>How this works.
Suggest an action and then depending how feasible it is, the spider will act.

You are just an ordinary spider in moder day earth. You have no special powers, other than your intellect.

Making silk costs proteins, which you can restore by eating. Your mate has his own protein reserves. You both have currently 100% if your reserves.

You can upgrade your nest with silk.Your nest currently has the following improvements:
>Small rudimentary web nest:
>Storage chamber
-30 units of food, 2 chitin plates, 3 metal shards, 1 chitin armor.
>8 slingshots.
>Trap webs near the base of the tree.
>Aphid pen.
-5 aphids.
>Warning web at the entrance to the tree hole and warning lines.
>Drop down net attached to the ceiling at the entrance.

Your current skills:
>Efficient web architecture.
-The protein cost of your silk structures is reduced by 5 units. Structures costing 5 units will still cost 1 unit.

You also need to feed your family.
Your siblings, brood and Isaac combined require 15 units of food per day. They are fed for this day however. You and Dorpou require 4 units of food combined.

You are currently just returning from your test-fly with Kahless. Dorpou is at the entrance of your nest, Andor is guarding the aphids, Bubbles is chilling at the water pond and Ranou is building something.
What do will you do next?

No-one interested in spider questing?

>>18528205
A moment to catch up, please. Usually your thread's almost over by the time I'm up.

just taking it all in.

>>18528219

I made this rather late today, due to having some other things that needed my attention.
No hurries.

>>18528137
Thank Kahless for the ride. Smile at Dorpou. Check out what Ranou's building.

I suppose I'd talk to Ranou about the Bees. I'd ask what he knows of their culture, and what he thinks of our attempt at diplomacy.

After thanking Kahless for the ride, you aproach Ranou and ask him what he is building.

"Oh, this?
This is the prototype of the bird thing you wanted to make so it could scare off any invaders. I need to figure out how to make it in small scale before trying to make it big."

You also ask about bees and their habits and culture.
"The bees leave others alone, as long as the other don't bother them. They are also extremely fond of sweet substances, like nectar. You could even say that they are addicted to it."

(Sorry if the spiders look crappy, it has been some time since I last drew them, so I need some time to get warmed up again)

Addicted? So we just handed them a finite supply of bee crack? Hrm...

The bird thing seems to be coming along nicely, is there anything I can do to help?

>>18528333

You ask if you can help.
"Well...I cant really think how you could be of assistance right now. I mean no offense, but when it comes to web making, your skills are quite...hmmm..lets just say insufficient for this complex task. You might be able to come up with this kind of complex idea, but I am quite sure that you lack the practical knowledge needed in order to make it happen.
So no, I don't think you can help me right now. I'll report back to you when this prototype is ready. I need to solve many weight related problems with it before even hoping to make this any larger."

>>18528384
"Well, let me know if you need anything."

Could I see your map image, please?

>>18528384
Oh. Well...I'll just go check on the brood, then.

>>18528403

"I will."

You recall your mental "map" of the surroundings.

>>18528427
Let's make a web harness that will help Kahless or Andor transport cargo.

Go check out the flowerbed?

>>18528425

Everything seems to be in order...
>>18528445
You make a mental note to get on it. It is an easy task.
>>18528461
Oh, hello Evo Friend!
You make a mental note of doing that too.
I assume that you mean the flower beds outside our nest, could you specify which one?

Our web building skills are what? Fine. LET'S GO HUNT SOMETHING. STALK MAIM KILL.

>>18528548

Well, you aren't exactly a web spinning spider...
Are you sure you want to go for a hunt, seeing that you and Andor just returned from one?

Have we been to the garden/farm thing? It's to the right of the shed, surrounded by berry .. uh .. bushes?

There's a flower bed there.

Construct the harness, then take Kahless out to investigate the flowers by the shed.

>>18528559

Yeah but that was for Andor's sake. We were just chillin' with him.

Hey, I've got an idea, does Bubbles hunt? How's she gain sustenance? Aside from accosting random spiders and killstealing?

>>18528579

Bubbles drinks nectar.

Didn't we want to expand the aphid pen?

Yes you did.

>>18528623
We should get to it then.
Also are the bee higher ups still tripping?

