[22:38] <SilentBrony_GM>  Star Group is beginning now.
[22:38] <SilentBrony_GM>  Setting being described.
[22:38] <SilentBrony_GM>  Initiate.
[22:40] <SilentBrony_GM>  Beyond the borders of the main Equestrian wasteland, lies a hardened land of turmoil and strife. It has been five years since "The Light Bringer" re-opened the skies and let the sun shine in over two centuries. However there are still many clouds that hang over the Mareizona Wasteland.
[22:43] <SilentBrony_GM>  In this land, there are words on the winds about a tremendous conflict coming to pass. Three major factions vie for control of this stretch of land and it's rumored treasures, long forgottten and protected by various hazards and dangers. Motivated by this and other desires, a group of six strange individuals trek into the Mareizona, leaving behind a mark that historians still dispute that was either beneficial or detrimental.
[22:44] <SilentBrony_GM>  What they do agree on however, is that for good or ill, they definately changed the course of the Mareizona... and it all begins in a strange tavern in a small backwater village called Grimpass.
[22:45] <SilentBrony_GM>  Inside the derelict and burnt out remains of a tavern, are only 7 occupants, one being the bartender behind the counter. Scattered tables and chairs fill the otherwise empty room, a door leading to the back behind the barcounter.
[22:46] <SilentBrony_GM>  ((Session begins now, All players save for Smooth-Jazz introduce yourselves. Good luck, may Celestia and Luna watch over you.))
[22:46] 	Roy_Calbeck looks around at the others.

[22:48] 	+Sour_Grapes a purple filly with a green mane licks her lips and looks at the smucks around the bar. Who to scam first>"

[22:49] 	Strobe sets mode: +v Ammy
[22:49] 	+Dust_Off sits a table.  The green dappled pegasus mare preens her wings.
[22:50] 	+Ammy sits at the corner table cleaning her glasses
[22:50] 	+Roy_Calbeck is at the bar, a white unicorn with blond mane nursing the last of his caps in bottle form.
[22:52] 	+Ammy is a young Zebra mare she has light grey stripes and a shoulderlength cream white mane which she dyed neon green
[22:52] 	+Sour_Grapes steps forward from the door to the bartended, her eyes looking wild, "Sir, Sir! You need to help me, I think i'm being followed!"
[22:53] 	+Roy_Calbeck gives Sour a sidelong look.
[22:53] 	+Dust_Off looks up from her wings at the strange filly in the strange tavern.
[22:54] 	+Green gasps in surprise. "What?" The red coated mare with blue and green hair is dumbstruck and stares out the door for the supposed follower.
[22:54] 	Xavi ([email protected]) has left #FalloutEquestriaPNP
[22:55] 	swicked ([email protected]) Quit (Quit: INCENDIARE EXPLOSIUM!!!)
[22:55] 	Strobe sets mode: +v SilentBrony_GM
[22:56] <+SilentBrony_GM>  The old stallion barpony just gives the deep lavender filly an irritated look saying, "Not my problem kid, buy a drink or git out." He continues to clean a glass with a dirty molded rag, then spits on the floor.
[22:56] 	+Roy_Calbeck reminds himself that he is glad he opted for the bottle and not the glas.
[22:56] <+Roy_Calbeck>  *glass
[22:57] 	+Sour_Grapes smirks at the bartender, "But he was saying something of burning down the bar!"
[22:57] 	+Roy_Calbeck arches an eyebrow.
[22:58] 	+Green gasps again. "That's here."
[22:59] <+SilentBrony_GM>  The old barpony then clears his throat and rights himself tall, saying in a voice with complete lack of emotion with half-lidded eyes, "Now introducing the cool cat from parts unknown and his awesome musical stylings, here is... Smooth-Jazz." Then he slouches once more.
[22:59] 	+Dust_Off 's jaw drops open.  The medic pony shivers at the cleanliness of this 'establishment.'  She stops preening.
[22:59] 	+Roy_Calbeck sighs.  "Can't ever have a damn drink in peace..."
[23:00] 	+Sour_Grapes sighs as she's ignored and shakes off her wings some looking at the music pony. "Great. Just what I needed."
[23:00] 	+Roy_Calbeck gets up off his barstool, checks the action on his hunting rifle, adjusts his security barding, and heads towards the door.
[23:00] 	+Green focuses intently on Sour_Grapes. "Is he armed? Does he have friends with explosives?"
[23:01] 	+Sour_Grapes turnes to Green making her face look distrested again, "Yes! He said if I don't give him uh... fifty caps he's going to burn down the bar and kill us all! But I have nothing"
[23:02] 	+Dust_Off stays quiet, watching the blonde unicorn get up and head towards the door. He'd see if there was trouble.  Dusty bent her head to the side checked that her pistol wasn't tied down.
[23:02] 	+Green frowns at Sour_Grapes's relevation. "Oh, so you just owe him some money."
[23:03] 	+Roy_Calbeck sticks his head out the door, looking up and down the street for a psychopony with a molotov.
[23:03] 	+Sour_Grapes shakes her little head, "I don't owe no pony nothing, can you help please. I'm afraid." She starts to tear up
[23:04] <+SilentBrony_GM>  Roy_Calbeck sees nothing but the steps leading down unto the brown, dust-filled road, a trail stretches to the left and west as far as the eye can see. He only sees another old black earth pony Stallion in a cowpony hat approaching the door to the bar.
[23:05] 	+Green comforts Sour_Grapes with a hug. "There, there."
[23:05] 	+Sour_Grapes makes an annoyed face when Green's not looking. "Bu-but I need the caps or else!"
[23:06] 	+Dust_Off watches the filly and the buck's interchange from the sidelines.
[23:07] 	+Smooth-Jazz a black unicorn with a blue mane walks out, saxophone levitated infront of him, dressed in a nice suit he looks like a suave bastard. He begins to play.
[23:07] 	+Green looks back at the door and then at Sour_Grapes again. "I'm sure he wouldn't burn down a bar for 50 caps. That seems awfully mean of him."
[23:08] 	+Ammy looks up from her cleaning "Why does he want to burn this bar down anyway?"
[23:08] 	+Roy_Calbeck gives the pony a hard look, trying to discern his intent.
[23:08] 	+Sour_Grapes resists the urge to flail in annoyance. "Nevermind. When I die i'm so haunting you."
[23:09] 	+Green pats Sour_Grapes at the head. "Don't worry, I'll protect you from your stalker!" She proclaims in a heroic pose.
[23:09] 	+Dust_Off snickers at the little pegasus before turning her head to the zebra.  "He wants fifty caps.  A good reason for arson, I suppose, unless you burn up all the caps in side."
[23:10] 	+Sour_Grapes head tables. Of course she finds the most gulible idiot in the world.
[23:13] 	+Ammy stays quiet listening to the suspisious situation folding out ahead of her
[23:13] <+SilentBrony_GM>  Smooth-Jazz begins to play an incredible number from his saxophone, filling the tavern with soul-soothing bluesy rhythm, the Stallion from outside trots up to Roy_Calbeck with a smile and says, "Pardon" before entering into the tavern, greeted by the beautiful music as well.
[23:14] 	+Roy_Calbeck is satisfied that if the stallion was going to burn the place down, he wouldn't be entering it.  He returns to the bar and what's left of his bottle of beer.
[23:15] <+SilentBrony_GM>  The black earth pony stallion sits at an unoccupied table in a chair, and listens to the song until it ends and eyes each of the occupants, before saying in a smoky old voice, "Well now... this place is fairly lively for once! A pleasure to see all you fine individuals today."
[23:16] 	+Roy_Calbeck looks back around at the stallion.  "Likewise, mister."
[23:16] 	+Dust_Off watches the blonde buck walk back in.  She settles in, enjoying the music, and casts knowing look at the pegasus filly.  She turns to the old stallion, smiles, and nods her head to him.
[23:16] 	+Sour_Grapes gives up trying to scam as clearly all these ponies are way too stupid. She looks at the black stallion and shrugs, "You talk funny."
[23:17] 	+Ammy stays at the back not wanting to talk to anypony
[23:19] <+SilentBrony_GM>  The new stallion in his aged cowpony hat gives them a smile as he leans back and takes out a whiskey bottle from his bags, giving it a swig and speaking to the nearby group, "Say... y'all ain't frum 'round here now are ya?"
[23:20] 	+Dust_Off shakes her head.  "No, sir.  I'm not."
[23:20] <+Roy_Calbeck>  Not really, no.
[23:20] 	+Sour_Grapes is not aware she's in a group. "No."
[23:20] 	Silverlight ([email protected]) Quit (Quit: shutting down for the night.)
