Giving the Computer screen another look as the Virtual dildo model stays pulled up , you eventually decide to settle back down next to your new android.
As you do she begins to get back up.
"Oh, I didn't mean to-"
>"I don't actually sleep," your maid responds.
"Yeah..."
>"Would you like me to prepare breakfast?"
"Sure."
>"Anything you want?"
"Nothing specific, no."
Your android maid gets up and begins walking to the kitchen.
>"So, I noticed that your Futon actually rolls out into a bed and your loveseat will also transform into a bed, Would you like me to start preparing them as such when you're about to sleep?"
"I umm... give me some time to think about that."
>"Also, we never decided what I am to do while you are asleep, do you want me to continue simulating a sleep cycle next to you at night?"
You rub your eyes again, grinding the dirt out.
>Before you can answer Brandy's voice sails over to you from your computer, "Last night I picked out a 3D model for the construction printer. We should be ready to go unless you want to customize it. Also, we should talk about the dosage schedule you had me make."
"Isn't it a bit too early for all of these questions?"
>"It's 10 o'clock," Brandy responds, "You've got your meeting with judgment at 12 and the police want you to go to the hospital between 2 and 4 in the afternoon, and meet at inpatient building 2. It's not a good day to be lazy!"
"I know, but, The maid just asked me something and now...Ughhhh"
>"Oh, oh no." Brandy remarks, "File I'm sorry, I'm just used to you and I being... Alone I guess. Go ahead and answer her first."

>>30730998
Let's get the drug schedule out of the way.

See if the constructor model can be modified to have a big fountain at the top.

Hey bath. Have you seen Mr. Robot?

>>30730998
She can roll out the bed if she wants. It'll give her something to do, I guess, and it'd probably be more comfortable anyhow. We can wait until she comes back with our breakfast to tell her that though.
Lets see Brandy's drug schedule.

>>30730998
is there anything maid could fix breakfast wise that could help us get up and going this morning?

Tell maid that she doesn't have to do the sleep cycle simulation tonight. But yeah fixing the bed is nice.

>>30730998
let's turn on the radio or tv. maybe it could serve as background noise as we get ready for our day.

>>30731069
She can do this around 10pm.
>>30731081
so pretty much asking her to cook whatever she thinks will work with whatever me may have.

>>30730998
Lets try the futon for a while.

>>30730998
Making beds and simulating sleep: yes
I think the model is probably good so let's get that dosage schedule out of the way and start getting ready to go out.

>>30731118
What if we need someone to keep watch if someone tries to sneak into our apartment again?

>>30730998
while she fixes breakfast. let's get a shower going. do we remember anything at all from last night? what are our drug supplies anyway. Do we need to meet our dealer anytime soon?

>>30730998
We should ask the maid, "Just what happened last night?"

"Actually Brandy, I would like to hear about your dosage schedule, but first."
You turn to your android, "Yes on the folding out the bed... I usually just don't' do it, because I'm lazy, and I like your sleep simulation, it's cute. I'm kind of a sucker for cute shiii...stuff. I'll figure out where I want you to Simulate sleep later. Brandy, pop the schedule up on the screen."
>"Right away File!"
Brandy pulls it up and begins explaining things.
>"So for a start I want to alternate between days. 2 Octagons one day I shot of the Fabuloso on another day. 1 cheat day a week. I think I'll consider last night a cheat day."
"Quite the diet. I guess we'll just see where this goes. Let's look at the model."

http://imgur.com/a/BIWky

>"Right Now it's just a basic Dildo, with the big oversized doors you suggested last night as well as swimming pools you told me to but in the half testicles."
You begin cracking up.
"I said that?"
>"Yep! The only other rooms in there right now are just for studtual stability, so we don't kill somepony."
"How big?"
>"About 80 regular stories."
"Brandy this is awesome."
>"Breakfast's ready!" The maid call out.
You go over to the table and find a bowl of oatmeal and a glass of water with some headache medicine.
>"I thought your night might leave you a bit sore." The maid explains.
"Thank you."
You take the meds and begin eating.

>>30731315
We were told that already. I think the very last post of the thread before this.

>>30731357
Can we put a fountain on the roof?

>>30731357
What should we have maid do while we are out? is there any chores or things that have been needed to be taken care of for awhile? does anything need to be cleaned or fixed around here that we can trust her to do?

>>30731357
I have an idea, but it's probably not a good one.
Can she include an area in the "shaft" to include shafts? Four elevator shafts? Can you make the head flat so it could be used as some sort of plaza or place to party, maybe even throw in a helepad?

I want to shaft to have space for windows. Big windows and not just the frames.

Should this be an office or a a hotel?

>>30731357
It needs an elevator that drones riders off at the TOP and a fountain sounds cool.

>>30731423 (me)
>>30731357
Maybe add a stone plague somewhere that Says "Viva La Sueño" somewhere.

>>30731405
Clean, fix, patch, sow the couches, the floor/rug(s), the dishes, dust the whole apartment except the server room, make sure no one breaks in, don't open or answer to anyone but us, learn the make and model of our car for fixing if needed in the future.

>>30731448
What? You mean a normal elevator that a pony could use? What's the purpose?

>>30731357
does it taste good? if so thank her for the cooking.

we should fix a shower while Brandy reminds us again of some of the details about this meeting.

Also what is our current drug supply looking? when do we need to refill it?

>>30731357
>>30731468
>You go over to the table and find a bowl of oatmeal
It's oatmeal anon. What did you expect? Well unless she added nuts, fruits and other stuff than it'll be plain. Fruits are preferable.
Depending on our stash we might need to hit by our donkey bro.

"Well I like it."

"By the way, Can you sew?"
>"Yes to a certain degree?"
"In addition to cleaning, can you try to fix the loveseat today?"
>"Yes, I can make an attempt and I may be able to mend my dress on a small scale as well if you wish, but I do not now where your sewing supplies are yet. Can you tell mewhere they are?"
"Yeah... I kinda, don't have any... I should probably pick some up while I'm out."
>"I can always buy them for you if you give me the money for them."
"I guess you could, I don't know, I'll give it a thought, you're leg is still broken, so it might be a better idea to keep you inside until it's fixed. I'll think about it."
>"As you wish Mr. File."
You look over your remaining drugs. about 1/4th of the Fabuloso jar is left ad you seem to have 17 pills left in your stash.
"Huh... I did manage to pace myself this week..."
You suddenly get some inspiration for your new building.
"Hey Brandy do you think you could flatten the top of the Dildo, add some windows to the base of the head and put a fountain on top?"
>"Of course!" Brandy answers.
You see things getting re-arranged on the program,
>"Like this?"

Lookin good so far. They might even keep it. Maybe some sexual group will push to keep it or something stupid. It would be a funny reminder to see it every other day.

>>30731612
Looks good, now get dressed.

>>30731612
let's take a shower and turn on the news.

Ask Brandy to recount our last discussion with judgment.

>>30731612
look out the window. is there a chalk outline of the jumper from yesterday?

Ask Brandy if we have already looked up parts to fix her leg or if we still need to do some searching on that.

"Brandy, you're awesome, it looks good. Toss on the News while I clean up."
You begin showering.

[Las Pegasus hit today with a massive brown out. Apparently the city of sin was the victim of a freak software malfunction. A cloud of Acid rain following a geothermal even in the jungles south of the Bad lands. The acid will not ne affecting us here in Equestriia but it will be affecting the fractured Griffin lands in a few days to come. The Equestrian Government has already started organizing a relief effort, anticipating the this further diminishing the conditions in the already broken countries to our East. Aid will be sent to both sides in their civil war.]
You get out of the shower and begin dressing up for your meeting.
"Could you remind me what the repairs on our new android will cost again?"
>Brandy begins listing things off, "Buildup in her joints can be steamed out, for 25 bits if you strip her skin yourself, 50 if you let them Strip her skin off. Her, eye will cost about 30 bits to replace, and 40 if you want to give her a set of realistic ones. The facial controls and right leg will still need to be diagnosed before we can get a price."
>"Actually," The maid butts in, "My eye lids are working again, I think something was lodged in my lid controls, so you may be able to skip that repair for the time being if it will save you money."

Calling it here for the night.
Also, I wanted to say that there is a Discord somebody set up for my quests Here: https://discord.gg/VxtPhy
But, the reason I've never really mentioned it because I've been keeping an eye on it to make sure it wasn't causing any damage to these thread. As it is, everything seems fine thus far, but a few times I have seen discussion about a current thread in the discord server. That is not the best place for active discussion about future commands and in quest speculation. Please, if there is a thread up for the quest you wish to actively discuss especially if it's about a current choice in the quest, keep it in the thread, since this is where the quest is actually played. Thank you.

