"Oh...hi Moonbeam, Hi Accent. This is Star Keeper." She said, gesturing towards Star Keeper. "I was just having some hot chocolate when he came over so we got talking about...stuff." She smiled slightly and trotted over to a nearby garbage can to throw out the paper bag and cup.

"Hehe! Star and Star! What a neat coincidence!" she said in a soft, yet whimsical voice, giggling a little. "Anyway, it's very nice to meet you, Star Keeper! My name is Moonbeam. Do you two want to come with us to the lounge? We were going to go hang out there and maybe meet some new ponies. Hopefully Harmonic will catch up eventually.

Star Keeper resumed his nervous shuffling when a new pony walked in, but her calm and friendly tone made it a bit easier. "Sure, I guess I could come with you. I don't really have anything better to do, and you all seem nice nice enough. Why not?" He looked up to the mare who stood in front of him with a polite smile. It's nice to meet you Moonbeam."

Fiera didn't have enough bits to go gambling, so the casino was rendered useless to her. She huffed to herself and continued towards the roller rink. "No friends, no casino, no fun" she thought out loud. "I guess i could go skating for a little while. Maybe enjoy the spa as well" she said to herself. 

 

Fiera soon came to the place where the spa was, and the roller rink just below it. Spa first, skating later.

 

Although being pretty came naturally to her, it required a lot of maintenance to keep that way. A trip to the spa every month or so kept her looking the best she could be.

Star happily trotted back over to the group and smiled. "Where should we go now ? I heard that there was a roller rink below the spa...we could go there. I have never been roller skating before." She said, looking around the cart. "But i'm easy, I'm just happy to be around friends." She said, happily.

"That sounds fun. I've never been rolling skating either. I wonder how being on a train would effect us when we're skating? Anyway, let's go!" she said with a smile, trotting off with her friends.

 

"So, Star Keeper, what do you do for a living?" she asked in her usual soft, friendly manner.

"Um, I'm a Record Keeper for Ponyville Mayoral Office, but I'm also a bit of a Chronicler and a Historian. Nothing noteworthy. What about you. I mean, I haven't really heard anything about you save your name." Star Keeper slowly felt himself get a bit more comfortable in the situation, not shying away as much and not afraid to speak out, "I'm not being pushy am I?" most of the time.

"No, of course not! I'm a writer. A poet, to be specific. I work from my cottage, just outside of Ponyville. It's a pretty quiet life, but it's also a lot of fun. I get to go off on trips like this, for example," she said with a small laugh. "So, you're a historian? That sounds interesting. I bet you have lots of great stories to tell then! History can be so interesting, sometimes. Truth can be stranger than fiction, you know?" she said with enthusiasm.

[Miss Light Diamond 2,801]

Star silently followed behind Keeper and Moonbeam.

She would occasionally glance out the window as they passed by rivers and lakes. She couldn't help but smile, this was probably the farthest away from Ponyville she has ever been. "I wonder if Diamond has replied." She asked herself.

"Well, other than Star Song and Accent here, the only pony I've met is a stallion named Harmonic Revelations. I'm looking forward to making a lot of new friends though." As she spoke, they reached the stairs, and Moonbeam tripped, falling towards him. Oh no!

Splashing some water into his flustered face, and looking up at himself in the mirror, Dusk couldn't help but feel a little uneasy. 

He looked around the room, making sure there was nopony else in the toilet with him, and then he let out a breath he had apparently been holding in.

 

"What in the hay was that all about?" Came a voice from his mouth, that was not his own. This voice was very husk and dry, not at all like his normal soft and shy voice. 

"W-what do you mean? I'm just making friends..." Dusk replied, in a voice that dripped with fear. 

"But you're not though are you? You're making a foal of yourself. You had the chance to make a friend and you let her walk away! These two only want to use you, can't you see that?"

"Shadow, you're wrong. She walked away by herself, and Hop and Jabbermouth seem like nice ponies, why can't you just leave me alone?" In truth, he did feel bad about leaving Fiera, but he couldn't admit it out right.

"Because, someone has to look after you. Let me handle these two, c'mon Dusk..."

"No Shadow, I wont let you ruin things for me on this journey too. I have to spend a lot of time with these ponies and I don't need you ruining that!" He ended up shouting quite a bit louder than he would have liked to at this last part. 

 

Silence followed - no reply. 

Dusk quietly steadied his breathing and went back over to the sinks, washing his face once more and sighing heavily.

Accent watched the group head off to the roller rink, as she purposely left herself behind to do whatever she wished. She decided to venture out on her own, seeing what else was there for her to see. She looked around, seeing that she was desperately lost...

Smiling in spite of himself, Encore tapped his hoof on the ground a few times to regain feeling in it, as he spoke. "Well, there are railings up, so you'll be fine whenever you're ready to cross by yourself, alright? Well, this room here is yours," he said, pausing beside a locked door.

Unholy frowned at the thought of Encore leaving her alone... then she had an idea.

"can you wait here a moment? I'm just going to drop my saddle bag off, then i want to go get a spot of tea. that reminds me... is there any good places on the train to get tea?" she asked.

After a moment, Encore realised the noncommittal shrug he gave was entirely ineffective. Sighing inwardly and inaudibly at his own inconsideration, he said, "Well, alright, I guess. I don't see why not. They probably have some tea at the cafe, if they don't serve any at the Starbucks in the lounge."

Hop felt a little disappointed when Dusk left to the restroom, and turned back to Jabber. "So, its just us again. Tell me. Why do you want to have dinner with me so badly, you know since you say you're not wanting to get to other places. I want to know your motives."

 

The waiter had arrived perfectly in tandem with Hop's spiel, delivering the group's various drinks without so much as a whisper. Jabber really  hated elitist ponies.

 

"And I need a motive?" Jabber casually asked the question while letting his cup simmer beneath his nostrils, assaulting him with its tempting aroma. "What happened to the day and age where a pony could escort a fine young mare out for a pleasant meal without everyone getting all hussy-fussy about it?" Jabber thought for a second, then continued. "Not that you're hussy or fussy, love. I'm just speaking in generalities."

Star couldn't help but look at a rather pretty light gray pegasus with beautiful purple eyes as her, Moonbeam and Keeper trotted through the dining car. She stupidly walked into a table as she wasn't looking where she was going.

Luckily no pony was at the table but Star blushed quite a bit none the less as she quickly turned a few glasses that had fallen over right side up.

"Okay, I won't call you that anymore. Sorry, love." Jabber held back a snicker, covering it up by taking a tentative sip of his coffee. 

 

Not enough brandy. Per usual.

Its almost like some omnipresent and intelligent being is controlling each of them...you ever get that feeling like you're not in control? Like someone else is writing your story?"

Hop rolled her eyes. "I think you're talk a lot of trash." She then heard some clashing noises and turned to see a mare had run into a table. Hop gave the mare a small smile asking if she was ok. She figured the mare was fine but she always felt like she had to ask.

While Song seemed to be off talking to some other ponies, Moonbeam for some rather unexplained reason had toppled onto Star Keeper. It was rather awkward, after finding it rather hard not to blush.
