FoE PNP Group 9 Session 23

[17:02] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  *** PnP Group Number Nine: Session 23***
[17:05] * Challenger ([email protected]) has joined #FruityRumpusAssholeFactory
[17:05] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  Last time on Group Number Nine, a small skirmish breaks out on the Long 15 over a washing machine. Most of the enemy combatants are dead, save a single pony. Glancing at the corpses of his fallen comrades, he frantically reverts to his Changeling form, tosses his rifle aside, and drops to his knees (or whatever ponies drop to when they beg for mercy). "P-P-Please don't kill me! I-I have information, caps, ammo... a-a
[17:06] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  "a-anything!  J-Just don't shoot me! Please!" He cries, not daring to look at any of you.
[17:07] * Challenger looks at the bug pony thing. "The fuck am I lookin at here?"
[17:08] * Wraith pulled the knife out of the raider leader (None-to-gently) and cast a few simple healing spells on the wound, telling the raiders to stop being such big foals.
[17:08] * Desert_Eagle frowns, his rifle leveled at the changeling. "Dunno."
[17:09] * Challenger walks cautiously over to the bug pony. "Why in the fuck were you shooting at us?"
[17:10] * Strifer is frothing madly from her mouth, the crazed mare is off on the battlefield, busy punching the corpse of one of the atackers with her powerhoof. Finishing the last of the drugs in her body. (That she totaly was planning to take during this combat.) "Stupid, stupid, stupid fucks! DO NOT FUCK WITH US!" Each word is followed by a stomp.
[17:10] * Wraith pokes her head out of the back of the truck "Hm. Black carapace, Equine shape, cheese legs, apparent shapeshifting abilities."
[17:10] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  Pain Spike and his cronies look grateful, albiet frowning at Wraith's choice of words. "Th-Thanks..." The spikey leader says, wiping blood from the corner of his mouth. The changeling whimpers, "B-Bounty! The Bounty! Please, just don't kill me!"
[17:11] <Wraith> "That, Challenger, is a changeling. I read about them in an old history book. They apparently attacked Canterlot before the war. Almost succeeded, too."
[17:11] * Desert_Eagle snorts. "An' why shouldn't we?"
[17:11] <Challenger> "Strifer, you got him, now stop pasting him." Looks at Wraith. "A changeling?"
[17:11] <Wraith> "Changeling."
[17:11] * Lollygag very carefully stows her gun back in her saddlebags before double checking her footing and carefully climbing down from the back of the car.
[17:12] <Challenger> "The fuck is a changeling?"
[17:12] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  The helpless changeling frowns slightly at Desert_Eagle. "I told you... I can... give ammo, medicine, information... please... let me live..."
[17:13] * Wraith hops out of the back of the truck and trots over to Challenger "A changeling is a race of equine insects, for lack of a better term."
[17:13] <Wraith> Changelings are*
[17:13] <Wraith> (<_<)
[17:13] <Wraith> (>_>)
[17:14] * Cloudy_Breeze is still ducked behind the fortification, for the moment She peers over to take in the scene before she flies down to land with the group. She's pretty injured.
[17:14] * Strifer looks up at challenger and then down at the changeling. "Oh.. Fuck, yeah I did." She grins and shakes herself, rummaging through the changelings corpse for anything usefull before moving back to her group with a jerking gait. Her pumped up body was still working off exess energy. Glancing at the Changeling as she licks her lips clean from whatever the hell the changeling during the combat had spat at her.
[17:14] <Challenger> "Bug ponies. Got it. Now seeing as how it nearly killed Breezy, you might wanna go help her out."
[17:15] * Desert_Eagle raises an eyebrow. "Bug ponies... interesting..."
[17:15] * Wraith scampers over to Cloudy_Breeze "Lets have a look Breezy."
[17:15] * Strifer snorts as she looks at teh changeling. Moving around to stand directly behind it. "Why the fuck did you attack us?"
[17:15] * Lollygag stares at the weird pony-bug as she approaches the group slowly, listening in. It seemed the slightest bit familiar, but she couldn't place it.
[17:15] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  The changeling ichor tastes like sewer water, but, then again, Strifer's probably tasted worse. It stings a little as it slowly trickles down her throat. The changeling yelps and turns to face Strifer. "I... I already told you! The B-Bounty... really! That's it..."
[17:16] * Cloudy_Breeze is nowhere near as badly injured as Challenger thinks, but she's a bit shot up, and bleeding.
[17:16] <Challenger> "Bounty from who?"
[17:18] * Strifer spits at the changeling. "Yeah, who!?"
[17:18] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  The changeling jumps away from the spit. "F-Fang! Mr. F-Fang! Please, just let me go! I swear I'll never hurt a pony again!"
[17:19] * Desert_Eagle snorts. "Likely story."
[17:19] <Challenger> "Fang. That asshole should owe US for saving his piece-of-shit town!"
[17:20] * Wraith grumbles "Can't do much about bullets being in your at the moment. Not exactly the most ideal place for surgery after all." She pulls a roll of bandages out of her bags "We'll just have to use this to stop the bleeding for now and maybe The doc in town will let me borrow her facilities for the rest."
[17:22] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  The changeling looks confused, but remains quivering and silent.
[17:24] <Challenger> "Well, what do we do with the bug thing? We let it go, it flies off and tells its buddies where we are."
[17:24] * Strifer smirks. Putting her powerhoof over the changelings back. "Not if take his wings off he wont..."
[17:25] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  The bug-pony shakes his head rapidly. "I won't, I swear!" He blanches and slumps to the ground as Strifer touches him.
[17:26] * Strifer snickers, grining wide and looks up at Challenger. "Or even better... " Calling out to everyone. "Oi! Does somepony here have any wonderglue?!"
[17:28] * Challenger smirks. "I'm torn here. On the one hoof I don't condone torture. On the other, you shot at us. I'm kinda wondering what that would look like."
[17:28] * Desert_Eagle chuckles a little at that.
[17:29] * Wraith just casts another couple of healing spells on Cloudy_Breeze because why not :I
[17:30] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  The changeling bounty hunter lies there as these evil, evil ponies decide his fate.
[17:32] * Strifer snarls and stomps her powerhoof at one of the bountyhunter's wings. "No glue, so fuck it!"
[17:33] <Challenger> "Nah. Let it go. WITHOUT it's gear or armor. Let the bugs out there deal with it."
[17:34] * Desert_Eagle nods, wincing as Strifer stomped a wing.
[17:34] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  The changeling yelps as Slicerness stamps on his wing. "G-Gah! You... why..." He whimpers, slowly getting up and shedding his thin, flimsy armor.
[17:35] * Challenger facehoofs and walks away. "D, strip it. I've got a fucking washing machine to load."
[17:35] * Wraith looks at the changeling "I'm not fixing that. I've already strained myself more than I wanted."
