Pound Cake stopped sitting on the Hanako, and Hanako could finally catch a beater.

Pound Cake: "No more playing around with you. I don't know how you are this durable, but it's time to end it by hitting you with the strongest thing that I know, and it is my body."

Hanako looked as Pound Cake was getting ready to jump on her. This is a devastating attack that, if it lands, Hanako will lose this fight. This is the important decision to make.

As the remaining wolves sit down to marinate on their new lives, Eiko turns her gaze to Vi, who looks back. All the exhaustion seems to hit her at once. She nearly stumbles, shaky on her one good foot and spear. Vi slumps and steps forward, as if to dive and catch her.

Fuuuck. Why does Vi have to be so nice?

>Say your goodbyes to Vi...

The rational, logical, part of Eiko's mind agrees. The part of her that saw Vi, a new threat in her apartment, as something she could use. That use has paid off now, so she should let it go. And yet...

The dark, selfish, part of her wants to ask Vi to join them. To suffer with her, if only so she wouldn't be alone with all these unfamiliar entities.

No offense.

But what if she dies? What if Eiko's selfish wish gets Vi killed? Them both killed? What if Vi says no? Why does that thought feel even heavier?

Would it hurt to ask?

There is no point in crying over spilled milk. What is done is done, nowhere next to move but forward.

Communicate. She's got a good ability in that future-sight, so she won't be a burden. It'll still be dangerous, but she deserves the chance to make that choice, rather than you making it for her.

Speaking of danger, everyone make a note here-- only ask for something via Foolish Gambit if the backlash won't completely cripple us. Anything that involves the senses is a no-go; losing our senses penalizes US as well as our host.

Uh... you should keep an eye on Vex. Make sure he doesn't just screw you over at the end and bolt with the loot.

Tell Vi that... well, you're not happy with how you turned out. Even if your inner darkness helped you find love. All this hatred, this rage... and now this envy. It's eating at you. And it won't stop eating until you remove what's fueling it.

Because right now, you wish Vi could have seen the girl you once were. You wish Kenji could have seen you and Vi together as that girl. And you'll never find a way to be that girl again while the angelic fucks continue to mold people into things they aren't. Like Kenji. Kinda like Julien. And of course, how they want to mold you from not-dead to dead.

Bye, Vi. Keep the packs loosely united, and you'll do okay.

A combination of sorts.
The words in

But
The choice should be hers as
>>1128056
Highlights.

So much cost to break free of people who would control you...
The only way to honour that is allowing the same freedom for others, even if it scares you to do so.

She truly would make a good pack mother, keeping them all connected. A hub of a great wheel of families that could keep the peace and unify the pavks to respond to danger...
But, that isnt a burden you can hang on her with a word.
She has to choose to pick it up.
And it is possible what she wants, needs, isnt to be found here, but with you.
Even if part of you fears the consequences, thinks itd be a mistake...
She deserves to choose.

If she does come, suggest the idea of a pack mother to the families anyway.
Not an authority, but an intermediary. Messenger, advisor and arbiter between the packs, but not a ruler. Never a ruler.

The stranger doesn't move so you cautiously take stock of you're condition. It hurts to move, that you notice right away. Your back screams at you but you manage to sit yourself up against the cage bars. Your toes and tail all move as you command, so you suppose you're lucky.

Eyes adjusting to the darkness, you glance around. The cage you are in is rather spacious, for a rat. Thin vertical bars rise to a tapered peak. The room around is cluttered with several other cages, piled on top of boxes and battered human scale furniture. One side of the room is dominated by a dark curtain, pinpricks of light picking their way through the weave. Oddly enough the other walls depict moonlit landscapes, quiet towns and farms. Its like this room is meant to be perpetual night.

Your glare returns to the mouse in roughspun robes across from you. A short coughing fit prevents your first inquiry. He gathers up his hem and rises, padding quietly to your side. He holds out a waterskin to you and speaks in a soft voice. "Be at ease, my son. Your time in the wilderness has ended, for the good lord watches over you now."

The mouse's tail tip sways, drawing your eye, then flicking it towards something above the center of the room.

Descending from the ceiling is a metal tube ending in the most ridiculous thing you've ever seen. A metal trumpet and curved glass are framed by tiny winged humans, of all things. The whole of it glitters golden even in the dim light.

