private Life in Canterlot (SOL RP)

[dragon4111 914]

 

"oh, hey Draco, this is Jolt, he's new around here and I'm showing him around town, walk with us if you like"Hunter led Jolt through to all the hotspots of the city, taking regular breaks to avoid contractions"and thats the last of anything interesting in the city, phew, who would have thought carrying a baby would wear you out"she sat down and tried to catch her breath

"I've been meaning to get you that crib you've been wanting. I'm sorry if I've been busy. Sometimes these nobles get caught up in their own arrogance. Anyhow Sorry for complaining. My day hasn't been the best," Draco said with a sigh. He shook his head then said "If you ever need me Hunter,I'll be there for you my friend,"

((OOC : G'night! I'll be going to school too, so we're on the same level. :V))

''No problem!'' Splinter said while the books she had wanted increased. ''Man, what is it with me today? I'm not saying I'm acting in a bad way, but I've never been this nice! What could this mean? I'll probably find out later if I'm lucky.'' Splinter thought.

Flare thought to herself a moment, before accepting the books from him (now taken care of and rented by Splinter himself) and brushing her tail against his hoof in thanks, her arms too full to give him a hug of appreciation like she first thought to do. 

 

"Thanks a bunch for the books, Splint. I... guess I'll be seeing you around when I'm done with them...?" she offered with a somewhat coy smile, before recognising just how awkward saying goodbye was. "Or, um, before that, I'm t-totally cool with that too!" she added, showcasing a bad poker-face with effort as she waited for him to reply somewhat nervously.

Brazen Wrench stepped off the train groggily. It had been a long trip from the rock farms of western Equestria, and it felt good to be on four hooves again, even if the ground was much smoother than what she was used to.

 

"Not bad, Brazen" She chuckled to herself, eying up the magnificent buildings before her, glinting in the bright midday sunlight. "Not bad at all" She said, pushing her yellow hard hat down over her brown eyes. She reached into her saddlebag, sifting through her tools until she pulled out a bronze trinket. She opened it up revealing a picture of a grey colt in his late seventies, although his eyes made him look 20 years younger. Beside him, sat a cream colored filly, cuddling up to his leg. She held it close to her chest.  "I'm going to make you proud, grandpa." She said. "Even if it kills me."

"Hello Mr. , glad to make your acquaintance. If either of you want to, you can come get something to eat with me. I haven't had lunch yet and I've been eyeing the restaurant over there and it's tomato and basil soup."

 

A drift of wind came, blowing air from the restaurant over to Jolt. He took a sniff and sighed, "I've been keeping my nose on it as well."

 

Jolt waited then asked "So how do you two know each other or meet each other?"

Gray Cover was sitting behind one of the local desks in the library, the right side of the desk was filled with unopened letters and the left side with empty envelops of the letters he had already read, the read letters were stacked up neatly next to the pile of empty envelops.

 

The grey earth pony seemed to have some sort of notebook infront of him aswell and wrote something down everytime he read one of the recently opened letters.

 

While working quite hard and in a rather fast pase, "Why am I still doing all of this work?" Gray thought, he sighed and stopped writing for a moment. "Not that I have something bet-" his thoughts were interrupted by a pony who was talking rather loud further away in the library he turned his head towards the voice and frowned his left eyebrow for he saw a dark red coloured pegasi talking to another Pegasi.. lighty gray coloured.

 

Gray stared at the two for a few seconds.. "This is a library and that lady is being rather loud.." he thought but then    shrugged it off and continued his work. "Now, where was I?" he muttered towards himself quietly.

Jolt waited then asked "So how do you two know each other or meet each other?"

"oh, he's a courier, he used to deliver things to me, and comforted me after my fiance's death. nothing more than a friend"

Hunter looked a little sad when she mentioned her late fiance, it always made her sad, then she thought of their baby and always cheered her up a little

[Wandering-Flare 71]

[[OOC: This post is made with this quote in mind: "Well that was rude. Going off with a stranger, asking a question and not waiting for a reply." - Jolt.]]

 

The mare simply waved to the male once he didn't respond for a while, beginning to scuttle away awkwardly, ignoring the slightly disapproving look one particular pony at the desk seemed to be giving her with a "pfft..."; once out of the library, she looked for the other colt who had been talking to her before. He was probably long gone by now, but she felt a little guilty for leaving him behind like that. She had been so caught up in the idea of books that she had simply left without waiting for an answer - the least she could do was apologise. 

 

She looked around frantically, but couldn't see the pony she wanted to talk to. Her head hung a little as her wings began to flap and take her above the crowds of people - perhaps searching from the sky would be easier. So far, nothing but the arrogant bustling of pure Canterlot ponies, but she wouldn't be deterred. She flew fast, and eventually came to spot him. She flew faster towards him to ensure she wouldn't miss him again.

