Mother 3, By request Options

[Darth-Paper-Boy]

Welcome to the world of
(IMG:http://i59.photobucket.com/albums/g281/worthlessnewbie/EarthBound/RS/M3Translated.png)

The concept was brought up, and I decided I could do it easily enough since I got the guide. I'm still playing RFF and Klonoa's coming out soon, but again, the guide. Hopefully it won't be too tough to stick to. Also, the reason this isn't in the other "Let's all play Mother" topic is because I'm still in the middle of the first game on there. Anyway... let's meet the family.

(IMG:http://i59.photobucket.com/albums/g281/worthlessnewbie/EarthBound/mother_03.jpg)

Hinawa

The gentle and protective mother who's currently tending to the twins while Flint takes care of the livestock back home.

Flint
Father and loving husband, Flint is quiet and reliable.

Lucas

A bit of a weakling to be sure, but a kind and gentle boy.

Claus

Unlike Lucas, Claus is energetic and out going, though he's still a good kid.

Boney

Though far from a vicious protector, Boney is still a dedicated and lovable family pet.

Now that that's out of the way, welcome to the Nowhere Islands, Tazmily Village, beyond the Sunshine Forest to the home of Alec. Hinawa's father.

*knock knock*

Claus
"Lucas!! How long are you gonna sleep?! Get up so we can play! Get up already! The Dragos brought their babies over! They're really cute!! Hurry up!"

Blrrg. I'm up, I'm up...

(IMG:http://i59.photobucket.com/albums/g281/worthlessnewbie/EarthBound/RS/M3Translated2.png)

Anyway, downstairs...

(IMG:http://i59.photobucket.com/albums/g281/worthlessnewbie/EarthBound/RS/M3Translated3.png)

Hinawa
Good morning, Mr. Sleepyhead Lucas. Claus has been up for a while, playing with the Dragos.

He's always doin' stuff in'he? Anyway, on the way out the door...

Hinawa
Are you planning to play in your pajamas? Scoot upstairs and change your clothes.

Yes, Mom...

(IMG:http://i59.photobucket.com/albums/g281/worthlessnewbie/EarthBound/RS/M3Translated4.png)

Now it's time to plaaay! *barrels down the stairs*

(IMG:http://i59.photobucket.com/albums/g281/worthlessnewbie/EarthBound/RS/M3Translated5.png)

Oops. Sorry. (Got some Nut Bread!)

(IMG:http://i59.photobucket.com/albums/g281/worthlessnewbie/EarthBound/RS/M3Translated6.png)

Introducing Alec, Hinawa's father!

Alec
Oh, you're up, sleepyhead. Well, today's the day you head back home. I'm gonna miss you guys.

Now to randomly talk to some animals.

Cow
Moo. (All cows, no matter what they're thinking, go, "Moo." It'd be handy to remember that.)

Pig
Oink oink. (What the pig next to me says worries me...)

Pig
Don't worry about it.

Chicken
Cluck cluck? (You're awake, cluck?)

Chicken
Cluck! (You late riser!)

Frog
A story is a series of memories. Memories are remembered with other memories, and in turn become memories themselves. If you don't take care to preserve your memories, you'll forget them. So, please tell us frogs your memories of everything so far... That is what people refer to as "saving". Now then... *hop* Save your game?

Why yes!

Frog
Please be careful out there. Give my regards to the next frog you meet.

Anyway, moving on... Claus is taking on dinosaurs like it's child's play. Of course, it is...

(IMG:http://i59.photobucket.com/albums/g281/worthlessnewbie/EarthBound/RS/M3Translated8.png)

Claus
*huff* *gasp* Whew, I'm beat. I've been play-fighting with the Dragos all morning. You should play too, Lucas.

'kay!

Claus
Here, try ramming into a Drago.

Alec
[gameplay mechanics are talked about here] You'll never succeed with that sullen look on your face. That holds true for anything. Just relax!

Okay... here we go!

(IMG:http://i59.photobucket.com/albums/g281/worthlessnewbie/EarthBound/RS/M3Translated9.png)

Yeah! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lalagrin.gif)

Claus
The harder you hit them, the more the Dragos like it.

Mole Cricket
Move it! Outta the way! Make way for the great Mole Cricket!

Mole Cricket
I can't just sit idly by when I hear someone's play-fighting! I'm gonna wipe the floor with all of you! Get in my way and you're in for a world of pain!

(IMG:http://i59.photobucket.com/albums/g281/worthlessnewbie/EarthBound/RS/M3Translated10.png)

(IMG:http://i59.photobucket.com/albums/g281/worthlessnewbie/EarthBound/RS/M3Translated11.png)

After a bit of clowning around...

(IMG:http://i59.photobucket.com/albums/g281/worthlessnewbie/EarthBound/RS/M3Translated12.png)

We won!

(IMG:http://i59.photobucket.com/albums/g281/worthlessnewbie/EarthBound/RS/M3Translated13.png)

Mole Cricket
I see you have more of a spine than I thought. If you'd like, I could train you personally sometime. Next time we meet it'll be at the big Mole Cricket Hole Stadium! I look forward to seein' you there! ... Bro.

