[13:05] <%TenMihara|GM> 3 *****PnP Group 7 Session 10 Begins*****
2
06[13:06] * Desert_Lightning ([email protected]) has left #FalloutEquestriaPNP
3
[13:07] <%TenMihara|GM> 3 When we last left our team of adventurers, they had been brought before Sheriff Rottingtail and his gang at the Sheriff's request. Turns out the old ghoul had a soft spot for Ditzy Doo, and wanted to express his gratitude for her rescue by giving the group access to their swanky armoury.
4
15[13:08] * +Karina has put on her deliciously ironic Four Star Security barding.
5
[13:09] <%TenMihara|GM> 3 Now with some new gear at their disposal, the party resumes it's trek towards the small town of Scrapton, hoping there to find the means that will get them into Tenpony Tower, and satisfy Keen's quest to find the ghosts of his past.
6
07[13:09] * +SmartCookie waits for the others, hoping to move on quickly.
7
15[13:11] * +Karina is currently at the back of the group for once, following Keen and Primer and Storm and Lily and Cookie as they walk out of the Four Stars Station.
8
07[13:11] * +Keen is rather vexed by the fact that they didn't have anything available for him. Just as well, not like he wanted to spend the caps or anything. He munched on a floral energy bar and sipped on some radioactive water and kept on cantering. "We should probably hurry." He thought aloud, looking at the coming darkness that pervaded through the clouds.
9
[13:12] <%TenMihara|GM> 3 A roll of thunder can be heard in the distance
10
07[13:13] * +SmartCookie treads uneasily. Storms in the Wasteland tended to hit hard.
11
07[13:13] * +Keen looks around for the source of the sound. Normalcy! The sound of the weather factories at wor... He frowned. "What was that?"
12
15[13:13] * +Karina perks up and looks towards where the thunder came from. Rain? Yay!
13
07[13:13] * +Primer had some luck finding a Grenade Rifle that was gathering dust in a corner. Woo \o/ "Yeah, time to get going." Watch out bloodwings, I have explodey death at my hooves.
14
07[13:14] * +Fire_Lily frowns. Rain? She hated rain.
15
07[13:15] * +Desert_Storm floats alongside Cookie. In a low whisper, not to attract the attention of the others, she says "We need to talk, walk with me."
16
[13:15] <%TenMihara|GM> 3 A flash of lightning can be seen off in the distrance, and a roll of thunder follows in its wake. It's getting closer.
17
15[13:16] * +Karina picks up the pace a bit and starts passing the group ending out in front.
18
07[13:16] * +SmartCookie silently follows Storm.
19
07[13:16] * +Primer frowns. "Uhm, Keen... correct me if I'm wrong... but doesn't these lines run on electricity, or used to."
20
07[13:18] * +Keen blink blinks. "... We need to start moving. Now. Like now. Start running." A few sweat drops ran down his face. "We've got a wild storm incoming."
21
[13:18] <%TenMihara|GM> 3 Anypony looking straight forward can see a sheet of rain fast approaching.
22
15[13:18] * +Karina starts running. "Wooohooo!"
23
07[13:19] * +Primer starts to gallop behind Keen. "Hold on Lily."
24
07[13:19] * +Desert_Storm looks up. Well shit. Looks like negotiations will have to wait till later. "Good call." She takes off past Cookie, not before giving him a backwards glare from behind her glasses.
25
07[13:19] * +Fire_Lily is growing uneasy. "I like that idea... I don't like storms."
26
07[13:20] * +Keen starts to pick up the pace, hoping very desperately to avoid getting shocked to death.
27
[13:20] <%TenMihara|GM> 3 A slash of white lightning tears open the sky overhead as the wall of rain hits the party. A tremendous BOOM of thunder follows close behind it.
28
07[13:20] * +SmartCookie start following the others hot on their heels.
29
07[13:20] * +Primer "Everypony keep their eyes out for a station or something!"
30
07[13:20] * +Fire_Lily clings tight to Primer and ducks her head at the sudden loud crash of thunder
31
15[13:20] * +Karina slips a bit as she hits the wet area, but quickly recovers with a loud laugh and picks up the pace even faster.
32
07[13:21] * +Keen looks around frantically. "Good call, Primer!"
33
07[13:21] * +Desert_Storm flies forward quickly, low to the ground. "Not liking this, not liking this one bit."
34
07[13:23] * +SmartCookie shout to the others: "We can take the next terminal half a mile ahead! Will Bring us on the Celestia line and from there on to Scrapton!"
35
[13:23] <%TenMihara|GM> 3 The party will have to trust Cookie's words, as the thick sheets of rain and black stormclouds have reduced visibility to nearly zero.
36
07[13:23] * +Primer "Desert, don't you pegasi live inside storm clouds?"
37
15[13:24] * +Karina picks up the pace yet again. She's now running full tilt until she can see the station.
38
07[13:24] * +Desert_Storm nods. "Doesn't mean I have to like it."
39
07[13:25] * +Primer pushes herself to the limits. Come on you big dumb earth pony broad, show them what you are made of!
40
07[13:26] * +Keen unfurls his wings from his coat and begins to fly over the debris and rubble. He gave a nod of approval to Smart and then, gasping, addressed Primer. "Doesn't mean Cumulo clouds aren't the most comfortable." He snarked between gasps.
41
07[13:26] * +Fire_Lily is acutely aware that she can't actually help to go any faster, and the only thing she has to occupy herself is to worry
42
[13:26] <%TenMihara|GM> 3 The terminal station looms up out of the storm on the groups left. There is a metal staircase leading down to the lower line on the right. The station building seems to be mostly intact.
43
07[13:26] * +Primer "Cumowhatchacallit?"
44
07[13:26] * +Desert_Storm points to the sky. "The fluffy ones."
45
[13:27] <+Desert_Storm> "Now get inside!"
46
07[13:27] * +SmartCookie follows the othes inside the station.
47
07[13:27] * +Keen "Whatever! Terminal to the left! Turn!" He sped into the terminal, looking around with his pistol drawn.
48
07[13:27] * +Primer makes a hard turn and her hooves spin on the slick surface before she gains momentum again.
49
07[13:28] * +Fire_Lily clings tight to avoid being thrown off
50
[13:28] <%TenMihara|GM> 3 The lobby of the station has a few benches, most of which are mangled or melted in some way, but a lack of graffiti suggests this place hasn't seen a lot of traffic.
51
07[13:28] * +Desert_Storm darts in after Keen, rifle drawn, scanning the inside of the termnial.
52
07[13:29] * +Primer stands panting just inside the door with her silences ten-mill in her mouth.
53
07[13:29] * +SmartCookie comes to a stop and looks around.
54
[13:29] <%TenMihara|GM> 3 Not a moment after the group makes it inside, a bolt of lightning strikes a building on the opposite side of the tracks.
55
[13:29] <%TenMihara|GM> 3 Inside the station there is a reception counter, some lockers and a few age-worn posters.
56
15[13:29] * +Karina goes to stop, but ends up losing her grip and sliding to a stop on her side. She scrambles back to her hooves and head for the building.
