  1. Shocking Departure
  2. Blindeyes, at the suggestion of Raet and Boomerang_Flash, decided to go visit the land of Praxis. Since he either has no idea how money works or just likes being poor, he decided to take a cruise ship. Currently he is rushing to the upper deck to watch the sunset over the ocean. Or to vomit.
  3. Blindeyes: *BLARG!* F-fuck you ocean! When I get back to shore, I’m gonna *BLARG!* probably do more of that… *After a few moments of vomiting and cursing at the ocean, Blindeyes turns around and finds an erumo staring motionless at the ocean* Hey, that’s the erumo that’s been pranking me ever since I got on this hell boat. Why’s she just staring off into space like that? Hmm… I have an idea. *Blindeyes sneaks up behind the erumo* Hey~. Miss Erumo~.
  4. Erumo: …
  5. BE: She’s still out of it. Good. *Blindeyes gets closer and begins tickling the erumo’s armpits* SURPRISE!
  6. Five hours later, Blindeyes wakes up in his cabin with a doctor and the erumo watching over him.
  7. BE: Ow…
  8. E: He’s awake! Doctor, he’s awake!
  9. Doctor: About time too. Any longer and I’d start thinking he’d fallen into a coma.
  10. BE: What happened? And why do I feel numb?
  11. E: W-well…
  12. D: When you surprised our little friend here, she reflexively electrocuted you with enough power to send you hurtling across the deck. You’re lucky you weren’t hurt any worse than you were.
  13. BE: I’m feeling really lucky right now… Oh wait, that’s the numbness…
  14. D: Regardless, you’re doing better now so I’ll be going. Be sure to let me know if anything happens.
  15. E: Of course doctor!
  16. D: Goodbye.
  17. E: Bye, bye! *the doctor leaves the cabin* Are you doing ok?
  18. BE: Sort of, I guess. I’m not dead so that’s good.
  19. E: S-sorry!
  20. BE: No don’t… Don’t be sorry.
  21. E: B-but I’m the first mamonme you’ve ever met, and I almost killed you!
  22. BE: That’s true, but I’m the one who surprised you. I shouldn’t have been shocked that a mamonme born of plasma and energy might be able to hurt me.
  23. E: Hehe “shocked”. Regardless, I still feel bad about hurting you. Can I do something to make it up to you?
  24. BE: What did you have in mind?
  25. E: We erumo are known for our massages! Would you like one?
  26. BE: Well, I can’t move and probably couldn’t stop you if I wanted to. Go ahead.
  27. E: Great! You won’t regret this! *The erumo proceeds to give blindeyes a massage. He enjoyed it so much that he got her to give him one every day until they reached land.
  28.  
  29. Tour Guide
  30. After saying goodbye to his new erumo friend, Blindeyes leaves the cruise ship and steps onto the dock. There he finds a young succubus-like girl with dark red hair and a frilly dress holding up a sign with his name on it.
  31. BE: Hey there. I’m Blindeyes.
  32. Wendy: H-hello B-blindeyes. I’m Wendy a-and I’ll b-be your t-tour guide while y-you’re visiting Praxis.
  33. BE: Nice to meet you Wendy. Quick question before we go any further, you’re not with Sabbath are you?
  34. W: W-what’s a Sabbath?
  35. BE: Good answer. *Blindeyes walks up to Wendy and shakes her hand* My life is in your hands Wendy.
  36. W: *blush*Oh s-stop it! I-I’m just going to be showing you around. I-I’m n-not even that good at it…
  37. BE: Oh don’t be like that Wendy! I bet you’re a really capable…?
  38. W: Wendy.
  39. BE: Wendy…?
  40. W: We’re a type of succubus. *Wendy smiles*
  41. BE: So you’re a Wendy… Named Wendy…
  42. W: Yes?
  43. BE: Doesn’t that get confusing?
  44. W: Aren’t there Alice mamono named Alice where you come from?
  45. BE: Point taken. So what are we up to first Wendy?
  46. W: First we’ll go to your hotel. I don’t have anything planned for today, so you can either check out the city or you can rest up for tomorrow.
  47. BE: Sounds like a plan. Let’s go!
  48. W: Yeah! *Blindeyes and Wendy find a taxi and make their way to the hotel. Blindeyes opts to relax, and only leaves his room to go eat. He gets back late and starts to get ready for bed when he hears a knock at his door. He opens it to find Wendy*
  49. BE: Oh hey Wendy. What up?
  50. W: W-well, I-I locked m-myself out of my apartment, a-and I was h-hoping I c-could stay with you?
  51. BE: I knew it!
  52. W: K-knew what?
  53. BE: You are with Sabbath!
  54. W: What? N-no I’m not!
  55. BE: Nice try sister, but I know your game! You were going to use your diabetes inducing cuteness and adorably meek personality to get close to me. Then, you turn me into your onii-chan when my defenses are down!
  56. W: No I won’t! Why would I even want to?
  57. BE: You know exactly why! Tell Carina-chan I said hello the next time you see her! *Blindeyes runs into his rooms and locks himself in the bathroom. Wendy begins to knock on the bathroom door*
  58. W: Blindeyes! You’ve got to believe me! I don’t even know a Carina-chan! Come out! You’re being a very bad boy! *Two hours later, Wendy manages to convince Blindeyes that she wasn’t a member of Sabbath. She forced him to share his bed with her in retaliation*
  59.  
  60. Heavenly Meeting
  61. After waking up alone, Wendy went looking for the wayward Blindeyes. She eventually found him in the hotel’s breakfast area with a Celestial who had honey blonde hair, and rainbow banded eyes.
  62. W: Blindeyes!
  63. BE: Hmm? Oh, hey Wendy. How’s it going?
  64. W: You left me alone in the room! Where’d you go, and why didn’t you tell me?
  65. BE: Well, you looked tired so I figured I’d let you sleep while I went for breakfast. I guess I just lost track of the time.
  66. W: Hmph!
  67. ?: It seems you’ve upset your little friend.
  68. BE: I think your right Eihy.
  69. W: Eihy?
  70. BE: Oh right! I haven’t introduced you! Eihy, this is Wendy. She’s going to be my tour guide while I’m here. Wendy, this is Eiraiha. She’s a… You said you were a Celestial right?
  71. Eiraiha: *Eiraiha giggles* You got it! It’s nice to meet you Wendy.
  72. W: N-nice t-to meet you t-too! Um, could I ask you a question Lady Eiraiha?
  73. BE: Lady Eiraiha? Isn’t that a little too formal Wendy?
  74. W: It isn’t when you’re talking to THE PRINCIPAL GODDESS OF PRAXIS!
  75. BE: Wait, you’re the principal goddess?
  76. E: Indeed I am.
  77. BE: Holy shit! … take mushrooms…*Eiraiha giggles*
  78. E: So you had a question Wendy?
  79. W: I-I was wondering about how you knew Blindeyes.
  80. E: Oh this is the first time we’ve met. However I am good friends with Raet and Boomerang_Flash, and they’ve told me all about him.
  81. BE: Hahaha I hope not…
  82. E: Ok, maybe I was exaggerating a bit, but when I found out you were coming to visit my lands, I knew I had to welcome you here personally.
  83. BE: Well that’s pretty nice of you. Although I was hoping someone as pretty as you just came over to get to know me better.
  84. E: I’m married.
  85. BE: Getting to know me better platonically?
  86. E: That’s better.
  87. W: But aren’t you going to get in trouble if you just drop everything to come visit?
  88. E: I’m sure Alyssum will understand… I hope… Speaking of Raet and Boomerang, how much have they told you about Praxis?
  89. BE: Not a lot honestly.
  90. E: Really? That’s odd, I thought I told them to spread the word about Praxis around the world… They did tell you about me though, right?
  91. BE: U-uh… *dark clouds begin to form around Eiraiha*
  92. E: Didn’t they mention me? Even once? *the clouds grow darker and multiply until they hover over the table*
  93. BE: W-well you see… W-we don’t get the chance to talk a lot, so maybe they might not have had the opportunity to? *the clouds begin to rain, soaking Blindeyes and Wendy*
  94. E: I see…
  95. W: Blindeyes! You better apologize for upsetting Lady Eiraiha!
  96. BE: She’s upset?
  97. W: Do you think it’d be raining right now if she wasn’t?
  98. BE: Aw shi-oot, this is the Ilias incident all over again… Sorry about this Eihy…
  99. E: Don’t worry about it Blindeyes. I’m not upset at you, I’m… Unhappy with my servants. I’m going to have to go and have a word with them. I’ll need to be going now, but I hope you have a pleasant vacation. Good bye! *Eiraiha extends her arms and wings before floating up into the air. As she ascends, she begins to emit a holy light before disappearing in a flash. The rain then stops, and the clouds disappear*
  100. BE: Wow!
  101. W: That was one of the most amazing things I’ve ever seen!
  102. BE: Raet and Boomerang_Flash are so dead aren’t they?
  103. W: Most likely.
  104.  
  105. Illusions and Water
  106. After a short ride out of town on a bus, Blindeyes and Wendy are walking along a river.
  107. BE: So Wendy, what are we doing here? I thought we were going to head to the riverboat.
  108. W: We will, but you said you wanted to meet mamonme. And I heard that there was a very interesting one living around here.
  109. BE: Dear God, what’s that smell?
  110. W: We’re getting close.
  111. BE: Ok? *They continue to walk along the river until Blindeyes spots a beautiful woman lying on a beach* Woah! Is that her?
  112. W: She doesn’t look like what I was expecting…
  113. BE: Well I’m going to go talk to her anyway. *he begins to run towards the mystery woman* Hey! What’s a good looking girl like you AAAAHHHH! *Blindeyes screams as he suddenly falls through the ground*
  114. W: BLINDEYES! *The ground melts away to reveal a sharp bend in the river. The beach the woman, who turned out to be a kaaiman, was sitting on was actually a sandbar. Meanwhile Blindeyes was struggling to swim*
  115. Kaaiman: HAHAHA! That was awesome! You fell for that hook, line, and sinker! *Blindeyes slips under the water*
  116. W: Blindeyes! You have to help him!
  117. K: Hey chill! He’s a grown man, I’m sure he can *the bubbles where Blindeyes was drowning stop coming up* swim…
  118. W: B-blindeyes…
  119. K: … *Suddenly Blindeyes appears in front of Wendy*
  120. BE?: Boo!
  121. W: Blindeyes! You’re ok!
  122. BE?: OK? I feel more than ok! I feel FANTASTIC! Come Wendy! Let us frolic! *Blindeyes (?) runs into the nearby woods*
  123. W: BLINDEYES WAIT! We can’t frolic! We’ll be late for the boat! *Wendy chases after Blindeyes (?)*
  124. K: … Ok now that she’s out of the way, it’s time to find that fool. I hope he’s still alive… *the kaaiman dives into the water to rescue the waterlogged Blindeyes*
  125.  