Check your surroundings some more. Seems like you might be in some kind of Chapel or some kind of worship room in the house.

Casey's in her world now, she's really gonna be in for a pleasurable treat.

Give in and enjoy it.

Fennel could get something equivalent to a fishtank helmet or magic water bubble she can cover her head with. It might let other hear her true underwater voice. Maybe even suggest it to artsy Fey like Vivian for performances!

Meanwhile, Kol is about to be a cum eclair and/or get pregnant with that level of mating energy after a month of Selkie abstinence. Hopefully that bite isn't too visceral/painful.

Fennel pulls away and giggles, “As much as I’d like to draw things out, I imagine you have stuff you’ve gotta do. Am I right?”

Casey nods and shrugs as if to say, it is what it is.

The undine leans forward, and speaks softly into her ear. “That’s okay, we’ll have plenty of time to fool around later. Just come back and see me sometime soon.”

Casey nods and gives her a thumbs up.

“Though, how about a little taste before you go?”” Fennel says, twitching her fingers.

Casey feels a current surround her, swirling in a tight loop that wraps around her waist. The light pouring off her body reveals the shapes of several tendrils coiling invisibly in the gloom. She watches as one bunches up below her before flowing up inside her pussy in one smooth motion.

Her squeak is muffled by the water as the elemental’s tendril starts pumping in and out; acting so much like her own binding spells. Another loops around her tail before slipping into her back entrance with little effort and stretching her open. A third slips in between her shivering thighs and teases her clit: dragging itself across the sensitive nub and sucking at it like an invisible tongue. More curl into view and squeeze her breasts, flicking at her nipples and caressing her sides. If she were able to breathe, the mouse-turned-angel would be panting, but instead she gasps wordlessly underwater as the elemental’s magic drives her towards a rapid and explosive climax.

Kol’s moans hit a crescendo as he finishes coating both himself and Caleb’s chests in cum. The corners of the selkie’s mouth curl up into a smile as he keeps hanging on by the teeth. Hearing Kol’s climax, Caleb’s pace speeds up; looking for his own finish.

The little rock grotto echoes with the slap of two wet, hot bodies. Having been pent up for the last month, Caleb pounds a thick, hard welcome into his husband-to-be. His scarred back shines under the waterfall as powerful muscles flex and tighten in a prelude to his climax. The taste and smell of the man he loves fill his senses, driving the sailor into a shark-like frenzy of thrusts.

Caleb’s pace falters for just a moment and then again as the inevitable begins. His hips slam against Kol’s ass one last time, hilting himself as his balls tighten themselves against his body. Hot, steaming growls come hissing between the selkie’s teeth, still buried in the mouse’s shoulder.

“Hrrrrgh! Hhhhrg! Hhaaarrrh!”

Kol stares, wide-eyed, at the false sky of the bathroom; his breath hitching as the first pulse of cum hits his insides. With the dam of pent up lust finally broken, Caleb lets loose and fills the mouse until his well-fucked tail-hole is leaking long trails of white. Even then, the flow doesn’t stop: the fey’s backed up balls emptying themselves into the clenching, gasping guardian and marking him deep inside.

>Let's take that Lucidity check.
Alright then:

That’s just two hits to our Lucidity putting you at 20/22.
You take a moment to gauge which of these tubes you should be keeping track of. You of course can immediately rule out any ducts. You spy the label “HOT” on one of the piping, crossing it and anything else similar sized off your list as they most likely are for fluids. Looking at the largest pipe, you also determine that’s not your target because while backbone cables can get huge you doubt they’d be the biggest given all the other support systems here. For pretty much the same reason you dismiss the smallest tubing as well, those might just be electrical for the lighting in the area. That boils it down to two possibilities, and then down to just the one as the other pipes seem to be built to handle fluid pressures rather than just containment.

You figured it out! Possibly! Now all that’s standing between you and the cable is some metal grating and some thick plastic/rubber/textile tubing. Regardless, this should help narrow down which hallways you should take in future decisions.

So now, do you...
-Start wandering down passageways in search of a terminal in a not-as aimless fashion.
-Find the nearest closest or tool chest for some powertools to get directly to the conduit.
-Go ahead with the Mx. Stibbs plan to turn your life around.

Be warned, I’ve rolled the dice and have set a turn limit for how long you can hang around without anyone noticing. I’m sure you’ll figure something out if you do run out time regardless, but just letting you know.

