Dusk x Fine Dining

[9/23/2013 9:43:21 PM] Deffmobile: Dusk wastes no time in trying to get things set up.  He picks up the unicorn and carries him on his back.  "Kezeck, you know what to do.  Just keep him occupied for a minute so that we can get in position."  He the looks up at Night Terror.  "just do as I say, and you'll be fine.  Understood?"
[9/23/2013 9:44:43 PM] Night Terror: "E-Eep…!" Night jumped a bit as Dusk picked him up, relaxing a bit as the stallion set him on his back. "O-OK, D-D-D-Dusk…"

Fine Dining whistled tunelessly as he approached the tent, his mind on Dusk and the meal he thought he was going to have. "Ooh, I can't wait to eat Dusk again~!"
[9/23/2013 9:50:48 PM | Edited 9:53:44 PM] Deffmobile: Kezeck was waiting at the door flap as Dusk and Night Terror slip out into another section off part of the tent.  He grins as he sees the stallion approaching.  "Ah, so you have come!  I'm so glad to see you."  He holds out a claw in greeting.  "I'm sure that you have seen me before, but my name is Kezeck.  I have heard about your appetite, and I have to say that I am happy to have another pony-lover."

Dusk slips into a room with a table set up with some large platters and some garnishings.  He carefully sets the unicorn down on a platter with half a large piece of bread on it, which looks to be the bottom half of a sandwich; he pulls out a bottle and hooves it over to Night terror.  "Okay, take this; it should help you sleep throughout the entire thing.  The last thing we need is for him to think that you are a willing meal, or else this will all be meaningless for him."
[9/23/2013 9:55:23 PM | Edited 9:58:24 PM] Night Terror: Fine Dining smiled at the gryphon, shaking the outstretched claw with his hoof. "Well, it's nice to finally see you, Kezeck~!" he said happily, smiling innocently at the gryphon. "I'm sure you've heard a lot about me through Dusk… Speaking of which, where are he and Night?"

Night took the bottle, staring up at Dusk nervously, clearly worried about this plan. "I-I hope you and K-K-Kezeck know what you're d-d-d-d-doing…" he whimpered softly.
[9/23/2013 10:01:44 PM] Deffmobile: Kezeck shrugs as he shakes the hoof, still smiling at Fine Dining.  "Dusk is making preparations for tonight's meal.  But I'm not entirely sure who this 'Night' is.  In any case, while the final touches are being set in place, why don't you tell me how you acquired such a taste?  I know that it is pleasurable, but surely there is a reason why you started."

Dusk smiles reassuringly as he takes up his own spot on the table, drizzling himself with some smoky sauce and lying down in some greens.  "Don't worry, you have both us and Madame Oculous to watch over you.  And we will do our best to make your brother understand the  error of his way.  Now please, drink up."
[9/23/2013 10:06:28 PM] Night Terror: Fine Dining blushed a bit, smiling at Kezeck. "I-I… It happened when me and my little brother Night were foals… We were just playing around, and the next thing we know, he's in my tummy!" He frowned a bit, looking down. "B-But Little Brother isn't exactly happy with that…"

"A-All right…" Night tentatively drank from the bottle, making a bit of a face at the taste, whimpering as Dusk also climbed onto a platter. He moaned as his vision started blurring.
[9/23/2013 10:13:40 PM] Deffmobile: Kezeck nods as he listens to Fine Dining, putting forth his best face possible.  "I see...your brother isn't happy about being eaten, then.  But I doubt you eat just him.  You seemed to rather enjoy my partner, or so he brags!  Tell me, are there may others that you have eaten?"

