Skylight Scintillate

"Well, um, a little... But being the leader of this hive has kept me quite busy, you know," Thorax admitted. "However, there are plenty of other changelings here who would be willing to dance with you, I'm sure," Thorax gestured. One of the changelings walking by took note and immediately swung over to Shiny. "So, I heard you're looking for a partner for swing dancing. Do you want to be mine?" The changeling seemed to flirt with Shiny. "Wait, is that DJ Pon-3?!" Skylight pointed out. "Oh, hey. I'm just a changeling that looks like her. You know that the changeling hive does other dance music as well, right? I do dance pop," The changeling that looked like DJ Pon-3 explained.

"Well, you have two great potential partners standing right next to you," Thorax suggested with a wink and a nudge. "Oh, I don't know anything about swing dancing," Skylight replied. "Me neither," Twilight agreed. "Well, there are plenty of other kinds of dancing or other activities as well," Thorax replied. "We hadn't really had these kinds of activities before. Due to this, we kind of let everyling try whatever they want to discover what they like," Thorax replied.

@Illiad Easle "Oh, right," Speckle replied when Indigo reminded her of her previous clan. "Yeah maybe we could ask my parents," Speckle shrugged. "U-um, maybe? He didn't say that, but maybe it's because of that? I'm not really sure..." Speckle stammered. "Though maybe it's just the instructor. I hadn't really had a chance to talk to the other thestrals much..." Speckle thought out loud. "Wait, what? I'm confused. What's going on? The central colony is different?" Speckle asked, her confusion matching that of Nova's. "What's going on in the central colony?"

Thorax seemed pleased that Shiny liked her experience at the feelings forum. "Well, I'm glad you liked it. I think that talking through our disagreements has been a great way to bring the hive together," Thorax nodded. "Well we have all kinds of entertainment here at the hive. From musical theatre to swing dancing and more, there's something for everyling the enjoy. Anyling can choose to do whatever they want," Thorax replied. "Is there something specific that you're interested in?"

Like the others, Skylight and Twilight had paused their departure when the outburst. "Wha-" Skylight asked, giving Shiny a confused look to her reply. "Oh, yeah, let's go," Twilight replied, reacting quicker than Skylight as she led the way out of the feelings forum. Skylight recovered quickly after that, and she followed behind the other two as they left. The three ponies quickly made their way out into the corridor outside, and soon afterwards, Thorax joined them. "Sorry, I was just sorting some stuff out there after the discussion ended. Anyways, what did you all think?" Thorax asked cautiously. "Well, it's nice experiencing what the feelings forum is like, even if it could have gone a bit more smoothly," Twilight replied. Skylight nodded in agreement. The others would give Shiny a chance to reply with her experiences before moving on to another subject. Once Shiny had a chance to reply, Thorax would ask, "So, what should we all do now?"

The changelings turned to each other to think about the suggestion some more. "I suppose that makes the most sense. We'll definitely have to negotiate to figure out which parts should be rebuilt like what," a changeling replied. The other changelings around him nodded in agreement. "Ok if that is all, I think the feelings forum is done for tod-" The forums facilitator started to say before she was interrupted. "Waait! I want to go back to the part where Shiny talked about making a pizza. I think we should make a pizza! And we should put pineapple on it!" A changeling exclaimed. The other changelings, who were getting up to leave, all paused to turn and stare at the outburst.

The changelings turned to each other to think over what Shiny suggested. After quietly murmuring to each other for a few moments, a changeling turned to ask Shiny, "Ok, so if we don't like anything about how the way the old hive looked, we should just rebuild it the way we like?" Some of the other changelings looked annoyed by this suggestion, but they stayed quiet to give Shiny a chance to respond.

The other changelings would pause their discussion, turning their attention to Shiny. "Sure, what are you thinking about?" the forum facilitator asked.

@Illiad Easle "Oh, oh yeah. I suppose that makes sense," Speckle replied. She realized half way through that the thestrals she was staying with probably didn't use dyes much based on what she expierenced so far. "It sounds like you miss things from your previous clan?" Speckle asked. "Can you visit them? Can we visit them maybe?" Speckle thought for a moment about how to describe what she expierenced. "Well there was this hunting instructor that put a lot of pressure on me, and I felt like he was judging me for being from Canterlot," Speckle replied. "I'm not really sure how to put that feeling into words..." Speckle explained.

Ok, for setting, where do you want your roleplay to take place? Do you want it to take place in Ponyville? Canterlot? Some other location? For character, what do you want the character you are roleplaying to be like? Think about their appearance and personality, and then describe them here. For example, I roleplay a character named Swift Wings. They are a non-binary pegasus in the Wonderbolts. Personality-wise, they are kind and are always willing to help others in need. They have white fur and a red and blue mane and tail. More details are always helpful, but you can start simple, like what I just wrote. This description should give both you and other roleplayers an idea of what your character is like. Now you try. Say the setting that you want your roleplay to be in, and describe the character you want to roleplay.

Ok, let me see if I'm understanding what you two are saying here. Are you asking me to explain to him how Roleplay World works? Or is he looking for help with starting a 1 on 1 SoL roleplay?

Hello there, Iridescent. What help are you looking for? Do you have an idea of the character and setting you want to RP?

Sure, I can try to help. Is there something specific that you're looking for, Iridescent?

