It is 1942. The attack on Pearl Harbor crippled the American fleet, and the Battle of the Coral Sea has ended in a pyrrhic Japanese Victory. While both sides lick their wounds, repairing and rebuilding, the South Pacific has destabilized.Recognizing their limited ability to maintain influence, Allied Command has designated detachments of the Coastal Picket Force to engage in operations in the Pacific Theater. Allotments for material and hardware include an assortment of air and seagoing patrol craft, and the logistics bases needed to maintain these volunteer forces.Among them is the Consolidated PBY Catalina. In limited quantities, they operate with ragtag crews, a result of strained training pipelines.Port Vila, Efate.[SIMPSON] - “Call on the A-M, Ma’am.”[HAWKES] - “What do we got?”>”Recon of the Vanuatu chain.” [EASY]>”Supply escort from Samoa.” [MEDIUM]>”Convoy intercept in the Solomons.” [HARD]

You know the Slicerats, I presume? They infest the city. Ever since they outed Otis Steeleye some ways back, they've taken over the wards and yards. Rinik the Rat's clawed his way out of the streets to higher reaches, top sharp of the pyramid.Used to be a local street gang had a sense of decency. Some sliver of sheer sense, not to go mucking about with knifework or the more blatant kinds of assault, but the Slicerats don't play by the old rulebook. Gets them a certain credit, with a certain kind of soul - and so they get a certain kind of recruit, but, friend, you can guess what sort of street-scum is apt to like calling themselves rats and see about slicing parts of other people up for their own gain. Otis ran a tighter ship, back when the old Wardbosses were still in charge. Being in a gang was practically a mark credit, someone you could rely on, the streets had a certain kind of honour. Now its rat nights and dog days.Well. The Watchers aren't wont to do anything about it, the Legion is busy with all its little wars and prayer hasn't helped anyone in this city in decades or more.So we're going to have to solve this rat infestation ourselves.Here in Razorwind the alleys are long and you can hear the wind scream, but it's also the first staging points for many a little import business. Legal or . . . Not so much. Word on the street is the Slicerats have a shipment lying about in the basement of an old building somewhere around here.You can put two and three together and get five, can't you, maskmate?We're going to pay them a visit.Comment too long.

You are a Hardboiled Detective working for the Noir Policing Company. Your job is to go around the city & stop crime before it even happens. Your office is Room 4 on the 7th Floor, meaning it takes quite a while to leave the building & stop said crime in the first place.You recently got a letter from your boss informing you that the local gang, The Setting Moon, may be up to no good. Thus you are tasked with finding them & putting an end to their terror so the civilians can sleep at night.What will you do?(I may not update this all too often)
>>6430390"well.. I guess I forgot to introduce myself, I am Thomas Aquinas, pleasure to make business, I work in room 704"

