Hello and Welcome to Magical Soldier Quest Number Four! You are Akane Shogo, an ex-member of the deadliest team of mortals called the Magical Threat Response Team, and now an actual member of an even more fatal group: Magical Girls. Now, you’re no magical girl yourself. No, that would be silly. You’re much more like an undeveloped Witch. That’s what you learnt yesterday, at least. But you also had a tea party with an eight foot tall cyborg, so that’s cool.

And now onto the adventure!
It’s with some apprehension that you finally wake up. For one, you can’t remember having any dreams of any sort. You don’t know whether or not that’s because you just didn’t dream or the large gathering of magical girls inside your room, all staring at you (probably only fitting because one of them made the room larger) scared away the nightmares or some such.

But there is a reason for your slight nervousness, and that’s because the engineers are standing at the front of the crowd, less looking at you and more like grinning and waiting for you to look at them. And Roland.

Roland himself is wearing the biggest fucking grin that he can possibly muster, though it’s barely visible since he’s wearing a big ass cloak over himself.

Scratch that, it’s actually your curtain, which he must have ripped off the wall, which may also be why you woke up so early apart from the other obvious suspects. You can make out the bottom of his boots peeking out from underneath the curtain, where you can see the tell-tale blue that would mark him a true badass.

“So, Shogo, tell me. When are you going to feed all these poor lasses just standing around waiting for you?”

You groan, slowly leaning up from your bed. “Is there a reason you didn’t?”

“So, Shogo, tell me. When are you going to feed all these poor lasses just standing around waiting for you?”

You groan, slowly leaning up from your bed. “Is there a reason you didn’t?”

Roland shrugs, the shuddering and scraping audible through the thick curtain. “I was busy. With other things. I mean, I’ve had to make sure I can handle the surgeries-”

“Stop there, please.” You get out of bed, now looking down on the horde of Em-Gees quietly watching you, though Roland is still towering over you. “Listen, you look prepared, so...”

>>
>>39551578

”...Let’s just get right to it. Duel first, breakfast after. Nothing like wrecking a magical girl or getting wrecked *by* a magical girl to work up a healthy appetite.”

Roland grins. “Perfect! Let’s go find our friend, then!”

He runs ahead, practically skipping if it weren’t for the tiles cracking under his feet each time he takes a step. You shake your head and follow, the engineers on either side of you and the shambling horde of hungry Em-Gees following you as well.

“So,” you whisper to one of the engineers, watching Roland, “how likely is it that he wins?”

The engineer giggles. “Well, I’d put my money on him, but it’s really anyone’s fight. I mean, Marie is an Em-Gee, with supernatural powers that can tear down skyscrapers. And Roland? The armor he’s wearing is exactly up to the specifications of what a Space Marine is meant to be able to do. I’m more worried that the armor itself might be too much for him, though he’s handling it extremely well.”

You nod, and continue to follow Roland down to the main hall.

It’s there you find Marie and Roland right in the centre of the room, both trying to stare down the other. Marie has to float about five feet up in the air to do it, but their eyes are locked and the tension would be almost palpable, if it weren’t for Eliza loudly commentating on the staring sports.

“And Marie goes for a blink! And she does it again! Wow, how is she gonna come back from that loss? But wait, Roland himself is looking away, sacrificing his lead!” At this point Eliza notices who Roland’s looking at. “Oh. Hey, Shogo.”

“Hey, Eliza. When are we starting?”

Eliza shrugs. “I mean, I wasn’t aware that there was too much planning to this. Is there a place you want them to fight?”

“Hell, let’s do it outside. I mean, it’s built for it already, so it should be perfect!”

Eliza nods, then turns back to the pair, who are still staring at each other, with Marie getting noticeably more angry every second. “Alright, Marie, Roland, we’re heading outside for the duel. You guys ready?”

Roland quickly turns away, leaving Marie staring at empty space for a few seconds. “Yes I am, ma’am! I’ll be waiting, Marie.” Roland makes his way outside, and you follow, the horde also following their only chance at breakfast.

Once outside (and totally on solid ground), you step over to Roland, who’s set himself up on the other side of the Grounds, waiting for Marie to exit.

“So, Roland, do you have a battle plan?”

Roland shrugs. “Not really. Just get as many hits in as I can, I guess?”

