There is indeed a spoon and forks. Amber should be aware that there is no way that Price run doesn't know she's there, and what she does may be noticed.

Amber considers her actions for a moment. She could probably stir it around with the excuse of really wanting a bite, but it would be a bad look regardless. Instead she blows off the excess spice, with hopefully enough bonding to the sauce to accomplish her purpose.

What a beautiful dish! Amber almost wishes she could taste its horror, as a way of testing herself and deriving schadenfreude from the fact an icky stallion will suffer the same fate. That's normal, right?
With the hard part done, she waits for Mustard to come back, which should be soon.

>"Come in." He says firmly, almost demandingly
Posey does not need to be told twice. She enters the building as soon as she is invited.

Kira's finding it hard to believe that anyone could resist the call of the knobs. While the plastic ones look fancy and modern, the wooden ones feel just a tad bit more natural if not for the varnish that's been applied to them. She looks to Neela to get her opinion.

The Kaftar moves back into the candlelit room. Posey can see that pews have been removed, the floor is wooden with carpet, and there are paintings and items on the walls. But Posey isn't paying attention to that. The Kaftar looks directly at Posey, and allows the other to close the door.
"You are the pony who asked for Agire. Why do you speak his name?"
>>175321
Mustard does indeed come back after the passage of only seconds. He's somewhat exasperated.
"And then the final dish, to the very waiting pony..." And he takes it, stopping only if Amber addresses him.
>>175324
"Oh... okay..." The little kylan is waiting for Silver, sitting down, looking up at the passenger side door, waiting for Silver to open it.
>>175325
Neela: "Yeah, it's... these are nice, sure, but... why are you playing with those?"

"Agire was our friend, one of a kind. His passing a a great disappointment to us, and I'm sure a great predicament to your temple as well." Posey says
"But where I come from, we believe that the bonds of friendship need not end, and so I come to make a proposal to you, one for which I humbly request your assistance." she continues, bowing her head politely

Amber won't slow down the waiter, instead waving him off and returning to her own station. She still has to worry about being spotted by Salt Mixer, but that worry is minor compared to everything else that came before.

Amber goes back to her station to find it quiet and with no pony waiting. This may mean some ponies slipped through and seated themselves, but it could just be a normal lull. Amber has time alone with her thoughts. Well, maybe not. Better check the status of the seating to see if anything has changed since she left.

"Indeed it was, but what right have you to call hi-" He stops
"Need not end? What? What do you have? What could you have? He is dead. I will not see him again until the next life."

"Okay... I guess it didn't go so well the last time. I'll wait here." He answers, slumping down a little

"With Agire dead, the line of succession for this temple is broken: that's bad for both of us..." Posey continues
"I propose to you, a ceremony to make an appeal to The Angel to raise Agire from the grave." Posey says, with a blank, serious expression.

"We make an appeal to the other side by offering them a life in exchange for Agire. Depending on the result of our appeal, we may be blessed with a miracle, through which he could return to us." Posey says
Posey opens her satchel and flips through her grimoire, stopping at a page that roughly illustrates the process.
"I'm sure you're familiar with the concept, being a seasoned priest yourself."
She continues
"To do this, it will take some cooperation. Appealing to a higher power for rewards of this magnitude isn't simple, it would require divination, and guidance, the sort of the priestly variety. I myself have a suitable candidate that we could use for the ceremony, but I'll need your assistance, and your approval, to carry it out."

"I have not heard of such a ceremony" He replies, though perhaps without firm conviction,
"The Angel does not give life back. Not even for life. Were it so easy..."

Posey shrugs
"I'm doing this because we, no I, wish to stay on good terms with the future of the kaftar temple. It's only with your blessings that I can proceed in the appeal; if not, I will be on my way..."

Silver gives the crestfallen colt some headpats.
"There will be more opportunities, and when there are we will make sure to do plenty of things more fun than taking Khoi to work."
As for the jealous Jubilosa: does she want a kiss, too?

"Awwwwww..." Kira, though disappointed, complies to the deer's order as if she were her fawn, and stops playing with the radio dials. "Which one do you like best, Neela?"

The knobs are still there, though. In reach... so many of them....
"This one" She pokes at a semi-random wooden radio with a half-oval tower design, and vertical stripes of wood covering what must be the speaker on the lower, more rectangular portion.

