>>161212She doesn't seem to notice. She looks around at the slowly passing scenery.
>>161213A little bit closer now, perhaps a bit more noticably. The pair are now quite close to each other.
>>161214The kirin doesn't suspect a thing.
>>161215Alright, time to really test the waters. Silver slowly puts a forehoof on one of her hindlegs. It's not close to anything particularly
sensative, but it is still contact.
>>161216She noticesShe turns her head over towards the point of contact, and looks at = it, moving her hindleg away slightly, though not enough to break the contact if his hoof is indeed on her.
>>161217It is indeed on her. He looks down from the hoof making contact, up along the kirin's form to look right in her face, to give her one of his trademark warm smiles. The hoof doesn't move or attempt to do anything that would break her demands, it merely stays there as a point of contact between the two.
>>161218Khoi turns her head, looking up and over with a strangely emotionless expression. And then out of nowhere, she blurts out,
"I'm not having intercourse with you tonight."
>>161219What a thing to say to break the silence between them. Silver gives her a look of mostly confusion, one that remains for a couples seconds before he starts to chuckle.
"Ehehehehehe! I already knew that, Khoi. That is not point of this."
>>161220Her ears go down, and se slightly lowers her head, then pulls her lips back in a toothy smile. She breaks eye contact, and directs her head and eyes forward. Her face becomes redder. She is silent for a some seconds.
Eventually, she says,
"Are all of the trees dead here?"
>>161221Silver remains like that with her for her silence, spirit still high. Considering she hasn't rejected the contact, he considers that she must have at least some feelings for him. He joins her in looking at the trees.
"Not dead, asleep. It is Winter, and to save their strength for these colder temperatures these trees have withdrawn life energy from their leaves into themselves and have shed them. They wait until Spring comes along with warmer temperatures, when they will wake up once again and these trees will bloom with vibrant green leaves, and flowers for some."
>>161222"Oh...." She sits in silence, and then takes a forehoof, and places it over the front of the carriage, looking out.
Khoi moved slightly away and seemed a little uncomfortable at the touch. But neither does she chase his hoof away, as she could have, and all the same is true of Silver's hoof holding in the theater.
She speaks
"It's the cycle of life. We have something like that at home. The trees are most vibrant in the rainy season, and less so in the dry season. Sometimes they will shed leaves..." She pauses again. "But it is summer there now, and it is winter here..."
>>161223Still, for as conservative as she is and as little physical contact as she has likely to have had throughout her life, this is a good omen.
"It is far more pronounced further north. In St. Petershoof, this would be considered mild weather, or perhaps even unseasonably warm. I am not sure how much it even snows, this far south." He tilts his head at Khoi. "It sounds like seasons are different, where you are from.
Does it ever snow in Winter, in Ngua Nam?"
>>161224She turns her head to look at him.
"No. There is no snow. Not outside of the taller mountains."
She pauses
"What- what were the winters like up there?"
>>161225Silver shivers a bit from remembering the winters of his youth.
"Bitterly cold. They say that when Windigoes were banished from this realm long long ago, in Severyana their influence remained strong. Rivers and lakes will freeze over, snow will blanket land, and it is impossible to farm as even our moisture-rich soil will freeze somewhat. You need thick winter coat to go outside in freezing temperature for long period of time. Not only all of that, but up north you will find no trees like this, which fall asleep for Winter. It is too cold for them. Only hardy conifers such as pine and yew can survive. Their needles require far less life energy to maintain than leaves, and they never drop them in Autumn unlike these trees."
>>161226She looks over, closes her mouth, and slowly nods,
"I think it is beautiful, how nature crafts all living things for their climes. And how everything grows and retreats in cycles. Even the leaves of the trees reflect the essence of nature."
>>161227Silver gives her a wide smiles, and nods in agreement.
"Even us. Take me for instance. I am same species and race as any other Equestrian Unicorn, but I was born in Severyana, as was my father and his father before him. My family line has been adapted by nature to survive cold, nay, even thrive in it as best as us ponies can."
To demonstrate, he undoes a couple more buttons for his dress shirt, exposing more of his impressive and floofy winter coat that is keeping him warm, and displaying it proudly for the world (and especially Khoi) to see.
