『 070 』 ponies on fire...

[srslynotguy]

Did anyone else turn into ponies overnight? We're going to need help putting out the fire in Rita's room...! Tyr? Rita? Are you alright?

[ > Implying Tyr and Rita sleep in the same room together. ]

Tyr and...

[Oh well! Something like that could cause a fire?]

I can come if you still need the help. Is everyone ok?

[srslynotguy]

For now, it seems nobody was harmed. That fire apparently left a hole in Tyr's wall, though.

[eagleofautozam]

That is a relief! What were they doing to cause a... Maybe I shouldn't ask.

[srslynotguy]

According to Tyr, the fire was a result of Rita waking him up with a fire.

[eagleofautozam]

She couldn't just have given him a shake? Fire is a bit extreme.

[He laughs. ]

Then again this is Rita.

[srslynotguy]

[ laughs with you. ]

Yes. It was very effective though, I imagine.

[eagleofautozam]

It would be difficult to sleep through an explosion like that, yes. Was the house very badly damaged? We could get our hooves together and rebuild.

[srslynotguy]

There's a new hole in the wall now, I'm told, but I've decided we may as well wait until we're back to our normal forms.

And possess fingers. These hooves, as efficient they may be for moving around, may prove to be difficult to use for mending that hole.

[eagleofautozam]

That's true, though dragging all of the supplies to the house would be really easy. Just strap a cart on, fill it up, and you could pull it anywhere.

[srslynotguy]

Yes. Exactly. But slapping plaster on the walls with nothing but our hooves may do more harm than good.

[eagleofautozam]

Plaster can make such a mess too... It might be better to hire professions whether we are cursed or not.

[srslynotguy]

We're used to having to plaster our walls by ourselves now. I can't count how many times we've had holes in the wall as a result of a curse or two.

[eagleofautozam]

Is that so?

You must have a very tough time with curses.

[srslynotguy]

I suppose so. It also helps that a number of us live in a single house.

[eagleofautozam]

I'm sure that is a factor. With only Lantis and I living together we some how manage not to destroy very much... and when a curse does happen, strangely it usually destroys the door...

[srslynotguy]

Just the door?

[eagleofautozam]

I have no idea why. I have had to replace that thing so many times.

[srslynotguy]

A door is a lot easier to replace, at least.

[eagleofautozam]

It is unless it has to be sized to fit properly. But, I can imagine wall repair must take more effort and skill.

[srslynotguy]

I've learnt in my time here that paint and wallpapers help a lot.

[eagleofautozam]

Anything to hide the destruction of the past?

[srslynotguy]

[ laughs. ]

Yes. And any flaws our repair work has left behind.
