  1. @Props Valroa @CocoCody “Hey the rest of our friends are going to be here in a bit. You should come in. I made macarons and fruit tea!” Minuette offered, gesturing to the other two unicorns as Twilight stepped inside. Twilight would make her way to the living room and make herself comfortable on one of the couches. Minuette would briefly step away to come back with a tray of macarons and a teapot. She would set them both on the coffee table and gesture to the other two unicorns to take a seat on the couch across from Twilight before sitting down next to Twilight. She would serve both Twilight and herself a cup of tea and some macarons as she cuddled Twilight. “Yeah, we used to be friends in university. By which I mean Twilight preferred to work by herself, but if she had to work with somepony else, she would pick me and my friends! However, the day before a Summer Sun Celebration, she ran off. We assumed that she had just moved on, but then one day, just out of the blue, she just showed up and asked to be friends again! We’ve been working on magic together ever since!” Minuette exclaimed. “Ok while I wasn’t the greatest friend in my university days, I’d left because my mentor Princess Celestia assigned me to check on the Summer Sun Celebration in Ponyville. However, that just goes to show that it’s never too late to reconnect with old friends. And just because a friend moves away doesn’t mean your friendship has to end,” Twilight explained to Starlight. “Even though I definitely should have wrote to you after moving to Ponyville,” Twilight said to Minuette. ”It’s ok, I forgive you,” Minuette replied. She smiled as she leaned over and rested her head against Twilight. “So what brings you two here?” Minuette asked Starlight and Magnolia. “Twilight, I thought you were past hiding things from your friends,” Minuette lightly teased. “I only found out half an hour ago!” Twilight defended. Minuette started giggling, which caused Twilight to giggle too. “So Moonlight, if you don’t mind me using that name and asking about your history, what happened?” Minuette asked.
  2. I'm waiting for a reply from @Victoria Everglade saying that the group is in Manehatten.
  3. @Props Valroa @CocoCody Twilight thought for a moment. "Well have you considered writing a letter to this friend? It doesn't sound like there were any hard feelings between you two, so I would assume that he misses you too. And if you can't contact him, well try again! Make new friends! And if something that you can't control happens that changes things, work through it together. Because that's what friendship is!" Twilight explained. Twilight didn't really have anything to say to Magnolia, so she led the group towards her friend's house. Soon enough, they arrived at a pretty nice-looking house with several hourglasses for decoration. Twilight trotted up to the front door and knocked on it. "She's here!" somepony inside the house would respond, and after a few moments, the door flew open. Standing by the door was a bright blue unicorn with a mane and tail that was split between a lighter and darker shade of blue. She would immediately hug Twilight. "I'm so excited to be working on this magical mystery together! We got all of our old university friends together! Even Lyra Heartstrings! It's going to be just like our university days! Researching magic together!" Minuette exclaimed. "Speaking of friends, it looks like you brought some new ones. They don't look like your friends from Ponyville..." Minuette turned her attention to Magnolia and Starlight. "What brings you here? I'm Minuette, by the way. What are your names?" "Yup, this is Minuette. She's one of my university friends," Twilight introduced.
  4. @Illiad Easle "Ooh, that sounds interesting! But what do you mean by central village?" Speckle asked. "I'm confused by all these colonies and villages and everything... Like, what's the difference? How do they work?" "Yeah, these cloud beds are interesting. I can see why some bat ponies would like them. And I guess that's why there are signs about different temperature cloud beds. I didn't even know they made cloud beds with different temperatures! Anyways, let's get going," Speckle remarked as she got up from the bed and headed out of the store. "See ya," the employee said as the pair left the store. "Oh, right, sunglasses!" Speckle remarked. She would make a sudden turn back towards her apartment. Once the pair got their sunglasses, Speckle would lead the way out of the local neighborhood and towards the rest of Canterlot. Soon enough, the pair would find themselves back at the large plaza in front of the train station. "So I don't really know the rest of Canterlot well enough to explain it on a tour, so my parents suggested we join a tour of Canterlot, and maybe I can learn a bit more about the parts of it outside of the Thestral Market!" Speckle exclaimed. By now, there was a sufficient bustle of activity in the streets, but Speckle had no trouble finding the tour guide she was looking for. "Oh hey there, are you here for the... ...uhh the tour of Canterlot?" The pink pegasus mare tour guide hesitated as she glanced at the young pair that approached her. The pony seemed to realize their mistake by hesitating "I'm Sugar Drop, and I'm the tour guide!" she blurted out, trying to fix her mistake. She adjusted her blonde mane nervously.