>>6431714why? :(
>>6431714What happened did you stumble on pol or something
>>6432625I just don't like how toxic it is. I would consider myself as really radically left & this just isn't the place for me. That being said, it sure was an interesting few days I spent on here. What with slurs & self deprecation being normalized & stuff. Also, it's just not a great place for me to be for mental health reasons since I'm trans & this is certainly a homophobic & transphobic space, even on /lgbt/. Also I just kinda got burnt out really fast, maybe it's the captchas or something, but on like day 2 of me running this quest I got bored. So that's about why I abandoned the quest & probably wont return. I've been trying to better myself too, like taking care of my body, quitting Instagram (somewhat), & trying (& failing (but still trying)) to help myself with my pretty bad porn addiction; & I guess that 4chan got mixed up in all of this. I probably won't come back, but that's fine I guess. I hope y'all live a nice life, the people on this board were actually pretty nice! I don't really expect you to have read all of that, but if you did then good for you! (◠‿◠)
Meet 29 Year Old Date Kurono, School Counselor of Tokyo-3's Municipal First Junior High School Academy and hired private therapist of NERV's pilots. While his job is considered non-essential, his mission is to indirectly aid in the fight against the apocalyptic angels aiming to destroy this world by helping them mature and hearing out their issues, the same way he do in school, only with a few extra steps.By controlling Date, you will help him uncover the truth about NERV, his patients, himself, and perhaps the fate of the world, provided he can survive...How To Play:>Important decisions and dialogue options will prompt a Dice Check after voting period is finished, be it either to persuade people with your arguments, get through them emotionally, or absorb emotional damage. This is a social game, so doing the right conversations matters a lot more than getting into fights.>The dice rolls are a best of 3 of a 1d100 die, the DC will be hidden, but it will be determined by the way you word your things accounted by the stress treshold you currently have, which will raise and lower throughout the story depending on what is currently going on. While stress is unavoidable, try to treat Date well, and the dice will treat you accordingly.>Consider the writing prompts as Date's subconscious. While write-Ins are allowed and encouraged, take his character into consideration as to not write anything too absurd.>Try not to get fired and/or killed.
>>6441310>>6441313Given how Rei's been having a longer exposure with therapy than Shinji, as weird as she is prone to being, you can definitely tell it's been having some positive influence on her psyche, her piloting skills, though? Not so much.If anything, we're making progress in turning her into her own person, perhaps the closest thing Evangelion can have to a heroic pilot, I'm kinda digging it. Though I worry how we're doing with Shinji by comparison.Either way they're maturing faster than in canon, yet that doesn't mean they won't be prone to relapses since... you know... Shit happens.
>>6441319>Though I worry how we're doing with Shinji by comparison.I really like how you illustrate Shinji's flaws, the show wasn't quite as thorough, naturally. Scott Peck's framework for his patience is mostly constituted by two broad categories: those he calls neurotic, and those he calls character disordered. That is, people that take too much responsibility, including for things totally out of their control to the point of despair or paralysis sometimes, and those that take no responsibility for anything, always projecting the blame onto others. He suggests that neurotics are easier to help because they already have a habit of owning faults, all you need to do is break the cycle of castigating themselves and teach them how to assert some basic boundaries, to measure things better, and then they tend to do the work of growing. Character disordered patients, however, only ever shown improvement when they are able to make the decision for them self, internally, and generally independent of any other influence. It is a lot harder to start taking one ounce of responsibility when you take none, than letting go of pounds when you carry a ton. He provides examples of either kind of patient in some of his writing, and you often see the latter kind of patient eventually gets fed up with therapy, and somewhat less often seems to simply integrate it into the cycle of stagnancy. All this to say that Shinji will have a breakthrough, but it will probably be a result of Shit Happening, and not anything we say to him - at first, anyways. Once he builds up some basic self awareness we will have an easier time. I am note glad we didn't really break down Gendo's derangement earlier, as I think of this, because it'll be a powerful revelation to share when he is more ready to integrate ideas that complex.
>>6441296>You've gone through a lot for a teenager, and a lot will happen until the angels are dealt with, whatever you feel comfortable with sharing, I will be here for you, and we will tackle it together.>That's called a negative thought pattern. While logically, you know that you are your own person, your brain tricks you otherwise due to past experiences, but we can work our way into reframing that distortion.>Write-inRemind her of Sun Tzu's dictum about knowing thyself. Get familiar with those strange new feelings so that she can master them.Also, combat fatigue is very much a thing. Aircrew both civil and military have mandatory "crew rest" periods, much to the chagrin of the ground echelon. Time to work out a crew rest policy with Misato.
And by the way, did Dagger Date ever tell his son about the OODA loop? If so, maybe he can pass that wisdom to Rei. That is probably more relatable to her than the finer nuances of psychiatry.
>>6441329Shinji has been consistently the hardest character to write so far, so I'm glad he sounds convincing.Butterfly effect is a bitch, since the Eva 01 didn't go berserk and he's not thinking of leaving NERV as hard as he would be from the fear of it, it's easier to focus on his character flaws related to being selfish and prone to avoidance.>>6441386He knows, but not from his dad. Daigo was a fighter, but not in the air force.
Previously in Reborn Grandmaster Quest:Bai Hua, the Crimson War God has been reborn in the body of a young master from the Ming family after he and his companions suffered a crushing defeat at the hands of a being called “The Gatekeeper”. Taking on the identity of Ming Bei, he has repaid the previous owner of the body by doing his clan three graces while following the Dao of Starlight, an unorthodox cultivation path that uses the power of the stars.During his time in Guang City, he successfully broke through the Qi Gathering and Foundation Establishment stages, reaching Core Formation, establishing a new cultivation method for Ming Bei’s clan and setting it up for long term prosperity. Bai Hua also made contact with a judge of the Underworld, the local master of the Silken Teahouse which has many locations across the world, and a member of the Dragon species which used to be his worst enemies.In order to recover his former might and challenge the Gate once more, Hua continues his cultivation in a world where the position of the stars, the identity of the Four Symbols and the way to study the firmament have been twisted beyond recognition, only four locations still dedicate themselves to the study of the stars.Leaving Ming Bei’s clan shortly after reaching Core Formation to travel to one of said locations, he was unable to resist his impulses and took the life of a young girl to aid his physical cultivation, creating an ill fated connection with the Vermillion Bird clan from the Qian region, fortunately enough, the aftermath of a battle between two transcendent beings created a small chance for him to escape the chasing elders by entering the Great Desert’s heart, which he was able to seize at the cost of giving up the opportunity to obtain treasures or techniques from the fighters and having his soul marked with a tracking spell.Comment too long.

