"Did everyone enjoy their food?" the waitress asks.
"It was great," Nicolette says, giving her a thumbs-up.
"Yes, the food was delicious," Luciana nods.

You and the others also give your thanks for the wonderful meal.

"Would anyone like any seconds, or perhaps dessert?" the waitress asks.
"No thanks," Luciana shakes her head. "I think we've all good for today."
"Actually, could I get a take-out order of sushi?" you ask. "Ummm... the eel, ten... no, fifteen pieces."
"Certainly!" the waitress says. "I'll have it for you right away!"

And true to her word, the waitress comes back a few minutes later with a small box.

"Here you go!" she says, handing it to you.

>>34659670
Err... Don't remember the specifics so hopefully some anons can fill the gaps.
A guy from PGQ moved into a house with some roomies and there was a girl playing artist and going door-to-door selling her drawings and he bought one and put it on his fridge.
The months went by and his situation with his roomies broke down, bedrooms were toxic levels of filthy, PGQ-Anon was the only one making sure bills were paid, things were clean etc. Couldn't put up with it anymore and decided he was leaving, one of the guys he was with flipped the fuck out as if Anon was betraying him. Anon eventually took his stuff but forgot the drawing on the fridge. Mentioned all this in a thread, got told to go back and get the drawing, after a few weeks he went back, it was still there, he took it to his new place.

>>34659932
She'll likely wolf it down before we're out of the restaurant.
Also, I don't think any establishment would offer a take-out service if their food turns instantly rancid.

After you take the box, she produces a bill... and it's kind of high, though not overly so. Looking at the items listed, Nicolette's order was the most expensive part of it. But the King gave you a crazy money for this trip and so you pay for everything just like you said you would.

"Er, let me get your change," the waitress says, looking down at the large number of coins you handed her.
"Nope, keep it," you say.
"Eh!?" she stares at you. "Even as a tip, this is..."
"My brother's a big spender today," Citrine says, slapping you on the back, "Just think of it as thanks for a job well done!"
"Um- well-" the waitress seems completely flustered. "Thank you for your patronage!" she says with a deep bow.

With your dining finished with, you and the others get up from the table and make your way to the door.

"You really must've liked that sushi if you'd go so far as to order takeout," Nicolette says, grinning at you.
"Yeah, this stuff was great," you nod.

And then you hand her the box.

"...huh?" Nicolette blinks a few times. "What, you're still sore about that day that we made you carry our stuff?"
"I'd actually forgotten about that," you sigh.
"Then why're you expecting me to carry your food for you?" she asks. "I know those skinny sketchbooks aren't so heavy that you can't handle-"
"That takeout order was for you," you say, pointing for extra emphasis. "Since you liked the sushi even more than I did."
"Uh..." Nicolette looks down at the box in her hands. "Thanks, man!"

As you leave the restaurant, you notice the waitress bowing to you a second time. That tip really must have made her day. And Nicolette's busy making plans with Melanie for the best time to eat the sushi... and to help her out, Luciana casts some kind of cold spell on the container in order to keep the sushi fresh until they decide to eat it.

So thinking about this a little tactically, we have something for Mari and something for Nico. Didn't Meido say she wanted clothes?

Luciana still seems kind of mad at you... and you honestly can't blame her, that joke it was kind of insensitive now that you think about it. Better try and patch up things before this starts to turn into a grudge.

An angry girlfriend is the last thing you want.

"...VIolette?" you call out to her once you're outside the restaurant.
"What is it?" Luciana replies. "I'm not sure that my -fiancé- would appreciate another boy acting so familiar with me, so please make it quick."
"Ugh..." you clutch your temples.

>[1/?]

>>34661145
That is a very common idea in anime. But that aside. There's a big problem; Reinhold broke Nicolette's best friends heart to be with Nicolette's cousin. I'm not sure Nicolette would still want to get together with Reinhold if he breaks up with Luciana.

The only way this would work is if Luciana was the one to break up with Reinhold. Reinhold would then go to Nicollette and Melanie for comfort.

Luciana might decide that spending the rest of her life with someone so completely different than her isn't something she's ready for. She's already constantly forgetting he doesn't know things. She obviously doesn't know what she's getting into.

