You're a sixteen year old high school student living in a small town in the United States. You live in an apartment with your father, who teaches at the local Middle School. Your mother passed away when you were very young, and honestly, you barely remember her.

The people in town know you as.

>A. A good kid

>B. Kind of a punk

>C. Someone who's just sort of there

Who

>D. Works hard in school and generally does well

I like the idea of someone who's naturally kind of a punk, and pretty dumb, but legitimately wants to be smarter and do well in school to secure themselves a future.

Most of the people in town don't really think much about you. You're one of those kids that is just sort of there. Your father is a well known and well liked teacher, and most people just know you as his son, and not much else.

You're not exactly the best student. After all, you spend a lot of time fighting with your classmates, and students from the next town over. Still, you study hard when you can, and manage to do pretty well as far as grades in school. If it wasn't for the disciplinary problems your constant fighting causes, you could be a model student.

Oh well, nobody's perfect.

It's Friday, and school has just ended. Finals are coming in about two weeks, so you've been studying extra hard to prepare yourself. You're pretty confident that you'll do fine, so long as you can avoid getting suspended in the meantime.

Most of the other students get into busses or their cars and head home, but you choose to walk. Your apartment complex isn't too far, and your neighbors usually do the same, in any case.

Lucy, a blonde-haired girl who lives next store to you, walks by your side on the way home. You've known her since you were kids, and she's always been pretty nice to you. She's a rather hard worker in school as well, so the two of you sometimes study together. She also enjoys fighting. Well, not fighting exactly, but she takes Karate classes a few times a week. She subscribes to that "only in self defense" idea, so she disapproves of your constant fighting with the others.

"So, is it another weekend of studying for you?" she asks as the two of you walk away from the school.

>A. That's the plan

>B. Yes, and ask if she wants to come over and study with you

>C. Actually, Bruce said there's going to be a fight with the students from Allentown High School that you plan to take part in

"Actually, Bruce says there's going to be a fight with the students from Allentown High School," you tell her. "I plan to take part in it."

Lucy shoots you a disapproving glance. "Really? Don't you have better things to do than fight like a little kid on the schoolyard?"

"Hey, it's better than spending time practicing fighting and never actually doing it," Bruce says, coming up to walk on your other side.

Bruce is your other neighbor. He's kind of short, but stocky, and has short black hair. He enjoys fighting even more than you do, even though he looses about as many as he wins. Despite the way he treats the punks from Allentown High, and people that get on his nerves in general, he's been a pretty good friend to you, and saved your ass in some fights before.

"I'd rather know it and not need it than need it and not know it," Lucy replies in irritation.

The two of them have had this debate more than once, and it usually ends with Lucy pissed off, and Bruce getting hit. It was funny the first few times, but by now you're kind of wondering if Bruce has a learning disability or something.

"Knowing it and not using it is even worse," he tells her. "What are the odds that you'd ever get in a real fight?"

"You can't be too careful these days," she answers. "There's a lot of idiots out there who think with their fists."

Lucy looks over at you. "Anyway, I have to go to my Karate class. If you're not too busy recovering from head trauma, we can study together tomorrow."

She makes a right while you and Bruce make a left. As she heads for her Karate class, Bruce grabs your shoulder.

"So, apparently the fight's happening in the old field tonight. I think at about six," he tells you. "Word is, Tim's really looking forward to paying Allentown back for the asskicking they gave us last time."

>A. So are you

>B. You really want to make that one punk pay for all those bruises he gave you...what was his name again?

>C. Tim needs to relax. Those idiots got lucky

>>40606823
basically, something always went wrong, and if we ever made efforts to counter obvious issues that were going to come up they would either be ignored or make things worse. Power levels weren't consistent, to the point that a character who had trouble moving more than a large boulder with earthbending wound up killing the main character by instantly moving several thousand cubic feet of earth straight down

"Tim needs to relax," you tell him. "Those idiots got lucky."

"Yeah, I know," he tells you. "But you know Tim. He thinks he's the toughest guy out there. If anyone beats him, it pisses him off big time."

Bruce checks his watch. "It's not even three yet, so we've got time to kill. What do you say we drop by Lucy's Karate class? See if she actually knows the first thing about fighting."

>A. Sounds fun

>B. You think you'll head home for now. You'll meet him at the field later.

Hm, quite.

