Monochrome

Almost done with Starlight's dress... What color are her eyes?

Done, Lilia! http://www.canterlot.com/gallery/image/5272-lilia-and-cherry-bloom-for-lilia/

((We're not in Ponyville, we're in Trottingham))

Mech looked to the door next to him as a tool belt was squeezed under the door. A smile appeared shortly on his face, then fell into a look of extreme thoughtfulness and determination as he grabbed the tools and began quick repairs on the leg. Tighten a bolt here, patch a hole in a wire or tube there.... It was not exactly fully functional, but it would do for now. Mech slowly and stiffly stood up. "We have to make it back to the lab. I'll explain there." he grunted, casting a brief glance back at the door. "Just hold on, Rusty! This'll be fixed soon enough!" he called, then proceeded to shove on forward, dodge past Fireball (or rather, what used to be Fireball), and make a stiff-ish, slightly awkward run for the lab, the others behind him.

Done, Stormchaser! Hope you like it! http://www.canterlot.com/gallery/image/5271-stormchasers-request/

"Ugh! Darn faulty circuits!" Mech grunted, seeming to be in pain. He shakily tried to stand up again, but his mechanical leg refused to function and gave out again.

Alright, great. Almost done.

"Just hold on." Mech murmured, exiting the room and slowly turning the lock. "Shouldn't be long now... Poor fellow. Not many ponies think of me as trustworthy, I must say..." Mech remarked. Fireball began to draw closer to them now, his blank gaze glinting in what light filtered into the hallway. The light brown earth colt with the fiery red and orange mane stepped closer. "Mummy?" he called hollowly, as all the others did. Mech stared for a moment, then seemed to have a sudden realization. "That's it! I know what caused this!" he exclaimed, drawing back a bit from Fireball as the colt stepped forward again. Suddenly, however, his robotic leg emitted a metallic screech and a puff of smoke, and the yellow pegasus collapsed on the floor, a puddle of oil spreading out from the leg.

"In the next room, but the door there has a window and can be locked, so you may find the bed more comfortable to sit on while we figure this out." Mech replied, leading Rusty to the next guest room.

Mech paused solemnly. "I promise. Now, let's get you somewhere comfortable... Can you walk? If not, let me grab some hazmat suits and somepony here can help me help you along." he said, his voice unwavering despite the distress he was obviously in.

So... I was running out of inspiration for a lightning-bolt cutie mark that doesn't look too much like Rainbow Dash's, Stormchaser, but I did think of something... What I came up with was a lightning bolt breaking up a cloud since you said his talent is cloudbusting. What do you think of that?

Aw, don't! Yours will be done very soon too, expect it within the week, Starlight. Admittedly, gala dresses do take some time, that's why I made special slots for them. Don't worry, I haven't forgotten you.

Mech looked back at Rusty, his expression growing horrified as he looked at his left front hoof. "Everyone back away! He's been infected!" Mech cried out urgently. He peered around Rusty, and sure enough, there stood Fireball with a gas mask and scar. "So it was you, you little rascal." Mechanical Madness remarked grimly.

Sure I can! Yours is in progress right now and will be posted next.

Quicklime, yours is done! Hope you like it! http://www.canterlot.com/gallery/image/5268-quicklimes-request/

"Presumably, Physical Dementia won't be able to get far. If both minds are set on only one thing, they are likely to not realize that they are attached and try to go separate ways. As for Fireball... Well, he and his two friends are just some young ones who I found wandering about in the forest. I suppose you could say I've adopted them. They took up residence in these guest rooms." Mechanical Madness explained, casting an uneasy glance at the radio. "But... This radio isn't plugged in." he added quietly. The radio continued to emit the ominous cries.

Mechanical Madness nodded briskly, then scurried around, looking for anything broken, and he soon found something. Near to the lab entrance stood a large glass tube, big enough to comfortably hold a pony. The glass was shattered and spread across the floor, and some things on the control panel were smashed in. "This project? But.... No, couldn't be this that caused it. A benevolent experiment. Tiny, airborne nanobots made to patch up injuries for those in battle and eventually the general public. They're all over now, they have probably even gotten into the air outside and into town. Look." Mechanical Madness said, waving a hoof in the air. Small, glowing yellow particles lit up around it, then faded to invisibility again as he put his hoof down. "I have to find Fireball." Mechanical Madness exclaimed decidedly, tying the foal on the rope up to a nearby railing. He dashed out of the lab and skidded around the corner into another hallway, which had three doors down it. He carefully opened the first door and stepped inside. "Fireball?" he called dubiously. No answer. He exited and opened the next door, peeking in. Nopony was visible, just a couple of guest beds and a radio. Mechanical Madness slowly stepped in. "Fireball...?" he called again. The radio suddenly switched on, emitting static. Suddenly, growing louder and louder, through the static they could hear those same ominous cries. "Are you my mummy? Muuuuummmyyy.... Mummy?"