You frown. “Hmm. Well, what weapons do you have.”

Roland tugs at the curtain around him, showing the distinct outline of his shitty excuse for a sword. “Apart from this thing? Nada. They couldn’t make me a melta in time.”

“Alright then. So, how about...”

>Kite

“...Kite her, find her strengths and weaknesses, figure out where you can push, and then go for it. Sound good?”

Roland smiles. “Sure, boss! I can do that. Now, if you’d make some room, as a challenger is appearing...”

You step into the spectator’s ring, where the horde are waiting huddled around a fire. One is a attempting to cook some grass on top of a pan of energy, others excitedly watching, and failing horribly. Turning back to the main stage, you see Marie on her side of the field, now fully decked out in her uniform, two yellow and black ribbons weaving around her to make a form fitting dress that you have no doubt could withstand a shot from a tank. In one hand she holds a thin staff, slightly jagged at some sections, visibly crackling with energy.

And Roland is still huddling inside his cloak, holding the sorry excuse for a sword through the curtain’s fabric, still refusing to reveal his true power level.

Eliza has now hopped up on top of the judge’s pillar, and shouts, “Ladies and gentlemen-”

“GO FUCK YOURSELVES YOU OPPRESSIVE SHITS!” Marie roars as she rushes across the stage, closing in on Roland rapidly. Even a few of the horde turn an eye-struck gaze towards her as she makes her way across the stage in seconds. She begins raining down a fury upon Roland, hitting again and again with the staff, not even bothering with magic and just using blunt fury to attack him.

Roland attempts to block the first few hits, and manages well enough, but when one sneaks in and hits him, he stops responding, huddling up inside the cloak as Marie continues to wail on him. You’d almost be worried for him, if you hadn’t worked with him for six years.

After a minute of angry waling, Marie takes a step away, breathing heavily. Her staff has stopped crackling, likely drained of all its energy in the attacks. Roland himself is still underneath the curtain, though there are plenty of rips and tears in it, the fabric itself charred.

>“GO FUCK YOURSELVES YOU OPPRESSIVE SHITS!”

Damn she's even more feminazi than I thought.
>>
>>39552366
Roland stands up, shrugging off the curtain, revealing his true form. He was already standing at an impressive eight feet, just as tall as Spess Mehreens were meant to be, but with the armor he’s gone to an absolutely insane ten feet tall, looking more like a miniature Jaeger than oversized armor. The sword looks much more fitting now, a glorious slab of metal meant to be held by someone in that armor. Roland himself looks right at home, taking a second to slam down a helmet over his face before turning back to Marie.

“And that’s all you got?”

You leave the Em-Gees to their pitiful attempts at cooking food, and turn your eyes back to the real fight that’s going on in front of you.

Now having found a power balance, Roland is striking out, cleaving the air in front of him with the gigantic blade, and Marie dodging her way around and attempting to do some real damage to the pseudo-Space Marine. Now resorting to her powers, she’s charging up heavy blasts of electricity and attempting to stun Roland, but he shrugs through and tries to hit again.

And just as Marie comes around for another attack, Roland drops his sword and grabs Marie out of the air, throwing her to the ground. Even as she tries to fly up again, his foot presses down on her, and soon Marie is pushing up against it, able to keep it well off her but not for long enough to escape from the trap. If she were actually a nice person, you’d complement her on her obvious lifting prowess.

Finally, Marie manages to push Roland fully off her, sending him stumbling back as she grabs her staff from a metre away, and sends a gigantic blast of electricity towards Roland.

Finally, Roland’s armor takes some damage, a noticeable dent in his armor.

“Is that it?” Marie taunts, landing in front of Roland. “Have you finally realized that you have no place among us?”

Roland looks up, and mutters something, though at this distance you can’t hear anything except “-mprah.”

Marie’s face becomes confused. “What?”

Roland jumps forward, his right hand cocking back, and his voice rings out, “FOR THE EMPRAH!” And with one glorious, ork-crushing, eldar-vaporizing, truly and uniquely human punch, he sends Marie flying.

Off and over the edge.

“Game! Point goes to Roland!” Eliza shouts gleefully, hopping back and forth on top of the pillar.

You walk away from the horde down to Roland, who’s leaning against one of the pillars with his helmet in hand and sword lying next to him. He looks up at you and grins. “How about that, boss?”

