Standard User 2,127 January 3, 2013 Share January 3, 2013 The door to the Prancing Pony burst open suddenly and a dark purple unicorn scrambled in. Just as quickly (and loudly!) she slammed the door shut again and pushed herself up against it. She was gasping for breath and clearly in a state of disarray, with leaves in her mane and a vine wrapped around left hind leg. It took a few moments, but she caught her breath and realized nothing was attempting to push through the door. She heaved a sigh and slumped to the ground. Then, realizing this was definitely not part of a jungle, she blinked and looked around at the tavern. "...this is new." She mumbled to herself, looking more at the building itself than the ponies inside it. Lingo popped up beside the new pony and tapped her on the shoulder. "Hey, whatcha running from deary?" Satisfied with the ponies surprised reaction, Lingo laughed. "No worries! You're in The Prancing Pony Tavern now, the friendliest place in the multiverses! Most of the time." She chuckled. "So sit back, cool your hooves, and let me pour ya' a cold one! What do you feel like today, doll?" oOo RIP Forums Writing Centre ;_; oOo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trinity Erin 32 January 3, 2013 Share January 3, 2013 Solidus chuckled a bit. "Sorry, but everything about that is fake. I don't even have a brother." He stopped, and thought about when he was growing up. He always wanted a sibling..somepony to grow up with. He was upset that he lied, especially over something like this. If Solidus did have a brother, it would have been safe to say that they'd be stuck together. But it was a game, meant to have fun. He shrugged it off, and let out a fake grin, hoping Trinity would go on with the game so they could continue having fun. "Thanks, it means a lot." Solidus smiled at the kind pony. He was unsure about when they were going to get to repairing the wheel, and thought about going ahead and getting it out of the way. ..But he was having fun, and he hoped that Trinity was too. So he left it alone. Trinity sighed, but she was still smiling at Solidus. "That's what I love about this game, we can learn so much about each other without the awkwardness." Games always made things easier when getting to know other people."I think it's your turn to ask a question now." She giggled and waited for him to ask her any question.

"I liked it, but never really settled down to doing anything much. I got bored at school and Stargazer and I used to skip class sometimes; I'd use my magic to make sure that we never got caught. It was only after we went into the Everfree Forest and found that strange pony town that I got my cutie mark and realised that magic spells were my talent." "Thanks, it means a lot."

He wish he had been able to stop the robberies, but there was no way he could prevent them. But hearing she stood up for a friend put out a sense of comfort and trust. Solidus nodded his head 'no'. "I tend to keep to myself. Plus, I'd rather get to know the mare before I flirt." He had a more serious look than before. Solidus really does keep to himself quite a bit.

I guess it's just the gypsy in me." Trinity shrugged it off. She often blamed her art for her traveling, but sometimes it didn't feel that way. Sometimes it felt like she was just searching for something. "It gets lonely when I break off from groups. When it gets too quiet or too lonely I stop at the next town or city and I stay for awhile. Make some new friends or reunite with old ones. Then when the itch in my hooves comes back I either find another group to join up with or I just go."

She tilted her head one way and then another before lightly setting her pen down on the paper. Slowly, one line after another, an image began making itself known to her. As she drew, a small tune started to come to mind and before she realized she was doing it, Trinity was humming softly. When she was done, she had drawn Solidus's cutie mark. Surrounding it though, on the ground, were small gifts. Trinity thought of them as trinkets left there to thank Solidus for his kindness and his help. He seemed like the kind of pony that was always helping others one way or another. She even smiled and placed a wagon wheel just next to it. Just as she was finishing her drawing, her hummed song came to an end. Already Trinity was thinking of a story to go along with the song and drawing, but she wouldn't write it down. She didn't always have to write down the stories she thought of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
