Character list: https://pastebin.com/dtpemPuW

You are Emerald, an average student at Maverick Hunter High School. You’re a rising star of the kendo club, and people think you’ll be team captain by senior year. You’re also an avid player of the MMO BattleStar Legends ZX. You were up very late last night grinding for a rare sword drop. Although you didn’t manage to get the drop, you did some great raids and earned some nice gear. You pawned off all your guns, of course.

And now it’s the morning, and your childhood friend is trying to wake you up.

“Emerald, wake up! We’re going to be late!”

“Five more minutes..." You mumble.

“You always say that, and then in five minutes you’ll need five more minutes.”

You mutter something incoherent. In response, your blankets are yanked off of you. “Alright, alright, I’ll get up!” You sit up blearily, looking at your childhood friend Kristian Ei-Jun. You don’t recall ever giving her a key to your apartment but she still gets in anyway. Not that you mind; she’s the only reason that you’re not late to school on a regular basis.

“Now are you ready to go?” Kristian asks.

You hop out of bed and stumble before finding your footing. “Yeah, sure,” You respond. Thankfully you’re a reploid instead of a human, otherwise you’d have to worry about things like getting dressed and eating. Instead you can just get out of bed and walk to school. In theory, at least.

The two of you leave your apartment. On the way, you talk about...

>BattleStar Legends ZX
>What you’ve been doing at school lately
>Were your best friend Anode is
>Other?

Welcome to Emerald on Edge! I would have posted this thread on actual April Fools Day, but there was some fuckery with names and tripcodes and I didn't want to run while that was going on. Regardless, this is now a thing that is actually happening. I'll be updating on a more regular quest schedule instead of Hunter Command's usual pace.

Now who's ready for some sword waifu harem action? No? Well it's here anyway!

“So how have your classes been going?” Kristian asks you.

“Oh, you know, pretty normal,” You say, “I’ve been doing well in Practical Application of Maverick Hunting. They still want me to use a buster, but swords are the best!” You think you see Kristian blushing when you say this, but it’s probably just your imagination.

“I’m struggling a bit with Pre-21XX History, though.”

“I’m actually really good at that. I can help you with the work!” Kristian pauses. “You know, if you want.”

“Thanks for the offer,” You respond. “Weapon Engineering is also going really well. I’ve been working on a few new projects and tuning up Anode’s Misericorde. He mentioned something about wanting to freeze the wings off of things..."

“Were has Anode been, anyway?” Kristian asks.

“I’ve heard he has a minor case of influenza. I’m not sure how a reploid can catch a cold, but he managed to do it-” As you talk, you hear two people rapidly approaching you from behind. Before you can react, two people wrap you in a surprise hug.

“Hi-” A girl says.

“-Emerald!” Another girl finishes her sentence.

You turn and see who’s latched on to you. Unsurprisingly, it’s Emma and Emily Gaudroit. The twins both giggle in what they think must be an adorable tone.

“Hi girls,” You say awkwardly. “Can you get off of me now?”

“Aww, but we just-” Emily starts.

“-Want some hugs!” Emma finishes.

The twin’s double talk is really annoying a lot of the time. “We need to hurry or we’ll be late to school,” Kristian says, “So why don’t we all... walk together?” She’s obviously reluctant to travel with Emma and Emily, but the two don’t notice. You think they don’t, at least. They act like they’re on a constant sugar rush.

Your group travels to school without much further incident. Emma and Emily hold hands and skip the entire way. They try to start a conversation with you several times (usually accompanied by terrible pickup lines) but Kristian manges to shut them down.

Eventually you finally get to school and split up. You head to your homeroom class. It looks like your teacher isn’t here yet, so most of the students are just sitting around and talking. You decide to have a conversation with...

Possibly against your better judgment, you walk over to the girl who’s staring at you. You recall that her name is Fina Marea.

“Hi Emerald,” Fina says, her smile widening. She almost looks like a predator observing its prey.

“Uh, hi Fina,” You respond awkwardly.

“Why don’t you have a seat next to me?” She asks. You look around. All of the seats near her are taken.

“Err, maybe next time. I think I’ll just go sit over there,” You point to a seat next to the girl reading the book.

Fina scowls and... hisses? Who the hell actually hisses? “You don’t want to sit next to her. All you need is me!” She pats her lap. “You can sit here. I guarantee it will be nicer than sitting next to that bitch..."

Before you can respond to that, Firestorm Gopher enters the room. You quickly dash over to an open seat, notably not the one you pointed towards. Fina blows you a kiss.

