@, @@The-Master,

"Yeah, let's skate," said Moonbeam, trying to break the tension. Things had gotten pretty  awkward. She grabbed Star Keeper's hoof again. "Let's go," she said, pushing off of the wall to move the two of them forward a little before beginning to actually skate with him.

 

 

"Mhmm, i know exactly what you're talking about. And you can stay Keeper, im just messing with Star." She said giving him a light hearted smile. "Why dont we skate?" Hop asked as she took off slowly around the rink using her wings every now and then to keep from falling over.

 

 

Star Keeper was nearly pulled off his balance by the sudden tug at his hoof. When Moonbeam kicked off the the wall he managed to prevent himself falling face flat on the floor. This wasn't really helping his confidence. But soon they got back into their trend of sorts. It was enjoyable, and actually quite fun. A sudden slip under his hoof did cause him to reach his hoof further out, his foreleg now resting against Moonbeams shoulder. Star Keeper gave a slight blush before apologizing again. "Heh, sorry. I-I just lost my balance again."

 

Star nodded and followed the others out onto the rink. She managed to keep her balance and would occasionally have to use her wings to steer but she was starting to get the hang of it. "I gotta say...I think moving is easier than standing in one spot." She said, giving one pig push from her back hoof and speeding across the rink.

Moonbeam blushed as well and replied bashfully, "Oh, that's...that's okay..." A gentle smile crept up her face as she bowed her head and looked at Star Keeper in a somewhat shy manner. They skated in a circle around the edge of the rink, with Star and Little Hop nearby as well.

Accent had no idea what had happened at that point. She only watched Jabber run off after a mare, leaving her by herself. Until the other stallion came down and sat next to her and began to speak with her.

 

"Uh... I don't think we have... But I think I saw you at a concert before... That's probably why you look familiar to me... Let me introduce myself. I'm Accent Tap. But, I'm known as Accent.", she said, extending her hoof out to Encore.

A brief look of recognition flashed across Encore's face as he shook her hoof. "I'd be Encore. And... That's a funny coincidence. You wouldn't happen to play the drums, would you? There was a pony that looked an awful lot like you on the drums playing for one of the bands on venue at a concert the other day." He looked amused at the coincidence that he and Accent had surely attended each other's concerts.

Accent's eyes lit up a little. Could this possibly be a fan of hers from a long time?

 

"Yes, that was me. I was filling in for the other drummer since he had shingles. Jazz isn't really my strong suit, but everyone seemed to like it. But it's still surprising to see a fan. And extremely wonderful to meet you Encore."

Breathing a heavy sigh of relief that she didn't bring anything up, he turned to her and smiled. "Sure, but...I don't know if they would have put anything on so early would they? Then again...i've never been on a train with a built in cinema before" he chuckled, stepping outside and closing the door behind him.    "I'll uh, i'll let you lead. Just shout if you see anypony so I can hide" he laughed cheerfully.

 

Fiera nodded and continued on her way towards the cinema, Dusk close behind her. "Well if they can turn the lights off in the room, i don't see why they wouldn't" she told him. She was starting to wonder how they even fit a cinema onto a train... probably condensing magic, or aura shrink magic. Something alike to that.

 

Once they got to the cinema, Fiera stopped and turn around. "Okay. Do you want balcony seats, or bottom floor?"

Dusk looked a little worried when she mentioned balconies. "I um...b-bottom floor, if that's okay with you." he then looked down at the floor and whispered to her "I uh...i'm terrified of heights" He smiled, looking back up and at the door I hope there aren't many ponies in there... he thought as his eye twitched a little. 

[The Original 571]

@,

 

Fiera smiled. "Its okay, quite a lot of ponies are and there is no problem with it" she assured him. She walked through the bottom floor doors and smiled when she noticed the movie. She lead Dusk and herself to the far back of the cinema, where they would be able to sit alone. Every other pony was either in the middle or on the balcony. "Awesome, seats to ourselves" she whispered to Dusk. "The movie is almost over. If i remember correctly, when i asked the train ticket pony about the cinema, she said it had a request system. If we want we can choose what movie to watch, but there is a list. Our request will be put at the bottom of the list. I guess if we wanted we could set a request and come back later, but we don't have to if you don't want to" she whispered to Dusk when she was sat down.

[Agent505 661]

@,

 

He looked thoughtfully at the screen as he contemplated any movies he might like to watch. "Hmm...I guess we could, sure. That's a nice idea." He looked around the cinema, noticing just how alone they where he smiled and sighed in relief as he relaxed into the chair. He felt oddly comfy, despite everything.

Encore couldn't help grinning at the coincidence. He wasn't too happy at her use of the word 'fan', but did not challenge it. Good impressions could do wonders.

 

"It's always great to meet other musicians new on the scene," he said, smiling somewhat fondly at her. Mere moments later, however, he looked back at the door that Unholy had so recently disappeared through. His conscience bit at him. He ought to have pursued her, he knew it.

(OCC: the feels! i guess Jabbermouth can't handle the feels XD )

Unholy followed Jabbermouth until she got to the part where she had to cross between carts. Unholy froze in fear.

"i-i can't cross by myself..." she whimpered, shaking where her hooves were planted on the ground.

 

Don't sigh, don't sigh, don't sigh...

 

Jabber choked down a tired huff. Really, this mare was quite needy and cute and whiny and her eyes were pretty and oh dear Celestia this vacation was turning him into a romantic.

