Gabe looks around at the crowd around the docks and grabs Cole’s hand. “Hmmm, I mean… if you wanna? I’ve got enough time for a quickie, I guess.”

The fae looks baffled as he’s dragged around the corner and into an alleyway between a pair of warehouses. The dark, narrow passage extends for a few feet before ending in a bricked-up doorway: a tiny space that has afforded many a horny sailor a moment of privacy.

The changeling grins, finding himself suddenly alone with his unsuspecting quarry. Mistaking this for eagerness, the mouse pulls him closer.

“Sorry, no pocket dimension today. I’m just about tapped out on mana.” Gabe says, dropping to his knees. His hands quickly find their way to Cole’s belt buckle and fumble for a moment before it slips loose. “Hey, you meant your fiancé, right? Isn’t Caleb, like, basically your husband?”

“Eh?” Cole grunts before Gabe tugs his cock free and begins caressing it. “Ah! Ohhh~”

“You like that?” Gabe asks. His hand pumps expertly at the growing erection and he licks the tip, tasting an early drop of pre-cum. “Spite me, dude. How are you still this pent up after last month?”

Now roleplay some anal vore or something

Gabe's going to identify him by taste, isn't he?

Seems like Kool was planning to overpower / mug / violence Gabe rather than have sex, and was using sexy times to isolate his quarry. And might not be used to such affection / is adorably bashful about it.

Gabe meanwhile keeps rolling nat 1's on his insight checks.

Either Gabe is gonna orgasm him into breaking his masquerade, or Kool is about to fall in love with him and willingly break it. And Gabe is going to be very confused.

Kol: "How did you know he was a doppelganger?"
Gabe: "He was a doppelganger?"

>>1129374
Pent up? Nah Gabe just has that effect on him.

You could use a bath, I forgets the last time you got an opportunity. Hopefully the briefing doesn't need charts.

It's called parallel work and it's efficient. If she briefs you after you bath you're doing work in sequence and you're losing valuable time that you could be using to put plans in motion. Let her brief you while you bathe

>>1111277
They make a good point boss, it's efficient, and you demonstrate your trust in her.

(Caught up on DiveQuest at last! First time contributing to one of these, I hope I'm doing it right.)

A bigger deal to consider with being connected with a deity is that it is unfathomable in thinking and morality. And that there is a possibility it is influencing you without you realizing it (think marionette happily dancing its jig).

What if this being manipulates you, or worse, demands outright, that you commit a supernatural atrocity? Something that aligns with your goals but you as a person would vehemently oppose?

What if the deity decides that you need to be offed like Red Fang was?

We've seen firsthand that a deity is able to inflict punishments worse than death (arguably). What if your protector of the weak decides it smite 'the strong' on a scale of nations?

Let's not forget some truly outstanding coincidences that occurred around Muschio.

Such as him accidentally burning down an entire town via an unlikely domino effect of events.

Or how a person he buried alive is now one of his most trusted allies.

Divinity hanging over Muschio might be literally manifesting these coincidences.

It's also possible that most visions are the divinity doing the equivalent of 'Look what I did!' to Muschio.

A) I will help you with getting back your construct if you raise the payment reward for all of the quest performances.

B) I don't think that I can help you with that.

C) I don't want to get involved with that.

B. I think this will cut into time that we can be doing other important things, like meeting with Chirpins next time.

Just let her know that maybe Shrimpy can convince him? But if she is not up to doing it, maybe this is something she should probably bring up with Dizelu so he can reprimand that hero for stealing her construct.

B) that does sound like irresponsible behaviour on their part. We can certainly tell the one hero that they will have to return the construct. Pet or not, it isn't theirs. As for actually disciplining them, we are only a clerk and haven't the authority. We can back your word that the constructs were all sent out in working order, if you wish to pursue the matter further with the guild.

A) if we can help her with this problem at least she could raise the reward.

oh hello. you look like you were expecting us

GOOD GRAVY WE'RE NAKED!

Upon closer inspection, it appears to be your finger. You are even more confused than you were before.

As you try to formulate any type of plan, you hear a knock from the inner wall, followed by a thud on the floor.

>>1129333
...guess that's not being reattached.
Anyway, go check on the thud.

Oh, crud. Keep your hand close, don't lose sight of it.

Let's move very slowly and soundlessly to where the sound came from.
It sounds like someone was throw against the wall, and we don't want to alert the perpetrator.

Finger's a loss right? best slip it into the wood bin before anyone sees it.

want to hang onto the hand though. do any of the cabinets open? maybe there's a bag in one.

the thud can wait a bit

Possible answers to the question that was asked:

A) Remain silent and do not try to get their attention.

B) Try to distract them.

C) Tell Maya Din to talk with them.

D) Other suggestions.

