Enjoying the pastries you brought, you tell your friends about the jobs you've cleared in Port Sunrise so far, and talk more in detail about when happened when you were kept by Crystalyn. While of course your friends don't approve of her kidnapping you, they sound relieved that she didn't do anything other keeping you with her and released you of her own accord eventually.

"In the end you've had more fun than us these last days, Hearty." Chara comments. "The trip to Port Sunrise was a little boring, and I wouldn't call the time we spend looking for you around Meadowburg very productive either."
"That reminds me, did you tell anybody else about my disappearance?" You ask. "I hope I didn't worry too many ponies…"

"We did ask around town about you while we were looking for help." Brass Compass says. "We first met that mare called Board. She was… strangely reassuring about all this. She told us about the first time you had met that kelpie too, and just like you she told us how you had a cordial talk with her at the time and that she had good hope you weren't in real danger."
"It sounded more like she was trying not to freak out herself, if you ask me." Chara argues to that. "I have a hunch this warrior mare was more attached to Hearty than she let on. At this point, we were the ones doing most of the reassuring, like when we talked with Ratchel, then to Brighthoof. We wanted to know if any of them had some magic mean to find you, but Ratchel didn't have a spell for that. She was devastated, and kept apologizing about not being able to help. Meanwhile, that Brighthoof cleric sounded ready to launch a whole crusade against the ocean at first, and if we knew how to find you, she probably would have done something of that fashion. I'm not sure if it helped much, but she's been praying for you instead. There was also that Wind Chaser mare we heard about, but apparently she had left Meadowburg the morning you were taken away."

"By the way, I already sent another letter to Ratchel when I got your reply, and I asked her to spread the word that you were okay." Brass Compass adds. "But maybe you'd like to write to these ponies yourself if you've got other things to tell them."
One a side note, this makes it sound like whatever Hilda told Ratchel about you didn't leave any lasting bad impression.

"And what about Summer Nap?" You ask. "What did she do after I went missing?"
"Her? She was a real bitch about it, that's what she did." Chara says in a bitter tone. "She blamed you and Brass Compass for it since you didn't want to fight and didn't tell her your plan. She even threatened to get us arrested for colluding with monsters, or something like that. We chose not to engage with her after that. At least she let us try to find a way to locate you without bothering us."

"Anyway, I believe we can say this unfortunate event is officially behind us!" Brass Compass smiles. "That means that unless you've changed your mind, Hearty, we can continue our trip to Sky Diamond as scheduled. I'd like to stay no more than a few more days here, but while we do, we can stay at my home. I wrote to my parents and they're away on a quest of their own, so I'm formally inviting you to stay with me. We'll be better off staying in the upper city, and the house is big enough for all of us."

"Are you sure about that, Brass Compass?" You pondered the idea of saving your growth for a quest, but the urge to just make these mares bigger right now is too strong. Using your magic and a few notes from your instrument, the already large Brass Compass and Chara push away the table in front of them as they grow to 11' and 9' tall respectively.

"Gee. I thought I had a bit of headstart…" Knifepoint reacts, looking up to Brass Compass with a smirk, and dejection in her voice that you're not sure is feigned. "Maybe I should stage a teary reunion with you or something, Hearty."
"Well, if there was any doubt left that this is the real Whispering Heart in front of us…" Chara smirks at you. "Looks like being the pet of a giant sea mare didn't change your preferences. And thanks for the boost. At this point I feel like I could fry a whole shark in a single move! Did you have any task in mind I could try this body on?"
"Actually, I was thinking about having some fun at the beach today." You say. "We'll have time for jobs later."
"Oh. Sounds good to me too in fact." Chara shrugs with a smile while Brass Compass nods too. "It's been a long while I didn't go on a beach day."

>What do?
>Anything specific you wanna do at the beach?
>Write to a friend?

You used Ode to perfection on both mares, but they didn't wish to change their appearance in any particular way at this moment.

