03[21:33] * Flashbang ([email protected]) has joined #FalloutEquestriaPNP
01[21:34] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 We last left our Mariezona Irregulars once again in the small settlement of Glassy Flats. just before our beleagured group were about to gain some well deserved rest, Roy_Calbeck managed to discover a large group of dislocated Pegasi that fled from a Steel Ranger assault on their farming community. Mixed with the pegasi were four other non-pegasi refugees that seemed to belong to the New Pony Legion controlled territories. Dust_Off moved by the plight of her downcast ponies, was moved to organize a makeshift relief effort, getting much needed supplies to the starving and homeless group.
01[21:36] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 We return with Slag_Heap keeping Book Cover from dying of hypothermia in one of Daffodil's rooms in her inn, while Sagittis whips up his alchemical supplies to assist any of the wounded inside the kitchen of said inn. Dust_Off, Roy_Calbeck, and Sour_Grape are in the south section of the town itself, having just gotten done inspecting a few buildings for the group to take refuge in.

01[21:36] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 ------------------ SESSION 36 BEGIN ------------------------------------
03[21:37] * Bravo ([email protected]) has joined #FalloutEquestriaPNP
06[21:38] * +Roy_Calbeck evenly looks at the annoying mare who insists on "properly engineered shelters". "You can stay out here in the broil an' chill, or take up residence in a hovel that's at least warm. Your choice. I've got other pegasi to help, sooo... adieu."
06[21:38] * +Sour_Grape was off talking to the medical clinic I thought
06[21:38] * +Roy_Calbeck turns on his fetlocks and goes to see after the other ponies in the refugee group, helping them get settled inside the abandoned shacks.
06[21:38] * +Sagittis yawns with a far less than amused expression as Dust_Off and Roy_Calbeck hijack some of the town's buildings without asking anypony in the one place the really liked them.
06[21:39] * +Slag_Heap has brought Book some food and water. He sits down and gently tips some water into her muzzle.
01[21:40] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Then Sour_Grape is off to Pleasant Breeze's clinic! Silly filly, I was just about to say that, why did you have to interrupt me? *ahem* Inside the quaint clinic with it's two tables turned into makeshift operating chairs, the middle-aged spectacled mare sits at a computer terminal, click-clacking away.
06[21:41] * +Sour_Grape still has her dollie and walks up to the mare. "Hello~"
06[21:42] * +Dust_Off looks amongst the refugees.  She needed more bandages and had to wait for Grape.  She looks for Roy_Calbeck, "Sergeant, go speak to Downtrodden and give him a heads up about what we've done.  We'll pay for rent if need be, but make sure he knows, we need to keep these ponies in shelter.  We can  support them until they can move on or earn their keep."
01[21:43] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Sagittis feels like he's riding on Cloud nine... if cloud nine was full of spikes, shards of glass, and heated to the point of melting flesh from bone. Also his right eye can't stop twitching... really annoying. Pleasant Breeze stops and turns to look at Sour_Grape, somewhat nervous at first, but then gives a small smile at the sight of the adorable filly... who still sported a hideous scar... "O-Oh... H-Hello there... uummm... y-you're... uhhh S-Sour Grape... right? From that... g-group of heroes? That saved our town?"
06[21:43] * +Roy_Calbeck nods to Dust_Off, tossing a salute. "Yes, ma'am."
06[21:43] * +Roy_Calbeck runs off to see Downtrodden.
06[21:43] * +Sour_Grape has an adorable hideous scar. "Hi, why'ya nervous? ANyway, Dusty needs sum bandages fer the refugees."
06[21:45] * +Dust_Off makes her tour to make sure the ponies are settling in.  She looks for Crop Dust.
06[21:45] * +Slag_Heap sits next to the bed with his hooves up, checking Book's temperature every now and again. She seemed to be getting better.
01[21:47] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 The refugees that aren't caught up in conversation with one another eye Dust_Off with admiration and awe... as well as some confusion as well. Roy_Calbeck finds Downtrodden near the main square of town, overseeing the east wall that was being constructed... lots of Pegasi mixed with the regular populace working together. Pleasant Breeze gives a slightly nervous smile replying, "Uhh... it's... n-nothing s-serious..." tilting her head to Sour_Grape, the mare replies, "I- I can't g-give a-anymore me-medical supplies t-to them... I-if you w-wish to p-purchase them, I c-can sell t-them to y-your group."
06[21:48] * +Sagittis groans a gives Dust_Off the restorative sticks. "There. Are you really going to keep bleeding the few ponies who really like us?"
06[21:50] * +Sour_Grape rolls her eyes, "Of course purchase, ah jus' ain't got my caps on me right now. But you trust me right? If you give me tha bandages I'll be right back with tha caps."
01[21:50] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Crop Dust is with a small filly that he's hugging. The young filly, around Sour's age, consumes her food, while the stallion himself just strokes her mane affectionately.
06[21:50] * +Roy_Calbeck slows to a trot and then stops before Downtrodden. "Sir. I've got a report on the south-side situation."
06[21:51] * +Dust_Off takes the incense sticks.  "Bleed them?  We've asked for charity.  If they won't give, we've paid.  That's not bleeding. "  She glances at Sagittis and points a wing at the refugees.  "They are bleeding.  Ponies.   Unicorns, earth ponies,  AND pegasi.    They deserve our help.  We can give."
03[21:52] * Scorch_Mechanic ([email protected]) has left #FalloutEquestriaPNP ("")
01[21:52] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Downtrodden turns to Roy_Calbeck looking worried and asking, "What is it?"
12[21:54] * Karina is now known as Kirengo
[21:54] <+Roy_Calbeck> "We've got the locals some food an' water, stabilizin' 'em now.  We're also movin' them into the unoccupied shacks on th' south side.  Would there be any issues with that?"
12[21:55] * Kirengo is now known as Karina
01[21:56] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Pleasant Breeze looks heavily conflicted in thought, but then exhales a small sigh to Sour_Grape, speaking in still a rather uncertain tone, "O-Okay... I- I'm sure y-you'll pay me back... j-just... please don't keep me w-waiting too long... I-I'd like to be paid back i-in a-at least t-three days... t-that way I c-can re-replenish m-my st-stock adquately. I can g-give out fifteen b-bandages at t-three caps each... s-so forty five c-caps is w-what y-you'll owe."
06[21:56] * +Sagittis sighs. "I know what charity is, but I have talked with Downtrodden and Sightseer. They told me they had given all they can afford and I am willing to bet that, due to our reputation here, they would trade more than they can afford. It is just as amoral to ask them for more than they can afford as it is to ignore your refugees. Something you learn in the cold; spread the resources too thin...
06[21:56] * +Sagittis ...and it just takes longer for everyone to die."
06[21:57] * +Sour_Grape "I'll pay you back within tha hour, ah jus' forgotta get my caps... fer reasons." SHe waits for the bandages
01[21:57] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Book Cover consumes a very scant amount of food and water from Slag_Heap, shaking slightly but not at the same intensity that she did previously. Smiling to the bald stallion, she speaks weakly, "Thank you..." then coughs and asks, "W-... Whats your n-name?"
01[21:58] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Pleasant Breeze goes to a back room via a door, then comes back out with the fifteen bandages, giving them to Sour_Grape. Shifting about uneasily, the mare asks, "I-Is... there a-anything else y-you need?"
06[21:59] * +Sour_Grape "Nadda, be right back." SHe trots out the door and flies over to Dust_Off
01[22:00] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Sour_Grape, not having her saddle bags... and her mouth only being able to carry so much, finds that she'll have to use said wings to actually carry all of those bandages without dropping or potentially losing any of them... tiny little filly. Grow a couple of inches or something!
06[22:00] * +Dust_Off raises an eyebrow, "You learn the same in a faminine.  Emergency rationing, just prolongs the inevitable and see starvation in all its horror.   We'll fix this.  For these ponies and Glassy Flats, they have been generous for their means.  Let's reward that."  She bags the incense to use later.
06[22:00] * +Sour_Grape was going to fly and carry the bandages in her hooves. Which she wont need while flying.
[22:01] <+Dust_Off> *let's you see starvation
01[22:02] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Downtrodden blinks at Roy_Calbeck, "Locals? You mean those squatters? The pegasi and the legion slaves at the south end of town? And you're moving them /inside/ those really unstable shacks? Are you guys trying to get em killed or something?" the older stallion turns to face the handsome unicorn better.
06[22:02] * +Roy_Calbeck shakes his head. "Ran a look over those shacks myself. They look like crap, but they've got good support in place."
06[22:03] * +Sagittis nods slowly. "My point is, if they have told us they have given all they can, we ought to trust them and not ask for more, as they know their ability to restore their stocks better than we do. If we need more help, we should be asking somewhere else."
06[22:05] * +Sour_Grape flies there with the bandages in her hooves because she wants to, and lands on Dust_Off's back dumping the bandages. "There you go."
01[22:05] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Downtrodden sighs slightly and raises an eyerbrow to Roy_Calbeck as he tilts his head, his tone not all that sure as he speaks, "Really... I dunno how exactly you know about that... but... you guys haven't lied to us yet about anything so far.. Still..." the town leader shakes his head and hangs it dejectedly, "We can't take all of them... We only have enough food and supplies to feed little less than half of them... we just... can't make enough caps or grow enough food on our own to sustain everypony."
06[22:07] * +Dust_Off smiles taking the bandages, "Good work, Grape.  Do you need any extra caps to cover the expenses?"  The mare begins bagging the bandages.  "Sagittis, what do you suggest?  Where can we look and who can we ask?"
06[22:08] * +Sour_Grape "Need fourty five, but ah gottem." SHe looks between the two. "More argue-i-ments?"
06[22:09] * +Sagittis nods to Dust_Off. "There is a massive city we can buy from within walking distance that we can buy from without leaving this town dangerously low on food and medical supplies."
06[22:10] * +Roy_Calbeck nods. "It'll give 'em a chance to move on, at least. Maybe where Grimm Pass relocated, or... well..." The unicorn rubs his chin. "Don't pegasi have weather powers? If they could contribute good rainfall, couldn't more crops be grown?"\
01[22:10] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Book Cover fades her smile slightly as she awaits for Slag_Heap to answer her question.
06[22:10] * +Dust_Off glances at Grape, "Sagittis is right.  We are stretching Glassy Flats thin, but we need to take care of these ponies."  She turns to Sagittis, "We form a caravan?  Buy in Dune, bring back to here and sell at cost or a slight more?"
06[22:11] * +Sour_Grape has a solution for starvation too based on her past experienced. SHe doesn't suggest it because drawing straws for her gets to be soup wouldn't go over well.