Don't talk to them, don't even look at them. Just let them pass you.

No doubt, if we lesser demons went in with Bobbie, that statue would have sensed us too. Maybe it was best we didn’t go in with her after all…

Anyway, C, then maybe D. I get the sense this person wanted to speak with Bobbie, so maybe while Bobbie speaks with steinhardt, we can talk to them.

Maya will test the waters, start a conversation, ask who they are looking for as she might be able to help, and from there Abdle can reveal himself or not.

C

Honestly... Steal Swiss. Go room. Bed-breaking sex. Then snuggle bed times.

Aren't we in a library... Oh God, who is going to pay for damages. Better skedaddle home and goon.

Don't defeat Not Maya. She's your Shadow. You just kind of... have to live with her. Try to accept what she's telling you, without agreeing with it. And try to talk to a doctor about this. When you can. They have medicine for... this sort of thing.

remember to touch his ears with your good hand, not the one with glass in it. you dont want to glass his ear

I can get on board with this, plus think of the stress relief, i mean with a day like today it'll probably help you get settled in with your new people nicely aswell

Tell him you'd like to discuss something in private. Once we're somewhere we can't be overheard, you can bring up your memories and about how you're not sure why you lost them in the first place.

You tell Hannibal you two need to talk, privately, for 'old time's sakes'.

Fox, what does that mean?

>>1129303
"You're still an asshole."

Hannibal goes quiet for a moment and then asks.

Okay then... where do you want to meet?

Is there a cheap food stand around here?

Wait no

...yeah let's eat somewhere decent instead.

Let's go on that private tour.

Ask her if she wants to have a cock and balls again

>>1129350
We are trying to be subtle here...

Go on tour, continuing our tiny modifications as we go.

tell her the tour sounds lovely and ask her to lead the way.

Just remember to ask a lot of questions so she has to focus on you just as much as the tour and to keep your subtle manipulations going on her whenever she looks your way or talks to you. Once the manipulations start getting her noticeably aroused start acting like you're getting more comfortable around her and become a little more clingy. As in moments when you can't think what to talk about walk close enough for your shoulders to touch or even try and hold her hand if you think she wouldn't mind. If she tells a joke or a happy story give her a quick hug when expressing your own joy. And every time the two of you touch make the subtle pleasure rise slightly for when your touch last longer then a moment or in instances where the contact is brief give her a sharp and large amount of pleasure but make it so quick it could easily be dismissed as a trick of her mind.

Other than that go through the tour and show genuine interest in both what she's talking about and in her, be friendly and kind and show you're starting to open up to her yourself and trust her more, and never leave her side to keep the manipulations up even if she tries to distance herself from you to make it seem like she is getting hella worked up around you.

Oh and on a side note, if she ever makes any remarks or jokes about dating, hanging out, or just being around you give a small jolt of pleasure to her only slightly more noticeable then what you're doing to her normally to "encourage" these thoughts and a much sharper and stronger jolt if she ever mentions anything about sex or making out to you, while you yourself will always take such questions or remarks as her just being friendly and opening up to you to keep up the air of innocents you're trying to build up.

I’m liking what I’m hearing! Let’s also use our subtle rewards system for any time she interacts with her new flower. We’ve given her an object that she associates with us~ That object should quickly become her favorite thing, and if she gets pleasant tingles from looking at and/or touching it, that’ll certainly speed the progress along~ Gives us an extra hook to wiggle into her heart. “Ohhhh~ Why do I feel like this when I pay attention to the flower?? Do I feel the same way about… him??? *looks at us and the feeling intensifies* M-Maybe…” Every little detail counts~

Hmmm. The butt priestess offered to help us with Slime Swamp, but if we piss this guy off we'll probably miss out on his help with the Dick Shrine. We should probably do that first.

Hey, dick priest. Can you tell me anything about the Crystal Labyrinth or Mt Boner?

Butt priestess wants the religion district to be less grimy and more synchronized or something. Maybe you could just move.

>>1129252
Well.
A lot of these prayers are old and moldy.
No wonder the new ones arent getting through.

He needs a good clean cock, not a big dirty dick.
That way every new prayer has a better chance of being seen...
And
People will have to donate more often rather than being a one pray and done

We all know where this is going.

We are going to make the priest of each shrine talk things out, solve their differences with sexy results, and form a syncretic religion.

This will, of course, eventually cause a schism between the dick-in-butt and the dickbutt shrines that will lead to a long and horrid war, but that won't be a problem for another 100 years!

...For you to solve, heroes are iconic, and thus eternal. Natch!

>>1129252
This makes me wonder if there is a forgotten Big belly womb and Pussy shrine that was lost and perhaps why the rat king is several rats a multitude born from one or several pussies that would be important for balance and creation.