>>43060001
Is Compass' home at the higher or lower district? Ask if Knifepoint is alright staying with us at Compass' place if it's the former. Having three huge mares, a free room, plus a known local of the area, may help persuade Knifepoint into considering going there. Is Knifepoint going to join us at the beach again as well? Understandable if she splits off today to do her own work or side activities. There's also the question if she would even join us for Sky Diamond.

Write to Ratchel in a private room. Tell her were sorry for worrying her and getting into that Kelpie mess. Reassure that we're perfectly fine though. We're here reunited at Port Sunrise with the others, including Hilda. Tell her that we came across her former mentor and asked her to obtain the ability to talk to rats again. Tell her ever detail about our...mixed interaction with her recently. We understand why they separated after we witnessed her attitude with rats, but maybe she can provide a second view of her. On far more lighter topics, tell her about some of the quests and adventures we've had since we were last gone. We've experienced a lot so far and grew stronger as a result. In fact, our magic now only grows stronger if we spend some time away from a mare, and we also managed to gain the ability to shape a mare's body according to their will during a boost to their height.

Speaking of which, apologize for one minor thing. We weren't entirely honest about what we liked. It's not just height that makes us attracted to mares, even if it's a huge factor, but there are other ones. We also love mares with extremely large proportions. The bigger they are, the more they deserve curves the very gods would envy and hopelessly fail to obtain. We want to sat on by a mare with a flank with shelf-like sized birthing hips with enough fat to jiggle everywhere they move. We want teats close to touching the ground, if not outright so, with milk production high enough to need several milkings a day to calm down in which we help the said mare in question. That the mare will openly and confidently accept these changes. That this mare is her. Apologize for spilling our heart out so lecherously, but she knows our desires very well by now, and we feel happy and comforted that she understood us well enough to only tease us a bit instead of pushing us away. The spell on a mare's curves only works if they desire it, and we were planning to ask her about this personally, but a letter will have to substitute. Regardless, we do hope to come back Meadowburg some time in the future to see her again, magic or not. Ask her how she's been adjusting to the small town, how the others have handled the news of our well-being being confirmed to being alive and well, and wish Ratchel well.

Thought the mares we grow become our muse automatically, so shouldn't we see the bonuses and bonus goals for Chara and Brass?

>>43060001
Hmm wonder where Wind chaser go? I'm sure we'll meet her again in our journey. As for Summer nap she may or may not be still be mad at us when she see us again, but whether or not she will we can make it up to her just like we did with Brighthoof the last time we saw her. Board the lazy warrior being more attached to Hearty huh guess we left a great impression on her that made us very important in her heart, even though she trying to stay calm and strong for the him inside board's mind she is worried to death about the bard's fate. Ratchel was devastated about Hearty disappearance frighten she thought she just lost the only pony who ever gave her a chance and offer her kindness instead of treating her as a monster. Since Brass and Chara body's didn't change their appearance further other than growing taller; its due to they're minds were more concern about the well being and safety of Hearty at the time than anything else, and now that they're reunited with him in due time they'll start thinking about desiring more lovely perks being added to their ideal dream form.

On the bright side, yes woo hoo Brass compass is inviting us and our team to live in her house for a while in the upper city didn't see that coming, but this is great now we can spend nights in Upper Port Sunrise for a change instead of just constantly staying in Lower Port Sunrise, we need a change of scenery and enjoy spending time in a another part of this city.

Write a letter back to Brighthoof, Ratchel, and Board let them know we're okay and back together with our friends. Thank them for trying to help Chara and Brass find us by expressing our sincere gratitude. State he'll one day came back to Meadowburg after adventuring in Sky Diamond capital and spend time with them all again personally once he gets the chance.

Tell Brass having her as our guide will greatly help us safety navigate through the city better. Tell Chara we don't mind for her staging a teary reunion for us, but allow us to play music along with her so her performance can be more spectacular. Moreover, mention he never once forgotten about his two party members when he was gone Hearty misses them dearly and still has the goal of wanting to date them going to the beach is a great place to start bonding and reconnecting with each other. At the beach let's slow dance with our mares, playing two on two volleyball with them now that there are four of us, and enjoy surfing in the waves.

