If Doc want to resist, it's a Wisdom DC 17. But even if he fail, it just comply him to calm down, enjoy the show and to like Risorius and the Plushietronics.

(OOC: I'll resist, as it is Doc's nature not to trust charm spells, but Doc was going to deescalate the situation anyway, so this basically did the job for him and the net result is Doc calming down).

Wisdom

 

Doc picks up some of the strips of paper that landed on him. 'Why are they wasting perfectly good paper?' He thinks to himself. Doc pockets some of it for later. He could write notes on this... circus?

At least the crowd isn't going to riot. The town's divisions mean Doc better campaign here to get everyone onboard his side.

 

He walks up to Life Knife. "Does this happen often? Or... at all?" he asks the mare. Doc suddenly feels something punch him in the forehead, and he reaches out to grab Life so he doesn't fall over backwards, but he puts a wing around her instead of a leg as a pair if feathered limps sprout violently from his back.

 

"Ack! owww... I... Oh, wings? No horn now. Well, this is a familiar conundrum. Oh, sorry." Doc lets go of Life. He shakes the drops of blood and confetti off his wings, wincing, but realizing the pain is short lived. Is there ever getting used to this?

(It was basicly explosion of diffrent enchantment spells. So if you want some quirky harmless side effects it might fit)

 

Life Knife seemed just as shocked.

"No. Not at all." She manage to shake her head.

 

"Um. You have wings no." she point out.

 

Greeda shake her head.

"Well, the feathers are nice to cuddle with. And the horn can be uncomfortable at certain.. positions." She say with a smile.

 

Life Knife:"What were we doing exactly?" she ask groggily.

[Digodragon]

"Yeah, seems like I got the wings back... kinda prefer them to the horn since-"

"-Accidental stabbings being an important reason Doc shouldn't have a horn, yes," Doc agrees, though still a bit embarrassed Greeda was so forward about that.

 

Doc looks around. He has a slight brain-fog from... something. The circus distracted everyone. What were they doing...? Doc tapped his chin with a wing trying to think. He makes a 'thumbs up' gesture with the other wing. "Oh, right! We were escorting you to Prof. I'm sure he will be thrilled to see you again. Lead the way to his office." Doc straightens up his armor and folds his wings to follow Life.

Wing = hands. (see edit history)

[igordragonian12]

And so the groups moves on!

Proff's infimary wasnt far- it was at the center of town, like the Atomic Punch Bar.

 

It almost looks like a pre-war infimary but with more dark crystals.

A donkey gets out, throwing away badnages from his hind leg, but has an expression of emotional traumatic shock.

He stumble into Greeda who almost crush him at the spot. (But it is assumed Doc stops her.)

 

"...I... am.. so sorry.." he mamble- it isnt clear if he apologize to Greeda or haunted by his guilt for something else.

But he trot away.

 

Life Knife enter-it is surprisngly a clean place, they actually see the zebra nurse sweep the place, in overly suggestive movements, and the reindeer nurse at the desk, taking notes in some large and forboding notebook.

 

There were fee waiting soffas, couches, even a small table with magazines and an aquarium made from dark crystal where small inky lovecraftian fish swam.

"OUCH! GOATDAMN THE TINY DOORS!" Greeda yell, as her head hit above the door, and crumble some of the concerte-

She lower her head pushing herself inside.

This raise the nurses heads.

.

"Ah." They look coldly at Life Knife.

"You back." Rather dryly.

 

Life Knife nodded and smiled.

"And thinner then ever!" she claimed with pride.

 

The reindeer looked at Doc.

"So.. what about the pretty pegas-boy and the k'hulk goat?" she asks

Doc does intervene to stop Greeda from crushing the donkey. As he watches the poor creature trot away, Doc feels like he remembers that look of despair in his eyes. Like... Prospi had that look when Proff treated her?

Doc looks a little annoyed at this, as he tried to get Life to eat more and regain her lost weight from the egg mutation.

Doc takes the pretty boy comment warmly. "It is I, Doctor Wagon, and my embiggened companion is Greeda. ...we've been mutated a little during our adventure inside the Brainroot. Speaking of which, I have rescued Life Knife from becoming a goat slave (or maybe a sacrifice) and returned her here safely. Is Prof around? I wanted to check in with him about recent events."

[igordragonian12]

t (heh. This is more or less the size I imagine Greeda at)

 

The zebra (who is also Sheriff Bright's sister) give at least a smile Life Knife"I guess you have defeated me in this round."

And they share a short glance of rival comrades.

"Why thank you, Zizani." Life Knife say arrogantly.

 

"Mmph. I guess k'he k'has a free window.. now." the reindeer say and opens the clinic-office with reindeerkinesis.

