======================

"As my wisest and oldest companions... I ask you guys... What is the perfect gift to get our creator, Mary?"

"......................."

Hmm...

Are they trying to say 'nothing'? Is that the best gift?

>>2197715
She needs a male companion

>>2197715
Oh baby I didn't expect this little bonus thread here today!

Maybe they think that everyone in the dungeon is the best gift? Maybe you guys are the gift?

>>2197715
She needs your love!

>>2197715
a vacation!

>>2197715
Tell her you hate banking upper management

>>2197715

I second a vacation. Mary needs some time to herself so she can relax and unwind.

>>2197715
Feasibly she could make just about whatever she wants using runes.

Write her a nice letter saying how much she and what she does means to you.

>>2197715

Slime hugs? A mountain of jelly donuts?

A massage chair! That would probably suit her. Then again, I guess she does have constant access to the spa...

Hmm... Maybe you could get her some new runes somehow. I forget if we have the exploring monster upgrade, but if so, maybe pay a season's beating on her rivals.

>>2197715
Your body.

Seriously, though, she seems to be someone who likes her private time. Perhaps a nice book?

OH WAIT! We could use the dungeon management system to look at her social media accounts and scan her! All we need to do is give you admin privileges...

...

>(plops on to Curi's head)

Done.

>>2197715
A vacation! And more runes!

>>2197715
Smother her with your love, affection and most importantly hugs

>>2197715
ETERNAL YOUTH

>>2197715
Are we even sure Mary celebrates Christmas? As opposed to, say, Hannukuh, or Festivus, or Quanza?

>>2197715
Maybe they think less fondly of their creator.

I think she'd appreciate some office supplies. A red Swingline stapler, perhaps.

>>2197715
If you stopped Dungeoneer from dressing her up in lewd Christmas outfits, that'd probably work.

>>2197715
Their rune count might be too low for proper sapience and desires.

>>2197715
Give her a slime baby

>>2197715

You require the assistance of a human, Curi. Quick, to the cyborg!

>>2197715
>>2197738
I second the massage chair. Make it out of slimes.

>>2197721
A male companion..? I don't understand.

>>2197731
>>2197746
I already show her my love ALL the time. She even told me to dial back the love a bit. I forget that humans need to 'breathe' sometimes.

It's so funny that they have to inhale!

>>2197754
Hmm... I don't think we have any of those here.

>>2197774
There's already plenty of those.

>>2197755
Noted.

>>2197750
=Everyone= celebrates Christmas!

>>2197732
>>2197735
>>2197744

She did mention that her back has been hurting recently and that she's been tired... In fact, she's sleeping right now...

That's it, I got it!

1/2

>>2197790
>There's already plenty of those.
Must be a tough job being mother to all the slime children, Curi.

>>2197790

You know, Curi, if you got some of the NPCs to take a sound, comfy, and tech rune, you could build a totally bitchin' massage thingy. Integrate it into a back brace to help out with Mary's awful posture.

>>2197790
>That's it, I got it!
Are you going to become her personal slime water bed and cradle and support her back while she sleeps?

>>2197790
Send her to seiba land! The greatest theme park dungeon this side of the... the... thing!

>Curi places the crown on her head.

"Today, I will be in charge! Gather the comfy slimes, Mary will NOT be disturbed today!"

>The pair of slimes look at her.

Wait... Wait.

I have control over everything. I can just...

>Curi places an order on all comfy slimes to mobilize to Mary's room.

Ha! So easy!

But, this is only part one of my gift...

Part two is getting runes.

I don't want to touch the runes we currently have, so our only option is to get more.

I can try running the dungeon in her stead and get runes like that ooor...

Utilizing the miracle of Christmas, assemble a team to go out and get more runes!

(This special ability only works once per year, during the holiday season.)

Either we bring back new runes for her, more runes for her, or we can make a nice gift using them!

It's a win/win/win.

>>2197818
TALLY HO! IT'S SLIMEVENTURE TIME!

>>2197818
Let's harness the power of gift-giving to make a name for ourselves as raiders to be FEARED!
See who's available for the raid: try to make the party 50/50 experienced monsters and underutilized monsters.