57
07[13:31] * +Fire_Lily is scared out of her wits by the lightning strike
58
15[13:31] * +Karina drops her hood when she steps inside the building and shakes her head to get all the water off.
59
[13:31] <%TenMihara|GM> 3 A loud rattle of thunder directly overhead seems to make the station shake.
60
07[13:31] * +Primer winces but is otherwise unaffected by the thunder and lightning.
61
07[13:31] * +SmartCookie is soaked but keeps his stuff on, you never know...
62
07[13:32] * +Keen is well and used to lightning. Not any less scared of it, but more respectful than panicky. "Take a breather and do a sweep!" He gasped out, eyes wild with fear.
63
15[13:33] * +Karina laughs at everything that just happened, then takes a few deep breathes and glances at the old posters.
64
07[13:33] * +SmartCookie checks his EFS and sees... Nothing. No hostiles at least.
65
07[13:33] * +SmartCookie starts poking around the place, looking into trashcans and stuff.
66
07[13:34] * +Fire_Lily is clinging very tight to Primer's back. VERY tight.
67
07[13:34] * +Primer wanders over to a bench and lets Lily slide off before sitting on it herself.
68
07[13:34] * +Primer blinks at lilys tight grip.
69
[13:34] <%TenMihara|GM> 3 The floor is covered in a thin layer of ash; probably whatever was left of the patrons who were at this station when the megaspell went off
70
07[13:35] * +Desert_Storm shakes the water out of her mane and pokes around the station, making sure not to actually touch the floor.
71
07[13:35] * +SmartCookie finds two packs of cigarettes, which he imediatly packs away.
72
07[13:35] * +Keen also starts to cautiously take a look around. There, there Keen. We're safe. For now. And then he trods upon somepony's pile of ashes and whimpers a bit. "Fuck this wasteland." He mumbled to himself, floating himself up instead. Counter. Terminal. Let's see what it says.
73
07[13:35] * +Primer "You okay Lily?" She tuns her head to bump Fire_Lily gently with her muzzle.
74
07[13:37] * +Fire_Lily is curled up, trying her best to steady herself. "Y...yeah. I just... don't like storms..."
75
07[13:37] * +SmartCookie lights a ciagerett and starts inspecting the grafitis
76
15[13:37] * +Karina looks out the winows at the storm, then walks over to Primer and Lily.
77
04[13:38] * +Primer looks up at Karina. "You okay? You took a tumble outside."
78
15[13:39] * +Karina chuckles. "I'm fine." She looks back at her right side, which now has a small tear in it behind the laser bolt hole. "Though I think I might've finally ruined this cloak of mine."
79
06[13:39] * Pony_12345 ([email protected]) has joined #FalloutEquestriaPNP
80
07[13:39] * +Fire_Lily takes deep, steadying breaths
81
07[13:40] * +Desert_Storm shakes her head while she picks through the lockers. Stupid weather ponies and their stupid thunder storms. Think they're sooooo cool. She pockets the caps and the toy, but leaves the cigarettes. If he wanted them, he could look for them himself.
82
07[13:41] * +Keen grumbles while tappity tapping on the computer screen, pausing to power down the computer once before cracking the password. It was RainyDays. Go figure. It's mostly all very boring ticket sales account... Except for one. Dated last, and he wouldn't have found it if he didn't get admin privileges.
83
07[13:41] * +SmartCookie wanders back around to the others.
84
07[13:42] * +Fire_Lily is finally calming down. "Okay... feeling better now."
85
07[13:42] * +Primer chuckles, and now takes her time to examine her new Grenade Rifle in detail. The thing was a dream come true. 40mm grenades as ammo and nice wood furniture, much better than that komposite shit used on most rifles.
86
07[13:43] * +Keen rolls his eyes. Great. "There's a file here. It's dual encrypted, why the hell is it..." He pauses. "Hey, does anypony recognize this?" He says, pointing at the date way after his time. The day the apocalypse happened.
87
07[13:44] * +Primer looks up. "Say what?" She didn't know thing one about that computer stuff.
88
07[13:45] * +SmartCookie doesn't bother to walk over and simply smokes his cigarette.
89
15[13:45] * +Karina shrugs then walks over to look at what Keen is pointing at.
90
07[13:46] * +Desert_Storm pokes her head in the booth. Hmmmmmm. "Nope. Nothing." She spies Cookie. Alright, now we talk.
91
15[13:46] * +Karina shrugs again.
92
[13:47] <%TenMihara|GM> 3 The storm continues to rage outside. It might be a while before it dies down.
93
07[13:47] * +SmartCookie looks over to Desert_Storm and takes another drag. Here comes the Heat everybody1
94
[13:47] <+SmartCookie> !*
95
07[13:47] * +Keen frowns. "Cookie, I need you to download this. If it's encrypted this bad, I'm guessing it's for a reason."
96
07[13:48] * +Keen sighs and slumps down on the counter. "... Even though the other part could be anywhere hooked up to the Four Star Spellframe.
97
07[13:48] * +SmartCookie looks over to keen and then starts trotting over. To the terminal and downloading the file.
98
07[13:48] * +Desert_Storm rolls her eyes. More distractions. When was she gonna get him alone? She says through clenched teeth. "Fine."
99
07[13:49] * +Fire_Lily takes the opportunity now that shes composed herself to look around and take in her surroundings
100
07[13:49] * +Keen spots Desert's tense mood and frowns. "Relax. After this, I figure we have until the morning to get to know each other."
101
15[13:50] * +Karina gets out of the way and walks back over to Primer and Lily.
102
07[13:50] * +SmartCookie finishes downloading the file after a while and then trots away from the counter and the terminal, keeping an eye on Desert_Storm.
103
04[13:50] * +Primer starts to examine every one of the fifteen 40mm genades she bought. "Sup Kar, anythign on your mind?"
104
07[13:51] * +Desert_Storm crosses her hooves. "Whatever." She had... something to... clean anyway. She plops down in a corner, her repair tools strewn about in front of her.
105
07[13:51] * +SmartCookie flicks his cigarette butt away and closely watches the pegasus. ...Ungratefull...
106
15[13:52] * +Karina sits down and sighs. "No. Just wet. I love the rain, but sitting in here soaked is going to be a pain."
107
04[13:52] * +Fire_Lily looks at Karina in interest. She hadn't really had the chance to notice her before, really, had she?
108
15[13:53] * +Karina "Rather be out there in it, much less of a strain."
109
07[13:53] * +SmartCookie trots over to a vacant bench and stits down, looking at the others.
110
[13:53] <+SmartCookie> sits*
111
07[13:54] * +Primer shrugs. "I hate being wet, you just get cold and shiver all the time. I can live without that."
112
15[13:55] * +Karina shrugs. "Exactly, but only when you're inside with no way of getting dried."
113
07[13:56] * +Keen prods at the nearby cash register, counting up 30 bits. They had a point. This being wet thing, although familiar, couldn't be too good for you. "... Here. Towel off." He mentioned, placing his towel on the ticket counter.
