Pat Geoff on the back as you head upstairs to return the medicine and check on Ramona.

>>833076
Oh sure, let's give Julia some gas so that she can go right back outside to her escape plan that was doomed to failure already, and be probably killed by the reverends.

I'm not being sarcastic by the way. Let's totally do that.

She'd just get us all killed otherwise anyway.

At long last, return the drugs to Sophie!

Id argue we try and seduce Penny. See how grateful she is about us finding Marcie.

>>833080
Agreed, but first we should ask Rita if she's patched up and ok now. We should introduce Julia to Sophie while we get ourselves patched up.

Then we should take Julia aside and tell her "Here everybody is running from something, and nobody knows about your past unless you talk about it. The feds don't come here, and the town cops just care about keeping the peace in town.
You've got a clean start here if you want it, but you need to chill the fuck out."

We can have Susanna give Julia a crash course on how she's trapped in purgatory when she gets back.

Once we check on Ramona we should spend some time with our amnesiac girlfriend.

Immediately clarify that any statements Rita attributed to you regarding Geoff were lies and vicious slander.
Drag Julia upstairs to apologize for "finding" the drugs.

We should get our cuts looked at.

>>833091
Her 'benzo problem' is unrelated to gasoline. It is a type of drug that she is addicted to. The person you are replying to is suggesting that Sophie, a doctor, medically treat Julia's drug addiction. I'm not sure why you ever thought gas was involved, but it isn't.

1. Drugs to Sophie/get patched up.
2. Check on/recall Snanor
3. Check on Ramona
4. Calm/create cover for Julia
5. Drown in hero pussy
6. If 5 doesn't work, rabbit rebound nookie

>>833117
My excuses are A) attributing "benzo" to "benzine" somehow, and B) still remembering the rather heated denial that Julia is not an addict.

>>833118
Oh shit, the snayor's still in danger! This is a good priority list, yes.

>>833118
We should be able to do 1 and 3 at the same time. I'm with >>833107 on the subject of 4. But

I also vehemently oppose 6: we need to not approach Julia that way, not because she'd be unappealing or unpleasant to be around, but rather because she's still got hangups from the past and we don't want to encourage her.

Seconded. Get HAM nekkid snake lady back safe.

First things first: give the meds to Sophie and check on Ramona. You should have Sophie take a look at you too.

Calling back Susanna with the clipboard is a good idea too. Let's do that asap.

Then once we've got that out of the way, we can bask in the glory of our good deeds... and see to it that Julia doesn't start shit.

Well that's two you owe Davey now.

>>833071
Yes, Susanna's the last one we need to contact. She needs to know she can rest, everyone else is accounted for. And we do need to check on Ramona -- and let Sophie know she's got her supplies back.

So, did everyone forget that the wards pn the plath house prevent susanna from entering as well? Becayse there seems to be an awful lot of people suggesting to bring her back

>>833149
It's safer to be in sight of the house even if you can't be inside of the house. Magical wards like that also tend to have an exception where they may be invited in - speaking of which, if the house has a welcome mat we should probably bring it inside.

Find out where Sophie is and return her bag.

Give the medicine to Sophie and ask her about Sophie while she examines your horribly injuries.

To the Mayor's Office!
This night's not over. The people can't stay here forever. Susana needs a plan to take care of these demons permanently.
It'ss likely take a ton of agat though.

Ask the doctor to look at your wounds

Geoff takes you upstairs to where Sophie is. One of the rooms is brightly lit with the door ajar. When you enter you are revolted immediately. The walls are hung with bedsheets, and the floor is covered with what looks like most of the Plath House's supply of towels. Layla is lying on a towel-covered bed, grunting in pain and biting down on a cut of rope. Sophie is using all of her arms to stitch Layla's wound.

Sophie: "Leave"

You: "I have the medicine."

Sophie's shoulders relax a bit, and she exhales deeply.

Sophie: "Thank you. Please. Leave until I finish."

Layla is looking right at you, triggering a minor flight response. You wait outside.

>>833283
Check on Ramona.

Call Susanna

Check on Rita, our hero.

Check on Ramona.

Priority is Susanna now. Gotta tell her to get her supple cheeks over here.

ALL OF THE ABOVE. Make the rounds then come get patched up.

You leave the medication outside the room for Sophie, then return downstairs to find Lisa.

You: "I guess..."

You: "I guess you can tell Susanna everyone's fine."

Lisa: "I did."

Lisa: "She's on her way back."

Ask where everybody is, then go see them all in about the order of whoever happens to be the closest. Once you get to Lisa, ask her to get in touch with Susanna.

>>833309
Well, that's that settled.

Ramona next!

>>833283
Mom dog next. But make it quick! She's probably not fairing much better since last time.

Go make sure Ramona is fine. If you see Julia around, make sure she isn't getting to trouble. If you see Davey, tell him the truth of the drugs and ask him to keep an eye on the bunny - but to not tell anyone else, lest morale drops.

