  1. [12:59] <TenMihara> *****PnP Group 13, Hoofington Sucks: Session 32*****
  2. [13:03] <TenMihara> Purpose
  3. [13:03] <TenMihara> They say everyone is born with a purpose, or a destiny, or some reason for being
  4. [13:04] <TenMihara> 'They' probably never had to account for the wasteland though
  5. [13:05] <TenMihara> In the wasteland, it's very rare that anyone gets to realize their purpose
  6. [13:05] <TenMihara> If they ever had one to begin with.
  7. [13:06] <TenMihara> When you live in a world where you're lucky to live to thirty, it's not easy to focus on higher purposes
  8. [13:06] <TenMihara> On occasion though, some folks manage to beat the odds and really accomplish something
  9. [13:07] <TenMihara> Will our band of wastelanders accomplish anything worthwhile?
  10. [13:07] <TenMihara> I guess we'll find out...
  11. [13:07] <TenMihara> *****Session Begins*****
  12. [13:09] <TenMihara> The party has arrived back at Megamart after a lucky stumble across a buried box of caps alogn the way. Their intent seems to be to stock up before Razor takes her challenge.
  13. [13:09] * Rime_ slinks alongside Razor as they approach Megamart.
  14. [13:11] * Harmony continues puts her plasma pistol away as they draw nearer, figuring it to be safe enough.
  15. [13:11] * Green_Field walks at or toward the rear and continues his attempted education of Daisy.
  16. [13:13] * Logic_Gates shuffled back into the Megamart and immediately into the security room without much in terms of words. With a blare of dubtrot, he announced his arrival more powerfully than simple shouting.
  17. [13:13] <TenMihara> Daisy, though eager, has to work through a complete lack of education, training or anything of the sort beyond the literacy she was (just barely at that) taught by the pony who had helped her escape slavery.
  18. [13:13] * Razor is psyching herself up. This is it! One last stop before she heads off to the stadium...
  19. [13:14] * Rime_ looks around ears flattening at the explosive sound. She instinctively dives to cover... Which happens to be under Razor.
  20. [13:14] <TenMihara> The customers at Megamart seem surprised at the wubs, but continue their shopping. Considering it's the middle of the afternoon, nopony seems to care as much. Even Bottlecap hasn't come out to smack him. Yet anyways.
  21. [13:17] * Logic_Gates continues to MC this impromptu rave until a Bottlecap comes to stop him. But he starts putting together the papers he kept on the wall.
  22. [13:20] * Razor rolls her eyes at the music. That colt just can't help himself, can he?
  23. [13:21] * Harmony continues with Proverb into Megamart. Harmony didn't need to buy anything, so she waits for the other mare to decide where to go.
  24. [13:25] * Rime_ keeps an eye out for her colt friend. He darted away while she was gawking. This place is really different from Toll.
  25. [13:26] * Razor heads off to look for a place that sells weapons... preferrably of the slashy kind. She wants to be as ready for her fight as possible.
  26. [13:27] <TenMihara> Daisy is slightly spooked by the wubs and comes in close to Green_Field in a moment of surprise
  27. [13:29] <TenMihara> Razor would most definitely be interested in Carver's Cutlery then.
  28. [13:31] * Rime_ is torn between sticking with the muscle or exploring. She decides to slink away and see what she can run into.
  29. [13:32] * Green_Field spooked himself by her sudden movement recovers and chuckles putting a hoof around her, "that's just logic playing what he calls music. Come on, I want get somehing at the bar."
  30. [13:32] * Razor heads inside Carver's Cutlery, then!
  31. [13:34] <TenMihara> There is no inside, everything at Megamart is a stall or a booth
  32. [13:35] <TenMihara> Daisy nods and follows Green_Field
  33. [13:36] <Rime_> *decides to locate her colt friend and begins the search for Logic_Gates
  34. [13:36] * Logic_Gates is in the Security room!
  35. [13:38] * Harmony nuzzles Proverb. "Is there anything you need to buy while in Megamart?"
  36. [13:38] <TenMihara> The source of the music is easy enough to find when Rime_ spots Bottlecap coming out of her office and marching over to security.
  37. [13:38] * Proverb nods. "Yeah, uhm, more .308 rounds."
  38. [13:38] * Rime_ slinks into the security room. Obviously one should always sneak I to a security room. It's just what one does
  39. [13:38] * Proverb heads to where the weapon and ammo vendors were.
  40. [13:39] * Rime_ sneaky sneaks behind Bottlecap.
  41. [13:40] * Harmony follows Proverb.
  42. [13:42] <TenMihara> Bottlecap glances into the security room and waves to Logic, "Back are you? Been having fun adventuring?"
  43. [13:42] * Razor is going shopping, and semantics won't stop her! She doesn't care if it's a booth or a building, or 2-inch tall zebra, she's gonna shop, and that's final!
  44. [13:42] * Logic_Gates starts tucking some papers into his saddlebags. "Bottlecap. A friend of mine died. I might be moving to the collegiate soon." He wasn't one for small talk.
  45. [13:43] * Green_Field asks the barkeep when they arrive, "you sell wine bottles right?"
  46. [13:43] <TenMihara> Bottlecap blinks, "Oh." She seems a bit surprised. "They let you in finally?"
  47. [13:43] <TenMihara> Barkeep looks up, "Um... I might have a couple. Although usually people just ask for a glass to sip through the evening."
  48. [13:44] <TenMihara> Carver looks at Razor and the existing pointy things on her armour, "What are you looking for?"
  49. [13:45] * Logic_Gates shrugs. "Kind of. I'm going to be working on a project until I can get in properly. I figured you might need to know to get the necessary preparations done before I leave."
  50. [13:45] * Rime_ watches the pair from a shadowed corner. A rival has appeared? She glares out from the darkness.
  51. [13:46] * Razor eyes Carver. "Show me the nastiest, sharpest, most deadly things you have!"
  52. [13:47] <Green_Field> "I'd like the buy a full bottle if I can."
  53. [13:48] <TenMihara> Caver smirks, showing a few chipped an broken teeth, like he'd been in a lot of brawls in his life, "I like the way you think. What'cha need it for?"
  54. [13:48] <TenMihara> Bottlecap nods, "Right. You're difficult to replace you know."
  55. [13:50] * Proverb looks for ammo vendors!
  56. [13:50] * Logic_Gates looks away for a bit. "I figure you'll get on just fine. If the new guy wants me to write him up a tutorial, I will gladly do so."
  57. [13:50] <TenMihara|GM> There are plenty!
  58. [13:51] * Proverb trots up to one of them. "Uhm, excuse me."
  59. [13:51] <TenMihara|GM> Bottlecap nods, "That'd be cool. Won't be the same without you though. Not that that is necessarily a bad thing given..." she hits the button to kill the music, "that."
  60. [13:52] <TenMihara|GM> The vendor ponies barely seem to notice the small, presence lacking pegasus
  61. [13:52] * Harmony clears her throat, behind Proverb. "Excuse me."
  62. [13:53] * Razor keeps eyeing Carver. That's a messed up smile. "I've got a date with a reaper!" She grins. "I've gotta be at my best!"
  63. [13:53] <TenMihara|GM> The vendor does however take notice of the stunning Harmony. "Well hello there gorgeous. How can i be of service today?"
  64. [13:53] <TenMihara|GM> Barkeep nods, "Alright. Red or white?"
  65. [13:54] * Harmony nods her head to Proverb. "I believe this pegasus would like to purchase .308 rounds."
  66. [13:55] <TenMihara|GM> Carver chuckles, "You wouldn't be the first. Now, lemme give you a bit of advice, since I can see you appreciate a good edge. There's an old saying; guns for show, knives for a pro. As a fellow professional, I would recommend something that can put on a show -and- kill things." He grabs a sword in his mouth and sets it in front of her.
  67. [13:55] * Logic_Gates kicks up a bit of dust. "Just have to get a mass data storage device and I'm... Well. Out of your mane." He gnashes his teeth. "Thanks."
  68. [13:55] * Proverb nods. "Yeah, .308s. And i-if you have any specialty rounds, I'd like those too please."
  69. [13:56] <TenMihara|GM> The vendor nods and looks down to Proverb, ".308's? Kinda big for a pony your size."
  70. [13:56] <Green_Field> "Right. Should have known there would be types. Uh, just give me both."
  71. [13:57] <TenMihara|GM> Barkeep nods and heads into his cellar, coming back up with a pair of bottles, one red, one white. "Some kind of occasion?"
  72. [13:57] * Proverb raises an eyebrow. "I can handle it. Used to shoot an SVD, those're chambered in 7.62."
  73. [13:58] * Razor inspects the sword carefully. She's serious about her blades!
  74. [13:59] * Green_Field smiles at Daisy, "yes, actually."
  75. [13:59] <TenMihara|GM> The vendor looks skeptical, but shrugs, "Your call. No idea what an SVD is though. Let's see..." He rummages around in a few ammo boxes, coming up with a number of loose .308 rounds. He comes up with twenty-three in total, two of which have the white tips of an incendiary round, and two more she would recognize as Armour Piercing rounds
  76. [13:59] <TenMihara|GM> Daisy blinks and tilts her head
  77. [14:00] * Rime_ remains hidden. Watching Logic_Gates go all awkward. She seethes.
