Karma. This is payback for always choosing stupid ones like the kings and the academy anything that is boring. 🤣🤣🤣

Valerie Boudreau

Erin and the Earl

Christie

NOOOOOOOOOOOOO, 2 Votes. 2 f*cking votes ;_;

NinjaChicken

I agonized for over a day on my choice, and now I honestly regret it. Wish I could change it to courtship innkeeper.

Moogly

Recount. I am sure there are 3 more votes for courtship somewhere.

DThornz

Ahhhh nooo, 2 votes! Who knows when we'll next run into any kind of courting situation for Erin. Must we wait volumes for an elusive Mating Rituals 3 or something similar now? :(

Gabe Canada

Two. Bloody. Votes.

I really wanted The Courtship of the [Innkeeper]. I really hope she writes that one as well. The [Knight] one seems like more of the same for me.

ikr

ProSailor22

Gotta love it when over 1700 people collaborate then 2 little shit stains literally screw it up at the last moment

I assume these are statistics that are visible to Pirate. They have no value to us beyond sating idle curiosity.

The Agent Colson

I still hold to that each patron should only have one vote. It would also serve as a way to gauge how large of a percentage of patrons actually participate.

longhairdfreak

You know, seeing all the votes, makes me realize Pirate is making good money. I find that very satisfying. Such talent and hard work, especially for those that really appreciate the ride along we get to do, should be supported and encouraged. Happy for her. I’m a new acid jar, and I’m happy to be a part of it all.

ProSailor22

Contrarily I feel the circle of friends is the one that would happen with or without the side chapter

Ali Shahid

Come on people ! Get " Innkeeper's world of friends "up there. The mating ritual one might be funny but it is this Friends one that has the most potential to move the plot forward and provide the most versatile and intriguing inteeactions. The Rabbiteater thing is interesting but do we really need a whole chapter's worth of it ? I just feel that it'll be wasted.

Poor Pirate lol. Sets up a poll to decide and gets a concerted effort from the voters to get multiple options lmao

ProSailor22

or maybe a 2-parter.4

John Test

Keep it tied so we get a 2 for 1

The Agent Colson

No, it does not

The Agent Colson

Reminder that Erin is less than a year out from surviving a sexual assault. Even if the man who attempted it is dead and can't hurt her anymore, the trauma may take a while to heal. Old-style courtship, though? Showing Erin she's loved without necessarily bringing anything physical into it? That can help

Ram nevet

people vote for friendship too and go for the 3 way tie!

Frosty Rene

Keep it tied

Benjamin Kyle Gullick

Ah but you are forgetting that this is a magical world of potions.

DThornz

Must...keep it....tied.

Joshua

Keep it tied! Keep it tied!

Matt

Looking back on Erin's sexuality in the mating rituals sub-stories it seems to me that Erin might be A-sexual. At the end of the second mating ritual chapter Erin tried to "take care of her needs", but found out that she had none. It seemed from her few statements regarding her sexuality that she just never gets "hot and bothered between her legs". If the case is that she is A-sexual that a intellectual relationship with Niers would work for Erin, but i not think that is the type of relationship that Niers wants. Just a thought. im sure it will be funny no matter what.

ProSailor22

You know you could do a two-parter like that Numbtongue interlude last volume.

Mayed Bin Shabib

The courtship of the Innkeeper sounds sooo fun!

ProSailor22

I agree about Niers, too old and too small. But I think a relationship would be good to help Erin grow as a character and grow away from her issues with Intimacy. It would be extra nice to see a romantic relationship in a story that was simply part of a person's life (as they are undeniably an important part of life) rather than as the main focus of the story as most novels with romance tend to present them. It would just have to be a person and relationship that's true to her basic nature.

Curtis Miller

I just think if aba decides to put erin in a relationship with anyone it needs to be someone who could make a go of it for real or they need to avoid an erin relationship entirely. I don't think anyone would enjoy another round of mating rituals. Unless it was much shorter than the last one

Curtis Miller

I hope courtship isn't niers. I don't see the appeal. Erin is a virgin with serious intimacy issues and highly situational social anxiety. A good relationship ship arc might do wonders for her but not with the four inch man. It would be a purely intellectual relationship. Kind of has to be. Just feels like a cop out towards Erin's squeamishness.

Christie

pls pls pls the courtship! >< It is now or ever. Niers is coming for sure

Tim

Could be Rabbiteater

Steve

isn't the innkeeper's knight toren?

longhairdfreak

I’d like to see Erin being Bi . Then getting with Onieva, which in turn also means Saliss as well, despite his underwhelming.. uh short sword. Or the Titan, I guess. Though if they think Saliss’ nudebox needs filling, Niers would probably be considered to have ... shortcomings.

ProSailor22

I think that the knight and friend chapter would happen during the course of the story anyway.

Helios6754

Honestly I’ll be really sad if we get the Knight chapter. We’ve already got so much goblin content. Missing out on the courtship or the friends would be a shame since both seem like we’ll learn a lot and see some really fun interactions. The knight chapter just seems like more of the usual

Courtship sounds like it would be the one that lets me hear the most absurd rumours, so that's my vote.

DenverDrew

What do we get if there is a tie? Courtship of the [Innkeeper] being blocked by a Knight?

Jim

I'm thoroughly excited to read more about The [Innkeeper]'s Knight. The Courtship of the Innkeeper would likely be a funny gag sidestory, but I can't see courting Erin working out for anybody! I hope it focuses on rumors, misinformation, gossip, and the like. The Innkeeper's World of Friends piques my interest - I haven't got a clue what it would be about but I've got the impression it would involve a lot of the good, slice of life [innkeeping] stuff that TWI has been great about.

