Aurora Gleam

Banned for banning in reference to Derpy!

It's no problem. I'm always happy to help

I lost access to the RP forums for a while, just got back in tonight

I'd just recommend working on using commas to separate clauses. Other than that, it seems good . Oh, and try to keep separate paragraphs for different speakers.

Welcome Yumiko, everypony here is excited and happy to have a new friend

She smirked at Scarlett's grumbling. " Once we get out of the area, I'll show you one of the vulnerabilities I built into their sensors; as a sign of good faith." I think I'm going to get along with this pony quite well, assuming we live long enough to build some trust She sighed and turned her IFF beacon back on and stepped out the door. Looking back to Scarlett she started, "I'm turning on my beacon so they will identify me as machine, you should..." Seeing neither hide nor hair of the aforementioned pony, she just chuckled and shook her head. "Someday you're going to have to let me take a look at that tech" she chuckled and began to walk.

Aurora manages to avoid jumping when Scarlett decloaked so suddenly. "I don't think that would be a good solution right now." She pauses to think for a moment and something clicks in her mind. "Hawks have magic detection sensors. Any active uses of magic within their range would alert them to the presence of a pony in the area. They are also particularly resilient to most methods of illusion magic." She looks away, seeming ashamed as she says this. She shakes her head to clear her thoughts. " If you still have gaps in your local knowledge, let me know later. As for now, lets get out of here quietly. Once we're out of their sensor range, I'm more than happy to let you tether so we can fly some of the way there. Sound good to you?" She finishes, looking to Scarlett.

Aurora woke to a quiet alert on her display. Oh no, Hawks! She looked around quickly, seeing that it was just before dawn. She moved about halfway across the room towards where Scarlett had cloaked. "Scarlett, Hawks are incoming. Now would be a great time to get going. Hopefully we can get out of here before we're noticed." She began her pre-flight checks in order to activate her advanced-flight systems. Looking back to the corner that she assumed still held the cloaked figure. "I'm planning on flying out of here, that is unless you can't fly, in which case we walk... quickly."

I'm sorry. So many tests last week and trying to get scheduled for classes. >< If it's okay with you I'm just going to jump ahead to the next day for us.

Yaaaaaay! *faceplants on keyboard and starts snoring*

Indeed. plus you could decide to go out of the house and run across a cat in particularly dire-straits . It's an RP, meaning it's what you make of it.

Auto-Pilot: Disabled; Aurora Shook herself slightly. She always felt a little stiff after letting the machine 'take over'. After a moment she turns to Scarlett. "Once we get to a secure... ish, location, we can trade specifications. Until then, I would rather not stay in the open." She turns and walks into the nearest building. Once inside she turns back to Scarlett, "Allright. We both want some answers, especially about our tech. Perhaps we could start by trading questions." she says, sounding eager. Rather than sitting or lying down, she just stops moving and maintains a standing position. "I'll start by answering your question. I charge by using a magic-conversion matrix of my own design. Now, regarding your suit..." The questions and answers go on for several hours, leading into the night. Finally getting to a point of satisfaction, Aurora nods and declares, "Perhaps it would be best to rest here for the night. We can proceed to our destination in the morning."

Aurora stepped back into the sunlit streets of Ponyville, mentally preparing herself for the standard procedures she used when approaching Enforcers. She noticed that Scarlett was no longer showing up on her sensors, but didn't look back to see where she was; if this went downhill, she didn't want to accidentally show the enemy where her newest acquaintance was hiding. Activate auto-pilot: Standard Enforcer approach; Confirmed. Her movements immediately took on a mechanical quality, the auto-pilot unable to completely emulate the natural motions of a pony. Aurora turned towards where her sensors were displaying several Enforcers. It was looking like a standard search and sweep pattern. Unfortunately, they were to the west, between her... them, and Manehattan. Authentication Request Received sounded the message she'd grown too used to. At least it appeared the Enforcers hadn't received any kind of protocol upgrades since she'd last checked. Confirm Encrypted Authentication Protocol: Confirmed. Her auto-pilot hid any hesitations or fear that she may have felt. She approached the nearest Enforcer as it went through the processes of decrypting her authentication, and confirming that against her IFF signal. While this was taking place, she had approached and stopped in front of one of the Enforcers, standing still as only a machine could. Authentication Accepted She immediately began sending the data from her search of Ponyville, minus the anomalous signature that had lead her to Scarlett. The Enforcers stopped for a moment while processing through the data, before immediately traveling east, through the town. "I'm just going to assume you're still here. About twenty minutes should put them far out of sensor range. If you can hold out that long, I'd like to stay here the night. I prefer to have everything fully charged before leaving" Aurora seemed to say to herself.

Pausing a moment to look at her scanner, she sighed inwardly. She could tell that this pony would be an ideal companion, if all things checked out. Was it really worth the risk though? Even if said pony seemed focused on practicality, there was an inherently greater risk of traveling in numbers, especially considering how Aurora sought to blend in instead of just hiding. She shook her head again, clearing the extra thoughts for the moment; there were more immediate things to deal with. "I'll deal with them. Can you hide yourself again? Just because my sensors may pick you up doesn't mean theirs will and I'd prefer to get out of here without a fight, if possible" She trotted over to the door, not really waiting for a response. "Oh, call me Aurora." She said as she was preparing to exit the building.

Deliberately keeping her back to the other pony, she responded "Now... we take a moment to determine if we can establish a trust." Glancing back for just a moment. "I've already cleared this building, so we should have at least a little while where nopony... or anything else, should find us." Looking around the room one last time she sighs and thinks to herself 'This is such a mess. Who is this stranger, what's going on with that signal...' She finally turns around, facing the scarlet pony, and stands completely still. "Who are you, what are you doing here, and how did you avoid my sensors?"
