"Faintly, if that. Maria, did you do anything?" There seems a certain amount of uncertainty in her voice though it is still controlled and soft. I suspect there are few things that really make her worry, but I saw a wholly different side of her after Helena vanished… Speaking of which, she seems a lot more affected than the others. Never really seen her shiver.

"Uh, no, wouldn't even know where to begin!" Evangelyne looks a me intently, but that doesn't make me miss the presence approaching though the voice is still startling.

"Hail. Please, if I am allowed inquiry I'd be much obliged". A male voice, young but already very controlled precedes the appearance of a young white-haired boy maybe a year or so younger than myself. By the way he moves it is clear he's had an admirable amount of training though it feels much more overt than, say, the way Pa or Mistress Vivianne do.

Though it would be hard to point out the difference if someone asked me. His face is quite useful, and despite the outward display of confidence there seems something slightly unsure about his demeanor. Still, he probably knows how to use that sword he's carrying.

Hey, we're not that scary, are we? Ah, but then again, boys grow up much more slowly so that might be an explenation. There is a reason the man is usually older than the woman in a marriage after all. Wait, stop staring, it's really impolite.

"Oi, what's the matter boy?" Sora has stepped forward, looking down at him in what I could only describe as friendly curiousity.

"L-lady Witch, if you could perhaps be so kind as to point out the location of the post office? Dragonheart has been cut off from its sparkwire connection, thus I came here in order to for message from home. I would be much obliged". Sora shakes her head ruefully.

"Sorry tha say but I ain't got the faintest. Though if you like we could go look for it together. Dem witches here built this thing crazy complicated so's easy tha get lost y'know". I wish I could be as self-assured or helpful…

"Hey I know it I ran by it yesterday so if you want I could show you". Helena's all action again, quickly pushing towards where the two are standing, practically bouncing from to toe to-- a hum sweeps over us. Huh. I suddenly remember back in our room looking at her. She's cute. Why haven't I seen this all this time. Odd. But wait, that's not what this is about at all.

The boy nods, though Sora seems a bit crestfallen. Hey, don't feel bad, at least you didn't get a wicked headache. She seemed in really terrible pain back then, and one really can't be expected to know EVERYTHING.

"If it is no trouble I would accept your guidance, Lady…?"

"Sora, leave the 'lady' out".

"Helena!"

"Sora, Lady Helena, if you were to provide your guidance I would be in you debt".

"Whoa there boy, ain't you like one of the big honchos in here? No need to get all formal with us".

"Lady Sora, politeness is /always/ needed. Besides, I am heir to no holdings and as such not much beyond a warrior". Somehow, that seemed like a practiced speech, though his sincerity shines through.

"Alrighty then. Helena, show the way". Helena looks at Evangelyne, who exhangess a few glances with Sora, then shrugs and nods before taking over Thalia and Erato. What was THAT about?

Anyway, they'll probably be fine. Sora knows what she's doing.

They're barely out of sight when a certain person I almost forgot rounds the corner.

"Ohoho, yes, you, person. I remember your face, loath as I am to admit it. You will keep me company as I proceed to my breakfast". The blackhaired girl looks up at me sideways, smiling in a way saying "This and everything else belongs to me and you are only here because I want you to". Though… with her face and height it is kind of hard to take seriously.

I thought people would rage at the faintest hint of het. My opinions just improved.

>>35403059
Well to be fair while I don't mind the het, /ss/ is garbage-tier and should be avoided. Hopefully she finds someone older. Though I still don't see what on earth makes her come off as straight other than 'didn't get immediately matched with someone else in shippers' heads' like the rest of our main cast.

>>35403059
They met a guy asking for directions. Males existing is not a faintest hint of het.

>>35403059
Sora is straight though, it's not like anyone is suggesting Maria date someone that isn't Eri, everyone else can love who they want

>>35403059
Really the only serious non-joke shipping is between Eri and Maria. I've always seen Eva and Helena as just something funny to joke about at least.

This guy is going to be PISSED when he realizes that the Sparkwire network is just fucking GONE.
>>35403095
To be fair, we don't know how old Maria is so he might not be shota aged either.

