  1. [2015-02-07 21:53:59]<LuckyLeaf> Group 0-II: *Freedom's Price* - Session #030 starts now
  2. [2015-02-07 21:54:00]<LuckyLeaf> =======================================================
  3. [2015-02-07 21:59:41]<SpiritOfFate> The clinic explorer finally get time to make sense of what they found. One of the remaining closed doors let them into the medicine storage, which is plentiful. Each of the surgery rooms also has a freezer, stuffed to the brim with surprisingly fresh organs and blood.
  4. [2015-02-07 22:01:57]* Full_Physical pokes one of the brains in the fridge with a probe from a nearby table
  5. [2015-02-07 22:02:08]<Full_Physical> "Huh, this is messed up."
  6. [2015-02-07 22:02:26]<SpiritOfFate> The brain is chilly and wiggles slightly
  7. [2015-02-07 22:04:43]* Ignis rolls his eyes. "Yeah, sorta mad-scientist-cliche-ey..." The dragon sighs. "Well, before we begin to scavenge this place about, its probably a good idea to check the terminal logs to know why and how this place become as it is...may reveal stuff of note, also." He trots over to Gil. "Ah, I forgot to tell you how she looks like...well, ask by for a brown filly with a mane like a fire streak,
  8. [2015-02-07 22:04:45]<Ignis> * if in doubt, ask Tamara about her."
  9. [2015-02-07 22:04:45]<Full_Physical> *redact*
  10. [2015-02-07 22:04:56]<SpiritOfFate> Sieglinde walks to the hallway. Her feather covered hull is tore open right in the middle of her chest. She rubs it.
  11. [2015-02-07 22:06:28]<SpiritOfFate> Gilberto salutes. "Alright. I think I know who you want." He turns to the door.
  12. [2015-02-07 22:06:51]<Full_Physical> "What do they even need all this crap for anyway, were they working for someone who's into plasticization?"
  13. [2015-02-07 22:06:56]<Ignis> "Ah, and...if you could also escort her back here, that would be grand, man."
  14. [2015-02-07 22:07:14]<SpiritOfFate> There is still a single closed door just by the backalley hallway
  15. [2015-02-07 22:07:59]* Ignis shrugs. "As I said...still up to checking." The dragon goes back to the doctor's office to mess with the terminal some more.
  16. [2015-02-07 22:11:18]* DontAskForCookies (DontAskForC@Pony-t3jpfb.ga.comcast.net) has joined
  17. [2015-02-07 22:11:21]<SpiritOfFate> The terminal is back up.
  18. [2015-02-07 22:12:16]* Ignis types on the keyboard, bring back that menu from before.
  19. [2015-02-07 22:13:52]<SpiritOfFate> The screen says Recovery Mode <Read Only> and has the following options: Messages, Medical History, Schedule, Maintenance and Staff
  20. [2015-02-07 22:14:36]* Ignis shrugs and reads the messages first.
  21. [2015-02-07 22:15:16]<Full_Physical> "I found 10 super restoration potions and 20 medical tool kits, so let me know if anyone gets mauled by a hellhound. We should be in pretty good shape." FP tells Ignis
  22. [2015-02-07 22:15:32]* DontAskForCookies is now known as Royal_Lace
  23. [2015-02-07 22:17:26]<Ignis> "Well, we've came here to fuel the town's supply, so it should last for a while until we can get into our feet again." He said, reading over the message logs. "And hellhounds do not maul people, they just rip people apart."
  24. [2015-02-07 22:20:56]<Full_Physical> "Mauling is essentially ripping. So, did you find anything interesting on the computer?"
  25. [2015-02-07 22:22:41]<Ignis> "No, it is not...there's a very clear distinction between the two, weren't you supposed to be a medic or something?" The dragon grunts, amused. "Still checking...its pretty sluggish."
  26. [2015-02-07 22:23:08]* Swiss_Provoleta has quit (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)
  27. [2015-02-07 22:23:57]<SpiritOfFate> The options are: 1."Leaving for Saint Burble"; 2."Re:Re: Wrong Diagnosis"; 3."Re: They are ripping you off"; 4. "Radiation"; 5."New gizmos"
  28. [2015-02-07 22:24:45]* Ignis reads over all of them, in the numerical order.
  29. [2015-02-07 22:25:40]* Swiss_Provoleta (IceChat77@Pony-qgd3t7.cable.teksavvy.com) has joined
  30. [2015-02-07 22:27:36]<Full_Physical> "Why yes, of course I'm a medic. I never fail to satisfy my patients."
