Oh jeez. At least try to stand in the way of Maurine, and try to push her further under the table.

Then just say yeah. Snacks.

Try to convince mom that she is dreaming.

Just say you dropped something under the table, and push in further, and then yank Naurine in with you. , I don't think she can tell you all are naked

>>589499
Protip: if you don't fit under the table, you might be better off with your head sticking out than your naked butt.

>>589500
Completely nonplussed, she is.

Just awkwardly agree that you were out for snacks and hope you get rid of her quick. Then pull a strategic retreat and get those supplies back to base.

Awkwardly say "yes" while quickly backing out from under the table, back to Mom. Then pick up the vase on the table with one hand so you can pull the tablecloth out with the other, then hold it up so Maurine can stand up without Mom seeing her and wrap it around her. Hopefully that'll keep Maurine from having a panic attack or something from being seen naked and she can get back upstairs with the snacks.

If you feel embarrassment at being seen naked by your Mom, then keep Maurine between you and her on the way back. And just say "a dare" to Mom as you pass by; That'll pretty much tell her why you three are making a naked snack run.

Odds are competing has left your Mom with few to no hang-ups about nudity.

Make sure Maurine isn't panicking too much. Being crammed up right next to her would be a bad time for panicked power usage. Especially when those powers involve ice and sharp things.

Uh... I’m pretty sure she sees us.

>Try to convince mom that she is dreaming.

Yeah, like stuff like that ever works in real life!

>Protip: if you don't fit under the table, you might be better off with your head sticking out than your naked butt.

Hey, I could totally fit under the table! I just couldn’t get under in time holding these cups and stuff! Jeez!

>Completely nonplussed, she is.

>Odds are competing has left your Mom with few to no hang-ups about nudity.

I dunno. I kinda thought she’d just always been kinda like that. Battling all the time probably didn’t help it at all though. Um, I gotta get out of here before she says anything too embarrassing.

>Make sure Maurine isn't panicking too much. Being crammed up right next to her would be a bad time for panicked power usage. Especially when those powers involve ice and sharp things.

Oh jeez, I didn’t even think of that! I’ve gotta calm Maurine down ASAP.

Maurine just kinda froze up with her butt up in the air and she’s shaking and muttering to herself more. Uh, Um. I gotta stop staring! Jeez! W-who am I? Abbey?

I slowly back myself out from under the table and keep my back to Mom. Ow it’s bright. I guess she flipped the lights on.

ARIA: U-um... yeah. It... it’s a dare.

MOM: Yeah, I know! Lemme guess, you all started playing some party games and now everybody’s naked because of some crazy raunchy shenanigans with dares and stripping, and now you’re all doing it ‘cause one of you’s all skittery about it, right? You shoulda seen some of the shit I got up to when I was your age! Hell, your mom and I met kinda like this!

Uh, Mom, I don’t even. What?

I put down my the bowls and stuff on the floor for a second and pick up the vase. I start tugging at the tablecloth.

ARIA: I... yyeaahh... ummm... I’m gonna just borrow this for Maurine so she doesn’t just... like... die okay...?

MOM: Awww, that’s sweet! Yeah, sure. I’ll cover for ya if Belinda notices its missing!

I tug it off real quick and hold it open.

ARIA: Uh... Maurine...? You can get up if you want.

She whimpers a little and wiggles out from under the table and stands up. Jeez, she looks like she might cry.

ARIA: Um. I can wrap you in this if you want...

Maurine turns around and I throw it over her. It’s way too big and it kinda drags on the floor, but when she turns around she looks a lot better. She’s still blushing really really hard but she looks at me with her wide pink eyes and smiles.

MAURINE: ...Th-th-thanks...

She looks behind me, shocked.

MAURINE: L-L-Lina!?

MOM: So anyways, I’m here for some snacks. Since you’re down here anyway, could you kids stick around long enough to get the cereal and some bowls out of the cabinet for me, so I don’t have to bother with the stupid-ass stool? Maybe grab a chair too while you’re at it? Oh, and you gotta gimme some of those snacks.

