<bray_eyeanami>:01:14:And that’s why everything you like is terrible.
<otaku_john>:01:14: Guys, I think I found it!
<Dogsuka4lyfe>:01:15: Found what?
<otaku_john>:01:15:The lost episode! I’ve finally got a lead!
<2DPD>:01:15:Bulldrek. You’ve got to be fragging me.
<bray_eyeanami>:01:15:How? I’ve been searching for ages!
<otaku_john>:01:16:Went on a trip to the deep resonance. A lot of records were still kept on paper during those days (you know how traditionalists are) but I managed to get a fragment of a memo that someone scanned in. Apparently Group Flack paid the Yaks to have C-Train shut down… Permanently.
<Dogsuka4lyfe>:01:16:I can’t believe it! We need to start a boycot!
<2DPD>:01:16:Says the one who can’t shut up about Among The Empty.
<Dogsuka4lyfe>:01:17:It’s the closest we’ve gotten to an orc female lead since… you know.
<2DPD>:01:17:You do realize they’re just going to kill Makoto off so Takashi can have something to feel bad about before he and Rei ride off into the sunset?
<Dogsuka4lyfe>:01:18:I’m allowed to dream. Besides, I can’t have a cuddle pillow harem if there’s just the ork from Meta High.
<bray_eyeanami>:01:18:We get it, you want to fuck a tusker. John, you got any other info?
<otaku_john>:01:18: No, but I think I know how to get it. Send out a call to all the other fans, we need to start pooling money.
<2DPD>:01:19: What for? Is it really what I think?
<otaku_john>:01:19:Yep. We’re going to hire some runners.

TO ALL PLAYERS
You are minding your own business doing something only marginally illegal for once when your com-link vibrates, rings, or does whatever the hell an over-hyped smart phone does to inform people that you’ve got a call. Fishing it out and hitting answer, you see a dark silhouette. In the mechanical tone of a voice changer, it says “254 Cheshire Drive, third table from the left. Be there at eight AM tomorrow. Don’t be late,” before hanging up.
When the next day rolls around, you find the address with little difficulty. It turns out to be that of a franchised cafe, one of the ones where they have a chalkboard listing the day’s specials and use three different words for “large.” You make your way over to the third table from the left, where you find several people already sitting. It's a little before the appointed time, so you have a moment to say hello to each other.

Give the table a glance, and instead walk over and order an equivalent large white chocolate mocha with whipped cream and no lid.
Then turn and head for the table.
"Cheshire Drive?"

Suddenly, all of your com-links ring at once.
The caller is of course, your 'Johnson', the person pulling the strings to hire all of you. He’s still using a voice changer, but you might be able to pull out a few details if you squint.
"Oh, you came!" He says in an excited voice. " *Cough* I mean, I knew runners of your caliber would. Now, I'm sure you're all interested in what the job is. Don't worry, it's not too hard, just something outside of my skill set. Just like Lupin, I'll need you to 'acquire' a valuable, hostorical artifact for me. I'm prepared to pay well for the job."

His ears perk up at your response, the he shakes himself and gets down to business.
"I can pay each of you 9,000 bits, but the job is in Los Caballos. It'll take a day for you to arrive via the Cyberrail from Seaddle. As proof of my commitment, I'll foot the bill for tickets."
He gets excited and jumps towards the webcam and tips it a little when he hits his desk.
"How does that sound?!"
>>603935
"Well, it might be, that's why I'm hiring you. My own, unique, brand of skills are ill suited to the task."
"Come on, you're all in, right!?"

Nine thousand for just one job? Cha-ching!
"Eh, all right, I'll bite. Though if ya turn out to be some toddler spending his dad's money, I'm gonna kick the shit outta ya, okay? And I'm being literal here. I will beat ya until ya lose control of your bowels."

What few patrons there are right now seem closer to zombies. They need their coffee.
>>603942
You can hear a faucet going on and off in the background of the video feed.
>>603943
Just a coffee shop as far as you can tell.
"Oh, before I take care of the rest, will you bring your own gear? I can get you some here, but I don't know if it'll be to your needs."

"If you think you got something useful then I'll take a look at least, you can never have enough tricks."

>>603947
"Okay, that makes it easy on me. I've already arranged a few things… Umm, you don't happen to have added pouches to your gear, right?"
The Johnson is furiously tapping on his keyboards. You can hear them over the filters he has set up.

Quirk an eyebrow at him, then remember that my goggles mean he probably didn't see that.
"Why? I gonna need extra pockets or something?"

"Yesh! I mean, I've succeeded in getting one of my agents at Grand Horn Railroad to cooperate and it only cost me an Ange fig-… Important stuff, right. Just, he can get any stuff you bring along through, but he says that you'll need to be careful with the security staff. Don't hide any weapons on you and be prepared to have them give any replaced limbs a good once over."
"Is that alright with you all? I'm sure it's a minor inconvenience for all you rough and tumble runners, right?"

Sigh heavily and roll my eyes as I lean even further back.
"Not like we have a choice, do we?"
Would my stuff set off their sensors or something?

"Get this, the guy on the inside is a Pegasus! Isn't that neat! Anyways, the Agent says to get to him first and he'll make sure it passes the machine."
>>603955
He clicks a few times on his computer.
"That, doesn't seem to be an option on their site. Sorry."
>>603956
"Well, since you're already in Seaddle, It might be a good. Tell you what, there's a shop on 83 Colton Court. Pick up a package and the tickets from there. You'll have a few hours before the train arrives. Just think of it as confirmation that you've taken the job."
Ready to pick up the package and head to the railway?

The store you were sent to was inside a shopping mall, but there was a Crystal Pony with an apron is waiting just outside it for you. She hooves you a brown bagged package and the printed out tickets.
The rail station itself is sparsely equipped.The fans on the roof seem to have been the same one from the last century and the seats have accumulated the smell of 100 years worth of sweaty travellers. There are all sorts of people here, ranging from Goats with ritual dyes on their coat to tired barnwagers to a little filly with too much energy for the place and a few replaced limbs barely more advanced than a peg leg. You're certain you could swipe some of the screws on his legs.
The Tirekian Transit Authority Buffalo and his henchponies are dragging someone over to the back. There's a Pegasus guard who seems a bit more skittish than the rest of the TTA guards.

Dragging someone? Who exactly are they dragging?
A slightly manic grin starts spreading over my features. A chance to start trouble and not have passerby interfere with me beating their faces in? This could be awesome!

You could only see their bottom half, but it was either another Earthie or Unicorn. There were no wings on that one. A Gryphon appears from another room with a medical kit and starts walking towards them.
>>603963
The little Earthie Filly starts following him around. The Pegasus guard doesn't seem to know what to do and keeps flying around, occasionally looking down at a sheet he has and then looking back to make sure the kids hasn't hurt themselves.

