  1. 01[21:19] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- STAR GROUP SESSION 33 BEGINNING --------------------------------------------------------------------
  2. 01[21:24] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Once again we resume our saga in the large captial settlement of Dune, the Mareizona's de-facto capital of the Mareizona Wasteland. Having been witness to a tragic goodbye from family members, our group has split up to do various activites, while a certain balding cyber stallion anxiously awaits a date with a certain erotic dancer.
  3. 06[21:24] * +Sour_Grape was given expresso and is now dnacing to the music in the inn.
  4. 06[21:24] * +Slag_Heap is indeed excited. He looks at Sour_Grape. "So, can I get that 200 back now?"
  5. 01[21:25] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Sour_Grape, Slag_Heap, and Roy_Calbeck are in the Broken Carriage Wheel tavern, with the handsome white stallion treating Peach Nectar's chem addictions, discussing her future. Sagittis and Dust_Off are outside of Dune, scavenging for alchemic herbs and plotting big plans for the powerbase of the large settlement.
  6. 06[21:26] * +Roy_Calbeck and Peach Nectar are sleeping through their second cycle, having put the mare through ten days of no-drug metabolism. Now, what normally happens around the second week of detox...?
  7. 01[21:27] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Peach Nectar slumbers in a magically enduced sleep. Looking very peaceful, though her mane is nowhere the lustre of a certain perfectly coiffured pegasexy.
  8. [21:27] <+Roy_Calbeck> (second four-hour cycle)
  9. [21:28] <+Dust_Off> Damn straight her mane isn't as luxurious. Dusty tosses her mane. "So...new faction..."
  10. 06[21:29] * +Slag_Heap has the MOST luxurious mane.
  11. 06[21:33] * +Dust_Off looks around for any salvageable material.
  12. 06[21:34] * +Roy_Calbeck does not covet Peach's mane, and most definitely does not end up curling his unconscious form around hers while snoozling.
  13. 06[21:34] * +Sour_Grape looks over at Slag, "Huh what money why."
  14. [21:36] <+Slag_Heap> "I got a meeting tonight."
  15. 06[21:36] * +Sour_Grape blinks and nods, "OH YEAH! Your date with whatsher face, the whore'er whatever." She pauses. "Ain't sure that worth group funds."
  16. 06[21:38] * +Slag_Heap "I gave you 600."\
  17. 06[21:39] * +Sour_Grape nods, "Right. You /gave/ it to me. Now where in that staement mr. fancypants, does it say it's yours? It's with ours, that makes it tha groups, an ah don't think tha group can handle tha whorin' expensice."
  18. 06[21:40] * +Slag_Heap blinks, then frowns. "We honestly don't know if she's a whore, and Dust said I'd be tipping her one hundred. I don't plan on paying her for sex if she IS a whore."
  19. 06[21:41] * +Sour_Grape rolls her eyes, "Then whats the money for? Huuuh? a found da cunt in a cunt shop, so don't be surprised."
  20. 06[21:42] * +Slag_Heap "I need the money so I can give the tip Dust promised, and possibly dinner depending on how the initial meeting goes."
  21. 06[21:42] * +Dust_Off glances at Sagittis.
  22. [21:43] <+Sour_Grape> Sour rolls her eyes, "Well, convince me it's worth group money ta."
  23. 06[21:45] * +Slag_Heap sighs. "When I gave you that cash, I thought we were still entitled to it." He looks into his own packs and hums. "How about fifty caps. I also got the dubloons if I can exchange them."
  24. 06[21:46] * +Sour_Grape leans towards Slag_Heap and grins, "You're terrible at this. Convince me ya need tha caps~"
  25. 01[21:46] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Searching around the area, Dust_Off finds an ancient abandoned skywagon... well at least just small bits and pieces of one... the only thing to distinguish it would be the faded decals and words on a corner husk that reads, 'Mareizona Pegasi Transit'. In the broken remains is a steam gauge assembly, a spark battery, and two pieces of scrap metal.
  26. 06[21:47] * +Slag_Heap looks at Sour_Grape. "How about: I'm a lonely old man who hasn't been on a date let alone anything else in the past ten years."
  27. 03[21:47] * Steve ([email protected]) has joined #FalloutEquestriaPNP
  28. 01[21:49] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 What's a man Slag_Heap?
  29. [21:49] <+Slag_Heap> *stallion
  30. 06[21:51] * +Sour_Grape snorts and giggles, "Yer tryin' appeal ta mah heart? Word'a warnin' this ain't gunna get'cha anywhere."
  31. 02[21:52] * Fridge ([email protected]) Quit (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)
  32. 06[21:53] * +Dust_Off gathers the bits of junk and see how much metal has survived and if she could lift said metal hulk with help.
  33. 06[21:53] * +Slag_Heap chuckles. "I know you're heartless. I was stating a fact. How aboooout... I get you another espresso sometime?"
  34. 01[21:53] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Sagittis gets a rather nice armored view.
  35. 06[21:54] * +Sour_Grape humms, "Fine, but don't tell Dusty ever or else." She hoofs over the 200 caps, "I'm only givin'em up this easy cause yer new at this. Ain't gunna be so fuckin' lienent next time."
  36. 06[21:55] * +Slag_Heap nods. "I'll give you the change." He takes them. "Thanks, kid."
  37. 06[21:56] * +Slag_Heap hmmms. "You need a nick name... how about Killer? Destroyer?"
  38. 01[21:57] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 I vote for Sour_Grape's nick name to be, "Ant bait"
  39. 06[21:58] * +Dust_Off has an iron-clad plot....well ceramic...anyways. She picks up the stuff and meant to assess if the hulk of the air transport could be moved.
  40. 06[21:58] * +Sagittis smirks a little at the view. "Yes, that is the thought." He steps up next to Dust_Off. "Interested?"
  41. 06[21:58] * +Sour_Grape rolls her eyes, "Ah don't need any'a yer fuckin' nicknames."
  42. 06[21:59] * +Slag_Heap smirks. "Alright, fine." He sits back. "Now where the hell are the others..."
  43. 01[21:59] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 The scorched bits and pieces of the long destroyed skywagon have been largely picked cleaned and still weighs quite a bit. Not even Sagittis or Slag could manage to move it on their own.
  44. 06[22:02] * +Sour_Grape staps her hooves loudly, "Prolly fuckin' schemin an shit! thats whythey didn't invite me, didn't wanna get outclassed."
  45. 06[22:02] * +Slag_Heap nods. "Seems legit."
  46. 06[22:04] * +Dust_Off muses on the skywagon wreck and files its location away. She looks up at the horizon, still looking away from Sagittis. "I am intrigued. Glassy Flats...I want to help them, but we'll never be able to secure them without Dune, and Dune is too ready to fall from Legion pressure or collapse inward from rot and decay."
  47. 06[22:08] * +Sagittis nods and pats Dust_Off on the back. "Exactly. That is why we need to replace the rotten core with something strong and proactive. Give the smaller settlements like Glassy Flats a place to rally around and a place they can rely on. I was also thinking on making a road or something to help facilitate trade with the Flats without needing guides and small groups."
  48. [22:08] <+Dust_Off> "Mile stones."
  49. 06[22:12] * +Sagittis nods. "Yeah. Just a thought for the future."
  50. 06[22:13] * +Slag_Heap taps his hoof on the counter
  51. 01[22:14] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 A waiter mare trots over to Slag_Heap and gives the cyber stallion a friendly smile, "Whatcha need?"
  52. 06[22:14] * +Dust_Off nods. "Yes. The future..." She turns back to Sagittis, "You...don't like pegasi. You speak griffonish.
  53. 06[22:17] * +Sagittis shakes his head. "I don't like Enclave and any who would support them or their rape of my home."
  54. 06[22:19] * +Dust_Off blinks, "Ah. Thought so..." She looks away. "I-I thought there only was the Enclave. That I could be Enclave or a traitor...but...the Enclave is dead. What I loved...thought I loved isn't there. The ideal isn't there, maybe never was."
  55. 01[22:20] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Hearing the door open to the tavern, Sour_Grape and Slag_Heap can see a strange grey, rotted coat pegasus mare ghoul, with strands of yellow mane with a chalkboard hanging around her neck and a large series of saddlebags about her. Looking about with... a wall eye... the mare blinks and smiles with various missing teeth when she spots the two and makes her way to their table. taking her chalkboard, she writes on it with a worn piece of chalk and shows the words that say on it, 'Are you Sour_Grape and Slag_Heap?'
  56. 06[22:20] * +Slag_Heap reads it and nods. "Yeah, that's us."
  57. 06[22:21] * +Sour_Grape raises an eyebrow, "What's it to you ugly." SHe glares at Slag_Heap giving them away.
  58. 01[22:22] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 The ghoul mare smiles again happily then wipes it off and writes on it again. Seemingly unfazed by the filly's attitude. After she's done, she pulls out a letter and places it on the table then shows the board once more as it reads, 'Message from a Gareth. Thank you, have a great day!'
  59. 06[22:23] * +Sagittis snorts and kicks a chunk of metal. "You sound like you support them... Did you stick around after the Rainbooms?
  60. [22:23] <+Sagittis> "
  61. 01[22:24] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Er the chalkboard actually didn't ask for Slag_Heap.
  62. 06[22:24] * +Sour_Grape takes the letter, "Uh, thanks." She's a bit confused by the happy ghoul. "What'er ya keep similin' bout me?"
  63. 06[22:24] * +Slag_Heap didn't say it was us then. He merely looked at Sour_Grape.
  64. 06[22:25] * +Dust_Off sighs, "I was in medical school on the day of Dissipation and Rainbooms. I enlisted...there was an extreme shortage of medics."
  65. 01[22:27] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 The ghoul mare fishes through her bags and pulls out a nice smelling muffin! With a small hint of something to it, as she places it on the table and noses it to Sour_Grape. Now writing once more on the table she shows it to the two, it reading, 'Just enjoying the nice weather here! I forgot how warm the Mareizona is this time of year! It's so much colder in Equestria right now! Enjoy your muffin and you two have a nice day!' the ghoul mare waves a wing to them and then exit the building.
  66. 06[22:28] * +Sour_Grape tilts her head and sniffs at the muffin. She takes a small bite. "Mhmm." She smiles, "It's good." She shoves the note over to Slag, "Ya mind readin' this for me."
  67. 06[22:28] * +Slag_Heap nods and takes it. "Right..." he reads it out.
  68. 01[22:29] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 There is also a smaller piece of paper clipped to the letter with a rusty paper clip.
  69. 06[22:30] * +Slag_Heap takes that piece off.
  70. 06[22:31] * +Sagittis pauses, knits his eyebrows and lets out a low growl.
  71. 01[22:33] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 The letter reads, 'Hey guys, just letting you all know that I got to Tenpony just fine... well sorta. Yao guai decided that we looked pretty tasty, so we had to take it out. Green also took a nasty bite on her butt from the thing... anyway, she's had her memory removed and those Dune agents are probably well on their way back. After all this, I gave my life a lot of thinking and I don't think running bodyguard is cut out for me. Maybe I'll take back up hunting or trapping... maybe even work on one of those new farms they got springing up around these parts... anyway, Hope you're all doing well and sorry that Green nearly screwed you guys. Good luck in your life. -Gareth."
