Log:V4 Session 22 (Meta, no ontology)

Jun 21 19:15:00 <Hebizuka> [Session start!] Jun 21 19:15:03 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _Welcome back to the Mazes, Reina Miyako-Knight. You are currently in Elkins, in the hospital, specifically in the medic room, right after having gotten partial medical treatment. You're suffering from low blood pressure, but you have no bleeding wounds or any outstanding physical issues - you will heal over time if you keep yourself un-punctured._ Jun 21 19:15:30 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _Quest M03 is your only active quest, and Objective 3 is the active objective._ Jun 21 19:16:30 <HashiBot> <Reina> "Okay, so, first things first - yo, nurse, want to buy some smokes?" Jun 21 19:16:49 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Medic]** I'm the medic. The nurse at the meds shop is next room. Jun 21 19:17:21 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Medic]** You might just have kept us in business for a few more days, though, so - as morbid as it may be, thank you for coming here for medical treatment. Jun 21 19:17:29 <HashiBot> <Reina> "I'm trying to shout loud enough for the nurse to hear me." Jun 21 19:17:45 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Nurse]** _<From the room to the south, annoyedly>_ Come over there then! Jun 21 19:17:56 <HashiBot> <Reina> "LOVE YOU TOO TOOTS." Jun 21 19:18:05 <HashiBot> <Reina> Alright, /now/ I'll head on over. Jun 21 19:18:34 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _One room later..._ Jun 21 19:18:41 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Nurse]** So, you got what for me? Jun 21 19:18:56 <HashiBot> <Reina> "Smokes. That's - that's pretty much it." Jun 21 19:19:03 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Nurse]** How many? Jun 21 19:19:43 <HashiBot> <Reina> "Just the four. Don't want to open the other MRE until I have to." Jun 21 19:20:28 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Nurse]** _<Rolling her eyes.>_ What-ever. 20 P$. Sound good? Jun 21 19:20:54 <HashiBot> <Reina> "Take 'em away, Nurse. And can I see your wares?" Jun 21 19:21:11 <HashiBot> <Reina> "I would like to, you know, not nearly bleed out the next time I get bit." Jun 21 19:21:24 <HashiBot> <Reina> "I already bleed out between my legs every month." Jun 21 19:22:09 <HashiBot> <Reina> "But hey, maybe the medic over there can help with that, eh? EH." Jun 21 19:22:47 <HashiBot> <Tempest> [Money] 20 P$ Jun 21 19:22:57 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _Money pouch: 222 P$ /2000_ Jun 21 19:23:08 <HashiBot> <Tempest> [Backpack / Main] 25 /60 Jun 21 19:23:20 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Shop nurse]** Yeah, sure, whatever. Gimme a sec. Jun 21 19:24:59 <HashiBot> <Reina> "Man, you're no fun at all."

Jun 21 19:28:31 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _Pay 100 P$ for all four IBs?_ Jun 21 19:29:14 <HashiBot> <Reina> Yup yup. Jun 21 19:30:02 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _You have 122 P$ remaining in the money pouch. The annoyed nurse, who looks at you with the same disdain as a hipster coffee shop barista, slaps down the four bandages on the counter and takes your money as though they were covered in snot._ Jun 21 19:30:07 <Hebizuka> [Meds] Individual Bandage (IB) - Cures 1 wound. - Weight: 0.1 - (Quantity: 4) Jun 21 19:30:56 <HashiBot> <Reina> "If it helps, that's the money that /wasn't/ stuffed between my tits." Jun 21 19:31:05 <HashiBot> <Reina> "You know how it is - well, no. You clearly don't." Jun 21 19:31:09 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Shop nurse]** Ew. Freak. Jun 21 19:31:11 <HashiBot> <Reina> "Because you don't have tits." Jun 21 19:31:17 <HashiBot> <Reina> "That's the joke." Jun 21 19:31:23 <HashiBot> <Reina> AND NOW I LEAVE NEVER TO RETURN Jun 21 19:31:29 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Shop nurse]** Hey, fuck you, I'm not the one with giant melons that break my back! Jun 21 19:31:40 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Shop nurse]** Whore! Jun 21 19:31:44 <HashiBot> <Reina> "THAT'S THE BEST PART, I'M SO BUFF I CAN HANDLE THEM." Jun 21 19:31:53 <HashiBot> <Reina> "AND PROUD OF IT BABY." Jun 21 19:32:03 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _Her face turns red, and she gets VERY huffy._ Jun 21 19:32:37 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Shop nurse]** Oooh, when I get home tonight and talk about this on the BBS... Jun 21 19:32:45 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _She rambles some more, but it's inaudible._ Jun 21 19:33:22 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _Where are you leaving towards?_ Jun 21 19:34:02 <HashiBot> <Reina> Ah, I recall there being a clothes shop somewhere. Maybe I can buy something sexy for Octa to wear. Jun 21 19:34:05 <HashiBot> <Reina> And sell my ruined rags. Jun 21 19:35:37 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _You travel 14 rooms, out of the hospital, across the social square, and towards the shop hub and into the clothing store, while noting that it's surprising how a dying town still has 3 shops open. Besides the clothing store, there is also a gun shop and an engineering workshop._ Jun 21 19:37:56 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _A little bit of walking is what you needed to feel a little better already. You are aready starting to recover from the blood loss, and no longer sustain the effects of low blood pressure._ [Blood: 9.7 /18] Jun 21 19:38:18 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _You have regained your normal Strength and FT._ [Strength: 140%] [FT: 6] Jun 21 19:39:07 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _You're greeted by a young, naive-looking male human, who seems overly excited to see you enter._ Jun 21 19:39:12 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Clerk]** Hi, welcome to our little clothing store! How can I help you today? Jun 21 19:39:44 <HashiBot> <Reina> "Ooooh, hey there, cutie pie. I was hoping to offload some stuff I found for you handsome humanfolk." Jun 21 19:40:26 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Clerk]** Ohh, you're a youkai! I almost missed it, until your tail came into view... I mean, if you don't mind me looking. What were you looking to sell? Jun 21 19:42:47 <HashiBot> <Reina> Reina's all smiles as she leans over the counter, causing her massive bosom to squish against it and exposing her deep cleavage. "Well... how about myself, first of all? You interested~?" Jun 21 19:44:00 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Clerk]** Uh, um... Jun 21 19:44:41 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _You've startled the clothing store owner out of his wits. He doesn't look much older than 20 years old, and there comes in a tanuki with a massive pair of tits. He's clearly conflicted on what exactly you want._ Jun 21 19:45:21 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Clerk]** _<Muttering to himself>_ They're bigger than the girls at Garica... Jun 21 19:47:28 <HashiBot> <Reina> "That's right I am. And you're not so bad looking yourself." Reina reaches out slowly, just enough for him to scoot out of the way if he doesn't want her to graze his jaw. "I've been traveling in the UA for a while, and I could use a bit of stress relief. I /do/ have a few pieces of human clothing on me too, but I'm far more interested in you. What do you say?" Jun 21 19:48:32 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Clerk]** Uh, I don't know if that's a good idea, but... it's not like there's any town security left... I don't even know if we have laws anymore. Jun 21 19:49:25 <HashiBot> <Tempest> Roll me a 2d6+2. Success on 7 or higher. Jun 21 19:49:50 <HashiBot> Command sent from Discord by Reina: Jun 21 19:49:50 <HashiBot> @roll 2d6+2 Jun 21 19:49:50 <MazeBot> HashiBot: 12:10+2 Jun 21 19:50:14 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _Critical success. The clothing store owner is completely mesmerized by the mere promise of boobs. He's all ears on what you want._ Jun 21 19:52:08 <HashiBot> <Reina> "Think you can lock the door? Trust me handsome, it's a lot more fun if we have **privacy.