Aww...
In that case,

[X] Take the offer
[X] Red Ribbon

We can make a team out of people that we give gems to, and call them the Red Ribbon Army.

Changing to:
[X] Take the online offer for one thousand dollars, arrange a meeting face-to-face, but do so masked-up. A definite yes/no is off the table until you know what and who you're dealing with and whether or not crime or crime of what type is involved. Besides, money leads to tinkering supplies. If these people are not wholly repugnant, then you'll probably be able to put up with them as long as they're shelling out the cash.
[X] Ribbon Star.

Hopefully we won't end up with a stupid name.

I just realized: we could recruit tattletale away from coil. one of our gems can disguise her so coil can't find her. she can be mission control for our heroing.

I wonder what happens if a Case 53 uses a gem. Will they appear to be a normal human? If so, we could have a pretty good market for civilian-grade gems, which would presumably be easier to make and longer lasting.

If we end up meeting her, there is a fairly good chance that our Thinker power will let us realize that she is not in her current position voluntarily, depending on exactly how it works.

Also, Silversun17 and Anasurimbor have an interesting idea, but that'll have to wait until we actually meet her, however that occurs.

You evil people.

Seriously though, that would make her to be less trusted to be serious, or worse, considered deviant.

She knows why the librarian was so mad.
The less said about where you had to look for techniques used to securely bind a person with ropes, the better. That librarian is still giving you "the look" every time you visit.

[X] Cape Name - Ribbon Star

Anything other then naming ourselves after that. Naming a technique that would be better though.

Are you people for real ? Fuck that, there is such a thing as Common Sense and I'd like our character to actually have some. Useless the QM can confirm that this Quest doesn't run on the usual Worm grade Grimness, then sure, knock yourself out. But until confirmed, trying to force utter stupidity like this into the story can only result in problems.

*Shrugs* Didn't vote for it. Just pointing out that this quest doesn't run on grimdark, which was what you seemed concerned about.

Well, yeah. Worm is dark enough that even lightening it only leave you with a still pretty deep shade of gray.
 
Calling yourself that would probably have people looking at you strangely, and have trouble taking you seriously, at least unless you proved yourself to be sufficiently badass to call yourself whatever you damn well want. The PRT and mainstream news outlets would probably call you by a more innocuous name, like they do with Bitch.

If this option wins (I haven't tallied yet), I'll roll with it as best I can. This is my first time anyway, so it's been a learning experience. And it's not like you guys haven't managed to pick the options I thought least likely thus far.
 
[1] be an independent hero and start your own Web show. your transformed state is damn easy on the eyes and the cape webshow you know of is profitable. starting up a hero counterpart to the Uber and leet should pay off.

... Well, our name is now Shibari. If we're going to go with that, I vote we be stupidly proud of it and be completely obtuse when people imply there's something wrong with it. "What? It's just the Japanese art of tying people up. Why is everybody snickering?" Be especially incensed when people get our name wrong on the news, and obsessively correct our para humans wiki listing.

On another note, I think this is the first quest where we actually pursued the Faultline route. That's just nifty.

Shoot. Tallying votes manually is hard :(

If anyone wants to change their votes go for it. I'm not going to get the next part done today, because I have to reread some things first anyway.