  72. 06[22:33] * +Dust_Off stands her ground. "It was my home. My family. My people. You'd do the same...hopefully not be so blind."
  73. 06[22:34] * +Sour_Grape frowns, "Should'a been her head."
  74. 06[22:34] * +Slag_Heap "Friend of yours?"
  75. 03[22:35] * Micro_Sparkle ([email protected]) has joined #FalloutEquestriaPNP
  76. 06[22:35] * +Sour_Grape shrugs, "Sort'a."
  77. 06[22:35] * +Sagittis snorts. "You joined up with the fucking monsters /AFTER/ they showed their true colors?! After they almost destroyed Equestria like they destroyed the Griffin lands?!"
  78. 06[22:38] * +Dust_Off glances back. "I joined to protect and secure my people after WE were almost destroyed by rainbooms and the sudden destruction of our clouds. By the time I joined, I was only trying to keep my people from murdering each other..." she grits her teeth.
  79. 06[22:41] * +Sagittis looks over to Dust_Off under his bangs. "And yet here you are. What? Did the monsters finally turn on you and then you figured out what they were doing is wrong, like that little sniveling shit back in Glassy Flats?"
  80. 06[22:43] * +Dust_Off nods, "No, I knew. Like you said. Everyone knew by the time...I wanted to change things from the inside...try to not break our society anymore that it was...my Sandy. She wanted more, quicker...and I ran after they killed her."
  81. 06[22:45] * +Slag_Heap taps his hoof on the table more.
  82. 06[22:47] * +Sour_Grape stares at Slag_Heap in an attempt to blow up his head with her eye lazers
  83. 06[22:47] * +Slag_Heap looks at Sour_Grape. "What do you want?"
  84. 06[22:47] * +Sagittis snorts and starts walking away. "You must have been such a disappointment to her."
  85. 01[22:48] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 The waiter mare comes back, leaving initally when she was ignored. Frowning now she looks at Slag_Heap and asks, "Yo, this is the second time you've tapped your hoof... Do you need something or not?"
  86. 06[22:48] * +Sour_Grape frowns, "Damn."
  87. 01[22:48] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Only Blackjack and maybe Silver Storm get eye lazers Sour_Grape. Silly filly.
  88. 06[22:48] * +Slag_Heap was just tapping to pass time. "Nope."
  89. 06[22:48] * +Dust_Off closes her eyes. "I know. I saw her...through the Hollow...and she was always ashamed..."
  90. 01[22:49] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 The waiter mare frowns harder and says, "Alright..." then leaves.
  91. 06[22:50] * +Sour_Grape says to Slag_Heap, "Stop tappin' dumbass."
  92. 06[22:50] * +Sagittis had a line ready to twist the knife, but does not think he needs to, he just heads back to town."
  93. 06[22:51] * +Slag_Heap frowns. "But her attitude is oh so endearing."
  94. [22:51] <+Slag_Heap> "I just want to experience it time and time again."
  95. 06[22:52] * +Dust_Off follows behind the colt quietly.
  96. 06[22:54] * +Sour_Grape rolls her eyes, "Dumbass."
  97. 01[22:54] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Time passes once more, with the sun going down and the night coming to life in the Mareizona. Having made their way back to the Broken Carriage Wheel, it is roughly 15 minutes before Slag_Heap's BIG date. In his room with Peach Nectar, Roy_Calbeck manages to wake up and sees that the mare has already gotten up... and is sifting through Roy's belongings!
  98. 06[22:55] * +Slag_Heap "Says the kid who can't read." He says before leaving for a shower. Now it is before his date and he waits in a booth, looking clean cut and refreshed. Pretty good too.
  99. 06[22:57] * +Sour_Grape is not sure where she is anymore
  100. 06[22:57] * +Dust_Off walks into inn and goes up to the head waiter, "You wouldn't happen to have a workbench, would you?" The mare asks quietly. The pegasus's mane looks less lustrous and in fact droops a bit.
  101. 01[22:57] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Slag_Heap would've had to used the public washrooms that carry no soap or shampoo, or paid 30 caps for the cheapest room with a bathroom
  102. 06[22:58] * +Slag_Heap was still using the room they had before >>
  103. 06[22:59] * +Roy_Calbeck clears his throat, his tailtip lifting to reveal the .357 revolver as he points it at Peach Nectar.
  104. 06[22:59] * +Sour_Grape presumably notices Dust_Off come back and walks over to her. She fails to notice that Dust_Off is upset, which can only be a good thing for sagi. "Yo dusty!"
  105. 01[22:59] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 The owner of the tavern looks over at Dust_Off and shakes his head speaking apologetically in his totally non-stereotypical accent, "Non, madamemoiselle! We have no workbeenches here. Ze Ore district has them in there... hardware store."
  106. 06[23:00] * +Sagittis goes over and spreads out his herb haul on a table, muttering to himself.
  107. 01[23:01] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Peach Nectar squeaks loudly and jumps in her hide as the stallion clears his throat. Looking as if she was going to bolt to the door, instead she freezes in place at the sight of the revolver and looks at him with large fearful eyes.
  108. 06[23:01] * +Dust_Off glances at Grape, "Hello, Grape." The subdued mare turns away to leave again.
  109. 06[23:02] * +Roy_Calbeck calmly looks at the mare. "Can't say I'm surprised. You've been through about two weeks' worth of rehab in eight hours. I wasn't quite expectin' ya to get up before I did, though."
  110. 06[23:02] * +Sour_Grape jumps on Dust_Off's back, "Is something wrong? Yer still upset 'bout whatsherface?"
  111. 01[23:03] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 As Dust_Off trots out, she sees Sweet Melody with large saddlebags equipped as well as her combat barding. The older adolscent pretty snow white mare makes her way to the tavern and spots her... looking well... as if she's been crying nonstop for hours, as she speaks to her, "Hey... D-Dust_Off... right? I'm ready to go."
  112. 06[23:06] * +Slag_Heap waits in his booth. He thinks about having a cigar, but doesn't light one up.
  113. 06[23:07] * +Dust_Off looks over at Sweet Melody, so conveniently not answering Sour_Grape, "We, um, aren't leaving just yet. Mister Heap has a meeting...and Mister Calbeck has a treatment he's performing."
  114. 06[23:08] * +Roy_Calbeck patiently waits for the frightened mare to come up with a response, his pistol unwaveringly aimed between her eyes. How CAN he sight with the thing held in his tail like that?
  115. 06[23:09] * +Sour_Grape peeks up over Dust_Off's head, "We could take her back now an come back for tweedle-dee ad tweedle-dumb."
  116. 06[23:10] * +Roy_Calbeck prefers to be called "Tweedle-Derp", and can fake the lazy eye to make it work.
  117. 01[23:10] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Peach Nectar gulps then starts quibbling her bottom lip and shakes in slight fear, "I-... I-I'm s-s-s-sorry... I... I... I couldn't h-help it... i-it... it's making me c-crazy... like... my head can't stop t-thinkin a-a-about it... all I could think about in my s-sleep was dash... or b-b-b-b-bo-oom.."
  118. 01[23:10] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Peach Nectar slightly shakes in visible fear that is.
  119. 06[23:10] * +Roy_Calbeck nods. "Yeah. I know. And it's always going to be out there, somewhere, isn't it? Somewhere for you to try and find and buy or steal and get all screwed up again and eventually die."
  120. 12[23:11] * Dust_Off is now known as Commander_Dustperd
  121. 01[23:12] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Sweet Melody furrows her brow and speaks rather disappointedly, "O-Oh... Okay... w-well.. umm... I'll... wait... here then if that's okay with you guys? Or... is it okay if like...I go with you wherever to... wherever you're going right now?"
  122. 01[23:13] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Peach Nectar begins to leak tears, giving pathetic shudders and not answering, instead she looks away down to the ground. Probably too ashamed to confirm Roy_Calbeck's words.
  123. 06[23:13] * +Commander_Dustperd looks at Sagittis and Slag_Heap and then Sweet Melody and then glances up at Sour_Grape. "It is only a few hours..."
  124. 06[23:13] * +Slag_Heap is in a booth by his lonesom.
  125. 01[23:14] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Slag_Heap has been on a rather long Lonesome Road.
  126. 06[23:14] * +Sour_Grape nods, "Alright, come with us then. We'll totes protect ya. Hopefully be gone tonight."
  127. 06[23:15] * +Sagittis looks up at Sweet Melody and gives a wave before getting back to his herbs.
  128. 01[23:16] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Sweet Melody looks reassured and gives a small smile, ready to follow the group as they make their way to the hardware store... whoever it may be. Inside the store once more is a bald brown earth pony stallion, wearing a snazzy black leather trenchcoat, sporting circular shades.
  129. 12[23:16] * Commander_Dustperd is now known as Dust_Off
  130. [23:17] <+Roy_Calbeck> "Well? Do you want to die, or do you want to try for a better life than you really deserve?"
  131. 06[23:18] * +Sour_Grape says to Dust_Off, "Ya know Slag let me have an expresso, cause he's easy'ta sway. You should be careful not'ta give him any vital information."
  132. 06[23:18] * +Roy_Calbeck arches one eyebrow, waiting.
  133. 06[23:18] * +Dust_Off still totally doesn't get the reference being hinted at. She's not the...One...who gets these things. The mare walks in to hardware store. She doesn't look at Sour. "Oh...that's good to know."
  134. 01[23:19] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Peach Nectar sniffles and looks back up to Roy_Calbeck, very weakly in a quite broken voice replying, "I... wanna try and do better..." her face dripping tears to the floor.
  135. 06[23:20] * +Sour_Grape frowns at Dust_Off and climbs onto her head, "Whats tha matter?"
  136. 03[23:21] * Xavicorn ([email protected]) has joined #FalloutEquestriaPNP
  137. 12[23:21] * Moon_Rock is now known as Shadow|Sleep
  138. 01[23:21] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 The bald stallion spots the mares enter and gives a smile, a small gap inbetween his two front teeth as he speaks in an almost mystical tone, "A veritable trinity of mares. Welcome to my humble establishment. How can Morph Enos help you?"
  139. 06[23:21] * +Roy_Calbeck nods, getting to his hooves and slowly putting his gear together, keeping a careful eye on Peach Nectar. "Good. I don't blame ya fer yer cravings. You might always have 'em. But if you let 'em win, they WILL end up killin' you, even if just because they make it easier fer somepony else t'fuck with ya."
  140. 06[23:22] * +Sour_Grape looks over at Morph, "Well Mort Enope. We're lookin' fer a table ta make stuff wit."
  141. 06[23:22] * +Roy_Calbeck stops, turns, and gives Peach a flat look. "Like happened with you an' th' Legion."
  142. 06[23:24] * +Slag_Heap pulls his lighter out. He occupies his time opening it, lighting it, and closing it, occasionally staring into the flame.
  143. 06[23:25] * +Dust_Off nods. She lets her fore lock droop in front of her eyes, so coy and cute!
