  1. [18:33] * Rabtar after defeating the mad zebra necromancer and after a rather heated argument, our group head back to there camp. They still have to ease tensions between Newton and Trailer Trash before fighting breaks out but with the necromancer dead it should be easier
  2. [18:35] * Rabtar Mercy and Long-shot had gone on ahead...
  3. [18:35] * Ragebrew stopped maybe a few minutes into the long trot back to their base, slowly dragging her hooves through the dirt. "Everything is so slow now..." She muttered before looking over her shoulder. "Gimme a few... I am gonna go grab that corpse. Might be usefu to convince the Trailers..." She spun around and trotted back to the battlefield slowly. She passed by Midnight without a word, gathering up the abused corpse.
  4. [18:36] * Midnight_Hour spends her time quietly, yet angrily trying to brush the cheese and zombie out of her hair. Every dried tangle is agony and she sheds a tear every time she is forced to cut off a lock of her mane that is beyond saving.
  5. [18:37] * Elektron Elektron is still a little shaken over the battle... He was never a fighter, yet tore gaping holes in that beast
  6. [18:38] * Zola ([email protected]) has joined #piss_poor_group
  7. [18:40] * Ragebrew groans under the weight of the corpse, shifting it about a few times before just ripped one of its legs off to lighten the load slightly. He didn't care as it began to ooze swiftly congealing blood onto her armor as she took back afte towards camp.
  8. [18:41] * Midnight_Hour glares daggers at Ragebrew as he/she passes before returning her attention to the scissors, brush, comb, and mirror floating around her head.
  9. [18:42] * Ragebrew stops mid stride to turn and look at Midnight_Hour, cracking a blood soaked smile at her before continuing on, leaving a long trail of blood splotches in her wait, some of them quite possibly her own.
  10. [18:43] * Elektron looks at the corpse and feels a little bit of him die as he shudders... he helped kill that zerba, without the adrenaline to shield him he couldn't avoid that fact
  11. [18:45] * Latex_dazzle ([email protected]) has joined #piss_poor_group
  12. [18:47] * Latex_dazzle is now known as Zombie_Nanny_Zuffum
  13. [18:47] * Ragebrew looks at Elektron, spotting his shudder. She only shook her head, looking at Elektron with a weary smile. "Aye, be dead if ya didn't make her dead first. Remember that before ya go into guilt mode. Also, how many ponies died because of this one?"
  14. [18:50] * Elektron shakes his head "Its not just that... I tried to cripple at first, I really did! Then before I knew it I was firing as fast as I could press the trigger"
  15. [18:51] <Elektron> "Even after she died I wanted to keep firing until she was nothing but dust... just... where the hell did that come from?"
  16. [18:51] * Rabtar the dead zebra seems to be bleeding... black blood
  17. [18:51] * Ragebrew shooks her head, pausing for a moment to guzzle down another serving of water. Helped with the cotton mouth at least. "A reasonable responce in my book.... Oh that is disgusting...." Looks at the thick blood and slings it off her back. "Got any rope?"
  18. [18:52] * Elektron blushes "I know Mercy and Long-shot do, but they went back to camp"
  19. [18:56] * Midnight_Hour spots the black blood and her eyes widen. "Watch out! I think she moved!" Midnight shouts before grabbing the corpse in her magic and lifting it off of Ragebrew. "The witch is undead!"
  20. [19:16] * Zombie_Nanny_Zuffum is now known as latex_dazzle
  21. [19:17] * Merciful_Devotion walks back to the group, still kinda trailing sludge from the crazy zombie sandwich... She was still boggling over that fact... Her new fancy LMG nestled neatly in her saddle, awaiting attachment to the sides.
  22. [19:18] * Ragebrew looks over at Midnight as she lifts up the necromancer corpse from her back. "Oh." She pulled out the Samaritian and blasted the zebra's head off, reducing it to a bloody stump of gore. "Now it ain't. Put that back."
  23. [19:20] * Midnight_Hour blinks. "Oh. Yeah. I guess that would solve that..."
  24. [19:21] <Ragebrew> "Surprising what a hole to the head can solve. Now put that back unless ya fancy carrying it."
  25. [19:21] * Elektron recoils from the blast, some bits of head landing on him
  26. [19:22] * Midnight_Hour lowers the headless corpse back onto Ragebrew's back. She looks back at her mirror, seeing that all the gunk was gone, and gives her mane a quick brushing to fix it.
  27. [19:23] * Ragebrew resumes trotting back to camp with the same slow drag of her hooves, passing by Mercy with a whispered "I am sorry..." before contiuning the long trot back to camp.
  28. [19:24] * Merciful_Devotion blinks a bit as Ragebrew walks past. "Yeash Rage, no need to be hard on yourself... We both messed up..."
  29. [19:27] * Ragebrew just looks over at Mercy, feebly smiling. "No. I did. I should have known that was a trap. This is my fault."
  30. [19:29] * Merciful_Devotion giggles and trots up beside the now-mare fluffpone. "I said it's fine~ Really. We're all alive so far, that's what's important... Long's sleeping back at camp, I made sure to keep the tent hidden with a bit of scruffy dead brush, but I'm not too good at it..."
  31. [19:31] <Ragebrew> "Then lets hope Amethyst decided to stay around before heading off to Sisters know where. And didn't decide to test Long's ability as her chair."
  32. [19:32] * Merciful_Devotion blinkd once. "Wait... What?"
  33. [19:32] <Elektron> "I wanted to ask her a little more of where she got this rifle," nodding to the Disintegrator "It's... terrifyingly powerful"
  34. [19:33] * Midnight_Hour seemed satisfied with her hair, although it is now about two or three inches shorter. Looking down at her armor, however, causes her to sigh and close her eyes. "So much cleaning to do."
  35. [19:34] <Ragebrew> "Finish it at camp. I want to get this to the Trailers before flies start to swarm it."
  36. [19:35] * Midnight_Hour shoots another look at Ragebrew before resigning to follow, although she is a short distance to the west to avoid catching the smell of her companions.
  37. [19:35] <Merciful_Devotion> "I have to agree with him... Her... I'm just gonna say Rage for now until we figure out what the hay that thing actually did to you..."
  38. [19:36] <Elektron> "And we need to get you to a doctor Rage, you've seemed more... irritable since you took those drugs"
  39. [19:36] <Midnight_Hour> "He's in withdrawl. Whatever that concoction was, his body's probably already addicted to it."
  40. [19:37] * Ragebrew looks at Elektron with a nod. "I like being angry too much, I agree. Still, this isn't the first time I've had to deal with addiction pains. Just... Don't give me a reason to be angry for a few days, couple weeks, and I should be fine..."
  41. [19:38] <Merciful_Devotion> "I still say a doctor's visit is a smart thing... Don't know what else they could have done to you... Besides, you could use a patch-job, no offense."
  42. [19:39] <Ragebrew> "There is healer with the Trailers. They can tend the external things. One thing at a time for now."
