Midnight Scribbler

@@SilverHeart,

 

Scribbler was happy she hadn't been scared off yet, although he hadn't thought of how he would respond to a question like this. "I.. I suppose I.. I like you, Mirror.. I thought it would be a practical gift for somepony who uses magic." He was stumbling over his thoughts, and could feel his cheeks heating up. He was finding it more difficult to think now that she seemed to be more wary of him for some reason. He felt like running the other way, but something kept him there, that suspicious glint in her eye caught him like a net. He couldn't turn away, but he feared messing things up at the same time. The blatant truth began to shine through in his mind. He did feel something more for Mirror than just friendship, and he couldn't ignore it now, even though he was nearly convinced it wasn't mutual by her reaction. "Please forgive me... I.. feel foolish." He turned his head to look away for a moment, gazing into shop windows as they passed. This wasn't at all how he'd hoped things would go, but then he wasn't sure what he was truly expecting to begin with.

(OOC: Short post that should have been much better is incoming.)

 

If Mirror was torn before, she didn't know what she was now. A few minutes ago and she would probably have been happy to hear that. However, his gift:..was a little too tailored for her needs. The more she thought about it the more likely it seemed he knew. She didn't want that.

 

In his defense he did seem genuine...Deciding to play along she answered him by pulling him into a hug but choosing not to say anything.

 

(Edit: My phone autocorrected incoming to uncomfortable.)

@@SilverHeart,

 

Scribbler was caught off guard once again, the last response he'd expected was this embrace. It startled him at first, but he melted at the thought of it, and returned the hug. His heart felt warm, were it a cup, it would be overflowing with the emotion that flowed into it at this moment. He said nothing at first, and merely took the moment in. A smile broke through on his face, he couldn't remember the last time he'd felt such happiness. He spoke quietly, over Mirror's shoulder, nuzzling her mane gently. "I'm happy you liked it.. I was afraid you didn't for a moment."

@@Frosty V,@, @@Midnight Scribbler, @@Commander Tangent, @Anypony I may have missed.

 

Blast & Eclipse

Blast smiled at Frost and nodded to him. He then turned to Crimson.

"Hey, Crimson. It's been awhile." He said to Crimson. He then looked over to see Icarus there. The random stallion from earlier? They might as well set up a booth that allows ponies to sign up for this group. It seemed like they were taking anypony under their wing at this point. But, one particular pony caught his eye; Clockwork. He then turned to Eclipse and tapped his shoulder. 

"Who exactly is that guy?" Blast asked his much older frienemy. Eclipse looked up from his drink to Blast.

"His name is Clockwork Green. Specializes in the technology fields." Eclipse stated. "One thing he specializes in is creating ways for EARTH PONIES to use magic and flight." Eclipse finished, returning to his drink.

Blast was suddenly very enthusiastic. A stallion that can create ways for earth ponies to fly and use magic? That sounded absolutely incredible!

Icarus leaned in towards Clockwork.

"It seems that you have new customers" Icarus said with a small laugh. 

It's good that he gets the attention, I'd  rather not have to explain the mask and all that again.

 

Icarus raised his hooves, and ever so carefully removed his mask. He moved his body away from the group so they could hopefully not see his face, and he sucked down his glass of water.

"Of course I like it. It's wonderful. Thank you so much!" Mirror said sweetly, as she returned the nuzzle. With her face hidden from his view her expression was emotionless. Stallions were easy to fool, all she had to do was toy with him a little bit. Eventually he would slip up and she would know everything he knew. Then she would deal with him accordingly. After a few more seconds she broke the embrace. Smiling at him, "We should probably get moving. The area we are staying in isn't that safe too late at night." When she turned around she made a point to tickle his nose with her tail before walking down the street. The shop was just around the corner.

@@SilverHeart,

 

Scribbler smiled back, gazing into Mirror's eyes for a moment. Feeling satisfied with how things had gone, though he couldn't shake an instinctual feeling there was something she wasn't telling him. When she turned to move along again, her tail brushed his nose, leaving her scent in his nostrils. He was flustered at first, then grinned, feeling as though he'd maybe earned a bit of trust. He trotted off after her, catching up, and kept pace beside her. "You're right, but then, I think, between the two of us. We stand a good chance against most ponies in this city. You alone could fool them into going the other way, I doubt I'd even need to help you. Not that I wouldn't of course." He chuckled. "Even if they managed to see through your illusions, they'd have trouble breaking my barriers.. We could make an excellent team, you and I." They walked a bit further and rounded the corner. The shop was now in sight, and Scribbler felt a question boiling up from deep down. He wanted to know Mirror in ways he couldn't express yet, but this was his first thought. He looked to her, his smile replaced with a more questioning look, he sounded genuine in his words when he asked. "Mirror, do.. Do you trust me?" He gazed directly into her eyes, looking for any sign of doubt, slightly fearful in what she'd respond with. He knew it was quite early to ask this sort of thing. However, her little gesture before had given him some form of hope for the answer to this question.