[17:36] * Strifer grins wide and then and leaves teh changeling for Deagle. She moves out to the battlefield and sees if there is anything interesting on the corpses.
[17:36] * Lollygag blinks a little as she watches Strifer mangle the changeling's wing. Such a familiar feeling... She just stare at it impassively, a small voice in the back of her head wondering what level it'll be put on.
[17:37] * Desert_Eagle nods, prodding the back of the Changeling's neck with his pistol. "You, up. Pile all yer gear an' weapons 'n front o' me."
[17:38] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  He nods slowly and leaves all of his belongings on the ground. It's not much; only a pistol, a kitchen knife, and a suit of leather armor. Strifer finds a few bullets and rifles that the bounty hunters were using, as well as a few grenades.
[17:38] * Challenger trots back to the box and starts pushing it toward the van.
[17:38] * Cloudy_Breeze is feeling quite a bit better. "Just kill it. Ain't any use in tryin' to be merciful, watchin' our backs, if all ya wanna do is cripple it."
[17:39] * Desert_Eagle looks back at the others. "Well, what d' yah want me t' do? Ah've got two different answers from y'all now."
[17:40] * Challenger just keeps pushing the box.
[17:40] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  The changeling, desperate to escape with his life, whimpers, "Please... let me go.."
[17:40] * Strifer decides to hoard it all and bring it back to the wagon. If anything it was caps, and caps was needed for more important things, especialy now when they where dead broke. Dumping everything at the back of their car for everypony to take whatever they wanted. "Some gifts from our local bugs!" She glances at Cloudy_Breeze; "So, kill it then." With a tailflick she moves back to help Challenger with the box.
[17:41] <Challenger> "Do what you like D. Your call."
[17:43] * Strifer helps Challenger to dump that box at the back of the car.
[17:43] * Desert_Eagle nods, looking at the changeling and frowning. "If yah know anything else know's th' time t' tell me."
[17:44] <Strifer> "The fuck is in this thing anyway?"
[17:44] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  The group's prisoner is trembling at the notion that he may not live much longer. "Wha-what d-do you want to know?"
[17:45] * Cloudy_Breeze just goes to start looking through the loot and stuff. She was definitely going to use one of those rifles.
[17:45] <Challenger> "Honestly, I really don't care. Just push."
[17:45] * Wraith wanders aimlessly around the truck
[17:45] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  Pain Spike groans and sits up in the back of the truck as Challenger and Strifer put the box in the back. With what strength he has, he helps the pair pull the box into the truck. "Well... you fuckers ain't so bad. Thanks..."
[17:45] * Desert_Eagle slowly holsters his pistol. "Anythin' 'bout other bands o' bounty hunters that're comin' after us would be much 'ppreciated."
[17:46] <Challenger> "Yeah, thanks for helping load it. We'll be on our way in a few minutes."
[17:46] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  With a shaky swiss cheese-hoof, the Changeling points up the road towards the looming snow-covered mountains of the Griffin Lands. "T-Talon... Mercs, probably... said something about a gang of raiders... and a big payout..."
[17:47] * Strifer grins at Pain Spike "Yeah, well, fuck you too!" She winks at the raid leader and moves up into the car to dump the fridge out of it.
[17:48] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  The raider veteran smiles at Strifer faintly and climbs out of the car. "Careful with that. Don't want the... cola... hey, where's the cola?"
[17:48] * Desert_Eagle nods. "Talon Mercs an' a raider gang? Well, looks like we'll 'ave our hooves full. Anythin' else?"
[17:50] * Strifer grins sheepishly "Ooops?" She waves a hoof at the cola bottles all over the back of the car.
[17:50] * Challenger starts to unload the fridge. "We were told to deliver a box. Contents of the box are not our responsibility."
[17:50] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  The changeling turns to face him with a slight nod. "N-Not that I know of... Oh! Wait! There was something about... Aurelia... coming for something that belonged to her..." Pain Spike deadpans. "You gotta be shitting me..."
[17:51] <Desert_Eagle> "Auerlia? Who's that?"
[17:51] <Strifer> "Hey, hey! Not our fucking fault we get attacked by bounty hunters, aight? Most of the shit is still there anyway, just gotta refill this little badboy. Easy as fuck!"
[17:51] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  The prisoner flutters his wing. "A-Alicorn... from the Pier... Didn't you meet her?"
[17:52] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  Pain Spike groans and starts collecting the bottles, as do his subordinates. He snorts at Challenger. "It kind of is."
[17:53] * Desert_Eagle shakes his head. "Nope. What's she want with us, besides the bounty?"
[17:54] * Lollygag shakes her head a little and turns away from the bug, bringing her attention to the pile of loot that had been gathered from the attackers. She trots up to it and examines it casually, smiling as she spots the kitchen knife. Plucking it from the pile, she gives it a few small test-swings before stowing it in her saddlebags.
[17:54] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  The changeling shakes his head. "Something about... Legion property or something... I only heard snippets..."
[17:54] * Wraith grenades get!
[17:55] * Challenger shoves the fridge out of the van.
[17:56] * Desert_Eagle nods. "Ah think ah know what she's talkin' about then..." He glances back at Challenger, before looking back at the changeling. "Now, if tha's all, turn around, an' start walkin' that a' way." He points a hoof towards the woods.
[17:56] * Strifer moves up to stand next to Deagle, causualy observing the changeling.
[17:57] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  The prisoner leaps to his hooves and briskly trots towards the woods, limping on her right hoof. "Th-Thank you! Thank you so much!"
[17:59] * Strifer grins and starts to trott after the changeling for a bit. "Run cunt, ruuuuun!" She picks up speed and starts to chase after the changeling.
[17:59] * Wraith facehoofs
[17:59] * Desert_Eagle unslings his Markspony Carbine and takes aim. "Don't mention it." he mutters, slipping into SATS, and lining up two shots at the bug's head. He fired.
[17:59] <Wraith> "Chall, you just going to let her do that?"
[17:59] <Wraith> "Welp. Nevermind~"
[18:00] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  Glancing over his shoulder, the changeling goes wide-eyed at his pursuer. He watches Desert_Eagle line up his rifle and crumples in a heap on the ground.
[18:00] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  "I never wanted this... p-please... don't..."
[18:01] * Challenger just climbs back into the van and puts the washing machine box in a spot where it's not blocking the door.
[18:02] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  The changeling's head is liquified into a green paste. Some of it gets on Strifer. Yummy.
[18:03] * Strifer blinks. She hadnt seen Deagle aiming up the shot. She glances behind her and grins wide at Deagle. "Woo! Fucking nice shot Turkey!" With a tailflick she turns on the spot and trotts back to the car.
[18:03] * Desert_Eagle snorts, reloading and slinging his rifle. He picks up what little gear the Changeling head, and trots back towards the van.
[18:04] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  Pain Spike was exiting the truck as Desert_Eagle pulled the trigger and gives the sniperbuck a wide smile. "Merciless, false sense of hope. I like it. You fucks -really- ain't that bad."
