  1. [13:19] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 *****PnP Group 7 Session 17*****
  2. [13:21] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 When last we left our band of misfits, they had just finished devastating a group of raiders in the inner city. Their swift and decisive defeat of these raiders allowed them to vent some of the frustrations that had been building up around the contents of a certain black box, and the shocking revelations it had given to the party.
  3. [13:22] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 We join the the following morning, after spending the night in a building close to the Raider's camp. Hopefully their rest was restorative, as they have plenty of other things on their mind to keep them going.
  4. 07[13:24] * +Desert_Storm stretches and yawns loudly. Slowly turning over, she opens a box of cereal and has a dry breakfast.
  5. 15[13:27] * +Karina is already up and poking at her damaged new rifle... She's looking at it, but she for sure doesn't know how to fix it.
  6. 07[13:28] * +Fire_Lily is spending the morning reading. She's starting to enjoy it.
  7. 02[13:28] * &Arcane_Sleeping[A] ([email protected]) Quit (Quit: Sunshine and Rainbows)
  8. 07[13:29] * +Primer wakes up next to Keen and stretches, listening to her spine popping.
  9. 15[13:29] * +Karina sighs. Well... Cookie was dead. He wasn't going to be fixing up weapons anymore. "So does anyone know how to fix a gun?"
  10. 04[13:29] * +Desert_Storm waves a hoof at Karina. "Let me take a look at it."
  11. 15[13:30] * +Karina blinks at Desert_Storm. Huh. She gets up and hoofs the rifle over to her.
  12. 07[13:32] * +Primer yawns and rummages around in her pack for a can of food.
  13. [13:34] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 Wraith grumbles form near the entrance; "Bout time you guys woke up."
  14. 07[13:35] * +Primer looks sideways at Wraith. "Cool it big guy, we smoothcoats needs out beauty rest."
  15. 07[13:36] * +Desert_Storm digs through her pack for a weapon repair kit. It was in rough shape, but this ought to do the trick. With some duct tape and a few pieces of scrap metal, it was almost as good as new. "Here you go." She rolls her eyes at Wraith. "Didn't think we were in a hurry to get anywhere."
  16. [13:36] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 Wraith rolls his eyes. "Pity."
  17. 15[13:37] * +Karina furrows her brow a bit in thought but takes the weapon back. "Thanks..."
  18. 07[13:37] * +Keen awakens whenever Primer moves away. He hadn't slept well, and he'd been clinging on throughout the night. Keen blinks and realized that they were getting up now.
  19. 06[13:37] * Arcane_Scroll ([email protected]) has joined #FalloutEquestriaPNP
  20. 06[13:37] * ChanServ sets mode: +ao Arcane_Scroll Arcane_Scroll
  21. 07[13:39] * +Primer looks up from her rummaging and smiles at Keen. "Morning... you slepy okay?"
  22. [13:39] <+Primer> ((slept))
  23. 07[13:42] * +Keen stretches his wings and retches back to stretch his aching lower back. Luna's left flank cheek, how do ghouls do it? "Good as ever. Did you sleep well?"
  24. 07[13:42] * +Fire_Lily puts the book away and stands up to stretch. Better get ready to go...
  25. 07[13:42] * +Primer nods. "As well as could be..." She finally locates a can of veggies and pops it open.
  26. 04[13:43] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 Wraith comes away from the entrance and observes Karina's rifle; "It's a decent piece. Better than most raider weapons usually are. Probably explains how he got the drop on that other guy. Or maybe from him."
  27. 15[13:45] * +Karina finishes putting the rifle away and looks up at Wraith. "What other guy?"
  28. [13:46] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 Wriath looks outside; "The guy who's head was on a pike and body was few to those dogs I squished."
  29. [13:47] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 Wraith notes; "According to the guy with that rifle, the poor sap had been another of DJ P0N-3's so called 'heroes'."
  30. 07[13:47] * +Primer omnomnoms.
  31. 15[13:48] * +Karina nods. "Oh... right. I wasn't exactly listening to anything before the fight..."
  32. 07[13:48] * +Desert_Storm goes back to her cereal.
  33. 06[13:49] * Pantzar ([email protected]) has joined #FalloutEquestriaPNP
  34. [13:49] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 Wraith shakes his head; "You should pay more attention to shit like that. Could be important."
  35. 15[13:50] * +Karina "I'm sorry, I was too busy lining up the shots to take out their entire group to make sure they never got a chance to turn any of your guys' heads to soup."
  36. [13:51] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 Wraith shrugs; "You want me to try and fix the gun or not?
  37. 15[13:52] * +Karina blinks. "What?"
  38. 07[13:52] * +Fire_Lily tries to ignore the bickering and goes to spend the morning with the more quiet ponies.
  39. [13:53] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 Wraith snorts; "I'm not just a guy who hits things. If I feel so inclined, I can fix things as well as I can break them."
  40. 07[13:53] * +Primer looks up as Fire_Lily walks up. "Hey... you okay?"
  41. 15[13:53] * +Karina blinky blinks then pulls the rifle back out. "Sure."
  42. [13:54] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 Wraith looks it over; "It's not in terrible shape. I could fix it up if I had some tools or a repair kit."
  43. 15[13:54] * +Karina "Oh..." She pulls the mobile workbench out from hammer space as well and sets it up.
  44. [13:55] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 Wriath blinks in surprise; "That's... convenient. How's a small mare like you carry that around?" He takes the rifle and sets it on the bench to work on.
  45. [13:56] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 The ghoul turns out to be rather impressive, quickly and cleanly restoring the battered rifle to pristine condition
  46. 15[13:56] * +Karina "Pockets in my cloak... I figured we'd need it after Cookie died if something broke."
  47. 07[13:57] * +Desert_Storm shrugs and stretches out her little slice of heaven. Still yawning, she says to nopony in particular "If I might make a suggestion, we should make a stop at Rottingtail's. I could use some more rounds." She pats the pockets on her vest.
  48. 04[13:57] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 Wraith actually gives Karina a smirk as he returns the rifle; "Clever girl."
  49. 07[13:57] * +Fire_Lily nods. "Yeah... I'm okay." She sits herself next to Primer. "Maybe a little tired."
  50. 07[13:58] * +Primer ruffles Fire_Lily's mane and smiles. "Well, you can live through a little tiredness. Have you eaten this morning?"
  51. 15[13:58] * +Karina takes the rifle back and returns it to its rightful place. "Kinda... made it look like new." She pauses. "Oh, uh, this other pistol looks pretty bad off, too..." She pulls out the zebra pistol and holds it out.
  52. [13:59] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 Wraith takes the pistol over to the workbench and attempts to work his magic again
  53. 07[13:59] * +Fire_Lily shakes her head. "No... not yet. I was busy reading. I was just about to eat something."
  54. 04[14:00] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 Wriath manages to get the gun looking in a sufficient condition that it won't explode in the users face. "Not too familiar with zebra designs, so I wouldn't work out all the kinks." He again returns the gun to Karina
  55. 07[14:01] * +Keen grumbles slightly and looks at his box of dried apple delight. Hrm. I wonder if I can....
  56. 07[14:01] * +Primer holds out her half eaten can of veggies to Fire_Lily and raises an eyebrow. "You want any?"
  57. [14:01] <+Desert_Storm> "Or not, it's fine either way."
  58. 15[14:01] * +Karina takes the pistol back and also returns it to her cloak holster. "Thanks, though..." She packs up the workbench as well.
  59. 15[14:03] * +Karina looks back at Desert_Storm then pulls out the pipbuck and studies the map.
  60. [14:03] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 Wraith shrugs; "If it keeps you alive longer, then it was worth the effort. If not, it'll just be somepony else's prize later." He returns to standing silently by the door
  61. 07[14:03] * +Fire_Lily eyes the offered food for a moment. "Uhh... no thanks. I have my own..." She takes her own food out and starts eating.
  62. 07[14:03] * +Primer sneaks a peek at the pipbuck. Nice looking device. "We need to figure out how to open that thing so somepony else can put it on."
  63. 07[14:04] * +Primer finishes her can of veggies.
  64. 15[14:04] * +Karina looks back up at Desert_Storm. "It's... kinda on the way. At least we can get there without wasting a whole day."
  65. 07[14:05] * +Keen tries to find a tin can without too much rust in the middle. He looks at his sweetieflank. "Hey. Mind if I use that?" He says, pointing to Primer's can.
  66. 07[14:05] * +Desert_Storm nods. "Well, I'd say it's worth it. You never know what's going to be waiting for us."
  67. 07[14:05] * +Primer hands the can over to Keen. "Sure, go ahead Sweetie."
  68. 07[14:07] * +Keen looks at the inside and wipes it off a bit. He then adds his dried apple cereal, and throws in some water. Irradiated, this was going to be an experiment. His stomach was feeling particularly burny anyway.
  69. 07[14:09] * +Fire_Lily looks over curiously at what Keen was doing. She has no idea what's possessing him to do something so strange.
  70. 07[14:10] * +Desert_Storm gives Keen a funny look. She'd keep her dry cereal if that was the alternative.
  71. 07[14:10] * +Primer frowns. "Keen... what are you doing?"
  72. 15[14:10] * +Karina looks over. "Uh... Keen?"
  73. [14:11] <+Keen> He then heats it to a warm texture and lets it set for a little while. He wanted some semi-fresh apples, damnit. "Trying to resuscitate the apples." He quipped, quite distracted. Hey, it wasn't exactly high science, but this should work. Sort of.
  74. 15[14:12] * +Karina sighs and says quietly, "Sorry Keen..."
  75. 07[14:13] * +Desert_Storm shrugs. "You have fun with that." She finishes her cereal and tosses the box out a window.
  76. 07[14:15] * +Fire_Lily shakes her head and continues eating her own food. Keen was such a silly pony sometimes.
  77. 15[14:16] * +Karina doesn't eat breakfast.
  78. 07[14:17] * +Keen looks at the bubbling mixture he made. Okay, this should be good. This should be decent. He took a bite...
  79. [14:17] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 It's not
  80. 07[14:17] * +Primer looks on curiously.
  81. 07[14:18] * +Desert_Storm shudders. "I bet that tastes wonderful."