Finally, you notice just how serious the wound that Roland took from the lightning blast was. It's cut through the entire chest-plate, baring his now scarred and torn up chest exposed, blood running down into the armor.

>Fucking Everything.

“You did good, Roland, you did good.” You crouch down by him, quickly detaching most of the pieces of armor (helpfully labeled, surprisingly enough) until he’s left just in black leggings and a torn up black shirt covering the wound. “Though seriously, I’m surprised, considering you obviously wanted that final punch, that you didn’t go for a rocket elbow and go all Jaeger on her.”

Roland is silent for a few minutes. “Huh.”

“You didn’t think about it until now?”

“Well, I could probably-”

You raise your hands to stop him. “Don’t. One of those engineers is already trying to figure out how to make her own Orks. We do *not*, and I mean that, need any fucking Kaiju coming into this world because of a magical girl with a monster fetish.”

“It’s better than Eldars.” Roland laughs, before coughing up some blood.

“Yes, but only just. Now,” you check your watch, before speaking up so the Em-Gees in the audience could hear you, “I just *wonder* if anyone could *possibly* save my good friend for, oh I don’t know, the first chance at breakfast?”

Soon enough, #firstaidforfood is trending and nearly all the magical girls are giving their loving attention to Roland, even a few who very obviously have no healing magic whatsoever. He lies there, grinning like an idiot, while you walk off to Eliza.

“So, what did you think of the match?” she asks you, watching Roland.

You think about the match, about what both Marie and Roland accomplished in their rather short fight. You eventually figure out...

“If Roland ever got the chance to hold Marie still, without something preventing him, he’d crush her.”

Eliza raises her eyebrows in surprise. “Really? That much stronger?”

“I think even out of his suit, he’d be just as strong as Marie if it weren’t for the magic-aided movement. In that thing? No problem.”

“But who would win in an all out fight?”

“Roland.”

“But why? Marie would have no reason not to unleash that same lightning trick multiple times.”

You point to the engineers who are piling over the armor Roland had discarded, magical symbols visible over them. “With those girls’ taste for violence and Roland’s preferred genre of giant metal things beating up other things, yep.”

“...Huh.” Eliza turns back to watch Roland for a few more seconds, before turning to you. “Well, before we move on, how about we get some breakfast? The horde is done with their healing business, and are looking at you quite hungrily.”

You nod, and head on over to Roland, helping him up. He looks better now, with not a single scratch visible (including some of his old scars, and you’re sure he looks even more buff than before the fight), but seems worn out. “You alright, man?” you ask.

Roland smiles, and shakes his head. “It was a good fight. Not gonna be able to do that again until after my armor’s ready again-”

“HOLD IT THERE YOU FUCKER.” you both turn to find Marie, completely soaked, glaring angrily at the both of you. Sparks are running up and down her body, almost jumping to a few Em-Gees near her who quickly scatter. “I demand a fucking rematch.”

>>39553221


Eliza calls out, “You lost, Marie. Besides, Roland was just here for the night-”

“I don’t give a shit, Eliza. They’ve brainwashed you, maybe, but not me.” Marie starts moving towards the two of you, quickly building up a metric fuck-ton of energy. “And you fuckers are going to die here, right now, for your stupidity and your pig-headedness and your sheer nerve to dare come to this last sacred place.”

By now she’s only three metres away, and about to pounce.

>>39553445
You only majorly succeeded the slapping-shit-silly roll, not the absorb roll. Thius:

Even as she pounces, you brace yourself, raising your arms up in front of you, palms facing towards Marie, and even as the lightning arcs from her fingertips they are quickly absorbed by your own hands. The eneergy, much more raucous and noisy than last time, struggles to push against your control of it, and you let it go quickly, out around you in an electric halo.

Finally, Marie herself lands, unprepared for you, and you easily push her back slightly, making her stumble but leaving her standing. At this, you walk up and backhand her, finally tumbling her back on the ground.

“What the FUCK is wrong with you, Marie?” you shout at her. “I came here because I was INVITED. I have done nothing but help this fucking cause ever since the fucking event. You call men barbarians, but you’re acting like some uncivilized misandrist who’s hiding her own problems. See a fucking therapist, why don’t ya?”

