Rapid Wind

@Mysterious Way, @Kulstor, @Cosmic Breeze, @Trixie ., @ThunderCrush Raven found the gesture of the Pegasus coming back to ask the group was kind, when she could had chosen to led the mysterious unicorn around. Still, she recalled spying the unicorn's blood red triangle, but it was plain rude to refuse a invite to come with a pony and she thought she would need a local to show her around anyway. "I'll come with," Raven said, hoping she would see more of Ponyville on their journey as the Pegasus would show them around.

Raven Mystery rode the train to Ponyville, it was a comfortable enough ride and she awed as she saw the train whoosh past the green, healthy, tall and proud trees. The effect of nature having a great effect on her as she was used to the sandy, dusty frontier town of Appaloosa, but with all the rumours and speculation going around that Ponyville was a friendly and welcoming town and very vibrant and active, she had chosen to leave behind the town where a tumbleweed could roll through the centre of town at midday and no pony cared. Then, Steamer slammed the brakes on, fearing he might overshoot the station platform and it jolted Raven from her seat. Raven banged her small muzzle on the seat ahead and was landed hard on her belly. Then, the train grinded to a halt and Raven sniffled in pain a little, but didn't think any other passenger cared, got up slowly, retrieved her saddlebags and left the train to trot onto Ponyville station. She thought about going to have words with Steamer as her rump still pained and her sniffles hadn't stopped and as she came from a town that held traditional country values, she did not want to seen as weak, but she hadn't come to Ponyville for an argument and birds chirping in the clear blue skies distracted her from her anguish.

@Trixie ., @Mysterious Way, @Kulstor, @Cosmic Breeze, @ThunderCrush "Wait? She knows Pinkie?" Raven pondered as she heard Ocean offer the mysterious unicorn to go to Pinkie's place, but when she noticed the Pegasus flip her hair, she got just a tiny bit jealous that the Pegasus might be trying to flirt with the unicorn and stroked back her dark cobalt blue mane with a huff. Then, she noticed Dr. Whooves and he had a curious look on his face. She recalled Braeburn had said Dr. Whooves was a Ponyville resident. It seemed insignificant because if the Pegasus really did know Pinkie, then she must be a Ponyville resident too, but she had already picked a pony to lead around the town. Still, she wasn't sure how to make the approach at first, but she was thinking she had to make one before the other two unicorns at the station did, just in case Dr. Whooves wasn't the type of pony who would happily lead around a group of ponies rather than one at a time.

PC and internet. Walking to and for work isn't so much a hassle when I live within about 10 to 15 minutes walk away. I'll only ever call a cab, if taking a lot of shopping home and it would be impractical to carry the shopping all the way home.

@Trixie . Raven was quietly impressed by his glide especially when she saw there was no wings. She judged maybe the pony was talented at levitation magic that would allow him to glide slowly as his horn would slowly lose power or perhaps it was a clever illusionist trick. Still, upon seeing there was a blood red triangle on his chest, Raven took a step back and thought about galloping away to safety.

@ThunderCrush, @Cosmic Breeze Raven Mystery heard a pony shout, "Quick, look up there!" She grew concerned that maybe it was an out of control Pegasus or something that should draw her attention. She exchanged a look up toward the train platform roof and saw a dark figure. Raven could see the dark figure wearing black armour. One of Luna's guards? She quivered and hoped that to be true rather than this pony could be a rogue. Still, she decided to see if this pony would become a threat as she thought if she charged her horn up too soon, then she could provide the dark figure with a reason to fight her and she didn't want to do anything with too much haste.

@@Cosmic Breeze, Since Raven had not been stopped in her tracks, she paced rather slowly off the station to get a better look at the surrounding trees and the natural flower meadows of the Everfree Forest. If whole truth be told, Raven wanted to be distracted by natural beauty instead of a rolling tumbleweed making it's way through town. Once, the train started to chug away from the station, Raven found herself hoping once it was gone and out of the way, she would get a pretty decent view. A bit of a nagging voice told her it was a mere matter of time before she would encounter a Ponyville citizen or perhaps another pony who got off the same train she did, still she was ignoring the nag as she noticed the sky she could see just looked a little fresher and crisper than a sky invaded by radiating heat.

Raven Mystery also happened to be on the train, but in a different carriage as she had rode from Appaloosa to see Ponyville for herself. Despite a lot of praise, gossip and rumours saying the place was welcoming to strangers, Raven was a bit hestitant to put that to the test as she reluctantly trotted out onto the platform. Still, the refreshing breezes and the sun felt welcoming rather than sweltering hot like it did in Appaloosa on occasion. "So, this is Ponyville," Raven muttered to herself and then waited for the train to leave so she could spy upon the nearby Everfree Forest and see green and healthy trees instead of hot desert sands and cacti.

Hi. I'm coming to this BABScon. I hope to meet and greet other bronies and pegasisters. That didn't really happen much in the BUCK convention in the U.K. Let's see what happens when I step a hoof into this San Francisco convention.

Hmm, didn't know this was an international problem. Well, I'm enlightened by this knowledge now. Sorry, if that's also a bit unrelevant to this topic.

Aww. Nuts. I got an OC pic done by a Deviant artist friend of mine too.

I couldn't agree more. I still feel connected to MLP & EG. I've got all EG films. Yes, I'm a bit of a collector of plush and I have one Vinyl Funko collectible of Princess Luna. Being a brony this long has made me feel awkward at times, but I flick on the movies at times or an episode and I'm reminded why I'm still a brony.
