More seriously, I do think getting proper soc with gang members is necessary. J just joined and while he's been helpful we still haven't got much interaction, partly precisely because he just joined so easily. And Stern is tote stranger atm. We may just in this as excuse to fight but while we are at it we may as well do it right. Power of friendship is also strength and all that

[X] Train, and get your new skills under your belt
[X] Visit one of your gang members:
-- [X] Stern
You decided to train, and to train by battling your latest recruit; Stern. You made the call and left a message with your address for her to meet up with you when available. As you waited, you put yourself through your standard workout routine, only this time you were practicing the new forms and techniques you saw in your dreams. Notable among them was the defensive technique that would not only make you nigh unbreakable, but would force the enemy to feel all the pain and damage their spell would've normally caused you. The technique, Fang Mountain, was originally made to deal with physical attacks; however, the memories you've witnessed last night showed Klaus using it against heavy bombardment magic without any issues. And if he could do it, then so could you.
The memories and training also helped you refine the Spinning Break to the next level; allowing you to catch and return physical ranged attacks as well as you could magical shooter spells, if you're assessment is accurate. In other words, you had master the techniques to overcome and conquer the...Stahl Jäger that forced to to flee. The next time you face the giant of steel, you will show it the strength you have acquired; that you are no longer weak and so pathetic as to cower or be crushed by its heel.
It was at that moment you heard the doorbell ring; opening the door, you found that Stern had finally arrived, staring you down with a blank expression that revealed nothing. It frankly made you a bit nervous; you knew that you yourself tended to be closed off, but Stern took it to a whole new level. Such a cool, collected demeanor that was steadfast no matter what; such a thing was something you personally desired for yourself. Perhaps this will give you some insight into acquiring it for yourself?
Regardless, you wave hello to her and start talking, "Thank you for coming. Follow me, I'll show you where I train for my more...explosive techniques."
"...Understood." Stern solemnly replied, quietly following your lead as you directed her to the open expanse outside town you use to train yourself. Once there, Stern raises a barrier and you enter your Armed Form, and the battle begins.
It's one that's completely different to what you're used to; in stark contrast to the other strike arts practitioners, Stern keeps to the skies and is content to barrage you with shooting spells. Volley after volley of her Pyro Shooter is sent at you, only for you to retaliate with Spinning Break to send them right back at her. She's nonplussed; simply shielding and raising up a barrier to tank the attacks without any issues. Then she points her staff right at you, with it wickedly calling out, [Rubellite]
You're immediately caught in a bind, one you can't break out of even with all your strength, and you can already see Stern charging up a powerful bombardment spell while you were trapped. Well...since you couldn't break out, you might as well see if you've managed to get your other new technique down. You being channeling mana throughout your entire body, putting yourself in the Fang Mountain, right as both Stern and her staff declare the name of their attack: "[Blast Fire]"
A wave of pure fire and energy crashes into you, but you feel no pain; no force of impact or burning from the flames, at most you just feel some warmth and your mana steadily being exausted keeping up your defense. Finally, the spell and binds end, and as the dust settles you see Stern visibly exhausted and beaten up, as if she took the spell's impact instead of you. Perfect.
Stern flies down and looks you in the eye, her composure still the same despite the beating she took. "That was...impressive. And unexpected."
You nodded in thanks and replied back, "It was a new technique; I wanted to fight you to see if I had truly learned it properly, which it seems like I had."
Stern nodded in reply, "So it seems..."
Just then, you hear a ringing tone, to which Stern replied to by checking a message on her device. She then turned to you and spoke, "I have to go. Urgent family matters."
"...Ah, I see. Very well, thank you for your time." With that, you waved Stern off as she flew back home; taking note in your mind that Stern had a family and considered it important, judging by how quickly she reacted to a message from them.
You spent the rest of the day going through stances and cooling down, as well as preparing for school tomorrow.
School was...well, school. It wasn't something you enjoyed, but nor was it something you dreaded either; it simply was. You didn't really interact with your peers if you could help it, and in turn they mostly left you alone. You answered any questions you were asked, cooperated in any group projects, and ultimately were as unobtrusive as possible. Mainly because you had more important matters to attend to, matters regarding your ambition and what has been passed onto you by your ancestor.
However, your school, St. Hilde Academy of Magic, did possess a key asset in attaining said goals; it was the premiere school under the auspices of the Saint Church. As such, it has the most comprehensive collection of books, literature, and other records pertaining to Ancient Belka than any other school would. You had used the library before in hopes of stoking your ancestor's memories or to better understand them, but to no avail. However, with recent events having broadening your perspective to yo-his mind, you decided that another go around may prove to be more fruitful this time around.
You begin to scour the shelves, pulling down book after book to go over; all in the hopes of getting some manner of results. As you do, you end up brushing up against someone else's hand, as it appears that someone else was looking for the same books you were.
"Oh, I'm sorry! I didn't realize you were reaching for this one; I though you were grabbing A Perspective of Currency Over the Centuries: An Analysis of the Economis of the Belkan Empire. If I had known I wouldn't have-"
You cut her off, "O-oh, it's no problem, really! I should've actually paid more attention to my surroundings," you then turn to her and continue talking, "By all means, I can wait until-"
The rest of your brain finally catches up with your eyes as you actually take in who you're looking at; hair like woven gold, eyes of ruby and emerald, and a presence that's bright as the sun, and subtle as a flower.

