"Uh, 'after we get back?'" you ask.
"Ohh, I didn't tell you!" Citrine snaps her fingers. "My husband's latest painting was bought by the KING OF MARCONETTI himself!"
"You don't say..."
"I know, right!? His son's having a birthday party in a few days, so the two of us are going to be there for the grand unveiling!"

"Aw man, I never thought I'd ever get the chance to meet an actual KING... I bet you're all jealous now, aren't you?" Citrine teases.

Looks like this charade will end quickly but it's up to her if she wants to end it now.

Tactical retreat with Marie. She's going to find out anyway so it's a question if now is better than in the middle of a Royal Ball.

Jesus Christ. Can we just avoid the hell out of Citrine? This woman is oblivious as hell and thinks it's a good idea to make it obvious we grew up in a brothel.

sure am, must be exciting to be around all those nobles and everything. might want to watch out for the princess if you see her though, i hear she's trouble.

>>27996083
This. Revealing now or in the middle of a ball is sort of our only option.

>>27996247
>Being this ashamed of our past
I mean, I don't see a point in bringing it up but I don't think we should hide from it.

>>27996258
we can talk more about it with marie afterwards, for Citrine we should reveal at the ball

>>27996269
Agreed. Does anyone else expect someone to try to blackmail us with it at some point?

>>27996285
Except Citrine has very low tact and that could cause a huge scene. It might be better she figure this out now instead of freaking out in front of royalty.

>>27996255
>get here too late to suggest that we ask the Princess if this would be an appropriate time, rather than have it come out later
Ah well.

>>27996269
Yes. No normal person would want to see that kind of shit brought up all the time so /everyone/ knows, especially after working hard to get out of it. And seriously, anyone who thought it was a good idea to see Citrine from the start had to be a real idiot if they were surprised she was going to spill the beans.

>>27996287

>>27996006
>I might see you there, but I'd like it if you stopped trying to let the whole fucking world know about my past before I can even decide whether to do it with people I know. Like you did just now, and before

>>27996287
Enough people already know, no reason for blackmail.

>>27996340
First time was because Sylvie and Nico were eavesdropping. Second was because Marie brought it up herself when she voiced that rumor.

>>27996340
This. From an OOC and IC perspective, it's pretty grating and rude on her part.

>>27996304

Thats what the asking marie is for.

She knows whats up, she knows what we'll be asking.

It'll be for her to decide.

>>27996340
As far as she knows, we're no one special. Implying that she knew us and was a whore doesn't mean that we were at the brothel, presumably we might have seen her on the street or something.

Sure, it's embarrassing for the royal guard, but she doesn't know we're in that, or that we're with a princess right now.

>>27996340
Lets do this. I'd rather this get settled now so she doesn't become this weird friend-but-an-annoying-plot-device-we-should-avoid

>>27996364
All we need to do is give her the look and Marie's smart enough to take it from there.

>>27996340
This, but way more politely.

>>27996340
You are a damn moron.
>>27996360

The mix up just went from "he thought I was his childhood friend" (from what the maid told her) to "he thought I was a prostitute."

>>27996422
HI WATASHIWA

>>27996434
Oh shit

I didn't even think about this

>>27996347
Eh, If its not common knowledge some unscrupulous noble might think we were trying to keep it a secret. Which would be fun, for us.

>>27996340
This. I think we have the right to be a bit offended. So far we are psychopathically violent to any man who slights us but can't even try to get a little upset at a woman.

>>27996434
None of which Citrine knows about.

It needs to be addressed, which means telling her where we work, but probably at the ball.

There's no reason to yell at her for something we did while frozen.

And we really shouldn't blow Marie's cover in town at all.

>>27996434

I think Melanie's already explained that Citrine was a childhood friend.

>>27996456
Well yes, Reinhold is 17.

They don't get it.
>>27996438
What are you talking about?

>>27996387
she's the kind of person that isn't ashamed of her past and she probably doesn't see any reason we would be. After all she's the one that was taking dick for money. Compared to that what does Reinhold have to be ashamed of?

>>27996465
>It needs to be addressed, which means telling her where we work, but probably at the ball.
>There's no reason to yell at her for something we did while frozen.

We can say we work at the royal guard and may be forced to attend. We don't have to say Marianne is the princess.

>>27996340
Please, this.

>>27996465
My comment had nothing to do with Citrine or the situation at hand, only making an observation about something cliche Arc can throw at us later when we're in private with Princess Marianne.

>>27996456
See: >>27996360
It's not really her fault. The first time was supposed to be a private conversation and the second time it was brought up by someone else.

This has only been a problem because we kept it a secret ourself.

>>27996433
The vote is over but the debate is just beginning.

>>27996497
its time!
> time for what?
time to argue endlessly!