**" Reina starts off by slipping her backpack off her shoulders, jetting her breasts jiggle in the process. Jun 21 19:52:23 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Clerk]** Wait, wait wait wait... Right here? Jun 21 19:52:42 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Clerk]** Um... Hang on. Jun 21 19:53:17 <HashiBot> <Reina> "Do you have somewhere comfier, handsome? I don't mind a bit of a trip - but it'll cost juuuust a little extra if you want to bring me home." Jun 21 19:53:25 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _He skitters to the door, checking if there's anyone outside in the shop hub streets. At 9:45 in the morning and in a town as sparsely populated as Elkins, there isn't anyone. Still, it doesn't seem like he is reassured._ Jun 21 19:54:02 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Clerk]** Okay... I shouldn't do this, but, frick. Come in with me in the storage room, there's -no way- anyone will be able to get in. _<He raises a hand.>_ Fingerprint lock, you know?... Jun 21 19:55:42 <HashiBot> <Reina> "Oh, honey, you know how to charm a gal." She walks right up next to him as she leads him to the back, making sure his free hand is placed right on top of her plump, whorish ass. "And I never did get a name, you smooth operator you. I'm Reina, and I'll be *loving* you today." Jun 21 19:56:48 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Clerk]** Maurice, though everyone calls me "Mo"... And, wait, wait, before anything... Is this gonna cost me? I mean... Jun 21 19:57:15 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _If you say yes, this is going to be a Negotiation check._ Jun 21 19:58:22 <HashiBot> <Reina> "Hmmmmm... well, I do like the cut of your jib. Most guys always just think with their dick, but guys who use their brain really get me going, Maurice." Jun 21 19:59:43 <HashiBot> <Reina> "I'll give you a nice, long suck on the house, and then see how you feel before we go further? It's always good to check the merchandise first, and you'll love how my tits feel around your raging hard cock." Jun 21 20:00:00 <HashiBot> <Reina> "I haven't drank anything in a while, after all~" Jun 21 20:00:07 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _You wonder if his face could be any redder right now._ Jun 21 20:01:27 <HashiBot> <Reina> "I even have some whiskey on me. You, me, a drink - our very own special Champagne Room. Right in the middle of work." Jun 21 20:02:28 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Clerk]** Okay, but... how about this... You promise we, um... _<Reduced voice>_ ... do it... _<Back to a normal-ish tone>_, but in exchange... name your price. Jun 21 20:03:56 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _Name a price, then I'll offer my check. The more you want the harder it'll be._ Jun 21 20:05:03 <HashiBot> <Reina> _fakes a rich, throaty moan, reaching out to squeeze Maurice's crotch and give him a nice thick feel. "Handsome, now you're speaking my language. Let's say... a nice, even 1500, and I'm your woman until I drain your balls dry of cum. And trust me, I'm a Tanuki - we're the best at milking balls."_ Jun 21 20:06:16 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _Okay... In normal circumstances he would've gone straight to 'lol, no'. But considering you passed a (relatively easy) charming check), I'm just going to offer a hard difficulty check._ Jun 21 20:06:29 <HashiBot> <Reina> "And if that's too much, I'm always willing to renegotiate - and toss in discounts for a skilled cock." Jun 21 20:07:51 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _Okay, here's the deal. Negotiation check. Roll a 2d6. Success on 9 or more - you get your 1500 P$, 4 Skill Points in Negotiation and a round of sex (with appropriate effects) if you succeed. Failure means he asks for less money (new check). Critical failure and he grows a spine and sends you out of here. Sound fair?_ Jun 21 20:10:21 <HashiBot> <Reina> Sounds good. Jun 21 20:10:33 <HashiBot> <Reina> Roll now? Jun 21 20:10:43 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _If you accept those terms, roll now._ Jun 21 20:11:23 <HashiBot> Command sent from Discord by Reina: Jun 21 20:11:24 <HashiBot> @roll 2d6 Jun 21 20:11:24 <MazeBot> HashiBot: 6 Jun 21 20:11:57 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Clerk]** 1500?! That's... That's way too much, could you please make it less expensive? I don't have THAT much money in my store... It's a small town, and nobody ever comes by... Jun 21 20:14:18 <HashiBot> <Reina> _smiles, gently kissing the poor fool on the cheek before whispering into his ear. When she speaks, hot puffs of air blow gently across his skin, and the bare tip of her tongue teases his lobe. "Good boy, Maurice. Glad to see you're thinking with your brain. Let's see... how's half that, then? 750."_ Jun 21 20:15:30 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _Negotiation check. Roll a 2d6, success on 8 or more this time, since it's still an exceptional-circumstances difficult situation. However if you succeed you're only getting 2 SP, and if you fail, he's going to refuse straight up (although he might offer something else)._ Jun 21 20:16:11 <HashiBot> Command sent from Discord by Reina: Jun 21 20:16:11 <HashiBot> @roll 2d6 Jun 21 20:16:11 <MazeBot> HashiBot: 8 Jun 21 20:16:41 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Clerk]** Okay then... Follow me, please. I can't believe I'm agreeing to this... Jun 21 20:17:21 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _The store owner unlocks the access to the storage room. You may walk in and get your fade to black sexytimes, and your rewards afterwards._ Jun 21 20:18:18 <HashiBot> <Reina> Walking in~ Jun 21 20:21:37 <HashiBot> <Tempest> Okay, roll me a 2d15+5 please. Jun 21 20:22:20 <HashiBot> Command sent from Discord by Reina: Jun 21 20:22:21 <HashiBot> @roll 2d15+5 Jun 21 20:22:21 <MazeBot> HashiBot: 33:28+5 Jun 21 20:22:26 <HashiBot> <Reina> YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Jun 21 20:23:28 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _33 turns pass, during which you spend 2 hours and 45 minutes laying down and doing all sorts of positions with that clothing shop owner, who has WAY more endurance than his small frame initially let on. Beware the shy ones, like they say..._ Jun 21 20:23:50 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _During those 33 turns, the following also occurred:_ Jun 21 20:24:16 <HashiBot> <Tempest> The time is now 12:30 PM. Jun 21 20:24:40 <HashiBot> <Tempest> [Blood: 13.0 /18] Jun 21 20:25:28 <HashiBot> <Tempest> You're growing significantly tired. [Fatigue: 50.8%] Jun 21 20:25:58 <HashiBot> <Tempest> This happy event has been quite the stress relief. [Stress: 0.5%] Jun 21 20:26:05 <HashiBot> <Tempest> > You're no longer under the effects of combat readiness. Jun 21 20:26:50 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _Stress Tolerance is disabled. Agility drops down to normal. IS Tier returns to normal. No longer under accelerated fatigue._ Jun 21 20:29:18 <HashiBot> <Tempest> > You're now under the effects of Tired, which are as follows: Jun 21 20:30:14 <HashiBot> <Tempest> > Agility -1, Mild