  78. [14:00] * Proverb nods. "Right, I'll take all of them please."
  79. [14:00] <TenMihara|GM> The sword, Razor can tell, was lovingly crafted. Time has tarnished the metal a bit, but the edges have remained sharp. There's also a gem in the hilt.
  80. [14:01] * Razor gives a slight nod, but eyes the gem curiously. "...What's this?"
  81. [14:02] <TenMihara|GM> Bottlecap gives him a light smack on the head, "You earned your keep, so it's all good. Just don't do the same thing at the Collegiate. The eggheads might not be as forgiving as I am."
  82. [14:02] <TenMihara|GM> Bottlecap is of course referring to the musical wake-up calls.
  83. [14:03] <TenMihara|GM> Carver smirks, "Press it and find out. Take it off the table first."
  84. [14:04] * Green_Field putting his hoof on her withers again, "you'll see later." He turns back to the barkeep and gets out his bag if caps and gives him 40 for the bottles, "thanks."
  85. [14:05] <TenMihara|GM> The Barkeep nods, "Twenty-five each if you want the whole bottles." She smirks. Demand had clearly gone up
  86. [14:05] * Logic_Gates smirks. "You'd be surprised." He sits down and sighs. "I'll see you later. I know how you're all tsundre for me and everything, but I just don't feel that way about you. You're more like a substitute sister to me. Or maybe a mom. I wouldn't have any frame of reference."
  87. [14:06] <TenMihara|GM> Bottlecap blinks, "...The hell is a tunsdere?"
  88. [14:06] * Razor gives Carver a confused look, but grabs the sword in her mouth, and presses on the gem.
  89. [14:06] * Green_Field gets out another ten, "damn economics."
  90. [14:07] * Logic_Gates "Its when you hate-fuck someone." He nods sagely.
  91. [14:07] <TenMihara|GM> Barkeep smirks, "Pleasure doing business with you."
  92. [14:07] <TenMihara|GM> Bottlecap glowers and smacks Logic a lot harder this time, "You're an annoying little squirt and I won't miss your stupid porn talk."
  93. [14:09] <TenMihara|GM> The sword crackles to life with electricity. "Can't do any finer than a zebra-made blade. At least unless your weapon has a motor in it," notes Carver. "It's hella hard to find one with a lightning gem that still works."
  94. [14:09] * Logic_Gates smirks, recovering from the blow nearly instantly. Repeated blows to the face has made him a tough little bastard. "I'll miss you, too." He said, going in for a hug.
  95. [14:11] * Green_Field thinks getting robbed isn't pleasurable, but says nothing. He turns once again to Daisy, "as much as I want later to be now, we should find the others."
  96. [14:11] <TenMihara|GM> Bottlecap shoves him off, "Just get that tutorial read." She rolls her eyes and wanders off
  97. [14:12] <TenMihara|GM> Daisy still looks confused, but nods and falls in next to him
  98. [14:13] * Razor gives Carver a bit of a glare. She's not sure she likes the idea of using a zebra weapon... but it looks well-made, and that electricity seems just nasty. She takes it out of her mouth and holds it in her telekinesis, giving it one final look over. "... How much is it?"
  99. [14:13] * Logic_Gates smiles, and then goes off to try to find Razor.
  100. [14:14] * Rime_ is ablaze with wrath. See woulda charged out and slapped a bitch for that last punch if she hasn't been so transfixed by rage.
  101. [14:15] <TenMihara|GM> Carver doesn't give a price just yet. "Now, lemme give you a tip kid. You wanna get in with the Reapers? You gotta know more than just how to swing a sword around. You gotta make the audience like you. If you can't do that, you're fucked."
  102. [14:16] <TenMihara|GM> The vendor looks to Proverb and counts off the ammo, "79 for the lot."
  103. [14:17] * Proverb nods, hoofing over the caps. "Thanks!"
  104. [14:17] * Razor rolls her eyes at that. "You think I don't know that? I've been looking forward to this for a long time!"
  105. [14:18] <Rime_> *stands alone in the security room pondering acts of petty vandalism. That bitch. She looks for something important looking.
  106. [14:18] <TenMihara|GM> Carver nods, "Alright then." he looks her over, trying to see how much he can milk her for.
  107. [14:21] <TenMihara|GM> Rime_ figures there's lots of important bits, but messing with them when she didn't understand the electronics might get her fried. Or noticed.
  108. [14:23] <TenMihara|GM> The vendor nods, though still seems more interested in Harmony
  109. [14:23] * Harmony gives the vendor a smile before nudging along Proverb. "Any more shopping?"
  110. [14:24] * Proverb nods. "I wanna check one more vendor for .308s."
  111. [14:24] * Proverb trots over to another one of the ammo vendors!
  112. [14:26] * Rime_ hates electronics. Stupid terminals. Stupid robots. Stupid bitch-cunts messing with /her/ colt friend. She could blow it /all/ up, but that wouldn't end well. She just doesn't know enough to pick out something small worth destroying.
  113. [14:26] <TenMihara|GM> Accross various Venders, Proverb can find a total of 6 more each AP and Incendiary, and up to 80 standard .308 rounds
  114. [14:26] * Harmony makes sure to get the attention of the first vendor for Proverb, pointing down to Proverb so that she can do her shopping.
  115. [14:27] * Proverb goes ahead and buys up all of the rounds that are available.
  116. [14:29] * Razor eyes Carver back intimidatingly.
  117. [14:29] <TenMihara|GM> Carver smirks, "1600."
  118. [14:30] <TenMihara|GM> Carver isn't intimidated, if Razor started shit, not only did he have a shelf full of weapons, but Gun would paste her
  119. [14:31] <TenMihara|GM> Logic finds Razor, fancy that
  120. [14:32] * Logic_Gates goes up to Razor, digs out his papers, and then uses them to gently tap her on the side. "Hey. I have something for you."
  121. [14:33] * Razor "I have..." She takes out her bag of caps and drops it on the table. "this much." She turns toward Logic_Gates and eyes him. "What? I'm busy here!"
  122. [14:33] * Rime_ slinks off. Wandering randomly about in an increasingly more sour mood.
  123. [14:34] * Logic_Gates doesn't seem intimidated. "I have something I was meaning to give to Purple_Kay to give you." He slides a stack of schematics in front of Razor.
  124. [14:36] * Proverb nuzzles Harmony. "Think we should go find Razor and the others now?"
  125. [14:36] * Harmony nods. "Sure. Since we are already done." Harmony nuzzles back before she starts to wander around Megamart, looking for her companions.
  126. [14:38] * Proverb trots after Harmony.
  127. [14:38] <TenMihara|GM> Harmony, Green_Field, Daisy and Proverb all find Razor and Logic_Gates. Crazy
  128. [14:40] <TenMihara|GM> Rime_ ends up following Logic back to Razor
  129. [14:40] * Razor eyes the papers, scrunching her nose. This looks confusing. All kinds of diagrams and numbers... "And why did you think I wanted these?"
  130. [14:41] * Green_Field and Daisy join up with the others.
  131. [14:41] * Harmony eyes the counter and Razor, trotting up beside her. "Buying a new sword, Razor?"
  132. [14:41] * Rime_ slinks up behind them, giving Logic_Gates a wide berth. She glances at the papers. "Those look neat."
  133. [14:42] <TenMihara|GM> Carver raises an eyebrow, "Friends of yours, 'Razor'?"
  134. [14:44] * Logic_Gates lowers his eyelids at Razor. "They're schematics for fucking elemental blades. Like, a sword that shoots acid and electricity and radioactive shit.
  135. [14:44] * Razor glances between Carver and Harmony. "Yes. And yes." She glances at Rime. "Then... here!" She hoofs her the papers. "You hold these, if you like them so much!"
  136. [14:45] * Rime_ examines the schematics.
  137. [14:46] <TenMihara|GM> Carver nods, "Like I said, 1600 for the sword." He sifts through her cap pouch.
  138. [14:47] <TenMihara|GM> Carver looks up, "Gonna need another 600 at least."
  139. [14:47] * Razor glares at Carver, as if blaming him for her lack of caps, then glances back at Harmony.
  140. [14:48] <Proverb> "Uhm, I can cover it..."
  141. [14:48] * Harmony smiles and looks to Carver. "Perhaps you would be willing to discount the price? It is not often that such a valuable item is sold. In addition, Razor is going to try and become a Reaper, she could even advertise your stand at the stadium. Say, would 1,300 suffice?"
  142. [14:49] <TenMihara|GM> Harmony manages to haggle Carver back down to 1200
  143. [14:49] * Rime_ "these are pretty ingenious... I could totally make these."
  144. [14:50] * Logic_Gates blinks. "Uh. Thanks. I made them. There's even a sword that does shock stuff and one constructed of hardened light. Don't know what you'd need for that last one, though."
