>>148285"Alright. Now you have to tell us what it is in order to find it again."
>>148286"It was a book. I don't think I'm getting that back. Just... I need to look for something else."
She walks past Spark, and leaves the bedroom
>>148286"I see..." She says, with little emotion
>>148289"Eh.... She takes the table that lays on its side next to the sofa, stands it up, and then with her hooves pushes it several feet along the bedroom. She stands up on it, presses her hooves up on a tile, and tries to reach into some cavity in the ceiling
[1d20 = 20]>>148290"Yes?"
>>148291>>148289"There we go"
She pulls out an item which appears to be a locket, and gets down off the table
>>148293Jubilosa is silent, but vulnerable to hugging
>>148294Thus, the griffon is hugged.
>>148291>>148292"You sure are being secretive for a locket."
>>148296"It's uh, it's a family heirloom. From my mother. heh." She has a wide, toothy smile
"That's all, besides some clothes, and some money, maybe."
>>148295Indeed.
Griffin is hugged >>148294Alright so i don't have alot of battery power rn, but i want to get back into playing,even if for a little while.
>>148298Yay!
The last thing Dark Star did was to learn his mistake in letting an agent of S.M.I.L.E. slip away. But surely there is much he can do
>>148297With his beautiful griffon in his embrace, Silver can slowly drift off to sleep.
>>148297“Alright. But if there is anything that we should know, you ought to tell us so we won’t have to find it out he hard way.”
>>148300And so it is. Jubilosa is certainly ready to go to sleep, and she seems reassured by Silver's touch.
>>148301"Let's avoid the Changelings, and the one drone especially. Okay?"
A rug is curled up by the wall, while a chair has been pulled away from the wall.
>>148299Dark Star Shakes off what ever that has been effecting him,Blinking and shaking his head a few times.
I'm Gonna Be Real with you, i forgot what S.M.I.L.E Was. i Forgot what he was doing as well >>148303Dark Star finds himself in the Blackhooves Headquarters, in the lobby area by the main desk
Basically, he went to Seabreeze to talk about the mission at Hoebuck. Seabreeze told him that they believe that Undertoe was an officer of the Equestrian Special Monster Interdiction and Law Enforcement branch >>148304Dark Star Feeling Strange walks over to a water fountain.
Have i already talked to sea breeze? >>148302“I don’t plan on seeing them again. So if you have everything, we can start getting ready to head out of town.”
>>148305Yes. Or at least, he has sat down to talk with him at least onceDark Star has to go a bit down the right hallway to find a water fountain, but at least one exists.
>>148306"Sure."
She goes back into the room, and comes out with a bag
>>148307Is there one close to his minotaur fren?He Heads down the hallway and drink a Lot of Water at the fountain.
I Have no idea what to do. what was i going to do? Did i tell you what my next plan was? >>148302Silver holds her tight, nuzzling into the soft feathers in her neck, making little soft, caring nickers and burs like a feral horse, as he drifts off to sleep with his feathery cuddle buddy.
>>148309The Minotaur tends to be by the front entrance insideAt least the water is free
Dark Star does not have a plan yet, but there are things he can doUh... what sorts of things do you want to do?>>148310D'awww. It is so
>>148311What was His Fren's name?He walks over to The Aforementioned Minotaur fren.
Are there any Political events occurring? >>148312Filipe the Minotaur sees Dark Star as he approaches
I mean, there's sort of an ongoing low-grade civil war. Aside from that, there is distrust between the Blackhooves and the SDP, and the Blackhooves and the Changeling Empire, that could heat up >>148313"Hey,Good To See you. How you doing tonight?"
Low Grade civil war? >>148314The Minotaur speaks to Dark Star:
"Hello Dark Star. It's nice and warm inside, even if it can be boring."
Insurgency against the Blackhooves, mostly from ELF and Leftist groups >>148315"I Hear that. How's everything in your life going?"
He gives him a friendly smile
Ah ok. Are there any rallies going on? >>148316"Still far away from home and living alone. But I have a little apartment now and wine, so that's better than it is for many."