[23:21] 	+Green smiles at the black stallions request. "I'm from tenpony."
[23:22] <+SilentBrony_GM>  The stallion rubs a hoof on his chin, before taking another swig and setting the whiskey on the table, he then says, "Y'know quite a few ponies 'round here would be miiighty interested in yer kind of business, if yer were all lookin to make yer mark or start up sum trouble." he finishes his statement with a slight grin.
[23:23] 	+Sour_Grapes tilts her head, "Right. That's not suspicious or nothin'"
[23:23] <+Green> "Uhu. What kind of marks?"
[23:24] 	+Roy_Calbeck holds his peace for the moment.
[23:25] 	+Dust_Off raises an eyebrow.  Who did this old pony thing she was?  Did he know who she was?
[23:25] <+SilentBrony_GM>  The stallion gives a chuckle before responding, "Now, dun ye be frettin none, I ain't got no jobs to offer ya. I ken only point d'way."
[23:25] <+Roy_Calbeck> "Mm-hm."
[23:26] 	+Sour_Grapes blinks, "What kind of job, I need to make 50 caps inna hurry..."
[23:27] 	+Dust_Off folds her hooves on her table and looks at the old stallion.  "And what is your interest in this, sir?"
[23:28] 	Xavi ([email protected]) has joined #FalloutEquestriaPNP
[23:29] <+SilentBrony_GM>  the stallion shrugs his shoulders and says to Sour_Grapes, "Like I told ya, I ain't got the details, just know the proper ponies who might." He turns to Dust_Off with a grin saying, "Well pretty little filly, they call me Advice Column. On ah account dat givin help to strangers is mah specialty."
[23:30] 	+Roy_Calbeck arches that eyebrow again.
[23:30] 	+Sour_Grapes nods, "Proper ponies, like you be speakin' of? I need work..."
[23:30] 	+Ammy "I need at least 100 caps for a toll on a road I need to go along, I'll do it" still remaing seated in the corner
[23:30] 	+Roy_Calbeck looks at what's left of his beer, polishes it off, and gives a satisfied belch.
[23:31] 	+Sour_Grapes silently approves of Roy's belching prowess
[23:31] <+Roy_Calbeck> "Might's well.  That was the last of my caps anyway."
[23:31] <+Green> "I'm a proper pony. What ways are you talking about mister Advice Column?"
[23:31] <+SilentBrony_GM>  Advice Column gives Dust_Off, then Sour_Grapes an eye and whistles slightly in a bemused manner stating, "Whew first bit o advice to ye pegasi... ya be needin to be keepin a low profile, if ya know wut I mean. Certain groups be /real/ interested in ya,"
[23:32] 	+Dust_Off narrows her eyes.  "Who?  Enclave?"
[23:32] 	+Sour_Grapes looks at her wings and flaps them out, "I guess, ain't like I can just cut'em off or nothin'
[23:32] 	+Roy_Calbeck gives Sour a look.  "Never heard of a serape?"
[23:33] 	+Sour_Grapes stares blankly at Roy_Calbeck, "Can't even say sea-ape
[23:33] 	+Roy_Calbeck eyerolls.
[23:33] <+SilentBrony_GM>  Advice Column nods his head and says, "Yyyeup. Cept dey b'callin themselves M.A.C. out her'. Real strange bunch. Kept real quiet years back, till the skies opened. Once it did, they came out a-buzzin angrier den a nest of Cazadore sprites."
[23:34] <+Roy_Calbeck> "
[23:34] 	+Dust_Off rolls her eyes.  "Great...I thought I'd be away from them out this far.  What does M.A.C. stand for?"
[23:34] <+Roy_Calbeck> "I take it they're not the hirin' bunch.
[23:35] <+Green> "So who fights the good fight? How far is it?"
[23:35] 	+Sour_Grapes looks around, "Enclave? Wait, them the jerk ones what closed the sky, eh?"
[23:35] 	+Dust_Off casts a glance at Roy.  "No way in hell, I'm working for them."
[23:35] 	+Roy_Calbeck snorts at Green's comment.
[23:36] <+SilentBrony_GM>  Advice answers to Dust_Off, "M.A.C. stands fer 'Mareizona Airborne Corps' frum wut I her' dey run a reaal tight ship." When he hears Roy's question he rubs his chin again and looks up in his head in thought.-
[23:37] <+SilentBrony_GM>  he answers Roy's question, "Y'know... At first ah heard dey were, 'conscripting their long lost way-ward fellow pegasi', s'long yer not a Dashite. Heard now dey take bounties and such on huntin down Pegasi 'round here."
[23:38] 	+Sour_Grapes facehoofs, "I can't even fly, an' now these wing's got bounties on mah head. Whatevers. So this job..."
[23:38] 	+Roy_Calbeck glances at Sour and Dust for a moment before turning his attention back to the black stallion.  "Anything else out there?"
[23:39] 	+Dust_Off looks down at the older filly.  "You can't fly?"
[23:39] 	+Sour_Grapes flaps her wings some to demonstrate her lack of ability
[23:39] 	+Ammy gets up and walks over to the group
[23:40] <+Green> "Don't worry little filly," Green tells Sour_Grapes. "I'm sure if you practiced enough you could fly."
[23:40] 	Xavi ([email protected]) has left #FalloutEquestriaPNP
[23:40] <+SilentBrony_GM>  Advice nods his head and says to Roy, "Oh ya, be real careful of the 'New Pony Legion', reeal strange bunch of savage ponies. Something about reinigniting the fires of the lost Pony tribes or something. They mainly stick to the lands they control, but be quieter then a nightstalker if ye plan on goin there. They get real angry real quick."
[23:41] <+Roy_Calbeck> "I meant in terms of jobs, but thanks fer th' info.
[23:41] 	+Dust_Off frowns.  Best a conversation to have later, she thought....she looked over at the unicorn mare.  Ah, an unicorn flight expert...great.
[23:42] 	+Sour_Grapes smirks at Green, "Mah mommy tried to teach me by throwing me off a barn once...." She turns back to the plot device guy, "Are there any ponies who aren't crazy and murder-y...?".
[23:43] <+Green> "Yea. Where are the ponies fighting the good fight?"
[23:43] <+SilentBrony_GM>  Advice shrugs and says, "Mighty sorry then bout dat, ye sure ya dun wanna hear about the last group? Ah guess not, well if ye be wantin jobs, talk to Sour Puss at de old school house, she been mentionin sumthin 'bout floods and such. Also somethin 'bout angry ants."
[23:44] <+SilentBrony_GM>  Advice looks to Sour_Grapes and chuckles, saying, "Filly, I'm probably the tamest creature here in the Mareizona."
[23:44] <+Roy_Calbeck> "Love to get all th' info I can, sure... thanks."
[23:44] 	+Dust_Off looks at the others.  "I wouldn't mind hearing about the last group.  I like knowing the lay of the land."
[23:44] 	+Sour_Grapes nods, "I can squash some bugs..."
[23:45] <+Green> "What way to the old school house?"
[23:46] <+SilentBrony_GM>  Advice tells Green, "Right out the door, make ah right and follow da road. Y'all see ah big wooden structure wid ah broken fence. Cain't miss it." He turns back to Dust_Off and says, "The last group is the Mareizona Chapter of the Steel Rangers.. ah real odd bunch.. ev'n fer bein Rangers."
[23:47] 	+Dust_Off gets up getting ready to follow the group for quick caps.  "Strange for rangers?  They're all strange.  How bad can they be?"
[23:47] 	+Sour_Grapes smirks, "Steel rangers. They're fun." And gullible. Oh the memories. "Thanks, er, whoever ay are, i forget." And trots out the door
[23:47] 	+Green follows Sour_Grapes. "Boy, that was a lot of talking just fer directions."
[23:49] 	+Sour_Grapes nods at green, "Most ponies dun, talk, but sometimes you find ones that sprout off silly information for hours>"
[23:50] <+SilentBrony_GM>  Advice tells Dust_Off, "Not entirely sure, but I heard dat sumthin happened to their Elder, makin 'im nuttier den a feral ghoul, if ya ask me, they're pretty decent, actually helpin wastelanders."
[23:52] <+Roy_Calbeck> "Hmph.  Well, best be movin' along.  Thanks fer th' job lead."
[23:52] <+Green> "They should have signs over their heads. It's hard to find ponies that talk alot."
[23:52] <+SilentBrony_GM>  The barpony yells out, "Damn it Advice, yer damn yammerin is drivin mah business away! Buy sumthin or git out!" He turns to Smooth-Jazz and says, "Wut are ya still doin here? I only hired ya for one song! Git!"