  145. [14:50] <TenMihara|GM> Razor still needs to fork over another 269 caps
  146. [14:51] * Proverb puts the remaining 269 caps down for Razor.
  147. [14:53] * Logic_Gates looks around the stall for stuff you'd use to make the sword system.
  148. [14:53] * Rime_ flips through the schematics till she comes to one in a different style. The first laid out the theory, this one gives a detailed parts list and some substitution options...
  149. [14:56] <TenMihara|GM> Carver smirks, "Pleasure doing business with you. Good luck, you're gonna need it."
  150. [14:57] * Logic_Gates peeks over Rime's shoulder. "Kay wrote that down."
  151. [14:58] * Razor grins and puts the sword away. She feels much more prepared, now!
  152. [14:59] * Proverb offers Razor a small smile.
  153. [14:59] * Rime_ "Kay?"
  154. [15:04] * Razor glances between everypony. "Do we need anything else? Or are we ready to go? I'm ready to go!"
  155. [15:05] * Logic_Gates frowned. "Friend of mine."
  156. [15:06] * Proverb adjusts her eyepatch, nodding. "I'm ready, yeah."
  157. [15:07] * Logic_Gates sighs. "Yep. Ready." He got an irrational feeling this was going to end badly.
  158. [15:07] <Rime_> *looks over. "He planing to build it?"
  159. [15:08] <Green_Field> "We're ready."
  160. [15:08] * Logic_Gates shrugs. "Honestly? I made them on a dare. Don't know."
  161. [15:14] <TenMihara|GM> It's possible to make it out to the Reaper Stadium before nightfall, barely, but they might have to wait for the following day to actually make the challenge.
  162. [15:16] * Razor is ready and raring to go! She has no qualms about camping out!
  163. [15:18] <Green_Field> "Well if we're going, let's get moving or else let's find a place here to stay. Either is fine with me."
  164. [15:20] * Logic_Gates looks at Rime. "You need stuff to get it working?"
  165. [15:21] * Razor starts heading off in the direction of the Stadium. "Then come on! Let's go!"
  166. [15:22] * Logic_Gates hoofwaves. "You go. Me and Rime will meet you there."
  167. [15:23] * Rime_ looks over the list and hoofs it over. "Everything on the list and a place to work."
  168. [15:24] * Green_Field to Logic_Gates and Rime_, "how long are the two of you going to be?"
  169. [15:24] * Logic_Gates looks at Green. "We'll be there sooner than you will."
  170. [15:25] * Green_Field nods understanding, "fair enough."
  171. [15:27] * Green_Field starts walking with Razor, "let's get moving then."
  172. [15:27] * Proverb nods, setting out after them.
  173. [15:29] * Razor trots at a quick pace! She's eager to get there fast!
  174. [15:29] * Harmony pulls out her rifle before continuing at a pace matching Razor's.
  175. [15:37] * Rime follows Logic_Gates from shop to shop looking for parts. She's a bit more standoffish than before.
  176. [15:38] * Logic_Gates kind of wonders what's with the hostility. He doesn't speak up much, though.
  177. [15:42] <TenMihara|GM> Shopping around for the parts, Rime and Logic figure it would cost them around 350 for all the spare bits and bobs to set up the interchangeing systems in addition to the basic Phoenix Talon design.
  178. [15:46] * Rime looks to Logic. "So... You springing for this? My caps were in the house."
  179. [15:47] * Logic_Gates blinks. "All my caps went into the thing on my back that's going to save my life."
  180. [15:48] * Rime "Well, unless you can get your /other/ fillyfriend to pony up the caps, we'll need another plan." She glares, remembering again that she's angry.
  181. [15:51] * Logic_Gates sighs. "Hold on. Let's put this on the backburner for now." He summoned his magic to his horn again. It felt more... Well, better. Let's see how well better is.
  182. [15:53] * Logic_Gates offers his hoof. "Hold on."
  183. [15:54] * Rime holds his hoof, leaning closer.
  184. [15:55] * Logic_Gates then lets magic go through his entire being and hers. Alright. Now for the fun part, he thought to himself in a smarmy Trottingham accent.
  185. [15:57] <TenMihara|GM> The rest of the party seems to be making decent time, without anything more threatening than a radroach showing up
  186. [15:59] * Logic_Gates 's horn glowed with force. Alright, spell closet to compensate for the distance variable. And then....
  187. [16:03] * Razor is excited enough to go out of the way to stomp a few radroaches in their path!
  188. [16:06] * Rime finds the experience 'tingly'
  189. [16:07] * Logic_Gates only had time to note in the travel time it took for them to arrive that the hard part wasn't even chaining two spells together. It was simply the labor of the act of taking the distance between two points and putting one of them behind him. He wasn't happy about the jump, though. Always made his stomach kick. "Are you okay?"
  190. [16:08] * Rime smirks. Yes, thank you for asking." She gives him a darting-homing-unavoidable peck on the nose before turning aroud to look where they are.
  191. [16:12] * Logic_Gates blinks. Again with the nice gestures! It's almost unnatural! "We're at the stadium place with the weird looking ponies." He said, gesturing for Rime to come with him to go inside or to someone that could help. Either one's good.
  192. [16:13] * Rime nods, following behind and evaporating from sight like a fine mist, except really she's just good at hiding.
  193. [16:26] * Rime keeps a close eye out for danger as she shadows her coltfriend. All hers, forget the cap-assed she-bitch. Slip-snatched ass-reamer will get a cunt-punt to the moon if she touches her Logic again.
  194. [16:31] <TenMihara|GM> Rime and Logic get wierd looks near the entrance for having appeared out of thin air as much as for beingfoals
  195. [16:33] * Logic_Gates has never, ever let weird looks from ponies he didn't know (and sometimes did know) stop him. Haters gonna hate.
  196. [16:34] * Rime thinks if they can keep a visual on her, they can look however they want
  197. [16:52] <TenMihara|GM> Eventually, the rest of the gang arrives just as night is beginning to fall
  198. [16:55] * Logic_Gates looks for someone that looks like they know where things are.
  199. [16:57] * Razor is pretty damn excited! She can't wait for tomorrow!
  200. [17:00] * Green_Field is a little excited himself to watch her fight, "so are we goin to talk to them now or sleep first?"
  201. [17:00] * Harmony yawns, putting her pistol away.
  202. [17:01] * Proverb is actually curled up on Harmony's back, sleeping already.
  203. [17:02] * Razor glances back at Green_Field. "Can't hurt to let them know to get the arena set up! I want my match in first thing!"
  204. [17:04] * Harmony nods. "Then let's talk to them quickly. You will need your rest if you are to fight, Razor."
  205. [17:04] <Green_Field> "Let's get to it then."
  206. [17:05] * Green_Field walks alongside Razor to find someone to talk to.
  207. [17:05] * Rime smiles to herself, mind drifting back to the recent past. Logic_Gates agreeing to the request, taking her commands. Such a quick learner! The gently but firm touch of his magic over her. It was exhilarating. He's really good at braiding!
  208. [17:06] * Razor heads off to look for somepony to talk to about an arena fight.
  209. [17:06] * Harmony follows Razor, careful to not wake Proverb.
  210. [17:06] * Proverb purrs lightly.
  211. [17:10] * Logic_Gates just kind of untangled her mane. It was kind of like untangling some wires in a terminal for better access to the whole thing. Not what he wanted to spend all this time working on, but nobody here looked like they would help so far. "Hey. If you find a bug looking pony, let me know, alright Rime?"
  212. [17:11] * Logic_Gates looks her over. "I like your mane straight, too, anyway. I don"
  213. [17:11] <Logic_Gates> 't know why ponies like to braid them."
  214. [17:12] * Rime ties off the end, then slips a thin metal cigar into the bottom of her mane. She adds another tie above to hold it inside, concealed.
  215. [17:13] * Rime gives her head a flick, making sure the length is right to catch it in her mouth. Satisfied, she gives him a nod. "Sure."
  216. [17:14] * Logic_Gates smiles, and then sits next to a wall. Best have your back to the wall so nopony can stab it in a place you don't trust. He doesn't know a lot, but the crusaders taught him that.
  217. [17:15] * Rime sits down next to him, flanks just barely touching.
  218. [17:23] <TenMihara|GM> The two foals are at the main entrance, and easily spotted by the rest of the party on their arrival. There's a couple guards milling about as well
  219. [17:28] * Logic_Gates looks at one of the guards. Must've been a new arrival. "Hey. I'm looking for a big bug lookin' pony. He's around here. I'm on Collegiate business."
  220. [17:29] * Rime has a ponytail poking out from under her slouch hat now!
  221. [17:36] <TenMihara|GM> The ticket booth is presently closed, but the gambling booth is open
  222. [17:36] * Rime stays close to Logic as he talks to the guard. She decides to forgo trying to remain stealthy.
  223. [17:36] <TenMihara|GM> The guard snorts and ignores the colt.
  224. [17:38] * Razor heads over to the gambling booth. "Hey! Who do I gotta talk to around here to set up a match!?"