  144. 01[23:26] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Peach Nectar Juice nods to Roy_Calbeck saying, "I... I'll do b-better... I p-promise." Morph Enos waves a foreleg to the left wall speaking in his smile, "Ahh, many paths are set forth in our lives. To see those versed in the skill of mechanics is truly a gift." Pointing to a workbench he adds, "If you work at the blue bench... you will find tools required to craft any schematic you happen to have." pointng to the reloading bench, "If you work at the red bench... it will aid you in crafting various ammunition, perhaps even unorthadoxed variants."
  145. 12[23:27] * Steve is now known as Kar-Shower
  146. 06[23:28] * +Sour_Grape stares at Mort like he's talking zebra, "Uh... huh.
  147. 06[23:31] * +Roy_Calbeck nods again. "Then get this straight: you'd already be dead if I wasn't a decent enough pony t'see you were as much a victim as a problem. I will NOT be there if you blow this chance, an' odds are nopony like me will be, either." The stallion hefts his armor into place, settles his saddlebags onto his back, and magically cinches up all his buckles with military efficiency.
  148. 06[23:31] * +Roy_Calbeck "So. My group is headed fer Glassy Flats. I can escort you there, or let you go outside th' city gates. When we part ways, I'll give you a pistol plus plenty of ammo fer it, plus some water an' food. Then... yer life is up t'you."
  149. 01[23:31] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Once more the door opens and enters the thick and shapely built exotic red mare... wearing an... interesting silky, billowy white gown with a matching white face veil covering her snout. Heavy black mascara and gold glitter around her eyes, with her glossy, raven black mane hanging in luxurious curls... giving Dust_Off a severe run for her money. She looks about in the main room for her secret admirer... standing taller than even your average stallion.
  150. 06[23:32] * +Dust_Off nods at Morph Enos, "Thank you. Very clever color coding." She walks to the blue bench.
  151. 06[23:33] * +Slag_Heap looks over and sees her. He smiles and gives a polite wave. Daaaaaayum, she was gorgeous. He puts his lighter away.
  152. 06[23:33] * +Slag_Heap is also quite a bit taller than the average stallion.
  153. 01[23:34] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Peach Nectar blinks at Roy_Calbeck in disbelief then nods simply, saying simply, "O-.. Okay..."
  154. 01[23:36] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 A few other ponies in the tavern's main room also turn to stare at this... exoticly dressed mare, unblinking. She looks about in slight worry, unable to recognize who her admirer was, as she wasn't given really any description of him.
  155. 06[23:37] * +Roy_Calbeck looks back at the mare frankly. "So, which is it? Glassy Flats, or just outside th' gates?"
  156. 06[23:37] * +Slag_Heap gets up out of his booth and approaches the mare. "Ma'am," he says in his deep voice. "I'm Slag Heap." He bows his head slightly.
  157. 01[23:42] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Peach Nectar Juice replies to Roy_Calbeck, "G-.. Glassy Flats... I... I guess..." she seems very unsure. The Exotic mare looks at Slag_Heap for a moment then blinks, eyeing the cyberstallion for a moment. Gaining a softer expression, reminiscient of smiling which is hard to tell with her veil on, she gives a small bow as she speaks in a rather... husky lower than usual voice to the cyberstallion, "Jasmine Petal... It is... nice to meet you Slag_Heap. I was told that you appreciated my dancing?"
  158. 06[23:43] * +Slag_Heap nods. "Yeah, I thought it was beautiful." He nods at the booth he was in. "Care to take a seat?"
  159. 01[23:43] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Sweet Melody eyes Morph Enos surreally for a moment, then trots over to Dust_Off to observe her work. Rubbing one of her forelegs with a hoof.
  160. 06[23:44] * +Sour_Grape doesn't get clear answers from Dust_Off so asks Sweet Melody, "Ya know Mort thar?"
  161. 06[23:45] * +Sagittis gets up and puts his herbs away... He would need to find a new pony to fill the leader roll... Roy maybe? Naw. He is helping a traitor... Sour wouldn't be taken seriously, nor would he... Shit. Well there was that idea down the drain. He gets up and heads to the door before stopping and gritting his teeth. Fuck! He couldn't even ask around for information in this damn town because of his...
  162. 06[23:45] * +Sagittis ...stripes... He lets out a sigh and slips out the door. Maybe her could stake out the Sugar manor. Maybe rob an aristocrat or two.
  163. 01[23:45] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Jasmine Petal nods and gives a little bow, "Why yes, thank you." then makes her way and nestles into the booth. A stallion trots by and blinks at the mare, then looks over at Slag_Heap for a moment, blinking repeatedly. Afterwards he simply turns away in a rather... stupified expression and leaves the two alone.
  164. 06[23:45] * +Slag_Heap sits in the booth and smiles. "I think my associate said something about a tip." He pulls out a bag of one hundred caps. "A hundred caps, was it?"
  165. 01[23:46] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Jasmine Petal blinks at Slag_Heap and tilts her head speaking, "A... tip?" she then frowns and says, "Did you take me for /that/ kind of dancer, Mr. Heap?" her voice sounding rather insulted.
  166. 06[23:47] * +Dust_Off takes the several sets of combat armor out and looks them over. She takes the best (60) and worst (23) and combines parts from them to make a better set of armor.
  167. 06[23:47] * +Slag_Heap shakes his head. "I sincerely hoped not. My associate mentioned a tip." He takes the caps back. "Your dancing is definitely worth a lot more anyway."
  168. 06[23:48] * +Sour_Grape doesn't get an answer from Sweet Melody either... dang.
  169. 01[23:49] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Sweet Melody turns to Sour_Grape speaking to her, "I didn't do much trading here, usually spent my time in the kiosks because... well I really hate this district."
  170. 06[23:50] * +Sour_Grape tilts her head, "Why?"
  171. 06[23:51] * +Roy_Calbeck gives Peach a long look, then nods once more before floating out another round of cheap food for the mare. "Eat up, drink up, wash up, nap if ya feel like, but stay here 'til I come get ya." He turns and walks out of the room, heading for the restaurant portion of the Broken Carriage Wheel.
  172. 01[23:51] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Jasmine Petal still looks rather insulted then sighs and shakes her head. "I get better than average pay Mr. Heap. I do not mind gratiuity if it is in appreaciation for my culture's dancing, but I find extorting my bodily temple for money, vile...." looking sad she mumbles, "Maybe... this was mistake." her voice having an odd accent.
  173. 01[23:52] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Sweet Melody frowns and rubs a little more on her foreleg to Sour_Grape, "Because this district is gross... all those... dancing ponies... they all look like they do chems too. Only district I like is the Juice district, but not by much. All of Dune sucks."
  174. 06[23:53] * +Slag_Heap blinks. "Ma'am, I don't have any plans on that sort of thing. I just want to get to know you, and maybe buy you dinner." He smiles. "As a gentlecolt should."
  175. 01[23:53] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Peach Nectar complies and Roy_Calbeck finds himself in said portion of the tavern, spotting Slag_Heap.
  176. 01[23:53] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Sagittis is outside of the Broken Carriage wheel in the Juice district.
  177. 06[23:54] * +Sour_Grape shrugs, "Ponies always say that Dune sucks but ah don't get it..."
  178. [23:54] <+Dust_Off> She goes ahead and repairs the middling two, combining them to get something..slightly better (55). The mare looks at the recon armors and shakes her head. She'd pay for them to be repaired. They were too valuable to reduced by her meager skill. She takes the three plasma pistols and combines them. She shuts out everything else, just working...not quite.
  179. 06[23:54] * +Roy_Calbeck also notes that Slag has company, and politely gives the stallion and his acquaintance a wide berth. The unicorn walks outside instead for a breath of fresh air.
  180. [23:54] <+Dust_Off> The pegasus sniffles as she works.
  181. [23:54] <+Dust_Off> (redact Just the best and worst of the three pistols)
  182. 06[23:56] * +Sagittis slinks off to the Sugar district, doing his best not to be seen.
  183. 06[23:56] * +Roy_Calbeck looks around.
  184. 01[23:57] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Roy_Calbeck finds Sagittis right outside the tavern, even at this time, the streets have ponies milling about in the street they're in. Jasmine Petal looks back over to Slag_Heap and replies, "Forgive me. Equestrian is not my first language. But you asked me to come out in private then offer money... it really made me believe to thinking that you wished for prostitiution." shaking her head again, the red dancer adds, "I would very much like then to eat and drink something. What do you do exactly Mr. Heap?"
  185. 06[23:59] * +Slag_Heap nods and smiles. "Its really comforting to know you don't do that." His smile falters a little. "Uh... honestly, I don't know. I used to be a soldier, had my own squad and everything. Now... I guess I'm a has-been. a drifter. Not much good, really." He gets up and grabs a menu. He returns and places it on the table. "Help yourself to anything, my treat."
  186. Session Time: Fri Jan 11 00:00:00 2013
  187. 06[00:03] * +Dust_Off looks up from her work and tucks it away. She tries to ignore the other females and heads back to Morph Enos. "Umm....sir, do you have three fission batteries, a pressure cooker, and a crutch?"
  188. [00:03] <+Dust_Off> "Oh..and maybe surgical tubing? doesn't have to be clean...ish."
  189. 06[00:04] * +Sagittis can indeed be seen by Roy_Calbeck.
  190. 01[00:04] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Sweet Melody sighs and replies to Sour_Grape, "It's... not a nice place. Sis...." the mare goes silent briefly, before continuing, "used to talk about... our old home... it was really small but she said it was a lot nicer. She talked about leaving and going back, but only when we had enough money to buy our old home back... or get a new one. Ponies here are... angry... rude... nasty... usually on chems... and creepy. I see weird ponies in those suits near the whore bar that eye me like meat... some mare even came up to me and told me that when I became older a couple years ago that she'd give me a nice job... but I've seen mares there... a lot of them look... horrible and sad."
  191. 01[00:04] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Roy_Calbeck manages to catch Sagittis slinking off... his impressive aresnal making a slight racket as he takes one misstep. Damn it!
  192. 06[00:05] * +Roy_Calbeck spots Sagittis heading away towards the Sugar District, and falls in beside. "Seen any good shoppin' spots around here? You've been roamin' around town a lot more than any of us so far."
  193. 06[00:06] * +Sour_Grape listens and nods, "I guess. But I mean there's food'n protection'n an shit. Ah dunno. Could be worse..."
  194. 01[00:09] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Morph Enos nods to Dust_Off, replying to the pegasexy. "I do indeed. 12 caps for the crutch, 18 caps for the Pressure cooker, and 91 Caps for the Spark Batteries."
  195. 06[00:10] * +Sagittis looks back to Roy_Calbeck. "Aw fuck." He grinds his teeth a little. "No. No I haven't seen much worth while in this shit hole."
  196. 06[00:10] * +Dust_Off looks back at Sour_Grape. "Um...you got this?"
  197. 01[00:12] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Jasmine Petal nods to Slag_Heap eyeing the menu and speaking, "I will take the special then, Mr. Heap with some pure water." placing the menu down as a waiter stallion writes their order, the dancer tilts her head and asks the cyberstallion, "A soldier? Whom did you serve with? You were not with those... Steel Rangers were you?"