  126. Mishap
  127. After getting onto a riverboat, Wendy leads Blindeyes to a table on the main deck.
  128. W: How are you holding up Blindeyes?
  129. BE: Pretty good considering I almost drowned…
  130. W: Right… Well the boats going to set sail soon, so you can stay put while I go get us something to eat.
  131. BE: Thanks Wendy. You’re the best.
  132. W: A-ah shucks! *Wendy blushes before skipping off, and leaving Blindeyes alone. Eventually the boat begins to move*
  133. BE: I guess we’re setting off. Hm? What’s going on over there? *Several water strider girls wearing modified ballerina dresses step onto the lake and begin to skate gracefully on the water around the boat* What’s going on? *Wendy comes back with armfuls of candy*
  134. W: Ah! The lake dancers have started their show!
  135. BE: Lake Dancers? So that’s what they’re called. What do you mean by show?
  136. W: They’re the entertainment for our trip. They’re going to dance around the boat for us!
  137. BE: Cool! So Wendy, is there any reason why all you brought to eat was candy?
  138. W: W-what do you mean?
  139. BE: Well~ you’ve got so much candy I was wondering if you had a bit of a sweet tooth~.
  140. W: N-no I don’t!
  141. BE: Hehe don’t worry about it Wendy. I’m just giving you a hard time. *Blindeyes grabs a chocolate bar, and unwraps it so that he can eat it* You’ve got a good selection of candy here. Actually, it looks like we’ve got pretty similar tastes in sweets.
  142. W: O-ooh! *Wendy begins to blush*
  143. BE: Hm? Are you doing ok? You’re getting a little red there.
  144. W: I-I-I… I forgot the drinks! I-I b-better go get them! *Wendy hurries off*
  145. BE: Ok? *Blindeyes turns to watch the lake dancers as he waits for Wendy to come back* Wow. They’re pretty good. Not as good as the aspara… No, just as good? I can see them being as good as dancing as the aspara. It’d be really cool if we could get some aspara dancing on a floating platform while some lake dancers dance around the platform. *a particularly cute lake dancer begins to dance in front of Blindeyes* Oho! Isn’t she a cutie~! I wonder if I can have a chat with her later. *the cute lake dancer suddenly trips over a log, and falls into the water* Pfft! Hahahahaha! Oh wow! That was hilarious!
  146. W: What’s so funny?
  147. BE: That lake dancer fell into the river!
  148. W: Really? That doesn’t seem likely. They’re usually really graceful.
  149. BE: Well she gracefully *Blindeyes points to the lake dancer, only to find that she’s glaring at him angrily. She then drags her thumb across her neck without breaking eye contact* impressed me with her amazing choreography!
  150. W: Oh! Well I’m glad you like them!
  151. BE: Y-yeah… *Blindeyes then nervously looks towards the lake dancer, who smiles deviously*
  152.  
  153. Meetings on the Road
  154. After the boat ride, Blindeyes and Wendy buy some hiking and camping gear, and they begin to hike down a wooded path.
  155. W: Blindeyes?
  156. BE: Yes Wendy?
  157. W: I know you wanted to go see the Crystal Plinth…
  158. BE: Of course! How could I come to Praxis, and not check out the city that formed around the school founded by Eiraiha and…? What’s her name? I know she’s a bovitauride.
  159. W: You mean Lady Clover Meadlowry?
  160. BE: Yeah that’s the one!
  161. W: Well I get why you’d like to visit it, but why do we have to walk all the way there?!
  162. BE: Well I thought heading there was kind of like a pilgrimage, so I figured why not! Besides, think of all the neat stuff we’ll be able to with all the money we saved on the bus tickets!
  163. W: But we spent all that money on this hiking equipment!
  164. BE: Details!
  165. W: *Wendy sighs* I’m too tired for this…
  166. BE: Tired already?
  167. W: Yes…
  168. BE: Oh. Would you be able to make it to that boulder? *Blindeyes pointed towards a large boulder up ahead*
  169. W: Maybe.
  170. BE: Well we can rest for a bit when we reach it. How’s that sound?
  171. W: Ok~! *they continue to walk, but don’t seem to be getting any closer* Is it me, or is that boulder getting farther away?
  172. BE: No, it’s not just you… Let’s go check it out. *Blindeyes suddenly picks up Wendy*
  173. W: WAH! What are you doing?!
  174. BE: We’re going to jog for a little bit. *Blindeyes begins to run towards the boulder*
  175. W: WAAAAAAH!!!! *as Blindeyes got closer to the boulder, they realized that it was actually an ureonggaksi’s shell*
  176. Ureonggaksi: Hello there.
  177. Ureonggaksi’s Husband: Was there anything we could help you with?
  178. BE: Oh sorry. We thought your wife was a boulder. Wendy here was getting tired, so we were going to take a break when we reached you.
  179. W: Uwaa…
  180. UH: She certainly looks exhausted.
  181. U: Would she like to ride on my shell for a bit?
  182. BE: You’d let her do that? Thanks! So how about it Wendy?
  183. W: T-thank you… *Blindeyes helps Wendy climb onto the ureonggaksi’s shell before they continue on their way*
  184. U: So are you two heading towards Crystal Plinth?
  185. BE: We are actually. How’d you know?
  186. UH: Well this path is the quickest hiking route to get there. Any particular reason as to why you’re going?
  187. BE: Not really. I hear it’s a pretty good tourist trap.
  188. U: Well it does get its fair share of tourists.
  189. BE: So what about you? Why are you heading to the Crystal Plinth?
  190. UH: It’s actually where we first met!
  191. U: We try to go back once a year for our anniversary.
  192. BE: That’s pretty cool. Hey Wendy, are you feeling better?
  193. W: A little bit.
  194. BE: Think you can start hiking again.
  195. W: No…
  196. BE: Alright. Thanks for letting us travel with you by the way. We really didn’t want to make trouble for you.
  197. U: It’s no trouble at all!
  198. BE: Really?
  199. U: Of course! Besides, travellers need to help each other out on the road.
  200. UH: I just hope you weren’t in too much of a hurry. We don’t exactly move too quickly.
  201. BE: That’s fine. I don’t mind moving at a snail’s pace.
  202. U: … Did you just?
  203. UH: You should see us in the morning then! She gets pretty sluggish after eating so much for breakfast!
  204. U: What? No…
  205. W: Could you both stop that! You’re upsetting her! You’re both lucky she just doesn’t slug you in the face! Oops!
  206. U: Enough! *the ureonggaksi retreats into her shell. Wendy manages to jump off of her shell before spikes burst out of it*
  207. UH: Oh this isn’t good… *the ureonggaksi begins rolling away* Oh shit! Honey! Come back! *the ureonggaksi’s husband begins running after his wife* WAIT!
  208. BE: Well… That was different…
  209. W: Yup…
  210. BE: Still tired?
  211. W: Yup…
  212. BE: Alright. Jump on my back, and I’ll carry you until you feel up to walking again.
  213. W: Thank you.
  214.  
  215. Cup Bearer
  216. Blindeyes and Wendy arrive at the Crystal Plinth.
  217. BE: Ooooo! Can you feel it Wendy?
  218. W: Feel what?
  219. BE: The history! This place is just seeped with history! You can just sense the fact important, history changing things happened here!
  220. W: Or could the heat be getting to you?
  221. BE: That may also explain this sensation.
  222. W: But you’re not entirely wrong. This place is a culturally significant area for the Lands of the Gentle Flame.
  223. BE: Wow! *Blindeyes notices a bunch of children with swam-like wings attached to their hips in a clearing helping people out* Hm? Angels?
  224. W: Surprised? Don’t you have celestial beings back where you’re from?
  225. BE: Well yeah, but the only ones around where I live have “fallen”. I’ve never seen pure angels before.
  226. W: That’s interesting… They’re pretty cute aren’t they?
  227. BE: I know! They looks so innocent. I kind of want to… Corrupt them…
  228. W: NO!
  229. BE: What?
  230. W: Bad Blindeyes! Bad!
  231. BE: But that’s what you do to innocent angels!
  232. W: NORMAL PEOPLE DON’T CORRUPT THE INNOCENT!
  233. ???: And those girls aren’t angels.
  234. BE+W: BWAH! *Blindeyes and Wendy freak out, and turn to see an older blonde woman with swan-like wings on her hips wearing silver armor*
  235. BE: W-what?
  236. Valkyrie: They’re not angels. They’re valkyriar like me.
  237. BE: Valkyriar? You mean Valkyries?
  238. V: The proper term for multiple Valkyrie is Valkyriar.
  239. W: S-sorry!
  240. V: That’s fine. That’s part of the reason we’re here. To help teach everyone about our proud heritage.
  241. BE: Only a part of it?
  242. V: Yes. These young ones are here to learn how to better serve as a cupbearer. Normally they would already be serving someone, but since we are in times of peace we are able to let them learn their future duties while their still young.
  243. W: If that’s the case, could you be able to point us to a tourist booth? I’m not as familiar with this area as I’d like to be.
  244. V: It’s not too far away. I can take you there.
  245. W: Thanks! Now Blindeyes, be a good boy and wait for me here.
  246. BE: Why can’t I just come with you?
  247. W: If Mrs. Valkyr-
  248. V: Miss.
  249. W: Sorry! If Ms. Valkyrie brings me to the tourist booth, who’s going to watch the little Valkyriar?
  250. BE: … Good point… Just hurry back please.
  251. V: Don’t worry, we’ll be back before you notice! *Wendy and the Valkyrie leave, and Blindeyes watches over the young valkyriar as they do their best to help people. However he notices that one of the younger girls is having issues talking to people. Blindeyes then grumbles a bit before approaching her*
  252. BE: Hi there. Is anything the matter?
  253. Young Valkyrie: …
  254. BE: Don’t look so scared kiddo, I’m here to help.
  255. YV: … ary…
  256. BE: What was that?
  257. YV: E-everyone’s so scary..! I-I don’t know If I’ll ever be able to help anyone… I’m such a terrible cupbearer…
  258. BE: Don’t say that kiddo… How about you try practising with me?
  259. YV: With you?
  260. BE: Yeah! We can treat it like a game or something. So what do you say?
  261. YV: O-ok!
  262. BE: Alright! Now just let me get into character. Egads! I have suddenly been overtaken by a terrible thirst! What can be done to end my suffering?!
