Alright! Not sure if I'll be able to stay up for the whole run, but I'm looking forward to it all the same.

“We’d better get them to bed.” You say. “Is your room big enough for all of us? I think we need to keep an eye on Abigail, at least.”

Laki nods. “Yeah. But I get to mess with her.”

“Shyou wish!” Abigail flops against the Laki. Laki doesn’t even need to use her arms as the tiny girl can’t push her any more than she could push an oak tree. “Come on. Drunk *hic* off my tiny delicious butt I can still outwit you.”

Laki raises an eyebrow. She answers back by lifting Abigail under one arm and carrying her to her room, displaying her pure physical dominance and sort of making her own argument about how smart Abigail has to be to try to tick off someone who can do that. “Grab Keira.” Laki tells you and Hana.

You and Hana look at each other as Laki carries her redheaded luggage to the room.

“I’ll get her. “ Hana says, volunteering so you don’t have to strain yourself.

Hana bends down and picks her up. You can tell Hana is still a tiny bit tired and sore herself from that work at the construction site. She really overdid it.

“Hey, Hana.” Keira smiles sleepily. “What’s going on.”

“Just waking you up because it’s time to go to bed.” Hana jokes, hitching the smaller priestess up onto her back. “We’re going to Laki’s room. It’s going to be a little crowded though.”

“I don’t mind.” Keira says. “I miss it. Crowded sleeping arrangements.” She sighs.

“They can be fun.” Hana thinks about something else as you make your way up the stairs. “Herb, it’s going to be really crowded and probably hot in the room. Maybe it’s a good thing if your pokemon sleep outside today.”

Oh. You didn’t think about that.


>Sure. That makes sense.
>Maybe you’ll keep them all in their balls so they’re still close by
>Nah. They’ll crowd the room a little but you’re sure it’ll be fine
>Try to assess Keira’s drunkeness, if any.
>Something else

>>2557126
>>Sure. That makes sense.
>>Maybe you’ll keep them all in their balls so they’re still close by

For the life of me I can't remember if it's been explained about what it's like inside the ball, it's like a blink of an eye for them right? Or was that just for the professor's porygon with Kat's pokedex.

>>2557126
>Sure. That makes sense.

They don’t sleep with us when we bone down either.
They can sleep with Wailord, Onix, et all.

>Wish your Pokémon goodnight.

>>2557126
>>Sure. That makes sense.

>>2557126

Gobble and Mace can keep them in line easily enough.

“Sure, that makes sense.” You say. “You guys will look after each other, right?”

Gobble, Mace both take their charge seriously. Bella acknowledges it but she’s more playful and almost eager to have something go wrong. She seems a bit bored lately and without a battle or challenge you worry she might get up to mischief with her energy. Sorbet, who usually avoids eye contact when this sort of thing comes up actually looks a little eager to prove herself. Not too eager, but a little. Dice gives you a nice little nibble on the hand after you pet him and it melts your heart. Cubone’s still outside, practicing.

“Good night, everyone. Don’t be afraid to let me know if you need anything. Sleep tight!”

Gardevoir follows the pokemon. It feels a little weird because sometimes it’s hard to think of her as one or the other. But every once in awhile she does seem to remind you that she’s more pokemon than anything.

“Oh, bye Gardevoir” Hana says, hitching Keira up again. “Guess I can’t be too greedy.” She mutters to herself as she carries the priestess up the stairs.

You get to the door of Laki’s room.

“Hana you smell funny.” Keira says.

“Funny?” Hana’s eyes go wide in alarm. You see her half raise an arm to smell but she stops herself because everyone is looking.

“You got tanned. I can smell it. I bet you have lots of funny tanlines.”

Hana laughs. “Yeah. I- wait, you probably do too. Why don’t we compare in the room? See where that goes? Maybe play some games.” She opens the door, letting you see Laki trying to stop a rambunctious Abigail from bouncing all over the room. She’s somehow stolen most of the pillows and crawled up onto a high shelf in Laki’s closet, claiming she’ll sleep up there.

It'll feel weird if we do something while Abby is drunk.

>>2557360
A lot of stuff happened during the game, if I'm vaguely remembering things right. I'm not advocating something like what we did with Hana, definitely. Just ridiculous stuff in general.

You guess it’ll take awhile for everyone to settle in. Passing the time with some games or something sounds fun. You enter into the room and close the door after Hana carries Keira in.

But before that, you’ve got a redhead to wrangle.

“Abigail. Come on down.” You step in to help Laki.

“No!” She throws a pillow. It misses Laki and hits you. “I’ve got the ammo to hold my position until my demands are- *hic* until my demandsh are met!”

You look to Laki for an explanation. She sighs. “She wants sleepwear to help her precious modesty.”

“You didn’t bring any?” Hana asks.

“Nothing I’m *hic* wearing in front of you.” Abigail retorts. Hana looks a little disappointed, but not hurt. “I don’t want you gettin’ any ideas.”

“The bigger a deal you make it, the more ideas people are going to have. And I think you know that.” Laki says, having no patience for Abigail’s games. “I’ve got lots you can wear.”

“Your clothes suck.” Abigail says. The giggle she fails to contain after betrays her intentions. She probably doesn’t think that, but she’s trying to get a rise out of Laki.