Go get that job!

>flip the secret princess tiara upside down so that you can wear it like a necklace. more discreet that way.

>Go to Mx Stibbs office and check whether they're actually in there or not. Keep an eye out for a terminal along the way

Nah, that's opening up for things to go wrong if your enemy is competent. Show off by doing the job quickly and effectively that you and the machine can work professionally.

You rush in, aiming to cut the arms off, when all of a sudden it seems to stop and fire its boosters backing away from the blade, beam casters raised.

What's your next move?

I hope the beam saber can deflect beams

Unless you have some booster left to quickly close the distance, you'd better pivot to be feet-first when he shoots. Less risk of damaging a more valuable part.

Use your feet to kick a weapon or two away, then springboard off the mech and return to your getaway vehicle before it's too late.

Dad works at SnakeEye, Mom does too. They employ a lot of the people in town. They made the app with the creepy eyeball on my phone.

>>1127972
Yeah, that's the one. I'm saving it for a special occasion. Sweaters and normal pants are fine for day to day stuff.

>Wardrobes and Closets.
That...might actually be an interesting connection. I'll think more about it after the call.

Should I ask Mom anything else before we hang up to look at social media?

Tell your mom that you love her very much. I know the next thing that I am going to say will sound like a conspiracy theory but is there a connection with all unexplainable things that you saw with the app that your famy made? Are they using you as a lab rat?

No further questions. Maybe bring up hearing about the burglar you read about since mom mentioned the jar of coins being missing, but let her know you hope they find it somewhere to end the topic
End the conversation telling her you love her, and you gotta go eat breakfast before it gets soggy.

just tell you're mom you think someone took one of your "sweaters" and that you've been hearing some rumors of a bunch of people losing things. They're saying there's some serial cat burglar running around... uh, quick question, a cat burglar means someone who is just a petty thief and not an actual cat person right? I know in some areas the meaning can change.

But yeah, you can thank you're mom for calling to check up on you, hope dad did just misplace his totally not a swear jar, and you need to go and start up a shower before you're ready to face the day. The shower part is just to stop her from asking questions if she remembers before you hang up by giving her an excuse to why you need to hang up.

Oh and don't forget to say you love her before you hang up, parents love hearing things like that.

You should definitely wear that special outfit to impress auntie with your fashion sense! Btw, was your Uncle Mike her husband?

Tell your mom you love her.

Let her know that right now, the knife and pickaxe is acting as a plug to keep her blood in, and you suggest she doesn’t pull this out, sit down and wait for the ranger to get here to get her to a hospital to treat her internal injuries.

Rapid foot thumping to show how serious you are.

Dig the pickaxe into her ribcage and pull it off like a crowbar until she surrenders.

Okay! You guys got a little longer because of IRL stuff I'm so nice, but it's now time to gather and process everyone's save files!

If you have an in-progress save, it's probably best to use the menu to export that save and post it now. If it's posted soon, we might still be able to add the saves to the pile. That said, the submission period is officially over so the longer you wait, the higher the chance the save file won't be used. Sooner is better!

The results will be posted likely either FRIDAY or MONDAY, alongside with the continuation of Dragon Romance. Stay tuned!

This is late but I figured I'd paste it in anyway! I enjoyed the game!

"Look who's the boss of you now!" crowed Slime, even though it wasn't currently a crow "Now Dance!"

"ehhhhh couldn't you eat me instead?" whined Littlest Cat.

"No. Do an apology dance."

So they did and it was actually really good. For a gang of wild animals they had great choreography.

With that settled Slime left Fox and Squirrel in charge while it took the feral gang and some other exploratory minded animals to go into the big city. Slime was itching to see what the other Slime had been up to.

> Huh, there really are humans still around? That's weird. I thought we were all of them? Maybe things are not what they seem...
Sam note: Slime is the human souls from the previous universe (me). Now we're in the universe reborn (also me). What's fun is that while the people of the last universe were colonizing this one I made sure to keep Sol here exactly the same so there would be a fresh crop of humans, and yet history still turned out different. Take that determinism!

I didn't take long for Slime to find Slime and Slime hanging out by the library. The goopy fox rushed over to sweep its ant and crow counterparts into a slimy hug. It was such a warm and comfy hug that all of Slime merged back together, taking on wolf shape once again. The AI were looking rather nonplussed at this (Librarian was watching on from an advertising display screen she had taken over), but Wolf just shrugged. "That's Slime for ya, what a goof."