>>43060143
>Thought the mares we grow become our muse automatically, so shouldn't we see the bonuses and bonus goals for Chara and Brass?

You can chose to do so. I'm probably not going to prompt for it withe very spell, though. You may still make Brass Compass OR Chara your muse now.

I'm updating the paste with the information on that btw

>>43060169
Ah, so we have to actively choose if they become our muse when a spell is used on them and so it isn't automatic like I thought it was. In that case, make Brass Compass our muse now from the ode spell.

>>43060001
Good to know that the bond we share with Knifepoint has grown in more ways than one into something special. Focus on Brass Compass as our muse.

>>43060462
Actually, even if we picked one muse to stick with, wouldn't we just quickly grow Chara and make her our muse first, look at her muse bonus and requirement, then grow and make Brass our current muse? Not much reason to not do it if we're going to grow them both right now.

>>43060001
>What do?
Show excitement about seeing our friends in hot attractive swimsuits.

>Anything specific you wanna do at the beach?
Ask Brass to use her magic to make a little whirlpool spin in the water for us having fun spiral around in circles?

Ask Chara if she can do her fire dance in water causing some misty fog to appear as special effects?

Ask Knifepoint for a Round 2 on the ball game they did yesterday see who will win the match this time breaking the tie breaker?

>Chara is now your muse
>Whenever you grow Chara while she's dancing in front of a non-hostile audience, or while you're having a date with her, or having an intercourse with her, she starts to slowly grow over time until the end of the event, up to thrice her current height after 10 minutes. She shrinks back near-instantly at the end of the event.
>To gain a new boon for your muse Chara:
>Have her reach full size while performing in front of at least 20 spectators

>Chara is no longer your muse

>Brass Compass is now your muse

"Say, you're living in the upper district, right?" You ask Brass Compass.
"Yes." She nods. "I mean… I already told you what I think. We're better off staying at my home. It'll be a lot safer. Also, since you're all my guests, you won't have to pay the toll. You'll just have the pass the gate with me once."
"Sounds good, thanks." And you turn to Knifepoint. "What do you say? Would you mind going to upper Port Sunrise with us?"
"Well, if you're inviting me as a guest…" She shrugs. "Sure. 'Would be rude to refuse."

"Great!" You smile at her "And what about returning to the beach? Since we've been there together yesterday already, I'd understand if you'd like to do something productive."
"Nah, I'm coming." Knifepoint replies. "I was able to clear a short delivery quest this morning while you were away studying, so I'm up for some more lazing in the sun."

While you'll take a moment to write to your friends back at Meadowburg, Brass Compass will go to the upper city to find herself some swimwear, accompanied by Chara.
"I don’t need anything to wear in the water." The big zebra mare states. "But stones and metal shouldn't go in the sea. I'll stash my equipment at Brass's place. Also, this is a good occasion to see what pony tailors have in stores for later."

>>43065979
>You spend 30 coins on windborne mail

Thus, you get some time to write and make amends to the mares back in the town in the plains. You tell Brighthoof, Ratchel et Board that you've reunited with the two friends that were searching for you back then, and you thank the three mares for doing their best to help them try to find you. You add that you hope to visit them back at Meadowburg in the future, after you go to the capital with your companions.
To Ratchel, you add that you're sorry for having worried her so much. You've now reunited with Hilda, and you even found a way to be able to talk your rat-friend again. That had you deal with Thornea who you learned is Ratchel's former mentor, and now you think you understand better why Ratchel left Port Sunrise behind. You ask the rat which what is her actual opinion on Thornea. Then, you tell her a little about the adventures you had since you last met her as you couldn't do that in the flesh when you stopped at Meadowburg. You also tell Ratchel that your mastery of your magic has increased since the last time she saw you, and that in addition to height, you can help her alter the shape of her body in ways you describe if she wishes to. Summer Nap and Brighthoof should still be walking around as examples of what your magic can achieve. Just like you're attracted to big and tall mares, you confess in this letter that all kinds of generous curves are up your alley, to be as transparent as possible about your desires.
You conclude with something a little less awkward, and ask Ratchel how she's adjusting to living in the countryside, and generally wish her well.

