You toss and turn, the rays of sunlight illuminate the surface of your eyelids. Now is not the time to be sleeping.

You sit up, and take the time to look around your humble abode. No one else is in here except for you. Standing up and looking outside, you see

>Large swaths of grassland and forest, some of your tribe's members are drying skins from last night's hunt.

>Rolling blue waves that gently rock the vessle you call home. Calm seas like this are a good day to hassle merchant ships.

>Forests of trees and bamboo, the cicadas hum at an impressive volume. It's unusual that sensei is no where to be found.

>An interior garden decorated with marble statues that freshly lines the outset of the courtyard, your father's servants and maids scramble about to prepare breakfast.

>The edge of a cliffside, on the face of the rolling mountains that protect the monastary that your clan has called home for generations. You can see the adults performing martial arts drills.

>The dusty, worn boards that line the side of the saloon, Several horses are tied up in front. The bartender is busy sweeping up the pieces of glass that used to make up the windows that were broken from last night's fight.

Har! The seas are calm, the winds are in your favor. Today is a good day for fun, and profit. Your boots slide out from under your bed with a flick of your ankles

You throw on your overshirt and pants, lace your boots, and tie your scarf on tight. No doubt the captain has already set sail for the nearest trade wind. You can hear the sound of footsteps and voices above, yelling at one another and barking orders. It's time to get on the job.

Walking upwards out of the quarters, you spot the ol' Quartermaster. The one who never liked you.

He just shouted something, something about being lazy, and good for nothing, sleeping half the day and forgot you even existed yar har har etc.

You should be amazed that he even remembers your name. He's shouting it at you now to get your attention.

Nobody who knows real pirates will believe he is a pirate, because maintaining that level of good looks should be impossible while living on a pirate ship.

For this reason, he has no luck with pirate wenches despite his good looks, as they all think he's a liar.

>>33757870
Nobody voted to be named Jack Black. We voted to be named Jack Albator, who's nicknamed Black Jack.
Which, is a reference to one of Leiji Matsumoto's characters, the space pirate Captain Harlock, who was known as Albator in french speaking counters, and to Osamu Tetsuka's Black Jack.

"KNAVE!" He shouts, being named 'Jack' has its downsides, that nickname will haunt you forever.
His white whiskered beard bellowing with his row of wooden teeth. "MAIN DECK, OR I WILL FLAY YE ALIVES, I WILL"

He may have never had good teeth, well-structured face, perfectly straight legs, a functioning left ear, or any of your stunning good looks; but in their place, he had a terrifying howl for a voice that could turn milk into curds.

Walking out onto the main deck, you can see your crewmates scurry back and fourth as a bearded man near the front continues to yell orders at each and every whelp on deck. He points a stern finger at you.
The pathetic rats scurry back and forth with ropes and lengths of chain.

"Knave! Yer on sails! Get yer lazy ass to it!"

You take your post next to the Sail Master, pulling at lengths of rope and cord, knotting them off at the posts and tying the loose ends into knots.

It takes only a moment for you to realize that you're not heading toward the trade routes at all. Instead wheeling the ship around to face the nearest land mass.

"Hey! Are we headed to port!?"

The Sail Master was always the nicest person.

"Aye! Capt'n orders! He claims a storm is near!"

The skies are blue, the water is calm, and the wind is in your favor, but you know better than to distrust the Captain. He has a sixth sense about these things. Your shoulders weaken, and resolve leaves your body.
This ship was already docked in port for several days, or at least long enough for you to make new enemies with the patron gamblers at the bars and whorehouses, which is another thing that you are remarkably talented at.

Maybe you can spend the next few nights hidden away from the drunken rabble that no doubt wants their money back. You would prefer to keep both of your hands.

The sails are lowered, the customs officers are doled out a nice big 'tip' for their hard efforts. The crew slowly starts to file off the ship to the welcoming arms of merchants and peddlers who await with their wares off the edge of the docks.
And as the Captain predicted, the sky has started to grey, the surf has started to chop, and the wind bellows cold and unforgiving. A storm is approaching, and it is no ordinary storm.

