Which raises the question of why I'm dreaming about Somber at all. I've essentially worked out that the less sleep I get, the more dreams I have that are memorable.swicked wrote:

Stress and sleep deprivation tend to make for more charged dreams, possibly as a mechanism to deal with mental garbage and a means to sort out concerns. Increased significance can lead to increased memorability.

- Oh Lillith's egg references and all that... Evangelion Inspired, Adam and Lillith meet and wham! Third Impact!
Somber this is fun, still reading"l is simple: unlimited electricity for the entire world.”
“An end to all wars,” Amadi said with a nod. “With this device, the resource struggle will end, and both pony and zebrakind will have peace. All people will. Stars willing, of course.” Maybe it was just me, but there was something about the way he said that which made me wish my spine could crawl.
hahahha stars willing, oh the Irony...

Brief collection of thoughts.
- Spoiler:
- Glory certainly reminded me of what happened last chapter pretty quickly. What with the tank peeling and Dawn and such.
Cauterize starts soon, they must be in a hurry, using wireless means to transmit information about something that was supposed to be 'secret'.
Or it has already begun...
Dealer confirmed for linkage to PipBuck.
Echo=Dealer. Neat.
I don't remember Grimhorn.
Roseluck was related to the 'pest-control' rings, IIRC. No wonder the area is thoroughly enervated.
I was wondering if the Crystal Empire would be put into PH. That shield seems pretty interesting, it must capture energy from incoming fire, kinetic or magical. A megaspell blast would provide a lot of charge if that is how they work.
Ironic that a place of secrecy brings out the honesty of a most shadowed pony.
Makes me wonder what the real importance of this pony is, being shown all these secrets.
Unlimited power coming from a trapped, evil star-monster-thing?
Sounds safe.
I was wondering if the shields had something to do with it.
I see that this is probably what Blackjack's final form is. My first guess is that the thing can fly.
With the Enclave being contacted now, right before or during Cauterize, that might be a bad idea.
Of course, they don't know that.
I wondered, as I do frequently about things, if any more Stables would be explored.
It seems like it's used as a vault. Heheh.
Gotta love Stable 29. But it looks like 94's experiment was to be an empty room.
Getting 10 thousand tonnes of moon rock wouldn't be easy.
Unless you smash the moon into the planet... maybe that is what Horizons does. All the energy.
Doof and Twist are back. This will definitely be interesting.
Boo is now definitely a dog.
The encounter with Doof made me happy on a few levels.
And woo, another dream from the mass-murderer.
Garnet gave the orders. Hrrm.
So now it's all zebra curses. Interesting.
'She' is Littlepip, the Lightbringer.
Whatever the goal of the alliance between the Enclave and The Goddess was, it would never come to fruition.

Pretty good. Nice use of perspective at the end to fill her in on what's going on. So many things have been confirmed that it feels like we're heading into the final stretch now.

