A couple of hours later, you arrive at your destination.

Get out and hold the boat steady for Cedric or else he is certainly going to fall out and get your shirt all wet.

It took all day to get to your sister's? Makes her sneaking over to your place, making off with your stuff as you slept, and then heading back kind of a bigger deal.

You're pretty sure Cedric isn't that clumsy. You tell him to get out of the boat and give you back your sweater. His shirt is probably dry by now.

Your sister has the privilege of riding in a carriage. You don't. Besides, if you wanted to go the shorter way, you'd have to go through town. And you're not really a fan of crowded places

>>461866
All right, good that we're back on shore. About how much further to your sister's house? If we're close enough to see, you may want to start watching for ratlike things. Better safe than sorry and all that.

A little sociopathic, aren't we? No wonder we talk to ourselves.

So what's the drawback to taking the scenic route, anyway? Besides, you know, it being longer.

Well, let's head off then. Make it to your sister's place quickly so we can be off. Just be careful, that voice seems pretty active lately.

>>461887
That not sociopathy, that's just introversion. Unless you count the black shouty voice telling her to kill people...

You're not a sociopath, at least when the voice is quiet. The voice isn't just some ugly mental personality you developed in your head. It's... a living being. It inhabits your thoughts, your mind.

You tie the boat to a tree, then change clothes with Cedric. After a few minutes of walking you spot your sister's home.

>"What's your sister like, Rella? I don't think you've ever really mentioned her."

You tell Cedric she's... nice, you guess. She's rather scatterbrained, though. She's also not someone you should really trust with anything, especially with personal belongings.

Hey, we're living beings too! Well, if you want to call what we're doing living. (I kid, I kid). But on the plus side: if that once voice is independent of you, that's sort of a good thing. A psychic attack is somewhat more reassuring than actually going crazy. ...even if that's what he's trying to do to you.

Let's go in and get your stuff back.

What's the plan, anyways? Are we staying the night? Or are you planning on rafting back in the dark? (Hopefully the return trip is downstream, since you were paddling before).

Let's just waltz right in.

>>461916
Or sharp objects, like your ruby knife... Though, you shouldn't really have that it at hand with that voice in your head either, so... Maybe have Cedric hold it for you while you're around your annoying sister, just in case.

Come to think of it, you never did mention why you came all the way out here to Cedric, did you? Tell him that your sister came out to your place and took your prized ruby knife, from its secret compartment, while you were asleep, and you're here to get it back.

knock knock.

Does your sister have a voice (or voices) in her head too? Does it tell her to do stupid things?

>>461918

We may be living beings, but we're not actually living inside her brain chewing on stuff. Lady needs a barnyard lobotomy, stat.

Well, if you're on generally good terms with her you should probably knock on the door. Also, yeah, don't try to hold anything dangerous like your knife, not with that voice acting up. Why do you like knives so much, anyway? That's an unusual hobby.

he was looking at your undies

Tell Cedric to stay here, he might get hurt.

Also GREAT quest so far OP, keep it up!

Are voices in your head usually this inquisitive? You've made it pretty clear you don't feel like explaining things, at least not right now.

As for the return trip, you planned to just take the boat back home downstream. You're not really intent on staying the night.

You knock on the door. Hopefully your sister is home so you can-

Looks like you found Brie.

>"What brings you here, sis?"

You briefly wonder if would be so bad to let the voice take over and kill your sister.

the voice is just your jealousy
you think killing her will make you more attractive by lack of comparison

you should instead channel that anger into drive to work out
sure you'll still be ugly, but at least you'll have your health.

you may also want to reconsider the whole no pants thing, your sister pulls it off better, and you wouldn't want people to think you're just copying her style.

It appears the pantsless sweater look is a thing.

>You briefly wonder if would be so bad to let the voice take over and kill your sister.
Well... she did steal your stuff, tackle you embarrassingly to the ground, and has the audacity to be both chestier and thinner than you...

I mean, no! Nononono. Can't let him win that easy.