  82. 06[14:19] * SilentBrony ([email protected]) has joined #FalloutEquestriaPNP
  83. 07[14:19] * +Keen ...and he looked rather disappointed. Oh, Celestia smite it. The preservatives must have ruined the process or something. He drooped his hoof and smacked his lips, looking in dread to the rest of it. Welp. You made your bed, Keen.
  84. 06[14:20] * SilentBrony is now known as Wraith-
  85. [14:21] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 Now eat it. ALL of it
  86. 07[14:21] * +Primer looks on with sympathy as Keen eats.
  87. 06[14:22] * TenMihara|GM sets mode: +v Wraith-
  88. 07[14:26] * +Desert_Storm trots outside and waits, taking a good look around. Just as dumpy as ever.
  89. [14:27] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 Desert Storm spots somethign in the early morning light that wasn't easy to see the night before. A small glint of metal sticking out form beneath one of the corners of the raider mattresses
  90. 07[14:28] * +Keen wipes his mouth of that... Thing he made. Science sucks sometimes. "So. Uh. Let's not talk about this again." He said, fighting his stomach to keep that stuff down. On the bright side, either he didn't care about his intestines, or they cooled down. "Bright side. I think I finally figured out what the mutation is. And it's actually... Rather benign."
  91. 07[14:28] * +Primer packs up and hangs her saddlebags back on and drapes her cloak over herself. Cloaks were the best... stylish -and- a blanket.
  92. 07[14:29] * +Desert_Storm trots over hesitantly. Before reaching down to look at it, she takes a quick look around. Seeing nothing important, she bends down and flips up the mattress.
  93. 07[14:30] * +Wraith- looks over at the group but maintains his silence. Keen's suggestion was probably the best thing he's heard him say thus far.
  94. 07[14:30] * +Fire_Lily stands again and stretches each leg in turn. "So... where are we going now?"
  95. [14:32] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 Underneath the Matress is what looks like a lockbox, except that some silly raider left the key in the lock.
  96. 07[14:32] * +Desert_Storm takes one last look around. Too easy... She turns the key.
  97. 07[14:33] * +Desert_Storm ... with whatever body part a pony would normally do that with.
  98. 07[14:34] * +Primer stretches for a final time before saying. "Well, we were on our way to Cloudsdale... right?" She couldn't remember why though.
  99. [14:35] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 The box springs open as Storm turns the key with her -mouth- (it tastes terrible by the way), revealing a stash of bottle caps, along with a small orange gemstone. There's a note underneath it that read; 'Dunno if the shiny rock is worth anything, so I'll keep it as a trophy.'
  100. 07[14:36] * +Desert_Storm spits the key out on the ground and pockets the caps and the stone in the "Desert needs ammo" fund. She picks up the note with her mouth and tucks it away. Better to think about it later.
  101. 07[14:40] * +Keen looks at the workbench. Should he go for two? He grumbled a bit and squinted his eyes. He was going to do something productive this morning. Something a little crazy. "Does anypony have a Sparkle battery on hoof?" He mentions.
  102. 07[14:40] * +Fire_Lily looks between Primer and Keen. "So... we are or we aren't?"
  103. 02[14:41] * AMARDA_Awake ([email protected]) Quit (Client exited)
  104. [14:41] <+Keen> "Hmm? Oh. Sure, what Desert said. Rottingtail's and then Cloudsdale. Sure." He retrieved his Gem Packs and started doing some work.
  105. 07[14:42] * +Desert_Storm trots inside from her perimeter sweep and piles all of her crap on her cloud. "The sooner we leave, the better."
  106. 15[14:42] * +Karina apparently didn't put away the workbench...
  107. 02[14:42] * Waak ([email protected]) Quit (Quit: ChatZilla 0.9.87 [Firefox 13.0.1/20120614114901])
  108. 07[14:43] * +Primer trotts over to the entrance to the hovel and prepares to leave. "Well, let's get moving as soon as Keen is done."
  109. 07[14:46] * +Desert_Storm follows Primer.
  110. 15[14:46] * +Karina sets one of her spark batteries on the workbench for Keen.
  111. 04[14:47] * +Keen smiles at Karina and begins converting energy.
  112. [14:48] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 SCIENCE RULES
  113. 07[14:48] * +Desert_Storm is blinded with science!
  114. [14:48] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 KEEN SHINE, THE SCIENCE GUY
  115. 07[14:49] * +Fire_Lily follows Primer and Storm. Waiting for us to leave.
  116. 07[14:50] * +Wraith- is set to go, following after Primer.
  117. 06[14:51] * Smoulder ([email protected]) has joined #FalloutEquestriaPNP
  118. 07[14:51] * +Keen feels the familiar crackle of magic around his hooves. He guessed this was what it was like to be a unicorn. It was a stupid idea, but if it worked, it might be a rather scary thing to look down the barrel of. After a little while, he wipes the sweat off of his brow and looks at the single, brightly glowing Gem. It seemed to shine like a Sparkle Cola RAD!. He nodded at his handiwork, and...
  119. 07[14:51] * +Keen ...then lifted it up in his hoof cautiously. Careful, Keen. This thing's practically an explosive right now.
  120. 15[14:53] * +Karina is waiting for Keen to finish before she properly packs up the workbench and follows Primer.
  121. 07[14:55] * +Keen places the gem daintily into his reliable FlashCo MagLight pistol. The moment he closed the connection, pink magical arcs seems to shoot from the tip of the gun off in random directions. It didn't just have that malevolent hum his previous experiment (we didn't mention the applesauce), it seemed to make the gun scream why the hell he was doing this to it with a high-pitched wail. He smiled...
  122. 07[14:55] * +Keen ...at his handiwork. Success.
  123. 06[14:56] * Pony_5888 ([email protected]) has joined #FalloutEquestriaPNP
  124. 15[14:56] * +Karina packs up the workbench and walks over to Primer. "Ready."
  125. 07[14:57] * +Primer nods. "Lets get going."
  126. 02[14:57] * Smoulder ([email protected]) Quit (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)
  127. 06[14:57] * Smoulder ([email protected]) has joined #FalloutEquestriaPNP
  128. 07[14:58] * +Desert_Storm floats off. Finally!
  129. 07[14:58] * +Keen disconnects the gem and places the more stable Overcharge gem inside and follows the crew. One for two wasn't bad.
  130. 07[14:59] * +Primer exits the hovel and starts to walk the road, aiming for Rottingtails turf.
  131. [15:00] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 With Keen's mad science experiment concluded (mercifully without any explosions), the group heads off. They decide to, at Desert storm's request, make a slight detour to Rottingtail's HQ in order to see if they can scrounge up some extra ammo.
  132. 07[15:05] * +Fire_Lily walks close to Storm, whispering to her. "...I need you to buy me something."
  133. 07[15:05] * +Desert_Storm cocks her head. "Hmmm? Sure, what do you need?"
  134. [15:06] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 Rottingtail welcomes the group; "Ain't seen ya'll in a while. Glad yer not dead or nothin'. You actually came at a good time, we just brought back some new inventory from an old military outpost."
  135. 07[15:06] * +Wraith- asks out amongst the group, "Managed to find some 5.56mm rounds if anypony wants em. I was never too good at using guns myself."
  136. 15[15:07] * +Karina pulls out her new rifle and looks at her old one again. Both used 5.56. She looks up at Wraith-. "I could use them."
  137. [15:07] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 Rottingtail approaches Storm in particular; "Got anything that uses .45-70 Ministry Rounds? Got a heapload of them, and the only guns that use them are mine." He gestures to his Battle Saddle, which has a Brush Gun on each side.
  138. 07[15:08] * +Wraith- turns and hoofs the six 5.56mm rounds to the zebra mare companion.
  139. 07[15:08] * +Primer juggles her new High-Ex grenades briefly before letting them thump down into her pack. "Well, that was time well spent."
  140. [15:09] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 Rottingtail casts a glance at Wraith. He looked kinda familiar, but then again, mummies aren't exactly a common sight.
  141. 07[15:09] * +Desert_Storm looks to her rifle. "Afraid not. I am looking for .308 variants, though. Got anything like that?"
  142. 07[15:09] * +Keen looks at Rottingtail and waves. "45-70?" Keen was rather cluesless when it came to guns. The first time he tried to shoot one, the recoil made the barrel go up and hit him between the eyes. He shook his head. "Whatever. Did a new ghoul arrive in town recently?"
  143. 07[15:10] * +Fire_Lily makes sure nopony is looking, waiting for everyone to be distracted before showing Storm the gun she'd picked up from the safe a while back. "...I need you to buy bullets for this."
  144. 07[15:10] * +Desert_Storm nods to Lily silently.
  145. 07[15:10] * +Fire_Lily whispers again. "I can pay for it... I just need you to buy it."
  146. [15:10] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 Rottingtail gives Storm a smirk; "Are you now? Well, you're in luck." He trots over to the area where ammo boxes and crates were being brought in, picks up one and brings it back over. "These might be up your alley." He pops open the lid, reveal 20 .308 Incendiary Rounds.
  147. 07[15:11] * +Wraith- just looks amongst the ghoulish ponies. Looking a lot more at ease amongst them. Not that he hadn't seen bad non-feral ghouls in his life.
  148. 07[15:11] * +Desert_Storm goes wide-eyed. "This... this I can work with."
  149. [15:13] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 Rottingtail chuckles; "Thought you might. 4 caps each."
  150. 07[15:13] * +Desert_Storm buys the whole box, and a few armor piercers too.
  151. 06[15:13] * Menti is now known as Menti|LoL
  152. 07[15:13] * +Primer rummages around. "Okay... hmm, worthless, rusted... dang, you better detonate this at a safe place, this dynamite is ready to start sweating!" Primer carefully avoids touching the crate of dynamite and moves on to the shelf with pistol parts. "Hey, you guys got any 10mm addons for my gun?"
  153. 07[15:14] * +Desert_Storm adds in a low whisper. "And, I need a few 9mm rounds as well."
  154. [15:14] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 Rottingtail catches a glimpse of the Filly's gun. He could tell she was being secretive, so he addresses Storm; "I just so happen to have a short range sidearm scope for a 9mm if you're interested. Nopony here uses them."
  155. [15:14] <+Desert_Storm> "That would be nice."
  156. [15:15] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 Rottingtail nods and procures the ammo and scope for 'Storm'.