What a creeper.
>>
>>2442312
Firestorm Gopher clears his throat and the room quiets. “Today we’ll be doing some live hunting,” He says. “We have a few missions today. Winter Wolfspider has been terrorizing a ski resort. Uralmesh Ursa, Fina Marea, you two will be dealing with him. You’ll be taking the teleporter, so head there on the double.” Ualmesh stands up and gives a salute. Fina stands as well, giving you a wink that might have been cute if she didn’t follow it up with a shark-toothed smile. They both head out the classroom door.

“Next, we have reports of Solstrike Saetos starting fires around the city. Again.” You see one girl facepalm. “Alta Lowe and Sarah Saetos will be hunting him. Given that he’s a moving target, you’ve been assigned two ride chasers.” The girl with the book, presumably Alta Lowe, nods and marks her place before putting the book in her bag.

The girl who facepalmed, who must be Sarah Saetos, lets out a groan. “Goddamn it Dad, why do you keep doing this..." She walks out dejectedly along with Alta.

Firestorm Gopher continues. “The next assignment is an unknown Maverick that’s taken over a fire station. We think that he has flame-based abilities and an insectoid body, but we haven’t been able to confirm it yet. The hunters assigned to this are Emerald and..."

I shouldn't enable this further but I am totally going to. She'd be a little dense and built thicc--solid alloy blade, after all. Also a total chuuni blowhard with the strength to back it up.

"...Emerald and Heather Baldwin. Since Principal Halcyon needed to make some budget cuts and the fire station is close by, you’ll be carpooling with Hammer Frog.” Firestorm Gopher finishes.

Even though you suspect that the budget cuts were made because Halcyon wanted a giant statue of himself or something, you’re happy that you get to see Hammer Frog again. He used to be your homeroom teacher, but there were some internal shakeups and he got a chance to go back to being a gym teacher like he’d wanted for a long time.

You go out to the front of the school where Frog is waiting in a minivan. “Hop in kids,” He says, the door on the side sliding open. “The Maverick’s been causing a big commotion and we want to stop him before there’s any property damage!”

You get in first, holding out your hand for Heather to come in after you. She blushes heavily. “I don’t need your help to get in the van,” She pouts.

“Alright, just trying to be friendly,” You mutter. She sits on the other side of the minivan.

“So how’ve you been, Emerald?” Hammer Frog asks you as he pulls out onto the street. “I haven’t seen you much since I started teaching gym again.”

“I’ve been pretty good,” You reply, “I’ve been working on some adjustments to my hertzbalger that I’m going to try out today. Hopefully this Maverick will be a good test subject!”

“Careful there, don’t get too eager to go out killing reploids. Some day you’ll bite off more than you can chew!” Frog chuckles. “Anyway, how’s your love life doing?”

“My whatnow?” You ask, surprised. Heather coughs.

“Your love life. I see all those girls hanging around you. There’s got to be someone you’re interested in..."

“I mean, I haven’t really thought about it before, but if I had to pick one-"

Heather cuts you off. “Do we really have to talk about your love life now? We’re going on a mission!” And then under her breath, “We can always talk about you and me later..."

“What was that?”

“Nothing!” Heather’s blushing again. “Nothing at all!”

I used the wrong image for the last one. Just imagine that it's swapped with this one.

You reach the fire station shortly after that. You hear maniacal laughing coming from the roof. “You two have fun killing the Maverick, and try not to break anything!” Hammer Frog says, opening the door to the minivan. You and Heather get out. There’s a ladder leading up the side of the building.

“Y-you go first. I don’t want you to see anything!” Heather stutters.

“Right,” You say, and start climbing. Man, Heather seems nervous around you. Did you do something wrong?

When you get onto the roof, you see the source of the laughing. It’s an insectoid reploit with several heads. Bursts of flame are coming out of his antennae. He turns to see you and Heather arriving on the roof. “It seems that they’ve sent someone to stop my rampage. But you’ll never best me, the unstoppable...”
>>
”Fire Hydrant!”

You stare. “Are you fucking serious.”

Fire Hydrant laughs again. “Of course! Soon all will learn to fear the name Fire Hydrant!”

This is it. This is your life now.

“Come and get me,” You say. You’ll take this slow, figure out his weaknesses, and then when the time is right, you’ll strike.

“Come and get you I shall!” Shouts Fire Hydrant (who the hell comes up with these names?) as he rushes towards you.

“Follow my lead,” You tell Heather. You don’t get a chance to see if she responds as the terribly named Maverick gets right up in your face. You block his charge with your beam saber and somehow manage to accidentally impale one of his heads on it.

“You’ll pay for that!” Fire Hydrant screams, flames shooting aimlessly out of his antennae. Somehow none of them manage to hit you. You wanted to find a weak point, but he seems to be made entirely of them. Heather charges in, cutting off his other peripheral head like it was made of paper.

