FoE PNP Group Unlucky 13 Session 71

[14:03] <TenMihara|GM> *****PnP Group 13, Hoofington Sucks: Session 71*****
[14:03] <TenMihara|GM> Regret
[14:03] <TenMihara|GM> Everypony has things they wish they had done
[14:03] <TenMihara|GM> Or perhaps things they had done better, or sooner
[14:04] <TenMihara|GM> In the wasteland, there is no life without regrets
[14:05] <TenMihara|GM> Everything you do has a cost, whether for you or someone else
[14:06] <TenMihara|GM> You either have to give up time and effort to ensure your survival
[14:06] <TenMihara|GM> Or you have to give up things you value in order to obtain things you need
[14:07] <TenMihara|GM> More often than not, regret comes from the feeling that you got more than you bargained for
[14:07] <TenMihara|GM> or less
[14:07] <TenMihara|GM> Will our wastelanders be able to handle their own regrets
[14:09] <TenMihara|GM> or are they doomed to keep on losing the game of life?
[14:09] <TenMihara|GM> I guess we'll find out...
[14:09] <TenMihara|GM> *****Session Begins*****
[14:14] * Purple_Kay looks between Logic and Razor. "What'll it be? We're losing time."
[14:16] * Proverb is resting.
[14:16] <TenMihara|GM> Daisy and Green remained at the Collegiate while waiting to see the results of the blood tests for Proverb's potential transplant, while Purple_Kay, Razor, and Logic debate how to proceed in regards to Missile's assailants
[14:19] <TenMihara|GM> Daisy sighs and leans against Green_Field, tired
[14:20] * Razor isn't really debating. She's not a debating sort of pony in the first place, and now she's angry, and drugged up!
[14:25] * Green_Field continues heading toward their room. "I wish she was too. Too many ponies I wish I could have saved."
[14:27] <TenMihara|GM> Daisy hangs her head a bit, "She was long gone by the time my friend and I got away."
[14:31] * Green_Field unlocks their door and takes her inside. "Shame."
[14:31] <TenMihara|GM> Daisy nods, "They sold her a long time ago." She flops into the bed, exhausted, and on the verge of tears.
[14:35] * Green_Field sits down with her and puts his hooves around her, pulling her close. "She'd be proud of you, I'm sure."
[14:36] <TenMihara|GM> Daisy cuddles close to Green_Field, and just cries.
[14:37] <TenMihara|GM> Logic shakes his head, "I -could- do it, but right now, she's in way too stupid a condition to be doing anything."
[14:39] * Green_Field just holds Daisy. It's good to get shit out.
[14:40] * Purple_Kay shakes his head and sighs. It's the logical call... it's his name afterall... but he can't help but feel if they could get up there they could find the pegasi before they get too far... "I guess that's that then..." He's at a loss at what to say.
[14:41] * Razor gives an annoyed growl. "Who are you calling stupid!?"
[14:42] <TenMihara|GM> Logic looks at Razor, then shakes his head. He looks back to Purple_Kay, "The last thing we want is to lose more of us."
[14:43] * Purple_Kay steps between the two. Razor's in a bad way in a /lot/ of ways. "If we're going hunting soon, I need more grenades..." He considers his best arguments... "If we're going to get to killin', we need to be ready." He takes a half-step toward Megamart, still keeping between the two.
[15:02] * Razor doesn't budge! "We have to do SOMETHING!"
[15:02] * Green_Field pats Daisy once she's cried herself out. "You could use some rest. We can worry about things tomorrow."
[15:02] <TenMihara|GM> Daisy sniffles and nods, curling up and quickly falling asleep
[15:03] * Proverb is lonely
[15:03] * Purple_Kay steps up to her. "We can't get up there without magic, and it doesn't look like we are going to get it. What we /can/ do is get ready to murder those bastards when we /can/ get to them."
[15:07] * Green_Field sighs and joins Daisy once he's gotten his gear off. He curls up with her and holds her, finding sleep after his restless mind final quits contemplating options concerning Proverb and wishing he could reunite Daisy with her mother.
[15:07] <Green_Field> finally*
[15:12] * Logic_Gates exhales, then stares at Razor. "Okay." He fetched a folder from his things. "According to this info from Proverb, they have at least fifty powered armor units when you get up there. Let's assume that five are quick responders because /why the hell would you have patrols and not keep radio contact/. How do you think you're going to deal with five flying targets when all I've seen that you do is melee combat?"