  43. [19:41] <Ragebrew> "And I am not too surprised I fell into this batch's thrall. Rage and I have a long history."
  44. [19:42] * Merciful_Devotion blinks. "If you say so..."
  45. [19:45] * Ragebrew grinned slightly. "How else ya think a push over like me survived 20 years without help? Drugs. Lot of them." She crested another dune, groaning as it was like all the others before. "I am gonna do a bit of scouring. I will catch up shortly."
  46. [19:57] * Elektron helps Ragebrew scavenge around
  47. [19:58] * Elektron notices something shiny in the ground "Hey Rage, is this something you can use?" He points to the bit of metal in the ground, approaching it
  48. [20:00] * Ragebrew grabs Elektron and dives for the ground
  49. [20:00] <@Rabtar> immediately to Ragebrews left a loud *BEEP BEEP BEEP!* is heard
  50. [20:01] * Rabtar and then another loud *BEEP BEEP BEEP!* from right below them
  51. [20:02] * Ragebrew slams her hoof into the sand, praying to the Sisters the disable button was close at hoof.
  52. [20:03] * Rabtar the mine under Rage and Elektron goes silent, but the other goes off!
  53. [20:06] * Rabtar the explosion shakes the ground, shortly after *many* more muffled *BEEP BEEP BEEP!* s can be headr...
  54. [20:07] * Merciful_Devotion folds her ears back. "Oh... Fuck..."
  55. [20:09] * Ragebrew takes a half second to grab her only healing potion and slug it back, looking at Elektron. "We are fucked. Just crawl back slowly. Should be clearish behind us..."
  56. [20:10] * Midnight_Hour stops moving and looks to Mercy and then Elektron and Ragebrew on the ground a good distance away. "Quite."
  57. [20:12] * Elektron nods fearfully, eyes as wide as a mine and follows Ragebrew's instructions
  58. [20:13] * Ragebrew grabs onto Elektron's shoulder. "Wait... I will lead... I can spot these easily enough..."
  59. [20:13] * Midnight_Hour swallows. "I can get us all to safety, but Ragebrew and Elektron are just a little too far out of range for the spell to work."
  60. [20:14] <Merciful_Devotion> "So... We're gonna leave them?" She seems horrified at the idea.
  61. [20:14] <Midnight_Hour> 1d10
  62. [20:18] * Midnight_Hour closes her eyes and takes a deep breath. "No... As much as I hate Ragebrew, no."
  63. [20:21] * Merciful_Devotion sighs in relief. "Thank the goddesses..."
  64. [20:22] * Midnight_Hour takes and releases another deep breath. "Although I'm worried that this might put too much straing on my magic. I'm worried this might burn out my horn..."
  65. [20:24] * Rabtar Elektron with his infinite luck has stepped right on a mine...
  66. [20:24] * Elektron sucks in a breathe and closes his eyes as he prepares to be blown to shreds...
  67. [20:25] * Ragebrew has her eyes turn to plates. Beep. She bit down on Elektron's mane. Beep. She coiled every muscle in her body. Beep. She snapped them in one motion, sending the engineer pony flying away with a cry of "CATCH!" Boom.
  68. [20:26] * Midnight_Hour suddenly reaches out with her magic, wrapping Elektron in her magic and trying to pull him while keeping him aloft over the minefield. "A little help here, Mercy! I can't lift a stallion with telekenesis unless I'm REALLY mad!"
  69. [20:30] * Tuneout ([email protected]) has joined #piss_poor_group
  70. [20:31] * Rabtar the mine explodes, flinging Ragebrew threw the air, one of her front legs outright gone!
  71. [20:31] * Tuneout is now known as Long-shot
  72. [20:32] * Ragebrew does limp as she sails through the air, a small fountian of blood pinwheeling around her from her stump of a leg as she flew in a rapid series of spins before landing on the ground with a limp thud.
  73. [20:33] * Merciful_Devotion clenches her eyes shut, needing more focus to keep her magic from failing as Midnight needed it.
  74. [20:34] * Elektron as he sails end over end through the air, catches the sight of Ragebrew falling limply, and knows that sight will be forever engraved into his memory
  75. [20:35] * Midnight_Hour stares in shock as Ragebrew goes flying, but notices that both Ragebrew and Elektron are now in range. "Hope this works!" she shouts before clenching her eyes closed and focusing her mind on the camp. In a flash of purple light, Midnight_Hour, Merciful_Devotion, Ragebrew, and Elektron are gone, instantly reappearing in the center of camp.
  76. [20:40] * Elektron oofs as he slams into the ground, and quickly rushes to Ragebrew
  77. [20:41] * Ragebrew lies limp on the ground, her body covered in gaping shrapnel wounds that are liberally pumping blood onto the sand. Almost as much as the bloody stump that was once her right leg.
  78. [20:42] * Elektron approaches Ragebrew apologizing profusely "I'M SORRY, I DIDN'T REALIZE WHAT IT WAS... I'M... I'M SO SORRY!" he says in a panic as he sees just how bad the injury is
  79. [20:42] * Midnight_Hour collapses to the ground, her head spinning from the strain of teleporting so many ponies so far. She didn't know if it would save Ragebrew, but the fact that she had accomplished such a feat of magical prowess was victory enough for her as she panted on the ground.
  80. [20:43] * Midnight_Hour gasps for air. "I have two healing potions in my bags. I... I'm too tired to get them out..." she says weakly.
  81. [20:43] * Ragebrew 's eyes are partially closed, and there is blood oozing out of her mouth. If it weren't for the blood gushing out of her wounds, one could easily mistake her for dead.
  82. [20:44] * Merciful_Devotion rushes over and grabs the potions from Midnight's bags, running them over to Ragebrew.
  83. [20:46] * Rabtar the potion dose it's job, saving Ragebrews life but not her leg...
  84. [20:48] * Elektron still in a panic "Can... can we do something about his leg?" he asks Mercy, tears filling his eyes "Please... tell me theres something I can do..."
  85. [20:48] * Long-shot shakes her head frantically "WHAT THE HELL!?!?" she smacks herself rushing over "What, how, where!?" she looks about Rage frantically
  86. [20:48] * Ragebrew has a series of wrecking coughs come from her as the burning tingle of healing potions burned through the haze of shock. Several small shards of metal were spat out of her mouth during it, along with some final motes of blood. Her voice was just a whisper "Elektron.... ok?"
  87. [20:49] * Midnight_Hour rolls onto her back. "Teleport spell. Too many ponies at once. Ragebrew's hurt."
  88. [20:49] * Rabtar Long-shot's coat looks... odd. The normal grey shifting in color, almost as if it's blending in with her suroundings
  89. [20:49] * Elektron tearfully nodding "Yes... not a scratch... you... saved me... twice"
  90. [20:50] * Merciful_Devotion puts a hoof on Elektron's shoulder. "Nothing I know of can help that..." She looks to Ragebrew, blinking a tear from her eyes. "But you..."
