Rambler was barely able to resist rolling his eyes. He had already introduced himself twice in the space of about five minutes. "My name's Rambler."

 

@@MagicalStarRain,

 

He turned back to Night Song. "I'm a bit of a musician too, you know. Maybe we could play together some time?"

"Yes this is where you will be sleeping. It's built to fit an entire squadron...I mean a lot of ponies...with privacy of course....Like a dorm." Apollo said as he cleared his voice. He left his spot for a moment and approached Eve.

 

 

 

"I'd love to, but I can't yet. I haven't figured out how to extract the seeds and get them to spread yet." She shook her head irritably. "I have plenty of other lovely flowers if you'd like to have some. All grown with care, nurture, and magical encouragement to be the biggest and most beautiful flowers they can be." She smiled. "Ponies have told me my garden feels alive. Literally. That's how much magic goes into raising my chil- my plants." She turned slightly pink again, and turned away from the pony to hide it. Don't make them think you're weird. She trotted a few steps away to try and take the attention off herself

 

"Yeah, i will take your other flowers.Maybe you can help pick them out? But the flowers might not measure up to your-" Apollo stopped himself and coughed uncontrollably for a bit. 

"Excuse me....tickle in my throat....Excuse me." He said as he half bowed and walked back to the housing of the guests.

I almost called her beautiful. C'mon Apollo.

 

"Anyways, here is your quarters for your stay on my farmstead." Apollo said to the whole group as he opened the Door to the structure. As he did he revealed a long hallway with rooms on each side

"I see. Well, given that it is sure quite a big building." Dusty said while looking at the barracks.

Dusty decided to join the group of ponies who had started to get acquainted with each other.

 

"Heya, everypony. Haven't seen so many artiscally talented ponies at once for quite some time now. My Name's Dusty." he approached them with his cheerful, always-open-to-new-ponies mindset.

Well, as everyone was going to check out the bedrooms that Apollo was providing, Rockshire still seemed to be outside, looking about the premises... Everything had a simple country feel to it. That seemed to be extremely unique to her. True, she stayed back in Canterlot, but that doesn't mean she lived smack-dab into the city. She had actually lived off towards the edge of Canterlot, off near a cliff. Some things as simple as farms always had a nice feel for Rockshire...

 

She should probably get to seeing about her room, but... She simply walked over towards a fence, moving herself to where she could sit upon the top of the fence easily, and just sat there, enjoying this feeling.

[Descant 1,898]

Fire smiled and shook Eve's hoof without a second glance at the mud. "So...where ya from, Eve ?" She asked, trying to make conversation. Fire couldn't help but admire the mare...she made sure she was discrete about it but Evergreen was beautiful...even with all the mud.

Eve gave a small, nervous smile, and a similar laugh. "Manehattan, believe it or not. But I've not been there in years." She shrugged, and sighed. "What about you?"

Eve turned to include Apollo in the conversation. "I..." Her throat caught for a moment. My what?

"Well, yeah, I can help you pick out some flowers. You know, when our thing here is done." She felt kinda awkward for some reason.

 

But she followed Apollo to the building, and picked herself one of the rooms right next to the front door. So she wouldn't drip all the way down the hall after she'd spent the whole day outside. She didn't spend long in there - just long enough to set her herb satchel down - and then returned to the others to continue their conversation.

Fire was about to reply until Apollo spoke.
She just stood there and shuffled her hooves as Eve went off to her room...for a minute she thought Eve had just left but she came trotting out a few moments later and fire smiled. "Ponyville. I was born and raised in ponyville but my brother and I left a few years ago...the circus and stuff." She said, glancing over at her brother who seemed to be chatting with three other ponies. She giggled slightly as his expression changed to one of nervousness...Flame hated talking to big groups.

((Sorry I haven't posted in awhile, was busy a few days and forgot to check the topic))

 

Neon Fire looked at where they would be staying.  She looked down the hallway for awhile and saw the rooms that were on both sides of it.  She wondered if they were assigned to different rooms or if it was just first come first serve.  She stepped up a little bit, nervously.

