FoE PNP Group Unlucky 13 Session 31

[12:30] <TenMihara>  *****PnP Group 13, Hoofington Sucks: Session 31*****
[12:35] <ElevenMihara|GM>  Ignorance
[12:35] <ElevenMihara|GM>  Ignorance is bliss some would say.
[12:35] <ElevenMihara|GM>  What you don't know can't hurt you.
[12:35] <ElevenMihara|GM>  Naturaly, not knowing about something is the easiest way for it to fuck you up
[12:36] <ElevenMihara|GM>  Which makes the entire concept rediculous
[12:37] <ElevenMihara|GM>  Yet, occasionally some people are made to feel better through ignorance
[12:37] <ElevenMihara|GM>  It may not be wise, but the wasteland doesn't always allow for the best decision making
[12:38] <ElevenMihara|GM>  Will our wastelanders choose ignorance? Or will they come to terms with what they know to be true?
[12:38] <ElevenMihara|GM>  I guess we'll find out...
[12:38] <ElevenMihara|GM>  *****Session Begins*****
[12:38] <ElevenMihara|GM>  After picking up a new 'companion' on the outskirts of toll, the group resumes its trek. The newcomer seemed... interesting, but clearly was not fond of the idea of heading to Chapel.
[12:40] * Rime keeps pace beside her new coltfriend, brushing sides occassionally.
[12:41] <ElevenMihara|GM>  Logicc_Gates looks uncomfortable and confused
[12:42] * Proverb trots along next to Harmony.
[12:42] * Rime keeps a watchful eye on her new... going-same-direction-owes-me-a-place-to-live ponies. She also keeps a keen eye on the surroundings, she hates being in the open.
[12:43] <ElevenMihara|GM>  At least Rime doesn't have to worry about her albino photo-sensativity in the perpetual cloud cover. On that note, it starts raining
[12:43] <Proverb> "Lovely."
[12:43] * Harmony trots with her plasma pistol in her muzzle, not want a repeating if there was another ambush on the way.
[12:43] * Green_Field has moved a little away from the new couple.
[12:44] * Proverb lofts into the air, water trailing off her wings.
[12:44] * Rime pulls her slouch hat down more fully over her face. Fucking rain. Fucking Hoof. Shit burns...
[12:44] * Harmony 's brow furrows as it begins to rain, groaning as her mane sags, her meticulous brushing ruined.
[12:45] * Proverb can brushie Harmony's mane later!
[12:46] * Razor holds the box of guns over her head to shield from the rain.
[12:47] * Green_Field takes a blanket from his bedroll and drapes it over Daisy.
[12:47] <ElevenMihara|GM>  Daisy smiles appreciatively, but has been through worse. She would say so if she could, but she can't. And with the rain, writing was also not really doable
[12:53] <ElevenMihara|GM>  The trudge back to Chapel in the rain is particularly long seeming and miserable, but at least nothing tries to kill them. Directly anyways, the occasional lightning strike can seem eerily close
[12:55] * Proverb is now a very wet pegasus.
[12:56] * Harmony shivers. Stupid cold rain...
[12:56] * Razor is a slightly less wet unicorn.
[12:57] * Proverb thinks that some cuddles will be in order later.
[13:00] <ElevenMihara|GM>  The one good thing about rainwater is that its not radioactive. The group reaches Chapel soggy and, unsurprisingly, sees nopony outside.
[13:00] <Rime_> *spits a stream of tobacco juice as they enter Chapel. Yep, that about sums it up.
[13:02] * Proverb lands next to Harmony, letting her wings hang out as water run off them.
[13:02] <Proverb> ran*]
[13:03] * Rime_ "Why are we here?"
[13:05] * Harmony points a hoof to Razor, and the box that she is carrying. "We are here to deliver energy weapons to the foals of chapel." She nods at Razor. "We should deliver those to Charity quickly, Razor."
[13:06] * Rime_ chews idly. "Quickly sounds good."
[13:07] * Harmony shrugs. "Yes, though I recommend that we stay here regardless until the rain passes."
[13:08] * Proverb nods, shaking her wings. "Y-Yeah."
[13:08] * Razor can agree with quickly. She has someplace she wants to go before they leave, and the more time she has for herself, the better.
[13:10] * Rime_ chews and scowls, but follows in the muscle's shadow.
[13:13] <ElevenMihara|GM>  Charity's shop isn't closed, but the door is, with a makeshift awning bolted over the doorframe
[13:14] * Rime_ hides in Razor 's wake.
[13:14] * Harmony follows behind Razor.
[13:15] * Green_Field opens the door for Razor.
[13:18] * Razor doesn't need the door opened for her! She heads inside, giving Green_Field a glare.
[13:20] * Green_Field holds the door for the others before going in himself.
[13:21] <ElevenMihara|GM>  Charity looks up, "Oh, hey guys... where's the big one?"
[13:21] * Harmony walks in behind Razor, shaking out her mane as she enters.
[13:22] <ElevenMihara|GM>  Charity calls over to Harmony, "Please refrain from soaking the merchandise."
[13:22] <Green_Field> "We were ambushed and he didn't make it. We have supplies to help you fight the purple slimes."
[13:22] * Harmony blinks and nods her head apologetically.
[13:23] <ElevenMihara|GM>  Charity blinks at Green_Field, then looks saddened. "That's rough. I always figured he was one of those tough as nails old guys that never got killed. Thanks for the weapons though."
[13:23] * Rime_ is a ghost, slipping into the store and losing herself in the orderly clutter.
[13:23] * Harmony shakes her head. "He's not dead, just... out for the moment." She frowns at Green_Field. "He might still make it."
[13:24] <Green_Field> "He had survived many bad ones before, it's a shame the wastes called in his debt."
[13:24] <ElevenMihara|GM>  Charity blinks in confusion
[13:25] * Razor gives a glare to Charity and Green_Field, and drops the box on the floor of the shop. She doesn't want to listen to this. She leaves, and heads up to the main building.
[13:25] <Green_Field> "True enough. The tough bastard mighy actual defy death again."
[13:26] <ElevenMihara|GM>  Charity nods, "That's... good I guess." She blinks at Razor, "What's her issue?"
