Sleep is much more important than this RP. You don't have to be awake when this RP start. Welcome!

Looks good to me! You're in! The RP should be up at 8am or 9am (GMT).

@ I've been able to read what you've typed so far. You'll probably be fine.

For now, let's have one OC each. If no one is joining after a while, I'll start to let people have two OCs on the go.

@@Demirari, @rainbowpie8904 and You're all in! We're going to start tomorrow so there's still time for more players to join. If you want, invite some friends.

ARGH! I hope you can return as quickly as possible.

Sure, but can you provide a link?

RP: http://mlpforums.com/topic/83742-free-time-in-fillydelphia/ Just like any SOL RP, you're free a lot of things in the fair land of Fillydelphia. Make friends, look for love or be a general miscreant up to no good, just like any SOL. Rules: 1. Any race is permitted EXCEPT Alicorns. 2. Stay sensible. Yes, it's an SOL. No, you can't go on a killing spree and declare yourself the Emperor. 3. Keep things PG-13. Expletives are permitted but DO NOT overdo it. 4. This one ties with the above. If your characters do get together, don't describe what they do "in the sheets". Such acts may be hinted at but NOT described in great detail. Do that on Skype or the PMs 5. Characters can be killed PROVIDED that all parties give consent. 6. Magic is allowed but not in a way that is hideously overpowered. If in doubt, ASK! 7. ALWAYS ask before doing something that may affect the entire RP. 8. If there is going to be a long break between posts, say so. 9. Keep your spelling, punctuation and grammar to an acceptable standard. Players: (All members in red are available for replacement due to inactivity. If you want to join and all positions are filled, you may be able to replace an inactive member.) As for now, there will be a maximum of 8 characters playing. I am one of them: 1. @Filthy Cropper - Glacier Shard: http://mlpforums.com/page/roleplay-characters/_/glacier-shard-r2563 2. @rainbowpie8904 - Lilly Springs: http://mlpforums.com/page/roleplay-characters/_/lilly-spring-r5369 3. - Slava Medik: http://mlpforums.com/page/roleplay-characters/_/slava-medik-r3245 4. @Demirari - Architectural Dream: http://mlpforums.com/page/roleplay-characters/_/architectural-dream-r5435 5. @Scribblegroove - Streamsung Swann: http://mlpforums.com/page/roleplay-characters/_/streamsung-swann-r5689 6. @**Appleshy** - Appleshy: http://mlpforums.com/page/roleplay-characters/_/appleshy-r4797 7. @Gloomfury - Shamrock: http://mlpforums.com/page/roleplay-characters/_/shamrock-r5088 8. @Ampharos - Dawnblink: http://mlpforums.com/page/roleplay-characters/_/dawnblink-r5565

Sounds good to me. Don't reveal too much though!

I'm thinking of there being some sort of conspiracy or a secret project of some sort. Perhaps an abandoned project to create super-powerful ponies that was abandoned due to "unforseen circumstances"?

@@Pat.Rio.T. Sure thing. She's likely to end up having to get along with them anyway.

I'm up for something like this. It seems a good place to play with Glacier Shard. http://mlpforums.com/page/roleplay-characters/_/glacier-shard-r2563

@ Closing his eyes, Pondah took a few deep breaths, completely oblivious to Bubble's gaze. "It's ok," Pondah replied, slowly opening the door. "I'm sure I'm just being stupid and worrying over nothing." Pondah entered the room to an eerie silence. No one was in the downstairs area so, Pondah concluded, everyone must be upstairs. He rubbed his hooves on a mat to try and dry them and then held the door for Bubble. "Is anypony still here?" Pondah asked loudly. "I'm sorry that I'm not working."

@ and Pondah turned his head to the source of a greeting. It took a few moments but he was eventually able to place the pony as the one who turned up at the office for a short period. "Hello," Pondah replied quietly as Rut-Light moved away. The office was in sight and the ground was still littered with puddles. Lifting his mane so that it didn't get wet, Pondah traversed the puddles and stood by the door. He gulped and prepared himself for what may happen next. 'Please Mr. Sky isn't angry that I left...'

@ "N.. no," Pondah said quietly, the smile fading from his face after seeing Bubble's worry. "I.. it's not that. You've nudged me before and I'm getting morre used to physical contact. I just felt really strange for a moment. You haven't done anything wrong." Pondah's head drooped. "Sorry if I made you worry." The pair left the lobby of the hotel and started heading towards the office. The streets were bare and dotted with puddles. It was evident that the storm made the residents of Baltimare too worried to come out. Pondah and Bubble's steps were accompanied by a variety of splashes and ripples.

@ Pondah giggled at Bubble's reaction to his plan. "Moving isn't that much of a big decision," he explained. "It's not like I have any major preparation to do. Once I get some money together, I can move my few posessions over here." Pondah smiled and continued, "Anyway, it should be easy. Mr. Sky offered me a room so as long as I can earn a bit a month, accomodation is easy." The smile stayed on Pondah's face as the pair walked down the corridor and into the lobby of the hotel. As they exited the hotel, Pondah was bumped sideways by a nudge from Bubble. A confused look crossed his face as his cheeks flared red. 'W.. what was that? That nudge felt warm... and nice. This is strange.'

@ Pondah ran ahead slightly to catch up with the over-eager Bubble. He nodded slightly as he listened to her. "It's normal to want to prove ponies wrong," Pondah said, trying to console Bubble. "I think ponies will think you can't do anything serious because you're a joyful soul. Ponies like you are expected to be useless at anything serious." Pondah turned his head towards Bubble and smirked before continuing. "The thing is, the erratic ones are the most likely to think of things nopony else will. The zany ones are used to defying convention." Pondah breathed a long overdue sigh of relief. 'Who would of thought it? I've been back for a few minutes and Bubble has attempted murder! Sometimes, things are good.' Stumbling on a lump in the carpet, Pondah's head snapped forwards again. "Yeah," Pondah agreed. "I've been overdue some luck. Thing is, the more I think about it, the more I realise something. I've only met you and Sky because I took a chance on coming to Baltimare. I only got a job because I took a chance on Baltimare. I've started smiling because I took a chance on coming to Baltimare. I've made my mind. I'm moving here."

@ Bubble's sketchy explanation of intent shocked Pondah for a good reason. "Were you making a weather machine?" Pondah assumed. "I drew up some hasty plans for a simple one before I came here! Perhaps we could help each other." Pondah's eagerness and excitement that someone else was working with a similar invention cause him to speak quicker and quicker. The mention of work brought him back down to Earth. "Work's great!" Pondah exclaimed. "It feels really good knowing that I'm helping. I may only be doing small things in large scheme and the rest of Equestria may never know or care about what I do; I don't care. At least I know I'm helping. That's all that matters. Shall we go?"