“My clothes are great!” Laki retorts, taking the bait anyway.

“Youuuuuuuuuuuuu haven’t even tried anything on but the clothes you packed for your *hic* journey!”

Laki’s hands subtly reach around her body “Well, most of them don’t fit well anymore...” Laki “Come on. Just put this on.” Laki tosses up an old shirt.

“I will if you do.” Abigail points to you. “Unless you’ve got a better deal. My *hic* terrorism is extremely reasonable.”

Well at least she admits what it is.

>No way. Abigail can wear your old clothes
>Fine. Wear some of Laki’s old clothes if it’ll get Abigail down
>Just grab her and bring her down. She’s light, you bet you could do it
>Nah. You can stay up there.
>Something else

>>2557470
>No way. Abigail can wear your old clothes

>>2557470
>>Fine. Wear some of Laki’s old clothes if it’ll get Abigail down
Sounds easy enough

>But oh my god if it's a sweater or something that droops and goes over Herb's hands I will squee like a girl.

>>2557470
>Fine. Wear some of Laki’s old clothes if it’ll get Abigail down

It’s not like Herb hasn’t already been as intimate as possible with Laki.

Besides, he can probably pull it off better than Abi, and that’ll be fun for Laki to rub in her face.

>>2557470
>Fine. Wear some of Laki’s old clothes if it’ll get Abigail down
>If you stay up there you'll miss out on all the slumber party games

Just grabbing her has a similar feel to how Herb formed the Salmate thing in the first place. The whole physical conquest angle. So tempted.

>>2557470
>Fine. Wear some of Laki’s old clothes if it’ll get Abigail down
>Fine, I'll wear it. And you know what, I'll wear her clothes better than you do so *nyeh*

“Fine!” You say, pulling your shirt off. “And I’ll wear it better than you.”

“Hana your grip is getting too tight.” Keira, still getting a piggyback from Hana, complains.

“Sorry.” Hana apologizes but with a very excited look on her face. “I’m just having a good night.”

“Soft Hands. You don’t have to.”

“It’s okay. “ You assure her, but turn around to give Abigail a challenging look. “Got any suggestions?”

Laki opens her drawers for you to investigate and you dig through, finding the best outfit you can make. You hate how amazing you come end up looking, even if it’s just a relatively normal if feminine shirt and old comfy sweats. Honestly this doesn’t really feel like drag that much. Laki’s got a lot of boyish clothes. There’s still a slight feminine edge to them, though. The trim on these pants especially, they’re really tight around the ground and seat.

Abigail slides down, rustling through Laki’s clothes, making a lot of comments and jokes when she reaches the underwear drawer. “You really just exploded one day, huh? These go from normal to massive.”

Laki grinds her teeth, but holds back. “Yeah, well, when you start developing you can choose your own bras. You’ll need one some day, I’m sure.”

There’s a little standoff between the two, but they don’t let it get out of control. Laki tosses a shirt at Abigail, who then goes into the closet and closes the door to put it on.

“Bras really aren’t fun.” Keira says. “That’s why I never wear them.”

“I felt that.” Hana mutters, flexing her shoulder blades.

“Well, I don’t really have a lot of a choice.” Laki says, wanting to move on from the subject.

“So!” Hana says. “Tanlines! Let’s seem them.”

Abigail bursts out of the closet wearing an oversized sports jersey. “Hey someshing I’m good at!” Abigail blurts out, showing some shoulder.

Wait, that jersey was an option?!?! Oh wow, her legs are blindingly pale.

Hana looks at you to see if you’re seeing this. Yeah, Abigail looks absolutely adorable in that oversized jersey, showing off her tanlined shoulder.

Keira shows some of hers. She got a little sunlight but not much and not in any lines. She’s always wearing so much paint. Hana’s got some sharp ones. She’s Loanan, but more pale than Laki and Keira. Laki has them too, but mostly just the lines from the tank top she’s been transitioning to.

>>2557694
Huh, now that you think about it, Laki’s been really loosening up with her clothes, wearing more stuff that shows her body. It’s been such a gradual change from hiding it when you first met that you hadn’t really noticed.

The girls flank you as everyone gets comfy on the big comforter laid out on the floor. Hana, then Keira on your left, and Laki, then Abigail on your right.

“What are we going to do now?” Keira asks. Her speech is a little slow but she might just be tired.

“No truth or dare.” Laki says. “Too loud for my house. Plus it wouldn’t feel right without the others.”

They all agree.

“Shame there’s no bottle to spin.” Hana half jokes.

Laki gives Hana a look you can’t really translate exactly, but can tell it’s not a thrilled expression.


>You’re sure there’s something that could substitute as a bottle
>You hate to ask, but you’re still sore, can someone give you a back rub?
>Whisper to Keira and Hana that you want to try to help Abigail and Laki get along better

You guys remember how when we first met Jeneane she was telling fortunes with tarots?

Herb: “I’m sorry, I just don’t think it’s in the cards for this to happen.”

Keira: “You can do that now?”

You let your hands crawl up slowly towards Laki’s unsuspecting back. Hana, watching, looks surprised, impressed, and very eager. You’re just going to tickle her., it’s not that entertaining.

