The Flow of Starter Marriage

[Bob42]

Does anyone have a set of instructions to get to the "boon' option

thanks in advance

Hereno basically lays it out.  Magic/apron run, Lorelie has to have been to see Dante before your date, take the ring from the bathroom, give it to Lorelie on one of the first couple options (you get different pictures depending on how long you wait).

ETA: There is something more than this, because i just had a try where all of those things are true and she didn't offer a boon. I did get the zoned out eyes when finishing on her rather than the smiling picture.  Definately an addictive sex run. The other time I had a boon run, I was getting more hypnodick comments.

Thanks

Potentially stupid question:  How do I get Lorelei to go over to Dante's?

[twobears]

So, I've figured this out and ended up with a bunch of variants of bimbo Lorelei, but no luck triggering the boon.

I'm pretty sure that I am down a "love" path (I've gotten apron pictures from Annie) and I have the ring...

Yup, there's a lot more to it than the "love" path. It's not clear what variables are involved. Also it's not clear if the "love" path is even exactly that; I have some other ideas...

Even if you initially choose an apron/collar/alley your choices along the way can push you into other paths. When you message Annie in the current chapter you’ll get an apron/collar/alley pic which seems to indicate the path you ended up on. That’s what I’ve been using as an indicator of if I stayed my the intended path.

Even with that how much interest you show in someone seems to change the outcome so choosing to message or not message someone can affect your path, how horny they are changes it too.

At this point I’ve at least gotten most of the paths at least once except Renee MC you, her card MC Emma and still no space snake.My running theory is the polite answers lead more to the apron path and the horny answers to alley, and focusing on Lorelei helps with the apron/enchantment and focusing on Renee leads to the alley path, possibly on her MC you but I haven’t really had much luck getting the intended outcomes.

I've also been unable to trigger the Lorelei boon... which I'm unashamedly interested in using to grow Allisons boobs specifically because magic boob growth is best. Just the apron route doesn't seem to be the only trigger, is it perhaps thst I'm showing too much interest in every female? Any assistance is appreciated.

DARK ROOM (OPTIONAL)
An extremely rare scene, only visible in a narrow set of runs. You will wake up in the pitch dark with sleep paralysis, unable to move or speak; Allison will be muttering some MC mantras in her sleep. You’re not the one in control here; not clear who is.

There are several permutations of this scene:
•   Other people might be in the room (I’m guessing Dante (fucking Allison), Renee (MCing Allison), and Paula, your ex from the window in Ch. 3: The Butterfly Effect (blowing you))

Something, later, keep this speed, stop, mouth, nothing

Guy, friend, work, yeah, I'm, what, call, can't, bed, cuddle

Can't, gf, haven't, sex, explicit, really, that, text, us, Annie, work, forgotten, what, coffee, great, open, allison, accepting, coworker, renee, lorelei, bathroom, left, yeah, fuck, opened, boobs, mention

Ignore, something, relationship, sex-slave, obey, submit, face

[hereno]

A boon for you all 

Something tells you that you should stop and look.
This can be dealt with later.
Stop... it's time for that thing she loves.
"You will cook and serve dinner naked tomorrow."
You gently tease her legs apart to continue fucking her.
"I should deal with that text."
"Nothing important. Now, we both have big days tomorrow."
The next morning you decide to sleep in.
   
You find one that reminds you of that time with Natalia.
OK time for breakfast.
So, you head off to work.
I'm over it. What's up?
I'm so sorry! Just like that?
It's OK. What do you need?
Let me think about it.
Then you get to work; it's better to talk with Allison about this in person.
Time for other activities. The situation with Annie can wait.
... cuddle up to Allison for the night.
The next morning you wake up alone.
   
