...Martin, you cannot make someone marry you. That's wrong, in all sorts of ways.

And even if your church or kingdom is foolish enough to force it, there's no way to make someone feel the way you want them to. I'm sorry, but it's one of the great tragedies of life, that sometimes love goes unrequited.

>it's my right... I burned for you... Twice!
>You would go to the end of the earth to be married with the one you love, why can't I!?
And man or woman, you never have a right to a person. No matter what you've done or endured, that is not your choice to make.

And for heaven's sake, you're her knight. Isn't it your duty to honor and obey your princess, not to make demands of her? And didn't your training cover basic chivalry and honor? The lady said no.

>>508255
this. even if your society endorses this sort of thought it is wrong.

>>508250
You're certainly trying hard to pull off the male bravado, not to mention the thickheaded stereotype. What are you going to do, Martin, clock her over the head and drag her back to your cave? It's all fine and noble that you've done great deads to try to win her hand, but in the end it's her hand, and her choice. You've fought for rights and opportunities that would have been taken from you; would you begrudge her the same?

>>508259
>deads
I have no idea how I managed that typo.
*deeds*, darnit.

(Eadoo)-() means telepathically
Well he might be a little odd but I've learn the best way to deal with most crazies is to nod and say as little as passable as long as they aren't bothering or harming anyone around them. Also on that note our group now consist of a stolen princess, a gnoll monk, a hermaphrodite kobolt that is now infused with a lucky pin, and a magical talking knife that can possess any body both living or dead, and out of all of these Martin is the odd one in our group... I really don't know how to take that, how about you?

(Willaim)
What's your take on all of this?

(Roza)
So has Martin or Olivia been at this sort of thing for awhile or did s/he just drop this bombshell on you right here and now?

Martin I know you have feelings for Roza but if you try and force those feelings on her it will on prove to drive her further away form you and besides she does love you but you heard her, she loves you as family so marrying you would be like incest to her... um, is marrying inside the family normal for royalty around here, cause I know in some places it is normal for royalty to marry inside of the family. Something about keeping the bloodlines pure or something along those lines.

As much as Id love to see you live happily ever after and have no kids because you're lesbians. You can't force someone to love you. Especially if you love them

Eadoo - Eum... I... I don't know... I suppose it's wrong of him. But he does love you... Ehh...

Hey guess what?! No rolling nothing on this! *clap clap clap*

>If Roz is the only royal remaining, any marriage she'll be in would have to produce an heir to the throne. So, unless that burn lets you get women pregnant or you find the rest of the royals, she's gonna have to have marry someone else.

Eadoo - *I don't know either, Martin's probably the most normal of us all, but he's so distant from reality... Then again I'm a kobold bent on being king.*

>What's your take on all of this?
William - *I'm not picking sides... nobles have noble problems peasants have peasant problems... so long as no one get's raped I wont intervene.*

>So has Martin or Olivia been at this sort of thing for awhile or did s/he just drop this bombshell on you right here and now?
Roza - *I was a fool to not see this... A fool! the way she'd smile and greet me everyday and night... oh and to think I promised to marry her when we were children... But I was just a kid, I didn't mean it! ... *sigh* I even helped her become a "man" ... It's all my fault*

>Do you stay with the group or follow Martin?<

follow martin
he might need some help or at lest someone to talk to

>>508404
Yeap. Marts could probably use some company.

Go hang out with martin. Avoid seducing him by accident. Unless it furthers our goals of course.

martin hey, look, eadoo has a real one. by magic. maybe we can find a magic thing to really change you. the feels like family thing though. that s deep seated stuff. it's a mental trick your brain does to itself to make sure you don't get attracted to family member. it kicks in when you are young and affects anyone you are near a lot. only ay past it is to slowly chip away at it. courting and such. but you need to get changed first.

>>508410
I'm not sure we should be suggesting going out and trying to use magic to change. He's already down the change thyself road quite a bit, and it hasn't worked.

What he needs is compassion, and mature coming to terms with rejection. Not a wacky quest to fix everything.

>>508403
Stay with the group; we just managed to get them back together and save Roza, this is no time to run off and abandon them. Martin needs some time to cool off.

lets ask Martin if he wants us to come with him, you know give him a choice and all that. If not then we stay with the group and see if anyone knows how everyone is doing after our encounter that shall never be mentioned about again. If he doesn't mind us coming with him, try and see if we can't help him out in some way

Follow Martin. He just got his heart broken. He needs a shoulder to cry on.

rolled 53 = 53

---

>>508403
We should follow Martin.

