You are hungry.

So very, very hungry.

And there is food in front of you... it is time to CONSUME.

All of life's worries seem to melt away as you messily devour all of the chicken that you see. Washing it all down with a long chug of magically-cooled water, you breathe a long sigh of satisfaction.

"Good eating, huh?" Nicolette says to you with a chuckle.
"Yes it was," you reply.
"Well, I guess it's time for me to head off..."

Nicolette gets up from her seat and stretches.

"You're busy tonight?" you ask.
"Yeah, Guillaume was nagging me about some sword trick he wanted to show me so I'm headed out there for a while," Nicolette replies.
"Guess I'll head out too," Sylvie says as she finishes off the last of her chicken. "I went kind of overboard during today's fight so I have barely enough left in me for one usage of Starlight Wing to get home. "

Maybe we should ask Sylvie about having an emphasis on defensive spells later. Immobilizing spells like Marianne's ice wall might be some shit if we get caught in it. But since it's been a long day, we should just do other stuff.

But it probably has to do with the fact that we won the tournament and he's an aspiring swordsman.

Just a note, sword training with Arnaud starts the day after tomorrow. Not tonight.

Seconded, we were comepletely at her mercy. We need to be able to get past status imparting spells like that if we ever face a mage. This is our princesses life we are risking not being able to get out of holds like that.

Hey Arch does missing a flag permanently lock you out of some events/outcomes/routes or can they be recovered with a write in or good rolls?

>>27872674
It's kind of overdoing it. There is such a thing as too nice. Marianne kind of feels really bad about how she treats us compared to how we treat her. We've done enough at the moment and she needs time and space. We should back off on just showering her in kindness, especially since not only does she have paranoia and self-esteem related issues regarding how we treat her, but she doesn't like people who don't have a backbone and let her walk all over them.

She messed up and overreacted and we apologized for what we did wrong even though we got the most hurt out of the whole thing. It's her turn to be nice to us.

I'm saying this as a Marie fag.

for the love of god stop treating it like a fucking VN and try to act like a human being

>>27872769
In terms of events, it's possible. Inviting Melanie along on the trip into town had a TON of effects on later events, the most recent of which being that she was able to defuse Marianne's breakdown by telling her about Citrine.

Outcomes, every time. Not hanging out with someone today means that you can't hang out with them today, etc.

Routes, potentially. Not inviting Melanie along would have lost you the meidoroute forever, for example. I'll try and make it clear through context as to whether a choice will lead to a routelock, though.

Pretty clear sex happened. Was a brothel after all.

>>27873251
It's pretty much confirmed to have been what happened.

As Nicolette and Sylvie head for the door, you call out to them.

"Hey, guys?" you begin. "This might sound kind of lame, but I just want to say thanks. It was a big relief to find friends around my age and level here in the castle."
"Aw, man..." Nicolette says, smiling guiltily. "Shit, now you're embarassing me."
"Umm, I'm happy to have met you as well!" Sylvie says, blushing slightly.
"Yeah, it's cool to be able to hang around someone besides Sylvie who isn't scared of me," Nicolette says.

"And if either of you needs my help with anything, feel free to ask. I'll do whatever I can," you say to them.
"Well, in that case..." Nicolette smiles evilly, "...I'm sure that Sylvie would love it if you helped her into her party dress when we get to Marconetti. It's kind of hard to get those things on by yourself, you know..."

Upon hearing Nicolette's little comment, Sylvie turns beet-red.

"NICOLETTE I THOUGHT I WARNED YOU ABOUT MAKING JOKES LIKE THAT" she shouts, trying to punch Nicolette.
"Sorry, I couldn't help myself!" Nicolette says, laughing as she runs away from Sylvie.
"GET BACK HERE I NEED TO PUNCH YOU"

You look on with an embarassed grin as Sylvie chases Nicolette out of the kitchen.

With all do respect, this is a shitty philosophy to take. Few fuckups are too great to come back from, and just not inviting someone (especially when she didn't seem to want to come) would be over the top. This isn't a VN, after all, and we can't play it through repeatedly.

In character I think Reinhold has known how Sylvie fees for a while. He doesn't do anything about it because she's a noble woman and he's some kid from the ghetto. Damaged goods and all. He probably thinks she can and will do better.

>>27873676
>the Master of Pain (as yet unidentified?)
That fire elemental.

You're kind of really curious as to how the Princess is doing... but bothering her right now is probably not the best thing to do. So instead, you decide to look for Melanie, the person who would most likely know how she's doing.

You wander the halls for a good twenty minutes, looking inside every open room that you walk past, scouring the hallways and stairwells... it's pretty hard finding someone when you have no idea what their schedule is.

But just a you're about to give up and go see what Niklaus is up to instead, you spot Melanie just as she turns a corner! Hurrying up to find her before she disappears, you run around the corner and tap her on the shoulder.

