You take a step out and silently shut the doors behind you. You tiptoe over the marble-tiled floor. Your bare feet give off a little patter of flesh on smooth stone.

You soon make it out of the view of the stairway. Mission accomplished. All that's left is to reach your room at the end of the hall.

You stride forward triumphantly, part of you wondering why she put your room at the end of the hall, and her room smack dab in the middle of everything. Perhaps she wanted something like this to happen? Something like this is going too far, right? Although it's-

Your thoughts are cut off by a door opening in front of you.

You set your arms akimbo and stride down the hall with confidence. They can't make fun of you if you're confident! Your brother told you that once, so it must be true!

The scruffy dwarf druid known as Flugelhorn closes his door behind himself and turns to look at you.

He looks at you.

You look at him.

He no doubt notices that his height is around the same height as your legs. The dorfy engineer turns around and heads back into his room with a slam of his door.

You look to the side, posing like Superman. Confidence is your ultimate shield. You are a king of your domain! Nothing can stop you! You are the emperor, and your new clothes are rockin' everything!

That is when you hear a cough behind you.

You swing around to see none other than Confidence, the wolf-fang assassin. She is first raid leader and King's best IRL friend. You liked her well enough, except for the times she decides to be a bitch.

“Missing something?” She asks, looking you up and down.

“Not a thing!” You announce, “Why would I hide such an amazing body as this?”

“Because no one wants to know that you're that small.” She holds up her fingers to emphasize the size.

Your confidence is broken. Your arms flop to the side and you look down at your feet. Inside your mind you whisper, It gets bigger...

She turns and walks away, as if she did nothing wrong. What a bitch.

You turn back and quickly run off to your room, closing the door quietly behind you.

>>31941090
You let out a sigh. You're not that small, right? You don't know. You look down, lost in thought, until you suddenly remember.

Breakfast!

You go through your personal chest and pull out your normal armor set, the Failed God Gi. You put on the golden-cloth vest, and then hold out the pants. Glorious, glorious pants! It's been too long! On go the pants, and you tie the belt around it.

All is right with the world.

You take a moment to bask in the comforting glory of high tier raiding cloth. Such freedom.

You turn around and travel back into the hallway and down the stairway, entering the kitchen. There was the million gold man himself, KeeperFury, the Guardian Chef and discoverer of Real Food.

“We're out of peppercorn!” KeeperFury complained.

“That's impossible!” complained the guild Harvester, SheepShip, “I just got us, like, twelve crates of corn!”

“Not corn! Peppercorn!”

While the two are distracted you help yourself to some bacon and eggs.

“Corn is corn! Who cares!?”

“No! Peppercorn is from a different plant!”

“Well, take the corn and put pepper on it then!”

“Peppercorn IS pepper!”

“Why didn't you just say that!?”

“Well I'm sorry for thinking you're smart enough to know what peppercorn is!”

“No one knows what peppercorn is! Isn't that right, Vert?”

The two look to you. You munch on the bacon still in your mouth, deciding what to say.

[ ] Everyone knows what peppercorn is.
[ ] I had no idea.
[ ] So how were sales yesterday?
[ ] Other.

“Everyone knows what peppercorn is.” You reply. “I mean, it has pepper right in the name.”

“Yeah, well, fuck you too!” SheepShip shouts before stomping off.

“What an idiot.” KeeperFury comments.

“Yeah.” You reply, “Everyone knows pepper comes from peppercorn seeds.”

The chef sighs. “Kids today.” He scratches his head, “No offence, Vert, but you need to go watch some Alton Brown or something.”

“Who?” You ask.

“He's like Billy Nye, but for cooking.”

“Who's Bill Nye?”

Keeper stares at you, a look of absolute disappointment.

You ask again. “Who's Bill N-”

“Stop. Just stop. Let me believe in a future worth living.”

You look down at your sandled feet, and then back up the the chef. “So, what were the sales like yesterday?”

“Something like 5k.” He responds, “We're going through ingredients faster than we can get them; I don't think our supplies are going to last much longer. We have maybe enough for one last day of sales before we're going to need to outsource our harvesting. Sheep's good, but he's not feed a couple hundred people a day good.”