>>40607114
"Sounds fun," you tell him.

"Alright then, this should be good for a laugh," he tells you, already chuckling.

The two of you turn around and go the way Lucy went. As far as you can remember, you haven't been to her Karate school in years. She tried to convince you to sign up when you were about eight, but you just weren't interested. You haven't gone back to the place since, but Lucy goes there at least three times a week for class.

When you and Bruce arrive, Lucy's class is just starting. They're all wearing black shirts with a tiger on the back, and long black pants.

They seem to be going through warmup exercises, at the moment doing some stretches. Bruce watches this with a great deal of interest, and you're pretty sure Lucy would beat the crap out of him if she knew exactly what he was focusing on.

They soon finish stretching and do a quick series of jumping jacks, then get on their backs and start doing crunches.

"So...when does the actual fighting part start?" Bruce asks.

>A. Tell him that they don't usually fight in Karate class. They usually just do techniques and Katas.

>B. You don't know

>C. This is boring, you're going home

>D. This is boring, suggest getting something to eat

>>40607303
>A. Tell him that they don't usually fight in Karate class. They usually just do techniques and Katas.

Watch intently, at the very least you might get some inspiration for some cool thing to pull at the fight. You're good at studying, right?

>>40607303
>>A. Tell him that they don't usually fight in Karate class. They usually just do techniques and Katas.

>>40607303

Yes, we need a much more in depth description of Lucy.

Does she have freckles?

How tall is she?

What's her shoe size?

Does she have a proportionate, or disproportionate next length?

How about neck width?

>>40607303
>A. Tell him that they don't usually fight in Karate class. They usually just do techniques and Katas.

>>40607378
Whoa, keyboard, what are you doing? That was neck, not next. Don't trust auto correct.

>>40607303

"They don't usually fight in Karate class," you tell him.

"What? Then what the hell do they do?" Bruce asks.

"Usually just techniques and Katas," you answer.

"What the hell is a Kata?" Bruce asks. "Wait, nevermind, I don't really care."

The two of you watch as the class continues their crunches. Before long, they switch to pushups, then finally get up and start doing through techniques.

The first one appears to be designed to escape a bear-hug. It consists of throwing back several elbow strikes, then kicking backwards. It looks pretty ridiculous when they're only doing it to the air, and Bruce soon starts laughing.

They eventually move onto more of what you'd expect. They throw a lot of punches, kicks, and chops. They do some blocks and stuff too, but it's all mostly pretty basic. You find yourself getting a bit distracted by Lucy as the class goes on.

Her technique is perfect, for one thing. It should be, considering how many years she's been doing this. But, her uniform also causes some distractions. It's not exactly tight on its own, but as she works up a good sweat, it begins to stick to her body, giving you and Bruce a few things to stare at.

The class runs for about forty-five minutes altogether, and Lucy looks over, seeing the two of you watching through the window. As soon as her instructor dismisses the class, she marches outside, carrying the towel she uses to wipe away her sweat.

"What are you two doing?" she asks, looking suspiciously between you and Bruce.

>A. You were bored

>>40607806

>>40607879
Because he fucking said.

How about you follow the rules, bruh.

>>40607879
If I had to guess he just wants to prevent situations where all the options get chosen. I think it happened a lot in the last quest.

>>40607667
"I was bored," you tell her.

"Man, I have got to come watch you do Karate more often," Bruce comments.

"Why's that?" Lucy asks suspiciously, before noticing where Bruce is looking.

Lucy gives Bruce a smack across the face, somehow delivering enough force to make him spin and fall onto his back. You also notice that she left a nice red handprint on his cheek.

"Pervert!" she yells before stepping over him and making her way home.

"It was worth it," Bruce tells you as he gets back to his feet.

The two of you get some dinner, then you head home, finding that your dad isn't there. He probably had to stay after school for a faculty meeting or something, so you don't really worry about it.

When six PM rolls around, you're in the old field just outside of town. The field leads to the woods between your town and Allentown. When you get to the field, you see that Bruce and Tim have already arrived. A bunch of other kids from your school, and even some from the Middle School and Elementary School have shown up as well.

After a few minutes, you see that Allentown brought enough people to make the fight fair, at least. Most of them are high schoolers, but you see a few that look much younger.

Tim seems really on edge as they approach. An ugly scowl is plastered to his face, and his right hand is trembling.