[15:14] * Logic_Gates rolls his eyes. "/Nonetheless/ five powered armored fuckers with guns. What's your plan to not end up pasted?"
[15:15] * Razor isn't really a rational pony right now! She snorts at Logic. "I'll get them! All of them! Every last one! Cut them open... And. Cut their wings off! All of them!"
[15:15] * Purple_Kay "Well, escape would be mine. If you're as good as I know you are, G, you could get us away from them with a thought if we ran into anypony but the one's we are after."
[15:20] * Logic_Gates rubs his mane. "Yeah, exactly. If we run into any resistance, we're fucked because more is on the way. It's better to make this a hit and run assassination job where we can fight with the element of surprise instead of a fucking pony on pony brawl because we will lose that fight."
[15:21] * Purple_Kay sighs. "You're the colt with the spell, G. Take us somewhere, we can at least all agree standing here in the open isn't a good idea."
[15:22] * Logic_Gates lowers his eyelids. "Numbers are not on our side. We need to be smart and think with our brains, not our ovaries about this if we're not going to end up stupid red mist on the clouds." Aaand Pop, back to the Megamart.
[15:25] * Purple_Kay stays between the two, figuring Razor might not be too pleased about where they've ended up.
[15:31] * Razor is very disoriented coming out of that teleport. It takes her a few moments to get her bearings, but when she does, she growls. "The fuck! Is your problem!?"
[15:34] * Purple_Kay takes a good look at Razor... with that armor and all... so much must have happened. The suits from the hit squad weigh heavy across his back. "Kid... Razor... I'm on your side, I'm /always/ on your side, but you need to come down. Let's head to the room. You want to get them? I think I can make you more deadly."
[15:36] * Logic_Gates looks at Purple Kay. "I need the helmets. If there's any sort of ID recognition built into the suit, I could maybe fake credentials to fool automated defenses."
[15:38] * Purple_Kay doesn't look back to answer, "Take them." The suits are just sloppily bundled across his back.
[15:40] * Razor isn't going to be persuaded to give up, but /that's/ one thing that gets her attention. "What? How! Tell me!" She likes the idea of being more deadly. It means she can better cut those turkeys!
[15:41] * Logic_Gates sighs. "I'll be back." His voice seemed to waver, and he popped out of existence back to the collegiate.
[15:43] * Purple_Kay at least found a way to cut through the haze. "I think I can modify a suit to fit you. Could even power it later when I've got the time to train you properly. I know you like trophies, Kid, what better image for them to see when we come for them than you wearing the 'skin' of the last ignorant fucks to attack us?"
[15:53] * Logic_Gates sort of wandered about aimlessly through the hallways, just trying to clear his head. He wanted to bang his head on a wall somewhere for a good thirty minutes or so, but he didn't want to leave a hole in it.
[15:53] <TenMihara|GM> Logic still had his own room for head banging if desired
[15:55] * Razor likes the idea of that. "Yeah. And. It'll make me more deadly, you said. Right?"
[15:56] * Purple_Kay nods and starts heading toward his room. "Very much so, especially once we've had some time to train you in it. I'll leave it unpowered until we get a moment to run you through all the neat little extras. You'll be more deadly, and it will be one heck of a look, too."
[15:59] * Purple_Kay gets to the mechanical stuff, giving Razor some time to come down and measuring her to modify the sniper's enclave armor to fit her. He leaves it unpowered for now, there will be time to switch it on later. When he's done, a good bit of time has passed and it looks very intimidating with the tramplers incorporated into the forehooves and that wicked looking tail.
[16:02] * Razor has a very hard time standing still. She's very twitchy, and feels like she should keep moving /all the time/. It makes it very hard to get the measurements.
[16:03] * Logic_Gates goes to his room to feel useless for a while after his legs decided that they had enough walking today. It took a little while. It felt as if moving would keep the thoughts away for a while.
[16:06] * Purple_Kay brings over the finished work, standing it there for her. His mechanical arm scratches at his chin as he gives it a walk around. His mechanical arm having been unfurled for the building process. He nods. "That'll do. Get out of those skins and lets get you in this. Armor like this can be tricky to don."
[16:14] * Razor gets herself out of her Ponyhide armor, with almost a manic eagerness! "Okay. How do I put it on!?"
