  12. [2015-06-20 22:10:15]* Marshal_Cookies grand has mostly just been working on obtaining some pipe and cutting it down to the right size with a hacksaw he has perchased, with Heartshoes clearance he has been trading for what he needs with the Groups limited scrap recovered from the dome.
  13. [2015-06-20 22:10:36]* Golden_Brass has been testing the acoustics in the town square. It looks like she's talking to herself, but anyone at least marginally well-versed in literature can recognize she's monologuing.
  14. [2015-06-20 22:10:54]* Observer is now known as Pony_95155
  15. [2015-06-20 22:12:11]* Marshal_Cookies Copper Shine has been helping Wingnut dig the rusty old vehical frames out of his mounds of scrap and parts, The foals help as best as they can.
  16. [2015-06-20 22:13:24]* Azshkazar has quit (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)
  17. [2015-06-20 22:13:26]* Hummel simply strolls around town inconsequentially...since the rest of the crew was probably going to take their sweet time on prepping up, he might as well check on something that has been itching him ever since. With that in mind, he set out to find the mayor...at this rate, the others probably already were done with him.
  18. [2015-06-20 22:14:11]* Emerald_Rose can be found in the pit, wearing overalls and smeared in grease as she helps where she can. She'll primarily keep an eye on the foals, making sure they aren't making too much trouble and being good helpers.
  19. [2015-06-20 22:14:56]* Azshkazar (bobobo878@Pony-kvf.6hm.108.206.IP) has joined

  22. [2015-06-20 22:16:15]* Bellator stays behind on the ship, napping away the day in preparation for the fight to come
  23. [2015-06-20 22:17:20]* Marshal_Cookies Wingnut looks to the now be-overalled templar and inquires which they should focus on first.
  24. [2015-06-20 22:18:22]* Marshal_Cookies Golden Brass can fine easily that the best place to put on a show would be around the market. as it has the most space availible (with shy taking up a lot of room in the only other large open space) and its location.
  25. [2015-06-20 22:18:36]* Marshal_Cookies otherwise there is also the bar, which has a stage, and even a few stage lights
  26. [2015-06-20 22:19:03]<Emerald_Rose> "Applejack was fairly concerned about getting a troop transport up first. Which would be better... the jeep or the truck?" She wipes her mane out of her face and smears her forehead with grease.
  27. [2015-06-20 22:19:05]* Golden_Brass muses on what sort of one-pony show would be best for her audience...

  30. [2015-06-20 22:20:45]<Emerald_Rose> "Applejack was fairly concerned about getting a troop transport up first. Which would be better... the van or the truck?" She wipes her mane out of her face and smears her forehead with grease.
  31. [2015-06-20 22:21:00]* Azshkazar has quit (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)
  32. [2015-06-20 22:21:21]<Emerald_Rose> (( *Totally not correcting for missing a van. ))
  33. [2015-06-20 22:21:26]* Marshal_Cookies Wingnut pipes up, "Well the Van holds more ponies but there is no good way to shoot from the back of it, unless we open it up like a can, the truck dosent take as many but its more open"
  34. [2015-06-20 22:21:52]* Hummel approaches the mayor per se, giving a nod as if overseeing and appreciative of the whole initiative. "Tilled, would you care for a chat for a moment or two? I'm sure you guys are sorta busy, but...I'd like to know a bit more about certain things."
  35. [2015-06-20 22:22:39]* Emerald_Rose nods. "The van will be easier to armor for getting troops to the compound. Let's do that first." She smiles. "Where shall we start?"
  36. [2015-06-20 22:23:26]* Nutmeg_Oil rubs his chin. "That sounds about right. Lets get it done." He cleans his goggles and puts them on.
  37. [2015-06-20 22:23:46]* Marshal_Cookies tilled pasture gives a few quick instructions to some of his ponies before nodding and nudging his head in the direction of his office, "Sure, want to step inside?"
  38. [2015-06-20 22:25:00]* Pony_70721 is now known as Azshkazar
  39. [2015-06-20 22:25:35]* Hummel shrugs, making his mane tussle. "Sounds fine, no need to be so formal, but..." The stallion closes his eyes and give a compenetrated nod, going along towards the stallion's office.

  41. [2015-06-20 22:27:08]* Marshal_Cookies Golden Brass observes the townies and reads them like the back of a dime store paperback, she KNOWS the ponies here will react best to one thing and one thing only.... a big musical number with backup dancers and live music! think wild west canteena show.
  42. [2015-06-20 22:27:25]* Marshal_Cookies she also knows there are some local musicians that play at the bar.
  43. [2015-06-20 22:28:07]* Observer is now known as Pony_68759
  44. [2015-06-20 22:28:14]* Marshal_Cookies Tilled Pasure leads the way to the office and takes a seat, pulling out a small bottle from whisky barrels bar and takes a swig before tucking it back away into his desk, "So, what did you need?"
  45. [2015-06-20 22:28:24]* Nutmeg_Oil takes his time to speak out loud what each tool and part is for as he works with the others on strengthening the structure and plating the vehicle.
  46. [2015-06-20 22:28:30]* Golden_Brass hrms, her mind immediately going to a big cabaret number involving her and Bellator...
  47. [2015-06-20 22:28:41]* Golden_Brass ... or maybe burlesque!
  48. [2015-06-20 22:29:01]* Azshkazar has quit (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)

  51. [2015-06-20 22:31:04]* Marshal_Cookies Wingnut mostly dictates where things go, slot a into slot b, but before long the mostly sparce and barren skeliton of the van is built back up into a almost completely operational vehical over the span of 4 hours, lots of hard work and sweat goes into it and as you break you know your only a hour or so away from having it finished up.
  52. [2015-06-20 22:31:13]* Observer is now known as Pony_81703
  53. [2015-06-20 22:31:20]* Hummel puts both his forehooves over the desk, gazing at the pony for some moment before opening his mouth. "Information would be nice...I've been talking to some of the townfolks and its no secret that you guys grow your shrooms underground...I'd thought I'd ask you a bit more about how exactly they are grown and what is used onto them...and I've heard that some of your farmers down there are
  54. [2015-06-20 22:31:21]* Hummel having trouble."
  55. [2015-06-20 22:31:32]* Golden_Brass goes to recruit and practice with the town's musicians!
  56. [2015-06-20 22:32:18]* Nutmeg_Oil helps explaining things to the foals as Wingnut takes lead of the work.
  57. [2015-06-20 22:33:25]* Marshal_Cookies Tilled Pasture nods, "No problems per say, just... jumpyness really, farmers spending to long in the caves seeing shadows. Nothing has actually happend, I just think its nerves, being under all the preasure to keep the town fed, you know. as for how they do it, we found the caves and the mushrooms here long before the town grew around it, down near the water"
  58. [2015-06-20 22:33:45]* Emerald_Rose really gets into the work, though her green coat and red mane and tail definitely become much more black and greasy as time goes on.
  59. [2015-06-20 22:33:49]* Marshal_Cookies the foals carry aroun what they are instructed to and pay as close attention as they can.

  63. [2015-06-20 22:34:48]* Marshal_Cookies Golden Brass can easily find the musicians, an eclectic bunch who play various instruments, including one who even plays a home made squeeze box acordian! they are of course willing to help but will need some assitance leraning the proper number for the show
  64. [2015-06-20 22:37:05]* Golden_Brass says she needs a little while to find-out if she'll be the only performer, but she gives them an overview of her vision for the show.
  65. [2015-06-20 22:38:38]* Marshal_Cookies the sun races across the sky as time advances, the sun is starting to set.
  66. [2015-06-20 22:38:50]* Pony_28021 has quit (Connection closed)
  67. [2015-06-20 22:38:54]* Hummel raises a hoof. "You just found and...went for it? I mean, shrooms are a good food source as any, but gobble them as you found those...You've sent some samples to the globe to get them tested back then? And about the farmers...have they been making inventory of their crops? The numbers match? from what I've heard, some food just poofs away." The stallion sighs a bit. "And what else about
  68. [2015-06-20 22:38:54]* Hummel the caves? Are they a part of a larger underground network or something? They have been mapped?"