>>30731823
So would this then just be for general discussion like in the general?

>>30731802
Have Brandy give us a refreshment of our conversation with Judgement.

>>30731802
Do a quick test of her eyesight. just to make sure it is functioning good enough.

>>30731802
Judgment meeting where we get details will probably throw a wrench into all plans, but

1) Judgement meeting.

2) Cops. Dealing with presumable ex-girlfriends.

3) Late night escapades with 3D printers and punks.

>"Last night I picked out a 3D model for the construction printer.

At least it's not a scan. Hate to have to have a police lineup for that.

>>30731396
You genius bastard

I'd be fine with sending the maid out with some cash to go buy shit for us. She's capable enough and it's the sort of thing you have a robot maid for. It's "Normal". Although it might be a bit awkward if/when she runs into the landlord. It might be a good idea to let Brandy track her or tap into her vision on command. You know, so she's never truly out on her own and free to start plotting our downfall.

(has no one suggested asking the zebra landlord with the robo-leg if she has any advice about how to fix a robot's leg?)

>>30731802
I'm more concerned about the leg, since it's leaking shit. We should focus on getting that fixed first. I think we should stick with robotic eyes, since they're slightly cheaper to replace, and also look cuter.
If we have time, we should talk to Tyra and see if she has any tools we could borrow, or any knowledge on how we could fix Maid's leg ourselves. That might have to wait until tomorrow though. We have a lot of stuff to do today.
We should come up with a better name than Maid sometime.

>>30734426
>has no one suggested asking the zebra landlord with the robo-leg if she has any advice about how to fix a robot's leg?
I think I did at least once last thread.

>>30734497
To do after the meeting with the cops at the hospital:

>Look into the Haddenfield PX4200-T48 GTS printer and see if we can hack it wirelessly or not.

>Check for the current firmware for the printer and if it's from Sentinel.
I think it's unlikely as the something like construction might not update their firmware til later.

>"There are two guard patrolling the yard at night and during the day there are guards posted in various sparse locations around the site. The printer they are using cannot print the foundation so there are still some workers prepping the concrete."
See if it's possible to jailbreak the printer so it can print the foundation.

>"Is the printer hooked up wirelessly to anything, like an internet connection or a remote start?"
>>"As far as we know, No. But I and my boss here don't really know that much about these printers."

>Major tech company Sentinel microsystems released a major patch to their products today as security concerns arose. The company urges all of their users to update their systems immediately to avoid potential threats.
Take a look into the patch and get an isolated version of it so you can practice breaking it.

You get a message back from Mister Brown.
>[Greetings, I would like to inform you that we are currently fully staffed besides our tech specialist. we have another candidate, but this individual is not very experienced and we would like to have someone with more if you are still interested. Also, we do have the specs on the system you will be working with as well as one to practice on if you choose to join the crew. regardless of what you choose, I would like to thank you for your time.]
I have an idea. What if we File cracks the copy of the system and offers it to the tech specialist as if they're too "inexperienced"? And in what ways was their new techie inexperienced?

Does File know how to lock pick and and does he own any? What's a hacker without a lock pick set? Going back to your roots man.

>>30731823

>>30736017
>The printer they are using cannot print the foundation so there are still some workers prepping the concrete."
>See if it's possible to jailbreak the printer so it can print the foundation.
When I read that, the thing I was imagining was that the gantry can't reach down to bedrock. Or... you know... there is no bedrock and they have to make pilings. A 3D printer is not a pile driver.

I still get the feeling that Mr. Brown is a cop. But nothing is illegal about receiving "a system to practice on".

>What's a hacker without a lock pick set?
Truth. It's not even that hard to learn. It's one hell of a skill to master, but most shitty locks depend on the masses being ignorant.

"How's your vision right now?"
>"Well the broken eye is getting bad signal which varies in quality with my movements and he other seems to be functioning just fine." The android answers.
"Brandy, remind me to ask Tyra about fixing robotic legs like this."
>"Okay File, Do you think her leg works the same?"
"No idea."
You load Brandy on your PDA, and begin walking out the door.
"Good bye maid."
>"Be safe File!" Your android answers."
You get in your car and start it up. changing the channel on the radio to talk radio.
"Brandy...I really need to come up with a new name for her."
>"Yeah, probably a good idea... File, Are you okay?"
"Yeah, Why?"
>"Last night you were, a little rough looking."
"Brandy, I'm fine. You know I don't have time to fuck off just because I'm not feeling good."
>"Okay."
The radio on your car plays the DJs Jack-ass and Horace interviewing some comedian on 95.4 THE MULE's Morning show, which seems to be replaying. This station was a lot better when they played oldies, but Jack-ass and Horace are really just entertaining enough.
When you finally get to your destination, you explain to a very large stallion that you're here to meet with your contact and you are ushered into the back where a young looking stallion is yelling at the pony you met with last.
>"Grandfather, I swear it's fine,she's not going to go to the police!" The young stallion remarks.
>"You're going to get your ass tossed in Prison if you keep doing this shit, Calm the fuck down Decker." Judgement responds."
>The younger stallion notices you and asks, "Hey, what the fuck is this faggot staring at!?"
>"He's the one I'm meeting with, Get out of here and lay low." Judgement barks back at the young stallion.
The young stallion leaves and you are motioned closer to the table. As you sit down you are next to another Unicorn stallion who is stitting at the table that you've never met before.
>"I am sorry you had to see that,"

>>30737825
It's no issue. So the job?

>>30737825
Lets make sure to remember a good description of the loudmouth. Might be useful for later.

>>"Grandfather, I swear it's fine,she's not going to go to the police!" The young stallion remarks.
>>"You're going to get your ass tossed in Prison if you keep doing this shit, Calm the fuck down Decker." Judgement responds."
Key words: she, police, prison
Assuming abusive relationship and repeated offenses. Is anyone else think the same thing I am? This is my hypothesis.

I think this is the guy that beat Ivory close to death and almost killed her.

>>30737889
there was claw marks though.

>>30737825
Family troubles? it happens.

>>30737825
"it's not related to my job is it?"

"So Mr.Judgment I suppose you wish to discuss the job first?"

Look around the room. is there anyone watching us? or additional guards?

>>30737925
really? I searched and I didn't find anything about claw parts.

No trouble at all sir.

So, on to business?

>>30737985
It's fine.

>>30737825
I think it might be better if we say we're not comfortable with this job and so he should find someone else but if he has anymore than n the future he can contact us.

"It's, fine Family trouble happens."
>The mysterious third stallion speaks up, Yeah, that kid's gett'n Sloppy ya know, Full of fuck'n angst and shit. Needs'a good slap over the head here soon," He turns to Judgment, "I mean, don't get me wrong, I love the fuck'n goof-ball but he's a fuck'n retard sometimes."
Judgment shoots a dirty look at the other stallion.
"Well, as long as he isn't part of this job I guess I'll be fine."
>"Mr. Hacker, I'll make sure to have him apologize. Now on to business. open the folder in front of you." Judgment commands.
Inside of the folder are pictures of an older looking dark pegasus a talon as her cuti-mark.
>"Her name is Crow's Feet. She is Princess Twilight Sparkle's Current head of security. The good princess has been saying things that... haven't set well with our interests. We want all of the information you can dig up on her plans moments and whereabouts so we can "Take care of her" To "Send a message" to the good princess." Judgment explains.
"Wow... Yeah...Umm..."
>"Do you need a drink mr. Hacker." Judgment asks.
"I, think so. as plash of scotch would be nice."
>The other stallion yells out across the room, "Ay! Peddle! Grab some scotch now will ya!"
A mare at the other end of the room nods and rushes into the back room.
>"Mr. Hacker I'm sure you have some more questions for us, and we'd be happy to give you whatever other information we have on the old bitch." Judgement adds.

>>30738103
Knew it! What kind of system are we going to be dealing with? Is there a deadline for this job? How do you want the information delivered? Does she have any cyber security experience or does she rely on somebody else for that stuff?

Where does she live and how old is she.

>>30738103
what do you know about her already? where does she usually reside? how long has she been head of security for her? is she a known supporter of her ideals?

>>30738103
she's military. what is her record of service?

>>30738103
How cautious of a mare is Crow known to be? has there been any attempts in the past that she's prevented? I'm guessing you might have had experience with her before.

I don't suppose she could be bought either...

"Alight, Just how old is she? How long has she been Twilight's head of security?"