  225. [17:39] * Rime glares at the guard. "Hey! My coltfriend has a question!"
  226. [17:40] <TenMihara|GM> The guard further ignores Rime, "Beat it kids,"
  227. [17:40] <TenMihara|GM> The pony in the betting house looks up, "A match? Big Daddy is the one who decides who fights who."
  228. [17:42] * Razor eyes the pony. "Well I want to issue a challenge!"
  229. [17:43] <TenMihara|GM> The pony blinks, "Wait, like a challenge challenge? As in, for a place on the Reapers?" He looks intrigued now. "Wait, I rememeber you. You won the amateur competition some weeks back."
  230. [17:43] * Logic_Gates stares at the guard and points at Razor. "She's my friend."
  231. [17:44] * Razor grins and nods. "That's right! I want. To issue. A challenge!"
  232. [17:47] <TenMihara|GM> The pony nods, "Alright, hold on a sec. You kinda caught me last minute here, I was abotu to close up until tomorrow. I'll go get someone." he trots off in a bit of a hurry, looking like he didn't want to press his luck with a potential reaper further. He was just a hired help is all
  233. [17:48] * Logic_Gates rolls his eyes, then goes up to where Razor is. "The guards are exceptionally well trained."
  234. [17:49] * Rime gives the guard a parting glare and follows behind Logic to where the others are.
  235. [17:50] <TenMihara|GM> The betting station pony comes back around a few minutes later with Switchpost and X
  236. [17:51] <TenMihara|GM> X looks at Razor and no one else. Switchpost greets the group with a smile, "Hey again. We keep running into you foklks, huh? So, this guy tells us Razor is finally shooting for us." He looks her over, "Think you're really ready to join the reapers?"
  237. [17:53] <TenMihara|GM> Only X's eyes are visible through the concealing helmet of his custom metal armour, the rest of his muzzle and body well covered.
  238. [17:54] * Razor glances back to the others, then back over to the two reapers. She clacks her tramplers against the ground, and shouts in response, "I've been ready since I was born!"
  239. [17:55] <TenMihara|GM> X seems to smile, and Switchpost definitely does, "That's the attitude we like to see. You know the rules for an official challenge?"
  240. [17:57] * Razor gives a slow nod. "Once we're in, only one comes out."
  241. [17:57] * Logic_Gates looks at Switchpost, who looks the most amenable. "Hey, I'm looking for the bug-looking dude on Collegiate business. I have to ask him some questions,"
  242. [18:01] <TenMihara|GM> Switchpost nods, "Yup. And you only go in wearing your own armour. No weapons, no chems, no nothin'. If you wanna win, you gotta get lockbox keys from the audience. We can put your own weapons in one if you want, but if you die, we keep 'em."
  243. [18:01] <TenMihara|GM> Switchpost glances to Logic, "Feelers? He's gonna be back tomorrow."
  244. [18:03] * Logic_Gates nods. "We ran into a big thing. I think he can help."
  245. [18:05] * Razor glances back to the others, then nods. "Yeah... I'll want 'em in. For sure."
  246. [18:07] <TenMihara|GM> Switchpost shrugs, "Like I said, you can talk to him tomorrow. He's in one of the exhibition matches." He then looks at the schedule posted on the side of the betting booth. "Alright... I think we can short Feelers and Bellows match... push this back half an hour... yeah, that should work. We always try to make time for proper challenge matches by the following day."
  247. [18:08] * Logic_Gates nods. "Thank you. You've been a lot more helpful than the security guard over there."
  248. [18:10] <TenMihara|GM> X gives a quick glare to the unhelpful guard who jsut saunters off
  249. [18:10] <TenMihara|GM> Switchpost shrugs, "Well, they ain't reapers, so they don't know how we really do things. They just get paid to look like they know what they're doing. We can't have all hundred reapers here all the time, so we gotta have some backups for guard duty."
  250. [18:11] <TenMihara|GM> Switchpost chuckles, "Of course, a half-dozen reapers is more than enough to deal with just about anything."
  251. [18:12] * Razor clacks her hooves again. "So tomorrow. When? I want to be ready!"
  252. [18:13] * Logic_Gates nods gratefully. "I'm just happy somebody will know something about 'this one'."
  253. [18:15] <TenMihara|GM> Switchpost nods, "I suggest sleeping to get ready. You'll be at 1pm, after the staff's lunch break."
  254. [18:16] <TenMihara|GM> Daisy is intimidated by... well, everyone, and sticks close to Green_Field
  255. [18:16] * Logic_Gates nods, then finds a nice wall to lay down by.
  256. [18:17] <TenMihara|GM> Switchpost waves a hoof, "We can lend ya a couple tents if you need."
  257. [18:17] * Proverb murrs, shifting on Harmony's back.
  258. [18:18] <Green_Field> "We would greatly appreciate tents. Thank you."
  259. [18:19] <TenMihara|GM> Switchpost gets someone else to do the legwork because he's important. The gambling booth pony goes ahead and gets a trio of tents for the party.
  260. [18:20] * Razor watches the gambling booth pony head off, and asks, "So... do I get to know who I'm fighting?"
  261. [18:21] <TenMihara|GM> Switchpost shakes his head, "We'll tell ya before the fight, but we need to figure out who's a good matchup first."
  262. [18:24] * Razor grins. She feels confident!
  263. [18:25] * Green_Field takes a tent and says to Daisy, "let's get this set up and get to bed."
  264. [18:26] <TenMihara|GM> Switchpost nods, "Good luck kiddo." X stares at Razor a moment longer, then winks at her, before joining switchpost in retiring
  265. [18:27] <TenMihara|GM> Daisy nods and tries to help, although the lack of a tongue makes her mouth decidedly less dexterous.
  266. [18:27] * Rime sticks close to Razor now. Dangerous places are where you stick with the most dangerous fri... acquaintance
  267. [18:27] * Harmony nuzzles Proverb, nudging her. "Too tired for some birthday fun?"
  268. [18:28] * Proverb stirrs, grinning. "Of course not~"
  269. [18:29] * Razor watches Switchpost and X leave before she goes to set up her own tent. This is it. Tomorrow's the day. Once she gets it set up, she downs a quick meal and heads into the tent to get some sleep!
  270. [18:30] * Rime shadows her, slipping into her tent as well.
  271. [18:32] * Green_Field after setting up the tent (mostly himself not that he minds), gets his bed roll out for Daisy and himself and lays down with her for sleep.
  272. [18:33] * Harmony smiles. "You don't have a tent, do you? I do not."
  273. [18:34] <TenMihara|GM> Daisy yawns and snuggles up next to Green_Field. It was safe enough by his side at least.
  274. [18:34] * Proverb giggles, nodding and getting one of the tents set up!
  275. [18:35] * Harmony helps set up the tent before heading inside, shaking her flank in Proverb's direction.
  276. [18:36] * Razor blinks and eyes Rime as she slips into the tent. "Just don't keep me awake, I need to sleep."
  277. [18:36] * Proverb grins and follows Harmony inside~
  278. [18:37] * Rime stares at Razor like she's trying to solve a puzzle. All that uncomfortable armor... She eventually trots over an curls up against her stomach, head on her haunche. "G'Night, Miss Razor."
  279. [18:38] * Razor grumbles a bit and tries to get some sleep.
  280. [18:40] <TenMihara|GM> With the expception of Proverb's 'Birthday fun', the night passes uneventfully. At around dawn (9 hours later), they are awoke by a pair of guards. "Alright, you guys gotta move these tents for the line to form. Whichever one of you was competing, their waiting for you in locker room 7B."
  281. [18:44] * Razor gets up and steps out of the tent upon being woken up, nudging Rime aside roughly. She doesn't have time for fillies right now, it's arena time!
  282. [18:44] * Green_Field groggily get's up and bids Daisy to do the same. When she does he starts taking the tent down.
  283. [18:45] * Rime tumbles away! "Wha..." She gets groggily to her hooves.
  284. [18:45] <TenMihara|GM> Daisy yawns when she wakes up, but, considering how little help she was getting the tent up, she elects to just start on breakfast.
  285. [18:46] * Logic shambles awake silently.
  286. [18:47] * Harmony yawns, quickly brushing her mane into order after last nights... 'fun'. She nudges Proverb after, starting to pack up her things.
  287. [18:47] * Proverb stumbles out of her tent, mane messy as she yawns.
  288. [18:48] * Rime trundles outside and waits for Logic to take down the tent. That's what her brain-strong coltfriend is for, after all.
  289. [18:49] <TenMihara|GM> By the time the group finishes packing up, ponies begin to arrive for the day's matches. Some of them line up as spectators, but most of them head towards the gambling booth.
  290. [18:49] * Razor stretches her legs a bit. She can hardly believe that the day is finally here! She thinks a few moments about what she might need before the match. She snacks on something quick, and heads over to Green_Field. "Before I go, you need to make sure I'm ready to fight!"
  291. [18:50] * Harmony clears her throat. "Proverb, maybe we should place a wager favoring Razor with your remaining caps?"
