The evil council continuation (Possible NSFW)

@boz
Empire sighed and genuinely tried to hold it as long as possible

@14Fan
* Some time passed and they eventually take out Daring Do to tie her on a chair in another room of the cavern. Meanwhile on the henchponies watch over you. *

henchpony: Alright now. You can just go in the back room we dug a hole for that.

@boz
EJ N-no I’m gonna hold it, I can hold it…

@14Fan
henchpony: You were whining for it now you do it. You think we got plumbing in this cavern? This ain’t no underground city.

@boz
EJ: I know I’m not stupid! I’m saving it for someone

@14Fan
henchpony: Huh?

@MarauderPilot
* They eventually finished their game and walk around in the room they pass near a group of gryphon playing cards while waiting. *

Gryphon: Why is there no gryphon deck on that game?

Gryphon2: The fact our country suck most certainly played a role in the decision not to make it a playable faction.

Gryphon: Speaking of that, where’s our contact?

Gryphon2: Quiet, don’t you see there’s a human nearby, she might be here for people like us?

Gryphon * quiet *: Aren’t we ok with the outpost’s forces?

Gryphon * quiet *: Yes, but mainland forces or humans might be aligned with Equestria which isn’t ok with us.

@boz
OOC: So just to be sure, do you have a particular way for this to go in mind?

@MarauderPilot
OOC: Not really, I kind of improvise on this. I just want them to find out there’s gryphons rebels’ presence in there.

@boz
Penny: * The android hums softly to herself as she records the conversation. *

@MarauderPilot
Gryphon: We’ve been told we would be recognize upon taking over the island. Clearly they had intention to make their support official.

Gryphon2: Our contact here need us to win first before he can sell the idea of supporting us officially to the tunnels nation as a whole. Nobody on this planet, or even the space guys * Give a quick look to the humans *, ever supported us changing things in Gryphonia. That can only change once we’re in charge of a place of our own and build a status quo of our own they’ll like enough. We should leave now. It might not be safe anymore to hang around publicly here like we’re tourists. * They get up and leave the building. *

@boz
OOC: Now just to be sure im not about to have a brain fart with my next post, these are rebels against the people working with Robotpony right?

@MarauderPilot
OOC: They are rebels against both gryphons’ royalist faction. Which are Penny’s who used to be officially allied with Robotpony and is called to step down by the entire world now(including Robotpony that she’s now enemy with). And Tim who supported by most Equestrian state who want to preserve stability Equestria, the Donkeys…(Basically every other Equestrian monarchies) and is also surprisingly supported by the NOD and Robotpony too, even if these last two most likely wish to manipulate him into giving Gryphonia into a puppet state for their respective side.

Who will be hold the strings to control Tim is something still fought over in the Daring Do story that happen on the side actually once she’s back into her Gryphonia’s quest.

The Gryphon democratic front for what is worth is mostly unaligned so far. Though they have a deal with some diamond dogs and wish to get recognition from their species as a whole as the conversation that Penny just recorded implied.

Gryphonia’s situation is a mess, so any strategical mistake of alliance you might do here would be understandable, you can post anything even just remotely reasonable without being afraid of doing an mistake RWBY people couldn’t have done themselves IC.

@boz
OOC: Okay, that brings me to my next question, given how they’d be spending their time underground, what do you think the group would have seen about that conflict?

@boz
(Probably should have Robotpony send something down for his support of Tim, as well as get things going on other fronts so people don’t get tied to one area alone.)

@MarauderPilot
OOC: The diamond dogs press would have been terrible on Penny for as long as she was siding with Robotpony, though they might at some point have made fun positively of how she’s now besieging Robotpony’s only territorial possession outside of Crete.

They would only display Tim as a potential restorer of stability and probably good for Gryphonia’s relations with the surface nations, but a continuation of gryponia conservative approach of isolationism toward diamond dogs.

The gryphon rebels would have been painted as people who hate Gryphonia’s ruling system with some valid reasons, but also as people who might potentially be rogues and bring trouble, especially considering they don’t have a unified ideology beside establishing a democracy, so who know what the sub factions that made it would do if the first election they organize don’t turn out to have the results they want.

@Dr_Robotpony
OOC: Hi.

Yeah. I might also send Daring Do that way soon if thing goes well with that area(well as in good rp flow, in universe it’s always going to be a mess).

@boz
(Where is Tim anyways? Last I recall he was talking with RCocoon in Griffonstone.)

@boz
Penny: Hmmm, sounds like they match the descriptionswell enough. * She hums softly to herself as they walk away. *

OOC: Not really sure what else there would be to put in after thinking about all of the complications of them taking action of their own accord rather then being drawn in to it considering the likely officially given reasons for them on the planet and how getting involved with a civil war would probably be beyond the remits.

@Dr_Robotpony
OOC: Still there. It wouldn’t be fair to continue that story without Cere since he know what he want to do with the artifact. That said you could launch the assault on the gryphon capital if you really want to.

@MarauderPilot
OOC: They went to that outpost looking for trouble after all. But don’t worry about that, now that they are here there’s people who will want to drag them into it, with the hope of having them tip the balance in their favors.

Jak: What do you got?

@boz
Penny: Would you prefer to wait for us to be in a more private location, or a file transfer to your scroll so you can listen to it?

@MarauderPilot
Jak: We can walk away.

@boz
EJ: Just don’t bother asking…

@14Fan
Henchpony: You better not try anything on the boss or I’ll toss you whole into that hole.

@boz
EJ: Ugh, fine I’ll do my business in the hole…