While your mare companions aren't around, there's another friend of yours that has been peeking at your words while you wrote. Turning around as you finishes to write, you notice Hilda looking at you from the side of the table.

"I didn't interrupt earlier, but I couldn't believe it when you said you encountered Thornea." Hilda tells you as your gaze falls on her. "That mare is a real devil! Going to her is like dancing right in front of a cat's face. And I mean the meanest, most sadistic kind of cat that'll tear your limbs apart before eating you! She controls rats, crows and snakes like drones, so she has eyes everywhere in the city! She also knows a lot of other dangerous ponies, some who taught me the workings of a lock, but others that'll just bash your head in for looking at them the wrong way. And don't even think about calling the guards on her. She has them in her pocket too. If you plan to visit her again, count me out of your bag!"
"Well, I guess I can understand why you left Port Sunrise." You reply. "Still, would you mind telling me your side of the story? What happened between you and Thornea?"

>>43065982
"She wanted my head, bard!" Hilda says. "Thornea stopped teaching Ratchel because she refused to give me up. Don't be fooled by her looks like you so easily are! That pretty mare has as much empathy as a bear trap, and she looks down on all those who do not abide to that mindset of hers, which she considers a standard of excellence. Instead of teaching, Thornea imposed a near-crushing amount of work on Ratchel and I after what she called a rebellion, and demanded that we paid her back her investment in coins. We realized we'd always be in her grasp if we stayed in this city, so that's why left as soon as we got a somehow clear tab with that witch. I'd be very happy to never ever see her again in the future."

After that, you're able to have a little chat with Knifepoint while you wait for your two other friends.
"Say, as we talked about earlier, we plan to travel to Sky Diamond in a few days." You tell the big zebra mare. "Would you like to make this journey with us? You were looking to get to the capital too if I remember correctly."
"I do plan to make it there, eventually." The zebra mare nods. "But I'm not sure I'd like to travel with everypony here. Maybe I'll take a little headstart over your little group, but maybe not. I'm not sure yet."
"As you wish, then." You nod. "I'll ask you again if you're still around by the time we're ready to go."

Chara and Brass Compass return not much later, the first without her usual attire, and the unicorn with a bikini to fit her large teats in. Brass Compass looks a little embarrassed about this attire that puts her curves on display unlike her usual tunic, or maybe it's the sight of Knifepoint's own much more impressive bosom that is making her blush. The zebra rogue has her skimpy bikini on at this point, and Brass Compass can't seem to be able to look at the much more provocative outfit.
Since you've all taken a little more time to prepare, it's after a quick lunch that you all make it to the beach.

Once more you can feel the rush of fresh water on your coat while the sun shines over your head, but this time you've got not 1 but 3 magnificent mares accompanying you.
After a bit of encouragement, Brass Compass manages to create a 20-feet wide whirlpool in the water with her magic. Once you swim in it, you find yourself unable to escape the spiraling waters after the unicorn dared you to. Even Chara, who decides to role play as a life guard for the occasion, ends up not being able to crawl out of the watery trap of Brass Compass, or at least not until she decides to dive and walk on the seabed with you to escape the magically tumultuous waters.
Again, as you ask her to, Chara uses her flames to create vapor over the water, which use to have a fun game of tag between the four of you.

>>43065984
You also brought a new ball to play the same game as yesterday, this time in teams. It turns out both Chara and Brass Compass also played similar games in the past, but Chara in particular seems to be much more experienced than the rest of you at it. The zebra mare bounces even most of your low balls for whoever is her teammate to shoot back, and her own strikes are way too fast and precise for the rest of you to keep up.
The game got so one-sided Chara decided to impose on herself trickier shots, but even a smash from the side her butt was often too hard for the rest of you to catch. In the end, even if you shambled the pairs a lot, the winner was whichever team had Chara in.

