… *deep inhale*
Inner thoughts I am losing my patience.

Sirs, with all due respect that is foolish to disregard my question. Part of establishing motive is not just determining cause. It is also establishing a psychological profile of the person in question. You are correct in determining that Happy’s goal is to oppose the Tribunal. But why is he in opposition? What is the reasoning behind his actions? With that, we can then match that to the accused to look for discrepancies and correlations. As for Ana, have you not read our file on her? She is a lynchpin in the universe. If she dies, the universe of the Ash Tree is reset to a certain point. Can you imagine what kind of power Happy would have if he had that at his finger tips?

Have you considered what the others might have considered? If they have a suspect in mind, then they should look for evidence and build a behavioral profile.

Here’s what we do know about Happy, he is someone in the organization, has access to our faculties enough to cause a power outage and he convinced one of our colleagues to join his ranks. He is also able to call spirit parasites and the mad world painting was a loose end he needed to see dead to prevent being exposed. It means that Happy had to have had access to this facility early.

With that in mind, I know Triumphant was among the first to join the tribunal, but what about the arrests of the other suspects? Where they all arrested at the same time or were they all brought in at separate times?

>Continue the therapy session
He paid, so he’s going to get his money’s worth. Henry turns to Belinda. “I’ll answer Jess at the end of the session, but I want to know what you want us to talk about first.”

“Of course, hun. I think you two are communicating very well already and you both know what the issues with your marriage are, so I don’t have to use my usual icebreakers.”

“I want icebreakers.” Henry says firmly. “Hit me with an icebreaker.”

“When you started dating, what did you two like about each other?”

Jess chimes in. “I thought he was handsome, mature, and kind. I felt safe talking to him about sex and kink, even the more extreme stuff. With modern dating you hear all kinds of horror stories about cis guys, but Henry was a proper gentleman.”

Belinda nods encouragingly and Henry tries to remember why he got married.

“I could tell Jess was really smart, smarter than me. He was funny and attractive and open about his desires. Before, I hadn’t dated anyone who was so adventurous and unfiltered and it was nice not having to guess what he was feeling–for as long as that lasted.”

“I think you still respect and care for each other.” Belinda says. “You’re also both emotionally mature, which I don’t usually see, haha. What else do you want to say?”

>Ask Jess why he’s a man
“I relate more to social expectations of being a man, I like the aesthetic, and while I don’t have a problem with presenting as a woman, I think I would always prefer to be a man since it’s more true to me as a person.” Jess explains.

Henry finds himself doubting Jess in the privacy of his mind, which makes his cognitive dissonance with being a good queer ally activate. He’s shit, he’s absolute shit.

The fox studies his face. “Does it hurt to spend time with me?”

“Sometimes, yeah.” Henry mutters. “You say cruel things without meaning to, and I can’t help but be frustrated with how easily you get to me.”

>A, divorce
No, he doesn’t want to live like this. Jess is who he is and that isn’t compatible with their marriage anymore. Belinda’s not responsible for magically feminising the fox, and even though change is hard, it’s the start of new opportunities.

He takes the offered tissue box and blows his nose. “I think I w-want the divorce.”

“Okay Henry, that’s fine, thank you for telling me.” Jess says.

Bit early perhaps its a wake up call compremise is hard when you cant communicate about a middle ground.
>After they drive home, Jess disappears into the bathroom for a makeover.
Yeah its probably not make up thats being done but will need to be done after.
So henry earns two thirds of all the money but jess would not accept a split based on income and anything else thats below% would probably result in it no longer being a no fault divorce, so living situation will jess live here as a Renter?(need to figure out the living situation but i am in no rush to have them leave, and having them here makes for a interesting story with jess seeinh hrnry rebuild his life) Feels like the house would end up in henrys hands with his income level and plans to start a family

Wait- before that, are they going to be separating or cohabitating?

Kinda hard to figure out Alimony and the mortgage split without that.

I can think of good arguments both for and against both separation and cohabitation post-divorce for both financial and emotional reasons, and I can't imagine splitting assets liabilities, establishing alimony, or forming contracts without having that established.

Oh, also, assets and liabilities aside, in -roughly present day America's- housing market, the house is an almost guaranteed high-return investment, even with the mortgage. How much do each of the parties value such speculation?

As much as I don't like it we will have to interact with this stupid looking thing and show Abdle to it. For the bird carry him and remove the leash.

How do we know it won't just swipe Abdle and dash off? Leash stays on - we'd be foolish to give a hostage a chance to escape. Just improvise crutches with wood. Forested area should have branches of approximate size and strength.

