Rigor Mortis left the funeral home and headed towards the center of Ponyville. She worked hard all morning and she was starving. Heading towards the cafe she licked her lips, switching her tail back and forth.
Domino yawned and stretched out from his position atop Carousel Boutique, a sure sign of a good rest. Sniffing the air to inhale whatever delightful afternoon scents came his way. One in particular made him twitch with excitement and, with the grace and style of a brick, he fell from the roof into the ground. A few minutes of getting his bearings later, Domino headed off towards the nearby cafe, mind already working on an elaborate scheme...
Giggle sat on a bench in the middle of town square, enjoying his day off from work and brainstorming ideas for his next story.
((Its always nice to be in a new jump in :D))
A griffin was skipping around ponyville. She giggled, caring a bag in her mouth. She stopped when she reached town square, and reached a bench and put the bag down. "[glow=blue,2,300]This is going to be the best day ever![/glow]" She smiled and jump on the bench to take a seat.
(( I figured it would be nice to let others feel at home in a brand new one. :3 ))
Rigor looked around the Town Square taking in the site of passing ponies, a seemingly relaxed pony on a bench, and the unusual sight of a griffin in Ponyville. Though she didn't let her eyes linger long, feeling it would be rude to do so as she trotted into the cafe with intention of getting something to go so she could enjoy the sun outside.
Not long after Rigor disappeared into the cafe did Domino arrive, his white coat basking in the sun as he observed the area. An excitable looking writer and a female griffon sat on a nearby bench, apart enough to say that they were in no way together. Domino's bizarre eyes were drawn to the griffon's bag, looking as plentiful as it did told him that the griffin had at least enough money to shop, let alone feed him. The writer was harder to guess, though Domino estimated the chances with him were equal if not more than the griffon. With a flick of his ear he trotted closer...
"Excuse me?" he asked the pair nonchalantly "Would either of you happen to know what time it is?"
((Never tried role playing before. So will see where this is going. At least a thread where one can still easily enter. :D))
After a long night without much sleep Chocolate rain headed out for a nice cup of cocoa. She couldn't await the taste of this sweet choctastic brew that would get her wide awake in no time. Coming around the corner at town square she finally spotted the cafe and started galloping towards it...
(( Well this is a great place to start roleplaying! Be careful though.. roleplaying can get addictive. ovO ))
Rigor waited in the cafe for her order of two dandelion sandwiches and a large order of hay fries. When it was ready she took the carry-out bag between her teeth and happily walked out of the cafe, debating where she wanted to sit to eat her meal.
((So, has anyone started anything yet?))
((Doesn't seem so...))
Having only the cocoa in mind, she didn't see the pony coming out of the cafe... In the next moment there were hay fries all over the place... "Im sorry.", Chocolate Rain babbled. "Without my morning cocoa I'm unable..." And then added: "By the way: I'm Chocolate Rain."
*A purple pegasus mare trots up to the cafe. She had a young orange unicorn foal saddled on her back*
A yellow unicorn, about fifteen walks down from eastern mane street, slowly sauntering around, looking at things with curiosity. It takes a few minutes before the unicorn makes it to the large building as she looks up at it, circling around it with very quiet hoofsteps.
*the mare finds an outside table and sets her foal down*
Hungry sweetie? *the foal nods*
Lyra walks around slowly looking around for her friend bon bon, however is unable to find her so instead she spots out the nearest empty bench and slowly gallops towards it. She than proceeds to magically adjust herself to sit down upon the empty bench in her typical humanized fashion as she waits happily. ovO
The unicorn casually walked, appearing to be levitating a sort of fancy bag. It had a tan colored hood, with yellow markings of a simple and curvy line, and the bottom part was yellow. It had a sort of yellow sparkle as it was suspended in the air, following the unicorn as her will desired. It barely seemed to be filled, but it surely had some items in it. The young mare looked around at the benches, and the buildings. She wasn't wearing any necklace, as her usual attire would have been.
Vanguard Squared looked around town not sure if there would be anypony that would get into the game of Vanguard it seemed like, He shared his name with the game after all. His deck was mostly poniblues and some miscellaneous clans to fill out his deck he was a good player it's just he lacked the cards and longed for the shadow pony cards that release in a few months. Even with a card disadvantage he was a good player "I hope i find someone to play soon or at least someone to talk with." :s
Arca, the unicorn, looked around, particularly at Vanguard, looking at him a but curiously.
Chocolate help Rigor cleaning up the mess. Afterwards she finally got herself the warm and yummy cup of cocoa. Drinking it she leaves the cafe and looks around. There are no free benches but one with only one pony on it. Moving towards it she realizes that pony was sitting quite funny. How was that even possible? Arriving at that bench with the funny sitting pony she says: "Hi, I'm Chocolate rain. You seem to be very flexible... Mind if I sit down next to you?"
Vanguard looks around to see Arca and waves and says out loud "Hi, My name is Vanguard!" :D
Arca seems a bit surprised by the pony, even though she'd been watching him. She gave a small wave, and a sheepish smile.
(( Oh dear. You all came here fast while I was at work. O: Terribly sorry for being gone. ))
Rigor Mortis jolted at being crashed into, she shook her head a moment before realizing her hay fries were all over the ground. She looked up at the offending pony ready to yell out of anger though she stopped herself realizing the other pony didn't seem like she did it on purpose. Calming herself down with a breath as she went to clean up the mess with the help of Chocolate Rain, "That's quite alright, these things happen." Her brown eyes looked over the other pony before responding, "I'm Rigor Mortis."
After the mess was cleaned and when Chocolate Rain went inside she sighed and packed up the hay fries deciding to give them to some animals that wouldn't mind some dirt on them. "Waste not," she muttered as she walked from the cafe to find a nice place to sit down and at least eat what was left of the lunch she bought.
(( Now I have to get some sleep for a while. Hope Igor enjoys the rest of the lunch. Will join back later... ))
As Lyra didn't seem to mind, Chocolate Rain sat down next to her, finished the cocoa and suddenly fell asleep. It's been a long night after all.
Vanguard looks around and is kinda confused but is going to move along to see what else ponyville has in store (going to check other RP threads)
The young mare lets out a small sigh, watching him pass.
Lyra extremely slowly looks towards the chocolate rain pony without even blinking her eyes intensely focused into a small shape. As she then proceeds to move towards the the pony, as she slowly opens her mouth in an attempt to try eat the chocolate pony. :D
(( No worries she will. ))
Rigor Mortis went to a bench that was near the one Chocolate Rain sat down with the pony who was sitting strangely. She stared for a moment but shook herself out of it, after all who was she to think another pony was strange. Getting on the bench as she opened what part of her lunch that didn't meet the ground, leaving enough room for another pony to sit down if they wished. She picked up one of the daffodil sandwiches to take a bite of it.
((First Role Play on a forum :3 ))
Physics Shift eyes flash open, finding himself in a bush, quickly looking around wondering how in Tartarus he got into a bush, he recalls that he never left the park last night when he was looking for one his scroll he dropped. Physics suddenly bursts out from the bush, making a audible sound from the rattle of branches and leafs, and see's a bench with several other ponies on it in-front of him, maybe they have seen my lost scroll!
"Ummm...Have you happened to spot a scroll around here? I...must have drop it here roughly...some time ago, and I can't seem to find it, can any of you be of service to me with this?"
(( Oooo well welcome! ^-^ Though I suggest being careful not to get addicted to forum rping you'll end up like me. ovO ))
Rigor Mortis blinked at the pony who jumped from the bush, she stared with her partially eaten sandwich hanging out of her mouth. She chewed and swallowed for a moment before speaking up to the pony who had made a bit of a mess of leaves and broken twigs. "I'm afraid I haven't seen a scroll around here at all."

She chewed and swallowed for a moment before speaking up to the pony who had made a bit of a mess of leaves and broken twigs. "I'm afraid I haven't seen a scroll around here at all."
Physic Shifts eyes narrow in suspicion, judging every muscle he saw move, she didn't look like she was lying, so she won't feel my wraith...today atleast.
"Very well then...What of you two?" Says Physics Shifting his gaze unto Lyra and Chocolate Rain. "Have YOU seen my scroll?"
Rigor flicked her tail looking back at the pony who's eyes narrowed, however when his attention was turned to the other ponies near her she resumed her eating. When her sandwich was finished she licked around her snout and sat there on the bench to enjoy the sun on her grey coat.
"I think i found your scroll it just appeared in front of me a couple hours ago" Vanguard opens the pack he keeps his deck box in. " It just strangely appeared i have been looking for it's owner for a while now" he uses his magic to pass the scroll to Physics. "here it is , I am glad this has found its way back to it's owner."
"Many thanks Mr...stranger." Physics Shift opens up the scroll to see what spell it was. "Let's see here...mass random teleportation...well that explains how it just sort of appeared in front of you, probably also explains how I woke up in a bush despite the fact i fell asleep on the road. Now the less important question would be were did the spell user teleport to? Into the ground maybe? Oh well." Physics starts walking away but turns around after a few steps.
"Would any of you be interested in a mass random teleportation spell? Never know when you might need to randomly scatter a bunch of objects!"
Rigor listened to the pair talk and she had to admit she was curious about the spell even though she had no way to produce magic. "It depends on the objects," she gave a bit of laughter at her private thought of randomly placing the bodies she had at the funeral home though she wouldn't act on it. "As well as it depends if I'll be able to find them again if the objects are very important," she continued, after all the thought of losing her tools was terrible.

"As well as it depends if I'll be able to find them again if the objects are very important," she continued, after all the thought of losing her tools was terrible.
Oh the spell can only teleport the objects roughly...a dozen or so meters, right? No half a dozen, let me see here..." Physics opens the scroll and checks the exact distance "...Ok carry the three, and the one, no two, ok any object that was teleported by this spell will move a maximum distance of thirteen and a third meter from their starting point, and a minimum of three hoofs . The Bright Flash of the teleport will make them easy to spot, unless your in a area that blocks vision, then you wont see the flash, right? Right, so if you should be able to find them after you teleport them." Physics holds the scroll forward to Rigor and another empty hoof towards her as well.
"That will be 50 bits, wait no discount day, 45 bits."
Rigor thought about it, it would be amusing to send somepony's items elsewhere as a prank. She gave a smirk at that thought and looked at the the pony before her. "Considering I'm not a unicorn, is it even possible for me to use it?" she asked him. Her short black tail flicked side to side at the idea of a wonderful prank.
"Well, scrolls are prepared spells" Explains Physics "A unicorn isn't the only pony that has magic, all of us have it, Unicorns are just ones that can cast their own spells. Scrolls are essentially a spell that's being constantly cast without any magic to fuel it, you can use it just as well as a unicorn can, all you have to do is 'boop' this middle of the scroll while concentrating on the object you wanna cast it on." Physics finishes his speech on how magic scrolls work.
"Once again 45 bits" Physics says, shaking his hoof for his payment.
A large almost evil smirk graced her face for only a few fleeting moments before going into her saddle bag to get out the necessary number of bits. "Wonderful," she said with a pleasant smile, "I will have to save this scroll for fun later." She gave him the bits and looked at him with a raised brow, "May I inquire the name of the pony who is giving me such an amusing party trick?"
"Physics Shifts, at your service, now then!" Physics hands the scroll to Rigor and turns around. "I must be on my way." Physics trots off to the Cafe, having spent the last few hours sleeping in a bush.
"Ok the cupcakes are 4 bits, and the pancakes are 3, which do I get?" Physics mumbles to himself, wondering what will be his late breakfast for the day.
Rigor quickly stuffed the scroll in her saddle bag and watched Physics start to trot off, she gave him a nod and closed her saddle bag. She returned to relaxing on the bench though her thoughts shifted to what she could do with the scroll. Some of her thoughts were a bit more amusing to herself than it would be to others, she let them wander for a while.
well I am off I have a temporary room at Twilight Sparkle's place she heard about one of my powers when i play this game and she wants to take notes about it so I will be gone for a while. She is so interested in what i can do ^-^ ( finally going to get to bed and I really have a busy day today [3:33 am now here] )
((Lyra, you finally got your avatar... :D And it's great!))
"NOOOOO! Don't eat me...! Don't eat me....!"
It's been a weird dream. Chocolate Rain couldn't remember all of it and as usual the bits of it were already drifting away faster and faster. It was one of that moments where you can't tell if your'e already awake or still in dreamland. She remembered cotton candy clouds with hay fries raining from them. On one of those there was Discord sitting (not really sitting but placed there in a quite unusual way) teleporting ponies randomly from A to B. And there was something about a pony wanting to eat her...
Suddenly she was awake. She turned her head a little and stared at the pony next to her. Shivers ran down her spine. That pony looked hungry and had "crazy" written all over her face... Chocolate Rain felt a deep fear inside her. Did that strangely sitting pony really want to eat her?
EDIT: Typo
((Thank you every so much! I actually found it on some random pony forum, while i was searching for a decent avatar how at the time it was much to big around "450 x 350" so i actually had to crop it to make it more so around 100x100))Lyra now noticing that the other pony had now suspected her of her attempted actions, quickly proceeding upon closing her already opened mouth. As she slowly looked away from the already frightened chocolaty pony, she scrunched her mouth inwards as her eyes became distant. "I am sorry for startling you Mr. Chocolate Delicious! I most certainly wasn't trying to eat you just now" Lyra Stated Nervously.
((Face i failed at describing))
Rigor Mortis jolted hearing Chocolate Rain's voice as she turned and looked at the frightened pony on the other bench next to the other pony who was sitting strangely. She blinked for a while and watched them with a curious look on her face.

I most certainly wasn't trying to eat you just now" Lyra Stated Nervously.
((That one made me laugh really hard...))
A little less frightened Chocolate Rain bluffed: "You should know I'm made really dark chocolate with a cocoa percentage of at least 120%. So I wouldn't even taste sweet and yummy but bitter. You wouldn't even enjoy eating me..." As the words came out of her mouth she realized it didn't even sound as convincing as it should have. Would the other pony buy this? She really hoped so.
((Oh that lyra of mine!))
Lyra's ear twitched upwards as the sweat from her face slowly started dripping downwards, as she slowly starting kicking her legs back and fourth from hunger as the other pony proclaimed of such delectable treats. Lyra's head slowly twitched again towards the chocolaty pony as her pupils once again grew ever so small, as small forms of drool could be seen coming from her mouth.
The nervous pony attempted to talk but was unable to as she tried ever so badly to resist her own hunger and temptation, just then the nervous pony thought of an idea! She jumped up upon her two back legs and shouted towards the distance pretending she had saw her friend bon bon. "I'm coming, bon bon!" Lyra then quickly ran off nervously towards the distance as fast as she could into the distance solely on her back two legs directly past rigor and than off screen.
Rigor Mortis raised an eyebrow at Chocolate Rain's words, a hundred and twenty percent was laughable to her. She put a hoof to her mouth and covered up her laugh, as if anypony would believe that. Though it did make her think about how Chocolate Rain was able to move if she was made of chocolate, also it gave her something to think about how she would work with a chocolate pony. She snickered a bit as she muttered under her breath, "Only way to preserve would be to put the body in a freezer."
She blinked as she watched Lyra's obvious discomfort and was worried about the drool coming to her mouth. Though when the pony umped on her hind legs and dashed off and past her she couldn't help it, she laughed out loud. Nearly falling off the bench she was on.
((Obviously the +20% came for being cooler... lol))
Chocolate Rain was relieved. That funny sitting pony was no threat to her anymore. Though Chocolate wondered why she ran away. It looked like she had seen somepony. But where she went there was none... Had Chocolate said something inappropriate? Should she've given her some of the chocolate secretly hidden beneath her hat (she always had some with her in case of an emergency)?
Looking further around she noticed somepony laughing. Was it laughing at her? She felt a little insecure... She still was only a little filly after all.
(( Oh of course! That's where it came from. ovO ))
Rigor Mortis took a breath to calm down her laughter as she looked at the small chocolate colored filly. "I must applaud you on protecting yourself," she started with a grin, "Though next time if somepony is looking at you like that I would suggest backing up out of range." She looked off where Lyra ran out of view, "You got lucky that her conscience got the better of her."
"Thank you mam. I would have gone away from her, but her crazy sitting thingy was somehow hypnotizing."
Chocolate now felt more and more secure. "Do you want some chocolate?", she asked. Usually she did that all the time, but since some of her friends and family were pretty annoyed with her chocolate affection she tried to hold her horses.
"Yes, the way she does sit is fascinating," she remarked before picking up her bags and moving to the bench were Chocolate Rain was sitting. She tilted her head a bit looking at the filly, "It's not from your physical body is it?"
"You have to know, I'm not really made of chocolate... I wonder why everypony thinks so. Earlier I just said I was made of 120% cocoa to make that pony not eat me, you know." And then Chocolate added: "I don't want to be impolite, but I have to leave now, as my big sis is expecting me home. We're going to try a new brownie recipe for my friend's Cotton Candy Cloud's birthday next week. Was nice to meet you... Eh... Nevermind... I'm sure I'll see you around sometime. Ponyville isn't that big I guess..."
(( I guess we have really bed timing (pun intended), because I have to hit the hay right now... All those timezones don't always make things easy. ))
(( It's the middle of the day for me and I've been studying thus my slow response time. Have a good sleep! ))
"Actually I didn't think you were until you told her that you were made out of it," she replied and smiled. Rigor blinked a bit and nodded, "It's quite alright, I'm sure we will see each other again." She sat there watching Chocolate Rain run off and she called out to her, "It's Rigor Mortis!"
(( For me it's now round about 11:00 in the morning... But I have no clue, what time it might be on town square... ovO ))
Having made a whole bunch of brownies following the new recipe, Chocolate needed somepony to test them. Not that she thought they were toxic or something (she had actually tried quite a few of them already), but she needed a second opinion (actually third, as her big sis has tasted them too). In the end Cotton Candy Cloud should really, really enjoy those, so it had to be the very best brownies of all Equestria and all time. If there was even the slightest possibility of finding someone knowing an even better recipe, she had to take it.
Chocolate took all the cookie sheets holding the delicious brownies and somehow managed to balance those on her back. Trying not to drop any of them she took of back to town.
Meanwhile above the town square on a drifting cloud laid Moonlight Gamer just watching all of the happening going on around the square and amazingly started to get bored. Sighing he decided to fly into town to see if there was anything he could do to quell his boredom.
Elluka walks around the town square her cloak's hood hiding her face she looks around (it has been some time since I have come out of the forest and into this town) she grins
Moonlight just trots casually thru town and sees a strange pony wearing a cloak and a hood covering their face. (Thinks to self) "I wonder who that is..I've never seen that pony before. I better keep a close eye on that one". Then proceeds to take to the sky and tail this mysterious pony from above.
(might as well get this off but I can't let any of her spys spot me if I take of the cloak right now and her spy's are here they would have seen me come out of the forest and then find the base) she continues walking she looks for a secluded area
Moonlight thought to himself while cloud hoping and thanking Celestia that it was a mildly cloudy day, that today was gonna be a pretty boring day until this hooded stranger wandered into town. Continously tailing this strange pony he thought to himself "Where did this pony come from anyway..i didnt see anyone come from the train station today that looked this suspicious before".
Elluka looks around seeing nopony she can be heard muttering something her hooves glow and the she vanishes for a split secound when she re appears the cloak is gone she is a Pegasus and her cutie mark is a clock with 7 orbs around it Thank the 4 I am a witch let's just hope any of her spys are around she says
Holding in a surprised gasp, Moonlight just stares at the mysterious pony..now pegasi..wide eyed and cant believe his eyes. "I've got to find somepony and tell them about this mysterious mare" he says quietly and quietly takes off back to the town.
Elluka turns around and heads back towards the town square
Moonlight lands in the square and sits down by the fountain to catch his break since he had never had to fly that fast in a while then begins to scan for a pony that would actually believe the crazy stuff he had witnessed earlier but to no avail. "Nopony could possibly believe what i witnessed".
(( It's almost 1 pm here now. Though when you messaged it was 2 am. Been doing essays alllllllll day.... ovO ))
Rigor stretched out in the sun as she laid on the bench, something red was caked in her black hair on one side but she made no move to get it off. She was exhausted after having an emergency she had to fix at the funeral home.
Moonlight scans the area again andn sees Rigor resting on a nearby bench. "Nah even if she does work at the funeral home she wouldn't believe my story".
Rigor Mortis' ears twitched slightly before she opened an eye to see where the voice was coming from. She didn't hear the words but she heard someone sound like they were talking. She eyed Moonlight for a moment before closing her eyes again to rest. After all, whatever it was it probably didn't involve her and it would be rude to talk to somepony that might have been thinking out loud.
"No harm in asking anyway right?.." Moonlight says then quietly hovers toward Rigor n looks her in the face without saying anything.
Rigor's ears twitched a bit before she opened an eye to look at Moonlight who was hovering in front of her. She stared back at the pony before speaking up, "Can I help you?"
"Um sorry to bother you but i was wondering if i could have a moment of your time..if you dont mind."
She opened her other eye as she laid there staring up at the other pony, "It's quite alright, what do you need?" She slowly sat up on the bench and stretched out her back slightly, "Forgive my rudeness, I had a bit of hard work earlier and I'm sore."
"Its alright. I can help with that if you want. Im not an massage expert but i know a thing or two."
Rigor perked up a bit at that but smiled, "Well why don't we see if I can help you with what you need first."
"Okay well actually its more of a listen to then believe it or not kind problem but anyway it goes like this." Moonlight takes a deep breath. "Well i was just flying around like i usually do and i spotted this really shady looking pony coming into town so naturally i followed em. Then after following for a while he or she..i dont know which because they had a hooded cloak on..used some kind of weird magic in an alley and became a pegasus and i really needed to tell somepony but i was afraid nopony would believe me so here i am telling you this crazy story." Moonlight took another small breath and sat there hoping Rigor wouldn't think he was a lunatic or something.
Rigor blinked as she listened to Moonlight, tilting her head at his rapid speech. Though she was able to catch it all even though he said all that in one breath. Silent for a moment she thought about that, she never really heard of a pony that could change into another one. "Was the pony you were following a unicorn? I mean before turning into a pegasus?" she asked, it was the only thing she could think of that would make sense.
"Well see thats the thing..the hood he or she was wearing was covering their entire face so i couldnt tell if there was a horn or not but even then why would a unicorn be so secretive about it".
Elluka hears the two talking she mutters some words her hooves glow and she disappears she listens to their talk
She thought about it, "Maybe the unicorn is jealous of pegasi and doesn't want others to know? Unicorns tend to be very proud of being a unicorn I can imagine one wouldn't want others to know they want to be something else." It was the only thing she could think of on the spot, though it did bring up other questions about something not so pure. "Did you recognize the pegasi the pony turned into?"
"No. I didnt. I was so surprised that i had to fly off and tell somepony but i was worried that nopony would believe me in the long run." Moonlight said with a slightly worried expression. "Well thats just what i needed to say. So how about i help with that back now."
"I see and I can understand that," she said as she debated on if she should worrying about the changing pony. "I'm sure that pony did it for a personal reason and it's nothing to worry about," she spoke mostly to herself. She stared at the stallion for a moment before giving a nod, "Alright, should I lay on my stomach or would it be easier if I was sitting?"
"Itd be better if you lay down. I hover when giving my massages so i can get the entire back". Moonlight thought about what he said then franticly follows up by saying "Not in the way of course..in case you thought that!" Moonlight lightly blushed and looked down.
Rigor couldn't help but laugh at the stallion, she stuck out her hoof while laughing. "I'm Rigor Mortis," she started trying to cover her awkward laughter, "I suppose I should get your name before I let some strange pony do something questionable behind my back." She was teasing of course, it amused her how he acted about something that could be considered a double entendre.
Moonlight shakes your hoof. "I'm Moonlight Gamer and i wont do anything weird. Trust me". Moonlight said then starts to hover.
Rigor laid on the bench, stretching out as she could feel her coat bristle a bit having somepony float above her. Of course she knew that Moonlight wouldn't do anything, they were out in the open sunshine in the middle of town. She was as safe as she could be, though it was still a bit strange to have somepony work on her back but it was aching so she couldn't be picky right now. She smirked, besides what's the worst that could happen?
Moonlight hovers a bit lower to get in hoofs reach of your back and starts massaging. "Like i said im not at all the best but i am known to give good massages even to colts". Moonlight then franticly says "N-n-not that I'm attracted to colts or anything like that..oooh". Moonlight stops talking then blushes again while continuing to massage Rigor's aching back.
Rigor laughed at that and her body shook slightly as she tried to recover and mask her laughter. She smiled, Moonlight was actually better than he gave himself credit, she could feel some of the knots loosening. "Aw.. so you just tease the colts with a massage then tell them you aren't attracted to them?" she asked with a smirk.
"N-n-no I dont. I just help out at the spa whenever they need me and colts happen to come in". Moonlight said getting really embarrassed while continuing the massage.
Her tail swished side to side for a moment as she listened, "You work at the spa?" She was curious at that and looked at her hoof before she hid both her front hooves under herself. She never went to the spa, she wasn't that type of mare. "Well then, it's obvious why you work on colts," she started, "Why didn't you say that earlier?"
"Well because i dont technically work there. I'm a freelancer and whoever needs help here in ponyville i help to the best of my ability since my special talent doesn't necessarily help the community in anyway". Moonlight said starting to work on your lower back.
"I see," Rigor started before getting quiet enjoying the massage. She was quiet for a while before speaking contently, "Your special talent doesn't help out? I'm sure you are mistaken."
"Yeah believe me staying up at night testing new games to be released to the young fillies and colts isnt really helping the general daytime workers so i decided to take on extra jobs during the day whenever i can. The other times are just spent watching over ponyville or going to cloudsdale". Moonlight said with a slight sigh then started massaging your upper back and between the shoulder blades.
"Hey that is valuable, can you imagine their faces if you didn't do that? They would be playing incomplete games and get frustrated easily," she said with her eyes closed, completely relaxed at this point with all her tense muscles worked out. "Though I suppose the extra jobs keep you from getting bored," she muttered.
"Exactly." Moonlight said with a slight smile then finishes your massage after doing your shoulders. "Done."
Rigor honestly didn't want to move now, though she forced herself to sit up with a contented sigh. "That was amazing, I feel so much better. Thank you, Moonlight," she spoke gratefully.
"Anytime Rigor. I was happy to help but if i may ask what were you doing that caused you to have all knots anyway?"
(( Sorry been doing an insane amount of biology homework while rping. ovO ))
She sighed, "Well I had to carry a pony that passed on by myself to the table. From there I spent hours working on that pony, honestly it is some of my best work but it took a lot of restoration and leaning over the table."
((its totally fine. no need to rush))
"You shouldnt be carrying..pardon my choice of words..dead and gone ponies by yourself. Its not good for your back. Dont you have someone who can help out with the heavy lifting?"
Rigor smirked at that, "You could call them anything you want. I just try to be subtle about it because I ever know how another pony will react." She shook her head, "I'm the only one at the funeral home, my job isn't exactly desired by many ponies. So I take care of the transport and lifting on my own, it's not too bad."
"Sounds to me like you could use the help but thats up to you if your willing to have me aboard".
She thought about that, it would be nice to have help around the funeral home. "I have no problem with it, though if you run out screaming I wont think less of you," she said with a smirk, "How sensitive is your nose and stomach?"
"Well with most of the jobs i've taken so far i dont think ill have a problem holding in my lunch if thats what your asking." Moonlight chuckled.
Rigor smiled brightly, "Good, you'll be surprised how many times I've spoke to other ponies who took off at the first sight of their first body."
"Im not one to run off before my first day but if you ask me that is kinda sad to hear".
"It is a difficult job I assume," she brushed it off, "Besides, at least you seem interested and it'll be fun to have someone to talk to that can respond."
(( Sorry had to go shopping. ))
"Well im sure that talking to the dead does start to get a little dull huh".
((Its okay))
"They are good listeners but they rarely have anything to add into the conversation," she smirked.
Moonlight laughed at the joke. "That was pretty funny. By the way do you always tease everypony you happen to meet or was i just that easy of a target?"
"It's a little bit of both to be honest," she said with a smirk as she jumped off the bench and flicked the end of her tail at his nose. "Though, I do enjoy teasing other ponies." She stretched a bit muttering, "I've been sitting on that bench too long."
Moonlight flinched slightly at the mare's tail hitting his nose. "Well if you ever need it i can always give you another massage". Moonlight said grinning sheepishly.
Rigor turned and gave him a bit of a wicked grin, "I have a better idea." She paused for a moment before digging at the ground with her front hoof, "How about a race?"
Moonlight looked at Rigor shocked but not at all surprised. "You're on". Moonlight lines up with you. "Your about to see why im the second fastest pegasi in Equestria".
"So modest," she said with a smirk, digging at the ground again making a small cloud of dust. "Ready?"
"Ready".
"Three," she started with a smirk, "Two.." Rigor trailed off and then took off running, "Go!" Laughing as she took a bit of an advantage since she doesn't have wings, enjoying the wind flowing though her mane as she ran.
"Awww. how fair." Moonlight flared his wing then waited til Rigor got out of sight then took off after her.
She ran for a bit and looked beside and around her, not seeing him. Rigor blinked and slowed to a slow trot wondering if she upset him by taking a head start.
He starts to speed up and sees her in the distance and yells "I WOULDN'T SLOW DOWN IF I WERE YOU!"
Meanwhile Vanguard Squared Bursts out of the door to Twilight Sparkle's house Yelling " I don't care if your studying my Psyqualia, It's not your plaything!" running as fast as he can go with Twilight sparkle shouting "Please come back I didn't mean to force you to activate it COME BACK" Vanguard continued to run Shouting " I'll be back just give me some space Twilight!" Twilight shouts once more in understanding "OK VANGUARD but remember i need this report of your ability for Celistia!"
Rigor smirked and took off though as she was running close to the library she could hear yelling, she was curious but too focus on trying to win the small race they were having. Lowering her head as she galloped up to the library and passing it by trying to keep ahead of Moonlight.
Moonlight heard some screaming by the library but was too focused on trying to win so he decided to come back and check it out after he won. Moonlight finally catches up to Rigor and wink in the split second it took to pass her by and saluted. "See ya at the finish".
Rigor looked up seeing Moonlight's taunting wink before he sped off, she kept running as fast as her four legs can carry her. "Horse feathers..." she muttered though even though she hated losing she was having fun.
Moonlight finally came to a halt at the funeral home and waits on Rigor to get there while thinking of the yelling he had heard at the library.
Vanguard started to feel a little better and slowed down hoping that he was safe where he was he sat down for a second " Just because i can see some of my next moves in the game and the cards talk to me so many want to know about this power, I just wanna play the game and have fun why does my psyqualia interest them and cause me trouble i am so different when it activates."
Rigor ran up to the funeral home and slowed herself to a trot before she stopped in front of Moonlight, shaking her head, "You really are fast." She turned and looked behind her were she heard all the yelling, "Well, that was fun. Though I think we missed something interesting in the middle of our race."
Elluka puts her hoof up to her ear I want two ponies to follow me 1 by air the other in stealth she walks around the town square
"Thats true..maybe we should go back and find out what happened dont'cha think"
Rigor nodded as she turned around, her breathing a bit heavy but returning to it's normal tempo. She headed towards the library, "I swear wings are cheating."
Vanguard Noticed somepony up ahead and was still a little dazed from Twilight trying to put him in a scenario that would activate his Psyqualia. "that pony needs to know everything about everything doesn't she i respect it but i really don't think if she understands it that she could harness or even control this power."
"Funny thing about that. I wasnt gonna use my wings until you took that head start". Moonlight said chuckling and following her.
"Sure you weren't," smirking before her eyes landed on a pony they were walking towards, "Do you think that was one of the yelling ponies?"
"I really wasnt". Moonlight forward and sees the pony. "Yeah i think it is. Lets go see if he is alright". He starts trotting to get there faster in case he plans to leave.
Rigor followed behind trotting to keep up with Moonlight, staring at stallion before them. "Hello?" she spoke up to see if she could get his attention, he seemed a bit out of it.
Moonlight gently tapped his shoulder to try and get his attention.
Vanguard shakes his head trying to snap out of his daze He responds ," hello"
"Hi. Im Moonlight Gamer and this is Rigor Mortis. We heard screaming at the library and came to see if everything is alright".
Rigor stared at Vangaurd for a moment, she didn't notice any injuries or anything out of place at all.
"Hi my name is Vanguard Squared yea about that you see I have this power that makes it so i can hear the voices of my cards when i play and sometimes it helps and sometimes it gets me into trouble and also The Pony I am rooming with for now wants to study it and its effects on me." He looks up and uses his horn to levitate his deck box out of his pack. " this game is so fun but it has caused me some trouble recently."
"Rooming with Twilight would be hard especially with a talent like that but its pretty cool that you can do that. Other than Twi being in 'I need to find out how its done' mode why did you say it causes you trouble?"
She blinked for a moment and looked at the cards, thinking to herself how strange unicorns were being able to talk to inanimate objects. Her mind briefly wandered to what her tools would say to her if she could hear them. Rigor shook herself out of that thought, "Well, wouldn't it be considered cheating? I mean being able to know what cards other ponies where holding. I'm sure some ponies wouldn't take kindly to that."
" I am usually a very kind and sorta ( :P )derpy pony but when Psyqualia hits i feel different like it's not me or something I get a little more agressive and I don't like it at all in the middle of a game i can go from really nice to being kinda mean talking about something called and Image of Victory. I just hope this has a purpose I have heard of a place called Craequestria. It is supposedly where the Ponies on my cards are from. and it is kinda like cheating but most of the time I can't control when it activates if i could activate it at will I would use it like if it was an impotant game I would use the ability to help me build my deck and such and maybe help me play the right card in a tough spot but I can't control it myself."
"Well maybe thats why Twi was acting the way she was..maybe she just wanted to help..in her own way i guess". Moonlight said eyeballing the deck of cards.
Rigor thought about it, "Strange game if it does all that." "Though as Moonlight said, Twilight Sparkle must have her reasons for acting that way. She may be worried how such a thing will effect Ponyville," she smirked and gave a small laugh, "Or she doesn't like that there is something that she doesn't understand."
"I have played many Ponies and I have been the only one with this power that i know of nobody else that i know has it." Vanguard puts his cards back in his pack. " so it's not the cards and this power only activates in two scenarios one is when i am in a very tense point in the game which sometimes i don't mind but it's the other one that bothers me..."
"Whats the other one?" Moonlight said with a confused look.
Rigor listened closely, after all if it was dangerous she was sure that the unicorn Twilight wouldn't have let him leave her library. That pony and her friends tended to take care of all the interesting and dangerous things in the town.
"when i am in the middle of battle and it just sparks up it's like I black out or something and 'the other me ' takes over"
"Other you?" Moonlight looks even more confused. "What do you mean other you?"
"The more aggressive me , The one that usually makes other ponies concerned while playing me, you see be for this power started about a couple months ago I could play and have fun with it but now it's like there is a reason for me playing and like the cards need my decisons or something and i am the part that is too shy to act."
"Maybe we should try to get this figured out then especially if its that bad." Moonlight said with a concerned look.
She tilted her head at that, she didn't want to seem rude but she was wondering if he had some sort of multiple personality disorder. Rigor's tail swished slightly, "I know this will sound terrible.. Have you seen a doctor about it? Perhaps there is another person? I'm not sure how magic works but could you be possessed?"
Moonlight looked at Rigor sorta like he was saying thats impossible.
" as i said it's not that bad when deck building it's like hanging out with friends thought they are from another world and that is Probably also why Twi is so Interested you know like when she reads her books. and yes i have seen a DOCTOR but he says I am okay just some unexplained Wibbly wobbly in my mind.
Moonlight starts tolook really concerned at this point and looks at Rigor for an answer.
"I guess if i have friends around it won't be so bad i could control my Psyqualia a little when one of my Friends Divine Spektrum was around"
Rigor did her best to mask the look of concern on her face, giving a smile, "I'm sure both the Doctor and Twilight know what they are doing. If they say it's nothing to worry about." Though her mind was the opposite of her words, she was just debating if it was multiple personalities or another pony entirely.
(( Alright gents. I'm afraid I need to go to bed. I have to get up at 4:30 am to go to my classes. I wont be on too much tomorrow. You two have fun and you can either have my pony around or send her home. Which ever you wish. ))
"Well we could be your friends if you want..thats totally up to you"
((Im getting kinda sleepy myself so im gonna head off to bed too))
Spektrum, A thin ragged pegasus, would slowly trot within the town known as "ponyville" her bright yellow eyes scouting the area as her wings hung low, small rotted feathers falling to the floor as her wide sharp-tooth grin would curl from ear to ear.
Moonlight sees the new pony..to him..trotting thru town and decided to go meet and greet. He lands in front of her. "Hi!"
((pfft who needs sleep))
" . . . . . . . . . " Spektrum would stare down the approaching colt, her two different sized pupils shaking as her wings fanned out, trying to look stern as she began to snort.
(( Heeheee... five am... gonna have to start driving soon... ovO Side note Divine Spektrum, your picture is very pretty. I'm jealous of your drawing skills. ))
Rigor nodded and gave a pleasant smile, "As Moonlight said we would like to be your friend."
(( Since I'm going to be at long 3-4 hour classes today I'll have my character be at her work so she isn't in anyone's way. ))
Rigor swished her tail as she stared at the pony she was supposed to transport, staring at the rather large unknown earth pony male who was foolish enough to wander into the Everfree forest at night. She stood there as she spoke to those who found him and was filling out some paperwork until the ponies in charge of contacting other towns and keeping track of every pony in Ponyville could get there and let her know she can take him.