Hello everyone, Silky invited me here. I'd love to discuss RP ideas with you all.

@Illiad Easle Speckle glanced at Nova curiously when he replied. "Spartrot? Huh, I have never heard of that place before. I suppose I'll have to ask him about it..." "Ooh, that's interesting," Speckle replied. "Using dyes for food and clothes makes sense. Do thestrals also use these dyes? If so, do they also use these dyes for food and clothes?" Seckle asked. "Well, uum, sometimes, some of the thestrals here aren't so nice to me sometimes. They also aren't nice to Nova sometimes either. Wait... How can you tell this?" Speckle was surprised that this zebra was able to pick up her feelings. Was this zebra a changeling? Speckle glanced at the zebra a little skeptically.

Hmm, while I prefer most characters I roleplay to be completely pony (or whichever their original species is), there is one character I am interested in playing where she would be kind of anthro. I have a bunch of ideas for characters I would be interested in playing, and I haven’t decided which one yet. Yeah that makes sense. I suppose what causes the character to appear on Earth would depend on what character I roleplay. I have some ideas though. While I prefer a more normal setting, there are also some characters I think it could be interesting to do a more futuristic/apocalyptic setting in as well. I have several different ideas. Oh my gosh, I love cutesy stuff!

Hmm, maybe if you want to develop Bubbling's backstory, you could talk more about what he does with monsters and other creatures? Maybe you could mention if there is something specific that he wants to learn about them? Let me know if this is what you mean by build him more BTW.

Hmm, well um, maybe I could look over your backstory and ask questions about it? And then we could discuss ways to fill it in together? So looking over your backstory, you mentioned that he was born in Manehattan but then moved to Canterlot as a foal. Is there a specific reason why this happened? Is it based on what you experienced as a child? It seems like Bubbling Shine discovering the creature during his childhood is an important part of his backstory. Can he communicate with this creature? Are they still friends? What happened to this creature? BTW, if you want to roleplay, I'm always up for that as well. I love roleplaying!

I think your character is quite nice. What parts of him do you want to develop? For me, I usually develop my characters by roleplaying them with friends. I find it helpful to figure out what they should be like when I write them out in a roleplay.

Hmm, I would be interested in this. I’ve read some interesting fimfictions about humans in Equestria or ponies on earth, and I think it could be interesting to do a roleplay based on these ideas. I have a few questions about the RP though. First, what do you mean by anthro pony? Second, would the pony character know how they ended up on Earth? And would the pony character have some way of returning to Equestria? Finally, what kind of setting and plot ideas do you have?

@Illiad Easle "O-oh. I see," Speckle replied. She was kind of disappointed, but she tried not to worry about it given that Indigo said that there wasn't much that could be done about it. "Oh wow that's cool! What places has he been to? And what are those places like? What are the ponies like there?" Speckle asked. "Huh, that's interesting to know. How do you know this? Have you seen how earth pony and unicorn bakeries do things?" Speckle asked. She found this differencekind of interesting. "Uum, yeah, everything is so different here. It's nothing like the big city. There is like so much nature around here. Also, there are so many things here that I haven't seen before. Like shimmerwood! There's also a lot of things that they do differently here compared to back home," Speckle replied.

@Illiad Easle Speckle looked a little saddened by this. "What happened to your clan?" she asked, glancing at Indigo. "Uum, what's the flower experiment?" Speckle asked. She tried to recall if she had done any experiments with Nova involving flowers. "Hmm, I haven't really thought about that before. However, I haven't really been outside of Canterlot until now, so I'm not really sure," Speckle replied. She tried to recall if she knew of any ponies from outside of Canterlot that looked different. "Oh wow, that's cool. I wonder if dyes like this are how they make those pastries so colourful in Canterlot?" Speckle pondered. When Indigo pulled out the mortar and pestle, she glanced at it curiously. "Ooh, I'd be interested in trying," she replied. She would take the pestle in her hooves and try grinding the flower petals in the mortar, getting some of the powder on her hooves in the process. Speckle would glance up at the zebra customers when they approached the stand. Since most of them spoke a language Speckle didn't understand, she would quickly turn her attention back to the dyes she was attempting to make. However, when she overheard one of the customers speaking Equish, she would pause for longer, setting down the pestle to focus on the zebra. "Uum, hello, I'm Speckle," she introduced herself.

@Illiad Easle While Speckle tried to maintain a positive attitude, it faltered when the other two brought up Turing. “Yeah he felt kind of… mean at first… at least until I caught something,” Speckle sighed. “And apparently, he’s kind of mean to Nova as well!” Speckle exclaimed, stomping a hoof on the ground in frustration. Speckle would glance curiously at the ponies passing by. While she could tell that they were ponies, Speckle was surprised to see that they didn’t have the same bright pastel colors as the ponies seen where she lived. “Huh, the ponies here look kind of different,” Speckle whispered to Nova. “Does that mean you found is surprising when you arrived in Canterlot and found bright pastel colored ponies everywhere?” Speckle seemed to remember a bit about what Nova and Indigo said about the ponies that lived nearby, but it was still a little surprising to actually see them. When it came to setting up, Speckle would mostly copy what Nova did. However, she would glance curiously at the various wares and compare the various colors to each other. “How do you make these colors?” Speckle would ask out loud while she helped the other two set up.