114
04[13:56] * +Fire_Lily gives Karina an odd look. Now that she was actually paying attention, the zebra's style of speech really stuck out to her. "...Why do you talk like that?"
115
15[13:59] * +Karina 's ears twitch and she blinks at Fire_Lily. Don't get mad... it's just a filly. Surely she didn't mean it as something bad... "A uh... habit I caught from the way the language was taught."
116
07[14:01] * +Primer experimentally loads the thumper with a grenade and klicks it shut. Perfect. She stands and trotts over to the window and tests the sight. Hmm, angles and trajectories... bah, she doesn't need that fancy talk. The fucker will go where it should.
117
07[14:02] * +Desert_Storm puts down her rifle and trots over to Keen's towel. She sheds her barding and thoroughly dries her mane and wings. Feeling better, she hangs her barding on a peg and returns to her work. "Thanks."
118
07[14:04] * +SmartCookie lays down on the bench and closes his eyes.
119
07[14:04] * +Fire_Lily gives another odd look. "It's... kinda weird. It's not something ponies normally do when they talk..."
120
07[14:05] * +Keen looks at Primer and frowns. Shouldn't she be conserving ammo? And not attracting attention to ourselves? He didn't quite know. But he knew his towel works. "... You know what the best part of these things are?" He said, wringing out the soft fabric and flapping it out in the open air a bit. "They get dry fast and are very, very absorbent. You probably need only one for a lifetime." He frowns...
121
07[14:05] * +Keen ...and kicks at the tiles lightly. "Or a few."
122
07[14:05] * +Primer stuffs the Grenade Rifle away in her pack. She couldn't wait to use it on something.
123
15[14:07] * +Karina clears her throat. "No. It's not. And you don't need to pretend like you can't see these stripes I've got."
124
07[14:09] * +Primer wanders over to the towel and sniffs it... smells okay, not rank at all. She dries her face and mane briefly then wrings it out, after that she walks over to where Fire_Lily is sitting and lies down beside the filly.
125
07[14:12] * +Fire_Lily has a guilty look, and remains silent, not even sure what to say now.
126
15[14:14] * +Karina blinks. "You -do- know what I am..." she says as a hint of a question.
127
07[14:15] * +Fire_Lily looks away. "...Yeah."
128
07[14:15] * +Keen smirks. He told them. Saddle Aneighbian towels are the Lamborghinis of towels. He took off his coat and wiped off his wings and mane some, grateful for the first time that he was wearing a duster instead of a bath robe. He wringed it out, flapped it around some, then placed it on the counter. "Next."
129
07[14:16] * +Desert_Storm sighs. Oh come on Desert! That was a golden opportunity! She set herself up for it perfectly and- ... screw it. Chocolate, chocolate never let you down. Huh, almost out. Better ration this stuff better.
130
04[14:17] * +Primer okens a can of food and idly munches as Kar and Lily talks.
131
15[14:19] * +Karina rolls her eyes. "Then not using the word zebra or calling me a pony is a little bit absurd." She stops and blinks. It's a filly, moron, calm the heck down. She resumes after a sigh. "Yes, my speech is odd."
132
06[14:20] * Desert_Lightning ([email protected]) has joined #FalloutEquestriaPNP
133
15[14:21] * +Karina "Ugh, what you call me honestly doesn't matter. The words are all just a bunch of meaningless chatter."
134
07[14:24] * +Fire_Lily frowns. "I didn't mean... it's just something we say..."
135
07[14:26] * +SmartCookie hears all the talking in a distant but loud mumble of voices... Like back home, when his parents would argue late into the night...
136
04[14:26] * +Primer stuffs her empty tin can away into her pack and burps. "Exactly, it's like your rhyming, Kar."
137
15[14:27] * +Karina looks at Lily. "I know. It's very widespread." She blinks at Primer. "Yeah... that's what I just said."
138
07[14:27] * +Primer "I know, I just wanted to get my opinion in."
139
07[14:30] * +Primer settles down and rests her head on her hooves. Sleepy.
140
07[14:31] * +Keen frowns at the goings on and decides to start tearing posters down to keep himself busy. You never know, right?
141
07[14:31] * +Desert_Storm finishes her regular maintenance and calls out to the others. "I'll take first watch."
142
04[14:31] * +Fire_Lily looks back up at Karina. "...I'm sorry..."
143
07[14:31] * +Keen mumbles as he works. "I'll take second." He mentions a bit louder.
144
15[14:32] * +Karina furrows her brow. "What are you sorry for? Being at fault for everyone else's idiocy isn't your chore."
145
06[14:33] * Ashen|AFK is now known as Ashen_Ward
146
13[14:33] * &Sunrise ([email protected]) Quit (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)
147
06[14:33] * Sunrise ([email protected]) has joined #FalloutEquestriaPNP
148
06[14:33] * ChanServ sets mode: +ao Sunrise Sunrise
149
07[14:34] * +Primer snores gently.
150
07[14:37] * +Fire_Lily gives an unsure look. Wasn't she just mad...? "I... think I'm gonna lie down..." Things like this... were confusing. She curls up on the bench with a sigh.
151
07[14:38] * +Primer reaches out in her sleep with a foreleg, hooks Lily, and pulls the filly towards her.
152
07[14:38] * +Keen , somewhat disappointed that there weren't any hidden safes behind the posters, finds a nice corner of the terminal to fall asleep in. He doesn't sleep well, as he was mumbling and kicking and tossing around.
153
15[14:39] * +Karina "Only say you're sorry when you did something wrong. Otherwise an apology just doesn't belong." With that she gets up, walks over to the counter, peels off her cloak and barding, and dries off.
154
07[14:39] * +Fire_Lily eeps in surprise, but welcomes the comfort
155
13[14:40] * Desert_Lightning ([email protected]) Quit (Client exited)
156
15[14:41] * +Karina hops up onto the counter after drying off, curls up into a ball putting her tail over her nose, and drifts off to sleep.
157
04[14:45] * +Fire_Lily thinks about everything Karina had said... and what she herself had said. It.. bothered her. Things like this were... complicated. Complicated just made her confused and annoyed. She sighs in frustration. She wasn't going to get much sleep.
158
07[14:47] * +Desert_Storm takes up her post.
159
15[14:52] * +Karina mumbles quietly in her sleep. "La'in' nin' n'ota ne zin'a'iwa k'a ma'na ya..."
160
07[14:53] * +Desert_Storm looks around. Perfect. Everypony's asleep... well, as asleep as they'll ever be. She floats silently to the bench Cookie is sleeping on.
161
06[14:58] * Shadow ([email protected]) has joined #FalloutEquestriaPNP
162
[15:03] <%TenMihara|GM> 3 After her conversations with Cookie, the rest of Storm's watch passes without incident.
163
06[15:08] * Shadow is now known as Shadow_Dishes
164
07[15:08] * +Primer wakes up slowly... Why was she hugging Lily? Oh well, might as well snooze a bit more. She hugged Lily closer, pretending to still be asleep.
