  1. [2015-08-26 13:19:44] <Mare-Do-Well> 3Previously...
  2. [2015-08-26 13:20:23] <Mare-Do-Well> 3CopyCat is approaching a huge, byzantine temple. There are military barricades and skeletons all around the broad staircase that leads up the hill to the structure. Halfway up, a sign proclaims it to be the Temple of the Forsaken Night. The words are in Imperial... yet CopyCat realizes she understands it.
  3. [2015-08-26 13:20:30] <Mare-Do-Well> 3Across the edifice of the temple, someone has spraypainted "WHO ARE WE?" These words are in Equestrian.
  4. [2015-08-26 13:20:41] <Mare-Do-Well> 3CopyCat commends her communications officer, Uhoofra, for translating.
  5. [2015-08-26 13:21:00] <Mare-Do-Well> 3CopyCat tilts her head, studying the words spray painted onto the temple wall. "Who are we?" she wonders aloud.
  6. [2015-08-26 13:21:06] <Mare-Do-Well> 3...
  7. [2015-08-26 13:22:00] <Mare-Do-Well> 3Bookwright finds that the journal he is carrying is a fresh one. The first entry explains that "for safety" he left his previous journal on the /Shadowbolt/.
  8. [2015-08-26 13:22:14] <Mare-Do-Well> 3The next entry is apparently the continuation of a theory from an entry in the previous journal:
  9. [2015-08-26 13:22:22] <Mare-Do-Well> 3..."CopyCat can't read zebra minds. But she communicated with the Faceless. So she might be able to open a line of communication between me and the Spirits of Memory trapped in the smoke. If it works, I could not only learn what happened here, but gain immeasurable knowledge about the past."
  10. [2015-08-26 13:22:32] <Mare-Do-Well> 3..."For the record, if something goes wrong, this was a bad idea."
  11. [2015-08-26 13:22:39] <Mare-Do-Well> 3There are no more entries.
  12. [2015-08-26 13:22:55] <Mare-Do-Well> 3Bookwright looks up from his journal. "Well, that was edifying. Apparently there are entities called 'the Faceless' and Copycat can communicate with them. And this smoke contains spirits of memories, which might be what happened to our own memories. Also, it looks like I did something really dangerous and it backfired... it might be what caused our amnesia."
  13. [2015-08-26 13:23:18] <Mare-Do-Well> 3He jots a quick entry: "Day ???: Apparently... it was a bad idea. Left a message for myself and my friends on a marquee across from the VIGOR station. Reads: 'IF YOU DONT REMEMBER GO TO THE CHURCH YOU WILL FIND'. I had the letter 'A' in my mouth, so obviously there is a clue of some kinds, probably singular in this 'CHURCH'....
  14. [2015-08-26 13:23:38] <Mare-Do-Well> 3...Have met up with Shatara, Golden Dream, and Get Lost inside the VIGOR station. No idea where the others are." He snaps the journal shut and puts it away.
  15. [2015-08-26 13:23:51] <Mare-Do-Well> 3Golden_Dream 's ears flatten out. "... Galdurnit, Bookie."
  16. [2015-08-26 13:23:58] <Mare-Do-Well> 3Bookwright wilts a little. "Well excuuuse me princess. Just trying to learn from the past."
  17. [2015-08-26 13:24:06] <Mare-Do-Well> 3"You did a shitty job of it."
  18. [2015-08-26 13:24:12] <Mare-Do-Well> 3Shatara tries to peek at the journal before he slams it. "You sure...?"
  19. [2015-08-26 13:24:18] <Mare-Do-Well> 3Bookwright wilts further. "I know."
  20. [2015-08-26 13:24:23] <Mare-Do-Well> 3...
  21. [2015-08-26 13:25:13] <Mare-Do-Well> 3Mitzi shrugs, not like the history really mattered too much at this point.
  22. [2015-08-26 13:25:24] <Mare-Do-Well> 3Noble_Heart sighs quietly. "A mystery ontop of a mystery ontop of a mystery. We do not like it."