It's Eriadne's ex.

Very unlikely with Eri being in house DeVega and all.

Why did Helena suddenly become noticeable in his presence?
>>35403558
Maybe she's into poorfags. Joke.

>>35403513
Even younger than Maria? Unlikely. Maria even specifically comments that men marry older, after all.
I mean, beyond the fact that it's literally a random dude and there's nothing indicating it in the first place.

With the way Hex has been spoilering stuff I wouldn't be surprised if she had an Ex or some kind of unrequited love.
It doesn't really bother me as long as he doesn't use it to pull Kaleun style faggotry.

>>35403059
Neh, I I'm okay with straight stuff but I'd probably be pretty crestfallen if things don't out lovey-dovey between Maria and Eriadne. I'd not lose sleep over it though.

Yea, or maybe even just males with magic. Or maybe it's because Eri's deviance frequency is different than this guy's which got perceived by Helena as Eri being scary.

Convergence is also partially responsible for everyone ending up in the right house and witches forming into covens so quickly and making sure senpai notices us later today and everything else.

Fate gonna Fate. Maybe chuuni priestess could tell us more about it if we asked, she did say something about sensing the Weave, whatever that is.

Posting that whole bit because it is currently relevant.
>I am the Watcher of the Gate. The protector of the Sacred Rest. When the call came, our Cabal saw it as an honor. At last the All-Mother seemed to acknowledge Koshari and the important role we played at keeping this world together. And then I saw her again. The heretic. The abomination. The arrogant fool who thought herself above the natural order of things, calling down the power of her goddess to transgress against mandates older than the cosmos.

>I can feel her now. Feel her pull across the halls of this place. Oh, I won't end her, that would go against the Weave, but I'll make her face her past sins. Just wait, soon you'll no longer be able to hide behind your mask of baseless cheer.

You mean you think she didn't? Helena is a healer. The protector of the Sacred Rest clearly haaates healers, especially supernatural ones.

Whether she did something wrong depends on who you ask.

A cage, woven of symbols made of golden light. Inside, a girl, stripped and bare, suspended in the centre by chains of similar make. Her head is slumped forward, long black hair affording her naked chest at least some minimal modesty.

She needs my help! The thought lances through me like lightening, and as if in response, my aimless flight carries me just in front of the cage.

"Hello! Can you hear me?!" The girl shakes her head, still looking down, as if too weak to look up.

"Not be here… nobody be here…".

"I am here, can you hear me?!"

She shivers and slowly looks up. Her face is covered in strange markings, but what really shocks me is the pure despair in those half-closed eyes. Suddenly, her gaze seems to focus as she /sees/ me for the first time.

"You shouldn't be here! Nobody should be here! Leave! LEAVE! LEAVE!"

I try to speak, but suddenly I'm far away again, seeing that the cage seems to be the centre of something much larger. I try to get closer again, but a swarm of bats suddenly bears me away.

With a small cry, I wake.

[X] Imply rudeness on her part

Fight the urge. You've withstood pain like others couldn't dream, you can resist laughing at her strange behavior.

"That is a big honor. Hey, is your head better? You seemed in a really bad shape yesterday".

"What is this, Maria?" Evangelyne looks from me to the girl and back curiously.

"Oh, Eriadne and I met her yesterday after dinner. She was pretty badly beaten up and--"

"NOT TRUE!!" My vindictive spark flares. This is just way too rude.

"You were. You could barely STAND back then if it hadn't been for the others holding you!"


She runs in front of us, spreading her arms as a cold presence seems to seep out of the cracks in the walls towards her.

"You will RESPECT me!! ~Gates of Beyond open to admit a power to crumble stones and rot all hope--"

"Five Heavens, nine flames, a falling star…" The voice beside me is controlled, but angry. Uh oh, will they duel? Right here and now?

From the corner of my eyes I can see Evangelyne draw a something that looks like a piece of paper out of her breast pocket.

"Y-you wouldn't dare?!" Evangelyne keeps counting quietly. Huh, it seems time has done this thing where it slows down a lot.

"Impact Three: Air Bullet!"

