>>126726Her ears go up
"Wow... That's, that's pretty significant work. Though I saw some of what happened with the cultists and their leader... I can believe it. Are they Blackhooves deputies as well?"
>>126727I Know Right
>>126728"Iron isnt. I Think Silver Got Deputized."
>>126727https://youtu.be/ccKsjIUWVuI?t=19>>126729"Hmmm"
She swallows, cracks open another peanut, eating the nuts, then adds in the hulls
"Why are you keeping
us, though?"
>>126730>archer clipKek thats a great show. i was thinking about archer and clint eastwood when i came up with him
"Why? its better for you to be held by me than to be detained i suppose."
>>126731"Detained?!"
The hulls fall out of her mouth as she grits her teeth
"I'm not some petty commoner! They should welcome me, if anything"
>>126732"I may have misspoke. it wouldn't be detention as much as a questioning."
>>126733"Well, I am not a radical, criminal, or any kind of cultist, and the only reason I looked ill was because of that damned 'Changeling'"
She is a little angry looking, sitting in her chair. She is completely naked, although an area of shorter fur on her neck makes it clear she would almost always wear Jewelry
>>126737Brb i gotta eat some roast beef
>>126737"aww. i didnt mean to make you angry."
He hugs her
>>126739Dark Star leans into the large mare, and hugs her. She flinches a little from surprise, but otherwise lets the stallion hug her
"It's just" She seems to sniffle
"This whole experience has been humiliating. It was so before in Karkardannistan, but it was so much worse here"
There is definitely a sniffle at the end of this
>>126740"Its Okay. It will get better,meadows. and any time you need to talk,you can talk to me."
>>126741She sighs, and then she hugs him with long, thin and bony legs
"It's alright. I am out of there now. Things are looking up"
>>126742"Thats the way you should look at it."
he smiles at her
>>126743She giggles, and is smiling again
"Yes. I am free, I am away from any place where they will think of me as a 'collaborator'" She bares her teeth and shudders
"And I have 500 bits, and" She holds up the key in silver aura "this" She places it down
"I just wish I had my necklace though"
>>126745"Just a necklace my father gave me shortly after I was married"
She looks down, off to the side
"They took it when they enslaved me. I suppose I've lost many things..."
>>126746"What does it look like? Maybe we saw it."
>>126747"It's a large gold necklace. In the center, there is a gold ornament with what looks kind of like a horse standing over an eagle with outstretched wings. It'll look sort of like a hippogriff. There are inset rubies on each side."
>>126752"I Think i've seen it before."
>>126753She sits up, closer to him, with wide open eyes
"You have?!?"
>>126754"Uh yes i have. i may have given it to my friend just before the raid."
>>126756"I Didn't know it belonged to you. I Thought it belonged to Maakie or somepony else that worked with him."
>>126757She seems a little irritated
"Well where do you think they got it from? They are bandits, as bad as gnolls. And some of them are gnolls!"
>>126758"Im sorry. i'll get it back for you,meadows."
He Frowns
>>126759She pauses, with a light exhale through her nostrils
"It's alright. I suppose I shouldn't be angry. It's just means a lot to me. But... if you could get it back"
She holds up a foreleg with her knee and thus her hoof, bending down
"Please?"
>>126760He Stands up and walks over to Blue's table.
>>126761Blue Skies is sitting directly across from Johann. They are talking about something, or arguing, perhaps. Khoi is on the very edge of the table away from the two, not really a part of the conversation
>>126763Khoi turns around and looks to him. She waves, with a split forehoof. Johann is surprised, and turns his bird neck up to him, then moves his fedora up to have a more firm view. Blue Skies is the last to notice, looking up shortly after Johann does.
>>126764"What are Y'all talking about?"
>>126765Blue Skies, who looks like a dark brown griffin, points a claw at Johann
"HE is denying the genocide in Hellquill!"
He holds up his claws in an almost "don't shoot" fashion, waving them.
"I never said no ponies were killed, I am just saying there was no deliberate mass destruction of their culture. Or if there was, the numbers are greatly exaggerated. Or if there were mass killings, then it was a rational response to rebellion and potential fifth columnists"
Blue Skies looks like she is about to get back into it arguing with him
>>126766"Oh i see. Before you get back to it,i need to talk to you about something,Blue."
I think I might want to scratch the response in
>>126766, and replace it with something not intended as a joke
>>126767"Huh? About what?"
>>126766>who looks like a dark brown griffinDunno how she accomplished that.
I've had a theory that she is secretly a changeling who is so good and disciplined at what she does that she's undetectable even when she's taking love. She had mentioned "passive feeding" by changelings before and her tussle with a succubus suggests that the latter may have assumed her identity. Probably best to ignore this as the plot twist is too good to spoil. >>126768?and replace it with something not intended as a joke
>>126768"Its About that thing i gave you,before the raid."
>>126772"Huh? What do you mean? Should we go off to the side?"
