Become The Dragon Quest 23

You are Countess Kotijah Imidarius, and you want to be a dragon. You have known since your birth that you wanted to be one of them, to be among your ancestors, a true dragon. Instead you have been confined to something less, something lacking the grace, ferocity and raw power that you deserve.

Last time you met with Vein on the other side of the portal, having apparently knocked out and tied up Fiona, Gil and Sena. She told you she needed your help to save Millie and offered you intel to prove her trustworthiness, but you declined to help her for the time being. Upon learning that you have other plans already, Vein decided to come with you to prove she could be trusted, and she roused your companions so Gil could be healed.

You inspected your loot with Pirin, who asked for a ring. Turns out it conjures lightning swords that make things explode. You asked for it back and determined that you would divy up loot later, taking your haul and companions back to the inn. While Fiona and Sena healed Kat, you identified your magical items and let your friends take their pick, leaving you to decide what to do with the remainder some other time. Everyone started to head off to do their own thing, so you decided to play some fair games with Sena, leaving Vein with the ruby you found to make a magic item.
>>
The fair games were fun, with Sena conning a conman and you beating a bell ringing game despite a faulty hammer, earning a stuffed bear (Sir Bearington) and a stuffed rabbit (Squire Thumper) for Sena. Then you went to the fortuneteller and met with a poorly disguised Gimbly. Turns out he does care, and that he helped the men following him track you down to muddy your trail even further. The crystal ball he had with him was some kind of storage device for Millie, so you let her out and sat back to watch her tag team with Vein to kick some butt.

Gimbly led you off to dance after you decided to get your groove on, and Millie and Vein walked off to work on your magic item together. You learned the local dances for the party tonight, and gently spurned the advances of your dance teacher before Gimbly warned you about getting too involved with people and walking off to cause a stir and draw attention to himself. You wandered off to meet up with Kat and Gil as sunset approaches, and found them by the vendors.

She pauses and looks at Gil, blushing.

“A-a-a backrub! Yes! Nothing sexual at all. I'm in a loving and commited relationship, and I will be reminding myself of that fact all night long. Don't you worry about a thing.”

Gil looks at you for a moment, smirking, before turning back towards Kat.

"Good, otherwise I'd have to worry."

Kat does her best to pout adorably at him.

"Most guys would be really happy to have a threesome with his girlfriend and another cute girl."

Gil shrugs.

"Then I guess one of your potions broke me, because I'm only interested in you. Sorry, I guess you're stuck with a devoted and loyal boyfriend."

Kat giggles a bit and hugs him tightly before wincing.

"Ow, arm... I keep forgetting it's still not completely better yet..."

Gil pats her head gently.

"There there. Let's get you some cotton candy."

Kat leans on him a bit.

"The double size...?"

Gil nods.

"The double size. But you said you were watching your waist so I'm gonna eat half."

Kat pecks him on the lips before smiling at you.

"We're gonna get snacks before the vendors switch from fair food to stuff laced with every intoxicant you can think of. If you're hungry, snatch up what you can now."

Do you guys think the ring that cuts off one's connection to essence and grants immunity to divine and necromantic magic might shield us from our dragon ancestor? Or at least stop them from taking our soul?
>>
>>42939657
No since blight and divine magic are symptoms of having a soul, if anything it'd make it easier.
>>
>>42939672
I just figured that if it blocks things from entering, it might block things from leaving as well. I can't remember the soul's exact relation to essence but I'm given to understand that the soul is a specific composition of essence. So it might stop our soul from leaving-
>>
>>42939742
It negates essence, which makes up the soul. It'd be bad for possession resist.
>>
>>42940847
It cuts off the essence in a person's body from the essence outside it. It would trap your soul within your body if you turned into a dragon. This may or may not be a bad thing. I haven't actually decided yet.

"Actually, I'm famished. I'm gonna go grab one of those roast chickens before I starve to death."

Gil nods a little.

"Alright then. There should still be a few left, but I'd hurry. Oh, and tell him I sent you his way, he'll give you a discount. Just don't ask him why."

He turns and walks off, and Kat follows him with a giggle. You shrug, take a deep breath, and follow the aroma of cooked meat to its source. You arrive at the vendor's booth and sit down on a stool, peering over the counter at the skewers of meat and whole roasted chickens on display. The vendor grabs one and stabs a giant fork into it for a handle, smiling at you.

