another glimpse of a scene
Arthur was late; standing around you stare at the warehouse where he'd arranged to meet you. An important, top secret job he'd said.
For a moment you think it was maybe all a prank and he'd be a no-show, but you know Arthur wasn't like that.
"We should sneak in and have a look around," ${partner} says as ${heshe1} walks beside you.
*if (partner = "Ashley")
You turn to face her. Ashley's smile lights up her face. She stands there her hands on her hips drawing your attention to her tight denim
jeans. You smile and raise your eyes taking in her pink t-shirt shorn at the midriff revealing her toned belly. Your Aunt wasn't keen on Ashley's fashion sense.

*if (partner = "Austin")
You turn to face him. Austin smiles as he leans casually against your car. His hipster jeans go well with his Ghost Boy hoodie.

#I wish he'd stop wearing that hoodie, its so childish.

*if (partner = "Denise")
You turn to face her. Denise's smile is infectious and you smile back as she stands there in a short flowery dress. Her pale skin glows in the sunlight. Her happiness is
apparent even more impressive is it was a full moon tonight and she could stand there without a care in the world.

*if (partner = "Scarlet")
Turning to face Scarlet you see her leaning against your car. It was hard getting used to the fact her sword wasn't there any more.
Well her old sword was hanging up at her place. You're eyes drift down to her leather bike outfit and the small hilt strapped to her
wrist. A flick of a switch and that hilt became a long thin blade. She still hadn't told you where she'd gotten that retractable sword from.
*choice
#It's pretty cool.
*goto arthur_arrives
#I prefer her katana, now that was a sword.

#I'd asked her to order me one too.

You turn just as Victor strolls right past you.
"Come on, I'm tired of waiting."

Aunt Elena loved her to bits, said she brightened up the room. Although you'd yet to tell your Aunt and Uncle that she was a lycanthrope, it didn't matter to you, but Denise agreed that because a werewolf killed your family they might not take it well. She catches you staring and blushes.
"Don't stare at me like that. It's embarrassing."

With Victor I can’t see a happy ending with his romance path. The best I could imagine currently is a lukewarm respect and him caring but still not fully loving the MC. I could always make a happy ending but it feels like it’d go against his character. So here is a question;
Would you mind if you romanced Victor and wouldn’t get a 100% happy ending to the relationship?
- Yes, I’d mind.
- No, I wouldn’t.

Okay everyone scenario time!
You’re on a case involving a currently unknown Unnatural, none of its MO matches what you’ve faced before. All you do know is it’s deadly. The first day it appeared it killed one person, on day two it killed two more, day three it killed four, day four it killed 8. So basically this Unnatural kills double every day it is free. You also know it only attacks in the night unless it is disturbed during the day.
Now with this tiny amount of Intel. You have two pick two partners for this case. Who would accompany you? Why? and most importantly would you be equipped to kill or capture?

I always pick my RO options in groups when possible so Denise is my first choice, then I’d take Sarah since she was my partner through the first game and she’s a bad ass 
Not sure about equipment, I just rely on my powers
Actually I’ve been thinking of Denise lately, as I’ve got a planned scene where she asks the player to help one of her friends in the pack. It got me thinking what would happen if a vegan/ vegetarian became a lycanthrope. They wouldn’t be able to make their wolf self eat no meat. i’m curious how they would react to that.

Maybe the experience has helped her to understand that meat is yummy! 
Lol my intial thought was they’d wake up in human form and keep forcing themselves to try and throw up the meat
Or the guilt would eat at them, increasing the hate they feel for themselves over time, until they performed some sort of act of contrition and after that the cycle would begin once more.

Well no matter what that thing is, it’s dangerous and needs to be stopped. However I would not count on that thing being really “alone”. Maybe the increasing number if victims serves some ritual? Maybe whatever it is it needs the corpses to…well multiply?
Anyway I would take Lakota with me because of his vast knowledge about various unnaturals and rituals (and his contacts to people that may know more). As second partner either Sarah, because MC knows they always can count on her or Scarlett, because Scarlett has no problem should things end up tough.
While taking that unnatural captive would be convenient, eliminating the danger that springs from it is the main priority even when that means killing it…and it’s anyway not as if a corpse wouldn’t be quite the information source too. Sooo, I think my MC would take some equipment with them in case they get the opportunity to capture the unnatural but ultimately they wouldn’t do it at the expense of deadly equipment they may need to defend themself.

Ewww! Well I don’t really have moral qualms with food as I refuse to think about meat being alive when I eat it and I certainly don’t kill the poor thing in the first place. Though my mom did traumatize me at Olive Garden when I was 8 and let me order and eat veal before telling me what it was. I burst into tears in the middle of the restaurant and wouldn’t stop 
If someone snuck me veal I’m not sure I’d try to throw it up, I’d probably just cry again.

Did she tell you that you were eating Bambi?
I was exposed to hunting before eating venison, so I knew before hand. ><
Veal is baby cow 
Though when I was little I freaked out on my dad for killing Bambi when I actually saw a deer in the garage. They didn’t tell me what venison was until I was a teenager
Ya. I was thinking venison. Sorry. blonde is blonde and now I feel stupid.
Edit - @Nocturnal_Stillness - sorry for the derail. I’ll go back to being quiet on this thread.

My idea for that scenario is that, due to the doubling victims, the attacks at night and the fact I don’t know if the azure power seal thing (can’t remember it’s name) is broken yet, we’re likely looking at a super werewolf situation, where each victim becomes the unnatural so I say Denise as the partner, since she’s likely to know more about the pack mentality of it, the bronze silver hybrid rounds, for obvious reasons, in any gun, I’m more likely to use my powers anyway and, have Lakoto on the phone, if we have one, in case he can help.
And I’m not just saying it’s a werewolf because of my name.