[16:18] * Purple_Kay pops a series of latches. "Powered, it would fold out on it's own, but basically you just need to crack open the back and wiggle in from the top. If that's a pain, you can put on the hindquarter first and then step into the forequarter." He goes over the latches and things with her. "Just be mindful of your tail."
[16:25] * Logic_Gates gets in his bed and stares up at the ceiling for a while. Once again, he's seen a pony die. The greatest hacker in Hoofington can't even hack into his old home terminal without tripping an alarm. Magician of the Collegiate can't even pop his friends out of the way before they get killed.
[16:25] * Razor gives it a shot. It takes her... quite a while to even manage to get into it half successfully. She has little to no coordination, so it's practically a mess of misplaced limbs, and she's too distracted to be mindful of her tail.
[16:27] * Purple_Kay watches for all of three seconds before moving to a hoofs on approach. He does his best to guide her limbs in the right place, and they eventually get her suited up.
[16:43] * Purple_Kay gives her rump a little push to get it down in the hindquarters and finally latches her in. "There... How's it move? Hitching anywhere?"
[16:44] * Razor thinks this feels very strange. It's so heavy! She gives moving around a shot, though.
[16:46] * Purple_Kay smiles. He does good work. "Picture of deadly grace, Kid. It'll move easier when I power it up, but we'll need to take some time to get you familiar with all the electronics before we can do that." He chuckles. "You look great, Killer. Anything else you need touched up? We can set out in the morning, the others will probably find us by then."
[16:57] * Razor has to think for a moment. But after a few moments she takes her weapons out to show Purple_Kay. "Uh. Have a look?"
[17:00] * Purple_Kay puts the throwing knives to the side, nothing to do with those. He looks at the zebra sword and Razor's Edge. "I think I could incorporate the look of the machete into it a bit, hone the balance. You'd see notable improvement." He looks over at her pack and to the nice looking box about the size of a sword. "What's in the box? Decorative sword?" He moves toward her bag.
[17:01] * Proverb is in a restless sleep.
[17:03] * Proverb is tossing and turning on the table, whimpering.
[17:06] * Green_Field wakes up from a light sleep himself and sits up. He looks down at Daisy. He's given her so much yet it's never enough.
[17:06] * Proverb kicks her hindlegs a bit, before wrapping her wings around herself, sniffling.
[17:07] * Green_Field shakes his head and gets out of bed. A walk'll do him good. He kisses Daisy gently then heads out.
[17:09] <TenMihara|GM> Triage sees Proverb rustling and prods her awake. "Hey. I know you should be resting and all, but the tests just finished."
[17:10] * Proverb jerks awake with a yelp, looking around wide-eyed. "D-Dad!?"
[17:10] * Green_Field starts to wander aimlessly before turning toward where Proverb is. May as well check on her since he's up.
[17:12] <TenMihara|GM> Triage blinks, "Uh, no."
[17:12] <TenMihara|GM> Daisy remains asleep, she was dead tired
[17:13] * Razor grabs her bag in her telekinesis. She snorts. "It belonged to the Reaper whose place I took." She makes sure to hold the bag away from him. "Not a weapon."
[17:14] * Purple_Kay shrugs. "Fair enough. You want me to use your machete for parts for your sword, or do you wanna keep it and go buy a cheap machete to use?"
[17:14] * Proverb whimpers sniffling as she wipes at her teary eye with a hoof, holding herself with her wings.
[17:15] * Green_Field finds his way there and sees Proverb and Triage.
[17:16] <TenMihara|GM> Triage looks up to Green_Field as he enters, "She was stirring, so I woke her to say the tests just finished. I was gonna check the results."
[17:16] * Razor eyes the machete. She is a little bit attached to it. "Would it be better?"
[17:17] * Purple_Kay nods. "Yeah, but it wouldn't matter if we use this one or buy a cheap one and use it. Let's trot on out and get a used machete from somewhere. A bit of movement will help catch anyplace it binds." He heads out the door to go buy a machete on the cheap.
[17:18] * Green_Field walks over and nods. "I couldn't sleep. Figured I'd check on her."
[17:18] * Proverb is crying quietly.
[17:19] <TenMihara|GM> Purple_Kay has a bit of trouble finding a vendor still up, but apparently there's at least one insomniac arms dealer
[17:21] * Purple_Kay thanks the vendor and heads back. Once inside, he takes a moment to doff his armor. It looks like they won't be leaving the walls tonight. He starts working on the sword. "LIttle trot shake anything loose? Still fitting alright?"