"What'll it be, lady? Mutton on a stick? Maybe a nice piece of steak?"

You point at the chicken.

"Gil sent me. I want one of those."

The man looks at the chicken, then at you, and laughs.

"I don't waste good meat, and mine is the best in town. There's no way you could finish the whole thing."

You pull out a gold piece.

"I'm carrying plenty more. If I don't finish the whole thing then you can have them. I'm famished."

The man nods and takes the coin from you.

"And if you can then you can have the coin back, along with an apology."

He hands you the chicken and smiles.

"Where I can see, lady. Don't go wandering off with that. You said you could finish it, so let's see."

I wonder if our digestive system has improved along with our draconic muscle. That is, could we eat it bones and all?

Also are many people reacting to our wings? Or are those sort of traits not that unusual to see?

I've been wondering about that too... How visible are our wings normally and how much do they stand out?

"Deal."

You bite into the chicken and smile. Delicious. You take another bite, munching and crunching into it. You pause and look at the chicken as you chew. Crunch? You can see bones sticking out of the chicken, broken from where your reinforced teeth bit through them.

"What, no good?"

The man looks at you with a hint of suspicion, like you're about to tell him his food isn't the tasty meal it is. You chew thoroughly and swallow.

"I said I'd eat the whole thing. And I'm going to. I was just savoring it."

You tear into it with wild abandon, crunching, tearing and biting with a smile on your face. You pass the empty fork back to the vendor, who looks stunned by your display, and you take the coin back.

"It was so good I had to eat the bones too."

The man nods numbly, and you turn and head for the center of the festival to track down Kat and Gil.

You make your way to the crowd, trying to find Gil and Kat. You can hear people around you starting to chant, and a quick glance tells you that the sun is about to set. People are jumping, shouting and cheering down the last few seconds, and you try to push your way through to find your friends to no avail. You could take to the air to find them, it would probably be easy, but then you run the risk of being spotted with your wings out. Then again, this is a festival of the night, so you might be able to get away with it.

You leap up and grab onto the shoulders of the man in front of you, pushing up and into the air. You focus your magic to lighten your body and jump from his shoulders into the air, spreading your wings and flapping to gain some altitude. From up here it's a lot easier to spot people. You can see Gimbly demonstrating a magic trick to two young women, Fiona pointing you out to her fellow members of the church excitedly, and Pirin drifting above the crowd with a drink, watching the sunset.

At last you spot Gil and Kat, right by the stage being put together in the middle of the crowd. As the crowd hits the last ten seconds, Fiona and the other priests leap onto the stage, each leading a portion of the crowd in counting down. You land at the last second, Fiona and her fellows casting off their white robes to reveal black underneath, and the crowd goes wild, everyone drinking, kissing, hugging and celebrating.

The sky instantly darkens, and in a matter of seconds the stars shine dazzlingly bright, illuminating the festival as the moon moves to the center of the sky. Kat is smoking her pipe and kissing Gil, while Gil is doing shots of some sort of brew between kisses. Music begins to play, and the crowd starts to shift and move.

Alright, there will be drinking, dancing and smoking of things Kat offers. I want you guys to roll and then I'll summarize the night.

Strength roll, no skill, for alcohol tolerance.
Smarts roll, no skill, for whatever Kat gives you.
Speed roll plus ballroom dance for dancing. Yes, the dances are different but after the party and all the dancing, ballroom dance will become generalized to Dance.

And lastly, a Sleuth roll plus Focus for how well you keep track of your night.

You wake up the next morning with the worst headache you've ever experienced. Well, to call it waking up would be overstating things somewhat. At least you've finally managed to come down from the high. You don't feel like you've been up all night, surprisingly. You feel well-rested, if more than a bit hung over, and slowly you piece together the events of the night before. You're in a wagon, and your right hand feels warm. You look over at it and find that it's missing, and in your panic you let go of what you had been holding, yanking your arm back and finding it back where it belongs. Odd. You start at the beginning, taking a slow breath as you sit up and hold your aching head.

The first part of the festival was the wildest, with loud music and dancing. You had a few drinks and a few pulls from Kat's pipe and cut loose, dancing with groups of people. After a while you took off your cloak when a few people asked about your wings and took flight, doing spins and tricks for the amusement of the crowd. A few more drinks in and you started to talk about your quest, and how you killed a dragon, and Pirin was quick to step in and tell the tale for you while you sat back, smoking and drinking and enjoying the spectacle.