The Tirekian Buffalo had two guards with him and now the Gryphon.
There are 6 scanners, but only one sleeping guard and another just walking between them. The Pegasus wears a similar vest and badge as them.
#"GRAND HORN LINE TO LOS CABALLOS WILL BE ARRIVING IN 20 MINUTES, PLEASE PREPARE YOUR LUGGAGE FOR INSPECTION."

"No, it happens. Still not that many Pegasi around, so kids are bound to get curious…"
His eyes go wide and his ears fold back, but then quickly goes back to a normal face.
"So, you're the guys he's willing to pay an Ange for. Ha, this will be the easiest way for me to get my hooves on one of those. He told you to put all your stuff in the bags right? No funny business and you'll be on your way in no time and I'll be hugging her soon enough."
A moaning yell can be heard from the back offices, but the Pegasus is quick to leave your company and grab a megaphone and starts giving instructions, slowly flying over to the scanners. He motions for you to follow him.

The kid rushes to the scanners, the father trying to keep up with all the luggage. He rushes past the metal detector before a guard can stop him.
As for an Ange, this knowledge is too obscure for you and most of society..
>>603972
The Pegasus acknowledges. As your stuff gets into the machine, you see his wing reach into some gaps of the scanner, some flickering, and none of your gear triggers the alarm. He turns to wards the back office and giggles for a moment, then goes back to being professional.
>>603973
The curtains have been closed and one of the guards has come out, yelling orders in an attempt to conceal the noise.

"He had what in there! Ahaha…"
>>603978
"It's just, heh, we're not supposed to say, but uh, he was trying to smuggle nitroglycerin on board. I don't know what type of moron would do that, but we got one."

As soon as the train arrives, your escorted to the second car from the front. The seats are well cared enough and there isn't any garbage lying around. There's a food car only a small distance away. It also seems the Johnson got you seats that recline, you could catch some sleep on them.
"Just, try not to pull anything crazy, I'll do a lot for an Ange, but I don't want to lose my job over one."
>>603980
>>603981
"Yeah, and he…"
"Heehahaha, had it in…"
"He had it in his…"
The guard is only capable of giggles and chuckles after this point.
The train starts pulling away as the last passengers rush to their seats. A few struggle to keep their balance, but nothing major happens.
Except for one passenger, a Goat with tattoos, who is talking into his com-link.
"The Package is aboard. Let's do this just like we planned."

Love Love Horsie High!~ was a controversial anime series made in the latter half of the twenty first century, being the first anime to feature meta-equines in significant, non-villainous roles. A harem comedy about a Earthie protagonist who got transferred to an all meta-equestrian high school, it faced a large amount of opposition from the more traditional elements of Amareican society. The production team was forced into hiding, but promised that they would still broadcast the thirteenth and final episode.
On the appointed day, fans all over Amareica waited. Instead of the conclusion they were promised, they received a short message explaining that the episode had never reached the broadcasters, accompanied by a calming picture of a boat.
The riots lasted for three weeks across nineteen cities, eventually destroying several million bits worth of property. The action hit what many consider to be its climax when a disgruntled otaku animated the 5/1 scale Celestia statue in Gnu York. Needless to say, ratings for news stations covering the disaster went through the roof.
When the dust finally cleared, the rioters had accomplished nothing. There were still no clues as to the fate of the final episode, and it remained that way for almost fifteen years. Now cut to the present.

From inside the train, you'd be hard pressed to tell anything was wrong. The sodas are still cold and everything seems to be moving along fine.
But some of the personnel of the train are moving up and down the corridor with surprising speed.

Cheap shot.
Try and make the car lose control. At this speed it shouldn't be hard. They are chasing after a hi-speed train after all.

This is the third turn, so they drove up very close to the train. The taser bolts fail to pierce the tire, but being flung around everywhere, they catch onto some mechanisms and short them out.
However, firing a taser weapon means that your gun is now attached to the vehicle and quickly pulls on you. Roll to keep your balance.

Love Love Horsie High!~ is the most commonly cited trainwreck anime produced in Amareica. Even the most casual of viewer will notice where each episode is handled by different people. But for all it's problems, it also gets cited as a good show.
Hiro is the protagonist of Love Love Horsie High!~, starting off as another bland MC meant to have the harem thrown at him. But as a way to save budget and only have to pay as few voice actors as possible, we follow Hiro as he struggles to live without parents, make sure the house is maintained, dealing with neighbors, little things that make him stand out as his own person instead of just a blank slate to insert yourself in.
Of course, you don't know why this knowledge is coursing through your brain right now. If you're not careful, the Gryphon with a large caliber shotgun will put a few bullets in it. His yammering Zebra ally off to the side and the Buffalo whose stench is now ingrained in all the furniture isn't helping.
There's a Unicorn with a knife in the side of his chest on your waiting room table. You might want to help him.

The knife is oddly thick, but the edges are very sharp. It's own weight seems to cut slowly into it. These guys went in somewhere way over their ranking.

Shower off, making sure the plug has it's waterproof casing on first; Grab the mail from the mail slot; Sort the bills as she eats a simple breakfast of cereal, milk, and hormones to help keep her body from rejecting the implants; Get dressed in her full-body-covering work clothes before heading out for her job at the local MegaCorp Retail Store, where she works as a cargo unloader.
Brittle Bone Disease; she was a test patient to see if metal casings could prevent bones from fracturing under stress. It worked, but it means she's going to be paying bills for the treatment for most of her natural life unless she hits it big. The fact she didn't exactly volunteer doesn't help matters.

It bills itself as a boutique, but this store and many others like it dwarf the Wal-Marts that we know of. Ever since the Laws of the Sisters could be ignored, they have been, and this place shows it, at least to you. Just a few days ago, you had to replace a section of wall that the rain was starting to get through. Made you wonder how sturdy the rest of the place was.
Does Sheva have her own method of transport, or does she usually ride mass transit like most people?

It bills itself as a boutique, but this store and many others like it dwarf the Wal-Marts that we know of. Ever since the Laws of the Sisters could be ignored, they have been, and this place shows it, at least to you.

Mass transit is cheaper. Go ahead and listen in to the Com-Link's message as I ride along.
Though she doesn't suffer Brittle-bone Disease anymore, she does suffer adverse side effects if she forgets her pills, since her body will start trying to reject the metal lining. Also, the procedure left her heavily scarred across her body- not everywhere, but in locations where they're sure to get noticed, like you'd expect from a procedure exposing all her bones. As a result, she always wears full-body clothing. Thankfully they had the decency to leave her face alone.

