  1. [2015-09-30 13:23:33] <Pink-E> Previously...
  2. [2015-09-30 13:23:40] <Pink-E> “There is nothing sacred anymore.”
  3. [2015-09-30 13:23:42] <Pink-E> ...
  4. [2015-09-30 13:24:01] <Pink-E> 3Based on the map that Get_Lost found, the school was the only possible entrance that was central to town. The other two were on the outskirts.
  5. [2015-09-30 13:24:08] <Pink-E> 3The next closest is the theatre, which is towards the north edge of town. The other is a vacant lot on the far southeastern edge.
  6. [2015-09-30 13:24:34] <Pink-E> 3CopyCat tries to remember. "I was... running somewhere. But I don't where I started or what my destination was. Um... sorry."
  7. [2015-09-30 13:24:52] <Pink-E> 3Get_Lost adds, "i was gathering parts. for robots and things. also for that motorized bike you liked, golden_dream."
  8. [2015-09-30 13:25:10] <Pink-E> 3CopyCat looks over at Golden_Dream. "So the school remains our best chance. Or at least where we should try first. Next time let's stick together. And maybe record a note for ourselves about what we're doing."
  9. [2015-09-30 13:25:23] <Pink-E> 3CopyCat smiles. "That will have to wait for morning of course. For now how about you and I try to find somewhere we might be able to cook for everyone, Golden_Dream? Shatara and Bookwright are busy making things. Perhaps Mitzi and Noble Heart can look for someplace in here where we can sleep."
  10. [2015-09-30 13:25:41] <Pink-E> 3Golden_Dream scoffs. "Not much cookin' t' be done. What we got's are MRE's.
  11. [2015-09-30 13:25:56] <Pink-E> 3Bookwright finishes his gruesome task. "We'll bury these soldiers later. Shatara, can you help me patch this armor up into some useful suits?"
  12. [2015-09-30 13:26:02] <Pink-E> 3Shatara nods, packing up reloading press and digging out the sewing kits.
  13. [2015-09-30 13:26:15] <Pink-E> 3Through the boarded-up windows is only the pitch black of a starless night. Not that the stars aren't staring down at the valley from the heavens -- the smoke just obscures them from you. And you from them.
  14. [2015-09-30 13:26:17] <Pink-E> 3...

  16. [2015-09-30 13:27:04] <Pink-E> 3--- Session Begins ---
  17. [2015-09-30 13:31:15] * Get_Lost sits and grabs parley, starts working on something on some hatches in the lower part of the beeping floating saucer
  18. [2015-09-30 13:33:56] <Pink-E> 3Outside, a low droning rises to the sound of a scream -- the sound of air raid sirens. The walls of the temple dampen and muffle the sound, but only enough to remove the painful edge of it for Mitzi.
  19. [2015-09-30 13:35:48] * Mitzi has little she can do at the moment, although... "Yu gunna buree deserve? " she asks of the zebra bodies.
  20. [2015-09-30 13:37:49] * Get_Lost calls out "hey noble, what's your favoured color?"
  21. [2015-09-30 13:39:54] <Pink-E> 3Something buzzes by just outside one of the windows.
  22. [2015-09-30 13:40:53] * Noble_Heart yawns and mumbles a little bit. "Chartreuse..."
  23. [2015-09-30 13:42:39] * Get_Lost stops for a moment, her head display start browsing colors very fast, it stops on the asked one "and green it is..."
  24. [2015-09-30 13:44:00] * Golden_Dream seems to frantically be typing something into her pipbuck. "Gotta make sure I remember-" She hears that buzzing and immediately her shotgun found purchase in her hooves. "You fuckin' skeeters get th' hell away from here, y'
  25. [2015-09-30 13:44:14] <Golden_Dream> pieces a' shit!"
  26. [2015-09-30 13:45:15] * Pink-E 3exclaims, "I don't think they can get inside. Can they?"
  27. [2015-09-30 13:45:27] * Get_Lost frowns at the wailing sound and sighs "a mare can never have fun, can she?" trots to the exit of the building and yells "SHUT! UP!"
  28. [2015-09-30 13:45:51] * Get_Lost is not really happy with it, so she adds "OR ELDE!"
