Octavia's Bow

She tilts her head at you, and suddenly lunges for your eye-patch, giggling. She wants to wear it now.... Things could get difficult for you fast. Except, you are saved by the magic of a particular purple unicorn who was collecting something she'd forgotten at Sugar Cube Corner before her movie. "She's quite the handful, huh?" Twilight asks. "He's... nervous. See, not many ponies work up the nerve to ask him on a date, anywhere. Not as friends, note as marefriends.... heck, not even as stallionfriends. They all think he's to work-driven fer a relationship an the like. Not a single one of em seems tuh think that maybe he's just shy... Here he comes now." Big Mac seems to drag his hooves up the hill. Other than not wearing his harness, he looks practically the same. As he grabs one Pinkie sets out another tray, "You made it!" She grins at you, "Great idea. Parties are always super duper fun, and this way I can show off the Cake's recipes!" Either she's forgotten the cupcake party was her idea, or she just doesn't care... He opens the doors the rest of the way to reveal a narrow staircase with ponies going almost all the way to the door. Suddenly, it becomes clear why he tripped. You have a feeling it could be a very long time until you see the princess. "As you step through the doorway, you might feel a slight tingle. That's the magic field. Good luck!" She whispers back, "Last year, I woke up at midnight and remarked about the clouds. Fluttershy corrected me by explaining a special kind of moth that migrates with the butterflies. This could go on all night." Fluttershy looks over at you to and starts to say something, but her eye catches on something and she gasps, then starts talking about a rare butterfly. Are you listening to her rant? She covers her mouth at your flustered gestures, only barely concealing her smile. "Interesting. A knight in shinning armor. Well, as it so happens, we seem to be having a tad bit of trouble guarding the paths of the Everfree at night. If your courage and sword hoof are as sharp as your court etiquette we could use you. How would you like to be the Night's knight?"

Sayaa smiled, '​A thief has her tricks.' At that moment, he recieved a text message from a five numbered caller ID. "You can now locate <Error>" Clicking the link would bring up a map with a flashing locator beacon. The beacon was obviously picked out of Lily's pocket or aircraft at somepoint, and was about the size of a bead. She'd planted it on Belinda when she through the gun at her. 'Have fun, I'll be there as soon as I figure out what books I want from this house.'

"You told me to take care of it. I took care of it. There should be five of you there, and you can leach some energy out of the trinket I gave you earlier. Check your pockets, it should look like the demon tags from oriental myth. It's a charge token. Not to much, but still worth making."

