We're talking a brief break til July · 7:33pm Jun 20th, 2023
As the title says, we're taking a brief break til July. Half a chapter is currently written and there might be an update next week but by early July. Sorry for not updating you guys sooner, work and personal life caught me of guard. The story isn't cancelled and we will retain our two chapters a month 'quota' in July. However, here's a small teaser from the chapter. (Note the following text is completely unedited and subject to change or be removed in the final publishing.) Don't read ahead if you want zero spoilers and please spoil/hide comments.
Glendon rubbed his claws together as he quickly began adorning his body with pistols, daggers, black powder grenades, and filling his knapsack with lead balls before slinging a musket over his back, “Now, let’s party!”
“Is this an interrogation or an execution!?” shouted Jugo giving the griffin an exasperated look.
“It’s a diamond dog problem, remember? We gotta put down some Old Yellers! HAHAH!”
Applejack winced, “That’s dark… look, let’s stay focused, where’s the bar you were at.”
Glendon sighed, “Fine fine, follow meh.”
“Wait just a moment, dears!” Rarity shouted, still very much inside the carriage. She looked simply disgusted and horrified, staring at the fetlock-deep mud covering the entire street. She couldn’t imagine what lied in such filth, or how it gathered so much here in the first place.
“I did not come on this journey to ruin my perfectly washed coat! Applejack darling, did you perhaps pack some… ah, what did you call them? ‘Galoshes’? Or perhaps even rain boots?” It looked as if the thought of getting mud on her sent chills down her spine. “Oh dear, I simply should have seen this coming, perhaps I could have asked Ms. Meadows if she had any I could borrow…”
“Oh come on Rarity, we have Glendon threatening to get gun-ho on everypony and you’re over here complaining about a little mud!?” snapped Applejack.
“Oy! Politely, piss off! A lady needs her boots!” Glendon attested showing a strange gentlemarely streak, “Worry not my lady, I packed boots for you and your friend in the back.”
Glendon quickly rummaged through the back of the wagon, rocking it gently before plotting over to Rarity, presenting the mare with a fresh pair of yellow rain boots, “I’m afraid it’s not the most stylish thing darling, but it’ll keep your hooves clean.” winked Glendon, giving the mare his best smile.
Jugo rolled his eyes at the display, walking over before smacking the back of his head, “Focus fool.”
Glendon quickly snapped back, “You idiot, can’t you see I’m trying to be classy!” groaned the griffin.
Rarity giggled with delight, gratefully sliding the rain boots on to all four hooves. “Why thank you my dear Glendon, at least someone was thinking of their guests!” She gave Jugo a playful grin, “Just one moment, I need to make sure nothing gets in my tail either. Thankfully I remember to pack plenty of bobby pins and hair ties!”
Thanks for the update!