  29. [2015-09-30 13:45:54] <Get_Lost> *else
  30. [2015-09-30 13:46:30] * Get_Lost she even waves her hoof.
  31. [2015-09-30 13:46:34] * Golden_Dream huffs. "I dunno, but they ain't gettin' me on th' porcelain water vacuum again!"
  32. [2015-09-30 13:46:51] * Noble_Heart looks up slightly. "The memories in the mist are attempting to attack us. Just do not open the doors or windows and we should be safe." She yawns and slumps back down again. She'd had a long day, apparently.
  33. [2015-09-30 13:46:55] * Bookwright "I really, really hope those are skeeters."
  34. [2015-09-30 13:47:51] * Shatara fidgets and glances around the room at the others.
  35. [2015-09-30 13:50:28] * Get_Lost decides for the window scene "you rascals! don't make me come down! i'm going to pop that damn ball of yours! get off my lawn! i'm serious!"
  36. [2015-09-30 13:51:15] <Pink-E> 3In the darkness outside, things -- horrible and impossible things made from balefire and bad memories -- slough their way up the street.
  37. [2015-09-30 13:52:14] <Pink-E> 3Get_Lost: can see a glowing orange light, hazy at first but swiftly becoming clearer, descend out of the smokey blackness towards the open window.
  38. [2015-09-30 13:52:36] * Get_Lost decides it is time to close the window
  39. [2015-09-30 13:54:12] <Pink-E> 3With a >thump<, the giant insect lands on the window, tapping on the glass with a stinger akin to a serrated knife.
  40. [2015-09-30 13:54:52] <Pink-E> 3The underbelly and sack of the insect glow a caustic orange.
  41. [2015-09-30 13:56:04] * Get_Lost does the only possible thing
  42. [2015-09-30 13:56:36] * Get_Lost takes pics at the insect "hey parlay! come up and take a couple of pics of me and the bug!"
  43. [2015-09-30 13:58:05] <Pink-E> 3Parlay complies.
  44. [2015-09-30 13:58:17] * Golden_Dream does the other only possible thing.
  45. [2015-09-30 13:58:46] * Get_Lost strikes poses, smiles, uses paper hats and stuff
  46. [2015-09-30 13:59:20] <Pink-E> 3The insect taps angrily on the glass. >tap< >tap< >tap<
  47. [2015-09-30 13:59:31] * Noble_Heart yawns, slumped down to get some sleep. Let the others deal with the monsters outside for now.
  48. [2015-09-30 14:00:20] * Get_Lost taps on the glass too! they are communicating, what a great bonding moment!
  49. [2015-09-30 14:02:20] <Pink-E> 3Get_Lost and Parlay are alone up in one of the towers, meaning the others do not see the bug. But both Shatara's and Golden_Dream's E.F.S. light up reading a hostile nearby.
  50. [2015-09-30 14:03:16] * Shatara yelps and spins toward the angry red spot while pumping a shell into his shotgun, instinctively searching on the vertical axis.
  51. [2015-09-30 14:03:22] * Golden_Dream starts bolting up the tower in question after circling around the area below the red dot about ten very confused times.
  52. [2015-09-30 14:03:36] * Get_Lost calls downside "HEY! THERE'S THE CUTEST ANGRY LITTLE PET UP HERE! SHE'S LOVELY!"
  53. [2015-09-30 14:07:23] <Mitzi> Mitzi perks up her ears at the shouting. "Dat not sound gud."
  54. [2015-09-30 14:08:33] <Pink-E> 3When Golden_Dream reaches the top, she finds Get_Lost standing next to the window, Parlay taking pictures. She also comes face-to-face with one of the nastier critters from back home. Fortunately, there is a sheet of thick glass between herself and the bog bug.
  55. [2015-09-30 14:09:10] <Pink-E> 3The thing seems to react to Golden_Dream's arrival, tapping more furiously. >tap< >tap< >tap< >tap< >tap< >tap<
  56. [2015-09-30 14:09:31] <Mitzi> Mitzi follows Goldie up protectively
  57. [2015-09-30 14:10:07] * Bookwright "Please do not let it in. Please."
