[17:05] * Mlezi nudges the door open and trots inside. The little zebra mare has plates of chitinous armor running down her right foreleg, ending in bladed gauntlets formed of insectoid mandibles. Her left foreleg has only the gauntlet. Slung across her back is a simple zebra sword, a red ribbon trailing from the pommel. Small saddlebags lined with vials, pots, and gourds hang on her
[17:05] * Mlezi sides, all carefully secured so they won't rattle or jingle. A simple loa mask covers her face and she quickly pushes it up atop her head to reveal a delighted smile, "(Oh, I have found this place again!)"

[17:09] * Torque_Wrench pokes her head into the tavern, the pink pegasus mare's light purple eyes widening as she sees that what had been a storage closet on the outside was actually a tavern. "Wh-wh-what..." And there was a zebra inside of it. She stands there in the doorway for a moment, staring in shock, that is until the door swings into her flank and knocks her onto her face with a yelp, her well-styled light blue mane falling all over her face. Her wings flap a bit as she falls over, acking and shaking her head, scrambling to her hooves. The mare was wearing a very dirty set of light barding and a toolbelt, and there were a pair of goggles on her forehead. The rest of her pink coat was rather dirty too, except for around her eyes. "U-Uhm..." She stammers, staring towards Mlezi.
[17:09] * Starshine_Bomber (Starshine_B@Pony-a27oap.fbx.proxad.net) has joined #FalloutEquestriaTavern
[17:09] * Starshine_Bomber slowly push the door of the Tavern, the lavender coat and purple and light purple maned mind controlled mare walking in, smelling the air of the tavern "Good evening" the mare peeps as she walks over the bar and take a sit, her cybernetic legs making little mechanic noises as the servo motors move and leave a little metallic noise as she walk on the wooden floor of the room, the mare putting down her
[17:09] * Starshine_Bomber grenade launcher and zebra riffle, leaving out a long sigh
[17:11] * Dusk_Splitmane (IceChat7@Pony-r8c3bv.ca.comcast.net) has joined #FalloutEquestriaTavern
[17:11] * Dusk_Splitmane smiles as he carefully trots doen the stairs into the main tavern, a cinnamon brown earth stallion with rusty red and salmon mane looking about for anything out of the ordinary.  He has a tan, reinforced duster and two revolvers holstered at his chest.  He chuckles to himself, before trotting on over to the back of the bar, ready to make drinks for himself, and for anypony who might ask.
[17:12] * Mlezi turns when Torque_Wrench enters, just in time to watch her tumble. The little zebra giggles. And then more people enter and she glances from Starshine_Bomber at the door to Dusk_Splitmane coming down the stairs. Still smiling she addresses them all together in heavily accented Equestrian, "Hello. Good to meet!"
[17:13] * Dusk_Splitmane waves back at Mlezi, as he grabs some coffee liquer and...was that ice cream and graham crackers.  "Hello to you, too!"
[17:13] * Torque_Wrench eeps as anther pony pushes past her from the door she had just entered through. She hadn't been behind her! She lets out a whine, obviously frightened as her ears pin back against her head, looking over at Mlezi when she speaks. "U-Uhm... wh-what is this place... wh-who are you ponies!?"
[17:15] * Dusk_Splitmane shrugs at Torque_Wrench.  "You must be new, here.  If you realy want to know, this place is called the Tavern.  Just...don't ask how it works, because your guess is as good as mine."
[17:16] * Starshine_Bomber look over the tavern ponies and wave a cybernetic hoof slowly, looking over the zebra, taking some data over her, looking her visible equipment over
[17:17] * Mlezi points at herself and declares to Torque_Wrench, "Not pony. Zebra. See stripes?" She giggles again, smiling around at the others present. But catching Starshine_Bomber's stare she frowns, not liking the way that mare is... analyzing her.
[17:19] * Starshine_Bomber shake her head a bit after doing the same with the other ponies in the room, taking a long sip of her beer
[17:19] <Torque_Wrench> "H-Here? This is a storage closet!" She exclaims, not believing Dusk_Splitmane, backing against the wall a bit. She looks over at Mlezi as she speaks, flicking her ears. "A-And... I've never even seen a zebra before... none live in Friendship City!" She says.