Just wanna mention for everyone's benefit. The ants are another potential problem that's been mostly a pushover since we're the one's doing all the ambushing. But that's what we do best, right?

They were fighting with the wasps most recently. Maybe check out the battlefield? Os just do some spying on them? What were they fighting over?

You construct the harness.
"Am I supposed to wear that thing?" Andor asks rather sceptically.
>>18528637
Tripping? What tripping? You don't know anything about any tripping.

You remind yourself to tell Dorpou to expand the aphid pen. The man should do some work too! You have more important stuff to do!
Like this:
>>18528652
You make a mental note (again) to check on it while you investigate the flower beds.

Am now picturing Andor in bsdbesque combat webbing harness. "It's so you baby!" OK, maybe Kahless.

Scrap the harness thing for now. Andor can carry tons as it is.

Flowerbed expolorin' ho!

>>18528738

You admit that the harness might need little more R&D time.
You tell Andor that you shall now go exploring again. You quickly yell Dorpou to get his lazy but to work on the pen, and then you climb on Andor's back.

"Hold on to your abdomen little lady! Because I am taking off!"

We know what type of vegetables are in the zone? Like cucumbers, tomatoes and the like? Alas a bit of info of our belongings and the like can be cool, to know what can we do.

( Aurrgh! Gotta run for a bit. Keep it rolling guys! AND FIND SOMETHING TO KILL. Then befriend it. Whatever, you know the routine. )

You are now hovering over the area where the ants and wasps battled. They are gone now, shall you investigate?

>>18528827
Of course, perhaps some wonded bug it's in the area, and we can get something from it!

>>18528833

Lots of dead bugs alright.
Although one wasp seems to be still struggling to free herself from a dead ants grip.

>>18528901
First, check to make sure this is not a trap. We could be ambushed.

Second, help the wasp.

>>18528917
Well, not so fast, first talk with the wasp, then plan how to transport all this sweet meat to our base.

Alas what the fuck it's the yellow substance from the corpses? Biological weapons?

>>18528917
>>18528924

You approach the wasp.
It is clearly agitated.
"Shzz! What are you looking at you wingless ssscumbagzzz!"

>>18528952
It is sticky and smells sweet.

>>18529007
>wingless ssscumbagzzz!

...Andor has wings. I'll chalk that up to trauma.

"I'm looking at an insect in need."

>>18529015

"Don't make me laugh! Your fat friend'z flight is an embarrasssment to all of usss flyerssz!
And I don't neeed your hep! I am doing FINE!"

Andor is somewhat angered by this wasp's rude comments.

>>18529045
"If you call yourself a flyer, you should be able to fly. What are you still doing on the ground?"

"Finish him!"

>>18529045

"You are trapped, I am a spider. You know what spiders usually do to trapped insects? It wouldn't kill you to be nice, as were it might kill you to be rude!"

Fucking cloudfare issues man....
>>18529067

"I CAN FLY! SEE I CAN FLY PERFECTLY WELL!"

Wait, what's that green stuff?
We should probably tell the wasp that it can't fly with an ant attached to her.

>>18529128

Green stuff is blood.

"SEE I CAN FLY! IF I COULD JUST....!

>>18529136

"PHOW"

The wasp crashes to the ground helplessly.
It looks like this isn't the first time it happened.

>>18529146

The wasp begins to sob uncontrollably.
"Why..why d-did..they leave me... be.be-behind?!
Thiss..i-iss so em.mbarrasing...!"

Oh boy, it's Spider-Quest again! Good to see that it continues.

Gif related. Dancing Bibi is good Bibi.

>>18529188

I suppose we try to comfort her?
Maybe she can tell us about the wasps or something.

The wasp continues to sob.
What do you do?

Consult Andor about the Situation, he has a lot more expirience concerning Wasps then us. Would the Wasp attack us if we set it free? We do understand that Wasps are assholes, but this here is a sentient insect in need and we are not at war, I say if it is save, we help him. Who knows, maybe he remembers us if we meet him again and he returns the fravour....maybe he will not but we have nothing to lose by being mercyfull. The only thing to gain by killing him would be food, but honestly there is MUCH more food lieing around as we are able to eat.

>>18529214

You cautiously approach the wasp and attempt to comfort her.
Andor is rather worried.
"Tread carefully! Wasps are devious creatures!"