  31. [2015-02-07 22:28:24]* Ignis snerks
  32. [2015-02-07 22:38:06]<SpiritOfFate> "Thanks for all the years of work together. I'm sorry but I'm not going to wait until our city becomes a barren battleground as well. I am leaving for the Stable at Saint Burble. Patches and Stitches, you should do the same. I will leave D.o.C.T.O.R. in charge of the patients. I hope to see you again. If not, goodbye."
  33. [2015-02-07 22:39:46]* Ignis has quit (Quit: )
  34. [2015-02-07 22:51:36]* Ignis (androirc@Pony-lep.84c.103.189.IP) has joined
  35. [2015-02-07 22:53:23]<SpiritOfFate> "This is bad..." Sieglinde says, poking her insides.
  36. [2015-02-07 22:57:10]<Ignis> "Dumbass..." Ignis says as he reads over. "Leaving a complete automoton in charge...were all pre-war folks total dopes?" The dragon reads it once more. "Saint Burble...must be a Stable nearby, fuck me if it isn't the one where our ghoul friends are screwing us over from..." He reads on the next entry.
  37. [2015-02-07 23:02:03]<Full_Physical> "In hindsight, yes, obviously leaving robots in charge of this place was a bad idea, but maybe it seemed like a good idea at the time."
  38. [2015-02-07 23:03:09]<Ignis> "Seriously? It was just a bomb ticking, True, they could make the robots do some stuff, but leaving everything up to them...?"
  39. [2015-02-07 23:05:19]<Full_Physical> "I guess they overestimated their creations, but maybe if they had spent more time developing them, it could have worked."
  40. [2015-02-07 23:08:06]* Firefly (chatzilla@Pony-i2kvmq.res.rr.com) has joined
  41. [2015-02-07 23:09:30]<Ignis> "Nah, its an inherent mistake to the whole deal, given enough time something will always screw up...what sets up sentient beings from complete automotons is the ability to discern those and not keep going on the same mistake over and over...the ability to reason and think is important when dealing with important matters, like medicine and interior decorating."
  42. [2015-02-07 23:10:30]<SpiritOfFate> This message seems to be from a week before the previous. "I'd like to schedule a maintenance visit just in case. If you are right he doesn't have long until the onset of atrophy. But if that is the case we aren't prepared to deal with such a rare case. He should be transfered to a bigger hospital. I will review the case more closely."
  43. [2015-02-07 23:11:46]<SpiritOfFate> "Oh really?" Sieglinde says from another room. "I disagree. And you are racist."
  44. [2015-02-07 23:15:33]<Ignis> ACTION hmms a bit, seeing who sent that message...how odd, he had a bad feeling about it. Then, he overheard the bot's comment and promptly answered her. "Oh really? Did you know that said sentiente is the one thing that allows you to have an opiniou about such matters, not only that, but to judge my character as well? If one isn't even able to do those, how well are they supposed to fare? Weren't one of those trying to murder you just a bit ago, miss
  45. [2015-02-07 23:15:44]<Ignis> *sentience
  46. [2015-02-07 23:16:32]<Full_Physical> "At least with an automaton, there are limits to the number of ways they can screw their job up. Now with if you have a free thinking individual, there are just too many creative ways for them to screw up to prepare for them all."
  47. [2015-02-07 23:17:10]<Ignis> "That's the same as all of us, me, you, anypony alive and thinking, really."
  48. [2015-02-07 23:21:20]<SpiritOfFate> "Ha. Ha. Sentience is just emergence of adaptable behaviors in complex systems. Organelles also have simple patterns of behavior, yet you achieve complexity in beings composed of countless such elements. Besides, the system here, it was suffering from what you could relate to organic dementia."
  49. [2015-02-07 23:23:41]<Full_Physical> "Right, so you see Ignis? It's okay for robots to be doctors. We just have to refrain from nuking ourselves long enough to retire them before they start taking out people's organs."
  50. [2015-02-07 23:24:51]<SpiritOfFate> Sieglinde offers a very uncanny smile to Full_Physical from under her hood. "I agree."
  51. [2015-02-07 23:24:57]<Ignis> "Perhaps...I'll check all the data just in case." The dragon said. "Organic dementia, you mean user failure? Maybe...its a possibilty, after all...though if the robot crew wasn't left in charge of the most essential routines, it probably could be avoided..." The dragon shakes his head. "My problem isn't with robots being doctors, but incapable people having the means to do serious damage...if there weren't any, the collateral damage could be avoided."
  52. [2015-02-07 23:26:11]<SpiritOfFate> Meanwhile Tamara observes the groups as they discuss their plans. "It's better if a small party is in charge of infiltration and reconoissance, but it will naturally be risky to Swiss_Provollone alone."