[17:20] * Dusk_Splitmane rolls his eyes at the weird antics of the cybermare and the newbie, before he starts to make his trademark Hard Coffee Delight Milkshake!
[17:22] * Dusk_Splitmane then lets out a quick, sharp whistle at Torque_Wrench.  "Hey!  Take a deep breath, count to ten...chill.  And have a drink, on the house."
[17:23] * Starshine_Bomber shakes her head once more, rolling her mechanical eyes before taking another sip of her beer, blinking a bit "Sorry if i looked weird for a second everypony... When that door open i'm put into data collection mode and that's weird"
[17:24] * Mlezi smiles softly at Torque_Wrench and gestures around the room, "Very big closet. And free drinks! I need closet this good." She blinks at Starshine_Bomber and tilts her head, not really understanding the mare, then nods to Dusk_Splitmane, "Yes. Deep breath. Calm."
[17:25] * Dusk_Splitmane smiles at Mlezi, before pouring out another tin of his alcoholic milkshake.  "Hey, you wanna try something new?  Been tinkering with this, think I got it down."
[17:28] * Torque_Wrench looks between Mlezi and Dusk_Splitmane, and does as they suggest, taking deep breaths and slowly calming herself down, her wings folding back to her sides, a bitt of soot and grease staining the wall where she had been pressing against it. "C-Calm... right... right. You can do that Torque..." She says to herself, looking around the tavern nervously as she timidly trots towards the bar. "F-Free drinks you said?" She asks Mlezi.
[17:30] * Mlezi nods to Torque_Wrench and points her towards Dusk_Splitmane, "He has drink for offer. Maybe good?" She smiles at Dusk_Splitmane and trots closer to sniff at the drink, asking him, "Make drunk?"
[17:31] * Dusk_Splitmane was busy mixing up more of the drinks, using up plenty of ice cream and a bit of graham cracker, mixing in copious amounts of the coffee booze.  "Depends on how much liquer I use.  It's that coffee stuff, it'll get you a nice buzz.
[17:32] * Torque_Wrench flicks her tail. "O-Oh... I don't notmally drink alcohol... I'm a lightweight." She says to Mlezi and Dusk_Splitmane, seating herself on a stool at the bar counter.
[17:33] * Mlezi pouts a little and shakes her head at Dusk_Splitmane, "I do not make drunk. I am Guardian, must be alert always." She slides into a seat near Torque_Wrench.
[17:35] * Dusk_Splitmane shrugs, as he makes another tin.  This time, no coffee.  Just a milkshake.  "More drink for me, then.  Here...no alcohol in this one."  He slides it to Mlezi.
[17:35] * SkyHigh (Tom@Pony-ditu4e.threembb.co.uk) has joined #FalloutEquestriaTavern
[17:35] * SkyHigh the tavern door yet again swings wide open as that same sky blue pegasus mare walks through, "Oh I'm here." She mumbles to herself. She begins to look around, "Hi." She goes and takes a seat.
[17:38] * Dusk_Splitmane then takes a sip of his own spiked drink, before making a second one for Torque_Wrench.  "Alright...non-alcoholic for you, too.  Drink up!"
[17:40] * Torque_Wrench looks over at Mlezi as she sits near her, flicking her tail as she stares a bit at the Zebra, looking her over, especially her armor, though she squeaks and blinks, snapping her head around to look at Dusk_Splitmane when he speaks. "O-Oh! Yeah... th-thank you... are y-you the bartender?"
[17:41] * Dusk_Splitmane shrugs.  "I'm just standing in for now.  No official bartender, but it gives me an excuse to make neat drinks!"
[17:41] * Mlezi is wearing armor that was crafted from some large, chitinous insect. It mostly covers her right foreleg, with a bit on her left. She smiles at Torque_Wrench when the mare looks at it, then turns to Dusk_Splitmane and accepts the drink, "My thanks."
[17:42] * Dusk_Splitmane nods at both Mlezi and Torque_Wrench, before sipping at his own.  "Not a problem, girls!"