After a few hours the dancers and musicians started to tire, and the scene shifted to one of relaxation and calm. People told stories around fires, traded drinks, couples wandered off to be alone, and there was a sense of ease in the air. People who wanted heavier substances indulged themselves, and the crowd shifted somewhat, some people moving to a special area for what you presume to be some sort of orgy, though it was actually pretty tasteful considering they had their own tent set up for it and no sound escaped from it.
>>
At around midnight, at least, what felt like midnight, Fiona approached you. She got particularly cozy with you, making all sorts of advances that you gently deflected. It wasn't because you didn't want to do... whatever it was she had been implying, but you knew you were too drunk and too high on whatever you had been smoking to tell the difference between a good idea and a bad idea, and told her to wait til you sobered up before asking again. She seemed to take it well, at least, you think she did. You're not really all that sure. Had she been crying? You should probably talk to her about it.

When you realized you were surrounded by strangers you stumbled around to the inn and bumbled your way into the stables to lay down and cool off. The party had been tons of fun and you felt great, but the world was beginning to spin a little, so you curled up in the hay in the back of a wagon. You feel a sudden pang of guilt, remembering overhearing a couple hiding behind the inn getting cuddly, hearing one of them talk about how nice it felt to fall asleep beside someone. You look at your hand again, at the ring on your finger, and realize that's what you had been doing. You just can't remember for the life of you whose hand you had decided to hold as you drifted away.

>>
>>42947726

You decide to go and see Fiona first, since that's probably the easiest task. You dust yourself off and do what you can to make yourself presentable before heading back towards the main area. People are packing up, cleaning up and slowly recovering, many in the same state as you. Everyone seems pleased though, many offering you small nods, even the people you don't remember.

You find the priests at the center, taking turns eating from a plate that they're passing around in a circle. Fiona has her back to you, and one of the priests taps her on the shoulder as you approach. She looks over at you and smiles.

"Kotijah! Good morning!"

Fiona has long since ditched her makeup, but you can still see some of the smudges she missed. She was crying last night after all. You've got a choice. You told her to wait until you were sober enough to properly consider her request, and now you are, mostly. You could tell her you're not interested and let her down gently to avoid issues down the road, or tell her you are and have to wait until tonight to find out exactly how far she was asking you to go.

Wrong, Kot hasn't displayed sexuality in either case but is now going "hey, let's fuck!" To someone who is almost a complete stranger and likes her not for herself but for highly romanticized notions of what she may be.
>>
>>42948428
Being open-minded is exactly what it says on the tin. You're right, she hasn't expressed or explored her sexuality in either case. That's why she's not jumping Fiona, just explaining that she's not going to reject her outright.
>>
>>42948472
So, basically, open-minded and >>42948349 are the same deal?
>>
>>42948472

>>42948479
Kinda, yeah. It's "I'm willing to explore this option, on my terms and at my pace", not "take me now and show me what heaven is, priestess!"
>>
>>42948472
I just wanna do the /u/ option to stick it to Allegiset.

>>42948692
Allegiset's desires are ideally going to be vanishingly temporary, and the only reason he had a problem with Taret was because he's a likely candidate for being this cycle's Star Knight. If there is actually a blood thing, the problem would still be there, because Ragizal are still half-human.
>>
>>42948692
Considering Razigals are groomed to be replacement bodies for the monster in question, he'd have a massive problem. Likely due to
A) another dragonlord trying tog et reborn
B) someone of his bloodline doing something they shouldn't be able to do.

With her vagina.

"Good morning. Hey, can I talk to you for a bit?"

Fiona nods.

"Yes, of course."

She rises to her feet, bows to the group, and lets you lead her off, away from the crowds. You take a moment to try to find the right words to say, and then face her with a small smile.

"I like you. You're a nice person, you've got my best interests in mind, and you've helped me out a lot. So, about what you asked me last night..."

Fiona turns bright red.

"I-I-I was drunk, forget about it..."

You shake your head.

"I just wanted to say that if that's really how you feel, and if I feel the same way as time goes on, I'd be alright with it."

Fiona nods a bit, smiling sheepishly.

"Thank you... I won't let you down."

You nod a bit before pausing.

"What exactly... did you ask me by the way? I only remember part of it."

Fiona turns the brightest red you've ever seen and mumbles her reply.