  5. @CocoCody @Props Valroa "Uuh, wha...?" Twilight stammered. "Are you ok? Do you need to get help? And what kinds of issues are you talking about here?" Twilight led the other two toward the Canterlot Census Records office. Once they arrived, Twilight requested to see information about her family. Not long afterward, a unicorn came out from the back and led Twilight to his office to talk privately. Soon after that, Twilight came back out to the rest of the group. "Well, that confirms it: we're related. However, it does raise questions that only our parents can answer," Twilight explained to Magnolia.
  6. @Samurai Equine @Victoria Everglade @Props Valroa "Oh that would actually be right after I finish an assignment for the Cloudsdale Weather Factory in Manehatten. Something involving the Manehatten Weather Team... Anyways, I suppose I'll meet up with the rest of you in Manehatten? You got my number, right? Just message me when the rest of you are there," Swift Wings explained as they confirmed their schedule on their phone. They would pay for their boba tea on their phone before grabbing it and getting up to go.
  7. @CocoCody @Props Valroa Twilight was taken aback by Starlight's emotional breakdown. She didn't expect Starlight to react like that to her questioning. Twilight struggled to figure out what Starlight was trying to say between her sobs. Instead, she decided to let Starlight express and process her emotions. Instead, Twilight turned her attention to her cutie mark. She wasn't one to flaunt her cutie mark, but she was still quite proud of it. She was extraordinarily powerful in magic, and that was crucial to who she was. In fact, she believed that it was that magical spark that led her to find the connection between magic and friendship. Without her magic, who would she be? The idea of losing her magic frightened her, and with Starlight's unpredictable reaction to her questioning, she couldn't trust Starlight to leave her magic alone. Plus, part of her wondered if asking for a spell on removing cutie marks was some kind of trick. Twilight's horn briefly glowed as she cast a spell frequently used in magic kindergarten on herself. While it was meant to protect unicorns from other young unicorns learning to control their magic, Twilight figured it could also work on somepony intentionally trying to take away her cutie mark or magical abilities. "Hmm," Twilight would think out loud. "Well I have two groups of friends I could introduce you to. There are the element bearers in Ponyville, and then there are my university friends here in Canterlot. My parents also live here in Canterlot, so we could go see them too. And the thing is, I actually was going to meet my university friends before you ran into me," Twilight explained. "I suppose after getting this verified, I could bring you along to my meet up with them and introduce you?" Twilight would then turn her attention to Starlight. "Hey, are you ok there? Is there any way I could help you?" If the other two didn't have any objections, Twilight would head over to the Canterlot Cencus Records to get the information verified. She would encourage the other two to follow along.
  8. @Props Valroa Rarity would laugh nervously before using her magic to flip them right side up. Skylight would glance at Lazulia up and down before replying, "I think it looks nice on you," "It's simple. We do some warm-ups for our voices, and then we sing some songs! I have sheets so you can follow along," Sweetie Belle explained as she led the group into her music room. After warming up their voices with some voice exercises, the group would sing The Smile Song, Raise This Barn, and Hearts as Strong as Horses.
  9. @Illiad Easle "Oh no, I haven't actually met Pinkie Pie. This is just what I heard about her. Like, the Elements of Harmony are always sharing stories of what they did or what they plan on doing, and that is where I heard that Pinkie Pie is going to throw a party here in Thestral Market!" Speckle explained. "Plus, the Mane Six go to all of these interesting and unusual places all the time! Maybe someday, they'll go to where you live!" "Maybe? Hmm, I mean, Canterlot is pretty high up... Although Canterlot has also been around for longer than trains have been around... I don't know, this is confusing," Speckle replied, not quite sure what to make of the whole thing. "You don't have stories? Or are they like a different kind of story? If so, what are they like? What do you mean by historical accounts?" Speckle seemed curious about what Nova meant by that. "Yeah there's no way we could have everyone here sit together. The table would have to be huge!" Speckle gestured her forelegs to emphasize the size. "Please, feel free to try our beds," the employee offered before turning their attention back to the papers in front of them. "Yeah, try this bed with me. It's so different than the beds I normally sleep on!" Speckle exclaimed as quietly as she could. By now, she had gone to try another bed, and she gestured Nova to try the bed with her. "Hey, do you think this is what hammocks are like?" Once the pair had a few minutes to try the various beds in the store, Speckle would ask Nova, "Hey, it's almost sunrise. Is there anything you want to do here in Thestral Market before we head out towards the rest of Canterlot?"