[17:22] * Razor is having a bit of a rough time moving around. "I feel so... slow. It's heavy."
[17:23] * Green_Field puts a hoof on Proverb's shoulder. "Don't worry, Proverb, we'll get you fixed up. You've got the two best doctor's around here to do it."
[17:25] * Proverb sniffles softly. "I w-want H-Harmy..."
[17:25] * Purple_Kay worms his way out of his armor, his morning stretches paid off! "It will until it's powered. Light suit like that will move nice once it can carry some of its own weight. Stick with me, Kid, I'll get you qualified for it in no time." He steps over and starts flipping latches. "Let's get you out of it for now, no reason to stay in it. Looks like it'll be morning before we head out."
[17:26] * Razor is hesitant about that. She simply says, "I don't like being exposed."
[17:27] * Green_Field 's ears flatten. "I sorry, Proverb, she's in Megamart and i don't have enough energy left to go get her."
[17:28] * Proverb presses her face into Green_Field's chest and just cries.
[17:29] * Purple_Kay keeps flipping latches. "Then slip into something more comfortable, this suit isn't something you can sleep in, even with your predisposition to sleeping in armor."
[17:32] * Green_Field puts his hooves around Proverb and holds her gently.
[17:35] * Proverb nuzzles into Green_Field's coat, whimpering as she dries her tears. "I j-just want t-to tell her I l-love her again... I... I can't... I... can't not b-be with her anymore..."
[17:37] * Purple_Kay pops the last latch so the back opens up. "Now, do you need a hoof again?" He offers to help, cause he's a gentlestallion.
[17:39] <Green_Field> "I'm sorry, but I can't help right now. You'll be able to tell her later. You'll even be able to with a new leg and lung." He offers Proverb a smile.
[17:42] <TenMihara|GM> Triage comes back from looking at her machine, "So there is a match for blood type with one of these other pegasi."
[17:43] * Proverb sniffles, nodding to Green_Field. "O-Okay."
[17:43] * Green_Field looks at Triage. "How soon can we do it tomorrow?"
[17:47] * Razor gives it a shot getting out of it on her own before accepting help. She's still not really happy about having to get in and out of it all the damn time, but she'll keep her Ponyhide for when she can't wear this one.
[17:49] * Purple_Kay gives her help is she needs it. "I'll get this fixed up, then we can hit the hay." He steps back to the workbench and starts working on the sword. "We haven't had a lick of time alone. Seems like a lot happened while I was recovering."
[17:49] <TenMihara|GM> Triage nods, "Yeah. She should be a little better rested for it though. It won't be any less invasive than fixing her heart was. At least this time she's got a spare eh?" She gives a soft smirk
[17:51] * Green_Field nods. "We should do just fine."
[17:51] * Razor gets back into her Ponyhide once she manages to get out of the other armor.
[17:52] <TenMihara|GM> Triage walks over to the morgue to double check which one the blood match was with, indicating the corpse of Fire Wind to Green_Field
[17:53] * Logic_Gates gets up and wanders over to the medical lab. He looks like hell.
[17:56] * Green_Field chuckles. "Fitting."
[17:56] <TenMihara|GM> Triage nods, "Yeah, one of his lungs was collapsed, but the other one is good enough to save." She then blinks, "Wait, fitting?"
[17:57] * Proverb stares at Fire Wind's corpse, and then sighs. "We used to be best friends believe it or not... I saved his life more times than I could count... suppose this means we're even."
[17:58] <Green_Field> "Suppose it does. He was the one that gave her the death blow."
[17:58] <TenMihara|GM> Triage winces, "Well, that's the wasteland for you I guess."
[17:58] <RadioHooves> If Missile could speak, he would comment on the irony.
[17:58] <TenMihara|GM> Missile is dead
[18:01] * Logic_Gates looks sunken eyed and forlorn. His eyes were rounded by dark circles as he looked through the window.
[18:02] <TenMihara|GM> Triage points to the window, "One of your friends is here."
[18:06] * Green_Field looks at Logic_Gates. "Hey, Logic. You alright? You don't look well."
[18:07] * Logic_Gates looks up slowly to Green. "Worried." He mentioned, looking back into the operating room.
[18:08] <Green_Field> "About what?"