 

"Excuse me! Mister!" she called, skidding to a halt right in front of him.

Brazen walked down the wide street, once again in awe of the tall buildings that flanked her on either side. She noted that 3/4 of those walking down the street were Unicorns. "Puh!" She snorted. "Dad wernt' lying when he told me this here was the city of witchcraft." As she continued down the street, the concentration of Unicorns increased. "Fancy rotten slackers, the lot of 'em" She spat under her breath. Brazen could literally smell the magic on the wind. Lost in her thoughts, Brazen bumped into a rather fancy looking Stallion.

 

"Watch where you're going!" The Gentlecolt snorted, his horn glowing sharply, showing his disapproval.

 

The memories...

 

[i have to get out of here!] Brazen turned back towards the station.

 

[No! You've got a job to do Brazen! What would Grandpa think?] Brazen turned back in the right direction. Taking a deep breath, she anxiously looked around for somewhere she could take refuge and compose her thoughts. She spotted a nearby restaurant and began to make her way over to it.

 

((OOC: I have to go now guys, and I may not be back until 6:00pm GMT tomorrow. Could you keep that in mind when moving this along please? I don't want to be traveling to locations only for everypony to leave before I can post ))

Draco looked up and noticed a pegasus flying towards them. "Hey Jolt I think that cute pegasus is calling you," Draco said jokingly as he flared his wings "I better get going Hunter I have a delivery I need to get to. It's for a Mr. Hoity Toity," raco said as he hugged his friend "Don't get caught in the shuffle now," Draco whispered into her ear gentlely. He flew into the air slowly and that's what he hated about having a large wingspan, going slow at first then speeding up.

[null123456 759]

''Wait, what?'' Splinter said as the pegasus had vanished. ''Ah, screw this. I'm gunna go home.'' Splinter said as he trotted out of the library rather humiliated. ''I'm such a freaking idiot! Why was I day dreaming about damn robots at THAT time? I might as well lose all of my dignity now before I slowly lose it more and more everyday.'' Splinter said rather loudly as he trotted down the streets. ''I have a thousand words to describe me right now. And I really don't want to think about them.'' Splinter muttered as he kicked a rock.

A shout from above caught Jolt's attention. "Oh uh, what? Oh, hello! You're the pony I asked if they had a problem. Come on down, I'm just about to grab some lunch. You're welcome to join me if you wish."

 

Jolt turned to face Hunter. "The offer is still open to you as well."

 

[Everypony here is so friendly. People will just talk to you. I won't move here though, I'm not made of money.]

"sure, lunch sounds great"

Hunter smiled and faced the other mare

"hi, I'm Hunter"

two new ponies met this day alone, this is great to finally talk to somepony who is friendly

"as long as we go in walking distance, I cant fly when pregnant"

she let out a giggle

[qqq 218]

"Certainly, the restaurant is only over there."

Jolt points to a restaurant less than 50m away with a forehoof and turns to look at it.

"I think that's within walking distance. I'm trying not to fly as well as I have done something to my left wing on the journey up here. It aches a bit whenever it moves.

[Floris 287]

Gray let out a annoyingly sounding moan, stopped writing and thought; "That's it, I'll do the rest later tonight" he placed the remaining unread letters neatly in his satchel so that they wouldn't get creased, threw the envelops and most of the read letters away in a garbage can nearby, except for a few letters which he placed inside his notebook which he then closed and also placed in his satchel.

 

Gray then noticed his stomach was rumbling and looked at his pocket watch who was sticking out of his satchel.. "No wonder, I've been here for almost two hours.. Time to get something to eat." he muttered towards himself quietly.

 

With his rather packed satchel Gray left the library and started looking for a place to eat, he then heard someweone saying; "..the restaurant is only over there." Gray turned his head towards the pony the voice was coming from looked at his extending hoof was pointing at and noticed the restaurant further away, he instantly turned around and headed for the place while saying "Thank you." out of nowhere towards the yellow coloured pony and nodded at his company, he then kept moving towards the restaurant without expecting a reply.

[Wandering-Flare 71]

Flare gingerly followed the other ponies, flying at ground level beside them. 

 

"Uh, I just wanted to apologise for running off earlier. I just got so... caught up in books that I didn't stick around long enough for you to answer me. I'm sorry..." she told him bashfully, scratching the back of her head with a hoof, her eyes elsewhere. She wasn't goo with apologising. Never had been, probably never would be, but it was something that she (reluctantly) did when she felt it was absolutely necessary. 

 

"I'd love to accompany you guys though. I'm not really hungry, but I could do with a drink..." she smiled, continuing to fly beside them. She briefly wandered where the bigger pegasus had flown off to, and what he had said to the other pony before he had flown off. None of her business, she knew, but it didn't stop her being curious.