The wasp looks at you, she seems rather devastated by her predicament.
"..sob...what are you looking..sob at... you...you eight-leg!

>>18529254

Dat tsundere wasp

Ask for Andor's advice.

>>18529254
Set her free! Maybe she'll be a little nicer if she doesn't have mandibles in her ass.

>>18529254

"Someone who I can help, even if she doesn't want me to. It's ok darling, tell us what happened, maybe we can get you back to your hive with your head held high, instead of sobbing in a pile of ant goo."

>>18529254


"Well, since you OBVIOUSLY don't want my help! I guess i'll just take this here ant and go on home with dinner taken care of!"

Remove ant from her, gently and carefully. Then declare if she wants to, she can come home with us and chow down and POSSIBLY get that wound looked at.

This way we preserve her (obvious) pride and be nice to her at the same time!

>>18529299

Even if I am for being friendly, I voted for it too, I am against taking her to our home. Andor warned us often about Wasps being devious and aggressive. If we show her where we live she might tell it her siblings at home and that could result in lethal problems for us.

Help her in every way we can, but we should not endanger ourself and our friends and children by being to rash.

You move to her back side to examine the damage.
"Are you sure about this Bibi? Wasps are untrustworthy, although this one is the sorriest excuse for a wasp I have ever encountered".

"Wha..what are you doing? I don't need your help! Jusst go away!"

You ask the wasp what happened here.

"Well, sob...well we intercepted a..a bunch of bees.. to get...to get their nectar and.. and they fell down...and the antss..WAIT I CANT TELL YOU THAT!! IT IS A SECRET! NO!"

Fucking cloudware... messing up mah quest.

>>18529334
Giving assistance to either of the two could be a major problem. We're already in not so good standing for with the ants for taking aphids. But how well known is that among them? If there are any other ants or wasps found watching could be a major deciding factor in this.

>>18529388

The ant is dead.
The wasp stabbed it to the head with it's stinger.
The ant is just too heavy, and it's grip on the wasp too firm, even though it is dead.

>>18529359
Quiet Andor! Just because she called you fat doesn't give you the excuse to be rude. Now help us get this ant off of her, you tubby lard.

>>18529441

Andor is a bro and was always helpfull and reminding us about possible dangers is a GOOD thing.
We really shouldn't speak in this tone to him.

>>18529441

Be nice to Andor! Seriously treating him like a flying mount is bad enough.

Though taking her back home would be too much of a risk.

You tell Andor that you two are going to help this wasp, even though she is needlessly rude.

"Your kindhearted naivety will get you killed someday... Very well then, but don't blame me if she tries to poison us."

"Hey! H-hey what are you doing?", the wasp yells.
"Don't touch me you ground-walking idiots! I don't want your help! S-stop!"

>>18529516

"What! You.. You freed me? I..I don't.. I don't even..!"

>>18529614

Be prepared. If Andor is right and the wasp attacks we don't want to be caught defenseless.

Tell her that the wasps are not your enemy and hopefully they never will be....and people wo are not enemies should help each other if they are in need. The Ants on the other end allready demonstrated that they are hostile. Ask her if she is okay or if you should look at her wound. You could make bandage which would stop the "bleeding" and stabilize her carapace.

>>18529614

She quickly jumps in the air and begins to fly away.

"Hmph! Well, it wasn't like I wanted your help anyways! Succers! Hahaha! Do goody idiots!"

"I hope we won't need to regret this..." Andor mutters.

>>18529677

How would we? its not like we told her anything. There are plenty of wasps out there, Though we should be careful that we aren't followed on the way back.

>>18529516
When we're sure she's gone, it's time to take these bodies back to the tree for food.

The wasp flies away.

>>18529694
"You can never be too careful when dealing with wasps...I hope your noble acts won't come back and bite you..."

What shall you do now?

>>18529736

I forgot the pic.

>>18529735
You wait for a while so that you can be sure that the wasp is gone, and then you collect the bodies inside tow web sacks. They now contain about 50 units of worth of food.

>>18529736

"A single act of kindness is not going to doom us. If anything else, that wasp MIGHT resist the compulsion to impale one of us through the head next time she sees us."

