  1. [17:12] <+DontAskForCookies> when last we left our characters Gizmo was just about to leave Girders home as the rest of the party returned from the doctors office with the still weak Trefoil.
  2. [17:12] <+DontAskForCookies> Session 6 starts now
  3. [17:13] * +Gizmo notices the others right before he leaves. 'eh, sitcking around to hear that story will be better than shopping right now' He thinks to himself and stops
  4. [17:14] <+Garador> "So. What'd we miss?"
  5. [17:14] * +Garador is still Trefoil's taxi.
  6. [17:14] * +Trefoil rides the GTA back to the garage and elects to stay on it afterwords.
  7. [17:15] <+Trefoil> "Not a lot it looks like."
  8. [17:15] * @Violet walks alongside Puzzler
  9. [17:16] <+Gizmo> "Not really, but we might be able to fin out what happened to Stable 23 If we talk to Girder"
  10. [17:16] * +Puzzler trotts alongside Violet, he has a wierd smile on his face. In deep thoughts.
  11. [17:16] * +Hospice tapped her hooves somewhat impatiently. "Yes...we haven't made great progress on that..."
  12. [17:17] <+Garador> "Girder?"
  13. [17:17] * Ashen|Sleep ([email protected]) has joined #FalloutEquestriaPNP2
  14. [17:18] * Ashen|Sleep is now known as Aurilmar
  15. [17:18] * Ashen_Ward ([email protected]) Quit (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)
  16. [17:18] <+Trefoil> "Old maintenance pony, and apparently a survivor. Where'd he get offto anyway?"
  17. [17:18] * Aurilmar is now known as Athilmar
  18. [17:18] * +Puzzler "Ah.. Girder, wasn't he f-from Stable 22?" He mumbles.
  19. [17:18] <+Gizmo> "He's still inside"
  20. [17:18] <+Gizmo> "Yes Puzzler, he was."
  21. [17:18] * Athilmar is now known as Ashen_Ward
  22. [17:19] <+Trefoil> "Mhmm, you worked for him, remember? Or with. Fuckin' maintenance."
  23. [17:19] <+Hospice> "...and now that we know Trefoil isn't dying horribly from an easily preventable disease, we should probably track him down..."
  24. [17:19] * @Violet nodnods "Don't remember much from when the original party left. I was too busy with school and 'learning to uphold the family traditions'. Meh. It's good to know they're still alive and kicking...well...relatively..."
  25. [17:20] <+Steel_Innocence> "Main-thingy-thing is nice, but it's so complicated. They have a lot of lighty things."
  26. [17:20] * +Gizmo facehoofs at Hospice. "He's just right inside. Come on."
  27. [17:20] * +Gizmo leads them to Girder
  28. [17:20] * +Trefoil waits for Garador to follow.
  29. [17:20] * +Garador tags along.
  30. [17:20] * +Hospice gave an funny look. "Oh. Well. That makes things easier. Yes. Yes it does."
  31. [17:21] * +Puzzler nods.. "Find out what happened to 23, then back home.." He trails off as he finishes the sentence. Still walking alongside Violet.
  32. [17:21] * @Violet is tagging along as well because why not?
  33. [17:22] * +Steel_Innocence follows inside. "And to find Steady!"
  34. [17:22] <+DontAskForCookies> Girder is inside stationed at one of the several work benches looking over some notes as the group enters. Looking up the older pony seems at first surprised to see them back so soon and at the same time happy. Turning the chair around with the use of the small joystick on the arm of the wheelchair he makes his way towards them.
  35. [17:23] <+DontAskForCookies> "Back so soon? I take it the doc patched her right up, am I right?"
  36. [17:23] <@Violet> "Gave her a shot of something" Vi shrugs
  37. [17:23] <+Garador> "Seems so, yeah." The older griffin nods, standing off to the side.
  38. [17:24] <+Trefoil> "Or assasinated me, suppose we'll find out."
  39. [17:25] * +Gizmo smiles. "Well, We're ll here now. Why don't you tell us what happened?"
  40. [17:25] <+DontAskForCookies> Girder chuckles, takeing Trefoils comment as a joke. "Well Grace may overcharge you but she isnt the kind to kill off potential return customers"
  41. [17:25] <+Steel_Innocence> "You still look like a pony, Trefoil."
  42. [17:26] * @Violet blinks and cocks an eyebrow at Steel, mouthing 'wat?'
  43. [17:26] * +Trefoil watches things over her carriage's shoulders, "So far Steel, so far."
  44. [17:27] * +Steel_Innocence looks at Violet, puzzled. "What what?"
  45. [17:27] <+DontAskForCookies> Girders smile flickers for a moment at Gizmos comment.
  46. [17:27] <+DontAskForCookies> "Oh yes, that"
  47. [17:28] <@Violet> "What what?"
  48. [17:28] * +Puzzler Looks up at Steel, confused. "So.. Ah.. W-what happened at 23? T-there is nothing l-left" he stutters. Looking down at his hooves.
  49. [17:28] <+DontAskForCookies> "Well suprisingly its not that long of a story, not one I particularly like telling if I can avoid it but you deserve to know", Girder looks to Violet, "What happened to 23 naturally, I assumed that what you wanted to know? Your two freinds did"
  50. [17:29] * +Gizmo nods. "Yes please."
  51. [17:29] * @Violet nods "I would like to hear what happened."
  52. [18:29:46] <+Steel_Innocence> "They did what?" She blinks
  53. [18:30:26] <@Violet> "They wanted to know, and I'm not certain they are our friends. I'm not sure what they are to us."
  54. [18:31:30] <+DontAskForCookies> Girder pulls his chair back a bit and strokes his chin, "well... You know the first part, how we left 22 to help out 23. well we got there and sure enough the place was a wreck, the whole top portion caved in and cracks running along the entrace"
  55. [18:31:52] Violet sits down and listens
  56. [18:32:10] Gizmo sits down and listens to Girder as well
  57. [18:32:20] <+Steel_Innocence> "What friends? Steady?" She looks from Violet to Girder, confused.
  58. [18:32:25] Hospice almost said something snarky, but shut her mouth.
  59. [18:32:30] Puzzler sits down next to Violet. Preening his wing as he listens.
  60. [18:32:43] <@Violet> "The two mares that we left behind, Steel. The ones who refused to come with us."
  61. [18:32:45] <+DontAskForCookies> The older pony looks confused at the comments, "Is that so? well alright then... Anyway we started patching it up with the help of the ponies in 23, and no dear the two ponies who go here before you from 22"
  62. [18:33:00] Trefoil listens as well, electing not to make any comments.
  63. [18:35:03] <+DontAskForCookies> "After a few weeks secerity says we have to check in with 22, so me and half of the crew load up and head out to a com tower we had found before. On the way we spotted this place, clover. We wanted to check it out but security said we couldnt hold up the overmare, so we compromised and sent two of our own to check it out while we moved on"
  64. [18:36:11] <+Trefoil> "Stable 22 ponies or Maintenance?"
  65. [18:36:42] <+DontAskForCookies> "One security guard and one Maintenance", Girder answers
  66. [18:38:38] <+DontAskForCookies> "So we make it to the tower, send our message, and after we fix the place up a bit we leave. On the way back we stop at clover to pick our guys up... and thats when we got a little side tracked. See the mayor threw us one hell of a party, was trying to talk us into trading our pip-bucks and one of the two APC's we had with us"
  67. [18:39:44] <+DontAskForCookies> "We decline but end up staying a few days ayway... by the time we left, well we could see the smoke by the time we were half way back".
  68. [18:40:06] Violet frowns
  69. [18:41:43] Steel_Innocence blinks.
  70. [18:42:07] Trefoil nods, "And then?"
  71. [18:42:29] <+DontAskForCookies> Girder frowns as well, "Apparently word has spread rather fast about 23 being open and... well A large group, hell practically an army or ponies made up some of the worst kind you can find up here attacked while we were gone. Slaver, raiders, mercs, you name it they were there. By the time we showed up they were already stripping the place and loading the last cart of ponies to be hauld away"
  72. [18:42:58] Puzzler stops preening and gawks..
  73. [18:43:11] <@Violet> "How many of the original party are left?
  74. [18:43:13] <@Violet> *"
  75. [18:43:40] <@Violet> "That you know of."
  76. [18:43:44] <+DontAskForCookies> Girder looks up from his thoughts, staring at Violet, "Of the original team from 22?"
  77. [18:43:51] Garador listens to all of this with a blank expression.
  78. [18:43:51] Violet nods
  79. [18:44:08] Hospice nodded in understanding as if Stable 23's fate was the most natural thing in the world.
  80. [18:44:10] Steel_Innocence eyes widen. "Where did the 23 ponies go?"
  81. [18:44:18] Gizmo looks to Girder. "Also, which direction did they head from the Stable?"
  82. [18:46:35] Trefoil snuggles back into feathers.
  83. [18:46:55] <+DontAskForCookies> Girder shrugs, "Not sure, it was only half of us that were gone. I kept track of a few of them after what happened next, but most of the team is... well missing, I couldnt say were they are. As for what happened to the ponies from 23, most of them were taken south by the slavers to the Annawan Campgrounds, but the raiders took a few for themseves, the maintinace ponies mostly"
  84. [18:47:49] Gizmo looks to Steel "Was Steady in Maintenance?"