[23:52] 	+Roy_Calbeck heads out the door after Sour, who he's sure will mung up the job somehow.
[23:52] <+Dust_Off> "Oh. That is unexpected."  She smiled at the buck.  "Thank you very much, sir."  She turned and followed after the rest of the group.  Such a strange profession to have, giving advice, had to be a scam.
[23:53] 	+Sour_Grapes nods, "I agree. Like an arrow saying 'expo...spost... talking guy here'"
[23:53] 	+Smooth-Jazz stops playing and looks over his glasses. "Chill, daddy-o."
[23:54] 	+Roy_Calbeck catches up to Sour and Green at a trot.  "A serape's a tough blanket with a hole in it fer yer head.  One'd cover up those wings fairly well."
[23:54] <+Green> "Don't you worry bout stalker. I've got my shovel. My names Green, but you can call me Red too if you want."
[23:54] 	+Ammy stretches out and begins to walk to the door
[23:54] 	+Sour_Grapes sticks out her tongue, "Don't wanna wear no sea-ape... oh. I'm Sour Grapes."
[23:55] 	+Smooth-Jazz smiles and puts his sax in its case before sitting down at a table.
[23:55] <+Roy_Calbeck> "Roy."
[23:55] 	+Dust_Off trots up to catch up with the group.  "Hello, mind if I tag along?  My name's Dust Off."
[23:55] <+Green> "Besides, how can you practice if you go cover them up?"
[23:55] <+Roy_Calbeck> "An' if ya don't cover those things up somehow, from th' sound of it, yer gonna get shot before ya can use 'em."
[23:56] 	+Roy_Calbeck nods to Dust.
[23:56] 	+Smooth-Jazz leans back on his chair and spies the group. "If you cool cats don't mind me askin, where you heading off to?"
[23:57] <+Green> "an old school thing. Something about ants."
[23:57] <+Dust_Off> "As much I don't like my wings covered.  Some covering might be advisable."  Dust looked back at the musician pony.  "It's a job."  She shrugged.
[23:57] 	+Sour_Grapes nods, "Sure Dusty. An we're off to fight ants I think?"
[23:58] <+SilentBrony_GM>  ((Smooth, everyone save for you are outside))
[23:59] <+Smooth-Jazz> (Then I shall be retracting my last statement)
[23:59] 	+Ammy stops and leans beside the door wondering which job she should take
Session Close: Fri Mar 23 00:00:00 2012
Session Start: Fri Mar 23 00:00:00 2012
Session Ident: #FalloutEquestriaPNP
[00:00] <+Roy_Calbeck> "Hope it pays decent.  No job that costs more in ammo than ya get paid's worth it."
[00:01] 	+Smooth-Jazz gathers his saxophone case and saddlebags, along with his SMG and holster before stepping outside. He surveys the area and lights a cigarette. "Same ol' shit, different day..."
[00:02] 	+Ammy looks at Smooth-Jazz as he steps out "Interesting, I thought you actually speaked that way"
[00:05] 	Karina ([email protected]) Quit (Quit: )
[00:06] <+SilentBrony_GM>  As the group heads out and begin to head down towards the school house, they are surrounded by vast stretches of rocky and dusty wastes. Besides the Tavern and road, there is only one other structure standing, a small house, with it's roof collapsed, all other structrures decayed and collapsed long ago.
[00:06] 	+Roy_Calbeck looks at the house in passing, out of habit.
[00:06] <+SilentBrony_GM>  Amongst the group, Green and Sour_Grapes can hear a strange buzzing sound approaching their location, getting louder and louder with each passing second.
[00:07] 	+Sour_Grapes smiles, "Nice town... a bit nosiy. Something keeps being all buzz-y"
[00:07] <+Green> "Is my radio on? No."
[00:07] 	+Green checks EFS and looks behind herself
[00:07] 	+Roy_Calbeck frowns.  "Buzzy?"
[00:07] 	+Dust_Off walks along oblivious.
[00:08] 	+Sour_Grapes nods, "Buzz-y. Ya know, 'bzzzzzzzzzzzzzz'"
[00:08] 	+Smooth-Jazz turns to Ammy. "Pardon me, doll, but I didn't quite catch that."
[00:08] 	+Roy_Calbeck looks around.  "Where?"
[00:08] <+SilentBrony_GM>  The buzzing sound is intensifying, adding strange unfamiliar mechanical sounds, as now Smooth-Jazz, stepping outside can begin to hear the faint buzzing. Sour_Grapes and Green notice, it's coming from the North.
[00:09] 	+Sour_Grapes waves in a northy direction, "I'm going to go check it out!' She says running ahead
[00:09] 	+Ammy "I said you I thought you actually talked like that, but It appears I have made a mistake"
[00:09] <+Green> "I don't like this. Maybe we should hide in the house?"
[00:09] 	+Smooth-Jazz shrugs and rubs his ear. "Think my ears are actin up."
[00:10] 	+Roy_Calbeck sighs and facehoofs.
[00:10] 	+Dust_Off sees the filly run forward, and trots after her.  "Hey, wait, kid!"
[00:10] <+SilentBrony_GM>  As Sour_Grapes looks north, she can see two strange glinting objects, that look somewhat like moving clouds with spinning blades coming towards their direction.
[00:11] 	+Roy_Calbeck re-checks the action on his rifle and follows... slowly.
[00:11] <+SilentBrony_GM>  Also to note they are flying in the air and coming towards the group at a high speed.
[00:11] 	+Sour_Grapes takes a step back from the bladed cloud things, "Hey. Guys... should clouds have swords?"
[00:11] 	+Green follows Sour_Grapes. "I'd rather not find a swarm of buzzing things. Can't we go the opposite way?"
[00:11] 	+Smooth-Jazz watches them all leave. He shrugs and checks his gear.
[00:11] <+Roy_Calbeck> "No, no they shouldn't... RUN!"
[00:11] 	+Roy_Calbeck bolts for the house.
[00:11] 	+Dust_Off skids to a stop.  "Kid, come on!  Back this way."
[00:12] 	+Ammy laughs "Yeah I only heard one, but listening to your music 24/7 would be hard on my ears too"
[00:13] 	+Sour_Grapes tilts her head at the blade cloud things and backs up slowly as they got closer, "uh. Right." She turns around to run back
[00:13] 	+Smooth-Jazz chuckles. "Well, I'd best be off." he tips his hat to Ammy. "Be seein you, dollface." he trots down the road to the school house.
[00:13] 	+Green points Sour_Grapes to the house. "We can fight clouds in there. If they come for us."
[00:14] <+SilentBrony_GM>  As half the members bolt to the standing structure, the rest of the party can hear the buzzing and turn to notice that the objects flying in the air are fairly large in size and look to be made of metal.
[00:14] <+SilentBrony_GM>  They are still heading to the group, approaching ever so quickly.
[00:14] 	+Ammy in zebra {What the fuck?
[00:14] 	+Sour_Grapes ducks inside the house and puts her back to a nearby wall
[00:14] 	+Dust_Off turns gallops towards the house.
[00:14] 	+Smooth-Jazz "What in Luna's tapdancing hooves is that?"
[00:15] 	+Smooth-Jazz "...aw hell..." he bolts to the nearest building.
[00:15] 	+Roy_Calbeck is, presumably, the first to the door, and gives a perfunctory check for tripwires and such before opening it.
[00:15] 	+Ammy steps nervously back inside the tavern
[00:17] 	+Green follows Roy, Dust_off and Sour_Grapes into the building.
[00:20] 	+Ammy turns around and looks at the Bartender "What the hell are those things?!"
[00:20] <+Green> "I'd hate to break it to you guys, but the roof is gone."
[00:21] <+SilentBrony_GM>  Roy finds nothing ill to prevent them from entering the structure, however he notes the roof's integrity is very old and unstable, before inspecting further, Sour_Grapes crashes into Roys backside in her haste, causing the pre-occupied Stallion to fall forward as they crash through the front door.
[00:21] <+Roy_Calbeck> OOF!
[00:22] 	+Smooth-Jazz dives back into the tavern
[00:22] 	+Sour_Grapes acks and tumbles through the door
[00:22] 	+Roy_Calbeck sprawls on the floor, then does his best to get his back up into a corner.  Most structurally sound part of a building...
[00:22] <+Green> (Never mind that last statement)
[00:24] <+SilentBrony_GM>  Dust_Off and Green manage to reach the building before the flying objects begin to fly overhead. Getting a good look as they pass by through one of the grimy, shattered windows, Dust_Off notes they are both Class C Vertibucks, designed for mass troop transport.