  198. 06[00:13] * +Sour_Grape looks at morph, "I wont go over 100 for the bundle."
  199. 06[00:13] * +Roy_Calbeck snorts. "A go-getter like you, not findin' anythin' in this town? Gimme a break. But hey, if ya don't wanna say, fine." He strides alongside the colt for a dozen steps before continuing. "Given that ya weren't off shoppin', what've ya got in mind then?"
  200. 06[00:13] * +Slag_Heap looks at the waiter. "I'll have the same." He looks back at Jasmine. "Naw, definitely not. The rangers are why I have to lug this tin can around," he gestures to his leg. "Along with all the metal bits inside me. I'm not going to lie, I worked for some questionable people, but it was either that, become slaves, or die in the wastes."
  201. 01[00:15] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Sweet Melody sighs and nods sadly to Sour_Grape, "Yeah... that's another reason why we didn't like... up and leave... and ummm well... it's not /too/ safe here... ponies die all the time and... I think the guards just try to solve the crimes with as little effort as possible... like they don't even care... I swear once I knew a neighbor who... had her daughter disappear... and they found his body in an alley... then they grabbed some zebra and killed her, said they found a piece of old pre-war zebra clothing used to strangle my neighbor's daughter... but then like a week later, there was another victim that died the same way found in a different district."
  202. 06[00:16] * +Sagittis snorts. "Oh, I'm shopping. Just not in a store." He gives up trying to hide with Roy_Calbeck following him.
  203. 06[00:17] * +Sour_Grape nods at Sweet, "Ah guess..." She still doesn't see the problem, so a few ponies died but it wasn't that bad. "Jus', ah dunno. Better then some places ah've seen but whateva."
  204. 06[00:17] * +Dust_Off looks back towards Sweet Melody, "How long ago was this?"
  205. 01[00:19] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 The waiter nods and goes to get Slag_Heap and his date their orders. Jasmine looks interested in the bald stallions tale, replying, "One could say the same of my own employers. I find them rather despiciable... inticing most of their workers with large amounts of money... then using chems to hook their workers and sell it to them at cheap prices... they tried doing the same to me, but I would not have it. Only reason why I am still there is because I bring in a good crowd."
  206. 12[00:19] * Kar-Shower is now known as Karina
  207. 06[00:19] * +Roy_Calbeck nods, stopping to let Sagittis walk away. "I'll leave ya to it, then. Seeya back at th' Wheel." He turns to go find a place that sells pure water, other than the restaurant if possible.
  208. 06[00:20] * +Slag_Heap chuckles. "Good on you for keeping the moral high ground." He seriouses up a little. "My employers... well, ever heard of Red Eye?"
  209. 01[00:21] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Making their way to the Sugar District from the Juice District, Roy_Calbeck sees they're in the middle of Dune, with the various kiosk stands available. The Juice logo kiosk stand with it's merchant having various foodstuffs available.
  210. 06[00:23] * +Sagittis waves his tail. "You have fun with your treacherous, Legion scum." He tries again to get into a good sneaking groove.
  211. 06[00:23] * +Roy_Calbeck chuckles, tossing Sagi a smile over his shoulder as he trots to the Juice stand and has a look through the water offerings.
  212. 01[00:25] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Morph Enos agrees to 200 caps for Sour_Grape's wheeling and dealing. Score another silver tongued victory for the little filly.
  213. 06[00:26] * +Sour_Grape gives Morph the money, "You strike a hard bargain mort."
  214. 01[00:27] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 The vendor kiosk at Roy_Calbeck will sell bottles of pure water at 30 caps per bottle, only having a measly 3 bottles.
  215. 06[00:28] * +Dust_Off squees and takes the parts back to the work bench. The pepped up pegasus bangs away at the things with a wrench. Is this proper mechanics? Nope, but it seems to work.
  216. 06[00:30] * +Roy_Calbeck tries to remember. Is that cheaper or more expensive than the Wheel was selling it for? And why did he suddenly feel like it was a bit easier to remember things?
  217. 01[00:30] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Jasmine Petal nods to Slag_Heap replying to the bald stallion, "Yes, they were big news at one point here. Many were fear full that if they became any more popular or stronger, that they would make their way to the Mareizona... during this time, none of the factions were really present. The N.P.L. were so small, basically nothing... what made you leave? Because of your wounds?"
  218. 06[00:30] * +Sour_Grape still has a hard time understanding whats so bad about Dune. Maybe everypony is just too picky."
  219. 01[00:31] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Sagittis is quick and silent as the very shadows of the night. Even with his outfit. How /does/ one be able to sneak well with such burgeoning gear? Carefully, that's how.
  220. 06[00:32] * +Slag_Heap shakes his head. "No, not because of my wounds. Because I fell in love with a slave, bought her out, left, and married her. It didn't last though, we split up a good ten years ago. Over those years, I kinda lost everything. My favourite gun, the armour that got me through hundreds of battles, and... well, my mane." He smirks. "I really miss my mane..."
  221. 01[00:32] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Morph Enos replies to Sour_Grape, "I find the offer quite generous in your favor, though I will regard it as a bundle deal. Perhaps you may dwell on my words and realize the truth... or simply wake up... and believe... whatever you want to believe."
  222. 06[00:33] * +Sour_Grape stares at Morpheus. "You're fuckin' weird."
  223. 06[00:33] * +Roy_Calbeck looks around at himself. Wiggling his butt, it feels like his pack is a little lighter, though he made sure as usual to check it for radscorps and stolen stuff before putting it on. Was his tail... shinier? Cleaner-looking? Neater? A flip this way, then that, seemed to confirm it was all three.
  224. 06[00:34] * +Roy_Calbeck finally shrugs to himself and nods towards the water bottles. "I'll take all three."
  225. 01[00:34] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 A drunken mare laying in the middle of the area near Roy_Calbeck woos loudly in her drunken slurr at the handsome stallion, raising a hoof with a half-consumed whiskey bottle gripped by the neck with a fetlock. Shake it Cal!
  226. 01[00:34] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 The merchant exchanges the caps to Roy_Calbeck for 90 caps.
  227. 06[00:35] * +Sagittis slinks his way to the Sugar house and watches for ponies in nice outfits leaving or guards going off on their own.
  228. 06[00:35] * +Dust_Off lifts the finished Railway Rifle into the triumphantly. "Eureka! I've made it...and have no ammo." the mare curses.
  229. 01[00:35] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Sagittis finds himself in the Sugar District, the water treatment plant, the Sugar Top manor in sight, with the all-too-familiar medical clinic infront of him. Across the street that one shady chem joint..
  230. 06[00:35] * +Sour_Grape looks over at Dust_Off, "What is that... and what ammo ya need?"
  231. 06[00:36] * +Sagittis finds a nice ally with a view and waits.
  232. 01[00:37] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Jasmine Petal blinks and replies, "You... purchased a slave? That is... quite noble of you Mr. Heap. I am surprised she left you. Of all those things you've lost... what do you miss the most?"
  233. 06[00:37] * +Roy_Calbeck hoofs over the cash, then heads back to the Wheel for lack of anything better to do.
  234. 06[00:38] * +Roy_Calbeck gives the drunk mare a wink and a final flankshake on his way past.
  235. 06[00:39] * +Slag_Heap pats his head. "Probably my mane." He chuckles, then sighs. "Nah, in all seriousness, I missed my wife." He smiles again. "But ten years have passed and she's probably got herself a nice family by now. I hope so at least. Nowadays, I just miss what I was." He leans back a little. "But that's enough about me, tell me about you. Not that often that I get to talk to a beautiful mare such as yourself."
  236. 02[00:39] * @Strobe ([email protected]) Quit (Quit: ChatZilla 0.9.89 [Firefox 17.0.1/20121128204232])
  237. 01[00:40] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Sagittis sees going up the road a patrol of two Sugar family guards in their tan armor trotting down the road. Quickly the zebra buck hides behind a mass of rocks, hunching down low and using the night as a great source of cover, as they are completely oblivious to his advance. The front gate, being a set of four massively thick bus carriage doors with a guard tower with a spotlight behind it, roving around in a simple pattern. Going from the front to the yard and then to the sides, then repeating. The front has another set of two guards infront of it, then a large scrap metal wall, fairly high, about a full stallion size and a half tall, encompasing the entire yard surrounding the Sugar Tower.
  238. 06[00:43] * +Dust_Off hoofs the rifle over to Sour_Grape. "It's called a Railway Rifle. It fires railroad spikes at things at high velocity. The schematics were filled with mad ravings about pinning legs and tails to things. I'm not sure that it'd work, but getting a heavy metal spike embedded anywhere would be concerning. The mundane nature of the ammunition may make...
  239. [00:43] <+Dust_Off> ...it more affordable because no one else has a real use for railroad spikes."
  240. 06[00:44] * +Sour_Grape looks over at The Matrix, "Hey! Ya got any spikey's." Then turns back to Dust, "Do you think Dune's a bad place'a live too?"
  241. 06[00:45] * +Sagittis takes note of this and continues to wait for a lone guard or wealthy pony to come out.
  242. 01[00:46] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Roy_Calbeck makes his way back into the Broken Carriage wheel, seeing a waiter come back with incredibly nice smelling soup... salted carrots, mixed with hay, pieces of bread, and onions. The broth having a garlic-y scent to it. Two bottles of pure water get set before Slag_Heap and Jasmine Petal with the waiter smiling and saying, "Enjoy." before leaving. The exotic dancer nods to back and very /carefully/ moves her veil only slightly so she can consume her soup. Obvious that she didn't want the cyber stallion to view her full face. After taking a bite she says in her... husky, lower than average tone, "It is very delicious." chuckling a little to his words, she adds, "You are not dead however. And I must say, I do not wish you to be exactly the stallion you once were. I believe you should become better than him. Perhaps maybe you already are and do not realize it." Sighing she then looks down and speaks in a sadder tone, "It is... not very happy. My... father... was not very happy with me... my mother... barely acknowledged me. She saw me more as something that was simply there... fufilling a duty to not disrespect our culture."
  243. 06[00:48] * +Slag_Heap smiles. "That's very nice of you to say. I guess I hope so too." He sips his broth. Damn, it was good! He frowns slightly at her words. "That's harsh. Wouldn't wish that one anypony." He sips his water. "So how did you end up here?" he asks, changing the subject.
  244. 06[00:48] * +Roy_Calbeck inhales deeply, giving a soft little moan of pleasure at the soup's scent. He finds himself a table --- still away from the two in their conversation --- and signals a waiter.
  245. 01[00:48] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Morph Enos looks back to Sour_Grape and replies, "If by Spikeys you are speaking of Railway spikes, then... yes... Dune was once a trainyard long ago before the megaspells dropped." Turning to the back he suddenly bellows out, "ZERO! HEAR ME! I NEED OUR RAILWAY SPIKES!" then turns back to the three mares and replies sheepishly, "Forgive me... Zero is quite old and hard of hearing."
  246. 06[00:49] * +Sour_Grape winces from the yelling, "Right, gotcha."