  23. [2015-08-26 13:25:32] <Mare-Do-Well> 3Mitzi shrugs at Noble_Heart, "Da important ting eez tu find ur friends."
  24. [2015-08-26 13:25:35] <Mare-Do-Well> 3...
  25. [2015-08-26 13:25:57] <Mare-Do-Well> 3Fallout: Beyond Equestria, Session One Hundred and Forty-Eight: Xero Hour (Part Two) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S2aHcANs4GE
  26. [2015-08-26 13:26:03] <Mare-Do-Well> 3--- Session Begins ---
  27. [2015-08-26 13:31:04] * Puppy frowns. with no eyes frowning is half as effective "i think i'm a bit lost at this point..."
  28. [2015-08-26 13:33:28] * Bookwright "I don't mean to belabor the point, but perhaps we should find the church and see what kind of clue I left for myself?"
  29. [2015-08-26 13:34:15] * Mitzi looks up at Noble_Heart, "Where we lukeen fur friends?"
  30. [2015-08-26 13:35:01] * Golden_Dream sighs. "Bookie, let's talk real for a sec. I don't blame you. I blame past Bookie that thought this were a good idea." She fiddles with her pipbuck a little. "If I could go back n' time and punch past Bookie, I would. But lemme put it this way." She turns her pipbuck around. A note she is leaving to herself is on it.
  31. [2015-08-26 13:35:07] * Puppy "sure... parlay, honey, can you please soar a couple hundred meters above us and send me a feed of what you see?"
  32. [2015-08-26 13:35:24] <Golden_Dream> "If you lose your memory again, slam Bookie's dick in a door."
  33. [2015-08-26 13:35:52] * Puppy "the weird thing is that parlay lost her data banks too... her last memories are from the ship..."
  34. [2015-08-26 13:36:04] * Bookwright winces. He's seen Golden_Dream punch things before. The other thought was too despicable to entertain. "Please don't go back in time and punch me. Also, please don't... do that either. Please."
  35. [2015-08-26 13:37:38] * Golden_Dream saddles up her shotgun. "Don't make deals with shifty spirits again, and we're gold." She looks around. "You know where the church is?"
  36. [2015-08-26 13:38:00] * Bookwright shakes his head. "Nope-a-roony."
  37. [2015-08-26 13:38:28] * Golden_Dream frowns. "We know where a school or somesuch is?"
  38. [2015-08-26 13:38:44] * Bookwright "I mean, I could use my information-finding spell, but it doesn't tell me what the information is or it's context, just highlights it. We're just as well off searching on hoof."
  39. [2015-08-26 13:40:10] * Golden_Dream perks up. "Y'know, I betcha where there's books, there's a library. Where there's a library, odds are there's a school. And cynically, if there's a school, there's a church nearby."
  40. [2015-08-26 13:40:19] * Get_Lost "i like shifty spirits... they are creepy and awesome..."
  41. [2015-08-26 13:40:40] * Bookwright "Yeah... but how does that help us find the church?"
  42. [2015-08-26 13:41:17] * Golden_Dream lowers her eyelids. "If y' use yer' book findin' spell and come up with a lot of hits in one place, odds are th' church'll be nearby."
  43. [2015-08-26 13:42:36] * CopyCat studies the outside of the temple, going over those spray painted words again and again. "Who are we?" she muses to herself. The mare blinks. "Also where are we... No. /We/ are here. But where are my crew?" She looks around. "I'm sure I had some..."
  44. [2015-08-26 13:43:24] * Get_Lost shrugs "well, at last i got lost for real... yay me, success rate now is 100%"
  45. [2015-08-26 13:43:50] * Noble_Heart looks to Mitzi and frowns slightly. "We are not certain. We cannot remember anything about this place..." She raised her leg with the PipBuck checking to see whether or not it had a map of the local area. Perhaps she could retrace the steps that brought her here?
  46. [2015-08-26 13:45:19] <Mare-Do-Well> 3Parlay beep-boops obediently and flies off.