  58. [2015-09-30 14:10:39] * Get_Lost "wow, he really hates you!"
  59. [2015-09-30 14:11:01] <Pink-E> 3Golden_Dream's first intact memory in Soles Prata was of standing in a locked lavoratory, hefting her shotgun. On the door was a splattered mess of dead insect that Golden_Dream is pretty damn sure was one of these.
  60. [2015-09-30 14:11:23] * Golden_Dream blinks. "No shit." She rubs the back of her neck. "It's a skeeter. It'll kill y' dead. And'll try t' kill y' on th' toilet. Don't ask me how I know this."
  61. [2015-09-30 14:12:28] * Get_Lost "another memory trying to assault you? you sure have quite the wagon of sad stories, do you?"
  62. [2015-09-30 14:12:38] * Mitzi looks to Golden_Dream. "Noble_Heart saw tings frum hur past dat wuz dead. Dis might be same trick."
  63. [2015-09-30 14:14:33] * Golden_Dream chuffs. "They're /too damn alive/, thanks."
  64. [2015-09-30 14:16:11] * Get_Lost looks very solit for a memory... it appears on every mean of detection i have... i'm double checking with parlay's sensors
  65. [2015-09-30 14:16:22] <Get_Lost> ""
  66. [2015-09-30 14:17:04] <Mitzi> "Dey might still be fake. Tings Noble_Heart saw broke like flameen paper. Still hurt, but fake Und flimsy."
  67. [2015-09-30 14:18:03] * Get_Lost "shooting it would break the glass... if there are more, it could become a problem. also, if somepony here has memories of pink gass, i'd like this window closed for the little it can do"
  68. [2015-09-30 14:19:33] * Golden_Dream sighs. "Yup. So, uh. Bugfriend, ya'll get t' live up here. Screw you, go back t' whatever hell spawned you, and have a day." She starts to head back downstairs.
  69. [2015-09-30 14:21:15] * Get_Lost waves bye-bye to the cute bug and follows golden downstairs "maybe next time!"
  70. [2015-09-30 14:24:00] * Mitzi follows Goldie back down
  71. [2015-09-30 14:25:05] <Pink-E> 3Outside, the buzzing of more bog bugs can be heard outside the windows.
  72. [2015-09-30 14:25:51] <Pink-E> 3Someone (or something) pounds on the front door.
  73. [2015-09-30 14:26:02] <Pink-E> 3>DOOM< >DOOM< >DOOM<
  74. [2015-09-30 14:26:17] * Get_Lost "i have the feeling that tonight we aren't going to sleep...."
  75. [2015-09-30 14:26:48] <Pink-E> 3"Hey, Failure-Flank!" a young filly's voice calls out from beyond the door. "Let us in!"
  76. [2015-09-30 14:26:52] * Get_Lost looks at the door with heat vision, trying to at least see how big is the silhouette of whatever is pounding
  77. [2015-09-30 14:27:09] * Noble_Heart sighs in annoyance. "They are just memories. And We have not seen them come come out of the dark smoke. It is best if we merely avoid them. If they could enter, they would have already."
  78. [2015-09-30 14:27:26] <Pink-E> 3The door proves too think to sense through.
  79. [2015-09-30 14:27:54] * Get_Lost frowns and steps back, mutters: "it's past dark... the door can't be opened"
  80. [2015-09-30 14:28:51] * Get_Lost it is cleqar that she's trying really har to not run at the door, but she's losing the battle
  81. [2015-09-30 14:29:49] <Pink-E> 10"Half past seven... Close the main gate. Maybe they'll be back tomorrow."
  82. [2015-09-30 14:31:40] * Get_Lost her ears are completely up, she's trying to hear anything from outside
  83. [2015-09-30 14:31:50] <Pink-E> 3Pink-E sees Get_Lost quivver. The pink sprite-bot flies down in front of here and starts playing a tune. "Hush now, quiet now..."
  84. [2015-09-30 14:31:53] * Get_Lost and is sweating, a lot
  85. [2015-09-30 14:32:15] * Get_Lost "not the gunshots...."