  157. [15:17] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 The buck at the counter produces some 10mm extended magazines
  158. 07[15:17] * +Primer nods in appreciation and buys a few. "Thanks buddy, this will do the trick."
  159. 07[15:17] * +Desert_Storm pockets her ammo and trots outside.
  160. 15[15:19] * +Karina squees when she gets her suppressor for her new assault rifle and immediately goes about attaching it.
  161. [15:19] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 Rottingtail, his business with Storm concluded, approaches Wraith-; "Ain't seen you around before. You with them, or you lookin' to join up with muh squad?"
  162. 07[15:19] * +Desert_Storm motions for Lily to join her.
  163. 07[15:20] * +Wraith- looks over Rottingtail and his squad for a moment before saying, "I'm with them, unless they've grown tired of my sunny disposition."
  164. 07[15:20] * +Fire_Lily joins Storm.
  165. 07[15:21] * +Desert_Storm sits down and pulls out the magazines and scope. "Here, 130 rounds and a short range sight," she says whiping the optic clean with a rag, "This should make things a lot easier to hit."
  166. 07[15:21] * +Primer empties her normal magazines and fills the extended ones and places them within easy reach, after that she walks out, her buisness finished. Primer walks up to Stormy and Fire_Lily. "You all got what you came for?" She was a little uncertain on Lily's behalf, didn't seem to be much she could be interested in in there.
  167. [15:22] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 Rottingtail chuckles; "I can tell you're just a ray of colourful disposition. You need anything?"
  168. 07[15:22] * +Keen leans closer to Rottingtail. Still not used to the smell. Keen just tended to think of them as severe burn victims that walk around. And sometimes try to kill him.
  169. [15:24] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 Rottingtail glances at Keen; "Anything you're looking for? Wait, you use them fancy magical guns. hard to come by those are, and so is the ammo."
  170. 07[15:24] * +Desert_Storm nods, not looking up from her task.
  171. 07[15:24] * +Fire_Lily tries to make sure Primer does not see what she'd had Storm buy, and stashes them away.
  172. 07[15:25] * +Keen folds his hooves. "To be honest, I wouldn't have the caps to buy anything I wanted anyway. I just came by to ask if a ghoul with a bandaged head wound came by recently."
  173. 07[15:25] * +Wraith- responds to Rottingtail, "I know this sounds strange, but any Throwing Spears or Axes would be good."
  174. 07[15:25] * +Primer doesn't notice on accound of the obtrusive sunlight. "You know..." Naaah, Lily wouldn't want to buy a gun anyway... "Nevermind."
  175. [15:26] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 Rottingtail blinks; "No, not presently. Why, should we be on the lookout?"
  176. 07[15:26] * +Desert_Storm stows her things and gets up. She pats her pouches, now loaded with fun fire bullets. "I'd say this was worth the trip."
  177. [15:28] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 Rottingtail raises an eyebrow; "That -does- sound strange. We tend to stick with guns and bullets." Just a sec. He trots over to the pile and rummages around.
  178. 07[15:28] * +Wraith- replies, "Yeah. I wouldn't mind having any if you find em... Oh... try to keep a lookout for a Magical Energy Lance or some nice barding."
  179. [15:31] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 Rottingtail comes back with an axe in his teeth. It wasn't a throwing axe, it was bigger, and had a spike on the back of the head. "This do? Found it in what I think was an old Fire Station."
  180. 07[15:31] * +Fire_Lily lets out a relieved sigh and follows next to Primer. "So, what did you get?"
  181. 07[15:32] * +Keen gets rather worried in a hurry. "He would come from Gutterville ways. We found him around between there and Hovelhoof." He did not want to have successfully done brain surgery on a pony and then have them die on the way here.

  185. 06[15:33] * SilentBrony is now known as Wraith-
  186. 07[15:33] * +Primer shrugs. "Oh, nothing much. A few High-Ex for my thumper and a set of larger magazines for my gun."
  187. [15:33] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 Rottingtail nods; "Friendly or hostile?"
  188. 15[15:34] * +Karina practices with the HK33 a few times now that it had a suppressor before she puts it back in its place and walks out of hte building to meet up with Storm, Lily, and Primer
  189. 04[15:34] * +Primer nods at Karina. "It fits you." Refering to the assault rifle.
  190. 07[15:35] * +Keen "Friendly." He thinks about where he found him. "... Mostly Friendly."
  191. 07[15:35] * +Wraith- shakes his head and says to Rottingtail, "That Axe would be nice, but I ain't got the caps at the moment."
  192. 04[15:36] * +Desert_Storm looks at Karina's rifle too. It was a nice piece.
  193. [15:36] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 Rottingtail nods; "Head injuring makes me think he's a little addled? We'll keep an eye out for him."
  194. 07[15:36] * +Fire_Lily has no idea what Primer was saying, since she didn't know anything about guns apart from what Storm briefly showed her, but she'd glad the trip was productive.
  195. [15:37] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 Rottingtail looks back to Wraith-; "How much you got?"
  196. 15[15:38] * +Karina raises her eyebrow. "Out of all my guns you can see, this is the one you think fits me?" She sticks her head back through the door and looks at Wraith-. "How much?"
  197. 07[15:38] * +Wraith- responds, "Got about 600 caps." he looks at his Rebar club for a moment.
  198. 07[15:40] * +Wraith- asks the ghoul merchant, "How much would you pay for this fine club? It don't look pretty, but it's a very nice weapon."
  199. 02[15:41] * Smoulder ([email protected]) Quit (Connection closed)
  200. [15:42] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 Rottingtail nods; "You can have to axe for 600 caps plus the club. I'm feelin' nice since we got a good stock in anyways."
  201. 07[15:43] * +Wraith- responds back, "Sounds good." he takes off his club and exchanges it along with the caps to Rottingtail, taking the Fireaxe in trade.
  202. [15:45] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 Rottingtail tosses the club despite it's weight back over to the pile. "That conclude your business for today?"
  203. 07[15:47] * +Wraith- hefts the Fire axe and grins unsettlingly at it under his wrappings. Saying out, "I'm good for now." then turns and heads out with the rest of those that have already left.
  204. 07[15:47] * +Wraith- puts the axe away for now though, placing it where the rebar club went.
  205. 15[15:48] * +Karina shrugs and then looks back at Primer, Storm, and Lily.
  206. 07[15:48] * +Primer starts walking. "Alley oop."
  207. 07[15:48] * +Desert_Storm shrugs.
  208. 07[15:48] * +Wraith- says to the fire axe, "I'm calling you, 'Butcher Pete.'
  209. 04[15:48] * +Primer looks back at Karina. "Well, yes."
  210. 07[15:49] * +Keen picks up the pace and gives Primer a wing. He was either feeling affectionate, or creeped out that Wraith was now talking to an axe.
  211. 15[15:49] * +Karina "Any... particular reason?"
  212. 07[15:50] * +Primer stops and thinks for a bit. "Uhm... I can't think of any, it's just... you."
  213. 15[15:51] * +Karina "Oh... okay. Anyway, on to Cloudsdale... hopefully we can make it today."
  214. 07[15:51] * +Desert_Storm starts walking. She was eager to see this place for herself.
  215. 07[15:51] * +Fire_Lily follows in silence, trying to not feel guilty about keeping secrets. Terrible secrets.
  216. 07[15:52] * +Keen trots on and nuzzles Primer a little bit, oblivious to terrible secrets.
  217. 07[15:52] * +Primer murrs under the attention and nuzzles back.
  218. 07[15:52] * +Wraith- hums quietly, to himself 'The ants go marching.'
  219. [15:54] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 The group, with some new gear at their disposal, continues their march forward. Keen, for some strange reason, wants to take the group to Cloudsdale, or at the very least, where the greatest city in the sky used to be. As they reach the edge of Manehattan, perhaps he should tell them how far away that is.
  220. 06[15:55] * Arcane_Scroll is now known as Arcane_Scroll[A]
  221. 07[15:56] * +Keen coughs into his hoof. "Um. Sorry for the trip. It's a bit off of Manehattan. Right next to Ponyville, if you know it."
  222. 07[15:57] * +Primer shakes her head. "I don't know it. How far on hoof?"
  223. 15[15:57] * +Karina looks at Keen, then at her map, then back at Keen, then at the map, then back at Keen again. "A bit off?"
  224. 04[15:58] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 Karina's Pipbuck blinks and bleeps at her, showing a map of the greater Equestrian Capital area. Cloudsdale is marked, although the data is somwhat outdated, as the city no longer exists
  225. 07[15:59] * +Wraith- speaks out, "I don't really care how far it is, I just hope you all got plenty of rad-away and rad-x. It was hit pretty hard by the megaspells."
  226. 07[15:59] * +Desert_Storm nods slowly. "How long will it take?"
  227. 07[16:00] * +Fire_Lily gives Keen a look. "What she asked."
  228. 07[16:00] * +Primer sighs and wanders on. "This is gonna suck."
  229. 07[16:02] * +Keen taps his hoof to his chin. "Um. Well, we had trains and stuff, but on hoof or on wing..." He does some calculations in his head. "About a week's trot at a steady pace. Why?"
  230. 07[16:03] * +Desert_Storm frowns. "Yep, this is gonna suck."
  231. 15[16:05] * +Karina "This is insane..." She puts gets a heading and puts the pipbuck away. "You're insane." She stands back up and starts walking.
  232. 07[16:06] * +Wraith- speaks out, "You all wanted to impress the DJ don't you? Make him see you're all fighting." he speaks the next part in the most condencending manner possible, "Fight the good fight right?" he then continues normally , "Think of the possible ponies we could help for him."
  233. [16:06] <+Wraith-> (nix the fight part)
  234. 04[16:07] * +Desert_Storm takes flight and floats gingerly off the ground after Karina. "Well, no sense wasting time talking about it. Let's get going."
  235. 07[16:07] * +Fire_Lily sighs. This is not going to be a fun walk.
  236. 07[16:08] * +Primer looks down at Fire_Lily. "Yust tell me when you are getting tired, I'll give you a backride."
  237. 07[16:09] * +Fire_Lily smiles at Primer. "You sure...? You're not still recovering?"
  238. 07[16:09] * +Primer rolls her shoulder. "I can manage a little at a time."
  239. 07[16:09] * +Keen decides to stock up on food items before they start moving.