  47. [2015-08-26 13:45:55] * Get_Lost "i guess that with some aerial photos we will have a better idea of how messed this place is..."
  48. [2015-08-26 13:48:35] * Bookwright grunts and grudgingly gives in. "Y'know what? Okay. Might as well." His eyes cross, and flickering torchlight with no source washes the area around him.
  49. [2015-08-26 13:53:18] * Mitzi nods, not really able to discern direction when she wasn't on or under solid ground. She places a paw on her chin contemplatively. "Maybe we make signal, den dey come tu us?" She suggests to Noble_Heart
  50. [2015-08-26 13:53:40] <Mare-Do-Well> 3The world mystically lights up for Bookwright.
  51. [2015-08-26 13:57:51] <Mare-Do-Well> 3Zebras did not have earth pony magic, so the remains of their pre-Apocalyptic empire have suffered much more under the destructive force of time. Still, Bookwright is able to pinpoint hundreds of records, their lights like sea of stars.
  52. [2015-08-26 13:59:58] <Mare-Do-Well> 3Several of those lights are in this building, and are quickly discerned to be of no significance. However, there are clusters of lights out in the smoke that may hold some promise.
  53. [2015-08-26 14:02:26] * Noble_Heart frowns and contemplates that. "We are uncertain that would be wise. Considering the presence of possible hostiles in the area. While We have little concern over Our ability to handle it, We would prefer to avoid unnecessary risk. If We cannot find them other ways We shall try to call them."
  54. [2015-08-26 14:03:02] * CopyCat 's gaze wanders back to the temple front. "We could go exploring a strange new world..." She takes a step forward and then hesitates. "But not without my away team!"
  55. [2015-08-26 14:03:23] * Bookwright "Right. Okay, I see several spots that look like they might be what we're looking for. Hopefully they're not just heaps of newspaper." He picks the nearest cluster and starts for it. "This way."
  56. [2015-08-26 14:03:31] <Mare-Do-Well> 3Parlay starts sending Get_Lost images: a hazy blue sky with thunderclouds threatening from one direction. The expanse of unfamiliar lands cut by roads. And below: white. A valley filled with smoke so thick it lays like a blanket. Even up here, the smoke discolors the air. Parlay complains.
  57. [2015-08-26 14:04:05] * Golden_Dream looks back, then looks ahead. "You got point, Bookie. Shatara, keep an eye out fer' anyone else, alright? You got them better eyes."
  58. [2015-08-26 14:04:13] * Get_Lost "sweetie, did you try thermal vision?"
  59. [2015-08-26 14:05:49] * Shatara nods.
  60. [2015-08-26 14:06:54] * Get_Lost then yo the others "there isn't very much to scout from the sky, i'm sorry..."
  61. [2015-08-26 14:08:10] <Mare-Do-Well> 3The local automapping function of Noble_Heart's PipBuck has indeed been creating a map of her travels. The map is entirely without points of reference, as this place has no tags. But she can see her exploration of the school, and the directions she had gone before during a time she cannot remember.
  62. [2015-08-26 14:09:26] * Mitzi looks to Noble_Heart, "Eef Uh got under da ground, Uh might be able tu feel dere hoofs, eef dey were in a grup."
  63. [2015-08-26 14:10:02] <Mare-Do-Well> 3The temple doors stare back at CopyCat impassively. Their little inset windows do look a little bit like eyes.
  64. [2015-08-26 14:11:06] * Noble_Heart tilts her head to one side. "For now, We recommend simply re-visiting the places We have already been. It is likely that our friends are somewhere along that trail." She turns to head in the direction her map tells her they've already visited
  65. [2015-08-26 14:11:07] * Shatara takes a moment to manually tag the power station before leaving.
  66. [2015-08-26 14:11:34] <Mare-Do-Well> 3Parlay sends back thermal imagery, noting the whole valley is abnormally warm with a number of hot zones.
