[Anon-Message Board TOPIC: Pink Horse Joshua Abrams]

  001- Alright, what in the name of Arceus is Gabriel?

  002- A horse, anon, a particurly pink one

  003- If I had to guess she's some kind of ghost type pokemon

  004- She can speak tho.

  005- Could be dual-typed psychic?

  006- From the look of it, her body is made out of that gas, look [LINK] her body straight up vanished when the gss on her suit broke, she only came back when the gas was sucked back in (still no clue how that happened lol).

  007- Poison type?

  008- I'm just gd shes okay

  009- Wait why do we think shes a ghost type?

  010- Possessing the suit, ghost types love having an object tied to them, it's not uncommon. Look [LINK] [LINK] [LINK]

  011- She could just be another creature from… wherever Joshua is. Makes more sense than Porse being a talking potentially triple type Pokemon.

  012- Her name is Gabriel.

  013- [Gabriel_smile.png]

  014- [Joshua_tired.png]

  018- Damn he's quick

  019- How's the d doing?

  020- building shit anon

  …

  Joshua is in fact building shit.

  With torches now pced inside the perimeter, with extras pced loosely outside the fenced off area, Joshua has a pn now.

  Turns out that watching Gabriel shrug off a vital wound gave his furnaces enough time to cook up his cobblestone.

  First, a simple square about 10x10 meters (or “blocks”) dug into the ground, with one of the faces bordering the ocean.

  In freedom units it's about 32 feet. Is that too big? Well, it's not like he can't make the house that big, plus he has two people (ponies) living with him.

  The two mares watch as he maps out his idea for the general shape of the base. Gabriel idling with a slight rhythmic bounce as she hums some tune he doesn't recognize, while Jophiel is watching with a bnk look with her horn dimly ignited. What is she doing?

  “Hey, Jophiel, are you okay?”

  She perks up as attention is put on her, she gnces at Joshua for a moment, then at Gabriel. She closes her eyes for a moment in thought before pushing herself up to her hooves.

  Turning to Gabriel, she mutters a single “Pony”, which the hazard horse only responded with a cheery “Okay!”.

  Jophiel starts walking away, looking over her withers at Joshua, signaling to follow.

  Gabriel stays in pce, not perturbed at all as Joshua follows the unicorn a bit further into the base.

  They stop near the shoreline.

  “Okay, what's wrong?”

  “P…Ponyta”

  “It's about Gabriel? What about her?”

  “Pony…”

  [Oh]

  [Oh]

  [Um…]

  [What is she saying?]

  [Uh…]

  [ (*T^T)]

  Joshua blinks in surprise.

  “Really?”

  She just nods.

  Joshua always knew that Jophiel didn't really… like Gabriel all that much. Gabriel seemed to like the unicorn, but the same couldnt be said the other way around.

  She was always tense around Gabriel, in the way that she still considered the mare a potential threat. And he can't really bme her, Gabriel in her eyes is just as freaky and terrifying as the things that wander around at night.

  Joshua ignores the translucent figure he briefly noticed in the treeline.

  But that fear is something Jophiel knows could be simmered, she isn't blind to the idea that Gabriel isn't anything beyond what she presents herself as.

  It's a strangely mature thing to come from a fictional cartoon horse, but… no, this is serious, she's as smart if not smarter than the average human being a psychic type, he shouldn't dismiss this kind of thing.

  That's why she's been… tolerant. Guarded, but not openly hostile like he would expect from the unicorn.

  Joshua has noticed she's been quiet since Gabriel appeared not long ago, and he knew it was out of fear.

  But not the fear she's bringing up now.

  “P-Pony!” She snaps him out of his thoughts.

  “Sorry, I was uh… thinking”

  “Po…”

  She's afraid of being repced.

  She's jealous.

  Jophiel isn't looking him in the eye anymore, snout turned away as her face glows a red hue.

  What does he even say here?

  It feels like it came out of nowhere, has Jophiel always been insecure about this?

  …Wait.

  Maybe he doesn't have to say anything.

  He crouches down.

  “Come here”

  She walks over with hesitant steps and he lifts her up into his arm.

  “You can read my mind, right?”

  She nods.

  “Okay… read it right now. I… don't know what to say, but I know something better. Just… take a look, for real this time”

  She seems hesitant, but with Joshua’s insistence she closes her eyes and her horn ignites, she taps it against his forehead.