  53. [2015-02-07 23:29:08]<SpiritOfFate> "I mean that the system here has had it's cognitive capabilities degraded over time. Much like an old pony." Sieglinde says.
  54. [2015-02-07 23:29:23]* Swiss_Provoleta nods, "But less risk to the town to send just myself as well." she responds
  55. [2015-02-07 23:30:08]* Royal_Lace nods, "I have a particularly well crafted stealth suit that may fit his new... form, In any case I can accopany him, I dont take up much room as a small animal and I can port us out in case of trouble. And we could always have someone flying nearby... in case of said trouble"
  56. [2015-02-07 23:30:17]<Full_Physical> "I suppose that at this point it doesn't matter. I doubt we'll still be around by the time our civilization has the capactity to be building robots like these again."
  57. [2015-02-07 23:30:58]<SpiritOfFate> A young griffon talks to the mudpony guards outside the war room tent.
  58. [2015-02-07 23:32:12]* Swiss_Provoleta nods, "So long as you make sure to get yourself out at the first sign of trouble. We can't let them capture you, thats for damn sure." she says to Royal_Lace
  59. [2015-02-07 23:32:21]<Ignis> "Viktor did a pretty good job at it, I do have to take my hat..." He comments, checking the sender of that message yet. "I don't doubt that our civilization could pull off something like that in the near future."
  60. [2015-02-07 23:33:32]* Royal_Lace Holds back a scoff and smiles, "I would very much like to see anyone who things they can take me anywhere without my consent..... well with a pulse at teh very least"
  61. [2015-02-07 23:33:39]<SpiritOfFate> Sieglinde stare at Full_Physical for a good minute. "That is a sadly plausible hypothesis."
  62. [2015-02-07 23:33:40]<Ignis> "As long as we keep ourselves from murdering our asses, we're good."
  63. [2015-02-07 23:35:38]* Swiss_Provoleta nods, raising an eyebrow, "You mentioned a suit? What do you mean about fitting the 'new form'?"
  64. [2015-02-07 23:35:53]<Full_Physical> "Right, then all we have to worry about is monsters, radiation, taint, landmines, disease and... oh no, I just made myself sad."
  65. [2015-02-07 23:36:53]<Ignis> "The worst monsters are the ones we keep within ourselves, always."
  66. [2015-02-07 23:37:08]<SpiritOfFate> One of the mudpony guards enters the tent. "There is a Blackfeather outside asking for Firefly on behalf of Ignis."
  67. [2015-02-07 23:38:26]<SpiritOfFate> "I don't eat living creatures, I don't have the same problem. Not that they are capable of much harm after being butchered." Sieglinde says
  68. [2015-02-07 23:38:54]<Ignis> "...it's a metaphor."
  69. [2015-02-07 23:39:06]* Firefly walks outside, having taken in as much information as she can. "Hello! What can I do for you?"
  70. [2015-02-07 23:39:49]<SpiritOfFate> "Oh. Understood. What does it mean?" Sieglinde asks
  71. [2015-02-07 23:40:31]* Royal_Lace waves fairwell to Firefly before looking to swiss, "Its my own and lets just say I let you borrow my measurments
  72. [2015-02-07 23:40:33]<Royal_Lace> "
  73. [2015-02-07 23:41:36]* Firefly pauses. "Oh! Um... can I borrow a little of your magic after I talk to the nice griffin?"
  74. [2015-02-07 23:42:09]<SpiritOfFate> Gilberto the young adult griffon waves at Firefly. "Hey, you are Firefly right? ...you are smaller than I thought. Anyway, Ignis wanted you to see a bunch of robots we found at a clinic out in the raider zone."
  75. [2015-02-07 23:42:35]* Swiss_Provoleta doesn't seem to catch the drift, "Well so long as it provides some decent protection it should be fine." she responds
  76. [2015-02-07 23:42:53]<Ignis> "That no matter what you face out there, the one who will always put you down the hardest is your own mind...vaccilating, making you second-guess your choices, making you feel guilty, judging your actions with a thin scalpel...good, bad...when you go out to fight folks like you, you need to have some...flexible...morals, otherwise one will just go nuts. The problem is knowing where said morals can be stretched before you become just what you fight...o
  77. [2015-02-07 23:43:22]* Firefly smiles to the griffin. "Oh! Ok. Uh..." The filly looks at Doll. "Do you mind if we go tomorrow instead?"
  78. [2015-02-07 23:43:34]* Royal_Lace Nods to Firefly, "You can, whenever you like dear"
  79. [2015-02-07 23:43:50]* Royal_Lace Looks back to Swiss and dead pans a bit, "Your body is modeled basicaly after my own"
  80. [2015-02-07 23:43:59]<Firefly> "Thanks!" The filly smiles over to Lace and looks back to Doll.