  242. 06[16:17] * Athilmar is now known as Ashen_Ward
  243. 07[16:17] * +Primer is moving moving moving along lets gkeep this thing going.
  244. 07[16:19] * +Desert_Storm is floating along, without a care in the world. Her rifle at the ready, a tune on her lips, and her head on a swivel. She liked it out here.
  245. [16:20] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 After stocking up on Provisions, the group heads out of the city and begins the long trek to the site where CLoudsdale used to be. The first two days are entirely uneventful, the barren wastes surrounding Manehattan being largely uninhabited in favour of the big city and it's potential treasures.
  246. 04[16:22] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 On the third day, Karina's Pipbuck alerts her with a message stating that they have found the edge of 'Splendid Valley'. From where the group is standing, they can see the glow of radiation. It's either small but close, or far away and VERY big.
  247. [16:24] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 The Radiation detector is also picking up trace amounts at this distance
  248. 07[16:24] * +Desert_Storm takes a peek through her scope.
  249. 07[16:26] * +Primer is walking along, taking one step ad a time... focusing on one step at a time. "Goddesses dammit... I 've never walked as far as this in my entire life..."
  250. [16:26] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 Through her Scope, Storm can see the glaring radioactive light of what is pretty obviously a megaspell crater at the far end of the valley. The place seems lifeless, and she can also spot tunnel entrances around the crater and valley.
  251. 06[16:26] * Hedge ([email protected]) has joined #FalloutEquestriaPNP
  252. 15[16:27] * +Karina heads so that she isn't, you know, walking through radiation.
  253. 07[16:27] * +Keen keeps going. He was tired, too, but wasn't going to show it. Splendid Valley. Sounded nice.
  254. 07[16:27] * +Desert_Storm lowers her rifle. "Yikes. That's bright."
  255. [16:28] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 Keen feels like he's being watched, bu there's nopony around
  256. 07[16:28] * +Wraith- is slightly disappointed they wouldn't be bathing in rads. Oh lovely rads, how warm you all are. He says sarcastically, "What? don't feel like bathing in that cozy glow? It's not too bad once you get used to it."
  257. 15[16:29] * +Karina "Yeah, it's also how you die a slow and painful death."
  258. 07[16:29] * +Fire_Lily doesn't want to get anywhere close to that radiation. "Nnnnooo thanks."
  259. 07[16:29] * +Keen looks around suspiciously. "Does anypony else feel like they're being watched?"
  260. 07[16:29] * +Desert_Storm turns to Keen. "No, should I?"
  261. 07[16:29] * +Primer looks around. "I dunno..."
  262. [16:30] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 There's nopony around that the group can see
  263. 07[16:31] * +Keen grumbles slightly and mumbles something about ghosts and peepshows.
  264. 15[16:31] * +Karina looks around and shakes her head. "No, Keen, you're still just crazy." She continues walking, staying away from that valley and heading towards Cloudsdale.
  265. 07[16:32] * +Desert_Storm avoids Splendid Valley like the plague. Eyes on the prize, Desert.
  266. 07[16:32] * +Wraith- hmphs. Old. so very old. So very ghoulish too... damn eyesight.
  267. 07[16:32] * +Primer bumps her head against Keen. "Let's keep our eyes open."
  268. [16:33] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 The group decides to avoid heading into the valley, instead continuing north and going around it. Despite Keen's bizarre sense of being watched, which persists most of the day, they never encounter anypony
  269. 04[16:33] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 However, near the end of the day, Dj P0N-3 comes through Karina's radio
  270. 15[16:34] * +Karina listens and walks.
  271. 07[16:36] * +Wraith- rolls his eyes. More sanctimonious bullshit from that DJ. Reminded him too much of pre-war propaganda.
  272. [16:36] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 "Gooooood evening Wastelanders, once again, this is DJ P0N-3. It;s time for somethign that rhymes with shoes, and often gives you the blues. That's right, it's time for... can't even read my own damn cue cards... the Flues! No sorry, that's the News."
  273. 07[16:36] * +Primer frowns at the end of the song, and listens half heartedly to the message.
  274. 02[16:38] * Chor ([email protected]) Quit (Quit: http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client)
  275. 07[16:38] * +Desert_Storm listens in. Maybe the DJ would mention how awesome they were.
  276. [16:39] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 "Remeber a few days ago I told you about that wierd gang of misfits that caught that nasty foal-killer? Well, they're at it again. I missed it at first, but they actually cleared out a raider nest a couple days back. Said raiders were the ones responsible for the death of a pony you might remember me calling the Arbu Acolyte. Always good to see a hero avenged folks."
  277. 07[16:40] * +Wraith- blinks and goes silent for a moment before asking out with a tone of disbelief, "How the fuck did he learn about that?"
  278. 07[16:40] * +Primer shakes her head. "Anypony else getting the feeling that we are a bit misunderstood..."
  279. 15[16:40] * +Karina blinks. Oh, he was talking about them again... oh and Wraith was right! They had killed one of the 'heroes'! She stops and turns around to look at the group. "When we get back, we're going to Tenpony."
  280. 07[16:41] * +Keen grumps a little bit. "How does he get to know about everything? Seriously, it's rather scary when you think about it."
  281. [16:41] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 Dj chuckles; "So, these strange folks are okay in my book. As it turns out, they're also the ones who broke up those skirmishes between the costumed wierdoes near Gutterville. Sounds like a bit more than coincidence, don't it?"
  282. 07[16:42] * +Wraith- responds to Keen, looking at him slightly, "I always thought most of what he said was pure bullshit."
  283. 07[16:43] * +Keen looks at Wraith and scratches his mane. "Only some of it. He's actually been rather spot-on with the reports on us."
  284. 07[16:43] * +Desert_Storm sighs. Whoever this pony was, he knew ponies. "Word spreads fast, I guess."
  285. 15[16:43] * +Karina looks at Keen. "Scary or not... I don't care so long as he notices our actions and theya ren't forgot." She looks at Primer. "Honestly dont' care -why- he likes us... all the better if it's because of some raiders we shot."
  286. 07[16:44] * +Wraith- turns away and speaks, "Still... strange... like we killed a bunch of raiders. They're not exactly the most socialable type."
  287. [16:44] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 "Remember children, Good ol' DJ is always watching, and I;ll always have your back. Now, for those who are the early to bed, early to rise type, here's a bit of Sweetie Belle to sing you to sleep."
  288. 07[16:46] * +Wraith- doesn't feel quite assured by such a comment from the DJ.
  289. 04[16:46] * +Primer walks on. "Well Kar, you may be right... still, he's giving us way too much credit."
  290. 15[16:47] * +Karina "If that's credit we can use to get a water talisman..." She turns around and resumes walking.
  291. 15[16:47] * +Karina "... I'll take it..."
  292. 04[16:47] * +Desert_Storm looks to Karina. "Still thinking about that?"
  293. 15[16:48] * +Karina nods. "Why?"
  294. 04[16:48] * +Primer turns her head to Karina. "A water talisman? Why do you want one of those?"
  295. 07[16:48] * +Desert_Storm smiles. "Well, I think you're crazy if you think they'd just give it to us. And I think you're crazier if you think you can steal one."
  296. 04[16:49] * +Fire_Lily also is wondering why Kar wants a water talisman
  297. 07[16:49] * +Wraith- blinks and listens in on the groups conversation. Water talisments? Stealing them?
  298. 04[16:50] * +Primer stops and swivels onto Karina. "Steal?" Her voice is sweet as newly poured honey.
  299. 15[16:51] * +Karina looks at Primer. "Because all of Manehatten as none and Tenpony has -four-. That's not something I can just ignore." She looks over at Desert_Storm. "Which is why I want to get the DJ to like us. With someone like him on our side, we'd probably have some more options to discuss." She looks back to Primer and blinks. "If there's no other way..."
  300. 04[16:51] * +Keen looks at Primer. Why was she putting on the charm right then? Eh. Probably trying to talk Karina out of it.
  301. 07[16:53] * +Desert_Storm thinks for a few seconds. "What, you think you could buy it off them?"
  302. 04[16:53] * +Keen turns towards Karina and nods his head appreciatively. Better to at least try to do things the right way than to let somepony who didn't want it take the blame.
  303. 07[16:53] * +Primer looks up into the cloud cover and contemplates this. "Hmmm..." Well, it had the spice... and if executed right it was quite the good deed... as long as it was done right. Primer turns and walks on, muttering to herself. "Hmm... gonna need a structural plan... rope.. going to need to get some bribe money... hehehe."
  304. 06[16:53] * Smooth-Jazz ([email protected]) has joined #FalloutEquestriaPNP
  305. 15[16:54] * +Karina "Buy one, convince them to sell the water they make... anything so that clean water to more people is a thing that can be done." She looks back at Primer and continues walking as well. "And probably that stealth cloak."
  306. 04[16:55] * +Wraith- squints at Karina and asks with a tone of disbelief, "You want a water talisment just to give out because you think others need it?"
  307. 15[16:56] * +Karina "Yes."
  308. 07[16:56] * +Wraith- asks, "And who exactly are you giving this to?"
  309. 07[16:58] * +Primer nods absentmindedly. "Yeah... the cloak, goota remember that." Primer continues in silence.
  310. 02[16:58] * +Desert_Storm ([email protected]) Quit (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)
  311. 15[16:58] * +Karina "I don't really know. There's too many people who need clean water int he rest of Manehatten to keep it locked up in the Tower, though."
  312. 02[16:59] * Mirage ([email protected]) Quit (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)
  313. 07[16:59] * +Keen scratches his mane and looks at Primer. "What are you talking about?" He mentions.
  314. 07[17:01] * +Primer blinks as Keen interrupts her. "Oh, nothing much, Sweetie. Just an intellectual exercise."
  315. 15[17:01] * +Karina snorts.
  316. 04[17:01] * +Wraith- looks at Karina for a moment. He wasn't sure if he /really/ believed her intentions... that had to be the most selfless thing he's heard anyone say in... a century... he turns away and says out, "Hmph. Whoever you give it to, they better think wise to guard that well. Word gets out they have it, they'll have the biggest target over their heads."
  317. 15[17:02] * +Karina sighs. "Yeah... I know. Keen already warned me about that... but we'll just have to figure out something, because I'm not just going to let this go."