  85. [18:47:55] Violet scowls "I will rip them asunder with my bare hooves."
  86. [18:49:25] Trefoil keeps her eyes closed and may have gone back to sleep.
  87. [18:49:26] Steel_Innocence shakes her head. "He was a doctor pony." She turns to Violet, looking worried.
  88. [18:49:34] Puzzler winces at Violets outburst, glancing at her. "W-we are going out to g-get them.. Aren't we..?" He stutters.
  89. [18:49:47] <+DontAskForCookies> Girder nods, "Thats how most of us felt as we saw that last cart... and that is when we started to split apart. Almost none of us felt combat capable, but the lead security guard blew enough smoke at us to get us pumped up and mad enough to attempt a rescue"
  90. [18:49:47] Hospice frowned. "More importantly, we're going to get the parts Stable 22 needs. Yes?"
  91. [18:50:14] Garador eyes Violet. "You plan to take on slavers and raiders with just the six of us? And mine you, not all of us are armed."
  92. [18:50:50] Gizmo looks to Violet. "Calm. We have to have a plan and supplies first. He looks to Girder. "So you attempted a rescue?"
  93. [18:51:24] Violet scoffs "Of course we should wait. We know barely anything about the surface as it is now, our armaments are not up to par, and our combat experiences is next to none. I do not want to wait long, however."
  94. [18:52:10] <+DontAskForCookies> Girder nods, a distant look in his eyes as he looks at his legs. "You should listen to the griffon, playing the hero can be a costly role. But yes, we waited for the cart to get far enough from the stable, then we attacked. we had... mixed results"
  95. [18:52:51] Puzzler was afraid of that. He leaves his gaze on the floor. Taking a few deep breaths.
  96. [18:53:00] <+DontAskForCookies> "we took the cart back, but at the cost of five of our own, my legs, and three of the ponies we were trying to save"
  97. [18:53:35] <+Gizmo> "Were these Stable 23 ponies?"
  98. [18:53:59] Hospice frowned. "...probably not worth it."
  99. [18:54:27] <+DontAskForCookies> Girder shrugs, "After that we spit up, me and a few others when back to Clover with the enjered, the rest whent south in the other APC... I think they had more heroics in mind but I never got word of anything"
  100. [18:54:31] Steel_Innocence looks at Girder with a mix of horror and compassion in her face.
  101. [18:54:48] <+DontAskForCookies> "yes, 23 ponies... about twenty of them"
  102. [18:54:49] Hospice frowned again. "...more heroics? So you're saying they're probably dead."
  103. [18:55:57] <+DontAskForCookies> Girer looks downcast, "Maybe, well not all of them at least, I know for A fact that I have seen one of them since... but it wasnt the happy sort of reunion. He caled me a coward and stormed off before I could ask him any questions"
  104. [18:56:33] <+Steel_Innocence> "You are a nice pony. Don't be sad."
  105. [18:56:33] <+Gizmo> "How are you a coward?"
  106. [18:56:51] <+Gizmo> "You're physically incapable of helping them no offense. He over reacted."
  107. [18:56:59] <+Garador> "Tough to see a disabled pony as a coward."
  108. [18:57:11] Hospice tried to comfort Girder in the most callous way possible. "Eh. Forget about him. Someone trying to exhort you into basically committing suicide with him isn't worth your time."
  109. [18:57:50] <+DontAskForCookies> Girder puts on a false smile for steel, "Oh, I know he didnt really mean it. But Emotions tend to run high in the wasteland, he had probably just seen to much and needed to take it out on somepony"
  110. [18:59:17] Steel_Innocence nods. "The bad things are so big... you are a very nice pony."
  111. [18:59:36] Trefoil dozes or something
  112. [18:59:47] Puzzler can't help but smile at Steels comment.
  113. [19:00:00] <+Trefoil> Awake or asleep, she isn't exactly contributing to the conversation.
  114. [19:00:42] Hospice tapped her hoof. "Anyways, even if Princess Luna herself rescued Stable 23, does that mean we even get the power back on? Considering how stripped bare Stable 23 has been..."
  115. [19:01:20] <+Gizmo> "We did get the power back Hospice. Puzzler and Violet made sure of that"
  116. [19:01:22] <+DontAskForCookies> "Thanks...Anyway so me and four other stable 22 ponies show up here at clover with two of the 23 ponies with us. We send out a team after another week of rest to go and send a message back to 22, but they never came back. After another two weeks of no word we make the deal, sell our APC to the town for a place to call our own. But over the years my freinds have all left, now im the only one who remains here... but I a
  117. [19:01:36] Puzzler perk up as if he remmebered something. He digs through his saddlebags. "I.. I installed one of these." He says, showing a cartrige to the others.
  118. [19:02:12] Puzzler "B-but nothing happened.." He slumps slightly.
  119. [19:02:27] <+DontAskForCookies> but I allways welcome other stable dwellers"
  120. [19:02:45] <+Trefoil> "Hey, Girder."
  121. [19:02:46] Steel_Innocence smiles at Girder.
  122. [19:02:47] <+Gizmo> "But something still bugging me though, why was that random soda machine there?" Gizmo wonders out loud
  123. [19:03:08] <+DontAskForCookies> Girder snorts, a perterved look on his face. "Course nothing happened, not after those reavers got done with the place...soda machine?"
  124. [19:03:26] <+DontAskForCookies> Girder turns to fix Gizmo with a puzzled look
  125. [19:03:37] Puzzler nods.. "Just a soda machine." He mumbles
  126. [19:03:44] <+Gizmo> "
  127. [19:04:26] <+Gizmo> "Yeah it looked like it was made from other soda machines, as well it was powered"
  128. [19:04:33] <+Steel_Innocence> "A nice tasty soda box"
  129. [19:05:15] Trefoil raises her voice, "Hey. Girder!"
  130. [19:06:04] <+DontAskForCookies> Girder strokes his chin once again, "Cant really say I know much about that. Never been back inside once they looted the place, but from what I heard it was complete striped by the reavers-", Girder turns to look at Trefoil, "Yes dear?"
  131. [19:07:07] <+Trefoil> "You know my dad, right?"
  132. [19:07:56] <+DontAskForCookies> Girder tilts his head, scrutinizing Trefoils face as if looking for a family resemablance. "And who may your father have been?"
  133. [19:08:11] Steel_Innocence rummages through her saddlebags.
  134. [19:09:58] Violet slumps down, stewing in her own irritation from knowing what happened, but unable to do anything about it.
  135. [19:10:07] <@Violet> (But being unable to*)
  136. [19:10:30] <+Trefoil> "Red Brick, electrician."
  137. [19:14:15] Puzzler realises he still has the cartrige in his hooves. He akwardly places it back in his bags. Noticing that Violet is distressed he places a hoof on her back, trying to comfort, whispering something.
  138. [19:14:16] <+DontAskForCookies> A spark of recongnition shows in the older ponies face, "Oh yes, Red. I can see it now! Very nice guy, has a place in Plesent Hills now I think. He is one of the few I keep in touch with"
  139. [19:14:51] Steel_Innocence smiles to Trefoil, then pulls a figurine out of the saddlebags. A long-legged light blue earth pony with a yellow mane. "And this pony? Well, not this, but a big one just like it, called Steady."
  140. [19:16:15] <+Trefoil> "Oh. Lovely."
  141. [19:16:27] Trefoil mumbles to Garador
  142. [19:16:29] <+DontAskForCookies> "Got A letter from him a few months ago... not sure what I did with it". Girdir turns his attention back to Steel as she pulls out the figure, "Wait... he looks kind of familure, its been a long time but I think I remember him. Oh yes he wanted to go with us back to 22 when we left to send the singal"
  143. [19:17:06] Garador nods and lets her down.
  144. [19:17:34] Violet smiles at Puzzler
  145. [19:17:34] <+DontAskForCookies> Stokes his chin as he thinks back, his eyes drifting to the sealing, "As a matter of fact... I seem to remmember the name as well, back from that cart we rescued"
  146. [19:18:25] <+Gizmo> "wait. from the cart?"
  147. [19:18:28] Doubleclick [[email protected]] has left the channel.
  148. [19:19:07] <+DontAskForCookies> "The cart of stable 23 ponies we saved, the attack that cost me my legs. Were you not listening?"
  149. [19:19:55] Steel_Innocence stretches closer to Girder. "Is he okay? Is he okay? Where is he?"
  150. [19:19:57] <+Gizmo> "No i was." He looks to Girder. "Is he okay?"
  151. [19:20:27] <+DontAskForCookies> "I destinctly remember hearing that name after the attack, I seem to remember somepony that looked like this as well but its hard to remember as I was going into shock...WAIT! thats it, he was the pony who stoped the bleeding and saved my life!"
  152. [19:21:34] Steel_Innocence nod-nods, smiling a little. "He is a very nice pony doctor too. Where is he?"
  153. [19:21:44] Gizmo simles to Steel. "See he's fine." He looks to Girder. "Right?"
