Iron got his ass beat and has pissed off a whole criminal syndicate, Amber is doing some shady shit at the police station, Silver is making friends, and Spark is enjoying Whinnysotan hospitality.
>>145964"Iron? Do you think you can be... my partner? In all of my business ventures? Debt collecting, money lending, leg breaking, potion making... All those things?"
>>145962"Well of course. I can invite them too."
>>145963"Well yes. Report crime and suspicious activity when you see it."
>>145965"I may take a while to properly settle," Iron softly replied, his voice becoming more determined as he briefly ignored the stimulation down below "but we have come so far together for me to say no, Cauldron."
He soon put on a confident smile her way, staring with burning passion. "Count on me," he succinctly summarized.
>>145965"Ehhhhh...Jubilosa may be interested, and Mala might agree to go, but Khoi..."
>>145966"Somehow... I suspect you know." She says
>>145968"What about her?" He asks
>>145967"I can count on you?" She says
"To be there? To rely upon? To come back after your little ventures?"
>>145969"Yes," Iron's final reply bravely exited through his confident lips, staring intently at Cauldron with utmost dedication. "I will give you my all."
>>145969"She is rather staunch traditionalist, and was medic during civil war in her country. I get feeling she would not like meeting very much."
>>145970"Iron... I want to be like this forever with you, but... if you'll count on me to return... I think I'll be leaving for ten or twenty minutes, or a half hour or so." She says to him
>>145971"You've got a decent little list right there, don't you, country girl?"
>>145972He twists his lips
"Well why in Tartarus not?"
>>145973"I suppose so...wait, what do you mean?" she asks with genuine confusion.
>>145973"It is alright," Iron smoothly replied before boldly stealing a kiss from Cauldron's lips, with tongue and all, for about five seconds before disentangling himself from her and standing up, exposing his weapon to the air once again and allowing her to slip away with ease. "I will have the feeling of your lips to keep me happy while you are away."
>>145974"At least not at current moment. You have no idea just how traditionalist she is, and it may take some time and patience to get her to open up about other ideas. She still holds onto many beliefs her parents, religion, and culture taught her about things such as sex."
>>145976"Ah!" Iron plants the kiss, and Cauldron has a slightly disgusted expression, and then a playful one, as she smiles and looks down.
She gets up, off of the bed, looks back, and then takes a bag off her dresser, fully opening the door after the scurrying of hooves, and leaves the room
>>145975"Don't you know right and wrong?" She asks
>>145977"I see... well, maybe there's something that can be done with her" He says
"Uh, how bad is it?"
>>145978"She knew nothing of sex until very recently. At most she was told that entire purpose was for procreation, and that only other acceptable reason for it is for relieving of husband's urges."
>>145978Realizing his wet mouth, Iron couldn't help but chuckle softly as a sheepish smile soon formed, waving her goodbye in the meantime. "Sorry!" he called out in a mix of slight amusement and somewhat extreme embarrassment, relieved to see her playful smile soon after her disgusted one. "I will wait for you here until you return."
>>145981She smiles back to him, "I'll be back," and turns and leaves the room. Her tail is raised, and Iron gets a respectable view before she forces it down as she turns the hallway.
Iron is left alone in the room soon enough.
>>145979She nods
"Do you think it won't?"
>>145980"Heh" He shakes his head at the last portion
"Yeah, it's like that many places."
The short, young mare rubs a fetlock with a hoof. "Well, I don't know. A lot of things have surprised me after I came here. It's hard to trust your heart here, and it seems like a lot of po—creatures—don't do that."
>>145982Predictably, Iron ogled as much as she allowed him before finally letting her leave and sitting down on the bed. His weapon twitched longingly not too long after, eager for a far more stimulating experience that he wasn't able to go for, causing him to grunt softly in need.
>>145983"If you yourself can't tell right from wrong, then why are you surprised this city makes you feel unsafe?"
>>145984The front door closes, and the apartment returns to relative silence
>>145982"Well, it is certainly something...it was little bit like that in Severyana, but some colts I grew up with did not agree with what old conservative stallions said. It was slowly growing idea. Maybe it is part of why Stalliongrad came to be."
>>145985She looks quite offended at this.
"I never said I couldn't tell right from wrong! I was raised right according to the principles of Harmony. Seems to me though that a lot of ponies weren't, so they don't live rightly very well."