(G-Docs. Sorry it doesn't actually quote you guys. I left the highlighter on in case you wanted to see your posts.) Scilight Paitanibu, on 12 Aug 2014 - 12:20 PM, said: @Nightwing "Well, I was wanting to visit Twilight Sparkle. If you want to attack me, however..." Scilight trailed off. THen, he pulled out armor, and a weapon strictly for self defense though. He never experienced a royal guard's attention, since in his home, his guards are a million police and soldiers. "I am not hostile, of course. Even though Im a mayor of a technologi- Nevermind. But, anyway, do you and the alicorn mind if I visit her?" Scilight straightened his tie, and his pants a little bit. "Also, you ever seen a TechQuestrian soldier or policeman's duties? They are busy-busy! basically, my home's equivelant to you guys are the soldiers and policeman, who roam the streets, looking for criminals to bust. Ever heard of an electroshock baton? The police use those to detain criminals." Scilight then got one out, he turned on the baton. IT made a sort of shock sound, and it sparked, and started glowing white at the top a little bit He stares at you for a bit, “Sir, I’m going to have to ask you to leave your weapons or any other potential weapons with us while we prepare an audience. You’re lucky the Princess is so open, or I would have to demand an actual explanation for your presence. Furthermore, be notified that any and all magic is disabled inside the castle due to the security field you will be passing through upon entry. Please try to keep calm while waiting; the line can be substantially long. They, umm… They’re not all for her but we don’t really have space for multiple lines. Please wait paitently.” Count Paradox, on 12 Aug 2014 - 11:58 AM, said: Dox chuckled, seeing that she seemed to like quite a lot of things. "Well, seems that you like almost everything. Seeing as we'll have to wait a bit for our food, is there anything you wanna know about me? Go ahead and ask me anything." He smiled warmly at her. She just stares at you happily. You can’t tell if it’s because she’s mute or just blissfully content with her ignorance. It would seem that either way she loves you. Maybe you should just tell her things about yourself. Or think of another way to kill time. The DM really doesn’t care. <GLaDoS, you know you’re not supposed to do these!!! Umm… I care! I promise! I just can’t justify her keeping this many signs around her person…> ChikoritaBrony, on 12 Aug 2014 - 10:11 AM, said: Beta Ray shows up to the party. He decided to dress lightly by wearing a green tie. He also brought some pink flowers to give to Pinkie to show how much he cares for her. He takes a deep breath, and enters the party. He then starts to look for where Pinkie might be. Despite the fact that you didn’t invite anyone, there is still a large showing. While it doesn’t exactly fill the place, the underlying chatter is at a pleasantly dull mumble common in restaurants. Pinkie is in the kitchen, baking more cupcakes. (And a few muffins for Derpy, who did show up) She waves at you and smiles, but continues baking cupcakes. The cupcakes out right now or chocolate and white, marble, banana, and pumpkin. crisahys, on 12 Aug 2014 - 10:09 AM, said: Veiled Spike corrected her mistake and said, "Oh, I'm sorry. It's Sweet Apple Acres! You know how summertime can be quite confusing. Anyway, It's up on the hill near Sweet Apple Acres. By the way, I'm new to Ponyville, so tell my new friend, Applejack that I said, 'Hi!'" She trots to Sugarcube Corner to grab some sweets and then heads to Sweet Apple Acres to prepare for the date. Veiled Spike finally made it to Sweet Apple Acres to visit Big Mac. She sets down her supplies and made an attempt to call out for Big Mac, "Big Mac! It's Veiled Spike! I'm here with all the supplies ready for the date! I Hope you like some cupcakes and sandwiches!" Applejack crests the hill instead, “Hey, uhh, sugarcube. My brother’ll be here in a minute. He has a bit of a… well, he’s a little slow to new friends. The sunglasses are a nice touch though. Yer eyes can give a bit of a start to ponies who don’t know ya and all. How’s yer orientation gettin’ along?” She sits down politely of in front of you. DJ Shy-3, on 12 Aug 2014 - 12:31 PM, said: As DJ lands in front of Fluttershy, He thinks of how ironic it is how he is a pegasus who has never been to Cloudsdale. He was a pegasus born on land. He thinks of how the clouds that support Cloudsdale feels like a very very soft pillow that molds itself to fit his hooves, but not so much that it is noticeable. Soft and moldable, yet sturdy. Hoping that Fluttershy will lead the way, as he has no idea what is where, DJ asks, "So Fluttershy, where would you like to go?" “We’re going to go watch the annual butterfly migration. This year, they’ll be passing by Cloudsdale closer than they will be Ponyville. The wind was just a tad bit too strong for them to correct. But they should make it okay. Dash is here because she took a dare from Rarity.” “I’m going to sit through the whole thing this time! Just you watch, I’m not even going to THINK about sleep!” Fluttershy seems more excited than usual as she leads the two of you to a small Balcony cloud. From this cloud, you have a decent view of both Canterlot and Ponyville, as well as the mountainous horizon. You bet it would make for a pretty sunset in a few hours. To the east, a few butterflies pop out of the horizon. While Fluttershy stares intensely at the specks, Rainbow Dash has already begun yawning. The Shadow Stallion, on 12 Aug 2014 - 7:20 PM, said: Steelhide strode forward with his chin held high. As soon as he neared the throne he stopped and gracefully bowed low, holding position. "My apologies for disturbing thee at this late hour, princess." Steelhide said in a humble tone, keeping his head respectfully low. He would keep his head down until Luna said he could rise, as court protocol demanded of him. In truth princess Luna was only the second royal family member he had ever met, so he did not quite have that much practice at royal courts. He was mainly following protocols that were drilled into him when he himself was a guard. He berated himself mentally though as he realized that he was still wearing his helmet. He resolved that as soon as he was allowed to rise, if he was allowed, he would take it off. (Hmmm… How would you feel about a potential action flck?) “It is of no consequence. Such hours are my midday and such interruptions are my duty. You may rise. Rarely do I receive a guest with such manners.” She rewards you with a small smile, nodding at you to proceed with your introduction.

ALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLRIGHTY! I am still alive. And I'm going to sort out these double posts. Yes in deed. Mhmm. On a related note, I just want everyone to be on the same page: I don't expect posts from you guys if I haven't posted. Talking to blank-faced NPCs is difficult, I know.

"Thank you Rune. It smells amazing." She puts a healthy mix on her plate and waits for him. "So, how was your day? Anything exciting happen, or just the usual?" She smiles at him and eats small bites so that she can continue her end of the conversation easily. Also because it would make her more full faster.

(It's still night somewhere, right? Ehh, I hate my brother right now) *Time skip* It's party time! Who will show up to Pinkie's party, I wonder... Big Mac brings his cart to a stop and looks at you, trying to figure out if he knows you. Slowly he nods, and gets back to work pulling his cart. Silently, he hopes she meant Sweet Apple Acres. He didn't know where Sunny Apple Acres was located. ( ) She holds up her 'Hugs?' sign. Then she pulls out her Chrysalis doll. And then a copy of the Taco book from earlier. A picture of a butterfly. A screenshot of a computer with a bunch of random pages. Now she looks like she's trying to think up more things. You find yourself in Cloudsdale, where Fluttershy is waiting. Rainbow lands next to her and makes her look away from the edge. It takes a bit, before a huffing royal guard opens the door. "So... many stairs.... Uhh, ehem." He straitens up his armor, "Now, what is the nature of your visit?" The doors open to reveal an armor-clad Princess Luna sending two darkly-clad warrior-types out. As they pass, you notice silvered weapons at their hips and a sense of purpose. Luna sighs and mumbles something to herself about the roads at night. The moon shines brightly as a guard leads you to the stares proceeding to the throne. Lune rests her helmet in her lap as she mounts the throne to assume her royal duties.

"Mostly because you shot at me first. Partly because I believe Misha." She checks her phone, "Funny thing about him though. He's remarkably inconsistent. Hmmm... If I incapacitate the witch, it'd probably be a bonus boost, but that would mean fighting and potential loss of the prisoner..." "Oh, we can play this game. This might not even be the real me for all you know. Still..." She shoots Misha a text; Prep for encounter with prisoner ASAP. He's getting the hot drop to your last teleportation location. Drawing on the circle she drew earlier, she teleports Jason upside down to the same spot she dropped Misha not hours ago.

I already accepted you. Feel free to post. Go for it Posting will be delayed tonight. Probably till late.

She thinks for a minute... "Rune, you were going to give a speech to an audience that didn't know to show up with no preparation whatsoever... That's... an interesting strategy. Dinner it is!" She pulls him up and starts to go to the apartment. She shakes her head at this plan- it was not the most well thought-out plan ever.

"But... didn't you tell the kids there would be a speech? Shouldn't we at least notify them that there will be no speech?" ​He planned a speech without prepping any material? That's weird. He's usually very thoughtful about preparations... She looks at Rune quizzically, wondering about his methods.

"I know. I got your note," She smiles at Rune and grabs his hand. Leading him to sit down, she asks, "Are you nervous? Because according to statistics, public speaking is one of the number one fears of humanoid entities known to humans." She squeezes his hand comfortingly.

"You through the first bolt! Or was that purple magic designed to make me stronger? Because it made a nice hole in the wall. Both of them." She conjured up a riding harness for Cerberus and glared at Belinda, "On top of that, you are a targeted, dangerous assassin who helped my prisoner escape. Which is a problem. I have orders to take care of problems. Speaking of which..." She made a very convincing-looking illusion bird-cage around Jason. The magic would feel solid and real enough, but hit it too hard and it could shatter.

Synthia filed the last bit of 'To-Do' paperwork into a neat, organised paper file and headed to her apartment. Upon arrival, she noticed a key component out of place. Her husband was not there. She noticed a note, and then went to the cafeteria to go find him.

While she can never read your mind, I am the DM. The DM knoows all, sees all, and screws with your world. If I know your thoughts, I can better screw with it. Throw you a bone, present you with a challenge, or understand why you decided to do something. Now, checking up on that character page from last page If you haven't already, maketh thine postadesu. If... you want to. I can try to make that work. But you are going to have to get over a loooooot. Those Eyes of Sauron ain't helping. Go ahead and make your first post. Most of them. The shorter list is the list of taken ponies. I'm going to need an OC page. If I missed it, I'm sorry. I was gone all last weekend >.< Acceptamundo. Good luck with my Waifu. @@Comet Tail, Kip S. Thorne? That is what my google reaserch has lead me to believe. I try to avoid non-fiction like the plague. Only four? I feel like we're missing a ton of people...