  67. [2015-08-26 14:12:11] * Mitzi blinks, looking at Noble_Heart's pipbuck, "When did yu get dat?" She didn't remember her having it before.
  68. [2015-08-26 14:13:07] * Noble_Heart frowns. "In Roam. We are afraid that it is the reason why We are here to begin with. Most likely at least. Those who run the catacombs charged Us with dealing with the Vault of LIV in exchange for Our freedom."
  69. [2015-08-26 14:15:40] * Get_Lost "there's a lot of hot stuff going on in the fog... i can't really say what it is, though"
  70. [2015-08-26 14:16:54] * Mitzi frowns, "Dat's stupid. Yu got captured by nastee bug ponee, yur freedom not dere's tu take."
  71. [2015-08-26 14:20:10] * Bookwright looks over his shoulder as he walks. "What do you mean, 'hot stuff'? Like, in the radioactive sense? Golden_Dream, are you picking up any radiation?"
  72. [2015-08-26 14:20:29] * Golden_Dream checks.
  73. [2015-08-26 14:20:52] * Get_Lost "not sure... there are just hot spots in the mist, as if they're still generating heat"
  74. [2015-08-26 14:21:15] <Mare-Do-Well> 3The quartet head out into smoke-shrouded, silent streets lined with decaying buildings. Storefronts boast names in a mixture of alphabets, none readable. Ahead, a motorized bike leans against a lamp-post.
  75. [2015-08-26 14:21:28] * CopyCat turns her tail towards the Temple and faces back the way she'd come. "We... /I/ am missing a part of me. My crew... I mean, /friends/, are out there somewhere. I've got to find them." She looks down at her hooves and takes a deep breath, then starts to trot back towards the town. The temple would have to wait.
  76. [2015-08-26 14:22:38] <Mare-Do-Well> 3The nearest cluster of records is only a couple blocks dead ahead.
  77. [2015-08-26 14:23:44] * Get_Lost "parlay, keep hovering above us and tell me if you see some movement or anything relevant.... uhm... plots are relevant"
  78. [2015-08-26 14:24:03] * Get_Lost follows the others
  79. [2015-08-26 14:24:32] * Noble_Heart shakes her head. "Freedom was theirs to -grant-. The changeling's spell sent Us to the catacombs beneath Roam. Those who maintain them and live there sent Us on this mission for releasing Us."
  80. [2015-08-26 14:28:12] * Shatara fidgets about, talons tapping on the weathered wood of his rifle nervously.
  81. [2015-08-26 14:29:16] * Mitzi shrugs at Noble_Heart, "Well, yur free now. Yu can even keep dere toy tu make up fur yur eemprisoneen."
  82. [2015-08-26 14:34:53] * Noble_Heart frowns. "We are not the type to reneg on a deal. Besides, it is entirely likely that the zebras have the means to track this PipBuck and will come looking if We did not fulfill their request."
  83. [2015-08-26 14:36:45] * Mitzi frowns, "Den we'll make sure dey don't take advantage uv yur generositee. Does LIV guys though, eez dey da bad bug ponees, ur eez dey sumteen else?"
  84. [2015-08-26 14:42:38] * Golden_Dream blinks. Is that..? No way. "... Get, can you fix that thing?"
  85. [2015-08-26 14:43:28] * Mitzi blinks, then looks at Noble_Heart before dropping to the floor and putting her ear right up against the ground. "Sumteen comeen."
  86. [2015-08-26 14:43:31] * Bookwright "There's some kind of machinery operating just ahead. Can anypony else hear that?" He points ahead, and to the left. "I'm gonna check it out. The first spot to check is pretty far forwards."
  87. [2015-08-26 14:44:02] * Noble_Heart nods her head. "Something large." She frowned and moved towards a window to look out into the fog.
  88. [2015-08-26 14:45:39] * Bookwright walks towards the sound he heard, intent on discovering its source.
  89. [2015-08-26 14:46:22] <Mare-Do-Well> 3Get_Lost looks over the motorized bike. It has weathered the centuries admirably well, but there are several parts that are corroded or rusted through to the point that they will need to be replaced, as will the alchemical battery array.