Your name is Henry Cobbledick and you're in an office in Atlanta, Georgia. The firm that you work for handles the accounts of a bunch of small businesses in the city. It's not an exciting job, but it pays the bills.With thirty-five years and an unhealthy paunch under your belt, a bachelor's degree in business administration, and a severe case of male pattern baldness, it's not like you're suited for anything else. The last time that you worked out was when you adjusted the position of your couch last week. The last time that you spoke to someone that cares about you was when you called your mom a couple of months ago. The last time that anyone showed any romantic interest in you was back in college, over a decade ago.It's not much of a life, but you don't let your depressing circumstances distract you from your interests.Whenever the floor manager isn't peeking over your shoulder, you often browse all sorts of strange material on your laptop. You escape from the banality of your existence by indulging in esoterica, by hoarding occult knowledge and committing all manner of peculiare symbols to memory. Every now and then, when your commitment to your interests impacts your performance, you have to go through a disciplinary procedure, but you remain undeterred in your pursuit of the unusual.Where in particular do your interests lie?>Neopaganism. You practise a mishmash of ancient European heathenry that incorporates Ásatrú, Fyrnsidu, Irminism and so much more.>Thelema.

“Let's just split it then. I'm not going without a sword and the last thing that I want is for people to remember that we were there. You saw the news clip that Nor brought up, I'm a wanted man. There are going to be people actively looking for me, so they might just see through your perception hacking.” Even that terminology sees to make Vox cringe a little. She really does struggle with the supernatural nature of her actions.“Suit yourself. I'm not certain how useful swords are gonna be when we're going up against guns, but you're in charge, apparently.” Though she hasn't commented on it so far, Vox has clearly noticed how the relationship between you and Ptolemy has changed. She might have a few things to say about it later but right now, you've got other things to worry about.The magister's ritual continues. Characters painted on surfaces throughout the chamber continue to glow with mystical power, in geometric patterns along the walls and in a shape reminiscent of a tree between Ptolemy and the portal that he seeks to create. The black candles that Med has placed light themselves of their own accord, their flames immediately burning blue. It's impossible for you to keep track of every symbol that Ptolemy traces in the air and every alien syllable that he utters – this magic is far beyond your present understanding.Instead, you pick up the carafe that rests on the table and pull out the stopper. You take a sniff and find yourself puzzled by the briny smell of its content. Sloshing the fluid around reveals that it is slightly thicker than you would expect water to be. You're still not certain what it is, but if the magister insists that it will replenish your reserves of qi, you're willing to drink it. You close your eyes, empty your mind as best as you can, and pour some of the concoction into your mouth.It's salty, in a cloying way that clings to your tongue and doesn't let go. The slippery substance coats your mouth and your throat in a manner that isn't at all pleasant. The only word that comes to mind when you search for a description of this drink is miserable. Imbibing it is a wretched, joyless experience that threatens to fill you with despair. As your eyes begin to water, you finally realise just what the vessels hold.You are drinking a pint of tears.>I want three rolls of dice+1d100 and I will accept the best of three. You will need to roll 50 or higher in order to succeed at this task. The higher you roll above the target number, the better the outcome.>Quintessence cannot be spent on this roll.

Jail Quest: a text adventure occasionally illustrated.A night of drinking and a failed attempt to cheat on cards had landed you the strangest job slash community service sentence you've ever had: ensuring Gongalla Gaol survives the reality storm called Singularity.Now you travel around with your employer and a handpicked crew to survey the four Reality Anchors. Hey, beats being tarred and feathered, right?You are Rosa Montagni, who woke up after binging on booze at the local Viridis casino to find Nemo and Craig missing! But Valencio filled you in on their adventures, which involves Liv, a long-time bounty hunter friend of yours. So, convinced that they're alright and headed to Hexbourne, you've decided to head there as well, even if you have to ride a Machine Men-made smuggler transport network on the ceiling.Once you've been intentionally crashlanded on Hexbourne, you find the splitting image of a certain cultist fox that you've helped capture way back at the Orphanage - but this time, he's only a lookalike. Then you find out you have another cousin enrolled in the magic school that is Hexbourne, and try a bit of scrying to check where Craig and Nemo is at the moment.But then... things went belly-up fast. Craig's been laid low by someone you thought was dead all this time -Sierra, your former mentor at connivery! Thankfully they're able to teleport. Soon after, you've been summoned to meet the principal of Hexbourne, which turned out to be the Eastern anchor's deity, Kagutsuchi AKA Homusubi...Wonder what he wants from you?