"How cautious of a mare is Crow?"
>"Very."
"Does she do her own cyber security?"
>"I don't know for sure, but I doubt it."
"Do you think she might be able to be bought off?"
>"Mr. Hacker, She stepped down as the Captain of that ship just so she could become Twilight's head of security. She was loyal to the princess before she worked for her, I doubt that devotion has changed."
"Right..."
A mare shows up with some drinks and gives you a cup, which the younger unicorn fills with a bit of scotch.
>"Also, no close family" Judgment continues, "fortunately for her she has no spawn, so we can't really leverage family on her."
"Are there any other significant ponies on her security team?"
>"There's a bat pony named Night Breeze that Is generally seen as one of the armed guards. Former PMC, No information on her service, and Flashpoint, A powerful Combat mage from the Royal guard. No much information about him either."
The sip on your scotch and try to think up some more questions.

Can you tell me everything you already know about Crow and Night Breeze?

Gotta think of a way to gain access to their mail, and hopefully do it without notifying anyone. Sometimes there will be a notification if your mail was accessed from a different terminal, pda, or etc.

So there a time limit to this, or can I be precautions and take as much time as I think I may need?

"What about health conditions?"

>"Basically, when we put up the ad we said break'n inta the E-mail, as just a basic idea of what we're looking for. Really any information you can find that'll help us bump the old broad, clean like will be more than good. Oh course, we're gonna need ya to bring the information in here, we'll look it over and let you know if we're all square, or if we need more." The younger stallion states.
IT finally starts to hit you, just how in deep you are. You're about to help some ponies kill the God-princess of Friendship's trusted Security mare. You take another swig and realize how you've begun to sweat.
"Okay, just how long do I have to get this information."

>We don't know much about her staff, we haven't seen much reason to look into them until recent. But Crow,She's very direct and to the point, doesn't like many ponies. It's actually a bit odd that she has earned the trust of the Princess of friendship when you really think about it." But past that are ready to start, or do you still have questions?"
You look at a clock on the wall and it reads 12:37
[2/2]

>>30744073
Clocks ticking and I can't think of anything else.

>>30744073
>It's actually a bit odd that she has earned the trust of the Princess of friendship when you really think about it.
Yeah that's pretty ironic. I'm more or less ready. Jeez, only three days.

Who's that pony in the back?

I had a feeling from the beginning that the target would be a princess, but with the lack of evidence at the time I thought otherwise.

>>30744073
If something comes up before three days would there be a way to contact you? Also if I need additional resources or intel on something would I be able to request it or will I be on my own until the deadline?

>>30744073
Don't drink to much. We still have some errands to do.

When we leave keep an eye out for anyone that might be following us. As we leave by occasionally looking at the rear view mirror.

How funny would it be for the head of security to already be five steps ahead of these guys and expected this?

>>30744073
when and where will the payment be done once the job is finished?

Thank Judgment and his assistant for answering our questions and considering us for the job.

>>30744143
Probably if it's something reasonable. Say, if it's nothing expensive or simply information.

>>30744073
let's leave and get a bite to eat somewhere. Ask Brandy what she thinks.

>>30744162
Can you be a bit more general? Do you mean what she thought about our conversation with the Judgement?

Think we can find sometime for File to hit up a gun range and practice? Is it possible to but a screw on supressor attachment to his pistol that's disguised as some everyday item? Oh and sub-sonic ammo. A supressor can only fet you so far in the ways of silence. Unless you want to go byVista, logic, then a silencer is all that's needed.

>>30744200
>>30744073
*is it possible to buy a screw on

>>30744073
Three days is enough for low-hanging fruit. ...Maybe she has some personal email that's not so secure. Hospital records and on-line purchase histories are maybes. Ex-military, head of a serious political figure (jesus, I thought you were talking about the mayor or someone local), and a "very cautious" personality?

...She might simply be secure. Network security is like looking for chinks in armor. Holes, gaps, small mistakes the target makes which opens up larger opportunities. Sloppy loose ends which can be turned into their downfall. But... if she runs a tight ship, it's going to take a lot more than three days.

You paid for intel, and I know I can get you something. The job was to take a crack at email and that I can certainly do. I believe have a vested interest in having a happy client.

The only saving grace here is that she's old. I'm hoping her security forte isn't digital, and that she doesn't bring the digital resources of the military to bear, which is certainly in the realm of possibility given such a prominent role. Otherwise... **Looks them dead in the eye** Are you going to kill me for failing an impossible job?


(Don't mention you "need to go see the cops in an hour". DO NOT mention "cops". NO)

(And actually, her being ex-military could be useful. The military is balls to the walls serious, but they face a lot of advanced persistent threats. Remember how last year every government worker's super-personal info was stolen and leaked? Simply hunting around online for said file and looking her up could net enough juicy intel to make them happy. Don't mention that either.)

Look at this chilling dude. I already have a backstory for him.

He's one of the goons related to Judgment. Nothing to special about him other than his fortitude and perseverance.
He wants out of the business so he can settle down with his wife, but the boss gave him a near impossible task to complete...finding and killing a dirty cop that ratted one of their own out and costing the gang a good chunk. Only then, after he has finished the job may he leave.
He's here now at the bar to calm his nerves and contemplating what he should do to complete the job.

Can we go talk to him?

"Just two more things, If I end up needing something to get this job done like information or something, how do I contact you."
>"Send us a message the same way you contacted us for the job, depending on what it is, we'll take it into consideration."
"Great, and when we're all done, how am I getting paid."
>"Well give you the money in person in here."
>"Yeah, and hey, you get this done on time, and I'll let you have some of my wife's cook'n!" The younger stallion adds, "You do right by us, and we'll make sure to make this shit right by you. You do a good job, who knows, We might just come out of this best friends. But you fuck us? We'll I don't even have to say."
"If... I fail this are you going to kill me?"
>"Well that depends on how much you fuck up," The younger stallion answers, "Let's just say, we catch you go'n to the cops or try'na skip town, Well, ya ain't gonna live too long."
"I think I'm gonna go."
You take another sip of your drink and drive off.
You check your rear view mirror for cars tailing you.
"Brandy, just how fucked am I?"
>"File, I don't even know what to tell you."
"Ya know, I really should have become an assassin, I mean, I remember when I was a kid, my mom bought me this book on lock picking, and for a while I was really good at it, I probably could have used that to like, assassinate people, and like ponies don't fuck with assassins. Brandy, how much is a suppressor for my gun?"
>"Well, the license to have one is 400 bits, the suppressor itself is 1200 legal and illegal it's 600 bits."
You peer into you rear view again, you see a red minivan that has been behind you for a while, but it pulls off for an exit to a superstore.
"Huh... The black market kinda kicks ass."
>"Do you think you could kill for a living?"
"No... That's probably why I'm not an Assassin..."

You're feeling kind of hungry but you figure you might as well eat at the hospital even though you realize as you pull up, that you actually have plenty of time.
When you get to the hospital you are redirected several times before you make it to the correct building. by the time you do it's 1:47 PM. Following the instructions the police gave you you explain why you are there to the pony working the desk and you are given a set of instructions so you can locate the room you are supposed to go to.
After getting lost a couple of times you find the correct room. opening the privacy door you find Ivory laying in a hospital bed watching a ceiling mounted television. >Without looking at you she says, "You don't have to change out the piss pan, I haven't gone yet today. and Can I gt something better to fucking drink, or a pack of smokes?"

>>30744512
uhhhhhh...

>>30744512
Talk to ivory. Tell her we came to visit. what does the doctor say about the injuries? What kind of drink does she want.?

>>30744512
Uh, hey, it's me.

>>30744512
Drugs are bad for you.

Three days isn't a lot of time, so we should get started on that job asap. Have Brandy start looking into what kind of security we'll be up against.

>>30744512
Ask her what happened? who did this?

how bad are the injuries?

>>30744512
>Can I gt something better to fucking drink, or a pack of smokes?
I'm sorry ma'am, but hospital regulations prevents anyone from drinking alcoholic beverages or smoking within the facility.
I'm fuckin with ya. Sorry but I behave neither.
How are you holding up?

>>30744576
Duurrrrrr

>>30744587
Booze. What else? It's not that complicated. File might remember what kind of drinks she likes. Or maybe she's not too picky about Her choice of alcohol.

>>30744630
>Drugs are bad for you.
Like we're one to talk. And don't be a queer. Smokes aren't as bad as the stuff we're taking.

So the fuck happened to her right eye?
Was was in her eye Bath? Did she get an artificial one some time after the break up and stealing File's old computer?

>>30746494

And how much to install some home security stuff like sensors on the door and windows, a camera, wireless locks.

