Welcome back to Occupied Equestria
Dark Star, Silver, Iron, and Midnight continue their investigation and hopefully, the take down of a group of organized criminals who have taken up operations at an old fortress on the sea shore. They have already rescued a number of creatures and persuaded them to join in their efforts. Now, they most hope that they can strike with enough force, and quickly enough, to destroy the evil that has taken up residence there.
Up in the North, the ponies are waking up, ready for a new day
1600 replies and 155 files omitted.
>>118954Once inside, Silver helps to get the barrel off of Mala's back, and looks at the overall haul they managed to get.
>>118955Because Iron doesn't really care if his stallionhood is out in this instance. Not to mention he basically promised her safety if she sticks by him, so she's not about to complain about an unsheathed cock, especially after drawing the line on the activity.>>118954Iron cocks his head.
"Rude? What do you mean?"
>>118955What makes you think she thinks he doesn’t want to?>>118956Before that, something more interesting. More immediate, and more threatening.
A male griffin, rust feathers and brown and red robe, stands over the ruins of the cut up robe. He is now staring straight at Silver and Mala, and their barrel
>>118957“What is going on with her?”
>>118960Wait, wait, a male griffon
in the bathroom? Where are the others?
>>118961Yes. Indeed. The others are not presently seen
>>118958He feels less desperate about the chance of failure to woo the mare as still has other options.DISCLAIMER: This does not mean Iron doesn't want to get the cake and eat it, too.
If he can get both mares, he'll try to.>>118960Iron hums in thought for a bit.
"Well... it is a romantic interest... but I have not really confessed to her. At most I rubbed coats with her for an extended period of time."
>>118962Silver stares at this intruder with a grave look. "
Who. Are. You?" >>118964Iron blushes slightly.
"You are also a romantic interest but I can understand if it does not appeal to you."
He slowly strokes her chest fluff up and down.
"I hear stallions around these parts tend to settle with only one mare out of fear of changelings, but back at where I was raised, stallions could have more..."
>>118965He looks back. Then starts to back up. Slowly.
>>118966She shrivels her lips up into a pouty face
“No romanticism with you, is there?”
>>118968Iron cocks his head.
"Am I really not that romantic? Is it not helping out the mare you want to expand your relationship to achieve freedom and prosperity not something mares want?"
>>118969It was a big regret. >>118968Unfortunately for him, there is limited space in the bathroom. Silver motions for Mala to cover the door as the unicorn advances on the griffon.
"Who. Are. You?" >>118970“Romantic Interest?’ The way you talk about it, you sound like you are talking about whether we should go to war with the Yaks, or some sort of business deal. Not about the mare you wish to spend the rest of your life with. Where is the poetry?”
>>118971Mala’s eyes dart back and forth as he hesitates to move. The griffin, however, picks up the pace, now crawling backwards
>>118972Iron blinks in surprise.
"What do you mean by 'poetry'?"
>>118972Silver practically snarls at the griffon. "Ponish. Speak.
Now."
Silver shows no sign of stopping his advance.
[1d20+5 = 24]>>118973She sighs
Sense motive on general state of emotions
>>118974He backs further up. Then Mala darts over to the door, causing him to turn to try to run, and they both collide, briefly knocking both down.
>>118975Confusion, mostly, as he never was taught the arts of stringing words together in verses since he'd rather be doing physical work.
[1d20+2 = 10]>>118975Strength: Silver attempts to pin the griffon.
[1d20+3 = 4][1d20+2 = 7][1d20 = 20]>>118976Not the specific reaction to the specific posed question. His general emotional state
>>118977Silver jumps down on the creature. From behind, a loud “sling!” and the shower curtain explodes in a frenzy, the blue opaque plastic giving way to brown and tan. First a beak, then the slim body of a cat exits, jumps out, then bounds off the floor in as a cat in pounce does. Slower to start, the pangolin pony follows behind, with a loud “clop” as her hooves hit the floor in a powerful, of less graceful manner. Claws from the griffin lurch forward and onto Silver’s quarry, followed by the added hooves
>>118977>>118978The griffin tries to get up, and slips, falling back down. Khoi Lua leaps forward, strikes him right in the head, and pins him down, adding to Silver’s mostly successful efforts
>>118978General emotional state?