Roza: There is magic to change a person's gender. Rather than considering Martin/Olivia as-is, consider how you would feel if we found a way to provide a more complete gender change. How would you feel about romancing somebody with a body like, say, Eadoo? [Rolling Eadoo seduction check! Possible follower bonus?]

Martin: You understand that Roza does love you, of course. She may not think of you as a bedmate, but it's obvious to everybody she wants you by her side.
For now, release your hope for physical intimacy and relish what you have. Her feelings may eventually change, but clinging to that hope will only serve to bring you both pain.

We'll keep an eye out for a way to reshape your body to fit your mind, and we'll try to nurture her feelings, but right now she needs her best friend.

Go with Martin, we can bring up finding the witch of chaos. She might be able to help, and by help I mean we trade her something for it. Fetching a rare item, killing something, blah blah blah. You might be able to actually return to Roza as a man she could marry.

But this is a witch of CHAOS we are talking about, if the price seems too good to be true, it probably is. Or if it is straight up too high, again, not worth it.

*bangs head on the bark of the tree over and over*
Martin - Here to antigonize me gatling?

>ask Martin if he wants us to come with him

Martin - *sigh* I've never been so broken, and yet I can't fight it. It's wrong of me to try to force her heart. I love Rozalin, I'd never violate her...
But it's unfair that life would be so cruel. Isn't it basically written that we'd live happily ever after?! *sigh* Still... A sad end is a sad end. *martin stands up* And I would of done it all the same! Knowing that she'd say no, knowing that she'd refuse me, I'd throw myself to her rescue! And I'd do it again, even now! Capture her by a thousand monsters, a thousand bandits and insurgents! I'd risk my life a thousand thousand times over to save her each time!
And I'll love Rozalin! Till my dieing breath I will! I always have. I gave everything for her, I changed my life, my Ego, my name! But I can't change her heart... I loved her since I was a girl... Since the moment Our eyes meet, my heart was her's... I'm doomed to die alone... But I'll never regret it, *Martin slides back down the trunk* because I love her...

>>508630
>>508410
Martin - Heh... a real penis... to be a man physically, not just inside... But let's face the music... It's not about penises and babies... Rozalin doesn't love me. I was a fool to think that becoming a dashing rogue and a charming knight, that saving her life in a daring risk would make her fall head over heels in love~ ... What a fool... *he lowers his hat covering his face* It's just not meant to be...

I am truly sorry Ser Martin. I wish I had words of comfort. Mayhap simple company will do?

She still views you as a childhood friend, a sister to her. It might blossom forth someday, but currently you just have to have simple hope. All you can really do.

Continue your duties, continue for your love, even if she does not reciprocate.

>Isn't it basically written that we'd live happily ever after?
...no, I'm sorry, it isn't. I wish the world was such that love always found a way, but sometimes, tragically, it goes reciprocated.

All you can do is try to heal, and move on. Lean on what friends you have. And well, if all you can do for her is to be there for her, and protect her? Then do so. There are worse fates.

You have our sympathy, and compassion.

>Here to antagonize me?
We would never! ...well, unless the subject was something petty enough. Or you were a foe.

it's perception. she didn't see a knight in shining armor, but a family member coming to save her. and family members save each other because they do love each other, just not that way. it's complicated and involves brain science. but basically there is a anti-incest system in your head that makes you think anyone you see often enough as a kid, as a family member, and thus off the table.

Love takes time. If you want to win her heart you have to put time into it and try to spend time with her as the new you.

Maybe nothing will come of it but you will be there to protect her at least.

>>508768
You're not the only one in pain right now, Martin. Roza can't give you what you want, and that's hurting her. You have a very close bond, which has a value that can't be overstated.

I expect she'll soon start worrying that her rejection will lead to a rift between the two of you, and once the thought occurs to her it'll continue to bother her. Best to return before then, and show her that lover or not you'll still stay by her side.

we're not here to antagonize you we're just here to see how you're holding up. You did help us try and save Roza after all so we figured we would try and help you out now if even just a little.

As for the whole Roza thing, well you did come on a little strong and truth be told that marriage thing you did just kinda pull out of no where, so if you do try and woo Roza again in the future my advice would be to take things a little slower. And you shouldn't give up right now just because of this one little (and kinda awkward) setback. I mean from what we have seen, baring the part where you through us into our good friend Eadoo, you're a damn fine knight and when we told Roza that it was you coming to save her she went from scared and miserable to happy and full of hope the moment we dropped your name to her so know she at least cares for you. And who knows what the future may or may not bring the only way to find out is to never give up and face it head on.