ABBEY: ...Hey Aria... did I ever tell you your Mom was a total MILF...?

MOM WHY.

...no you didn't. And I'm glad you didn't.
>Hey Aria... did I ever tell you your Mom was a total MILF...?
Because that's not the kind of thing you tell people!

Just for that, you get to go climbing for the cereal and bowls.

>>589882
I think it's time for a "Moooooooooom!"

Get her the stuff quick-like so you can get Abbey away from your mother.

Ask Mom if she can keep this dare you all attempted a secret from your other mother.

>>589882
Unfortunately the 'no nudity hangup' seems to work both ways.

Still, she seems to understand what's going on and isn't mad about it. That's almost as good as not being spotted at all.

Hey, it could've gone way worse! The worst that'll happen is probably an air of awkwardness for a little while from this whole affair, which was to be expected anyway.

Gotta agree with Abbey, your mother has a very healthy, strong fit body, doing quite well for herself it seems!

Anyways avert eyes, since I don't think you want to view your mothers nudity for long you might wanna just grab what she asks for quickly.

Not you guys too! This is my mom we’re talking about!

>Anyways avert eyes, since I don't think you want to view your mothers nudity for long you might wanna just grab what she asks for quickly.

Yeah, let’s get out of here ASAP.

MOM: Heheheh, still got it!

>I think it's time for a "Moooooooooom!"

ARIA: Moooooooooom!

MOM: Hey, I’m wearing more than you are! I’m just down here for a snack, anyways.

>...no you didn't. And I'm glad you didn't.
>Because that's not the kind of thing you tell people!
>Just for that, you get to go climbing for the cereal and bowls.

I scoop back up the bowls and cups, hide behind Maurine, and look at Abbey.

ARIA: Abbey, you never told me that ‘cause that’s not something you tell people! Jeez! Just for that, you’re getting the cereal and bowls and stuff now!

ABBEY: But you can actually reach it! And anyway, she totally is.

Mom gives a hearty laugh and turns to Abbey.

MOM: C’mon, be a good sport, Abbey! Climb up and get’em!

ABBEY: Ugh, fiiiine.

She puts down the snacks and starts trying to flop onto the counter. Mom opens the fridge and reaches for the milk.

MOM: So yeah, Belinda and I met kinda like this! Years and years and years ago, when I was a little older than you, Rosa invited me and a couple of friends to hang out at her place to celebrate a bunch us beating up Horace and getting his badge. You wouldn’t know about that guy. He retired awhile ago.

Oh jeez why is she telling me this. She pulls out the milk and puts it on the table, then pulls over a chair from the corner of the room and sits down. Abbey gets on the counter and grabs the cereal and bowls and hops down with a squish.

MOM: So anyway, Rosa invited Belinda too ‘cause she beat him the same day. When I saw her make a chair into cookies for us I was like “I gotta tap that”, or at least get a really good look at that bod of hers. So Seth and I talked everybody into stri-

ARIA: Oh king why are we talking about this. Mom, we don’t wanna hear about that!

Abbey grabs a spoon out of the drawer and hands everything off to her. Mom pours herself a bowl of cereal.

ABBEY: I do!

NOPE NOT DOING THIS.

ARIA: Okay, we got the stuff! Let’s go upstairs now!

MAURINE: G-good idea.

ABBEY: Aww, really?

ARIA: Yeah, c’mon, grab the stuff.

ABBEY: Hmph!

Mom takes a bite of cereal and shrugs.

MOM: Some other time. I’ll get the stool to put the stuff away...

I lead everybody back upstairs and we’re finally back in my room. Whew! Still naked but at least Mom’s not here...

ARIA: That... was... an... awful idea.

ABBEY: And by that you mean awesome!