Oh wait, I just realized, if we are going to carry him on her back, will bobbie be able to leave a trail while carrying him at the same time?

Maybe Bobbie can say since his leg is broken, she'll only use one arm to support him so he doesn't harm the other leg, so that she can use her free arm to drop the pebbles.

but this is all the more reason not to use the leash, cause THEN her hands won't be free if she's using one arm to slightly support him, and has the leash on the other hand..

B) I hate this exchange.

C) I hate the cat.

D) Other suggestions.

You guys should stop hanging out with a murderer

Maybe telling him about the dreams isn't a wise idea at this time. He's already strung out on existential fear and sleep deprivation. We should probably let him get some sleep first before we drop anymore heavy shit on him.
The guy still is recovering from his wounds after all, this doesn't seem to be helping.

Try to calm him down by assuring him the czar can do nothing so long as we have the amulet and tell him to get some sleep.

Judging from Czar's actions we have witnessed, he is trying desperately to get a hold on such "traces". Pendle is on to something.



No need to despair, it seems that you still have the upper hand there.

>>1109599
Calm yourself, Pendle.
It's probably not that straightforward to get on the good side of a god.
The Seer was benign enough but that was almost entirely because of the currently dominant face of the totem was a love god. The things He was previously sounded nowhere near as reasonable and amicable. And we still saw glimpses of His previous shapes bleed through.
The Gesturer would probably be exceedingly happy if it was brought back from the brink but to think it would automatically align with or benefit its saviour is a bit naïve.
Finesse might probably know more about the nature and history of the Gesturer, seeing as she spoke the dialect of its last known name.

No clue if we have discussed this before but it feel pertinent to mention, when happens if a Totem to one of these gods is put into the monster portal?

>>1109599

... oh, damn. That changes things. Not least the possibility of the manner of conflict which would make our dispatching of those slavers look like a merciful parlor-trick.

“What about the opera?” Gabe suggests, getting a bit distracted.

“The opera? What makes you think I can act? Or sing?” Nemo replies. “Plus, I’m a wanted criminal and you want me to go on stage?”

“Yeah, but, like invisibly! The opera always needs stagehands, but when they go on stage, they have to wear these black outfits so no one notices them. You could sneak on and do stuff for them and the audience would be none the wiser!” The mouse beams at him, clearly proud of the idea.

Nemo hesitates. “Ehhhh, I don’t know. Maybe…”

Gabe waves a hand and insists, “Look its just an idea. I’ll talk to Bailey and Vivian when we get back and see what they think. They probably can’t pay much, but Viv would probably be able to protect you from any fey law stuff .”

“Eh I have money saved up. Its mostly just something to do.” Nemo shrugs.

Are you two even looking?

The lead-tinged voice echoes in their heads and the pair look around in surprise.

“Wha? Oh, ‘sup Big O?” Gabe says.

Do not call me that. Do not use my name either. Ometra’s telepathy seethes at them like hot metal in a frozen pond.

“Alright, O-Face it is.”

I am looking forward to seeing Argus pummel you comes the reply.

>>1109615
Clearly Ometra should be called Operator.

>>1109615
Technically you shouldn't be saying Argus either, the only person here will CERTAINLY be a wrestling champion, if not before we arrived then DEFINETLY after.
Our plan is many things but Subtle is not one of them, that is kinda the point. Besides... there is only one RIGHT way to get that shield

We're supposed to be looking for the person who has Ometra's head. Apparently, they're an agent of the court; whoever was sent in Ometra's place. Unfortunately I don't think we can spot them from a distance so we need to go wander around and mingle/eavesdrop.

Kick yourself for somehow missing that second person- At least you got some much needed sleep, and considering the fact that you aren't dead the mystery girl can't be all that bad, at least.

...
Shit... You should probably apologize to Eiko. You were in a pretty weird headspace last night and effectively gave her an invitation to partner up both during and after this current escapade...
Why?
And then you went and cocked it up to boot.
...
Well, anyway... You should at least *try* to be personable so you don't look too insane.

Think. What kind of 'friends' would Eiko have?

Well the other party must have seen you on the couch, and you aren't dead soooo all's good I suppose.

There'd better be an egg for you too.

You didn't get blood on the couch, right?

Oh shit! you didn't leave a blood scent trail from a freshly murdered gang member straight to here, right?

Oh wait.
Yeah.
The booty call.
The other voice must be Eiko's most recent squeeze, you almost forgot...
...
You know there's an opportunity to just walk into the kitchen with a classic 200X "Gaayeeeeeeeee!"