" . . . . . . . . . " Spektrum would stare down the approaching colt, her two different sized pupils shaking as her wings fanned out, trying to look stern as she began to snort.
"Um why are you just glaring daggers at me?..i-is there something on my face?" Moonlight said with a confused look.
(( Got a little less than an hour for my first class. ))
Rigor Mortis spoke to the couple of ponies that came out to investigate, giving them a bored look as they take pictures and make notes about the body. After they were done and told her it would be alright for her to claim the stallion she trotted to get her wagon and moved it beside the body so she wouldn't have to lift the heavy male too much.
((school comes before rping. everyone knows that lol oh and im just finishing up some freelance work so im basically on my own at the moment too))
Moonlight started trotting down the lane after finishing some freelance work at Sugarcube Corner. "Ugh I hate when Pinkie puts so much sugar in those cupcakes". Moonlight notices Rigor in the distance at the funeral home. "Well at least somepony is working hard I see".
(( Yeah but I feel bad a lot of rps started and I am falling behind. O: Oh well. I only have one more class coming up and lucky me it's cadaver day! ovO ))
Rigor panted slightly as she stood next to her wagon having gotten the large stallion in it and secure. Walking to the front of the wagon as she hitched herself up and walked to the funeral home. Taking her time since she wasn't looking forward to moving the large male again.
Moonlight takes to the sky so he doesnt bump into the hardworking mare.
((Just catch up when you can thats all))
(( Of course. I wouldn't mess up my classes. ))
She stopped the wagon in the back of the funeral home as she unhitched herself. Rigor trotted towards the back of the wagon before stretching her back muscles and getting ready to pick up the large stallion.
((i dont think anyone would want to))
Moonlight found a drifting cloud and decided to take a nap for the day.
She moved and hoisted the body on her back, giving a groan as she walked carefully into the funeral home. Rigor was slow and very careful, she didn't want to cause more injuries to the body she would just have to repair, nor did she want to hurt herself again.
Moonlight laid on the drifting cloud passed out while snoring lightly.
She panted heavily as she got to the embalming table, jumping up to buck the large stallion onto it. Rigor collapsed to the ground as she took a few breaths, eventually standing up and on her hind legs. She moved the body into proper position and taking care to make sure she was setting each limb properly after massaging the muscles that already set in.
Elluka walks around wearing her cloak and her hood is up
Moonlight finally wakes up and wonders how long he was napping.
Elluka walks under Moonlight ((Guessing you are still on the cloud))
((Yea im still on the cloud))
Moonlight stretch and looks over the edge of the cloud to see if anypony was passing by.
Elluka looks around and takes off her hood and cloak
Art by Teal Turken

Moonlight looks at the unhooded pony. "Who is that pony"
she looks up and sees Moonloght her eyes go wide and she scowls she mutters something and her hooves glow
Moonlight eyes widen. "Uh oh..i think i saw something i shouldnt have..time to fly" Moonlight flares his wings and attempts to take off.
Moonlight starts to glow he is slowly pulled down to Elluka
Moonlight prays to Celesta that he doesnt get blown up or something horrible along those lines.
Moonloght is held upside down infront of Elluka who is staring into his eyes who are you and how long have you been following me and who do you work for do not lie to me I will know
FlareBolt is out walking with his little sister, Solar Flicker.
"Today seems to be a bit quiet, huh?" She asked.
"Yeah, today seems to be a bit slow, nothing is going on. Although, that's a good thing." FlareBolt answered her.
"I was just napping on that cloud up there and recently woke up and i dont work for anyone suspicious if thats what you mean" he said his voice sounding a bit shakey.
Does the name Irrina Clockworker ring a bell
Moonlight shakes his head no.
"So, you wrote your letter to mother this month, haven't you?" Solar Flicker asks as they walk.
"Yeah, wrote it yesterday, she said she got a new job after being fired as a factory worker. She says she works at a restaurant now." FlareBolt informs her.
Elluka puts Moonloght down I am terribly sorry about that I am just very nervous right now
"You dont say" he says shaking the fear he had out of his system.
yes I can't trust just Anypony now again I am sorry
"She isn't doing the best lately, shouldn't we help her?" she asked.
"She couldn't help us, so we can't help her, I know I should, but I am still angry at her." FlareBolt said with an unsure face.
"Its okay..you had a perfectly good reason too"
FlareBolt sees two ponies in the distance, they are alone.
"C'mon Flicker, this may be something..." FlareBolt whispered, staying quiet, he listened as Solar Flicker followed.
I am Elluka Clockworker I am part of a militia that is located in the Everfree forest and is funded by your and the Evillious leaders
"I see..wait theres a militia in the Everfree"
"a Militia? In the Everfree forest?" Solar Flicker asks quietly.
"shh, we will find out." FlareBolt whispered.
yes for three years now it was created after the rebirth of the current leaders Flame and Ice
Moonlight's earflicks a bit hearing something close by buy shrugs it off. "I see..wait created you mean your an artificial being?"
*Hmm... Flame and Ice huh? Multiple possibilities could occur from these names... Three years? and an artificial being? Is that possible?* FlareBolt thinks.
Moonlight's ear flicks again. "Im sure i heard something close by that time" he said while scanning the area behind him.
"Flicker, If I say run, you better run, alright?" FlareBolt whispered, having a bad feeling.
she nodded
Moonlight having his suspicions checks the area by taking to the sky.
"Follow me." FlareBolt whispered to Flicker as they try to find a hiding spot.
Moonlight scans the wide area checking for even the smallest movement.
They find a tree to hide under.
"Now stay still." FlareBolt whispered, fearing the worst as she nods.
Elluka takes out a device she holds it up and it sends a earpirceing sound to Anypony not visible to her
The sound was terrible, he was able to keep his mouth shut, but Solar Flicker wasn't as lucky, she screamed with pain.
Moonlight hears the scream and waits for them to show themselves.
Elluka presses a button and it stops well it appears Somepony else has been listening to our conversation
"I figured and i think there is more than one" he said while landing.
FlareBolt comes out.
"Look, do whatever you want to me, just don't hurt Solar Flicker." He said.
well what are your names who do you work for and does the name Irina Clockworker sound familiar do not lie I know
"My name is FlareBolt, and she is my little sister, Solar Flicker, I am self-employed, and I have never heard that name before." FlareBolt says.
they are not lying so they are clear why were you listening to our talk
"Well, my occupation is an adventurer, so I was looking for a job, I saw you two and thought this looked suspicious..." FlareBolt said.
Moonlight only stands there letting her do her interrogation of the siblings.
(Brother and sister)
hm a job are you good at CQC or with a weapon
"More with a weapon, but I am willing to help however I can." FlareBolt answered.
Moonlight stands up. "What kind of weapon?"
"Well, I prefer the sword, but I can use others If necessary." FlareBolt answered.
"Cool"
If you want I could hire you
"Alright, that would be great, how can I be of assistance?" FlareBolt asked as Solar Flicker came out slowly.
well as you heard we are part of a milita and we need members
Moonlight flies up to your sister. "Hi. Im Moonlight Gamer but you can call me Moonlight."
"So, you want me to join?" FlareBolt asked
"I'm Solar Flicker, It's nice to meet you! I know my brother said he is an adventurer, but he is more than that, he is a hero!" Solar Flicker said.
yes we need members for it and please if you accept come closer so I can give you what you need and tell you everything
"You must really look up to him huh"
"Alright, Solar Flicker, stay there." FlareBolt said, walking towards her.
"Well, yes, but he really is a hero! He saves live and everything!" Solar Flicker said.
Elluka pulls out a gas mask, a blade and a cloak she gives them to FlareBolt
Moonlight looks at FlareBolt. "I see."
"What is this?" FlareBolt asks as he acquires the items.
"I would hope so, what are you thinking about?" Solar Flicker asks.
"Nothing..just hoping i can see him in action"
"Yeah, I haven't seen much since he never lets me come, he says it's for my protection, but he is over-protective." Solar Flicker said.
"Well he just cares thats all"
"He wasn't nearly this protective when we lived with mother, he was too busy working to support us though, so he couldn't I guess." Solar Flicker said.
"If you dont mind me asking where is your mother?"
it is what our members wear to hide themselfves
"Like a uniform? Or maybe camouflage? Never mind, what is it I must do?" FlareBolt asked.
"She is in Cloudsdale, but we never visit. FlareBolt sends a letter every month to ensure her that he is alive." Solar Flicker answered.
"I see..why dont you go vist her, im sure would like to see yall again at least once"
Follow me she starts walking
FlareBolt follows her, not sure what he is going to find out.
"Stay out of trouble Flicker!" FlareBolt shouts.
"Alright! Brother won't take me, he has something against her. Something about neglecting her responsibilities as a mother." Solar Flicker responded.
"Cmon Flicker..you dont mind if i call you Flicker do you..we can walk and talk."
"No, I don't mind! What do you want to talk about?" She asked.
After walking into the Everfree and down some paths they come to a building next to a graveyard
"Well we can talk about your brother if you want" Moonlight said cheerfully while hovering off the ground slightly without noticing. "Does he always think your gonna get into trouble?"
*A bit creepy, but after being in this place after a few times makes it less so...* FlareBolt thought.
"Probably not, but he likes to remind me, as I said, he is over-protective of me." Solar Flicker responded.
"I can tell" he said blankly. "So you hungry maybe we can go grab a bite my treat of course"
"Sounds good!" Solar Flicker said as her stomach growls.
This is will you will be working you can either moveing here with one other or stay at your current resident
"I must stay with my sister, she needs me." FlareBolt said.
"Cool follow me" Moonlight said trotting slowly ahead.
Solar Flicker follows closely behind.
(( Finally home... granted class was amazing and I got to hold a brain and the top half of a skull but it's late as anything and the drive home wasn't fun. Just caught up on what you all are doing. ))
Rigor groaned, she was finally done. She had spent hours trying to get the stallion to look just right, with all his injuries it proved to be a challenge. She went outside to enjoy some cool night air before collapsing on the green grass of the graveyard near the funeral home to rest.
Ok anything is fine just as long as you try to show up on time when we call for you
"Don't worry, I will be able to do that." FlareBolt said
Moonlight stops one of the few fancy eateries in ponyville. "Okay were here" Moonlight walks up to the waiter at the stand "The usual table please"
Solar Flicker follows Moonlight into the restaurant.
"You have your own table?" She asked.
"Yup im a regular here..the food is great and the owner owes me for helping him with a delivery that only i could deliver" he says sitting at the table "The usual for me and what would you like..order anything you want its on me"
"Umm... a Daisy Sandwich would be nice." Solar Flicker said with a smile.
"You heard her" he said and the waiter bows slightly and goes to the kitchen. Moonlight looks around. "Must be a slow day here"
"Is it usually like this?" Solar Flicker asked.
"Nah..usually its packed" Moonlight looked at Flicker "Out of curiosity how old are you and your brother"
"I'm eleven and my brother is eighteen." Solar Flicker answered.
Moonlight was shocked at those answers. "What have you two been doing since you left home?" The waiter puts my salad and your sandwich on the table then bows again n walks away
"Well, my brother usually goes off adventuring and sometimes does some work with the weather ponies. I don't do anything, I usually walk around town, or stay at home. We left about a year ago." Solar Flicker answered.
"So both of you have been wandering around before your brother was even legally able to watch over you" he said taking a bite of his salad "Thats amazing"
"Yeah, he was ready to leave Cloudsdale, he always wanted adventure. But something tells me it was also because of mother..." Solar Flicker said as she took a bite of her food.
would you like a tour or would you like to head back now
"It would be good to get familiar with this place, lets take that tour." FlareBolt said.
"I see." Moonlight took another bite of his salad "How is it"
"It's very good, who is the cook?" Solar Flicker asked.
Rigor carefully moved to enjoy the feel of the grass below her as she sat on the grave. Closing her eyes a moment to enjoy the breeze, not only taking the time to relax but to think what she should cook for herself to eat. Even though her cooking would send the weakest of stomachs to the same patch she was laying on.
Elluka nods there are statues infront of the door she takes out a clock-blade and stabs it into the ground the statues break away she walks in
FlareBolt follows
*How... how did that work?* he thought.
"Well actually its my recipe" he said taking another bite of his salad "I supply this place with new recipes and things"
"Oh! That's really cool! Do you get paid any for your ideas?" Solar Flicker asked.
The entrance room is a giant room with a judge seat at the very front explore as much as you want but if you try to destroy the statues without one of us leaders they will appear
"I get paid for everything i do around this town during the day" He said finishing his salad "Thats was good..im glad he stuck to the recipe"
"Thanks." FlareBolt said, looking around.
Solar Flicker finishes up her sandwich.
"What do you do?" she asked.
Forcing herself up she trotted to go back into her funeral home to cook herself something to eat before bed.
(( Welp. Bed time for me. I have bio lab tomorrow in the morning. Night everyone/pony! ))
"Im a freelancer and I run the only and best video game store in all of ponyville" he said proudly. "Wanna go see it?"
"Yeah, I could probably see if there are any to get for when my brother goes off." Solar Flicker said.
"Alright then lets go" Moonlight leaves the right amount of bits and a generous tip on the table and starts walking toward his store.
Solar Flicker followed Moonlight.
"So do you have any family?" she asked.
just come see me when you are ready to leave
"Alright, I'll see you later." FlareBolt said and began to wander around, he looked around the room, analyzing everything.
"No actually im an only child i wish i had a younger sibling though" Moonlight stops in front of his store that has game controller over the door. "Here we are"
Solar Flicker looked around the store to see different video games.
"Wow, you have a large selection." she commented.
"Yup every console and every game you see in here is made by me after studying the original and making break away adaptations" Moonlight went behind to counter to check the register "Oh and if you see anything like its yours..just consider it a present from me."
"Really?! Wow, thanks!" Solar Flicker said as her face brightened.
(I'm sorry, I have to get some sleep, see you guys later.)
"Anytime" he said with a smile on his face.
(( same here im getting kinda sleepy myself))
Solar Flicker looks around at all the different games and consoles.
"What do you recommend?" She asked, not knowing what to get.
"Honestly I recommend them all but im not sure what you like or if you have even played any before..have you?" Moonlight says going into the back.
FlareBolt continued to wander around the strange place. He looked at the things that that one mare gave him.
*What is her name again... I swore I heard her say it...* FlareBolt though, trying on the gear.
"No, I have never played a video game before..." Solar Flicker answered
Moonlight thought about that for a second. "Well come on back and ill show you a personal favorite of mine"
FlareBolt looked at the blade he was given, it was well-crafted.
*Obviously, these ponies are serious about whatever they are trying to accomplish. It would be nice to speak to the leader, or leaders. I may be mistaken, but sounds like Flame and Ice may be the leaders... If they are ponies that is...* he thought.
Solar Flicker smiled and followed Moonlight.
"Its called Colt of Duty and keep it mind it is a little violent but im sure you can handle it..now go on and try it out" Moonlight said while standing by the door. "If you need me ill be in the front fixing up some things..oh and keep the difficulty below Hardened, trust me its not something new ponies can just jump into without knowing" he said then goes back to the front of the store.
*I could use... yeah, why not.* FlareBolt thinks and starts to focus on the topic at hand.
*Alright... this is what happened...* He thought.
*Elluka: I am Elluka Clockworker I am part of a militia that is located in the Everfree forest and is funded by your and the Evillious leaders.
Moonlight: I see..wait theres a militia in the Everfree?
Elluka: yes for three years now it was created after the rebirth of the current leaders Flame and Ice.*
FlareBolt takes a deep breath, stopping the memory.
*Yes... I see. Her name is Elluka Clockworker, and I was correct, the leaders are Flame and Ice, there are two of them, apparently the died before... their rebirth... I need to investigate this...* He thought.
"Alright."Solar Flickersaid as she started the game, she wasn't very good at it in the beginning, but she got the hang of it.
A door infront of FlareBolt is cracked open there is a beam of Light from the crack
"How you doing back there?" he said so Flicker could hear.
FlareBolt looked up to see the cracked door.
*Hmm... lets check this out...* FlareBolt thought as he pulled the door open further and entered the room.
"I'm alive so far!" Solar Flicker said, as she finished an enemy off.
it opens to a torch lit room there is a flight of stairs in the center going down and a stone slab with 5 orbs in it
*I should inspect these orbs before continuing...* FlareBolt thought, getting a better look at them.
Moonlight finishes up front and goes to the back. "Wanna try a different game?..I call it Luna's Creed" Moonlight said searching for it and finding it. "Its about Luna becoming an assassin who takes out her enemies during the night in which she controls."
"Sounds fun, lets try it!" Solar Flicker says.
the colors are yellow purple pink red and green there are two other slots where orbs would fit
Moonlight puts the game in the console and lets it start up.
*Either they are looking for people to wield these orbs, that is if they actually have any power. Or they are collecting them to accomplish something... I better continue.* FlareBolt thought as he went down the stairs.
"Thanks!" Solar Flicker said with a smile.
"No problem" he said while smiling back at Flicker.
you enter another room with 8 items on a table
*Huh... this seems suspicious... what are these?* FlareBolt thought as he started to analyze them.
Solar Flicker started the game, getting better at using the controller in general.
"Your adapting to the controller really well..makes me all teary eyed with joy" he said in a fake sad voice while pretending to wipe away fake tears.
there are 4 mirrors, a sword with runes on it, a wine glass, a pair of scissors, and a doll of a human girl
*This... this doesn't make any sense... what would they do with these... I need more answers, but if people knew I was snooping around... Well, I don't even know if this area is restricted or not. Maybe there is something special the leaders see in these... I dunno, all that looks good to me is that sword. I'm not going to find anything by standing around.* FlareBolt thought.
Solar Flicker smiled at Moonlight's comment "Thanks!" She said.
"I wonder what her brother is up to.." he thought.
Voices can be heard but it can't be made out what they are saying
FlareBolt followed the sound of the voice, trying to get into ear-shot to understand their words.
Solar Flicker continues to play the game.
Moonlight continues to watch Flicker play. "Shes really good" he thought
it leads you to the entrance and can be heard near the judge seat so who did you hire Elluka a pony asks I am not aware of his name yet but trust me Flame we can trust him
*It's Elluka and Flame... should I come out and risk being punished for going into a possible restricted area? Are they entering this room? Hmm... I've always learned more from staying back and observing... I may want to keep it that way. Elluka said I can be trusted, does that mean I should come out...?* FlareBolt thought, not sure what to do, which actually didn't happen often.
Solar Flicker manages to kill one of her targets, she has an excited look on her face.
"Im glad your enjoying it" he said looking for his personal controller.
FlareBolt desides to exit the room an reveal himself.
*What's the harm? The door opened on it's own, by instinct I entered. Besides, it didn't work very well last time...* FlareBolt thought.
"Yeah! Could I get a copy of this game?" Solar Flicker asked
"Of course..by the way wanna try and play Colt of Duty against me?" he said flashing his custom made platinum controller.
"Sure! Sounds fun."Solar Flicker said
Moonlight puts the game in, it starts up and he chooses multiplayer. "Alright..just presses start and we can start"
"Alright, you're going down!" Solar Flicker said with a playful voice as she pushed start.
and there he is Elluka says Flame looks at him so you are the new recruit huh
Moonlight smiles widely. "Overconfidence is a mild poison" he said while chuckling a bit then chooses his favorite class.
"Yes, I am FlareBolt, and you are?" FlareBolt asked to be polite.
*They probably already know that I know who they are...* FlareBolt thought.
Solar Flicker chooses one of the default classes.
"Not when you understand how skilled you are." she said.
Moonlight laugh as bit. "You have a point but.." Moonlight gets first blood with his sniper. "..Im may be more skilled than you."
I am Flame me and my sister Ice are the leaders of this if Elluka didn't tell you already
"It's a pleasure to meet you, and, what exactly is this? I still haven't been informed to exactly what we are trying to accomplish..." FlareBolt asked.
*I suppose you could say she told me indirectly..* FlareBolt thought.
"Yeah, you're right."Solar Flicker said, beginning to shoot at Moonlight's character.
Moonlight sneaks around and knives you from behind.
"So, what about your parents? You said you don't have any siblings..."Solar Flicker said as she re-spawned.
We wish to achieve our wish of world peace
"They live mom lives and works as a nurse in Cloudsdale and my dad works in Canterlot..they're still together but work in different places." Moonlight snipes you again. "I moved to Ponyville when i turned 18 and started this store with my allowance and here i am today."
"World Peace? In what way?" FlareBolt asked.
*It would be a pleasure to bring true World Peace, but some people might have crazy idea's in doing so, lets find out how before I get excited...* He thought.
"Oh, My father is dead, as I told you, my mother is up in Cloudsdale as a waitress." Solar Flicker said.
"I see." Moonlight said getting the final kill. "Well that was fun..you Flicker are a worthy opponent..nopony has every gotten more than 5 kills on me especially first timers so for that i commend you and give you this console free." he said while motioning to the console they were playing on.
"Really? Wow, you are very generous." Solar Flicker said with a smile.
"Of course..when i was young i was the only one who had these types of things so i wanted to let all the other fillies and colts give them a try so i mass produced everything on my own and started selling them here in Ponyville" Moonlight said with a smile.
"Wow... that's like, kinda like of my brother... he had nothing, but wanted everyone else to be happy." Solar Flicker said.
Rigor struggled a bit as she tried to pull up some socks over her hooves, eventually giving up on them and kicking them aside with her hind hoof. "Honestly, sometimes I wonder if that pony at the boutique even makes clothing that is possible for those who aren't unicorns to put on," she gave up on clothes and left her funeral home for a walk.
"I hadn't noticed but we are kinda a lot alike"
"Speaking of which... he should probably be back by now... I wonder where he is..." Solar Flicker said.
"Your right..lets go look for him and dont forgot your gifts" he said walking up to the front of the store.
"Alright." Solar Flicker said, placing her gifts in her bag and exiting the store.
well as I saw you come out of that room you saw the 5 orbs and the 8 items each item is to a orb the four mirrors to yellow the scissors to pink the glass to red and the doll to green and the sword to purple when all 7 orbs and the last two items are found it allows the user to use them to either bring destruction or peace upon the world
"Interesting... so... perfect peace if I can help find those i could..." FlareBolt went lost into thought.
*I could help fulfill Solar Flicker's wish with the world being a more gentle place...* he thought. He snapped out of it.
"How can I help?" FlareBolt asked.
Well until we find the location of the holder of the last two we cannot do anything we been following her for 2 years and we still can't find her base
Moonlight walks out after turning the lights off and starts walking down the road.
"I'm guessing there is another group who want's the orbs for the opposite reason who has the other two?" FlareBolt guessed.
Solar Flicker follows Moonlight.
Moonlight starts to hover unknowingly and goes back the way we came hoping it would lead us to FlareBolt.
"Last I noticed, FlareBolt was headed towards the Everfree Forest with that other mare." Solar Flicker said, as she continues to follow Moonlight.
"You're right..then to the Everfree we go" Moonlight then thought of a catchy tune "Hi ho, hi ho its off to the Everfree we go" he says in a sing-songy tone while smiling
Correct actually Elluka here has connections to her Flame turns to Elluka yes you see she was my soon to be sister in law her brother was my fiancé but somethings caused us to go into a war causeing our country to burn to the ground and her brother to lose sanity your leader's soldiers found her base and attended to take her in but she some how took over their minds so that's why we have the gas mask and cloak to hide our identities from her
"So our current objective is to find their head quarters, seeing how you haven't done that in three years, it won't be easy." FlareBolt said.
(I have to go, sorry...)
-her medical condition would allow her to fall asleep at any given time, waking up 3 days later, she would look around one again-
[thanks so much Ms. Rigger ^^ ]
(( You are very welcome. :D ))
Rigor stood there with the tray on her head, giving a sigh trying to find some pony to test her cupcakes on. She really wanted to get good at baking by Nightmare Night. Her cooking skills needed help, even though she could eat her cooking other ponies tended to run from it.
((ill join i with yours since Flare wasnt on today. just pass by or something. idk))
Moonlight was in a field attacking a tree with his keyblade hoping to learn some new combos or attacks.
As Rigor walked she noticed Moonlight, giving a smile as she drew close to him. Watching him with curiosity as he attacked the tree with an overlarge key, "What in Celestia's sake are you doing to that tree?"
Moonlight jumped at the familiar but sudden voice. "Oh its you Rigor..I was just training"
"Training with a giant key?" she asked curiously though she didn't dare tilt her head and knock all her cupcakes to the ground. Trotting close enough to watch him but not to be in the way of the large key.
"Its not just some giant key..its called a keyblade and i just recently acquired it so im teaching myself how to use it"
"I see," she said looking at it, "So it's like a sword in the shape of a key. That's different."
"I know right" Moonlight sees the tray on her head. "Why is that tray on your head?
She smiled, "I made cupcakes!" Beaming proudly to finally make something that didn't catch on fire for once, "I'm trying to get ready to make ones that others will eat by Nightmare Night. Would you like to try one?"
"Sure" he said putting his new blade away.
Rigor smiled brightly and used her hoof to take the tray off her head and hold it out for Moonlight. The pink frosted cupcakes with the frosting in the shape of a brain. Underneath the bright pink frosting held a cupcake dark brown almost black. Her tailed wished side to side, excited, "I thought they tasted alright but my taste doesn't mean anything since I eat my own cooking all the time."
Moonlight took a bite then looked at Rigor and swallowed. "I wont lie to you Rigor since i respect you but that wasnt all that great" he said hoping not to hurt the mare's feelings.
Rigor's ears flattened against her head, "Oh, no that's okay. I'm glad you were honest." She lowered the tray to the ground and looked at the cupcakes giving a sigh, "Though that does explain why I couldn't even get any animals to try them."
"If you want i can help you make a new batch" he said in a very sincere tone.
Rigor looked at him sadly, "This was the only batch I made without catching it on fire." She gave a sigh, "Well, if you aren't too busy I would love the help."
(( Sorry my computer restarted... and it's stupid vista.. ))
"I dont wanna ask" he said before his curiosity peaked. "Lead the way"
(Its fine))
Picking up the tray and putting it on her head as she trotted towards the funeral home. "Alright, I'll need to toss these properly anyway."
Moonlight takes the tray and eats them.
Rigor blinked at the pegasus, "I thought they didn't taste good?" She colored a bit under her coat as she carried the tray on her head, "You didn't have to do that. I was going to see if my pet worms would eat them."
"Well its the first time i tried a mare's cooking other than my mom's so plus they were hand made by you which makes em special enough to devour" he said walking ahead.
Rigor smiled at that following him, muttering softly, "Gentlecolt..." She trotted up beside him, "Well, I suppose I owe you a good drink to wash down some of the worst cupcakes you've eaten."
"Ill be fine" he said smiling.
Rigor opened the door to the funeral home for him to follow after her. She trotted to the left past the entrance and to where she actually lived properly, walking towards the kitchen. "That's good, I would hate to think I made you sick."
Moonlight walks in after and closes the door. "Wow ive never been in here before" he said walking into the kitchen.
"Well, usually other ponies only see the first room with all the coffins and wall of gravestone styles. To the right and the back door leads towards the refrigeration room and embalming room. The left wing of the place is where I live and I think it looks like a normal pony home," she said as she put the tray in the sink and went to get out a clean one and clean bowl.
Moonlight washes his hooves. "Alright so what did you use to make the last batch?"
"Chocolate, sugar, eggs, vanilla, and," she trailed off getting her recipe book and putting it on the table, "Whatever the book said to do." Going over to wash her hooves carefully.
Moonlight looked thru the book carefully then closes it immediately. "Alright lets get started"
"Oh and I put in pumpkin!" she grinned as she went to get one of her small sugar pumpkins, "What's Nightmare Night without pumpkin?"
"You dont put pumpkin in cupcakes Rigor" he says laughing. "You put it in the frosting" he said showing her the recipe for pumpkin flavored frosting.
She frowned, "Well, since there is pumpkin chocolate chip cookies I figured it worked the same with cupcakes." She looked at the frosting recipe, "Maybe that's what I've been doing wrong."
(( BTW Pumpkin chocolate chip cookies are the greatest thing ever created. :P ))
((They sound delicious O: but ive never tried any before :c))
"Why dont you try making them again and ill supervise" he said leaning against the counter.
(( Do you live anywhere near a costco? That's where I tried them at a free sample area.. then I bought a tub of the dough. Though I'm sure around Halloween they will appear in other places. ))
"Okay!" she said with a grin reaching for the bowl as she cracked open the egg shells and put the yolks and whites in the bowl as she reached for the flour.
((I used to but not anymore sadly))
Moonlight watched her carefully.
Rigor's cheeks colored a bit under her coat as she reached for chocolate chips, vanilla, and some baking soda in silence.
Moonlight swished his scythe-like tail while watching without saying a word.
She was getting nervous about the silence as she reached for various other ingredients that were said in the book as she put it in a bowl. Eventually stirring after she got all the ingredients in the bowl.
"Not to fast but not to slow" he said walking up to her. "Like this" he took her hooves in his and started stirring at a medium speed.
Rigor went as stiff as her name for a moment, giving a nervous laugh as he helped her stir the batter. "I.. I see.."
"Now all thats left is to pour it in the tray and bake it" he said leaning on the counter again.
"Right!" she said as she picked up the edge of the bowl with her teeth and tipped it carefully and neatly into the pan filling up the tray. She gave a grin and went to put them into the oven and shut it, "Next is just to heat and wait."
"Not to high or theyll burn" he said turning the heat down a bit. Moonlight sets a cooking timer and goes to the living room. "How about a tour while we wait?"
She froze for a second at the idea of them not watching the cupcakes, "Are you sure it's safe to leave them alone?" Moving her hoof slightly as she stared at the cupcakes with a suspicious look.
"Its fine. Ive cooked my share of cupcakes before" he says then sits on the couch.
Rigor followed him but stopped just about to leave the kitchen, looking back at the oven and putting her hoof near her eyes and then pointed her hoof at the oven. "I'm watching you cupcakes," she muttered before joining Moonlight in the living room. "So what would you like to see?"
"Whatever your willing to show" he said with a smile.
Rigor smiled, "Well let's start with the entrance then. So you can look at the coffins and various gravestones before we hit the freezer where I keep some "guests"."
"Alright then". Moonlight gets up and follows Rigor closely slight brushing up against her.
Rigor's body stiffened slightly as a nervous laugh escaped her and she moved to stand by a coffin. Touching it with her hoof, "Well, this is what ponies first see when they come here. Over in that corner," she pointed to the far left corner of the room that had a desk and soft seating around it, "is where I bring ponies to talk about what arrangements they want for their loved ones. I used to have a separate room but some ponies got lost and then saw something they considered traumatic as if they never saw a dead pony before."
Moonlight shakes his head. "Well it can;t be helped"
She nodded, "Which is why I moved it. Would you like to see the freezer next or the embalming room?"
"How about the embalming room next"
"Alrighty!" she beamed as she trotted ahead leaving the main room and down a hallway, walking to the last room as she pushed open the door. Rigor walked inside and waited for Moonlight before waving her hoof and saying, "This is where the magic is done so to speak."
Moonlight looks around. "Wow" he says smiling.
Rigor lightened up at that as she trotted to where she kept her tools and her twin motor pump which she caressed as if it was a lover or a child, "This.. is my prized possession. She cost me so many bits, but she was worth every last one."
"I can tell" he said chuckling a bit.
Her cheeks colored as she moved from her machine, "Well before I had to do it by hoof, she has save me so much time and energy." Trotting over to her metal table as she jumped on it, her tail swished as she looked around, "Well, it's not too exciting in here. Just tools and what not."
(( Okay, I need to go to bed. See ya tomorrow! ))
((Alright then. Good night))
"I see..well lets go back and check on those cupcakes now" Moonlight said as he makes his way back to the kitchen.
Rigor jumped off her metal table and trotted towards the kitchen where she could smell something burning. Her ears flattened a bit, Not again... she thought to herself.
Moonlight got to the kitchen first and luckily saved the cupcakes before being charred. "Whew that was close..hehe" he said with a smile while fanning awake the smell with his wings,
She smiled brightly, "They didn't catch on fire. " Going to the windows she opened them to help ease the smell out of the kitchen, "Thank you."
"Helps to have a fast friend dont you think" he said preparing the icing.
"Yes it does, also helps if that friend knows what he is doing," she responded as she leaned over the table watching him.
Moonlight ices the cupcakes carefully and evenly. "Done..wanna try one?" he said swinging his tail happily.
(( Sorry had a busy day. First shots at the doctors office, which turned into a long visit cus my mums blood pressure was high and what not. Once that was taken care of went and got a Doctor Whooves Belt, Derpy shirt, DJ Pon-3 Shirt (for my little sister), and two brony bracelets (with rainbow dash on them). Then school which was a challenge today. Apparently I missed the slenderman rp so I'm reading up what happened. I'm sad I missed it. D: ))
Rigor grinned brightly looking at the cupcakes, he tongue was out slightly as she licked around her mouth. "Oh yes!" she exclaimed without even having time to be embarrassed about her outburst as she grabbed a cupcake and ate it. "Mmm, these are amazing!"
^-^ "I think we are starting to understand your Psyqualia it seems to be like a transmission From your games Planet of Craequestria to your mind and the side effects of such seem to be that it alters your mood and or personality though it still seems to be you."

" It would be good while building the deck you know, like knowing your best soldiers in your army so you could take them to war instead of taking one who doesn't wanna go, but the down side is there really is no control you had to put me in a tight spot in that Cardfight that I couldn't get out of just so you could trigger it!"