>>30746039
I meant it as a joke.

I'm not going to apologize because I'm stubborn.
I'm sorry for being so rude

>>30744576

>>30744512
Couple of ideas on getting info on Crow. For starters have Brandy search all social networks with the info we have (her name, where she served). I'm guessing we won't find much but even military people who keep to themselves tend to have a linkedIn or whatever the pony equivalent is.

Why does Twilight need security? Is she not all godlike in this universe?

In any case lets not forget she was the mare who looked homeless outside the supermarket that one time. So that can mean a couple of things:

*She doesn't need security
*Her security details was observing her from a distance making sure nothing went wrong
*Her security detail was unaware of her whereabouts and she decided to do this on her own without letting them know.

I'm leaning more towards the second so we could go back to where we saw her and look around for her and her detail or other places she might be trying to do the whole incognito homeless act. It's also been mentioned in other parts of the CYOA that she is in town and will be doing a couple of charitable events. It shouldn't be hard to find what's in her schedule and that should lead us to crow.

What was the purpose of File's server room again?

>>30749551
I hope it's a sweet ethereum mining rig farm.

>>30744512
On a serious note we should be careful that Judgement doesn't see us talking to cops in regard to our ex and assume the worst.

"I'm sorry Ivy, but this is a hospital, no tequila here."
>"Wait," Ivory turns her head to look at you, "I know you! Lunchbox, right?"
"Fucking really?"
>"Yep same old Cold File, What are you doing here?"
"The police told me to come visit."
>"How would they?.. Wait, Fucking pigs! I'm not saying shit, till I go to court!"
"No, I found you in the park, I told them I knew you."
>"Likely story."
"Whatever, What the fuck happened to you?"
>"I fell down some stairs."
"What, were they made out of razor-blades? I found you shredded and your eye there... And, your horn is missing."
>"Ivory sighs, yeah, that hurt..."
"What did?"
>"Look I'm not telling the cops and I'm not telling you, Let's just say it was a bad deal and skip this for now. I mean, you of all ponies should know about bad deals. Well, if you're still the same little sugar daddy I used to know anyway."

>>30750593
Will they be able to fix your eye and horn?

>>30750593
I want to check my hunch, vaguely describe the grandson and watch her reaction.

>>30750593
Well Ivory I'm here now. whether you want me here or not. I'm relieved you survived your "bad deal". This "bad deal" isn't going to come around again will it?

>>30750593
Take a seat beside her bed. Ask what's been going on in her life in the past few years?

>>30750593
>Well, if you're still the same little sugar daddy I used to know anyway."

Are you the same little mule that carries off people's belongings like I used to know?

>>30750593
Describe the stallion we saw arguing with Judgement and ask if that's who did this.

>>30750747
>>30750675

I'm not sure if there's enough clues for file to be able to put two and two together like that. also it could just as easily be unrelated.

>>30750593
Ask where she's living in town and if she needs anything from home.

>>30750753
It's a hunch, we doesn't need a mountain of evidence to have one.

>>30750593
Whatever, you're still an ass. They tell you I found you in the park? That 'I fell down some stairs' probably ain't gonna work, unless they're an idiot like you
So you wanna shoot the shit for a while? Wanna tell me what you been up to after robbing me?

>>30750643
Yeah right. Like we really care.

>>30750675
Sure it's smart to talk about this here?

>>30750786
I don't want to share confidential job shit with people that don't need to know.

Though we could try indirectly getting info out of her depending on how well you word it. Like if File were to ask.

>>30750593
>"I see you had this coming. So who's the douche that did this to you? Bet he was a real gentle colt huh."

>>30750793
Why not, it's just the two of us and it'll only go in depth if we pursue it after the initial experiment.

>>30750806
Are we telling her about our cooperation in an assassination? No, we aren't. We're just spit-balling some vague, valueless info to gauge her reaction.

>>30750808
You can try asking in a less direct manner.

>>30750826
How is what I said in any way direct? It's not like we're showing her a picture of the guy. Besides, surprise would allow for a stronger and more useful reaction.

>>30750824
Assassination? I thought we were talking about Judgement's grandkid.

And File could make a connection between Ivory's injuries and the grandson. Not that the two are actually related or anything. Could be someone else.

>>30750846

"Well are you the same Mule that likes stealing shit and running off?"
>"Oh come on File, it's been years!"
"Yeah, come to think of it that's the last thing I remember you doing. Tell me all those other times when things went "Missing" was that the same shit?"
>"Oh screw you File."
"What, were you pulling the same shit, with other ponies? Did you, date some pretty boy unicorn with a Light blue coat and green mane and go stealing his shit too?"
>"Not even close. File, you were always a needy little bitch!"
"At least I haven't had a body part lopped off!"
Ivory freezes for a moment and sinks in her bed.
"Shit... I'm sorry, is your horn gonna be?"
>She sighs, "No,it's gone."
"What about the eye?"
>"The doctors don't know yet."
You pull up a chair and sit next to her.
"Look, I was just worried, do you need me to get you something from your place or...?"
>"I don't have a place right now, but, if you're really here on your own, maybe you could do something for me?" She motions you in to whisper into your ear, "Do you have any drugs?.. I'll suck your dick..."

>>30750846
The point of this test is to do something besides an in depth investigation to see if there's a connection.
>Do you know somebody like ... ?
>WTF!?! (or) who?
>Nevermind.

>>30750871
Of course we don't carry that kind of stuff around with us, especially when we're gonna be interacting with cops.

>>30750871
first off which drug are you on these days?

secondly I can't give it to you right now as it might interfere with whatever the doctors might do and plus I'm going to be having to speak to a police officer soon and I can't have something like that on me.

So sorry, not this time Ivory.

>>30750871
wouldn't it interfere with your medication Ivory?

Maybe I do, but I ain't sharing with you. I'm trying real hard to save up for a detox, and maybe you should do the same when you get out of here.

>>30750920
Sssshhhhh. Not here.
But I am curous. What kind of stuff shes been taking? Hope it's not something like what we have.

Again back to the blowjob. It's really tempting (almost because it's still fucking funny), not to say that she's not hot or anything, but that kind of came out of no where.

>>30750871
>>"I don't have a place right now
Funny. If you'd not stole and sold most of my shit, I probably would have let you stay at my place again til you were back on your feet.

No but seriously that's really unfortunate, but I also can't trust you again in my home. Sorry. Maybe you should try the homeless shelter or a relatives place. You got any parents or siblings? Or other not so shitty friends?

>>30750871
here and now ivory? just how bad of need are you in?

>>30750871
if you don't have a home where are you even staying?

>>30750871
While not telling her this but maybe the followers of friendship might have something to help take her in and maybe help her recover and get treatment.

(it might even help us get a little closer to our target.)

>>30750871
Think I might know a guy who could help you with the eye. But that depends on what your doctor says, and my friend. Same goes for the horn.

....im referring to the rebels guys. Anyone remember how Bread (I think that was his name) got his cyber eye and from who?

>>30751024
>the followers of friendship
Who the fuck are they? I don't remember any group called that.

>>30751038
the people that are following twilight's philosophy. Tyra mentioned them.

>>30751056

>>30751100
>>30751102

really? I'm sure she mentioned a group that Twilight ran or was affiliated with.

>>30751103
If your so sure than can you go in desu or anonpone and find it? Because I'm not having much luck in finding it.

You don't get to use that on me now. You were down one horn and almost dead when I found you, and here you are in hospital still fucked up, and all you can think about is a hit? Why don't you tell me who did this, and maybe then I'll think about helping you out. No one else is gonna.

>"Please File, I love you."
I didn't know you took up being a comedian.

Can't you do some community service or something? How long and how bad we talking?

>>30751229
We really shouldn't. We have no obligation to help her in any way (aside from doing the right thing and not feeding her addiction), and we might get in trouble when the doctors find her high as a kite. They'll look at her visitation records and put two and two together. Drugging patients is most definitely a crime.

>>30752236
Course she didn't love him. File was just another colt she seduced and mooched off of until she finds her next big victim. Or maybe she's just a messed up mare with more issues that File.

>>30752487
I like where this is going. What if we offered the possibility of bailing her out of prison (if paying is an option) in the future, in exchange for knowing what happened. Strictly because File is curious and doesn't care about Ivory.
or So he tells himself. Some small lingering part hiding the a dark corner of his heart probably still cares for her.

>>30756523
well, which of us is in the hospital right now?

This boss, are you sure they aren't going to come for you again since you are still alive?

>>30756523
Yeah, and I should have figured out you were such a snake.
Mind telling me more about this boss of yours? It's not like you have anything to lose.