accelerated hunger (natural hunger +4 ntri/turn, for a current total of 5), Mild accelerated thirst (natural thirst +2 wtr/turn, for a current total of 3) Jun 21 20:37:18 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _You're now sitting on the floor of the Elkins clothing store storage room, alongside a heaving, exhausted, but time-of-his-life satisfied store owner. You're tired, as well, and you feel as though the time you spent there took a significant bite out of your personal reserves of energy - although not because of the sexytimes._ Jun 21 20:37:55 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _Maurice stands back up, hardly bothering to get dressed again, and reaches into the container where all of the store money is kept. Out of which comes 750 P$, at your attention._ Jun 21 20:38:00 <HashiBot> <Tempest> [Money] 750 P$ Jun 21 20:38:08 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _You've also gained 2 Skill Points in Negotiation._ Jun 21 20:39:12 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _Total in money pouch: 872 P$_ Jun 21 20:40:47 <HashiBot> <Reina> _is still moaning and writhing as she shudders on the floor, practically basting in a puddle of her own slutty juices. Her entire body, from her silky white hair, to her soft and petite face, to her massive, heaving breasts and her toned legs, are smeared and covered with sperm, marking her in the young store-owner's scent. Whenever Reina so much as twitches, more hot, virile cum spills out from her gaping pussy lips, while the rest Jun 21 20:40:47 <HashiBot> sits in her fertile womb, eager to fill her with child._ Jun 21 20:41:02 <HashiBot> <Reina> "Oh... oh my gods, Maurice... I think I'm in love." Jun 21 20:41:16 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Maurice]** I was ... about to say that. Jun 21 20:42:58 <HashiBot> <Reina> _staggers up to her knees, but, for now, is too tired to move any further. Her breasts are now obviously sagging, emphasizing their sheer doughy weight as Reina looks up at the young man. As she breathes, her ruby lips smeared white with seed, the excess jizz drips off her hardened nipples and onto her thick thighs._ Jun 21 20:43:23 <HashiBot> <Reina> "Don't... don't suppose you have a phone number? I'd love to see you again - and I give discounts for returning customers." Jun 21 20:43:42 <HashiBot> <Reina> Now that he's undressed and standing what /does/ Maurice look like? Jun 21 20:43:47 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Maurice]** Well, it's as they said in the kid pen, I'm a man now... Jun 21 20:45:27 <HashiBot> <Reina> "Oh, you **are.** You've just guaranteed I'm coming back to Elkins, Maurice." Jun 21 20:46:51 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _Maurice - full name Maurice Green - is a 20 year old, human, Asian-looking male. He is short, slender, with short dark brown hair in a pixie cut, has a pair of green eyes, wears no accessory nor has any special marks, and up until today, was a virgin._ Jun 21 20:49:08 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Maurice]** A phone number?... Yeah, sure. 00-003-96DD. I left my phone at home though, but after I'm done today I'll make sure to keep an eye on it. I think I'm going to quit this job soon anyway... You were my first client in three whole days, can you believe that? ... ah, and what the hell, I'm the one paying you... ahah. Jun 21 20:50:07 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _Maurice Green is now a **contact!** His number will only be call-able at 5 PM today, however he should be callable at any point afterwards._ Jun 21 20:52:03 <HashiBot> <Reina> It takes a while, but Reina is able to eventually get up, absentmindedly licking the cum off her lips and breasts like the whore she is. "You've made a tired girl really happy today, Maurice. Thank you. And, ah - I actually did have human clothes to sell you." Jun 21 20:52:31 <HashiBot> <Reina> "I mean, I was jealous at first, but I think it's better this way. I wear human seed a **lot** better than human fabric, eh?" Jun 21 20:53:23 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Maurice]** Haah... You haven't had enough of my money yet? Sure, I mean, I'm still a shop owner for a few hours, go ahead... While we're still in there. Jun 21 20:53:29 <HashiBot> <Reina> _moves to get out her ruined T-shirt, the pimp shoes, and the cop hat out of her backpack. "I think this transaction, at least, can be entirely above-board?"_ Jun 21 20:53:33 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _The way he says it is more cute than mocking._ Jun 21 20:53:43 <HashiBot> <Reina> "Though I don't mind going under-desk when I see you again." Jun 21 20:54:08 <HashiBot> <Reina> _just laughs as she hands him the clothes. "I'd kiss you for that, but I'm not sure if you want a taste of your maleness."_ Jun 21 20:54:18 <HashiBot> <Reina> "It *does* taste good, though." Jun 21 20:54:27 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Maurice]** _<Awkward giggling>_ If you say so. Lemme take a look. Jun 21 20:55:41 <Hebizuka> < Selling items > Jun 21 20:55:41 <Hebizuka> Camouflaged T-shirt (blue camo) - 30 P$ Jun 21 20:55:41 <Hebizuka> Pimp zebra shoes - 18 P$ Jun 21 20:55:41 <Hebizuka> Cop hat - 45 P$ Jun 21 20:55:41 <Hebizuka> TOTAL: 93 P$ due to customer Jun 21 20:56:34 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _Confirm sale?_ Jun 21 20:57:33 <HashiBot> <Reina> Yup yup~ Jun 21 20:57:56 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _Maurice hands you 93 P$ more from the container with the money inside._ Jun 21 20:58:07 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _You now carry a total of 965 P$._ Jun 21 20:58:11 <HashiBot> <Tempest> [Backpack / Main] 14 /60 Jun 21 20:59:04 <HashiBot> <Reina> "Mmmm, god, I can still feel you dripping out of me, Maurice. I should probably get going. I'll see you around, handsome?" Jun 21 20:59:56 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Maurice]** Will you call me this evening? I'm free from 5 PM onwards... I'd be happy even just to hear you again, even if you don't drop by this horrible town again... Frankly wouldn't blame you. Jun 21 21:00:36 <HashiBot> <Reina> "God, you're so cute. I /was/ gonna get going... but, hey, the Engineer shop here sells phones sometimes, right?" Jun 21 21:00:49 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Maurice]** Huh, yeah, I think they do, as well as batteries. Did you lose yours? Jun 21 21:00:50 <HashiBot> <Reina> "I think you've earned me spending a little cash on you." Jun 21 21:00:57 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Maurice]** _<Blush.