Rigor grinned brightly looking at the cupcakes, he tongue was out slightly as she licked around her mouth. "Oh yes!" she exclaimed without even having time to be embarrassed about her outburst as she grabbed a cupcake and ate it. "Mmm, these are amazing!"
((wow sounds like you had a mildy rough day))
"Im glad to hear it" he said swishing his tail happily.
(( It had some fun parts. But yeah. Feel bad I missed a lot. ))
"Are you not going to take a bite?" she asked looking at him as she reached for a second one.
((glad to hear it and dont feel bad))
"Nah im just glad you like em" he said with a smile.
"Well, they are brilliant," finishing her second cupcake as she looked at him with frosting on her cheek. "So anything else you were curious about the funeral home? I'm not used to giving tours so I may have forgotten to show you something."
"Nope not that i know of anyway" he said wiping the frosting from her cheek with his tail. "Orange just clashes with my natural color dont you think" he said with a small grin on his face.
Rigor blinked and then busted up laughing as she looked at the frosting on his tail. "I don't know, I think it would look perfect on Nightmare Night. Maybe that can be your costume, we can cover you in it."
Moonlight starts laughing. "Then id need someone to help me get it off..sounds to me like your volunteering for the job if you ask me" he said teasingly.
Rigor laughed and smirked as she leaned close, "Oh I have a wonderful idea how to get it off." She went to the sink and put her hoof under the faucet aiming a stream of icy water at Moonlight's face, "How does an ice cold shower work?"
"Sounds like your aiming to keep me here in an unconventional way" he said blocking his face.
She stopped and blinked a bit, her face under her coat reddened along with the tips of her ears. She flattened them against her skull, "OH! Nononononononononono!" Laughing at the thought, "I wasn't even thinking of that!"
"Of course you werent..not that i mind" he said brushing his tail under her chin.
Rigor's body stiffened as he brushed his tail under her chin. She blinked several times as she felt her face grow hot, "I.. um.. you..." Unable to even form a sentence as she stared at him in disbelief.
Moonlight laughed. "Are you alright?"
It took her a moment before she let loose some nervous laughter, "Oh yes, quite alright. Perhaps I should move back so you can clean off your tail?"
Moonlight smirked. "Why dont you do it"
"I?" she asked as she stepped back slightly and then smirked. "Sure, one moment, close your eyes," she said as she trotted off to get something.
"I saw that smirk but alright" he thought to himself and closed his eyes.
She returned holding a bucket filled with ice water as she smirked around it before dumping it on Moonlight's rump and tail. "There, all clean."
Moonlights flank and tail shivered furiously. "Somehow i knew that was coming" he thought. "Do you have a towel i could use?"
Rigor smirked her flush having gone down, "Of course, come on and follow me." She lead the way towards a room and walked in shutting the door behind her so she could get to her closet where she had her thick dark colored towels.
Moonlight follows his flank still slightly freezing.
She turned and colored a bit as she shook her head and used her teeth to put some towels over his flank. "Sit," she commanded and pointed by a fireplace, "I'll get it ready and be careful! I don't want you flicking your tail and getting my bedroom all wet, it'll be a pain to clean later." She left the room to get some more logs for the fireplace.
Moonlight does as commanded and sits near the fireplace making sure not to drip water everywhere.
Rigor returned carrying three stacked logs on her back as she bucked them into the fireplace. Reaching on the mantle to get matches as she struck them with her hoof and set the logs on fire, turning to Moonlight as she sat next to him. "Sorry I made the water too cold for you," she muttered quietly.
Moonlight smiled. "Awww dont worry about it" he said with a sincere tone. "I actually knew it was gonna happen to be honest"
"Did you?" she asked, curious that she was so transparent. "Yet you still closed your eyes and let me do it?"
"Yup..i decided if it keeps me around a little longer why not let it happen" he said with a small smile.
Rigor became suddenly very interested in staring at the fire as she sat there. "If you just wanted to hang around you could just ask instead of having me nearly give you hypothermia," she muttered though her voice was light.
"I felt it more interesting this way"
She smirked and looked over at Moonlight, "Oh? Well you must be pretty tame if you think that's interesting."
Moonlight felt his tail was dry enough and took back its natural shape and wrapped it around Rigor unconsciously. "I dont know about tame" he said smiling a bit.
She didn't notice his tail at first, giving him a smirk at his words. "That's good, otherwise you would probably run crying at a few of my pranks," her short tail flickered as her cheeks colored feeling his tail as her own brushed his. Covering this she gave a bit of a laugh, "Or worse, if I jumped out on Nighmare Night to scare you."
"I may be an easy tease but i know how to take a good prank once in a while" he said keeping his tail where it is.
Rigor smiled at that and shifted her front hooves slightly, trying to keep her eyes on the fire in hopes her cheeks would cool down. "That's good," she said with a small laugh, "probably why we get along so well." She made a startled noise, "N-not that I'm suggesting or mean anything by.." She covered her face with her hoof and muttered about being a featherhead.
Moonlight chuckled at Rigor's obviously nervous response. "We do get along pretty well though so your not wrong about that"
She muttered, "Yeah.. keep laughing it up.." Rigor gave him a smirk, "It's a good thing though."
"Really now..why is that?" he said brushing his tail against her.
She stiffened slightly as the tips of her ears reddened and flattened a bit, "Well.. it's nice to have company with someone to can tolerate me and can speak back." Her short tail gave a small swish side to side, very aware of Moonlight's tail against her.
"Im sure..even the dead can only talk about so much" he said with a small small hoping the joke didnt seem cruel.
Rigor laughed at that, not finding any cruelty in it, "Most of what they talk about is what happened to them."
Moonlight only laughs and unknowingly slides Rigor closer to him with his tail.
"And even that is all body language!" she said as she busted into laughter, enjoying her own joke too much to notice she was much closer to him.
Moonlight laughs just as much as Rigor not knowing what he did.
Rigor took a few calming breaths from her laughter and looked over at Moonlight, finding him seeming to be much closer than before. She blinked a bit wondering if it was her, she looked to see between them only to find there was barely any space. A bit shocked at the sudden closeness and wondering if she moved herself or she just didn't realize they were this close to begin with.
Moonlight stops laughing letting the sounds of the fireplace take over.
Rigor opened her mouth about to say something and closed it again. She wasn't sure what to say nor was she sure when or how she got so close to him. Adverting her eyes to look at the fireplace, seeing that one of the logs have burnt though.
Moonlight stares at the flames silently.
"I.. um.." she stared before making a small cough to clear her throat, "Feeling any warmer?"
"Yes actually" he said with the glow of the fire hitting his face.
"That's good," she said with a smile, "Let me know if you get too warm because we can move back." She looked behind her and colored seeing exactly what the nearest furniture was. "Or we can go to another room or something," she added.
(( As much as I would love to stay up some more I need to go to sleep. See ya in the morning. I do have a short four hour shift tomorrow but I should be back later in the day though not as late as I was today. ))
((I understand. see ya))
"Alright"
She fell silent watching the fire, subconsciously shifting a bit closer to Moonlight as she stared at the flames.
(( Gonna bolt off to work soon. Didn't wake up early enough. ))
((No prroblem))
Moonlight doesnt move a muscle and smiles.
Rigor's body slowly started to relax and she gave a long slow blink as she stared at the flames. Enjoying the warmth of the flames and Moonlight's body heat.
(( Alright, off to work I go! ))
((have a good time..if it helps))
Moonlight leaned his head on hers.
(( Back ))
Rigor stilled for a moment as she felt his head on her own, her face and ears feeling hot again. She focused on relaxing as she rested against him.
Moonlight didnt move a muscle and was lost in his thoughts.
((Welcome back))
Rigor closed her eyes and just listened to the fire crackling in the fireplace, completely at ease. Her short tail lazily swished side to side.
Moonlight decided to stand up deciding he was dry enough.
Rigor opened her eyes and looked at him, "All dry?"
"As dry as ill get from body contact and a roaring fireplace" he chuckled a bit.
She gave a laugh at that and stood up shaking out her coat a bit, "Unfortunately I'm not a unicorn so I cant do much more than that for you."
"I understand" he said walking to the front door still a bit wet.
She followed him and gave a sigh, "You still are wet though, would another towel help?"
"Ill be fine" he said walking out the door then shaking the water left away
"Alright," she said as she stood at the doorway. "I suppose I'll see you later?" she asked him, though she did feel badly about probably making him uncomfortable.
"Of course and remember no pumpkins in the cupcakes" he flares his wings and heads home.
"I'll remember!" she called to him as he flew off. Shutting the door as she went inside to pick up the towel and clean up the kitchen.
Moonlight gets home and goes straight to work on his newest game which took all night.
((Time skip to morning))
(( Sounds good. ))
Rigor snored as she laid on her bed with her two left legs hanging off of it, her mane a mess as she slept in.
Moonlight hovers over Rigor, a smirk coming to his face. He then lays on the bed and waits for her to wake up.
She made a groan as she kicked one of her legs out muttering about chickens. Her body twitched and she gave a yell as she fell off the bed.
Moonlight looked over the edge snickering. "You alright down there?"
She blinked laying on her back as she looked up at Moonlight. For a moment she thought she was still dreaming because him being in her bedroom made as much sense as a giant chicken chasing her. She rolled over on her stomach and stood up to stare at him curiously, "Moonlight? What are you doing in my bedroom?"
Moonlight decided to mess with her mind since she seemed a bit out of it after that chicken dream. "You let me stay overnight when i came back to get a cupcake" he said with a straight face.
She blinked a bit as she stared at him, "I.. I did?" Rigor couldn't remember doing that as she thought about it, her eyes narrowed a bit. Eventually she stared at him and stuck out her tongue, "Oh no I didn't! You are terrible." She laughed a bit and then tilted her head, "So.. why are you in my bedroom.. and in my bed for that matter?"
"Well i thought id wake you up but you didnt answer when i knocked so i came in to see if you were up but instead i found your breathing corpse here muttering something about chickens"
Her face reddened under her coat, "Yeah.. well I am a heavy sleeper." She didn't want to address the chicken thing though as she stared at him, "I am awake now." She stretched a bit, "Now, just waking me up? Did you have something planned or were you just bored?"
"Hehe i was bored on and i made you breakfast its hot and ready downstairs" he said going to the stairs.
Rigor gave him a strange look, she followed after him. "You are such a random pony," she said amused as she could smell something wonderful coming from the kitchen.
"Maybe thats why you like me" he said going to the kitchen to wash the dishes in the sink.
"Sure.. that's it," she teased as she looked at the spread on the table, "Not because you act like a good wife." Rigor gave him a wink before laughing unable to keep a straight face for long.
Moonlight blushed. "Well at least i know how to cook and clean unlike most stallions out there"
She sat at the table licking around her mouth as she stared at the plates, ravenous and waiting for Moonlight to sit down so she can eat. "Which is a good thing," she said, "I am grateful you are a brilliant cook."
"I learned when i was young, all i did was perfect some of my old recipes..oh and you dont have to wait on me just dig in"
Rigor didn't need to be told twice as she ate happily, extremely grateful for the hot breakfast. "Mm.. well this is all brilliant really," she commented between bites.
Moonlight only smiled happily while putting away the dried dishes.
Rigor made quick work of the food, giving a very contented sigh as she licked around her mouth.
"Sounds like somepony enjoyed her breakfast" he said with a laugh.
"Oh yes! It was amazing!" she exclaimed happily, "Normally I just make my own breakfast. Which usually involves a lot of smoke."
"Well then thank goodness i was here"
She picked up the plates with her teeth taking them to the sink, "Oh yes, my stomach thanks you."
"Well your stomach is very welcome" he said washing and drying the plate.
She smirked, "Well I do owe you for that wonderful breakfast."
"You dont have to owe me anything"
"Yes," she said as she smirked, "I don't have to, but I want to. So if you need something let me know. You can always save that favor for later. Now, how was your night last night?"
"Successful..i finished my new game now i just gotta make copies of it"
"Oh that's good!" she smiled, "What kind of game is it?"
"Its call Pony Fighter 4..its a fighting game basically and there honestly isnt much to tell but its done regardless" he said with a smile.
"Oh that sounds like fun. I only have one and three," she said with a grin, "What does four have in it that three doesn't?"
"More characters, improved graphics, longer story line for each character and several bonuses and easter eggs for those willing to go that far"
She grinned at that, "Sounds like it will drain all my free time."
"I didnt know you played my games" he said a bit surprised.
"To be honest I didn't know they were -your- games. I thought they were just some ponyelse's," she said with a laugh. "I always ordered them though they occasionally came late to my doorstep, but I know the mailpony tries her hardest."
"So true but at least that explain why i had some many delivery orders" he said with a slight laugh.
"Yeah, she sometimes gets confused with my orders and will occasionally bring me one or more," she laughed at that. "So wait," she paused and looked at him, "You make -all- the games?"
"Yup every game and console in that store is hoof made my yours truly" he said proudly.
"Wow," she was honestly amazed by that, she knew every pony had a special talent and was able to contribute to Ponyville. However making each game and console was to her one of the most important talents. "That seems like a harder job than mine."
"Well yeah its get hard when you have to put a new console together by hoof and considering some of the parts i needed dont even exist in ponyville, i had to rely on the everfree where i found the original"
"Considering you do it on your own, I can imagine.." she said looking at his hooves, unable to imagine working small circuitry with her own hooves. "The everfree forest?" she questioned.
"Yeah..like i said i found the original there so i figured if i found thefirst one of it kind then maybe i could find spare part that could be used for more and luckily i did"
"That's good. I am surprised by that, though it is the everfree forest. It's a strange place," she knew full well she got a lot of materials she used to make her special embalming mixture from the everfree forest since it's the only place near Ponyville that had toxins.
"Yup but enough about that" he said as he heads for the door. "if you want you could come by the store sometime instead of just getting them by delivery, itd be nice to see this face more often" he said brushing his tail against her chin.
Rigor went to follow him but her hoof stood still in the air as his tail brushed against her chin, her cheeks reddened under her coat. "I.. um.. I suppose, besides it will let me see some other games I don't have.." she said with a bit of nervous laughter though she remained still where she was.
Moonlight heads for the front door. "You coming or am i to intimidating for you?"
Rigor stood there and then puffed her chest as she followed him and stepped in front of him, flicking her short tail. "Nothing intimidates me!" she said proudly.
"Oooo somepony is feeling mighty proud of herself" he said than hovered past her brushing his tail against her cheek and chin again.
"Very p-" her word was cut off with his tail against her cheek and chin, a small squeak escaped her as she blushed furiously at the sound she let out.
Moonlight snickered a bit. "Awww so you do like me" he said as he kept moving forward.
"I.. I do not!" she said as a reflex, giving a pout as she followed him and tried to will her legs to stop feeling so strange.
"I dont know why you bother to hide it or did last night in front of the fireplace just happen in my imagination?" he said doing a loop de loop.
"I honestly have no idea what you are talking about," she said defiantly as she looked up and watched him. Trying to hold herself as if she scoffed at the notion, "You leaned against me."
"Well you didnt scoot away when i pulled you close..did you?"
"W-Well..." Rigor desperately tried to make an excuse, "It would seem rude would it not?"
"Is that your final answer?" he said landing and getting close.
"I.." she stared at him taking a step back, "I was.... cold?"
"Pressure getting to you?" he said smiling.
"W-what pressure?" she asked as she tried to look beyond him for some sort of distraction. Pointing with her hoof, "Look a bird!"
Moonlight laughed at the failed attempt then starts circling Rigor. "Why dont you come clean Rigor and admit it"
"I took a bath yesterday, so I am quite clean," she said as she tried to follow him by turning her head. Her tail gave her away by flickering side to side nervously. "I have nothing to admit."
Moonlight grabs Rigor's tail with his. "So your tail was moving like that because your calm?"
"I... I have restless tail syndrome?" she offered turning to look at him, her ears flattened and her cheeks red.
"..really, you expect me to believe that" he said keeping a hold of her tail.
Rigor's eyes were wide as she stared at him, trying to make herself say that she did. "I.. um.. no.." she spoke softly.
Moonlight kissed Rigor on the cheek then lets her tail go.
Rigor's body stiffened as she stood there, her eyes dilating into small points.
Moonlight got some altitude just in case. "Rigor..you alright?"
It took her a while to gain function of her brain again as she tried to cover a small sound that threatened to escape. Rigor looked up at him, "I.. I am.."
Moonlight watches and waits as she struggles to say something.
"Y..you.. I.." she shook her head firmly, closing her eyes as she took a breath. Looking up at him as she tried to stand a bit taller, "Am I that transparent?"
Moonlight descends and lands next to her. "Yeah pretty."
Rigor tilted her head as she looked at him, "I see.." She stepped closer though her confidence was betrayed by the redness still present in her cheeks, "That just leaves one thing.. why you decided to poke at it and.." She couldn't finish that and just coughed trotting a bit past him to give herself some space to avoid the topic, "Why did you decide to poke at it?"
"Well i was hoping you would come out and say it but you didnt..your too proud a mare for that" he said honestly.
Rigor looked down and dug in the ground, "It's not that.. I'm too proud.. it's just.." She tucked her short tail a bit, "You know.. not everypony is good with that sort of thing.."
"..but they do deserve to feel that way at least once in their life..dont you agree?" he said walking up to her.
"I suppose," she said looking up a bit surprised he moved closer. Her front right hoof went to move backwards but she stilled it in mid air, studying him a bit. "I mean.. everypony should have a chance.."
"Am i worthy of that chance?" he said siting down.
"Well of course," she said matter-of-factly, "I'm sure plenty of mares and colts would agree." The implication of that question went over her head, "I'm just.. not sure I'm the type of pony that will get one."
Moonlight laughs slightly. "You already have..im righ here arent I?"
Rigor blinked and stared at him, stepping closer and not quite believing it. "I.. well you are but.." the thought finally hit her as she lowered her head slightly giving a small laugh, "Oh..."
"I think you've been around the dead too long..your starting to think like them" he said chuckling a bit hoping he doesnt sound cruel.
She let out a loud laugh, sitting on her rump. The laughter helped her calm down as she looked at him with a smile, "Perhaps I have.. though in their credit they don't confuse me as you do."
"..but its a good confusion" he said brushing her with his tail under her chin again slowly.
"Well," she started looking at him as her eyes shifted slightly, "yes, that is true." "Besides," she laughed a bit making a joke, "the dead don't have the exact same -touch- for acting the way you do."
Moonlight had to laugh at that one for obvious reason. "..and i dont think they ever will"
She rolled her eyes and pretended to think about it, "I suppose you are one of a kind."
"Aww dont tell me your going serious mode on me again already"
Rigor smirked and stood up to walk closer to him, giving him a look before turning and flicking her short tail against his nose before sitting down. "No, I'm just teasing you."
Moonlight blushed. "Fine but this little talk we had did eat up the time to go to my store so how about we go back to your place and ill make us dinner..deal?"
Rigor smiled feeling a bit proud making Moonlight's white coat gain a red hue under it, "Sounds like a good deal to me."
Moonlight hovers off the ground and makes his way back to Rigor's house.
Rigor followed him back to her home, opening the door. "After dinner I can kick your rump at Pony Fighter 3," she said with a smirk.
"Fine then but how about we up the ante..Loser has to to kiss the winner and not on the nose or cheek..fair enough?" he asks heading to the kitchen.
Rigor blinked and looked away with a flush as she nodded, "Sounds fair to me. Though it seems like we both.. "win" so to speak in that situation."
"Exactly" he said with a wink. "By the way what would you like"
She thought about it, but she really had no preference, "I'm not sure. Why don't you make something you enjoy?" Rigor trotted next to him and gave a smirk, "Well, then it it's much of a bet is it? We should add something to it. How about along with the kiss the loser has to dress up however the winner decides?"
"Sounds fair to me" he said preparing a special salad recipe he created.
Amused at the various ideas she had if she won the bet, she kept moving to see what Moonlight was doing. Tilting her head a bit out of curiosity as he started making dinner, "What would you like to drink for it?"
""Anything is fine by me"
She smirked, "Well, you are in luck. I saved some of the Apple family's famous cider last season in my cellar. Let me get us each a mug of it."
Moonlight finishes making diner and sets up the table in the split second shes gone.
Rigor trotted down to the cellar as she picked up two mugs and trotted up to her few saved barrels, "Mmm.. maybe an older year." Filling the mugs with one of the older barrels as she put them on a tray and balanced the tray on her back, heading back up the stairs.
Moonlight waits for Rigor to return while cleaning the dirtied dishes.
"Hey I got us some.." she looked at the set table and smirked, "show off." Putting a mug at each place on the table before looking over at him.
"Dinner is served" Moonlight bows.
Rigor smirked and pushed her nose against his cheek before going to her seat, "As sweet as bowing is, you don't have to put on such airs for me."
"If thats what you want" he said sitting down then taking a bite of his salad.
Rigor smiled, "I just want you to be yourself." She sat down and took a bite of the salad, her eyes widening, "This is really good! I didn't know a salad could taste like this."
'Well with the right ingredients a salad could taste like anything" he smiled confidently
"Also with the right amount of skill," she added giving him a grin. "Perhaps your cutie mark should have been something to do with cooking."
"Nah, with all the odd jobs i do around town i just pick up stuff i learn and make it better" he said finishing his salad.
"I see," she smiled finishing as she took a drink of apple cider, "A jack of all trades."
"Eeyup" he said downing his cider in one go and taking his plate to the sink.
Shaking her head as she finished her cider carefully before bringing her own dishes to the sink. "I'll clean up, why don't you set up the game?"
"Alright" he walks to the living room and turn on the console and starts the game then chooses his favorite fighter.
Rigor took over cleaning the dishes, it didn't take too long and she was soon walking into the living room. Seeing that Moonlight already had his character selected, sitting next to him as she picked up the controller with her hooves and selected her favorite female character. "So, how many battles do you think is fair for me to kick your rump?"
"Best 2 out of 3 wins..fair enough?"
"Sounds fair to me, since you are the guest in my home I'll let you pick the stage," she smirked confidently.
Moonlight chooses his favorite stage and gets ready.
Rigor smirked, granted the only ponies she played against were computer ponies but she was still confident in her abilities. As soon as "GO!" was declared by the game she started her character in a full offensive assault as if he was a hard computer player.
Moonlight stays calm and counters all her moves until he gets the first win. "One down" he said smiling.
Rigor blinked at that, giving him a glare, "Alright." She moved her neck side to side cracking it, "Now things are getting serious."
Moonlight stays silent and focuses on the next round.
Rigor smirked and started off the next round a bit more cautiously, though to make sure she would win she flicked her tail against Moonlight's cutie mark teasingly in hopes to distract him as she made her character jump and come at his from behind.
Moonlight smirked at her failed attempt at a sneak attack while still blushing and countered and waited for her next move.
"Cute," she muttered as she failed getting close enough to throw his character. Trying a mix of crouching attacks and blocking to get close enough to Moonlight's character.
Moonlight jumps over Rigors character then kicks her int the air and juggles her then lets her fall.
Rigor gave a small growl as she tried to get her character to block or escape the juggling. As her character fell she tried to roll her and barely manages to keep her character alive, but not by much. Only one more hit would kill her and cause Rigor to lose the match. She sat there thinking, a smirk crossed her face as she was faced with only one option. "Oh, Moonlight..." reaching her head over as she rubbed the top of her head against his neck in a soft nuzzle.
Moonlight startled by the contact a bit staggered a bit. "Um..Rigor" was all he could get out while blushing and his focus slipping.
Rigor smirked and that was all she needed as she had her character charge and hit his over and over. Though since her character was close to death she kept up her nuzzling to keep him distracted until she killed his character. "Yes?" she asked with a soft purr. As soon as she heard the game declared her the winner she smirked and gave a cheer forgetting her little act.
"What just happened?" he asked totally oblivious to what just happen as far as the second round went.
"Oh I won, nothing to worry about," she said with a smirk. Fully intending on doing the same trick for round three, after all it's his fault if he cant concentrate right? "Ready for the final round that chooses the winner?"
"Yeah of course" he got ready and focused again.
Her short tail swished side to side as the game declares "GO!" though unlike her previous methods she hung her character back waiting for Moonlight to make the first move this time.
Moonlight attacked her character with a seemingly endless combo leaving Rigor's character with less than 1 HP left.
Rigor blinked and glared at the screen, she couldn't believe she was losing again. She leaned towards him as she started to nuzzle his neck, stopping herself. Doing that to win a round is different than doing it to win the game. If she was going to lose she was going to lose with style. Charging her character at his to attempt one last throw to damage him if only a little before he killed her character.
Instead Moonlight countered the charge and turned it into a grab where his character threw her off the map.
Rigor sighed putting her controller down as the game declared Moonlight the winner, "Apparently playing against computer players isn't enough."
"Actually ive never played against another player myself..being the maker of the game its natural i would have won. I memorized the combo for every character and know their every weakness." he said leaning back on the couch.
"You still won," she said with a bit of a pout before turning to him, "Well, have you decided?"
"Yup..ive decided to forget the second half of our bet and ill just take that kiss" he smiled.
She gave him a look and a fake pout as she teased, "Oh? What if I liked that part of the bet?" She moved on the couch to look at him as her cheeks colored, "To be serious, you don't have to be easy on me just because you won. I lost fairly, perhaps would have sooner if I didn't cheat a little and that part of the bet was my idea."
"Well to be honest its not that i dont want to but more or less that i cant think of an outfit for you to wear"
"Oh," she said studying him to make sure he wasn't lying, "Well, you could have said that sooner." Rigor smiled glad she wasn't being treated different than normal, "So, for my.. um.. bargain.." Her cheeks colored as she looked at him, a small swallow as she took a large breath to calm herself down. She closed her eyes and leaned forward to press a kiss to his mouth.
Moonlight leaned forward and accepted it gratefully. "See that wasnt so bad was it" he said teasingly.
Rigor blushed and flattened her ears, "No, it wasn't. N-not that my hesitation was because I thought it was bad.." With a touch of nervous laughter she smirked, "I am surprised you weren't too upset about my "cheating" earlier."
(( Alas, I must go to bed. I have an early day and with any hope after a two hour bloody drive... ovO I will get a drop in with a good counselor that will help me with my application for my funeral service studies. If I get up early enough I'll be on for a bit before I go. So good night and see ya tomorrow! :D ))
(good night and pleasant dreams :D))
"It was bound to happen if you ask me" he said laughing.
(( Ugggg hours waiting for a drop in.. Should have brought my laptop. ))
"Are you saying I'm a cheater?" she asked with mock hurt, though her amused smile gave away her performance.
"You just played against the developer and i felt it was gonna happen but i let it go" he said nuzzling her back like earlier.
"You just enjoyed it too much to care," she accused him teasingly. Her ears flattened at the nuzzling but she was enjoying it too much to get too embarressed and flustered.
"True" he smiled
((on my.phone right now and.in class so yea this is difficult lol))
(( Lol I'm on my iPod touch and in the counciling office! XD You would think we are attending the same school. lol ))
She stared at his smile for a bit before asking, "So, do you claim you like hanging out with me?". Rigor leaned in close, "Correct?" Though she was close to him her eyes were looking out the window at the darkening sky.
"Yup..i wont deny it your honor" pretending he was on trial
Rigor laughed as her eyes turned to him, "That's good.". She pointed her hoof at the window, because it looks as if there is going to be a thunderstorm tonight.". Her hoof was pointing at a specific spot in the window where a couple of pegasi were putting up dark clouds.
(( They called me in to my appt yay. Got to go drive home now. ))
Moonlight looks out the window. "Looks like im spending the night here" he said with a wide grin.
((okie dokie))
(( Home.. finally... :o ))
Rigor looked at his face and pushed her hoof against his cheek, "Don't seem too pleased now about the bad weather."
..and why is that?
"Well one would think you planned this," she replied with a smirk.
Well all things considered i never knew wanting to stay with close friend was a bad thing he said looking out the window again with a slightly unhappy face.
Rigor leaned close when he was looking out the window and pressed her nose to his cheek before getting off the couch, "I never said it was. My apologies for making you upset, I'm not very good at conveying my feelings. I was only teasing."
Its alright but that isnt whats upsetting me he said still looking out the window.
Ill have to delay the release date of the Pony Fighter 4 because of this storm.
She grew concerned, "You don't think anypony would be foolish enough to face the storm to get Pony Figher 4 do you?"
Well.. he said looking away
Rigor sighed, "We are going to be those foolish ponies to sit at your store just in case aren't we?"
Moonlight only smiled sheepishly.
She sighed, "Let me get a scarf." She trotted upstairs to get one of her long black and white scarves, she called down to him, "Do you need anything warm?"
Moonlight was already outside waiting on Rigor at that moment.
Rigor stepped outside and shut her door securely as she looked at him wearing a thick black and white stripped scarf. "Alright, lets hurry before we get too terribly soaked," she muttered looking up at the pouring storm clouds above them.
Alright
Moonlight gallops off to his store.
Rigor followed close after him, keeping her eyes on him as they ran though the mud and thick rain.
Moonlight sees a line forming outside his store and sighed.
As the line came into view she laughed at the ridiculousness of it, "Really? Really? Don't they realize they could ruin whatever they get because of this storm?" She shook her head and kept close to Moonlight in case some pony decides to yell at her for "cutting in line".
Moonlight rushes inside the store and into the back room
Rigor followed inside, shaking a bit to get some excess water off. She trotted after him, "Would you like any help?"
Yes can you open the door and handle the register..i need to get these boxes open he called out from the back opening one box.
Rigor went to the door as she pushed it open, wet ponies came inside rapidly though they were mostly stallions and foals. She went to the register and looked at it grateful it was a similar model to the one she had at her funeral home. Mostly she kept the soaking ponies settled and calm as they waited for their game.
Moonlight comes out front with an open box filled with the game a few consoles. Okay just give each pony either a copy of the game or a console that comes with the game..if you need me ill be in back unpacking more were hs last words as he headed back to the back room.
She blinked and looked at the open box and the expectant ponies as she stared at them, "Well.. buck me.." Rigor started working with each pony as she gave them a game or console depending on their request, she put the bits in the register after each sale. She was a bit surprised how many ponies braved the storm for the game.
Another batch incoming he said bringing another box then heads back to the back room.
Rigor frowned having to stop more than one small fights that broke out about cutting, "For Luna's sake! Everypony relax! There is more than enough and if I catch you all fighting again you go to the back of the line!"
Moonlight heard that then comes out of the back room with another box and says If i hear that there has been a fight out here again then everypony will be sent home until tomorrow. Now stand in line in an orderly fashion and wait to be served! causing everypony in the store to stop arguing and stand there quietly waiting. Moonlight goes back to the back room without another word.
A sigh of relief escaped her as everypony finally acted like adults, she was suddenly very grateful that she never had this problem at her funeral home. Rigor returned to her duties helping everypony with their purchases.
Moonlight came out from the back. Last box he said putting it down. Hows it going out here?
"Much better since you yelled at them," she commented handing a game to a small foal and stallion who looked happy as can be. "I think since they know I'm not usually here that they could get away with some rude behavior."
yeah i know what you mean..first time i opened up shop i had to break up a fight by getting into one sadly..after that everypony understood not to try that again with me in here he laughed. Isnt that right! he yelled at the small line in which every pony stood their shaking their head yes.
Rigor grinned, "Well, that's good that they behave like good gentlecolts and mares." She worked the register as she helped the last few ponies in the small line.
Moonlight sits there and waits for Rigor to finish the last sale.
As she gave the last game to a large stallion who ran off happily with it, she gave a sigh of relief as the store was finally empty. "Buck me.. that was more intense than I thought it would be," she laughed looking at Moonlight. "I think I prefer the dead, they don't argue as they wait in line. Their line is in the freezer which is worse than some rain."
Moonlight laughs. Its rewarding all the same he said pointing at the register.
Rigor smirked, "Well that is true. You definitely get a lot of business." She looked at the door, "Do you think that's the last of the ponies willing to brave the storm?"
The last of the dumb ones yeah..the intelligent ones will come when the weather clears up meaning we are done here he said with a huge smile.
"Thank Luna.." she said with a sigh, as she looked at Moonlight. "So, where shall we go for the rest of the night. I suppose running to my home is a bit far considering the storm got worse."
My house is off limits too..i live in a cloud house to keep away from the fans of my games and because i get a good view of the moon
Rigor sighed looking out at the sky, seeing lightning streak across. "I don't suppose you have a spare cot or bed in here? The nearest place would send off various rumors about us."
Well i do have a blanket and pillow in the back, you can use em if you want..Ill stay up here in case somepony else comes in
"All night?" she questioned. Her eyes still on the storm outside, it was beautiful to her.
Wouldnt be the first time he said confindently.
"I can't tell you how many ponies I worked on that have over worked themselves into an early visit with me," she muttered as thunder cracked loudly.
Just trust me Rigor..ive been doing this ever since i first opened the store
"I'm sure," she said looking over at him with a smile. "I'm just commenting," she looked back out tilting her head as she saw some branches fall and move across the ground. "Looks like some ponies didn't get all the dead branches."
Luckily i was the smart pony and had this place made away from the trees
"Well you wouldn't want a branch destroying your store after all," she smiled and moved from the door as she trotted towards Moonlight. "How shall we entertain ourselves until the storm is over?" she asked, though her eyes were more on the various games.
Well there is an active console in the back if you wanna play the new Pony Fighter..Theres still one copy in the back that i took out he said smiling.
Rigor grinned excitedly, "Oh yes!" She ran into the back room, "Hurry up. I want to fight you again."
I dont think you wanna take that leap just yet he said laughing at her overconfidence.
"It's a new game, I probably have a bit of a chance on this one," she smirked even though she knew he would be the only one who would know the combos for such a new game. "Besides, computer players aren't much help now are they?"
They are now..just try it on the hardest difficulty this time
"Fine," she said with a sigh as she sat down and picked up the controller, looking over the newest characters. "Mmm..." She picked a new female character and decided to give her a shot.
Moonlight looked over the shelves making sure they were stocked.
Rigor moved her body as she fought computer players giving a growl every so often, "Uggg! Just hit it already!"
Moonlight smiled hearing Rigors frustration.
"Buck!" she yelled out as she glared at the screen, "Oh you are going to pay for that!"
Moonlight laughed to himself thinking that the highest difficulty couldnt be that hard.
Rigor focused as she got a feel for the new character and how she worked. As well as getting better at blocking and hitting the computer players. Though she did scream at the screen a few times when she lost.
(Just gonna jump in.)
Fluffy Cloud was galloping very quickly. It seemed like she was chasing something.
((no problem))
You okay back there Rigor?
(( Sounds good to me. ))
Rigor put down the controller as she came out of the back room looking at him, "Yeah.. I'm okay. I was getting a feel for one of the new characters in the game. Started to get pretty decent at her."
We'll see he said as he headed towards the back room and turning his custom controller on.
She laughed as she went to look outside again, "The storm is still going pretty strong, the pegasi put a lot of work into this one."
Too much work if you ask me he said choosing his favorite character. Are you gonna fight me or does the weather peak your interest more? he asked tauntingly
Fluffy Cloud slowed down a little to regain her breath.
She looked close to the window, she just thought she saw someone running past in the rain. She shook her head, that would be insane to think somepony would be running out there right now.
Rigor laughed as she trotted to the back room, "Alright, alright, I suppose fighting you is more interesting." She sat next to him and picked up her controller, she gave a curious look at the custom one he was holding in his hooves. "Show off," she smirked.
Moonlight flashed a huge grin You think you gonna do well?
"With or without distracting you?" she asked with a smirk as she picked her character. "I think I'm going to do much better this time."
If you say so Moonlight chooses a rooftop map and readies himself.
Rigor took a breath as she got a grin, pushing her hooves on the buttons as she started with a combo she figured out while fighting the computer players. Trying to get her character close enough to throw his in the air.
Moonlight waits and allows her to get his character airborne.
She grinned happily as she made her character jump to hit his character while it's midair, "Heh.."
Moonlight countered with a grab and threw her character off the roof.
Rigor pouted as her character died, "Oh now that was a dirty trick."
Moonlight smiled. Well i never said i was gonna fight fair
"No, I suppose you didn't," she sighed, she really wasn't doing as well as she did against computer players.
well thats what practise is for he said while doing a near endless combo on a computer player then kicking it off screen.
Rigor laughed, "Considering you have probably tested this game thousands of times it's understandable." She watched him battle computer players though her eyes shifted from the screen to his hooves on the controller trying to figure out how he did certain combos.
Moonlight fought another computer player and beat it in 3 seconds after the match started.
"You know, I think it will be impossible to beat you at this," she said as she watched.
Moonlight grinned sheepishly. Impossible may not be the right word
"Improbable?" she questioned with a smirk.
Moonlight laughed. No its possible to beat me..itll just take months maybe even years of practise.
"Of course by then, a new game came out to study," amused as she looked at him.
Hehe..I cant just leave the series at a stand point you know
"So there is no way to beat you," she said amused as she flicked her tail to the side, moving her hooves so she could stand up and give a stretch.
I guess not he said with a slight laughed then pokes Rigor's cheek with the tip of his tail.
Rigor laughed and bit at his tail before muttering around it, "You need to stop doing that or I'm going to start biting you."
Moonlight laughs ignoring the mild painFine fine just let me go
Rigor grinned and let go of his tail, she flicked her short tail at him in triumph. "Out of curiosity," she started, "How do you get your tail to be shaped like that?"
Well not many ponies know but im half zebra and most males have their tails in this shape but theirs where changed to be that way. I was the only one with my tail like this after birth.
"I see. That's fascinating," she smiled, "It's a brilliant genetic trait."
It sure is he said smiling
"You know, I thought that you had used mane products to keep it's shape," she admitted shyly.
Iron Hoof made his way to the town sqaure and sat down on a bench, relaxing
Rigor Mortis smiled walking towards town square and Sugarcube Corner, her saddle bags empty except for bits as she intended of getting something wonderful to eat.
Iron leaned back against the bench, careful not to make his hood fall back, he looked around, watching all the busy ponies walking around, he spotted Rigor, he watched him carefully as he walked.
((Just so you know, hes wearing a hood that covers his face and a cloak to cover his front hooves, I'll explain later))
(( Rigor is a mare but that works if he thinks she is a male. She keeps her mane and tail short and boyish anyway. ))
Rigor checked her saddle bag for a moment, her eyes looking up and noticing a strange pony wearing a hood on a bench. She blinked and decided to continue to Sugercube, after all who was she to stare at somepony.
((Sorry...my bad should've said she..))
Iron kept watch on her as she continued walking, his eye spun and whizzed very very quietly as it followed her, his head did not move. He then tilted his head and cracked his neck, and stood up again.
(( Also he looks like this))
(( Ooo Cypony. Like I said it's alright. Silly little s's escaping. ))
Rigor walked into Sugercube and picked out a few chocolate, pomegranate, and pumpkin muffins. Stuffing them into her bag as she paid for them. She trotted to go outside with a happy bounce in her steps.
Iron took a few steps forward, still close to the bench, he zoomed in on her saddlebag, his eye whizzed and spun more as he did, and changed lenses. He could see through the bag and saw the few goodies she had recently bought. He looked at them hungrily then turned away and mumbled something. He started walking away from the bench and the pony
Rigor walked a bit her eyes catching the strange pony with the hood. She never seen that pony before, she thought to herself about how the pony seemed shy as the pony walked away. She wasn't even sure if the pony was a stallion or a mare, but she knew what it was like to be shy and alone on a bench waiting for somepony to say hello. Deciding to take a page out of her friend's book she trotted after the pony, "Hello?"
Iron stopped and turned back to her, he dimmed his glowing eye, so it was very dim, but he could still see out of it. He looked at her, he was slightly taller than she was. He made no sound. The only thing of his face she could see, was the brown end of his muzzle.
She smiled as she looked at the pony, now realizing he was a stallion, though "looked at" wouldn't be the best terms as all she could see was darkness and his brown muzzle. "H-hello, I don't believe we met," she muttered before giving a cough trying to act not as insane as she thought she sounded, "I mean, I know what it's like to be a shy pony on a bench alone. Not that it's strange.. I just.. Okay let me start over." She held out her hoof, "Hello, would you like some company since you seem alone?"
Iron Hoof still made no gesture, though under his hood, now he got a better look at her, his eye was scanning her, looking at the things in her bag, her hoof, and anything that stood out. After a very brief moment he nodded slightly
Rigor kept her hoof out a bit longer, realizing the stallion wasn't going to offer his own she put it down. "Alright then, I'm Rigor Mortis. What is your name?" she asked looking at him, a small part of her mind wondering if he could talk.
He paused for a moment pondering whether or not to answer. Making his decision he replied, Iron Hoof He said it with a low gruff, growly, voice.
She smiled, glad she didn't have to rely on hoof language to talk to him. "Nice to meet you," she started before turning and opening one of her saddle bags, "If you want I have muffins we can share while we talk and what not."
Thank you He held out his hoof, but it was covered by his sleeve
"What kind would you like? I have chocolate, pomegranate, and pumpkin," she asked him, her eyes catching that his hoof was covered. "I'm.. I'm not sick.. or is it you have an issue about touching other ponies?" she asked feeling a bit hurt that Iron felt the need to cover his hoof.
"Sorry...its an issue...and chocolate.."
Rigor felt a little better at that, at least it wasn't because he just did it to her. Picking out a chocolate muffin from her saddle bag she put it in Iron's hoof, "There you go."
((i just randomly fell asleep and missed so much but let me see if i can weasel my way back in here))
Moonlight just left the hospital after crashing and injuring his left wing on impact and was on his way back to his store.
Thank you He bit down on the muffin, making a subtle clang as he did, he ate it slowly. There was a small glint from the tip of his hoof
(( It's alright. This rp thread is mostly random and what not. Honestly anyone could come in flying on a rainbow and I wouldn't care. :P ))
Rigor blinked wondering if that small clang was just her ears, she twitched them a bit. Seeing a glint from the tip of his hoof she smiled, "Oh? Do you get hooficures from that spa in town?"
Um.... no I don't...I wasn't aware there even was one He bit down again making another clang
((lol you have a good point))
Moonlight passes by Rigor and Iron Hoof without looking up keeping his head down and ears flattened.
Iron's eye snapped to Moonlight and watched him walk, his head remained motionless. He bit the muffin again *clang*
Rigor was about to comment about the second clang when she saw Moonlight walk by, "Moonlight!" She smiled and waved with her hoof but the third clang turned her head, "Okay, I'm either insane or you have something wrong with your teeth."
You're insane... He said confident in what he said, he bit again making yet another clang
Moonlight's ear perked up upon hearing his name being called but keeps walking to his store.
"Oh for Celestia's sake!" she exclaimed hearing the clang again and torn between her friend walking off depressed. She pointed her hoof at Iron, "You stay here while I grab somepony." She trotted off after Moonlight and bit down on his tail, turning as she tried to drag him back where she left Iron Pony.
Iron chuckled when she walked away then looked normal when she headed back and smiled at the two
Moonlight yelped not knowing what was going on and thought he being dragged by his tail by some unknown celestial force until he turned his head. Rigor..what are you doing? he asked with a bit of sadness in his voice.
She dragged him as she returned to Iron pony, feeling rude having ran off. She sat down on top of Moonlight's rump to keep him still, "I'm sorry about that Iron. Some -rude- pony was ignoring me and needed to be taught a lesson." She eyed Iron confused how he seemed so normal now, maybe she was imagining it all. "Anyway, Moonlight, you ignored me you j-," she paused seeing a donkey go by, "-erk."
Its alright...I need to do that all the time.. He ate the last piece of muffin with a *Clang*
Moonlight not being able to move reminded him how it felt to wait at the hospital for his diagnosis so he tried desperately to escape but without his other wing he was going nowhere so he just gave up and laid there. Last i checked dragging ponies away against their will was rude too
"You started it," she glared behind her at him, "Why are you acting so strange?" Though she didn't get to focus much as she pointed her hoof at Iron, "Ah-ha! I heard that! I did! You can not tell me I'm hearing things!"
Hear what? I hear nothing but my chewing...
Moonlight tried to flap his one good wing but it didnt help. ..but i didnt do anything he said with a bit of a sadder tone in his voice.
"That's what's so strange! I think something is wrong with your teeth," she said to Iron. Moving on her seat which happens to be Moonlight's rump as she turned to look down at him, "Okay, why are you all sad? This isn't like you."
Nah..just normal 'ol iron... he smirked and walked away
((I must sleep now.....bee!))
Moonlight points to his broken wing without saying anything else
(( Good night to you! ))
Rigor blinked and watched the strange stallion walk away, "Alright.. I suppose I'll see you around.." She then turned her full attention to her friend who is acting so strange. Her eyes widened as she looked at the broken wing making a small noise of apology. "Oh, Moonlight.. I'm so sorry.."
Moonlight didnt say anything but instead tried to struggle again.
Rigor got off of him and looked at the wing, "How long do you have to stay off of it?"
A week at the most he said swallowing his sadness this being his first serious injury ever.
"There is no way you can get back..." she looked up knowing his home was somewhere up there. She frowned and tried to lift him to his feet with some urging, "Come on, let's get you into a bed to rest. Perhaps it will heal sooner if you rest."
Alright he said with his ears flattened.
"Come on," she said as she lead him to her funeral home, "You can rest in my bed while you recover."
Moonlight followed with a small smile.
She walked close next to him, watching him closely and feeling guilty about how she acted earlier. Opening the door to her funeral home, "Why don't you head upstairs? Are you hungry?"
No not really he said heading up stairs.
"Alright," she followed him up the stairs as she went to get him settled in her large poster bed. "If you do need something all you have to do is let me know."
Thanks Rigor he said in a soft tone as he laid in bed
She smiled at him, "No problem." She debated what she would do for her own sleeping arrangements as she went to her closet to debate if she should put down some blankets and pillows to sleep on the floor or take the couch downstairs.
Moonlight decided that it would be best if he did got some rest and fell asleep almost instantly.
"Moonlight which would you.." she trailed off looking at him. She smiled and moved to the side of the bed to see if he really was asleep, sitting down as she looked on for a while. Her cheeks colored as she covered her face with her hoof, "I must be a really creepy pony... as they said in school.." She moved and got a blanket and pillow, "Probably best if I sleep on the couch downstairs."
Moonlight unconsciously turned on his side revealing his sleeping face and extended a hoof while dreaming
Rigor paused a bit, looking at him. Muttering as she talked to herself, "What if I don't hear him and he needs something.. he has a broken wing. A broken wing doesn't change the fact he has four hooves.. but he is depressed..."
In his sleep he quietly muttered Dont leave.
She made a startled noise and stood there, realizing he was still asleep she breathed a sigh of relief, moving her blankets and pillow to the floor in front of her closet. She curled up on top of them, "Heh, I thought he heard me talking to myself for a minute there."
Moonlight tossed and turned then quickly woke up not remembering what happened after Rigor offered to help him get better
Rigor was fast asleep on her crumpled up mound of a balled up blanket and a lonely pillow. She was curled up with her short tail barely touching her nose.
Moonlight sat up looking for his caretaker for the week and saw her sleeping on the floor. You didnt have to sleep on the floor he thought watching her sleep. He then got out of bed and went to go make breakfast.
Rigor rolled on her back and slept on as if she was dead to the world.
Moonlight proceeded to make breakfast and then he went outside to get some fresh air refusing to stay in bed the whole week.
Eventually Rigor stirred a bit, opening an eye towards her bed. She jumped straight up, her mane and tail on end and fried from her sleep. "Moonlight?!" she panicked wondering where he ran off to, "Oh no.. don't tell me he tried to fly home.." She ran downstairs smelling breakfast but ignoring it as she searched the funeral home, even opening her freezer and looking in coffins.
Moonlight heard the commotion in the house and laughed a bit and decided to go back inside.
She was busy looking inside her cremation chamber as her rump and tail stood out from it with the rest of her inside.
Moonlight suck up behind her. I hope you dont plan on doing what i think your doing he said chuckling.
Rigor jumped and hit her head in the chamber as she tried to turn around quickly. "Nnn... ponyfeathers..." she grumbled and turned around flinging her hooves around his neck, "I thought you went and did something stupid!" She colored and stepped back embarrassed about her outburst, "I mean.. what if you broke your neck on my watch?"
I may feel like just a zebra without my other wing but im not an idiot he said laughing.
"You never know with your showing off," she said as she closed her cremation chamber door and pressed her nose against his cheek for a moment. "I'm glad you are alright. You woke up earlier than I thought you would."
I had a bad dream that all and since i was up i decided why not make breakfast and step outside for some air to clear my head he said softly. Little did i know upon not seeing me in bed my caretaker would go bananas
Rigor's cheeks and ears turned red under her coat, "I.. I didn't go bananas.. I'm just responsible for you is.." She groaned as she gave up trying to defend her actions and walked by him, "Nevermind... Anyway.. what was your dream about? Did you eat any of the breakfast you made?"
Id rather not talk about it and no i havent..im not very hungry but i thought you might be when you woke up again not anticipating you would lose it upon not seeing me he laughed.
"I'm not going to live that down am I?" she asked as she walked towards the kitchen expecting him to follow her.
Nope he said straightforwardly and goes back outside.
She blinked realizing he went outside, rolling her eyes as she grabbed a plate for her breakfast and took it outside with her. So she could keep an eye on him as she eats.
Moonlight sits outside and looks up at the sky lost in thought.
Rigor sat next to him, giving him a look before looking up as well. "I wont pretend I understand how you are feeling," she said softly. Granted she had broken her leg before but she was still able to walk with her three other legs, she couldn't imagine not being able to move on some plane. "Though, I am sorry and at least it wont be forever."
Yea its just that ive never been grounded for more than a few hours and thats usually to buy groceries or watch over the store he sighed.
"I wouldn't know what flying is like," she said softly looking up at the sky. "Though, I'll do all I can to make you feel better about your situation until you can fly again."
Moonlight smiled from hearing that statement. Thanks Rigor oh and for the record im starting to think all mares are stronger than stallions he decided to add.
"Oh?" she asked looking at him, "Why do you say that?" She did beam at that thought though, what mare wouldn't after all?
Well i was dragged by my tail a good distance and i was sat on and couldnt move a muscle
Rigor blushed at that, "Oh, well.. I move bodies all day all by myself. Besides, being an earth pony I don't have wings or a horn to exercise, just my legs."
Makes sense
"It could just be me, but I think all earth ponies are a bit stronger than unicorns and pegasi," speaking a bit modestly. "In any case, breakfast was amazing as usual."
Your very welcome and think nothing of it..its the least i can do since your watching over my recovery
She smirked and moved to sit closer to him as she nudged his shoulder with her own, "You just don't want to risk waking up with smoke filling the house."
Well there is that and the fact that i wake up earlier than you on a daily basis
"Hey.. I could wake up early if I wanted. I just have no need on most days," giving him another nudge. "Speaking of sleep, did you find the bed comfortable?"
Yes actually but there was enough room for both of us. why did you sleep on the floor?
"I was going to ask.. how you," she rubbed her right front hoof over her left front leg, "felt about me sleeping on the other side of the bed, but you fell asleep. I was worried about how you felt on privacy and I debated going to the couch downstairs, but you may have needed me at some time."
I dont have a problem sharing a bed he said straightforward.
She colored a bit and looked away, "Oh, I see." Rigor smiled at that, "That's good, my makeshift bed wasn't that comfortable."
It didnt look comfortable either
"Well it would have been rude of me to sleep in the bed if you were the type of pony who had issues with sharing a bed," she replied.
So far in my book the rudest thing you have ever done was drag me by my tail unconditionally
"Well I thought you were ignoring me on purpose which in my book earned your dragging by the tail," standing by her action. "Besides, I already apologized for that."
Moonlight rolls his eyes to that logic but lets it go then stretches out and lays in the grass.
Rigor watched him before looking up at the sky again, "What is flying like anyway?"
Picture running but with a lighter feeling and being able to touch and soar through the clouds
"Sounds fascinating," in complete awe. Lowering herself to lay on the grass as her short tail swished a few times before she curled in the warm grass.
Moonlight swished his tail on the grass but ended up cutting a bit shorter due to the shape on his tail.
Rigor pressed her nose and face against his shoulder as she rested against Moonlight. Enjoying the warmth of the day.
Moonlight only looked at Rigor then went back to staring at the sky.
As Light gets out the train from Manehattan he says energetically, "Hello Ponyville!"
Rigor was happy resting, however her ears twitched and she stirred a bit. Moving her head as she looked out a bit sleepily, "Mm.. did you hear something?"
Probably someone coming in from the train station but you dont have to worry about it, you can keep resting
"Probably," she muttered giving a small yawn, "Energetic ponies.." She was muttering as she put her head back down on her hooves and rested, she wasn't asleep but she did have her eyes closed and relaxed.
Moonlight smiled. Yeah energetic ponies he said then decided to rub Rigor's head gently while looking out into the distance.
(( Sorry had grocery shopping to do. Bright side. My target just got actually nice Pinkie Pie and Twilight Sparkle plushies. Guess who owns them now. ovO Only thing strange is their manes and tails being felt strips but the rest is nicely done I can just curl Pinkie's hair later. EDIT: Apparently I'm special and didn't write my part. My bad.))
Rigor smiled from his rubbing, her mane was already messed up from sleeping so she didn't mind him making her mane frizzy.
((Thats so cool and grats on being the owner of Pinkie and Twi now ^-^))
Moonlight looks toward the station and wonders who that was.
She looked up at Moonlight, "Something on your mind?"
Moonlight snaps out of it. Huh..what..oh no nothing
"I see," she smiled, "Well, that's good."
Yeah Moonlight keeps staring ut toward the station but then forgets about it immediately.
She blinked as she stared at him, "Do you want to investigate?" Granted she didn't know what he wanted to investigate but he kept staring off.
Moonlight looked down at Rigor and shook his head no then got up and went back inside.
She laid in the grass a bit longer before getting up, noticing an imprint in the grass where his tail cut it. She chuckled a bit and looked at the sun realizing what time it was. "I should get to cleaning the headstones," she muttered as she headed towards the graveyard next to her home.
A black unicorn with purple hair was trotting towards Rigor, and was a levitating a couple of scrolls in front of her.
Moonlight decided to make dinner ahead of time instead of later feeling that something was gonna happen soon.
Rigor blinked looking at the black unicorn, she was about to pick a bucket up with her teeth to start cleaning. "Hello? Can I help you?" she asked curiously at the unicorn so near the graveyard wondering if mare was coming to visit a family member.
"[shadow=purple,left]Huh? Oh, uh, no.[/shadow]" the pony said in a raspy voice.
Moonlight finished making dinner and puts it away for later and goes back outside.
Rigor gave the pony a look and smiled, "Alright then, just be careful. You don't want to trip over a gravestone." She picked up the bucket with her teeth and went to fill it with water.
Moonlight walks toward Rigor. Who're talking to? he asked not noticing the black unicorn.
The mare looks at the other pony. "[shadow=purple,left]Hey, is it okay if I tell you two a secret?[/shadow]" she asks.
Rigor put down the bucket next to a gravestone and pointed her hoof over at the black mare, "That pony, I um.." She looked to the unicorn and flattened her ears, "I'm sorry, I'm afraid I don't know your name."
She tilted her head at that, "I suppose. I'll keep it for you."
Moonlight turns to see the black unicorn.
Sure what kind of secret..um what was your name again
"[shadow=purple,left]My apologies. My name is North Star, and I work in the castle. I usually attend to the files and such. Now, the secret is...[/shadow]" North Star looked around and lowered her voice. "[shadow=purple,left]A alicorn will rise, and become our new queen. Celestia and Luna will be overthrown.[/shadow]"
Moonlight's eyes widened hearing everything North Star had said. Hehe..your kidding right
"No," she said. Her voice sounded normal. "I have a second secret. I trust you to keep it a secret."
Rigor opened her mouth to say hello to North Star but she stopped as she listened to the unicorn's lowered voice. Blinking several times before looking up in the sky as if Celestia herself would be there. "That's.. um.." she didn't know how to respond to that.
I know so many untold secrets i should make a bag to put em all in so one more shouldnt hurt he said listening intently then looks at Rigor.
"That alicorn...is right in front of you." She smirked, and her hair became wavy. Black and purple wings sprouted from her back.
Moonlight stood in front of Rigor and draws his keyblade just in case.
" :/ I thought you were going to keep this a secret. I was just about to let you look at the scrolls."
Rigor backed up a bit as North Star seemed to change, she felt really vulnerable without her trocar. Her back left leg touched her bucket, ready to grab that if needed. "I.." she looked around a bit, "Don't you think this could be considered.. treason if we keep talking out in the open?" She eyed the pony in front of her and rolled her eyes at Moonlight being such a gentlecolt, "We never said we weren't going to keep it a secret."
I never said I'd tell anyone but another alicorn coming out of the blue to tell us our princesses will fall is suspicious
"I don't want to hurt anypony. Unless they get in my way. Besides, I need an army." She looks at the scrolls in front of her, being surprisingly casual.
Moonlight puts away his keyblade. Looking for an army in a kingdom you want to control?. Moonlight then looks at the scrolls.
"An army?" Rigor questioned, she didn't like where this was going. Granted a pony could say it would be good business for her if there was a battle but the idea of so many young mares and stallions in her shop wasn't her idea of a good thing. She eyed the scrolls, "I assume you would act as general.."
North Star levitates them farther into the air. "Nuh-uh-uh. No peeking."
Moonlight looks at the alicorn suspiciously.
"I see," she said eyeing them for a moment, "well if you are not going to show them, perhaps you could explain a little what is on them?"
"Look, I've been waiting days for this moment and I'm not going to let anypony ruin it by seeing these scrolls. This is when soft hearted princesses Celestia and Luna fall, and a new era will dawn!" She looked at the scrolls. "I am associates with Queen Chrysalis. I will let her have a part of Equestria with unsuspecting ponies to feed off."