 

The door is black crystal and reflect just like a mirror.. but with green and disorted way.

Everything looks evil and goblin like, in the dark crystal.

 

Life Knife lead the way. Greeda wants to follow but stopped by the reindeer.

"Not you, Tankusha."

Greeda growl angerly.

Zizani trot and explain sweetly.

"The Proffesor has many tiny and fragile trinkets. Ms.. and you arent fully accustomed to your new and powerful body. Are you?"

 

Greeda is a bit confused at that. "Um-"

bUt the friendly(?) zebra lead her to the biggest soffs and offer.

"Peach syrup cans!"

 

 

Life Knife lead Doc into the office of Proff.

The office is a bit morbid but has certain aura of elegance;

The furtniture was made from dark crystal- the desk and the patient bed.

The chair at least is cotioned. The floor was made from a black shiny marble.

There were a shelf filled with categorized small dark crystals with... things that shifted inside.

Some of them looked green and evil, but some were colorful and had diffrent vibes- but all of those tiny entities of light seemed suffering.

 

But alongside the creepy crystal things, there were high quality convential medival tools.

Behind the desk sits a Crystal pony stallion (age ?). Deep gray shiny coat. Tall and wide shouldered, with a burning crimson mane (a bit wild a bit tamed). Has significant sideburns and wine-colored eyes. Wears a green jacket and over his left eye is a strange monocle scanner.

 

Proff greet Life Knife by extending his foreleg.

"Life Knife! Alive and prettier then ever!"

she kiss his foreleg and then he kiss her forehead.

He turn to Doc and tap strange monocole thing.

 

"This is you!'

he sounds shocked.

"And you have an established channel with an entity!"

"Y'all gonna kill your kidneys," Doc whispers as a concerned doctor of medicine.

Doc sniffs the air here. Does he get the sense of actual evil or does it just look sinister?

(Using Divine Sense trait)

"I won't be long Greeda, just relax with that snack," Doc says. This suddenly makes Doc remember those times Prosperity would bring him snacks during long hours in the medical office back home. He misses her.

Walking into the office, Doc can't help but admit the stallion has a theme and he stuck with it. He let's Life Knife do her greeting first.

"This is you!' he sounds shocked."And you have an established channel with an entity!"

"Yeah, I have... been places," Doc replies. "Forgive me if I don't kiss the hoof. Greeda gets jealous. Anyway, I accomplished your task some days ago as you requested, but on the travel back I ran into some goats. Like, all the goats. Well, to the point that matters to you--I rescued Life Knife from becoming a goat slave and brought her here. Possibly in better condition then when you lost her by what I'm hearing."

 

Doc normally would do acts of kindness for free, but Proff does not follow his rules. Therefore, Doc feels it is only fair to play by Proff's rules since the crystalline pony set them at the start. "So, that's one favor for escorting one parrot, and I think it is only fair to count Life's rescue as a second favor, wouldn't you agree?"

[igordragonian12]

Doc sense immense sense of evil.

It smells like a rotten version of something that it's very idea is anathema, he probably doesnt has exprience with this smell, but something like a pineapple on pizza, or something parallel in this universe- maybe fried scorpion in a cup of hot coco.

It's a sinister evil that push ponies to their darkest unrevealed corners of their soul.

