He smiles,
“Silver Heel”
He has to wait a while, but High Sewn comes back with the vest. He puts it on. It actually does look impressive on him. He needs the fedora, but it makes a difference over his light brown fur and darker brown mane.

Indeed. Guy is demonstrating just a bit of coldness again, and High Sewn has been doing her own thing. Mostly the afternoon is uneventful. Things happen, to be sure, but nothing so dramatic as the Friday before.

She asks High Sewn, "Ma'am, when can I receive my pay?" with a concerned face and tone of voice. After all, this influences whether she has to survive off scraps.

Before Amber starts, she takes the time to write out the rest of her letter.
At the restaurant I work at I've met a very nice colt named Mustard Trim, who is my age and of a similar coloration, though his mane and coat are darker and he has blue eyes. He works very hard as a waiter there at the same times I work as hostess, not to mention he's studying in school to become a carpenter. Mustard has been sweet and honest, and this Sunday I went to church with his family and stayed for lunch and dinner. He has a big sister named Veneer, who is only one year older than him, and his mother Dahlia Day works in assembling typewriters to support the both of them. Mustard lost his brother and father in the war and I feel terribly sorry for this family. Mrs. Dahlia is pushing her son to start a family, and I've entertained the thought of marrying Mustard though it's so sudden. Would I be too hasty? What are some things I should look for or ask about before agreeing to it?
Amber considers tying in her experiences at the Club Maurice, the pool or the cliffs with Mustard. However, she's unsure how her parents would react to simply finding out she has a coltfriend already, let alone any of the more intimate things she has done with him since. Also, it would mess up the pacing and she's running out of room on this sheet of paper.
I am already settled in comfortably and am learning to adapt to Baltimare's strangeness. Don't worry about me, I am keeping myself safe. How are you doing? How is Myrtle, (her sister) her house and foal? How is Grange (her brother) doing? Already it seems like city life is moving so fast compared to farm life back home, but please keep me updated. I love you and I'm keeping you in my prayers!
Love,
Amber
P.S. it's not much, but here's some of the first bits I've earned. I promise to send more appreciable amounts soon.
She folds the letter around a ten-bit bill and places it in an envelope, sealing it shut. She addresses it to Heath Recusal and Amber Note, writes down her old address and puts a stamp on it. She'll deliver it later.

If it was Amber's intent to avoid a public display of affection, she fails. Mustard Trim immediately moves his own hooves around her in a somewhat tight hug, and the two are quickly standing on their hindlegs, supported by each other.
"It was okay. I had a Physics quiz in the morning. It's much better now that I see you" he says

Podium. By the entrance, with a little open space off to the left and right. A small amount behind, though there are tables. Lighting includes some natural sunlight from outside, and yellow indoor light. It isn’t perfectly illuminated, snd is a bit dim at night.

Monday nights aren’t especially busy. The restaurant is again manned, er, ponied by Saltlick at the bar, Melon Mangrove in her familiar section upfront, De Sew in her section in the back, and Mustard Trim awkwardly taking the tables of the big parties and the high tops in the back. There’s a statement by Salt Mixer that single stallions go to Melon Mangrove (when they don’t head to the bar), big parties go to Mustard Trim, those with children go to Mustard Trim, couples without children go to De Sew, and generally to grant requests for a specific waiter, which is almost always De Sew. More or less it’s the same situation as Amber’s first night.
Amber is taunted by the smell of fresh bread, of spicy goulash, baked sandwiches, and boiled fries. The whole night.

She keeps these instructions in mind and repeats them to herself. The temptation of delicious food spoils her mood somewhat, but she stays cordial to the customers and directs them to their specific places, a bit more adeptly than last week. Less business definitely helps.