[13:26] <ElevenMihara|GM>  Priest is up in the church, sitting at the altar and just looking lost in thought.
[13:27] <Green_Field> "He is."
[13:27] * Harmony nods to the weapons crate. "There are your guns, and the Flash Fillies will be sending someone to set up future exchanges, I believe." She sighs as Razor leaves. "Mister Kay's injury has been tough for her."
[13:28] * Razor doesn't really take notice of him. She just goes off to sit in front of one of the windows.
[13:33] * Rime_ listens to tge conversation in the shop, staying out of sight.
[13:33] * Green_Field let's hem talk and looks around for anything he might need.
[13:36] <ElevenMihara|GM>  Priest glances back and gives her a nod, then goes back to his own thoughts
[13:37] * Rime_ slips out of the store. She contemplates taking a few things for herself... But refrains. Charity didnt... She shakes her head and is outside.
[13:38] * Proverb is still following along next to Harmony.
[13:41] * Harmony smiles lightly, trying to clear her mind of the thoughts of Purple_Kay, and looks to Charity questioningly. "I believe that the last time we spoke, you mentioned the possibility of a discount if we were able to find a supply of energy weapons?"
[13:41] * Rime_ settles down on her haunches in the street, not bothering to conceal herself. She looks around. She hates this place.
[13:42] <ElevenMihara|GM>  Charity nods, "That happens when people we care about get hurt or killed. But that's the wasteland for you. And yeah, I can hook you up, since you did for us. Did you ever find out where those damn things were coming from?"
[13:44] * Harmony shakes her head. "Not the source, no, though they are coming downstream from somewhere near the Flash Fillies."
[13:44] <ElevenMihara|GM>  Charity nods, "You gonna try and fix the problem, or leave it to the Flashers?"
[13:46] * Harmony quirks her head and looks to Proverb. "Do we have any pressing issues to deal with?"
[13:46] * Razor is staring up at the stained glass... she feels pretty terrible. She's been hit hard by everything recently.
[13:48] * Proverb shakes her head. "N-No... uhm, what day is it today?
[13:48] <Proverb> "*
[13:50] * Harmony shrugs. "I am not sure." She looks back to Charity. "Perhaps we can deal with the slimes, since we have no other urgent matters. Might you be able to offer a reward for doing so?"
[13:53] <ElevenMihara|GM>  Charity shrugs, "No clue about the date. Why should I have to offer a reward though, those things are gonna be your problem as much as anyone elses, you guys have just proven to be particularly capable."
[13:54] * Harmony shakes her head. "Though we may meet them again, they are not wholly our problem, and compensation for ensuring the safety of Chapel would be appreciated."
[13:55] * Razor has all kinds of terrible thoughts in her head... but the most pressing one is looking more and more appealing: She has no more reason to wait around.
[14:00] * Rime_ finds something to hide under to take shelter from the rain. She watches the store while keeping out of sight.
[14:00] <ElevenMihara|GM>  Charity rolls her eyes, "Yeah, but why should I have to be the one compensating you? I already hooked you up with a discount in exchange for the delivery run, and we're not likely to have much more trouble now that we've got a supply chain set up."
[14:01] <ElevenMihara|GM>  Daisy stays close to Green_Field for a touch of warmth against their being all wet.
[14:02] * Harmony concedes and nods her head. "Fine, fine. We /may/ look into it then, if we have nothing else to attend to."
[14:02] <ElevenMihara|GM>  Charity nods, "And I -may- be willing to extend a token of gratitude -if- the problem is dealt with."
[14:04] * Harmony nods. "Fair enough." She turns and looks down to Proverb. "Is there a reason you asked about the date?"
[14:06] * Proverb smiles a bit. "Well, uhm, I think it's my birthday."
[14:08] * Harmony blinks, her smiling widening. "Oh? I wish you had told me sooner, then I would have had time to plan something... special."
[14:09] <ElevenMihara|GM>  Charity waves a hoof, "No 'special' in my shop please. Get your own place."
[14:09] * Proverb blushes a tiny bit. "Oh, well, I f-forgot until now, heh."
[14:09] * Green_Field picks out a some food and drink and sets in on the counter while pulling out his bag of caps, "do you have pure water too?"
[14:10] <ElevenMihara|GM>  Charity nods, "So long as you don't mind filtered rainwater, then yes."
[14:12] * Harmony chuckles. "Mhmm... I will need time to get something together then." She leans down and nuzzles Proverb, giving her a kiss on the cheek. "Would you be able to wait inside Chapel, and out of the shop, while I plan?"
[14:12] * Proverb nods, blushing a bit more. "Y-Yeah!"
[14:13] <Green_Field> "As long as it's clear of contaminants". He takes some, pays, and heads outside.
[14:14] <ElevenMihara|GM>  Charity provides the desired number of bottles filled with filtered rainwater. It would be free of radiation and the filtering, though not a proper purifier, should have taken care of any other contaminants
[14:14] * Harmony smiles, nudging Proverb to get a move on! "It will be worth the wait..."
[14:14] * Proverb nods, and scurries out of the shop!
[14:15] * Rime_ watches from her mostly, kinda dry hiding place.
[14:16] * Harmony walks up to Charity. "I know you did not have one in stock the last time... but would you happen to have any sort of sniper rifle for sale? If nothing else, anything of note that would be suitable for a present?"
[14:17] <ElevenMihara|GM>  Priest trots over to Razor, "I take it something is on yoru mind?"
[14:18] * Proverb finds a spot out of the rain to sit down in and wait, taking out her Battle Rifle and fiddling with the sights a bit.
[14:19] <ElevenMihara|GM>  Chairty ponders that, "Well..." She looks around, "Aside from your grown up hanky panky stuff, what's she like?"
[14:21] * Razor glances over toward Priest briefly, before turning back to the window. "I'm gonna do it... I'm gonna make the challenge." She avoids talking about the reason for her decision. The reason hurts too much. "I've waited too long... and there's no reason to wait longer anymore."
[14:22] <ElevenMihara|GM>  Priest nods, "A challenge to join the Reapers was it not? Do you think you are prepared?"
