"We have an awkward dilemma," Pyro said, choosing words carefully. "You have offered a prize for... What was it? 'Most embarrasing memory'? On one hoof, Dartaxion here thinks he may have found it. However, it's rather sensitive and Featherbow has already had enough stress for the day."

Pyro began telepathing. And frankly, so have I. Now I'll grant Featherbow, he doesn't snap easily, but that's a limit we don't want to push, and from what I've gathered today I'm not above snapping you to prevent it, he thought at Loften, letting his anger bleed psychically through what was otherwise a stone mask.

Persuasion:

Loften's smile cracked. His mouth was still curved upwards, but it wasn't any kind of grin anymore. "Ahheh...right. I think I can take your word on it then."

With that he reached into his saddlebags and pulled out a small burlap bag of arrowheads, dropping ten more into it. "G'job Dart. If Closure were still running it, you'd ace the psychic morality class. Featherbow'll probably be doing that one now if we don't nix it altogether."

Crystalite Sun Jul 13, 2014 3:13 pm

Good show. Let's not do this again, shall we? Pyro continued telepathing, letting thenrage dissipate in favor of a mix of satisfaction and caution.

"Speaking of Miracles," Pyro said, returning to natural speech, "In light of today's incident, I thinknit might be best to keep a closer eye on him than we might normally for today... I don't suppose you could elp out with that?"

Elacular Sun Jul 13, 2014 3:20 pm

"Hmm." Loften considered. "Well, Levs already has an eye on him. What with us doing electives the rest of the day, I wouldn't be surprised if they just play in the woods or spend a few hours chilling in the dep-chambers. She only ever attends my lectures anyway. So what should we do about that?"

Crystalite Sun Jul 13, 2014 3:34 pm

"If Levia attends your lectures, and Miracle tends to stick with her, that's a step in then right direction. You have Clairvoyance, don't you? Doesn't it work over longer ranges with someone you know really well? I forget. If it does, you could link through Levia, and watch that way. If not, then our next best bet is to pick another camper and voluntell them."

Elacular Sun Jul 13, 2014 3:39 pm

Loften nodded dutifully, his usual smile coming back. "No worries, Sarge. Me and the little lady got it down, and if things go sideways, you'll be the first to know. Promise. Uh, also, just so you know, the prick with the signs is outside again, and legally we're still not allowed to set him on fire."

Dart takes the arrowheads and smiles, oblivious to Loften's discomfort. "Thanks!"

He looks into the bag and starts counting. "One, two, three...."

Crystalite Sun Jul 13, 2014 7:23 pm

"Ugh!" the Sargeant said irritatedly. "Legally he's guilty of trespassing, remind me why we can't just burn him?"

Quietkal Sun Jul 13, 2014 8:07 pm

Cloud watches Featherbow for a moment, before turning to Marsh. "I think he's gonna be in there for a bit. Would you wanna grab some lunch?"

Elacular Sun Jul 13, 2014 8:31 pm

Magimind joins Loften and Pyro, scowling. "Legally, he's just barely outside our property line. Legally, he has a freedom to peacefully protest. And legally, setting him on fire, however satisfying, would be assault, battery and potential arson. Our standing with the feds is tenuous enough as it is, the last thing we need to do is attack a former politician."

Pyro scowled outwardly, keeping up the charade. I like this plan, he thought in response. And I think I know just the one for the job, he finished, looking about for Grey Matter...

ZamuelNow Sun Jul 13, 2014 11:34 pm

Shaken out of her stupor by Cloud's question, Marsh nodded, "Lunch sounds good. I need to find out how to get some cooking supplies, anyways."

Quietkal Mon Jul 14, 2014 12:12 am

Cloud starts toward the mess hall, trotting with the younger pony rather than just flying there. Rather than walk in silence, she tries for some idle chit-chat.
"You uh, said your name was Marsh something, right?"

GamerGoddessDin Mon Jul 14, 2014 2:06 am

<(Pyro)What if I were to cause his signs to be blown by the "wind" inside the property line just far enough he'd have to pass said line to retrieve them? Would that improve your situation any?

