Set six years after season 6, Occupied Equestria presents an alternative history where the Changelings have conquered half of Equestria, while a former Equestrian colony - soured to Princess Twilight's notion of harmony with all creatures because of their encounters 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.

>>95503Iron's torch in his head lights on.
"Oh! Silly me. I was thinking something super secret was going on."
He goes back, a little embarrased for overthinking small things like that. His tail was tuck inbetween his legs and his eyes darted to the ceiling in order to appear inconspicuous.
Settling back on the couch, he awaits the incoming blankets that will be sent his way to the sofa backfirst against the soft cushions.
>>95507"Oh, you mean like a physical artist"
>>95508She looks at him
very strangely.
Eventually, she comes out with a set of blankets and pillows
"This should be good for you tonight, you can lay on these, and cover up with these"
>>95506Something Silver can understand, or at least understand enough of. After a couple seconds of silence Silver wraps a foreleg around Blue and pulls her into a close embrace. "You know, if you ever need somepony to talk about this with, or to work things out together with, I am always here for you."
>>95509"yea, do you know anypony like that?"
>>95509He smiles sheepishly when at the couch from how does a bed is made exactly and his previous investigation.
"I appreciate it but I have little clue on how to use these things. They seem so much more complex than what I am used to."
>>95511He looks up, and taps his hoof to his chin
"Hmmm... well..."
>>95510*coo*
"And if you need somepony to talk to yourself..."
>>95513His other foreleg joins to make it a full hug. "You will always be first that comes to mind. Thank you, Blue."
>>95512"This goes under your head" the pillow
"And this goes over your body" the blanket
>>95514*poner is hugged*
She smiles warmly at this, and closes her eyes
"We're here. That'll be 4 bits" says the driver
>>95515Iron nods, following Cauldron's instructions from his prone position.
He rears up his head and places the pillow under it with a combination of his mouth and forelegs.
Then he leans to the blanket, grabs it with his mouth and tries to cover every single part of his body. However he is unsuccessful in covering his lower half of his body and is visibly struggling.
>>95516He tops off the hug with a squeeze before letting go to pay the cab driver. Using his magic, the door on Blue's side of the taxi pops open for her. "Thank you for driving us here!"
>>95518"You're welcome"
*coo*
Skies exits
>>95517"Here's another one" she hooves him another blanket
>>95520Silver follows suit. "I wonder if Star has started another impromptu political rally in time it took us to get here."
>>95520Pushing his upperbody to reach for the second blanket, he grabs the second blanket and places it in its lower half.
"Thank you."
He gets a feel of the room's temperature to see how the blankets are doing temperature wise.
"I have one little question..."
He looks to the side a bit uncomfortable.
"Have you had fun tonight?"
>>95521She shrugs
"We haven't been out
that long. Give him at least an hour to start a pogrom"
The driver still wants to be paid, while Skies starts forth
>>95522I hope Iron likes it warm
"You mean almost getting garroted by griffins?"
>>95524"I've had worse nights" she says
>>95513All of a sudden dark stars head hits the counter as he passes out.
>>95523I thought Silver already paid the pony, but yeah, he gives him the 4 Bits he's due.
"You never know with Star. He is as ambitious and charismatic as they come."
>>95525"Oh. I am sorry."
Iron feels slightly guilty from souring the mood again.
"You did have fun before then, right?"
>>95527She nods, then heads in
A minute later, inside, Skies is poking on a passed out Dark Star
>>95526*poke poke*
"Dark Star? Hello?"
>>95528She smiles briefly
"I enjoy cooking for those who appreciate it"
[Read more] >>95529>>95526Silver, following Skies, looks at the scene with minor amusement. "Looks like all of this drinking he has done today has finally caught up to him."
He looks over to Glass. "How much did he drink since he arrived, exactly?"
>>95529Iron has a ghost of a smile on his face.
"Who would not ever appreciate your cooking? Your expertise would astound even the most stoic of ponies."
>>95531"I don't... know. I didn't think any pony could get drunk that quick"
>>95530*poke poke*
>>95532"Well, we try to get as many customers as possible, but there are only so many who appreciate Zebrican cuisine"
>>95533Dark Star mumbles something racist
"Zigger"
>>95534*SMACK*
"Wake the fuck up, booze boy"
>>95533"But your food is amazing. How could some ponies not appreciate Zebrican food?"
>>95533"Well, he is very light for Earth Pony. I do not imagine it takes much drink to get him like this."
>>95534>>95535Silver winces in sympathy pain at the meaty smack.
>>95538Skies requests a glass of water from the waiter
Then...
*SPLASH*
"WAKE THE FUCK UP"
>>95539That won't do anything. This is his way of breaking up with her without breaking up with her >>95538>>95540"...If it was not for fact that he is snoring, you would almost think he is dead."
>>95541Skies just looks on in disbelief
>>95536"Well, it's different, and not what they are used to"
>>95543"Hmm...have you tried smacking him on ass, yet? I do not know many ponies would would be able to sleep through that."
>>95543Iron nods.
"I see. They are afraid of the different. I understand their concerns."
His vision looks up, his
"Change cannot be controlled as far as I know. Therefore some ponies avoid it, scared of what might happen."
>>95546*shrug*
>>95548She nods
"That might be. Not every pony likes zebras or foreign culture"
>>95549>>95544He looks comfused
"Oh hello. Im wet. Why am i wet?"
>>95550"Normally I say that... It's because I poured water on you, wake up"
>>95550"You passed out drunk, and Blue tried to wake you."
>>95551Dark Star laughs
"Yea you do."
>>95552"Heh, one second i was talking about getting some posters made, the next second im waking coverd in water."
>>95549He gaze is fixed to the ceiling.
"So far, things have not been so bad. I have seen most of the advantages civilization has to offer. The tools I learned not to rely on I use now after some catastrohpic failures. To be fair, the commodities are quite nice."
A small frown appears on his face.
"I hope that I do not become complacent to them and weaken myself from overrelying on them."
>>95553"Some posters? Like what?" Silver sits down in a free seat at the bar, next to Star.
>>95553"Are you alright?" she asks
>>95554"If you did, you'd be far from the only one"
>>95555Somehow... Skies is displeased
>>95555"For my campaign, its never to early to start thinking of some good propaganda."
>>95556"My flank hurts a little."