You turn away, leaving her on the ground, and continue walking back to the main hall with Roland. Eliza frowns at you, but nods understandingly. Marie herself is still on the ground, staring off into space as a few of her friends, glaring at your and Roland’s back, try tugging her to her feet.

Finally, you make it inside. The horde has gathered, all waiting outside the kitchen. One seems to be preaching about the third coming of the cook, rattling off your life story made up with half real events that you had forgotten and half probably-fictional events where you ate the world, and spit it out because it was undercooked.

You’re really fucking angry now. Marie is a real proper bitch, trying to pull a stunt like that. There’s only one very specific breakfast item that could possibly calm you down right now.

You quickly grab the necessary items from the various cupboards and hiding places, until you have them set out on the counter. You grab your usual group of Em-Gees to assist you, and decide to make conversation with one while you cook.

“So, hey, when did you become an Em-Gee?”

The Em-Gee looks at you in slight surprise at you talking to her, before brushing her hair to the side again and continue to beat the eggs in front of her. “Just about a year ago now. Turned on my fifteenth birthday. That was not a good day.”

“Alright then. Hey, what’s your name again? I never caught it.”

“Tony.”

“...Ah.”

“It was NOT a good day for me.” Tony continues to beat the eggs, her/his magic operating several other whisks to make the work go faster.

“Are you fine with it now?”

Tony thinks for a moment. “I mean, I’m used to the body now. To be fair, the day itself sucked, but being a god is an okay replacement, I guess. I’m still a guy, in my mind. Definitely annoying when some guy tries to hit on me after I save him though, and tries to ask my name,” he chuckles at this, “the last one to try it started running as soon as his feet hit the ground.”

You continue to prepare the rest of the pancakes, adding the various ingredients together and setting the delicious homemade mix (none of that storebought shit) to cook on the various stoves.

“How about you, Shogo?”

“What about me?”

Tony shrugs. “I mean, I don’t know what your deal is, but I saw what happened when Marie tried to go for that rematch. You destroyed her. Not even in a proper and fair way. You slapped her, not to fight her off but to teach her a lesson. You're incredibly powerful, for a normal human at least. Simply put, I think you’re gonna be in my position soon enough.”

”Well...” you think for a moment, taking the time to slap on bacon and eggs to the stoves along with the pancakes.

“I signed up to this gig because of my parents. They were killed by a Witch, and I ended up killing a Witch later that day too. It was not a good day for me either. But, I’m gonna continue to defend people so they don’t have to do what I did. If I have to become a magical girl? I’ll do it. Otherwise, I’ll keep my Y-chromosome, thanks.”

Tony nods, sliding a few of the cooked pancakes off the pan into the waiting plates of the horde. “I can understand that. Well, hopefully when it happens, Marie isn’t around to see and throw in some stupid ‘I told you so’.”

“Here’s to hoping.”

You quickly serve up the rest of the food to the hungry Em-Gees, before saying goodbye to Roland. Before he left, he managed to acquire the repaired Space Marine armor, and the engineers all thank him for showing them “the light” that is “Th’Emrah”. He says he’ll see you around, before one of the teleporting Em-Gees takes him back.

“Alright, Shogo. Today we’ve got another job for you.”

You nod, leaning back in your comfy new chair. With the new space extensions that the Em-Gees added to your room so they could all fit in, you’ve managed to get some fancy new furniture, and a desk in the far corner with a computer and such set up. It’s all very nice. Of course, you have to still work for it more than being the cook.

“Sure. What do we have for the day?”

Eliza hands you two files. “We’ve got two gates reported to open up not too far from the city center. We can handle them, but we just wanted to see if there’s one you would like to go with.

You look down at the reports.

>Gate C12AX125: Weak power signature, near bottom of Willis Tower. Same urgency due to location, but not powerful enough to warrant full team. Recommended for teaching excursion.

>Gate C13SS241: High powered signature, three miles above city centre. Location and power is worrisome, possible invasion gate. Suggested full team.

”Uh...I guess I’ll go for the C13 one? The harder one?”

All weekend every weekend. Except maybe tomorrow. Got a real game going on. Or maybe. Depends on what time I get home. I'll tweet about it. Also, very happy to have you here.

“Well, I think Maggy would be a good choice. Seeing her in training with Jamie, she’s got a ton of potential and I think that this will be a good opportunity for her.”