The yellow sticky stuff - does it seem to be the same thing we gave the bees? If so it seems both the wasps and ants want it. Do we have any more where that came from? Or a way of supplying it? We could become a little spider crack dealer at this rate.

oh sweet, Spider Quest is back!

>>18529772

Haul that stuff home. With so much food we can go for quite a while. That leaves time for building and doing other stuff. Combat practice for example. We have Armor now and as far as I remember even metal-spears. We should learn to utilize these new weapons. A bit of Bola-practice would help too.
Even if we are nice and helpful, there will be more fighting in the future and we should be able to do our best. If Andor or Kahless have the time, we even could practice fighting from their backs . Apart from bettering our combat skills this would also be fun....and Bibi did so much work in the last few days that a bit of fun wouldn't be wrong for her :3

>>18529818
You aren't sure about the yellow stuff on the ground. You are no expert with nectars, and the one on the ground was heavily mixed with the blood of the ants, bees and wasps, thus warping it's scent.

You have an ample source of that yellow stuff you gave to the bees, as there is a plant inside the tree hole of yours which excretes it.
>>18529803
"Let us hope so."

You take off and head back to your nest.

>>18529845

Again dammit!

As you are flying back to the safety of your nest you notice something flying straight towards you.

"AT LAST! I FOUND YOU SPIDER!"

>>18529938

Isn't that the friendly Bee we met? Wave and exchange a friendly and exited greeting.

If it's the bee, give her a friendly greeting.

At this point, I would like to propose that we never go outside our home without our armor and Glass spears.

>>18529938
we wave to the bee

>>18529992
>>18530017

"Greetings friend bee! How have you bee-"
"YOUUUUUUUUUU!"
The bee rapidly surges towards you

>>18530095
oh shit, evasive maneuvers Andor!

>>18530095

Commence defensive pattern alpha. DODGE!
"Please, calm down! Why are you so upset, I am sure we can talk this out calmly."

>>18530095

ENGAGE VENOMFANGS

>>18530095
Uh oh, that's not good. EVASIVE MANUVERS!

>>18528131can we paralyse her at all? :')

>>18530141

I don't think that that should be our first resort. even if we have metaknowledge of whats going on.

only to let us get home and talk to her when she wakes up... not to kill her

>>18530177

Poison is not the answer to everything. Also paralyzing people to bring them home is bad.

Let's try talking before we do any crazy stunts.

>>18530118

Andor dives downwards as fast as he can.
Unfortunately you don't quite manage to hold on...
(She was pretty fucking close when you decided to try to dodge)

>>18530185
I would say being a spider nullifies the fact it is frowned upon in human life ... this bee seems crazy atm crazy people attack first ask questions later I don't trust her.

>>18530189

"WHAT THE BUZZ DID YOU GIVE TO ME!!!"

>>18530201

I would say that no one would take kindly to being poisoned and abducted. Being that it was a spider that did it does not help.

>>18530209

"Normally I would say nectar, but I'm guessing that somehow that is wrong."

>>18530185
Seconded.

(The amount of times my party has "enforced prolonged enjoyment of our hospitatlity" is getting ridiculous)

I guess I just think being too nice would leave us to be killed by ants,wasps or crazy bee's

>>18530214

"IT HAS DRIVEN THEM INSANE! ALL OF THEM! THEY WANT MORE OF IT AND WE DON'T HAVE MORE! THEY TASTED IT AND NOW EVEN THE QUEEN IS NUTS! THIS IS ALL YOUR FAULT!"

>>18530261

Btw you are falling downwards. Quite fast actually.

>>18530261

"Well that's odd, but if they want more, we have more, also, try not to ram us into the ground."

>>18530261
We can sort this out, but let's not smash into the ground first, shall we?

>>18530261

"I am sorry that it turned out like that, please, let us talk and....and stop crashing us into the ground. Please, we can talk this out, really! I just gave you nectar from this plant in our home, you are the first Bee I ever met, how could I have known that it would affect you badly? Please, let us talk this out...and if MORE Nectar would help the Situation we could always easily get more!"

>>18530281
>>18530284

"...Alright then...But you better help me out, or otherwise the overseer will feed me to the grubs..."

I suppose we head back to the nest, let her explain everything and ask everyone if they know what's going on.