 

Clockwork Green

Clockwork chuckled, looking up at the newcomer. "Yes, that is correct. Creator of the first artificial implanted wings, and, the magitech battery. Combined with my caster device, it can conjure up some interesting abilities. Unfortunately it's still in the prototype stage, I still need a unicorn to recharge the battery, but.. It's getting there. I'm hoping to find a way to generate my own magic one day, with the right technology, I believe it will be possible." Clockwork noted that Icarus had turned away before drinking, but said nothing. He turned back to face Eclipse and the others. "I may require some assistance out there once we're on the journey, if I run out of energy, could I bother you to assist me with your magic, Eclipse?" He gave a friendly smile. "Normally, I would ask my assistant, Nova Strings, for this favour, but.. Unfortunately, she's been missing for some time, so I can't call upon her abilities."

"I think all of us Unicorns can help you with that" Icarus said to Clockwork, taping the slight extrusion in his hood were his horn was.

 

He finished his drink, and slipped his mask back on,and made sure it was secure, befor turning to the group to listen to the conversation.

Frost Typhoon

 

Frost sat quietly and listened to the conversation around him, taking in every detail and being sure to look everypony over. The one with mask caught is attention the most. He watched as the pony stood up and stepped away to raise his mask, take a drink, then return to his seat. Then there was the pony who was apparently making it possible for earth ponies to have the same abilities as the pegasus, and unicorn. These ponies seem like the adventuring type...who knows maybe joining them would be a good idea, and it might not be. he thought to himself, staring down at the table.

Sorry for my clear lack of posting this weekend: I've not been well, and whenever I got around to to this RPO I would get halfway though a post before losing patience with myself. Still not really better, but I'm motivated enough to go again!
 
In other new: I'm shortly going to timeskip forward for everyone other than Orions group shortly. Be aware!


 
Kingfisher.
 
The sword was lighter than it had been when she first took ownership of it. Dark-iron, faded not only with age but where it had dulled and repeatedly sharpened - thinning and gradually becoming more and more brittle with age: each stroke of the stone against its blade restoring its dulled edge in exchange for a few precious days of it's life that it would never get back.
 
She never really thought about the time she had spent trying to change herself - never really considered the time that she wasn't going to get back. It was always about getting better, keeping her edge and being as good as she could possibly be. But at what price? Until recently she had exactly one friend. The best she could ask for - there was no question there - and a good number of ponies she knew and found agreeable, but only one true companion.
 
She couldn't get that time back - it had been used to keep her edge. She could, however, change things from now on.
 
Placing the adequately sharpened blade by the foot of the bed, she lay down - removing the carry harness for the first time in... she couldn't even remember. It must have been a long time - her coat refused to fall back into shape: the lines clearly visible where it had been flattened beneath the straps. She snorted, stretched out and allowed herself to drift off into an adequate sleep.

Orion Starsinger and Kricket.

"Zintiik?" Orion asked with mixed emotion: certainly it was good that the Changeling had found the magical creature but... even now, here he was trying to intrude on the first moment that Orion had to spend time alone with his sister since... since...

 

 

He turned his head to look at the overjoyed mare - sighing silently and rolling his eyes while her back was turned. He still didn't like how close the Changeling was getting - an emotion feeder, scratching around his family - he might not be the god he once was, but he wouldn't think twice about defending her should he need to. Ancients forbid, she might be well intentioned but there was no denying her naivety - she probably wouldn't even know the danger until it was too late.

"... Thank you. Willow was concerned, I'm glad it was in safe hooves." He said stiffly.

"Arnk-oo!" Mimicked the Aspect from the Changing Creatures head, much to its amusement. It was enjoying sounds - the ones the ponies made were always so different to the ones he knew and even though he couldn't quite get them right, it was enjoyable to try.

 

Orion stared, a little dumbfounded to listen the the Aspect mirror his thanks. He shook his head to clear it of suprise and looked back to Willow.

 

"Willow, we should still be heading back - it's getting late and I really don't think that the streets are safe at night. I dont want you getting hurt."