Tim doesn't tremble.

Tim's pretty much unanimously considered the toughest kid in your town. Seventeen years old with short brown hair, standing six feet tall, and very well built, he's beaten the crap out of pretty much everyone from Allentown at one point or another, and even a bunch of kids from your own town who managed to piss him off one way or another.

You've never once seen him tremble. You didn't think he got scared, or, whatever he is right now.

>A. Ask Tim if he's okay

>B. Ask Bruce if he knows what's up with Tim

>C. Wait for the Allentown kids to get to you

>>40608086
>A

>>40608086
>B. Ask Bruce if he knows what's up with Tim
Let's not ask him directly, he might just deck us.

Also, SOM, are you just not taking write-ins, even for dialogue, in this quest, or have you just not liked any insofar?

>>40608086
>B. Ask Bruce if he knows what's up with Tim

>>40608086
>>B. Ask Bruce if he knows what's up with Tim

>>40608086
>B. Ask Bruce if he knows what's up with Tim

>>40608086
>A. Ask Tim if he's okay

>>40608150
I'm only taking writeins when I specifically give an option for writeins.

>>40608215
Even for dialogue? So we can't even give our way of interacting with this world some light characterization?

>>40608086
>>A. Ask Tim if he's okay

>>40608215
didnt u give people a ton of shit in human quest for never using write-ins.
this seems vaguely hypocritical

>>40608375
Those were for the fights since people were getting mad at how certain fights went since they only picked the options given instead of trying to combine them with write ins

>>40608151
"Bruce, do you know what's up with Tim?" you ask quietly.

"Beats me," he answers. "I guess he's just really pissed."

"Well, you wimps actually showed up after all," one of the Allentown boys says as he draws closer.

His name is Richard, and if Tim's the strongest kid in your town, Richard is the strongest in Allentown by far. That didn't used to mean much, because Tim usually kicked his ass anyway, but in the past few months, Richard's had one hell of a growth spurt, and gave Tim a really bad beating the last time the two fought.

"I thought you'd learn your lesson when we beat you into the dirt," Richard continues. "But I guess we just didn't hurt you badly enough. We'll do better this time, right boys?"

The Allentown kids laugh, and the boys from your town grow visibly more pissed off. Tim's entire body is shaking now, and he runs at Richard.

"I'll show you, you little bastard!" he shouts, landing a solid punch to Richard's face.

The Allentown kids run forward, and the kids from your school do the same, picking opponents and proceeding to beat the living hell out of each other.

Go big or go home, right?

>>40608508
>B. Go pick on someone your own size

>>40608541
You find someone about your size and run to him, giving a good punch that hits him right in the face.

The kid takes a couple steps back then hits you with an uppercut. As you step back, he runs forward, thrusting his hands forward. You do the same, and the two of you seize each other's shoulders, pushing at each other like sumo wrestlers.

>A. Headbutt him

>B. Let go of one of his shoulders and elbow him in the head

>C. Keep pushing, you're tougher than he is!

>>40608838
>>B. Let go of one of his shoulders and elbow him in the head

Oh yes, elbows, with the force we can get from bodily rotation, it will hurt.

>>40608838
>B. Let go of one of his shoulders and elbow him in the head

>>40608838
>B. Let go of one of his shoulders and elbow him in the head
The headbutt only works as an unexpected move, and it's the most obvious one in this case.

>>40608838
>B. Let go of one of his shoulders and elbow him in the head

>>40608838
>B. Let go of one of his shoulders and elbow him in the head

>>40608838
>. Let go of one of his shoulders and elbow him in the head

>>40608838
>C

Break through those limits!

>>40608856
This is a pretty easy fight to win.

You let go of one of his shoulders, then bring your elbow down on the back of his head. He immediately releases his hold on your shoulders, and falls to the ground, going still.

You kneel at your side, checking to make sure he isn't dead. Feeling a pulse, you get back up just in time to receive a punch in the face from another of the Allentown punks.

When he his next punch, you grab his arm and spin, throwing him to the ground before leaping on top of him. You rain punches down on your pinned foe until you're satisfied you've won. Then, you get up, seeing Tim's fight with Richard.

Tim throws a punch at Richard, who steps out of the way and grabs Tim in a headlock from behind. He punches Tim in the side of the head, but Tim elbows him, forcing Richard to release his hold. Tim spins and takes a step back, and you notice that he looks to be hurt a lot worse than Richard.