"Hey, hey, how's my favorite little robot doing!?" The Com-Link yells. "Hey, I know you're always a bit busy on your end, but I have a simple, and uh, uhm, easy, yeah, easy job for you. But I need you to text me your response after a few hours. I have something to do on my end, primo important. See ya, and please respond."
It's Striped, a local ne'erdowell Goat who tends to get his snout in everyone's business. He tends to be stingy with the pay, but he's been upfront with you.
It's starting to rain again, but at least you're covered by the bus stop. There are still lots of pulled carts, usually Equines with families, though you see a few mana powered ones for the more well to do. The bus that comes up your way has seen better days and better paint jobs, some of the kids got to it earlier and tagged it up. Getting inside, you immediately flagged down by a buffalo lass who seems familiar.
Roll to determine who it is.

It's Khundi, a Buffalo and one of your neighbors. You recall that she would often leave early to join up with her friends, but it seems she's alone now and caught an earlier bus.
But that's not important. What is important is that you are looking straight at her. She's still in Middle School, but she probably weighs more than you and your metal bones by now.
"Miss, Miss, sorry to ask, but you said you worked at Chose Rare, right? If it isn't too much, can I ask for a teensy favor?" She says, trying to look girly and cute, but her sheer size putting a damper on that. "The Winter Dance is coming up, and I'd like to know if you have anything that would fit me."

Roll twice, Buffalos still don't have much of a fashion industry aimed at them. You might have to make do with some stuff.
"I want to, SO BAD, but I can't miss any classes. I feel so far behind already. Just, let me know what you can find, please and thank you!"
She jumps off at the school stop and surprises a few classmates. Seems even they aren't used to having someone so big be in their classes.
The rest of the day is spent doing normal, menial things. They know of your particular skill set and they're probably breaking lots of rules by having you carry so many things without a cart, but that's the type of world you live in.
Your shift is about to end when you receive a text message with two directions on it, nothing else.

As you get closer to the directions, your Com-Link keeps bursting with new directions. Follow them?

The AR coordinates lead you to an office. Stripes' office, and it's in bad shape. Lots of papers thrown around and desks over-turned. He's always been a bit off, but even he wouldn't cause this much damage to his property.
They eventually lead to a highlighted ceiling tile. Proceed towards it, or do something else?

None so far. What you do find is that whoever was here was in a hurry. They looked through his papers and rooms, even the bathroom is a mess, but didn't take any measures to clean up.
Removing the tile, you find a small box containing a silenced pistol, 24 bullets, and a data stick. Your Com-Link also now only has one location. Proceed further?

SHEVA,
A quick search through you Com-Link gives you a map of the area. The Blue Area is the house you are currently in, the Orange mark is where the Mana-Cart was on your way through.
How will you proceed?
SYMPATHY PAIN,
It's morning, real early, and it's already starting to rain. What kind of home do you live in with your brother? A simple apartment, a former mechanics shop, or something else?

Also, how does Sympathy get there? Does she have a bus pass, or is she stuck walking?

It's slow enough in the morning, so it isn't much. Only a few kids with coughs and an older mare with headaches comes in. She starts talking about her own bills and life while you fill out the paperwork. Humor her, or just deal with some of the back stuff?

The Passenger of the mana-cart, a dull grey Earthie, steps out into the rain and stars yelling out for his comrades. The rain is making it hard for his yelling to get through though.
The driver, a brown pony, starts yelling his own things, but stays inside.

It stops shortly before the door, but all the doors seem to fling open at once. Three passengers come out and they all rush inside, a Diamond Dog shutting the door behind them.

The Bat pony has a strong body, your initial check shows, but there are a few small caliber bullets in his legs still. You'll need to get them out before you can really treat his wounds.
"It'll be all right, right?" He asks in a worried tone. The Diamond Dog opens the back door and peeks around. He's got a gun, and so does the Earthie that came in with them.

This goes on for a while, seems like he was attracting bird shot and 9mm rounds towards.
"Ohmyyou'relowWW!" The Bat Pony says.

"Yeah, looks like we ain't being tailed." He replies, casting a glance at you, then he puts his pistol back in his holster.

You can tell something is off with these bullets. When you put them on the plate, none of them make the same noise when you drop them. He doesn't start breathing better after you pull them out either. In fact, he's starting to spit out some blood.

He covers his mouth with his hoof, but that makes it easier for him to see he is still bleeding. His eyes go wide when he looks at you.

There's a pretty big Earthie with some friends and some luggage. You'd probably be able to fleece him of his clothes and he wouldn't even notice!

The Diamond Dog and Earthie just look at each other for a moment, to process what you said.
"We know a guy," answers the Dogge, "He sent us to you. Said you knew about these type of things."
The Batponies breathing is becoming harder.
"But it doesn't matter right now, don't you have something you can give him?"
>>610161
You fall down before you can even reach for the luggage, catching a glimpse of his underside.
He's got a shotgun.

"Aaahh!" He lets out before the Diamond Dog shuts his snout.
His bullet wounds seem to be boiling and some strangely colored liquid is coming out of them. But the Batpony starts calming down, he seems to be breathing just fine through his nose now.

You approach them silently. Your light Pegasus body letting you approach them efficiently even without your wings.

The two mares jump, attracting even more attention. They smile and then 'suggests' getting some food and pull you into the nearest soy burger place. They get real close to you.
"Just order something and act natural, okay?"

He moves his head up and down, the Dog still keeping a paw on his muzzle. It takes some looks being shared between them for him to release.
"What did you inject me with, and what was *Oww* stuff that came out of me, doc?"

"It smells terrible. Do whatever you need to take it off of me." The Batpony responds.
The Earthie goes off on the Com-Link of theirs and starts messing with it. Meanwhile, the Diamond Dog turns towards you.
"You do this often? You were pretty calm through most of it."

"It's fine!" The green Unicorn mare grumbles.
"We just need to look like we belong. Just do as we say and it won't matter. How about the Number 3, for all of us, just to get this farce done?" The pink mare adds in as she looks out through the glass doors and windows.

"I've left the usual payment where I've been told to leave it. But, here, this is for you." The Earthie hoofs you a credit stick. "For services rendered, and a few other things."

Across the street, you can see several unsavory individuals in suits. If these two stood out, those guys might as well be in clown suits doing jumping jacks.

The walk home is quiet. Seems the rain dispersed the crowd that was forming. Only a few mana-carts pass by, but some of the big highrises off in the distance are turning on all their lights.

While they do stand out, they seem to be on the level. They're standing around, some of them having soy lattes to try to blend in. But they all ordered the same thing, so they look extra suspicious.
The Unicorn Mares cross the street with you, and the rest of the 'conversation' goes on wordlessly. A few grunts and head nods, some small USB sticks being put on top of devices that flash green, and everyone is starting to smile.
Then the bullets start to fly!

Perhaps just scout amongst the dock area first and see if the usual ruffians are there.

Heading into the 'apartment complex', you stop near your Dogge friend's burrow. She's sleeping with her ratty blanket.