>>34661885

"I was wondering if there was somewhere that you wanted to go, that's all," you say. "And I'm sorry for that joke, I didn't mean-"
"That I'm marriage material?" Luciana cuts you off.
"No!" you stammer. "That's not what I meant at all I was just following off of Marius's joke and took it too far!"
"Hmph."

Luciana turns away from you, her arms crossed and her nose turned up in the air. It almost feels like you're with Marianne right now.

"Violette," Takamaru places his hand on her shoulder. "You know that he didn't mean to offend you."
"But still..." she grumbles.

That's a pretty unlikely scenario. Rein's not perfect but she knew that from the get go, he was always "as good as she'll ever get" given her political importance, rather than the "10/10 wud die 4 husbando" Sylvie saw him as.

Plus, Sylvie aside, Nico probably quite likes Rein and Luci as a couple, seeing as she, at least historically, has the hots for both of them, together we'll be exponentially sexier in her eyes.

>>34662140
She'd take it as a proposal.

>>34661912
Melanie would probably be the best at comforting someone.

Shit... now I want to rank all of the girls by their ability to comfort someone. Citrine, Nicollette's mom and Melanie are at the top of the list but what about everyone else.

After letting out a long sigh, Luciana turns to you.

"Very well," she says, her arms still crossed. "I want to go to a bookstore. I assume you know where one is, right?"
"Yeah, I think there's one over that way," you say, pointing in the direction of the one that you've gone to with Marianne several times.
"Then lead the way."

She's still kind of mad. Or she's at least acting like she's still kind of mad... though you can't imagine why she'd act mad while not being mad.

"What's wrong?" Citrine asks, noticing that you're kind of distressed.
"Nothing," you sigh. "Girls are confusing, that's all."
"They sure are," Marius nods solemnly.

"It's fine with me," Nicolette shrugs.
"Same here," Melanie nods.

"Sorry..." Citrine mumbles. "It was fun, but me and Marius should probably get going around now."
"Really?" you ask, unable to hide your displeasure.
"It's the busy city life, you know?" Marius shrugs. "But this was fun, thanks for-"

The shit has flung off the handle so hard that the shit+handle combo is being considered as a levitation mechanism.

"HEY!" you shout, grabbing a hand that was darting right for the pocket where you put the money that the King gave you.
"Reinhold, what's wrong!?" Luciana gasps.
"Looks like he caught a would-be thief," Citrine says, glaring at the apprehended criminal.

Still holding onto the thief's wrist, you raise your arm into the air so that everyone can get a better view. It's a boy of maybe twelve, ans his clothes are kind of shabby.

"You'll have to do a lot better than to get past my brother," Citrine says. "We wouldn't have been able to survive up until now without being able to fend off your type.

"Or worse," Citrine says, cutting the pickpocket the kind of deathglare that you haven't seen from her in years.

While he's somewhat star/panic struck, get his name. He knows our name, after all, and fair's fair.

Then once he's told us
>give him his warning and go about your business

Let him know that now that we know his name, we can totally be able to find out if he ends up getting in trouble with the law, and if he does we're going to be really upset that stepped all over our good will in letting him off with a warning this time.

Would we really be able to keep tabs on some street rat?

>>34664201
It's more of a way to scare the kid from doing anything else. He's already star-struck from meeting Reinhold and most likely holds us in very high regard. Telling him that we can find out if he gets in trouble or not is like telling a little kid that Santa knows if they're naughty or nice.

>>34664201
We could probably ask someone with the town guard to let us know if he ends up getting brought in, but that's not really the point..

The important thing is that even if we can't keep tabs on him, that doesn't mean he knows that.

"...but I'd rather not do something like that in front of my sister," you say.
"Again," Citrine chimes in.
"Yeah, I'd rather not do something like that in front of my sister -again-," you correct yourself. "so I'm gonna let you go."
"...what?" Nicolette stares at you. "What the hell, we could at least drag this little shit to a guard..."
"Yes, I think that would be the best thing to do," Melanie joins in. "Letting him go will just cause him to target someone else."
"Yeah, but he's not going to do that," you say as you let go of Roger's arm and let him fall to the ground. "Because if I hear about Roger here pickpocketing again, he's going to get a lot worse than the normal punishment."