>>27996434
I think after Citrine giving us a hug in front of her and Citrine naming her son after us the Princess would work out that she's still our childhood friend and the whore part is incidental to all of that. Marianne is pretty smart.

>>27996465
Citrine will know who Marianne is at the party. We aren't saying to bellow who she is to the entire crowd, but quietly telling Citrine now means that we avoid potential awkwardness at the ball. There's little point in keeping this secret.

>>27996340
No. Just no. In this case Marianne brought it up first. Not Citrine. All she did was give us a hug.

>>27996496
>This has only been a problem because we kept it a secret ourself.

Except that's wrong. Who the hell goes blabbing about their past, especially about something like that?

And private conversation? She yelled about it in /public/. Even if you were a commoner and got out of it, you wouldn't want that brought up

>>27996456
It's a habit of anon.. Especially after THEY TOUCH AND MOCK MAI WAIFU.

>>27996512
She blabbed that she was a whore, and only after someone asked.

She never said anything about what we did and how we know each other, just that we were old friends.

>>27996561
That we came out of a brothel?

>>27996512
While she did mention it publicly, I don't believe she was YELLING it.
I;m fine with Reinhold being reticent about bring up his past, but Citrine is not and never has been. Asking her politely to refrain from bringing it up is fine (bad memories being the excuse that comes to mind), but I see no justification for being an ass while doing so.

>>27996556
to be fair, the only female who's been mean to us is the princess, who we aren't allowed to punch anyway.

>>27996512
see this >>27996483

>>27996561
So that it's handy, the following took place on the street in the middle of the day:
---------------------------
Before you can react, Citrine runs towards you at full speed and traps you in a strong hug.

"oh my god you've gotten so handsome I can't believe it you made it this far reinhooooooold" Citrine says, holding you in a vicelike grip.
"Um... hey." you reply, unsure how to react to something like this.
"Oh... oh wow..." she finally lets you go. "I heard about you winning the swording tourney, but I never expected to see you out here..."
"Uh, yeah," you reply. "So, um, what brings you out here?"
"Ehehe... we've both come pretty far from that old whorehouse, huh!" she says, with a warm grin.
"Yeah, thank God."
---------------------------
So yeah, she publicly (but not loudly) implied us both being from a whorehouse.

>>27996584
>the only female who's been mean to us is the princess
only applies since we stated at this guard job.

>>27996483
Growing up in a brothel. It's not something you're necessarily ashamed of, but it's not something you blab off. I don't know about you, but I wouldn't want to tell semi-strangers that I grew up in a shitty neighborhood, at a brothel no less, was abused and molested as a child. It wouldn't be something you'd tell someone unless you know them very well after a long time. You tell your best friend or lover that kind of shit.

Meanwhile archelon doesn't address this despite being very aware there's an argument. I hope he does it IC at least

>>27996483

Wasn't he sexually abused? That can leave an awful impact at a young age.

>>27996628
Thankfully this quest is VN/Anime style.
If it was aspiring to realism, I would have a lot of choice word for Arc's portrayal of child molestation and its mental impact on the MC.
But he's not aspiring to realism, so IDGAF.

>>27996483
Of course not because she's dense as hell.

>>27996628
I'm not sure if this is even remotely the same, but my mom was paranoid schizophrenic. I used to hide it a bit when I was growing up but after a while I just stopped giving a fuck. I think in Reinhold's position I'd be alright with people knowing about my shitty childhood.

Granted, I'm not sure if that fits Reinhold's character or the scenario but there's my two cents.

>>27996693
Some people handle it better than others. I'm fairly well adjusted, and I was raped when I was 5.

"Uhh... Marie?" you turn to the Princess.
"Actually..." Marianne says, "...the two of us will also be going to that same party."
"Oh, really?" Citrine says, holding her hand to her mouth in surprise.
"Yes, we're actually in town today to do some pre-trip shopping," Marianne replies.
"So that means that you... Oh, I get it!"

You brace for impact.

"Marius was telling me that Prince Emilio was a huge fan of swordsmen and fancy swords and that kind of stuff, so of course they'd invite the best swordsman in Granache to his birthday party... I bet he'll be so excited to meet you!" Citrine says, clasping her hands together.
"I'm sure he will," Marianne says, smirking.
"And I take it that you'll be his escort, Marie?"

You turn to the Princess, wondering how she'll respond.

"...something like that," Marianne replies.
"Well, I look forward to seeing the two of you there," citrine replies with a warm smile. "And you'll finally be able to meet Marius, too!"
"One suggestion, if I may?"
"Hm?"
"You should try and keep from being so open about your past around the nobles in Marconetti," Marianne says in a serious tone. "They're quite... judgemental, and it will save you a lot of grief."