"I didn't quite catch that."

Fiona closes her eyes tightly.

"I-I... you to... um... W-Well, I was... inspired by Vein... I wanted to... Oh, I can't say it..."

It doesn't take a genius to work out that she wanted to do something involving heavy metal chains.

>>
>>42948867

Who'd be slave and who'd be master?

Fiona has the experience but I can't see Kot get dominated, even in lurve making.

In your end. Oh. BTW. Different anons.

I'm for a omnisexual Kotijah. No limits!

I saw the opportunity, I had to take it. I regret nothing but that it annoyed you.

I suppose it can connect with that.

>>42949012
Nah.
>>
>>42949050
So you want to jump her bones immediately.
>>
I'm gonna settle the sexuality issue with a chart. I have one I use for determining the sexuality of my own characters for tabletop games (rarely does it ever come up but it has in the past), so we're gonna have someone roll 2d10 and then I will sit on the answer and unveil it when it's appropriate to the situation, as Kotijah herself comes to understand the situation.

Or we could argue on the internet some more.
>>
>>42949100
I like the
>>42949034
Compromise at least.
Better than rolling i'd say.
>>
Rolled 4, 8 = 12 (2d10)

>>42949100
Come on Hetero, counter all the /u/ on the board
>>
>>42949100
You roll it. /tg/ will always go full yuri and shun anything male unless the Qm dictates it.
>>
>>42949100
There's only one guy that really seems to have a problem with the potential for both male and female romance, and even he's been relatively civil about it and didn't samefag.

So, no, that sounds really stupid and bizarre.

Unless we're talking about particular fetishes rather than gender attraction?

In which case that's even worse somehow.
>>
>>42949100
To be fair, sexuality is a large part of a person's identity that exists in a broad range and should not be given generic labels for how people feel for one another.

>>42949097
Take her out on a proper date.

Then sleep with her one the third one.

In between that? Intense hand holding!
>>
>>42949100
I don't think rolling for sexual preference is a good idea and should have been done earlier if so considering we already had romance before. For all we know we could have been gay then.
>>
>>42949183
This is why bisexual is best.
>>
>>42949210
>I'm not gay just bi!
>never even looks at a guy, only girls
/tg/ bi in a nutshell
>>
I think Kotijah is still a virgin since her dad scared away all the boys interested in her. Plus people don't choose their sexual orientation so a dice roll is ok with me.
>>
>>42949100
No, because the only people that would want that are the ones obsessed with preventing /u/ regardless of the character for some obnoxious reason or another and deciding this with a dice roll will probably piss the losing side off at you.
>>
>>42949100
I vote for bisexual
>>
You know what, the dice are a terrible plan. Instead of using the "2 on the Kinsey Scale" space, let's go with popular opinion, which is... pretty much the same...? Kinda?

I leave for, what, a day, and I miss all the arguing? How dissappointing.

>>42949335
>fade to black
Nope blatant yuri bondage and rape and you'll have to write all of it out! Black will have nothing to do with it.


>>42949357
Anon please, we both know guys are gross. Black's advances on us never should have been written out.
>>
Shit, how about for once we play an asexual character instead? Just to try something new.
>>
>>42949330
I'm still for getting Sir Blacked

Doesn't mean we're tied down or anything.
>>
>>42949330
>Guy tries to woo us
One guy was into us and was only able to do it because our friends forced him down our throat.
Yeah, no, if we could say yes to him we can at least give her a try.
>>
>>42949373
That has happened in quests and it pretty much made it a bit boring from time to time.
Go find one if you want, but it's not worth it to make no one be happy.
>>
>>42949355
Pretty much, yeah.

>>42949363
Grow up.
>>
>>42949373
I would back this.

Dragons so obsessed with their self-image they fall in love with it. Sounds neat.
>>
>>42949357
Except when a dragon came down on us for Black, and we caved. Watch us tell him off when he tries to do that for Fiona.

>>42949375
Yeah you realize first person we say yes to in a quest thread always becomes the true love unless they die? Even then.

>>42949380
>Saying yes to him
Fucking when? Allegsiet came down on us and we caved and told him a resounding not interested.
>>
>>42949373
>I've lost at shutting down /u/, and at the possibility to get /u/ removed by dice, time for my last gambit - asexuality!
>>
>>42949413
Anon I am grown up, that's why I can say all men are disgusting and should be ignored. Yuri is the only true love.