“How much did mom make you drink?” Laki asks Abigail.

“She didn’t *hic* make me do anything. I’m a grown, sositifated.” She scrunches her face adorably. “Sophistipated. Shoflhisti-” She concentrates hard. “Sophisticated young woman! Not some kid like those three.”

Laki’s a bit older than you and Abigail’s a bit older than her.

“Four of us, unless you’re including me in the old hag club.” Laki says, a little amused and a little offended. “Which you better not be.”

“No, you’re old like me.” Abigail says. “But not a shpinsshter like me.”

“A spinster?” Laki clarifies.

Laki bursts into laughter as you strike. Your timing is a bit bad. Laki sounded genuinely sympathetic for a half second. But the moment is lost. Abigail joins in and tickles her from the front, helping you really push your assault.

Laki is completely helpless, laughing and kicking and curling and expanding. And that’s when you feel hands wriggle around your own weak spots and send you into a laughing fit.

“Betrayal!” You whisper-shout back at Hana and Keira who are joining in, but against you.

You try to fight back but between Laki and them, and all the general struggling and motion, you can’t. You try to take another position to get better leverage, but end up just getting fingers around your wounds.

“Ow ow ow ow.” You say before you can stop yourself. That breaks up the tickle fight quickly enough.

“Still sore, huh?” Laki says. “I shouldn’t have left you out there.”

“I...” You decide not to comment on that at the moment since Laki said it so quietly. “I’m just a little sore, yeah. Can I ask someone for a back rub? I’ll pay you back.”

“I will!” Abigail crawls over Laki.

Laki’s eyes narrow. “No way. I will.”

“I don’t mind.” Keira says. “I’ve been learning a little about bodies lately.” Keira says. “While studying. I wanted to learn more about your healing techniques.” She further clarifies.

“I’ll do it.” Hana says, having been paralyzed by everything going on. Her hand slowly slides down and cups your butt.

“I said first.” Abigail says. “Come on. I want Goldentop to owe me one. And you *hic* jerks don’t appreciate me so I’ll show you how awesome I am to be around.”

“You just want Soft Hand to owe you a massage.” Laki says.

“And you just want to stop me!” Abigail retorts. “Plus yeah, I do. What, you think he’s some untrustworthy *hic* seducer of women, or do you think I’m like my mom? Which is it, huh?”

Keira and Hana share a quick look. Abigail’s letting out a lot by accident at the moment.

It feels incredibly strange to have all this positive female attention on you, but also very, very nice.

>Why not everyone? You’ll return the favor after

Late, but def this. I'm 90% certain she won't do anything untoward. Maybe it'll even give Hana some later fantasy material to work with.

Hell, maybe we find some way to have Keira play it up just for Hana's sake. Really get her imagination firing.

I'm a terrible influence.

“Um, I’d really appreciate if you could do it, Keira.” Keira’s the only one genuinely interested in it without having a secondary motive of some sort.

The other three look disappointed, but nobody really objects. Especially when the cheerful Keira springs up and over. She lands on your back with surprising agility, not hurting at all. “I just like touching so much.”

Hana bites her finger a little at that comment.

As Keira starts working your back, you begin to relax. You need to get your shirt off after a bit to help her out.

“I’m taking payment later anyway.” Laki tells you quietly. You’re not sure what kind of payment she wants but you have a few ideas.

“Keira, I’ve been thinking about aura stuff.”

“Me too.” She adjusts to get another part of your shoulder. Oh man, you must have really rested funny because you are very sore.

“No, I mean, about siphoning aura. It’s possible, right?”

The massage stops, but only for a second. “That’s dangerous. Why would you do something like that?”

“No. Not to hurt anybody. But to get extra energy. Voluntarily.”

“Well. I’m still learning, but if I’m to be your guide I should tell you what I know.” She says, shifting muscle groups again while Laki and Hana are surprisingly amused by the drunken antics of Abigail. It doesn’t hurt that she’s genuinely being hilarious and she keeps kicking while just wearing that jersey. The banter between her and Laki floats back and forth from friendly joshing to harsh but still civilized.

Keira tells you all about what she knows. The first warning is only to take a small amount. It’s surprisingly easy to siphon too much. A lot is lost in the moving of energies so even if you don’t feel like you’re getting that much, it can still be a lot. The second thing is that it can really affect your personality for awhile. You take on the nature of the energies that you siphon, which are generally those most prominent in the person you’re taking on. In other words, you feel a lot more like that person. The third is that is basically doesn’t work unless the person’s guard is down. Because the energies aren’t really something you can pick and choose and you just get what you can take, you might not have the most useful ones for what you’re doing.

“I didn’t know different energies were more useful for different tasks.”

Keira massages a tiny bit too hard. “You know by instinct then, because you’ve been using it that way.” That wasn’t jealousy popping up, was it? “Flip over. I’ll do your front.”

I'd still like to point out her little slip-up at the end there. Mention that we're sorry for touching on a sore point, and say that we appreciate her experience a lot. We'll probably need it going forward. I'd rather not go full-bore on it though - seems more like pity with that route.

“Would you like to try aura massage?”

“Aura massage?”

