"I'd have thought you'd have noticed that Marianne's middle is every bit as flowery as mine is the first time you heard it," Luciana says, shrugging.
"Maybe he's not into flowers, Luciana," Marianne replies.
"Umm, that's not it," you reply.
"Hm?" Luciana turns to you.
"I don't think I've ever actually heard her full name before."

Upon hearing that, both Luciana and Marianne stare at you as if you've gone crazy.

"You mean to tell me that you've been serving as Marianne's bodyguard for an entire month now but you don't even know her full name?" Luciana gasps. "I mean, she's the Crown Princess of the entire kingdom!"
"Then again, I doubt he's had much reason to get to know him before he took on this job," Marianne sighs. "And I don't think I properly introduced myself back when we first met, either."
"Ah, I see," Luciana says, crossing her arms and nodding her head. "It's because of your poor manners."
"Shut up."

"Umm, I really don't think it's -that- big a deal," you say with a nervous smile. "So how about we just wait for our food to get here, and-"
"No no no no," Luciana shakes her head. "That won't do at all. There's like... protocol reasons and that sort of thing, you really should know."

With much grandeur, Luciana clears her throat.

"My dear Reinhold, you are under the employ of the Crown Princess of Granache, Marianne Primevère Granache," Luciana declares.
"Yes, yes," Marianne sighs. "And now you know my horrible secret."
"Oh, but there -is- a secret behind her name!" she giggles.

As Marianne realizes what her best friend is implying, she starts to sink down into her chair.

"Not this again..."

"What secret?" you ask. "Is it something bad?"
"It's not bad," Luciana replies with a wide grin. "in fact I think it's rather cute!"
"Please ignore her," Marianne groans, completely slumped into her chair. You've never seen her like this before, it kind of makes you forget that she's a Princess at all.
"C'mon, don't be like that!" Luciana nudges her friend with her elbow, but she doesn't move from her inactive state. "Maybe one day me and Reinhold will have a story like that! I mean, I wish I had a story for my name past the light and flower themes..." she sighs.

"Yeah, I'd like to hear it," you say. "I mean, all I have is the one name, and there isn't much of a story to it besides that the Boss thought it sounded manly," you shrug.
"Whatever, I don't even care anymore," Marianne mumbles.
"Very well!" Luciana claps her hands. "Since we no longer have any opposition to me doing so..."

Once again, Luciana clears her throat in an exaggerated manner.

"According to what my mother told me, the King used to give Marianne's mother all kinds of different flowers when they were courting," Luciana says. "And after they finally got married and had her, there was a big fuss over what her middle name would be. Sir Vincent said that it should be some kind of rose, but Uncle Gregory said that it should be something that matched her hair color..."


>[2/?]

And then Reindad will be like, every morning:

"How it's going, volks?"

>>33810774

"...they tried asking her mother, but she didn't really care what the middle name was since she got to pick Marianne's first name," Luciana continues. "But Uncle Gregory's suggestion gave the King an idea, and he declared that Marianne's middle name would be 'Primevère' after the primrose. But not just -any- primrose, you see... his favorite of that type."
"Oh God," Marianne groans, covering her face with her hands.
"The -Francisca- Primrose," Luciana points her finger in the air. "You know... named for the axe," she says with a wicked grin.

.........now you understand why Marianne finds this story so embarrassing.

"I mean, isn't that just ADORABLE?" Luciana giggles. "Her father even found a way to fit his love of axes into the naming tradition of his daughter!"
"You're not going to find it so funny when Reinhold decides to name all of -your- children after swords," Marianne grumbles.

You decide not to say anything in response, instead just giving a nervous chuckle while Luciana teases and prods and taunts her best friend until the servants finally come out with your food. It seems that Marianne's maids must have told the cooking staff that Luciana and Takamaru were here as well, as enough trays were brought out for everyone.

And of course, today's breakfast is pancakes. Truly a wonderful way to start out the day.

Only a matter of time.

I did kind of think that resorting to modern cultivar names was a stretch, so I'm glad the name you actually used was only an oblique reference.

You kidding, right? She loved him until puberty hit and their sugary personalities came to a clash.

"So the guys in your family don't have any themes to their names?" you ask Marianne.
"No," she replies. "mostly they just get named for others, like how Sir Gregory named his firstborn son after Arnaud."
"Mother likes to tease him about naming his next one 'Celestine' so that he'll have the entire trio," Luciana laughs. "And if he and Aunt Ariane -do- decide to have another child, Marianne won't have any choice but to bury the -hatchet- since she loves babies sooooooo much!" she giggles.
"Luciana if you don't cut it out I will leave you here," Marianne says, glaring at her.