None of that interests you though, what does interest you is finding the nearest place to hide and staying there for as long as needed. You grab anything you don't want stolen from one of the many hidden holes you've made for yourself throughout the ship. Including a great captain's coat that the Captain himself once gave to you to 'hold' during once of his active nights at the pub.

And he would nail you to the hull if he found out that you were still holding it for him.

Stuffing it away. You gather the captain's coat, some of your winnings (got to start somewhere), and a small deck of (maybe marked) cards to take with you to the shore.

Slipping off to avoid the watchful eye of the officers. You quickly notice that your original plan of sticking with the Quarter Master to frighten the grifters has quickly sunk. Him and the Captain are no where to be found.

You continue along the docks, hoping to at least find a shadowy place to enter the town. Soon you are walking along the shoreline as the sun sets and thunder rumbles in the distance. The city chief is beginning to set patrols out further past the docks as dusk settles. The first drops of rain start to fall from the sky, accompanied with thunderous flashes.

On the shorelight, illuminated by the setting sun, is an animal of some kind. Tide is starting to wash away, yet at the same time, it continues to sit and watch. It remains completely still as you approach it.

It's...
A small Fox. That's strange, Foxes are not native to this land. Which means it must have been dropped off or escaped from one of the peddlers at port.
What's more strange about it, is the glossy yellow coat that it sports. You've seen foxes before, or their skins at least, you know they should be a healthy shade of red or light brown.

This one doesn't even move, instead it sits completely still, patiently watching you on your approach.
You expect it to turn around and bolt away soon. Step by step, you walk closer and closer to it.

You are now within arms reach of the little fox. It continues to sit and patiently watch you. It cares not that the rain is starting to come down harder, or the lightning that is coming down. It only seems to sit, and watch.

You quickly notice something, there's something in its mouth. A rolled up piece of paper that seems completely unaffected by the downpour of rain that is now coating the both of you.

It stands up and presents the paper proudly. It elegantly unrolls the parchment that stretches all the way down to its paws. You kneel down to read it.

Lots of unfamiliar runes and letters dot the page. There's some part of it near the bottom that looks like a very elaborate signature.

"That's, er, nice little guy, but how does this-"

-Bzzt-

-POW-

Like a lightning clap, the world glows an extremely bright pink, before fading to black.

GGarrrgghhh.

That's the last time you go drinking.

"Hey!"

A voice is calling out in the darkness.

"-h G- Di- I do i- wr-ng? S- s-rr- s-rr-y!"

You're not amused by the mumbling, if someone is talking to ye, they should speak clearly! Otherwise they don't feel you are worth their time.

"Argh, SPEAK UP! I can't hear a thing that ye are saying!"

Speaking of which, it's clearly night by now. You're not sure how long you've been out, or where you are right now. All that you can tell, is that there is inky blackness with the faintest hints of voices occurring somewhere off in the distance.

"HEY! I'MS TALKING TO YOU!"

"H- on I- y- st- don- mov-"

The mumbling will drive you mad before the darkness will!

The blackness peels itself back, and the sun shines through. Revealing the world to you.

"ARE YOU OKAY? OH GODS I THOUGHT I SCREWED UP THE SUMMONING SPELL BUT THEN YOU SHOWED UP AND-"

"That's enough!" you yell, scraping pieces of- something plant like- off of you.

You finally get a good look at your attacker.

She stands shorter than you are, while clearly being younger. Her outfit is some kind of far-off outfit that you occasionally see the rich people from the far east wear. You had always wondered how they managed to stay clothed when all they wore was a glorified blanket that they just tied around their bodies.

Yet, here is one right now, shamelessly clutching the blanket she calls clothes close to her and stammering.

Strangest of all, though, is that she has green hair.

Wait, something behind her just moved, is there someone hiding behind her?