“I don’t know what it’s called, but it’s a thing. Ask Laki and Hana... Um, actually, that's not really necessary... But it’s really neat!” You say before you explain the general concept. She listens as you go over the basic idea.

“Oh! It’s similar to a ritual I know. Yes! Maybe I can help guide your technique on that as well.”

“I bet! I have no idea what I’m doing and you know a lot. I’m really depending on you.”

She stops again and gives you a funny look. “Herb, I have a well respected title here. I know when people are trying to tell me what I want to hear. They do it all the time.”

Gah! You’re not good at this. “Oh, I really meant it, but sorry.”

“Don’t be. I appreciate it coming from you. You're always honest.” She says, smiling. “Now, let’s go over your aura massage.”

You try to guide her through it as she sits on top of you. She listens intently, asking strange questions a lot and using terms you’re not very familiar with, but easily understand after she explains it.

“Let me warm up first.” She says. “I still have trouble getting into that mode. You always seem in it, though.” Keira stretches and cracks her knuckles, then leans back a bit. It’s a little painful in these tight pants as she sits on your lap but you adjust.

“Tell me about Shedinja.” you say, trying to bring something up to talk about. Hana’s trying to calm down a situation where Laki has put Abigail in some sort of leg lock. Luckily it looks more like goofing around and horsea-play than anything serious. At least, for now.

“I...would like to avoid that topic right now.” Keira says, scrunching her closed eyes. “I need to concentrate.”

“Oh, okay.” You make a mental note to bring it up later.

Keira places a hand on your temple and another on your chest.

“Umm, this isn’t really a massage any more.” You say.

“I know, but you don’t need to. Not in theory, anyway. You were just doing that as a way to connect to their aura and help them relax. These are easier areas to work with.” She sounds a little frustrated, but mostly disappointed in herself. “I’m sorry, Herb. I can’t seem to get it. I feel so close. How did you do it before?”

It's not t even close to the same. Plus, it's Hana. The more niche it is the hotter she'll get over it.
Also opportunity to let her experience having a full set of meat limbs again, at least for a while

>>2558464
A full set plus one.

>>2558464
Maybe ya should read a story that already has body swapping between a man and a woman ( in a serious way) instead of trying to have it be something here.

>>2558501
Gobble's done body swaps for funzies before. It's not like it's totally out of the realm of possibility. Don't be so grumpy.

“It’s probably my fault. I’m not relaxed enough.” You tell her. “I’ll close my eyes and try to stop being so tense.”

“Thanks.” She says, closing her own eyes

After a short time of doing nothing, you start talking a little. “That tickles. Your finger right there.”

She taps your forehead with it playfully and giggles. The sound from the taps resonates in your head. “Maybe you’ll be more relaxed if I just tickle you.”

“I’ll get you back.” You threaten, grinning.

“Oh!” She gasps. “I just felt something. What other emotions can we use?”

“I always did a physical massage and umm, well...”

“Herb, relax or I’ll lose it again. Please, just tell me.”

“Well, I had the most practice with lustful emotions.” You say. “I did that way more than anything.”

She giggles. “That’s why they warn us about boys in our schooling so much.” She says before concentrating. Her hands start massaging your body, roaming wherever she feels, as she tries to coax out your emotions and get a way in. You swear you can almost physically feel it.

But you don’t really concentrate on it. Your mind is wandering. Wandering to the thoughts of a nice sunshiny day at the beach with your friends, family, and pokemon. Daydreaming about relaxing on the beaches, cooking up a barbeque for everyone, and just taking it easy until nightfall where you and Hana and Laki sneak away somewhere. Oh. Things are getting a bit racy in this little daydream of yours.

In the back of your head something feels a bit off. It doesn’t really feel like Laki or Hana you’re playfully getting a little frisky with in your dream.

“Herb.” You feel a whisper in your ear. You’ve come to enjoy those.

“Herb.” It whispers again, more urgently. You open your eyes. Keira’s right there, eyes wide. “Herb, your pride.”

What? Your...oh gosh. It’s raging, with Keira sitting right on it. Her face is a mix of a lot of different emotions, even through the facepaint. But deep down in there you unmistakingly see a little lust in her eyes too, among the others. That wouldn’t jump out at you so hard if you weren’t feeling so frisky right now.

“Shh.” She says. “I know this can be embarrassing. You probably don’t want Abigail to see your barbarianism. It’s okay. I won’t judge. But what do we do now?”

That’s a huge relief. Keira's such a good friend. And a pretty one, too! And she smells nice.

Keira sitting on you is the only reason everyone can’t see it. You strained right the fabric of these old worn out sweats. You’re almost a little proud and how solid you are, but mostly concerned about how Laki might react.

But wow. You really, really want to make love right now. To emotionally and physically express yourself towards your girls

Blame it on the aura stuff later if we need to

>>2558525
I mean part of the problem I have with it, is that Herb is trying to be man, so why the heck would he would he put himself in a woman's body.

>>2558586
Planning out excuses isn’t very Herb-like.

>>2558570

This is a terrible decision, but I'm voting for it anyway. Life isn't fun a a bad decision or 10 made along the way.

