he smiles
"keyword,almost."

>>111533
“Et tu, web-wing?”
And with that, Skies understood that her fellow mare did not have her back, and she was alone in her follow power thing, to be forever doomed as the lone chick in the guy’s group.

>>111534
Skies sits down, lowers her ears back, and rolls her eyes up

>>111535
He touches her shoulder
"Don't be that way,i was just kidding."

>>111536
Skies looks up. Not to Dark Star, but to the sky (which in this case is basically just the textured white paint of the ceiling). And she realizes that there will be no swift end to her suffering. She slowly tries to accept it. To steel herself for the excess of testosterone.
“I’ll handle it... I had to put up with whole barracks full of stallions in Zaphzia, I can put up with a few here again.”

>>111537
Midnight's player went to sleep
"midnight is here now,she can help with feminine stuff."

>>111538
“I’ll... try to manage. Anyways...”

>>111539
"Its Not so bad."
Dark Star Hugs her
"How do you feel about the mission?"

>>111519
Iron stands proud
"Ready to head out."

>>111539
Silver breaks his contemplation to look at Skies. "Do we have map of Red Heart? I have map of Baltimare on me, but it would help to have something more focused on mission area."

>>111540
*Poner is hugged*
“I kind of think that Immigration should handle their own damned problems rather than sending us on a raid, but I guess it’s a change of scenery, for me at least.”

>>111550
“Good.”

>>111553
“Um...”

>>111555
Iron awaits, pensive.
(Would Cauldron get a bit jealous if I bring Midnight sometime? It would be quite interesting to find out.)

>>111535
"Now that is just rude. They are just having fun"

>>111572
>>111568
Iron interjects, knowing Skies can prove troublesome.
"Do not be too disheartened, Midnight. She is a grumpy pony."

>>111573
He continues.
"After all, she just risked her flank with the loan she got for Star."

>>111583
>>111573
Skies looks up, and perks her ears in surprise at the new source of aid, then she smiles, but mumbles under her breath “oh you have no idea”

>>111586
Iron smiles.
(More potion selling means more money for Cauldron in the long run.)
Who knew rampant greed could cause a blunt, aggressive stallion to be so mellow and polite?

Spark continues his quest of taming the changelings.

>>111590
Woah there. Don't go punishing them with boops to the snout now. That is a war crime!

>>111590
The Changeling is still recoiled from Spark’s efforts to pet him

>>111596
Spark pats beside himself.
"It's ok."
>>111594
They will submit to the boops soon enough.

Onyx checks on his new "friends"
>>111594
The bugs deserve it.

>>111573
"I will try to remember that."

>>111600
Iron nods, then comes closer to whisper to her.
"She is also really competitive and hates losing, so be careful of provoking her with even the most insignificant thing. Trust me. It will be better for the group's integrity."

>>111605
The bat whispers back
"I will try to avoid it when possible, but I feel I may accidentally tread on some hooves..."

>>111607
"Do not be too afraid. She likes to bark like crazy but never actually bites," he whispers. "Seems to be related to some sort of self-worth issue."

>>111599
Blue-eyed Seb blinks his eyes from lids that come almost from the side, and tilts his head, while Fun, with a tremble, keeps his distance a couple feet back

>>111600
The two nymphs, disguised as a bat pony and a Pegasus colt, are spooked by being the new center of attention. Dawson is standing up, though his legs tremble as he tries to maintain himself upright, over top of Rose, who is laying on her belly on the floor with tired eyes. Dawson caresses Roses’ blood red mane, as Rose has a spooked appearance of her own. Dawson looks at Onyx indignantly
“Excuse me, but you can’t just say that the Changelings are here’ without saying a little something else about it. What if I told you ‘yeah, there’s a scorpion some where in that couch’ and left it at that’?”
Ruby has rushed over to his old friends, saying things like “are you okay?” And has come to Rose’s side, looking at her, then at Dawson’s wounded left leg, which is now next to Ruby as Ruby is to Dawson and Rose’s right

>>111605
>>111607
Skies silently nods

>>111613
>>111607
Mother fucker, I forgot an NPC
Red Wine opens his eyes, slowly gets up, and looks over a Ruby, standing near him but looking at Dawson
“Well don’t worry too much about me, will ya” he says, sarcastically

>>111613
"Well then there'd be a scorpion in the couch. Don't ask me why in Tartarus they're here. They just are."