"Well, anyway" Foreman grumbled "We was going over what you need to take you up north."

A: Hovercraft
B: All terrain train
C: Biiiig Vtol

"As well, you need some pilots. I can't leave the library untended, so not me." said Librarian "Also I need to keep Coordinator distracted so he doesn't blab."

E: track down some true ai to pilot
F: Adapt the controls to animal pilots
G: Adapt animals to use the controls

Foreman turned his huge body to peer between the buildings to the distant shore. The bulk of an evacuation ship occupies the horizon, nearly as long as the city. "Ya know, that thing's not doing anything. Could get it sea worthy without too much work. Make a hell of an ice breaker."

>Take that determinism!
What about the quantum foam? What about all the other atoms of the universe? Determinism only holds in a closed system. If there is *any* outside interference, no matter how small, tiny changes can snowball into larger ones. Not always, of course, because some things are self-reinforcing, but the more changes the more likely it is to turn out different.

B. Tank treads should work ok.
E. I suspect they will exist in any appliance not mass-produced for residential use.
K, but that's not really a problem. Setting Foreman on it as a long-term project would be fine. Plus it gives our growing animal civilization something to do.

Reiko runs through each automated calculation to pick out a 'least-ish bad' firing option, opting for a strategy that causes considerable extra debris but at slow velocities, seeing as the asteroid field is meant to act as a border wall rather than a detriment to trade.

Reiko takes a few moments to breathe, get used to connecting to the weapons systems, and triple-confirm the targeting solution. She fires at the asteroid in their way.

An ever-repeating chain of broken porcelain promises; her own foolish reflection of that tragedy.

Natalina, currently unable to speak effectively, in an attempt to answer Paprika's question, gestures helplessly at the display with the "disaster relief" results, mimes using a needle, and then indicates herself. ("What's wrong? That horror over there, and how it's similar to the deal I struck in the City of Needles").

...hopefully this episode passes, she doesn't want to have to communicate entirely with charades. She'll answer better later. The hysterical laugher at least gets quieter as she presses into Paprika's embrace.

Right.

Use tremors to build a massive expansion set to the left, but then apply metal runes and further earth runes to add reinforcements. This makes the area stable but easily amputated in the event of an emergency, like a giant voidling hungering for matter. Future expansions will arc out in 120-degree angles, so we have three of these semi-permanent expansions settling across our island. As the island grows we want these settlements to grow increasingly interconnected, but with enough looseness that getting hooked in one extension won't compromise the rest. We also need to add future expansions below the circle, but those will require a workforce that can handle high-stress situations. The part at the far left is meant to be for future expansion or ore deposits, depending on the speed of island development.

>>1127843
The area to the left is an outcropping because we're keeping the mushroom farm away from other things. Expanding the farm is worth considering since now we have a lot more mouths to feed, but we don't want to put any non-mushroom activities near it, because their spores are dangerous in high concentrations.

...maybe we should consider collecting spores on purpose for making biological weapons?

>>1127812
I'd say dump at least 20 tremor/nature runes to expand the mushroom farm. Maybe mix in some Decay since that is the nature of mushrooms and it might boost our output. The mushrooms are also Toxin-aligned but we don't want to encourage that... or do we?

I think we should start experimenting with unconventional runes. How about to the south, since we don't have anything interesting in that direction? How about Tech by itself, for starters? I think Light by itself will be useless since it's not a physical concept. Try Light and Ore together? Maybe we can get some cool crystals. Also, let's try adding some weather to the island. A few runes of Climate, maybe Cycle too. Has the threat of cold passed now that we collected the Starmatter? Or was that because of Frozlyn? If it's still cold, you should make a heated dry area we can use for warmth. Ore and Flare runes, maybe Convection if you're feeling spicy. Also IIRC the plan was for us to use runes to make a large hollow structure that we can use for shelter. Throw some Ore, maybe Tech runes into making something like that North-ish of the Nexus. ...can you put the Starmatter into the Nexus?

...oh I jus

Here's another proposal; thick expansion meant to round out the island, with some additional foundation added next to the mushroom farm with barren earth for growing mineral deposits to mine later. The imps can take the tower, but they'll have to farm from both the mushrooms and the new farming zone.

