The time is 3:28 PM on a Friday. You are in your DIM and FETID room. It smells vaguely of DISCARDED ITALIAN CUISINE. Following a long and rather drawn-out battle with an embarrassing CHUUNIBYOU, you spent some time dedicated to yourself and focusing on self improvement! This focus on self improvement includes doing two to three PUSH-UPS a day and occasionally WALKING around your room in a vague, almost circular fashion. You consistently reward this strenuous exercise with plenty of takeout. You can already feel your muscles building up! You’ll be just like SAMURAI SUMMERS in no time.

Today, however, is different from prior days - today, you’ve been invited. After utterly embarrassing last week’s CONSTRUCTOR, she took the time to actually call your number and invite you over to her apartment to HANG OUT and maybe participate in a QUEST. It seems that after thoroughly embarrassing her, criticizing her hobby, and ruining her dress, you’ve somehow tricked her into considering you an ACQUAINTANCE of sorts. You’re most likely the only person who’s actually spent time with her in a fashion that wasn’t antagonistic, so you can imagine why.

Maybe you’d better prepare before you actually go to someone else’s apartment.

You decide to take a SHOWER! It’s been quite a while since you’ve actually taken one, and it would do well for you to wash the smell of NEAR CHRISTMAS CAKE NEET off yourself so as to not totally assault Catastrovania’s senses. You step into the shower - the steam masking your poorly drawn body yet again.

Stepping out of the shower and feeling substantially less STICKY, you may now actually be clean enough to step out into the public without drawing undue looks. It doesn’t seem to have washed that gross, FUJO look off your face, unfortunately, but you make do with what you’re given.

You decide to clean your GROSS, CHINESE-FOOD smelling mouth out-..! You dig out an OCCASIONALLY USED toothbrush from deep within your sink cabinet and begin the long and arduous process of brushing your teeth, flossing, and rinsing your mouth out. The feeling of a clean, minty mouth is one rare to you, but welcome. You similarly decide to bring your PLUNGER along when you head out to Catastrovania’s apartment - since it’s a bit of a hefty carry for yourself, you’ll simply have Twink Daddy carry it over to the place in his jacket. It’ll likely draw far fewer looks than you swinging it around as you head over.

Similarly, instead of avoiding your reflection in the mirror out of shame as per usual, you decide to stare into it and contemplate just how much your life has changed in the past few weeks. You now have a massive YAOI INCARNATE son. You’ve spoken to more people in the last month or so than you have in the last few years. You’ve actually started stepping out of the apartment a little more than usual. Still extremely rarely, but a little more. You have also actually changed CLOTHES numerous times! Before, you used to just not wear pants for sometimes months on end. You really have come far.

>Time to go

You decide it’s about time to HEAD OUT. Although you far prefer the comfiness and darkness of your apartment room, social interactions are good for you- right? Handing the plunger off to Twink Daddy, you offer a last reluctant look at your enclosed, dirtied apartment room before figuring that it’s time to leave.

…

Following a long and arduous 20 minute walk in the light of the glaring real world - you are incapable of biking - you arrive at Catastrovania’s apartment block with Twink Daddy. Compared to yours, the building is relatively larger - that is, to say, you managed to tire yourself out while climbing the stairs to reach her apartment address.

The apartment door is nondescript and resembles just about every door nearby. You were expecting something themed more darkly and oriented around edginess as expected of the chuuni, but you hesitantly knock anyways. From behind the door, you hear shuffling and mutters before a youthful female voice responds: “Who is it?”

>What do you do?

>It's BL+Lover, I'm here for Catastrovania Strifaust Morituros IX.

“I-I’m Bl+Lover..? I’m here for - uhm..” What was her full name? “Catastrovania St-Strifaust Morituros IX.” You make sure to pronounce IX as “icks,” just so she knows what you’re talking about. In response to your query, you hear the girl on the opposite end shuffle about, fumble with the locked door for a moment, and then swing it open.

The girl that steps out looks familiar, but not in a totally recognizable way. She’s still dressed in her school uniform and she is regarding you with a look of absolute DISGUST. It’s the kind of look typically reserved for rotten shrimp forgotten in the back of a fridge two months after buying it.

“Whatever it is, Catastrovania doesn’t live here.” She scowls. “Go away and leave her alone.”

