Pastel Heart

@Samurai Equine Pastel clapped, wonder in her eyes as she watched Samurai move. Just like that the arcade was a dance club. Definitely had a homey touch to this place. The performance suited his personality to a T. Now she couldn't wait to get up there herself~ @ExplosionMare @Astral Vision @Dynamo Pad Pastel shook out of her stupor. Looks like she and Dynamo were next! But, first... Pastel ran over to Pencil real quick and gave her leg a hug. She felt bad about getting lost in the moment earlier and wandering off after the first game. She was self aware sometimes... Only sometimes. "I'll play you more as soon as I'm done here, okay? I've been summoned~ don't think you'll get the best of me though, hehe." Pastel winked at Pencil, posing as if she were some idol before running back to Dynamo, this time she taking his hoof. Someone got bold... well, more than usual. "Hehehe, shall we~?"

In Their Eyes - Magic Dance

That Paradigm Shift was very Dirty Deeds Wednesday night. Guess Hager wasn't gonna take the bump with the chair. Oh well, woulda been awesome if that happened~ I definitely think Lance Archer is gonna get the TNT Title too. His stuff with Jake is golden. ...just trying to think about something else in these times

@Astral Vision "Hmm... A dragon, huh? A crusty old mayor sounds kinda boring but a dragon sounds cool!" Simple minded as always, Pastel filtered that into "dragon good" in her head. Easily fascinated. @Dynamo Pad @Samurai Equine Pastel giggled happily. She was very excited and happy about being able to dance by Dynamo's side. This was like those night clubs that she's never allowed to go into... what does grandpa do in there anyway? at Samurai's request, Pastel put her hoof to her chin as if pondering. It doesn't seem she was thinking about anything in particular and just really wanted to do that. "Sure! Go ahead, Sami! You can be our opening act~!"

Oh. Now I'm the one whos confused haha... you could probably get away with just reading a brief summary of the games though. Not like arcade games are hugely spoilery so yeah~ Imma wait for Astrals next post cos I feel like i got super carried away. Going all over the place cos I was excited.

@ExplosionMare I figured you didn't which is why I didn't wanna drag it out, nyaha~ sorry. it's a fighting game. Gorefest. Very griddy and not fitting in a world of pastel pink ponies xD no pun intended.

Perfect~ I'm so so glad I joined this RP cos this is all so fun and I've got so many possible scenarios to look forward to!

@Dynamo Pad To be blunt, Pastel is crushing on him right now, so the shiptease is well spotted ;P even if nothing comes out of it, it's fun for me to write~ She wrote about Dynamo to her grandpa too. When he arrives, it'll be a huge mess. I can't wait

@Dynamo Pad I'm alright with anything! Butterfly was always my go to song which is why Pastel mentioned it but she can work with anything~ Maybe wait a bit for the others to post so we don't flood the page though x3 I got a bit carried away because I love those twos chemistry so much

@Dynamo Pad If Pastel were a block of ice she would have melted to the floor. She blushed and smiled widely, barely able to contain her giddyness as Dynamo kissed her hoof; she really did feel like a heroine now! She skipped to his side, all ready to dance the night away. Hopefully the other ponies got a kick out of this too! "I'm gonna set this club on fire and steal your heart, Dyny~ nyahaha~" Pastel had a spark in her eye and a pep in her step. She radiated a different energy, just like when she sang at the concert.

@Blitz Boom @Widdershins Pastel was taken aback when Cloud would re-emerge from her saddlebag. "Oops! Sorry, friendie! That was a rough trip huh?" She opened the saddlebag all the way and smiled awkwardly. She felt bad, but didn't really know what else to do in the situation. She was getting too used to having friends... What an odd feeling though. She squinted one of her eyes and rubbed his feather gently with her hoof. She didn't think it alarming; Maybe he was just a different breed or that's how he is? "Huh... Mushrooms? I dunno if you understand me or not... But these aren't dangerous I'd think?" Her concern for the owl would soon get drowned out in noise as Slimpsy went on and on, Pastels eyes widened. Woah, was he okay? Seemed panicky, like, more than any other pony she'd seen... She was kinda getting unnerved and had half a mind to smack him, grab his head and scream everything was okay... But, looks like Jelly had this. She was a lot more sensitive in these situations where Pastel would just act on impulse... She stepped forward, letting Cloud do what he wants assuming he stays. "Yeah! What she said! You were, like, really cool and stuff! And you ran like the wind like a superhero! Just, uh, chill and stuff? Maybe if you came with us we could help!"

@Dynamo Pad Pastel happily trotted up to Dynamo, eager for attention, which she definitely got. She was practically purring as she smiled and swayed her tail as her already messy mane was ruffled. "Nyaha~ Pencil was great for a first timer too!! I bet she'll be a wiz like us in no time! I never really looked at that ratings stuff though... As long as I'm not getting in trouble, grandpa lets me do what I want!" This pony must be quite the enigma, whoever he is... Pastel felt like the belle of the ball as Dynamo extended his hoof to her. Wasnt this like that one story!? Except it's a TTR machine. wowzer. She giggled and blushed bashfully like a Disney princess before taking Dynamo's hoof in hers. Last time she acted this way was the concert. "I am quite a fan of the butterfly song, but... I would be grateful for any dance I share with you~" Where did the ballroom manners and Cinderella act come from? It's TTR, not the Grand Galloping Gala.