Dusk nods as he see Night Terror drift away, and he hold up his hoof to signal for the others.  In an instant, a few other ponies finish up the preparations, covering the unicorn the rest of the way with the other part of the sandwich and covering that with a lid.  Dusk patiently lies down on his own tray, and he is covered up as well.  One of the mares quietly signals to Kezeck that the table has been set up, without Fine Dining noticing.
[9/23/2013 10:15:34 PM] Night Terror: Fine Dining nodded, rubbing his paunch. "Hee hee, maybe… There's this amazing party that's really hard to get into, but the meals are simply divine~" The stallion looked around, trying to peak into the tent. "So, when do we eat? I'm rather hungry…"
[9/23/2013 10:19:15 PM] Deffmobile: Kezeck grins as he hears about this party, "Ah, so is it a hunting party?  I so love to find meals to eat.  I take it that you love to hunt ponies as such, too, or else the party wont be so enjoyable!"  He sees the mare signal, and he bows slightly to motion fine Dining in.  "But let us take a seat, first; it seems that everything is ready."
[9/23/2013 10:24:00 PM] Night Terror: "OK~!" Fine Dining walked into the tent, smiling at the set up dinner table. "Oh, a lot of preparation went into this~" He shook his head at Kezeck, sitting down in a seat. "It's not a hunting party. It's more of a fine society thing… But I'm not one to pass up dinner~!"
[9/23/2013 10:26:29 PM] Deffmobile: Kezeck nods as he takes a seat for himself, motioning for one of the attendants to pour out some wine.  "I see...I'm afraid I have no place in such an event.  Still, you have to find your meals some way, yes?"  The two mares pour out glasses of wine for the pony and griffon, and Kezeck takes a sip, grinning.
[9/23/2013 10:27:48 PM] Night Terror: "Wine, too? You're spoiling me!" the stallion giggled, blushing a bit as he drank from the wine glass. "So, what's for dinner? Is it Dusk? Please tell me it's Dusk~!" he panted, visibly drooling a bit.
[9/23/2013 10:30:33 PM] Deffmobile: Kezeck grins as he motions again for the mares to open up the tray in front of Fine Dining, revealing Dusk lying down on a bed of greens, covered in sauce.  Dusk grins as he looks up at Fine Dining.  "So, you're here for seconds, and not a moment too soon; Kezeck was wondering if he should just eat me, too."
[9/23/2013 10:32:44 PM] Night Terror: The white earth pony smiled at Dusk lying in greens on the platter in front of him. "You're so nice to me…!" Fine Dining gasped happily, giving Dusk an eager lick. "And so tasty, too… The greens and sauce compliment your flavor nicely~!"
[9/23/2013 10:35:26 PM] Deffmobile: The other mare opens up the tray in front of Kezeck, revealing a sandwich that is moving ever so slightly, but has covered up the sleeping Night Terror entirely.  Kezeck grins over at Fine dining, holding up his glass.  "To good meals, and to Fine Dining."  Dusk chuckles as he is licked.  "Indeed!  Now, dig in, you two!"
[9/23/2013 10:36:49 PM] Night Terror: Fine Dining looked curiously at Kezeck's meal. "That's an awfully large sandwich…" he said slowly, staring at it. "It's almost pony-sized… Unless the pony was smaller than normal."
[9/23/2013 10:39:30 PM] Deffmobile: Kezeck shrugs as he picks up the sandwich.  "I tend to hunt for my meals, but I keep them alive and whole.  Do not worry, the pony wont suffer for this; I knock them out so that they sleep peacefully."  Dusk smiles as he places a hoof over Fine Dining's mouth.  "You're not the only one with tastes for pony.  I, too, love to snack on them~"
[9/23/2013 10:41:50 PM] Night Terror: He reached up with a hoof. "But I'm curious to see what that pony looks like." Fine Dining blushed, giving a small smile to Dusk and Kezeck. "Give me one look at a pony and I can tell you what they'll taste best with~" He made a grab for the sandwich. "Come on, show me who's in there..."
[9/23/2013 10:47:07 PM] Deffmobile: Kezeck shrugs as he opens up the sandwich, revealing Night Terror, unconscious but alive.  "Well, can you tell me what to put on him?  I DO love to try something new for each pony~"  Dusk doesn't move from his spot as he watches.  "Ah, so you caught a unicorn, this time!  Have to be careful, Kezeck; last time I got hit by some nasty magic, couldn't stop laughing for an hour!"
[9/23/2013 10:49:18 PM] Night Terror: "L-Little Brother…?!" Fine Dining gasped, looking up. His face somehow got whiter, his jaw slowly opening. "H-How did…?" He got up, striding over to Kezeck to thoroughly convince himself that it was truly Night in the sandwich. "How…?"
[9/23/2013 10:51:46 PM] Deffmobile: Kezeck shrugs as he closes up the sandwich again.  "Little brother?  Well...this is a bit awkward...but a meal is a meal, right?"  He lifts up the sandwich to his now gaping beak, preparing for the stallion to make a move.