>>833309
We'd better go to Ramona next and tell that Susanna is coming over, so that Ramona can give Susanna permission to enter the Plath House! Because without getting Ramona's permission, the magic barrier is going to keep Susanna out of the house!

Ask Momdog for permission to let Susanna in.

Relevant: >>/questarch/758519
>this house is warded, she can’t come in without my permission

Umm, Susanna is on her way back where? Back to the City Hall? Tell Lisa that Susanna should come to the Plath House, and that Ramona will give her permission to enter.

We should go see if Ramona is up. We will need to get permission for Susanna.

Tell Lisa she did good too, for chrissake.

Get one of those gropeyhugs. while you're about it.

You go back upstairs and quietly enter Ramona's bedroom. Ramona slowly opens her eyes as the light from the hallway hits her. She is lying there with a small glass of brandy on her bedside table.

Ramona: "Ed?"

You: "It's Chuck"

Ramona: "Oh... of course. What happened"

Ramona: "You're hurt"

You: "I'm ok. I just need a few patches over these cuts. I've taken worse than this."

You: "How"

You feel a tingle in your neck.

You: "how are you feeling?"

Ramona: "Oh..."

Ramona: "Better. Nauseated..."

Ramona: "Sally came to see me. She isn't hurt."

You: "Oh, yeah. I know. No one's really hurt that bad."

Ramona: "I'm sorry"

You: "For what?"

Ramona: "I never knew it was this bad. My drinking. I'm so ashamed."

Ramona: "How can I raise my daughter this way"

Ramona: "I'm a terrible mother."

>>833324
Tell Ramona about Julia. Maybe it will help her to see what a real fuck-up looks like. Sally's a good kid, she did a good job -- if she hadn't, she would have turned out more like Julia.

Agree, check on other dogs.

>>833324
"We can talk about that later. For now Susanna needs a permission to get in. I know that one's not easy for you now either, but she kind of saved us all tonight.

Hang in there."

>>833327
This works.

"You know what I used to be like. You'll know even more once you get to meet an old acquaintance of mine. And I don't think anyone's without a blame right now anyway. Just rest... give Susanna a permission to get through the barriers, then take it easy. All right?"

>>833324
"We all make mistakes. Gotta learn from them and do better next time. No one got that hurt by this one anyway."

Smile, pause, sigh. "Listen, we can talk more about that stuff later. You can rest, and stuff. But for now... I know you're not going to like this, but you need to open a way for Susanna to enter. She helped us all out a lot too. Can't leave her out there."

These are all good suggestions.

But you should still go back and thank/fondle Lisa.
Overlooking her is such a Geoff thing to do.

>>833324
Tell her she's a better mother than yours, and Sally turned out fine, if a bit under-educated.

Then let's go get LAID. Hmmmmm who's gonna get some dick now I wonder. Maybe we could see if Angela is in the mood. Rita's probably in too much pain.

Explain recent events to Ramona.
Ask her about permission for Susanna.

>>833331
This.

>>833324
Wrap her in a hug.
"Don't bullshit yourself. Sally's a good person, and the only reason you're in that bed is because you were too good at keeping your problems away from her. She dumped the alcohol because she found out you had a drinking problem and was trying to save you. What kind of person finds out someone needs help and immediately jumps to help them? If you were a bad mother she would have already known and wouldn't have tried to help.

Ye shall know them by their works. Sally is a fantastic person, so you're a fantastic mother, and I won't let anybody say otherwise. That goes double for you.

I've been meaning to ask. How long ago were you diagnosed with cancer? Time passes weird here, so could it be something you've had all along?"

You don't get to choose your mother, so you make do. Sally isn't too bad off, in that regard.
Ask about snek sanctuary.

>>833324
She didn't know better.
Still, her hearts in the right place. She was just doing what she thought was right.
Sounds like you did a pretty decent job to me.

Before I miss the chance to suggest this later, tell her on the way out that even though the circumstances aren't good, we managed to get her some guests for the Plath House.

>>833410
This is worth mentioning. No matter what else we say, it might get a smile from her.

>>833410
Agreed, and it's also an excellent throw-back.

>>833410
Second

Ramona, I know terrible mothers and that's not you by a damn sight. I found those drugs that'll help, so you've still got time if you've really got regrets.

>>833410
Definitely this, yes.

>>833410
This.

And should we mention that it's the entire town minus the Snayor or can she already tell from all the noise downstairs?

Geeze chuck, give her a hug and tell her how much you love her. Not the way love Marcie, but still, she's taken you in and is basically family now. Not like your asshole family, like the families you watched on television.

Give her a taste of her own medicine, hit her with this:

"What you’ve done is only who you are if you don’t change what you do."

That's what she said to us when we admitted what a huge fuck up we were. Yeah, Ramona is an alcoholic, but she doesn't have to be.