Eliza nods. “Sure. Who else?”

“Well, you, of course, and I know a guy...”

-

Not an hour later, You, Eliza, Maggy, and a Friend are all gathered underneath an unnervingly large portal that seems to be getting bigger by the second. Maggy seems a little pale, but seems rather calmed by the large, ten-foot presence she’s carrying along with her. Eliza herself is muttering into a phone.

Finally, she closes it, and turns to you guys. “Okay, so this is getting a bit big, but we’ve got a full team here. Plus,” she eyes you and the Friend, “it’s certainly a capable team. Roland, you up to kill your first witch?”

Roland grins. “One point five, ma’am. I assisted an Em-Gee a while back. But yes, I think I am ready.”

“Alright, then how shall we do this?”

>>39555436
It's...okay. Mind, the UK has its own set of problems, but much better than the US overall. I was in Japan recently, think I said that last thread, I really want to go back.

It’s all quite succulent.

The breeze smells of a most exquisite jalapeno and habanero sauce, blended together excellently and served on top of a delicious ramen bowl with chicken, the flavours blending just so to make an absolutely PERFECT experience. You smile in pride at the creation, and go to take a spoonful (just a spoonful, wouldn’t want to be greedy-)

“SHOGO!”

You quickly spit out the piece of congealed fat and gristle you were trying to force in your mouth, throwing yourself off the ground. All around you, failed meals appear, food littering the ground. In some places you can spot a few good meals peeking through, but they seem just as rejected as the rest, clustered together in some areas, almost overtaken by the monstrosity that is the rest of the landscape.

You help Roland off the ground, who managed to resist the level of hypnosis you went under, though he’s still muttering under his breath about “what divine flavour”.

“You guys alright?”

You turn to Maggy and Eliza, who both look fine, just a bit disgusted by the landscape around them. You give the pair a thumbs up, and slowly stand up fully, looking around.

Just around you is a field, if this mess could be called a field, though you spot some buildings off in the distance. In the other direction, you can see a path leading up the side of a mountain. And, of course, going away from both of those options is a small cottage in the trees.

“This Witchspace is huge…” Eliza mutters, looking around. “Where do we go?”

You let yourself use your Magical Radar, and feel stunned by the complexity of the world around you, almost straining your mind. Past each and every one of the options, be it the mountain, the cottage, or the city, there’s a pathway all leading to the same place, as if you were standing on an extremely small planet with all paths leading to one point. And from each of the paths you get a different feeling, as if each location had something different to offer. The feeling quickly connects itself to a concept in your mind, so you find you can figure out what offers what.

“Uh, Shogo?” Eliza asks. “What do we do?”

“Let’s head to the cottage. It feels like mom’s old cooking.” The group looks at you funny. “I’ll explain later. Come on.”

The group makes their way over to the cottage, crossing the distance surprisingly quickly considering how far away it looks to be. You eventually get there in about 5 minutes of walking, striking up some idle conversation as you do so.

Once you arrive, you find the door sitting open for you, with a mat sitting outside the door with a Welcome! woven into it.

“Uh, Shogo? I’m sure you know what you’re doing, but are you sure you want to just walk in there?

”What? Why so cautious, Roland? I mean, for crying out loud, there’s a Welcome! mat and everything! What could possibly be safer than that?”

Roland frowns. “I think you’re deceived too easily.”

“Alright, alright, I’ll check.” you turn back to your thoughts, letting your mind spread out over the area. Inside, you detect an incredible magical presence, a bright light that outshines even Eliza. You detect another presence, more muted, but powerful in its own way. Still, with all that, there was no real sense of evil, more than anyone else has.

“It’s fine. Come on, they might be expecting guests.” You walk up to the door before anyone else can say anything else reasonable, and knock on the open door. “Hello? We’re home!” you cry out, down the hallways of the rather familiar looking house. You also see the others peering in, looking at the walls, Maggy looking just halfway up it on the left side, frowning slightly.

“Ah, it’s good that you’re home, honey! And you too, Roland my little soldier, and Maggy my sweet, et ma cherie Elizaveta!” around the corner walks a woman, who stands at the end of the corridor, smiling, wearing that apron you remembered her wearing when she made you breakfast all those years ago...