>"What brings you here, sis?"
Your unannounced taking all my stuff last night.

Bah, if anything you should let us take you over, the worst that would happen is that you'll likely end up nude in the forest somewhere.

She's addressing your butt as opposed to your face.

Not.

Anyway, you tell your sister to give back your knife. You're not in the mood to play games, but of course your sister won't make it that easy.

Jealous of what, exactly? Some scatterbrained ditz??

You're mad because she stole something from you and she's being unhelpful in getting it back. You're starting to wonder if these so-called "good voices" are any help.

We kind of need a situation where help would be relevant. I mean, c'mon. This is a fairly tame domestic dispute over illicitly borrowed goods between siblings. Our only real options are to try to get you to go easy on her, or to egg you on.

Release her face and in a forced friendliness explain why she shouldn't take thing without asking, then get her to go collect the knife and give it to cedric..
That should get through her layers of stupidity.
try not to stab her when you get neer the knife though, that other voice seems a bit... malicious towards your sister and you.

stop pulling an Animatrix on your sister's skull. I mean she's your sister, for whatever that's worth.

you holding a knife now or ever, seems like a VERY bad idea

you should forget about knives in general, if you can't do that get her to mail it back to you

Well just go with it. Get off the ground, calm your sister down and ask if she can take you to the knife. Unless she lost or sold it or something.

Not exactly good voices either, we are neutral, we have our good and our bad.

However we will recommend that you calm down, you know where the knife is, ask for her to let you into her home and re-possess your item.

You let go of your sister's face and ask her if she can go grab your knife for you and give it to Cedric.

>"Okay! I know exactly where it is... but, you'll stay for a bit, right...?"

You tell her she's knows she can't do that. It's best you get going as soon as you get the knife.

She is just lonely...
Maybe she just wanted a bit more of your attention!

Wait, doesn't she owe you some books too? Your rare book was empty except for the note she left.

>stay for a bit
You know, if you actually spent some time with her, maybe she wouldn't have to do things like steal your most prized possession to get your attention. People often act out for a reason, you know.

Did she... move both of her eyes to one part? and what the hell, they are frigging mending.
Quick that's not your sister, that is some kind of shapeshifter in the form of your sister.

>>462176
Let your sister know that borrowing your shit without asking is disrespectful of you and your boundries and completely unacceptable. You're not even sure if you should just give her a visit like that, even if she's making that face to coerce you into staying, thanks to this whole situation. It's immoral, and completely wrong to do to family. And this whole manipulative puppy dog eyes shit is also unacceptable. Tell her to never do these things again to you, or else you'll just come back for your stuff and never talk to her again no matter her protests or attempts. She'd break a familial contract.
Let the confident chump know that his boner would be made quite flaccid real quick because you know how exactly to do that to a disrespectful male. Painfully. And Quickly.

>>462177
Can we stop what we have been doinG when what we were doinG wasn't catfightinG?

Well, it's clear that this guy may well be a worse douche than any of us. I'll give him a chance, but he's really made a bad first impression.
It's also becoming clear that you were being very literal that your sister's all the things you aren't. Especially in the mentality department. Slim and busty, yes, though you've definitly got a much better butt. Don't think Cedric hasn't noticed, either. I'm sure he got just as good of an eyefull as we did.
With her bustline and ditziness, I doubt this is the first douchebag she's attracted, either. I'm starting to suspect that's she's gotten into a bad relationship and has only you to help her get out of it. That being why she stole your ruby knife.
Anyway, analysis done. Give your sister a glare that's even parts "are you going to get around to introductions some time today?" and "You gotta be kidding me."

>>462182
It's just the light refracting through the sad.

As for the guy, ask who he is and what he thinks he's doing.

Does your sister know about the evil murder voice that sometimes tries to make you kill things?

Turn to your sister and calmly ask her who this douchebag is, and why you shouldn't tie his stupid over-long sweater arms around him like an impromptu strait-jacket and hang him the nearest tree by them for being such a douchebag.

