His armor's got scratches and slashes marks everywhere, most visible on the caparison, theres even one that seems not to be too wide but pretty deep, someone tried to stab through there pretty hard but the armor was able to deflect it.

Icy yelped a little as her lips stung. She rubbed her lips ruefully. "That'll remind me that you still have some bite left in you," Icy said wryly. "Sleep well, Fox." She planted a kiss on his cheek and hugged him. If there was nothing else, she would turn and leave, possibly speak with Hay Bale.

"Of course," Tyrol said, nuzzling her one final time before rolling off the bed.

Astra shakes her head a little. Man, I would not wanna be part of that. Once would be too many for me.

He glanced away busying himself with his thoughts, it was mildly amusing how so far, none of these recent days haven't been boring, something new was usually happening that stuffed his day with shenanigans.

"Good night my love," He tiredly smile watching her go, naturally lingering a bit on her flank, the usual. He turned around when she was gone and stared at the wall with broody eyes. Blargle.

So Juribean tapped her hooves as she waited. She didn't get Ember's offered of friendship but she would not turn it down. Being rid of House Gumdrop and by proxy House Skald and House Flamestrong would be a relief. She took order in her work but hatred being a pawn in the noble cold wars. Though she didn't know if she was placing herself in debt with Ember. Juribean wanted to go freelance, kill and bed whoever she pleased. A lot to ponder when changing clothes.
Eventually Sweet Victory appeared. "I have the pictures."

Staccata heads off to the bathroom to wash up a bit before heading out to collect these bits of information. Hopefully she can avoid any uncomfortable questions like who this information is from, or about.

Mach kind of notes the heavy armor, and wonders why this town attracts colts that always see too much combat for what's good for them. Given his past record of ensuring these ponies don't die, he might have to come back and have a word. For now though, he heads out of the civic center to let the tired newcomer sleep.

Ember looked them over out of curiosity. "Oh wow....you managed to salvage my picture taking skills." He chuckled.

Juribean sneaks up behind Ember and takes a peek of the pictures. "You have a knack at this. I look rather inviting in that one. Here. You can keep that last one." She points the only with the profile shot. Not the sexiest of the pictures, as those already had owners.

"I..uh...thank you Miss Juribean," He was a little awkward about it first but put on a warm smile. He looked at the photo, a photo that showed a pretty mare without totally objectifying her.

Juribean take her pictures and tucks them in her pants. "You're welcome... friend. See you later." And the assassin steps out the store in a crosslegged walk. She can't help it.

Right, couldn't help it, heh. Ember shyly looked away, such a...weird encounter, but, hey, in his mind, he made a new friend. Well, what a first day on the job and it wasn't even over.
"Thank ya again, for your help Miss Sweet Victory," He sighed a little with a small smile on his face. "Welp, how do ya think I did?"

Hay Bale cocked an eyebrow over her comically large sunglasses. You ain't gonna stay? She asked quietly to keep from disturbing Fox.

"We don't really know about her, 'cause we just found out about her a few days ago, but she hasn't been too troublesome! We've fixed up the initial damage, 'n we've still got a little less than three weeks to decide what to do about her before she destroys the town, so we're doin' pretty well, all things considered!" Blades paused briefly when their food arrived, then continued when the waiter left. "Anyway, we've got ponies readin' up on her, 'n we'll know what to do about her soon. 'N she's pretty good for a pony who smashed up my shop!"

Staccata returns about an hour later with takeout veggie-burgers and hayfries. Oh and the knowledge that yes, something incredibly Equestria-changing that nopony seems to have the specifics on is happening. Oh and she should be looking out for somepony that may or may not want her injured severely. The latter is just normal.
When she enters the room, the mare looks at the pile and comments, "Did I remember to get poison antidotes?"

Lemongrass blinked. "Dreamrunner?!"
"Is that the broad's name? Anyway, yeah. Whatever. I got to escort these troublemakers to the guard house." The earth pony strode past him, gesturing at his fellow guards to move the prisoners along. He gave the griffon a salute along the way.
Lemongrass, meanwhile, flew off to find Dreamrunner, knowing exactly where she had stayed before. He would go and knock on her door.
Dreamrunner
Lemongrass will hear crying before it stops.
A little bit later, Dreamrunner opens the door. Her eyes are red and puffy from crying.
"*sniffle* Hey Lemongrass...vhy don't you come in?"

Bruce trots up to Ember. "Well I have to order that camera. Once it is here, I can make us some bits."

Re: [FwM] As Equestria Turns:MLP Without the Kiddy Thread 9
Town Gates
Hey! What is with the prodigious immigration of wandering ponies to this particular territory in recent days...erm...day? 'Tis an unprecedented and most advantageous fluke, is it not? At least one other pony is trotting toward the guarded entrance of the quaint little town. She's a stunted (hence miniature) and...unique pony. She doesn't look anything like any of the stereotypical ponies of any cataloged species. While her front half, from the center of her underbelly to the end of her muzzle, is that of an earth pony (with the exception of her hooves which have been replaced with dragon claws and sharp teeth), her back half is that of an inexplicably scaled fire pony with a tail that has a great many military applications. The budding paranormal prodigy, Silver, briskly sashays up to the gates, humming a jaunty and carefree tune as she proceeds along her merry path. A robust ash (wooden) lance hangs at her side along with a set of bulky, overflowing saddlebags packed to the brim with heaps of rations and other miscellaneous supplies. She isn't paying much attention to the road in front of her, which is evident by the way her eyes are shut tight.
She is so engrossed in her own amateurish musical performance, in fact, that she may gently ram one of the gate guards headfirst unless stopped in time. Silly mare should keep better track of the environment surrounding her lest she jeopardize her chances at mental and physical prosperity!

Wha...then..why..why...was he even being allowed to sell and work the floor here? Quick easy labor from him. He shook his head clearing his mind of it.