>>2558570
>Laki said she’d be okay with Keira. Time to bring it up right here and now

Dude it wasn't intentional last time. And I dono, to see just how different and manly he is? It's silly shit.

>>2558570
>>Put the moves on Laki and Hana, right here in front of everyone

Don’t you guys remember that Herb was just reminded that Keira made vows of celibacy? How she thanked us before for not putting moves on her when she was lust-addled?

This feels like especially poor timing of a bad plan.

>>2558570
I don’t want to rush these things
>Ignore that feeling. Massage Keira back like you said you would

>>2558619
She thanked us for not putting it in. She mentioned that she can't have intercourse without her prospects changing. At no point was it said that all sex acts are verboten. If it were that picky then she disqualified herself the moment she let Herb's dick touch her snatch ages ago.

>>2558570
I kinda want to vote for Herb trying to subtly grind against her right there and then, but that's pretty out of character.
Would make a good what-if bin, though.

>>2558619
Keira is for hugs, not fugs.

>>2558687

>>2558772
I think they are up to the 6th thread now

>>2558781
I've seen that, but I've been afraid to actually look. Is it... faithful, or a disaster?

>>2558781
Absolute madmen. Still, as long as bracelet-chan remains best girl, all is well.

>>2558788
I read some of it, it didn't grab me. I think he gave Mari huge tits or something and I bounced off.

>>2558792
Not remembering her name is Tina-chan shame on you.

>>2558788
If it remains faithful then it wouldn't it be a disaster tho?

>>2558804
Dude I haven't even thought about that quest in years, you expect me to remember names?

>>2558815
I'm in the same boat and I still remember the names.

>>2558788
He took completely the wrong lesson from Archelon's failure, and decided that the reason people were bitter about the original is that it wasn't edgy enough.

Cue Game of Thrones levels of on-screen rape and murder under the guise of being 'dude so metal omg'

>>2558811
It could be a *bigger* disaster. And I don't remember the beginning as all that bad. I forget when I burned out, though. Even reading from the archives and skipping to story posts, the salt got to be overwhelming.

>>2558827
Yeah, at least Gobble has the decency to put it in a bin when Herb gets molested.

>>2558851
herb gets molested?!

>>2558827
I don't think PGQ is a failure, I thought is was pretty good overall. Above average characterization and character development. I think what people wanted out of it was at odds with what the quest was, it was a slice of life quest at it's heart and people wanted to be the best at the combat and didn't really lean into the animeness. I think Arch biggest failures were just creating most of the drama in his own quest.

>>2558834
I was there the whole time and that salt was really funny.

Gobble is kill.

>>2558858
Arch was a fucking terrible QM, good writer though

>>2558858
There were failures of Princess guard quest.

1. How he handled the waifu war.

2. French guy and his legendary sword of derp winning the tournament.

3. Rein being stupidly underpowered

4. The final boss fight was won by blinding a guy with dirt. A guy who used earth sense to see, was blinded, by dirt being thrown in his face.

That somehow blinded his tremor senses...

>>2558855
There was that one time when Keira got herself off grinding on Herb’s exposed barbarism while he was asleep.

She felt real bad and apologized though.

>>2558858
I'll admit the writing was pretty good, but Archelon is a shitty QM and he probably should have just made it into a VN from the outset because he clearly didn't really want players to have any agency.

PGQ was a shitshow but it had nothing to do with the writing or tone, which was part of my point about taking the wrong message from PGQ's failure.

>>2558887
Probably the worst QM, dude was a mong of the highest order

>>2558890
>Probably the worst QM
That's pretty firmly FemCOCK.

>>2558874
I wouldn't call him terrible, but there were some really bad break downs in communication and Arch had this really bad habit of getting real adversarial when he was mad.
>>2558876
The waifu war was the player's bases fault always was gonna be, Arch was straight up with saying the chance of getting more than one girl was extremely unlikely and he wasn't gonna do harems.

He also telegraphed that magic sword thing pretty hard, and I'm surprised that the fan base was surprised by it. When we had basically confirmed it ourselfs from playing from Monique's POV.

Rein was just a regular swordsman he was never going to be strong as people centuries old and Rein was never as weak as people made him out to be, he did his job well and never failed at protecting the princesses.

That last one, I don't remember the specifics of the final battle, but I'm pretty sure it was like a multi combo kinda thing going on from like half of the supporting cast that was there at the time.

>>2558898
He told us early on we'd never ever see one of those swords in game.

The tournament's rules stipulated no magic shenanigans.

Rein being a regular swordsmen is the flaw in and of itself. What is the point of a guard who's so weak by the settings powerscale?

Just about any middling mage could have been hired instead and would have been more effective than Rein.

The last one was retarded.

>>2558897
Never heard of him

>>2558898
Dude, he basically removed all player agency because he didn't want them to ruin is special setting. He also cockgobbled the only thing the MC was ever good at by giving the rival a super speshul donut steal sword, that let him beat the MC criting in a duel. That's one example

Alright, I think I need to crash. Got to run out to the airport again tomorrow, and I'm liable to work tomorrow morning as well. Try not to let things blow up too much, alright everyone? We want small, controlled detonations at most.

Thanks for the run tonight Gobble!