“W-well- I was invited here by her, actually, so..” You respond awkwardly, cringing at yet another middle schooler yelling at reprimanding you. “H-how do you know her, anyways? What’s your name?”
The little girl frowns in response. “Starphase Abruption Retrograde IX.” Just like Catastrovania, she pronounces IX as “icks.” “And I know you weren’t invited here by Catastrovania because my big sister doesn’t have friends. Go away and bully someone else.”
As she attempts to slam the door shut, Twink Daddy manages to grab hold of the door. “W-wait-..!” You try to stop Starphase. “I-I know her- I swear. She invited me! We’re both Constructors, and- and-..” You can’t think of many other similarities between you and Catastrovania without insulting one of you.
She pauses for a brief moment, her face maintaining it mask of solemnity. “Fine then.” She responds. “Tell me something about Catastrovania that only someone who actually knows her would know.”

>Her eyepatch/blindfold is super cool

“U-uh-.. She likes.. She runs quests! She likes m-making quests, and she loves.. uh.. trains.. and, and her eyepatch blindfold thing is really cool.” You settle on that, totally and 100% confident in your deduction of Catastrovania’s character. Starphase stares blankly at you.
After deliberating for a long and arduous moment, she releases her iron grip on the door into the apartment and allows it to creak open. She continues walking in. “You’d better not be lying about her inviting you over, or I’m gonna break that coat rack up your ass. Be nice to Catastrovania.” She mutters.

You enter the apartment - much to your surprise, it seems relatively normal. Sparse and minimal decoration is a far cry from the edgy, dark decorating you might’ve expected from the chuunibyou. Far more spacious than yours, of course, and it actually has a kitchen area. Starphase’s arms are crossed.

“She’s in her room, across the hall. You’ll know which door is hers. Don’t make her cry.” Starphase’s words are curt and quiet.

>What do you do?

>>3353793

Following thanking the little sister and assuring her that you probably won’t, you enter the hall. It’s rather plain, save for the massive MAKISE KURISU statue in the far corner and a KYUBEY plush and a SUCCULENT on the hall table. There’s four doors, but just as Starphase said, you can presume which one is Catastrovania’s - even if she didn’t, you can almost smell the CHUUNIBYOU from where you stand. You approach Catastrovania’s door with reluctance before quietly knocking. You hear fumbling on the other side of the door.

“.. Password?” The voice asks. It’s the familiar, somewhat nasal voice you heard in the convenience store last week.

>What do you do?

>>3353866

You have NO IDEA what the password is. “U-um- you never gave a password.” You first attempt reason.
“Password or remain BANISHED from my DARK ABODE.” The high-pitched voice on the other end of the door responds thunderously.
You decide to list off every possible password that you can think of. “U-um.. Open the d-door for bully time, thanks for running QM, magical space gambling-..” You continue on for several minutes, listing off as much rambling nonsense that pops into your head.

After that long, drawn out, near breathless list, the person on the other side of the door shuffles about for a bit before CATASTROVANIA opens the door. “Correct! That was the correct password.” She looks to be a bit of a mess. She’s in boxer shorts and the shirt loosely draped from her slight frame has some sort of.. nose.. entity on it.

As you step deeper into her DEN OF DEBAUCHERY, she strikes a fanciful pose. “Welcome.. to my DARK ABODE.” She sneers, placing her hand in front of her face in a pose you’re pretty sure she stole from Jojo. The room is a bit of a mess. A SHOGI BOARD and DEATH NOTE lie on the short table in front of you. The darkened room is lit up in various colorful posters of a variety of anime. A massive sword from.. BERSERK, you think, lies on her bookshelf.

“S-so..? What do you think?” She asks, continuing to hold the pose.

“I-it’s, uhm.. It’s pretty neat..? I was ex-expecting much worse..” You admit, glancing around the room. It’s similar to your room, save for the fact that discarded BEER CANS litter your room far more than here. “It’s k-kind of like, the Dark Souls of rooms..? I guess. H-hey, can I swing your sword around?”
“Yes! You recognize the BEAUTY of my CACOPHONY.” She twirls around, gesturing to the room around her. “It took me a great deal of time and a lot of my parent’s money to put together my BARMECIDIC BRIDEWELL. A-and, no. You can’t touch the Dragon Slayer. He’s only for me.”

“Now..” She folds her arms smugly. “I’m sure you’re wondering why I called you here after you just barely managed to swindle victory from my grasp last week, no?” Before you get a chance to respond, she continues. “I have a deal for you! Now, I’m sure that the next Constructor - the sixth - is going to be coming for you very soon. And I’ve heard from a few PASSING RUMORS that you aren’t too knowledgeable about Constructs as a whole. I know PLENTY about Constructs. And although I’ve never managed to catch sight of them, I HAVE heard a few rumors about number six..! And I’m fully willing to explain them.. so long as you PLAY MY QUEST!” She points at you thunderously.

