Eenohay 318 January 20, 2012 Share January 20, 2012 Rumo came out of the store with a map. He was feeling quite relieved that just the first store he visited happened to have maps in stock, now he could do whatever he wanted to do for the rest of the day. But he just wanted tomorrow to come! He thought for a moment about just not waiting for the rest of the group and wandering into the Everfree forest by himself. But then he remembered why he had joined it: The forest was full of dangers. He thought of some stories he had heard, about huge spiders set their webs all around the forest and cover them in a liquid that makes every creature just walk right into them, or terrible wolfes made out of branches who attack anyone that tries to pick fruit from the trees! "Let them come!" He thought "And I will show them who I am! And make a chair out of them!". He wasn't afraid at all, he actually wanted to fight them. The spiders, on the other hand... He noticed a blueish unicorn sitting in a bench. He had already seen him before, on the train. He decided to approach. "I saw you in the train. Uh, why do you want to visit, uh, explore the Everfree forest?" He asked a little bit akwardly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plasmastorm X-15 162 January 20, 2012 Share January 20, 2012 (edited) After flying around for sometime Lucky Star landed back at the train to see two ponies talking to each other. She walked up behind Rose. "Hey there!" Edited January 20, 2012 by CosmicwarriorX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aureity 3,055 January 20, 2012 Share January 20, 2012 Ampyrion blinked, his icy eyes focusing in Rumo. "A mixture of curiosity and determination to sharpen my skills." He rummaged through his bag to make sure everything was there. "You better make sure you have your supplies with you. Everything useful, that is." He flipped through his map, lost in thought. (Yeah sorry, he's not very social to strangers. Probably he'll open up a bit more as the adventure progresses and he learns to trust his companions :S) A lil' Catherine <(^.^)> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eenohay 318 January 20, 2012 Share January 20, 2012 "Yeah" Rumo muttered. Ah, how he wished Smyke were still there with him. This small talk, with all of its social conventions, he really wasn't very good at it, but he tried his best. He didn't know what to do, and had already begun conversation, so why not continue? He wasn't really aware of the fact that the pony he was talking to would rather stay quiet. "What, what are you going to do while you wait?" He said, trying to find the right words.

Shadow Stallion 436 January 20, 2012 Share January 20, 2012 (edited) This shouldn't be too bad.. Just don't mess up.. "So.. Uhm.. What's your name?.." Illuminate tried desperately to say something more than just a short question, but she couldn't spit anything else out. She watched as the unicorn scanned several books, and remembered the main reason why she came here. She began to start scanning books just like this other unicorn was doing, searching for details about the forest.

Aureity 3,055 January 20, 2012 Share January 20, 2012 Ampyrion blinked. Rumo didn't really get the message, did he? Well, he supposed, it was better to figure out his camping companions' personalities than to blindly walk into a dangerous forest with strangers. "I am not quite sure," he said. "I really don't have anything to do at the moment, I've finished preparing already. And it's not even lunchtime..."

Eenohay 318 January 20, 2012 Share January 20, 2012 "I'm in the same situation." Rumo replied. "I just wish it was tomorrow already" So, the guy had nothing to do. Should he suggest something? Was that what he was supposed to do? But he didn't know what to suggest. But he had to come up with something. "Uh, I guess I'll just take a walk then, I just can't sit around... uh..." Should he invite him? Was that the correct thing? "You can come with me if you want." Yeah, that should do it, he thought. That way he can choose what to do. Rumo began to wonder wether is correct to be too friendly to other people, maybe he should just talk when nescesary? Smyke could explain all of that to him, too bad he didn't ask him when he had the chance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aureity 3,055 January 20, 2012 Share January 20, 2012 Ampyrion considered. "Well, it's better than sitting here for hours." He got up and strapped his bag to his back. So much for being alone. Although, I guess it wouldn't be that bad to meet everypony. A lil' Catherine <(^.^)> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Page.Turner 940 January 20, 2012 Share January 20, 2012 "My name is Red." the unicorn nodded and once again focused his attention upon her, wondering what her business in the library could be and if it was the same as his own. He wasn't the most social unicorn, either, being sort of shy around strangers and terribly conscious of his leg. Or lack there of. "Or, in my native language, Rouge." he grinned a little bit; his accent was thick but not something easily misunderstood. "You were on the train, non?" ...