Very possibly, but if so, they are for the left or other opposition >>148317"Well I Don't Know how it is to be as far away from home as you are,But im here to Lend a hoof if you need any help,Or Need somepony to listen to you."
Sounds Good Probably Gonna head to one of those. >>148318"Thank you. You're from the area?"
Dark Star can definitely do some resistance hunting on his own >>148319"Yep Born and raised right here in baltimare. It hasnt always been easy but... You gotta Keep your head up and keep going,you know?"
Nice. Socdems,Gommies Anarchists? >>148320"Yeah, I definitely understood that from when I was young. My father wasn't always nice, especially when the whole farm fell on hard times in the drought of '97... But I've followed opportunity as it's come."
Yes. Yes Indeed >>148321"You were a farmer as well then? I Can Relate to that. I Was Born on one and helped my family till the land.My dad was a stern but fair pony."
Dark Stars Face Turns a little sour
"I Can relate to The Hard times as well, The Farm is no longer in my Family's Possession."
>>148322"I'm not even sure about mine. Our farm was among those in the area that converted to grape farming some generations ago when the market with the continent became popular. What made us special was that we didn't sell, but kept our land. It didn't get bought out by the larger land owners. We had a nice little profit, selling the grapes to others who would make wine. And then the market fell. That would have been survivable, but the drought... I had six siblings in total. Seven children who needed food, and money for schooling. I dropped out of school... and we couldn't live off grapes. My father... he snapped, I think. Some time that year. From the stress. I stayed on a few more years, but I left. The grapes recovered, but my father didn't."
>>148323Dark Star Gives him a knowing look And pats him on the back
"Our Farm was Seized by the Social Democrats about, 10 years ago now,maybe a little longer...i've lost track of time over the years. They then Hoofed it over To some....Striped individuals."
He Frowns
"And on top of that...I'm the Last remaining Member of my family."
>>148324Felipe has a look of concern at the loss of Dark Star's farm, but his ears go down at hearing of the fall of the family
"You're the last of your family?"
>>148325Dark Star Looks at the Ground
"Yea,The Ponies in my line Don't Generally get to see old age... at least not for the last 2 anyway. Mom was murdered by a Griffon She Died Saving me from the Psychopathic monster.Before they took the farm. and my Brother....I hold out hope he's still out there somewhere....But it's unlikely.From what i have heard he died in a Heroic Last stand saving his komeraden From Seeing their last day. He's a Hero and ...I"
His ears fall flat
I Forgot how His dad died also my pc is about to die. >>148326Felipe reaches out, and places his hand (it's an awkward appendage indeed) on Dark Star's shoulder
"It sounds like they died in glory, like the heroes of the old epics. Do not feel too bad for them, as most do not get the privilege to die for who they love."
Come back when you can >>148327"Thank you my friend. But I Feel like it should have been me.. My Brother was Always the better of the 2 of us."
5% >>148328"All of his goodness came out at once. Perhaps it will take you a little longer, but don't stop trying. You will get there."
Also there's Dark Star's sister >>148329Dark Star Smiles at him
"You are a Good Friend Felipe. Maybe you're right."
Right But i didnt think he was aware of her yet.Dark Star hoofs him some of that whiskey from his pack
"Here. i always lean on the old liquid Pain reliever in difficult times."
>>148330He would know that she was dying though, so add her to the list of dead relativesFelipe looks down at the bottle
"And what is this?" he asks, with playful inquisitiveness
>>148331Ok well assume he mentioned his sister3%"A Gift"
He smiles
"It's some very Good stuff. i got it during our last mission. Its very Strong. I Think you'll like it."
>>148332He opens the top, raises it up, and takes a single swig, wincing a bit
"Ah! Strong, indeed. A bit more bite than wine or brandy. Thank you." He says, smiling to Dark Star
>>148333Checked
"I Have to get on my way,It was nice talking with you. i heard about a rally going on. gonna stop by and see whats going on."
He pats him on the back
>>148334Short fur and thick hide along his back. Felipe lifts up the bottle and says ""Thank you friend. And good luck."
>>148335"No Thanks needed my friend. thank you for your well wishes"
Dark star Walks out the door
"See you soon, we should get drinks later."
He Heads to the SocDem rally