Richard clearly notices it too, and steps toward a shaking Tim, who reaches into his jacket and does something unexpected.

He pulls out a gun.

Richard stops in his tracks, and a lot of the nearby kids stop fighting, looking at Tim in shock and fear.

Your school and Allentown high have always fought, but it's never ended in someone's death. At least, not since any of you guys have been around.

You don't know what Tim's thinking, but if he kills someone, the fights between schools are going to get a hell of a lot worse.

>C. Get between Tim and Richard
So what state of the US are we in?

>>40609300
The same one the Simpsons live in.

>>40609222
>B. Rush over and try to take the gun from Tim
>A. Ask Tim what the hell he thinks he's doing

If I can only pick one, B, but I'd like us to yell something along the lines of "WHAT THE HELL DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING"

>>40609222
>B. Rush over and try to take the gun from Tim

I NEED A HERO

>>40609247
You can't just let Tim kill somebody.

You take off running as fast as you can, heading right for Tim. Several of the other students look at you first in confusion, then fear.

"What are you doing?!" Bruce asks you. "Don't be an idiot!"

Richard's eyes snap towards you, fear partially giving way to hope and confusion as he seems to realize what you're about to do.

Unfortunately, Tim figures out what's going on, and spins towards you, pulling the trigger before he even realizes who he's aiming at.

A loud bang is the last thing you hear before everything goes dark.

You're not sure how long the darkness stays, but it feels like only a few seconds before it begins to give way to light. Slowly, you're able to see once again, and what you see confuses you.

You look like you're above a group of mountains, with a winding river snaking below. A similarly shaped pathway works between the mountains, looking quite lonely and empty with nobody walking on it. In the distance, you see what looks like some sort of palace, and a figure approaching you from that palace.

Whoever they are, their face is covered by a hood. They're wearing a large cloak, and flying on a broomstick. No, wait, an oar.

None of this is making any sense to you at all.

The figure draws closer, holding out a hand to you.

>A. Take the person's hand

>B. Ask who they are

>C. Ask where you are

>D. Try to flee

>>40609560
>B. Ask who they are
>C. Ask where you are

>>40609560
>B. Ask who they are
>C. Ask where you are

>>40609560
>B. Ask who they are

>>40609560
>B. Ask who they are

>>40609560
>B. Ask who they are

>>40609560
>C. Ask where you are

>>40609620
"Who are you?" you ask the figure, not taking their hand.

"My name is Kaya," they answer in a female's voice. "You must come with me."

Suddenly, Kaya draws back, and quickly becomes further away. In fact, everything does. The mountains, the river, the path, the palace, it all seems to fade, and everything goes dark once more.

You open your eyes and look around, finding yourself in a hospital room. You're hooked up to some machines, and probably wearing a hospital gown under the covers.

A doctor and your father are in the room with you.

"As I said, he should make a full recovery," the doctor explains. "But we'd like to keep him here for another night to run some tests."

Your father rushes over to you the second that he sees you're awake. He throws his arms around you and gives you a hug, a much more emotional action than he would typically take.

"Thank God you're back," he says before letting go.

>A. Back? Where did you go?

>B. What happened?

>>40609560
>B. Ask who they are

>>40609780
>B. What happened?

>>40609780
>B. What happened?

>>40609780
>B. What happened?

>>40609780
>A. Back? Where did you go?

>>40609780
>B. What happened?

>>40609780
>>B. What happened?

>>40609794
"What happened?" you ask.

"You were shot," your father answers. "You-you died."

"Yes, you were legally dead for six minutes," the Doctor informs you. "You're very lucky to be back."

"And just what the hell were you thinking?!" your father demands. "Going to a fight like that were some little bastard had a gun?"

>A. Tell him you're sorry

>B. Tell him there wasn't supposed to be any guns

>C. Ask if anyone else was shot

You can pick more than one this time

>>40609972
>>B. Tell him there wasn't supposed to be any guns
>>C. Ask if anyone else was shot

"Ay mang, I jus wanne punchin peeps."

>>40609972

>B. What happened?

>C. Ask if anyone else was shot

>>40610030
>>40610102
"Look, I'm sorry, there wasn't supposed to be any guns!" you tell him.