  90. [2015-08-26 14:46:28] * Get_Lost trots next to the bike "well, with the proper parts nd if we have fuel to run the engine, i think i could..."
  91. [2015-08-26 14:47:17] <Mare-Do-Well> 3Get_Lost realizes she has just seen the parts necessary to fix the motorized bike... they were what she was apparently gathering back at the service shop.
  92. [2015-08-26 14:47:32] * Get_Lost "where i woke up there was plenty of parts, piece of cake"
  93. [2015-08-26 14:48:54] * Get_Lost "bookie, i'm coming with you"
  94. [2015-08-26 14:50:01] * Shatara supposes he should make sure Bookwright doesn't get himself killed chasing ghosts...
  95. [2015-08-26 14:54:00] * Golden_Dream rolls her eyes, and goes with-
  96. [2015-08-26 14:54:42] * Shatara makes sure to mark the motorcycle as well.
  97. [2015-08-26 15:06:14] * CopyCat trots back through the misty streets of the ruined town looking for any sign of her friends. She'd left the temple behind her, but for all she knew her friends were already inside, or... Or something bad had happened to them and she'd made herself forget. CopyCat bites her lip and shudders at the thought.
  98. [2015-08-26 15:22:56] <Mare-Do-Well> 3...
  99. [2015-08-26 15:26:49] <Get_Lost> ...
  100. [2015-08-26 15:27:05] <Golden_Dream> ...
  101. [2015-08-26 15:27:14] <Mare-Do-Well> 3CopyCat finds herself airborne, flying over the smoke-shadowed shapes of her friends... and the bus-sized robotic zebra walker trying to exterminate them.
  102. [2015-08-26 15:29:18] <Mare-Do-Well> 3The robot is generating shields -- very similar in design to the blue energy fields that the Enclave used -- which rotate around it protectively, moving out of the way when it fires.
  103. [2015-08-26 15:29:38] <Mare-Do-Well> 3Shatara and Get_Lost have taken cover in the gap between two buildings, but shots from the robot's forward autocannon is tearing the building apart.
  104. [2015-08-26 15:31:27] <Mare-Do-Well> 3Bookwright and Golden_Dream are running around the opposite side of it, heading towards a large building that looks to be a school. Golden_Dream is firing off shots, dividing its attention. It is returning fire with a grenade machine gun.
  105. [2015-08-26 15:31:48] * Get_Lost squeals in joy "I WANT THAT TOY!"
  106. [2015-08-26 15:32:34] <Mare-Do-Well> 3Shatare, Get_Lost and CopyCat do not remember how they got into this situation. Each of them is missing a small slice of recent memory.
  107. [2015-08-26 15:33:32] <Mare-Do-Well> 3Noble_Heart blinks in some surprise. "We suppose it has found Our friends then."
  108. [2015-08-26 15:36:17] * Get_Lost is trying to think fast. "it looks good, but i would have used some sort of homing mortar to get things past obstacles or intrenched..."
  109. [2015-08-26 15:36:27] <Get_Lost> *entrenched
  110. [2015-08-26 15:39:17] * Shatara grubles as he double-checks his Anti-machine rifle, not remembering getting it out, his cover disappearing with disturbing rapidness. "Does anyone remember why we didn't bring our stealth PT boat of doom?"
  111. [2015-08-26 15:40:27] * Mitzi tunnels under the ground rapidly, heading towards the heavy tremors caused by the machine.
  112. [2015-08-26 15:40:29] * Golden_Dream very aptly shouts out, "No!"
  113. [2015-08-26 15:52:47] * CopyCat panicks, but very quickly. She can't quite remember how she or her friends got here but she definitely felt a sense of relief that they were nearby. Which may have been a strange feeling to experience given there was also a giant death robot trying to kill them, but she felt it anyway.