>>42949445
Exactly! Why must they deny true pure love?
>>
>>42949442
>Saying yes to him
Every time he made an advance we saw it fit to keep letting him on with the options that was closest to throwing ourselves at him until the end when we were supposed to leave, and then some made it fit for us to say a last goodbye and promise to return to him or some shit like that.
>>
You take a moment to think about what she just said.

"Let's... take things slow. In the interest of honesty, there's a knight trying to win my heart, a bard who I think is trying some roundabout method of seducing me, and I think Sena is either treating me like family or showing signs of a budding crush. Things are complicated. I need time to sort it all out, and time to figure out this... chains thing. I'm not saying no, I'm saying that if you want a yes, give me time to work out what I want."

Fiona nods a little.

"Time is something I have plenty of. I... I can wait for you. I'm happy to know that you're not refusing me completely. Um... I... Sorry, excuse me..."

She turns and runs off, leaving you standing there, watching her go. Being up front was what your father always taught you to do, and at least she knows what she's signing up for now.

>Chase after her
>Let her go, you need time to think
>Other (write-in)
>>
>>42949442
> told him a resounding not interested
Please reread those threads, anon. We didn't tell him anything, neither a yes nor a no.
>>
>>42949499
>>Let her go, you need time to think
>>
>>42949442
>Except when a dragon came down on us for Black, and we caved
By which you mean began plotting to find some way to get Allegiset to fuck off? Because only one guy was voting for actually caving, the rest wanted to either tell him off then and there or appease him then begin planning to find a way to not give a fuck eventually.

Pissing off the guy that could fuck you up with his true name isn't a good idea.

We said yes to him to the same degree as we're now saying yes to Fiona - you can try to win my heart if you want.
>>
>>42949499
> Let her go
Why do you give us options like these, OP? You're just causing more shitstorm.
>>
>>42949499
>Let her go, you need time to think

>>42949473
Because people like you keep turning all the female main characters in quests into lesbos. That shit gets old

Also, dragon didn't give a shit about us being with black. He just didn't want us reproducing with him and making his descendants worse by diluting the dragon part of our offsprings genetics
>>
>>42949544
Because there's always a write-in option. Because there is always the oncoming shitstorm waiting to happen.
>>
>>42949583
Actually I really doubt he cares about the bloodline either. He's worried about us falling for the prime candidate for this cycle's Star Knight. That would probably hurt his bodysnatcher plans.
>>
>>42949499
I don't think we meant to say that she'd wait for our answer considering we have to get to know her better first, that kind of defeats the point doesn't it? I mean that's like keeping her a minor character with no possibility to interact with.
>Other (write-in)
Chase after her and say that we also meant that we'd really like to get to know her first
>>
>>42949618
Pretty sure that was implied, and if it she doesn't get it, she's more interested in the goddess-that-is-not-and-may-never-be-us than the girl-who-is-us
>>
>>42949615
Yeah but we gotta make him submit to his own hypocrisy.

We know its about the star knight, but he decided to use the bloodline thing as an excuse.
>>
>>42949583
So does complaining about losing a vote for twelve threads.
>>
>>42949668
> I'm saying that if you want a yes, give me time to work out what I want
That's like saying stay back until i have my answer, which is the exact opposite of what we were trying to relay to her.
And considering her reaction:
>Time is something I have plenty of. I... I can wait for you. I'm happy to know that you're not refusing me completely
She saw it as having to back off too.
>>
>>42949692
I don't think we're actually supposed to still know about Star Knights and Raguzil and the reincarnation cycle and whatnot due to Allegiset's attempted mind-rape, if we bring any of them up, he might get suspicious.
>>
>>42949583
>Kot goes full Amazonian after experimenting with one girl.

I think real lesbians would be offended.
>>
>>42949735
So we turn the blood line thing back on him.

>I'm not having sex, I can date whoever I want!
>Plus. There are like tons of birth control both mundane and magic.
>>
>>42949499
How is Let's take things slower meant to be "back off and give me time"?
>>
>>42949804
I don't see what concession that would be getting from him? He just didn't want us to reproduce and made that clear, bringing that up would just antagonize him for no change.
>>
>>42949692
That's never going to happen because of his bodysnatcher plan and his memory wipe ability.

If he finds out we know he'll either mind scrub us very thoroughly or possess us depending on our progress.