>>2197818
How big of a team are we talking here?

>>2197818
Magical slime, miracle curi, activate Christmas miracle! All the runes! Time runes, world runes, fancy runes, evil runes, corruption runes, lewd runes , get em all!

>>2197818
You could just tell all of the slimes to multiply, who needs anything other than slimes, right? Show Mary what slimekind can do!

>>2197818
ASSEMBLE THE TEAM
Send out the slime royalty to raid!
We'll make an RPG party with Mirelle or Rosalyn as our main tank!

>>2197818
TIME FOR SLIME

>>2197818
Wooo!

Let's go raid that red bitch's place in the spirit of giving!

In this case, the gift we're giving is a lesson on why you should not fuck with Mary's Dungeon.

>>2197818
It's time for a Royal Raiding Party! Send out the knights!

>>2197818

Hmm. You know, you could create a non-hostile dungeon environment for the season and invite adventurers to enjoy themselves. All it would cost you is a couple of candy and possibly fancy runes to make Candy Cane golems and Hot Chocolate Slimes. Making the Spa accessible and throwing over the whole dungeon with a wintery theme could really bring in a hefty chunk of business.

Then, we can roll out the A-team to raid some dungeons. Princess Raiding Party could be fun. Either way, we kind of need three rune monster or above to make sure they can be trusted without adult supervision.

>>2197818
Get runes for "Man", "Virility", "Romance" and "Reproduction"

>>2197848

This might work with high-level players if they have shittons of disposable currency that would still be valuable to a relatively low-level dungeon.

>>2197848
This sounds like a ton of fun.

>>2197848
oooooh this man has some good ideas too...

>>2197818
ADVENTURE

>>2197818
You, The Knights, and all the royalty go out for a raid. Oilivia stays in and makes sure if Mary wakes up she gets Spa'd into complacency entirely. Cleric plant keeps the staff demons in line.

Whatever you do, make sure Punch Mimic joins the party.

File: 6.png (122 KB, 800x600)

Alright! I'm glad you guys agree with me on this!

We can go out, storm the dungeons, and come back with all the riches for Mary!

For the citadel!

>>2197848
Oooh.... That's also a really good idea. It wouldn't be that hard to make a special seasonal event, I think.

>Curi calls on Dungeoneer to see if they could do such a thing.

"Easily," The Construct says, "-And-, if you want, you can just give me the crown and I can run the whole event for you while you're off doing your own thing. Many hands make for lighter work and all that."

>>2197900
Don't do it. Terrible things happen when someone gets their hands on two crowns.

>>2197900
hard no on the crown business. Mary would be mad at us!

>>2197900
Dungeoneer works closely with Mari, you can count on her. Do it.

>>2197900
oh but I want to be able to affect both of these events, they're just too good, can we perhaps hold off on one and then still influence the other?

It'd be so nice to see both sides, and I really don't want to bully Dungeoneer on Christmas...

>>2197900

I, um... Her brain scares me. Also, she already has a crown. You should stick around, Curi. The lady of the house needs to be ready to welcome guests and lay the Christmas smack down if need be.

>>2197900

If you do that, she'll likely turn it into a sexy dungeon for sexy adventurers. Which may appeal to some people, but seems to be against the spirit of Christmas.

Maybe for Valentine's Day or something.

>>2197900
You should invade the heck out of the other slime dungeon, show them who's the real slime.

Also sorry for using the H word, got excited.

>>2197900
Don't give her the crown, she already has a crown, don't double crown her

>>2197900
The Dungeoneer is not allowed to wear the Crown. Putting that aside, As the most powerful slime in the dungeon, Curi should stay behind to maintain the peace. Trust in the Captain Knight to lead the raiding party.

>>2197900
not today, she would be way too lewd.

>>2197900
Give it to Cleric plant, s/he's the oldest intelligent monster not going along. Dungeoneer already has a crown and the last time the crowns/artifacts of power touched things went nuclear for a bit.

>>2197900
If we did that, she'd make nothing but dick monsters for the dungeon.

>>2197900
Put it this way, if everyone else is so worried about Dungeoneer with the crown, send your children to adventure, and you help supervise with Dungeoneer and work together. It's Christmas, be nice.