06[22:12] * +Slag_Heap smiles at Book Cover. "My name is Slag Heap. Ex Red Eye soldier." His smile is warm and kind, which would seem odd coming from such a brutish stallion.
01[22:13] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Downtrodden rubs his chin with his hoof replying to Roy_Calbeck, "Two problems with that. One, most of the land here isn't fit to grow crops... too hot too... we grow most of our food with specialized pre-war machines that are perfect for crops. We'd need more of those machines... Second... even if they could give us more rainfall... which believe me, we'd all love... that would attract the attention of the M.A.C."
06[22:13] * +Sagittis nods to Dust_Off. "That is one thing, yes. We can also set up markers to encourage greater trade volume from Dune without needing expensive pathfinders like Sightseer and myself, freeing us up for hunting and foraging."
01[22:14] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Book Cover goes wide-eyed at Slag_Heap and replies in a rather distraught and terrified tone, "R-... Red eye?"
06[22:14] * +Roy_Calbeck raises an eyebrow. "When they got here, they were already payin' attention... but that aside, I see whatcha mean. What kinda machines are we talkin' about?"
06[22:17] * +Slag_Heap leans back in his chair. "Key word being Ex. left that life when I couldn't take the slavery anymore, used my salary to buy one of the slaves' freedom, left, and went on to marry said slave. Of course, she wasn't a slave anymore." He hums slightly and scratches his stache. "Good thing I left too, whole place went up a few years after..." He looks at Book. "I know what you're thinking, ma'am, but I had nothing to do with
06[22:18] * +Dust_Off nods, "That is a good idea, Sagittis.  A visit to Grim Pass might be good.  Strengthening relations between several cities puts Glassy Flats on a strong trade route out of Mareizona.  Of course,"  She glances at Sour_Grape, " There was that metal we found while wandering.  There's supposed to something Legendary nearby.  Good profit for Glassy Flats in salvage."
01[22:18] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Downtrodden smiles slightly replying, "They did come here, but they lost the battle to the N.P.L. really though... besides just expanding their influence and trying to route out more Pegasi that might be hiding from them, as it stands, I can't really see why they would want our town... now if they know we got a healthy stock of Pegasi... manipulating the weather.... that'll for sure get their attention..." pointing towards the center of town he adds, "Inside a few larger shacks, we have a very meager greenhouses, with machines that actually make the air cool enough to make all sorts of plants. Without them, we'd be up shit creek without a paddle."
03[22:18] * Aria ([email protected]) has joined #FalloutEquestriaPNP
06[22:19] * +Sour_Grape nods at Dust_Off, "They were tracks fer like a train thing, ah think. Bet if we followed it it'd lead us to tha treasure." SHe finds that a lot more interesting then the talk about trade. The trade talk made her mind wander.
[22:19] <+Roy_Calbeck> "Ah.  Air-conditioned greenhouses.  Got it.  Makes sense.  All right, I'll let Captain Dust Off know what th' situation on your end is.  If we can't figure out a way t'boost yer crops enough, we'll try t' relocate th' pegasi... there's only a few non-pegasi, would they be an issue if they stayed on?"
[22:20] <+Slag_Heap> -Nothing to do with the slaves, and it was either enlist, die in the wastes, or sit and wait to be brought in to become a slave. Didn't have much choice." He sighs. "Its not that I think slavery is a good thing, quite the opposite really."
01[22:22] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Book Cover gulps and looks at Slag_Heap with still a fairly frightened expression. Unblinking, the mare shifts weakly under her covers, asking, "T-Then... w-why... were you... part of his... m-movement?"
06[22:22] * +Sagittis looks around Glassy Flats. "This is exactly why my home sends its foals away to gather things to prove their worth. Can't afford dead weight. You prove that you are an asset to the tribe or you find somewhere else to live." He tuns to Sour_Grape. "Well, we already took on the Hollow, but I fear that caches like that are only stopgap and would make this place a prime target."
06[22:22] * +Slag_Heap sighs again. "Because it was that, or become a slave. Simple as that. I left when I couldn't take it anymore and used what caps I had to free somepony else."
03[22:23] * Aria ([email protected]) has left #FalloutEquestriaPNP
06[22:23] * +Sour_Grape says to Sagittis, "But all of yer plans require like money an' shit right? Ah ain't sayin' give it ta them, but it can be used ta fund yer crazy business stuff."
06[22:25] * +Sagittis rubs his chin, eye still twitching. "True. We would need a safe place to store or spend it, but I suppose it would be safe if we were gradual and made investments in defense as we went along. A robot here, a turret there..."
06[22:27] * +Sour_Grape "Ah don't trust robots. Momma told me ya never know with'em. One secon' they're nice,t he next they think ya blood is good fer paintin."
06[22:27] * +Dust_Off nods, "Encourage the people we've helped here to actually help finish the wall.   But our giving Glassy Flats something without pay would make up for whatever kindness they've shown now to us."
01[22:27] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Downtrodden responds to Roy_Calbeck as he looks towards the south section of town once more, "Honestly, it doesn't matter to us whether or not they're pegasi. Well not most of us. It's simply how many mouths to feed. Who stays behind and who gets relocated is honestly up to you guys, but if you can't choose, to be fair... we'll probably tell the entire bunch to move on."
01[22:29] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Book Cover looks rather dubious, but doesn't seem to press the issue further as she just looks at the stallion now... not falling asleep. "O-Okay..."
06[22:31] * +Slag_Heap knows that look all to well. "Hey, if I was an evil sunovabitch like Red Eye was, I wouldn't be with the Marizona Irregulars now would I?" He smiles slightly. "Karma took its toll for my life choices. Lost my wife, my equipment, all of my possetions, and my mane. Making up for it all by working with good, albiet grumpy, ponies." He rubs his bald spot. "Maybe might get my mane back."
06[22:32] * +Roy_Calbeck nods again. "Got it. We'll take care of it one way or another."
06[22:32] * +Sagittis looks over the supplies. "Look, whatever you are going to do, we have about a month of supplies for them. That is how long you have to sort this out. I would like to add, that any who can work during that time, should. No settlement I know of can afford to keep dead weight around."
06[22:32] * +Roy_Calbeck turns and begins walking back south... it's been a long day already, on top of a long night, and he's been running around all morning.
06[22:32] * +Roy_Calbeck goes to find Dust_Off and report.
06[22:32] * +Sagittis "Maybe get that wall done or build more infrastructure."
06[22:33] * +Sour_Grape figures the dead weight could be turned into food! Everyone wins, except the dead weight. "Maybe they all got liek special talents an shit"
06[22:34] * +Sagittis twitches again. "Lets hope those talents are useful."
01[22:34] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 The entire group is rather exhausted. Though Sagittis more so with his withdrawal effects exacerbating his fatigue. Downtrodden nods back to Roy_Calbeck as he leaves, saying, "Sorry to put the weight on your guys shoulders... really..." then goes back to his overseeing of the wall. Book Cover quibbles her lip slightly at Slag_Heap as if she's going to laugh... but instead just coughs some more... after another fit, her eyes flutter about slightly, then she manages to drift off.
06[22:35] * +Sour_Grape "Whats with that twitchin' Sagi? It some sorta zebra-tic?"
06[22:36] * +Slag_Heap smirks as he leans back in his chair. He sits and waits for the group to arrive.
06[22:36] * +Sagittis shakes his head. "No. I had to take more Rainboom to keep Melody from killing Roy's pet Legionary." Knowing Sagi's luck, Roy_Calbeck is likely right behind him.
06[22:36] * +Dust_Off sighs and looks around, "Everyone start getting some rest.  I'm going to bandage these ponies, set the incense and sleep myself."
06[22:37] * +Sour_Grape nods and yawns, "Good, cause ah was woken up an' now Gwyen's all grumpy." She hops off Dust_Off and starsts towards the inn. "You wouldn't like her when she's grumpy."
06[22:38] * +Dust_Off smiles after the filly, "I'm sure Gwyen is an unholy plushy terror."
01[22:39] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Slag_Heap's in a rather comfortable position and is quite tired... simply laying in bed to keep Book Cover warm made staying awake rather difficult... infact... so difficult that the cyberstallion is snoring away, asleep.
06[22:39] * +Slag_Heap is actually in a chair, as stated before.
06[22:40] * +Sour_Grape tries to immitate what she imagines an angry griffin sounds like.
06[22:41] * +Sagittis can't help but giggle, knowing what his stepmom sounds like when she is mad.
06[22:41] * +Roy_Calbeck trudges through the town as the rising heat of the day and sleep deprivation wash across his mind. One thing he has in abundance, though, is stamina... he finds his way to Dust_Off at some point.
06[22:42] * +Dust_Off snickers and goes about bandaging the refugees and setting up the incense.  "Oh, Roy, there you are."  She yawns and shakes her head."
01[22:43] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Sour_Grape and Dust_Off feel the world noticably get duller in sight and sound... their minds feeling as if they're in a haze... Dust_Off even worse so, as the pegasus mare has yet to feel the dull ache of mint-al withdrawals... being exhausted on top of that, just made the experience even suckier.
01[22:44] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Regardless, Slag_Heap passes out.
06[22:44] * +Slag_Heap is indeed asleep. The behemoth doesn't snore though.
06[22:45] * +Sour_Grape bleehs and heads off to the inn, of course she actually gets the 45 caps and elivers them to the clinic first before going back again. She pauses when she realizes that Slag and the not-a-pegasus are in her room
06[22:45] * +Roy_Calbeck shakes his coat and mane out before responding. "Ma'am, here's the sitch: they grow crops in air-conditioned warehouses because th' land's lousy fer farmin'. If they had any pegasi help with weather to make that any better, it'd attract th' Mareizona Airborne Corps. An' their resources can't handle th' extra population. Either we figure how t' grow more crops here, set up
06[22:45] * +Roy_Calbeck a supply line with another town, or move th' entire group out..."
01[22:45] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Dust_Off finds that pretty much all the refugees are bandaged to a degree... Though a little more couldn't hurt. Overall, she uses up three rolls of bandages applying each to the ponies that require them.
[22:46] <+Roy_Calbeck> "...Downtrodden says if they can't all stay, they should likely all go, if they can."
01[22:48] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Pleasant Breeze thanks Sour_Grape in her usual nervous style for the caps back, and Sour_Grape pauses... in Daffodil's inn, in the main room. The mare of which is serving patrons and cleaning tables with her sickenly chipper attitude... why was she so pleasant and happy all the time? Weird bitch.