  81. [2015-02-07 23:45:08]<SpiritOfFate> "Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm." Sieglinde hmms. "I will need to think about it more later."
  82. [2015-02-07 23:45:28]* Swiss_Provoleta nods, "I'm quite aware, not sure how that relates to the armour though. Like I said, its fine so long as it offers some decent protection." she replies
  83. [2015-02-07 23:46:27]<SpiritOfFate> "Oh? Uh... sure." Doll says, turning to leave.
  84. [2015-02-07 23:46:46]<Ignis> "Don't overthink it, this inner struggle and others are meant to be savored in due time order to be understood properly, or dealt with..." The dragon sighs and goes on to the next message.
  85. [2015-02-07 23:47:02]<Ignis> *in order to be
  86. [2015-02-07 23:48:06]* Firefly nods to Doll. "Sorry we can't go today... but I like to try and help when I can."
  87. [2015-02-07 23:48:10]* Royal_Lace sighs, "Its MY armor and its a bit form fitting... It would be hard for anyone ells to fit in it, almost imporsible without poping seams that is in rather embarasing places.... your not allowed to wear it near my wife"
  88. [2015-02-07 23:51:36]* Swiss_Provoleta sighs, shaking his head. "Fantastic. So long as the protection is good though." she shakes herself off, "So, you think we should go inspect the Quarry then?" she asks Royal_Lace
  89. [2015-02-07 23:53:40]* Royal_Lace looks to Tamara, "It would be a quick in and out, and between us we have a small group easy to avoid detection but versitile enough to get the job done. Quick intel to prepare for full scale assault, what do you think?"
  90. [2015-02-07 23:58:37]<SpiritOfFate> This message is a few months older than the others. "You may not realize but things are getting serious. There are talks of ponies _BEING OUR FRIENDS__ and trying to __HELP___ our government. The zebras might be doing just the same. Ponies themselves are buying into these Stables and they have CONFETTI_. If things get bad, I want to be safe. I want my place before they are out of them. They could only spare two for us."
  91. [2015-02-08 00:02:28]<SpiritOfFate> Doll leaves silently, keeping a brisk pace to get away from all the armed ponies
  92. [2015-02-08 00:03:01]* Ignis sees who sent that...maybe he would meet the sender of that message later on the stable someday...the meaning was obvious there. "Hmm...an MoP or MI or some other turd ministery filter for keywords...sorta silly, I can tell what it is...probably it is inbuilt to the stable's computers to filter seditous messages...to what end, I can only guess."
  93. [2015-02-08 00:06:17]<SpiritOfFate> Tamara nods. "I support that plan. As soon as we know where to strike, we can advance with a larger force."
  94. [2015-02-08 00:06:36]* Firefly looks sadly at Doll and goes back to the griffin. "Ok. Show me the way."
  95. [2015-02-08 00:07:17]* Swiss_Provoleta nods, "Well, whenever you're ready ma'am we can head out."
  96. [2015-02-08 00:07:39]<SpiritOfFate> Gilberto pats her sholder. "You can go back to your friend when we are done. Lets go." He takes flight, headed to the clinic
  97. [2015-02-08 00:09:57]<SpiritOfFate> Sieglinde peeks over Ignis' shoulder. "That is rather crudely done too."
  98. [2015-02-08 00:10:50]* Firefly takes off and flies alongside the griffin, easily keeping up.
  99. [2015-02-08 00:11:17]* Ignis nodnods. "Maybe I can find an use for this info later...well, going on..." He goes to see the next message after he was aware that Swift Needle sent that one.
  100. [2015-02-08 00:13:26]* Royal_Lace nods "Very well, we can leave then, Imediately if that is fine with everyone"
  101. [2015-02-08 00:14:54]* Swiss_Provoleta falls in line with Royal_Lace, "I'm ready."
  102. [2015-02-08 00:17:49]* Royal_Lace nods and trots off, "We will arange to arm ourselves and prepare for the trip, we will be back in sort order Tamara"
  103. [2015-02-08 00:18:10]* Swiss_Provoleta follows Royal_Lace
  104. [2015-02-08 00:20:04]<Full_Physical> "So, Sieglinde, any idea what all the organs in the fridge are for?"
  105. [2015-02-08 00:22:44]<SpiritOfFate> "There has been a growing number of cases of sickness that from what I can gather must be related to the regular consumption of Sparkle Cola RAD. It seems some ponies might be allergic to radiation, despite the health claims. We haven't seen similar reactions among donkeys yet but I will keep anti-radiation medicine in stock just in case."