  71. [2015-06-20 22:41:32]* Marshal_Cookies Tilled Pasture shrugs, "never had then tested official like, i was here back in those days, it was old Teddy who tried the first ones, whent on to be the first mayor even, passed on a few years back. But it was a diffrent time then, Bombs had dropped not but four years before and times were desperate, we were not the kind to question where a meal came from"
  72. [2015-06-20 22:42:13]* Marshal_Cookies Tilled continues, "We actually have a map of most of the caves, though there are some that brach off to areas we have no clue about, just never had the time to check it out, though we keep those pathways gated up down there"
  73. [2015-06-20 22:44:11]<Golden_Brass> "Bellator?" Brass asks as she looks at the upside-down batpony.
  74. [2015-06-20 22:45:15]* Bellator yawns, opening her eyes, "Oh, howdy Brass. Things workin' out 'round the town?"
  75. [2015-06-20 22:45:36]<Golden_Brass> "Uh, as far as I can tell, yeah," Brass says.
  76. [2015-06-20 22:45:41]* Pony_26933 is now known as Azshkazar
  77. [2015-06-20 22:46:06]<Golden_Brass> "Hey, listen. I've been thinking that it might be a good idea to do some performance art for the townies. I'm a... little worried," Brass says.
  78. [2015-06-20 22:46:30]<Golden_Brass> "All this impending violence doesn't sit well with me. Especially not so soon after... the, uh... dome."
  79. [2015-06-20 22:46:46]* Golden_Brass looks a little muted for once.
  80. [2015-06-20 22:46:49]* Marshal_Cookies while the rest of the ponies work on the engine Emerald rose bolts and welds scrap amor to the sides of the van before moving to help them.
  81. [2015-06-20 22:47:25]* Emerald_Rose whistles a merry little tune as she works.
  82. [2015-06-20 22:47:27]* Bellator tilts her head, spreading out her wings, "Yer plannin' what now? Ah mean Ah know the dome was a heck of a thing, but Ah ain't sure how a dance is supposed to help.
  83. [2015-06-20 22:47:28]<Bellator> "
  84. [2015-06-20 22:47:59]* Hummel nodded, he was sure they were desperate back then. "But still, I'm sorta surprised the dome hadn't taken an interest on sampling the shrooms...seeing that your entire town subsides on it with seemingly no problem..." Hummel comments, raising his eyebrows and considering what was told. "Maybe your farmers haven't been seeing shadows, it could be a liability...a nest of beasts or some wild
  85. [2015-06-20 22:48:00]* Hummel animal. If you leave that unchecked, sooner or later one of them will...wait...yes, that's it! It wasn't coincidence you found the shrooms laying around down there, they would occupy a niche onto an ecosystem, something else feeded onto them before you did, that could be it."

  87. [2015-06-20 22:49:28]* Marshal_Cookies Pasture tilts his head, "You dont think we would have noticed something before now? I mean, im not moster hunter, but that seems odd. I mean if you want to put there minds at ease and check it out your welcome to, I can share our maps if you like"
  88. [2015-06-20 22:50:02]* Observer is now known as Pony_72697
  89. [2015-06-20 22:50:09]<Golden_Brass> "These ponies are pretty scared, Bellator. I imagine they've never had to fight on this scale before," she says. "My... intuitions aside, I think they need to be cheered-up a bit.
  90. [2015-06-20 22:50:39]<Golden_Brass> "Have their spirits raised. Otherwise this attack might falter before it even gets off the ground."
  91. [2015-06-20 22:50:48]* Azshkazar has quit (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)
  92. [2015-06-20 22:51:04]* Marshal_Cookies the moon rises as the sun sets, "Street lights" turn on over the town from battery power as ponies start moving home, the night guard taking over there shift, meanwhile below Wingnut and the rest of the tired mechanics watch as the older pony turns the ingition, the armored van roaring to new life! the first vehical is done
  93. [2015-06-20 22:51:13]* Pony_72697 is now known as Azshkazar
  94. [2015-06-20 22:51:27]* Marshal_Cookies Copper cheers and the tired foals do as well, though obviously ready for bed, even if they wont admit it
  95. [2015-06-20 22:51:46]* Bellator looks out across the town, "Well, Ah'll take yer word on that. What 're ya plannin' to do?"
  96. [2015-06-20 22:51:55]<Azshkazar> After setting up the still Azshkazar will track down Golden Brass.
  97. [2015-06-20 22:52:24]<Golden_Brass> "How do you feel about a dance-number or two?" Brass asks her.
  98. [2015-06-20 22:52:40]* Golden_Brass smiles a bit.
  99. [2015-06-20 22:52:48]* Hummel nods to that. "Yeah, we could be up into something...after we deal with the most urgent problem we should definately look into that, Pasture. I don't like the looks of it, to be honest...and without the dome, if the town loses the crops, there's no leeway food source."
  100. [2015-06-20 22:52:58]* Marshal_Cookies Azshkazar and Whisky barrel, along with the help of the bomb making guard Grand Finale, finish the still near the bomb hut just as the street lights come on and the moon rises, Whisky heads home as Grand works into the night.
  101. [2015-06-20 22:53:22]<Azshkazar> "A dance number? What? I just got done setting up the stills, did you get the fertilizer?"
  102. [2015-06-20 22:53:35]* Golden_Brass looks over at Azshkazar.
  103. [2015-06-20 22:53:52]* Golden_Brass looks over her shoulder at Azshkazar's sudden appearance.*
  104. [2015-06-20 22:54:00]<Golden_Brass> "Huh? What?" Brass says.
  105. [2015-06-20 22:54:03]* Bellator blinks "Ya want me to... ya think thats a good idea? Ah don't think the ponies 'round here would like me much..." she says, her ears drooping... or are they rising?
  106. [2015-06-20 22:54:03]* Marshal_Cookies Tilled pasture nods, "Definately a concern, we also trade for outside food, but we rely heavily on our crops, if you think this is cause for real concern I can have someone show you around down there tommorow, there are plenty of farmers who know it liek the back of there hoof"
  107. [2015-06-20 22:54:06]* Emerald_Rose laughs, the only part of her that looks the same is the little bit of green from her coat around her eyes, and her silver eyes as the goggles rest on her head. "Um... if its not too much trouble, is there somewhere I could get clean? I'm rather... black."
  108. [2015-06-20 22:54:40]<Golden_Brass> "Er... I have a great idea for that," Brass says. "But, uh, one moment. Ash?"
  109. [2015-06-20 22:54:45]* Golden_Brass turns to face the unicorn.
  110. [2015-06-20 22:54:51]<Golden_Brass> "What's this about fertilizer?"
  111. [2015-06-20 22:55:29]* Hummel nods a few times more. "That would be appreciated. It could be nothing, but with these stakes at hoof,I'm sure we'd all feel better if we checked it."
  112. [2015-06-20 22:55:49]<Azshkazar> "Oh, sorry, thought that was directed at me. Fertilizer, we need some to make the bomb, do you think you could convince some farmers to part with it?"
  113. [2015-06-20 22:56:00]* Marshal_Cookies Wingnut nods, "Of course, its late though so the water will probably be cold, but there are baths over at Alibaster Pearl for ya, they also do laundry"
  114. [2015-06-20 22:56:25]* Nutmeg_Oil stretches and dries his forehead. "That's one. Lets put it to good use. Ah think we're done here young'uns. How'd ya like making a car?"
  115. [2015-06-20 22:56:56]* Marshal_Cookies Tilled Pasture nods, "Of course, and I would like to thank you, if I didnt before, for running on this errand for me yesterday.... who knows if we would have been anywhere near ready for this otherwise"
  116. [2015-06-20 22:57:21]* Marshal_Cookies the foals yawn, afferming that it was fun, and they like dthe bits where the tools made sparks.
  117. [2015-06-20 22:57:35]<Golden_Brass> "Do pigs roll in the mud?" Brass responds to Azshkazar.
  118. [2015-06-20 22:57:46]* Golden_Brass grins.
  119. [2015-06-20 22:58:08]<Golden_Brass> "What I mean to say is; probably. The situation is pretty dire," she says. "How much do we need?"
  120. [2015-06-20 22:58:47]<Nutmeg_Oil> "Now lets get y'all to your parents."
  121. [2015-06-20 22:59:17]* Emerald_Rose nods. "Thank you. I'll go get clean and get these clothes clean. Nutmeg, do you mind handling that?"
  122. [2015-06-20 22:59:44]<Nutmeg_Oil> "Sure." He thinks.
  123. [2015-06-20 23:00:04]<Hummel> "That was a team effort, I only did my part...and of course we were generously rewarded for the assisteance." He runs a hoof over the edge of his mane. "I won't trespass more on your time, Pasture. I'm sure you've got a busy schedule of further preparation." The earth pony gives a polite bow and excuses himself.
  124. [2015-06-20 23:00:20]* Marshal_Cookies the foals compain a bit, "but we arnt even *yawn* tired yet", as they are lead home.
  125. [2015-06-20 23:01:15]* Emerald_Rose smiles and heads for the bath house. Even cold water is better than no water for getting clean.
  126. [2015-06-20 23:02:06]<Azshkazar> "...hold that thought, I'll go ask Grand Finale. Sorry, I lost track of who was doing what when I got roped into setting up the still."
  127. [2015-06-20 23:02:37]<Nutmeg_Oil> "Oh, aren't ya? Good! There are some big ol' boxes we need carrying way up the town..." He subtly smirks
  128. [2015-06-20 23:03:02]* Azshkazar rushes back to the hut to find Grand Finale
  129. [2015-06-20 23:03:37]* Marshal_Cookies Emerald Rose finds the Alibaster Pearl, a fancy name for a place so desperately trying to live up to it. the owner is a very clean mare who invites Emerald rose in free of charge, apoligizing for the lack of cold water, but ofers a complimentary brick of home made soap.
  130. [2015-06-20 23:04:15]* Emerald_Rose nods to the mare. "Thank you. If there's something I can do to help you out, let me know... I don't want to take advantage of you."
  131. [2015-06-20 23:04:21]* Marshal_Cookies two large sized pools half a pony deep sit next to the building for Emerald rose to use.