"G-Greetings! I'm Keiko Canele. And I am from the Biscotti Special-"

IT MOVED AGAIN, Something behind her is moving back and fourth really quickly

You can't stand for this!

"Lady, please! There's something behind you!"
"Eh!?"

She spins around, and suddenly, the large thing behind her is now waving around in front of you. It's clinging to her back!

The fuzzy monster continues to wave back and forth, inches away from your face. It may even be considering you as its next victim!

THERE IS NO TIME TO WASTE

Putting your best brawler skills to work, fist after fist flies at the wayward menace. Each blow stopping fraction of an inch away from the girl's back.

It dodges, and weaves, and snakes around each of your fists with brutal accuracy. It dances and bows with each whiff.

Scurvy-ridden landlubber, IT'S MOCKING YOU!

Your once light pace of blows and punches turns into a flurry of punches, slaps, and pushes as your hands look for anything to attack, anything to get a good hold against the ravenous mass that continues to flee from your stalwart fists!

"RAH RAH RAH RAH RAH RAH RAH RAH RAH RAH RAH RAH RAH RAH RAHHHH"

Suddenly, your right hand connects, balling around the 'fur' and into a fist you throw the beast into the path of your left fist. Making a circular motion with your shoulders, your fists amp up until a steady barrage of punches! Each one connecting with more deadly force than the last!

-pomf- -pomf- -pomf- -pomfpomfPomfPomfPomf-

AND HERE COMES THE RIGHT HOOK THAT ONCE PUT A 40 YEAR OLD BRUISER ON PERMANENT SHORE LEAVE

-POOOOOMMMMMFFFFF-

The beast spins around, behind her again as it makes an arcing motion around her waist, she spins around to face me.

AND THE MONSTER IS NOW INCHES FROM HER NECK, SHE'S TREMBLING AT THE DANGER HER LIFE IS FACED WITH!

"I SHALL SAVE YOU, YOUNG LASS!"

HERE IT COMES AGAIN!

The fuzzy mass swiftly dodges out of the way, and my right knuckle makes bare contact with her cheek.

No anon, you have to be gentle with the Fluffy Tail.

Damn it, I was doing so well, too.

I figured I could make a (really fucking) dumb joke between posts. I thoroughly enjoyed the pomf boxing to be honest

>>33761065
Does this mean she won't let us touch her tail?

"uuuu.."

Hmm?

"uuuuUUUUUUUU- I'M TELLLLLLING!"

She immediately turns to flee, her entire body snaps into action as it makes a quick trail of fur as she sprints ahead of you. She's already several paces ahead before you realize that you should probably follow her.

"Wait! Young Lass! That parasitic fur-worm has gouged its claws into your spine!"

In the distance, you can hear a faint "Kyaaaaaaaaa" noise. It may be too late for her.

You chase her off the stone monument you were standing on, down the pathway that leads to it, and into the woods that surround it. She fades from sight with the monster in tow. Leaving you alone in the woods. Birds chirp, some kind of insect buzzes, and the warmth of the noon day begins to soak into your clothes.

>Keep following the path she took, maybe you can catch up with her.
>Explore on your own, you won't get anywhere if you just stand here all day.
>Go back where you started from, one of your crew will probably come searching for you eventually.

>>33761353
>Keep following the path she took, maybe you can catch up with her.

We're a noble hearted rogue, trying to save a poor girl from a horrible monster eating her spine.

>>33761353
>>Keep following the path she took, maybe you can catch up with her.
Best find her, she doesn't seem to realize the thing is there. If she lets it stay, it'll implant eggs into her spine.

>>33761353
explore on your own

>>33761353
>Explore on your own

>>33761353
Follow her.

>>33761353
Follow her. Need to protect her from the fluff monster.

>>33761353
Follow her! We might still be able to save her!

And if it is too late, hopefully we can strike the beast down before it extricates itself from her body. We'd stand no chance if that thing jumped us from behind, being that agile.

