Boss, if they make us find seven lost crystals, I'm quitting.

He turned to look at her and then he gently shut the door, he gives a LITTLE BIT of a gently caress. Knightmare Knit is just a big softy. :3:

I think he's playing the strong silent guy so that Parfait will fall in love with him and then he'll actually turn out to be pure evil and use her as a vessel for his shadow queen (similar to Paper Mario: TTYD) because it's obvious Cordelia is nothing to him.

Tomato is obviously in love with Parfait, so I think this will be more of a tragic romance for Nightmare Knight. Though NK seems too professional to even attempt a relationship with a henchman.

Yeah, I figured this was the whole point of the necklace.

There've been tons of cycles, so maybe young Nightmare Knit did have some kind of relationship with a princess or two before it ended horribly because he's the villain and now he's just left with bitter memories.

The necklace is going to be an accessory that should be good since it will be a plot item, but will actually be way less useful than most of the good end-game items.

You, McNulty, are a gaping asshole. We both know this.
So if we now have a sorceress(?), a wizard and two(?) fighters, what do we need to round out this adventuring party?

Well, one of the comic's big inspirations is Paper Mario, so clearly the character list will be massive, but Cucumber will just have to pause the adventure to choose who his companion is at any given time.

I dunno, I've always gotten the vibe that it was going to just be Cucumber, Almond, Carrot and Nautilus, but it's way too soon to pick up on any patterns.

Nautilus is my fav, though, so I'm glad she's sticking around for sure.

She only has one minion she can summon, though, so maybe it's more like a familiar/animal companion/whatever? I'm gonna go with Nautilus is a druid.

So:

Cucumber: Wizard
Almond: Fighter
Carrot: Paladin
Nautilus: Druid

If Cucumber Quest is similar to an RPG, wouldn't it make sense for Nautilus to learn more summons as she adventures?

Also, I get the feeling Cosmo's going to join the party eventually. Kinda like Cid in FFIV, I'm imagining.

Nightmare Knight kidnaps/freezes Cordelia in some manner after another argument, and Peridot has to prove she's a bad enough dude to save the Queen.

Almond is Player 2.