[14:24] <Harmony> "Well, it seems that she especially would like a new rifle. I know she has been looking for one." Harmony thinks for a moment. "She might like a new eyepatch, but a new rifle, or a modification for her current one, would probably be preferable."
[14:24] <ElevenMihara|GM>  Charity ponders that, "Well, if you could bring me the rifle for a bit I could see if I've got anything that'll fit it. As for an eyepatch, I could probably embroider one."
[14:25] * Rime_ 's hiding spot is suddenly much fuller. Not as full as if a full sized pony had barged in, but still. She gives the peagus' tail a tug.
[14:26] * Razor keeps her eyes on the window, even though she bristles at the comment. "You don't think I am? It's been the thing I think about most for a long time... I've been prepared for longer than you've even known me!"
[14:27] * Proverb meeps, looking over at Rime_. "Uhm, h-hi..."
[14:28] * Green_Field leads Daisy to the main building, thinking it'll be more comfortable there for them and to get out of the rain.
[14:28] <ElevenMihara|GM>  Daisy follows and shakes herself off once she gets inside
[14:29] * Harmony nods. "I think that will do. I was wanting it to be more of a surprise, but...I will go fetch her right away. Before I go, would you have any kind of birthday supplies... or ehm, adult things?" "
[14:29] * Rime_ glowers. Then looks side to side.
[14:30] * Rime_ darts forward and gives Proverb a quick hug. "Thank you for catching me." She releases her. "And that didnt happen."
[14:31] <ElevenMihara|GM>  Priest nods, "If you are certain, then go with Celestia's blessing."
[14:31] * Proverb squeaks, nodding. "R-Right."
[14:32] <ElevenMihara|GM>  Charity frowns, "No. No adults here, no adult things. Period."
[14:33] * Harmony nods. "My apologies. I will be back." Harmony turns, exiting the store and calling out, "Proverb?"
[14:34] * Green_Field starts to dry Daisy off a little with the blanket, "there, we're out of the rain at least."
[14:34] * Proverb 's ears perk, looking out from her dry spot with Rime. "O-Over here!"
[14:35] * Razor frowns, but nods slowly. She's determined to see it through, and she can't bear to sit around with her thoughts any longer.
[14:35] * Harmony motions for Proverb to come back into the store. "I need you to be here for your present!"
[14:36] * Proverb nods, scurrying out and over to Harmony, slinging her battle rifle back over her back. "O-Okay!"
[14:38] * Harmony nuzzles Proverb, nudging her to follow inside. "I was hoping for it to be more of a surprise, but Charity will be able to modify your rifle, and embroider your eyepatch, if you would like."
[14:39] * Proverb squees rather loudly, giving Harmony a tight hug. "Really?!"
[14:39] * Harmony smiles, hugging Proverb tightly. "Yes. And happy birthday, love."
[14:41] <ElevenMihara|GM>  Charity looks to Harmony and Proverb, "Keep it to yourselves please. And shorty, your eyepatch if I may?"
[14:42] * Harmony lets Proverb go from the hug after giving her another quick nuzzle.
[14:42] * Proverb nodnods, taking her eyepatch off and hoofing it over to Charity. Her mane falls over her missing eye as she does.
[14:45] <ElevenMihara|GM>  Charity also looks to the battle rifle, "Might have a scope that'll fit that one, give it here."
[14:46] * Proverb nods, unslinging her Battle Rifle and hoofing it over as well.
[14:47] * Harmony smirks, leaning down to whisper into her ear. "We will have some 'birthday fun' later tonight~
[14:47] <Harmony> "
[14:48] <ElevenMihara|GM>  Charity heads into the back of her shop. There's a lot of sounds that don't really sound like a filly should be making them, and then she comes back out an hour later. She presents the Battlerifle, fitted with a scope, althoguh the base of it looked like Charity had modified it slightly to fit better, and the eyepatch had a stylized skull on it with lightning underneath.
[14:48] * Proverb squeaks and blushes, grinning.
[14:48] * Harmony smiles at Charity. "Thank you very much. And how much will that cost?"
[14:49] * Proverb takes the eyepatch, staring at the insignia on it for a minute, before putting it back on, next looking down the scope of the battle rifle, squeeing a bit.
[14:50] <ElevenMihara|GM>  Charity hmms for a moment, "I'll say three hundred for the scope after your discount and call the eyepatch a gift for customer loyalty."
[14:52] * Harmony reaches into her packs and hoofs over the caps. The deal seems fair enough.
[14:53] <ElevenMihara|GM>  Charity nods, "Pleasure doing business with you."
[14:55] * Rime settles back into her hiding spot, alone again. She watches the road with disinterest. This really wasn't that dry a spot...
[14:57] <ElevenMihara|GM>  Priest has nothing more to say to Razor really, knowing the look on the face of someone who can't be disuaded. He goes back to the altar and seatsh imself. "Best of Luck Razor."
[14:58] * Rime This whole place is stupid, but this place in this place is extra stupid. She decides to take shelter in an actually dry building. Which leaves her... ugh... the Chapel itself. She slinks over to it and goes in. sticking to the back.
[15:01] * Razor is still mentally prepping herself, sitting over in front of one of the windows.
[15:04] <ElevenMihara|GM>  Rime goes unnoticed
[15:05] <ElevenMihara|GM>  Charity looks at Proverb and Harmony, "If you're gonna keep pankying, I suggest taking it to Flank or someplace."
[15:07] * Green_Field falls into what is probably an awkward silence with daisy, not sure what to talk about.
[15:08] * Proverb blushes, and heads outside with Harmony.
[15:20] * Razor waits for a while longer before she gets up, and heads outside. Screw the rain! She has somewhere to go. She goes off to look for Harmony, Proverb, or Green_Field.
[15:21] <Green_Field> Razor passes Green_Field as she heads for the door.
[15:24] * Rime curls up in the back corner under a pew, watching and listening. She stares with a deep scowl at Priest's back.
[15:25] * Razor almost misses Green_Field in her hurry. She eyes Daisy, then looks back at Green_Field. "I'm going back to the Reaper Stadium."
