Virgin Flame arrives in Baltimare and makes her aqua intense with the staff of a Cathedral there. Spark goes back to Blackwood, helping a rebel and several wolves. Iron takes a train off to the mountains where there is said to be treasure. Silver is pleasantly surprised to wake up to the world-not-ending. Dark Star goes home for the night, disturbed by the forces corrupting the youth, and left to contemplate his role in stopping it.

Amber is able to make it home. She overshoots her street by one block, but she makes it home without being mugged or raped or kidnapped.

Honestly disappointed. A seven is not "gang-raped by Maarist cultists" territory, but would probably earn a mugging or at least a stalking.
This city isn't as dangerous as I thought it would be, she thinks to herself, yawning. She drags herself up the stairs of her apartment building, unlocks her door, enters, and locks it behind her.

Fortunately, the door seems to work. Hopefully the lights do as well. Amber has made it home, after a very long night.

With sluggish movements Amber pulls off her cloak and undoes her dress and throws them haphazardly to the side. She places the bundle of bills into her empty money pouch and collapses on her mattress. Although she feels like she could really use a shower, she is too tired to clean up or brush her teeth. She is even too tired to pray, offering quick thanks to Luna for the night before closing her eyes. She is quickly whisked off to sleep.
>>151967
She pauses for a moment, tries to imitate a smile, albeit one with many teeth showing. She moves her head back, the smile fades, her eyes go wide, and her ears fall down as the realization hits her.
"Let's... not think about it"
>>151968
As so, the little pony releases herself to the night, and to what dreams may come.

Plans for tomorrow are to go shopping for living essentials, now that she has a little bit of cash.

Amber groans and wakes up the rest of the way. She thanks Celestia for a beautiful day and brushes her teeth, takes a shower and brushes her hair. Tut-tutting at herself for treating her clothes so poorly, she puts on her dress and headscarf, though not her cloak, and grabs her money pouch and canteen. She heads out, locking the door behind her, and leaves the apartment complex.

She smiles, and looks back. Her mane is fairly well kept, and silky smooth.
"Well... It's about a mare and a stallion who are in love. You see, the stallion was of lower class, and was adopted by a family. And the mare can't really marry him, she has to marry a different pony instead..." She continues like this

The good and bad both of living on your own is that there is no one there to tell you what to do. Amber gets up much later than she is normally accustomed to, but gets out of the house all the same.
She is out on the road on a Saturday morning. Plenty of creatures abound. It's a bit cooler this day, with rain clouds lingering.

Amber rushes in and grabs her dark burlap cloak! Once she's outside again, she sets out west and along the way she looks for a cheap place to grab some breakfast.

She extends a wing. There is just a little bit of fur above the bone and muscle, and feathers over most of the surface.
"But I've been told she dies in foaling, giving birth to somepony else's child. So no, I don't think they get together."
>>151994
>Cheap
In luck. A diner is just down the street

She tries not to show any lack of trust in that a griffon is preparing her food. She orders pancakes, a good heaping of hash browns, grits if they have any, and a glass of milk.

"Oh, yeah. Well, yes. It's very enjoyable, whether sad or triumphant, to try to feel what they feel."
>>152000
Checked
Sadly, grits are not offered in the location. One more strike against griffinkind.
Pancakes and hashbrowns, however, are available. Milk is available, even if it seems a little suspect. Amber takes her seat in a wooden bench seat, and it doesn't take that long for the food to arrive.

It truly feels good not having to wonder where your next meal is coming from. She thanks the goddesses for helping her through the most difficult time and has high hopes for the rest of her stay in Baltimare. When the glass arrives she smells it to make sure it hasn't "blinked."

Not nearly as good as Ma's cooking. But at least I'll have energy for the day. When she finishes she goes to the counter to pay for the food.

At least it's cheap. She pays and leaves, going westward again and looking for shops selling household supplies.

I am, but I got hit hard with some bad news. Being distracted with a DnD session sounds good.

Rob it!
Amber looks for some much-needed essentials. Namely:
Soap
Shower curtain
Shower rod
A couple of cheap towels, both for bath and kitchen
A washboard and bucket
Clothesline and pins
Clothes hangers (she must have a closet of sorts, right?)
Toilet paper
Plunger
Broom and dustpan
Cleaning sponges
A few pots, pans and bowls
Waste basket or trash bin and trash bags
She considers getting a blanket and pillow, but not only would that be bulky but she guesses a furniture store would be a better place to get these things. An alarm clock catches her eye though and she considers getting one.

These are... not necessarily available in a general store. But anything is possible, if only she looks hard and far enough. Department stores several stories tall exist just a little closer to the city center.
48 more bits.

48 for items which she can find in the store or 48 for everything spread out over several stores?
She remembers she needs some basic hoof care things, like sturdy clippers, a file and a brush. What else could she need....

48 bits in total. The general store does not have waste bins. Well, waste bins you can remove from the store, anyways.

Reasonable enough. She gives the storeowner the bills, thanks him for the change, and takes several minutes to wrap up the paraphernalia in her cloak. She carries the makeshift bag on her back all the way home.

This is a bit... unseemly. However, it is not entirely ineffective. Did she actually buy the alarm clock?

Although she's thankful this is a weekend and could sleep in, if for whatever reason she stays up late again it could be a problem. So yes, she got one.

Oof. "Err...the clock is a little pricy. I figure I need one because I don't want to wake up late and lose my job, but I just got paid for the first time and I'm worried I won't be able to cover living essentials. I don't suppose the price could be lowered by just a little bit?" Amber asks meekly.
Rolling diplomacy: [1d20+4 = (15+4) = 19]

"Well..." The mare looks away, and her ears lower
"I can't really change the price of the items. It's store policy."
Though her head turns away, her eyes return to Amber
"But there is another clock that's kind of similar... and while the sale ended, it's still marked as the lower price..."

She smiles a bit. "I ain't picky, the cheaper option is good for me...but, um, I wouldn't want you to get in trouble." she continues.

It doesn't look as pretty, being a grey steel color, versus the golden brass color of the other.

She nods, and smiles
Amber's total expenditures for the shopping spree is now 58 bits, having purchased the alarm clock at 50% off.

As Amber has already paid her rent recently, she is unharrased by the landlord, although she does get watched by a zebra stallion downstairs as she walks up the stairs to her room.

She thinks nothing of it; carrying a makeshift pouch like that is bound to get a few glances. After laying out her things on her floor, putting her cloak back on and locking the door behind her, she sets back out again. Direction: a furniture store.

"Pouch" is understanding it
She thinks she saw a furniture store up north along the same street. Well, maybe one block to the west.

Is this the right place? she starts to wonder to herself. Still, it's probably better than being too fancy, because she's interested only in some plain-looking, albeit sturdy, furniture anyway.

Basic, straight-backed chairs would do. A cushion on the seat would be nice but isn't necessary. Is this like Ikea where you bring back the kit to build?

She takes mental note of that and walks over to the bedroom section. A nightstand isn't needed, but how much does a single bed go for?