After everything that has to be done is done, everyone is in a better mood, and ready to move on to other things! What a dreadful description to start things off, but it’s true — You, Aurora, and Matilda are over the moon for obvious reasons. The place has been cleaned up from top to bottom (with Rora’s powers) to leave no trace of your whereabouts, you’re all properly clothed (Doctor Ando’s coat is at rest after a long work session), and, well, you can’t stay here forever…Matilda asks you to never speak of what happened here to anyone else, which you two agree to with some caveats. These details are not important. You just don’t have to be a meanie and it’ll be alright. That's easy. Aurora and Matilda will be at your side until they become homesick, they have spent a full day outside, but that doesn’t seem to be a concern for now…Free will is all yours to do as you please!

What a weirdo. “I should relent control now…” Evie has decided to leave Tina to enjoy the rest of the evening.“Ehem.” Sekhmet puts her hand over Evie’s shoulder. The Egyptian Goddess’ head tilts towards you. In her opinion, the pilot owes you some words…“B-But before that, some words, J-Johnny Ando. I must admit that, despite your perverted urges, you had good intentions from the beginning. I’m sorry I couldn’t see past my biases.” Evie blushes. “And now I feel an enormous amount of gratitude.

Now is the time to pit these two Mega-level Digimon against one another, and claim your freedom at last.==Thread 1:https://suptg.thisisnotatrueending.com/qstarchive/2025/6216903/Thread 2:https://suptg.thisisnotatrueending.com/qstarchive/2025/6254189/Thread 3:https://suptg.thisisnotatrueending.com/qstarchive/2025/6297141/Comment too long.

As for original plans, this Quest was supposed to be a one-shot at first. Due to this, I had a few plot points I wanted to set in stone, to prioritise hitting several emotional beats instead of making an expansive sandbox. From day one, they were:-The partner is a dick-The MC overcomes this and achieves Champion Digivolution-The MC's partner dies to give them a chance to head out into the real world-They wake up in the facility after the podding.Obviously, all of this changed along the way. I thought the idea of the Digimon partner dying to give their human friend a chance to live life was a pretty important and thematic part of Digimon. Especially in Tamers and Digimon Bloom (manga I liked). They have a recurring theme of needing to leave your childhood behind and move on to the real world without escapism/fantasy as a crutch. The FIN image here >>6439282 was supposed to reflect that. That spiel about a human life being 21 Gigs due to an immeasurable soul (based on that legend about human souls being 21 grams, and based on the final scene of Gantz) was supposed to be his dying speech, before he pushes his human best friend out into the real world that she belongs in. And then the last post would be about her going out into whatever world waited, the death of her partner still fresh on her mind. Then depending on her final actions, and whether they were good or bad, I would have the Digivice beep, indicating that Phascomon's egg was still around, and he'd be back. Would have edited this png into a gif with that egg hatching, to really hammer it in.But as time went by, I realised that this would be unsatisfying, given the growth they got. They climbed the tower once already, came to terms with their bond, and then went on a WHOLE fucking mini quest to regain Champion form. At that point it would have been looping the same thing to make him sacrifice himself. That's why I made sure to keep having Marnie refuse to accept these sacrifices. I felt like you guys did enough to earn it, and to not have this kind of miserable ending thrown your way. In fact, I was still considering doing it until Chainsaw man's final chapter came out. It was such a dogshit ending and made me feel like it not only wasted 4 years of my life reading part 2, but retroactively ruined part 1, making it 6 years of wastage. I was SO mad over this ending that it caused me to rewrite big portions of the Tower climb and ensuing fight/confrontation, so that this would no longer be shoehorned in, because I didn't want you guys to waste your time for the sake of my own authorial masturbation. Thanks for fucking nothing, Fujimoto.
And lastly for today, the original plan was to have Marnie wake up alone on Earth if she got forcefully released from the simulation. I eliminated this early on because it would be miserable for no reason. It could have ended with her being spat into the physical facility, feeling insanely cold and grimy all of a sudden due to having awareness of the human body again. She'd be stuck out there with the faculties of a toddler. Now she needs to eat, she needs to drink, she needs to deal with all manner of biology that she was never prepared for, and she needs to wander out of the hallways herself, with no Phascomon or Digivice, and an unresponsive AI that's not coded to handle her. She deserved way more than this gimmick ending. During that important vote where you guys chose her future plans, that was the point where I'd have to reconcile your choice with this plan. If you had chosen to pursue reality, I would NOT have rugpulled you guys with this. I feel like it's the physically realistic outcome, but realism is lame when we're following a protag. So I would have written a more hopeful scene where she emerges into Earth to begin life, without that air of doom from being woefully unprepared.However, alternate timeline Marnie, who chose to go through the Portal without Astamon, would have been in such a situation. That would be her karma and punishment, had that choice been made. Back then, I was also prepared to write an alternate ending. It would actually have been similar to the Bad End one I'm writing right now, with Doc's point of view involved. And then I'd have given you guys the option to load up the save file and go back to the choice you guys did make. I was worried giving such a big do-over would decrease the legitimacy of the Quest, but I realised I'd rather write a good story and run a good quest than worry about some ludokino permadeath Hideo Kojima/Yoko Taro bullshit. If that had happened, at least one version of Marnie would be naked on Earth, doomed to starve to death, or maybe shot dead by drones if she started trying to smash other pods, and with Phascomon dead/abandoned.
>>6440624Thanks Fujimbo then, at least something good came from that ending.Also thank you for not doing the same "leave your childhood already" crap that Digimon official media does. I'm fucking tired of that. Specially since they keep appealing to nostalgia.There's a reason why people like Masaru besides his excessive use of violence.A good bittersweet ending that I thought would be Marnie ending up in the Digital World with Phascomon after he became ZombiePlutomon. She would have fled to the portal with the unconscious Phascomon and choose to go to the DW to take care of him. There she finds a Jijimon exmachina that helps her with Phascomon's healing like Doc would. With this ending Marnie has to sacrifice her true dream to atone for what she did to Phascomon but also gains a second chance to start over with him and pursue the real world later on since she was not mature enough for it at the moment.
>>6440613>'Awesome Quake II'But Quake 2 IS awesome?>something that wasn't very nice to attachOn orders of Wind no doubt>clothing/wardrobe system is something that would break once out of the City, along with avatar resettingMarnie coming to terms that reality is just the most advanced survival crafting game ever>>6440615I wonder how Marnie would react to all this if/when she knew>>6440616Oh right that explains that one passing bit about Marnie seeing topography, hills and valleys in the mapping where there were none>groups like the Olympos XII might take an interest since Phascomon now has DNA related to their speciesAt least they would appreciate Marnie's aesthetics, that's a plusComment too long.