MAURINE: N-no... it was awful. I still c-can’t believe Lina saw me like this. We still have to stay like this all night too... M-maybe we could wrap ourselves up in those blankets...?

ABBEY: That’d be so boring!

Um, so we got the salt and sugar! Now what, maybe movies or something?

What's a sleepover without some horror movies?

>>590319
Definitely movies. Also now that Maurine doesn't have to worry about your mom seeing her, she should ditch the tablecloth. That was just because of your mom, she doesn't get to wear anything when only you two are around!

Wait, I finally noticed she put her ribbon back on. It happened right before you went to the kitchen. ...I'll allow it, it's not like it covers anything.

>Wait, I finally noticed she put her ribbon back on.

She never took it off. That was an art error. Or it's behind her head. Whichever.

Movies is fine, though knowing maurine, she would probably be too scared for horror movies, and knowing Abbey, she probably would suggest a porno movie.

How about a fighting movie, you can probably study up on some techniques that way, and use them in your moves for future battles.

Definitely! There’s no way she’s wearing more than I am!

The blankets would maybe be comfy, but I dunno if that’d be in the spirit of the dare. Um... It’d be really nice to get covered though...

>Movies is fine, though knowing maurine, she would probably be too scared for horror movies, and knowing Abbey, she probably would suggest a porno movie.

Eh, Abbey’s more into musicals. She’s not just a huge pervert, you know! She does other stuff too! Besides, I don’t even have any porn movies.

What’s a horror movie, anyway?

>How about a fighting movie, you can probably study up on some techniques that way, and use them in your moves for future battles.

That’s a great idea! I dunno about fighting movies, but I’ve recorded tons and tons and tons of battles when they were on TV, sometimes they even show really old fights! I’ll just pick out some of my favorites since I have way too many of these!

Millie and Gertrude vs. Ralph and Lexie, 2011: Ralph and Lexie, whoever they are, get stomped, but it’s awesome! Millie’s weapons and Gertrude’s wands are really crazy to watch!

Juliana vs Electra, 1992: This one was like over ten years ago, but it’s crazy! Juliana’s a mega-huge dragon with crazy powers, but Elecktra manages to just barely beat her.

Cher Nobel vs. Robert, 1985: This was even longer ago, but People say this is the match that made people notice Cher! She just tears right through him without even using her powers. It’s nuts!

Honey and Her Boys vs. The Emerald City Elites, 2000: Dorothy and her gang just completely destroy Honey’s team even though they’re a member short!

>>591066
Oh man, you have GOT to watch Cher's fight. Winning without powers? That has got to involve some clever tactics.

Let's watch the Cher Nodel video

>blankets, stuff
Wrap up if you want to, don't make a big deal about her doing it either. The bet was to ditch clothes, and that already happened.

>What’s a horror movie, anyway?
A movie that tries to be scary on purpose. Some people enjoy the thrill.

>Juliana’s a mega-huge dragon
>mega-huge dragon
>mega-dragon
MUST SEE.

Awww, you spoiled who the winners are to most of those fights! Oh well, the Cher Nobel vs. Robert will be interesting to study on.

I'd say watch whatever one you'd think would be the most informative, like a tag battle or gang fight since we've never seen how one of those work, or if you just want to watch a good fight just pick your favorite.

>What’s a horror movie, anyway?
... A horror movie is a movie that was made for the sole purpose of scaring the watchers. You people seriously don't have horror movies? I find this very sad for some reason.

Lets watch some Elektra fight.

A scary movie? That’s a really weird idea! How do you even make a movie scary? It’s not like anything bad can happen when you watch them!

>Awww, you spoiled who the winners are to most of those fights! Oh well, the Cher Nobel vs. Robert will be interesting to study on.

Aw, sorry about that! I’ve seen these so many times I kinda forgot that not everybody knows how they end! I’ll try not to tell you what happens before it does, so I don’t spoil it any more!

Cher Nobel is cool though!