>>111612
Midnight simply nods as well

>>111617
>>111617
Red Wine is laying in his back, and his eyes roll over to Onyx, now with a look of startlement. Rose does as well.
“Well where are they?!” Dawson demands
Redefine turns over into his belly
“You’re tellin’ me there’s changelings still around?”

Ruby, in futility, tries to say “No brother, it’s alright”

Kerr and Wesley are still alarmed by the activity, but are relieved eyes are away from them

>>111620
"In the other room, I'm about as happy with it as you all are. But they seem to want to help for some celestia-foresaken reason"

>>111617
Iron nods back, returning to original position, but not before whispering one last time.
"I got your back."

>>111621
Dawson: “My cabin bedroom??!?!?”
Rose: “who is they?”
Red Wine: “why did you let them in the cabin??!???”
Ruby: “It’s a pony friend of his, Rose. He helped us.”

>>111622
She continues looking on over

>>111613
Spark continues to gently pat beside himself and reassure the changelings.

>>111625
"As Ruby said, it's a friend. A friend that you all need to thank for saving your flanks as well. And me! Where's the thanks for cutting you out of those sacs?"

>>111622
Midnight nods and smiles
"I hope I can return the favor."

>>111625
>>111629
Iron smiles back.
"No need to."
He turns to Skies.
"So, did you decide on when you are going to take the potion?"

>>111628
At this point, Seb takes a step closer. Then another step closer, to be again in front of Spark. Fun keeps his distance

>>111629
Dawson can only breath heavily for a moment
Rose (confused): “You are the one who saved us?”
Red Wine “Well, Thank you very much for that. We would have slowly wasted away until we died if you hadn’t found us and cut us out. I’d hate to be slowly eaten”
Ruby (in an aside/interjection): “I’d rather an owl eat do it quickly...”
Rose (in emploring emotion): “Thank you so much mister! Thank you, thank you, thank you”
Ruby (aside): “it’d be kind of like a fly being eaten by a spider. ‘Cept slower.”

Dawson: “But are they still a threat?”

>>111634
“Well not now if you’re going to negotiate with the natives. I can do it anytime”

>>111635
"No clue, I guess that's for my friend to find out."

>>111635
Spark keep still this time. He doesn't want them to run off again.

>>111635
"I am not exactly a good negotiator, Skies. That seems to be Star's job, but it is understandable."
He hums to himself.
"Do you know if you have a reputation against the creatures?"

>>111637
Dawson: “You didn’t kill them?”
Red Wine: “why didn’t you kill them?”
Ruby: “He gonna smoke ‘em?”
Rose: “Is he gonna be okay?”

>>111638
Edge closer, edge closer
It’s snout curls up a bit, as it now sniffs Spark’s body.
Fun keeps his distance

>>111639
“I hope I don’t have a reputation at all. If I have a reputation, that means creatures know me. And I can’t be known and still be effective”

>>111640
Spark gently pats the ground again while looking at Fun.
"Come on Fun. It's ok."

>>111642
Iron nods.
(I wonder if those gryphons remember me? Not wearing that thing on me should make them doubt themselves, I think.)

>>111640
"I have no clue what he's doing. But I feel it'll work."

>>111647
Dawson:
“Well, I guess I can understand the desire for some payback on those monsters. Just wish he had somewhere else to it than my bedroom. Thank you, by the way”
Rose (crying): “I really thought I would be hanging upside down until I died”
Dawson (looking down at Rose): “it’s okay sweetie, you’re safe now”
He pets her hair

Red Wine: “Are you sure there’s nothing else out there?”
Ruby comforts Rose as well

>>111650
"If there is anything else, I'll be sure to meet it with a hefty blow."
He glances to where his halberd is resting against the wall.
"A hefty blow indeed."

>>111651
Dawson nods in respect
“Good Stallion. What brought you around here?”
Rose: “Again, thanks”
Red Wine and ruby listen

>>111643
Fun shakes his head, and stays in his corner, still occasionally trembling

>>111653
"You're welcome. As for what brought me? A bat and my unicorn friend in there. They kinda dragged me along since they needed a bodyguard of sorts. Not quite sure what they're up to though."

>>111656
"Awwww."
Spark continues to comfort Seb in hopes Fun will like him more.