>>18530310
"Don't worry, we have plenty more. And we'll be happy to give it to you. But if we anything were to happen to us, your supply would dry up. So about those wasps/ants/other bees...."

Also, can we set up some sort of agriculture at our nest? We *really* don't want this plant to die. Or at least not until we have others.

>>18530341

No don't take her back to the nest, we can't let out either the location of the nest.

>>18530355
...
I meant
Or the nectar.

>>18530345

"I see what you are trying to do. But trying to blackmail me isn't going to work. I won't be making the decision about allying with you, the people who your "nectar" has driven nuts are. So save your breath and give me more of that stuff."

>>18530345

And yes, there is water and other stuff inside your nest, so you could cultivate the plants further.

Should we tell her that we don't even know what this stuff actually is?

>>18530402
Fuck no. We act like we know exactly what this is, until we actually know more about it. In for a penny...

>>18530385

"Now now we aren't trying to manipulate you, trust me!" Try to act as Innocent as you can bibi!!

"However if we are going to give you any more we have to do it away from the source, we can't have you take that from us. So how about we meet later where we first met? We will tell you where we have stashed some nectar then, for you to collect."

>>18530402

All it did was make an aphid hyper and then tired though right? We know something, but not much. and no, we don't tell her.

Sounds like we need to start work on a beehab program :P

"I THOUGHT IT WAS NECTAR, I'M SORRY IF IT WAS ACTUALLY LIQUID METH OR SOMETHING"

>>18530385

"We will, but firstly I want to say that I am sorry that this turned out badly for you. I did not want to cause trouble for anyone, I just wanted to gain your friendship and allies. We will bring more Nectar to the flower we initially met you, your workers can take the stuff from there to the Nest. You have my promise that we will get to it as fast as we can. Please inform your people and wait for us there."

>>18530439
Given the bee's reaction, it seems to make everything hyper.

>>18530427
>>18529818
If we go down the whole drug dealing mafioso spider route, and the other bugs find out what this stuff actually is/where to get more of it, we are royally screwed.

>>18530453

No that sets us up for an ambush. We go to met them there, but we stash the nectar elsewhere, and tell them where we stashed it.

>>18530432
>>18530453

You attempt to negotiate with the bee.

"Hhmm... I dunno if I can let you go... How can I know that you are true to your word? Though if you really wanted us as allies you wouldn't had intentionally given us some sort of poison... What stops us from finding the source ourselves?"

>>18530303
FOOL!
You should tell her the location of the Wasp-Ant battlefield and tell her we got some of it from around there.

Which is what I want to do now.

>>18530480

"How would we know if it was poison?! All it did was make an aphid hyper! and the rest of us don't eat nectar so we had no reason to try it ourselves." Say that innocently.

and then say "However if you want poison we can get you poison." Like a sleazy business man.

>>18530480
First time I check out one of these threads. I only once read the OP, replied "That is incredibly adorable" and left...

Now I regret that.

Good job OP! You are a marvel of mankind.

>>18530485
Wait, didn't they steal that from the bees, after we gave it to them?

>>18530508
This is turning into Spider Trainspotting.

>>18530516

Nope.
You aren't exactly sure that that was the same nectar, and you clearly saw the bee you are currently talking to and her overseer flying back to their nest with the nectar you gave to them.

>>18530511
Oh, thanks!

>>18530516
Oh? That's a shame, I am here for virtually the first time
>>18530511 here btw.

I just don't think it's a good idea to let them know where the source is. We just made ourselves the bees target... and once the ants and wasps get wind of it, we'll be in some deep shit.
I guess we might have to abondon the nest and get a new one.
We need a safehouse.

Man, this is turning into some sort of Gardenpunk Spiderrunning.

>>18530538

If you are new here there are some things you need to know.
First Bibi is a badass, see pic, that dragon fly is ours now.
Second the nest is being fortified,
Third we are building up an armory
forth we Will take over the world.

>>18530537
>>18530538
Alright, my bad. I'm new here too.

But wait, assuming it *is* the same stuff, that means either they got it from us, or there's another source somewhere. In which case, we need to find it and fast.