>>33761353
>Keep following the path she took, maybe you can catch up with her.
Now I feel kinda bad.

>>33761541
hopefully when we catch up there will be other people to explain to us that no, it's a tail and we can get on with the inevitable mental BSOD as we come to terms with this. Fortunately, we will have Fluffy Tail to give us comfort in this trying situation.

>Follow her!

going to start writing

What kind of pirate doesn't explore when given the chance?

>>33761842
Fluufy tails thats why.

>>33761886
Or parasitic fur-worms, as the case may be.

>>33761842
The kind who in some fashion, cares about women.

We either raped and pillaged, or were sort-of gentlemen. Based on our actions so far, I'd say it's the latter.

>>33761918
A red hot sword should be enough to burn the creature off.

>>33761938
That might be dangerous for the girl. Since boxing failed, next time we must try wrestling.

how long do we expect to be paralyzed for when she shrieks at us to let go of her tail?

Less then when she shrieks at us to keep going.

No, you can't give up on her just yet, there could still be time. She's too young to have all of it taken away from her.

Your footsteps increase in pace and volume. The woods speed by at a blistering pace as the trees start to thin, making way for a small river that runs parallel to the path.

Up ahead on the path are two figures, the young girl, and a taller girl. The young girl is clutching at the waist of the taller girl.

They both come into clear view as you approach. The younger girl, Keiko, hides behind the taller girl.

This new girl looks older than you, but only by a few years. She's every bit the image of elegance that you could picture a foriegn beauty to look like. She wears the same blanket as the younger girl, and on her back

IS THE SAME PARASITE AS BEFORE!

"You two! Watch out! they-"

She approaches you, as the younger girl stands back.

"Hi." she says

"Hey?"

THWACK.

You've been thumped on the head before. It's not exactly an uncommon occurance for you. Usually it happens when the lads get in a fight, when the quartermaster is having a bad day, or just when you swindle people out of their money in general.

Never, ever have you been knocked in the head by a girl, especially one that is as high class as this one.
It feels humbling, but at the same time, mildly exotic? You're not sure how to describe that feeling.

She moves her hand back to her side.
"Don't do that." She says, the green one now clutching her waist.
"Do what?! But. The fluffy monster, it's like!"
"They're tails, you buffoon, T-A-I-L-S."

You don't see the resemblance at all. They're more like bags of fluff then they are

"I.
Uh.
Um."

"I am Atsuko Crostade. I am the priestess of the local shrine." She replies, giving a short bow.

You've never seen someone with purely yellow hair either. Most of the women that you have known like that usually paint themselves to be that way.

>>33762660
Now let's fight her tail.

>>33762660
People don't have tails, but these people do have tails. Clearly this means we've been abducted by witches and should panic.

Which isn't far from the truth all things considered.

>>33762797
Or we've died and gone somewhere weird. Still, panic seems reasonable.

>>33762823
Ah shit, are we gonna have to roll for Sanity?

This is worrysome. The creatures are messing with their minds.

>>33762876

>>33762876

Can we roll for fluffy tail comfort?

Walking toward the shrine with the two girls, you notice the foiliage start to decrease. Replaced with well-trimmed grass and intricate structures

You stop outside the shrine, the yellow-haired lady shooing the green-haired one inside. Something is bugging you about all this.

"Whar is this, and why am I here? Which way is the dock?"
"You have been summoned to protect the kingdom, of course"
"That doesn't answer anything! What kingdom? Britain? Fran-"

"Stop."
Her tone becomes stern for a moment, she whistles a very high-pitched noise that echoes throughout the woods.

A bird, not any bigger than your fist, looks up from where it is pecking at the ground in front of the shrine.

And it starts walking toward you
And gets bigger
and bigger
Until it stands almost twice the height that you do!

Atsuko pets it on the side of its neck, as if it was a horse. Then she feeds it an apple, whole.

"Good girl, Now, get this guy to the castle and get back before dark."

She turns to you
"Get on, you can ask questions when you get there."

