of you. You're stronger than any peasant, so it should be no trouble at all for you to climb up the chute if one of them can do it! But her jewel is irreplacable to her; we can't use up something like that if there's an easy alternative.Or... are you saying it would be too difficult for you?
>>30788901No. This is your chance to impress her with your superior powers, don't let her upstage your glory with her puny magical girly magic!
>>30788901Yeah, no. Let her keep the magical trinket. You can be graceful even when climbing, so there is no need to avoid the act.
>>30788901She used that trinket to defeat you! Will you be so base and cowardly to let it defeat you again?
>>30788901Assuming you are going to show her your power by taking care of this without her peasant assistance, remember to leave your dress with her so it isn't marred or torn by debris or the rock you will be climbing.
>>30788901The whole reason you came here is to retrieve some mementos from your past.Are you really going to go and deprive Raindrops of hers?
>>30788901Steal the magical trinket. Use it for yourself.

The Queen simply pushes it open.RD: "How did you..?">Inside there is an amazing room adorned with massive amounts of gold. There are vases, suits of armor, and weapons. Laying in the center of it is a golden sarcophagus with a box lying atop it.RD: "That must be her most cherished possession... Usually it's placed inside the sarcophagus with them but whoever entombed this lady didn't put it with her.">The Queen examines the box. It appears to have a simple lock on it, easy enough to smash open if she felt like it.Those eyes look familiar.
>>30789267Open the box. OPEN IT OPEN IT OPEN IT
>>30789267Open it, hopefully without smashing it
Rolled 7>>30789267>>The Queen examines the box. It appears to have a simple lock on it, easy enough to smash open if she felt like it.open the box
>>30789267oh.It's her kitty.
>>30789267The box has eyes?Mind control it to open for you!
Those are your eyes.I believe the box contains your memories Queen. Maybe all that you lost? Maybe just those of your first life.
>>30789267Open the box. Have Raindrops examine what else is worthy to be stored in your house.
>>30789267Don't smash it, open it, unlock it.
>>30789267Leave the Box! It is uncouth in the extreme to disturb the remains of a fellow queen, no matter how inferior her rule was.Psst. Raindrop, open the box!
>>30789267You're not Indiana Jones, you don't just destroy priceless artifacts
>>30789267>Those eyes look familiar.No kidding.There should be no need to break the box open; after all, the lock should recognize your authority and simply yield. Raindrops was surprised that you opened the giant door, and it's still full of all of its treasure, which must have meant it was locked before. But the door opened itself when confronted with your majesty, as it should. The box should do the same....if the box remains closed, then maybe break it open for its insolence, but NOT BEFORE THEN.
>>30789267Poke it first, it may be a mimic!
>>30789267Ask Raindrops to fan you. She might as well do SOMETHING useful if you're doing all the hard work.
>>30789267Queen...I'm sorry. You or your mother are in the box.
>>30789267You probably shouldn't smash it. It could be booby trapped to destroy whatever's in it.Do you have any idea where the eyes are from? Perhaps from the writings elsewhere in the pyramid? Do they correspond to any specific people, places, or the like?
You shouldn't bother putting the dress back on. After all, you're all sweaty!
>>30789267Don't break it.Order the box to open.
>>30789405What if her dick is in the box?
>>30789422Naturally.
>>30789428Then she can finally make a proper woman (and mother) out of Raindrops
>>30789267You...DID bring Hissy up with you, right?
>>30789422Of course! Are you mad?!
>>30789267Nicely done, Queen. It's natural for a great ruler to accept the burdens that their subjects cannot.That box... looks kind of like a snake. Does that ring any bells.
>>30789267It's YOUR box. Open it.
>>30789422Actually this outfit is quite airy.>>30789461Of course. I would die if Hissy was lost to me.Now, open you silly box!>The box opens as soon as she lifts the lid. Inside there is a small bundle of silk wrapping a few objects. She sets the box on top of the sarcophagus and opens the bundle of silk.>Inside there is an ancient but still edible piece of candy, some kind of cat and stick toy, and a pendant.That's it? These were her most cherished possessions? Hmph. I was expecting a bunch of gold covered diamonds or diamond covered gold. Something of actual value.>She looks at the sarcophagus. It is a massive golden thing with two purple gems set in it's eyes.Still...For them to not give it to her as she was entombed.They must have truly hated her.
