And done; again, my sincerest apologies.

Not a problem, I thought of a backup post for the RP, but this will do, get well soon.

Okay, I guess I have to control my character out of the area once the statues are cleared of the vines. I guess I should head for the quarry, knowing that Dax would be there.

I've been here since the forum's early days. When you think about it, it seemed like time flew by too fast, well happy birthday MLPF!  

So after reading the last entry, I thought that Gold Dust is too demanding regarding his employment. I guess this could indicate that he was raised spoiled, given his wealthy background, so it's likely that he has never experienced any form of employment before.

Looks to be an interesting read, really curious on Vylia's response.

The statue was... taller than she expected.

It looked to be almost a story tall, and depicted... somepony... with wings outstretched.  What's more, it wasn't the only one here; there seemed to be another one, situated across from this one, and it too was covered in vines and growth.

With a bit of clearing, Bloom began to notice little details about the statue, such as how the marble it was made from was so very smooth, and parts of it almost looked alive.  Of course, with the encounter she'd had earlier, it was a bit unnerving to say the least.  But as the rest of the foliage began to join the pile she was making, she made out what appeared to be a long and flowing mane, a very regal pose, and... a horn?

Now she was beginning to see it; this wasn't a Blackwater - this was Princess Luna!

It was a simply marvellous sculpture; it captured her essence exceedingly well, and was quite breathtaking to behold.  Not only that, but it was quite well-preserved, for having been outside for... well, from the vines, perhaps a very, very long time?

While ridding the statue from the vines and overgrowth, Bloom took note that this one was taller than the other ones in the area, she then stopped to take a look around the area to find a similar statue, it too was covered in vines. "Okay, who could that be? Hmm, well a request is a request, guess I'll have to take care of that too." She thought, before continuing. Upon closer inspection, she noticed that this statue not only had wings, but a horn as well. It also sported a long, flowing mane, and it was striking a regal pose, all this baffled her, "Wait, I've seen this before, where could I have- Oh....That's no Blackwater....that's.." She thought before noticing the engraved cutie mark on the sculpture, now free of the vines. "P-Princess Luna!" She exclaimed, as she gazed at the detailed statue of the princess.

She then turned her attention to the other statue, which Bloom thought was safe to assume to be of Princess Celestia, "So that must be Princess Celestia correct? Well, here I go again with the vines. This isn't my kind of thing in my line of work, but to see such spectacle is a wondrous experience." And with that thought, she approached the other statue to do the same thing she had done to the statue of Princess Luna.

The statuary garden in question was only a short trek from Blackwater Ridge, but the path there would either be back to the manor then out to the garden... or a return to the mountainside path they'd taken in getting here.  Mystic wouldn't have liked it, no... but the statue had interacted with Love Bloom; maybe this was her particular mission?

But should she go it alone? 

While heading down the path the statue pointed out, Bloom realized that this particular path either would lead back to the manor, or back to the way to Pitch Point, where they originally came from. Feeling pressured about finding the others, she thought about galloping her way through, but then remembered the request the statue made. Were she to ignore it, would be an insult to the code of the maid, and perhaps an insult to herself. Even if it came from an unlikely source within the premises, it was still a request, so she will have to fulfill it. Another thought that came up was why the statue had chosen her to carry out such task, might be because she was a maid who just happened to be in the area at the right time. Either that, or it could be her destiny to do so, but the latter seems highly unlikely to her.

Once she reached the overgrown statue, she cleared the vines with care, "Hmm, wonder who was buried here? Only one way to find out. Err.... maybe there was a reason why I was told to come here, not just to clear this stuff away, but maybe it wanted to show me something, not too sure about it, but I'll find out soon enough," She thought.

So I've noticed that someone will be playing two characters, well allow me to bring a technique up in here.

See that line? In order to do that, just simply type *[*hr*]* (remove the asterisks) and you can now create a seamless transition between two characters.

Okay, with that out of the way, I do look forward to the next chapter of the story, the robbery of Silver, looks to be very interesting to read.

I actually own three 3DS consoles, one is a New 3DS (With C Stick), and the others were the older models. Playing on the 3DS has since been taken over by my Switch.