>>30756523
You might be able to shorten that by a few years with good behavior, and, do you know if they have rehab in prison. Whatever doesn't matter. You'll kick your fix.

>>30756523
Yeah, fuck this conversation. Just walk away. Go wait for the cops in the hallway.

Ivory is poison that we don't need and nothing good will come from interacting with her.

Some people hit rock bottom and bounce back. Other start digging.

I'm not sure we'd want to tell the cops much. Not that we have anything to tell them.

>>30756523
Ivory I have a feeling that despite your insults you want to see someone like me. You probably have no one else out there that still cares about you. At least I cared enough to save your life and kept tabs on your recovery.

>>30756523
look around, is there any cameras or listening devices that we can tell? is there a window in this room? what do we see outside?

>>30756662

>>30756523
>"File, you're a fucking loser, and you always have been, I don't know why I started letting you fuck me."
Ouch. You almost hurt my feelings. I won't deny I wasn't doing anything too interesting with my life, but unfortunately for you, im doing a hell of a lot better than you. No offense.
You should probably find something to do while in prison. I think there are programs you can take? Like, stuff to reintroduce you back into society or make you less of a shitty person?
Am I think of the wrong thing, or does such a thing actually exist in some prisons?

check to make sure no one is spying or listening in. Ask if again if she could tell us what happened. We aren't likely to rush off on some crazy chase of revenge but we want to know the truth.

Also ask if there's any family or friends we could contact for her. Does she have anything left of her own anywhere or is it all gone?

>>30756523
Time to walk away.

>>30756523
Seriously, do have any family or friends that can help you? I might somehow still somewhat care enough to call for some help when I found you, but there has got to be somebody else better suited for support.

There are about a million thing you want to tell her, as you walk out of the room followed by explosions theme music and doves, but not all of them really work together. Looking around the room you don't see any cameras or other bugs planted in the room,but, really without moving everything around to do a complete search, it's hard to tell if the room is bugged.
"You know, I hope I'm not the only one who cares enough about you being alive, Have fun rotting in prison you fucking Snake."
You get up and start leaving
>Ivory takes a while but eventually starts yelling after you, "You're just going to leave like that you fucking asshole! I'm the best thing that ever happened to you! You're gonna die alone you fucking faggot ..."
You shut the door behind you as you exit the room with a heavy sigh.
You turn down the hall before you smell the scent of cigarette smoke.
>A mares voice begins to speak, "It Zounds vlike zu are having zhe mare troublez."
Looking behind you, there is a mare dressed in a long tan trench-coat.

>>30756963
You can say something like that. You here visiting someone too?

>>30756963
Pretty easy with a mare that's nothing but trouble.

>>30756963
Yeah. Things could have gone better between us.

>>30756963

And you are?

Those troubles are over now.

>>30757022

Huh, it is. This is interesting.

>>30756963
You could say that. Are you here visiting someone?

>>30756963
In a way. stubbornness and past anger is going to cause her to live a lonely life.

We haven't seen her since she stole a bunch of our stuff and just left one day. Or something like that.

>>30757213
was that what she was doing? huh.

>>30757213
may I see your identification?

>>30757213
So, that's what she been doing? She wouldn't tell me even when I asked.

Did File ever keep tabs on Ivory?

I'm not familiar with the sports betting racketeering. Why, do you need some under cover agent or something? You offering?

>>30757213
Honestly not much. She broke my heart and stole my things years ago. Then in the park while I was jogging I found her battered and bruised body along with some foals that found her same time I did. Called the police gave them a statement and then came here to see her today.

She wouldn't tell me much what happened.

>>30757213
I didn't really learn anything from her. She isn't fond of telling me anything as you've heard.

>>30757213
maybe hopefully this conversation will end soon. we just need to remain calm and ordinary.

You swallow a lump in your throat. and try to calm down. Repeating to yourself that you don't shit shit you calmly open your mouth.
"Can I see your badge?"
>The mare sighs and pulls it out."Zou happy?"
You study the badge for a brief moment determining, yep it's legit, which only makes you more uncomfortable.
"I don't know anything about the sports betting racket, I'm not even sure how the odds work. and Ivory? We used to date and then she Stole my stuff and ran out on me,this is the first time I've seen her in a long time!"

Think I'm gonna cut out for the night here.

>>30757402
Stranger things have happened miss. I was jogging through the park. Saw some foals gathering around someone in pain and found her. So while it may be hard for you to believe it was indeed a coincidence. I wasn't even sure it was Ivory given how badly beaten she was.

>>30757402
Look, if I had something to do with this, why wouldn't I have just made an anonymous call and been nowhere near her by the time anyone showed up?

>>30757402
I just don't want to be broadcasting where I live to everyone, considering the situations like this I get in to; and how do you think I'm related to Ivory's condition?

>>30757213
>"Yet you zee it fit to lizt your official adrez to a PO box. Vich iz Very zuspiciouz, yes? and it iz only a coinzidence that you found zis Ex of yourz ven ze had been dumped in ze park, no? Zis iz zometing I can ignore?"

Yeah, it's a small world. Some kids were also there when I found her. She was cut up real bad. I'm done trying to help her though. Those days are long past and she's nothing more than a venomous snake. If you can put her away for a few years, it'll probably get her sober and that'll do her good. * I hope you catch who is responsible.

As for my address, my affairs are my own, and unless you have a warrant, you can politely fuck off**.

I came to check on an old friend and because you had some questions. If you're going to start turning your hooks onto me.... am I being detained? (And then just walk)

*Yes, I know the Princess's Bureau of Investigation doesn't give a rats ass about one druggy, hopefully that'll lead her to think I don't know that.

**DO NOT admit to any small thing as an excuse. Anything infringement is an excuse to dig more and will just be used against you. That said, FUCCCCCK The fucking FEDS are investigating us. Even if only tangentially, if they ever get a whiff that we're working for judgement, they'll fry our ass in an attempt to get us to turn on him. ....And we'd only ever agree to that if they offered us a network security job with full health-benefits to help us deal with our wing.

Cops worry about coming on too hard to potential leads. At least in shows. It's one of the ways they can fuck up. On the flip-side, it's akin to admitting there's something you're hiding.

>>30757402
It's no more suspicious than anyone else that's self-employed.

>>30757402
Here are my two cents. If you make File act cautious around law enforcers he may act so externally, which may make him seem suspicious. So if you guys want to play cautious so you in your post "I don't trust her" then....nevermind

>"Yet you zee it fit to lizt your official adrez to a PO box. Vich iz Very zuspiciouz, yes?
What. It is? Can someone explain this to me?

>Zis iz zometing I can ignore?"
I guess not. I'm curious myself to know what happened.

>and it iz only a coinzidence that you found zis Ex of yourz ven ze had been dumped in ze park, no?
That was in fact the case. I'd say both a fortunate and an unfortunate one as it's good that she's alive, but not so good on my part to see her again. She's still the same mean mare that left me. Maybe she'll change for the better in prison. I hope.

>>30757426
I'd suggesting asking those foals as they were witnesses, but they're just foals so not very reliable.

>>30760265
>Even if only tangentially, if they ever get a whiff that we're working for judgement, they'll fry our ass in an attempt to get us to turn on him. ....And we'd only ever agree to that if they offered us a network security job with full health-benefits to help us deal with our wing.
Maybe we can work something out with them. Say we were contemplating turning on Judgement but we were still working on a way to do it, so maybe we can work together?
It'd be pretty great if we could get a job.

>>30760265
>>As for my address, my affairs are my own, and unless you have a warrant, you can politely fuck off**.

Make it less vulgar and verbally spitting at her and you're golden.

>>30757402
Mind me asking why you became a detective?

>>30757402
Believe it or not, it actually was a coincidence we stumbled across her. Bumping into ponies you know does happen when you live in the same city.

>>30760474
>Stumble into Nadine when?

>>30757402
I get it, it's part of your job to notice these things but take the following into consideration:

Why is my address a PO box? Such that people like her can't steal from me again, already been burned once before.

As for running into her you can see how close that park is to my current residence, it's not that much of a coincidence, if it had been on the opposite side of town that would be suspicious.

>>30757402

"And why not, they are important witnesses. Shit, they were there longer than me."