The rest of the group freezes up around you. Elizaveta swears under her breath, Roland stares with his mouth wide open, and Maggy’s eyes are starting to tear up.

”Out of curiosity, why are you wearing my mom’s skin? It seems slightly unsanitary-” Eliza chokes back laughter at this, “-and slightly needless considering I’d never fall for something like that.”

The...creature laughs, in exactly the way your mother would. “Oh, god, no, I never thought it. That’s just part of the power of this place, you see. No, I am a spirit, for sure, confined to this prison. It’s merely your own mind that makes me seem like your mother-being, and this house your birth-dwelling. That’s why all of you see me as your mother. Or mother figure, I suppose, for you, Maggy.”

Maggy whimpers slightly, a tear rolling down one cheek. “Why would you do this?” she whispers.

The creature smiles sadly. “Not my choice, I’m afraid. I know who I am to you, and what happened. I’m sorry, she didn’t deserve to die like that. No one does. Nevertheless,” she turns back to you, “you are now here in my domain. And thus, there is only one thing left to do.”

“...Which is?” Roland ventures, after a few seconds of silence.

The creature smiles, the big heartwarming smile your mom always had for you. “A cooking duel, of course!”

>Well gee look at the time I guess I’ll acccept this duel.
>Uh, can we talk about this first? Cup of tea, maybe? Backstory is needed on what the fuck is happening here.
>What about the other being here? I can feel it.
>Thanks, no thanks.
>Write In.

>>39556361
>>Uh, can we talk about this first? Cup of tea, maybe? Backstory is needed on what the fuck is happening here.
Context is everything. Also, I'm passing out now. GO FORTH AND COOK MY COMRADES!

Demonic grin: "Oh you poor miserable creature you have no idea what you've just done"

>Uh, can we talk about this first? Cup of tea, maybe? Backstory is needed on what the fuck is happening here.

Just gotta hope that there are no pomegranate seeds in the tea, I guess.

>>39556414
Made me chuckle. I like it when my writing comes alive.

>>39556382
Have a lovely night/morning.

>>39556428
>>39556417
>>39556382
Other presence first, then Cuppa.
>>
>>39556361

”Uh, first, what about that other presence I feel? Just before we have a contest with some unfair advantage to either side or something.”

The creature chuckles. “Yeah, that’s fine. Here, follow me.”

You follow her into the living room, looking just like yours used to be. Without the blood stains. Without your father’s dead body.

In the chair, sitting up against the window, is thankfully not your father, since that would be *way* too cliché, but an older woman, flipping through the pages of a magazine. She waves faintly at the group entering, still focusing on the magazine.

“This is Jenna. She’s been here for a while now. I cook for her, I don’t die a horrible painful death. It’s not that bad, as prison sentences go.” she gestures around the entire building. “This was created to contain me, once upon a time, but since you guys are here I’m guessing that’s coming to an end. So, shall we duel?”

You shake your head. “You just made more questions than answers right then. How about we all have a cup of tea, and maybe talk about what is happening and what I’m meant to be doing?”

The creature nods, turning back to go to the kitchen, where you know she’ll find the kettle on the counter just to the left of the doorway, cups hanging off that tree thing, teabags in the jar near the stove. “Be back in a tick!”

Soon enough, a kettle is brewed and you’re all sitting around a table, waiting as the creature serves Jenna, then your group. She sits down, and looks around expectantly.

>Take a sip
>Don’t take a sip
>Ask all the things (Since why the fuck would you do anything else?)
>I RELAX BY DUELING. LET’S D-D-D-D-DUEL.

”Alright, then, so can you start from the beginning please? Maybe a name, so we don’t have to call you “Mom” or whatever.”

The creature smiles. “Sure. I’m Momma.”

“...That is not helpful in any way whatsoever.”

The creature pouts, taking a sip of her tea. “What, I can’t make a joke? Fine, call me...Sue. Yeah, Sue the Chef.”

“Alright then, so can you tell us what’s going on inside this realm? It’s huge, for one. Way too big for normal Witchspace.” you take a sip of the tea yourself, at the horrified gazes of your comrades. It’s...pretty fucking good. And you know for a fact that the teabags she used were Tetley, so straight off the factory floor. Her power level was certainly high.

