Re: [FWM] Backstage: CUT!
Emseralda was squealing and laughing too much to notice the crazed grin. Yep, she's definitely enjoying this.
Though one wonders what happened when they start running out of oxygen...
Good thing indeed! Without further prompting, Shell Shock kicked open the door to the bar and rushed for the counter. "Barkeep! Whiskey, the best you got!"
Icy laughed. Look liked she enjoyed it quite a bit. "Not bad at all. How long did you spend on this particular snippet, hmmm?" she asked.

Re: [FWM] Backstage: CUT!
Fortunately for them, that doesn't start happening till around 10,000 feet, and the robot was pressurized anyway. What, did you think someone would build a machine that could get that high WITHOUT making it survivable?
Hey, is it getting harder to breathe?
...Then again, it IS Wrench. The guy who decided to make the tracking device in the machine directable.
Oh wait, altitude. Lemme just slow it down a bit...

Re: [FWM] Backstage: CUT!
Sandy took off his scarf and hat, slipped the tiny vest over his slender frame, and donned a little round usher's cap. A little straightening here, a little tighter there, and the outfit fit him to a T. He turned on a hoof and stood at attention for Night Jewel and Miss Prompter's inspection. "How's it look? T'ain't too messy 'round th' middle, is it? I tried smoothin' it out as best as I could..." He gnawed his lip anxiously.

Re: [FWM] Backstage: CUT!
Tavern
"The general lack of nobles and their little games is one of the unexpected benefits of the town," Staccata adds before finishing off her tea. She's holding her tongue on how easy it is to distinguish booze-cider from regular just to see where this whole thing is going. (it's the foam)

"Huh! Thought for sure he'd end up in the magma there," Blades said, sounding a bit disappointed.
"Well, from what I hear, dyin' sure did him good. I don't know much 'sides what he did to Stellar 'n how he's friends with that other lil' filly, but he sounds better already. Lots of ponies get more likeable after ya put a few daggers in 'em."

Re: [FWM] Backstage: CUT!
Esmeralda found herself holding on to the console tight, panting a little as she tried to adjust for the thin air. "... Star... I think that's far enough..." she said, blinking to try and keep stars out of her vision.
"What!" Shell Shock banged on the counter. "How ken y'all call yerself a pub if ya dinnae serve whiskey?!"

"Right, Sorry." Lone Star said as the machine levelled off. "Need me to go lower?"
Lone Star will have perfect control over his voice next post because this format is getting ridiculous.

"Your kisses inspired me, with you as my muse, it just comes naturally," He cheesily grinned and gave her a smooch. It took him about the duration of their romantic pony kisses for him to think of that snippet.
"Indeed, I agree with the young miss here, it is rather fetching on you,"Prompter nodded with an approving nod.SpoilerPony Rp-Fox Trot Profile

Re: [FWM] Backstage: CUT!
(Moving post down here, because it works extra well with Benson's latest post)
"Aw shucks..." He pawed at the ground bashfully, flattered beyond measure. "Just so long as it don't look awful, I'm alright."
"A-anyhow, that's th' caps an' vests; anythin' else we need? Programs, flashlights, maybe name tags for me an'...an'..." He frowned, his memory drawing a complete blank on a name. He peered perplexedly at his "partner", and she could clearly see the wheels spinning away in his head.

Re: [FWM] Backstage: CUT!
Esmeralda held a hoof to her chest, clearly having difficulty breathing now. "... y-yes. I think that... might be prudent. Also, is that... ice?" The onboard cameras seemed to have a layer of frosting on them now. Odd.
"Ugh. Pubs these days... I'll take ye weak beer then. Make that a double!" Shell Shock said, shaking his head.
"Well, I am glad to have inspired you then!" Icy replied, smiling, accepting his smooches gladly. She cuddled closer, letting a soft sigh escape her lips. "How far are we to your destination?"

Re: [FWM] Backstage: CUT!
He's stalled, girl! Quick, say something!
"Yes, good ideas. Name tags will help you keep track of us, and help the ponies we're assisting get along with us. Besides, Sandy sometimes forgets things when he gets flustered, so it'll make sure he doesn't have trouble remembering my name."
That was pretty obviously a cover-up, you know.
Quiet, you. I didn't have long to come up with it.
Night Jewel calmed down a bit, but still moved on to other points of discussion quickly. "And as for the others, programs are a must, but are the flashlights for us or for them? I can see in the dark pretty well, so I won't need one."Last edited by PurityIcekiller; 2014-03-15 at 01:37 AM.