>>30789461Oh my god! Hissy!
>>30789543Yeah, lovingly open your box.
>>30789556WEAR THAT PENDANT
>>30789556Find out who's in there. Open it up.You realize if it's empty that this is your tomb, right?
>>30789556...About how big is that sarcophagus?Child sized?
>>30789556>Naruto amulets
>>30789556give her the items.
>>30789556By chance, Queen, do you have any idea what color your eyes are when you use your mind control?
>>30789556Shhh, no tears, Queen, for you are one.You ruled them well. Even if they hated you, that is your burden to bear in the course of your divine duties.
>>30789556Hey what's up with the necklace on the sarcophagus? It almost looks like PUZZLES or something. Also maybe open the thing to give her her junk.
Rolled 16>>30789556PUT ON THAT PENDANT!
>>30789556Give these things to her, then close the box. None should be left to suffer so for all eternity.
>>30789556Value is subjective. There's a lot of gold and diamonds in the world, but if a simple object reminds someone of their loved ones, or the most cherished times of their past, it can be very precious to them....We should keep these safe.
>>30789556Well, if she was a child empress, those would be her most prized possessions.Do they ring any bells?
>>30789603I wouldn't want to use mind control while staring in a mirror. Would you?
>>30789556>edible piece of candyYeah, it was a good thing you didn't bring Rena.Knowing her, she probably would've eaten that Millenium Candy already.
>>30789556Careful not to break your phylactery!
>>30789556What were your most cherished possessions in your first life?
>>30789556>>30789638>if a simple object reminds someone of their loved ones, or the most cherished times of their past, it can be very precious to themExactly.You'd be upset if someone happened upon some of YOUR most cherished items and then started talking about how your Tome of Cherished Memories is just a dumb, boring book. Because it doesn't have to be important to them to be important to you.
Queen, Are you ready to face it...are you ready to understand and look upon yourself with clarity and reflection?Remove the mask. Read the hieroglyphics about the room. Let them tell you the story.
Almost forgot to post this
>>30789809Right, just like pic related is totally canon
>>30789809so... warner bro. studios?
...>The Queen handles the simple toy. She plays with it, trying to get the cat into the hole.>A sudden flash of insight reveals to her the strategy of how to do exactly that. She remembers something from centuries ago. A game she used to play just like this with a very similar toy.>>30789670I... I think they would have been something similar to this. But it has been so so long. I do not recall.>>30789656My what?>>30789587Just about...>>30789601I may as well reuinite this hated queen with her belongings.>She reluctantly puts the toy away and bundles the items all up again. With her massive strength she is able to lift both lids to the sarcophagus.>When she sees what's inside she freezes up.>A mummified child rests inside, set upon a bed of rotting fabrics. Their eyes and lips are sewn together.>The Queen backs away from the sarcophagus, suddenly feeling quite ill. She looks around the chamber and reads the runes once again.>A child ruler who had claimed the throne from her father. She ruled with an iron fist and forced all to love her. At the same time they came to hate her. She could not control them all and the few she did not began to help free those she did. When they had gathered enough forces they kidnapped her, blindfolding her to keep her demonic eyes at bay. The rest is too destroyed to read but it appears what they did to her was not entirely pleasant.I...I don't understand...
>>30789884make sure Raindrops doesn't desecruffle your mummy's hair
>>30789884Cling onto Raindrops for support as you cry.You're not crying. You're not!Your eyes are just leaking for some reason.
>>30789884People don't like it when you force them, Queenie.
>>30789884Another body for the body garden!
>>30789884Get Raindrops to explain. This can't be true!
>>30789884So, about that never ending self esteem of yours. Welcome to self doubt!
>>30789884I think you should find somewhere safe to sit down for awhile.
>>30789884Being Queen truly is suffering.Close the lid.Apologize. You can't do anything for them now, but you can redeem yourself. Perhaps in the next life they'll forgive you - without being forced.
