  1. [16:30] <TenMihara|GM> *****PnP Group 13, Hoofinton Sucks: Session 34*****
  2. [16:30] <TenMihara|GM> Expectations
  3. [16:30] <TenMihara|GM> Predetermined viewpoints about the way things should or shouldn't be
  4. [16:30] <TenMihara|GM> Or sometimes, a belief that things are meant to turn out a certain way.
  5. [16:31] <TenMihara|GM> The wasteland has a nasty habit of discarding good expectations, and living up to all the bad ones.
  6. [16:31] <TenMihara|GM> Especially in Hoofington.
  7. [16:34] <TenMihara|GM> What else can you expect from the wasteland's biggest death trap?
  8. [16:34] <TenMihara|GM> Sometimes though, the wasteland can surprise you.
  9. [16:34] <TenMihara|GM> What does our party of wastelanders expect?
  10. [16:34] <TenMihara|GM> Will their expectations be dashed or demonstrated?
  11. [16:34] <TenMihara|GM> I guess we'll find out...
  12. [16:35] <TenMihara|GM> *****Begin Session*****
  13. [16:39] * Rime stops lining up the box under the bed and pulls it back out. She really can't trust those horny kids not to sneak away with Razor's new toy. She pulls it back out and trots over to Razor. "Here, I cleaned all the skank stank off it. I don't think we can trust the grabflanks not to get it dirty again. You should hold on to it."
  14. [16:40] * Fridge finishes up. "So, east, then?"
  15. [16:42] <Green_Field> "Yes, let's get out of this trash dump."
  16. [16:43] * Razor gives Rime an odd look. "Uhh... thanks?" She takes it and puts it away. She's not about to argue with the filly, that's a dead-end if she ever saw one.
  17. [16:45] * Proverb is still redder than a fire engine... whatever the hell that was. She hops off of Harmony's back. "Uhm... yeah... l-let's go."
  18. [16:45] * Rime clammors up to Razor's back. She's just a bit wobbly from the beer, but it'll pass. She lights a cigarette after getting well situated on her withers.
  19. [16:45] * Harmony shrugs. She's slightly disappointed that she didn't get a new toy, but she wasn't planning on stealing it... yet. She nuzzles Proverb, heading out of the room.
  20. [16:48] * Proverb nuzzles Harmony back, trotting after her.
  21. [16:48] * Green_Field quickly departs finding the action of the others odd, he never would have though Harmony would be so forward about wanting that "toy" or that anyone would try so hard to defend someelse keeping it does doesn't even seem to want it.
  22. [16:49] <Green_Field> That doesn't*
  23. [16:49] * Razor follows the others out.
  24. [16:51] * Rime blows lazy smoke-rings from her perch, keeping a keen eye out for trouble or stuff... or trouble stuff. Elevated perspective is fucking awesome!
  25. [16:52] * Logic continues on. Eh. It's a dildo. He sees them all the time. Actually, he thinks he can name the brand number if he cared enough to. What matters most now is the plan. "Hey. Does anyone do things with things that explode here?"
  26. [16:54] * Rime plops, dangling off Razor's back to look at Logic. "You serious? I'm like... the Empress of Explosions."
  27. [16:56] * Logic blinks. Synchronicity? Serendipity? Extended pedantic vocabularies are lame. "I need you to lay down some things that go boom. I think we should lay out a trap before just shooting everything."
  28. [16:59] * Rime "Sure, Gatey. A~nything for you." She gives a big mischievious smile.
  29. [17:00] * Rime "Who we pasting? And where are we pasting them at?"
  30. [17:00] * Razor eyes Logic. "You'd better not be thinking of doing that here."
  31. [17:01] * Logic points roughly east. "That place over there with the taintlings. I've got a plan."
  32. [17:01] * Harmony talks to her companions as she walks, "The Flash Fillies and the foals of Chapel would appreciate it if we were to take care of the oozes. I would think that should be our next priority."
  33. [17:04] * Logic folds his forelegs and thinks. "Is it closer than the building to the east?"
  34. [17:05] * Harmony shrugs. "No, but can the taintlings not wait? I cannot imagine the foals of Chapel being able to handle the oozes themselves."
  35. [17:08] * Rime scowls a bit. "Isn't that why you dropped off a whole crate a weapons? That dong-whisperer can handle his own problems."
