'Tia Leaf

Leaf picked a section of the room to herself, not too far from the others, and shrugged her saddlebags off. She set them gently on the floor, to not damage the contents, and sat down on the floor. Enclave? Can't say that I have. She pushed her glasses back up to her eyes, peering past the cracked glass at her new companions carefully. Are you all a part of it or something?

Well, at first it started with Three Musketeers, but I couldn't really get into that, so I moved onto a series called the Dresden Files, by Jim Butcher. Pretty good stuff, about magic, and vampires, and dinosaurs. Sometimes ghosts. I'd highly recommend it.

Why hello there! Hello there giggle! How have you been? And yes, it is great! I had nothing better to do while my internet provider was keeping dank memes from me, so I read a lot of books. Of course now that it is back, I can return to my daily life of memes and ponies without having to leave my bed. Life is good.

Still unsure of the whole situation, but realizing that these ponies didn't mean her harm at this point, Leaf followed the group. Promoted? She didn't even know these ponies...but again being part of a group is probably better than scrounging alone, wondering if you are going to be mugged any second. Not like she had much to take though. It was an odd group, though the diversity meant that much could be learned, though she was curious about the other Pegasus. Usually they kept to themselves up in the sky, and the only ones she had known were her fellow dwellers. She wasn't aware there were anymore like her on the surface. Y-yeah there is...was... Leaf trot along slowly towards the offices where they were apparently going to be staying, her eyes mostly focused on the ground to avoid any eye contact with the others. I think mine might have been the only one, but I can't be sure. We didn't really have much contact with anypony else... She kicked at a pile of dirt absentmindedly as she walked by it. It was...nice, I suppose. I think they tried to make it resemble the real sky, perhaps that was their intent anyway, but you could tell it was artificial. The sounds, the smells...it was all...fake. Still, family and friends made it home. For awhile...

My internet has once again regained its stability, and I can connect again! That being said, hello again, everypony.

The mare flinched slightly, and took a step back as the unknown group of ponies crowded around her, her disheveled wings instinctively flapping slightly at the mention of her being a pegasus. The glasses she wore, had slid down her muzzle to the tip of her nose and her eyes darted between each of the ponies in turn as they spoke, introducing themselves. At least they were not robbing her, so that was a positive. U-uh...yeah...h-hello... She blinked a couple times, and awkwardly reached out a hoof to take Ellieum's, still glancing back and forth to her Zebra and Pegasus companions. Yeah...I live in a stable. Well...did, I guess. The name is Loose Leaf...though just Leaf is fine.

Roger that, captain. My internet has been on the fritz lately, sadly, but I will get a post up as soon as I can hold a stable connection.

You can post when you can, but I do know how work can be. It does tend to eat up a majority of your time, even moreso if the job is demanding and stressful. Still, I wish you the best, and hope that you can rejoin sometime soon.

Ah, I was not aware I had the privileges to change it. There, Leaf has been added. Yay, Pegafriends. Haha.

Flails more and rolls under the couch. Yeah I feel you there! I usually say it as a greeting, or to break up silences. I do not like it when it is quiet...

Ack! Flails and rolls around on the floor.

That's okay, I tend to say "Beep bep" frequently myself haha. Even in meatspace! Well...especially there. I do not really say it online much.

Still a robot eh? I mean, that's cool. Robots are pretty rad, good dancers too.

The mare stood in place for what seemed like years, her mind filling with possible outcomes to her situation. None of them favorable... She was obviously outnumbered, and despite being surrounded by guns, her affinity towards them put a damper on that plan. She could run, but they might chase her, or just shoot. If she stood around too long they would end up just shooting anyway. She sighed heavily. Only one thing left to do... Alright! Alright...jeez... Trotting slowly and carefully, the pegasus stepped out from behind the shelves and into view, being careful to not bump into anything this time. No need to be rude about it. She stared past her cracked spectacles at the unknown ponies before her. They hadn't shot her yet, so that was a good sign. She just hoped it stayed that way.

Eevee would have to be my favorite. Though more specifically, probably Sylveon. Glaceon is a close second, her design is really nice, and I have always fancied it.

It was a complete accident too haha, but I mean...cool.

Beep bep. All the the beeps and beps.

​Unfortunately for the scavenger, the noises did not seem to stop. In fact, they seemed to become slightly louder, and more consistent. She was not alone, she was almost certain of it now. Had some raiders made their way in? If they did, she was not equipped to deal with such threats. It would be a fight she would surely lose. The pegasus edged around in the darkness some more, creeping her way towards a door in the distance that was hopefully unlocked, and would lead her away from this predicament. Keeping her eyes on the shadows in the distance, she made the unfortunate mistake of not watching where she was going. With a THUD, the mare ran into an old shelf, piled high with bits of rusty metal and boxes. She yelped in surprise, taking a step backwards from the object she bumped into, and looked at it in horror as the slight tap was enough to cause it to become unbalanced, and come crashing down to the floor. The boxes, the scrap, the rusted guns all clattered to the floor loudly around her. C-crap... She stammered, staring at the mess before her with wide, terrified eyes. If the raiders did not know she was here before, they certainly did now. With her luck, the whole scene had probably echoed through the entire facility.

Not a problem. It is understandable, work tends to do that haha.

Funny that, neither am I! We can both not be here together.

The pegasus chuckled with glee, finally smiling as her luck began to turn. Humming a tune to herself she pulled some bits of metal and wire, along with some old cloth out of a crate, and deposited the scraps into one of her saddlebags. It wasn't the most amazing of treasure, but at least it was somewhat useful. She had just shut the lid to the crate and began to close the clasp of her bag when she perked up her ears. Noises? She hadn't noticed them before what with the whole top half of her body shoved into a crate, preoccupied with looting. Wind...probably just the wind...or this old place falling apart... The mare muttered to herself, her eyes scanning the darkened room around her. She came here alone, and as far as she knew nopony else was here. There was nothing but old crates and shelves.

Ah yes! Terribly sorry. I shall get on that right away. Noted. I shall keep that in mind then.

Probably the best way to approach things haha.