"That's not the point!" your father snaps. "Why in the hell would you get yourself into that kind of situation? Why would you put yourself in danger like that?"

"Sir, it may not be my place to say, but I do not believe yelling is very good for him right now," the Doctor tells your father.

Your dad sighs. "Fine. But we're going to have a serious talk later."

"Was anyone else shot?" you ask.

"No, apparently the boy who shot you didn't really mean to do it," your father explains. "According to Bruce, he dropped the gun the second he realized what he'd done, and some other boy knocked him out."

Probably Richard.

"Bruce also tells me that you were shot trying to save someone else's life," your father tells you. "Is that true?"

>A. Yes

>B. (Lie) No, you were just unlucky

>>40610238
>A. Yes

>>40610238
>A

We hero now.

>>40610238
>A. Yes

>>40610238
>>A. Yes

>>40610238
>B. (Lie) No, you were just unlucky

>>40610238
>A. Yes

>>40609972
>B. Tell him there wasn't supposed to be any guns
>C. Ask if anyone else was shot

>>40610238
>A. Yes

>>40610255
"Yes," you answer truthfully.

Your dad takes a deep breath. "Well, I guess I can't be too mad at you, then. What you did was very noble."

You speak with your dad for a while longer before falling asleep.

In your dreams, you find yourself in a blue, empty room. There are no windows, no doors, and no furniture. It's just you, and that person in the hood once again.

Kaya, if you remember correctly.

"You returned to the land of the living," she observes, stepping towards you. "That was unexpected. Not many people find themselves so lucky."

She stops in front of you. "Something like this makes you very special, and very useful."

>A. Ask what the hell she's talking about

>B. Tell her to take off that robe

>C. Stay quiet

Pick one

>>40610657
>B. Tell her to take off that robe
woo ghost stripper

>>40610657
>B. Tell her to take off that robe

>>40610657
>A. Ask what the hell she's talking about

>>40610306
That is saving someone, bro.

>>40610657
>C. Stay quiet

>>40610657
>B. Tell her to take off that robe
Time to see what the mystery person looks like

>>40610657

>B. Tell her to take off that robe

Try not to say this like that though, it'd come out pretty spaghetti.

>>40610657
>A

>>40610657
>B. Tell her to take off that robe

>>40610657
>B

Do we have a name yet?

>>40610714
"Look, take off that robe," you tell her. "I want to see who I'm talking to."

She stops, nodding. "Very well."

She removes her hood, revealing herself as a dark-haired woman with bright green eyes. Her skin is somewhat pale, her expression neutral, and her hair in a ponytail. She touches her robes, and they turn into a simple black dress.

"There we go," she tells you. "Now, like I was saying. Not many people return to life after dying, even if they were only dead for a few minutes like you. That makes those who do rather special."

She puts her hands behind her back. "That place you saw when you died is called Spirit World. There, King Enma oversees the souls of the dead, sending them to heaven, hell, or wherever he feels they should go. Spirit World also oversees the security of the human world, and for that, they need a Spirit Detective."

>A. What's a Spirit Detective?

>B. Whatever she's talking about, you aren't interested

>C. Say something else

>>40610961
>D
"Now take off the dress."

>>40610961
>A. What's a Spirit Detective?

>>40610961
>D. Tell her to take off that dress

>>40610961
>>A. What's a Spirit Detective?

>>40610961
>A. What's a Spirit Detective?

>A. What's a Spirit Detective?

>>40610742
I meant it in the way of the MC's motivation and perspective of the event

>>40610955
Nope

>>40610961

>A. What's a Spirit Detective?

>>40610986
"What's a Spirit Detective?" you ask.

"A human who works on behalf of Spirit World protecting the human world from violent apparitions, or, demons, if you prefer," she answers. "You see, besides the Spirit World, there's also a world known as the Demon World, where wicked creatures live. They're not supposed to go into the world of humans, but many do anyway. A Spirit Detective's job is to hunt down these demons and stop them from causing chaos."

She smiles. "Of course, we wouldn't ask just any human to do this job. It's quite dangerous, after all, so we need someone well qualified. Luckily, being dead has given you the necessary qualifications. Every human has inside them what is called "spirit energy". When you died and returned to your body, your body became attuned to that energy. You'll be stronger, faster, and able to endure a lot more now. But, that's only the beginning. You'll be able to learn all sorts of neat abilities to use in your job as detective."