Re: [FWM] Backstage: CUT!
"I ain't that bad," Sandy huffed defensively. He half-listened as the strange filly asked her questions, shooting her the odd none-too-subtle suspicious glance. How could he up and forget a pony's name like that? Sure he could get confused from time to time, but
the Cap'n hadn't teased him in hourshis head always'd been pretty clear on names.

Re: [FWM] Backstage: CUT!
"If it holds." Starbeam murmurs darkly.
Stellar's expression perks. "What's this? I thought you and the sparkle gang were, like, his best friends."
Starbeam shakes her head, apparently trying to put a complex thought into words. "Don't misunderstand - I appreciate who he's become. But I don't think we're nearly as careful about him as we should be. Nevermind somepony recognizing him and trying to kill him in the street like you did, a ploy that runs exactly like this is most assuredly something Zaros could put together and execute. Frankly, we don't know what he saw on the other side, and without that context, we can't be sure."
Stellar's brow furrows. "So...you're buddies, but you think he could be up to something? That doesn't make any sense."
Another shake of the head."I don't trust him. Not really. But Taylor does, and I trust Taylor. That makes it straightforward." She shrugs.
Stellar adopts a rather shrewd expression. "And if this tailor is wrong?"
Rather suddenly, Starbeam's horn sparks and she emits a low snarl. "Then, if you're amenable, I lock the two of you in a room together and disintegrate what's left of him."
"That could work."
Flare scooped up some snow and, with effort, formed an uneven tail wrapping a bit around the left leg.
"...Apparently, it is less easy than I thought."
She circles the second snowpony, gazing at it with a detached sort of familiarity. "It reminds me of a wanderer. I wonder what her story is, and how many she's heard?"
She stares a while longer, then shakes herself. "I'm sorry. Horne says I'm needlessly hippopomorphizing."
"Good. Thank you for the consideration."
Blueshield took a cautious sip, then seemed slightly calmer. "A perfectly acceptable beverage. I do not need my discretion and mental acuity debilitated to appreciate it."
"I have had to put up mostly with frivolous demands for persecution of unfortunate individuals from that variety of wealthy fool. 'Oh no, this citizen looked at me funny! Arrest her!''" Blueshield rolled her eyes. "Idiots are most infuriating when they have some kind of influence to back it up. Fortunately, in my country, most of them were willing to mind their own intercoursing business."D&D is the only game I can think of (with the possible exception of Calvinball) where the only way to lose is by playing to win.

"... favour, 'cata?" Tyrol echoed, raising an eyebrow.
"Is that a code for breaking their legs? You know we don't approve of that," Lemongrass said half-jokingly.
"It-It's... fine," Esmeralda gasped, trying to catch her breath. "... never quite expected us to go... this high up."
One could almost watch the trainwreck in progress. Shell Shock glared at the glass. Then at the unfortunate waiter. "This isn't no beer! Have ye gone blind and deaf, pony?"

Re: [FWM] Backstage: CUT!
Well, we're going back down, at least a bit. Take a good look outside - it's quite a view.

Re: [FWM] Backstage: CUT!
"We should be there.........now," He declared as the carriage came to a slow halt. Another smooch. He then forced himself to move away from his lady love and stepped out of the carriage. He then extended his fore hoof out to her. "My lady."
Outside the carriage stood in the middle of a wintery glade, the snow brilliantly white and soft as fine powder. Icicles dangled from trees that brushing against them would cause them to chime against each other. It was very peaceful and quiet with what few birds chittering away in bare trees, late for their migration to warmer climates.
There was a plush blanket that lay over a rubber sheet to keep the snow from dampening it up. From the trunk of the carriage, the puller removed a wicker picnic basket.
"Mmmm...I am sure we can get some blank white stickers and have you write your names on them and call them name tags, as for programs, we got those in a box in bulk. Mmmm...won't be needing flash lights, this is gonna be over before the sun goes down." Prompter nodded her head.SpoilerPony Rp-Fox Trot Profile

Re: [FWM] Backstage: CUT!
(Gonna work something out with the others before proceeding with Shell Shock.)
Esmeralda looked through the monitors linked to the cameras. It was indeed... quite spectacular. Bridle Shores was merely a small smudge on the ground below, the lake glimmering faintly next to the town. In fact, Esmeralda fancied she could almost make out Canterlot in the distance.
"Quite breathtaking," she commented, glancing back at Lone Star with a grin. "In fact..." Her grin widened. "Think you can put this thing on autopilot?"
Icy's eyes lit up as she got her first glance of their destination. She noted the resemblance to her home, which she presumed to be intention, even if it bought a sudden pang of painful memories to her heart. "It's... quite lovely, Fox," she said softly as she took his hoof and stepped out of the carriage. With a soft smile, she smooched the stallion on the cheek, before turning to pluck the basket out of the puller's hooves. Then she trotted over to the blanket and patiently waited for Fox to take his place.