A young mare and stallion with one, two, three foals.
A slightly older Diamond Dog... female, you know the technical term, with four pups.
One elderly couple.
One middle aged mare, and an adolescent colt

3 Mustard 2 De Sew 1 Melon Mangrove...
Amber should remember that hostesses who under assign are hated for the lack of tipping customers, and those who over assign are hated for the excess of work. She will absolutely be judged. Mustard Trim has been forgiving because he's also new and low on the totem pole, she's friendly to him, they have similar backgrounds and age, and most likely he hoped to get under her tail. De Sew and Melon Mangrove, however, are a bit closer to Salt Mixer. Especially De Sew.
A few more tips Salt Mixer gives Amber:
Waterfront gang is generally understood to have its own restaurants they frequent. They don't show up here very often, and if they do, you don't necessarily know because they don't tell. But if you suspect you are dealing with them, be extra nice and courteous. More senior wait staff (De Sew is most senior) is preferred for these.
Baltimare Police Department Officers are a favored class who receive discounts. They come in single and in groups throughout the day, including and especially in non-busy hours. They are favored because they scare off potential rapscallions. They also come with families at night. They are both male and female, tending male.
Occupation Soldiers are very strongly liked by Salt Mixer, though De Sew and the other staff dislike them. They are almost always male, and they come usually in pairs or groups, sometimes with mares, usually without. They money and love spending it at the bar. Do not attempt to segregate them from single mares, they will notice and they will not like it. They usually go to the bar, but if they don't, let them have their backs to the wall and face entrances. Some patrons, especially older patrons, dislike occupation soldiers and should be segregated as you notice it.
In comes a charming stallion in a coat and fedora with a mare around him.
A single elderly mare.
A mare and two foals.
A colt, a stallion, and a zebra stallion (all within 4 years of each other in age)

De Sew works diligently, but has more than enough time to chat with interested tables. Melon Mangrove has a less busy section and is underworked, if anything. Mustard Trim has the most tables with the biggest parties and the neediest customers, and the least ability to handle it. He looks stressed and anxious.
Two single mares, slightly older (late twenties? 30s?) Walk in

It looks like he got an order wrong on one of the larger tables. Well, at least one larger order. So he’s frantically going back and forth between the kitchen and a table, often having to take other orders, remember them, forgets them out of stress… At least he’s getting practice for his next run. He almost has that kicked dog look.

She thinks about this. She's only ever had alcohol in small quantities before, but you can't argue it doesn't help to relax. 'I suppose, but I can't afford one right now."

She thinks about what drinks are good, and realizes that she's totally ignorant of the topic. Well, what did her father drink, surely he has good taste, right?
"Whisky."

"One shot of..." she takes a semi random bottle, and pours a shot
The bowler cap pony moves over to the seat next to her, smiling.
"So. Tell me a bit about yourself. What brings you to work here?"

He takes his own sip.
Amber's whiskey is not diluted by fruit juice, or anything. It's pure whiskey.

Mustard Trim does not seem to have noticed Amber walk off and accept free drinks from a stranger, lying about her age to do so, and doing so within a few minutes of closing and while her coltfriend was basically still in the same room.
He is cleaning up a few tables.

He works with a half smile, and a determined diligence unlike the scared and frantic pace she observed in him earlier.
Amber recalls her dream. Mustard looked exasperated, angry, raising her voice at her, and pleading with her not to go with the mysterious orange stallion who wore the dress of a yak maiden. He looked like he wanted to tell her that if she left with him, they were over, and there was no going back. If he had said that, Amber may have decided in that moment to stay with Mustard, instead of leaving with the stallion. But he can't, and he doesn't. So she doesn't, and she can't. Something draws her to go with him. She leaves the hotel ballroom with its gilded walls, chandeliers and patterned carpets, and goes down the hallway and outside. The automobile that waits is modern in looks with curves, black and chrome, and its white wall tires, and it serves a sharp contrast against the antiquarian braided stallion who speaks little, but always with strength and conviction. He looks as young as thirty, but there was never any question that he was much older. He holds the door open for Amber, then takes the drivers seat. As he drives the vehicle away from the covered entrance to the hotel and onto the Baltimare street, Amber begins to realize that she is not in control of where the car is going, or indeed, that she doesn't even know where it is going. The mystery of the whole situation, not knowing who he was, what he wanted, or where he was taking her, was always a part of the excitement. Now, she recognizes the danger, and wonders if she has blundered.
Amber and Mustard wipe down and clean off all of the tables they could be expected to, and are soon both done with their shifts. Mustard looks over to Amber with a charmed smile.