"I'm so glad we're all together again." You breathe out while you're now all taking a rest on the sand. You've got Chara and Brass Compass at each of your sides, and if you'd crane your neck to look back, you'd see the massive mounds of Knifepoint drying under the sun over there. "I missed you, Brass, Chara, and thank goodness we weren't separated for long."
"I'm glad to have found you again too, Hearty." Chara says, before adding with a chuckle. "Losing a companion barely a week after leaving my home would have been really ominous for my career, but now I think we'll manage."
"This is part of the life of adventurers." Brass Compass adds. "We'll face other hardships, but I'm convinced we'll make it through in the end, together!"

You dimly hear Knifepoint sigh to the corny statement.

>What do?
>Anything else you want to do on the beach?
>End the day?

>>43065988
Spend time putting sunscreen on Brass if she accepts. Maybe even sunbathe/cuddle with her in the sun. Point is to spend intimate time with her.
>Have her reach full size while performing in front of at least 20 spectators
...That's actually pretty easy accomplish. Talk to Chara afterwards in regards to making this happen so our magic can be even stronger with her.

>>43066283
Chara isn't your muse right now

>>43065988
>Anything else you want to do on the beach?
Ask if anypony want Whispering Heart to apply sunscreen on their bodies?

Look around for any signs of seashells to give as souvenirs for our friends.

Make Sand Sculptures of each other.

>>43066662
Really should read the descriptions better. Use the mana point from our item to make her our muse first to make it possible. Speak to her first before casting anything, of course.
Out of curiosity, are all abilities and traits rolled for from a list? Or is that a spoiler?

bumpi

>>43065988
So those are the muse perks for Chara and Brass... hmm I think we can do both in a single day, we're at a beach so getting 20 spectators shouldn't be a problem. Have Chara as our muse for the afternoon and tell her about putting on a dance show for a crowd of beach ponies as we grow her and then afterwards focus right back to Brass as our primary muse growing her later on in the evening.

What we should do now is obvious Flirt with the three mares with us. Walk over to Knifepoint and ask is everything okay? He haven't forgotten her and is not going to make her feel left out on all the affections and attentions he dishing out, she a part of this romance love fest too. Squeeze and play with her sensitive teats make her moan in pleasure show we still care about her; maybe give them a playful bite, suck, and licking as well if needed.

Give Chara a cheek kiss and let her know he still interested in wanting to woo the fire dancer growing her, presenting her flowers, and taking her to the beach is three major steps that he did showing her he really is trying to put in the efforts to win her smoking heart. Convince her about his new idea he has that she'll love; which will promise and guarantee her size becoming fuller, better, and more sexy attractive by today.

Snuggle into Brass Compass radiant warmth claiming how much he miss this cozy feeling from her he glad to embrace it again and ask what words of relive did she wanted to say to Hearty in person that she couldn't say in her letter to him, unless she rather tell and show him in private when they're alone together at night in her bedroom? Describe being around her keep adventuring life fascinating with all these hidden mysteries in our quests and how pretty her blue swimsuit makes her resembling the sparkling clear ocean; it compliments very well with her green coat making her curves a lovely sight to see like a precious flower which she shouldn't have to feel embarrassed about showing them off to him alone when it just those two in complete privacy.

>>43060001
>>43065988
Is Knifepoint alright? I'm not sure if she's being dramatic for funsies or really feels abandoned.

>>43067901
She's likely a bigger loner than we think, as is natural for a rogue, and is feeling slightly awkward hanging out with everyone at once. She's happy to travel with us, but both times we invited her to as such in this cyoa she turned down due to the group being too big.

Bump

Might be a good idea to let Brass Compass go ahead or before and travel with Knifepoint alone for our next destination. Feels a little wrong to not at least to do so, especially after the days of bonding we had with her. Doubt she's one for jealousy, but she may feel a little left out in group hangouts like these when she may just prefer to be on her our own while we spend time with others.