"Speaking of babies," you say in between bites of pancake, "do you plan on visiting the Wilhelms today?"
"Hm?" Luciana tilts her head. "Who?"
"They're some bakers in town who I know," Marinne replies. "And the wife ended up going into labor thanks to one of Reinhold's bad jokes."
"...wow, really?" she stares at you.
"Hey, that was an accident," you sigh. "And she was about to give birth at any moment when I said what I did."
"Sure," Marianne smirks. "But yes, they have a baby and I'd like to see how they're doing."
"And also buy up a bunch of their pastries," you say, giving her a thumbs-up.
"And especially buy up a bunch of their pastries," she nods. "Perhaps I'll get some for Father as well."

He must be the one who she gets her sweet tooth from.

"I have no idea how you can eat so many sweets without getting fat," Luciana sighs. "If I tried that, I'd get -so- fat..."
"And that's why you don't," Marianne says with a wicked grin. "You need to keep yourself looking good for your boyfriend, after all..."

Holy shit, Arch.

What a goddamn whirlwind.

I haven't seen the aftermath of the kiss yet but it seems like a real dick move to me. I wasn't too hot for Luci or Sylvie (though I prefer Luci a bit) but still...

>Luci, Rein's sensitive, you shouldn't push too hard.
Lol, I'm gonna push even harder.

>Sylvie, I'm not ready for a relationship, I'd appreciate you toning it down a little
jk, I'm gonna kiss the girl not toning it down at all tomorrow.

Rein and Luci are perfect for each other because they both seem like assholes at this point.

Also seems like this part of the quest is full of players who refuse to take any sort of responsibility for their actions. Hopefully that improves.

Anyway, just thanking /pgq/ for everything, hopefully the story doesn't end before I manage to catch up with it all...

While you concentrate on your delicious delicious food, the girls go on about Marianne's poor diet, the prospect of playing with Citrine's baby once she gives birth, how many children Luciana wants, and many many other things that neither you nor Takamaru really want to be privy to. You actually end up needing to get a second helping of pancakes in order to have something to keep your attention off of what they're talking about.

Luckily, the girl talk eventually comes to an end and the four of you begin the not-too-long trek to the front gate of the castle.


>keep quiet

>>33812129
>how many children Luciana wants, and many many other things that neither you nor Takamaru really want to be privy to.
Reinhold's a bad boyfriend

I'm guessing Nico has to work for it more, whereas Sylvie gets hax Vincent genetics

>>33812129
>keep quiet

>>33811958

I know that, but that wouldn't stop a girl.

Which confirms my theory that Theresa is Sylvie with a more aggressive personality and smaller boobs.

Eh, why did Sylvie assume she's less pretty than Luciana when she lost the Reinbowl? Just generic self-depreciation or is she actually insecure?

>>33812129
>and many many other things that neither you nor Takamaru really want to be privy to

Lewd.

>talk while you walk

"I bet you had a field day when your sister was a baby."

>>33812166

Considering that Nico could probably be a very good mage and swordie if she tried I say it's a fair trade.

Sylvie sees herself as "cute," while Marianne and Luciana are "pretty."


>writing

>>33812339
>Sylvie sees herself as "cute," while Marianne and Luciana are "pretty."

What about Nico, Melanie, Rana and Karel?

Come on, don't tell me the girls don't have an opinion on how Karel look.

>>33812198
>Considering that Nico could probably be a very good mage and swordie if she tried I say it's a fair trade.

I can see Nico coming round to her senses on those things given enough time, maybe not swording but probably magic. I mean, knighthood, Grandpa's Lance and some knighted-grandpa's-lance adventures can only be her end-game goal for so long and Nico doesn't seem the type who can be too content when not working towards something.
Her Mom's a mage, her Dad's a swordmage her grandpa probably used magic (I think), seems like with her "I can get a knighthood on lance alone" out of the way, she might reconsider taking up magic again after some time.

>>33812372
They think Karel is hot

>>33812372
Nicolette: pretty
Melanie: the cutest
Rana: pretty
Karel: oddly pretty boy

>>33812401

FTFY

>>33812373

By the time that happen she's likely to look older than her own mother for the rest of her life.

>>33812401
What to they think about Reinhold?

>>33812372
We should totally get the girls' opinions on Karel. While she's right there, obviously.

Speaking of Karel, I think a good way for her to strengthen her relationship with Emelio would be to reveal her identity to him. It's one hell of a secret, so telling him would show how much trust she's willing to place in Emelio. Of course, this would (somewhat) change how Emelio sees her. But past the initial hurdle, I don't think it'd be a problem.

Luciana: I won so who cares?

>>33812422
If you want to convince Nicolette to take up magic again, I can't think of a better way to do it.

Also, what >>33812373
said.

>>33812422
>she's likely to look older than her own mother
Yes, but most of the main casts children will probably end up looking older than Ariane.

>>33812443

Karel will never reveal her secret on her own.