[9/23/2013 10:54:47 PM] Night Terror: "N-No…!" Fine Dining put a stern, firm hoof on Kezeck's claw, stopping the sandwich from reaching his beak. "I-I'm sorry, but… Perhaps we could call a trade or something? L-Little Brother doesn't like being eaten…!" He whimpered, his ears and mouth uncharacteristically drooping.
[9/23/2013 10:59:27 PM] Deffmobile: Kezeck glares at the stallion, shaking him off as he feels the hoof on him.  "Listen...I haven't had a pony in me for a long time, and I'm starting to get really hungry!  Dusk over there can't do it as he wont stay in there long enough for me to digest."  He flies up as he takes the sandwich with him.  "So annoying...and I thought you would understand!"  He shoves the sandwich into his mouth, making crunching noises that were caused by some chips cleverly put in the sandwich.
[9/23/2013 11:02:00 PM] Night Terror: "L-Little Brother…?" Fine Dining's eyes widened at the crunching sound, the stallion just standing there, a shocked expression on his face. "N-No…" His knees slowly buckled, the stallion collapsing onto the ground. "No…"
[9/23/2013 11:06:33 PM] Deffmobile: Dusk walks up to Fine Dining, using his acting abilities to force a smile as he sits down next to him.  "What's wrong, now?  I thought you ENJOYED eating a meal, just like him!"  He looks up to Kezeck, who had by now swallowed his entire meal and let out a heavy sigh.  "Ohhh~  That was good..."  He pats his belly happily as he looks back down.  "See?  It was a nice little snack, is all!  Nothing anypony would miss~"
[9/23/2013 11:10:09 PM] Night Terror: The stallion just sat there, staring at Kezeck in shocked disbelief. Then his eyes started watering, a tear gently rolling down his cheek and splashing on Dusk. "N-No… Little Brother…"
[9/23/2013 11:13:53 PM] Deffmobile: Dusk nods at Kezeck, who promptly flies away out of the tent as the stallion signals the mares.  The lights go out for a moment, only to have a single light shining upon Fine Dining, who is now alone in the room.  A voice of a mare with a bit of an accent can be heard.  "Fine Dining...why do you weep?"
[9/23/2013 11:15:36 PM] Night Terror: "H-Huh…?" He looked around in surprise, seeing nopony except himself. Fine Dining blinked through his tears, looking around for the source of the voice. "Wh-Who's there…?" he whimpered. "Show yourself…!"
[9/23/2013 11:19:37 PM] Deffmobile: A mare appears behind Fine Dining.  She is of middle age, her coat a silky yellow with a white and light orange mane.  Her eyes are a golden-yellow tinge, and she is wearing a cloak and hood that is blue with a purple fringe to it.  She speaks in a slow and even tone.  "I am Madame Oculous, the proprietor of this circus.  I ask you again:  Why do you weep?"
[9/23/2013 11:21:56 PM] Night Terror: Fine Dining slowly and sadly turned to her, sniffling. "M-My… My little brother…" he whimpered, covering his eyes. The earth pony's voice trembled as he spoke. "I-It's my fault…" Quite unbecoming of him, Fine Dining started bawling.
[9/23/2013 11:24:12 PM] Deffmobile: Madame Oculous doesn't show any emotion as she continues to speak "Your brother has fallen victim to the craving, as have many others.  You say that you are at fault, but why do you say so?"
[9/23/2013 11:27:38 PM] Night Terror: "I-I…" Fine Dining put his head in his arms. "N-N-Night's terrified of being a meal because of me…!" Through sobs, he told the whole story of gulping a meal down right after him, essentially torturing him. "I've b-b-been apologizing like mad, trying to m-m-make it up to him for months…!"
[9/23/2013 11:33:27 PM] Deffmobile: "He has been witness to an untimely death, perpetrated by his own kin; but you continued.   Others have faced the same fate unwillingly, by your hooves and stomach.  You seeked forgiveness from him, but you failed to make amends..."
[9/23/2013 11:38:17 PM] Night Terror: "H-Huh…?" He looked up in confusion, his face covered in tears. The stallion looked lost for a few seconds before crying again. "M-Make amends…?" He whimpered, curling up on the floor. "I-I haven't gone with a meal f-for months…! Not after what happened to Little Brother!"
[9/23/2013 11:39:00 PM] Deffmobile: (Uh, didn't he eat a mare at the circus?)
[9/23/2013 11:39:23 PM] Night Terror: (Forgive him. He's not the best thinker.)
[9/23/2013 11:42:35 PM] Deffmobile: "No...you have not made amends.  The pain that you caused your brother was great, but worse still was the pain you have caused to your other victims, their family, their friends...the craving is still within you, and you fail to control it."
[9/23/2013 11:44:23 PM] Night Terror: Fine Dining whimpered at the scolding. "I-I've tried…!" He sniffled, remembering the mare. "N-Not having a meal for months was driving me crazy…!" The stallion clutched at his stomach. "It's so hard to not have a meal…!"