"Well in that time, or any of the other time, you've been an agent, have you never seen a coincidence before? You must know that I live, right next to that park. I mean maybe if I was on the other side of town it would be different, But I live right there. Added to this, I didn't want to see Ivory again! Why would I!? She's a terrible thieving mare with a drug habit! Prison, is probably the best thing you could do with her!"
>"Did that make you feel better?"
The mares words burn a hole through your patience. You want to go off on her about how much you think she's wasting her time and the tax payers time... Well, if you weren't actually doing some shady stuff that she'd probably love to pin you for, when something occurs to you. You remember the actual reason why you have your address listed as a P.O. Box, and it's actually something that you can say without getting in trouble.
"Do you want to know why I actually have me address listed as a PO box?"
>"Thiz may help, yez" Her face not changing from her slightly pissed off expression.
"I'm hiding from my half sister."
Silence floods the hall as you wait for her to respond.
Nothing.

"Ya know, she's kinda like my ex, a fucking leech. She always tries to guilt trip me about inheriting my dad's car and asking to borrow money when she knows where I live. That's Why."
The mare stares at you for a moment, silently judging you.
>Finally she responds, "Makes Zence. I ave other plazes to go, Zo I muzt leave you. I am Zorry iv thiz waz, uncomfortable."
"okay..."
>"Unlez there is zomthing you wigh to tell me?"
You just kind of shake your head no.

"What?"
"Zaht iz how long I ave been on zhe caze. Good day Mizter Gold Vile." The mare ashes her cigarette in the hall and begins to walk away.
>After you make it a ways to your car Brandy speaks up, "Hay, You should get something to eat and take your dose of medication before we do anything else."
You remember that you planned on scouting out the construction site today, but it might be a good idea to get an early start on Judgment's job as well. Of course, it might also be a lot easier to concentrate on Judgment's case if you knock out the Governor's little job first as well...

"Y-yes Brandy?"

>>30765544
Have Brandy start looking for the information we need while we we get something to eat. We need some time to cool off after that.

>>30765589
*to do Judgement's job.

>>30765544
When we take the medication, it should either be at home or at our friend's place. Preferably at home. Its dangerous to travel while high. After that we can tackle either job.

I thought we came off as a little hostile to the detective.

>>30765679
Wait, how long would it take to recover from taking the meds? Also, all of our stuff is at home anyway.

>>30765544
Brandy is there a way to know if they are watching me? Without inadvertently getting their attention? The last thing we want is to end up casting more suspicion on ourself.

>>30765544
Let's go home and take our meds, then go scope out the printer site.

>>30765544

Let's pick up some food on our way home. Do you think coffee would work alright with the food and meds?

Also Brandy can you do two operations at once? start doing research on what you can find out about Twilight here in town, any known schedules or events, and anything else about her or the security about her.

Meanwhile see if you can find out what the schedule is for the work site, when they close and how many they have staffed there and who does the guard work for that place.

>>30765544
Brandy do you think I can get this job done with their deadline?

>>30765544
Do you think I did the right thing leaving Ivory there? She's still trying manipulate me.

she sure made a mess of her life...

"Well, I was kind of an asshole. Do you think I came off as too hostile?"
>"Maybe, I'm not sure. This is a, strange interaction. Not something I know too much about."
"Do you know how I can check if I'm being followed?.. Without looking suspicious?"
>"Keep an eye out I guess, Monitor our internet traffic. Not really much I can do I'm afraid."
"Fuck, I really can't think right now... Brandy, can I get you to look up some information on our subject of interest and the job site's hours while I get my head straight?"
>"Of course, File! I'll do my best!"
"Thank you. And Brandy? Do you think I'll be able to meet our deadline?"
>"For judgement?.. I think it's too early to know."
On your way home you look for something to pick up but eventually end up not being able to decide so you just drive home. During the Drive Brandy informs you that the construction site's hours are from 5:30 AM till 10 PM.
When you finally make it home it's 2:23.

"I'm a little hungry right now."

"You know, spaghetti hoops sound good."

You take your drugs injection a small dose of the Fabuloso, and some of your stress begins to melt away, as the hoops are served to you you decide to forget the spoon and dive in, giving way to your baser instincts.
>"Well I'm glad you're enjoying your meal File! Can I do anything else to help you relax?"
It's gonna be like, forty minutes or so before you should think about driving again. you look at the android sitting there smiling at you.
"You know You're cute when you're happy."

Do you do massages?

>>30765893
dispose of the needle and relax either at the tv or the computer. Ask maid how's her leg holding up. it's not leaking is it?

>>30765893
Ask about those other functions, and especially the massages, then watch the news.

>>30765893

"Could you, uhh... Give me one?"

You lie down on the floor.

"Yeah, I think this will work better on the floor."
The maid android gingerly climbs on your back, you can feel her staggered steps with her back leg as she gets in position to straddle you.
As she places her forehooves on your back you feel them warm up and pain you didn't even know you had begins to soak away.
"Ahhh... How is your leg doing? It's not still leaking is it?"
>"A bit, just when pressure moves the locked joint. My countermeasures for the damage are not perfect."
"mmm, I need to talk to Tyra about you. She might know how to fix you."
The maid begins working her way to your wings. As she places her hoof on the scapulars she presses down before you hear a loud pop!
>"File! That's not supposed to happen! Are you okay!" The maid asks.
You want to answer but everything gets warm, and the snake friend you just found looks like he wants you to chill. In fact there are a lot of faces, some of them bad but the birds are keeping the bugs away and that's good.

You smile and snicker.

"Pfft, Naw, Look at how different the school is, I mean, It's dancing without music. Hey! We should Find some right!"
"But if we find music, when will you do your homework?" Jeremy sagely asks.

Welp, dont think thats what was supposed to be in this needle. This is gonna suck.

Your hallucinating, there is no robot skeleton, there is no school. Lie down and focus on not hurting yourself.

You'll do your homework when you wake up yea? Sleep now.

>>30766353
I thought we took a smaller than normal dose of the drug. Why is it so powerful unless it's more concentrated in lower doses.

ask which homework is it? Have we studied for it at all?

>>30766545
The risk of illegal drugs is not that they are cut with something like cyanide that makes them more dangerous. It is that they can sometimes be so much more potent than usual, that the person using them ODS and dies, even if just taking a normal dose.

>>30766591
let's hope that's not the case. File doesn't really need to be in the hospital right now.

You begin running down the path, your legs feeling sluggish as you advance until finally you step out of the shower-room over to the pool. You teacher miss... You forgot her name gobbles out some instruction. You forgot to study. Looking down, you realize that you forgot your trunks! What if you get a boner in the pool while you're taking your test and everypony sees! What if everypony knows that you have a crush on Paper Mill!?
"I-I don't think I can take the test today coach, I forgot how to swim."
Genius plan!
The P.E. teacher doesn't buy it and demands you enter the water and begin your exam.

Your android strokes you as you sit in the tub. She's taken up the position of big spoon as your head is resting on her belly. The water seems to be starting to get cold, likely from being in the tub this long.

You lay there for a moment letting her stoke you, it's kind of nice. but eventually you get up and dry off. Brandy greet you with a barrage of questions about how you're doing, but right now you could kind of care less, as you reassure her that you're alright.
Brandy then informs you that the model for the printer has been converted into the proper format and is ready to be loaded, and that she discovered a social networking profile for Crow, as well as contact information listed in a royal directory. As you consider all of this Brandy adds in that the building is scheduled for completion in a month but looking at the scheduled she was able to dig up, the construction printer should be beginning it's work tomorrow night.

>>30773316
So tonight should be the night to do th3 printer job. We still need to find some hoodlums. Maybe an additional ensentive we can give them is the possibility of convulsing the mayor or 'your employer' that they will try to bail them out.

I remember a popping sound and a sensation. Any of you two know what that was?
Maid? What exactly did you do and where? Goddesses tits I hope you didn't break anything and I'm suffering from shock and don't feel it yet.

>>30773428

Ask Brandy how often does Crow use her social network profile?

>>30773316
Hack printer tomorrow and try for an initial hack on crow tonight.

>>30773316
let's go out and scope out the construction site and start planning on how to hack it.

>>30773316
let's see if we can't find out something about repairing that leg of maid's.

>>30773316
We should look at Crow's account.

>>30773537
Which is why I'm asking. What happened?

"Alright Brandy, I think We'll go scope out the construction site tonight. Hey, uhh Android? I heard a big pop before everything got weird, what, was that?"
>"I was pushing down at the base of your right wing when something popped into place... or out of place, afterwords you started saying odd things about a "Snake bro" and turkeys. until you wandered into the bathroom to "Swim,"
The maid informs you.
You give your wings a few test flaps which cause some pain to flare up in your right wing, but it's not that bad. Then again you did just take drugs for it a while ago.
"Huh... I think that's the first time that happened?"
You put on a coat and grab Brandy before hopping in your car and taking off.
On your way you ask Brandy, "How is she using her social network profile anyway?"
>"Well File,she's mostly posted pictures of monuments and federal parks. and some videos of her firing various guns. She seems to like guns a lot. She doesn't post much else though, besides a few re-posts of various statements about freedom."
"I'll probably have to dig though some of that later."
You park a few blocks away from the site, and trot to the other side of the street from the site, the missing building lets a bit of light shine down though the gap in the city. You can see all sorts of workers filing in and out wearing hard-hats goggles and reflective vests.