  36. [17:09] * Harmony rolls her eyes. "If the dong whisperer is capable of handling his own problems, should not you be capable of finding a new home without our help?"
  37. [17:09] <TenMihara|GM> Feelers indicated that the smaller nest of Taintlings he saw was on the eastern side of the -core-, not just to the east. The smooze source would be further from the core, given it's situation to the north, or at least the apparent situation because of the river travel.
  38. [17:11] * Logic tilted his head. "I don't see how the two connect."
  39. [17:11] * Rime huffs a bit of smoke. "I haven't blown up Chapel. I don't owe them shit. I haven't offered them shit. The situation isn't even close to the same."
  40. [17:12] <Proverb> "Seems like you wouldn't mind blowing up Priest though..." She mutters.
  41. [17:12] * Rime gives no denial of that, if she heard it at all.
  42. [17:16] * Razor taps hooves impatiently. "Can we just do something? You can fight each other while we move!"
  43. [17:16] * Logic would object rather heartily, if he heard it at all.
  44. [17:18] * Logic rolls his eyes. "Which way is the most efficient?"
  45. [17:19] * Harmony shrugs. "I still suggest helping the foals of Chapel, but if the rest of you wish to do otherwise..."
  46. [17:23] * Rime takes another drag, the budding argument seemingly averted. She gets a bit more comfy on Razor's withers.
  47. [17:31] * Rime Taintlings, oozes... she gives less fucks than Proverb has eyes. She hasn't experience either first hoof.
  48. [17:32] * Logic frowns and did a little thinking. "Chapel is closer."
  49. [17:33] <Proverb> "Th-then lets go investigate the, the s-smooze-blob-things..."
  50. [17:36] * Logic points roughly north. "Alright." He starts heading back.
  51. [17:38] * Razor keeps tapping a hoof. "Finally! Took long enough..."
  52. [17:42] <TenMihara|GM> On the way out of the Reaper Stadium, the group happens upon Switchpost and X. Switchpost is chatting merrily, while X is resigned to her usual headshakes and nodding.
  53. [17:43] * Proverb shies away from the Reapers a bit, though she liked these two a bit more than the others she'd met, especially Rampage.
  54. [17:44] * Logic waves as he leaves.
  55. [17:44] * Rime has rolled to her back on Razor's back. She blows a smokering and glances over. She doesn't know them, but they look badass enough. She tips her slouch hat.
  56. [17:45] <TenMihara|GM> Switchpost looks up from his one-sided conversation. "Oh hey Razor. Nice fight today. Toxicity figured she'd have you from a distance when we told her she was gonna be your challenge. Of course, she underestimated how tough you were. Guns are great sure, but regular guns can only do so much against armour like yours."
  57. [17:47] * Green_Field mutters something about fight being rigged by the use of the boxes.
  58. [17:48] <TenMihara|GM> X frowns at Green_Field behind her mask.
  59. [17:48] * Razor looks over to Switchpost and grins. "If she wasn't so damn fast, she'd have been done a lot sooner!"
  60. [17:49] <TenMihara|GM> Switchpost nods, "Yeah, she was a quick one. Typically though, there's a limit to how much speed alone can accomplish outside of running away. No running from the cage."
  61. [17:49] * Rime "That floppy-lipped, mange-assed, cum-chewer didn't stand a chance against Razor!" She rises a bit from her slouch to properly praise her idol.
  62. [17:50] <TenMihara|GM> Switchpost raises an eyebrow at Rime, "Toxicity may have liked Mares, but that's no way to talk about a fallen Reaper."
  63. [17:51] * Razor glances back at Rime. This filly... So excitable.
  64. [17:55] * Rime shrugs, but is a bit subdued. "Respect doesn't last past death. Once you're in the ground, you don't mean shit."
  65. [18:00] <TenMihara|GM> Switchpost shrugs, "True enough, but just because there's someone more badass than you doesn't mean you weren't badass in the first place/"
  66. [18:00] * Rime "Razor is the best badass! She's my BBBFF!"
  67. [18:00] * Logic blinks. He finds it awfully jarring that whenever Razor's not doing something, it's boring. Whenever she's getting praised and not doing anything, it's alright.