  263. YV: Ah! Good sir! Perhaps I may be of as-ass-assistance?
  264. BE: I thank thee lovely child, but how would you be able to assist me?
  265. YV: This cup is filled with the most delicious of juices! Perhaps it would be enough to sate your thirst? *the young Valkyrie offers her cup*
  266. BE: Why thank you sweet child! *Blindeyes takes the cup and drinks from it* Oh my! This is the best juice I’ve ever had! It must have been made with the greatest of grapes! Thank you child, for you have saved me in my darkest hour! You have my eternal gratitude! *the young Valkyrie smiles* HNNNNG! *Blindeyes grabs at his chest and collapses*
  267. YV: MISTER! *Wendy and the adult Valkyrie run up to Blindeyes and the young Valkyrie as she begins to cry*
  268. W: Blindeyes! What happened?!
  269. YV: *sniff* I-I don’t know! He was helping me, then he fell over, and I don’t know why!
  270. W: HNNNNG! *Wendy grabs at her chest and collapses*
  271. YV: W-what’s going on?!
  272. V: It seems they’re suffering from a moe overdose.
  273. YV: A what?
  274. V: A moe overdose. It’s caused by an overexposure to adorable things, and can cause a rise in blood sugar levels and heart attacks. Thankfully it doesn’t seem to have been fatal.
  275. YV: T-that’s good…
  276. V: You should be proud young one. There are several valkyriar who dream of being able to incapacitate enemies with such ease! You’ll be a fine Valkyrie one day!
  277. YV: T-thank you!
  278. V: And then there’s this Blindeyes. Not only did he risk death by moe overdose to aid you, but he also carried this Wendy on his back when she became too tired to walk. I first took him for a fool, but perhaps deep down he does have a warrior’s heart. Interesting…
  279.  
  280. Love at First Sight
  281. Blindeyes and Wendy walk into a bar and grill, and are shown to a booth that had a good view of the bar. After they eat, they sit back and talk for a bit.
  282. BE: Man that was good!
  283. W: That Valkyrie was right! That was the best hamburger I’ve ever had.
  284. BE: If not, it got pretty close.
  285. W: So what do you want to do tonight?
  286. BE: I don’t know… I didn’t really have anything planned. Does that Valkyrie look familiar? *Blindeyes points to a Valkyrie hiding behind a menu at the bar*
  287. W: That one? Why?
  288. BE: She’s been starring at us since we got here, but I haven’t been able to get a good look at her.
  289. W: Really? That’s a little creepy…
  290. BE: A little bit, but I can’t say that I’m not kind of used to stalkers by now. *Blindeyes goes back to watching the Valkyrie, and he spits his drink when he spots a foot tall woman with black velvety wings and breasts that could put a bovitauride or a holstaur to shame if she were the same size* H-holy crap!
  291. W: What is it?!
  292. BE: That fairy has the biggest breasts I’ve ever seen! On a fairy at least!
  293. W: She’s not a fairy, she’s a celestial called amoris. They’re also called matchmaking angels.
  294. BE: Really. I think I’m going to go talk to her.
  295. W: I thought you were interested in mamonme?
  296. BE: I am, but I can be interested in celestials too.
  297. W: It’s because of her boobs right?
  298. BE: Totally because of her boobs. Do you want me to get you something from the bar?
  299. W: No… I’ll just go to our hotel room.
  300. BE: Alright. I’ll see you later then!
  301. W: Bye! *Wendy leaves, and Blindeyes makes his way to the bar. He sits next to the amoris*
  302. BE: Hello!
  303. Amoris: Hi? How can I help you?
  304. BE: I heard that you’re one of those matchmaking angels.
  305. A: Sorry buddy. I’d love to help you with your love life, but I’m off the clock.
  306. BE: Oh no, no, no, no, and no! I don’t need your help, I just wanted to talk to you!
  307. A: Really?
  308. BE: Yeah! I’ve never seen a celestial being quite like you before, and I wanted to learn about you.
  309. A: You’re interested in my breasts right?
  310. BE: Am I really that easy to read?
  311. A: I’m afraid so.
  312. BE: Damn…
  313. A: So what did you want to know?
  314. BE: Uh… I don’t know… Part of me didn’t think you’d want to talk to me.
  315. A: We’re a little friendlier than that.
  316. BE: I see that. Um… How… Do you like… Your breasts?
  317. A: Going straight for that one?
  318. BE: Sorry. I panicked.
  319. A: That’s fine. If I have to be honest, they’re kind of a pain.
  320. BE: Oh?
  321. A: Yeah… Arxulus, the god that created us amori, thought it was a good idea to make our breasts grow whenever we manage to get people to fall in love.
  322. BE: So I guess you’ve been pretty successful.
  323. A: You better believe it buster! Unfortunately they’re hard to deal with when they start getting this big. I might need to retire soon. If I don’t I won’t be able move anymore!
  324. BE: That’s crazy!
  325. A: Do you have too many more questions? I’m going to be meeting some friends soon.
  326. BE: Really? We can stop here if you want.
  327. A: No, no! That’s ok. *another amoris flies up to the two of them*
  328. Amoris #2: Hey June! When did you get a boyfriend?
  329. A: H-he’s not my boyfriend April! He’s just someone who was interested in us amori!
  330. A2: It’s the breasts, isn’t it?
  331. BE: Ok, I think this joke has run its course… *a man approaches the group*
  332. Man: I hope I can join this party.
  333. A: John! How long have you been here?
  334. John: I just got here.
  335. A: Well it’s about time! Now let’s get some introductions done! This is… I don’t actually know his name. We just met.
  336. BE: You can call me Blindeyes.
  337. V: Nice to meet you.
  338. A: And this is April. She’s my friend from work.
  339. J: Hello.
  340. A2: H-h-h-h-hello… *the April begins to blush, and averts her gaze*
  341. A: Wait… Nonononono! *the June glows before her breasts grow. Her shirt fights to survive, but her breasts quickly burst out, sending little buttons everywhere*
  342. J: OW!
  343. BE: MY EYES!
  344. A2: A-are you ok? Do you need my help?
  345. J: S-sure. *the amoris begins to heal John*
  346. A: What about you Blindeyes? Are you ok?
  347. BE: I think so… It hurts, but I don’t think it’s anything that booze can’t fix!
  348. A: Then bring on the booze bartender!
  349.  
  350. The Kidnapping
  351. After spending the better part of a night drinking with his new friends, Blindeyes staggers out of the bar and grill. He stumbles a bit before he begins to make his way back to his hotel. He is completely unaware of the trio following behind him.
  352. Stalker #1: Ooo! We’re going to get in so much trouble!
  353. Stalker #2: N-no we’re n-not! W-we’ll only g-get in t-trouble if we g-get c-c-caught!
  354. Stalker #3: Q-quiet! H-he m-might notice us if w-were too loud!
  355. BE: Oh shiiiiit~! I feel so drunk that I doubt I’d notice anyone following me, let alone three~!
  356. S3: K-keep quiet anyway! *the trio continues to follow Blindeyes until they manage to work up the courage to throw a bag over his head, and drag him off into the night. When they take off the bag, Blindeyes finds himself being held over a pool by a couple lake dancers, while a third stands in front of him*
  357. BE: What the hell..? Where am I? Is… Is this a pool?
  358. Lake Dancer #1: This is indeed a pool, but it may also become your watery grave. Whether it does depends on you.
  359. BE: Ah crap…
  360. Lake Dancer #2: It looks like he knows his place boss.
  361. Lake Dancer #3: I love quick learners!
  362. LD1: So do I. So mister Blindeyes, do you know why you’re here?
  363. BE: I owe you money?
  364. LD1: No… Try harder.
  365. BE: Wait… You’re the lake dancer that fell into the river! *the underling lake dancers begin to giggle until their boss glares at them with a blush*
  366. LD1: Good, so you do remember me. Now you seeing me fall into the water is a bit of a problem. I’m very proud of my dancing, and I would rather that no one knows that I ever screw up.
  367. BE: So you’re going to kill me because you’re embarrassed? Don’t you think that’s a little excessive?
  368. LD1: No.
  369. LD2: Of course not.
  370. LD3: Why would it be?
  371. BE: Oh… Well… I’m sure that the police will find my body tomorrow, arrest you, and throw you into prison.
  372. LD1: Are you sure about that?
  373. BE: Not as much as I was before you asked that question…
  374. LD1: My parents are high ranking members of the Lake Dancer Mafia, so I wouldn’t be going to jail even if I killed you in the police station.
  375. BE: Ah crap…
  376. LD1: However it turns out that my little sister is a fan of yours, and would be heartbroken if you would happen to die. So I have a proposition for you.
  377. BE: I’m listening.
  378. LD1: Be my husband.
  379. BE: … Ok, I think I might misheard you. Can you say that again?
  380. LD1: I want you to marry me. I have recently turned nineteen, and my parents have been pestering me about getting a boyfriend. So if you marry me you’ll get my parents off my back, make my sister very happy, I get to be a bride, and you get to live.
  381. LD2: So what do you say?
  382. LD3: Are you hearing wedding bells, or fish?
  383. BE: First of all, this is a pool. There shouldn’t be any fish in it. Second: you’re not really giving me a choice. And third: that sounds like a dumb reason to get married. Wouldn’t you want to marry someone you at least know?
  384. LD1: Are you trying to imply that I’m bad with men because I went to an all girl’s dance academy, and that I’m only doing this because I’m lonely but I can’t work up the nerve to ask someone to date me?!
  385. BE: No… *the lake dancer realises what she said, and begins to blush* Did you..?
  386. LD1: N-no! I…
  387. LD2: Don’t lose your cool Anya!
  388. LD3: You can do it! Then you can do it all night long!
  389. LD1: R-right! I-it doesn’t matter why I want to marry you. I decided that you’ll be the one to marry after you saw me trip, so make your choice! Marriage, or…
  390. Valkyrie: Unhand him villains! *a Valkyrie flies down from the heavens and charges at the group*
  391. LD3: A-a Valkyrie!
  392. LD2: What do we do?!
  393. LD1: RUN! *the lake dancers drop Blindeyes, and try to run away. The Valkyrie quickly grabs Blindeyes before he drowns*
  394. V: Are you ok Blindeyes?
  395. BE: Yeah! Thanks to you! Hey, you’re that Valkyrie from before!
  396. V: Yes, and I’d like to thank you again for watching my students.
  397. BE: You’re welcome, but weren’t you at the restaurant? *the Valkyrie averts her eyes, and blushes*
  398. V: I-I t-think you must be mistaken.
  399. BE: Really? I could have sworn that you were watching me at the restaurant… *the Valkyrie blushes even more*
  400. V: Y-you’re m-mistaken…
  401. BE: Alright… Wouldn’t be the first time I guess. But then how did you find me?
  402. V: I-I was just… F-flying around! At night. F-for some reason… *the Valkyrie carries Blindeyes back to land, and sets him down gently*
  403. BE: Regardless, thanks for saving me!
  404. LD2: You have to jump boss! *Blindeyes and the Valkyrie look over, and find them trying, and failing, to jump over a fence*
  405. LD1: I-I’m trying, but it’s so different than jumping on the water!
  406. LD3: You can do it boss!
  407. LD2: Oh no! They’re coming!
  408. V: You foul cretins! Did you think I’d let you three get away after what you’ve done to MY Blindeyes?!
  409. BE: Your Blindeyes?
  410. V: D-d-did you t-think I’d let you three get away after what you’ve done to my friend! *the lake dancers stop trying to flee, and cower in fear*
  411. LD1: P-please don’t hurt us!
  412. LD2: W-we j-just wanted to scare him!
  413. LD3: W-we w-weren’t going t-to actually hurt him!
  414. V: And why would that warrant my mercy?
  415. LD1+2+3: EEEEK! WE’RE SORRY! WE WON’T DO IT AGAIN!
  416. V: Yes, you won’t do it ever again. Especially after I’m done with you! *the lake dancers begin to cry*
  417. BE: Ah geez… Let’s just let them go…
  418. V: What?! Why would we let them go after what they’ve done to you?!
  419. BE: I know it seems stupid, but I think they’re telling the truth when they say that they’re not going to do anything like this again. So let’s just let them go with a warning this time.