  91. [20:51] * Ragebrew lets out a slow sigh, once more going limp on the ground, but no longer gushing blood. "Good... No dying... Not allowed..."
  92. [20:51] * Midnight_Hour suddenly drifts off, too tired from magical overexersion to stay awake.
  93. [20:51] <Elektron> "Why... why did you do it? Why didn't you leave me to my own failure? You didn't deserve this... none of it..."
  94. [20:52] * Long-shot looks around quickcly trying to make sense of the situation
  95. [20:53] * Ragebrew rolls an eye to look at Elektron, ignoring the fact her eyelid was split in two along the center. "Because.... if ya died... ya wouldn't learn... not to repeat that mistake..." She spoke between slow breaths. "I feel... off balance..."
  96. [20:53] <Merciful_Devotion> "You... May have lost a leg..."
  97. [20:55] * Long-shot nods "Your not the only one who feels strange.."
  98. [20:55] * Elektron cries into Rage's coat "I'm so sorry..." breathing hard
  99. [20:55] * Ragebrew tries to squeeze closed her eyes at that. She could still see through the split. After a long moment, she snapped her eyes open and looked at the stump. She stared in silence for a long time, until uttering "May have?"
  100. [20:57] <Merciful_Devotion> "Well, I think there's ways to regrow, or reattach it... Maybe replace it... I dunno..."
  101. [20:58] * Long-shot nods "There is, you can get.. cybernetic augmentations" she says softly
  102. [20:58] * Merciful_Devotion looks back at Long-shot. "Uh... I think you're turning into a chameleon..."
  103. [20:58] * Ragebrew pushed Elektron's head off her coat. "Save yer tears... for when I'm dead." She pushed herself off the ground, looking at Long-shot with an arched eyebrow. "Nice camo Long. I like it..." She unsteadily rose to three legs. "I have ways Mercy. I have ways... Someone help me set up my alchemy kit... I have work to do..."
  104. [20:59] * Elektron quickly rushes to help Ragebrew
  105. [20:59] * Long-shot blinks "Wait what? Camo? But I don't have a port for my pip buck!" she blinks again "What do you mean?"
  106. [20:59] <Elektron> "Just.. just tell me what you need... anything..."
  107. [21:00] * Merciful_Devotion giggles at Long. "You're kinda blending into the background, hun."
  108. [21:00] * Long-shot looks at herself "Waaaat!?"
  109. [21:01] * Ragebrew worked slowly to unsling her ammo cases, which had thankfully avoided too much damage. A few embedded bits, nothing more. "Just... Hold things for me. I can grab too well..." She pulled her compacted alchemy kit out "Unfold that and get it warming." Then her herb pouch. And then... A red stone leg. Far too massive for a normal pony. "Glad I picked this up..."
  110. [21:02] * Elektron does exactly as he says, trying desperately not to fail him again
  111. [21:02] * Merciful_Devotion keeps giggling. "It's a nice touch."
  112. [21:05] * Long-shot blushes "Wat.. really.. do I want to know what happened?"
  113. [21:06] * Ragebrew set aside a trio of green herbs and a single blue one. "Years ago, I learned a simple recipe from a book... It was a potion that mended bones. I think... I might be able to improve it... This leg isn't normal, I can smell it... Maybe... We shall see..." With Elektron's extra hooves to assist in stirring and temperature control, Ragebrew slowly went about working, simply saying "Tell us the magic words" under her breath befor
  114. [21:06] <Merciful_Devotion> "My guess, you got something from that giant... Was that a sandwich you ponies were fighting?"
  115. [21:07] * Long-shot nods and whines "But now nopony can see my sexy white coat..." she sniffs
  116. [21:11] * Merciful_Devotion patpats her shoulder. "It'll be okay."
  117. [21:13] * Long-shot sits and frowns taking a few things out of her bag and watching Rage from her position carefully work on himself there to assist if needed, she takes out her two .45's and removes the barrel from the broken one putting it on the new one and putting both .45's back away pulling out her Zebra Stealth Tactics mags and sitting down to read it as she waits
  118. [21:15] * Ragebrew works slowly at her cauldron, mixing the four herbs together slowly, pouring some of her own blood into the mixture as well. After it had congealed into a thick greenish paste, she dipped both her stump and the leg into the mixture, before pushing them together. "Elektron, hold that together like it was super glue..."
  119. [21:16] * Elektron from his experience of repair, knows exactly how super glue works and does as he says
  120. [21:18] * Ragebrew grits her teeth so loudly it sounds like a rock grinder for a moment as the green paste hissed and sputtered, bubbling against the wound and the new limb. It lasted only a few moments, but eventually, whereever the paste had been, new flesh replaced it.
  121. [21:18] * Rabtar the two limbs hold fast, the strange red... leg twitching a little as the concoction works...
  122. [21:19] * Ragebrew looks down at the leg twitch, and grins from ear to ear. "Knew ya were something special... Lets hope in a good way. Don't wanna have to rip ya off and get a new one..."
  123. [21:20] * Elektron relaxes a little, knowing his mistake was able to be fixed a bit
  124. [21:20] <Merciful_Devotion> "I'm gonna try scrubbing this crud off my legs..."
  125. [21:22] <Ragebrew> "A good idea... Look what it did to Long." She said with much improved spirits, sitting down and looking over her new leg. "But I do like the look on ya. Less outstanding."
  126. [21:22] * Midnight_Hour snores softly on the ground, blissfully unaware of the alchemical fusion going on nearby.
  127. [21:23] * Long-shot blinks looking over from her magazine "What's that mean? I didn't think my coat stood out that bad if that's what you mean.."
  128. [21:25] <Ragebrew> "Pure white is not a color ya see in the wastes."
  129. [21:25] * Long-shot nods "I guess so.. but I still loved it.."
  130. [21:26] <Ragebrew> "It was a nice color. But aye, sure we could find ya some dye or something one of these days, after yer sniper maring days are behind ya."
  131. [21:28] * Ragebrew looks over at Elektron "Next time ya guide me into a mine field, however, I ain't saving yer ass. If ya didn't learn yer lesson this time, ya never will."
  132. [21:29] * Elektron nods frantically "I won't, I promise... I won't... just... leave me if I ever do."
  133. [21:29] * Long-shot smiles and nods "Thanks, that means a lot" she smiles to Rage before returning to her magazine
  134. [21:30] * Ragebrew thwaps Elektron lightly with her new hoof. "Oh I ain't leaving ya. I'd just let the mine go off before trying to haul yer ass out."
  135. [21:30] * Midnight_Hour suddenly starts awake. "Zombie cheese!" she screams before realizing she had fallen asleep and it was just a nightmare.
  136. [21:31] * Ragebrew looks over at Midnight_Hour and waves to her with her new leg. "If yer having problems sleeping, I know a recipe for that."