>>42949804
Yeah he'd still bitch at us and curse us more than likely.
>>
>>42949848
"Much, much slower."

She took what you said the wrong way and ran off before you got to the part about getting to know her more. You're free to chase her down and explain what you actually meant.

I was complaining about how annoyingly this guy was being.
>>42949473
>>
>>42949951
Then what kind of person wouldn't chase after her? I mean come on, the options you gave us were either Much slower, i'll try it out sometime, or this won't work out. Sure we could have used a write-in, but i thought slower meant let's go out sometime, or get to know eachother first.
>>
>>42950032
>I was complaining about how annoyingly this guy was being.
I thought he was a particularly childish hetfriend having a tantrum and acting like an extreme parody, to be honest.

You hustle after her and grab her wrist, pulling her to a halt gently but firmly.

"I'm not finished. I can't give you an answer, but that doesn't mean that I don't want you around. How can I give you an answer if I don't know you?"

Fiona turns towards you, covering her face with her free hand.

"I... but... I'm sorry, I just assumed..."

You release her wrist and smile.

"Don't assume. Look, if you're free later then let's do something. I hardly know you, so let's fix that."

She nods and rubs her eyes, smiling.

"I'd like that... I have to go finish preparing for the day, maybe... lunch?"

You nod.

"Lunch."

Fiona heads off, and you turn your attention to other matters.

Nope, just came waaaaay too close. BTQM says deaths are final. No Resurrection magic unless you have bullshit blood powers like Allegsiet.
>>
>>42950615
We almost died, there's a difference since we were literally 2 point away with our roll for it.
>>
>>42950589
I feel precisely the same way. I'm just glad you guys put up with my mistakes.

Alright, time to try to remember who you drunk dialed for hand holding via portal. Smarts roll.

It will also defend against magic that we won't have time to focus on/react against (like when locked in melee we wouldn't get the focus bonus).
>>
We should ask Fiona to teach us Divine magic. It will help us cleanse blight, heal, and possibly strengthen our soul for when Allegsiet tries to possess us. Also she can teach Sena too, and maybe heal Kat's arm.
>>
>>42950862
Whaddya think lunch is about?
>>
>>42950893
Getting to know her so we can experiment with her.

>>42950911
That...and talking about divine stuff.

She wants to help us go dragon too.

More than any of our friends in fact.
>>
>>42950893
Getting to genuinely know her, then maybe throw that in somewhere since divine magic is a part of her life..
>>
>>42950973
Mostly due to the fact we convinced her we're the second coming. She's got legit mental issues.
>>
>>42951012
Most zealots do.

But if we're right she can become Saint Fiona.

>>42951051
We'll need to get to a comfortable day/night balance then. Like with Lord Sol and Lady Noct did.

You try to clear your head of the haze of the hangover and remember who you reached out to, and you feel an odd jolt as your mind connects once more to your racial memory. You only retain fragments of the experience, but you manage to focus it, digging up the memory you were looking for.

You only had a few points of reference. A few people you could reach out to. You had tried Taret first, but he was on the move and didn't take your hand, the portal hanging in the air behind him. So you nudged Cenere and he did as you asked, holding your hand while you slept, comforting you and offering you guidance.

As for the scraps of memory, you saw something, the face of a man with a sword of starlight, and felt what your ancestor felt in that moment. Fear, anger, pain. The next flash of memory they you could make out confuses you. The swirl of rose petals and the feeling of falling.

At least your mystery is solved.

>Write-in

I'm gonna turn in for the night.

Side note, I just want to say thanks for all the kind words. This week has been rough so far, and tomorrow I have an interview for this sales job thing that will finally give me a fulltime job with decent pay and actual health benefits. I know it's dumb to try to juggle so much at once, but this quest means a lot to me. You guys mean a lot to me too. This feels important, and thank you so much for coming along for the ride with me. Updates will be sparse tomorrow, I have a split shift (opening, leaving in the middle of the day, then coming back to close) and the interview is at 2 while I'm off from work, but if things go well then I intend to celebrate with you guys. And if they don't, then it'll be consolation.

So tomorrow night, expect a little side story fun. Or something. I dunno, we'll figure it out. Night folks. Until next time.

There are probably sects of the church that cram all their "night" activities into one night and go full Rakdos, sure, but that's not what the general population is prepared to accept. They just want to drink, make merry and enjoy themselves.