A) The quest giver was the same for both of the heroes.

B) Somebody sabotaged the guild.

C) There was a mistake that caused this problem.

Well, if only one quest giver can give a quest to multiple heroes and two quest givers can't give the same quest to their own hero, then it stands to reason that hero 2's quest giver gave this quest they were responsible to assign a hero to to both the hog hammerer and hero 2, while being sneaky with hog hammerer.

If I were to guess why, the drowned spirit is a very difficult monster to deal with, labeled as a high danger. Probably something only a legendary or mastered rank hero can deal with on their own. Lower ranked heroes would need to partner with another hero to stand a chance. For one reason or another, I guess the quest giver was desperate to get a partner for hero 2, and decided to pull this malicious stunt on hog hammerer to do so.

With all the evidence points to the option A). The pig was correct this is a huge conspiracy.

B) It still sounds like there is an imposter, that or someone is copying quests

Loquui heroically steps in to save the Consort's really dumb dah-een. She pushes her sister aside and secures the non-person. "WAIT!" she cries.

"Loquui. You live?" Muamta sounds shocked. That's a little insulting. Loquui was not the one who fell to her death, that was Muamta.


"Why is it a shock that Loquui lives? Loquui not so stupid she cannot live without help."

"Yes you are."

"No, I'm not."

"You are."

"The Consort is amazing, it is no surprise the nonpeople lust after him too" Muamti sighs.

"...he is good." Naqzamti agrees.

Loquui is conflicted. One the first claw, she is proud that she was first to see the Consort's divinity. She is also happy the Consort lives, and vindicated that he shows his prowess over Loquui's sisters. Oon the other claw Loquui is furious and also wants to kill Muamta because she is clearly trying to steal the Consort from Loquui. But Loquui always wants to kill Muamta.

"Why are you here instead of with the Consort then?"

"Yahn ask us to find supplies." Shokzali says "He will find a great vessel for us and we will leave this place to make a new clan. A clan for the Consort!"

The Consort was going to leave...without Loquui?

>This makes no sense! They must be lying! The Consort would not betray Loquui!

>>Rejoin the sisters. Trust that Yahn has a plan and Loquui is part of it.
>>Loquui should interrogate Muamta! No, she is too big. Interrogate Shokzali, she knows you are first consort.
>>Take command, return to Yahn and demand an explanation. Resist urge to mate.

First option. The Consort will be elated when he sees you coming back with the others.

He can probably help our spy rats lose their fear again after they've been too petrified to go out and do spy work or even scout the area ever since the Shadow Taker killed one of their own. (Don't tell him about our rats being spies for now.) Mainly I'd love to use his fear feasting abilities on our rats . If I remember, when Shadow Taker attacked the castle, the spy rats did nothing but hide, and didn't even scout the area to find the cat in the first place.

Tell him that while you agree losing complete fear from fighters can be detrimental as it can lose a sense of danger, having too much fear is also just as bad, as if a soldier's fear overcomes the act to fight, defend, or simply just go out to scout or search, it could cause an entire kingdom's civilians getting robbed, killed, or kidnapped

Possible answers to the question that was asked:

A) Insist that you don't want to be separated from your lantern.

B) Give the guard your lantern.

C) Tell him that the master of the castle agreed that you don't need to give it.

D) Other suggestions.

I'm afraid this is a very precious item that cannot be entrusted in just any hands. If you'll call up my associate (Gramleza) I can entrust it to them.

>>1127782

3. Maybe that little bit of time with them to talk to them about the outside world and what you went through would be enough to spark something, maybe support Rae against her brother, and maybe even bring the circle to a newer better direction over one of domination. Of course we might not be able to convince everyone in the circle, but getting as much as we can might make the difference.

2, No point in dragging out the party's suffering and making Rae suffer by seeing them in pain. Let's get straight to the point.

As much as i want to suggest going straight to brother, to stop the pain.
It may be that this is worth considering.
>>1127411
We have some indication there is more flexibility of thought among the group than we hoped.

However, seeing brother fight and how he leads is important too. If its a limited opportunity, that could be more important.

1) Go see Kayk. The threat is that she’s a dragon, obviously.

Ugh.

2) Time for the painful family gathering.
We can should also talk to Ailin and Fergal about how they and the Circle have fared these past few years, and how Ciarán has led them.