  86. [2015-09-30 14:32:29] * Noble_Heart looks up a little. "Golden Dream, you know how to tie someone up, yes? Now might be a good time to put those skills to use."
  87. [2015-09-30 14:32:45] <Pink-E> 3"Hey, Get_Lost... let us in, and we'll let you come back!"
  88. [2015-09-30 14:33:19] * Golden_Dream blinks. "Who needs tyin' up, and how painful does it need t' be?"
  89. [2015-09-30 14:34:12] * Get_Lost shakes her head "no, its all gone, they're not really there..."
  90. [2015-09-30 14:35:06] * Noble_Heart frowns and nods in the direction of Get Lost. "Painless preferably. But We would prefer not to have a friend make a poor decision for the right reasons."
  91. [2015-09-30 14:36:11] <Pink-E> 3"What do you think you're doin', hiding in there, kid?" the voice of Cottonseed calls from beyond the door. "Come on out here. We won't hurtcha!"
  92. [2015-09-30 14:37:47] * Get_Lost "it's... sometimes it is good to have no eyes, you know..." she's sobbing a little "at least they didn't scream..."
  93. [2015-09-30 14:38:32] <Pink-E> 3Somewhere outside, the sound of gunfire cracks through the air.
  94. [2015-09-30 14:40:22] * Golden_Dream has an /instictive/ chill go up her spine, something as raw and close to her nature as a fear of the creatures of the wild, red in tooth and claw. The fur on her withers bristled up. "SHUT THE FUCK UP, YOU SHITTY TOWN." She shouts, starting to back herself up.
  95. [2015-09-30 14:42:42] * Bookwright would like to hug Golden_Dream but is afraid he might be shot while doing it because she is so jittery. "It's just... the town. It's the town. It's doing this to us and it's not right, but it's just... a memory. It can't hurt you, or us, or anyone else you care about right now."
  96. [2015-09-30 14:43:42] * Golden_Dream 's eyes go wide. "Says you."
  97. [2015-09-30 14:44:03] * Bookwright nods. "Says me."
  98. [2015-09-30 14:44:32] * Bookwright "I can't, er, guarantee anything about what will happen if we open a door or window, but... for Right Now, we're safe."
  99. [2015-09-30 14:44:46] * Get_Lost "yes, it's exactly that, i say that too! it's not that our patrol is getting butchered because i was told not to open the door..." her voice is as resolute as a routing army
  100. [2015-09-30 14:45:42] * Mitzi moves in front of the door, currently unplagued by any voices or foul memories calling to her. "Uh'll keep yu frum slippeen up," She says, crossing her arms as she stands there like a bouncer.
  101. [2015-09-30 14:49:21] * Get_Lost doesn't look at the door, whispers "thank you"
  102. [2015-09-30 14:50:32] * Shatara fidgets a bit, pondering on not having seen any of his own past demons. He optimistically speculates that maybe the magic doesn't work on gryphons...?
  103. [2015-09-30 14:51:29] <Pink-E> 3>DOOM< >DOOM< >DOOM<
  104. [2015-09-30 14:52:53] * Get_Lost holds breath
  105. [2015-09-30 14:53:55] <Pink-E> 3"Mitzi? You in there?"
  106. [2015-09-30 14:54:09] * Mitzi blinks, cocking an ear but keeping her back to the door
  107. [2015-09-30 14:56:08] <Pink-E> 3The voice is only vaguely familiar, and too pony in speech patterns to be a hellhound. "Mitzi, don't be afraid. Your daddy's angry... but he'll get over it."
  108. [2015-09-30 14:56:49] * Mitzi blinks. She didn't recognize the voice. A memory she had forgotten maybe? But still, that's what the ponies keep saying. They were memories.
  109. [2015-09-30 14:59:43] <Pink-E> 3"It's not that it doesn't work on gryphons," a voice says softly from the shadows. "It's that you don't wear your pain like a holster. Or keep it all bottled up, ready to explode like a proximity mine."
  110. [2015-09-30 15:00:33] <Pink-E> 3"Come out and see your sister's puppies, Mitzi. They're all here."
