Alice Quest - The Seven-Colored Puppeteer's Week

[Neovereign]

> You are Alice, a magician specializing in handling dolls.

> A little butterfly told you of a troublemaker nearby. You are currently about to go put the beat down on this violent person when you get there. You don't think they're even from here either, giving you more of a reason to teach them a lesson.

> But... you wonder if you're prepared enough right now...

> Ha, of course you are. You just need to reassess a few things. Maybe you could even go without that!
>_

[Tashi]

> Reassess things anyway!
> Like what kind of drug we used to hear butterflies talk. Ah, Eirin's pill...
> Are we at home right now?
> Where are Shanghai and Hourai right now?
> Are we still drugged?
> Any recent project of a doll?
> Marisa's annoyance levels?
> Alice's personal tsundere levels?
> Inventory.
> Relationships.
> Seven-Colored... Butterflies talking... Ah, this is a quest about DRUGS.

[Searinox119]

>If we're at home, is there anything potentially useful we can take?
>Speaking of our home, what is it like?
>Aside from making and controlling dolls, what are we capable of?

>Who's that "little butterfly"? Is that some specific person or literally a butterfly?
>What do we know about the troublemaker, and what was the violent thing they did?
>"Nearby" means... where?

[Neovereign]

> Reassess things anyway!
> Like what kind of drug we used to hear butterflies talk. Ah, Eirin's pill...

> You don't recall any pills...

> Are we at home right now?
> Where are Shanghai and Hourai right now?

>If we're at home, is there anything potentially useful we can take?
>Speaking of our home, what is it like?
>Aside from making and controlling dolls, what are we capable of?

> You are not.
> Those sound like the names of places. ...Maybe you could name your dolls after them when you and they get good enough for them to last long.
> You are capable of magic too. You're pretty confident in your fighting abilities.

> Are we still drugged?

> You don't know. Why would you be drugged?

> Any recent project of a doll?
> Marisa's annoyance levels?
> Alice's personal tsundere levels?

> You currently do not have any special doll projects going on.
> Your-what-sa? Your Visa?
> T-Tsundere implies you like someone. As if you'd admit to that!

> Inventory.
> Relationships.
> Seven-Colored... Butterflies talking... Ah, this is a quest about DRUGS.

> You have on your usual outfit. A pink and white dress with a blue apron. You wear a matching blue hair ribbon. Your hair and eyes are a beautiful gold.
> You aren't carrying anything of note.
> Shinki: Your loving Mother. Probably too loving. She's a bother most of the time. You do love her back though...
> Yumeko: Your big sister of sorts. Not really related, you believe. Mostly, she's usually trying to get your attention... you think. Why else would she try so hard near you? She's a maid.
> You don't care to concentrate on the others you know right now.

>Who's that "little butterfly"? Is that some specific person or literally a butterfly?
>What do we know about the troublemaker, and what was the violent thing they did?
>"Nearby" means... where?

> It was a butterfly, you think.
> You know that they're really causing a ruckus in this town, and are looking for a fight at this rate! You didn't get their name or appearance.
> It shouldn't be too long before you run into them.

> Seven-Colored... Butterflies talking... Ah, this is a quest about DRUGS.

> For the last time, you are sure you haven't taken any butterfly dream pill! What kind of stupid name would that be anyways!?
>_

[Searinox119]

>For a magician who specializes in dolls, we sure are stuffed with them...
>Well, it's not like we can prepare further now, so let's start searching for the troublemaker.

[Neovereign]

>For a magician who specializes in dolls, we sure are stuffed with them...
>Well, it's not like we can prepare further now, so let's start searching for the troublemaker.

> You scoff lightly at yourself.
> You start to continue onwards. They should've been stopped by someone by now, but you suppose you'll have to step in.
>_

[Tashi]

> What kind of mother is Shinki to let her daughter resolve something on her own like this?
> Look around.
> Where is our grimoire in a situation like this...

[Neovereign]

> What kind of mother is Shinki to let her daughter resolve something on her own like this?
> Look around.
> Where is our grimoire in a situation like this...

> A mother who doesn't know, that's who.
> You look around.
> There's a few residents who are taken down and plummet to the ground. Yes, the culprit lies in front of you now...
> You don't have one.
>_

[Tashi]

> ... How old are we? How much is our height?
> Realize that Mini took revenge from the approved striked commands that certain user parsed in a certain quest and it's certainly not in this one.
> Look at whoever is standing in front of us.

[Neovereign]

> ... How old are we? How much do we height?
> Realize that Mini took revenge from the approved striked commands that Tashi parsed in a certain quest of certain user that is certainly not writing anything here.
> Look at whoever is standing in front of us.