>Lets watch some Elektra fight.

Oh, Juliana and Electra’s fight’s pretty awesome too! Hmmm...

Well Cher’s isn’t all that long, so we’ll just watch both!

I pick them both off of the little shelf under my TV.

ARIA: Hey, lets watch some old fights and eat the snacks! And we should totally bundle up in the blankets!

ABBEY: *sigh* Fine. You picked Juliana’s and Cher’s fights? Badass.

Maurine looks a little disappointed, but she doesn’t say anything. Battles aren’t really her thing, but oh well, it’s my birthday after all!

I put Cher’s fight in the disk player and grab the remote, and turn out the light. Then Abbey and me gather up all the snacks and blankets by the chairs. Then we bundle up.

ABBEY: That’s no fun.

Ah, that’s better! Maurine’s still got the tablecloth. She tenses up and looks at me and blushes harder.

MAURINE: Uh, um... I need to grab a blanket... please don’t stare.

I look away and cover Abbey’s eyes.

ABBEY: Hey!

ARIA: Don’t be a jerk!

ABBEY: Hmph!

Maurine comes over and pushes her chair between me and Abbey with her feet. The blanket’s a little bit short on her so I can see her knees. Still as blushy as ever, Maurine smiles at me.

MAURINE: Um... Aria...?

ARIA: Yeah?

MAURINE: C-could you get me some pretzels and orange soda...? I don’t w-want to let the blanket loose...

Oh jeez she’s so adorable.

ARIA: Sure!

I pour her some pretzels and orange soda, and grab some party mix, root beer and coffee cakes for myself.

MAURINE: Th-thanks Aria...

Abbey grabs some cheese puffs and pours some root beer and looks over at us.

ABBEY: Can we start this already!?

ARIA: Yeah! Jeez, hold your horses!

I hit play on the movie and the League logo pops up, then it switches to show a sandy island with a bunch of palm trees and a little house.

HORACE: Hey there fellas! Horace here, commentating this archival match. This here is our current singles division champ, Cher Noble in her first real league fight, and boy is it a doozy!

Oh, hey, it’s that guy Mom was talking about! Cher crawls out of the water on the shore completely soaking wet, wearing some kinda scuba mask. She’s got a nice light dress on, with some sort of gun slung over one shoulder, and a bag around the other. She looks pretty mad.

HORACE: In case any of you’ve been living under a rock all these years, I’ll fill ya in on Cher’s history a little! Cher’s probably the richest gadget maker in the land, owner of Nobel Industries. She made her fortune selling all kinds of dangerous techy weapons of her own design!

MAURINE: She has such a fashion sense, too... They never talk about that...

Oh come on! Just get to the fight!

HORACE: This fight is where it all started! Spectators on the shore saw this and they just had to buy up whatever she was selling! A year later, she was at the top of the industry and battling changed forever. Some folks say it was a complete disaster, others, a revolution! Ain’t that something!

ABBEY: Just shut up and fight already! I already know all this stuff!

MAURINE: ...you do?

ABBEY: Yeah! It’s in “A History of Industrial Weapons: How Technological Change Evened the Playing Field for Everyone”, page six-hundred and fifty seven.

MAURINE: ...oh.

Abbey shrugs and eats a cheese puff.

ABBEY: Eh, sometimes I read a little.

Cher glows bright red and she’s completely dry. Robert comes out of his little shack in a t-shirt, shoes and shorts, and casually strolls over to her.

HORACE: And there she is, wasting a perfectly good searing mark right before the fight. In all my battling years, I’ve never quite seen someone fight quite like Cher! Just watch, it’s pretty amazing!

Cher and Robert just kinda stand there and talk a little. The camera zooms in on Robert smiling and shaking her hand.