  137. [21:32] * Midnight_Hour blinks at Ragebrew a few moments before finally speaking. "Where did that come from?"
  138. [21:32] * Long-shot gets up and goes to Midnight_Hour softly easing her up and a little bit back away from the smell and laying her down where she was by the book "It's okay, just relax now" she smiles warmly "We got some time if you want to rest"
  139. [21:32] * Ragebrew grins "I've had it with me long as I've had the Samaritian. Found 'em on the same body. Never knew when I might need a new leg."
  140. [21:34] * Midnight_Hour stares at Ragebrew, this time dumbfounded instead of angry, before shaking her head. "A book would be nice. Did the necromancer have any spellbooks? If I could figure out her process, then I could possibly create a counter spell if we ever run into something like it again."
  141. [21:36] * Long-shot shakes her head "Not that I'm aware, I only found the one I'm reading" she shrugs "Sorry"
  142. [21:36] * Ragebrew nodded. "I remember she had a book with her. Didn't smell right though. Also, thing this leg is some magical. I can feel it. Like a leg that I sat on for way too long."
  143. [21:39] <Midnight_Hour> "May I take a look over what you found on the necromancer?"
  144. [21:39] <Ragebrew> "Only because ya seeme to have learned some manners. Be careful though. Sisters know what might be in there."
  145. [21:41] <Elektron> "Should we head back to town? We should probably show them what we found and stay for the night."
  146. [21:43] <Ragebrew> "I would love to see a healer, yes..." She was still covered in thinly sealed sharpnel wounds, most of them still very deep but at least not bleeding any more. Her head was also still slightly caved in from the blow she took from the Slamwitch.
  147. [21:44] * Midnight_Hour nods as she tried to hide her anger at Rage long enough to get her hooves on the spellbook and the magic book. Her eyes widen at the sight of the magic book. "That's a limited edition magical primer!"
  148. [21:45] * Long-shot looks over and watches "Wat"
  149. [21:45] * Ragebrew shrugged. "Good? If ya find anything us hornless sods can use, please share. My cookbook is lacking."
  150. [21:47] * Midnight_Hour takes the two books, trots back over to the spot next to Long-shot, and cracks open the magical primer. Surprising to everyone is just how fast she reads as she turns the page after only a few moments.
  151. [21:48] * Long-shot looks over curiously leaning in to see the book "What does it do?" she whispers softly "I'd like to learn more magic and that is clearly important"
  152. [21:49] * Zola ([email protected]) has left #piss_poor_group
  153. [21:49] * Ragebrew stays sitting infront of her alchemy kit. After a few moments, she pulled out her drug case, laying the sets of Dash and Rage out before her. Taking four of her blue herbs, she went about the slow process of cooking them all together into that blue dust she used earlier.
  154. [21:50] * Midnight_Hour doesn't look up from the book while addressing Long-shot. "It's a book on the finer points of spellcraft and magical manipulation. This one was written with a forward by Mosaic and Gestalt, two of Twilight Sparkle's second-in-commands within the Ministry of Arcane Sciences. My father would absolutely love to read this!"
  155. [21:51] * Elektron looks at Ragebrew "What are you making now?" he asked, tilting his head
  156. [21:51] * Long-shot oogles the book "That's... so... awesome..." she says almost entranced listening to her words
  157. [21:51] * Ragebrew cracks open the inhaler and the injector, pouring the contents onto the dried blue herb leaves, slowly mixing it together before looking at Elektron. "More Frenzy. It worked well enough."
  158. [21:52] * Elektron frowns "I hope you don't plan to take anymore of that, it can't be good for you"
  159. [21:52] * Midnight_Hour smiles at Long-shot, seeing her almost childlike glee at the book. "If you wish, I could show you some cantrips from time to time. Learning spells outside your special talents range is very difficult, but not impossible.
  160. [21:54] * Long-shot squees "Oh yes! Oh yes! I'd absolutely love that!" she smiles giving her an happy gentle hug as not to disturb her reading as little as possible "Thankyou so much!"
  161. [21:55] <Ragebrew> "Oh, it's not. I feel naseous, I want to punch yer face in for making me losing a leg, and everything is so fucking slow it hurts. But while I was on it... Well, I felt like I could have ripped that Slamwitch apart with my teeth, and the world was moving in slow motion for a time. In a fight, that can make the difference."
  162. [21:57] * Elektron recoils a bit and steps away with his head low
  163. [21:57] * Ragebrew busies herself mixing. The second batch was obviously using some cut Rage or Dash, because it did not boil down into a nice crystalline powder, but instead caused a huge smoke cloud to rise up. Ragebrew wisely covered her face and waved the fumes away from the cauldron
  164. [21:58] * Merciful_Devotion trots back over, her legs mostly cleaned. "That wasn't fun..."
  165. [21:59] * Ragebrew scrapes the bottom of the cauldron anyways, putting the off color gunk into a bottle for later. "Eh, might do something." She finished the other two batches, putting one of the small pouches on her bandoleer, the other two back in her chem case. "Need a lock for that..."

  168. [22:06] * Ragebrew finishes her chem cooking, and applies a set of magical bandages to herself. "Midnight, read while we trot. Rather sleep somewhere with guards tonight, wouldn't ya?" She looked over to Long-shot "Ya seen Amethyst by any chance?"
  169. [22:07] * Elektron nods "And I want to examine this Alien Rifle, its... intriguing"
  170. [22:07] * Midnight_Hour sighs. "I can't do that. I can already feel my horn is one the verge of burning out. Any more straing might push me over the edge."
  171. [22:07] <Midnight_Hour> "So I'll just follow and read my book later.
  172. [22:08] * Long-shot shakes her head "No, sorry"
  173. [22:09] * Ragebrew nodded. "Thank ya. I woulda bled out on the sand if ya hadn't pulled that trick." She finished tending her wounds and put everything away, not looking at Midnight before heading off in advance. "I will do some gathering along the way. I will see ya'll there.
  174. [22:10] * Long-shot ([email protected]) Quit ( Connection closed )
  175. [22:10] * Midnight_Hour blinks. "Um, yes, I. You're welcome..." she pauses, before closing her eyes and rolling them beneath her eyelids. "And sorry I threw you..."
  176. [22:11] * Ragebrew did not respond to Midnight, instead just sliding down a dune and out of sight.
  177. [22:13] * Tuneout ([email protected]) has joined #piss_poor_group
  178. [22:15] * Tuneout is now known as Long-shot
  179. [22:16] * Elektron begins the trek back to town
  180. [22:16] * Rabtar along the way Ragebrew finds a few veggies and a small box with some ammo in it
  181. [22:21] * Ragebrew eventually rejoins with the party, moving fairly slowly due to her new leg and the fact it felt like she was moving through water all the time. She offered the box of ECP rounds to Midnight. "Not sure if yer gun uses these, but ya might be able to make use of 'em."