  114. [2015-08-26 15:54:57] * CopyCat hovers for a moment, scanning the robot quickly with her eyes. She borrows Get_Lost's robo-curiosity as she attempts to to locate the machine's eyes... or what it was using to locate them.
  115. [2015-08-26 15:55:50] * Get_Lost sighs "parlay, get me connected with that hunch. we're making friends"
  116. [2015-08-26 15:56:26] <Mare-Do-Well> 3Parlay swoops back into the smoke.
  117. [2015-08-26 15:57:40] * Shatara blinks at Get_Lost. "Are you intending to talk the killer doom robot to death!?"
  118. [2015-08-26 15:58:30] * Get_Lost "not really, i dont' know what i can do, but if it is workng on some sort of program, i can stop it, or slow it, or make it detonate its ammo... or get a new pet.."
  119. [2015-08-26 16:02:21] * CopyCat identifies... something. Something Get_Lost had seen earlier. Given the urgency of the situation, that something was better than nothing and she aims at it carefully with her revolver, firing off a trio of shots while moving in time with the shield-gap.
  120. [2015-08-26 16:12:42] * CopyCat manages to score two hits on the sensor-doohicky through the smoke as the shields rotate by. Even if that was enough to cause damage a war machine like that must have had backup systems and similar... still, it was her best shot at slowing the thing down. She lets out a small "Whoop!", her mood oddly happy despite the mechanical menace. Her friends were near. Yay!
  121. [2015-08-26 16:15:14] * Get_Lost tries connecting with the robot, using a zebra military channell and trying to ger past the authorization to open a stable bridge
  122. [2015-08-26 16:15:54] <Mare-Do-Well> 3The first of CopyCat's shots hits the robot in its primary sensor array, punching a hole through the armored casing. The second strikes an energy shield that swiftly moves between the robot and its aerial attacker. The shield ripples with static, and definitely looks weaker.
  123. [2015-08-26 16:19:26] * CopyCat even lets out a mental cheer. ['Great shot Ms Wharf! Target all phasors on their sensor doohickys!']
  124. [2015-08-26 16:22:44] * Noble_Heart steps up towards the windows and presses her horn against one. Her horn crackles with energy briefly, before lightning coalesces on the far side of the glass, lancing across the smoke-and-fog laden air towards the great metal beast. A second strike follows moments afterwards.
  125. [2015-08-26 16:25:45] <Mare-Do-Well> 3Lightning erupts across the walker's surface. The energy shields immediately drop, and the robot ceases to move.
  126. [2015-08-26 16:30:13] * Bookwright jumps back in alarm and continues to run for the school. "Get away from the robot!"
  127. [2015-08-26 16:30:40] <Mare-Do-Well> 3Get_Lost's connection to the robot dropped out when the lightning strike hit it.
  128. [2015-08-26 16:32:06] * Golden_Dream jolts up in alarm. "HOLY SHIT, TAKE COVER, IT'S GONNA BLOW!" And she, for one, does inside of the school.
  129. [2015-08-26 16:32:11] * Get_Lost frowns "looks like a count do-"
  130. [2015-08-26 16:33:08] * Get_Lost "IT IS REBOOTING! DON'T LEAVE COVER!"
  131. [2015-08-26 16:37:30] * Get_Lost jumps out of cover and runs at the robot "Parlay! down here, fast!"
  132. [2015-08-26 16:37:47] <Mare-Do-Well> 3Parlay swoops after Get_Lost.
  133. [2015-08-26 16:38:33] * Get_Lost as soon as she's next to the machine, looks for the maintenance panel, or a USB access. is already getting the screwdriver to open it
  134. [2015-08-26 16:39:41] * Shatara takes the opportunity to pop around cover, intending to knock out that sensor.
  135. [2015-08-26 16:40:48] * Mitzi digs up right underneath the robot and attempts to put a claw through its underside, under the assumption its weapons wouldn't be able to see or reach her from there
  136. [2015-08-26 16:43:51] * Get_Lost finds the access panel, plugs a screwdriver in it and hits hard making the panel open with a metallic sound, then as soon as parlay is in range takes her connection port and locks it into the giant robot "Very well, let's get on board now"
  137. [2015-08-26 16:45:08] <Mare-Do-Well> 3The robot's armor is clearly no match for a hellhound's claws.