“So? You like my deal?” She asks smugly.

>What do you do?

>>3354118

>>3354118

But yes, I will play your quest. But only if TD gets to make a character as well.

(Now that I think about it, the descending order is probably deliberate on mr. Coins part who just happen to know everyone's ranks when it's hidden probably works with the uca.)
How big is the city were in? I just want to know because of the amount of middle schoolers we keep running into. By the way op you sure like middle schoolers.

“W-well, sure, s-sounds like fun, but.. How do you know the 6th is going to come after me n-next? And, wouldn’t it be a massive coincidence if all the constructors came a-after me in descending order..?” You ask hesitantly as Catastrovania approaches her PC. While you come near her, you catch a glimpse of her bookshelf. A wide selection of Seinen manga and novels fill the shelves, alongside “How To Make Friends: The Ultimate Guide On How To Socialize And How To Make Friends And Influence People (How To Overcome Fear With A Smile Book 2” by Andrew Manae. “How do C-Constructors keep hearing about me in the first place?”

“Well, it’s simple, OBVIOUSLY. I’ve done some research. Babyrapier attacked you first, then the Chinese delivery girl, then Dick, and then Starphase’s little friend. It’s not a coincidence. Someone’s leaking your details to the top 10 in order. I got your address from a guy with glasses - my SECRET NETWORK of SPIES!” She proudly exclaims. “Probably some big conspiracy to test you or whatever. Now, since I have access to my PC right now, I can make far BETTER and way COOLER pictures for your quest! Sure, it’s not, like.. Ceg level yet, but it’ll get there!” After offering that world-shattering idea to you, she continues on with her quest, opening up a Google Doc.

“Hey-wait, could you expand on-” You begin-
“It’s time for my quest!”

It’s another dark night in Icarus City. A den of debauchery and disgust - of crime. It reeks- of crime. Even in this, the current year of 2054, crime is still a problem. Robots and such are also criminal factors in this cool, dark, neo-noir cyberpunk city. The moon is a half-crescent - not from the sun’s shadow or anything, but because a big chunk of it was bombed during the Panzer Wars in 2026, and now it’s a permanent crescent.

“Brutal.. B-brutal Blaster Boy.” You quickly respond. Luckily, she can’t seem to read through your stupid, dirty minded smile that it really is Bubble Butt Boy.

Fine then. Brutal Blaster Boy - BBB - is approaching his local Triumvirate Order office to submit his application to enter a higher ring of status when he sees a robot being mugged by an eyepatched human! The human has a special weapon - a power glock. It’s like a glock, but it’s more powerful. You now face a moral quandary! Do you aid the robot as it appeals to your morals, or do you aid the human, because you’re human too? Even then, you do have a robot arm. Are you even considered human anymore?

“U-uhm.. It was great! Way better than what I expected. I-it could’ve used more, uh- cute.. cute boys, but it’s 10/10 otherwise. Wh-where did you come across the idea of quests?” You respond proudly.
Catastrovania seems to visibly rise under your praise. “Pssh. It’s just a test quest, anyways, so it’s gonna be even BETTER when I actually run it on the board.” Catastrovania smiles proudly. “After you did my LAST test quest, I figured I’d make this one way more free and stuff. And I actually found out about quests all by myself! It’s on this board on this forum? You should look it up when you get home and read my quest!”

The chuuni seems visibly happier than before that you actually enjoyed the quest this time around with minimal criticism. It seems that she drops a bit of the chuuni persona when she’s genuinely praised. “Sure, it’s not, like, a fan quest, and OCverses usually do worse, but I’m sure people will read it even if it’s not based on DBZ or BNHA or whatever. The art will definitely draw people in.. even it’s not like, NSOAM quality!” You almost understand what she’s saying, but not quite.

>You promised to be my friend
>"You mentioned about number six? Also whats this Construct business about."

“Y-you promised to be my friend..?” You respond hesitantly. “.. And to read my slashfic?”
“We shall be ACQUAINTANCES. Because you threw icecream at my dress. And I’m not reading any gross slashfics.” Cat responds shortly. “But I no longer consider you an abject enemy, because I am generous.”