165
07[15:11] * +Keen wipes his face off for his watch. Right. This was going to go well. Better than his sleeping was, at least.
166
04[15:14] * +SmartCookie sits on his bench in front of Desert_Storm making a hoofmotion to filly in primers embrace. "What about here. Do you remeber anypony ask me about how I feel taking that little bomb with us?" He then points to Karina. "Or her? Shuning me, except it's her damned hotplat?" He shakes his head and takes out a cigarette.
167
06[15:15] * Silverlight is now known as Silverlight|BRB
168
07[15:16] * +Keen looks out the window and pulls the laser rifle to his hooves. Right. Nothing was going to get close. Nothing. Keep thinking that, Keen. Maybe wishing it hard enough will make it happen. Ponies are talking. Ponies that should be asleep, damnit. Just got to get through the night. He wished he could see the stars again.
169
07[15:17] * +Desert_Storm 's narrow. "You're seriously upset about a fucking hotplate? You're impossible. None of us shunned you -until- you started making an ass of yourself. And Lily? What the hell did she do? Nothing."
170
06[15:18] * Shadow_Dishes is now known as Bael
171
07[15:18] * +Desert_Storm waves a hoof. "But that's not what I want to talk about."
172
13[15:21] * +Desert_Storm ([email protected]) Quit (Quit: See you !)
173
06[15:21] * Desert_Storm ([email protected]) has joined #FalloutEquestriaPNP

175
06[15:22] * Silverlight|BRB is now known as Silvermane
176
04[15:22] * +SmartCookie lights the cigarette and says: "Remember the SteelRanger whos barrels we stared down?" He takes a long drag and then says: "You know back home, I was virtually the only person that would even notice Karina? I used to stop by her place and talk to her and sometimes bring something nice i'd find on my sacvanging-runs. She was the only pony, zebra whatever in the whole town i counted as a friend. And now what? I fucked
177
07[15:23] * +Fire_Lily eventually managed to doze off, after much inner turmoil, and is currently snoring.
178
[15:23] <+SmartCookie> I fucked up in the hospital out of panic and now what?"
179
07[15:24] * +Desert_Storm cocks her head. "What do the steel... never mind that. Now, you straighten yourself the fuck out before you make one of us kill you. You tried to her recently? Because, from what I've seen, you haven't. But like I said, that's not what I want to talk about." she holds out a hoof. "You can start now."
180
[15:25] <+Desert_Storm> "Pay me."
181
07[15:25] * +SmartCookie takes another drag and says: "I told you already about that."
182
07[15:26] * +SmartCookie looks at her. "You remeber back in the hospital?", he asks her.
183
07[15:26] * +Desert_Storm sighs. "Yeah. I was there."
184
07[15:27] * +SmartCookie then continues: "You surely remember how you got narcotized. Who brought you to that room and put you on that bed?"
185
07[15:28] * +Desert_Storm shrugs and tosses out a guess. "Keen?"
186
07[15:30] * +Primer slowly closes her eyes. What the two of them were talking about didn't matter much to her. zzZZZzzzZZzz
187
07[15:31] * +SmartCookie shakes his head and says: "Me. And in one piece I might add. I put you on that bed and left you there, to see what you would decide in the morning, because I guessed you would be good at heart in the end." After another drag he says: "And then I repaired that rifle of yours, for nothing... And now -You- want -Me- to pay you on a bet, that you blew within less than a day?"
188
07[15:33] * +Keen perks up. In the middle of a flash of light, he saw some figures moving towards the entrance. He silently, but swiftly made his way to the two talking ponies. "Ponies." He whispered. "Love to hear you two getting along, but I saw movement. Get the others up. I'll watch the door, and we can set up for this one."
189
07[15:34] * +Desert_Storm pokes Cookie with a hoof. "If that shit you pulled at Bottle's was a joke, then you're a terrible fucking comedian. I didn't bet you that you couldn't fix my rifle in front of somepony who gave a shit-" she pauses. Keen. Dammit, she was never getting that fucking money. "Fine. Watch my back."
190
06[15:34] * Arcane_Scroll is now known as Arcane_Scroll[A]
191
07[15:35] * +SmartCookie spits out his cigarette and pulls his shotgun out.
192
15[15:36] * +Karina is still asleep on the counter.
193
07[15:37] * +Fire_Lily is snoring somewhat loudly
194
07[15:37] * +Primer opens her eyes. Then disentangles herself from Fire_Lily. "What's up?" She whispers to the others.
195
[15:37] <+Desert_Storm> "Company."
196
[15:38] <%TenMihara|GM> 3 As those who are awake watch the entrance, a single cloaked figure stumbles into vision. They way it was moving suggested it tripped while trying to avoid being seen.
197
07[15:38] * +Primer grins. "Heh, cool." She takes out her new grenade rifle and sneaks around to the open door and peeks out to get a good look.
198
04[15:39] * +Keen patted her shoulder, then went back to the ticket counter. "Kar. Move. We've got incoming." He whispered, nudging her away so that he could lean in and stand a very close vigil. If anypony that looked like a threat tried to enter through, they would get a nice bit of magic energy in their face.
199
15[15:40] * +Karina awakes with a snort. "Huh... oh..." She blinks a few times. "Hey... Keen, what's Four Stars supposed to mean?"
200
07[15:41] * +Desert_Storm moves to a window, popping out the bipod of her rifle and placing it in the window. She tried to get a better look through her scope, but the cloak hid the stranger's face.
201
04[15:41] * +Keen grits his teeth. "Karina! Later! We've got a possible hostile!" He whispers with some sense of urgency.
202
[15:41] <%TenMihara|GM> 3 The figure steps warily forward, now apparently aware that it has been seen. "Je, wewe ni Washambulizi?"
203
04[15:41] * +Primer retracts her head and looks at Cookie, Keen, Desert, and Karina. "Should I leave Lily asleep?"
204
07[15:41] * +Desert_Storm gives a slight nod.
205
15[15:42] * +Karina jerks her head straight to the door when she hears the words. "Hak!" (No!)
206
15[15:42] * +Karina scrambles to put on her barding, cloak, and bandoleer.
207
07[15:43] * +Primer rolls her eyes. "Oh, Here we go." She pokes her head out again and tracks the lone figure with her grenade rifle.
208
07[15:43] * +Keen slowly rises up. "Hold. Who are you?" He said, a magi-beam pistol ready and primed to let loose hell. Zebra.
209
07[15:43] * +SmartCookie turns his EFS on and watches the dots on it. There were three hostiles about though. "That guy doesn't seem to be hostile, but there are three foes about. Can't see em though.", he silently says to Storm and Keen.
210
04[15:44] <%TenMihara|GM> 3 The cloaked figure turns his gaze upon Karina, catching her unconcealed glyph. He raises a hoof in her direction; "Yeye ni mmoja nimekuja hapa kwa ajili ya."
211
07[15:44] * +Desert_Storm freezes. Zebras. Hostile. Don't. Pull. That. Trigger. Don't. Be. Dumb.
212
07[15:44] * +Primer frowns. That didn't sound like a friendly hello.