[15:27] * Green_Field gets up knowing it's pointless pointing out to her that it's still raining, "lead the way."
[15:27] * Harmony smiles, now outside, and gives Proverb another big hug.
[15:28] * Proverb squees, and the kisses Harmony full on, purring.
[15:29] * Razor is glad he doesn't argue! Next, she goes looking for Proverb and Harmony.
[15:29] * Harmony pulls back from the passionate kiss after a moment, chuckling. "We will need to find someplace more... private."
[15:29] * Proverb nods, giggling.
[15:30] <ElevenMihara|GM>  Charity shoes them out of the store
[15:30] * Proverb was already out of the store!
[15:53] * Rime continues to stare.
[15:53] * Proverb kisses Harmony's cheek.
[15:53] * Razor meets Proverb and Harmony outside Charity's store. She rudely interrupts them. "I'm going back to the Reaper Stadium."
[15:54] * Green_Field Follows Razor.
[15:54] * Harmony blinks and raises an eyebrow. "And... you are sure that you are ready?"
[15:55] * Razor gives a derisive snort in response. "Why wouldn't I be? We can stop at Megamart first... but after that, I'm going."
[15:56] <Logic_Gates> passes by Harmony and Proverb, completely undeterred by the tongue acrobatics. "Hey. Gonna go trade in my laser pistol. Thinking of getting something bigger. Think I might get a cap or two out of it."
[15:59] * Harmony nods. "Alright... then we shall go to Megamart, then the stadium, but after that," she asks Razor, "You would not mind taking care of the slimes for Chapel and the Fillies with us? I am sure we would be rewarded."
[16:01] * Razor taps her hoof a bit, thinking. She settles on saying, "Ask me after I finish."
[16:01] <Logic_Gates> tromps into the store. "Hey. I want a magical energy weapon."
[16:12] * Rime slips quietly out of the Chapel, seeing the group assembled. She trots up. "Are we /done/ with this place yet?"
[16:12] * Rime scrubs absentmindedly at her white coat, the rain actually helping get the smoketrails off her.
[16:13] <ElevenMihara|GM>  Charity looks to Logic_Gates, "Well all I've got is what just came in the crate, so..." she shrugs
[16:14] * Harmony nods to Rime. "Yes, and we will be heading to Megamart, then to the Reaper stadium. Will you still come with us?"
[16:14] * Rime nods. "You owe me a place to live, and Imma hold you to it."
[16:16] * Harmony rolls her eyes. "Right."
[16:22] * Proverb sighs. "S-Sorry about that..."
[16:23] * Razor snorts. "Suck it up, Runt! The Hoof ain't a nice place!"
[16:25] * Rime sticks her tongue out. As long as the hot one is agreeing to it, she'd going to hold her to it.
[16:30] * Rime "Consider it sucked, then. Just cause it's done doesn't mean I'm gonna let her back out of her promise!"
[16:33] * Razor rolls her eyes. Harmony just /had/ to promise something dumb to this filly, didn't she?
[16:33] * Harmony rolls her eyes. "Razor, are you wanting to leave now, or will you at least wait until the rain has cleared?"
[16:36] <Logic_Gates> tilts his head. "So, wait. Do you need more time, or what?"
[16:36] * Harmony frowns. "Mister Kay wouldn't have left the filly with nothing. It was partially our fault."
[16:37] * Razor is about to insist that they leave immediately... but she needs to be in tip-top shape for the challenge. Going all over the place in the rain doesn't seem like the best idea for her health. "Fine, we can wait for the rain. But as soon as it stops, I'm going!"
[16:39] <Green_Field> "It wasn't my fault."
[16:44] * Rime grumbles. Waiting means staying in Chapel. At least she's been able to avoid everypony here so far.
[16:46] * Proverb offers Rime a tiny smile.
[16:47] * Rime comes out of her brooding a bit, the ghost of a smile tinging her lips when she sees Proverb, but she quickly schools it.
[16:49] * Razor could care less about what the filly wants. Right now, she has important things to do.
[16:55] * Rime spits some tabacco juice off to the side and takes the ribbon from the end of her braid. She removes her had and unknots her mane. If she's going to stand in the rain she might as well get the smoke out.
[17:02] * Rime shakes out her mane and looks up. "You're Harmony, and you're Proverb. Muscle and Dude, what's your names?"
[17:03] * Razor eyes the filly. "Razor. Remember it!"
[17:04] * Harmony nuzzles Proverb.
[17:05] <Green_Field> "Green Field and this is Daisy."
[17:05] * Proverb purrs, nuzzling Harmony back.
[17:07] * Rime looks at Razor, then her horn, then back into her eyes, then kinda up at her loose mane. She walks over to her, turns, and sits. She looks straight up to see her. "I will. So... help a filly out? Can't braid well with hooves, and you're a unicorn, so..."
[17:12] * Rime keeps staring up at Razor with big, questioning... nay... pleading eyes.
[17:13] * Harmony grins, moving over to Rime. "I can do your mane!~"
[17:14] * Razor eyes the filly like she's crazy. "You want me to... braid your mane? You'd be better off shaving it! Unless you actually like the idea of it being a tangled mess."
[17:15] * Rime glances over to Harmony then back to Razor. "But... But Miss Razor... unicorns do it best!"
[17:16] * Harmony shakes her head and points her hoof at Razor's mane. "Do you really think /she/ knows how to properly braid?"
[17:16] * Green_Field stands still hoping he doesn't get picked next.
[17:17] <Harmony> "Of course," she smirks. "Green_Field is also a unicorn. Perhaps he would also be able to do it well?"
[17:19] * Rime tilts her head quizically, a feat with how tilted back it is to look behind her. "All filly's know how to braid. It's just like... a thing!"
[17:19] <TenMihara|GM> Daisy sticks next to Green for warmth out in the rain
[17:19] <Proverb> "H-How about you ask y-your coltfriend?"
[17:19] * Proverb giggles a bit.
[17:20] * Green_Field seeing a way out, "she's right, I don't know how to do it."
[17:20] * Rime "/He's/ busy. /Miss Razor/ is here."
[17:21] <TenMihara|GM>  Charity opens the crate of magical energy weapons and looks to Logic_Gates, "Were you looking for anything specific?
