"Yup, that's the plan." There was more to the plan, but that was the short and skinny of it that was vital to them. The rest of the plan she wouldn't need their help with. There was a little complication between healthful hoarding and greed growth hoarding, but she had that planned out. Celestia was a possibility, but Lovecraft was already nervous about the idea of talking to the alicorn. There was no way she was going to request that she break one of Equestria's own laws of magic. It was life manipulation magic, she'd arranged her plans in the Badlands to avoid breaking the law here.

Nevermind it was the very core of her plain, and why she'd be so easy to revert back to normal. It was one of Celestia's own laws.

This would work. She was too nervous to tell them that she was the draconic creature that would be undergoing greedgrowth. As a far off thing they couldn't control even if they did detain her, it was okay to them. But if they knew it was her who was to do it? Well that would put the reigns of control under their hooves.

And she would spend Invasion day locked in a cell. No. Probably not, considering her knowledge base. But still. She'd rather not get mixed up in getting mixed up in her plans. "What? You mean me? talking to Celestia? To her face? Like this?" She waved to herself with her tail. Bloody nose and a sopping wet tail. She was a mess. Celestia. Oh by the heavens. Celestia?

"We're not foals, M'am." Steel, though still not looking all that terribly well, managed to joke before turning serious. "We'll get you some medical attention; because, not to be rude or anything, you look like you could use some. However, after that, we are going to take you to see the princess."

His stomach lurched and his head swam as he stood back up, reminding him that he could probably do with a bit of medical attention himself; or at very least a good rest to recover from all the magic he'd been exposed to this day. But there was a time for that; now that the kirin was willing to work with them (or not opposed to it at the very least) things needed to be done.

"Just follow us miss..." He blinked, then somewhat sheepishly asked. "Er, um; could I have your name?"

The Princess. She was going to meet Princess Celestia. Lovecraft had seen Takh in how she reacted to her dragon children. Spying on her had been one of her favorite pastimes when she lived in the Badlands. Tahk had been kind, trusting, and wise. A two face, for the kirin had known even a peep to show herself would've ended in her quick and abrupt slaughter. The Dragon Queen ought to give Pyralis more credit than she did. By Lovecraft's standards they were exactly alike. She was afraid to find Celestia to be the same kind, kind to her pony subjects, but ready to trample a first generation kirin like her. They had no deity to watch over and protect them like the dragons, pure blooded kirins, or ponies. They were the limbo, and no matter where their predecessors went, they would be looked down upon.

What would Celestia be like? "Glamour Lovecraft." The kirin introduced herself. "And you're Steel, correct?" She hadn't heard his full name, so assumed that was it. She eased herself up, bringing herself up to her full height. Being a first generation kirin as she was her size was subpar, but it did put her taller than most mares, and her tail swung behind her, a length that could easily wrap around herself like a feline napping.

Lovecraft had been pushing through the pain like a sled team in a blizzard. There were more important things than her pain. She swished her tail to gesture herself. "This looks worse than it is. All I need is to clean myself up." As she said this the gesture splashed a bit of blood that had accumulated upon her tail onto her face, bellying her words. Some cosmic being was laughing at her right now, she knew it.

A bath wouldn't do much for her migraine, but even if the light was burning her eyes and mind, she'd push through it. Equestria was at stake. The needs of many outweighed the needs of the one. All she had to do was look presentable, nothing else mattered.

"Steel Wing, Miss Lovecraft; and as much as I would like to take your word for it, I'd rather not take any chances with your health. As I said earlier, I swore an oath to protect all who lived in Equestria to the full extend of my ability. You've already said you live here; so that includes you as well." What he left out was that he could do with a trip to the infirmary himself with the amount of magic he'd been exposed to.

Sometimes he wondered if there was such a thing as an allergy to magic; and he also wondered if he possessed such a thing if there was. However, there was a time and a place for such musing. Right now, he had a potentially sick kirin that needed to be looked after; he could wait until 'Glamour Lovecraft' was taken care of to deal with his own gripes.

With a practiced easy, his quiver was swung up onto his back once more; the same with his bow a second later. "Please; I told you I wanted to help you, and I don't lie. More to the point, if you do have something wrong with you, then you won't be able to complete that quest of yours; so it does seem like it's in your best interests to get some medical aid."

I gave a short sigh of relief as I buckled Blaze back onto my belt, glad to feel it's comfortable weight again. A moment later and we were trying to convince the kirin that she needed medical attention, and I figured that it would be best for her to hear what needed to be said before she was surrounded by a muddle of doctors.

"Okay, miss Lovecraft, before we get too far into this, I need to point out that you're in rather a lot of trouble, and not just the whole trespassing thing. You're intending to actively instigate greed growth on a dragon, which falls in direct violation to one of the laws of magic. Now, there are some pretty spectacular extenuating circumstances, but before we go any further I need to point out that if you do this you're going to be working directly under the crown. That means you take orders like a guard, and if we pull the plug on the idea you have to stop. That's not likely, but you have to know that it could happen if things go south. Got it?"

"I'm just working under the dragon, I don't even have the power to stop it." Lovecraft lied smoothly, rubbing her temple to try and mellow down her migraine. She had thought right to conceal the fact that she was the one to actually go into greed growth. As an inevitable thing that they couldn't stop if they wanted to it was an easier pill to swallow than to know that the very kirin, the mastermind of the whole scheme, was doing her plan here and now.

"Thank you Steel, though as a first gen kirin its almost part of the job to have something wrong with me." She laughed at her own joke. She personally found it funny. They were stronger for their weaknesses, just like the blind. Blind ponies were amongst the strongest and most interesting she had ever known. He was quite nice, but while he didn't lie, Lovecraft couldn't tell the complete and honest to Celestia truth. Forget Morpho's nightmares, the real nightmare would be if they actually thought of something that would actually imprison her during invasion day.

