Occupied Equestria - Prelude to Coming Madness
Anonymous
VhNVX

No.91000
Set 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.

Silver is learning about foreign pony cultures, Dark Star is preparing to put on a play for the children of the Saint Prancis Orphanage, Onyx has received several possible missions from the government, Brie is buying clothing, presumably for a long journey. Ash and Iron are leaving the office of a now enraged gangster... or not.

Indeed, that is a pleasant surprise. He might find himself suddenly missing his cranium after he gets Blue her books, but Silver supposes that's something he'll have to deal with in the future.

I was going to have her refuse to place herself in that situation. Then Silver kind of just forced himself on her after she made a statement that it seems was misinterpreted to mean 'mount me.' And I figured, well shit, he's basically already on her, which she doesn't want, but she also doesn't want to upset silver, so she won't really kick him off either. So I had her act uneasy for a few minutes, then I figured that that would not work either, so it became 'fine, but damn it, don't you dare cum in me.' And then he failed that

I warned you, both in and out of character, that this was going to happen from how physical the two were being. But Skies nor Silver listened. She didn't take the hint from Silver's kiss that she was pushing it too far and enticing him too much to fuck her. Now we'll see what happens.

In America, restaraunt waiters a d bar tenders are not paid by the hour or by flat salary. They are given a very low hourly wage, and are expected to make most of their income from customers leaving tips, which is a culturally mandatory practice. Thus, Onyx, as a Bar Tender, could be expected to make most of his money from customers leaving tips. Including those who ask for Cheese

It's a fair assessment, even if it's the wrong ideology. "Я клянусь, если я получу свои копыта на этом пони летучей мыши…" He takes a few seconds to compose himself so at least he won't frighten everypony he passes by looking like your typical angry Stalliongrader here to invade and convert their foals with his dangerous communistic ideas. Once he looks at least semi-cordial, he heads out, with two stops to make before heading to the catacombs: first to a general goods store to buy a simple cheap pocket watch, second to the potions shop to buy four Potions of Hide From Undead.

Ash sperged out during negotiations over a foal, forcing them to leave without the goal, then went to find the other goal where she *immediately* sperged out, and whether she fucked herself over by doing this like she did last time remains to be seen. Silver tried to claim Blie Skies as his own personal waifu, eventually penetrating her without really asking her permission first, possibly impregnating her, and ultimately seriously pudding off Dark Star’s player and Blue Skies. Brie foalnapoed the two changelings, bought them bulletproof fancy suits, and now is evidently about to embark on a trip across the country with them.

For context, you're currently being dragged by Caleb. You're in a sort of shop with Ash, Iron, a blue-maned unicorn and maybe a renegade nun whose motives is unclear for now as to why she's here.
Silver doesn't know this. He seems to think you were at the room still, but Brie took your place as the foalsitter, therefore setting off Brie's current story path.
We'll see what he does. Will he sell them? Will he be succ'd? The outcome is currently unclear.

This is the first thing they warn DMs about in the section on questioning whether or not to allow/include sex in a D&D campaign the BoEF... Jealousy between partners, heartbreak, diseases, unintended pregnancies; sex can complicate things quite a bit when it comes to RP.

He comes closer to Spark, trying to engage conversation with him not wanting the counter mare, nun or filly to listen in. He talks softly, almost even a whisper, to him.
"For now, everything is somewhat alright. First visit do not go as well as expected, but we managed to maintain relations with the owner... somewhat. I will have to tell you later any details later.

He doesn't need pillowcases.
Okay, so assuming that there is sufficient time, and especially because GM kinda-sorta indicated I should/could, Brie would usher the Lings back to the Tavern, where he would see Onyx tending the bar.
"Oi. Come with me." he would say. Looking quite fetching in a new suit, which is mirrored by Kerr and Wesley's suit. Without a word, he would dart upstairs to Silver's room, where I assume he would find Spark,
"You're here too? I could use your help". he would say, pulling off the pillowcases and stuffing toys into them, particularly the toy soldiers and (oh fug, I'm going to have to back-read to see what toys Wesley was playing with aren't I?).