>>161228Khoi jumps up, pulling away until she presses against the wall of the taxi, and raising her right hoof, staring at the floof with wide eyes. She likely has not heard the legend of Alzughab, yet all the same she knows it instinctively. She mutters to herself "Nhiều lông tơ." After a moment, she moves her head closer, examining the floof with curiosity.
>>161230The first thing she notices upon closer inspection is that, for just how rigorous his career is, his floof is in excellent shape. No tangles, no split ends, just a neat, light grey mass of dense winter fur. The second thing she notices is just how neat and clean it is, going so far as to acquire a hint of smell of the coat wash he used before the date.
>>161231She tilts her head, then lowers it, leaning in closer to the protruding floof.
>>161232As she gets closer, she's able to see the individual hairs better among the floof. The smell becomes just a bit stronger, a bit more recognisable as the coat wash they use at home. Continuing the trend of cleanliness, she sees no residue of such coat wash on his fur, implying he's done a good job of rinsing it out. There's also no oily shine indicating that it hasn't been washed properly, and in the cool dampness of the night she can see tiny drops of mist condensing on his coat. As they pass through a small breeze, she sees the indiviual hairs of his floof flow like a wave. It's like looking at the rice fields of her home, if they were much taller like wheat or corn.
>>161233She moves her head back again, and raises her forehoof, as if to protect her face. She turns away, and then looks back from a distance.
>>161234The floof seems to not be acting aggressively. It remains as it was, simply moving in the breeze. Silver chuckles at the display.
"It does not bite, I promise. You can come closer."
>>161235She leans in, and pokes it with her right hoof.
>>161236She does not lose her hoof. Instead, she feels through her cloven kirin hoof just how soft his floof really is, as well as feeling the warmth trapped by his winter coat.
>>161238She takes the frog of her hoof, and presses in.
>>161239The end of her hoof is enveloped by the floof, and is virtually transported to a world of softness and warmth. It is a stark contrast to the chilly outside air.
>>161240Cautiously, very cautiously, she presses deeper.
>>161241The warmth feels good against her sinking hoof. She can see why the Severyanan is comfortable in this weather, as her hoof feels starkly different from the rest of her. It feels good.
Just when she starts to get worried about the depth of his floof, she touches the firm, muscular pony inside.
>>161242When she comes in contact with his hide, she pulls away slightly, and then taps it.
>>161243Firm, muscular, and warm from the heat in his floof. There is only a little body fat, as a significant amount of it is muscle mass. She can feel bumps or imperfections on his hide where he has been scarred. The unicorn feels like he's a mountain of a pony underneath all of that fluff.
>>161244If Khoi seems to be a near mythical creature in her own right, if her culture seems sometimes alien, and her homeland far away and exotic - it must be remembered that Silver, the winter, and this brave new world of Baltimare is foreign to her. The similarities between her and their cultures are far greater than the differences, but the similarity only invites comparisons and highlights differences.
Khoi leans in, then scoots slightly closer, and pulls her lips back in a smile that specifically lets her small fangs hang out. She starts rubbing her hoof within his fur against his hide in a circular motion.
>>161246The floofy unicorn lets out a little happy little horse noise from the lovely massaging motion. He closes his eyes and gives a blissful smile. The motion also releases small amounts of trapped warm air that travels up her foreleg, warming her up slightly.
>>161247She pulls her leg back, startled by the new source of warm air, but then presses forward, and slowly comes closer to the floof.
Silver may contemplate how content he is with this activity eating up his carriage ride.
>>161248Hmm...well, he may. He looks down at his date, curious how comfortable she may be with him and his floof.
"Khoi, would you like to snuggle? We can share in warmth of my fluffy coat."
>>161249Khoi looks up to Silver, and tilts her head.
"I do not know that word."
She uses her magic to pick up the jacket in part
"The coat?"
>>161250Silver smiles at his date.
"Snuggling is really close and intimate hug couples can do. And, before you say something, it is not sexual. We can snuggle together, and you can share in warmth from my fur coat."
He motions to his floof to emphasize what he is talking about.