"Miss Lovecraft, you maintained a multi-layered and highly complex illusion for a very long time. You stretched said illusion to cover an entire hallway of Canterlot Palace. You infiltrated the castle in broad daylight and completely undetected. You've concocted a plan so insane that, to be blunt, it has to work. You've been going about getting everything you need without the guard cottoning on until now.

"Anypony who claims there's anything 'wrong' with you is grossly misinformed about you." That might have been a bit much; but Steel Wing really and truly hated to see good ponies feeling down about themselves. The fact that Glamour Lovecraft wasn't a pony did not exclude her from this in his mind.

I trotted alongside the two, trying to piece things together. One, Lovecraft was working for a dragon. Two, that dragon needed to achieve greed growth to be a threat. Three, there weren't many dragons nearby, and even fewer that would want to risk something like this to help Equestria. All in all, she was working for a young, loyal dragon, one who didn't mind contracting a citizen to do something illegal, and had nothing to lose in the event that it all went downhill.

"So, Lovecraft, this dragon you're working for. Describe them for me."

Oh snap. Naw, not in that manner. She just happened to know a dragon that lived in Equestria that would fit the equation. After all, a full grown massive one wouldn't fit in the equation. They wouldn't need greed growth. Nonetheless… "I don't sell out my friends." Lovecraft said to Blackflame. She had been thinking about telling Blackflame the description and name of the dragon, but if they actually found him that would be sour apples for him. And that just wasn't fair to put him through that, even if they were friends.

"And it's not my plan at all, its the dragon's." To be truthful, it was the dragon blood inside her that had come up with the idea. When Morpho had dared them to use the wealth that she gave them to further her defeat… That was what had given her the idea in the first place. Draconic wraith and goading, like dangling a tempting piece of meat in front of her nose that had just mind bucked her. "And please Steel, it's no big deal. Even for everything else I know my genes aren't the best out there. It's not something wrong- it's just the way it is. That's not to say I'm not all the stronger for it."

All the "weak" people were stronger for it. She padded by his side towards the infirmary.

On some level, he knew that she wasn't being down on herself; he was aware that there was a lot of genetic issues with Kirins like her, as many used it as an excuse for the fact that they committed crimes. However, he didn't buy into those claims any more than he was buying into hers right now.

"The concept of 'best genes' is as outdated and pathetic as every Ivory, Harvest Lord and Cloud-Banker. The fact that your sick right now only means that you're sick, not that you're somehow deficient and less then somepony who's healthy more than you are. More to the point, the fact that your genes combined into someone with both your magical talent and incredible appearance makes them very far from 'bad'."

Great. She's not talking. Well, I'll get it out of her eventually. For now, I'ma just follow the two of them, and see how deep a hole Steel can dig for himself. I know it's bad of me, but I really want to see if the colt ends up in bed with a dragonborn. That'd win me the bet we've been having at the guard HQ, anyway.

Lovecraft personally wasn't surprised that the guard had taken to her. Many people did, a thing she was quite flattered about. Take that pure blood kirins! No- not all of them. Just those that liked flaunting their blood in front of everybody like it was best thing since sliced bread. "I'm sick because I'm deficient. But you're making a bigger deal out of it than need be. I know what I am, and I know that I'm all the better for it."

Those pure blooded kirins wouldn't care what happened outside their borders. They didn't even care for kirins that didn't fit within their flunky genetic experiments. They cast their own kin and blood out of the nation to die.

A light sigh escaped the monochrome guard's mouth. He still wasn't the least bit happy with the fact that kirin was looking at herself as deficient, or that that was just how she was going to be and nothing would ever change it. It was just part of his personality to see that he both protected and served every being that called Equestria their home, and part of that was making sure they were happy with themselves.

It was more of a personal thing than a guard thing, but he didn't care; that was just the way he was.

That was part of what the flirting was: An effort to make her feel better about herself. Though, it didn't hurt that- blood or not- the kirin actually did look fairly attractive. If she was cleaned up, she'd probably be very attractive as far as he was concerned. Though not as extreme as some ponies took it, part of him not caring about getting a Stallion or Mare also meant that he didn't care too much about what species he got as well.

He glanced up to check something, then nodded as he saw a red cross over a doorway. "We're here, Miss Lovecraft."

"Gotcha." Lovecraft said with a nod as she opened the door to be greeted with white. It definitely looked clean. Her eyes skimmed the splice, noting that there were new things in the ward. She'd never been to this hospital, but with a kirin that had training as a doctor she noticed these things. It'd just been a long time since she'd been in a hospital, and hadn't seen the updates in technology since last time she had been in one. Must've been about thirty six years ago. She'd managed to keep her skills up to par as a doctor on her friends.

Which had mysteriously started getting hurt in all sorts and manners and fashions after she had decided that she needed to find some how to make sure her skills didn't get rusty. After all- bad as her immune system was she needed to be able to treat herself the moment symptoms popped up. Speaking of…

Shortly after feeling a hiccup come on her horn hiccuped, flinging one of the empty mattresses to the ceiling and then flopping down in the middle of the corridor. Those medical ponies that hadn't already been looking at her were definitely now. She looked strangely and utterly calm, if a bit woozy and pained. Too much so for the amount of blood on her. Before she knew what was going on she had a wheel chair swept up under her and a mop up where she'd drippled blood on the floor. "Sure quick these guys are." Lovecraft expected nothing more from the medics of the Royal Guard.