“It’s okay.” You assure Keira as you push yourself up. The action accidentally causes Keira to rub against you a little.

“What are you going to do?” She asks, whispering just in case you’re still concerned about hiding yourself.

“My girlfriends.” You say plainly. You feel a rush of embarrassment because Hana and Laki both clearly heard that Abigail’s still playing around but notices them both turn to you.

Laki’s turning back from laughing at “Herb. What are you talking about. Holy...do you have a-” she’s cut off as you embrace her in a kiss. A deep, long, heavy petting kiss. You make sure to hit all the secret little places she responds to the most. It doesn’t take long. “Wow.” She gasps.

You grab Hana and do the same. She gets revved up much, much quicker. “In front of Keira and Abigail?” She asks when you turn your attentions back to Laki. You let your actions speak for you.

“Soft Hands. Holy crap. What’s gotten into you?” Laki gasps. She doesn’t seem to think it’s a bad thing.

“Oh boy. Here it comes!” Abigail says, half sarcastic. She makes herself comfortable. “I knew this was coming. I must be psychic.”

“That’s...” Hana gasps as your attentions turn back to her. “A common misconception. They can’t see the f-hnnng,” you nibble her neck. “future! That's what Clair told me!”

“Herb...” Keira says as you start to really get heavy with both girls. “Do you have the energy for this?”

“Always.” You say, surprised at your own confidence. But the steel in your resolve is as hard as the steel in your pants.

“J-jeez, Soft Hands.” Laki says, overwhelmed by your assault. “What kind of massage d-” she stops mid sentence. “Oh. Keira gave you a taste of your own medicine.” She says.

“It was the emotion he had the most practice in for it.” Keira nods, a little, but not a lot embarrassed.

Laki laughs, then pushes you onto your back. “And you came right to me and Hana.” Laki says. “Good Soft Hands. We have a saying here that it doesn’t matter where you get it as long as you park it where you should.” She tries to look stern but breaks as you get back up from under her and continue your assault. “Soft Hands! Wow. I’m not going anywhere. And people are watching.”

“Let them.” You say, concentrating on the task at hand and pulled Hana back in. She freezes up sometimes.

“Keira. You should really consider a fertility priestess career.” Laki laughs. “I’ve never seen him so...lustful.”

(continued)

Wow Keira sure is embarassed and upset. Sure glad we didn't ask her about it because it'd be sooo inappropriate.

>>2558925
Well now, let’s wait for the other half before taking away any lessons.

This suspense is killing me!

Keira stops laughing though. She puts a finger on her chin. “I....hmm.”

You stop your assault now too and look up at her. You glance right in her eyes. It's a look of invitation if she ever does go down that road. A look of friendly safety, admiration, swimming heavily in lust. You you glance to Laki and Hana and pay attention to both of them to see if they object, because you didn't hide it from them. They don't raise any objections or look offended.

You can't keep yourself from the girls much longer. You tackle Hana. “Awe-hawesome.” Hana eagerly proclaims as things get a little friskier by the second.

Keira blinks a few times, then nods. It’s not a solid question or a solid confirmation. It could just be that she's acknowledging that she understands, not that she accepts. But you haven’t heard or seen a no from anybody concerned. You’re too preoccupied to give that concern more attention. You’ve got your hands full.

Abigail adjusts the pillow she's sitting on. "You know. You'd think this would bug me but it *hic* kinda helps me with that little homesickness I have."

"They do this in front of you now?" Keira asks.

"Guessh so." Abigail says. "I'm too drunk to keep Hana quiet so that'sh on you tonight." She says before curling up.

Keira looks so confused. But also curious.

It’s a long, sweaty, amazing night. You feel like a man possessed, but you know it’s just you. Just your inner self. It’s just so strange to see yourself as this big lady’s man. But you are. You, the guy who can’t even say dirty words most of the time seem to have this crazy beast inside that you unleash in bed. You turned your two girlfriends into satisfied, quivering messes. And you did it in front of an audience, without shame.

It felt amazing. You lie there, tired and heavy, cuddled and satisfied. You still worry about the impending time you can’t keep up or fail to satisfy, but the way Hana just came out and said not every time will be great before when things didn’t go so well really helps keep you at ease. You think maybe it’s because you feel so safe with them that you’re able to avoid your nerves acting up.

Keira’s easy going attitude made it sort of fun to give her a show, too. The whole thing just went way better than you expected, and you think it might have a lot to do with how nonchalant you were.

There’s a knock at the door. Everyone except Abigail shoots up.

“Hello?” Laki says.

The knock comes again, urgent but soft. And from low to the ground. You scramble for some pants and answer.

It’s Gobble. And there’s all your other pokemon.

“Cubone’s missing!” Keira translates.

[That's it for tonight. We'll pick up tomorrow. I know some anons aren't happy with the way that last vote went, but Keira is very much mind blown at the moment and curious and flustered and not threatened or feeling pressured.]

>>2559225
Everybody involved has good chemistry with each other, in my view, and Keira definitely has a thing for Herb. I see no reason not to make everyone happy in the obvious way. Sure, we might not take it all the way physically for a while for religious reasons, but that's no problem.

>>2559234
I think things went better than if we pressured her, I felt like her attitude was such that she wasn't ready for a thing yet.