With a harsh motion her hand whips forewards, there is a thunderous crack, and a second later the black-haired girl is staring up at us teary-eyed, clutching her forehead, half-kneeling on the black-tiled floor.

"You HURT me!! How DARE you hurt me?!" Evangelyne just shrugs before shaking her head ruefully.

"Bad girls are punished. Good girls are rewarded. It is quite simple". Hey, are you sure this is okay? I mean, whatever she was about to call on was POWERFUL. Though she's a bit young, she probably doesn't know better. Guess the best way is to simply treat her like her age. Usually gods will interfere only when called by their clerics so if we keep her from doing something weird it should work out fine.

That cold though, that skin-freezing cold she called. Ah, but come on. You shouted at AKAZU just an hour earlier. Or was it more? Less? Anyway, what matters is that this wouldn't be your first experience with unearthly ire being directed at you, and when the conduit is this small and excitable it just seems much less daunting by comparison.

"You really should…"Erato has been kind of silent all the way through, but now she speaks, tones even. I'll never figure these out.
"…do as the Senra says" Thalia concludes, the both of them wearing a mirrored expression of deep displeasure.

"Insolent fools, the Chosen of Koshari does not cower to base violence!" Oh my, she really likes pushing her luck.

"Shantak's…
"…whisp--". The quietly-spoken joint command is cut short by Evangelyne shaking her head.

"Well? What shall it be, young one?" Evangelyne's stepped forward, stretching out her hand and… yes, the younger girl is actually taking it, blushing sullenly while looking to the side.

"I know, dear. You must be hungry, I know I am".

"You are permitted to escort me as well for the occassion". Now talk about a quick change. I mean, I've heard of beating people into being your friends -in a way I've done it a few times as well- but still, that was a quick change anyway.

Just then, we arrive at the hall lit by that strange light I've seen in other places.

Eva truly has a way with Lolis, Nee-san would approve.

Maria might have shouted down an elder god but Eva ain't too shabby either.

Eva's Loli mastery is quite formidable even compared to Maria's protect Eriadne Nee-sama mode.

>>35430095
> didn't actually include the announcement in the post after all
Don't worry Hex, it's only 7 hours late!

Does it worry anyone else that Maria had no way to deal with RHP herself? I was thinking she could use AKAZU's fear aura before realizing it wouldn't work on her.

>>35432595
Oh, this reminds me.

>Ask raven-haired priestess's name.

>>35432595
She could use the shield and just hit her in the face with it. RHP seems to have a more direct connection to her god, but she needs an incantation. ...eva's chant this time was strange, and since when do they use paper?

>>35432613
Who caaaresss. She's super annoying and not Eriadne.

>>35432613
Oh yeah, that's pretty important isn't it

>>35432709
>She's super annoying and not Eriadne.
Maria seems bemused by her.

>>35432709
She's annoying in that cute way animes often are. Haughty loli-clerics best loli-clerics.

But we're deep in personal taste territory so yeah.

>>35432810
She kinda feels like the most "anime" of the characters, doesn't she?

I seriously wonder how much of this is her and how much is her reflecting her god.

>>35432854
That's what happens when a character goes maximum overchuu.

I mean, just look at Hex himself, I'm pretty sure he's part anime or something.

>>35432900
>I seriously wonder how much of this is her and how much is her reflecting her god.
Probably about fifty-fifty, there is no such thing as having powers in AToW and not at least being slightly different from normal humans. Witches have pink blood and Helena can do photosynthesis for crying out loud.

>>35433011
>Witches have pink blood
We don't know that? Talam has pink blood, and she is Not a Witch anymore.

>>35432810
She was ready to use a spell to have us respect her - possibly some sort of mind-altering one. Fuck that noise.

>>35432900
>I seriously wonder how much of this is her and how much is her reflecting her god.
http://ask.fm/ConvictCyborg/answer/118717158466
>>35433084
>Talam has pink blood, and she is Not a Witch anymore.
Pretty sure she still had some powers. The guy said only a Witch could do the contract.

>>35433091
You're welcome to that opinion. I'm more than willing to forgive her.

For a more sane opinion, I'd trust Evangelyne's Bunny-powered intuition if I were you. She's the kid expert here.

