Derrick: If you get that Orange Juice in front of the TV maybe you could make a water gun that shoots out infinite OJ. The reaper kids and Lucia might like that a lot! You could see if Lucia would be better off if Auros looked like a sword around her, and if not you could take him with you to get the OJ as an excuse to give Lucia a bit of time to adjust. You can also use this time to talk to Reggie and Bambino for advice about how to tell Lucia about her situation
You decide to go downstairs and fetch the orange juice on the coffee table. You decide to take Auros with you.

Derrick: Tell me, where did you come from?
Auros: The forest... right outside.
Auros: There are many creatures wandering in the mist.
Auros: Striking down any they see.
Auros: I've had a few struggles myself... Luckily I came out victorious.
Auros: The land is not what you may think, if you've spent most of your time within this house.
Auros: I'm a rare one. Most would have cut you down for fun.
Auros: If things work out... I'll try to repay you, however I may.

Derrick: Hey Itamie, you think you can take Mephita over to the others? Maybe have her meet some of them in order to get acquainted.
Itamie: ... I would like to but...
Itamie: Mephita is not a member of the party, meaning I'd take her the long way and risk unnecessary danger.
Itamie: Though if it's your orders, I will do what I can to take her through the forest safely.
Itamie: What do you think?
Derrick: Oh right... I forgot about that.
1. Mephita is in.
2. Go the long way.
RE: Lucidstuck: It's not over! - Heyoceama - 06-09-2016
We could allow temporary status for the sake of taking the safe route and then break it as soon as we're across.

>3: Ask Itamie if she'd ask the others if they'd be willing to come here temporarily. That way they could get an impression of Auros as well and tell Lucia what they think. Otherwise, ask Lucia for her permission first since it's her house, and take Mephita over there and remove her party status when you are through. Explain to her that you should really have the other Guardian's permission before giving her permanent fort access, since it effects them as well.
Anybody have any thoughts on making a secondary quick travel route for monster allies, outside of the forts? The doors could have key pads or be opened by an item that explodes if they detect the wearer is hostile.

Derrick: But we can't go killing monsters just because anymore.
Lucia: Why not? What exactly has changed?
Derrick: We forgot these are people, mostly kids that have died somehow.
Derrick: We're not teaching them anything by killing them randomly.
Lucia: Well, we're not teachers!
Lucia: I learned very early that monsters ARE NOT TO BE TRUSTED.
Lucia: We gotta wipe them out if they pose a threat.
Lucia: Not play house and keep them around to have fun with.
Derrick: Exactly!
Lucia: Was the ghost guy not a threat?
Derrick: He was... But I talked him down.
Lucia: How long will that last? At any moment if he's convinced he'll attack you again!
Derrick: .....
Lucia: I'm worried about you...
Lucia: I know you want to save everyone, but these guys are lost.
Lucia: We should only be worrying about the reapers, ourselves, and the bosses.
Lucia: It's not even that hard!
Derrick: ......
Lucia: I think Emily is rubbing off on you.
Derrick: Well, maybe she is!
Derrick: Emily is right you know. We don't have to hurt anyone.
Derrick: I don't particularly enjoy killing things, do you?
Lucia: .... If I have to, I will.
Lucia: Doesn't matter if I want to or not.
Derrick: That's...
Lucia: I'm not going to roll over and die for these things, Derrick.
Lucia: And I'm not going to watch you do the same.
Lucia: But... This conversation is not the tone I want to set here...
Lucia: There's something really important I need to tell you. It involves me waking up.
Derrick: ....?
Lucia: I know how to wake up now... Ghen told me.
Derrick: Really? How?
Lucia: ... Well. It involves you.
Lucia: You met with me... The real me, didn't you?
Derrick: N-no... But I know where to find you.
Derrick: I would have visited you, but Alice pulled me away on our... outing.
Lucia: Tch...
Lucia: Listen closely, Derrick.
Lucia: On Friday this week for you. I'm going to be taken off life support where I am.
Derrick: What??
Derrick: How could you know something like that?
Lucia: Ghen told me... I don't know how reliable his information is but...
Lucia: He said it came from Nightmare himself. The reaper's leader.
Derrick: N-nightmare?
Derrick: Why is that familiar...?
Reggie: Uhhh...
Lucia: Yes. Nightmare knows of my situation. I don't know how or why, but it's the best chance I have.
Lucia: You have to do something for me, Derrick.
Lucia: If you have any kind of feeling for me as a person, please consider it.
Derrick: What?? Of course I do!
Lucia: ... I hate to word it like that, but this is as serious as I can be.
Lucia: If Friday comes to pass, I will die.

