"Well I'm following it" I say as I step into the underbrush.

"Clever" She says as she follows me "but if my skirt gets torn, you're paying for it"

"Fine fine" I say as try and not trip over the large amount of roots sticking out of the ground like grasping hands.

After a frustrating journey through the brambles and roots, we end up at the end of the road, and in a clearing, with a single cottage in it, smoke rising from the chimney, and a light in the windows

"Think that's the place?" I ask

"I hope so" Evaline says angrily "if it isn't I'm killing whoever is inside it". She stomps angrily towards the building

Seconding.
I want to throw tnt through his chimney.

I follow her. the area around the cottage is barren, not even grass grows around it and there's a sense of wrongness around it all.

"Keep your steps light" I whisper to her, she nods, but seems to ignore the advice I've given despite it being great advice.

She goes up to the door and begins knocking, dammit red head.

Sadly to late for the party surprise since she already knocked.

So I read through and caught up and I just have this to say WHAT THE FUCKING FUCK DID YOU DO, A GODDAMN CATGIRL, REALLY!? Is this ending soon or do I have to drop this?

I'd like to continue but this makes me too angry to think straight.

If you're going to be that petulant and insufferable over something perfectly reasonable, then your probably better off doing something else to cool your head down.

>>35828261
If you read the last session and this one, you should have noticed how literally no one wanted to reverse it in those and we had plenty of opportunity. Nor did anyone complain when it happened, especially considering the prior transformation controversy, thats pretty telling.

>>35828279
I just searched for !8.HocLMZTU.

Guess I have to drop this then, shame I liked it up till this.

>>35828279
It really is. I like that its not permanent and if anything it not being permanent makes me not mind keeping it. Right now its simply another tool in our toolbox rather than feeling like something just foisted on us.

>>35828287

>>35828286
Don't let the door hit you.

I stand by the door, hand on my syringes, ready for what ever tackles and tears out Evaline's throat.
She waits moment, and the door, opens, covering her in a warm light.

"Can I help you?" a kindly old voice asks

"Yeah I have some questions to ask" She says as she walks in.

Oh, that was rather disappointing, I was expecting a werewolf or something. I sigh and walk off, sitting down near the stairs leading into the cottage. I stare at the sky, bored that I don't have anything to do.

"So, what's a little thing like you doing here" A gravelly voice asks.

"Looking to kill someone" I answer "You"

"Oh the same, the same" it replies

"Anyone in particular?" I ask

"nah, can't let myself be restrained by such things" He says snorting "Besides it's a nice night, don't need to worry about who I'll kill, ya know?"

"I understand" I say "sometimes you just need to kill something"

"Finally" the voice says "someone who understands, you just gotta kill sometimes, release some stress, ya know?"

"Oh I know what you mean" I say "great way to relieve stress, fantastic, even gives you a nice rush afterwards"

"OOoh yes the rush" the voice says "the only thing I really live for nowadays in this grey dead shit hole"

"Yeah I have to admit it's pretty boring out here" I say with a sigh "not really dead though"

"Yeah well it's boring enough that it should be dead, ya know?" the voice says. I shrug

"Bah" it says "so what you doing out here anyways, don't see girlies like you so far from town"

Yep

"I already told you" I say "the same thing you're doing, looking for someone to kill"

"Ah, that makes sense" he says "but why the forest, no one lives here, well besides this old goose"

"It's my forest?" I say.

"Oh now it's everyone's forest" he says "well mostly the wolves but hey, they ain't people"

"Now I literally own the forest and the surrounding lands" I say "countess of Brausrburge"

"Ah, so you're the one who killed the count then?" He asks "well that's quite impressive"

"yep, he was a tough one to take down" I say "my arm still hurts from that day"

"Oh I know a way to fix that" the voice says "a tea made from a blue petaled flower, numbs any pain, and tastes wonderful"

"Not really a tea person" I say

"To each their own" the voice says

then I hear screaming, a weak scream, like an old....god fucking dammit Evaline

I stand up, and throw open the door. Inside I see Evaline covered in blood, beating what looks like a pile of flesh with a baseball bat.