Not really
I think I might just finally take a well deserved rest and head out to a restaurant.
my social life is also terrible…maybe I could change that too and make some friends

While most of Seaddle's restaurants score low on the health inspector's report, many try to live up to the reputation the city has of having plenty of open air cafes.
There's a simple latte place a block from your work, but that puts you at risk of having to deal with patients.
There's a simple place run by a lonely mare a few blocks from you. It's a bit of a climb at times, but she always seems to be there.
There's a franchise one that just opened. It's usually packed with people early in the morning.

Surprise, surprise, another long line today. You can smell the coffee and the acne on the underage workers. Lots of people, but most of them are talking on or looking at their Com-Links.
Which you should too, now that you have an unidentified call beeping on yours.

A few ponies pass through the lines, swinging their credit sticks while you chat. You see her right down everything you say, some concern passing by her face every time you mention side effects.
Your Com-Link beeps with another call, if you want to take it and get something from the cafe.
Can you relink your sheet? I don't have it on my laptop.

"Sorry about that. We're all just a little on edge. Job's halfway through and it's already gone hooves up. So, what Hospital you work for? Saint Sun, Caballero Central?"
He turns around and motions for you to follow him. The house inside looks like it has seen several centuries of parties and never once been cleaned up.

"Don't worry too much about the 'job'. Less any of us know, the better. Safe to say, though, that it didn't go as smoothly as we had liked. Accid over here managed to get himself stabbed a few times."

"Yeah, whatever. Anyhoo, we know to try to keep the blood from coming out, but we're not exactly willing to take them out and we've been giving him some, 'unconventional medicine' to keep the pain away. Think you can help?"

The wounds seem bog standard. They were jumped by a gang, after 'acquiring' some goods. Managed to ditch them and took shelter here, a little safe house. In the basement, everything is much cleaner. There are still loose cables hooke/d up to numerous computers and cabinets, but it's a world of difference from upstairs.

Lots of computer parts. Your brother might have fun with those. Some radio equipment, and a few spare batteries. But most important of all is the Extend-0 Stretcher inside. Something has been done to it, but it needs some work since half of it isn't popping out.
Of course, your R.E.S.T. still sits comfortably on your back. In your wallet, you only have what few credits aren't going to bills. You'd have enough for bus fare and fast food.
Outside, the driver of the mana-cart is waiting. It's the Dog from the other day! Seems he makes a living as a driver.

His appearance softens for a moment, but then he gets back to business. At least he held the door for you.

There's a bullet hole in the door.
He nods his head, but quickly gets into the driver seat. As you pass down the streets, you can see the squalor people are living here. Lots of junkies means that most houses seem to be pieces of material that conveniently block the weather than can pass for a 'home'. Even your place ranks higher than these.
Lots of people fight to get out, like those gangsters in that heavily armed cart catching up to your rear.

You're stronger than you look. Much stronger. His skull felt soft as you send most of his teeth into the street below. His body goes limp, but before he falls and hits the pavement, a Unicorn's TK pulls him up and over into their cart.
"Her, grab her!" Comes from inside the eney cart, as it pulls in close and a Gryphon is trying to grab you! Knock him away!

You get a full view of the Unicorn leader. A red coat with an orange mane, he stares at you, smirking with his gold teeth that has 'EAST' emblazoned on the top and 'SIDE' on the bottom. You can see the Pegasus on the back seat, blood coming out of his mouth, and you can tell you broke the bone on the Gryphon. In your cart, it looks like the Goat took a good hit to the leg.
You should watch that strength.
"Just some two bit gangsters. Looks like I was right, they are all starting to move. Someone must have been knocked out and now they're trying to get a piece of the pie."
After a few random turns, the cart turns in towards an alley with a Well-Dressed Zebra at the other end.
"You know the drill. The girl brings me the goods. The rest stay in the car."
The others look at you. Looks like you're their only option. They lift up a case from the back.

"Always grabbing a little extra, huh? Now I know why you only charge as much as you do."
He takes out a few small pieces and adds them to his bag. He pushes the case back to you.

It's been a few weeks since the last time you've been called. Life went pretty much as normal for you, with the exception of Open Seam working on his new little toy.
Of course, the fun of being a Shadowrunner is getting the call. It's early on your day off, and you Com-Link starts beeping. There is no information given on the Caller ID.

Lots of errands. The money from the last job is almost gone, but you at least don't have to worry about bills for a while.

He unfurls his wing and takes the cart to the sky.

Gyr just shrugs. He's only been told to come pick someone up.
"That boy, he got to close to a generator and started SURGE'ing. He's a Crystal pony now, and his emotions have been all over the place. We've had to sedate him to keep him from hurting himself more. Please, leave him in our care, I beg of you."

You move a bit further down the hallway, but Gyr is visible distressed. He might be a pro, but the job is getting to him.
"Is the hallway clear?"

Bad news, steam is blocking your view of the hallway. Looks like a Humidifier broke.
Good news, as long as you stay quiet, the shooters can't see you either.

You bump into a cart containing surgical tools. While they are loud, several other screams ring out, blanketing your mistake.

There's a pile of papers on the desk, and you notice that a lot of them are about the Citrine kid Gyr is carrying.
And looking out the door, you spot one of the Shooter Ponies that Gyr managed to hit. He's watching the hallway you had run through.

Lots of folders get mixed in there, now isn't the time for subtlety.
So what are you going to do about the "guard"? There's only one way out, and that's through him.
You can have Gyr shoot him.
You can try to sedate him, but that'll need two rolls.
Or [FILL IN BLANK]

The reception area is too cluttered. The only good spot is one of the restrooms, on the foal changing station.
It's a small caliber round that hit the bone but didn't penetrate. Seems Gyr isn't packing too much heat.

He stares at you for a moment, then limps his way to the Men's restroom. Despite all the harsh cleaners, the place has a musky smell to it.
He gets on the changing station and lifts his shot leg.

Goddamit how can this place still smell?
''Alright, stand still''
I start to examine him a little more as I think of my choices
I could either patch him up and hope he'll let me go in peace, which might be unlikely since I'm a witness
Or I could sedate him with the Injection gun…But it might not knock him off right away…
''Hmn…Some pieces of your bone broke into little splinters and are lodged into the flesh… I'll need to make a slight incision to open up and make sure that there are no bone splinters there, or else you're gonna feel a lot of pain for a good while…Hold still while I apply the anesthesia''

You're already in the Bathroom. A nice pooper stall to toss him behind and you still have the bathroom door to go through.

And I suppose it's best I go back to the hospital manager room and see if Gyr waited for me or if he went off without me. I really hope I don't have to leave this place without a ride…

Unicorn Telekinesis to lock it from the inside.
And Gyr is gone. He took the chance you gave him and flew off. Most of the people in the waiting area have cleared out through the elevator.