[00:25] 	+Dust_Off pulled back against the building.  "Oh, damn.  Vertibucks.  It's the Enclave."
[00:25] 	+Green looks for something to stuff the door with.
[00:25] 	+Smooth-Jazz gets up off the floor and puts his back to the wall beside the door, SMG ready. He spies Ammy. "Hey dollface, keep that pretty head of yours down, something out there wants to whack us, capiche?"
[00:25] 	+Roy_Calbeck hisses softly as the Vertibucks go overhead.  "That's a major unit right there... one, two, three... "  (does a count of blades going overhead)
[00:26] <+SilentBrony_GM>  Flying overhead, the party notices a gigantic emblem. It's the Equestrian letters, 'M.A.C. with multple sun rays ringing around the letters. As they pass overhead low, the roof begins to rattle and bits and pieces begin to fall, as centuries old dust falls on the four inhabitants heads.
[00:26] 	+Roy_Calbeck doublechecks his math.  "Two."
[00:26] 	+Ammy pullls out a long hunting rifle "Such a gentlemen"
[00:27] 	+Sour_Grapes neezes
[00:27] <+Sour_Grapes> *sneezes
[00:28] <+Dust_Off> "It's only two, Roy.  I saw them clearly.  Class C's, that means they're troop transports."
[00:28] 	+Roy_Calbeck shakes his head.  "Spooked by helo troops.  I'll never live this down."
[00:28] <+SilentBrony_GM>  Advice Column and the Barpony are completely silent for a moment, before Advice says in a quiet tone, "Damn... been a while since the M.A.C. made a personal appearance in this area... wonder what they could be doing..."
[00:28] 	+Green tries to find a place in the building where they can be safe from falling debris.
[00:29] 	+Dust_Off looked over at the unicorn.  "Why wouldn't you be spooked?  You want to face a full compliment of Enclave troopers with door gunner support?"
[00:29] <+Roy_Calbeck> We should prolly get outta here, if they're not attackin' at th' moment... or even if they are.
[00:29] 	+Sour_Grapes shakes some dirt off her hair, "Bleh. I just wanted to go stomp some ants"
[00:30] 	+Roy_Calbeck blinks at Dust, then shakes his head again.  "Nevermind.  Old history."
[00:30] 	+Smooth-Jazz peers out the door. "This ain't good..."
[00:32] 	Pantzar ([email protected]) has joined #FalloutEquestriaPNP
[00:32] <+SilentBrony_GM>  The massive flying metal objects fly around once more in a wide loop, causing the roof to rattle violently some more, with more dust falling, however it remains intact. The flying objects fly off into the distance, as the ominous buzzing of their blades fade and fade, until silence descends on the wastes once more.
[00:32] <+Roy_Calbeck> "Let's go.  This place's less 'cover' and more 'a tombstone waiting to happen'."
[00:33] <+Green> "Wait. Might be something in here."
[00:33] 	+Smooth-Jazz watches the vertibuck leave and smiles. "All clear, dollface." he smiles at Ammy. "See ya around." he trots out the door and back down the street.
[00:33] 	+Dust_Off steps out of the building quickly, glad to be out doors again.  "I'm with you, Roy."
[00:33] 	+Sour_Grapes leaves anyway and starts heading back to the school house.
[00:34] 	+Roy_Calbeck heads up towards the school house.  "Odds are there's nothin' left in there after two hundred years of scavvin' anyways..."
[00:35] 	+Green hurries after them. "Might be treasure hidden away, or maybe somepony died in there and nopony checked."
[00:35] <+Roy_Calbeck> "Maybe.  An' maybe th' roof finally gives in while yer checkin'."
[00:36] 	+Smooth-Jazz just happens to be heading down the road the school house is on
[00:36] <+SilentBrony_GM>  Ammy follows Smooth-Jazz.
[00:36] 	+Roy_Calbeck stops for a moment as Smooth and Ammy approach.  "You play a fine nice sax, mister."
[00:37] 	+Sour_Grapes trots up to Smooth-Jazz, "Headed for the school job, eh?"
[00:37] 	+Dust_Off keeps going to towards the school house.  She shivered, fluttering her wings.  Enclave that close?  Damn.
[00:37] 	+Smooth-Jazz raises a brow at the little filly. "School job?"
[00:37] 	+Sour_Grapes nods. "Something bout floods'an'ants an stuff"
[00:38] <+Roy_Calbeck> "Payin' work, supposedly."
[00:38] <+Dust_Off> Ammy keeps pace behind the group.  One can only assume being enigmatically zebra-like.
[00:39] 	+Smooth-Jazz chuckles. "Nah, sorry kiddo." he looks up at Roy, "So scavvin? That aint my scene, dig?"
[00:39] <+SilentBrony_GM>  As the conversating group trots down the road towards their target destination, they find more structures completely blown down flat from the megaspells or perhaps just ages of disrepair, and notice as the road begins to veer off to the right, there is a large Schoolhouse, about two stories high, made of wood.
[00:39] 	+Sour_Grapes trots off towards the Schoolhouse
[00:40] 	+Green trots after. "Whats the rush?"
[00:41] 	+Dust_Off and Ammy walked to the school house.  The pegasus looks over at the musician.  "Why is scavenging, not your scene?  It's good caps."
[00:41] <+SilentBrony_GM>  The Schoolhouse, decrepit but still standing, has a large brutish mare in a jacketed duster with an aged varmint rifle, standing infront of the main entrance doors. The large mare, eyes the approaching group waringly, before turning her head slightly and spitting.
[00:42] 	+Smooth-Jazz absent mindedly follows up the school house. "So's music. Music is my scene, babe."
[00:42] 	+Sour_Grapes runs up to her< "You've got to help me! These ponies are stalking me!?!
[00:43] 	+Green runs up to the mare herself "Don't worry. I'm protecting her!"
[00:43] 	+Smooth-Jazz doesn't run anywhere.
[00:44] 	+Dust_Off watches the little runt run up and blurt out another lame falsehood and facehoofs.
[00:45] <+SilentBrony_GM>  The brutish mare eyes the faux-panicking lavender filly, Green rushes up about to proclaim something before tripping on a rock and faceplanting into the road. The mare turns to Sour_Grapes and asks in hurried concerned manner, "Who is?! Is it these assholes?!" She begins to lift her weapon towards the rest of the group.
[00:45] 	+Smooth-Jazz tuts. "You that filly's mama?" he asks Dust_Off.
[00:46] 	+Smooth-Jazz "Cause she's gonna get us killed. Dig?"
[00:46] 	+Roy_Calbeck takes cover behind the nearest solid object as the mare's firearm comes up.
[00:46] 	+Sour_Grapes laughs and pets the mare's leg, "Just teasin'. I heard ya got ants what need squashing?"
[00:46] 	+Dust_Off sighs and looks at Jazz.  "I'd cut out my womb, if she were. "
[00:47] <+Dust_Off> "Not every pegasus is related, muddweller."
[00:47] 	+Smooth-Jazz winces. "Eesh, no need to be so graphic, baby."
[00:47] 	+Roy_Calbeck peers out from behind cover, annoyedly.
[00:47] 	+Smooth-Jazz chuckles. "Mud dwelling's the best dwelling."
[00:48] <+SilentBrony_GM>  The Brutish Mare gives the filly a fierce frown before muttering an obscenity about kids, then says back to the group as they approach, "Yeah, We got a pretty nasty pest problem.. More than one it seems. Hang on a moment and I'll get Sour Puss."
[00:49] 	+Roy_Calbeck rejoins the group, giving Sour a glare.
[00:49] <+SilentBrony_GM>  the mare turns and opens one of the double doors, and slams it swiftly shut behind her.
[00:49] 	+Sour_Grapes grins at Roy_Calbeck, "What? Ya didn't get shot. Ain't ya ponies got a sense a humour or nothin?"
[00:49] 	+Dust_Off speaks quietly.  "That /wasn't/ Sour Puss?  I shudder to think who it will be."
[00:50] 	+Green rubs her wounded face and looks to Sour_Grape. "It's okay. The stalker can't do anything with me around."
[00:51] 	+Roy_Calbeck gives Green a sympathetic look; the kind often reserved for a town's "special needs individual".
[00:51] 	+Dust_Off looks down at the gullible mare on the ground.  Well, there was one in every crowd.  Let her learn for herself.
[00:52] 	+Sour_Grapes giggles and looks up at Dust_Off, "So... you can fly?"
[00:53] 	+Dust_Off looks down at the confilly.  "I can.  You want to learn, I take it?"