[17:43] * Torque_Wrench nod slowly. "Oh... okay.... huh?" She blinks at Dusk_Splitmane again. "N-No!' She says, sipping the drink. "A-And damn it... I forgot to introduce myself... I'm Torque Wrench." She says, looking between Dusk and Mlezi.
[17:45] * Dusk_Splitmane takes another sip.  "Dusk.  Just a bored earth pony."  He then blinks as he realizes that might have been taken the wrong way.  "And I'm taken, by the way.  Just like to be friendly to good folks in here."
[17:46] * Mlezi puts a hoof to her chest and says to Torque_Wrench and Dusk_Splitmane, "I am Mlezi. Good meeting Torque_Wrench and Dusk. I am Guardian, protect village. You are?"
[17:48] * Dusk_Splitmane shrugs at Mlezi.  "Right now?  Father."
[17:48] * Torque_Wrench blinks at Dusk_Splitmane and nods, and then looks over at Mlezi and nods too. "Oh, n-nice to meet you... Mellzi?" She says uncertainly, getting her name horribly wrong. "I fix things." She says.
[17:51] * Dusk_Splitmane then glances over at Starshine_Bomber, wondering how much is still pony, and how much is robutt.  "Oi!  You want one?"
[17:51] * Mlezi smiles at Dusk_Splitmane, "Father! Good job. Raise children, rebuild. World get better, maybe." Turning to Torque_Wrench the little zebra giggles and repeats, "Mlezi. What things you fix?"
[17:52] * Starshine_Bomber blinks her mechanical eyes and look over Dusk_Splitmane, lost into her though for a moment before nodding "Y-Yes... I know this look you made"
[17:52] <Torque_Wrench> "O-Oh! Mlezi! I'm s-so sorry!" She blushes. "A-And I work on the Reactor for Friendship City, and the b-big harbor guns too."
[17:53] * Dusk_Splitmane shrugs at Starship_Bomber.  "Ehhh...sorry 'bout that.  Just wondering where you got all that hardware."
[17:54] * Mlezi smiles at Torque_Wrench, holding up a hoof, "Is ok. No need for sorry. Guns I know, what is reactor?"
[17:55] * Dusk_Splitmane then motions to the spiked drink he made.  "Want a try?  Nice to mix things up, and what better way than to try it with new folks!"
[17:56] * Torque_Wrench continues to blush as she answers Mlezi. "I-It's like a big generator. It makes electricity for the city." She replies.
[17:57] * Dusk_Splitmane ponders for a moment.  "Is it like one of those magic ones, Torque?"
[17:58] * Mlezi smiles brightly at Torque_Wrench, "Ohhh! We have river. Big damn. Gen... gener... ator?" She nods, "Generator inside. Power everywhere lines go!"
[17:58] * Starshine_Bomber look over it "Yeah why not give a try... And if you want to know everything all the things i have come from two different place. The helmet on my head, making me act like a computer is from the Enclave, it's called a mind control helmet, it makes me do whatever the enclave want whenever they want. And for the legs, it's an hospital where a griffoness took care of me after my legs got the major nerves
[17:58] * Starshine_Bomber cutted off by metal chards from a trapped Terminal"
[17:59] * Torque_Wrench nods to Mlezi, smiling. "O-Oh! A hydroelectric damn! That sounds really cool." She says, sipping her drink.
[18:00] * Dusk_Splitmane lets out a low whistle, as he pours out the heavily alcoholic drink.  It wasn't as strong as a whiskey, but still has a pleasant kick.  "Luna, that blows.  I'd rather blow my brains out than get controlled by those winged rats."
[18:01] * Mlezi nods to Torque_Wrench, her smile widening as she gestures pointlessly in a direction, "Is far up river. But lines run all down river, lights for houses many miles away. Tribes used to all fight for it. Now work together, keep safe from outsiders."