First things first though, dealing with our current predicament

>>18530508

"I guess that makes sense...I really need to get that stuff back to home quickly. I don't know how long the overseers and the royal guard can keep the situation under control..."

>>18530537
>>18529209
My God OP. I'm normally phobic of spiders. But these are so darned adorable!

We should do the right thing and apologize. We knew that this was some sort of special nectar that made an aphid sort of exctatic. We wanted to give the bees something like a beverage, to let steam off and have fun. We really did not know that it would make you people insane! And how could we know that your people would delve into it without some some sort of test? If it is a poison for your people, maybe we can find a way to turn that around. We want to help after all and not that you have to suffer. We wanted friends and allies and insane bees would not be either of that.

>>18530585
We should also tell her that the aphid became very tired and sleepy after a while, so the problem should kinda solve itself.

>>18530570

Some anon actually made a quite sweet pic about the moment when we caught the dragon.
All creds to him.

>>18530597

This, then send back andor to get some more nectar. Whispering to him to be sure not to be followed. Tell the bee that we can't just release the location of the nectar, because it happens to be located in a vital military interest, but that in the future we may be able to give them a plant that makes it.

So... Bees are Buccaneers, Wasps are Vikings... what are Ants?

>a vital military interest
Wait, is this spider quest, or dictator quest? Or dictator -spider quest?

>>18530593

"Alright! I agree for now. Not that I trust you, or really even want to, but I realize that I have no other choice right now. I can't force you to tell me where the source is, I am not a warrior.
But I tell you this, if you double cross us, you WILL see warriors.
So where will we meet again, and how soon? The overseers cant keep playing the role of the queen and her council forever."

>>18530655

This is spiderquest and played like its Spiderqueen quest.

>>18530655
If we pull of our nectra-dealing, we'll be Scarface in a week.

in the sunflower fields 2 days from now, should give us enough time

>>18530651

Daleks.

Seriously though, the ants are the most single minded, and the least intelligent of all the hiver species (bees, wasps, ants etc.) They are also very aggressive.

The bees are neutral, they only care about making honey, while the wasps are aggressive butcherer, thieves and bullies. though they mainly bully bees.

>>18530661
"Let us meet in an hour at the place we first met. By then I will have obtained some of the nectar and deposited in in a save place, I will then lead you to this place, alone, and hand it over. Please understand that I only want you to get there and noone else. I really regret all of this, and I hope we can work this out!"

Plan: Find out if nectar-plant has seeds. If yes, plant secondary nectar-site, allow bees to find, let them deal with problems

>>18530661

"How dire is the situation, how much time do we have? If your higher-ups requested more of this Nectar right away...this could be a problem, as we did not harvest any more yet. But we will get to work on it immediatly. I say we meet you in three hours in the place we first met you. There we will give you whatever we could harvest in the meantime. This should hopefully be enough to straighten the situation at your home and give us the time to prepare for a bigger shipment a few days from now."

>>18530671

"TWO DAYS?! We need it urgently! I can't agree to that!"

>>18530687
"Now this is better. Give us some of that stuff first, enough to satiate the needs of our queen, and then I will return in two days for a larger supply, so we can store it."

>>18530706
"Ok, we will meet in two days, where we first met."

I say goodbye, express (yet again) my regret of this situation.
I then call for Andor.

>>18530719
Addendum: "...Meet in an hour for the honey and then agin in two days..."
whoops sorry.

Hm.

Free a wasp .. enslave the bees.

We over all the place, mon.

so it's now official.... we're now drug dealing spiders

>>18530732
Freeing the wasp is only the first step to enslaving the wasps as well. We also have Chyrsi, don't forget.

>>18530727

Its nectar, not honey!

>>18530732

That's because our alignment is chaotic dictator.

>>18530732
TRUE NEUTRAL!
Because Fuck You, Karma!

No Bibi is a good and friendly little Spider. We are a paladin of spiderkind...we even have the armor now :3

>>18530743


Ah true neutral, truly the alignment of Rule- No, not even the alignment of Rulers, the Alignment of GODS.

YOU SHALL ASCEND BIBI! SO THAT YOU MAY TAKE THE ETHEREAL THRONE OF SPIDER QUEEN!

>>18530754

And Kahless is our epic paladin mount!