>>145985Iron breathed out as he fell back first towards the bed with a satisfied smile as his rifle flopped on top of him to face the ceiling. "I-I cannot believe I did it," he breathed out in absolute wonder, just thinking about everything they've done together for the last week. "I figured it would have taken longer than this. More gifts to give, more help to provide. All without those lovely lips touching mine."
His heart beat grew in rate just thinking about that final plunge, lightly fantasizing how their first time would be with her in the middle of a Zebrican rainforest as his rifle twitched in anticipation.
>>145987"So why don't you know crime when you see it?"
>>145988"Feels like ages to me"
A familiar white head, with long, straight desire-red mane and a subtly pinkish white horn leans through the door way of the bedroom
>>145986"Oh well yes, certainly. Angel's application of the history of the family that we know from new hippological research to his studies on the development of talents helped form a part of the movement."
>>145989Iron's ears perked up before quickly lifting his head upwards to properly face the white and red mare he knew... somewhat. "Hey Sands," he called out, still on the bed with an overall happy mood and a painfully tough and unholstered weapon "I hope we did not disturb you."
>>145989Silver whispers to the colt.
"Did they have much to say about homosexual proclivities?"
>>145990She moves into the room, her hooves barely making a "clop" on the wooden floors, and her gait almost like that of a stalking cat.
"I've slept through worse," She answers
>>145991"No. It isn't. And yet all the same I think you know."
>>145992He pauses for a moment, his eyes widened
"Anthropologically? Very little. But uh, that it shouldn't be criminalized."
>>145993Iron follows her stalking about curiously as he smiles with joy. "Maybe with some more effort," he half-jokingly offered "all three of us could sleep on this bed."
>>145995She looks at the bed, and Iron's more naked than normal body, and seems unimpressed. She tilts her head
"Does she agree with that?"
>>145994"Well, I am just curious. I must admit, early was not my first type of encounter, like that."
>>145993Amber is getting annoyed to herself.
Why can't she give me a straight answer?"I can tell the difference. I should, anyway. Please don't blame me for feeling unsafe in this city when there's so much crime about."
>>145998"Then don't blame us for doing the best we can under hard circumstances." She answers
>>145997"Early? What?"
>>145996Iron chuckled softly at her reply before shaking his head in the negative. "I am not
that bold," he casually disregarded before lifting himself up a bit "but I am sure after some time we can do so with an even better bed."
He soon started to sit up with a determined grin. "All we need to do is establish your bond with Cauldron's," he offered optimistically "and help her out in her venture like I promised."
>>146000"Her venture?" She says almost skeptically
"Is this that mass potion making thing?"
>>146001"Yes," Iron confirmed with a nod. "Did I not tell you back when we sent that letter towards... that somepony you did not specify?"
He paused a bit, trying to see if he could remember who was it meant for.
>>146002She blinks
"Yes. And that's what you need the waterways open for? What you need to fight griffins for? And what exactly do you think all of this will accomplish? What it will get you?"
>>146003"
Sigh. Why don't you go ask
them? Leave me alone here."
>>146004"Ensure a trade route of items Cauldron needs to jumpstart her venture comes to us," Iron succinctly replied with another nod. "At least, that is what I gathered from the mademare."
>>146006"If she's a mademare then she must surely have some other racket going, or at least one. What do you need the new venture for? More money?"
>>146005"Just go already" The mare says
>>146007"It allows Cauldron to live a better life," Iron replied without hesitation "which will no doubt incur more favors when she is well established."
After a small pause, he couldn't help but grin softly. "The extra money is also nice," the native followed up with a coy grin.
>>146009“Money
is nice.” But she turns her head.
“So is this whole thing based on your devotion to this mare?”
>>146008“We did! They insisted it was their case. Almost forced their way in”
>>146010"She
is being kind enough to let me get my bearings for a week now," Iron pointed out with a nod "so I was not planning on leaving such a diligent, strong diamond in the rough in this predicament if I can help it."
>>146012“Did you
intend to take a knife in doing this for her?” She asks
>>146013"I was born to battle," Iron plainly stated. "From birth to now, all I ever did was fight with my hooves. It is what I excel at."
He proceeded to sit up properly. "That is also how I stumbled into you, Sands," he followed with great trepidation "and if I need to take even more stabs to make you both live at your best, that is what I will pay."