“Wait- no! I remember. It was the, uhh, Construct and #6 stuff!” She proudly exclaims, standing atop her computer chair and placing her hands at her sides. “Okay, so.. I heard a rumor while EAVESDROPPING about you knowing nothing about Constructs..! How sad, for a number one to know absolutely nothing about what they’re the best at.” She sneers, after having been beaten by a number one who knows nothing about what they’re best at.

“But, since I’m a kind beneficiary of yours, and I want to give you a fighting chance in the future - I’ll tell you about what you have to look forward to in the future.” Catastrovania remains standing precariously on her chair. “There are THREE types of Constructs, and I’m sure you’ve already encountered one of each: ASSAULT, SUPPORT, and OBJECT.”

“Assault Constructs are rather straightforward. They fight for you. Sometimes they transform. They can take on countless shapes, sizes, intelligences - but in the end, they follow your commands to fight. Babyrapier’s- uh.. What’s it called again? Zeta.. Deltarender? That’s an assault Construct.” She gestures vaguely toward TD. “Twink Daddy, too. They’re pretty basic.”

“The next are Support Constructs! They provide buffs to you, instead of fighting for you. They can heal your injuries to keep you fighting, boost your attack power, turn you into a speedster - anything directly related to powering YOU up.” She nods. “The delivery girl’s dumb cat counts as one, but there’s a bit of crossover, since its weird big buff form can fight too. Crossover between types is rare, but it can happen.”

“The final is the type I have- an Object Construct!” She proudly waves to the BLACK BANDAGE masking her eye. “Unlike the other Construct types, they don’t have sentience, but they can be used like a tool! They’re kind of like a mix between Assault and Support Constructs, and there’s a big range. Maybe it’s a bag that has an infinite amount of storage, or a sword that can cut through anything - mine gives me PSYCHIC POWERS. His name is Descensus!”

“Now- any questions?”

“S-so-.. Why did you name yours like a person? And what does Descensus even mean, anyway..?” You ask, tilting your head at the CHUUNI. “Can it talk..? Does it have a personality?”
“Well, for your INFORMATION, Descensus sounds VERY COOL and MYSTERIOUS. I think it means something about going into hell or something..” Catastrovania rubs gingerly at her bandaged eye. “I named him because he’s important to me. And he doesn’t really talk, or have a personality, and I don’t think he’s technically- uh, alive- but I like to think that if he did have a personality, he’d be a little spicy.”
“And- and if I take it off, do you lose your powers until you get it back? And could I use your Constructive..?”
“N-no! You’re not taking Descensus.” She immediately takes a step back away from you. “But- yeah, if you take away an Object Construct, the Constructor can’t do anything about it. They lose their powers, and if you destroy the Construct, then it counts as having beaten them.. As for Constructives - those are based on the Constructor, not the Construct. The only one who can summon mine up is me.”

>>3355381

>what kind does number six have?

“S-so.. what kind does number six have..?” You ask hesitantly. “Is it- is it bad?”
“Hmm.. I’ve done some research online. Most sources I’ve been seeing are saying it’s.. MAGICAL GIRLS.” She adds dramatic pause, for effect. “Don’t know too much about the Constructor and the Construct. Heard that it’s pretty basic stuff, though.”
You can’t help but feel a bit of relief at the idea that your next opponent likely isn’t that much of a big deal. Some little girl, maybe- they like magical girls? Or, more creepily, some big fat old guy. You snort in amusement at the thought of fighting a big fat guy with an Object Construct that’s a magical girl uniform.

“Any more questions before your inevitable demise?” Catastrovania tilts her head.

>>3355436

“S-so, could someone else use- uh.. Descensus, if they managed to snag.. Him?” You ask hesitantly, glancing at the extremely protective chuuni and the black wrappings around her eye. Your prodding seems to have pushed her into maintaining a healthy distance between you two.
“I mean.. Yeah.” Catastrovania nods slowly, still glancing between you and Twink Daddy. “Don’t try it.”

>"Did you get the REESE’S PEANUT BUTTER CUPS I lift for you?"
>did you get the ice cream out of your dress?
>You're bullied? Your sister mentioned something like that. Are you ok?