Okay, when we head back to the nest, we check on Dorpu's progress, our young, thank Andor for putting up with us so far and head back out to finish the deal.

SpiderQuest for Lolths origin story.

"It's a deal then! I'll be waiting you at the sunflowers. You better show up!"

You hear Andor flying over you.
"Are you alright down there?!"

"I'll be going then, don't you cross us spider" 321 says and flies away.

>>18530773
"Fine, Fine.
Just doing... Business.
Take us back to the nest, Andor."

"Andor, we have to give the Bees some nectar... We'll bring some to a hidden place and then meet them in an hour to lead them there... oh man, this is slowly getting over my head..."

As Bibi sighs, she goes back on Andors back and tells him to fly a bit towards the nest and check for persuers.

>>18530767
Do this.

We're gonna need a set of sunglasses and a cigarette holder if this keeps up. Just saying.

>>18530796
One set for all eight eyes or just a piece for our front two?

After doing few detours to lose any would be pursuers you return to your nest.
It seems that Dorpou has managed to expand the pen.

>>18530833
shades on all eyes...

>>18530796

You already have some sort of glasses...

>>18530857

Now confirmed for Hunter S. Bibi

Investigate nectar plant, see if has seeds or something.

Shouldn't we be thinking of weaning them off of this stuff? If we give them a plant and they go all twist-o-max on us what use will they be as allies?

>>18530796

>>18530909

It's a colony of large, armored, angry insects with poison butts that we addicted to their version of crack cocaine. We might have screwed the pooch so far as our chances of allying with them are concerned.

>>18530913

Something went very wrong when I posted this.
How could I forget the text itself?

You land. The aphid pen has been expanded, and Ranou is still working on the prototype. Bubbles seems to be lecturing one of your siblings about something, Dorpou is giving the pen some finishing touches and Kahless is eating something.

>>18530913
i thought this was a picture of a stick figure who's face is a hole filled with insects

>>18530883

You go and investigate.

(I need to stop soon, the time is almost 4.40 am here.

>...Kahless is eating something.

We'll make more of them with Dorpou.

>Find out what's up with Bubbles

"Uh-oh, what happened here?"

Thank Dorpou for working so diligently
See what Bubbles is teaching our hatchlings
Try to talk with Kahless to see if he's getting used to his new life.

For the record, and as another service to anyone who wants to get up to speed on this Quest, we've been wikied.

Also - wish I could'a been here more for the return of SQ but cloudflare cockblocked me all day.

Thanks for keeping it running guys! And thanks again OP!

>>18530943

The plants don't seem to have any seeds, instead new ones seem to grow from their root network that grows on and under the detritus.

>>18530945

Oh, no worries, as you passed by him, he seemed to be eating some sort of moth or a butterfly.

Right, check on everybdy and see if everything is allright. If it is, we should get to harvesting the nectar and maybe consider making plans to grow more of it. If this stuff turns out to be not THAT bad and not addictive it could be a good trading good. Also if the bees really are addicted and we cannot get them free from it, we will have to produce enough to fullfill their demands.

I usually end my quest with this pick, but fuck it, I'll use it now.

THANK YOU! This is AWESOME! You rock! I never dreamed that this would get an wiki article!

Have we tested this stuff on the Aphids?

>>18531002

You have...

>>18531002

yeah, one of them is out "cocaine" plant and the other one is a acidic plant

OK, let's see what Madam schoolmarm is up to. Let's not interfere, just check it out.

Sorry guys, I think that I'll have to end this here anyways.
It is very late, and I am getting sleepy.
Fucking cloudware messed shit up, and I started this thing rather late, so I apologize if this stops in a rather shitty place, but I really need to sleep.

I'll try to run this quest next saturday, starting around 10-14 server time.
Once again, any input is appreciated.

>>18531071

No problem. A good restart as well. Thanks!

>>18531071

Oh, and thanks to the kind anon who archived this!

>>18531091

No problem, I kinda missed doing this too.

>>18531071

Thanks for running this and returning
Next time you should include Kahless into the group picture...because I like him. Even the name was my suggestion. :3

Sleep well OP!

We love you, OP.

>>18531110

I will ad him, but now I am too tired.
Night gents!

>>18531121

(I need a spider version of this.)

>>18531162

Request is Bibi related