>>43068377
Brass Compass AND Chara*

Coming back tomorrow

I'm currently having more duties at work than in the past. Unfortunately, it'very likely I'll need 2 days for a post during the week at least.

>>43068881
Understandable. Best of luck, and hope things calm down on your end.
>>43065988
Addendum, but ask Knifepoint if she's feeling alright hanging out around here. Respond appropriately based on her answer. If she feels awkward, tell her she doesn't have to force herself to interact with the mares we hang out with. Ask as well if she prefers if we travel alone with just the two of us to the castle. Joke that she may need some music to calm them boredem of the walk, so she doesn't think we're just simply being overbearing.

There aren't many ponies around at the beach. If you'd like for Chara to dance in front of a big enough audience, you'd probably need to go back to the city. You're about certain even a street performance would soon gather enough ponies, at least in the lower part of Port Sunrise. Perhaps you could even use that occasion to encourage the zebra into the idea of growing taller still. She's already gonna be a 30-feet show of a mare with your magic if she follows through with your idea.
You'd also like to spend some more with Brass Compass, and to flirt some more with her. Perhaps you'll have a good occasion to do so this evening, and snuggle with her if the two of you can share a table, or even a bedroom…

For now, there's still some fun times to be had under sun, and you offer to apply sunscreen on the back of your friends to partake in those safely. The mares allow you this privilege. This time, Knifepoint does not trap you in her bosom completely once you're done, and only lets you take care of the places she can't reach. So does Chara, who thank you politely after you've run your hooves on the entirety of her stripped back. Brass Compass ends up being the shiftiest of the trio, blushing wildly while you work. She'd reflexively try to turn around after every step from you, which got you to slip and straddle her oiled back a couple times. The impromptu contacts only added to her awkwardness, and it's only after several minutes that the green mare's coat is properly protected.

After lazing under the sun for long enough, you try to make some sand sculptures, but without tools or experience in the art, you don't end up producing anything very palatable to the eye. After an hour of frustration and potato-faced depictions of herself, Chara uses her flames in an attempt to turn the sculpture to glass. This causes a massive eruption of smoke from the water being evaporated out of the wet sand, but the vapor only reveals a figure as ugly as earlier, except now with solidified blobby lumps on it. You laugh it off and abandon the ordeal for today.

As end of the day comes close, you announce you'd like to pick up some souvenirs for this trip at the beach. While Brass Compass accompanies you as you go search for some pretty seashells, the two other mares don't seem very interested by the prospect.
"I still have a whole collection in my room." Brass Compass tells you. "I used to take back a shell home each time I went to the sea when I was a filly, and I loved to go with my parents. One of the shelves in my room is still covered with them."
"Then I better find the prettiest gift of the sea." You say "I wouldn't want to tarnish your collection."
"I know a good place for that on this beach." Brass Compass smiles. "We're probably going to see some crabs there too."

>>43070884
After walking towards some rocks and shallow ponds on the shore, you indeed find many mussels and other small mollusks glued on the stones, and their many shells littered around. After some more looking around and disturbing a lot of crustaceans, you find a pearl while spire shell that you deem fit for Brass Compass to keep.

While you prepare yourselves to return to upper Port Sunrise, you decide to have a little word with Knifepoint.
"Hey? Do you have a moment?" You ask the mare who is patting off a castle's worth of sand from between her tits. "Are you alright hanging out with everyone? I couldn't help but feel like you were a little… distant today."
"Well…" The mare ponders, exaggeratedly rolling her eyes before showing you a smirk. "Yeah, nah. I got nothing against your friends here, Hearty, but to be honest, I just prefer when there's less of us around."
"You don’t have to force yourself if you don’t want to stay around." You shake your head. "Nopony's gonna be mad if you want to go to the capital now or tomorrow. Or perhaps what you'd really like would be for just the two of us to go together. Maybe we should do that. You're gonna get bored without some music on your trip to Sky Diamond, you know?"
"Be careful saying stuff like that, Hearty." The big zebra mare's smile widens. "Now you've got like, 3 seconds to say it was a joke, or else I'm taking you to Sky Diamond right freaking now."