  134. [2015-06-20 23:06:03]* Emerald_Rose just walks into the pool, still in her clothes. She comes out from under the water, and undoes the clothing in the water, setting it where it looks like dirty clothes would go. "Is there a fee for getting clothes cleaned?"

  142. [2015-06-20 23:07:40]* Emerald_Rose nods. "I'll deliver the scrap on pick up? Sound fair?" She does blush a bit about being called pretty.

  156. [2015-06-20 23:13:15]* Marshal_Cookies Grand nods, looking up from his charts, which contain quickly scribbled equations and such, "Yup, I figure I need about 15 pounds to make the nuber we need. Ill start making the alchahol we need tommrow, once we have that and the fertalizer I can really get going on this"

  165. [2015-06-20 23:16:56]* Nutmeg_Oil goes back to Shy to give her some dusting before looking for a shower. "A whole lot of work today, but maybe it'll do some good. This is a good town, you'd like the kids."
  166. [2015-06-20 23:17:21]* Golden_Brass claps Bellator on the back!

  172. [2015-06-20 23:19:45]* Bellator sighs, "Ah'll consider it. But if the disquise doesn't work, better to leave me out of it rather than draw anypony's ire."
  173. [2015-06-20 23:19:46]<Nutmeg_Oil> "Maybe we can get them families to go on a short sightseeing after this' all done." He smiles.

  186. [2015-06-20 23:34:41]* Marshal_Cookies The moon races across the sky and before to long the sun rises on a new day, full of potential. Applejack and Heartshoe work the troops early to get them in shape for the soon to come battle.