Pick all that apply
>"What the hell is this? No!"
>"Hold on, I just met you, and now you're sending me away?"
>"I'll walk, thanks."
>"I'm not a fan of flying, never done it, and likely never will."

And by ADVENTURE I mean getting horribly eaten by demons. Because they're fucking everywhere in Dog Days.

There are tales of birds as large as men in the southern hemisphere who feast on flesh.

Okay, I'm currently fighting off sleep, so I am going to stop here. And start next thread with the results of the last vote.

I made a twatter, because that's apparently what all the cool people do.

Thank you everyone.

>>33763524
Oh right, also, is the idea worth continuing with?

>>33763542
Sure, though you kinda seem to be writing us into a corner of non-helpfullness with the fluffy tails.

>>33763524
All right Announcer you sleep will and thank you for the thread it was good.

>>33763542

any idea when you'd be running?

>>33763542
Fluffy tails!

feels more like the required escalating-panic-fish-out-of-water stage of any good involuntary dimension hopping story. We'll probably be useful once we get over it.

>>33763542
I think it depends on how incredibly faggety the setting ends up being.

If it's full on Dog Days we-do-sports-competitions-instead-of-war, then maybe not.

But if we get to hunt demons and fuck fox girls, I'm game.

>>33763654
Dog, cat, fox....
>>33763593
Archive OP?

Okay, thanks for the vote of confidence, everyone

Next thread will be way earlier, and hopefully on Thursday, I'll mention it if anything changes.

>>33763654
I'm game either way, so long as for the former we spend every sports day with a suitable level of disgruntled disbelief. Though the OP kind of hints towards the latter, I think.

>>33763752

What this anon says

>>33764595
After looking for 10 minutes, I was only able to find three animesque pictures of dark skinned pirates.

[Long, exasperated, drawn-out sigh of my disgust.]

This world conspires against me!

we're gonna be pretty pissed that we have been abducted from our entire world to fight their war. As a greedy pirate we must argue for some mighty compensation or just be pretty salty right?

>>33765247
I for one embrace our white overlords

>>33766513
"War" means "Most Extreme Elimination Challenge" or "Ninja Warrior" in their world's terms.

>>33766631
Not if we're fighting demons. Then it means 'horrible abominations that try to eat your soul'.

>>33766631
Didn't you read the OP? Hundreds of people die every time.

Oh hey, another "I hate this animu so I'm going to fix it!" quests. Throw it on the fucking pile.

>>33769404
Ugh. Time to watch Dog Days and make a true to fluff quest.

Brb, see you next week.

>>33769890
There is at least one other person already thinking that, so I really hope one of you actually does it.

>>33769404
>>33769890
You should get your eyes checked.

>>33770505
Why? Seems like an accurate conclusion to draw.

>>33770620
It's an AU quest, not a fixquest. The QM is only using the setting since it lends itself to the Quest format really well. Everything else is obviously different.

>>33773775
>The QM is only using the setting
Except he isn't really, is he. He is retaining names and the fluffy tails, but otherwise he's completely perverting the tone and ethos in service of "Gotta make it serious, gotta up da stakes!" bullshit.
It's not quite outright fixfic, but it is exhibiting the shitty 'I'm going to do it better' attitude.
It is worthless to people who would want an actual Dog Days quest, because it isn't.

So no, both comments seem totally legitimate to me.

>>33774055
>He is retaining names and the fluffy tails
Both of which are part of the setting. Do not know what a setting is?
>"Gotta make it serious, gotta up da stakes!
The original also had dark stuff, it was just never actually explored.
>>33774055
>It's not quite outright fixfic, but it is exhibiting the shitty 'I'm going to do it better' attitude.
Now you're just being pointlessly bitter.
>It is worthless to people who would want an actual Dog Days quest, because it isn't.
We're still going to get light-hearted antics and fluffy tails.
None of the arguments really have any strength or justification behind them.