"Evaline!" I shout "WHAT THE FUCK"

"I said if this wasn't the place I'd kill whoever was inside" She says "I needed some stress relief anyways"

"Ok, I'd do the same in you position" I say "but that's just rude to kill someone who let you into their house"

"And?" She asks "like you actually care"

"I care when I'm here" I say "have to keep up appearances as a benevolent countess"

"and for all we knew, she ate children" She says

"Evaline, really" I say "I kill for fun and out of boredom, and even I wouldn't make an excuse for what you just did"

"Oh please, stop acting so high and mighty" She says.

"I'm not, I just said I wouldn't make an excuse" I say rubbing my forehead "no please stop mutilating the old womens corpse, we have a man to find and kill"

"Oh perhaps I can be of aid" the voice says

He's so polite. I like him.

>>35828479

I turn around, leaving evaline to beat left of the woman into a pulp.

"So how can you" I say as I turn before I recognize the voices face, it's a lot friendlier than the picture, but it's no doubt him "help me"

"Ah" He says standing tall and proud "you see I know most places people would be hiding out, and it'd be my duty and a citizen of brausrburge to aid the countess...what are you staring at with jaw agape"

"Oh the future" I say "anything really, mostly the future though"

"Oh and why's that?" he asks smiling

"Oh no reason in particular" I say "just need to have a talk with you"

Huh, I hope he doesn't die from that, we were supposed to make it dramatic.

I almost regret what I'm about to do, actually, no I don't I need these people, for things

"Come closer" I say, clutching three syringes with my hand.

"Oh, what is it, countess?" He asks leaning closer and smiling. I stab him in the neck with all three, not sure what I gave him, but the combination should be fatal. He swats me away, and while clutching his neck reaches out to me, a look of concern on his face. He then notices the syringes in his neck, and smikes

"ah" he says as they work their way through his veins as he wobbles back and forth "so I am the one you wanted to kill then?". I nod

"Should've known" he says pulling the syringes from his neck "but my countess, before I pass on, I have one last request from you, my first and last, kind of quaint no"

"What is it?" I ask "depending on what is I may indulge you"

"Make my end, one worthy of children's stories" he says laughing "Never could harm a child, and I'd very much enjoy keeping them from harm by being a monster that lurks in the dark, please my countess, grant me this one wish". I stare at him slightly confused

"I know I won't make it past the night even if I struck you down" He says "l can already feel my body fluttering away on the wind, please, fulfill my last request"

I suppose we could set him on fire close to the edge of the forest and send him out with the tnt glued to him, seems fairly dramatic.

>>35828816
the exploding demon of brausrburge?

>>35828827
So to speak. Seeing some bruning guy run out of the forest and then explode sounds story worthy to me.
We could even do this
>>35828805
before, to create the proper atmosphere.

>>35828777

He wants us to recite a tale of a brutal fight and an end involving an axe. Not to have people know of his demise as through poison.

explosions sounds fine

Seconding those. And then we tell the villagers we had to blow him up twice.

Well, we have been meaning to use that bomb we made a while back.

>>35828852
We could use the maze bombs here, and the tnt for the finale. The maze bombs probably couldn't kill him anyway.

>>35828849
>>35828777
Well glad anons came up with something good. Supporting.

I'm a bit sad he actually gave up so fast. Would have been more fun to actually fight him with bombs and shocker gloves.
I guess we have to look for a test run of our cat abilities at another mission.

>>35828896
He's probably just tired of living, plus he likes us.

>>35828896
we could use the gloves on Evelin

>>35828952
Nah, we invited her for the killing.
Can't begrudge her that, when she can't even get to take a shot at the target.

>>35828982
I still want to punch her in the face with the shock gloves.

Just because you don't find the target doesn't mean you get to kill OUR peasantry.

Sure, take out your frustrations, but not on our property, that's what we do.

