Hit the deck!

Hit the deck, yeah - but can you tell where it's coming from?

Try to get both raptor kids and ant kids.

Then eat her.

ehh why not, pussy vore is go, though using the abdomen(or is it a thorax?) might be easier and it would let us start while continuing to ride dick

Eat her with your mouth. That way she'll respawn later and you'll still have a raptor to ride.

If you eat her any other way, she'll stay stuck inside you until she's reborn as an ant and not a cool raptor mount!

How are you going to be a proper knight without a mount? For that matter, how are you going to get out of here without, for example, catching a lift on someone with strong enough legs to jump? No eat. Assert dominance. You can switch it up later if you like.

I mean I doubt it will matter which "mouth" is used, we could probably get raptor babies raised up to rideable size pretty quickly given how the dungeon distorts gestation and maturation

>ask a little about her, what do cute robots do for a living? does she need to go to college or does she learn through some other means? what kind of hobbies does she have? stuff like that

"I'm currently unemployed, but I do volunteer work at Xeno Labs! I take care of the creations and help them learn, I'm somewhat of a comfort bot over there! I did go to college, due to my memory loss before arriving in this world, I had to start from scratch.. My mind and body doesn't allow any connections like that, so I had to learn the old fashion way!"

She thinks for a second before answering the last question

"I don't have any interesting hobbies... I like walking? Seeing the sights is very nice, exploring the world... It's exciting! like.. an adventure!" She smiles

"I'm unique as in there's only one of me, but I do have a family! A sister named Chip and a brother named Hisker! We all came from a program, a game I think! But we lost all our memories due to some corruption of our code, we don't remember eachother, but we came from the same program, so that makes us family!"

She beams with joy, happy at your question

"What about you? Do you have any family?"

>>1064410
Nothing exciting, fairly nuclear.
Mom, dad, sibling, a smattering of aunts, uncles, grandparents, and cousins, a pet dog, a stray cat who might as well be a pet and a potted plant that's lived long enough for there to be an attachment.

>>1064410
Edward was raised by Aunt Becky since his early teens, as his parents do medical stuff overseas. He hasn't seen them in a while since The Merge made their jobs very busy, but they stay in touch electronically.

Dad travels a lot for business, mom is a mechanic. Of your siblings, your sister works in the shop and your brother moved away for college and found a job elsewhere.

Aw fuck there's another one. Instead of speaking he instead fires what looks like a tear in space at us, a sharp sliver of pure black soaring across the sky.

Before I can cast RODEK, Riede casts PARASYS, causing the tear to still itself in midair, vibrating angrily as though it was wrestling against a chain.

The remaining space mage scowls and his wand seems to start moving in several directions at once.

>_

simple, just dodge his attack by moving in several directions at once.

If his wand's moving in several directions at once, it must be doing so from a stable fulcrum, or else his entire body would also be moving in several directions at once.

Meaning he probably can't reposition while he's doing whatever multicast thing here without fouling up... what must be a complex bit of sorcery. In other words, he stuck so toss some crap over the rift at 'em. Maybe a nulling grenade.

Stopping the scooter for a bit to drop air (/furiously try to restart the engine) to dodge may also be wise.

Swap places with the space mage while Riede moves the scooter out of the way and releases her spell

If he's an old man, ask him about what he would do to fix the broken economy of your world or something involving politics. Hopefully his old man senses will trigger and he'll stop casting his spell to lecture you younglins.

Might be good to throw something loud into the room next to the scout monster to distract it.

The elves look around the sparse hall and can't find anything loud to throw.

The Harroctar alpha emerges onto the balcony searching for prey.

They hunt via smell, tremor sense, heat sense and hearing. So if we move slowly and keep low (so the heat dissipates before rising) then that's three things it will have trouble finding us with. And everything here smells like elf anyway.

Keep low and slow, and sneak to the kitchen/dining hall.

Yep, now is our chance while it's outside.

Is Turit in a good place for us to prop him up? Maybe he can take a shot at the critter and kill it.

It takes around two hours to walk to the town center, taking stops to eat wild berries and enjoy the scenery on the way. The red of dawn has faded away entirely, leaving a solid wash of blue sky. As it's the first of Missing Sun, there's no sun visible above, nor will there be for the rest of this month. Even the sun needs its rest.