  68. [18:09] * Rime has reared to her hind legs at this point on Razor's back. She leans with an elbow on Razor's head. She points between them with her free hoof. "We're totally badasses."
  69. [18:09] <TenMihara|GM> Switchpost chuckles, "I'm sure you are, but you're not the only ones out there. Remember that."
  70. [18:08] * Harmony rolls her eyes at Rime's antics.
  71. [18:09] * Proverb nuzzles Harmony.
  72. [18:17] * Rime slips a pinch of snuff in the cheek opposite the dangling cigarette. For ultimate badassery.
  73. [18:19] * Rime offers the tin of chew to Razor.
  74. [18:20] * Razor scrunches her nose at Rime's offer
  75. [18:20] <TenMihara|GM> Switchpost doesn't look too approving, and continues on his conversation with X, the two moving along. X glances back to Razor, nodding her head, then continues on.
  76. [18:21] * Proverb just kept trotting. She didn't care if the little filly didn't think she was badass or not, she thought she was badass, and that was enough for her.
  77. [18:22] * Green_Field walks along not feeling the need to garner the approval of others and not really giving a damn about being badass.
  78. [18:24] * Harmony just wants biggest mac, not approval.
  79. [18:25] * Proverb takes to the air once they leave the Stadium area, switching out the ammo in her Battle Rifle for incindeary rounds.
  80. [18:26] * Razor isn't sure what she wants, now.
  81. [18:28] <TenMihara|GM> Razor got the one thing she wanted for so long, and with it, the very reason she wanted it in the first place. So what's left for the mare?
  82. [18:30] * Rime drapes her forelegs over Razor's ears, scanning the wasteland for potential dangers. She flicks the last of her cigarette away and gives a thoughtful chew.
  83. [18:32] * Proverb scans the surrounding terrain as well.
  84. [18:35] * Razor flicks those ears, looking around for herself as they go
  85. [18:37] * Harmony keeps her watch ahead, taking out her plasma rifle.
  86. [18:37] <Harmony> energy rifle**
  87. [18:47] <TenMihara|GM> It starts to rain
  88. [18:49] * Proverb is now a wet pegamare.
  89. [18:53] * Logic puts away his dapper hat.
  90. [18:53] * Rime unbuttons the pinned-up side of her slouch hat and leans forward, sharing a bit of shelter with Razor.
  91. [18:53] * Proverb shivers a bit, water trailing off her wings as she flew.
  92. [18:54] * Green_Field does what he did last time and gets out a blanket to drape over Daisy.
  93. [18:56] * Logic just makes sure his batteries are insulated out of the weather and continues.
  94. [18:56] * Razor isn't THAT bothered by the rain.
  95. [18:56] <TenMihara|GM> Daisy smiles thankfully, but the blanket just gets wet as well.
  96. [18:57] * Harmony sighs. She will need to brush her mane... again!
  97. [18:57] * Proverb will brush it for her!
  98. [18:58] * Razor doesn't have that much of a mane to brush.
  99. [19:00] <TenMihara|GM> The sky darkens as the rain grows worse. Lightning begins to flash off in the distance.
  100. [19:01] * Proverb meeps, spiraling down to the ground, shivering.
  101. [19:01] * Rime starts looking around for convenient shelter.
  102. [19:01] * Razor glances up at the sky. Dumb thunderstorms.
  103. [19:04] * Logic looks around for any interesting buildings to hole up in.
  104. [19:05] <TenMihara|GM> As the group approaches the river, which is swelling a little form the downpour, they come across a beached riverboat.
  105. [19:06] * Proverb unslings her carbine, zooming in on it, looking for signs of movement and the like.
  106. [19:07] <TenMihara|GM> The boat looks like it's been there a while, the bottom of the hull encrusted with dried barnacles, and listing slightly to the left. However, aside from some damage to the bow, the cabins look to be intact.
  107. [19:07] * Green_Field hangs back letting the others check it out first.
  108. [19:08] <Proverb> "Looks intact to me..."
  109. [19:08] * Rime "Want me to sneak a peak?" She hops down from Razor's back.
  110. [19:09] * Razor looks toward the boat. "How /old/ is that thing?"
  111. [19:09] * Harmony keeps her rifle out, approaching the boat slowly and examining it.