 

"How do we know which room is ours?" She asked, in a bit of a louder voice.

[Rainbow Dash 1,472]

@@Neon Fire, 

"Just pick an unoccupied room. It really doesn't matter to me." Apollo said. He wasn't trying to sound uninterested, it was that he had gone through this countless number of times when he was in the guards..

 

While Apollo waited for the ponies to situate themselves he began humming, then eventually singing a

"Sure, I'd be happy to!" Night Song replied to the one named Rambler. Yet another showed and called them artistically talented. How does he know? We haven't even d- Oh wait, the Cutie Marks! "Thanks!" she said with a bright look. "She looked around the group in front of her and asked,"Where do you all come from?"

 

Just then, she heard Apollo talking about where they're going to sleep. Wanting to hear the stallions' answers, she decided to wait.

[Nightraxx 130]

Dusty had been inside the Barracks aswell. "Hey, not bad." he thought when he looked down the hallway; several doors were scattered alongside the hallway.

 

Then he turned to the dark-blue mare, Night Song, who had been asking the little group from where they had come from. Cheerfully, Dusty decided to answer.

 

"I've originally been from Baltimare, though nowadays i am traveling around many places. The last big place i had been to was near Ponyville, and from there i've made a short stop in Dodge city. I had gotten my invitation there shortly before, so afterwards i directly came here." he answered Night Song and smiled. "And by the way, you are welcome. I  salute ponies, who are creative and talented."

[Neon Fire 473]

Neon Fire nodded as she walked down the hallway, constantly looking back and forth at the rooms.  She finally chose a room at random and walked inside it, looking around.

 

"I guess this is where I'll be staying," Neon Fire said to herself.

 

She continued looking around the room, then sat down.

 

"Hopefully I can actually get out there and talk to people...  Without being too shy," she mumbled to herself.

Flame was starting to feel a little crowded so he slowly inched his way away from the three ponies until he was against a door. Which he pushed open to find an empty room. He smiled and walked in, dropping his stuff next to the bed as he went.

He fell down onto the bed which was quite comfortable...but a little musty.
He stood up and opened the window to get a breeze running through the room.

[Alex Kennedy 1,228]

@@MagicalStarRain,

 

Rambler shrugged. "I guess you could say I sort of come from everywhere. Or maybe nowhere would be more accurate. I grew up in Stallionshire, but I've been traveling pretty much constantly ever since I was old enough to go out on my own. I've never really been content to stay in one place for very long. In fact, now that I think about it, it reminds me of a certain old song. Would you like to hear it?"

"I... live close to there now. It's a cute little place, I suppose." She looked around, when Sky giggled, and saw what was obviously her older brother looking almost petrified in a group of ponies. "Poor bloke," she murmured in sympathy, then smiled when he managed to worm out of the group.

[ActFast231 432]

Crystal slipped into the barracks relatively unnoticed. She usually went ignored, but that was her shy demeanor. She picked the room at the end of the hall on the right side, and began to unload her things. She only carried her art supplies-sketchbook, pencil, a few colored pencils, and an eraser-a journal, and small canteen of water. When she settled in, she grabbed her journal and a pencil in a cherry red glow, and stepped outside the barracks to begin writing in it

Fire chuckled. "He's fine. Usually I am there with him when he's talking to big group's so he can hide behind me but on the rare occasions that i'm not he just run's away...it's adorable because most ponies see him as this big fancy tough stallion when he's actually just a big ol baby." Fire giggled but her smile disappeared when a voice from a nearby room met her ears. "I heard that." 

Fire blushed and cleared her throat. "Heh heh."

Eve was overcome with a fit of giggles after this exchange, and had to duck out for a minute. Once she had overcome them, she simply said, "You two are a riot. Almost as good at being hilariously mean to each other as my friends Ragtag are. And that's no idle compliment."

Fire laughed. "Yea we beat each other up but we're still best friends...even if we still get into fights...rarely...they're usually over stupid things like who should be the first to go on the outside of the wheel." She said, matter of factly. She then realized that that probably made no sense. "Just a...circus thing." She said, her blush returning.