Amber thinks about that dream, about what it means. Mustard really looked hurt in that, which almost made her reconsider, but her logic has been that she can always make it up to him later. The mysterious stallion didn't seem threatening at all, albeit mysterious, and Amber never liked shying away from adventure. Yet there's always an element of danger, and wasn't she warned by High Sewn against going with strange stallions?
She returns his smile and nuzzles him, provided they aren't in view of a lot of customers. However, right now one biological need trumps another. "Want to get a bite to eat?" she asks.

Back in the kitchen is the zebra colt, and a unicorn stallion of an orange-brownish color. There is leftover sautéed onion, and a couple plates that were sent back. Creamy paprika soup, and a bell pepper cut open and stuffed with rice and vegetables.

The unicorn looks back to Amber briefly, and says "those are plates that have been sent back and things that have been leftover. I can't promise they haven't been touched or that they have been cooked correctly, and we would not serve them to customers."
The little black and white striped colt in his white uniform and white hat, however, is happy to approach Amber
"Well sure miss. Take what you want."
He actually brings the plates to Amber. He is definitely younger than her by at least a year.

Amber is quite hungry and has to talk between bites. "I think it was a pleasant day. High Sewn told me about why the price of clothes keeps going up. Sadly, there's not much any of us can do about it."
"But I did make a sale today, all on my own!" she says cheerfully. "Well, I didn't do the measurements or the adjustment, but otherwise it was."
"Please, dip your bread in the soup and enjoy it," she offers.

"Aww, well that's too bad. What did she have to say about it?"
He looks up to her
"Really? That's great! Ever thought of a future in sales?" He smiles
"Now Measurements and adjustments, that's something I would do."
After some hesitance, he rips off some bread, and places it in the soup, and then eats it. Then he does it again.

"A lot of the things ponies want are used up in the war and there's less of it for us. Meanwhile, there are more bits around so it'll take more to buy anything."
"Miss Sewn told me it takes years to get any good at it…"
And so they dine.

Whether something so inelegant as what Amber and Mustard Trim are doing to the food can properly be called "dining" is a bit questionable.
"Yeah, I've noticed things are getting more expensive.."
And in response to "It takes years"
"So do most things that are worthy being good at."
He sneaks in a bite of the pepper

That will do. She whispers, with an awkward grin on her face.

Salt Mixer looks over to De Sew with a gleeful expression. De Sew, by contrast, sighs, and looks slightly defeated. She opens a pouch, pulls out a wad of cash, and extracts from it a 10 bit note, which she hoofs over to Salt Mixer. She cannot make eye contact with Salt Mixer as she does this, but Salt Mixer gladly takes it.
"Less than a week!" Salt Mixer says. "We have to tell Cornpop"
De Sew starts to recover, and looks back to Salt Mixer
"Cornpop said two weeks, right?"
Salt Mixer:
"Yes, but he though it would be Xandoo."
De Sew:
"Xandoo or Mustard, one of the two."
Salt Mixer:
"Well, then I guess you owe him 5 bits. Anyways, this little filly has a question for me, I'll talk to you in a few."
De Sew walks away, and back to the stallion she was talking to, while Salt Mixer turns her attention back to Amber, and leans over the table to be closer to her.
"So, little filly? What hours of the day are you wanting this private time? Because it makes a difference."

"If all you are wanting is a few minutes, I can let you use our back office. There's a couch in there and everything. Locks on the door... But I'm wrapping up business. If you want somewhere you can linger, there's a building two blocks away where one portion was collapsed in during the revolt and it hasn't been rebuilt since. There's no lights, no heating, it's dirty and not necessarily safe at night. Honestly though, you get what you pay for. If you want to spend the night with someone, go to their place, go to your place, or go to a hotel. Get a taxi if transportation is an issue."