  112. [19:09] * Logic crouches slightly and attempts to creep on in, gun out and ready for trouble. As old as anything in the wasteland.
  113. [19:10] <Proverb> "Pretty old from the looks of it..." She trots after Harmony.
  114. [19:10] * Rime thinks if they want to stumble straight in, she'll wait out here.
  115. [19:12] * Green_Field thinks the kid may not be so dumb afterall.
  116. [19:22] * Rime looks up to Razor, seeing if she's going or hanging back.
  117. [19:23] * Razor waits for a few moments, but she heads in as well, drawing her new sword! She'll be damned if she's not gonna meet something head-on.
  118. [19:27] * Rime finds a place to observe from hiding, unslinging her grenade rifle.
  119. [19:30] * Green_Field pulls out his Magnum at least and wait infront of Daisy. He'll move up when the others go in to be in range in case they need medical attention.
  120. [19:35] <TenMihara|GM> The inside of the boat, but for the scarce amount of light coming into the superstructure from the open doors and a couple small holes, is completely dark.
  121. [19:37] * Harmony looks back to Green_Field. "Mister Green, could you provide us with some light?"
  122. [19:39] * Green_Field sighs and moves up lighting his horn and thinking to himself, "of course they need light. Why would I not need to get attacked by what or whoever is in there?"
  123. [19:39] <TenMihara|GM> Logic trips over his own hooves and makes a dull thud that echoes through the abandoned ship.
  124. [19:40] * Proverb draws her pistol, peering into the ship, crouching low.
  125. [19:40] * Logic is now intimately familiar with the grain of wood of the flooring. Yup. Thems be gorgeous grains. He has all the wooden dildo porn.
  126. [19:41] * Harmony sticks close to Green_Field for the light, and to assuage his worries of being the center of attention.
  127. [19:42] * Rime , from her decidedly not up near the cabin and rather back from the boat in general position, looks around the visible bottom of the boat. Looking for any holes or damage that would let something in.
  128. [19:42] * Green_Field heads in right behind Proverb not even needing to hold his head to he side for the light to reach around her due to her height.
  129. [19:44] * Proverb creeps into the ship, looking around for both somewhere to hole up, and anypony or anything else that happened to be in here.
  130. [19:44] <TenMihara|GM> There are a couple of small holes in the hull of the ship, but nothing that looks like it would have let more than a sloshing of water in now that it was beached.
  131. [19:45] * Harmony switches to her plasma pistol, being in the close quarters of a ship.
  132. [19:45] * Razor is looking around for anything unwelcome.
  133. [19:45] * Logic gets up and attempts to (this time) sneak through while paying attention to his surroundings.
  134. [19:57] <TenMihara|GM> A flash of lightning nearby illuminates the interior of the cabin ever so briefly. The party sees nothing.
  135. [20:03] <TenMihara|GM> As far as the party can tell, there is no one to be seen or heard inside the boat
  136. [20:05] * Green_Field keeps his horn lit and waits for the others to move up.
  137. [20:06] <TenMihara|GM> Daisy sticks close to Green_Field, but sets the wet blanket aside.
  138. [20:07] * Logic sneaky sneaks, trying to find a defensible room. Or, hey. Loot's good too.
  139. [20:10] * Harmony searches the immediate area within Green_Field's light.
  140. [20:10] * Green_Field shakes his head wondering why he was asked to light up the boat if they wanted to sneak through it.
  141. [20:13] * Rime continues to watch the boat and the swelling river. Didn't hey say something about the river? No screams yet... and they were flashing a light up there...
  142. [20:13] <TenMihara|GM> A search of the boat yields only a pair of skeletons. One in the cabin cot, and another in the kitchen. Both have presumably been here for ages.
  143. [20:13] <TenMihara|GM> HOwever
  144. [20:14] <TenMihara|GM> One of the drawers near the bed is ajar, while the others are all shut
  145. [20:15] * Razor keeps looking around. for a little longer. There's really nopony here?
  146. [20:16] * Green_Field checks out the ajar drawer.
  147. [20:16] <TenMihara|GM> Inside is an audio recorder.
  148. [20:17] * Green_Field hollars back or just says depending on where he is, "Logic, I have something for you."
  149. [20:19] * Logic raises his eyebrow and steps out of the shadows. He levitates the recorder around, inquisitively. "Play it now?" He asked.