..and how do we play a part in this takeover you think will succeed
"Ha! You two can just stay out of my way. It's who you hang out with who matters."
What do you mean by that?
Rigor gave the pony a curious look, "A thinly veiled threat or a warning?"
"Oh, just a warning. And I thought you, Moonlight, would know who you hang out with." North Star turned around. The scrolls disappeared. "Do not tell anypony unless you have too. Which may be now. But you'll never get the chance." North Star flew into the air.
Moonlight wondered what she meant since he knew and hung out wit a bunch of ponies.
(( Sorry was out making sure I had enough gas to get to school tomorrow. I don't want to be TARDY after all.. :I ))
Rigor watched the strange pony fly off and she looked over at Moonlight, "I suppose that last remark was about you hanging with me?"
((lol))
I have no idea he said honestly.
She looked at the sky, "Well, I don't think that pony has enough power even with an army to take over both Celestia and Luna."
Im still worried either way but it doesnt concern us he said walking back inside.
"True," she shook herself from it. "I'll be inside in a moment, I need to clean these gravestones." She picked up the bucket and stuck her hoof inside to get a sponge as she lovingly started cleaning up a gravestone with great care.
Alright Moonlight started setting up the table and making desert.
Rigor took her time, even speaking to each one. After all these stones are her oldest friends, she was grateful that Moonlight was inside so he couldn't hear her talking to some stones.
Moonlight cleans up the dishes from is cooking spree then decides to look around.
As Light gets off the train he looks around to find the graveyard where his parents have been buried.
Rigor polished the last of the gravestones before smiling, carrying the bucket as she used the last of the water to water a patch of mushrooms and thorns in her garden. The only plants she was able to keep alive under her care.
Moonlight sat on the couch watching tv and laughing.
She looked up about to go inside the funeral home when she noticed a stallion walking by and seemingly confused, "Hello?"
Light replied saying "Hello, I'm here to visit my-my-" Light bursts to tears "parents!"
Moonlight hears somepony crying and decides to go check it out.
Light weeps on how they good they were to him when they just died.
(So sad. D:)
Rigor flattened her ears and stepped back a bit, "I.. oh.." She patted his shoulder with her hoof, "I'm terribly sorry, Mr..."
Moonlight sticks his head out the door to see what was going on.
((After half an hour of weeping.))
"My-" *sniff* "Name is Light."
Moonlight doesnt say anything and just watches.
"Light," she nodded. Within that half hour she had sat down and waited for him to calm down enough, she was used to grieving ponies, though she did wish she had her suit on. "Would you like to come in for something warm to drink and we can talk about it?" she asked.
"Yes miss, I never caught your name." *sniff*
Moonlight goes back inside and hopes the pony crying was alright.
"Rigor, Rigor Mortis," she nodded and started leading the upset pony to her funeral home, "You said you were here to visit your parents correct? Would you like to talk about it?" She held open the door and lead him to a couch where she normally helped other ponies when their family members pass on. "What is your beverage of choice?"
"Some iced tea, me and my family loved it" He said quietly.
Moonlight begins making iced tea after hearing the statement.
Rigor gave a nod and trotted towards the kitchen, "One moment." She saw Moonlight already preparing it and smiled, "Thank you. I'm afraid I have somepony in distress about a loss."
As he got the iced tea from Moonlight he startedto talk about his happy life while his parents were alive.
Moonlight only smiled back and nodded.
At the end Light bro hugs Moonlight for hearing him.
Rigor blinked as Light hugged Moonlight, giving a bit of a laugh. "Do you two know eachother?" she asked Light and Moonlight.
"No, he was just there to here my story.."
Moonlight never being hugged by another stallion did not know how to react.
"It's okay Moonlight, it's just a hug"
Moonlight just gave a nervous smile and decided to heat up dinner.
(( My apologies, I'm working on my essay so I'm a bit slow at responding. X3 ))
Rigor gave a bit of a giggle watching the two of them, "Okay, why don't you come sit down on the couch and drink some ice tea. Let's give Moonlight a chance to breathe and relax." She sorta nudged Light to the couch to have him sit down.
((its fine just finish it up. school comes first ^-^))
Moonlight goes upstairs to go rest his wing he really wanted to stretch out.
As Light approaches Moonlight he says, "What's for dinner? I'm starved."
Whatever is on the counter he said from upstairs.
Iron walks into the square again and sits on the same bench as before, he nuns quietly to himself and looks around the town
As Light grabs the paella ((yum)) from the counter he reheats it and munches down.
Moonlight lays in bed to get his mind off his wing.
Irina walks around the town square with her hood on
Iron spies Irina, he doesn't see too many ponies wearing hoods in this time, he watches her walk, but makes no movement, only his eye keeps track of her
Irina sees Iron but doesn't acknowledge it she just continues to walk
As Light comes out of the Funeral Home he says "Hey, why're you two out late?"
Irina hears the secound voice sha makes a run for it
Iron keeps watch even as she looks at him, he knows she can't tell he is watching her. He chuckles a little then it turns to a cough
"Hey!" Light makes a chase for it.
Irina grins (Knew Somepony would follow me) She keeps running she runs into a warehouse
"Wait! It's not safe in the dark!" Light screams as he chases the anonymous pony.
Irina enters the warehouse
Iron watches her run away and stays motionless on the bench. He sighs
Light enters the warehouse,
inside the warehouse is pitch black you can't see a thing
Iron zooms onto the warehouse and changes lenses, he sees the two ponies walk around in the warehouse
"Well.... Is this my doom?..."
Iron sighs and stands up, he walks slowly to the warehouse. He starts banging on the metal with his hooves, making loud bangs with every hit
" You what are you doing" the warehouse lights up Irina is nowhere a royal guard is standing near the door
Trying to get in... He keeps banging, he starts making small dents
(( Wooooo Done! :P Oh dear it seems I missed quite a bit. ))
Rigor watched as Light grabbed food and ran off, she blinked and turned to Moonlight, "That was... strange...." She blinked realizing Moonlight wasn't there, she trotted a bit to find him in bed. "There you are. Light left.."
"Oh buck" Light says with a frightened face
The guard looks up "didn't see you anyway both of you get out this is private property you aren't met to be here" the guard says magic surrounds the two and he carries them to a pit in the warehouse he throws them down
Moonlight didnt respond since he was out like a light the same way he was before, hoof out and his good wing fully extended
((honestly you didnt miss much.. Light ate and ran off into a new scene. go figure lol))
Light gets flung out and gets knocked out. ((Second time this happened in an RP))
Fuufff... Iron digs into his bag and pulls out a shovel, he starts digging into the side of the pit
(( Lol that's alright. ))
Rigor smiled and pulled a blanket over Moonlight with her teeth before walking to the other side of the bed to lay down. She gave a stretch as she laid there to relax.
((One huge bag))
Moonlight stirred a bit but didnt wake up.
Iron hits Bedrock and it won't break and the top closes Light falls down all the way and is knocked unconscious by the fall
Rigor looked at the bandage around Moonlight's wing, making sure it was secure before smiling. "Silly colt," she muttered as she yawned.
((No pony will help me?))
Moonlight starts unconsciously flapping his good wing as if he is tryna get away from something.
iron is startled by the hit and looks at the unconscious pony, he shakes him
(( We don't know where you are. ))
Rigor raised a brow as she looked at the flapping wing, sitting on the bed as she watched him. Telling herself that she was only watching him to make sure he didn't hurt his other wing.
Moonlight start moving his hooves in a galloping motion and flaps his good wing faster.
Wires begin to wrap around the two tiring them down
Rigor reached a hoof out though she stopped herself for the moment, after all it didn't look like he was hurting his injured wing. "It could still be a good dream..." she muttered.
Iron starts chewing the wires and eating them
Moonlight sits up and opens his eyes while breathing hard and holding his head.
Iron picks Light up and climbs out of the hole he dug and into the pit
"A-Are you alright, Moonlight?" Rigor asked softly, worried about him.
I-Im fine he says as he lays back down to try and go back to sleep.
Iron put Light down and dug in his saddlebag and took out some water, he poured some on Light's face
((what the pit is a straight fall down and it leads to a small room with bars))
((Well thats not what I read..all I read was I was in a pit..))
"Wa-water? I'm alive..?"
Yeah...lil bit....your legs aren't though.. (Your legs are still there...)
"True enough, I can't feel them." Worried Light
Well that will certainly drag our escape... He chuckles
((Well I'm an idiot then because I swear I said that Loght fell into a room when you tried to dig out))
((Ba-dum-tss)) "Just help me outta here. T_T" cried Light
((We just did a universal morph))
"Okay." She laid back down and put her head on her pillow, after all if all they were was nightterrors they couldn't hurt anypony.
Moonlight laid on his side unable to sleep but he didnt want to disturb Rigor so he just laid there motionless all night.
Rigor eventually fell asleep as she tried to keep guard all night. Curled up tight under the blanket as her ears twitched slightly.
The next morning Moonlight was tired but still couldnt get to sleep with out that dream haunting him so he got out of bed without waking Rigor and went outside
Well...do you have a plan to escape? While he asks the question, his unseen robotic eye is looking for possible escape routes
A voice fills the room my my so these are the traitors of this country
"I don't know, my wings are broken."
"...Traitors...?"
She groaned and woke up later, realizing again Moonlight was up and gone before her. "That colt wont stay still will he?" she muttered as she went to brush out her short mane and tail a bit before going to look for him. "Now where did he get to this time?"
Traitors? I don't think so....not in this place in time...
yes you broke into private property and you were caught why were you here
Moonlight was out front laying on the grass finally able to fall asleep with the wind blowing gently.
((okay, seriously Flame...at least TRY and put punctuation....please..))
...Curiosity...
"AH! My head!" Light shreiks
Rigor walked outside seeing Moonlight sleeping, she smiled and walked back inside as she got a blanket. Coming back out she draped it over him and went to take care of small chores around the funeral home.
Moonlight stirred a bit but calmed down.
Well that isn't a good excuse.........Fill the room. shafts open in the room and water pours out
Rigor came out holding a scalpel between her teeth as she stood over him. She pushed the blanket a bit with her hoof so she could look at the bandages that have been there for a few days now. Holding the scalpel carefully she lowered her head in an attempt to cut the bandages off so she could redress the wing.
Iron stares at the water being poured in Fuuffff.... He quickly rummages through his saddlebag furiously
Moonlight stirred again just a bit then calmed down again.
"One big bag..."
Rigor carefully cut away the bandages and took them off his wing. Using her hoof as she moved his wing slightly to stretch it out and flatten the feathers a bit. Once she was satisfied she started re-bandaging the wing making sure the feathers were flat so they wouldn't be bent under the dressing.
Once this is over I'll eat you. TO.THE.BONE the voice says before shutting off
"Quick, you must have a party cannon in there somewhere Iron!"
Moonlight stirred once more this time finally waking up but doesnt move.
Party cannon? Pfff...not strong to shoot me high enough...but I do have this.. Iron pulls out a small metal object and puts it on the ground, he puts his bag on his back and picks up Light he steps on the metal object and waits *tick tick tick tick tick tick...Ding!* Iron and Light are blasted out of the pit and out of the roof of the warehouse
"Caaaaan yoooouuuuuuu carrrrryyyyy meeeeeeeeee, myyyy wiiiinnnggssssss arrre brooookeeeeeennnnnnn! Wooooooooooooaaaaaaaah!!!" Slurred Light
A Joker card lands next to them Irina and her goons are nowhere there is writing on the back o he card
Iron looked down at the ground, they were at least 40 ft up, he needed to act fast, even at this height, his Iron hooves would take a considerable amount of damage. Iron shuffled Light around on his back and braced for impact, he landed and created two large dents in the soft ground. When he hit the ground he heard an eerie snap and crackle of electricity
She picked up her scalpel and the old bandages as she made a move to go back in the funeral home to put them away.
The electricity goes through both of them, "That was scary and painful at the same time. Thanks for saving my life by the way."
Moonlight stood up and quietly followed Rigor with the blanket over his head.
Iron is limp on one side he turns to his left and looks at the ground, and laying in the soft grass, is the bottom half of his leg, connected by only one wire and tube to his body.
The card lands infront of them
She tosses the bandages away and after washing her scalpel she put it with her other tools, not knowing the Moonlight is behind her.
(( Alright. I must go to bed. Going to be waking up at 4:30 for long drive to school. ovO Good night! ))
((good night))
"Let's go to the funeral home, it's nearby, if we crawl our way we can be there by midnight."
Iron's metallic eye looks to the card By the look of that card...it'll be a bit before we're going anywhere....
"I guess so, since we can't fly nor teleport, nor jump, we're stuck.."
((I would pick up the card ))
Teleport?....never thought of that one yet....can you get a certain stone, inside my saddlebag, with sticks going through it and place it next to my good hoof?
"You mean this one?" Light pushes it with his noce onto Iron's good hoof.
Pretty sure... Iron stomps on it and crushes it, it makes a very subtle black explosion that is concealed by Iron's hoof "Only 3 teleports..." He teleports to the abandoned house and leans against the wall, Light falls off his back
((card not picked up Irina has escaped))
"We've escaped, I'm not quite sure if he can see us or not."
Iron looked around, his eye lazily scanned the surrounding area, he didn't care, he needed his leg back Not that I can see.... He slowly wobbled against the wall into another room
"Think we can teleport to the funeral home?"
Not yet....I need to fix my leg... he wobbles into the room and falls onto a desk with a *clung*
"Hey, catch, got some metal here." Said Light throwing the metal with his front hooves.
Iron grabs his other leg and puts it on the table, then he grabs some of the metal Light threw to him Can't you just hand it to me? Or can't you walk yet? blue and red light comes from the room along with a welding sound
"I can't walk and I'm upside down."
Well get better with a stimpak in my bag... should be on the front pocket Iron threw his bag out to him
Light caught the bag.
"What do I do with this?"
In the front pocket there should be a stimpack, stick it in your leg and push down, you should get feeling back.... More welding and light is heard and seen
"Very well."
Few seconds later
"Feels good, thanks"
Iron stops welding and he rewires it Hmmmm....I wonder.... He starts welding again
Light walks in saying "Yo, need any help?"
Sparks are flying everywhere from his leg and the torch, Iron welds it easily and unharmed by them No...
((Brb, going somewhere))
"Okay the."
Iron welded and modified his right hoof for a few moments, then he stops and looks at it, he moves it slightly and it changes into a some sort of grapple gun.
(( Morning all... looks like a lot of you had fun last night.... :c *Applejack snore* ))
((Yeah it was fun. :D))
(( Oh yay. We can see your pony now. :D ))
Rigor was out picking up something to make for the injured Moonlight she was taking care of. Though she hasn't done much "taking care" other than giving him a bed and taking care of his bandages. She was determined to cook something, though after catching every bit of food she had on hoof on fire she decided to just pick something up from the cafe in Ponyville.
Moonlight was in the living room waiting for Rigor to come back smiling happily that today was the last day he had to keep these bandages on his wing.
Rigor returned, though walking slowly as she carried various to-go boxes on her back and balancing a bowl of tomato soup on her head. Taking some time to open the door and try to make her way to the kitchen, stepping back a few times as she tried to balance the stubborn bowl. "Don't look.. I made all of these.. honest.." she muttered.
Moonlight didnt hear anything and laughed at something on tv.
She put all the food boxes and the bowl on the table, hearing the TV she smirked. "Well he is distracted," she muttered as she started moving the food from their boxes to plates and separating the soup into two bowls.
Need any help in there? he asked without turning around.
"Nah!" she called back as she tried to balance his plates to bring them in the living room, "I'm pretty much done. Move back on the couch so I can give you the plates."
Moonlight scoots back and sees the plates. So whats on the menu?
"Something really fancy," she grinned as she pushed a small table in front of the sofa and put his plates on his side. "Artichoke and tomato bisque to start with, followed by a mozzarella basil panini, after that parmesan pumpkin dumplings, and to finish off with a pomegranate sorbet."
Sounds exquisite he said with a smile knowing that she couldn't have made any of it with a burning smell coming from the kitchen.
She licked around her mouth at the sight as she sat down on the sofa as well after she put her own plates on the small table. She had been wanting to get all this for a while now, and what better time than when Moonlight almost has his wing back to normal. She put her hooves around her bowl of soup and started to happily drink it.
Moonlight down his soup quickly then moves on to the panini savoring every bite and smiling. He finishes his panini in two bites and wonders what the dumplings will taste like.
Rigor was taking her time, putting the soup down as she went to her panini. Taking a bite as she smiled brightly, "Mmm.." She looked over at Moonlight seeing him eat quickly, "Enjoying it?"
Moonlight only smiled happily with his tongue hanging out then went straight to eating his dumplings and thought the ingredients used made it easy to remake in a different way.
Rigor laughed as she continued eating her panini and taking her time. She was glad he was enjoying the food she picked out, she wasn't sure about his specific tastes.
Moonlight looked at the sorbet after finishing and thought if he should wait and save it for later.
Finishing her panini she took a bite of the dumplings. Taking her time to enjoy those she looked over at Moonlight and finished chewing before asking, "Is something wrong?"
No..just wondering if i should save it or not he said honestly
Rigor smiled and finished her dumplings quickly so she could grab her own sorbert, "We can eat it now if you want."
Alright Moonlight grabs his sorbet smiling.
She beamed at him and took a bite of the sorbert, her tail swishing side to side rapidly. She loved pomegranate and this was her favorite dessert.
Moonlight took a bite as well and was enjoying it, especially since he never had this kind of dessert before.
Rigor ate this portion quicker than any other, even though she tried to savor it. She was quickly finding herself licking the empty bowl.
Moonlight saw Rigor licking the bowl and laughed then finishes his and lets out a satisfied sigh.
Rigor blushed under her coat but she was too happy licking the bowl clean to stop. Once every bit was gone she put the bowl back on the table and laid on the couch, "That was good.."
Yes it was especially for someone who is used to burning things with a vengeance he laughed.
She covered her face with her hooves, "Oh... hush.. you know I went out to get the food.."
Yes I did actually but I didnt say anything because it was really good and I know you meant well he aid smiling.
((That Moonlight, Rigor storyline))
She looked up at him moving her hooves, "I just wanted to at least give you something good to eat on your last day of being grounded." "I know just how much you want to fly again," she smirked and gave him a nudge against his shoulder with her hoof.
Yeah it'll be great to finally spread my other wing again he said with a smile.
(( Huh? Oh hahaha.. X3 Don't really know what to call it to be honest. ))
"Just don't hurt it again," she smirked, "Last thing we need is our gameshop pony to be depressed for another week."
Moonlight smiled a nervous smile. We'll see
"I'm sure," she smiled, "Besides, don't you live with somepony up in the clouds?"
((Non canon to my capture arc with Driftless))
As Light walks into the store he happily says "Hi guys!"
Nope I moved out and now ive got my own cloud house in between ponyville and the everfree he said happily.
"Oh you moved out?" she asked though she looked at Light who just walked inside the funeral home, "Light?" She blinked several times still laying on the couch, "I.." Rigor was a bit in shock, after all not many ponies come into her funeral home with smiles on their faces.
Moonlight facehoofs caused he never heard of a pony coming into a funeral home happy other than himself.
Light explains "I have no other place to stay soooo.... Do you have any?" Light is embarrassed.
(( Wooo just got out of class. ))
Rigor blinked at Light, "Any what?" She was a bit confused as she sat up on the couch, "I'm not sure what you are asking for."
"Any place to stay...?"
Moonlight looked at Rigor about to laugh but held back.
"Oh.. I.." she blinked, "Sure, I suppose I can make a guest bed somewhere. If you don't mind the smell of formaldehyde."
"I really don't mind." Light cheerfully said.
We'll see he whispered loud enough for Rigor to hear.
She tried to keep the laugh out of her voice but she smiled at Light, "Well let me set up a room for you. You and Moonlight talk or what not." She got off the couch and went upstairs to get a spare mattress, blankets, and pillows before looking for a place she could set Light up in.
As Rigor walked off Moonlight was looking at her with 'dont leave me with him' eyes.
Light stares at Rigor with "Not with him" eyes.
She gave the colts a smirk and a wink before she was off. "Play nice you two!" Though now she was busy with moving the needed supplies for a spare bed into a small room. It took her some time with the room being downstairs and on the other side of the freezer. She pushed some spare boxes and tools, moving them out of her supply room so she could turn that into a bedroom.
Moonlight looked at Light then turned back toward the tv.
Light looked at Moonlight and used his laptop.
Rigor panted slightly as she looked at the new "bedroom" she converted. "That looks good enough," she sighed as she wiped her brow with a hoof. Carefully trotting back towards the living room where she saw the two colts actively ignoring each other.
Moonlight keeps watching tv without saying a word.
"Well, you two are.. getting along..." she spoke to the both of them. Giving a bit of a sigh, "Alright.."
Light replies with a simple "Yes?"
Moonlight got up, turned the tv off and went upstairs to bed.
"Moonlight.." she said with a sigh as he went upstairs. She put her hoof to her forehead as she thought to herself, Well, isn't this just fun.. Turning to Light, "I'm sorry about that, he is just not feeling well. I got you a bedroom set just beyond the freezer. Try not to open one of the boxes, you may not like what you see."
"Okay, I see." Light replied with a happy expression.
Moonlight lays in bed and closes his eyes.
Light sleeps.
"I'm going to check on him to see if he needs his bandages changed," she said to Light and gave a nod of her head. "Enjoy your room," she called to him as she walked up the stairs to check on Moonlight.
Moonlight sat up unable to sleep and sighed.
"Moonlight," she said softly as she walked into her bedroom. Seeing him sitting up she was glad she wasn't waking him, "Are you alright?"
I..can't sleep he said reluctantly and his ears flattened.
As Light wakes up for a snack he grabs his flashlight and trips on something. Light says "What in the-... WHAT THE BUCK, IS THAT A- A-" Light is paralyzed.
"Would you like some tea to help?" she offered and then gave him a tilt of her head, "Or is it something else keeping you awake?"
Her ears flickered hearing a yell, "Celestia's sake..."
I knew he wouldn't be able to handle sleeping in there and no thank you ill be fine
Rigor gave a small kiss to Moonlight's cheek, "I'll be just a moment." She hurried downstairs, she hoped Light didn't hurt any of her "guests" she had. "Light!" she ran towards him and turned on the lights, "What are you doing?!"
Moonlight laid back down and attempted to go sleep.
"I- I- tr- tripped- d an- and -I- I fou- found thi-" FAINT. ((4th faint while RPing.))
Rigor gave a groan, "I worked all day getting that pony to look proper and now you got.." She realized he was fainted and left him on the floor as she picked up the body, not wanting all her hard work ruined by discoloration.
Moonlight finally got to sleep with a sad look on his face from the nightmare he was having.
Rigor got the body safe and sound, taking care to make sure no real damage was done. She looked at the unconscious Light and grabbed him by his tail with her mouth as she dragged him into the living room and put him on the couch. "Stay here," she said to his unconscious body before going back upstairs to check on Moonlight.
*in Light's mind* "What is the monster.... Stop! Get away from my wing... No, No! Aaa-" *reality* "AAAAGH. My wing... It was just a dream.. Phew, wait, what in the world... Oh my Celestia my wing is broken and bleeding."
Moonlight unconsciously tried to extend his bandaged wing and started flapping his good wing as if trying to get away from something.
Rigor was close to going into the bedroom when she heard Light scream again, she groaned "I miss when it was only the dead talking to me..." She went back down stairs, realizing she wasn't going to get any sleep tonight between two colts. "What are you yelling about now?"
"My wing... something in my dream hit it... now it's here..."
Moonlight woke up taking deep breaths and decided to go get some water.
Rigor looked at the bloody mess, "It must have happened when I dragged you to the couch. You should see a doctor, I'm not good with major injuries on the living. Can you walk?"
"Yes, quite difficully though."
Moonlight came down the stairs half asleep and walked to the kitchen and got something to drink.
Rigor called out to Moonlight, "I'm taking Light to the hospital. I'll be home soon." She opened the door of the funeral home and waited for Light to follow, "Take your time, Light. We will get there and you can get treated."
Alright..be careful he called out as he drank the cup of water.
As Light crys, the pain gets worse..
"For the love of..." she sighed and moved so she was under him and stood up so she could carry the stallion on her back, "There. Now hold on tight." She started to run from the funeral home though ponyville as she headed towards the hospital.
As they reach the hospital... ((Light'll pay for the fee.))
Moonlight finishes his water and waits for Rigor on the couch.
Rigor panted as she spoke to the nurse and she lead her to where she could put Light. She put him in a hospital bed and she was ushered out of the room by the doctor. Giving a sigh knowing she can't do more and he was in capable hooves as she walked towards her funeral home to tell Moonlight she got Light safe to the hospital.
Moonlight watches tv while drinking another glass of water.
She walked in the funeral home seeing Moonlight, "Hey.. I'm back. I got him to the hospital.."
Welcome back..what happened to him? Moonlight asked as he got up to greet Rigor.
"I'm not sure," she said a bit worried, "Though it may be because I dragged him by his tail while he was unconscious.." Rigor looked at Moonlight and pressed her nose to his cheek.
I'd hate to say I told you so but I knew it wasn't gonna go well and dont blame yourself for his injury he said honestly.
She smiled and nuzzled her head under his chin, "Thank you, Moonlight. I need somepony to tell me that."
*At the hospital*
"Logically, it's not possible...."
Moonlight smiled. Guess its a good thing im here then
"Yeah," she smiled at him. "Now, would somepony like to tell me why they are having problems sleeping?"
Moonlight felt that question was coming. I honestly dont know..ever since i broke my wing ive been having nightmare of never being able to fly again
Rigor looked at him, "Understandable, but you don't need to worry. You'll be able to start flying tomorrow. That's what the Doctor said."
*a few hours later*
"Well, having a robotic wing is KINDA neat."
Moonlight smiled at that. You're right..I dont know why i thought that
"Probably a bit of stable fever from being unable to fly," she smirked.
After such replacement, i.e robotic wing...
Light flys back to the funeral home saying, "I'm fine... Just a robotic wing. I paid for it all."
Moonlight sighs from hearing Light's voice then decided to try to go back to sleep and went upstairs to bed.
Light walks to Rigor saying, "What's to him? Anything wrong?"
"Nothing really, he is just sore is all," Rigor said with a sigh as Moonlight went upstairs. She looked over at Light, "I am sorry about your wing.."
Moonlight laid in bed and was actually able to get to sleep.
"I see, this robotic wing cost me, but I had to. I could've died." He says looking at his new wing.
(( Got to go to bed. Class tomorrow.))
She felt completely terrible about that and gave a really sad look at the wing. Thinking of an excuse she stretched a bit overplaying her exhaustion. Rigor yawned and went to lay on the couch, "Well.. goodnight Light.."
((Goodnight))
"Good night." Said Light as he slept on a chair.
(( Today has been insane... ))
Rigor woke up early so she could check up on Moonlight who went to bed early last night.
((What happened?))
Moonlight was still fast asleep but had a sad expression on his face.
(( Traffic.. cleaning... a huge exam... :I .. you know the normal. lol ))
Rigor looked at him and put her front hooves on the bed as she looked at his face. She prodded at his side with her hoof as she whispered, "Moonlight?"
(( oh yeah the normal lol))
Moonlight stirred and woke up slowly.
(( Just tired is all. :c ))
Rigor tried to put a smile on for him but she was terribly worried, "Moonlight?"
((a day like that would be tiring so i dont blame you))
Moonlight didnt say a word then sat up and looked around the room and tried spread both his wings.
(( SO my little pony to cheer me up. <3 Plus rping with awesome friends. ))
Rigor gave a sigh and started to undo the bandages, "You can't spread your wing if it's wrapped up."
((always the best medicine ^-^))
Moonlight then spread his wings and smiled.
Rigor smirked, "Want to test them out?"
Moonlight hopped out of bed then opened a window and smirked back at Rigor.
Rigor smiled and walked behind him, "Mind waiting a moment so I can get outside and watch you?"
Sure Moonlight took a step back and waited.
Rigor galloped down the stairs and outside where her window was. Looking up at the window as she called out to Moonlight, "Alright!"
Moonlight got a running start and jumped out the window then extended his wings and started flying.
Rigor's jaw dropped as she watched him fly, turning so she could keep her eyes on him as he flew though the sky.
Moonlight wanted to make sure he hadn't gotten rusty during his week of being grounded and decided to do some simple loop de loops and freefalls.
Rigor sat and looked up at Moonlight, watching him do his tricks. Even though he may consider them simple, each one was amazing to her. She could only image what flying was like.
Moonlight flew up to a high altitude then divebombed at mach 2 speed then instantly pulled back up inches before hitting the ground.
Rigor's eyes widened but she clopped her Wooves together when he pulled up just in time, "Deadly vu!"
Moonlight decided to do it once more since he actually had an audience this time but instead did it at an angle toward Rigor.
"EPP!" she squeaked and ducked, putting her hooves over her head as he dived at her.
Moonlight smirked then as he passed over her he grabbed her and held her tight when pulling up.
Rigor's eyes snapped open and widened as she was grabbed, realizing the ground she was against just moments before was starting to leave.
Moonlight decided since he was holding somepony he just fly around ponyville calmly and at a decent speed.
Rigor's hooves kicked as she panicked for a moment, obviously not used to not having all her hooves on the ground. As much as she idolized flying the actual movement was freaking her out a little. Taking a breath as she tried to stay perfectly still, envisioning Moonlight dropping her. "I...." she was about to asked to get put down but her eyes caught how ponyville looked from being up so high, "....oh.."
I figured you would like to see ponyville from a different perspective and don't worry I've carried plenty of ponies so carrying you is easy.
Rigor smirked, "You are lucky I'm not one of those silly fillies that get jealous." Normally she would flick her tail at him but she didn't want to distract him, granted she did trust him to an extent he wouldn't drop her on purpose, she didn't want to risk it. "Ponyville looks beautiful up here," she commented as she looked down.
Moonlight smiled then decided he would take her to see his cloud house and took off in that direction.
Rigor blinked and tried to look at everything at once, her eyes focused at the ground.
Moonlight pulled up to his cloud house which was made out of inactive thunder clouds except for one, provided to him by the weather factory while only his door was pure white with a joystick for the door knob.
Rigor looked at the cloud house in awe, "Thunder clouds? Isn't that a bit dangerous?" She smiled looking at it, the clouds did look comfortable.
No worries..they're inactive, well except one but thats just to power the electronics in there other than that its totally safe Moonlight puts Rigor down on the doorstep then opens the door.
Rigor panicked as he went to put her down, "No wait! I can't walk on clouds!" She tried to hold on to him, not wanting her hooves to fall though the cloud layer.
Moonlight laughed. Come on let go and trust me you will be fine
"What do you mean I'll be fine!" she exclaimed in panic, "I'm not a pegasus...." She held onto him and carefully went to touch the dark clouds with one of her back hooves to test it.
((What'd I miss?))
Moonlight only laughed some more then made her let go.
(( Moonlight can fly again.. it's the next day. Rigor is afraid she is going to die from falling though the clouds. Side note. Started a new furcadia account because I found out there is a way to play my little pony on it with your own customized pony. Mostly it's just to run around and rp but I'm just amused by that. Wish this one was out already.))
Rigor screamed as she was forced to let go and fell towards the dark stormy cloud layer.
Moonlight landed next to her. Whats with all the screaming? he said while laughing.
((furcadia? o.O))
(( I'll pm you it because I not too clear about the rules here. ))
Rigor opened her eyes and breathed heavily, "I.. I'm alive?"
Of course you are silly mare. You think I'd just drop a pony to her death for some kind of sick amusement. my cloud house is made of cloud that can support other ponies other than pegasi.
Rigor had half a mind to tackle him, but her heart was pounding too hard in her chest. "Right... just stay still.. when my hooves work again you will be afraid.." she muttered laying on the dark clouds.
Moonlight did just that while laughing loudly.
Rigor growled and got to her hooves as she lowered her head and kicked at the clouds as if it was dirt and charged him. "Is this funny?" A smirk was on her lips though as she was trying to act upset, to be honest she would be laughing too if she saw some pony do something so foolish.
Actually yes it is he said straightforwardly and honestly.
Rigor pounced on him and raised her hooves as if she was going to strike him, though she only aimed her hoof at his hair to mess it up. "Jerk."
Hehe..Your cute when your mad you know that he said grabbing her tail with his without her knowing.
Rigor's cheeks reddened under her coat as she tried to put on a fierce face though she was a bit embarrassed, "No I'm not..." She tried to move her tail as she does when she is nervous and realized it wasn't moving, turning to look at it as she fixed him with a look. "Let go of my tail.." though she was amused.
Nope..and you can't make me he said laughing.
"Oh yeah?" she started trying to shake her tail free from him and even went as far as to try to run to the other side of the dark clouds.
Moonlight's tail strength wouldn't allow Rigor to get free so instead he walked into his house while 'dragging' Rigor inside as well.
Rigor pouted and laid down as he dragged her, looking around as she was lead inside the cloud home. She had to hand it to the pegasi, their homes were comfy to be dragged around in.
As he 'lead' Rigor inside there was a clutter of unfinished games by the tv and unfinished consoles in a corner of the room. Up on the wall all of the first copies of his finished games and game series were shelved covering up and entre wall.
Excuse the stuff everywhere..genius does occasionally come with a mess. he said letting go of Rigor's tail.
Rigor stood up and shook out her tail a bit before looking around. "I see," she muttered walking over to where unfinished consoles were to look at them. "It's not so bad though.."
Well honestly some of them would be done by now but working on both consoles and games and running the store to sell them doesn't help with the release dates he said walking to the kitchen.
"I can imagine," she smirked as she followed Moonlight. "Why don't you get some help, I'm sure a few foals would be happy to do so," thinking about it, "Or are you like me and don't trust other ponies?"
Moonlight gets a glass of water. Well its not that i dont trust them..its just that i doubt anypony would be able to understand how the programming and complicated parts of the consoles work. It took me years to finally make a working replica of the console i found and I doubt anypony could do the same.
Rigor nodded at that as she looked around the cloud home. "I can understand that, though perhaps they could work something simple? Handling the cleaning at the store or what not."
Moonlight shook his head. That would be good but the store is always clean because I can clean it faster than anypony else
"I see," she got distracted and went to look at the game wall, "Ooooo..."
Like em?..those are the very first copy of the games I've released so far. Even the PonyFighter series you can't beat me at he said teasingly.
Her tail swished back and forth as she looked at the wall, "They are amazing.." She gave him a look over her shoulder, "Well you know everything in it.. so it's kinda like cheating."
Nope. It's called legit strategies. he said smiling then gong to the couch.
"I still say we should have an embalming contest," she muttered still looking at all the games. After a moment she turned around to see him already near the couch.
Moonlight ear flickered hearing that statement but ignored it then turned on the tv and his PonyStation 2 and started his unfinished copy of Equestria Hearts.
Rigor walked over looking at the tv, her eyes widened at it, "What is that?"
My latest unfinished project.I call it Equestria Hearts. Basically you can choose to be a Stallion or a mare and you start out in ponyville until a sinister storm approaches and then ponyville is sucked into darkness and you along with it but I still need to work on the enemies and the other worlds you have to thru he sighed.
Rigor jumped on the couch as her short tail swished side to side excitedly, "Oh?! That sounds exciting!"
You can try it if you want. The first two worlds are done and its enemies are in there two. The enemies are called heartless and they feed off the darkness in everypony's heart turning them into heartless as well and the only weapon that can destroy them is a keyblade. You get it after a certain event in the first world. he said handing the controller over.
Rigor smirked and took the controller, getting used to the movement before rushing off in the game to find the nearest battle. "Two worlds huh? Is it like two different places in Equestria or is it Equeastra and some strange other world?"
Equestria and a strange other world
Rigor grinned and leaned back against Moonlight as she played, "I'm excited to see what world you created with your imagination."
I'm sure you will get a big surprise out of it too
"I can't wait!" she ran her character though every battle trying to rush to the new world.
Moonlight laughed. No need to rush you know
Rigor tilted her head back to look at him, giving a pout and her eyes widened with a sad puppy dog look, "But.. I want to play it.."
Moonlight thought how unfair it was that that had worked in her favor. Alright alright go ahead
She grinned and kept playing as she was finally able to go into the other world, "Deadly vu!"
The other world was called Wonder Land and the enemies there were faceless cards of spades and hearts and new types of heartless.
Rigor's eyes widened as she looked at the world, spinning her character around just so she could look at it.
Do you like it? he asked smiling already knowing the answer.
"I -love- it!" she said excitedly, "This is amazing!"
Moonlight came up with a wild thought. Would you like to be my beta-tester?
"Beta tester?" she asked, giving him a confused look that turned into excitement, "Really?!"
Moonlight nods. A beta tester is somepony who gets to play and test the games before they get released
Rigor was excited about it though she tried to bring herself down, "I don't know if I have enough time to dedicate to it. I would love to beta test when I'm not working. Would that be enough or would you need some other pony who has more time?"
Your schedule is fine considering the time I'll need to make more world and enemies and beta testers get a copy of the game before anypony else
(( that makes no sense since you have no idea where Moonlight lives. just saying))
((Buck, let me delete and rephrase.))
"Before anypony..." she grinned happily at the thought, "I would love to be a beta tester. Sounds like a lot of fun."
I knew you'd love the idea he said smiling.
(( It's okay take your time. ))
Rigor enjoyed the new world and played it happily until it cut off, "That's it?"
Sadly yes.. he said putting his tail around Rigor.
She sighed and put the controller down, "Well, the parts I got to play where quite fun. I like that "wonderland" area."
Well you could always replay it but that's up to you
She thought about it, picking up the controller again as she made her character just run all over where she could. Fighting and re-fighting the cards, "Heh.. this is strangely soothing."
Games don't just have to be for competition, they can be used to relax which I think your starting to understand
"Well, I usually played by myself so all I could do on it was to compete against computer players. Besides, the only ponies around when I played were my "guests"."
If you want you could always come over if you want to relax since cloud homes do tend to be better places for that
"And how, do you expect me to get up here?" she asked as she leaned back so she can rest against him as her eyes stayed on the tv, "I can't exactly walk over."
You know the places i appear at and ill make an appearance at the funeral home from time to time to make sure you're eating right he said smiling and rubbing her back with his tail.
"There is that," she put the controller down and moved so she could look at him, strangely finding it comforting to have her back rubbed. "Eating right? Do you know me, good sir? Charcoal happens to be a staple of my diet," she smirked.
Well then thank Celestia I'm here to fix that he said poking her face and still rubbing her back
"What if I liked it..." she said being poked and turned her head to lick his hoof to get him to stop poking her.
(( Honestly.. I do that.. lol I lick people when they poke or cover my mouth.. it always works to get them to let go. No one expects it. ))
((lol that honestly wouldn't bother me))
Moonlight laughed and kept doing it. Im sure your stomach disagrees
(( lol ))
Rigor licked a few times before giving up, "Well.. my stomach can take one for the team."
Moonlight stops poking her face and tickles her. Well maybe your stomach has gone insane
Rigor's eyes shrank before she gave a scream followed by laughter, she was really ticklish. Squirming she went to jump off the couch to get away, "NO!"
Moonlight chased after her. Your running from a pegasus..good luck getting away he said laughing.
"I can so get away!" she yelled, though she didn't believe it looking at the cloud flooring, after all she was stuck in midair basically. She backed up against one of the cloudy walls, "Um.. uh..."
Moonlight had her cornered and approached slowly but instead of his original intention of tickling her her stood there laughing hysterically. You-you should see your face..I told you you weren't gonna get away
Rigor blinked for a moment as he laughed and then stuck out her tongue, "Oh you are the worst.." Though she started laughing, imagining the look on her own face.
Moonlight walked up to her and nuzzled her. I'm sorry Rigor but i just couldn't resist
"I can see that," she laughed and found herself nuzzling back, "I would have done the same."
No you wouldn't have cause i would have flown away before then he said with a sly smirk
"I should bind your wings to your body," she countered, "then you couldn't escape so easily."
Moonlight unable to say anything to that only hugged his wings not wanting to be grounded again after his nightmare filled week.
((Where are you..?))
(( Currently? In Moonlight's house.. As for where.. Rigor doesn't know.. she was carried there and was too busy looking at things. ))
She rolled her eyes, "I was joking," shaking her head, "silly colt."
((Welp, I wait with my robotic wing))
Moonlight sighed in relief. Well anyway I'm sure your 'friends' down at the funeral home miss you so leats head back Moonlight laid down so she could climb on his back.
As Light stayed at the funeral home he made a gift for Rigor for taking care of him... A Pbox 360.
She laughed, "I suppose, I can't keep them waiting." Rigor carefully got on Moonlight's back and held around his neck with her hooves.
He wrapped it as fast as he could... In record time he finished. ((Note: Light holds no feelings of love for ANYPONY, just a heads up.))
Moonlight spread his wings and flew thru his door then toward the funeral home.
Light was finally ready, he wanted to see Rigor and Moonlight's faces.
(( Lol alright. ))
Rigor was too busy looking at the clouds and the ground to pay attention to how fast they were going. She loved the feeling of the wind in her mane, as she "flew" on Moonlight's back.
Moonlight landed in front of the funeral home. Final destination: ponyville funeral home. Please don't forget your luggage and thank you for riding with us Moonlight said with a smile.
As Moonlight and Rigor landed Light was jumping around with eyes of glee.
"Should I tip my pilot too?" she smirked as she hopped off Moonlight and gave him a flick of her tail against one of his wings. She looked at Light and waved her hoof, "Good morning, did you just wake up?"
Moonlight flinched from the contact. A kiss for the pilot would be appreciated. then upon hearing Light's voice he sighed.
Light looked at both Rigor and Moonlight and pointed at the Pbox and HD TV.
Rigor rolled her eyes for a moment at Moonlight, taking a few steps as if she was going to walk ahead. Though she turned back and pressed a quick kiss to his cheek before looking at what Light was showing. "Where did you get those?" she asked him. Considering the pony had no place to sleep she couldn't fathom how he got a hold of such things.
"I know a few ponies in Canterlot." Light said.
Moonlight smiled from the kiss then looked at Light. That doesnt make any sense. The Pboxes in sold in Canterlot are rediculously expensive thats why ponies prefer me over them but who could you possibly know to get a hold of one?
"There's Flash Drive..... Ponystop..... " Light griefed.
Rigor looked between the two of them, debating if she should go make a cup of tea. Honestly she knew that wouldn't help, though she needed something to distract them. Tea wouldn't work, come on Rigor.. think of something that can distract two stallions... she thought to herself before getting an idea. "Look, zomponies!" she pointed with her hoof as she took off towards her graveyard.
"What." said Light as he looked at the graveyard.
Moonlight looked at Rigor and raised an eyebrow.
Rigor ran into the graveyard and sighed, seeing a squirrel she picked it up by it's tail. Muttering around it, "Sorry mister squirrel but I need you to distract two stallions from arguing."
Light said, "So anypony want to try this Pbox? I got Ponyfield, Ponies Creed III, and Colterlands 2."
Rigor trotted back with the squirrel in her mouth, showing it to them before putting it on the ground. "False alarm.. not a zombie pony," she looked at Light, "Sure, aren't those mostly one pony games?"
(( Alas.. I must sleep. Been tired all day. See you both tomorrow! ))
((See ya laters))
Moonlight only stayed quiet not knowing what to say.
((Sure, night))
"I have Call of Cutie : Modern Hayfield 1, 2, and 3 too." Light said.
(( Morning. Wont be here long. Got cat adoptions today. Little feral kittens growing up. ))
"Well those sound interesting," she looked between the both of them, "I suppose we play the newest one?"
((aww))
You guys have fun..I have stuff to take care of at the store he said knowing that the way he said stuff was a terrible excuse while taking off.
Rigor looked after Moonlight as he took off, giving a sigh. Stubborn colt.. she thought, though she didn't blame him after all he ran a gamestore and hearing about another one must be upsetting. She looked at Light, "So, how do you play the games you have?"
Moonlight landed in front of his store and slightly cursed out the competition for allowing some random stallion to bring their heartless, loveless wares here of all places. I need to calm down he said as he went in and went straight to the back room
"Hey moonlight" Vanguard said as he approached with clear tape stuck to him " i am just getting over some allergies and i make deck boxes from the medicine boxes top of the line in recycling but it usually means a lot of tape is there any on me?" having an idea there might be some on his neck.
Moonlight stopped and turned around and saw Vanguard with tape stuck to him. Yes, yes there is he said laughing.
"could you get it? I can't seem to reach it." turning his head barely able to reach it.
I dont think thats a good idea
" not trying to stereotype or anything but if you could move a little cloud over and make the tape on my neck less sticky with rain or something please. when i use magic with tape things get tricky it's kinda why that tape is here on my neck in the first place"
Well ill try Moonlight grabs a random thunder cloud and hovers it over Vanguard then jumps on it to make it rain.
the tape starts to lose its stick and falls off "OH THANK YOU !!! I am so happy the tape was starting to irritate me . " Vanguard jumps up and gives moonlight a big hug.
Moonlight pushes Vanguard off him. I was happy to help but don't ever hug me again
" :s Okay i won't sorry about that i got a little over excited next time i will just use the faucet in the library's kitchen i was just so excited about finishing the deck box then realizing i had tape on my then you helped and i just got SO EXCITED!!! but X3 I'm better now." vanguard stops hugging and blushes some more. " i really need to control myself i get over excited sometimes"
Yeah you really need to work on that
((Anyone free for one? I'm really bored.... :l ))
"well i gotta go twilight is probably expecting me back hopefully i won't be held up for as long as i was and I will definitely work on controlling my excitement,so I will talk with you later , Bye" vanguard walks back to the library wondering what Twilight would have in store for him.
((You can join me))
Moonlight waves goodbye then heads inside his store like he originally planned.
Driftless Night opens the door and walks inside. He looks through and aisle as though he knows what he wants, but not where it is.
Moonlight heard the door open behind him and turns around. Oh hello. Do you need any help finding something?
"Yes, I would like a new gaming device....my old one broke so I need a new one"
No problem. What kind was it?
"An PBox 360 Elite"
Of course. I got one in the back. Let me go get it. Moonlight then heads tothe back room and grabs one then comes back. All right. Is that all for today?
"Do you have a really good, bass enhanced headset?"
Of course. Moonlight grabs a custom headset from behind the counter. Anything else?
"Hmmmm...nope thats it."
Alright that'll be 160 bits total. he said with a smile.
"Alright..." Driftless reaches into his wing and pulls out a large bag of bits and places it on the table "I think this should cover it...."
All right enjoy and if you anything else just come on by whenever he said with a caring smile.
"Alright, thanks" He picks up the PBox 360 and headset and walks to the door and leaves
After making a sale Moonlight went to the back room to unwind with the console back there.
Driftless flew home and tried his new console.
Iron came out of the abandoned house, his normal eye was slightly bloodshot from playing all night and day. He walk to the store and looked up at the roof, he scaled the wall by grabbing onto loose pieces of bricks and wood, he got on the roof and looked over Ponyville
After a few games Moonlight came out of the back room stretching from being victorious in ever match.
He looked back down on the roof, changed lenses and looked through the roof, and could see the pony and merchandise below him, he smiled slightly
Moonlight decided to go some reshelving and move some stuff around before he should call it a day
Now all I gotta do is wait for him to leave... He sat down, still looking through the roof
After he finished rearranging things and made sure everything seemed presentable he left the store and did his usual procedure to keep it safe then flew off
Iron ducked down and watched him walk away, he smirked Good thing I have my blade move... He removed a small handle from his saddlebag. He then pushed a small button on the pummel of the handle, he flipped it and a red energy blade came out. He stuck in the roof, cut a circle in it and jumped through.
A barrier became active inside the store forcing Iron back out the way he came
Iron lands back on the roof Hmmm....not what I expected...but not hard to deal with... He reached inside his saddlebag, pulled out a small blue sphere, he held it in his hoof and hit certain panels on it, it became clear, he pressed it to his chest and it soaked into his metal chest. He jumped down the hole again being unaffected by the barrier.
>:O DAANGGGGGGGGIT
-spectrum would shriek in anger as she had woken up within her home in the sewer once more-
(( Pirates of the Emerson was FUNNNN! *Bounces from the high of eight haunted houses in a row* :D ))
Rigor swished her short tail happily as she pranced towards Ponyville town square.
((lol))
Moonlight quietly follows Rigor from the sky snickering to himself.
She was humming happily and bouncing her head as she headed towards Sugarcube Corner.
Moonlight got real close and poked her flank then hid on a nearby cloud.
Rigor jumped in the air and easily cleared a foot as she turned, looking around. "Who's there!" she yelled out angrily, realizing no one was there she blinked and blushed red feeling insane.
Moonlight came back down and did it again and hid on the same cloud.
Rigor jumped again and growled, "Okay.. now you better stop." She was warning as her black mane seemed to move slightly, the reason she was so happy earlier was one of the spiders egg sacks hatched thousands of babies in her home. She was taking them to other places in Ponyville so they can thrive in new homes, she was hiding them in her mane.
Moonlight did it once more and stayed there.
Rigor turned around and growled, her hoof digging into the ground. Ready to attack the first pony she saw, though to her surprise it was Moonlight. "M-Moonlight?"
Moonlight kissed her nose. Yup that's my name
Her cheeks flushed as he kissed her nose, "I.. somepony is.." She blinked and then fixed him with a look, "You were the pony poking me.."
Rigor only a pegasi could poke an earth pony and get away with it hesaid grinning then kissed her nose again.
She muttered, "And only -you- could do that to me and not get the hay bucked out of you." Rigor smiled though, as a baby spider crawled over her forehead, "Anyway, it's strange to see you out and about this early. Usually you are in your shop."
Moonlight noticed the spider. Mobile guests now?
"Mmm?" she questioned before looking up at her mane, "Oh!" Rigor laughed, "They just hatched and I'm finding them new homes and places to live. I can't keep them all in my house after all. So I'm just wandering around until," as she spoke one of the spiders released a thread and jumped off her floating away towards a bush, "well, do that."
Well alright then Moonlight kissed her then landed on her back and stood there using his wings to keep himself as light as a feather. Where were you going?
"Sugarcube corner," she smiled as started to walk back in the direction she originality was headed, "I'm sure they could use a spider to keep the flies away from their sweets."
Moonlight thought about it. I guess that makes sense. He stood turned around still on her back then poked her flank again.
((Any way I can jump in?))
((sure. we are headed to sugarcube corner))
Tiger was eating a muffin in Sugarcube Corners.
Rigor rolled her eyes after she jumped a bit at his poking, "You have an obsession with my flank, you know that?" She smirked and stood outside Sugarcube corner letting a few spiders go into the bushes outside. She waited until the ones that wanted off were safe before stepping inside.
(( Of course. Just hop on in! ))
I guess your right. He got off her back and decided to go inside. Would you like a cupcake?..my treat.
Tiger noticed Rigor enter Sugarcube corners. "Haven't seen you around these parts yet."
Rigor smiled at Moonlight's offer, she wasn't sure how to answer it properly. A small, "Yes, thank you," escaped her though a few of her spiders hopped off and vanished somewhere in Sugarcube corner. Her eyes turned to Tiger, "Likewise."
Moonlight walks to the counter and is greeted by Mrs. Cake. Two cupcakes please he said while putting the amount of bits on the counter.
Coming right up dear Mrs Cake goes into the kitchen and grabs two cupcakes and comes back.
Moonlight took the cupcakes and sat at a table and started eating one.
Rigor joined Moonlight as she sat at a table, "Thank you." Holding the cupcake between her hooves. "It's nice to meet you... um..." she didn't know Tiger's name and took a bite of her cupcake so she didn't have too much of an awkward pause.
Moonlight finished his cupcake then decided to hover over the table.
Rigor looked up at Moonlight as he hovered over the table, finishing her cupcake before questioning him, "What are you doing?"
((I'm back.))
Moonlight looked down at Rigor. Nothing really. He then picks up Rigor. Say your goodbye and we can go. I have something at the store I wanna give you
(( Welcome back ))
Rigor blinked as she was picked up, squirming a bit before settling down. Trying to make sure he didn't crush any of the spiders in her mane, she turned to Tiger, "Um.. good bye. I suppose we can talk later." Though she was curious what Moonlight was talking about, "Give me? You got me a cupcake.."
As Light played Call of Cutie he was confused why Moonlight didn't like him staying with Rigor.
Moonlight carried her to his store being careful not to hurt her new friends in mane. Nope..something else
Rigor waved her hoof to a few of the spiders who decided to "hop off" and find their new homes with the breeze. She smiled as she watched them float along until she couldn't see the small specks anymore, "Something else?"
Moonlight lands outside his store and puts Rigor down then walks inside and goes straight to the back room. That's right he said before getting out of view.
Rigor walked inside after him, standing in the front of the store as he vanished in the back room. She waited and saw some of her spiders jump off of her and vanish into Moonlight's store, she tried to get them to come back but the little babies were gone too quickly. Giving a sigh she shook her mane slightly and waited to see how many spiders were left, there was only one and it walked to the end of her nose. She smiled and laughed at the little thing as it crawled around her face.
((Oh, I forgot I was roleplaying here... Oh well ovO))
Moonlight came out with a copy of a game that read Super Pony Fighter IV. Here it is. First finished copy..well after mine that is. he said walking up to Rigor with it.
((lol we basically just left for my store which is right down the road))
((Come now, Tiger! We musn't waste time looking forn an RP'er!))
(( Lol it's alright. It happens to the best of us. ))
Rigor's eyes widened as the baby spider had to cling for dear life on her nose as she bounced up and down. She realized what she was doing and went red as she coughed and tried to pretend that didn't happen. "I mean.. really?" she asked her pitch a bit high as she looked at Super Pony Fighter IV, "I get to have it?"
So Light flew out of the funeral home flying to get a snack.
Yup and the best part is the game wont release for another 2 months and it''ll have online multiplayer meaning any other pony with the game regardless of he console will be able to fight against one another. he said smiling.
Tiger came out of Sugarcube Corners, then started flying about.
As Light looked down he saw a tiger-colored pony,
Tiger decided to look up at that split second, and saw Light looking at her. Half a second later, her sight of him was blocked by clouds.
Rigor grinned at that, "So.. I'll be able to kick everyone's flank at it when they get to start playing in two months!"
Light curiously followed the tiger pony.
Naturally he said with a grin. Moonlight walked underneath her and lifted her onto his back then walked outside.
Rigor held the game between her hooves like it was a priceless possession, she looked at him as she rode on his back. "You do realize I can walk?" she asked him, though she wasn't objecting to it.
(( Go to go to bed everypony! See ya tomorrow! ))
((See ya))
"Hey, tiger pony, why's Discord out of the prison of stone? Hes right there..."
Yeah i know he then spread his wings and took off to the funeral home.
((night. I'm gonna attempt to do the same))
((Try and follow the storyline))
Quote from: Doctor Light on 2012 Oct 15, 04:45:10
((See ya))
"Hey, tiger pony, why's Discord out of the prison of stone? Hes right there..."
"Huh!?" Tiger followed Light's gaze, but saw nothing. "...Is this a joke?"
"No... Look at the distance.. See those beams?"
Tiger looks. "Yeah...?"
As Light takes out binoculars he says to Tiger "Catch, then look at it."
Tiger grabs it and takes a look. "Ah..."
"I have a bass cannon, wanna help me bring it?" Light said
"Being Discord, he'd just make it fall upwards," Tiger said as she looked back at Light.
"Meh, it makes it easier Twi won't make it there fast enough. Off to the Bass Cannon!" Light extravagantly said.
"I guess so." Tiger followed Light.
Light landed at Canterlot showing Tiger his Bass Cannon "Two ponies can lift this fast enough to get this to Discord."
Rigor laid on his back and looked around, she was really starting to enjoy "flying" as she closed her eyes and felt the wind going though her mane.
I know you can't fly but how does it feel to 'fly'? He asked deciding to take the long way since she was enjoying it.
"It makes me wish I was born a pegasus," she muttered as she opened her eyes to look at everything. It was all so wonderful, she couldn't imagine how any pegasi wouldn't fly all the time.
I'm glad you enjoy it up here Moonlight smiled and wondered if she would get upset or would her adrenaline start pumping if he did a few simple tricks and decided to let whatever happens happen and did a small loop de loop at a mild speed.
Rigor's eyes widened and she put her hooves around Moonlight's neck as he made a small loop de loop, she blinked and started laughing loudly. "That was fun!"
Well then hold on tight Moonlight started to gain some speed and started flying around in one spot.
She grinned as she held on, the wind running though her mane, coat, and her short tail as Moonlight sped up.
Moonlight flew around in a circle continuously until he formed his own controlled twister then flew out the middle into a huge loop.
She laughed, finding her stomach seeming to float inside her. It was amazing, she grinned and nuzzled the back of one of Moonlight's ears. "Thank you.."
Moonlight smiled then finally landed outside the funeral home.
Rigors mane was standing up on end and a frizzy mess as she laughed and jumped off his back, "Oh that was fun!"
Moonlight ginned with his wings still wide as i he was on a pedestal. I'm glad you had fun.
She smiled and pressed a kiss to his lips, her tail swishing before she broke it and stammered on excitedly, "Oh I had a -lot- of fun. I understand why you were so upset when your wing didn't work. I wouldn't ever want to leave the sky."
Well whenever I'm around I can be your personal transport to anywhere in Equestria
"I don't want to make you a taxi," she said though her eyes were sparkling from the idea of being able to see Ponyville from a different view.
I'm totally fine with it..just say the word and it'll be set in stone
Rigor thought about it and smiled as she nuzzled him, "Please? I would love that."
Moonlight nuzzled her back. Of course. I wouldn't have it any other way.
She swished her tail and beamed, she really did like "flying". "Thank you. I wouldn't be able to trust anypony else."
Thats because nopony else has earned that trust that first started out with a massage he said grinning sheepishly.
She blushed at that, "Well.. I suppose that is true..."
Hehe..aww you're blushing again he said teasingly.
She made a noise of frustration at her body showing her emotions so well, "Yeah.. well.. you just make my blood rush strangely.."
Well I'm glad I can have that effect on you he continued in his teasing tone of voice.
Rigor rolled her eyes, though that was mostly to distract herself and to keep herself from turning a darker shade of red. "Of course you are," she commented, "Anyway.."
Moonlight smirked then quickly got behind her and poked her cutie mark and stood there.
Rigor jumped a bit and looked at him, "You have the weirdest obsession with my flank."
As long as you keep reacting like that then I don't have a problem with you thinking that
She pretended to be annoyed but she had a smirk on her face as she flicked her tail at his hoof, "My reaction is that amusing?"
Yup he said plainly.
She shook her head and thought about it, she would need to come up with something to make him react hilariously to counteract his poking.
While Rigor was lost in thought he poked her flank once more.
Rigor was too distracted trying to think of something to disturb the pony, she jumped and gave a squeak that she quickly tried to cover with her hoof.
Moonlight snickered from hearing the quickly covered up sound.
"Oh laugh it up," she commented and turned to look at him.
Moonlight smirked. That was a cute sound you just let out
Quote from: Doctor Light on 2012 Oct 15, 10:05:21
Light landed at Canterlot showing Tiger his Bass Cannon "Two ponies can lift this fast enough to get this to Discord."
"Yeah, sure. Let's do this quick," Tiger said.
(( Back from class.. ovO ))
"It wasn't cute," she said giving a bit of a pout.

