Nino: Better luck with that OTHER sign, maybe?

18-Sep-2018

Uh, maybe. You sure do hope so, since there seems to be nothing here besides these signs. Maybe this one will be helpfu- Nino: Make sure the sign is not just another illusion. No, no, of course not! Of COURSE this, of all things, is real and not an illusion. Oh sorry, sorry, sorry, for you so presumptuously got way ahead of yourself by expecting to find anything useful in this dump. Soooo sorry! Is this perhaps what monsters call "modern art"? Someone vomiting on a piece of paper and framing it? Actually, comparing this crap to that act is an insult to the act itself. Nino: Is there nothing more to this cave? Almost nothing. On the opposite side, there are only a couple things of note. Nino: Take…

-/-/-/-/->Nino: Don't look at it! It's bad!

15-Sep-2018

You fail horribly. You fail so, so horribly. -/-/-/-/-/->Nino: Run! You attempt to run, but you end up just tumbling on your back. In your panic, you hit something cold behind you. -/-/-/-/-/-/->Nino: Don't freak out, inspect the object. You fail to see how this couldn't make you freak out MORE. What the hell could be behind you now? More dead you's??? Oh that would just be DELIGHTFUL, you sure want to see your decapitated head again!!! Maybe it could be a HEADLESS BODY this time, a nice change of pace, HUH?? Or someone else's corpse, how's THAT for a twist???? OR, OR... Or... A... A Sign? ...Illusions? Nino: Woah ho ho! That's one for the books isn't it, ha ha. But you should probably just turn around and ignore…

Nino: While you take a break from adventuring, why don't you explain your goal in clear, non-vague language?

19-Aug-2018

YES, fuck the police! You'll have your breaks whenever you want, and you want one NOW! Your goal is... Kind of hard to explain, so that's a difficult request. You're still not even sure how you'll accomplish it! But hey, you can explain the reasons as to why you're seeking it. You see, ultimately, accomplishing it will make the long awaited salvation for all of humankind come true! Once it is done, everyone will be free!! That's a great end result to justify all the means you'll never hesitate to take. Although, as nice as it sounds, that's not really your main motivation. It's more just a nice bonus result. Nino: Maybe that friendly, curious fella behind you could help. So to elaborate, your main motivation is- Huh? Cut to…

Nino: ARIA! OH NO!

17-Aug-2018

Who the hell is that?? And like you said earlier, even if you knew who that was, there is no time to worry about anyone - Anyone other than yourself, that is. You didn't come here to make friends and then worry about them, no. You have a noble purpose, a destiny that you must fulfill. As such, it stands that friends are just a distraction... Or, they could be a little useful if you're able to exploit them, but otherwise they're forever detrimental in the road of achieving your goals. Nino: Pull the arrow out. Already ahead of this, you pull out the arrow. You begin to simultaneously, nigh reflexively, use your healing hands to close the wound. It hurts like hell, but nothing you couldn't stand. Nino: Realise…

Aria: What's that shiny thing on the floor?

15-Aug-2018

Your eyes fall on something shiny on the floor. It looks like a metal hand file...? This... Definitely wasn't here before! There's no way you'd miss something like this! Aria: cut your leg off with the knife, hobble your way to victory! NO! You don't quite feel like BLEEDING TO DEATH yet! Plus, this thing isn't a *knife*, you couldn't use it to cut any body parts off, even if you wanted to. (Which you don't.) ((Please don't suggest that again.)) On closer look, it seems like this file has seen some use, although not enough to lose it's sharpness. There is an odd insignia engraved on the handle, but it doesn't seem familiar to you. You might have an idea of what to use this on. Yes, an idea…

Solis: Are you alright, Kotori? Solis: ... Solis: Wow. Unresponsive. Corona: Dude, I'm so glad I'm not you right now, Kotori. Kotori: She was your friend, wasn't she? Kotori: What do you want, you two. Solis: Jeez, I was just checking on you. Kotori: I'm fine. Happy? Corona: Maaaan, you sure it's fine?? Everything about this screams the opposite of fine! Kotori: No, it is fine. Corona: {}:/ Corona: Well, whatever you say. Corona: You sure you can uh, do the thing with the human gal? Kotori: ... Solis: Yeah, uh, wasn't that... Solis: Your best friend? Kotori: ...Ugh! It doesn't matter! Kotori: None of this matters! Yes, I'm sure I can do it, okay? Kotori: At least this time, I'm forced to stop hesitating. Corona: This time?? Corona: What…

Solis: Have value in your own existence, all of your limbs, and more than one eye. Tell the truth.