  420. V: Very well. You three should thank this man, and his gentle warrior’s heart!
  421. LD1+2+3: T-thank you mister Blindeyes!
  422. BE: Actually if you want to thank me, could you give me your phone number?
  423. V+LD1+2+3: WHAT?!
  424. BE: Well… This might sound silly, but I was really impressed by that dancing I saw back on the boat. You know, besides the fall. So I was thinking about getting in contact with a guy who knows a guy who could set up a big dance thing.
  425. LD1: Really?
  426. BE: Yeah. I was thinking of having some aspara dancing on a platform on the water, while some lake dancers dance around the platform. Maybe we could get some otohime do some synchronized swimming/dancing too.
  427. LD1: You’d try to get that set up for us?
  428. BE: I’d try. So can I have your number? That way I can get a hold of you when things start gaining traction.
  429. LD1: Of course! *Blindeyes hands the lead lake dancer his cellphone, and she enters her phone number. After they say their goodbyes, the Valkyrie escorts Blindeyes back to his hotel. After hearing their story, a worried Wendy insisted on sleeping in Blindeyes’ bed*
  430.  
  431. A Load of Bull
  432. Wendy and Blindeyes are riding the bus on their way to the next town.
  433. Blindeyes: Man… Now that I think about it, last night was kind of crazy.
  434. Wendy: You can say that again… That Valkyrie just refused to leave until you gave her your cell number… What brought that on anyway?
  435. BE: She kept saying something about being able to call her in emergencies, but I have a feeling that it might have had something to do with me giving my number to those lake dancers. And that amoris.
  436. W: …
  437. BE: What?
  438. W: C-can I have your phone number?
  439. BE: Oh?
  440. W: I-it’s just that I-I’m your t-tour guide. W-what if we need to g-get a hold of each other?
  441. BE: You’re right! I should have gotten your number first! Let me see your phone. *Wendy hands her cell phone to Blindeyes, who enters his contact information into the devise. When he’s done he hands the phone back to Wendy* There you go.
  442. W: T-thank you! (Yay!) *they continue to talk until the bus comes to a stop* This is us~! Let’s go~!
  443. BE: You’re in a good mood all of a sudden.
  444. W: Really? I haven’t noticed. *Wendy giggles as they get off the bus*
  445. BE: So what do we do now?
  446. W: I need go the tourist booth, but you can stay here and wait for me.
  447. BE: Alright then. Stay out of trouble!
  448. W: You too! *Wendy giggles to herself before skipping off towards the tourist booth*
  449. BE: Hmm… Now what to do..? What to do..? *Blindeyes spots a trio of muscular, shaggy furred cow women wearing animal pelts and bronze chains* They couldn’t be… *Blindeyes approached the trio*
  450. Cow Woman #1: And so I slammed her into the table, and that was all she wrote. *all three cow women laughed*
  451. BE: Hello!
  452. Cow Woman #2: Hello? How can we help you?
  453. BE: Well I’m not from around here, and I’ve been kind of interested in meeting mamonme.
  454. Cow Woman #3: And?
  455. BE: And… Well this is kind of embarrassing, but I’ve been hoping to meet ladies like you.
  456. CW1: You hear that Beth?
  457. CW2: He’s interested in us. If you play your cards right you might finally bag yourself a man! *two of the cow women begin to laugh, and Beth groans*
  458. Beth: Can you two just stop? It isn’t funny anymore!
  459. CW1: Of course it is!
  460. CW2: And besides, what kind of big sister would I be if I didn’t tease you a little bit?
  461. BE: You’re sisters? That’s cool! Could you tell me what a bovitauride family is like?
  462. B: Bovitauride? We’re no- *Beth’s sister covers her mouth, and pulls her to the side*
  463. CW1: Excuse us for a minute!
  464. BE: O-ok..?
  465. B: What’s that for?!
  466. CW2: C’mon sis! You really need to smarten up if you want to bag this one!
  467. CW1: Yeah! It’s not every day a guy just walks up to you and says he’s interested!
  468. B: But he’s interested in bovitaurides! We’re minotaurides!
  469. Minotauride #2: So what if he’s an idiot. Just fool him until you can make him yours!
  470. Minotauride #1: All you have to do is wait for your chance to knock him to the ground, and ride him until he doesn’t care what you are.
  471. B: … He is kind of good looking. In a goofy kind of way.
  472. M1: Alright! Let’s do this!
  473. B: So mister..?
  474. BE: Blindeyes.
  475. B: What would you like to know about us… Bovitaurides?
  476. BE: Well first of all, I couldn’t help but notice how fit you gals were.
  477. M2: You did some research on us?
  478. M1: I bet it’s because of the boobs.
  479. BE: Dear God… It’s becoming a running gag now…
  480. B: Anyway, we just happen to be more muscular than regular bovitauride.
  481. BE: Really? Is it because you’re naturally like that, or did you exercise?
  482. M1: Exercise. Totally exercise.
  483. M2: Yeah! You only get a bod like this by lifting!
  484. B: Want to touch them? *Beth motions towards her abs*
  485. BE: T-touch them? Y-you mean your abs?
  486. B: Yeah. So what do you say?
  487. BE: S-sure. *Blindeyes walks up to Beth, and kneels down to feel her abs* Oh wow…
  488. M2: Impressed?
  489. BE: Very.
  490. M1: Turned on?
  491. BE: Not quite. I don’t mind a bit of muscle, but it’s not really a turn on. But these feel really nice!
  492. B: T-thanks!
  493. W: Blindeyes? What are you doing? *Blindeyes turns to see Wendy looking at him curiously*
  494. BE: Hey Wendy. I know this looks a little weird, but I was talking to these bovitaurides. And she offered to let me touch her abs, and they feel so cool!
  495. B: Oh~!
  496. W: But Blindeyes… Those are minotaurides.
  497. BE: Minotaurides?
  498. W: Yeah. They share a lot of characteristics, but they’re pretty different.
  499. BE: How so?
  500. M1: We’ve got more muscles!
  501. M2: We’re born fighters!
  502. M1: Bovitaurides are way softer than us!
  503. M1: And their boobs are bigger.
  504. BE: Why does it always come back to that? I mean it’s not like I hate boobs, but…
  505. W: Why are you still rubbing her abs?
  506. BE: I’m what? *Blindeyes realizes he’s been rubbing Beth’s abs* Oh…
  507. B: He doesn’t have to stop if he doesn’t want to.
  508. W: B-but we really need to g-get going…
  509. B: So you’re going to keep trying to interfere huh? *Beth grabs Blindeyes, and tosses him to the other minotauride* You’re a cute kid. I’d rather not have to hurt you, so you should just skedaddle.
  510. M2: Yeah beat it brat!
  511. M1: You can’t stop true love! *she pulls out Blindeyes phone* Time to change his relationship status!
  512. W: B-but I’m his tour guide! I can’t just leave him behind!
  513. B: So you’re going to be stubborn then? So be it. *Beth cracks her knuckles* This won’t be a fight to brag about later, but I’ll do anything to keep my husband!
  514. ???: If that’s the case, then I’ll be your opponent! *a Valkyrie swoops down, and pulls Blindeyes from the grasp of the minotaurides. She lands in front of Wendy, and gently places him on the ground next to her* Are you two alright?
  515. W: Y-yes!
  516. BE: Thanks. But how did you know we were in trouble?
  517. V: I became concerned when I saw your relationship status update on Facebook.
  518. BE: Are you stalking me on Facebook?
  519. V: O-of course not! You accepted my friend request this morning!
  520. BE: I did?
  521. W: You don’t remember? Her name’s Sigrun.
  522. BE: Oh right! Sorry Sigrun, I didn’t recognize you since you have that weird symbol avatar.
  523. Sigrun: Don’t worry about it. Now allow me to deal with these ruffians, and escape!
  524. M2: HEY! I resemble that remark!
  525. M1: You’ll pay for that!
  526. B: How dare you get in the way of my happy married life?! I’ll pluck you like a turkey!
  527. S: I’d like to see you try!
  528. B: GRAAAA!
  529. S: AAAAAH! *Beth and Sigrun charge at each other as Blindeyes grabs Wendy, and runs off*
  530. W: Blindeyes! What are you doing?!
  531. BE: I’m getting the hell out of Dodge! Sigrun’s a battle hardened warrior! I’m sure we’d be distracting her if we stayed!
  532. W: But we can’t just leave her!
  533. BE: You’re right… Hey Sigrun!
  534. S: Yes?!
  535. BE: If you win I’ll buy you dinner!
  536. S: D-d-dinner?! L-like a d-d-date?!
  537. BE: Uh yeah sure.
  538. S: CONSIDER IT DONE!
  539. B: YOU WISH BITCH! THAT DATE’S MINE! *they begin fighting even harder*
  540. BE: Oh shi- She’ll be fine… I’m sure… Probably…
  541.  