[00:53] 	+Roy_Calbeck blinks at the pegasus asking the other pegasus if she can fly, having missed (or more likely ignored) that bit of conversation back at the tavern.
[00:55] <+Green> "isn't flying just a bunch of flapping your wings about until they are strong enough?"
[00:55] 	+Sour_Grapes scrunches her face, "Depends, does learning invovle gettin' thrown off things?"
[00:55] 	+Roy_Calbeck grins hugely.  "Can I help you learn?"
[00:57] 	+Dust_Off looks up at Green.  "Yes.  Entirely.  You've broken our secret.  Now you dirty ponies will take to the skies.  No, it's a bit more than that, dear."  She smiled at Roy's suggestion.  "Filly, you've got a lot of nerve asking me after pulling that stunt."
[00:58] 	+Smooth-Jazz stretches out a bit. "Gotta admit, flying looks pretty fancy."
[00:58] 	+Sour_Grapes tilts her head, "It wasn't a stunt, if it was ya'd be dead~"
[00:59] <+Dust_Off> "Not helping your case, Sour Grape, was it?"
[00:59] 	+Green looks upset at Dust_off's talk about stunting."If you can teach her you should. It isn't right to just leave a filly when you can help her."
[01:00] 	+Dust_Off looked up at Green.  "She tried to get the ugly old mare to SHOOT US."
[01:00] <+Green> "You ain't a stalker."
[01:00] 	+Sour_Grapes sighs, "I didn't /try/ I succeeded. And then I stopped her. Ya'll should be thankin' me"
[01:01] <+SilentBrony_GM>  The group can hear the multiple sounds of hoofsteps, as the door swings open and exits out the large brutish mare from before, as well as three other ponies, two other earth ponies in similar matching dusters, while a Unicorn mare trails last in, wearing a necktie and cracked spectacles.
[01:01] 	&Sunrise ([email protected]) Quit (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)
[01:03] 	+Dust_Off glanced down at the filly.  "We should be shooting you, filly."  Dusty looks over at the group.
[01:03] 	+Roy_Calbeck snorts.  "I'll remember t' thank ya by checkin' fire when ya need support."
[01:04] 	+Sour_Grapes scratches the back of her head, "Ponies 'round these parts ain't got no sense of humour."
[01:04] 	+Smooth-Jazz juuuuuust watches
[01:05] 	Suzy_Q ([email protected]) Quit (RecvQ exceeded)
[01:05] 	+Green looks at the pair of ponies dumbfounded at their harsh words with the filly.
[01:05] <+SilentBrony_GM>  The Unicorn mare in her necktie regards the group with a frown and says bitterly, "Ugh.. I wanted mercs and I get a band of bucking misfits..." she gives a sigh and shakes her head then says, "Y'all here for the Ant problem?"
[01:05] 	Shadow77777778 ([email protected]) has joined #FalloutEquestriaPNP
[01:06] <+Roy_Calbeck> "Yeah."
[01:06] <+Smooth-Jazz> "Nope."
[01:06] 	+Sour_Grapes smirks at Dust_Off and turns to the unicorn, "That's right.
[01:06] <+Roy_Calbeck> "Somethin' about floodin' too, whatever that's about."
[01:06] 	Shadow77777778 is now known as Suzy_Q
[01:06] 	+Green strikes a pose "Aye, mam. I am here to fight the good fight!"
[01:07] <+Roy_Calbeck> *facehoofs*
[01:07] 	Sunrise ([email protected]) has joined #FalloutEquestriaPNP
[01:07] 	+Dust_Off sighs.  "Yes, ma'am.  We were directed her by a Mister Advice Column."
[01:07] 	ChanServ sets mode: +ao Sunrise Sunrise
[01:07] 	+Smooth-Jazz laughs at Green
[01:08] <+SilentBrony_GM>  The Unicorn mare gives Green an unamused look and mutters, "dash head.." before turning back and saying matter-of-factly, "Here's the deal. Down to the south in the ruins of Equinopia, are a bunch of bucking ants that for the longest time, just kept to themselves. Now they're getting aggressive and starting to come near our town in small packs."
[01:09] <+Green> "How have you been dealing with them so far? Any advice?"
[01:09] <+SilentBrony_GM>  The unicorn continues, "We need somepony to go down there and clear the whole bucking lot out. Y'all kill em and y'all get 150 caps each for your troubles, plus whatever spoils you manage to find."
[01:10] <+Roy_Calbeck> Hm.
[01:10] 	+Smooth-Jazz perks up at the caps.
[01:10] <+Roy_Calbeck> I'm in.
[01:11] 	+Sour_Grapes looks unipressed. "Wait, they're getting /more/ agressive, an ya are just offering a hundred fitty caps? We ain't suicidal, need ta be 200, each."
[01:11] <+SilentBrony_GM>  Sour Puss looks at Green and replies, "Yeah, shoot em in the head. They got a real nasty bite. Especially the small ones. They like to swarm ya too."
[01:12] 	+Dust_Off shrugged.  "It sounds fair enough.  I'm sure you all will need medical assistance along the way."  She glanced at Green.  Some more than most.
[01:14] 	+Ammy "Sounds good, I'll do it"
[01:14] <+SilentBrony_GM>  Sour Puss looks at Sour_Grapes and says with half-lidded eyes, "Look kid, they ain't that dangerous. They're more of a nuisance than anything, just can't spare the ponies to go out and clear em out with all the New Poniers lurking about with their damn squads."
[01:14] <+Roy_Calbeck> "South, huh?  Best be on our way, then.  Day's not gettin' any longer."
[01:14] 	+Roy_Calbeck heads off.
[01:14] 	+Sour_Grapes face hoofs and glares at the gang, "You're all idiots."
[01:14] <+Roy_Calbeck> "Yeah yeah, tell me again when I have some respect fer yer opinion."
[01:15] <+Green> "Are they poisonous or do they have some weak spot we can target other than the head?"
[01:16] 	+Ammy follows behind Roy at a distance
[01:16] 	+Dust_Off snorts.  "And you're a manipulative little monster."  Dusty hears an intelligence question from Green and stays around to hear the answer.
[01:16] <+SilentBrony_GM>  Sour Puss responds to green, "We haven't been bit by any yet that were. Then again we don't go anywhere near that place."
[01:17] 	+Sour_Grapes rolls her eyes, "Sorry for trying to get more money for putting out lives on the line, no needa be a butt 'bout it"
[01:17] 	+Green nods, accepting that answer as proof that all ants aren't poison, and then follows her companions towards the hive. "This will be so much fun. I've never saved settlers like this before."
[01:18] 	+Sour_Grapes follows along, wondering how she caught up with these guys. The raider gang she rolled with were smarter, and they were all crazy and high.
[01:18] <+SilentBrony_GM>  Sour puss turns to Sour_Grapes and replies, "Kid in the Mareizona, your life is always on line. Welcome." She adds the last part with a snide grin.
[01:18] 	+Ammy looks back at Green "You must be new to this whole wasteland thing"
[01:18] 	+Dust_Off trots to catch back up with the group, taking that answer to mean "Maybe."
[01:18] 	+Sour_Grapes laughs, "Be more cliche~"
[01:19] <+Green> "Yea, I am from Tenpony, and DJ Pon-3 is my hero."
[01:19] 	+Roy_Calbeck looks at Green.  "Who?"
[01:20] <+Green> "He's a radio pony and he talks to the entire wasteland trough the radio."
[01:20] <+SilentBrony_GM>  The group accepting the deal begin their trek down south. Greens pipbuck makes a slight audible blipping sound. When she looks, she notices strange words under one of the displays that read, 'Six-legged freaks' as well as an arrow pointing off to the southeast.
[01:21] <+Roy_Calbeck> "Never heard of 'im."
[01:21] 	+Green points towards her quest marker. "It's probably this way"
[01:22] 	+Ammy "Nothing gets past you Griffin eyes"
[01:22] <+SilentBrony_GM>  Trotting along the vast expanse, there is nothing but the occasional hill with many rocks. The Sun is now well past it's zenith, being obscured by various clouds does nothing to abate the intense heat they're all expericing.
[01:22] 	+Sour_Grapes rolls her eyes, "DJ can bite my flank," She mutters under her rbeath following Green
[01:22] <+Roy_Calbeck> "Don't get much chance to listen to radio anyways."
[01:22] <+Green> "You must'nt have got a radio then. It's okay, Radio is expensive. Unless you can repair one and find enough spark batteries to repair it."
[01:24] 	+Sour_Grapes looks around to see if anypony is looking and takes a Mint-Al. There might be fighting soon and she needed her sense. At least, that was her excuse
[01:24] 	+Dust_Off follows along..