08-Aug-2018

Solis: Spill the beans before Suvillan spills your guts. Solis: In summary, Kotori has helped a human sneak in and then helped us capture them. Solis: Corona has possibly killed one other human without the ritual, Solis: And... Solis: All three of us thought we could pass the existence of the other human as a secret by lying. I apologize for that dishonesty. Solis: ...That is all. Suvillan: Hmmm, this time you didn't lie even once! Suvillan: I knew I could trust you, Solis! Solis: ... Um. Solis: I'm honored. Corona: (...Remind me to slap Solis later.) Solis: ... Suvillan: You really are telling me that the annoying mosquito either got away safely, or is waiting to be killed right now. Suvillan: I already know that there's no way Kotori…

Corona: Lie directly through your teeth. Brag about your accomplishment.

05-Aug-2018

Corona: It went super DUPER well, your highness! Corona: I beat the living shit out of the human! Corona: Ooooh but, don't worry, I made sure not to kill them this time. Solis: Indeed, they're held up at a cell for now. Corona: We figured, y'know, we'd report back to your majesty first, before going ahead with any rituals or whatever. Corona: In conclusion, 10/10! A job well done. {}B) Suvillan: Oh, excellent report as usual, Corona! Suvillan: Really, it's all excellent except for the parts you didn't mention! Corona: T-the what? Suvillan: The parts that you didn't mention! Suvillan: I'm saying, the report was lacking. Suvillan: Perhaps you other two would have something to say about them? Solis: Uh, your highness, Kotori: YAAAAWN- Solis: Corona's report is mostly right,…

Suvillan: You're back! Suvillan: And together, too! Looking tight and orderly, how lovely. Suvillan: I shall be taking your bright faces as a good sign! Corona: (Okay, you two, shut up and stand to the side, I got this.) Solis: (You're way too relaxed.) Kotori: YAWN Solis: (And you're way too unprofessional.) Suvillan: So, how'd it go??

Aria: Start Jailbreak Adventure.

Uh. ... SURE? You have a feeling there's more meaning than just "Try escaping!" in this thought. Maybe a reference of some sort, perhaps it is one that you're not well-versed enough in certain literature to catch. Regardless! This is a terrible predicament but you can't let that put you down. You have to get out of here somehow, before it's too late. Aria: Examine the floorboards. Are any of them able to be broken? It doesn't seem so. You'd need some kind of tool to lodge anything out, and sadly your inventory seems to have been thoroughly emptied of everything. Speaking of the floorboards, have you mentioned that they're fucking disgusting? Areas of it are soaked with what you're pretty sure is dried bits of un-scrubbed blood. You find…

Corona: Human? What other human? Maybe if you deny it enough, it'll become true!

29-Jul-2018

Corona: What other human? This is the only human here!! Corona: Right, Kotori?? Kotori: U-uh! Kotori: Yeah? Corona: YEAH! Kotori: Yeah...!? Corona: MAN, what is Solis talking about! Solis: ... Corona: I DUNNO! Solis says so many words sometimes! Corona: B-but hypothetically, if there were more than one human, Corona: Wouldn't KOTORI know better? Kotori: Wait, WHAT? Kotori: How would I- Corona: I mean it's HER TOWN, y'know!! Corona: So that has absolutely nothing to do with me! Kotori: Why are you suddenly focusing on me so much? Kotori: And-- That, makes no sense! Kotori: There's... only one! You JUST said so! Everyone: Glance at that totally not suspicious crack in the ground. Solis: Corona is right. Corona: ...I am? Corona: I mean, I AM! Of course! Solis: You know,…