  154. [19:22:33] Trefoil wobbles around a little, looking for the APC
  155. [19:22:46] <+DontAskForCookies> Girder smiles at Steel, "He sure is, at least from what I remember anyway. We didnt really have time to talk before the other ponies carted me off to Clover... He, well your freind whent with the others south"
  156. [19:23:03] Garador arcs an eyebrow at Trefoil.
  157. [19:23:56] Gizmo got up. "Well then, it seems most of us have ideas on where to go now. I say we get supplies and then decide where to go."
  158. [19:24:40] Trefoil asks no one in particular, "S'there a bar around here?"
  159. [19:25:07] <+Garador> "Drunk and sick makes for a bad combination."
  160. [19:25:08] Steel_Innocence hugs Girder, with a wide smile on her face. "Thank you."
  161. [19:25:15] <+DontAskForCookies> Girder hold up a hoof, "Wait, you may want to listen for a bit longer becouse the story isnt quite over yet... and yes, Strawberries place, not far from here. Ill probably head out there after we are done myself for a drink"
  162. [19:25:19] Violet scowls in Trefoil's direction, but doesn't say anything. If she wants to kill herslef with alcohol then let her.
  163. [19:25:37] <+DontAskForCookies> Girder smiles, "Your welcome young miss"
  164. [19:25:51] Violet also realizes that with what she knows of the effects of alcohol, she could use a drink herself :I
  165. [19:26:24] <+Gizmo> "It's not? What else you got?"
  166. [19:26:28] Steel_Innocence steps back, keeping all attention she can on Girder.
  167. [19:26:35] Puzzler drops his hoof from Violets back. Sighs. "M-more h-horrible things most likely.."
  168. [19:28:10] Trefoil mutters, "Think I'll just head over then."
  169. [19:28:16] <+DontAskForCookies> "This part is important, becouse this is stuff that can save you out in the wasteland. See the group that attacked 23, they all made out like bandits. The slavers got more ponies than they knew what to do with but the rest, well after everthing was said and done they got more power than they knew what to do with"
  170. [19:28:16] Steel_Innocence walks to Puzzler and puts a hoof on his shoulders. "But there are nice things too. Don't be sad."
  171. [19:28:51] Garador shakes his head and ignores Trefoil, focusing on Girder again.
  172. [19:29:05] <+DontAskForCookies> "Started calling themselves the reavers, backward minded barbarians with a sweet tooth for old world tech is what they are. Still out there, patrolling the roads in the APC's they took from 23"
  173. [19:29:30] <+Trefoil> "Lovely. Remind m'ta buy some tar and socks."
  174. [19:29:41] Puzzler looks at Steel, smiling slightly. Before listening to the rest of the story.
  175. [19:29:52] <+Gizmo> "So easy to spot them
  176. [19:29:54] <+Steel_Innocence> "Eww, techy things taste bad. These mean ponies are weird."
  177. [19:30:16] <+DontAskForCookies> "Probably would have taken over ever setelment in the area if it wasnt for a small war with the steel rangers, they are pretty tame now a days but all they really need is a second wind to put them back on the war path"
  178. [19:31:22] <+DontAskForCookies> Girder pats Steel on the shoulder, "Very werid, and easy to spot but not easy to get away from. I would steer as far away from them as you can. They will especially be interested in you if they see your APC"
  179. [19:31:52] Trefoil stops mid wobble to the door, "So wait, yer tellin' me the Steel Rangers are still around.... so that means.... the government still exists?"
  180. [19:31:58] <+Trefoil> "Or at least the Army?"
  181. [19:32:24] Gizmo glances at Trefoil. "Does it really seem theres an army in this place?""
  182. [19:32:46] <+Hospice> "Well, government, probably. We met the mayor didn't we? Army...probably not..."
  183. [19:32:48] <+Steel_Innocence> "They can't take the car. I didn't do the thing for little Giddy yet!" She frowns.
  184. [19:34:06] <+Trefoil> "Shut up Gizmo. Steel fucking Rangers, the Army's best. It sure /sounds/ like there's an army around."
  185. [19:34:14] <+DontAskForCookies> Girder shakes his head, "No, sorry. Probably should have explained them as well. See whats left of the Steel rangers is still around, they scavenge and store old world tech. They are not what you read about in books, they will steal your pip-buck right out from under you if they wanted it enough, and thats just the best case cenario, I have heard stories of whole settelments going dark after the steel rangers showed u
  186. [19:34:29] Garador scowls. "Steel Rangers aren't fucking government and they aren't ponies anyone should turn to."
  187. [19:34:55] Gizmo sneers at Trefoil. "Yeah Tre, sounds like an awesome army." He says sarcastically
  188. [19:35:37] <+Hospice> "Technology fetishist raiders? I swear, you could describe almost every group of ponies with an adjective and the word raiders. Well, except us. Maybe."
  189. [19:35:41] <+DontAskForCookies> Girder chuckles, "they dont have that impressive of numbers, but they have all the best toys"
  190. [19:36:09] Garador mutters something to himself.
  191. [19:36:21] Puzzler 's ears drop as Girdir finishes the story. "G-great, more stuff that can k-kill us." He sighs again, standing up. Getting ready to leave.
  192. [19:36:27] <+DontAskForCookies> "They showed up a few months after 23 opened, they wanted to scavange it themselves and didnt like that the reavers beat them to it"
  193. [19:36:55] Violet lays down...and her stomach growls "...Does that bar have food?...oh wait I don't have any money..."
  194. [19:36:56] <+DontAskForCookies> Girder calls out to puzzler, "Wait kid, where you rushing off to?"
  195. [19:38:21] Trefoil would make a rude geture at Gizmo, but can't think of anything inspired at the moment. Instead she just hobbles over to the APC.
  196. [19:38:39] Puzzler "Back to the APC" he says as she starts heading towards the door.
  197. [19:39:32] Gizmo looks to Violet. "Well then, i guess we need to trade to get food amd supplies." He looks to Girder. "Well, we'll be back tonight, but we really need to get supplies."
  198. [19:40:40] <+DontAskForCookies> Girdir nods, "I suspected as much. Your welcome to take a look at my map of clover if you want. Oh and yes the bar has food but the best food in town is at AJ's diner"
  199. [19:40:41] Steel_Innocence stays. "These Steel ponies don't sound like nice Steel ponies. I'm a Steel pony too, but I think am nice... am I?"
  200. [19:41:12] Gizmo nods to Steel. "Yeah you are Steel, not like those Ranger ponies"
  201. [19:41:15] <@Violet> "You're nice, Steel."
  202. [19:41:17] <+DontAskForCookies> Girder smiles at Steels comment, once again patter her on her sholder. "The nicest I have seen in a long while Steel"
  203. [19:41:30] Steel_Innocence opens a wide smile.
  204. [19:41:36] Violet stands up "AJ's Diner, huh?"
  205. [19:42:22] Trefoil uses the APC as a changing station to strip out of her battered Security barding.
  206. [19:42:23] Gizmo starts to head out the door. "I'd like that map if you can give it."
  207. [19:42:34] <+DontAskForCookies> Girder nods, "Best meal youll find for miles"
  208. [19:42:42] Puzzler wingshrugs and heads out the door. Waiting outside. He had enought of hearing about things that could potentially kill him. Sitting down just outside the door.
  209. [19:43:00] <+DontAskForCookies> Girder points to an adjacent wall where hangs a hoof drawn map, "Help yourself kid"
  210. [19:43:27] Garador takes a look at the map himself.
  211. [19:43:54] Violet wonders if she should leave her armor on or...um...try the dress she found on...
  212. [19:43:55] Gizmo looks at the map too. He tries to remember where the nearest shops are.
  213. [19:44:19] Violet nods to herself and trots off the the APC
  214. [19:44:42] Steel_Innocence takes a look at the nice drawing. It doesn't look like a thing, but it is nice.
  215. [19:45:52] Trefoil snuggles on top of it.
  216. [19:45:56] Gizmo looks to the others. "Guys wait! We need to split up our money!"
  217. [19:45:58] <+Trefoil> It being her removed armor.
  218. [19:46:08] <+DontAskForCookies> Girder manuvers his wheel chair over to the map as well, "Well Im going to head over to Straberries for a drink, Ill be back here later tonight. You can all stay here as long as you like"
  219. [19:46:50] Violet sneaks past Trefoil, takes her coat and armor off, then pulls the dress she'd found out of her bags and slips it on looking herself over
  220. [19:46:54] <+Hospice> "....we have money?"
  221. [19:47:10] Gizmo nods. "Yeah those Bottlecaps."
  222. [19:48:10] Puzzler sighs and trotts over to the APC aswell.
  223. [19:48:26] Steel_Innocence follows Violet to the APC. "Violet! I want to use the car to do a thing for the little Giddy, because she likes cars a lot and we could let her go in the car and I pedal a little and you make it go to a side and another side and she would be really happy and it would be nice. Can I do that?"
  224. [19:48:46] Puzzler [[email protected]] has quit (Connection closed).
  225. [19:49:15] Violet smiles and places her dismantled security barding into the drivers seat then looks up at Steel_Innocence "I think I'd like that, yes. Maybe tomorrow morning?"
  226. [19:49:30] <+Hospice> "Wait, they use bottlecaps as currency? Hm. That actually makes sense. Pretty fungible. WAIT, DID WE THROW AWAY MONEY?"
