listen, quick. i am speaking directly into your eye socket. you have your priorities all wrong. you need to be POSTING.

you likely have 10 minutes (nine and some change, now) to live, if you do not update your blog in that time no one will be able to consume this extraordinarily unfortunate circumstance you've found yourself in. think of your duty as a cultivator. think of the CONTENT.

Hell, I'm pretty sure half of us thought death beacon might be some kind of quick revive system in case we fuck up.

We are dicks though, no argument there.

Anyhow, game plan! I think your biggest best bet is to bug the fuck out of here. Don't go to relatives or friends, your online behavior is easily tracked. Instead, I suggest going somewhere moderately temperate on a stolen motorbike taking as many backroads as you can. Do not bring your phone, if you need to update the blog do it from library computers.

On the phone note: get out paper, write down the contacts of your friends, and throw that massive tracking beacon away or you WILL die for it. Keep your contacts and use public phones.

What kind of money and supplies do you have access to?

Say did we get your pronouns yet btw? My not-teeth are itching in a way that makes me think that's something we should've asked by now

>Options for solo entertainment during a dull day of work
Nothing better to do than edge herself while looking at porn! That desperate, brainless, horniness isn’t going to manifest itself.

Jess finds a nice big wand vibrator to set on her ergonomic chair and grind her clit against while she surfs the web. There’s this really good conditioning kink fic that she likes to revisit from time to time, sadly she doesn’t think it’d be feasible to try being a mindbroken sex slave in real life since they both have to work. Ooo, or she could see how the amateur porn they filmed and posted a month ago is doing, reading the comments and watching other non-professional stuff always gets her going. It could also be a classic guro day, but then she might get so turned on she cums.

What will Jess focus on?
A. Conditioning/hypnotism erotica
B. Amateur porn videos
C. Blood and guts, fictional depictions or otherwise

A
Imagine your big bad wolf husband coming home to his favorite little sleeve, right where he left you. Ready and waiting. When he says the magic words..

C) Overly complex animation movies about science experiments made of huge globules of guts and viscera forming into naked big-boobied wolfen warriors called Boobans.
The developer is both a genius and an outcast.

A) Wouldn't it be nice to condition Henry, make him more into however you really want to present yourself?

A. Sound like a good option to get in the mood.

Didn't the cat ask for a binding, Casey? Stop gawking at the boys, and get to wrapping each other up like Christmas presents already.

What would extended angel wings feel like, anyway? Soft or rubbery?

Casey pulls back and un-straddles Clio, “Okay, kitten, that’s enough of a warm up. How about we get started?”

“Kitten?” Clio rolls her eyes and sits up. “We gotta work on that pet name.” Her tail flicks in anticipation and she asks, “How are we doing this?”

“Hmmm, there’s all kinds of positions I’ve never been able to try, until now. How about this?” She makes the cat stand and fold her arms behind her back. “Let me know if it’s uncomfortable, okay?”

The Binder extends her aura and it snakes towards Clio. Unlike it’s usual fluid, amorphous tendrils, it forms thin, rope-like strands that wrap around the Cat’s limbs and torso in a complex net.

Clio gasps as she feels herself lifted slowly, until she’s suspended several inches off the ground. “W-woah! Oh-okay!”

“Mmm, yeah. One more touch.” Casey wraps a couple of bindings around her partner’s ankles and reels them in, until Clio’s legs are spread and displayed. She steps back to admire her handy-work, enjoying every angle of the trussed up cat. “Hmm yeah, that’ll do nicely. How’s that feel?”

Clio looks at her over her shoulder, blushing as she spins slowly in the air and put on full display. “Ah! Feels revealing! I’m, heh, not used to being tied up, honestly.”

“I’ll bet.” Casey says, stepping up behind her. Her hand grabs the Sender’s arms and pulls until she’s lined up properly. “Remember when we first met and I tried binding you with my shackle?”

“No one had ever managed to catch me before.” Clio lets her gaze wander, feeling the blunt tip of Casey’s shaft rub against her thigh. “I was so used to feeling untouchable, it really gave me a shock.”

Casey bumps her shaft against Clio’s folds a few times, trying to slip inside, before taking hold and guiding it in herself. “Well, to be fair, I wasn’t used to having someone be able to break through my bindings. I knew you were someone really special, right then.” Her hips bump flush with the Sender’s backside as she feels the warmth of pussy completely envelop her shaft. “Fu-ck, that feels good.”

B. Like I said, this is likely why Wormworks turned him gold, to hide Abdle from Iron Dredge. So we gotta pretend hes not here.
Tell him the best thing about having two people ruling a kingdom is that one person can take care of business in one place, while the other can take care of other business in another place. But you do apologize that he couldnt be here today. So much to do, so little time.

