[X] The broken

Yeah this seems the most like actual Taylor, just hoping it doesn't involve a psychotic break from suddenly becoming Taylor again.

No next chapter link.

Reread what I said, you increase of the power of the lodge ever with 12 hours of work, not gain a power ever 12 hours. Learning a spell takes longer, and making a spell from scratch takes even long then that.

Does having a stronger lodge increase the speed and/or efficiency at which you can learn or create a new spell... What exactly does the lodge do for you?

It thanks you for giving it life and others you its services.

The first was a warrior. She started low in life and thought her way to the top, she desired to be the greatest and she never let anyone tell her otherwise.

Gonna put my vote in a different post, so it doesn't get lost while sorting through the rest of this post, heh.

[X] The broken.

Because it'll be interesting to see a canon Taylor that's basically gained Enlightenment.

I also approve of melding the broken and the survivor, but want Taylor to remember Danny if she does.

Danny doesn't deserve to completely lose Taylor.

[X] Meld the Broken and ...

I like the meld option because she is still her old self just with some extra added in that is likely to help her survive
seriously who is going to choose to remember being broken and accomplishing nothing
since she remembers the outhers dieing but she doesn't remember the broken one dieing that might be a reason to choose that but id imagine anyone would reject that by itself but a merge with either or both would seem like a good idea
I just see her thinking I'm the broken one but, I don't want to be broken and pretending she's not shure and merging all 3 or picking one and saying it's definitely not this but im not shure about these 2
So I'm voting meld but I don't care if it's all 3 or just 2 as long as the broken is part of it

[X] Meld them together

He looked at the purple chunks and the green juices of the primordial fruit with a grimace. The girl was rambling now about who knows what and started giggling like a loon. 'Well she lasted about a week before going insane. That is better than average.' Mr. Nibbles thought glumly. It would have been nice if anyone in here was sane beside himself, but he hadn't got his hopes up after all of these years of disappointment.

Wow. It's almost like eating that fruit was a bad idea. Who could have guessed?[/sarcasm]

 

[edale]

Oh man, I just had a thought of just how bad the whole 'melding' thing can go. Two personalities, vying for control of the psyche, all while thousands of voices are filling you up with background noise?

We really need to just put Taylor back to being Taylor (as much as she can after her experience). Vote 'the broken' and save poor Taylor's soul... Then get around to countering that anti-alcohol curse, so you can get sloshed and know who you are again, lol.

Actually now that the fae escaped I don't think Taylor has the magical dependency on alcohol anymore. The mundane dependency on the other hand...

Her condition as a whole made alcohol the only thing that would easily allow her original personality to surface. This made ALL the 'avatar of many' (I think that was the term used) quite reliant on alcohol.

Just because one escaped and drank a lot of alcohol doesn't mean they all are free of this dependency, the magical aspect of it comes from the very condition itself.

 

[OverReactionGuy]

Honestly, I don't think any of the choices are the original Taylor. The original Taylor doesn't want to be herself, so why would she find herself?

Rana looked scandalized "What!?! Alcohol is the greatest thing to ever been invented in the history of the multiverse. It solves all of lives problems, no matter how great. I will not hear you speak anything against it."

Taylor face still in her hands sighed before asking "Why would it help me be more like myself?"

"Well we have a fae in us that feeds of alcohol. We could sustain ourselves forever of alcohol. When we get sober the less rational we get and our mind is only really focused when were drunk. Oh whatever you do not drink human blood. You will be addicted to it and it will replace your desire for alcohol with human blood." Rana explained.

'Fairy! How dare he! I am beyond some paltry fae! All knew and fear me! Why they even named a law after me!' Murphy thought angrily

Click to shrink...

I read that to mean
how could you ever confuse a high class fae like me with something so low class I'm so far beyond them I'm considered a natural force

I was assuming that we were a fae now from eating the fruit how that effects us both positively and negatively im shure it does both I have no clue because fae can be an extremely varied classification

Also I don't get why so many people would vote for the broken original Taylor doesn't want to be herself so with her being unsure who she is would she chose to be someone that doesn't want to be herself

infact if she goes with the meld option and ends up as someone who wants to be herself then assuming the broken is original Taylor then we have a greater chance of remembering something of how this world works instead of having no clue as we do currently but whatever it looks like that opinion is in the minority

I suspect the slow and tired question will get us the answer to the fruit if not I can live with not knowing since we sort of do and with her living in a world without gods she needs to ask Wait gods!?

-[X] How do I cure drug addiction?

