Fantasy Dungeon of the lost

[RoseAstasia]

Zeke flinched backwards, “SORRY!” He woke up the rest of the way, “Oh... Goodmorning... Thank you for not using whatever the equivalent to pepper spay in this universe on me.” He scratched his head.

 

[CrunchyNutT]

You mean this?" She giggled and held up her staff, judging by her equipment she has been in the game for a while, a simple tag is above her head "Turnip". Sheflashed him a kind smile and turned around walking to the main tavern area to get some breakfast.

 

[RoseAstasia]

“Uh, yeah”, he smiled back, he smelled food and started to walk towards it.



Lark woke up early, her hair in shambles. She could smell herself and decided it was time for a shower. It was nice, though, the water wasn’t as warm as she wished.
After she finished, she dried herself off with the towel, instant dried the towel with her inventory, and put it into one of her armor slots. She looked at herself in the mirror, amazed at how quick and easy it now was. It just felt more... Simple.
She closed her inventory and combed her hair. After thinking for a second, she opened her inventory and tried to put her comb in. Success... She put on her glasses and saw the world clearly outside the window. She couldn’t believe that this had happened. It was almost perfect. Almost... She missed her family, her friends. She wondered if they even realized she was gone... she sat for a little while as she thought about Everything. The sun rose as her sorrow grew within her. Though, those sorrows deminished as she heard voices outside her door. One of them belonged to Zeke, but she did not recognize the other. She put her clothes into her armor slot, removing the towel.

Lark poked her head out the door and saw the girl walking away, “who was that?”

“Turnip? I think... She seems friendly.”, Zeke scratched his head

“I think I’m going to try talking to her. Maybe she can give us some tips”, Lark started to follow behind

“Good luck”, Zeke said as he scratched his neck.

 

[CrunchyNutT]

Turnip sat at the bench and started talking to the bartender. "Waddup Lucio. You know the usual" she smiled and winked at him, a plus 1 and a heart appeared above his head, he blushed and smiled "pancakes turnip?" He asked pulling out his pan "oh you know me so we'll Lucio" she continued to flirt with the man more hearts appearing above his head

 

[RoseAstasia]

Lark noticed the hearts, “WOAH! Can I do that!?”

 

[CrunchyNutT]

Turnip notices lark "you new to the game? NPCs can be effected with how you react to them. I make this one fall in love with me so I can get extra bargains on trading and free sleeping.its taken me a while to get to this level though. "She smiled at lark and pats the seat next to her " you like pancakes? Dear please make another batch for my friend here~" she smiled as more hearts appeared around his head

 

[RoseAstasia]

“Woah...” Lark sat next to her, “that’s awesome... I thought you might have the same play style as me for a second. How can you tell when someone is an NPC? I heard that they aren’t as common as they used to be “

 

[CrunchyNutT]

she smiled at her "back in the real world i was a professional competive gamer, I specialized in mmorpgs, which is basically what this game is. So i have added perks. I can tell the difference between npcs and players. I can also tell how stong monsters are and their weaknesses. Really helps in combat. Whats your play style?"

 

[RoseAstasia]

Lark slumped forward, “I just played a lot of Dating sims... So, I got that... Apparently it’s a rare thing... But it ruins even slightly romantic moments... I don’t know how to use it to it’s full extent”, she puts her hands on her face, “I just know how to open my menu, and it’s even different than most people’s... it has different sections, stats, relationship levels, and a bunch of really cute but dumb notification sounds...”

 

[EvelynX31]

Xavier finally pulled himself out of bed, coming to the realization that this wasn’t a dream, but that only filled him with the determination to escape. After he showered a small window appeared say that monsters could no longer smell him, there was also a timer with 8 hours on it, he closed the window got dressed and went downstairs to the tavern passing lark and a witch looking woman

 

[CrunchyNutT]

Turnip laughed. Her laughter was sweet and it filled the air with a warm happy feeling. "That's adorable. You know you can technically use that against anything right? It takes me a while to build up the charisma levels of NPCs but you could do it much quicker. I wonder if it works on players?" Turnip thought to herself staring at the pancakes in the pan. It took a little bit to make them since it was an NPC making them. People started to fill the tavern room. A small buzz of chatter filled the air.

