Operation Pervert Bird

"Rance, moments before created the plan."

- There's NO WAY I'm letting fuckin' Bird have her!

About
Operation Pervert Bird was a strategy devised by the warrior Rance while investigating the Monster-infested tunnel that had mysteriously appeared underneath the Happiness Pharmaceutical building during the events of Rance 4.1 in order to destroy the budding romance between the Adventurer Kisara Copri and his nemesis Bird Lithfie.

An extremely cruel plan that utilized both rape-by-deception and sexual violence for the sake of breaking up a couple, Operation Pervert Bird clearly demonstrates both Rance's devious mind and talent for formulating unconventional strategies when under pressure. In addition, it also showcases Rance's intense dislike of Bird, as he was more immediately motivated by his urge to prevent Bird from having sex with a girl rather than his interest in having sex with Kisara while he was creating it.

Background
The scheme was created shortly after Kisara and Bird became trapped in a pitfall planted by Arnie Rolento, an undercover member of the Angel Army, the Gal Monster rights extremist group responsible for creating the tunnel, who had been posing as another adventurer hired to explore it. Trapped at the bottom of a pit with no visible means of escape, the two appeared to be in mortal peril. Bird took advantage of the intensity of the situation in order to make overt romantic advances on Kisara, professing his love to her and claiming that he did not want to die with regrets. Kisara, who had been rendered more emotionally-vulnerable by their circumstances, quickly reciprocated his gesture and the two began kissing passionately.

At around this time, the pair was found by Rance and his pet Athena 2.0, who they had been traveling with earlier but had gotten separated from following Arnie's trap. Enraged at the sight of the two of them together, Rance immediately began to think of a way to break up the couple. Realizing that directly interfering would simply delay the intimacy of their relationship, Rance instead decided to instead take advantage of the situation to both take Kisara's virginity and discredit Bird by impersonating him and having violent sex with her, leading to her hating him.

Strategy Overview
Operation Pervert Bird consisted of several distinct parts:
 * 1) Athena will silently knock Bird unconscious by non-lethally sniping him with an arrow.
 * 2) Kisara's inexperience with romance will cause her to keep her eyes  closed for long enough for Rance to enter the pit and take Bird's place.
 * 3) Using Athena's ability to perfectly mimic any other person's voice, Rance will instruct Athena to tell Kisara in Bird's voice to put on a blindfold.
 * 4) With his identity now perfectly concealed, Rance will use his most brutal erotic maneuvers on Kisara, all under the guise of being Bird.
 * 5) After Kisara has been sufficiently bullied, Rance and Athena will silently exit the scene, leaving Bird as the obvious culprit.
 * 6) Out of disgust, Kisara will break up with Bird and come running to Rance for comfort.

Outcome
Operation Pervert Bird proved to be a resounding success, with Kisara losing any and all trust and affection that she had placed in Bird afterwards, resulting in her immediately cutting off all ties with him. In addition, this also led to Kisara reevaluating her opinion of Rance, who she had previously viewed as a bad person due to Bird's dislike of him. Kisara at never point realized the true circumstances of the experience and continues to maintain a high opinion of Rance to this day.

In contrast to Kisara's reaction, Bird was left completely completely oblivious to what had occurred while he was unconscious to make Kisara suddenly hate him, and quickly abandoned any further attempts at investigating the tunnel beneath the pharmaceutical building. While Bird still has no concrete idea of exactly what happened, he eventually came to assume that Rance had something to do with it, causing him to resent the other man even further. Following this event, Bird dropped any remaining level of civility he had previously attempted to maintain around Rance, responding to his presence exclusively with understated hostility and intense paranoia for the remainder of their encounters.

Trivia

 * This is the only instance in the Rance Series where Rance himself is directly responsible for Bird's female companion losing interest in him, with all other instances being the result of Bird's own personality or other outside factors.
