Can I un-vote for fairy ring? An anti-vote? It sounds like a reeeeeeeally bad idea, especially as unprepared as you are.

As for the cash, you already spent what you could of it on rent and stuff. So it's effectively about as much worth as kindling to you at the moment.

Mental note: avoid big heists until you have some place to stash the loot.

A) Go to Lokkport, see if any tourist trap shops sells expensive collector stuff you could resell on the internet. Laundering!

Yeah, Lokkport seems like the safest option; if nothing magical turns up in your search, you can always fall back on buying some expensive assets you can convert back into laundered money (of any denomination) elsewhere.

Three weeks ago the ground began to shake. Gently, at first, like some drunken giant's wheezing snore.

Whenever winds came from the north, a nameless numb despair gripped the peoples' hearts, but bedrock slept soundly.

On other days the quaking slowly escalated. Cookpot-sized sinkholes were met with eager curiosity. When they started swallowing whole wagons, that turned to terror.

Prominent families sent trusted representatives to the town's sturdiest and most central building, hoping to plan a coordinated response to the crisis.

>how many midnight stones were collected before the phase glove expired
Well, as many as I have time for probably. I'll use one to recharge my phase glove. Can we quickly find any buyers?

The slugman's stalk eyes open wider and droop closer to the watch's display as it emits one chirping ping after another.

>"...Hey Vorkruns? What's that timer for?"
"Oh no. Ohhh no no no no no...not now! I need one of you to lower me into the tunnel immediately! Ah, please. I have to leave!" Sepurcius scoots down to the elevator as fast as his snail foot can carry him. Gonna spend speed effort on this, whatever it takes.

>Who's carrying which cyphers at the end of the day
Alaiya is still carrying her level 3 Pressure Detonator, and has replaced her spent infiltrator with the level 5 Strength booster. Saharnya is carrying the level 6 Flash Detonator and the level 8 Metal Death. When he returned from the tunnels, Sepurcius was carrying the level 9 Reality Spike and level 4 Acidic Resonator and at least one midnight stone (but he might have chosen to swap around cyphers or pick up another since). The remaining embarrassment of riches includes the level 2 Sheen, level 5 Explosive Poison, level 5 Sonic Hole and level 6 Heat Nodule.

Saharnya seems interested in selling whatever's left over for iotum, which seems reasonable. Maybe wait until the nano's done attempting to recharge his phase glove- whether or not he succeeds determines if he has an open cypher slot or not.

>-Most of the papers in the master jeweler's wall safe are missing. There are some odd abrasions around the hinge, but it was definitely not opened since the last time those papers were seen, nor has the transdimensional dye marker been triggered. Anything with a wax seal or multiple sheets fastened together is still there.
Perhaps something flattened the sheets enough that they could slip out through the seams? But whatever method was used couldn't similarly compress wax or bindings. Did the guards notice anything?

>-Point source of that poison is less than ten miles outside town. Could cross-reference recent weather and medical records, triangulate the spot to within a few hundred yards, assuming it's stationary.
Seems worth doing! Can't work to track down the machines with a rampaging slug-beast in the tunnels today anyways.

The stuff is insidious, and data is spotty in part because one of the main symptoms is 'unresponsiveness.' By the time Alaiya has it narrowed down to a particular outlying farm, there aren't many hours of daylight left.

Saharnya first greets her cousin - at least, she thinks this is one of her cousins. They haven't seen each other since she left the farm, but everyone in the clowder was on good terms with one another. It's all one big fuzzy blur.

Saharnya's course of action is to negotiate with the trade delegation, using her familial connection with Eliznyabeth and Alaiya's assistance, for the rental of the chainpods and the delegation's mercenaries, in exchange for a major share of any resources they might find on the expeditions. A 60-40 split seems appropriate.

[Persuasion: Intellect, 1 Eff-
"Yo!"
*glass shattering*
"...Reiko."
Saharnya is mildly horrified that Reiko showed up after half a year of being banished - suspended, as Reiko describes it - from House Youngmason. For the fourth or fifth time. Annoyance floods her synapses; Reiko is too valuable as an engineer to shoo away, but too weird and erratic to tolerate. Once again, Reiko tries to insert herself into her life as if nothing happened, and Saharnya knows that the moment Azure finds out she'll welcome Reiko back into the fold and all the peace and quiet she's had risking her life for the nobility for six months will be gone once again.
But Saharnya grips her shiny mattock and grins. She can pull rank over Reiko now.

>You should have an education session to teach the kids why training outside their class is forbidden.