  247. 01[00:51] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Sagittis finds to his frustration that the pattern keeps up for the moment... however a lesson he rememberd his father speaking to him, urging him for patience, as a true warrior knows the right time to make their move.
  248. 01[00:52] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 A frail unicorn stallion, very elderly comes out with a bent cane and squints at the group, using his magic to levitate a large bundle of railway spikes, "Eh? Spikes you said right? Morph?" Morph Enos nods and smiles, "Thank you Zero. I would be completely lost without your aid." turning back to the group he says .30 caps per spike."
  249. 06[00:53] * +Sour_Grape raises her eyebrow and tries to count all the spikes he has, then gives up. "How many?"
  250. 06[00:54] * +Dust_Off looks at the weird bald pony. Bald ponies are weird...Dusty looks to Grape, "I'm..." She closes her eyes. "Yes, Dune is a bad place to live. It's as the Families says and as they say goes. Drugs, slavery...the lot of it..and only forces capable of deciding matters or upholding morality are the Families own guards."
  251. 06[00:54] * +Sagittis does his damnedest to remain patient. Focus is key.
  252. 06[00:56] * +Sour_Grape nods at Dust_Off, "But slavery's illegal an' was easy 'nough ta stop, weren't it? And sure there's drugs, but at least... I mean there's so much food here! And walls, an' nobody always tryin' jack yer shit. It's so clean too."
  253. 01[00:58] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Jasmine Petal sighs and replies to Slag_Heap some more as she occassionaly eats her food and sips her water, "When I grew up... and I became more suited to help around our home at the time... we were attacked by raiders, north of here. I... I saw my mother get shot and started bleeding badly. My father told me to run and make sure my mother lived... but I am not very good at medicine and she was very badly hurt. She... She died before me and that was when I gave into my grief. Though she did not love me as much as a mother should... I still loved her and yearned for her affection. Which she finally gave to me right... right before she died. I took our family's scimitar and snuck out around the back, then took the remaining raiders by surprise." Sighing harder and going misty-eyed she adds, "After that... we moved, no longer finding our home safe. So we came here to make sure we were safe."
  254. 02[00:58] * Karina ([email protected]) Quit (Quit: )
  255. 01[00:59] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 A waiter mare, the one that Slag_Heap had inadvertantly signaled approaches Roy_Calbeck asking the stallion for his order.
  256. 06[01:00] * +Dust_Off glances at Grape. "They haven't tried to 'jack our shit' because we're better legged (?) than most of the guards. And slavery is 'illegal' but still persisted. No, this city needs something more than an oligarchical anarchy."
  257. 06[01:02] * +Sour_Grape rolls her eyes, "An yeah it persisted, but we totally stopped that and could do again. And I ain't heard sotries of shit bein' taken unrightly er whatever, so ah don't think it jus' cause we're scary lookin'. Else someone would have least tried ann' put as to tha test. I dunno. Ah jus' think ya'll are too critical-like."
  258. 06[01:03] * +Roy_Calbeck points a hoof towards Slag and the Arabian mare. "I'll have what they're havin'. Jus' th' soup, that is."
  259. 01[01:04] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Sagittis sees perhaps the break he's waiting for as one of the guards patrolling the road trots down near the zebra colts location dancing about strangely in place and saying with strain in her voice, "Aww damn it, Snarks, I gotta piss like a racehorse. Can you keep patrol?" The other mare gives an annoyed, exasperated sigh then says, "Hurry up... I told you to use the damn toilet before our shift, idiot!"
  260. 06[01:05] * +Slag_Heap sighs. "That's a terrible story, ma'am. My parents died a long time ago. KIA, as they said in the army." He sips his water. "It takes a lot of courage to do what you did. I never knew your mother, but I bet she would have been proud that you'd stick up for family."
  261. 01[01:05] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 The waiter mare glances over at Slag_Heap and his date then nods and smiles back to Roy_Calbeck speaking, "Coming right up sir." then turns away and goes to get his order.
  262. 01[01:06] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Morph Enos replies to Sour_Grape, how does he keep missing /her/ questions? Must be her incredibly short size, "We have quite a bit, probably more than you could afford to deplete our stockpile."
  263. 06[01:06] * +Sour_Grape nods at whatshisface and says to Dust_Off, "How many should ya want?"
  264. 06[01:07] * +Sagittis grins and stalks the mare to whatever back ally she was going to use.
  265. 06[01:07] * +Dust_Off sighs, "Maybe you're right." She turns back to Morph Enos. "Can you repair these?" She shows the over qualified mechanic the Advanced Recon bardings (10 & 25). She looks at Grape again. "Your rifle. It has a magazine capacity of eight spikes."
  266. 06[01:08] * +Sour_Grape blinks, "Yer givin' it ta me? Sweet! This'll be fin. I'll take, less say, fifty?" She then says, "Ah dunno, i'm probably wrong! If everyone says it's shitty maybe it is."
  267. 01[01:12] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Morph Enos nods to Dust_Off replying I can repair up to a certain degree, repairing not being my strong suit in life. It will cost you 944 caps for the more damaged recon barding (10) and the lesser damaged recon barding 663 caps.
  268. 03[01:13] * Kashin ([email protected]) has joined #FalloutEquestriaPNP
  269. 06[01:14] * +Sour_Grape pays 15 caps for the railway spikes
  270. 01[01:14] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 The guard mare leaving 'Snarks' makes her way towards the medical clinic, Sagittis sees she's rather fast paced as she's in a hurry. There is an opportunity to do underhoofed activities as alleys pass.
  271. 02[01:14] * +Sagittis ([email protected]) Quit (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)
  272. 12[01:14] * Kashin is now known as Sagittis
  273. 07[01:14] * SilentBrony|GM sets mode: +v Sagittis
  274. 06[01:16] * +Dust_Off contemplates the purchase. "Grape, take these combat armors (55 and 73) and these plasma pistols (75 and 52), and see what you can do about getting these repairs for advanced recon armors."
  275. 06[01:17] * +Sagittis waits for her to stop. If she does not, he will wait for her to pass back around and grabs a bottle in his fetlock.
  276. 06[01:17] * +Sagittis also loks for a near by dumpster.
  277. 03[01:18] * Fridge ([email protected]) has joined #FalloutEquestriaPNP
  278. 12[01:18] * Fridge is now known as Pony_655
  279. 01[01:19] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Coming back with Roy_Calbeck's order, the waiter mare places the nicely smelling soup before the handsome stallion and smiles saying, "Enjoy." then leaves. Jasmine Petal softens her expression and very carefully uses a fetlock to dry the moisture from her eyes replying to Slag_Heap, "I would hope she would... my father... I am sure still does not." The waiter stallion arrives to give Slag_Heap the bill, both dishes and waters would be a combined total of 90 caps.
  280. 12[01:20] * Pony_655 is now known as notFridge
  281. 01[01:21] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 The guard mare looks like she's not going to be able to hold it, as she inexplicibly stops, giving Sagittis time to catch up to her. However she simply makes a small whimper and continues on the same path.
  282. 06[01:21] * +Slag_Heap frowns deeply. He looks at the waiter. "Thanks." he fishes out 90 caps and hands them over. He looks at Jasmine. "Your father is wrong. If he isn't damn proud of you, then he doesn't deserve to be your father." He softens his expression. "Sorry... getting ahead of myself."
  283. 06[01:22] * +Roy_Calbeck takes a deep sniff of the soup, savoring its aroma before levitating the spoon to his lips for a sip. "Ahhh...."
  284. 06[01:22] * +Sagittis keeps following as quietly as he can. If she goes into a building, he will slink into the nearest ally.
  285. 06[01:23] * +Sour_Grape nods at Dust and says to Mouse, "So, if ah use this shit, how much less will the repairin' cost?'
  286. 01[01:24] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 The guard mare makes her way into the medical clinic, much to Sagittis' frustration... thankfully an alleyway on the presumed return wasn't far by from the entrance.
  287. 06[01:24] * +Roy_Calbeck restrains himself, sipping the soup instead of wolfing it down, intent on enjoying every drop.
  288. 06[01:28] * +Sagittis makes sure he has some cover like a dumpster or cardboard box to hide behind. He also takes the spare suit of armor out of his packs and stuffs them with trash and debris further down the hall so it may pass as a body in the dark.
  289. 01[01:29] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Mous-- Morph Enos responds to Sour_Grape that the 73 conditioned combat barding will give her essentially 346 caps, and the 55 conditioned combat barding will give 261 caps back. Total of 607 caps. The 75 conditioned plasma pistol will be 296 caps back, with the 52 conditioned plasma pistol giving back 205 caps, a total between those two for 501 caps. The grand total sum being 1108 caps. more than enough to repair one of either armors and then some change.
  290. 06[01:31] * +Sour_Grape tries to understand what was just said, "You wanted both, right Dusty?'
  291. 06[01:34] * +Dust_Off nods. "Yes, Sagittis..." She stops for a moment, " and I would like them...I would give you this suit." That being her vanilla recon barding. No really, it's vanilla colored. So stylish...maybe I'm kidding.
  292. 06[01:35] * +Roy_Calbeck makes little noises of happiness as he works his way through the salty, carroty, garlic-tinged bowl of delicious.
  293. 06[01:35] * +Sour_Grape tilts her head, "Ah'm not sagi. Here's a tip if ya get confused, he's taller with a stick up his ass."
  294. 01[01:35] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Roy_Calbeck finds the soup /delectable/ that chef really knew his stuff! Jasmine Petal nods slowly, finally finishing her meal... down to the last drop along with the water... wow, "He... still raised me, protected me, gave me food and taught me what I needed to know to survive. Even if.. I did not have his love, he gave me everything else a father should. Even if... he did it because our culture would frown upon him not taking care of a child. I... I am fortunate enough to have that at least." sighing a little she looks at the Cyberstallion and replies, "Seems... we both are at a loss for love."
  295. 06[01:36] * +Roy_Calbeck almost seems to exude little magical bubbles of heart-shaped pleasure.
  296. 06[01:38] * +Slag_Heap sighs and nods. "Don't have to tell me twice. Its been a long, longesome road for this soldier." He finishes his meal and looks at Jasmine. The old stallion smiles, staring into her eyes. Gawrsh, they were purty.
  297. 06[01:39] * +Slag_Heap "Maybe we can change that, Jasmine. Maybe I could take you out again sometime? Enjoy an night on the town, that sort of thing."
  298. 01[01:39] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Sagittis eventually sees the guard mare exiting the front door of the medicial clinic, looking very much relieved. She makes her way up the street in his direction, not noticing him as she looks from the darkened alleyway.
  299. 01[01:42] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 The waiter mare returns as well to Roy_Calbeck's table, giving the stallion his bill, being 15 caps. Jasmine Petal seems to soften her expression as she returns his gaze with her own golden hued eyes. The mascara and glitter accenting them quite well. "Mr. Heap... I think it is time that I take my leave. I did enjoy this night though, beyond the inital confusion we had. Perhaps we could discuss more in the future?"
  300. 06[01:42] * +Sagittis throws the bottle at the armor pile and calls out, warping his voice a bit. "Help! I'm being mugged!" Then he slinks back into his cover, waiting for the mare to go investigate the armor and the noise.