"Okay..." the colt lowers his head
scrunchy griffin looks away

GM, if Posey is going to carry out her plan, she's going to want to buy a couple items, so I would like to appraise the value of Posey's jewelry (3 rings, bangle, necklace, bracelet). Posey should be able to hit a 15 DC taking 10 with all available bonuses.

This is fine, but I strain to believe she can get it done at 3 AM… perhaps a multi-night plan

Elsewhere in the restaurant, ponies are about to find out what happens when you don’t do the cooking by the book.
Amber, however, has discovered that two young stallions have slipped through and seated themselves. Melon Mangrove’s section

He walks past Posey in a half circle that seems almost predatory or threatening, but with his head visibly locked forward and down as he walks through the dim yellow light of the converted building, it is more likely he is thinking.
"Agire was willing to meet with the outsiders. He was willing to converse with other faiths. No. He loved to meet with the outsiders. No, he wasn't in favor of integration, but he did join that... Society... And it killed him..." He looks to Posey holding his head below his shoulders, such that he is looking up towards her. It doesn't make him look smaller, but more like a cat ready to pounce.
"But Agire was indeed wise. He did trust in the Angel. And he trusted in The Society. I know of no way to bring him back..." Now he looks away, even lifting a paw as if unable to look at Posey. "But I have to take that chance... To get him back." And then his head turns back to Posey, and with a sniffle "Yes. I will take your... offer..."
>>175378
Her section is not equally crowded. The booths along the wall are full, the tables are not. It appears that the interlopers have gone to a booth that was just freshly cleaned - at least hopefully it is cleaned - and was the lone open booth in her section. Hard to say if this is "too" crowded. The tables are far from full.

"Oooooo! Great choice, Neela!" Not that Kira would know, she knows next to nothing about radios other than that they pull sounds from the air. But, she does enjoy the nice semi-natural feel and look of the wooden radio as opposed to the more manufactured feel of the plastic radios. She takes the radio, and looks to Neela if she has anything else she desires.

Hey, knobs are important, Neela shouldn't be knocking Kira's enthusiasm for them.
"Aww, well maybe some other day then." Kira takes their new prospective purchase up to the counter, excited to delve into this new technology.

There’s a mare at the counter, but that mare is willingly replaced by the stallion encountered earlier, who also seems to want to keep a distance from Kira, but is content to remain behind the counter. He looks at the radio chosen.
“Just this?” He asks

Silver wraps his forelegs around his griffon and pulls her in tight. He fully embraces the passion and skill she shows, and attempts to match his griffon goddess despite the difficulty in doing so.
After she has given at least as much as Khoi, Silver breaks the kiss despite how much a part of him wants to continue. He's running late enough as is. "Love you, Jubilosa. I will be back soon, okay?"

Kira tilts her head at the stallion, curious by what he means. The façade of her being a pony is only slightly broken by a tongue flick. "What do you mean? Is there more we need for the radio to work?"

She’s a bit more tender than Khoi, oddly, despite not having Khoi’s soft lips. Her tongue is also softer. She smiles to him with half lidded eyes.
“I’ll be here.”
She waves a claw to wave him bye.
>>175389
“Well, I understand if you don’t want or need a phonograph, a second radio, or a television. The Fillydelphia Electric model 8 is a very good radio.”

Okay, that should take care of everyone. He waves bye to Jubilosa as well as to the other creatures present before he goes out to the car, opening the passenger-side door for the patiently waiting Khoi. Once she's in, he gets in the driver's side.
"Okay, got everything? Ready to go?"

Oof, ouch, eee. That's a big price tag, even for Kira who has less of an idea of the actual worth of Bits.
"Hmmmm...I think we'll just take the radio for now, if we need more later we'll be such to come back here!"