>>161251“Um…”
She looks down at his coat. Then up at him. Then down at his coat. Then up at him. Then down at his coat….
>>161252Silver gives her a friendly smile. He's just a harmless, floofy, warm stallion, who wants to be close with his marefriend. His fluffy coat
does look very soft and warm, especially in this cold outside weather...
>>161253Khoi scoots closer to Silver
>>161254Silver scoots closer to Khoi.
>>161255She presses her shoulder into his fluff, pulling the jacket aside to make contact.
>>161184She smiles,
"Hehe"
And she presses her snout directly into the end of his, making contact, and rubs her snout against his, touching the fur on either side of his nose in the motion.
>>161256Slowly and gently, Silver places one forehoof on her hindleg, and the other draped around her shoulders. In this way, Khoi gets the maximum floof contact possible in their current position, and boy does it have an effect. Khoi might have wondered what it would be like to touch a cloud sometime in her past, and if she did, Silver feels exactly like how she imagined it. His fur may have a few drops of dew from the moist nighttime air, but it can easily be forgotten and forgiven for just how soft and comfortable his floof is like the best pillow or blanket in the world, and the warmth! She feels much warmer already as the trapped warmth within his fur washes over her. It's enough to give a kirin floof envy.
>>161258Or no hindleg touch, if it's not possible.
>>161258>>161259>Floof envyShe has chest floof too....
Silver may want to move his jacket to maximize her contact with his floof. Or not. Silver raises himself slightly to have the small Kirin under him, and she slightly lowers her shoulders to let it happen. Silver contacts her slick fur and her smooth, silk dress. He can feel himself rub against her scales underneath her dress. Her mane is moved at least slightly out of the way, though her can certainly feel it. Khoi moves her head to face forward. She has a smile, albeit a someone awkward smile.
>>161257He turns his face so she is rubbing her snout into his cheek.
>>161261She nuzzles his cheek a few times before pulling away. She look at him with a sly smile.
>>161262He looks at her
"What's that expression for?"
>>161260Silver does indeed move his jacket to maximize contact. He enoys the unique feel of his kirin, the intimacy of their position, and the lovely winter night they are riding through. The unicorn wonders to himself if this is the most physical contact the little kirin has had in her life, or at least for a while.
And of course, how could he neglect the poor kirin's chest floof. He looks down at it, admiring it just as he admires the kirin it belongs to.
>>161263She presses her lips together, lowers her muzzle, abd gives a pouting expression, looking up towards Dark Nighy.
“Whatever do you mean?”
>>161264It’s… floofy. Okay, she’s not as floofy as Silver. Still….
She looks out into the night air, riding alongside Silver. Her head pokes out, contacting Silver’s head and neck. He may need to be careful to avoid her horn.
>>161265Silver still admires it. He rubs up against his date, not in a sexual way, but to snuggle, cuddle, be closer to, and enjoy the feeling of his kirin date. Other than this, he happily enjoys looking out at their surroundings with Khoi.
>>161267She kids her eyes
“And if I am?”
>>161266With this movement, she turns her head back, or tries to, to look at him. But she ultimately keeps her eyes out on the passing scenery of trees, bushes, and ponds
>>161268"Well if you are, i would like to know. and what the expression was for."
>>161268Silver breaks the silence.
"You said Ngua Nam is in Summer right now? Are their seasons reversed from ours?"
>>161269She nearly closes her eyes, extends her muzzle forward, rubs her nose against the end of his, makes a quick kiss on his lips, abd then pulls away, smiling.
>>161270“I… believe so, yes.” She answers
>>161271"What is Summer like in Ngua Nam?"
>>161271He breathes in slowly, a little shocked she did it.
"Tricky, you're drunk."
>>161273"Hehe, no more than you." She says to him
>>161272"That is when there is the most rain by far. It's just beginning." She answers
>>161274"It is rainy season you mentioned. That must mean Ngua Nam's Winter is dry season, right?"
>>161275"More or less, yes. The temperature varies... but not by much."
>>161274He laughs
"way more drunk than i am."
>>161277"I'm having fun."