  301. 06[01:42] * +Roy_Calbeck is so happy with his meal, he leaves 25 caps on the table, nodding to the waiter mare with a smile.
  302. 06[01:42] * +Slag_Heap nods and stands up, getting out of the booth. "If I may, I'd like to walk you home."
  303. 06[01:42] * +Dust_Off blinks at Sour_Grape, "I never said...nevermind."
  304. 01[01:43] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 The guard mare jerks at the loud sudden noise and screaming, pulling out her weapon. Rushing up to the entrance of the alleyway, she stops and looks around initally then begins to stalk down it slowly, completely unaware of Sagittis' presence as she trots very close to him at a certain point.
  305. 06[01:44] * +Sour_Grape "hey Morph, are ya listenin? Dust asked ya a question."
  306. 01[01:44] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 The waiter mare blinks at the gratiuity and smiles wider at the handsome stallion speaking with a noticably bubblier charm, "Why thank you sir. Please come back anytime." collecting her tip from Roy_Calbeck, she shashays away from his table, swaying her curled tail about.
  307. 06[01:44] * +Sagittis slinks behind her, waiting for an opportunity to knock her out with a sleeper hold or something.
  308. 06[01:45] * +Roy_Calbeck widens his smile at the display. "If I can, I will..."
  309. 01[01:46] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Jasmine Petal looks... uncertain at first flattening her ears and looking the stallion over, "I.... am not sure Mr. Heap. Please do not be insulted, but Dune is quite dangerous itself. It hides many hidden dangers that lurk within the shadows... ready to throw bottles to gain the attention of unsuspecting ponies then subdue them and use them for their own goals." Err okay that was a weird analogy.
  310. 06[01:47] * +Roy_Calbeck notices Slag and his date getting ready to leave, and decides to wait before he gets up to go outside himself.
  311. 06[01:47] * +Roy_Calbeck doesn't want to interrupt the pair.
  312. 06[01:47] * +Dust_Off waits for the filly and the baldy to finish the repair and such.
  313. 06[01:48] * +Slag_Heap nods. "I know it is. That won't stop me wanting to escort you home, if you'll let me. I'll sleep a lot easier knowing you're safe."
  314. 01[01:51] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Sagittis with his incredible stealth abilities manages to leap up with his abnormal colt size and wrap a very strong and effective sleeper hold on the mare, wrapping his fetlocks around her mouth to surpress her startled cries, dropping her weapon in the process, but thankfully it doesn't discharge as it clatters to the ground. Struggling fiercely with the buck, her efforts are in vain as she slowly looses consciousness and slumps in the zebra colt's hold.
  315. 06[01:52] * +Sagittis sets the mare down and goes through her things, especially looking for keys or a map.
  316. 06[01:54] * +Sour_Grape "Right, anyway. Dusty is confusing me. All this to repair both, and lets say 350 to cover the extra bits?"
  317. 01[01:59] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Sagittis finds a shopping cart with a couple of blankets inside. Resting on the blanket is a full bottle of vodka! The guard mare has about 20 caps, a full magazine of 5.56mm rounds (30) and a key ring with three keys on it.
  318. 01[02:01] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Morph Enos agrees to Sour_Grape's offer. Such a silver tongued devil! Taking the items offered as well as only 350 caps, instead of the full amount.
  319. 01[02:01] <@SilentBrony|GM> 
  320. 06[02:01] * +Sour_Grape looks at Dust, "Sorry that took so long, ain't used'ta doin' tuff so complicated. Lotsa mathy stuff hadd'a be done."
  321. 06[02:02] * +Sagittis rubs his chin, gathering up the mare's gun and gear, including her armor. It may be useful later. He wonders if the cart would be better to take with them, or being used to deliver the mare to the clinic.
  322. 01[02:02] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Jasmine shakes her head to Slag_Heap saying, "As much as I appreciate your concern Mr. Heap, I can take care of myself. The thought is sweet though... perhaps once we get to know each other enough, then I will be comfortable with such a gesture." the mare gazes to the stallion for his response.
  323. 01[02:03] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Sagittis notes the mare has an assault rifle of below average conditioning, though it /does/ also have a decal on the side bearing the Sugar family insignia.
  324. 06[02:04] * +Slag_Heap smiles and nods. "If that's what you want, I'll leave you to it." He looks around for a breif moment. "Hey, listen, I'm moving out again tomorrow morning, don't think I should give the details. Next time I'm back would you like to do something together? Grab a drink, or dinner again?"
  325. 06[02:05] * +Dust_Off smiles at the little filly, "You did great, wingie. Let's go. I'm done here." She looks over at Sweet Melody. "Ready?" She takes the advanced recon armor and changes out of the her old vanilla recon armor. Gasp, she still had that naughty lingerie on.
  326. 06[02:06] * +Roy_Calbeck casually watches the two, out of the corner of his eye so as not to stare, smiling.
  327. 06[02:06] * +Sour_Grape rolls her eyes at the underwear but says nothing, "Where's Stripey anyway? Or are we meetin' him sumwhere."
  328. 06[02:06] * +Sagittis looks to see if there is anypony in the street by the clinic.
  329. 01[02:07] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Jasmine seems to be smiling, as her tone sounds upbeat, replying in her husky, voice, "I would like such a thing. When you return, just speak to the front desk of my place of employment. If you tip them, I may get an extra break."
  330. 01[02:08] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Sagittis notes there's still quite a bit of ponies in the streets in his present location. Damn this thriving city.
  331. 01[02:08] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Sweet Melody speaks, "I don't mind as long as we're still planning on leaving. Just let me know when, so I can get... get my sister."
  332. 06[02:10] * +Slag_Heap smiles widely and nods. "I'll do that then." He bows politely.
  333. 06[02:11] * +Sagittis grumbles and looks around a moment before dumping the mare in the shopping cart with both suits of armor and a good chunk of his other heavy stuff before draping the blanket over it all, putting some bottles and cans on the top and wheels himself back to the Wheel. He couldn't leave her hear safely and there were too many ponies to dump her by the clinic door.
  334. 06[02:12] * +Roy_Calbeck waits until Jasmine leaves, then trots back outside for a little ponywatching until it's time to leave.
  335. 01[02:13] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Jasmine Petal looks at Slag_Heap for a moment longer, obviously smiling even under her face veil as she speaks with a tinge of happiness, "Good bye Mr. Heap. I look forward to our next meeting." turning, her solid sheet of black tail is bundled neatly in a cascading gold net with intricate tassles hanging off of it, poking out of her gown and swishing about as she leaves.
  336. 06[02:14] * +Slag_Heap smiles as he watches her leave. "Call me Slag." he says as she does so. He smiles widely.
  337. 06[02:16] * +Roy_Calbeck sighs once he's outside, having waited for the two to have their moment and giving them a bit of space to avoid ruining it. "Nice t'see some ponies are makin' a decent go of things in th' Mareizona," the unicorn mutters to himself.
  338. 01[02:16] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Sweet Melody nods to Dust_Off and blinks at her outfit, then looks about, "Uhm yeah... sure." frowning a little.
  339. 06[02:16] * +Dust_Off nods, "Let's go back to the Wheel." The mare's spirit loses what it'd gained in making the rail way rifle. She's not looking forward to seeing Sagittis
  340. 01[02:16] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Morph Enos just stares and Zero... as elderly as he is... well let's say... he ain't /that/ old to not notice.
  341. 06[02:17] * +Sour_Grape jumps back on Dust_Off's back, "Ya never did tell me what was wrong, don't'cha'know."
  342. 06[02:17] * +Sagittis wheels the mare filled cart into the wheel and pills it to the stairs, looking for an out of the way corner.
  343. 06[02:17] * +Slag_Heap sighs to himself after she's gone. He waits a few moments, then trots outside. He looks up at the sky and smiles once more.
  344. 06[02:18] * +Roy_Calbeck blinks as Sagittis passes him at the door... with a shopping cart. The colt hadn't been kidding.
  345. 06[02:19] * +Slag_Heap spots Roy_Calbeck and walks over. "Hey Roy. Nice night." He pulls out a cigar. Then pulls out another, offering it to the stallion.
  346. 06[02:20] * +Roy_Calbeck nods, accepting the stogie with a wrapping sheath of soft white light. "Yeah, it is. Congrats. Looked like you two were havin' a pretty good time there."
  347. 06[02:21] * +Slag_Heap pulls out his lighter and lights his friend's cigar, then his own. "Yeah." He gives him a friendly puch on the shoulder. "Roy old chum, I think I'm in love." he chuckles and looks up again.
  348. 01[02:21] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Sagittis makes his way back to the Broken Carriage wheel with his shopping cart and subdued guard mare inside. Jasmine Petal was seen leaving and making her way towards the Sugar District... possibly? Along the way the zebra flufflecolt manages to spot the red exotic mare, making her way through the streets, not paying the colt any mind. Dust_Off and Sour_Grape, along with Sweet Melody manage to make their way back as well... along the way, many many many ponies stop and gawk at the pegasexy mare. Sweet Melody looks very unamused as she travels with the other two.
  349. 06[02:22] * +Roy_Calbeck laughs, grinning at the balding trooper. "Poor bastard."
  350. 06[02:23] * +Sagittis smiles when he sees Melody. "Ah, just the mare I was hoping to see." He waves at the others in turn.
  351. 06[02:23] * +Roy_Calbeck takes a series of short puffs to get the cigar lit, then leans back against the wall to relax with the first good smoke he can remember in an age.
  352. 01[02:23] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Dust_Off didn't actually get as many stares. Not /as/ many. Of course a couple ponies that pass by close to her do swivel their heads to admire the mare as she passes. Sweet Melody doesn't have her unamused expression.
  353. 06[02:23] * +Slag_Heap laughs too. "Heh, yeah."
  354. 06[02:24] * +Roy_Calbeck looks up at the sky. "Well, can't think of many folks whose luck wasn't due fer a decent change."
  355. 06[02:26] * +Slag_Heap puffs his own cigar. "Damn good cigars..." he exhales a long plume of smoke. "Think I might have a supplier... or maybe sour can get me them cheaper..." he looks at Roy_Calbeck. "Amen, brother. Was getting real bored with the monotony. Then regretted the change when we all went insane." he chuckles and sighs. "Still. Things are looking up for old Slag."
  356. 06[02:26] * +Dust_Off looks back at Sour, "I-I told Sagittis where I came from."
  357. 06[02:26] * +Sour_Grape raises an eyebrow, "So? Where'd ya come from, an why does he even care."
  358. 06[02:26] * +Roy_Calbeck nods, exhaling a plume of grey from his nostrils. "Let's hope it holds like that."
  359. 06[02:28] * +Slag_Heap chuckles. "Hey, what's the worst that could... nevermind..."
  360. 06[02:28] * +Roy_Calbeck grins wider, poking Slag in the side. "Nice catch."
  361. 06[02:28] * +Dust_Off looks around to see if anyone else was listening.
  362. 01[02:29] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Sweet Melody looks over at Dust_Off for a moment, but decides it's none of her business, turning to focus on the path before them.
