private Young love blossoms

Silver looked at a nearby clock tower, that was easily seen from the park.

 

"Well, I think it's about time that I... or we get going to school. We wouldn't want to be late, especially you on your first day."

 

She said, not very seriously. She really had no idea why anypony said that.

[dusk shade 205]

"Being late is not really all that big a deal. I could be late everyday and still pass fine as long as I complete all assigned work on time", he said simply. '' But of course being late does make it seem like you don't care... Not that I do. This is really more or less, just something to kill time for me but let's go".

[Pat.Rio.T. 305]

They walked along down the road towards the school building, Silver walking alongside Rampart. She was a little worried about his interaction with the other ponies.

 

"Rampart, what would you do if some of the ponies in school started to make fun of you?"

[dusk shade 205]

Rampart looked at her a little bit confused. "Um, I don't know. Probably just toss them out of the nearest window. Or off of the roof. They'll be fine... Pegasus Ponies can just fly back up and you unicorns can teleported back up. Earth Ponies... Not so much.... Besides I'm just kidding. I'll just ignore it".

[Pat.Rio.T. 305]

((OOC: I'm sorry I haven't been replying so much in the past few days, I've just been busy. So don't worry, I am not giving up, it just might take a while.))

 

Silver got scared there for a second.

 

"I was just wondering... But, you know, hopefully they won't anyway. I mean... as long as you act normal, right? I mean it's not like you're any different besides your eyes."

 

She was mostly just thinking out loud.

[dusk shade 205]

"Heh.. Yeah, I'm just like everypony else. Except my father was an evil king who enslaved am entire empire and made it dissappear, I have dark magic pour get out of my eyes, I'm a crystal pony, which havnt been seen in centuries, and I have a monster inside of me. But other than all of that, we're exactly the same, sure".

[Pat.Rio.T. 305]

*Sigh* "Is it a habit of yours to make other ponies feel more uneasy than they already do? You're really making me wonder if coming to school is a good idea for you. Or for the other foals, for that matter."

 

Silver looked downward as she walked. She was really worried about how the day would go.

[dusk shade 205]

Rampart stopped dead and took a sharp breath exhaling it slowly. "Fine. I won't go. But just so you know, and this on your elitist little conscious, I was only going so I could hang out with you more and get to know you, since your my only friend besides Flint. And yeah that's a habit of mine. What do expect from the son of evil, night explain why I have no friends, and that includes you. If you were actually my friend, you would stop thinking I'm gonna hurt everypony who looks at me wrong, but you're obviously not my friend. You're just like everypony else, you think I'm evil. You think I live to kill. You think I'm planning to copy my father, we'll you don't know anything about me. No one does do don't judge me", he snapped as the smoke around his eyes doubled in volume as his anger grew.

((OOC: Just so you know, when she said "You're really making me wonder if coming to school is a good idea for you. Or for the other foals, for that matter." She meant she was worried what the everypony else would think of him, not what he would do. Not that I couldn't have phrased that one a little better.))

 

"What? Wait! No! Th-That's not what I meant! I want you to go. I want you to be treated like a normal pony. I-I want you to be my friend. I want you... t-to be with me...

But...

I'm scared... that nopony else will want that"

 

She got tears from him snapping at her.

[dusk shade 205]

(I thought so. But Rampart had a hard time understanding exactly what Ponies mean when they aren't specific. I understood. He didn't).

 

Rampart looked at her with his smoky eyes and sighed. "I-I'm sorry... I misunderstood what you meant... But how can you just stand there and want to be my friend when I snap at you like this", he asked and put a hoof on her shoulder to try to comfort her as the shadow on his eyes slowly returned to normal size. "Silver, I'm sorry. If you weren't my friend, I wouldn't be here right now, I'd still be running. But I lost sight of you being my friend... I'm sorry", he said quietly. "And I don't care what anypony else thinks about being my friend, and neither should you, you chose to be my friend and you should only worry about you, no one else", he finished.

"...And that's kind of why... I still want to be your friend..."

 

She was relieved that he wasn't so angry anymore.

 

"I don't understand how anypony else couldn't see at least some good in you, even under that... shadow..."

 

Silver completely forgot about school, and that they might be late.

[dusk shade 205]

He just resumed walking to the school, wishing to end the discussion concerning the shadow inside of him. He remained silent for remainder of the walk to the school and walked in, heading to the principals office to pick up a few things and sort some things out ahead if time.

[Pat.Rio.T. 305]

Silver didn't say anything else the rest of the way herself. She wasn't sure she wanted to start another conversation, even if she could actually think of something to say. She just went ahead to her class while Rampart went to the principal's office.