[18:05] <Wraith> "Great. Just what I've always wanted. To be chummy with a raider." She grumbles under her breath
[18:05] * Desert_Eagle grunts. "Ah don't 'ave too much respect fer ponies who try an' kill me." He examines the changeling's pistol.
[18:06] <Desert_Eagle> "O' anythin' else that does, fer that matter."
[18:06] * Strifer just snickers as she trots past Pain Spike. "We should do this again sometime.." She jumps into the car and awaits takeoff. Scratching her neck with a rearhoof.
[18:07] * Cloudy_Breeze glances up at the sight of the dead changeling. "Guess ya ain't so dumb afterall."
[18:07] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  The leader grins again, at Wraith this time. "Hey, you fuckers are always welcome in me casa. Make sure you tell that dickweed Feldspar that we're 'sorry' we got his shit damaged." He grins at Strifer, oggling her as she walks past. "We should."
[18:08] * Wraith climbs into the back of the truck and flops down "Are we sure this bucket of bolts will even run?"
[18:08] * Challenger glares at the raider. The message is clear."
[18:09] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  He just grins and trots back into his camp, whistling and licking some of the blood from his wounds.
[18:09] * Desert_Eagle shrugs. "Only one way t' find out." He climbs into the passenger seat.
[18:09] * Lollygag gives Wraith a sympathetic look in the back of the car, but doesn't say anything.
[18:09] * Strifer rocks forward. "Sooo... Shall we open this sucker and see whats inside then?"
[18:14] <Challenger> "Let's just get this thing back to town."
[18:15] * Strifer snickers. "Aww, not even a peek?.. Booring." She shakes her head, sighing and leans back.
[18:16] <Challenger> "Maybe if we don't open this one we won't get attacked."
[18:16] * Cloudy_Breeze finishes fishing though the cool shit and goes to check on the van to see if it hasn't taken too much of a beating to still work.
[18:17] * Strifer stomps a hoof at the floor. "Oi! Deagle, Breeze. Lets get this shit rolling?!"
[18:17] * Challenger ([email protected]) Quit ( Quit: If you think nobody cares, try missing a few payments )
[18:18] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  There's a sizable hole in the cargo hold now, enough to fit a fun-sized pony through. The engine compartment looks largely undamaged, and could totally work.
[18:19] * Desert_Eagle left the stuff from the prisoner in the back with the rest of the loot.
[18:20] * Challenger ([email protected]) has joined #FruityRumpusAssholeFactory
[18:20] * Strifer looks around at the ones in the back of the car. "So we get this box back to the town, then what? Aint we spoused to fix your shit up?" She waves a hoof at Wraith. One of her ears drooping in the process. She frowns, lifting a hoof and stroking it over the ear to make it stand up again.
[18:20] * Cloudy_Breeze is satisfied for the moment with the van's ability to work. She gets in to give it a test start.
[18:21] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  The van starts with the same rattles, squeaks, and scrapes that it always had. The radio comes on, playing some somber song about "The End of the World."
[18:22] <Wraith> "Well that's something at least."
[18:23] * Strifer leans back again. Damn whatever that doctor had done it worked fairly well. No voices, no freakouts and best of all, no shakes.
[18:25] * Cloudy_Breeze calls out, "Strap yerselves in everypony, time to get goin'!"
[18:26] * Challenger sits down next to the door.
[18:26] * Desert_Eagle rests his rifle against the dash. "Hit it Breezy!"
[18:29] * Wraith is already as strapped in as she can get in the back of a mail delivery truck with no seating or straps of any kind.
[18:29] * Cloudy_Breeze nods, and gets the van moving on to Sniper's Squatter
[18:29] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  As the car trundles down the stretch of the Long 15, Easy Listening comes on to deliver another news segment. "Good evening, fillies and gentlecolts. That was Sweetie Belle, telling us about what the end of the world was like for her. Probably, anyway. This just in, reports from the area around Shimmer lake have reported seeing weird lights in the sky, and some spooky noises coming from the rolling fog banks in the n
[18:30] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  "... banks in the north."
[18:31] <Challenger> "Of course there's weird shit happening where we're going..."
[18:32] <Wraith> "Bluh bluh always is."
[18:32] <Desert_Eagle> "Yep, an' apparently we've got th' Talons, raiders, an' an alicorn on our tails too."
[18:32] * Wraith mumbles something about a literal ghost town
[18:32] <Challenger> "Alicorn? Fucking great."
[18:32] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  "And speaking of Shimmer Lake, that bio-whatever I talked about the other day? Says he's seeing more and more cases of what he calls 'Shimmer Syndrome.' If you, or anypony you know has come into contact with the water in the lake, seek treatment immediately. Or at least that's what Mud Puddle told me."
[18:33] <Wraith> "Don't drink the water. Got it."
[18:33] <Strifer> "Myeah.. Always something going on, huh.. Shimmer whatnows?"
[18:34] * Lollygag just huddles up in her seat, staring at the box.
[18:35] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  Easy listening concludes his report with a SUPER important public service announcement about regular weapon maintenance. He then introduces a Flank Sinatra tune, "My Kind of Town." The ride is pretty smooth, and the group arrives back at Sniper's Squatter in an hour or so.
[18:39] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  Feldspar is waiting for the truck as it arrives at the north gate of the small settlement. With a smile, he guides the truck in and approaches the driver's side door. "How'd it go. Get the package?"
[18:39] <Strifer> "... and then I took that last changeling and fucked..  Oh, yeah. Right there, whatever the fuck it is."
[18:39] * Strifer waves a hoof at the box.
[18:40] * Cloudy_Breeze gestures toward the back as she hops down. "There was a bit of a problem, though."
[18:40] * Challenger starts to unload the package. "Here's your mysterious package that we don't know what's inside it."
[18:41] <Strifer> "A big box of dildos, no doubt whatsoever."
[18:41] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  Feldspar nods, but looks at Breezy questioningly. A pair of armored stallions help Challenger unload the box. "If you must know... It's a washing machine."
[18:42] <Challenger> "Yeah we know."
[18:42] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  "And what kind of problem are we talking about."
[18:42] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  ?
[18:42] * Cloudy_Breeze frowns. "Somethin' was... pretendin' to be you. They attacked us as we were makin' the exchange."
[18:43] <Wraith> "Chanelings" Wraith pipes up
[18:43] * Strifer walks up to Feldspar and Breeze. "The stomping some fucking heads kind..." She glances back at Challenger. "Ill be at the clinic." Before waltzing of in its general direction.
[18:44] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  The older buck blinks hard. "Pretendng to- Changelings." He says, nodding ar Wraith. "Yep, that explains it. Sorry about that. No one got hurt too badly, though?" Feldspar gives Strifer a slight nod as she passes. Berry is outside the medical tent, having a smoke.
[18:44] <Wraith> "They did."