213
07[15:45] * +SmartCookie packs away his shotgun and pulls out his varmint rifle. Surely a better option on that range.
214
15[15:45] * +Karina finishes putting her gear on anyway then looks at the figure. "Kwa nin' una'aka mim'?" (Why
215
15[15:46] <+Karina> (Why do you want me?)  She sounds wary.
216
[15:46] <%TenMihara|GM> 3 The cloaked figure pulls back his hood, revealing the head of a zebra. However, he has some rather nasty looking scars on his face, and some odd piercings.
217
07[15:46] * +Desert_Storm hisses under her breath. "What does it want?"
218
[15:47] <%TenMihara|GM> 3 "The star touched mare will come with us. You will not interfere."
219
07[15:47] * +Primer "Fuck! That!"
220
15[15:48] * +Karina blinks at the zebra and repeats her question.
221
04[15:48] * +Desert_Storm hisses again. "Karina... you have three second to tell me what that is, or I'm downing this poor bastard."
222
07[15:48] * +SmartCookie raises his rifle slightly, just far enough to get a good shot if necessary.
223
15[15:48] * +Karina looks at Desert_Storm and deadpans, "It's a zebra."
224
07[15:49] * +Desert_Storm sighs. "Not good enough."
225
07[15:49] * +Keen is sitting with his pistol out and on the counter, ready to fire at a moment's notice. He wasn't liking this. The moment something funny happens, he'll do exactly what he doesn't want to.
226
04[15:50] <%TenMihara|GM> 3 The scarred Zebra Stallion looks at Karina, purposefully avoiding eye contact with the others. "You will come with me. We know what you are."
227
07[15:50] * +Keen "How about you tell me why you want my friend and maybe I won't fry you into a pile of ash."
228
07[15:51] * +Primer takes the grenade rifles grip in her mouth and pushes the safety off with her lip. All he had to do was fart wrong, and she'd make him black and white scenery.
229
15[15:51] * +Karina looks around. "Shut up!"
230
15[15:51] <+Karina> around at her compansions*
231
15[15:51] <+Karina> companions*
232
07[15:51] * +Desert_Storm levels Gasoline Dreams on the zebra. She took a slow breath in. Her crosshair moves upward right into his eye. "Fuck that."
233
07[15:51] * +SmartCookie furrows his brows. This didn't sound good at all... No matter what they wouldn't take her. He got them in this mess he'd fucking try to protect them with his life.
234
[15:51] <%TenMihara|GM> 3 The zebra doesn't even look at Keen. "This does not concern you. Stay out of the way."
235
07[15:52] * +Keen glares at the zebra. "You want my friend to do something I may or may not approve of. That concerns me."
236
15[15:52] * +Karina looks back at the zebra, her nervousness gone and replaced with a mix of... well concern. "How do you know what I am?"
237
07[15:52] * +SmartCookie and they though he got to be an asshole.
238
07[15:53] * +Fire_Lily is starting to stir from all the yelling, still too close to sleep to understand what's being said, but awake enough to know someone was talking... in loud, angry voices. She opens her eyes and looks around, exhausted.
239
[15:54] <%TenMihara|GM> 3 Keen suddenly feels a pair of blows strike him. First in the head with a spiked pony-shoe, then in the gut with a very hard hoof.
240
07[15:55] * +Desert_Storm squeezes the trigger, oh so gently.
241
15[15:56] * +Karina spins when Keen is hit. "Ki'a m'u kua'a ku'onga sasa hivi!" (Everyone stop moving right now!)
242
[15:56] <+Desert_Storm> "No promises."
243
07[15:57] * +SmartCookie doesn't move as instructed.
244
15[15:58] * +Karina turns back to the zebra. "Una'aka nin' k'angu kwa a'ili ya?" (What do you want me for?)
245
04[15:58] * +Keen staggers back and is quite dazed. He didn't hear that from Karina. He didn't hear the sound of ponies trying to be reasonable, either. All he heard was the ringing in his ears as he was hit and the words "OPEN FIRE! A COUPLE ARE BEHIND ME!" escape from his lips.
246
07[15:59] * +Primer twitches in surprise as Keen shouts in pain, and pulls the trigger, sending a 40mm grenade flying across the space between her and the Zebra out on the railway line.
247
07[15:59] * +Desert_Storm opens fire. Sorry zebra, nothing personal. Well...

257
07[16:14] * +Desert_Storm pulls back the bolt on her rifle, the empty casing clattering to the floor with a satisfying ping. She turns to Keen and draws her sidearm (sidehoof?). It was a little to close to negotiate with her rifle anyway.

267
[16:29] <%TenMihara|GM> 3 Both the zebra with the spiked shoes and the one striking barehoofed lay into Keen, the one standing in the way of their intended target.
268
04[16:32] <%TenMihara|GM> 3 Each of them lands two blows on Keen, attempting to pummel him out of commission. Zebra hooves hurt. Meanwhile, the thrid jumps onto the counter alongside Karina and bars her path.
269
04[16:33] <%TenMihara|GM> 3 The third zebra is tense while she watches Karina, ready to strike at a moment's provocation.
270
15[16:34] * +Karina looks around the room and starts shouting. "Everyone stop fighting! Right! Now!" She waits to see if anyone actually stops fighting.

07[16:37] * +Keen is wild-eyed and pumping full of adrenaline and pain. His chest had a very uncomfortable shifting feeling in it. No think. No listen. Only laser beams. Yes.
274
[16:41] <%TenMihara|GM> 3 The spike-shod zebra yelps as the searing magical energy burns into him. He tosses his sizzling cloak aside, revealing that he too has a number of scars and bizarre piercings.
275
07[16:43] * +Keen whirls around and lets four shots out diving out of the counter in a move not unlike something out of a John Moo motion picture.
276
04[16:45] * +SmartCookie spins around and takes SATS-aim at the one zebra's foreleg, that was blocking Karina.
277
[16:47] <%TenMihara|GM> 3 The first shot tears through the Zebra's leg, causing it to fall to one knee. Thsi causes the second shot to lodge itself neatly in the side of the zebra mare's head. She topples from the counter, dead.
278
07[16:49] * +Fire_Lily is DEFINITELY awake after the sounds of gunfire. She stands, a little shaky, looking around for the attackers. When she notices the zebras attacking Keen, she lashes out with her magic at the one not being assaulted, out of panic. "Don't hurt him... don't hurt him!"
279
[16:52] <%TenMihara|GM> 3 The unharmed, barehoofed zebra turns in time to catch Lily's spell right in the face. She lets out a shriek of terror and stumbles backwards, tripping over herself as she tried to flee.
280
15[16:55] * +Karina gasps as the mare in front of her is shot in the head. She looks around again. "Stop!"
281
07[16:55] * +Fire_Lily is staring at the fleeing zebra, surprised at her own spell's effects. I did that...?
282
07[16:56] * +SmartCookie shouts to the others: "Catch her!"
283
07[16:59] * +Desert_Storm trots over to the one she shot earlier. Standing over him, she puts him out of his misery. He wouldn't be saying much anyway. She fires two shots from her pistol.