"At that moment, you knew that your life had forever changed by meeting the Saint Princess; but it wasn't until many years later that you have fully realized that it was because you had fallen in love with her"
You hand gently laid over hers, you could feel how delicate and soft her hands were; how fragile and transient they felt in you own, even as you could feel the pulse and warmth from them.
"When you first took her hand, you were shocked at how...cold it was. Later, you learnd of what had happened, and how it robbed her of her hands and forced her to use such cold and lifeless imitations."
"Even if Eremiah's work was exquisite and surpassed any others; the puppet limbs he offered were but a pale copy of what should have been..."
"Even if Eremiah's work was exquisite and surpassed any others; the puppet limbs he offered were but a pale copy of what should have been..."
"Um...you can, uh, let go now?" Hearing Olivie her speak snapped you out of your stupor, and your hastily removed your hand from hers. You took note of her uniform; the grade school one, which put her a year or so under you judging by her appearance. You quickly got down and started to leave, but the girl called out to you. "Wait!"
She ran up to you and proceeded to introduce herself, "Hi, my name's Vivio Takamachi! What's yours?" She then noticed the books you were carrying. "Ooh, I was actually looking to pick up Chronicles of the Unification Era, Vol. VII; do you mind if I borrow it after you? And you're the first person I've seen who's also picked up Shutra and Belka: A Bond Between Kingdoms Past, Fourth Edition, have you read it yet? What are your thoughts on..."
Appearance, demeanor, presence...you could not deny it; the one who was standing before you must be Olivie in one form or another. Being in her presence, looking upon her in reality and not in the visions of ages past causes a surge of emotions through you. Looking at her, you feel you must...
[X] Protect her; look at her, she is soft, delicate, and clearly a scholar first and foremost given how swiftly she's rattling off facts from such illustrious texts. And why wouldn't she? This isn't an era of war, but of peace; there was no reason for her to take up the Kaiser Arts, especially if she wasn't haunted by the past as you were. No...you could not allow anything to stain such purity and innocence; where Klaus had failed, you will succeed. You will keep her safe, and away from the horrors that had consumed Olivie in the past; you will accept nothing less, and will gather all the power and strength you could to do so.
[X] Defeat her; it would be...so easy, for you to just fight her and prove that the Hegemon has surpassed the Sankt Kaiser. You have trained and bled every year for such a moment, and she hasn't appeared to even recall what the Kaiser Arts even are. Maybe this will put the past at rest, perhaps this victory will overwrite the defeat of ages long gone, and help to assuage the eternal guilt of your ancestor. Klaus could not surpass Olivie, but you could; you could do so here and now.
[X] Cherish her; maybe it was the memories influencing you, maybe Klaus's wistful regrets were stronger than his ambitions, but it ultimately matters not. Maybe it was running from reality, but the happiest moments of your life revolved around the brief moments of joy that your ancestor had with the Sankt Kaiser. Now that the opportunity to repeat those happy days with Olivie has shown itself, you have decided to selfishly indulge yourself in creating your own. Klaus my be spinning in his grave at your foolishness, but damn it all you couldn't resist...you were just too weak...