  106. [2015-02-08 00:23:35]<Ignis> "Maybe they're spare parts, seriously...looked like that, all nice and settled...I can see why robots would think that, if their priority was to take care of that case on the last message, it could mean that...there is a...thing...still alive on that closed room, and it should be big...since they wanted to move it to a bigger hospital..."
  107. [2015-02-08 00:24:06]<SpiritOfFate> And Gilberto takes Firefly to the backdoor of the clinic. "We are back!" He calls
  108. [2015-02-08 00:26:05]<SpiritOfFate> "But would it need that many organs? This could be an infinite loop." Sieglinde says, glancing at the filly who just entered and moving out of her sight
  109. [2015-02-08 00:26:28]<Ignis> "Hmm, yeah....donkeys are naturally more resilient to radiation, but allergies to trace ammounts of radiation? Maybe it was this which sent the system on fritz, since everything was irradiated it meant that every outsider with trace ammounts of RAD was labeled as an allergic entity..."
  110. [2015-02-08 00:27:22]<Ignis> "Indeed it could...this is why we should think long and hard before opening that door, for what it might contain..."
  111. [2015-02-08 00:28:49]* Firefly lands and looks around. "So... hi! Where's the robots you wanted me to look at?"
  112. [2015-02-08 00:29:20]<SpiritOfFate> "It's possible. However difficult to tell. What else could be causing radiation sickness?" Sieglinde asks Ignis.
  113. [2015-02-08 00:31:38]<Ignis> ACTION eyes at Firefly. "Well, I don't even know where to start, so much to go by...just don't open the closed door." He said to the filly. "Maybe you should see miss Sieglinde, if she would allow..." the dragon mentioned, eyeing the griffon. "Firefly could probably repair you, if you would allow..." The dragon nods. "As for what could be causing radiation sickness, everything out there has some radiation...one hotspot would be the stable, could be an
  114. [2015-02-08 00:31:46]<Royal_Lace> back
  115. [2015-02-08 00:32:56]* Firefly waves. "I could! I've been working on a giant robot that someone could pilot! It can fly!"
  116. [2015-02-08 00:33:34]<Ignis> *Could be anyhting from a radioactive dump to having sparkle-cola instead of water there."
  117. [2015-02-08 00:36:28]<SpiritOfFate> Sieglinde nods. "We would need more information. But that is plausible." She looks at Firefly from under her hood, covering her chest with her ragged cloak. "Do I have your word that she won't attempt to override my autonomy?"
  118. [2015-02-08 00:37:11]<Ignis> "She doesn't have the know-how to...only by accident she could."
  119. [2015-02-08 00:39:55]* Royal_Lace leads the new mare to her house to get dressed
  120. [2015-02-08 00:40:02]<SpiritOfFate> "Do not have accidents." Sieglinde uncovers her chest, displaying a feathery chest sawed open, and a damaged metallic hull with electronic components underneat.
  121. [2015-02-08 00:42:49]<Ignis> "Hmmm...spare parts...maybe the bots have been harvesting those organs from raiders and whatnot scum...exactly to keep alive a lost case, how futile."
  122. [2015-02-08 00:44:19]* Swiss_Provoleta chuckles, "I thought you didn't want your wife seeing me in this armour?" she says jokingly
  123. [2015-02-08 00:47:05]* Royal_Lace rolls eyes and blushes, "I still dont, you will be changing alone like a big mare, if you think you can handle it"
  124. [2015-02-08 00:48:21]* Swiss_Provoleta chuckles, "I've been around for a while, I think I'll be fine."
  125. [2015-02-08 00:48:53]<SpiritOfFate> Sieglinde approaches Firefly. "Are you really capable of repairing me? I'm very advanced."
  126. [2015-02-08 00:49:37]<Full_Physical> "Huh, you really think the people who built these hunks of junk would program to harvest people to save their patients? That's morbid."
  127. [2015-02-08 00:50:29]* Royal_Lace Chuckles as she nears her house, "Oh? I have heard stallions talk about taking a mares cloths off before, Never heard of one putting them on"
  128. [2015-02-08 00:50:41]<Ignis> "Not programmed to, it just interpreted their orders to keep it alive', and took measures for such."
  129. [2015-02-08 00:50:45]* Firefly smiles and nods. "I think I can do it... you don't have anything that makes you a bad pony-bot? I could fix that!"
  130. [2015-02-08 00:51:30]<Ignis> "No, Firefly...she just has some structural damage, don't meddle with her insides, please."
  131. [2015-02-08 00:52:00]* Firefly takes out her tools and her overalls. "Let me put on my grease clothes. and we can get started! And I promise I won't meddle with things that don't look broken."
  132. [2015-02-08 00:53:06]* Ignis goes to the next message.