>_ Jun 21 21:01:24 <HashiBot> <Reina> "Yeah, I did. You know how it goes. And, well. A girl like me doesn't get treated to well by the guys at Garcia." Jun 21 21:01:48 <HashiBot> <Reina> "Whenever you save up, go over there and try one of their girls out. Let me know if I've ruined you for other women, okay~?" Jun 21 21:01:55 <HashiBot> <Reina> "I'll make sure to take responsibility." Jun 21 21:02:18 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Maurice]** You mean Garica? I dunno, the girls there seemed happy to work there... But then again I don't really know. I didn't want to spend money on them last time I went, but now maybe I will. But, uh... We'll meet again, right? Right?... Jun 21 21:03:10 <HashiBot> <Reina> "I'll do my best. You're definitely my favorite so far." Jun 21 21:03:22 <HashiBot> <Reina> "Kiss me before I go? Cum on my lips and all? It'd mean a lot to me." Jun 21 21:03:50 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _He leans in, hesitantly, but happily kisses you once more._ Jun 21 21:04:21 <HashiBot> <Reina> _moans into the kiss, and when she pulls away, there's a thick, lewd trail of saliva and semen connecting their lips._ Jun 21 21:04:36 <HashiBot> <Reina> "There we go, Maurice. See you later." Jun 21 21:05:00 <HashiBot> <Reina> I'll be grabbing my stuff and heading over to the Engineer shop without once showering at all. Jun 21 21:05:07 <HashiBot> <Reina> Unless Maurice has any parting words~? Jun 21 21:05:45 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _He doesn't. He quietly opens the door for you - since it's FL/HS locked - and starts dressing back up, while still inside._ Jun 21 21:06:05 <HashiBot> <Reina> Ah, well. To the Engineer Shop~ Jun 21 21:07:46 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _Five rooms later, you end up in the Elkins engineering workshop, being manned by an even YOUNGER-looking person - a female cat halfling who looks like she's barely 17 years old._ Jun 21 21:08:09 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Engineer]** Oh, wow, someone actually showed up! Hi, welcome to the Elkins -- Uh, to Elkins's ... Welcome to my workshop! Eheh... Jun 21 21:09:34 <HashiBot> <Reina> Despite being only half-cleaned of jizz, and sore all over, Reina's eyes light up as she sees the gorgeous catgirl. "Hey there, kitty cat. Am I your first customer?" Jun 21 21:10:15 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Engie]** Yeah, actually! I started working here three days ago, but it's so dead in here... My shop inventory is the same it was. Is it always this difficult to make a sale? Or is it just that hard around here? Jun 21 21:10:26 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _She squints her eyes, as if trying to discern a small detail._ Jun 21 21:10:41 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Engie]** You have a little... sauce, on your cheek. Jun 21 21:11:06 <HashiBot> <Reina> "I know~. Want to try it?" Jun 21 21:11:26 <HashiBot> <Reina> "I just had this /amazing/ lunch, but the chef's gonna be moving out soon. The cream he whips up is just the best." Jun 21 21:11:53 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Engie]** _<Completely oblivious>_ Nah, thanks. I just ate. Had a hot-dog at the takeout stand already. So, what can I do for you? Jun 21 21:12:31 <HashiBot> <Reina> "Ah well. And, I'd like to buy a cell phone and a few batteries for it." Jun 21 21:12:35 <HashiBot> <Reina> "Lost my old one, you see." Jun 21 21:12:59 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Engie]** Give me a minute to see if I have any in the inventory, okay? Jun 21 21:14:58 <HashiBot> <Reina> "Sure, cutie. What's your name?" Jun 21 21:15:52 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Engie]** Nope, I'm sorry, I'm all out of phones. Here's what I do have: Jun 21 21:15:55 <Hebizuka> < Elkins - Engineering workshop > Jun 21 21:15:55 <Hebizuka> Aerosol spray - 50 P$ (Quantity: 2) Jun 21 21:15:55 <Hebizuka> Long pistol slide - 400 P$ Jun 21 21:15:55 <Hebizuka> Long pistol frame - 300 P$ Jun 21 21:15:55 <Hebizuka> Camera - 400 P$ Jun 21 21:15:55 <Hebizuka> WL2 (Weapon Light and Laser) battery - 100 P$ Jun 21 21:15:55 <Hebizuka> Box of carbon nanotube fiber sheets - 300 P$ Jun 21 21:15:55 <Hebizuka> Roll of duct tape (10 uses) - 25 P$ Jun 21 21:15:55 <Hebizuka> Memory card (256 MB) for camera - 100 P$ Jun 21 21:15:55 <Hebizuka> Electronic circuit - 100 P$ Jun 21 21:15:55 <Hebizuka> Box of 250 safety matches - 50 P$ (Quantity: 2) Jun 21 21:16:25 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Engie]** My name is Diana, ma'am. Jun 21 21:16:50 <HashiBot> <Reina> "Nice to meet you, Diana. And, well... I guess I'll buy the camera and the memory ard, then." Jun 21 21:17:22 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Engie]** Okay. You know that the camera already comes with a free memory card loaded inside, right? Jun 21 21:17:49 <HashiBot> <Reina> "Welll... I like giving out pictures to my friends." Jun 21 21:18:12 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Engie]** Fair enough! That will be 500 P$ for both items, then. Will that be all, ma'am? I have a range of other products and services for sale, too! Jun 21 21:18:28 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _She's doing the eager sales spiel. It's obvious she's just started out._ Jun 21 21:18:34 <HashiBot> <Reina> "And, hey, I wanna do you a favor - after I buy the camera, it'll be a lot harder to sell the memory card. I was thinking maybe you could lop off, I dunno, 10 bucks from the memory card?" Jun 21 21:19:09 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _If you want to haggle, that's a Negotiation check as well. Do you want to do this?_ Jun 21 21:20:07 <HashiBot> <Reina> Yup yup. Jun 21 21:20:11 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _This is an easy haggle, which will bring you 1 Skill Point if successful. Roll 2d6, success on 7 or more._ Jun 21 21:20:31 <HashiBot> Command sent from Discord by Reina: Jun 21 21:20:32 <HashiBot> @roll 2d6 Jun 21 21:20:32 <MazeBot> HashiBot: 6 Jun 21 21:20:37 <HashiBot> <Reina> Oh well, I tried. Jun 21 21:20:43 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _Failure!_ Jun 21 21:21:04 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Engie]** Sorry, ma'am, I haven't sold anything in three days, but I can't start making discounts... Otherwise I won't even have enough to resupply. Jun 21 21:21:23 <HashiBot> <Reina> "Well, that's alright. Alrighty, here you go, but only because you're cute." Jun 21 21:21:34 <HashiBot> <Reina> I'll slap down 500 for the camera and the spare memory card. Jun 21 21:21:46 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _She blushes, but smiles at the compliments._ Jun 21 21:21:59 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Engie]** Um, thank you, ma'am! I, ah... I'll go get your purchases. Jun 21 21:22:10 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _465 P$ remaining in the money pouch._ Jun 21 21:22:15 <HashiBot> <Reina> "Don't worry, I'll just wait here for you." Jun 21 21:22:52 <Hebizuka> [Item] Camera. Capable of taking pictures in 1024x768 resolution, with stunning 32-bit color. Requires a memory card to save the photos. - Weight: 1 - [Memcard loaded - 0/110 photos] Jun 21 21:22:52 <Hebizuka> [Item] Memory card for cameras. With a total capacity of 256MB, it allows cameras to store up to 110 photos. - Weight: 0.1 - [0/110 photos] Jun 21 21:24:01 <HashiBot> <Reina> "Thank you. And, uh - would you like to take a few practice photos with me? Just so I know this is working?" Jun 21 21:24:47 <HashiBot> <Reina> "I'd like to, well, get into modeling. And honestly, I think you could get into it too, if this shop thing doesn't work out. I hear a lot of people are planning to leave Elkins these days." Jun 21 21:25:18 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Engie]** What? Pictures of me? ... I mean, sure... But I'm really no model, I'm not very pretty, and, and... _<She stammers.