"You do have a point there," Citrine says, pointing her finger in the air. "I don't really care since it's all in the past, but Marius was telling me that I ought to be a bit more secretive."
"Yeah, that might be a good idea," you say.
"Plus, it'd be pretty bad if some noble said something mean about me and a certain overly protective person ended up punching them in the face for it..." she giggles.
"...yes, that -would- be an issue," Marianne replies, looking at you with a sly grin.

Oh, I actually totally forgot about Taki.
He was on duty during the visit, so it's excusable. And we did want to (and should) bro-up with him.
I missed the thread he was in, or I would have suggested to the Marconetti princess that we have a duel. She would have been all over it. We'll see him at the party though, and we'll hang out.

>>27997286
We actually did suggest a duel but he didn't have time and said maybe later when we visited Marconetti.

>>27997286
We did try and have a duel if I remember. He said he couldn't because he was on the job.

>>27997286

We did. He refused citing his guard duties.

>>27997299
>>27997308
>>27997321
Anon plz.
I acknowledged that he was on guard duty. I'm saying we should have suggested to Princess L that we have a duel, rather than privately to Taki. L would have, I think, been excited about the idea.

"I guess I'll be seeing you in Marconetti then," you say.
"Looking forward to it!" Citrine replies, smiling. "Well, I guess I should stop holding you two up..."

Citrine then gives you another big hug, and then heads off to look for more canvases. Trying to keep from eating up any more of the Princess's time, you quickly grab three of the same type of sketchbook that you bought last time along with a handful of pencils and pay for them.

"Looking to do some sketching while we're in Marconetti?" Marianne asks as the two of you walk out of the store.
"Dunno how much I'll actually be able to do, but yeah," you reply.

I presume we're eating at the bakery anyway, so get the gift first.
We'll totally get free food by giving Wilhelm the present before ordering.

"At the very least we've got a decently long trip there to get some sketching in."

>>27997455
Ask Marie what she wants us to do.

T-thanks for supporting our hobby, capatcha

>>27997455
>how about we find something to buy the wilhelms' baby
then something to eat, unless she is hungry now.

>>27997616
Jeez Anon, why even have a quest thread. If we let all the NPCs make decisions, might as well tell Arc to write a book instead.

>>27997455

[x] Ask marie which she might prefer

>>27997455
>how about we find something to buy the wilhelms' baby
we'll probably get a bite to eat there

>writing

>>27997698
OP do you mind if we have conversation/discussion or make silly jokes in between your writing? Its not like bump limit matters since you can make a new thread.

>>27997698
Alright, time for us to begin discussing what we want to do for the next post in earnest now.

>>27997544
"Who knows Luciana might let me do a sketch of her."

>>27997766

We're gonna give her a complex at this rate. We'll sketch everyone but her.

>>27997750
We buy a stuffed animal. Kids outgrow rattles but they'll cling on to a teddy bear for a long time.

>>27997725
I actually like the discussion, but the shitposting is annoying.
The biggest problem is the people who can't tell the difference between the two, though.

Lets make Marianne jealous of all the other girls we're sketching.

>>27997650
Yep, it's a good idea to make decisions without consulting the people those decisions affect. Good plan.

>>27997818
What is shitposting?
Chinhold?
Harem discussion?
Jokes that get spammed?
The ebonics in this thread?

>>27997818
>The biggest problem is the people who can't tell the difference between the two, though.
Easy. If people are posting fanart it's shitposting.

>>27997797
Weren't we planning on doing a sketch of her and the baby last thread?

>>27997818
>The biggest problem is the people who can't tell the difference between the two, though.

Yea, this gets on my nerves too, especially when it comes IRL.

>>27997818
Why is it annoying? We're just having fun while you post. I'm mad you have the audacity to say I shitpost

>>27997847

not sure if it was confirmed, though.

>>27997841
>>27997842

If you're complaining about shitposting, you are shitposting. End of story.

Clarification, not a complaint. Although I am aware of the irony.

>>27997847
Sounds like a good idea if we have enough time to.

>>27997818
>but the shitposting is annoying
I don't see any shitposting. Do you?

>>27997847
I don't know if this was a thing but it sure as hell is now

>>27997866
Because you're shitting on someones lawn

>>27997847
Yes.
I suggested it and people liked it and it made me happy that people liked my idea and my parents were wrong and I'm not worthless the internet thinks I have good thoughts sometimes

>>27997818

You heard it here first, PGQ QM thinks his players are shitposters. More at the next QTG

That's what wrong. It's like "My husband only punched me in the shoulder this time"

>>27997994
Could be worse. Do you want me to write insufferably fluffy and formal text, like I do when I want to shitpost in SQ?

the problem with democracy is that people are stupid

>>27997994
I agree. They don't generally come in until later though, and it's fairly easy to tell who those two worse offenders are when they do appear...

They barge in and say "all your opinions/votes are WRONG", and then everybody is mad.