- Chapter 53 First Impressions:
Assuming direct control.“I am assuming control of these medical facilities!”
Yeah mess with her and you're doomed.“Now wait a minute,” a brown earth pony began to say as he looked at his own balking security and the two beam turrets flanking his half-dozen ponies. “We’re in charge he-“
I don't know why this is so funny to me. Could be lack of sleep, or maybe the language she puts it in.“I will, even if I must imbibe the wastewater in the little filly’s room,” Lacunae promised solemnly, setting me on a bench where I had a clear view of the ER.
Way to go, Glory. Being the boss and stepping up.“Then move!” Glory bellowed.
Yeah, you can't be doing much with only one intact limb, 'cept wiggle a bit.“I’ll just wait over here… and… um… watch…” I muttered from my seat.
*insert Trauma Center music*Then she started to work.
Sometimes you have to let others shine and handle it on their own. You can't be the hero of every story.It’s not always about me, though…
Huh, here lies our fan theories, and a similar speech she made to P-21.“I don’t know,” I said in a low, gentle voice. “Maybe Cognitum took her over and attacked him before she changed her mind. Or maybe… maybe she had to do something so she couldn’t return to her old life. One that she wanted but that wouldn’t save the Wasteland. I don’t know. What I do know is your dad is up there. If he’s alive, you’re going to need to talk to him. And if he’s not…” I closed my eyes, remembering the head and the stake. “If not… you need to say goodbye.” I finished in a near whisper.
Wait, what? Did we miss the Maripony explosion? Nah, probably their backup plan being made.“Lots. There’s a bunch of chatter about one group withdrawing to some place called the Cathedral, another talking about ‘Operation Cauterize’ and something involving Canterlot, and a bunch of jabber that I think is zebra. But I didn’t pick up anything from the Harbingers. If they’re communicating, they must be using landlines rather than transmitting.
Swicked, please make some conversation with Scotch and Dealer?“Blackjack… there’s this really freaky pony watching me right now.”
O.o“Blackjack… I’ve seen him before,” she whispered.
What?
Oh, the RPG memory. He's Echo, bits all in for him, final answer.“Character Sheet”
Ha! We knew it!Name: Smiling Jack. Race: Earth Pony. Profession: Occult Gambler. Hometown: Gallows Hill.
Player: Echo.
Wasn't that the name of the merchant and shotgun in FO:3?
Also, reminds me of Twisted Fate in League of Legends.
Now if only we knew exactly what happened to Jetstream. Most likely dead, but still. Possibly another fic can pick it up?The team was complete now.
Here comes the teasing. *grabs popcorn*“Dog think Pony has problem,” Rover said calmly as the old canine cupped his chin and narrowed his filmy eye. “Now what could it be… hmmm…” He sat on a large wooden crate he’d hauled in while Triage readied her surgical equipment.
Pft. *laughs*“No! I’ll never get laid again!”
Makes sense, but still, with Dawn and all fresh in her mind, might not be the best thing.Your cyber parts are designed for recon and being all sneaky. Face it. You need a combat model that can take the abuse you’re throwing at it.”
We can rebuild her!We’ll use the remains of Sky Striker’s power armor, the Shadowbolt repair drivers, and your basic legs to make new ones.
Huh, does that mean she will be able to interact with cloud constructs then? Also, give her wings!
Required Secondary Powers. Hooray.We’ll have to fortify your joints and spine, though.
Oh yeah, flying makes her airsick. But if she nails teleport, I can imagine an epic fight where she's flashing everywhere with a shotgun in tow.Not too bad for me. Anything that got me more than twenty feet off the ground was something I didn’t want. Once I worked out teleportation…
I wonder if she'll be able to bluff her way through Paradise like Redeye the alicorn blob suggested. Been reading through the tumblr...I sighed, knowing there had to be one. “I’ll go to Grimhorn.” I really wanted to chase down Steel Rain and Dawn, but…
You should know, the rings-. Oh yeah, blanket on your brain.Roseluck Agrifarms. I’d heard that name before.
Gestalt and Mosaic. Ooh how I love continuity.Two green unicorn mares fussed around with the displays, even with others looking on, clearly trying to execute the purple mare’s exacting directions.
Does she know she's a bot? If not, don't tell her.“Sweetie Bot, 2.0,”
Neither to I. Now what did Horse turn to? Wait... Random thought: is SweetieBot v2.0 Cogitum?“Such irony…” Was he talking about himself or Goldenblood... ugh... either way, I didn’t like it!
Oh dear.“And what… what’s that screaming?”
International team, go!“You’re from Neighpon?” Diamond Flash asked in shock.
“Indeed,” she said with a smile, then gestured to the other ponies. “This is Bastille, from Fancee.” A stern-looking gray earth pony mare nodded once from her terminal. “Trotski from Staliongrad.” A blue stallion with an impressive, brushy beard trotted up and kissed her hoof. “Halah from Saddle Arabia,” she said as she gestured to a large, yet surprisingly delicate… pony? “Harmonia from Crystal Empire,” she indicated a white mare who was… sparkling? Okay. Shiny ponies was where I drew the line!
But that couldn’t prepare me for the last member of the research team. “And this is Amadi,” Toko said as she pointed to the final member, a large and shrouded form.
