>>1105875 Looks like a bigger leggy boy. Judging by how Kazooie is trembling, they're not so friendly to each other just because they're the same shape. It's a little hard to tell since it's far down the alley, but how big is the big guy?
Well, it didn't move, so just calmly and quietly retreat. It looks like there aren't any smaller voidlings up here. In future should keep out of areas they so avoid.
This is the continuation of the second chapter of the Chasing Shadows and Hunting Rats. Chapter 1 https://questden.org/kusaba/quest/res/1067335.html Chapter 2 part 1 https://questden.org/kusaba/quest/res/1082765.html Discussion Thread https://questden.org/kusaba/questdis/res/140583.html
>>1105842 sounds right
>>1105842 Beat me to it. As for you Bobbie, are you afraid of your brother? I figured that the suggestions are what you are currently thinking of.
For this update, there are no suggestions.
Hey now, she said only a couple questions, that’s one more than a couple. No offense, but that is something we need from people who work with us: honesty. If we are not on the same page with things, it can be detrimental. Not that we don’t want to answer her question, more that we need to to make sure she is true to her word so that in a dire situation, we have trust in each others words
We're just trying to have a place for our people. Its not a secret. You could have asked anyone here, instead of insisting on a private audience.
We have something on the order of a week until this possible patron for my dungeon arrives for his tour, but we're making steady progress. https://questden.org/wiki/Dungeoneer
>>1105838 He's on to something.
>>1105838 yes... yesssss...
>>1105838 >>1105839 >>1105847 For the record, I'm pro-hugs but anti-exploding. I hear exploding is bad for you.
how can it not be hugs? thats just beneficial for Deem's underlings
>>1105838 I'm game.
Jess the fox and Henry the wolf navigate their marriage and friendships. Updates every other day. Discussion thread: https://questden.org/kusaba/questdis/res/135483.html NSFW, contains BDSM and casual bigotry
Time to hit the Earth's natural bath. Go for a dip in the ocean. Will your fur paint last in the water?
Maybe try to keep the conversation going before trying any more horny shenanigans. Tell him that you aren't resentful of the fact that you aren't on testosterone for his sake. If it was a sticking point you really couldn't get past, then you would end things there and do it. It's a trade-off, like getting up a bit earlier to make a nice breakfast before work or paying more to have food delivered so that you don't have to drive and get it. You understand why he doesn't trust you though, because for a long time you thought the same about your gender identity. You thought you'd be okay with presenting as a woman, and you were for a while, but over time it ended up eating at you more than you expected. And no, you can't promise that will never happen with testosterone. Maybe a year from now, you'll want it more than you could have ever expected. You want to share a life with Henry though, and that's a deal-breaker for him. He's made a pretty strong commitment himself already, considering the missing digit. If you can promise anything, it's that you won't spring it on him, the way you did with your transition. If it starts to eat at you, you'll talk to him about it, and you'll try to find alternatives that'll soothe the desire.
You know, I wasn't like... Quietly Suffering back then, right? Like I wasn't pretending to be happy with you, I actually was- and am. If things aren't ideal then I just find a way to make them fun. It's just... It became so much at once that it became frustrating. Stressful. Un-fun. That's why I came clean when I did. I didn't want to pretend. I knew that would end up sucking for both of us. That said I don't mind compromising on some things... Even if I'm left with a couple holes in my soul, I'm confident in your ability to fill them.
Leave him with his thoughts, Tell him you’re going to sunbathe, if he wants to talk, you’ll listen, if he wants to silently rest and enjoy the sun with you, you’ll be happy with that too. Maybe he can get a good look at your swimsuit this way and notice something off, heehee
>>1105812 This, is guess. Might as well get some sun. Can I be real here with everyone for a second? This relationship is bound to end badly if this keeps up. I know Jess loves Henry, but is it really best for them if they are in this relationship trying to make it work if they are both miserable? Jess may be trying to be acting business as usual, but it’s clear Henry ain’t there. And after everything that’s been happening, he ain’t going to be okay for a while now. He misses the person he thought Jess was and is now bitter because he feels this “new” Jess stole them away from him. This will only make Jess feel bad and bound to hurt them even more in the future. So I know we are trying to rekindle something but dudes, at some point this ship may not be salvageable. Sorry for the rant, I am trying to think of what is best for both of them to be happy in the end.