  292. [18:50] * Rime looks at her in her armor... "Razor? Are you going to be able to wear your greaves since the spikey things are built in to them?"
  293. [18:51] * Proverb hmms, and nods. "S-Sure!"
  294. [18:54] * Logic does not know how to tent. He does, however, let the nice stallion up at the counter know that they were done with the tent and that he could use some help.
  295. [18:55] * Harmony smiles, motioning for Proverb to follow her to the betting window!
  296. [18:56] * Proverb trots after Harmony.
  297. [19:00] * Razor glances at Rime, then at her hooves, frowning. "I don't... know? No weapons so... I guess not."
  298. [19:02] <TenMihara|GM> The gambling booth hasn't opened just yet, but there's a line of ponies already forming. Proverb ends up at the end of the line behind six other ponies.
  299. [19:02] * Proverb adjusts her eyepatch, fidgeting a little bit.
  300. [19:02] * Harmony waits patiently.
  301. [19:03] <TenMihara|GM> Razor may want to remember that she was told to go to Locker Room 7B
  302. [19:04] * Rime frowns. But doesn't have much more to say. "G'luck."
  303. [19:04] * Razor knows, she's trying to get Green_Field to make sure she's fit to fight before she goes.
  304. [19:06] <TenMihara|GM> Green rolls his eyes, but figures she's in as good of shape as she will be.
  305. [19:06] <TenMihara|GM> [Redact]
  306. [19:06] <TenMihara|GM> Green applies whatever magic is needed to get Razor into peak shape.
  307. [19:09] * Razor gives Green_Field a thankful grin and heads off to the locker room.
  308. [19:10] <TenMihara|GM> Razor finds Switchpost, X and Rampage waiting for her. "Yo kiddo."
  309. [19:10] <TenMihara|GM> There;s also a pony in a pre-war referee shirt.
  310. [19:10] * Rime sticks with Green_Field and Daisy since Razor is on her way. Fixing to follow them into the arena when they line up.
  311. [19:14] * Razor glances between them, giving them a greeting, then asks, "So what do I need to do before the match?"
  312. [19:15] <TenMihara|GM> Rampage smirks, "Aside form praying, you gotta give us your weapons, drugs, potions... basically anything other than your armour."
  313. [19:15] <TenMihara|GM> Switchpost nods, "You'll get them back if you don't die, and we can put your weapons in the cage as well if you want us to."
  314. [19:19] * Logic taps his back leg rapidly. He wasn't going to watch this fight. He had work to do. He watched for Feelers first and foremost.
  315. [19:20] * Razor nods. "Put 'em in." She starts to get rid of all her belongings, setting them aside. She saves the tramplers for last, since she's not entirely sure if she can get them off without tons of trouble.
  316. [19:20] <TenMihara|GM> Daisy sticks close to Green_Field. She was a bit curious about an arena fight, and didn't have any interest in wandering off on hr own even if she wasn't interested
  317. [19:21] <TenMihara|GM> Rampage points to the trampler things, "Those too. You wanna fight with your hooves, it'll have to be bare."
  318. [19:21] <TenMihara|GM> Rampage holds up one of her claw hoofs, "For this kind of match anyways."
  319. [19:23] * Green_Field happy that she is at least willing to watch, get's in line to enter the stadium. He's finally going to get to see her in a real fight, that he can watch anyway, this should be good.
  320. [19:24] * Razor knows! She's fiddling. They're sort-of attached to the armor. It takes a minute or two to get them off. When she does get them off, she gives them up as well.
  321. [19:24] <TenMihara|GM> Eventually, the gambling booth opens and the betters are processed. Proverb and Harmony's turn comes up after another ten minutes or so. A schedule of the matches for that day, including Razor's, was up.
  322. [19:26] * Harmony smiles and asks the broker, "What are the odds on the match today?"
  323. [19:26] <TenMihara|GM> Rampage hands them off to the ref pony along with the machete and sword. "Alright, so, the boxes don't all got weapons in them. Some got chems, some got hazards, if you're lucky one might even have a healing potion. Unless you wanna fight barehoofed, which some do, you're gonna want those keys."
  324. [19:26] <TenMihara|GM> The broker looks down his list, "Which one?"
  325. [19:27] <Harmony> "Razor's match."
  326. [19:28] * Logic attempts to find Switch
  327. [19:29] * Razor nods. "Keys for the boxes to get the good stuff. Got it."
  328. [19:29] <TenMihara|GM> The broker points to it on his list, "Razor vs... Toxicity. That's a pretty blasy matchup, but I guess she impressed folks at the amateur night. Let's see... Odds are 2:1 in favour of Tox."
  329. [19:30] <TenMihara|GM> Rampage smirks, "Keys don't come easy, so give the crowd a good show, eh? Oh, and only non-betting audience members get keys in the first place, so don't be counting on your pals."
  330. [19:30] * Harmony nods. "Proverb, go ahead and bet whatever amount you think is due."
  331. [19:33] * Razor nods. "Make it look good. Not a problem!"
  332. [19:33] * Proverb nods. "Uhm, we'll bet 400 on Razor."
  333. [19:33] <TenMihara|GM> The broker nods and takes the 400 caps, slipping them a reciept for the bet.
  334. [19:35] * Harmony thinks for a moment. "Proverb, can I have about... 800 caps?" She smiles. "I think we should bet more."
  335. [19:35] <TenMihara|GM> X just continues to stare at Razor, then nods to her.
  336. [19:35] * Logic really hopes that he meets Feelers before going on a bridge burning campaign.
  337. [19:36] * Proverb nods a bit. "Y-Yeah, here." She hoofs Harmony the 800.
  338. [19:36] <TenMihara|GM> Feelers could be anywhere, anyone!
  339. [19:36] <TenMihara|GM> Logic is kept out of anywhere aside form the spectator's queue by the guards.
  340. [19:37] * Harmony places up an additional 800 cap bet on Razor!
  341. [19:38] <TenMihara|GM> Harmony gets another receipt
  342. [19:40] * Harmony looks around for the better's seating area entrance.
  343. [19:40] * Logic grimaces. "Hey. Guard. I need to talk to Feelers before the games begin. Please get him." He mentions to not-the-last guard.
  344. [19:41] <TenMihara|GM> After their bet is placed, Harmony and Proverb are shunted over to the lineup to join the rest of the group. The line splits between betters and spectators just before it goes inside the stadium
  345. [19:41] <TenMihara|GM> The guard frowns at Logic, "Feelers is in the first exhibition match and ain't got time for pesky brats."
  346. [19:47] * Logic sighed through his teeth. Guess he's going on a bridge burning campaign after all. "Thank you for your time, the collegiate appreciates your contribution." He goes off, trying to find Rime.
  347. [19:48] * Rime is waiting for wth Green_Field and Daisy to get in.
  348. [19:51] <TenMihara|GM> The line eventually begins moving properly and the group files into the betters portion of the stadium. Meanwhile, Razor has a seat right on the edge looking out from the locker room, she can see Feelers and his opponent taking their positions.
  349. [19:51] * Harmony takes a seat, motioning for Proverb to take a seat next to her.
  350. [19:52] * Proverb sits down next to Harmony, murring.
  351. [19:52] * Razor is watching with interest.
  352. [19:52] * Logic makes his way to Rime ASAP.
  353. [19:53] * Green_Field heads on in, doing a head count before he does.
  354. [19:54] <TenMihara|GM> Feelers combat style is certainly interesting to watch. He shifts flluently between the three races of pony, using the flight of a pegasus for evasion, a magical blast for offense in unicorn form, and the sturdiness of an Earth Pony to weather blows. Sometimes he shifts between them so quickly as to become a blur.
  355. [19:55] <TenMihara|GM> Eventually, the constant, rapid shift in tactics brings about errors from hsi opponent, who slips up, leaving herself open for Feeler's signature, natural form dive bomb attack. The crowd roars in approval at the explosive force of the impact.
  356. [19:57] <TenMihara|GM> All the members of the party plus Daisy have decent seats in close proximity to each other in order to watch the match below.
  357. [20:01] <TenMihara|GM> Daisy seems wary of Feelers, and leans in close to Green_Field during the fight.
  358. [20:01] * Rime keeps an eye on the ponies in front of them.
  359. [20:03] <TenMihara|GM> no one in the betting section has a key
  360. [20:04] * Rime looks around to see what section she is in. She didn't bet anything, but she supposes there might be some divider keeping spectators from mingling with gangers.
  361. [20:04] * Green_Field is enjoying the fight quite a bit, but he puts a hoof around Daisy when he notices her discomfert and gives her a reassuring smile.
  362. [20:05] * Harmony blinks at Feeler's ferocity in the fight. She hopes Razor's opponent isn't that tough.
  363. [20:05] <TenMihara|GM> After Feelers' match, the changeling leaves the field while the fight doctor drags his opponent to the first aid area of the arena. Lunch ensues, with food vendors going around the crowd. At the same time, the cage is brough out and suspended above the arena, with a few guards milling through the non-gambling spectators to distribute the keys for the fight. There are twenty given out in all. (The party is all together in the gambling section.)