  111. [2015-09-30 15:02:46] * Mitzi scoffs at the voices. "Gigi eez not stupeed. She know bettur den to take pups away from home before dey open dere eyes."
  112. [2015-09-30 15:03:53] <Pink-E> 3The voice sound sad. "They're... they're never going to open their eyes, Mitzi. That's why they're here. With us."
  113. [2015-09-30 15:03:56] <Pink-E> 3"Come see."
  114. [2015-09-30 15:04:53] * Mitzi shakes her head, "Nope."
  115. [2015-09-30 15:05:30] * Noble_Heart looks up in the direction of the voice coming from the shadows. It was worrying that it would come from inside.
  116. [2015-09-30 15:06:03] <Pink-E> 3A faint, pinkish mist seeps from the shadows near Shatara.
  117. [2015-09-30 15:09:02] * Shatara yelps and shuffles back into the upper corner of the room, waving his shotgun innefectually at the strange voices and the pink mist. "W-what?!"
  118. [2015-09-30 15:09:31] <Pink-E> 3"You don't give the spirits much to play with," the voice in the shadows... a familiar voice... tells Shatara. "Hard for them to find the right toys."
  119. [2015-09-30 15:12:41] * Noble_Heart ascends to her hooves quickly, in a mild panic. Whatever hopes of sleep she had quickly being removed. "It's the griffin from Luna's School." She could think of no other voice to come from pink mist which might be problematic for Shatara.
  120. [2015-09-30 15:15:52] <Pink-E> 3"Oh, but when they do... your memories know necromancy." Bonaparte steps out from (or, perhaps, through) the shadows in the corner of the Temple. "And that lets us get /inside/."
  121. [2015-09-30 15:19:30] <Pink-E> 3The preacher gryphon smiles as he locks eyes with Shatara. "You really should have taken the Reaper up on Its offer."
  122. [2015-09-30 15:22:01] * Shatara curls back in the corner in defiance of gravity. "Th-there's no good to come out of that kind of pact..." His talons twitch against Blood's forearm, a weapon ironically sired by just such a pact.
  123. [2015-09-30 15:36:54] <Pink-E> 3"Define 'good'," Bonaparte retorts, stepping fully into the temple and stretching his wings.
  124. [2015-09-30 15:45:04] <Pink-E> 3Bonapart lowers his wings abruptly, and two bog bugs fly out of the shadows. "Better yet, explain it to my friends."
  125. [2015-09-30 15:45:20] * Noble_Heart regards Bonaparte. She scowled slightly at the griffin's appearance here. Certainly there were problems to be had now.
  126. [2015-09-30 15:45:33] <Pink-E> 3Bonaparte chuckles deeply, "I have so many friends now."
  127. [2015-09-30 15:46:57] * Noble_Heart shook her head. "You are a fiction. An unreality, born of a memory replicated by a megaspell's long-term decay. A figment of a figment."
  128. [2015-09-30 15:49:28] <Pink-E> 3Bonaparte replies, "We are all but figments."
  129. [2015-09-30 15:49:40] * Bookwright "It is a fiction given shape and substance by the spirits of memories in this town."
  130. [2015-09-30 15:51:40] <Pink-E> 3The bugs zip around the room, moving so fast they are little more than glowing blurs. Blurs that fire out jagged and insanely sharp barbs, filling the air with them.
  131. [2015-09-30 15:52:16] * Golden_Dream draws her gun, eyes darting left and right. "I dunno, there. Seems awful real."
  132. [2015-09-30 15:55:52] * Bookwright "The bugs a probably real though!"
  133. [2015-09-30 15:59:29] * Noble_Heart frowned as her horn glowed purple, her shield shimmering into existence around her. "The bugs are a memory of Golden Dream's. That does not mean they cannot hurt you. Merely that they are not real. Just a reflection, empowered by magic." She pressed her horn against her shield and fired a lance of electrical energy at Bonaparte.
  134. [2015-09-30 16:09:45] * Golden_Dream looks wild at Shatara. "Shatara, if you got some of them crazy new shells, now'd be a great time t' use it."
  135. [2015-09-30 16:14:10] <Mitzi> Mitzi frowns at the stinging of the barbs. "Dat rude." She pulls out her plasma rifle.