>>1105858 Sounds good, but keep the spatial anomalies and time dilation to a minimum.
>>1105861 We saw him earlier today. He's been helping with the moon portal tests.
Weird is pretty much the norm for us, lol.
Honestly weird is good for this lot Just so long as it doesn't mess with Gabe's portals too much, that would be a deal breaker ...how DO the portals deal with space fuckery?
>>1105879 Well, Gabe can already open portals into pocket dimensions without any trouble, so I can't imagine there'd be that much interference.

>>1105733 Agreed, this should take priority. Perhaps we could fashion a skirt out of a quilt or the like?
Are there any carpets? Drapes?
>>1105753 And do they match?
>>1105736 Or we could requisition some material from our friendly denmother and armorer. They surely don't need all the clothes they're wearing.
A great idea. Demand the denmother's outfit to double as a skirt.
Clark IV, a world under fire. The Interstellar Transit Authority currently holds the planet under martial law. The planet has seen a turbulent past century, guerilla fighters have been holding it hard and there has been no progress in taking hold. Mercenary companies have been brought in to step in as a force multiplier, but they are beholden to no one but whoever pays the most. Corporate entities have also begun to set their eyes on the planet below. It is hell.
>>1105731 Good idea, combat situation can evolve very fast.
You launch the mech forward at another training unit, commanding it to use melee... partway through you cancel, but you get an error of feedback run through your spine. It doesn't know what to do, it tossed the ranged weapon aside, it is set on melee. What is it to do then?
Change course and go pick the ranged weapon back up.
Tell it to throw the bot at the others.
>>1105835 second that how was the feedback? painful?

Well it seemed like they were winning, but then instead of killing me he just tried to insult me and then left, so I think maybe they are losing.

>>1105846 Inner thoughts: Wait, the one bringing the doctor to her cell? That would mean… Murdusa? No, no that can’t be right. He may have worked for Happy, but he was not that smart. He was an idiot. Although I understand why he was pushing back so hard on us now. If he was working with Happy. This will have to be investigated further I am fine Doctor, merely a scratch. As it happens, it seems the now deceased Murdusa was working with Happy. I’ll find my way down to you and Hopkins momentarily. *Corax turns back to where he thinks Toothpick is* I can only spare you so long, Ana. If you are wanting some kind of immunity from further complications with the Tribunal, I am already looking into the matter. But I must say, the man you just killed, I don’t believe he was the true Happy. Merely someone wearing the mask.
The snake guy, eh? So Happy had infiltrators that high up, surely he has escaped by now. So what's the prognosis Doc? Is this guy gonna make it?
First time doing a quest, bear with me if I mess up. :)
...moons? But there were f-... ...you know what? Itll keep. Im not disturbing such well earned rest. Especially when youre so damn adorable curled up like that. Whole new world out there slinky. Dream of open spaces, gentle breezes and sweet song. (Thank you. Its been brilliant and so were you. Hell of a good time.)
Thank god, I found a good online tool for quickly double checking my assumptions. Translation of white text: So, what'd you think? didn't think it wasn't possible, did you? I win the bet then?
She can't climb ropes cause of her short lil weasel arms xD
Fox: What the heck took a bite out of that moon, and why didn't the arms collapse into itself under their own weight into the middle? Magic is supposed to be a sometimes-exception to physics artificially laid on top of the physics baseline, not utterly suspend them in a large scale for no reason, ugh. I'll do my flirting and talking your ear off when you wake up and have done your morning routine and have had breakfast and stuff, take some you-time for now.