She hoped onto Cerberus the One-Headed and nodded, "Right after you. You said your name was Shane, right? I was a bit distracted during that introduction; the Fedora Channel caught my eye." She brings her demonic dog up to his pizza box and sighs to herself. "The things I do for friend who won't consider me a friend... Time to catch a b*tch. I mean, a witch." She opens the door, a ball of energy read to fling at the next enemy she sees as she charges. As she opened the door, two purple blasts shook the far wall of the house. It was obvious that the intent was to scare them out as there was no real aiming involved. After checking up to see that Shane was alright, she followed the lock she had on Belinda's signature and threw her bolt of conjuration magic at her. While it wasn't really an attack spell, it was still a bolt of soul-draining energy that should probably be avoided.

"Aww, how nice!" she giggles, "All in the life of a Super Duper Party Pony! The movie should end at about 6 o'clock, so the party should be ready at 8! Invite your friends!" Suddenly, she's gone to go meet Twilight. It would seem you have a party to prepare for. She holds up the Muffin sign, smiling at you. You fear that she's about to jump across the table at you, but she just scoots a seat right next to you. She's practically on your lap. Pointing at the menu, she indicates an Apple Cinnamon muffin. She then claps happily. A pony behind the counter stares at you expectantly. She shrugs, "I should be good on most questions. How about you ask an I- Woap!" Some water had collected in an especially deep hole in the ground. The normally sure-of-foot buffalo is falling towards you, her trade-goods about to be ruined in the water-filled pot-hole. How will your horse-drawn picture of this distracting scene look, I wonder... Rainbow Dash comes to the door, "Huh? Oh, hey. You must be the guy. Is he the guy?" Angel nods, pointing at you. "Alright. Listen, follow me Fluttershy doesn't NORMALLY like being up this high, but it was the only place I- uhh, she could think of. That she would accept." Just like that, Rainbow disapeers with a flash and a steady wind. "Already?" Twilight's voice comes down, "I thought his mom said the daiting books would last at least a week. It's been about three days, right?" "Twilight, it's been five." Spike calls back up the stairs. He sighs at you, "Sorry, she gets like this." A rather bedraggled Twilight comes down stairs. Her magic levitates the books away from you and onto the shelves. A quick glance in the mirror makes her blush. "Sorry, I need a moment." She disapeers and comes back a little less raggedy. "Alright. Were you looking for something specific? We got a couple more Bit Thorne books in... Gravity, and his Stars and Relativity." She digs through a stack, "And some... more adult themed... books. Spike, who ordered these?" Twilight's blushing spreads slowly across her face, as a duo of snickering comes from outside. A bluish streak and a pink streak fly away from the window at attempted observation. She laughs, "We're going to the movie! How... hard did you hit your head." Pinkie bounces up, looking extremely pleased with herself. "We're gunna have a PASTRY BAKING PARTY later~"

"Misha wants witch b*tch dead. Cowboy with the weird shooter stopped him. Then Azura called Misha and I teleported him over there. Witchy returned and freed cowboy. You were here for most of it, blazed so hard you make Snoop look normal. Misha wants us to solve his problem. So let's go witch hunting." (Reminds me of Soul Eater again)

She tilts her head and smiles at you, before holding up a picture of a cupcake and a muffin. She seems to be asking you which you would like, while tilting her adorable little head quizzically. Taking a look around, you see the route to Sugar Cube Corner nearby. She probably planned this. "Little Strongheart, of the Canyon Buffalo." She easily leaves the trading post, "Most of this land used to be ours. We have a deal with the townsfolk, though. They gives us apple pies and such, and we let them stay. As long as they maintain the stampeding trail, we tend to get along. Well, as long as they tend the stampeding trail, and we keep Pinkie from singing anyway... Come on, trails this way." "Ohh, this is all very fast," she says softly, "Umm... yes... meet me here on Monday." Oh dear, oh dear, where do we go? I'll ask Rainbow Dash! She'll know what to do! "Oh,thank you! I really, really like to bake them. It makes a LOT of smiles! But these ones were baked by Mr. and Mrs. Cake. I was actually about to head out with one of my friends. Hey! I know! After the movie, we can have a CUPCAKE TASTING PARTY! We can have chocolate, and flour, and lemon-flavored! Oh, it will be the greatest! I'll hold it right outside! It should only take two shakes of a tail to make, too. Wanna come?"