>What do?
>Say sike?
>Grow Chara to make her your muse?

>>43070886
Smile and joke to Knifepoint that we know she's used to taking what she wants for herself, but we always thought that required subtlety, especially when done in broad daylight. Think of the news if we're to suddenly be kidnapped again! In all seriousness, we want to spend at least one night at Brass' place to give her a special night as a goodbye gift since she missed and was scared of us, then we can leave first thing in the morning. It's a promise to her.

Tease Knifepoint that we're also already reconsidering the neighbors plan we spoke about and if we really should become her musician in chief if she wants us this close to her. Pool our funds together and create a mega mansion, if she's willing to let us pay for additions to place to house our mares. It's our job to keep her happy, like any good coltfriend would do, right? (Time to see if we can get an early promotion from fuckcolt to coltfriend with words)
Then, slowly reach out and kiss her, even if it'll result in a small makeout. A good way to establish how close we've become in front of Brass and Chara as well.

>>43070992
Forgot to say, but mention that Hilda will be, of course, be joining us along. Joke that perhaps we should be wary of adventuring with two sly thieves, but we really don't care.

>>43070886
I, too, was curious to see Compass' house and more of the upper city, would maybe even do a quick quest up there. But if Knife feels dromomanic, let's goooo

>>43070886
>Grow Chara to make her your muse?

>What do?
Ask Chara to do a street performance in lower Port Sunrise resulting in her becoming 30-feet tall.

>>43070886
>>43070992
Another addition, but ask Knifepoint why she simply didn't ask us if we wanted to travel together alone earlier. Tease her that maybe it's just because she was too shy to ask her Coltfriend out.~ Jokes aside, tell her that we know we just got back together with our friends, but that doesn't mean we'll stop considering her.

We have three mana in use right now, so heck yeah make Chara our muse and use a mana, so she can use her dancing talents to get those 20 spectators needed to get a new perk for her body we can unlock and obtain for hearty and his muse sexy desires. While the last two mana we can use them on Brass in the end at night getting her new perk too which gives us a 50 percent chance to recover our two mana we just use up on her It a win-win situation for us here awakening 2 new boon for our beloved muses hah killing two birds with one stone.

Tell Knifepoint getting a headstart heading to the capital sounds fun and he would love to do that, but it wouldn't be fair to the others if we leave right away the next day. We're guests to Brass lovely home and shouldn't be rude to leave just like that on short notice. Not only that we just got back together with our friends who haven't seen us in over a week in a half 10 days or so scared out of their minds for Hearty life, we need to spend more time with them for the next few days doing quests in upper Port Sunrise, enjoy more fun things we can do in this part of Brass hometown, and being considerate of our teammates feelings not always thinking about ourselves that selfish Hearty needs to connect with them again, so the love and bond they have with Hearty can still remain and grow Stronger.

Comming back tomorrow

Playfully remind her with a 180 that she didn't like the idea of the bard growing her to begin with, but now she enjoys it. If she can do that then eventually, at some point in her life she'll get used to being around others as well. An adventurer life is at it best moments when shared with friends you forge on your travels.

Eh, sounds too much like a lecture. Better way to get the point across would be to tell in a joking way that a decent boss-goddess will likely need to get along at least a little with others if she wants to find the best servants. More appealing sounding while carrying the point still.
The other two sentences are good points though, so fully behind those.

For someone who was ready to leave separately, she sure sounds happy to be alone with us. She'll need to stuff us between her teats to have a chance to sneak us away from our friends. Be wary we may struggle, and we know how sensitive she can be.
But no, let's at least spend the night with our friends before we leave tomorrow morning. It's only right that we spend some time with our friends today. She can kidnap us the morning after.