>"...pardon me, but are you Finesse seng Barr?"
Barr was her father's name, wasn't it? Ask if there's a problem.
>>1105841 Ask only that he shares the name of the cad at some point. So you can treat him accordingly if ever you happen upon hi- >>1105845 -... Huh. This is going to be interesting. A loquacious fellow like this will have tales to tell and ive always been interested in finesse's lineage. Lets see how this goes.
I think we're about to learn how old Finesse is Also can we have a quick mental inventory of anything we could gift back to this guy? If he went through all that trouble to return a family heirloom we are bit obliged to give a reciprocal gift.
>>1105845 This is the first time he's stopped smiling since he got here.
You go by Vex. You are an ARMS DEALER by trade and you've been at this for a couple of years now. At the moment, you're having a smoke to try and calm down the adrenaline rush from almost (successfully) being SET UP. R18. nsfw/gore/body horror potential. heavy themes including self harm may be explored (but not explicitly). Toxic Yuri Guaranteed.
You figure that if they were here to kill you they would've made the jump by now. Rounding the corner into the closest alley, you wait, your senses strained to hear muffled footsteps approach at an even, patient pace. You almost want to yell at them to hurry it up. Eventually, a figure comes into view, a taller, slightly lankier wolf in jorts and a rolled up button up that's just barely doing its job. He stops once he sees you in the corner of his eye, paws pivoting as he turns to face you. You don't see.. full recognition in his eyes... but he seems to know something. You frown under the mask, it's unmistakable that this is one of the Bites. But how would he know of you or even to follow... "Hey," he drawls out, voice surprisingly young, almost teenage-like, "You got a smoke?" You blink at him. He slouches as he stares at you with an odd air. He couldn't have seen you at the party. They would've barred him from entry. A coincidence? Couldn't be... The gears turn. You realize you're taking too long to respond, the fatigue starting to catch up. You shrug your shoulders, feeling the weight of Eiko's gun from the pull of your jacket, trying to figure his angle, "Yeah, here." You reach into your pocket for the smokes.
A claw lashes through the air. You backstep quickly, the wild swipe missing your chest but tears at your jacket, fabric straining then ribboning. A heavy ring shatters the air from Eiko's gun landing and skidding, your inventory cards flying out after and scattering across the alley floor. Your blood runs hot at the sight. Murderous. The wolf reels back, quickly creating distance. "Whew, real fast cat," his head turns this way and that at the floor in confusion, "The fuck, did you rob a casino?" You don't respond, stancing up, your fists tight as you hold them up in a boxer's stance. He takes another step back, eyes narrowing at the gun then back to you, "That's one of ours," his ears fold back with a snarl, "What else did you take?" You grit your teeth, "What's your goddamn problem?"
Dooodge!
He shifts his weight, "You smell like a wolf, but you ain't a wolf. And I've never seen you around before. You get me?" A real shoot first asshole here. You almost laugh. "You ever heard of friends?" His arm stretches out, cutting off the exit, "You're no friend of mine. Give me what you got." Your knife sheathed to your left arm waits for your hand. The spell cards in your left side are also untouched. Eiko's gun's across the floor. The only card face up is the ring. What do you aim for?
Let's do this quick and dirty. Pull out your knife in reverse grip then lunge for an obvious but difficult to dodge swipe at his mid section. Instead of striking for the midsection though, swing up towards the incoming block or counterattack while activating the plasma-cutter function. He won't be needing that hand soon anyway.
Early autumn is pleasant in Cedar Ridge. Summer's hottest days are behind you and the shade of the Douglas fir trees that blanket the town keep the underbrush cool. North of the lake that divides the town are sets of woods. Interrupted only by mud roads and storm drains that rarely see use outside of the rainy season. This grove is only a mile from the town's one high school. Frequented by teens and alcoholics alike for bonfire parties that leaves the smell of ash in the air. This far east into Oregon the breeze is warm and sluggish, trapped in by mountain ranges. From where you stand you can hear when the occasional truck passes through Cedar Ridge's main road. Barely. It helps you keep your facing when you're unsure which way is home. You are in the north in the outskirts of town.
>>1105771 On the plus side, you have the BEST excuse ever.
You try to leave, maybe they're still waiting for you, but Nathan holds you back with his sweaty hand. You smack it away before he can grab you again. "I'll let you and your friend go, if you promise me you didn't touch anything." He's still mad about the arm as if there isn't a ghost hanging out over here. "I'm serious Riley." All things considered it's a kind offer from a guy whose nuts you kicked. Bright car lights sting your eyes, looks like company's on the way. Better to get out of here before more losers show up.
>>1105774 Yeah you totally promise you didn't poke the arm.
>>1105774 Promiseeedidntthankyoubyenow Then abscond before whoever that is in the car has your features etched into their memory.
Pinky promise! Wait, do you have pinkies?
A brief prequel to Lazy Fairy where nothing important happens. Lazy Wiki: https://questden.org/wiki/Lazy_Fairy Art & Writing by Donut: https://questden.org/wiki/Donut
>>1105741 1: trust Landi to do that much. 2: find them, and take Ellie along.
1) I'm sure that will sort itself out 2) Ellie needs to show you where they are or this will take all night.
1. Leave the panties to Landis! It rhymes so it must be correct! 2. Bring Ellie to look for her undies. Does she even know where she put them though? Still, can’t leave her alone for too long, cuz bodyguard work!
1: That's a concern for sober Ellie, whose dignity is not your priority. You're only tasked with keeping her safe for the party, she's on her own afterwards. Besides, with all of Rocio's undies around the place, even if someone else finds hers they'll probably just get lumped in with them. 2: This should hopefully be easy enough. Go seek them out with Ellie.
>>1105741 1. For some reason i think landi has a talent for finding and acquiring panties. Shes got this. 2. They need to be found. See if you can convince her to use her fading but still present foxy senses to help hunt her discarded items. Mainly so you can keep an eye on her. See ifbyou can get her to give everyone a little goodbye "awoo". I know, foxes arent howlers, but itd be adorable and who knows what the fox really says?
Flockload of Problems II Part I: >>/questarch/1066631 Discussion: >>/questdis/139947 NSFW because nudity and probably other things, 18+, etc. etc. Continued apologies to Lagotrope, Slinko, Typo and Roaway.
Well being a leader does mean dealing with team drama… so grab your flocklet in a hug, sit down in a comfortable position and hope to god whatever revelations she gives you are less heavy than that of a shapeless lord.
Some perspective from the mistakes of individuals with less responsibilities might help frame what you learned.
>>1102635 Admittedly, she seems to still be trapped. I think Vi.al sent her away because he couldn't prove that she didn't have directives with her lord still alive. Either he's learned from this or it tells you more about the kind of lord he is to other Shapeless than his own with what he said. As for Li.ni.si, ask her to go slow with it, don't see why breaking down over it would be a bad thing right now, this is the time to rest. But also that doesn't mean she will get answers. I think you are going to want to grab her and put her somewhere first, however.
>>1102615 "i keep getting substrate, substrate adjacent, or substrate parallel creatures joining my dream scape randomly sometimes and as this is a space where mindes come in contact stuff can get trippy..... they seem to be impressed with my sand if anything"