There's a bit of activity around the town center. Since it's still early in the morning, most of those up at this hour are setting up activities or conversing. Nobody you've been close with is nearby, but a few craftspeople and foreign traders look to be preparing for the day's trade. A handful of older folk are counting food for the midday feast to celebrate the turning of the month. If you came here last, you'd've loved to join in for some excellent food before you set out, but you don't have the time to wait around. There's a small class for morning exercises a bit further away from the small crowd, and a deacon is gathering water from the well for ceremonies.

All in all, it's an average day for a small religious community. Normal goods will be simple to gather as long as you have the space to carry them; you can just go gather food, clothes, basic supplies, etc. from communal stores. Exceptional things, potentially armor, weapons, or advanced manufactured goods will require a bit more effort in either trade or theft. While you're on a deadline, you still have plenty of time to look around. The question is...

What first?

See if the foreign merchant has anything interesting to sell or say

>>1060264
>If you came here last, you'd've loved to join in for some excellent food before you set out, but you don't have the time to wait around.
If you told us about that earlier, then we would’ve suggested coming here last so that you could’ve joined in for the excellent food. So that’s kinda your fault.

>what do?
Go check out the foreign traders.

>>1060264
Talk to the old folks counting the food. Maybe you can get some food to take with you on your travels? It would be better than relying on wild berries and mushrooms that might be poisonous.

>>1060377
Foreign Merchants always have the most exotic swag!

I think probably the most pressing question is "Why aren't the parents stopping us from dying, why are they just okay with us dying"

Psychologically people typically get a sunk-cost fallacy with something they've invested into a lot, for example, kids.

They spend money on food, time raising, pay rent, etc, and while some of them seem *uncomfortable* with graduation *vaguely* it seems most everyone is in on it.

That or "is everyone just a clone or getting cloned from eachother" because honestly that's where my theory is leaning, that they clone or brain transplant or something people, since you're literally jordan put in another body right?

Uh, actually, franklin, stupid question, but what's your earliest memory? like can you remember anything from before you were 7 or something, do you sort of just remember being in elementary school, or remember anything before that?

you know what I'm thinking?

Temmie, or rather Judy has probably been waiting so very long to see Jordan again, and for Franklin to remember her... I think while answering questions is important, I think it is more important to let her enjoy your company as her long lost brother in this little reunion, even if you don't remember the full details.

If it was me, I'd probably give her a hug immediatly, and tell her thanks for not breaking her promise that you would be okay while you were sick in the hospital bed, because despite dying from cancer probably you got better and are alive. Also I would assure her you won't break your promise and let her know you and your friends will come back for her near the end when she needs you guys accordingly to her fortune.

Keep in mind too that as far as questions go, Temmie can hear our questions, so you don't need to repeat what we want to ask her.

I'd guess I'd ask her if she still has that journal she was researching back then, but only if it has something to do with everything that has been going on.

Why are children comming back from death? Why looking different and to new parents?

Why didn't Jordan come back, all those years before?

I don't know what to ask you Temmie. I can only wish to free you from your curse of knowledge. No one should have to live as if life were a story already written. Enjoy meeting your brother I suppose, and may something happen that you did not anticipate.

Oh, you don't have to tell her that Franklin. She can hear us.

1. Would you rather call me Jordan or Franklin, going forward?

2. Why didn't you tell me about this earlier? Or for that matter, at all?

3. Will the cycle ever end?

Don't you DARE to cover up your MAJESTIC and GLORIOUS BODIES! What sort of GRAND TASK TAKERS would you be to buckle and break at the FEEBLE TRADITIONS of humans? You are LARGER then them! POSE WITH ALL YOUR MIGHT! SHOW these dwellers of the LAND OF MEN your BARE INTENTIONS, UNAFRAID! Maybe also get some SNACKS OF SUSTENANCE.