Well he's still kinda horny and eager to please in whatever way possible if his erect phallus is any hint of that. Aside from that, he is intrigued by this poetry stuff Sands is currently talking about as well as her questioning of his relationship with her and Cauldron. There is a looming frustration over his inability to properly reach a satisfactory conclusion with Cauldron due to his insecurity as a provider but ultimately does have hope he can meet the need of both Sands and Cauldron in all aspects given enough time.
Is that good?
[1d20+4 = 14]>>118978>>118979Use Rope: Silver is visibly relieved at the appearance of the others. He uses this opportunity to tie the griffon up with his rope.
>>118980She closes her eyes and and shakes her head
“What happens
tonight? To you, to me, and to us?”
>>118981The griffin on the floor has fallen, is hit in the head, has crashed into another creature, and is triply pounced. Mala stands up with an embarrassed smile, and the griffin in the floor is tied well
Khoi Lua:
“Tie his beak up too, we don’t need him squaking”
Jubilosa seems to be ahead of her. She shoves a luffa sponge into his mouth, pressing it deeper as his tongue slightly leans out.
>>118982Silver actually hugs Jubilosa and Khoi briefly as an expression of his relief. "Thank Goddesses, you two are safe! How are others? Are they safe, too?"
>>118982"We beat the griffons that mistreated you and shut their scheme down by killing the leaders if we have to."
He ponders a bit while he still applies the gentle strokes on her chest.
"After that, I give you a job to rise up economically to further whatever individual desires you may have, like supporting and taking care of the elderly, and I pay you for a place to stay to help you out during the process."
Iron blushes slightly as he continues.
"After that, we can have some dinner together."
>>118983Khoi is surprised. Jubilosa is shocked at this sudden attack, pushing away in futility at the attacking forelegs. Yet both are hugged.
>>118984Her face is twisted until “dinner”
“Tell me more”
>>118985He does relent, if only so he can repeat his question. "Are others safe? Where are they?"
>>118986Jubilosa is still surprised by the... ponies call it a ‘hug’?
Khoi answers
“I think that tall one was in hallway”
>>118985Iron hums a bit, before continuing.
"We could then have a walk in the park, sit on a grassy patch and watch the stars together."
He puts his other hoof on her cheek.
"Have a nice cuddle under the moonlight..."
and moves his muzzle closer to hers, lips hovering inches from hers.
"...maybe a little kiss."
>>118988Now, she smiles back, in a more toothy, malicious grin. She places both of her hooves on Iron’s shoulders
“Maybe a little kiss...
>>118990“The big grey wingless hornless one went off with...”
She shakes her head
“And that griffin that came with the grey one is behind you”
Jubilosa:
“Why did you tackle us?”
>>118989Iron chuckles gleefully before kissing Sands' snot lightly.
>>118991"And Loputu? Where is he?"
Silver gives Jubilose a look of confusion. "You...mean that hug?"
>>118992She goes cross eyed at the approaching muzzle, not expecting that
>>118994“Oh...”
Khoi looks away, wide eyed
“I am... not sure where he is”
>>118995"...Loputu? Loputu, where are you?" Silver looks around for the little colt.
>>118995Iron chuckles some more, deciding to give her one more kiss on her neck and speaks again.
"I am sure the others should have finished preparations by now."
His member twitches slightly.
"Do you want to go back?"
[1d3 = 1]>>118996>>118997She makes a wrinkled frown
“I suppose...”
>>118999Iron chuckles at her frowning before nuzzling her as he gets off of her with a trail of kisses up to her teats.
"Do not worry, we can finish it later," he says as he blows some air inbetween her legs before jumping off the bed.
>>119001New bread, in case you didn't know.
>>119000 → Henlo, can I have an update?
