I suppose we do owe Sticks some kind of apology for being so.. "blunt" perhaps?

>>119776
Be sure to pick up your helmet. I'm pretty sure it's on this side of the gate.

It looks to me like Sticks has simply gained some weight.. but then, I have very little knowledge of actual pregnancies.
I better be subtle.

"Sticks.. Have you returned to tell me something?"
"Yep. I've been thinking a lot.. You know, I was pretty damn angry at you and your stupid ideals.. but you know what? I love you and your stupid stupid ideals, you bastard. And you know what else? I'll make you fall in love with me for real! None of that shortcut stuff. I'll make sure your heart knows no one but me!"
"H-hey! I.. M-me too!"

"Ha! Are you sure you're up for this, Iesgip?"
"Y-yes. I.. I love sir Ridder too."
"Then we shall we be rivals in love! May the best girl get the boy."

>>119805
>>119804

Ridder facepalm self.

>>119806
Facepalm Sticks and Iesgip

Sigh a big sigh an walk off into the sunset.

>>119805
uhmmm. oh wow... I told you Ridder.

>>118796
Ohhh boy.
You just can't catch a break when it comes to love, can you?
Just hope that their rivalry remains friendly.

>>119805
Man, you may have sworn off love, but goddamn if it isn't as determined to get you than ever before.

>>119805
"Now ladies, no need to fight, I don't want to fuck either flatty manhands or fatty hamhands."

I thought you were supposed to get the girl AFTER defeating the great evil, or just before the last fight, and here you already had one and now have that one and another trying to seduce you...

I have a feeling this may result in a polyamorous relationship.

>>119805
This will likely become problematic in the future, but in the meanwhile, there's nothing to do about it.

Dammit, I wanted PetalxRidder to be OTP... if the relationships were all that important to me.

I mean who the hell are we going to get Petal with?

Facepalm with your left hand. Ask the Pallies if there's anything else you can do for them and will someone please patch up my hand before I bleed to death goddamn.

People?
We have bigger problems than our sex life.

Hey Ridder.

Kittens.

>>119819
Grek.

Anyways, this relationship talk can be done later, in private. We've probably still got work to do, peasants to spear, you know.

>>119825
Maybe that bug guy...but elves and gobbos' live long so Petal is probably in no hurry to hook up?

Ask Iesgip if she brought any herbs or bandages and some water that could be used to cleanse and bandage your hand. Only say it really happily with your mouth wide open.

>>119829
This without the mouth opening part.

this is just like one of my Japanese animes

Ask for some healing. They seem content to play their little game and you have bigger concerns right now. If anything it just means they'll be more loyal, attentive, and responsive to your plans. Nothing wrong with them wanting to prove themselves.

>>119805
"I'm not a prize."

Tell them to bugger off, Ridder. One of them is an overly manly/subservient kobold, and one of them is an overly horny catfolk ("Also, he feels a hand on his leg").

Just go after Petal. I mean, damn.

>>119805
Steady now, old bean. Just because these two have sworn to make you their own doesn't mean you have to give in to their advances.

Time to remind sticks how much iesgip looks like a boy.

>>119838
Petal? truly I doubt it...

anyhow... as long as they keep it civil and don't let it interfere with work this could be quite.. "interesting" no?

Might want to tell them to not take things too far. It's not like you can prevent them from trying, but it shouldn't cause trouble to anybody.

I can't help but crack a dim smile at their most sincere efforts and feelings. Eventhough I do not agree to become some sort of prize it fills me with happiness to see that they are willing to compete yet remain friendly with eachother.
These two girls are so kind. I wish their hearts will never be broken again.

I place my hand on their handshake, easily cupping both of their hands.

"I accept your challenge, as long as it brings you happiness. At the first sign of pain caused by it I will call it off."
"Alright, alright, though it's not like you have any say in it~"

We remain like that for a moment...

...when we suddenly feel a fourth hand joining us.
The paladin stands there in awkward silence, until she finally explains her decision.

"I know I won't stand much of a chance, but.. you don't find guys like this anywhere."
"Well I can't fault you for your taste~"

..Perhaps it is not as simple as I thought it would be.

>>119851
paladin pls go

Goddamnit Ridder.

>>119851
...

OKAY, TIME OUT HERE RIDDER.

Something is seriously amiss here. You're having women falling for you right and left. Now, I'm not saying you're ugly, but you're not exactly the most handsome man in the universe. This is crazy.

I'm suspecting an outside influence. Possibly magical in origin. Maybe those rings do more than just allow transfer of thoughts? Maybe they have a subtle imbuement to boost the sexual attraction that one normally puts out?

>>119851
I tooolllld yoooouu ahahahahah...

>>119851
Wow. Muschio's right. Girls DO fall for you left and right.

>>119857
She didn't fall for his looks.

Or maybe she's a furry who wanted an excuse.

>>119855
no

>>119863
Paladin x Petal?

>>119857
I beg to differ on "you're not exactly the most handsome man in the universe."

Ladies, Ladies, please

Whos that? Initiate Manhammer?
Is a he or a she? >.>;;

>>119851
Thus Ridder starts a Harrem.

That IS the girl paladin, right?

>>119851
Dear lord, do we even know her name? She's not the same one who beat up Grey, is it?

>>119869
GO FORTH, MY HAREM ARMY!

Yeah Baby, Yeah.

It's official, Ridder leaks pheromones like a faucet.

>>119865

...what if Ridder has the Nymph's Jinx?