  363. 06[02:29] * +Slag_Heap grins too. "I know, right." he pokes Roy right back. "Who'd have thought?"
  364. 06[02:30] * +Roy_Calbeck nods, turning his gaze down the street while waiting for the Captain and Quartermaster to arrive.
  365. 06[02:31] * +Slag_Heap gives a tiny wave to the two.
  366. 06[02:31] * +Slag_Heap is smiling happily.
  367. 06[02:32] * +Sagittis does not call to Melody as she is not back yet. He looks over to Roy_Calbeck and Slag_Heap, waffling on telling them what he picked up while... 'Shopping'.
  368. 06[02:32] * +Dust_Off seeing that no_one was listening. The mare sighs, "I'm Enclave, was, Grape."
  369. 01[02:33] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Sweet Melody blinks and pauses for a brief moment... then continues.
  370. 06[02:33] * +Roy_Calbeck doesn't seem to notice Sagi's pensiveness, being focused in exactly the opposite direction.
  371. 06[02:33] * +Sour_Grape nods slowly, "Oh yeah. Ah sorta assumed tha way ya talked for an' stuff, same like the pegasi bitches round here right? So whats tha big deal?"
  372. 06[02:33] * +Slag_Heap isn't very perceptive at all.
  373. 06[02:37] * +Slag_Heap puffs his cigar and spots Sagittis and his cart. "Hey kid." he says with a smile. "You've been busy."
  374. 06[02:38] * +Sagittis grins and nods. "I have at that. Good haul tonight." He is slightly nervous of his cart breathing, but he hopes the pile of bottles and blanket would hide the worst of it.
  375. 06[02:38] * +Roy_Calbeck looks back at the cart again, then cracks a smile. "Plannin' on pushing that all th' way t'Glassy Flats, huh?"
  376. 06[02:39] * +Dust_Off blinks at the filly. That was surprisingly tolerant....and from Sour_Grape...the mare blinks. "Well, some time ago, The Enclave strip mined Sagittis's home. He has a right to hate us...them..the Enclave. And I joined them so me too."
  377. 06[02:39] * +Slag_Heap isn't very perceptive. "So what'd you get?"
  378. 01[02:41] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Sweet Melody looks a little conflicted but continues onward.
  379. 06[02:41] * +Sour_Grape pffts, "Oh fucking boo-hoo. Did you personally strip his home? if not he can take his fucking anger and shove it up his sheath. Ya can't be held responsible fer everythin' someone yer associated with does."
  380. 06[02:43] * +Sagittis nod to Roy_Calbeck. "Minus one or two large items, yes." He chucles. Well they would find out eventually. He waves the two over.
  381. [02:44] <+Sagittis> chuckles*
  382. 06[02:44] * +Dust_Off blinks, "Well, yes. I mean he might be right...probably is...we heard Griffons ate our scouts when they tried to negotiate. So who knows...but he is right I didn't do anything to really stop the Enclave, not until they killed my Sandy...and then I dove away."
  383. 06[02:45] * +Slag_Heap chuckles. "Have fun pushing it through the sand."
  384. 06[02:45] * +Roy_Calbeck raises an eyebrow, but goes to see what Sagi's talking about.
  385. 06[02:45] * +Roy_Calbeck asides to the big cyberpony, "Hey Slag, keep an eye out for the Cap an' Quartermaster, willya?"
  386. 06[02:46] * +Sour_Grape rolls her eyes, "Whatever. That's just fuckin' dumb, ain't like ya did it or ordered it. He can't hold ya responsible fer what ya didn't do. Maybe if folk stopped gettin' o hung up on shit like that the wasteland would stop bein' so wastey."
  387. 06[02:46] * +Slag_Heap nods. "Sure thing." He keeps an eye out.
  388. 06[02:47] * +Sagittis makes sure nopony else is looking and lifts the blanket to show Roy_Calbeck the unconscious mare wedged between the two suits of armor.
  389. 01[02:47] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Sweet Melody looks between the pegasus filly and mare as they speak, looking more and more conflicted. Still though she remains silent as a statue. Only making the plodding of hooves against the compact dusty ground beneath the trio.
  390. 06[02:48] * +Slag_Heap leans against the wall, enjoying his cigar.
  391. 06[02:49] * +Roy_Calbeck stops. Takes a slow puff on his stogie. Holds it. Exhales after a moment. Looks at Sagittis. "Colt, what th' fuck?"
  392. 01[02:49] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 The guard mare is still quite unconscious... she almost looks like she's not even breathing.
  393. 06[02:50] * +Sagittis covers his nose and puts the blanket back down, clearly irritated at the rank smoke. "Sugar guard."
  394. 06[02:50] * +Dust_Off opens her mouth and closes it, looking at the sudden wise filly. She stops and looks at Sweet Melody. "Yes?"
  395. 06[02:50] * +Roy_Calbeck peers closer, before the blanket comes down. "Dead, huh? What happened?"
  396. 06[02:51] * +Sour_Grape is either wise, or doesn't really understand guilt by association and other tricky morality problems because she's a bit of an idiot.
  397. 06[02:51] * +Sagittis snorts. "Naw. She is just sleeping, but I got keys and a uniform... Oh, and this nice shopping cart."
  398. 06[02:52] * +Roy_Calbeck looks around to see if anypony is watching, then stubs out the cigar and stows the remnant... best not to draw any unnecessary attention. "Well, she looked like she wasn't breathin'."
  399. 06[02:53] * +Sagittis "Then I did my job well... Oh, to avoid suspicion: Would you like the big suit of armor?"
  400. 06[02:53] * +Roy_Calbeck thinks about it for a moment, then nods. "Depends on th' armor, of course, but not likely gonna turn it down."
  401. [02:54] <+Roy_Calbeck> "Y'mean that nasty set ya dragged off that sumbich up at th' Hollow?"
  402. 06[02:54] * +Sagittis pulls out the 14 DT 10% DR, +5 To melee, -10 Speech armor. "Here you go. Enjoy."
  403. 01[02:55] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Sweet Melody looks over at Dust_Off and shakes her head, "Uhh nothing ma'am."
  404. 06[02:55] * +Roy_Calbeck looks it over, nods, and packs it into his bags. How DO those saddlebags hold SO MUCH? "Much appreciated."
  405. 01[02:56] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Maybe saddlebags acted like minature TARDIS...IS...? Just without the time traveling aspect... or any of the other perks to them.
  406. 06[02:57] * +Roy_Calbeck turns back to the cart. "So, what's yer move here then? Why a Sugar guard?"
  407. 01[02:57] <@SilentBrony|GM> Sagittis now looks very creepy... similar to that hulking monstrosity, just striped and with massive weapons.
  408. 06[02:57] * +Dust_Off shakes her head at Melody. She looks back to Sour_Grape. "Let's go. And thanks, Grape. I need to talk to him again." She turns to finish the last bit of the way to the Inn. "I won't let him talk bad about my family."
  409. 06[02:58] * +Sagittis pus the sheet back down. "Just need to wait for Melody for some mild disposal and we are good." Sagittis is not wearing the armor. He gave it to Roy_Calbeck.
  410. 06[02:58] * +Sour_Grape blinks at that part. Normally she'd suggest shooting him in the eye for that, but not with melody here.
  411. 06[02:58] * +Roy_Calbeck looks at the zebra colt questioningly. "Good fer what?"
  412. 01[02:59] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 The three amigos are with the other three derpmigos.
  413. 06[02:59] * +Sagittis tilts his head at Roy. "Good to go back to Glassy Flats. Cooler at night you know."
  414. 06[03:00] * +Roy_Calbeck points to the cart, trying not to make it terribly obvious. "Why did you bonk a Sugar guard? Just fer some free armor?"
  415. [03:02] <+Roy_Calbeck> "An' keys to what? What's yer play here?"
  416. 06[03:02] * +Sagittis groans and rolls his eyes. "No, you ninnyhammer. The Sugars were the ones who Green sold us out to and the ones who were working with the slavers. We will need to address that sooner or later and I want to be ready when we do."
  417. 06[03:05] * +Roy_Calbeck pffts. "Okay, that's a new one. Filed fer reference. An' yeah, I know they were workin' with th' slavers an' such. It's nice yer proactive, but Dusty should be makin' calls as ta when we go after 'em. If they get tipped before we're ready t'move..."
  418. 06[03:07] * +Slag_Heap scratches his sideburns. "Wait, Green? We got a letter from someone who talked about a mare named Green."
  419. 06[03:08] * +Roy_Calbeck and Sagittis are in an alley near the Wheel, plotting around the mare-laden hulk of a shopping cart.
  420. 06[03:09] * +Roy_Calbeck peers under the blanket covering the cart again. "Sure she's still breathin'?"
  421. 06[03:10] * +Dust_Off walks into the Inn and looks around the Tavern. She sighs. "I guess we wait for them? Or just go on? What do you think, Sour_Grape?"
  422. 06[03:10] * +Slag_Heap is outside the wheel, keeping an eye out and enjoying his cigar. He spots Dust_Off and Sour_Grape head inside and nods politely
  423. 06[03:11] * +Sour_Grape "PRolly should wait ah guess."
  424. 06[03:11] * +Sagittis snorts at Roy_Calbeck. "I don't give two fucks about her self appointed authority. I'll handle this as I see fit. If you want to help, that is grand." He blinks over at Slag_Heap's amazing hearing. "Aw fuck. That cunt made it back alive?" He nods back to Roy_Calbeck. "Yeah. If she wasn't I would have just left her in the alley where I jumped her. I am hauling her around so she won't get...
  425. 06[03:11] * +Sagittis ...taken advantage of before she wakes up."
  426. 01[03:12] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Sagittis and Roy_Calbeck are in a nearby alleyway of the Broken Carriage Wheel. Slag_Heap is outside, near the front door of said establishment.
  427. 10[03:13] * Retrieving #FalloutEquestriaPNP modes...
  428. 06[03:13] * +Roy_Calbeck shrugs, turns, and walks away, heading into the Wheel and nodding to Slag. "See 'em yet?"
  429. 06[03:14] * +Slag_Heap extinguishes his cigar on the concrete and pockets it. Still about half left. He looks down the alley and nods at Roy_Calbeck. "Just headed inside." He himself heads inside and spots Sour_Grape and Dust_Off, and trots over. "Did you tell Dust about the letter, sour?"
  430. 06[03:14] * +Roy_Calbeck walks up and salutes Dust_Off. "We may have bigger trouble than a letter."
  431. 06[03:15] * +Slag_Heap looks at Roy. "What'd you do this time?"
  432. 06[03:15] * +Sour_Grape blinks at Slag, "Huh. Oh. There's a letter from Griffinface."
  433. 06[03:15] * +Roy_Calbeck snorts. "Our zebra colt went 'shopping', an' came back with a cartload of Sugar guard."
  434. 06[03:17] * +Slag_Heap blinks at Roy_Calbeck. "Wat."
  435. [03:18] <+Roy_Calbeck> "Oh, and weren't you lookin' t'get that big lug's armor from back in Spookytown?"
  436. 06[03:19] * +Roy_Calbeck flips open his saddlebags and gestures to the packed Barding of Evil. "Help yerself."
