Sidestory to Fallout Equestria: Commonwealth. A wounded alicorn washes up on the shores of mysterious Fog Harbor, suffering a crisis of faith and implored to 'Be Better'.
(It's working though! He liked that! He feels very proud and happy, keep going!) Vira's green eyes were wide as dinner plates in the porthole as she replied to Kelpie's sour thoughts.
Jar Head's mouth hung open in surprise with a bit of anxiety flowing off him, but Longfellow ignored him entirely. Instead he shoved his way forward, pushing the younger buck aside to answer for him by glaring combatively with Barnacle Bill. "Aye, that's fine then. We'll take the Pearl out tomorrow like I planned an' the young buck'll do the best Jig any o' you ponies have ever seen! Now if we're done, I need a drink ta wash the taste of all these horseapples outta my mouth. Move Bill..."
Oh damn Good luck Jar Head!
"Meh, I owed ya one for yer trick with the glowy shield at my gates. Islanders pay their debts. Plus Chum is a creepy fuck, just along for the ride to be a bully, doesn't give a shit about Levee an' his Goddesses superiority complex." The middle aged pink unicorn huffed, giving a gruff shake of her hoof in introduction while keeping one wary teal eye on the fog. "Name's The Mariner, glad I could help. You've just been makin' friends all over town, ain't ya?"
Really liked this character from the game. Was sad there was no option to help her with her health. Maybe this story will provide one, but it wouldn't be the end of the world if there wasn't. I'd almost think it'd be interesting to see her become an alicorn like Vira. But then again that's probably a bit much.
Before she could however, she felt a strange tingle and a glow from behind softly lit up the fog, getting her and the Mariner to look back just in time to see the tails of her long coat flapping in an unseen wind. Her flank was... glowing!? Vira blinked in stunned silence as the magical sparkle spread and brightened, then faded away again, leaving an image on her forest green fur that hadn't been there before. A cutie mark...
The perk is neat. Almost sounds like a perk card from 76. Please no grief on me for that folks. It can be a fun game. If the bugs get freakin fixed better. Anyway look forward to more of Vira's adventures.
Vira got her cutie mark!! YAY! And yes, Vira. That -is- what Fast meant when he told you to 'do better'. Now just keep it up and you'll be a pony anypony would want to be friends with. Although, helping all these ponies isn't hurting your reputation any either. A Stable problem solved, a dragon freed, a raider's nest cleared, a treasure found, and other things... you're becoming quite the heroine, even if you don't see it that way yet.
Cautiously backing her way out the door as Longfellow finished up with his gruff instruction, Vira sighed wondering how exactly she could though. Fascinating and wonderful as it was, love was very difficult...
Well you could go the forceful route and lock them in a room together
She also took her time since she'd not heard much good about the proprietor of Fog Harbor's weapon shop, a crusty dark red pony named Ailing Levee she peeked at, hanging out over the counter facing the docks like many shops had with a permanent scowl under his curly green beard and tattered knit hat. The fact he was holding court with a gaggle of other rough looking customers, including the very sour faced Barnacle Bill glaring at her, just made waiting less of an issue.
When Rushing Brook called her back, Vira had selected a finely etched, dark 'gulper' leather bandolier to add to her purchase. A gift for Longfellow to replace the ratty strap he wore over his peacoat to hold his lever action rifle. It nearly wiped out her meager supply of caps, but having her own money gave her a sense a pride and being able to spend it on her adopted father made her surprisingly happy, hoping he'd like it.
"You made a fine friend Vira. Er... I just wanted ta say, you know... I'm glad you washed up on my beach an brought all this excitement an' new ponies into my life. Still pretty ticked at you almost gettin' yerself kilt, but that's 'cause I er... I love ya lassie. So don't scare me like that again. And just cause I said it again, don't you go... GAH!" Longfellow muttered sheepishly as Vira's eyes grew wide and shimmered, but was prevented from finishing his warning by the very thing he was afraid of as Vira scooped him up and squealed happily.
New chapter of the fog harbor!! Yaa!
Wow, this sure was a heart-warming chapter

I've seen this thing as a meme so much and it kinda resembles the scene in the story.
I really need to see the movie. So disappointed with myself for not seeing it in theaters.
Oh damn
Good luck Jar Head!