Corona: Actually kill the human now. She's not even moving! Easy target

25-Jul-2018

No. Look, you know you absolutely made it seem like the only thing you were here to do is absolutely pulverize every absolute fiber of the two humans, and you know you absolutely did it to the shouty brunet earlier, HOWEVER... You were absolutely absolutely not supposed to! You see, monsters have a very specific way of getting rid of humans. It involves a very contrived and pretty damn weird ritual, which you don't really know the process of since you've never participated in one. And you think your ignorance about it is very logical!! "Why would a winged take part in a monster's tradition?" ...That's more or less how you like to think, or how you felt was acceptable to think, until you made a very normal mistake: In…

Nino: Wake up.

21-Jul-2018

It looks like you can't be Nino right now. Aria: Grieve. It looks like you can't be her either. You can be the other girl, though. No, not any of the OTHER other girls, she's the one with the wings right here! In any case, you are now Corona. You've just finished an unexpectedly bothersome job.

[I]ntermission 1: begin.

Suvillan: Did you get all of that? Kotori: Um. Kotori: I... I think so? Suvillan: Are you KIDDING me, how is it still not clear. Kotori: Pardon me but... You use weird words. Suvillan: No, I use REASONABLE phrases, you uncultured swine! Suvillan: Sorry I called you an uncultured swine, I promise I love you despite your shortcomings, which are the only part I don't love about anyone. Corona: I mean it's obvious she'd be confused dude! Corona: I'd forget your royal lingo if I had to be surrounded by commoners every day. Suvillan: Now now, come on. Suvillan: It's a position she chose, don't demean her for that. Suvillan: Even though I offer her so many higher positions, sigh. Solis: Can you two stop getting sidetracked. Solis: Not all…

[C]hapter 1: conclude.

{S} Decimate.

Corona: Are we fuckin' done here, did you have all your needed lengthy tearful farewells yet?? Everyone: Enough yapping about friendship and heroic sacrifices. Corona: I'm getting tired! You'd better be aware of how rude it is to just ignore someone like me!! Nino: ...Right, this was happening. Aria: O-oh dear. Nino: if your intent is to buy time, you should probably keep her talking as long as possible. Mention the bet. Nino: So, I gathered you bet with someone on capturing us? Nino: Who could that be? Corona: None of your fuckin' business is who. Corona: Hmm, but this reminds me. Corona: We were never told there's more than one mosquito. Interesting.... Corona: I wonder if it's a mistake on someone's part, or if I should be assuming malicious…

Gullible Solis

Nino: Use STEALTH. Act like you surrender, wait for her to get close, then SUCKER PUNCH AND BOOK IT LIKE A LIBRARY?

09-Jul-2018

Aria: And even then, a fight with her is probably impossible to win. Corona: That's exactly right!! See, she knows what's up. I like that. Corona: Oh, and let me say, you better not think about pretending to surrender here. Corona: You wouldn't be the first ones to try and fail with that briiight trick on me!! Nino: (O-oh, so much for that idea...) Aria: ...Maybe there's still another way. Nino: You mean, besides fighting? Aria: Not quite, but it's better than outright giving up. Aria: Nino, you take Five and Ludwig and go. Aria: Beyond here should be a long path that extends to somewhere safer, way out of the forest. Nino: Wait, what? Nino: But what about you?? Aria: ...I'll stay back here and stall for time. Nino:…

Nino: Look up.

05-Jul-2018

Nino: ... Nino: Aria, Five, we have to get out of here. Aria: Huh? Five: :o ? Nino: I feel like- like something is coming. Nino: It's really bad, that's why I think we should just move! Aria: O-oh, wait! Aria: Nino, wait I said! Aria: You're being really vague, I don't understand! Aria: Can't you explain what you mean? Aria: Erm... that you feel "something"? Nino: Yes! Uh... Nino: I can't quite explain it, but... Nino: I feel like something, or someone, is approaching. Nino: A-anyway, the gist is that I have a really bad gut feeling! Nino: I might be entirely wrong, but just in case let's trust it! Nino: So hurry u- Corona: Descend Nino: DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOODGE Seems like you've already moved far enough to be safe from...…