 

 

Flame was laying on his bed, staring up at the ceiling...thinking about things...one of those things being Night Song. He shook his head and rolled onto his side...that other colt was a musician so Flame felt kinda doubtful that Night would go for him rather than...that Rambler guy...

Dusty saw a green haired mare coming out of a room at the end of the hallway, though he hadn't noticed her passing him by before.. He had seen her outside in front of the farmstead before. She was the one, who seemed to be an artist, which seemed very interesting to him. Her cutie mark told him as much.

 

Dusty still remembered her name from when she introduced herself to the host and the group...her name was Crystal. Crystal was carrying an assortment of drawing equipment.

 

He hadn't introduced himself to her up until now and thought he should go and talk to her.

 

He walked over to her "E-excuse me, Ms. Crystal." he said formally, since he thought it would be non-chalant to talk to her casually. "I believe we haven't talked before until now."

@,

Crystal yelped in surprise of the new arrival. She jumped back a little, but was quick to recover. Before her stood a earth pony with a rather grey color scheme. She only saw this a few times, and Crystal always thought it looked interesting compared to the usual color splash of other ponies, herself included.

"No, I, um, don't think we have. It' Dusty right? Um, I was just writing in uhh, this journal." She said, holding it up for him to see. It was a slightly worn journal with a olive green cover. It was a gift from Max who believed that ponies can function better when they get their thoughts and knowledge written and in easy access. The red unicorn used hers as a diary of sorts. And to document landmarks she sees so she cant get lost.

Dusty twitched a little as she reacted in surprise "Sorry, didn't mean to sneak up like that. And yep, Dusty's right." he said smiling.

 

She held her journal up. "A journal?" he said interested and looked at it; a lot of entries had been made already, some of them seemed to look like markings you would find on a landmap. "Interesting. I travel around a lot..., maybe i should try that out too, so i won't forget the places i've been to "

 

"But it sure looks like you have been around many places yourself." Dusty said interested.

"Yeah, it was my friends idea. He always keeps a journal on him." She was surprised that he took such an interest in the entries. Usually it was just sketched of places and entries about a days events. She shook her head at what he said.

"No, I have lived in Canterlot most my life, occasionally going to Ponyville. The sketches are places around Canterlot. It is pretty easy to get lost there." Crystal came to a realization that made her eyes widen a little. She was carrying a conversation. Without Nexus there holding her hoof through the entire thing. And she was enjoying it.

"I see. I've been to Canterlot a few times before. It sure is a marvelous city, though the many guards there sure don't make it easy to take a good look around anywhere. However, i did have the luck to be able to visit the beautiful garden there." he said while he remembered. "It sure is pretty easy to lose your track there in Canterlot"

 

Dusty then carefully looked at the sketches she made of various locations, of which some he had seen near Canterlot. They were pretty detailed and looked really great. "Those drawings are really good. I heard you were an artist when you introduced yourself."

he said and smiled lightly.

[ActFast231 432]

@,

Crystal did admit that there were a large number of guards present in Canterlot, more than before. But in the wake of the changling attack, they had proper reason for added security. Crystal blushed lightly at his compliment.

"Yeah, I have been drawing since I was a filly. It is how I got my cutie mark." She said, referring to the pencil wrapped in a rose on her flank.

"I especially enjoy drawing things of nature, like flowers and things like that." She was very happy to share this with him. She was happy that she was successfully making a friend on her own. It was a major achievement for her.

Dusty noticed her blush and almost blushed himself. "That's really great, i always look up to ponies, who are creative and able to create" he said genuinely.

 

When she mentioned that she particularly liked to do art of nature, he remembered all the wonderful places he had seen on his travels, flower fields, vast and overgrown with a colorful variety of flowers; Beaches, filled with clear blue water and with the waves gently caressing the banks of sand.  "Nature, i see. That's wonderful."

 

"This place here sure looks like you can find some inspiration here." he said cheerfully, looking around the landscape.