>>126774She turns to Johann
"Excuse me"
Then she makes a batting motion with her claw towards Khoi, whom she makes stand up and let her out. She walks out, and then further away towards the corner
"Alright. What is it?"
>>126775"So...You know that necklace i gave you... it belongs to one of the ponies we rescued."
>>126776“In the building?” She digs through the saddle bag, taking a moment before pulling out a gold chain necklace
“This one?”
>>126778“Do I have to give it up?”
>>126779"I Uh,I Think so yes. I'll Buy You a Better one than this."
He Smiles at her
>>126780She still pouts at him
“You better”
She hands over the necklace
>>126781He gives her a hug
"I think i have another necklace."
he checks his bag and pulls out the necklace he bought from undertoe
>>126782Griff is hugged
She holds it up
"A little smaller, thinner... Nice dolphin though"
>>126783"I'll buy you another one along with this dolphin one."
>>126784She smiles at him
"If you say so. Alright then"
>>126785Dark Star Hugs blue tighter,then kisses her.
>>126786She looks at him with lidded eyes
"hehehe"
She tries to kiss back. She's still in griffin form, thus marking the first time ever that Dark Star has kissed a griffin. The beak feels a little weird, being not so soft. The feathers aren't too bad to hug though
>>126787"Kissing a griffion feels strange."
He continues to do so
>>126788She tries to kiss him back
"Been a while since I kissed a zebra" she says, wrapping a claw around him
>>126792He strokes her wings as they kiss
As he reaches down with the frog of his hoof and rubs her teats
>>126793"Woah!" Her belly moves back
"Those are sensitive"
She kisses with a small tongue
>>126794He Grins
"that's Good to know. "
He does the same with his other hoof
>>126795"Hehehe"
She giggles involuntarily at the tickling as the teats become more firm
>>126797"Some
griff"
Her neck is feathery. She pecks him back
I'm pretty sure the view of the audience in the bar at daytime is that Dark Star took a griffon from a table to a corner, they exchanged necklaces, they started making out and he groped her belly. Both DS and BS must have really high secret luck values to not get kicked out of establishments for PDAs.
>>126806D'aww
You want your character to wake up now?
I might not make it tonight, but I will be free Saturday and possibly tomorrow.
>>126813I'll be free all day tomorrow if you want to see about continuing the northern story.
Continuing from the other thread.....
Midnight nods
"Thank you! Come on Meadows."
She holds the door open for the unicorn.
>>126846She lowers her horn as she exits. It’s not strictly necessary, but it certainly seems so. The streets are almost empty, and lights shine illuminate what the full moon does not. It’s an uneventful walk to what must be the diner. Midnight can see empty seats with purple seats. There are few creatures inside, though among them is one of those dreaded bats.
No pony greats then, though they find a seat easily enough
>>126847Midnight lowers her voice
"It is not the fanciest place, but I hope you are fine with it."
>>126848She looks around, and blinks
“Is... this where the common ponies eat? I guess it is... clean. Yes, it is clean. And not too rowdy. I suppose it is open at this time... Very well, let us go in”
She enters and sits down in in a booth across from a Midnight.
There are menus on the table, and no server as of yet. She looks around, inspecting the scene in the restaurant, a bit confused
>>126849Midnight scans the menu to get a feel for the place and what they serve.
>>126850Seems to have hayburgers, pancakes, oatmeal, waffles and straight grains and alfalfa. They are a few items that seem tuned to diamond dogs, like kibble, but no meat products.
>>126851Figures
"what are you thinking about having?"
>>126852Her horn glows silver, and the menu comes up in magic aura of the same shining grey. She tries to open it, then turn is around, then turns it upside down. She sayings her eyes as the they move, first right to left, then left to right
“I am... I cannot read in your language”
She blinks at her
>>126853"Oh! Sorry, I did not know... Well, would you like me to tell you what they have?"
>>126854She smiles to her, again angling her muzzle down
“Yes. That would be lovely”
>>126855"Okay."
Midnight begins to list off the menu items, giving descriptions if Meadows seems confused by anything she says.
"I'm thinking about the pancakes myself."
>>126856At first, she looks at the menu as Midnight reads off, trying to read along herself. After a while she gives up. “Pan-cakes? What are those? May I try them? And some oats too? Perhaps some hay?”
>>126857"Pancakes are just a kind of fluffy bread thing. So I will get some pancakes, oats, and hay for us to share."
Midnight smiles
>>126858She smiles back.
“That would be... well”
A large stallion, an overweight grey earth pony, cones to take the order
>>126859Midnight orders two orders of pancakes, oats, and hay.
Meadows isn't the only hungry one.
>>126860“Comin’ up” he says with a gruff voice and a clear accent that places him among the locals of Baltimare
While waiting, Meadows starts to speak to Midnight
“So, you are with them? The fighting group? But you are a female, and young, too”