  542. The Dancing Butterfly
  543. Blindeyes and Wendy are walking down the street as dusk falls.
  544. Blindeyes: So Sigrun said she was going to meet us somewhere around here?
  545. Wendy: Yes. There should be a fountain up ahead. It’s so nice of you to take her out for dinner!
  546. BE: Well she’s saved my bacon a few times now. I’d feel pretty bad if I didn’t do something to pay her back for all her help. Even though she seems to arrive at oddly convenient times…
  547. W: I’m sure you’re just imagining things.
  548. BE: Probably. *They eventually find the fountain, and see Sigrun and Beth standing next to it*
  549. Beth: It’s about time! How dare you make your wife wait for you?!
  550. Sigrun: You are not his wife!
  551. B: And you are?
  552. S: Eh?! N-n-no… I-I mean m-maybe?
  553. BE: Sorry if we’re late, but why are you here Beth?
  554. B: Because I’m not going to let this chance to go on a date slip by!
  555. W: B-b-but we’re just here for dinner.
  556. B: I’ll take what I can get! And I’ll sock anyone who gets in the way of that in the face!
  557. S: Typical minotauride. Always resorting to violence.
  558. B: You want to say that to my face?!
  559. BE: OK! Let’s head to the restaurant before we start fighting! Again!
  560. W: Agreed! *They all go to a restaurant, and they wait in line to be seated. Eventually a dark skinned butterfly woman with beautiful yellow wings daintily flies up to them*
  561. Polimana: Hey you guys~! I’m Goldie, and I’m going to be your waitress tonight~!
  562. BE: Oh wow…
  563. W: She’s a polimana Blindeyes. They’re beautiful butterfly women who enjoy being the life of the party!
  564. BE: I can see the beautiful part…
  565. G: Oh stop it~! You’ll embarrass me~!
  566. S: Yes.
  567. B: Stop it.
  568. G: Don’t worry girls~! I may flirt, but I’m not going to steal your boyfriend~!
  569. BE: I’m not their boyfriend.
  570. G: Really~? Maybe I’ll have to give it a shot then~! *Goldie laughs as she notices Blindeyes blush* So, a table for four right~? I know just the place~! Follow me~! *Goldie leads them to their table, and they proceed to have an enjoyable meal*
  571. BE: Urrg. That was so good… I ate so much I feel like I was punishing myself…
  572. B: That had to be the best steak I’ve ever had…
  573. S: Watching you eat was both disturbing, and intriguing.
  574. W: I hope they don’t mind the fact we ruined their tablecloth. *Goldie approaches the table*
  575. G: So how was everything~? Was it good~?
  576. BE: Everything was wonderful!
  577. S: My compliments to the chef!
  578. W: It was really yummy! *Beth belches loudly*
  579. G: Does anyone want dessert~? *everyone at the table flinches*
  580. BE: N-no… I think we’re good.
  581. G: Are you sure~? This place has a really good devil’s food cake~.
  582. S: Devil’s…
  583. B: Food…
  584. W: Cake…
  585. BE: As tempting as that sounds, I think we’ll have to decline.
  586. G: That’s too bad~. Hey, what are you guys doing later~?
  587. BE: I don’t have anything planned.
  588. W: I’m with him.
  589. B: I’m free.
  590. S: I-I was g-going to try spy- I-I-I-I don’t have anything to do either! Absolutely nothing!
  591. BE: Huh?
  592. G: So you’re free tonight then~? Would you guys be interested in going to a party with me~?
  593. BE: A p-party?
  594. G: Yeah~! I know this great nightclub close by~. You guys seem pretty cool, so I was wondering if you wanted to go with me~!
  595. BE: I don’t know…
  596. W: I think it sounds fun!
  597. B: Yeah! Let’s party!
  598. S: A chance at making drunken revelry with my Blindeyes?! Yes please!!
  599. BE: Your Blindeyes?
  600. S: I-I-I-I-I-I mean…
  601. BE: Alright. I guess we’re going.
  602. G: AWESOME~! I’ll be off in just a few minutes, so can you guys wait for me outside~?
  603. BE: Sure. *After Blindeyes pays for their meal, they wait for Goldie outside of the restaurant. Eventually the polimana walks out wearing a skin tight yellow dress*
  604. G: Thanks for waiting for me guys~! I hope you weren’t waiting for too long~!
  605. W: Nope, we’re good!
  606. G: Alright! Now follow me! *Goldie leads them to a nearby night club called “The Dancing Butterfly”. After waiting in line for a bit, they enter the club where the music is loud, dancing is manic, and the alcohol flows like water* Finally~! Let’s go hit the dancefloor~!
  607. B: YEAH! PARTY!
  608. S: I shall astound the masses with my warrior’s dance!
  609. BE: Alright. I’ll join you gals after I grab a couple drinks.
  610. W: D-do you want me t-to k-keep you company?
  611. BE: No that’s fine. I just need a few drinks in before I can get my funk on. *Blindeyes dances badly in place*
  612. W: But!
  613. BE: I’ll be fine Wendy. Go have fun!
  614. W: But!
  615. BE: Go! You are the dancing queen~. Young and sweet, you look preteen~. Dancing queen~! *Wendy giggles before following the rest of their group to the dancefloor. Blindeyes then makes his way to the bar, and orders a drink and sighs* Man I hate these places. It’s always so hot and crowded… *Blindeyes sips at his drink as he watches the crowd. Eventually a polimana with beautiful purple wings spots, and approaches him*
  616. Purple Polimana: Hey there. What’s up?
  617. BE: Hm? Oh just having a drink. You?
  618. PP: I’m taking a quick break from all the dancing I’ve been doing. Can I sit here?
  619. BE: Sure. *the polimana sits next to Blindeyes* You’re a little different than the other polimana I’ve met today.
  620. PP: I am? What’s she like?
  621. BE: She seemed really… Sunny.
  622. PP: So you’ve met a yellow winged polimana.
  623. BE: How’d you know what colour her wings were?
  624. PP: Our wings have different colours depending on our personalities. Polimana with yellow wings tend to be really upbeat, and sunny.
  625. BE: What about you?
  626. PP: Me? Well polimana like me tend to be creative and spontaneous!
  627. BE: Oh? What do you do?
  628. PP: I like to paint a bit.
  629. BE: That’s cool. I can’t do anything like that, but I do write a bit.
  630. PP: Really? That’s pretty cool too. *a polimana with scarlet red wings spots them, and approaches them*
  631. Red Polimana: Hey Violet. I’m glad you finally found yourself a boyfriend. And he looks so tasty too~.
  632. Violet: Shut up Scarlet! *Scarlet giggles*
  633. Scarlet: I wouldn’t even if you could make me.
  634. BE: So what kind of personalities do red polimana tend to have?
  635. V: Well they’re kind of… *a kaaiman approaches Violet*
  636. Kaaiman: Sorry to bother you, but could you tell me where you bought that dress?
  637. V: Oh sure! I found it at… *While Violet is distracted, Scarlet get close to Blindeyes*
  638. Sc: I can show you what kind of personality we red winged polimana have.
  639. BE: Couldn’t you just tell me?
  640. Sc: But where’s the fun in that? *Scarlet leads Blindeyes to the public bathrooms*
  641. BE: So why do we have to come all the way out here for you to show me your personality?
  642. Sc: Because then I can do this! *Scarlet kisses Blindeyes, and pushes him into one of the bathroom stalls. Blindeyes falls backward onto the toilet, and Scarlet closes the stall door before straddling him* We red polimana are lustful and passionate! So let’s have a little fun~!
  643. BE: I don’t know if thi- *Scarlet kisses Blindeyes to shut him up as she starts undoing his pants. Once she’s done, she stops kissing him so that she can slip onto the floor. She smiles as she starts giving Blindeyes a handjob* Guh! W-why are you doing this?
  644. Sc: Because you looked so bored! You’re supposed to have fun at a party, and I can’t think of anything more fun than sneaking off to have sex in the bathroom~! You’re getting so hard~! I can just about taste it! *the stall door is suddenly forced open* Geez you could have knocked first!
  645. S: Unhand my Blindeyes you scarlet whore.
  646. B: Didn’t anyone teach you that it’s rude to suck off a mamonme’s husband before she gets the chance to? *Beth cracks her knuckles*
  647. W: You better leave Blindeyes alone you big meanie!
  648. Sc: Oh poo… *Scarlet gets pulled out of the stall, and Blindeyes quickly gets out to stop the ensuing fight. After the dust settles, Goldie and Violet are busy apologizing for their friend Scarlet*
  649. G: OMG Scarlet~! I know you get the urge once in a while, but you can’t just drag a guy into the bathroom to have your way with him~!
  650. V: Honestly! Learn to keep it in your pants! You’re lucky Blindeyes was able to calm everyone down.
  651. BE: We’re just lucky that head pats and cooldown hugs are just as effective on mamonme and celestials as they are with mamono.
  652. B: That felt a lot better than I thought it would…
  653. S: *happy Valkyrie noises*
  654. W: C-c-could you p-p-pet my h-head again?
  655. BE: Sure thing. *Wendy coos as Blindeyes pet her head* This is an effective technique, although you need to be careful on who you use this on. Using it on someone like a lich will just annoy her, while doing it on a hellhound or an ushi-oni might just make things worse. Don’t ask how I know that.
  656. Sc: Well thank you for saving my ass. And the chance to tap it is still good lover~. *Goldie begins pushing Scarlet towards the dance floor*
  657. G: Geez~! If you have enough energy to act like that, then you have energy to dance~!
  658. Sc: Ok~!
  659. V: I’d like to apologize again for my friend. I should have kept a better eye on her.
  660. BE: It’s fine. At least you were able to find my friends so that they could save me.
  661. V: I know but…
  662. BE: Don’t worry about it. Besides I’d doubt I’d actually be able to stay angry at you even if I was.
  663. V: Why?
  664. BE: I can’t help it. Purple’s my favorite colour.
  665. V: W-what?! *Violet blushes as Blindeyes picks up Wendy*
  666. BE: It was nice to meet you gals, but I think it’s time for us to head back to our hotel.
  667. V: Uh… B-before you go… *Violet quickly kisses Blindeyes before flying off* Goodbye!
  668. BE: Yeah… Bye…
  669. S: Ah! May I have a kiss too!
  670. B: Back off feather duster! That kiss is mine!
  671. BE: Let’s hurry up and get out of here before they start fighting again…
  672. W: I agree… *Blindeyes and Wendy quietly leave the nightclub*
  673.  
  674. Music on the Beach
  675. Blindeyes, Wendy, Sigrun, and Beth are standing next to a bus getting ready to depart.
  676. Beth: Do you really have to go?
  677. Blindeyes: Sorry. I’d like to stay a little longer, but there’s still so much I’d like to see.
  678. B: And I can’t leave town because of work… Damn. Can I at least get a goodbye hug?
  679. BE: Sure! *Blindeyes hugs Beth, and she proceeds to pick him up. Sigrun pulls out her sword as the minotauride tries to carry him off*
  680. Sigrun: I suggest you think about what you’re going to do next very carefully.
  681. B: Tsk! Fine. *Beth gives Blindeyes a quick squeeze before letting him go* Spoil sport.
  682. S: Violent cow. *Sigrun turns to face Blindeyes* I must return to teach the young valkyriar. May I have a hug as well?
  683. BE: You’re not going to try carrying me off?
  684. S: O-of c-course not!
  685. BE: Alright. *Blindeyes hugs Sigrun* Take care of those kids Sigrun.
  686. S: I will. And I know we’ll see each other again.
  687. Wendy: It shouldn’t be too hard considering you copied down our itinerary. *Sigrun begins to tremble and blush* Oh. Was that supposed to be a secret?