  10. @Samurai Equine @Victoria Everglade @Props Valroa "Ooh, Manehatten, it's such an interesting city. I wonder what is going on with Coco Pommel and the Carousel Boutique..." Swift Wings would reply as they sipped their boba tea. They didn't really have much else to add.
  11. @Props Valroa @CocoCody Originally, Twilight glanced at Starlight suspiciously, but now she glanced at Starlight with significant concern. "Uuh, are you having some kind of trouble with your special talent or something? Do you hate your cutie mark? Is it giving you an identity crisis? Or are you jealous of somepony else's cutie marks? Removing a pony's cutie mark causes a lot of problems if they don't have an existing problem with their cutie mark. In addition, this sounds like the symptom of another problem that needs to be addressed." She keeps saying *we* a lot. Is there a whole community of ponies that are all struggling with their special talent? If so, what is the cause of this? Whatever issue that could cause this many ponies to have issues with their cutie marks would be very important to address. If not, would that mean she is immorally trying to remove cutie marks from ponies that are content with their special talent? That is extraordinarily illegal! Or maybe she's trying to convince other ponies to give up their cutie mark? But why would she do such a thing? Either way, this sounds like an illegal cult. Hopefully, this is just a misunderstanding, and she doesn't actually want to go around stripping ponies of their special talent. If not, I need to figure out a way to prevent her from taking away any more special talents... Twilight would thoroughly read over the papers that Magnolia showed her. " Hmm, well I would have to compare this to other official records just to make sure, but I'll assume that this is accurate for now. If we are related, what are we supposed to do? Like, what do you want to do here?" Twilight asked Magnolia. She had never expected a situation like this to arise, and now, she was trying to figure out what she's supposed to do here. Part of her was suspicious of Magnolia given how unusual everything has been. The other part of her knew that if Magnolia actually was related to her, it would be important to start things off on the right hoof. Hmm, this whole situation is so bizarre. I don't know what to find more shocking, that a potential cult leader is trying to ask me to help them find a spell to commit numerous crimes, or that I have a long lost sibling that my parents never told me about. What am I supposed to do if I run into a long lost sibling? Would she even want to see my parents? Do I introduce her to my friends? If so, how? And then where do we go from there? Gosh, I wish Shining Armor was here to help me out right now...
  12. Noticing Trilby ordering a boba tea, Swift Wings would do the same. Once the rest of the group had arrived, they would introduce themselves again. "Hello Collapse. Hi there Trilby. Also a boba tea fan I see?" Swift Wings joked. "Ooh, adventure awaits! Where are we going? What will we be doing?" Swift Wings would ask as they sipped their tiger milk boba tea.
  13. @Props Valroa @CocoCody Twilight Sparkle sighed again. While this meet-up with her friends in Canterlot wasn't scheduled, she wanted to get started on this magical mystery as soon as possible. It really annoyed her when other ponies messed up her schedule like this. However, there wasn't much she could do, so with another sigh, she replied. "Alright, let's talk this over in a room at the library," With her books securely in her saddlebags, she turned around and headed back into the library. Once they found a room where the three unicorns could talk privately, Twilight began to reflect on what the other ponies said. "Hi Starlight. ...A book of spells to remove marks or symbols? I mean, you don't normally use magical spells to remove marks. Just what are you trying to remove from what exactly? Because I get the impression you're trying to remove something very specific here." Twilight asked. Symbols? What is that supposed to mean? And why would this unicorn be interested in removing symbols? This Starlight pony is definitely up to something. But what? And why? "Hi Magnolia, What is this important matter that you think needs to be discussed?" Twilight asked. And then there's Magnolia here. She's been so mysterious this whole time. She claims to know so much about me, yet she reveals so little when I ask her about herself. However, she did say she was looking for me. What is she hiding? Are these two ponies together? They definitely don't act like they're together. However, it is quite bizarre how they both happened to run into me at the same time. And if they are together, what are they trying to accomplish by asking me seemingly different questions and trying to act so different from each other? How can I trust these two ponies? Twilight thought as she sat at the table, glancing at the two ponies seated across from her.