[9/23/2013 11:48:39 PM] Deffmobile: "There are ways to control the craving, if you so choose....ponies need not die to such things."
[9/23/2013 11:52:07 PM] Night Terror: The stallion sniffled. "B-But the cravings are so bad…!" he cried, rubbing his protesting belly. "I-I… I got my cutie mark when I accidentally ate Little Brother the first time…!"
[9/23/2013 11:55:33 PM] Deffmobile: "Then seek a willing partner, one that you may cherish and put your trust in; a pony that you may eat, but will love you for it, anyways; do not let that pony fall victim as your brother has.  And should you feel the craving for others, remember the fate of your brother, how he had met his end to the craving."
[9/24/2013 12:00:03 AM] Night Terror: Fine Dining whimpered, slowly sitting up. "L-Little Brother…" He started bawling again. "H-He's gone…!" The stallion started sniveling, talking about how Night was one of the few family members he had had left.
[9/24/2013 8:54:10 PM] Deffmobile: The mare finally changes her expression, narrowing her eyes as her voice takes a slightly harsher tone.  "And what of those who have suffered as you are suffering now?  Do you not think it hypocritical to grieve for one and yet be so insensitive to many?"
[9/24/2013 8:56:28 PM] Night Terror: Fine Dining cringed, crying a bit more. "I-I am sorry…!" he whimpered sadly. And to a point, the stallion did feel bad for his meals. "T-The urge is just so strong…! I go crazy without feeding it!"
[9/24/2013 9:00:07 PM] Deffmobile: "I am not telling you to be sorry; I am telling you to change how you deal with the craving!"  She softens her expression again, and her voice is now more even.  "FIne Dining...I am offering you a way to change yourself for the better.  It will take some effort, but it is the only way to stop this cycle of suffering."
[9/24/2013 9:01:49 PM] Night Terror: "A w-way to change…?" he said slowly, looking up through his tears. He looked at her, the barest glimmer of hope in his face. "P-Please…!" Fine Dining cried out. "What is it? I'll do anything!"
[9/24/2013 9:10:38 PM] Deffmobile: "The craving itself cannot be eliminated, but how a pony deals with it is another matter..."  She lights up her horn, the golden aura shimmering in the dimly lit room.  "If you allow it, I shall make a mark upon your mind.  A reminder to the suffering that has been afflicted upon you.  It will not stop the craving, but it will make you think for a moment before it overtakes you."  She slowly moves forward to the stallion.  "It would be wise to consume those who are only willing, and to ensure that they will not be harmed in the end.  In this way, the mark will not inflict suffering."
[9/24/2013 9:12:20 PM] Night Terror: He nodded, slowly getting up as the mare approached him. "O-Oh, all right… I'll try my best to keep myself in check!" Fine Dining gave her the barest of smiles and a serious nod. "I-I can't thank you enough for this…!" he whimpered softly.
[9/24/2013 9:15:04 PM] Deffmobile: The mare nods as she places her horn against his head.  A bright flash emits from her horn as she closes her eyes, and the whole room is lit up.  Once she is finished, she steps back.  "Now...attempt to consume me; understand how the mark will work."
[9/24/2013 9:17:05 PM] Night Terror: "A-All right…" He tentatively walked up to the mare, shaking his head a bit to clear his head of the excess magic. Fine Dining opened his mouth wide, lowering it towards her head… and stopped. His eyes widened a bit and the stallion's mouth snapped shut, his head drooping. "O-Oh…"
[9/24/2013 9:21:39 PM] Deffmobile: The mare slowly nods.  "Again, this will only trigger when desiring to eat unwilling ponies, and when there is danger to willing ones.  As Dusk has learned on his own, the craving is not a thing to be ashamed of, simply to be...diverted to another state of mind.  Do not think of your meals as simply that, but as partners in a state of mutual trust."  She turns around and flickers a little smile.  "And now you will learn of the truth."
[9/24/2013 9:22:54 PM] Night Terror: "Th-Thank you…!" Fine Dining gasped, bowing a bit in awe and respect. He glanced up curiously at this last remark, though. What truth? Hadn't that been why he was called here…? "T-The truth, Miss…?"
[9/24/2013 9:24:02 PM] Deffmobile: She holds up a hood, and a flap was pulled aside.  Behind it was Dusk, Kezeck, and Night Terror, the last of which was alive and well.
[9/24/2013 9:24:07 PM] Deffmobile: hoof*
[9/24/2013 9:26:59 PM | Edited 9:27:16 PM] Night Terror: "L-Little Brother…!" The stallion's eyes went wide, rushing over to him, intending to hug the stallion. Night shut his eyes, surprised to feel nothing after a few seconds. He opened them to see Fine Dining standing in front of him, shamefaced. "I-I… I'm so sorry for everything I put you through, Little Brother…"