The music coming from the elevator doesn't match up with your scenario, but it's a smooth ride. Looking at the elevator buttons, this is an unlisted floor.

They blurt that back out to the cops and they radio you in. Being unharmed, they just hand you a blanket and let you go on your way to the other nurses.
A full S.T.A.B.L.E. team outside is preparing to march in. The last time your clinic was robbed, you got a rent-a-cop who just wrote things down and most likely threw the paper away.
Your COM-LINK is beeping.

It's another run down part of town a few blocks away.

It wouldn't be out of place in the hospital, though it doesn't have the strong medicinal smell.
Gyr is with the Crystal pony kid, wrapped up in a blanket, breathing incredibly hard.

You run into more than a few chairs and lampposts on your way out. You're physically capable of taking them, but not Rhodon. He cries almost the whole way out.
You do manage to find some cover underneath a bridge though.

But now you're stuck with this sick child at night and the people you trusted shouldn't be.

You get a room from the Night Stallion, a motel the local prostitutes frequently bring up as being discrete. The attendant just takes your bits and doesn't even look at you.
The room is crapmed with a smelly bed and a non-functional TV.

As the night presses on, Rhodon actually manages to calm down. He still hyperventilates a few times, but you've seen far worse. You see him crinkle his nose whenever he tries to smell something.
"Can, can I take a shower?" Rhodon asks.

The bathroom is small, only barely able to fit itself and the toilet. even with the usual lack of building enforcement, this one is excessively tiny. The shower barely accommodates you, and a lot of water will be getting on the floor.

Professional. You must do this a lot at the clinic.
But while cleaning him up, and getting rid of the hospital smell on him, you notice that he still has some clumps of fur. The Crystals are taking it over, though, since you get a lot of his fur stuck on your hoof.
There is a complimentary towel here. It's questionable, but it is there.

"Ok, okay! Where's that? What's happening?" Rhodon says timidly.
It's dark out, but there are plenty of loose equines here. Some familiar faces, but plenty more that you can't even pin down their race.
How will you head home? It's still a fair distance and Rhodon won't be able to move faster than a hurried limp.

White lines shift as if in a whirlwind over the large black end of my body other races call a face, signs of a mind lost in thought.
Then, air dances through the pores of my upper body, giving a fleeting, dancing voice to those thoughts.

Rhondo, however, looks even more alien than a Crystal pony should. He's constantly turning his head, looking at everything intently. Even the leftovers earn extra moments of attention.

Rhodon looks at intently at the cup, then gulps. "It tastes funny."

Despite its haphazard construction, the robot is capable of making a decent bed.
After you put him to bed, Open Seam asks: "So, what happened? Is he another kid they left at the clinic?"

Most people who are into "questionable" material tend to try to hide it.
But not in Cyberspace. Here, the Third Street "importers" have spent a little, by which I mean a lot, of money sprucing it up in the virtual world. Lots of ornate details, even non-standard textures. You can tell by the Avatars passing you by that there are numerous people just looking at their more legitimate goods. But if you go into the "back door", you can meet the Admin and Second Myrmid in Command, 'Dipper'.
"Hey'o, how's it goin'… I mean, welcome to my humble shop, Customer. You seem to have taken a wrong turn."

"Hehe, you've got a way with words still." The oversized Avatar says with a chuckle. "And you'd be right. How familiar are you with the old Sewer Town area?"
>>641189
Smoke
Smoke everywhere. It's thick, it's hard to breathe. You can't tell if there's a fire though, but you feel an intense pressure on you. You search for a door, or a window, but no matter how far you run, you never get out of it. Until you fall.

"The reason I ask is because this one is going to need a bit more meat space work. Someone wants some parts moved in quietly, and we aim to please. I'd send some of my guys, but they're off their rockers, if you get my drift." Dipper's avatar makes an inhalation motion. "Just came up too, but the client seems a little too anxious and specific about times and stuff. Here's his contact info if you're capable."

You wake up panting, since ponies don't sweat. Checking on Rhodon, he's a heavy sleeper, and the pillow is covered in drool. You'll want to wash that.
Open Seam is already up. Presenting his robot with all kinds of object and testing it out by running it through obstacle courses.

"And between you and me, the fact that the guy didn't mind his stuff going through Sewer Town sets off all kinds of red flags. I don't have to remind you, but just make sure you wipe all history of being here. But if you get it done, you're going to like the pay."

Her eyes go wide, then they just show confusion.
"Where did my life go wrong? When I was a pup?"
Once you finally emerge from the apartment, the smells of garbage and fading paint assault your senses. The place is falling apart, and so are the people. Since you still have to get to the other side of town and then even a little distance out, how will you get there?

A few impromptu fences don't stop you. even if you go all out at the buffet, it'll be a while before Open Seam can call you pudgy.
The market, despite its less than ideal location, is full of different breeds and Equestrians. Tons of food and people can be found here.
What are you looking for?

It's morning for you Hawknia, and at least your Com-Link made it through the night without its charger. Gotta get ready to pour those cups of coffee to all those hard working stallions and bulls of Seaddle.
The sun isn't even out yet, but there's plenty of noise outside already. Other early birds and goats can be heard outside, trying to beat the masses at their own games. You can smell breakfast coming in from your open windows, the neighbor ladies know how to stretch that soylent hay.
Don't forget your hat.

The Com-Link falls from its stand, reminding you to charge it.
You've got an old feather brush with you, a little stronger than most since it's reinforced with duct tape. The shower was intended for smaller equines, it'll be a tight fit right now, even with your lithe frame.
You'd better hurry if you want breakfast here or to nab something at work, but the clock is running out and your stomach is growling.

Such a tiny door to the shower means you always have feathers out of place, but maybe the flight to work will push them back where they need to go. You don't have time for breakfast, or much food left either.
You'll want to be quick if you want to beat the other flyers to the security checkpoint to get into town proper, else you'll have to deal with "him".

It's a close flight, with your wings nearly clipping several other flyers and nearly dirtying your work clothes as you flew too close to some apartments. The only problem being that you can small the smog starting to come in, if you were a regular Gryphon, you could have gotten sick.
Arriving at the checkpoint, it's the Zebra guard so far, from the night shift. You've managed to beat most of the rush hour crowds at least, but that just means the holo-ads can be heard at full blast.

>Lift's paws with wallet

He just glances at your pretty picture, making sure it matches you, and opens the gate. You're through! Just in time, "he" shows up, flashing his stupid manecut. You can hear the rest of the females sigh in despair and any males with a shred of decency will try to avert their eyes.
Past the checkpoint, it's still pretty lousy, but there are notable efforts to keep this area clean. You're starting to approach the Corporate area, and they do spend some bits to make it slightly presentable. A few trash cans around and a street sweeper can be heard as a Gryphon guard chases a Pegasus checkpoint flyer.
It's smooth sailing to the work place, or so you'd think. Roll for your ability to Notice.

