You watch in amusement as Ariane races towards her husband and daughter with a huge smile on her face, though you feel less amused and more frightened when you see Sir Vincent doing the same thing when he spots Sylvie leaving her carriage.

"Home sweet home!" Thierri laughs as he walks over to Marianne. "And I can tell from the smile on your face that you're just as happy as I am..." he says, leaning towards his daughter with a big goofy grin on his face.
"Yes, I -am- happy to be back home," Marianne nods. "But I wish you'd have held off on acting embarrassing for a little while longer..." she sighs.

As the two of them share a happy family moment, you decide to hang back and not interfere... but then you notice Arnaud approaching them.

"Welcome back, Your Highness," Arnaud says with a deep bow. "I understand that your time in Marconetti was rather... eventful."
"Yeah, it definitely wasn't boring," Thierri replies, slapping the old butler on the back. "Things over here didn't go to hell while I was gone, did they?"
"No, the kingdom was thankfully quiet in your absence."
"That's good to hear," he laughs.

After Arnaud gives Thierri a basic summary of what's been going on in Granache over the past week or so, he then walks over to you.

"I also heard that you've gotten yourself into quite a bit of trouble since the last time I've seen you," Arnaud says with a wry grin.

Hooked up with a princess, broke anothers heart, third one tried to freeze me in a duel and was made a knight and I got to stab some dudes. Not to mention I have a family now. Good times.

Arch how do we route change to Nico?
Without completely destroying Slyvie?

>>31335994
maybe a little bit, but nothing to serious thanks to your training. speaking of we need to get more serious with that if you have the time. oh and thanks for sending gerhard by the way.

"It was just some fleshwounds and some assassins, nothing big," you say with a forced smile. "All that training with you really paid off, though."
"So I've heard," Arnaud replies.
"But something good came out of it..."
"Ah, you mean your relationship with my best friend's daughter?" he says with a sly grin.

Huh? How'd he know about that?

"Uh... yeah," you nod. "That's not all, though..."
"Ah, yes. The matter with Agnes Eschenwald," he laughs.
"How did you-" you stare at him.
"I heard all about it from Gerhard," he replies. "He was kind enough to keep me up to date with the goings-on in Marconetti while you and the others were up there... though I have to admit that I'm rather confused as to why exactly Luciana, Elena and Emilio arrived with you," he says, gesturing towards your girlfriend, who seems to have walked over to her younger siblings while you were distracted.

He knows about the assassins but can't put two and two together regarding why Celestino would send his kids here?

>>31337272
or he's letting us get one in after finishing the last several sentences we spoke before we could

Rolled 7

>>31337272
He probably assumed that Celestino could easily take care of the assassins. Gerhard wasn't able to report the extent of the threats against Marconetti due to being in combat and then getting his arm amputated and regrown, so Arnuad had no way of knowing until we arrived.

"Uh... yeah," you sigh. "Some stuff went down while we were up in Marconetti and King Celestino decided that it'd be safer if they stay here in Granache for the time being."
"I figured as much, this must be related to those attacks that Gerhard mentioned," Arnaud says, his expression suddenly becoming rather grim. "But I never would have thought that he'd actually be willing to send his children away," he scowls. "This situation must be far worse than I thought..."
"Don't worry, I'll be sure to fill you in on the matter in a little while," Thierri says, wrapping his arm around the old butler's shoulders. "But I'm sure that you're happy to be able to see your best buddy's kids for the first time in forever..."

With a sigh of resignation, all of the tension that showed in Arnaud's face vanishes in an instant.

"Yes, I can't exactly deny that," Arnaud shakes his head. "And I suppose that I should probably go over to say hello..."

Too true

>>31337399
We're going to have to talk to Sylvie before we get our sword fixed, not right now of course, but we shouldn't put it off too long.

If we have Niklaus fuse our sword and bracelet together without her, when it was her idea in the first place, at least in the quest, would be a dick move, and probably not end well for us.

>>31337459
I'm curious to see what the betting pool was like.

Did anyone take the long odds on something like "exotic dragon girl" or "mysterious eastern lady" just on the off chance that they might sweep the pot with a stunning upset?

>>31337517
it's not about talking to sylvie, it's about being anywhere near vincent when he's got a daughter that is on the verge of tears right next to him. we can talk to sylvie at the feast about finally learning fragment blader

also, we should get her to teach us stone body so that we can turn our body into metal, then have niklaus fuse us with tina and the sword

>>31337552

I'd be interested to see a breakdown of who was betting how much on what, since apparently the topic was hot enough that money was changing hands.

>then have niklaus fuse us with tina and the sword

We should, uh, wait to make sure that Tina is in fact friendly and doesn't hunger for the flesh of the living before doing that.