  It's a strange feeling, a cool current running through his… brain? He isn't sure, but Jophiel seems to know what shes doing.

  He doesn't know exactly what she saw in there, but whatever she saw made her body rex a bit.

  There's no direct thoughts, just vaguely passing feelings and affirmations, denial to even the idea of repcing the unicorn.

  After a few moments, she stops. Her horn fades and she looks at Joshua.

  “Hopefully you didn't see me piss my pants in 3rd grade” He quips.

  Jophiel chuffs and pushes away his face with a hoof, a smile adorned her snout.

  “Oh so you DID see?”

  “Pony!”

  “You lying little shit, I SEE you ughing”

  “PONY!”

  She pushes him away with both hooves now.

  Now this is the Jophiel he recognizes.

  …

  Okay about the house.

  10x10 meter square thats extened into a rectangle that's long side runs along the shoreline. Then he connects another 10x10 to the right half of that rectangle, making it a sort of a backwards L shape that's long side runs along the ocean. So thats what?... 20 meters by… 80 meters of floor space?

  Sure, fuck it, lets call it 80 meters. Thats a lot of feet, but he wants this base to st so… whatever.

  He digs down three blocks in that floor area, and in each corner he digs five blocks (meters) down further. He then starts pcing the stone.

  Two yers of foundations of the three dug out yers, with the top being wood. Stone is also pced as pilrs in those five block holes to further stabilize the building.

  Should he work on the bunker first?... Yeah, that just seems like a good idea.

  Luckily the “bunker” (more of a basement) is rather easy and only needs to be sturdy as hell.

  Three yers of stone in all directions except up, which is only two yers. Should be enough, he shouldn't jinx that. He does add a hole for air, this time he adds a button to the side of the metal trapdoor in case any angry unicorn wants to break out.

  Bed, chest, crafting table, water pocket. The essentials.

  Jophiel, who's been sitting on his shoulders the whole time, points something out to him.

  “Pony?”

  “I think we have enough materials, why?”

  "Pony” She points a hoof at the ocean.

  “Oh. Ohhhhh, that's fuckin genius, actually”

  She flicks her mane in a ‘I already know’ manner.

  A boat. If the bunker doesn't work they can just use a boat.

  He quickly makes a few and puts them in a chest he pces at the shoreline.

  Bunker is completed, now for the actual house…

  “How about a BIIIIIIIG mansion! That would be so cool!”

  Gabriel chirps beside him.

  “Pony” Jophiel states. Giving a slightly wry gnce at the mare.

  “Ohhhh, yeah! That's also cool!”

  “Pony”

  Not sure what that was about.

  “Maybe not a mansion just yet, let's just start with something easy”

  He does a typical wooden wall setup, with logs on each corner and filling the rest with pnks. Joshua isn't sure how the ck of insution will py out but eh it's fiiiiine.

  He makes a line of logs along the top of the walls and pces pnks to fill in the ceiling, then builds up again and makes a second floor. Why does he need a second floor? He doesn't, it just looks neat.

  Wait no. Fuck.

  He tears down the second floor.

  “Awwww why?”

  “Monsters, Gabriel”

  Having a bunch of rooms with windows, he can only imagine having to scour each room in the dark. God forbid one of the windows break. That sounds like a nightmare and a half.

  One floor now. He uses stairs to make a roof. It was nerveracking being that high up but he managed to do it without shitting his pants.

  Overall, it's pretty basic. He pns on making a farm in the crest of the L shape, maybe decorate it some more? Maybe a pce for his animals? The uh… the livestock, not his ponies.

  He decides to use some of his iron to make an iron door.

  Three of them, apparently, why do they come in threes?

  There really shouldn't be a point where any of them are away from him, but he makes sure to put a lock on the door. Along on with the other two, which are pnted on the back of the house near the shore and another that's going to lead as an entrance to the bunker.

  The three of them stand outside and look at their new house.

  It looks… cozy, with torches pced all around it. A sort of cabin vibe, if that makes sense.

  “How do you two like it?”

  “Pony!”

  “It's amazing!”

  He checks the time.

  12:44PM

  Managed to do all this by noon.

  Yeah. Mission accomplished.