>>33812466
>If you want to convince Nicolette to take up magic again, I can't think of a better way to do it.

Pretty sure Ariane nags her using that exact argument. But her daughter be stubborn.

Except whatever the hell Niklaus ends up creating.

That magic crystal frankenstein will live forever and look like a loli while doing it.

Marianne and Luciana continue to chat about nothing in particular as your little group continues down the hallways... until a bunch of guards goes running by, at least.

"Huh?" Luciana seems rather concerned as she watches them run past. "are they always this busy when you go out?"
"No," Marianne shakes her head. "But they don't seem to actually be on alert, so I guess it's nothing too important... eh?"

Peering down the hallway, you notice Arnaud walking alongside an unfamiliar man with spiky green hair and silver eyes.

"...Sir Anatole?" Marianne says as the two men approach.

"Princess Marianne!" the man who you assume is this 'Sir Anatole' says, cheerfully bowing to the Princess. "Long time no see, eh?"
"Yes, it's been at least a year," Marianne nods.
"And the guy standing next to you..." he turns to you, "...I take it you're Milien's replacement, right?"

Your gut reaction is to say something rude, but you catch yourself before you can. What happened with that piece of garbage is supposed to be a secret, after all...

"Uh, yeah," you nod.
"Anatole Marignac, at your service," he says, saluting you.
"Reinhold," you reply, saluting back.
"Er... what brings you here to the castle?" Marianne asks. "Last I heard, you were taking care of bandits over by the border to Perricone..."
"Well I -was-," he shrugs, "but I ended up chasing some guys over to the border with Marconetti and ran into a messenger from there in the process. Figured that I might as well give him an escort here, you know?"
"...a messenger from Marconetti?" Luciana gasps. "D- did something happen there?"

And while we're at it, what about the sizes of the countries? Marconetti feels like it'd be bigger than Granache, but that's just a guess.

>>33812721

"It's nothing serious," Arnaud says, patting her on the shoulder. "so you don't need to worry."
"...if you say so..." Luiana mumbles.
"And who might this lovely lady with the ebony hair be?" Sir Anatole says, eyeing up your girlfriend.
"This is my friend... Violette," Marianne replies.
"Ah, such a lovely name," he replies, leaning in closer.
"And she's -engaged-, so if you'd abstain from acting too forward..." Marianne says, glaring at him.

You, Takamaru, and Arnaud all break out into coughing fits at the same time. While that was a nice save on Marianne's part, it was also a bit... yeah. Way too soon.

"Whoa, far be it from me to edge into someone else's turf," Sir Anatole says, backing away from Luciana in a most cautious manner. "Congrats on that, I guess."
"Er..." Luciana mumbles, blushing profusely, "...thank you, I guess..."
"Anyways," Arnaud says, clearing his throat, "I was actually looking for you, Princess."
"Eh?" Marianne turns to him. "What for?"
"The subject of the messenger's letter appears to be of a great deal of importance, so your father felt that it would be good for you to have you along for when he actually speaks to him..."
"Wha-" Marianne stammers. "But we were just about to go out into the city, and-" she turns to you and Luciana with a look that makes you feel absolutely HORRIBLE. "Y... yes, I understand..." she says, now completely drained of all her prior energy.
"Er, I'm sure that your father would understand if you had prior plans," Arnaud says, immediately taking pity on her. "It was just an idea."
"No," she shakes her head. "I'm the Princess and I have responsibilities..."

Then she turns to you and Luciana.

"You can go on ahead to the carriage and tell Nicolette and Melanie that I won't be coming along," Marianne says.
"But you were-" Luciana stammers.
"It's okay, we can always go out some other time."

If it doesn't take long, we can head out slightly later, and if it does, it means we're not going to have to hear the whole long story a second time later on.

And besides, even if we end up leaving slightly later and meeting up with them in town, Melanie and Nicolette are going to be glad to have a bit of time to themselves.

Behold, a terrible crayon map.

Sounds good, let's just be sure to check in with lewdmaid and profanity guard.

Krassato is a boob.

Why do you have crayons in your room?

Wasn't a word-for-word dialogue suggestion, but sure, making sure not to slip up and blow her cover is probably worth keeping in mind.

Marianne decided it would be worth using Luciana's alias in front of this guy, so we might as well respect that choice. She wouldn't've done it for absolutely no reason.

>>33813198
Why would I not have crayons?

>>33813192

You're the boob.

>>33813158

Huh, seems like I pictured things wrong. Where is this on the larger continent?

>>33813198
Why wouldn't he?

>>33813215
Don't worry, we can both be boobs!

>>33813237

But then we'll be a pair of boobs, and I'm not sure I want that.

>>33813263
Who doesn't want to be a delicious pair of boobs? You some sort of faggot?

