07[17:46] * Zwali looks up to Xikali and says to him with a faint smile, ("If you should know anything about me, is that it is quite hard for me to be so openly trusting to anyone. I am suspicious of nearly everything and do not consider nearly anyone a friend, let alone would open myself to consider them closer than that. Trust in my words that she is a genuinely good mare... much better than I am.")

13[17:47] * Ember (IceChat77@Pony-nfo.501.168.77.IP) Quit (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)
[17:47] <Zwali> (replace mare with zebra)
07[17:47] * TGIF-1 puts his hoof against the offered one, as his interaction database shows. "Hello. I just went where Curatie went. I didn't mean to sneak up on anyone. I am Tactical Guardian and Infiltration Fighter One. Call me Tee-gif."
15[17:47] * Karina is now officialy blushing. "Zwali..."
07[17:47] * Xikali smiles and nods, not wishing to press the issue further. The poor star-touched mare was in good hooves for now, and he felt no need for further worry.
[17:48] <Night_Adder> Night finishes polishing off her wine and simply sits back and relaxes, watching everyone else with those amber, slitted eyes.
07[17:48] * Curatie is taking out her plasma revolver and a magical beam pistol, and is in general fussing with batteries n' stuff. "Tee-Gif, you should have seen the minigun I owned earlier, Ironshod Firearms CZ-57 Silver Sword Personal Minigun. A bloody beast to handle, and way too flashy for me."
06[17:49] * Ember_ is now known as Ember
04[17:50] * Zwali remembers what he was going to say to Karina and says out loud to both her and Xikali, ("Oh, I was just going to express that I have rediscovered a new found joy... one that I did not honestly believe I would ever experience since the slaughter of my tribe.")
07[17:50] * Zwali has perked up again with a smile.
07[17:50] * Xikali smirks at Xikali; ("You speak perhaps of love? Or a similar close companionship?")
07[17:50] * Gears raises his eyebrow. "Aha. AI, or cybernetics?" he asks, gesturing towards the metallic skin. He has quite a lot of experience with machines.
04[17:51] * Everpure leans down and nuzzles Karina's back "Aww, you look so cute." then looks back at Zwali
07[17:51] * TGIF-1 nods. "Yes! The Solaris Inc. Golden Blade minigun I carry is quite similar to it! In fact, I'd say, a complete knockoff. Though it is apparently somewhat modified to put part of the loading mechanism inside me."
06[17:52] * Deep_Thought (cool@Pony-erl.glh.236.24.IP) has joined #FalloutEquestriaTavern
07[17:52] * Mirage looks with interest at the energy weapons Curatie is handling, wanting to see the inside rather than shoot it. All in good time.
[17:52] <Mirage> (( insides rather than shoot them* ))
07[17:53] * TGIF-1 looks at Gears. "I am completely robotic. The processing power of a maneframe AI inside a pony sized body! I am a marvel of technology, and yet, by war stamdards, apparently utterly useless."
13[17:53] * Ember (IceChat77@Pony-nfo.501.168.77.IP) Quit (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)
[17:54] <Gears> "Aha? How come?" Gears asks, becoming very interested in this robot.
07[17:54] * Xikali notes that the star-touched mare seems to have a number of strong companions. He smiles inwardly, hoping it's enough.
07[17:54] * Zwali can't help but widen his smile slightly as he casts his gaze downward and says back, ("I... I do not wish to make too hasty a judgement in this regard... but it does certaintly feel that way.") looking at his coffee he sighs and continues, ("It is that Kirin. Lien Hua...") he looks upward now in a dreamy haze as he mentions her name.
07[17:55] * Night_Adder starts whistling to herself as she just watches everyone else, working at her helm in the meantime.
07[17:55] * Xikali thumps Zwali on the back; ("Good work blood brother. Such a wonder she is just to look at. I can only assume she is as interesting as she is beautiful for her to have captured your heart.")
06[17:55] * Ember (IceChat77@Pony-nfo.501.168.77.IP) has joined #FalloutEquestriaTavern
15[17:56] * Karina chuckles. "m'uaji kwamba ana'enda ki'a ki'u risa'i?" (The assassin that likes shooting everything?)
07[17:57] * TGIF-1 smiles. "Apparently, war robots are not supposed to remove orders that do not interest them."