  227. [19:49:37] Puzzler [[email protected]] joined the channel.
  228. [19:49:49] Violet sets mode +v Puzzler
  229. [19:50:21] Steel_Innocence smiles and hugs Violet. "Yay! You are so nice, Violet."
  230. [19:50:22] Trefoil tries to take a nap with the usual noise of her companions being screened out by nice steel walls.
  231. [19:50:43] Violet smiles and hugs Steel back "No problem."
  232. [19:51:54] Steel_Innocence looks at herself, still in the stable barding. She takes it off, inside the APC, brushing her coat a little. She doesn't have a nice dress, but she has a warm coat and a nice hat, so she wears those.
  233. [19:52:37] Puzzler slows down as gets closer to the APC. He sits down outisde it, looking up at the cloud curtain. Figeting slightly.
  234. [19:52:45] Trefoil has a pretty bad case of helmet mane going on.
  235. [19:54:10] Garador finishes looking at the map and rejoins the others.
  236. [19:54:27] Steel_Innocence looks at Trefoil, then to the brushie on her hoof, then smiles to her.
  237. [19:55:04] Violet slips on her coat and trots out of the APC
  238. [19:55:21] Trefoil has built a nest out of her junk with a variety of grenades as her eggs.
  239. [19:55:24] <+DontAskForCookies> Girdir waves as other as they leave as he gathers his own things, drawing out a pouch of caps from a desk. "See you later tonight"
  240. [19:56:24] <+Steel_Innocence> "Bye-bye mr. Girder." She waves.
  241. [19:56:54] Violet mills around outside, unsure of what to do
  242. [19:57:58] <+Garador> "Hope you don't mind if I strike off on my own. Need ammo and food."
  243. [19:58:34] Violet shrugs "As do I but I don't really have the money for it so I guess I'll just make do with what I've got."
  244. [19:59:21] Garador nods and heads outside, snapping his wings open and taking off for the armory.
  245. [19:59:40] Steel_Innocence decides to have a walk around the town to see all the nice things of the new place.
  246. [20:01:11] Puzzler looks up at Garador, slumping down as he flies off.
  247. [20:01:47] <+DontAskForCookies> Its a short flight from Girdirs Garage to the location marked as the Armory, the building looks to be made out of brick and has two guard ponies stationed outside in leather armor, the building is right next to the large sherrifes office and the other location marked as "Brimstone"
  248. [20:02:51] Garador touches down and approaches the guardponies. "Hi. Sell weapons and ammo here?"
  249. [20:03:56] <+DontAskForCookies> Steel begins to trot down the street, heading north west. After only just turning the corner she smells something tastey
  250. [20:05:00] Steel_Innocence sniff-sniffs. "Ooh, it smells good." She follows the nice, tasty smell.
  251. [20:05:08] <+DontAskForCookies> Shortly after Garador and Steel have left Girdir exits his shop and spots Violet milling about. "Oh, I thought you would be out doing some shopping, or at least showing of your dress"
  252. [20:05:49] Violet shrugs "Don't have money so I'd rather not bother window shopping. don't have anything to trade, either."
  253. [20:06:15] <+DontAskForCookies> One of the Guard poines shakes his head, "Afraid not, this is the guards supply. Nothing for sale here, if you want weapons and ammo you should check out either the Melting Pot or Brimstone"
  254. [20:06:24] Trefoil finally settles in now that she's alone.
  255. [20:06:29] Steel_Innocence tries to figure out what is that smell as she follows.
  256. [20:07:00] Gizmo looks at the map and sees a place called Brimstone. "Promising, he muses to himself as he goes that way on the map in his head."
  257. [20:07:21] <+Gizmo> "Promising." he muses to himself as he goes that way on the map in his head.
  258. [20:07:27] <+DontAskForCookies> Steels nose leads her to a building with a nice sized porch with tables set out, Steel can see poines inside and out sitting at tables eating yummy looking food
  259. [20:08:03] <+Garador> "Alright. Thanks." Garador takes off, swinging for the nearby Brimstone.
  260. [20:08:19] <+DontAskForCookies> Girdir face hoofs, "Oh dear I should have thought of that, of course you dont have any caps. Well my dear if you are short I can lend you a few, belive it or not Im actually quite successful as a repair pony in this town"
  261. [20:08:51] Puzzler sighs and starts to head west. He woulnt be able to sleep now anyway.
  262. [20:09:05] Violet tilts her head "You would just give away money?"
  263. [20:09:36] Hospice stood around awkwarkly.
  264. [20:10:00] Hospice sighed, "Man...it would have been useful figuring out what they use as currency a lot earlier..."
  265. [20:10:35] <+DontAskForCookies> Gizmo turns the corner to the street Brimstone is on just as Garador lands outside of it. Brimstone is a smaller building made from scrap wood, a large sign over the door advertises the shops name in crimson red letters
  266. [20:10:49] <+Garador> "Hm. Fancy meeting you here."
  267. [20:11:09] Steel_Innocence approaches the ponies outside of the building. "Oh, hi. I'm Steel Innocence."
  268. [20:11:18] <+DontAskForCookies> Girder shrugs, "call it a loan if you like, or you could help my in my shop tommorow if you like. I have some diliveries around town to make, and as you can imagine its not easy for me"
  269. [20:11:35] Hospice randomly wandered in a direction.
  270. [20:12:55] Trefoil 'recovers' in the APC, finishing the last of her scotch.
  271. [20:13:06] Violet perks up "I'd be fine with that...I'm not very good with a wrench...I'm okay with a screwdriver but that's picking locks...I'd be happy to help you with your deliveries though."
  272. [20:14:27] <+DontAskForCookies> A pony in an appron outside the building smiles, "Welcome steel, would you like to be shown to a table?". the pony is blue and has the letters BJ on her apron
  273. [20:14:28] Gizmo smiles at Garador. "I wanted somthing better than a knife and this place sounded promisiing."
  274. [20:14:57] <+DontAskForCookies> Steel recognizes the heavy smell of citrus in the air
  275. [20:15:18] <+Garador> "Well, it sells weapons and ammo, that much I know," the older griffin huffs, opening the door and heading inside.
  276. [20:15:46] <+DontAskForCookies> Girdir smiles as he reaches into his pouch, "Its a deal then, youll make some delivers for me tommorow around town". Girdir hoofs over 25 caps to Violet
  277. [20:16:00] Trefoil eventually starts cramming her posessions under some of the seats.
  278. [20:16:17] Violet smiles and puts them into a pocket in her bags "Thank you, Mr. Girder."
  279. [20:16:30] Gizmo follows the giant chiken
  280. [20:17:26] Trefoil stumbles down the APC's ramp toting one nearly empty Scotch bottle in her TK.
  281. [20:17:26] <+DontAskForCookies> The inside of Brimstone is thankfully warmer than the cool outside, the entrance ara is small and a large steel barred barrior seperates the rest of the building that is clerly a work shop. the wals are lined with locked display cases with sweapons inside
  282. [20:18:00] Trefoil has wrapped her blanket/tarp abomination around herself.
  283. [20:18:28] Garador looks around for the shopkeeper.
  284. [20:18:38] Gizmo looks at the weapons in the shop before calling out. "Hello?"
  285. [20:18:52] Violet takes a look at the map and trots out, heading to AJ's Diner.
  286. [20:19:00] <+DontAskForCookies> Hosipce is turning a corner when she hears a voice call out to her, "Excuse me miss, you looking for a fix?"
  287. [20:19:29] Steel_Innocence sniffs again. "Mmm~ the tables look nice, but the food smells very tasty. It's like that juicy fruit thing."
  288. [20:19:42] Trefoil finds herself contemplating the large map of Clover, seeking what passed for amusement in this place. She spotted the bar right off, but that could wait. Pre-gaming was important. There were a few other 'interesting' locations marked on there; market, library, power plant, library, market.
  289. [20:19:44] <+DontAskForCookies> Violet find the building just down the street from the garage, steel is outside talking to a blue pony in an apron
  290. [20:20:28] Violet trots up to steel and the apron wearing pony
  291. [20:20:45] Trefoil decides why not try the market; that sounds nice and general.
  292. [20:21:21] <+DontAskForCookies> The blue pony in the apron nods, "those are our oranges your smelling, Clover is the only place you can find them. Would you like to sit and enjoy some of our food?"
  293. [20:22:08] <+DontAskForCookies> A single red stalion is sitting on the other side of the bars, hard at work at a bench with his back to the door. Sparks are flying from whatever it is he is working on. Beyond him Brimstone is empty
  294. [20:22:09] Steel_Innocence nod-nods.
  295. [20:22:58] Garador approaches the stallion, calling so he can hear him. "Hello there!"
  296. [20:23:06] Gizmo follows Garador
  297. [20:23:16] Hospice turned around, "H-hello? A fix?"
  298. [20:23:52] <+DontAskForCookies> As puzzler makes his way east he eventually sees the bank of the river, instantly he notices the high desity of guards watching the banks. Of more intrest is the large turning wheel set on a large dock.
  299. [20:24:37] Trefoil wanders down the street, almost wishing she could've used her Pip-Buck to copy the local map.