Also funny that a dragon is of but and a Goblin of dick bit of a reversal.
Perhaps we need butt priestess covered in cum with a thong with filled condoms tied to it and let her get tailed with dicks asshoöe and oussy filled with cum so she can birth the big dick dragon and the butt Goblin in a time loop scenario of the Guardian spirits

>>1128969
The problem isn't that she's above your challenge rating, it's that she's a racist nutjob. Ah, well.

>>1128972
You might want to consider building some guard-rails. Nothing fancy, just stick some rusted weapons in the ground and tie a few ropes across each pommel.

Recall if the stairs are safe, or if it's better to wait for the pullies to be repaired.

Try to recall a favorite spot down below, and how a trip down the stairs will do ya good.

>>1128969
Aw, she's blushing. I think she likes us! I hope we can meet her again some time.

>"Don't men eat cod too?"
If another man looked at Brandubh that way, I bet he'd take it as a compliment. Lots of guys are into that sort of thing. It's not like we haven't considered it. With our friend. Not our brother. I think.

Come to think of it, how is our seafaring buddy doing? How did we meet, and how is our relationship now? Any interesting stories we can recall?

Deep breaths, don't worry about a thing for now.

Just focus on your memories.

Try to recall your family, who they are, what you have lived with them, what they taught you.

This will also help you recall common knowledge and etiquette. Family takes priority, of course, but it all ties together.

1 yes but itll cost you twice next time. today was a promotional special

Yessssssss more nighty special!

>>1129008
Mmmnh.
Its such a good promotion.
And! Its only important the nightie is on when the delivery is made.
Some easily sheddable outer clothes and you could pull that off with minimal risk.

Also, cute cute nighty.
Very daring.

Wait! This is a nun who pretends to be in favour of censorship, but is secretly sus.

If people like that can thrive in this church, it will become more and more nonesensical and harmful over time.
In 50 years it will be full of angry nuns lashing out at anything lewd other than themselves, young priests chocking themselves with their censor wands for fun, and gay fuschia bandit goats!

2) I'm sorry, but true happiness comes from things money can't buy: summoning a goddess just to tattletale on a naughty nun.

the outfit is one of the random possible surprises you get when you pay for expedited delivery, ma'am

Overcome your complete and totally unjustified revulsion and bow before him!

>>1129160
Hmm, definitely a madman. Won't even show his true face to his captives. Likely the deer is the only one who's seen it...

Bow and introduce yourself, and state that in defeat you are obligated to serve. What does your new master wish of you?

We have to get the fuck ou out of this fucked up rat utopia! Play along but stay alert all the time. Never forget where your allies are and look for any openings or flaws in the security.

So we are part of a puppet show, let's perform our roles to the best of our ability. Do what is asked of you, and if you can come closer to your friend, talk with them, and find out what they learned about this cage.

I have not come to kneel before you but to formally challenge you for the thorn!

>>1129026
Aw shit.
This is like the fox, chicken grain and boat puzzle.
But its fox rabbit, clothes and nudity.
...
..
Ok, its not really like that but you can still think logically.
Put rabbit out.
Or dotti out.

The important part is the door between them.
Then tell dotti to focus.
Get the illusions back.

Push dotti out. Dotti can be responsible for the laundry

Man, I missed that silly Lucha Liebre so much.

Push yourself out, shove Ginerva in. That way she can, um, mediate the fight. Yeah.

Spontaneous desire to wrestle the rabbit!

>>1129064
Noooo.
Serah is a sensible girl
Shed never do that...
Resist the temptation!

But have a really good, detailed think about it.
With diagrams.

And hope she doesnt pick up on your surging FIGHTING SPIRIT.
Because if she did?
Why, she might just start wrestling you right there.
And that would be awful
~Ooohhhh noooohhhhh~~♡

Yep, cute. Or gnarly, if you'd prefer. Perhaps even tubular.

So... what do Marnari keep as pets?
I'm also wondering if they contacted other aliens but rewrote the history books on that.

>>1129129
Oh hells yeah.
She a cutie.

Sorry youve got all this heavy stuff orbiting you baron.

yeah, she's pretty cute, in a different way than bro is cute. makes for a nice contrast

should probably get your coffee or whatever you came in here for and try not to dwell on the seething undercurrent of antihuman hatred that's seemingly simmering just under the surface of society and threatening to boil over, the barista and your bro don't hate you, and that's what really matters

Well shits happening, nothing really new there. Something is always going done somewhere you just happen to been caught in the crossfire this time. Grab your coffe, thank the cute one for said coffee, and I guess get to that thing you’re late for.

>>1128959
That feller is spooky and scary.
Hey.
I recognise him
Is he the guy who loaned you the harmonica?
Slinky.
He wants it back.