[18:44] <Wraith> "And two raiders died."
[18:45] <Wraith> "But who gives a fuck about raiders."
[18:45] * Strifer trotts right up to Berry. "Hey."
[18:45] <Wraith> "They're like cockroaches who breed like bunnies."
[18:47] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  Feldspar gives a faint smile. He looks the Override harness and hmmms. "Suit is working okay?" Berry lets out a long puff from her cigarette. "Well, you made it back in one piece. That's good."
[18:48] <Wraith> "I'm still walking, which is a change. But there's this irritating itch along my spine."
[18:49] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  The stallion rubs his neck. "Yeah... well, that's apparently supposed to happen. But it's good that it's holding up."
[18:49] * Strifer snickers and scratches a forehoof with a claw. "Well.. Yeah, eh, you know that shit you gave me. Fixer, right? You got anymore of that stuff, cause. Yanno, I don't want to go crazy and kill all my friends and then wake up to having their maimed bodies all around me." She says with a grin.  "And that shit kinda helps, a little."
[18:49] <Wraith> "The itch is supposed to happen?"
[18:50] * Cloudy_Breeze nods. "Aside from that, yer job went off without a hitch.
[18:51] * Lollygag slumps over in her seat. Oh, a washing machine huh? Good thing she didn't look, that would have been even more disappointing than the last one...
[18:51] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  Feldspar nods and twirls a hoof. "Yeah, Berry said something about the suit integrating with your spine." He smiles again at Breezy again. "Great. Pull the truck around to the garage and we'll take a look at it. Your team need anything else?" Elsewhere, Challenger and the two stallions with the washing machine trot towards the mess hall.
[18:52] <Wraith> "Integra-...Like melding or taking control of my Central nervous system?"
[18:53] * Challenger is totally pushing a washing machine.
[18:53] <Challenger> was*
[18:54] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  The doctor nods slowly. "Yeah, we have some more. Unfortunately, I can't go giving it out for free, since we get all sorts of addicts passing through here. 15 caps per dose." Feldspar has no idea and shrugs his shoulders. "I... don't know. Probably not, but... maybe you should ask Berry."
[18:54] * Cloudy_Breeze "Other than the payment, ah'd like to ask if ya know where ah can find a workbench around here?"
[18:55] * Wraith grumbles "Just what I need. A suit that controls me instead of the other way around.
[18:55] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  Right, and two bucks came to help move it to the Mess Hall, where it belongs. Feldpar points over his shoulder to the half-cylindrical building behind him. "Right through there. Just knock before you head in."
[18:56] * Strifer snorts, digging through her saddlebags, comming up empty hoofed. "Well.. Shit." She frowns slightly. "No caps. Ugh." She slumps a little, giving Berry a smirk before trotting back to the car.
[18:56] <Challenger> "So... why is a washing machine going to the local eatery?"
[18:57] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  Berry hmmmms. "Well, I could think of a few things you could do to get some." One of the bucks smiles at Challenger. "Chocolate Shake needs it to wash towels, but this is where all the laundry goes anyway."
[18:58] * Strifer turns and moves back to Berry. "Oh? Like.. How?"
[18:58] * Challenger nods. "Seems legit."
[18:59] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  Berry smirks. "Step into my office."
[19:00] * Strifer smirks back. "Alright.." She nickers and trotts inside the clinic.
[19:01] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  The stallions push open the back door to the mess hall, where carts of laundry are stacked neatly in a row. A muddy brown Unicorn in a dirty apron looks up at the trio and gasps. "Oh sweet-fucking Celestia. My washing machine. Holy shit... It's... beautiful..."
[19:02] <Challenger> "Yeah yeah. Miracle of technology n whatnot."
[19:03] * Cloudy_Breeze eyes Feldspar for a bit, before heading into the indicated building to make use of the workbench.
[19:04] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  The unicorn stallion smiles, but blinks at Challenger. "Hey... you look... familiar." He says, scratching his head with a Pipbuck-sporting hoof.
[19:04] <Wraith> "I think I'm gonna go roll around on the cot I've been sleeping in."
[19:05] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  A circular saw seems to be running inside the building Breezy approaches. The door is closed, and the windows blacked.
[19:07] * Wraith prances off towards the little...hut...abode...whateverthefuck to flop down on her cot.
[19:08] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  It's a cabin. The suit doesn't seem to support flopping, and locks up when Wraith hits the bed.
[19:08] <Wraith> "FUCK MY LIFE."
[19:10] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  Once inside the building, Cloudy_Breeze can see Zemblanity, the snipermare from the bar, sitting at a workbench with a large, metal thing in her hooves. She looks very startled at her unexpected guest. "Gw-Gah! Wh-Who are you?"
[19:11] * Lollygag closes her eyes as she lies down on bench inside the car, drifting off.
[19:12] * Cloudy_Breeze gives a questioning look. "Feldspar said there was a bench in here ah could use. Ah've got some work ah need to do on my rig, here." She indicates the saddle she's wearing.
[19:14] <Challenger> "How do I look familiar?"
[19:15] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  The unicorn quickly hides whatever she was working on and turns to face Breezy. "Ooooh. It's you. You scared the daylights out of me. And... that thing does look... very, very gaudy..." The cook, presumably Chocolate Shake, fiddles with his Pipbuck for a moment, but sighs. "Sorry... Guess I got a little worked up over nothing. You've got one of those faces, I guess."
[19:17] <Challenger> "What do you mean, one of those faces?
[19:17] <Challenger> "
[19:17] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  The cook facehoofs and lets out another heavy sigh. "I mean... just... look. You just look like some buck I knew once, okay? Sorry. Don't mean anything by it."
[19:19] * Challenger shrugs. "Right. Anyway. So what's your specialty here?"
[19:21] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  The cook points at the kitchen behind him and sighs. "I'm the cook here. Although... there's not much actual cooking to be done around here. It's just 'Put MRE in hot water and serve'. Waste of my damn time."
[19:22] * Cloudy_Breeze gives a curious look. "Uh... what's that yer workin' on?"
[19:22] <Challenger> "Hey, don't knock MREs. Save your life on occasion."
[19:24] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  The snipermare shakes her head. "Oh, nothing. Just a silly little project. Just... do what you need and leave, if you please." Chocolate Shake smiles a little. "So you've had it before, eh? Soldier? Pilot? Or just a lucky scavenger?"
[19:24] <Challenger> "Steel Ranger. Former."
[19:25] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  Chocolate Shake deadpans. "No shit..." He hides his Pipbuck and backs up into the kitchen. "Right, cool. See you later. Go away. Thanks. Bye." He says, quickly slamming the door.
[19:26] * Challenger blinks. "Yeah... you too." He turns and walks back to the med center. "Crazy ass pony..."
[19:27] * Cloudy_Breeze nods and takes off her saddle, setting it on the workbench. She gets to work making her modifications!