>>508805
Martin - *sigh* What a troublesome ordeal... And what a knight I turned out to be~ I'll return to her side and offer my best comfot. But... Give me a moment... I'm not presentable... *Martin washes his face with a hand full of snow. melting against his warm cheeks*

>After a moment he returns to the camp. the fire roars dimly in the dark. Everyone but Eadoo is asleep. He waves as Martin approaches... Martin sits near Princess Rozalin waking her up gently.

Martin - Oh no no... go back to sleep princess...

Roza - Martin... I... I'm sorry...

Martin - it's okay... *he kisses her on the forehead* rest now... we'll talk when you're ready... I'll always be there for you, no matter what...

>Roza smiles sincerely, expressed by her massive brows. She snuggles against Martin's lap and quickly goes back to sleep...

Eadoo - I'm hitting the hay. Keep and eye out okay Gatling?

>Somemore time passes as martin just smiles and stares at his lovely sleep...

Roza - ZZZZzzzzzZZZZZzzzzzZZZZZzzzz!!!

Martin - How very unladylike... It's like music to me though... The baseline to my ultimate composition...
You're a magic weapon... Aren't you? My late master loved magic. He told me endlessly about this magic sword, Durendala, he fought with... you can read minds, and speak into them... can you read dreams? If you look into rozalin's mind now... Will you see her dream? C-could you... Tell me what's in her head?

Well... we can talk to minds. Reading minds implies getting at stuff that you're not trying to tell us. Not sure we can do that, but I suppose we haven't tried.

[Dreavesdrop?]

will so far the only thing we can do right now (at least with messing with other people's heads) is just talk to them telepathically. If we can do that other stuff nobody told us we could and if not (which most likely is the case) maybe somewhere down the line when we get a little stronger. I mean we can give it a try, after all nothing ventured nothing gained right? Just keep watch for us just incase something big and mean comes by while we're distracted doing this.

[Try and see Roza's dreams]

think we are a part of a larger weapon though. a great sword that broke into shards and someone stuck a handle to one of them. and that's us.

anyway we can try, no promises

[dream-i-fy]

>>508927
Listen in if we can, but don't share any but the most general observations with Martin. We don't want to violate her privacy.

>>508927
We might be capable of that, but even we are we couldn't share our findings with you without serious cause.
The mind is the last bastion of privacy. Violating its sanctity is not to be taken lightly.

We'll look into her dreams for you but understand that we wont try to influence her. and we wont tell what she's dreaming unless it's really important or really unimportant.

She's... conflicted and upset. I think it's eating her up inside she can't give you what you want. She really does care for you.

this dream isn't on repeat is it? cause if it is I say we try and intervene next time, also does anyone else think that dream martian's shadow looks like the grime reaper a little?

As for what to tell martin... Well it looks like the last few days haven't been to kind to her if her dreams are anything to go by.

If we got time lets check out Eadoo's dream next and see how badly he's falling apart, then try the squire just cause, and end with William as for him being a monk I'm not sure if we could pull a dreamscape off or not.

Pleasant dreams Roz. Sleep well!

That's right. You Gat a good Knife. :V

Hang around just long enough to make sure this doesn't turn into a slasher nightmare, then it's time to pull back and talk to Martin.

She's... conflicted and upset. I think it hurts her she can't give you what you want. You saved her from a nightmare, though.

Then do the mental rounds while we wait for the night to pass, I guess. Individual Knife personalities can sleep in shifts so there's always some of us on watch.

ok lets sait and see if we helped fix this dream then we can tell martin we think Roza will be fine with a little rest. Then lets see what everyone else is dream of

Shenzi - You can't trust her and you know it... It's bound to happen again~

Will - Shut up shut up!

Shenzi - And again and again and again~ That's what happens to worthless shit! ohh.. but enough about that~ let's just enjoy this moment...

Will - Erk! ah... S-stop... You're killing me!!

Geeze. Rape dreams, abuse, and the fear of more.

Hmm. My first instinct would be to just give him a knife too, but stabbing dream-bitch probably crosses his geas against killing.

Just banish the Shenzi-echo (...with the echo of the song that did so in the first place :V). William's been a temple for gods, he doesn't need to house foul spirits of suffering and fear.

Leave a knife in her place. A symbol of his new covenant. Eadoo isn't going to betray him like that- and neither are we.

ok so now we have to kill William's demon... so how do we want to do this one, have Eadoo show up and kill the bitch in some form somewhat similar to the bar 'fight' and try and help William, try and find a way to empower William to beat the bitch himself, or something else? Cause I feel the best bet would be empower William with some of his old monk powers (this is a dream after all) and have him beat the shit out of that bitch to kind of prove to himself that he isn't helpless.