  194. [2015-06-20 23:40:22]* Nutmeg_Oil stretches and wakes up, doing a routine check-up on the ship. "Morning Shy. Long day ahead of me, but you can just rest for a while."
  195. [2015-06-20 23:40:50]* Marshal_Cookies a soft chimeing sound echoes in her hull
  196. [2015-06-20 23:41:53]* Nutmeg_Oil patpats the ship and sets off to the other vehicles.
  197. [2015-06-20 23:42:13]* Emerald_Rose is up early, and after a short bit of katas, she pays the scrap for clean overalls and goes back to work!
  198. [2015-06-20 23:42:27]* Hummel wakes up early and brightly so, having being militarily disciplined to be a morning pony...it took a while, but in the end, he managed. "Hello, you farmers...you don't come often to the surface, do you? You guys sleep down there?"
  199. [2015-06-20 23:43:22]* Golden_Brass also rises early. Bit of a necessity when you live on the road all on your own...
  200. [2015-06-20 23:44:25]<Golden_Brass> While she brushes her teeth, she mentally runs through scenarios of how to best persuade the farmers to part with their nitrates.
  201. [2015-06-20 23:45:10]* Marshal_Cookies The farmer offers a shrug, "Well we come up plenty I suppose, but a lot of us do live in the caves, some of them that is. But we are not like MOLE ponies are something"
  202. [2015-06-20 23:46:49]* Marshal_Cookies the armored van rests outside of the Pit, partially scrubed down of dust and rust by wingnut the night before, they are all eager to hear which one they should do next
  203. [2015-06-20 23:47:04]<Hummel> "Never said you were." He remarks. "So, we should go down there, take a gander, please lead the way. I'd like to see it with my own eyes."
  204. [2015-06-20 23:47:14]* Emerald_Rose looks to Nutmeg. "Nutmeg, what do you think?"
  205. [2015-06-20 23:48:26]* Golden_Brass is quite occupied -- mentally, at least -- as she picks-up some free breakfast.
  206. [2015-06-20 23:48:45]* Azshkazar will get up early, eat a can of the Globe Ponies food for breakfast, conspicuously drop the empty can over the side of the butte, and return to the bomb shak.
  207. [2015-06-20 23:48:50]* Marshal_Cookies the Farmer nods and then leads the way towards the utilties building, "Right this way, the main entrance to the farming caves is this way, dont think anyone is working this early so we have the run of the place". Upon ariving he provides a simple plastic helmet to Hummel with a light attached to it.
  208. [2015-06-20 23:49:17]<Nutmeg_Oil> He looks around at the parts. "The truck gonna be a tough one, but we gotta put up some cover if somepony is gonna be shootin' in the back."
  209. [2015-06-20 23:49:40]* Marshal_Cookies Grand Finale is passed out over his work desk, several lengths of pipe have been cut down to size and diffrent fittings have been laid out for later use, the guard pony snores loudly enough to be heard outside of his mysertious ever growing shack.
  210. [2015-06-20 23:50:10]* Hummel promptly puts it on. "We'll take a lift down there or stairs?"
  211. [2015-06-20 23:52:27]* Marshal_Cookies the Farmer dons his hat and leads the way down a cave, rough cut stares carved into it, "Its a fair trot down, mostly sloped passages, mind your step.... so where abouts are you wanting to go?"
  212. [2015-06-20 23:52:50]* Marshal_Cookies Copper speaks up, "So the truck then? we have it dug out, should we get to work?"
  213. [2015-06-20 23:53:24]* Azshkazar shakes her head and will attempt to straighten up any debris that looks like it's definitely not part of the bomb
  214. [2015-06-20 23:53:50]<Hummel> "Mostly an overview all around, and then wherever the map doesn't cover...we should be checking up for tracks or anything out of the place, forlorn..."
  215. [2015-06-20 23:54:37]* Marshal_Cookies Azshzar cleans up a few cans of food from the ship, a few tools he has purchased, and a empty bottle. Grand continues to sleep until waken up.
  216. [2015-06-20 23:54:42]<Emerald_Rose> "Maybe do a long range gun for the truck?"
  217. [2015-06-20 23:55:07]* Marshal_Cookies Wingnut asks, "Do we have one of those?"
  218. [2015-06-20 23:55:28]* Emerald_Rose smiles. "I know of a few... don't we have one or two in the hold?"
  219. [2015-06-20 23:57:08]* Azshkazar will go the place where Applejack is training the militia. Perhaps she will pick something up?
  220. [2015-06-20 23:58:35]* Golden_Brass starts casing the town for farmers after she finishes breakfast and washes-up, smelling like a rose and looking like she has hair of spun gold.
  221. [2015-06-20 23:59:32]* Marshal_Cookies Hummel is lead down into the depths of the caves, "Alright, we will have a look around then"
  222. [2015-06-20 23:59:53]* Nutmeg_Oil rubs his chin. "Maybe we better go for the jeep. It's tougher."
  223. [2015-06-21 00:00:25]<Hummel> "I'd also like to talk with the farmers who did said they saw something, if we stumble upon any...that'd be nice afterwards."
  224. [2015-06-21 00:00:41]* Emerald_Rose nods. "I'm not sure myself. Whatever you think is best."
  225. [2015-06-21 00:01:35]<Nutmeg_Oil> He nods "Jeep then. But getting a long range gun for the pick up might be a good idea later."
  226. [2015-06-21 00:03:12]<Emerald_Rose> "I can bring Applejack by. She might have an idea." The mare nods.
  227. [2015-06-21 00:03:55]* Marshal_Cookies Azshcazar and see where AJ and Heartshoes are busy talking about group tactics, and target practice.
  228. [2015-06-21 00:04:11]<Nutmeg_Oil> *retcon
  229. [2015-06-21 00:04:14]* Marshal_Cookies In the caves Hummel takes note of a few shallow drag marks near the unexplore caves
  230. [2015-06-21 00:05:01]* Hummel approaches the marks and uses his field experience in an attempt to identify them
  231. [2015-06-21 00:08:14]* Marshal_Cookies Hummel inspects it for a bit, much to the confusion of the farmer who didnt notice it, before long his suppisions turn to fact as he fines a loose scale... these marks are from a young Desert Gator, probaly has its nest not to far away and comes to the caves here to drink from the water. Its a mirical that nopony has been caught by it yet.
  232. [2015-06-21 00:10:34]* Marshal_Cookies Azshkazar is aproched by Heartshoes who asks if there is any way her magic could be effectivly used in the combat against the gang, or in the training of the guards
  233. [2015-06-21 00:11:04]* Marshal_Cookies Copper shine and wingnut start up the shop again as the truck is raised up and a motor slides into place, work resuming on the next vehical
  234. [2015-06-21 00:12:14]* Hummel takes the scale. "Looks like a gator to me, a sneaky one if I were any judge..." He says. "Not sure if a loner or just an omega eating his fill before returning to the others on his nest...thing is, it can be dangerous, very, very nasty set of teeth they got, and mad muscles to make them go snap..."
  235. [2015-06-21 00:12:52]* Marshal_Cookies After only four hours, half the time as last night, Wingnut is able to turn over the trucks engine, between it being in better shape than it looked and excellent work from Nutmeg the truck is finished in record time! ready for moddification or to be wheeled out if your done with it.
  236. [2015-06-21 00:13:43]* Marshal_Cookies Hummel knows that the desert gators, like this one, grow many times larger than there normal versions and are often well camoflaughed for the desert, they also have long whip like tongues that can be an issue at short range.
  237. [2015-06-21 00:14:09]* Marshal_Cookies the farmer looks startled, "Whoa, what? how can that be, we have seen something moving around down here but a gattor?"
  238. [2015-06-21 00:14:35]<Azshkazar> "Well, I can destroy things by shooting bolts of power, I can slow gangers down in a web of energy, and I can also create a wide variety of illusions. Maybe I could conjure up some moving targets?"
  239. [2015-06-21 00:15:25]* Marshal_Cookies Heartshoes nods, "Could you maybe make it look like our numbers are larger than they are? See if we can intimdate them a bit?"
  240. [2015-06-21 00:15:44]* Nutmeg_Oil wipes the sweat of his brow. "Now we got to put some more cover in it."
  241. [2015-06-21 00:16:49]* Golden_Brass asks around at the Coachman for where most of the farmers live.
  242. [2015-06-21 00:17:34]<Hummel> "Go figure...the cave probably opens up into some underground jungle or whatever, these tracks are fresh and there's a reptile on the loose. You should warn the others to be on the lookout for now...we're not sure if there's more of them where this came from." He takes a deep breath. "I should go tell this to Pastures, in any case."
  243. [2015-06-21 00:17:59]* Marshal_Cookies Whisky explains that originally the farmers, who founded the town, built homes in the upper caves, most of the farmers live there, the easiest way to reach them is through the Utilities building.
  244. [2015-06-21 00:18:36]* Marshal_Cookies the farmer looks scared, "I, but, if its dangerous how are we going to harvest our shrooms?"
  245. [2015-06-21 00:20:19]* Marshal_Cookies The young foals are in and out of the garage helping when they can, they explain they are also doing odd jobs around town to raise up the capital to purchase there own tools.
  246. [2015-06-21 00:20:57]<Hummel> "I'll discuss it with the mayor, we'll see some solution to it...just warn the other farmers...you told me there's none down here, right?"
  247. [2015-06-21 00:22:10]* Nutmeg_Oil smiles. "Ah like your energy."
  248. [2015-06-21 00:22:31]* Nutmeg_Oil prepares to put some armor on the truck
  249. [2015-06-21 00:22:46]* Marshal_Cookies The farmer nods and leads Hummel to the exit
  250. [2015-06-21 00:23:18]* Marshal_Cookies the shop warms up yet again to attach the armor
  251. [2015-06-21 00:24:21]* Hummel accompanies the farmer, parts his way and then seeks an audience with the mayor, in light of his new findings.
  252. [2015-06-21 00:25:22]* Golden_Brass passes Hummel on the way down.
  253. [2015-06-21 00:25:23]* Marshal_Cookies the Mayor is talking with Whisky Barrel and requesting to buy some of his Spook Juice from him for use by the town in its growing array of vehicles.
  254. [2015-06-21 00:26:07]* Marshal_Cookies Brass is warmed by the same farmer who lead Hummel down not to go in the mushroom caves, which are clearly marked, becouse of the Dangerous Gator down that way, he seems very troubled by the news himself.
  255. [2015-06-21 00:26:12]<Golden_Brass> "Oh hey, Hummel!" Brass says as sees him. "Say, would you describe your singing-voice as either 'full-bodied' or 'soulful'?"
  256. [2015-06-21 00:26:23]* Marshal_Cookies retcon last statment about farmer
  257. [2015-06-21 00:26:29]<Marshal_Cookies> :P
  258. [2015-06-21 00:26:35]<Golden_Brass> as 'full-bodied' or 'soulful'?"*
  259. [2015-06-21 00:26:36]<Marshal_Cookies> *if your going to talk to hummel that is
  260. [2015-06-21 00:27:35]<Hummel> "Er? I'm not sure, what's the difference?" He winds up asking. "And...why all the sudden interest on my voice?"
  261. [2015-06-21 00:29:47]<Azshkazar> "I'm afraid not."