03[22:48] * Pantzar_ ([email protected]) has joined #FalloutEquestriaPNP
02[22:48] * Pantzar ([email protected]) Quit (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)
06[22:48] * +Sagittis yaws wide. "Did they AAAaaaaauuuhhh... think of trying to farm cactus fruits? They stop larg ground invasions and provide fruit all in one that grows in the dry, cracked ass of the world."
12[22:49] * Pantzar_ is now known as Pantzar
06[22:49] * +Sour_Grape doesn't really want to sleep with Slag in the room, so hijacks the second room instead.
01[22:50] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Lavender filly is fast asleep.
06[22:51] * +Roy_Calbeck turns his head to look at the fluffy colt. "They're up fer any suggestions, though Downtrodden said even with rain, they wouldn't expect t'be able t'sow enough t'feed this big a crowd regularly."
[22:51] <+Roy_Calbeck> "So I'm not sure cacti'd make a big enough difference."
06[22:53] * +Dust_Off finishes and starts the incense.  She yawns and drags herself towards the inn.  "Roy, we'll see what we can't do help glassy flats and these ponies.  There's been enough pain and charity."  She frowns.  "How did the Scorpions survive beyond banditry?  Any resources there...something to think on."
[22:53] <+Dust_Off> "And a spare defensible location."
06[22:57] * +Roy_Calbeck nods. "Prolly raided caravans out of Dune, or hit some other town we don't know about, further away. I doubt they had more than a local water supply."
06[22:57] * +Sagittis yawns again. "They had a mall. You may be able fix the air conditioning in there. Grow crops there. Me sleep now." He trudges down the street to Sightseer's house.
02[22:57] * +Dust_Off ([email protected]) Quit (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)
06[22:57] * +Roy_Calbeck nods. "It's an idea."
06[22:58] * +Roy_Calbeck follows Dust_Off to the inn... he's bushed as well.
03[22:59] * Dust_Off ([email protected]) has joined #FalloutEquestriaPNP
01[22:59] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 That's weird, Roy_Calbeck sure doesn't look like a bush... He and Dust Off make their way to the inn... perhaps Sagittis follows? Who knows with that colt!
07[22:59] * SilentBrony|GM sets mode: +v Dust_Off
06[23:00] * +Roy_Calbeck looks around for the bubbly young waitress.
06[23:01] * +Sagittis stated he was going back to Sightseer's place.
06[23:01] * +Dust_Off trudges upstairs to her room...finding Slag and Book.  The mare sighs and checks on Book Cover quickly.
06[23:02] * +Slag_Heap is in a chair next to the bed.
01[23:02] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Roy_Calbeck easily spots Daffodil in the main room, doing her thang as stated before. Dust_Off sees that both of them are sleeping and that Book Cover should recover if she's continued to remain resting as comfortably as she is now for the next few days or maybe even a week or so. Sagittis indeed did state his destination and finds himself at Sightseer's door once more.
06[23:03] * +Roy_Calbeck trudges over to Daffodil. "Pardon me, miss, I forget... did I rent a room today?"
06[23:04] * +Sagittis plods in, hugs Sightseer if she is there and just passes out on her for the cutes. If she is not, he passes out face first on her bed.
06[23:04] * +Dust_Off wanders over to checks the other rooms that were rented and joins Sour_Grape, slumping into bed in all her barding.
06[23:05] * +Sour_Grape snores adorable as she curls around Gwyen. Gwyen looks to be in a much better mood now.
06[23:05] * +Roy_Calbeck is covered in dust, has grit in places he prefers not to think about (and wouldn't, except it's rubbing him raw in those spots), and has a mane that looks like a wilted sagebrush plant at this point.
01[23:06] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Sightseer is quite surprised intially to see Sagittis break into her home, but relaxes with a very relieved sigh speaking, "Gracious, Sag-eetus, ya scared tha daylights outta me!" Seeing the colt pass out in her bed, the mare chuckles then shuts the door.
01[23:07] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Daffodil blinks to Roy_Calbeck and nods slowly, "Well, Miss Grape did for you all, I'm pretty sure... since... you all travel together... so yes, make yourself at home!" the bubbly, squeaky voiced mare says.
01[23:08] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Sightseer also returned Sagittis's hug.
06[23:09] * +Roy_Calbeck smiles, turns, and slogs his way upstairs. But still, the unicorn is not going to bed just yet... not until he's had a shower.
06[23:11] * +Roy_Calbeck shakes off his gear, slips into the shower, and spends so long with the hot water and soap that it's likely he'll end up just sleeping in there...
01[23:12] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Who's a silly pony? You're a silly pony, who is? You is, Roy_Calbeck!
01[23:17] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Roy_Calbeck sleeps in the shower... Good thing ponies can sleep while standing. Many hours pass and the group begins to stir and wake up. Roy_Calbeck being first, feeling rather chilly... really chilly.
01[23:17] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 The water also, is off curiously.
06[23:18] * +Roy_Calbeck blinkblinks awake... "Godsdammit..." The unicorn tries turning the hot water back on."
01[23:19] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 No water comes back on. No matter what knob Roy_Calbeck turns. Not too long after Slag_Heap awakens. Book Cover is still laying in the bed, sound asleep.
[23:19] <+Roy_Calbeck> "Bleerrghh...."
06[23:20] * +Slag_Heap rumbles slightly as he stretches. He looks Book over and sees she's still asleep. He kicks his hooves up and rests them on the bed, leaning back in his chair. Not leaving his post until ordered too.
06[23:20] * +Roy_Calbeck shakes out his coat and mane, then tries to find something to towel off with, or just someplace warm to dry.
01[23:20] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Convienently there is a towel on a rack for the white stallion to dry himself off of. Slag_Heap is mindless.
06[23:21] * +Slag_Heap is drone.
06[23:21] * +Slag_Heap is also comfortable and doesn't want to go out and fight shit
06[23:21] * +Slag_Heap is old.
06[23:21] * +Slag_Heap thinks everypony should get off his lawn.
06[23:23] * +Roy_Calbeck dries off, shakes the crud out of his barding and such, and gets dressed.
01[23:23] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Sagittis awakens  by himself in Sightseer's home... it being rather dark. On a table with three chairs surrounding it, there is a note on it, as well as a plate with a box of Sugar apple bombs and a bottle of water sitting on the top. The water is slightly murky.
01[23:28] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Sour_Grape and Dust_Off finally stir awake, the mint-al buddies both feeling somewhat rested, but not completely. Dusty's dull headache isn't as noticeable... though she has a strange nagging craving for some mintals that she hadn't had in the past.
06[23:29] * +Sour_Grape wakes up with a craving for mint-als. Just like every other day. She yawns and sreatches her limbs.
01[23:29] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Sour_Grape? Craving Mint-als? Nooooooo...
06[23:29] * +Roy_Calbeck slips out of the bathroom, out to the hallway, and down the stairs, hoping nopony notices he used all the water.
06[23:30] * +Dust_Off groans and rolls over.  The sleepy mare reaches into bags, reflexively.  She takes out a tin of Mintals and pops a dose in her mouth.
06[23:31] * +Sour_Grape looks over at Dust_Off when she smells mint-als. What is that pegasus doing. "Are you sleep doping?"
06[23:32] * +Dust_Off sighs with relief and looks bleary eyed at Grape,  "Hmm?"
01[23:32] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Roy_Calbeck notices outside is quite dark... Daffodil is no longer in the barroom, instead it being replaced with that rather ornery Griffoness that ran the nightshift, who... doesn't seem to take notice to the stallion. Dust_Off's world explodes once more in a fantastic display of light and sound... her mental capacities feel like they're reaching new heights never dreamed of in past. Her headache was completely non-existant as well... Wow Mint-als were so /awesome!/
06[23:32] * +Slag_Heap hums to himself softly, still on guard duty. Down time is best time.
01[23:33] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Slag_Heap had noticed that Roy_Calbeck had used their room and exited.
06[23:33] * +Sour_Grape stares at Dust_Off like she's insane
06[23:33] * +Slag_Heap didn't react fast enough. Damn these old senses!
06[23:33] * +Roy_Calbeck walks up to the griffoness. "Whatcha got in th' way of some hard liquor?"
06[23:35] * +Dust_Off stares at the filly, her euphoric smile fading with confusion and then horror as she looks down at the tin in her hooves, "Oh...oh no."
01[23:36] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 The Griffoness looks up and squints in a rather demused way, speaking in her gruff tone, "Oh well if it ain't the camel of the wastes. Get enough water up there?" rolling her eyes, the butch hybrid says, "We gots Whiskey, Vodka, or Rum."
06[23:36] * +Sagittis rolls out of bed and trudges over to the note to read it.
06[23:36] * +Sour_Grape "Well ya could at least share. Sheesh."
01[23:38] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 The note reads, 'Hope you sleep well Sagi, left this food by ya incase you felt hungry... No need to repay me, I insist. Stay safe and make sure the door is locked! Just push in the button thing on the knob. -xoxo Sightseer.'
06[23:39] * +Roy_Calbeck eyerolls. "Make it rum. I need somethin' t'cut all that water I drank."
01[23:40] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 The griffoness pulls out a bottle and slides it to the white stallion speaking, "Twenty caps."
06[23:40] * +Roy_Calbeck makes it twenty-five, sliding the cash over and levitating the bottle up for a swig.
06[23:41] * +Sagittis smiles and goes over to lock the door before returning to eat the cereal and drink the water. "Nice mare."
06[23:41] * +Dust_Off looks up at Sour_Grape, "Share?  I don't want to share!  I don't want to do this!"  She flings the empty tin away.
06[23:42] * +Sour_Grape watches her fling the tin away and rolls her eyes, "It ain't like dash'er rainboom or like heavy shit, fuck, calm down."
01[23:44] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 The griffoness grins slightly, then goes back to lazily rubbing down the counter with a rag. Nowhere as ethusiastic as Daffodil in the least... nowhere as pretty either.
06[23:46] * +Dust_Off grits her teeth, "No.  I made a promise.  I shouldn't do chems.  I don't do chems.   Chemers aren't winners."   She sighs and looks down at her hooves, "And I've done them twice....for..."  The mare stops and shakes her head.
01[23:47] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 A certain stablecolt would be quite proud of Dust_Off's PSA comment.
06[23:47] * +Sour_Grape blinks at Dust_Off and walks over, "Seriously, just, like, calm down. Roy's got that spell right? There's nothin'a worry bout. It'll be fiiiiine."
06[23:47] * +Roy_Calbeck doesn't seem to mind. He relaxes at the bar with his bottle of rum, waiting for the others to get up.