284
[17:02] <%TenMihara|GM> 3 The zebra can't say anything through his shattered jaw, and falls aside as the doubletap finishes him off.
285
15[17:05] * +Karina pulls her 10mm and rushes to stand over the fleeing zebra between it and the door it was headed towards. "Time to settle this dispute! Next pony or zebra that moves I'm going to shoot!" She looks around at everyone then back at the zebras. "Una'aka nin?!" (What do you want?!)

291
04[17:12] <%TenMihara|GM> 3 The zebra mare attempting to flee backs away from Karina, looking around and seeming absolutelt terrified. The other zebra runs towards her; "Hawazungumzi nje ya Quithe upande!"
292
[17:14] <%TenMihara|GM> 3 He raises one of his spikeshod hooves over her head.
293
15[17:15] * +Karina snorts. "Mim si'ali-" She blinks at the one with the raised hoof. "N'yo?" (I don't- Yes?)

[17:20] <%TenMihara|GM> 3 Immediately after striking his companion, the spikeshod zebra stallion is peppered with bullets and falls against the counter, leaving a bloody smear.

303
[17:22] <%TenMihara|GM> 3 The zebra mare has gone cross eyed and is clutching at her head. There are nasty puncture wounds where she was hit.
304
15[17:22] * +Karina holsters her pistol and looks around. "Keen!"
305
15[17:22] * +Karina is -not- happy.
306
07[17:23] * +Keen is on the other side of the counter, prone and clutching at his rib and bleeding from the forehead pretty badly. "W-what." He says, getting his bandages out from his bandoleer.
307
15[17:24] * +Karina "Fix your head then get over here and fix this zebra that fled." She looks back at the zebra mare. "Je una'we'a ku'ema?" (Can you speak?)
308
07[17:25] * +Fire_Lily drops back down to the bench, shaking from the adrenaline. She is very, very confused. "What's going on..."
309
07[17:26] * +Primer pockets the grenade and holsters her gun. She then sits down by Fire_Lily and wraps her in both a foreleg and her braided tail.
310
07[17:27] * +Keen retrieves another roll of bandages and patches himself up before moving onto the last Zebra. "Sir, you're very, very lucky she's in a merciful mood." He said, patching him up. Would he have executed him? No. Did he think that would help interrogations? Maybe.
311
04[17:27] <%TenMihara|GM> 3 The Zebra attempts to focus on Karina; ("You do not know the forces that speak to you.")
312
06[17:28] * TenMihara|GM sets mode: +v SmartCookie
313
15[17:28] * +Karina cocks her head. "Vipi ku'usu wewe kunia'bia ku'usu wao basi?" (How about you tell me about them, then?)
314
07[17:28] * +SmartCookie takes his weapon down and reloads it, before holstering it.
315
07[17:29] * +Fire_Lily leans against Primer, appreciating the comfort.
316
07[17:30] * +Keen begins to bandage this - oh it's a mare - Zebra mare up. Though he's not as lenient with the healing potions and the medical magic. Those can wait until she's done explaining herself.
317
04[17:31] * +Primer "I think they were out to kill Kar or something... I don't know, I don't speak zebra."
318
[17:31] <%TenMihara|GM> 3 The zebra mare shakes her head; "You should have come when we told you. Now /he/ will not be as kind." The zebra mare slips her tongue around in her mouth, knocking loose one of her teeth, which she then bites down on.
319
[17:32] <%TenMihara|GM> 3 The mare chokes for a moment, foaming at the mouth. She coughs up bloody spittle, then falls limp.
320
04[17:33] * +Keen looks at Karina, one of his eyes swollen and kind before looking back and- Oh hell no. You are not dying until I give you express permission to. Keen whips out his doctor's bag and begins to operate.
321
07[17:33] * +Primer sighs. "Keen, that's cyanide, she's gone."
322
07[17:33] * +SmartCookie lights up a cig and says: "You remeber the three hostiles i told you about? She was one of them."
323
15[17:35] * +Karina shakes her head and lets out a small frustrated scream.
324
07[17:37] * +Fire_Lily just lies there, trying to calm down
325
04[17:37] * +Keen is already at her throat when... Damn it. He pounds at the ground, gritting his teeth. "Oh, Luna damnit!" He waits and breathes in shuddering gasps as the adrenaline wears off. Finally, he turns his head over his shoulder. "If you would please educate us on what just happened, it would be extremely appreciated." He growled, not at Karina, but at the general situation.
326
07[17:37] * +Primer is comforting Lily. "You did great with that spell, what was it?"
327
07[17:40] * +SmartCookie smokes and watches Keen. A bloody mess with same crazy zebras just happened.

332
07[17:44] * +Keen sighs and shakes his head. "It's some company, alright? They did public transportation back after Celestia stepped down." He motioned down the line. "We're one one of their monorails."

336

337
07[17:47] * +Fire_Lily nods at Primer. "I'll be okay... I was just... I didn't know what was going on..."
338
07[17:48] * +Primer stands up and trotts over to the one Desert Storm turned into mincemeat. The starts to pick the corpse, taking the cloak for herself.
339
04[17:49] * +SmartCookie scrtiches his chin then hmmms. "For a hitsquad that was supposed to find Karina they got remarkably few informations about her on them...", he says to  nopony in gerneral upon returning to the others.
340
07[17:50] * +Primer pulls an interesting dagger out of the cloak she just put on, her metallic fingers plays over the edge of the curved blade. "Hmm.. sharp." She comments when the blade leaves a nick in one finger.
341
15[17:51] * +Karina starts to pull out her 10mm, then looks at Lily. Right... she doesn't like loud noises... She lets out another small frustrated scream and turns around to kick the mare that committed suicide. "Para' wew' pia!" She then looks back at Keen. "We need to get out of here."
342
07[17:53] * +SmartCookie comments: "Lead the way scipper."
343
07[17:53] * +Keen holds out his hooves. "Hold on. What in Tartarus' name did they say to you?"
344
07[17:53] * +Primer slips the dagger into the cloak, and she tosses her old and beaten up skank away into a corner. Don't need that piece of shit anymore.

04[17:58] * +SmartCookie says: "Some crazy zebra hit-squad apparently wanted to take Karina with them, for some reason or another."
349
07[17:59] * +Keen sits up and flumps his hooves to his sides, leaving them to hang there in hopeless, tired curiosity. Right. Better get to work. He pulled out his little burlap bag of bit coins and looked at the corpses, pitying the wretches as much as he was angry with them for being unreasonable. Four more corpses, Keen. Four more to the scale.
350
04[17:59] * +Desert_Storm blinks. "What did they want with you?" she points a hoof at Karina.
351
07[18:01] * +Primer walks over to Fire_Lily and wraps a blanket around the filly. "We have some talking to do. Do you think you can grab a little sleep?"
352
07[18:03] * +Fire_Lily shakes her head. "Not... after that..." She curls up anyway. "I can rest though...
353
04[18:06] * +Primer "Atta girl, I'll tell you later what we talked about." She then makes her way to Cookie, Keen, Desert and Karina.