You check your phone.
I still love you, but I don't know if I can.
I'm not trying to hurt you.
I can't risk my relationship.
We haven't talked about it.
I'm not sure how'd she react to us having sex.
If I'm going to risk it, I need an explicit commitment.
I can't turn that down. I'll come.
You reply call Allison.
... head off to work.
"Wanted to remind them I work here. What are you up to?"
"She's doing great! How's... I'm sorry, I've forgotten his name."
"We should grab coffee sometime. Away from work."
"No reason to complicate things."
You say get back to work.
And then you work until it's time to head home.
You help her up, and head to dinner.
You knock.
"Excuse me for a moment." You duck to the bathroom.
So, you follow Renée into the kitchen, having taken the ring.
"How did you know about that?"
"I can't believe I'm doing it, myself."
"She's fine with me fucking Annie."
"How can I say no to that?"
You follow her back to the living room.
You ask what the conversation you walked into was.
As the evening winds down, you say your goodbyes.
You turn to point her out to Allison.
   
You head to the car.
"No! What makes you think that?"
"Is everything OK? You've been acting different lately."
say, "Well, then, roadside blowjob?"
You finish the drive home.
Excuse yourself to the bathroom.
... join Allison in the bedroom.
"I have something I want to do to you."
"Let's talk about you being my maid."
"You'd love to be my maid more often."
"We're going to fuck now."
Then say, "I want to come on your face."
... hand her a towel.
And then you dream.
And then your dream continues.
And then your dream continues.
And then your dream continues.
And then then during the night...

----THE BOON----
The next morning at breakfast...
"What a great idea, slave."
You come inside her.
... stand and collect your dishes from the table.
You head to work.
You text Renée back.
And then you slip the ring on.
... hear a familiar voice behind you.
You work until work until it's time for coffee with Emma.
"I don't know. Her life seems to have fallen apart."
"The thing with Annie has been kind of eating my life."
You reply see Renée walk into the coffee house.
"Your new breasts look amazing."
"What happened between Allison and Dante while we were in the kitchen last night?"
"You will blow me in the restroom here."
"I'd love to get together once I'm back from Annie."
"So, there's something I'd like to do."
You then let her into the restroom first, and then slip in.
And then you come on her face.
And then you update Allison.
Hang out until it is time to visit Lorelei.
So you come in, giving her a hug.
You remove the ring from your finger, and put it on the table.
"I have to ask, then: what is in your power to give?"
"So, about Renée."
"And now, would asking you to bed be inappropriate?"
You take your leave, and return to work.
You work until it's time to head home.

----MC EMMA IN THE CAFE----
The next morning at breakfast...
"What a great idea, slave."
You come inside her.
... stand and collect your dishes from the table.
You head to work.
You text Renée back.
And then you slip the ring on.
... hear a familiar voice behind you.
You work until work until it's time for coffee with Emma.
"You would never talk to HR about me, no matter what I do."
"You will go out with me."
"Next week? I should be back from Annie on Monday."
"You will send me a nude selfie tonight."
"Her new guy dumped her. By the way, how's... yours?"
"Nothing really. Is that project still stressing you out?"
You reply see Renée walk into the coffee house.
"Your new breasts look amazing."
"You will blow me in the restroom here."
"I'd love to get together once I'm back from Annie."
"Thank you for a great time in the kitchen."
"So, anything else new in your world?"
You then update Allison.
Hang out until it is time to visit Lorelei.
So you come in, giving her a hug.
You remove the ring from your finger, and put it on the table.
"I have to ask, then: what is in your power to give?"
"Did you ever meet my ex, Paula?"
"And now, would asking you to bed be inappropriate?"
You take your leave, and return to work.
You work until it's time to head home.

