Ferro's Night at the Arcade

(Heal -roll 95- Fail)

Despite the Cleric's best efforts the Monk remained in a foot-lust haze. It seemed the gangyaru's feet had really done a number on him.

"Yeah, we'd better find a place to rest and wait for the time to come," Cleric sighed as she helped support the Monk once they looked around the club to try and locate the exit.

The three party members still capable of coherent thought looked for an inn. They didn't spot one yet, although in their search they did pass by a young man busking with a guitar. His instrumentation was skillful, but they had more important things to worry about.

They didn't pay the performer further mind, simply continuing their search and hoping they didn't end up running into further trouble on the way. Hopefully they could get this job done soon...

The party kept a lookout and managed to make it back to the inn from before without encountering any more trouble.

The Rogue and Witch set themselves up with a room once again while the Cleric hangs onto the Monk until they're ready to move him to their room and have him rest.

(Encounter -roll 57- Fail)

The four remained blissfully undisturbed as they rented rooms for another night at the same rate as before. Their earnings at the arena helping cover some of the costs.

With the costs covered and no one to interrupt the lot of them, they got Monk and brought his butt up to the room. "Alright, idiot, now lay down and go to sleep," Rogue chided. Monk didn't really have much room to argue, nor did he want to, for multiple reasons. After the Monk got situated, the rest got themselves ready to rest and await the time they'd go and take on the Gangyaru's hangout spot.

(Wet Dreams -roll 24- Success)
(Target -roll 3- Witch)

The four went to get some rest. The Monk and the Cleric doing their best not to dream of hypnotic lamia and teasing gangyaru with perfectly soft feet. The Witch found her own thoughts returning to the sweet sensation of the bubblepunk's lips against her chest. After a few hours the Monk was back in shape, but it was also getting dark.

They would need to wait until morning to deal with less trouble if they wanted a better shot at success. Still, they did have some rest, the lot of them looked much better for wear, but how else to pass the time...? Perhaps have some more harmless fun? Go out and see the nightlife a little more.

(Have Some Fun -Auto- Success)

Looking around the four would spot a club offering dancing and drinks, a maid cafe, a stage hypnosis show, and a local park. They could also return to the arena from before if they so desired. The city offered lots of fun ways they could pass the time, individually or as a group.

The Monk was certainly tempted by the hypnosis show, but Rogue made sure to keep a tight hold on him after what happened hours ago. "Come on, idiot, we're going to the park." The others weren't going to argue, the Witch even had a laugh at the sight of Rogue dragging Monk around. To the park they go!

(Encounter -roll 76- Success)
(Encounter Roll -roll 9- Impulse Buying. Seductive -roll 40, 85- Success. Generous -roll 58- Success)

The four reached the park. It featured a small pond, several grassy knolls with plenty of benches and picnic tables to enjoy, there was even a few merchant's stands along the edges. All in all it seemed a great place to relax and I wind. Although that might prove difficult for both the Rogue and the Monk if the former didn't stop watching the latter like a hawk.

Funnily enough, it became much easier once they arrived, as Rogue only wanted to keep Monk from the literal worst thing for him right now. They wanted to be prepared for their raid, after all, not weary. "Alright, why don't we take a look around," the Cleric suggested, already looking to the merchant stalls. "It could do us some good to see what wares are being sold."

They spotted a small book stand, another selling tinctures and tonics, and a third offering fine herbal ingredients for various cooking needs. Perhaps they could find some useful things here?

Rogue and Monk looked towards the tonics stand, the Cleric to herbs, and the Witch to the books. They were all quite interested in their own stands, and things seemed okay for now, so they didn't mind splitting up as much, especially since they wouldn't be that far apart.

The seller at the tonic stand was a mage not dissimilar to the parties own witch. "Hello cuties. Got something you need?" She asked with a flirtatious wink. The herb seller was an alchemist in slightly stained overalls. Despite her mildly disheveled appearance her perfume was just lovely. A sweet, soothing scent that one could easily get lost in. "Hello. Looking for anything specific?" She asked, gesturing to her herbs that ran from the medicinal to the flavorful. Finally the witch arrived at the book stand overseen by a woman in semi-formal wear, her prim demeanor and aura of professionalism clashing with her plump pink lips and huge round breasts that strained against her top. It was hard for the Witch to focus on the books when such an alluring body was on full display just behind the bookshelves.

"We were hoping you might have something that heals or clears the mind," Monk asked as they arrived, getting a touch surprised by her flirty behavior, reminding him of their own teasing mage. "Or perhaps something that can offer some support in a fight."

The Cleric had a similar train of thought to the others, though from a more natural avenue. Something aid them or help them maintain focus if they needed it... though she couldn't help remembering the gardening from the other day and that brought some shameful thoughts to her mind.

The Witch was quite happy with who she saw at the book stand, as she started leaning over the stall, her cleavage on display as she smiled with that coy look. "So, candy, you got any spellbooks around?"

(Tease -roll 70, 7, 91- Fail)

"Oh I've got a few things like that. And for a handsome, adventurous lad such as yourself they even come at a discount." The potion seller said with a seductive smack of her full, shiny lips. "Here I have a couple of willpower potions I'm willing to let go for three gold a pop. I've also got a few tonics of vigor to keep you strong and energized as you face down dastardly evil-doers and save beautiful maidens. They're two gold each." She said, teasing the Monk a little as she offered up a few tinctures filled with light blue and yellow liquids.

The sweet smelling alchemist pointed to a few bundles of herbs on display. "Chewing on this will help restore focus, and putting this one in a stew will keep you energized and attentive, great for if your working late." She said, making a couple of suggestions. The Cleric found herself continuously distracted by the alchemists divine scent.