Eenohay 318 January 20, 2012 Share January 20, 2012 The pony accepted the invitation so more small talk. Was that good or bad? "I'd like to see a furnisher. I like furniture." Rumo said. Had he said it right? Wait, maybe he needed to say why. "I make furniture, thats why I like it." Rumo walked fast along the streets looking at all the shops and stalls. He noticed various stalls that sold fruits and vegetables. A particular one sell only apples. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Page.Turner 940 January 20, 2012 Share January 20, 2012 Post Haste was now leaving Sugar Cube Corner. The right side of his saddle bag carried his items while the left side was absolutely stuffed with cakes and treats alike. His mouth was also stuffed and icing along with cake crumbs speckled his cheeks to make him look like a very messy but happy pony. He cantered down the dirt roads of Ponyville, scouting his next hotspot and looking for some pony he recognized from the train to maybe partner up. If they were only allowed five items, then a partner would make ten and with their awesomeness combined they could be unstoppable! Or so he thought. ...

Shadow Stallion 436 January 20, 2012 Share January 20, 2012 "Yes.. I was on the train." Keep the conversation going, Illuminate! Just ask questions to get to know him better. "Uhm.. What happened to your leg?" ..I hope he doesn't take offense to that.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aureity 3,055 January 20, 2012 Share January 20, 2012 (I think the day's over by now, if we judge by real time but w/e) Ampyrion frowned. "That's...nice." He may have just found a pony more socially awkward than him. That was rare. A lil' Catherine <(^.^)> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Page.Turner 940 January 21, 2012 Share January 21, 2012 "Ah." Red grunted and his tail swayed casually. He sniffed softly then suddenly tensed at the mention of his tail. He just knew this would happen... of course he wouldn't seem good enough, he has three working legs and a peg. A PEG. With a sigh, he shifted awkwardly and stepped towards a book shelf. "I... I was very sick. They had to take my leg or I would die." ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadow Stallion 436 January 21, 2012 Share January 21, 2012 "Oh my.. That.. Is really unfortunate.. I'm very sorry to hear that.. That was really brave of you to do that though.. I probably would have chickened out." I feel so bad for him.. "But.. Why are you coming on this adventure into Evergreen if you only have.. three legs? Wouldn't that be a huge setback or something..?" Not caring about searching for books about Evergreen anymore, Illuminate looked into Red's eyes and for the first time in a very long time, felt comfortable talking to a pony.

Firestorm 8 January 21, 2012 Author Share January 21, 2012 Velvet took no notice of the others. She had gotten her map and compass and all she needed now was a place to sit so she could read the map and determine what to do first. The night was still young and while Ponyville was not known for its night life, it certainly had enough activity at night to keep things going. There was a night market sale going on at the town square and things were being sold at a cheaper price. Velvet thought she'd spend several bits to get herself some extra items for her trip. "Nothing like a nice apple pie," she said to herself as she headed for the town square when she bumped into a unicorn with a black coat. "Excuse me," Velvet said.

Eenohay 318 January 21, 2012 Share January 21, 2012 It was night already. Rumo had explored a good portion of the town, he had even seen a furnisher, but she wasn't very happy with some random pony going through her stuff, so he left. He was restless, as usual, He had been waiting for too long already! He wanted to find a place to sleep, so maybe the next day would come sooner. He found a cheap Hotel and rented a room, but he wasn't tired at all and couldn't sleep, so he decided to go outside again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Page.Turner 940 January 21, 2012 Share January 21, 2012 Red heaved a great sigh and walked over to another side of the library. He knew this was a bad idea. Why did he let himself get talked into this? What pony would ever think he was worthy of living a perfectly normal life? Not even a single mare would look his way when his romantic life was concerned. He couldn't blame them, though. It wasn't like he could do all the things normal ponies did... "I am perfectly capable of performing any task needed of me on this trip." But she was right. Maybe it wasn't too late to back out of it. He could spend the duration of his time in Ponyville; maybe stay at a bed and breakfast and when he returned home he could just tell his friends that it was a fun little camping adventure and nothing more. ...

Aureity 3,055 January 21, 2012 Share January 21, 2012 (edited) Ampyrion yawned. It was getting pretty late, and everypony else in the village was starting to fall asleep. The sun was almost out of sight on the horizon, and there was barely a glimmer of light left. Maybe I should rent a room... he thought. But...nah, it's okay, I don-*yawn*-don't want to trouble anyone at this late hour...mmm... He looked thoughtfully at the bench he had been sitting on a few moments ago. Gee, I hope my mental alarm wakes me up early next morning so I don't miss the rest of the group. He set his mental alarm to the crack of dawn and slowly drifted off to sleep on the bench.