HORACE: Cher set the stakes pretty high here! She bet everything she’s got including her spares for just a badge and a forfeit. She was pretty confident in all those doodads of hers. If she wins, he’s gotta keep his stuff off and wear a sign around his neck advertising her gizmos. Then he’s gotta stand buck-naked on the edge of the beach where people can see him and read the sign. Clever advertising trick, ain't it? Hold on to your butts, they’re about to start!

Robert points his claw at her and she reaches into her bag real quick holds up a little metal stick with something that looks kinda like a doorknob at the end. Robert stops and looks at her like “what are you even doing”, then shoots a laser out of his claw at her. She just holds the knobby thing in the laser. There’s a blinding glare for an instant. It stops and Robert’s clothes are gone, and Cher’s behind him with her gun. Crazy, Huh?

HORACE: Confused? Yeah, a lot of folks were until some intrepid analysts cleaned up and slowed down the footage. Let’s watch the instant replay!

Cher holds out the little stick really slowly, and the laser hits the knob. A bunch of little metal balls shoot out of her bag and hang in the air. Then she throws the stick in the sand between his legs and vanishes. The stick explodes and blows off his shoes and pants, then Cher appears behind him and shoots him in the back with an exploding bullet.

HORACE: It’s speculated that Cher rigged up an explosive stone to the inside of that stick of hers, and in turn rigged that up to a little remote which in turn triggered the levitating flash gizmos in her bag. They created enough of a distraction for her to throw the exploding stone and use a blink mark to get behind him for the final blow with her custom-made ammo. At least that’s what the tech-savvy youngsters told me! I have no idea what I just said! Now for the forfeit!

Cher walks him over to the edge of beach. He squirms, and blushes and the camera cuts to people using his own pay-binoculars to look at him on the island. The sign says “Robert the Laser Claw, Humbled without the use of Powers, with the assistance of NOBEL INDUSTRIES WEAPONRY. BUY TODAY!”

ABBEY: Eh, that was boring. All her clothes stayed on! Where’s the fun in that! Boooooo!

MAURINE: I’m happy that her pretty outfit didn’t get damaged... it would have been such a shame...

The next one starts out with the league logo again, and the announcer speaks up as it cuts to a huge library lobby with bleachers installed on the second floor, with Juliana sitting at a desk at least as big as a bus, her elbows, or front legs maybe, propping her up. Electra walks in wearing a cute sky blue dress, a huge club wrapped in ribbons strapped to her back. She’s got a huge leather band and a coil of rope slung over her shoulder.

ANNOUNCER: Lucille here, reporting on a tier 3 vendetta match! Electra, an up-and-coming underdog who came out of nowhere, has been sweeping all the singles arena leaders in recent months, has decided to challenge Juliana. Electra has made claims that Juliana’s status as headmistress of the Championship University of Battlecraft is a sham, because according to her, anyone with enough, in her words, “grit” can learn to fight without paying lots of money for it. Now lets see how they set the stakes of the fight!
Juliana’s sitting at her desk, steepling her fingers and looking down at Electra and frowning.

JULIANA: I have received your correspondence, and I have accepted your challenge. What are your terms?

ELECTRA: I’m here to teach everybody that you don’t need a fancy education if you wanna hit the big times! You just need to get out there an’ kick some ass. Once you do enough of it, you get good. Then you kick even more ass to get even more good! And I’m gonna kick your ass to show everybody that it’s true.

Everybody up in the bleachers boos at Electra.

ELECTRA: FUCK YOU TOO! NERDS! I’ll show you what a real fighter looks like!

JULIANA: Enough of this rubbish. What are your terms?

Electra grabs the coil and band and holds them up, then yells up at Juliana.

ELECTRA: You see this!?

JULIANA: Yes. I see that.

ELECTRA: It’s a leash, and if I win, you’re gonna wear it! You’re gonna be nude, and I’m gonna walk you bare-assed all over your shammy-ass school with it so everybody can see that their shammy-ass headmistress lost to me, a girl who didn’t get any of your fancy-smancy education! I get your badge too! How about that!