>>30789884Even as a mummy, your hair is fantastic
>>30789884Hush Queen, they do not see you as we do.Now cry into Raindrops's chest.
>>30789884Whatever your sins, Queen, you didn't deserve this. You were only a child, and children don't understand how the world works. You only wanted affection, and they murdered you for it.Release your servants. Let them go home. Let those who love you do so of their own volition.
>>30789976And recover Hissy.
>>30789884Does everyone REALLY love you, Queen? I think you may have to start asking some hard questions about yourself.
>>30789884Apparently people don't like being controlled. Usually.Also that was you. You awful, selfish, contemptible monster. All that's left to you is an empire of dirt and the hatred of the dead.Fun, huh?
>>30789884Queen, what you did is mind rape. You mind raped them. HONK HONK
>>30789884That's you, or something.Necromantic experiments.But you'll just deny it because you're an idiot and/or in denial.Your mummy is hot by the way.
>>30789884Ask Raindrops if people hated you all this time.
>>30789993this
>>30789884Put your old things in with your corpse, Queen. You've come this far.Just remember that no matter what those peasants did to you, how justified they were, you still aren't totally beyond redemption. You aren't a bad person.
>>30789884people tend to hate having someone control them, even if you control them to make them love you they will hate you once your control is broken
>>30789884Haha, nobody loves you after all.
>>30789884You tried to force the world to love you without paying any attention to what they wanted or needed. You couldn't control them completely, and they turned against you to save themselves. Your rule came to an abrupt end at the hands of those you had wronged.If there's something to be learned from this, it's that you can't force people to love you for real. True loyalty has to be earned, and to do that, you have to be a good Queen.
>>30789884My guess is they cursed you free of the afterlife's embrace until you learned humility and gained the love of one without the use of mind control. So unless you want to die make sure no one ever falls in love with you. Ever!
>>30789884>>30789993>>30790054This is pretty good advice.
>>30789884>realize the only people who legitimately like you are the pervert weirdos Rena and Raindrops.
>>30789884I warned you Queen. Having the power to change anothers mind by force and making them love you is not the same as being loved.Human beings value their freedom, to steal it from them is a crime that only a Saint would forgive....a saint like Rena.Here it is, Queen. The truth of your past laid before you. Do you react in anger, or do you let it in. Do you accept the truth and it's finality. Do you look in the mirror and see how ugly and closed off you had allowed you heart to become.You have the potential to be beautiful, truly beautiful, if only you allow yourself to be so, if only you accept the things about yourself you would rather not accept, and then the healing can begin.
>>30789995She already did.
>>30789993And give in to the terrorists that killed her? Really? We're settling for a strategy of appeasement? Has that ever worked?
>>30789884This is still happening to you, over and over again.I think from now on you should institute a policy of only holding slaves for a limited amount of time. You still need them to be a villain, but you should let them have their lives too, or else... they'll hate you.Or you could become a Hero, and mind-control villains to make them do your bidding and thus make penance for their foul deeds.Regardless I think you need to turn to Raindrops now for comfort.
>>307900821) They're dead.2) You're an idiot.3) They were right.
>>30790082Even the voice of madness can become the voices of justice. We may be voyeurs to this tale, but we can also use our brief glimmer of influence as a force for the greater good. How long has this shadow of the child empress suffered...how long has she been denied the right of her people's kings to walk among the gods.How long must she be forced to relive her mistakes?How long until she can learn what it truly means to be happy? To grow up and become a worthy Ruler, and not the pale imitation she plays at like the child she was buried as?
>>30789884Nobody likes you go eat worms.
>The Queen packs the small bundle of items near her old corpse and closes the sarcophagus up again. She finds a rock somewhere and sits on it.So... They did not love me. I had always thought...All these years...I think I'm going to cry.>Raindrops hears Queen sobbing and walks over to her.RD: "Hey... You okay?">The Queen shakes her head."This is my tomb."RD: "I know. I figured maybe you'd want some of... Oh. Oh.... You found out something bad, didn't you?""Everyone hated me. They kidnapped me and they killed me. They did horrible things. I didn't know though. I thought... I'm the Queen of the World. I thought I was just helping them."RD: "Queen, I... You didn't know that people don't like it when you mind control them?">She shakes her head."How could I tell when they would love me for it? I bet if I released my currents servants they would try to kill me too. I'm am a horrible Queen. They do not love me. It is as empty as me loving myself.">With a thought she releases her hold on all those she had before.RD: "Queen, I'm so sorry... I thought this would be a cool trip for you but I messed it up.">She puts a hand on her shoulder.