While Thierri makes his way over to Luciana and her siblings, you take another look around the area... and aside from you, pretty much everyone else is occupied with tearful reunions with their family...

...and Sylvie's looking exceptionally tearful so -maybe- you should give her some space for now.

But then you notice that Rana and Reya seem kind of overwhelmed by everything that's going on right now. After getting the okay from Marianne to leave her with her father for now, you make you way over to the carriage that they're helping to unload.

"Oh," Reya says, glancing at you from over the top of a large suitcase that he's holding. "Hey, Reinhold," he places it on the ground. "We're just trying to make ourselves useful while everyone else is busy."
"Some of us more than others," Rana says with a devilish grin as she places -two- large suitcases on the ground. "What about you, buddy?"


>What do you say?

>>31337818
>and then you NTRed him
We didn't though. Nobody but Andreas knew about his feelings so he kinda is the pathetic nerd here.

>>31337944
"Some of these teary unions, a specific one actually, is scaring me so i decided to put some distance for now. Also, it must be weird for you guys so i may as well keep company for a while."

>>31337944
"Didn't want to interrupt any of the touching moments."

>>31337944

So, as you know there is no adventurer's guild in Granache.

Maybe we could talkt to his majesty about fixing that?

>>31338000
This.

Might also add "I'm scared." with no explanation.

>>31337944
if our hands aren't full with our/mari's stuff then start helping with luggage and say something along the lines of "i wanted to make sure the two of you aren't overwhelmed by all of this. i know reya's a bit of a fanboy for some of the guys here afterall. in all seriousness though, we're quite a bit more lax than marconetti is, but in case you have any questions you can always ask me"

>>31337996

>>31337944
Well, no matter what we say we should help them unload stuff, may as well make ourselves useful.

>>31338073
i like to think that people like arnaud kept it from getting founded out of the fear aquaman would sneak off to it one day

>>31338088
That actually makes a whole lot of sense

"Eh, I didn't want to interrupt any of the touching moments," you say with a shrug as you glance over in Luciana's general direction... and notice that Elena's leaped into Arnaud's arms and is bawling her eyes out.
"Tell me about it," Reya says with a nervous chuckle.
"Not to mention that Reya's like suuuuuper nervous about being around his personal heroes..." Rana teases. "oh my gawd mister arnaud you're like soooooo cool this is like a dream come truuue!" she says in her best impression of her brother's voice while flailing her hands in a mocking manner.
"Ugh, cut that out," he punches her in the shoulder.
"But yeah, I wanted to make sure that you two weren't too overwhelmed by all of this," you say. "I know that a lot of the guys here are a pretty big deal, but Granache is about as far away from formal as it gets."

Because seriously, Thierri's presonality is about as far from what you would have expected from a King as it gets. And even the more serious people like Sir Gregory aren't as bad as they seem at first glance.

Yeah, it feels good to be away from Marconetti's stuffy formal everything, though you'd never say that to Luciana.

Reinhold himself didn't have a lot to do in the army besides playing cops and robbers.

>>31338278
>[2/2]

"I kind of figured as much, but it is a relief to hear it from someone who actually lives here," Reya says with a sigh of relief. "Marconetti's kind of, umm... intense."
"Yeah, and I thought the court life back home was rough," Rana shakes her head. "It'll be nice to not have to walk on eggshells for a change!"
"Don't get -too- comfortable, now..."
"Shut up, you know full well that I am the portrait of professionalism!"

With that said, Rana walks over to you and pats you on the shoulder.

"I think I'll go and see how Sylvie's doing," Rana says. "You can keep watch over Princess Elena while I'm out, right?"
"As usual, you always sticking me with the actual work," Reya grumbles.
"Quit acting like I'm super inconsiderate!" she turns her nose up at him. "Guillaume Arnaud's over with her right now, so now's the perfect opportunity to introduce yourself!"
"...I guess you have a point there..."

>>31338612
I like the plan of waiting until we're off duty, asking her for that magic lesson, and then immediately hitting up Niklaus.

As his sister casually strolls away, Reya looks up at the sky and takes a deep breath.

"Might as well get this over with," he sighs.
"Hey, there's no reason to be so nervous," you say. "Arnaud's always been pretty nice to me, I'm sure it'll be the same with you."
"If you say so..."

With that, the two of you make your way over to where they're talking.

"...and her name's Inaba and she likes to eat hay and sometimes I sneak her some of my vegetables..." Elena chatters on as she holds up Inaba's cage so Arnaud can get a better look.
"That certainly is quite the rabbit you have there," Arnaud says, tapping the corner of the cage.
"You might want to watch your fingers, Uncle Arnaud," Luciana says. "That thing bites if you make it mad."