[19:28] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  Challenger can hear some... very familiar grunts and other lewd noises coming from inside the medical tent.
[19:28] * Challenger shakes his head and moves on.
[19:30] * Wraith would wiggle out of boredom...but can't even do that.
[19:32] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  Lollygag is awakened by the gentle nudge of a mechanic. "Hey kid. I'm gonna have to ask you to get up. it's time we fixed this rust-bucket. Okay?"
[19:34] * Challenger decides the best place for him is back near the van.
[19:34] * Challenger has nothing better to do.
[19:35] * Lollygag sniffs softly and blinks up at the mechanic. It takes her a few moments to figure out what they'd said, but she nods slowly, "Oh... alright... sorry." She gets up groggily and slides off the bench, then out of the back of the car.
[19:37] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  The mechanic nods as a team of ponies descend on the truck, tearing the perforated walls from the  cargo hold and gutting the engine.
[19:38] * Challenger watches with apathetic disinterest.
[19:40] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  Darkness approaches quickly, and soon, the mechanics retire. The truck is mostly complete, and will likely be finished in the morning.
[19:40] * Lollygag half-trots, half-stumbles her way back to the cabins, she doesn't even notice that she doesn't go into the same one where she'd been staying before.
[19:41] * Wraith lays uncomfortably with her legs sticking out at awkward angles
[19:41] * Challenger wanders the town aimlessly.
[19:44] * Cloudy_Breeze works long into the night. It takes twice as long as it should have. When she finally finishes, she re-dons her saddle and heads off to sleep.
[19:50] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  Eventually, the group finds places to sleep about camp. Desert_Eagle, who was -totally- conscious the entire time, fell asleep in a booth in the bar. The next morning, the bugle call wakes everypony up at the crack of... well... what is probably dawn.
[19:54] * Cloudy_Breeze groans. She didn't get all that much sleep, considering how long she had to stay awake.
[19:55] * Wraith is still frozen in place. she's honestly starting to get quite stiff and has been cramping for the past several hours
[19:57] * Lollygag flops her legs back to the floor after being startled awake by the bugle again. She looks around slowly, blinking the sleep away and trying to remember just where she was, and how long she'd been out.
[19:58] * Challenger isn't in the mood for sleep.
[20:00] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  Lollygag awakens to see a pony slipping into a suit of combat armor. Upon closer inspection, it's Feldspar. He does a double take and blinks hard. "Ms. Lollygag? Where's Berry?"
[20:02] * Cloudy_Breeze gets up, reluctantly. She heads outside to find out what was making that Celestia-damned noise.
[20:04] * Desert_Eagle groans, lifting his head with a groan. "Fuck. Hangovers suck."
[20:04] * Lollygag looks up at the slightly blurry Feldspar, her coat cold and damp against the flooring, "Y-yes? Oh... I... don't know, sorry."
[20:04] * Challenger is still wandering aimlessly.
[20:05] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  The buck adjusts his beret and smiles gently. "Well... I... uh... huh. Let's just sort of... forget this every happened. You don't look so good. Do you want something to eat, or drink?"
[20:06] * Desert_Eagle comes stumbling out of the bar, slipping on his Aviators.
[20:08] * Lollygag very carefully gets to her hooves, looking down, she fidgets and blushes a bit, "S-sure, I'm sorry... I... I just wasn't paying attention to the cabins... I'll be f-fine, really. Thank you though."
[20:10] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  The buck opens the door for Lolly and shakes his head. Ponies these days.
[20:12] * Strifer gives Berry a playfull nibble before rolling out of bed.
[20:13] * Lollygag bows her head to him as she awkwardly trots out of the cabin.
[20:13] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  The doctor lights up her morning cigarette. "Four doses of Fixer, by the door. Try not to OD on that." She says, pointing to the tent flap.
[20:14] * Strifer nickers and smirks at the doctor. "Don't worry, I wont.. But I might be back for more." She leaves the tent with a grin o nher face. Picking up the fixer on the way out.
[20:16] * Challenger somehow ends up at the van. It's still not finished.
[20:17] * Desert_Eagle stumbles up to Challenger. "Remind me next time before I get wasted. Hangovers suck." He mutters, looking over at the van.
[20:17] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  Berry chuckles lightly. "Take care." Cloudy_Breeze can spot the bugle-buck in one of the watch-towers by the southern gate. A few mechanics show up after Challenger arrives. One gives a friendly, "Good morning" and they get to work on repairing the walls. One cuts a hole in the roof with a saw.
[20:18] * Strifer makes her way back to the van aswell. Giving the others a hoofwave before sitting down next to it and devouring a can of cram. Mmmm cram.
[20:18] * Challenger nods at the mechanic.
[20:19] * Desert_Eagle flops down next to it, head in hooves.
[20:19] <Challenger> "Yo."
[20:19] * Cloudy_Breeze eyes the bugle-buck in annoyance. She heads off to see if she can sell her old guns.
[20:20] * Strifer snickers and pats Deagles back. "Too much to drink last night!"
[20:20] <Strifer> ?!*
[20:20] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  The trading post is open and busy. Breezy could easily sell her guns there.
[20:20] * Desert_Eagle winces. "...Eeyup."
[20:21] * Challenger stands and trots off. "I'm getting breakfast."
[20:21] * Cloudy_Breeze heads inide the trading post!
[20:23] * EDtiGron ([email protected]) has joined #FruityRumpusAssholeFactory
[20:23] * Lollygag makes her way slowly through the base, looking for her companions.
[20:23] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  Chalk Dust, the ammo vendor smiles at Breezy. "Ah, a friend of a friend. Here to buy munitions?"
[20:24] * Strifer smirks and jabs a IV needle into her leg. One dose should keep her going for yet another while. Right? "Well, anyway. Nice shootin yesterday. Fuck I was afraid you'd take my head off with that shot."
[20:25] * Challenger ([email protected]) Quit ( Ping timeout: 121 seconds )
[20:25] * Desert_Eagle shrugs. "Ah hit what ah'm aimin' for."
[20:26] * Wraith ([email protected]) Quit ( Connection closed )
[20:26] * Lollygag eventually just stops by one of the trash bins, giving it a casual glance before sitting down next to it gingerly and pulling a snack cake and a water from her pack, and delicately consuming them.
[20:27] * Wraith ([email protected]) has joined #FruityRumpusAssholeFactory
[20:27] * Night ([email protected]) has joined #FruityRumpusAssholeFactory
[20:28] * Cloudy_Breeze takes out her old rifle and sets it on the counter, along with her old pistol. "Mostly sell, but ah do need some ammo fer my new setup." She indicates the saddle on her back.
[20:28] * Wraith ([email protected]) has left #FruityRumpusAssholeFactory
[20:29] * Night is now known as Wraith
[20:29] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  Chalk Dust keeps grinning. "Ah, is nice piece! I can give... 175 caps for both."
