    We are crippled. We can't fight. We also do not have the strentgh to lift small boys. It's a good thing that Autumn is a stealth specialist that is also agility based and can run awway as well as hide. Moreoever, we are a liability if we come. We aren't going to boost them enough for it to...

    Scenarios which include Autumn being a stealth specialist, and being super quick to boot. If something goes wrong, LB/Mounty are deadweight and can't run. Mounty might be able to defend itself, but would probably not be able to do anything without being let go, and then it's quasi-immobile and...

    I disagre. We might actually be a hostage/someone Autumn would have to protect more than anything. And in that case Autumn comes back to us. Between being the bottleneck because we can't fight at all and can't boost currently, and letting Autumn do what it does best, the latter is much better.

    [X] Just send Autumn by himself. The cat's a fur-brain, but he's smart enough to follow a trail and get them home. Urgh, very tempted to actually go and do something about it ourself, especially as we would probably need all three of us if we want to help and there is a big issue... OTOH...

    I think I prefer option 2 myself- it's a bit interactive, and it also should have frequent-enough update that neither the players or QM forget this quest exist.

    ... I am such a fickle, fickle creature. Hesitating to keep having two socializing actions with members of the household, but it's true that having LB reading for 'pleasure' is good, too. Quiet Willow... I am unsure it's "safe" to try to talk to her yet. I was thinking she was one of those...

    I'm thinking electricity actually. What is your goal there? That as the main Housekeeper she probably is best to be known/integrated with quickly, and that she can properly provide context for everyone/everything that is happening in the mansion? Mmmh. I do think that it's more important to...

    Mmmh, you know what, fuck it, we are a charisma class. While the Library is super important social interactions probably trump that. Also, there were hints that we were assigned to this manor as some sort of test of our abilities. [X] Play in the orchards with Autumn [X] Relax in the sun with...

    Poor Stone Soul, being releated to kitchen duty and losing all her hope for promotion. Clearly she must suck up to us for when we become empress.

    This seems I misunderstood you then, as I somehow didn't read it like that. Isn't that currently the scenario though? E.G, Miren is currently thinking we are going to fuck with hers, so what we are seeing right now is her reaction to that. Anyway, my issue is less with 'social status', and more...

    Basically, most of the other write-in are either interpreting her words in specific ways and are about trying to pretend that we are completely innocent (which she will never buy) or it's about trying to pretend we have it a third as bad as she has had it. E.G, "what would you do if you were in...

    Reread. Exactly. And her lens are "this language I can understand". I like this write-in because it's a language that tells her "If you respect me I won't fuck with you", and it's not playing on how she has been lied to all her life/etc. It's direct, and she'll like that. No, that's not what...

    No- Her deal is that if we "fuck with her" or "her toy", she is attacking us. No, this indicate that these kind of actions would put her in our shit list, and she has to be good before she can ask for special favours. No, no she hasn't, and we haven't. No. Exactly, hence why either the...

    Explain why it's a threat? How so? That's why she is shivering in fear. She knows she is in deep shit and it's a bluff. The actual "pretend her plan worked" can also work, but if we don't go and do that, we then have to still play along with what she imagines we should do- in that case, we...

    Those Blessed with Talent

    It's a language she understands- all the other write-ins are not "empathy", they are "infantilizing/looking down on her". They are "Look how bad 'me who own you' are! we are alike!". This is not the best, but at least it's a honest appeal to a working relationship that she can understand and...

    [X] That's not how this works. First, don't fuck with people and their family when you're asking for a favor. Second, if you want anything then you apply yourself, prove yourself, to earn it. I'm not giving out free rides.

    I'm not sure if asking a slave what she would do "if she were in the mistress's shoes" is a good way to earn anything but hatred.

    Another thing- going 'we are both the clan's property' when we are a servant for a ten-year contract who is mistress of the place, and she is a slave we can have whipped with a snap of our hand, seems.... a bit of a misrepresentation. It's not just being "more valuable".