  133. [2015-02-08 00:53:35]* Swiss_Provoleta rolls her eyes and says nothing
  134. [2015-02-08 00:55:53]<SpiritOfFate> "That is good." Sieglinde says
  135. [2015-02-08 01:02:09]* Firefly flutters around with her tools. "It'll be easier if I was in my shop..." She starts examining.
  136. [2015-02-08 01:03:48]* Royal_Lace chucks, "Ok come in and say hello to Nicky then we can grab what we need". She opens the door and calls, "NIcky are you home Sweety? "
  137. [2015-02-08 01:05:37]* Swiss_Provoleta nods, looking around
  138. [2015-02-08 01:08:04]<SpiritOfFate> "As you might have noted, I got us new equipment. Very modern, it should make handling our medical duties a cinch. I am also reducing the staff. You should have received your final notices by now. I wish the best for those who are leaving. For the others, keep up with the good work."
  139. [2015-02-08 01:09:56]<SpiritOfFate> Royal Lace hears a shot being fired outside.
  140. [2015-02-08 01:10:07]* Ignis headtilts. "Yeah right..." He closes that option and checks the staff info.
  141. [2015-02-08 01:12:32]* Royal_Lace eyes go wide, "Nicky?!?" She gallops outside
  142. [2015-02-08 01:13:01]<SpiritOfFate> Firefly sees the gash in her outer hull, and she also spots a severed wire underneath. Peeking in she sees it's attached to what seems to be a battery.
  143. [2015-02-08 01:13:13]* Swiss_Provoleta swears under her breathe and draws her pistol, rushing to follow Royal_Lace outside
  144. [2015-02-08 01:15:34]* Firefly blinks. "Well... that's not too bad. Just your casing is damaged and you have a severed wire... its attached to a battery, what's on the other end of this?"
  145. [2015-02-08 01:16:44]<SpiritOfFate> They hear another shot and get outside, where Knick Knack has a smoking shotgun pointed at the corpse of a giant rat.
  146. [2015-02-08 01:19:38]<SpiritOfFate> Sieglinde pauses for a moment, then answers. "My wings. It is nothing critical."
  147. [2015-02-08 01:21:59]* Swiss_Provoleta breathes a sigh of relief, holstering the 10mm
  148. [2015-02-08 01:22:21]* Royal_Lace Runs up to her side, looking worried, "Oh my, what happened? I heard the shot and- everything is ok right?"
  149. [2015-02-08 01:22:33]<Ignis> "How can you even fly? You know, being made of metal and other heavy stuff...you got any thrusters down there? Those wouldn't go incoscipious..."
  150. [2015-02-08 01:23:15]* Firefly nods. "I can fix it if there's any scrap metal around. I'll just need to remove that casing and I can just replace the wire." The filly nods.
  151. [2015-02-08 01:25:04]<Firefly> "Assuming you have a welder here? Otherwise, I'll need to take it back to my workshop."
  152. [2015-02-08 01:28:03]<SpiritOfFate> "That is adequate." Sieglinde says to Firefly, turning to Ignis. "No, he couldn't figure out how to make it work. The most we could do is a jump or a short hover, but the wings themselves are not practical for most purposes."
  153. [2015-02-08 01:28:12]<Ignis> "There's probably one on the storeroom for mainentance...maybe some duct tape as well for the wire or a replacement..." The dragon shrugs. "Could get one from the bots all around too, but you'd had to crack them..."
  154. [2015-02-08 01:28:39]* Firefly smiles. "I bet I could get it to work!"
  155. [2015-02-08 01:30:13]<Ignis> "Hmm, yeah...I can tell Sieglinde...maybe you could ask her to reroute the battery to something else if you wanted to? Seems a bit like wasted power to spend it on wings, but eh...your call, or maybe let her tinker...who knows...though if you got it working, everybody would be able to tell you're a bot" He returns to see the staff info.
  156. [2015-02-08 01:31:06]<SpiritOfFate> The staff options list Dr. Swift Needle, Patches and Stitches, a number of Nursebots, the Dr. Surgeons, Planet Cleaner and Mr. Fix-it
  157. [2015-02-08 01:32:07]* Ignis sees every one of them...he had a feeling he would see some of the former staff on the vault, so might as well snoop around already.
  158. [2015-02-08 01:32:28]<SpiritOfFate> Knick Knack catches her breath. "That monster got inside!"
  159. [2015-02-08 01:33:58]* Royal_Lace looks worridly back at the house, "Inside the House?"
  160. [2015-02-08 01:36:12]<SpiritOfFate> She nods, heading back home. "Minty is safe in our room, I got it downstairs."