Then she takes her hooves, and wraps them around his shoulders. She tilts her head looking at him, then lowers it to press against his neck.
She
cuddles him.
>>161276"Do you have favorite time of year?"
>>161278"That's nice."
He says
As he returns the hug
before looking over at sorrel
>>161280Tricky has a nice enough feel to her, with long hairs on her fur, and a bony shoulder
Both mares have their bodies, legs, and wings pressed into Dark Star, and with the small size of the bed it isn't possible for it to be otherwise.
On the other side of Dark Night is Sorrel, who also has a leg over him, and a hind leg down lower on his body. She looks over at Dark Night, and her eyes are more overtly lidded than Tricky's.
>>161279"I like the spring time, Before the heavier rains."
>>161281"This is like a sandwich"
He laughs
>>161281"I wonder how you would like our Spring, then, when trees wake up and flowers begin to bloom."
>>161282Tricky: "A little, hehe. You're like meet between our buns."
Sorrel: "You can sandwich me if you like."
>>161283Her eyes are wide
"I would like to see that."
>>161284He blushes at Tricky's innuendo
He says to sorrel
"How would that even work?"
>>161285Sorrel tilts to be more on her back. "Just get on top of me."
>>161284"We can experience each and every season together, over and over for years."
>>161287Khoi wags her long, leonine tail.
"We can?"
>>161288He kisses the top of her head from their snuggling position.
"Not just can. We will."
>>161290She opens her mouth and widens her eyes in an appalled look
"No
you're drunk!"
She scrunches
>>161289"Are you sure?" She asks
>>161291"How about 1,000% sure?" He replies
>>161291This causes him to laugh more
"It's okay that you're drunk."
>>161293She scrunches, and then looks down.
Tricky places her legs under Dark Night's legs, wrapping around him. She sits up somewhat behind him.
Tricky:
"I wouldn't want to be sober right now. With how everything is. Better to be here together. Drinking, having fun."
>>161292She looks up, and almost gasps.
>>161294"Why wouldn't you want to be sober?"
>>161294Silver smiles down at his kirin, and snuggles her.
"Sounds good?"
>>161295"Then you think. You remember. You hesitate. You feel down and lonely."
She pulls Dark Night towards her.
>>161296squeekyKirin is snuggled"Maybe, hehe."
She smiles.
>>161297"You and me, our foals, and your family, experiencing seasons of this land together." He smiles a bit wider at her. "I wonder what season you will decide our future wedding will be held in."
>>161297"Hmmmm that is true. but why wouldn't you want to be sober now?"
>>161299"It's more fun this way." She answers, smiling. She leans in, and nips his ear.
>>161298"Uh..."
The kirin is silent.
>>161300Silver gives her a confused, somewhat worried look.
"Getting too far ahead of ourselves?"
>>161300He Laughs at the feeling of having his ear nipped
>>161302Tricky places her muzzle in Dark Night's mane, and ruffles it with a nuzzle. She giggles again.
"So you'd take us back." Sorrel says. She turs in the bed, bac onto her side.
>>161301"A little..." She says
>>161303"Take you back? Back where?"
>>161305"To this room? we're already here."
>>161306"Yeah. And you two are drunk." Sorrel answers.
>>161307He laughs even harder than before
"And you aren't?"
>>161308She scrunches
"I'm just a little buzzed. I'm not drunk. You are!"
>>161309He Looks over at Tricky and then back to sorrel.
"You are more drunk then both of us put together."
>>161303He pets his poor kirin.
"Sorry Khoi. I will slow it back down bit."
>>161311ze kirin is petHer mane is rubbed down, and her muzzle tilts up
"But, um... are you serious?" She whispers
>>161310Trickey herself looks half dazed. She appears to have found the second blanket, and is hording it as a pillow, which she lays her head on. As a source of warmth, she wraps her left foreleg and hind leg over Dark Night, and presses her chest against him - she is spooning him. She does smile, evidently at Dark Night's most recent comment. She is listening.
Sorrel scrunches, and crosses her forelegs. She lays her head back. Her head is upside down, her long blue mane spills everywhere on the bed and over the side, and she stares at Dark Night while upside down. She slowly lowers her hindlegs, letting her hooves touch the end of the bed.