  300. [20:25:06] <+DontAskForCookies> From the alley way steps A Purple stalion dressed in somewhat dingy pre-war buisness ware, a smile on his face. "Yes, a fix. Your new in town and I, a local sales pony, was wondering if you would be interested in some of my wares"
  301. [20:25:49] Hospice smiled. Ah! A respectable pony! Hospice loved respectable ponies. Unfortunately, there was just one problem. "Ah, I would be glad to look. But unfortunately, I am....well...as you some could say...completely broke."
  302. [20:26:09] Puzzler looks over the riverbank for a few minutes. Before slowly making his way towards the large wheel. Intriqued, he needed a distraction.
  303. [20:26:13] <+DontAskForCookies> A wondering pony spots Trefoil and stops dead in her hoofs, "Are you alright? You look like you have been draged down the street by reavers..."
  304. [20:27:27] <+DontAskForCookies> The pony at the workbench turns off the machine he is working on and turns, lifting the welding mask from his face. "Hellow caps, you here to buy or just interupt me from my work?", he asks in a broken trotish accent
  305. [20:28:30] Gizmo smiles. "Trade and buy if you will."
  306. [20:28:42] Trefoil points the drinkin' end of her bottle at the surprise pony, "Nope, that w'yesterday, and it weren't town."
  307. [20:28:55] <+DontAskForCookies> Puzzler makes it down the bank to the start of the dock holding the giant wheel. At the base of the dock on the porch of small shack sits a elderly pony who calls out to him as he approches, "Whoa there sunny, might want to be a mite carful"
  308. [20:28:56] <+Garador> "The same."
  309. [20:30:29] <+DontAskForCookies> The red pony nods as he sets down his tools and takes of his leather welding apron before stepping to the bars. "Well what are you interested in, looking for anything in paticular? i have a rather healthy stock of arms and ammo but I do specialty jobs if your interested"
  310. [20:31:25] <+DontAskForCookies> The pony in the apron smiles, "Well please seet yourself And Ill be right out with the menue". With this she trots back inside
  311. [20:31:30] <+Garador> "You have any ten-mil, jacketed soft-point?"
  312. [20:31:41] <+Gizmo> "Magical energy weapons if you have them And Specialty jobs?" Gizmo asked curious
  313. [20:32:08] Puzzler freezes in his trott. He takes a few steps back, eyeing the old pony carefully. Before finaly mumbling.. "Sorry.." He starts to turn away again.
  314. [20:32:49] <+DontAskForCookies> The sales pony frowns at hospice, "Well thats a shame, I do so love makeing new contacts with potential buyers. Maybe you should look into finding gainful employment around town? Theres allways some pony looking for help with something or another"
  315. [20:33:33] Steel_Innocence looks around to find a nice place to sit. Maybe with some of the nice new ponies...
  316. [20:33:55] Violet fidgets and decides to follow Steel once she decides on a place to sit...
  317. [20:34:02] Trefoil tips her nonexistent hat at the passerby and continues on her way to market.
  318. [20:34:32] Hospice frowned back, "Sorry, but I have a feeling that I'm not going to end up staying here for very long. Plus, I have a very...specialized skill set."
  319. [20:35:24] <+DontAskForCookies> the red pony points first to Garador, "Plenty, allways try to keep 9 and 10 mm in stock", then points to Puzzler, "Afraid not, I dont sell energy weapons. You can check at the melting pot however, they usually have a good healty supply of random items. I think they could help you out. And yes, I am a gun smith, I do special jobs if the price is right"
  320. [20:36:00] <+Puzzler> Gizmo*
  321. [20:36:13] <+DontAskForCookies> The buisness pony lifts a brow, "Is that A fact?"
  322. [20:36:15] <+Garador> "How much for a case of twenty?" Garador asks.
  323. [20:36:30] Gizmo smiles. "I might be back, for that special job. But you said the Melting Pot might have some? Thanks." Gizmo trots out and heads towards the Melting Pot.
  324. [20:37:14] <+DontAskForCookies> Steel finds plent of open seats at a table outside that has only one mare sitting at it currently
  325. [20:37:55] Violet just trots off to find an empty table
  326. [20:37:56] Steel_Innocence approaches the mare at the table. "Hi, I'm Steel Innocence. Can I stay here?"
  327. [20:38:37] Trefoil thankfully doesn't seem to be followed by the stranger.
  328. [20:38:49] Hospice waved her hooves around, "Oh, well, a more polite way of admitting that well...I'm not that good at that many things." Hospice almost said that as if she cared.
  329. [20:39:00] <+DontAskForCookies> The mare at the table looks up from a book she is reading, "Humm? oh, well I suppose"
  330. [20:39:07] Gizmo approaches the entrance to The Melting Pot, taking a few steps into the store.
  331. [20:39:59] <+DontAskForCookies> Another stranger thankfully spots the empty bottle and points Trefoil in the direction of the bar, Straberries place
  332. [20:40:13] <+DontAskForCookies> The melting pot appears to be some sort of general store
  333. [20:40:36] <+DontAskForCookies> Inside the melting pot are two elderly ponies, one sweeping up and the other behind the counter
  334. [20:40:44] Puzzler stops himself, takes a deep breath and trotts up to the old pony. "S-sorry, but.. What is that?" He says, looking at the big wheel.
  335. [20:40:48] Trefoil nods and mumbles her awarness of the local watering hole's location, "Fuckov."
  336. [20:40:48] <+DontAskForCookies> All manner of items litter the shops shelves
  337. [20:41:31] Gizmo smiles at the two of them. "Hello, I'm looking for any sort of Magical Energy weapons you might have."
  338. [20:42:23] <+DontAskForCookies> The buisness pony tut-tuts, "well that sure is a shame, your going to need some sort of skill to make it in this world. Otherwise youll just end up wandering around from town to town doing odd jobs, like I used to before I came to clover"
  339. [20:42:35] Steel_Innocence smiles and seats by the table. She takes a look at the mare's book. "The food here smells really nice. It's the first time I eat on a nice place of the Outside."
  340. [20:43:29] Hospice chuckled a little, "Well, it's not so bad. I've got some medical training and plus, I already have something I'm doing. The pay is just...irregular."
  341. [20:43:40] <+DontAskForCookies> The mare looks Steel over, then spots the pip-buck. "Oh, so your from a stable then my dear? How interesting... how long have you been outside?"
  342. [20:44:35] <+DontAskForCookies> The mare behind the counter smiles, "Well you came to the right place youngster, we happen to have to magic pistols in stock at the moment and a hoof full of ammo for them as well"
  343. [20:45:18] Gizmo smiles. "Well can I see some of them?"
  344. [20:45:40] <+DontAskForCookies> The buisness ponys eyes open a bid wider at the mention of Hospices training, "Medical training you say? well I wish you had said something sooner, I think I may have some work for you if your interested in some trade"
  345. [20:46:16] Trefoil wanders into the market area.
  346. [20:46:43] Hospice 's eyebrow went up. "Trade huh? Well, I don't think I have much time for serious work, but what are you talking about?"
  347. [20:46:45] <+DontAskForCookies> The mare nods and looks to the other pony, "Honey where did we put those pistols?", the other pony stops sweeping and points to a display case next to the counter.
  348. [20:47:07] Violet is just sitting at an empty table fiddling with her pipbuck
  349. [20:47:15] Gizmo takes a look at the pistols by the counter, examining them
  350. [20:47:29] <+DontAskForCookies> THe pony on the dock looks out across the water to the wheel. "That youngster is the power station for the town"
  351. [20:49:06] Steel_Innocence moves her eyes around trying to fish the answer from her mind. She looks at her hooves a couple times. "A little. There was a day and another day and another day, but not many days."
  352. [20:49:12] Trefoil looks around a bit, still relatively sober. She only had half a fifth of Scotch after all.
  353. [20:50:21] Puzzler slowly starts to make his way towards the Power Station. Looking up at the building. "Can I.. Enter?" He asks the old pony, his voice steady for once.
  354. [20:50:50] <+DontAskForCookies> The red pony behind the bars at Brimstone nods, "10mm, In these parts it gos for about 2 caps a pop. I have nearly 70 in stock at the moment, how manny can I get you?
  355. [20:51:56] <+DontAskForCookies> The mare at the table nods, cearly a bit take back by steels speech. "I see, and... you have freinds with you I hope?"
  356. [20:52:50] <+DontAskForCookies> Trefoil finds herself in the middle of an oppen air market, the venders seem to be selling fresh (if not somewhat small and malnurished looking) goods
  357. [20:52:59] <+Garador> "And this is jacketed soft-point, right?"
  358. [20:53:12] <+Trefoil> "Aww shit, ish a /food/ market!"
  359. [20:53:49] <+DontAskForCookies> In the display case are two magic pistols, both of identical design. One however is very rusty, while the other is worn but passable. Next to them is a stack of spark cells
  360. [20:54:24] Gizmo looks back to the mare and smiles. "How much for them?"
  361. [20:54:36] <+Gizmo> (nevermind that post yet)
  362. [20:55:30] Steel_Innocence nod-nods. "There is Violet and Puzzler and Gizmo and Hospice and Trefoil and the beaky thing. They are nice, but sometimes they look a little mean. I think the bad things of the Outside are making them sad, but I try to make nice things too, so they are happy too."