"Hey, Melanie?" you say.
"Kyaa!" Melanie shrieks in fright, and then turns to face you. "M- Mr. Reinhold? What are you doing out here?"
"Looking for you, actually," you reply. "Sorry for scaring you like that."
"Um- no, it's my fault for being jumpy," she says, bowing. "So, what did you need from me?"

"I was wondering if you knew how the Princess was doing," you say.
"Oh. I see," Melanie says as she adjusts her glasses. "I was just checking on her, she seems to have cried herself to sleep."
"...oh," you say, now feeling kind of bad.
"She bounces back quickly, though. Don't worry, I'm sure she'll be fine tomorrow. And you don't have to worry about me mentioning a thing about this entire debacle to anyone, the King just thinks that she's in one of her moods."

"Sorry for running off earlier, my nerves were kind of shot too," you say.
"You don't have any need to apologize," Melanie replies with a smile. "I could tell that that entire incident was hard on both of you. Are you feeling better now?"
"Hm? Uh, yeah. Pretty much."
"That's great to hear!"
"By the way, what were you going to suggest before, when you stopped yourself midsentence?"

It takes a few seconds for Melanie to figure out what exactly you meant by that, and then she starts laughing.

"Oh, I was going to offer to accompany you on a walk outside the castle grounds for a bit so that you could clear your mind," Melanie replies, laughing nervously. "That's what I always do when the stress of castle life gets to me, and it seemed that you needed it... but I guess swinging your sword around helped with that?"
"Heh. Yeah, for the most part. Thanks for the consideration, though."

"Oh yeah," you say as you snap your fingers. "Before everything went all nuts, were were talking about congratulating Sylvie on her win against Niklaus... I ended up asking her to show up when we have tea tomorrow afternoon."
"Oh, that would be wonderful!" Melanie says happily. "The Princess is sure to enjoy that, she's been so depressed lately about drifting apart from Nicolette and Sylvie..."
"So I was wondering what to do about cakes or something, since I know that the Princess likes sweets."
"Oh- um- I'd be happy to take care of that! What did you have in mind?"

Damnit. Of course /tg/ will just pick whatever they think is funny instead of sensible.

Seconding these because this is going to go terribly if we don't have backup cakes.

All these uppity girls always fighting or crying all the time. You know it would be chill to chill with the guards from the start of the quest they seemed like chill ass dudes. We could like hit up the local tavern or something. Plus it we be chill to have some connects with the little people we where like them once after all.

Bro, it's anime. Baking a cake is always sensible.

Arch, for the love of god, I hope you either have backup cakes ready or just say "lol you don't have the time for that shit"

>>27874784
Sure, why don't we go visit a brothel and book one of the boys to pass on some advice

Actually, having thought about it some more, making a cake isn't really a good idea. Not in the sense that it's a bad idea, in the sense that it really doesn't fit the circumstance.

>>27874795
Not when you don't have time or don't know how.

Seriously, we have princess guard duty all day when are we going to have time to make a cake and how is it going to actually turn out good?

You're just going to bet on a nat 20 like an idiot?

I don't actually think the princess will appreciate having a rien made cake right now.

>>27874798
I think we're all saying that we'll make one cake and get the rest from wilhem's that way if we fail, we can ditch the cake and still have treats.

>>27874676
I'd rather not, we're not a baker by any stretch of the imagination.

I change my vote from "Wilhelm" to baking + Wilhelm backup cakes.

In fact, let's get everyone doing it. Nicolette, Sylvie and the Princess. Maybe we could borrow Sylvie's home?

They also won't be as good as the professionally made ones. I'm sure they'll appreciate the sentiment of buying a good cake just as much as baking a shitty one.

which do you think will be a more constructive use of our time?

>>27874956
>>27874947

Having both baked and eaten cakes I can confirm this as truth.

Bitches (and dudes) love cake. Doesn't fucking matter if it's awful, you baked them a fucking cake.

>>27874972
So get backup cakes dumb faggot.

>>27874947
Yeah, but the bought cakes are nicer and we've already exceeded her "do nice things for no reason" threshold, she was crying because she felt like a bitch for losing her temper with us, for fuck's sake. Going out of our way to be nice is the wrong thing to do right now, it'll just rub her nose in it. Better to let other people be nice to her for a while.

>>27874956
The part where we could still do that without doing something we don't even know how to do and don't have time to prepare.

>>27874972

But the sentiment in the actual homemade cake over powers that of store bought cakes.

YOu don't just bake cakes for just anyone.

>>27874972
Have you never had someone bake you a cake?

I really don't think you're getting the sentimental value.

>>27874972
People will appreciate that you bake them a cake far, far more than if you just bought them one no matter how good it is.
Plus cake is fucking easy to bake, you'd have to be a retarded to fuck up making a cake when you have a recipe.

I was considering baking a cake today just because.
And then this happens.