Ok, ok.
Putting my whimsy away.
Its possible theyre one of the original denizens remains.
Definitely a heavy set creature in life by the wide feet, long balancing tail and spread of the foot talons when it jumps.
Its caught in a loop of trying something that isnt working.
Suggests a command given and it having minimal autonomy.

All the same, we have info for the team
Get to the foot of the rope and we'll carry a message to come down quietly as theres one hostile skelamajig.

An unnecessary but interesting foray into the lore of our world: History has led us to broadly reject the idea of magic, but that has not stopped magical thinking. While we had once thought the world was magical, we were able to create detailed theories describing nearly every single mechanism and predict how systems would develop further and further forward. Anything that can be theorized about and predicted, we call science. We call everything else magic. The ways of science have become so advanced, in fact, that it is widely believed that everything can be explained by it in one way or another, though we may not know it yet.

Thus, the existence of magic is more of a philosophical question than a physical one. This leads to a big complication when it comes to the idea of a "soul", though. The word "consciousness" has come to replace the word "soul" in scientific discussions, but it hasn't replaced the idea. Fundamentally, the issue is that consciousness is pretty much impossible for us to define. We can describe aspects of our own conscious experience, but we can't actually observe consciousness in other people. A crucial step in the scientific method (The set of rules we follow to 'make' science) is observation, and since we can't make observations, we can't really apply science to consciousness. (There is debate about this, but the fact that there is debate at all is an indication of the issue)

The belief in an afterlife comes from a time before modern science, but it nonetheless stays relevant because of the questions science can't currently answer.

Also, it should be noted that the information you receive about our world comes from a tiny self-selected slice of the population, so you aren&#

Fox here. This one isn't urgent. So... Souls. In some parts of existence, as far as the locals are concerned, there is no empirically observable gods, no empirically observable souls, no empirically observable magic, no empirically observable afterlife, no observable aspects of reality with an inherent moral agenda at all. In those places, sometimes the word 'soul' even gets used to describe the body parts made of matter! In that part of things, there is a deterministic, matter-based reality, based on reductionist principles with bottom-up causation processes causing emergent phenomena. And this can actually make, over sufficiently large timescales, based on the concrete, unchangeable mathematical laws of physics, the following things: life, life with a basic level of awareness, and life with full intelligence and self awareness and the capacity to grow.

>>1129060
I feel like a gave a pretty generalist overview of things. Death is an unknown and people have various ideas about it.
I also share the whole "mind and soul are the same thing" perspective.
It's mostly why I was so horrified by Mina's explanation of your afterlife. A ton of uncomfortable implications with the ways the gods are mucking about with people there.

>>1129060
Unlike Magic, Science is not a search for quintessential truth. Science is about determining what is impossible and calculating the improbability of what is improbable.

Truth to one person may mean something entirely different to another, thereby preventing the transmission of understanding from one school of magical thought to another. But with science? We find what is impossible for everyone, and then it is up to them to decide what they wish to do with the remainder; what may be possible for anyone.

The results speak for themselves. With a sandbox of unexplored possibility combined with a set of fundamental constraints restricting us from the contradictory, tools designed from such scientific inquiry are engineered to be usable by anyone.

But these days, we find ourselves adrift in ignorance. Starved of magic, we fall into delusions and tribes. And the worlds are getting... stupider. When one cannot scientifically disprove that a tool of science is bereft of any magic whatsoever... well. It's not looking good.

A black-clad figure zips out of a nearby tree. The same one as before.

MARY: “It’s them.”

???: “Apologies. Just a precaution.”

The masked person grabs Sam by the face and looks deeply into her eyes. She kicks them off of her, and they promptly do the same to Uberto and the rest.

UBERTO: ”Hey! At least tell us who you are if you’re going to come in here and start examining us.”

They step back and seem to consider for a moment.

MILLER: “I work for the Ministry of Memetic Philosophy. Please, call me Miller. Some well doubles of you came here earlier, hence the inspection.”

SIMONE: “Mary’s mentioned you before. It’s nice to finally meet you.”

MILLER: “A shame we couldn’t meet in kinder times. Your mentor has been cursed, and the only person I know of who can undo it is the person who cursed her.”

Miller looks at Sam again, as if expecting her to say or do something. Or, perhaps they feel compelled to look at her for some subconscious reason.

>>1129120
"That woland lady"... so I'm guessing Hella is the flaming figure after all? Her ability to teleport in and out of the Well seems pretty handy. Wish we could do that, then we could go confront her.

Ask Miller what's with the mask. (so that's what was behind the censor bar)

Could we do something to lure the perpetrator to us, rather than attempt to track down someone so ellusivea? What was Mary doing when she was accosted?

Oh right, introductions are in order.

And ask about the body parts strewn around.