Lucia: If I die, I will lose Ira. And I will turn into one of those monsters.
Ira: .... ono
Lucia: There is nothing I can do on my own.

Lucia: At midnight, on Thursday you have to kiss me.
Lucia: My sleeping body in the hospital.
Lucia: If you don't, you will miss your only chance. And I will die.
Lucia: Don't think of it romantically... Or anything like that.
Lucia: Think of it, as your value for me.
Lucia: Do you value me enough to save my life?
Derrick: Of course!
Lucia: Can you handle losing me for real?
Derrick: .....
Derrick: I don't think I could go through that again...
Lucia: And most importantly...
Lucia: Will you defy your sister to do this..?
Lucia: Because if the answer is anything but a straight yes... I'm going to have to leave.
Derrick: ....
Derrick: Yes.
Derrick: I won't let my sister stop this.
Reggie: Damn right he won't!
Reggie: This could definitely be under better circumstances, but this was in the cards for a long time.
Reggie: I'm so happy for you, kiddo! eve
Lucia: ... I'm so relieved to hear you say that, Derrick...!!
Lucia: This topic has been burning a hole in my head for so long, but now...!
Lucia: I'm really excited..!!
Derrick: Yeah..!!
Reggie: To be clear this takes place in a hospital at midnight.
Reggie: Chances are you won't be allowed in.
Derrick: That's true.
Reggie: You'll have to devise a plan.
Reggie: But for now, tell Goth chick about the "regular" dream you had last night.
Derrick: Oh... While I wasn't here, I had a dream.
Derrick: It's been a few weeks since I had normal dreams, but in this one it felt like a Lucid dream.
Derrick: Or a memory of a time I lucid dreamed before.
Lucia: ....
Derrick: I don't remember much, but All I can hear was your voice. You were in great pain.
Derrick: Though not physical, almost a distraught screaming, like you've made a terrible mistake.
Derrick: And I could see my sister's face, pale as the dead. But for a split second after that, it's just blank.
Derrick: Nothing I can recall afterwards.
Lucia: .... I see.
Lucia: I haven't told you this, but I have had deja-vus lately.
Lucia: Mostly about the reapers.
Lucia: There are times when I feel like I'm being lied to, and others where I just feel like conversations have been rehashed beyond belief.
Lucia: There is also a sickening feeling that creeps up on me whenever I think of Alice.
Lucia: Don't get me wrong, it's not often, and I stopped holding anything towards her...
Lucia: But I just feel like I'm suffering.
Lucia: Ira knows. Sometimes I cry because it's so painful.
Lucia: I guess the best I can relate the feeling to is you dying.
Lucia: I feel like you died.
Lucia: Somewhere deep down.
Lucia: And I know it's crazy but... I feel like it's my fault.
Lucia: That's the kind of sadness that creeps up on me.
Lucia: But it's not you, or seeing you that reminds me of it.
Lucia: It's picturing Alice.
Lucia: Like she made me do it.
Lucia: And I just get so mad, and then frustrated because I said I'd let it go.
Lucia: Augh...
Lucia: I just wish, we could start over.
Lucia: Eight years of my life spent in this place, I've done a lot of self searching.
Lucia: I've grown as a person.
Lucia: I think I'm at the edge.
Lucia: I feel like there is just one more thing I can't recall.
Lucia: But I don't think that'll matter if I don't wake up.
Lucia: I wonder what life will be like.
You feel a spark within you, as if a proverbial candle has been lit aflame. Lucia's dire situation has you determined to save her, as far as you know you're the only one who can.

Bambino: Likewise.
Bambino: What topic would you like to open with?
Derrick: My blackout, back when I fought with Zendo...
Derrick: A voice was talking to me, but... It was so familiar.
Derrick: It basically said that I'm the strongest, and if I continued to ignore it Emily would die.
Derrick: When I accepted the voice... I blacked out.
Derrick: Do you guys have any insight about this?

Bambino: Derrick, look at me, now look at yourself.
Bambino: I'm calm, cool headed, and ferocious.
Bambino: Though I lack the strength to defeat the enemies that are lurking about now.
Bambino: You are shy, indecisive and oblivious to other's feelings.

Bambino: While these qualities aren't why I do not think you're ready.
Bambino: They're not exactly helping your case.
Derrick: Well, why aren't I ready?
Bambino: Because you still believe that your sister holds your key to happiness.
Bambino: If you save Lucia, I will tell you.
Derrick: ...Fine. All the more reason to!