----MC EMMA IN THE OFFICE----
The next morning at breakfast...
"What a great idea, slave."
You come inside her.
... stand and collect your dishes from the table.
You head to work.
You text Renée back.
And then you slip the ring on.
... hear a familiar voice behind you.
You work until work until it's time for coffee with Emma.
"Her new guy dumped her. By the way, how's... yours?"
"Well then, dinner sometime?"
And then you wait for Renée.
"Kind of a problem with a coworker."
"I'm sorry we're missing the party."
"Thank you for a great time in the kitchen."
"Your new breasts look amazing."
"I'd love to get together once I'm back from Annie."
"So, anything else new in your world?"
You then update Allison.
Hang out until it is time to visit Lorelei.
So you come in, giving her a hug.
You say, "I don't remember seeing anything like that there."
You ask, "Have you asked Dante and Renée about it?"
You say, "I could ask Allison to go over and look."
You promise her that you will search for it.
You take your leave.
You work until you hear Emma come back to her cube.
“You'll tell HR it was just a misunderstanding, all settled now."
"In exactly ten minutes, you'll meet me in the supply room and give me a blowjob."
"Wonderful." You head to the supply room to wait.
"Just do what I tell you."
So you come in her mouth.
... get back to work.
You work until it's time to head home.

Wild! Despite ample experimentation I hadn't made the connection that seems so obvious with this data, that the mysterious power to simply issue commands to Emma and to Renée in the coffee shop derives from wearing Lorelei's magic ring.

The Emma in the office path doesn't seem to work for me, at the point of "Her new guy dumped her. By the way, how's... yours?" I don't see that option.

The Emma in the office path doesn't seem to work for me, at the point of "Her new guy dumped her. By the way, how's... yours?" I don't see that option.

This is the fault of 4.0.3's fixes. Note that there was a continuity error in this path:

"She's doing great! How's... I'm sorry, I've forgotten his name."

but then:

"Her new guy dumped her. By the way, how's... yours?"

The management apologizes for any inconvenience this may cause.

I wonder if it recharges every day or if there's something you have to do to it. It seems to work on Emma or Renee but not both?  Possibly on Lorelei, I didn't explore whether it doesn't work on her if you've already used it at the coffee shop.

The management apologizes for any inconvenience this may cause.

Can the management provide any information on the conundrum of how to get Emma irritated enough to report you to HR, then?

[tods1976]

Thank you for this Hereno!

A couple throughout the whole story questions.

You are offered the option to finish several different ways in a number of the different sex scenes.  Has it been figured out which direction that pushes you/the woman you are with?  This is my best guess at the moment:
"On her tits" for increased exhibitionism/sharing
"On her face" for increased control/subservience
"On her stomach" maybe love slave direction?
"In her mouth" maybe increase libido?  Wild guess here.
"Inside" really not sure but some of these are on the lowest MC runs (except for Allison on the breakfast table and Renee in the restroom.)

If you are on an alley run are you doing any intentional MCing?  When I've tried that direction it seems to be everyone just being delightfully slutty.

Do we know what stats the very first choice (ignore/peek/look at phone) is pushing?  I know peek increases the difficulty of the first MC on Allison and makes her trust you less. 

What things should I be emphasising/ignoring to increase the likelihood of Emma showing up in my cube so she can meet in the cafe?  I've had runs where Lorelie talks about her during sex (so I've obviously shown sufficient interest in her) but she doesn't show up.

If Renee blows you in the coffeehouse, you take a picture which Allison wants to see if and only if you come on her tits.

For Emma, I think she is most likely to ask you to coffee on a high libido run.  I got to hypnotize her in the cafe today and left my notes in the other thread if that’s helpful.  It was a high libido and high dominance run where I convinced Lorelei that I had hypnotic powers at our first meeting.

[Daphne]

OK, by way of apology:

(a) When you first talk with Emma, and she adds "Over coffee" to her exiting comment, you will likely get blue-dress Emma the next day when she asks you to coffee. Blue-dress Emma is less likely to report you to HR, although it is still possible.
(b) BSD-daemon-shirt Emma is more likely to report you to HR over you asking her out when she just told you to knock it off.

(In story-world terms, depending on your prior choices, Emma will either be friendly but not interested in you romantically, or will be sufficiently interested in you that she is willing to entertain dating you even though you have a girlfriend. It's not required to MC her to get her to go out with you in the latter case, although MC works too.)
