Welcome back to the newest thread of Occupied Equestria

In Northern Equestria on the Changeling side, Spark has given refuge to a mare claiming to be stalked by a Changeling drone.

In the southeast, in Baltimare, Amber tries to slip past police in her infiltration of the Police Headquarters. Iron prepares for his next fight against griffin gangsters. Silver enjoys downtime, and Midnight checks out a local church.

She has an air of moral "knowing," but the smugness shared by herself and Lens concerned talking about the school

"I know. My own June was even called to the draft, though he got a deferment. We had to shelter in place during the shelling."

The cream unicorn mare is silent at this, but Mars Loaf says:
"Oh yes, I know. We had to go hide in the basement during the shelling. We could feel the vibrations in the room as we were hundled together. Soldiers came in and they... they searched each one of us, asking if we had any weapons."

June, having migrated across the room and with an entire wine bottle in his magical glow, slowly walks up, placing the bottle down on the floor beside him, and removing a lit cigarette from his mouth. He speaks to Dark Star:

"What do you know about the misery? I was there on the barricades when they started blasting away. Going down the roads street by street, and house to house. I saw creatures killed."
At this, Mars loaf places hooves around him, holding him in a hug. Using his magic to hold both the cigarette and now pick up the wine bottle, he takes a swig directly out of the bottle.

+1 point for the Blade Runner reference
A bluff check would be helpful

June was certainly not expecting this response, and is taken back for a moment. Star Cut and the stallion who let Dark Star in, formerly having their own conversation, seem to listen in.

“When did this happen?”

Dark Star is a ranger (although he plays more like a rogue), and so does not have Bluff as a class skill. He has, I think, a fairly high charisma bonus of either +2 or +3

Dark Star’s lie isn’t the most persuasive, but June made a fatal slip when he tried to match Solar Night.

Lens:
“I have t heard that before”

Star Cut:
“Why would you? They try to suppress snd hide their crimes. You know these things happen.”

Mars Loaf, Lunar Nadir, and the unnamed mare are all deeply disturbed by Dark Star’s report

There is silence for a moment, but the appeal to partying breaks through to Star Cut, the other stallion, and the other mare. Star cut, then the short cut stallion, raise their beers with a “woo!” and walk away. Lens follows after a delay. June lingers, looking at Dark Star in silence.

Just play a Rogue/Scout Swift Ambusher build, or an Urban Ranger/Scout Swift Hunter Build. There are plenty more Ranger variants and Ranger combinations that accomodate what you're trying to play.
The Urban Tracking feat is based on Gather Information, rather than Survival, so an Urban Ranger can be charisma-based, especially when combined with Dynamic Priest for spellcasting. The Rival Organization ACF is also better in urban settings if you want to maximize Favored Enemy. Mystic Ranger is also pretty good if you want to use spells more in combat and tracking, fitting well with the variant Spell list the Urban Ranger gives.
Dips into Marshal or Factotum may also be better accommodating to your build, although it really depends on your stat distribution.
You can always gain Bluff through dips or feats. If you're taking an Anarchic feat for Bluff and want to be charisma-based, consider Iajutsu Focus and Use Magic Device.

Also, did you find your phone yet?

“Yeah! Sure. Another beer.”

June and the other stallions move off, although only the yellow mare follows them, at least so far. Lens and the unnamed mare move together nearer a bar-top county by the kitchen. Mars Loaf moves over around Solar Night, and hugs Nadir. She closes her eyes, smiles, and raises a wing to sort of wing-hug Mars. Mars then moves off with the other three mares, leaving Dark Star and Nadir to themselves in this portion of the living room.

She is hugged, presumably by Solar Noght wrapping his hooves around her. She moves her wings back to her body as he does so. Her wings are a soft velvet, but bony at places, and her fur is short and course.

So far, the ponies competing are, well, the stallions. Star Cut isn’t especially good, but the short cut stallion is decent. June seems to be winning, being the best of the small lot. The yellow mare is the fourth contender, laughing as she tries with the stallions egging her on. But she isn’t particularly good.

The room used for the dart playing seems to be a bedroom, though it isn’t being used as one. There is a mattress on the floor, one dresser, and a couple chairs.

The ponies look back to Solar Night. It’s Star Cut (of all ponies) who says to him “come on, want to join?” June looks at Dark Star, and moves back.

June:

Dark Star’s dart goes wide, and hits the wall next to the dart board, leaving a little hole, and then falling down. June and the yellow mare laugh.

When he recovers, June smiles, and says
“Don’t feel too bad. Let me show you how it’s done.”
He picks up a dart in an aura of green magic, placed it before his right eye, aims, closing his left eye, and throws it

The short cut stallion, thus far the second favorite, misses his mark considerably, hitting the wall in a way that causes the yellow mare to flinch. Star Cut and the yellow mare, meanwhile, land hits near the center that almost equal June’s performance. Almost.

Solar Night’s turn.