Yes it was Moonlight said nuzzling her.

"Let's do THIS!"
"Yeah, sure," Tiger said rather calmly, doubting it would work, and lifted the cannon.
"Pffft, it worked in epic wub time." Light exclaimed as he read Tiger' thought bubble.
"It's not respectful to read other pony's thought bubbles. Anyway, we should hurry."
After caerying the cannon and moving forth for a while, they see Discord in a distance.
"My forth wall, anyways, we can shot it from here.. Aim for Discord!" Says Light as they let down the cannon."
"You are lucky I let you get away with that," she muttered and nuzzled him back.
You wouldn't hurt me..would you? he said with extremely sad eyes.
She flattened her ears, "No! No, I wouldn't hurt you!"
Moonlight laughed. Note to self..use that face to get out of trouble.
Rigor gave a frown at him and flicked her tail against his flank, "Jerk."
Moonlight gave her a kiss. Cheer up. I'll take you to Cloudsdale. he said smiling.
"Cloudsdale?" she asked, already beaming though the kiss helped. "Oh! Will I get to see the Rainbow Factory?!"
Of course. Hop on. He lowered himself a bit.
"Let me put the game away first," she pranced inside her funeral home and placed the game on her living room table before coming back out. Excited as she climbed on Moonlight's back.
(( EEEE! *Hugs Pinkie Pie xmas bobble and glow in the dark Zecora.* I normally don't get Xmas Stuff till December but I made an exception for Pinkie. ))
((Pinkie is always the exception))
Moonlight takes off at high speed towards Cloudsdale.
(( Of course. :D ))
Rigor held on as tight as she could as she could start to see Cloudsdale grow in the distance.
Moonlight flies thru the cloud layer and hovers over their destination. Welcome to Cloudsdale
"It's.. It's beautiful..." she muttered as she looked at it. Holding onto him tight, after all she knew Cloudsdale's cloud layer were not for Earth ponies to walk on.
Don't worry I'm not gonna force you off this time he said laughing then landing and started walking thru the cloud town.
"You better not, I don't really desire being a smear on the ground and joining my other "guests"," she smirked and pressed a kiss to the back of one of his ears. Her eyes wide and sparkling as she looked around the floating city.
Moonlight walks up to the flight school. There's the flight school that yours truly went to and passed second in his class
"Passed, what? I'm sorry I didn't hear that Moonlight," she grinned looking at the flight school.
His ears flattened. I passed second in my class he said as he started to head towards the weather factory.
"Second is really good!" she smiled and looked ahead as her eyes sparkled at the weather factory. "Oh! The Rainbow Factory next?!"
I was second to Rainbow Dash he said walking up to the factory.
(Mind if I jump in?)
A tall, blueish pony in a Cloudsdale standard uniform stopped the two.
"This is the Rainbow Factory. I'm in charge of security here. Do you have business here?"
((sure come on in))
I was just showing my marefriend around Cloudsdale and she wanted to see the rainbow factory as well
"Mm, I see. You'll need guest passes, then. We've had to step up security here. There's been a string of pranksters lately, who've been causing no end of mischief."
The mare tilted her head while walking away, gesturing the other two to follow her.
Moonlight followed. I knew security was already tight but sheesh, anyway how did pranksters get away with stuff like that here of all places
Rigor smiled and rubbed her hoof against Moonlight's mane, "I see. Though I don't think any pony can compare to her." She was quite shocked at the mare pegasus and was about to speak until Moonlight called her a "marefriend" she went red and couldn't speak. Her mind trying to process that phrase and overthinking it, as she tried to rationalize it in her own way.
(( Sorry was writing down some family history. ))
The Pegasus sneered.
"Nopony here, expect me takes these kinds of jobs seriously; even a clumsy griffon could sneak past them. They had to call me down here to deal with the issue myself. There's honestly better use of my talents than to deal with children with too much time on their hooves."
So then why accept coming down here he then turned around and saw Rigor speechless then he smirked and kept walking.
Rigor shook herself out of her stupor and gave Moonlight a light smack to the back of his head with her hoof. Figuring he only said that to mess with her again, "What kind of pranks do they do?" she asked the pegasus.
"You'll see for yourself when you get inside. The state of affairs is absolutely deplorable."
The Pegasus entered an a room and grabbed a paper and a board.
"Alright then, may I have your names, please?"
Moonlight Gamer and the violent one on my back is Rigor Mortis
"Good good... *busy writing* Okay, here we go. You each get a little pin with your name on it. Make sure you don't lose it."
The mare hands a pin to each of the ponies.
"My name is Tidal Chariot," the urge to expound was visibly too great, "I'm eventually going to be the next captain of Princess Celestia's Royal Guard, once she realizes my capabilities. For now, I'll be escorting you around the factory during your visit. So, shall we?"
"I'm only violent towards you," she commented before giving a nod to Tidal and putting the pin carefully in her mane. "Yes, I'm excited to see Rainbows being made as well as Thunder clouds," she grinned happily.
..and thats how I know you love me he said grinning and handing his pin to Rigor.
Rigor carefully put Moonlight's pin in his hair as if it was a bow, giving a smirk as she flicked her tail against his flank. "Uh huh.. keep telling yourself that," she said to him before giving Tidal her complete attention, "How do you make rainbows actually?"
Moonlight grabbed her tail with his and waited for Tidal to answer.
"Well, I don't actually work here, so the science behind it is a bit unclear. From what they tell me, the light from the sun possesses an array of colors that can be extracted by these machines here and then added to these pool looking things here... and... yeah."
Her efforts to sound scientific.
Moonlight snickered from her attempt to explain how rainbows were made.
"I see," she smiled at that, "I remember being a filly and some pegasus telling me a horror story about the Rainbow Factory. The sun makes much more sense." She rolled her eyes at Moonlight's tail grabbing hers, but she couldn't struggle much with being on his back since he was her only stable "ground".
The three entered the main corridor to the Rainbow Factory. The state of affairs Tidal Chariot mentioned earlier were everywhere. Rainbow colored graffiti everywhere. There were pictures, words, and all sorts of random splatters. None of it really even made any sense. Tidal took a second to marvel at it once more.
"Look at it. Horrible. It'll take at least an entire day for them to clean this mess up... once they actually start cleaning it up. The employee workforce is pretty thin as it is dealing with their daily responsibilities."
Wow. This is terrible. Moonlight looked all around then tugged on Rigor's tail unknowingly.
"It looks kinda pretty to be honest," she commented at the random splatters. She reached her hoof out trying to touch some of the rainbow mess.
Tidal Chariot reached a hoof out in front of Rigor Mortis.
"I--- wouldn't do that if I were you. Sometime during the week, we're expecting an investigation team to be analyzing this, hopefully find out who is responsible. I don't think you want your hoofmarks on the evidence."
Moonlight laughed. The last thing you want are pegasi police on you
She pulled her hoof back, "Oh I see. Sorry about that." She laughed, "Wouldn't they question how an Earth pony did all of this?"
They will suspect a pegasi accomplice
"You?" she smirked and looked at Tidal, "Okay I wont touch, don't worry."
Tidal snickered.
"I suspect it's somepony from the Flight Academy. There are all sorts of youngsters there who love to show off and be as irritating as possible. Of course, the big problem is which group of youths did it? If only I had some evidence. All I got right now is a colorful mess."
Moonlight didn't like the sound of that and bluntly whispers I honestly do think of you as my marefriend but if you touch anything for them to suspect us both i wont be held responsible for your sudden end to Rigor loud enough for her to hear while smiling a sinister smile since he would rather not be put in jail.
"Of course," Rigor said to Tidal, "Though in those types of groups there is usually a leader among them that urged them to do it."
She wasn't so worried about Moonlight's threatening, she had no intention on getting him in trouble. If he was in jail that would bore her after all, "Just make sure when you buck me off I have enough time to pose before the final moment."
"I'm not familiar with their ringleaders, since I don't attend that school..."
Tidal appeared distracted for a second.
"Well, I'm sure you want to see some of the other facilities here, right?"
Well the tour is for her not me so its up to you Rigor
"Yes, I would love to see how you make storms. Lighting and thunder always fascinated me!" she grinned excited.
(( Shower time see ya soon! :P ))
"Ohoho! That's rare to see an Earth Pony wanting to learn about the weather above them so much! Looks like you came to the right place! I wasn't normally very excited about things like weather... huh, I suppose I just enjoy explaining things I know about! Haha, the Storm Room would be this way, I believe."
Tidal seemed rather amused with her enjoyment of teaching.
That's my mare for you. She hangs out with the dead, befriends spiders and still has time to admire the pegasi ways he said laughing while following Tidal.
(( Back ))
"Well thunder and lightning are gorgeous to watch on a stormy night," she commented though she was glad that Tidal seemed amused with her questions. "I'm just thankful you are willing to teach me."
((Welcome back))
I'm sure any pegasi would enjoy teaching these things to earth ponies especially
"Huh, it doesn't scare you at all? Guess it wouldn't based on how your friend describes you."
The three came to the Storm Room. It was also covered in the same rainbow color graffiti designs.
"Well, excusing the mess, you can see all the good stuff. These here are the Thunder Domes... or is it the Lightning Domes...? Anyways, this is where they store the... Thunder or Lightning that's put into the clouds. Over there are the generators that create the electricity needed."
Rigor's eyes sparkled as she looked at the domes, staring at the bright light of lightning and the darkened clouds. "Wow, these are wonderful!" she said in awe, "How long do you wait to make them ready for a storm?"
Moonlight stood there smiling, happy that Rigor was enjoying herself and learning about the weather that she admired so much.
"Well, depends on the storm, I guess. If I had to put a time on it, I'd say these generators put out... uhhhhhh--- 5 minutes worth of a storm an hour. We always have them running, saving up for the stormy months of the year. I think these things can hold up to half a year's worth of Lightning, if I'm not mistaken."
Tidal peers at the two craftily.
"If we're ever short on Lightning, though, we have to produce the shortage manually. See those generators over there, in the far room? 100% pony powered there."
"Wow.. so it's good you store them early.." she commented. Though she was very interested in the generators that were pony powered. "How do you get those to work? Do you just run on them or does it take a special pony to do it?"
Moonlight was slightly starting to get bored so he decided to brush Rigor's cutie mark with his tail.
"Yeah, you got the idea of it, they are wheels you run inside of to spin it. It's one of the things they let the visitors do, it's quite popular with the fillies. It also helps them out with the extra free energy, in the event there's ever a shortage."
Tidal seemed to be containing her next question as she paused.
"... Want to give it a try?"
Rigor jumped and made a noise of surprise at Moonlight's tail brushing her flank. She gave him a look and looked back at Tidal, completely excited, "I would love to try! I wont.. you know.. fall though it will I?"
Moonlight chuckled at her reaction.
"No no no! These things are 100% foolproof. When you let fillies run on these, you HAVE to ensure that they are safe. You can, in no way, harm yourself while running on these. Feel free to run 'till your heart's content."
She ignored Moonlight's chuckle, "Get me close to it so I can jump on!" She was excited to at least stand on her four hooves again, even more to run and help produce some lightning and energy to fuel the storms she loved so much. "Deadly vu! When is the next storm again?"
Moonlight walks up to the wheel.
Rigor jumped off Moonlight's back and flicked his side with her short tail. Giving a grin as she stretched and trotted in place a bit to warm up. "Alright, I'm ready.." she got into a stance, ready to run as fast as her hooves can go.
"I haven't the slightest, I'm not in charge of the weather schedule. The Forecaster is pretty predictable in his weather pattern choices though."
Tidal helps all the ponies who want to get inside a wheel.
"Now these wheels resist your attempts to spin it, but that's natural. The resistance is required to create friction, which is what generates the electricity. So don't be surprised if you can't get the wheel to spin as fast as you'd like. Rest assured it is generating Lightning, though."
Rigor smirked, "No problem!" She started to dig her hooves into the wheel as she used her strength and struggled to get it to start moving from it's standing position. Though once she got it to move she found it a bit easier and started to gain speed, her grin growing wider as she tried to break out in a run.
The strength of an earth pony mare never ceases to amaze me and seeing the flank move that fast amazes me even more he said teasingly with a smirk and a slight laugh.
Tidal rolled her eyes slightly.
"If she runs any faster, she might have a future in Storm Power Generation."
If she had wings..
((Anypony free right now I'm sorry if I am interrupting ))
Rigor rolled her eyes, "Ignore him, he has an obsession." Though her ears did twitch at what Tidal said, "Faster? Hooves don't fail me now." She gave a snort as she focused on running as quickly as possible, urging her hooves to move quicker and focus on spinning the wheel faster and faster.
(( I don't suppose you can fly and join us? It's no problem. It's a very open rp. ))
((I would but I'm not sure how to >.< ))
((we are in the weather factory..let your oc be part of the tour group))
((I can force your character's relevance, but you will have to make the first move and introduce him))
Tidal's mouth made a grin slowly.
"Wow! I've never seen this wheel spin so fast! I guess it's true what they say about an Earth Pony's ground speed. Too bad we don't get too many Earth Pony visitors here in Cloudsdale."
((If I were it would be possessed and another pony would be with him if that's ok))
((thats fine))
Rigor threw her head back, flipping her black mane a bit all proud of herself and holding her tail up high. Keeping her speed up and trying to show off a little at how well she could get the wheel to spin. "It is a shame isn't it? Though that's probably because most Earth ponies are afraid of falling from this height."
Moonlight smirked at the pose Rigor was making knowing that he knew what it takes to wipe that proud pose clean.
A tour guide is showing a hooded Pegasus a few things in the Factory they come near the group
Tidal sneered quietly.
"It takes a lot of work and magic to bring an Earth Pony here, I hear. Now let's see how you're progressing."
She takes a glance at the meter next to the wheel Rigor was running on.
"... Mmmmmmmm--- Oh, not bad. This looks like 3 minutes of storm power so far!"
Moonlight scoffed at that. work and magic my flank he thought.
The hooded Pegasus looks towards the others her and her guide walk over to them
"Moonlight brought me here by just having me on his back," she said as she swished her tail. "Just three minutes already?" she asked, giving a smirk. "I bet I can make more than an hour worth!"
Somepony is getting full of themselves..
Tidal Chariot noticed another group, including a suspicious hooded pony, walking towards them. Of course, it was none of her business, so she tried to ignore it. Still, it was bugging her, so she kept her guard up.
"3 minutes of storm power isn't bad, considering you haven't even run for 10 minutes. Of course, you can't run FOREVER, right? You'd need sleep and food and the like, obviously. The quota system works around Storm Power per day. They don't expect volunteers to keep up with the machines, but you're sure giving those machines a run for their money."
"You just wish you were an Earth pony to make this wheel move as fast as I can," she grinned. "Well, no pony can run forever, though it is really nice to know that I'm making the machines work for it."
You can see the guard's expression is blank he also has blood red cat eyes the hooded Pegasus is listening to the group
And there that other group stood, motionless and without a sound. Even though Tidal wasn't paying attention to them, she had this nagging feeling that they were doing nothing but watching her. She took a better look at them from the corner of her eye.
They were just watching her. It made her a little upset, but a little afraid too, looking at their lack of expression. Still, she decided not to confront them yet.
"There there, that's enough running for you right now. You want to go check out something else?"
There was hesitation in her voice.
"We would like to join your group" the guide says the Pegasus says nothing
Rigor blinked and went to look at Tidal, seeing some other ponies behind her. Thinking they must want their turn as well, she started to slow down since stopping dead would only just hurt her. Once the wheel slowed down and started to stop as her chest heaved slightly, showing she was a bit tired from her work. "Sure, anyplace would be lovely."
Moonlight walked up to Rigor to help her off. Did you have your fun?
Tidal looked at the guide, whom she did not recognize. Then again, she did not know all the staff here. Even more puzzling was his request to join her group. She stood up the guide, standing tall than usual.
"I'd like to know who you are the visitor here is, first. Do you have name tag pins with you? They are required to participate in a tour, you know."
The guide show her his Pin (To lazy to make a name) the Pegasus show her pin "Irina Clockworker" it reads
Rigor got on top of Moonlight's back again, breathing a bit heavy from her running. "I had a lot of fun," she grinned, "Too bad it wasn't lower to the ground it would be fun to keep doing." She blinked at Tidal going up to the other guide and hooded pony, "Guess the tours are popular."
Moonlight's ear flicker from Rigor's breathing and he starts blushing but tries to hide it and fails. I'm glad you had fun.
Tidal didn't lose any of her suspicion when they identified themselves, so you could sense the distrust in her voice.
"Well then, we've already almost completed this tour, there's only one more room to see. I hope that won't be inconvenient for you."
"It is fine" the guide says in the same no emotion voice
"You just enjoyed watching my flank," she teased seeing the red under his white coat easily as she rested her chin on top of his head.
"What room is left?" she asked Tidal even though the mare seemed more interested in the new ponies.
That's different. My ears are sensitive. he said barely able to focus on what was going on behind him.
"Are they?" she asked curiously, "I always thought a pegasus' wings were sensitive."
Tidal did nothing more but squint slightly at the hooded pony, but she did have two others to look after. She tried her best not to sound concerned.
"Well, the last room... would be the Moisture Room. It's where they deal with all the condensation related to rain, snow, not to mention the creation of clouds themselves..."
She began walking.
Moonlight followed after Tidal. They are but im half zebra remember so I'm as sensitive as an earth pony, pegasus, and zebra put together.
Rigor flattened her ears as she smiled, "Right, that makes sense. Though wouldn't a zebra be just the same as a normal earth pony?"
"Snow?" she questioned and grinned, "Is the moisture room where they make the individual snow flakes?"
I-I dont know he said unable to think straight temporarily.
The two pegasi follow the others
"Sorta. They are generated randomly. You know how the saying that no two snowflakes are alike, right? There's a good reason we can't just make the same snowflake over and over again."
Rigor grinned, she liked that she was making him a bit nervous.
"What's the reason?" she questioned, "I always thought it was just because the pegasi were just artistic."
"Couldn't tell you. It's one of the best kept secrets here. Maybe you're right, we'll never know unless you get hired as a snowflake architect."
They entered the Moisture room. Not even this place could escape the graffiti, making it far more colorful than it normally is.
"Last we got the moisture room. You see those things on the ceiling? They collect the moisture that come from those weird pools on the ground produce. After that, we store them for future use, be it rain, snow, or hail. This room also insures that the moisture is clean, which is why these pools are here in the first place. We are manually evaporating the water in these pools, so please refrain from touching the water. Very hot."
Moonlight tried to shake off some of the nervousness he was feeling but to no avail. His face was still red and he still couldnt think straight to a degree.
Rigor looked around the Moisture room, "I see. Well, I suppose you are allowed to keep your secrets." She looked at the pools of hot water, "Have you had any problems with ponies not listening? Like some pony touching what they shouldn't be touching?"
Without realizing it Moonlight brushed his wings along Rigor's sides while he was tryna get his brain to function again.
Rigor squirmed slightly on Moonlight's back at the touch of his wings against her ticklish sides. "S-Stopp... hahaha.."
Stop what? he asked horribly oblivious to what his wings just did.
"Your wings tickled me," she muttered, "I could fall off laughing and that is a long way down to the ground."
Aww I'm sorry. I had no idea I did that. He wrapped his wings around Rigor to keep her secure and so he wont do something like that again...at least until she had something solid to land on.
She raised a brow but figures he didn't mean it so she relaxed. Smiling at his wings around her and keeping her stable from falling off. "Thank you."
Moonlight smiled. Your welcome.
(Sorry, last post for the evening, you can control Tidal Chariot, but please be as brief as possible if you wish to use her to move the story along.)
"Hmph, some of us have to learn from mistakes, don't we?"
Tidal rolled her eyes.
"At least, that's what I wanted to say. Company standards, I'm responsible for all the little fillies and adolescences I tour around... granted this is like... my second time doing this. But no. No touching. You touch, you might be the next horror story of the Rainbow Factory."
(( Nah, I don't like moving other people's characters. Good night to you though! ^-^ ))
"That is a good learning experience," she laughed, "No thanks, I don't want to be some little filly's ghost story for Nightmare Night."
((same here))
Moonlight thought about it. Rigor's right heh.
Rigor smiled and pressed her nose to the back of Moonlight's ear, "I'm always right."

"My forth wall, anyways, we can shot it from here.. Aim for Discord!" Says Light as they let down the cannon."
"Wait, what's our ammo?" Tiger asked as she let the cannon down. "We didn't forget them did we?"
"Pfft, this runs on my wubs."
"...Right." Tiger aims the cannon. "Target acquired! FIRE!"
Light begins to turn the disc as the best music comes out of the cannon.
"...Music? Really?"
"Wait till you see what it does..." Light revs the music up a little and an inferno shot comes from the cannon, still with the best music.
"Whoa," Tiger said, watching the cannonball head straight towards Discord.
((Would you like to take Discord's role?))
((Sure))
Discord shouts "Pfft, puny pony."
Light said "Oh, look this is the button that stopped you in Epic Wub Time."
Discord says. " :/ Buck..."
"What exactly is epic wub time?" Tiger asked.
In Light's mind (He must not know about the internet!)
Something I made up...
((Um, Tiger is a SHE! >:O))
"Something you made up. Hmph. Would've expected it to be from the internet or something," Tiger said.
((I'm in a private school, sheesh."))
"Bagh, anyways, I think the bass cannon worked." Let's check...
((Timeskip))
Twilight arrives as Light rants "Why now?! We had to carry this bass cannon!"
As Twilight goes and fixes a rebuttal it seems Discord has been stoned... ((Bahahaha))
(What's a rebuttal?)
"I told you it was pointless to bring it," Tiger said to Light.
Light turns around saying "Pffft, we can have a party here since I brought it."
"Um, what about Discord?" Tiger said as she turned his way.
Discord started wrecking havoc ovO
"Ugh, let me get a taser." Says Light as Twilight explains that "Light has some 'special' powers. I think he calls it 'Forth Wall' he can get anything from anywhere and communicate to 'humans'.. Weird, eh?"
"Oh, that. Like Pinkie Pie," Tiger said.
Light begins to chase Discord with the taser screaming "Come here you bloody dog!"
Twilight then begins to say "I'll invite other ponies here since Light stopped Discord this time. He should get some credit."

Rigor smiled and pressed her nose to the back of Moonlight's ear, "I'm always right."
Moonlight ear flickered again from he sudden contact. I-I-I..yes. was all he could manage since his mind was still as jammed as an overused copier.
She smirked, oh she could get used to this. Her tail swished side to side, amused that she seemed to found an agree "button" on Moonlight.
Moonlight's blush got a bit darker since he always had an opinion so him agreeing with someone, especially his marefriend was a real shock.
Rigor laughed a bit as she moved so she could look down at his face easier, "Well, that's a nice color on you."
Moonlights ears dropped out of embarrassment and wondered how long this was gonna last.
She smirked, "Aww.. don't act that way."
W-w-what way? His mind was scrambled and his embarrassment made it hard to speak even though he tried to shake it off.
"All sullen," she smirked, "You are acting as if you want to sink though the cloud floor."
Moonlight thought about that then did just that and lightened his body and sank thru the cloud floor and waited for Rigor to fall on top of him.
Rigor's eyes widened and gave a startled noise as she fell.
Moonlight didn't move as he waited for her and started to calm down.
Her hooves kicked wildly as she fell and once she landed on Moonlight again she growled at him angrily.
Moonlight laughed. "You're alive aren't you"
"You might not be for long," she muttered as she laid on his back.
"Well if you do kill me I hope it means we can be together more often." he smiled.
"Sure, I'll even stuff you. Hows that?" she smirked a bit amused as her beating heart started to slow down from the adrenaline rush of falling.
"Sounds nice. Do I still get to sleep in the same bed too?" he asked noticing her heartbeat reacting to the short freefall.
"Sure, you'll be like a plush toy.." Rigor took a breath and stared at him.
"Oh boy" he said happily then asked "Do you wanna try freefalling?"
She raised an eyebrow, "That doesn't sound like the safest thing in the world." Though she was starting to grin at the thought.
"Do you trust me enough for me to catch you?"
"That's a stupid question, of course I do. However, no pony is perfect and if I'm falling too fast you could hurt yourself or the speed could break your bones."
Moonlight looked at her as if saying 'have you met me'.
Rigor rolled her eyes and sigh, "Well, if you are so sure why are we wasting our time talking about it when I could have been falling though the sky a few moments ago?"
"Cause you're looking at me" he said looking at her face to face and pointing down at an empty sky.
She blinked and looked down, scrambling her legs in the empty air as she fell. After a few moments of panic though Rigor gave a smile, it wasn't that bad hurling towards the ground at who knows what speed. A laugh escaped her as she looked at Moonlight, she could get used to having this sort of adrenaline rush.
Moonlight waited a bit to get some distance between them then took off toward her. Once he caught up he maintained the same speed she was falling. "How is does it feel!?"
She started to trot in midair as she fell giving a laugh, "It's amazing. It's almost like floating, except for the impending ground part."
"That's where I come in" As soon as they got real close to the ground Moonlight pulled away and swept Rigor back up into the air and helped her back onto his back. "Glad you enjoyed it"
Rigor laughed loudly and wrapped her hooves around Moonlight's neck as she nuzzled him. Giggling with excitement, "That.. was fun! Let's do it again!"
Moonlight takes off to a higher altitude than the one before and hovers there. "Whenever you're ready just go for it"
Rigor stood up on Moonlight's back before jumping off doing a little spin as she laughed and fell though the sky.
Moonlight waited a bit longer than before since he wanted to try something and he needed to right amount of speed for it then saw his chance and immediately took off at a high speed.
She was enjoying herself and doing all sorts of fun tricks and poses in the air, she really liked the feeling of not having to worry about the ground or any sort of gravity.
Moonlight was divebombing at about mach 4 without realizing it and a mach cone had formed and gotten tighter around him as he closed in on Rigor.
Rigor looked at the ground realizing it was getting closer, she looked around the sides of her not seeing Moonlight and starting to get nervous. Last time he was already scooping her up.
Moonlight hit mach 5 and shoots off with a white and black sonic boom and light trailing behind him. He then catches up with Rigor and scoops her up inches before hitting the ground.
Rigor stared as the ground grew larger and was so close to her, she could hear her heart pounding in her ears as all she thought was how the impact actually killed a pony. Her eyes were wide and she held her breath, though she released it with a hysterical laughter as she was scooped up and away from the unforgiving earth. She gave Moonlight a look as she held onto him tightly, planing on hitting him after she got all four hooves on the ground safely.
Moonlight came to a slowed stop then let Rigor down while feeling stunned that he did his own variation of a rainboom but didn't know what to call it.
Rigor's hooves shook and she laid on the ground as she looked at Moonlight, her chest heaving and her heart pounding. "I.. you..." she took a breath and gave him a look, "When I can stand I'm going to buck you into next week.. you know that right?"
(( Has food now. *Noms* ))
(( O: me too))
Moonlight makes an 'X' under his chin and awaits his punishment.
(( lol Really? That's awesome! ))
Rigor took a minute to stand up as she gave him a glare, "Jerk.. You got lucky with that monochromatic.. thing.. you did." She slugged her hoof against Moonlight's shoulder but left it at that, as she shook to flatten her mane.
Thats the first time I've done that honestly He then thought about it. What would I call it?
"How about, gave a pony a heart attack because you almost killed her?" she said, "You owe me ice cream now." Though she thought about it, it was a strange color, "How about.. penguin blast?"
Uh..no but I will agree with you on the ice cream. he said laughing.
"What about moo moo blast?" she smirked as she nuzzled Moonlight. "Let's get me that ice cream!"
Moonlight starts walking to the ice cream shoppe. Uh..no he said bluntly this time worried that he may end up stuck with a weird name for his sonic boom.
She trotted happily, giving a giggle. "Don't worry, I'm sure you'll find a good name for it," she grinned her tail swishing as they neared the ice cream shoppe. "I still think it should be something relating to how monochromatic it is."
That's the hard part he sighed and stopped in front of the ice cream shoppe.
"How do you feel about piano keys?" she smirked and flicked her short tail against his flank. Her tongue sliding over her lower lip as she trotted inside of the shoppe.
He followed her in. That's not helping anything
"I suppose not," she smiled and looked at the various ice cream options behind the glass as her focus was on each one of those.
Hello. What flavor or flavors would you like?
"I want chocolate pomegranate!" she exclaimed and pressed her face to the glass, "With a cherry on top!"
Coming right up. The clerk scoops up some chocolate pomegranate ice cream and put it into cup then puts a cherry on top and hands it to Rigor.
Moonlight walks up the counter and pays for it.
"Aren't you going to get one?" she asked Moonlight, though her eyes were on the ice cream as she drooled a bit.
No. I'm not in an ice cream mood. he said as his ears flattened.
"What's wrong?" she asked looking at him a bit worried.
I need a name for what I just did but I'm not sure if it was just a fluke.
She grabbed her icecream and gave him a look, "Well, we could see if you can do it again?"
Honestly it wore me out when I did it the first time
"Then you shouldn't worry, you need to rest up," going to sit at a small table in the shoppe, "After all worrying about it will only take away your self confidence."
You have enough self confidence for the both of us he said snickering.
"Well somepony has to bring you up when you get down," she picked up the cherry by the stem and threw it in the air before catching it in her mouth with a "Mmmm....".
Moonlight walked up to her and nuzzled her. You know you're a showoff sometimes right
She stuck out her tongue and spit out a perfectly made knot in the stem, "Just on things that aren't any use to be honest." She grinned and nuzzled Moonlight back, "Besides, you know you love it."
I can't argue with that Moonlight eyed the cherry stem.
Rigor didn't care much about her little parlor trick as she dug into the ice cream. Enjoying every single bite and lick of it, not caring if she got messy or not.
(( Screwing around on the hub pony creator. The outfits are so much fun.. ))
Moonlight watched laughing.
((makes sense))
Grinning at Moonlight with her face covered in ice cream, "Mm.. I never can get enough of this.. ))
Moonlight licked the ice cream off her nose. You don't say
"It's pomegranate and chocolate," she grinned, "the best kind." Her cheeks reddened and she laughed softly at him licking the ice cream off her nose.
You're right especially the mare it's that covered in it he said licking his lips.
Rigor blushed brightly at that and gave a small laugh, "Oh.. am I covered in it?"
You could be but maybe that'll be for another time he said laughing.
Rigor laughed and cleaned her face up with her napkin, "You are just terrible."
As long as I'm yours then I don't see that as a bad thing he said with a grin then brushed her flank with his tail.
Rigor jumped and gave him a look as she flicked her tail at his in retaliation, "Yes, I suppose I claim responsibly for you. Now, why don't we get out of here and have some real fun?"
Depends on what your meaning of fun is he said walking towards the door.
"You are still tired for any sort of race," she muttered, "We could go back to my house and play some games if you want."
Are you sure?
"I'm not sure what else we can do," she muttered with a blush and looked strangely outwards. "Not in this time slot anyway."
(( Bonus points and a cupcake to anyone who knows the reference of her last sentence. :D ))
((lol a cupcake huh well looks like im not getting a cupcake))
Moonlight laughed. Aww so you do think about me that way
(( It was from a Beetlejuice cartoon when Lydia asked Beetlejuice if there was a saloon and he said "not in this time slot, babes". ))
Rigor blushed and trotted off with her head high as if she didn't know what he was talking about, "Silly colt."
((ah. i never would have guessed..really.))
Moonlight snickered then followed behind her.
"So, what is your idea of a good time?" she questioned Moonlight.
(( Aww really.. I miss that show. :c ))
Well lately its spending time with you he answered honestly.
She looked at him a bit shocked, her hooves stopping dead. Blushing as she kicked her hoof at the dirt below them, "I.. well.. the same.."
Moonlight smiled. That's good to hear he said walking past her with his tail brushing her chin.
Rigor blushed and closed one of her eyes as his tail brushed under her chin, "You just like making my face turn red."
Well there's that and the fact that red is definitely your color he said chuckling.
She flattened her ears and gave a nervous chuckle, "Really?"
Of course he said with an honest smile.
She walked to him and nuzzled Moonlight's neck, "You are a sweetheart.."
That's cause i finally found somepony to be sweet to he said nuzzling her back.
"Careful," she warned teasing, "One would think you are going soft."
Well then just consider me your marshmellow he said jokingly.
She playfully licked at his cheek as if he was a giant marshmallow, "Oh yum! I'll need to find the biggest cup of cocoa!"
Moonlight blushed then started walking to Rigor's home again with his tail between his legs. Let's go find that cocoa.
"Wouldn't we need to go to Sugarcube corner for that?" she asked him, amused she could get the usually cocky stallion to act like such a shy colt.
I'd rather be licked in private he said laughing
Rigor busted up laughing, "I'm sure, but I don't think I have that much cocoa."
Well there is only one marshmellow so I think we can improvise
((Can I join))
((Sure. we are on our way to the funeral home))
"You are just going to stick your hoof in my cup?"
(( Sure! Hop on in! ))
((do you mind if I start something if you aren't in the middle of anything))
..or you could just pour it on me..but um..whatever you wanna do..is fine.
((Sure go ahead))
"Mares and Gentlecolts fillies and colts step right up Behind this curtain lies a ghastly concoction" a pony says from outside a circus tent
"Wouldn't it burn your a.." she didn't get to finish as her ears twitched and she looked over where the voice was coming from. "What is that?"
Wanna go check it out?
"Of delight, horror, fantasy and terror you ever wish is our command your, every whimsical disorder brought to life WELCOME TO THE GREASTEST SHOW ON EQUESTRIA"
Rigor's eyes sparkled at the word "horror", "Celestia yes I do!" She already was galloping towards the tent to look at the pony who was calling out for a crowd.
Moonlight's ears dropped at the word horror and he hesitated to go but did anyway since Rigor was.
The pony looks down at the two "So you would like to enter?"
Rigor raised her hoof, excited and looked at Moonlight, "This is going to be so much fun!" Speaking to the pony who looked down at them, "I would!"
Right..fun
"then please come with me" the pony walks towards the tent
Rigor pranced after the pony and kept looking over at Moonlight, "Don't worry, I'll protect you from the scary ponies in masks."
I've got a bad feeling about this he thought while following Rigor with his tail between his legs out of fear
when they enter the tent the pony leads them to their seats and the show starts music starts playing "The dark carnival is in town you better be ready a couple pairs of dancing skeletons full of goulish delight and many horrors don't they you parents your here by will soon be mourners. welcome to the lower birth the greatest show unearthed we appear without a sound the darkest show around. We will leave inatate. Madness murder dismay we will disappear at night with blood on the concrete."
Rigor grinned brightly making a 'squee' sound as she leaned forward in her seat, she was loving where this pony was going. "Can you believe it, Moonlight? It's a horror circus!"
The music ends "I would like to ask how are you all" the pony says looking in the stands
"Excited!" she called out in joy.
((Sorry it's getting kinda late here and I need rest night))

Light begins to chase Discord with the taser screaming "Come here you bloody dog!"
Twilight then begins to say "I'll invite other ponies here since Light stopped Discord this time. He should get some credit."
"I doubt he'd actually successfully stop him though. Just look at him! He's just charging at him like a mad cow," Tiger said, watching Light charge.
((If you want, I can take Discord's role.))
"Ugh, pesky colt!" Discord threw a piece of solid chocolate milk at Light, which exploded.
"Ppppfffftttt." Light said as he uses the taser like a gun.
((At school, just a quick update.))
"You're going to regret this." Discord used his Touch Of Discord to discordify Light.
((This is why I can break the fourth wall.))
"Screw it, I'll just kill you." ((Wat))
((That's kind of op if you can break the fourth wall any time you want. Pinkie's an exception because Pinkie ovO))
"You think you can kill the master of chaos? No. No no no. Discordify NOW!" Discord said as he continued poking Light on the head.
((One does not simply Discordify a random pony.))
"Yes! I have Pinkie Pie!"
Pinkie appears, "Hi Light!"