[18:02] * Loxos (Adder1@Pony-uana4t.res.rr.com) has joined #FalloutEquestriaTavern
[18:02] * Loxos trots downstairs. The changeling is wearing a set of reinforced leather armor and has a sleek, lanky build. He has tiny pupils in his otherwise featureless, pale-blue eyes, perhaps as a unique adaptation. There is a hide-wrapped bulge around his left fetlock. He makes his way up to the Tavern proper, openly but carefully approaching the group near the bar. (http://kibugamikenzo.deviantart.com/art/

[18:05] * Torque_Wrench nods, sipping her drink more as she smiles, the talk of something mechaical seeming to open her up and ease her nervousness. "W-Working together is good." She says, flicking her tail once. "F-Friendship City works with lots of ponies..." She flicks her ears as she hears the door open again, and looks over only to see Loxos... and having no idea what he is. She stares at him. "U-U-Uhm..."
[18:06] * SkyHigh (Tom@Pony-ditu4e.threembb.co.uk) Quit (Connection closed)
[18:06] * Dusk_Splitmane tenses up ever so slightly at the approach of Loxos, but that was mostly from instinct.  When ponies look like that...makes him think of all the bad times in the dingy places he'd delve into.  But once the initial wave subsides, he smiles bightly.  "Hey, there!"
[18:06] * Mlezi nods to Torque_Wrench, "Big tribe come, want damn, want to make other tribes be theirs. We all say no, fight together. Now big tribe, they pay us to use dam. My father's father, he fought that fight. No big fights since." She spots Loxos as well and tenses, checking to make sure her sword is loose in its scabbard.
[18:08] * Torque_Wrench nods to Mlezi, smiling. "Th-that's good, not fighting over something as valuable as that..." She trails off as she tenses, looking back to Loxos, and then to Mlezi again. "Wh-what's wrong?"
[18:12] * Loxos nods stoutly to Dusk_Splitmane, greeting in a deep, riveting, slightly raspy tone. "Hello." He then looks at Mlezi and Torque_Wrench, clearly glancing between them due to his tiny pupils. "Is there a problem?"
[18:13] * Mlezi speaks quietly to Torque_Wrench without looking at her, "Changling. Can be dangerous." She watches Loxos carefully and asks him, "Is there problem? I do not know."
[18:15] * Dusk_Splitmane lets out a sigh of relief, before offering a hoof to Loxos.  "You'r a regular, aren't you?  Pleasure to meet you, the name's Dusk."  He was hoping to diffuse any tension...
[18:15] * Torque_Wrench blinks at Mlezi. "Changeling?" She looks over at Loxos. "I d-don't know... I've never seen a... a uhm Changeling before." She says.
[18:15] <Torque_Wrench> "Or even know what a Changeling is..."
[18:18] * Loxos answers Mlezi, "Well I hope not. I have no ill intent, and hope the same goes for all of us here." The chitinous creature turns to Dusk_Splitmane and reaches up to shake his hoof firmly. "My name is Loxos. Honestly, just came here not too long ago. Seems to be a nice place so far." He then looks to Torque_Wrench. "Oh boy... well, short story, we're a people that take on qualities of both...
[18:18] * Loxos ...ponies and insects. We don't eat normal food. Rather, we feed off of emotional energy. Questions?"
[18:20] * Dusk_Splitmane smiles and shakes the hoof back, glad that Loxos was at least polite.  "I do.  Can you still drink things?  I can make you something."
[18:21] * Mlezi relaxes a little bit, although not entirely, when Loxos claims to have no ill intent. She gives a nod and explains further to Torque_Wrench, "Sometimes changelings, they are very bad. Sometimes they are just hungry. Not many near village, but there they are very bad."
[18:22] * Torque_Wrench blinks at Mlezi and Loxos, nodding slowly. "S-So like... you what? Eat emotions? H-How does that even work? Like... you b-bite ponies with those... f-f-f-f-f-f-fangs!?"
[18:28] * Loxos nods stoutly to Dusk_Splitmane. "I can, yes. I wasn't aware we had a bartender here, though. Are there actual workers here, or is it just... on a whim?" He turns to Mlezi and Torque_Wrench. "It's a harsh world. Just as there are raiders, there are changelings that work like raiders. Just as there are ponies who try to integrate themselves into society and rebuild, there are changelings that...