Juliana just looks at her for a couple seconds without even blinking.

JULIANA: Fair enough. If I win, you have to start taking classes here. I feel that an actual proper education in battling would benefit you more than you realize. Of course, as is customary for forfeits like this, you will attend your first class right after this battle, completely without clothing. How does that sound?

She throws the collar aside and smiles at Juliana.

ELECTRA: You got yourself a deal! Let’s get this party STARTED!

LUCILLE: Looks like they’re finally done with their banter. Wow, they set the stakes high here! They must really want to humiliate each other. Lets see how these two approach the fight!

Juliana just sits at her desk, and smiles. Sparkles come out of her scales and fill the room, and Electra starts pulls out her club and starts swinging it at random.

ELECTRA: What the fuck kind of power is this! Fucking bats everywhere! AAAARRRRGGGHH!

LUCILLE: Looks like Juliana started out with her signature move, glamour sparkles! They make you see things that aren’t there! Look how confused Electra is. The battle’s barely started and she’s already basically on the ropes!

Electra’s hands glow white and she releases a huge tornado that blows away the sparkles. Juliana opens her mouth and breathes fire over her her desk at Electra. She jumps just in time, so her outfit isn’t completely blown to bits, but she loses everything under her waist! She swings her club right at Juliana and it sends out a huge shockwave that splits her desk and half and blows up her Jacket and everything under it, just leaving her in her skirt. Electra kicks off her bare, plated chest and lands right in front of her again. Juliana falls flat on her face ‘cause she was leaning on the desk, but she gets right back up.

Everybody in the crowd gasps and Juliana pulls her head back in shock and flushes.

JULIANA: You troglodyte! Do you have any idea how much that cost!

ELECTRA: Ha ha ha!

LUCILLE: Well that was unexpected! I don’t think Juliana was expecting such a direct attack! I don’t know if she’ll fall for it again though.

Electra jumps again like she’s just gonna charge her more, and Juliana puts a hand out to grab her. Electra jumps right over her though, and kicks off a stand and flies at her from behind. Juliana cranes her head around to shoot fire and hits Electra and burns off the rest if her dress and everything under it.

Electra hits Juliana right in the forehead with her club. All of the bands around her horns and her glasses snap into little pieces, and her head snaps back so fast that it smacks against the ground. Electra does a flip and lands on Juliana’s butt club-first, and her skirt and everything under it tear into a million pieces at the shockwave.

She really just shows the same thing in slow motion.

LUCILLE: Okay! Now for the forfeit!

Electra dashes off and gets dressed from a bag she left near the door, while Juliana regains her senses a little. Juliana glares and stiffens her lip and blushes but doesn’t say anything at all. The crowd is completely quiet as Juliana lowers her head and lets Electra fasten the leash around her neck, then leads her outside.

LUCILLE: Lets switch to the flycam and send the thing outside to get a better look!

Electra leads Juliana through the school, and slowly, a crowd of students gathers as they start to figure out what’s going on. Electra yells about winning and how she didn’t need Juliana to do it. Some of them boo, while others cheer or laugh. A lot of them look like don’t know how to react. Electra smiles and pulls the rope sometimes when Juliana holds her head high, bringing her head, neck, and front legs down and her butt up.

LUCILLE: Jeez, Electra must really have it out for Juliana! I guess that’s it for now, so adios everybody!

MAURINE: That was so cruel!

ABBEY: Eh, she agreed to the stakes.

ARIA: I dunno... the fight was awesome, though! Did you see Electra jumping all over the arena like that?! And she managed to beat Juliana even though she was a lot bigger!

*YAAAAWN* Those were cool but I’m full and I’m getting kinda sleepy. Maybe we should go to bed, I guess I could try to stay up so we could do more stuff but what would we even do?

eh, it's your day kid. you want to call it a night call it a night.