((One does not simply Discordify a random pony.))
((Really? You're kidding me. Discord does anything he wants.))
"Where did she even COME from!? Ugh, whatever, convenience." Discord discordified Pinkie Pie.
((Buuuuu))
"She... Well, in short words I'm screwed, am I Discord?"
"Why yes, yes you are," Discord said. "Let's see how the
magic of friendship will save you."
*Discord's theme music randomly starts playing*
"...What in the world?"
"Eh, Twi'll be here any second... Oh, nice music... which is pointed against you...."
"But I didn't play it. Besides, even if Twilight got here, her other friends wouldn't be here with her. And I have a new way of stopping them!" Discord declared.
"Well, If you must just get over it, I know she'll save me." Light proclaimed.

The music ends "I would like to ask how are you all" the pony says looking in the stands
Distraught he said worried with his ears still down and legs now shaking slightly.
Rigor looked over at Moonlight, feeling bad she dragged the poor scared colt in with her. "Moonlight?"
Moonlight looked at her hearing his name being called and flashed a false smile.
She moved closer to his seat and snuggled next to him, still a bit worried about her coltfriend.
Moonlight calmed down a bit but was still scared beyond all reason not knowing what this horror circus may hold.

Twilight and the Mane 6 showed up thanks to the help of Vanguard squared.I'm here with my friendsSorry it took so long I saw what happened and I had to get everyone together i went across ponyville to get everyone oh and apparently after this Rainbow dash wants something from Moonlight gamer some new game she has been ranting on aboutand i better get it too.Okay but I will ask him but right now we need to solve thisYAY LET'S DO THIS!!!(FIXED)
"It's like Nightmare Night," she comforted him as her short tail tried to hold his, "None of this is real. It's just for fun."
I don't go out on Nightmare Night..I'm in the store selling horror games all night.
((vanguard its Moonlight))
(( Maybe his character is bad with names? lol ))
"You.. don't go out?" she blinked at him confused, she couldn't imagine not going out on Nightmare Night.
((maybe or maybe))
Moonlight shook his head no. Since the buyers don't last all night I just camp out in the store until the next morning.
(( Sorry I was getting.. um physically ill... >.< I don't feel so good. ))
She sighed and ran her hoof over the top of his head, "I'm sorry I dragged you here.. Don't worry it'll be fun. You'll see."
((Aww its alright. I hope you feel better))
I doubt it
(( Applejuice is my friend right now. Beyond that.. just trying to stay awake.. :c ))
"I'm here," she grinned, "Besides, you are safe with me."
((I understand. you dont have to stay awake))
You're right he said as he smiled knowing she really would
(( I do.. I have to get up at 4:30 tomorrow for school no matter if I'm sick or not. So staying up means I will sleep tonight. ))
"Good," she smiled and planted a kiss on his nose.
((makes sense i guess))
Moonlight smiled feeling a bit reassured but still cowering a bit.
Rigor was glad he seemed better but she was still worried as she put her hoof over his with a reassuring smile.
((im just going to timeskip past the circus to help move it along))
After the circus ended Moonlight was very terrified and walked out the way he walked in.
Rigor followed after him with a grin on her face, bouncing on all four hooves excited. "That was fun!"
G-glad you e-enjoyed it he replied shakily.
"Aww.. I think I owe you some dinner for being such a good sport," she said as she pressed her nose against his cheek.
Yes..yes you do he answered as his normal voice comes back.
"Where would you like to go for dinner?" she smiled.
Anywhere is fine as long as I'm with you he smiled back.
She blushed and flicked her tail against his flank, "Alright, how about we go somewhere different."
What did you have in mind?
"We can go to that fancy.. well as fancy as ponyville gets, place that what's her name.. um.." she thought about it, "The white unicorn that has that boutique? She goes there a lot and she has to have good taste right? Running the boutique and all."
I guess that makes sense he said hesitantly.
"Of course I'm paying," she said proudly leading the way. "Sorry, I'm not good with remembering many ponies' names."
Well at least you remember mine..I hope. he gulped as he followed.
She put her hoof to her chin pretending to think, "Mmm.. was it Dusk shine? Or Moonbeam?" She smirked teasing him, "You know I would never forget your name Flashlight!" Laughing as she started trotting backwards to look at his face.
Moonlight frowned and his finally perked up ears dropped again and he continued to follow slowly.
"Moonlight?" she asked worried about him, "You know I'm just teasing right?"
Moonlight stuck his tongue out at her then jumped into the sky knowing what was coming next.
"Oh you jerk!" she yelled at him as he flew up, sticking her own tongue out since she was unable to reach him.
Moonlight swooped down and picked her up. Yeah I know he said laughing.
She rolled her eyes when she was picked up and gave him a smirk, "I bet you think you are pretty slick. You do realize I am in a perfect position to exact my revenge right?"
You're also in a perfect position for me to drop up upon said revenge
"I suppose there is that.." she muttered and gave him a lick on his cheek, "Anyway, to food!"
(( I'm going to try to take a nap.. head is pounding.. >A< ))
Right Moonlight flew off toward the restaurant.
((okay. i hope you feel better.)

"Well, I must sa-"
Discord discordifies Light
" :l "
(( Back... still don't feel good but.. whatever.. >.< ))
Rigor licked her lips in anticipation and tried to guess what sort of yummy food they had there.
((:())
Moonlight lands in front of the restaurant and puts Rigor down.
She stretched and looked at the fancy restaurant, staring at it. "Buck, well I feel under dressed.." she laughed looking at Moonlight.
Moonlight looked at her. We're always underdressed
"You enjoy it though," she commented and went to the door wondering if there was a dress code at all, hoping since it is ponyville they didn't have to dress up.
With a flank like that who wouldn't he muttered following behind her.
"Looks like we don't have to worry," she smiled brightly, "There are other ponies wearing nothing as well that are in here." Trotting up to the head host as she spoke, "Is a table for two open?"
Moonlight only followed and let her do the talking since he wasn't used to extra fancy places like this.
((If you don't mind, I will be hosting your restaurant visit))
"Table fo two, you say? Why of course, please come make yourselves at home. Please, let me show you ze way to your seats, madam and sir."
(( Don't mind at all Sorry just forcing myself to eat something. ))
Rigor turned to grin at Moonlight, a bit excited to try this place out. She followed the host and looked around taking in the decorations.
Moonlight followed after and hoping he doesn't seem out of place being the only mixed breed in the entire building.
-having smelt food spectrum would leap out from her underground home, having been sent there as a child she was never able to lean how to fly like her fellow pegasi, covered in water she would sniff around, entering the restaurant , she would look around, having never been to a place like this-
The young waiter took the two to their tables.
"First off, velcome to ze brand new Vonda Flaeva (Wonder Flavor) Restaurant of Ponyville! Ze one and only Chef Delish, culinary extraordinaire vill be cooking your order, so be prepared to redefine your sense of taste on his genius!"
He hands you menus.
Moonlight looks around noticing that some ponies are looking at him and talking about him. His ears drop and he covers his face with the menu.
Irina walks into the restaurant with her hood on she sits at a table
-Spektrum would spot the Pegasus stallion she had met earlier, nonchalantly trotting over toward him she would interrupt the waiter, staring down the basket full of bread set up atop your table- " Hay. . .Whats that?" -her tail beginning to sway-
The waiter was compelled to expound about the restaurant.
"As per Chef Delish's vision, he is in search of culinary inspiration, so he vanders ze land. Here is Ponyville, he is currently discovering new recipes inspired by "Friendship", which is his theme right now. Might I recommend the Friendship Salad?"
"Friendship salad? That sound pretty good actually," she smiled and looked at Moonlight. Though her eyes went to the strange pony that walked up to their table.
Ill try that. Moonlight looks at Spektrum. If you want some take it.
-without a thankyou, she would lift up her wrapped hair braid, having been able to control it , she would place the bushy tip on the bread basket, dusting it much like a paintbrush, she would then walk away, the bread having lost all its color-
Irina is muttering to herself I am a mastermind and that's no bucking lie
Rigor blinked at the bread losing it's color and watched the strange younger pony slip away, "I.. um.." She laughed a bit, it was wonderfully strange, "A friend of yours?"
-as the other fillys and gentlecolts looked at the exiting spektrum, they would see that where she had stepped, the color had been taken from the carpet within the shape of a hoofprint-
I met her in the street one day but she didn't respond..I didn't even know she could do that he said still covering his face.
"Vonderful choice, it is ze newest dish, designed by Chef Delish himself! Zey say he vas inspired to create zis from an expert in clothes design. It's a perfect start to a meal and a relationsheep!"
"And for ze madam?"
Rigor blinked and blushed, she must have spoken too softly or another pony was mistaking her for a colt again. "I'll have a friendship salad as well," she prodded the now colorless bread wondering if it was still edible. "It's a cute trick to be honest.."
-stopping outside suddenly she would stand there, a dumbfounded look upon her face as she began to stare down her reflection in a puddle from the rain earlier that day- "HOW CAN A LAKE BE SO SMALL?!" -her eye twitching, as she had never seen what happened above the ground when it stormed-
Moonlight saw Rigor blush and wondered why she did. I'm sure its still edible..the color is just gone is all.
-bounding back into the restaurant like a bat out of hell, she would begin to panic, making a scene as she yelled about- "THE WATER IS DISAPPEARING!!!!!" "THE LAKES HAVE SHRIVELED UP TO THE SIZE OF MY FAVORITE TIRE BUDDY BACK IN THE SEWER!" "DO SOMETHING!!!!!" D: DD: O:
Irina sees Spectrum oh shut up
Of course, the Waiter was watching the other pony performing these feats, although he decided to focus more on his job.
"Very good, your in fo a special treat, as ze chef himself vill be your server. He will dazzle you vit his interpretation of great taste!"
He took the menus and put down two cups of water and walked away quietly.
Moonlight looked over and walked up to her. They're just puddles..
-covered her head with her hooves, shivering as she whispered- "they're evil" >A<
sometimes I feel like I am the only one with any knowledge here Irina mutters
Moonlight looked down at Spektrum wih a concerned look. Um..
The Waiter may have been doing his job, but he couldn't let these incidents go unnoticed by the store owner. Pretty soon, Chef Delish came into the room, clearly upset.
"Nononon! What madness is this in my restaurant? I shall have none of it! If you are not here to eat, you are not here at all. Am I clear?"
-snapping back into her normal self she would loo back at irina, blinking one eye at a time before speaking- "Hi Grumpy Lady" -her hair tuft at the end of her tail accidently brushing cross the waiter, making a line of colorlessness along his face- "Whoopsie O.o"
Moonlight looked amazed at what just happened and is at a loss for words but doesnt back away.
Rigor blinked at it all and flicked at herself with her tail, wondering if she was dreaming this insanity. Finding she was quite awake she laughed a bit and muttered to Moonlight, "Well, if I new fancy places were this amusing I would have come here sooner."
Observing the situation, Chef Delish noticed the bread and the floor. At first, he wasn't exactly sure what happened to them. Regardless, it was clear he couldn't leave the floor as it was.
"My floor! Somepony better have a lot of bits to replace this!"
He began scrubbing at it furiously, to see if the markings would fade away by itself.
-looking at the waiter she would grin her sharp toothed grin- "Lemmie fix you" -sticking her tongue out, her tongue black and white striped, she would lick the waiters face, returning his color- "Dere .w."
Vanguard walks in the restaurant . " I don't need you licking the floor SPEKTRUM" Vanguard casts a spell to return the color to the floor. "I will let you tend to the colorless bread.
Moonlight just went sat back in his seat and wondered if he was dreaming right now.
Irina stands up and walks out all idiots
She watched what was going on, not liking the idea of the pony licking the bread. "Moonlight.. are you alright?"
Chef Delish looked at the restored floor, not particularly satisfied.
"Hmph. This will do for now, I have customers to attend to. If you are not one of them, I politely ask you to move your affairs to another location."
-waving her tail she would grin big- "ok bye grumpy lady I love you bye bye!" -nomming on the colorless bread she would then look at the ceiling and all its detail, to everypony else, they could tell she was a bit off her rocker- ovO
and a bunch of freaks too
Moonlight sat there unable to utter a word
Rigor put a hoof to her face and sighed, this trip wasn't ending up a good idea. "Well.. this is.. interesting.." she muttered.
Moonlight gave her a 'we shouldn't have come here' look and wondered what they were gonna do now.
-hearing that word, she would drop the bread, remembering her mothers words to her as she was shunned from cloudsdale, her accident haunting in her memories- freak. freakkkk. freeeeeak. FREAK. -her eyes closing slowly to her words as her tail drooped to the floor, the bushy tip of the braid hitting the floor as a ripple like wave rang throughout the room, the floor now colorless in a matter of mere seconds-
Chef Delish glared at the mare as she left. After she left, he shook his head in slight disbelief. He glanced over at the other customers in his store.
"Chef Delish apologizes for the inconvenience, but the matter has been dealt with. I beg for your forgiveness for not dealing with it sooner. You will be compensated, please relax."
Rigor smiled at Chef Delish, "It's alright, you can't help when some "special" ponies come in." She looked at Moonlight, her eyes pleading for forgiveness for making him sit though all of this.
"yea like that caped one who made fun of us." Vanguard interjected.
Moonlight only stared at as if saying 'you owe me big time'.
'Anything.. just stay here.. I really want to try the food' she begged with her eyes, giving him the biggest doe eyes she could manage.
Chef Delish decided his floor was better off colorless for now.
"Ah, what an understanding young mare. You have Chef Delish's deepest gratitude. Perhaps you would enjoy a live demonstration of your dish? It is only the least that can be done to ease your meal."
-snapping back once again into reality, she would sniff the air- "Hungryyyyy. ."
Vanguard pulls up a table next to Rigor and Moonlight " hey Spektrum sit here with me i have some extra bits i can spend from selling some of my extra cards."
Fine.. he said as his ears dropped.
Irina makes her back to the asylum she walks to her office and opens a closet and puts her cloak away hm I wonder she pulls out a pair of shades and a hoof glove she presses a button and starts swiping at the air with the gloved hoof Well might as well go out and test this baby out and see if it works as I wished she presses the button and walks back outside
[am i annoying you guys im sorry if i am D: its just how my oc is.]
((you aren't bugging me just my OC))
Irina walks back to the resturant she throws a pellet full of gas inside in starts spreading as soon as it hits the ground she puts of a gas mask thissss issss going to be fun
((wait what kind of gas?..KO, sleeping, etc))
((Do you know the Scarecrow))
((batman's scarecrow?))
((Yeeeeeeeah... :l ))
The smoke activates the building's water sprinkler system. It ruins Chef Delish's dish and he is forced to evacuate all the customers. He later sued Irina for criminal mischief, which he lost. He later snuck into the Canterlot Library and used a time travel spell to travel back to that time, where he was able to anticipate the pellets, using a tennis racket to smack them out of his store and into a trash can he had planted in that spot. It's like it never happened.
((feeeeaaar also Ironicly Irina has never been caught though she is know to a certain group that is aware of how evil she is and what she is truly up to))
(TIME TURNER Would be proud WIBBLY WOBBLY TIMEY WIMEY)
((Alos I think a new scene would be nice you know of that's ok with you guys >.< ))
((actually yes. yes it would be nice))
((I'll start if you don't mind))
Irina walks around Ponyville reading something
((Have fun with your new scene))

Dicordified Light says "Whiny pony."
((Okay, I assume Discord has discordified you.))
"Yes, nicely done fingers... Paws... Claws... THINGS! What do I even have, PawClaws!?" Discord exclaimed, seeing the differences of his "hands".
"Stop right there Discord!" Twilight said from behind.
Discord turned around and saw Twilight and her other friends. "Oh, the
elements of harmony. That's not going to work after my magic trick, you know."
"Oh yeah!? Try us!" Rarity said.

"Do I give a

((I don't know if that's a bad word or not... ovO))
"As you wish," Discord said. He snapped his "fingers", and then the elements of harmony were gone.
"Wha... What did ye do ta 'em!" Applejack shouted.
"I simply scattered them across the continent. If you want to restore Ponyville back and seal me back into my stone statue, you'll have to find them," Discord said. "Don't worry, I won't discordify you guys this time, I'm just bored. I'll be waiting~"
Discord spawned a glass of chocolate milk and then walked off drinking the straw.
((Would you like to take control of some of the mane 6?))
((Yes.))
Twilight assumes "Oh snap, girls, we HAVE to split up. We have to search each town."
Rainbow Dash agrees.
Discorded Light says "Let's see if you can find it whiny fillies" He says demotingly
Applejack slaps him then they leave
Discorded Light? K.O
"Fluttershy and I will check out Vanhoover. Pinkie... Well, she can go on her own can't she?" Rarity said.
"Hey! I'll get lonely! Pinkie complained.
"Well, you can always break the fourth wall to meet up with us," Fluttershy said.
"...Oh yeah! Okay, I'll be going Baltimare to check then. Seeya! Pinkie Pie broke the fourth wall and was gone.
Where will the rest of the mane 6 go?
((Try using the Map Of Equestria (http://forum.legendsofequestria.com/index.php?topic=3940.0) to see where you want them to go ovO))
Twilight said "Well, I'm going to Fillydelphia"
Rainbow Dash said "I'm where my home's at!" (Cloudsdale, duh)
Applejack says "To Appleloosa I go!"
Discorded Light says "Then just go, stop proclaiming it to the world"
D-d-d-d-double kick! Applejack wins round two.
Cautiously wanders through the town square
((please don't double post))
Irina walks around the town square
Vanguard in a daze because Twilight sparkle left for Fillydelphia without him leaving him to tend to the library with Spike. "it's a good thing that spike said he would tend to the library while i shop for Twi while she is gone" Vanguard said to himself and his newly attained gold pony cards.

Applejack found the element of honesty!
Applejack put it on, but doesn't feel the magical power she normally does.
((Ah' wonder wha'.))
Meanwhile, Twilight immediatly averts her search to Canterlot.
((You'll know why later))
As Fluttershy and Rarity walked about Vanhoover, Rarity spotted something sparkling on the roof of a house. "Fluttershy, look!"
"Oh!" Fluttershy flew up to it and brought it down. It was the Element of Generosity.
Rarity put it on, but also didn't feel the magical power she used to feel when putting it on.
"Hm, odd. Discord must have done something with the elements," Rarity said calmly.
"Let's continue searching."
-------
Twilight notices something floating up above.
Twilight says "There you are, get back here tiara thing."
At Cloudsdale....
"Come back here!" Says Rainbow Dash chasing the element of loyalty.
Twilight (uses her magic and) gets the Element of Magic. Putting it on, the same thing happened to the other ponies.
The Element of Loyalty crashes into a cloud wall, and the lightning bolt jewel falls out.

Moonlight decided to head to the funeral home to call on that favor that Rigor owed him for having to go thru such a random episode at dinner the other day. Moonlight laughed to himself thinking of the possibilities.
"Embalming Fluid ?" Vanguard said looking at the list as he notices the note on the list that says don't ask it's for a spell AND IT DOESN'T HAVE TO DO WITH DEATH "Alright, alright " Vanguard said as if Twilight was scolding him through the paper. " well guess i have to go to the funeral home."
Rigor hummed to herself watering her poisonous mushroom caps and thick bushes of thorns. Enjoying the nice sunshine as she let some coffins she just cleaned air out and enjoy the sunshine as well.
Moonlight saw Rigor water some mushrooms and thorns and thought two things..why is she watering poisonous mushrooms and thorns and that it was time for another prank. Moonlight landed on the roof near her and called her name in a strange voice.

Twilight (uses her magic and) gets the Element of Magic. Putting it on, the same thing happened to the other ponies.
The Element of Loyalty crashes into a cloud wall, and the lightning bolt jewel falls out.
"Gotcha' but.. where's the magic... o.O " Confounding RD.
Rigor blinked as her ears twitched, she turned and put the watering can down. Tilting her head a bit as she looked around to see where the strange voice was coming from.
Altering his voice he called out [glow=red,2,300]Rigor Mortis. Why did you bury me?[/glow]

"Gotcha' but.. where's the magic... o.O " Confounding RD.
RD notices the lightning bolt jewel on the floor.
She blinked at that and trotted to where the graveyard was, "Well.. you were dead."
[glow=red,2,300]NO! I was sleeping and you let them bury me alive. Now you will pay for my suffering with your life. HAHAHAHA![/glow]
Vanguard almost at the Funeral home sees Moonlight on the roof he thinks to himself ' I wonder what he's doing up there?' he continues toward the place knowing no matter what he needs embalming fluid for Twi's spell when she gets back from facing discord.