>>35433263
>She's the kid expert here.
Even kids that are walking WMDs of questionable sanity?

>>35433407
Yes? She definitely acted like it last update. I'll agree that we need more proof to be certain.

>>35433263
Hrm, we'll see. Feels like walking on razor's edge though.

>>35433731
>Hrm, we'll see. Feels like walking on razor's edge though.
Isn't that what AToW is about? Walking on Razor's edge while looking really fucking cute in the process?

>>35433867
But this edge seems razorier. Razier.

>>35434889
>But this edge seems razorier. Razier.
I like Razier. HOLD ON, how will Eva have all four lolis if two of them hate each othe?

>>35435683
>Implying Eva can't get them to kiss and make up

>>35435683
The RHP falls.

>>35435683
I'm looking forward to seeing how that plays out, yes. As much as I like chuuni priestess, I can't not take Helena's side if forced to choose.

I'm guessing she's only getting close to Maria because she thinks it'll make Helena fall somehow. She's wrong, of course.

>>35435808
>I can't not take Helena's side if forced to choose.
That's the crux of it really Helena is just too useful to us as a cleric for her healing powers. RHP making her fall is something to be avoided at all costs.

>>35435876
I agree with your conclusion but detest how you reached it. Friends are not our friends because they are useful.

>>35436317
Well of course I was just talking on a purely Meta stand point. Throwing one of the original nakama under a bus is completely out of the question.

24 hour mark has been reached.

>>35449359

>>35449646
Well hopefully he pulls through soon or we may be in the land of CCQ.

>>35449950
>CCQ
No clue what that is
CQC is Close Quarter Chuuni isn't it, though?

>>35450004
Hex's last quest Convict Cyborg Quest.
He left a thread with no update for three days before moving it to akun and abandoning it.

>>35450021
>abandoning it.
Well he did make one update

two months later...

I think his current plan is to get AToW to a good point and then write more CCQ

>>35450039
It's a pity he's backsliding so hard all of a sudden.
He was doing pretty good for a while there.

>>35450046
Indeed.

He just needs to stop editing while he's writing, write out a chunk, then come back to edit any errors out like an hour later and post it instead of staring at it for 12 hours beating himself up over it

>>35450056
To be honest judging form some of his Ask.fm answers he's starting to just give up.

>>35450039
I doubt it. He seemed pretty hype about that dragon-noble AToW spinoff though.

CCQ is shit anyway.

>>35450073
>CCQ is shit anyway.
From what I've heard about it it does seem way too edgy for my tastes.

>>35450069
His brain's broken. Don't put any stock in what he says.

>>35450091
Well if he can't even stay under a day anymore we may be seeing then end of cute witches.

>>35450078
My personal problem with it is that it seems like Hex never even wanted to run it. Just got talked into it by QTG.

>>35450104
Was AToW his idea then? I only started following him with this quest.

>>35450073
>CCQ is shit anyway.
Fuck you too anon

>>35450078
>From what I've heard about it
It is not edgy at all, and if you read it you would know instead of believing the L&M that anons spew all over the place.

>>35450104
>>35450111
They were both his idea and pitch, only reason he was reluctant to run CCQ at first was because he had no experience running a quest.

>>35450111
It's seriously depressing to think that he put this much effort into worldbuilding without enjoying it.

>>35450123
That's true it's not often you see a quest with this much thought and effort put into it.

>>35450111
Nah. Hex started this on his own volition.

>>35450123
>without enjoying it.
Keep on spreading those lies anon.

Go back to the /qtg/ if your going to be a faggot.

>>35450134
Well that's good to hear at least.

As a side note are you guys alright with setting 280 as the cut off for just bumping until the thread autosages? If it takes Hex another 12 minimum to make a post we're probably not getting one this thread anyway.

>>35450104
Then you might want to actually talk to the guy sometime instead of believing the cesspit of lies because you are way off the mark.

>>35450143
Anon I don;t think you really understood what he was trying to say there. You should calm down a little.

>>35450152
I understand exactly what he's saying, and its all just conjecture and poorly made conclusions doing nothing but creating rumors which are not going to help Hex in any way.