Sue nods, setting her cup down. “Of course. So there’s the Witch in charge of this place, who decided to go about kidnapping other witches that had the same powers as her but just weren’t *as* powerful as her. She then chains them up and forces them to work for her. Now, she’s gotten bored, and wants a challenge, so she’s decided to open up a gate to force some Em-Gees in to fight us.”

Sue continues, “What’s most interesting is the fact that only two of you are Em-Gees. One of you is a normal human. And you,” she stares at you, “you’re the strangest of all. A most wonderful addition to my pantry.”

You slowly nod. “Okay. So, big witch kidnaps little witches to do the job for them. And what is this, exactly?”

Sue smiles. “Well, that’s easy! We’re all cooking based. So, challenge me to a cook off! If you win, you can advance to the next stage, and win some cool gear. If you lose, I get to eat you.”

“What are we cooking?”

Sue gestures around her. “What else but home cooked?”

We should make pasta.
Also contemplate the possibility of kidnapping the witches in this realm to cook for us back at the base.

>Can two of us work together?

>>39556781

Sure, Shogo himself is unstoppable, but with Roland helping us, we'll be unstoppabler!

>>39556834
>Also contemplate the possibility of kidnapping the witches in this realm to cook for us back at the base.
is it really kidnapping if they want to go?
>>
>>39556834
I think rolling to seduce is hilarious and I may add it but if you ever even fucking dare say that unironically I'll punch you so fucking hard you'll be shitting d4s for weeks.

>>39556781
”Uh, can the two of us,” you indicate yourself and Roland, “work together?”

Sue smiles. “Nope, one at a time. Besides, I would have to have a second person on my team if that were the case, and then both of you would be in my pantry.”

“And when I do beat you, and then the big witch, would you be willing to...work for me? I mean, while I couldn’t provide you human ingredients in good conscience, I could take you witch hunting. Plus, there’s literally a whole floating island of magical girls who would worship you for the food you cook.”

Sue is silent for a bit, taking a few more sips of tea. Finally, she says, “No one’s ever asked me something like that before,” she smiles, “I’d be happy to! Now, shall we begin?”

>Roland Goes

That on cookbooks of Mom's you saved that really got you into cooking.

You already have spice rack and cookbooks. Roll for something you want but I didn't say. For example, "fresh jalapenos and habaneros for fucking awesome homemade tacos".

>>39557021
So, what the fuck do you want to pull from your evidently sentient equipment bag that prepares itself for the day ahead without your help?

>>39557027
Yep. But you guys also need to pick a recipe and who's going.
>>
>>39557021
>>39557037
Oh, the Spice Rack.

Biscuits, gravy, oven steak, Mixed greens, black eyed peas, and ham.

Homemade chocolate chip cookies, the godly kind.

T-The Spice Rack? T-The One Talked of in the Legends of the Greatest Cook that Ever Roamed the Earth? Who was Spoken of Only with Capitalized Letters?

Sorry, that's a high level loot item for later.

>>39557068
Is that the recipe? Neat.

>>39557076
Considering the 10-10 roll, you may make that as well with the secret ingredients Love and seven kilograms of bull semen that the equipment bag contains.
>>
>>39557076
Mum used to make chocolate chip and chili cookies.
They are surprisingly good.
I always fuck up the ration of chocolate to chilies though.
Which is sad.

>>39557095
I swear to god, we're gonna find out we're the direct descendant of "black-leg" Sanji one of these days.

That's okay m8 we have the secret ingredients
Love and seven kilograms of things better left unsaid!

Alright, meal will be Biscuits and gravy.

For cookies, please vote for the following:

>1: Chocolate n' Chili
>2: Triple Chocolate Cookie
>3: Shortbread

And finally, please roll 3d10 for the contest! The Minor DC is surprisingly low considering your god-tier cooking, but the Major DC will still be a challenge for y'all.

fuuuuuck at least that ten is good.

>>39557159
My sister used to make these Triple Chocolate Cookies, and also this kinda cream-cheese+sugar+sugar+sugar thing so it was like a Whoopie pie here in America. Absolutely godly.

Similar to your roll.

>>39557172
The only real biscuit that I've ever loved is Shortbread. It isn't overwhelming, you can have a few with a cup of tea, and they're easy to make.

