A small discussion and a quick nod later and the boys joined in for some snacks. "I'm sure we'll roll better in the next part. Call it a gut feeling." Cloud said as he got some food.

"Hopefully we're not rolling to see if we rest or get healed while we're camping." Daring said. "Or else we may have to build a house and live there before we get to the next part." "Yeah. Or to gather fire wood and build a fire." Tor joined in with a laugh. "We better not let Cast do it."

"I think we can do the normal every day things without rolling our stats against it." Cloud said, rolling his eyes. "Now if you'd like to, say, try and break a log in half with your whip, then you'd have to roll dex on that, but otherwise I think you'd be fine." Dex added, mostly out of jest as he grabbed a burger.

"And you play this regularly?" Ever asked. "It seems like a lot to learn and manage to have some fun."

"It was once told to me that some ponies bake a cake to eat it and some ponies bake a cake to bake a cake." Dex said, "The planning and management is just as much fun for me as the playing itself."

"Yeah, like how just training can be fun." Tor said. "And inventing." Mith added. "I guess I never thought about it like that." Ever said.

Cloud ate a whole burger while the others were talking, "A little cold but still delicious." He said as he picked up a pack of fries. "So you guys ready to get into it." Dex said. grabbing a drink.

"Totally, let's camp!" Daring said heading back to the table. "Remember, Cast shouldn't gather firewood." Tor said following. "I'll gather the firewood." Mith said.

"Bleh bleh bleh." Cloud said and stuck his tongue out at Daring. "I'm sure Cloud will be busy enough. We'll need to split to cover ground and still not call to much attention to ourselves. I'll tell you guys now that there are no more wolves but there are a few cultist." Dex explained. "We all ready?" Cloud asked as he and Dex got back to their seats as well.

Tor and Daring chuckled at Cloud as they sat down. "Yep." Tor replied. "What do we do?"

"Since it looks like we're going to be a while, we should play like we're setting up for the night." Dex said, tapping his chin as in though but knowing what he was planning ahead of time, Daring and Tor should scout the area for enemies or traps while Celeste and I tend to the wounded at camp. There will be some lot in it for you. It's the only way I can think to reward you both for your valiant efforts in the fight. Sound good to you guys?" Dex asked, looking to the group. Cloud nodded quietly, liking over the board which was now set up with a little validity and some surrounding forest.
OOC: This work with you? I'm sure you can see where I'm going with this.

ooc: No I can't see where you're going with it. Unless you just mean getting Celeste and Sly together. "Cool." Tor said. "Looks like we've got the exciting part Daring." <ESS> "We don't need to roll to heal now, right?" Ever asked.

OOC: Yes, Celeste and Titania with Sly and Cast. Again, this is going to feel very forced and it's, at least in part, deliberate. Dex and Cloud are both a little nervous and I want to show that too.
BIC: Dex sat a small chest in the middle of the forested area. Once he'd verified everything was in it's place he nodded, "Alright guys, we're good to go."
<ESS>

"So what's the chest for?" Tor asked.
<ESS>

Post by Broly Ultimatrix on Mar 21, 2016 2:29:15 GMT -5
"It's got a trap and some armor for Titania. That is, it's got a trap inside, not that it's trapped." Dex said, "Just something for your characters after the last battle since the wolves didn't have anything."
<ESS>

ooc: A little lost. Should Tor and Daring stumble onto the chest? Should Celeste just keep healing Tatania?

Post by Broly Ultimatrix on Mar 21, 2016 23:07:09 GMT -5
OOC: Yeah, Daring and Tor can stumble across the chest. Assume it's nestled into a nook in a tree or something, not necessarily out in the open.
BIC: "So we've got to ask you two a question." Dex said, in character for sly and pointing both Cast and Sly to face Titania and Celeste.

"Can I find the chest?" Daring asked Tor. "Yeah, okay." Tor answered her.
<ESS>
Ever and Mith reacted with their characters, obviously thinking this was still part of the game.

"And I would deeply appreciate it if you would go to the dance with me as well." Cloud asked Mith. Dex was looking right into Ever's eyes, so she knew the question was directed at her.