>the monkey vanishes in his mirror. leaving William in darkness alone. William cries, huddled up and alone.

Saru is a trickster, you know well his words are twisted to suit his desires.
More importantly, why does he continue to torment you? By my understanding, your right is forever ruined, your body weakened by your time spent unconscious. Is this the echo of him from the past, something you view as the greatest failure? Because if it is him in person, he sees reason to kick you when you are down...I suspect that for whatever reason, he still fears you, should you ever find a way to restore yourself to your prime.

Man, your brother is a jerk.

Seriously though, Will, you're going to be all right. We're not exactly cool with the ideas of slavery or rape. If it weren't for your magic gotta-have-a-master deal, we would have freed you already.

And if our word isn't good enough after all you've been through? We'll, we're telepathic. We've got even more reason than most people to avoid putting you through horrible torture. And Eadoo is trying to be a good leader! That means taking care of her people. And besides, she's more than capable of finding willing bed partners.

C'mon, clear your mind and think calmly and rationally. Have some faith. You're a monk, this is totally your thing.

William, you're not weak. There is no if, and, or but, YOU are NOT weak. So you fucked up everyone does at some point and while it is true that some fuck ups are bigger then others what point is there to crying over them. The best thing you can do is learn from your past mistakes to better prepare yourself for the future to make sure they never happen again. You can't change the past but you can make damn sure the future can and will be something you where proud to have lend a hand in creating, even if it isn't perfect, even if it has flaws, If you keep working for it then one day it could become reality but if you give up on your dreams all you are left with are your nightmares.

William, We and we as in us Gatling, Eadoo, and everyone else don't see you as a servant or slave. We don't see ourselves as your betters or masters. We see you as a friend, a friend in need who needs someone to help them overcome a great inner demon, at least until you can walk on your own once more. We will not abandon you, we will not use you, we will stand by your side through think and thin just as we know you will do the same for us for we are your allies, we are a team, because we are friends so don't think you're alone any more because we are here to help you now, through your highs and lows we all will be there to help you.

Willy, you're stronger than anyone we know, and we know people inside and out. You need to keep your head high and remeber that you can do anything! You're not a slave and you're not our toy. We're your friend willy.
>make the dream a hill side with pink cherry blossoms everywhere, play some aisian string instrument and have eadoo meditating next to William. Then log out and check in on Rolland.

>>511871
Probably best NOT to add dream phantoms of Eadoo and then book it. If the dream goes bad again that could be... awkward.

Helping people's dreams is fun and all, but these are their demons. We can't fix these people, and it's rude to mess with them without their permission.

>>511950
I thought that we where more or less just giving them a means to face there demons themselves. I mean with Roza we didn't really do anything other then give her a knife to defend herself with, I just figured we where trying to get William here to realize he isn't alone and give him the strength to stand on his own two feet and let him know if he should stumble we'll be right there to help him from falling. After all why face things alone when there are others willing to stand by you in your time of need.

>>511857
Focus, William.
Meditate, and bring your mind back into balance.

>William wakes up slowly and sit up...

Will - that dream again... I should meditate... clear my mind...

>ease drop some more, talk or sleep<

woops... [small] not [s] my bad

I think we're done with dreams. Back to watching for danger.

lets talk to will. don't mention we where in his dream just ask if he is alright. If he ask why we are asking just say we saw him wake up and wanted to see if he was alright. If he does ask if we where dream hoping however lets just admit it and not beat around the bush. Once we are sure will is ok then lets hit the last two people in the group. Martin and his squire.

Maybe we'll throw some more reassuring words his way via telepathy in the morning. In the meantime, let him meditate and clear his head.

Keep watch, and have the various knife-voices sleep in shifts so there's always someone on watch. (Assuming that whatever we are even needs to sleep).

Will - oh... yeah, I'm fine... Just had a bad dream. I have one everynight and can't get a moments rest after... I can never remember it though... I'm going to meditate until sun rise. thanks~ You can go to sleep if you like. I'll keep guard.

>William closes his eyes and begins to meditate.

>Once we are sure will is ok then lets hit the last two people in the group. Martin and his squire.

>you plunge into Rolands dreams.

Roland - Still am I not worthy Durendana? Have I not proven myself?

Durendana - You have indeed, you've made yourself into a true hero~

Roland - Then why can't I pull your blade from the water? What else must I prove?

Durendana - Your cause is not just.

Roland - I am at the service of my uncle. The Emperor! There can be no cause more righteous!

Durendana - The truth of things are changing fair knight... You will have to find a new cause. When the time is right, you will be the holy light of mankind... I see it in the water...