You hear a serious, feminine voice behind you. “We'll just up have to increase the price, then.” You turn to see KingAzebo in her full Guardian armor, the metal so shiny it was practically luminescent. She takes a helping of meats and eggs, eating it with such proper posture and elegance. You keep a straight face, but inside you are practically gushing about how amazing she looks.

“Vertigo.” She says, meeting your eyes with hers, “There is something I need to speak to you about after breakfast.”

Although her face and tone has not changed, you can tell, somewhere in her eyes, she intends to dole out punishment for some reason.

Thats... Thats not what he means by is vertigo a man or not.
Taking it like a man means taking the punishment silently, and saying is he a man or not means is he gonna take it like a man or not.

Still writing, but...

>>31942866
When it was asked whether he was a woman or a man, I posted with a picture under a spoiler, the picture was of a male character in thong armor, so to speak. I thought that was enough to hint at the fact that he was, in fact, a man.

If you're talking about the Dice God thing in that post, I wrote that because one of the posters said, "A man has his pride." It was written in response to that.

I dunno, why don't you tell us?

>>31942248
“Okay.” You respond. You look downtroddenly at your empty plate.

King gives you a soft kiss on the cheek and whispers, “It's nothing too terrible.”

The kiss made you feel a bit better.

You wiggled around a bit in the chair, waiting for her to finish her food.

When she finishes, she places her plate with the other dirty dishes and says, “You have outdone yourself, Keeper.”

“One of us had to git gud, King.”

The two share a chuckle. You are not sure of the joke, but you are starting to feel a bit jealous of Keeper. You never wanted to be the jealous type, but god damn it, if the shoe fits.

You stand, point your finger, and prepare to launch into a diatribe, but King spins around, grabs your arm, and drags you out of the room, up the stairs, and back into her room.

She stops you in front of a mirror and commands, “Stay here.” Before wandering off to her armoire.

You could feel it.

The horrid, crushing tyranny of the Korean thong.

You have no idea what you did wrong!

Why, cruel gods!? Why have you done this!?

She comes and instructs you. “Take off your clothes.”

There it was. Goodbye, sweet pants. I hardly knew you. Fresh parting is such a sorrow!

You remove your raiding gear, now naked again except for your underwear.

“Should I take these off too?”

“No.” She responds. “Put this on.”

>>31943198
She hands you a frilly pink dress.

You want to refuse, but you know you can't win.

You slowly bring the dress over you and put it on. You look in the mirror.

“I look like a man in a dress.” You comment.

“Give me a second.” She responds, pulling out a brush.

“Is... Is that a hairstyle chang-”

“Yes.” She replies. She begins to brush your hair, making it grow longer and longer.

“I don't think I-”

“If you don't like it, we can change it back later. Right now I need you to look good.”

“What is this for, exactly?”

“I'm taking you to a party.”

“OH, CAUSE THAT'S A THING I WANT!” You shout, “YES, BECAUSE I JUST LOVE DRESSING UP LIKE A LITTLE GIRL FOR RANDOM STRANGERS!”

“That's good, because there are going to be a lot of people there.” She gives you one last brush. “There. Now just a little bit of makeup and you'll be perfect.”

“Please no.”

“Now, hold still. If you move around too much you'll look ugly and I'll punish you for real.”

You hold still as she goes to work on your face, painting it with all kinds of things. After a while, you just stop caring. Your reputation is ruined already, why even care anymore?

“Done.” King says, stepping out of the way between you and the mirror. “How does it look?”

You look at the image in the mirror. A very feminine figure stood there, with such a cute face. “Is that me?”

“Don't you look so cute?” She whispers.

You didn't want to say yes, but you certainly felt that way.

So, our brother is dating a girl into feminization.

>>31943222
Oh man, Ambrosius' face when he sees this will be epic.

>>31943222
She reaches down your dress. “Would you do you?” King asks, “Because I'd do you.”

Your face turns crimson. Your blood starts to pump everywhere. Her hand moves over the skirt of the dress, just over where your crotch is. “I... uhhh...”