As Arnaud quickly pulls his hand away, Elena shoots her big sister an angry glare and puffs out her cheeks.

>[1/?]

>>31338770
Feed her to the rabbit

>>31338770

Silly Elena, Arnaud can't sord gud if he has no fingers.

>>31338770

"Inaba isn't an -it-, she's a -she-!" Elena shouts. "And she only bites when -you- act like a jerk!"

And as if to emphasize her master's words, Inaba picks that exact moment to start scratching at the sides of her cage.

"C'mon Elena," Emilio says, suddenly resting a hand on top of his little sister's head. "We haven't seen Uncle Guillaume in forever and I doubt he wants the first thing we do together is break up another of your fights."
"She started it," Elena mumbles.

>[2/?]

>>31338847

We need to fuse the bracelet with Inaba to make the ultimate familiar.

"Watching you two almost made me think that we were back in Marconetti again," you say as you walk up to Luciana.
"Yeah, I'm never going to get homesick if they keep carrying on like they always do," Emilio grumbles.
"And hello again, Renihold," Arnaud laughs. "You've come to defend your lady against the rabbit scourge, I take it?"
"Please, Uncle Guillaume!" Luciana giggles as she scurries to your side.

And then he turns to Reya.

"And who might this fellow me?" he asks.
"Umm..." Elena mumbles, "...him and his sister are who Papa hired to be my bodyguards since Andreas had to stay back home," she pouts. "His name's Reyasalnara..."
"Reyasarima," Reya corrects her. "B- but everyone just calls me Reya so uh..."

Yup, he's nervous.

He's our only bro so far.

Emilio doesn't count yet.

Let him for a bit at least. It is fun
Then we can save him.

>save him from the spaghetti

We must save him, lest he challenge our position as the Arch-Spaghettomancer of Granache.

Yeah, you might as well help him out and spare him some embarrassment.

"We ran into him in town by chance, and then it turned out that King Ceelstino was hiring them to do security at Emilio's party," you shrug. "Oh, the girl over there with the black hair is his sister Rana," you say, pointing to the dragon girl who is now draped over Sylvie.
"Well if Celestino picked you two to look after little Elena here then you must really be something," Arnaud nods. "I suppose the same goes for you over there, am I right?" he says, turning to Karel.

Who is currently doing her best to hide behind Emilio.

>[1/?]

>>31339052

If we're bringing international players Emilio crushes any competition.

>>31339148

Is Arnaud's Daredevil power enough to notice the subtle anatomical oddities in this "boy"?

>>31339148

"P-p--p-pleased to meet you, Mr. Arnaud!" Karel squeaks, her face bright red.
"C'mon," Emiio sighs. "You're always telling me to man up, now it's your turn."

It's really weird to see her and Emilio pretty much switch temperaments like this.

"My name's Karel and I'm Emilio's bodyguard it's really nice to meet you I mean I never would have thought to get the chance to meet a legendary swordsman like you I hope that maybe I'll be able to become as good as you some day I mean I don't want to seem too eager but this is just I mean-"
"He might seem kind of weird right now, but he doesn't usually act like this," Emilio sighs. "He's usually a lot cooler and a lot less... like this."
"Maybe you're starting to rub off on him," Luciana giggles.

SAVE THEM ALL FROM THE SPAGHETTI!

Reinhold need all the pasta he can get to survive.

Marconetti is doing fine exporting their excessive stock here.

>Karel and Emilio start having clandestine encounters

Also I just realized that Karel -> Rakel. Is there a conspiracy?

>>31339255
>Is Arnaud's Daredevil power enough to notice the subtle anatomical oddities in this "boy"?

Gerhard noticed, and Arnaud is presumably at least as perceptive if not more so. I'd wager that HE KNOWS is a safe assumption.

>>31339263

"Yes, well..." Arnaud clears his throat. "...I'm flattered to see that you hold me in such high regard," he says as he extends his hand toward her.
"Um, uh-" Karel stammers, freezing up for a few seconds before shaking his hand. "Ehehehehe... it's really an honor to meet you, Mr. Arnaud!"

As Karel vigorously shakes the old butler's hand with a huge goofy grin on her face, you can't help but smile yourself at how cute this scene is... too bad she's pretending to be a...

"It's a good thing that Karel's a boy," Luciana whispers in your ear, "or else I might be getting kind of jealous right now," she giggles. "Unless you have interests that I don't know about?"

>[3/?]

>>31339374
Of course he has interests you do not know about. You have a lot to learn about Reinhold.