>>146014She comes in closer to him
“I can respect that. You have a role you were born to play, and you do it.”
She looks down at Iron’s presumably at least partly visible frustration.
“I suppose you didn’t get as far with her as you had hoped?”
>>146015Iron looked down at his loaded weapon, itching to fire in between his four legs before letting out a small sigh. "Knowing the work ahead of her," he soon explained "I cannot satiate myself like I hoped I would without considerable setbacks."
He soon tried to give Sands a little peck on her cheek. "However," he followed up, regardless that his sly move worked "you may not suffer the same predicament."
>>146016“I’m, well, I’m a little more able to take it.” She says, smiling
>>146017"Indeed," Iron replied as a growing smile appeared on his face. "You do know how to please me like nopony else."
He soon scooted a bit closer so as to reduce the distance between her snout and his as he half-lidded his eyes. "The question is," he playfully suggested, "how are you going to do it this time."
>>146018She moves in closer to Iron, and immediately closes the distance, kissing Iron on the lips. Iron feels his penis being grabbed, and then rubbed as Sand’s horn and eyes both seem to glow.
>>146019Iron groaned into the kiss, now pressing himself needily yet gently at Sands' snout as he tried to stick his tongue in to sharpen up his making out skills some more.
His poor weapon is in dire need of some shooting at the practice range, twitching eagerly and leaking out a bit of lubricant out of the barrel at the mere touch alone.
>>146020She opens her mouth slightly, and moves her tongue to meet his, and to let him roll on hers. Iron can feel the movement of a magic grip and down his shaft, steady and firm.
>>146021Iron shivered lightly at the magical grip sliding up and down his weapon, grunting in a primal fashion as he continued to dance with Sands' tongue, experimenting on different ways to elicit pleasure for his mare.
His rifle, meanwhile, continued to twitch against the hold, leaking out an impressive stream of lubricant along his rock solid length for the unicorn to witness.
>>146022She tries to match his tongue with his, as if in a dance. After some seconds, she looks down and pulls away from the kiss. She does not stop stroking him.
What do you want to do with
that?” She asks, looking down
>>146023Iron couldn't help but grin knowingly amidst the very much needed stimulation as his breathing became ever more heavy. "I want release," he replied before a soft grunt escaped his lips, glancing down at his continuously stroked weapon.
>>146024“Any preference when and where?” She asks him slyly
>>146025Despite how worked up Iron was, he could not help but keep his grin, staring back at the playful Sands as sporadic grunts and groans continued to leave his mouth. "Surprise me," he offered before closing his eyes as an erratic shiver of pleasure shook his core and his weapon actively shot out a small shot of lubricant from its barrel.
>>146026She moves her head down and takes a look at Iron’s erect mass, still in her grip. Then she moves in, and licks her tongue up the whole length of his shaft. And then she gently opens her mouth, and placed as much as she can fit inside of it, with everything else remaining in her magic grip.
>>146027At first, Iron was wondering was Sands was trying to do when she was approaching his leaking weapon, only for him to gasp out in surprise at the deliberate lick from base to shaft and promptly be replaced with a low growl when his rifle was engulfed at least half-way from his base.
His legs were actively twitching, his breathing started to become a bit erratic and a few instinctual yet soft thrusts tried to go deeper to no avail: He was close, there was no doubt about it. "Mmf~" he let out as he reached her peak, tightly closing his eyes yet holding steady for the cleanup that was about to happen.
>>146028https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UWhcxs6aTr4She moves her tongue around especially the tip, and presses her cheeks around his shaft with a sucking action, then bobbing up ad down. Yet it's her magic grip around the base of his shaft that provides perhaps the most stimulation, ramping up in speed and grip both, up and down.
>>146029Sands got a big hint of the taste of Iron's weapon with her tongue swirling while Iron held on for dear life for just a
little bit longer, wanting to give her his all as well.
Yet, with such sucking power, dexterous magic and being teased for who knows how long, the stallion tried his best to warn him verbally of the impending shooting inside her, but all he could manage is a guttural growl before round after round rapidly fired inside Sands' moisty mouth cavern.
His eyes immediately shut themselves as his head turned to face the ceiling as the torrent of white lead flowed vigorously where Sands allowed to. Meanwhile, he started to shake from the stimulation, leaning back and barely catching himself with his toned forelegs.