Sorry about taking so long getting out of there, the Stranger failed to tell me that it's harder to exit the minds of other ponies than it is to exit your own.>

<<A nice Amber Herb salad sounds good right about now. My brain's still a tad sore from trying to hold that pig still.>>

*Grey approaches Cloud and Marsh as fast as her tiny little legs will carry her.*

"108...109... and 110"*

*OOC:Yeah I don't know how's he counting them either.

Dart stows the arrowheads away, and heads off to find Jewel, realizes he has no idea where she is, and starts looking around for her.

OOC:Looking for Jewel.

You never actually left the mess hall, but when you get back in line, the chef, Cheesesteak, glares and throws some animal crackers at you. "No lunch yet! It's been an hour! Eat fishy crackers. Brain food. да."

Jewel is nearby, using her mop to clean up after some of the foals who got mind sick, grumbling about how vomit is "The grossest thing on the bucking planet, oh my god.."

Cardbo Mon Jul 14, 2014 4:42 am

Dart walks up to Jewel. "Hi Jewel! I've got arrowheads! Can you show me some stuff?"

...I think that would be just wonderful. Go make it happen.

Elacular Mon Jul 14, 2014 11:47 am

Jewel took the bag and shook it up and down a bit to weigh it before smiling. "Not bad, Snowball, not bad! This is a hundred and change, right? I'd call that ten minutes in my showroom if you don't wanna buy anything else. Down with that?"

Cardbo Mon Jul 14, 2014 12:41 pm

"Yup!"

Elacular Mon Jul 14, 2014 1:34 pm

"Awesome! Uh...wait til I clean up the puke though. Oh, also." Jewel reached into one of the pockets on her coveralls and pulled out a small tin, tossing it to Dart. "Kiddy camper starter kit. You got some smelling salts, a map of the camp drawn by yours truly and some other crap I can't remember right now."

GamerGoddessDin Mon Jul 14, 2014 1:41 pm

<(Cloud & Marsh)Be right back, have to go prank that sign guy from this morning real quick. I think I packed just enough Amber Herbs to share with you guys and the other couple of guys we chatted with when that incident happened earlier. If you would grab them and meet me near the edge of camp real quick like you might be able to catch the show too.> *Grey's eyes glow neon orange before she dissapears from sight completely. +Element of Magic gaining Stealth Mode then using cast 1 of 3 of it Stealth value is 28+ after vanishing from sight she runs to her cabin, grabs a bag full of Amber Herbs and eats one as she heads towards where sign guy is. As she finishes eating the herb she uses TK to travel the last few yards silently so as not to be noticed. She silently lands roughly 40 feet from sign guy before redirecting her TK towards the sign guy's signs.*

"Cool!" Dart starts looking through the box to see what he's got.

Elacular Mon Jul 14, 2014 1:46 pm

"One two three four! We won't take it anymore! Five six seven eight! Kill the camp and shut the gate!"

You easily make a "gust of wind" blow his signs into the property line, but he grabs them with his unicorn magic and drags them back without stepping on the property and continues marching unfettered, pornstache blowing in the wind.

"One two three four! Never open up the door! Five six seven eight! Psychic's false and magic's great!"

Cardbo wrote:"Cool!" Dart starts looking through the box to see what he's got.

Just as Jewel said, there are smelling salts and a piece of paper in the tin. Unfolding the paper, you see

Psychoneights - Page 15 Campmap_zps2a48e4bf

...an atrocity. It looks like it was drawn by a geriatric colorblind monkey with the hiccups. Jewel glances down at it, puffing her chest with pride.

GamerGoddessDin Mon Jul 14, 2014 3:24 pm

<(Dart & Cloud & Pyro) Could you meet me by the billboard in the parking lot real quick? I could use some assistance in my Plan B to assist the counselors in convincing that foal with the anti-psionic signs to leave this place and never return. I need someone to make a convincing semblance of a random naturally occuring snowstorm as well as someone to make a sheet of ice at the guy's feet. Then we just have a gust of "wind" give him a little shove and he slides right into the counselor's jurisdiction.>

<(Pyro) I'll let you know when the show's about to start. Hope you'll be there to provide a grand finale.>

<(Dart & Cloud) In case it wasn't obvious before: Don't let the target know you're there.>