>>30790149Wouldn't it be the other way around?
>>30790201YOU ARE QUEEN, YOU DO NOT NEED TO CRY
>>30790201RD: Kiss the Queen
>>30790201hug raindrops, right now you really need a shoulder to cry on.
>>30790201"Thank you for caring, but... I needed to see this."
>>30790201Hug her. She didn't mess up, you did.
>>30790201>RD show her some legit love her by ruffling her hair.
>>30790201Cry, it is okay. Cry into the arms of someone who has feelings for you without the control you possess.
>>30790201Weep openly.
>>30790201Congratulations Queen! You have finally learned your lesson and are ready to be welcomed to the afterlife! Now slough off that mortal coil and slip over to your just reward!
>>30790201Eat your mummy to gain its power.I bet it tastes like beef jerky
>>30790201Just cause your servants don't love you doesn't mean you're not a Queen! Just look at Rena and Raindrops. They like you even when you didn't know you were being a mean Queen. Hissy likes you, too, right?Just stay the Queen! Use your powers to help people for real this time, though. There is no reason to be sad. After all, being sad would ruin your perfect complexion! One of your good points is you don't let stuff like this get you down!
If you think about it, QotW is just a kid that was robbed of her childhood. Her first death was when she was still just a child and as far as she knows, she has reincarnated at her current age ever since then. Nobody has ever bothered to teach her these things, they just keep beating her up and killing her for it and she can't even learn from what she did wrong because she forgets every single time.Queen...Queen live a hard life(s)
>>30790201You really should write about this in your journal so that you don't just die and start making the same mistakes all over again.
>>30790300But how do you help people with mind control? It's a totally evil power.
>>30790300Hissy is totally mind controlled.
>>30790318>>30790313>>30790201be SURE to write this shit down
"It is okay... I think I needed this."RD: "You really aren't a bad person, Queen. You just need to learn to let people love you the old fashioned way. It takes a bit of work but I think you can do it. I mean, you mind controlled me once but I like you.""Really?">Raindrops takes off her glasses.RD: "Really, I do. You're very funny and naturally charismatic. I think if you worked at it you could be a real ruler.">She hugs the Queen of the World.>The two embrace for some time before the Queen breaks their hug.>She looks around the room for a while.I need to avoid having this happen again. If what you say is true I am no longer immortal. And I no longer desire this false worship.Perhaps instead of slaves I can hire maids and butlers? That would be better.I have plenty of gold.I'm not sure if I want to take anything from here though.
>>30790320I think Hissy is more a magical construct or something?
>>30790319If I had someone to mind control me to not feel my migraines, I would be very appreciative.
>>30790329TAKE EVERYTHING.It is yours after all.
>>30790329Hiring Rena as a maid seems to make sense to me. Or just a bunch of maids.And are you sure you don't want anything at all? It is your past, even if it isn't happy.
>>30790329Write down what you learned today. Hire someone to remind you things. Hire a butler and a maid, buy a house. Use your mind control to cure addictions.
>>30790319Mind control bad people into willingly going to jail before releasing them from your control so that crazy motherfuckers like Antihero don't just murder their asses
>>30790329It wouldn't really be graverobbing. It is your tomb after all.
>>30790329In a sense, the you in the tomb is gone. It's an old life, one you don't remember. You should leave her rest with her toys. Maybe slit open the stitches on her eyes and mouth. Give her the candy or something.Poor thing could use some comfort.
>>30790201well, Rena didn't
>>30790329HER GLASSES ARE OFF.MAKE HER TELL YOU HOW SHE BEAT YOU.JUST ONE LAST TIME. IT'LL BE FINE.Or actually ask her instead. She might actually say.
>>30790329Well, not to be weird, but I'm sure there are people out there that -want- to be mind controlled. And paying them is basically the ethical way to control people nowadays.You could still use your powers for evil though, just be sure not to keep them under your charm for very long.