"alright" I say "I'll do it". He smiles, and bows, nearly falling over

"Thank you, my countess" He says trying to stand up right "Do what you will to me"

"Oh I will" I say imagining the fireworks I'm about to set off "I imagine the townsfolk will be able to see what I'm about to do". He raises and eyebrow

"Just standstill and close your eyes" I say as I reach into my pack pulling free the three sticks of tnt and my homemade mace bomb out, as well as some duct tape, and my lighter

I hmm to myself as I quickly go to work, turning this polite killer into a walking bomb strong enough to level a house or two.

I hum little diddy to myself as I light the fuses I tied together and run to the house

"Get down!" I shout as I tackle the exhausted Evaline

Meanwhile In Brausrburge
"oh Vut a vonderfully peaceful night" the man says "eh vallus". the dong lays his head on his owners lap asleep when suddenly

*KRAAAAAAAAAAAABOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM*

A large ball of fire appears above the forest, blowing out the ear drums of anyone unfortunate enough to be too close to it.

Meanwhile back at the cottage

"Hooooooly hell the was amazing" I say standing up, brushing dirt, and ash off of myself

"WHAT HAPPENED TO THE HOUSE" EVALINE SHOUTS.

"Something glourious" I say looking at the still burning crater in front of us "something beautiful"

Make something up about the wolfman who prowled the forest, seeking to prey on the weak and small, who came across a lonely cottage in the forest one day and ravaged the cottage's lonely and weak occupant, and that when news of such a monster prowling the night and the edge of town reached the ears of the benevolent Countess, she determined to rid Brausrburge of this threat to its residents.

When the Countess came across the lonely cottage in the forest she was set upon by the beast, as she took refuge from the monster in the cottage it started reciting an old childrens tale about a wolf and a girl in a red jacket, and as he got to the line "And I'll huff and I'll puff" she threw TNT into his mouth and blew him the fuck up.

>>35829034
I know, I'm sad to, he would have been an awesome head guard for our castle and the reward wasn't much.

But sadly I missed the vote, and so he died :(

Hey headmaster, I have a question. You mentioned that Layla leaned poisons and explosives from a book she found. It wouldn't have been the Anarchist Cookbook would it?

I smile, as I begin to weave the tale of my could've been friend within my mind.

Later in the townsquare

"So there he was" I standing near the defaced statue of Thradrick "Larger than three men, thrice as strong, with fangs the size of my arm, yet despite how terrible the beast was, it was one of the most magnificent I have ever seen. Me and my servant came across it as it mauled the poor old women in the forest, but luckily I knew the score, and I could not let such a creature haunt this land anymore, as my servant tried in vain to save the poor victim, I spoke with the beast in the guise of his kin and learned his heart was quite bleak, he told me how he planned to stew children and swallow whole newborns, how he'd pickle eyeballs and roast pure maidens, my stomach did churn and as the beast laughed in the night remembering his many foul deeds, I gave him the last meal he'd swallow, two sticks of tnt and a creation of my own, with an earthshaking boom, the beast was no more"

The crowd cheers while Evaline looks like she wants to kill me

Mission complete
Report: Okay, so from the report she wrote, which included the words, old woman beaten to death by a baseball bat, and crater larger enough to park a jeep in, She admitted to allowing her partner kill an innocent old woman now we have to have some standards her<Request denied>

I open my mouth to talk to Evaline, but she's already gone by time I do so, how rude. I shrug and decide to head back to my and Maria's room, I think I'll need to take her on more missions, she doesn't seem to have much morality, which is such an annoyance when you need to blow things up.

"Shower" She says "also what did you do to get so"

"Blew up a very polite man" I say "and thank you"

"Well you can't really call a person a friend a until the help you bathe" she says "now can you"

"You can't?" I say "well that explains a lot about my previous life"

"You didn't know" she says giggling "but don't tell anyone about this, and I do mean anyone"

"Ok" I say "I wouldn't dare tell a soul, hell I wouldn't even tell myself".

"good" She say smiling "or tell anyone about what you heard a few second ago" I nod

I strip down to my underwear,

"Please don't pull my tail this time" I say meekly as Maria adjusts the tempature of the shower


"Don't worry" She says "I know what you do when your tail is pulled, and please try to stay calm this time" She holds up her bandaged arm

It is a much more pleasant experience this time, partially because the water is just right and Maria scratches behind my ears, which is a very pleasant feeling.