“Now, Emerald!” Heather shouts.

“You know what?” You say to Fire Hydrant, “This is stupid. You’re stupid. Your name is stupid. Everything about you is fucking stupid. So just die already!” You cut into Fire Hydrant’s main head. Sparks begin to fly from all over his chassis.

“Curses! I have been bested!” Fire Hydrant croaks, “But you have not seen the last of Fire Hydrant!” His body starts lighting up and you dive out of the way. But instead of exploding, he just fizzles out. Even his final moments are disappointing.

“You’re dead, I’m pretty sure that’s that last I’ll see of-” You start to say, then pause. From your angle on the ground, you have a clear view of Heather’s panties. She notices you looking at her and blushes furiously.

“A-are you looking at my panties? Did you see them!?” Heather all but squeaks.

“Um... Yes?” You say hesitantly.

Heather’s already red face turns a brighter shade that you didn’t realize faces were possible of turning. “Scum! Pervert! Degenerate!” She shouts, chasing after you with her sword. Despite all of your combat training, you can’t help but book it from the extremely angry girl with a beam saber.

“I’m sorry!” You yell, jumping off the roof. It’s times like these that you’re glad you’re not a squishy human, otherwise your legs would have been crushed from the two-story impact. It still staggers you for a brief moment.

Just as you’re thinking about that, Heather jumps down right after you, still swinging her beam saber wildly. You have no idea how her legs not only handled the fall but started charging after you immediately. “You won’t get off that easily!” She continues yelling at you.

Fortunately, before she can chase you far, Hammer Frog’s minivan pulls up in front of you. He leans out the window. “Is there a problem?” He asks, eyebrow raised.

“Yes there is a Goddamn problem!” Heather shouts. “Emerald saw my-” She realizes what she’s about to say and abruptly clams up.

“Your what?” Frog asks.

“My..." You can practically see the gears turning in Heather’s head. “...secret sword technique! I didn’t want anyone to see it yet because it wasn’t ready, but he saw me use it, so..."

Frog gives her a look that says ‘I know you’re bullshitting me’ but doesn’t press the issue. “Well come on, we need to get back to school so you can get to your next class on time.”

You both hop into the minivan. The ride back is silent. You’re both too embarrassed to start up a conversation and Hammer Frog has a good enough read of the mood to not say anything either.

When you arrive back at Maverick Hunter High, Heather runs off as soon as the minivan’s doors open. You think you hear her babbling about leprechauns or something similar as she leaves at comically fast speeds. “I hope you didn’t do anything too bad,” Hammer Frog remarks.

“I’m pretty sure she’s just overreacting,” You say. You can understand why she’d be upset, but trying to kill you? That seems like a bit too much.

“Well I hope whatever that was works out for you.” Hammer Frog looks at the digital clock on the minivan’s dashboard. “If you’ll excuse me, I need to go get ready for my next class. See you later, Emerald!”

“See you,” You reply as you get out. Hammer Frog drives off.

You walk back into the school and see Sarah Saetos talking to Uralmesh Ursa. “And then he told me, ‘You can’t be the best without this practice!’ This is the third time this month that he’s gone ‘Maverick’! God, is it too much to ask for to have a single damn hunt that doesn’t involve him?” Sarah sighs heavily, looking dejected. “He’s so embarrassing..."

Uralmesh Ursa pats her on the back. “Do not worry, I am sure he means only the best for you. Training against him makes you stronger, no?” The ursine reploid says with his strong accent.

You walk by, chuckling as Sarah just groans. You do feel bad for her, but you have to admit that it’s a bit funny watching her be so embarrassed by her dad.

On your way to study hall, you bump into another girl in the hallway, quite literally. She falls backwards and lands on her rear. “Are you okay?” You ask her.

She stands up and dusts herself off. “Yeah, I’m fine,” She says. And then, as if only just realizing who she’s talking to, “Oh, Emerald! We haven’t talked in forever!”

You struggle to recall who this girl is. After a moment, you say, “Yeah, we haven’t... Nikoleta?” You’re not sure if that’s actually her name. You only vaguely recall her being a student here.

The girl smiles, not noticing your questioning tone. “You can just call me Nikki! Everyone else does.” Nikki’s expression sours. “At least, everyone who remembers I exist..." The moment passes quickly. “So, since we’re talking, do you want to hang out later? I mean, if that’s alright with you.”

“...Sure?” You respond. Nikki’s face lights up.

“Great! We can meet at-” Nikki pauses, looking at a clock on the wall. “Oh no, I’m going to be late to gym class! See you later Emerald!”

