Re: Mystery Ahoof
"The ceiling." Wanderlust replies without turning away from his hoof, pointing upwards with his spare hoof. "If you happen to have a ladder nearby, do speak up."

Re: Mystery Ahoof
Yuna pouts for a moment after hearing about a lack of a truth spell in Equestria. She then taps on Beam's nearest leg trying to get her attention before whispering to her.Um Miss Beams I ah um can't do that truth green magic thingy again, I kinda can only do that like once a day and stuff... too hard to concentrate like that... Do you think you can kinda do the same sort of thing?

Re: Mystery Ahoof
River looked up at the hole in the ceiling, trying to judge it's height and if she could climb up to it...
- Meta:
- ... Well, how high is it? And what kind of DC are we looking at to climb up to it, perhaps assisted by piled up furniture and other stuff?

Cobalt:
"Ooooh." The stallion proceeds to give Cobalt a big hug, front hooves wrapped around her butt. He starts giggling again.
River, Wanderlust:
The changeling's hoof does not pass through the wall.
The only furniture in the room is the table and the broken chair that was at one point swung by the changeling.

"Yaaaa..." Cobalt just lets herself be hugged for a few seconds. Her tail flits aimlessly, smacking the stallion in the face. In the meantime, she looks around for another drink, or more friends and hugs.

Re: Mystery Ahoof
River pondered her options. ((According to Sunbeam's PM)) The hole in the ceiling was about nine feet up. She was about four feet, from hoof to whithers ((Just a guess)) and the table looked about another two feet. ((Moar guessing.))
"...If we pull this table over, I think I could give you a boost."

Re: Mystery Ahoof
Wanderlust pauses in his unproductive efforts, letting the changeling body slide to the floor as he gauged the distance. "It's worth a shot." He says, grabbing the table and pulling it under the hole.

Out of uses of H,S&J, sadly.

Re: Mystery Ahoof
"You know Silver Lining, it would be nice if you'd lend some sort of support but it seems you'd rather investigate every mare's bedroom than bring a pony's killer to justice or even help verify that a suspect IS innocent. Â I came here for a vacation and you know what, that's what I'm going to go do." Beams Brightly then walked off in frustration.
- OOC:
- Been in the process of quitting for well over a month but had hope to have closed things out more smoothly. Â With the speed of things, just gonna finally officially cut it here. Â Forcefield will be up for another 10 minutes after she leaves. Â Originally planned a bigger final rant but just ending things.

Silver called after Beams. "Wait!" He then turned to Wild Cherry. "Cherry, I know you gave Soft Whisper the knife. She couldn't get it out of the scabbard, and it is unlikely that anyone would have even considered that a teacher would be carrying a real knife."

Re: Mystery Ahoof
Cobalt
The stallion starts sliding away form the hug, and a faint snoring can be heard from him. No other ponies seem apt to giving hugs, and no other friends are visible in the bar. Suddenly the presence near your mind snaps away.
River, Wanderlust
The table is easily moves, but the stuff on top of it is rattled a lot. The Chalice is tipped over and the straw falls over the edge of the table, and at that moment somethings seems to disconnect, like your mind is suddenly so much lonelier.
Silver, Yuna
"O-one of her students could have played with it, and somepony could have discovered from that and done it with that knowledge." Wild Cherry says, but it sounds like a forced hypothetical, not very convincing.

Re: Mystery Ahoof
Cobalt looks around, confused. Something changed... but what. She can't tell, and in fact in her drunken state all she can tell is that none of her friends are here.... and she's alone again. Sadly, she just lays her head to the floor, and waits, hoping someone finds her soon.

Re: Mystery Ahoof
Wanderlust shakes his head as the connection snaps, confused and disoriented. "D'you think we did that?" He asks River.

Re: Mystery Ahoof
"I don't care!" River snapped, having finally had enough. "I want to go home! We can talk about it after," she said, climbing up onto the table once it was properly in place. "Now get up here and get on my shoulders, and I'll boost you up."