"Nicolette, don't you know some folks in the City Guard?" you ask.
"A couple of the other captains, yeah," Nicolette replies.
"...-other- captains?" Roger gasps.
"Oh, you didn't know?" Citrine laughs. "Nicolette here's a Captain in the Royal Guard!"

It honestly feels like he's about to have a heartattack any minute now, you should probably start winding this down.

"Well give them a description and the name of Roger here an tell them to come down -extra- hard on him if he tries this kind of thing again," you say.
"Will do," Nicolette replies.

With that out of the way you pull Roger to his feet.

"Now you understand what'll happen if you don't cut this pickpicketing shit out, right?"
"Y... yes sir..." Roger replies, on the verge of tears.
"And you're not gonna do it again, RIGHT?"
"I'll never pickpocket again, sir!" he yelps.
"Good," you nod. "Now get out of here."

Without another word, the failed pickpocket runs away from you as fast as his legs will carry him.

"Well that was an experience that I hoped that I'd never have again," Citrine says, sighing as the pickpocket runs out of sight.
"Tell me about it," you sigh. "You gonna be alright, Citrine?"
"Psh," she puffs out her chest. "I might be pregnant but I'm not fragile. It takes a lot more than that to rattle me."
"You should still be careful, though," Marius says, taking her hand.
"I know..." she sighs. "Sorry that our little get-together had to end on such a crappy note, Reinhold."
"It doesn't change the rest of the day," you shrug. "And it's always nice to see you so I'm not complaining."
"I know you wouldn't!" Citrine says, hugging you.

After some more tearful goodbyes in which Citrine takes the time to hug each and every one of your friends (including Takamaru, much to his dismay), she and Marius head off to take care of their own business.

The atmosphere amongst the five of you after you part ways with Citrine and Marius is... weird. Luciana's still kind of annoyed with you and Melanie's kind of spooked by the way that you and Citrine handled the pickpocket and it's not at all comfortable. And while you'd definitely like to solve al your problems at once, it's probably best to take care of things as they come.

"Hey Takamaru," you say in a hushed voice.
"Hm?" he turns to you.
"...what do you think I could do to make up to her for that joke?" you ask. "I think she's still mad at me."

Takamaru simply look at you with a pained smile.

"You do understand that you made a joke about marrying her, right?" Takamaru asks.
"...yeah..."
"And you realize that this is a rather delicate subject for her, yes?'
"I know," you sigh. "Probably should have thought things through. So what do I do now?"
"Well," he says, glancing over at his charge, "there's only one surefire way to make up for -that- joke."
"And that is?"
"Ask her to marry you for real."

You nearly fall over.

"Y- you can't be serious!? you whisper-shout at him. "Yes I really like her a lot but we've only been going out for a few days and I'm definitely not ready to-"
"...I guess I shouldn't joke about that kind of thing either," Takamaru says with a guilty chuckle.

It's even worse when coming from someone who's usually serious all the time.

"Being completely truthful though, I am used to this kind of thing," Takamaru says. "And she's not actually angry with you, your apology was enough to prove that you didn't mean any offense."
"Then why's she still acting like that?" you ask.
"She is just putting up an angry front because she doesn't think that you've learned your lesson. Just give her a gift and you should be completely forgiven."
"...that's all?"
"That is how it works with my wife, anyways," Takamaru says, shrugging.

After a short walk, you find yourself in standing before the familiar storefront of Marchamp's Literary Emporium.

"Ooh!" Melanie gasps.
"Eh?" you turn to her. "You really like books?"

She definitely didn't react like that the last time you were here together.

"No," she shakes her head, "they just opened a new jewelry store next door!"
"Huh, so that did," Nicolette replies with an impressed whistle. "Hey Reinhold, you mind if we go in there while you three do book stuff?"

With that, the two girls retreat into the jewelry store.

Better leave Luciana lone for now. Even if she wasn't mad at you, chances are that she'd still rather not be bothered while she looks around here... and so, you make your way to the front counter.

"Ah, long time no see!" Mr. Marchamp says with a warm smile. "Miss Marie isn't with you today?"
"No," you shake your head. "She was supposed to come along today, but something came up."
"I see," he nods. "So I take it that you're here to pick up her books?"
"No, I figured that she'd be happier if she got to come here herself," you reply. "But I was wondering if you could help me find something?"