  364. [20:22] <TenMihara|GM> Eventually, after lunch is taken and everyone who wants to has bought food, Razor is called out into the arena by the Referee. "You're fighting Toxicity, Seed number Forty-Seven."
  365. [20:23] * Razor nods. "Number 47, huh...?"
  366. [20:25] <TenMihara|GM> The ref nods, "Yup. She's popular with filly-foolers in general, and audience members from the Powder Packers as well."
  367. [20:26] * Rime tries to get a good look at this Toxicity whore.
  368. [20:26] <TenMihara|GM> Rime can spot someone who had a couple drinks with his lunch, and looks inattentive, if noisy.
  369. [20:27] * Rime makes a mental note to slink over there and liberate him of his ticket when the action starts and all eyes are on the fight itself.
  370. [20:27] * Proverb leans against Harmony a bit, settling in to watch the fight.
  371. [20:29] * Razor does a bit of a stretch while she waits for the match to start!
  372. [20:30] <TenMihara|GM> On the other side of the Arena, a Green coated, purple mane mare trots into the arena to lots of applause, and a particularly loud set of catcalls from one section of the audience. She's a lithe, agile looking unicorn mare wearing the signature ponyhide of the Reapers.
  373. [20:31] <TenMihara|GM> She blows a few kisses and one mare in the front row swoons. She smirks and trots into the her side of the arena. "Hey ya'll. Hope you're ready to watch me make short work of this little clown who thinks she's got what it takes to be a reaper." There's a round of cheers.
  374. [20:32] * Green_Field keeps his hoof around Daisy as he watches. He's excited to see this fight.
  375. [20:33] * Rime yells. "Hack off her Snatch-Chomping, Marecum-Guzzling, Bag-O-Dick-Faced, Dong-Denying Head! Yay, Razor!"
  376. [20:34] * Razor eyes the unicorn as she enters the arena. So this is 'Toxicity', huh?
  377. [20:35] * Harmony keeps her eyes on the combatants, hoping Razor would be able to pull it off.
  378. [20:36] * Rime "Pound her like her Daddy use to! Drag her around the arena by those floppy, dangling steaks between her legs, the stretched-out, dry-cunted, horn-choker!"
  379. [20:37] <TenMihara|GM> As Razor steps out, she gets a modest amount of applause and cheers as well, but she'd have to do better than that if she wanted to win this fight.
  380. [20:37] <TenMihara|GM> Rime gets a bunch of wierd looks from those around her
  381. [20:38] * Proverb cheers for Razor!
  382. [20:46] * Rime "Give her a hoof chaser for the mare-piss she guzzled at lunch! Razor's the best! Woo!" She bounces up and down in her seat as she cheers wildly.
  383. [20:46] <TenMihara|GM> The ref pony gives a signal and the cage is lowered over the two combatants. There;s the sound of microphone feedback followed by the booming anouncment of Switchpost's vocie. "Good afternoon Fillies and Gentlecolts. It's been a while since we had a right proper challenge, hasn't it?" More cheering
  384. [20:50] * Razor scratches a hoof against the ground in anticipation.
  385. [20:51] <TenMihara|GM> Switchpost continues, "In one corner, we have our challenger. The champion of Amateur Night, the vicious, the implacable, the ferocious... Razor!"
  386. [20:51] <TenMihara|GM> Razor gets a round of cheers and applause, amped up by the anouncer's charisma
  387. [20:51] <Proverb> "Yay Razor!"
  388. [20:52] * Razor looks around the crowd when her name is called, and strikes a menacing pose!
  389. [20:52] <TenMihara|GM> "And opposite Razor we have the Poison Kiss, the Mistress of Mares, and defending Reaper today. Give it up for... Toxicity!"
  390. [20:53] * Harmony smiles, though is quiet.
  391. [20:53] <TenMihara|GM> Toxicity gets more cheering that Razor, for now at least.
  392. [20:54] <TenMihara|GM> Toxicity blows another kiss towards the audience and winks at the mare in the front row, who swoons again.
  393. [20:55] <TenMihara|GM> Toxicity steps forward and announces, "Well, it's a pity I gotta take you down, otherwise I might take you -down-." Some catcalls ensue
  394. [20:56] <TenMihara|GM> Toxicity blows a kiss for Razor, and then limbers herself up, waiting for the whistle to announce the start of the proper match.
  395. [20:57] * Harmony can't help but chuckle at Toxicity's flirting with Razor.
  396. [20:57] * Proverb giggles a bit too.
  397. [20:58] * Green_Field looks on indifferent to the flirting and the cheers.
  398. [20:58] * Razor glares at Toxicity, scrunching her nose. She calls back, "Like you'd be up for THAT challenge!"
  399. [20:59] <TenMihara|GM> There's a round of 'Ooooooooohs' from the Crowd.
  400. [20:59] <TenMihara|GM> Switchpost chuckles, "Ooh, that's gotta sting. Toxicity has never been shot down by a mare before."
  401. [21:00] * Harmony might not appreciate Proverb switching around so fast.
  402. [21:02] <TenMihara|GM> A whistle blows, signalling the start of the match.
  403. [21:03] <TenMihara|GM> Toxicity quickly lights up her horn, and suddenly there are two more of her. Each of the three then runs to the edge of the cage, looking to get the first key.
  404. [21:04] * Rime "Did you learn that trick so you could FUCK YOURSELF! DO IT!"
  405. [21:05] * Rime works her tongue around in her mouth... "Wish I were louder..."
  406. [21:12] * Razor is about to go right for her when the whistle blows... but she stops when she sees Toxicity's magic. She stomps a hoof. "Oh, you just HAD to be one of those!" She hates it when opponents don't fight straight-up. "Well have it your way..." She casts her own spell, reinforcing her armor, eyeing each of the duplicates. After a moment, she picks one, the one that was on the right, and starts to head toward it.
  407. [21:14] * Rime hops back up. "Ponies only like you cause you're as loose as the shit you gargled for lunch! Razor's going to carve you a pretty new ass for these fucktards to kiss!"
  408. [21:15] <TenMihara|GM> Switchpost calls over the crowd, "Tox's signature opening seems to have confused Razor for a moment, but it looks like she's just gonna go for it anyways! Although, as we all know, playing the Shell Game with Toxicity is a hard game to win."
  409. [21:16] <TenMihara|GM> Razor's brash, headstrong approach seems to be appreciated by one of the spectators, as a Key is tossed at her hooves.
  410. [21:18] <TenMihara|GM> Toxicity, seemingly displeased at the lack of support, has all three copies of her turn their flanks towards the audience, "Surely none of you want a mare this nice to be beaten by such an awful brute, don't you?"
  411. [21:19] <TenMihara|GM> That same mare swoons again.
  412. [21:19] * Rime Screams with all her strength. "Blech! I think I can see the RADCRABS from UP HERE!"
  413. [21:20] <TenMihara|GM> One of the audience members responds to the flank show off and tosses her a key, which she grabs in her telekinesis, which notably is glowing around all three horns at once, and shoves it in the nearest box.
  414. [21:22] <TenMihara|GM> The box pops open, and a wad of foul-smelling gunk is ejected, landing on the mare. Who is prompty revealed to be a duplicate as the ooze passes through her and spreads over the floor of the arena.
  415. [21:23] * Razor grabs her key in her telekinesis, and is about to make her own comment -- but holds it back when she sees the second key get thrown. She grins when she sees the duplicate get oozed. "Tough luck, fillyfooler!"
  416. [21:24] <TenMihara|GM> Whichever of the remaining two is the real Toxicity lets the oozed image fade, it's purpose served.
  417. [21:25] <TenMihara|GM> The remaining pair of Toxicities spread themselves out as far as possible to keep Razor at bay.
  418. [21:26] * Razor could care less about Toxicity's games right now, she has a box to open! She heads for the closest one and, standing a bit to the side after seeing the contents of her opponent's box, she opens it!
  419. [21:27] <TenMihara|GM> A bottle of buck falls out.
  420. [21:29] * Razor grins. It's not even her birthday! She doesn't hesitate to take some.
  421. [21:29] <TenMihara|GM> Switchpost calls out, "Oh hoho, looks like our challenger is a lucky little mare. For a brawler like her, that Buck can only be good news."
  422. [21:29] <TenMihara|GM> The bottle only has one dose inside, but it'd be enough to last the fight
  423. [21:31] * Razor throws the empty bottle at one of the Toxicitys once she's done with it!
  424. [21:36] <TenMihara|GM> The bottle passes through the not-Toxicity
  425. [21:37] * Razor grins and eyes the last one, taking a few steps toward her.
  426. [21:37] <TenMihara|GM> Toxicity dismissed the last image, looking displeased. "Luck isn't going to save you once I get my gun."
  427. [21:40] * Rime settles back into her chair carefully scanning the audience and seeing how rapt their attention is. When Razor goes in to cunt-punt the bitch's lips out through her other lips, she'll make her move on that drunkards ticket.