>>146030Sand's eyes grow wide, her cheeks open a bit, and she gags slightly. Yet after a pause of a few seconds, Iron can feel the pumping action of her magic all the same for many seconds after Iron's release.
>>146031Although the volume of shots were the same, as Sands continued to pump him dry, Iron's rapid fire speed soon turned into collected, controllable bullets, giving her some breathing room in order to continue collecting all that sweet yet spicy lead.
His body, meanwhile, had lost the shivers and was instead replaced with sagged legs and him gently laying his back against the comfortable mattress with a content sigh.
>>145999"You know, earlier today, when we were drinking and I decided to..."
>>146036“But, you said, ‘wasn’t the first’.”
>>146037"Well, few days ago I was drinking with friend of mine and his marefriend at bar, we got little drunk, and..."
He looks from side to side, then whispers the final part.
"...I may have tried to suck on his ear like it was lollipop in backseat of cab."
>>146038He looks at Silver, almost in disbelief for one, two, three seconds. Then,
“Bahahaha!” He busts out laughing, and slumps back in his seat
>>146039The large, fluffy stallion in the seat next to Clip blushes profusely, while scrunching his snout up considerably.
>>146040He tilts his head
"How'd it taste?"
Then he fails to hold back a smile
"Taste like sweet dandelions?"
Then he fails to hold back a laugh with a "ha ha ha"
>>146041The silver pony lets out a low, forlorn groan at his embarassment.
>>146042Paper Clipping reaches out a hoof to sort of pat Silver
“Oh, you’re doing alright, old warhorse.”
>>146043He groans a little more, but the pat seems to calm him a little.
"So, that was pretty bad, yes?"
>>146044“You can always do worse.” He says
After sometime, the taxi arrives back at the beach house
>>146045Silver pays the driver, and gets out of the cab.
"I suppose so. Still, I wonder if there is anything behind that incident and earlier today."
>>146047“You’ll have time to find out.” He says. He slides out of the cab through Silver’s door.
>>146048Silver's widen slightly at the suggestion...but he doesn't object.
"I suppose I do."
>>146049The two ponies, presumably, enter the house
>>146050That they do. Silver smiles at Clip.
"If you will just head into living room and sit down, I will prepare potion for you."
>>146051Silver can see through the large glass windows and doors that Jubilosa is on the wooden front porch, looking out and down over the bay. The living room and dining area are unoccupied.
>>146052Silver goes into the kitchen to prepare Clip's potion, accoring to the instructions given to him by the zebra.
>>146053A dram or so of the potion, cut with water. Did what it’s worth, the potion is very thick, and almost glows, looking sort of like a fluorescent blue-green sludge.
>>146054"Huh, looks almost like changeling slime. Weird."
He brings the prepared dram to Clip once it's finished.
>>146055The substance does not dissolve when the water is poured, but shaking the glass, or especially stirring the mixture causes it to dissolve into an opaque blue-greenish liquid. Paper clipping takes the glass and inspects it.
“Huh. Looks a little thick.”
Then, he puts it up to his mouth and scrunches at the first sip.
“Bit strong.” Then he takes the whole glass and attempts to chug it, coughing repeatedly, stopping, and then continuing to drink it.
“Ugh, fuck me that’s strong.” He says, and coughs again
>>146056Silver pats his back.
"Just try to keep it all down, it is supposed to heal you."
>>146057He coughs again, snd places a hoof on his bandaged chest,
“Ugh, it’s doing something, alright.”
>>146058He sits down next to him.
"Feel like it is healing you?"
>>146059“Well I’m feeling it do something alright. Damn, it’s like it’s putting pressure from inside my chest.”
>>146060"Sounds little bit like healing potion to me. It is good!"
>>146061"I hope so, certainly. You can't imagine how painful it was when I came to late that morning a few days ago. It's a little better after what they did later that day but it still hurts to move in some ways."
>>146062"You came to, with your chest still torn open?"
>>146063“Well, it was sewn up, but it’s not exactly east to piece together bone that been cut like that.”
>>146064"It is still easy to imagine how painful that was."
>>146066>>146065"You think so, heheh. Haven't been called that much."
>>146067Silver nods.
"Definitely! I am not sure I would have dealt with that kind of pain as well as you."