>>30790341>>30790319I'd also like someone to mindcontrol me into being able to do things instead of sitting around being sad all day
>>30790329Take your childhood toys, so that you never forget what you learned here today.Either leave the rest or donate it to a museum.
>>30790360Ooooh. Good idea!
>>30790329Bring Hissy and Raindrops. Leave everything else, it belongs to another you. Actually, take a quick look around to see if there happens to be a spare Magical Girl gem thingie lying around to replace Raindrops nearly broken one, or something to fix hers with. But everything else leave.
>>30790329>Perhaps instead of slaves I can hire maids and butlers? That would be better.>I have plenty of gold.>I'm not sure if I want to take anything from here though.If you're still feeling upset, use the hordes of gold HERE to hire the new maids and butlers.If you feel like this horded gold was acquired illegitimately in some way, think of it as slowly returning that wealth back to the people in a way you deem more moral.It doesn't do anybody any good just sitting around here waiting for looters....just don't use it all at once and deflate the value of currency entirely. That's probably a bad idea, even if it it's a BAD bad idea that will probably get you recognition from the Villain Association.
>>30790329Hey, ask if you can have those glasses. It'll be a sign to others that you don't want to control anyone anymore, and a safety net in case you feel tempted.
>>30790329Why not? Doesn't this stuff all belong to you, basically? I mean, it's your tomb. They buried you with it, even if they didn't put your most precious possessions in your sarcophagus.You could always make a will and say to return everything to your tomb and to give your final corpse a proper mummification/sarcophagus in it. Also, probably most of your other stuff.Also get someone to put new traps in or seal off the place.
>>30790411>Queenie with glassesANON NOOOOOO
>>30790329I think you could become a hero if you wanted. You've already done a few heroic things, right? You helped Sparkle with crowd control when she was fighting the daemon. If nothing else, you could help heroes train to resist mind control.You know a lot about ancient languages. Maybe you could get into archaeology?
>>30790329Remember to stay with Raindrops when you get back to the city in case one or more of your ex-servants decides they want revenge on you for their forced servitude.
>>30790411Fucking genuis dot gif
>>30790411ANON YEEEEEEEEES
>>30790329Leave all that stuff here. Write down what you learned today, and remember where this place is.You can come by once in a while to clear your head and at least take care off it.Also, you need some friends to keep you company. Ask Raindrops if she'd like to spend some time with you.Maybe as a roomie? Get a smaller apartment, and live there with someone who can teach you how to be a proper queen.
>>30790329Rena has a robotic maid in training, perhaps you could hire her to work for you part time? She'd double as bodyguard and since she is a robot, you can't mind control her.
>>30790431>Raindrops & Queen: Archaeologist Adventurers Extraordinaire!I'd watch it.
>>30790329Raindrops looks like an older Rena, doesn't she?
>>30790411Only wear the glasses if you put on a loose button up transparent white silk blouse and thigh hugging black skirt with fishnets to matchsecretary would probably be a real good look on queenreal goodway too good
>>30790411A fine symbolic gesture.
>>30790329Well, think of it this way, you could just leave all this treasure here, where it's not doing anything but gathering dust, or you could try and make something good with it.
>>30790329Maybe you should work as a maid. You've been a queen all your life; it would be good for you to learn how life is like for commoners, wouldn't it?
>>30790463aon my dick can't take thisanonanon pls larro pls draw this detailed
>>30790411Brilliant! Just imagine queenie giving someone a /suggestive look/ over them.
>>30790449also, robots don't age
>>30790487Please oh god this is too much
>>30790329This is very important my Queen, repeat after me, "My dearest nemesis, truly none other is worthy of bearing my royal heir. I seriously hor your bullshit magic powers will allow that, because somehow I'm making it happen!...if, you know, you'd be interested in me that way?"
>>30790329naw gurl u still immortalotherwise you never woulda reincarnatedjust make sure to write these revelations down in your tome of memories
>>30790329HOLD HER HAND!It's egg time~
>>30790539Powers don't disappear immediately.
Why is everyone saying she lost her immortality when it was her teleportation that she lost?