>>161312He leans in just slightly to put his muzzle within whispering distance of her ears, and whispers, "Yes, yes I am."
>>161313She lowers her ears for a moment, and then raises them, and looks forward in silence
>>161314He holds his kirin close, and snuggles her as they look out at their surroundings.
>>161315Khoi at times jumps in reaction to snuggling moves... But she prefers the floof to the chill air. Mist falls down in a fine, light rain. Moving along to the side walk, stone-face candy and flower shops pass along one side, and street lamps and large barren trees on the other, and then past bronze statues of stallions, and fountains with the sound of trickling water.
>>161316Silver points out the statues to his date.
"I wonder who those statues are meant to commemorate."
>>161317"You don't know?" She asks
>>161318"I am new to Baltimare, too. I am still learning history of this city."
>>161319She looks up
"I see..."
It's a unicorn stallion, wearing some sort of jacket and pack with a cap. Evidently military. His right hoof is raised, and he is looking forward in the direction his hoof points. The base of the statue emulates rock, like he's standing on one large rock.
>>161320Silver decides to ask the taxi/carriage driver if he knows who the military pony statue is of.
>>161321The stallion looks back for a moment.
“General Hoebuck. Helped clear out the Diamond Dogs and natives back when the unicorns first settled this land, of something. He was the first governor.”
>>161323"Hoebuck? So, that is who 33 Hoebuck is named after..."
>>161324Khoi looks up at Silver with a frowning expression
>>161325He looks down, and smiles at his kirin. To get her mind off of it, he snuggles her some more.
>>161329If she did not want to be buried in floof and then snuggled, she has made a very poor set of decisions to lead her to this point.
Kirin is snuggled >>161334As Silver continues to snuggle her and they look out at the Baltimare surroundings, she may have a sudden though: there will be a
lot of floofy snuggling in her future.
>>160975 →Anywhere that's not here. Actually, isn't Hellquill a ways to the southeast? Hopefully the road is headed that way. The train is a better option, but where were the tickets supposed to be?
>>161336Hellquill is pretty far North and East, best accessible by train from a different country. The Northern border to Bronzehill is 20 miles away, but it's 20 miles of swamp, and then there is The River to cross. The western border to the Imperial Heart is only 40 miles to the West. But above this, all of this, the train station is slightly over a mile away.
>>161335Pic
https://youtu.be/XLY4TsZBExY>>161337What good is taking the train without a ticket, particularly when you have luggage you cannot part with? At least Amber isn't to blame for this situation. Are there any roads to Bronzehill?
What is certain, though, is that Amber is now
de facto an outlaw in the Empire, even if wanted posters have not gone up yet.
>music related >>161337Ah, she'll learn to love it.
>>161338There are no bridges crossing the Griffking before the Imperial City. The fastest route East out through Hellquill is the train West to Griffinheim, then East to Hellquill.
>>161340Amber will go to the train station then.
>>161339Pic
>>161341You are on the fastest available routeThe structure is oddly less grand than Amber might have expected. Whereas Equestrian train stations are tall and open, designed to impress visitor when they first enter a city, this train station more functional and economical with space. Rooms are smaller, and the dominate architectural feature is blocks of limestone on the facade, which compliment a wooden interior. The building is two stories in areas, and has the same red tile roof patterning as defines most of the architecture she’s seen.
>>161343So um… what does Silver fluff do next?
>>161344Silver gives his date a shoulder squeeze.
"There is at least one good thing to come out of what happened at Hoebuck. I got to meet you, love."
>>161345She looks directly up at him, so that her head looks upside down with her beneath him.
"D'awww" She smiles
The carriage rides through a commercial section, and into a second, smaller park, past more small businesses, trees and bushes.
>>161346"I would like to take walks with you through parks like this in future, Khoi. Especially when it is warmer."
>>161342The problem is getting a train ticket, or having the money for buying a train ticket. Amber goes to the booth and asks how much a ticket to Hellheim would cost.
>>161347She is silent for some seconds before answering
“… Perhaps.”
>>161348“7 fractal guilders”
A grumpy, overweight Griffin replies.