>>2197920
You're forgiven.

"No, it's quite alright Dungeoneer. I think I'll be able to do both in the same day, don't you think?"

"Aw... Alright."

>>2197943
"But... I would like to work -with- you, for this."

"Really? You want my ideas and stuff?"

"Of course~"

"Oh boy. I have so many ideas. Well, exactly what kind of changes do -you- want to be made to the dungeon? Thanks to the Miracle of Christmas buff we can do just about anything to the dungeon for almost nothing."

>>2197961
lights and tinsel and stuff everywhere.

>>2197961
Hot chocolate fountain with tiny marshmallows floating in it

>>2197961
Fairy lights with actual fairies, A light snow falling everywhere. Get some music mobs christmas caroling. A free gift for every adventurer that shows up, maybe some kind of christmas trinket with a small effect on it.

>>2197961
Put up the ornaments!
We need to make it holiday themed!
Have christmas outfits for everyone!

>>2197961
Lots of decorations! Make all the slimes wear cute xmas themed uniforms! Maybe invent a event where somebody stole the xmas tree of the star decoration of top of it of the citadel and adventurers have to recover it and earn bonus points for the store

>>2197961
We need big poofy hats. With fuzzy baubles. Remember the goal is to make Bloops, the cutest things in the world...MORE CUTE!

>>2197961

> Turn the fountain room with the giant slime into an ice skating rink with ramps.
> Adorn the central area with wintery decor, lights, tensel, and just enough frost to make you crave a warm beverage, which we can cooperate with Novem to have plenty of.
> Music slime plays holiday music everywhere
> Winter Maze is scrambled and disarmed so that people can just enjoy getting lost in the cold. If they make it to the end, they are treated to warm cider.
> The battlegrounds are now the Snowball War area. We may need a new monster, a frost maiden (water+air+magic) to turn the whole place into a field of just, the perfect snow. The snowballs always come out just right and fortresses don't crumble.

>>2197961
Ornaments, candy canes, hot chocolate fountains, white chocolate snow flakes, Random presents!, Santa costumes, Elves making toys!, Reindeer flying about.

>>2197961
A big ol' Christmas tree in the center of the citadel, dressed up in tinsel and magical lights.

>>2197961
Needs more slimes, really. Slime furniture, slime housing, slime beds, slime cups. It it ain't sticky we ain't with it.

PRESENT MIMICS!

>>2197961
Have all the adventurers trade their weapons for special winter weapons. Like Candy Cane swords and Snowball Launchers.
They need to use these weapons to defend the dungeon in special raid events against the invading hordes of Snowmen and Gingerbreadmen.
If they beat enough, they have to fight the Krampus, who wants to steal Christmas from all of them and hit them with a willow switch.

>>2197998

> The Laser Caves of Darkness become a feasting horn of alternating lights. Maybe have a separate section that is like Light Bright, where people can draw their own images and have them join the wall.
> Spa is at a special discount
> Stores stock winter gear
> Rosa's library is open and the Librarian will read fables to any young heroes who come by
> A small gift for good kids, who are welcomed to join. Be nice to the elf (ie. our cyborg lovechild)

>>2198023

Make it an event in the Snowball War Arena?

>>2197961
Acquire as many cute boys for Mary as possible. Humans are really into having plenty of companions of the opposite gender.

>>2197961
Get a Christmas Carol allegory up in here! Dress up some slimes as the Ghosts of Time: Time Slime in the Past role to introduce the gimmick, an upscaled, well, *you* for the Present role (you're the most jolly slime I can think of, plus the present ghost is usually really big for some reason), and Colt as the ghost of Future. Calculator could also play the role of Marley!

Oh, of course. Since it's free:
>ENHANCE KNOCKERS for everyone in the dungeon. Everyone.

>>2197961
Candy cane stripper poles. She can man them personally!

>>2198085
Of course.

Oh boy. These are all great ideas.

I love the mock fighting and the mazes.
And making the place look festive would be fun!

>>2197998
>>2198040
Excellent ideas. I think we can definitely go with these. It looks like with the Miracle of Christmas we can do so much stuff!