“S-so, um.. about last week. D-did you get the REESE’S PEANUT BUTTER CUPS I got for you? A-and, the ice cream out of your dress?” You ask, still cringing a little at the embarrassing memories of her.
“I received your silly nut-based chocolate confectionery. And- no. I didn’t get the ice cream out. I had to buy another one.” She mutters under her breath, averting her eyes. “It’s okay. It doesn’t cost much.”
“Are you, uh- are you bullied..? Your sister mentioned something like that. Are you okay..?” You ask quietly.
“Did she say that?” Catastrovania noticeably frowns at the mention of it. “I- well.. It’s not really bullying. They’re not shoving me into lockers or putting razors in my shoes or whatever. They just make fun of quests and my dresses and stuff. It doesn’t bother me, anyways.”

>What do you do?

Can... can BL make a constructive, or have Catastrovania tell us how she made her own? Also what's the point of them outside of being convenient, themed fighting locales.

Ask about Dark Fantasy quest poster. It stands out from the others.

Following briefly considering breaking the fourth wall, you turn to the chuuni. “C-can I make my own Constructive..? Or- or can you tell me how you made your own? And, what’s the point of them outside of being, l-like.. convenient and themed fighting places..?”

“Mmm. Well, the thing is- technically, a Constructive is really just a Construct. The different name is just to make things easier on people.” Catastrovania folds her arms. “To make it easy for you to understand, basically everyone has a Constructive based on the FOOLISH MORTAL JUNK that they enjoy and their MENTAL STATE, and everything in them is a Construct - the fake people, fake chairs, fake plants and doors. They just can’t tap into it. When someone gets strong and takes in too much media, a Construct - maybe an object, or an animal, or a robot, or whatever’s in there - starts to expand in power until they can basically push their way out of your forehead and enter our world to get in fights. When they get REALLY strong, the Constructor themself can basically open a door into their own weird mental state and take people in with them.”

“So- basically, you already HAVE a Constructive. The problem is figuring out how to open one. And if you can’t, I don’t really know how to help you.” She shrugs uncaringly. “You’ll figure it out. It’s like tying your shoes or making a summoning circle. As for ‘making’ one, a good Constructor can manipulate some aspects of them - choosing different people to represent or changing the architecture of some stuff, but not all powerfully to summon infinite cheeseburgers or make a massive army of Constructs to assault you with. It’s always gonna include aspects of your own MENTAL STATE and some of your INTERESTS. There are unwritten, but unbending rules to them that people have to follow. That’s why MINE is so cool! I ride the subway, but in my Constructive, you can kind of see ICARUS CITY through the window..!”

“O-okay.” You digest what she’s broken down for you. “I-if number six comes- would y-”

Your words are cut off as Starphase opens the door without knocking prior. She glances to you. “Someone’s here for you.” She states flatly, her face empty. Catastrovania takes a step foward, but Starphase quickly shakes her head. “Not Catastrovania. Just her.”

“I-it’s been fun, and- hope we get a chance to hang out again..!” You immediately decide to get the fuck out, approaching the window in the chuuni’s room- only to find that the drop from here is a pretty substantial one. You did end up pretty sweaty after climbing the stairs to get to this address, after all. You glance over your shoulder and back to Starphase. “Wh-who was the person on the other side of the door?”

Starphase shrugs. “Some guy knocked and said he had some business with you. I didn’t open the door.”

>Have TD Confront Stalker.
>Have BL stay where she is.

After much hesitant adieu, Twink Daddy decides to bite the bullet and head out to confront the guy waiting on the other side. He steps out, his pointy face a mask of solemnity in the face of danger, while you cower in the room. He steps into the living room: the door leading outside doesn’t seem to be any different than prior. Occasional, however, he hears an errant knock from the other end, alongside the sight of shadows shifting underneath the door.

>What do you do?

>>3357359
Use one floating hand to open the door, while at that distance.
Prepare a Twinkly Shot and your other fist just in case.

>>3357359
Answer the door

>>3356943
Exactly the dark magical girl subgenre has actually grown to a noticeably large body so for the love of us we can't underestimate a magical girl construct probably also a bad idea to underestimate someone who was in the top 5

Couldn't we just used t.d.'s gravity defying hands to let us down the only possible problem was if t.d. could do the same to himself

>Use one floating hand to open the door, while at that distance.

>Answer the door

With one hand nearing the door and the other clenched into a fist, a twirling, white hot TWINKLY SHOT hovers in preparation by his carved features. He very slowly and gently opens the door to the stranger on the other side, ready to jump the second he sees anything suspicious. Luckily, if it really is something like MAHOU SHOUJO- he probably doesn’t have much to expect save for some creepy old guy or a little girl-

“Oy. Number one’s here, right?” The eyepatched man leans against the door frame. Some cigarette smoke seems to hang idly by his face, and the dark-skinned girl next to him remains solemn and silent. A single hand remains close to her KATANA. “It’s six. Magical girls. I’m looking for her.”

