BrainedBySaucepans sounds so impossibly British. Like if I was from another country and I had to picture a British person speaking, this would be it XD Great episode! I Look forward to the next one!

Back in business. Updates have been made to the cutie-mark story, summary and a little extra bit has been added Thanks for your patience! XD

It is quite interesting! I imagine that if weapons had to be made for use in Equestria, whoever makes them would take into account the easiest way to use them. This seems to be by designing weapons to be wielding using their mouth but I still think some weapons could be made to work with hooves. Perhaps like the guard you would see on a cutlass but used as a grip around a hoof, maybe tightens by way of a strap or something...If that makes sense :L As for hoof to hoof combat you actually get to see a little bit of that in the big fight with changelings! Rainbow Dash totally uppercuts one I think.

Not much to do here but drink and have a little costume party. But hey it's all good fun!

Things have been rather hectic lately. I understand I keep saying that I will update it but don't :L Uhm I think I might take this back down to WIP and make some more changes. I want this app to be perfect!

The Seventh Lament began to pull away from the clouded ship where woodwind was returning. The gunners lowered their barrels and the swords-ponies sheathed their blades. Allegro kept her eye trained on the ship until it was long out of her range of vision. The captain had proved to be eccentric, that much was true. That didn't mean he was harmless though. A murderous face could lie behind the clouded veil of mystery strewn across Woodwind's muzzle and eyes. [colour=#b22222]"He mentioned something about a battle. You! Scan the surroundings,check for signs for anything out of the ordinary." [/colour]The pony from the crows nest was just reappearing from below as this new order was placed upon her shoulders. [colour=#b22222]"Oh and it seems that we won't be needing that crystal just yet." [/colour][colour=#000000]The poor mare on the receiving end simply sighed and then stashed the crystal away in her jacket.[/colour] Today wasn't a good day for her but Captain Allegro was a good captain, even when she buried her crew beneath chores and missions. It acted as a conditioning of some sort. Exercise. She flew back up to the crows nest and flipped out a large lengthy spyglass. "There appears to be a battle off to the north. I see a navy flag. Uhm...Oh! Off the starboard bow! There's signs of a wreckage!" The words hit Allegro's ears and shot a shiver down her spine. The navy. [colour=#b22222]"As much as I'd like to punch several holes in that ship I'd rather keep this new lick of paint firmly on our boat. Pull down the colors and stow the cannons. Weapons below deck and only the absolutely essential crew-ponies on deck. This is a legitimate salvaging ship. Am I right?" [/colour][colour=#000000]Within seconds the crew of the Seventh Lament[/colour] were hard at work following her orders to the letter. A loyal "Aye aye!" boomed across the ship as they all hustled to and fro hiding any dead giveaways of their current line of work. Allegro casually trotted with grace across the deck and up towards the blind pony handling the wheel. One of her most trusted members. [colour=#b22222]"Well. You heard her. Take us across and keep at a steady pace. Inconspicuous is the plan."[/colour] [colour=#000000]Allegro patted him on the back graciously and turned her vision towards the wreck. Booze? Money? Priceless art work from foreign nations? Whatever the spoils were Allegro was happy. Free things were hard to come by without a fight. Admittedly the thought of appearing as a vulture both repulsed and intrigued Allegro.[/colour] On one hoof she was ashamed of picking from another kill but at the same time it was keeping her possessions and her crew out of the firing line. "Miss Allegro. A moment?" The captain turned to face the stallion behind the impeccable manners. [colour=#b22222]"Yes?" [/colour][colour=#000000]He moved towards the water and started to fumble with a symbol hanging from his neck. It appeared to be some form of religious relic. A relic in the shape of a sun. "I would like to ask something about our current venture. Salvage is fine but what of any survivors we may happen across?"[/colour] An evil grin crept out from Allegro's calm demeanor. [colour=#b22222]"There are none." [/colour][colour=#000000]Within moments the Seventh Lament was sitting above the now lost [/colour]Reaper. Allegro began to play once more. The water crystal firmly in place inside her Violin. Within moments again barrels and crates began to float towards the top of the water. The crew moved into position ready to haul it all on board.

Uhm. Somewhat slow :L I've been rather busy! I will update later today!

Pretty late but still! Huge congratulations to you two! Best of luck and I hope you enjoy many awesome years together! XD