It's amazing the things they just give away during the holiday. Almost as though some greater being doesn't want us to worry about having to keep track of a bunch of things, just for one day.

I think we just have to work with what we have and we'll have a lot of freedom.

>>2198023
An excellent idea. It would be pretty terrible if people just got into a buncha real fights in the middle of this festive event.

Let's see what Dungeoneer is working on.

"Curi! I present... The staff uniform for the event!"

>>2198096
Great! So where's yours, Dungeoneer?

>>2198096
"aren't you supposed to be the one wearing it?"

>>2198096
I like the idea Dungeoneer, keep the skirt mostly fine, but add some more fabric between that and her chest, and a long billowing coat.

You'll want to wear one of these two Dungeoneer. Come on now. You're staff too. And we know you're not as...keen on wearing what you make. So why not make it nice for everyone?

>>2198096

Emphasize curves but no skimpiness.

Unless Dungeoneer volunteers to wear it for the duration of the event and to act as a greeter for the dungeon.

>>2198096

Oh no, I think that one would look much better on you, dear. Just trim the skirt up another inch or so and stick some elf ears on you. Oh? Did I just hear someone volunteer to be the dungeon greeter?

I mean, makes sense that it would be you, Dungeoneer. So good spirited of you.

>>2198096
We need some underboob, sideboob, and shortshort variations! Otherwise, spot on!

>>2198096
Hide the midriff and we'll approve it.

Also, it needs to be warm. It's going to become a winter wonderland in here, don't need the employees to be freezing.

>>2198096
Add a midriff, They'll get cold. Maybe a classy coat too? we're ALL wearing this, that means you too.

>>2198096

Librarian should be in a comfy, long robe, maybe showing a little bit of breast toward the top, but otherwise modest, with a long bell cap that droops down to her waist.

>>2198096
Tell dungeoneer she forgot to apply the charm of 'enhanced knockers'.

>>2198096
Applaud her work
Where are the Christmas coloured slimes?

>>2198096
That is not appropriate winter clothing. DENIED

>>2198096
So, where is yours, Dungeoneer?

>>2198096
Model it on Isabelle. I want to make sure it can stand up to sweeping eye lasers and cyborg arm plasma cannons.

"Very lovely, if a bit revealing. Where's yours, dungeoneer?"

".... I uhm... Have a different one."

"Uniforms should match, don't you think?"

"Yeah, well... I mean, they won't really see me or anything...."

"But you're part of the staff, aren't you? You should match with everyone else. Especially since we'll need a greeter for the event."

"...... You're so much like Mary...."

Good, good. Approved.

You still have to wear the midriff-less one, though.

>>2198157
Nice. Make sure to put a Santa Hat on Metal Slime too, please.

>>2198152
>She gets a lewd elf costume.
Well if you insist.

>>2198157
Much more acceptable, now make sure you have one for everyone in the staff...this DOES include you, my dear.

Checks out! Let's get everyone dressed.

The dungeon has been completely reworked. Many of the more difficult encounters have been removed and the whole thing has been given a festive flair.

Places that would normally be resting spots after the dungeon has been completed are now open for people to explore.

Weapons are being confiscated at the front desk and being replaced with items that deal no damage and are quite festive looking.

Also, if a person manages to complete the dungeon, they get to keep the item!

Now, they are more than welcome to simply use the facilities and relax... But, by participating in special events throughout the dungeon, they can win prizes.

YUM has been kind enough to provide us with all the candy monsters and candy themed traps we could ever want.

>>2198336
Poor Mirelle with nothing to do (yet).

Fetch quest to get her skates and a magic spell that allows her to skate on the ice with her friends when?

>>2198336
.. So can we have a CANDY DRAGON?

>>2198356
Gummy Wyrm! Careful, he bites! And is also chewy!

>>2198336
They're supplying deliciously sweet femboys? Sign me up.

>>2198336

You might want to turn the Arena into a Snowball Fight Arena. Have Mage Slime magic up the snow a bit, and people can build and buffet each other as much as they want.

Because CHRISTMAS! And nothing can POSSIBLY go wrong with the magic of CHRISTMAS! Now go!

please put out some cookies and Milk and a landing pad for Santa. Or the slime version of Santa. For all the good little slimes of the dungeon

>>2198383
Because she's taking a well deserved break, gosh!