Stopping here for the night.

Here's an idea I came up with for the Judgement job. We find a way to securely contact her and send an anonymous warning along with the fact we'll be hacking her later and what our target is. Than between the message and when we do the hack, she could hopefully alter her plans so that she can foil or capture her would be assassins. Than all we need to do is make sure to cover our tracks and allow others to mess up or succeed on their own merits. I just want to give her a fighting chance.

>>30774053
>telling someone you're going to hack them later
>telling a high ranking government official you're going to try and hack them later
We shouldn't have accepted the job in the first place. They're fucking mafia poners. If we give them wrong, or potentially harmful information, they'll probably blame us and break our other wing too. We should just do what they asked, and get it over with.
It's her own fault for having opinions and sharing them openly.

>>30774122
Might as well help them assassinate Twilight while we're at it. Bellyaching about a decision that's already been made is pointless, our only options is, betraying them while working to cover our ass, Helping them kill somebody and ruining Twilight, or just delaying until the job is no longer doable and pissing them off. I'm not willing to allow Cold to become complicate in murder. We have the chance to shift things in her favor and possibly leading to the group that's threatening both of us to disappear.

>>30774169
>We have the chance to shift things in her favor and possibly leading to the group that's threatening both of us to disappear.

what do you propose?

>>30774188
Sending her a covert message and trying to get her to set up some stealthy traps into her itinerary. We'll get and deliver it at the end of our time limit, possibly getting an extension, and erasing any trace of contacting her. If/when the trap gets sprung, if it works, we make it look like we had no chance of tipping her off and that we just delivered what we were able to get. Than they'll be hunted down by her while trying to figure out who within their group leaked the info.

>>30774169
Twilight's a little bitch, and I don't care what happens to her.
Our options are to do what we said we'd do and not be a moralfag about it, or try and be a hero in a retarded way and likely get killed in the process. They're only a threat if we fuck them over.
There's no guarantee they'll even succeed anyway. She's military, and she'd probably be able to defend herself to an extent, and she likely has guards too. We might not even obtain anything useful to give them. If you want to be a little bitch about it, we can just get some useless information from her e-mails or something to show we made an attempt, and say we weren't able to obtain anything actually useful.

>>30774218
Those types are always threats from first contact to last. Just like our ex.

>>30774218
See:
>or just delaying until the job is no longer doable and pissing them off

>>30774229
Yes, I read your post. That's different from what I suggested.
If we just don't do anything, and come back with nothing, they'll definitely get angry and want to know why we spent all that time masturbating instead of doing our job.
If we show them we did hack her, and obtained information, they can't reasonably blame us if the information we managed to obtain in the time constraints didn't have anything useful.

>>30774264
>, they can't reasonably blame us

that's if they are feeling reasonable.

they might be more interested in retribution than reason if we get on their bad side.

>>30774264
Beating our head against the wall of government security until the job can no longer be completed isn't the same as doing nothing.

>>30774281
They didn't force us to accept the job at our first meeting. They can be reasonable. If all we manage to obtain is mostly useless information they can't do anything with, they will have less to be angry about than if we came back with literally nothing, or even worse, narked on them and got some of their pals killed or arrested. If it looks like she knew she was being targeted, they'll blame the only loose end they can think of.

>>30774307
If we really can't get anything, then so be it, but it'd be better to have something to show for our efforts if we can. It's better than saying we got jack shit. They'd likely be less angry about our failure that way.

>>30774318
You know, there's a possible twist to this job that'd fuck over your plans. The possibility that Judgement works for the government and all of this is just a test.

>>30774363
That's retarded, and has no logical basis to be even considered as a factor. If that is somehow the case, we're likely fucked either way.
If we do your stupid shit, and File get's fucked over and ends up in jail or dead, I'm going to hunt you down, and shit on your doorstep.

>>30774401
If we succeed, we could get a high ranking member of the government indebted to us and we could work that towards a get out of jail free card or a high paying government job. Also, The test thing is an extremely remote possibility and that's only because there are little things that could line up with it. Even without it, their failure is the best outcome and the best long-term outcome is if they are gotten rid of.

>>30774425
There's nothing that lines up with such a possibility, and you're reaching.
They're mafia, anon. If the government could just get rid of them, they'd have done it by now.
Getting a government job or member indebted to us would require us revealing our identity as a hacker, or associated with the mafia in any way, and then we'd end up jail. Even if we do somehow come out on top, all it takes is one of them to get away, and hold a grudge, and then we'll be the ones being targeted by mafia for fucking with them.
Stop being dumb.
The simplest and safest way to not get fucked over, or fuck anyone else over, is to just do what they asked, but not well enough that they can do anything with the results. We don't need to endanger our lives by being a nark.

>>30774455
You're overlooking the fact that the three day limit isn't a hard limit. If we don't get them enough information to act, they'll just give us an extension. The only way for your idea to work is for us to either string them along and continually feed them useless garbage , which would piss them off, or for something to happen to us that'd prevent us from doing the job after wasting some of their time. Also, no matter what, we'll be an outside party that knows that they were planning to assassinate somebody close to the princess and a loose end that will need to be tied up in some manner. Heck, they might decide to kill us even if they successfully assassinate her. As for the stuff you claim I'm reaching on:
Judgement: inside joke of the one who's job is to judge the one doing the test.
Relation with target: Crow is a highly respected and decorated member of the Equestrian military and there aren't many ways for somebody like that to cross paths with a mafia don
Time frame: Such a high profile job is being put together and done in such a short mount of time despite the fact that knowledge of the target being in the city around this time has been available for months due to Cadance's wedding
Intel: Not only is such a high profile job being done completely last minute, it's being done with absolutely no prior preparation and with no available intelligence.
And when I said extremely remote, I was talking about >1%

>>30773968
>You can see all sorts of workers filing in and out wearing hard-hats goggles and reflective vests.
It must still be before 10 when they're supposed to leave the sight.

Huh. Could have sworn that File visited the construction site twice. Am I goofin or did he really? Does anyone mind checking desu?

>>30774214
If we attempt any form of contact, we need to make sure we're not being monitored. That means checking our own computer for worms, fake IP's or dummies, and a little more planning and descision making as we continue with Judgement. To help Twilight and Crow, we need to gain a bit of Judgement's trust. You understand what I'm trying to get at?

>>30774218
>Twilight's a little bitch, and I don't care what happens to her.
Why though?

you're right about this to an extent. we need to show results.

>>30774363
that's some tin foil hat tier paranoia m8

>>30774425
You're idea is so out there that it's not a possibility. I mean technically it is, but really it's too unlikely.

>>30774455

>>30774496
>Heck, they might decide to kill us even if they successfully assassinate her.
Same could be said about all of File's previous employers. The samurai mare could have easily killed him in his sleep.

>>30774507
>You understand what I'm trying to get at?
Yeah. It was a bit further than what I was aiming for since I wanted us to distance ourself from the situation after we done our part, but I'm okay with doing more if other people agree.

>>30774538
I'd rather we distance ourselves from the situation and not get involved anymore than we need to.

>>30774545
That is literally impossible without suffering some consequences of completing the Judgement job.
Why do you want to distance File from the job?

>>30775700
It's literally not.
What kind of a stupid question is that?
Why do you want to stick your dick deeper into it? I don't want File to die, and I don't want to risk his life by narking on the mafia for a politician, of all things. She probably gets death threats all the time. The only consequences of doing the job "correctly" are that we get paid, and maybe dinner. They aren't going to come to our house and rape our turkey maid for no reason. We don't need to give them a reason.
If we contact the government and nark on Judgment, they'll either not care, or care too much. If we send anything, it'll likely just get tossed in with all the other anonymous death threats and assassination attempt notifications, if she even sees it in the first place.
I just think there are less dangerous ways to go about this. If anything, just don't tell her you're "going to hack her later" like a retard.

>>30776146
I agree that immediately telling her that were gonna hack her is retarded.

