Well, at least this came out easier than usual.  Hopefully that's a good omen for writing this week and I'll be able to finish off that chapter of Petal to the Metal that's bothering me soon.

As always, thank you for your continued support!

Turn 10 (Phase II) The first indication you have that something has gone horribly wrong is when Li Xingke bursts into your office without an appointment, trailed closely by Kaguya Sumeragi. This is unusual for a number of reasons, but specifically because both are sticklers for protocol and etiq...

You can almost cut the tension in the air, with how much this update has of it in the narrative. Very nice writing, Slayer Anderson. Also: SPOILER WARNING BELOW THIS! ...Okay, I think I'm clear from spoiling this for anyone who for some reason might accidentally somehow check the comments before the update. Lelouch, you did it again! Hype, hype, hype!

We actually beat the dice? Had to use a reroll sure but we actually managed to suceed? I really want to see another POV from Charles after this but wow...

I absolutely love this cameo, at the very least no matter how good or badly this turns out it’s still better than being eaten by nazi vampires. Arguably pip doesn’t make it out to badly…. I love how we go from a recluse to the madness at the conference then somehow the conference wasn’t mad enough so we stepped up our game to do this. Honestly even if everything goes perfectly I can see Charles telling us A) that he hopes that any children we have turn out just like us, B) he sics mom on us so we don’t do anything to crazy. Or he would but honestly thst would just make things worse.

The last time Lelouch rolled over 300 he got all the shinobi clans and got paid for it - going by that precedent, he's going to flip all the fleets and somehow get paid for it :p ...alternatively, another diplomacy trait? The theme of this quest really seems to be "Lelouch turns his low stats into his high stats".

On top of the roll itself, we went for the option of sending the Spec Op team with both General Li and Lelouch himself as a part of it to talk to the Admiral, and give pretty solid evidence that the families have truly been rescued. Which will likely allow for that high roll to not run into hard limits so easily, when compared to just making a radio call.

Slayer Anderson

I assume you mean the Pip cameo, but there are like a dozen stealth cameos/references throughout the entire thing if you look closely.

You get the Super Secret Fun Prize. It is not a boat, but you have stopped it from getting *on* a boat. So good for you. However, you have succeeded so hard Lelouch has brought a very complex political situation to his doorstep.

Euphie: "Oh boy, another headache for me!"

I would say that I'm starting to sense a pattern, but considering how this has been the way things seem to go from nearly the very start of the quest...

Yichi Zhang

I mean, that's basically what happened with Xingke... come to think of it, this Super Secret Fun Prize sounds awfully like it would be a person rather than an object. Who would be important and trying to get out of Guangzhou, though?

It is either some super prototype which was going to the frontlines or a VIP which is gonna make things very interesting in the most chinese form of the word. Nevertheless what I really want is an update regarding our pet mad scientist. When are we gonna get some Jaeger love?

Vega

Yep, I noticed some of the others but my favorite was the pip one!