  182. [22:26] * Rabtar our group arrive at Trailer Trash around late afternoon, Ragebrew slowing them down quite a bit. Crab Apple comes out to meet them "What happened? We heard thee sounds of gunfire then several explosions? I was putting together a group of warriors to go looking for you"
  183. [22:26] * Ragebrew drops the zebra carcass on the ground. "I require a healer."
  184. [22:28] * Rabtar "Who is that... striped pony?"
  185. [22:29] * Midnight_Hour looks at Crab Apple. "That is your necromancer. She was raising zombies on both sides and having them attack the other."
  186. [22:29] <Ragebrew> "The cause of yer problem. Now would ya kindly take me to the healer before my guts fall out all over the place?"
  187. [22:30] * Rabtar he blinks and motions for Ragebrew to follow "Yes.... right this way"
  188. [22:31] * Ragebrew follows after, each step of her hooves a heavy thump as she swings her stiff leg forward to support her.
  189. [22:33] <Merciful_Devotion> "I'll go see what I can do with the merchants and all." She lets her horn glow, casting her Soft Light spell. "Anypony coming with me?"
  190. [22:34] * Long-shot nods "I will"
  191. [22:34] <Elektron> "I'll go out back to the work bench, I want to examine this rifle right away" he said, nodding to the Alien tech
  192. [22:34] <Midnight_Hour> I guess.
  193. [22:34] * Midnight_Hour follows Merciful_Devotion to the shops.
  194. [22:34] * Elektron trots out back to the work bench
  195. [22:34] * Merciful_Devotion giggles softly, heading for the merchants.
  196. [22:37] * Elektron pulls out the Alien Rifle, staring at it for a second. It was the most powerful energy weapon of its size that he ever used "What secrets do you hold..." he muttered, setting it down and getting to work examining it
  197. [22:43] * Ragebrew is heard yelp from the Trailer "Aye! Watch where yer hooves are going! I can patch myself up down there, thank ya very much!"
  198. [22:43] * Long-shot stays at Midnight_Hour's side as she trots "Thanks again for teaching me magic" she smiled to her
  199. [22:45] * Midnight_Hour looks at Long-shot sidelong. "I haven't taught you anything yet. I have yet to see if you have any apptitude for magic beyond your natural talents."
  200. [22:46] * Long-shot nodnods "Okay, well I hope to bring good results!" she says confidently
  201. [22:46] * Rabtar the strange rifle pops open with the push of a button, but sadly it's inner working are a bit beyond Elektrons understanding
  202. [22:47] * Elektron gaps at the insides. "What in the world..." This will obviously need a second look at to understand properly
  203. [22:52] * Elektron sighs and puts away the strange Alien tech, and instead fixes the two Magical Energy Rifles from the strange Zebra
  204. [22:53] * Midnight_Hour sees the apples and apple goods and stomach growls. "So many apples..."
  205. [22:54] * Elektron deftly takes the best bits from each MER and makes a superior rifle "Probably the best I'll get it for now"
  206. [22:56] * Ragebrew stumbles out of the healer trailer, looking a little annoyed but at least whole in body. She stumbled about a little, her head foggy from the after effects of snorting way too much healing powder too quickly. She wobbled around the camp for a minute, before lurching over to the merchant trailer. She staggered there for a moment, before eyeing the fresh herbs hanging off the walls. "Ooooh... Mercy... Herbs..."
  207. [22:57] * Long-shot hooves Midnight_Hour an apple "Here, you'll enjoy this more than I will" she smiles
  208. [23:00] <Midnight_Hour> "Really?" she asks, her eyes widening before she takes a slow, sensual bite of the apple and smiles. "Mmmm."
  209. [23:00] * Long-shot nods still holding the apple out for her "Yes, I won't eat it for a while anyway, this way you'll make use of it otherwise I won't" she keeps her smiles to her happy she likes that apple gift!
  210. [23:01] * Ragebrew chuckles a Midnight gets a bit lewd with an apple, looking over the herbs and the fruits slowly. "I could work with a lot of these..."
  211. [23:03] * Ragebrew walks up beside Mercy, and pulls out a small leatherbound journal, full of scrawled writing. "Aye... Would ya be interested in a few medicinal recipes I've found? Sell 'em for a cheap price too."
  212. [23:04] * Merciful_Devotion giggles softly at the mare behind the counter, then glances at Rage. "Hey, feeling better?"
  213. [23:06] * Rabtar the merchant and Mercy begin negotiating over prices and gear...
  214. [23:06] * Ragebrew nods, although her eyelid was still slightly split. "Much. Although I feel like I am swimming through pudding right now, and my brain is replaced with fog. That'll pass... eventually."
  215. [23:07] <Ragebrew> "Plus, gonna need a bit of help figuring out how to use the latrine..." It was hard to blush around copper red, but it can happen.
  216. [23:09] * Merciful_Devotion giggles. "I wouldn't mind helping with that, hun~"
  217. [23:13] * Ragebrew backs away, the blush intensifying "Don't ya dare make this any more awkward for me than it already is... please?"
  218. [23:14] * Merciful_Devotion pouts. "Fiiine..."
  219. [23:17] * Ragebrew does a bit of quick math, before looking back over at Midnight in particular "Aye, could ya spot me five caps Midnight?"
  220. [23:20] * Midnight_Hour pulls out her small change purse and grimaces at the paltry amount within. "I guess," she sighed, floating the five caps to Ragebrew.
  221. [23:24] * Ragebrew takes the five caps, grinning. "Thank ya." She turned back to the merchant and with the small mass of caps she had, she bought every last green herb, all but 2 of the blue herbs, four apples... And one of the apple pies. With the last five caps, she asked for one last apple, since she did just blow a small mound of caps. She smiled when she got it. She quickly flicked it to Midnight with a grin.
  222. [23:26] * Midnight_Hour seems almost overjoyed at all the apples and the pie being bought. Midnight takes the apple graciously. "T-Thank you."
  223. [23:26] <Ragebrew> "
  224. [23:27] * Ragebrew grins as she put all her herbs away in their pouch. "Just save room for later. Figure ya'll want room for the pie. Figure we've earned a real treat after that hell." She trotted outside to go find somewhere for them to sleep that had most of 4 walls and a roof.
  225. [23:28] * Ragebrew pops her head back in "And I wasn't kidding about the sleeping powder. If ya can't sleep, just ask. Be my pleasure to sedate ya." She chuckled and left again
  226. [23:32] * Trillum ([email protected]) has joined #piss_poor_group
  227. [23:33] * Trillum Trots by and snickers at Elektron and Long-shot
  228. [23:33] * Long-shot follows Rage to a tent and sits blinking confused at Trillium "Um... Okay?"
  229. [23:34] * Trillum is now known as Trillium
  230. [23:34] * Trillium ([email protected]) has left #piss_poor_group

  233. [23:35] * Midnight_Hour ([email protected]) Quit ( Connection closed )
  234. [23:35] * Trillium looks at Elektron. "So... two mares?"