I'm technically not home right now so this is more of a mental entry. My class all went on a trip to the Aelor homeland and uh... We got all split up. A few of us made our way to a seemingly abandoned city and we found Tessa in a well. We also found a giant mysterious monolith! That was guarded by a dragon. Oh and that dragon is now staring at me.
>>1105702 Hey Tali, look behind you real quick?
Maybe they like cool rocks? Or, hot rocks?
>>1105702 Presumably, magma. Also i think Fael is right behind you, might want to prepare the apology for riding another dragon.
Well I suppose the apology can be something like "I didn't have any choice. Now I do, and I choose you." Start by asking to be let down, before the confrontation starts.
Oh oh oh and you can give her that fire crystal!

"..." "..." "S-Skye...?" The room grew even colder at the sight of the bot, after so many years she looks... Almost untouched, barely a scratch on her frame. Isen doesnt move, he doesn't dare to, unsure of what he's afraid of more. "I-Isen...?" She asks quietly, her voice gentle yet full of terror "S-Skye... I c-cant believe you're okay...!" Isen's voice shifts, joyous yet still just as nervous, Skye's expression softening as she calms, "What... What happened to you, Isen..?" He pauses, thinking for a moment on how to answer such a sensitive question... "I... I died, I don't know what happened after, but I just know I died and woke up in the dark..."
>>1105650 Ask if she's alright, and what's with the angry robot out there.
"Sooo, how have you been?"
What happened to you? What didn't happen to her! She has no malfunction lights in her eyes at all! How did she escape Xeno? Zeta must have defended her!
What do the notes say? Also is that a picture frame or just a badly framed window?