Reggie: Do you?! Hahaha...
Reggie: See the thing is, Kiddo...
Reggie: Along with your blackout there are many weird things you haven't been noticing around lately.
Reggie: You're being Lulled out of reality, whatever your definition may be.
Reggie: I think you'd do well to pay a little more attention to little details, than to just shrug everything off.
Derrick: Okay.
Reggie: "Okay".
Reggie: Your denseness will be your reckoning, dude.
Reggie: But I believe in you.

Reggie: Just do the right thing with Lucia.
Derrick: Today, Lexii confronted me in class. And wanted to spend time with me.
Derrick: But I already made plans with Lucas a little earlier.
Derrick: Then after Lunch, Garry wanted to spend time with me.
Derrick: All in one day, everyone seemed concerned...
Derrick: It was mostly to do with my sister, Alice.
Derrick: After class, Lucas mentioned being the one to "take care" of me?
Derrick: He said us meeting was no coincidence, but for some reason he changed his tune very strangely.
Derrick: And tried to play it off like he was just messing with me, but...
Derrick: He looked sad. Every time I see him he has this dumb look on his face, but then... He seemed almost scared.
Reggie: Hmmm, I see you're more perceptive than you let on. This is good, what can you tell us about Garry's behaviour?
Derrick: He pulled me out of class to have a talk. I don't know why we needed to leave but, I went with him anyways.
Derrick: He basically told me "Not to do anything crazy".
Derrick: After I see through the "clouded glass" I mentioned before.
Derrick: I sort of got offended. Alice is my only family member, and I just got her back into my life again.
Derrick: So what if she likes spending time with me?
Reggie: Huhuhu... Yessss!
Reggie: You've come farther than I thought.
Derrick: What do you mean?
Reggie: You're not blindly rejecting what people have been saying. You're listening, but putting it on the back burner.
Reggie: Which means I can work with this.
Reggie: Here are a few things you should ask your sister next time you can with your new information.
Derrick: .....
Reggie: Why were you adopted separately and not together?
Derrick: How could she know--
Reggie: Just trust me. eve
Reggie: When she was adopted, what were any of her foster parent's names?
Reggie: How many years has it been since she moved out?
Derrick: These are easy questions...
Reggie: Trust me. eve
Reggie: Ask her what she was doing on the day of your parent's demise.
Reggie: And how she knew Lucia died.
Derrick: But she got--
Reggie: Dude!
Reggie: The last thing is, pretend your caretaker wrote you a letter saying your sister can't stay with you.
Reggie: And he'd never allow it.
Reggie: If you do all this, I believe you'll clear your clouded glass.
Reggie: And you'll see just how perfect your sister is.
Lucia: Oh wow...
Derrick: These questions she'll have answers to, I know what she'll say.
Reggie: It's not what she says, it's how she says it.
Reggie: I know these are easy questions, but we're playing her game now.
Reggie: This is a battle of composure.
Reggie: Flinging skeletons out of the closet will set people off.
Reggie: But not Alice. She will answer these questions perfectly.
Reggie: And show not a hint of deception.
Reggie: But you see, where she wins, she really loses.
Reggie: If there isn't a hint of a lie, trick or change in voice...
Reggie: If she's 100% on point...
Reggie: Scream as loud as you can "You filthy FUCKING LIAR".
Derrick: What?? I'm not doing that.
Reggie: If you do this, you'll get her. 100%
Reggie: See, she knows she's won, she's never tasted a loss. She think's she has you.
Reggie: Do this, and watch what happens.
Lucia: I agree, Derrick.
Lucia: I'd love to be there when it happens.
Lucia: I'll be there in spirit I guess.
Derrick: .....
Reggie: But as Garry said "don't do anything crazy"!
Reggie: Please allow this one exception.

Hello, everyone!
You may not know me by this nickname, but it's me, GameLord from MSPAForums! I haven't read Lucidstuck for a good while, but I finally caught up again! I hope it isn't too late to join the party and try to reach a happy ending. ^ ^'
By the way, iP, eternal respect for your amazing work. Hands down, it's one of the best fanadventures inspired by Homestuck, and it's disgusting it has so little views on MSPAFanAdventures site. =/ Still, keep it going! Your art and the way you make sprites and battle effects are fantastic! =D
Please, could somebody remind me what weapons our characters have, and what Derrick could craft for them? After all, what kind of leader is that who doesn't give any goods to his team? =P
By the way, as far as I'd love to verbally kick ass of faux!Alice, we need to play it safe. She is too smart and manipulative not to know something's going wrong with Derrick, if he suddenly gets suspicious and starts asking uneasy questions. That may backfire us ugly - she can either mess something up in "real" world in return, or in the "lucid" one. The best background for such Phoenix Wright-esque fight should be one of their dates, IMO. That would give Derrick at least a small reason to start asking about Alice more.