This will make you appear responsible hardworking royals to Heartbeat and the leaf leader

Alternatively, another idea could be D: tell him you won't answer his question about the demon apple until he answers your question he refused to answer. You are not giving answers willy-nilly that easily.

he did mention not wanting to answer our question to give us ammo against him, so it must be too important to not let us know.

Of course, we still won't let him know the truth that Abdle is with us. Instead, we can just tell him where the decoy is located at.

"One for one? We each have a question so we take turns." Give one of Will's responses.

A fair exchange would be the best way to learn a little bit about him while answering his questions.

I think once they realized it was a double, they stopped pushing, because there wasn't any point to the act any longer.

Right now we should probably consider ourselves nearly compromised. While there's no certain knowledge of where Ellie/Pillet (as our former alias) disappeared to, there is a certain newcomer grabbed up by PICK, the very group keenly interested in these developments.

We may need to extract, [i]with[/] Pesh and Tesh, simply because they're the only outside individuals who know the truth.

>"Do you know when, exactly, Gel died?"
"Uhhh no, like... someone was using energy to cremate him. We're doing analysis to be absolutely sure it's him, but I think we interrupted someone trying to destroy his body. We're doubting Gel was the one Paporron spoke to. Tegge is saying you're supposed to be the only memory artificer in the whole wide galaxy, which I don't know if that was literal but, you know."

There are a few explanations I could think of, but they all require a lot of leaps in logic or simple presumptions about what people's motives and thought patterns are like. Paporron lying to cover for me for some reason, or Shuzenza having access to a second memory artificer I wasn't aware of... it's all possible, but unlikely.

The third option is what I'm fearing, and because of that, it's the one I'm stuck on. Someone took Gel's place who looked like Pillet, had a soul that Paporron said was Pillet's, and was able to pass a memory artificing test that Paporron did not seem to be in charge of.

It's too early to be sure, but I must consider that the reports on my sister's death could be false. I will take what few precautions I can for it, but for now, I will hold back both my hope that she is alive and well, and my fears about what that means.

"You two look very tired, too. Can I see your phone?"

I take her phone as well as Tesh', then place them into a decorative breadbox across the room.

"I think we need to go." I whisper to the twin's expectant ears. "You two might have been bugged after all."
>"At least one of us makes sense, but we checked ourself pretty thoroughly! Are you sure it's not you that got bugged?" Pesh whispers back. "Or waffle lover over there?"
"I can't vouch for him, and I doubt it's me. But please understand that if you two were bugged, it's possible it was using tech that you two don't have the means to detect. Maybe I should leave my phone behind, too. Can you two put your phones in faraday cages?"
>"Do you space aliens just carry faraday cages around wherever you go?"
"No, I suppose not. Can you leave your phones behind, then?"

They share a couple uncomfortable glances, and Tesh fails to speak. She makes sign language at Pesh, who translates.

You need to have them help you get back to Paporron. Then pop your change back thing to get back to looking like Pillet. And then replace whoever is currently Pillet with yourself Pillet. Especially if it is Pillet being Pillet.

Also find time to make out with other Pillet at some point during the process.

Oh, I just felt something. Is that you, Muni? I was wondering why you've been so quiet. It's been about a week since we last spoke. A lot has happened since then, and we've been quite busy.
The farm you suggested, while not finished, is in a state where we've started to plant seeds in the finished plots; the approximate yield won't be something that we could trade with at the moment, but enough for emergencies. We've got a fundamental outhouse setup with a pit for ease of dung collection, which Kent has surprisingly taken care of despite it's stench. and a storage area doubling as beds for the freed people. The construction of individual huts or homes and furniture is still underway. It's enough progress that we can allow ourselves a little rest in between and nearing the end of the gruelling work hours.
I've never worked this hard before, and my physical body feels the same.

As for the freed people, besides work talk, I've not had much time to get to know them individually; I'm currently taking a break as I don't think I can push myself anymore. Getting to know the freed people would be friendly. The children have been helping with our jobs, but we've been allowing them time to play and be kids, and we're not at the point where we need extensive child labour.

I asked Kent and Aludem :Auldem_normal_noanims:
if they were spying on us, telling them why I wasn't accusing them of wrongdoing and how those skills could be helpful in the future.
Kent said nothing, his stomach mostly grumbling. Meanwhile, Aludem took all the credit and loudly boasted about his accomplishments and past accomplishments; Auldem has been loudly complaining while helping us with work, begging and moaning to know when we'll send somebody or something to go on an adventure or even a supply run.