As the cloud style ship soared down from above and started to hover Allegro couldn't help but find herself somewhat taken aback by the rather strange design. What it lacked in practicality it most certainly made up for it with beauty and elegance. Though it was so frail for such a large object. A single cannon ball would tear through the soft cloud hide of the ship and leave it in two. Now her thoughts began to sway towards a more destructive scenario which involved her standing atop the crows nest belting out various damaging strikes with her violin and the soon to be charged cloud crystal. With each note struck she would envision a magical blade shooting out from her very aura, hurling towards the ship in the sky. Although the crew of said ship did not come for a fight. Or at least that's how it seemed. Their rather comical captain was floating just above the Seventh Lament's deck wearing what appeared to be some form of cloud mask. An oddity if there ever was one. As he complimented her on the music she simply nodded whilst trying to make some form of sense of the situation. With a very puzzled look on her face she leaned over to share a brief word with the pony formerly atop the crows nest. [colour=#b22222]"It's not just me. This is is strange is it not?" [/colour][colour=#000000]Allegro turned back before listening to the answer and addressed the other captain.[/colour] [colour=#b22222]"Wait. What is your business here? Help us gain safe passage? Look around! We need no..Body guards!"[/colour] With haste Allegro quickly spun away to face the crows nest pony once more. She quickly gave subtle unvoiced orders to retrieve the cloud crystal. As they made there way through the crowd to below deck Allegro continued on her quest of knowledge with this new ship. [colour=#b22222]"I know it's not very courteous of me to have all these guns aimed at you. But surely you must understand my caution. I will state this now however. Said guns are currently a precaution. If you do not leave now. That might change.[/colour][colour=#b22222]" [/colour][colour=#000000]She outstretched one hoof to the side and it was quickly filled with a heavy object. A weapon of some sort. A nockgun[/colour] to be more precise. A seven barreled heavy flintlock firearm given to her from a crew member standing just to her side. [colour=#b22222]"I do thank you for the compliment though. Manners and such are a hard thing to come by out here[/colour][colour=#b22222]. It would be a shame to find the world suddenly lacking one with such traits."[/colour]

Every time I see something new that they have added I find myself feeling somewhat weary about it. But then 343 just bat that away with careful explanations and footage and all is well. It really looks set to be an amazing game! XD

(OOC: I just remembered that Red Stripe is a brand of beer...I thought I'd share that XD) The Seventh Lament was slicing through the water like any well kept blade would cleave the limb from an enemy. An appropriate comparison given the ships rather fine slender appearance. Her captain stood triumphantly at the base of the vessels bowsprit looking out over the fast encroaching sea. The day had started off quietly enough, although Allegro was starting to hunger for action. The burst of energy from the chase. The thrill of the kill. Feelings that were starting to seem like a fading memory. Though she and her crew were most certainly not out of practice. She took great care in keeping them in prime shape ready for a fight at any time. Swords, guns, bombs, they could use the lot. In fact she even designated ponies assigned classes. Some of her crew had shown abilities she would consider to be on par with her own and this was a valuable asset to her array of weapons. Allegro would treat her crew and boat in battle like an extension of her own body. A quiet and almost fearful voice called out from behind her on deck. "You...Um...You wanted to see me Ma'am?" [colour=#000000]Allegro swiveled and made her way down to greet him face to face. She gracefully placed a reassuring hoof on his shoulder to calm the somewhat shaky elderly stallion.[/colour] [colour=#b22222]"Don't be scared master enchanter. I called you out here to take this." [/colour][colour=#000000]Allegro revealed a small blue crystal that seemed to have clouds moving within it. [/colour][colour=#b22222]"It's the last of our weather crystals and I want you to charge it below deck so it's ready for use. The water crystal should be primed and ready from last time?" [/colour][colour=#000000]The master enchanter fumbled around his clothing looking for the water crystal and as he found it he juggled it from hoof to hoof like a bar of soap escaping from ones grip.[/colour] The crystal flew out up and into Allegro's grasp as she snatched it out of the air. [colour=#b22222]"Good, good. Well done. Now go on before you drop that one eh?" [/colour] [colour=#000000]Allegro wasn't sure that her attempted humor had met him as he darted off with speed to where he needed to be. She sighed and started to place the water crystal[/colour] into her violin. With a faint crack the stone fit neatly into the base of the instrument and she began to play returning to her position at the bow. The crew was in full swing enjoying her music as they went about their duties with military precision when suddenly a voice rang out from above. The pony on the crows nest shouted down to inform Allegro of the situation. "CAPTAIN! A SQUAD OF FLYERS ARE DESCENDING QUICKLY." The water was now starting to slightly change form and direction beneath the ship as Allegro picked up her pace and her horn started to burst with magic. [colour=#b22222]"Well. Do with it as you would any other day!" [/colour][colour=#000000]The crew turned and trained their rifles and pistols towards the sky. A third voice boomed from the deck. "READY. LEVEL. F.." Just like that the order was cancelled as the pony in the crows nest grabbed hold of a rope and swung down to snatch a wooden speaking horn from the pony giving the order.[/colour] [colour=#000000]"But Miss! They don't seem to be in attack formation!" [/colour][colour=#000000]Now slightly angered by the constant interruptions Allegro turned to take charge of the situation.[/colour] [colour=#b22222]"What is going on. Who are they..." [/colour][colour=#000000]She plucked out a spy glass and trained it on the group of Pegasi.[/colour] [colour=#b22222]"Hmm. Keep your weapons trained on them. If they try anything appropriate actions is to be taken."[/colour]

Ah Borderlands 2 has struck at a bad time :L Well here goes! I'm going to start from the end of that for a certain reason. "Ponify" I must admit that this character is actually just myself ponified. My current part time job is working in a brewery that specializes in craft beer. Hence a lot of the information about Pale Ale. It's something that, having only recently discovered, I've found myself being quite passionate about it. This is why I have choose to stick to ale's and such. I know enough about them to hopefully make it work! I do agree with you about the cutie mark story though. I will work on very soon! Thanks for the help. It's much appreciated.