This human is attempting to be helpful, WE SHOULD BRING HIM WITH US SO THAT HE MAY HELP US NAVIGATE THE STRANGE HUMAN LANDS! just pick him up, he’s small.

distract them by sucking their dicks

MARTLEBY should tell the sentry that he, too, can become a CHAMPION like MARTLEBY.
If the sentry can prove his respect to the SACRED DUTY, then MARTLEBY would allow the sentry to meet the ARBOREAL SOW and become a MIGHTY CHAMPION.
If the sentry accepts, then MARTLEBY should strip the sentry naked (for GLORIOUS reasons) and let him ride on MARTLEBY's back, while providing assistance to the SACRED DUTY.

As for where to go next, BURRRT should visit the wedding - his dexterity will be necessary to evade the objects thrown at him. I'm sure one of the objects will end up being the divine relic he's looking for. MARTLEBY and FLICHARD should venture towards the CORNFLOWER STATION.

Our champions are going to get fucking shot. Maybe we're lucky and this is ENGLAND, or at least CANADA. Yeah take along the human, he can help guide the SOW's grooms in this FOREIGN REALM (and if not he'll at least be a useful HOSTAGE). Take a gander in the store first, maybe there's some LESSER ARTEFACTS or useful garbage to be had.

Time to see where that little robot will go next now that we helped it get in here.
Hopefully it wont want to change its mind and go back out like a cat would

Well, you could just wait till they get bored and leave, but that might take a while so may as well look around.

Look around ; if you see several passages save following the orb for last.

Shrink the message bus window so she cannot fit through, then boop the snoot back in.

Invite them into your partition properly. It's clear they're going to force the issue regardless, so you might as well make it official.

But make them promise to only investigate the matter at hand, you've clearly got things to do and cannot play host all day.

Grab snoot FIRMLY, guide her back in.

Hotdog her...

And invite her in the Proper Way of course :V

Kiss Eade to confuse her, then in her confusion, guide her snoot back to where it belongs.

Oh no you don't have a mouth to kiss people with! This is a disaster!

Tell Eade she can help if she wants, but only if she uses proper channels.

If neccesary, distract her long enough to close the message window.

For all you know, traveling through the message window will break things worse. If nothing else, strict sandboxing would probably make it harder to fix things quickly.

Be friendly but assertive. You have a job to do and you don't have a sufficient level to deal with sidequests.

Sorry, my mom taught me not to cooperate with strangers! Why do you want it anyway?

tell him you got the rifle situation covered and thank him for his help. That could have been really embarrassing if he hadn't help. But hey since you're both new here ask him if he can give you a quick summary of the area so you don't have to worry about getting lost. Would kind of suck to be saved from all that embarrassment only to get embarrassed by getting lost. New guys get enough hazing as it is, no need to give them more ammunition.

Oh yeah my rifle...

Well to make a long short it involves an run in with an overly curious Borealin, it's totally embarrassing for everyone involved and I would like to move on from that thank you.

>stream integration?
Is there a system already in place for that? Because if it doesn't exist, we might not be able to do anything to beyond just watching the stream vote for what the streamer should do.

Also, I feel like we'd need to literally hijack an already active stream to even try to add that and I don't think the streamer would like us hacking her systems like that.

Get a license for and play copyrighted music. Not actually.

Don't panic or try to hide anything. Don't try to force Mary back to bed. It will only worry her more.

If Mary insists on staying for the rest of the run it's probably best to acquiesce, but suggest that you stay in charge and she returns to bed afterwards.

As for a reward, the reward should be local to the hamlet. Tokens are mainly used in Citadel. Perhaps something farm related, to make it more personal from those she helped.

>>1062240
If we just tell her to go and sleep, she will just lie there in bed. Eyes wide open and imagining everything that could go wrong. I propose we just let her sleep in the control room or put a spare screen on her bed.

I agree with Mary watching. As for the reward, I suggest a slimecrown citadel branded hoodie from freshly sheared battering ram wool

And it seems like tonight you’re going to be doing a little bit of both tonight. As you (un)luckily have company tonight. The best thing about this place is that it's one of the most run down places in town, so you two quickly find open seats for yourselves with no one next to them. The barkeep has already put down your drink (Some cheap brown beer…at least you hope that’s what it is) since it’s what you order every night, while your friend (despite also knowing the menu like the back of their hand) stares at it as if he’s looking at map in a town she has never been before.