>>161349And Amber does not have the seven fractal guilders?
>>161352"Feeling warm from snuggles?"
>>161354“Yes…” she says, smiling awkwardly.
>>1613536 fractal guilders. Probably wasn’t wise lending that money to Erich, looking back.
>>161355Amber goes back to the car and looks for a musical instrument, preferably the viol.
>>161355"That is good." He resumes snuggling her. "You are excellent snuggling partner."
>>161356The viol is there, in the backseat of the car.
>>161357Pic
“Uh… heh…”
>>161358Amber picks up the Viol, makes sure it's tuned, and stands in a public area with the case open before her. She starts to play….
>>161359Hol’ up. What kind of public area are we talking about here?
>>161358He smiles down at her.
"What do you think of snuggling?"
>>161360The square in front the train station, or wherever there are the most griffons moving about.
>>161362Hmmm….
Alright. Roll perform and luck - two distinct dice rolls.
You can modify the luck roll with Charisma >>161363Unless if she has acquired the old griffon's skills, Amber will have to make do with her amateurish ability.
Perform:
[1d20+3 = (15+3) = 18]Luck:
[1d20+3 = (2+3) = 5] >>161364There’s an excellent, almost preternatural quality to the sound. Makes you wonder what other harmonies could be produced frok this instrument.
>>161366Unfortunately, not much money is forthcoming from passers by in the platz. Admittedly it isn’t the town center, or market square, but the audience is stingy. That doesn’t stop many griffins from slowing down to listen as they pass.
One fractal guilder is offered.
>>161367Griffons gonna griff. Still, one is all that's needed. With the proceeds there's just enough for that ticket.
>>161361“It’s… warm. And soft. And fluffy,”
>>161368The money is tendered, and the ticket given. One ticket fo Griffinheim.
>>161369He smiles at her.
"That is snuggling. And I would love to snuggle more with you in future."
>>161369Is there an included transfer to Hellheim?
>>161370“Oh….” She has a large, somewhat awkward smile.
“Snuggle”
>>161371No. Buy tickets can be had in griffinheim.
>>161372Considering that the police would be looking around for that car that drove off from the manor, better to chance it in Griffenheim. Amber gathers all the luggage and waits for the train.
>>161373It’s a period of 35 minutes. Far from the several hours it was before, but still an unnervingly long time.
>>161372He nods in response.
"Snuggle."
He press his date into his side, and nuzzles into the side of her head.
>>161374Amber tries to move to one side of the platform and keeps an eye out for any disturbance. She considers busking again, but she doubts the griffons would be any less stingy and in any case it would be drawing attention to herself.
>>161375squeekThe kirin is pushed around and nuzzled. Her fur is soft and short.
>>161379Silver uses the hoof he's got around her to feel the softness of a bare patch of fur.
"How did you get your fur to be this soft, Khoi?"
>>161312Dark Night Laughs at sorrel
"Very Drunk"
>>161381"I am not!"
She scrunches, and then turns her upper body from laying on her back, to laying on her belly, twisting her head, shoulders, and forehooves.
The following takes place almost in slow motion. As Sorrel twists her shoulders, almost like a rope her body winds up, and then unwinds, with her barrel and her hindquarters starting to rotate clockwise, twisting 180 degrees to turn her onto her belly. The problem is that her hind legs are and have been partly extended upright. They move from above, down to her right and off of the side of the bed, until they hang out over the the edge of the bed. And with their weight, the change to her center of gravity, and the momentum of the twisting motion halted by her legs hitting the side of the bed, Sorrel's hindquarters move over and off the side of the bed. And the rest of the pony follows... Her hind falls off, then her belly, and finally her front is dragged off as well. Her eyes widen, she presses her hooves into the mattress... but it isn't enough. Sorrel falls off of the bed and clashes onto the floor.
Tricky looks up over Dark Night at the commotion.
>>161380"Well, I washed it in the water, used one of the soaps, rinsed it, washed it with a different wash, and rinsed it again..." She looks down at her fur. "The bathrooms are nice at the house."
>>161382"They are very nice, but they look...unfinished. It is like they meant to remodel bathrooms to make them look even nicer, but never got to it. I would like to finish remodelling them, sometime."