>>1109475

Yeah was an intense interaction, make sure that everything is alight.

Well, you need to talk to Vi.al for. So Many Things. You need to talk to him about your Flocklet that is verging on a vatling, about your system being open, about wanting to fly (you are NOT jealous at Su.ki.fu you refuse to be jealous), about My.a and breaking cycles, possibly about why your behaviour is so similar to his.
...by Monarch you need to half a Feeling Talk TWO

Apologize. You want them to apologize. It's far too late for apologies, but if Lord Vi.al haven't apologized to My.a yet, that's one more thing the insane Lord can hold over them. My.a certainly won't allow them to apologize, so this is pretty much a long term at the moment of the climactic battle goal.

Incidentally Nu.ya.si is going to be a problem not for their dangerous abilities or their irritating nature, but they're trying to do things on their own, by themselves, without any help. Actively blocking attempts to help. You need to convince them that they cannot handle everything alone, and must sometimes rely on their allies, or they'll break at the worst moment, and the problem they didn't tell you about will rise up and ruin everything.

Alternatively you should never depend on them for anything because you don't know when they'll break.

If it helps keep the thoughts of Illegal Construct Reproduction contained, consider this line of thought: Lord Vi.al did scans of Li.ni.si and knows a lot about her and the other three constructs. There's a high likelihood he already knows she's looking into construct reproduction and has either implicitly okayed it through inaction or has deemed it to be not a risk worth acting upon. Actively bringing it to Lord Vi.al's attention, especially somewhere where there might be eavesdroppers, carries a risk of obligating them to actually do something about it. In essence, if other the lords don't know that Vi.al knows what Li.ni.si is researching, then Vi.al doesn't have to do anything.

As for prioritisation... Vi.al is time sensitive, and Palestripe is a security risk so, those two. Hopefully Lightgreen is not present for just mundane reasons and your own personal security can hopefully be sorted before you go to sleep again.

>>1109568
>Getting My.a and Vi.al to start talking again, even if on bad terms, is something that could benefit the galaxy. It's kindof huge.

Strategically sound on a grand scale. Even tiny reconciliation would be a very positive change.

>>1109521
Send Li.ni.si to check on Lightgreen, health and safety is her job.

Send Nu.ya.si your diagnostics so he can figure out why you're wide open, data is his job.

The other two are already doing their jobs, which is great.

First, establish a meeting between Palestripe and Vi.al. We have air to clear with Palestripe on how Shapeless society works, and an alliance to discuss. After that's done we can talk to Vi.al about the My.a situation.

Oh, a new TV antenna would be nice, yes.

"I don't just want a reward. I [b]need[/i] a reward.
My life was already going down the toilet, but stepping up has knocked me five feet under. My husband has gone insane. My house is likely firewood. And most importantly, multiple sick cults with an obsession for your daughter know who I am and how I kicked their asses. If I walk out of this house I am a dead deer.
And Gretchen will never forgive you if you sentence us yourself."

"Can't someone just help a poor sick girl out of a hostage situation out of the kindness of her heart? Oh, yeah, and speaking of which..."

Oragat chooses javelins
Herocea's size is her best weapon, she can throw far and stab enemies crawling about her feat, the javelin plays to that versatility.

most importantly they can be used to pin instead of simply kill, the Armorer means to impress The Duchess but that can't be done with too many corpse adding to the armies of her enemies.
Survivors and prisoners are inconvenient but also a requirement, Oragatt understands but she still doesn't like it.

The weapons and armor are well received as sturdy, after finishing her examination the giant nods "Herocea can make use of payment" of course the giant can't truly appreciate the craftmanship.
"Herocea is ready to fight, Give orders and will follow." her voice bellows.

Oragatt considers her next step.
does it matter the location of the ambush? perhaps the time? should any other preparations be made?

Location matters, and night is usually best for an ambush. Now is the time to go scouting ambush sites.

Consult with Herocea. She knows her combat prowess best; she can identify the right situation where she can take advantage of her height and durability.

You opt to just harass the enemy mech and keep it on the backfoot, it's working, the timer clicks down.

The mech ceases movement, slumping over somewhat. The simulation is over, you hear the sound of a technician in your ears.

So what did you think of the new machine? Pretty great huh?

To be honest, it didn't seem that different. Guess it's the kind of nuance only a tech expert like yourself would pick up on.

You just came out of a near-blinding Fog, I think that's a good excuse.

You adjourn to the previous room to plot.
"We aren't going to find anything if we don't get past these spiders. Sorrel, can you wager how many?"