[20:33] * Cloudy_Breeze eyes Chalk Dust. "Maybe ah'll go take my business someplace where ah ain't gonna get jerked around, then. That's a downright insultin' offer."
[20:34] * Strifer just observes the repairs of thier car as the IV slowly empties.
[20:34] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  The buck straightens andcoughs a little. The other traders look at Breezy expectantly. "F-Fine, fine! 300 caps!"
[20:38] * EDtiGron ([email protected]) Quit ( Quit: Bye )
[20:39] * Cloudy_Breeze hmms in consideration. "Show me what ya got in .308 and 5mm."
[20:43] * Cloudy_Breeze adds her own leftover 9mm and .32 ammo to her offer. "Ah'll take all ya got."
[20:44] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  The buck nods and hoofs over the caps and bullets. "Perfect! I'm sure we'll be doing this again soon!"
[20:46] * Lollygag finally finishes her meal. With a satisfied sigh, she stands up and tosses the refuse into the bin before stretching slowly. Having not seen any of the other ponies yet, she decides to head back to the cabins and check to see if they're there.
[20:46] * Cloudy_Breeze gives him an appraising look. "...We'll see." She takes her caps and purchased ammo, and heads outside.
[20:48] * Challenger ([email protected]) has joined #FruityRumpusAssholeFactory
[20:50] * Strifer is still chillin next to the car. Pretty docile after last nights adventure.
[20:50] * Challenger arrives at the mess tent.
[20:51] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  The mechanics have finally finished putting the finishing touches on the package car. The back of the truck has been outfitted with a very comfortable row of seats and seatbelts. A work bench is attached to the wall, and can fold out for easy use. A hatch has been attached to the roof of the truck, and only opens from the inside. The tires are changed, and the paint touched up. The "Dinky's Deliveries" livery shines
[20:52] * Wraith is still in her and Lollygag's cabin. That isn't a thing that has changed. mostly because Wraith has no control over that.
[20:53] * Strifer decides to check out the interior. Ohh, this is exciting. Leather seats perhaps?
[20:53] * Desert_Eagle checks out the van with Strifer.
[20:53] * Challenger realizes he doesn't have money, so just sits at a table and opens aa can of carrots.
[20:53] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  Leather seats indeed. Scratch proof, too.
[20:54] * Cloudy_Breeze heads to where the van should be to check on its progress.
[20:54] * Lollygag makes her way back to her cabin and opens the door to look around. She sees Wraith and tips her head slight, "Um... Wraith?"
[20:54] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  Cloudy_Breeze would be no doubt surprised at the swanky Swag-mobile that once was the package car.
[20:54] * Desert_Eagle whistles, then grimances. Hangover. Bad idea. "Pretty nice..."
[20:54] <Wraith> "Lolly?"
[20:55] * Desert_Eagle pushes open the top hatch, seeing how wide it was.
[20:55] * Strifer sits down in one hte them seats. "Woah. Look at all this fancy shit, totaly worth busting some heads for, eh?"
[20:55] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  Desert_Eagle can easily fit through the hatch. A mount for a weapon has been installed on the top, so it seems.
[20:56] <Wraith> "Could you help me out of this thing? I've been like this pretty much since we got back. I can't move."
[20:56] <Wraith> "Half...well I guess my entire body, is cramped"
[20:57] * Desert_Eagle grins. The mount just screamed 'Mount a .50 here.' He ducks back inside, looking into the driver's area next.
[20:59] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  The driver's cabin has been upgraded too! A dashboard mounted radio gleams in the light. A small gem glows softly at the top of the dash, seemingly powering something inside the engine.
[20:59] * Lollygag goes wide eyed, trotting hurriedly up to Wraith before she can calm down, "Do... do you know how to take it off?"
[20:59] * Cloudy_Breeze is pretty impressed. She looks the van over, nodding in satisfaction.
[20:59] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  And, a road map of Manetana has been attached to the passenger side dash.
[21:00] <Wraith> "I think you hit the gem on my chest but I couldn't hit it and there wasn't anything heavy enough in my field of view
[21:00] * Desert_Eagle grins, sliding open the passenger door and hopping out. He nods to Breezy. "They did a damn fine job with it, if ah do say so muhself."
[21:04] * Lollygag nods and looks for the gem in question, pressing down on it firmly.
[21:04] * Cloudy_Breeze nods. "Look's real nice."
[21:05] * Wraith summons the LesbianTimepony|GM to describe this shit
[21:05] * Challenger eats his boring carrots in the boring mess tent in silence, then leaves.
[21:06] <Strifer> "Looks fucking sweet, hell, we can just live in this car from now on."
[21:06] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  The gem blinks twice and the suit unlocks itself. That was cool.
[21:07] * Wraith 's limbs are to stiff to move but she does sigh in relief and wiggle her legs a bit "Thaaaaaaank you. I'd kiss you, but I still seem to be too stiff to move."
[21:08] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  Challenger's carrots are very boring. Feldspar notices the bored looking buck on his way to the garage and smiles. "Hey there. You look... terrible."
[21:08] <Challenger> "Didn't sleep last night.
[21:08] <Challenger> "
[21:09] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  He nods sagely. "Ah, yep. That'll do it. Why not? Just didn't feel like it?"
[21:10] * Lollygag smiles softly, "Well I'm glad I could help... Sorry I didn't get here sooner... I kinda... passed out... in the wrong cabin."
[21:11] <Challenger> "I spent a week in a coma due to a combination of being shot full of holes and an over-zealous slaver deciding I might get back up after they captured me and (quite possibly) dunking my head in a vat of chloroform to keep me asleep. I think I slept enough."
[21:12] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  The buck blinks hard and shakes his head a few times, as if shaking off cobwebs. "Well shit. That's... pretty... That's a hell of a story."
[21:13] * Wraith snorts "That the plan I had. Well less passing out in the wrong cabin and more just passing out. But apparently flopping locks this thing up." Her limbs are slowly loosening, much to her relief "To be honest I don't want to wear this more than I have to. I don't trust it. Apparently it's doing something to my spine, possibly my central nervous system."
[21:13] * Challenger nods. "Truth is stranger than fiction, ain't it?"
[21:15] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  The buck chuckles and trots with Challenger to the truck. "Guess it is... Anyway, you should come take a look at your truck. I think you'll like what we did with it."
[21:16] * Cloudy_Breeze glances over to Strifer, and as a second thought, takes out her old armor and tosses it to Strifer. "Here, ya look like you could use it."
[21:17] * Lollygag shakes her head slowly, "That seems like a serious design flaw... What if somepony wearing it had to dive for cover or something..." She sighs softly, "Well I don't blame you for not wanting to wear it. Do you want me to go get the others so they can carry you out?"
[21:17] * Desert_Eagle has opened the hatch again, and is examining the weapon mount on the top of the van.
[21:17] <Wraith> "It'd probably be better honestly. Only wear this for emergencies, like fighting."