Re: Mystery Ahoof
Wanderlust shakes his head. Given recent occurrences, it had probably been the worst possible way for him to word that statement. He wordlessly climbs onto the growing tower and jumps off of Rivers outstretched hooves.
- OOC:
- I'm guessing we might want a stunts check from River, too? Since she's half of this effort. In any case:
Stunts: 10+8=18
Also, I figure I'll just roll my stunts check to get down the wall right now, in case I pass this check, so that we can move on faster.
Hey, Climber's grip lasts for an hour after use!
Stunts: 19+18=37
...wow.

"But then again you already knew about the knife. Yuna slowly replies.

Re: Mystery Ahoof
Cobalt
Only a moment passes before Cobalt realizes she can see River and Wanderlust... or at least she thinks she sees them, she's too drunk to be sure. They're there, then they're not.
River, Wanderlust
Just as Wanderlust moves so River can boost him up to the hole, a portion of the wall, the one where River's hoof was able to pass through, starts to fade out. It probably was already fading out, but it's just now noticeable. It seems to fade in and out, and through the wall the pair can see a bar full of ordinary drunken ponies, Cobalt on the floor and looking lonely.
Silver, Yuna
"I- I-" Cherry starts glancing at the crowd and back at Silver and Yuna, but her shoulders slump as she apparently realizes she's already lost. "Looks like you've already got me, I guess I may as well give my reasons. Why not? Well, I know it may be hard to believe, but Tree Cutter and I were in love. We were saving up our money to get us out of this hamlet that calls itself a city, or at least I thought that was the plan. I nearly had enough when he met me here, and told me that he'd actually just told me he loved me so he could get free..." She glances at Yuna through the tears now building up in her eyes. "business from me, and that he would be out of town right after this event was over. I snapped, grabbing the nearest weapon I could see in the crowd, and it just happened to be Soft Whisper's knife. I... I panicked after that and hid myself in the crowd and forced myself to calm down. I guess it wasn't enough, huh?" Cherry is now on the ground, weeping, her mascara black streaks down her cheeks. It's then that the police finally arrive, as well.

"Oh Cherry..." Silver mutters out. He turns to Yuna and whispers "Have the actors wrap things up. I'll comfort Cherry and talk to the police." He then lowers himself to Cherry and rubs her back in support...

"R-right..." Yuna replies already shaking her head to get out of the funk from Cherry's explanation. She then slips through the crowd back to the actors and whispers to the one in charge. "We found who did it you can wrap things up now."

"You're going to have an even easier time getting out than I will." Wanderlust comments, jumping onto River and out the hole. "So let's go tend to Cobalt, hm?"

"Home first. We can tend to her there," River said, jumping off the table and stomping towards the door...

Re: Mystery Ahoof
Wanderlust slips back into his clawed horseshoes and scrambles down the wall, hurrying inside. "C'mon, dear." He whispers to Cobalt, trying to lift her off the floor enough to get her onto his back. "On your feet. Give me something to work with here."
- OOC:
I rolled my climb check way back when and got a 38 or so, and I figured that was enough. Do I need a persuasion check to communicate with Cobalt at all? if so, 1d20+10=19+10=29

Re: Mystery Ahoof
Cobalt tries to wave at the other two even as they fade in and out of reality. When they don't respond to her right away, she goes back to studying the floor sadly. She's surprised when she hears Wanderlust in her ear, and feels herself being lifted. "No, we gottta... they're coming for me... staaay... whatsa feet?"

Re: Mystery Ahoof
Silver, Yuna
The police start surrounding the crowd, and one of them comes up to Silver and Cherry. "I understand that there's a body, but what's going on here?"
A flash of relief crosses the actor's face, but he quickly gets back into character and even manages to draw the crowd away from the real body so the police can get to it.
Cobalt, River, Wanderlust
When River passes through the fading wall this time, it snaps and disappears, the room behind her completely changing in appearance at the same time (the dead changeling is still there). The bartender who was earlier seeming confused about the absence of the door relaxes and starts making her way toward the back room.

Wanderlust's head darts up as the room across from him changes, and he nearly drops Cobalt in surprise. "River, give me a hoof with her." He grunts in exasperation.

Silver Lining looks between the officer and Wild Cherry. "Long story short, there was a murder, and..." Silver takes a last upset look at Wild Cherry. "Well, she told me..."