[01:25] 	+Sour_Grapes suddenly everything explodes with colour making her grin. Much better.
[01:25] <+Roy_Calbeck> "We prolly better pick up th' pace, unless we wanna fight at night."
[01:27] 	+Dust_Off breaks into a comfortable trot.  "That sounds good.  I don't want to fight a nest of ants in the dark."
[01:27] <+Green> "I've got a nightlight on my pipbuck. It's awesome. There's also a button for radio."
[01:28] <+Dust_Off> "Have you ever fought with it on?"
[01:28] <+SilentBrony_GM>  As the group begins to trot to their destination, Ammy begins to feel weak and sluggish, the sweat constantly pouring from her forehead. She is beginning to feel short of breath.
[01:28] <+Green> "No. It makes it hard to concentrate."
[01:28] 	+Sour_Grapes pants a little, her mint-al powered senses making it hotter then she expected, "Better at night. Is too hot"
[01:29] 	+Dust_Off drops back next to the zebra.  "Miss, are you okay?  Can I help?"
[01:29] 	+Smooth-Jazz remains silent for some reason. What is he up to?
[01:29] <+Roy_Calbeck> "Lights at night are a great way to tell anything where ya are.  Try not ta use it."
[01:30] 	+Ammy clears her throat "I'm sure I'll be fine, grew up in the snow not used to the heat like you lot"
[01:31] 	+Dust_Off smiled.  "My name's Dust Off.  I'm a trained medic.  Heat can be quite severe and sneak up on you.  Are you sure you don't want help?"
[01:32] 	+Ammy smiles "I'm fine really, I'll call you though If I feel you know, near death or something"
[01:33] 	+Roy_Calbeck looks back at Ammy.  "If that happens, ya won't be able ta call anypony.  Heat stroke's a bitch that way."
[01:34] 	+Dust_Off purses her lips.  "If you start feeling faint or dizzy, call me.  DEFINITELY if you feel nauseous."  The medic pony stayed near.  If the patient didn't want help, she wasn't going to push it.
[01:35] 	+Smooth-Jazz is still silent
[01:35] 	+Ammy "I'm sure if I collaspse one of you will bring it up, or at least trip over my corpse
[01:36] 	+Roy_Calbeck looks at Smooth.  "Back there, when they talked about huntin' ants, you said 'nope'.  Changed yer mind?"
[01:36] 	+Sour_Grapes looks at Ammy, "Can I have your gun?"
[01:36] 	+Smooth-Jazz shrugs, but says nothing
[01:36] 	+Ammy raises a brow "Why?"
[01:37] 	+Dust_Off rolled her eyes.  Chump don't want no help; chump don't get no help.
[01:37] <+SilentBrony_GM>  The group round over a small hill, as they continue towards their destination, they can see off in the distance, a fairly sized distance are ruins of a small city, nestled near the base of a mountain range, a vast mountain range that scales as far as the eye can see beyond the city.
[01:37] 	+Roy_Calbeck stops to drink a bottle of water.
[01:37] 	+Sour_Grapes oos at the mountains, "Pretty."
[01:38] 	+Dust_Off also takes a sip of water as they stop at the crest of the hill.  She looks around them.
[01:38] 	+Smooth-Jazz does and says nothing.
[01:39] 	+Ammy is midly impressed "Canterlot mountain is more impressive, especially back when the city was still there"
[01:39] <+Roy_Calbeck> Hmm.
[01:39] 	+Green looks for ants, while taking a sip of water from her bottle.
[01:40] 	+Roy_Calbeck finishes off the bottle, hydrating.
[01:40] <+SilentBrony_GM>  Sour_Grapes under the effects of mint-als, notices far out near a ruined road leading into the city, small objects skittering about. Quite a few of them.
[01:40] 	+Dust_Off does not finish off the bottle, saving her water.  Who knows how long they might be out here?
[01:41] 	+Sour_Grapes smirks, "Looks like some of them ants are moving around the main road."
[01:41] 	&Sunrise ([email protected]) Quit (Quit: )
[01:42] <+SilentBrony_GM>  The hill rounds over and down to the flat expanse, the road begins not too far at the base of the hill they are currently on
[01:42] <+Green> "We should go kill them."
[01:43] <+SilentBrony_GM>  (the group notices this, doesn't actually move)
[01:43] <+Roy_Calbeck> "No time like th' present..."
[01:43] 	+Sour_Grapes starts down the road, "If we follow the main road we'll find lots and lots. C'mon. Lets get this over so we can get out ludcriously small salaray
[01:44] 	+Roy_Calbeck follows at a distance, levitating his hunting rifle up into a ready stance.
[01:44] 	+Dust_Off laughs at the filly, following towards the rear of the group.
[01:45] 	+Smooth-Jazz is silent.
[01:45] 	+Ammy nods unslinging her rifle
[01:46] 	+Green pulls out her family shovel and grips it in her mouth.
[01:46] <+SilentBrony_GM>  Four of the six party members begin to travel down and towards the road. There is vast expanse to their immediate right as well as flat expanse to their left that leads to the mountain range.
[01:46] 	+Roy_Calbeck hums a military-sounding song.
[01:47] 	+Dust_Off draws her revolver.
[01:47] <+SilentBrony_GM>  The Four that are actually moving, can see down the road numerous carriages, in massive states of disrepair and neglect.
[01:48] 	+Smooth-Jazz silently trots down too
[01:48] 	+Dust_Off visually checks the carriages as they pass, revolver in mouth.
[01:49] <+Roy_Calbeck> o/` "What are th' bugles blowin' for?" asked Files-on-Parade... "To turn you out, to turn you out," the Color-Sergeant said.  "What makes a vet'ran breathe so hard?" asked Files-on-Parade.  "I'm dreadin' what I've got t' watch," th' Color-Sergeant said...
[01:49] 	+Roy_Calbeck drops back off to humming as he moves forward.
[01:49] 	+Green gives out a muffled "aaw" at the sight these poor buildings.
[01:49] 	+Sour_Grapes tries to sing along with Roy_Calbeck despite no knowing the words
[01:49] 	+Ammy trots up beside Sour "you never said why you wanted my rifle"
[01:50] 	+Smooth-Jazz winces at the terrible singing. by that, he means Roy_Calbeck
[01:50] 	+Roy_Calbeck is not half-bad --- by which, of course, it can be asserted he's not half-good, either.
[01:50] 	+Sour_Grapes blinks, "I was kiddin, cause you joked bout dying."
[01:50] <+Roy_Calbeck> o/` "For they're hangin' Danny Deever..."
[01:51] <+SilentBrony_GM>  The straggling two of the Six manage to move up to their companions, as the six pass by three carriages. Dust_Off scans briefly each one, but doesn't find anything of importance.
[01:51] 	+Sour_Grapes scans the carragies as well
[01:52] 	+Smooth-Jazz scans nothing cause he doesn't give a shit
[01:52] 	+Roy_Calbeck peers ahead, trying to see where the ants are.
[01:52] <+SilentBrony_GM>  In her heigtened state of supra-clarity, Sour_Grapes manages to find a box in the last carriage the group passes by, it has a very faded insignia that even she can't manage to make out.
[01:53] 	+Sour_Grapes hopes over to the box and looks at it for a second before trying to open it
[01:53] 	+Roy_Calbeck notes Sour's reaction and holds up.
[01:54] 	+Dust_Off stops as well.  Oh, great, the monster found something.
[01:54] 	+Sour_Grapes is not a monster jerk
[01:54] 	+Roy_Calbeck does not engage in meta insulting -:)
[01:55] 	+Green keeps an eye on the group, while looking for ants on her EFS
[01:55] <+SilentBrony_GM>  The lavender filly hops into the interior, and lands on a skeleton on the floorboard. The box is tucked underneath one of the seats and she pulls the box out, eyeing the box, she notices the insignia again, but it is still much too faded to make out. She tries to open it to no avail.
[01:55] 	+Sour_Grapes kicks the bones away and kicks at the box, "Grr. Anypony know how to open secret boxes?"
[01:55] <+Roy_Calbeck> "Nope."
[01:56] 	+Dust_Off spits her revolver into her holster.  "Know the idea of it...but never done it before."
[01:56] <+SilentBrony_GM>  (there is also a hole in the box)
[01:56] 	+Sour_Grapes looks in the hole
[01:56] 	+Ammy Smiles "Was just about to suggest doing that"
[01:57] 	+Smooth-Jazz climbs up onto a carriage and sits down
[01:57] 	+Green spits out her shovel for a moment. "I can try bending it open with my shovel."