Maria leaves to let me get dried and dressed.

After I finish getting my pajamas on, I walk back into the room

"So about that book" I say remembering it. Maria turns a bright shade of red

"W..what book" She says "you should lay down Layla, sound like you need some sleep"

"the how to care for your cat book you were reading earlier" I say, as Maria turns an even redder shade

"W..well that was so I could learn how you could take a shower with out freaking out" she says scratching her head "yeah that's why I got that book"

"Is it reaaaly?" I ask

"W..well" She says laughing nervously "See, I went to the request office to get a book on cat grooming, and this was the only one they had, yeah that's why". I stare at her

"Ookay it wasn't the only one they had" She said "but it was the best one". I stare at her smiling

"What do you want from me?!" She shouts, red as a pepper

"the truth" I say

"Why does it matter?" She asks

"Because I'm part cat" I say "it's a bit disturbing for you to own that book"

"It's just for the grooming section" She says her voice cracking "I swear"

"You swear?" I ask. She nods hastily

Maria's nice. We shouldn't push her like that, it's clear she's not comfortable with this.

Plus, we need to build up those brownie points for our next horrible 2spooky prank.

>>35829271
This, also check the screen.
After that try to will away the cat ears to see if we can.

I think you might've been a bit too late.

>>35829617
Sometimes she needs to be pushed. If she can stay with us and not tap in "Maria" it'll only help her truly become the killer we know she can be.

As long as we are nice about the pressing. No bullying Maria this time, Halloween is soon.

"Maria what's the real reason you got that book?" I ask "I won't be mad, no matter what you say"

"W...w..w..well" She says shakily "I kind of always wanted a cat, but I did get the book only for the
grooming section, I swear"

"Thank you" I say as I wrap my arms around her "it means a lot you'd waste your time to do that".

"N..no problem" she says hugging me back "Want to watch a movie or something? I got a new one about giant robots and"

but we need popcorn and more explosives supplies

hey guys heres an idea, popcorn laced with small amounts of catnip

"Sure" I say "I'm starting to enjoy these monster movies of yours". Maria smiles as she rushes up and put the disc in, meanwhile I curl up into a ball under my blankets, and try to stay awake through the whole move, but end up passing out about half way through

And I think this is where we'll end. I'll be around to chat and answer questions

As well as write side stories like Maria getting the cat book

>>35829681
Thanks for the threads HM, mammoth run time today.

>>35829681
and I will take requests for the side stories

>>35829681
>As well as write side stories like Maria getting the cat book
yes please

Does it end with request guy being inspired to make that catnip launcher?

>>35829681
Thanks for running another great session.

Can Layla read morning dews commentary to her reports?

>>35829681
Thanks for the thread.
These monstrous run times are killing me. I have to get up in four hours to go to class but I can't stop reading.

Now I'm sad we didn't get polite killer as our castle's guard.

We need a good person to look after the place for us and he would have done well.

>>35829713
I wouldn't have mind that, but to be honest I find it more rewarding to break our nun in for such a purpose.

<at the request office>
the bell rings, and the man behind the counter looks up from his naughty magazines

"Oh, it's just you shut it" He says "let me guess, more movies and flashdrives, cup O noodles, maybe some energy drinks so you don't need to waste time asleep?"

"Actually" Maria says blushing "I, uh, need a book for caring for cats". the man behind the counter closes his magazines, places them down, puts a hand to his mouth

"Oh, does it have anything to do with the ever present Layla?" he asks

"N..no" Maria says quicklu

"So the rumors are true" He laughs "you two are a couple, oh I knew it, Fraust owes me twenty bucks now"

"n.no, I just need it for the grooming section" She says

"Riiiiiight" He says winking "going to get her in a shower, then bam, you'll have her when she's at her most vulnerable, genius"

"No...She just needs help showering right now due to" Maria begins

"YOUR TEENAGE HORMONES" Request guy shouts "So, I must ask, what did you two do with all that catnip"

"Layla rubbed her face on the car.."Maria stops as she realizes what she is saying, causing request guy to burst out laughing

"Fucking paper thing closet" He laughs "I won't ask questions, take the book and do what you will with her, whatever it is you intend, she deserves it". Maria, red as a beet, takes the book, and runs out

"Hmm" request guy thought outloud "I that catnip thing gives me an idea"

Haha, my sides. That entire thing.
Thanks for that.