> Now's not the time for that. You're about to get into a fight.
> You examine the person ahead.
> It's a human. A girl in red and white clothing. Her hair is purple. She's sitting on a flying turtle. There's orbs with a yin-yang pattern near her.
> "Where am I supposed to go now?" She questions, before approaching.
>_

[Tashi]

> "You've gone far enough!"
> Frown.
> "Why you can't be less violent?"

[Neovereign]

> "You've gone far enough!"
> Frown.
> "Why you can't be less violent?"

> "I'm the one who's being attacked here! Sorta..."
>_

[Tashi]

> "..."
> Look at the people down.
> "... You have guts to lie like that, purple head. Actually, you are pretty brave to come here by yourself to confront us, human! Someone like you must be really confident!"

[Searinox119]

>Scowl at the intruder.
>"You think you're prepared to to face us, right!?"

[Neovereign]

> "..."
> Look at the people down.
> "... You have guts to lie like that, purple head. Actually, you are pretty brave to come here by yourself to confront us, human! Someone like you must be really confident!"

>Scowl at the intruder.
>"You think you're prepared to to face us, right!?"

> "Well, I guess I am..."
>_

[Tashi]

> "..."
> Sigh.
> "... Can you be more energetic with your next opponent?"

[Neovereign]

> "..."
> Sigh.
> "... Can you be more energetic with your next opponent?"

> "My next opponent doesn't look like a big enough deal for that. I won't lose to her here." The girl prepares to fight.
>_

[Tashi]

> "Oh! So confident! I really wonder where you got that from... Nevertheless, I'm not going to lose to you!"
> Prepare as well.
> Get beaten up.

[Neovereign]

> "Oh! So confident! I really wonder where you got that from... Nevertheless, I'm not going to lose to you!"
> Prepare as well.
> Get beaten up.

> You prepare.
> The girl moves back some, before rapidly firing towards you.
> At this rate, this girl's gonna beat you up!
>_

[Tashi]

> How good do we consider at dodging? Or we just suck the hits like the good boss we are?
> Where are our dolls?

[Neovereign]

> How good do we consider at dodging? Or we just suck the hits like the good boss we are?
> Where are our dolls?

> Dodging? You don't need to dodge much if you can defeat them before they do much damage.
> You create dolls when you need them. It's not like they're good enough to last for a long time.
>_

[Tashi]

> If they can't last so much, then...
> Create as much of them as we can and attaaaack!

[Neovereign]

> If they can't last so much, then...
> Create as much of them as we can and attaaaack!

> You create a multitude of dolls. Twos, fours, eights, sixteens, thirty-two...
> You and your dolls begin to fire towards the girl, who seems to dodge expertly, still managing to get hits on you.
>_

[Tashi]

> "Lucky for you that you have the focus here!"
> Do we feel tired for summoning so many dolls?
> How much the shots hurt us?
> Keep going! At least some of them must hit her!

[Neovereign]

> "Lucky for you that you have the focus here!"
> Do we feel tired for summoning so many dolls?
> How much the shots hurt us?
> Keep going! At least some of them must hit her!

> "This is a no-focus run silly! This is pure skill!"
> You do.
> Many of the shots are hitting you directly. They seem to be the stronger ones. She's also firing homing shots that would probably make your dodging useless. They're definitely the weaker ones though.
> You continue. You've gotta at least get one hit in!
> But it doesn't look like she'll let you...
>_

[Tashi]

> Try the random shots of our dolls while we do some aim!

[Neovereign]

> Try the random shots of our dolls while we do some aim!

> You have your dolls shoot randomly while you aim.
> It looks like she's being pressured and will be-
> There's a large flash, and you feel like you take a massive hit.
> As it clears, most of your dolls have been destroyed. And the girl is STILL attacking.
> You're really starting to feel like you're going to lose at this rate...
>_

[Tashi]

> "Hey! HEEEY! What was that supposed to be?!"
> How many dolls do we feel we can summon? And how many are with us?

[Searinox119]

>How fast does the red-white move? Can we move faster than her? Can we make our dolls move faster than her?
>Is there anything nearby to use as cover?

[Neovereign]

> "Hey! HEEEY! What was that supposed to be?!"
> How many dolls do we feel we can summon? And how many are with us?

>The girl continues to attack.
>You don't think you can create much more. You have 6 left.

>How fast does the red-white move? Can we move faster than her? Can we make our dolls move faster than her?
>Is there anything nearby to use as cover?

> You think you might be able to... Your dolls could probably. She's not that fast.
> You're too high in the sky. However, you are capable of having your dolls create a barrier that amplifies your shots as it passes through.