  138. [2015-08-26 16:45:25] <Mare-Do-Well> 3Or for Solaris persistence.
  139. [2015-08-26 16:46:52] * Get_Lost "guys, let me try hacking this before we wreck it, please?"
  140. [2015-08-26 16:49:30] * Mitzi pulls her claw out of the robot's innards and takes a loot at the situation.
  141. [2015-08-26 16:51:24] <Mare-Do-Well> 3Mitzi has successfully torn a hole in the robot, but doesn't look to have hit anything vital in the process.
  142. [2015-08-26 16:54:21] * Get_Lost frowns, this is going to take too long, frowns "aim at the moving parts! disable the servos!"
  143. [2015-08-26 17:07:12] * Shatara gives a good blam, the round impacting near the edge of the sens-or-mat, but good enough to turn it to shrapnel. He throws the bolt, another similar structure catching his eye, and he lines up on it. "Once more, with feeling..."
  144. [2015-08-26 17:13:13] <Mare-Do-Well> 3Shatara uses his new rifle to do just what it was made for. Two clean shots, and the walker sentry's sensor arrays are disabled. Now, when it reboots, it will no longer be able to detect Shatara or her friends.
  145. [2015-08-26 17:15:51] * Golden_Dream peeks out. Sees the robot still there. Goes back into the hidey hole.
  146. [2015-08-26 17:16:23] * CopyCat continues cheering.
  147. [2015-08-26 17:16:58] * Mitzi peers out from underneath the robot, her head and shoulders sticking up through the hole she had dug. She tries to spot her friends, or hear them.
  148. [2015-08-26 17:17:40] <Mare-Do-Well> 3Mitzi can see Get_Lost under the robot too, hacking into it in an entirely different way.
  149. [2015-08-26 17:18:00] * Mitzi waves to Get_Lost
  150. [2015-08-26 17:28:02] <Mare-Do-Well> 3Get_Lost waves back distractedly, sitting down. She announces "It's harmless now." (For Solaris definitions of 'harmless', that is arguably true.) "I'm going to work on this for a while."
  151. [2015-08-26 17:29:43] * Shatara reloads the anti-machine rifle just in case.
  152. [2015-08-26 17:31:18] <Mare-Do-Well> 3The walker sentry reboots, standing back up. >> Scanning for hostiles. <<
  153. [2015-08-26 17:31:41] * Golden_Dream slowly pokes her head out of her hidey hole. "Ya'll get it? 'Cause I-" NOPENOPENOPENOPE BACK DOWN BACK DOWN.
  154. [2015-08-26 17:32:04] <Mare-Do-Well> 3>> Area clear. Resuming patrol. << It begins walking away.
  155. [2015-08-26 17:33:28] * Bookwright slowly lowers the Jukebox gun, then holsters it after a hesitation. "...Right. That's a pretty broad definition of 'harmless' but I'm not going to argue it." He points at the school. "Well, here's one concentration of records. You folks wanna loot it, or move on?"
  156. [2015-08-26 17:34:14] * CopyCat lands on whatever could best be described as the robot's 'head'. Assuming there were no shields in the way. "Victory!" she declares.
  157. [2015-08-26 17:34:46] <Golden_Dream> There's a moment where she remained hiding. And then when she heard the robot tromp off again, poked her head out. "Y'know, I thought th' plan was t' hide from it until it went on it's merry way, but, uh. Good work anyway!"
  158. [2015-08-26 17:37:40] * CopyCat sits on the giant robot, looking a little like a pidgeon atop a statue. Except the statue was moving.
  159. [2015-08-26 17:40:50] * Bookwright "CopyCat, Shatara... that was some amazingly fine shooting. Well, er, shot. The both of you."
  160. [2015-08-26 17:41:38] * CopyCat cannot resist fluffing up her feathers. She isn't even sure why.