  235. [23:36] * Long-shot trots up to Trillium's side "Hay how do I look?" she giggles nervously looking down at herself
  236. [23:36] * Merciful_Devotion finishes some idle conversation with the merchant before heading back towards Long-shot.
  237. [23:37] * Ragebrew looks over at the trio of ponies near the work bench, setting up her alchemy kit for dinner while taking another serving of water to help clear out the taste of blood in her mouth.
  238. [23:37] * Trillium pokes gently at Long-shot's coat. "Ooo. Shiney! You definitely are a pony of a different colour!"
  239. [23:38] * Elektron blushes hopelessly "Something you needed Long-shot?"
  240. [23:38] * Long-shot giggles at Trillium's poking and nods "Y-Yes can you see about that gun for me? Except can you try to install the scope please?"
  241. [23:39] * Trillium whispers to Long-shot "Colt seems like he'd need a scope for... well... if you catch my drift..."
  242. [23:39] * Elektron nods "Sure, Iron Sight showed me how to install things like that, give me the varmint rifle, a plasma pistol, some metal and electronics and ill see what i can do
  243. [23:39] * Ragebrew chuckles as she looks over at Elektron and his plight, stiffly slicing mushrooms and some gourds he.... no, she... found earlier in the wastes, sauteeing them with a little dry garlic. The grass was added once it was nice and browned, sizzling away idly as she watched.
  244. [23:39] <Elektron> "
  245. [23:40] * Long-shot blushes and facehooves "You... are a naughty mare..." she shakes her head
  246. [23:41] * Trillium looks back and forth between Long-shot and Ragebrew. "Yes, I am. By the way, didn't you leave with another stallion?"
  247. [23:41] * Elektron goes to work making the carbine
  248. [23:42] * Long-shot turns to Elektron and nods giving him what he asked for before turning back to Trillium "Yeah but something about Amy saving his dad and she was in space its a long story" she nods "He left to see his dad"
  249. [23:43] * Trillium blinks. "And... you picked up his twin sister?"
  250. [23:44] * Merciful_Devotion sidles up to Long-shot, grinning at Trillium. "Hello there~"
  251. [23:44] * Ragebrew looked up to Trillium, calmly setting the spoon she was stirring with. "No, I'm him. I just am very unlucky." She lifted her heavy stone right foreleg, slaming it on the ground with a thud. "Very unlucky."
  252. [23:44] * Long-shot "No, just found another pony" she nods meeping from Mercy
  253. [23:44] * Rabtar Elektron spends most the night working on the weapon
  254. [23:45] * Long-shot looks around itching her mane "Well... anyway..."
  255. [23:45] * Long-shot scoots up to Trillium and looks away blushing and itching her mane nervously "C-Can I have a hug f-from a cute mare like you? Promise I won't try anything" she bites her lip waiting for the answer
  256. [23:46] * Trillium looks confused at the colour changing pony. "Um, sure?" She hugs Long-shot before glancing back at the working Elektron. "Are you sure you got him laid? Boy don't act like it..."
  257. [23:46] <Merciful_Devotion> "Yup, we did~"
  258. [23:47] * Long-shot squees and smiles nuzzling Trillium happily in the hug with a soft purr "Thanks..." she says softly
  259. [23:47] * Ragebrew snorts, holding back laughter as she added the last touches to their meal. A serving for six, but only with five. She sighed, looking to the heavens for a moment. "Ya'd better the safe up there, little gem." She looked over to the party and Trillium "Aye, dinners ready. Care to join us miss? Our sixth is missing.
  260. [23:49] * Trillium Nods thankfully to Ragebrew. "Thank you kindly, sir." She smiles at Ragebrew. "Figure you'd like to be referred to who you are before you had some sort of misfortune."
  261. [23:50] * Ragebrew points her spoon at Trillium with a grin as she served up five plates, eating from the skillet herself. "I like ya. I like ya a lot."
  262. [23:54] * Long-shot nuzzles Trillium softly eating her food happily
  263. [23:57] * Ragebrew sets a plate beside Elektron as he works with the gun. "Get it while its warm, then get yer ass to sleep. No rope play." She rejoined the others. "So, besides yer regularly scheduled orgy, what plans do we have? Need to convince the elders and Newton it wasn't either side attacking them, but a third party.
  264. [23:57] * Elektron continues working on the Carbine, what should have been a trivial task was taking a serious amount of time
  265. [23:58] * Rabtar our group was offer an empty trailer for the night, a few old mats for beds and sheets to make 'rooms'
  266. [23:58] * Long-shot nibbles on Trillium's neck softly cooing her for nothing but snuggles^^
  267. [00:01] * Elektron nibbles on the plate of food while working, the days events kept casting shadows in his mind, slowing his progression
  268. [00:02] * Trillium looks confused at Long-shot as her neck is nibbled on. She pats the mare. "Sorry honey, my barn door don't swing that way. Unless I've got half a bottle o' wild P in me."
  269. [00:02] * Ragebrew looks at the trailer for a moment. "Truly a palace. She found a bed and just sort of collapsed into it. She giggled at what Trillium said, then slapped a hoof over her mouth. "Never again..."
  270. [00:02] * Long-shot snickers "Mind if I get some sometime then~" she asks softly
  271. [00:04] * Trillium giggles at Ragebrew. "You'll get used to it. One of you ladies explain to him what happens when yer season starts. Or hang on to it for a day that he really upsets ya." She nods to Ragebrew. "Thanks for the dinner, it was excellent." She takes her leave.
  272. [00:05] * Ragebrew nods against the somewhat clean, kinda, mattress. "My pleasure miss. Glad we could help yer tribe. Seem a peaceful enough lot, be a shame to have ya go to war."
  273. [00:06] * Long-shot sighs happily watching Trillium go with a longing for breath now probably going to be left not able to get her out of her mind
  274. [00:07] * Trillium is now known as Heartshine_PnP
  275. [00:07] * Heartshine_PnP ([email protected]) has left #piss_poor_group
  276. [00:08] * Trillium ([email protected]) has joined #piss_poor_group
  277. [00:09] * Trillium nips Long-shot on the ear before departing toward her village
  278. [00:10] * Long-shot smiles wide and falls over for her sleep seeing fluttering hearts around her, pupils probably in the shape of hearts too as she lays on the floor thinking only of Trillium
  279. [00:10] * Ragebrew rolls around until she is comfortable, the stiff rock limb so unfamiliar underneath her. Everything felt so unfamiliar. "I do not like feeling that I do not belong in my skin..." She peeled off her ammo cases and armor, leaving only the blighted bandoleer before she curled into a ball.