>>35829788
This would be neat.

So he hasn't taken any missions yet?

Could we see some of morning dews reports on some other characters that do missions? Like Maria or Evaline?
In case you have ideas for that.

I didn't expect these...

>>35829842
Really want to get in some proper training soon.
Missions are fine, but i get the feeling we've done nothing but.

>>35829839
Maxwell Maxwell
Ok, I just want to say, challenging your target to a dual, then shooting him in the head, does not count as assassination

Mike fraust
Who the fuck let him into building E, cause they have the deaths of a south american village on their hands now

Evaline
Beating the target to death in the middle of a restroom is not "subtle"

>>35829855
It is the most "action" part. Although I think we could probably do a few sessions exploring the campus and discovering events.

>>35829867
>Mike fraust
>Who the fuck let him into building E, cause they have the deaths of a south american village on their hands now
Based Fraust. Thats why he is our favorite teacher.

>>35829867
>Maxwell Maxwell
Thats pretty classy I gotta admit. I'm sure Layla would approve.

>Fraust
Best. Teacher.
I wonder why he took that bet

>>35829881
He was bored with being unable to blow half the school to kingdom come

>>35829891
I'm sure we could help him there.

>>35829891
Im sure if Layla gets to swapping storys with him he will have a giggle at our wolf bomb story.

>>35829903
any other requests>

>>35829738
oh thats a good idea, have our nun once she's fully broken in and loyal be custodian of our castle

>>35829910

How about a day in the life of our spooky vampire stalker?

>>35829918
Day to day currently or before the brausrburge incident?

>>35829910
Most stuff I could think of would be background stuff, but I don't think thats a good idea.
Maybe a family scene of the Millers before Layla got spirited away (of afterwards). Not sure if thats much to write about.

>>35829910
>>35829804
Still waiting.

>>35829933
I can't think of anything besides her talking to the nun or something

>>35829937
Some of Layla's backstory would be cool.

>>35829937
That would be fine.

>>35829937
A short scene of that wouldn't be too bad. Its always interesting getting a third party perspective of the MC. Provided you can think of something, no need to force anything, maybe you get a idea in a later session.

>>35829937
Layla's school massacre from the viewpoints of one of the victims

<Miller household>
Elizabeth miller awoke with a start mostly due to the fact her sister had dropped her cat on her

"What was the for?" she asked her older sister, Layla

"You left it in my room again" She said bluntly

"Oh he just loves you" Elizabeth said holding onto the obese orange cat "don't know why he would"

"maybe it has to do with the catnip you keep rubbing into my blanket" Layla said "or something similar"

"Ehehehe" Elizabeth laughs"Maybe I did have something to do with that"

"Just keep him out of my room" her sister said as she left "lots of things he shouldn't get into in there"

"Like what?" she asked

"Things he shouldn't get into" Layla answered "simple isn't it, just please keep him out"

"Fine" Elizabeth said, releasing the cat "Oh and by the way, Dad was wondering what you were doing out so late last night"

"Getting some books" Her sister said "for school, lost my old ones a few days ago"

"Ooooh dad's going to kill you" She laughs, causing her sister to smile warmly

"Oh he can't do anything except make you feel guilty" Layla said "the man doesn't have a mean bone in his body". Elizabeth shrugs

"Oh and Tif and Eli want to know if you want to go visit" She said "You know you're the only one who hasn't visited them since they moved out"

"That's because I don't have the time" Layla said "too much work to do, too little time".

"Well maybe I can he" She began

"NO!!" her sister growled angrily "I can do it myself, I do not need any help, just forget about it okay?". Elizabeth nodded, as he sister left the room
She could be so weird some times, ah well

>>35830014
"Hey did you hea-!" *KABOOM*

>>35830063
There were survivors

>>35829929

Reminds me a bit of... I think it was a Stephen King novel, about a guy who got bit by a snake or something and was sent into a death-like paralyzis. He wakes up in a morgue just as the coroners are about to cut him up. He can feel everything they do to him, but can't do anything to signal that he is awake.