Ever's pearl colored face turned almost completely red when Dex asked. Daring and Tor had stopped playing and Tor was almost leaning on the table, looking more excited than anypony in the room, to see what Ever would do. "I... I..." Ever stumbled over her words as nervousness and fear stormed inside her and her face slowly turned away from Dex. "I ca..." "I'll say yes if you do." Mith interrupted Ever before she finished her sentence. "But... it's not..." Ever started again hugging herself. Tor was now standing on the chair her front hooves on the table. "Come on Ever! This is like the sweetest way to get asked to the dance ever! You can't say no. We'll all be there. It's just one dance and you deserve it!" Ever was biting her lip and it almost looked like she was going to bite through it before she softly spoke. "Alright, I'll go with you." "Yes." Mith answered Cloud. "I would love to go to the dance with you."

Cloud smiled and nodded to Mith with a sincere thank you while Dex breathed out a deep sigh of relief and melted into his chair. He wiped the not so proverbial sweat from his brow and sat back up, giving his thanks with at least a little more enthusiasm then Clouds calmer reaction.

"Awesome!" Tor said unable to contain herself and flying to the ceiling. "That's right! There's no time. You two have to get ready! We need to get dresses and we have to get you ready!" She landed next to Ever, who was still looking away from Dex with uncertainty. "Come on! We have like a hundred things to do!" She turned to Dex as she pushed Ever towards the door. "Sorry for cutting the game short Dex, but you know, girls."

A feeling of unease washed over Dex at Ever's seeming unenthusiastic response, still he smiled through it, "I understand. Cloud and I will clean up here." He said, right as cloud was getting up but then sat back down.

"Are you coming, Daring?" Tor asked as she, Ever and Mith reached the door. "Sure thing. Better than clean up duty." Daring laughed. "Catch you later guys, don't let the food go to waste." Daring stopped when she reached the door and looked back at Cloud one more time with a smile. "So this was the big secret. Remember, Mith likes you." She warned with a whisper before heading out.

Cloud just rolled his eyes. Dex was too distracted to hear daring, still too focused on Ever's reaction.

At the dorm Tor was already going through Ever's room. "You said you had dresses right? Where are they? Do you have a dress Mith?" "I have an old one." Mith answered. Ever was still in a daze over the result of the night. "You shouldn't have made me go. It's not fair towards Dex." "So what's this all about?" Daring asked feeling a bit left out. "Dex is cool, so why the big fuss?" "It's really complicated." Tor told her as she opened another closet. "Really, really complicated."

Cloud and Dex cleaned up. They then brought the leftover food, setting some aside for themselves, and handed the rest out ponies chilling outside since curfew want yet upon them. They talked while they did this. "That went really well I'd say." Cloud said been handing out two burgers. "Ever didn't seem that excited. I wonder if she really wanted to go or if Tor forced her." Dex said, mostly just waking around with cloud while he did the charity work. "I don't think you should let it get to you. Be happy with things as they are and enjoy the moment. No need to worry about what might happen tomorrow." "But she could say no again once she's had the night to think it over." Dex rolled half panicked.

"How complicated can it be?" Daring asked. "It's like you and your dad complicated, only ten times worse." Tor told her. "Oh." "And not something Ever should be thinking about on the night before the biggest night ever!" Tor said, her comment aimed towards Ever rather than Daring. "Ritz and Posh is going to go after him and all the ponies are going to hate him because of me." Ever said through gritted teeth. Tor stopped searching and walked over to Ever. "What those bullies do and what other ponies think is not your fault! Mith is still here for you, I'm still here for you. Cloud is still here, Daring is still here and Dex is still going to be there, no matter what they do. As long as we're there for each other they can't hurt us!" "But..." "For once Ever think about yourself. Go and enjoy yourself and show them all that you are you. You are Ever and nothing else. Now, where is that dress?"

After handing out all the good and repeating himself over and over, cloud had finally convinced Dex to talk it easy, sleep on it, and wait till tomorrow to see how Ever was feeling then. They split up and went to their respective dorm rooms. Dex paced around a bit before going to bed and cloud make himself busy trending to his plant in the window, which was looking quite healthy, for a previously plucked weed.

"Found something!" Tor said dragging out a box from under Ever's bed. Mith was putting on her own dress. It was rather plain, but suited her. Daring was helping her and told her she could borrow some her jewelry that would go well with the dress. "No! Not that, I can't." Ever protested when she saw the box. Tor opened it and took out the dress and the three ponies' eyes grew wide. "Whoa!" Daring said. "That is one impressive looking dress. Not like the Canterlot fancy stuff, there's something very unique about it. Where did you get it?" "It was a present." Ever told them. "From Princess Celestia."
ooc: going to go over to the next day, but where do we start? Just before the dance where everpony is getting ready?