04[17:57] * Zwali nods and answers Karina with eyes closed as if in bliss, ("Yes... her...") opening his eyes he turns to Xikali and replies, ("Interesting is only a word. It does not even come close to describing accurately how amazing she is. She is unlike any that I have met. So beautiful... graceful... ") sipping his coffee hs sighs and says, ("So kind....")
07[17:58] * Gears 's eyebrow continue to stay raised, which shows off his cybernetic eye somewhat. "Aha. Problems with the programing, or is an electrical failure, or...?" he asks, already having started to 'diagnose' it in his mind.
04[17:58] * Everpure mutters next to Karina "Darn that lucky siren"
07[18:00] * TGIF-1 shakes his head. "Besides the ability to overwrite or remove my own orders, I also have a complete and utter lack of motivation for anything that does not pique my interest."
07[18:00] * Curatie takes a minute to explain to Mirage about gun safety in general, showing where the safety is and most importantly; 'Never /ever/ point any sort of gun at somepony unless you were willing to kill.' "Do you want me to take them apart and clean them first?"
15[18:00] * Karina chuckles again. "Je yeye an'alau ku'apa rom ya k'anza?" She looks up at Everpure. "While it is a temporary setback, nothing stopping you from convincing her to get into her next pile."
[18:00] <TGIF-1> "Lemon Frisk simply said I was 'lazy'. I tend to agree."
07[18:01] * Xikali smiles broadly; ("Then allow me to congratulate you. If she is amazing as you say, then she is worth holding onto. Best of luck my blood brother.")
06[18:01] * Desert_Storm (cool@Pony-cjj.iok.106.149.IP) has joined #FalloutEquestriaTavern
15[18:01] <Karina> (Did she at least give you a rum first?)
07[18:02] * Gears furrows his brow. "Robots cannot be lazy... Unless they are programmed to not follow orders. Which is impossible... nobody is that stupid, programming something like that." he says. "Mind if I take a look? Maybe I can find if there's a disconnected wire or something."
07[18:02] * Night_Adder sighs a little as she removes her helm. Her brilliant white mane is short-cut and a little unkempt. "Knew I should've studied Zwahili..."
07[18:02] * Everpure perks up at that and stares off into space imagining what a Kirin might be like
04[18:03] * Zwali turns to Karina with a large smile and says to her, ("As well as something called sake. Oh which reminds me that you should try when you get the chance. It is quite good. Very different from rum though.")
07[18:03] * TGIF-1 tilts his head, and stares at Gears for a few seconds. "I am perfectly fine the way I am. Why would I want to have a compulsion to follow orders? Would you like me to crack open your skull to see if I can ad such a thing?"
07[18:03] * Mirage nods at Curatie, eager to inspect the insides of the devices, "I'd like that."
13[18:04] * Snow (chatzilla@Pony-gep.f2f.9.24.IP) Quit (Quit: Oh Celestia no! I'm melting! Why? Nooooo....)
15[18:04] * Karina shrugs a 'maybe' to Zwali while she takes a drink of cola.
07[18:04] * Gears blinks. "Uh, well, you might not like it, but the ones you created you would. What would be the purpose of creating a robot that does not do what you say? Though I guess that if you like it, it doesn't matter. Those who made you would be long dead by now anyway."
07[18:06] * Everpure trots over to the Sparkle Cola machine and stares at it
07[18:06] * Zwali Turns and notices Everpure. Looking at her while pursing his lips in thought he says to the Unicorn look-a-like, "Odd... do you not have wings?"
[18:06] <TGIF-1> "Apparently, the company that produced me had a knack of making such errors. Other listed faulty products include protectaponies without Friend-Or-Foe mechanism, and an alledged brainwashing shampoo that tried to chemically eat its way through the subject's scalp and skull to accomplish the promised washing of the brain."
07[18:07] * Everpure turns back to Zwali "Ah do, what's confusin' you?"
06[18:07] * Keen is now known as goes
07[18:07] * Gears blinks at TGIF-1 again. "... That can't be true. Nobody is that stupid."
07[18:07] * goes Keen
06[18:07] * goes is now known as Keen
[18:07] <TGIF-1> "After my faults were detected, they simply put me on indefinite guard duty and probably tried to forget I existed."