  428. [21:40] * Razor is still grinning. "Maybe if you ask nicely, I'll tell them to give you a free one!"
  429. [21:41] <TenMihara|GM> Toxicity laughs, "I don't need freebies, I work to make my mares squeal."
  430. [21:42] <TenMihara|GM> Toxicity moves along the outer edge of the cage, trying to find a lucky box and a key to go with it.
  431. [21:43] <TenMihara|GM> Apparently, Tox moved towards the wrong end of the crowd, or otherwise needs to step up her game, as she doesn't get another key yet.
  432. [21:48] <TenMihara|GM> The audience is fixated o the fight
  433. [21:48] * Harmony lets out a cheer for Razor, seeing as Toxicity is having no luck!
  434. [21:49] * Razor keeps going for her. "Time to show me what you're made of!" She goes right in close, and lashes out to trip her!
  435. [21:53] <TenMihara|GM> The nimble Toxicity rolls out of the way of Razor's lunge, "You're too bulky, bitch. I never was fond of fatasses."
  436. [21:53] <TenMihara|GM> Another round of 'Ooooooooohs'
  437. [21:55] * Razor scowls, and wheels around to buck the sassy bitch.
  438. [21:56] <TenMihara|GM> Once again, Toxicity proves too nimble for Razor's brawling. She smirks malevolently. "Looking for a good buck eh? Should have thought of that before you challenged me, and maybe I would have let you have one."
  439. [21:58] * Razor snorts. "You sure you're a Reaper? You sound like you got lost on the way to Flank!"
  440. [21:59] <TenMihara|GM> Switchpost laughs into the mike, "We got a real catfight going on down there. Let's see who the crowd favours..."
  441. [21:59] * Rime slips away like a ghost as the action kicks up and blows are... attempted. Easy pickin's.
  442. [22:00] <TenMihara|GM> Apparently the crowd favours Toxicity still, if only just barely. A key is tossed her way, caught inthe mare's teeth mid-roll.
  443. [22:00] <TenMihara|GM> Toxicity scrambles to the nearest box and slams the key in.
  444. [22:01] <TenMihara|GM> Toxicity has some luck this time, as pistol tumbles out of the box. She levitates it up and fires a quick shot before preparing herself to avoid the mare some more.
  445. [22:06] <TenMihara|GM> Razor takes a shot to one of her forelegs. Abotu half the crowd cheers for this, while the other half doesn't seem to appreciate it.
  446. [22:10] * Razor winces at the shot, muttering a loud "Fuck!" She adds in a "Oh, now you're gonna pay for that!" She goes right back in close range, this time abandoning the fancy tricks. Hit her hard and fast!
  447. [22:13] <TenMihara|GM> Razor's ferocity is unquestionable, but her bare hooves just aren't cutting it against that ponyhide armour. Toxicity smirks as she dodges two of the blows anyways, "You're out of your league."
  448. [22:14] <TenMihara|GM> Razor's ferocity apparently isn't enough to net her another key if she wasn't doing any real damage.
  449. [22:16] * Razor gives Toxicity a glare. "I'm just getting warmed up!"
  450. [22:19] * Rime is back in her seat. "Come on, Razor! Give that cross-eyed, hornfucker a hoof-chaser to the marepiss she chugged before coming out here!"
  451. [22:19] <TenMihara|GM> Toxicity smirks, "Not hot enough for me. Sorry bitch." She levels her gun at Razor and fires five shots. If she could put the mare down, she didn't need to get out of her way.
  452. [22:23] <TenMihara|GM> Rime's Pickpocketing yields a bottle of Buckweiser, a ticket with a 150 cap bet on Razor, and 30 loose bottle caps.
  453. [22:24] <TenMihara|GM> Razor is shot repeatedly, but without a direct blow to the head or anything vital getting hit, Razor is still sitting pretty. The crowd lets out a series of impressed noises; Razor was insanely tough
  454. [22:25] <TenMihara|GM> Toxicity curses; she only had one shot left. She would make it count next time
  455. [22:28] * Razor grunts in pain with each shot, but she takes it like a champ. Almost immediately after the last round hits her, she spins around goes for a buck right to the face.
  456. [22:32] <TenMihara|GM> Razor's buck manages to smack Toxicity right in her smug bitch faced, knocking her back a fair distance up against the cage. A round of cheers is let out for the implacable mare.
  457. [22:32] <TenMihara|GM> She gets a fresh key tossed her way.
  458. [22:32] <Proverb> "Yay Razor! Kick her in the teeth! Yeah!"
  459. [22:33] * Rime "WHOOO! She /fights/ better and she /bucks better! Back to the whorehouse, Skank!"
  460. [22:35] * Razor is torn. Go for her while she's down, or go for a box... She'd better go for a box. Grabbing the key, she dashes over to open the nearest box.
  461. [22:35] <TenMihara|GM> A small knife tumbles out
  462. [22:37] * Razor grabs it in her teeth and turns back toward Toxicity.
  463. [22:41] * Rime "Yeah! Chop up her pounded meatflaps! Fillet of whore!"
  464. [22:41] <TenMihara|GM> Toxicity glares at Razor and levels the gun at her. She needed one good shot...
  465. [22:46] <TenMihara|GM> She gets off a really good shot, but it's not enough to stop Razor, who's face may be bloodied up pretty bad, but she's not out.
  466. [22:48] * Rime starts chanting in a loud, sing-song voice. "Gives no FUCKS! Gives no FUCKS! Gives no FUCKS!"
  467. [22:50] <TenMihara|GM> Razor has a lot of her own blood on her face, but the bullet didn't cut deep enough to do any real harm. I mean, it was only her head.
  468. [22:50] <TenMihara|GM> Switchpost yells over the microphone, "By the Goddesses, this mare is insane! Although, I suppose that Buck helped her work through that kind of punishment. Still, to take a shot like that to the face like it was nothing... dayumn."
  469. [22:51] * Razor may not be out, but she's definitely hurting. She cries out in pain at the shot, and calls out, "Is that..." She spits blood at the ground. "Is that the best you've got!?"
  470. [22:53] * Razor of course only sounds muffled around the knife.
  471. [22:54] <TenMihara|GM> Toxicity tosses the gun aside. "I'm still in way better shape than you cunt. All I need is one more gun and you're toast."
  472. [22:57] * Razor doesn't even bother with a witty retort. She's out for blood. She rushes in to slice the cocky mare to pieces!
  473. [23:01] <TenMihara|GM> Toxicity's ponyhide armour stands up well against the knife, but with Razor on top of her, Toxicity has very little room to maneuver
  474. [23:09] * Razor isn't about to let her run free anytime soon!
  475. [23:11] <TenMihara|GM> Toxicity's lack of further flirting and lack of taking a hit seems to be hurting her popularity.
  476. [23:11] <TenMihara|GM> She doesn't get another key, and attempts to get away from Razor instead
  477. [23:13] <TenMihara|GM> Razor's advantageous position allows her to stab at Toxicity before she can wriggle away.
  478. [23:14] * Rime "Bitch on bottom! Spread eagle and penetrated, nothing new there!"
  479. [23:15] * Razor tries to trip her up, and stop her from getting away!
  480. [23:17] <TenMihara|GM> Toxicity almost manages to get away, but Razor overpowers her quite completely.
  481. [23:23] <TenMihara|GM> Toxicity struggles to stand up, and attempts to get to another box
  482. [23:23] <TenMihara|GM> Toxicity's horn flares up, and a wall of fire bursts into existance, separating her form Razor
  483. [23:27] * Razor takes a few steps back, glaring. Well then, if you're gonna play hardball... She casts her own spell on the knife, to poison it, and throws it at Toxicity!
  484. [23:30] <TenMihara|GM> Toxicity screams as the poisoned knife slashes at her flank. "You bitch." She feels the sting of the envenomed blade, "Where the hell did you... fucking cunt!"
  485. [23:31] <TenMihara|GM> Toxicity is losing face quickly, and is still lacking an extra key. She tries to put as much distance between Razor and herself as possible, trying to keep herself limber
  486. [23:35] * Rime "No place to ru~n, you inbred, ass-faced, flea-bit, mange licking, dim-witted, shit-suckling, rot-crotched, walking fuck-dumpster!"
  487. [23:39] <TenMihara|GM> Rime seems to have cleared out the seats surrounding hers aside from Logic_Gates and the rest of the party
  488. [23:39] * Green_Field can't help but chuckle, impressed by her ability to do so.
  489. [23:39] * Rime thinks, /legroom, bitches!/
  490. [23:43] * Logic_Gates looks around. Huh. People are giving Rime and himself a wide berth. About time. He gives the filly a darting peck on the lips before relaxing. This was going to be over soon.
  491. [23:44] * Razor eyes Toxicity across the fire wall... glancing around to see if she can see where the knife flew off to, but with no luck. She gives a grin. "How's it feel to be on the run, you little cunt?"
  492. [23:49] * Rime stops her mad hopping and sits, sharing Logic_Gates' seat. She leans heavily on him, one foreleg draped over his withers. The other foreleg raised and waving wildly. "Take her down, Razor!"