[21:18] * Challenger walks around the truck. "Not bad. Not bad at all."
[21:18] * Strifer oofs as she gets a armor in the face. "Hey what the f- Oh.. Hey, this one looks pretty cool!" She spends the next couple of minutes to wiggle into the barding, frowning at the two wierd holes on the back made for a winged pone.
[21:19] * Desert_Eagle taps the mound. "Hey Chal, think we c'n get ahold o' a .50 soon?" He grins.
[21:19] <Desert_Eagle> mount*]
[21:19] * Strifer shrugging. "Ey, thanks. The old one was getting pretty shit anyway." She pokes a hoof at the old "barding."
[21:19] <Challenger> "Soon as we find one."
[21:20] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  Feldspar chuckles. "Well, I know a place you could get one."
[21:20] <Challenger> "I'm all ears."
[21:20] * Cloudy_Breeze grins. "Ah noticed." She takes it in exchange. Might as well hold onto it to sell or something.
[21:23] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  The buck points to the road map on the dash. "Riiiiight here. Gullywash. There's a huge pre-war munitions factory down there. I'd bet my good lung that there's a decent .50 there."
[21:23] <Challenger> "Up for some scrounging, D?"
[21:24] * Desert_Eagle nods. "Hell yeah!"
[21:24] * Lollygag nods, "Yeah, that sounds like a good idea. I'll have them over for you in just a few." She waits for Wraith's affirmative before heading out of the cabin and back towards where she thought she remembered the car being.
[21:24] * Wraith nods "Kay. Don't take long~"
[21:25] * Wraith finally gets her legs into a normal position and sighs "Oh thank the goddess."
[21:25] <Challenger> "Let's go home then. I'm gonna go find Lolly and Wraith." Trots off to find said mares.
[21:26] * Desert_Eagle grins, ducking back down and pulling the hatch closed behind him. He trots out, leaning against the side to wait. As he did, he looked to see if there had been any armor plating added to the van.
[21:27] <~LesbianTimepony|GM>  Feldspar gives the all of them a salute. "Take care, you bunch. If you ever need this thing fixed again, feel free to stop by." Desert_Eagle notices that the walls of the van are significantly thicker than before.
[21:28] * Lollygag makes her way over towards the maintenance building. When she sees Challenger, she waves a hoof and calls out to him, telling him what she knows about Wraith's current condition.
[21:28] * Challenger nods. "So she's okay now right?"
[21:32] * Lollygag nods a little, "I think so... but it's probably best if she spends as little time in that suit as possible... I'll meet you back at the garage, alright?"
[21:33] <Challenger> "Sure. We're getting ready to leave though. Feldspar gave us a line on a gun for the van's turret mounting."
[21:33] * Desert_Eagle taps the sides, nodding satisfactorily.
[21:34] * Strifer is just enjoying the leather seats for the moment.
[21:35] * Lollygag smiles a little, "Well that should be very helpful. I won't be long, don't worry." She takes off at an easy pace, taking a roundabout path back to the garage so she can look through the camp for anything worthwhile.
[21:36] * LesbianTimepony|GM ([email protected]) Quit ( Quit: See you ! )
[21:37] * SpencerDespenser|GM ([email protected]) has joined #FruityRumpusAssholeFactory
[21:37] * ChanServ sets mode +qo SpencerDespenser|GM SpencerDespenser|GM for #FruityRumpusAssholeFactory
[21:38] * Challenger trots to Wraith's room and knocks. "Wraith, you decent?"
[21:39] <Wraith> "I'm naked but I don't have any dildos or irradiated elongated vegetables shoved in me if that's what you're asking."
[21:40] * Challenger enters. "Yes. That's exactly what I was asking. You figured it out."
[21:42] * Wraith waggles a hindleg in greeting "Hello~ Come to sweep me off my hooves?"
[21:43] <Challenger> "Well considering you're not wearing your hooves, shouldn't be too hard."
[21:43] * Wraith smirks "Are you calling me easy?"
[21:43] * Challenger smirks. "Again you find me out so easily."
[21:44] * Lollygag groans as her search only produces two sprigs of red herb. She tucks them into her pack muttering about how useless they are. As she's sighing and buckling her pack shut, she spots a four leaf clover tucked in under some of the dead leaves, which she picks and adds to her packs as well.
[21:45] <Wraith> "Bah. You're lucky I'm half-immobile and heinously under-sexed. Now take me away to the land of hard metal floors and irritatingly bouncy roads. At least that's where I assume we're heading."
[21:45] * Cloudy_Breeze sits in the driver's seat and fiddles with the radio.
[21:46] * Strifer ponders if she should decorate her new barding with blood or not. Gotta think of the estethics you know.
[21:47] <Challenger> "Well we are going to bouncy roads, but I'm going to have to disappoint you on the hard metal floors bit."
[21:48] <Wraith> "Oh?"
[21:48] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  The radio get surprisingly good reception. It picks up KGEZ and Mother's Radio with crystal clarity.
[21:49] * Desert_Eagle lounges in the passenger seat, contemplating if there was a way to fasten a swivel mount to the passenger door, on the window.
[21:49] <Challenger> "Yep. Fraid you'll have to make due with comfy padded leather."
[21:49] * Cloudy_Breeze nods in satisfaction.
[21:49] <Wraith> "Damn it all." She sighs "The sacrifices I make."
[21:50] <Challenger> "Yes yes, bear your burden for all to see. You okay to travel?"
[21:51] <Wraith> "More or less. Still need to work some kinks out but I can do that on the road. Hopefully we don't run into anything that requires me to wear the suit."
[21:51] <Challenger> "That I can't promise. Lolly says you shouldn't wear it so much, so how about a lift to your chariot?"
[21:52] <Wraith> "That sounds quite pleasing to me."
[21:53] * Wraith had already taken advantage of her newfound unrestraint to pack her suit up in her bags with telekinesis
[21:53] * Challenger nods and carefully puts Wraith on his back when she's ready, then trots gently out the door toward the van.
[21:55] * Wraith holds on with her good leg "Still could get used to this."
[21:56] * Challenger chuckles. "Well you're not a washing machine or a fridge."
[21:56] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  The truck is looking fine. Shiny new paint, new tires, and an upgraded interior. It is swag-tastic!
[21:57] <Wraith> "Nope. I'm more compact. And easily stowable in overhead bins."
[21:58] * Lollygag blinks a little at the car as she finally makes her way to the garage, "Woah... shiney..."
[21:58] <Challenger> "Very unlike a washing machine. There it is." They come into view of the van. All the pimpin glory.
[21:58] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  There are a pair of overhead bins, above the seats.
[21:59] * Wraith pokes her head up above Challenger's so she can see things other than the back of his head and lets out a little whistle "Damn. That thing looks brand fucking new."
[21:59] * Desert_Eagle ([email protected]) Quit ( Connection closed )
[21:59] * Desert_Eagle ([email protected]) has joined #FruityRumpusAssholeFactory
[22:00] <Challenger> "Yup. Even has a turret on the roof. We're going gun shopping next."