Zintiik

 

@,

Zintiik used one hoof to rub at the back of his mane, completely caught off guard by Willow's reaction and obviously unsure of how to react.  After how she had told him to get away before, this was the last thing he had expected.  "Er, well...  To be fair, it found me.  I really didn't do anything."

 

He lets his gaze drift towards Kricket and huffs, trying to keep up the image that he didn't like the little aspect.  "I wanted it out of my mane...  Since it belongs to you, I didn't have any choice other than to bring it back.  So long as you keep its teeth away from me, consider us even."  The changeling in the guise of the pegasus looks at Orion and tries to give the stallion a friendly smile.

 

"Sorry for interrupting...  I'll catch up with you later, I guess?"  Carefully stepping away from Willow's hug he smiles at both of the siblings before spreading his wings.  "We're in the city, after all...  I should use the opportunity to feed as much as I can, hehe...  Unless you need me for anything, I mean."

 

Zintiik was quite thoroughly confused by everything that had happened.  While he was glad that Willow didn't seem mad at him anymore, he still didn't know why she had been upset in the first place...  Then there was still the issue of Orion acting strangely towards him.  Things were so much simpler in the hive...  It would be easier if I could just hear their thoughts like I could with other changelings!

Mirror cocked her head in honest confusion, unless she had done something wrong, she shouldn't have given that kind of impression. "What a silly question, of course I trust you." She turned around and walked up to the door. Mirror stopped just before opening it. "Now would you be a dear and wait out here please? I'll only be a few minutes."

Eclipse

Eclipse simply shrugged at Clockwork's sentence.

"Well, that depends on what kind of magic you need." Eclipse said, taking another sip of whiskey. "I specialize in psychic magic and spells. I can do things like pick up and manipulate objects to my will and clear certain barricades with a psychic push. I'll see what I can accomplish, though."

Blast

Blast eyeballed Icarus, specifically his mask and getup of all things. They were definitely out-of-the-ordinary. Perhaps he was a witch doctor of a sort, again, judging just by his attire.

Clockwork finished off his glass of wine, and corked the bottle. He stuffed it into his saddlebag, the glass clinking against other things already in there. "Well, if you can, just unfocussed magical energy works best. All I need is the raw energy to charge the battery, there's no need to focus a purpose into it really. That may upset the delicate chemistry within the battery it's self." He glanced to the group as he got up. "Well, it's been a pleasure meeting you all.. But alas, we have an early start tomorrow. I should be on my way. What time are we meeting tomorrow morning? I'll set my watch to it, and meet you at the station."

Clockwork noticed he'd been getting a lot of suspicious looks from most of the group already. He knew he had to play his cards right here in order to keep in their good books. It wasn't his interest to cross them. There wasn't anything to be gained from it.

 

Midnight Scribbler

@@SilverHeart,

 

Scribbler smiled at her response, but he felt somehow, that this wasn't her true stance with him yet. It was too soon. She was such a secretive mare, that something didn't seem right. He kept this thought, but pushed it aside. For now, he was still struck with Cupid's arrow at the tail swish, and the sweet scent she'd left with him moments ago. He sat down by the entrance, and nodded. "Of course, I'll be here." He said, and waited for her to enter the store before he began rummaging through his pack for something. "Now where did I put them?" He pulled out a small sack, containing his enchantment marbles. He counted them for the third time since he'd used them to make the pendant. "Enough for four more.. Good. I won't have to spend much more then." He thought, replacing them into the saddlebag.

"Is there a reason you are staring at me like that?" Icarus inquired, giving the red pony an odd look.

 

Why did I see this coming, I wonder what has him eyeballing me like that... probably the same reason as everyone else.

@,

 

Orion watched the Changeling for a moment as they departed. He didn't know what he was going to do - she was right, of course. They were friends - still were... sort of.

 

@,

 

"It's... hard to explain." He said. Hard to explain? It was hard enough for him to understand himself - how was he supposed to explain to her? "I trust Zintiik. We were, we are friends. It's just..."

 

Of all the things he took for granted when he had the power of the Litany, one ability he missed most was being able to let Legion explain things for him.

 

"He's a Changeling..."

 

"Angin!" Echoed Kricket.

 

"...an emotion drinker, a vampire. I like Zintiik, I really do but I promised to keep you safe. I've seen how he looks at you..."

 

Well hadn't tonight worked out well? Quality time with Willow: ruined. Just perfect...

(OOC: it's odd writing a post where no one is going to be tagged.)

