>>586840 He turns down your offer. "Having a look is one thing, taking their product is another. As for what you might do… You certainly are a nanny who knows what she wants." >>586841 There are lights on inside, but all the equipment has sheets over it. There's also only one person inside, currently walking into the back office. >>586839 At the lab you arrive. >>586838 Weißstraße is how you left it: the street is full of bars and inns, and at the end are the gates to the city.
>>588286 Cloudy is hardly comparably dressed. Not having any maternity clothes, she has scant options for coverage (not that it matters). She's noticeably pregnant.
>>588289 He teases: "I asked you not to worsen our reputation for taking without asking."
>>588292 Too true. The captain donk and the warrior donk seem to have an unspoken dialog with very subtle expressions and gestures, but the other jenny seems as lost as you are.
>>588293 It's bad enough that you can't fly so she can follow your hooves, now you have to not fly and SLOWLY. To be able to pick out your sounds in the crowd is somewhat impressive though.
"I would like to find some clothes."
>>588294 >>588295 Unless you've ever been to Anneiv, what you see is a totally alien sight: it's like a big building ate all the other stores. They're all in one structure instead of being independent on the street, and the structure is multi-floored. Einkaufszentrum has no Equestrian translation, as this is the only one.
Emrille and a pregnant Cloudy are nearby. She is nearly as large as Selena alrleady.
>>588296 Well, with how slow we are going she has a lot of time for it. "I know a place that will have some for sure. Want me to hold you with a wing so you won't get lost?" Snicker. Head to that place that had the lots of shops!
>>588290 Over the course of my stay with the fleet, I've learned to rely on others, to defer to those with experience, to submit to my partner… That Hircus isn't here right now. ThisHircus grew up on the streets, taking what she wanted… And right now she wants Winston senseless. "In that case… Mind getting ridden until you can't feel your legs?~" and then rough, femdom sex in the booze plants happened. '5d10'
>>588310 "Well, it's… complicated. Not really? Well, I'll explain later."
Wark gives you a steadfast nod. "Ach, ye look ta be in good spirits fer wha' happened las' night."
September departs.
>>588312 >>588311 >>588314 This is a complex multi-level structure that is full of different shops. On the ground floor there's even a McHamburgerburg. There are all sorts of shops here, ranging from candles, like Wicks and Sticks, to guns, like Little Shop of Horrors. Nearly the entire second floor, however, is clothing. Also notable are a few music shops, Rhythm Heaven among them. In the food court, various independent musicians play for coin.
>>588318 He teases: "I've been hit by boulders. You're not nearly that big."
>>588319 "Okaaaay then?" I'll turn to the jack. "Well, you've gotta be able to bounce back from most anything in this city. It helped that Flowin' Tree there cut through about seven of them."
>>588325 "Well, I tried, but it looks like I got beat here by another performer. So now your commodore wants a bit more than a 'can you kindly.'" I'll shrug. "So I came here to get Tree for a recommendation, but looks to be I'm going to be bait again this evening."
>>588331 "What, like in a fight?" I'll blow him a raspberry. "I'm a singer and showjenny, boyo. My songs can spur lads on to greater feats, but I'm not much to speak of."
>>588331 "They certainly are beautiful." Get up off him and start moving. "Fun as this has been, we should probably head back to the fleet, to wash up if nothing else."
>>588337 "Was more luck than anything. I've no stomach for causing violence, and I'm just happy my lute didn't take too much more than a scuff and a stain." >>588340 I'll cock an eyebrow at the youngster.
>>588333 >>588336 "We don't have much in stock, let me see what Gabe has."
She heads to the back and opens a door. It must be like a sauna in there because big waves of Steam roll out. A very fat pony is inside counting to two.
"Do you have any cavalier hats?"
"A new community model. I just need to think of a name for it."
"That's not necessary."
"Tell the customer that it won't be craftable."
"That doesn't even make sense."
>>588338 "Yes, I'm a bit too sticky for my taste."
He hops up the wal.
>>588339 They're all clothes shops! How do you know if it's pregnant clothes without going in? Stupid shops!
>>588340 He shrugs, unbothered, and doesn't interrupt his speaking.
>>588351 "Alright then." >>588352 "I make songs, Fly." And let's… play a nice tune. Something smooth, perhaps choral, and let's include Fly into the song as well. You had it so that these sorts of things succeed automatically when there's no pressure, right?
>>588365 Most pirates don't wash. The bilge is a location on the ship filled with seawater (where it is pumped out). You trade your sticky fur for sea fur.
You can't really mess this up.
>>588366 "Three refined, or two craft hats and eighteen weapons."
>>588367 The teen replies sarcastically: "I'm not sure we stock diapers that big."
Cloudy frowns. "Did you lead me into the wrong store?"
>>588368 "I'm working on it, okay?" Glare at her. "Fucking… No, she is pregnant." Point at her belly. "Belly too big for other clothes. We need clothes big enough."
>>588373 >>588373 Ugh… Oh! That assistant, Bessie! She has some of that stuff that makes you smell good! Lets go see her! …and since when did I become so concerned about appearances?
>>588388 "Well, the one I just played would help knit your wounds together a bit. I can also get you to put out a bit more effort than you normally would." >>588390 I'll bow slightly. "I live to play, little'un."
>>588388 "Hi there. Look, I know I haven't gotten any jewelery yet, but… I kinda could use something to help cover up the smell of seaweed right now. "
>>588401 I'll chuckle a little. "An enthusiastic audience is always welcome." This time, I'll play something fast, refreshing, and bolstering. [+1 effect, instant, skill recharge -1]
>>588412 There are red and blue wildflowers among the rushes where the ships are moored, under the docks proper. There are also large sewers here… They look mostly clean, so you guess there must be some ordinance against chemical dumping into the River Nea.
>>588413 Yes. You see Light Heart and Selena go into another shop on this floor.
>>588418 They like their food. Well, let's get going, back to the fleet. I don't speak germane so it's useless to try and talk with anyone at the cloud factory anyway. …But… Let's try. Let's just try to go there.
>>588423 This factory – a word here used roughly to refer to alchemic labs – is different from all other cloud factories. They are on ground level instead of up in the hair. You do see chimneys across the water, though.