Also one side note, just how tough are people here? I mean laser claw got shot with freaking explosive ammo and all it did was tear his clothes away. I guess what I'm trying to say here is does any ever get really hurt during these fights or or you all more or less indestructible?

Those were some good fights, pretty informative too, right?

But yeah, bed time! I hope we can join you in your adventures in dream land. If not, see tomorrow, and good night.

...Cher's got out-of-place technology? Interesting. Also interesting is that people don't know what guns and dynamite are. Heheh, we need to get Maurine, Abbey and you in on making some "gizmos" of your own.

>University of Battlecraft
Man, what? I can appreciate a powerful dragon, but seriously? A university of Battlecraft? They should just call it a school of martial training, man. Sounds much better than Battlecraft.
>*YAAAAWN* Those were cool but I’m full and I’m getting kinda sleepy. Maybe we should go to bed, I guess I could try to stay up so we could do more stuff but what would we even do?
Just get some sleep, Aria. We learned plenty from those two videos.

Explaining horror movies...

You know how, when you watch a film or read a book, you get involved in the lives of the characters? You start to feel sympathy for them, and feel the consequences of their struggles, their successes, and their failures? That's how the viewer can become scared. He or she is experiencing the fear felt by the protagonists.

I loved this last bit more than I can say.

Will Juliana be showing up again ever? Is she still the headmistress or did she lose her job over this? I freaking love her design and uh... everything about her :X.

I would show more and tell less next time, though. Like Juliana's reactions to, ahem, the events going on were never shown.

Go ahead and get some sleep

>How do you even make a movie scary? It’s not like anything bad can happen when you watch them!
People aren't only scared of bad things happening to them. *ominous thunder*

There are ways to do it, though. Immersion, for one. If you can get a person to buy into a story to the point they start to forget themselves, it doesn't matter if the danger is real. An emotional investment or attachment can also work- if the film gets you to care about the characters, you start to care about what happens to them. You fear for them, vicariously.

And hell, people respond to their environments. If you establish a good, convincing atmosphere of fear? They start to buy into it. Especially in a dark, crowded theater, with everyone around them starting to buy into it to.

You've never been disturbed by a painting? Worried about the outcome at the end of a book? Art's capable of making us feel things.

I might as well ask you why any of your nudie movies are titillating. It's not like anything is happening to you!

>and uh... everything about her :X.
Hahah, another dracomaniac, eh? Dragons are the greatest species ever... That's not to say they'll always win, just that they're awesome.
Take that name how you will, perverts. I just love seeing dragons, regardless of the circumstance, and don't care how others view me for it.

Keep this kind of discussion to the discussion thread, please.

Man a bunch of these fighters are assholes, is this common to them?

>Man a bunch of these fighters are assholes, is this common to them?

No, not really! Sometimes some of them are really mean though, but it’s not all that common! You guys just picked some of the fights where they acted like the biggest jerks. I think Electra’s kind of a jerkface all the time, though.

>...Cher's got out-of-place technology? Interesting. Also interesting is that people don't know what guns and dynamite are.

Nah, Horace is just kinda old and doesn’t really get the new stuff she came up with! And it’s not like she invented guns or anything, she just made them better! I think anyway.

> Heheh, we need to get Maurine, Abbey and you in on making some "gizmos" of your own.

None of us can make stuff like that! We can use alchemy shops to make stuff better though.

>>MEGA-DRAGON FIGHT
>THAT WAS AWESOME

I KNOW RIGHT?

>Man, what? I can appreciate a powerful dragon, but seriously? A university of Battlecraft? They should just call it a school of martial training, man. Sounds much better than Battlecraft.

I dunno if it matters? I know I don’t care like at all.

>Also one side note, just how tough are people here? I mean laser claw got shot with freaking explosive ammo and all it did was tear his clothes away. I guess what I'm trying to say here is does any ever get really hurt during these fights or or you all more or less indestructible?

