Occupied Equestria: set six years after season 6, it presents an alternative history where Chrysalis chose a different approach to her second attack on Equestria. The Changelings have conquered half of Equestria, while an Equestrian splinter colony - soured to Princesses notion of harmony with all creatures thank to their dealing with griffins - Invaded and took the other half. In Baltimare and the Equestruan Southlands, the magic of friendship has weakened, as Communists, Changeling infiltrators, Fascists, gangs, and even ancient necormancers and dark gods threaten the city and the surrounding regions. This role play is based in large part upon the Equestria at War mod for Hearts of Iron 4, and uses D&d 3.5e mechanics.
In this latest episode, the crew has united once again, and returned in full to the catacombs under the Curwhinny farm. What old secrets they will unearth, whether they will survive without being turned into undead monsters... whether Silver will ever get paid... will be determined in this thread.

That's because they are outnumbered
"And indeed they are. Just don't understate the danger to East Equestria."

Sister Ash gives a sigh and pulls a funny-smelling plant from her fanny pack and ribs it on Iron's forehoof.

Iron feels relieved by the plant's effectiveness. "Frankly, I think I did that to feel that sweet plant you put on me." He chuckles. "Maybe it is your touch. I cannot think straight, that I am sure of."

Well duh. They're parasites: they're doomed to be the minority. If they ever spread too far, they wouldn't be able to feed properly.
"That's exactly my point. They're not to be underestimated. Just because they doom themselves doesn't mean they couldn't drag a third of the world along with them, if fate had it."

"Then I can hope these means are enough. I have heard rumors that there are changelings in Baltimare, somewhere. I do not relish idea of this rumor being true, of Chrysalis spying on major factions in city. Probing for weaknesses."
>>81918
"She will still have to tell me secret of how she is able to self-immolate like that. I wonder if all kirins can do that without hurting themselves."

She thinks the Blackhooves r gay.
"Hmmph, it is not my place to decide what faction is legitimate to government the Equestrians. I am but a foreign peace-worker, trying to do my best for who I can assist.

"What can I say? You are quite good at healing." Iron smiles warmly. "Can you take off my armor? I want to show Star how hoof-to-hoof fighting is done."
>>81926
Iron sticks his tongue playfully. "You would do the same if Star had this magic touch."

"I think so. It has to do with anger if I recall, but how they don't burn themselves... I guess it has to do with being part dragon. Don't quote me on that though."

"Oh, they can all do it..." Sister Ash replies unenthusiastically
"The trick is learning how not to."

"I can tell you right now that there are. Dark Star here killed one just a couple nights ago. Wait"
She pauses, and pulls out a small flashlight from Dark Star's bag, and shines it between Silver's eyes
"Changeling Empire alright. We found a nest of spies"

"I would prefer doing it whenever you feel like sleeping. I heard that it should heal all the bruises when you wake up, so I suggest to fight at twilight or even at night."
>>81935
Iron smirks "Pretend to act dumb. I know your game, Skies." He does not seem like he is thinking straight still.
>>81932
"Thank you, Ash." Iron hugs Ash for some reason.

"I regard the situation on the Changeling expansion as an ecological phenomenon. For verminkind to encroach on the habitats of others despite the limits of their niche is cause for concern on my behalf. That does not put my investments in any particular faction."
>>81939
Iron Finds that Sister Ash is no longer on fire and is now safe to hug.

Sister Ash is somewhat taken aback by Iron's touchiness with her fluff, but doesn't push him off.
"... You need rest.. I think you may have inhaled a bit too much smoke.."

"I am afraid if they have made it this far in their infiltration, then we are fighting uphill battle. Infiltration of major factions is sign that they are fair ways into process of preparing for invasion. Next step is to probe for weaknesses, for cracks in foundation, then focus on these cracks until entire thing is ready to break. And if business at docks is anything like it seems, I would guess that is point they are trying to reach."

Silver shakes his head no. "I still do not know specifics of what happened. All I know is that you were there, and there was changelings."

"Dark Star hired us to sneak into a meeting with several communist officers from over seas. It was supposed to be a stealth mission, but our Kirin can only take so much stealth as you know. So it got loud, became a gun fight, one communist turned out to be a changeling, we stole their gold, destroyed most of their arms, and got a few prisoners."
The sorcerer realizes something.
"You weren't there though. The prisoners will be released soon and we will have to head out before they try to rally a revenge plot on us, but you are good to stay."

"And you know same as I who that future enemy is." He shakes his head clear of the worries that have gripped him. "Bah. It does not do well to worry on changelings, and seeing changelings in everything. That is lesson we learned during Changeling Scare. I suppose you will do your best, and that is all I can really hope for."

"I think she would have greater chance of having romantic relations with him if he is conscious. At least, that is feeling I get from her."
>>81957
"Hmm. Communists. No matter where you go, it is always same." He chuckles. "If worst comes to pass, I suppose I could always try to disguise myself as one, and try to get you all to safety. I already come from Severyana. I already have accent. All I would need is to spout some bullshit about 'liberation of proletariat', or whatever it is Reds say they fight for nowadays."

Sister Ash shrugs
"I wasn't ever entirely sure what the mission actually was. I was only along for the ride to find children. I heard that the arms needed to be disposed of, so I did what I thought was right in the moment." She replies

"Oh. I was not expecting that." Iron is stunned by the lack of knowledge of the mission from Ash.
>>81960
"Fine, you have that point in your favor." Iron shrugs.
>>81961
"Like taking care of eachother is not romantic by itself. Besides, the 'unconscious' part is just temporary. I would give about 20 minutes tops."

"Pfft, it is just bruises. He can sleep it off. Besides, if he can take a beating, he can take your cuddles after it, so there are no consequences to this fight." Iron thinks. "Maybe you need some ice to make him feel better."
>>81965
"I like that cocky attitude. I hope you can match it in skill." Iron smiles, ready for battle.
>>81966
"Oh come on, quit being such a downer. What stallion does not love being taken care of at their worst? It is the most romantic thing to see the mare dutifully taking care of you when she could be doing anything else." Iron starts thinking somewhat suggestive themes related with nursing.

"Sleep it off. He takes my cuddles. Dutifully take care of a stallion when she could be doing something productive. Right."
Definitely not a content look or tone.

"As somepony who was once married? I preferred being conscious enough to hold my wife in my embrace." He thinks for a couple seconds. "Now that I think of it, I do not believe I was ever knocked unconscious in presence of Storm Warning in first place."

"I never really tried that, so I am not sure if I actually can do that. Yes, I have broken my share of big sticks back in my tribe, but trees may be too far." Iron thinks. "Maybe I could try now, since there is nothing that the tree could damage."

Silver doesn't look like he believes what he said, himself. "Consider it favor to you and Dark Star. You are good together, from what I have seen, and I imagine you would much prefer to spend tonight together in each other's embrace, rather than putting ice packs on bruises, or sitting next to him on hospital bed."