[22:00] * Desert_Eagle is now known as Pony_17967
[22:00] <Wraith> "Kay."
[22:01] * Challenger trots over to the van. "Look what I found in Wraith's bed. Can I keep it?"
[22:02] * Pony_17967 is now known as Deagle
[22:04] * Lollygag climbs carefully up into the back of the car, looking over the new interior before taking her seat.
[22:04] * Cloudy_Breeze glances over toward Challenger. "I dunno. Are ya gonna feed it and walk it every day?"
[22:04] <Challenger> "Don't need to walk it. No legs, see?"
[22:05] * Cloudy_Breeze rolls her eyes, grinning. "Sure, but yer the one who's gotta clean up after it if it makes a mess of the new leather seats."
[22:06] * Challenger glances back at Wraith. "Hear that? No biting the fabric."
[22:06] * Strifer snickers and barks at Wraith.
[22:07] * Deagle is now known as Desert_Eagle
[22:07] * Desert_Eagle chuckles.
[22:07] <Wraith> "All I heard was 'bit the fabric'."
[22:07] <Wraith> bite*
[22:08] * Desert_Eagle rolls his eyes. "Le's jus' getta move on."
[22:08] * Lollygag eye twitches slightly at the bark and the conversation, busying herself with trying to figure out how to work the new seatbelts
[22:08] * Challenger gently get's Wraith on board and in a seat, then takes one himself.
[22:09] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  The seats practically conform to your butts. They are insanely comfortable.
[22:09] * Wraith is set in a seat "Thaaaanks Chall~" She figures out how to work her seatbelt and possibly helps Lollygag
[22:11] * Challenger seatbelts in. "Yup."
[22:13] * Lollygag smiles gently at Wraith, "Thank you."
[22:14] * Desert_Eagle sits up, nodding to Breezy. "Ah think we're all ready now."
[22:14] * Strifer equips furrycoat!
[22:15] * Wraith equips furrycoatblanket!
[22:16] * Challenger dons his warm weather gear of warming.
[22:16] * Cloudy_Breeze nods, and starts her up! Time to get on the road!
[22:17] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  The truck heads off, back up the Long 15 north. Pain Spike is waiting at the gate to Shattered Hoof Hill, waving as they drive past.
[22:18] <Challenger> "So, next stop, Gullywash. We're probably gonna need that fifty."
[22:18] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  Well, the truck probably doesn't do that, if they're going to Gullywash, then.
[22:18] * Desert_Eagle racks the charging handle on his Carbine, leaning it against the dash and settleing in.
[22:18] <Strifer> "Gullywherenow? I thought we'd be visiting the griffins?"
[22:19] <Challenger> "Have you ever met griffons? More specifically, have you ever fought Griffons?"
[22:19] * Strifer opens her mouth to answer that, closing it abruptly then rubbing her chin with a claw. "You know what.. I have no fucking idea, why?"
[22:21] <Challenger> "They're fans of rapid assaults from the air and they like to get in close and fight dirty. The have beaks and claws and wing blades most of the time. Trust me. If we piss them off, we need a way to fill the air with lead and keep them back."
[22:22] <Wraith> "How about we don't piss them off then." Then she thinks about Strifer and just stifles a laugh. She doesn't see this ending well~
[22:22] <Challenger> "My point exactly. We need the hardware."
[22:23] <Strifer> "...right, don't piss of the chickens. Gotcha."
[22:23] * Lollygag sighs and shakes her head, "So where in the Everfree's back 90 are we going?"
[22:27] <Challenger> "Gullywash."
[22:29] * Lollygag waggles her hooves, doing her absolute worst accent, "Ahm na from rand hear."
[22:29] * Wraith snerks
[22:29] * Cloudy_Breeze chuckles at that.
[22:30] <Lollygag> "Is there a map?"
[22:30] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  There is a roadmap of Manetana stapled to the passenger's side dash.
[22:30] * Cloudy_Breeze taps the dashboard on Desert_Eagle's side. "Up here."
[22:31] * Desert_Eagle also has a map on his fancy-smancy PipBuck.
[22:33] * Lollygag unfastens her seat belt and carefully slides off her seat, making her way forward to look into the driving compartment, "So... where are we going on the map?"
[22:34] * Desert_Eagle indicates Gullywash with his hoof. "Gullywash Miss Lolly."
[22:35] <Challenger> "Yeah, it's way south of us."
[22:35] <Challenger> "But hey! We've got a van. Won't take long at all."
[22:36] * Lollygag frowns a little as she stares at the map, "Desert... that place... Grapevine marked on your Pipbuck for me... where was that?"
[22:37] * Desert_Eagle looks at his map. "That Stable? Right next t' Gullywash, actually." He looks up at Lollygag. "Yah wanna stop by there 'r somethin'?"
[22:39] * Lollygag nods slowly, "It's so close... it would really be a big opportunity missed to not at least check it out..."
[22:40] * Desert_Eagle nods. "Well, we c'n always swing by there an' take a look."
[22:40] <Desert_Eagle> "Ain't outta th' way at all really."
[22:40] <Challenger> "Sounds like a pllan then eh?"
[22:40] * Strifer waves a hoof at Chall. "Hey, Tincan, think I should get more spikes in this armor or something?" She pokes it. "Its a bit.. Weak looking right now, dontcha think?"
[22:41] * Cloudy_Breeze nods. "Sounds like a good plan to me."
[22:41] * Desert_Eagle nods. "Grab a .50, check outta Stable, get th' hell outta dodge. Sounds pretty solid t' me."
[22:41] <Challenger> "Planning on going Raider on me?"
[22:43] * Lollygag nods back, "Alright then." She then makes her way back to her seat, carefully climbing onto it.
[22:43] * Strifer blinks and then snorts. "'course not, but if I tackle somepony, it gotta fucking sting you know!" She waves a hoof dissmissively. "Raiders are way to fucked up."
[22:45] <Challenger> "Fine, get some spikes... sheesh."
[22:46] * Cloudy_Breeze changes course for the area south on the map. Time to pick up a gun.
[22:46] * Wraith smiles at Lollygag as she returns to her seat. She's kind of half dozing. He sleep last night wasn't exactly comfortable. this is like a 5 star spa to her right now
[22:47] * Strifer grins and keeps fiddling with her armor
[22:48] * Lollygag smiles back to Wraith
[22:48] * Desert_Eagle puts his back hooves on the dash, carbine resting on his lap, and his front hooves behind his head.
[22:51] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  The majority of Sniper's Squatter is there to see them off... again. The ride passes mostly without incident, till Desert_Eagle, Cloudy_Breeze, and Challenger hear a strange sound. Cloudy_Breeze recognizes it almost instantly as the whirring of rotor blades.
[22:51] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  *** Session 23 Ends. ***