[18:10] * Logic_Gates looks back inside. "Her. Me. Us. Whatever."
[18:11] * Purple_Kay smirks as he works. "I mean, you've got mystery boxes and Reaper armor..." He sombers. "...and you found her... all while I was gone... I'm sorry, Razor, I should have been there."
[18:16] * Razor frowns. "It happening was... what gave me the drive to do it. Right then. And everything happened all at once!"
[18:17] * Proverb looks over at Logic_Gates, waving a bit.
[18:17] * Logic_Gates waves back weakly. "I'm having a crisis of competence, here."
[18:18] * Green_Field nods to Logic_Gates. "Well, if you want to talk about anything, I'll be around."
[18:18] * Green_Field blinks. "You are?"
[18:18] * Purple_Kay glances back, his mechanical arm twirling a spanner. "I'm proud of you, just wish I'd been there... but I'm here again now, just like it should be."
[18:23] * Logic_Gates just kind of continues staring at the window. At this point, it's difficult to say if he's looking at Proverb, or his own reflection. "I'm the greatest hacker in Hoofington, and I screwed up at not fucking up my own home terminal. I'm a big powerful wizard, and I can't stop my friends from dying all the time. I'm a smart pony, but I don't know what to do from here."
[18:25] * Logic_Gates smacks his lips. "I thought having a cutie mark would mean that I'd finally figured myself out. On that, I know I was wrong now, at least."
[18:26] <Green_Field> "Being great is not never failing. And, part of growing up is learning that when you do, they don't give you a book with life's answers in it."
[18:27] * Purple_Kay works the sword into fine form, honing it to a perfect edge, the gem nearly hums with energy. He holds it up then out, the balance is just a bit tip heavy, better for the slashes she prefers.
[18:31] * Logic_Gates sighs, then goes back to his room. "So, what am I going to be wrong about tomorrow?"
[18:33] * Green_Field sighs and watches him leave. Too many problems...
[18:35] * Razor doesn't have much to say about that. She's not really the sentimental type... But she's content to spend the time with Purple_Kay.
[18:36] <TenMihara|GM> Triage looks to Proverb, "Get some more rest and save your strength for the operation."
[18:36] * Proverb ndos to Triage, curling up.
[18:36] * Purple_Kay looks back to her with a smile. "Catch." He tosses the sword her way, she'll catch it. He's pretty confident of that.
[18:46] * Logic_Gates goes back to  his room and proceeds to hide underneath the covers.
[18:46] * Razor looks up to grab the sword in her telekinesis. She gives it a look over.
[18:47] * Green_Field pats Proverb. "Have a good sleep if you can. I'll be back in the morning to fix you up." He offers a smile again.
[18:48] * Purple_Kay grins as she eyes it, similar scrolling being added to the blade to the one's he engraved onto Razor's Edge. These have a bit more of a lightningbolt look to them, which is fitting. He yawns and rolls his neck. "What do you think? Pass muster?"
[18:49] * Proverb nods to Green_Field, curling up tighter and whimpering.
[18:50] * Green_Field nods to Triage before taking his leave. "You too. I'm going to need you in top shape tomorrow."
[18:54] * Razor nods. "It's... fancy. Looks impressive!"
[18:55] * Purple_Kay chuckles. "Of course it's impressive, I made it." He grins and move over toward the bed, it's gotten late on them. He turns down the sheet. "Should probably turn in, big hunt tomorrow."
[18:59] <TenMihara|GM> Triage nods, "I know. Just figured I should stat up and get the test results first." She makes her way over to her own little sleeping nook
[19:03] * Green_Field heads back to his room and kisses Daisy again before getting in bed with her to try sleeping again.
[19:05] * Razor stores her sword away, along with the rest of her things. "I have some things I need to sell... I've got a ton of junk I need to get rid of."
[19:07] * Purple_Kay nods. "We'll sell it first thing in the morning, I doubt that weapon vendor is still open and everything else was closed down." He sits on the edge of the bed  and folds his mechanical arm up against his chest.
[19:16] * Purple_Kay rolls into the bed, pulling back the sheets on the opposite side of him.
[19:19] * Razor settles herself in to sleep. It's... strange to have Kay there again... but she's happy he's here.
[19:21] * Purple_Kay pulls the sheet up with his foreleg, draping both over her. "I'm here, Razor, if you need anything..." There's so much in the air... she needs to know his ears work just fine.