06[23:52] * +Dust_Off looks up at Grape, "I made a promise.  I made a promise to my uncle.   I have broken that promise, irrevocably.  Magic purge or not,  I chemmed twice.  And this is an addiction now, if i am not mistaken."
06[23:53] * +Sour_Grape "Or maybe you had a dream that you were an awesome pegasi filly, ain't yer fault. Really though, ah mean, like, just purge, yer uncle ain't gunna know or whatever."
01[23:56] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 On the jukebox, Roy_Calbeck can hear that sultury, smoky mare's voice speak, " -nd make your weapons useless... remember my lil' ponies, always keep up on your maintenence... In other news, It seems more and more territory is being expanded by not only the New Pony Legion, as they've recently taken the town of Gulch, but by the Mareizone Airborne Corps. as well, of which they've claimed... or.. in /their/ words.." MC Desert Rose clears her throat loudly, " 'liberated' the settlement of Shattered Palms... which puts them dangerously close to the gun-techies of Mercy... I can't even begin to tell you all, how exactly bad that'll be if they manage to mount a successful offensive on the town. If either faction manages to get their hooves over /that/ settlement, they'll have a huge advantage over the region." sighing for a moment, the MC then adds, "Ah really wish ah could tell ya more good news... but so far that's what's been shakin' down in our little slice of heaven... at least ah've got another DJ Pon-3 remix of. 'Winter Wrap-Up'... hope y'all enjoy..." not long after, the beats of electronic music begin to filter through the speakers, replacing the mare's voice, "Winter Wrap-up Winter Wrap-uuuuupp... let's finish our holiday cheer..."
06[23:58] * +Roy_Calbeck flicks an ear backwards, taking in all the information.
Session Time: Fri Feb 08 00:00:00 2013
06[00:00] * +Dust_Off shakes her head and gets up, "  'It's not who we are when the sun is shining for all to see, Windy.   It's who we are in the clouds.'  I'll know...."The mare says as if it was something she's heard so often.  The mare gets up and washes up, frowning more due to the cold water.
06[00:00] * +Sagittis takes a little time to clean up Sightseer's home before heading out to the main town.
01[00:00] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Dust_Off finds that no water runs in her room!
06[00:01] * +Dust_Off frowns,  No water.  The mare collects her things and steps out of the room to go down stairs.
06[00:01] * +Sour_Grape blinks at Dust_Off, "Was that even fucking equestrian? Okay you'll know, but ya ain't got a fuckin' time portal, so deal wif it."
[00:01] <+Roy_Calbeck> "Hm."  The blond-maned unicorn looks over at the griffoness. "Anyone around here got a map of th' region?"
01[00:01] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Being the good guest that he is, Sagittis tidies up Sightseer's home and goes back to the main square of town, finding that now it is well into the night. Once more the sparse amount of guards and townsponies meander about their nightly activities.
01[00:02] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 The griffoness looks up to Roy_Calbeck replying, "Check with Pumpkin Patch, she prolly does."
06[00:02] * +Roy_Calbeck nods. "Thanks." He swigs from the bottle again, then corks it off and puts it in his packs.
01[00:03] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 The griffoness nods to Roy_Calbeck.
06[00:04] * +Dust_Off stops and leans back into the room.  "Leave me be, Sour.   It's enough that....never mind."  The mare walks down stairs to look for Daffodil Only to not find the bouncy mare and that it is very dark.
06[00:05] * +Roy_Calbeck looks up as his captain arrives. "Mornin', ma'am. Water's out."
06[00:05] * +Sagittis takes a deep breath of night air and goes to the inn.
06[00:05] * +Sour_Grape blinks at Dust_Off, "What the fuuuuuck. Seriously. Dust. You can't just do that and be all Sagi about it."
01[00:05] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Dust_Off sees Roy_Calbeck and the griffoness that ran the night shift of the bar. Outside it was quite dark, not inside, it was well lit with various scavenged pre-war magical lanterns.
06[00:05] * +Roy_Calbeck chimes in quickly, "Also, we got a report off th' radio that both th' M.A.C. an' N.P.L.'re expandin'. Each took a town, an' it sounds like th' Enclave is close t'takin' a major weapons center.
01[00:06] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Now Sagittis is at the bar room!
06[00:08] * +Dust_Off looks back at Sour_Grape, "I made a promise to my uncle.  My only family.   I broke it.   That means a great deal to me.  And both times I chemmed?   I did to save you, that's what i haven't been saying."
06[00:09] * +Sour_Grape nods slowly, "So ya did it for a good cause!"
01[00:09] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Once again the barroom which is connected by a set of stairs leading up to the bedrooms above on the second floor, has two doors on the bottom floor, besides the exit, One of which leading to the backroom, the other, not explored. The barroom has a barcounter and enough space for about 7 medium sized tables, though there were only 3 medium sized tables, the rest of which were smaller sized tables.
01[00:11] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Currently there is three other ponies inside, all of which are at one of the medium sized tables conversing with one another, two of which look like townsponies, the other a refugee pegasus mare who was... well looked as if she was enjoying  the attention she was recieving from the other two.
06[00:14] * +Dust_Off nods slowly, "And I'd do it again.  And thus I'm still a failure."   She ignores the other three and angles towards Roy_Calbeck, "Roy.  Roy, I need your help."
06[00:14] * +Sour_Grape doesn't understand Dust_Off at all right now so she goes into Slag's room to get her stuff and hide Gwyen before going back downstairs
06[00:15] * +Roy_Calbeck blinks. "...ma'am?"
06[00:15] * +Sagittis blinks at the pegasi and her two admirers. "Oh, poor baby." He mumbles under his breath as he looks over at Dust_Off and Roy_Calbeck.
01[00:16] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Book Cover stirs slightly and awakens once Sour_Grape gathers her possessions. The mare shakes her head slightly then looks over at the filly, saying, "O-Oh... hello... Y.. Y-you're with tha-that nice mare that is h-helping us right? D-Dust_Off?"
06[00:16] * +Sour_Grape doesn't go downstairs she says to Book Cover, "Ya huh. Should ah getter fer ya. Be warned she's fuckin' loopy when she just got up."
03[00:17] * Flashbang ([email protected]) has left #FalloutEquestriaPNP
06[00:17] * +Dust_Off glances away, "Roy, I need you to use that Detox spell on me.  I have become addicted to Mintals.  My last dose was a few minutes ago."
06[00:18] * +Roy_Calbeck nods, charges up his horn, and promptly wraps Dust_Off in a warm glow of mellow white. "Let's take care of that right now."
01[00:19] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Book Cover tilts her head to Sour_Grape for a moment, then mumbles out loud enough for her to hear, "M-Must... b-be... the... c-conta-contamination of th-the land... C-Celestia... s-save us..." going back to the filly, she adds with a smile, "J-just... please... give her... m-my thanks... a-and the thanks f-for the rest of us... You're a-all... mi-miracles i-in e-equine f-form."
06[00:20] * +Sour_Grape "Dunno why yer askin' a dead mare ta help ya when she clearly ain't already." She says about Celestia, then she nods, "Will doo, tll me if ya need anythin' or anythin."
06[00:21] * +Dust_Off tensely stands still, being wrapped in magic isn't...magical to her mind.
01[00:23] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Roy_Calbeck's horn hums and gradually glows brighter and brighter before he touches Dust_Off with it, a surge of soothing light runs it's way from his horn throughout her entire body, fading after a couple of minutes. Once done, Dust_Off feels her thirst and hunger increase exponentionally. The pegasus mare has no idea if the spell has effectively worked, as she can't feel the withdrawal effects while still actually on the chem presently.
02[00:25] * +Slag_Heap ([email protected]) Quit (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)
01[00:25] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Dust_Off actually feels the mint-als end as well... though she doesn't feel the physical withdrawls of mint-als... something still bites at her to take a tin.
06[00:26] * +Sagittis twitches his eye and mutters some more. "He has a detox spell and we spent a small fortune cleaning me and Sour up?"
06[00:26] * +Roy_Calbeck eyes Sagittis. "I picked it up *since* then."
06[00:26] * +Dust_Off feels weak in the legs and kneels down down for a moment.  She takes a deep breath and closes her eyes.  "i don't need it.   I don't need it."  She whispers to herself.
06[00:27] * +Sour_Grape was never cleaned up sillies
06[00:27] * +Roy_Calbeck leans in close and nuzzles Dust_Off supportively. "I've got some food and water here, and I can get you cleaned up. C'mon, sit down."
06[00:27] * +Roy_Calbeck looks around. "At a table, that is."
06[00:28] * +Dust_Off stands up and totters to a table, "Water.  There isn't any water in the rooms."
01[00:29] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 The griffoness pipes up to Dust_Off's words, pointing a talon to Roy_Calbeck, "Blame him for that."
06[00:29] * +Dust_Off sits down and looks at Roy.
06[00:30] * +Roy_Calbeck goes to the table and takes three water bottles from his pack. "Here." Shortly, he floats out a box of Caramel Apple Bombs as well.
06[00:30] * +Sour_Grape wonders if the mare is going to reply, if not she walks out of the room, takes some mintals, and heads downstairs
06[00:31] * +Sagittis growls a little and shoulders up to Melody's room.
01[00:32] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Book Cover looks to Sour_Grape and speaks, "N-No... t-thank y-you..."
06[00:32] * +Dust_Off starts drinking the water slowly and munching on the sugar apple bombs.
[00:33] <+Roy_Calbeck> "As I was sayin', I've also got a clean-up spell, since th' showers're out.  I can give everyone a basic wash-up."
06[00:35] * +Sour_Grape heads downstairs then, woohoo
03[00:36] * Hobo ([email protected]) has joined #FalloutEquestriaPNP
07[00:36] * SilentBrony|GM sets mode: +v Hobo
06[00:36] * +Dust_Off hears of the clean up spell and instantly zeroes in on Sour_Grape.  "Brilliant spell for a desert, Sergeant."
12[00:36] * Hobo is now known as Slag_Heap
[00:37] <+Roy_Calbeck> "When y'can't find a clean source of water, or hafta conserve... yes, ma'am."
01[00:38] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Book Cover looks to Slag_Heap a little warily and asks, "A-Are... y-you... g-going to be... j-joining your g-g-... group?"
06[00:38] * +Sagittis nods to Sour_Grape as they pass in the hall, still twitchy.
06[00:38] * +Sour_Grape waves a wing at Sagi, "Hi twitchy, bye twitch." SHe walks over to Dust_Off, "Whats going on."
06[00:39] * +Slag_Heap sighs. "Sometimes I wonder that myself." He grunts and stands. "Getting too old for this shit... you gonna be okay?"