07[18:08] * Curatie starts to dissasemble the two guns, and brings out a cleaning kit. Then she rubs oxidation from contacts and scrubs out the plasma chamber of the revolver, taking care not to damage the sensitive innards. After that she calibrates the condensors and does some other sciency things to the beam pistol and tunes it's focusing gem. She explains what she knows about the workings as she cleans. "There, all done. Did you get all that?" S
[18:08] <Mirage> (( curatie cuts off at all that?" S ))
07[18:08] * Keen goes ahead and sips at his beer. Desert would be coming back soon enough. Or maybe not, It wasn't going to change the fact that he was content enough drinking alone.” ignored.
[18:08] <Curatie> (( She looks at Mirage expectantly.))
07[18:09] * TGIF-1 smiles at Gears. "Really? I thought Stable-Tec's experiments were ample example of that particular brand of stupidity."
07[18:10] * Zwali sees the duster Everpure is wearing and his mind clicks. Wow why was it slow on that? Shaking his head he says back, "Oh, pardon, they're obviously concealed." Breaking into a half-lidded grin he asks, "So taking a break from your exciting adventures upstairs?"
07[18:10] * Gears looks at the robot in disbelief. "... So... they took the robot they had probably spent a lot of ca- err, bits on building... And /didn't/ correct the error? Seriously, you got to be shitting me now. That's not jsut stupid... but also really bad for business, which I've understood pre-war ponies really didn't like." he says. He also mentally categorizes TGIF as "that lying robot".
[18:12] <TGIF-1> "Oh, no. They figured that if I was guarding something, I'd at least be somewhat useful. I have some scattered clusters indicating they did try to fix the problem, but couldn't do so without either turning me into a ponycidal killing machine, or destroying my intelligence. It is entirely possible they did in fact turn me into a killing machine, but I have no memory of it."
[18:12] <Desert_Storm> *
07[18:12] * Everpure smiles and blushes "Ah don't have anyone ta join me now."
07[18:14] * Gears nods slowly. "... Aha. Okay then. The work must've been cut off by the megaspells or something..." he says, before turning to pay attention to Curatie. He pouts when he realizes he's missed half of it already.
06[18:14] * No_One (cool@Pony-uok.qj6.166.142.IP) has joined #FalloutEquestriaTavern
06[18:14] * ChanServ sets mode: +ao No_One No_One
07[18:14] * Everpure looks down at the ground, he was just a stallion, why did she feel like this... a strong, amazingly flexible stallion.
07[18:15] * Zwali smirks and says, "Truly? Such a shame." Turning to Xikali he adds, "And you seem to have some free time as well, I assume?" Turning away and sipping his coffee he says whimsically, "Indeed a shame."
06[18:15] * Desert_Storm is now known as Sigil
06[18:16] * Sigil (cool@Pony-cjj.iok.106.149.IP) has left #FalloutEquestriaTavern
07[18:18] * Everpure slowly turns away and looks back up at the Sparkle Cola machine
07[18:20] * Mirage listens and watches attentively, carefully following Curaties words. Finally she says, "Yes, ... a few of these parts even are familiar. That," she picks up a screwdriver and points it at one of the plasma injectors, meant to ready the energy projectile for firing, "is broken. It's working halfway now but if you don't replace it soon, it's going to leak plasma." Looking up at Curatie she...
07[18:20] * Mirage ...per-emptively answers, "Energy distribution safety 101."
07[18:22] * Everpure grabs the machine in both hooves and gives it a little shake... nothing
15[18:23] * Karina lays down on the counter, rolls over onto her side, and looks at Everpure. "It's a quirky machine. You gotta hit the buttons to make it work."
07[18:23] * Gears decides that since he missed Curatie's introduction to energy weapons, he doesn't want to bother her by asking her to repeat it. Instead, he gets into position at the range, floating up his SMG
04[18:23] * Zwali finishes what's left of his coffee and sets it off to the side, then gets up and stretches somewhat, rolling his neck and cracking it somewhat. Turning back to Karina he says to her fondly in a soft voice, ("Well I am off once more. Be well dear friend.") leaning in to her ear he whispers, ("And don't forget to have some fun.") He pulls back winking at her with a smirk.
07[18:24] * Everpure releases the machine and starts hitting all the buttons
07[18:24] * Curatie "Well, you sure know a bit more about what is actually going on than I do." She waves at the plasma revolver with a wingtip. Inviting Mirage to try and correct the problem.
07[18:24] * Night_Adder snickers at Everpure's antics.
15[18:25] * Karina smiles. "Ku'aona, Zwali. Na ni'ajari'u." (See you, Zwali. And I'll try.)