  318. 07[17:02] * +Keen nods approvingly, rather pleased. He got himself a smart mare. A smart, funny, kind one that couldn't possibly do any wrong.
  319. 07[17:05] * +Primer continues to ponder how best to rip off one of their benefactors... then again, if they could buy it, even better. But just in case, have a plan to steal enything not nailed down.
  320. 06[17:06] * Menti|LoL is now known as Menti
  321. [17:07] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 The following day brings the group one day closer to their goal of reaching the Cloudsdale ruins (if there are any). However, as they draw into the hilly area nearing the base of the mountain range on Equestrai's easten side...
  322. 06[17:10] * Hedge is now known as Dust_Off
  323. 06[17:11] * Dust_Off is now known as Hedge
  324. [17:13] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 Her instincts honed by her recent adventure novel reading, LIly manages to spot a cave in one of the nearby hills. It looks like a smugglers den, or pirate hideaway of some kind. Totally.
  325. [17:13] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 Keen spots it too, but he`s more inclined to think of it as an old cave or possibly an empty shelter of some kind
  326. 07[17:14] * +Keen points out the cave entrance. "Hey. There's a cavern over there. We could probably set up there for a little while. Maybe find something to assist resupply."
  327. [17:15] <+Keen> (assist and*)
  328. 07[17:15] * +Primer nods wearily. She was an earthpony, sure, but she wasn't used to this kind of hike across noponys land.
  329. 07[17:15] * +Fire_Lily was about to point out the cave when Keen did. Instead she goes for: "Anything's better than walking so much."
  330. 15[17:17] * +Karina had spent a long time as a nomad. But that was years ago. Even she was starting to tire out a bit, though she was far from worn out. She looks back at Keen then up at the cave entrance. "Yeah... sure... we can take a break for a few hours..."
  331. 04[17:18] * +Wraith- trots over to Karina. Thinking over the zebra mare's words since they've traveled, he normally didn't ask others their business... but he was their companion... he thinks. And he really didn't buy the answer. No one was that selfless these days. No one just gave up something so precious. Actual Clean water? Perpetually? He speaks to her quietly, "Hey. I want to ask you something."
  332. 07[17:18] * +Keen pulls out his automatic beam weapon and floats inside. Didn't need to set off anything that some paranoid survivalist pulled together. But then again, what did that make him?
  333. [17:18] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 As Keen goes up to the Cavern, he notices animal prints. Big ones.
  334. 07[17:19] * +Wraith- adds, "Once we know we're safe for the moment." He trots after Keen, and starts to sneak after him.
  335. 15[17:20] * +Karina blinks at Wraith. "O...kay..." She rubs her now rarely hooded face with her fetlock then goes to follow Keen.
  336. 07[17:20] * +Keen lands and raises his hoof. Fff- "Tracks." He whispered, looking back to his crew. "Big ones."
  337. 07[17:20] * +Primer pulls up her shotgun, loaded for bear.
  338. 15[17:20] * +Karina "What kind of tracks?" She steps forward to look at them.

  341. 07[17:22] * +Keen waves his hooves around. "I don't know! They're just here! And scary!" He bordered on the fine line of whispering and shouting. He tried to calm down. "What do you think they are?"
  342. 06[17:23] * Damhoof is now known as Beaky
  343. 15[17:23] * +Karina studies the tracks for a moment. "Bears... big... really big bear."
  344. 07[17:23] * +Wraith- glares angrily at Keen and says, "Be... quiet...."
  345. 07[17:24] * +Wraith- whispers this.

  350. [17:26] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 There's a deep rumble from within the cave. It's either growling, or snoring
  351. 07[17:27] * +Primer walks carefully forward... sneakily.
  352. 15[17:27] * +Karina sighs. "Why are we-" She blinks at the sound and says very hushed, "Oh crap..." She pulls out her pistol.
  353. 07[17:28] * +Fire_Lily pulls out the stuffed Ursa Primerhad given her. She shows it to everyone with a questioning look on her face. She mouths the word "this?"
  354. 06[17:29] * TenMihara|GM sets mode: +v Desert_Storm
  355. 07[17:29] * +Desert_Storm doesn't like the sound of that. She also doesn't like being in a cave. She draws her pistol. It's about time this thing earned it's keep.
  356. 15[17:29] * +Karina sneakily follows Wraith-.
  357. 07[17:29] * +Primer looks at the toy Fire_Lily is holding and nods.... then tilts her head in a 'maybe' motion.
  358. 07[17:31] * +Fire_Lily puts the toy away. She tries to be as stealthy as possible, and uses her magic to help.
  359. 06[17:31] * Chor ([email protected]) has joined #FalloutEquestriaPNP
  360. [17:31] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 As the group continues into the cave, they notice that it seems to be decorated. Pelts of other animals hung on the wall, firefly lanterns lighting the place
  361. 15[17:32] * +Karina stops and whispers, "A bear didn't do this..."
  362. [17:33] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 There's another rumble and a shadow can be seen moving forward. It looks pretty big, and it's coming around the corner, casting a shadow in the Firefly light
  363. 07[17:33] * +Desert_Storm stays in the back. She wasn't going to risk altering whatever did this to them by tripping over her hooves or something.
  364. 07[17:33] * +Wraith- silently motions to the group to be silent, by waving a hoof across his neck in a lateral fashion.
  365. 07[17:34] * +Primer obeys and is as silent as a mouse fart.
  366. 07[17:34] * +Wraith- stops and crouches down. Readying himself to see what is coming along.
  367. 15[17:34] * +Karina ~disappears~
  368. [17:34] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 A Massive, mutated, savage looking bear comes around the corner. It seems to be trotting straight forward, and in it's mouth is... what is that?
  369. [17:35] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 Those with keen eyes can spot what looks like an old, slightly drooled on book in the bear's mouth.
  370. [17:36] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 Primer can even make out the cover from here; 'Daring-Do and the Quest for the Sapphire Stone'
  371. 07[17:36] * +Primer tilts her head. What the Tartarus?
  372. 15[17:36] * +Karina blinks. Why is a bear carrying a book?
  373. 07[17:36] * +Keen tries to be stealthy. He really does. But he's not exactly of a sneaky demeanor.
  374. 07[17:36] * +Wraith- wonders when Brahmin suddenly grew long fangs and fur...
  375. 07[17:37] * +Desert_Storm hugs the wall. Holy shit that was a huge bear.
  376. 07[17:37] * +Primer backs up a little... this wasn't like it seemed, there was way more to this picture. She motions for evetypony to back off a little.
  377. [17:38] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 The bear cocks an ear in the direction of the party. It sets the book down next to what looks likean outhouse. It then turns towards the group and stands on its hind legs, lumbering forward.
  378. 07[17:38] * +Keen looks at the party with his signature "I've got a stupid idea" look on his face.
  379. 07[17:39] * +Primer motions frantically now. Back up! She spots Keen's look and says to herself. 'Aw hell naw!'
  380. 07[17:39] * +Desert_Storm levels her pistol... no... she needs something bigger. Out came the rifle.
  381. 15[17:40] * +Karina stands up and puts her pistol away.
  382. 15[17:40] * +Karina effectively comes out of sneak...
  383. 07[17:40] * +Keen motions them to stand back. He was going to try a very, very stupid idea.
  384. [17:40] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 The bear lumbers forward. It seems to squint into the dark tunnels, looking for something
  385. 07[17:41] * +Fire_Lily is defintiely backing up. This... is kinda scary.
  386. 07[17:41] * +Wraith- is just... so oblivious to everything around him... wait... did his eye fall out?
  387. 07[17:41] * +Keen takes a deep breath and slowly, wobbly-leggedly, trots out in the open.
  388. [17:42] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 The giant, pseudo-bear looks down at Keen with a raised eyebrow. "Do you mind? This is a private residence and you've interrupted my morning consitutional."
  389. 07[17:42] * +Desert_Storm is probably going to shoot Keen someday and save who ever he was suicidally walking towards that day the trouble of- "What."
  390. 07[17:42] * +Primer falls flat on her face. What the buck!!!
  391. 07[17:42] * +Fire_Lily stops. Is horribly confused.
  392. 15[17:42] * +Karina walked out to stand next to Keen. "You're a bear."
  393. 07[17:43] * +Keen can't really say anything. Well, he didn't quite know what he expected, but it wasn't a talking bear.
  394. 07[17:43] * +Desert_Storm steps forward and puts away the rifle. "Uh....."
  395. 07[17:43] * +Keen simply had his mouth agape. "Um. Dah. Guh. Hi. I'm Keen."
  396. 07[17:44] * +Wraith- blinks and cannot believe his ears... really? He puts his fire axe away and begins to rub his milky failing eyes.
  397. 07[17:44] * +Primer 's brain has rebooted due to massive -Wut.- Please kick your DemoMare in the side of the head to activate primary OS.
  398. [17:46] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 The bear blinks. "Is there any particular reason why you've come into my home? If you're here to rob me I will have to get violent, and I'd really rather not this early in the morning."
  399. 07[17:46] * +Desert_Storm blinks so many times, her eyelids hurt. "Uh... Sorry, I think we'll be leaving now." She makes for the door.
  400. [17:46] <+Desert_Storm> Entrance*
  401. 15[17:47] * +Karina shakes her head. "Nope. Thought it was an empty cave. Robbing you wouldn't be a proper way to behave." She shakes her head then turns to follow Desert_Storm out.
  402. 07[17:47] * +Keen wipes his face. Right. You have to admit, this isn't the -weirdest- thing that's happened. He manages to stand up tall, still shaking in his hooves a little bit. "Um, Sorry. My companions and I just wanted to rest for a few hours. We just came from Manehattan."
  403. 07[17:47] * +Wraith- leaves the talking to the preachy pegasus. Considering he was just the very image of conflict.
  404. 07[17:48] * +Fire_Lily steps forward hesitantly up to the others. "You're not... gonna eat us?"
  405. [17:51] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 The bear looks curious; "Travelers are you? And from such a logn way away. You're at least four days away from Manehattan." He looks down at the filly; "Well, if you had come here to cause trouble maybe, but you're conversing rather than shooting at me despite having the weapons to do so."
  406. 07[17:52] * +Primer feels guilty and shuffles her hooves... Her mane glows red from embarrasment.
