I am a 29 year old male. I am an ezilot, so I've got fur, a tail, and a mane, which are all nearly fireproof. Along with normal color, I see in infrared, so I can tell how hot something is. I am light bronze in color, and thankfully less shiny.

Oh. And I am a blood mage.

It is 9:34 AM. I'm starting to get hungry and I'm so bored and restless I could cry.

So what's my name again?

Sounds like you didn't really mind getting 'raped' that much.

It sounds like you don't really have sexual urges though? That's too bad. Though, I guess if you say it's a viable way to relax, you could suggest that to Fizz. Try not to be too blunt, though.

>>118304
Unless she did before returning, Fizz has not eaten. I am still not hungry.

>>118313
I did not think very much about it, I left soon after and healed the claw marks I'd taken.

I do have sexual urges, they are very common. I can suppress them, however, and usually do, especially if I am engaged in something.

Sex is a viable way to relax, especially emotionally. I could suggest having sex to Fizz I suppose, but I am not sure of why.

Sex could boost her confidence.

>>118325
You need some fun in your life; and with your abilities, Fizz would have a pretty good time.

But if you're too squeamish about it I guess it can wait until tomorrow, after Fizz gets a job. Don't treat it as a possibility, treat it like a fact.
>>
No. 118332 ID: c0f3bf

>>118326
Boosting confidence by raising self esteem? That could help, but I am already planning on giving her a placebo, I am not sure if it would help further, and I do not think her confidence is that bad to require so much stabilization.

>>118329
I am not squeamish about sex, it is just not something that should be an issue for me. I may have little to do, but sexual stimulation is not something that I require.

Okay, maybe later.

You were able to manipulate temperature before, can you like... light your hands on fire? Or make them so cold you can freeze something via touch?
>>
No. 118334 ID: c0f3bf

>>118333
That... is an interesting idea, and not something I have tried before. I can raise my body temperature and lower it, but raising it too high or too low will start to make it more difficult. I think I may be able to reach those points with enough practice, however.

Fizz gets up.

"So are you done messing with me? I'm pretty hungry."

Did I forget to do anything?
>>
No. 118337 ID: 632862

>>118334
Hey, you mentioned once you can make people nauseous from a distance. Can you try to practice some kind of manipulation like that? Um, not the nausea. That would be a bad idea right before she's going to cook. Although I guess you could reverse that, too.

What's the easiest thing you can do, aside from making someone nauseous? Try to do that, starting as close as possible that you can get without touching, and trying to gradually increase the distance.
>>
No. 118339 ID: c0f3bf

>>118337
The easiest would be nausea, the second easiest I think would be numbness.

"One last thing..."

I touch her back with my finger and numb it. She almost falls over, but manages to catch herself. I slowly back away, but as soon as my finger lifts off her back I feel pain. It is not very much, but I can no longer tell what I am doing to her.
>>
No. 118340 ID: 632862

>>118339
Hm. Really? Well, you could get Fizz to tell you what she's feeling so you can try to figure out how to do it better... Or you could try the easiest visual change possible, like changing the color of her fur or making it grow or something.
>>
No. 118860 ID: 135d9a

>>118339
Yeah I'd say you're gonna need to ask her to describe it, if you can't feel it yourself.

"Do you... feel anything?"

"Um... no? Are you... okay? You look like you're trying to juice a mango by hand."

"I'm... fine..."

This is starting to hurt a little.

>>118340
I try to change the color of her fur, then I try to grow it out. Neither work, or at least I cannot see the difference.

"Are you... finished? I'm starting to get a little hungry, and stuffed artichokes take a while to prepare."
>>
No. 119218 ID: 135d9a

>>119208
Alright, magic from a distance appears to be a no-go.

Uh, do you feel like helping her cook again? Otherwise I can't think of much for you to do at the moment.
>>
No. 119349 ID: c0f3bf

>>119218
"...Yes, I am finished."

"Okay, great."

She starts to walk back out of the room towards the kitchen. I suppose I could ask if she wants help cooking, though I could also research more about demons, read Hattatran, something else, take a shower, or see if Fizz or her friend have any other interesting books I could read.

Ask Fizz if she wants help cooking again.

No. 119352 ID: 135d9a

>>119349
Well uh when you put it that way.

Just out of curiosity, which of those half-dozen things are you actually interested in doing? Y'know, since, well, you're the one who's actually going to do whatever it is that you decide to do.

I guess you could read more Hattatran; you seemed interested in that last time this came up.

Examine the bomb fragment. Try touching it.
>>
No. 119366 ID: 632862

Oh, and check the entries for Vessel and Possession to see if they can access the host's memories. The goblin was giving detailed information about the curelian... wait, was it correct information?
>>
No. 119370 ID: c0f3bf

>>119352
Truthfully, any of them would be fine with me. I do not have much preference with those particular options. Maybe not cooking though, the last time was... exhausting.

>>119351
...I walk into the kitchen door frame and call out.

"Do you need any help?"

"Nope!"