You're an Assassin, or at least raised in their ways, since your resume only reads Barista at the moment, but you know when something is up. The trash, it's not regulation bags that are piled up waiting for a dump truck. You can see bits of cable and pipe sticking out of them. There's a smell of manure. Only about 40 feet ahead, right next to the road, with your growling stomach being the only noise you can hear.

Or they could have run off if something had caused them to do such a shoddy job, even at the end.

There's still the matter of the pipe bombs being used as detonators, and you better think fast.

The COO gets on the phone as his entourage starts throwing out high-hoofs. More alcohol is brought in, though lots of sodas are mixed in the group.
As the machines slow their whirring, the Pegasus Doctor flies over to retrieve the data stick with the new findings. She lifts it up triumphantly, showing it off like it was a championship trophy.
She turns and smiles towards you as her head explodes.

There's a Unicorn levitating a shotgun.
He picks up the buck and chucks it full force at your stomach.
"She's up, but make it quick. We don't know who could have hired her and I'd have rather just run her over a few more times than wasting bullets."
A peppy Dog comes into the room with you, the windows boarded up. She approaches with a smile, then puts her claws to your neck while the Unicorn watches in the pale light of the bulb.
"Hi honey, sorry about running you over, but we really needed to ask you some questions."

She uses her thumb to feel for the veins in your throat.

"Fair enough."
She shoves a sock in your beak with her left hand, then reaches over to your front leg's elbow. She pokes at it, but you only have a strange sensation coming from it.
"Next time you see a bomb like that, leave it alone." She smiles as she pushes ever so slightly and you see the rest of your leg bend in a direction it wasn't meant to.
You have 2 seconds before the pain registers.

The dinky knife is a scalpel, it won't do you any good. The COO absconds through the stairs above, but the shooters are mowing down anyone in a lab coat. There's a second set of doors to the operating room, hurry up and pray you don't trip on someone's entrails!

She only sees you moving around a bit, maybe your tail could have loosened up the bindings on your hind leg, but the pain reaches your brain, stopping you in your tracks.
The Diamond Dog smiles as she leaves.

*BLAMBLAMBLAM*
You hear coming out of the room as you and two other assistants managed to make a run for it. You head down a hall with an intersection.

I whimper into the sock in pain, but somehow my tail swishes in excitement, this is the first interesting day I've had in years.
I'm going to stay awake for all of this. What other entrances to this room are there?

You find numerous bodies as you head to the right.
That nice Secretary who always gave you a smile, now she's leaning back with a bullet in her head.
That dudebro who only got a job here because his uncle worked there didn't deserve to have his guts splayed out before him.
You can't hear the slightly creepy janitor crying, but there's a trail of thickening blood leading to the supply closet.
The route leads to stairs heading up, you can hear the security guards and COO neighing above.
>>643625
Just the door they left through. This is a house, not a hotel by the sounds of it. You can hear people enjoying their lives outside.
An Auto-Cart can be heard starting up.

You get enough claw nicks on the rope to eventually cut it, after about a minute.
The house is empty, not even homeless people have claimed it. There's some cloth from the bed and a few unopened water bottles. The roof is easy enough to reach, but the sun's location makes it clear that it's way into the afternoon.
>>643628
It's on the way to the roof. Opening the door reveals the hunched over janitor, slightly wimpering.
There are numerous bleding holes visible on his once pristine white fur.

This is a poor neighborhood that you look down on. Some kids can be seen running through houses, some warning signs not keeping them away, as they hit the walls and fences with a few pipes. There are few lights out here, it would almost be peaceful and nice if it weren't for the open air sewage treatment plant down a few blocks.
If you were trying to find your hit and runners and chokers, looks like they have a choice of several straight roads out here.

If the Flying Cart was here, you could use it, but the SMG wielding security guards might object. They point their weapons at you as an out of shape Unicorn yells the first things that come to his head.
"Who are you, and where is the freaking Pegasus team we pay top bits too? I have half a mind to fire them!"
A Diamond Dog Secretary tries to calm him down to no avail.

The smog can be tolerated, but the sewage plant's smell penetrate every pore of your body. Even for a trained killer, certain things will get through.
You do find several cars that match the sound you would have been hearing.
A large truck with what seems like a family in it. All manner of boxes block the inside of the dented machine.
A van-Cart with a Unicorn next to it that resembles the shotgun user, but the rest of the windows are tinted, and he's arguing outside with another cart user.
A heavier Cart with a lot of dings and a paw sticking out of the windows.
Which will you investigate?
>>643725
The COO goes off in a tirade, and the Dog approaches you after signaling for the three security guards to stop aiming at you.
"We've got no medic, but I can give you my sweater." She begins to hyperventilate, but puts a paw on her mouth. "Keep him covered, and we'll get on the cart when it lands."
She starts using her clothes to try and bandage the barely breathing Janitor under the harsh flood lights. Then her leg separates itself from her body and she falls over.
*BANG!*

So, I've finally got the cash to pay my bills this month, but in return I've gotta change my look. Again.
At least working at retail's got some benefits for this: I've got ten different sets of clothing styles I can shift into.
What would be a good style? Goth-girl? Nah, I hate being debbie-downer all the time; my job's depressing enough, I don't need to go full emo.
Cow-girl? Nah. I ain't got the accent or udders to pull that one off.
…Leather-jacket is really old-school biker, but at least it's got some sort of class to it. Maybe I've got other options buried away?

Bits and pieces of the roof come flying off as the sniper keeps shooting.

You'll need something to cover your prosthetics. It's a dead give away if those guards ever pay your area a visit, but you'll need something that can deal with the rain. You've got plenty of jackets and sweaters in your closet, and bags can cover you up and your stuff.
But you didn't forget about your promise, did you?

Eh, fuck him. We've got an arrangement of sorts: he don't bitch about me disappearing at odd hours now and then, and I don't bitch about being his self-charging power equipment. If things start falling behind, they can use the actual machines they're fucking supposed to.
It's an apartment, remember? Not really a 'house' to speak of. Not allowed to do much customization to it's appearance on the outside, so I've always left it plain.
Still, I should dye my mane a different color; Purple should work. It's all the rage for teens to dye their manes colors that don't fit, so I'd blend right in…
Wait, nah, bleach it instead. I need to look like someone I'm not, so the professional look is better. …At least, a lazy professional look.

The Cart takes off into the air, your only way out of here. It seems almost elegant the way it flies off while you eat the cement roof. Then it falls and all goes quiet.

"As much as it pains me to say it, but I'm almost glad that executive who took the building money died when it collapsed."