>>33813305
What are you talking about, anon? Only the candy-ass population likes tits. Real men are gay for dicks.

And Marianne was really looking forward to this, too...

"I -am- your bodyguard and all, would you like it if I stayed here with you?" you ask. "I mean, this was your trip to begin with."
"Yes," Luciana nods. "We can always go out some other day, it's not like I have anything resembling a schedule to keep to..."
"No," Marianne shakes her head. "You two go on ahead with Melanie and Nicolette. Things like this can easily take half a day or more depending on what they need to talk about, and I'll be with Father so I won't need you to be right there with me."
"But still, I wouldn't feel right if-"
"I mean it," she closes her eyes. "Have fun in my place, and say hi to your sister for me. Okay?"

We can't take option C, we're on the wrong route for that.

Situation may be such that the king himself would invite us to stay. Whatever this is, it should at least concern Luci a bit too

Here is an interesting quandary, thread.

See, to get a rank-up, we need to be pushy about this. We need to insist that she is the biggest concern of our day. Running off with our girlfriend is the easy thing to do, and therefore hurts her the most.

BUT AT THE SAME TIME, running off with our girlfriend offers girlfriend points. She is what we'll be spending our life with, and she's a princess too

This entire decision is duty vs friendship. Also the option to walking her to her father's place is just going to bring up the same decision again in a few story posts.

Consider it.

Let's get a double order on those pastries guys.

Rank-ups still matter though, she's still our friend and we probably won't be able to help her any more if she doesn't open up to us.

Unless dying alone and distant from the world is how you want her ending to be. Is that what you want?

>>33813380

Accompanying her to Thierri is a nice compromize. We could also get her something nice for when we come back, as morale support.

>yfw it's all keikaku so that Marianne doesn't get to be third wheel and we get our foursome

>>33813326
>at least me walk you to where your father is
At least a little bit of dignity as a guard.

That, and >>33813357

>"And also buy up a bunch of their pastries," you say, giving her a thumbs-up.
>"And especially buy up a bunch of their pastries," she nods.
we're at least bringing back something from the Wilhelms'.

Not sure about picking up everything from the book store as well; it's efficient, sure, but doing everything she would've done in town like we're running errands for her removes a lot of what she goes into town for to begin with.

There's nothing keeping her from stopping in even if there isn't an order she's expecting to get in, but those are the sorts of little things that people tend to look forward to.

>>33813420
Accompanying her to Thierri also leaves her alone when we leave. She doesn't consider him to be good company, at least not someone who can understand the problems she has.

I'm not saying we HAVE to do it, it is a good compromise considering that we're not on her route anymore, but at the same time I'm still thinking that it's important to build bridges with her.

I didn't vote on this one because I don't know which one is the 'best' option.

>>33813409
Third option is more likely to annoy her than to get us a rank-up.

>>33813447

There's important matter to discuss, why would she want someone who "understands her issues" right now? She's not going to talk about them.

>>33813485
Sometimes have the OPTION to talk about something can be a huge help, even if not used or taken.

>>33813485
It's about support and not actually because she's going to use it.

As I said on the twitters, I'm going to have to end this one early.
I have to say, your reactions to Anatole were really amusing, as was your reaction to the latest happenings.

Next thread will be on Friday night, i was going to say that I was going to try and start it early but then I remembered that Guardians of the Galaxy is out tomorrow and yeah.


Now is question time if you had any.

>>33813533
>Guardians of the Galaxy
Why would you go to such a terrible movie?

Dohohohoho

Have fun with your superheroes.

>>33813553
Because nobody can resist the appeal of a gun-toting raccoon. That, and Blue Suede.

>>33813500

But she doesn't have the option, Thierri will be there and she doesn't want to talk about her problems in front of him.

>>33813520

If she wanted our support she can get it any other time of the day.

All I'm saying is she doesn't want or needour support while she's talking politics with her father. She's not a baby and would feel shitty for us sacrificing our trip out of pity.

>>33813533

Expectations for GotG? And will next thread be FDQ or PGQ?

>>33813553

He loved Godzilla, there's no hope for him. Just accept it as a quirk from a grown man who buy chinese cartoons doll and robots.

>>33813533
I won't get to see Guardians for another two weeks or so...
damn exams

>>33813579
I liked Godzilla. I found it to be a much more entertaining movie than I initially expected.

>>33813553
>Why would you go to such a terrible movie?
Don't hate.

>>33813579
>Expectations for GotG? And will next thread be FDQ or PGQ?
Reviews are good and I love the comic run that it's based on, so I have hope.
The next thread will be Princess Guard.


And now it is time for me to sleep. Thanks for playing!

I would like to point out that our waifu can summon fuckhuge Lava Serpents and we should be getting magic training from her and not Sylvie

'Waifu' is something the players have, not something the characters in the game have.