That is a sensible idea, perhaps Jaired’s training officers will be more lenient with him if the Martinet who caught him red-handed is willing to lecture him on the matter herself, though she is certainly not relishing that extra load of work. Perhaps she won’t be having tea with Tarana after all.


“Excuse me, Martinet Trezi?”

“Mm? Yes, Chug?”

“B-back in the tunnel, why did you decide to carry the boy yourself?”

“I thought I told you, I had been the one charged bringing him back, and a good workout never hurt nobody.”

“Goodbye, Chalker, have a good day at work!”, Missy beams as she waves goodbye.

“Hmyeah, thanks, Missy. Break a leg,” the grumpy Toiler emerging from the dormitories’ threshold replies.

“That’s rude. There are better ways to get a day off, silly,” she replies, missing the point yet again, before turning her back towards the street and goes on her merry way.

Or, at least, that’s what befell earlier today, when Chalker begrudgingly got up from his hammock, ate his breakfast and went on to face the new day, pickaxe in hand.

It is now 9:15 AM and Chalker’s first work shift is already well underway.

There are three places where he is supposed to work on this fine day, each of equal and vital importance, each bound to improve the infrastructure of the city and provide a fulfilling sense of purpose for those working in them: The Quarry, where he will be helping to extract and shape new building blocks for his neighborhood; the Mongers’ Caves, where he will help bring out and transport the coming and going merchandise; and the New Tunnel, which he is taking part in digging.

Which one was he meant to go to first?

Missy is obviously in the top 5% of Toilers.

Mongers' Cave sound like it'll be the most mentally taxing, so best to get it out of the way early.

Might as well head back home. From the map earlier their really didn’t seem like their was much to do in town excepts maybe go to the park but that’s in the opposite direction from Amanda’s place and you probably shouldn’t risk losing or breaking to case you just got. I mean you probably have enough problems with the whole “can’t remember shit” and the “ you apparently almost died”. Probably should add people have a hard time trusting you since you fucked up a simple delivery mission after have to be taught how to open a door on top of all that.

The Western Territories, officially the Federation of the Western Territories, is a country on the continent of Solomonia[1]. It comprises the entirety of the Western Peninsula[2] and the adjoining islands. Its sole land border, which is disputed[3], is with the Solomonian Union[4] to the east, across a mountainous desert region known as the Divide[5]. Formed in the aftermath of the Great War[6] by the colonies of several Borean[7] nations which were annexed during the conflict, it has developed a reputation for mystery and isolation, especially in the aftermath of its Civil War[8].

The computing industry[1] in the Western Territories[2] has developed largely independent of and parallel to that of the rest of the world, due to that country's isolation during the last half-century. Examples of Western-produced computers outside of the peninsula are rare. Known manufacturers include WMT, Sharpen, Intelligent, Aster and Holt. (Know more about this topic?

Go for a hug and another wild story - the time traveller's tale.

"Hi again, dear! Still looking good!"

On the topic of looks, assure her that look, you were trying to properly do the marriage proposal thing, but Riede didn't seem keen, so the whole affair must go through later, whoops haha - hm, come to think of it, did it need to be approved by one of the elders of the house? Gah, you can't remember their name. July? Ule? Someone like that. She should rest assured you'll have a spare certificate on hand for the time when it comes, just like you had the dress. Speaking of, is the fit okay? You do hope you got her measurements right, at least.

That said, you get the disapppintment at being left behind at the not-so-literal alter - utterly scandalous - and will work hard to make up for it and honor her and her house, once the world is no longer under threat of their COSMIC ULTRA NUKE that...

... oh right, she still doesn't know what the actual The Plan(tm) is? Or was the story she didn't care and was just in it for the gravity magic, like Rean? Man, that woman - her brother is decidedly more pleasant. Right?

Take a step back, apologize for rambling and say that given the MANY time shenanigans that've been going on the last few months of subjective time, you get the order of events confused a lot: you just knew you couldn't tell her anything in that first encounter - but that's really not your fault, because she told you - nagged, really - that you didn't!

Anyway, it's important she pay attention, because she'll tell you some of this later, before you get here. Admittedly, she also said you could've explained things better and that she was too upset about something at the time to really pay attention when you informed past-her, so um, let's reset, like a proper time mage should.

Gonna be hard to get married after your papers got burned. But hey, maybe something happened between her and her masters or whatever that can be of help. It would certainly be a good idea to first find out about her circumstances and then adapt to the situation.

In general you should act all lovingly towards "your dear"; be worried, tell her that you're sorry about what happened the last time, but that she shouldn't get any wrong impressions - the marriage wasn't official yet, so if she wants to call it off... Btw, she won't hurt you if you untie her, will she?