[01:57] 	+Roy_Calbeck walks up and peers closely at the insignia.
[01:57] <+SilentBrony_GM>  Roy fails to identify the insignia.
[01:58] 	+Dust_Off looks at the insignia.
[01:58] <+SilentBrony_GM>  Dust_Off also fails to identify the mystery insignia.
[01:58] 	+Smooth-Jazz doesn't bother with the insignia
[01:59] 	+Sour_Grapes doesn't care about insignias and just want it opened
[01:59] <+Roy_Calbeck> "Might's well take it along.  Can prolly find somepony back in town who can open it."
[01:59] 	+Green checks the insignia herself just because everypony else have tried.
[02:00] <+SilentBrony_GM>  Green also fails to identify the insignia.
[02:01] <+Roy_Calbeck> "Huh.  What with this hole?"
[02:02] 	+Sour_Grapes motions for everypony to stand back and shoots it at point blank range with her shotgun
[02:02] 	+Roy_Calbeck facehoofs
[02:03] 	+Dust_Off stands back, in fact rounds behind a carriage.  "I'm not treating you for stupidity!"
[02:05] 	+Green looks at the scenario rather miffed over why Sour would shoot the box, but scans the area again with her EFS to see if the ants or some angry ponies got attracted by the sound.
[02:06] <+SilentBrony_GM>  As the entire party backs away from what surely is a wonderful idea. A Filly with a shotgun shooting a metal box. The box flies back and hits the carriage, miraculously the box lands and simply opens, with a gigantic hole in it.
[02:06] 	+Sour_Grapes grins as she reloads her shotgun, "I'm a fucking surgon with this thing, "She looks inside the box! DUN DUN DUN!
[02:07] 	+Dust_Off peaks out from behind the carriage.
[02:07] 	+Smooth-Jazz mutters. "Whatever's inside is toast now..."
[02:07] <+Roy_Calbeck> "We should be so lucky."
[02:08] <+SilentBrony_GM>  Inside the box are Two healing potions, a small box of .308 rounds and... more shotgun shells, somehow through sheer luck the contents are not damaged in the least.
[02:08] <+Roy_Calbeck> "Huh.  Lucky indeed."
[02:08] 	Xavi ([email protected]) has joined #FalloutEquestriaPNP
[02:09] 	+Sour_Grapes smiles, "I claim a healing potion, and the shotgun shells cause I opened it."
[02:09] 	+Roy_Calbeck gives the box of .308 a covetous leer.
[02:09] 	+Dust_Off shook her head.  "Lucky, it didn't spall back and hit her."
[02:09] <+Sour_Grapes> "Dusty can have the other cause she medics stuff"
[02:09] <+Roy_Calbeck> "Fair enough."
[02:10] 	+Smooth-Jazz lifts the box of 308s above Roy_Calbeck's head with his magic
[02:10] 	+Roy_Calbeck looks at Smooth.
[02:11] 	+Smooth-Jazz doesn't look up
[02:11] <+Roy_Calbeck> -^-
[02:11] 	+Dust_Off raised an eyebrow.  "Thanks, kid."  The medic pegasus wandered up to the box and takes the healing potion and places it into her pack.
[02:11] 	+Sour_Grapes grabs the healing potion and ??? Shotgun shells
[02:11] <+Roy_Calbeck> "Hey, Dust Off... can you use th' .308 rounds?
[02:11] 	+Green muffles something about moving on and fighting ants.
[02:12] <+SilentBrony_GM>  Desperately, Dust_Off frantically checks to see if the precious insignia managed to evade the filly's shotgun wrath, as soon as the last of the contents are gone, she shoves away the crowd and looks on the box... but sadly the insignia is gone....
[02:12] 	+Smooth-Jazz sighs and dangles the ammo above Roy_Calbeck
[02:13] 	+Roy_Calbeck just looks at Smooth.
[02:13] 	+Dust_Off frowns.  The mystery destroyed.  She can only hope she remembers it.  "No, Roy, I have .32 caliber revolver."
[02:13] <+Roy_Calbeck> "Huh.  Thought somepony other than me had a rifle."
[02:13] <+Green> (thats ammy)
[02:13] 	+Smooth-Jazz doesn't say anything or look up. he raises the ammo higher above Roy_Calbeck
[02:14] 	+Roy_Calbeck waits for Smooth to tire of the game.  The unicorn is in no hurry.
[02:14] 	+Smooth-Jazz doesn't tire
[02:15] 	+Ammy looks at the contents if there was anything in there worth use she didn't want it
[02:15] 	+Roy_Calbeck waits for Smooth to use up his Telekinesis points.  -:)
[02:15] <+SilentBrony_GM>  Sour_Grapes recovers six shotgun shells while Smooth-Jazz collects 10 .308 rifle rounds from the box.
[02:15] 	+Smooth-Jazz pockets the rounds and huffs in amusment
[02:15] <+Roy_Calbeck> "Welp, let's get movin'.
[02:16] 	+Dust_Off tiredly watches the sax pony fool about.
[02:16] 	+Sour_Grapes smiles. "We've all learned a valuable lesson about loot." She hops off the carraige, "To bug squashing!"
[02:16] <+Dust_Off> "Very mature, Mister Jazz." The pegasus draws her revolver again and heads down the road.
[02:16] 	+Roy_Calbeck looks back at Ammy to see what she's carrying in terms of weaponry.
[02:17] <+SilentBrony_GM>  Roy notices that Ammy is wielding a hunting rifle.
[02:18] 	+Roy_Calbeck nods to Smooth.  "Hey, you wanna hoof those rounds over to a pony who can use 'em?  Like yer zebrafriend here?"
[02:19] <+SilentBrony_GM>  Half of the group is heading down the road, while the other half perform shenanigans, as they are starting to get ever closer to their destination. Roy_Calbeck is first to notice two more carriages along the path.
[02:19] 	+Smooth-Jazz looks over his glasses at Ammy and levitates them over to her without saying a word, dropping them in her saddlebag. He winks before turning and moving on.
[02:19] 	+Roy_Calbeck trots up behind one carriage and, using it as cover (because that's ALWAYS smart), looks around the side.
[02:20] 	+Green keeps close to Sour_Grapes.
[02:21] 	+Dust_Off follows Roy's example, but can't resist a peak into the carriage they're behind.
[02:21] <+Roy_Calbeck> "Don't see anythin'..."
[02:21] 	+Sour_Grapes ([email protected]) Quit (Connection closed)
[02:23] 	Fridge ([email protected]) Quit (Connection closed)
[02:23] 	No_One ([email protected]) has joined #FalloutEquestriaPNP
[02:23] 	ChanServ sets mode: +v No_One
[02:24] 	+Smooth-Jazz yawns
[02:24] 	No_One is now known as Sour_Grapes
[02:25] 	+Green keeps close to Sour_Grapes.
[02:25] 	+Roy_Calbeck hums, "For they're hangin' Danny Deever, you can hear th' quickstep play...."
[02:25] 	+Ammy trails behind drinking from her bottles
[02:26] 	Arcane_Scroll is now known as Arcane_Sleeping[A]
[02:26] 	+Roy_Calbeck sneaks up around the carriage.
[02:26] <+SilentBrony_GM>  As Roy_Calbeck peers around the carriage to survey the distance between them and their destination, he is fairly oblivious to the slight chittering sound that Dust_Off manages to hear inside the carriage they are taking cover in.
[02:26] <+Roy_Calbeck> "The regiment's in hollow-square, they're hangin' 'im to-day..."
[02:26] 	+Smooth-Jazz honestly has no idea why he is going with
[02:27] <+Green> (You're with Ammy, trailing behind)
[02:27] 	+Roy_Calbeck presumes it's because the jazz player is hot for the zebra.
[02:27] <+Smooth-Jazz> (I know that, I have no idea why Smooth-Jazz is going on this trip.)
[02:27] 	+Roy_Calbeck does not, of course, say anything so crass out loud.
[02:27] 	+Smooth-Jazz looks bored and tired, not even noticing the zebra
[02:28] 	+Dust_Off backs away from the carriage.  "Roy, back up from the carriage." She says around her pistol.
[02:28] <+Sour_Grapes> "We fighting yet?"
[02:28] <+Green> "Why have you guys taken cover?"
[02:29] <+Roy_Calbeck> "Eh?"
[02:29] 	+Smooth-Jazz ignores everypony
[02:29] <+Dust_Off> "something's in the carriage."
[02:29] 	+Roy_Calbeck backs away...
[02:29] <+Green> "Then check it out?"