Surprisingly, Night reached out and gave his older brother a hug. "F-F.D… Why d-d-d-didn't y-you t-t-tell me about all of th-this…?" He went on to talk about overhearing everything, from how his brother actually got his cutie mark to his frustrations and urges. "Y-You could've t-t-t-told me..."
[9/24/2013 9:30:38 PM] Deffmobile: Dusk beams as he sees the two siblings finally making a breakthrough in...he doesn't even know how long, but he's guessing that it has been long enough.  "Well...I'm certainly glad that this turned out for the best!"

Kezeck grins as he looks at Madame Oculous.  He says nothing, but the expression on his face shows that he has nothing but admiration for her.
[9/24/2013 9:33:09 PM] Night Terror: The two turned to Dusk, Kezeck, and Madam Oculous. "Th-Th-Thanks for everything…!" Fine Dining said to the trio before turning to Night. "Were you in on this, too?"

Night nodded. "F.D., even though y-y-you weren't t-t-t-t-telling me anything, I kn-knew something was wrong…" He gave his brother another quick hug. "And I d-d-d-didn't want to give up on m-my b-b-brother." He turned to the three as well. "You have my d-deepest thanks!"
[9/24/2013 9:35:51 PM] Deffmobile: All three of the circus ponies, and griffon, nod in turn.