"I have several books on arcane theory. I'm sure one learned in the mystic arts could derive plenty of useful information from them. But I'm afraid the sort of traditional grimoire you're no doubt alluding to is a little too up-market for a place like this." The book seller told the Witch. Thank to her rigorous self-control she only briefly glanced down at the mage's exposed cleavage.

The Monk was certainly appreciative of her appearance and a little thrown by her flirting, but he kept his head on straight this time, seemingly. That seemed like a good enough exchange... "What do you think, Rogue? Two willpower potions and a tonic of vigor?"

"Maybe you can haggle the price with a date," Rogue jested, fetching the coin pouch, getting a brief sputter of surprise. "Oh calm down, it was a joke."

The aroma of the herbalist was definitely pleasant to the senses, but what the Cleric seemed most focused on were the wares. Her eyes shines ever so slight at the usage of each and how she could simply use them as cooking ingredients. "That's marvelous, I could certainly use a few, if you don't mind."

"Oh? That's too bad, but I figured something that nice wouldn't be so easy to come by," the Witch sighed, feigning a tone of drama as gave an openly appreciative glance to the bookseller's figure. "But hey, that's just the way it goes sometimes, right? Maybe you could give me a recommendation then?"

(Tease -roll 36, 40, 77- 2 Successes, 1 Fail)

"I wouldn't mind that." The potion seller replied. "Tell you what. I'll let you pay for a second portion of vigor with a kiss." She added, tempting the duo with another round of smacks and puckers that drew the gaze to her full, soft, and exquisitely painted lips.

The alchemist leaned forward to gather the ingredients into a bundle for the Cleric, and as she did her divine scent hit the holy caster all at once. The simultaneously soothing, omnipresent, and overpowering scent made her long to be a good bimbo and submit. To dedicate herself fully to the alchemist for just one more whiff.

"I have a few tomes that may be of interest to you." The book seller said, turning around and leaning forward to fetch something from the box behind her. This gave the Witch ample opportunity to ogle and admire the way her short little pencil skirt hugged her wide hips and voluptuous rear.

The Monk was obviously considering the offer, but what was more surprising was that Rogue was considering it as well, though not for the same reason as Monk. A second potion for just a kiss? That's pretty much for free!!

The Cleric could feel her head go light the more she breathed in the alchemist's scent. It made her want to feel stupid and horny, made her want to stop thinking... but she wasn't quite there yet and she knew they were waiting for when they'd take on what could be a tough job. Oh what to do? Perhaps she could turn away, maybe use checking on her party as an excuse! Oh that could work!

And what she found when she looked away was the Witch openly admiring the bookseller's admittedly fine ass. "Take your time," the Witch assured the saleswoman, "me and my friends are just kind of killing time right now, so I'm not in too much of a rush."

Will Saves (Monk and Rogue)

(Will Save -roll 82, 4- 2 Successes)
(Tease -roll 77, 60, 5- 1 Success, 1 Fail, 1 Crit Fail)

The two pondered whether or not a free potion was worth a little fooling around. The potion seller continues to idly flaunt her lovely pink lips as she awaited a response.

"If you're looking for more ways to go above and beyond I also have some herbs that temporarily sharpen the senses. Especially the sense of smell which makes it very useful when hunting or exploring." The alchemist suggested, trying to advertise some of her other wares. The idea that the herb sellers mind-melting scent could some how be even stronger was enough to fill the Cleric's head with fantasies. If she thought about it some more she might realize that such a thing would also leave people particularly vulnerable to the effects of her bimbofying love bulb.

"I have here several treaties on different kinds of magical energies. Perhaps they would be of interest to you?" The book seller offered, laying out books on fire magic, water and ice magic, charm magic, and light manipulation spells. The formally dressed woman had moved a little closer as they spoke and the Witch sensed that this would be the perfect opportunity to work her charms on the book seller if she so desired.

(I forgot to lower the Cleric's willpower earlier.)

After a moment of thought, the two decided it probably wouldn't be a good idea to compromise the Monk's sound of mind over a potion. "We'll settle on the original deal, lady," the Rogue said frankly.

The Cleric was having it harder, slipping a little into her newfound desires. "Well... maybe just a few leaves," she said, trying not to stare at the woman's curves too much.

The Witch, in contrast to the Cleric, was enjoying herself thoroughly, leaning closer to have a look at the tomes. She already knew which ones she wanted, but she would certainly a little fun first. A little sigh here, brushing some hair aside there, pouting her lips in seeming thought before she'd upturn her face so close to the bookseller's, their lips so close. "I would think light... and charm. A girl like me could always benefit from a little extra, don't you think?"

Subtle Tease

(Subtle Tease -auto due to off balance- Success)
(Tease -roll 44, 23, 77- 1 Success, 2 Fails)

"Your loss." The potion seller giggled, blowing them another kiss before passing over the purchased potions.

The alchemist realized that the Cleric was longing for something, although she incorrectly guessed that her erstwhile costumer might just be simply hesitant to ask for some of her more scintillating wares. "Perhaps I can interest you in a different kind of enhancers." She said with a conspiratorial wink before sliding over some of the aphrodisiac herbs she keeps behind the counter. "They ensure a very different kind of endurance." She'd seen it a million times before, a man or woman comes by too embarrassed to directly ask for the aphrodisiacs that were some of her most popular offerings. Sometimes a direct offer was all it took to over come that hesitation.

The bookseller tried so very hard not to blush, but her cheeks still went a little red as she couldn't help but admire the Witch's sexy, pouting lips. "Yes. A woman like you could always use a little extra knowledge." She hurriedly replied after a moment of awestruck silence, her composure already showing a crack.