  262. [2015-06-21 00:30:13]<Golden_Brass> "Well, the difference is vocal range and genre of prefer-- err... that's not really the important question, is it?" Brass stops herself before resuming. "There's going to be a performance at the bar later. I'm organizing, and I was thinking a male voice might contribute significantly to the harmony."
  263. [2015-06-21 00:30:23]<Golden_Brass> "You sing well?" she asks.
  264. [2015-06-21 00:31:30]* Hummel shrugs. "Never tried it outside the bathroom."
  265. [2015-06-21 00:31:58]* Marshal_Cookies Heartshoes nods, "Alright, worth a shot asking.... so you and all your friends going to be helping right? You seemed to work together well back at the dome"
  266. [2015-06-21 00:33:32]<Golden_Brass> "Well, if you're interested, show-up this evening. We'll be practicing with live accompaniment," Brass tells him. "Now, if you'll excuse me, I have some farmers to chat with."
  267. [2015-06-21 00:34:29]* Marshal_Cookies the famers are easily located, as is the mayor who is talking with whisky barrel as mentioned before
  268. [2015-06-21 00:34:34]<Azshkazar> "I believe so, yes."
  269. [2015-06-21 00:34:59]<Hummel> "Yep, go ahead." He gave a knowing nod and then came up to the mayor. "I trust the recent news have came to your ears..."
  270. [2015-06-21 00:35:31]<Marshal_Cookies> Two hours of hard work in the garage equals one armored truck, adding a second completed vehical to the collection.
  271. [2015-06-21 00:36:18]* Marshal_Cookies Heartshoes nods, "So... bit of a personal question on the side, there many ponies like you out there? Throwing magical blasts around and such?"
  272. [2015-06-21 00:38:40]* Golden_Brass walks around, introducing herself to the mushroom farmers and explaining the situation that requires some of their fertilizer.
  273. [2015-06-21 00:40:55]* Marshal_Cookies Azshkazar guesses that with how genious one must be to master this art... they must be extrodinarily rare
  274. [2015-06-21 00:41:03]* Marshal_Cookies really they are lucky she is here
  275. [2015-06-21 00:41:23]* Nutmeg_Oil smiles at a job well done and looks for the kids.
  276. [2015-06-21 00:41:48]* Marshal_Cookies the kids are around and easily found, a few are always about watching, foals just taking shifts watching the work
  277. [2015-06-21 00:41:54]* Marshal_Cookies one even takes notes
  278. [2015-06-21 00:42:43]<Azshkazar> "I couldn't say. I've only met a few others like myself in my travels, but this stuff is pretty complicated to learn, so I can't imagine there are many of us."
  279. [2015-06-21 00:43:52]* Golden_Brass has some communication issues with the farmers, but she knows how to use Pathos to get what she wants.
  280. [2015-06-21 00:44:53]* Marshal_Cookies between the news they wont be farming for at least a while and the understanding of how important it is Brass is able to talk them out of the needed Fertalizer
  281. [2015-06-21 00:46:07]* Marshal_Cookies Heartshoes nods, "I thought as much... never belived in witchcraft before all this, hard fact magical study and arcane theory is one thing, but some of the stuff I hear around town that is out there.... it pushes the bounds of what I can belive. Still, you do good work. Im gald your on our side"
  282. [2015-06-21 00:46:20]* Golden_Brass thanks them profusely before going to report her success to Azshkazar.
  283. [2015-06-21 00:46:33]* Marshal_Cookies Hummel can speak with the mayor when he likes
  284. [2015-06-21 00:47:01]* Hummel just did.
  285. [2015-06-21 00:47:48]<Nutmeg_Oil> "Ah think we can do something you'll like. Something that flies. We'll start small, but you can learn some important things." He says, smiling to the kids.
  286. [2015-06-21 00:48:19]<Marshal_Cookies> (Sorry hummel)
  287. [2015-06-21 00:48:20]* Emerald_Rose is half-buried in car workings as she helps out. Nimble mare.
  288. [2015-06-21 00:48:28]<Hummel> (np)
  289. [2015-06-21 00:49:15]* Marshal_Cookies Tilled Pasure is bagning his head on the bar, "Yes, it did, just before you. Gossip travels faster than a pullet here.... HOW in the hay did we miss that for this long? Thank Buck no pony has actually been suprised by that thing... are you sure about what you found?"
  290. [2015-06-21 00:49:53]* Hummel shows the scale. "I've found this, and the tracks match...so, yeah, pretty sure."
  291. [2015-06-21 00:50:37]* Marshal_Cookies Pasure rubs his tired eyes, "Well then the news just keeps getting more and more interesting dosent it?"
  292. [2015-06-21 00:50:56]* Marshal_Cookies "Teddy never had to deal with all this mess, lucky dead bastard"
  293. [2015-06-21 00:51:06]<Marshal_Cookies> *pasture
  294. [2015-06-21 00:52:29]* Marshal_Cookies The kids all assemble quickly and look SUPER eager
  295. [2015-06-21 00:52:52]* Hummel nodnods. "Sorry to put even more this on your plate, but yeah...and it might not be the only gator down there."
  296. [2015-06-21 00:52:57]* Emerald_Rose will eventually extricate herself from working on the vehicles to go get Applejack. She can try and push out more vehicles, but... well, she doesn't know what Applejack will want. She sighs. "Excuse me, I'm going to get Applejack's opinion on what she wants."
  297. [2015-06-21 00:53:53]* Marshal_Cookies Copper nods, Wingnut smiles, "Fine enough, I have a personal Project we will work on till then"
  298. [2015-06-21 00:54:15]* Marshal_Cookies AJ is up top finishing up a discussion on group tactics
  299. [2015-06-21 00:54:37]* Golden_Brass chats-up Azshkazar before going to get Bellator and work on the production!
  300. [2015-06-21 00:55:07]<Azshkazar> "You're glad I'm on your side. Huh. I actually tried working with road gangers before, thought I could end up making a fortune raiding Denmare with them. Only I survived. I suppose I'm glad I'm on your side too. Don't care to work with their type anymore."
  301. [2015-06-21 00:55:32]* Azshkazar commends Brass for her success
  302. [2015-06-21 00:55:35]* Emerald_Rose trots off to find the combat mare, and politely signals, greasy as Emerald is, for Applejack's attention. "Ma'am? If I can have a few minutes to discuss the vehicle situation?"
  303. [2015-06-21 00:56:44]* Bellator is once again hanging on the ship, taking a lovely daytime nap
  304. [2015-06-21 00:56:45]* Nutmeg_Oil gathers the parts from his own bag, setting them by the kids and showing them what they do. Little engines, parts for propellers, flaps and rudders. He sets the tools to them and guide them through carefully, letting them do most of the work by themselves.
  305. [2015-06-21 00:56:54]* Marshal_Cookies AJ untangles herself from the instruction before trotting over, "I reccon I can spare a moment, though its a bit hard pooring all this thory into there heads so quick, not but a few good soliders in the bunch. What did yall need to talk to me about now?"
  306. [2015-06-21 00:57:43]<Golden_Brass> "Ey! Bellator!" Brass calls up.
  307. [2015-06-21 00:58:08]* Marshal_Cookies It takes them longer than it would Nutmeg on his own, but the children are inraptured by the process, and a few hours later, a working toy blimp sales around Shitakee flats, foals chasing behind it, the rest pay there respects and heap on praise to nutmeg as the coolest skypony ever
  308. [2015-06-21 00:58:56]<Emerald_Rose> "Well, we have two armored vehicles for you. A truck and a van. But... well, I'm kind of stuck as to what else we could do to assist in the assault. This isn't my usual bailiwick."
  309. [2015-06-21 00:59:36]* Bellator groans and shakes her head, dropping down to the ships deck, "Ah'm up, Ah'm up..."
  310. [2015-06-21 01:00:07]* Marshal_Cookies tilled Pasture nods, "that is what I reckoned myself... but we are so busy with this, Ill just have to forbid ponies from going down that way till we wrap this up in a few days... unless you think you can handle it, or know a proper monster hunter?"
  311. [2015-06-21 01:00:29]* Hummel scratches his chin. "I just might..."
  312. [2015-06-21 01:01:19]* Marshal_Cookies AJ nods, "Well from what you mentioned that is about the best we can do with transport, maybe work on shock vehicals? something to ride out ahead or do quick atacks and the like? Also we have to start worrying about finding out who here are the best drivesr in the bunch, Driving in a active battle is a heck of a feat"
  313. [2015-06-21 01:02:26]<Golden_Brass> "Ready for practice? Gotta' get you introduced to the band!" Brass says.
  314. [2015-06-21 01:03:18]* Nutmeg_Oil smiles warmly, happy to help the future sky captains of this land. But there was more to do for the present. He returns to the vehicles, to help with what was left to do.
  315. [2015-06-21 01:03:34]* Bellator nods, putting her 'disguise' back on, "Ah'm comin', hold yer horses." she calls down, disembarking off the ship
  316. [2015-06-21 01:04:00]<Golden_Brass> "Oh, wait~ I should get something," Brass says, trotting into the ship and coming back out with her saddlebags.
  317. [2015-06-21 01:04:09]<Golden_Brass> "Alright. Let's go."
  318. [2015-06-21 01:04:44]* Bellator nods and follows, raises an eyebrow at Golden_Brass's saddlebags - not that you can tell
  319. [2015-06-21 01:05:08]* Hummel trots off to the ship, stumbling into the gals. "Yo, Bellator!" The stallion calls out. "You up for something more interesting, like going hoof to hoof with a gator?"
  320. [2015-06-21 01:05:20]* Nutmeg_Oil trots to Wingnut and Copper. "So, how's it goin'?"
  321. [2015-06-21 01:05:35]* Golden_Brass might just be able to! She reads body-language very well.
  322. [2015-06-21 01:05:55]<Golden_Brass> Helps to gauge the violence-level of masked marauders.
  323. [2015-06-21 01:06:12]* Bellator pushes her hat up, "Gators? What did ya get into?"
  324. [2015-06-21 01:06:54]* Hummel shrugs. "We found one...or more...into the caves, nipping into the shrooms and such."
  325. [2015-06-21 01:06:58]* Marshal_Cookies Nutmeg finds that Wingnut has clamed one of the bikes and has started working on the frame of what looks to eventually become.... something? there are three wheels stacked nearby and a lot of body material
  326. [2015-06-21 01:06:59]<Golden_Brass> "Woah, woah, what? Gators?"
  327. [2015-06-21 01:07:02]<Hummel> "You game?"
  328. [2015-06-21 01:07:17]* Emerald_Rose nods to AJ. "There are some motorcycles. I'll get working on that."
  329. [2015-06-21 01:07:19]* Marshal_Cookies wingnut nods, "Just working on something ells while you were gone, want to get abck to it?"
  330. [2015-06-21 01:07:46]* Marshal_Cookies AJ nods, "Sounds about right, good luck with that, what your doing is a huge heeping help alright!"
  331. [2015-06-21 01:08:26]* Bellator bites her lip, "Ah did promise to help Brass here but..." she says, turning to Golden_Brass, "Ya don't mind do ya? Ah'm sure with Hummel helpin' we can take care of 'em right quick."
  332. [2015-06-21 01:08:47]* Golden_Brass hrms.
  333. [2015-06-21 01:09:23]<Golden_Brass> "Depending on how long that takes, it could really hurt our timetable," Brass says. "But I'm not about to stand in the way of you two being safe..."
  334. [2015-06-21 01:09:26]* Golden_Brass hrms.
  335. [2015-06-21 01:09:29]<Nutmeg_Oil> He looks at the cars. "We gotta get some guns on. We just need to figure out what's gonna be. Anypony gone after guns yet?"