Though, you probably already know he's yet another in her long line of douchebag boyfriends, which just happens to be another reason you don't come around here.

Jeeze, she's married? Didn't think you kids looked old enough for that.

All the same, try to put a good face on things and tolerate him. You've got nothing to gain by engaging him, and we only stuck around to try and improve relations with your sister. (Also, no need to give evil murder-voice any more ammunition).

Husband? Oh, crap. Another way in which Brie is unlike you. Poor taste in men.
What was that about him leaving out some poison? There aren't many legitimate professions to be having poison around, are there? I guess I'm just being paranoid again, but it still seems like the knife theft was a call for help.

>>462563
Huh. I wonder why she married him. Well, out of your very limited respect for your sister, try not to push his face in while you're here.

Tell him you're here for your knife and he should probably let you in so that you can get it and leave as fast as possible.

How about taking the wind out of his macho douchebag sails.

Sarcastically say "yeah, and you total missed it," while pushing past him into the house. Ruffle his hair on the way in, for good measure.

If he's afraid of you for the totally legitimate reason that you might snap and kill him, it will keep him from bothering you while at the same time avoiding yourself getting executed for murder.

Shut the heck up, evil headvoice! You are outvoted, and out-classed!
Rella, ignore "Deathurge" over there, but keep glaring and grinning at Manchester like that. Don't say anything, just let the thoughts of what you *could* do run through your mind.

I support hugs

Collapse into a hug weeping and say it almost made you kill her husband.

Well you can tell her that you have slightly neutral voices to help balance out The Voice, seeing as we've prevented it from harming others or..you three times now.

She wants to help you. Let her speak. I know this is an uncomfortable subject, but shutting her out like this won't do either of you any good.

Before I go jumping to conclusions again...what exactly do you do with it, that has her so worried?
While you're filling us in, I also support hugs. Tell her you're mostly keeping it because it's valuable to you.
I would advise against revealing the rest of us exist, even if to point out that we're--mostly--countering Shoutyface McDeathurge over there.

Please tell me she doesn't use the knife to ritually cut into her neck and that's why she doesn't remove the scarf.

Moz, your sister wants to help you, in her own ditzy way. Talk with her, okay.

But first, give her a tight hug. She looks like the hugging type, and you two haven't hugged in ages.

As for what you do with the knife, you can't say right now, but it doesn't have anything to do with your scarf.

>>463434
Do you sacrifice tiny animals in order to appease the voice's bloodlust? Well, regardless, it's time to get the knife. Have your sister retrieve it and give it to the guy following you around like a lost puppy.

Happiness! Nice to see you getting along with her after the rocky start.

Now doesn't this feel good? You should half-hug your sister more often, and work up to whole hugs. She likes it when you're not all surly and stuff.

Maybe you could stay for awhile and talk, as long as Manchester isn't around; He could go into town to the pub or something. At the least, tell Brie she's welcome to come to your place to visit anytime she wants. She can make the trip easier than you, since she can stand going through town.

Oh, and whatever you do, don't forget to get the knife handed off to Cedric.

Speaking of Cedric, take a quick look around and see what he's up to. Just make sure he isn't blundering into trouble or being corrupted by Manchester. After that, how about a quick look at your sister's place? We have a very limited POV that centers on you. We haven't seen it, yet!

>it doesn't have anything to do with your scarf
Oh thank gods. My mind went right to the bad place, but I'm glad I was wrong.

Typical. People always flock to your sister's... assets.

...Oh.

You snap your fingers to get his attention, but he keeps stuttering like an idiot.

Bop him, lightly. If that doesn't work, just drag him inside and dump him somewhere till he recovers.

haha, guess when you were leaning over slightly to talk to shorty you must of been sticking your butt out a bit.

>>463572

Pull your sweater down, your underwears are showing.

This is the inherent danger of not wearing pants in public with a body like yours.

make mental note to buy a longer sweater

Oh, Cedric. What are we going to do with you? He really likes you.

>>463586
Alternatively, not. This sounds like a very effective way to subdue people when you are in a vulnerable position. Or at least him.