On one hand, Defeat Her is the Punch The Strong option here.
ON the other hand, this way means we need more power, which will in turn lead to more Punch The Strong options.
At the cost of this one vote in which I will not vote to Punch The Strong, even if it hurts me, I will ensure that the future is full of opportunities for The Strong Punching.

So that was decently productive- we got a general feel for Stern's fighting style, her overall temperament, and maybe some avenues of her character to explore in due course. Now for Vivio...
I don't see the Defeat Her option as viable. If this were literally anyone else I'd lean toward it, but Ein just has too instinctive a reaction toward her that is affectionate and compassionate for me to consider Punch a viable option. Not to mention that I can't think that she would take to it well after the fact. Cherish feels like going too far the other end though; although she is definitely heavily influenced by "her" past, Ein is still Ein. I can't really imagine her accepting this- she herself admits that it's a sign of weakness in her eyes, and I both can't see that doing great things for her, and I just don't see it as being the choice she'd make. She is certainly... emotionally compromised right now, but I don't think it'd be to the point that she'd go so far. Protect is a nice happy medium. We're still on the track to be Strong, and we have a goal now- to keep Vivio safe, and avoid the mistakes of the past from repeating. It gives her a strong motivation to do what she does, doesn't particularly feel out of place, and is decently faithful to the character. So let's do it.

It scours my soul like bleach-coated razor blades to pick the "protect waifubait" option, but this the vote that most directly resolves Klaus' issue from his lingering memories. All his fucked-up-ness and inherited regrets cursing his family stem from being unable to keep Olivia alive when it mattered. To be the strongest was a means, but this is the end.
Defeat option is uncertain ground that opens the opportunity of getting bodied hard depending on where Not-Olivia stands right now in terms of power, which will only cause Klaus' PTSD to flare up and subsume more of Einhard's mind in reaction if she fails to pass the resulting battle. It leaves a lot up to chance; reward with risk.
Cherish option is blatantly begging Einhard to get her mind devoured by more of Klaus' curse like the rest of the bloodline before her and fucking up her mental state even further after the titanic blunder that was the last vote to activate trauma.

I dislike the Defeat Her option, Beating your greatest opponent when they barely knows how to fight is meaningless.

I will do it. I will vote to hit the Vivio.
Does protect not involve befriending her? It sounds like it's going for a protect from afar vibe. Not sure how I feel about that, but it should lead to some fun interactions with friends.