  150. [20:19] * Harmony pokes Green_Field, curious about what's on the recorder. "Just play it."
  151. [20:19] * Harmony actually pokes Logic.
  152. [20:21] <TenMihara|GM> Daisy tilts her head at the recorder. She looks to Green_Field inquisitively, having no idea what the device was.
  153. [20:21] * Green_Field pushes play.
  154. [20:22] * Logic pushes play, thank you.
  155. [20:23] * Razor wonders if anypony needs her to push play?
  156. [20:24] * Razor gives another quick look around before returning to the others.
  157. [20:26] <TenMihara|GM> "Day One: You hear a lot of stories about Hoofington, some glorious, some gruesome. Ultimately though, the wasteland needs to know its fact from fiction. I, Probe, on behalf of the Twilight Society, will be undertaking a solitary expedition through parts of Hoofington in order to see what, if any, value Equestria's bastion of progress can offer us, and perhaps the rest of Equestria."
  158. [20:26] <TenMihara|GM> The recorder stops, and a blinking display indicates 28 additional tracks recorded. There are controls to skip back and forth.
  159. [20:27] * Rime slinks quietly into the cabin.
  160. [20:27] * Harmony pokes Logic again! She wants to hear another. "Would you skip to the next, dear?"
  161. [20:28] * Logic blinks. Switches to the next track.
  162. [20:30] <TenMihara|GM> "Day Two: These recordings are the easiest way I could think of to record my observations while remaining alert enough to protect myself from potential hazards. Naturally, they are intended for the ears of the Twilight Society only. That said, should I perish, and anyone find this recorder, please bring it to Tenpony Tower in Manehattan. Based on my projected route of travel, I should reach the edge of the greater Hoofing
  163. [20:32] <TenMihara|GM> -greater Hoofington area tomorrow."
  164. [20:32] * Logic clicks the next button again. Some scholar pony is doing stuff. Cool.
  165. [20:33] * Green_Field puts his Magnum away, but keeps his light on.
  166. [20:34] * Razor rolls her eyes. Why's everypony interested in such boring stuff?
  167. [20:35] * Rime thinks a boat like this probably has a cargo hold... she slips out on deck and looks for a hatch.
  168. [20:36] <TenMihara|GM> The boat isn't very large, and there isn't an actual hold designated for cargo.
  169. [20:37] * Proverb leans against Harmony, yawning.
  170. [20:38] <TenMihara|GM> "Day Three: Arrived in Greater Hoofington Area. Met a travelling merchant who was kind enough to allow me to follow along on his way to a local settlement. Had some brief conversation about the area, mainly focusing on local hotspots and hazards. The most curious one was something called 'Enervation', which seems to be some strange field of energy that causes numerous malignant effects. An undocumented for of magical radi
  171. [20:38] <TenMihara|GM> -An undocumented form of magical radiation perhaps?"
  172. [20:39] * Harmony wraps a hoof around Proverb, still listening to the recorder, if Logic were to continue it.
  173. [20:40] * Logic pff's. What kinds of idiots don't know about Enervation. Except for ponies who haven't had to deal with it. Damn. Lucky guy. Or maybe not. Click.
  174. [20:40] * Rime well... maybe not a true hold then, still, a down below of some flavor. At least an engine room for her to poke around and maybe scrounge some mechanic.
  175. [20:42] * Proverb nuzzles Harmony's neck, murring.
  176. [20:45] * Razor wanders off to find something more interesting than boring stuff.
  177. [20:45] <TenMihara|GM> "Day Four: Stayed overnight in Settlement known as 'Flank', formerly suburb of Flankfurt. Hospitable, if a bit on the derogatory side. Inquiries about the nature of local 'Enervation' hazard, have yielded similar warnings about effects and it being dangerous, but nopony seems to have any means of quantifying it. Will seek out more sophisticated equipment once a residence is obtained."
  178. [20:46] <TenMihara|GM> There is a small engine area, designed for a single person maintenance
  179. [20:46] * Logic clicks the next button again, noting the porn he got while in there.
  180. [20:49] * Rime checks for dangers, 40mm honeycomb ready in case of close up nasties. If clear, she starts scavenging.