When indicated, he stepped forward and pulled back his hood, uncovering his long striped mane and lined features. He wasn’t just striped, however. His face was covered with intricate tattoos that seemed to emphasize his stripes. Strange glyphs were tattooed upon his hide in sweeping, elaborate tribal marks. His yellow eyes focused upon Diamond, and he gave a small smile, as if finding amusement in something.
“A zebra? What… how…” She swallowed, her mouth working silently a moment. “I thought zebras had been… ah…”
I pity them, and hope that they expired quickly away from the grasp of EoS, for they know not what they're dealing with.Diamond Flash looked from one to the next, and then her eyes returned to Horse. Then she smiled. “I’ll get started tonight.”
Oh no, someone else in the wasteland with Blackjack's stomach. That makes... four? No wait, Precious and Spike haven't tried any of this yet.He picked one up and sniffed it, then took a bite. His eye popped wide as he chewed, then slowly swallowed. “Is full of gems!” He gobbled up the rest before I could blink.
Please someone with more artistic talent than me draw this?Okay. It wasn’t… as bad as I’d expected. I looked like I’d put on half a suit of Enclave power armor and had neglected to put on the rest. Aside from my legs, there was a large shield-shaped piece of metal across my chest that connected to my shoulders. An articulated ridge of black metal followed my spine down to my tail. My sides were still bare; on one hoof, a tactical vulnerability, and on the other a wonderful reminder that I was at least partially flesh and blood. The ridge narrowed when it got to my mane and became two thinner strips, with my mane in the middle, running to just behind my ears.
All I needed to hear. <3 Somber.“Stable,”
Yay for more sleep.* * *
Now you are just tempting it. Except maybe to protect the town next time?“You’d think a tank would be easier to find,” Charity muttered. “Still, I’ll be glad if it never shows up again.”
*nods in agreement*Charity stopped at the door and looked back at me. “Given how your life goes, Blackjack, it’ll probably be three tanks. Flying ones.”
O.o“Come on down to the Stable.”
Chapel is sitting over a STABLE!?! Well, let's see what experiment was this, and what happened to the inhabitants.
Da hay was the CMC thinking for this one?The entire stable was just this one, singular room.
S -> Scootaloo>S, we’ve run interference with Image and Morale again. Please try to be a little more circumspect, if you can. The story is that the “material” for Stable 24 is for a satirical, ironic, postmodern performance piece. P&P are keeping PP occupied with infiltrators in Manehattan; hopefully, she won’t get a twitchy tail on you again. Give my love to AB. -E.
>P.S. Try and remember identification protocols, S. It’s that whole plausible deniability thing that keeps PP off our butts. Thanks.
P&P -> Pumkin and Pound
PP -> Pinkie Pie
AB -> Apple Bloom
E -> ???
*flat stare*‘Fun with Codewords’
GB -> Goldenblood>GB, what the hay is going on there? I agreed to let your office scrap one stable. One. Now you’re taking materials from other projects. AB might not have a clue about how to read a spreadsheet, but I had to talk her out of doing a hooves-on inspection of 90. Our deal was you cover our flank, I look the other way from time to time. If you start snagging entire stables, though, ponies are going to notice. -S.
Now what's he doing with a stable's worth in resources? The Redoubt?
L -> Luna>S, I don’t know precisely what you’re doing with your stables, and frankly, I don’t care. L was not keen on allowing Stables in the first place, as they suggest Equestria will lose the war. I do know that if what you’re doing became public knowledge, Stable-Tec would be finished. I also know that no corporation in Equestria has the resources that Stable-Tec does. Nepotism can be quite useful. What are two or three stables lost when you get to keep the rest? Be practical. -GB.
H -> Horse>AB, hey Bloom. I was digging through some of the MWT’s Stable-Tec files and lookie what I found. Mind transfer to a computer? Sexy, Bloom. Really sexy. You’ve been holding out. I saw what you have cooking at 29, 33, and 94. Hope you don’t mind if I snag the designs, ROFL. This has got some real possibilities if we can reverse it. Play around a bit. -H.
>P.S. You should check out my Sweetie Bot.
SB -> Sweetie>P.S. SB hopes you get tetanus.botBelle
Trottenheimer is such a good friend to him, or at least that's how I feel about him.“Oh, so tomorrow, then? Given how you look…” There was a pause where I could only imagine a glower, then Trottenheimer suggested, “Maybe you should stop working with that starmetal. We still don’t know if it has toxic side effects or not. It definitely has some bad vibes coming of it.” When Trottenhimer said that, Goldenblood gave a wrenching laugh. “Are you sure you’re okay?” Trottenheimer asked again, sounding even more concerned.
Pretty much confirms it. He's gonna shoot the core at the moon, or vice versa. -Three days remain.-Goldenblood didn’t answer for a moment, then he said in a hiss, “I meant ten thousand tonnes of moonstone. At optimal ratio.”
Well, that's one way to deal with this.“Fine. Just be quick about it. And I want it back after we deal with that tank. I am not turning into Jetstream!”