>As you consider all of this Brandy adds in that the building is scheduled for completion in a month but looking at the scheduled she was able to dig up, the construction printer should be beginning it's work tomorrow night.
Guys. back on the job at hand. Let's hear some suggestions on how we can deal with this tonight. Do we force the thing to start printing tonight and leave while everyone is distracted, or do we infect the printer with some worm or open a back door for solely us and to it'll make the dildo tomorrow when the foundations are set?

>>30776976
It'd probably be better to set it up to make the dildo tomorrow when it's scheduled to start building. If it just starts building shit unexpectedly before everything's ready, someone might get hurt.

>>30773968
>>30776976
>[Governor Honey Spout is calling for more regulation of construction companies after a rouge construction printer fabricated a 72 story building, on land that had not yet been prepped for foundation. The 72 Story structure is now in danger of collapsing under it's own weight. Governor Spout had this to say. "We can't let big construction endanger our children, just because they think it's too costly to check their equipment. I feel, I know that the public will side with me if they knew, just how dangerous these printer glitches are becoming." The Governor is proposing a bill that if passed would create an agency that would audit construction printers to prevent further mishaps.]

So we might not need a foundation, or we could just make our horsecock smaller, if it's hollow then it would make things less risky

>>30773968
Walk around the block and look around the sites perimeter. Is there spots to easily slip in and out? Any easy hookups for optical hacking?

>>30778307
What if the foundation has already been layed?

>>30778538
That would be best but right now we don't have much time. If all we need to do is undermine credibility so that the governor can push for the creation of his agency then all we need is to put up a show. No need to create a monument that will stand the tests of time.

>>30773968
>You can see all sorts of workers filing in and out wearing hard-hats goggles and reflective vests.
Hey guys, I have an idea. Could this be an opportunity for File to disguise himself as a construction worker and make an excuse to, "check the printer for any updates and manually update it"?

If you guys don't like that idea, there's always waiting by some window facing the construction site. Preferably something second story cafe, bar or resturant so we can get a good look at the security guards and their race. Then we can get to work

Another idea. Looking through the construction companies hired personel working on the site, specifically the security guards. After finding their info, if we're able, we can make send them a fake message to lure them away from their post. Or, at the most ideal of situations. The guards are lazy and are sleeping. Then we sneak in and do our work.

Another nother NOTHER thing. This has to look like an accident. It would be bad if people found out it was hacked, which would mean the mayor dude won't get anymore votes for his bill.

>the construction printer should be beginning it's work tomorrow night.
I'm worried about how we should go about tackling this. The construction site will definetly not have anyone around while it's working. At least not within the site, so small graces.
If we need to install a small bit of hardware to it to print, than we'd need to retrieve it before anyone finds out. Or not?
For some malware it needs to be able to do the printer job and be able to delete itself without leaving a trace of its a existance.


File should give his wing a few test flappies.

As you watch the workers you begin to feel like you might be able to slip right pasted the guards if you get a hard hat and stuff.
You give your wings a couple of test flaps and take to the sky to get a better look at the layout of the site.
You see three big gates with little shacks posted near them and several smaller doors in the fence that workers exit but cannot seem to enter.
There also seems to be a good portion of the foundation done, with a few workers still doing things to the concrete and a few more laying some kind of metal frame.
As you're observing from the sky you drift a bit too close and a robot flies in your way to block you emitting a hologram that reads, "Caution Construction in progress!" while the robot parrots this information from an internal speaker.
You decide to set down at the local furniture store while you think about what to do next. You want the printer to operate while the workers are elsewhere but, is it a good idea to have it build before the foundation is finished. Let's face it, your building won't be permanent, and really the more unstable the better for The Governor.
But, what if it collapses before they have a chance to give it a proper demolition? What id somepony gets hurt? Oh god, it's just like the judgment job! You might end up indirectly killing somepony. Of course it's always possible that they could fix this before it becomes a problem.
That being said, maybe you should make the model smaller so it has less of a chance to really hurt sompony.
And what about, Your job with judgment? Helping them kill somepony doesn't taste right, but you can't just keep failing them until they kick you right? Maybe you could just somehow warn Crow, but you can't just flat out tell her that you hacked her accounts, or go to the police.
You begin to panic, you are just so fucked right now!
You try to calm yourself down. You don't have the PPE...

>>30773968
>and some videos of her firing various guns. She seems to like guns a lot.
Tell brandy to grep through the top weapon enthusist websites and see if any of the usernames match euphamisms that Crow would use. They sometimes list (or at the very least have themselves) email addresses.
And... she's a government employee. We can probably just look up her official email.

>You park a few blocks away from the site

Alright, case the joint, try to figure out where the printer is controlled, or where to go to hook into it. Have Brandy scan for wireless access points, which is likely fruitless, but always a smart idea.

Scout out some street punks and talk them into/bribe them into tagging the building to distract the two guards tonight.

>>30776976
> Do we force the thing to start printing tonight

Yes. It'll be super-obvious if it gets going and the base of the new building isn't... you know... square.

>someone might get hurt.

There's just the two guards.

Also, we're literally helping with an assasination.

>>30778307
>or we could just make our horsecock smaller
That's not a compromise I'm willing to make.

>>30779828
>Could this be an opportunity for File to disguise himself as a construction worker and make an excuse to, "check the printer for any updates and manually update it"?
Possibly, but that's a lot riskier than doing the ninja thing at night when there's literally just two rent-a-cops that we already have plans to distract.


>Another nother NOTHER thing. This has to look like an accident. It would be bad if people found out it was hacked, which would mean the mayor dude won't get anymore votes for his bill.

Not really. Any sign that the printers aren't responsible and secure and they'll lose political power. That they can't simply be trusted.

There's no way a giant horsecock rising up in the city is going to come of as "an accident". No dude. No.

>>30780713
Maybe we can just replace the designs they are planning on using with our design and make it look like nothing has been changed. I doubt they'd have much, if any, workers present while the printing goes on.

Why can't we tell Crow? If we do it right, she might aide us in pulling our ass out of the fire.

>>30780713

We're going to be meeting with the mayor again after the printer job, is finished, right? Why not tell him? The assassination of a major political figure - or at least one of her attendants - would reflect rather poorly on him and his city, and might effect his ods of re-election...

>>30780713
Take a long breath and focus on the task at hand. We just have to trust that the worker ponies will do their job smartly and safely in removing it.

look for where the printer is stored. what are the entrances to and from it. does it look like there's a way to wirelessly hack it or can we tell if there's a wired hookup to it? if so is there a hack to hack and worm our way through the cable to the printer and alter it's design plans while making it look to the naked eye that the design portfolio had not been altered. Essentially masking the new design data underneath the image of the unaltered design map/plan.

>>30780713
Relax. If the building falls the mayor will be able to pass his law which prevents ALL future buildings from falling. If it doesn't fall, we still did our job. It's all for the greater good. Mental gymnastics to the justification and rescue!

>You don't have the PPE...
Plenty of time. We can just go BUY some. Stores have these things.

Poor sweet summer child. Listen, this isn't a happy-time story book. The people in power are typically assholes. If they were nice, they wouldn't have gotten into power. The world isn't fucking rainbows and thatched roof cottages and princess ponies. If you narc, you're going to get fucked, possibly killed. "Trusting the system and those in authority positions" isn't going to go well for a drugged up hacker with ties to the mafia. Low level scum aren't taken in and protected because they're not worth anything to those in power.

>>30780893

People in power also don't get there by being stupid. Letting bad shit happen to more powerful and important people than you on your watch is a good way to find yourself not in power anymore.

>>30780713
We've seen the site and it looks like we'll have to come back tonight so let's go home and start snooping on Crow then come back once it's just those two security guards.

>>30780713
let's take this one step at a time. let's find some PPE clothes and some of the gear we'll need to do this. Is there a way for Brandy to see though the cameras without tripping anything?

>>30780893
Who said anything about the mayor? Crow is the assassination target, head of Twilight's security.

You need to calm yourself, down. The ponies that will be dealing with your little prank, will probably know what you're doing and remembering what happened with the other printer mishap that the News talked about, everypony will be just fine. Besides, the Governor wants to make these machines safer with his government thing anyway right?
Shaking off your dead, you begin thinking about your connection to the governor. Perhaps you could tell him about the mafia plot. That is, if he won't throw you under the bus... and if he isn't getting paid off by the mob.Putting that aside you fly up to take another look for the printer. You're not, exactly sure what it looks like, but you assume it's the big yellow machine near the center of the concrete. Smack dab in the middle. Since you can't get a good look you fly over to a near by hardware store and purchase a hard-hat goggles and vest for 10 bits. it's now 5:15 PM
Satisfied, you begin making your way back towards the site you spot some teens hanging out in an alleyway.