Salt Mixer has a huge, almost mischievous smile.
"There's a hall to the left of the bar, on the side opposite from the entrance, where there is a hall that connects to another business in the building, and to the kitchen. The door on your left is the office. It locks from the inside, but I also have a key. Never go there for more than 15 minutes, that is my rule, and do not go there while you are on shift, although maybe if it's the last 30 minutes of a slow shift I can let it slide. You can cry out if a colt or stallion crosses the line, but that is the one and only time I ever want to hear what you are doing back there. Please remember that I actually do have to use that office sometimes, so don't stay there too long, and keep the doors locked during private times as a courtesy so no one walks in. Please, please, please always be discrete. Try not to be seen going in with a stallion at the same time as you, and make sure no one is looking.
Please understand that the owner does not want the office to be used for anything like that. The reason I allow it, is because I do not want intoxicated employees to go home with stallions. I think that if they are told to go to the backroom instead, they will be much less likely to do anything at all, and less likely to do anything they will regret. I am sure you will be much less likely to be forced. I absolutely will not tolerate anything being stolen. Do not get in a physical fight or argument - take that outside. I don't mean to assume what exactly it is you want to do, but do not leave behind love stains or used condoms for the owner or myself to find."

You can cry out if a colt or stallion crosses the line, but that is the one and only time I ever want to hear what you are doing back there. Please remember that I actually do have to use that office sometimes, so don't stay there too long, and keep the doors locked during private times as a courtesy so no one walks in. Please, please, please always be discrete. Try not to be seen going in with a stallion at the same time as you, and make sure no one is looking.
Please understand that the owner does not want the office to be used for anything like that. The reason I allow it, is because I do not want intoxicated employees to go home with stallions. I think that if they are told to go to the backroom instead, they will be much less likely to do anything at all, and less likely to do anything they will regret. I am sure you will be much less likely to be forced. I absolutely will not tolerate anything being stolen. Do not get in a physical fight or argument - take that outside. I don't mean to assume what exactly it is you want to do, but do not leave behind love stains or used condoms for the owner or myself to find."

Amber can feel her knees shake, as her private activities are precisely known to her boss. "I–I understand," she gulps. "It'll be left precisely how we find it."

Poor little filly.
She nods
"Good. I have a thirty five year old shipyard worker who just got divorced, and De Sew has a twenty five year old something or other who's kind of handsome, and both them of them have been complimenting us and tipping us well. They probably hope they are on the short list for the backroom or taking us back home. But no, it's going to be the scrawny, runty high school student who messes up orders, and hasn't paid for anything who gets the privilege. So please, enjoy your time with your coworker. I am locking all doors by 10:15 though, so hurry."

"Oh-okay. Thank you," she says, and doesn't waste any more time heading there with Mustard, leading him by a distance.

Mustard walks behind her, shortly thereafter.
Amber sees that there are three doors, one on the end, one on the left, and one on the right. Naturally she opens the one on the right. Inside, Amber sees that it's actually kind of a small room, with a desk with many papers on it, no windows, a couple book shelves, a grey fabric couch, a chair, two filing cabinets, a yellow light, and a lingering smell of cigarettes. There is certainly plenty of floor for Amber's purposes as well.
Mustard just looks around the room in curiosity, though he does rub his body against her.

It's a tidy little room decidedly not intended for her purpose, so she resolves not to cause any mess. Just like yesterday, the prospect of making love in a private, yet strange and even risky, place is highly titillating.
"H-how do you want to do this?" she asks Mustard, her voice quavering. She is still wearing her wool dress.

Among other things, inside the room is a telephone, a blanket, and a fan.
Mustard Trim moves behind Amber, and lifts up her skirt, exposing her hindquarters. He stares at it, with a proud smile.
"Is this the only time I will get with you until tomorrow?"