>>2198383
Because Mary keeps bankers hours and Bankers don't work on Christmas

>>2198383
If we don't already have it in the dungeon, I feel it's important that we have Mistletoe for this run.

>>2198393
...can we make a slime santa by fusing together some runes?

>>2198383
Because she's very tired, and as busy little elves we're going to make sure she wakes up to the best day ever.

"Because, she's taking a well deserved break! Gosh. She's been running herself ragged since she started. I think our poor dungeon master needs a good break."

>After a bit of murmuring, all the staff agrees.

Now... We can do both things in one day, but not if we do them one after another. We need to do them at the same time. We can only keep Mary asleep for so long.

So, what should the crown focus on? Should we go with an assembled team on a dungeon run and let someone else handle the dungeon

or

handle the dungeon and let someone else go on the dungeon run?

>>2198383
Because you wanted to give your boss something special. And this was a great option

P.S

Dungeoneer you look cute.

>>2198431
I think we should handle the dungeon run, I think a combo of our staff can organize a very festive and fun run for everyone.

>>2198431
Assembled team!
I vote for Mirelle or Rosalyn for party lead.

>>2198431
I'd love it if we sent someone to hardcore raid spread holiday cheer in other dungeons.

>>2198431
Go with the expeditionary force, Curi!

>>2198431
Let someone else go on the dungeon run! We need to keep a close watch on the dungeon itself!

>>2198431
Let the princesses go on a dungeon run with Colt in charge. We should focus on making sure everything goes smoothly here.

>>2198431
Let's spread some Christmas Cheer!

...By raiding the shit out of Red's place.

Dungeon run!

I mean the staff were made to run a dungeon, whats the worst that could happen when given a little Autonomy

>>2198431
We gotta stay and make sure things don't blow up here. Others can go on the dungeon run

>>2198470
I don't think stuff will blow up considering the adventurers have zero damage weapons. Let the staff handle the dungeon.

>>2198431

Dungeon run! Tis the season.

>>2198431

Curi, I have an idea. How about you send a weaker version of yourself with your daughters to do some "caroling", and stay here to run things. The other you can maybe give us a link back to home base.

Alright, we'll try our hand at raiding! But, I'll be checking in on the dungeon every now and again to make sure things are going well.

Really, I don't think anything that bad could happen.

Now, we need to assemble a team...

Let's see who's available.

Hmm...

We can bring up to 3 people including myself without triggering a Raid Mode.

>>2198526
Dark Slime, Ashley and Lily

>>2198526
Rosalyn, Mirelle, Simon

>>2198526
Rosalyn, Simon, Lily

The other girls will be able to handle Christmas. But Lily...no way in hell. And if Simon is going...Rosalyn will want to come too.

>>2198526
Lily, Ashley, Reginald

>>2198531
curi has the power of all basic slimes. so she can do gravity control and time control, she just nerfs herself during boss battle so the heroes have fun instead of insta-gibbing them.

>>2198546
Did you reply to the wrong post?

>>2198526
ROSALYN, WATCHER, COLT

>>2198526

Ask who wants to go? I don't see your eldest as someone for holiday cheer. Maybe Lily, Regi, and Colt?

>>2198526
Take whichever of the princesses want to join in. Make it a family outing!

>>2198551
saying we have no reason to take dark slime since curi techically IS dark slime.

>>2198526
Fancy Mimic, Punch Mimic, and Mimic!

>>2198526
Any of the Princesses or the Knights seem fine in my book.

I'd be tempted to say Boss Rush them with the strongest guys we have, but crushing people isn't exactly in the holiday spirit.

>>2198562
Yeah, so? I want to bond with Dark Slime, she seems edgy in a fun way.

>>2198563
On second thought switch Colt for Punch Mimic. Redundant with Rosalyn and I don't really like him anyway.

>>2198526
Lily, Rosalyn, Watcher

>>2198526
Bring everyone.

Raid mode activate. See if they can withstand waves of slime

>>2198568
You mean Chaos Slime?