>>2559231

What was the list of bins that you were working on again Gobble?

Also, I should try to make a list of plot threads to pursue sometime.

Ha, Herb boned down while wearing girl clothes.

I would have voted Don't if I were here, and "Keira is very much mind blown at the moment and curious and flustered and not threatened or feeling pressured." sums it up the reasoning really well.

Patience is a virtue.

Was abi awake during this too or did she drunkenly nod off?

>>2559373
This plus the exhibitism made Hana a happy girl, I bet!

>>2559662
I look forward to when they’re all sleeping together spent and tired after a long day. Being honest, I wouldn’t mind seeing Hana and Laki being more intimate with each other as well like they are with Herb. Also I feel like a dunce, what’s Val doing at the moment?

Val’s got contest stuff.

We should actually go watch some of that sometime, especially if she goes to the finals.

Laki’s been opening up to Hana at her own pace.

>>2560636
It's so weird how much James mom looks like Jesse, and with her mom also having purple hair it makes me wonder if they're like cousins or even estranged sisters

>>2560662
Probably why James likes following Jessie, I always felt Jessie was the one were the pants in their relationship. James is just so use to obeying his mother he just found a nicer version of her to pal around with.

I always thought it was super funny how stinking rich James is, he has no reason to want to make money through criminal activity, so he probably just does it to spend time with his friends and just to give himself goals.

General rules:

There is a 10 minute voting period after each post. Non-contradictory votes will be combined as best as possible.
Write-ins for all votes are always welcome and encouraged. They may not all make it into the post or be altered to fit in, but I'll do my best to at least try to address the spirit of the write-in.

Very important or contentious votes may be redone in a stricter voting system as circumstances warrant.

Combat mechanics involve three rolls of 1d100, taking the best, and using the base accuracy and crit ranges of the the PTU system, roughly, but the 'turn order' will be more like the anime, where sometimes you can do a few moves in a row or be hit by a combo of moves yourself, all depending on circumstances. Stronger moves tend to take more time and have more cooldown than weaker moves and also may leave you open to an interrupt, so beware of that timing. Speed is more important for closing ground, intercepting, and other things and doesn't necessarily mean going first.

Pokemon and trainers are unique, and may have certain specializations, skills, or other things that the video-game mechanics might not allow. Some examples: That kung fu Bellsprout in the anime, that crystal Onix, or a Roggenrolla that can fly. Herb's perception skills, pokemon knowledge, context clues in general, and other things will hopefully come into play to avoid completely unfair, unforeseeable bullshit, but expect more bullshit from more advanced trainers.

Call me out on a mistake and receive a suggestive picture, mostly likely a butt.

Pokemon:
Gobble (Munchlax)
Mace (Roggenrola)
Belladonna (Roserade)
Dice (Croconaw)
Sorbet (Vulpix)

Location: Laki's parent's place, Laki's bedroom.

Herb is legitimately her perfect husbando.

He will be Laki's once he impregnates her.

A light thunderstorm still attempts to rage outside but only manages small outbursts for now. You really lost track of things and have no idea when that sprung up. You have to struggle to get your mind to focus. You just had a pretty intimate and physically draining night.

“What do you mean, missing?” You ask Keira and Gobble.

“She snuck out when we were sleeping. Mace was watching the window.” You turn to Mace and wonder what he saw for a moment, but don’t let that slow anything down. “Dice found her on her way out, but she tricked him.”

“Tricked him? How?” You say, looking down at a disappointed, sad looking Dice with a stain on his nose.

“He found her when she was leaving and asked her to stay. She made it seem like she was just investigating something very smelly and when he sniffed it, stuffed his nose in.” Keira gasps. “Oh, poor Dice.”

Laki approaches, putting on some clothes and sniffing. “Mom’s perfume?”

“She gonna be mad?” Abigail mumbles. Her eyes are closed and her face is mushed into her pillow, but apparently she’s fairly awake.

“It’s cheaper than water.” Laki struggles to put on some old shorts that just can’t fit onto her wide hips.

“Why did she run away?” Hana asks.

Gobble shrugs.

“He doesn’t know. But he doesn’t think anyone offended her or anything. She seemed to be really warming up to everyone. This came as a big surprise.”

You’ll say!

>Come on, let’s go find her
>You’ll stay here and try to console/wash Dice’s nose, others can go if they want

You glance out at the thunderstorm. You’re pretty sure that wouldn’t really affect Cubone that much, given her ability and her being accustomed to the life of a wild pokemon, but it still bothers you that she’s out there all alone. What’s she doing?

“Abigail, can I ask you to look after Dice while I’m out? I’m going to go find Cubone.”

Abigail very lazily rolls her body towards Dice, trying her best not to actually get up. “Sure. Come here, Dice.”

“We.” Laki corrects, still trying to negotiate an angle that the shorts can fit.

“We-er.” Hana adds in awkwardly. Her eyes clearly avoiding looking out the window. “I can’t let you get hurt again.” Her chest rises and falls heavily, but she stands firmly. "Wait, pretend I said 'we-three.' That would have been cooler."

“A trail by storm.” Keira mumbles.

“Huh?”