 

[RoseAstasia]

Lark unenthusiastically waved to Xavier as he passed by.

“If other people can’t, I probably can considering the dating sim... but I don’t know if that counts a manipulation. Like, I can do that to people in a video game easily because they aren’t real. But here... I don’t know...”, she shifts, “before coming here, Everyone always told me I was cute. I don’t know if they were flirting or not, but I always felt awkward and uncomfortable... even if they were cute... Especially if they were cute.”

 

[EvelynX31]

Xavier sits in a corner booth and begins exploring his menu again

 

[CrunchyNutT]

Turnip smiles at the smaller girl "well you are a cutie. How about you practice on me? You dont have to feel bad because i gave ou permission before hand?" she smiles at her "plus i also wanna know what it does?"

 

[RoseAstasia]

“Oh... Alright, but this is gonna look ridiculous...”, she stood up and took a couple steps back. She hugged herself open handed and did a little spin.
She then faced turnip, put both her hands together and did a hand gun while saying “Chuu “
The dating sim window then opened up in front of her, “That feels ridiculous... I hope I can change that... I think there’s a setting for gestures...”

 

[EvelynX31]

Xavier noticed he had five different status bars: health, mana, stamina, sanity, and corruption

 

[CrunchyNutT]

Turnip claps and smiles "bravo! Absolutely adorable" she watches intently "show me how it works"

 

[CrunchyNutT]

Turnip claps and smiles "bravo! Absolutely adorable" she watches intently "show me how it works"

 

[RoseAstasia]

Lark walks over and shows her the menu: Interact, action, gift, info, notes, close menu, and an ON/OFF switch for hints.

 

[CrunchyNutT]

Turnip smiles at her "go ahead, You can test what ever you want"

 

[RoseAstasia]

Lark clicks action, more options pop up:
wink,
Flirt,
pickup line,
embrace (higher relationship level needed) (Requires circumstances),
kiss (higher relationship level needed),
Propose (higher relationship level needed) (Requires item: Engagement ring),
Attempt procreation. (higher relationship level needed) (Requires opposite gender for success)

Lark stands in silence for a few seconds, “Well then... a few of those options probably won’t ever be used...”, she taps wink. Suddenly, her facial expression changes to a more sudductive look, she turns to face Turnip, she smiles as her right eye closes and opens in a sudden yet lasting moment. Her smile lasts a couple seconds, then her face returns to normal.

She blinks in confusion, “that was officially the weirdest moment of my life...”

 

[RoseAstasia]

Zeke noticed just how hungry he was. He looked around and noticed Xavier. He decided to try to talk to him, after all, he was in a similar position; still new, wanting a way out, trying to learn everything he can. He walked over and sits at the booth, “what’s up?”

 

[CrunchyNutT]

Turnip laughed at the awkward Lark "awwww" a bar appeared infront of her with a love heart, it was currently in yellow but there was a plus moving it up by 3. "woahh. Are you gonna make me fall in love with you or something?"

 

[RoseAstasia]

Lark became flustered. Her blush was obvious, “N-No...I wouldn’t... no. I um...”, she looks away, “Not on purpose, but if I practice with you a lot I have no idea what would happen...”

 

[CrunchyNutT]

Turnip laughs and winks at the flustered girl "oh dont worry, I dont think i will fall in love with you. Im mostly straight. It might make us the gayes best friends though" she laughs at herself. Lucio finishes the pancakes and puts them infront of the girls "your pancakes ladies" he nods at them. "oh thank you lucio! You are just a sweet heart, here you go" she transfers 2 coins over for the pancakes and picks up her knife and fork.