[18:28] * Loxos ...do the same. You take the good with the bad." To the pegasus mare, he consciously glances downward as if remembering his fangs and answers, "It's... more of a magical absorption than physical eating, really. And no, I don't bite."
[18:29] * Mlezi tries a smile at Loxos, mostly succeeding, and nods, "My sorries. Few changelings I meet. Few more not bad like raiders. But I do not swing sword first, Guardian must be fair!" She had no idea how changlings work so she doesn't try to answer Torque_Wrench.
[18:30] * Dusk_Splitmane smiles as he makes another milkshake, sliding it to Loxos.  He was having way too much fun with this.  "Yeah, sounds about right.  Never seen a feeding involving fangs.  They're not like some...bloodsucker, or anything.  That's a bloodwing."
[18:30] * Torque_Wrench blinks at Loxos. "O-Oh.. okay then." She says. "Th-that's good. Uhm, m-my name is Torque Wrench." She says, smiling a bit to Loxos.
[18:33] * Loxos gives a slow nod to Mlezi. "Well I certainly appreciate that." He then bows his head lightly to Torque_Wrench. "Good to meet you. Take it you're an engineer or mechanic by the apparel?" He lastly turns to Dusk_Splitmane and moves to sit down at the bar. The changeling stares at the confection. "Just curious, uh, what exactly /is/ this?"
[18:35] * Mlezi smiles more easily at Loxos, nodding, "I do not like to make new enemies. Friends better!" She turns to Torque_Wrench and declares, "Torque fixes big gen-er-a-tor. For city of friendship."
[18:35] * Dusk_Splitmane grins broadly at Loxos.  "It's a milkshake!  Wth ice cream, some graham cracker...thats about it.  I can add some booze to it if you want, but...yeah, I found out about this recipe from one of those rancher settlements, lots of brahmin, and a good trading post."
[18:36] * Torque_Wrench nods to Loxos. "Mhm, I w-work in Friendship City." She says, nodding as Mlezi speaks. "Yeah, heh." The dirty mare runs a hoof through her mane, blushing. "I h-have other ponies helping mw though..."
[18:38] * Loxos 's muzzle creases into a tiny, easy smile. "Agreed," he says in accord with Mlezi. Then to Dusk_Splitmane, he flattens his lips. "Sorry, I, ah... don't know what any of those are either." He then looks to Torque_Wrench at last. "Ah, Friendship City. Was there for a little while before the NCR moved in. How's the reconstruction going?"
[18:39] * Torque_Wrench blinks at Loxos, tilting her head. "R-Reconstruction? NCR moving in? Wh-what are you talking about?"
[18:39] * Dusk_Splitmane shrugs, before going back to his drink.  "Suit yourself."  Was Starshine_Bomber sleeping?
[18:41] * Mlezi blinks at Torque_Wrench and Loxos. Her head tilts and she asks, "Recon... recon... struction? NCR? I do not know these things."
[18:47] * Loxos looks between Torque_Wrench and Mlezi. "... ah, right, this place, uh... can show up for people at different places /and/ times. It's... complicated. Do you know about the Grand Pegasi Enclave by any chance?" He then turns to Dusk_Splitmane and smiles sheepishly. "I was just curious. I'll give it a try." He takes a sip and blinks in surprise, his head fin standing up a little straighter....
[18:47] * Loxos ..."It's... /very/ sweet."
[18:48] * Dusk_Splitmane grins at Loxos.  "I know, right?  That's why I can add a lot of coffee booze to it, at least to mine.  Tasty, has a nice kick!"

[18:51] * Mlezi frowns, looking from Loxos to Torque_Wrench. She'd forgotten about the time travel.
[18:53] * Loxos purses his lips momentarily. "Might just save this for Cobalt..." he murmurs to himself before nodding in thanks to Dusk_Splitmane and then looking to Torque_Wrench and Mlezi. "So... when exactly are you from? I'm from roughly ten, eleven years after the clouds parted."
[18:54] * Torque_Wrench blinks at Loxos, her eyes widening. "Th-the clouds part?" She asks. "Dad said that'd never happen...