  363. [20:55:38] <+DontAskForCookies> The old pony on the dock shrugs, "Your free to go check it out sunny for All I care, there are a few ponies down there watching the place so I know you wont try anything funny. Just mind you dont stick a hoof in teh river. ever since the inncident up north its more radioative than ever...not to mention the stuff living in it. But as long as you stay out of the water you should be fine"
  364. [20:57:01] <+DontAskForCookies> The mare at the table nods, putting reasuring hoof on Steels sholder. "Take my advice dear and never stray to far from them... also, have you seen our school? Miss bolts also has a night time class if your interested"
  365. [20:57:08] Gizmo looks back to the mare and smiles. "How much for them?"
  366. [20:57:29] <+DontAskForCookies> The red pony nods, "Thats right feathers, anything ells your interested in?"
  367. [20:58:07] Puzzler takes a few steps away from the river. Just to make sure. "Ah.. I-inncident?."
  368. [20:58:38] Trefoil groans and reels around; might be worth checking out the rest of town for someplace that might have something /mildly/ interesting before getting drunk.
  369. [20:59:08] Violet eats her meal slowly
  370. [20:59:32] <+Steel_Innocence> "I saw the miss Bolts. She looks like a very nice box thingy. I can go there too." Her stomach rumbles. "...later."
  371. [20:59:40] <+Garador> "I'll take twenty. Meantime... have any scrap metal?"
  372. [20:59:55] <+DontAskForCookies> The older pony nods, "Yup, way up north theirs a crashed air ship sticking out of the river. Used to make for good scavenging till the fule cells bew a year back. Now the rivers more paluted than ever before. Hell at night you can allmost see it glow"
  373. [21:00:00] <+Steel_Innocence> "Where do I get the tasty food?"
  374. [21:01:23] <+DontAskForCookies> The mare at the counter speaks up, "Well given that its not in the best shape, how dose 50caps sound?"
  375. [21:02:01] Puzzler gazes towards the north, trying to see anything glowy.. "I.. I guess that is a-another horrible way to die. Isn't it?" He says, carefully sitting down next to the old pony.
  376. [21:03:10] Gizmo looks down. "Sounds fine, i've only got about 7 caps, but i have stuff to trade." He pulls out his knife, the stew he had in the jars and the remains sparkle cola he has. "How much can i get for this?"
  377. [21:03:11] <+DontAskForCookies> THe mare starts to speek up just as the other nice pony in the appron shows up with a peice of paper, settiling it down in front of Steel. "Here you go dear, our menu. Just pick something out and Ill get it out to you as soon as I can"
  378. [21:03:46] <+DontAskForCookies> The red pony nods, "Got some but I mostly use it myself to melt down...Could part with some of it though, how much you need feathers?"
  379. [21:04:38] Steel_Innocence picks the paper thing and takes a look at it.
  380. [21:04:54] <+DontAskForCookies> The old pony nods, "Radiation is a bad way to go, your lucky to have one of those on your leg sunny", the old pony points at the pip buck
  381. [21:05:31] <+Garador> "Don't need the metal itself, but I want to you know if you can make stripper clips for them." He nods to the rifles on his back.
  382. [21:06:10] Trefoil wanders down past the diner and the schoolgrounds they passed earlier, turning the bend with only a little bit of a list. Standing at the intersection, she weighed her options.
  383. [21:06:53] Puzzler flaps his wings absentmindly. Looking down at the pipbuck. "Ah.. I guess so." He looks at the powerplant again. "D-do you think s-something like that could p-power a stable?"
  384. [21:10:06] <+DontAskForCookies> The old pony chuckles to himself, "Son it barely powers the hydroponics buildings with enough left over for the mares office and the sherrifs office"
  385. [21:10:45] Steel_Innocence turns to the apron pony. "I want the orange sch- uh- schubert? "
  386. [21:12:00] Puzzler sighs. "S-so much for t-that then.. A-anything y-you know off that c-could power o-one?" He asks.. Feeling suprisingly OK talking to this old pony.
  387. [21:12:27] <+DontAskForCookies> The buisness pony nods, "sure, a job. See I run as good of a buisness as I can providing drugs and aid to my fellow ponies but my facilites... well lets say they could be a bit more sanatary. I could really use somepony with medical training to take a look at my operation and see if there is room for improvment"
  388. [21:13:50] <+Trefoil> (HOSPICE CRUSADERS PUBLIC HEALTH PONIES YAAAAY)
  389. [21:14:40] <+DontAskForCookies> THe elderly mare looks over the supplies laid out before her, "Ok son well you have about 120 caps in sparkle soda, another 15 for the knife, and Ill give you 7caps for each jar of the food"
  390. [21:15:24] Gizmo nods. "I'll give you the Sparkle Cola if you give me the pistol and just a few clips of ammo?"
  391. [21:15:47] <+DontAskForCookies> The red pony strokes his chin, "Stripper Ammo eh? well It would take me a while to get around to doing it as Im already busy on some other custom jobs, but if you give me a few days to get caught up on my work I can make you some"
  392. [21:15:50] Trefoil decides to go check out the store with the lights and the stuff (Melting Pot).
  393. [21:16:41] <+Garador> "Not stripper ammo, stripper clips. Rails, you know. But whatever." He passes over 40 caps for the 10mm JSP.
  394. [21:16:59] <+DontAskForCookies> The mare nods, "Orange Sherbert it is then dear", she then turns to leave but is stoped by the other mare who says, "Blueberry put it on my tab will you?", the mare nods before leaving. Soon after she returns with a clover sandwich for Violet
  395. [21:17:40] Hospice nodded. That acutally...seemed pretty easy. "Oh. You run a hospital! I see. I could definitely help out with that!"
  396. [21:17:55] <+Steel_Innocence> "What is a tab?"
  397. [21:18:40] Violet /now/ eats her meal slowly, since apparently she didn't before.
  398. [21:18:43] <+DontAskForCookies> Inside the melting pot Trefoil spots Gizmo bartering with an elderly mare, " well that seems a bit much sun, we only have 11 spark cells, how about we trade the gun and the ammo for five of the sodas?"
  399. [21:19:30] Gizmo nods happily. "Sounds fine. Hey, you got anything special?" He asks smiling.
  400. [21:19:54] <+DontAskForCookies> The elderly pony on the dock strokes his chin, "well... maybe some sort of large power plant like the one in Buck-a-Vista... or maybe the engine on that crashed air ship if you could get it running agin. You just have to know wher to look for things son"
  401. [21:20:03] <+DontAskForCookies> The red pony hands over the ammo and take the caps
  402. [21:20:47] Trefoil quietly goes browsing the shelves of the mercantile.
  403. [21:20:56] Garador takes the ammo. "See you in a few days, alright? Just put me on the list."
  404. [21:21:02] <+DontAskForCookies> The elderly mare looks around, "well we have a bit of everthing son, what did you have in mind?"
  405. [21:21:26] <+DontAskForCookies> The red pony picks up a pencil and a pad of paper, "And for that I will need a name and the ammount you will be needing"
  406. [21:21:31] Gizmo shrugs. "Anything that seems odd or unique, like something you found or fixed up yourself."
  407. [21:22:06] <+DontAskForCookies> The mare smiles, "A tab is a ammount of money you owe somepony dear"
  408. [21:22:32] Puzzler ponders for a second. "H-hey, t-thanks mister.." He smiles. Standing up and slowly makes his way back to the APC. He had a lot to think about.
  409. [21:22:40] <+DontAskForCookies> Trefoil finds food, equipment, weapons, clothing, and even armor up on the shelves. the melting pot has a good mix of everything
  410. [21:23:15] <+Steel_Innocence> "Munny?" She tilts her head, puzzled.
  411. [21:23:16] <+Garador> "Just put the initials 'G.R.' down. How much for four of these?" He produces a long stripper clip, loaded with 10mm FMJ.
  412. [21:24:25] <+DontAskForCookies> The mare smiles as she pulls out a small coin purse and hoofs out a few caps. "Yes, Money my dear. See we trade these things, which are called caps, for just about everything up here on the outside. Your meal is going to cost a few, but since we are new freinds Im going to pay for it"
  413. [21:25:23] <+Steel_Innocence> "Oh, thanks! You are a nice pony, miss... uh"
  414. [21:26:03] <+DontAskForCookies> The buisness pony smiles, "Well why dont you follow me to my set up... its ist quite a hospital but its as good as A buck like me can do in a town like this. Hopefully with your help I can start puting out a higher quality product"
  415. [21:27:00] <+DontAskForCookies> The mare extends delicate hoof, "Palet my dear, my name is palet"
  416. [21:27:06] <+DontAskForCookies> "and you are"
  417. [21:27:25] Steel_Innocence shakes her hoof. "I'm Steel Innocence."
  418. [21:28:01] Trefoil [[email protected]] has left the channel.
  419. [21:28:13] Trefoil [[email protected]] joined the channel.
  420. [21:28:40] <+DontAskForCookies> "A pelasure to meet you miss steel, And my I welcome you personaly to Clover. Oh you must stop my my husbands shop some time, your hat is very nice but I dare say that I think we can do a bit better"
  421. [21:28:48] Garador is now known as GarAFKdor.