"Not," she frowns "not sure. They're still around a corner so the echoes aren't clear. By the steps it might be three. But they're close, we'll only have a minute to set an ambush."

You consider where best to place your companions.
-{you have your long knife and chain knife}-
-{Lisel has her acid thrower and various chemical vials}-
-{Sorrel has a needlespear}-
-{Kh'khechil has four bug arms and a thick shell}-
-{there is one flashbang and a ragdoll}-

>>1109200
Silksong NEVER
>>1109202
Sorrel in front with the needlespear to jab them from the side of the hole.
Lisel behind Sorrel with the sprayer.
Yourself in the corner across from the hole to distract from Sorrel. Toss the flashbang, with a warning to your companions, once the first one comes through.
Kh'khechil forming the third point of a triangle between you to lock down any spiders that get past you.

Killing them one at a time is optimal, therefore once the first spider comes through you should try to keep the fight close to the door and retreat to the next door if more than one spider gets through.
I think applying acid at the start of the battle is a good idea; especially if the acid spray is applied when the spiders are still in the other room. Like, flashbang them, then hose them down, then plug your door up with beetle bulk and pointy bits so they can't come through to swarm you. If they don't immediately lose morale and run from being sprayed by acid, you can let it do its work while they try to figure out how to get past your killbox.

>>1109268

Agree with this suggestion

I agree that Lisel needs to open the fight with the acid. We want to make sure that everyone else is clear of the spray. Plugging the hole with the bug seems like a good idea, but I can't help but feel like Sorrel's reach with the spear could be advantageous, as well. The spiders' legs might be long enough to cancel that advantage out, though; bug grapple the spiders and Sorrel stab them?

Will the flashbang be super effective because the spiders are used to operating the the darkness, so the bright light will be stunning, or ineffective because they're used to operating in the dark, anyway, so being unable to see isn't anything special?

Despite all of the steps you’d taken to avoid it, one of the least acceptable situations had arisen anyways. This had turned into a Head-to-head confrontation.

You’d lost the element of surprise, and your preparations had only amounted to weakening him. For all the damage you’d done, the farmer still stands, towering above you and radiating an overwhelming sense of rage. Your heart threatened to give out under the weight of it.

Before, he had just been reacting to what you were throwing at him. You’d left him no time to think, forcing him to rely on his base instincts. That made his responses sloppy and less-effective. The next action he takes, however, will be an Active choice.

You get the feeling that what happens next will decide everything. The actions you, Roger, Enid, and Sheppard all take will determine how this situation ends. One final round of choices, and some amount of Luck will determine your ending.

Who will Sheppard direct his attention towards? Who will still be standing at the resolution of this situation? And between the lot of you, who will take a life?

In a moment, you would have your answers…

[ SPECIAL COMBAT ROUND ]

Due to the danger of the situation, the Spirits have been granted special permissions to Suggest actions for Roger and Clive simultaneously. Suggested actions for each child will be tallied separately to one another.

Well, I do have one plan, not sure if we should or not because the issue is Roger's willingness to actually go through with it... But maybe even if he can't, just having it might be enough... but this is a desperate situation right now, and desperate times calls for desperate measures.

Clive will need to get Sheppherd's attention on him. I was thinking Clive can throw his cane at Sheppherd to get his attention on him. If it can do some damage, even slight, great. But this is more of a distraction to get his attention on Clive. Hopefully this won't break Albert's cane.

After that, Clive has to immediately hide behind the barrels in the shelves. He should also grab Enid's arm and get her behind the barrels too in case he goes for her instead. Sheppherd will no doubt want to grab the knife, and use that against Clive and Enid, so if we can get back behind the barrels, Sheppherd will have to take some time to try to dig and reach them.

Roger however will have to do something he really doesn't want to do. seeing as he is the fastest, he needs to quickly grab the shotgun and shoot at Shepherd.

The only issue with the plan is that Roger has shown multiple times to not want to kill Shepherd. Unless this dire situation and desperation to save Enid and Clive wins and gives him the will to shoot, he's very likely is going to hesitate. If he can't find the will to shoot, he can at least threaten to in order to scare Shepherd enough to stop. Perhaps Roger is willing with Enid's Coercive ability???

alternative plan: Roger distracts Sheppherd, and then runs into a locker, shutting it behind him. Shepherd will have to take some time to open the locker to get to Roger, but that might give Clive some time to grab the gun and shoot (he's more willing) Problem is I'm not sure how Roger can make himself the target to distract Sheppherd.