>>35830121
>10 am:admire Layla statue
For two hours no less. A minor miracle he let us go back then. But I suppose he got time.

>>35830132

>>35830136

>>35830098
She did seem like an ordinary highschool girl until the whole poisoning most of her old school, to an observer that is, and the people she knew, still don't have any clue she did it

>>35830154
The thing that got Maria in this school. From the perspective of "Maria"

>>35830182
If I remember that was killing her parents.
If I may add, either Marias coming to the academy, or her encounter with Layla from her perspective would be interesting. I enjoy Maria vision.

>>35830182
<Maria's old school>
Pain on my left cheek, something, hit me? tears on my face. What's happened here. hyenas laughing in my face, annoying, hurt the other me, have been antagonizing her for two years. Anger, hate. the only emotions I can grasp in the flurry of thoughts, can't even hear what they're saying and laughing about. Then a red glint catches my eye

I'm in the supply shed, and they locked the door, a smile spreads across my face as I realize what I must do to protect the other me. their screams are only slightly less annoying than their laughs. But it's over soon enough, messily, but efficiently. I can hear the other me screaming in the back of my mind, but I ignore her, there is still more danger around, I can hear their footsteps coming closer

.....
I awaken again, the faces of her parents screaming at her, phone in the mother's hand, father's hands on my coat, throwing her out? throttling her? What ever it is, it's a danger, and it must be snuffed out before it can harm her.

>>35830228
So each "Maria" is only vaguely aware of what the other is up to. "I can hear the other me screaming in the back of my mind" confirms that there is at least some level of knowledge about what the other one is doing.

>>35830228
I'd prefer to find this out in the quest proper, but I can't wait to see how the fanclub reacts to Layla's poison club

<room 1856>
I'm sitting at my laptop, happily browsing the web, when the door suddenly creaks open, oh, I forgot to lock it, again.
Instinctively, I grab my pistol and fire as I turn around, screaming in shock and fear as I do so. I blink behind my glasses as I see a girl a bit shorter than me with light brown hair. she stares at the gun for a moment before smiling and walking closer. I look at my gun and her, realizing I made a horrible mistake.

"My name's Layla" she says grabbing my shoulders, smiling wider than previously"I'm your new roommate, which means that we've both killed at least one person, so we already have something in common, isn't that wonderful Maria, I'm sure we'll be good friends, so long as you don't point a gun at me again".
Uuuuuuuuuh, she's scary

"And what if I do?" I ask my voice cracking in fear "I mean there are no rules against it, I don't mean I'd shoot you I just mean that, oh forget it". She grabs my hands, I feel my spine freeze

"Look, we're roommates aren't we?" she says tilting her head "we're supposed to get along, and if you point that gun at me again, Well, you'll find out, but I really don't want it to come to that ok?"

I don't want to die, worst time for my other half to ignore my peril
"Ok, just, please knock next time, you nearly gave me a heart attack" I say as she begins to wander around the room "a..and d..don't touch my things". She glares at me, and I shut up

>>35830278

Come to think of it, that is kinda weird in hindsight.
Is there a reason for this? Or had not thought of "Maria" yet?

>>35831188
That is boring, at least make it the Cheshire cat or something.

>>35833510
Maria could be our Alice.

>>35833510
Mad Catter? Mad hatter/Cheshire cat mix?

>>35835079
I think we should be cheshire, and Maria goes as the hatter.

>>35837622
Get Maria to pick, she needs more confidences anyway.

>>35838150
Pfft, she's OUR Maria. She will wear what we say she wears.

Besides, the Mad Hatter is awesome and fits Maria perfectly. Especially in that new Alice in Wonderland movie.

>>35839569
So we'll go as her Cat Alice?

>>35839746
Bingo

>>35839746
Makes sense in the context of "Maria." Otherwise Maria is a much better Alice.