[17:21] <TenMihara|GM>  "
[17:23] * Rime keeps applying doe-eyes to Razor.
[17:23] * Razor rolls her eyes. "Fine, but I warned you! Don't whine and cry when your mane is ruined."
[17:26] <Green_Field> "I'm going back in out of he rain. Come get me when you're done." He goes back inside the chapel.
[17:31] * Razor has pretty much no idea how to braid a mane. In the end, her attempt involves a lot of pulling and tying knots. It's not pretty.
[17:31] <TenMihara|GM>  Daisy follows Green inside and shakes off again
[17:32] * Rime sits through it, gritting her teeth. Maybe not /all/ fillies learn how to braid a mane... owww...
[17:33] * Harmony chuckles, looking over the two. "My offer is still available, Rime."
[17:33] * Rime stares 'please, fix this later' into Harmony's soul.
[17:35] * Rime turns when Razor is finished and gives her foreleg a quick hug. "Thanks for... trying. Miss Razor." She puts her hat back on and follows the others.
[17:35] * Razor mutters a quiet, "I did warn you, Runt." She's not the kind of pony that does braids.
[17:36] * Rime stops after a few steps. "Maybe I could do yours?"
[17:37] * Razor rolls her eyes in response. "No."
[17:37] * Rime "But, Miss Razor, you'd look good in a braid!"
[17:38] * Razor gives Rime her 'I am not amused' face. "I said no."
[17:38] * Proverb giggles, nuzzling Harmony. "Maybe I should do /your/ mane."
[17:39] * Harmony smiles. "That would be lovely, Proverb."
[17:39] * Rime pouts. "Okay, fine."
[17:39] * Green_Field says to Daisy, "if your mane is long enough you could see about having Harmony braid it. You might like the look."
[17:39] * Proverb lets out a happy mree! "Now, or, hehe, later~?"
[17:40] <TenMihara|GM>  Daisy pulls out her writing utencils while still inside the chapel and writes to him, "Maybe. Where is it Razor wants go?"
[17:42] * Harmony shrugs. "While we're waiting, why not now?"
[17:42] * Proverb nodnods. "Okies!"
[17:43] * Rime sticks close to Razor, since her coltfriend is still shopping.
[17:43] <Green_Field> "She wants to join a group of killers probably because of some 'respect' bullshit."
[17:43] * Harmony turns, sitting down so that Proverb could braid! Yay!
[17:44] * Proverb starts to braid Harmony's mane, giving her little nuzzles on the back of her neck too!
[17:45] <TenMihara|GM>  Daisy raises en eyebrow, "She already tough," the mare scribbles, "What group?"
[17:49] <Green_Field> "Physically she is tough, however her mental state is questionable in that regard. The group is called the reapers. They are the top murderers from various gangs. I had to work for them for a short bit to pay off a debt."
[17:51] * Rime "Umm... Miss Razor? Do we have to stay here? I don't like it here" She makes a show of rubbing her forelegs together.
[17:51] <TenMihara|GM>  Daisy blinks, "Reapers? They really tough, heard from old owners... bad ponies, but they fear reapers."
[17:53] * Razor gives a little frustrated sigh. "Suck it up. We're staying 'till the rain stops. I'm not ruining my shot by getting sick."
[17:53] * Rime "Then why are we still standing in the rain?"
[17:55] * Razor rolls her eyes. "Because you wouldn't take 'no' when I said I didn't want to braid you!" She glances over at Proverb and Harmony, then heads back to the main building to get out of the rain.
[17:57] * Rime spits a bit of tabacco to the side and follows behind. Neglecting to be sneaky.
[17:57] * Harmony smiles as she waits for Proverb to finish braiding her mane.
[17:57] <Green_Field> "Yes, them. As far as I know they exist to keep the various groups involved in check, which to be fair it does. The problem is that by it's function it encourages their existence. And, encourages others to join thus making them bigger as evidenced by Razor wanting to join."
[17:58] <TenMihara|GM>  Priest looks up as the party re-enters the Chapel. He raises an eyebrow at Rime's presence but says nothing
[17:58] * Proverb finishes braiding Harmony's mane, giving her a kiss on the cheek.
[17:58] <TenMihara|GM>  Charity pops open the crate and looks to Logic, "Was there anything in particular you were looking for?"
[17:59] * Harmony smiles. "Thank you Proverb, now, let
[17:59] <Harmony> 's go inside and see what the others are up to."
[18:00] * Proverb nods, kissing Harmony gently before hopping to her hooves.
[18:00] * Logic stops. "Something that goes pew pew a bit more than a pistol."
[18:00] * Rime gives Priest a cold glare, but holds her tongue, staying right by Razor.
[18:01] <TenMihara|GM>  Priest just shakes his head with a sigh and goes back to starting up at the altar
[18:02] <TenMihara|GM>  Charity raises an eyebrow, "Like, a rifle? Or something with plasma instead of a beam?"
[18:02] * Logic shrugs. "Whatever hits harder."
[18:03] * Razor goes to sit in one of the pews, making herself comfortable. Waiting out the rain sucks.
[18:03] <TenMihara|GM>  Charity sifts through the crate, "You gonna have enough caps?"
[18:03] * Rime sits beside Razor, using her so she doesn't have to look at Priest.
[18:07] * Rime 's head slips to rest on Razor's side.
[18:09] * Razor eyes Rime. She doesn't understand this filly. One minute insulting her, the next begging her to braid her mane. Then, following her! "Hey!" She snaps at Rime. "What are you doing?"
[18:10] <TenMihara|GM>  Charity pulls a Plasma rifle out of the crate and sets it down on the counter. "This looks like a good one. With your discount... 1100."
[18:10] * Rime doesn't move... much. "Getting comfortable."
[18:11] <TenMihara|GM>  CHarity looks to Logic, "Can you afford it?"
[18:11] * Harmony heads into the Chapel. She rests against one of the inside walls, waiting for the rain to stop.
[18:11] * Logic blinks and looks at it and then looks at his funds. "Probably not."
[18:12] * Proverb follows after Harmony, murring and leaning against her.