She pushes down. “Are you excited?”

You whisper. “Yes.”

She whispers back. “Too bad.” She turns around and goes back to her armoire. “Now, where did I put my parade armor?”

You turn around. “Seriously!?”

“Well, if we are to practice the waltz before going, we'll need to start now.” She begins flinging clothing and armor out by the drawer load. “Did I sell it? I think I sold it. Oh well. I'm going out to buy another set. Feel free to do whatever you want until then, unless you want to come along?”

“I'll go with you, I guess.” You respond, not too enthusiastic, “Let me just take this dress off.”

“And ruin your makeup?” She asks, somewhat hostile, “No. You're going to wear that dress all day.”

“O...oh...”

She grabs you by the hand. “Come on.”

The two of you travel out to the town. Tall, ruined buildings block out the sun, and snow gracefully falls from the sky. The ever-winter that had cursed the land to long ago is still in effect. You, however, are pretty certain that it was really due to an error that happened whenever the weather changed, so they locked the weather to snowing.

You look down at your feet, creating little footprints in the freshly fallen snow.

“Something the matter?” King asks.

“I want to die.” You reply.

“But you look so cute!”

“I would rather be hung from a noose and come back to life only to be die the same way … repeatedly.”

She looks a bit saddened by your statement.

“I just... would rather keep this in the bedroom.” You whisper.

“Okay.” She responds with a sigh, “What if you do this for me today, and then never again.”

You whisper back, “Fine.”

Neither of you appear to be very happy right now. There is a long, awkward silence between you two. All that is to be heard is the clacking of horse hooves on the ruined asphalt.

“We're here.” She says, pointing towards a shop sign. The words Frills and Thrills: Armorer and Tailor.

You do not respond.

She sighs and leads you into the shop.

>>31944253
“Ladies, ladies, ladies!” The shop keeper shouts when the door closes behind you two. “Oh, such pretty ladies! Let me guess!” He sizes the two of you up. “Thrills for you.” He points to King. “And frills for you.” He points to you.

“I'm sorry, but no.” King responds, “I am going to a fancy party and I need something to match my friend here.” She motions to you.

“Ah! Yes! Big, poofie dress!”

“Actually, I was looking for a suit. Parade armor if you have it.”

“Oh ho! Yes, yes! I understand!” The merchant nods his head, “Tell me, what color do you want it in?”

You mind drifts off. They continue their conversation, but you would rather not be here now. This is what you get for choosing the thin body type. You knew you should have chosen muscular all those years ago.

“Does that sound okay?” King tugs on your arm.

“Huh? Oh yeah.” You respond.

You go back to thinking. You can't help but look out the window at the massive stone lions down the street. What is a shop like this doing so close to the Grand Library? You wonder if the Man in Black has returned to his post, or if he's still off wherever he is.

“Something wrong?” King asks.

“I'm just thinking about researching some stuff.” You reply. “Just some MiB stuff.”

“Well, I have my parade armor and we don't need that much practice with dance.”

You look back to the Grand Library. “I think I'll go research some things.”

You leave the shop, stomping through the snow until you reach the steps of the Grand Library. The massive stone lions on either side welcome you in.

The sprawling main room opens up before you, books lining every wall.

You walk past the different people actually reading books and pick up The Clandestine Story of Power.

You open it and then close it.

Rushing over to another book, The Encyclopedia of Free Nations, and open it, only to close it and put it back.

Once more for another book, The Book of Twelve Wisdoms.

Finally, The History of Man.

You open the final book, only to see the strangest thing. A dick-butt crudely scrawled within the pages, along with the word Swag repeated over and over. You stare at this for a while, trying to figure out what this means.

Normally something in the books change whenever the Man in Black has done something, but usually a paragraph is added to the end.

You close the book and begin walked up the stairway backwards. You look up to the window, and you see the shadow man standing there. You breathe a sigh of relief. So long as he is there, he isn't doing anything, after all.