  181. [20:50] <TenMihara|GM> "Day Eight. Skipped recording for a few days while properly setting myself up. Rent here in Flank is cheap, and local caravans travelling from a site known as 'Megamart' often come carrying a fair deal of materials I could use to jury-rig some new sensor equipment. Hopefully it will be sufficient to shed some light on this enervation mystery."
  182. [20:50] * Logic notes the fact that he has materials in Flank for future consideration. Click.
  183. [20:54] * Harmony notes that they might be able to get a decent amount of caps for returning the recorder.
  184. [20:54] <TenMihara|GM> Daisy raises an eyebrow at Green, then looks between him and Logic incredulously. Was he really going to play all of them?
  185. [20:57] * Razor keeps exploring the ship while boring ponies listen to boring stuff and do boring things.
  186. [20:59] <TenMihara|GM> There seems to be a great deal of nothing on the ship, at least nothing Razor would notice.
  187. [20:59] * Razor thinks this ship is boring.
  188. [21:00] * Rime is totally raiding the small engine room for tools and then using those tools to free more mechanical stuff!
  189. [21:00] * Logic is totally going to listen to all of them.
  190. [21:03] * Razor decides to look for planty stuff to make poisons with, since there's nothing else interesting.
  191. [21:03] <TenMihara|GM> Rime finds a hammer, wrench, spanner, screwdriver, a small acetylene blowtorch, and a Conductor lying about
  192. [21:07] <TenMihara|GM> The Logs Logic plays through continue on in a similar fashion, with the recordee stating the summary of his experiments for that day. However, the Fifteenth entry gets a little strange
  193. [21:07] * Harmony listens with rapt attention. Such vivid detail!
  194. [21:08] * Proverb has fallen asleep against Harmony.
  195. [21:08] <TenMihara|GM> "Day Twenty-Four. Been having some strange headaches recently. Given my presumed exposure to Enervation from my previous attempts to quantify the phenomenon, I was expceting to experience some of the effects. I plan to take a few days off to let the effects subside before I continue my reseach. As of today, all tests remain inconclusive."
  196. [21:13] * Logic clicks the next one. Different tone in this one.
  197. [21:13] * Rime uses her newfound tools to remove anything salvagable from the engine.
  198. [21:13] <TenMihara|GM> The next recording is jsut two minutes of static
  199. [21:15] * Logic clicks the next one.
  200. [21:17] <TenMihara|GM> "Day Twenty-Eight: I seem to have accidentally clicked by recorder on when I was sleeping. Probably rolled over onto it. Four days of rest have done nothing for the headaches. I will be seeking medical attention and discontinuing my studies for the next little while. My dreams have been rather bizarre over the last few days, I hope it's not brain damage."
  201. [21:18] * Logic clicks the next one, his eyebrow raising.
  202. [21:20] * Green_Field is listening intently as well.
  203. [21:21] <TenMihara|GM> "Day Thirty: Hearing what sounds like muffled, incoherent voices. Medical examination yielded no results. I honestly don't trust the results though, given the surliness of the local 'Doctor' Silver. Pressure at the base of my horn suggests magical interference. This however has given me a new idea about how to quantify Enervation."
  204. [21:21] * Logic clicks the next one. Should be the last log.
  205. [21:24] <TenMihara|GM> "Day Thirty-Four: Voices grow cleaer each day. No one else can hear them. Perhaps because no one has been exposed to as much enervation as me and lived. Whether this is dumb luck, or some sort of unique condition on my part, I cannot be sure. Have noticed a pattern in the voices as they grow clearer, though exact words still elusive."
  206. [21:33] <TenMihara|GM> Another flash of lightning sends some light into the engine room of the boat where Rime still is. She catches a brief glimpse of what looks like writing on the wall.
  207. [21:34] * Rime lights her new acetylene blowtorch. Investigating the writing.
  208. [21:35] <TenMihara|GM> 'THE BEAST IS COMING' It seems to be written in blood.
  209. [21:36] * Rime looks around much more seriously, ignoring the engine for now and looking for signs of remains.
  210. [21:37] <TenMihara|GM> Rime finds nothing. Not even a trail of blood droppings beyond the writing on the wall.
  211. [21:38] * Harmony pokes Logic. "There would still be more logs, dear."
  212. [21:38] * Logic clicks it one last time. Maybe he miscounted.