I guess kinda maybe? I mean sometimes you get little cuts and bruises if you get hit really hard, but how would you even get hurt worse than that? I mean I fell off a really really tall tree when my moms took me camping one time and my head hurt for like a week, but that’s it.

I guess I get that...? I kinda feel worried about characters in movies and stuff but I dunno about actually really being scared or anything.

>I might as well ask you why any of your nudie movies are titillating. It's not like anything is happening to you!

Uh... Titillating...? Um, they’re cool fights but I’m not a huge pervert like Abbey or anything.

>Those were some good fights, pretty informative too, right?

I dunno, they were cool but I didn’t get anything new out of them I guess.

>But yeah, bed time! I hope we can join you in your adventures in dream land. If not, see tomorrow, and good night.

Yeah, that’s right! I dunno if you guys can see my dreams though.

ARIA: *YAAAWN* ...Hey guys, you wanna maybe get some sleep?

MAURINE: Yeah... I could definitely sleep...

ABBEY: Oh, c’mon! That’s no fun!

Maurine shoots a little glare at Abbey.

ABBEY: *sigh* You are birthday-girl, though.

ARIA: I’ll set up the cots. Abbey, move the snacks.

ABBEY: Aye Aye Captain!

ARIA: Oh, and hey Abbey?

ABBEY: What?

ARIA: If my blanket falls down or something while I’m moving the cots, don’t creep on me, okay?.

I grab the cots and stand them up. It’s hard to do and my blanket slips a little but I get it. I put pillow on them and I’m done. Abbey rolls up and clips the bags and puts everything down by the dresser and doesn’t even look at me while I set up the cots. I flip off the light and get in bed and cover myself up with my quilt, and Abbey and Maurine get on their cots. Maurine’s feet hang off the end and she looks a little embarrassed that her blanket’s too short, but I’m sure she’ll be okay.

ABBEY: Um, Aria... Maurine...? Sorry if I was being kind of a huge rude asshole earlier...

ARIA: It’s okay, really! You’re not getting out of your dares though!

ABBEY: Yeah, yeah.

It’s quiet for a little bit.

MAURINE: Goodnight, Aria. A-and... Happy Birthday!

ABBEY: Yeah, goodnight, birthday-girl.

ARIA: Goodnight, everybody!

I grab Mr. Teddykins and snuggle him to my chest. Wow it’s really weird sleeping like this. But tonight was pretty weird too so I guess that’s kinda fitting? I still kinda can’t believe Maurine really just got naked like that. She’s so shy and shaky about anybody being naked near her ever.

Abbey too, but I thought she might throw her clothes off sometime anyway, just not on the same night as Maurine! Everybody being naked like that was even weirder though, it was like some kinda freaky fever dream.

Today was pretty awesome anyway though! The powers the Good King gave me and my mom’s gifts are soooo cool and I almost won a battle with Delia even though she was really strong. You guys are pretty cool too even if you’re really weird sometimes. I hope tomorrow is half as neat as today was!

Goodnight, guys!

END OF SUPER CLOTHING DAMAGE PROLOGUE

*Applause* yaaaaaaay, encore! Honestly can't wait for more, a fun and unique quest!

>Uh... Titillating...?
Exciting, then. You're still experiencing vicarious emotion.

>I mean sometimes you get little cuts and bruises if you get hit really hard, but how would you even get hurt worse than that?
Well there's why your world isn't inclined towards the horror genre. You're all nigh-invincible. Actual peril is largely a foreign concept. (Although that lends itself to another kind of horror if you're twisted and creative enough).

>I mean I fell off a really really tall tree when my moms took me camping one time and my head hurt for like a week, but that’s it.
For comparison, in other places, falling from a tall tree could result in someone's death, permanent long term injury or disability, broken limbs, and/or concussion or brain damage.

I suppose the logical question would be what kinds of things manage to kill people at all, since violence seems largely ineffective.

...uh. Really shouldn't be bringing this up before bedtime, should I. Let's save those questions for tomorrow.