  14. Hey @AuroraGlimmer do we know what the invitation specifically says? Because I assumed that the invitation was predominantly about investigating supernatural activities, but it also sounds like she's trying to form a band simultaneously. I don't know, I'm a bit confused about what is going on currently.
  15. Swift Wings glanced down at their SmartPone 15 before glancing up at the cafe, confirming that this was the location they were given. Once confirmed, they landed and entered the cafe, pulling up the invitation on their phone in the process. They would take a quick glance around the cafe and trot over once they spotted the pony they were looking for. "Hi there, Evelyn Noir, right? I'm Swift Wings," Swift Wings introduced themselves as they took a seat.
  16. @CocoCody @Props Valroa Twilight glanced at herself before glancing back towards this other purple pony, a little confused. "Uuh, I mean, I guess? But I don't know who either of you are!" Twilight exclaimed, glancing at the two other ponies in the group. She sighed. "I guess it's just creepy to run into two ponies that claim to know me that I know nothing about. Since I clearly know nothing about you two, maybe you two could tell me your names, and what it is that you want from me? Like, maybe a specific book title?" Twilight asked.
  17. I do have some questions for this RP. For one, when you say modern technology, this includes all the latest technology, right? Because I intend on having my character use the pony version of an iPhone 15. Second, does the Mane Six exist in this RP? Because I intend to have my character refer to them in passing as ponies they loosely know.
  18. Hmm, this sounds like an interesting concept. Which characters would players be role playing as? And how will players roleplay them? Would you be roleplaying all the other characters that the players aren’t roleplaying? Is it possible to roleplay Princess Twilight? If so, I would like to roleplay her.
  19. @CocoCody @Props Valroa “Ooff!” Twilight exclaimed as she felt the wind get knocked out of her as yet another pony tripped onto the pony pile. Once she had a chance to stabilize herself, she crawled out from under the pony pile and picked up the books she had dropped, putting them in her saddlebags. “You two recognize me?” Twilight asked, giving the pair a surprised look. “Well, I mean, I suppose I am kind of well known. How do you two know me? And can I help you two in some way?” Twilight asked as she massaged and comforted her soft fur with her magic.
  20. I assume since you’re part of forum staff you could?
  21. Yeah I can change that. Also, I assume Magnolia recognizes Twilight Sparkle after tripping over her?
  22. Ok then. I suppose the only question I have left is how would Magnolia join the RP. Would she also trip over the pile of ponies that is now in front of the Canterlot Library? Other than that, unless @CocoCody has some questions, comments, or remarks, then I suppose Magnolia could join the RP.
  23. @CocoCody I suppose it could work. What would Magnolia plan on doing by running into Twilight and Starlight? And would there be any information about Magnolia's relation to Twilight that could contradict my ideas about Twilight? So far, the notable things said in the RP are that Celestia's School for Gifted Unicorns is a university, and Twilight (who is still a unicorn currently) is meeting up with the rest of the Canterlot Six, who she considers her friends. I assume that Twilight would have no idea who Starlight or Magnolia are. I also assume that she's close friends with her parents (Twilight Velvet and Night Light), Shining Armor, all the current princesses, the Canterlot Six, and the Six Elements, who all love her back. Finally, I assume that Canterlot is an extraordinarily extravagant city well-known for powerful unicorns that do research in magic. Oh, and I assume that Twilight Sparkle is extraordinarily powerful in terms of her magical abilities. Let me know if any of the information I mentioned contradicts what either of you assume, and we can try to figure something out.
  24. This is the OOC the thread for this RP: https://mlpforums.com/topic/201913-new-beginnings-1x1-rp-with-cococody/#comment-6200837
