Adventure RPG What If? #1: What if flirting with the lamia in Erada City hadn't gone horribly?
This is an alternate version of Adventure RPG 2-3: http://aryion.com/g4/view/322528
>Flirt with Lamia Magic Shopkeeper
You slide up the the counter of the Magic Shop and decide to flirt with the cute lamia girl. You feel like you do a decent job at it, though the lamia blankly stares at you for a moment.
"Well... Better than that idiot who runs this place." She sighs. She seems like a bit of a cold person. "I don't get paid enough for this nonsense." Quickly deciding to change the subject, you ask her about her job. "It's a job. Gonna be honest, I'd rather be working anywhere else. My boss is a huge pervert and the pay is awful." She looks at you for a moment. "You wouldn't happen to know of a job I could take, would you?"
You think for a moment and explain to her that you're an adventurer about to head out and start travelling. Having a travelling companion could always be nice. "Adventuring, huh? Well, I do know some magic. Though... it does sound like it might be a lot of work..."
She seems to be thinking about the idea when a dark skinned elf comes out of a room behind the lamia. "How's things going today, eh?" Saying that, he casually slaps the lamia's butt, which causes her to jump a bit, knocking her out of thought. Seemingly instinctively, the snake-like tail coils up the man, squeezing him quite firmly. "R-right... H-how about we n-not do this in front of customers?" He struggles a bit to speak as the girl squeezes him.
"That's it." She gives him one last sudden squeeze before releasing him from her coils and heading towards a door that leads outside next to you. "I quit, you pervert. Have fun looking for someone else to harrass." She slithers over towards you. "For now, I'll just go with you. I'll give this adventuring thing a try." You happily nod to her as you start to leave together. You hear the shop owner calling after you, though your new lamia friend urges you to just ignore him.
Away from the magic shop, you remember to actually introduce yourself and ask for her name. "You're Floria? I'm Araida. I guess I should thank you for giving me a decent excuse to quit that stupid job." You nod to her, though you wonder why she's willing to work with you. After all, her only real experience with you so far is you flirting with her... "So, what do we do now? What do adventurers even do?" You tell her that you were just planning to start travelling and see what you managed to find. "That seems... unreliable." You admit that you are a bit new to this whole idea. "Well... I guess I'll just follow you around for now."
After doing a little more shopping, you head to the Eastern Gates and start travelling along the Drathi Moutain Road. It should lead you to the nearby town of Malor, though the road isn't patrolled as heavily as it really should be since most travel to and from Erada City is done via airship.
After about an hour of travel, you notice someone further ahead on the road. They seem to notice you as well and approach. Once they get close enough, you can see that it's a female wolf beastkin. She looks pretty rough though, and you start to wonder if she's possibly a bandit of some sort. She holds a short sword, but seems hesitant before both you and Araida.
"Tch... You two don't look that tough." She says that, but she doesn't sound too confident. She raises her weapon at you. "Just... hand over your gold. I'd rather this not get bloody." Looks like she's willing to fight you, even if she is outnumbered. She must be desperate.
"Hm..." Your lamia partner seems to be thinking a bit. "Well, this shouldn't be too hard." She looks over at the wolfgirl. "Maybe we can get a bounty on her or something? She doesn't look like much though." She starts generating a fire spell with her focus glove. "Well, we're just cleaning up the road then. If you don't mind... I'm also a bit hungry. I bet she would tide me over for a while."
You're a bit surprised to hear the snake girl say that, but you admit that it would probably save on rations. The wolfgirl looks nervous, but still ready to fight.
---
And there's the end of our first "ARPG What If?" :V
So yeah, we could have gotten a lamia mage ally named Araida had Floria not been awful at flirting.
I'll be honest, if you guys want me to continue this a little more, I would probably be willing.
Though, I feel like it might end a bit badly for this random wolfgirl bandit. Oh well, that's just the fate of random encounters, right? :V

Jiklok- In a world of many outcomes there is many paths to be taken I suppose. (Was wondering the city side from another pointless gaurd job. Spots the three lasses) hmmm... wonder what is happening here (holds chin and observes)
May steel line thy path

i predict it will end with snake and human getting churned into wolf jizz/fat. Cause myla is best.