>>6440624>In fact, I was still considering doing it until Chainsaw man's final chapter came out.HAAAHAHAHAHAHAHA>>6440626I was more or less expecting such a thing, which was why I was overwhelmingly focused on creating a livable space in the digital world before even considering the real world. This lined up perfectly with Phascomon's goals to make a home, or at least a base that Marnie could retreat to and learn pioneering experience before opening the can of worms that is hunger and thirst.>>6440624>I would have the Digivice beep, indicating that Phascomon's egg was still around, and he'd be backI did say I was expecting the first tower climb to end with disappearing into the sewers with an egg. It's a much more writable endpoint where Marnie could still theoretically grow as a person and learn how to be more properly independent without a 95% chance of straight up dying.>>6440613Mechanically, digimon just doesn't have it with the tech lineups. It's significantly better than previous games due to QoL features, but they insist on all the generic stuff with the signature moves either being good for 1 or 2 gimmicks or 10% better than the generic stuff.Stacking power to fully built mons takes a lot of time and grinding everything that's not movepools, and it's not terribly rewarding unless it's for speedruns.Comment too long.

https://suptg.thisisnotatrueending.com/qstarchive/2026/6402615/Last Time on 3rd Born Son:The Latterborn chose to escape with their loot rather than risk venturing deeper into the Doom in search of Brightroar. During their escape, they lost many of their number and almost the whole of the expedition to an apparition of the Many face God, a Thing that sought to have them take on the debts owed by those within the doom.With Jason's lead, the Latterborn denied the debt and managed to escape, only for Asha and Jason to be cast into the boiling sea of Old Valyria. Miraculously, they awoke off the shores of Tolos safe and sound, where they made the decision to walk the demon road to return to Volantis.On the way there, they stopped at Mantarys, where they discovered a branch family of the Blackfyres ruled over the forgotten city of mutants and the twisted of form, the Lady of Blackscales rules. Haenora Blackfyre, daughter of Maelys Blackfyre, was informed about the fate of her father, and became distressed.x“Sers,” you said, standing from your knee and holding your arms out “I must tell your lady the truth, but it is a harsh one, one that she will need support to bear.” You say, looking at each of the black cloaked men, then to Lady of Blackscales with your kindest eyes “Please, search me for weapons or threats as is your duty, but allow me to step closer, so I may support your lady in this telling.”Asha looked at you with a mixture of confusion, astonishment, and the annoyance only a spouse could hold for their partner.Comment too long.