  280. [00:11] * Elektron finally finishes the Carbine and places it in his pack before heading to the makeshift rooms where everypony else was
  281. [00:11] * Elektron laid down to sleep... but couldn't. Everytime he closes his eyes he saw Ragebrew's leg blowing off
  282. [00:13] * Trillium ([email protected]) has left #piss_poor_group
  283. [00:14] * Elektron rolls around a bit before finally sitting up. Sleep just wasn't going to happen at the moment
  284. [00:16] * Ragebrew started slow. First a simple choked gasp, and muttering. A low sigh and a few short sobs. A sniffle. Then it all broke apart, and she let a long, loud, unearthly cry, broken by periodic gasps for air. Her entire body rocked as she let out everything she had been keeping barred in. Every wound, ever blow, every slight to what pitiful amount of pride she had came rolling out in one unending torrent of tears.
  285. [00:18] * Elektron startled by the sound trots to Ragebrew
  286. [00:20] * Elektron sits down next to Ragebrew "Can't sleep either?"
  287. [00:27] * Long-shot rolls over coming out of her daze and frowning wiping her eyes and going to Rage slowly
  288. [00:27] * Merciful_Devotion groans and sits up, rubbing her eyes. "What's wrong now?"
  289. [00:30] * Ragebrew is just curled into a tight ball of braids, the full volume of her voice dedicated to a combination of screaming between bouts of sobbing. Only a few words made it out of the garbled crying, mostly "why" and "I try so hard."
  290. [00:32] * Long-shot trots over to Rage and holds her hooves around her "It's okay hun" she repeats feeling her heart wrench inside her chest only feeling so bad for her
  291. [00:32] * Elektron can't bear to see Ragebrew like this, the sight tears him apart inside because he knew part of the tears were for his mistake
  292. [00:33] * Merciful_Devotion looks sadly at the crying mare, knowing she's not really one to help comfort her.
  293. [00:39] * Ragebrew flinches violently when Long-shot touched her, blindly slamming a hoof at her. It missed by inches, punching a hole through the trailer wall "No! No It is not!" She curled all the tigher, her cry paused only for a moment "Since I began trying to help others, not just survive, my life has been one misfortune after another! I am blood soaked, mutated, dismembered, and the wrong gender! THINGS ARE NOT OK!"
  294. [00:40] * Elektron recoils at the strength of the punch, unsure of what to say at a time like this
  295. [00:41] * Long-shot continues to nuzzle and try her best to comfort Rage "I-I'm so sorry... I am blood soaked and mutated too... I am so sorry.." she sniffles herself
  296. [00:43] * Elektron says nervously "I'm sorry too... If I hadn't walked into that damn minefield... things would've been better..." he finished lamely, unsure of his own words
  297. [00:43] <Merciful_Devotion> "And, well... If I hadn't been such a whore, well... I'd have been there to help with the fight more..."
  298. [00:48] * Ragebrew slowly begins to stop screaming as she cried, eventually dying down to just a slow steady sobbing. Words tried to start, dying just before they could pass her lips. She just pushed against Long-shot as she cried further. "Why? Why do you all follow us? Since we left Busted, you have all been put into harms way so much, because of us. Why? What reason do any of you have to follow us?"
  299. [00:50] <Merciful_Devotion> "Well, I cant speak for the others... But I really don't have anywhere else to go..."
  300. [00:53] * Long-shot holds Ragebrew tight in her hooves sobbing as well "Cause Rage.. I don't have anything left.. my father tried to kill me.. and you... your a nice pony trying to help others.. I like that.. and that is why I want to follow you and be more like you too" she whispers clenching her to her chest
  301. [00:54] <Elektron> "Because... you're all thats been keeping me strong, giving me some hope. After I lost that last lead to finding my family... I was ready to call it quits. Just wander till something finally killed me."
  302. [00:54] <Elektron> "The guilt has been tearing me apart. It was enough to keep me going, give me some drive... but its tearing me apart too. If I had just left the town like father told me, I wouldn't have gotten them all captured... or possibly killed by now..."
  303. [00:56] <Elektron> "I... I need you ponies, otherwise I'm as good as dead"
  304. [00:58] * Ragebrew pokes her head out from beneath her hooves, the whites of her eyes nothing but crimson discs. "Mercy... You could talk your way into any life you wanted. You do not need to go where we go." Her words were still broken time to time by sobs. She snatched up Long-shot in her organic leg, pulling ther close and very tight. "We are not a good pony. You saw what we did to foals. How can we be a good pony if that is what we do?"
  305. [00:59] <Merciful_Devotion> "Now Rage, I /know/ this, but it's not who I am... I'm part of this now, whether I like it or not... And you... You're one of my best friends."
  306. [01:02] * Long-shot nods hearing that she couldn't hold it any more, he broke her with the word foal alone, she couldn't get the exploding head out of her mind that poor green filly.. oh goddesses.. she bawled holding Ragebrew equilly tight and sobbing in his chest "I-I know.. I know R-Rage, b-but we have to defend ourselves a-and we did help... I-I'm so sorry Rage.. I know how hard it is" she cries uncontrollably in
  307. [01:02] * Long-shot her hooves
  308. [01:08] * Ragebrew manages to finally stop sobbing, even if tears still run down her cheeks. Slowly she propped up on her bed, wrapped her hoof around Long-shot, not saying anything for a moment as she looked Elektron. "No dying. It's not allowed. Didn't I already tell ya that?" She offered a weak smile as she cradled Long, looking at Mercy. "And best friends don't call each other names in anger. I'm sorry Mercy. Ya saved our lives, and all I d
  309. [01:08] * Ragebrew and all I did was scream at ya... I'm sorry."
  310. [01:09] * Merciful_Devotion giggles softly. "Don't worry about it, I know I'm a bt of a whore. Just ask my old boss up in the Corridor."
  311. [01:10] * Elektron nods "I know... with you ponies around I still have the hope to go on"
  312. [01:10] * Long-shot smiles hugging Ragebrew "Even through all this... I'm always here if you ever want to talk.. vent.. anything Rage were friends" she smiles wiping her tears away and giving her a hug
  313. [01:14] * Ragebrew looks down at the floor, the last few tears splattering against it, leaving her with a trail of mud tracks down her muzzle. "I never had friends. And I never thought anyone would want to be my friend. Not that easy a pony to like." She chuckled. "And ya'll make my life so interesting. Why dig for roots and water, when I can fight a twenty foot tall mountain of corpses and live to tell the tale." She looked up at Elektron. "Y
  314. [01:14] <Ragebrew> "Ya need more than hope to make it out here. Ya need a reason as well."
  315. [01:16] * Merciful_Devotion giggles some more, using her tail to wipe Rage's tears away. "Well, now you have plenty of friends, don'tcha?"
  316. [01:16] * Long-shot nods still cuddling Rage comfortingly "Yeah, please don't feel sad or alone, were always here to help" she nods
  317. [01:19] * Ragebrew winces as she saw the trail of dirt on Mercy's tail from where she wiped her eye. "Never been alone, but yeah, nice not to be so damn sad. Last couple days have just... been hell."
  318. [01:20] * Long-shot nods looking and pointing to her fur "Yeah.. I know" she giggles
  319. [01:21] * Merciful_Devotion laughs softly. "But we're all still together, that's what counts!"