  161. [2015-02-08 01:38:08]* Royal_Lace Hugs her Wife, "Oh Nicky you are the best, Im so glad you were here to protect our home"
  162. [2015-02-08 01:39:24]* Swiss_Provoleta follows the pair inside
  163. [2015-02-08 01:40:51]<SpiritOfFate> "Can you really?" Sieglinde says to Firefly. "Well, my looks tend to attract attention. For all of Viktor's technical know-how, he couldn't craft a convincing disguise. But flying is an experience I have had curiosity about ever since I understood the species I am meant to mimic."
  164. [2015-02-08 01:41:46]<SpiritOfFate> Knick Knack hugs Royal_Lace back. "Yeah, I am." She says without much enthusiasm.
  165. [2015-02-08 01:44:05]* Firefly nods. "I could bring you in a wagon. That'll be easy. Mind if I go get it?"
  166. [2015-02-08 01:44:16]* Royal_Lace snugs Knick Knack, "Swiss what we came for is in the upstairs office, you should know your way around. You can collect it while I talk with Nicky"
  167. [2015-02-08 01:44:42]<SpiritOfFate> "I have no hurry." Sieglinde says
  168. [2015-02-08 01:45:03]* Swiss_Provoleta nods, "Sure thing, I won't be long." she says, heading upstairs to the office
  169. [2015-02-08 01:46:15]* Ignis reads over the ponies' entries and the bots' ones as well...he was sorta curious of the workings of the automotons, certainly the would have some relevant info to shed a light on stuff.
  170. [2015-02-08 01:47:05]<SpiritOfFate> Knick Knack looks at Swiss_Provoleta. "Swiss? Is she related to your security pony?"
  171. [2015-02-08 01:48:15]* Firefly nods and darts away back toward her mechanic's shop, flying as fast as Flight 4 can take her.
  172. [2015-02-08 01:51:20]* Royal_Lace nuzzles her, "It is Swiss Sweety, He is just under the effects of one of my spells for a mission that needs a mares touch so to speek", She wispers teh next part, "Its the same spell we use when Sotho is not here sometimes"
  173. [2015-02-08 01:51:35]* Royal_Lace waves a hoof "But for diffrent reasons of course"
  174. [2015-02-08 01:55:51]<SpiritOfFate> "Oh!" She blinks. "Why then?"
  175. [2015-02-08 01:57:30]* Royal_Lace waves in the direction Swiss had left, "He is going somewhere dangerous and is going to barrow my sneaky suit, you know... the dark black leather one, you know the one"
  176. [2015-02-08 01:57:33]* Royal_Lace blushes
  177. [2015-02-08 01:59:16]<SpiritOfFate> She blinks again and blushes. "I think I read a book about that kind of mission once."
  178. [2015-02-08 02:01:17]* Swiss_Provoleta comes back downstairs, old armour in her bags and new armour equipped. "I look ridiculous." she says with a grumble
  179. [2015-02-08 02:01:20]* Royal_Lace laughs a bit, "I think I borrowed that one as well... but no, this one just requires he is not seen"
  180. [2015-02-08 02:01:56]* Royal_Lace narrows her eyes, " Hey, you have my same body shape right now... are you saying your boss looks rediculous?"
  181. [2015-02-08 02:03:23]* Swiss_Provoleta lowers her head, "No, considering who I actually am this looks ridiculous." she says, clearly not enjoying the fit
  182. [2015-02-08 02:03:29]<SpiritOfFate> "She looks nice." Knick Knack says. "Good luck in your, uh, 'mission'?"
  183. [2015-02-08 02:04:52]<SpiritOfFate> Firefly zooms through the sky and finally reaches her shop
  184. [2015-02-08 02:06:05]* Ignis has quit (Connection closed)
  185. [2015-02-08 02:06:22]* Royal_Lace nods, "I was going to teleport him there and back but now-"
  186. [2015-02-08 02:06:47]* Firefly hitches herself up to the wagon and flies back to the clinic.
  187. [2015-02-08 02:08:19]* Royal_Lace looks to nicky, "Should I stay? It wouldnt be long but that was... that was scary"
  188. [2015-02-08 02:11:05]<SpiritOfFate> Knick Knack frowns. "You have been away a lot lately. And now Sotho went on his trip..." She sighs.
  189. [2015-02-08 02:14:09]* Royal_Lace nods, then turns to Swiss, "I know I said I would go... but im needed here. Here is what I need you to do, ready for oders?
  190. [2015-02-08 02:14:11]<Royal_Lace> ?
  191. [2015-02-08 02:15:16]* Swiss_Provoleta nods, standing up straight, "Sure thing ma'am, I understand."