"So, Marie..." you turn to the Princess, "want to go find someting to get for the Wilhelms' baby?"
"That's right, I'd almost forgotten..." Marianne replies. "There's a toy store not too far from here, so I suppose we'll be able to find something there."

She then leads you down the street, stopping in front of a small store with several toy boats and stuffed animals in the window.

"Sir Gregory used to take me here when I was younger..." she says as she opens the door. "It's not the largest store, but their toys were always quite durable."

As the two of you enter the store, you're surprised by how colorful everytihing is. Brightly-colored stuffed llamas and bears, wooden blocks painted in primary colors... had you come in here when you were younger, you'd never want to leave.

"The baby is only three weeks old, so most of this wouldn't see any use any time soon," Marianne says as she looks around.
"Yeah, they can't really do much," you reply.

You then follow Marianne to a section of the store with toys intended for babies: teething rings, rattles, toy keys and the like.

"Hm..." Marianne says as she looks them over. "I don't think they'd appreciate something that would cause a lot of noise, since they do run a business..."
"So these are out too?" you ask.
"I suppose something like a stuffed animal would be best."
"Yeah, that sounds like a good idea," you say as you look around.

Searching for something that wouldn't be too large for a baby, three things catch your eye: a small stuffed bear, a fuzzy stuffed alpaca, and a fluffy stuffed wolf.

"Hm, one of those might be good," Marianne says as she picks one up.

>>27998253
I don't think she's into stuffed animals, and even if she is i think that it would be way to familiar for our station.

I'm not sure if the princess wants a stuffed animal but I guess it wouldn't be a bad thing to ask about.

If that's the case, I'd want to be a bear.

But I doubt it.

You had to know you were poisoning the proceedings with an image like that.

We can at least ask if she'd like one.

Friends give gifts to each other after all.

that and the alpaca might eat his hands.....

>>27998341

>>27998397
we are her friend though

>>27998397
>implying there's that big a difference when she's sixteen and we're the only guy she interacts with within ten years of her age
If anyone's gonna get her a stuffed animal, it would be us.

Not for long

>>27998426
We're going Sylvie route though.

Yeah, no.

No we're not and that's semifinal.

>>27998435
But best girl never wins.

>>27998451
But h-how will we teaser her if we're dating the princess?

>>27998435
So far we're not going any route. If we were going Sylvie route we'd be dating already considering how much she wants our dick.

>>27998253

And I say we pick up an alpaca for Sylvie.

>>27998476
>tfw alpaca-zoned by qt bodyguard

>>27998476
NO! a trio set of alpacas! one for the princess, one for Nico, and one for Sylvie. why? for reasons.

Let's buy all the maids alpacas while we're at it.

"How about this alpaca?" you say as you pick one up.
"Well, it is cute," Marianne says, looking at it. "Do you think they'd like it?"
"I don't see why they wouldn't... but you're the one who's buying the gift in the first place so the final decision's all yours."
"That is true... I suppose I'll go with the alpaca after all."

Marianne then scours through the store's stock of stuffed alpacas until she finds one that she deems to be suitably fluffy. After giving the toystore a final once-over to make sure that there isn't something even better to buy, she heads to the counter to pay for it.

Don't act like a tool, guys.

They are really fluffy. We could get ourself a stuffed animal as well, they're manly.

>>27998545

This is the best response

>>27998545

Just buying one seems a bit presumptuous.

>>27998545

hey Archelon, sense ponies don't exist in this world, do they instead have "My Little Alpacas" then?

Only if we could do it surreptitiously without her seeing.

But that's just fucking creepy on second thought.

>>27998649
Got to agree with this, anon. If you're gonna buy it just give it to her.

>>>/mla/ lamafucker

Clearly she's the bear here.

>>27998758

I think alpaca suits princess the best.

Ice magic ranged attack = spit.

Slyvie is the bear (FIST)

Nico is the wolf (Slashing attack with her spear)

>>27998778
Aren't llamas the ones who spit?

>>27998778
We need more animals for Melanie and ourselves and Monique.

>>27998778
>wolf (Slashing attack
You don't know much about wolves, huh?

>>27998787

alpacas spit too

>>27998787
They both spit.

>>27998795
Monique's a pig, Melanie is a mouse.

Reinhold's spirit animal changes since it's directly tied to the Princess' opinions.

>Buy toy for Sylvie
Heavily encourages romantic interest in her, and given her crush on us, would be a big leap down her route that not enough of us want.

>Buy toy for Nicolette
I don't think she's into stuffed animals.

>Buy toy for Marianne
Seems like a breach of etiquette between princess and bodyguard.

>Buy toy for maid
Maid a shit.

>Buy toy for Taki
Only correct choice.

>>27998807
hey, pigs are very nice animals

>>27998805