01[00:39] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 All this waiting was making the flufflecolt quite on edge... so much waiting... fuck, why couldn't his eye stop twitching? Boom... he needed it... Gotta have the boom... boom boom boom... all the boom...
06[00:40] * +Dust_Off sighs.  She shouldn't do that to Grape.  She looks up at Roy.  "This cleaning spell...you don't...feel what you're cleaning do you?"
01[00:40] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Book Cover flattens her ears looking rather uncertain, but she replies regardless to Slag_Heap, "Y-Yes... I.. I'll be f-f... fine..."
06[00:41] * +Slag_Heap frowns slightly. "Are you sure? I don't want to go running off on you."
06[00:41] * +Roy_Calbeck raises an eyebrow. "No more'n I can feel yer bloodstream when I purge ya."
01[00:42] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Book Cover nods slowly, looking to her covers then slinks down in them slightly, "Y... Yes... I won't be a b-burden to your p-party fu-further. You've all d-done e-enough."
06[00:44] * +Dust_Off matches Roy's raised eyebrow and stares at him for a moment.  "Alright...cast."
06[00:44] * +Slag_Heap nods and places a hoof on her forehead. "You are feeling a little better." He scrunches his muzzle. "Alright, just stay comfy and rest up. I'll have someone come and check on you, okay?"
06[00:44] * +Roy_Calbeck flashes a wave of energy across Dust_Off's length and breadth, sweeping away the dirt and grime and dust almost effortlessly.
01[00:46] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Ohhh baby, get dat Pegasus clean Roy_Calbeck. Awwww yeeeeaaa.... across Dust_Off's length and breadth is right... heh heh heh. Good excuse you used as well...
01[00:46] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 No, really, he just cleaned Dust_Off by magical means, nothing illicit about it.
[00:47] <+Dust_Off> Dust_Off is dusted off.  She looks at her wings and her mane.  Still immaculate.  She nods, "Thank you, Roy."  She turns to the griffoness, "I'm sorry my friend used the water.  Can we do anything to help?"
06[00:47] * +Roy_Calbeck sighs, the spell having done its work. "As fer th' water in th' rooms... I fell asleep in th' shower. Like an idiot."
06[00:48] * +Sour_Grape face tables. "I'm bored."
01[00:48] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 The griffoness looks over at the pegasexy mare and replies, "If you want, you could buy somethin."
06[00:49] * +Dust_Off nods, "Sure, are you offering any specials?"
01[00:50] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 The griffoness just stares at Dust_Off, "Uhh sure, it's, not charging you extra for tapping out what little water we have special. How's that?" how rude!
06[00:51] * +Roy_Calbeck snifsnifs the air, then scrunches up his muzzle and looks at Sour_Grape.
06[00:51] * +Sour_Grape lifts her head up, "And now more forehead hurts."
[00:51] <+Sour_Grape> my*
01[00:51] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Sour_Grape smells like dirty gym clothes. A step up from her usual scent of eau du rancid garbage.
06[00:52] * +Sour_Grape doesn't wanna shower.
06[00:52] * +Slag_Heap waits for Book's reply
01[00:52] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Book Cover nods also to Slag_Heap, replying, "Th-Thank you..."
06[00:53] * +Sagittis knocks on Melody's door.
06[00:53] * +Slag_Heap smiles and nods. "Anytime, Book. It was nice meeting you." He picks up his gear and marches for the door. "Hope to see you again." He leaves the room and heads down stairs.
01[00:54] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Slag_Heap notices Sagittis knocking on Melody's room door as he makes his way downstairs. The flufflecolt gets no response...
06[00:54] * +Roy_Calbeck squints through one eye at the filthy little filly.
06[00:54] * +Slag_Heap is a poor pony, he can only afford his fucks. He spreads them over the floor, but treads lightly! For he steps on nothing. He heads downstairs.
06[00:56] * +Dust_Off deadpans, "My goodness, your impressive sales technique has won me over.  Surely, Daffodil treasures your charming demeanor."  She rolls her eyes, "What food do you have?  And do you have vodka?"
02[00:56] * Bravo ([email protected]) Quit (Quit: ChatZilla 0.9.88 [Firefox 18.0.2/20130201065344])
[00:57] <+Slag_Heap> "I got whiskey." He says as he reaches the bottom of the stairs.
06[00:57] * +Sour_Grape raises an eyebrow at Dust_Off, "Did'ja not get 'nough sleep?"
06[00:58] * +Sagittis sighs and trudges back down stairs.
06[01:00] * +Dust_Off glances at Sour_Grape, "If this were all a dream..."
06[01:00] * +Sour_Grape "Yer talkin' all weird 'gain..."
06[01:01] * +Roy_Calbeck flashes his Clean spell at Sour Grape!
06[01:04] * +Slag_Heap approaches the group. "Why are we looking for hard booze?"
01[01:04] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 The griffones gives a slight frown to Dust_Off speaking still in her gruff tone, "Y'know... this town might bend over backwards for you, but I ain't an idiot. Water is worth way more than caps, ammo, or shit... even food... Daffy is a sweet mare, but let's say she ain't the brightest. I waltzed in here for my shift and she was wondering still if she should turn the water off, even though it had been going non-stop for two hours straight... that's.. a /lot/ of water just... gone... and I don't think you actually used it... if it were up to me... I'd had you given up all the water you had, but she's... nice... so even though you wasted our precious water, she /still/ ain't gonna say nothing.... but I'm sure as fuck ain't gonna sell you our shit for cheap.. So yeah, we got vodka, twenty caps a bottle. We got just a little bit of pre-war food left is all... your pick of either BlamCo Mac & Cheese, Dandy Buck Apples, or Potato Crisps at five caps a pop... and we hardly got any left."
12[01:05] * Karina is now known as Deft_Embrace
12[01:05] * Deft_Embrace is now known as Karina
06[01:06] * +Slag_Heap frowns and looks at the group. "You guys used up thier water? May I ask why?"
06[01:06] * +Sagittis smirks a little with half guilty pleasure at seeing Dust_Off and Roy_Calbeck getting chewed out for wasting resources.
06[01:06] * +Sour_Grape is suddenly being cleaned for some reason, "Argh what."
06[01:07] * +Roy_Calbeck takes back his water bottles, once Dusty's done with them, and brings them up to the counter, putting them --- and three other empties --- on its surface. "Six bottles of clean water." Before the griffoness can say anything, he floats all seven of his golden doubloons out and onto the counter.
[01:08] <+Roy_Calbeck> "That oughta cover both th' water an' th' waste.  Sale?"
02[01:08] * Karina ([email protected]) Quit (Quit: )
01[01:09] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 The griffoness frowns to Roy_Calbeck and says to him, "No, it's not fucking sale, wanna know why? Because if Daffodil finds out you paid even though it /was/ a complete waste, she's gonna be really upset with me. So keep your shit, if your parting with your caps, you're buying something."
02[01:10] * +Slag_Heap ([email protected]) Quit (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)
06[01:10] * +Roy_Calbeck glares back. "All right then, I am. So long as I get th' water... and a kiss off that beak of yours."
06[01:11] * +Dust_Off nods, "I'm not asking for charity.  One of ours screwed up.   I'll take five bottles of vodka."  The mare takes out a 100 caps and puts them on the bar, "As for how we could help, that is what I wanted to know.  You need a water reclamation system.  It's horrific to just waste water in a desert.  You should be recycling."
03[01:12] * Hobo ([email protected]) has joined #FalloutEquestriaPNP
07[01:13] * SilentBrony|GM sets mode: +v Hobo
12[01:13] * Hobo is now known as Slag_Heap
06[01:14] * +Sagittis blinks at Roy_Calbeck's balls at trying to buy a kiss from the griffoness. He kinds hoped the lady would take it as being called a hussy and smack him about the muzzle.
06[01:14] * +Slag_Heap looks around. "Hey, yoohoo, I'm talking to you guys."
01[01:14] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 The griffoness looks none the bit happier at Roy_Calbeck's snarky response but complies, filling up his water bottles and saying, "I ain't got anymore fresh bottles of clean water to give, you'll have to make do with the refills, Fourty eight caps." giving the vodka bottles to Dust_Off, the griffoness takes her one hundred caps then speaks to her, "Go talk ta Downtrodden then, I just cover the nights fer Daffy."
06[01:16] * +Dust_Off looks back at Slag_Heap, "Roy, fell asleep in the shower."  She thinks to herself, "You know if we went off site...i could make rain and bring water back and keep it off the town's blame."
06[01:17] * +Slag_Heap looks at Roy_Calbeck. "Seriously?"
06[01:17] * +Sour_Grape perks up, "Can I make rain?"
06[01:17] * +Roy_Calbeck hangs his head and blows out. "Yeah."
06[01:17] * +Slag_Heap snorts. "nice." He looks at Dust_Off. "Why so much vodka?"
06[01:18] * +Roy_Calbeck shrugs, takes back his dubloons as well as the refills, and puts exactly 48 caps on the counter.
06[01:18] * +Sagittis chuckles. Maybe to kill the part of his brain that thought the shower was a good place to sleep."
06[01:19] * +Sagittis chuckles. "Maybe to kill the part of his brain that thought the shower was a good place to sleep."
06[01:19] * +Roy_Calbeck raises an eyebrow at the fluffy colt. "Woke up with an extra side of snark this mornin', din'cha kid?"
01[01:19] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 The griffoness takes the caps while glaring at Roy_Calbeck. Afterwards she sucks in what appears to be a long calming breath, then looks to the rest of the party, asking rather irritatedly, "Is there anything... else... you all need?" the bitchy avian-hybrid then crosses her forelegs together.
06[01:20] * +Sagittis nods. "Comes with getting kicked in the balls from withdrawls for doing something I think was wrong."
06[01:21] * +Roy_Calbeck mm-hms. "Need a purge?"
06[01:22] * +Dust_Off glances at Sagittis, "Disinfectant...or flamer fuel."  She bags her purchase and sits down.  "Yes, Grape,  you could.  It will be some time until we can train you to that level."
06[01:22] * +Sour_Grape frowns, "Aw..."
06[01:23] * +Slag_Heap nods at Dust_Off. "Just as long as ya aint becoming an alcho on us, cap." He looks at Sagittis. "I doubt it. I was under the impression Roy was more brain dead than I am." He throws a smirk at Roy_Calbeck.
06[01:24] * +Roy_Calbeck tosses a grin back. "No bath for you."
06[01:24] * +Sagittis blinks at Roy_Calbeck. "This is going to suck, isn't it?" He glances to Dust_Off. "What? Why would I need disinfectant of flamer fuel?" He tilts his head to Slag_Heap. "You doubt what?"