This mall is one of the few places where he's allowed to come. In part, because of the high ceiling clearance. In part... it sees alot of movement. I guess they want him to be seen as... normal.

And yet, plenty stores dont let him inside anyway.

At this point, Freya poured her heart. Yeah, she knew Locke. Apparently they met three months ago when Locke moved into the city with Falcone, and was about to leave in a few weeks. Things between the two seemed to be going nicely. When trying to talk about what happened the last time they met, she just broke into tears.

Between her yelling, her soft cries on my shoulder, and the scent of rewarmed coffee, the rescuers have no trouble finding us. Which bring us a problem... now what?

"Whatever you guys decide, I got your back."

It didnt dawn on me at the time, but... Freya is traumatized, Locke is unavailable -- permanently --, and Falcone got caught by Kirk and Kat, but they just locks and shuts up whenever someone asks them something uncomfortable. Me, Andrews and Dispatch have the most information on the situation, and whatever story we ended up making held a disproportionate amount of weight on the things that followed. In most possibilities, either Freya or Falcone would end in a bad spot.

So what did we end up telling them?

A full and unbiased report, obviously. The authorities can gather further evidence, and the situation is fragile enough that they're going to want to do a thorough investigation.

A corrupt handler brought to justice by the soldier he was paired with? That's fine, the public will appreciate that story. It will be seen as that soldiers can be trusted more than their handlers.

A quest using the Monster of the Week TTRPG system.
MotW Rulebooks (the pdfs are free, scroll down to find them): https://evilhat.com/product/monster-of-the-week/

You are a gumshoe in the big city, and you’ve experienced some modest success in your decade long career. Sure, most of the cases you get are rather boring, and you oftentimes wish something interesting would happen, but it’s a living. Little do you know how much you will regret that wish of yours.

It starts on a day like any other. The rain outside despite the presence of the blazing sun tells you that a client is about to walk in. But before that, for the sake of any outside observers...

What is your name?

You decide to set the alarms first. It would be a shame if some burglar were to sneak in while you check the kitchen, after all. The controls for the security system aren’t too far so you reach it quickly enough, setting the alarms to keep the place safe.

You’re suddenly hit with a wave of tiredness. You must be getting old, you used to stay up much later than this doing your job. Oh well, you only have one more thing to do before you can wish the Professor a good night and get yourself some well deserved rest.

“— all the paperwork I just went over.”

As we keep walking through the hallway, she hands me a huge stack of forms. This has to be at least sixty pages...

“Most of it you can just get done when you have time, but you’re going to want to get that medical stuff filled out as soon as possible, just in case.”

That’s concerning.

”Nothing you need to worry about, right now, but those are… pretty important to have on file.”

... That’s really concerning.

Your heart skips a beat. You shrug awkwardly. "Who doesn't have relatives who fought in the war?" You try to change the subject as quickly as possible.... You glance at your guide's leg. "Even you've got some war wounds, it seems."

>PIT seems amused. "What, this? There was just a little accident during a testing block a couple weeks ago. I've never been within 300 miles of a battlefield, and hopefully never will."

"I see... let's get back to the tour."

>"Of course. Come along, I'll take you to the core offices upstairs."

PIT weaves back through the exhibit, eventually leading you to a door that takes you further into the facility. Soon, you're loading into a small elevator.

>"Each major department has their own network of office spaces on the second floor," PIT explains as she starts typing a passcode into a keypad on the wall. "On the third floor are the department heads' offices, and ADAM's office, of course. We'll get to those in due time."

You watch as the engineer continues pressing keys. The passcode for this elevator is very, very long... "I know we haven't seen everything yet, but something's bothering me about your security," you remark.

>"Really?" PIT sounds genuinely curious. A green light flashes, and she presses the button for the second floor.

PIT leads the two of you through a door into a large office space. Researchers and interns are weaving through a vast sprawl of cubicles, desks and strange-looking computers. A door on the far wall seems to lead into another space with a similar layout.

>"These are the offices for the RF department," PIT says proudly. "I have several research teams that are using this space currently. I'd explain what they're working on, but then you wouldn't be allowed to leave."

She sounds like she's joking, but the image of an automated turret network is still fresh in your mind.... You decide not to press her on that.

>A young man in a lab coat looks up as you walk by his cubicle. "Ma'am, the ordnance department will be starting their scheduled testing block on 5B in twenty minutes," he says, ducking his head in a half-bow toward PIT. "They asked if you'd be attending, again... Should I still just send the interns?"