You watch in confusion as she skips away. She didn’t even specify where or when you’d meet. Oh well, it’s not like it matters too much. You’ll see her again if she wants to talk to you. Probably.

You make your way to your next class, study hall in the library. There are several people already in the room. You could study alone, but today you feel like actually talking with people. Plus you’re doing fine in your classes, so you don’t need to study. In theory, at least.

You see Alta Lowe sitting alone, deep in her schoolwork. She’s always been heavily devoted to academia. You haven’t talked with her in a while, though, and she doesn’t look that busy. You walk over and sit down next to her.

“Hey Alta, what’s up?” You ask.

Alta looks up, apparently annoyed that someone interrupted her, but after seeing it’s you appears to calm down. At least a bit. “Oh, hi Emerald, I’m just working on an essay for Known Maverick Threats class. We have to do a report on the history of a specific Maverick. Everyone else is doing well known reploids like Storm Eagle and Chill Penguin. I decided to go with a less well-known one.”

“Oh?”

“Yeah. His name is Vindaloo Lamb.”

“Oh, that’s... great.” You twitch involuntarily.

Alta closes her notebook. “Anyway, I’ve been meaning to ask. When you graduate, are you planning on going to the University of Geneva?”

You shake your head. “I want to get straight into Maverick hunting. College isn’t really necessary for that.”

“I was hoping we could go together,” Alta says, “We could be classmates, and form study groups, and maybe even date-” She pauses, blushing. “Ignore that last part. Anyway, please consider it for a bit. It would be really nice...”

“Sure, I’ll consider it,” You lie. As much as you respect Alta, Maverick fighting comes before getting a degree.

You talk with Alta for a while, but eventually the two of you part ways and get to work. The rest of study hall passes quickly. You think you have a firmer grasp of the Pre-21XX History assignment now.

As you head into the hallway, you feel a chill run down your spine. Something feels weird. Like you’re being watched.

”Oh Emeeeeerald…~” You hear a sing-song voice say from behind you. You turn to find Fina Marea standing right next to you, close enough to feel her breath on your face.

“Hi Fina?” You question more than say.

“I’ve seen you talking with a lot of other girls today.” A manic grin crosses Fina’s face. “Why would you ever need to talk to other girls? I’m all you’d ever need.”

“Uh, I..." You don’t know how to respond to this.

“Oh, I get it. You’d rather hang out with those bitches than with me.” You abruptly feel something penetrate your chassis. You look down and see a beam saber sticking out of your chest. The crazy girl just stabbed you! She looks you dead in the eye. “Well if I can’t have you, no one can!” Fina pulls the beam saber up, cutting through the rest of your chest and bisecting your head-

....wow, his hard to kill-ness makes him perfect for being a harem protag.

Emerald, beleaguered veteran of a thousand battles, looked up with dull, haunted eyes at the beaming grins of Soul Foxfire and India.

“You are literally the worst,” he said, climbing out of the pod, still displaying YOU DIED in tall, red letters--and steadfastly ignoring the blinking COMBAT RATING: WORST HUSBANDO.

“Hey, you finished it.”

“The WORST. You are Dr. Wily on a burning dildo unicycle runaway downhill through a school zone.”

“So… you liked it, then?” India asked, leaning forward, chin steepled on her folded hands.

Em turned to fix her with a haggard glare. “Who taught you how to fucking name things?”

“That reminds me, did you really hunt a guy named Vindaloo Lamb?” Foxfire asked.

“That reminds ME,” he replied. “Didn’t you carve up Anode with a black market copy of my combat data?”

The grin on the mercenary’s face froze and slowly slid off. Her face betrayed no outward change of emotion, but her eyes flit to the door.

“So hey, let me introduce the two of you to my waifu,” Em said with a calm he absolutely did not feel. “We can have a nice double date!”

India and Foxfire exchanged a look, nodded solemnly, and dashed in opposite directions as Emerald vaulted the hacked combat simulator, flambard crashing down in a meteoric swing.

And that's the thread! Special thanks to Hunter Command for a guest cameo at the end, and for making MHQ (along with Cain Labs) as a whole. I hope you all enjoyed this post-April Fools Day special!

So first of all, I FUCKING KNEW IT. Secondly, if this is canon to MHQ, then Em has now officially called his flambard his waifu. Truly a blessed day.

Thanks for the thread!

Thirdly, if this is canon to MHQ, we've seen how terrifying the Foxfire/India teamup is.

Better keep running, if Emerald catches you it won't be pretty.

Brilliant. Make this an annual thing! ... Not specifically dating sims, but just fun-having.

Yeah once a year would really bring the average up.