Your Com-Link starts beeping with two new messages. One from your regular boss, and another from one of the construction guys who has you lift heavy things for him.
>>645443
"I'd rather die than dishonor myself. Go ahead and have your fun."
"But before you do, tell me. Did he scream, or was it fast?"
>>645444
Play the one from my regular boss first. Might as well get the scolding out of the way so I can focus on the construction guy's offer.

I stretch unphased by him, tapping his nose with a claw.
"Hey, No need to be so dramatic. I'm sure the guys you work for don't care for your neighponese honor."

"Oy, Sheeva, it's me, Cunic. Hey, I know it's short notice, but could I get you to help me out over here at the 'Yard? I, uh, need your physical, uhm, abilities for a task. Seriously, how am I supposed to ask about that. Anywho, give me a hoot when you can. Preferably soon."
>>645446
"And what would you know about 'honor'? You're just another disposable criminal who does work for money."

"Ugh Fuck! Seam go see what is going on outside!"

I roll my eyes a little.
"Yea, I wish I could say I do that. I'm unemployed at the moment, thanks to these guys. Its a bit of a pain in the ass to be honest with you.
And even if I do get a new job, I'll have to start completely fresh, get all the shitty assignments, the ones that involve sitting in the smog and sun for hours.."

His breathing is becoming more stable. He was gulping in air before, but he's calming down as he looks at you.
"Miss Lamancha is walking funny towards the ambulance!" Seam yells back.

Since when do I work in Resources? I'm not licensed to train anyone in the first place! I've been trying to show the new guy the ropes, but he won't listen for shit because "you're not my manager, I'm just here to do my job," blah blah fucking blah…
How good does this construction guy usually pay?

He only pays enough to maintain your body and a decent enough chunk on top. His main selling point for you, is that he treats you well. He's in deep trouble if he's calling you.

"It won't matter to you. If you just leave the city now, I'll ask them to make your deaths quick. If you don't you'll face their wrath."

Now. Who do you work for?"

You know that saying about spoons, vinegar, and sugar?
Retail always has something going wrong, and they always have people and money to fix it with. I'm headed over to the yard to help Cunic out.

"Right. You're still randomly guessing at who I am, for some reason. But we took all your things, so you can't be recording this.
And you should have blown yourself up by now I'm guessing. So that family you want to die for things you're dead.
I don't get it. Why keep trying to help them, they clearly aren't coming back… I know a bit about being left alone too. In case you were wondering that. "

It's a bit of a hassle to get to the Yard he's working at, but the reason you'd work for him quickly shows itself. The poor Owl Gryphon is practically bathing in sweat.
"Sheeva, so glad to see you! Can I offer you some water? Some, err, oil? Is that okay? Anyways, I need your help! Some hooligans trashed my machines, and you're the only one who can get here fast enough to help me move forward! Please tell me you'll do it! I'll pay double!"

My boss at the mart won't be happy about this… Eh, he's always cranky anyway. Take a break while I see what I can do."
All right, what's wrong with his machines?

He throws himself at your hooves.

An Assassin like you knows a bit about them. They're a foreign gang, just another collection of criminals and killers looking to make a buck under the guise of honor.
Roll a d10 to try and recall specific things.

Your old corporation had a grudge with them, since they worked for the competition. They'd kidnap workers and sneak supplies around. You've popped a few of them and their underlings.
Except you also know they often did dispicable side jobs along the way. Supplies would be brought alongside smuggled slaves, kidnapped workers would often be drugged with narcotics they massed produced. These guys had turned crime into a business.

Because it is heavy, hard, outdoor work. Your gears and muscles stress themselves to open up the vehicles. They didn't make it easy for anyone to open them. Several port-a-potty Cunic wanted you to move tipped over and leaked out. Some of the regular tools have been stolen. The thick fog rolls in, messing upi your hair and machine parts. Then you hear Cunic.
"No, it can't be you! Why, why, I haven't done anything wrong enough to deserve this!"

The Donkey paramedic, who looks like she hit a bottle of gin earlier and it fought back, replies: "Just another case of not drinking enough water. An IV should get her back and running in no time." She says disinterested.
And then Lamancha starts throwing up and screaming.

"You missed one there." I nod toward her leg. "You've still got one of the screws," I clarify, since she probably can't see it.

"Oh? Ahh… AAHH!" Where does it go!? I forgot!" Her legs open up in surprise and she almost falls over as her front legs stop supporting her.
"Uhm, yeah, I'll check it again…"
She tries moving that screw all over the engine compartment, but you eventually hear it whirring into place.
"Thanks, now we can work on the other one! By the way, my name is Sella!"

Stare at her innocence for a long moment.
"I'm an assassin. I was engineered to do it. That's what they told me. They told me that they made me for it, and that It was expensive.
Then the company went down, and they forgot about me. Not really their fault, since I was a ghost and completely off the record."
Spread my wings and fly off slowly so she can keep up.

"But why do you look like me? Or is it supposed to be I look like you?"
She shakes her head around and covers her eye for a moment as she flies, then looks straight ahead and tries to fly fast.
"I'm not a copy. I'm real. I'm not a copy…"

"Yeah, I'm sure we'll find my birth certificate. Or a family picture."
And you arrive at the checkpoint. While a crippled Assassin like you might be able to sneak in, your living portrait doesn't seem to have received the same training. How will you get through this?
>>645507
Cunic comes around every so often, his mood lightening up since the machines are getting fixed, though both of you find bolts and screws in Sella's legs and even mane.
Roll 3d10 for your overall condition after this.

She seems to gain some pep in her steps as she starts building an elaborate story in her head. As for you, they seem to have doubled up on guard duty tonight.
There's a few gaps between the lights at least, and you could try picking some locks to other gates around the checkpoint.

"Oh hey, that one is messed up too."
>All physical actions gain a +1 until further notice.
"So flex that leg now." She commands.

She's glowing with pride as she fixes her glasses.
Then her leg pops open and she pokes herself in the face.
"They work! They work!!" Cunic cries out in joy. "And you, you have redeemed yourself!" He shouts out as he yells out and hugs Sella. "For you, as agreed." Cunic brings over a Cred-Stick with the agreed on fee.

He grovels in happiness again before being pulled away by a Com-Link call.

Open Seam quickly retrieves your kit, having been on the receiving end of it before. You've got a few tranquilizers on hoof, though nothing as strong as what they were giving him in the hospital. The ambulance sirens start blaring, added to the noise with the screams.

You can feel his magic touching the bottom of your leg. He always starts there.
"Ah, Hawknia, such a pleasent surprise to see you." He doesn't even try hiding his horn glow. "Back from your shift alre-."