Roland - When the time is right... *sigh* I don't understand...

Durendana - You will in due time.

Roland - Well while we wait, perhaps this dream should bare a happy ending~?

Durendana - We are are not alone...

Roland - What? *looking around*

Durendana - I sense a spy Lord Roland. Beware of yourself. *she vanishes into the water*

Roland - Durendana! ... Show yourself spy! Pilfering scoundrel!! You'll taste my blade as soon as I find you!!

"Spy" implies an ill intent. We meant only to observe, and to offer support, if necessary. You are one of few we have seen this night fortunate enough to enjoy pleasant dreams, and the first to notice our intrusion.

If our presence bothers you, we will depart. We did not wish to interrupt, nor do we have any wish to fight you.

>I am at the service of my uncle. The Emperor! There can be no cause more righteous!
To serve a leader faithfully is honorable. But loyalty, in and of itself, is not just.

We're not spies, we're voyeurs! There's a difference!

Future King Aurthur? This scene has it written all over the place, lady of the lake, sword in the lake, knight soon to be great...Hrrrm, this boy might be more important than we originally thought
Our apologies. We were patrolling the dreams of our companions, having just discovered this ability. Yours is the second good dream we've encountered.

relax kid, we're not here to fight you. Truth be told we just found out a new ability we have and have been taking it threw on a test run.

Oh and if you want my advice on the sword thing, give it time. After is't there a saying 'good things come to those who wait'. Nobody becomes great over night but I'm sure you can make this dream a reality one day kid.

besides, we are a blade, telling us to taste another blade could be seen as a come on.

anyway simple advice, serve the empire not the emperor, not saying he isn't a great guy, probably is, but hypothetical time, the emperor orders you to kill someone innocent. do you kill them to prove your loyalty, or free them for justice?

>>512289
You are quite observant, young one.
Be at ease; we are simply passing through on our hunt for nightmares.

We should offer a bit of advice after stating why we are here.

Serving a king does not make a cause just, as heretical as that sounds. True justice and righteousness surpasses all creeds and castes. You appear to be in good hands with the lady. Sorry for the intrusion.

we should just sneak out silently and look into Martins dream and then pass on to the next day.

gonna update soon

Roland - spy or not you're intruding!! you... you're a deamon! I can feel it in you... foul reached monsters!! You... you're here to corrupt! you're... In... My dreams... *panting and grunting* This... Is... My... Special place!! YOU HAVE NO RIGHT TO ENTER!!! O-only Durendana Is Allowed!! ... *panting* ... get out... Get out! GET OUT!! get out! get out! get out! get out! get out! get out! get out! get out! get out! get out! get out! get out! get out! get out!! get out!!! GET OUT!!!

>You are Expulsed from Roland's dreams...

>_ _ _

Well, in all fairness, he is within his rights to be outraged by a non-consentual mental intrusion.

...although from the manic severity of his reaction, and the paranoia about corruption, we may well have to worry about his stability.

meh oh well, want to hit martian next since he is the only one left or just keep watch till morning? Cause I kinda want to see how well he is holding up.

Will have to apologize for that later and keep a eye on him. His dreams feel like someone else was interfering before we got there.

>>513597
And don't forget the sexual under/overtones about this being his "special place" and "only Durendana is allowed".

I don't think we should be apologizing. Guy thinks this is his story AND he's being manipulated by an outside force. He's going to be trouble in the future and I think we should confront him when he wakes up.

Alright fine geez bro, we're goin' no need to get yer knackers in a twist..

Martin - Mmnn... this is good... *munch munch* yes.... mmmmn... pink sauce is great with the chicken... kinda... kinda fruity... I miss asian food... Wish I could eat it more often...

>Martin continues to eat in the dull white empty.

well huh, apparently not everyone has weird dreams, one way or the other. notice they are a bit more manly in here, guessing it's their mental self image.

You could break her bubble by introducing her female self into the dream. Maybe hand her a mirror that shows the truth.

I mean, while you can say she is normal and this is a normal dream, it IS a delusion in and of itself. Nothing was resolved yesterday and it is a situation that will blow up eventually.

Yeah, give her the truth mirror.

>>514384
woops didn't see you there... sorry

too late! save the game so we can see what happens then re-load if it's horrible.

save and then lets move onward and upward

>>514384
frankly.. Ser Martin may be a bit off, but they're stable. potentially mind-rending headgames can wait until we aren't miles away from civilization with injured party members.

If she pitches a fit we want her to be in the middle of nowhere, not where she'll attract attention and cause problems. Also, now is the time to act, as she's already had a confrontation with her supposed beloved about it.