She looks hard at work already.

>>119363
I empty my pouch out and look at the metal piece. It looks the same as before, dull metal glowing with symbols. Is there any particular way I should touch it?

>>119366
The information about the curelian was correct, though I did not notice his eye. I open the demon book and--...

This book was written almost 12 years ago.

Try licking the shard.

Gaddangit, we'll need to get a more recent edition tomorrow and double-check everything. We wasted a lot of time.

Touch the edge of the fragment.
>>
No. 119373 ID: c0f3bf

>>119372
Yes, I should have checked that before. I do not know how much information could be gained in 12 years, demon summoning is very rare and difficult to perform.

I touch the edge of the fragment. Nothing appears to happen.

>>119371
I lick around the edges. The fragment tastes like iron.
>>
No. 119374 ID: 34470e

>>119373
Hm... Get a piece of paper, crumple it up, and drop it so it touches the symbols.
>>
No. 119375 ID: 632862

>>119373
Touch the symbol.
>>
No. 119377 ID: c0f3bf

>>119375
I put a finger on one of the circle symbols and drag it towards the other one.

My vision goes black for a second.

There is a filing cabinet next to me. On the wall are... police uniforms and handcuffs. I am in a police station! I do not know where it is, but I need to get out of here fast. There is currently nobody around, but I can hear footsteps. Should I try touching the symbol again?
>>
No. 119379 ID: 632862

>>119377
Yes, in the other direction.
>>
No. 119380 ID: 6834bc

Yes, but touch the circles in reverse.
Pray to whatever deity you believe in that this works and nobody saw you.
>>
No. 119383 ID: c0f3bf

>>119380
I do not believe in deities.

>>119379
I put my finger on the other circle and drag it back towards the original one.

"HE--!"

My vision blacks.

I am in Fizz's bathroom. ...There is a lot of adrenaline going through me right now.
>>
No. 119393 ID: 632862

>>119383
You don't believe in deities? I take it that though demons, souls, and magic exist, miracles are few and far between?

Find a map of the city and figure out where you are in relation to the nearest police station. Also, ask Fizz if she noticed anything weird just now.
>>
No. 119410 ID: 135d9a

>>119383
Right, uh, careful with that thing, evidently.

And, uh, yeah, see if you can get a map to figure out where you went just now.

>>119410
Y-yes, I do not want to accidentally brush this. I put it in my hand and seize up my muscles.

>>119393
Demons exist, but very rarely appear in the world. I believe it has something to do with the nature of their existence. I remember a balloon simile, but that is about it. I know very little about souls.

I slow down the adrenaline and calm my systems. Once I am sufficiently calm, I step out and find Fizz in the kitchen.

"Did you notice anything just now?"

"Huh? N-no, did something happen?"

If a specific cue signaled the teleportation, it seems it was too localized for Fizz to notice.

"...Nothing, nevermind. Do you have any local maps?"

"Well I have an atlas, but not anything local. My roommate might though, I'll go check, hold on."

Fizz changes something on the hotbox faster than I can notice and walks out into the bedroom.

.

. .

. . .

Fizz comes out with a ratty, torn map and hands it to me.

"Hope it's not too ill-llegible, it looks like it's seen some use."

The map does not appear useless.

"...Hey, what's that you're holding?"

She must have seen the fragment.
>>
No. 120470 ID: 135d9a

>>120450
Well, uh, do you feel comfortable explaining to Fizz what you accidentally did? If you don't, I'm no good at cover stories.

And get a look at the map (when you get the chance, obviously).

May as well tell her that you found it in the trash in the alley and you're not sure what it is.

I can tell her what it is without saying that I used it.

>>120508
"I found it outside the restaurant when I was looking around. I am not sure what it does, but it appears to be enchanted, so do not touch the symbols."

"Oh, alright. You t-think it has anything to do w-with the expl-losion?"

>>120470
I open the map. It looks incredibly worn, I do not know how old it is. It shows the basic layout, however, and I can see that the nearest police station is still about three miles from here.

No. 120854 ID: 135d9a

>>120847
Uh, we're basically just killing time right now, right?

Uhm.

Make small talk? I don't know exactly what you should be doing.
>>
No. 120863 ID: c0f3bf

>>120854
I suppose I am.

"Possibly, I do not know."

"Oh... okay."

"...Fizz?"

"Ah, y-yes?"

"How do you feel?"

"F-feel? I feel fine... Why, did you do something? Is something wrong?"

"No, I am just... curious."

"Oh... well I'm alright, thanks. How are you?"

"The same as always."

"That's n-nice to hear, I guess. I need to go back to cooking, the artichokes could burn."

"Fine."

Fizz walks back into the kitchen to cook. I pick up the Hattatran book and lean against a wall to read it. It does not take long for Fizz to return with food.

She pours herself some tea and starts munching. I look at her over the book while she eats and take stock of her deviations. Her head is squashed in comparison to an average kobold, though her large eyes and average-sized nose hide it. Her ears are long, as is her tail, though her fingers are closer to average in length and width. She is very tall for a kobold, reaching a little ways past my stomach drawn to my full height. Aside from the scar on her back, I cannot see any particular markings.