>>161383“Remodel? To what?” She asks
>>161384"To bathroom. You know, repaint walls, put in new cabinets, get nicer tubs and showers. Make it feel as high-class as rest of house."
>>161385She blinks
"It's pretty nice now. There is always warm water."
>>161386Silver nods in agreement.
"House must have very good water heater. But aesthetics of bathrooms could be better, especially with second bathroom."
>>161387Presumably at this point, the carriage ride is coming to its end.
“Another shower is needed?” She said
>>161382Dark Night is shocked to say the least.
He Hops out of the bed and then rushes over to help Her
>>161388"Well, no, there is already two. I am saying that second one could use updating."
>>161389“Ah!” She is now on her back, with her forelegs up. At least she doesn’t seem to have hit her head. She’s dragged one of the blankets with her.
Tricky has jumped up, and is off the bed.
>>161390“How so?” She asks
>>161392“Yes, I’m okay…” she has a pouty expression, but offers a hoof, even as she lays on her back. She has to be pulled upwards enough to place her on her hind quarters. Tricky pets her head.
>>161391Silver tilts his head at her.
"You do not think it is rather plain?"
>>161394She looks down, then back up
“Does it work?”
>>161397Sorrel scrunches, and again crosses her hooves as she sits upright on the floor. Tricky pets her left ear, causing it to flop down.
>>161396The Kirin looks up at Silver. Evidently she does not understand.
The stallion slows down and stops.
“Alright. That’s the route.”
>>161398"Thank you, friend. How much do I owe you?"
>>161399“Maybe a little…” she says
She extends both forelegs, and has a pouting expression.
“Upsies?”
>>161400“With how late it is, and the special request and all… it’ll be 100 even.”
>>161401He Smiles and then helps her back up
>>161401Silver pays the stallion, thanks him for the special request, and gets out to help his date out of the taxi carriage.
>>161402She is picked up. She attempts to wrap herself onto Dark Star, depending on how close he comes to her. She makes her way back onto the bed, and Tricky likewise.
>>161403He smiles, though he seems somewhat surprised at how quickly Silver agrees.
Khoi takes Silver’s hoof, and is helped out.
>>161404"You two probably need some water."
>>161404Clearly, he's used to ponies haggling with him. Silver wishes him a good night before leading his date and himself back to their car.
>>161405Both mares look at Dark Night, and scrunch.
>>161406Both ponies end up at Silver’s car, ready for the ride home.
>>161407He laughs as they scrunch
"It's true though, you would thank yourselves in the morning."
>>161407Silver helps her inside, then takes off towards home.
"So...did you enjoy yourself tonight?"
>>161408Tricky:
“If you want to get us some…”
>>161409“That was… all very new… yes.” She answers, looking away as she says the first parts of that.
>>161410"Fine by me."
He walks downstairs and gets 2 glasses of water
>>161411The bar isn’t closed yet, but activity is dying down.
“A bit of commotion up there.” Glistening Glass remarks
>>161412"Yea One of them fell out of the bed."
>>161413“Heh, glad you’re having fun.” He smiles, and looks over
>>161414He shakes his head and smiles
"It's not like that. anyway they need some water."
>>161415“Okay…” He says, smiling widely. He pours two glasses of water for Dark Star.
>>161410Silver smiles.
"That is good. I am glad you liked it. Think you would like to have more in future, experience other things to do?"
>>161417She smiles softly, turns her head away but keeps her eyes on Silver.
“Maybe…”
>>161416"Mr.Glass if i didn't know any better i would think you like teasing me."
>>161419He looks over, and opens his mouth in shock
“I would
never”
>>161418"Think you would be interested in experience more of what high-life has to offer? Dance halls, balls, spas, et cetera?"
>>161421She blinks
“I have not done any of those.” She answers
>>161422Silver smiles more at her.
"Then maybe it is time you do."
>>161424“Here’s your water.” He offers the glasses.
“Now take it back to those thirsty mares.”
>>161423She lowers her ears, and shows her teeth in a smile.
“But I’ll take it a bit slowly” she answers