  493. [23:50] <TenMihara|GM> Toxicity smirks, "You seem to be afraid of a little fire yourself. Not gonna come and get me?" She calls out to the audience, "I could use a key folks, so I can at least come before she does."
  494. [23:51] * Rime "You beg for orgasms like that too, ya pig-faces jizz-vacuum?!"
  495. [23:54] <TenMihara|GM> The mare who kept fainting tosses Toxicity a key that apparently she had been saving for an emergency.
  496. [23:55] <TenMihara|GM> Razor doesn't get a new one though
  497. [23:57] <TenMihara|GM> Toxicity looks grateful and runs to the nearest box
  498. [23:58] <TenMihara|GM> The box yields an inhaler
  499. [23:59] <TenMihara|GM> Toxicty sighs and slips the inhaler into a pocket.
  500. [00:00] <TenMihara|GM> Toxicity again attempts to maintain her distance from Razor, conjuring another wall of fire
  501. [00:02] * Razor scratches at the ground with her hoof. "Ha! You didn't hear how I won ameteur night, did ya? I'll give you a hint." She takes a few confident steps forward. "I. Was. On. FIRE!" She jumps right across the fire wall, still looking for that knife...!
  502. [00:05] <TenMihara|GM> Razor still can't find her knife
  503. [00:08] <TenMihara|GM> Toxicity glowers as Razor jumps through the fire, which doesn't stick to her because it's an illusion, but is would certainly feel real
  504. [00:08] * Razor grits her teeth, and mutters something nasty under her breath, deciding to just go for it. She charges right for Toxicity, attempting to tackle her to the ground.
  505. [00:11] <TenMihara|GM> Toxicity sneers as Razor plows into the ground when she attempts to tackle her.
  506. [00:15] * Razor will not be deterred! She gets right back to her hooves, and goes for a kick to the mare's smug little face!
  507. [00:15] <TenMihara|GM> Razor fails.
  508. [00:17] <TenMihara|GM> Toxicity's nimbleness seems to be saving her, but Razor has a clear advantage unless she can find another gun. She has no keys and can only attempt to duck and dodge at the moment
  509. [00:20] <TenMihara|GM> Toxicity's desperation seems to be drawing some attention from her filly-fans, who toss her one more key.
  510. [00:26] * Razor eyes the key, grinning. She takes a few steps toward Toxicity, her horn flaring as she attempts to sieze the key from her with her telekinesis! And even as she tries to take it away, she keeps closing in.
  511. [00:31] <TenMihara|GM> Razor nabs the Key, to a mix of cheers and outrage.
  512. [00:32] * Razor bolts for the nearest box as soon as she breaks Toxicity's grip. "You won't be needing this!"
  513. [00:33] <TenMihara|GM> Toxicity screams bloody murder at Razor
  514. [00:33] <TenMihara|GM> Razor strikes it lucky, out of the box falls her brand spanking new lightning sword.
  515. [00:35] <Proverb> "YAY RAZOR!"
  516. [00:36] <TenMihara|GM> Toxicity spies the sword and gulps
  517. [00:36] * Razor grabs it in her teeth and turns back on Toxicity. She has a look of pure, murderous glee all over her face. She closes in.
  518. [00:36] * Rime starts singing "We're in the money! We're in the money~!"
  519. [00:39] * Green_Field still with his hoof around Daisy, pulls her closer, "you might want to turn away for this part."
  520. [00:40] <TenMihara|GM> Daisy gulps and shuts her eyes
  521. [00:42] <TenMihara|GM> Switchpost roars over the crowd, "What an upset! Razor has procured her favoured weapon. not only that, but Toxicity has already used hers and is down a key. Looks like this might be the end for the Poison Kiss."
  522. [00:42] <TenMihara|GM> Toxicity makes a desperate plea for help.
  523. [00:43] <TenMihara|GM> it goes unanswered, the audience seemingly having swung in favour of the vicious, bloodthirsty newcomer
  524. [00:44] <TenMihara|GM> Toxicity sighs and closes her eyes. She floats out the dash inhaler and breathes it in. Her pupils go wide and she smiles. "Alright then, come and get me."
  525. [00:47] * Razor is glad to oblige. She runs right up to Toxicity, and goes in for the kill.
  526. [00:52] <TenMihara|GM> Toxicity has a number of great gashes rended out of her, yet she just barely remains standing. The dash seems to have put her off in lala land.
  527. [00:52] <TenMihara|GM> She passes right out
  528. [00:53] <TenMihara|GM> Switchpost yells over the PA, "it looks like its all over folks. Toxicity is down." There's a round of cheering from the crowd, although there's a fair amount of jeering mixed in.
  529. [00:53] * Proverb jumps up and down. "RAZOR! YAY!"
  530. [00:54] <TenMihara|GM> Switchpost calls out to the crowd, "Toxicity's down, but I've just gotten word from the fight Doctor that she's just barely alive. Wadaya think folks, should we pull her out, or let Razor deliver the coup de grace?"
  531. [00:55] <TenMihara|GM> A few mares in the audience cry out in protest, but the general concensus of the audience is that once you go down in this cage, you stay down.
  532. [00:55] * Proverb screams. "DECAPITATE THE WHORE!" She seems very into it.
  533. [00:55] <TenMihara|GM> Daisy keeps her eyes shut
  534. [00:56] * Green_Field chuckles at the idiocy and hypocrasy, "suppression of violence my ass."
  535. [00:56] * Rime is quiet now that its gone from battle to execution. She gets up and hollars. "Let the dumb whore live!"
  536. [01:00] * Razor isn't one to deny the crowd what they want... especially when it's what she wants, too! She takes her sword in her Telekinesis, and rests the blade against the unconscious Toxicity's throat. She yells to the croud, "Two ponies enter... but only one comes out alive!" With a violent flick, she administers the coup de grace.
  537. [01:01] <TenMihara|GM> Toxicity's throat is slit, as is most of her neck
  538. [01:01] <TenMihara|GM> The crowd is uproarious. Swtichpost calls out, "There it is folks, we have ourselves a new Reaper!"
  539. [01:03] <TenMihara|GM> The cage is lifted and the fight doctor comes in to look Razor over. Meanwhile, a couple of rank and file reapers retrieve Toxicity's corpse
  540. [01:04] * Proverb huggles Harmony.
  541. [01:04] * Green_Field chuckles lightly again and shakes his head, "what a fucking joke."
  542. [01:04] * Razor is ecstatic. She's all kinds of shot up, and more than a little worn out, but she's the winner!
  543. [01:04] <TenMihara|GM> Daisy dares to open an eye, and looks to Green for confirmation that it's over.
  544. [01:04] <TenMihara|GM> Razor's buck wears off
  545. [01:06] <TenMihara|GM> The fight doctor forces a healing potion on her and begins bandaging up her torso
  546. [01:06] * Green_Field looks at her, "it's over, at least this fight is."
  547. [01:07] <TenMihara|GM> Daisy nods and looks down to Razor, giving her a wave
  548. [01:07] * Razor isn't gonna resist treatment, even if she feels full of adrenaline.
  549. [01:09] <TenMihara|GM> The Fight Doctor frowns, "Sheesh lady, you're nuts. That shot to the face could have taken another pony's head off."
  550. [01:10] * Rime bounds over to Harmony. She might not have executed the lady, but that doesn't mean it wasn't awesome. Besides, she has a ticket to cash in.
  551. [01:10] * Razor snorts (Ow). "I need this too much to just lie down and die."
  552. [01:13] <TenMihara|GM> The fight doctor shakes his head, "Just go back to the Locker room while I get another potion for you."
  553. [01:13] * Green_Field gets up and starts walking out, he'd seen enough.
  554. [01:13] * Rime tugs and Harmony's leg. "Come on! We need to collect and go see Razor!"
  555. [01:14] * Razor heads off to the locker room, giving a final, parting flourish of her new sword for the crowd.
  556. [01:14] <TenMihara|GM> The crowd cheers. Inside the Locker Room however, Razor is not alone. Someone is there waiting for her. X stares at her from across the room
  557. [01:16] * Rime pulls on Proverb next. "Tickets! Caps! Razor! Come. On!"
  558. [01:17] <TenMihara|GM> X motions for Razor to shut the door
  559. [01:18] * Proverb nods, heading off to the betting window to collect their caps.
  560. [01:18] * Razor gives X a wary look when she sees him waiting for her inside. After a moment's hesitation, she shuts the door.
  561. [01:18] <TenMihara|GM> As soon as the door is shut, X runs up to Razor and... hugs her?
  562. [01:18] <TenMihara|GM> ?!
  563. [01:19] * Razor is highly confused, and tries to pull away. "What are you doing!?"
  564. [01:20] * Rime stays under Harmony as she goes with Proverb to cash out.
  565. [01:20] <TenMihara|GM> X steps back and carefully removes his helmet, revealing that he is actually a she, and she is a yellow coated, red maned unicorn mare that Razor couldn't mistake for anyone else. "Hello again, my little Hellraiser."
