  1. Getting there the day before is a nice little advantage, you can check the route, make sure you've got the right place, etc. I intend to go down to the convention hotel the day before as well. It's massively reassuring to me to make sure of details and to know the route I will need to take the day before, to avoid any unnecessary confusion.
  2. Less than 6 days to go!
  3. @Pr0m4NV14, @Orange Sparks, @CentipedeGhoul "The name's Raven," Raven fumed at Cinnamon not remembering her name as she thought he had heard her introduce herself to Bridge. Then, noticing the hospital itself, she noticed though in the countryside, the exterior of the building was presentable. Appaloosa lacked a proper hospital with the sheriff's office being the only area with medical equipment, so this was the first time, Raven had laid eyes on a proper hospital. She was impressed and it's size suggested there was room for a good few injured ponies who needed treatment and Raven stood still to admire the building for a bit.
  4. @Pr0m4NV14, @CentipedeGhoul, @Orange Sparks Raven decided now they were on the way to the hospital, she might as well stay part of the group, but she did admire the sight of colourful flowers and their delightful scents as they passed by a few gardens on their way.
  5. @Pr0m4NV14, @CentipedeGhoul, @Orange Sparks Raven nodded in agreement, but now wondered if taking Cinnamon to hospital required three ponies. It probably didn't, but the clumsy fall of Cinnamon made her worry and once Cinnamon was being treated and at hospital, she would make an excuse to leave and maybe ask the pony she thought to be a local for a proper tour.
  6. Meanwhile, in the sandy frontier town of Appaloosa, ponies were starting to gossip that the royal family were planning something like possibly the next Galloping Gala. Raven was surprised to hear about it, rumours from Canterlot seldom came all the way to Appaloosa, but she got home from work, an invitation letter was waiting for her. She read it with shock the first time, but then took a deep breath and read it again and the words hadn't changed, the invite to a coronation was genuine. "Hmm, I thought Appaloosa was still off-radar for these sort of things," Raven commented, but it did intrigue her and she had never been to Canterlot or the royal castle before. Adventure and a chance to see areas beyond the sandy streets of Appaloosa appealed to Raven. In truth, there were times seeing a tumbleweed roll through town at mid-day reminded Raven that when there was no rodeos or a buck-ball match, Appaloosa did get quiet, but the big city of Canterlot would be more much vibrant and have greater amount of activity. Her mind made up by that fact, Raven trotted to the train station, paid the ticket fee and got on the train to Canterlot.
  7. A country styled hat like what Applejack wears.
  8. @Pr0m4NV14, @CentipedeGhoul, @Orange Sparks Raven took notice of the Earth pony introducing himself as Cinnamon Spice and added a greeting nod to show she had paid attention, but when the Earth pony said he'd never got her name when he was in the vicinity when she introduced herself to Bride, she was a little annoyed. Then, another new arrival on scene said "Uh, no, you weren't exactly disturbing me." Took a look at Bridge and added a respectful nod and stated he'd been worried. "Hay, ya' wouldn't know where the nearest hospital is?" Raven asked in the direction of the newcomer as she thought he might be local and the Earth pony might still need a check-up.
  9. @Pr0m4NV14, @Orange Sparks While, she had been glancing over Bridge McBride, trying to formulate an opinion on him as she had never met an Emerald Isles resident before, Raven didn't notice the Earth pony had left until she heard unclear mumbling and looked back at the Earth pony in puzzlement in what he was mumbling about.
  10. @Alex Van Gamer, @ThunderCrush, @nx9100, @Kulstor, @Mysterious Way, @Cosmic Breeze Raven noticed the blue unicorn with a yellow mane order the same thing she did. Maybe he was expecting to get her to pay for him, and that wouldn't sit well with Raven. Or that was until, she noticed he had hoofed over two gold bits. Then, when Pinkie returned and gave her a plate of the six brownies she had ordered, she wondered if Pinkie had noticed her first under her breath comment. Still, that mattered not as she decided to find a free table to enjoy her brownies. She soon found one and took a seat near the window. It was still grand to Raven's eye to notice the scenery around Ponyville was different to Appaloosa. Even the difference between sandy paths and dirt paths were noticeable, but the bigger difference was the amount of greenery around in the trees, the grass and the fresh flowers being grown in the gardens. As she had been preoccupied to find a table, Raven failed to notice Thunder's odd look.
  11. @Alex Van Gamer, @Trixie ., @Kulstor, @nx9100, @Mysterious Way, @ThunderCrush, @Cosmic Breeze "Ya' could buzz off," Raven muttered under her breath as she was still sour Pinkie and the Ponyville team had defeated the Appaloosa team in a recent buck-ball match. Still, her rumbling stomach betrayed her into giving a reason to stay in Sugar Cube, try to nice to Pinkie and get a sweet treat or something to eat. "Make my order," Raven said and then pondered a rotten revenge scheme which she thought would take Pinkie all day to accomplish. She thought about requesting something difficult to make or something that require ingredients, a bakery and a sweet shop was unlikely to have and then put gold bits onto the counter, so by paying for this alleged good, she would twist Pinkie's hoof by forcing her to provide the service. She thought if she could come up with a rotten, diabolical revenge scheme, she would, but her stomach wouldn't wait all day and neither would the other customers. "Ugh, make my order, six chocolate brownies," Raven caved into her stomach, rather than a revenge scheme and accepted the scheme would have to wait.