[dusk shade 205]

After he had sorted out what needed sorting out, of corn concealing his eyes to the best of his ability, he was given his schedule and walked into the Silver's classroom and took the set in the back corner. He had told the principal that she was his guideline he was not from Canterlot, and thus didn't know how way around. Due to this, the principal ensured his classes would all be with her.

Silver noticed him come into the classroom and sit down, she was two rows ahead of him. She was surprised that he was in the same class as her, as she was pretty sure that he would have been in a different grade. She wasn't going to complain though, she just continued to listen to the teacher.

[dusk shade 205]

Rampart just sat I'm his seat faded in and out of listening to what the teacher had to say, boredely fiddling with some origami to pass the time, though his game remained forward facing, namely on Silver, he wasn't sure why. It just was. Sure, it could have been that she was the only pony who knew in Canterlot, or maybe it was something elseaabout her that drew his gaze, though his eyes were as always hidden by the sunglasses.

[Pat.Rio.T. 305]

((OOC: Sorry for taking soooo long to reply this time, but I've been waiting for your reply on the OOC page.))

 

Silver was mostly paying attention to her studies, but she did try to check on Rampart every once in a while just to see how he was doing. Though she had a hard time trying without anypony else noticing her. She got the feeling that he was staring at her from time to time, but she couldn't certain.

[dusk shade 205]

(Oh crap Mlp Forums ate my post, sorry.. I just happened to be scrolling through the Roleplays and saw that my reply had not posted. Gonna time jump a coupled of weeks for convenience sake).

 

A few weeks had passed since Rampart had met Silver and they had become to an extent friends. Rampart liked to think of her as his friend and if seemed like she thought they were friends as well,but Rampart could never be sure. She was just really hard for him to read and figure out. She still hadn't come to visit his home which didn't surprise him but it did bug him that she had said she would and hadn't not that he would mention the problem to her.

[Pat.Rio.T. 305]

((OOC: Sorry. I am still here. I was beginning to wonder. Anyway, I'm not sure where either of the characters are supposed to be right now))

 

Over the weeks, their friendship became more "normal", however Silver always felt a little bit responsible, just because Rampart didn't have hardly any other friends. 

[dusk shade 205]

Rampart looked at the clock and saw that he had overslept and was late for school, not that he really cared. He would just skip school that day and read or something. However he decided to go, if only to talk to Silver. He grabbed a saddlebag and walked out from his house to the school, walking in two and a half hours late a d took his seat in the classroom right by the window.

 

(They are home getting ready for school. Rampart is starting to become attached to her, starting to have feelings for her, though he isn't aware if it since they are small right now).

[Pat.Rio.T. 305]

Silver had already been at the school ever since it started, and she usually tried to get there early. She was surprised and glad when Rampart walked in, wondering if he might have been sick or something. But not too surprised.

 

((I doubt this is the first time he's been late like this.))

[dusk shade 205]

(Yeah, he's late pretty often)

 

Rampart silently adjusted his sunglasses over his eyes and rested his head on his hooves before falling quickly asleep. He slept through the days classes like he usually did, keeping his eyes hidden behind his glasses and mane.

[Pat.Rio.T. 305]

Silver practically sighed. She knew that Rampart didn't really have much to learn from school, but she was sure that being late so much and falling asleep in class still probably wasn't good for his impression on the school. She thought multiple times about sitting next to Rampart, but it would be hard to get the pony, who usually sat there, to agree on changing seats.

 

((I'm sorry if I don't know how things are at school, I'm homeschooled.))

[dusk shade 205]

Rampart experimentally popped open one eye to peek at the clock and give the instructor a guide glare before shutting out again, knowing the teacher couldn't the glare from behind the glasses. The only reason he hadn't been to to takethem off was bbecause in his fiirst day, he told the principal that he had a condition where too much light hurt his eyes so the glasses protected from it, which the old fool had bought. What surprised Rampart was that nopony questioned him wearing half of a unicorns Horn around his neck.. That baffled him.

 

(P. S. I am referring to the horn I mentioned when he got the house. It belongs to Dusk Shade who fought Sombra long ago and lost because he couldn't control his magic and wound up with a broken Horn which Sombra kept as a trophy. Now Rampart has it. And BTW, Dusk Shade is Silver's oldest relative).

Silver noticed that young, annoying colt staring at her again. She really wished that he would get over it, he really creeped her out sometimes. It got her thinking about all the times she caught Rampart staring at her.

 

((Can we maybe end class? I really don't have much more to say))