Your heritage is showing.The glowing cloud emerged from Rampage’s forehead like a little radiant stormcloud. I lifted a blank memory orb with my magic and touched the cloud to it. With a small flash, the nimbus disappeared into the orb.
I'm betting on the tank being friendly, um, not hostile?I stared at her and then glanced at the orb. “Okay. After the tank, then.”
Oh can I get in on the betting? Wait, I'm bad at gambling. I'll just sit this one out. Still pretty funny though. Glory is in on it. I'm sure.Oh, that’s nothing. You should see the betting pool for how long it’s going to take for you to ruin your shiny black legs. I think half the ponies you know are in on it,” Rampage said. “I gave you sixteen hours…”
Wait a moment, too busy laughing on the floor. Blackjack is emmiting some sort of crazy brain waves.She laughed so hard she was crying. “Oh! Oh! It’s just too much!” She wiped her eyes with a hoof as she looked up at the tank. “Is it that you suddenly don’t have a clue what to do with your life and the only thing you can think of is to follow Blackjack in the hope that she’ll help you make some sense of the incredibly fucked up circumstances you now find yourself in?”
Still laughing.“Because that’s what you do when you’ve been beaten by Blackjack, duh!” Rampage said as she sat up. “If she doesn’t kill you then she makes you re-examine your entire life and you follow her along until you find something that makes sense! And because it’s a whole lot easier than trying to kill you a second time. I mean, look at the list. You’ve got me. Sanguine at the end there. Psychoshy. Now Deus. I bet Gorgon would have, too, if it weren’t for that whole rock crushing to pulp thing.”
The blue bomber is now the bar for normalcy. How absurd. *resumes laughing*“Blackjack, have you looked around lately? What’s sane?” Rampage asked as she stopped laughing, smiling up at me. “I’m an immortal amalgamation of souls. You’re a cyberpony. Deus is a tank! One of your best friends is an alicorn and your lover looks like Rainbow Dash. The only friend you have even close to anything approaching normal is P-21.”
Making up for lack of screentime by being awesome.The hatch on the turret opened, and P-21 started climbing up. Rampage stepped next to me and murmured in amazement, “When the hell did his testicles drop?”
No, I believe he just wants to make the apology he's been trying to give so many years ago. *feels*Deus was interested in Rampage?
Ok then, dream time. Now what will we see of Psalm.Maybe just a short nap…
Huh, the gem-ponies didn't make it into Redoubt? And who is in Redoubt? The other in the three-way battle for control back in Discord's Prison?Another one of my old bosses, Onyx. “Good. Good.” Garnet tossed the revolver on the bed, blood smearing the mouthgrip. “Damn Redoubt is sealed. Can you fucking believe it? Somepony got here before us… all of us… and locked it up tight!”
Question quickly answered, wow. So Horse is in Redoubt, probably the other in the three-way.I ignored her request. “Where is the Director?” I asked slowly. Keep calm, just like when shooting. I had to stay calm and centered. I had to…
“Who the fuck do you think is in there?”
Now coming close to the end of Psalm's story. All we have to do is find out how she fell into IMP.Garnet hobbled to the entrance after me. “No. Come back here! Kill me, you cunt! You whore! Murderer! We killed everypony! Kill me!” She screamed after me. I never looked back as I heard her bloody choking sob, “Please… kill me too…”
Picture imminentWith a blanket of mares... maybe the dreams would be better...
Yeah boy! *grabs some more popcorn*Echo...” I murmured, and his lips curled into a sour sort of smile.
Sounds like the Zebra was trying to make another group of Element-BearersThe greatest heroes in the whole war, so long as we were true to each other. So long as we never... ever... broke fellowship with each other.
0.0This... this horrible, black book.
Why!?!
Yay connecting with your ghostly friend. (And one of my favorite characters to boot)Instead, I did the next best thing. “So... tell me more about the adventures of Smiling Jack.” A small smile curled in the corner of his mouth.
Now screw around with her while Littlepip (specifically Xenith) is setting up us the bomb.Could the Goddess control my body while I was in there? Was it even possible?
Get her out of there! *tries to calm down*And trapped within was a very familiar purple mare’s head.
Methinks Calamity would make another good companion for Blackjack.Then I spotted Calamity! There was no missing that hat.
Do as the Doctor, and get out of there.The old mare’s head seemed so terribly tired and sad as she looked on. Yet even as I looked, the corner of her mouth turned in the saddest smile. Then she mouthed a word within that diaphanous balloon. ‘Run.’
Fuuuuuuuuuu-... Memory blanket ahoy!She pulled me towards her gargantuan maw, filled with countless babbling pony heads and an infinite number of teeth...
Dangit Somber, stop blaming yourself, just relax and take care of yourself. It was a great chapter.I really want to apologize for the lateness of this chapter
I think this is the earliest I've made one of these. And yeah, this chapter does answer more questions than it raises. Really good chapter in terms of content, continuity, and care.