  688. BE: A-anyway! We’ll keep in touch, and I’ll be sure to let you girls know when I’m back in town.
  689. B: You better, or I’m going to knock your lights out!
  690. BE: I believe it! So I’ll see you two later.
  691. W: Bye! *Blindeyes and Wendy enter the bus, and quickly finds their seats. After Blindeyes sits down, he grabs Wendy, and places her on his lap. Wendy blushes as they wave to Sigrun and Beth, who glare at her jealously. Wendy never leaves Blindeyes’ lap after the bus leaves, and they watch the scenery pass by them together. They eventually reach a town on the side of a lake, and exit the bus* Hurry up Blindeyes!
  692. BE: Trying… Legs are asleep… Cramp!
  693. W: C’mon! If we can check into our hotel, we can go to the beach right away!
  694. BE: A beach?
  695. W: Yeah! This town has one of the nicest lakeside beaches in Praxis!
  696. BE: Alright! *they quickly check in to their hotel, and they quickly get changed into their swimsuits. After a quick walk, they find themselves on beach with soft red sand looking at a pristine, clear lake* Holy crap…
  697. W: They say that this lake was blessed by a Goddess whose name has long been lost. That’s up for debate, but you can definitely see why people would say that.
  698. BE: Definitely.
  699. W: S-so Blindeyes…
  700. BE: Yeah?
  701. W: D-d- y-you want t-to go swimming? O-or sunbathing? O-or d-do you want to build sandcastle?
  702. ???: Or would you rather listen to me sing?
  703. BE: Huh? *Blindeyes turns around to see a harpy with striking lavender wings, wide hips, and scandalous clothing land next to them* Oh shit!
  704. ???+W: Huh?
  705. BE: It’s a siren! Cover your ears, and head for the hills! *Blindeyes picks Wendy up while trying to cover his ears*
  706. W: Blindeyes! BLINDEYES STOP! She’s not a siren!
  707. BE: What?
  708. W: She’s not a siren! She’s a mamonme called a lorelei!
  709. BE: … She’s not a siren?
  710. W: Yes!
  711. BE: Oh… Okay. *Blindeyes puts Wendy down, and turns back to the lorelei* Sorry abou- *they notice that the lorelei is fighting back tears* I’M SORRY! I’M REALLY, REALLY SORRY! I’D LOVE TO LISTEN TO YOU SING! I’M SORRY! *Blindeyes and Wendy eventually manage to calm the lorelei down* Feeling better?
  712. Lorelei: *Sniff* Yeah.
  713. BE: Good. Again I’m really sorry. The sirens back home can turn men into mindless drones with their singing, so you get used to being pretty cautious.
  714. L: Oh. Well we lorelei can do that too. In fact some people say that we got our species name from a legend where a woman lures *Blindeyes slowly begins to cover his ears* But we don’t do that anymore! Most of us just want to sing to make people happy!
  715. BE: I see. So you just wanted..?
  716. L: To sing for you. So can I?
  717. BE: I don’t know. Can you?
  718. L: What?
  719. BE: You just told me that you can control me with your song. Would you want to listen to someone sing after hearing them tell you that?
  720. L: N-n-no, I can’t! I mean I c-could, but! We don’t! We’re not!
  721. W: You’re being mean Blindeyes…
  722. BE: I know, but she’s just so fun to tease~.
  723. W: Could you at least stop before she starts crying again.
  724. BE: I was planning to. *Blindeyes walks up to the lorelei, and puts a hand on her trembling shoulder* I’d love to hear you sing.
  725. L: R-really?
  726. BE: Of course. *the lorelei wipes some tears from her eyes*
  727. L: Alright! Get ready for me to knock your socks off!
  728. BE: I’m looking forward to it! *Blindeyes sits on the beach while Wendy sits on his lap as the lorelei gets herself ready. She begins to sing once she’s ready, and everyone on the beach stops to listen to her. Once she’s done singing, everyone on the beach starts to applaud*
  729. L: Thank you! Thank you! *eventually the crowd goes back to what they were doing before* So how’d you like my singing?
  730. BE: It was ok.
  731. L: Ok? It was j-just ok?
  732. BE: Just kidding. It was amazing! I haven’t heard anything so beautiful for a long time!
  733. L; R-really?
  734. BE: Of course.
  735. W: Actually, I’m curious about something.
  736. L: About what?
  737. W: Sorry if this sounds rude, but you’re awfully self-conscious for a lorelei.
  738. L: I know… It’s just… I only left the nest, and moved here, but things aren’t going so well right now…
  739. W: Oh dear…
  740. L: I don’t think my singing’s that bad compared to other lorelei, but I’m having a hard time finding singing gigs.
  741. BE: I find that hard to believe considering how big that crowd was.
  742. L: It’s different when you’re trying to start a singing career. Sure I can draw a crowd, but so can every other lorelei. I need to do something to help differentiate myself, but I don’t know how yet…
  743. BE: That’s sounds pretty tough, but try to keep your chin up. I hear that the music industries pretty cutthroat, but it sounds like you’ve got the talent to make it. You just need to keep with it.
  744. L: Y-you really think so?
  745. BE: I can’t say for sure, but I’d bet money on you making it big one day.
  746. L: THANK YOU! *the lorelei jumps and kisses Blindeyes, and he accidentally grabs her butt as he tries to hold her up*
  747. BE: Huh?
  748. W: Grk!
  749. L: Just you wait! I’ll become the greatest singer ever! *the lorelei hugs Blindeyes before flying off*
  750. BE: What just happened? *he looks at his hand* She had a nice, soft ass…
  751. W: Blindeyes?
  752. BE: Yeah?
  753. W: C-c-can I-I have a k-k-k-k-kiss too? P-please? *Blindeyes grabs his chest*
  754. BE: Urk! *Blindeyes collapses onto the sand*
  755. W: Blindeyes! No! Not another moe overdose! *Wendy runs to Blindeyes’ side, and tries to shake him awake*
  756. BE: Gotcha! *Blindeyes, who has gotten used to Wendy’s moe levels, suddenly began to tickle Wendy, who breaks into giggle fits. They spend the rest of the day playing at the beach, and they can hear the lorelei singing in the distance*
  757.  
  758. Balm of Body and Soul
  759. The night was calm and cool, but that was no relief to Wendy, who had a bad sunburn after spending too much time in the sun.
  760. Wendy: I can’t believe I forgot to put on some sun screen… This stinks… *Blindeyes enter the hotel room*
  761. Blindeyes: Hey Wendy. How are you doing?
  762. W: I feel hot, and itchy, and everything hurts…
  763. BE: That bad huh… *Wendy nods her head as she sniffles* Well bad news: the front desk didn’t have any lotion to help with your burn. However it seems that there’s a pharmacy nearby that should still be open at this time, so I’ll just head out for a bit.
  764. W: Just don’t take too long…
  765. BE: Don’t worry. I’ll be back before you can say supercali… Superca… Supercalifuck…
  766. W: Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious?
  767. BE: … You know what. I’ll just go… *After Blindeyes leaves the room and gets directions from an overly flirtatious lamia, Blindeyes begins his search for the pharmacy. Along the way he looks at the sights of Sino Nomine, which is now canon in Praxian lore. However he spent too much time ogling the local mamonme and celestials in their swimwear, and became lost* Great… That’s just perfect. Now I’ll never get that lotion for Wendy… The lotion is like my life: nowhere to be seen, and probably significantly overpriced… Hm? *Blindeyes notices that he has found his way to what appears to be a pier with a shrine floating at the end of it* Is someone there? *He approaches the shrine, and finds a 12 foot tall woman hanging onto the floating shrine while eating the offerings. She has long, flowing golden brown hair that falls to the small of her back, golden eyes, gills along her chest, a shark-like fin protruding from the top of her head, and an eel-like tail that goes deep into the lake’s depths instead of legs* I don’t think you’re supposed to be eating that.
  768. ???: EEEEEEK! *the large woman dives back into the water, causing a huge splash which soaks Blindeyes*
  769. BE: Goddamn it… *the woman peeks out from under the water’s surface* Now I’m lost and wet…
  770. ???: You’re lost?
  771. BE: Yeah. I was heading to the pharmacy to get some lotion for a friend’s sunburn, but I’m not from here and I got lost. And I’m sure it’s closed by now too…
  772. ???: Oh dear…
  773. BE: I’m sorry. I forgot to introduce myself. I’m Blindeyes.
  774. ???: Oh! H-hello Blindeyes. You can call me Sin.
  775. BE: So Sin, why are you eating the shrine’s offering? It seems kind of rude to be eating food people put out for the lake’s goddess.
  776. Sin: W-well y-you see… I-I… Sorry… I live in the lake, and I come up here once in a while so eat something other than fish.
  777. BE: Hmm. I guess that’s fine. Just try not to get caught doing it. I doubt the locals would be happy to find someone messing with their offerings.
  778. S: I-I’ll k-keep that in mind!
  779. BE: … Hey, do you mind if I sit down?
  780. S: O-oh no. G-go ahead. *Blindeyes sits next to Sin, and looks her over* W-why are you looking at me l-like that?
  781. BE: Sorry, but part of the reason I came here was to meet mamonme. And you’re really interesting.
  782. S: Y-you’re just saying that…
  783. BE: No I really mean it. For example, you’re the biggest mamonme I’ve met so far!
  784. S: My boobs aren’t that big!
  785. BE: Huh?
  786. S: Oh! Y-you were t-talking about my size, not my… Anyway you’re wrong about me. I’m not a mamonme.
  787. BE: Really? Then are you some kind of aquatic celestial?
  788. S: N-not really…
  789. BE: Then what are you? Is there another kind of being in Praxis that I don’t know about?
  790. S: S-sorry… I j-just d-don’t really like talking about myself…. It’s… Embarrassing…
  791. BE: Oh! Sorry about that! I didn’t mean to make you uncomfortable!
  792. S: That’s ok. You’re just trying to be friendly.
  793. BE: Ah! And I almost forgot about Wendy’s sunburn! You wouldn’t happen to know if there’s any place around here that’ll sell lotion at this time of night.
  794. S: They’re probably all closed by now…
  795. BE: Dang…
  796. S: Can you wait here for a second?
  797. BE: Sure? *Sin smiles before diving back underwater. She comes back up after a couple of minutes with a glass jar filled with a clear slimy substance*
  798. S: Here. It’s not a lotion, but it should be just as effective.
  799. BE: Wow thanks! What do I owe you?
  800. S: Just go and help your Wendy friend.
  801. BE: Sin, you’re a peach! Take care of yourself! *Blindeyes takes the jar, and runs off*
  802. S: You too! (That was close! To think someone would catch me eating my offerings! I’ll have to be more careful in the future. At least he didn’t start worshipping me. That would have been so embarrassing!) *the goddess Sin returns to her home at the bottom of the lake, while Blindeyes remembers that he was still lost. He managed to get back to his hotel room a few hours later, where he had to calm down a frantic Wendy. She gave him a harsh lecture, and made him massage her using the substance in the jar, which cured her sunburn*
  803.  