Left alone again, Dr. Milenko finished off his coffee and relaxed in his seat. He smiled and took off his glasses, closing his eyes. "I think that went well... That Astral is an interesting unicorn. I'm sure he'll come around soon; they all do eventually." He looked up at the ceiling, smiling pleasantly, as if hope glimmered in his. "...Dreams deserve to be realized. I'm certain his will... soon, perhaps mine can too..." @ExplosionMare @Dynamo Pad @Astral Vision As the fight started, it was clear Pastel was rusty. If Pencil button mashed, she could put up a fight... that is, until she let herself get distracted by Astrals appearance and dragon talk, a focused Pastel, slowly getting her groove back would take over and take the match. This was followed by... a rather gruesome victory. Too violent to describe on this board. Blood red FATALITY was painted on the screen. Pastel seemed happy, unphased by the games gruesome nature. "Phew! That was a RUSH!! Now, what's this about a dragon!? Can I meet him too!? Can he play games with us too? If we're doing TTR soon I bet a dragon dance would be AWESOME!" She turned on a dime quickly, but only after completely taking the match... If only she applied that kind of focus to everything else.

Modern Love - Kristine

This was a few years ago, when I was even dumber than I am now I'm bouncing around the arcade, as per usual, spending my moms quarters on all the games I like, and suddenly I hear this deep, gravely voice in a deep southern accent behind me... "Hey there little girl, what game are you gonna play?" It was this this big trucker dude who was twice, maybe even three times my age (who knows). I thought he was being nice because he was giving me money and saying he'd hold me up so I could reach the arcade machines better, and then saying he had more quarters in his car... That's when my mom stormed up like a spitfire and gave him, to this day, the most murderous look I've EVER seen xD needless to stay he didn't stick around~ then I got a lecture about being careful who I talk to, understandably.

I think and dream of retrofuture beyond the stars, far away from this world ♡ Like, Star Wars and Mass Effect, but real

Physically, like a mummy. ~__~ Mentally, okay for now~

Dude what? way to kick these guys when they're down during a crisis. I'm 100% done with WWE. Hope they'll be okay under quarantine. Also good job bribing the governer to stay open when smaller, more vulnerable family businesses have had to shut down for less over this virus too. As if the Saudi deals weren't sleazy enough. I love the wrestlers but I can't support that promotion anymore. First the crappy response to the Benoit Family tragedy, going PG, gross misuse of talent, sweeping Chyna under the rug for her reputation but ironically honoring Jimmy Snuka and Carlos Colon, kissing up to the Saudis (and promoting them) and now bribery and leaving employees out in the dust during a pandemic to save a buck? I'm done. Sorry for rambling but, ughh I can't believe this is the same company I grew up with. At the least, if and when the crisis blows over they'll be in a better spot to work elsewhere with more freedom. Lio Rush will definitely be a hot item.

Just another day in the life of jimmy nutrin

Blueberry muffinses I like~ ~w~

I would also be a great hobbit I be cute, smol, drink you under the table, steal your wallet and your girl~

Uptown Girl - Billy Joel

Applebloom! Yay! I feel like she's more responsible than I am. I'll be the one taken care of owo;

@Astral Vision Dr. Milenko closed his eyes and nodded, smiling as he listened to Astrals plight. He saw some of himself in him; it is true, the princesses can only do so much, especially in a hidden place like this... He waited for Astral to finish before leaning forward. "You have a very interesting thought process, Astral. Indeed, you remind me of myself... Perhaps our goals are similar; we both want the ponies of this town, and every creature everywhere to be happy and free of strife. A large part of that is why I left the homelands, and worked in Ponyville before coming here. It's funny you mention Princess Twilight; I was a counselor at her friendship school for a time. Alas, I wanted to take my profession to serve something larger and greater... We have similar convictions." He smiled and relaxed in his seat, feeling a sense of solidarity. This was good. Seeing eye to eye with a patient was important to him. "Trust me, though, my friend, if there were dark magic at work here, would the residents here be so happy and harmonious? I understand your worry, but I think this may just be anxiety. You're in a new place, after all... You said you've had fun, yes? Perhaps you should try to relax more. I can promise, that soon this place will become as much of a home to you as it is now to me in time... After all, happiness, fulfilling dreams, these are the most important things to living a fulfilling existence in this short life... these feelings you have are valid, and I'm sure with time and help from your friends, you will come to terms with them. If you do find anything related to some dark magic surrounding this town, please do come to me. If there is danger surrounding this town of hopes and dreams, I will help in any way I can." Milenko extended his claw, assumably to shake Astrals hoof as a sign of their mutual understanding. @Dynamo Pad "Huh? I played that! I meant, uhh, the other one!" Seemed like Pastel was only paying half attention. Simple minded to the end. She did have memories of playing TTR, but more often than not, it was her alone on stage... Though, something about that feeling gave her a tingle in her stomach. @ExplosionMare Pastel reached over to hit the 2 Player button. Since it was being tested, free play should be in effect. The actual game itself had a menacing aura about it, but Pastel seemed right at home. She knew exactly what character she was going for too; a pony with a pink face mask. Definitely nothing strange under that mask. Probably. There were several others with varying appearances. If Pencil waited too long the game will pick a character for her. Arcade games had low patience.
