Princess Luna stared incredulously at the sleeping drunk for several seconds, before turning to Pale Ale. "I was informed that you can perform magic capable of making ponies sober, amongst other things. I feel it would be for the best if he were sober from now on. I can wake him once you have cast your spell."

Nodding, Pale's horn began to glow, and a similar light appeared around Plumber's head. Fortunately he wasn't too drunk, so after several seconds Pale looked up at the princess. "That ought to do it you majesty. He will probably have a bit of a headache though."

"No matter," said Luna. Her horn lit up briefly, and suddenly Plumber jolted awake.

Waaaghpower

"Mmph," Thunder protested, having a whole bunch of snide comments she wanted to say and a gag still in her mouth to keep her from saying them. She waved at it with her hoof, trying to get the Princess's attention and get the gag removed.
She was interested to see what gear they would get. More interesting, however, was the reward. She wondered if Luna could give her a job referral as well as the money...

Luna eventually noticed Thunder's gesticulations, and after stating that everypony would be civil in her presence, she removed the gags. Grumbling slightly, Thunder asked her questions.

"Aside from provisions and similar nessecities," Luna replied, "you will get any item you need, provided you can give a good explanation as to why you will need it. You may also take weapons and armour, but you will be limited to one weapon or piece of armour each, and it wont be guard issue. We don't wish to tip off the thieves that you are working for us."

Waaaghpower

Thunder realized she would have to save her colorful adjectives describing the others until the princess was gone. Still...
"Princess, if it's all the same to you, could I get a recommendation to the Shadow Bolts after we get this done? You know, as part of my reward or whatever..." she wasn't ever confident enough to actually apply by herself, but thought that with Luna's backing she had to have a chance.

"Unlike the Wonderbolts, the Shadowbolts are more of a military organisation. With a few rare exceptions, only guards are allowed to join. I am aware that your previous applications to the guard were refused on the grounds that you were too 'likely to cause accidental mayhem'. If, over the course of this mission, you can prove this assessment wrong then that will be taken into account in future applications to the guard. That is all I can promise at this time."

with a jolt plumber's crack is awakened and sits bolt upright eying his surroundings. "Princess? oh dear that wasn't a dream was it or am I in more trouble than usual?" rubs his head with a hoof "I must apologize i had a rough day working and I'm afraid your guards must have found me while I was enjoying the night in my own way. ooooh my poor head rubs at his head again Now since I know i was not dreaming I am ready to serve you my lady bows deeply this time not slumping into a slumber Now I must ask does the palace have proper plumbing...

There was a short pause as Luna considered how to respond to this increasingly unusual situation. Eventually she decided to make it somepony elses problem.

"Apology accepted, Mr Crack. Now then, I have pressing matter to attend to elsewhere, so I will leave you in the hands of the guards." She turned to address one of the remaining guards. "Sergeant, escort these ponies to the storerooms. You know your orders." With that, the princess dissolve back into purple smoke and vanished through the cracks in the wall.

After a short detour to a bathroom (where Plumber was delighted to see that the castle did have good plumbing!) the group arrived at the storerooms. Already waiting for them were four sets of saddlebags that had been loaded with food, rope, bandages and various other generically useful equipment.

"Now then," said the sergeant, "there is still room in your bags, so if you want anything else now is the time to say so. As for weapons, the princess said one weapon or piece of armour each, and no guard issue. Once you're done we will show you to your rooms."

"I'll be keeping my mechanism on.  I should be competent on my own after all.  Unfortunately I do not own any armour-but I assume the castle has some materials i could use to make some.  And i'll even please Luna and make it different from yours." Patent said while making a note in his head that he must take a detailed look at any workspace he is assigned and if possible, glean any useful information from it.

Mabbz

The guard gave Patent a surprised look. "If you want to make your own armour, you may. Private Shield here can show you to a workshop and provide you with any materials you need. That said, choosing something we have already might be a better idea, since you are leaving in the morning and should probably get some sleep."

Waaaghpower

Thunder grinned as she looked around at all the stuff in the armory. This was so cool! Of course, most of the armor was far to heavy for her to wear while walking, much less flying, and most of the armor designed for pegasi was guard issue. She did find an older suit made of leather that provided moderate protection to the chest and flanks. It wasn't much, but it was something and it left her mobile.
The real prize was the weapons: A pair of razor sharp blades to be mounted on wings. "Awesome!" She exclaimed upon finding a set that fit her.

"Maybe augmenting some armour to make it more useful would be a better idea" Patent agreed.  He had done full nights of work before, and while most of the time he could cope-he wasn't going to be going travelling the next day.  After walking around the armoury Patent eventually decided on a thin metal body protection piece that would allow it to be malleable and easy to make additions to.  After thinking about appropriate additions, he came to the idea that anything to repel people so he could easily get a shot off would be of benefit.  This led to him planning to put a pattern of protrusions on his armour so that weapons would either get caught within or would be naturally deflected.


[think something like curved things pointing downwards out of the armor, that come out enough so that a sword could get caught in the gap and pulled away from the wielder.]

Walrus Man

Pale Ale struggled to suppress a grimace as he watched the pegasus mare examine her chosen armaments; the razor sharp blades made him more than a little uncomfortable. "I'm afraid I'm not exactly experienced with weapons or combat. You can imagine there's not much call for them living in a tavern."

After retiring to the workshop with the basis of his design and the required materials, Patent set to work.

He did well, and ended up with a piece of armor that would hopefully discourage any from poking him with weapons for fear of them being caught and pulled away.

Having reviewed the map, Patent thought that the most direct route would be best.  It was more dangerous, but he had his bolts, and in the mind of Patent the pegasi seemed sufficiently excited by the reward to get into the thick of fighting before any damage could come to him.

Plumbers crack rumaged around the armor room before coming up with some armor large enough to fit him and buckled it on with a clanking noise. "hmm never worn anything like this before should be intesting"