>>30790582Because she was stabbed twice or something?
>>30790582Are you suggesting we should test this
>>30790582We have no confirmation that she didn't lose ALL her powers.Also, has anyone realized we can't really kill the cat now?
>>30790582One power lost per strike. She was hit twice.
>>30790600We'd probably need some powerful magic to counteract reincarnation. Or find a way to disrupt the reincarnation ritual.
>>30790615Is that true though? We don't know anyone who has lost more than one power. It could just be one power per encounter, or one power forever.
>>30790626We also don't know anyone else who's been hit more than once, so better safe than sorry.Except maybe the Monster, but we didn't really see the fight.
>>30790600>We have no confirmation that she didn't lose ALL her powers.She totally didn't do the super strength or mind control or Hissy at all during this session, did she?
>>30790582I don't really know. She reincarnated after he killed her, so...doesn't that strongly imply that she kept it?
>>30790600So, the constant use of her powers this thread isn't proof?
>>30790600We don't know that the cat actually retains the powers it steals in any kind of useable form over time.
>>30790626We also don't know anyone else that was stabbed twice AND we like Queenie, so we don't want to play schrodinger's cat with her.
I think I will leave the stuff here. I know I would be very upset if someone disturbed my things. But first I must make sure I get a proper burial.>Queen of the world fixes her old body up. She lays down better fabric, very carefully snips away the threads sealing her eyes and lips, and places her most cherished items around the small queen.>Once they body is truly laid to rest she leaves with Raindrops, resetting all the traps and sealing all the doors. No one but her will ever disturb this tomb.>Outside the two of them start to head back home. The Queen borrows Raindrops glasses saying that she doesn't even want to accidentally mind control someone.RD: "So, ready to head on back?""Actually... I was wondering if you would allow me to accompany you? I need to write down what I've learned and think. Perhaps I can even be of some help? I know of many old languages."RD: "That'd be great! So long as you don't mind sleeping in a tent and all that.""It will suffice for now peasant. I mean, Peasant Raindrops."I think I will stay with her for a bit. She intrigues me and helped me out a lot. Good work deserves a good reward. What better reward is there than to have me assist her?Then when I return... I shall see.
>>30790672The cat implied Rena would retain her vampire healing for long enough after the stab that she'd not die. This implies that power loss isn't instantaneous.
>>30790672Rena didn't die after being impaled and losing her vampire abilities. Same sort of thing, I guess.
>>30790682dawwww
>>30790682>Veil>Glassesp-please excuse me. I'll be in my bunk.
>>30790672Rena was told that her vampire powers would keep her from dying when she was attacked, even though those powers are what QK intended to steal in the first place.It's pretty clearly a gradual loss of ability rather than outright removal immediately.Amusingly, this would mean that if QotW HADN'T died quickly from her wounds, it's entirely possible she wouldn't have been able to reincarnate from them at all.
>>30790682and now I can sleepI doubt we'll be seeing them for a while though
>>30790682>Queenie with glassesI need to leave before I have a heart attack.
>>30790705He didn't want to kill her, and the powers are apparently drained over time.So she had her vampiric regeneration for a while, before she became a normal human again.
>>30790682There had better be another egg in the future for this couple, because my heart just fucking exploded from joy.
>>30790682D'aww.All the best in your travels, Queenie.
>>30790682The best
>>30790682Why do I feel like this is going to lead to Queenie going through Raindrops' attempted translations and loudly declaring her foolishness? After all, she mixed up squiggle squiggle dog with squiggle squiggle jackal!
>>30790682Great going Queenie! Now you just need to start working on Peasant Raindrops fashion sense.
>>30790582Check Larro's twitter. There's a picture with the description "The Cat Creature taking advantage of some stolen powers after their death"
>>30790682Now if only someone would gently detangle Raindrops' hair for her...
>>30790714Also remember Bridgette turned back into a human after she got cut. Had she not passed out from blood less, she may very well have been stuck in bat form right now.
>>30790811So that how he avoids dying. Makes sense.