>_ Jun 21 21:26:44 <HashiBot> <Reina> "Are you kidding me? Diana, girl, step out behind that counter and let me take a look at you." Jun 21 21:26:51 <HashiBot> <Reina> What /does/ Diana look like~/ Jun 21 21:26:54 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Engie]** Fine, fine... Jun 21 21:27:23 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _She steps from behind the shop counter, and stands there, hands on her hips, looking almost sassy if she wasn't such a worried teenager._ Jun 21 21:31:42 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _From there, you can fully see what she looks like - a late teens, female cat halfling with latino features. She is of average height and constitution, with a modest chest (you wouldn't say much bigger than B cups), long black hair that falls down to her back, a pair of hazel eyes, a brass pendant shaped like a wrench around her neck, and no distinguishable feature on her body - none that you can see, at least._ Jun 21 21:31:53 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Engie]** This is a bit embarrassing. Jun 21 21:32:21 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _Her cat features - a pair of eyes and a tail, that is nervously swishing behind her back - are calico colored._ Jun 21 21:32:43 <HashiBot> <Reina> "I'm sorry, but you look so cute. I bet you're beating off boys with a stick, right?" Jun 21 21:33:09 <HashiBot> <Reina> "Your hair is so gorgeous, and the way it frames your butt is just perfect." Jun 21 21:33:39 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Engie]** I don't really meet that many to begin with, and -- Hey! No! Don't talk about my butt! Jun 21 21:33:58 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _Huffy and flustered, and (pretending to be) angry._ Jun 21 21:35:05 <HashiBot> <Reina> _plays along, putting her hands up in the ear and acting terribly embarrassed. "Oh no, I'm so sorry, Diana! It's just, your lower half is so cute and tight! What should I talk about instead?"_ Jun 21 21:36:23 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Engie]** _<Her ears droop, and now she feels bad for almost hissing at you.>_ No, no, wait, it's just... You're really not how I imagined my first customer would be, you know? I'm ... Maybe I'm taking it too seriously. Did you take any pictures yet? ... I uh, just want to know. Jun 21 21:36:45 <HashiBot> <Reina> Oh my god I'm in love. Jun 21 21:36:52 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Engie]** I mean... What? Jun 21 21:37:49 <HashiBot> <Reina> "Nothing! Nothing at all! I haven't actually taken any pictures yet, Diana. How about I take a few of you, you take a few of me, and then we do a few selfies?" Jun 21 21:38:33 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Engie]** _<Hesitant at first>_ Uh... I mean, it's not like I have anything better to do. Okay, sure! Jun 21 21:38:36 <HashiBot> <Reina> "And hey, Diana - it's your first job since leaving the kids' pen, right? It's good that you're taking things seriously - just remember that you're always able to move along if a better opportunity comes along." Jun 21 21:39:31 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Engie]** ...You're right. Yeah. I'm gonna do that. I got the skills. I can do whatever it takes. It's just... Now I feel swindled for accepting that spot. They told me I'd have the whole market for myself if I picked Elkins, but I get the feeling I got shafted, yknow? Think I might just do that, look for opportunities. Jun 21 21:40:58 <HashiBot> <Reina> "Great! Actually, I'm pretty close friends with the clothing shop owner, Maurice. He's thinking about leaving too - maybe you can meet up and see about traveling together?" Jun 21 21:41:12 <HashiBot> <Reina> "The UA's a pretty dangerous place, and there's always safety in numbers." Jun 21 21:42:33 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Engie]** What? But I just took this job and this spot! What a bummer it would be to leave now... Jun 21 21:43:22 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Engie]** With that said... Elkins DOES suck. Tell you what, uh. Depending on what happens in the future, I'll let you know, okay? You're my first customer, and you made me 500 P$, and besides, you seem like a well-traveled gal... Are you traveling often? Jun 21 21:44:37 <HashiBot> <Reina> "I travel all the time, actually. I'll be heading to Arnett right after I let Maurice know it might be a while before I can call him, and then after that I'll be going to Semitas. There's a friend who lives there, and asked me to do a favor for him." Jun 21 21:46:21 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Engie]** Well, okay then. Hey, can you tell me something? Like... It's a bit of a strange question, and all, but... Is it true there is no town security here? I haven't really checked but I didn't see -anyone- at the entrance when I first moved, and I always thought, "Hey, that's super weird." Jun 21 21:46:59 <HashiBot> <Reina> "As far as I can tell? No. I talked to the Engineers by the generator, and they said there hasn't been any security in forever. That it's basically just them, and the shopkeepers." Jun 21 21:47:14 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _Diana looks utterly shocked._ Jun 21 21:47:23 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Engie]** Holy shit, this town suuuuuucks!... Jun 21 21:47:35 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Engie]** Wow!... I mean, just, wow! Jun 21 21:47:50 <HashiBot> <Reina> "It might be a good idea to leave before there's a raid. Anything's better than getting kidnapped and sold by Outlaws, right?" Jun 21 21:47:52 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _She glances at her hip, where her weapon rests._ Jun 21 21:48:00 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Engie]** It's a good thing we got these, huh? Jun 21 21:48:39 <HashiBot> <Reina> "Sure is. But a pretty girl like you or me? It's always better to not be around when the shooting starts." Jun 21 21:48:51 <HashiBot> <Reina> "Trust me, I'm speaking from experience." Jun 21 21:49:39 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Engie]** Well, I'll give this place a shot for a few more days, then I'll look elsewhere for work, or hell, just quit my job and become a contractor. Unless something else happens. It'd suck to be an engineer for all of three days, or just one week, but ... Damn, Marcus REALLY did fuck me over by telling me it was the best place to look out for work! I should've accepted that job in Ferland Sector instead! Jun 21 21:50:02 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Engie]** At least I wouldn't be worried about security over there, there's military guys all over the place in that area... _<Sigh>_ Jun 21 21:50:44 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _Little does she know there isn't even a spot in Ferland Sector for engineers to work. Whoever was her handler when she was still a student was NOT looking out for her best interests._ Jun 21 21:51:21 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Engie]** _<Huffy>_ What a dick! I wish I could find his ass and claw it until it's bleeding! Jun 21 21:51:57 <HashiBot> <Reina> "Hmmm - got a full name?" Jun 21 21:52:03 <HashiBot> <Reina> "Maybe I can pass on a message, eh~?" Jun 21 21:52:59 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Engie]** Diana Molinaro. If you ever find a dude called Marcus Swain, tell him he's a pig, a Sw-ine, an asshole, and that he deserves to have his ass torn apart! Jun 21 21:53:36 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Engie]** But don't, like, actually beat him up or something... Jun 21 21:54:34 <HashiBot> <Reina> "I won't, I promise. And speaking of stress relief..." She shakes the camera. "Ready to take some photos? There's always a job for a good looking girl like us, Diana." Jun 21 21:54:53 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Engie]** Oh yeah, you wanted to test the camera out. Sure, let's do this! Jun 21 21:56:22 <HashiBot> <Reina> I'll be taking ten pictures of her, in classic modelling poses. You know, going from light smiles and waves, to maybe arcing her back or bending lower - you know, the totally usual. Jun 21 21:56:32 <HashiBot> <Reina> And then she'll take ten pics of me, in the same fashion. Jun 21 21:57:12 <HashiBot> <Tempest> Okay, can you roll me a ... let's say a 1d4. Jun 21 21:57:54 <HashiBot> Command sent from Discord by Reina: Jun 21 21:57:54 <HashiBot> @roll 1d4 Jun 21 21:57:54 <MazeBot> HashiBot: 4 Jun 21 21:58:29 