Dusk  "I know how tough it is to control that feeling, but it's not impossible.  Trust me, I know.~"

Kezeck  "There are many others like you, Fine Dining.  And a lot of them  need guiding, just like you did.  You keep at it, and some day YOU might be guiding one or two of them.
[9/24/2013 9:37:22 PM] Deffmobile: Madame Oculous   "Remember to keep in mind the dangers of letting your craving take control of you; it can bring great pleasure, but its' misuse can cause great suffering, as you have already learned."
[9/24/2013 9:40:23 PM] Night Terror: Fine Dining nodded solemnly, hugging his brother close to him. "I'll try my best…" He smiled at Night, who weakly smiled back at him.

"D-D-Do you feel like eating m-m-m-me…?" Night asked his older brother, smiling widely when his brother shook his head.

"Nope!" Fine Dining gave his brother a playful rub on the head. "Wouldn't dream of it…" He looked back up at the trio. "I-I am still hungry, though..."
[9/24/2013 9:42:34 PM] Deffmobile: Dusk grins as he steps forward.  "Then perhaps I can fix that.  Like the good Madame said, the mark only works if it's on unwilling ponies."  He laughs as he looks over at the tray.  "Besides, you never touched YOUR meal, tonight!"
[9/24/2013 9:43:40 PM] Night Terror: The white stallion smiled gently at Dusk. "W-Well, I was more worried about Kezeck's meal…" Fine Dining happily sat back down in front of the tray. "So, if you're still willing~"
[9/24/2013 9:46:12 PM] Deffmobile: Dusk laughs again as he grabs a bottle from on top of the table and pours himself with the same smoky sauce; he had cleaned himself up shortly after the pony and griffon had left the room.  "I'm ALWAYS willing.  After all, a meal should be about pleasure, and that is something I can give out in abundance!"
[9/24/2013 9:49:56 PM] Deffmobile: Kezeck smiles as he looks over and down to Night Terror.  "Do you wish to stay with your brother?  Dusk will be fine; he has always been fine with this."  He looks back up to the white stallion.  'Besides, it wouldn't hurt to be with him after he has suffered as such."

Madame Oculous shakes her head to herself, but her smile hasn't faded at all as she looks on at the happy group.  "You are welcome to stay for the night, the both of you.  I will make sure that the other attendants will provide a place to sleep."
[9/24/2013 9:51:49 PM] Night Terror: Night smiled at Kezeck and Madame Oculous. "I-If you're offering, w-w-we'd greatly appreciate your h-hospitality! It's k-k-k-kind of a long walk b-b-back home…"

Fine Dining gave Dusk a lick, nodding appreciatively. "Perhaps it's just because I'm a chef, but flavor matters to me. And I must say… you taste incredibly good with that sauce, Dusk~"
[9/24/2013 9:57:53 PM] Deffmobile: Dusk grins as he relaxes his body a bit.  "Heh, I know a thing or two about flavor, myself.  Now, what are you waiting for?"  He leans forward to be taken in by fine Dining.

Kezeck drapes a wing over Night Terror to keep him company, grinning all the while.  "Of course you can stay here for the night!  I've been always willing to share quarters with a new pony.  To talk with, that is."

Madame Oculous makes her way out of the room, making the few preparations needed for the guests.  She smiles to herself as she feels that tonight has been a success.
[9/24/2013 10:00:41 PM] Night Terror: "It'd be my pleasure~!" Fine Dining tilted his head a bit - slowly at first, then picking up when he felt no indication of the mark. He gently took Dusk's head in his open mouth, happily lapping at the sauce-covered stallion.

"O-Oh, OK…" Night glanced up as Kezeck draped his wing over him. "I-If t-t-t-talking is all that'll h-happen." He nuzzled the gryphon a bit. "I t-t-t-trust you."
[9/24/2013 10:05:30 PM] Deffmobile: Dusk chuckles as he feels the tongue lap about him, tickling his face and matting his fur.  "There you go..."  He playfully licks at the back of the throat, trying to tickle him a bit.