 

"Here, just...just hold onto my hoof and I'll walk you across." He guided her hoof into his- wow, hers was really warm- no, shut up, Jabber. And stop talking to yourself. Okay.

 

Hurriedly but refraining from pushing her, Jabber guided Unholy across to the other carriage, eventually making their way back to Encore and Accent. "Encore, dear, I brought the poor mare back. Thank you for your concern for her well being- oh, wait..." He trailed off, casting a subtle sidelong glance at Accent.

Accent smiled back at him. "Yes, it IS a good coincidence. You know, I'll admit something about you, Encore... You struck a fa--"

 

Her sentence was cut off by seeing Jabber with the other mare running off earlier, with him looking right at Accent. She silently gulped, a bit scared of this outcome. "Oh, hello, Jabber..."

Encore took a moment to register what Accent had said, turning around to see Jabber right behind him. While he was curious what it had been she had been saying, he dismissed that curiosity in the excitement that Jabber had somehow managed to bring Unholy back with him. He didn't miss Jabber's veiled criticism. 

 

"I'm sorry, Unholy. I would have come too, but..." He glanced sideways at Jabber, "I didn't want to goof up again and upset you further." He couldn't deny that he wasn't entirely sure what had caused her to storm off in the first place, but he was quite sure that it had been because of him and that he would have only made things worse if he'd accompanied Jabber to coax her out of her carriage. And he sincerely sounded like he believed it.

Jabber leaned in close to Unholy's ear. "See what I mean? He's scared he would upset you because he only sees what is on the surface." He made sure to say this just loudly enough for Encore to make out. Standing up straight again, he continued. "Unholy here and I had a little conversation back in her room about the way she is being treated by everypony else. Care to fill him in, dear?" He said, patting Unholy lightly on the shoulder.

@, @, @@Kolth,

Unholy just shifted from hoof to hoof again, she felt rather uncomfortable with the other mare there.

She turned to Jabber, shook her head, then lowered it towards the floor.

"Encore... d-do y k-know where the s-spa is?" she stammered while asking the question.

She nervously tapped one hoof on the ground, keeping her head down.

 

Her hair managed to dry and was sticking straight up in awkward places like it normally did, and some of the stripes on her back... it was weird... looked like they were melting off...

Hop skated around the rinks a few time before passing up Star. "So this is fun. Do you know what time it is?" She asked trying to keep pace with Star. Star really looked beautiful up close. She almost wanted just lean in and... *Wow me, jumping to stuff like that already? You haven't even know her that long.*

Star shrugged. "I don't know." She said, looking around the room.

After a moment of searching she saw a small clock in the corner of the room. "Its-" She was cut off as she accidentally skated into the wall surrounding the rink...again. But this time instead of falling inside the rink, she went right over the wall, head over hooves.

Fiera was surprised when the next movie turned out to be horror. She always despised horror movies, mainly cause they scared her at every turn. This would end up haunting her for weeks... but it was worth it for Dusk's sake.

 

Throughout the movie, she had been trying hard not to show fear, but the movie just kept getting scarier and scarier, and soon enough she was clinging onto Dusk. She wanted him to comfort her but... it was probably already awkward enough for him.

Hop again watched as Star hit and tumble over a wall. She quickly turned and met Star. "You really should stop running into stuff. It seems to be a trend for you." Hop said helping Star to her hooves. "Are you sure this dosnt happen often for you because it really does seem like it."

@, 

 

Dusks eyes widened a little and he felt his heartbeat pick up. He wasn't scared of the movie, he's never been scared of horror movies, something his father used to tell him when he was young - "Just remember, there's always the cameraman right there in case anything was going wrong" 

 

'Dusk! What are you doing?! Shadow hissed in his mind. 

I...I...I do-

'She's right there, right there and you're not doing anything!'

 

"Oh...uh...are you alright? Is everything okay?" he whispered, not entirely sure what to do in a situation like this "we uh, we can leave if you like?"

[The Original 571]

@, 

 

"No!" she said a bit too loudly, a few heads turned her way and eyed her for a second, then turned away. "No, I'm fine. As long as you are here I'll be okay" she whispered, scooting a bit closer to Dusk, but hopefully not enough to make him uncomfortable. "I'm just not the biggest fan of horror movies"

[Agent505 661]

@,

 

Dusk smiled, feeling oddly confident with himself. 'At least she's being honest with you' he thought to himself as he cupped her hoof in his - not quite realising just how forward he was being at the time "honestly, it's no problem if you want us to leave." he smiled at her, trying his best to reassure her.

Star blushed and shakily got to her hooves. "M-Maybe we should g-go eat some d-dinner." She said, putting her forehooves on the wall around the rink to keep herself stable. After a moment she realized that may have sounded like her asking Hop out on a date. "I mean....maybe...we should...like..." Her blush got slightly worse.

Hop smiled at Stars proposal. "Dinner sounds nice. Im going to go put these up." With that she skated away to the counter and gave the pony back the skates then waited for Star. *She's so cute when she's nervous. You think that about everypony when they're nervous. Huh... Good point me...*

Star nodded and pulled off her skates. "Let me just tell Keeper and Moonbea-" She looked out at the two of them skating around the rink...rather close together. "Never mind...should we eat at that really fancy place that ask's you to wear nice clothes or at the other diner ?"

Fiera shook her head. "Unless you want to leave" she said. She was happy he was trying to comfort her a little, but leaving without Dusk wanting to would just make her sad. She wanted Dusk to have the best time possible on this train, and she hoped the whole time she would be part of it.