She has a nice and shapely plot, her ruddy tail hanging down beneath those firm buttocks. Then she lifts it, and he gets a fine view of the supple skin of her privates. Her labia twitch slightly and he can see something pink and smooth poke out slightly at their bottom.
"You can come back to my apartment with me if you really want after this," she proposes, looking back at him. "You do have things to clean up with, right?"

"If we could get like a rag... I think that so long as it's on the floor and not on the couch, we should be fine."
Mustard Trim jumps up, and places his hindlegs overtop of Amber, standing on her shoulders. He moves his hindquarters closer, and the edge of his penis touches her vulva, then pushes it aside. He is already inside of her, and pushing deeper in.
"Can you keep all or most of it inside of you?"

Hindlegs? That's a difficult but interesting position
"I-I can try," she says, giggling then softly moaning from the contact. He has a hard time pushing in as her vagina is too tight, but then it relaxes to let him in easily.

reee his forelegs
"Okay Amber." If she is tight, this only provokes him to be forceful. He thrusts into her, and starts repeated thrusts, as deep as he can manage at the angle, at a rate that while not "fast" is rapid for a starting pace. His belly makes contact with her rump, tail, and part of her dress.
"When I am done with you here, I would like it if you gave me the chance to make love to you at your apartment."

"Oh, okay. We can–oh!–we can do that."
She wishes she was able to enjoy more cuddling beforehand (beforehoof?), but Mustard is impatient and there's limited time. She moans out an "Oh!" every time he pushes deep inside of her, his member roughly pushing her walls aside. She's not too wet right now, but she enjoys the feeling of Mustard on top of her.

Mustard is separated from Amber by her dress, save for the walls of her vagina, the top of her rump, and the base of her tail. That, and his hind legs occasionally rub against her. He tries to lay on her, but is unable to get a good angle, and stands up. Amber feels the friction certainly, especially the less wet she is. He makes heavier breathing sounds, and moves forward at a determined pace.

Mustard Trim has continued in this state for some time. He's certainly more than halfway there. And then he stops. He just stops. After a few seconds, he pulls himself out of her, and dismounts. He moves around to her side, so that he can make eye contact. He looks sad.
"The truth is that you don't want me to come by your apartment tonight. So I'm not going to make you. I only have a few minutes with you. I only have a single go at you. So let's go to the couch. I want to make it count."

Mint Marine is by the small, ruined pier at the edge of the water, looking into it. He notices Silver, and looks up towards him.

“It’s not my first time to see the bay. But I think it’s the first time I’ve stayed in a house on the bay.” He looks out on the bay
“My aunt’s house was on a river. Well, not on it but pretty neat it. Actually a marshy wetland. I liked that. I would go out every day and spend time on the marsh. I like this too, I think. It’s different. I don’t think I’ll want to spend as much time away from the house here, I hope. It’s new.”

The stallion smiles at the colt.
"I was thinking of getting boat when I get some extra money. Not big or fancy boat, just something to head out onto bay for leisure.
Park it here after we fix up jetty."

“A boat!” He looks up at silver, excited.
“What don’t you have? I mean, that you won’t get soon.”

She coos and moans with each movement. It's not the most intimate placement of him on top of her, but it's still very pleasurable. Initially she is mostly dry and it's almost painful, but either she lubricates herself or she has an emission of precum, or a mix of both, that makes the experience more slick.
She is almost there herself when he pulls out, and she is definitely breathing heavily, even desperately. She nuzzles his shoulder aggressively, play-biting at the skin a couple of times.
"Mustard, whatever you want, I want. Heh…please, come by my apartment. I love you, I want nothing but you." She rubs her bare rump against his.

Mustard looks around the room, and sees, of all things, rags on the shelf. He picks them up and places them carefully on a location on the couch. Then he picks up Amber, and tosses her over on her back on the couch.
>>157093
"You've done a lot since you got here." He says
"More than I would have thought possible."