  422. [21:28:51] Puzzler quietly enters the APC in case anypony was inside, beore finding his seat. Taking his notebook, writing a few things down.
  423. [21:28:55] Violet sets mode +v Trefoil
  424. [21:29:02] Trefoil naturally gravitates towards the weapons counter and the alcohol selection.
  425. [21:29:49] <+DontAskForCookies> Trefoil finds a nice selection of small arms as well as one vicisous looking SMG, and in a fridge on the wall are sevral beers.
  426. [21:30:24] Steel_Innocence nod-nods. "Okay. You make hats?"
  427. [21:30:26] Trefoil doesn't like beer or small arms, and is once again heartily disappointed by this town.
  428. [21:30:42] Violet seems to have dozed off.
  429. [21:30:45] Arcane_Scroll[A] is now known as Arcane_Scroll.
  430. [21:30:48] Trefoil choses to sorta just breath in Gizmo's ear while he tries to make a deal.
  431. [21:30:50] Hospice clapped her hooves together. "Oh great! Sure!" Hospice immediately started following the friendly totally not suspicious businesspony.
  432. [21:31:31] Gizmo shivers and looks to Trefoil. "Oh, any reason why you're on my ear?"
  433. [21:31:35] <+DontAskForCookies> "Well we do have a patched up radiation suit we just got done mending with some spare rubber and some wonder glue we could show you, besides that the rarest thing we have is that plasma gernage..."
  434. [21:32:09] <+Trefoil> "Nope."
  435. [21:32:44] Gizmo looks to Tre. "You're good with explosives right?"
  436. [21:32:53] <+Trefoil> "Sure, yeah."
  437. [21:33:01] <+Trefoil> "Also with m'tongue."
  438. [21:33:07] <+DontAskForCookies> The mare shakes her head, "No, well not specifically. My husband is a tailor, he makes clothing and excessories for a living. He even made the mayors new coat. Not bad for a pony who has only just moved into town eh?"
  439. [21:33:30] Gizmo sighs and facehoofs. "How much for the grenade?"
  440. [21:34:49] <+Steel_Innocence> "Ooh, that coat was really nice. He must make very nice things."
  441. [21:35:14] Trefoil frowns, "I ain't sellin' muh grenades!"
  442. [21:35:27] <+DontAskForCookies> The Business pony leads Hospice a few bocks away to a building behind a larger one out of sight. Hospice quickly picks up on the odd smell of various chemicals, she can even see where some have stained the dirt outside the building . Various barrels and long rubber tubes run along the outside of the building, an odd colored smoke lifts from the pipe chimney
  443. [21:35:54] Gizmo sighs again. "Not yours you dope! She has a plasma grenade!"
  444. [21:35:57] <+DontAskForCookies> "Here we are my dear, my workshop. where I make my medicen"
  445. [21:36:40] Violet pays for her food and just goes back to the APC to take a nap in the driver's seat.
  446. [21:37:15] <+Trefoil> "I heard.:
  447. [21:37:18] <+Trefoil> *heard."
  448. [21:37:19] <+DontAskForCookies> The mare smiles at the complement, "Well yes, he used to be all the rage back at Plesent Hill before we moved. Im ever so proud of him"
  449. [21:38:44] Puzzler is sleeping curled up on the floor in the APC infront of his seat. His notebook in his hooves.
  450. [21:39:40] <+DontAskForCookies> The older mare chews it over for a bit before saying, "well sonny I couldnt let that Plasma gernade go for less than 115 caps"
  451. [21:39:52] Hospice frowned. "Oh. Well, I suppose it could be more sanitary. Uh, but first, I get paid for this don't I?"
  452. [21:40:16] Gizmo sighs. "Well unless you've got something to trade," He looks to Tre. "I cant buy it."
  453. [21:41:06] Violet smiles at the sleeping Puzzler, and stands there fidgetting for a few moments before continuing on to her seat, taking the dress off and slipping it back into her bags, and curling up under her jacket blanket.
  454. [21:41:08] <+DontAskForCookies> The business pony is already at the door and unlocking it when Hospice pipes up, "Oh, well Im sure we can come to some arrangment. I can pay you in caps for sure but could I intrest you in trade, some of my product and perhapse a future discount?"
  455. [21:41:17] Trefoil shakes her head, "N'way, that's fuckin' expensive."
  456. [21:42:33] Gizmo smiles at the shop ponies. "Thanks anyways, We'll be in town for a bit so We might be back." He smiles and starts to head off before turning back. "How much for the booze?"
  457. [21:43:08] Trefoil shrugs. Might as well hit up the bar now; this place suuuuucked.
  458. [21:43:13] <+DontAskForCookies> The mare looks disaprovingly at Trefoil, "Watch your toung sonny, this is a public shop". She then looks to Gizmo with a smile, "Come again freind!"
  459. [21:43:36] <+Trefoil> "Yeah yeah, w'do ma."
  460. [21:43:38] Hospice looked a bit puzzled, "Hmm...all of the above would be nice. Wait, this isn't the most...legitimate establishment...is it?"
  461. [21:44:22] Gizmo shrugs and head back towards Brimstone. He trots inside with his new pistol in tow and looks to the shop keep. "Please, do inform me more on your custom orders."
  462. [21:45:24] <+DontAskForCookies> The buisness pony looks around, "Well it may be a bit rough around the edges but I assure you that this, this is but the humble orgins of what will some day be a shining example of good health and living in the wasteland!"
  463. [21:46:33] <+DontAskForCookies> The red pony is still at the bars when Gizmo walks in, "Sure, you interested? I do custom gun fabrication and midification for the right ammount of caps"
  464. [21:47:01] Ho-Spice [[email protected]] joined the channel.
  465. [21:47:04] <+Gizmo> "Fabrication?'
  466. [21:47:29] Violet sets mode +v Ho-Spice
  467. [21:47:41] Hospice [[email protected]] has quit (Ping timeout: 121 seconds).
  468. [21:48:10] <+DontAskForCookies> THe red pony smiles, "Sure do, I have the second best stocked shop in town next to Girdir. I bet Im about the only pony you will ever meat who is still makeing guns rather than just fixing up old ones"
  469. [21:48:40] Trefoil strikes out for the bar Girder recommended and evidently patronized himself.
  470. [21:48:51] Gizmo smiles. "Well then." He steps up and places his hoof on the counter. "How much would i get for this?" He asks refering to his Pipbuck.
  471. [21:50:54] <+DontAskForCookies> Eventually Trefoil find the bar, which appears to be a large section of the top most decks of the ferry boat banked on the river bed dragged out into town with a large dance floor outside. Trefoil can hear live music, talking, laughing, and smell booz on the cold wind
  472. [21:51:24] Trefoil thinks she might just have found the best place in town.
  473. [21:52:09] Steel_Innocence tastes her shubbert. The cold orange-y dessert melts in her tongue with a very pleasant sugary flavor. "Mmm~ I never tasted a thing like this. The outside has nice foods."
  474. [21:53:06] Steel_Innocence takes another look at the mare's book.
  475. [21:53:13] Trefoil makes for the doors at the trot.
  476. [21:54:56] <+DontAskForCookies> Trefoil walkes into the bar, the double doors swinging shut behind her. Inside are at least three dozen ponies sitting at various tables and the counter. A live pand is playing a jaunty tune and outside you can see poines dancing on the dace floor under the now eluminated lights. Several ponies rush around the bar to refil drinks and take orders
  477. [21:55:54] <+DontAskForCookies> The nice mare nods, "An excelent choice, they can only really make it when it gets cold". The book appears to be one with no pictures and a lot of words.
  478. [21:57:03] <+DontAskForCookies> The red pony eyes the pip-buck, "well I dont really deal in this stuff myself but I could maybe see way to trade for it. THey used to be worth a lot but after 23 cracked open the market was flooded with them.... so what did you want to get out of this?"
  479. [21:57:31] Trefoil mouths 'should have sent a poet' and bolts to the abr.
  480. [21:57:32] <+Trefoil> *bar
  481. [21:57:33] <+Steel_Innocence> "How do they make it?"
  482. [21:57:52] Gizmo shrugs. "Something good enough to take out a few ponies at a distance."
  483. [21:58:10] <+DontAskForCookies> The buisness pony looks around, "Well it may be a bit rough around the edges but I assure you that this, this is but the humble orgins of what will some day be a shining example of good health and living in the wasteland!"
  484. [21:59:31] <+Ho-Spice> "Oh, I see." Hospice replied in dead-pan. "I mean, I don't really care. I was just curious. Anyways sure, I'll take a look."
  485. [21:59:35] <+DontAskForCookies> The mare waves a hoof as she looks back into the building, "Im not really sure myself, Im not much of a cook you see, but Im sure you could ask the Jam family when they are not so busy. They own and run the place you see"
  486. [22:00:37] <+DontAskForCookies> Smileing the Buisness pony opens the door and lets Hospice into the shack. Inside are all sorts of tubes, beakers, running burners, tubes. The whole place is honestly a mess.
  487. [22:01:18] Trefoil shoulders her way to the bar to bask in the glory.