>>33774405
>Both of which are part of the setting.
Right but they are not the entire setting, they don't define it.

>The original also had dark stuff, it was just never actually explored.
Because it was dressing, it was plot that were thrown out as motivation, that only existed for an episode or two and never actually came to a head. It was there but it didn't violate the tone and make things un-fun.

>Now you're just being pointlessly bitter.
Maybe, I was looking forward to a Dog Days quest for quite a while and instead I got this.

>We're still going to get light-hearted antics and fluffy tails.
While demons slaughter people by the hundreds, and even then with this MC it's not fun, it's skeevy and jarring.

>>33774601
Dude, it's been all of one thread.

Treat it like an anime, you have to give it three before you make any real judgement. If by three you still think it's shit, then yeah, to you it's probably shit.

But so far we haven't even gotten through "Holy shit I'm in a different world", so "excess darkness" sounds a little excessive.

>>33774601
>Right but they are not the entire setting, they don't define it.
Yes and we haven't seen enough of the setting to judge whether anything is missing. The demons are hear, the magic is there, the hero summoning is there, the multiple kingdoms are there and so are the Chocobo mounts. So far, everything is consistent.
>It was there but it didn't violate the tone and make things un-fun.
And why are you so convinced that things will be un-fun here?
>Maybe, I was looking forward to a Dog Days quest for quite a while and instead I got this.
You don't even really know what is it that you got and you're complaining.
>While demons slaughter people by the hundreds, and even then with this MC it's not fun, it's skeevy and jarring.
Only because you don't know how it will work out. For all you know, we may end up gathering a merry crew of fluffy tails and have driving away the demons from the deck of our snazzy airship while the rest of the world celebrates.

>>33774694
Your opening post is your pitch, it sets the scene, it sets the tone, it is what someone builds a first impression on. Starting off with a hundred catgirls eaten by demons is something of an indicator, and it is going to have an impact.
Something like that will hang over everything.

>>33774777
Merry crew of fluffy tails and driving away demons on our snazzy airship sounds like a good time.


>>33774796
He started off with a meeting between heads of state about two hundred generic villagers being killed. Granted, that doesn't speak of ha ha funny, but he didn't start with a description of how each one was eviscerated and raped either.

>>33774777
>Only because you don't know how it will work out.
For every five minutes you spend having fun and not doing hero stuff, demons could be slaugtering innocent people by the hundred. But please, continue to enjoy yourself with the tweenage princess and her loli advisors Mr 18th century pirate.

>>33774855
The meeting was clearly discussing how shocking the mere two hundred people dying was, I doubt hundreds are dying every minute.

You act like we're going to ignore things that are important when the biggest decision we've made so far was "I wanna be a pirate" and "Holy shit something completely out of my experience is freaking me out."

>>33774855
Well, we've barely done anything yet, so I can't be sure how it's all going to pan out. But I do note that in the OP it discusses shit happening when a barrier went down temporarily, which would mean that this stuff only happens in specific locations for short windows, and so it doesn't matter at all if we have time doing R&R so long as we run off to wherever the problem is as soon as we get notified.

>>33774855
>>33774796
The opening was not meant to set the tone, but rather the prologue of the story and the main plot that we will be dealing with as the story progresses. I doubt we will be having demon attacks every fucking day, since the Opening post made it clear that this is an extremely rare occurrence that has now alarmed the world leaders.
It will likely be the distant storm on the horizon, not the everlasting dark cloud that shrouds the entire Quest in it's menacing folds.

>>33774970
>>33774980
>>33775032

Alright, I don't trust the quest, but you do make a fair point. I'd still like the other guy to run his version, but I will contain my bitchiness and give another couple of threads a chance.

That's all we can ask anon.

Anyone still here?

Wow this exploded overnight

Please don't think that much of '200' people dying. I'm not going to grimdark the quest or the setting. The show mentioned people dying in demon attacks frequently, which is why the special squad was made in the first place.

Also please sage from here on out, I wasn't planning on continuing today.