Trick, Kent, and Baredibor :baredibor_normal_noanims:
have been taking rounds hunting, and Bardeibor's been warming up to them, Trick I understand, but when I asked why Kent he just responded. :baredibor_happy_anims: "He's Pretty Strong, and he can eat an deer in one bite." I don't know what my response should be to that.

That's totally uncool man! You know how I'm angry to suggest something that'd piss her off as well! And don't you be thinking about trying to kill me as well! We fairies are powerful, and I also graduated with a master's degree in Fairy education, fair dealing, and how to make someone Embarrassed and naked at any time in history. At Fey Fairy University! I take my job seriously, man, unlike some other fairies...

Ahem, that was unprofessional, dudes; she just pissed me off SO much, so whatcha going to do?

Hey Derklord, you should tell all the plantlife that they're naked, and you're actually more dressed than they are! That should shut them up and cause some ENP (embarrassed nude plants)

I want the clothes losing to be slow progressing in the span of multiple panels and/or updates, instead of losing it all at once in one panel, its more lewd that way

A few ideas, you don't have to use all or any of them, just pick the ones that feel is most fun: to start, it maybe at some point, it begins to rain just a little, causing the pillowsheet to become transparent once it's done raining.

a few small wild moths needs someplace to hide, and asks Derklord to hide in her dress (it doesn't care about her being underdressed cause they're wild moths, they're naked too after all)
In reality, the moths is just very very hungry, and will slowly eat away at the pillowsheet without Derklord knowing

There also needs to be risks on being seen. Maybe a couple of lumberjacks in the woods working (one beaver, one termite). Derklord needs to figure out a way to sneak past them without alerting them, while trying to make sure her pillowsheet doesn't somehow get damaged from bad luck.

maybe a fisherman Derklord has to figure out how to sneak by at a lake

I encourage other suggestors to come up with some fun ideas

Calm down fairy, we all have the same goal; To get Derk out of the woods (and back somewhere populated where its possible to be ENFed)

I mean who's gonna see her out here? Wolves? You think a bunch of wolves are just gonna come chase her up a tree so anyone below can see her legs? Yeah right.

Loose thread on pillow case, it starts to slowly unravel from the bottom. Eventually she can realize and break it off, but hopefully bottom half is exposed before then.

They'd probably look good in a monochrome asymmetrical one piece dress.
Maybe a patterned outfit with a mix of light and dark shades. A toga would work well too.

Also you're right, this whole mind thing seems completely unlike what we've done before. Nothing about our abilities have ever had any subtle effect, especially on the mind, which is why I feel a good portion of what you're feeling is really you.
Trust me, when we exert our influence it's pretty obvious, you'll typically blank out for a while when following a command, as far as I'm aware it's the same thing we could do to those who hold us for long enough, but allows it at a distance, kind of like what happened with Sergei when we first met him. So it must be some quirk of his rather than ours.
Seriously though, the things we made Venian Makag do with that power...
Well, we're a bit more careful with it now of course, nobody wants a puppet emperor.
Ah, don't tell Sergei we forced Venian Makag to do kinkplay though, it'd hurt his national pride.

Silently glaring, they stalk towards you, spray whipping from shaggy fur. The closer one staggers forward and thrusts a rusty polearm at you.

Dodge! Tell them to stay back, you're hallucinating!

Put your sword away.

Maybe even the guard is a hallucination but still try to avoid it's attack if you can. All of this is fucking weird, like some apocalyptic premonition. Is this how the world is outside? Does the giant thing seem familiar to you? I have a feeling, that all of this has a more significant meaning to you personally.

Your mind cannot be trusted right now. This is as likely a vision of friend as of foe; but if you announce your condition, a foe will not retaliate, and a friend might show mercy. Let it be known that you're not in your right mind, and take care to avoid harm without harming anyone else, or yourself, to the degree that you can.

We are stuck with the party pooper.
I can understand bein detached from consequences and therefor feeling indifference to the consequences of ones' own actions, but he really knows how to ruin the mood. Although if this place is meant to kill things like him and our host I guess he is not as free from consequences as we are.
The best we can do is try to ignore him.

The important part: Roderick didn't die on top of the circle and the box wasn't on his hand.
There is too much uncertainty here. I'm not sure what the best course of action is but I don't believe it will be beneficial to let this ritual follow it's course.
Drag his body and the box away from the circle towards the door. After that take his cape and use it to wrap around the box. It probable won't help but doesn't hurt to try.

Later when you rejoin the two the proposed arrangement should be that Evel’yee can't stay in the same room as the box. You and Mina shall watch over it in turn.

I know this wasn't the result you wanted, but remember: they were never the priority. Earlier I told you to kill them. You wanted to prevent their deaths out of your own volition and with the exception of one you succeeded. No reframing can take away the fact that you tried your best to help strangers. This is who you are.