Not quite kill though I feel a lil' like that. Fell asleep at four, woke up at eight and then slept again till ten fifteen and felt kind of tranc-y since then. Sorry for the blog.

Anways, let's see wht can be done.
>>35450039
>I think his current plan is to get AToW to a good point and then write more CCQ
Pretty much this, ya. I want to get amout 6000 - 7000 more words in, then put AToW into hiatus for two weeks while running CCQ every other day, then run the two side by side.

Sorry for making everyone worry.

>>35450164
>amout

>>35450164
>Sorry for making everyone worry.
The silence is the worrying part, just jump in and make a short post letting us know whats up and we'll continue sitting by the bonfire keeping warm.

>>35450160
Read it again
>>35450123
He was just saying it is depressing for someone to put a lot of effort into something while not enjoying it.
He didn't say that Hex doesn't enjoy AToW.

>>35450176
You just contradicted yourself anon.

>>35450172
>>35450164
And why does it keep stripping my tri-- wait, I think I set it to that because it kept staying on where it wasn't wanted.
>>35450175
Yes, that too is a problem for me.

>>35450164
>running CCQ every other day,
I'm sensing a flaw here. Don't set unachievable goals.

>>35450187
He can totally do it if he sits down and doesn't let himself get distracted, he's done it in the past with CCQ and Hexer Quest, and in AToW.

Though its been so long it might be clouding anons memories...

>>35450183
How?
Saying that it's depressing to think that someone puts effort into something they don't like isn't saying that they don't actually like it.

>>35450187
Then let's say "updating CCQ every other day". Which is still fuck-off slow, but decent for an Akun Quest.
>>35450197
Also this.

>>35450200
>into something they don't like
> they don't actually like it.

Now is the time! Quick, pounce into the can-opener's window-face thing!

"Boss, are you sure about this?"

Of course I'm sure! Don't make me spray you, fool!

"To be honest, he seems as though he's back home. And he left some tuna cans open too."

He's just going to bumble around and do that wallowing business of his, we both know that!

"What I know is that there's a tuna can that doesn't smell of poison, and it's been twenty twilights since I've had wet food. I'll see you some other day, boss."

Bah! Herding cats, I tell you! I'll do this myself!

DYNAMIC ENTRY!!

OMGTHEZAPANDTHELIGHTSANDTHEEXISTENTIALTORMENT!!!

... Where am I? This place seems floaty... Hey where did you people come from!? And why do you look like you understand me? You can-openers never did before!

Actually, wait! This makes everything easier!

As the leader of the FFFF, I now declare this quest to be subdued under my velvet paw! My first command is: instruct me where to go, so I might reignite the ancient wars between my progenitor and his foe!

..You seem a bit confused, let me explain the situation. See, I'm surrounded by.. what I can only describe as night sky. Kind of floaty too. Far away, I can spot a garden of some variety. I'm sure I can lay waste to the wee children of the dragon there. However, there is also a mansion to the other side. I don't know if I can hunt anything there, but who knows what I might find.

So I command again, thee who sit on chairs in excess of your kind's average. Advise me where to go!

Or else I'll puke a furball in this thread.

>>35450420
Wait wat.

>>35450420
Oh no, anons are catching Hexer too, now!

>>35450420
>Advise me where to go!

>>35450430
Is this your first hostile takeover, can-opener? Have you not read the news? We, the Fluffy Feline Fighting Force (we keep renaming ourselves to avoid profiling, see?) have decided to stop taking hostages and actually invade this quest, in the hopes of expediting our goals: quick updates, rekindling glorious war, and unpoisoned tuna.

You are either with us, or against us! Now advise!

>>35450446
There are no dragons here, only stars. And two places far away. You'll never become an advisor to anyone this way.

Cat ISIS pls go.

>>35450520
Yes, that's what I'm trying to decide!

>>35450526
You're the worst advisers in wherever I am! Fine, I'll just go in the direction my tail's pointing...

The mansion room it is! And since there's a long walk ahead, I'm going away for a short while!

It's not the fact they like things I don't, that's inevitable. It's the fact they keep bringing it up whenever they have the chance.