RD notices the lightning bolt jewel on the floor.
"Yay, I have it! Now I can get back to Ponyville." Said RD
"Well ah'd be tha' trains arravin' at Ponyville." Says Applejack
Twilight is already at Ponyville.
Rigor's spine got a chill at that and then she thought about it, "If you are dead.. then how can you do that? Your body wont be able to move..."
[glow=red,2,300]That's what you think![/glow] Moonlight snuck down quietly and tapped her back then quickly went back to the roof.
Rigor jumped and turned around, her eyes wide as she searched for what could have touched her.
[glow=red,2,300]Do you still dare to doubt my power now?[/glow]
She growled and kicked her hoof in the ground, "I think I'm going to buck you into next week.."
Vanguard asked Rigor as he approached her " What's wrong looks like something has got you worried obviously seeing Moonlight tap her. "Maybe I can help"
[glow=red,2,300]You dare to threaten ME![/glow] Moonlight sneaks down and drags his hoof against her then gains some height so he isn't seen.
She jumped again and gave a squeak at the sudden feeling of a hoof dragging against her. She looked at Vangaurd with pleading eyes, "Please.. this is really strange."
((What happened to Moonlight, EXPLAIN MY SUBJECTS))
Vanguard sees this and follows Moonlight with his eyes thinking ' wow he's pretty good' "What never have your special talent talk back to you?" making a refrence to his Psyqualia jokingly " don't worry i will help you follow where i am looking " trying to keep his eyes on Moonlight.(moonlight is pulling a prank on Rigor)
[glow=red,2,300]You can get all the help you want but you will suffer all the same. MWAHAHAHA![/glow] Moonlight lowered himself a then dragged his hoof on top of her head then retreated again.
Rigor was looking around and jolted at the strange dragging feeling on her head, looking up as she growled, "Come out of hiding!" Stomping her hooves as she tried to find where whatever was bugging her was hiding.
Vanguard sees moonlight do this " You know rigor things aren't always what they seem" looking around trying to find where Moonlight is hiding getting his magic ready to drag Moonlight out of his Hiding Place.
Moonlight lands behind Rigor. What's wrong? I saw you down here yelling at something and came to see what was going on.
Vanguard gives Moonlight that stare that says REALLY? thinking what would Twi do in this kind of Situation.
Rigor looked around and kept staring in the air, "Not now, Moonlight. I'm looking for something."
Vanguard wispers in Rigor's ear " I think the thing you are looking for is closer than you think"
Moonlight walked over to Vanguard then glares at him as if saying 'open your mouth and I'll shut it for you' while summoning his keyblade then turns to Rigor. What are you looking for?
Vanguard says " oh well i guess Moonlight is here to help you now I will be going into the home and wait for you so i can get Embalming fluid for one of Twi's Experiments or spells not sure what she needs it for but it apparently according to her note does not have to do with death ." Vanguard walks into the Funeral home.
"Closer than I think?" she blinked at Vangaurd and wondered what he meant by that. Looking at Moonlight and starting to put two and two together, since he arrived the strange voice and touching stopped. "Something that was talking to me," she said carefully to Moonlight.
She blinked and watched Vangaurd before following him, "Hold up. You'll just make a mess if you try to get it yourself."
Moonlight crawled up to a nearby window. [glow=red,2,300]Did you think I would disappear that easily!?[/glow]
" I am not doing it myself i don't even know what i am looking for i just have this list from Twi i am just sitting waiting for you" Vangaurd sits next to a table with books on it.
Rigor ran inside, giving a growl at the voice that seemed to be coming from inside her funeral home now. "Right.. okay so embalming fluid? What kind do you need? More conditioner in it? More formaldehyde? What are you planing on using it for?"
"From some of the notes twi wrote it seems it's probably more Formaldehyde :I "
[glow=red,2,300]Since you think your safe inside I'll just take away the one you love most[/glow]
No..what are you doing!?
[glow=red,2,300]You are going to die![/glow]
No..No..NOOO!
Moonlight then flies back on top of the roof and lays there.
"Okay, formaldehyde," she said as she went to get a bottle. Her eyes widened in panic as she ran outside before even finishing putting the bottle on the counter for Vangaurd, "Moonlight!" Looking around as she stood outside, "Moonlight! Where are you?!"
Vanguard's Psyqualia Activates " YES MY WONDERFUL CARDS YOU TOO KNOW WHAT'S HAPPENING But we must remain quiet he will soon know what he is getting himself into"his eyes swirling with a glowing light.
[glow=red,2,300]The one you call Moonlight is with me now and is suffering because of you.[/glow]
Let me go!
[glow=red,2,300]Be silent![/glow]
No no no..ahhh!
Hush my gold ponies he will hopefully finish this soon. vanguard looks down to the left side of his Satchel.
Rigor was panicking looking at Vangaurd's magic but she didn't feel like she had time to wait for magic to do anything. She needed to act and buck whatever is attacking Moonlight, "Let him go! I swear.. I will..."
Moonlight limped up behind Rigor then fell. Rigor..I-I got away. Why is this thing doing this?
She turned and wrapped her hooves around Moonlight's neck, "I don't know.. I honestly thought it was you earlier.."
Vanguard Still in his Psyqualia hypnosis daze puts the formaldehyde in the pouch opposite of his cards "I THINK WE SHOULD LEAVE THEM TO RUN THEIR CORSEVanguard quickly snaps out of his PsyqualiaActuallly I think I should stay in case things go too far."Vanguard remembering what he just completely said stands a little confused with himself.
Moonlight licked her ear and whispered [glow=red,2,300]you should trust your instinct more often[/glow]
Rigor was a bit confused at Vangaurd seemingly talking to himself.
Though her face turned red at Moonlight's lick and his whisper, giving him a growl, "You.." She turned and used both of her back hooves to aim a kick at his side.
Moonlight awaited the impact that was coming and smiled.
Rigor kicked him hard before storming to her funeral home, holding her head and tail high in the air.
Moonlight slid and rolled a good few feet from his starting spot and recoiled in pain.
Vanguard looks at Moonlight on the ground thinking Can't say he didn't deserve that.
She walked in her funeral home and slammed the door shut after her with one of her back hooves.
(( I'll end there. I need some sleep. Early class tomorrow. ovO ))
Moonlight stood up and instantly fell again from the pain.
((okie dokie lokie))
"Need me to help you Home?" Vanguard looks at Moonlight " I knew something like this would happen my cards told me the gold ponies are pretty talented for sensing danger Here let me help you at least get to somewhere to spend the night I think twi won't mind you using the cot in the guest room if you can't get to one of your clouds after that hit" ^-^
Don't touch me.. he stood up took two steps towards Rigor's front door and fell again then crawled the rest of the way.
"Okay I am going back to the library now get well soon" vanguard giggles a little knowing how hard Moonlight got hit and starts walking back to the Library ((Okay i am gonna go now too Good night))
Moonlight makes it to the door and sits upright next to it.
((and thats it for me as well))
((I wonder if Twi would like that.))
((well Moonlight is left with his Pride and Rigor is still there and our story is anything but over))
((Anypony want to RP))
(sure I have some spare time) Vanguard notices the pony from the restaurant that night " hey sorry about the crude remarks i made about you in the restaurant that night but you were kinda being rude to my friends" :c Vangaurd says to the cloaked pony.
(( Well.. disappointing class.. we didn't get to do our dissection... :l ))
Rigor sat against the door, livid at Moonlight for what he did. "Don't even think about it," she called though the door hearing him approach it. Though she was a bit worried about how hard she kicked him and if he was really hurt.
((i know that feels. never got to dissect any bigger than earthworm in high school))
Moonlight leans against the door and sits there then knocks on the door with one knock every ten seconds.
(( They forgot to put our hearts in the freezer.. they always forget our friday/saturday class.. >.< ))
Rigor snorted a she sat there stubbornly, "Unless you are like my "guests" you shouldn't be at my door." Though her ears twitched and lowered on her head after every knock before growling and opening the door, "What?!"
((thats a shame :l))
Moonlight sat there passed out holding his side with a frown on his face and tears running down his face.
Rigor felt guilty and nudged him softly before giving a sigh, "Fine.. I'll take you to the doctor..." She leaned down and pulled him up on her back as carefully as possible so she could carry him to the hospital.
Without a word or sounds uttered from him he just laid on Rigor's back motionless while feeling a bit guilty and knowing he put this on himself.
She walked slowly so she wouldn't bounce him too much, feeling like a domestic abuser as she neared the hospital. How many colts as she brought to the hospital already?
Moonlight still unconscious wondered what was going to happen to him cause he could feel himself being moved but he wasn't moving at all.
She spoke to the nurse who gave her a bit of a harsh look as her and the doctor took Moonlight off her back and to his own room. The nurse got another three nurses to block Rigor from going into his room until they could talk to him alone. She sighed and sat in the waiting room, feeling terrible. She didn't want to actually -hurt- him.
Moonlight laid in the hospital bed still not able to open his eyes but he was moving slightly which in the doctor's eyes was a good sign
She sat in the chair and looked at the others in the waiting room as they seemed to back away from her. Giving a sigh as she waited nervously.
Moonlight finally opened his eyes and looked around wondering where he was and called out for Rigor weakly but loud enough to be heard.
The doctors looked over him and turning to the nurse who asked Moonlight who hurt him and if he really wanted to see his possible abuser.
It was my fault and I deserved it he then lashed out at the nurses. Of course I want to see her. What kind of stupid question is that?
One of the nurses pushed a flyer about domestic abuse in Moonlight's hoof before going out to the waiting room. The other stared at him sadly, "You know.. you never deserve any sort of violence."
Rigor perked up when the nurse came for her, ignoring the glare she gave her. She didn't care she wanted to see Moonlight. Running in the room, "Moonlight.."
Moonlight instantly ripped up the flyer using his teeth an spat the excess paper out. You don't know what happened! Your not allowed to decide that! then he turned and saw Rigor running into the room.
Rigor walked up to the bed and looked at him, "Are you alright?" She ignored the looks the nurses and the doctor was giving her.
Moonlight summoned his keyblade. Stop looking at her like that! Then he turned to Rigor. Yeah I'll be fine.
The nurses backed off and most of them left, leaving the doctor and one nurse that worked on Moonlight's internal injuries. "Good," she said looking at him, "I didn't mean to kick you that hard."
I deserved it if you ask me. I saw you watering your dead and dangerous garden and just thought it would be a nice little prank but I guess I took it too far.
"You made me believe you were getting hurt and it was my fault. I couldn't save you from something, it was cruel and terrible. Any other pony would have bucked you harder!" she added angrily before pouting and hiding her face in the blanket, "You made me worry about you for no reason."
Of course there was a reason. At first it was just a prank but then I really thought about it and wanted to see how much you really cared. He said wincing from the slight pain in his side.
She glared at him and watched him wince, "Did you get your answer?"
Well since there was no kiss after that powerful kick..not entirely.
"You
Read the forum rules.ed me off, you didn't deserve a kiss. Honestly, you are lucky I even.." she muttered something and moved from his bed,"Anyway.. when do you think you will be out?"
My injury isn't serious but it does hurt so they will just bandage me up and I'll be out today and they say I can't fly until I'm healed. he said as his ears dropped.
Rigor listened, she was glad that it wasn't serious though it did seem to her she may have bruised one of his ribs. She threw her mane back and scoffed, "Well, that's good. All you need is just a play to stay with somepony."
..and I guess after that stunt your place isn't on that list is it?
She snorted, "What do you think? Why should I let some pony who decided it would be fun to make me think they were dying?"
Cause I'm a pitiful wreck without my marefriend to support me and considering the fact that she did this to me regardless she doesn't have much of a choice right now.
"You are pitiful," she muttered as her tail swished still obviously angry. "Though, I suppose I don't have much of a choice in the matter. You'll have to stay with me until you are better."
Moonlight brushed tail against her cheek. Thank you.
"You are very.. very lucky that I like you," she muttered though envisioning how easy it would be to hide his body.
The nurse bandages him up and helps him into a wheelchair then tells Rigor that he is not allowed to walk or fly for two weeks and that the bandages need to come off entirely after a week then back away from her.
Rigor nodded and tried to explain why she bucked him but the nurse already looked a bit frightened. She sighed and pushed the wheelchair with her head and moved him from the hospital. "Can't even walk..," she muttered.
Moonlight's ears dropped. You think I like not walking on my own. he sighed and wished he could go back and smack his past self.
"You think I like being the one who did this?" she snapped at him, blinking as she sighed and pushed him slowly back to her funeral home. "I'm sorry," she muttered, "I just don't like that I hurt you this bad."
Moonlight didn't utter a word only feeling more and more guilty that he pushed her to doing this to him.
She pushed the wheelchair into the funeral home and moved him towards the kitchen. Giving a sigh as she went to shut the door before getting him a glass of water, "Here, you probably need to drink plenty of fluids."
Moonlight felt too depressed to accept the water and sat there.
Rigor looked at him sadly, pressing her nose to his cheek, nuzzling him. "I am sorry, I didn't mean to."
This is all my fault and now we are both suffering. I wish I could fix this. Tears started to roll down his face letting his depression get the better of him.
"Moonlight," she sighed and rubbed her hoof at his cheeks pushing the tears away, "You were just playing around. Don't be upset."
Don't be upset?..look at where my playing around has gotten us. I may have possibly bruised ribs, I'm in a wheelchair, you got a stare down for possibly being an abuser in other pony's eyes..and you want me to not be upset.
"I'm not that mad at you anymore," granted that was a lie but she knew him being upset wasn't going to help things, "I have been looked at for worse, and though you are bruised and in a wheelchair you will be fine in a few weeks and back to flying the skies."
Moonlight looked at her and could tell she was slightly lying but didn't say anything.
"Please Moonlight?" she asked looking at him, "Don't be so upset with yourself, you didn't know I would react that way."
You were yelling, growling and looked ready to buck the thing that was speaking to you..which you did.
"Well I thought the thing speaking to me hurt my.. well.. my coltfriend.." she muttered.
Moonlight's ear flickered from hearing her finally say 'coltfriend'. Do-do you really mean that?
She was red and looked down shyly at it as if saying it made the room echo loudly, "Of course.. I wouldn't say it if I didn't mean it."
Vanguard walks into the Funeral home " I felt bad for abandoning you guys earlier so i brought some games from moonlights place and some adventure books from the library I don't think Twi will mind she is still dealing with discord with the others"
Moonlight sighed and wondered if ponies lived to ruin the moments he was having with his marefriend and answered his own question by looking at Vanguard.
Rigor jumped back, "I.. uh.. It's okay. I'm.." She muttered a bit some excuse before going outside, "You two have fun."
Moonlight facehoofed and tried to roll himself to an empty grave but the back door was closed.
Rigor sighed and sat outside getting some air and looking up at the sky. Feeling just terrible about it all, shaking her head. As she muttered to herself, "You can feel guilty later.. you have to take care of him."
Moonlight decided to give up trying bury himself and went to the living room instead.
"sorry Moonlight, i sense from my cards from the female residents of my Deck that you and Rigor were having a private moment i just came by to drop this stuff off I will be going now" Vanguard drops the stuff next to Moonlight and started to walk out and to the market remembering that he forgot something from Twilight's shopping list.(so out of it tonight)
Moonlight only scowled as he left the funeral home.
Rigor looked up as Vangaurd came out of her funeral home, standing up and looking at him curiously. "Did you enjoy your talk with Moonlight?" she asked.
(( Sorry. Was cooking some dinner. ))
"I was just dropping something off I think he needs you to cheer him up if you know what i mean." nudging Rigor with his hoof a little . " just make sure he is okay he has been having it rough lately."
"He brought it onto himself," she muttered a bit. Giving a sigh as she looked at the funeral home, "I figure I'm mostly going to sit him in front of the tv and let him play his games when I'm busy with work this week." "You have fun, where ever you are headed off too. I'm sure Moonlight will need company of friends while I'm taking care of my "guests"."
Moonlight wondered what he was going to do the whole two weeks he was 'disabled' and remembered Rigor had a console but what good was it if he already knows what to do he thought.
"Okay it just seems that he likes your attention whether it be Positive or negative. I may be back later i might not"(going for a while i may catch up with the story or just skip ahead later) Vanguard walks off to the market to pick up that last ITEM on Twilights list.
(( That's alright see ya later. ))
Rigor sighed as Vangaurd left, thinking about that. "Positive or negative huh?" she muttered to herself before going to check on Moonlight. She blinked seeing him in the living room than the kitchen she left him in, "Looks like you can move yourself."
Moonlight didn't respond and stared at the off tv.
Meanwhile... At Discorded Light.... :|
((Note, Discord's at Canterlot))
(( Mmm.. pasta was good. ))
Rigor walked up to him and tried to get his attention again, "Moonlight?"
Moonlight's ears flickered to show he was listening but he didn't turn around.
(( O: What kind of pasta?))
(( Five cheese ravioli! ))
Rigor looked at him and sighed, "Well, did you and Vangaurd have a good talk about.. whatever it was?"
We didn't talk. he said sniffling.
((that sounds...delicious ovO))
She was confused, "Then.. did he give you something?"
(( It was. :D ))
Moonlight held up the game he brought then tossed it onto the couch.
(( Home.. Ugg that drive. Anyway! Should be here late tonight. I napped in the car. ovO ))
She watched him toss it on the couch, "I see... Are you not going to talk to me? I thought leaving you alone with your friend was a good thing."
((lol))
Moonlight sighed not knowing the answer to that and whimpers.
She gave him a look and mumbled to herself, "Every time we are alone.."
Moonlight rolls over to her and looks her in the eye.
"What?" she asked with her ears flattened.
He doesn't say a word but instead makes a gesture for a hug with his ears flattened and a sad look on his face.
She moved and raised her front hooves to wrap around his neck as she leaned over his wheelchair.
Moonlight held her and licked her ear not to tease but as if saying thank you.
Rigor gave a squeak at the lick to her ear as they flicked slightly.
Moonlight smiles and does it again.
She blushed brightly and made another small noise before moving a bit from his licking. "Heh, so you forgive me then?"
Of course he said in a soft voice with a smile.
At Canterlot...
Twilight hits the tiara against the wall to work. lol
Rigor pressed a kiss to Moonlight's cheek, "Good."
Moonlight knew he was going to have to take the initiative and touched noses with Rigor.
She blinked her eyes wide as she looked around for a moment making sure they were alone until she nuzzled her nose against his with closed eyes.
Moonlight then surprised himself as he sub-consciously kissed Rigor on the lips.
She blinked and then pushed in, her tail swishing side to side as they kissed.
Moonlight pulled away and smiled.
Rigor giggled softly as she flattened her ears and looked away.
Moonlight wished he could have embraced her properly but this bucking wheelchair was denying him of that.
She looked at him and bit her lower lip before muttering softly, "Do.. you want to sit on the couch.. or bed where it's more.. comfortable?"
The bed is fine as long as it's shared. he said with a smile.
"Well.. you wont make it up the stairs in that. So.." she moved carefully and lifted Moonlight onto her back so she could carry him upstairs.
Moonlight held on and thanked Celestia he was out of that chair.
As the other Elements of Harmony arrived they saw Twilight hitting the tiara against a wall and Discorded Light sleeping
Rigor walked up the stairs to her bedroom slowly, pushing the door open with her head. She carefully placed him on her bed, glad that she cleaned the blankets and sheets earlier that day. "There," she stretched a bit, "you are lucky I am used to moving stallions bigger than you."
I didn't need to know that but okay. He shuddered to think that there were stallions bigger than him especially after seeing Roid Rage once around town.
She blinked and then flared in anger thinking he meant something else by that, "I have you know those in Appleloosa die as well and they get sent here."
I didn't know that.. he said with a sad look as his ears flattened again.
Rigor glared at him and breathed heavily before calming down and giving a sigh as her ears flattened, "Moonlight.. I just.. I didn't like your assumption of me."
What did you possibly think I meant by that? He asked wondering what went through her mind when he said that.
"Like I carry stallions to my room all the time," she said giving him a look.
Moonlight started laughing. Are-are you serious?..did you really think I took you for that kind of mare?
"Why did you think I got upset and nearly bucked you again?" she asked him, though she blushed feeling embarrassed about thinking along those lines when he wasn't.
Cause you love to abuse me to get me in your bed? he said laughing again.
Rigor blinked at that and laughed, "Cute, though I don't think I would have to do any of those things to get you in my bed. I found you in there when I woke up one morning."
..and your lucky all I did was lay next to you. he said grinning.
((I see what you did there))
"I'm really grumpy when I'm woken up too early," she responded sticking out her tongue.
Hehe..Note to self, wake up Rigor early and see if she abuses me again and if so profit from it. he said smiling.
"I'm starting to think you have a thing for pain," she said as she jumped on her side of the bed.
As long as it's caused by you.
"Mm.. now is that a heartfelt comment, or a teasing joke?" she asked as she rested her front hooves over Moonlight's leg.
It is one-hundred percent heartfelt
"My marshmallow.." she muttered as she kissed his cheek.
Moonlight grinned from the kiss and laid there wondering if he would get any sleep which he highly doubted for obvious reasons.
Rigor smiled and laid her head on her hooves and moved so she was leaning against him.
Moonlight smiled from the contact and closed his eyes.
(( Mornin... well afternoon.. whatever. lol ))
She was comfortable and soon feel asleep, enjoying his body heat and being so relaxed.
*luna walked down to ponyvile* the air is nice down here... not as stuffy *she says mummering to her self*
((lol well good [insert time frame] to you too))
Moonlight rubbed her head and smiled knowing that he couldn't sleep.
(( Want to do a time skip cus all she is going to do is sleep like the dead. ))
Rigor sighed in her sleep and nuzzled closer.
((yeah lets do that))
Moonlight woke up after passing out without knowing and saw that Rigor was still sleeping soundly and decided to stay in bed and hold her.
Rigor stirred a bit, opening her eyes as she was greeted with white hair. She closed them again and nuzzled in before she realized what the white hair could be. Her eyes snapped open and she stared as she moved her head back a bit.
Well good morning to you too he said with a slight laugh.
She rubbed her face with her hoof, "You really need to not surprise me so early in the morning..."
It's the best way to know I'm still here.
(( EDIT: Hahaha... realized I typed that here instead of my aim. Sorry.. XD She got her nails done, hair colored and cut. Which looks absolutely amazing.. she gave her nails pretty eyes so they look like ghosts. ))
"Yes, but one of these times you are going to end up putting me in one of the coffins I have here," she muttered looking at him.
((it was quick then I had to take a shower afterwards))
I'd jump in with you. he said sincerely.
(( .... Holy buck.. XD Random.. you got a.. *sings it's a small world after all* Well hopefully your cut and shower was awesome then. X3 ))
"So I should set up a double one?" she asked amused and pressed her nose to his cheek.
((lol it is a small world isnt it and that sounds awesome since i just read the edit))
As long as its comfortable he said smiling.
(( lol Oh life is just amazing that way. ))
"Oh it is. If you laid in it you would want it to be your bed instead of just using it to bury in the ground," she said with a smirk.
Maybe we should be in some awkward position when we get put in. he said laughing.
"What kind?" she thought with a mischievousness look, "Something that will scar little foals for life?"
Possibly. At least that way the pastor can say 'they died happily'. Plain and simple. he said grinning.
Rigor laughed at that, "That will be a funeral to remember."
Moonlight laughed as well. Yes. yes it would.
"So..." she teased as she flicked her short tail against Moonlight's cutie mark, "does that mean we will have to wait until we die?"
Moonlight flinched a bit. Well not really but I do respect mares enough to wait til marriage.
She blinked at him as if he was from another planet, "I... wow.. I don't think I have ever heard that from any colt.. ever..."
Moonlight smiled at that. Well i am special. he said pointing to his stripes and wings.
"I can see that," she said, "That's a good thing though."
Really? Do tell. he said flickering his ears and listening intently.
"Well, I don't have to worry about you getting bored," she commented looking at him.
Oh really..and why is that? he asked hoping to get answer.
"Because you are willing to wait," she grinned looking at him as she rolled on her back so she could stretch her hooves.
Moonlight saw an opportunity to tickle her and took it after rubbing her stomach.
Rigor kicked her hooves in the air as she squealed in laughter, squirming and trying to roll away from him. "N...no!"
I spared you last time but this time you're mine. he said laughing and keeping her close.
"N-No! S-Stop!" she laughed as she squirmed under him, still trying to roll and squirm away.
Escape is futile. He started to lighten up and let her squirm away.
Rigor managed to squirm away and fall off the bed doing so, breathing heavily as she laid on the floor trying to calm her giggles.
Moonlight looked over the bed edge. You okay down there?
"Yes.. away from your tickling and you can't get down here," she said looking up at him with a smirk.
Moonlight rolled off the bed and onto her, pinning Rigor down. You were saying?
She raised an brow and tilted her head, "I thought you were too hurt?"
I'm never too hurt to deal with a mare who thinks she can escape me. he said raising an eyebrow with a smirk on his face.
"I see.. and since you are hurt I can't shove you off," she said looking up at him, "This really isn't fair you know."
Yeah I know. he said smiling and sitting on her hind legs but causing no pressure.
She sighed laying there, looking up at the ceiling. Wiggling her front hooves as if she was going to get up.
Moonlight rubbed her stomach then looked at her. What if there were a foal in there? he asked pointing to her stomach then slid off of her.
"A f-" she busted up laughing harder than when he tickled her, "No way in Tartarus is there a foal inside of me."
Moonlight covered her mouth. That's not what I meant. What if it was our foal in there? he asked with a serious and curious look on his face then moved his hoof.
She made a noise as he covered up her mouth, blinking as he spoke. She looked at her stomach and thought about it, "Well.. that would be a -long- way off from now before that even would be discussed about." Rigor made a face at the idea but she took the thought seriously, "If it was I would suppose ideally I would have to change diet, sleeping schedule, and other aspects to insure a proper pregnancy." She spoke as if she was reading from a book about the subject.
Okay. Well anyway whats for breakfast? he asked to quickly change the subject thinking that it may lead to a lecture.
"Mm.. I suppose I could make some muffins or some eggs," she offered. "You would have to get off my legs first."
Moonlight stood up and got back in bed. Don't burn the house down. he said teasingly.
"Don't worry, I prefer not having my house become charcoal," she laughed as she stood up, stretched a bit before walking down the stairs so she could get breakfast ready.
As she walked away Moonlight watched her flank and shook his head to clear his mind then laid back down to rest.
She hummed a bit as she opened the fridge and drawers to get out what she needed. Staring over it all as she started to crack a few eggs. Tripping as one broke over her head and the yolk spilled over her face.
You okay down there? he called out after hearing something fall downstairs.
"Yes!" she called up as she struggled to make dough and it some how ended on the roof, she flattened her ears as she went to make more and in the middle of her stirring the dough on the roof gave way and fell on top of her. "Ugg..."
Do you need any help? he called out after hearing her having some trouble in the kitchen.
"N...No..." she was able to get some in the oven, and tried putting some eggs in the pan. Soon the kitchen was filled with black smoke as she coughed and took out the burn bits of muffins as she forgot the eggs trying to make sure there was no fire. Hitting the pan handle as it flew in the air and landed on her and she yelled at being burnt from the hot eggs and pan. Looking around her kitchen as it was splattered with dough, eggs, butter, and flour.
Moonlight heard Rigor yell and could smell smoke and immediately ran downstairs in pain form each step and saw the mess in the kitchen.
She sat among the mess and looked at him with tears in her eyes, caused from the smoke and first degree burns on her head, back, and front right hoof. "You should be upstairs," she muttered.
Moonlight ignored the pain and went to hug Rigor and wiped her tears away then flapped his wings to clear some of the smoke. Look at these burns.. he only looked at her concerned knowing that he should have come down sooner.
"They aren't that bad," she muttered as she sighed and looked at him. "Moonlight, you are hurt. You shouldn't be doing this."
I don't care..you're burnt and I'm not gonna leave you like this besides at this point breakfast is beyond salvageable he said looking around the kitchen.
"You should still be at least be in your wheelchair if you aren't laying down," she muttered looking him. "Come on, get on my back and I'll get you in your wheelchair. We can get breakfast out," she nudged him.
Moonlight's ears flattened at the thought of that accursed wheelchair and just accepted his fate and climbed on Rigor's back.
She winced slightly as he was on the burn on her back, slowly walking to the living room to help him into the wheelchair. "I know you don't like this, but the sooner you heal the sooner you'll get out of it. Walking without it will make you have to wait longer," she said to him, she would hate to think what it would be like to have to rely on somepony else.
Fine.. was all he could say as he kissed the burn on her back knowing he had to touch it to clumb up.
She smiled at him, the burns weren't that bad to be honest. "Let me put some cold water on these before we go," she said as she went back into the kitchen and pour icy water over her back, hoof, and head.
Moonlight sat in the wheelchair and sighed. At least when my wing was broken I could walk but this..this is torture he thought to himself.
She returned as water dripped down her face, she managed to clean herself up a bit as well. Though it was obvious some dough and egg was behind her ears and still in parts of her mane. "Ready?" she asked him.
(( Got to go do some shopping be back soon. ))
Yeah he said sounding a bit disappointed.
((okie dokie))
(( I'm back! ))
"I'm sorry.. you know I'm not very good at cooking," she muttered.
((Yay :D))
Moonlight looks at the kitchen. I've noticed.
She would have questioned why he seemed so upset but she let it go. Pushing her head against the wheelchair as she moved him to go outside of the funeral home.
Moonlight rolled out the front door slightly mad that today had to be a clear sunny day when inside Moonlight's mind it felt like a storm of emotions running through him.
Rigor shut her door before putting her front hooves on the handles of the wheelchair and walking with her back legs only. She didn't really like it, it felt awkward but it was the only way she could see as she pushed him. "So, where would you like to go for breakfast?"
Don't care. he said almost completely emotionless.
"Moonlight?" she questioned him, stopping as she went to all four hooves and walked around his chair.
Moonlight's eyes were cold and emotionless and he was looking down with a frown and his ears flattened.
"I'm sorry Moonlight.. is there anything I can do?" she asked him, she didn't like how upset he looked though she couldn't blame him.
Moonlight didn't say a word and shook his head no.
She sighed and went back to pushing him, deciding to head to Sugarcube corner in hopes that some cupcakes would cheer him up.
Moonlight just sat there and never said a word the entire trip.
Pushing him inside Sugarcube corner as she looked at the various cupcakes and muffins, giving Moonlight a look. "What would you like?"
Moonlight didn't answer and just kept his blank stare focused on the ground.
Rigor apologized to the cakes and got a dozen chocolate chip pumpkin muffins as well as a dozen of various cupcakes. Putting them on Moonlight as she pushed him out of Sugarcube corner before rounding on him, "Are you just going to stay quiet this whole time?"
Moonlight's silence was basically an automatic yes to her question.
She growled and pushed him to his game store, "Fine, ignore me."
Moonlight sighed after hearing her say those words.
Pushing him in his store as she picked up her box of muffins from him and walked to the back room. Leaving him to his store as she went to enjoy her breakfast alone in the back room.
Moonlight sucked in some air and tears started running down his face knowing that he was literally being ignored by the only other pony he could count at this point.
Rigor looked around the room, she wrinkled her nose as she looked at a box above her head. Giving a sigh at it, obviously it was meant to be brought down with somepony with wings. She went to go back into the store to ask Moonlight if she wanted him to shove a cupcake down his mouth and if he doesn't say anything she will though all she got out was, "Hey, do you..." She blinked and stared at Moonlight sitting in the chair with tears down his cheeks.
Moonlight covered his face and started sobbing.
"M.. Moonlight.. please.." she walked up to him and laid her head over his legs as she tried to wipe some tears from his cheeks with her hoof, "I'm so sorry.. I was just mad.."
Moonlight just kept sobbing wanting to be out of that chair and not to be abandoned by the only pony he cares about most because he feels empty inside.
"Come on.." she sighed as she pushed his chair to the back room, being careful as she manged to get Moonlight from the chair on her back and laying him in the back room to relax on the cot he mentioned before when they were trapped in his store during a stormy night.
Moonlight finally calmed down after getting out of the chair.
Rigor nuzzled at Moonlight's cheek, "I'm sorry.."
It's alright he said finally being able to speak.
She picked out a cupcake and pushed it towards him, "Eat?"
Moonlight may have felt better but he still swatted the cupcake away.
She sighed and went to put the cupcake back in it's box. Getting the muffin she picked out earlier for herself as she started to eat her own breakfast.
Moonlight sat up and started flapping his wings as if he were about to force himself to hover over the immediate area.
She looked at him with a stern look, "Moonlight! You are going to hurt yourself worse. I understand forcing yourself walking but not flying."
Moonlight stopped what he was about to do and had a sad look on his face.
Rigor pressed a soft kiss to his forehead. Feeling bad about his position.
Moonlight sighed and wished he could at least fly with these stupid bandages on.
"I'm sure.. we could try to break the doctor's rules," she offered, "Letting you walk until it's too hard and let you rest."
Upon hearing that Moonlight jumped up and galloped up front and out the front door the collapsed instantly upon making it out
She sighed and followed after him, seeing him collapsed just outside the store. "I meant walking, like slow walking. We don't want you overexerting yourself." Rigor looked down at him before sitting beside him, "Let me know when you want me to help you."
Moonlight crawled a few inches away not being able to stand up and not wanting to go back to that bucking chair.
"You are just hurting yourself," she muttered moving him so he could be on her back as she trotted back inside the store, "If you walked instead of ran you could have gotten farther. Now you will rest on this cot for a while until you can move again."
Moonlight tried to crawl away again disliking being in one spot.
"Would you just relax?" she asked him and watched him, "You know not eating could be making you weaker as well."
Upon hearing that Moonlight decided to try and hover again.
She sat there and watched him with her hoof against her face, she couldn't get him to stop so all she could do was watch him and take care of him if he hurt himself worse.
Instead of being able to hover his flank was raised in the air and he propelled himself forward.
She raised a brow watching him, following as she walked beside him. Finding the way he was moving very interesting, "I need a camera for this."
Moonlight propelled himself on the path back to the funeral home to get as far away from the restricting, soul sucking chair.
Rigor sighed and got the two boxes as she carried them on her back, shutting his store before easily catching up to him as he propelled himself slowly. "Well.. I have to say, I've never seen any pony do what you are doing."
Every pegasi can do this but don't he said as he continued to propel himself.
"I see, is it because it looks a bit foolish?" she asked amused.
Moonlight waved his flank and tail not caring how he looked at this point. Beats sitting in that wheelchair from Tartarus.
"It wasn't that bad," she said as they walked to the funeral home, "Besides you keep wiggling like that you are going to attract somepony's attention."
Yours I hope and if it is yours then be gentle he said teasingly and waved his tail and flank again.
"Gentle? Have you met me?" she teased giving him a wink.
Moonlight blushed then thought about it wondering how rough she could be outside of her playful attitude and shuddered.
She leaned over getting an idea for a prank and whipped her small tail at his flank as he shuddered.
Moonlight yelped as her tail came in contact with his body as he shuddered.
She laughed and continued walking, "Honestly, sometimes I can't tell if you only like me because I torment you."
Hehe maybe I like when you torment me and when your sweet. he said as he propelled himself into the closed front door.
Rigor pushed at the door with her hoof to let him in since he seemed to be having enough trouble moving around. "Oh, I see.. you like the bipolar tenancies?"
Yup..wait what? he stopped propelling himself after he made it into the living room.
She shook her head and laughed, "Oh nothing..."
Uh alright.. Moonlight turned himself around to see what she was doing.
Putting the muffins and cupcakes on the small table in the living room she gave a look at the mess in the kitchen. "I -should- clean that.."
Yeah..maybe you shouldn't try to make breakfast again.
"I thought the saying was if you fail to try, try again?" she asked as she kept looking at the kitchen, not really in the mood to clean all of it.
Well someponies just need to stop trying. he said hoping not to sound too harsh.
She stuck her tongue out at him and went into the kitchen to clean her mess before it became gross.
Moonlight watched her as she walked into the kitchen ignoring the gesture she gave him right before walking in. Nice flank. he called out while laughing and tried to propel himself to the stairs.
"Keep it up and you'll be in the hospital for a week!" she called to him as she got a bucket and a hoof-sponge.
Try it and I'll sue. he called out giggling afterwards.
"No pony will find your body!" she smirked as she scrubbed the walls and trying to clean off the ceiling.
As long as you come and visit that's fine by me. he said smiling and wondering how he is gonna get upstairs.
She shook her head as she left the kitchen having cleaned it though some of the mess seemed to be transferred onto her coat and mane. Giving him a look, "What in the hay are you doing?"
Hoping to climb these stairs and take a shower with you? he said smiling sheepishly then looking back at the stairs.
She blinked and sighed as she knelt down, "Alright, get on my back and I'll help you upstairs."
(( Going to school. Woo Two hour drive! ))
No!..no Moonlight climbed up the stairs as if he were climbing a mountain.
((Woo!..wait what))
(( College is two hours from my house. ))
Rigor sighed and sat down to watch him, realizing this is going to take a while.
Moonlight made it halfway up the stairs then stopped for a second.
((oh wow..two hours is kinda long))
(( Yuuupp... ))
Rigor walked up with him each step and sat there waiting.
Moonlight was two steps away from the top but he stopped again before climbing up them feeling triumphant.
Rigor clopped her hooves together applauding him. "Amazing, you made it up on your own."
Moonlight blushed and waved his tail around after climbing onto the top step then propelled himself to Rigor's room.
She trotted after him, her face blushing and trying not to look at his flank too much.
Moonlight climbs up onto the bed and gets comfortable.
Rigor smiled looking at him, "Comfortable?"
Nope cause you aren't up here keeping me warm. he said with a smile.
"I thought you wanted a bath," she said with a smirk. "Though if all you want is to cuddle on the bed.."
Cuddles first, then bath time cuddling. he said smiling.
"I see," she jumped on the bed and laid down next to Moonlight, "Alright."
Moonlight made a squee sound as he grinned and wrapped his hooves around Rigor.
Rigor smiled and flicked her tail a bit as she nuzzled into him.
Moonlight nuzzled her back and kissed her nose while grabbing her tail with his.
She giggled a bit as she pressed a kiss to his cheek.
Moonlight blushed and pulled her tail a little.
She gave him a look trying to flick her tail from his, "It's not going to get any longer if you pull at it."
Fine by me. I like em short. he said messing with her mane.
"Hey.." she muttered as he messed up her mane, "Do you realize how long it takes me to make it look presentable?"
Not very?..since it so short. he answered honestly.
"It frizzes up," she muttered and blushed.
Moonlight smiled. Aww. Well you don't have to worry about presentability around me since I'm not very picky about looks unlike other selfish snobby ponies he said snorting then calming down.
Rigor was actually touched by that but she didn't show it beyond a soft nuzzle, "That's good. I look like a colt most the time anyway."
You hit like one too. he muttered looking at his bandaged body.
Rigor smirked quite proud of that, "Well when a pony lives on her own she needs to be able to protect herself."
..but from little ol me? One of the harmless cross breeds here in ponyville.
"Mmm.. well you are harmless and small," she teased.
I'm big enough to deal with you and strong enough to protect myself. he said proudly.
"Oh? You can deal with me? What are you going to do? Take a rope and hogtie me?" she asked prodding at his proud chest.
Moonlight smirked at the idea but rather not act on it in his current condition. If you're feeling brave at the time then maybe. he said with a smile.
"I bet I could escape it," she retorted amused.
Moonlight felt that may have been a challenge. Okay then we will see. Get a rope and we will put that to the test.
"Maybe when you are feeling better. I don't want you hurting yourself," pressing her nose to Moonlight's cheek.
Me? Hurt myself? Ha!..Ow!
Rigor shook her head, "Silly."
Heh so how about that bath now? he asked holding his side from his proud shout out.
"I suppose I can go run one," she said as she got up and jumped off the bed to go to the bathroom to run a bath.
Moonlight slides off the bed and follows while propelling himself and watching her flank unable to avert his eyes..literally. ..and ponies say a view from a high altitude is better. he muttered.
She hummed a bit as she put her mouth around a bottle of bubble bath and poured it in before setting it down. She thought to herself, I wonder if he will mind smelling like strawberries?
Moonlight crawled the rest of the way into the bathroom and couldn't tell what she was putting in the tub but it smelled good he thought.
She turned to get Moonlight and looked at the floor seeing him there already, "Oh? Impatient already?"
In more way than one. he said winking then climbed up to the tub. What'd you use?
"Strawberry bubble bath," she said, "It's all I have. Believe it or not, I am a mare and do enjoy fruity bubble baths."
Fine by me. Oh and there are other ways to tell if you're a mare. he said lifting himself with his wings over the edge of the tub knowing he forgot about the bandages.
"Is there now?" she teased and sighed grabbing his tail with her mouth and pulling him towards her, "Wait a moment, let me get those bandages off." She worked quickly with her teeth and hooves to get all the bandages off his body and wings.
Once the bandages were off Moonlight slides into the tub head first.
Rigor put her front hooves on the edge of the tub and watched him, making sure he didn't drown himself.
Moonlight pops up and pulls Rigor in.
Rigor yelled but it was muffled as soon as her head went into the water, squirming and then popping out of the surface for air. Giving a glare at Moonlight as she shook her head.
Moonlight sat there with a grin on his face and kissed her cheek as a makeshift apology.
She rubbed her hoof over her mane, "Yeah..."
Moonlight laughed. You know you needed one too so you shouldn't have gotten mad.
Rigor sighed, "I suppose."
Moonlight snuck around behind her and started massaging her shoulders. Don't be like that. Just relax and enjoy the bath with your coltfriend.
She turned her head to look at him, "As long as it remains innocent." Though she was enjoying the massage so she didn't struggle or resist.
I get the feeling you may not trust me. This is how we got started ya know. he said continuing with the massage.
"Yes.. I know," she said closing her eyes, the warm water helped. "Besides, if I didn't trust you I wouldn't let you in my home."
You do have a valid point there. he admitted while pushing in a knot in her back he found.
Rigor gave a happy sound at his hooves pushing at the knot in her back.
Moonlight found a couple more of those and worked those out as well.
She gripped her hooves at the edge of the tub and purred happily.
Moonlight smiled then continued to untie any other nerves that may have gotten tangled lately.
"Mmmm..." she murmured content.
Enjoying yourself? he asked while continuing onto her lower back.
"Yes.." she muttered her skin red under her coat.
Moonlight felt a tight knot in one spot on her lower back. You may feel a bit more happy when this is gone. he said while wrapping his hoof around her then pushes it in with a lot of force.
Rigor blinked, "What sp-.." though as soon as he pushed at it she closed her eyes, feeling the pressure that soon released and she sighed heavily. That felt really good and her lower back wasn't so tense. "Wow.."
See I told you. he said smiling.
She couldn't speak really, just feeling so relaxed as she leaned against the edge of the tub.
Moonlight rubbed her back since he was finished with that last spot.
"Mmm... thank you, Moonlight..."
Anytime. he said while washing her back.
"I could so get used to this," she muttered flicking her tail in the water.
Good cause it won't be changing for a good long time.
"Brilliant.." she said looking over her shoulder at him.
Moonlight blew on her wet ear to see her reaction.
Rigor jumped and glared at him, "Hey!"
Moonlight chuckled. What did I do?
"You blew in my ear," she huffed.
When did I do this thing you speak of?
"Not more than five seconds ago," she muttered giving him a glare.
Moonlight kissed her hoping to avert her anger at something else.
Rigor blinked and flustered at his kiss and muttered something about him being a jerk but she smiled while muttering.
Moonlight smiled back and stopped. "Better?"
"Yeah, yeah..." she said closing her eyes, "Don't get too cocky about it."
Moonlight kissed her again with some force behind it.
Her eyes snapped open as he kissed her again, looking away as she blushed under her grey coat. They eventually closed as she smiled in the kiss, enjoying it a moment before putting her hoof to his chest and pushing him back. "Okay, you are forgiven," she smiled as she jumped out of the bath to get a towel.
Moonlight got out after her. Hooray for forgiveness. he proclaimed smiling.
She grabbed the towel with her teeth and wrapped it around her waist before getting another to rub with her hooves over her head and mane. "Yes.. well you sorta cheated."
Moonlight grabbed a towel and threw it around his waist. Me cheat..how?
"Your.." she shook her head and rubbed her coat dry before working on her tail. "Nothing.. anyway.. at least we are clean."
Moonlight leaned on her back. I'm what?
She rolled her eyes, "You cheated.. you kissed me to distract me."
How is that cheating?..I call that a fair play. he said as he attempted to walk but stopped cause he felt a bit of pain.
"I don't think it's fair," she said looking at him and moving so she could help him, "Are you alright?"
Yeah I'm alright. he said then leaned on her. Can you help me to the the living room please?
"Of course," she said moving at a pace he set, using her own body to help him walk.
As they get to the living room Moonlight picks up a game controller and sits on the couch. Thanks. He gives her a thank you kiss on the cheek.
She smiled and sat on the couch beside him to watch.
Moonlight starts up the game Fallout Equestria that he picked up when they were at his store.
Rigor tilted her head as the game started, "This game is obviously not for little fillies is it?"
Of course not. Watch this. Moonlight made his character walked up to an enemy and made it disintegrate after blowing it to pieces then laughed.
Rigor blinked and laughed at display of virtual violence, "Oh that looked fun. Hey can you pick up the head?"
Moonlight decapitates another enemy and picks up its head then throws it into the nearby river and laughed.
She giggled at that, "Oh.. you can!" Smiling as she watched Moonlight, she did like the ragdoll graphics, "Mm.. it's a bit.. that artery wouldn't behave that way if it was cut."
I honestly tried to make it as fake as possible while still keeping a bit of realism so I wouldn't get a lot of grief from other ponies. he said remembering that his marefriend deals with dead ponies on an almost daily basis.
"Oh I see, well that does make sense. Considering most ponies would want it as fake as possible, though since some ponies don't read medical books they may think that's how it's supposed to work anyway," she smiles, "I'm sure very few of your clientele is in medicine."
I'm sure they won't mind and even if they do it's not my problem once the sale is made. he said laughing and shooting at a mutant on screen.
"Nah, they will be too busy enjoying the game to really care. They will notice but that's it, after all can't make it too realistic in case a filly sees it."
Exactly. he holds the controller out towards her. Wanna play?
"Do you want to make a different save?" she asked. "Because the way I'll probably play this not many of the computer ponies will like you."
Go ahead. I don't mind playing it over again besides it has several empty save files anyway.
"Okay!" she beamed taking the controller as she smirked darkly. Moving the character around getting a feel for the controls before having the character go to the nearest house and slaughtering everyone.
Moonlight's eyes widened and ears dropped. Those were just innocent people you know.
She grinned giving him a look, "And I care? This is how I play." Her eyes turned back to the game as she looted everything she could get her hooves on and went to the next house.
Just wow. he kept watching as she continued her murder spree of innocent virtual people.
Rigor smiled getting all she can before she made the character go to the store to sell all she stole, humming happily to herself.
Moonlight just sat there wonder how the townspeople haven't killed her yet.
She blinked when some computer players came after her, "Ohhhh.. so you want to play?" She smirked and started killing them all, making her character move around so it wouldn't get hit but was hitting each character in turn lowering it's hp until she only had one left. "Heh.. easy beginning town, I'll need better weapons to kill faster."
To get better weapons you need to go out and explore the area and do missions to progress in the game and level up. There is also an alien's ray gun that I hid somewhere in the world. he said smiling and was a bit worried for the innocents.
"Alright, I'll leave this boring city. I think I took all the shop keeper's money anyway," she said killing the last of the attackers and looting the bodies before walking her character from the town.
Moonlight shook his head worried for the rest of the innocents that are meant to help at certain points of the game.
Rigor smiled as she pranced her character, randomly killing and looting on the way to the next town.
I honestly don't know either to laugh at the innocents being murdered or be worried for their safety.
"They aren't real, it's okay to laugh," she said grinning at him.
Moonlight saw that some ponies in power armor were approaching and he hoped that she wouldn't be foolish enough to attack them.
"Ooo what's that on them?" she asked looking at the ponies' clothes.
(( I must bounce! I have to get gas and what not silly things. Be back later. ))
((alright))
That's power armor and it can be looted. he said ignoring the fact that they can out gun her instantly.
"Mmm.." she paused the game and saved it before grinning, "Let's kill them!" She charged her well under powered character at them.
Moonlight facehoofed and thought 'Wow she really just charged them'.
Promptly getting her flank handed to her she sighed and reloaded her save, "Well that's what quick save is for."
Don't tell me your gonna try again..
"When I have more weapons, for now I'm going around them and going after others," she grinned.
You do that. Moonlight leaned against Rigor and rested his head on her shoulder.
Rigor ran the character to the next town so she could do a few quests she considered needed.
Moonlight closed his eyes and let Rigor play without backseat driving.
Once she got bored she slaughtered the quest givers after getting their quest complete and started destroying the town with joy.
Moonlight fell asleep and his hoof unconsciously brushed against her cutie mark.
Rigor jerked a little pausing the game to yell at him, realizing he was asleep she smiled and returned to the game. Using her hoof to lower the volume so she wouldn't disturb him.
Moonlight stirred a bit and ended up breathing gently on Rigor's neck.
Rigor froze still, barely able to pause her game as her cheeks, top of her nose, and ears turned a scarlet red under her grey coat.
In Moon's dream he was licking ice cream which made him lick Rigor's neck in his sleep.
Rigor jumped from the couch and looked at him with terrified eyes before running upstairs to hide in her bed with the blankets over her. Her body shaking as she held the blankets tight with her hooves.
The morning after Moonlight stirred and saw that he slept on the couch and started to tear up a bit thinking that he was left alone down there on purpose.
Rigor yawned in the kitchen, she gotten breakfast early and was getting it set up on plates. She couldn't sleep last night, her mane a mess as she twitched slightly at small noises from her lack of sleep.
Moonlight looked around and started sniffling and crying a bit into the couch.
She walked lazily into the living room and spoke, not seeing Moonlight's head up, "Hey.. you awake yet?"
Moonlight's ear flickered but he didn't move.
She walked to the couch looking at him, "Moonlight? Are you awake?"
Moonlight looked at her with tears in his eyes and an extremely sad look.
"Why are you so upset?" she asked looking at him and pressing her nose to his cheek.
Wh-why did you leave me down here alone all night?
"I... I.." she colored, "I just woke up early to make breakfast is all." She looked at him hoping he didn't wake up in the middle of the night. A sigh escaped her, "To be honest.. you did something.. strange in your sleep that freaked me out."
What did I do? he asked while wiping his tears.
"Y-you..." she flattened her ears and muttered softly, "Licked my neck.."
I what? he asked looking confused
(( Blehhhh work.. ))
"You.." she groaned a bit frustrated, "You licked my neck."
Oh. I'm sorry. I was dreaming about having ice cream with you when I got better and I guess I must've licked you by accident.
((It can't be that bad))
"Yeah well.. it was weird and I didn't want to hit you while you were sleeping.." she muttered.
((Nah it wasn't. Just kinda feel like rainbow dash today and want to just sleep. ))
It's not weird. You're just really sensitive is all. he said laughing.
((I know that feeling))
(( Plus.. wasn't home for five seconds and I had to go do things again. Hopefully I get more of a break this time. ))
"S.. Sensitive?! I.. I am not!" she denied slamming her hoof down in protest, "It was gross! Do you know how many germs are in a pony's mouth?"
You mean in addition to the ones that come from taking care of dead ponies and plants. he said smiling slyly.
"The plants are not dead, and I clean the ponies and make sure nothing spreads," she stated glaring at him.
Alright alright. Just stop looking at me like that. he said burying his face into the couch to avert his eyes from her gaze.
She flicked her tail in the air and walked back to the kitchen, satisfied she won. "I made breakfast since I couldn't sleep anyway."
Oh Celestia..
"By making, I bought it and put it on plates. I didn't feel like cleaning."
Oh..good then.
"Too tired to deal with the mess," she yawned and sat on a chair in the kitchen.
Why are you so tired?
"Didn't sleep," she yawned looking at her breakfast and nosing her apple pie.
Oh. Well maybe you should get some sleep then.
"Nah.. I'm fine," she smiled at him.
Are you sure?
"Yup.." she muttered starting to eat her pie.
Moonlight just kept watching Rigor.
Her eyes closed and she slowly started to nod off as she ate her pie.
Rigor! he called out to wake her up.
She jolted awake after her entire nose and mouth was covered in the pie she fell asleep in. "Huh? Wha?"