  192. [2015-02-08 02:18:14]<Royal_Lace> "Good, You are to go to Nebulous and have the Staff prepare the ship. You are to be outfitited with one of the original Blimp packs for a Mid air jump into the outlying area. Have them paint it black to help reduce its visibility. I also suggest you go see Fireflys mother falling Snow to accompany you, she should be good for an emergency exit if needed, take any radio equipment you need"
  193. [2015-02-08 02:18:21]* Royal_Lace "Do you understand?"
  194. [2015-02-08 02:21:42]* Swiss_Provoleta nods, "Very well, I've got a radio on hoof already." she says, pulling one out of her packs, "If theres nothing else, I'll go to the labs immediately."
  195. [2015-02-08 02:30:36]* Firefly lands back at the clinic and backs the wagon up to the door. She leaves enough space for her to squeeze in and comes back inside. "Ok! Firefly's Delivery Service is ready for pick up!"
  196. [2015-02-08 02:31:02]* Royal_Lace raises a hoof as she gathers energy in her horn. "Hold... I have something ells for you"
  197. [2015-02-08 02:31:19]* Royal_Lace eyes glow as the room is flooded with light as Lace augments Swisses body
  198. [2015-02-08 02:31:41]* Swiss_Provoleta bristles, "I hope its not like your last 'improvement'." she says, closing her eyes
  199. [2015-02-08 02:31:50]<Royal_Lace> "even better"
  200. [2015-02-08 02:31:55]* Royal_Lace The light and magic clear
  201. [2015-02-08 02:32:31]<SpiritOfFate> Sieglinde climbs up the wagon. "Are you sure you can pull my weight?"
  202. [2015-02-08 02:34:14]* Swiss_Provoleta cracks open an eye, "What did it do?"
  203. [2015-02-08 02:34:26]<Swiss_Provoleta> "Am I still a pony?"
  204. [2015-02-08 02:35:07]* Royal_Lace waggles a hoof and is visibly tired, "Trot around a bit, look around, you should notice a diffrence, I just boosted your natural abilities"
  205. [2015-02-08 02:36:17]<SpiritOfFate> "The feelers look nice too." Knick Knack says
  206. [2015-02-08 02:37:48]* Firefly flexes for the robot. "Imma strong pony!" The filly grins and hitches herself up to the trailer, attempting to take off!
  207. [2015-02-08 02:37:56]* Swiss_Provoleta walks in a circle, feeling the quick responses. She practices quickly drawing her machete and making rapid slices against an invisible foe. "I can see what you mean. Feels like one of my spells, but it just works on a single sense."
  208. [2015-02-08 02:40:38]* Royal_Lace nods
  209. [2015-02-08 02:40:43]* Royal_Lace nuzles Nicky
  210. [2015-02-08 02:41:00]* Swiss_Provoleta pauses, "Wait, what?" she says, trying to look around her body for an unfelt change
  211. [2015-02-08 02:41:15]<SpiritOfFate> Knick Knack nuzzles Lacey back
  212. [2015-02-08 02:41:21]* Royal_Lace looks back to swiss, "It wont last to long... maybe 16 hours tops, and you still have to learn how to operate the ballon on the ride there. You are going to be one busy mare"
  213. [2015-02-08 02:41:40]<SpiritOfFate> Knick Knack laughs
  214. [2015-02-08 02:43:59]<SpiritOfFate> Firefly takes flight easily despite the heavy metal griffon in the cart.
  215. [2015-02-08 02:44:20]* Royal_Lace laughs as well
  216. [2015-02-08 02:44:30]* Swiss_Provoleta uses the machete to run along where she can't see, nickering when nothing is found, "Very funny. I'll be quick then ma'am, I'll radio back before leaving."
  217. [2015-02-08 02:44:53]<SpiritOfFate> "That's impressive." Sieglinde offers an uncanny smile, she looks around as they rise to the sky
  218. [2015-02-08 02:46:00]* Royal_Lace nods, "thank you"
  219. [2015-02-08 02:46:30]* Swiss_Provoleta turns for the door, "Anything else before I head off?"
  220. [2015-02-08 02:47:11]* Royal_Lace shakes head, "Not that I know of"
  221. [2015-02-08 02:47:13]* Firefly grunts a bit before smiling back. "My parents helped me learn to work out!"
  222. [2015-02-08 02:48:39]* Swiss_Provoleta heads off for the lab to get the airship and Falling Snow as per Royal_Lace's instructions
  223. [2015-02-08 02:48:44]<SpiritOfFate> "That is a healthy habit for most beings. Good on them." Sieglinde says.
  224. [2015-02-08 02:50:10]* Firefly nods. "Yeah, its the workout routine they did."
