ooc Diffuse Reflection (1x1 between Nightmare Season and Raven Rawne)

Sounds like a plan

I guess we can start time skipping since the trade deals are set. Just in case you take a big leap - Crystal will forbid Nightmare from being present as she gives birth and allow him to see her only after she's finished,  checked by the doc and cleaned up. She wouldn't want him to see her a mess. I'm curious when Hearts-Dream will strike back too.

 

Also, you keep mention Nightmare "getting her in the mood" or "making her shine even more". Does it mean what I think it means? The bedroom activities, to avoid the three letter word?

Thats what I mean. Trying to avoid anything that might make someone uncomfortable if reading our thread.

I weaved in the crystalling, but we still lack names for the twins. I'll try to think of something.

@@Raven Rawne,

 

I leave the name for the filly to you to name.

 

Also I plan on doing less slice of life and getting more adventure added in again. So think of good exploring we could do. I have a few planned.

Aww shoot, where's a Pith Helmet when you need one... Seriously though, adventure is fine but do keep in mind that their foals will eat just milk for 10 months or so. And even when they switch to solids Crystal won't just disappear for a week to search for some relic or whatever. So I advise we start with "backyard adventures" - short and safe. Their clan would also oppose if they would start being reckless.

It's too late for me to type a reply, but do I read correctly? He sent a letter he'll be back home in a day and didn't show up?

No the letter said he will be home in one day. I left it there for you to welcome him back after being gone 3 months.

So who's Wandering Sands? A nightmare? Or an earth pony? Also, is he around the same age as Sparks? I made her roughly 16 to be big enough to be self-suffiecient and of actual help around the house.

Earth pony, about her age yes.

Crystal will wait like that for an hour. I will pick up what happens when they get back. The post was getting to long to write any more into it.

@@Nightmare Season,

 

Shit, I got too much emotionally invested in this thing... Happens every time when I have a horse in the race, so to speak. Anyway, just in case you'll be wondering, I ma having a rouch patch at work so that means no replies from work for some time. I'll type my replies from home though.

That is alright with me. Just means that we have a good RP here. Work comes first after all.

@@Nightmare Season,

 

Heh, yeah. Thing is, I kind of "get into the character's head" for best RP quality, and when my toon gets a sledgehammer like the one in your last post, well, let's just say that feeling all she would is not really nice.

[Nightmare Season 617]

@@Raven Rawne,

 

I understand. I do they same thing. I also know that the few sledgehammers to the face moments keeps it feeling real and interesting.

Real? Yes, shit happens and stories should reflect that. Interesting? For a third party reader, sure. But, come on, the sheer amount of gut wrenching terror of watching him bleed and being unable to do anything about it, the galloping thoughts of him dying on her eyes and leaving her in an alien land with two foals... It makes my circuitry fry.

I guess you wanted to call it a day but I figured that she'll need to be checked that way to see if everything went okay. And so I can know the full extent if her new abilities. Also, she'll be unhappy about the physical changes for a bit. She feels as if they would turn her into anything if somepony as much as thinks it's a good idea, without as much as asking her about her views on the matter. Besides, she liked her previous self.

[Nightmare Season 617]

@@Raven Rawne,

 

I fixed it as no pony knew she would grow in size. My plan is after they eventually end the war they been in for so long. They both will earn their wings and be alicorn nightmares then. The size increase was to prep for her looking like a princess.

[Raven Rawne 1,381]

@@Nightmare Season

 

Alrite, I guess that will work. But I need to give her time to adjust and have some mixed feelings until she settles down. Also,  ending the war could be an epic quest for them, with exploring places and getting to know more nations first. Equestria and the ponies beyond the forest being first. They can ask Cadence to help them establish contacts with Canterlot. They have a lot of tech and magic know how to exchange for silk, spices, oriental wood and food.

[Nightmare Season 617]

@@Raven Rawne,

 

I have a rough plan with all that. The jungle ponies we will trade to get spices from. Which we can also trade to Equestria and the Empire. The ending the war I figure will be like a thousand posts away. Also I figure with Crystal's new size and magic, her time in heat will be easier. She will not loose her mind, though the craving to become pregnant will still be there, but she will not go crazy. Not till the foals grows up. Also you should come up with quests to do as well. We are in a moving city after all. We can go anywhere in the world.

[Raven Rawne 1,381]

@@Nightmare Season

 

Hilarious as her heat is, it does make it harder to send them off somewhere,  yeah. I'll write it so she'll manage to retain control now.

 

I figure the first thing will be the monthly meeting of the clans. They can go back to their lake spot before that happens.  There the clans will speak their mind about her long March to peace. The first thing I'd like to do is to enter that forest.  Since the camp will be nearby, they will be able to explore for a few hours per day. As the foals grow older the window of their free time will widen, since they have Sparks as a nanny. Sometime later Cadance will come with their yearly visit and request additional goods for trade. Maybe even bring a letter from Canterlot.

@@Nightmare Season

 

I figured Crystal should be unable to learn the fire shield, so that the ability would stand out as that of a true born. She may learn something uniquely hers later on.

 

Also, I thought that it would be cool if the race that lived on the other side of the forest were giraffes. I can't rhyme to pull off zebras...

 

 

Maybe I'm too fixated on that direction but they can also find a lost city in the forest and move the clan there to set an expedition outpost. Make it easier to scout the area and discover the treasures of the forest, like exotic wood and plant ingredients.