Well, this is a mess. Alrighty. Guys, I'm going to try to post tonight. Then, for the next five days, you will here very minimal from me as I will be cabinning...ing. I will try to post before we leave, which shouldn't be hard. Now I will resolve your problems. With a form of hope. @@Comet Tail, Do what you'd like. But Mal has been gone for quite some time now and from our conversations doesn't seem to want to come back. (At least until Pony comes back) If he did, and you were in a relationship, I would create a rare alternate universe. @@Deathstroke, Glad to see an OC page. Now I need who you would like to date, and also an openning post after I accept you. Paperwork, you understand. @, I'm assuming you want the OC in your description to be your main character? @, BELIEVE IN THE DAWNEH THAT IS WRITING YOUR POSTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! TRUST IN ME TO BE FLUTTERS SO THAT YOU CAN BE YOU IN THE GREATEST, MOST FANTASTICAL WAY POSSIBLE. But seriously though, trust me to plan things in a fassion that is fare to the both of you. I have Page's point system up and -wirring, boom boom, whirring down- mostly operational. Any competition will be based on character appeal, 'spending time' with waifu (Maybe coming up with more than the bare minimum *Angry eyes some people*), and appeal, with bonus awarded to ponies who had spent time prior. So like in real life, the later you start the harder it gets. Which reminds me. GENERAL NOTE TO ALL ASK LOVERS Look guys, you're supposed to love these people/ponies. Sometimes, the obvious thing is not the right thing. You know, be daring a little bit. But yourself out there. Or bend fate to do it for you! I mean, when I first started this deal, Pwny was in charge. Now he was an AMAZING DM, so he made it much easier on us guys to post. But guys, we were expected to post more than just the two hundred word minimum. At the time, I was mega-crushing on Applejack. But I'm not an outgoing person. And the character I used was based on me, BECAUSE I knew it would be easy for me to write me. (At the time, you understand.) I have poems to Applejack. I have the story Pwny made for me all saved on a G-Doc. It helps when I need a pick-me-up. But I fought for her! And I sure as hay didn't do it with a 200 word minimum post. Yes, they are fictional characters. BUT THEY ARE FICTIONAL CHARACTERS! Yes, you might get rejected. But how will you know if you don't try! This is a realationship guys! I've been in minimalistic realtionships. Heck, I'm in one right now. At the end of the day, someone goes home feeling numb. Just... I want you guys to do better. Give me more. ACT like you actually love them, if you really don't. Please. I swear if you do this, my posts will get better. The more you risk, the more I have to go off. And you might not get the girl you picked, but there are tons. TONS. of other mares who might get the courage to ask you. And maybe, just maybe, you might win the heart of the one that counts to you. /endpeptalk /enddawnpathrant /endscolding /endwhateverthisis /endtransmition /end /elfin Footnote: Try to understand that being bold is not the best decision for all dates (this is not a foreign concept to me), while at the same time being passively shy all the time is similarly not the best way to go.

How exactly. She's not fighting back and she expects me to just go off and chase Jason. Soooooooooo, you know, suggestions. Here, we can trade! Don't die. See, advice. Now you can give me more helpful advice, because I swear if you tell me not to die I will teleport over there and kill you myself.

She turns and looks at you expectantly, "Yes, Mr. DJ?" Chrssalis looks at you with a sly smile, "Keep thinking that, lover boy." She briefly morphs into you, then into Fluffle, then back to herself, and cackles evily. Fluffle Puff notices you and makes happy noises, quickly walking around with you on her back. Suddenly you're being paraded around happily outside of the tree house. Some passerbys look at you sympathetically, thinking you've been captured. "That's me!" She offers you a cup cake, before calling out to Twilight who was leaving with another colt, "I'll be right there!!" She turns back to you, "Welcome to Sugar Cube Corner! Is there anything super duper awesomely delicious that I can get for you?"

When you post in the RP section.

Then I would like to ask who's asking, and receive it in the form of a character page. And then we might see what happens.

Okay. Need your OC page to check out, and then you should be good.