  804. Shivering Timbers
  805. The next day, a now tanned Wendy runs around town in an attempt to find Blindeyes. She eventually finds him at Sino Nomine’s floating shrine with a fruit basket.
  806. Wendy: Blindeyes! What are you doing out here?
  807. Blindeyes: Hey Wendy. I was just dropping off an offering for the goddess.
  808. W: Oh. That’s nice, but why a fruit basket?
  809. BE: I just figured she’d like something besides fish for once.
  810. W: Ok… Could you hurry up a bit though? We’re going to miss our boat if you take too long!
  811. BE: Alright. *Blindeyes places the fruit basket in front of the shrine* Thanks for the help Sin.
  812. W: Who’s Sin?
  813. BE: Someone who helped me out last night.
  814. W: Then why are you thanking her instead of the goddess?
  815. BE: No reason!
  816. W: Alright… Can we go now then?
  817. BE: Of course. *Blindeyes follows Wendy to the docks, and they approach a large ship that would looked like it should be sailing the Caribbean instead of a lake* What the heck? What’s up with this ship?
  818. W: I thought you’d prefer riding on this ship to our next destination.
  819. BE: Why? Does it look like I have a pirate fetish?
  820. W: N-no! I-It’s just… Why don’t we get aboard to find out?
  821. BE: Alright. *Blindeyes follows Wendy onboard the ship. There they find a girl slightly taller than Wendy dressed like a pirate manning the helm*
  822. ???: AHOY! Are all ye land lubbers ready to set sail? We be pulling anchor in ten minutes, so make sure ye scallywags are fully prepared for an adventure!
  823. BE: … *Blindeyes tries to jump into the lake, but Wendy fights to keep in on the ship*
  824. W: DON’T DO IT BLINDEYE! IT’S NOT THAT BAD! BLINDEYES! *Some of the ship’s rigging grabs Blindeyes, and pulls him back to safety. The pirate girl rushes over*
  825. ???: What be all this commotion about?
  826. BE: Sorry captain, but I don’t think I can make this voyage. Just let me end it now.
  827. ???: What kind of lily livered codfish talk is this?
  828. W: Yeah! What’s gotten into you?
  829. BE: I can’t spend so long with someone who un-ironically talks like a pirate all the time. Not after that time with the Scylla…
  830. ???: Is that all? Fine, no more talking like a pirate.
  831. W: I’m sorry miss phantom ship. Blindeyes is usually pretty nice, but he’s being really naughty today.
  832. BE: Phantom ship?
  833. Phantom Ship: It’s fine. I just talk like that to entertain the passengers. I can knock it off while I’m talking to you two.
  834. W: Thank you. You’re being way too kind.
  835. PS: Don’t mention it.
  836. BE: So you’re a mamonme then.
  837. PS: Yep!
  838. BE: So since you’re a phantom ship, that means you’re…
  839. PS: That’s right! I’m the ship itself. Well if you’re getting technical I’m the ship’s figurehead, but that’s just a small part of me.
  840. BE: So you’re like the manifestation of the ships conscious?
  841. PS: Something like that.
  842. BE: Interesting… *Blindeyes gets up, and walks to the railing*
  843. W: What are you up to Blindeyes? *Blindeyes starts tickling the railing*
  844. PS: Hahaha! S-stop that! My timbers are ticklish! Hahaha!
  845. BE: Very interesting… *Blindeyes stops tickling the ship, and the phantom ship tries to catch her breath*
  846. PS: Ah… Ah geez… I almost peed myself…
  847. BE: How would that work?
  848. W: Let’s not go there Blindeyes…
  849. PS: Besides it’s time for us to set sail. If you’re interesting in learning more about phantom ships we can talk later in the captains quarters.
  850. BE: Alright. See you later then. *Blindeyes and Wendy explore the ship as it sets sail, and watch the scenery as they leave the lake to travel up river. They eventually make their way to the captain’s quarters where they find the phantom ship sitting on a luxurious couch while drinking some ice cold mineral water*
  851. PS: Hmm. Now that’s some high quality H2O. Oh! You two made it! Come sit down, and I’ll get you some refreshments! *the phantom ship gets off her couch and heads to an equally luxurious table. She takes the large jug of mineral water, and pours a glass for Blindeyes and Wendy before joining them back on the couch* So how was everything? You two were inspecting me rather thoroughly.
  852. BE: You noticed?
  853. PS: This ship is my body, although having people look at it so closely is a little embarrassing…
  854. W: Ah! S-sorry! We didn’t mean to make you feel uncomfortable!
  855. PS: It wasn’t too bad. It was embarrassing, but I’m pretty flattered that you’re so interested in me.
  856. BE: Well there isn’t anything quite like you back home, so I can’t help but be a little curious captain. *the phantom ship grimaces*
  857. PS: Can you stop calling me that? I’m the ship, so I can’t really be the captain.
  858. BE: Sorry. I just assumed since I couldn’t really find someone like that on board.
  859. PS: That’s because I don’t have a captain. I’m looking for one, but I haven’t found anyone yet.
  860. BE: Oh… So what should we call you?
  861. PS: My friends all call me Rover.
  862. W: Rover?
  863. R: Yeah. My actual name is the Praxis Rover, so everyone just calls me Rover.
  864. BE: Right… Because you’re a ship…
  865. W: But that name’s not really cute. Can we call you Roe instead?
  866. R: Sure!
  867. BE: Alright. So Roe when you’re talking about finding a captain, is that something like finding a husband?
  868. R: Bingo! Ah~… To have a strong, wild pirate captain at my helm~. Sailing the seven seas in search of adventure and treasure~!
  869. W: Don’t you mean booty?
  870. R: I better have all the booty any man will ever need!
  871. BE: Hehe. Booty.
  872. W: Blindeyes! Stop being so immature!
  873. BE: Hey! Why am I getting in trouble for her joke?!
  874. R: …
  875. BE: What?
  876. R: Sorry, but all of this talking about captains has got me excited.
  877. BE: Oh?
  878. R: Yeah. Just the idea of having a big, strong, man ordering me around is getting me all wet.
  879. BE: I’m guessing you’re not talking about the fact that a large portion of you is underwater.
  880. R: So Blindeyes, have you ever thought about captaining a ship.
  881. BE: I’m just going to put out that I’m literally the opposite of a big, strong pirate captain. I can’t even swim, and I get really seasick.
  882. R: That’s fine. You’re not really my type, but I’m horny and you’re right here. A quick ride couldn’t hurt.
  883. BE: O-oh…
  884. W: W-what are you talking about?! Y-you can’t..!
  885. R: Don’t get your panties in a bunch! I’m not trying to steal your boyfriend.
  886. W: B-b-b-boyfriend?!
  887. R: I was hoping you’d join us.
  888. W: W-what..?
  889. R: I’ve got nothing against cute girls like you. *Roe slides up to Wendy* So how about we get started? I’m curious how far we can get before Blindeyes can’t keep his hands off of us.
  890. W: I don’t..! *Roe starts kissing Wendy. Wendy flinches in shock, but doesn’t struggle as the phantom ship starts stripping her* Ah~.
  891. R: You’re so cute. *Roe glances over at Blindeyes* Don’t you agree?
  892. BE: Obviously. Wendy’s adorable. *Wendy blushes, and tries to hide her face*
  893. W: Uuuuu..!
  894. R: I’m glad we agree! So get over here, and prove it!
  895. BE: …
  896. R: Aren’t you coming?
  897. BE: … No.
  898. R: What?
  899. BE: I may not be a ship’s captain, but I do know how to drive. And one of the things you need to remember is that the driver is in control, not the vehicle.
  900. R: O-oh..?
  901. BE: So I’m not going to let an oversized boat tell me what to do. *Blindeyes gently pushes Wendy and Roe over until Wendy is laying on her back and the phantom ship is on all fours on top of her.*
  902. R: Ah!
  903. W: W-we’re d-doing this? W-we’re really doing this?! *Blindeyes pulls down Roe’s pants to reveal her cute panties. He traces the damp spot on her crotch with his finger*
  904. R: Ah~! S-stop t-teasing me~! Please~!
  905. BE: I thought I told you not to tell me what to do.
  906. R: Ah~! *Blindeyes begins to massage Roe’s butt. He eventually gave her butt a sharp slap, and she came loudly* AAAAAAAAAHHHHHH~! *the ship shivered as its figure head collapses. Blindeyes manages to catch her before she crushes Wendy, and gently lays her onto her side*
  907. W: W-what happened?
  908. BE: Well, judging by our conversation, Roe was getting really frustrated sexually. I remembered how she was talking about having a captain controlling her and ordering her around was getting her excited, and I concluded that she was a masochist. I’m not really that good at being a dom, but it seems I was able to fake it well enough.
  909. W: S-so you weren’t actually going to have sex with us?
  910. BE: A lot of mamono back home use sex as a marriage proposal, so casual sex is a little dangerous if you want to stay single. Plus you didn’t seem all that into it anyway so… *Wendy glared at Blindeyes as she blushed* What?
  911. W: T-that’s w-what y-you t-thought? T-t-that I w-wouldn’t?!
  912. BE: What’s wrong Wendy?
  913. W: Blindeyes! Y-you! POOPYHEAD! *Wendy jumps off of the couch, and storms out of the captain’s quarters as she fixes her clothes. Roe chuckles to herself*
  914. BE: What?
  915. R: You really are blind!
  916. BE: What’s that supposed to mean?
  917. R: Oh nothing! Nothing at all!
  918. BE: Ok… Well I better chase after my tour guide. Thanks for everything.
  919. R: Don’t mention it. Actually, can you do me a favor?
  920. BE: Which is?
  921. R: I’m not really good at cleaning, so could you swab the deck for me?
  922.  
  923. Cries in the Storm
  924. After swabbing the Praxis Rover’s deck out of boredom, Blindeyes finds Wendy pouting.
  925. Blindeyes: Hey Wendy!
  926. Wendy: Hmph!
  927. BE: Still mad huh? I don’t know what I did, but I’m sorry for upsetting you.
  928. W: Hmph!
  929. BE: Don’t be like that. C’mon and give me a smile!
  930. W: Hmph!
  931. BE: C’mon~. Don’t make me force you~.
  932. W: Hmph!
  933. BE: You asked for it. *Blindeyes begins singing badly* When I was a little bitty boy, My grandmother bought me a cute little toy, Silver bells hanging on a string, she told me it was my ding-a-ling-a-ling~!
  934. W: ..?
  935. BE: Mama took me to grammar school, But I stopped all in the vestibule, Every time that bell would ring, Catched me playin’ with my ding-a-ling~!