>>175382
>"Yes. I will take your... offer..."
Posey nods respectfully
"I appreciate your willingness to trust me, after everything that's happening."
She continues
"Appealing to the other side is no simple task. Even after exhausting all of my own powers, I have only a one in four chance of succeeding; but together, we could raise our chances."
Posey then explains her plans for the ritual.
She explains that she has a "prisoner of war" (Sasha), a diamond dog, that she's willing to offer for the ritual. She assures the priest that it's unlikely that anypony will come looking for her, because nopony knew she was here in the first place.
Since the ceremony involves sacrificing a creature, it needs to be done in secret, but the chance of success increases if it can be done in front of ten followers and on an altar. If the priest can offer Posey any assistance in bringing the sacrifice into the city unnoticed, she says it would be much appreciated.
Finally, Posey inquires if Di Bin Milyaketan is willing to assist her with spellcasting to increase chance of success. I feel it's safe to assume he has Cleric levels, because his presumed successor was affiliated with the Society Of Bones, and was therefore likely a Cleric capable of casting Necromancy spells. She inquires the scale of his powers (what level spells he can cast), with the presumption that he's unable to raise the dead. If Di Bin Milyaketan is unwilling or unable to assist Posey with spellcasting... Well, she could try to seduce Baka to help her out.
I'll stop here, GM, because I just want to point out that although I mentioned Guidance Of The Avatar in my rough draft, it is a Web archive spell and is considered by some to be kind of cheap (+20 circumstance bonus to any skill check), so I get it if you don't want to include it in your game.
The plan without Guidance Of The Avatar is to buy a scroll of Imbue With Spell Ability and give it to Di Bin Milyaketan, and have him imbue Posey with the spells Sacrificial Skill (1st) and Lore Of The Gods (2nd). Posey intends to sell the scrolls she never uses alongside the rings she can't wear to afford this.
Posey is trying to hit a DC 35 Religion check, which could call a Lilitu and have it cast Raise Dead. The DC 40 check for Limited Wish is pretty much unaffordable without the spell mentioned above.

“No one here will make any fuss of a dog being slain. I do not just mean the Kaftar. To smuggle in, I am… less sure. Perhaps among equipment, or a delivery. As for location, here in the church, or better, in the crypts beneath it. I will certainly help in any ritual. Where I am most skeptical, is that the angel will accept a trade, but…I am willing.”

"I appreciate your cooperation. Agire was an asset to the Society, and his death is a great loss to us. I'll do everything in my power to undo his untimely deaf, even if the chance of success is low." Posey replies
"I'll make haste. The window to bring him back in good condition is closing."

Now that Kira can definitely handle, and she still has a good amount leftover after she places the required Bits on the counter and takes her new radio out of the store. Before she slithers towards home with her radio and her deer she waves bye to the store workers on her way out.

Using his magic, Silver helps her out with the seatbelt. It's likely just a simple lapbelt, and it gives a satisfying click as it snaps into place. He makes sure to adjust the tightness to fit the kirin.
"So, where did you find emplyment, anyhow?"

Kira presumably carries it on her back, which is to say, over her stomach on her snake body. It needs to be tied up. The pony stallion mentions home delivery but Neela says it’s unnecessary. Kira walking along the sidewalk is still awkward, with ponies generally wanting to give her room. Crossing the street becomes harrowing when the light turns green as Kira is halfway across. Neela walks behind Kira.
They make it back.
>>175401
She smiles to Silver.
“A restaurant in Eastside. It’s down this road, then turn left on Secretariat, and it’s down four blocks.”

Kira walking along the sidewalk is still awkward, with ponies generally wanting to give her room. Crossing the street becomes harrowing when the light turns green as Kira is halfway across. Neela walks behind Kira.
They make it back.

She smiles to Silver.

Well, darn. At this point it would be rude to seat them somewhere else, but she doesn't really have any other option or else others will get upset. She approaches them.
"Erm, excuse me. This booth is reserved"–a half truth, as she's indeed reserving it for a larger group–"But I can seat you at another table."

"I can try..." Posey says
Does he say anything about his spellcasting abilities? That might be helpful.
After this is discussed, Posey discusses an intended time tomorrow (at night), and leaves the church to begin preparing for the ritual.

"That sounds familiar...is it run by zebras?"

Yay! Kira excitedly goes inside, and ponders where to put their new radio. She is very much wanting to try it out as soon as she can.

The two colts scrunch at Amber.
“There’s no sign.” One says.
Table options exist for all three active waiters. Booth options exist for Cream Pop.