I will be using this nice sketch of Bloom by Gaines in the future, really impressed by it:

I last ate some dragonfruit, it's really good.

Here is she 

It's exactly what I wanted. I love it, definitely using this in the RP I'm in, thanks!

Sorry, but this counts as a lot of clothing. 

Alright no problem then. I'll still be making a request for sketch of my OC Love Bloom:

Would it be okay if she were to be holding a maid headress? If not, then her alone would be fine.

I have a question: Are you willing to sketch a pony in a maid outfit? Because I was hoping you'd do one similar to this:

@Randimaxis

Bloom expected to be struck, but was astonished to see that the statue came to a halt right in front of her. "Huh? Did that do it? What happened?" She thought, before observing the statue point towards a canopy of forest, and in it, was jut of carved stone, that appears to be poking out of a mix of thick vines and other wild overgrowth, "There? Err...how may I help with that?" She spoke, before remembering one of the many tales of Master Daxter, and the distinguished statespony, Illiad Easle of Troy, when he visited the manor.  She recalled the time where the two had ventured out into that same area before. In almost an instant, she knew what was there.

"The statue of a relative, I remember now," Bloom spoke, right before the statue brought it's hoof down, then seemingly stared at her, before it drew its hoof back and forth on the ground to spell a single word.

'CLEAR'

"Clear? Oh I see, you would like me to clear that overgrowth on that statue correct?" Bloom said, figuring out what it wants her to do, then the the statue stared at her again, before returning to the same place it rested on. "Alright, I can take care of that," She said, before she left for the statue.

However, when it comes to Vylia... well, let's just say the Love Bloom already found out what Gold will shortly discover... 

Is it the fact the Gold's rival is the "marefriend" of Dax? Or is it because Mystic is simply female?

As of now, a lockdown is in effect for Guam, so I don't see much people around.

I see, no problem with that then.

As for Hope and Bloom, the latter herself went in undercover.

When you said latter, you mean Bloom correct? Well I don't like the idea of Bloom being an agent of some organization, as it was never my intention to write her as one. She isn't working for anyone, but the Blackwaters for now, and she arrived there at her own whim.

Though, I am open for ideas for interactions with others.

I don't intend to write Bloom as an undercover agent for an organization, she just heard rumours of the shady doings of the Blackwaters. Being the caring type,  and because of her persistent and naive nature, she made the trip there to see for herself, Vylia then intervened, which led to Bloom's employment, changing her perspective, and has made her grown fond of her fate.

Though that's my idea.

@Windy Breeze 🥧

I'm not too sure yet, but it could go along the lines like:

Because she bore a resemblance to an old friend, Bloom approached the pegasus to verify if it really is indeed her "F-Flow? Is it really you?" She asked before taking a closer look. From there, she realized that it was not her, but rather a doppelganger of her. Seeing that made the maid appolagize "P-pardon me, you just...looked like a old friend of mine. Oh yes, where are my manners...my name is Love Bloom, and I am a maid of the Blackwater manor, how may I serve you?"

Though, that's just an idea for now, but it may happen upon the first interaction with my character. I look forward to your introduction in the RP.

@Blitz Boom

Thank you for helping me.

I have already made a character sheet for my OC last night, here is her reference sheet.

Her boss had made a fake document of her history as a former miner in order to be accepted despite her right eye is useless. Her real name is Red Hope but she will be using another name, Aegis.

Her fake document explains she has worked as a miner before her retirement 5 years ago, it clarifies she's as good as any miner despite her right eye could barely see anything, it also explains she was born with heterochromia

There is also a large possibly she'll ask Luther if she could work both as a maid during the morning and miner after lunch if given the chance.

If you want to learn more about her, click here to visit her character sheet

Reminds me of my OC of the same name, Flow:

Both are pegasai and have the same color scheme lol, but I like Red Hope's design. And speaking of designs, I'm starting to have an idea of Bloom's first meeting with her, noting that she resembles her old friend or something.

The classic Toonami? Well, it would either be Sailor Moon, Gundam Wing, or Dragon Ball Z.

If @Windy Breeze 🥧 ever joins, then I look forward to what she can bring to the RP.

I was 18 when I joined the forums back in 2011, now I'm 26.