>>31945134
That is when he turns to you. You are not sure how you know he turned to you, though. His form is not black, not really, but instead, it is like a hole burnt into film. Your mind cannot comprehend his existence, instead the horrid form which you have thought to see what not what he really was, but was instead your illequipped mind trying to carve out the image from your memory. Your image of him was blotted out like a bad memory, but much like a bad memory, once reminded, the horrors come pouring back!

“Hey!” King shakes you.

You break eye contact with the Man in Black. You are shaking. Does he know? What does he know? What is going on? Wat?

“What?” You ask.

“Did you know that the word pepper comes from a south Indian language known as Dravidan and was specifically the word for long pepper, which is a completely different species of the pepper we use today?”

“Uhh...” You blink at her, “No. I... I didn't.”

“So, now that that's done, are you finally ready to leave? If we spend any more time here, we'll be late for the party, and then I'll have to punish you for real.” She gives you a sly smile, but you ignore it.

You look outside. The sun is going down already.

She speaks up again, “But I don't have to if you're not in the mood.”

How long have you been standing here?

“Vertigo?”

>"Okay, so the Man In Black is like Cthulhu if he ran the Illuminati. He controls these guys called the Luxians who do this crazy, 'If we can control the market, we can blah blah blah' kinda shit. Pretty much every Halloween they jack up the prices and we run around undoing his stupid ass plan, then he appears, kills everyone and disappears. He's supposed to be able to plan for anything but Adventurers just keep kicking his shit in, so I'm not that worried. Also, when he kills you you don't lose any xp, so it's like a free warp out of the instance. Anyway, so there I am, touching all the books, going up the stairs backwards and everything, but when I look through the window he's not there. Think they finally gave him his own raid or something? They probably did cause the Halloween events were getting really repetitive."

This was the initial description of him. The brother(who we currently are) mentions touching some books and walking backwards up the stairs to see the MiB. This must've been what we did.

Hey, hey I bet I know what's going to happen. Now that MiB has brainblasted Vertigo he'll be able to manipulate him into helping cause the food riots so that MiB can seize power all sneaky-like.

Ahh. Thanks anon! It all makes sense.

But we did see him. Yet we reported he is missing. What controlled us?

>>31945703
This is the worst option. MiB is a leet speaker.

>>31945730
Hard to do creepy scratchy voice effects over the internet

>>31945665
The reason that people don't lose any XP is because MiB is taking their bodies and send out duplicates.

>>31945759
The paranoia.

It never stops!

>>31945730
Vertigo has mentioned that Ambrosius must have reached Ekechi 51 by now, which is where we were last thread.

So Vertigo reported him missing the first time, because he WAS missing.

Vertigo did the sequence again to check and see if he'd come back. And he had. And mindfucked us a little bit with his presence.

>>31945730
>But we did see him. Yet we reported he is missing.
I think last time Vertigo looked he genuinely wasn't there, and now he's back because he's done with whatever nefarious thing he was doing when he took a walk the other day.

>>31945812
>>31945795
Ahhh. I see.

“How long have I been standing here!?” You yell.

King looks a bit shocked. “I... I don't know. You're the one who asked me to go look up facts about peppercorn!”

Your grab your head. It is in such horrific pain. “What... What was I...”

“Are you okay?”

“I... Yeah. Yeah, let's just get out of here.” You try to takes a step down, but your legs give out.

You fall forward.

King opens her arms to catch you, but you tumble in such an awkward way that she only manages to slow your decent. You stare at the carpet-covered steps your head had not-so gracefully landed at.

“Are you okay!?” King exclaims.

“I...” You try to comprehend what just happened. “I think my legs gave out?” You wiggle your toes, “Well, it's not a spinal thing, I guess.” You don't quite understand what just happened. It's almost like it didn't happened.

“Can you move your legs?”

You try to move your legs, but they feel so heavy and tired, as if you had run non-stop all day. “Barely.” You respond. “I don't think I can walk.”

King kneels down and picks you up in her arms. “Okay. Let's just go home.”

You look down, visibly embarrassed that you are now being carried away. “Will this day ever end?”

She remains silent as she carries you out to the snow covered streets.

Your eyes meet hers.