[18:15] <TenMihara|GM>  Charity hmms... "Anypony in your group willing to contribute? Or maybe something to trade?"
[18:17] * Logic puts down a pistol. And some Leather Armor. "Um. Yeah, I'll be back in a second."
[18:17] * Logic trots off, wandering around to look for the group.
[18:21] * Rime scoots a bit closer and finds a better place to lay her head, now more focused on comfort than avoiding Priest.
[18:22] * Proverb murrs, snuggling up against Harmony.
[18:22] * Harmony cuddles up with Proverb.
[18:22] * Proverb purrs happily.
[18:22] <TenMihara|GM>  Logic can spot Harmony and Proverb cuddling just inside the CHapel
[18:25] * Logic steps up to the two lovebirds. "Hey, I need money."
[18:28] * Harmony raises an eyebrow and chuckles. "Sure, Logic_Gates." She hoofs him the remainder of her caps, 214 in all. "That is all that I have left."
[18:30] * Proverb looks at Logic. "H-How much do you need?"
[18:30] * Logic blinks. "Around 700 to get a new plasma rifle, not including the stuff I'm selling. If you don't need stuff, I'd recommend you get rid of it here."
[18:31] <Proverb> "O-oh... well, I sh-should sell a few things I suppose... and get some more ammo..."
[18:31] <TenMihara|GM>  Charity always likes getting stuff
[18:32] <Harmony> "If you are selling or buying, allow me to come along. I would like to try to barter with Charity..."
[18:33] <TenMihara|GM>  Key word being 'try'
[18:35] <TenMihara|GM>  Charity waves to the group as they come back to her shop, "So with the armour and the pistol, you only need another 870. Plus any ammo you want to buy"
[18:36] <TenMihara|GM>  Charity notes to Logic, "Gem Cells won't work in the bigger magic rifles, you'll need Micro~Sparkle packs. Fortunately, I happen to have some available."
[18:37] * Harmony quirks her head. "Perhaps you might offer a larger discount for Logic_Gates? The energy weapons were meant to be used for foals, after all. We will take care of the slime problem after heading to the reaper stadium as well, if you would be so kind."
[18:39] * Logic sets down 9 gem packs. "I can give you some napalm too, if you want it."
[18:41] <TenMihara|GM>  Charity blinks, "Napalm?"
[18:45] * Logic shrugs. "Something close."
[18:46] <TenMihara|GM>  Charity haggles with Harmony for a while, actually somewhat surprised that the mare can keep up with her. Well, almost. In the end, she offers another 10% off 'in good faith'.
[18:49] <TenMihara|GM>  Charity nods, "Alright, so with the trade-ins and discounts, that's 750 for the Plasma Rifle."
[18:51] * Rime eye's close, it isn't late, but it's been a rough day.
[18:53] * Logic huffs, then decides to do a little science real quick, putting down a tub of some very flammable stuff. "Close."
[18:53] * Logic then puts 373 caps down. "All I have, and that doesn't even cover ammo."
[18:53] <Proverb> "Uhm, I c-can cover the rest Logic..."
[18:55] * Proverb puts down 377 more caps to cover the rest. "A-And how much ammo do you want?"
[18:55] <TenMihara|GM>  Charity seems impressed by this gesture
[18:56] * Logic blinks. "A full battery will last me long enough."
[19:02] * Logic frowns. He doesn't like owing ponies. "Hey. Um. Here." He passes them two books to Provy, of which he's read. "It's not much, but it's what I can do right now."
[19:04] * Proverb smiles to Logic. "Th-thanks." She looks over the books.
[19:09] * Logic nods. She would probably like the Zebra Infiltration Tactics and Locksmith's Reader more than he would.
[19:09] * Proverb squees, giving Logic a hug.
[19:10] * Logic blushes. Not used to hugs from mares. Mostly, his experiences involved physical trauma more than hugs. He recoiled and gave Provy two pats on her withers. "Uh. Um. Yeah."
[19:11] * Harmony giggles, seeing Logic's blush.
[19:11] * Proverb puts them in her pack to read later.
[19:14] * Logic coughs. "I'm sorry for dragging you out here. I don't like owing ponies."
[19:15] <Proverb> "I-It's fine... the, the books are payback enough." She smiles.
[19:18] * Rime is soon lightly snoring, a ribbon of drool starting to leak from the corner of her lip.
[19:19] * Harmony looks outside, checking if it is still raining.
[19:19] * Logic coughs. "Right. I think it's best if we decide to see if Razor's decided to punch out a priest or something."
[19:21] * Razor scrunches her nose and nudges Rime the other way. Resting on her is one thing. Drooling is another thing entirely.
[19:23] * Rime rocks, eyes fluttering open. She runs a hoof over her muzzle. "Wha... sorry..."
[19:32] * Logic goes towards and into the Chapel. "Hey. I have a better gun now. How are you two getting along?"
[19:41] * Rime gets up and trots over to Logic. "We're great. You have a new gun?"
[19:41] * Logic nods. "Proverb and Harmony helped finance it."
[19:42] * Razor glances back toward Logic as he enters. "It stop raining yet?"
[19:43] * Logic checks the condition of his doctor's coat. "You want to get going soon?"
[19:43] * Harmony is still checking if it's still raining.
[19:44] * Rime "Yeah. We're in a hurry. We got places to be that aren't here!" She looks over at Razor and nods.
[19:45] <TenMihara|GM>  The rain has stopped pouring at least, a light drizzle now
[19:47] * Rime takes a moment to pull out a can of dip and take a pinch, moving it to the side of her mouth.
[19:55] * Razor mutters, "Don't wanna stick around..." She gets up and goes to take a peek outside.
[19:56] <TenMihara|GM>  The rain has stopped pouring at least, a light drizzle now
[19:57] * Rime gives Logic a quick nuzzle before following Razor.
[19:59] * Green_Field continues sitting and waiting for them to move out.
[20:00] * Razor deems it dry enough to get the show on the road. "Alright, now or never!"
[20:00] * Logic wonders just what the hell has happened that made him popular with the other gender all of a sudden. Did he get cologne on by accident or something?