  407. 07[17:52] * +Desert_Storm stops. Okay. This was officially too weird, but she'd stick around to listen.
  408. 06[17:54] * Arcane_Scroll[A] is now known as Arcane_Scroll
  409. [17:54] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 The bear speaks again; "If you're just looking for a bit of respite, I wouldn't be a good host if I turned you away, particularly after such a long trip. You could have knocked first though."
  410. 15[17:54] * +Karina stops when Desert_Storm does and looks back at the rest and blinks. "Guys? Can we just let the nice bear be? If we just go I'm sure there'll be plenty of other things to see..."
  411. 07[17:54] * +Keen hung his head as he tried to focus his thoughts. "Um. We didn't notice a door."
  412. [17:55] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 The bears facepaws; "Must have blown away again."
  413. 07[17:55] * +Wraith- responds simply, "All the same to me."
  414. 07[17:55] * +Desert_Storm turns around fully. "Uh... Well... he is giving us a place to stay."
  415. 15[17:55] * +Karina blinks. "Wait, who, hey, you're offering to let us stay?"
  416. 15[17:55] <+Karina> woah*
  417. [17:56] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 The bear shrugs; "I know what it's like to travel a long ways. I like to vacation at the beach. Wanna see my seashell collection?"
  418. 07[17:56] * +Fire_Lily settles for just staring blankly. This was the weirdest thing she's ever experienced.
  419. 15[17:57] * +Karina "Sure."
  420. 07[17:57] * +Wraith- thinks to himself, "Not particularly."
  421. 07[17:57] * +Desert_Storm nods slooooooowly. "Suuuuuure."
  422. 07[17:58] * +Keen nods. He's almost getting used to the weird.
  423. 07[17:58] * +Primer just curls up in a corner, pulling her cloak around herself for comfort. This was way too much weird for her to handle right now... and the comment about blasting first had gotten to her.
  424. [18:00] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 The bear smiles, showing way too many teeth. "Name's Harry. It's been a while since I had company."
  425. 07[18:01] * +Wraith- trots up and eyes the bear for a moment then says simply, "Hey." he then asks, "So... you've always been able to talk?"
  426. 15[18:01] * +Karina blinks. "My... what big teeth you have..."
  427. 07[18:01] * +Desert_Storm blinks. "Hello Harry. I'm... I'm..."
  428. 07[18:02] * +Keen chuckles nervously. "Um. I'm Keen. Keen Shine. I'm from Cloudsdale. I just wanted to go back home."
  429. [18:04] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 The bear shrugs; "For as long as I can remember anyways. Don't know abotu Cloudsdale though; never heard of it."
  430. 07[18:04] * +Wraith- mutters, "That's because it's probably gone."
  431. 07[18:05] * +Desert_Storm steps forward and joins Keen. "So... how long have you been here?"
  432. 07[18:05] * +Fire_Lily decides to forget trying to think about the bear logically. She takes out her book and starts reading to take her mind off it.
  433. 15[18:06] * +Karina thinks they should settle the most important question first. She looks up at Harry. "Hey. Kar. Don't suppose you have water?"
  434. [18:08] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 Harry looks contemplative; "Since I was born I think."
  435. 07[18:08] * +Primer stands briefly and moves over to curl up around Fire_Lily... she needed some company right now. "Not interrupting, am I?"
  436. [18:08] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 Harry catches sight of Lily's Book; "You read them too?" He retrieves his copy of the book that just so happened to be the predecessor to hers
  437. 07[18:10] * +Desert_Storm takes a look around. For a bear... this place wasn't that bad. She eyes him cautiously as his attention is diverted.
  438. 06[18:10] * Arcane_Scroll is now known as Bones
  439. [18:10] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 Some of the alleged Seashell collection is displayed on the walls
  440. 15[18:11] * +Karina clears her throat, wondering if she'd have to repeat her question.
  441. 07[18:11] * +Desert_Storm wonders why it's an alleged collection.
  442. 07[18:11] * +Desert_Storm ... and takes a closer look.
  443. 04[18:12] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 Harry directs Karina to a small spring at the back of the cave, but seems more interested in Lily's book.
  444. 07[18:12] * +Wraith- looks at the various decorations, but doesn't think much of it. He leans against a wall and pulls out his aged combat knife, twirling about his fetlock, then examining it and unwrapping a strip of his wrappings around his body and begins to polish the knife itself with it.
  445. 06[18:13] * Bones is now known as Arcane_Scroll
  446. 15[18:13] * +Karina walks back to the spring, hoping it's clean water, and starts lapping it up anyway.
  447. 06[18:14] * Arcane_Scroll is now known as Bones
  448. 07[18:14] * +Fire_Lily looks at the bear nervously. "It... was a gift. I... never really got to read anything... for fun before this."
  449. 04[18:14] * +Wraith- notes Karina was alone finally and stops polishing his knife. Putting it away, and re-wrapping the strap, he trots over to the zebra mare and says quietly to her, "So. I gotta ask."
  450. 15[18:15] * +Karina laps up the water. "Ask" *lap* "what?" *lap*
  451. 06[18:15] * Bones is now known as Arcane_Scroll
  452. 07[18:16] * +Keen floats up to look at the seashells. He didn't know a lot about them other than that they were the discarded exoskeletons of dead sealife. There must be a lot of shells nowadays. "Yeah. My sister borrowed it from my other sister and didn't give that particular one back." He spotted the spring and brought forth his empty bottles. "What did you read up to?"
  453. 06[18:16] * Arcane_Scroll is now known as Bones
  454. [18:16] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 Harry nods; "I actually have the whole series, although they aren't really in as good shape as that one."
  455. 06[18:17] * Bones is now known as Arcane_Scroll
  456. 04[18:17] * +Wraith- asks Karina quietly, "Why /exactly/ do you want to give this water talisment away?"
  457. 07[18:17] * +Desert_Storm examines the shells. They were kind of pretty.
  458. 07[18:18] * +Primer has fallen asleep, wrapped up around Fire_Lily.
  459. 07[18:18] * +Fire_Lily is interested. "The... whole series?"
  460. 07[18:19] * +Keen tried to talk shop with the bear. "Ugh. Did you also read the Serrated Sanctuary? I personally think that one didn't count among the series."
  461. [18:20] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 Harry nods; "Read them all. Found them in an old wagon on my travels once. My personal favourite is the 'Staff of Star-Swirl', although the 'Temple of Nightmare Moon' is good too."
  462. 07[18:20] * +Fire_Lily is jealous. She'd like to be able to read them all.
  463. 07[18:21] * +Desert_Storm shrugs. As interesting as seashells were... She plops down and starts cleaning her glasses.
  464. 15[18:22] * +Karina stops, her nose and tongue still in the water. She slowly lifts her head up, licking her lips, then looks at Wraith-. "My parents died in front of me, when I was ten years old, beause we had almost no clean water or food. It was a very ugly, slow, and painful death. For both of them. That death isn't something anybody should see. And if there's any way I possibly can, I'm going to make sure that as many as possible don't ever have to experience it... either the death or just being forced to sit there and watch them die, like me."
  465. [18:24] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 Harry notes; "If you have a map I can show you where the wagon I found the books is. Not sure if there will be many others still intact, but it couldn't hurt."
  466. 07[18:25] * +Wraith- looks at the zebra mare in thought for a moment. Ouch. That was a pretty good reason. So used to the radiation.. and needing it at a lot of times, he tended to forget exactly that it was very much a horrendously harsh ever-present threat in the wasteland. He says back in a respectful tone, "I'm sorry to hear." he looks down and continues to think on the words.
  467. 07[18:27] * +Fire_Lily looks very excited. She gives Keen a pleading look. "...Please?"
  468. 07[18:28] * +Keen rolls his eyes facetiously. "Fine." Besides, with any luck, he would find something to keep his mind off of how much his hooves hurt.
  469. 07[18:28] * +Wraith- decides to focus on the manner at hoof for the moment. He wanted some tactical analysis on this area. Trotting over to Harry he asks, "So, what is around this area? What's dangerous, like would even make you worry about?"
  470. 07[18:29] * +Primer turns in her sleep and clutches Fire_Lily tight, muttering a little. "...mrmm... don't...go..."
  471. 07[18:30] * +Fire_Lily jumps a little in surprise. She turns to look at Primer, and gives her a comforting hug.
  472. [18:31] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 Harry shakes his head at Wraith; "Not much around here I need to worry about. Mostly just smaller game that I hunt and eat." He walks away from Lily and comes back with his copy of Sapphire Stone, which he sets in front of her. "I'd like to thank you all; you're the first company I've had in a while, and entertaining visitors is nice. I;ve read it a hundred times anyways."
  473. 07[18:32] * +Wraith- rethinks his question then decides a different angle of approach. He trots over to him and asks, "So what do you normally hunt down then?"
  474. [18:33] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 Harry looks back to Wraith; "Dogs, deer, big bugs. One time I fought a manticore. Tasty, but rare, and not really worth the struggle if you can help it."
  475. 02[18:33] * Hedge ([email protected]) Quit (Connection closed)
  476. 06[18:33] * Hedge ([email protected]) has joined #FalloutEquestriaPNP
  477. 07[18:34] * +Wraith- asks, "There's never any other ponies and such that come by?"
  478. [18:34] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 harry shakes his head; "A couple of times, but they were looking for loot and tended to be shooty."
  479. 07[18:35] * +Wraith- thinks for a moment, then says, "Alright thanks Harry." he then looks around the cave for anything resembling barding or clothing or weapons that the bear may have stored over his life-time.
  480. 07[18:36] * +Fire_Lily looks wide-eyed at the bear. "You're... giving it to me?"
  481. [18:36] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 Harry nods; "Yes. Like I said, I've missed having company."
  482. 07[18:36] * +Desert_Storm shrugs. "Well, we're thankful for your hospitality."
  483. 07[18:37] * +Fire_Lily hesitates a moment, then detaches herself from Primer so she can give the bear a hug. "Thank you...!"
  484. 04[18:37] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 The spring in the cave Karina is drinking from is clean, filtered by sandstone caves in the area
  485. 02[18:38] * Hedge ([email protected]) Quit (Quit: Leaving)
  486. 07[18:38] * +Primer curls into a tight ball as Fire_Lily leaves.