  336. [2015-06-21 01:09:42]<Golden_Brass> "Might not be able to put the show on tonight, like I planned," she remarks.
  337. [2015-06-21 01:10:02]* Marshal_Cookies Copper answers, "no we got plenty to rig them up here but no actual guns yet"
  338. [2015-06-21 01:10:29]<Golden_Brass> "Yeah. It's fine. Just don't get... chewed-up, alright?" Brass tells Bellator. "And that goes for you too, Hummel."
  339. [2015-06-21 01:11:26]<Hummel> "Sure, sure...we'll make sure to do something pretty with the gator skin afterwards, maybe some footwear, since its waterproof."
  340. [2015-06-21 01:11:42]* Bellator nods, "Ah won't, don't ya worry." she turns to Hummel, "Lets show them gators whos boss." she says, rearing up
  341. [2015-06-21 01:12:49]* Hummel nods eagerly. "Its up at the utilities buidling, some ways down into the cave...c'mon, I'll show you." He trots ahead, raising the hoof to turn on the light on the helmet.
  342. [2015-06-21 01:12:52]* Marshal_Cookies Hummel and Bellator have the maps of the caves and of course Hummel knows where he saw those tracks before, a good place to start
  343. [2015-06-21 01:14:10]* Golden_Brass trots off to the bar, intent on practicing herself and getting some costume ready for Bellator.
  344. [2015-06-21 01:14:27]* Hummel finds the tracks and then starts to move on the opposite way of the crops...he'd wind up bumping into more tracks or the beast itself.
  345. [2015-06-21 01:14:35]* Marshal_Cookies HeartShoes whistles, "Sounds gruesome, I... saddly know what its like now to be among a few survivors"
  346. [2015-06-21 01:14:39]* Bellator takes off her jacket once inside the cave, letting her wings flap freely
  347. [2015-06-21 01:17:43]* Bellator follows behind Hummel, trying to keep an eye on the tracks as well
  348. [2015-06-21 01:17:51]<Azshkazar> After listening to the guard ponies talk, Azshkazar will wander off to look for ingredients
  349. [2015-06-21 01:18:25]* Marshal_Cookies Bellator leads the way following less than obvious tracks through mostly uncharted caves, they are not overly hard to follow... but she dosent realize till to late that her trail following has lead them to a dead end... then the Snapping and growling starts
  350. [2015-06-21 01:20:42]* Marshal_Cookies work resumes in the garage and by the afternoon they almost have one bike together, it should not have taken this long, but they had nearly completed it before realizing they had mounted one of the early parts backwards, after a round of cursing you are back on track but behind schedule
  351. [2015-06-21 01:23:08]* Marshal_Cookies After three horus of whatever Azshkazar is doing Grand Finale comes looking for her
  352. [2015-06-21 01:23:45]<Azshkazar> "Grand Finale? Can I help you?"
  353. [2015-06-21 01:24:14]* Bellator turns to the source of the growling, baring her teeth and hissing in return
  354. [2015-06-21 01:25:06]* Hummel hastly picks his weapon in mouth and bust a cap at the overgrown lizard, pew pew!
  355. [2015-06-21 01:28:54]* Marshal_Cookies Wingnut takes a break for a bit before asking Rose and Nutmeg if they are ready to continue on the bikes again?
  356. [2015-06-21 01:29:31]* Marshal_Cookies Grand nods, "yup, wanted to thank you for work you did with the still and such, its running right now, had some time to myself so I thought i would see what you were up to"
  357. [2015-06-21 01:29:45]* Emerald_Rose smiles and nods. "Its the bikes. Shock vehicles is what we want."
  358. [2015-06-21 01:30:28]* Marshal_Cookies Hummel turns in time to see an adolessent desert gator apear out of the darkness, it pivits and swings its tail, connecting with Hummel but thankfully his new armor obsorbs most of the blow!
  359. [2015-06-21 01:31:12]* Nutmeg_Oil nods. "Back in old Equestria deadlines weren't so.... deadly."
  360. [2015-06-21 01:31:38]* Hummel shoots at the damn thing, enough with dem gators!
  361. [2015-06-21 01:32:08]* Marshal_Cookies Copper nods as he works, agreeing with Nutmeg, "No kidding, less life and death"
  362. [2015-06-21 01:32:27]* Marshal_Cookies after another four hours in the shop one bike is back in running order, and a second is mostly done.
  363. [2015-06-21 01:33:38]* Marshal_Cookies shot from Hummels 45 dose little but annoy hte large reptile!
  364. [2015-06-21 01:36:06]* Marshal_Cookies most of the day is done for the Mechanics, witha bit more work they will have the last bike ready, of course they could split up focus to do more if they chose
  365. [2015-06-21 01:36:59]* Bellator flaps forward with her wings, kicking the gator with a powerful STOMP of her forelegs on the gator swinging its tail at Hummel
  366. [2015-06-21 01:37:32]* Marshal_Cookies its a square hit but its hide is tough as a mother bucker!
  367. [2015-06-21 01:40:39]<Azshkazar> "I'm just gathering ingredients for my spells now. Why, am I needed elsewhere?"
  368. [2015-06-21 01:41:13]* Marshal_Cookies The gator snaps its jaw at Hummel
  369. [2015-06-21 01:41:36]* Marshal_Cookies the slam shut but nowhere near where the pony was
  370. [2015-06-21 01:42:25]* Marshal_Cookies Grand smiles, "Maybe not needed, but... actuallI could use some help if you could spare a moment? I have beenw working on a dropper for the bombs, maybe you could help me test it? just droping empty tubes right now of course"
  371. [2015-06-21 01:44:12]* Bellator spins around and tries to buck the gator, but fails to connect
  372. [2015-06-21 01:45:17]<Azshkazar> "Well... If they're not armed, I guess that would be okay."
  373. [2015-06-21 01:45:53]* Golden_Brass explains her vision for the production to the musicians: First, she's got a song in mind, then, a dance from her, then a dance number from a friend of hers, then a monologue from Brass' selection! (After a costume change, perhaps.)
  374. [2015-06-21 01:49:57]* Marshal_Cookies Rose and Wingnut finish the last bike, meanwhile Copper and Nutmeg finish up the compact car in no time at all! It is in fact more impressive than they thought, the find its engine was already suped up with a Supercharger!
  375. [2015-06-21 01:50:25]* Marshal_Cookies the musicians are right along with it, and whant to know whey the perfomrance will happen
  376. [2015-06-21 01:50:55]* Marshal_Cookies Grand nods, "Of course not, do I look crazy?", he heads in the direction of his shack
  377. [2015-06-21 01:51:29]* Azshkazar follows the obviously mad bomber to his shak
  378. [2015-06-21 01:52:07]* Golden_Brass tells them she wants it to happen this evening, if everything goes according to plan! Can they do that?
  379. [2015-06-21 01:52:38]* Marshal_Cookies Azshkazars theories prove correct as she sees he has constructed a rikity platform off the side of Shitakee flats where he has fitted his bomb dropper for testing, "Right this way!"
  380. [2015-06-21 01:52:47]* Golden_Brass says she's thinking this is going to be improv'd, by and large.
  381. [2015-06-21 01:53:35]<Azshkazar> "Riiiight, so what do you need me to do?"
  382. [2015-06-21 01:56:17]* Marshal_Cookies analizing the gator Hummel sees there is an old injury on its side, a lasting wound from a past battle that may prove to be a chink in its armor
  383. [2015-06-21 01:57:27]* Marshal_Cookies Grand loads empty tubes into the dropper, "Well you have magic right? I was hoping you could maybe... get down there and back fast? like flaot of teleport or something? I need to know how on mark it is and also it will speed things up if I can get the tubes back quick for recalibration"
  384. [2015-06-21 01:58:14]* Marshal_Cookies to recap for the mechancis, rose and Nutmeg. you have now built all the vehicals you can, it is also the end of the second day, only one more day of prep is left. you have modded the van and Truck with armor, the compact aparently came with a supercharger already, you have 1,900 scrap left to mod with.
  385. [2015-06-21 01:59:50]* Marshal_Cookies the musicians seem eager to get this, there largest and most grand performance, underway
  386. [2015-06-21 01:59:59]<Hummel> "On its side, Bella, knock it on its wound there!" He ushers to the batpony before attacking it himself on that spot
  387. [2015-06-21 02:04:08]* Marshal_Cookies the deamon gator roars with agony and pain as a bullet peices its old battle scar
  388. [2015-06-21 02:04:36]<Azshkazar> "Hmm, well I can telport about six feet, and I can levitate things that are about a foot away so... I know." Azshkazar takes off her hat and pulls a spool of heavy duty fishing line out of it. "Here you go."
  389. [2015-06-21 02:05:43]* Bellator stomps, "On it!" she shouts, rearing up and stomping her forehooves down on its scar
  390. [2015-06-21 02:05:47]* Marshal_Cookies Grand caps his hooves, "Cool! Dont supose you can do that for a inverted double pinned time release trigger could you?"
  391. [2015-06-21 02:06:17]* Marshal_Cookies the Gator squirms as its ribs crack and blood rushes from it, dieing soon of internal bleeding
  392. [2015-06-21 02:07:17]* Bellator wipes her brow, "Damn tenacious little critter. Was it just the one they had down here?"
  393. [2015-06-21 02:08:13]<Azshkazar> "I doubt it. Objects I create that way usually only last about an hour, and I can't create anything with complex moving parts."
  394. [2015-06-21 02:08:35]<Hummel> "I've...no idea." The stallion wipes a sweat from his forehead. "For a moment there, I thought we were royally screwed...good thing you piledrived this thing."
  395. [2015-06-21 02:09:13]* Marshal_Cookies Grand shakes his head, "Shame, till this is awesome, thanks, want to pull the lever for the first try?" he asks while tieing line to a series of tubes
  396. [2015-06-21 02:10:25]* Bellator nods, nudging it over with her nose, "Hmmm, looks male. Wasn't guarding a nest... and if there was a nest we would've seen more defense... If the villagers haven't seen more, its probably just the one." she says, reaching down and picking it up in her teeth, "Lephh goh."
  397. [2015-06-21 02:10:48]<Azshkazar> "Yes... I think I do."
  398. [2015-06-21 02:12:12]* Marshal_Cookies Grand grins and passes over a small levered pannel hes has been working on, wires running to the large box shape with tubes, "be my guest"
  399. [2015-06-21 02:13:42]* Azshkazar looks at the pannel, looks at the box, looks back at the panel, and pulls the lever
  400. [2015-06-21 02:14:29]<Hummel> "Yeah, we'd better scram..." He looks around for a bit and then trotting off to the exit.
  401. [2015-06-21 02:14:50]* Bellator follows Hummel, dragging the beast with her and having a little drink at the same time
  402. [2015-06-21 02:15:20]* Marshal_Cookies there are three metalic clicks as small springs are unlocked, this is followed by three mitalic wooshes as the tubes drop from the first slavo, each in nice neat order.
  403. [2015-06-21 02:16:29]* Marshal_Cookies the Gator is a bit hard to get up but if your determined and have some help you can, once close enough to the top the farmers who are watching the entranceway to the caves cheer as the news travels about the beasts demise
  404. [2015-06-21 02:17:30]<Hummel> "The mayor already knows at this point, but why not throw this at his desk and let him have a scare?"
  405. [2015-06-21 02:17:33]* Azshkazar looks over the edge