None of the vote options are good, strictly speaking. They all have its problem Which makes sense. This is a trauma that cross time and space. The behavior caused by are not going to be sunshine and roses. On the other hand, all of them have avenue in which it can be directed into something healthy
so,, right Defeat is meaningless on its face value. It was not Defeating Olive that Klaus/Einhart pursue. It is attaining power that surpass her. Defeating an image of Olivie that doesn't have her strenght is pointless in that regard. This is seems to be the most no no. On the other hand, this is a route that will lead into rivalry with Vivio. OOC wise we know Vivio knows and learns how to fight. If she beaten by Einhart (if ....), she'll likely just bounce up again and wipe the floor by Einhart some other time. Defeating a weak image of Olvie is meaningless, but to never lose against her image in this life? Always challenging, always striving to win. That's could be a worthy solution to Klaus' regrets. The problem is that it rely on either a) our OOC knowledge of Vivio or b) inciting VIvio to take up fighting, which would be in contradiction with Klaus original desire. Also enflame antagonism between Ein and Vivio ... but honestly, I'm not too worried on that. This is Nanoha, where befriending best achieved through firepower. J is a more worrying cause of worry in that regard
Oh, and if its end up with Einhart got shoved her own ass instead? Well, all's right with the world then. I mean, sure, it's additional trauma fodder. But it basically just status quo. Ein too, will just rebound and keep getting stronger. And now route opens for Vivio and co to help her as in canon. Although things would be more complicated here, what with the Bancho thing going on.
Protect ... well this the reverse of the above. Where we can tell by OOC knowledge that Defeat route have chance of working out for the better, we know that from OOC knowledge this won't, that Einhart works on many incorrect assumptions here. There's no way, 'protect her from engaging in violence' is going to work. I see this would end up similiar antagonistic route, 'I'll beat you to stop you from doing this' kind of thing. Except I see this route's antagonism to be more likely to cause feeling. It is possibly to perceived as carrying 'looking down' tone, that's kind of restrictive protecting, and well, Vivio is a sweethear, but kids and their rebellion. On the other hand, Nanoha's daughter. Vivio is just as likely to bash 'you don't have to fight along/we can protect each other/something along those lines' down into Einhart's head. So it could still work out for better, provided Ein can get some enlightenment down the road.
On the other hand, that presumes Einhart took route of stopping Vivio from engaging in combat/violence/dangerous situation. Which I admit on second thought, is not necessarily true. Something more like a Tuxedo Kamen route could also viable outcome. Which would be a helluva fun, especially if Vivio co is involved in the gang war thing.
Still, it remain working on wrong presumption. Well, admitedly all the options do. Einhart needs (and will get) some wake up call here regardless of choice.
Cherish ... not gonna lie, my heart call to this route. Fluffy waffy fuwa fuwa. I'm a sappy person. ... but that's not what Einhart set to be, no? Nor it what Klaus wanted. Weakness is a sin, remember? Because the weak cannot protect that which they cherish. It will not provide resolution. Oh there's could be positive effect from admitting weakness. Possibly less obsession to strenght, for one. But plenty of potential bad effect too.
Hmm.
...
[X] Defeat her; it would be...so easy, for you to just fight her and prove that the Hegemon has surpassed the Sankt Kaiser. You have trained and bled every year for such a moment, and she hasn't appeared to even recall what the Kaiser Arts even are. Maybe this will put the past at rest, perhaps this victory will overwrite the defeat of ages long gone, and help to assuage the eternal guilt of your ancestor. Klaus could not surpass Olivie, but you could; you could do so here and now.
In somewhat IC reasoning:
It is the right thing, to do, to just pick up fight with someone who came up to friendly chat with us, and that we perceive as weak for that matter? No, not really. But so what? We may not wishing to be villain exactly, but we already walk on a unwholesome path. Picking fights with people out of the blue, joining a gang and fighting turf war. Weakness is a greater sin still.
If she is indeed weak as they are. So be it. It shall be some measure of solace for us, that the Olvie in this life in not one embarked on path of violence and wars. That in this life at least, our incarnation are stronger than hers. After, if needs be, amends can be made, new paths can be sought. If our challenge led her to seek strength? That too is fine. Yes, it will grief our heart to see Olivie on that path again, but in the end, it is better for one to be strong than to be weak. We'll simply rise even stronger. If we turn out to be the weaker one? Then nothing changes. We are weak, that is known already. Our life quest is for the sake of changing that, but we cannot do that if we wallow ourselves in a lie of being stronger.
If our assumption of our strength is correct, then let it be validated. If its an illusion, the sooner it is dispelled the better. Whatever the truth is, whatever the outcome would be, it must be known.
Fight her.
so,, right Defeat is meaningless on its face value. It was not Defeating Olive that Klaus/Einhart pursue. It is attaining power that surpass her. Defeating an image of Olivie that doesn't have her strenght is pointless in that regard. This is seems to be the most no no. On the other hand, this is a route that will lead into rivalry with Vivio. OOC wise we know Vivio knows and learns how to fight. If she beaten by Einhart (if ....), she'll likely just bounce up again and wipe the floor by Einhart some other time. Defeating a weak image of Olvie is meaningless, but to never lose against her image in this life? Always challenging, always striving to win. That's could be a worthy solution to Klaus' regrets. The problem is that it rely on either a) our OOC knowledge of Vivio or b) inciting VIvio to take up fighting, which would be in contradiction with Klaus original desire. Also enflame antagonism between Ein and Vivio ... but honestly, I'm not too worried on that. This is Nanoha, where befriending best achieved through firepower. J is a more worrying cause of worry in that regard