>>39557179
Now, never had chocolate and chili, but it sounds pretty nice, so I'm excited to see what you can do with it.
>>
>>39557184
Remember, at least two dice need to make it. 10-6 passes the Minor DC, whereas that 9-8 passes the Major DC.
>>
So what homemade goodness we making?

That silly voting style engaged where you have to do it in like 3 minutes or something like that.

>1. Choc n' Chili
>2. Triple Chocolate
>3. Shortbread

Respond with the number as your response.

>>39557211
So triple chocolate it is then?

You and Sue move into the kitchen, and you quickly locate all your ingredients from the pantry, the only unfamiliar part about the entire house. It stretches on for quite a distance, with everything neatly labeled. Luckily, you can see the “human” labels clearly enough to steer far away, and you get all the supplies you need for biscuits, gravy, steak, peas, other greens, and ham.

For desserts, you consider limiting yourself to a set list of ingredients, but then you realize you cook like a god and such mortal chains are not necessary. You grab the ingredients necessary for all the items, and begin preparing.

You first set the kettle to boil for the gravy, and set the oven to the necessary temperature to cook the ham and steak. You use your spice rack to make sure they’ll taste *just* right when they come out again.

For the greens and peas, you grab a pot and fill it with water from the kettle, setting it on the stove and turning it on, then stacking sieves to steam the veggies in. From there, you keep the kettle at just below boiling, so you can make the gravy as the meat finishes.

Sue herself is doing an excellent job of putting together a Shepherd’s Pie, filled with carrots, peas, mashes potatoes, and more delicious that you would love to taste if it didn’t mean dying.

Finally, your meats are finished, and you set out the serving plates, with the ham and steak all set on a plate with a trickle of gravy poured over it, along with the greens and such, ready to be served.

For your cookies, you see that the final batches are all looking beautiful, and you take a nibble from one of each, deeming each satisfactory to your godly standards.


And finally, you and Sue sit at the dining table, though Sue takes her time in helping over Jenna as well, serving up a plate for her.

(1/2)

>>39557405
"Ready for my culinary exodia?"
>>
>>39557405


And finally, you and Sue sit at the dining table, though Sue takes her time in helping over Jenna as well, serving up a plate for her.

It seems she also went the route of homebaked goodness, though she opted for a lemon drizzle cake, with a layer of meringue on top that looks to have the perfect blend of crunchiness and softness.

You hold your breath as Jenna eats a small plate of each, and a few bites of each desert.

And slowly, the woman points towards you, serving herself another plate of your deliciousness.

Having finished the contest, now you and Sue try a plate of each other's cooking. You both complement each other on the wonderful main course, but Sue seems to descend into ecstasy at the first taste of your dessert.

Finally, you invite your rather hungry-looking group over, and they dig in.

>Congratulations! You won!
>You are now the owner of the Sue Chef's Apron! Highly resistant to grease stains! Bonus to cooking checks!
>Sue joins your party, since she's interested in what's going to go down!
>Jenna is satisfied, and has a nap!

And that, ladies and gentleman, is it for tonight. Once again I get more and more people joining the quest with 21 unique IPs all here reading this. Thanks for spending your time on my nonsense, I appreciate it.

Archivefriend, can you save this as whatever you think is funny. If you can't, then: Space Marine whoops ass, and you discover that D-D-D-D-Dueling is more like the Cooking Channel than Yugioh.

Hanging out for a bit to answer questions on lore or anything else.

>>39557473
Thanks for running!

>>39557548
I guess we'd probably have to transform to be able to handle one of those, huh?
>>
>>39557562

I mean, remember, you already know that the Oracle, Circe, and Gordon fucking Ramsey are witches. Witches aren't necessarily bad. The Coven Event kinda sparked a worldwide response, and while many Witches are made from pure darkness, others are just Em-Gees with a few extra features.

>>39557571
Always a pleasure. Transformation will come, I'm not gonna spoil when.
>>
>>39557581
I kinda want to get a pair of giant soup ladles as melee weapons now.
>>
>>39557609
You've got engineers into 40K and soon to be Pacific Rim back at Haioku. As long as those soup ladles are ten metres long with rockets and shit attached to it, you can get them.
>>
>>39557502
Damn straight m8.

>>39557624
>implying them NOT being ten metres long with rockets and shit attached was ever an option
QM you crazy.

Indeed.

Anyone know how to archive threads on sup/tg/? since I'm an idiot.