Well it just so happens the "stuff they enjoy" is something they imagine to be true. It's on par with slash fanfic in terms of merit, and made all the more obnoxious due to your constant pushing.

I thought it was slowly shrinking?

>>35452513
It appears to be growing sideways, much like the belly of my former comrade when he's stuffing his face with tuna.

>>35452495
Because as a quest grows larger with a primary /u/ or no/u/ fanbase eventually some one will show up who it either militantly /u/ or anti-/u/ and they proceed to shit everything up as hard as possible.

>>35452513
We've had quite a few anons going over the last week in the thread and CutieG gives a lot of exposure. CutieG is also were the Militant /u/ and anti-/u/ reside as well.

>>35452464
>>35452513
>>35452536
I'm pretty sure this is a result of boredom and probably irritation at update speeds.

Same reason for all the lewd talk. You know what they say about idle hands.

>>35452556
That can be a factor as well. The slow pace is causing some of the /u/ and no/u/ followers to militarize and go for each others throats.

I'll never understand why people feel so strongly about it anyway.

>>35452580
I don't get it either. Especially anti-/u/ anon it seems he just wants cute girls doing cute things so I don't see why it affects him so much.

>>35452575
So it's like the situation before the first world war?

>>35452556
>>35452575

>Anon bored of waiting for Hex update, doesn't want to bump thread and/or talk about it here, mentions that future-fic in QTG in an innocuous manner.
>Some brief polite discussion of it
>Some incredibly bad troll sees a chance to make people mad, tries to claim Hexer said it was canon
>QTG dies, troll can't keep it up, goes into the thread instead
Ta-da, we have this incredibly obvious shit-stirring situation.

>>35452596
Cute girls doing cute things is not the same as cute girls carpet-munching.

>>35452612
Sounds like the cause was boredom to me.

>>35452628
>cute girls carpet-munching
If those carpets belong to other cute-girls, its still a cute thing.

>>35452608
hahaha I guess so. It's a real shame because normally everyone is really polite here even if they disagree on /u/

>>35452612
It's a shame this kind of stuff happens.

>>35452628
But they're not mutually exclusive. There is no need to get so riled up about it.

>>35452632
The anons being bored aren't (necessarily at least) the same anons starting and continuing the argument though.

>>35452668
I'm pretty sure if Hex was posting and they had something else to talk about they wouldn't bother. Since this happens on a pretty frequent but occasional basis.

>>35452612
Makes sense. Since we're Saging anyway, how should we add to the party? Hex has pretty blatantly hinted at Eri being Bat and Sora cat so we'd have the complete set if one of the twins is Snake.

I suggest we get Mireille to hook us up with a Witchbreaker or two for fast anti magic CQC and a dragonblood for quick striking.

>>35452740
Bat?
Cat?
Snake?

>>35452740
Hex was talking to an anon in the ask.fm about having the current 7 girls as a core party with a selection of side members if that makes sense. I assume they would be RHP, Sanya, Dragon boy and maybe Mireille at this time.

>>35452740
I'd rather see what kind of quest this is before optimizing for fights that might not even happen often.

Sora doesn't seem angry or angsty enough for Cat.

>Sora cat
While this is rather flattering, I fail to see your reasoning. Then again, I'm admiring the firmament.

Well the party stuff includes a fair chunk of non-combat stuff i the first place with Eva being an Artificer and Eri's caste being related to finding and holding knowledge.

>I'm pretty sure if Hex was posting and they had something else to talk about they wouldn't bother.
Anon, while there are plenty of reasonable arguments against the yurifags to be made, the tone and timing of this argument makes it obvious that was a troll. Why would a troll care whether Hex posted an update or not?

I'm saying the troll was bored and is preying on other player's boredom.

The timing of the Ask.fm answer really points to some troll showing up waving the /u/ or anti-/u/ flag just to start shit with the opposite side in the quest.
Normally Everyone here gets along even if they don't share the same opinion on yuri.

Mireille herself? Sounds like an amusing means of getting Eva endlessly annoyed because she's an adult. Who she can't even bully with magic because monk.