You decide the next thing to do is to cross "checked up on the magic item" off your to-do list, and you head back to the inn. There's a large metal spike sticking out of the roof now, and you feel a sense of foreboding as you open the door to your room. Millie, Sena and Vein are all sitting around chatting, and the ruby is in a bottle on the bedside table, occasionally rattling around as though alive. Millie spots you and dives at you, hugging tight.

"We're finished! Now we just need something to make the magic flow through!"

Vein huffs a bit.

"I still thing dissolving it into her blood would be the better option considering the amount of magical gear she has."

Sena pouts.

"That's gross. And won't the magic leak out if she gets hurt?"

Vein pauses.

"Her bones then."

"Any other options besides turning my bones into crystal or whatever? I mean, don't get me wrong, I love the concept, but if it's going to mess with my magic or hamper my flight, no thanks."

Vein grumbles, and Millie pauses for a moment.

"We want something that won't interfere with your magic items, so it has to be part of you... Something you won't lose like blood..."

Sena walks over to you.

"If we can make it a liquid, can't we just tattoo her? Then if it needs fixing we can just redraw it, we won't need to poke her heart or something."

Millie nods.

"But tattoos are for barbarians, sailors and prostitutes."

Vein laughs.

"Is that what Tirio told you?"

Millie blinks.

"...I want one now, just to show I'm not his anymore..."

Outside of oral sex is there any purpose for that?

>A tattoo is a big commitment, give it some thought and see how mine comes out
Speaking from experience, you want to spend at least a week thinking about the design to try and make sure it isn't something you'll regret or think of as silly or embarrassing when your mind inevitably changes.
>>
>>42958725
That's pretty awesome all things considered.
>>
>>42958584

>Any other bright ideas?

I don't like the idea of overloading a tattoo with magic. Plus they're gross!

You nod a bit.

"Go for it if you really want to, but make sure that it's what you want. It's a big commitment, you'll have it forever."

Millie nods.

"I've considered it for a time frame functionally equivalent to three years by this point. I know what I want."

She walks over to the bottle.

"We'll dissolve this and make ink out of it. I can make my own later. Since this won't take up a lot of room, maybe we can use it as a battery for other magic tattoos..."

Never been a fan of the walking canvas aesthetic, in reality or fiction.

Any anons have tattoos?

I got seven myself. All done by my old man and generally all unseen when I wear normal attire.
>>
>>42958856
>I would rather not have my body turned into a canvas, I like my current look
>>
>>42958945
Err, aren't those kind of mutually exclusive? One says cover them up, the other says i don't want a tatoo.
>>
>>42958856
>As long as I can cover them up, sure thing
>I feel positively about covering my body in magic ink that lets me do cool things
>>
>>42958975
I.E. one or a few that we can cover are fine, but it's not a habit, and we're not going to fill up every space that can be covered up on our body.
>>
>>42959005
Fair enough i guess...
>>
>>42958856
>I feel positively about covering my body in magic ink that lets me do cool things
>As long as I can cover them up, sure thing
I'd be fine with getting a lot of tattoos as long as it's for magic stuff.
>>
>>42959005
I say depends on what other kinds of magic tats are avalible.

Probably have a limited amount anyway. Like with magic items with their magic interfering with each other.
>>
"So long as I don't turn into an art exhibit and I can cover them up, it sounds fine to me. We can work out the details later. For now, let's get that protection under my skin."

Millie nods and opens the bottle, sticking her finger inside. Little bolts shoot from her fingertip to the ruby, which begins to melt.

"When do you want it? Back? Chest? If it's going to be a battery is should be central."

Right in between the wings. So it looks like our wings is its wings.

Oh god, i love this idea and i was even one of the ones that wanted it on the heart.
>>
>>42960752
Sounds good.
>>
>>42960781
A blade with a rose around it.

Perfect for over the heart.

Symbolic too.
>>
>>42961151
I'd have wanted the OP picture for the heart if that had won.
>>
>>42961186

Maybe sword and dragon over heart?

We use the same enchantment as the gloves to store the star sword in ink!
>>
>>42961374
That's a pretty cool picture at least, maybe if we later get an ink magic that lets us temporarily conjure a sword using some of our SP, it'd fit perfectly.
That is if sword conjuring is a thing.
>>
>>42961405
Lightning sword ring anon
>>
>>42961428
Oh yeah... can't believe i forgot about that one... Maybe inkify the ring and make it a tattoo then?
>>
Hopefully the process isn't too long.