  437. 06[03:20] * +Dust_Off looks between Roy_Calbeck and Slag_Heap and Sagittis. She settles for glaring at Sagittis, "What the hell?"
  438. 06[03:20] * +Slag_Heap "The big lug... oh, that big lug." He picks it up. "Hm. Intimidating. Thanks." He puts it in his packs. Wow, they DID fit big things in them!
  439. 06[03:21] * +Sagittis is in a n alley, Dust_Off will need to come out to yell at him.
  440. 01[03:22] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Yes Sagittis is outside.
  441. 06[03:22] * +Roy_Calbeck pokes a hoof out the front door. "He's out there in th' alleyway. With th' cart."
  442. [03:22] <+Roy_Calbeck> "Be advised, he knows he's rogue on this an' doesn't care."
  443. 01[03:22] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Sweet Melody looks about inside with the other five looking about. Then tilts her head at Roy_Calbeck.
  444. 06[03:22] * +Sagittis is leaning against his cart looking quite pleased with himself.
  445. 06[03:23] * +Sour_Grape rolls her eyes, "This'll be fun on the bun. Melody, ya should prolly stay inside. Sorry 'bout all this."
  446. 01[03:24] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Melody blinks and shakes her head then asks Roy_Calbeck, "Is... the guard hurt?"
  447. 06[03:25] * +Roy_Calbeck looks to Melody, dipping his horn in polite greeting. "Unconscious. Sagi seems to be concerned for her health, so it's safe t'say she's in no immediate danger."
  448. 01[03:26] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Melody nods looking relieved then sits down and gives a little sigh mumbling as she rests her forelegs on the table, then her chin on said forelegs, "As long as we leave soon."
  449. 06[03:27] * +Roy_Calbeck nods. "Speakin' of which..." The blond unicorn goes to fetch Peach Nectar from his room.
  450. 01[03:28] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Roy_Calbeck returns upstairs to his room, seeing Peach Nectar rubbing her face slowly with a hoof, staring at the ground... looking very lost in thought... so lost she doesn't even seem to react to the stallions return.
  451. 01[03:28] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 She's summarily sitting on a bed
  452. 06[03:29] * +Dust_Off blinks, "What the hell do you think you're doing? That purely hypothetical what we were talking about, Sagittis!"
  453. 06[03:30] * +Slag_Heap looks at Melody. "Excuse me ma'am. About earlier, I'm sorry about what I said. I'm not a very smart stallion and lost my train of thought. What I meant to say is: Loss is a terrible thing, but what gets me through it is trying to live a life the fallen would be proud of. It helped me get through a lot of fallen friends, and I hope you can find some solace in it." He looks a little awkward and bows his head. He then heads
  454. 06[03:31] * +Roy_Calbeck walks over, sitting on the bed and turning to look at her. "We're gettin' ready t'go. You doin' okay?"
  455. 06[03:31] * +Sagittis assumes Dust_Off has gone outside and to his cart. "Being proactive. Getting some loot. Creating options. Venting. Take your pick blackwing."
  456. [03:31] <+Slag_Heap> He then heads for the door.
  457. 01[03:32] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Sweet Melody goes to say something but Slag_Heap leaves before given a chance to respond. The mare just blinks.
  458. 06[03:32] * +Dust_Off blink, "Blackwing?"
  459. 06[03:32] * +Sour_Grape presumably followed Dust_Off
  460. 06[03:32] * +Slag_Heap hasn't left yet. HE merely headed for the door. She can still catch him!
  461. 06[03:33] * +Sagittis shakes his head. "What the older zebras called Enclave. They weren't kind enough to really introduce themselves."
  462. 06[03:33] * +Sour_Grape looks between the two, "But she ain't enclave anymore numbnuts."
  463. 01[03:33] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Peach Nectar Juice finally snaps out of it when Roy_Calbeck sits on the bed, looking at the stallion with wide-eyes briefly, then blinks and says, "Uhh yeah... sorry. I... I was just thinking 'bout my life... and... uhhh.. how I'mma gonna live... it's..." she stops and sighs, adding with resignation in her tone, "nevermind..." perking up slightly she asks now, "Are we leaving?"
  464. 06[03:34] * +Slag_Heap thinks for a second. "Wait, forgot my gear." the old dosey stallion heads back for the stairs, passing Melody.
  465. 01[03:35] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Sweet Melody replies to Slag_Heap, "I wasn't really thinking too much... I think I heard you, but... I can't remember what you said. If I ignored you or something it wasn't on purpose... seeing my.... my sister like that... it was too much for me to think about... I'm still not looking forward to... getting her to Glassy Flats."
  466. 06[03:35] * +Sagittis snorts back at Sour_Grape. "And my nuts aren't numb. It is an insult."
  467. 06[03:35] * +Roy_Calbeck smiles, reaching out to trace Peach's cheek lightly with a hoof. "Yeah, we are. An' I'm glad yer thinkin' about it. That's maybe th' best thing you can do."
  468. 06[03:36] * +Sour_Grape "Weren't'cha the one banging on about racism fore?"
  469. 06[03:37] * +Sagittis "Enclave is an organization, not a race."
  470. 06[03:37] * +Slag_Heap nods at Melody. "Its okay, ma'am. What I ended up saying wasn't as much a benefit as what I just said. My condolences. The wastes take more than they give, that's for sure. If you need somepony to talk to, I'll be around. Celestia knows I've felt loss. Seen too many friends gunned down in my old age." He heads for the stairs. "Lemme just get my gear." and heads up.
  471. 06[03:37] * +Sour_Grape "An organization she's not even in still."
  472. 01[03:37] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Peach Nectar Juice feels the hoof and blushes faintly at the touch, casting her gaze away from Roy_Calbeck as she replies with a slightly higher pitched tone, "Uh-hhh y-yeah... I thought 'bout it lots... an'... I'm not foolin wit ya... I'm real scared... cause I've had it pretty damn good... and..." the earth pony mare gives a sad frown and hangs her head slightly, "I'mma huge bitch..."
  473. 01[03:38] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Sweet Melody nods to the cyberstallion and speaks back in a slightly quiet tone, "Thanks."
  474. 06[03:39] * +Roy_Calbeck snorts, chuckles, and gets off the bed. "I've known a lotta huge bitches in my life. Some were damned good ponies anyways. That's all really up t'you." He turns around to give Peach Nectar an even look. "But if there's one thing I hate, it's watchin' folks get used an' thrown away. That's a huge waste. So..."
  475. 06[03:39] * +Slag_Heap puts on his brand new armour while he's getting gear. Woo! He puts his old armour in his pack and looks himself in the mirror, putting on his battlesaddle. "Damn... I like it."
  476. 06[03:40] * +Roy_Calbeck looks away, seeming to have a little trouble getting this part out. "I hope you can pick up the pieces an' make somethin' better with yer life from here out. Fuckload o' folks never get that chance."
  477. 06[03:41] * +Slag_Heap comes back downstairs with his new armour and gear on.
  478. 06[03:41] * +Sagittis snorts. "She still chose to join them, after leariningl the horrors they did, were doing and would keep doing."
  479. 06[03:42] * +Sour_Grape "And who are you ta judge her for that? She had her fuckin' reasons. Are ya cleestia above ta cast judgement for shit you know nothing about?"
  480. 06[03:42] * +Slag_Heap doesn't have his mask on.
  481. 01[03:43] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Peach Nectar looks over Roy_Calbeck for a moment then nods slowly, with a small smile, replying quietly, "I.. I hope they'll... f-forgive me then..." the mare gets up from the bed and looks expectantly to the stallion.
  482. 06[03:44] * +Dust_Off stomps her hoof down. "That's enough, Sagittis! Yes, I joined. To save ponies. You hate the Enclave. I hate the Enclave, but they're my people. They're good ponies, mostly. And let's not forget YOUR people are not entirely virtuous."
  483. 06[03:44] * +Roy_Calbeck nods, then leads the way down. "Comin' to Glassy Flats, then?"
  484. 06[03:45] * +Sagittis "Anypony with a brain should be able to judge her with even simple logic. She healed monsters who slaughtered everypony who was not part of their organization, and even some o their own when they feel like it. Every one of them she healed would likely go in and kill ponies trying to fix things." He looks up at Dust_Off. "I don't recall joining the zebra legions and helping them butcher...
  485. 06[03:45] * +Sagittis ...innocents, do you?"
  486. 01[03:46] <@SilentBrony|GM> Peach Nectar Juice nods back to Roy_Calbeck, "Yea... if this place is as nice as ya make it out, then it's prolly better than any of tha other dive-- errr places I could go." she follows the stallion.
  487. 06[03:47] * +Roy_Calbeck looks back over his shoulder as the two enter the main room of the tavern. "Well, it's gotten better recently. We helped with that. Maybe you can help make it someplace more worthwhile too."
  488. 06[03:47] * +Sour_Grape rolls her eyes, "Wow ya must have fucking magic senses ta know what the ponies she healed did. But what would /you/ know about healing. You're not a healer, or a fixer, you're like me. A destroyer. And just cause ya kill them what ya think deserve it don't make ya good. It just makes you arrogant."
  489. 06[03:48] * +Sour_Grape "But if ya gotta be judgemental why not prject rage on Slag, he worked fer slavers. or roy and whatever army he was apart of. Or me, fer that matter. Ya just choose ta pick tha best'a us so you can feel better bout yerself."
  490. 06[03:50] * +Sagittis snorts and burst out laughing. "Best of us? How high are you right now?" He shakes his head. "How would you have reacted if I went off and helped that fiend in the Hollow. I made sure he had all the stuff he needed to torment ponies and kept his ghouls in good shape? Would that be all okay?"
  491. 06[03:51] * +Sour_Grape shrugs, "Nah man, I'dd have ta kill ya. But that'd be because yer fuckin' with me, an the two ain't even equal so don't try'ta pull that bullshit."
  492. 06[03:51] * +Sour_Grape adds quickly, "And even if ya did. I wouldn't hold it against'ya years after tha fact."
  493. 01[03:53] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Our Mareizona Irregulars... have had a rather productive day. Selling gear, completeing a new weapon, having a successful date, and preventing an addict from relapsing, and the beginnings of a masterwork plan potentially about to be set in motion that could alter the dynamics of the Dune settlement... neigh... the very fabric of the Mareizona itself. However it was not completely without it's own small measure of drama as now there seems to be more issues regarding past actions. We shall see what is to become of these events as they all play out in our next upcoming sessions of Star Group, Fallout Equestria!
  494. 01[03:53] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 ---------------------------------------------------------- SESSION 33 END --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  495. 06[03:53] * +Sagittis nods. "True, true. Then Enclave are worse." He tilts his head at Sour_Grape's second statement. "So, if a bastard hurts folks they should get away with it if they are not dealt with then and there?"
  496. 06[03:54] * +Sour_Grape will answer this dramatic question later
  497. 01[03:55] <@SilentBrony|GM> 3 Sour Grape for being a conniving little tattletale on Slag_Heap recieves -1 Karma. Sagittis for subduing and abducting a Guard recieves -4 Karma.