Hmm... Whatever you end up deciding to do, it needs to be done to the one on the left first. She's *probably* just a huntress who specializes in either the javelin or the sling, given her uneven musculature. If that's the case she's the less dangerous one. HOWEVER! Any female Gormoamhi wearing teeth or bones *could* be a "woman magic" user. Even though the chances of that are low, the threat of one is so great no chances should be taken.
>>1105201 oh that's a good point, maybe we could ask one of our girls if she's a witch, and if so, break her first?

>>1105685 "As rupaglakas posi mosi"
You followed a distant sound of bells to find your way here through freezing fog. That mist is gone, and the path with it. The "mayor's" face is porcelain. Limbs, elegant clockwork. "Town square" is bare stone around a pillar of orichalcum-edged jade, seven yards high and two or three thick. Little else but the border of churning primordial chaos, a hundred yards away in every direction but down. Beside the sacred monument, stairs - presumably to some cellar or storm shelter - and a granite lectern holding a closed folio. Purple leather, fitted with brass. No visible title.
Seven-segment door rings like a bell. There's definitely open space behind it. People, too, whispering in a language you don't recognize... or possibly the yapping of small dogs.
>>1104585 "Well, the second time is the charm." She will say in her native tongue before grabbing the tops of the door in order to brace herself. She swings up as wide as possible before launching a bright golden kick straight up through the door, aiming to make a hole big enough for herself. Mechanically: Full Excellency Iron Fist Sledgehammer Punch kick with the Fierce Blow called shot. 16+2+3+ stunt dice with a -1 external penalty for +12L damage ×2

There's a shriek as layers of corroded metal scrape past each other. Flying kick carries you straight through the space where the door was a moment earlier, over the heads of half a dozen racoon-sized humanoids in what looks like lamellar armor. One of them has climbed partway up the wall and is fiddling with some recessed mechanism, the other five have spears ready.
Lamentations follows the giant woman down the step after telling her companion to stay up and not wander off, the basement might not be clear of danger but unlikely to be worst than the surroundings. Before the band of little people can start a brawl, still with her arms folded in front of her and bending forward, Lamentations ask them in Old Realm "Are you all sure you want to start a fight with that one? She looks like she's gonna do to you the same as the door and you've half way figured it out. Would be a shame if it took a couple of you to get to the rest of the way there."

Hold on a sec... The broken headlight shards were right in front of his car where they should be... But this all happened days ago? Has this guy not gone home at all? Even if he parks in the same spot every day, it would be weird to get it perfect on the done like that. Weirder still that the debris hasn't been agitated at all in the days since despite being a public space. Ask if he's gone home at all since then. Beyond that, sounds like the girl got pepper sprayed, so acquire eye protection before heading down. Ask Gladii if she can break into the sheriff's trunk. A shotgun would be nice. Don't forget to check out the bathroom before diving down the spooky hole.
Uh... what's that on David's shirt? That wasn't there before...
>>1105639 Good eye. Either he's anomalous or... Oh crap. I hope its not a sighting dot for some weapon...
Uhhhh punch him in the targeting reticle, enough to knock him over?? Both hindering a possible threat and moving him out of the way of a possible attack. Maybe shout "GET DOWN" at the same time, for a head start on why you punched him.
...And or follow up with "April Fools!"
Ciarán, my brother, intends to summon the soul-devouring Airceacháin to start a war. It was my mother’s last wish that I, Ráichéalín Uí Liatháin, return from exile to end his madness.

It’s been so long since I’ve been with trustworthy people I can depend on. I thank you all, let’s do this.
Tell Dotti she needs to hide her anger for now. If we are to fight, it needs to be a surprise, because we can't win a head-on battle.
"I've spent a long time pretending to be better than everyone else. It was wrong. They were wrong, and they're going to destroy so much just to prove themselves right. It's time to bring them to justice."
"I couldn't ask for a better team. We can do this. We will do this!"
"Just in case anything happens i want you all to know that i shall always regard you as... people... i met." Then give it a couple of seconds for them to read the expression on your face. They'll know what they realy mean to you ...and the joke may break the tension. Humour. Great for morale.