She finally finishes eating and goes to take a shower. While she is in there, is there anything I should do to make use of her absence?
>>
No. 120874 ID: 609e90

>>120863
It sounds like, when you're looking at her, you're taking stock of her anatomical features, but missing the big picture. Have you ever heard the saying, 'the whole is more than the sum of its parts'? It seems to me that, as a blood mage, you're aware of biology in a much more intimate manner than most people, but if everything is intimate than what is there to be special?

When you look at Fizz, just look at her without analyzing or examining or comprehending, what do you feel? What do you think? And I'm not asking for an examination of the neurotransmitters behind biological processes, either. Just... how do you feel about Fizz?

Once you've figured that out we can go about determining a goal for you. Letting us know would help us advise you better.
>>
No. 120877 ID: 135d9a

>>120874
How do you feel about her? You've sort of spelled out for us that you've largely avoided extended contact with any one person. As you put it, you don't really have friends.
>>
No. 121570 ID: 632862

>>120863
Hey Ram, you can alter anatomy a whole lot right? Can you change the gender of a person? How far can you go with that change? Even so far as changing their brain structure and chemistry?

What about other body changes? Can you for instance change the species of a person, or add on stuff like horns and extra ears?

You could disguise yourself this way, if you wanted to give the bomb fragment to the police without them knowing who you are.
>>
No. 121692 ID: c0f3bf

>>120874
When I see a person, I analyze them, examine them, and comprehend them. I just do. I do not think I can stop myself, it is simply obvious.

>>120877
Fizz seems to be empathic and courageous, playful, thoughtful, yet simple, and a little naive for allowing a blood mage to stay with her, even one that shielded her from shrapnel.

I tried to detach myself from people a long time ago.

>>121570
I could change someone's sex, but not their gender, and it would be painful. Other bodily changes are possible, but would be more difficult. Changing species would be possible, but depending on the transitions it could be very painful. I think I could grow additions, but I thought I was going to mail them the fragment anonymously?
>>
No. 121696 ID: 135d9a

>>121692
Hm.

So we still haven't really come up with anything for you to do, have we.

... I guess I'm not very good at this.
>>
No. 121704 ID: 632862

>>121692
It was just a thought. They may want to take you in to ask more questions anyway, even if your story is good enough. Let's just go with the letter idea.
>>
No. 121716 ID: 632862

ARGH we keep forgetting to ask Fizz about her co-workers.
>>
No. 121725 ID: c0f3bf

>>121696
I do not have very many things that occupy my time. I do not play an instrument, and physical exercise is pointless for me. I can hunt, but it takes a while to get to the proper areas. I do like reading, but it is difficult to find good books.

>>121704
I will send a letter tomorrow, I am not eager to be in a police station again.

>>121716
That would be a good thing to know about. I go to the door of the bathroom and call out over the sound of running water.

"Fizz?"

"Yes?"

"What about your co-workers?"

"W-well it was a small restaurant for the space it had, I only worked there for a little bit. I never got to meet the chefs, b-but there were two more waiter, and the owner would come by sometimes."

"I see."

"Both of the waiters called in sick that day though! I had to carry all the orders myself!"

That explains why she was carrying so many sausages. Can I sleep now? I cannot think of anything else to do, and I do not feel like reading again.
>>
No. 121726 ID: 632862

>>121725
Ask her about the elf hostess. She didn't mention her at all.
>>
No. 121727 ID: 697b23

>>121725
I think your problem is that you lack ambition. You need a goal, an objective.

But we can always come up with one later. Might as well sleep for now.
>>
No. 121728 ID: c0f3bf

>>121726
"What about the hostess?"

"Oh, she was temporary actually, one of the waiters filled the role, but they were sick. She refused to help me carry food though, even when she didn't have anything else to do!"

"I see."

>>121727
I cannot become a strong figure in any area I can think of offhand. Ambition is something that I have not generally seen as a good thing for me to have.

"I am going to sleep now."

"Oh, goodnight!"

"Did you want to sleep in the bed again?"

"Ah, s-sure, okay."

I walk back and get into the bed.

...

A while later, Fizz climbs in as well.

"G-goodnight."
>>
No. 121729 ID: 632862

>>121728
Wait, isn't Fizz afraid to get another nightmare? It might not be a good idea to have her sleeping in the bed again.
>>
No. 121734 ID: 697b23

>>121729
Hmm, yeah... is there anything you can do to assure she gets a good night's rest? Maybe a barely noticeable full body massage again to make sure she drifts off into a deep and sound sleep?
>>
No. 121738 ID: c0f3bf

>>121729
"Are you going to have another nightmare?"

She shakes her head.

"No, I'll b-be okay, I can handle s-some bad d-dreams."

I think she is just trying to appear fearless.

>>121734
I can do that. I touch her nose and put her to sleep.

"Good night."