[20:02] <TenMihara|GM>  Priest trots up to the group, "Are you taking your leave?"
[20:02] * Logic nods. "Yessir."
[20:02] * Rime takes a half step behind Razor, glaring at Priest. Scowl contorting her features.
[20:03] <TenMihara|GM>  He nods, "Very well. I wish you the best of luck, and expressmy gratitude for delivering those extra weapons for the foals." He casts a curious glance at Rime, then braves asking, "How did you meet this little one?"
[20:04] * Logic thinks back. "Her house got burnt down by robots. She decided to follow us around from there."
[20:04] <TenMihara|GM>  Priest nods, "I noticed that your large friend is absent. I suspect I already know the answer, but what happened to him?"
[20:06] * Logic frowns gravely. "Killed." He muttered, wearing his shame like a mask.
[20:08] * Harmony steps outside, now that the rain has turned to a light drizzle. She figures its time to leave, and moves to the Chapel to collect the others.
[20:08] <TenMihara|GM>  Priest bows his head, "I am sorry for your loss. I shall pray that in death, he has found peace."
[20:08] * Proverb trots after her, having started to read 'Zebra Infiltration Tactics' in the meantime.
[20:09] * Razor gives a bit of a sigh. At least Priest left it at that, instead of pressing things further. She doesn't like it when ponies ask about that, or talk about it.
[20:09] * Logic turned towards the door and started to leave. "It's not his peace I'm worried about."
[20:09] * Green_Field seeing that they're leaving, gets up and follows. "Let's go, Daisy."
[20:10] * Rime stands behind Razor emmenating malice.
[20:10] <TenMihara|GM>  Daisy nods and waves warmly to Priest before joining Green_Field outside. She looks around, as though wondering after a direction.
[20:11] <TenMihara|GM>  Priest can practically see the malice, which is why he hasn't said anything to her
[20:12] * Harmony motions for the rest to move as she heads out from the door she just entered, heading in the direction of Megamart.
[20:13] * Proverb takes to the air, shaking her wings off occasionally.
[20:13] <TenMihara|GM>  Priest calls to Logic as he leaves, "If you ever need an open ear, I can provide. Fare well."
[20:13] * Razor heads out with Harmony and the others. She'll take a look around Megamart, then... Reaper Stadium.
[20:15] * Rime is the last to leave. She scowls, spitting as sizable a stream of tabacco juice as she can at or on Priest's forehooves. She stomps toward the exit.
[20:16] <TenMihara|GM>  Priest sighs and cleans up the mess
[20:18] * Logic raises his eyebrow at Rime. "What's your deal with him?"
[20:22] * Proverb keeps her head on a swivel as they depart for Megamart.
[20:23] * Rime "He killed my parents." She's keeping pace but is somewhat toward the back with Logic.
[20:24] * Logic blinks. The fuck?
[20:24] * Harmony is at the front, out of range to hear Rime's startling revelation.
[20:24] * Proverb is flying up near Harmony, so also doesn't hear it.
[20:25] * Razor is trotting up closer to Harmony.
[20:26] * Green_Field keeping close to the rear as usual manages to hear, but says nothing.
[20:28] <TenMihara|GM>  Daisy looks confused at Rime's statement. Priest seemed really nice. She casts a look at Green_Field, looking for an explanaion
[20:32] * Green_Field leans in to Daisy and tries to say as quietly as he can in her ear, "don't judge yet, you haven't heard the story."
[20:33] <TenMihara|GM>  Daisy nods and looks slightly relieved, but still confused
[20:33] * Rime chews her lip, words wanting to flow out, but being bitten back.
[20:33] * Logic mulled that over in his head. No, he's pretty sure he knew the story. He's heard it time and time again. "It wasn't all his fault."
[20:35] * Green_Field listens to see if Logic will pull anything more from her.
[20:35] * Rime snorts, the floodgates opening. "The fuck you mean it isn't his fault. They didn't have the balls to off themselves the old fashioned way, but once they hear him /advertising/ his painless pilgrimage they march half way cross the Hoof to get there!"
[20:36] * Rime "And they /made/ it! We can't make it, we can't survive! But they /could/!"
[20:36] * Rime "And they /would/ have, too! If it wasn't for that colt-cuddling, cock-juggling, cum-guzzline, sphincter pirate!"
[20:37] * Rime "If he didn't have his fucking Chapel. Leave your foals and take the bitch way out, they would have found a way!"
[20:38] <TenMihara|GM>  Daisy winces away from Rime's language
[20:39] * Logic feels an overwhelming tiredness come over him. "You know what the last thing my father said to Priest when he left me there?" I'm going to go have a drink. But that's not the point.
[20:39] * Rime sniffs a little. "And he had the balls to hold me in that damn chapel and tell me it was all going to be ok while they offed themselves. Fuck him"
[20:40] * Rime looks up to Logic. "What?"
[20:41] * Razor glances back at Rime. She definitely heard that shouting.
[20:41] * Harmony stops in her place, hearing the... language, and perks her ears in that direction, listening in.
[20:42] * Proverb flattens her ears at that.
[20:43] * Rime keeps looking at Logic through rain-filled eyes. "What did he say?"
[20:44] * Logic shrugs. "He said that he was leaving me there because ever since my momma died, he just couldn't support me. So, he left me there." That's what Priest said, anyway. "I think that's what your momma and dad thought, in a weird way."
[20:46] * Rime "No decent parents would abandon their foal. There is /nothing/ a good momma, a good daddy, wouldn't do... I just had bitch parents. But if they didn't have such an easy way out, they would have kept leaving out of fear, if not love or care or anything else."
[20:47] * Rime *living out of fear*
[20:47] * Proverb keeps her ears flattened, the conversation about parents bringing back... unplesant memories.
[20:48] * Harmony tunes out of the conversation, her thoughts landing on when she killed her own father.
[20:49] * Proverb turns her attention to the wasteland around them, keeping a careful watch on it.
[20:49] * Razor completely understands Rime's frustration. Her own mother was the kind of mare who knew you had to fight the wasteland with all you have to make a living from it.