This does NOT look like magical girls.

>What do you do?

>>3356519
Probably just opening ourselves up will open the door to our constructive
>>3357359
Prepare to protect ourselves and open the door.
Why don't more constructors just break in really? Why do they have to make us open the door? The least they could do is say they are a constructor if they're knocking.

>>3357438
Oh
OH WOW!
Have TD tell them that if they want to talk to Number One they need to talk to him first.

They don't HAVE to know TD is her construct yet after all, and seeing how they will react should give a measure on how brutal these guys plan to be.
Idk, i'm kinda talking outta my ass.

“Well, this is the home of the #7. #1 lives somewhere else.” Twink Daddy responds curtly. “I know #1 and #7 can look similar on paper, so maybe you mixed u-”
“Namahage.” The taller man glances toward the girl.
“5 AM, we arrived at the N-HK Apartment Block today. We received an anonymous tip on the Sunday regarding a potential #1. We conducted surveillance until the resident woke up at 10 PM. She spent the next six hours on her PC prior to coming to this building.” The girl rattles off quickly. “We tailed her and the Construct for twenty minutes. We know she’s in here.”
“Yeah, me askin’ if she’s here is more of a formality, if anything.” He shrugs, resting on the wall. “I’m sure you know the whole song and dance. Just get her out here.”

>What do you do?

>Act as if you are going to get her but start making snacks instead.

Twink Daddy moves as if to get her, but instead turns to the extensive KITCHEN to make the pair a SNACK first!- At least, he might be able to squeeze some extra, useful information from them. “Hey, listen-” He begins in a BUTTERY SMOOTH voice.
“Quit wasting our fucking time and get her.” Namahage practically snarls, a hand creeping along the BLADE on her thigh.
“Namahage, relax, would’ya?” Trigger places a hand on her back, and she seems to take a breath. “But, yeah. Try to speed things along, bud. I got somewhere to be later.”

>fine.
>#6 already knows we're here also he might be a yakuza.

“.. Right.” Twink Daddy nods. “BL..!”
You begin to slowly creep out from the room at the sound of TWINK DADDY’s call, Catastrovania and Starphase following closely behind you. You peer through the door crack before stepping into the open, Cat and Star hanging back. “U-uh-.. H-hello.” You offer to the two awkwardly. The older man is 100% a YAK.
“Good to meet’cha.” The older man greets you, leaning against the wall. “Hate to meet under these circumstances, but.. I’m sure you know what’s comin’ next. Door over is all prepped for my Constructive.”

>What do you do?

As the older man turns around to walk into his Constructive, Twink Daddy attempts to take the opportunity to SLAP HIS ASS for maximum YAOI POWER, but Namahage almost immediately seems to catch on. She positions herself between TD and the YAK, backing up whilst maintaining eye contact with him. It seems that she knows what she’s doing.

>Ready Plunger
>Plunge man

As Twink Daddy tosses you your PLUGEON to prepare for the inevitable fight, the man glances back to you with a bemused look crossing his features. “.. Right, then. See you inside.” He scoffs, stepping over to the opened door - you catch a glimpse of pastel colors and the faint smell of alcohol from within it. “Oh, and- before we go- name’s Trigger Impact.”

The yakuza steps into Constructive and fades from sight. Namahage waits idly by, tapping her foot. “Hurry up.” She shoots you a look, crossing her arms. As you step forward with the plunger in your hands - the door from behind bursts open. “I, CATASTROVANIA STRIFAUST MORI- hey, where is he?” She frowns, now fully dressed up in the same brand of lolita dress that you ruined last week. “I was gonna challenge him, too-..”

“...” Namahage seems to be visibly shaking in utter ANNOYANCE.

“U-uh- I like your dress..!” You exclaim, despite having already seen that dress. “W-would you like to, uh- would you like to come along..?”
“Tcch. I’m only coming along because you’d NEED my help when facing a HIGH RANKING CONSTRUCTOR.” Catastrovania smugly smirks, crossing her arms. “A-and Starphase told me that I should try to spend some more time out of the house, so..”
Namahage seems to want to protest, but she bites her tongue. “Whatever. Whatever. Just go THROUGH already.”

After spending a GREAT DEAL of unneeded time to anger Namahage - you begin to step through the Constructive door and into the sixth Contructive.