06[01:25] * +Slag_Heap "Roy actually having those cells." He looks at Roy. "You think not having a bath's stopped me before?"
06[01:26] * +Roy_Calbeck ignores Slag and casts a Purge on Sagittis. Whole lotta magic flarin' up in this bar tonight.
06[01:26] * +Slag_Heap gives Roy_Calbeck a hearty pat on the back and a laugh. "Only pulling yer leg, Roy." He looks the party over. "Soemthing tells me I'm the only one who got a decent night's sleep."
06[01:27] * +Dust_Off rolls her eyes, "An answer to Slag's question and your snide remark.   Disinfectant for when i run out of potions or fuel for Slag's flamer."
06[01:27] * +Roy_Calbeck distinctly hopes that hearty pat in mid-spell didn't blow his concentration.
01[01:27] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Roy_Calbeck once again works his magic, recreating the exact same illumination as his horn touches the flufflecolt... Colt Hansen looks like he's about to say something before he realizes whats going on and just slinks back into the shadows from whence he came. Afterwards, just like Dust_Off, Sagittis no-longer feels the physical withdrawls of Rainboom, however he does feel incredibly hungry and thirsty as if he's been without days of sustenance. Also... there is a lingering nagging desire to pop more of the boom.
06[01:29] * +Sagittis groans as he is massively dehydrated and hungry. He blinks and looks over to Sour_Grape. "Mmmmm... chicken wings..."
06[01:30] * +Roy_Calbeck looks to Dust_Off. "That reminds me, ma'am... you okay fer food? Ya only had one box, even though it was that Caramel Apple stuff."
06[01:30] * +Sour_Grape narrows her eyes at Sagittis, "Ah'm too skinny ta eat."
06[01:31] * +Sagittis chuckles. "Hardly. I saw Roy cleaning you."
06[01:31] * +Slag_Heap looks at Roy_Calbeck, then Dust_Off. "I'm outta caps, spent almost all of it on that resupply for your patients."
06[01:32] * +Sour_Grape "Whats that gotta do with mah skinniness?"
06[01:32] * +Dust_Off glares at Sagittis, "Don't joke about that."   She looks at Slag_Heap, "What do you need?"
01[01:32] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 There's a sharp shrieking coming from the three ponies in the far off corner of the bar, the Pegasus mare now has both of her conversationlist partners seem to be mare-handling her. The earth pony stallion is attempting to pin her down, by her forelegs as she backpeddles, while the unicorn mare at her side seems to be focusing her magic, creating a telekinetic stream behind the pegasus. The griffoness nightshift employee looks over and yells out loudly to the trio, "Hey! Knock that shit out before I call the guards!"
06[01:33] * +Slag_Heap shrugs. "Just about anything really. Only thing I have is a bottle of whiskey."
06[01:34] * +Slag_Heap looks into the corner. "OI!" he yells in his gruffest, most commanding voice. "What's going on?!"
06[01:34] * +Dust_Off spins and takes to the air.  "Let her go."  The mare in recon armor with the beam rifle slung over her back commands.
06[01:34] * +Sour_Grape looks over at the commotion and grabs for her shotgun, "You fuckers leave her alone or ah'll pump ya so full'a lead... something witty'll happen."
06[01:34] * +Slag_Heap stomps over, his guns ready. "And don't bother lyin."
06[01:35] * +Slag_Heap activates his pilot light for extra intimidation.
01[01:37] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 The two other ponies turn to face the group, with the stallion yelling out initally, "Mind yer own fuck--...in.... busi...." the rest of his fluffed up words trail off to a rather nervous tone, as he gives a fairly frightened smile, "eerr... s-sorry?" The unicorn mare turns and equally looks scarred, going wide-eyed, as her magic cuts out. The pegasus mare takes this time to give them both a slap, then rushes over to the group, "Thank y'all so much! Those shit-eaters been drinkin' one too many..."
06[01:38] * +Sagittis read 'stinky'. He shrugs before tilting his head to Dust_Off. "What?" He looks over his shoulder and thuds over to the group, stepping up behind the unicorn and placing his Par-T-Cannon flush against her backside. "Hi."
06[01:39] * +Slag_Heap looks back at the mare. "We got it from here, ma'am." He looks at the marehandlers. "Alright you two. What can you tell me that will make try to stop my fuzzy friend here from blowing something painful up yer ass?"
01[01:40] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Sagittis doesn't get enough time to close the distance to get /behind/ the unicorn mare, as she and the stallion were quite close to the wall. When the unicorn mare saw him advancing, she backed up against the wall completely, with her face trickling down beads of sweat. The griffoness growls slightly then says to the party, "One of you get the guards... or Tiny."
06[01:41] * +Sagittis gets a predatory grin. "No worry, ma'am. I think I got this if you don't mind." He keeps advancing slowly.
06[01:42] * +Dust_Off glances at Sagittis, "No, colt.   You go get Tiny.  mow."
[01:42] <+Dust_Off> *Now
01[01:44] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 The earth pony stallion speaks up, as the unicorn mare shakes from the sight of the advancing flufflecolt and his party cannon of doom, "W-We'r-We're s-sorry! J-Just o-one t-too many is a-all! W-We'll g-go to the s-stockades ju-just do-don't k-kill us, p-please!" The griffoness gives another growling and says, "Nopony is dying... but your both gonna hafta pay for tryin to have your way with that mare." the pegasus mare looks from group member to group member with varying degrees of fascination.
06[01:45] * +Sour_Grape puts her shotgun away when theres not more chance of violence and goes back to looking bored
06[01:46] * +Roy_Calbeck looks to Dust_Off. "Ma'am, as soon as Sagittis gets back, we should have a strategy session."
06[01:46] * +Slag_Heap turns off his pilot light and narrows his eyes. "I think its time you two took a long walk outta here." He glares more intensly. "And if we hear about anymore of this shit, you can be damn sure there'll be hell to pay." He growls. "Are we clear?!" he barks in true sargy fashion.
01[01:47] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Both the offending ponies nod rapidly to Slag_Heap.
06[01:47] * +Dust_Off nods, "Agreed, Sergeant."  She looks at Slag, "Stop."  She looks at the offenders, "You stay here for the guards."
06[01:48] * +Slag_Heap grinds his hoof into the floorboards. "You two lucked out."
06[01:48] * +Sour_Grape looks over at the pegasus mare, "Ya gotta name, er what?"
06[01:48] * +Sagittis chuckles. Silly pegasus. "Last I checked, soldiers had silly things like rules and the need to follow orders. Funny thing is, I'm not a soldier." He lowers his voice. "I don't have those rules. Now, I am thinking these two will be making a massive, charitable contribution to the refugees fund and relocate to a place more tolerant of rapists. Dune maybe..."
01[01:50] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 The pegasus mare the group had saved from possible rape nods to Sour_Grape speaking with a smile, "Soybean."
06[01:50] * +Roy_Calbeck narrows his eyes at the zebra colt. "Captain said let th' guards handle it, Sagi."
06[01:50] * +Sour_Grape "Yer a lucky mare, ain't'cha. So what was that all 'bout?"
06[01:51] * +Dust_Off glares at Sagittis, "For someone preoccupied with asking permission of the town's government yesterday, you're willfully ignoring it now for vigilantism.  Stop."
01[01:53] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 The two ponies having their fates decided just continue to sweat and shake in fear, the unicorn mare in particular closes her eyes when Sagittis speaks further, completely unnerved by his words. Soybean frowns and replies to Sour_Grape, "Stupid... ah was talkin ta them, and... yea... ah'll admit, we was gettin a lil frisky, but then they started talkin' 'bout how nice mah feathers would feel... an... way-ell... theys wuldn't stop feelin of em... started ta make me feel all weird... so I told um ta stop an' they wuldn't."
01[01:54] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 The griffoness grumbles to herself, something about having to do everything herself, then gets out from behind the barcounter and heads out towards the door to exit.
06[01:54] * +Sour_Grape nods at the mare, "Ya should invest inna shotgun. Momma told me ta shoot anypony what didn't know what no meant."
01[01:55] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 The pegasus mare smiles to Sour_Grape, "Sounds like-uh smart mama... maybe ah'll start doin that... wutcher name by the way sugah?"
06[01:55] * +Sagittis rolls his eyes and glances to Roy_Calbeck. "I'm not a soldier, Roy. Dust's imaginary rank means nada to me." He stops and narrows his eyes to Dust_Off. "Really? Fucking really? You two are starting to make me sick." He spits on the floor. "First helping traitors, now being soft on rapists? What, we going to treat a cannibal to a fresh meal next?!" He snorts and walks out of the inn.
06[01:56] * +Slag_Heap watches Sagittis leave, then looks at Dust_Off and Roy_Calbeck. "Makes me wonder why you keep him around... its the guns, isn't it?"
06[01:56] * +Roy_Calbeck rolls his eyes.
06[01:56] * +Sour_Grape watches Sagittis leave, "Huh? Whys gettin' that guards ta arrest them bein' soft?" She shrugs and says to the mare, "Ah'm Sour Grape."
06[01:57] * +Roy_Calbeck nods to the pegasus mare. "Pleasure t'be of service, ma'am."
06[01:58] * +Sagittis calls over his shoulder. "From what the Griffin said, the guards will just fine them. That is going easy."
06[01:58] * +Dust_Off snaps a glance at Roy, "Watch the perps, Gunny."  The mare takes to the air and zips in front of Sagittis, "I am damn well getting tired of your unilateral, self righteous manure."
06[01:58] * +Roy_Calbeck does so, keeping a watchful eye on the two molesters.
01[01:59] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 The griffoness stops once Sagittis trots out before her then blinks and says, "Rapists don't get fines..." Once outside... both Dust_Off and Sagittis can see roving town guards.... some ways off down the center street was Tiny, head of the guard himself.
06[01:59] * +Slag_Heap locks his steel gaze which made many a recruit shit themselves back in the day, on the perps. He grinds his teeth slightly, hoping he still had it...
12[02:00] * Arcane_Scroll is now known as Arcane_Sleeping[A]
06[02:04] * +Dust_Off turns away from Sagittis,  "Tiny!  We need guards in the Inn!"
06[02:05] * +Sagittis leers at Dust_Off. "We will need to have a chat when this is settled, I think."