She smiles. “You're like my pretty princess.”

“Not now.”

“You wound me, princess! I have gone to such lengths to rescue you for the horrors of academic research!”

“STOP!”

She goes quiet again.

You feel like an asshole.

Once more neither of you are happy.

She brings you into the guild hall. Everyone has assembled for dinner. You can hear the laughter and foolery happened from within the mess hall and kitchen.

She takes you upstairs and into her room, laying you down on the large, white bed.

You look at each other, but neither of you say anything.

She turns to leave. “I'll go get you something to eat.”

“Can I take the dress off?” You ask.

“Yeah.” She says, sounding defeated.

She leaves.

You are left alone in the darkened room. With the loss of the sun, there is also a loss of light in this room.

You look down at the dress; she did say until the end of the day, so no sense taking it off now.

You lie back on the bed, the pillows cradling you head.

Maybe you're just making a big deal out of nothing. It makes her happy, that's what matters most, right?

Why did this shit have to be so confusing.

You hear a knock before King opens up the door to the torch-lit hallway. “I have food.” She pauses. “Want me to light the torches?”

“Okay.” You respond.

She sets a plate down on the night stand next to you then goes about lighting up the room.

“I'm...” You begin to say, “I'm sorry I made you miss the party.”

“It's okay.” She responds, “It was a stupid party anyways. I just wanted to show you my princess.”

“Well, I don't want to be your princess ...” You pause, “Out side of the bedroom...” Your face feels crimson again.

“Well...” She whispers, “We're in the bedroom.”

You look down at your fingers, twiddling your thumbs.

“You would not take advantage of a princess without the use of her legs, would you, Lady Knight?”

She smiles, “A princess? No. But I prince in a dress? That is another story.” She leans in and kisses you. “Feeling better?”

You open your mouth to speak, but suddenly the earth shakes and your head feels as if it is splitting open. Various colors of light flash outside.

“Looks like the party is getting started.” King says, going to the window.

Can she not see? The colors. The lights. They all have meaning. They are a code that have come pounding upon your mind like some kind of invader.

You vomit.

You vomit the same incomprehensible matter that the Man in Black is made from.

You fall to the floor.

END OF SESSION

Next time: Hangmen on the loose!

And Ambrosis gets a call from his brother.

Interesting thread. Shame Zack couldn't just sissy up like a champ.
also good use of taking advantage of /tg/s natural curiosity to force the encounter.

And now our brother and his guild will most likely be working against us since we know how to activate the gates and unite the country.

>>31946791
not really, now king has seen it, I wonder if she will have a similar reaction.

>>31946848
Nah, she didn't see him before, we probably just 'looked' as if we vomited, but to her we didn't vomit. However, we can still see the crazy anti matter that's probably going to kill everything.

>>31946848
Maybe she didn't, maybe only he can see it.

>>31946848
>king has seen it
Silly anon. Corpses can't see.

>>31946914
Of course he's the only one who can see it. He's trapped in MiB's world, has been since he looked at him.

Everything happening now is just his mind trying to build a comforting illusion to hold the madness at bay.

he actually wants to be a pretty princess

>>31946916
Well then.

>>31946916
Once Ambrosius' party reaches The Big Apple, they see a welcome sign with the name scratched out and replaced by "Event Horizon"

ok, since we know that we can see party member's health in-game, can we also see buffs and debuffs? if so, I wonder what Vertigo's status screen looks like.

So while I should be horrified by this, the only thing my mind keeps coming back to is how Ambrosius is probably going to end up like a slightly less balding version of Rick by the end of this.

>Ok Vertigo, I've identified the part of your body and/or soul corrupted by ultimate evil, so I'm just gonna slap this lever on you and turn it to "off", Ready? ONETWOTHREEGO!
>Aww jeez Bro, did it work? I still feel pretty corrupted and stuff.
>Shit, I messed up the lever placement, I meant to attach it to the "ultimate evil" part but I attached it to the "sexuality" part. You're like, hard gay now, since I haven't figured out how to make True Levers as anything other than binary states yet.
>Can you, uh, fix it?