  213. [21:38] * Rime thinks 'That's kinda creepy.' But it's par for the course in the hoof. She goes back to finish scrounging and will then leave the room.
  214. [21:39] <TenMihara|GM> With her tools, Rime is able to salvage three Scrap Metal and one Scrap ELectronics from the engine
  215. [21:41] * Rime nods to herself. She head up to the cabin with the others. Not bothering with stealth now.
  216. [21:41] <TenMihara|GM> "Day Thirty-Five: Vivid dreams and voices have finally produced something coherent. One word: Beast. No clue what this means, or what this beast might be. The images in my dreams have not given form to this name, only nightmarish depictions of grotesquery."
  217. [21:43] * Logic tilts his head. Yeah, he doesn't do his best thinking in the rain for some reason. It got him sleepy. Click.
  218. [21:44] <TenMihara|GM> Another two minutes of static.
  219. [21:44] * Rime spits a stream tobacco juice out the door. "Still exciting in here, I see."
  220. [21:45] * Proverb is cuddled up against Harmony, dozing.
  221. [21:47] * Logic rolls his eyes. Ugh. Static. Click.
  222. [21:47] * Rime "Oh, by the way. Blood mural in the engine room." Spit.
  223. [21:48] <TenMihara|GM> "Previous recording has successfully captured the voices for potential analysis. I fear for my own sanity at this point, but at least whoever finds this will know of what has been whispered to me. The Beast, whatever it may be, is coming, and with it will come death and destruction on an unimaginable scale."
  224. [21:49] * Harmony blinks, pulling out her plasma pistol, thinking the room to now be unsafe. "What is the mural of?"
  225. [21:49] * Green_Field looks up at Rime, "blood mural?"
  226. [21:49] * Logic sighed. "It's not much less horror movie in here." He has all the horror movie porn.
  227. [21:50] * Rime "Blood. 'Oh No The Beast Gonna Get Us!' or some shit." Spit.
  228. [21:51] * Logic frowns. Click.
  229. [21:52] <Green_Field> "Did it look old?"
  230. [21:52] * Rime "Dried old blood. Nothing else."
  231. [21:53] <TenMihara|GM> "I now know what the Beast is. It's an unimaginable horror from our past, coming back to destroy our future. A bottomless, black mass of hate, and the will to destroy all. A horror we created by which all our own sins will be pruged. The Beast is coming."
  232. [21:54] * Rime ears perk up. "That's the wording. 'The Beast is coming.'"
  233. [21:55] * Green_Field looks at Logic, "what do you make of it?"
  234. [21:56] * Logic just looks a lot more tired than scared. Funny thing about being a child of the wasteland, when you deal with trouble as much as they do, paralyzing fear is the first thing to go. "Don't care." He mentions, clicking it again.
  235. [21:56] * Logic also floats his plasma rifle out.
  236. [21:58] <TenMihara|GM> The last few recordings are just a mass hysteric chanting of 'The beast is coming' over and over again
  237. [21:59] <Green_Field> "Well, this beast hasn't attacked us yet. So, it was either a delusion or it's long gone as far as I can tell."
  238. [22:00] * Logic rubs his chin. "Thinking one of three things. This guy's a ghoul, this guy's just gone crazy, or somepony or something's been fucking with his brain."
  239. [22:01] <Green_Field> "Or possibly more than one." He turns to Rime. "Show me this blood mural."
  240. [22:01] * Rime nods, trotting back out toward the engine room and the blood mural.
  241. [22:02] * Green_Field follows her there.
  242. [22:02] <TenMihara|GM> The blood mural is long dried.
  243. [22:03] <TenMihara|GM> it's dark red though, indicating that whoever's blood it was, they were not a ghoul.
  244. [22:04] * Logic looks around. Hmm. Weeeird.
  245. [22:04] * Green_Field looking at it, "hmm, well that knocks out two possibilities."
  246. [22:06] * Razor makes her way back to the group after unsuccessfully looking for things that aren't boring.
  247. [22:06] * Harmony keeps watch with Proverb for any sight of 'The Beast'.
  248. [22:08] * Proverb fiddles with her battle rifle a little, glancing around.
  249. [22:08] * Green_Field after looking at the mural returns as well and looks at Logic, "he wasn't a ghoul and he wasn't hysterical unless someone else put his blood on the wall. Assuming of course that that's his blood.