01[02:05] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Soybean just looks between the remaining group members in the inn, the two ponies try not to look directly at Slag_Heap as he gives them his steely disapproving gaze with grinding teeth. The griffoness sighs then mutters some more, going back behind the barcounter and disappearing in the room behind, as Soybean finally speaks again, "Uh... n-nice ta meetcha Sour_Grape... thank ya kindly again fer helpin me out..." Tiny turns with a couple of guards that are much closer nearby. The guards are first to respond, about three in total, as the larger heavy-set head guard rushes his way to the inn, a little ways off.
06[02:07] * +Sour_Grape nods at Soybean, "Notta problem." She sighs, "Ya need a drink'er'somthin?"
01[02:11] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Soybean furrows her brow and replies to Sour_Grape, "Ah'm done drinkin' anything else, unless it's a sparkle cola, or a nice Sunrise sarsparilla..." The barroom fills up with three of the guards from outside, looking at the remaining party members who were currently present, as the griffoness comes back out with a caravan shotgun... to which she looks very much relieved when the guards show up. One of the guards, a skinnier unicorn stallion wearing old leather armor with embrodiery on his chest that reads simply, 'Guard' on it, asks, "What's going on?"
06[02:12] * +Dust_Off nods to Sagittis, "We shall."  She goes back with the guards into the inn.
06[02:13] * +Roy_Calbeck pokes a hoof at the two against the wall. "They were molesting the pegasus lady, turned into an assault when she said no."
06[02:13] * +Sagittis looks over at the guards. "Two rapists inside."
06[02:13] * +Slag_Heap keeps his gaze on the rapists. He seemed to have maintained what made his troops fear him. Great!
06[02:14] * +Sour_Grape notices the guards, "They'll wanna talk'ta ya ah bet" then she says to the waitress, "C'n ah get a sunrise sasprilla for the mare, 'ere'"
01[02:17] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 The two ponies look at each other for a moment with one of them speaking quietly to the other, "Oh... we really fucked ourselves this time..." to which... the unicorn stallion approaches the two bellowing out dramatically, "Stop right there criminal scum! I need to hear of their story, then we will address you." Turning back to Roy_Calbeck, Sagittis, and Dust_Off, he asks quieter, "I see... what did you each see from your perspective?" the griffoness looks to Sour_Grape and says, "Ten caps for a sparkle cola or Sunrise sarsparilla."
06[02:18] * +Sour_Grape hooves ovet twenty caps, "Two Sunrise Saprilla."
01[02:18] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Tiny rushes up to the inn finally, panting and sweating, looking to the group as he takes a moment to recover his breath. The griffoness takes the caps and slides out two sunrise sarsparillas to the filly, then makes her way to the guards.
06[02:18] * +Sagittis waves his hoof to Dust_Off and Roy_Calbeck. "How about you and your little soldier colt go first?"
06[02:20] * +Roy_Calbeck nods to the guard as though Sagi had said nothing. "When I first came down here, all three of them were sharing a table and enjoying one another's company. Our party came downstairs from our rooms, one by one, and began discussing our own business, when we heard a scream. Turning around, we saw the two over there assaulting the pegasus, who was trying to get away from
06[02:20] * +Roy_Calbeck them."
06[02:21] * +Slag_Heap keeps the perps down.. with the STARE!
12[02:21] * Slag_Heap is now known as Flutter_Heap
[02:21] <+Roy_Calbeck> "We secured those two and were directed to get you by the bar-keep."
12[02:22] * Flutter_Heap is now known as Slag_Heap
06[02:22] * +Dust_Off glares at Sagittis, "We saw this pegasus mare with those two,"  She points out the perpetrators.  "We were minding our own business when the pegasus mare screamed.  We all turned and the earth pony was hold the pegasus' forelegs down while the unicorn was casting magic behind her.   The mare appeared unconsenting so we intervened."  She looks at Soybean, "Ma'am, your turn?"
01[02:22] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 The unicorn guard nods to Roy_Calbeck looking to the rest of the party and asking, "Is this pretty much the same thing you all witnessed yourselves? Or is there any details he may be leaving out?" The griffoness looks over to Tiny and nods to the large buck. Tiny makes his way finally over to the group, listening in as one of the other guards fill him in of the situation in whispers.
01[02:24] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 The guard got muled by the way! Appropriate given the source...
06[02:25] * +Dust_Off is metadisgruntled.  She wants nothing to do with mules.
06[02:25] * +Sagittis nods to the guards. "They refused to desist when ordered by all parties here until we drew weapons on them. For what it's worth"
06[02:25] * +Roy_Calbeck is perfectly gruntled as regarding mules.
06[02:26] * +Roy_Calbeck ahems. "Actually, as soon as they were ordered to desist, we drew weapons."
06[02:26] * +Dust_Off glances at Sagittis, "You and Slag drew weapons."
01[02:27] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 The offending unicorn mare though thoroughly stared into submission by Slag_Heap protests loudly, "That's not true! We totally stopped when they said so!" the griffoness shakes her head.
06[02:28] * +Sagittis lifts an eyebrow. "I'm sorry. Correction, they told us to 'fuck off and mind our own business' till they saw our drawn weapons. Better?"
01[02:29] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Tiny clears his throat... his... amusingly super high pitched voice cutting through the din of shouting and such, "Enough... it really doesn't matter at this point whether or not /when/ they stopped, so far everyone's on the same page... including the perps...." he looks over at the unicorn mare who... shrinks back more.
06[02:30] * +Dust_Off smirks, "No, it is was more them nearly pissing themselves when they saw who we were."  She quiets and nods to Tiny.
06[02:32] * +Sagittis rolls his eyes and shakes his head. Always had to get the last word...
01[02:33] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Tiny looks to the Mareizona Irregulars speaking, "We can deal with it from here on out. Thank you guys, once again helping us out... we're not Dune... we won't allow that kind of stuff to happen here... especially not on my watch." Motioning to the guards they stand nearby with their weapons trained and order the two ponies to sit down and await further orders, to which Tiny motions for Soybean to him, "In need to hear your story, then hers... then them." he motions to the griffoness then to the two perps. Soybean nods and looks over to the group, particularly to Sour_Grape, "Thank y'all kindly again... and thank you Sour... keep listenin to yer mama, she's a real smart mare." giving the filly a wink, she then goes over to Tiny.
06[02:34] * +Sour_Grape blinks at Soybean. "Was." She corrects quietly. "An' will do, ya keep safe now." She sips her soda.
06[02:34] * +Roy_Calbeck nods at Dust_Off. "Should we get that strategy meetin' going, ma'am?"
06[02:35] * +Dust_Off sits down near Sour_Grape.  She glances at Roy and Sagittis, and Slag_Heap, "Yes we should."
06[02:35] * +Slag_Heap takes his gaze off the perps and shakes himself. "Hoo that felt good." He sits down. "Just like old times."
06[02:35] * +Roy_Calbeck takes a seat, floating two packets of potato chips out of his packs and setting them in the middle of the table for meeting snacks.
01[02:36] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Oh boy I hope he also brought Juice boxes!
06[02:36] * +Roy_Calbeck wishes he had some.
06[02:39] * +Sagittis watches the perps get led off. "I have a sinking feeling they are going to get off light..." The flufflecolt blinks at Slag_Heap. "Wouldn't old times be you joining in or extorting them for damages to some higher up's property?" He looks back to Dust_Off, Roy_Calbeck, Sour_Grape, ready for the talk.
06[02:39] * +Slag_Heap looks at Sagittis. "Funny, I'd say the same thing about you."
06[02:39] * +Roy_Calbeck looks around the table. "Maybe I should start off with what I just heard from the radio before you all came down."
01[02:40] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 The perps are actually being questioned right there first, they haven't gone anywhere yet. Even now the group can hear Soybean give her version of the events leading up to the groups intervention.
06[02:40] * +Dust_Off facehoofs, "Stop bickering.  Roy, go ahead."
06[02:40] * +Sour_Grape raises a hoof, "Point of order. I demand a wrestling match between Slag and Sagi to prove who has the biggest dick 'cause ah'm tred of their snippin' at each other. Fuckin' annoying."
06[02:41] * +Slag_Heap nods at Sour_Grape. "I'm getting pretty sick of it too." He looks at Sagittis. "I think before we start, we should have a little talk about why we're doing this constant shit."
06[02:41] * +Sour_Grape "If ya don't like, here's a crazy thought, don't fucking do it."
06[02:41] * +Roy_Calbeck ignores the back-and-forth. "NPL's taken a town called Gulch, MAC took another called Shattered Palms. Palms is near a place called Mercy, which is apparently full of arms-knowledgeable ponies."
[02:42] <+Roy_Calbeck> "Word is, if Mercy falls to either group, they'll have a major advantage --- an' will prolly take over th' entire Mareizona territory."
06[02:42] * +Sour_Grape "If its fulla ponies with guns, hows it gunna be took over?"
06[02:43] * +Sagittis cocks an eyebrow at Slag_Heap. "Oh, right, because I was a soldier for a slaving empire worse than the Legon. Got ya. So much of my life makes sense now." He turns to Roy_Calbeck. "Which one is closer to Flats or Dune?"
06[02:44] * +Roy_Calbeck continues. "All of this is of course on top of our own issues with the refugees. Glassy Flats can't maintain a population this large, 'cause they don't have enough greenhouses for crops and the land around here is crap for farming. They use air conditioning to keep the crops cool. So unless we can come up with a better food supply, the refugees have to go --- all of them."
06[02:44] * +Slag_Heap raises an eyebrow. "Were... were we having the same conversation?" He rolls his eyes and shakes his head, then pays attention to Roy_Calbeck.
06[02:45] * +Roy_Calbeck looks to Sagittis. "I'm told we can get a decent map of Mareizona from Pumpkin Patch down th' street. None of us know th' area well enough otherwise."
06[02:45] * +Sour_Grape "Saaay, would this Mercy place have like, more air conditoners er somethink?"
06[02:46] * +Roy_Calbeck looks to Dust_Off. "That's pretty much the summary right now... we've got no other intel on what Mercy would have, or where we could find more A/C machines."
06[02:47] * +Dust_Off sigh, "We're ignoring the bickering for later, Slag."   She ponders the real problems, "That's a possibility, Grape.  We need to help hold Mercy or the problems in Glassy Flats won't matter.  We keep our eyes open for ways to help Glassy Flats, trade in food or water or a source to make more."
06[02:48] * +Sagittis nods slowly. "Well, we have a month of spare food, and the pegasi should have better tech, maybe even food stores. I would advise we do a little raiding on their supply lines. Keeps 'em weak and doesn't force us to commit to an assault or a last stand. Hell, even better. We hit one Legion supply train too and leave bits of gear or bodies. Get the two to fight each other."
06[02:48] * +Sour_Grape "Saggi they're already fightin' each other."