[qqq 218]

"No worries miss, at least you came back." Jolt gave Flare a reassuring smile. "Let's get going." Jolt started walking towards the restaurant with Flare and Hunter at his sides.

 

Upon reaching the restaurant, Jolt told the waiter "Table for three please." The waiter escorted them to a window seat in the corner. "You two can take the comfy sofa, I'll take the chair."

[ParsoOfEquestria 1,490]

Hunter sat down on the seat, it was really comfy, good for the baby

"so, tell me about yourselves, what brings you to Canterlot?"

she smiled at both Jolt and Flare, until she felt movement in her belly

"ooh, I just felt a kick, probably trying to say 'hurry up, mom, I'm hungry'"

she laughed and had a look at the menu

[Wandering-Flare 71]

Flare sat and flexed her wings; the seat was comfy, and gave her legs a break, before looking to the mare beside her. She would be dumb if she didn't assume she was carrying a baby... how tough for her. But she seemed to coping wonderfully.

 

The pegasus smiled. "Truthfully, I'm here on a bored front. I got tired of Ponyville and even Cloudsdale .. so I just flew to some place new. I don't really... well, it's nice enough but most of the ponies here are..." she lowered her voice consciously. "...Snobs." she finished, eyes peeking around the room to make sure nobody had heard her. "I don't really have a home here... just live in the clouds. It's home enough!" she grinned. By now, her throat was very dry, and she peered at a glass of water on a nearby table longingly.

 

"What about you?" she asked Hunter curiously. 

[Floris 287]

Gray was already seated when the company of ponies he just passed by entered the restaurant, he was sitting all the way in the corner of the restauraunt having a table for two for himself.

 

He stared at the company and felt some sort of envy for them.. but he got rid of the thought and took out a world map of Equestria and placed it on one half of the table, if someweone was close one he/she could see the map was altered by a lot of stripes, directions, crosses and words.

 

"I don't have anything better to do now anyways.." Gray muttered quietly to himself while giving the company of ponies one more glance and then started to inspect the map while waiting for his order.

"well, I've lived here my whole life, I find it amazing I didnt turn into ...them, I grew up, met a nice colt, got engaged, got pregnant, then him being a soldier of the royal guard, had to go on a mission. he.....never came back..."

a tear rolls down hunters face

"but I believe that this baby will be the return of my happiness, but its sad to know that it'll g row up without a father"

[Limey 524]

Brazen pushed open the door of the restaurant. She noticed in the corner of the room, a group of 3 ponies sitting round a table, one heavily pregnant, conversing with each other friendly. The normally friendly Brazen gulped. These were an entirely different class of ponies than she was used to, she had no idea how they would react to her. But she needed to make friends, she couldn't bear to be lonely, no matter how much she told herself otherwise.

 

She walked up to the table, gulping loudly. The ponies stopped their conversation and locked their eyes on her [Oh, no..]

"Any room for a humble engineer?" she stuttered shyly.

[Wandering-Flare 71]

Flare suddenly felt uneasy; she'd made this person unhappy already, and she had barely been two minutes within her company. Relinquishing grip on her books entirely (she had kept a distrustful tail wrapped around them), she slowly put a hoof to Hunter's shoulder.

 

"I'm sure your kid's gonna be great. And that their father was a good pony." she smiled reassuringly. "Everything'll be fine - you'll raise them well and do a super job!"

 

By now, she was actually believing the words that came out of her mouth; there was something about Hunter that was strong. 

 

Flare suddenly heard another voice and turned her head to eye a brave yellow: a hard hat. Slowly, she smiled.

 

"Sure, pull up a chair and join us!" she offered, easing herself away from the sentimental values of Hunter's situation - she was all for comfort, but she could never keep it up for long. 

[Floris 287]

Gray Cover was distracted once more when the cream coloured pony entered the restaurant and was quite surprised she instantly interacted with the company of ponies Gray was looking at just minutes ago.

 

"She definitly looks she isn't from around here, she must have quite the amount of guts just to go and talk to somepony like that.. unlike-" Gray instantly wrecked this thought and went back to inspecting his map.

Hunter Smiled at Flare's cheering her up

"thank you, I feel a lot better now. don't let me bring down your mood, the past may have happened, but I can always meet someone else that could be a father figure"

she looked towards the new pony

"hi, I'm Hunter"

she smiled

[Wandering-Flare 71]

The fire-red pegasus felt a little more comfortable after Hunter's reassurance and allowed herself to spontaneously order a glass of water as the waiter passed. He gave a friendly nod and disappeared into the kitchen. 

 

"Good you're not so under the weather now." she said, touching her mane slowly, looking sheepish. She then turned to the newest addition to their table and waved a callous hoof at her.

 

"I'm Flare by the way." she grinned confidently.