  250. [22:09] <Green_Field> "*
  251. [22:10] * Logic ponders, then points at Green, Proverb, Daisy, and Harmony. An idea rattled in his brain and somehow exited through his mouth. "Hey, don't have sex while we're here, alright? The monster always gets you when you're fucking."
  252. [22:10] * Harmony rolls her eyes. "I will try to contain myself."
  253. [22:10] * Proverb blushes.
  254. [22:11] <TenMihara|GM> Aside from a few leaks, the boat at least seems to be a secure, if creepy, shelter from the storm.
  255. [22:11] * Razor wonders exactly what she walked in on. "Uh..."
  256. [22:12] * Green_Field stares for a moment, "did I just tell you something that I didn't relise?"
  257. [22:13] * Harmony shakes her head at Razor. "Nothing. Supposedly, there is a beast that is going to try and kill us.:
  258. [22:13] <Harmony> "*
  259. [22:14] * Proverb giggles nervously.
  260. [22:14] * Razor glances at the wall, then back at Proverb. "... Don't tell me THAT'S what gets you off?"
  261. [22:14] * Proverb meeeeeeeps.
  262. [22:14] <Proverb> "Wh-wh-what? N-No!"
  263. [22:16] * Logic nods. "She's studdering. That's totally what gets her off. But it's okay, just contain yourself right for this night."
  264. [22:16] * Logic is dead serious.
  265. [22:16] * Proverb stomps her hoof on the floor. "I-It's nnot!"
  266. [22:16] * Razor eyes Proverb.
  267. [22:17] <Green_Field> "Care to explain, Logic? Did you find something in the recordings?"
  268. [22:17] * Proverb backs against Harmony.
  269. [22:20] * Logic tilts his head. "Probe went haywire and started dreaming about nightmare stuff and said the beast was coming and stuff. I've read something like this." 'The Coming', by Shama Llama and Ding Dong.
  270. [22:21] * Harmony sighs. It's not what gets them off, but whatever.
  271. [22:22] * Green_Field cringes and sighs, "Whatever. Who's on what watch?"
  272. [22:22] <TenMihara|GM> Daisy looks unnerved however, and clings to Green_Field.
  273. [22:26] <Proverb> "Uhm, I'll take first watch."
  274. [22:26] * Rime snorts. "Just cause some other poor ballsack lost his head doesn't mean there's some mind-fucking nightmare monster prowling around."
  275. [22:27] * Logic rose his hoof. "I'll get second."
  276. [22:27] * Logic points at Rime. "Besides, if that's the thing that is causing it, I'll unfuck it for you."
  277. [22:29] * Green_Field not wanting to listen to Harmony and Proverb make out all night, "I'll join you on second." He goes to pick up the blanket Daisy put down that's hopefully gone from wet to damp.
  278. [22:29] * Proverb leans over to Harmony and whispers something.
  279. [22:30] * Rime quirks an eyebrow. "Hold your horses, loverboy. We've only been dating a couple days.
  280. [22:30] <TenMihara|GM> The blankest is still soaked. However, there are a few towels in one of the closed drawers if anyone cared to look through them.
  281. [22:31] * Razor shrugs. "Just wake me up whenever. This ship is completely empty. It's the most boring abandoned ship in the history of ever."
  282. [22:32] * Logic blinks. "I can do some mind magic stuff."
  283. [22:32] * Harmony smiles at Proverb and nods, following her.
  284. [22:34] * Rime "If I want any part of you invading me, /I'll/ tell /you/. We need a third watch?"
  285. [22:35] * Logic is so confused. "I got it."
  286. [22:36] * Green_Field returns with the blanket and towels, "4 and 4 should do it unless you want to stay here longer."
  287. [22:38] * Rime yawns. "Bother mining the place, or no?"
  288. [22:38] * Logic settles to a spot. "In the morning."
  289. [22:40] * Green_Field lays the towels down in the corner for Daisy and himself.
  290. [22:41] * Rime decides not to bother, and trots over to bed down with Razor.
  291. [22:41] <TenMihara|GM> Daisy smiles appreciatively and sticks close to Green_Field as she lays down.
  292. [22:42] * Razor isn't troubled by this place. She's slept in worse places. Sleep will come easy.