[20:49] * Rime "I'd turn that fucking Chapel into a crater if there weren't a few decent ponies there. I /hate/ him." She spits emphatically off the side of the road.
[20:51] * Logic frowned. "I thought about it for a little while. And, for a while, I was angry too. He didn't know, and etcetera. The thing is, he wasn't happy. And I don't think I would've ever been happy starved to death, because I almost was. Then, on a secret mission, I saw a ditch with some bones in it. One was an adult. Two were yearlings."
[20:54] * Rime "At least they got to die holding their momma, not left standing on a bridge hoping the breeze would bring a little of their ashes back..."
[20:55] * Logic shrugged. "I didn't think anything of it the first few minutes I spent looking through for stuff. They'd still had skin on them. I didn't know, but I think they were starved and then shot to death while they were weak. I started thinking that I'm more happy alive than dead. Even if I wasn't happy at all about it, at least I'm strong enough to change that."
[20:56] * Harmony continues to walk on, trying to get her mind off of her parents. Maybe she'll find her own mother soon...
[20:58] <TenMihara|GM>  Harmony would have to go back to Elysium for that
[20:58] * Rime "I didn't need them, and I don't need him either. I'm plenty strong enough. Don't change the fact he's killing ponies." She trots a bit faster, not wanting to talk about if further. She turns her eyes to the road and the sky and anywhere else.
[20:58] * Proverb 's parents are dead, her mom killed in a Sky Tank crash when she was 3, her dad killed in action when she was 16.
[20:58] * Harmony knows this, and plans on it.
[20:58] * Logic sighed. "The reality is, they were weak. And if you were raised by your parents, you would've been weak too. Hoofington demands perfection to live. Just the reality of it."
[21:03] * Rime "I was strong before they died." She spits again, blinking away the last of the rain in her eyes. Damn rain got under he hat someway. She walks more toward Razor, watching the road.
[21:04] * Razor makes a mental note to talk to Rime later. She's got a few things she'd like to say, when it's not open for everypony to hear.
[21:06] <TenMihara|GM>  Proverb catches a glint in the corner of her eye from somewhere on the ground.
[21:07] * Proverb flares her wings, gaze flicking towards the glint. "Hang on! I think I see something..."
[21:07] * Proverb glides down towards where the glint came from.
[21:09] <TenMihara|GM>  The glint is a half-buried bottlecap
[21:09] * Harmony 's eyes follow to where Proverb lands, and she trots over to the pegasus.
[21:09] * Proverb giggles, digging up the bottlecap.
[21:10] <TenMihara|GM>  As she digs it up, the wet earth shifts, revealing another three bottlecaps
[21:10] * Proverb tilts her head, digging them up as well!
[21:10] <Proverb> "Huh."
[21:10] <TenMihara|GM>  there's another dozen underneath
[21:11] * Razor finds this suspicious. She draws her weapon just in case, looking around.
[21:11] * Proverb keeps right on digging!
[21:11] * Rime melts into the surroundings.
[21:12] * Harmony still has her pistol out, now having the tendency to be ready while traveling.
[21:12] <TenMihara|GM>  It becomes clear very quickly that this might have been someone burying a deposit, but the recent rain had washed away some of the dirt covering it. Proverb eventually unearths a rotten wooden box, from which the caps above seemed to have been spilled
[21:13] * Proverb pulls the box up with a squee, opening it.
[21:14] * Green_Field notices Rime slinking off and watches her to see where she goes.
[21:14] * Rime slinks into a nearby divot of soil, watching and hiding behind some brush.
[21:14] <TenMihara|GM>  between the caps still in the lidless box (presumably it used to have one, but it rotted away over time), and the ones in the dirt just above it, Proverb's little find is 583 bottle caps.
[21:15] * Proverb lets out a very loud squee!
[21:17] <TenMihara|GM>  Daisy peeks over Proverb's shoulder curiously
[21:18] * Green_Field casually follows Rime to her hiding spot, "why are tryin to hide? It's not loke we're trying to catch you."
[21:18] <Green_Field> Like*
[21:19] * Razor is still glancing around, making sure it's not some kind of elaborate trap!
[21:19] * Proverb giggles, showing Dasiy the caps. "It's my birthday today, hehe. Yay~"
[21:20] <TenMihara|GM>  Daisy giggles
[21:20] * Rime eeps. It is not adorable at all. She scowls in an also not adorable at all way. "Standing in the open over a chest of caps doesn't seem safe to me."
[21:24] * Rime realizing that she isn't very hidden with Green_Field standing /right there/, she stands up and climbs out of the small depression.
[21:25] <Green_Field> "You have a point there, but that's why I stand away while they do that stuff."
[21:25] * Harmony is still standing guard with her pistol, just in case.
[21:25] <Green_Field> "You can't really 'hide' from an explosion."
[21:25] * Razor is standing guard with her machete. Menacingly.
[21:27] * Rime "I know /everything/ about explostions. And you can hide from them pretty good if you know the right spots. Like a depression in the ground that would deflect the overpressure and stop shrapnel."
[21:28] * Proverb tucks the caps in her bag and takes off again. Best to keep moving.
[21:28] <TenMihara|GM>  Diasy gives Proverb an affirmative pat on the back and then rejoins Green_Field, looking at Rime curiously
[21:29] * Harmony clears her throat. "We should continue, if you would like to make haste, Razor."
[21:29] * Green_Field turnin to get back walkin as well, "count me corrected. Just let me know if you get hit with shrapnel and I'll remove it."
[21:30] * Harmony continues on, walking towards Megamart.
[21:30] * Razor nods. She keeps her weapon drawn, though. That put her a bit on edge.
[21:30] * Rime nods. "And if something looks like it might blow you up, don't touch it. Let me handle it."
[21:32] * Green_Field gives Rime a respectful smile, "I love it when ponies understand how the relationship works. You have yourself a deal."
[21:36] * Rime smirks as she moves back to the others. Walking beside Razor. Coltfriend or no, she doesn't want to talk about Chapel anymore.
[21:41] <TenMihara|GM>  The party arrives at Megamart without further incident
[21:41] <TenMihara|GM>  -End Session-
[21:44] <TenMihara|GM>  Rewards: 1500 Experience