Turnip

So I don't think think courtship is a romantic plot, rather Erin suddenly being seen as an eligible bachelorette. A nice follow up on all her recent flexing. I'm thinking a full chapter of the rumor stuff.

The Courtship of the [Innkeeper] please. I ship Erin and Saliss personally.

Lowe K. Lyesmith

Some romantic activity on Erin's side would be welcome. It's Erin, so it won't be distasteful or off-putting, or smutty. Her having a romantic relationship would add to her character and possible hilarity. My favorite would of course be a romantic relationship with our most beloved [Princess]

Tom sawicki

let’s hope the knight is a gobbie friend!

AKi1red

Erin and the titan please

Valerie Boudreau

Erin and the Earl please. Minus the awkwardness please.

Tyler Daniels

I want them all.......

I'd like to remind folks that romance does NOT necessarily equal physical intimacy. Spending time together, flirting, *dating* is romance. And even if there are physical impossibilities with sex, we humans in this world have been creating work-arounds for millennia. (900 numbers, for instance. Only more meaningful, since the voice in your ear is someone you KNOW loves you.) A relationship is what the people who are in it SAYS it is.

let your horni win and vote 2

As Freddie Mercury once said: I want it all and I want it now.

Lets have some romance for Erin! Though I’d vote for friends if it had any chance of success. For sure more interesting than Rabbiteater since we’re already set up to have a LOT of goblins moving forwards with Numbtounge going to Goblinhome and pebbles perspective on E chapters.

dr pepper

Courtship is at the bottom of my list because while Pirateaba is good at everything, well, sex and relationships tend to get awkward and even cringy.

20k words of Gary seducing Peslas, please.

I have to say no to the courtship because knowing Erin it’s just going to be more her dealing with how awkward she feels about people trying to be with her... I don’t want to put her through that! If, of course, the [Innkeeper] in question is even Erin

did you just make this up to influence the voting or? It’s a good LARP if so.

ProSailor22

Maybe if we tied 2 we could get both?

21515219

I remember Palt was interested in Erin, right? Is that what the courtship story would be? I kind of feel like my life would still be complete if I missed that :/ Someone said Rabbiteater might be the knight for that story, though, and I really want to know how that's going. Then, the world of friends... anything that even remotely might bring the Titan of Baleros closer to Erin is an auto-pick for me :D

Lucre

USA! We're #1! (We'd know, we stuffed the ballot box)

Dang it!!! World of friends!!! I need our innkeeper doing high levels of shenanigans

Amaranthy

Oh courtship definitely especially with the lead up from a previous chapter that Erin is a s-fiend. I can see pure hilarity.

Jonathan

I voted for the one currently trailing. As we all know, it's Erin's connections that really run the story. Seeing her world of friends is the option for me.

Undershaft

Knight, Rabbiteater's story is just getting to the good part!

What the hell i love all of these man ;-;

Syndarix

I voted for all of them..... sorry.... not sorry..... can I vote for mega chapter? Not that all the chapters we already get arnt mega chapters.

ProSailor22

Rabbiteater

Kyle merwin

On one hand I would not be surprised if courtship involves a different Inn and a different owner that is not Erin. Sad, but not unlikely... Yet I want it to be an Erin story just to see the suitors lining up and see who has the best (and will probably fail) shot at making us root for them!

Courtship sounds like it could be hilarious to read, but I also really wanna know who the knight could be. Really tough choice

Kyle merwin

Courtship or knight. Knight sounds like an easy one that will be enjoyable, but courtship?

Marsh Douglas

I want them all..

Cristi Nita

Silverant? I wanna know more about him Then again i find Pirate's Sex chapters hilarious ! Decisions, decisions...

Desurtfawks

Ah, yes. I can vote multiple times. I love how American this is.

Compendium

That's an Alt f4 of a chapter

random bypasser

knight...l can only think of bunkr now l'm sad. Unless pirateaba means goblin slayer

ProSailor22

Honestly it seems like alot of this stuff should wind up happening in the course of the story anyway but we get to choose a backstage look at one of them through this choice.

Eugenio Cazzo

Define soon cause it’s 3.30 am where i live and i wanna know if i should wait much longer

Jake6665

The [Innkeeper]'s Knight - For clarification, all of these might have some overlap, but each one's a very distinct type of story. For instance, I bet you can imagine who this might be. ...Rabbiteater. It's Rabbiteater. But how does he connect to Erin? That's the question. We will see both Erin. And Rabbiteater. And both managing to communicate due to this funny, or perhaps not funny even which...well, if it wins I'll tell you the rest. The Courtship of the [Innkeeper] - There are more than you think! Less than you'd expect in this chapter. Will they be successful? How might they try? It is about romance here. Not mating rituals specifically...but I am curious to know if it wins especially because some readers have told me they don't want romance in their story that has all things. Well...you get what you pay for. And it will actually be people having fun, newer characters mixing with old ones...but again, you get mostly what you vote for. Contains at least one fun bar/restaurant scene, non-redeemable after this poll chapter. The [Innkeeper]'s World of Friends - This one is the one with the mysterious title. What it means, really is... Interesting meetings. The kind you might assume would appear. Say, this [King] decides to message a certain eye-poker. Or this undead fellow decides to clarify his order. And there's the [Innkeeper]. Who also has to chat with an [Emperor]--wow, there's a lot of royalty, isn't there? Promise there won't just be the royalty. Mages...doctors...what mischief would an [Innkeeper] get up to? A Gnoll with a quill?