>>463580
That or he got an eyeful when her sister tossed her upside down, if you didn't notice that.

>>463572
Tell him you're going to leave without him if he doesn't snap out of it.

Jeez, he's still reeling from when your sister knocked you over. Grab his shoulder and give him a shake.

Well, it's clear that Cedric is a butt man. You really shouldn't blame him for liking a good one when he sees it, even though this is a little much. He seems to be lost in the visual memory of your bottom, and is flipping out over the sight. Take off his glasses and cover his eyes entirely, then start repeating his name. This might get him to reboot his brain.

Grab his nose.

>>463742

honk.

yeah? what about it?

>>463795
ask him to describe it for you

>>463793
Grab his nose and give it a gentle "honk honk"

Yes, just slip him a little tongue to get him to snap out of the love-stupor he went into after briefly seeing our butt. That will definitely help. That said, what do we have to lose?

Kissing Cedric isn't a very helpful way to stop him from liking you.

You get his attention and drag him to Brie's home.

>"Ow, ow! Okay, okay, I'm sorry! I'm sorry!"

Oh, let him go. He can't really help it, and it's kind of your own fault for choosing to dress pantsless.

Well that's certainly one way of snapping him out of it, keep a hold on him till you enter the home then let him go.

You enter the foyer. It's... pleasant, you guess.

Brie tells you all to go into the living area while she goes to get your knife. You remind her that when she gets back that she should give it to Cedric for the time being.

He would plaster his ugly, douchey mug all over everything..

Find somewhere to sit, if there's no chairs the floor at least seems comfortable.

Give Manchester a "Really?" look, but don't say anything. What does your sister see in him, anyways? Move on to the room she directed you to.

As tacky and dumb as you think Manchester's taste in decor is, you're not really in a position to complain since it's not your house.

As for how Brie even ended up with him, it's a pretty simple story. Your sister's always been the romantic type; always ready to go with the first man she assumes will treat her right. From what you've seen, Manchester does seem to provide for her, so he at least does that right.

Manchester motions for you to sit, but you prefer to stand. He shrugs.

You tell him it's not important. But they can't be an item.

>>464099
It IS important though. You're a danger to those around you.

he wont accept that you an dangerous for no reason.

Simply say that you are a constantly frustrated and stressed out individual. You are the type to lash out. Which is why you live alone, so you don't lash out at people.

It's simple and it gets the point across. And remind Cedric that he doesn't really know you that well, so it's obvious that he so far just likes you for your buns, which he can find somewhere else. And if he likes abrasive tough chicks, he can find another too, one without a lashing problem.
You have anger issues and you like making that issue go away by avoiding people. That way it never becomes a problem. See the logic, Cedric?

just tell him there's some shit going on in your life that makes you unable to date people safely.

now where's that beer?

Tell him you only date people who can beat you in a fight.

Erm. Nothing. You hope your sister gets that knife soon.

No! If Shouty is for it, that makes it a bad idea! GET OUT OF HER HEAD ALREADY, YOU SQUATTER. SEE, WE CAN DO SHOUTY BLANKNESS TOO. FUCK OFF, WANNABE.

Cedric, don't listen to Rella when she's speaking in that creepy tone of voice, or her eyes go white!

Make Manc drink it first. If he refuses, ask him why.

they didn't hear what you said so you can just say you said don't drink it. if they ask why say your fairly certain drinking rats that were poisend would be a bad idea

I can see why you normally stay away from people. Ask why he would expect someone to drink something with rats in it. That seems kind of disgusting and unhygienic.

Yes, tell them that you obviously said not to drink it.

I think it may be best that we tell Cedric about all your voices, but maybe when you two are alone.

Advise him its best to avoid drinks with dead rodent parts in them.

Um, didn't your sister say she'd poisoned the rats? Therefore the rat bits in there are likely not exactly suitable for consumption. I'd recommend saying something along the lines of, "Aren't those the same rats Brie poisoned?" before innocent Cedric takes a drink.
--exactly the same way Shoutybutt wants him to.
Then fix Manchester with another glare and ask testily, "Was that an innocent mistake, or are you in the habit of poisoning guests?"