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _Clickety click click click. The two of you spend 4 turns - and 20 minutes - having fun with the camera, taking photos, selfies, and essentially starting what looks like the beginning of a friendship._ Jun 21 21:58:52 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _Your camera now has 20 pictures loaded - 12 of Diana, 4 of yourself, and 4 of both of you._ Jun 21 21:59:51 <HashiBot> <Reina> "Hmmmm. One more of the two of us? Just so I have nice, round number." Jun 21 22:00:19 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Diana]** Ah, all right, but just one more, okay? Jun 21 22:00:59 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _And click._ Jun 21 22:01:30 <HashiBot> <Reina> And as the camera clicks, Reina tries to smooch Diana on camera. Jun 21 22:01:58 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _Diana pushes you away at the last second._ Jun 21 22:02:07 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Diana]** Hey! Take it easy, Camera Girl! Jun 21 22:02:14 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _She's amused more than anything, though._ Jun 21 22:02:32 <HashiBot> <Reina> "Hahaha, sorry, sorry! I, uh - I guess you don't qite bat for my team, huh?" Jun 21 22:02:39 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Diana]** What? Jun 21 22:03:00 <HashiBot> <Reina> "Oh, uhm... do you like girls? Like, you know. Romantically." Jun 21 22:03:56 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Diana]** Uh... I kind of really never gave it a thought before. I've kind of spent all my child life working, and I finally have a job now, even if, well, it sucks, and the town sucks too. Jun 21 22:04:31 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Diana]** Yknow how it is... Hardcore student, no time for boys or girls, and all that noise. Jun 21 22:04:59 <HashiBot> <Reina> "Yeah, I understand. I wasn't, well - the most hardworking in the pen, and now here I am, travelling nonstop." Jun 21 22:05:34 <HashiBot> <Reina> "But I enjoy myself. It's really fun, meeting new people and making friendships with whoever." Jun 21 22:06:16 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Diana]** Oh, I mean, I wasn't judging you! It's just I hear you. You gotta hustle your next paycheck everyday. Here I was expecting it'd be an easy coast to 65, selling gear, doing gunsmithing and stuff, but there's nobody coming. I feel for you, yknow? Facing the possibility I'mma have to do what you do, and all... Traveling, contracting, and shit. Jun 21 22:06:32 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Diana]** What I'm trying to say is, I got a lotta respect. Jun 21 22:08:17 <HashiBot> <Reina> "Hey, don't knock yourself short, Diana. Even if it's not perfect right now, you always got something stable to rely on. There's more in that brain of yours about tech and engineering than I'll ever know about anything. Seeing you already owning a store, being a full fledged engineer - that was impressive." Jun 21 22:08:25 <HashiBot> <Reina> "...it was why I tried to hit on you." Jun 21 22:08:50 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Diana]** _<Again that look of utter surprise.>_ ...You were hitting on me? Jun 21 22:08:55 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Diana]** ... ??? ??? Jun 21 22:10:00 <HashiBot> <Reina> "Yuuuuup. Diana, I was ogling you non-stop. And I just really wanted to touch and kiss you every time we did a selfie together." Jun 21 22:10:01 <HashiBot> <Gear> Level up! @Reina is now **level 20**. Jun 21 22:10:13 <HashiBot> <Reina> "I hope you don't mind too much? Or at least, I hope you had fun." Jun 21 22:11:19 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _She stares blankly at you for a full five seconds._ Jun 21 22:12:14 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Diana]** Damn, just, damn. I had -no- idea anyone would take an interest in me like that. Jun 21 22:12:26 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Diana]** It's kind of weird. Jun 21 22:13:30 <HashiBot> <Reina> "Well. Now you know. And now that you know... May I have your number?" Jun 21 22:13:57 <HashiBot> <Reina> "I'll be able to get a phone eventually, and I'd like to keep in contact. As friends, even if you don't like me /that/ way." Jun 21 22:14:08 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Diana]** Hey, uh, let's take it easy, okay? I'm just starting my life out. Literally. I don't wanna do anything stupid right away, even though... I kind of already did a stupid thing by taking this spot, eheh... Jun 21 22:14:50 <HashiBot> <Reina> "Oh no no no, I totally get you. I didn't mean it like *that.* Just, well. When you travel a lot, it's easy to get lonely sometimes." Jun 21 22:15:00 <HashiBot> <Reina> "And it'd be good to have a friend." Jun 21 22:15:11 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Diana]** _<She scribbles her number on a piece of paper.>_ When you find yourself a phone, gimme a call, maybe we'll hang out sometime later. Or maybe I'll call you, tell you my life's in dire straits and I want a traveling partner, who knows! Sure seems like it's all going full-auto these days. Jun 21 22:15:45 <HashiBot> <Reina> "Diana I'd kiss you if you'd let me. You're the best." Jun 21 22:16:33 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _00-003-22A2_ Jun 21 22:17:20 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _Diana Molinaro is now a **contact!**_ Jun 21 22:19:51 <HashiBot> <Reina> "Thanks, Diana. And even if you don't decide to leave right now, make sure to talk with Maurice, okay? Two heads are always better than one." Jun 21 22:20:06 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Diana]** Maurice? The clothing store guy? Why, what's up with him? Jun 21 22:20:22 <HashiBot> <Reina> "Oh, didn't I tell you already? He's leaving soon too." Jun 21 22:20:28 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Diana]** Daaaaamn. Jun 21 22:20:43 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Diana]** Today felt like a hammer falling on a freaking double charge. Jun 21 22:20:53 <HashiBot> <Reina> "Yeah, he and I got together and became friends, I told him a bit about my lifestyle, and he thought it might be a good idea to try me out." Jun 21 22:21:33 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Diana]** Any more shocking news for me? Is there a bomb, JC? I mean, wow. Geez. Speaking of which... What -do- you do? You told me you travel a lot, I figure you're a contractor of some sort, but I never did ask you. Jun 21 22:22:22 <HashiBot> <Reina> "Well, I'm mostly a freelancer. But, uhm - promise not to laugh?" Jun 21 22:22:49 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Diana]** Okay, I promise. Jun 21 22:23:19 <HashiBot> <Reina> "What **I** do isn't, necessarily, the most glamorous work. I enjoy myself, but I'd like to move onto hunting instead once I learn how to butcher. But, well... I'm a prostitute." Jun 21 22:23:44 <HashiBot> <Reina> "I'm good at it, and it's fun, but, well - it's hard to make friends when you're someone like me." Jun 21 22:24:08 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _Again, the stare of utter shock._ Jun 21 22:24:23 <HashiBot> <Reina> For once, Reina is totally subdued. She can't quite look Diana in the eye, and she's holding her hands behind her to hide how she's wringing her wrists. Jun 21 22:24:25 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _Diana frantically looks around in the workshop, without a word, as if searching for some kind of hidden object._ Jun 21 22:24:35 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _Probably not the reaction you expected._ Jun 21 22:24:42 <HashiBot> <Reina> "No, we're not on TV."