How is this team? Lily, my oldest daughter, Ashley for healing, and Dark Slime because sometimes I worry about her and I think she needs to spend some time with her family instead of watching anime in her room.

>>2198601
...Yeah, sure that work!

>>2198601
It's not my favourite group, but I think there is some fun to be had here.

>>2198601
Perfect.

>>2198601
DARK SLIME IS CUTE!!

CUUUUUUUUTE

>>2198601
Works for me

>>2198601
Looks fine I would've preferred another princess instead of Lily though. We should put in Sophie instead of Lily.

>>2198601
I can go with this, but next raid we have to take Chaos Slime. Poor girl needs to meet more people...

>>2198601
Take RSP instead of Lily. We should find out what her interest is in your son.

>>2198601

By the magic of Christmas, can we empower dark slime with an extra rune? Otherwise, this is fine.

>>2198601
Take RSP instead of Lily, too many magic users.

>>2198601
Is dark slime core a batman symbol?

>>2198601
>>2198632

Yeah, we sorta do need a Knight. RSP can handle it and give out laws.

Hmm... That is true. My great Paladin shall accompany me instead!

"My Queen... It is an honor to join you in this. I will not let the citadel down."

"We're happy to have you along~ I'm sorry I have to take you away from my son for a bit. But we need someone strong."

"Of course. I understand the importance of this mission. The Dungeon Master will be pleased by whatever we bring back. But, perhaps we can bring the prince along with us? It will be a good learning experience for him."

"Mmm... I considered it but we need a more balanced team. While you two make a wonderful team, we can't take him for now."

"We... We're not a team, like Lily and her guard are. I am his teacher."

"Fufufu... Are you saying you wouldn't fuse with him..?"

"M-my Queen! i would never consider such a thing! That... That is..."

I've made a small version of me that I'll leave here in the dungeon. This should help me keep an eye on things.

Now, let's see what dungeons there are.... Mary has a few dungeon masters on her contact list so we can approach any of these guys.

>Lord Savage
*Extremely hard dungeon filled with monsters that are 6 runes or above.
*High risk, high reward.
*Bearer of the Almighty Rune.

*Some runes in his dungeon are: Almighty, Power, Impact, Bone.

>Glass Spinner
*A puzzle dungeon that has a relatively high success rate. Few monsters, many traps.
*Used to farm Glass Weapons. Strong but fragile items.
*Recently opened a shop to sell merch.

*Some runes in her dungeon are: Glass, Soul, Golem, Water

>Toxic Sisters
*A dungeon that focuses primarily on monsters that use debuffs.
*The older sister is quite popular. The younger doesn't appear often.

*Some runes that appear in their dungeon are: Toxic, Entropy, Water, Disease.

>Slime Matron

*Copycat.

>Red Widow
*A dungeon that is fairly standard as far as things go. Extremely rich.
*She has recently opened a spa in her dungeon.

*Some runes that appear in her dungeon are: Water, Fire, Earth, Wind, Light, Dark.

>>2198828
>>Red Widow
Isn't that the one who decided to fuck with Slimecrown?

Crush her.

>>2198828
I wanna snuggle the tiny Curi!

>Glass Spinner

>>2198828
Small you is cute, Curi!
I say we go against Slime Matron. This is the ULTIMATE rival fight.

>>2198828
>Lord Savage
Go big or go home!

>>2198828
Lets try Glass Spinner!

It's not the same without Mary to see it happening.

>>2198828
Lord Savage or Glass Spinner. Almighty and Soul runes sound nice.

Red Widow

>*She has recently opened a spa in her dungeon.
>Someone's jealous.

But no, seriously let's go
>Glass Spinner.

>>2198828
>Slime matron

She’s been around longer and there’s no harm in learning from experience, or seeing how to differentiate yourself from the competition.

Let’s just be sure to be polite.

>>2198828

If you gave me a map and a day to think on it (Crown time, of course), I could probably cook up a half dozen ways to kill at least a few of Savage's monsters. That swag bag with an Almighty rune would make Mary a very happy woman.

> Red Widow
Deplete her coffers for everything they are worth. Also, that skank is trying to rip us off.

