Excuse

lil warning on this dialogue, guys, has some sexual undertones~~~~Night had come, and Chakra Blossom was out hunting. Thus far he'd been rather disappointed with the slim pickings at this particular bar. The place was nearly empty, save for a few sluggish, pathetic drunks haunting the corners. None of them looked like they could offer Chakra some much as a coherent sentence, let alone decent company or (what he really wanted) free drinks.But then the faded front door creaked open, and a new patron entered. With pricked ears and keen eyes, Chakra watched the newcomer sit down at the dingy bar counter.A bat pony soldier was an unusual sight, and the gears began to turn in Chakra's head. This newcomer was attractive, yes, but not amazingly so. The soldier was smaller than acceptable, too rough around the edges, and older than Chakra's standard choices in partners. Chakra frowned, but the growl of his empty stomach compelled him to talk to the stranger. Besides, he reasoned...it'd be much easier to flirt his way to fun and free food if he himself was the prettier one. Hehe could grace this chewed up little bat with his presence.So Chakra approached. He boldly sat down next to the soldier and offered up his best lazy smile, brushing his mane from his face. "Hey there." Chakra purred, leaning close, "Looking for a little company, soldier?"The bat pony didn't so much as glance at him. "No thanks."Chakra's jaw worked for a moment, baffled. He'd been rejected before, sure, but never outrightNot by anypony. He feltHaughtily, he lifted his head, now determined to charm this stupid little one-eyed bat, so that he could have the pleasure of revenge-rejecting HIM. Not only would he win over the soldier's heart, he'd delightfully stomp it toNow, how to proceed..."Aww, what a shame, baby." Chakra mock pouted. "I just thought you looked a little, is all. I sensed your gloomy aura the second you stumbled in.""Aura, huh?""Yes. I can feel the negativity radiating from your cosmic core. You're in dire need for someone to, ah, relieve all those tensions and bring you true inner peace. Why don't we discuss it over drinks? My name's Chakra, by the way, and that's what I do-aura therapy and spiritual healing." Again, he offered his very best, most charming smile.The soldier chuckled warmly. "My, my, Mister Chakra. I amat the size of that crock of crap you're selling me."Chakra blinked. No one had ever seen through his hippie talk so quickly before, not even Rosemary. This pony was a smart little bastard....but damn it, Chakra had histo avenge."Aura...ahem, I'm afraid aura isn't a joke, friend. My connection to the cosmic flow of the universe's energies gives me unworldly sight beyond sight-""Oooh, I have sight beyond sight, too, pal." The bat soldier sniggered. "Even with just my one eye...I can spot aa mile away."At the insult, Chakra's calm, hippie facade shattered.At least I'm not some...some one-eyed little batwith bad hair." He scowled. "I hope being a smart ass serves you good among Luna's finest, cyclops."The soldier laughed at that, out loud. "Oh, it does, it does. I'm a first lieutenant. Maybecould learn a thing or two fromHe finally turned to face Chakra, and the pegasus froze at the sight of a single, luminous, predatory eye, and a flash of sharp fangs."...You know, Iyou, Mister Chakra." The soldier gave a lazy smirk, and Chakra, despite himself, felt his face flush hot. "Tell you what. I'll buy you a drink...if you let me teach you a lesson in discipline."Chakra wasn't used to not being in control, and he grasped for the right words. "What...what kind of lesson?""A private one. All I'd like to do is teach you yourThe bat pony inspected the green pegasus now, like a hungry griffin might eye a mouse, and his voice was a low rumble when he spoke.You look like you'll be a quick learner, Chakra."Completely involuntarily, all of the feathering lining Chakra's throat and shoulders fluffed up at once, and his face flushed deep crimson. The soldier snorted a laugh at the sight, and Chakra scowled, attempting to discreetly smooth his feathers."You thought you were some big bad predator, but aww, justat you. You're just a scared little fluffyThe soldier cooed, teasing a hoof against Chakra's chest fluff. "I wonder if you'll squeak like one..."Chakra growled, fluffing up further. "Just s-shut up and get me my drink.""Oh, so you're accepting my lesson?""Iscared of your discipline lesson." Chakra snorted, giving a challenging glare. "We'll see who teachesasshole.""Oh yes, we certainly will. My name is Nocturnus, by the way. You'll remember it." Nocturnus gave Chakra one last amused look, before turning to face the bar counter. "Bartender? A drink for my friend, please..."~~~Chakra Blossom encounters Nocturnus, and the nice, unassuming bat pony islike Chakra anticipated. Predator finally becomes prey, it seems helped me brainstorm the dialogue for this one. Chakra has met his match in bat daddyNocturnus the bat pony royal guard first appeared here:and here:This is occurring some time after Nocturnus' first scene, his daughter is well and healthy again. He just got off his shift for a quick visit to the bar, and met someone very interesting...edit: upped the contrast/now with dialogue