He scurries off... *squish*

(IMG:http://i59.photobucket.com/albums/g281/worthlessnewbie/EarthBound/RS/M3Translated14.png)

Hinawa
I stepped on a mole cricket. I hope it's all right... Lunch is ready, everyone. I made you your favorite, boys. Omelets!

Claus
Ooh! Lunch, lunch! Omelets!

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/lalagrin.gif) *Lucas and Claus run off*

Hinawa
You too, Dad.

*Hinawa follows the boys*

Alec
[Alec explains how to save, in case we missed the frog earlier] Now then, It's time for me to return to the story. Hey! Wait for me! You saved me some Omelets too, I hope?!

(IMG:http://i59.photobucket.com/albums/g281/worthlessnewbie/EarthBound/RS/M3Translated15.png)

(IMG:http://i59.photobucket.com/albums/g281/worthlessnewbie/EarthBound/RS/M3Translated16.png)

Claus
What's your favorite food, Mom? Oh? Omelets? Then your favorite is the same as ours? We make a good match!

Hinawa
After we're done eating, we need to get ready to go home. We have to go through the forest to get back, so we'll need to leave early.

Alec
Don't be silly. I bet the kids could make it there on their own, it's that safe. I bet even you could handle it, Lucas! Hahahaha!

*Hinawa steps out*

(IMG:http://i59.photobucket.com/albums/g281/worthlessnewbie/EarthBound/RS/M3Translated17.png)

Dear Flint,

Just like you said they would, the children have been running around the mountains and fields tirelessly since the moment we arrived.

Claus is as daring and full of energy as ever, while Lucas is still a bit coddled. But neither one seems tired of playing at all.

My father seems sad to say goodbye to his grandchildren after seeing them for the first time in so long, but we should be home by this evening.

I had forgotten how nice and refreshing the mountain air is. You're always covered in smell of sheep back in Tazmily village, so I really wish you could be here to take in this air.

The next time we visit, let's ask one of the neighbors to tend to the sheep so we can all come up here as a family.

Claus, Lucas, and I were always thinking about you. When we get home this evening, I'll start cooking some of your favorite Omelets right away.

With love, your dearest Hinawa.

Something hovers overhead...

If for some reason you hate to read, don't worry. I just figured since all I was doing for the first post was the prologue, I might as well do it in full. However, if you prefer it this way, I can just keep on like that. At least sorta. Whatever.

Kumatora
You're awake, geezer!

Wess
Where are we...? My house...?

Fuel
You and this especially tough girl got washed down the river. Good thing my dad was there, 'cause I would've pretended not to see you if it'd just been me.

Wess
... I see... Thank you, Fuel.

[Fuel and Lighter start to walk out]

Wess
Did you find that moron with us, too?

Lighter
You mean Duster? It was just you two. You know, for a couple, you sure do have a big age difference.

Wess
That moron... I mean, Duster, taking his damn merry time... He's in BIG trouble, once I find him...

Lighter
You were both unconcious. You should get a little more rest.

[Lighter walks out, Fuel runs after him]

Kumatora
Don't be dumb! Let's go look for him right now!

And so we do. We run off, and talk to people. Alle mistakes Kumatora for a "mister' and thinks "he" must get all the girls.. then...

Butch
He's the only one I told about the money I hid in the well... and now it's gone! Which means Duster stole it! That was MY money!

Lisa
We've already asked a thousand times, but where did you get it in the first place? And besides, what IS "money" anyway?!

Brenda
This sounds all too fishy if you ask me.

[Flint and Boney walk by]

Butch
Shut up, shut up! SHUT UP! Look, Wess and Duster are both thieves! But they never did anything before 'cause we never had anything to steal in our village! But we all know they'd steal good stuff like money if they ever saw it!

Kumatora
Alright! Shut your hole and listen, punk!

(IMG:http://i59.photobucket.com/albums/g281/worthlessnewbie/EarthBound/RS/After%20satellite/M3Translated_131.png)

Butch
Who are YOU?! A friend of the thieves? No violence! NO VIOLENCE!

Flint
...

(IMG:http://i59.photobucket.com/albums/g281/worthlessnewbie/EarthBound/RS/After%20satellite/M3Translated_132.png)

Flint
Old Man Wess. Let's just all of us calm down. Kicking up a fuss won't help us figure out anything, especially with Duster gone. The villagers and I believe you. So, for now, let's just wait for Duster to come back.

Wess
Duster, you moron... You better come back soon...

The mysterious group that has been tinkering with with the forest creatures in an almost toy-like fashion has finally commenced it's plan to alter the town, the lives, and even the hearts of the people.

It seems as if a grand scheme of some sort is hidden behind the actions of the suspicious peddler who has recently arrived.

However, not everyone is content to sit quietly by as the enemy continues it's odious attack from every angle.

Flint, whose family bonds were torn to shreds...

Wess and his son Duster, the Thieves of Justice...

Princess Kumatora, the mysterious girl who suddenly appeared...

Destiny is bringing together those who would use their power for good.

and what has become of Lucas, the crybaby...?

Thus ends chapter 2. Since this is a short post, have some bonus content.

Someone else up for Chapter 3? I hate chapter 3. =\