  12. @Cosmic Breeze, @Trixie ., @Kulstor, @Mysterious Way, @ThunderCrush Raven Mystery grudgingly followed the others to Pinkie's, not particularly wanting to come across her, but judging she didn't know her way around Ponyville and still needed a tour, she thought it easier to do this small task than it was to get lost for hours on end. Still, on entering Sugar Cube corner, the waft of bread baking and the scent of muffins and sweet treats soon made her stomach rumble.
  13. @Orange Sparks, @Pr0m4NV14 "Raven Mystery," Raven introduced herself to Bridge as she thought it plain rude not to after he gave his name. She also exchange a glance over the pony looking over his mane, coat and tail all to help her make a judgement about Bridge and to help her remember what he looked like for future meetings.
  14. @Orange Sparks, @Pr0m4NV14 Raven briefly noticed the traveller ask the earth pony whether he was all right, but she then noticed the Earth pony was speaking and heard "I'm okay, thanks." And noticed his hat fly off into the wind, but the wind had already grabbed it and blew it away. Then, she heard the Earth pony apparently apologising rather unnecessarily for bothering the traveller when he might be hurt. "You shouldn't say sorry, if you're really hurt. Where's the nearest hospital around these parts?" Raven asked the Earth pony, thinking it best he got checked out and it was better safe than sorry.
  15. @Pr0m4NV14 Raven was stunned that the clumsy Earth pony fell over. "Are you okay?" She asked with some concern hoping the clumsy pony hadn't hurt him too much. She also thought she would offer an assisting hoof to help him back to his hoof if required, but she knew some stubborn Earth ponies like her father liked to recover from clumsy trips without help.
  16. @The Shyest One I might do.
  17. @Pr0m4NV14, @Orange Sparks Raven Mystery began to canter around town at a slow and steady pace, happy to feel the refreshing breeze whipping past her and she saw other ponies pass her by on their day to day activities and didn't want to disrupt them, but she stopped and sat at a open café table as she thought about having a coffee or a light sandwich.
  18. @Cosmic Breeze, @Trixie ., @Kulstor, @Mysterious Way, @ThunderCrush "Uh..." Raven stuttered and had a flashback to when Appaloosa had narrowly lost a buck-ball match to Ponyville and remembered a certain pink happy pony along with a pale gold Pegasus who was a little more jittery at times and a young unicorn colt were all members of the Ponyville team that defeated Braeburn and his team. "I know who Pinkie is," Raven soured as she remembered the pink pony called herself Pinkie and she and the Pegasus rubbed in their victory by telling Braeburn not to take the contest seriously. A bit of sourness also came from the fact, she didn't recall Pinkie when the Pegasus had mentioned her and it wasn't until her name was mentioned a few times, the flashback memory had been triggered. (Uh, I'll change this if my logic on the OOC thread is flawed.)
  19. @Orange Sparks, @Pr0m4NV14 Raven saw a Thestral pony pass her in the sky and make his way into a nearby inn. Possibly to rest for the night, but figured if the pony wanted rest then she was not one in to intrude upon his plan. However, as steam burst out of the pistons, a light brown Earth pony backed into her. "Oof," she groaned a bit from not seeing him coming and a little bit of frustration, but then noted he was kind enough to offer an apology, though it also sounded like a question with the er bit first. "It's okay, it was a rough ride in," Raven reluctantly forgave the earth pony, remembering her plan to explore Ponyville and then recomposed her dark cobalt blue mane a bit with a stroke across her back.
  20. My concept is usually respect is earned. I don't tend to be the type to trust on first meeting and I will analyse from first glance onwards. When having little choice, but to have respect for another as when like meeting a hotel receptionist for the first time, but needing to check in and confirm the booking's in place and there's no unexpected hiccup, then I achieve that goal and move on. I'll greet and meet in a friendly manner, but that doesn't mean my respect has been gained. Some may say this is judgemental or harsh, but we all know first appearances can be deceiving from judging an usually friendly person to being unfriendly, to an usually unfriendly person to be friendly. You just don't know unless more comes out from the first encounter or you meet again.
  21. @The Shyest One Heh, we may meet at the event.
  22. @Rarity Does this mean in the literal sense in that the voice actor that plays you is in command? Might seem a basic question, however we humans are the one's in charge, unless Discord around somewhere. *Scopes area for Discord* Does not spot him. *Phew*. If true, I think I'll hide and shiver. I'm not one for actual limelight attention and I know in time, this post will be forgotten.
  23. Nearly 30 plus, I will be in a few months, and no gf yet.
  24. @RarityMLP2017 Didn't say that, and it unwise to jump the gun to conclusions. All, I said it needs to steal my attention and I've given it every chance to do so. I have purposefully robbed myself of watching any trailers, so it has the best chance to awe me and wow me because it will be something I have never seen before.