>A. Sure, you'll do it

>B. Hello no

>C. Ask if you get paid

>>40611191
>C. Ask if you get paid

>>40611191
>C. Ask if you get paid

"Sounds interesting and exciting"

>>40611191
>A. Sure, you'll do it

>>40611191
>B. Hello no
Sorry lady we've got finals to study for.

>>40611191
>C. Ask if you get paid

Services require payment, after all.

Also holy christ the street sign captchas are the fucking worst.

>>40611191
>C, how's the pay and benefits?

Hey SOM, what's the name of our hometown?

>>40611191
>A. Sure, you'll do it
Time to get a spirit beast

>>40611337
Clarkfield

>>40611191
>A. Sure, you'll do it

>>40611191
>A. Sure, you'll do it
Are we going to come up with a name at the end of the thread or do you already have one for us SOM?

>>40611367
And what's our name?
Putting my vote in for Clark Field.

>>40611353
Don't remember what that is I hope its a wolf or Siberian husky

>>40611457
Basically Yusuke had to take care of egg that would absorb some of his spirit energy when he was dead. It was test on whether or not he would get another chance at life depending on the his spirit energy, if he did good deeds the egg would have hatched into something pure or good while if he did bad the egg would have hatched into something that would have eaten him.

>>40611252
"Sure, I'll do it," you tell her.

"Wonderful!" she replies with a grin. "In that case, I'll set up a meeting with Koenma for tomorrow evening. Make sure you get some sleep tomorrow night, he doesn't like being kept waiting!"

Kaya waves at you, and you open your eyes, finding that it's morning. You're not entirely sure what to make of your dream. It felt pretty damn real, but it also could have been just a dream.

Oh well, you'll find out the next time you go to sleep.

>To be continued

That concludes our first thread.

Before you go, feel free to discuss names. Whichever one gets the most support will be the name of your character (I do reserve veto rights, and the names Kaguya and Frank will not be allowed).

We will hopefully continue tomorrow, but if not, certainly sometime in the next few days. Follow me on Twitter @qmdralo to see when new threads are up. And, if you have any questions for me, feel free to ask at ask.fm/qmdralo

I'll hang out here to answer questions while you all decide on a name.

>>40611539
Oh yeah

Shit I need to watch that again

I wonder if spirit wolves can hatch from eggs...

>>40611560
Kaguya and Frank aren't allowed, huh?

I vote Shin.

>>40611560

>John
>Roy
>Steven
>David
>Jack
>Jax

>>40611560
So is Bruce our Kazuma or is it going to be Richard?

>>40611621
>>40611611
No.

>>40611622
Making assumptions here.

>>40611560
Joseph or Jonathan

>>40611560
Can we use Kagunk or Fraya for our name? For a more serious name suggestion I'd suggest Kirby.

Sounds like a very Minnesota type name.

>>40611614
>>40611650
2 for John.

>>40611645
Hmm no Shin...

I'm gonna back Joseph like >>40611650 said

>>40611560

>Ryu
>Jin
>Obama

>>40611734
I vote Obama.

>>40611685
So what would have happened if we accepted Kaya's hand, would we have gone the yusuke way?

>>40611764
You would have vanished just outside the palace.

>>40611650
>>40611614
Joseph or John is fine

>>40611775
Is The Mc 1hundo percent american?

>>40611775
So what option would have killed MC 100% instead of getting saved at the hospital?

>>40611796
I'm leaving appearance to you guys, but him and his father were both born in the USA

>>40611782
What about

John Joseph
Nah but there's already a JJ on /tg/

>>40611775
What about Tristram?

>>40611822
John Jacob Jinglehimherschmidt?

>>40611821
Are we black? Can we be black?

>>40611782
We seem to be tied between John and Joe

>>40611928
John

>>40611928
John

>>40611959
>>40612086
John it is.

>>40611883

>>40612194
>shit anime

>you want it

>you're shit

>I hate it, I'm shit

>Everyone else has an opinion too, they're shit

Now that THAT is out of the way.

Can we not do reference names at all?

>>40612209
And we're already not a girl, so that's out of the line of possibility.
My question still stands, SOM.

Given we live in Clarkfield, and are from the US, we most likely live in Minnesota.

>>40612504
I know I was referring to the skin color