“Oh yes, I have eight levels in-“ No, he does not say that. He alludes to this not-proven-to-not-be-a-government-informant that he has magical powers, but he is vague on the specifics.
>>175405
“Yes…” she says, with reservation.
>>175406
“Just put it in the living room. And plug it in.” Neela says. She actually comes up to the radio, trying to fiddle with it.

Kira does so. It takes her a moment to look between the plug and the wall outlet to figure out what she needs to do to plug it in. There's a tiny snap from the electricity as the plug is inserted, causing Kira to jump back lightly with a startled hiss.

"And one of them is named Black Cauldron, right?"
If Kira is worried that Silver is going to judge her for working for zebras, it so far appears that she's safe.

With this, she leaves

I don’t think Kira even hissed at Free Rover when he tried to yoink her
Neela jumps back, hoping on her front legs first, then her rear legs, perfectly hopping backwards away from the hissing and presumably rebounding snake. Kira is, well, hopefully not electrocuted, providing she doesn’t hold it on both metallic prongs, which would be difficult with hooves anyways. If she is electrocuted… at least it isn’t fatal.
Noise jumps out of the box. A bit of static, but then music. A sound of trombones, then the saxophone.
>>175410
“Yes, she’s… well she is head chef, more or less.”
>>175412
Posey leaves the church and into the rain, still watched by eyes cloaked in the darkness from the edge of poorly-lit streets.
>>175408
The scrunchy ponies do at least obey Amber in her relocation of them.

"Oh, I know her! She's nice, and she knows how to brew potions. Her coltfriend introduced me that night just before we came to Hoebuck."
Silver makes sure to keep his eyes on the road, as he continues to talk with Khoi and navigate his way to Black Cauldron's restaurant.

She goes back to her regular duties.

Admittedly, electricity is more starling than a silly/handsome pony trying to pick you up.
No electrocution, just a startling noise and a rebounding snake. Once she's calmed and starts to hear music, her mood completely changes. She lowers herself down, looking at the radio with big, wide eyes, and her ears excitedly turn towards the source of the music.
"Wooooow..."

“Yes.” She nods, closing her eyes. “He was the one who set me up working there. She is… a little demanding. She knows how it is to be, and wants it done that way.”
>>175416
The little box secretes the sound of a whole band, with a bit of static. Neela comes up to it, turns a knob slightly, and with that the sound is clearer.
>>175415
The time moves on. Amber may either focus her full attention on her duties, or the… other portions, if the restaurant.

What is there to focus on? It's mainly standing there and waiting for ponies to arrive. She looks around the restaurant a little to pass time.

Keeping her ears turned towards the radio, the awestruck Kira looks at Neela.
"And all of this music is just in the air all around us?"

"It could be how she was raised. When your parents train you in something they are good at, there are times when they demand perfection from you, and it can rub off onto your own personality."

There’s a bit of speed and back and forth with Mustard Trim. Sone pony watching.
>>175419
“Uh…” she looks up, and to the left, then turns her head to the left, and her right ear flops down and out before she turns her head to look back at Kira. “I guess so.”
>>175420
“Yeah…” she looks down. “She wants it done right,”
The drive is short, and it’s not hard to see why Khoi thought this was a walkable distance. It’s only a few minutes.
>>175421
Oddly… the rain feels refreshing. Posey is not harassed on the way back, not even by the soldiers, who seem to recognize her.

Silver stops the car in front of the restaurant when they arrive, but as it seems she's still got at least a couple minutes before she has to go inside, Silver turns towards to Khoi to continue talking.
"That was nice surprise you gave me back at home, but I do have to ask where that came from. Not that I minded, of course."

Mustard looks to be doing well. What surprises her more than anything else is that she hasn't heard anything of Red Scabbard.

“That was… um…” she looks down and at her hooves, which she clops together. Then looks up towards Silver with an awkward smile. “Heh heh.”
>>175424
“Well, that’s equestrian music. It’s pretty popular here.” Neela answers.
Kira counts… three instruments?
>>175425
Oh, but listen closely. Or look outside. The little pony will find out soon enough.

"It was nice." Silver smiles at Khoi, and reaches a forehoof over to touch her side. "I do hope it happens more often in future. We can work on practicing your kissing."