We still got lunch with Fiona.
>>
>>42961526
I'd doubt it would take too long and since it's probably still pretty early in the morning i'd say we have time even if it's a magic tattoo.
>>

"We'll work out a start date for you within the next few days. Welcome aboard."

Well, time to celebrate.

So, about the lightning sword. Did you guys decide if you want to ask about that?
>>
>>42963863
Don't break it down, but maybe give it to Millie since she didn't have a chance to get a gift.
>>
>>42963863
Either ask them if we can break it down into a tattoo for us, or keep it as a reserve weapon.
>>
>>42963954
>>42964104
I'm fine with these.
>>
>>42963863
>>42964104
This, we need something if our sword would be knocked away, otherwise we'd be basically defenseless.
>>
>>42964185
>claws, back up knifes, fire magic
>>
>>42964269
We have brawling 1
Sure, we can do magic, but that won't do if we loose it in the middle of melee.
>>
>>42964288
We're still strong as hell and can train the other disciplines anon. Given Millie is a storm elemental she'd get a lot more mileage out of the sword anyways, and she didn't get a gift from the hoard like her sister did.
>>
>>42964406
We don't have to give away every single treasure we have use of, she wasn't even near when it happened so we have no obligation to give something to her, unless we're bringing home treasures and artifacts to everyone just for the hell of it.
>>
>>42964496
Kotijah the Charitable
>>
>>42964496
We gave Vein and Kat treasures when they did NOTHING to help us get the shit in the first place. Why wouldn't we give Millie one she could use and likely supercharge?
>>
>>42964609
Because we need it, we've already given away things that we could need, but fitted others better. However this is something we NEED since we've only been lucky so far that we haven't lost our sword temporarily in a fight.
Millie is a mage and wouldn't even use the sword as much as we'd use it.
>>
>>42964649
Serve Black better.

But just ask Millie if she wants it or not.
>>
>>42964684
Or don't ask, she hasn't expressed any interest in it and we need it. It's our hoard and you don't just give that out like it's no big deal. And we have actual use of it.
>>
>>42964649
>>42964742
She can use it we can't without a tattoo and lightning =/= dragon fire. Also we may not be able to break down an existing item without side effects.
>>
>>42964813
>Also we may not be able to break down an existing item without side effects.
We don't know that, maybe we should ask for more information about that, but i don't see any side effects if done correctly.
>She can use it we can't without a tattoo
What made you think that? We've seen that dude before use it when it's in ring form.
>>
Let's just continue for now, i'm too tired to argue right now... Maybe ask for more information before making a decision or something.
>>
>>42964962
This vote was only ever about asking.
>>
>>42964860
the fact they're saying we have too many magic items on us to sue safely.
>>
"Quick question... Can you turn an item into ink?"

Millie nods.

"If it's high quality or low power then it wouldn't be an issue."

You nod a bit. The ring is high quality, no doubt about that.

"Let's get started then. Right in the center of my back, a dragon, so that it looks like my wings belong to it. I might have something in mind for the second one depending on how this goes."

Millie smiles brightly.

"That sounds cool! It'll look awesome!"

Vein cackles a bit.

"If we tweak it a little then we should give it wings of its own too, since you could suppress your own magic to feed it. You'd lose your wings and stuff, but you could top up your reserve while you wait."

Sena starts scribbling and smiles, holding up her sketch.

"Alright, let's do this!"

You strip down a bit and sit on the bed, Sena in front of you holding up her picture and Millie and Vein behind you, casting spells and chanting. You feel something cool on your back that rapidly heats up, and then raw, harsh pain as the ink is forced through your skin all at once, pushing into the flesh underneath. Millie continues to chant as Vein shapes the tattoo, the pair working in concert.

You manage to grit your teeth and bear the pain, and towards the end Sena moves to your side to begin healing your back. You feel a warm cloth on your back, Sena chanting quietly as she, you presume, washes away the blood and cleans you up. You take a slow breath as the pain finally subsides, and Millie moves to your lap.

"So we can change the words to control it if you like, but they're Slumber, Awaken, and Rampage for off, on and full suppression. As for the fire, just focus and direct the power."

I was debating between something starring Ruby and Taret and explaining what they're up to, or something about mom and dad. I might just write it out a side story.