Two thing..clean your nose and you fell asleep.
She put her hoof to her nose and sighed, licking at her hoof and trying to clean herself up. "Oh.."
Moonlight climbed off the couch being able to walk a little but very slowly.
Rigor blinked and looked at him, "Would you prefer I bring the food to you?"
(( Trying to finish this assignment will be a bit slow. ))
No no I'll be fine. he said as he walked over slowly.
((no problem))
(( My death and dying class is killing me.. no pun intended.. ovO ))
She watched him as she went back to eating her apple pie that had an imprint of her face in it.
((and yet its still funny))
Moonlight finally made it to the table and sat down then took Rigor's pie.
"Hey! That's mine..." she pouted.
Moonlight looked at the imprint then took a bite. Wow. Who knew face pie could be so delicious. he said then looked over at Rigor and frowned feeling bad.
(( FINISHED! /VICTORY! :D ))
Rigor blinked and had to laugh at that, a smile on her face, "Maybe that's the way I should cook from now on?"
((Wooo!))
Moonlight was glad he got a smile out of her. I'd appreciate it. he said smiling.
"You are just afraid that I will catch you on fire some time," she said with a smirk.
A little bit.
Rigor rolled her eyes and smirked.
Moonlight got out of his chair then walked over to her and kissed her.
She blinked at him and her skin colored a bright red under her grey coat, "What was that for?"
That was for letting me stay here and putting up with me..and this is for just being with me for so long. he said then kissed her again.
She smiled softly at that, "It's.. it's no trouble really. You are enjoyable to have around.."
I'm glad you think so. he said smiling then decided to make his way to the stairs at his slow pace.
She tilted her head and started to follow him, curious where he was headed.
Moonlight did his mountain climb up the stairs and walked to her room and got into bed.
She walked in and looked at him confused, "You just woke up and you are going back to sleep?"
He reached inside his pillow case and pulled out a game labeled The Trotting Dead.
Rigor's eyes sparkled as she stared at the title, "I.. Is.. that... zombie.. ponies?"
Moonlight looked back at her and laughed a bit. Yup. That's exactly what it is and all the perfect story to go with it. I snuck it in one day way back before this injury. he said smiling.
Rigor jumped on the bed and looked at the box, "We should put it in now!"
Now now in due time. I honestly didn't want to show it to you yet but I figured I let you know that it does exist but this is not to played until nightmare night.
She wiggled her hooves trying to get at it, "Noooo.... I want to play it now...."
Moonlight laughed at Rigor acting like a little filly. Nope. Just knowing about it is enough for now and just so you can't find it I'm going to hide it again.
"I won't let you hide it!" she said standing over him, "You can't move as fast as I can right now."
Moonlight feeling a bit astonished that she would go to such lengths for zombie ponies. Yes..that's right.
((what is going on and is there anyway I can join >.< ))
(( Nothing much.. Rigor trying to steal a game from Moonlight. You can join in if you want. ))
Rigor smirked looking down at him, "Checkmate, Moonlight. Hand over the zombie ponies!"
Moonlight looked around getting a bad feeling about what will happen next if he doesn't hand over the game. Um..no. he said bluntly.
((Where are you))
(( Funeral home. lol ))
"No?" she questioned him and lowered her head so their noses were touching, "Did you just say no?"
Moonlight's eyes wander then meet hers. Yes?
"Somepony isn't going to be happy about that," she lunged for the game.
Moonlight moved it out of the way then slid off the bed and tried to crawl away.
Rigor frowned looking down at him, "I said, give it here."
No.. he said crawling to the stairs.
Rigor jumped so she could land in front of him, looking down at him sternly. "Do you really want to upset me?"
I've done it before and I'm still alive..barely. Besides I'm still holding onto the game and it's the very first copy so I wouldn't risk it getting damaged if I were you.
Rigor looked at him, her ears flattening at him mentioning how hurt he was, she wasn't intending on actually hurting him for a game. Just intimidate a little bit, she frowned at that, "Fine."
Moonlight couldn't help but feel a bit guilty then slid the game over to her.
Rigor grinned looking at the game, putting her hooves over it as she looked at the case. She looked at Moonlight laying there and to the game as she sighed and slid it back to him, "I guess I could wait till it's Nightmare Night.."
Moonlight shook his head. If you want to play it go ahead. he said as he crawled back to the bedroom.
Rigor sighed and picked up the game following him back to the bedroom, feeling guilty about how she behaved.
Moonlight crawled into the bed and put the blanket over him up to his head.
She walked in and put the game on the nightstand, going on the bed an looking at the mound of blanket that is supposed to be Moonlight.
Moonlight just laid there and tried to go to sleep.
She nuzzled him and laid down next to him.
Moonlight smiled and was able to sleep peacefully. The next morning Moonlight woke up before Rigor and decided to go try to make breakfast this morning.
Rigor snored laying a bit awkwardly as if she was trying to do a flip in the bed, her hooves twitched slightly.
Prim steps off the train of Ponyville express, looking around at the new town she was in
Moonlight's attempts succeeded and he finished breakfast with minimal pain and decided to go see if Rigor was awake.
Rigor laid there as still as the dead in her home.
Moonlight wondered if she was dead or sleeping as he made it into the room then decided to see how badly she could freak out so he hid under the bed.
Rigor twitched slightly in her sleep, laying there for a while as she slept on. Eventually she stirred and opened her eyes blearily.
Moonlight saw his tail was still exposed and pulled it under and held onto it.
(( Was making breakfast/lunch. ))
Rigor slowly yawned and sat up on the bed looking around, wondering where Moonlight ran off too.
((no problem))
Moonlight waited to see how she would react.
Frowning a bit, Rigor got off the bed and rubbed her eyes with her hoof.
Moonlight continued to hide under the bed.
(( Got all my stuff for the haunted house. See ya later. ))
Rigor sighed and started to walk to the door wondering if he was downstairs.
((laterz))
Moonlight poked his head from under the bed and snickered.
(( Ended up a few chores. Anyway.. really see ya. XD ))
Rigor walked out the room and headed downstairs, her tail swishing as she smelt food from the kitchen.
((lol alright))
Moonlight slid from under the bed and started making strange noises and made it seem like it was coming from the kitchen.
Rigor blinked at the noise and ran to the kitchen, "Moonlight?"
Moonlight tapped his hooves on the floor upstairs to draw her up there.
((I'll timeskip and get a green necktie and a tux.))
As Light walks around the outskirts of Ponyville he sees... The TARDIS!
"Bloody hell, it's the TARDIS!"
(gotcha since you timeskipped must mean i can has ^-^ back for my topic the library and i hope you don't mind me making up the rest of the story with TWI and discord it needs a decent ending so if you can PM me with ideas and i will have Twilight say it in the Library forum.)
-spektrum would sit in her underground home, looking down into the rushing water of the sewer from the side concrete blocks, her eyes fixated on something down below the water-
"Hmmmnnnnn" -she said with concentration-
"Huh?" Rigor blinked in confusion and slowly walked upstairs again after realizing the kitchen was empty except for the food Moonlight made.
Moonlight made a noise that led her to the bathroom.
She frowned and knocked on the door with her hoof, "Moonlight?"
Moonlight stood on the ceiling and waited for her to enter.
She stepped in, looking around confused that she couldn't see anything.
Psst..above you.
Rigor jumped and looked up seeing Moonlight on the ceiling, blinking as she stared at him. "Tell me you are stuck up there because you were playing with glue."
Nope..
"Then what -are- you doing up there exactly?"
Ya know..just hanging around.
"Cute.. and this time you stayed up high because you didn't want a repeat of the last time you scared me?" she asked pretending to be upset.
Yeah pretty much.
"So, are you coming down this year?"
If I come down can I get a kiss?
"If you are good," she smirked.
Moonlight dropped down from the ceiling slowly.
Rigor watched him, stepping back slightly to let him land.
Moonlight stood in the tub and smiled.
She gave him a raised look, "What are you doing now?"
Nothing. he said as he stepped out the tub.
"Uh huh... anyway," she pressed a kiss to his cheek.
Moonlight smirked then pulled away and kissed her on the lips.
Rigor blushed and smiled at that, "Marshmallow..."
Yup that's me. he said smiling.
She shook her head amused, "Anyway, you made breakfast this morning. Should we eat it before it get's cold?"
I'm not hungry.
"Yet you made all that food?" she questioned. Putting her hoof to his forehead, "Are you not feeling well?"
I made it for you. I figured you could use a home cooked meal.
She was touched by that and smiled softly. "Really?"
Moonlight shook his head. Of course and since I was feeling a bit better I just said to myself why the hay not and made breakfast.
Rigor pressed a firm kiss to his lips before trotting to get to the kitchen, "Then I better eat it while it's freshly prepared since you put so much work into it."
Moonlight smiled and followed her downstairs at his own pace.
She nearly ran to the kitchen, licking her lips at the sight of the hoofmade food.
Look at that flank run. he said jokingly and laughing on his way down.
She wiggled her rump, "You know you love it." Licking her lips as she stared at the fluffy pancakes before digging into them.
Moonlight went straight for the living room and turned the tv on.
Eating happily as she sat in the kitchen, enjoying it. Once she finished and was full she sighed and walked into the living room.
Unknown to Rigor, Moonlight was stretched out on the couch lazily.
Rigor blinked and went to look for Moonlight, "Where did you run off to now?"
Moonlight poked her flank. You're in the way.
Rigor jumped a bit and glared at him, "You need to stop doing that."
Well your well toned earth pony flank was blocking the tv so i had to let you know somehow. he said knowing exactly what she meant regardless of his comment.
"Well, earth ponies actually get off their lazy flank once and a while," she smirked as she wiggled her rump blocking the view some more before sitting down next to him. "So, what is the lazy pegasus watching?"
I honestly don't know..and i am not lazy.
"I'm teasing you," she muttered laying her head on him.
Moonlight wraps his tail around her. Sometimes I wonder about that. he said laughing a big.
"Just sometimes?" she smirked feeling comforted by his tail around her.
Eeyup. he said trying his best to sound like Big Mac.
Rigor laughed at that, "Nice impression."
Why are you so ticklish? he decided to come right out and ask.
Rigor blinked and blushed, "Excuse me?"
Moonlight sighs and tickles her then stops.
She started laughing and squirming before giving him a pout, "I don't know.. I mean.." She colored under her grey coat, "I guess I'm ticklish because I don't normally get tickled?"
Heh well that may change then. he said smirking.
"Honestly, who knows why some are more ticklish than others," she said before it dawned on her what he said. Getting up from the couch as she quickly backed away, "Oh no.. no no no..."
Moonlight burst out laughing. What's wrong?
"I do not trust you.." she looked at him as she kept backing away.
Moonlight pouted. Now that hurts. I thought you'd always trust me.
"I do.. except when it comes to you tickling me," she responded, "Different kind of trust and you know it."
I'm not going to tickle you. I pinkie promise. Cross my heart and hope to fly, stick a cupcake in my eye. he said following the procedure for a pinkie promise and knowing that pinkie will show up if he ever gets close to breaking it.
Rigor smiled at that and walked back to the couch and curled up beside him, after all nopony breaks a Pinkie Promise. "Alright, I have to trust you now huh?" she smirked.
Moonlight pulled her over to him with his tail. That's right.
Pressing a kiss to his cheek, "We should put something scary on."
Um..yeah..no. he said as his tail's grip tightened a bit.
She pouted, "Why not?"
I don't like anything scary.. he said bluntly.
Rigor smirked and spoke in a baby voice, "I'll protect you from all the monsters..."
Moonlight winced at that but then decided to go with it. Would you weally pwotect me fwom the bad ol monsters? he in his coltish tone.
She laughed rolling her eyes, "Yes. I will."
Good. Well play your movie if you want. he said being a bit shaky.
(( Grocceries had to be brought in.. Good news. Food. ))
She grinned at that, "Really?!"
((yay food))
Moonlight shook his to agree.
"Oh what should we watch?!" she jumped off the couch excited going to her horror movie collection which she kept in a huge closet to itself, obviously was once a broom closet that she expanded.
I don't even wanna know why that's there. he said eyeing the horror movie collection.
"It here to be awesome," she smirked, "Mm.. shall we go for suspense and psychological horror or just good old fashion gore fest?"
Um..how about you pick and I'll hide my face the whole movie.
"Awww.. that's no fun," she pouted and reached out her hoof to pick out a movie. Picking a good zompony film, she held up Zompony Dancers, "Have you seen this?"
Nope. he said in his Big Mac voice. ..and I honestly don't want to but if you want to see it I'll watch it with you he said sincerely.
"Well.. I picked this one for a reason," she colored a bit, "It's more funny than scary. Plus it's only for adult ponies, the infection gets in this adult dance club and only the mares are able to think consciously where the stallions are just mindless zomponies."
Well alright. I'll give it a try for you.
"You just want to see the mare's flanks," she grinned, though she didn't blame him. It was a reason she wanted to use this video. After all it was more hilarious than scary, walking to the tv to put in the movie before hopping on the couch. "If you get scared just hide against me."
I rather it be your flank but I won't complain. he said smiling.
"I'm not nearly as graceful as the mares in this movie," she smirked.
I think you'd be just fine.
"Well once you see them, you'll understand." She leaned against him as the movie started, opening up with the typical military setting of building super soldiers with zombies until it hilariously parody the issues and standard outbreak problem.
Moonlight snickered at the poor telling of the outbreak problem.
She smirked as it spread and one of the zompony stallions went into the adult dancing club, as some mares danced around. Eventually the stallion biting another stallion.
That's disturbing. he pointed out as the stallion bit the other one.
She shrugged as the stallion tried to crawl on the stage to the mares as they screamed some of them only having half of their saddles on. He bit hard on one of the mares' hoof before the other one finished the stallion off. "It's not that bad," she muttered.
Moonlight gave that comment a look of concern but didn't say anything.
Rigor watched amused as the story played on, the mares becoming zomponies on purpose to get bigger tips. Eating certain paying customers and generally infecting everypony on purpose.
Are they that desperate for money? he said seeing them get bit on purpose.
"Yeah, apparently this line of work doesn't pay well if you don't get tipped," she sighed, "Besides, as you can tell they don't see a downside to it right now."
I do. Your not doing the same thing right now. he said smiling.
"The same thing?" she said looking at him.
He rewinded the video the the mares dancing before they got bit. Yes. The same thing. he said pointing to the screen then fast forwarding it back to it's current point.
Rigor laughed, "You want me to dance for you like that?"
Moonlight nodded being very honest at this point.
"Maybe if you are good, after the movie," she said turning her eyes back to the film.
Moonlight smiled and watched the rest of the movie finding it funny.
Of course the movie came to an end when the military came in and started shooting everything even the zompony mares. Rigor sighed, "Why does the "good guys" always have to win?"
It is kinda stupid honestly. he said agreeing with her.
"That's why I like Dawn of the Zomponies, it shows them all failing," she smirked as the movie rolled it's credits.
Moonlight snickered at that while taking her word for it.
She looked at Moonlight, "Wasn't so scary right?"
Nope..
She smirked at that, "See I told you. Not all my horror movies are scary. I should show you Zomponyland!"
Seen it..
"What did you think?" she asked curious.
It was pretty cool. Moonlight then stopped and thought about it. Where's my reward for being a good pony thru that movie?
"Um..." she blushed a bit and smiled, "Well.. I suppose we could go upstairs and I can try that dancing thing.."
Moonlight smiled and got off the couch slowly and made his way to the stairs.
She rolled her eyes and headed upstairs, "Should I show you my Nightmare Night costume early too?"
That'd be nice. he said smiling then letting his mind wander as to what she'll be.
She smirked and walked into her room, "Alright close your eyes so I can move my costume in the bathroom and get changed to surprise you."
Moonlight hopped onto the bed and covered his eyes.
Picking up her costume that was in a bag from her closet she ran into the bathroom and shut the door. Struggling to put the costume on and even falling on her face a few times getting the socks over her legs, being an earth pony does give a disadvantage.
Moonlight continued to wait with his eyes covered and started humming his favorite song.
Once she was sure she was perfectly dressed she posed a bit in the mirror, smirking at her reflection. "Alright! You can look," she called out opening the door and standing there. Red devil horns on the top of her head, a black collar on her neck, shiny and tight black socks on her legs, black bat wings on her back, all ending with a red devil tail that contained her actual tail inside it. "What do you think? Can you guess what I am?"
Moonlight uncovered his eyes and was clueless but was also stunned by how she looked in her costume. Um.. was all he could say.
"I'm wearing this all Nightmare Night!" she was proud of the work she put into it and walked in the center of the room and spun around, "Can you guess what I'm dressed as?"
Moonlight knew the name but couldn't put his hoof on it mainly because he was still mesmerized by how good she looked in it. "Is that weird?" he thought to himself.
She watched him before tilting her head worried that it wasn't obvious. "Oh.. um.. I'm a succubus.." she said coloring under her coat, "I guess it's not well known.."
"That's right. It was on the tip of my tongue. Sorry..I was just stunned by it looking so good on you"
Rigor blushed brighter at that, "Oh? Does it?" She flicked her tail nervously which made the devil tail twitch as if it was her tail. "Thank you."
Moonlight smiled. "So do you think you can remind me of what they do?" he said smirking.
(( Haunted house was aweeesome... I love scaring others! ovO ))
Rigor colored and sighed a bit, "Alright, I can try anyway." She slowly and feeling a bit awkward tried to dance by swaying side to side.
Moonlight smiled at her attempt to dance and was enjoying it.
((awesome :3))
"You know.. this isn't working," she stopped and went to put on music so she had something to dance to.
Moonlight watched and wondered what difference music would make.
She closed her eyes as the music played, it was loud and angry. Lots of banging and yelling as she swayed to it and started to actually dance to it, her movements were fierce as she twirled with what seemed to be an invisible partner.
Moonlight watched and was both amazed and astonished with her movements and was left speechless.
Rigor lost herself as if she was alone, twirling and dancing just as those girls did in the movie though they were sharper movements as she kept in time with the music. Freezing in place as the song ended and her breathing was labored with the effort.
Moonlight's mouth was wide open and he couldn't believe what he just witnessed. That..was..so awesome.
She opened her eyes and turned red, looking down at her hooves. She honestly forgot for a few moments he was there. "I.. um.."
Moonlight held his hooves and smiled out so his succubus marefriend could cuddle with him.
Rigor frowned and looked away as if she debated on seeing if she could some how sink into the floor, though her frown didn't last long as it flickered to a smile. A small nervous chuckle escaping her and she went on to the bed to cuddle with her coltfriend.
Don't succubi make somepony their's thru a kiss or so I've read.
"Actually they suck out a pony's soul though their mouth and leave them as an empty shell," she smirked at him before pressing a kiss to his mouth.
Moonlight kissed back and added a bit of force on his end.
Rigor blushed and smiled a bit, her coltfriend always seemed to make the first move with the two of them.
Moonlight smiled and nuzzled his marefriend and closed his eyes.
She nuzzled him back, feeling a bit better about embarrassing herself.
(( Sorry... keep passing out going to bed. ))
((lol alright))
Moonlight slept peacefully with his marefriend in his hooves.
"HAPPY BIRTHDAY VANGARD!!!!" spektrum would scream at the top of her lungs as she dashed to her mate, nuzzling him gently
(( Lol is it his birthday? ))
Rigor opened her eyes, blinking several times before rolling over and going back to sleep.
((yes. yez it is))
Moonlight woke up before Rigor again but this time decided to stay in bed.
She kicked out her hooves towards Moonlight, stretching a bit as she woke up again and realized she slept in her costume.
Moonlight tail brushed her cutie mark. You awake now?
Rigor jumped a bit and gave him a look, "Sorta..."
Sorta isn't good enough. he said brushing his tail against her cutie mark again.
She gave him a look as she jerked from his tail the second time, "Jerk..."
Moonlight smiled and nuzzled her playfully.
Rigor huffed but softened at his nuzzling.
What's on the agenda today? he asked happily.
"Getting out of this costume for one," she muttered with a yawn, "Other than that.. I'm not too sure.."
Moonlight pouted. I like you in this costume.It shows off your good features. he said brushing his tail against her flank and smirking.
"Uh huh...." she said putting her teeth to the sock on one of her forelegs, trying to pull it off. She jerked slightly at his tail, "Honestly, one would think you only like me for my flank."
Only you would think that. he said giving her a kiss then hopping off the bed and stretching.
"You play with it often enough," she smirked removing her costume slowly trying not to ruin it.
Yet it's still not enough. he said smiling slyly.
"Perv," she muttered endearingly as she took off her devil tail and horns, struggling with the wings a moment before carrying them to put in a box in her closet.
I heard that..and even if I am then I'm your perv. he said laughing as he headed downstairs.
"Keep being proud of it and I'll be forced to chain you up!" she called back to him as she shook her head. Laughing all the same before she followed him downstairs.
Yes please. he said rolling on the floor laughing at the foot of the stairs after his faked acceptance.
She looked down at him and rolled her eyes, "You would enjoy it far too much. It wouldn't be a punishment.."
Of course not. As long as you have control of the situation it's never a punishment. he said smiling.
She stepped over him and looked down, "Considering I'm always in control you have no problem then."
Even though I've been taking the lead in most things so far? he said staring at her.
Rigor colored a bit at that, "Well.. there are a few things I always take the lead. Like scary things..."
Moonlight falls silent. Point taken.
She smirked, flicking her short tail, "Also you don't know what I'm like when restraints are involved." She was teasing of course as she hopped over him, "So, I don't have any bodies to work with today. We should do something fun."
What should we do specifically?
"Well..." she thought about it, there really wasn't to do much in Ponyville. "Want to go to Appleoosa to check it out?"
Sure why not even though it would be faster if I could fly.
"You can fly, I can't. I'll have to take the train."
I still hurt a little and I'm not comfortable with trains.. he stated honestly.
"Then how do you expect us to get there with you injured and against trains?" she asked confused.
((Hot air balloon? ovO))
((what a great idea ovO))
Why don't we take the hot air balloon Twilight and her friends have. I'm sure they'll let us borrow it.
"I don't really know them," she said confused and not really trusting her life in something that could possibly be stopped by a bumblebee.
Well luckily I do and don't worry I'm sure it's been reinforced with Twi's magic to keep something simple from popping it.
"What happened to keeping all four hooves on the ground?" she asked a bit nervous.
I dragged you into the sky once right so why so nervous now?
"You had your wings and that seems safer than a floating basket tied to a party balloon."
Do you trust me? he asked heading for the door.
"I trust -you-," she muttered following him, "I don't trust the toy you expect us to travel in."
Well you should. he said making his way out the door.
(( Stupid 508 resource error! >:O ))
Following him as she sulked and shut her door. Hoping that Miss Sparkle wouldn't let them borrow the balloon. "We could do something safer, like jump off a cliff," she muttered to herself.
You're still complaining. AJ and Pinkie don't complain about it and they're in the same boat as you. he said chuckling.
"Pinkie Pie is...." she couldn't think of word beyond her name, "well, Pinkie Pie. I've never seen Apple Jack in the balloon before, at least she is smart enough to keep her hooves on the ground."
(( AJ was in it once to get to cloudsdale.. she isn't in it more than that. Pinkie Pie.. she makes things to fly. XD ))
((she was on it when they wrangled RD in episode 2 of season 2))
Moonlight laughed at her trying to find a word for Pinkie. If you say so. he said as he headed for the library
(( Oh right. XD I thought she was on the ground during that. My bad. Well she still probably wouldn't have seen her though since ya know... Discord taking over ponyville. ))
Following him she sighed as they neared the library, hoping that Miss Sparkle was somewhere else using her balloon.
((Can I join))
(( Sure! ))
((point taken))
Moonlight walked up to the library and knocked on the door. The door opens and it turns out Spike answered the door. Oh hey Moonlight what brings you here?
Hey Spike is Twilight home?
Yeah she's inside practicing a new spell.
Can you go get her please?
Sure. Be right back. Spike turns to go get Twilight.
" Hey moonlight what brings you here?"Twilight asked.
We wanted to go to Appleloosa and we wanted to know if we could use your hot air balloon.
Elluka was walking to the library with Flame to see if Twilight had a certain book they was looking for
Rigor frowned at this backing slowly up, she looked around for some sort of distraction really not wanting to do what Moonlight's plan was. "I wanted to use a train..."
Moonlight stops Rigor from trying to leave while waiting on Twilight's answer.
The two walk into the library
Rigor,There's no need to be nervous my balloon is one of the safest modes of transport you have no need to worry. and sure you can use it moonlight, and the two of you looking for the book i will be there to help in just a second.
Moonlight smiled. Awesome. Thanks Twi. he runs around back dragging Rigor with him.
Rigor didn't feel comforted as she tried to dug her hooves at the ground trying to stop from being dragged, "Y-Ya know.. I think I do have a body to embalm...."
I thought I was the scaredy pony in ponyville. he said pulling her into the basket.
The two are curious about the three they decide to follow them
"Why couldn't we just take the train!" she cried trying to crawl back out of the basket, "I don't wanna go!"
(( Sorry cooking dinner. ))
Moonlight used his tail to keep her from leaving and began to put air into the balloon and it starts to take off.
Rigor tried to jump over the edge even though his tail was keeping her from leaving, seeing the ground start to vanish she shook and hid in the basket with her hooves over her eyes.
Moonlight sighed and smiled being able to Rigor scared for a change and decided to give her a hug to help her calm down.
"You do realize if we fall we can die...." she looked at him panicking.
On the floor of the Basket was a box labeled :CALMING CANDIES FOR NERVOUS NELLIES:
Look there. Moonlight picked up one of the candies and handed it to her. Here eat this.
the two go back into the library
Welcome back to the library ^-^ you were interested in what those two were doing weren't you they are going to Appleoosa for some reason but i am here to help you now
we are looking for a spell book for dark arts
We have a few but, may i ask why you need them?
Rigor wrinkled her nose at it, "Sounds like stupid magic.. how do I know it doesn't have hallucination mushrooms in it?"
(Moonlight Read the ingredients on the back of the box)
Moonlight picked up the box and looked at the ingredients.
"They are not going in my mouth, I don't like the idea of drugs altering my mind. Fear is a good thing to have it makes you react quicker," she spoke defiant about the candy.
As he read the ingredients he threw a candy at her to test that theory.
(I tried :l )
(( She is very stubborn. :] ))
Rigor looked at it disgusted before turning her nose up at it.
Well I mist keep my title as the best witch in Levianta if I am to be in charge of Project MA the limegreen Pegasus says
Moonlight had an idea and popped a piece in his mouth and hid it well so he looked normal then sat next to her an kissed her and basically force fed it to her.
"Well here are the books we have" Twilight said levitating the books off the shelves "Hope these are helpful"
Rigor blinked at him as he sat next to her, eyeing him suspiciously until he kissed her. Closing her eyes enjoying the kiss until she felt something hard go in her mouth and down her throat. Sputtering as it was too late to get it out and it was already down her throat, "Y-You.. how -dare- you!"
(( I'm not sure what the effects are exactly.. ))
Only way for a pony as stubborn as you to eat it and calm the hay down. he said with a victorious smile.
(sorta like anxiety pill but you are still yourself just a little more calm)
thank you for the books Elluka says As for me I would like to see your best mystery novel
"I am never.. trusting you again!" she growled at him and moved as far as she could in the basket. She hated to admit it but she was starting to calm down which just annoyed her.
"Here, Vanguard enjoys the mystery novels too be careful with magic and the words Vanguard and notes he likes to put notes in the books he's a writer too and he makes notes on how to make his books good so if you start to see circles around paragraphs in luminescent highlighting those are vanguard's notes he thinks i don't know about them but sometimes i read the notes for my amusement " Vanguard levitates the pony a couple mystery novels.
Moonlight continued to put air in the balloon when needed and then thought of something. Well since I'm so untrustworthy I guess I'll just go. he jumped out the basket and seemingly flew away but is secretly following underneath the basket.
I am also somewhat of a writer mostly murder mystery drama and horror anyways thank you for the books The two walks out of the library
(( School day.. probably wont see ya'll till way later tonight. ))
Rigor sat there, blinking as Moonlight flew away. She should be panicking, she knew she should be panicking and upset and screaming for him to come back. However, she didn't care, giving a sigh and rolling her eyes as she curled up in the basket. Muttering, "Stupid candy..."
((Aww its okay))
Moonlight peeked his head over the basket on the side behind her and saw that she was curled up and decided to hop back in and gave her a kiss unknown to her.
(( So see ya... gotta drive... ))
Rigor sighed as she laid there with her eyes closed, they snapped open when she felt the pressure of the kiss. Looking up at that in surprise.
((alrightey. be safe.))
Moonlight looked down at her and smiled sheepishly. Sorry about earlier but you had to calm down some way and that was the only way you were going to eat the dang thing.
She gave him a look, "I calmed down before on my own when you flew with me. Now when this drug wears off I'll be just as panicked as before. All you did was delay it and make me not care too much."
Actually we're here. he pointed to Appleoosa in the distance.
She raised an eyebrow, laying there a moment before looking over the basket. "So we are," she muttered a bit monotone.
Moonlight smiled then kissed her again. I'm still sorry about earlier.
"When I am able to I'll be properly mad at you," she said.
When I ruin something precious of yours?
"When the stupid drug is out of my system."
Of course.
She blinked and stared at the dusty town as they neared it, "It's smaller than Ponyville."
Yeah but it's so..dusty. he said frowning knowing it would be hard to sleep with dust in his eyes everyday.
"We don't have to stay long," she spoke in a flat voice.
Moonlight's ears flattened from her flat tone. Alright.
"Mostly I wanted to come and see everything since it was new," she blinked several times at it. This wasn't as interesting as she thought it would be, though she wondered if the candy was to blame for that.
Well alright then. he said not getting out of the basket.
She jumped out of the basket and waited for him, looking over her shoulder, "Well?"
Can't I just watch you walk away and let that suffice me for the whole trip?
"What would be the point of us coming then, if only for you to drug me?" she asked, her voice should be in rage but it came out dully. Feeling far too foggy to care as she turned and walked, "Fine, whatever you wish."
(( I've taken anti-anxiety meds before.. seriously.. they suck. :l ))
Moonlight knew those words were full of rage even though they sounded calm and started to regret what he did even more.
She walked with her head down and her ears flat as she headed into Appleloosa, looking at the various strange hats. Knowing she wanted to come here to get clothes but she couldn't bring herself to really focus or care too much. She didn't even look behind her to check if Moonlight was following her, wondering if she could get a train out of here soon so she could go home to just sleep.
Moonlight peeked his head out of the basket to see how far he had gone and wondered if she hated him for what he did then got out of the basket and followed her slowly and secretively.
She sat in front of a store that sold apple pies, staring at the window for a long time. Unable to decide if she care enough that she was hungry to eat.
Moonlight caught up then hovered over her and landed on her back lightly so she wouldn't even know he was there.
Rigor blinked slowly, un-moving as she tried to get her mind to at least push past the fog that seemed to fill it.
Moonlight hung his head over hers and gave her an upside down kiss.
She blinked, normally she would jump and be surprised but all she gave was a slow blink. "You followed," she commented, she would have been happy if she could make herself push past the fog.
Yup. Is there anything I can do to help?
"I'm not sure," she muttered turning her eyes to the window, "Do you have the wrapper?"
Moonlight dropped a wrapper in front of her. Not the original but it's from the same thing.
She looked it over and sighed, "Four hours... I still have about two to one to go until this starts to wear off.."
I see. Well just want to walk around the town for a while and sight see until it wears off?
"Alright," she said looking up at him.
Moonlight didn't get off her back considering his marefriend has lifted heavier and let her walk as he pointed out places.
She looked where he pointed, her eyes blinked slowly as she started to actually drift off a few times.
With every place Moonlight pointed out he gave a very detailed but short explanation as if he was studying under Twilight.
"How do you know so much? Been here before?"
I've read about it plus freelancing for Twi means you tend to learn..a lot.
"What's the square root of zero?" she asked as the corners of her mouth twitched slightly as if she would smirk.
Uh..zero? he said hesitantly.
"There is no correct answer," she gave him a look, still quite foggy but trying to get her teasing back.
Moonlight's ears flattened. Oh. Guess I'm not too good at math yet.
"That's alright, it was a trick question."
Oh..well its been about an hour and a half so how do you feel now?
"I think I should get some water and something to eat," she said though she was smirking from teasing him about the trick question. She did feel a lot better, though she also remembered how upset and angry she was.
Moonlight felt that she may get angry again and did what he does best..irritate her lovingly by poking her cutie mark.
Rigor jumped at that and turned to glare and growl at him, "You.. are the biggest jacka-" she was cut off by a donkey near by making its signature noise.
No. I'm pretty sure he is. he said pointing at the donkey and laughing then poked her cutie mark again.
She flattened her ears as she jumped, glaring at him. Snarling a bit, "Stop it, it isn't cute right now."
Moonlight's ear flattened and his tail went between his legs and he started to flutter back to the basket.
"Oh sure! RUN OFF!" she yelled at him as he started to fly away, granted she could feel the guilt bubble but she forced it down. After all she had a right to be angry.
Moonlight cringed at the anger in her voice and instead of fluttering he ended up flying off.
She glared after him as he flew off, screaming and not caring at the ponies looking at her strangely. After all she told him she didn't want to be drugged, she sat down and closed her eyes as she shook. "Stupid.. featherbrained..."
Moonlight flew all the way back to ponyville with tears in his eyes but then passed out when crossing over the hospital and landed right at it's front door.
Rigor sat there, she waited for him to come back. Her eyes closed tight, holding back everything. She hated being out in public and feeling this terrible. She growled at anypony that dared to try to talk to her.
Little did she know that Moonlight wasn't coming back that day since the hospital found him and gave him a room to rest in after finding him unconscious on their doorstep.
Tiger was sitting at the window of Moonlight's hospital room. "Tough day huh?"
I don't even know why I'm here. I'm not even hurt. he thought to himself angrily as he got out of the bed.
Vanguard walks into the room where Moonlight is"What are you doing here,didn't you borrow Twilight's Balloon to go to Appleoosa? "
Yes and I don't know why I'm here. Moonlight walks past him and flies back toAppleloosa to get Twilight's balloon.
Rigor sat there until it was dark, she shook with rage as the time ticked by. Once she was asked by what seemed to be the hundredth pony if she was alright she stood up, "Fine." Storming to the inn to sleep there for the night.
The next morning she decided to have fun without Moonlight, still angry at him but she forced it back. Taking her time to wander around the town and go shopping for the clothes she came originally for.
Moonlight landed in Applelossa and looked around for Rigor after making sure the balloon wasn't stolen or destroyed.
She twirled in front of a mirror in an red and black dress, looking at the various feathers on her head. She smiled enjoying the look of it, hearing that they ran out of the same dress but in purple after a pink cotton candy maned pony wore it for a song.
Moonlight looked in the clothing store recalling that Rigor wanted to come here because of that reason and saw Rigor twirling in front of the mirror then decided sneak up to her even though she could possibly see him in the mirror.
Rigor blinked seeing Moonlight in the mirror, she ran into the dressing room as quick as possible and remained in there.
Moonlight poked his head over the dressing room she ran in and stayed quiet while looking down at her.
Rigor sat in the dressing room and looked up, she stared at him before giving a smirk and screaming. "Shop owner! There is a stallion looking into the dressing room!"
You do realize the shop owner stepped out and we ponies are usually naked anyway right. he said countering her attempt to get him thrown out.
She growled a bit removing her dress and stockings, "If he was here he would still make you step back while a mare is changing. No matter if we are usually naked or not."
Right. Moonlight got down and waited for her to come out.
She took her time folding the clothes and sighed when she did everything possible before putting the dress on her back and walking out of the dressing room to the counter. Passing Moonlight with flick of her tail.
Moonlight flinched from her tail being flicked at him then followed behind her.
She waited at the counter until the shop owner came back and paid for her dress before leaving and holding the bag between her teeth. She had one more place in mind to go to.
Where ya going now?
She turned her head to show the bag was in her mouth, using it as an excuse not to speak as she headed to the bakery so she could get an apple pie.
Moonlight took her bag for her hoping to get back on her good side if he did some nice things for her..carrying her bag for one.
She narrowed her eyes at him, though she realize he was trying when he took her bag. "I'm still upset at you," she said, "Though it will fade. I want to get one of their famous apple pies."
Hai hai he said out loud willing to be she doesn't know japanese and followed behind her.
Rigor raised an eyebrow, "Why did you say "hi" twice?"
(( Well I know a tad of Japanese but no.. she doesn't. XD ))
((aha I knew it XD))
I said yeah twice. he said smirking.
Rigor stared at him figuring he was just trying to make her smile and she shook her head, "Sure..." Walking into the bakery and ordering about five pies she was planning on bringing home.
Any more sweets and that flank will need a better workout than just carrying dead ponies. he said smiling.
She ignored him and waited for her boxes stacking them on her back as she went to leave the bakery, "Right, and why don't you give me my bag back." She grabbed the bag with her teeth and pulled to take it from him.
Moonlight pushed himself into a kiss with her on purpose.
Rigor blushed and nearly pushed back before pulling away from him. Narrowing her eyes and flicking her tail at his nose like a short whip before trotting towards the train station.
Moonlight's nose scrunched up from the tail whip and followed closely behind smiling.
Rigor paid for a ticket for herself and she walked to wait for the train, she was never going to get in the balloon again.
Moonlight flew back to the balloon and took off.
She walked onto the train, realizing Moonlight wasn't following her as she took a seat and put all her purchases in the seat next to hers.
Moonlight made it back to ponyville before Rigor and waited for her at the funeral home.
Rigor looked out the window the whole way, even falling asleep a few times before she was finally back at Ponyville. Carrying her boxes and bag as she walked to her funeral home slowly, tired and wanting nothing more than to relax.
Moonlight fixed her bed and made some tea to help her relax when she gets home since she deserved it he though to himself.
She pushed open the door, blinking a bit as she figured she forgot to lock it but it didn't matter much in Ponyville. Walking in with her head lowered as she placed her bag down in the living room, her nose and ears twitched a bit, she didn't leave the stove on the whole time she was out did she?
Even though she may not like being carried Moonlight dropped down behind her and grabbed her then carried her upstairs to her bedroom all at one time. Tea, a bath and your bed have been fixed for your relaxation time.
Rigor's eyes went wide and she thrashed in an attempt to kick and bite at whoever grabbed her. She blinked realizing it was him and growled, "Let me..." She didn't finish as she raised an eyebrow at what he said, "Really? What about my pies they need to get in the fridge.."
Moonlight flew downstairs, put the pies in the fridge and came back upstairs in ten secs flat.
She sat on the bed, waiting for him as he returned quickly. "So.. you made tea? Proper tea?"
Yup. he pointed to the hot tea and the kettle next to her side of the bed.
She eyed the kettle, "Exactly three and a half minutes of seeping?" Reaching her hooves over to pick up the tea cup to sip it.
((seeping? lol))
(( ... You don't know that term? Fine I'll pull up the dictionary.. seeping present participle of seep
Verb:
(of a liquid) Flow or leak slowly through porous material or small holes. ))
((oh that seeping..duh. :c))
Of course.
(( I was about to say... well there goes a proper cup of tea.. ovO ))
Rigor smiled happily as she enjoyed the rich flavor.
Moonlight went to go make sure the bath was still warm.
Her tail still flicked annoyed though she was enjoying the tea. At least he was trying to make it up to her, and for that she tried to calm down her anger that was flaring like fire.
Moonlight came back with his ears flattened hoping she wasn't boiling mad at him since he was truly sorry and was working really hard to make it up to her.
"Sit on the bed," she demanded as she poured herself another cup of tea.
Moonlight follows orders and sits on the bed.
Rigor gave him a look over her teacup as she drank, "You are doing things a pony would do that seems apologetic except for one very important one."
He looks at her silently and confused wondering what she meant.
She waited for him to say it, after all he hasn't apologized yet.
I'm sorry for doing what I did on the balloon. he said sounding like a colt who angered his mom.
"And?" she inquired expecting one for him abandoning her.
Moonlight sunk down a bit. ..and for leaving abandoning you there.
"Did you know," she started putting the tea cup down, "That what really hurt.. wasn't you drugging me against my will. It was that you didn't come back after flying away."
You were so upset and I thought I had messed up what we had and I guess I must've passed out cause I woke up in the hospital the next morning.
Her eyes widened at that, "The hospital?! Are you alright?" She scoffed a bit feeling guilty about him being so upset he ended up in the hospital, "I was upset, you did something I was against. Though I understood that you thought it would help me. I wouldn't be so foolish to make something like that destroy what we have."
Moonlight lays his head on her lap. I'm truly sorry about everything that happened up til now.
Rigor looked down at him and put her tea cup down before she looked down at him and rested her hoof over his head. "I believe you," she smiled softly looking down at him, after all what crazy stallion would try so hard to make up unless he meant it.
Moonlight smiled and nuzzled up to her not moving from his current position.
She moved a bit to relax on the bed and enjoy Moonlight's nuzzling.
Moonlight continued to nuzzle her and wondered how she was reacting to it.
Rigor closed her eyes and smiled, enjoying every bit of Moonlight's attention.
Moonlight stopped then kissed her with enough force to push her down.
Rigor's eyes widened as she was pushed down, blinking several times in the kiss before closing them again.
Moonlight kept the pressure on and didn't pull away.
She leaned into it a bit before putting her hoof to his chest to push him away. "Alright, I accept your apology already."
(( Keeping it G. ))
Moonlight grins sheepishly. Good.
((I totally had that under control
))
Rigor shook her head and laughed a bit, "Anyway, I would like to try some of that pie I bought."
(( Sure.. you did...
))
Moonlight stood up ready to get it for her. Warm or cold?
((I'm so sure that I could help Pinkamena make cupcakes and eat them myself. ovO))
(( Why what could you mean by that?
))
((it means what it means and if you continue to question me then your number might come up next ovO))
(( Okay, Okay ... you just well, umm i just wish i could read a story about you two without certain limitations it seems that there are things about Moonlight and Rigor that go beyond this fourm the two of you have very good character development.))
((honestly if you think of your oc as a part of you then you can kinda think about what they would normally do in that situation beyond the limits of the show based guidelines but that's my way of looking at it))
(( I try my hardest to keep my Oc's like my public face things i wouldn't say in certain company but if you ever heard my Rainbow blitz voice Lauren Faust might not think that was okay for him lol he's kinda a potty mouth so to speak))
((lol))
(( .... Apparently you two don't know about ibrony.. it's a my little pony rp/social/art site with absolutely no limits. ))
She thought about it for a moment and licked her lips, "Warm."
Hai ojou-sama he dashes to the kitchen and cuts a slice of pie and warms it up slightly then dashes back to her and places the plate on her lap.
Rigor blinked at that, confused about what he said, "Right..." Smiling when he returned with the pie, gazing at it happily, "Let's see how it compares to Sweet Apple Acres."
Moonlight walked out so she could enjoy it in peace and went to go get himself a small slice.
(( I joined the site thanks, can't wait to try to see the rest of my friends here on there.))
Rigor watched him leave before taking a bite of her pie. A happy smile crossing her face enjoying it's warmth and how well it tasted.
Moonlight came back upstairs with a cold small slice of pie then sat next to Rigor and put it at his bedside.
She tilted her head and looked at Moonlight, "How is it cold?"
Better than I thought to be honest.
"Want to try some of my slice?" she asked curious now how it tasted cold.
Nope. he said with a smile.
"Fine then," she stuck her tongue out and continued eating.
Moonlight laid there and watched her eat.
Once she was finished she put the plate aside and sighed laying on the bed.
Moonlight rubbed her belly and cutie mark to see how she would react.
Rigor jerked at the sudden touch and squirmed a bit looking at him, "What are you doing?"
Pushing my luck he said honestly.
"Does that seem like a smart idea?" she asked though she didn't make much of an effort to move.
Actually it does. he said being very blunt about it.
"You -do- realize I can buck you out of my house," she spoke amused and pushed her hoof to Moonlight's nose.
Moonlight scrunched his nose. Yeah I know but you wouldn't do that to cute lil ol me would ya..
"Nah," she admitted and smirked, "Besides it would probably break your marshmallow heart."
Even marshmallows need love too he said smiling.
"I suppose, though it makes me feel guilty about putting them in cocoa."
Well think of me as the ones you sacrificed for your enjoyment that manifested themselves into a pony like figure he said smiling stupidly.
"Well, that eases that guilt," she smirked and pushed her hooves against his shoulder teasing him.
Moonlight smirked at the teasing and kept rubbing her belly and cutie mark.
((i still feel like these two could go a bit further but not here obviously. That's just me though.))
(( Oh they could and Rigor could be a bit more detailed about her work though here it's impossible. ))
Rigor squirmed and wiggled her hooves trying to get him to stop teasing her.
Moonlight stops even though he enjoyed applying the pressure so to speak.
((what do you propose we do about that?))
(( Well we could make a roleplay on ibrony I suppose.. ))
She looked at him and smirked pushing at his shoulder before jumping off the bed.
Moonlight watched and smiled then hovers over the bed unknown to him.
((up to you since they're both victims in each others eyes as far as I can tell.))
(( Lol yeah. XD ))
She flicked her tail before trotting to the door, "As much as I would love to relax all day I need to check if anything got "delivered" while I was out."
Ooo. What kind of delivery? he asked seeming a bit nosy.
(( Sorry was out for a bit. In about an hour or less I'll be leaving to go vote. ))
Rigor smirked looking at him, "Well, it's not supplies, nor is it caskets. That leaves only one other delivery this establishment gets."
Moonlight thought about it for a bit and blushed maybe thinking it was something for her own personal needs.
(( Lol my voting place ran out of english stickers. ))
She looked over her paperwork in her den, frowning a bit as she tried to make sense of some of the deliveries.
((lol oh wow))
Moonlight watched her to see what she usual does during her work days.
Looking over the paper work she sorted some things out before heading to her prep room carrying a clipboard.
Moonlight continued to follow and stay out of the way.
She strolled to the freezer and opened it to look around and make sure she was grabbing the correct body she needed.
Moonlight was intrigued at how focused she was.
Rigor grabbed the correct older mare and pulled out her body and into the prep room.
Moonlight did start to wonder why she was so quiet when she worked.
She got on her hind legs and carefully set up the mare on her silver table before going to get her gloves and pulling them over her front hooves.
Moonlight watches carefully and closely.
Rigor flicked her tail as she grabbed her tools and started to prep the embalming pump, leaving it for a moment to touch the mare's coat and skin. Giving a nod before she turned back to the pump to put in the needed bottles of conditioner, formaldehyde, and various toners to help with the skin as well as a faint dye to help with the change in skin color.
Moonlight continued to watch but looked a little confused at what was going on.
She pressed a button to let it mix as she turned to the mare, grabbing at her front hooves as she slowly massaged her skin and her legs. Taking care to work the muscles that were locked and stiff from decay and the freezer.
Moonlight looked in awe at his marefriend's concentration and determination at what she does.
Rigor hummed slightly as she continued her work, once she was sure she got the mare's muscles able to freely be moved she started setting her body. Getting a block she put under the mare's neck, carefully setting her so she looked as if she was resting. She went for a few more blocks to set up her forelegs carefully so when she added the formaldehyde it would look perfectly in the casket.
Moonlight couldn't utter a word at how professional is marefriend was when it came to this.
She turned to hold up a bottle as she poured it on a cloth and carefully started to clean every inch of the mare's coat with disinfectant.
Moonlight very closely and watched how clean a body.
After Rigor had disinfected the mare's body before she got a small tub of cream and she started to massage it around her mouth and eyes, as well as any place there was small abrasions or separation of her skin.
Moonlight couldn't keep quiet anymore. What's the cream for?
Rigor smirked, "It's too keep the skin from splitting or shrinking back. Also to keep it looking healthy."
Oh I see. Alright then. Moonlight then continuedto watch her work.
She shook her head and put the cream away before pushing up the mare's eyelids, reaching for a dome cap as she slipped it over the mare's eye and closed the lid over it.
Moonlight look confused again but didn't ask and rsk interrupting what she was doing.
"If you have any questions, you may ask," she smiled as she walked to the other side of the table to do the same to the other eye.
What are you doing now..specifically?
"Putting caps under her eyes, after you die your eyes are one of the first that decompose so they gain a sunken appearance and it's the last thing you want to see on your love one. So they will keep an appearance that she is just sleeping," she commented as she applied more cream to her eyes after putting the caps under her eye lids.
Oh that makes sense. he said smiling and watching closely.
(( Okay.. the rest involves incisions and I know that can't be G so unfortunately I can't go though the entire embalming process. ))
((pm it cause I honestly wanna know myself.))
(( Or I can do a whole thing on ibrony. *Smiles* Right now... ))
Rigor sighed out in the graveyard quite a few hours later as she was forming and marking an area to put a vault in.
((even better O:))
Moonlight was inside cleaning up and washing dishes while watching Rigor thru the window.
(( ovO See.. I have smart ideas sometimes. ))
She dug at the earth, panting a bit as she got down three feet and widening it to the proper dimensions. "I swear, I need somepony to help me with this one day.."
After Moonlight finished cleaning he walked outside. Need help?
(( Sorry I'm slow. Was listening to the presidential speech. ))
Rigor looked up, she was five feet down and still had another foot to go, "Well.. I could use your help getting out when I need to."
((Thats fine. at least I'm not the only one. :D))
Alright. Moonlight watches her dig and wonders how deep is has to be.
Rigor kept to her digging, being as careful as possible as she got to the six foot mark. Setting up the vault as she secured the dirt walls the best she could with her two tired front hooves.
Moonlight flew into the hole and hovered down slowly. How do you usually get out of here?
"Usually I have a rope to pull myself up," she sighed, "I forgot about it this time."
Did you remember I was here?
Rigor flattened her ears, "If I say yes..."
Nothing really he said smiling.
She smiled at that and once she was sure the vault was in place she looked up at him, "Alright, can you help me out?"
Moonlight picked her up by her hind legs and started to fly upward slowly.
She wiggled her forelegs feeling awkward by being picked up this way.
(( Sorry doing homework. ))
Moonlight chuckled a bit at how she was wiggling. What are you doing?
((no problemo))
"This is awkward," she muttered looking up at him.
No it's not. he said as he reached the top and put her down.
"I'm glad you are having fun," she rolled her eyes but smirked once all four hooves were on the ground.
I always have fun when you're around. he said smiling.
"Oh? My little tormentor?" she smirked as she questioned him.
At your service he said bowing with a smile.
Rigor smiled and nuzzled under his chin for a moment, "Alright, I think I got most of what I need to be done."
Alrightey then he smiled
((any pony free))
(Dark star, I am) River Song exited the music shoppe. Business was slow, so she got bored and when her shift ended, she left. She stretched her wings out. She couldn't wait to get home. She had to practice her violin! She quickened her pace to a nice trot.
Vana walks into the town square [glow=red,2,300]I wonder what to do next?[/glow]
A flash of orange shoots down from the clouds, plumy feathers billowing from the Pegasus's wingspan. The glass on the bespectacled pony's glasses reflect the sun above as she drops down into Ponyville town square.
Citrine Skies, or just casually "Citrine", plants her hooves down on the cobblestone, sighing and tucking in her wings. She gives a brief overview of her surroundings and spots River Song exiting her shop. Smiling lightly and blinking her scarlet eyes nonchalantly, she trotted over to the other Pegasus and nodded in a silent greeting.
"Heya River. How's business lately?"
J walks around the town square having nothing to do
(( *improvises* :P ))
"Yeah well, I'm sure things'll do better tomorrow; catch you later!" And as the other pony fluttered off skyward, Citrine Skies followed her with her eyes for an instant before turning back towards the square. Now, another pony came to her attention:
"Hey, J!"
She raised her wings and lifted her chin as she greeted the unicorn from across the fountain.
um do I know you the Shnigami unicorn asks
(( Oh, ignore the last post them if you want them to remain strangers lol ))
((Yeah J doesn't tend to go outside of the Undertaker's parlor so he doesn't know to many ponies ^-^ ))
(( haha okay then, sorry X3 ))
Citrine nodded after giving herself a brief look-over, and turned around to hop off of the fountain foundation. But as she jumped, she collided with another pony's side. Staggering back, she looked at the surprise pony bewildered.
"Oh..Sorry!" >.<
((It's okay))
J was knocked down from the blow he stands up It's fine it doesn't cause any pain to me he says
Cardfight Heart walks The Town Square Vanguard said he'd be here in Ponyville I wonder where he could be.