Whoa, this generic wolfgirl bandit has some huge tits. Could keep us well fed for the journey ahead.
We should be careful when disrobing her, though. She's probably packing a weapon in her pants.

Definately want to see a little bit more, as well as other what if scenarios.

Poor What-If-World Myla. Alas, at least she would be spared the horrors of lots of sudden birb-sex(need more) and potion accidents and constantly being led into ambushes by Floria's lack of proper planning and naive trust of others. :P

I've been wanting Myla to get eaten since I read update 15(or shortly after), So I'm all for this turn of events. Seems to me, however, that if Myla was hesitant to attack us she probably would not attack us and the Lamia. Also, I wonder if Myla's potion sickness can be transmitted by ingestion.
I am concerned about what will happen when the Lamia finds out that we are an even bigger pervert than her old boss. I suppose we could dial the perversion back until we know her better, but I doubt the comment section would approve, especially back then.
I bet we would still get in a fight with Konic over this. If we did, we would probably have Konic and Myla's bounties to work with, and Myla won't steal a part of our share, so that's all good so far.
Of course, killing Konic means fighting Nysk, and we wouldn't have Myla's knowledge of the group. If we didn't have psychic forewarning from a parallel universe I doubt we would even be able to tell that Jates was informing on us.
On the other hand, we would still have Dulstaft and Marcus to help us. I doubt they would hold our eating Myla in self defense against us, and we could probably beat Nysk with just their help. With Nysk gone, I bet Jates would come and confess her crimes to us and beg for forgiveness. It's even possible, given what we know now, that she would confess to us before that in the hopes that we get rid of Nysk.
So the whole Nysk saga would feel more like an adventure thread we follow on our own, rather than a path we get dragged through by Myla. And that's if things turn out that way, which is less certain than the other path. Plus, this Lamia doesn't seem like the type to constantly be angry at us.
Also, since we work with a mage I bet we would become close combat specialists, since we need someone to pin the enemy.
All in all, I like this what if better than the way things turned out. Or at least, I like what it could be.

You also have to take into account that if we hadn't had Myla than it's possible that Konic and Nysk might have never happened to begin with because Rayen might not have thought of them.

Ah, these What If's are really a nice touch. Definitely looking forward to more.

:0 I curse the dice lol love this direction also xP
Posted by Razgriz 8 years ago Report
wonder if she'd be willing to turn us into a lamia in this what-if :P
Posted by lordamaterasu03 8 years ago Report
I have no comment on whether to continue or not. but this is lovely in my opinion. ^W^
though I wonder how the situation would change if Myla did join us still and it was a three to one fight with Kranic or whatever the guy's name was.

A) Tell wolfgirl bandit to scram
B) Ask wolfgirl bandit why she's doing that
C) Invite wolfgirl bandit to the party
D) Vore wolfgirl bandit and humbly request of the storyteller a naked, internal x-ray view
'D', it is!
Posted by KingNothing 8 years ago Report
Naked, maybe not. Internal x-ray view, probably not. Internal cutaway, definitely. Continuation, 100%.

I know I'm a little late for commenting on this (I didn't get it in my notifications for some reason), but I like the way it turned out.
For continuing this time line though, I'm going to say no. This one doesn't interest me.

I still wanna see this get continued x3 at least I can dream of floria having snek companion. I'm just so curious how many things would have changed with her being around...would there be Leeds?! 0w0!!!
Posted by MolenarVincaros 8 years ago Report
betting we end up inside her at some point if this route takes, hopefully to snake us up as an alternate to birb route. Floria with the ability to coil for lewds would be a force to reckon with