Jun 22 02:26:18 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _The next doors lead to Arnett's Gap Corridor._ Jun 22 02:26:52 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _You have returned to Arnett, seeing again that now familiar gap corridor, with its plain walls and its sign, "WELCOME TO ARNETT"._ Jun 22 02:27:03 <HashiBot> <Reina> "Home aweet home." Jun 22 02:28:17 <HashiBot> <Reina> First things first, I wanna pop into the bar, see if Octa's around. Or those cute Phantom Forces ladies. Jun 22 02:29:19 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _It'll take 11 rooms of traveling to head to the Bolt Face, the local bar. OK?_ Jun 22 02:31:26 <HashiBot> <Reina> Yup yup. Jun 22 02:35:44 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _You arrive at the Bolt Face, inside of the hall, where there are eight tables and several chairs around those tables. The clock reads 3:20 PM, and there are a few patrons at the tables, enjoying their drinks and chatting with each other. The bar counter is just one room to the east, as usual._ Jun 22 02:38:04 <HashiBot> <Reina> Anyone I recognize? Glowing angels, bisexual soldiers? Jun 22 02:39:53 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _No-one you recognize in the bar hall. Might be worthy to check the bar counter room._ Jun 22 02:40:45 <HashiBot> <Reina> I'll peek my head on in. And maybe buy a drink, I'm parched. Jun 22 02:42:44 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _At the bar counter, you see the barkeep, and several patrons, both at the counter and at the tables around. The ambiance is busy, lots of chatter over the metal that's being played on the speakers._ Jun 22 02:44:35 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Music lyrics]** Squeeze the trigger that makes you Man | Pseudo-safari, the hunt is canned... (♫)... The hunt is canned | All are gone, all but one... Jun 22 02:45:11 <HashiBot> <Reina> I don't recognize the tune, but that's fine. Any familiar faces? Jun 22 02:45:39 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _Mostly locals, although there is a familiar-looking Angelic seemingly drinking his soul away at the counter. It's Octavius, of course._ Jun 22 02:47:56 <HashiBot> <Reina> Reina smiles to herself, trying to keep a low profile as Octa stares into his drink. It's not until she's behind him that she covers his eyes with her hands, and presses her bosom against his strong, winged back. "Hey handsome. Guess who?" Jun 22 02:50:55 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Octavius]** OH MY GODS I'M SORRY MISS COUNSELOR I-- ... Oh, oh gosh. It's just you, Reina. Geeze... Don't scare me like that... Jun 22 02:51:19 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _The barkeep instinctively reached for his shotgun for a brief moment... but relented, when he realized Octa's screaming is harmless._ Jun 22 02:53:15 <HashiBot> <Reina> "Sorry, sorry! I'll keep it in mind that you spook easy." Reina gives him a nice long hug, letting her bosom squish warmly against his back, before sitting across the table from him. "You were right, Elkins is a dump. But I made a few friends there. How are you?" Jun 22 02:55:08 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Octavius]** Oh, I'm just, you know, quietly spending away my pay in beer. Whiskey tasted like gun oil to me, I'm gonna stick to stuff that gets me buzzed and doesn't punch my throat in the process. Jun 22 02:56:33 <HashiBot> <Reina> "That's fair. I think I'll head to the hospital and rest for a bit, because traveling there and back really tuckered me out. I just wanted to make a quick stop here to make sure you were still around, Octa. And, well - I forgot to ask you about the Prophecy before you left." Jun 22 02:57:14 <HashiBot> <Reina> "I mean, preeeetty sure I know the gist, Contestant from another world and all, and all the Amulets still lost to time, all that good stuff. But a gal like me covers her bases." Jun 22 02:58:41 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Octavius]** Oh, wow, I get to actually do my job for once... Preaching bout the faith and all that stuff. Hahaa... I get to tell the Prophecy to the one person that it might concern, AND you're gonna go and sign up to the competition. If my bosses saw me right now... _<nervous chuckling>_ Jun 22 02:59:09 <HashiBot> <Reina> "Need another hug to calm your nerves?" Jun 22 02:59:44 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Octavius]** I'm good, I'm good... Hey, you look awful... What happened back there? You sure you made friends in Elkins? _<Snf, snf>_ You're all tired and sweaty. Jun 22 03:00:09 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Octavius]** Heck, you look like you could sleep for a whole day... Jun 22 03:02:56 <HashiBot> <Reina> "It's been rough, yeah. The UA is a lot more dangerous than I gave it credit for. Ran into a Polymer Golem, and - well, I'm alive, at least." Jun 22 03:03:41 <HashiBot> <Reina> "So - any chance you have the Prophecy memorized?" Jun 22 03:03:50 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Octavius]** Sheesh. Sounds like you need better guns. Oh, oh, yeah, yeah I do, sorry. Hang on. Jun 22 03:03:59 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _He grabs a bottle of stout beer, which he finishes in one go._ Jun 22 03:08:26 <HashiBot> <Reina> "I like a man who can drink it all without needing to catch his breath." Jun 22 03:08:31 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Octavius]** Okay. Jun 22 03:08:57 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _Octa proceeds to tell, word for word, the prophecy as it's told by all Angelics in any Heaven controlled town. https://pastebin.com/HFQ3TZJ6_ Jun 22 03:09:45 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _What makes the situation funnier is that instead of being a shrine maiden telling you the sacred text in the sanctity of a shrine, it's a drunk, depressed guardian angel telling you the prophecy in a noisy bar, with metal music playing in the background, right in between two swigs of stout beer._ Jun 22 03:10:00 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _But perhaps it is fitting that it happens that way._ Jun 22 03:10:52 <HashiBot> <Reina> "Mmm, yup, that sounds about right. Got the Gods' names wrong, but everything else more or less matches up.# Jun 22 03:13:32 <HashiBot> <Reina> "Is there anything else you can tell me? Like, hints or rumors where the Amulets are?" Jun 22 03:15:37 <HashiBot> <Reina> "I'd hate to operate blind. You know how it is." Jun 22 03:22:51 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Octavius]** Yeah.. What I can tell you is that three of them have already been found. Jun 22 03:23:15 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Octavius]** You probably heard of the Maze Military by now... Their leader, a Colonel Wight, big old buff dude who's half robot or something? He's got one of them. Jun 22 03:23:42 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Octavius]** There's the youkai activists, who the military love to hate, as well (and it goes back and forth)... Their own leader, some satori dude who calls himself Black Eye, he's got the second. Jun 22 03:24:18 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Octavius]** Third one is said to be in the hands of some kinda shady thieves guild that operates in the Northern Zone... the Guild of Silver Larceners, or something like that. Jun 22 03:24:38 <HashiBot> <Reina> "Mmm, quick question - is this, like, common knowledge? That the head hanchos of all these other factions have Amulets?" Jun 22 03:25:00 <HashiBot> <Reina> "Or is this something the Angelics have been keeping hush hush?" Jun 22 03:26:22 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Octavius]** Well it's something we talk about... It's not necessarily hush information, but it's stuff we need to know more than the average citizen. I mean. What's a regular folk gonna do with the information? It's relevant to us because, well, we wrote the freaking prophecy and we wanna know how much work it's gonna take to help the Contestant. Jun 22 03:26:32 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Octavius]** ...In theory. In practice, few of us give a fuck. Jun 22 03:26:45 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _He catches himself saying 'fuck', and sheepishly apologizes._ Jun 22 03:27:51 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Octavius]** ...Sorry. The drink's making me talk bad. Anyway, that leaves the fourth one. Location unconfirmed, the head honchos keep saying! Just rumors, lots of vigorous rumors. That it's most certainly here in the Eastern Zone, and that there has been a lot of chatter about it in Joliet Sector, a Police controlled town. Jun 22 03:28:40 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Octavius]** If you really wanna chase down that Amulet, I'd say you should go there. And... while you're on your way to Joliet, can you drop by to Semitas and do the thing I told you about? I really want out of my contract. Jun 22 03:28:52 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _<M03: Objective 3 complete.>_ Jun 22 03:29:25 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _<M03: Take the Long Way Home: **Quest complete!