  136. [2015-09-30 16:17:29] * Shatara tracks the fast-moving targets with his shotgun, having only vanilla buckshot loaded at the moment, and fires.
  137. [2015-09-30 16:18:51] <Pink-E> 3The barbs are like the claws of hellhounds, and pierce through the party's armor like it was tissue paper. Only Noble_Heart's shield protects her, keeping her safe from the potent poison they deliver.
  138. [2015-09-30 16:28:25] * Mitzi gives a frustrated grunt as she is pierced. It didn't hurt that much, but she felt kinda woozy
  139. [2015-09-30 16:41:27] <Pink-E> 3Shatara fires at one of the two bog bugs, and the bug explodes in a flare of toxic orange light. Bits of it fall to the floor, leaving trails of salmon-colored steam in the air.
  140. [2015-09-30 16:42:39] <Pink-E> 3(Golden_Dream is aware that is not how real bog bugs die. They tend to be a little harder to put down. And a lot less explode-y.)
  141. [2015-09-30 16:45:01] * Mitzi smirks and looks to Golden_Dream, "Told yu dey like paper."
  142. [2015-09-30 16:45:04] * Golden_Dream immediately takes a hit. Three. She knew she had only a few seconds to stay up. Staying up keeps her alive. She likes being alive. She began to sprint for one of the planters and goes for something in the pouch around her neck. With an inarticulate, numbed screech, she (overdramatically?) plants
  143. [2015-09-30 16:45:08] <Pink-E> 3A moment later, those who were poisoned by the bug feel the poison within them erupt and burn away.
  144. [2015-09-30 16:45:10] <Golden_Dream> a tree seed.

  146. [2015-09-30 16:45:57] * Shatara shifts his aim to the next apparitionbug, giving it a blam or two as well.
  147. [2015-09-30 16:49:48] <Pink-E> 3With Shatara's second shot, the other bog bug is torn from the sky, likewise erupting into a ball of orange nastiness that leaves traces of toxin in the air as bug bits rain down.
  148. [2015-09-30 16:50:17] <Pink-E> 3And again, the poison in the gryphon and his companions ignites painfully and seers away inside them.
  149. [2015-09-30 16:52:59] * Shatara pumps his shotgun again, his aim now shifting to the last threat in the room...and hesitates. He wasn't exactly friends with the older gryphon whose form appeared before him, but he strongly suspected his testimony was the reason he was alive in the wastes, and not being fed to the recyclers...but the searing pain from the poison in his veins reminded him that this was not
  150. [2015-09-30 16:52:59] * Shatara that gryphon, but a malevolent doppleganger, and his trigger finger tightened once more.
  151. [2015-09-30 16:55:50] <Pink-E> 3Shatara's shot tears through the false Bonaparte, leaving a gaping tear where it passes. Through the tear, pink mist pours out. Bonaparte staggers.
  152. [2015-09-30 16:57:29] * Noble_Heart frowned as her horn glowed purple, her shield shimmering into existence around her. "The bugs are a memory of Golden Dream's. That does not mean they cannot hurt you. Merely that they are not real. Just a reflection, empowered by magic." She pressed her horn against her shield and fired a lance of electrical energy at Bonaparte.
  153. [2015-09-30 16:58:10] * Golden_Dream heaves her breath, holding a seed in her hoof. She hesitated. She felt some of the burn leave her veins.
  154. [2015-09-30 17:01:41] <Pink-E> 3The gryphon raises talons towards Noble_Heart, calling out in a low and gravelly voice, "Damnum reflexionem!"
  155. [2015-09-30 17:04:56] <Pink-E> 3The lightning arcs across the room, curving and striking the necromantic gryphon's talons. A dark vein, a flash of black electricity, is reflected back up through the arc, striking Noble_Heart's horn... in the second before the alicorn's lightning shreds the memory apparition in a blinding white light. Bonaparte explodes into pink mist that washes outward.
  156. [2015-09-30 17:07:09] * Noble_Heart grunts in pain and winces as the black lightning arcs down her horn. It was not a pleasant night at all. But at least her spell had worked.