Thanks again for reading everyone, hope you enjoyed it! I'm in the process of getting a new job so the next thread may be delayed until the weekend or next week. As always check the twitter for updates.>>30790811I can confirm that Queen did lose both teleportation and Reincarnation. There is a delay between the cut and the actual losing of powers.
>>30790682Make sure to release all your mindslaves back home before you go off soul searching
>>30790855She already did.
>>30790852Is there a way to regain stolen powers?
>>30790852Thanks for running Larro, it's always super satisfying to follow a character development arc like the Queen's.
>>30790852Thanks for running man, awesome thread as always.See you next time.
>>30790855She already did that. See >>30790201.
>>30790872Of course.
>>30790682Now you just need to turn those anti-mindcontrol glasses into stylish sunglasses. Trendy AND practical for desert exploration!
the exact amount of power lost has varied a bit, rena lost all of her vampire powers, but MM only lost her shape shifting. presumably there is some pattern to it we can't see, so we don't know if the queen is still immortal. we might want to look into some kind of non destructive test to see if her reincarnation is still working or not.
>>30790897Magical Vampire with Tech Upgrades and actual training: HAPPENING
>>30790907I think it was because Rena lost the source of her powers, and wasn't actually a full vampire.
>>30790907>so we don't know if the queen is still immortal.see >>30790852>I can confirm that Queen did lose both teleportation and Reincarnation.
>>30790965balls.
>>30790984He also said she may be able to get them back.But maybe it's better this way. She will never forget another cherished memory and this way, she will get to share her life with someone who legitimately cares for her and follow her into the next life instead of being forced to relive the cycle of oblivion over and over again
>>30791017More like she'll die immediately due to not being used to being mortal
>>30791051She already is mortal, anon.Besides, that's why Raindrops is there to look out for her.
>>30791051She really hates dying because it means memory loss and she already tries really hard to avoid that.
>>30790897Rena is going to be a monster.
Does this mean we won't be fighting the Transcendent One?
>>30791017With her book she learns new things every reincarnation. It's actually a pretty sweet type of eternal life. Nothing ever gets boring, but you don't lose everything when you die either.
>>30791132But it still comes with all the trappings of a normal eternal life, such as everyone you ever loved dying and leaving you all alone in the end.Maybe it's just because her whole memory situation reminds me way too much of Crystal Chronicles and holy fuck was that a depressing game. I fucking lost it when the old man of the Striped Bandits died
>>30790852Thanks for running and good luck with the new job.
>>30784698I think hair-sexual is too strong a word for drops.
>>30786682>tried for Female, and I am Absolute crap at female anatomy,There's actually not as much difference as you'd think.Especially when it comes to Rena.
>>30786986yes. suuuuure you are.
dear queen:please stop having such a sad life.
>>30788508Specifically designed for someone arrogant like Queenie, to kill their entourage?
>>30790329>I'm not sure if I want to take anything from here though.Place the girls mementos back into the Sarcophagus with her.
>>30790704>>30790705Bridgette is another example: She didn't lose her shapeshifing immediately either.
>>30791158>Meh Gaj
>>30791892>to kill their entourage?More likely to kill Queenie herself. Had she brought her entourage, she likely would have sent them in first, so the best traps would be the ones designed to kill Queen while leaving her innocent thralls untouched. Of course, that all depends on whether or not they knew about her reincarnation abilities or not.
So how much do you think a hero (or ex hero) gets paid for redeeming a villain?Raindrops is going to be loaded.
>>30792341>implying she didn't do it purely for the touslesQueen hair is a hell of a drug
>>30792341I think Raindrops is well past the point of doing it for the money.
>>30789884queen had a real bad time first go round
>>30793329all things considered she's surprisingly well adjusted....I wonder where she got mind control powers?
>>30793474a cat
>>30791520>I think hair-sexual is too strong a word for drops.What would be a better word?
>>30793604...I'm still trying to think of one.

>>30793856so, this is queen AND princess sparkle who are both away from the city for a while.Soon rena will be the only on-duty hero/villain
>>30793891Nah, there's loads.Omen, Barrington, Caffornicator, Rider, Balloon Man, Hourglass...Yeah, no-one'll even notice.
>>30793976quick, let's have a character development thread with all of them ending in them having heartwarming character resolution and being away from the city.