  488. [22:03:06] Steel_Innocence nod-nods and slowly eats the rest of the schubbert. She looks at the ponies around. She was almost sure she saw Violet before, but she doesn't know where she went. She turns back to the mare "Thanks for the tasty thing, miss Palet. I have to meet my friends now."
  489. [22:03:31] <+DontAskForCookies> Nearly as soon as Trefoil is inside a cute Mare in appron with a Strawberry on it stops and curtsies, "Welcome to Strawberries place miss, please have a seat and one of the girls will be around to take your order"
  490. [22:03:45] <+Trefoil> "A'ight, thanks lil' lady."
  491. [22:04:07] Trefoil looks around for an empty table with a good range to the bar.
  492. [22:05:00] <+DontAskForCookies> The red pony strokes his chin as he thinks, then brightens up a bit as he nods towards the door. "meet me out back will ya? I think I have something you may be interested in"
  493. [22:05:48] Gizmo goes out back to behind Brimstone
  494. [22:08:03] Ho-Spice shudders at the complete mess that she found but somehow found it within her to immediately start barking out what was wrong with sanitation.
  495. [22:08:38] <+DontAskForCookies> Waiting out behind Brimstone is the red pony, unlocking a small shack. Hearing Gizmo approaching the pony turns and grins, "So your one of the stable dwellers that came to town today in a APC right?"
  496. [22:09:38] Gizmo nods. "Yeah Just arrived today"
  497. [22:09:47] Trefoil waits at her table for another cute mare to appear with a drinks menu.
  498. [22:09:54] <+DontAskForCookies> Palet waves to Steel as she leaves, "Do come visit me at my husmands shop, its called Stitches"
  499. [22:11:12] <+DontAskForCookies> As if by magic one appears right away and begins to list what drinks they had, a very long list I should add, "Vodka, Rum, wine, Scotch, Whisky, Beer-", really it just seems to go on and on
  500. [22:12:41] <+DontAskForCookies> The red pony nods, "Thats what I thought. Now I have something I made for a gentlecolt who used to run a boat up and down the river but he whent out of buisness a while back and now Im stuck with it. If your interested I can do a straight traid for your pip-buck or if you the sort interested in some work I have a job you could do for it"
  501. [22:13:08] Steel_Innocence waves. "Okay. We are on the big car place if you want to see me." She walks away, wandering again through Clover's streets. Though she can't find Violet anywhere, eventually she finds herself trotting by the nice colorful building of Clover's School.
  502. [22:13:17] Trefoil thinks on that for a while, so many choices, "Hm. How about Johneigh Walker Red Label and soda?"
  503. [22:13:25] <+DontAskForCookies> Opening the lock the red pony slide the door open to releavl a very large and heavy looking harpoon gun settled in the shack, which appears to be a supply shed
  504. [22:13:56] Gizmo smiles. "Oh... wow." Gizmo marvels over it. "Okay, can i get a description of this job?"
  505. [22:15:07] <+DontAskForCookies> The business pony quickly starts to write down the infractions as Hospice calls them out, "Ok then.. clean out beakers between use, move glass farther from flame, keep lid shut on chemicals... got ya, could you maybe slow down?" Soon Hospice has given the pony enough to think about to fill up a whole page
  506. [22:16:17] <+DontAskForCookies> The sun is starting to set as Steel approches the school. It seems the ponies have all gone home for the day but in a side building Steel can still see a light on.
  507. [22:18:08] <+Ho-Spice> "O-oh. Sorry about that." Hospice slowed down and continued.
  508. [22:18:48] <+DontAskForCookies> The red pony nods, "Well I have a special delivery for a pony in Tenpony tower, I was suppose to have it sent out to a caravan heading up that way from Underpass a few days ago but the traider never showed up to pick up my package. If you could carry it to underpass and make sure it gets on the next caravan for Ten-pony tower I could see to makeing sure this gets fixed on top of your APC"
  509. [22:18:54] Steel_Innocence trots to the side building, wondering if the miss box thingy is there. She takes a look through the window.
  510. [22:19:47] <+DontAskForCookies> The cute mare in the Strawberry apron smiles and is off with a nod, "Right away miss!"
  511. [22:20:32] <+DontAskForCookies> Inside Steel sees Miss bolts floating around a room filled with books, restocking and organizing the shelves
  512. [22:21:42] Gizmo shrugs. "Now where is this Underpass?"
  513. [22:22:21] Steel_Innocence knocks on the door.
  514. [22:23:30] Trefoil strips off her ruin of a poncho.
  515. [22:23:47] <+DontAskForCookies> The red pony starts to explain, "well its about a day and half on hoof from here to the east, but I bet you could make it a lot faster on you APC. Its located under a large overpast, a good ways north from Buck-A-Vist... tell you what you have a map right? why dont you let me point it out?"
  516. [22:24:33] <+DontAskForCookies> After a short while the door to the library opens, inside float miss bolts, "Hello, may I help you?"
  517. [22:24:52] Gizmo puts his hoof out with his pipbuck and turns on the map feature
  518. [22:26:26] <+DontAskForCookies> The red pony points out its location, "So what do you think champ? can you get it done? I was on a time limit but shoot the things already late, but would like to get it out the door and on the way as soon as I can"
  519. [22:28:10] <+DontAskForCookies> After what seems like the shortest wait of her life the cute mare returns with the drink order, "And can I entrest you in anything to eat with that hun? We have some fried mushrooms that are nice and a rare spicey Mire lurk cake that is to die for"
  520. [22:28:17] Gizmo nods. "I should be able to get it done." He smiles. "Do you have anything in the way of snipers? I don't really like getting up close incase anything goes wrong."
  521. [22:29:45] Trefoil considers her options, "How much are the mushrooms?"
  522. [22:30:02] <+DontAskForCookies> The red pony nods, "Sure, what sort of damage were you looking to do? I have all sorts of rifles at all sorts or cost"
  523. [22:30:21] Violet ...keeps on sleeping.
  524. [22:30:43] <+Steel_Innocence> "Hello miss Bolts, I'm Steel Innocence. I saw you before with the foals and you looked like a nice like a nice box thing and the foals were happy and playing and you take care for them to be fine and that is nice. I never seen a box teacher before. We had lighty boxes and pony teachers in the stable place, but not a box teacher. The nice miss Palet said to come here and I went here."
  525. [22:30:56] <+DontAskForCookies> The cute mare points to another table who are munching on some mushrooms, "That will be 6 caps a plate hon"
  526. [22:31:00] Gizmo looks to the red pony. "Well just enough to cripple, if it's 'friendly' I dont want to kill it. But strong enough to take out smaller targets."
  527. [22:32:28] Trefoil smiles a little, trying to hide her knocked out tooth, "I'll take a plate then miss, thanks."
  528. [22:32:40] <+DontAskForCookies> Miss bolts continues to hover, "Well thats nice, I seem to remember you from earlier today. You were the one talking to our little Giddy"
  529. [22:35:41] Arcane_Scroll is now known as Arcane_Scroll[A].
  530. [22:35:56] Arcane_Scroll[A] is now known as Arcane_Eating[A].
  531. [22:36:05] <+DontAskForCookies> The red pony nods, "Well Im going to guess your on a bit of a small budget, am I right? In that case I have something you may be interested in"
  532. [22:36:24] Steel_Innocence nod-nods. "Yep, she is a nice little pony and she really like cars and wings and I don't know where a pony get wings, but we have a car and then we can go around and she will be happy and happy ponies are nice."
  533. [22:36:56] Gizmo raises his eyebrows. "Really now? Do show me please Mr...?"
  534. [22:37:12] Trefoil waits for her food, taking an occasional sip of her drink.

  536. [22:37:54] <+DontAskForCookies> Trefoils food soon arives
  537. [22:38:44] Trefoil is amazed by the service in this joint. She nods cheerfully, "Thanks! Oh, one last thing..."
  538. [22:39:35] <+DontAskForCookies> "Yes, we do try and make our younger ponies as happy as we can. Giddy is my newest student and while I have trouble keeping her on tast from time to time she is doing a great job adjusting to life in clover with her father"
  539. [22:40:24] <+DontAskForCookies> The red pony extends a hoof, "Cutter, Bot cutter. and you are?"
  540. [22:41:26] <+Steel_Innocence> "She is from another place?"
  541. [22:41:30] Gizmo shakes the hoof. "Gizmo, Gizmo Gearturner." He smiles. "I'm the one who mainly fixes that APC."
  542. [22:41:35] <+DontAskForCookies> The server waits, but is clearly in a rush and eager to zoom off, "Yes?"
  543. [22:42:05] <+Trefoil> "Have yaseen an old stallion name'a Girder?"
  544. [22:42:12] <+DontAskForCookies> In the corner of Trefoils eye she can see a colt staring at her"
  545. [22:42:45] <+DontAskForCookies> THe waitress nods, pointing outside. "Hes outside watching the dance floor, he likes to do that while he drinks"
  546. [22:43:30] <+DontAskForCookies> "Yes, Giddy and her father moved to Clover just four months ago"
  547. [22:44:17] <+DontAskForCookies> Bolt Cutter nods, "A pleasure to meet you, now if youll follow me inside Ill show you what I have in mind"
  548. [22:45:14] Gizmo follows happily