Kezeck chuckles as he watches the other two play about.  "Well, it's up to you to watch this, Night Terror."  He looks down at Night Terror, still grinning.  "Or do you wish to leave them be for now, and talk with me, instead?"
[9/24/2013 10:08:21 PM] Night Terror: Fine Dining giggled, taking a bit of a gulp in retaliation, feeling the stallion start to slowly descend down his throat.

"T-Talking's nice," the unicorn said briskly, turning to walk out of the tent. "I've always l-left F.D. t-to d-d-d-do his own thing…" Night looked up at the gryphon. "S-So, what do you w-want to t-t-t-talk about?"
[9/24/2013 10:13:46 PM] Deffmobile: Dusk doesn't resist as he feels the muscular walls pull on his snout and face, and he twists it about gently to show his approval.

"Well, I leave that up to you."  The griffon makes his ways out along with the unicorn, wing still draped over him.  He simply guides Night Terror to the cart that he lives in as the two converse.  "I've always been interested in what other ponies do for a living; life as a circus performer has its' perks, but I still enjoy seeing the other aspects of life and work."
[9/24/2013 10:16:05 PM] Night Terror: The stallion gently rubbed at the bulge starting to slide down his throat as he leans forward, taking in more of his meal. "Mmm~"

"W-Well…" Night looked up at Kezeck. "M-My brother is a ch-chef for a restaurant in C-C-Canterlot, and I r-run a book shop. I'm an author and c-c-c-creator of an underground m-m-m-magazine."
[9/24/2013 10:19:28 PM | Edited 10:19:38 PM] Deffmobile: Dusk grins as he feels the throat walls rippling about him, his chest contracting as he starts to exhale for Fine Dining.  "Now...have some fun with it, Fine Dining."

Kezeck nods as he opens up the door to his cart, politely motioning for the unicorn to come inside.  "Ah, so you are a writer!  It's a fine profession, to be sure.  Tell me, are you willing to let me look at this magazine?"
[9/24/2013 10:22:28 PM] Night Terror: "Hmm…?" Fine Dining paused a bit in his meal, staring curiously at the parts of Dusk still outside his mouth. "Mm-hmph?"

"O-Oh, if you want…!" Night said, beaming a little bit. "I-I… I  write h-h-horror stories… and it's reflected as s-s-such in the m-m-m-magazine. P-P-Perhaps after F-F.D. and I g-g-get back home, I'll have a c-c-copy sent here for you?"
[9/24/2013 10:24:18 PM] Deffmobile: Dusk laughs as he wiggles his flanks a bit.  "Hey, don't talk with your mouth full.  And that's all up to you; just thought you might want to switch it up some, not just eat your meal~"
[9/24/2013 10:26:26 PM] Deffmobile: Kezeck nods as he makes his way behind Night Terror, shutting the door but not locking it.  "Yes, I would like that!  It's quite nice to see what the mind can conjure up, Night Terror."  He makes his was to a cabinet, where he pulls out a bottle of cider.  "Would you like a drink?  I have both hard and soft cider, depending on the time of day."
[9/24/2013 10:28:55 PM] Night Terror: "Hmm…?" Fine Dining took another curious gulp, unsure of what exactly Dusk meant. He shrugged, continuing on with his meal.

"W-Well, thanks for eh-showing interest in m-m-m-m-my work…!" Night immediately glanced up at the mention of cider. "H-Hard, please," he said quickly.
[9/24/2013 10:33:13 PM] Deffmobile: Dusk sighs as he realizes that the stallion doesn't have a clue, and he decides not to press the issue.  "In that case, keep going~"  He flicks his  tail about to tickle Fine Dining's chin, hoping that he would respond in some way.