Mirror closed the door behind her, satisfied that Scribbler had complied and was staying outside. Without any pony around her this would be much easier to pull off. From somewhere near the read of the shop, the sound of hammer hitting steel could be heard. She took a moment to look at her surrounding, the shop was, somehow, doing even better for itself now. There were dozens of suits of armor for tens of thousands of bits each. Ornate weapons, both foreign and familiar, lined the walls behind glass cases. Mirror cast a series of spells on herself. She checked her reflection in one of the glass cases, in her place stood an older mare with an orange cost and green mane.

Mirror walked up to the desk and rung the service bell. The hammering stopped and a few moments later a large brown stallion appeared through the doorway. "Hello Madam, welcome to the finest unicorn smithy in all of Equestria. How my I help you today?" He said with a practiced smile.

"Hello sir, I'm looking to buy a gift for my husband. He's retiring soon and I thought I'd buy him a dagger and a single edged short sword as a present. Only the finest will do, so I expect only your most expensive wares. Price isn't an issue."

The stallions smile suddenly seemed much more genuine. "Of course, madam. I'll be back in just a moment." Without waiting for a response the smith rushed to the back. After about a minute had passed he returned carrying what Mirror presumed to be two weapons bundled in cloth. Laying them before her the stallion unwrapped the shorter of the two, revealing a dagger several hooves in length. The steel was a deep blue and the wood was nearly black. A series of pictures showed Celestia raising the Sun before playing with Luna for the entirety of the day. About halfway down the blade it showed Luna raising the Moon before continuing to play with Celestia throughout the night. It didn't sit well with Mirror that something so innocent and naive would be found on something created to kill. "Now this is a roundel dagger, however as I'm sure you noticed it is the pinnacle of its kind. We forged it with only the finest steel, which has been 'blued' for protection against rust. It has the signature 'T' shape to provide reinforcement for the blade. The 'T' shape also has the added benefit of creating wounds that are not easily stitched back together and can only be healed with magic or by the finest of surgeons. The handle is made from an Ebony tree that is prized for its strength and durability in the homeland of the Zebra's. The designs were hoof-carved and acid-etched by the finest artisans in Canterlot. This dagger is the pride of my life's work. I've been planning it since I first began my apprenticeship as a smith. I'll sell it for no less than fourteen thousand bits." 

 

Had this been Mirror's first time in the shop she would have been shocked, however she had done this a few times over the years. Always coming to get revenge on the stallion but never going through with it. The fact that he had always seemed so happy and guilt-free was the part that angered her the most. She doubted that he would even remember her. However just in case he would, she always changed at least her coat and mane color. "Oh, it's lovely. I think he will enjoy it very much. Now what's this next one?" Mirror said as she glanced at the cloth wrapped item.

 

"Wonderful! Well ma'am this one isn't as glorious as the dagger but it is quite exotic." He said as he pulled the cloth back from the sword. Revealing a short sword about the length of her foreleg. It had a dark steel curved blade.  "Now Ma'am this is all the way from Saddle Arabia. It's a style of blade that is quite rare here in Equestria. Although it is starting to become more popular among the nolbes. So far only a handful have been bought. If you get this for your husband he will be a trend setter. Now, ignoring how fashionable the blade is, it has an Antiqued steel blade, worked and painted brass fittings, and a thick full scale buffalo horn grip. Now in fairness, this blade was created when the Saddle Arabians were at war with the buffalo tribes. Just like the dagger it has a small T-shaped spine to reinforce the blade. Because of its...questionable materials I'll sell this to you at a thirty percent discount for thirteen thousand bits. Which will bring up your bill to....twenty-seven thousand bits, excluding tax."

 

Mirror leaned in to examine the grip of the blade. If he hadn't told her that it was buffalo horn she never would have guessed. It didn't sit well with her but...she didn't really care about the weapons. They were just an added bonus. "Hm....I guess I'll take it too....If you don't mind, walking with me to my carriage I can pay you there., I thought this would take longer so I dismissed my servants to let them take a break. A strong stallion like you though shouldn't have any problem bringing my chests inside." Mirror said as she gesture for him to follow her.

 

"Of course, I'd be more than glad to help you with that." The smith said as he followed behind her.

 

Mirror smiled at him as they walked towards the door. It's now or never. If you don't do this now, you'll always be a coward. Mirror stopped right as he neared a stand of a dozen large pole arms. "Oh, just one more thing, dear." Mirror's horn lit up as she pulled the display down on top of the stallion. Mirror could hear the sound of some of his bones breaking among the clattering of the steel. The crash was probably loud enough to be heard outside, considering that it had drowned out any noise he had made. Mirror took a closer look at the stallion. It was hard to tell if he had just been knocked unconscious or had died. It didn't really matter to Mirror. She knew she should feel terrible but for now she was pretty happy. She levitated the two weapons over from the counter, along with a harness for the two before turning around and walking out the door. She dropped her illusion before looking down at Scribbler.

