Indicus watches the two stallions talk for a while before deciding he would be better off leaving now that his mind had settled down. He dose notice that one of the stallion is wearing a dress. Indicus filed it in the many things that is none of his concern nor business. With that squared away Indicus got up and headed away from the pond.

Glade felt a presence leaving so he glanced over at the other male pony across the pond and felt slightly intrigued by him,he didn't know why nut he felt he could be useful later on,so he called him over to the two ponies,remembering that Rag was still very nervous around ponies,he gulped and hoped this stallion wouldn't be mean like the rest of the ponies they've came into contact with.

@@Aurora Lights, Jay wandered up to the pond where she spent a lot of her time and started nervously when she saw that there were other ponies there. Jay was always shy around other ponies; she couldn't help it. Only this year, she had finally been able to approach other ponies without being afraid of hurting them. This was cuz ever since she was a filly, Jay had had an evil mage known as Jinx living in her head and taking over her body. Jinx had been a unicorn who'd lived in upper class Canterlot decades ago, and who had craved immortality. She had achieved it but her body had been destroyed so she'd possessed Jay until she was able to perform a spell to get a new body. Jay had expected that Jinx would kill her now that she was no longer needed, but much to her surprise, Jinx had shown her mercy and allowed her to leave.

 

Now, Jay was tentatively trying to get on with her life. While Jinx had shared her mind, Jay's cutie mark had been a yin yang symbol, but after Jinx had left, the cutie mark had vanished. Now, Jay had no cutie mark cuz she hadn't yet discovered what her special talent was. She felt very self conscious about her lack of a cutie mark and hoped that the ponies here wouldn't remark on the fact.

Glade felt another presence enter their area and he looked around until he saw the mare that showed up. He gulped softly and feared she would either make fun of him,or try to hurt him. He looked around nervously,stopping in his tracks and looking at the ground,he was actually paralyzed by fear,he started breathing heavier as he heard voices in his head,they were yelling at him,screaming his name,he looked around and he then looked back up at the new mare,his ears flattened against his head as his eyes grew huge,"J-Jay...Jinx..."he muttered,they had gone to the same school,a very long time ago,he was still a colt and she was a filly,he was there when Jinx took over Jay's body and saw the destruction she had caused,he feared being around her,not just because of his past,but what he saw her do,he's never approached her before,he'd be surprised if she even remembered him,much less his name. He gulped but he felt no second presence inside of her,no possession,he blinked and stared at her unintentionally.

@@Aurora Lights, Jay was nervous when she looked at the stallion shrinking away from her; she recognised him as a colt who'd gone to her school. He hadn't been one of the bullies, that she definitely remembered. But he obviously remembered when Jinx had possessed her and was afraid. She didn't blame him; Jinx had done some terrible things while she had control. But now that Jinx was gone, surely she could make some friends, which she hadn't been able to do so before out of fear that Jinx would hurt them.

 

"H-hello," Jay stammered. "You remember me, don't you? I'm sorry for everything Jinx did, but she's gone now."

And seeing what she did to those colts...He slowly moved his back legs then his front to scoot backwards,he was so scared,it seemed strange,a 20 year old stallion fearing this 19 year old small mare,but he was a very strange pony. He gulped hard as he tried to drag out more words,to try to ease himself of the fear,"G-G-Gone?...F-Forever?..."he dredged out,his voice was quiet and feeble.

@@Aurora Lights, "Yes, that's right," Jay replied, quietly. "She was only waiting until I was old enough to perform a dark magic spell that would restore her body. Once she had done that, she left my mind and went into her new body. I thought that she'd kill me, but she told me that she would allow me to go. I was surprised at that cuz I had seen firsthoof what an evil creature she was."

 

Jay looked at her blank flank and sighed. "If you still don't believe me, then look at my flank. As soon as Jinx left my mind, the yin yang cutie mark I had vanished, and now I don't have a cutie mark at all cuz I don't know what my special talent is."

Because you suck at it.

Hay,I hate all ponies! Well,it's my body,and I'll decide who I like! You forget Black...This is my body too...We are the same pony,remember? Oh...Yeah...So,I'm arguing with myself? Eeyup. Well...' He looks around as he realizes he was staring at the mare the entire time he was talking to himself,he even stopped shaking,but when he realized she was looking at him,he started to shake again.

Rag looked between Glade and the mare that just walked into the park. It seemed like they knew each other from when they were younger. Rag has never been to school so he didn't know what could happen in one. But from the looks of thing it could be pretty hard to deal with as well. But when he looked back at Glade it seemed like he had a hard history with her. Maybe she was a bullY? From the sound of it she had another half that was pretty mean.

 

When rag started to get distressed again Rag moved closer to him, to help him and because Rag was still not very good at meeting new ponies. "Glade, are you okay?" He asked his voice showing sighs that he was worried.

Rag blinked after Glade said he wasn't his coltfriend.  He didn't really know what that was. He also didn't know why he had to say that.  But he decided to put that in the back of his mind for now. When Jay said that she had another pony living inside her, he instantly thought of one of his friends who also had another self. Then his attention went back to Glade after he mention his offer again. Rag smiled." Of course I want to help you. I like helping others."

 

He looked back at Jay, still smiling. He was staring to get tired of feeling bad and afraid. Another friend of his taught him how to dash some feelings away or just stop thinking about them. "Well now that's she's gone you can make friends. I've been locked in a caller half myself but I was able to meet many new friends."

 

He stood up and walked over to her. still smiling. "My name's Rag Stitch. And this is Dishcloth. " He held up his doll and waved one of her hooves at Jay. "We can be your friends.