Just a little more detailed than what was told to you. A few weeks ago, some of the flammable supplies brought to the building exploded. Since the facility's construction and maintenance money was stolen by the CFO and others in the company, it collapsed, killing most of the employees there.
The company was bought out by a conglomerate, efectively eviscerated by multi-nationals. The lions share went to Raiku, its mentioned.

He helps carry you to the other side of the checkpoint, barking orders into his mike. He hoofs you off to a medical Pegasus.
"You're in good hooves now, okay. Just relax." He gives you a wink and trots off.
"So, where did he touch you?" She asks non-chalantly as she starts checking out your leg.

"I usually try to hide a bite or two during the night shift, but you'll need it more than I will. You can eat it on the Mana-Cart. You'll be home in no time. Get some sleep."

Eh, why not get a decent-sized meal for myself? I've earned it.

"..and Then I spotted an oversized trashbag on the side of the road, not regulation, and it has these pipes sticking out of it. It was a bomb, and it was going to hurt a lot of people. I tried to disarm it, but I'm a little out of practice so it went wrong, It broke open, I was covered in shit, and I had to think quickly, I dug down to the sewer and pushed the bomb in so it couldn't activate.. then it all went black. I was captured by the dog and her unicorn friend. They questioned me for a little bit, but they clearly didn't know what they were doing.. Left me alone and I escaped easily, and followed them. That's when I met you."

When the obviously mal-maintained Mana-Cart pulls up, a small but chunky Gryphon honks the horn.
"Haha, you are my cousin's mechanical friend, no? I am Whitne-yi, a pleasure to make your friendship!"

"Yea, that did happen, he got into a fight with.. what was her name.. Iris? He was always hitting on her, I wish I had seen it actually happen, would have been satisfying, but I heard she bucked him with both her back hooves and he only dodged one."

"Call me Vee-Vee," I answer, climbing in on the passenger's side.
"Let's get these delivered."

I frown and stop reminiscing.
"How could you remember that place? It wasn't even a real school.. I mean we really learned things, but.."

"Hah, Cousin is always working hard and he must have a good eye for others like him. That means we'll be taking it easy in no time! Now, I need a guard, but I don't need a guard, exactly. Company doesn't want to spend for one, and I can outfly even Wonderbolt, but the papers here, they weigh a ton. Drop it on a Dragon and, POOF, dead dragon! Just, the city can be troublesome, like a lady. Nice and stable, then you are on the floor being kicked around because you had another girl on the side."
"Now, enough chat, let us get our work done so I can bill the Company while we nap."
Roll four d10s on this case.

"But, I can't remember anything else. That's the thing. I should have a memory of what I did after school. Who had their parents come pick them up. A book report! Some homework! That was it, that's all I remember! Just some snippet of your life. Where is mine?"

"Oi, I heard you talking about me!"
"Yeah, like I wouldn't find out what you did!"
"Yea, you're not even worth a chip in that kids lunchbag!"
Your route just became a battlefield of fistihoofs! Get Rhodon out of there!

I should but I can't just run away with him… Can I?
"Excuse me? What the hell are you talking about?" I try to feign confusion, although I honestly don't know what they are talking about… I don't remember talking shit about anyone…
Also make sure to stay in front of Rhodon, if they try anything with him, they'll have to get through me

"..Um.. Do you remember.. Golden Beak? I used to sneak out and see him, he was a baker, I met him when I was 15, doing some scouting practice at the market, I slipped on mud and he helped me up. I didn't tell anyone about that, because we were supposed to be perfect in the field, and went back that night to make sure he wouldn't tell.. and I saw him prepping the next day's sign for the bakery.
Four years we dated in secret."

He pops mints and candies into his beak on the way to the first delivery, just a few minutes away. He nearly rear ends some poor schmuck.
Roll to spot.

The dialogue was between the gangers.
Several bottles are thrown around you, aiming for the delinquents! Move, try to get Rhodon out safely with a three d10 roll! Try to keep Rhodon safe in this orgy of violence!
>>645946
He seems unable to drive in a straight line and even bumps onto the sidewalk.

"I have a degree, and there was a boyfriend there. I think, I'm sure."
She stops.

This is your usual route to your job in your neighborhood. You know the shortcuts, or at least the more secured areas. With a little stealth, you managed to make it out with nothing but an energy drank and beer bath from the thrown bottles.
Once you're both safe, Rhodon is left speechless as he walks around you, occasionally looking up before walking around you again.
"THAT WAS SO COOL! Does it happen every DAY?!"

"…Oh fuck no. Tell me you are not driving drunk."
So he's that kind of untrustworthy…
"If you wreck this thing with me in it, I'm going to bust your face in so hard even you're momma won't recognize you."

I slide her a tissue box. "Wanna go to my job tomorrow or just lay low here?"

"That was anything but cool! And yeah… This has been happening almost every day for crying out loud… Ugh, so much for that morning shower…" I feel particularly grossed and uncomfortable at the liquids staining me

Too late, the Mana-Cart beats you to it as he falls down, fortunately letting go of the accelerator.
"Bah, you worry like Cunic. Just worry, worry, worry."
You can hear his Com-Link going off, and a Pony in a suit is approaching at a canter.
>>645959
"I don't know…" She says as she snatches the kleenex. "I just want things to stop moving away."
>>645961
Rhodon's face is a bevy of expressions, communicating with hoots and hollers the rest of the way.
The clinic is near, and Rhodon starts to calm down. There's a line of sick Equestrians in the lobby as you go inside.

"Well.. Then just stay here until we can sort out who's after you- or me, and why. But.. first get a shower, you have sweat and blood all over you, and I don't want that on my sheets."

"Oh goody…"
I reach over and make sure the mana-cart is fully parked before hopping down, making a point of landing on top of the drugged-up cousin before walking to meet the suited pony.
"Evening there. Sorry about the wait."

"You're right. It's what I need."
She manages to deal with your less than ideal sized shower, even lingering in it for a while.
"This shampoo, doesn't it leave your feathers dry?"
>>645969

It's a straight laced blue pony who offers you a proper bow of respect before breaking into a fit of laughter.
"Please, make sure you step on him when you get back on the cart. Maybe you'll shove some sense into not taking advantage of people."
"I'm Pottok, one of the people you're here to deliver to. There should be a paper there with my name on it. Sorry about all this."
A snapping sound can be heard coming from a building under construction and some yelling from the workers. The pony in front of you just looks frustrated.
"I'm sorry for all this, I really am." Pottok says, holding back tears.

MORE LINE.
The elderly, the infirm, and children who have no where else to go. Rhodon pulls up his hoodie, but he can't help but look at all the unfortunates in the line.
"Who is this little cutie?" Belgy asks, the Diamond Dog with front counter duty today.

"You've felt my feathers, soft as a kitten in winter." I call back and giggle softly.
In the meantime I'll warm up some noodles in a cup for a bit of food, I've been so hungry.