Even with cancer, she still has time to become a better parent and at least try to fix things.

>>833324
"Trust me, if anyone knows bad parenting, it's me. And you're nowhere close to that level."

Ramona closes her eyes, but opens one briefly to look at you. She takes a deep breath and smiles.

You: "And, uh, for what it's worth"

You: "I managed to get you a few more guests."

Ramona:

Ramona: "Oh, that's lovely."

Ramona: "I'd love to greet them, but I need some sleep."

Geoff: "Ms. Plath."

Geoff knocks on the door, then opens it after a moment. He's wearing all white, except for a pair of what look like 19th century military boots.

Geoff: "Dr. Sophie sent me with some pills for you to take in the morning, and I brought you some water."

Ramona: "You are a dear. Thank you."

>>833536
"Good job, Geoff."

Make it clear there're no grudges or anything.

"Need a hand with Lisa?"

Tell Ramona that one guest needs a permission to pass the wards to enter the house.

>>833540
This.

We might as well let Susanna into the house. Then we can tell Ramona that we got the whole town into her house!

>>833537
Inside the wards or not, lying is a sin.

Entreat Ramona to let the snake in her backdoor.

>>833537
This but without the Lisa comment, as things are still in a crisis situation.

Ask Ramona if Susanna can have permission to enter, if she objects, mention that the Plath house is the only sanctuary from the reverends at the moment (I'm not sure if she knows what went down.).

Nah, fuck it. Let's be petty. Don't let Ramona see it but glare at him. Or give a snide remark about his outfit.

I'm tired of seeing all the wet blanket suggestions.

>>833536
>Lisa in a bathrobe
>Geoff in a new set of clothes
...did they do it? Ask him if they did it.

>>833546
No no, don't ask.

Just give this really wide, wicked, sleazy grin. You know what he did, and you can let him know of that without any words.

>>833547
This.

Just smile like a douchebag dudebro.

>>833546
I would expect it to be makeshift nurse outfit that Sophie told him wear. So it might be better to not accidentally offend him right away.

>>833557
That's another reason we'll just smile at him. If they did the deed, he'll know what it means. If they didn't, it'll fly right over his head and no one will be offended.

>>833557
>makeshift nurse outfit
Yeah, that makes more sense than Geoff and Lisa doing it.

He probably hasn't even attempted to ask Lisa yet!

>>833536
Thanks Geoff.

You owe me your ass, and I'll collect it later. In bed. With anal. And interest. Anal interest.

>>833557
Oh you're right. The question should be more like "Sophie picked out that outfit for you, huh?"

Guys no, he's not that straight.
Send him to comfort Ramona, so he can get his training wheels.

"Get in there, you slight furry oaf, I don't care what you smell."

Can't we just get Sally's Permission? She's Plath blood. The ward should apply. Ramona's in no condition to be making such decisions, and asking her would just get her all worked up when she needs rest.

Alternatively, we could just meet with the mayor outside. As long as she stay's close one of our gun-toting companions could assist her with any respawning clergymen.

>>833593
I think it has to be the house owner and Ramona owns the house, not Sally.

kiss ramona on the forehead when Geoff leaves the room, and tell her we're staying in Coxwette. I think it's appropriate given our little speech about not being a loser here earlier.

I suggest we just leave. Let's go comfort Sally. Let her know we got the meds we need to keep Ramona safe. Or go make sure those meds get to Sophie. We've got like 10 honeys down stairs we can go play the hero card on. Let's go get laid (and by someone with some personality).

Get examined/patched up by Sophie. And make sure to ask if it's okay to have sex afterwards

If the answer is yes, hit on her.

>>833629
We can't, she's in the middle of stitching up Layla.

We're gonna have to wait our turn and I'm pretty sure it's gonna be a while.

You sneer at Geoff on the way out of the room, but don't say anything. He looks gay in those clothes. Super gay. Sophie probably told him to wear them or something. You make it a goal to punch him back sometime.

We missed the biggest orgy ever, but it's probably for the best.

Dream sequence next chapter?

>>833649
Not even the old Chuck Charm can stand up to the combined might of staying up too damn late at night and running around and being a fucking hero!

Wake up in a pile of _____

Sounds about right.

Wake up to tender doctor TLC. Yes, that's two tenders. One in each arm.

If you really wanna get back at Geoff, go fuck Rita and then fuck Geoff so that his sister is indirectly fucking him in the ass, and then tell him afterwards.

>>833697
Not that I'm actually suggesting this, that is depraved and messed up and Geoff is a good guy.

Should definitely make up with him by banging him, tho.

Break Geoff's nose. This will prove you're the alpha male to Lisa and Rita. Besides, he's a pussy bitch and you made a promise.

>>833674
I, on the other hand, absolutely am. Reason: it'll be fuckin' hilarious.

Wake up having completely missed the orgy.