  407. [2015-06-21 02:18:31]* Marshal_Cookies Azshkazar seese three puffs of sand and dirt as the tubes land together and on target
  408. [2015-06-21 02:19:22]* Marshal_Cookies Mayor Tilled Pasture will actually hasten towards them himself, chearing along with a small crowd that has gathered, including some of there friends, Heartshoes, Risky, and even Gaia
  409. [2015-06-21 02:19:37]* Marshal_Cookies all are very impressed and excited the threat below is handeled so quickly!
  410. [2015-06-21 02:20:44]<Azshkazar> "Hmm, impressive. Well, I should return to my hunt for ingredients. If the line disappears before you're finished testing, well I suppose you could have someone stand away from the target and throw them a rope?
  411. [2015-06-21 02:22:04]* Bellator tips her hat down, nudging Hummel towards Tilled Pasture
  412. [2015-06-21 02:22:13]* Marshal_Cookies Grand thanks her for her time
  413. [2015-06-21 02:22:31]* Golden_Brass went and got some of the kids to spread the word about the show while the others were doing exciting stuff.
  414. [2015-06-21 02:23:32]* Hummel does go towards Pasture himself, a bit embarassed. "We...uh, took care of it. Bella did the heavy lifting, I only did ID the croc before, you know..." The stallion says, his forehoof drawing a bit on the dirt.
  415. [2015-06-21 02:24:11]* Golden_Brass has also decided to replace the monologue with some stand-up comedy!
  416. [2015-06-21 02:25:23]* Marshal_Cookies the foals egerly spread the word of the show, when should they tell ponies its happening?
  417. [2015-06-21 02:26:02]* Emerald_Rose will, after her work, go and get clean. She'll be more than happy to pay for a nice, hot bath.
  418. [2015-06-21 02:26:24]* Marshal_Cookies Tilled pasture eyes his peice, "Wow, and you actually managed to get a shot through it with... that peice? Humm... follow me real quick"
  419. [2015-06-21 02:27:07]* Marshal_Cookies Emerald Rose finds that Pearl has this time prepared a warm bath in anticipation, she also finds that pearl is also seated in the pool and will join her so she has company, the better to scrub each others backs.
  420. [2015-06-21 02:27:27]* Bellator follows, dragging the drained gator with her
  421. [2015-06-21 02:27:52]* Hummel tussles his mane. "Yeah, I know...I left in such a hurry I couldn't get a better sidearm..." He trots behind the mayor, eyeing eagerly.
  422. [2015-06-21 02:29:00]* Emerald_Rose will gladly take the back scrubbing. Its very nice after all the work that's being done.
  423. [2015-06-21 02:30:14]* Marshal_Cookies leading Hummel and Bellator to the stores for trade goods the mayor digs around for a bit before pulling out a stained wood container, opening it he reveals a plush red inside where sits... a Desert Phenix .50 caliber Pistol, along with a fully loaded magazine for it, five shots.
  424. [2015-06-21 02:30:30]* Marshal_Cookies Tilled Pasture nods, "Think this one will serve you a bit better?"
  425. [2015-06-21 02:32:25]* Nutmeg_Oil returns to the ship for a short while, too tired to go and wash the grease away. A few minutes of eye shutting should help.
  426. [2015-06-21 02:32:26]* Hummel open his eyes goddamn wide, for once losing his patented composture. "Just pinch my bottom and hold my hopscotch, if ain't that a Desert Phenix...ohmygosh, ohmygosh..." He glances at Tilled Pasture. "Are you sure you want to part with it? I mean...that's some hand cannon you got there, they don't make these anymore."
  427. [2015-06-21 02:32:27]* Azshkazar gathers more ingredients outside the town
  428. [2015-06-21 02:33:27]* Bellator chuckles behind the gator's tail at Hummel's mini freak out
  429. [2015-06-21 02:33:44]* Marshal_Cookies tilled Pasture nods, "No kidding, and try and find cheep amo for it! It would be a drain on our economy to actually use the thing, I was saving it to trade with but since you probably just saved the lives of our farmers, sure, its yours"
  430. [2015-06-21 02:34:56]* Hummel mumbles something. "I, I... I'm grateful, I'm very grateful..." He nabs the gun, pressing it against his chest affectionally, nuzzling over the beautiful, state-of-art gun.
  431. [2015-06-21 02:35:25]* Marshal_Cookies Hummel is now the proud owner of a very nice bit of steel! he even has some ammo for it
  432. [2015-06-21 02:36:04]* Marshal_Cookies Pearl and Rose bath together, her pet bot skitters around the side of the tub and ocassionaly jabs a metal tallon into the water to test it before retreating
  433. [2015-06-21 02:38:12]* Marshal_Cookies time advances...
  434. [2015-06-21 02:38:21]* Golden_Brass waits for Bellator to return from her monster-slaying so she can get her all fired-up for the production!
  435. [2015-06-21 02:38:25]* Marshal_Cookies Sundown arrives, as lights turn on in town, a crowd cathers around the bar
  436. [2015-06-21 02:38:41]* Marshal_Cookies foals outside calling out and pulling ponies inside
  437. [2015-06-21 02:39:40]* Nutmeg_Oil joins the group, still marked by the long day of work, but satisfied.
  438. [2015-06-21 02:40:30]* Azshkazar joins the others in the audience
  439. [2015-06-21 02:41:52]* Emerald_Rose settles into the crowd, staying near a wall. She looks very much a wallflower.
  440. [2015-06-21 02:41:53]* Golden_Brass has dressed Bellator in the full-body wrappings the party saw Brass wearing when they first met her! Except strategically positioned to show a little skin around Bellator's legs while carefully hiding her barrel and face.
  441. [2015-06-21 02:42:57]* Bellator figets slightly, "Ah look ridiculous."
  442. [2015-06-21 02:43:16]* Marshal_Cookies Roses bot keeps her company!
  443. [2015-06-21 02:43:25]<Golden_Brass> "Shush~ You look fine! And quite mysterious, if I do say so myself~" Brass chuckles.
  444. [2015-06-21 02:44:52]* Golden_Brass decided -- after much deliberation -- to cut the performance down to singing and dancing. She opens it with a song, Bellator dances, they dance together a little, Bellator exits stage right left as quickly or sloooooowly as she pleases, and then Brass closes it with another song.
  445. [2015-06-21 02:46:48]* Bellator blushes slightly and says nothing
  446. [2015-06-21 02:47:33]* Golden_Brass does a few last-minute vocal and physical warm-ups backstage. To keep the nervousness down.
  447. [2015-06-21 02:50:00]* Marshal_Cookies The crowd chats to each other happily, spirits are high from the days events and news of a monster being delt with by a mighting solidre, one who will be fighting along with the militia in the coming battle along sidet teh brave tmeplar and the rest of the visitors.
  448. [2015-06-21 02:50:10]* Marshal_Cookies Whisky sells his products at a discount and all are merry
  449. [2015-06-21 02:51:28]<Golden_Brass> "Break a leg," Brass whispers to Bellator as she heads out onstage.
  450. [2015-06-21 02:52:07]* Bellator nickers, fidgeting with the dress some more
  451. [2015-06-21 02:52:40]<Golden_Brass> She's gone and groomed herself carefully, brushing her mane and coat until they're lustrous. She smiles a medium-strength dazzling Brass-smile as she faces the audience, giving a little wave with a forehoof.
  452. [2015-06-21 02:52:57]* Observer (bobobo878@Pony-kvf.6hm.108.206.IP) has joined