Kezeck nods as he pours out a glass for the both of them, clawing one over to the unicorn.  "And thank you for letting me see it.  As I said, I am always interested in new things, as they have a way of suprising you in good ways."
[9/24/2013 10:36:04 PM] Night Terror: The stallion giggled, playfully batting at the tail that tickled at him. He reached up, trying to see if Dusk was ticklish at all…

"Mhm." Night took the glass and eagerly sipped from it, staring at Kezeck. "Y-You know, I've always w-w-wondered what it's like t-t-to work for the c-c-circus..."
[9/24/2013 10:39:57 PM] Deffmobile: Dusk gasps a bit as he feels something tickling him.  "Hehehe...oh, THERE we go~"  He continues to laugh as he lets Fine Dining have his way with the tickles, his hind legs playfully kicking about.

"Well, it's certainly a good line of work, if you have the talent and the patience to train yourself.  I am not just doing that one act with Dusk, either; I am a knife thrower, fire breather, and a strong-griffon.  Also, I have been known to show incredible feats of toughness and endurance."
[9/24/2013 10:42:57 PM] Night Terror: As he took smaller and smaller swallows, Fine Dining grinned as he tickled the pony squirming about in his throat. "Hee hee~"

"W-Wow…" Night looked up at Kezeck over his glass. "Y-Y-You do all th-that for the circus…?" He stared at the gryphon in amazement.
[9/24/2013 10:46:48 PM] Deffmobile: Dusk actually squees a bit in delight as he continues to squirm.  "Okay, okay!  You win!~"  He keeps on laughing as he slowly makes his way down Fine Dining's throat and into his belly.

Kezeck grins as he takes the now empty bottle of cider in one talon, places it outside the open window, and squeezes until the thick glass shatters with a pop.  He then shows the talon to Night Terror, showing no signs of damage to it.
[9/24/2013 10:49:53 PM] Night Terror: The white stallion smiled, feeling Dusk's hind hooves sink into his mouth, leaving only the stallion's tail twitching around in the crisp night air.

"H-Huh…" Night studied Kezeck's claw for a bit before blinking, impressed. "Wow, th-that is something..."
[9/24/2013 10:54:14 PM] Deffmobile: Dusk giggles as he continues to flick his tail about, trying to find another ticklish spot.  He feels his head and shoulders already inside the stomach.  "Alright, big guy.  Let's see what we can do, tonight... my treat!"

Kezeck grins as he lets the unicorn inspect his talon.  "Of course, that was only a little warm up.  Have you ever seen a griffon get shot sqare in the chest with an arrow, and come out of it unscathed?"
[9/24/2013 10:58:48 PM] Night Terror: Fine Dining quickly slurped up the tail to prevent Dusk from tickling his face anymore, gulping it down and patting the bulge of his belly as it rounded out. "O-Ooh… *urp*"

Night's eyes widened at this, the little unicorn shaking his head. "N-No..."
[9/24/2013 11:01:38 PM] Deffmobile: Dusk grins as he slides the rest of his way into Fine Dining's belly, patting it with his hoof.  "So, how did I taste this time?"

Kezeck chuckles as he downs the rest of his cider.  "Well, that's what is going to happen to me tomorrow for one of the shows; even if the act is great, it's best to mix things up from day to day, don't you think?"
[9/24/2013 11:04:04 PM] Night Terror: Fine Dining happily rubbed at his belly, feeling happier than he had been in months. "Amazing as ever, Dusk… But with so much more flavor~!" He poked at the rounded bulge. "So, you're doing OK in there?"

Night nodded. "W-Wow… I wish I c-c-c-could go…" He looked down a bit sadly. "B-B-But I've g-g-got work..."
[9/24/2013 11:08:06 PM] Deffmobile: Dusk nods as he nuzzles at where the poking is coming from.  "Never better!  Don't worry, I've done this enough to resist acids; I may not be immune, but it would take a day or two before I start to worry."

Kezeck nods in understanding.  "Then perhaps I can show you a practice session for tonight; it's a bit late, but many ponies around here have an odd sleep cycle, myself and Dusk included."
[9/25/2013 5:05:54 PM] Deffmobile: Dusk smiles as he hold out a hoof to shake.  "Great!  I'll let the Madame know that she need not worry about finding one."

(At this point, the rp is over. )