>PIT crosses her arms. "Of course! I'm not gracing those shitheels with my presence until NISHI shows up at my doorstep, gets on his hands and knees, and begs for forgiveness. Send those kids from the engineering college again."

>"Got it, ma'am."

>PIT turns back to you as her subordinate re-absorbs himself in his work. "Company politics," she sighs exasperatedly.

I know the feeling, you think to yourself...

this gets us some goodwill, but also gives us an easy in on seeing what the company is up to AND gives us access to a new leadership person to talk with. I don't think our new friend here has much to do with this on a gut level, so meeting another high-up would be useful.

ACT 2: The Garden of Creation

Wiki and last thread: https://tezakia.net/wiki/Lascivious_Labyrinth
Discussion thread: https://tezakia.net/kusaba/questdis/res/134609.html#134609

Somewhere deep in the most tenebrous wilderness, far from civilization and decency, it is said that a grand temple of some old forgotten god lay hidden. In those ancient rumor-shadowed halls, acts of unbridled hedonism and profane rituals were indulged in wild abandon, all to please the fertility god the structure was dedicated too. It is a place where instinct and impulse is acted upon without care.

There are also myths about a great treasure, hidden in the deepest catacombs, far below the surface, forever watched over by mighty guardians and fiendish traps. The corridors are said to twist and turn with a serpent-like suggestion, their writhing path hiding many dangers and foes, but if you stay vigilant they will lead you to your greatest desire. Many before you have been seduced by the myth and been enthralled by the ravenous desire…

…Of the Lascivious Labyrinth.

You’ve been through a lot recently. You still aren’t sure what to feel about all of it, but it’s mostly turned out OK. In fact, it could be said you are incredibly lucky.

You are alive, in space, living amongst real aliens! It’s the most space-opera future you could hope for, and not the depressing “no FTL” kind of future that hard-sci-fi teaches you to expect.

The Galaxy is littered with “Tech Artifacts”, many yet undiscovered. Artifacts are so advanced they’re basically magic, and you are the proud new owner of two: a CAULDRON & an ORB. You still don’t know much about the CAULDRON, but it sounds like no-one else does either. However, everyone agrees that useful & unique artifacts are a big deal.

At least the ORB was easy to figure out: use it to look at an object, & it spits out various statistics about that object.

1. A scuffed CATMARINE that you painted in BATTLE CAT SQUADRON colors. People say the Battle Cats are cheezy but they're a great beginner army.

2. You don't have your passport because it fell in the toilet and you have to dry it out in a bag of rice (it's an electronic passport).

3. Tell him the orb is your pet.

4. Elbow macaroni is a banned substance because it looks too much like dried tubeworms, which are also banned.

Only question 2 is actually important. The others can be ignored if you want.

1: What is Frankie's Favorite TAFB figurine?

2: What is a quick snippet of Frankie's backstory that explains why he doesn't have his passport? Some ideas I had were: [He doesn't have one yet. He's technically an undocumented alien. / He had one, but it was lost shortly before Cerendi & Co. rescued him. / He has one, but it's been damaged in an embarrassing incident.]

3: Do you want to try sneaking the ORB through/avoid drawing attention to it? Or do you want to just follow the rules & submit it for screening? Or something else?

The "bonus" question is just fishing for something funny or potentially plot-relevant on the ban list.
>>
No. 1065735 ID: 34713f

1: A yet-unpainted Shark Week chapter figurine - this one's a female brute unit, which is only slightly less jacked than the male version, and you find the contours of the skin-tight wetsuit to be somewhat intimidating just from a painting challenge standpoint.

2: It's funny, you're so fresh that you've technically yet to turn in the paperwork for a passport application. Hopefully, this guy is amiable to letting you do that here - odds go up if there's a separate guy they can dump us onto and move on from.

3: Declare it as an artifact, of course. No reason to do otherwise unless you're extremely paranoid of the local government. Maybe mention the omni-AI drone is keeping an eye on it just to be safe?

Bonus: Scuba gear; somebody had the bright idea of smuggling gaseous drugs in their no-permit-required oxygen tanks, and were only thwarted because one sharp-witted checkpoint agent realized that there weren't any suitable diving sites here nor on any of the planets one would obviously travel through here to reach.

1. An ACE PILOT figurine. It's ruggedly scarred as it's seen many a game and even an epic battle with a very bitey toddler.

2. It's shorn in half. You're carrying what's left of it, that is to say, only the photo and half the data strip (making it completely unreadable without specialized equipment). Therefore the passport can more-or-less prove it belongs to you, but doesn't say who you are.

3 Declare the ORB as artefact.