  456. [2015-06-21 02:54:50]* Golden_Brass thanks the audience for showing-up and does some pre-show commentary, softening them up with some banter and 4th-wall-fluid commentary.
  457. [2015-06-21 02:56:06]<Golden_Brass> She hints at what's to come -- the "mystery mare" from a far off land, specifically -- and says she hopes they'll enjoy the show before taking her place at the edge of the curtain.
  458. [2015-06-21 02:56:22]* Azshkazar has quit (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)
  459. [2015-06-21 02:56:51]<Golden_Brass> The house-lights dim, turning the well-lit stage into the center of attention.
  460. [2015-06-21 02:57:02]* Pony_45580 has quit (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)
  461. [2015-06-21 02:58:23]* Golden_Brass starts to sing! Specifically, she starts to hum a melody! A slightly complex one, in fact. It twists and turns as Brass closes her eyes, making sure she hits the right sequence that cues the curtains and Bellator's appearance...
  462. [2015-06-21 02:59:09]* Hummel has quit (Quit: )
  463. [2015-06-21 03:04:18]* Bellator gulps, gracefully stepping onto the stage and dancing in tune to Golden_Brass's singing. She spins on a forehoof, cartwheels, taps on her tippy hooves; moving as smooth as she was countering a fighter's advances.
  464. [2015-06-21 03:05:00]* Marshal_Cookies there are some whistles from the crowd of approval
  465. [2015-06-21 03:05:13]* Golden_Brass opens her eyes to watch Bellator move, then -- once she's sure she's got the beat down -- adds percussion with her hooves upon the stage, accompanying the dancing batpony as best she's able.
  466. [2015-06-21 03:07:33]* Emerald_Rose smiles and enjoys the show, blushing slightly.
  467. [2015-06-21 03:10:09]* Nutmeg_Oil watches the show and drinks, enjoying the night.
  468. [2015-06-21 03:10:23]* Marshal_Cookies there are a few more blushing faces in the crowd thatcan be seen
  469. [2015-06-21 03:10:25]* Observer2 watches the show, slightly jealous of the admiration
  470. [2015-06-21 03:10:37]* Observer2 is now known as Azshkazar
  471. [2015-06-21 03:11:07]* Golden_Brass smiles as she stomps and sings along for Bellator, cuing in the musicians as the disguised batpony's dance grows more complex and impressive.
  472. [2015-06-21 03:15:30]* Marshal_Cookies the musicians join in and raise the tempo and the crowd is now really hooked
  473. [2015-06-21 03:16:20]* Bellator balances herself on one hoof as the music peaks, hopping back onto all fours and piroutetting around, swaying her tail and matching the musicians increased tempo
  474. [2015-06-21 03:19:29]* Golden_Brass fades her voice out as she moves in to join Bellator in her dervish, matching step and doing her best to work together with her.
  475. [2015-06-21 03:22:08]<Golden_Brass> Brass isn't a perfect match for Bellator, but her missteps she embellishes as counterpoints to the veiled batpony's whirls and displays of dexterity.
  476. [2015-06-21 03:22:30]* Marshal_Cookies the crowd cheers and applauds when apropriate
  477. [2015-06-21 03:23:07]* Marshal_Cookies stage lights, motly retrofitted lighting and hooves warming eve lights, follow and blink creating a colorful display
  478. [2015-06-21 03:28:16]* Bellator maintains a pace gentle enough for Golden_Brass to follow, slowly drifting off to the side of the stage until completely exited
  479. [2015-06-21 03:28:50]* Emerald_Rose will actually take a look around for Pearl while the show is going on.
  480. [2015-06-21 03:28:52]* Marshal_Cookies she gets a standing applause from teh crowd
  481. [2015-06-21 03:29:19]* Golden_Brass uses her acting skill to convey a feeling of loss as Bellator leaves the stage, drifting to the opposite end of the curtain from where she started.
  482. [2015-06-21 03:29:36]<Golden_Brass> fluttering to the opposite*
  483. [2015-06-21 03:29:38]* Marshal_Cookies Pearl is near the back, she is a lilly white mare with plae blue mane that is so well tended to it must dominate most of her free time to maintian in such an envirioment as shitakee flats.
  484. [2015-06-21 03:30:20]* Golden_Brass gradually picks-up the tempo, though, as she sings an ending to the performance, determined not to end on a (permanently) sad note.
  485. [2015-06-21 03:30:49]* Emerald_Rose will end up slowly making her way toward Pearl, careful to make it look like she's just drifting.
  486. [2015-06-21 03:33:11]* Marshal_Cookies Pearl is easily aproched as she is watching the show
  487. [2015-06-21 03:33:21]* Marshal_Cookies ponies cheer and whistel as the act ends
  488. [2015-06-21 03:33:33]* Golden_Brass -- after raising the tempo and turning a somber note to a joyful one -- signals an end to the performance by making a loud stomp and striking a pose!~
  489. [2015-06-21 03:33:59]* Marshal_Cookies everypony stands, not a seat is left empty
  490. [2015-06-21 03:34:31]* Golden_Brass signals for the curtain to open and calls everyone involved in the performance on stage for a bow or three~
  491. [2015-06-21 03:34:46]<Marshal_Cookies> between this, the overwelming positivity of how the bottle will be swung in there favor, the menction of possibly new food from the scientist in town, and the monster slaying... its almost a phisical weight is lifted from teh sholders of the ponies here and indeed the town itself
  492. [2015-06-21 03:34:51]* Emerald_Rose will sidle up beside Pearl and give a faint smile. "Um... if you wouldn't mind... um, I'd l..." And she trails off, blushing brightly.
  493. [2015-06-21 03:35:17]* Azshkazar applauds the performers
  494. [2015-06-21 03:35:44]* Marshal_Cookies Pearl watches Rose stumble a bit with her words as she smiles evenly, a hoof under the table pushes out a chair across from her without a word as she evites the templar to sit down with her eyes.
  495. [2015-06-21 03:36:22]* Bellator trots out on stage, bowing politely
  496. [2015-06-21 03:36:56]* Emerald_Rose takes a seat. "Um, I'd like to, um... stay. For... the night?" Very brightly blushing Emerald_Rose. She can barely be heard, her voice a whisper.
  497. [2015-06-21 03:37:10]* Marshal_Cookies the musicians also take the stage to have there bows, still playing as they do so and taking the time to solo as they are highlighted
  498. [2015-06-21 03:37:21]* Golden_Brass bows as well, smiling not only to the crowd but also to Bellator and the musicians~
  499. [2015-06-21 03:38:37]* Golden_Brass tries hard not to tear-up...
  500. [2015-06-21 03:39:44]* Bellator nods to Golden_Brass, trotting off stage once their bows were complete and the curtain fell
  501. [2015-06-21 03:40:03]* Marshal_Cookies Pearl leans in and whispers something to in a low sultery voice that is easily masked to those around them by the crowds cheers, following her words she nods her head towards the door, "I have more than enough room at my pace~"
  502. [2015-06-21 03:40:14]<Marshal_Cookies> *place
  503. [2015-06-21 03:40:52]* Golden_Brass slips backstage after as well, wiping a tear from her eye.
  504. [2015-06-21 03:41:05]* Emerald_Rose squeaks.
  505. [2015-06-21 03:41:20]<Emerald_Rose> But she nods. "Um... when?"
  506. [2015-06-21 03:41:58]* Marshal_Cookies Pearl giggles before standing and leading the way, a sway in her steps, leaving the invitation to follow implied as she struts slowly towards the door, swaying her hips.
  507. [2015-06-21 03:42:13]<Golden_Brass> "Good job out there, Bellator! You really stole the show!" Brass lauds her.
  508. [2015-06-21 03:42:39]* Emerald_Rose will glance one way, then the other way, and then sneak out behind Pearl.
  509. [2015-06-21 03:43:04]* Bellator blushes slightly, shaking off the veil, "Thank ya... Ah didn't think they would..." she says, smiling an overly toothy grin
  510. [2015-06-21 03:43:34]* Golden_Brass claps~
  511. [2015-06-21 03:44:17]<Golden_Brass> "I wouldn't be surprised if a few gentlestallions came calling, eh?~" Brass teases with a smirk.
  512. [2015-06-21 03:45:42]* Bellator shifts her eyes, "Well... they wouldn't get too far 'fore findin' a reason to leave... speaking of, can ya help me get these off? Ah know ya like 'em an' all, but mah wings just hate bein' all cramped up like this."
  513. [2015-06-21 03:46:49]<Golden_Brass> "Yeah. Sorry. Costumes are less for function, more for looks...
  514. [2015-06-21 03:46:56]* Golden_Brass frowns, sad she misread the situation.
  515. [2015-06-21 03:47:05]<Golden_Brass> ... and helps Bellator get out of her wrappings.
  516. [2015-06-21 03:48:14]<Golden_Brass> "Well, you never know," Brass smiles. "I've been all over, and you can find kind hearts in the most unexpected of places."
  517. [2015-06-21 03:48:37]<Golden_Brass> "So--" Brass taps Bellator's chin. "Chin-up. You did good today."
  518. [2015-06-21 03:49:05]<Golden_Brass> "Not well. Good~" Brass says, smirking at her own grammar-joke.
  519. [2015-06-21 03:49:33]* Bellator rolls her eyes and smiles, "Yeah yeah."
  520. [2015-06-21 03:50:54]<Golden_Brass> "Hmm. Maybe we could get the team drunk in celebration..." Brass remarks to Bellator. (As they head off into the proverbial sunset. :P)