354
15[18:07] * +Karina "They wanted to talk to me. Alone. Said there was something going on with me that I've never known."
355
07[18:08] * +SmartCookie raises a brow and asks: "But why were three of four hostile towards us? And why all this secrecy?"
356
[18:09] <%TenMihara|GM> 3 The storm continues outside
357
07[18:09] * +Desert_Storm rolls her eyes. Of course she has no idea. "We staying here again? Because... after that, I don't feel all that safe here."
358
04[18:10] * +Keen catches up to Karina after wiping the ashes of dead ponies from his cheek. "Really? They had a funny way of saying it." He said, feeling a pang of pain from his bruised rib. "Oh, come on. Haven't you gone on yet, you fucking storm?" He whimpered, feeling the rain wash his blood away. The ashes, too.
359
07[18:10] * +Desert_Storm shrugs. Trekking through the rain it was.
360
04[18:10] * +Primer tosses her new aquisiton at Karina's hooves, it sticks into the floor two feet ahead of her. "Does it have anything to do with this?"
361
07[18:12] * +SmartCookie follows.
362
15[18:12] * +Karina looks at Keen. "You could just trust me, you know. Other zebras..."
363
07[18:13] * +Desert_Storm grabs one of the cloaks off the dead zebras and wraps it around her rifle. Last thing she wanted was to get water anywhere. She trots up beside Keen. "Other Zebras what?"
364
15[18:13] * +Karina "We're weird."
365
07[18:14] * +Desert_Storm nods.
366
15[18:15] * +Karina picks the knife out of the floor and starts examining it.

06[18:15] * DocWinter ([email protected]) has joined #FalloutEquestriaPNP
368
04[18:16] * +Keen looks at her and just shakes his head. "I trust you, Kar. I wouldn't have gone on alone if I didn't. The question you should be asking if you're not giving me more to go off of is... Do you trust us?" He wrung out his towel, placed it gingerly over his medical supplies, then made his way out the door and down the set of stairs. Scrapton or bust.
369
07[18:17] * +Desert_Storm snorts at that last bit. "Lead the way."
370
07[18:17] * +Primer facepalms. Oooh there was a new sensation. "Keen, just wait a sec, we'll be right there."
371
15[18:19] * +Karina looks at the blue hint on the knife and her mind's wheels start turning. "I tried to figure out more, and I would've if all your shooting had been delayed." She pauses as she looks closer. "Everyone... never ever touch this blade."
372
07[18:20] * +Primer snaps her metal fingers. "No problem there."
373
07[18:21] * +Desert_Storm trots out into the rain. Uuuuggggggggghhhhh this sucks. "Stare at the knife later. Walk now. Let's get this over with."
374
07[18:21] * +Primer whistles. "Lily? Up and attem, we are moving!"
375
15[18:23] * +Karina stands up. "There is something very, very wrong... This knife... it's... well it's strong. They didn't want us dead, because if they did it wouldn't have taken so long." She looks around at the leaving ponies and snorts. She puts the knife in an empty pocket and moves to follow.
376
06[18:23] * Silvermane is now known as Silverlight|BRB
377
07[18:23] * +Fire_Lily groans, and stands a bit unsteadily, walking over to where Primer was standing.
378
04[18:24] * +Primer frowns... She clears her throat at Karina in a very pointed manner.
379
15[18:24] * +Karina stops and blinks. "What?
380
15[18:24] <+Karina> "
381
07[18:24] * +Primer holds out a metal hand, palm up. "I wan't giving it to you, I was asking what you knew of it."
382
15[18:28] * +Karina clears her throat. "Do you want zebras coming after you too? This thing is made out of a star. I'm not entirely sure it should be in anyone's hooves, especially not ours. I know it's a nice device, but stay as far away from it as you can if you want my advice."
383
07[18:30] * +Desert_Storm turns around in the pouring rain. "Let's go! Move your flanks!"
384
07[18:30] * +Keen shouts up. "Get down the stairs! We can go under it from here!
385
07[18:31] * +SmartCookie follows Keen.
386
04[18:31] * +Primer sighs. "Then toss it into the sewers or something if it's that dangerous. Or at least say thanks." She lays down so that Fire_Lily can crwal up between her cloak and her armor, out of the rain. "And here." She digs in a pocket and tosses Karina the sheath.
387
07[18:32] * +Desert_Storm follows Keen to the dry place.
388
15[18:32] * +Karina coughs. "S-sorry. Thanks." She takes the sheath then follows Primer and the party out into the rain.
389
07[18:32] * +Fire_Lily gladly climbs her way onto Primer's back. It wasn't like she couldn't walk well... She was just tired. Yeah, that's it.
390
07[18:33] * +Primer continues after the others. Yeah yeah, we were on our way. No need to yell.
391
15[18:33] * +Karina talks as she walks. "I have no idea how this will wind up, but it's too important to just leave behind."
392
[18:34] <%TenMihara|GM> 3 The party proceeds down from the Four Stars Station with a bunch of fresh mysteries presenting themselves. The worst of the storm has moved past, but it is still pouring as the party follows underneath the Celestia Line towards Scrapton. Mercifully, the weather seems to be keeping the bloodwings dormant.
393
[18:36] <%TenMihara|GM> 3 Dawn breaks as the party reaches the small village of Scrapton at the edge of the Manehattan Ruins. Further out lies the suburb of Fetlock, and beyond it the bleak emptiness of the Equestrian Wasteland.
394
15[18:37] * +Karina makes sure her hood's up and she's off to the side of the party in prime sneaking position and all that jazz.
395
[18:38] <%TenMihara|GM> 3 As the party approaches the entrance the the town, they can see the tail end of a merchant cart ahead of them.
396
07[18:38] * +Fire_Lily is dozing lightly, exhaustion finally having caught up with her.
397
07[18:38] * +Desert_Storm floats in the rear, rifle at the ready, head on a swivel.
398
[18:38] <%TenMihara|GM> 3 A pair of guards stand at either side of the gate
399
07[18:38] * +Primer walks stolidly on with an earth pony's tenacity.
400
07[18:39] * +Keen raises a hoof at the merchant cart. "Hello." He says, approaching the guards. "What might this caravan sell?"
401
06[18:39] * Bael is now known as Bael_Noms
402
07[18:39] * +SmartCookie stops at the merchant's as keen does.
403
15[18:40] * +Karina stays a little standoffish.
404
07[18:40] * +Primer plants herself. Goddesses, she was damned tired.
405
[18:40] <%TenMihara|GM> 3 The guards stop the group as they approach the gate. "Sorry, I'm going to have to ask you to identify yourself before we let you in. There's been a lot of shady goings on lately, and it's our job to keep the town safe."
406
[18:41] <%TenMihara|GM> 3 The other guard kicks his battle saddle as a precaution, but doesn't step forward.
407
07[18:42] * +Keen raises his hooves defensively. "Erm. I'm sorry. My name is Keen Shine. These here are my friends. We're scavengers and we were just wanting to find a bed to sleep on for a while and a place to restock." He takes note of the Battle Saddle. Easy Keen. You've talked your way out of worse.