Re: [FWM] Backstage: CUT!
After Fox gave his next instructions to the puller, to basically come back in an hour, he happily trotted over to his lady love and settled down on the blanket, tucking his forelegs underneath him.
"I hope it is as romantic to you as I am hoping it is," he grinned and stretched his neck a little to nuzzle Icy.SpoilerPony Rp-Fox Trot Profile

Re: [FWM] Backstage: CUT!
Blades swished her tail in irritation. "Hey! Ya can't do that! Stellar told me I'd get to keep his head! What am I sposed to do if ya can't let her keep her word?"
After a moment, she chuckled and calmed down. "Well, anyway, Stellar, looks like he won't be doin' anything to ya anytime soon. Not without gettin' a couple new holes in him, anyway."

Esmeralda just fluttered her eyelids seductively. "Oh Star~" she swooned, dramatically falling into his hooves.
"Oh, yes. I think you done a fine job crafting such an intimate atmosphere," Icy reassured with a smile, nuzzling back. She set the basket down and peered inside, curious as to what he had bought along for this little getaway.Last edited by Grif; 2014-03-31 at 11:36 AM.

Re: [FWM] Backstage: CUT!
Prompter, Sandy, Night Jewel
Eventually at some point, Sandy and Night Jewel would have their sticker name badges and a marker to write their names down, along with a box of programs.
Fox sported an eager look, almost akin to a puppy trying to appease its master. Inside the wicker basket Icy would find a small assortment of deli styled sandwiches individually wrapped, several using different breads such as prance bread and pumpernickel and of course some varieties of white bread. She would also find two different thermos and two bowls, one spoon, two glasses and lastly, rose petals giving the basket a nice floral aroma.SpoilerPony Rp-Fox Trot Profile

Re: [FWM] Backstage: CUT!
"Um, yeah." For whatever reason, the filly seems quite shaken. "I, uh, what...what else were we doing? We're not walking in the snow for chuckles, right?"
Flare chuckled. "No, no, carry on. I find it more entertaining this way."
She gave a look around. "I had a thought. Perhaps you could find a reasonably-sized icicle?"
The flutter pony hovers out of sight for a moment, and returns with the requested icicle. One which, curiously enough, has just the right proportions for a unicorn horn.D&D is the only game I can think of (with the possible exception of Calvinball) where the only way to lose is by playing to win.

"Oooh, I have not..." Esmeralda whispered back, grinning. "Why don't you show me what is it?" she continue, her voice dripping with promise as she kissed his muzzle gently.
Icy just had to smile at what had been packed. "Just how much did you pack?" she teased. She took the sandwiches out carefully, and laid them out on the blanket, before stopping at the thermos. "Which one?" Icy asked, holding both of them up.
Tyrol accepted the nuzzle with a shy smile. Though he didn't have much to add to the current conversation at the moment.

Re: [FWM] Backstage: CUT!
The filly took a marker from the box and wrote, in flowing letters, Night Jewel. Underneath it, she added more writing in an unusual, elaborate script that one might guess meant the same thing (anypony who spoke Mareabic could confirm that it was). "There. Now we'll be all set." With that, she took a stack of programs and awaited further directions.
Flare began adding a bit of extra snow to the back of the second snowpony, then turned around with a look of surprise.
"Oh. You were faster than I expected."
Once she'd collected herself, she took the icicle and placed it in the middle of the original snowpony's forehead, then got back to work on the second. She seemed to be trying to make something that looked like wings. Butterfly wings, to be precise.
"Ah, excellent. To the aristocracy, reputation is of unsurpassed eminence. It is said that some would execute their own newborn offspring for their reputation, although I have thankfully not heard of any such incident. Enlightening the populace as to unsavoury activities is more effective for destroying a noble than an assassin in the night, not to mention more civilized."
Blueshield got what appeared to be a smirk. "I am beginning to like the way you think, Miss Staccata. Perhaps you would like to further demonstrate your cognitive capabilities? I believe I have a challenge for you, should you be interested."Last edited by PurityIcekiller; 2014-04-08 at 11:29 PM.