Here’s what we know:

- Enid’s knife is behind Sheppard, or at least close to him.
- Sheppard’s shotgun is close to him.
- Sheppard’s flashlight is close to him.
- Roger never dropped his own flashlight, so he has aflashlight.
- Sheppard is more than likely to severely wound whoever he goes after this round.
- Sheppard is pissed, but has time to consider his next action.


As Enid is disarmed, she will either go after her knife or the shotgun. Not to use the shotgun- she won’t know how, and it’s too unwieldy for her to use anyway. But she has the lowest FEAR and is probably thinking rationally.

I suspect Enid will go for one of those two items, so let’s not risk our actions conflicting with hers. So Roger and Clive should choose actions independent of those two items.

Roger’s wrist is smarting, and he is reluctant to kill. He is still best as bait. Use the flashlight to try and blind Sheppard, while Clive and Enid work.

Clive has the cane, and is the best to try and go for Sheppard’s knees or groin. Aim low.

Ok. So here's my suggestions.
Clive should use the cane and aim high at Sheppards face, Forcing him to use his one good arm to defend himself and being a good distraction.
Rodger should use this distraction and go for the gun and use it against Sheppard.
A part of me wants Enid to go for the knife but that seems like a good way for her to get kicked in the face and hurt. So I dunno. Does she have anything to throw at him?

>>1109206
>>1109286
If it was before Sheppard held a death-grip on Rodgers wrist then I'd agree that he'd hesitate. But given that Sheppard very nearly killed him then I'd say Rodger recognizes what NEEDS to happen to prevent what almost happened to him from happening to someone else. This is arguably the best time for Rodger to make this choice.

Considering that Roger is unarmed, as well as a more suitable size for handling it, I think it's best he goes for the shotgun.

Since Sheppard is only working with one arm, I think it'd be better for Clive to attack him from two directions- for example, a punch from the side where Sheppard's arm is good, and a swing from the cane on the side of the bad arm- potentially either towards the head, or hook and pull on the arm.

One last thing that I think can be factored into our last moment to do something is Bec.

If we have Clive shout "Crowbar, now!" - sure, Sheppard's right there, he's gonna hear, but regardless of whether or not Bec follows up (by jumping and swinging, or otherwise throwing the crowbar?) there's a chance he'll be focused on that and not the knife or the shotgun.

There will likely be grumblings about not sticking to the plan, but it's come down to the wire, so there's not really any room for those considerations anymore.

sadly, stealing a gift for an angel, though Deeply funny, is a bad idea.
Oh how countless Forms can be, perhaps something generally spiny, but not quite sharp. The idea of danger, but not Dangerous

Wait how does The Unwanted have a liege/spouse/owner, wouldn't that mean someone wants them?

Oh I get it, your appearance reflects your mental state. If you're upset your beauty leans towards monstrous and lean.

>change?
Hmm, well, I'm partial to scales.

>how to get it
Well, they're going to want to use it openly. If you stole it, then whoever you stole it from would easily find out where it went and try to get it back, which isn't a great result. Seems like you have to buy it or trade for it.

>>1104483
Effort is key.
Angels, being all soppy and junk, really believe that thing about the effort you put in to doing something. Maybe seeing that is one of their weird powers.

So, boss, the harder you work the better.
We need a horn then.
Which is ironic as we normally give people the horn, not find them.
Can we find a demon with a big head and horns and just uh, arrange a donation .
Oh!
Hang on. What about a woven reed horn.
If you get the reeds from the edge of the river lethe and gilter out all the forgetfulness magic, there might be some residual mana to tap for the enchantment.

Hang on do you know any other angels? Or at least know of any who would be willing to talk/trade with you? Cause the item your thinking or sounds more like a divine/blessing type thing than a demon type thing. Alternatively are there other powers you could reach out to? Are fae a thing in your reality?

Well, I'd like to see you swell with sexual fluids until the pressure causes you to orgasm, and do it again and again for the rest of the quest.

>What to get
Rather than an actual horn of plenty (gods get kind of pissed if you create an infinite exploit that takes power from their domain and gives mortals basic universal welfare), you could come up with a pair of magic items. A wastebasket that digests anything you put into it, which gets connected to hydroponics mini-farm that re-grows that same item in a smaller form. So, if you throw a chocolate cake in the bin, the bin eats it, keeps some energy for itself and the farm, and then creates a small clone of the chocolate cake.
This way, you don't have to worry about delivering future gifts! You can just give Havel a present via magic teleporter and it'll even be in fun size!

I figured being in a pharmacy, a prescription was appropriate.