As for the winking, feel free to take it as meant for you. After all, if I get any progress on that front you will be the one enjoying the benefits.

As for the song... I can give it a shot. Please forgive my lack of talent:

I think that past was brought up in ways that can never be considered normal. You were rewarded for murder. You still are.
But you still know it's not right. Hold onto that feeling and find out why you were taught to think up was down. There are a few situations where the individual observer is insane - but far, far fewer where the rest of the world is actually perfect.

Make sure the demon can't zombify Roderick's corpse.

I sing like a wounded seagull, but for you slinky?
I'll squawk along.

"Along the shore the cloud waves break,"
"A spectral shroud where silence wakes."
I like this.

We're with you tanna.
At your side and against the dark.
If you are sure its time to pick up that damned box...
if youve got something in mind...
You have my trust too.

Lets... keep singing for now.
"The tide rolls in with whispered song,"
"It's rhythm steady, deep, and strong."

Might be time to go for the kill, assuming you can avoid getting shot while doing so.

>>1099559
Yes.
Complete operation disarmament and then get a distance to breathe.
Maybe see if you can spy a leg vulnerability while you recover

FINISH HIM

You can't slow down, or stop, or hesitate. The only thing keeping you alive is the next swing of that mace keeping the damned machine off balance.

That's ok, because you love thrashing it to bits, the only ounce of joy you can remember right now is how good it felt feeling that things ankle crunch.

I'm betting it'd feel amazing to see it's head crunch and turn into a pile of splintered circuitry. That would probably heal all the wounds and make things seem positively rosy again. Just don't slow down, for even a second.

>>1099883
Use club.
Help Greta out.

Gretta isn't dying, she can wait. deal with the threat with the police club, and charge at him with fury

Well he has the high ground. Help Gretta while he comes to you. be ready with the club.

Today just keeps ramping up.
Look for keys, unlock the police car's trunk, grab guns and threaten cultist.

Load the guns when they bolt.

Throw a glass shard like a shuriken! Woo!

Radio: Ah room 636, miiister...
Didn't give us a name

Anyways, i just sent someone over to check, they'll be there shortly.

The device goes silent, as you turn to look to Enesen, he looks ectastic

>>1099615
Nah I'll do it.
Hey. You wouldn't happen to want to give me that thing would ya? In the off-chance it's not someone who's looking to help. Only thing I have is this fork.

Easy with the knife there, don't start a fight you can't win. Have him stay here while you scout ahead.

Keep that knife steady. We don't know if they're hostile yet or not. Push comes to shove, you can surprise them with ambush should our scouting efforts find danger.

Better living and Marital guidance through texas holdem?
No, julianne,
stop.
No more weird books.
Weve got insectoid horrors to evade.

Dalvari doesn't see any cloth around, she'd have to use part of her outfit if she wanted to muffle sound under the book case.

she glances at Lord Xielphiane book collection again
"Better living and Marital guidance through Setax holdem?"

she wonders how she ever came to work for such a strange man

Continue through the passage and read the book on magic if there’s enough light.

>>1099067
An apron can be sacrificed while protecting your dignity.
That is an apron shes wearing or is it a smaller pinny?
It might be enough...

Your masters eclectic collecting is a mystery for another time, unless theres a copy of "harroctar obedience academy: 30 tricks to teach your new nightmarish horror." Sitting on the shelf. Im not even sure you can get that anymore either.

Unless any of those books have any practical aplications right this moment, leave them. It's not them these creatures are after.

Follow down the tunnel and close the passage behind you. If anyone still alive knows about it they'll be able to open it.

Keep moving, but rest when you need to.

BLU double down on Wub

sorry rad yolkies, you'll have to split the toxic waste we have

Oh right we know the dinodata does *something* when applied directly to a repteka, so let's apply some to ROCKS to see if that heals his severe damage.

Need to get back to NEW HOME so you can make it safe from the RAD AMOEBAs. Doing that with DIIRA and BIG RAD YOLKIE will be hard, but what else can you do?

Ah, I just realized there's one option we've been ignoring. We can send Reptekas out to go get things. Not just raw resources though, we can go fetch stuff from our base(s)! We can, for instance, fetch enough materials to repair the CART, which should allow us to transport the giant Rad Yolky.

Alternatively;
BLU go back with the radyolkies and fetch TOXIC WASTE for travel rations, and let the radyolkies eat waste at the site so they get bigger, which would let us travel faster and also fight the radmoebas better. And while that would potentially result in creating more giant immobile radyolkies down the road, what's more important is that we survive the trip back home.
ROCKS rest.