  487. [18:38] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 Harry pats the foal; "You're welcome." He then shows Karian the location of the book wagon on the Pipbuck. It wasn't that far from Cloudsdale actually
  488. 07[18:39] * +Fire_Lily smiles and returns to Primer, cuddling up to her as she puts the book away.
  489. 07[18:41] * +Desert_Storm remembers something. "So Harry, you said that you've been here since you were born... Where's your family?"
  490. 07[18:42] * +Primer hugs Lily close in her sleep. Nuzzling the filly's ears affectionalty. "...mrm..sis...zzzZZzzz"
  491. [18:43] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 Harry shakes his head; "Don't have a family. Been alone a long time."
  492. 07[18:43] * +Fire_Lily dozes off with Primer.
  493. 07[18:44] * +Desert_Storm saddens a little. "I'm sorry to hear that. Like... before the war?"
  494. 07[18:44] * +Wraith- hmphs. And sees the smoothcoats are going to sleep once more. He goes over and stands guard near the opening that leads to the cave entrance and just keeps his watch silently.
  495. [18:45] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 Harry shrugs; "No idea. A long time."
  496. 07[18:46] * +Desert_Storm nods and slips her glasses into a vest pocket. "Well, thanks again, for letting us stay."
  497. [18:49] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 The group spends the night with Harry the Bear. The talking bear with a cave fixed up so nice it seems like a house. Stranger things have happened? Only occasionally
  498. 15[18:49] * +Karina sorts through the map on the pipbuck now that they were resting, memorizing it and the new location she'd just been shown. She walks back over to Wraith- at some point during the night and speaks quietly. "Why so curious?"
  499. 06[18:50] * Beaky is now known as Green
  500. 04[18:51] * +Wraith- looks at Karina and responds, "Because I've never heard anyone talk about using something so precious in such a selfless way. I really didn't believe you at first... but now, I can see why." He looks downcast and says thoughtfully, "It... makes me think about myself and what I've done since I became a ghoul."
  501. 15[18:52] * +Karina bites her lip and sits down. "Good thoughts or bad ones?"
  502. 07[18:54] * +Wraith- looks away from the mare towards the cave and says, "More like... a wasted life." he speaks grimly with a heavy tone of regret, "You've taken something bad in your life and used it to do something really good. Me on the other hoof... I did the opposite."
  503. 15[18:55] * +Karina "Took something good and did something bad, or just sat around and wallowed in what you had? If it's the second one, I spent about eight years doing that too, so I already know it's sad."
  504. 07[18:58] * +Wraith- responds, "When the world ended. I... tried to find my previous life. When I found I couldn't go back to it, I... I didn't know what to do. Everything I fought so hard and believed so much in went up in flames... literally. Then... I saw the world take a turn for the worst... and these fucking... slavers... raiders... they started popping up. Even, 'decent' ponies didn't want anything to do with me for being a ghoul."
  505. 07[18:58] * +Wraith- adds, "It didn't matter to them that at one point in my life, I would've died trying to save them..."
  506. 15[19:01] * +Karina "Those are the types who generally think the same way about those with stripes..." She pauses, then looks over at Wraith- for the first time. "I know it's worth nothing, but I'm sorry."
  507. 04[19:02] * +Wraith- looks back at Karina and asks in a semi-cold tone, "For what?"
  508. 15[19:03] * +Karina "Reminding you about those things. I tend to do it just by being seen. I do the same thing constantly to Keen..."
  509. 04[19:05] * +Wraith- looks away and speaks, slightly soft for once, "You can't run away from the past Karina. Just... got to look forward to the future. But I don't have anything to look forward to. At least... maybe now I do." he looks back to the zebra.
  510. 15[19:08] * +Karina cocks her head just a tiny bit. How the heck did she ever turn into pre-war broken ponies' shining beacon of light and hope? "Maybe you do..." She stands back up. "You should try getting some sleep too. I know you're a ghoul... but no sleep can't possibly be healthy..." She turns around to head back into the cave.

  513. [19:09] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 The following day sees the party resuming their trek to Cloudsdale feeling much more well rested. Along the way, they come accross what looks like an abandoned Pre-War town. Most of it looks to be deteriorated, but a few prominent buildings look to be intact
  514. 06[19:10] * Pantzar ([email protected]) has joined #FalloutEquestriaPNP
  515. 07[19:13] * +Keen shakes his canteen upside-down and notices it's running rather low. Like, really low. "Well, since it worked out so well the last time, what do we say about trying to loot this place." What could go wrong? An alfalfa monster that loves foals? A storm of chocolate milk? A super-duper laser gun falling from the sky?
  516. 07[19:13] * +Desert_Storm flies a little higher to get a better look.
  517. 07[19:14] * +Fire_Lily is dreary. She yawns and rolls over.
  518. 07[19:14] * +Fire_Lily drowsy* because words.
  519. 15[19:15] * +Karina sighs. "Suuuuure... why not?" She checks the pipbuck to find out where they are.
  520. 07[19:16] * +Desert_Storm calls pretty loudly towards the city. "Hello?"
  521. [19:17] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 The town looks to be completely empty. The buildings remaining intact seem to be a Grocery, a Police Station, and a Stable-Tec Outlet
  522. 07[19:17] * +Wraith- looks about the city then turns up and says out angrily, "Are you a fucking idiot? You have no idea if there's raiders here or not."
  523. 07[19:17] * +Desert_Storm heads for the Police Station and shrugs. "Whatever."
  524. 02[19:18] * Pantzar ([email protected]) Quit (Connection closed)
  525. 07[19:18] * +Wraith- facehoofs and grumbles, "Fucking amatuers..."
  526. 15[19:19] * +Karina "And if there's raiders they'll just come rushing out straight into our guns... exactly like the last ones..." She puts the pipbuck away and pulls out her pistol before creeping towards the town herself.
  527. 04[19:19] * +Wraith- decides to give the sneaking routine another try and sneaky-sneaks into the town along with Karina.
  528. 07[19:20] * +Desert_Storm isn't an ametuer.
  529. 15[19:20] * +Karina thinks Desert_Storm could've fooled her.
  530. 04[19:20] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 The town is empty. Karina's Pipbuck has labeled it 'Maneford'
  531. 07[19:21] * +Desert_Storm draws her pistol and pushes open the door of the Station. "Hello?"
  532. 15[19:21] * +Karina looks back when the pipbuck beeps and checks the name of the town. She looks at Wraith-, Keen too if he followed her. "Maneford sound familiar?"
  533. 07[19:21] * +Wraith- thinks for a /sniper/ that reveals her position... agrees. Not Amatuerish... Just plain idiotic.
  534. 07[19:22] * +Desert_Storm doesn't seem to give a shit.
  535. 07[19:22] * +Fire_Lily hugs Primer by the back and sits up, whispering. "What's going on...?"
  536. [19:22] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 The station is empty but for a few old, dusty skeletons
  537. 07[19:23] * +Wraith- shakes his head and says, "Doesn't really ring a bell. If I have been here before, it must have been a pretty boring visit."
  538. 07[19:23] * +Wraith- whispers this damn it.
  539. 07[19:23] * +Desert_Storm picks around through the station for anything that might look like an ammo box, gun locker, or shiny thing.
  540. 15[19:24] * +Karina shrugs and heads for the grocery store, peeking her head in and looking around inside of it.
  541. 07[19:24] * +Fire_Lily groans and hops down, stretching, to take a look around.
  542. 04[19:25] * +Wraith- follows Karina. Combat Knife at the ready incase something decides to surprise them.
  543. [19:26] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 Desert_Storm finds her way to the back of the station, where lockers with a variety of sized Police Armour. There's also a gun cabinet with two ammo boxes on top of it
  544. 07[19:26] * +Desert_Storm slowly opens the gun locker.
  545. [19:30] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 The locker contains one .308 Caliber Sniper Rifle, two 10mm PIstols, and three batons
  546. 07[19:31] * +Desert_Storm smirks. "Hello there."
  547. 07[19:33] * +Desert_Storm hefts the rifle from it's cas. Oh, it had been a very long time since she'd held one of these. The ammo boxes intrigued her too. She pushed open the door again. "Lily? Lily, I need a hoof in here." There's a big goofy smile on her face.
  548. 07[19:33] * +Keen looks around the place. He had no idea what this town was. Was it around in his time? Did he just pass by it? Where were they?
  549. 07[19:33] * +Fire_Lily finishes stretching and makes her way over to Storm. "Yeah...?"
  550. [19:34] <+Desert_Storm> (( Suddenly past tense. = | ))
  551. 07[19:34] * +Desert_Storm waves her over. "I have some locks that need picked."
  552. 15[19:35] * +Karina takes a look around the grocery store and literally pounces on the case of Sparkle Cola, immediately popping the top off one and chugging it.
  553. [19:35] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 The .308 Rifle happens to feel rather light
  554. 07[19:36] * +Keen checks out the Stable-Tec outlet and suddenly has a pang of memory of Cookie. Back when he at least seemed optimistic. And alive.
  555. 07[19:36] * +Wraith- blinks and shakes his head, saying sarcastically, "Freaking addict." then looks around eyeing any traps, or hazards.
  556. 07[19:36] * +Fire_Lily yawns a bit then nods, pulling out her lockpicking supplies to get to work.
  557. 07[19:37] * +Wraith- searches for a bit and is relieved that this building was secure. He stops sneaking and looks throughout the cash registers, looking for offices for safes and such.
  558. 15[19:38] * +Karina goes around and stuffs everything else in the grocery store she could take into pockets in her cloak while drinking a second cola.
  559. 15[19:41] * +Karina "Best store ever..." She takes another drink then puts the cola in her mouth and heads over to the police station.
  560. 07[19:42] * +Wraith- smiles under his wrappings.. Beautiful caps and pre-war bits. Might as well check the garbage bin too... maybe some cigarette packs or cartons as well... or some more lose caps.
  561. [19:42] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 Inside the Stable-Tec Outlet, Keen can see a few shelves lines with arcano-tec bits and bobs, most of them no longer functional, a workbench off to the side, a counter with a register on it a a storage room door behind it
  562. [19:43] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 Wraith finds 3 Cartons and 4 Packs of Cigarettes
  563. 07[19:44] * +Desert_Storm pulls the armor off the top shelf and puts it on the floor. While Lily works, she sizes her up. This one looks like it might fit.
