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.

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.

“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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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

In fairness, it’s the same ones who saw her go in. But yes, she isn’t entirely inconspicuous, either.

“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.

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.

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?”