  157. [2015-09-30 17:07:31] * Golden_Dream holds the seed in her hoof... And then puts it away. "It's... Over?"
  158. [2015-09-30 17:09:29] * Mitzi slumps as she slips the rifle back over her back, looking like she's having a hard time supporting her own weight.
  159. [2015-09-30 17:13:02] <Pink-E> 3Outside, the sirens have silenced. There are no more knocks on the doors.
  160. [2015-09-30 17:13:48] * Noble_Heart frowns as she backs away from the pink mist. "It seems, for the moment, we are triumphant." She looked to her companions and their drained, poisoned and exhausted states. "You should rest. We will stand guard tonight. In the event of further incursions."
  161. [2015-09-30 17:14:02] * Shatara feels the strength seeping out of him, collapsing to the corner below the corner he was backed into.
  162. [2015-09-30 17:17:37] * Shatara sits up as the pain melts away, still looking rather exhausted.
  163. [2015-09-30 17:18:38] * Pink-E 3announces, "You guys need happier memories!"
  164. [2015-09-30 17:18:55] * Bookwright "I wonder why it didn't try to draw anything from my memories?"
  165. [2015-09-30 17:19:25] * Bookwright scoffs. "Hah. 'It'. As if there is only one thing out there."
  166. [2015-09-30 17:23:02] * Noble_Heart contemplates that. "Perhaps they have not found something sufficiently damaging yet?" She frowns. "We have seen little of Our memory as well. For which We are thankful."
  167. [2015-09-30 17:29:14] * Shatara mrfs quietly. "I guess Kid would have a monopoly on the horrifying creatures..."
  168. [2015-09-30 17:44:43] * Pink-E 3looks at Golden_Dream. "They have those where you live? Why would anypony live there?!" She beeps. "Give me giant battle ewes any day!"
  169. [2015-09-30 17:45:51] * Golden_Dream frowns, then shuffles a leg. "I didn't have much of a choice. M' folks... They didn't either." She stayed oddly silent.
  170. [2015-09-30 17:46:58] * Golden_Dream is quiet for a moment longer, then tries to fight back. "Hey, I don't- Hey! I'd have y' know I'm even goin' back after all this! It's nice sometimes, when yer' near town and th' fog ain't too thick."
  171. [2015-09-30 17:47:19] * Noble_Heart looks down to Golden Dream sadly. "We doubt any of those who live in Froggy Bottom do so by choice. It is not a pleasant place, or so We have heard."
  172. [2015-09-30 17:51:28] * Bookwright "I would like to visit Froggy Bottom sometime."
  173. [2015-09-30 17:54:57] * Bookwright "Perhaps when we go our separate ways, I'll follow Golden Dream back to the old folks at home. Er, metaphorically speaking."
  174. [2015-09-30 17:55:22] <Pink-E> 3Pink-E manages to sound astounded. "Why? Why would you go there?"
  175. [2015-09-30 17:56:24] * Bookwright "Because it sounds interesting! If Golden Dream wants to go back surely there are stories, tales, legends, music, and recipes worth preserving. Not that I'm implying that there are things of that variety not worth preserving of course."
  176. [2015-09-30 17:56:25] * Pink-E 3then says, "Oh... well, because Golden_Dream is there, of course! Friends brave anything for friendship!"
  177. [2015-09-30 17:57:02] * Pink-E 3seems happier with her answer than the real one.
  178. [2015-09-30 17:58:15] * Noble_Heart sighs quietly. "We hope that tomorrow will be more peaceful than tonight. The spirits of this place seem particularly angry tonight."
  179. [2015-09-30 17:58:16] * Golden_Dream pauses. And then frowns. She... Honestly didn't want to ruin it for her. Not the element of honesty and all. What was it that the current one said? "Sometimes being honest means knowing when not to be?"
  180. [2015-09-30 17:58:24] * Bookwright "And yes, it'll be nice to be near a friend. If she'll have me, anyways."
  181. [2015-09-30 17:58:51] * Bookwright thinks that Pink-E has a particularly colored view of the world.
  182. [2015-09-30 17:59:26] <Pink-E> 3--- End of Session ---