"Are you ready to go?" She genuinely smiled at him.

Willow was silent for a few minutes. "Orion, I know that he won't feed off of me. He didn't yet, anyway.." Willow looked at the ground. "Look, I know that he spoiled the only time we had together in months. Years, even. We're going to have more time like this later, right? Besides, it wasn't entirely his fault we can't spend time together. It was my fault that I wanted to find Kricket so badly.." Willow smiled, patting the Aspect in her mane.


 


"We have plenty of time in Canterlot before we search for the Litany again. I want to spend time with you, too. I would give so much just to play a game of catch with you again." Willow hugged her brother tightly before trotting into the hotel they were staying in.


 


"Just not now."

Zintiik

 

The changeling may have still been confused about earlier, but he pushed that to the back of his mind for now...  He had meant what he had said, and he was going to feed as much as possible before they had to leave Canterlot.  It wouldn't do for him to pass out on the road like he had last time - ideally he was going to save up enough energy to last him the journey until they made it to another town where he could feed.

 

As he flew over the buildings as Tactic, a glint of gold caught his eye.  He stopped to watch as a guard walked by obliviously under him, an old stallion on his way home from the barracks.  Zintiik grinned and slowly lowered himself to the ground, following the guard at a casual pace.  Ever since his hive had invaded Canterlot, Zintiik found a particular pleasure for feeding off of the Guard and their loved ones.  A particularly nasty mare in a suit of guard's armour had fought off him and a group of his siblings to protect some small fillies and colts during the invasion...  If he hadn't been able to change the shape of his own body, he probably would have still had scars from that encounter.  

 

The old stallion seemed distracted by something as Zintiik steadily came closer.  He could hear him muttering under his breath, something about brash recruits, a wild goose chase, it really didn't matter to him...  Distracted was good.  He steadily comes up alongside the old guard, as though simply passing the older stallion along the street.  One advantage of using Tactic Wind in a situation like this was the boring pegasus was very rarely noticed...  Until it was too late, anyways.

 

As they walked past the mouth of an alley, Zintiik glanced around to see if anypony was watching before tackling the guard into the darkened space.  It was over quickly - pulling the guard's helmet off one with one movement and headbutting him with the other.  Zintiik was left dizzy for the effort, but it had worked.  The old stallion was left unconscious.

 

"Alright, let's see what you left me to work with..."  He drags the unconscious guard further down the alley before looking through the stallion's belongings, grinning wickedly as he finds some photos of what he has to assume is a wife and an address of what he hopes is the stallion's home.  Using the straps from the guard's own armour, Zintiik leaves the stallion tied up before changing himself into an exact replica of the old guard.

 

He leaves the alley and starts trotting off in the direction the stallion had been going, looking for the address.  He was lucky the stallion had been married - he was going to feed well this time.

I heard some awful din from inside, I was worried something had fallen on you." He looked her over, seeing nothing out of the ordinary, aside from two new weapons. "Those look nice."

"Oh, yes. I'm quite fine. A display did fall over as I was leaving but I'm sure they can handle it." She looked down as she buckled the harness onto her and equipped the two weapons. She felt like she was trying to look like somepony she wasn't...with a flash of her horn the weapons and harness disappeared from sight. "Ah they are quite nice, aren't they? I got a very lovely deal for them... But that's neither here not there. We should be on our way."

@@SilverHeart,

 

Scribbler nodded "You're right. I don't really think I need to go searching for that store right now anyways. It's not that important. We should get back to the Hotel soon..ish. We could take the scenic route and talk some more." He smiled at Mirror warmly. "Ive quite enjoyed getting to know you better."

Mirror nodded, it seemed odd that he'd change his mind. Well if she wanted to find out whether he knew of her scars she'd have to talk to him. It'd be better to get it over with. "Of course, I wouldn't mind taking the scenic route back. Lead on." She said as she gestured for him.

Blast

Blast waved to Clockwork Green as he left. He also saw Eclipse leaving, too. He's probably going back to his hotel room to rest up for tomorrow morning. But then, he heard Icarus' voice directed towards him. 

"Oh, no huge reason in particular." Blast said, a bit nervous. "It's just that... are you a witch doctor?"