“Nothing.” Keira shakes her head. “I’ll come too.”

That’s a lot of volunteers. “Hana, are you sure?”

She puts on the same awkward smile and eyebrow arching she gets when she pretends she’s not thinking something lewd and waves off the concern. “What, me? Yeah. These models are supposed to be safe. It’s all in my head, right? Plus I still have Mandibuzz and I don’t know what the plan is there. I’ll stay a few feet away from everyone just in case.” Her face makes it look like a joke but the way she swallowed while saying it didn’t.

You also realize how unprepared Laki and Hana are. You could really cover a lot of ground by the time Laki and Hana gather thier pokemon and gets dressed.


>Keira and you will go ahead. You two can catch up
>Alright. Everyone that volunteered can come. We’re out in five
>Take Mandibuzz and leave Hana behind. Ask her to look after Abigail and be here in case Cubone returns
>You’ll go with just your pokemon. Everyone stay
>Something else

>>2560929
>“A trail by storm.” Keira mumbles.
Should that be "Trial"?

Also, my birthday is in two days! Since you're probably not running on Tuesday, that makes this my birthday run!

>>2560929

>Something else
If we don't meet up in an hour, and we can't contact each other by pokedex because of the storm, let's have Laki's Parent's house be a rally point and meet back up here in 3 hours.

“Keira, you can go now, right?”

She nods.

“Great, we’ll go ahead.” You announce. You’re still riding that momentum of assertiveness from the nighttime activities. “Laki, Hana, come once you’re ready. If we don't meet up in an hour, and since we can't contact each other by pokedex because of the storm, let's have the house be a rally point and meet back up here in 3 hours.”

“Yes sir.” Laki says, intending it to be sarcastic but really sounding more impressed than anything.

You take Keira by the hand and both of you, rush out, all of your pokemon, minus Dice, in tow.

You check out in the backyard and Gobble points out the last spot anyone saw Cubone. There’s the spot on the fence where she hopped over, and below it you see a small piece of torn cloth that smells like cheap perfume even through the wind and water. Hey! That’s torn from the scared you made for Onix.

The huge pokemon is curled up under the little shelter they have for it, deep in sleep.

On the other end of the yard you see Gardevoir standing still, looking up at the sky. Rainwater deflects harmlessly against and invisible bubble she’s extending around herself. There’s a little room in the shelter but she seems not to be concerned. You can’t be sure, but you assume by her demeanor that she’s not entirely lucid at the moment.

The rainwater puts your arm hairs on end.

“How are we going to find Cubone?” Keira asks.


>Go to the place you first met Cubone
>Go in a straight line in the direction she left in
>You’ll go one way, Keira can go the other
>Spend time trying to get Gardevoir to help. Her psychic powers can help

You come to a stop and think for a moment, letting go of Keira’s hand. “Gobble, can you use Odor Sleuth?”

“Good idea!” Keira exclaims.

Gobble looks around at all the other pokemon and yourself. He doesn’t seem sure, but he’ll try.

He sniffs, hard. While he does, you lean against the fence. Woo. You’re close to empty for energy. You’ve recovered from your injuries very quickly, but you’ve spent almost every ounce you can safely spend. You don’t really feel that drained until you lean against something or slow down, though.

“That way!” Keira translates. You open your eyes and see Gobble pointing. “Probably.”

“Good job, Gobble.” You rustle his head. “I don’t know what I’d do without you.”

Gobble beams. He’s such a reliable friend.

But there’s no time for that right now. You hope the fence. Once you get over you pause to turn back and offer Keira help, but she effortlessly climbs her way to the top and balances on it like a gymnast. Your pokemon all get over it quicker than you did, although Gobble needed a quick step up from Mace.

You rush out in that direction. The wind and the rain pick up a little, making any potential conversation difficult. That’s okay. You’re busy trying to think. What could Cubone be doing that’s so important?

You end up running by that one house on the edge of town near Laki’s hidden little area. You remember seeing a fierce looking Granbull there when you walked by. Gobble’s path would take you right through the yard.

And you and Keira can see it was in a fight recently. Granbull growls and backs away when you go by.

“Did a Cubone come by here recently?” You say.

It growls and backs up.

“I don’t think she heard you.” Keira’s voice barely comes to you.

You cup your hands and yell the question again. “Did a Cubone come by here recently!”

Your pokemon join in, making lots of noise. But somehow, through it all, Granbull seems to hear it.

“Criminal.” Keira translates. “Tresspacer. Came in,” She scrunches her nose to think. “Yard? Um, they fought. And...Cubone used dirty tricks and ran off. And she’s a good girl.”

“Does she know which way Cubone went?”

Granbull makes more noise. “We’ll stay back.” Keira promises it, putting a hand on your chest and pushing you back so that only she’s close to the fence. “Cubone said she was after bones. That’s why Granbull attacked when she’s usually friendly to visitors. Mother bones. Very scary thing to say.”

“Oh. I think Cubone and Granbull had a misunderstanding.” You say, mostly to yourself.

Keira asks about the direction. It’s the same general area Gobble’s nose seems to be leading you.

Granbull edges towards the house, under an awning where it’s a little more dry. The thunder off the the distance makes it shoot up for a second.