  936. W: PFFFT! *Wendy starts to laugh*
  937. BE: Told you I could make you smile.
  938. W: Singing about ding-a-lings isn’t fair! I’m still mad at you!
  939. BE: I know. Can you forgive me if I give you a hug?
  940. W: I’ll think about it. *Blindeyes hugs Wendy* Alright. You’re forgiven.
  941. BE: Thanks Wendy. *Blindeyes spots a small town up ahead* Is that where were stopping next?
  942. W: Yeah, but only for a quick tour. It’s one of a few stops we’ll be making.
  943. Roe: A-actually y-you’re g-going t-to h-have t-to stay t-the n-night. *Blindeyes and Wendy turn to see Roe, who’s face is flushed and was walking as if her legs were about to give out because she experienced multiple, rapid fire orgasms*
  944. BE: I was right! That was a sex thing! I feel so used…
  945. W: Why are we going to have to stay the night?
  946. R: There’s a big storm coming, and there isn’t any place here for me to weather it. So I’m going to have to drop you off here, and we’ll resume our journey in the morning.
  947. BE: Really? That sucks.
  948. R: Not as much as I can Captain!
  949. W: Captain? I thought you said Blindeyes wasn’t your type!
  950. R: I did, but that was before I realized how forceful he could be! And the way he swabbed my deck… I wouldn’t be able to live with myself if I just let such pleasures slip me by!
  951. BE: I feel like I have made a terrible mistake…
  952. R: Don’t think of it like that! Look! I’m the perfect height to give you a blowjob whenever you want! And I like women too, so I don’t mind you getting a harem! I’d prefer it actually! Can you imagine it? Having a lesbian orgy while my captain watches, trying to decide which of us he’s going to fuck first! Acting as lewdly as possible so that he’d pick me~!
  953. BE: Pervert… *the phantom ship begins to squirm*
  954. R: Ah~!
  955. W: I think your act broke her Blindeyes…
  956. BE: Something tells me she was secretly like this all along…
  957. R: Hmm~! Don’t mind me captain~. I was just eating out this pussy~. Oh don’t worry about it~. You can fuck me stupid if you want~. I’m sure she won’t mind~.
  958. BE: … Can we get on another boat tomorrow?
  959. W: Sorry… *they arrive at the town of Tristesse shortly after, and disembark after saying goodbye to the Roe. They follow the other passenger to the local motel* It’s funny how she said there was going to be a big storm, but I can’t see any clouds.
  960. BE: It might hit later on though. It pays to be cautious with the weather.
  961. W: That’s true.
  962. BE: So… What’s so special about this town?
  963. W: Tristesse isn’t all that important, but this area holds a cultural significance.
  964. BE: Oh? *Wendy and Blindeyes stop in front of the motel, and Wendy points out towards an open field with a great tree growing in the middle*
  965. W: There was a settlement here ages back. It wasn’t very big, but it was a peaceful little community.
  966. BE: I don’t like where this is going…
  967. W: They had originally settled here to get away from the Luminaire, an organisation founded by Eihaira to serve as a bulwark between humanity and the mamonme. The settlers weren’t exactly pro-mamonme, but they weren’t fond of the Luminaire’s religious zealotry either. So they came out here to live in peace until the Luminaire had abandoned their original doctrine. The settlers were declared to be heretics and monster sympathisers, and the Luminaire came to exterminate them.
  968. BE: Geez. No room for other view points in the face of fanaticism I suppose…
  969. W: The Luminaire eventually left to continue their crusades elsewhere, and the lucky survivors founded the town of Tristesse, which translates into sadness. They then planted that elm tree to mark as a grave marker for all the lives who were lost on that terrible day.
  970. BE: … Thanks for bringing me here Wendy.
  971. W: Are you being sarcastic?
  972. BE: No. This place is sad, but it’s really interesting too. It’s almost too bad that we have to whole up inside. I’d like to get a closer look at that tree.
  973. W: Maybe we’ll have a chance tomorrow. *Blindeyes squints*
  974. BE: Hey… Is there someone hanging out under the tree?
  975. W: I don’t see anyone. Maybe it was a ghost!
  976. BE: A ghost?
  977. W: No one’s sure why, but the area around Tristesse really helps people remember their lost loved ones. Memories are just clearer for some reason. Ghosts and other undead mamonme come here all the time to help remember their past. They also like the gloomier atmosphere.
  978. BE: I see.
  979. W: Why don’t we hurry inside before they run out of rooms?
  980. BE: Alright. *Wendy and Blindeyes head into the motel and get a room as the wind begins to pick up. The storm rolls in a few hours later, and they watch the driving rain and the lightning from the comfort of their room* Can you imagine having to sail through that?! I sure hope Roe is ok…
  981. W: I do too… Hey Blindeyes?
  982. BE: Yeah?
  983. W: I noticed that this place has a restaurant, so I’m going to go see if we can’t have them to bring something to the room.
  984. BE: Couldn’t you just call down?
  985. W: I could, but it’s not like I’ve got anything better to do.
  986. BE: True enough. See you later then.
  987. W: I won’t be too long. Bye~! *Wendy leaves the room, and Blindeyes continues to watch the raging storm outside*
  988. BE: Man this storm is getting crazy. I hope the power doesn’t go out… Hm? *Blindeyes see something at the base of the tree in the field* That can’t be… I’ve got to go check this out… *Blindeyes leaves the room. He heads down to the lobby, and passes by Wendy before running outside*
  989. W: Blindeyes! What are you doing?!
  990. BE: Someone’s out there! They might need help!
  991. W: BLINDEYES! *Blindeyes runs through the storm until he reaches the elm tree*
  992. BE: Hello?! Is anyone there? Do you need help?
  993. ???: LOOK OUT! *lightning strikes the tree, and Blindeyes barely manages to jump out of the way of a large falling branch. He slips on the wet ground, and falls.
  994. BE: Yeowch… *he looks up to see a woman with long silvery white hair that was tied back with an elaborate silver comb looking at him with concern. She was wearing a ragged green dress with a grey bodice which didn’t seem wet despite the storm* Thanks for the heads up.
  995. ???: Never mind that! What are you doing out here?! Didn’t you notice the storm?!
  996. BE: Yeah, but I noticed you from my room at the motel. I needed to make sure you weren’t in trouble.
  997. ???: Well you’re a damned fool! Honestly… Worrying about the safety of an undead mamonme…
  998. BE: You’re undead?
  999. ???: A banshee if you want to get technical. So you better thank your lucky stars.
  1000. BE: You’re talking about the lightning. So you can see into the future?
  1001. Banshee: A little bit. Wait… Why are we even talking about this?! You need to get back to shelter!
  1002. BE: You’re right. Thanks again.
  1003. Ba: You’re welcome. *Blindeyes tries to get up, but falls back to his knees when he tries to put weight on his ankle*
  1004. BE: Urk!
  1005. Ba: What’s wrong?!
  1006. BE: It feels like I sprained my ankle or something…
  1007. Ba: Let me take a look… *the banshee kneels next to Blindeyes, and looks at his ankle* It doesn’t seem broken at the very least. I can help you get back to your motel.
  1008. BE: You’d do that for me?
  1009. Ba: Of course! What kind of person, let alone a banshee, would just abandon someone who came to make sure they’re ok? Unless you think I’m sort of horrible person mister..?
  1010. BE: Blindeyes.
  1011. Ba: Casey. So let’s get going. *Casey the banshee helps Blindeyes up, and supports him as he hobbles back to the motel*
  1012. BE: I just can’t thank you enough for this Casey.
  1013. Casey: How many times are you going to thank me for this?
  1014. BE: At least once more.
  1015. C: G-geez… You’re awfully embarrassing… *they walk into the motel to find Wendy worriedly talking on her cell phone*
  1016. W: BLINDEYES! *Wendy rushes over to Blindeyes to give him a hug*
  1017. BE: Hey Wendy. What’s up?
  1018. W: What’s up? WHAT’S UP?! You ran outside in the middle of a storm, don’t come back, and ask “what’s up?” I was worried sick! I even calle- *a portal of pure light appears in the lobby. Sigrun the Valkyrie rushes through the portal wearing a full suit of holy armor*
  1019. Sigrun: I came as quickly as I could Wendy! Where did you last see him?! *Casey grips Blindeyes tighter*
  1020. BE: I’m over here Sigrun, and in one piece. More or less…
  1021. S: Blindeyes! Thank goodness you’re..!
  1022. C: …
  1023. S: You seem to have something attached to your arm…
  1024. C: How rude! I thought you old goldilocks would at least have enough manners to not refer to people as things.
  1025. S: I’m not that old! I’m only twenty six!
  1026. C: Twenty six, and still single. How sad~.
  1027. S: I am not single! I have a b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b..!
  1028. C: A b-b-b-b-bottle? I guess it’s true. Anything can be a dildo if you’re brave enough.
  1029. S: Why you! *Casey clings to Blindeyes* What are you doing to m-… T-t-to Blindeyes?!
  1030. C: He sprained his ankle trying to SAVE me, so I’m helping him stand.
  1031. S: As expected of someone with a noble warrior’s soul like Blindeyes. It would be an honour for me to heal you.
  1032. C: Not so fast! How do I know you’re not going to do something fishy to him?
  1033. S: I wouldn’t do anything fishy to him! He’s my bo- friend.
  1034. C: Likely story.
  1035. S: Puh-lease. Why would Wendy call me to help if we didn’t know each other? In fact, you’re the one who’s most likely to try something “fishy”! What kind of relationship do you have with Blindeyes? *Casey blushes*
  1036. C: We d-don’t have a r-relationship! I-I’m just helping him out because he got hurt trying to help me.
  1037. S: Then you should let me heal him.
  1038. C: Like hell! I promised I’d bring him safely to his room, and that’s exactly what I’m going to do!
  1039. S: You can still do that after I heal his ankle!
  1040. C: Well you can heal him after I bring him to his room!
  1041. BE: Wendy?
  1042. W: Yes Blindeyes?
  1043. BE: What’s going on?
  1044. W: Well… Banshees and valkyriar aren’t known for getting along.
  1045. BE: Is that so? Any reason why? *Wendy blushes*
  1046. W: W-well… They t-tend to g-go after… The s-same… The same…
  1047. S+C: BLINDEYES!
  1048. BE: Y-yes?!
  1049. C: Should we heal you here like an idiot?
  1050. S: Or should we stupidly carry you back to your room?
  1051. S+C: What did you say?!
  1052. W: E-enough! *Sigrun and Casey shut up to stare at Wendy* B-Blindeyes is hurt, a-and needs his rest. So can you heal him so that we can escort him back to the room?
  1053. S: S-sure!
  1054. C: Of course ma’am! *Sigrun begins to heal Blindeyes’ ankle*
  1055. BE: Thanks Wendy!
  1056. W: N-no problem..! *Casey and Sigrun carry Blindeyes back to his room, and spend the rest of the night arguing over who should take care of him. Naturally Wendy makes sure he’s comfortable while they argue.*