**>_ Jun 22 03:31:26 <HashiBot> <Reina> "That won't be a problem, Octa. You're mine one way or the other." Jun 22 03:32:31 <HashiBot> <Reina> "I was thinking, I'd go into Semitas and show that I'm already well informed, thanks to holy intervention. Do you think that'd give me a little more oomph?" Jun 22 03:33:25 <HashiBot> <Reina> "You'd know them a bit better than I would, after all." Jun 22 03:34:14 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Octavius]** Oh, you know, the Prophecy is something the shrine maidens like to tell to the kids and students. You'd be showing you know stuff anyone who's been at a seminar would know... Jun 22 03:34:33 <HashiBot> <Reina> "Even the info about the Amulets?" Jun 22 03:34:55 <HashiBot> <Reina> "That might add just a tad more weight to the story." Jun 22 03:35:32 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Octavius]** Just focus on making sure you tell them that you want to take me, and me specifically, under your custody, and that I already gave you my consent. And to kick them in the ovaries if they say no. Jun 22 03:36:04 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Octavius]** May as well go out on a bang, ahah... This is why I'm getting drunk. First time in ... darn. I forgot how old I am. It's three digits, that's all I'm sure. Jun 22 03:37:50 <HashiBot> <Reina> "You're kidding - you don't look a day over 23!" Jun 22 03:49:14 <HashiBot> <Reina> "Tell ya what, when I get your contract, we'll change your age to 17." Jun 22 03:49:28 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Octavius]** Yeah, I get that often. And no, please. I'm happy being one hundred whatever it is I am. Jun 22 03:49:36 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Octavius]** 150? 160? I forgot. Jun 22 03:49:49 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Octavius]** Or is it 250... fuck. Jun 22 03:50:08 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _He shakes his head, and orders another stout one to the barkeep, who replies with "Coming right up."_ Jun 22 03:50:19 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Octavius]** Can I pay you a drink? Least I can do for you... Jun 22 03:52:34 <HashiBot> <Reina> "Sure, but only if I get to call you Daddy in bed . Something non-alcoholic? I'm pretty delicate." Jun 22 03:53:22 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Octavius]** Sure. Hey, Barkeep! Give my friend anything she'll take, it's on me. Jun 22 03:53:36 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Barkeep]** Sure thing, dude. Ma'am? Jun 22 03:54:11 <HashiBot> <Tempest> Non-alcoholic drinks available: Mineral water, lemonade, cola drink, orange juice, apple juice, *grape juice, milk, energy drink Jun 22 03:54:32 <HashiBot> <Reina> "The biggest non-alcoholic thirst quencher tou got." Jun 22 03:58:06 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Barkeep]** Bottle of milk, or can of energy drink... Or straight up just bottle of water if you really just want to get rid of thirst. But... If I may make a suggestion? You look tired. I'd suggest an energy drink or two. Jun 22 03:59:24 <HashiBot> <Reina> "Mmm... I'll be heading to bed in a bit anyways. How about milk? And a straw. You know how it is." Jun 22 03:59:25 <HashiBot> <Gear> Level up! @Reina is now **level 21**. Jun 22 04:00:14 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Barkeep]** Sure thing. Jun 22 04:00:32 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _Since Octavius is paying for it, you do not need to buy the drink._ Jun 22 04:00:39 <Hebizuka> [Food] Beverage - Bottle of milk. 250 ntri, 127 wtr - Weight: 1 Jun 22 04:03:24 <HashiBot> <Reina> Reina can't stop herself from giving a dumb show, swirling her limber tongue around the straw as she sucks the glass dry of sweet cream. Jun 22 04:03:48 <HashiBot> <Reina> "Thanks, Octa. I hope you liked what you saw." Jun 22 04:04:40 <HashiBot> <Reina> "I'll be back for you, and once you're mine we're making a beeline to the nearest hotel." Jun 22 04:05:16 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Octavius]** May the Gods -- ... Wait, no. May whatever you believe in hear you. Really. Jun 22 04:06:03 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _The milk is fresh, cold even, and very tasty and filling._ Jun 22 04:06:22 <HashiBot> <Tempest> [Nutrition: 1530 ntri] [Hydration: 481 wtr] Jun 22 04:06:40 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _No longer under the effects of thirst, but again, you doubt only one drink is enough._ Jun 22 04:06:53 <HashiBot> <Tempest> [Strength: 140%] Jun 22 04:06:59 <HashiBot> <Reina> "It's okay. I believe in the Gods. That's why this will work." Jun 22 04:15:46 <HashiBot> <Reina> When Reina leaves, she makes sure to blow Octa... a kiss, before heading to the hospital. Jun 22 04:16:05 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Octavius]** Stay safe out there... And get some rest! Jun 22 04:16:33 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _10 rooms to travel to the hospital lobby. OK?_ Jun 22 04:16:38 <HashiBot> <Reina> Yup yup. Jun 22 04:18:18 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _The hospital is the same as in Elkins, at least in terms of layout. Arnett Hospital is, at the very least, not looking as though no-one has been cleaning the place in at least a few decades. There are a few locals siting on the waiting chairs. The lobby nurse - a charming looking young female human - smiles and greets you._ Jun 22 04:18:53 <HashiBot> <Reina> "Hey, honey. Think I can rent a room for a little while? Elkins is a hole and their hospital sucks." Jun 22 04:20:08 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Lobby nurse]** Elkins? You've been there? Oh my gosh. Is that why you look so tired? Jun 22 04:21:55 <HashiBot> <Reina> "Yeah. I... I. There was a lot of scum there, and... and." Jun 22 04:22:31 <HashiBot> <Reina> Reina tries to settle herself, but the fatigue's taking its toll on her. "People did stuff to me. I just want some shelter, I just want to get clean." Jun 22 04:23:12 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Lobby nurse]** Say no more. Please go see the medic, two rooms north, and ask him to take a room. According to the computer, none of our rooms are taken right now, so you should be processed quickly. Jun 22 04:27:13 <HashiBot> <Reina> "Thank you." And away Reina goes. Jun 22 04:27:55 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _Once in the healing machine room with the medic..._ Jun 22 04:28:35 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Medic]** So, I got the mail from the lobby nurse. Looking pretty tired, there. From what I understand, I suppose you want a room? Jun 22 04:29:50 <HashiBot> <Reina> "Yes, please. It's 400, right?" Jun 22 04:30:43 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Medic]** That's right. 400 P$, indefinite use until you check out. Can tolerate it if you need to come see me for whatever reason. Jun 22 04:31:17 <HashiBot> <Reina> She hands the 400 right on over. Jun 22 04:31:27 <HashiBot> <Reina> "You guys have a shower, right?" Jun 22 04:31:57 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Medic]** Of course, all rooms have shower and toilet access. It's spartan, but functional. Jun 22 04:32:12 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Medic]** All individual as well. For patient comfort and privacy. Jun 22 04:32:19 <HashiBot> <Reina> "Gods bless you all." Jun 22 04:32:56 <HashiBot> <Reina> As soon as I'm in the door, I collapse on the bed and doze off. Jun 22 04:34:57 <HashiBot> <Reina> Definitely a long rest. Jun 22 04:38:14 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _Not so fast. :p _ Jun 22 04:38:27 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _187 P$ remaining in the money pouch._ Jun 22 04:39:12 <HashiBot> <Tempest> _Once paid, the medic asks you to follow him to one of the closest possible rooms, Room 203, which is 4 rooms away - one to the north then three east._ Jun 22 04:39:47 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Medic]** There, this is your room. Bed, TV, radio, books. Shower past this door, and the toilets right after the shower. If you need anything, let me know, okay? Jun 22 04:40:16 <HashiBot> <Reina> Reina follows like a zombie, too fatigued to even quip. She just grunts at the medic, closing the door behind her and collapsing into bed. Jun 22 04:40:35 <HashiBot> <Tempest> Long rest? Jun 22 04:40:50 <HashiBot> <Reina> Long rest. The shower and everything can wait. Jun 22 04:41:12 <HashiBot> <Tempest> Okay. Roll me a 1d6.

Felt appropriate to bring you this. Black coffee. I also have a message for you, as strange as it might sound. Jun 22 05:55:29 <HashiBot> <Reina> "That's... okay. What's the message, handsome?" Jun 22 05:58:42 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Medic]** There's this weird Angelic friend of yours who showed up last night. He wanted to tell you he left Arnett. Something about him being afraid he'd been spotted by his superiors, or something like that. He says not to worry about him, and to just do what you promised him. Whatever that is. Jun 22 05:59:38 <HashiBot> <Reina> "That's - yeah, that's fair. I'm glad he thought of me." Jun 22 06:00:03 <HashiBot> <Reina> "Now, uhm... Do you want to join me in bed? 'Cause if you doooon't wrll you better get going, handsome." Jun 22 06:00:30 <HashiBot> <Tempest> **[Medic]** Ha. If I had to join every patient in bed, I think I'd spend more time in bed than doing my job.