408
[18:43] <%TenMihara|GM> 3 The guard nods; "Would you mind if I asked for the rest of your names as well?"
409
07[18:43] * +SmartCookie looks briefly at Keen and then back at the Guards. "Smart-Cookie is mine.", he replys.
410
06[18:44] * Silverlight|BRB is now known as Silverlight
411
07[18:44] * +Primer "I'm Primer." She raises a hoof to wave, then raises the cloak so that the snoozing Fire_Lily can be seen. Just so that they don't think she was smuggling.
412
07[18:44] * +Primer "This is Lily."
413
07[18:44] * +Desert_Storm hovers in place. She lowers her rifle. "Desert Storm."
414
15[18:44] * +Karina looks at the rest and just shakes her head. "Kar..."
415
[18:45] <%TenMihara|GM> 3 It's stil raining
416
[18:45] <%TenMihara|GM> 3 The unicorn guard who approached you floats out an umbrella and opens it over himself, then takes a pencil and clipboard and jots down the names as they're given.
417
06[18:46] * Arcane_Scroll is now known as Arcane_Scroll[A]
418
07[18:46] * +Keen is getting very tired of this Celestia-Forsaken wasteland and it's Celestia-Forsaken rain. "Can we please enter now! We've been travelling for a while and we want to shake the rain from our bones!" Since when am I the talky-pony! I don't have the self-esteem to be a talky-pony.
419
[18:49] <%TenMihara|GM> 3 The guard nods; "Right then." He looks each of you over, taking in your faces. "You cause any trouble, and we'll be having words and then some." The guard puts his clipboard away and steps aside, allowing the group to pass.
420
15[18:49] * +Karina skillfully hid her face cause cloak. WOOT
421
[18:49] <%TenMihara|GM> 3 His partner steps aside as well, his saddle lowered
422
07[18:50] * +SmartCookie heads inside with the others.
423
06[18:50] * Bael_Noms is now known as Bael
424
07[18:50] * +Primer trotts inside. She was ready for bed, she hadn't had any real sleep since the clinic.
425
07[18:50] * +Keen sighs and attempts to get in out of the cold and wet and ugh. He tries to find where the merchant made his way to.
426
06[18:50] * Kibugamikenzo ([email protected]) has joined #FalloutEquestriaPNP
427
[18:50] <%TenMihara|GM> 3 The merchant's wagon is covered by a sheet, and there are some hoofprints in the mud leading to what looks like an inn.
428
[18:51] <%TenMihara|GM> 3 A brahmin moos from in front of the cart
429
07[18:52] * +Desert_Storm sees where Keen is looking and decides to stop in the inn. Sleep sounded pretty good right now. She pushes open the front door and heads inside.
430
15[18:52] * +Karina cracks her neck then goes to investigate the cart from afar.
431
07[18:52] * +Fire_Lily is stirring because of Keen's exasperated shouting a moment ago
432
07[18:52] * +Keen is suddenly very grateful for inns. Thank you inns. Thank you and your cozy comfortable wasteland flea-infested comforts. He heads in, popping the collar to his coat. "Hey." He says to the brahmin.
433
[18:53] <%TenMihara|GM> 3 The brahmin just moos dully
434
07[18:53] * +Primer pushes aside the bat wing doors and enters the lovely non-rainy gloom. She senses that Lily is stirring on her back.
435
07[18:54] * +SmartCookie heads into the inn aswell. Sleep now, talk later. And probably dry of aswell.
436
07[18:55] * +Fire_Lily mumbles, not quite fully awake. "S'goin on?"
437
15[18:56] * +Karina sneakily walks up to look at what's in the cart, specifically to see if there might maybe be some 10mm SMG mods like a recoil buffer in there maybe.
438
[18:56] <%TenMihara|GM> 3 The sheet covering the cart obfuscates its contents
439
07[18:57] * +Primer reaches in under her cloak and nussles Fire_Lily. "We are here, welcome to Scrapton."
440
15[18:57] * +Karina pulls back the sheet to look, silly.
441
13[18:57] * +SmartCookie ([email protected]) Quit (Quit: Leaving.)
442
06[18:58] * Silverlight is now known as Silvermane
443
07[18:59] * +Desert_Storm trots inside. Warm. Cozy. Dry. She liked this place. Hoping to find the innkeeper, she looked around.
444
13[18:59] * Chor ([email protected]) Quit (Quit: http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client)
445
15[19:00] * +Karina snorts at the very well secured sheet then back away from the cart and looks around for... anything interesting.
446
[19:00] <%TenMihara|GM> 3 There's a counter that looks like a combination minibar and reception counter. Presently the stallion behind the counter is talking to a unicorn in a raincoat with muddy hooves.
447
07[19:01] * +Fire_Lily gives a yawn and lifts head to look around
448
06[19:02] * Bass_Drop ([email protected]) has joined #FalloutEquestriaPNP
449
15[19:02] * +Karina huffs then follows the hoofsteps into the bar.
450
[19:02] <%TenMihara|GM> 3 The population of the inn seems pretty sparse aside from the proprieter and the unicorn at the counter.
451
07[19:02] * +Desert_Storm trots to the counter. "My friends and I need a place to stay. How much for a room?"
452
07[19:02] * +Primer follows Desert, a room sounds wonderfull.
453
07[19:04] * +Keen sits down with a pleasured grunt. Oh, thank you wasteland, thank you for giving me a place to sit. He gingerly plucks his towel from his gear and dries off his mane and face.
454
[19:06] <%TenMihara|GM> 3 The muddy, wet pony at the counter looks away from the receptionist; "Sorry, I'll be out of your way in just one... wait a minute." He lowers his glasses at observes Storm, then looks around to the rest of the group.
455
06[19:07] * Kibugamikenzo is now known as Archaic_Remedy
456
15[19:08] * +Karina stops a few feet away from the unicorn with the glasses, standing right in muddy hoofprints.
457
07[19:08] * +Desert_Storm looks at him dubiously. "Something the matter?"
458
15[19:08] * +Karina shifts a bit uncomfortably in her old, wet, bloodied, holey, and now tattered cloak.
459
[19:09] <%TenMihara|GM> 3 The unicorn dons a smile; "Quite the contrary. I think you are exactly what I'm looking for."
460-
07[19:11] * +Keen sighs and hangs his head. Oh, joy among joys. He raises his head, reminded by the sole fact that it's ponies like him that pay for Tenpony. "Where do you need us to get shot at?" He says with only the tiniest touch of sarcasm.
460+
07[19:11] * +Keen sighs and hangs his head. Oh, joy among joys. He raises his head, reminded by the sole fact that it's ponies like him that pay for Tenpony. "Where do you need us to get shot at?" He says with only the tiniest touch of sarcasm.
461
<%TenMihara> The stallion chuckles. "Well, hopefully nothing like that. However, I'm in need of a few good ponies who don't mind a bit of a risk. Lemme buy you a round and I'l tell you about it."
