Occupied Equestria, Day 5, Mid to Late Morning

Six years after season 6, Occupied Equestria presents an alternative history where Chrysalis chose a different approach to her second attack on Equestria. The Changelings have conquered half of Equestria, while a former Equestrian colony - soured to Princess Twilight's notion of harmony with all creatures thank to their dealing with griffins - Invaded and took the other half. In Baltimare and the Equestrian Southeast, the magic of friendship has weakened, as Communists, Changeling infiltrators, Fascists, gangs, and corrupt creepy politicians threaten the city. 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.

Ash and Iron seem to want to head out from the abbey. Dark Star was having a conversation with the rescued foals after doing community service. Silver is having a surprisingly friendly conversation with Blue Skies about politics. Spark is babysitting and Brie is supposed to be doing the same. Onyx is sleeping.

A green light envelops Kerr, almost like a cocooning green flame, which recedes after less than a second, to show a grey bat pony: grey coat with purple hue, back short mane that almost spikes, small fangs, and no cutie mark.
He says: "Ich bin dein dummer jüngerer Bruder"

Wesley looks up, almost cutely
"Okay. Wir sollten gehen"

Wesley is the first to come out. He moves his hooves through the window, flaps, then moves through, falling down somewhat, before finding his way up. He beats his wings bizarelly quickly, much faster than a normal pegasus would. Kerr comes out second, looking around the area through the window, then beats his wings at a furious pace, and bolts through. He goes rather far forward before eventually circling around and coming back near by. He looks all around himself outside on top of the roof, taking in his surroundings

You're forgetting the possibility of antagonizing Cauldron as Iron used her name to enter said office. Overall, pacifism is top priority for now. No need to enter unwanted dangers.
Problem is that Ash, being capable of turning herself into fire, needs to be convinced not to escalate the tensions further or risk severe burn injuries and be unable to carry her out of the room.

This episode on Void Adventures!
It seems a female changeling worker has lost her hive due to ponies. However, she has a hopeful, optimistic view on them.
Which idea will prevail? Are ponies truly aggressive creatures or are they just scared of what they don't understand?
One thing's for sure, ladies and gentlecolts. She is definetly going to try to show that changelings can be good.

Sike. Cutlery don't have brains so they can't into logic. The train actually takes you to a grey stallion, from hoof to mane. He stands behind a ship which seemingly is floating in the endless void.
"Welcome sire. Are you by any chance the new pony that's supposed to clean the floors?"
He does not seem to care about his current surroundings, sporting a quick smile, showing off the many wrinkles he has.

The grey pony's smile grows wider.
"Oh thank goodness! I thought you'd never make it, mister Coal. Follow me."
He turns around, walking towards the side of the ship, where a thin plank, from seemingly out of nowhere, levitates itself in front of the stallion's path, leading into the ship.
Unfazed by this sudden apparition, he proceeds to go up the ramp and towards the ship with grace an old pony like him shouldn't have.
Onyx himself may need to tread more carefully than him in order to follow.
aka roll balance in order to walk through the plank and into the ship.

Managing to stay balanced through the plank walk, he is greeted by the dullest, most unimpressive sight a ship can offer. It's the simple ship used way before motors were used, consisting of sails and such. No engraving or any sort of beauty decorations that he can see. Only wood.
The grey pony in question goes to the eastern side of the ship, passing through the wall like it never existed or was just an optical illusion for Onyx.
He comes back with a mop and an empty bucket, again phasing out of the wall.
"Here you go, mister. We'll set sail in about half an hour."
Another smile forms on his face, then dissipates as his eyebrows furrow.
"You don't have any problems with sea sickness, do you? I have another bucket for you if you need it. I would like you not vomiting on my ship floor, even if you clean it afterwards."

Fun fact if anyone here cares at all: I found out that if New Mareland has put in an effort towards improving the range of their aircraft, even if they somehow lost control of every airfield in Equestria, they could still reach much of Eastern Equestria using their BD-4 Manebourne strategic bombers. Especially if they took off from the islands of Eldoran, Boltaire, or Cross Island.

Also, rollcall, I suppose, since I have no idea who's on.