If Cedric looks to be about to take a swig, stick your hand over his mug.

Say you said "don't drink it." Then add that not only are rat bits in the beer unhygienic, Brie mentioned that she put down rat poison for them. Do all this while giving Manchester such a Look, even he'll flinch.

Great your monster voice is getting sneaky. How are you supposed to say anything if it's just going to jump in at the last minute and inject something murderous?

Don't let him drink it. It's poisoned.

If the voice is taking over your speaking ability in an attempt to kill the poor guy, then use your limbs to keep him from drinking it.

Is that a power suit? This quest just got 10x more awesomer.

Equip the knife. Assume a defensive position, and yank Brie behind you. Yell at Cedric to run, I doubt Manchester needs to be told to do this. Shout to Her, "Take him and go!"
I doubt this will actually work, as it seems this is someone with a grudge or vendetta against you.
Priorities:
1. Get out alive.
2. Get Brie out alive.
3. Get Cedric out alive.

Oh, and draw that knife. Is she attached to that bandanna, how fast is she, how hard would it be to cut the tendons in her legs and then her arms, etc.

Okay, let's get the basics down, Rella.

First up- you can fight, yeah? You got experience here? Follow up to that- what are your strengths? We're going to need to play to them to win.

What's Bonzi's beef with you? What's the history here?

Bonzi kinda hates your guts because of something that happened six years ago. But that's not important now.

Right now you need to figure out how to get to your KNIFE so you can fight her off and protect Brie and Cedric.

Your RUBY KNIFE should be pretty effective if you're fast enough. Just have to make sure you don't get hit, and to lead her away from the house.

Alright, get to it. Duck and weave, girl. Get that knife. We'll cheer you on, and shout out warnings and advice if we see a reason. Good luck!

Yep, this.

You can't stand up, can you.

>>464893

Distract her with the old two-headed duck routine? Or is she not that dumb?

throw manchester at her as a distraction.

All right. Time to think tactically. She's immensely strong, but bulky. She can't be that fast. Counter with speed of your own, as you've said. Teamwork will work, if you can distract her. Try calling to Bonzi "If you chase me, Manchester will get away!" and circle around through...whatever room you're in to the room you were in, and get the ruby knife. A yell of, "Brie! Cedric! Run! She's not after you!" will probably help get them out of danger.

>>464907

second.

First things first, get on your feet, and out of this room any other way then the hole you came through.

Now, can you roughly guess if Bonzi will come for you over Manchester? 'Cause if she will, you've got to play keep-away until him, Brie and Cedric get out of the house.

Grab a handful of that pile of plaster dust and rubble. You can throw that into Bonzi's eyes if she gets too close.

The final destination for all of you should be your boat, if you'll all fit. Get out over open water, and Bonzi will have to swim to get to you, which will slow her down. If you all won't fit, have Cedric head back to your place through town, along with Brie.

>>464893
> protect Brie and Cedric.

Do you have reason to expect they're in danger from her? She's here on business, not to just create random chaos. Hell, she might even rather not fight you at all, and just be left to collect her debt.

>>465154
Brie, as Manchester's wife, could be in danger of kidnapping, as an incentive for him to cough up the cash. Cedric should be safe, though.

>"But it's been six years! That voice HAS to be gone by now!"
>Bonzi kinda hates your guts because of something that happened six years ago.

Whatever happened six years ago must have been a heck of a thing. Peek out of the hole very carefully. Is this ruby knife anything special aside from its ornateness, or did your sister take it over a regular knife for the sole purpose of bringing you over?

You don't know what Bonzi will do, and it's best not to find out. You need to get the others out of here, and maybe if you get out of this alive, tear Manchester a new one.

Your KNIFE won't actually cut very deep through Bonzi's skin; her skin's rather tough, but you should be able to get some damage in. You're not really sure what the story on the bandanna is.