Pretty sure that Grimhorn is the visiting Hellhound.
I believe in her! She will be princess alicorn!
@ARoundCorner
Welcome aboard the Blackjack Express. Keep your arms and legs inside the ride at all times. Please plan your breakdown so it doesn't correlate with any of ours. Have a nice day.

It's annoying to check the forums as O.Hinds updates only to have to hold back due to RL concerns.
What I liked
Glory breech and clear that hospital waiting room! (I love dynamic entries)
The interplay between Triage and Rover was fun to read, but not as much as Blackjack's plaintive whine about not getting laid again.
Oh Deus, you've fallen for her charms too now that she's killed you. You sly dog you
What I noticed
Blackjack envies booze soaked medical tools
Horse is.... honest.... way to honest to be blunt.
Lets back up this crazy train Mr Zebra and stop at Sanity Junction because it's clear your trying to board the express train to Crazytown.
Either we got our first look at the Eater of Souls who from the description is not an outer space Demon but in fact just Lavos.... wait Lavos? fuuuuuuuuuu
Pony tails are surprisingly flexible, almost prehensile if Glory can grab Blackjack's collar with hers.

It is indeed Doctor Trottenheimer, it is indeed, rocks fall everyone dies.Trottenheimer was silent for a moment and then said in a voice of resignation, “Well, it’s one way to end a war.”
“Because that’s what you do when you’ve been beaten by Blackjack, duh!” Rampage said as she sat up. “If she doesn’t kill you then she makes you re-examine your entire life and you follow her along until you find something that makes sense! And because it’s a whole lot easier than trying to kill you a second time. I mean, look at the list. You’ve got me. Sanguine at the end there. Psychoshy. Now Deus. I bet Gorgon would have, too, if it weren’t for that whole rock crushing to pulp thing.”

Okay lets re-read this, Okay Ashtar spaces aliens... shurrak I don't recognize but not worrying so far and the third is.... Dagon....DAGON?Amadi bowed his head. “Ashtar. Shurrak. Dagon. Spare us your wrath and grant the daring a fraction of your power.”

- Spoiler:
- The entire sequence with the goddess. I don't think it adds anything to the story of the Goddess to contact the Enclave rather than it being the other way around. Further it contracts FOE canon pretty explicitly because the Enclave arrived at the same time as Little pip offering alliance.