Break curse = Can get alcohol, and use it to regain her 'sanity'... After she completes whatever is needed to cure it.
Teach her = will probably be something really pointless, but might be something really useful.
Other = If she already knows, subconsciously, how to cure drug addictions, the business with the Merchants gets A LOT easier to handle (AKA day 1 of the 3 week process to create a new spell... "Hey, what do you know? First thing I tried.... Transporter, start bringing in my patients!").

Why do you feel so slow and tired? "Because you just had your mind torn to shreds, and are still in the process of rebuilding it. Next question!"

Escort? Useful, but better to get your head together first, and do this later.

Sheep? Erm... I almost voted for this one, lol. I'm kinda curious about that myself.

The term would be High Silde (I'm probably spelling that wrong, and for once google fails me on spelling corrections...), and yes, they would be quite offended at being called a mere fae. And yes, that's how I took it as well.

Sometime down the line, when Taylor actually gets some Alcohol in her:

----------------------

Taylor: "Oh thank God! Well, some of them; certainly not the ones trapped in me! HA! Oh yea, did I mention that, I have Gods -- With a capital 'G' -- stuck in my head.. AND THEIR NOT ALONE! HehehehahaHAHA*HIC* Yea, you wouldn't believe the mess I got going up in here! But now I've found you!" Taylor gestures to the bottle in here hand, "My sweet, adorable, lovable nectar of the gods you, yes you are, yes you are!" Taylor rubs her cheek against the bottle. Taylor suddenly jumps up, and takes a deep swig of the bottle.

Taylor: "Where was I, Oh yea, so I got LOTS of guys trapped in my head, like a prison really, apparently if some of them escape, they could end the multiverse! Oh yea, apparently the one that came closest to doing that..... A GOAT! A FRIKK'N GOAT!!! Never did get the story about that one.... Oh well, that's not the worst of it, I got Gods, Elder Gods, Eldritch Abominations, Fae, hundreds of people...and they're there ALL THE TIME!!! Can't think, can't focus, can't remember...anything, can;t remember my name, can't remember my past, just randomness. Bits of one person here, bits of another person there, all tied together by some barely sane -- HA!! Sane -- ....Not me... But not anymore! I've found my Salvation, my Messiah, my Holy Grail, my dear sweet Ambrosia from the Gods!"

Taylor takes another big gulp out of the bottle.

Taylor: "Oh yeah, and not all the voices like me. Hahaha. One of them tricked me into eating this weird fruit, and I went kinda crazy for a while there -- But I'm better now!!! -- though I'm kinda a fairy now, like a literal fairy, no longer human, one with nature, and all that jazz. I wonder if I have wings now? Though let me tell you, this stuff is GREAT!!! I can finally THINK, I can finally REMEMBER!!! I can finally FOCUS. But it was so HARD getting some of this stuff! I mean last time I got this close to getting a drink some ABB goons shot the glass right out of my hand! THEN they shot the poor bartender! It was so hard to hold back killing those guys... ALL that wasted booze!"

Taylor goes to take another swig of the bottle, only to realize it's empty...

Taylor: "NOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!! What sorcery is this, where has my Ambrosia gone! Get me another bottle!"

The shell-shocked bartender cast a hopeful glance at Armsmaster, hoping he'd save him from the obviously insane (or at at the least a REALLY bad drunk) -- and underaged -- parahuman who had stormed in to the bar and used some kind of telekinesis to grab the first bottle she saw... Which unfortunately turned out to be a 190 proof moonshine, meant for lite sipping... and proceeded to down 1/2 the bottle in one gulp... He was honestly shocked she wasn't comatose from alcohol poisoning already...

Armsmaster, who had come in response to a report of a parahuman storming wildly into the bar, and had come in just as Taylor had started her rant, wanted to just dismiss it all. He wanted to arrest her, and gain the prestige of her capture. He wanted to lightly question the bartender, to find out if duress was involved, or if he willingly served alcohol to a minor. He wanted to do many things, but one thing held him back. One thing stopped him, multiple times, from stepping in and stopping her rant by sedating her. One thing, and one thing alone, made him sit down in the bar-stool next to her, and nod a positive to the bartender, and ask for a glass himself, "make it a quadruple..."

Armsmaster downed the first glass, and motioned for another, all the time reviewing the conversation, looking for any sigh of it being wrong, of there being an error, but everything tested out.

According to his lie-detection software... Every single word she spoke was the unmitigated truth.

-------------------------

Honestly, this is the first quest I've ever followed (found it thanks to fanfiction.net), so don't know if omakes are something typically done with them... But the muse spoke, and I listened.

Eh...."Taylor finally gets a Drink" seems like a good fit.

Seriously, why's everybody asking the obvious one?

Of course you're going to feel slow and tired IMMEDIATELY after re-constructing your shattered mind... Something that by all rights should take weeks/months/years.

It's a waste of a question.
