[GRIMDARK] Fallout Equestria: Project Horizons Discussion

We said our goodbyes and parted. I started to walk to the bus stop, but then I looked back, just to make sure Celestia was really real – but she’d had already vanished behind the veils of slowly-falling snow.

When I got home, I was gripped by the sudden need to write an email to her. I tried to stop myself, but when I opened my mail I found there was an email already waiting for me. It was from her.

Dear anon,
Thank you so much for tonight! I realize now what a fool I was to have ever struggled against Lulu’s suggestion. I have to admit that she helped me chose your profile – I think she knows me far better than I know myself sometimes! Tonight, with you, I felt as if I was allowed to be who I truly am again after a long, long time- a woman rather than just the one everyone goes to if they have a problem. Thank you so much for that gift.
Let’s meet up again for drinks as soon as possible!
Tia

I shook my head, scarcely believing that the evening had actually happened. My life had shifted from shitty to amazing in a couple of hours. Truly a god or goddess somewhere must be smiling on me, I decided.

The next couple of days of my life were just a gap of meaningless blankness as I waited to see Celestia again. My job, my family, everything seemed to have become a shadow or a dream. It was infatuation rather than desperation – but could anybody, when faced with being with someone like Celestia, be criticized for feeling the same way?

And that was how our next few dates progressed – we’d meet in the same bar and then go on from there, doing the usual kind of things couple do. But wherever we went and whatever we did, we always ended up spending most of our time talking, and yet the more she told me about herself, the less I realized I knew.

“I wish we could meet more often,” Celestia said to me. It had been about a week since our previous date and the longer than usual wait had been agony. “But you know Equestria – there’s always something that needs sorting out.” She sighed and took a sip of her dandelion wine, leaving a smear of lipstick on the rim of the glass.

“Dragons again?” I asked.

“Hydras,” she said. “Lots and lots of hydras.”

I sat there wondering what ‘hydra’ was the Equestrian word for. By now I was getting used to Celestia’s strange way of speaking and I preferred not to get bogged down in long conversations where she tried to explain things about her strange native country. So I just smiled at her and took another sip of my drink.

Soon she excused herself to go to the bathroom and I was left alone with my scotch and my thoughts for a few moments. Did I really believe Celestia was in charge of a small country and visiting here by plane every couple of days? Not for a moment. I’d looked up Equestria on the internet and found nothing more than references to a children’s cartoon. But whatever Celestia’s reasons were for being cagey about the truth, the time I spent with her filled me with such delirious happiness that any concerns I might have had were soon driven away.

I turned to see her walking back to the counter through the crowded bar. Tonight she was wearing a short-hemmed black skirt and a purple blouse and I felt my chest tighten as I was reminded how curvaceous a woman she was. She had really taken good care of herself – it wasn’t a young woman’s body, but the mellow sensuality and ripeness of her mature figure was something a young girl just couldn’t compete with. That narrow waist with her curvy hips and round butt combined with a substantial bust to form a gorgeous hourglass that got me hard just thinking about how she looked naked.

Celestia noticed me ogling her and she winked at me, and when she sat back down she smiled a sudden and secretive smile.

“What’s going on?” I asked. “You look especially happy all of a sudden.”

She sat down and smiled at the bartender, who by now knew us well and brought her another dandelion wine. She took a sip and said “I was just talking to Lulu. Apparently everything is quiet at the moment, so I don’t have to hurry back for once.”

“That’s good,” I said. It always seemed as if things were dragging her away from me for one reason or another. “You can relax and enjoy yourself then. Why don’t we have a few more drinks?”

She leaned over close to me. “OK,” she said. “But take care not to drink too much – I don’t want you falling asleep in bed.”

I’d like to say that I spurted scotch out of my mouth in surprise, but that doesn’t really happen in real life. Instead I just kind of choked a little, and after swallowing the offending liquor I came back with “Last drinks, then?”

Celestia nodded, taking a sip of her wine. “Should we go back to your place?”

My stomach did a backflip. “Oh no! It’s – well, it’s a bit of a mess.” God damn it, why hadn’t I cleaned the damn place? “Why don’t we just…?”

“A hotel?” she replied, amused. “Is that the usual way things are done in your country?”

I smiled in embarrassment. “I guess you could say that.”

There's a part two, if you'd like?

Are you even tall enough?

I'm close if not over 6'0".

You should be able to do it to some extent then, I'm 6'3".
thing is you gotta consider, you'll probably (naturally) bring your head down lower for a harder impact, reducing your impact height.

STOP.
YOU MUST GATHER YOUR PARTY BEFORE VENTURING FORTH.

No, really. You must.



Check out these mods. Though the BG part is less useful at the time (with the EnhEd coming out soon and whatnot, although maybe it will be adaptable), but IWD will let you create an entire party as the mane 6.

@Kipper



Bravo, sir, Bravo, I didn't read through it all, but you sure know how to derail.

Kipper...you know better than to post clopfic here. First half: Fine, I actually really enjoyed it.
Starting at hotel door: No. Bad Kipper. Not allowed here.


...even if I did enjoy it a bit...still not okay.

If I actually did headbutt you my forehead would probably connect with your chin or something which would hurt like hell for one of us.

I'm sorry (I say this as I'm laughing, but not at you.) I promise I wont post it again.
I recommend the second part, because that is... amazing. (as long as you're okay with Human x Celestia in her true form).

I actually could've posted worse but I knew that would've been way too far.

but yeah, don't worry, I made my point.

Thank you, thank you all. You've been wonderful.

You, more then likely. I mean, yes it'd ache for me, but a jaw ain't gonna take half the hurt that the forehead is, all things considered.

Yes, you made your point, I hereby declare you Lord of Derail

Three Russians and a Ukrainian stand in the back, shooting angry glares at Kipper while holding various tools from monkey wrenches to sledge hammers.

Edit:@Kipper That's one of the reasons I prefer going for a ranged attack of some sort whether it be throwing shoes like a douche (lawl) or using a handgun. Technically I am a big person but having short legs means there be a lot of people taller than me. Kinda bad for a close-range fight.

Does anyone here like Baldur's Gate?

I have a chainsaw.

I am... Lord Derailer!

I...err...umm...what

You silly Ruskies <3 You wouldn't know how to get past my defences!

For you see, I know your one weakness, and I have made an impenetrable wall of it:

Vodka.

A wall of vodka bottles that you cannot pass, because there's too many for even one Russian to drink in a lifetime!

AHHAHAHAHA. I LOVE YOU CAMO <3

*backstab* "I just finished what your liver started."

Ah, but you failed to think of one thing: I'm going to help them with my German blood and German alcohol tolerance


And you're welcome Kipper

O..................k

I was named King of Bad Puns a while back...hint hint.

here's a very simple equation that should help you understand:

Somber please hurry up with Chapter 51 our sanity depends on it