Hmmmmm, Posey would have preferred to avoid that, but it can't be helped seeing how she's so powerful and beautiful.

She doesn't want to move from her spot, but pony ears are sensitive and she swivels them to the source of the sound.
Listen: [1d20+3 = (6+3) = 9]

She may have. It can be hard to count and distinguish.
Neela takes a moment to reply
“No. Not really. No.”
>>175428
“Heheh” she lowers her head even more, blushes, and looks over towards Silver, with a very wide, toothy smile that shows off her small fangs. Her side is nice and soft, and she seems to react positively to the touch.
“Maybe… maybe tonight…” she says
>>175429
In fairness, it’s the same ones who saw her go in. But yes, she isn’t entirely inconspicuous, either.

"I would like that." Silver uses his magic to undo her seatbelt. He also leans in towards her if she would like to give/receive a goodbye kiss.

Kira continues to listen to the music for another couple of moments before resuming talking.
"So, if you were forced to stay here for a bit while I went out on my own, would you be all set? Is there anything else you need?"

Mason seems a little uncomfortable with this new request, but says nothing. He calmly and carefully backs the car up, and starts the drive home.

“Well…”
Looking out back at the restaurant, Silver sees a young zebra mare . She is mostly white in color, with thin black stripes and a bit of black at the end of the muzzle. Her coat is well groomed. Her mane is a short black, combed to the side. Her body has the slight dip in the back, wide barrel, and wider flanks of the typical zebra. Her eyes are a bright blue, and she wears a necklace and earrings. She looks at the vehicle curiously.
>>175435
“I… think so.” She tilts her head. “Are you going somewhere?”

"Well, I was hoping to get some proper sustenance for myself. I...don't think you'd want to be around for that, it sort of creeps out non-lamias. And then I was going to go to R&M to follow that lead from the Customs ponies for a job."

The zebra mare distracts Silver from his attempt to smooch the kirin some more. He rolls down his window and looks over at the zebra mare, who likely works at this establishment.
"Hello there, ma'am. I am Silver, Khoi's ride. She will be inside very shortly."

“It’s kind of late in the day for trying to do work… though they are probably open. I can’t imagine they’d let the sun going down get in the way of harassing creatures. I still don’t understand why you’d want to work for them.” She pauses, and looks at Kira. “Shouldn’t you have a witness for when you eat? Someone to say it wasn’t a pony?”
>>175439
She walks up slowly towards Silver. She’s reasonably attractive in her own right.
“Ah. I didn’t know she had a…” she looks over at Silver. “I’m just with the wait staff.”

Hmmmmmm...nah, those thoughts are definitely best kept out while he's with his kirin. He turns to look back at Khoi, and though there is now an audience he does still lean in for a kiss if she should choose to do so.

"It's the only way I can get recognized by the governor, and he's the pony who can get my tribe safely settled here. Though, I did hear that one pony mention a mayor..."
After her pause, Kira tilts her head at Neela. "I mean, I could have one, but...why would I eat a pony?"

“He’s my Fiance” Khoi lies. This may be the first time he’s heard her lie, at least that he could recognize. Then she leans in for another kiss. A hard kiss, like before.
>>175442
“Because you’re big enough to do it.” She answers bluntly. “Do you want to just assume the ponies will take your word for it? Or would you like somedeer to back you up on it?”

Damn, that's certainly an interesting path for her to take. Silver accepts the kiss, but he tries to use his own mouth and tongue to try to guide her, showing her how to not be so hard and rough and instead how to be soft and tender while kissing, taking their time to explore each other's mouths and enjoy the moment.

I suppose this makes sense, as she's trying to sell a story rather than prove something. Still, Silver does take this opportunity while he has it to at least slightly messed with Khoi.
"Love you, honey. Have great day at work!"

"I'm not ashamed of it, I just know how the zebra workers back in Dhamaji reacted whenever they saw how a lamia eats. Anyways, let's go, maybe we can find a farm not too far away that would be willing to sell a goat or something."

“Oh. Goat. That’s your meal of choice.”
She has a very wide, sly, closed mouth smile, and moves along with Kira.
>>175448
She blushes, lowers her head even further, and her ears move back. She places both hooves together, bending her legs in and placing them in front of her chest. She whispers. “Really?”