 

~~~~

(BTW the monocole is basicly like a DBZ scouter)

Proff chuckle a bit.

"That quite alright. You arent nearly thin and feminine enough for me to desire such a thing."

he add "As for Greeda.. I see she is one who rules your relationship- so.. careful."  He pat Life Knife under the chin.

"Greeda might take additional lovers just to force you into giving more effort.

He nod.

"I do agree. What fair is fair. So one favor has remained. And since you are so competent and powerful.. I will keep it for a later date. Something more befitting of somepony of your.. status."

Doc likes pineapple on pizza. Unless this is the whole pineapple, then maybe it is a bad idea. Yeah, Doc could understand a whole pineapple. As for dark, unrevealed corners, Doc wonders what is in his? Maybe he doesn't want to know, since he is following a very... hot version of Celestia (in several ways).

Doc smirks at what seems funny to him. "Well not many mates can bench press me, so maybe I let her be the dommy cause I'm into it, but I don't think she's the type to pick up multiple lovers at once. I could be wrong; but she seems to be pretty interested in just me so far. We'll see."

 

"Glad we're we're in agreement then," Doc says, though he wonders when that future favor gets paid off. "I saw that the circus is in town. Maybe you should treat your ladies to a show. See you around."

 

You know that face you make when you leave a room after being inside with someone who smells like they don't bathe? Doc makes that face after leaving the office because the stench of evil is awful. He will have to be careful with Proff. Would Doc have made the deal if he had known before?

Well no point in thinking about what ifs.

 

Doc will go back to Greeda. "Ready to go, Gree? I need to figure out something for getting Clover and her colt settled in, but I'm not sure Granny is a good idea anymore."

[igordragonian12]

Proff was taken aback by Doc's confidence in his.. preffers.

"Well, just remember.. if you ever need anything.. for the right price I can get it from you. Laws of morality and reality arent a concern. Maybe we can meet at the circus."

He call behind him.

"If your can eater can allow it.." he add.

 

****

 

Greeda chewed on pile of cans of canned fruits

 

*crunch*Um? Why not? Because she is fan of Nemesis?" she ask as she get up to follow Doc.

Zizani wave her goodbye.

"Pfft, my ex couldn't stop me if she were twice Greeda's size," Doc comments, though not loudly. He doesn't say anything about the smell in that office.

 

He waves goodbye to Zizani, and as they exit the clinic, Doc answers Greeda. "Yeah. I rather not subject Clover to the ideas from a mare intent on genocide. I just don't know where we can find some allies to help your brother defend his kin... or make a ship-ton of money to hire an army."

 

Doc goes looking for where Apogee and Perigee live. He wanted to ask some questions, and meet this teenaged filly Prospi left behind. That seems weird. Not necessarily a bad thing; Prospi probably found a stray and brought her to town, like how doc brought Clover and Gazer. He'll have to check on them too after he finds these two mares Prosperity is working with.

 

[igordragonian12]

 

Greeda think about as she squeeze herself through the door.

"Mmm. I dont think we can allow ourselves to be picky. It's not like this granny is even trying to teach others her believes- even if she does, it seems she cant even teach her own grandson."

Greeda tap her amulet, that looked a jewel in a form of coin and paper money.

"I think it more practical to think what benefit we can gain from a pony. This granny respect you, for your headshot and healing her. Beside, if she is planning on leaving she doesnt has much time to influence Clover Wing.'

she shrug.

"And who knows? Maybe Clover's cutesy innocent attitude will influencr her instead."

The streets werent as intense as one might expect after Doc's and Nemesis's speeches.

Ponies have spoken about the circus and it's outrageouse cost.

"At least my kid can go and see it."

The circuse seemed to excite the ponies here quite a bit.

 

 

They ask around and get to a house that looked like a junkyard with a workshop. And it has a sign

Apogee & Perigee

A scrawy young earth pony mare(15)

dark gray coat with freckles on her cheeks. Her long mane is a midnight blue with black streaks. She wears a dirty jacket, stitched with extra pockets to hold things. Her cutie mark is a key opening a lock. 

 

 

She was gathering a specific kind of mechanical parts in a box, humming to herself.

Doc almost stopped walking. He slows down, and gives Greeda a curious look. "Wow Gree. That... That is a very mature and practical way to look at it. You sure you aren't just a horny earthpony?" He has to laugh a little at his own dumb joke.

"But yeah, we can't be picky. And maybe with a couple innocent mutants under the same roof, Granny might figure out she's on the wrong side before it's too late."

 

At the junkyard house, Doc waves a wing to the young mare picking parts. He keeps his distance, just in case she's shy. "Hi there! You wouldn't happen to be that lucky young mare Prosperity brought here to town, would you? I'm Doc, I'm Prosperity's ex, though we're still friends. This is Greeda, my companion on our quest. I wondered if you know where Prospi went off to? She was probably accompanied with a red unicorn, Red Shield. A bit grumpy sort of lady? I understand if she's not coming back for a while, I just wanted to make sure she was okay."

Greeda tap the element again.

"Well, I might be inspired by the element... I want to grow in all meanings of the word." Greeds say and smile happy with Doc's praise.

"Also... you and Prosperity understood where me, Gengar and even the other goats are coming from. If I hope to change how things.. I should at least TRY to be like you and Prosperity."

 

----

 

She is a bit doe eyed, surprised at the sudden conversation.

"Umm.. yes. They were-"

Then she fold her ears.

"Umm. Arent you supposed to be.. an Earth pony?"

Doc seems to glow with pride in Greeda. He hopes more folks will start thinking like that.

"Umm. Aren't you supposed to be.. an Earth pony?"

"Hmm? Oh, yeah, I was at one point," Doc said, forgetting what form he took. It wasn't even his final form.

Doc flaps his wings a bit, but not enough to lift off the ground. Just to remind himself he has them. "Yeah, I was mutated by someone. The wings are useful now and then."

 

"Prosperity is a good judge of character. She must see good things in you." He approach a little closer. "So what's your name?"