I don't know what hypothetical situation amuses me more:

And for the first time in her short life, Racquel meets a true kindred spirit...

>>31339407

You think the two of them could convince the boys to roleplay those scenes?

>Emilio getting a boner pretend-kissing Karel

>>31339454
They can always dream. I doubt Luci will go far down that road but i am sure with the scenes that just played out, perverted little slut's magination will be running wild.

Wow, what a cunt.

On a more serious note:
"What do you mean? (s)He just looks so happy. I like seeing people happy."

>>31339492

Rana is the chick. Reya is the boy.

That should've been Reya.

I'll support awkward silence then.

Eh, because why not.

>snappy comeback

>>31339528
Yes, that's definitely it, no double-secrets here. Nope, none at all.

How long before people start noticing that we act just a bit odd around Karel? Almost like we have a secret or something...

To be fair, he should be dead right now. DEAD. If not for his sword cheating to hold all his shattered ribs and vertebra in place that fairy never would have gotten up.

Come on, we everybody talked about that. Let's just agree that it came out of the blue.

>>31339558
>snappy comeback

Gotta keep our game up. Though "I like seeing people happy" isn't exactly "snappy".

>>31339561
As far as they know Reinhold could act like that around every boy his age.

>snappy comeback
Now how snappy are we talking here? Like just a little snappy, or a full on counter-innuendo saturation bombardment?

>>31339635
So snappy that it makes West Side Story look tame.

Arch, I've been following this quest from the very beginning and can say that it's interesting and somewhat enjoyable.

But for the love of god your pacing sucks shit.

Jesus fucking Christ.

>>31339558
Hey Arch, since I have to go to bed and might not be here if you do one of those Q&A things i'll just ask now, how do you actually factor in the rolls? What's the system here?

>>31339663
First three rolls, best of three.


>writing

>>31339663
We do not roll much, but when we do, we just try and beat a DC. Pretty straightforward.

>>31339666
So it's the best of 3 rolls [possible mods because of situations, etc] vs the opponents best of 3 [possibly with mods]?

>>31339685

Nah, the opponent does not roll, I think. It's a fixed DC.

>>31339685
see>>31339674

>>31339666
>>31339666
I think our rolls should be based on a fixed amount of marshmallows you can fit in your mouth and still say turtle.

mini or jumbo?

"What do you mean?" you say, turning to Luciana. "He just looks so happy, and I like seeing my friends happy. But if you're jealous of something as simple as that, then I don't know if things will work out between us..."
"Wha-" Luciana stammers, staring at you for a few moments before she realizes that you were just messing with her. "Why you little..."

While Luciana pouts and pretends to be mad at you, you pretend to ignore her... and notice that Arnaud's making his way towards the castle entrance.

"Where're you going?" Elena asks as Arnaud starts to walk away.
"I'm sure that we'll have plenty of time to catch up," Arnaud says, "but your arrival here was completely unannounced so I need to get rooms prepared for all..." he counts on his fingers "...seven of you," he sighs.
"He didn't send a letter in advance to say that we were coming along?" Luciana asks.
"Messenger birds can be intercepted mid-flight," he replies. "Though it's certainly caused a bit of a headache for me, it was best that your trip here be known by as few people as possible."
"That makes sense," she nods. "I'm sorry that we've caused you to have to do more work, though."
"And -I'm- sorry that the situation in Marconetti has degenerated to the point where it was necessary that you leave home," he replies. "This isn't your fault, so don't blame yourselves."

With a bow, the old butler makes his way into the castle proper.

We're not doing the same routine we did last time.

Also Karel needs her teasing.

>>31339736
>hang out here for a little while longer

>>31339736
>see how Sir Gregory's family is doing

>>31339736
Just hang back until it looks like Marianne is ready to head inside. It's becasue we spend all our time talking with everyone that we never progress.

>>31339768
If you aren't used to PGQ's pacing by thread 154 maybe you should leave.

>>31339736
>>hang out here for a little while longer

>>31339736
>hang out here for a little while longer

Give Karel and Reya some good-natured ribbing for going all fan...boy... over Arnaud.

Good chance to gently build up their resistance to teasing before things normalize and we get back to our rowdy dinner routine with Nico and Sylvie (now with Rana for extra lewds), or else they won't last a week.

>>31339736
>hang out here for a little while longer

>>31339777
I've been here since the first thread and I'm familiar with how you guys do things, doesn't mean I have to like it.

While I would like to keep going for a few more hours, I hae a headache and it's late so I'm calling it a night here.
Next thread will be Wednesday night.

Thanks for playing!

>>31339851
>While I would like to keep going for a few more hours

You're not ending any sooner that you usually do, though you did start later.

Cheers.