  320. [01:22] * Elektron nods in agreement with Merciful_Devotion
  321. [01:23] * Ragebrew nodded, still holding onto Long-shot in a strong hug. "Next time I see ya teleport right next to the enemy, I am gonna tan yer hide with a belt."
  322. [01:23] * Long-shot nods into Rage's fur "Yes that's right, you guys are awesome" she smiles
  323. [01:24] * Merciful_Devotion drags Elektron over so they can all snuggle together.
  324. [01:24] * Long-shot blushes at Rage "You go ahead hun, but it's not a yell of scream you'll hear, more like a moan~" she whispers into Rage's ear with a soft comforting lick holding her tight purring softly
  325. [01:25] * Elektron looks a touch uncomfortable, but join in anyway
  326. [01:27] <Merciful_Devotion> "Mmm... What say you ponies to a nice cuddle as we sleep~?"
  327. [01:29] * Ragebrew twitches once, looking at Long-shot and just jaw gaped for a moment, before pulling everyone onto the mattress with her, despite it's groan of complaint. "Never been cuddled either. Why not."
  328. [01:30] * Long-shot giggles and licks Rage's nose before murring from the pony pile and balling up very happy and comfy on Rage's chest "Night Rage, Mercy, Elektron" she whispers
  329. [01:30] * Elektron flicks his ears and shifts his eyes "You go on ahead... I'm not tired at the moment" he lied, slinking away
  330. [01:31] * Merciful_Devotion frowns a bit at Elektron, getting up to follow. "I'll be right back..." She taps his shoulder.
  331. [01:32] * Elektron stops and turns around, but is unable to look her in the eyes "Yes?"
  332. [01:32] * Merciful_Devotion frowns, her head tilted slightly to the right. "What's eating at you, hun?"
  333. [01:33] * Ragebrew strokes Long's mane a few times. "Sleep well. Breakfast will be pie."
  334. [01:35] <Elektron> "Nothing just... grabbing Long-shot's rifle. Never saw her shoot a magical energy rifle, wonder why she wants it." He said, trying to shift the subject
  335. [01:35] * Elektron places the new Plasma Carbine into Long-shots pack
  336. [01:35] * Merciful_Devotion sighs. "I don't think you're being quite truthful with me right now..."
  337. [01:36] * Long-shot purrs and nuzzles Ragebrew softly from the stroking "Mmhmm, and thanks, hun" she coos quietly going to sleep on her chest "And your kinda cute as a mare~" she whispers before blushing
  338. [01:36] <Elektron> "Wha-what makes you say that?" he asked, his eyes shifting some more
  339. [01:37] <Merciful_Devotion> "You're avoiding my questions for one, hun... You can trust me."
  340. [01:38] * Ragebrew looked at Long-shot for a moment, shaking her head. "I'm about as butch as they come. How ya find that cute is beyond me."
  341. [01:39] * Long-shot giggles and gives Ragebrew a soft nuzzle to her chest before dozing off with a quiet purr
  342. [01:39] * Elektron sighs, knowing she was onto him. He sat against a wall "I can't sleep. Everytime I close my eyes I see Ragebrew's leg blowing apart... A mine beeping under my hoof... Midnight Rider being torn apart..."
  343. [01:40] * Merciful_Devotion puts a hoof on his shoulder. "I... I'm sorry, hun..."
  344. [01:43] <Elektron> "Even working on that Carbine I couldn't distract myself... Tinkering was always my thing... and I'm loosing that too!"
  345. [01:45] * Merciful_Devotion pulls him into a tight hug. "Just... Let it out to me, okay hun? Vent..."
  346. [01:45] * Ragebrew rested propped against a wall, cuddling with Long-shot as she just ran her hoof along her mane. "When I saw that critter eat ya, thought we had lost ya." She looked over at Elektron, frowning slightly "Elektron, I can and will give my life before I let ya die, and I do this happily. Save yer tears for when I'm dead."
  347. [01:47] * Long-shot purrs not loosing her graps on Rage "I'm sorry I scared you hun.. I was terrified too.. lets just worry about me now and be happy I'm here huh?" she whispers "I'm tired Rage.. okay? I'm going to get some sleep now hun.." she nodded lightly dozing off happily on her
  348. [01:49] <Elektron> "Thats just it... I can't get these images out of my head. I went back to the Scrapyard a while after the attack to see if maybe we fought the Rangers off... but no one was there, it was a completely silent. Only the dead were still there."
  349. [01:49] * Ragebrew nodded, rearranging a bit so Long-shot could lay down and rest. "Not much for sleeping myself just yet, but I'll see ya in the morning."
  350. [01:50] * Merciful_Devotion just holds Elektron, rubbing his back.
  351. [01:50] <Elektron> "Java Wave... Midnight Rider... they... they took a flamer to Java. Roasted her like a good batch of coffee beans... how sick is that irony?"
  352. [01:50] * Long-shot smiles answering weakly "Please.. don't.. leave me.." she said softly holding him tight not wanting him to go only wanting to cuddle him as long as she could, her grip gives out after a few seconds and only her body slightly rises and falls with soft breaths as she breaths finally asleep on your chest
  353. [01:52] <Merciful_Devotion> .me frowns, giving him a gentle nuzzle. "I'm really sorry..."
  354. [01:53] * Elektron gives a little half smile "Why are you sorry? You never attacked the town, that was the Rangers."
  355. [01:54] * Ragebrew idly pets Long-shot's mane as she listened to Elektron.
  356. [01:54] * latex_dazzle ([email protected]) has left #piss_poor_group
  357. [01:54] <Merciful_Devotion> "Just... I dunno, a little empathic I guess?"
  358. [01:56] <Elektron> "Thanks, I guess. I was finally able to get some real sleep like a week ago... but seeing Rage today just brought everything back. Vividly."
  359. [02:00] * Rabtar_ ([email protected]) has joined #piss_poor_group
  360. [02:01] * Rabtar ([email protected]) Quit ( Ping timeout: 121 seconds )
  361. [02:01] * Rabtar_ is now known as Rabtar
  362. [02:07] * Ragebrew just listened to the buck. "Yer gonna have to learn to use those memories for ya, not against ya, Elektron. Anger can be a powerful tool, if used properly. Plus, we're lucky it was me, not ya, that got blown up. I doubt ya would have walked away from that."
  363. [02:08] * Merciful_Devotion nods. "I understand... I just start hearing an old lullaby my mom used to sing to me when things keep me awake..."
  364. [02:08] * Long-shot gently kicks her hindhooves cutely scooting up on Ragebrew's tummy getting higher on his chest just repositioning in her sleep
  365. [02:14] * Ragebrew wraps her hoof around Long-shot, shifting so she was comfortably leaned against the wall, a position she would be sleeping in. "Sleep well, Long-shot. Have a nice indecent dream." She gently stroked her mane long after Long had drifted off to sleep.