  161. [2015-08-26 17:42:08] <Mare-Do-Well> 3The walker sentry trudges off into the smoke. Parlay follows it, maintaining Get_Lost's connection.
  162. [2015-08-26 17:42:10] * Shatara takes a moment to wiggle with a bit of pride before looking around. "So uh...what were we doing again?"
  163. [2015-08-26 17:42:16] * Mitzi follows the voices towards her friends
  164. [2015-08-26 17:42:49] * Golden_Dream exhales. "Church. We need t' head to th' church." She looks around. "Any of you lot remember where the church is?"
  165. [2015-08-26 17:43:24] * Bookwright smiles beatifically. "No."
  166. [2015-08-26 17:46:29] * CopyCat bawk bawks and flutters off her perch back to her friends. She lands beside Bookwright, Golden_Dream, and Shatara as Mitzi joins them. "Hello again my dearest crew!"
  167. [2015-08-26 17:47:04] * Mitzi waves to CopyCat, "Gud tu find yu all again. Now, cun aneeponee tell me where we are?"
  168. [2015-08-26 17:47:39] * Golden_Dream sighs in relief. "Copycat! Mitzi! Ya'll're sights fer' sore eyes."
  169. [2015-08-26 17:47:53] * Shatara lights up when he sees CopyCat. He remembers this pone! He tacklehugs.
  170. [2015-08-26 17:47:54] * Mitzi picks up Golden_Dream and hugs her, mindful of her claws
  171. [2015-08-26 17:53:14] * CopyCat giggles, returning Shatara's hugs and smiling happily. "I'm so glad I found you! I... just didn't feel the same without you all."
  172. [2015-08-26 17:54:24] * Golden_Dream looks slightly out of sorts being hugged by a huge hellhound. Well, huge to her. She's not exactly the biggest of stature out there. "Eh heh. Um. Hey, Mitzi! I missed y' too."
  173. [2015-08-26 17:54:37] * Bookwright "Thank goodness we've found each other again. Now, as I was telling the others: I left a clue for myself in the Church, wherever that is." He calls out to Noble_Heart. "Hey, do you have a Church marked in your pipbuck?"
  174. [2015-08-26 17:57:34] * CopyCat turns her smiles towards Golden_Dream/Mitzi and Bookwright, too. "I didn't find a church but I did find a Temple. Oh, and I got a sidekick but then she vanished."
  175. [2015-08-26 17:58:08] * Bookwright "A temple? Temple... church... I guess they could be the same thing. Can you point us towards it?"
  176. [2015-08-26 17:58:13] * Golden_Dream shudders. "I think I know what y'all mean. We, uh. We gotta get outta this place before it swallows us whole."
  177. [2015-08-26 17:58:33] * Shatara checks his map to compare where he is compared to known landmarks.
  178. [2015-08-26 17:58:53] * CopyCat adds. "Also I can read zebra writing now. My communications officer has outdone herself!" CopyCat beams.
  179. [2015-08-26 17:59:22] * Golden_Dream blinks. "Who?"
  180. [2015-08-26 17:59:56] * Noble_Heart approaches Bookwright and shakes her head. "There are no markers on my PipBuck. It seems this area lacks them."
  181. [2015-08-26 18:01:29] * Bookwright "Well, you can enter your own, right? You should probably do that. If this group amnesia thing happened once, it might happen again."
  182. [2015-08-26 18:01:50] * Noble_Heart frowns and looks at her PipBuck. "We are uncertain how..."
  183. [2015-08-26 18:02:47] * Golden_Dream rolls her eyes. "Noble, c'mere so I can give y' a lesson and a hug, maybe not in that order."
  184. [2015-08-26 18:09:24] * Noble_Heart moves over to Golden Dream, wrapping a wing around the smaller pony. "We are glad to be back as well. We are sorry to have worried Our friends."
  185. [2015-08-26 18:56:42] <Mare-Do-Well> 3--- End of Session ---