  564. [19:44] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 Fire_Lily once again shows herself to be a supreme Locksmith, opening all three boxes with only one broken pin. Two of them contain 10mm ammo, but the third is ammo obviously meant for the SNiper Rifle
  565. 07[19:44] * +Keen checks out the storage room door after checking the shelves for anything interesting. Maybe a little arcane bauble that reminds him of home, or maybe a game to play on the Pip-Buck.
  566. 07[19:44] * +Fire_Lily frowns a little because of the broken pin, but smiles at her ease with the rest of the lockpicking. "There. All done!"
  567. 02[19:45] * Waak ([email protected]) Quit (Quit: ChatZilla 0.9.87 [Firefox 13.0.1/20120614114901])
  568. [19:45] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 Keen doesn't find any games, but he does manage to find a couple more Spark Batteries. There's also an abundance of Scrap Metal and Scrap Electronics (6 each). There's also some Wonderglue and Duct Tape (3 each) at the workbench
  569. 07[19:45] * +Wraith- says in a very satisfied tone, "Fucking score." He stashes every cigarette container. He looks for a lighter or perhaps some matches... c'mon store, Ghoulie needs a new lighter.
  570. 07[19:45] * +Desert_Storm scoops up the .308 ammo and gives Lily a half hug. "Nice work."
  571. [19:46] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 THere's a note in the .308 and one of the 10mm Ammo boxes 'New Stuff the Military surplus sent us for testing. Apparently the bullets are enchanted to give them a little extra punch'
  572. 15[19:47] * +Karina looks at the armor Desert_Storm is holding as well as the 10mm ammo.
  573. 07[19:47] * +Desert_Storm 's smile widens. "Awesome."
  574. 07[19:48] * +Keen hefts a battery up in the air and gives it a few experimental tosses before stuffing them into his saddlebag. Now for the storage room.
  575. 15[19:49] * +Karina dumps the 10mm ammo alongside the rest of hers, separating the pretty ones from the not-pretty ones.
  576. 07[19:50] * +Fire_Lily smiles. Damn right nice work!
  577. 07[19:50] * +Desert_Storm holds up a vest and looks to Lily. "Here, try this on."
  578. [19:51] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 One of the Police Bardings looks like it would fit Lily. They must have had a diminuative mare on the squad
  579. 07[19:51] * +Wraith- manages to score a decent looking stainless steel lighter... Oh this was just their day today. Leaving Manehatten was probably one of the best things they've done so far. Pulling out a cigarette from one of his packs, he removes his mouth wrappings, revealing his ghoulish and partially missing lips, then lights the cigarette and begins to puff on it. Ohhh satisfying... even if he couldn't feel it in it's entirety. He then leaves
  580. [19:51] <+Wraith-> He then leaves and follows into the Police Station.
  581. 07[19:51] * +Fire_Lily gives it a look and tries it on. It wasn't the most... appealing thing to look at ever, but...
  582. [19:53] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 The Storage Room is locked, and marked with a sign that says 'Brightshot Only; all others keep out'
  583. 15[19:54] * +Karina "We're rich..."
  584. 15[19:54] * +Karina "Again."
  585. 07[19:55] * +Desert_Storm nods. "I am a happy pony."
  586. 07[19:56] * +Wraith- trots over to the group in the police station, smoking that cigarette, and looks about the mares and filly. He asks, "Oh, police barding. Not bad." he then examines the quality of each suit.
  587. 07[19:56] * +Keen looks at the door disapprovingly. Why you do this, door? Why did so many ponies keep their stuff locked away, and why is there never, -ever- a key around?
  588. 07[19:56] * +Fire_Lily looks her new armor over. It fits... alright. She isn't sure she likes the look, though. She wraps her cloak closer around. At least this will cover it up a bit.
  589. 15[19:56] * +Karina looks at her new sniper rifle then at Desert_Storm herself. "Say... you still need the other one?"
  590. 07[19:58] * +Keen checks behind the counter, checks under the rug. Not that he was opposed to opening things the Lily way, but he imagined that they were sort of busy.
  591. 07[19:58] * +Desert_Storm nods. "Yes. The other one's for bigger, armored targets. It's got a little more kick. This one," she motions to the new one, "Is lighter and easier to use on the move."
  592. 15[19:59] * +Karina nods. "Oh."
  593. [19:59] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 Keen finds an old, rusty Key inside the Cash Register, along with 20 caps worth of pre-war bits, and another 10 caps on top of that.
  594. [19:59] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 There's also a safe behind the cash register
  595. 07[20:02] * +Desert_Storm gives Lily another hug. She was a little too excited about this. She trots from the Station with a spring in her step and unfurls her wings. "Today is a good day." she said definitively.
  596. 07[20:02] * +Fire_Lily is inclined to agree. Today IS a good day.
  597. 07[20:02] * +Keen looks at the key and underneath the cash register. Oh. Well. I guess there sometimes was a key around. He went and try the key on the locked door and paused for a second. He gave a sigh and then tossed it back into the register. "Lily! Come here!" He shouted.
  598. 07[20:03] * +Fire_Lily turns toward Keen's voice, and heads off that way. When she reaches him she asks, "Yeah?"
  599. 07[20:03] * +Wraith- notes the bardings were in rather good condition. Pulling back, he continues to puff on his cigarette. Hmm... could there possibly be a helmet of some kind nearby? Head gear would be nice from.. y'know... those headshots.
  600. [20:03] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 The key and the lock on the door look equally rusty
  601. [20:04] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 There are Two Police helmets on top of the lockers. They will allow the wearer to apply 1.5x their normal DT against headshots
  602. 07[20:04] * +Keen looks at the door and the safe. "I can't get them open. Could you do something about that?"
  603. 07[20:05] * +Fire_Lily smiles at Keen. "Alright!" She gets to work.
  604. 07[20:05] * +Wraith- nods and takes a helmet appropriate for him, analysing it's condition.
  605. 07[20:08] * +Desert_Storm takes off and soars in a wide circle around the city. Today was so. Awesome.
  606. 07[20:09] * +Wraith- wears the helmet, and takes the other one and looks at the two mares asking, "Either of you want this? Pretty good at keeping your dome safe."
  607. 07[20:09] * +Wraith- looks at Desert_Storm and adds, "Would go good with those shades you wear."
  608. [20:10] <+Wraith-> (redact as she flew off)
  609. 07[20:12] * +Wraith- goes outside and looks about, seeing the pegasus mare flying around in wide circles in the town... Seriously? Why not shout at the top of her lungs and wave a flourescent flag of some type so she could maximize her potential in gaining attention? They were just lucky so far, that there wasn't anything here.
  610. [20:12] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 Lily doesn't seem to care about old and rusty, as she opens the lock with pinasche
  611. 07[20:13] * +Wraith- shouts out, "Yo, Shades. You want this Helmet? Will keep your noggin safe, also would go well with those sunglasses."
  612. 07[20:13] * +Keen scruffs Lily's Mane. "Atta girl.
  613. 07[20:14] * +Desert_Storm shrugs and descends. The Enclace weren't known for their subtlety. "Hmmmm. No thanks."
  614. [20:14] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 The door swings open, revealing what looks like the private workshop of somepony who liked Magical Energy Weapons
  615. 07[20:14] * +Fire_Lily smiles a bit at the praise. She likes being useful for something!
  616. 07[20:15] * +Wraith- rolls his eyes and goes into the Stable-tec outlet. He sees Keen observing Fire_Lily unlocking things. He trots over to them and asks Keen, "Yo, Preachy, you want this helmet? Keep your head secure from being knocked upside your head."
  617. 07[20:16] * +Keen looks at the workshop like it was the Ark of the Covenant. This is either the best or the worst jackpot he's ever had, and he couldn't quite tell which one it really was.
  618. 07[20:17] * +Fire_Lily turns to the safe next, working her magic on it!
  619. 07[20:17] * +Keen looked around the place. "Um, yeah. Sure. Just put it on the counter." He ran into the storage room and started taking inventory. Oh sweet filly Celestia.
  620. [20:18] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 There's another workbench in the room, upon which is sitting a laser rifle. Next to it are two sets of Gem Cells, both of which seem to be glowing and humming a bit too much
  621. 07[20:19] * +Wraith- sets the other helmet on the counter as instructed. He sees the filly working and says to her, "You're pretty damn good at that Lily. You're a real talented girl." he gives a faint smile, puffing his cigarette... he probably looks unsightly with his visage.
  622. [20:20] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 The safe yields a copy of 'Applied Gemstones' (MEW Skill Book), a small purple gem, and a sack of pre-war coins
  623. 07[20:22] * +Keen examines the Laser Rifle's series model and possible modifications, followed by looking at the Gem Cells. Why would there be Gem Cells right next to the Rifle? It took Micro-Sparkle Cells.
  624. 07[20:22] * +Fire_Lily smiles wider. "Thanks!"
  625. 07[20:23] * +Keen examines the rifle's battery slot. Well, not that he was complaining, it's just it's a little weird is all.
  626. 07[20:23] * +Fire_Lily also calls Keen over. "Got the safe open!"
  627. [20:23] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 They are MIcro-Sparkle Cells, derp
  628. [20:23] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 There are 12 Max Charge and 24 Overcharge Micro-Sparkle Cells
  629. 02[20:23] * Ashen_Ward ([email protected]) Quit (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)
  630. 07[20:27] * +Desert_Storm loiters ouside, next to an old "No Loitering" sign, gawking over her new toy.
  631. [20:27] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 (lol)
  632. 07[20:33] * +Keen examines the serial number. This is a third series Rainbow of Light Pink Rifle. And this- Ooh. This is going onto his rifle. He walked out with a new rifle, and a scope on the old one. He felt like the avenging ghost of the old world. He looked like a tired pony wearing a bathrobe.
  633. 07[20:36] * +Wraith- says out to Keen, "Don't forget your helmet, slick." He then exits into the street.
  634. [20:41] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 Today was a really good day. No fighting, no traps, no hazards, just lots and lots of loot. After the wierd turn with the bear and the three days of nothing happening, it was a welcome bonus
  635. [20:45] <@TenMihara|GM> 3 ***** End Session 17 *****