>>2198828
>>Glass Spinner
Puzzles for Christmas

>>2198828
I spy with ny little eye... an almighty rune!
Giving that to Mary would be awesome! Go go savage!

>>2198828
Take on Lord Savage! All his runes are ones Mary doesn't have. Show you're the strongest slime!

>>2198828
Glass Spinner is too easy with the crown's powers. you'll just google-fu everything anyway you cheeseballs
Visit the Slime Matron. We need to see what she's doing and either do something else or do it better. Who knows, this could actually improve relations instead of aggravate them. It's a Christmas miracle, after all!

>>2198853
>>2198846
I agree, Slime Matron doesn't like that we're copying her style. If she has her own slime knights and such, we might have to go in a different direction. Though it might be cool to see Rosalyn battle them!

>>2198828
I'm thinking Glass Spinner. Savage sounds tempting for the runes, but I'd worry for Dark Slime in a high level dungeon.

>>2198853
Watch her be running the exact same event we are right now.

>>2198853
>>2198859
We don't need to spy her to make our own slime dungeon good and unique. If people are coming to us already, we're doing fine; either we are different and better, or we're naturally outclassing her.

>>2198872
But.. but... almighty!

>>2198828
Go beat that copyslime up!

>>2198872
>Watch her be running the exact same event we are right now.
I wanna see a fight between Curi and Slime Matron, who's the better slime mom?

>>2198828
Lord Savage is not going to turn out well.
Toxic Sisters?! NO! Poison is a direct counter to slimes, as we've seen from the alchemist.
We could go mess with Red Widow but I'm not sure we want to start shit with her yet.
Glass Spinner...? I dunno, I want to fight things.

Let's go visit Slime Matron and see what her dungeon is like, so that we can try to keep our dungeon distinct from hers.

>>2198853
>>2198859
But if she's truly a copy cat. We're not going to be putting our best effort out to give new runes for Mary! Rivalry and scouting another day!

Bring glass spinner a time rune. There are a million wonderful puzzles she could make with that. Also, comfy slime bath salts, and maybe a bath robe from the spa.

I'm not sure if she can travel, or if she is stuck like Mary, but offering her a free pass to come hang out at the spa in slimecrown for a day would be a great way to get to know her and the business.

>>2199592
If we wanted to give Glass spinner a time rune, you should've brought TIME SLIME

>>2199772

She would have to KILL Dia to get it that way. You know this, yes? Just bring her a magic hourglass made with a time rune instead.

>>2199832
Instead of killing Dia, let's give her a Fist rune and World rune.

She picked it up to be able to talk with us. It's not that hard of a language to learn if you're not a slime. You just have to talk with your mouth filled with liquid to get the proper tones.

"Dark Slime, do your thing!"

"(Of course... I will absorb... All light..!)"

like elf sap, for example

Alright, then.

Look around for any source of light that might be shining through cracks.

>>2200567

Create a straight, enclosed walkway of opaque ice that you all can use to walk across the room. If the mirrors can't reflect you, then they probably can't do anything else.

Just go to the door first of all. It's possible this is just a regular room with mirrors.

We should retrace our steps back and try a mirror door.

Rolled 15 (1d20)

>>2200650
your shadows are still at the start!

The mirrors- your shadows probably move according to the mirrors and they have to be with you at the exit!

Curse your well toned, devious ass, Glass Spinner!

>>2200650
I think we need to get our reflection to follow us

See how they stayed at the entrance in the two mirrors we see?

>>2200650
oops dropped your shadows

>>2200650

Congratulations, Curi. It's a mirror match. Look to the other side of the room. Good news is that if they can only do what you do, you don't have to open up a confrontation. See if you can walk them to the opposite side of the room and have them open the door.

>>2200650
Can you open one of the reflections?

>>2200650
Say thank you for the hint!

>>2200650
I love how the shadows don't even match up with where they are standing.

>>2200650
Open the door's reflection

grumble grumble grumble

guess we need to do this the long way, move around and see how shadows react. maybe dark slime can get some special insight into shadow control.

So this is either a puzzle where we have to fight our shadows, or we have to use our shadows to open the door rather than our bodies. Attempt the second to begin with. With all the mirrors, there is most likely a single spot which will accomplish exactly that.