06[02:49] * +Dust_Off snickers, "Yes, Grape, but through them off fighting us."
[02:49] <+Dust_Off> *throw them
06[02:50] * +Roy_Calbeck nods. "We'll also need t'organize the refugees so they can maintain th' stores an' ration 'em out without us havin' to be here overwatching."
06[02:51] * +Sour_Grape "An is occures ta me, ain't the pegasi,like farmers? Maybe they can help grow food better than tha locals."
06[02:52] * +Roy_Calbeck nods again. "Yes, but the problem isn't a lack of farmers... it's a lack of arable land. It'd be better if they could create some rain, but that'd draw down MAC, an' even with th' rain they still wouldn't do well enough in th' crop department to make up the difference. Sagi had an idea that they could raise cactus fruit, but we don't know how far that'll go either."
06[02:52] * +Dust_Off nods sadly to Grape, "Cloud farmers, filly.  And they can't anymore without wings.   Nevermind it would brinG MAC right down on them."
06[02:53] * +Roy_Calbeck shakes his head. "That, too. Farmin' dirt's prolly a whole different thing from farmin' clouds."
06[02:53] * +Sagittis nods to Dust_Off. "They are both after the same target. If they think the other side is going on the offensive against them, they won't devote a force to attack Mercy. More time, the more they damage each other and drain their resources." He glances to Sour_Grape. "That would help them earn their keep, but still need land. Maybe set them up in the mall or something."
06[02:53] * +Sour_Grape stares at Dust_Off, "Pegasi are fuckin' weird...
06[02:54] * +Slag_Heap just listens with no input. He's the dumdum of the group after all
06[02:54] * +Dust_Off s
01[02:54] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 -10 Karma to.... Dust_Off?
06[02:54] * +Roy_Calbeck looks back to Dust_Off. "Before we go on campaign, though, we really need t'get a good map an' scout out th' land... *find* those caravan routes. We don't even know what towns, aside from one each, they hold, or what an' where they ship between."
06[02:55] * +Dust_Off metasighs.  She realistically nods, "We get the map and head for Mercy."
06[02:57] * +Sour_Grape nods, "After we gota thems refugees so they don't like eat all tha food we gottem."
06[02:57] * +Roy_Calbeck looks around the table. "I think we could maybe get a caravan of our own from Dune, with cheaper food and water, to hold the refugees for longer. I can put a thousand caps in for that, if it'll do th' trick."
06[02:58] * +Sagittis rubs his chin. "I can ask Sightseer nicely to take them back and forth. Sour has all my caps."
06[02:59] * +Roy_Calbeck checks his pouches. "Make that... around 1500 caps."
06[03:02] * +Dust_Off nods, "I'll throw in 500 caps.  "We get the refugees fed with a portion and restock the town with the other."
06[03:02] * +Roy_Calbeck grins. "Sounds about perfect.
06[03:02] * +Sour_Grape "So what're we doin' an how much is it gunna cost, ya'll lost me."
[03:04] <+Dust_Off> "We send Sightseer with a caravan to Dune.   They buy water and food.  We feed the town.   Roy and I are putting up personal funds."
06[03:04] * +Roy_Calbeck nods.
06[03:04] * +Sagittis shrugs to Sour_Grape. "Hire a caravan. They are paying two grand. I am asking sompony nicely."
06[03:05] * +Sour_Grape "Roight, well if ya need more'n that then ask."
[03:05] <+Roy_Calbeck> "While that's goin' on, we head fer Mercy with a map, start lookin' fer where we could find some MAC an' NPL supply routes t'raid.
06[03:06] * +Slag_Heap listens intently. He kinda wanted a cigar.
06[03:07] * +Sagittis ponders and looks over to Slag_Heap. "How well can you act and control your temper?"
06[03:08] * +Slag_Heap looks at Sagittis. "Depends. What are you thinking?"
06[03:08] * +Roy_Calbeck peers across between Sagi and Slag.
06[03:09] * +Dust_Off peers at Roy and then Sagi and Slag.
06[03:10] * +Sagittis smirks. "I think we need a mole. You used to be a slaver and I bet the Legion loves snapping up Red Eye troops. Already trained, equipped and eager to get back to work."
01[03:10] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Colt Hansen even peers towards Sagi and Slag.
06[03:11] * +Slag_Heap frowns. "Wasn't a slaver, but I see your point..." He rubs his chin and hums. "Yeah... yeah, I can see this happening." He nods at the kid. "I like the idea. Better not be an excuse to shoot at me though."
06[03:11] * +Dust_Off blinks, "What?   Send him into that hellhole?  Nevermind he's a  cyberpony."
06[03:12] * +Roy_Calbeck ahems. "I also still have that NPL armor, but it wouldn't likely fit Slag."
06[03:12] * +Slag_Heap looks at Roy_Calbeck. "They'd probably be recruiting me, not expecting me from somewheres else."
[03:12] <+Roy_Calbeck> "But it might do fer a different sorta distraction.  Like a fake checkpoint."
[03:13] <+Roy_Calbeck> "Or a guard returning from a patrol, allowing a surprise attack."
06[03:13] * +Dust_Off looks between everyone.  "Really?  Slag_Heap?  You want this plan?"
06[03:14] * +Sagittis nods to Dust_Off. "Exactly. There is proof he was with Red Eye. It is like wearing his credentials on his sleeves. HELLO. I AM A SLAVING, IMMORAL PSYCHOPATH, TRAINED IN YOUR LINE OF WORK. PLEASE HIRE ME." He ponders Roy_Calbeck for a moment. "You could go with him too... there is something about your coat and mane that seems to work in uniformed tyranny. I would buy it anyway. And you...
06[03:14] * +Sagittis ...already have the armor."
06[03:14] * +Slag_Heap looks at Dust_Off. "I said I liked it. If it helps the group, then sure. Any other ideas are good." He looks at his armour, then to Sagittis. "...these aren't my Red Eye fatigues..."
06[03:15] * +Sour_Grape "He's talkin' bout tha metal bits Slag."
06[03:15] * +Slag_Heap looks at his leg. "...ah."
06[03:16] * +Roy_Calbeck smirks at Sagittis. "But I have no stripes. Won't work."
06[03:16] * +Roy_Calbeck proffers the helm to Sagittis. "For a PROPER Legionnaire, in the classic style, we would need you."
06[03:17] * +Sagittis holds up his hoof. "New 'Pony' Legion, Roy. Pony."
06[03:17] * +Roy_Calbeck chuckles.
06[03:17] * +Dust_Off frowns and leans back.
06[03:17] * +Roy_Calbeck puts the helm away.
06[03:18] * +Sour_Grape "Raciscm. Racism everywhere."
01[03:19] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 There might be a portal opening somewhere that will temporarily suck a particular ghoul pegasus stallion to speak his signature catchphrase.
06[03:21] * +Roy_Calbeck turns his attention back to Dust_Off.
02[03:22] * +Sagittis ([email protected]) Quit (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)
06[03:29] * +Sour_Grape "So?"
06[03:33] * +Sour_Grape "To the map?"
06[03:34] * +Dust_Off crosses her legs, "I don't like the plan because there's little the rest of is can do while you are on mission, but if you think so, let's get to Mercy first."
03[03:34] * Sagittis ([email protected]) has joined #FalloutEquestriaPNP
01[03:34] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Tiny and the guards finish the interrogations with the two ponies that had nearly sexually assaulted Soybean and take them off to the stockades... or so the group is led to believe. The griffoness goes back to her business, with Soybean sighing and sitting by her lonesome off at a far off table.
07[03:34] * SilentBrony|GM sets mode: +v Sagittis
06[03:40] * +Sour_Grape "So... right, we need to get the map right? Lets go then."
06[03:40] * +Roy_Calbeck looks outside at the dark sky. "Soon as Pumpkin's place opens up."
06[03:42] * +Sour_Grape "It doesn't close."
06[03:42] * +Roy_Calbeck laughs. "That takes care of that, then."
06[03:44] * +Roy_Calbeck gets up. "Tell you what: Sour, you get the Mareizona map with Dusty from Pumpkin. Sagittis, you take our money to Sightseer so she can get goin'... she'd prolly rather move at night. Me an' Slag'll go organize th' refugees t'keep the food and water stores. By th' time we're all done, we should be meetin' back here an' then move out fer Mercy." He looks to Dust_Off. "That
06[03:44] * +Roy_Calbeck work, Captain?"
06[03:45] * +Sagittis nods and holds out his hoof for the caps.
03[03:46] * Lysanias ([email protected]) has joined #FalloutEquestriaPNP
06[03:47] * +Roy_Calbeck floats out a pile of 108 Pre-War Bits and the difference of 1500 in bottlecaps. It's a helluva haul on that table.
06[03:48] * +Dust_Off nods and hoofs over five hundred caps to Sagittis with a stern look.  "Alright, let's break and get things done."
[03:48] <+Roy_Calbeck> 420 caps and 108 Bits.
06[03:49] * +Sagittis scoops up the caps and trots to Downtroden's place, as Sightseer wasn't home last he checked.
06[03:50] * +Roy_Calbeck goes into a montaaaage! Montage! Teaching the locals to organize, so they keep their food stocks tight, you know that's wise! It takes a montage! Slag is there, keeping trouble in line, and when somepony jumps, they ask how high? It takes a montage!
06[03:50] * +Sour_Grape buys a map
06[03:51] * +Slag_Heap montages, but not of the organising, but more of his moustach at tons of awesome, glorious angles.
01[03:52] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Sagittis makes his way to Downtrodden's home, as Sour_Grape, and Dust_Off proceed to Pumpkin Patch's place to buy a map of the Mareizona. Lucky for them they manage to do so at the price of... one mee-llion caps! No just kidding, it's only 50. Slag_Heap and Roy_Calbeck... do stuff... montage style... with refugees. At Downtroddens door, we presume that the flufflecolt knocks on it, to which the town leader informs him that if she's not at home... ot at Daffodil's place... then she's probably out guiding others through the Blasted Sands.
06[03:53] * +Dust_Off goes with Sour to buy a map.  She hopes pumpkin isn't too afraid of them.
06[03:54] * +Sagittis presents the idea and caps to Downtrodden for when his daughter gets back.
01[03:56] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 With another... very strong game plan in the works for the future of the Mareizona, we draw another close for our Mareizona Irregulars. Will their plan to establish a reliable caravan relief route to Glassy Flats pay off? Will they be able to defend Mercy from either a M.A.C. or N.P.L. assault? Find out the answers to these questions on the next session of Star Group, Fallout Equestria!