>>27874930

Well, it's on you to show how this is lolsorandom.

Baking a cake is a perfectly valid choice at this juncture.

1) This is animu/vn quest. Every other or third animu and vn has some sort of cooking or baking episode.
2) It could be a good excuse to get the girls together to have some fun.
3) It's a bit of harmless fun.
4) Survival training for when we don't have cake.
5) Ties in well with all the cake we've seen so far: the Wilhelm's, all the tea-times, and there was that episode in Sylvie's kitchen. Turkey legs are cooking, right?

>>27874988
Because this fully staffed castle surely has no kitchen staff and our meidofriend can't help us.

>>27874998
Have you ever eaten an awful cake? the sentiment doesn't really make it across.

>>27874979
Well our job is to protect the princess, if the cake helped her emotional state it would be that one. I'm not convinced it really will though.

I don't think our homemade cake would be better than the Princess's favorite cakes.

I'm still voting for baking though because it could be potentially interesting.

>>27875019

Probably not.

But if it was bad, she'll complain to the high heavens. But I think she'll still eat it.

>>27875015
I don't think you understand. It's fucking night and not the time for cake baking. It's better to have them fresh, after all. But we don't have time to bake then because we'll be guarding the princess.

>>27875014
Nicolette's kitchen. Reinhold hasn't been to Sylvie's sweet ass pad.

>>27875014
Valid, but bad because
>>27874987
She's just going to cry again if we tell her we baked her a cake.

You know, I'm not even sure such a thing even exists.

>>27875055

Because we never have some hours to kill in the morning. Jesus Christ.

>>27875016
I had a cake made with whole wheat flower. It was aweful. The cake literally made me sad. Had it not been baked by my grandmother, I would have thought the person hated me.

Not only can a bad cake not convey sentiment, it even has the potential to convey the opposite

>>27875043
You don't seem to understand how easy it is to bake a mediocre cake, or much it would matter to a princess who has almost no friends.

>>27875068

Different anon but try a cake where someone swapped the sugar with salt.

Totally worth the asskicking.

>>27875055
>She's just going to cry again if we tell her we baked her a cake.
I'm starting to get why people have a hard time with her sometimes.

>>27875011
It's funny, how that turn out right?

I'm kind of surprise my suggestion got a lot of debate.

It's just baking.

Then let her cry! Let her look upon the cake we, Reinhold the Supreme Baker, baked and let her cry if he has to!

>>27875068
That's because bad cakes are preemptively killed and thrown out when they lose their potential.

>>27875040
"This t-tastes awful, Reinhold, you're a terrible cook, w-why do you even try?"

"I'm going to have one of m-my maids dispose of it, posthaste!"

And then she sits in her room eating the whole thing because Reinhold made it with totally platonic love.

>>27875081
She already hates herself because Reinhold is too nice. Somehow. This is like shooting somebody in the foot here and acting like it was a favor. I don't even know who.

We're not baking Marianne a cake we're baking Sylvie a cake for winning her fight.

>>27875100
You're a dick.

>>27875097
She actually might not cry and just get paranoid. She freaked out so bad at us because she thought we were just trying to take advantage of her like her last bodyguard. She doesn't take kindness very straightforwardly.

>>27875127
This actually makes sense

Go with this

>>27875043
It is INCREDIBLY easy to make a passable cake, especially if you've got someone who actually knows what they're doing telling you what to do.

>>27875114
We can always say we're baking it to celebrate Sylvie's stunning victory.

>>27875127
why not both?

>>27875127
Good point.

>>27875127
Why not both?

>>27875127
No. We're baking both a cake because we want them to be friends again. Fuck all your waifu bullshit.

>>27875100
so, we're going to make a cake with princess tears topping?

>>27875127
Oh, right. Well that's okay then. Now there's only the logistics of when we'll do it.

>>27875130
Sometimes you have to let the tears out. Not all crying is bad.

>>27875127

Both really.

>>27875145
There's just no point in it. It's annoyingly pointless, in fact.

>>27875127
No we're baking nick a cake with 'better luck next time' written on it and we already took a bite of it.

Cake is actually kind of a poor choice for tea time anyways, we should be making cookies.

Realistically a proper tea setting, especially for royalty, should already have a decent assortment of cookies and cakes to chose from. I mean, my grandma does that by herself and the princess has a whole castle staff.

Is archelon writing or whatever because this is getting ridiculous.

I suspect it's an archaic name from when cookies were a subtype of cake, considering that's how it works in Danish.

Because the Brits are crazy and can't into English.

We're not the kitchen staff. Whoever makes the tea should also be providing at least a few small platters of cakes (which does include cookies in this context, thank you very much).

>>27875234
Dude has a point. I'm pretty sure rienhold doesn't have to do a damn thing for teatime to work out. If you want to hang out with the meido then hang out with her. Don't make up stupid shit because you think you need an excuse.