[02:29] <+SilentBrony_GM>  As Dust_Off barely manages to finish her sentence, A large mandible closes down at Roy_Calbeck, as he manages to jump back just before it clamps on his blond head.
[02:30] <+Roy_Calbeck> Damn!
[02:30] 	+Roy_Calbeck tries to club the chomping head with the butt of his rifle.
[02:30] <+SilentBrony_GM>  There is a fierce shrieking sound, as a large ant head is caught in the window of the carriage, writhing to break free.
[02:30] 	+Dust_Off moves to get a clear shot, aims for the head and fires.
[02:31] 	+Sour_Grapes pulls out her shotgun and aims
[02:31] 	+Smooth-Jazz simply walks away. Fuck fighting, I'm a musician, not a fighter.
[02:31] 	+Smooth-Jazz settles for half assedly aiming his smg from afar
[02:32] 	+Ammy pulls out her rifle and aiming at the ant
[02:32] 	+Roy_Calbeck hopes that, being at point-blank with the ant's head, he is not the first casualty of that half-ass-aimed SMG
[02:33] 	@Strobe ([email protected]) has left #FalloutEquestriaPNP ("")
[02:33] 	+Green proceeds to bash the ant's head with her shovel :3
[02:33] 	+Smooth-Jazz yawns and steadies his aim before taking off his glasses and rubbing his eyes.
[02:34] 	+Smooth-Jazz "Why am I doing this." he grumbles to himself
[02:39] <+SilentBrony_GM>  Green swings her shovel, but only manages to bash the side of the carriage.
[02:40] 	+Sour_Grapes fires an aimed shot at the beasts head
[02:45] <+SilentBrony_GM>  Sour_Grapes carefully aims and plants two buckshot blasts into the ants head, severely crippling it, it's body struggling to move as it begins to writhe around.
[02:45] 	+Sour_Grapes smirks, "Amatuer"
[02:46] 	Eridani ([email protected]) Quit (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)
[02:47] 	+Roy_Calbeck backs the hell up.
[02:48] <+Roy_Calbeck> "All yours."
[02:48] 	+Dust_Off takes an aimed shot for the beast's head.
[02:49] 	+Smooth-Jazz "...Wimp..."
[02:49] 	+Ammy glares at Jazz {Say's the one who ran away} she says in Zebra
[02:50] 	+Smooth-Jazz didn't run away, more walked away in boredom.
[02:51] 	+Smooth-Jazz yawns
[02:51] 	+Roy_Calbeck can't hear Smooth from this far away anyways, so doesn't mind.
[02:52] <+SilentBrony_GM>  As Roy_Calbeck moves out of the way of the incoming gunfire, Dust_Off unloads a round into the ants head, making the creature fall limp and lifeless inside the carriage, ichor pussing out the various holes.
[02:52] 	+Sour_Grapes grins and high hooves Dust_Off, "Way to show the muddwellers how it's done"
[02:53] 	+Smooth-Jazz holsters his smg. "Pleasent." he yawns
[02:53] 	+Dust_Off smiles and looks around make sure there isn't any more.  She meets Grape's high hoof.
[02:54] <+Dust_Off> "Pegasi get things done.
[02:54] 	+Green hacks off the head and checks the carriage for why the ant was inside of it.
[02:55] <+SilentBrony_GM>  As Green hacks the head off, the rest of the body, slumps, spilling more ichor in the interior. Inside are various open boxes of old pre-war food as well as the rotted corpse of an earth pony under one of the seats.
[02:56] 	+Roy_Calbeck uses his TK to pick over the corpse.
[02:56] 	+Ammy inspects the land around her
[02:56] <+Roy_Calbeck> "Nice work."
[02:57] 	+Dust_Off pops open her cylinder and reloads the spent round.  She smiles around her gun at Roy.
[02:57] 	+Smooth-Jazz finds a rock and lies back against it, smoking his cigarette and watching the sky.
[02:57] 	+Sour_Grapes reloads her shotty, "You ain't half bad>"
[02:57] 	+Smooth-Jazz silently wishes for rain. He likes rain.
[02:58] 	+Green throws the rest of the ant body out of the carriage without much worry for her barding getting mush on it.
[02:59] 	+Smooth-Jazz unpacks his sax and plays a little tune
[02:59] 	+Green checks the earth pony corpse for anything that can identify it.
[02:59] <+SilentBrony_GM>  Ammy finds nothing out of the ordinary as she scans the area, Roy_Calbeck searches the corpse and manages to find underneath the body a .32 Caliber pistol in poor very poor condition.
[03:00] <+Green> "He probably went asleep and became ant food overnight."
[03:00] 	+Dust_Off uses her vast...well for this group medical knowledge to see if she can take anything from the ant's body.
[03:00] <+Roy_Calbeck> Hm.
[03:00] 	+Roy_Calbeck shrugs and drops the .32 into his saddlebag.
[03:01] 	+Sour_Grapes trots to the front of the carraige looking out for trouble
[03:01] <+SilentBrony_GM>  Green searches the corpse and besides obvious caping wounds across the length and width of the pony's body and two missing legs, she can't see anything else out of the ordinary that would cause the Pony death beyond the wounds he already possible suffered while alive.
[03:01] <+Roy_Calbeck> "Looks like a fair amount of food in there..."
[03:02] <+SilentBrony_GM>  (gaping wounds*)
[03:02] <+Green> "Ugh. Why was he here?"
[03:02] <+Sour_Grapes>  /me "Bet is was posion."
[03:02] 	+Sour_Grapes "Bet is was posion"
[03:03] 	+Roy_Calbeck stares at Sour.  "He's missing two legs."
[03:03] <+SilentBrony_GM>  Dust_Off sticks her hoof inside the ants head and manages to wrestle out a strange gland.
[03:04] 	+Green checks the carriage for anything other than food that might reveal why or what the pony might have been doing out here alone.
[03:05] 	+Dust_Off examines the gland.  Well, she wasn't an entomologist, but it might be work something.  She wraps it up in...something that won't get her bags nasty and puts in her bag.  She glances at the pony corpse.  "Removal of legs is a leading cause of death."
[03:05] 	+Ammy speaks up "Perhaps he was the last pony that "delightful" mare sent to kill the ants"
[03:05] <+Dust_Off> She said with a deadpan voice.
[03:05] <+Green> "You don't fight ants by hiding in a carriage with lots of food"
[03:05] <+SilentBrony_GM>  Green manages to spot underneath another seat across from the corpse, just barely sticking out in a bunch of ruined and opened prewar food boxes, a holotape.
[03:06] 	+Green grabs the holotape.
[03:06] 	+Smooth-Jazz finishes his song and smiles, relaxing. he reclines against the rock once more.
[03:06] 	+Roy_Calbeck scuffs through the food boxes to see if anything's salvageable.
[03:06] 	+Dust_Off glances at the food.  "The pony might have been squating here."  She shrugs.  "There's no point in forensics at this point.  Let's get the food and go."
[03:08] <+Green> "Eeew. That's corpse food. Worse, it's been out here in the heat for ages."
[03:08] 	+Green trots out of the carraige with her prize. The holotape.
[03:08] <+SilentBrony_GM>  Roy_Calbeck searches around for anything that could be used, but sadly none of the food he finds isn't already opened or spoiled.
[03:09] <+Roy_Calbeck> Feh.
[03:09] 	+Sour_Grapes taps her hoovies on the ground
[03:09] <+Dust_Off> "Green, Pre-War food survived balefire, it's always worth a look."
[03:09] <+Green> "Gross."
[03:09] <+Roy_Calbeck> "Not this time.  Let's go."
[03:09] <+SilentBrony_GM>  Green has the holotape now aquired in her inventory.
[03:10] <+Dust_Off> "Oh well."  Dusty starts walking.
[03:10] 	+Roy_Calbeck follows
[03:10] <+Green> "Onward, to fight more good fights."
[03:10] 	+Sour_Grapes follows beside Dusty, "So. If you can fly, why're you down here?"
[03:10] 	+Smooth-Jazz yawns, putting his hooves behind his head
[03:11] 	+Ammy streches her limps for a soft cracking and follows suit
[03:11] 	+Dust_Off glances down at the filly.  "Well other than lightning cannons in the clouds.  Right now, my wings are strained."
[03:12] 	+Sour_Grapes looks at Dust's wings, "If ya say so."
[03:12] <+SilentBrony_GM>  With the holotape aquired from the earth pony corpse, and a horde of ants to clear out for a nearby settlement, and a mysterious insignia unsolved, what other secrets and dangers are in store for our band of wasteland travelers? Stay tuned for the next installment of Star Group PnP.
