...just to be sure, you're somehow implying that Marianne, the woman who's idea of retribution for throwing her daughter into a mud puddle and insulting her was to crash said offender's dinner party 'accidentally' in a giant robot... that this same woman will somehow be inclined to fix Kallen's vocabulary.

Yeah! We'll have her swearing in English! Like a proper Britannian noble! :V
 
Right, you were still... getting used to that.

Unbidden, a soft smile crept over your face as you swept a hand through Kallen's hair gently.

Your... girlfriend? Groaned and flexed, twisting as she yawned and opened her eyes-

D'aww :)

[X] Boot Camp: Although Jeanne isn't quite comfortable enough to begin socializing with you as an equal, she is willing to impart some lessons in physical training. There is, of course, the possibility that you could manage to get her to relax a bit in the meantime. Possibly even in your company. Cost: 50; Upkeep: 0; DC: 40; Rewards: Jeane SL Progresses, Possible Martial trait.

I'd like to work on deepening our relationship with Jeanne

[X] Red Queen: Kallen is obviously an extremely talented knightmare devicer. Perhaps you could introduce her to your mother and sister, both of whom share that trait. In all likelihood, they'll hit it off splendidly. Cost: 0; Upkeep: 0; DC: 30/60/90; Rewards: Kallen's SL Progresses, Chance of Nunnally's SL progressing, Slight Chance of Jeanne's SL Progressing.

And introducing our girflriend to our mom and little sister can't go badly at all.

...I'll make lots of popcorn :grin:
 
[X] SCIENCE!: Aside from his rather convoluted and... insane records, you honestly know little about Dr. Kenshin Jaegar and less about his assistant. You should perhaps fix that. After all, if it turns out you can trust the man, you might be able to broach the topic of certain secrets with him later. Cost: 50; Upkeep: 0; DC: 20; Rewards: Kenshin's SL Progresses, low chance of Learning or Piety trait.

El. Psy. Congroo. Also, a learning/piety trait is the most useful after intrigue, and we really need good SL with the most unpredictable/suspicious/deranged member of our party.

[X] Euphie: Last year you helped your pink-haired sister navigate the waters of the imperial court. You're still slightly concerned with her given that Cornelia is out on campaign. You'll take some time to look in on her, and maybe take Nunnally with you. Cost: 100; Upkeep: 0; DC: 20/40; Rewards: Euphemia's SL Progresses, Chance of Nunnally's SL Progressing.

A diplo advisor, in my quest? Yes please! (Please don't crit-waifu her SV...)

I kinda want to increase the relationship with our Military Advisor.

I like Euphemia, I want us to increase our SL with her.

I think Cornelia's still expecting us to watch over Euphemia, and I feel that Jeane needs some attention too, given that she's been with us since the beginning and she's still stuck at SL 2. Kallen is fine for now, imo.

I really see no reason as to why we should go for Kallen's SL action right now, considering that we've just boosted her SL by quite a lot this turn in our dealings with Isacc. She can wait one more turn imo. Also, we aren't all that desperate for a Diplomacy Advisor due to the fact that our friends at the Walpurgis Club allow us to make contacts using our 23 Intrigue instead of our 12 Diplomacy, so Euphie isn't really all that important anymore (if we really need a Diplomacy Advisor, we cash in on one of Isacc's favors to us; he has Stewardship 25 (like Schneizel, and remember that Schneizel was the one who got us Jaeger as our Learning Advisor...), so we can use him to find a better Diplomacy Advisor candidate than Euphie.
As of now, I think we should focus on raising the SL of our advisors (and maybe even get some new traits for ourselves, which would be very useful).

Relaxing with our only male friend and away from our current retinue sounds good.

Jeanne deserves greater investment towards her SL, and deepening Lelouch's close bonds with Euphemia is always beneficial. She may not be able to offer any significant material support (or at least on her own without calling on Cornelia), but her affection has significant impacts on what Cornelia does. And besides, shes the closest royal relation Lelouch has, it'll be in character for him to spend some time with her. Especially considering the newfound relationship he has.

There are few solutions more permanent than temporary ones. Putting off an action 'because we can,' without a good argument for why the other actions are important to do now is poor reasoning.

I have also argued for real benefits for getting this particular action out of the way now. Mainly, that getting Marianna to teach Kallen could easily push her into a completely new level of combat prowess. This action is the best shot we have at that by far, and the earlier we get it done the sooner Kallen can start using those abilities to our benefit. And it's hard to say specifically how much time that will take, since it is something that isn't dealt with directly in the action, but an opportunity we're hoping to open up with the action. Could be immediate, could require a full next turn of Kallen being trained.

It is also one of the two actions that can advance Nunnally's SL. The other being Euphemia's which, admittedly, has better odds.

But more than that, one of the things that really cinches it for me is...

We've actually just been taking dinner inside our own room with Kallen because Lelouch hasn't introduced Kallen to his family yet.

Introducing your girlfriend to your family is important yo. No telling what shenanigans they'll get up to if they find out from another source.
