[MLP:FiM] Bridles Shores Library/Downtown thread.
Far to the west of Canterlot, further still even from Ponyville, a quiet little town is quickly springing up near a large lake.
This is Bridle Shores, situated along a large lake with a natural beach. Not far from town is Mt. Trotia, with a waterfall that feeds into the lake. The town is surrounded by a lush forest which the ponies of the town both use and nurture with delicate balance.
A small business district has started to grow, with a bakery, Dress shop, Grill, Greenhouse, Dojo, Saw mill, snow cone stand, dance academy, and even a soda bar popping up for the citizens of the town.They are also experimenting with new technology such as Floppy Disk’s computer shack or the Doctor's friendship harnessing lab. In addition, there's a farm and a wizard's tower on the outskirts of the town.
Much of the forest is quiet and peaceful, but deeper within the forest lurks creatures far more dangerous…

Soft Serve's Soda Bar: Soft's Bar is her dream business. The bar exclusively serves soft drinks and has almost any drink you can think of. If she doesn't have it, she'll find a way to make it.
Mount Trotia: Mount Trotia is the mountain range near Bridle Shores. Ponies rarely go there and as a consequence, not much is known about them.
Public Library: The Dragon's library, a place that has been fixed up by Smoothie, is also currently being run by her. You can often find her at the front desk. It's suspected that she's cast about a dozen different spells to modify the place to her liking at this point.
Nightclub: Description to come once it actually opens.
School: It's a school.:smalltongue:

She said, a weak smile on her face. The words sort of failed her.
"I don't think this town'll be what it was. You'll take a bit of the world with you."
"I'll do my best to come back, I promise." Soft says, hugging Foxglove a little tighter.

At Foxglove's comments, Snickers grins. "This town will never be what it was, thanks to her. Do you remember the pie? And the all the zany things that happened when people drank Soft Serves? We had a blizzard, for Luna's sake!" he says with a playful grin.
"Yeah. I've always said that my alignment is "Chaotic Fun." Soft says with a grin. "Maybe you guys could try to hang out with Smoothie sometime. I doubt her having more friends would be a bad thing after all." Soft says to both of them.

Foxglove said, a little smile at the reminiscence of all these crazy antics. Of course, that raised several interesting thoughts at once, and one of them worked their way front.
"...I never had a Soft Serve, you know that?"
"...We could fix that if you want." Soft says. She never passes up a chance to give her friend/s her favorite drink.
-
Re: [MLP:FiM] Bridles Shores Library/Downtown thread.
"...Well..."
What was the harm?
...
Even Foxglove knew that was a dangerous thing to ask.
"Ok."
-
Re: [MLP:FiM] Bridles Shores Library/Downtown thread.
Snickers blinks a few times. He has no idea how to feel about this. It may prove amusing, or it may prove catastrophic. Whatever the outcome, it promises to be... interesting.
-
Re: [MLP:FiM] Bridles Shores Library/Downtown thread.
Soft decided that it was indeed time to fix that. She went into the back as usual, there was the traditional "BOOOM" and she came back out with the strange drink, no worse for the wear. "Here you go." she says cheerfully as she handed over the drink, which had a straw in it too.
-
Re: [MLP:FiM] Bridles Shores Library/Downtown thread.
Foxglove took a sip. Her mane came untied.
At this point, the first flowers started blooming. She kept drinking. More flowers. And there seemed to be the sounds of a few pets outside. And birds. And maybe an insect or two entering the bar, little butterflies dancing around the circle of violets and wildflowers.
And then she drank more, and it became clear that the woods and surrounding areas were starting to empty out and clamor around the bar, which was now a fragrant meadow of foxgloves. The mob scratched at the door.
"...Like infinity."
She muttered, tasting the words sparking on her tongue.
-
Re: [MLP:FiM] Bridles Shores Library/Downtown thread.
Snickers stares at a luna moth as it flutters past him. "But those are nocturnal..." he quietly mutters to himself.
-
Re: [MLP:FiM] Bridles Shores Library/Downtown thread.
"Ponies can do things that would normally be impossible under the influence of that drink...Which can mean rather bad things if given to the right pony at the wrong time." Soft says, remembering the panic when her sister turned the Moon blue the one time.
-
Re: [MLP:FiM] Bridles Shores Library/Downtown thread.
Foxglove looked like she was in some sort of fugue state as she walked to the door and opened it, letting the animals in. There were creatures of all shapes and sizes, from a bear that had to squeeze through the door to tiny mice, and also including several less savory creatures like snakes and frogs. They all came into the room, climbing onto every available surface, and clustering around her like they were worshipping a goddess.
A goddess who commented, after staring very carefully at a foxglove plant and petting her pet Foxglove fondly, commented,
"...I don't see what the big fuss about it is about."
-
Re: [MLP:FiM] Bridles Shores Library/Downtown thread.
Snickers slowly looks up at the goose perched on top of his head. "So, uh, how long do these effects usually last, exactly?" he quietly asks Soft Serve. The way the goose was staring down at him was making him nervous.
-

"Usually only a couple minutes. Can be up to several days, but I doubt it will be in this case." Soft says to him.
-
Re: [MLP:FiM] Bridles Shores Library/Downtown thread.
The goose honked. Foxglove happily drifted along greeting and petting everyone, including several puzzled-looking snakes.
"It looks like everyone else came to wish you goodbye, too."
Foxglove the fox looked at Soft Serve in a way that made evident that this was strictly untrue. Foxglove the pony shook the glass of Soft Serve.
"I wonder if they'd like some..."
Given that these were wild animals held together purely by the aura de Foxglove^10th, this probably is unwise.
-
Re: [MLP:FiM] Bridles Shores Library/Downtown thread.
The group of ponies, and a dragon, arrived at the library.

"Probably not a good idea. I don't know what my drink does to animals." Soft says, knowing Foxglove wouldn't want to hurt her animal friends, and she genuinely didn't know what it would do to animals.

Re: [MLP:FiM] Bridles Shores Library/Downtown thread.
Snicks nods thoughtfully. "Yeah, better safe than sorry."
A hummingbird zips up, and lands on his nose. "Cute."

Re: [MLP:FiM] Bridles Shores Library/Downtown thread.
The Library
Scene Change
And before them was the library, north on the outskirts of town. Its bigger on the inside than the outside.
"Oooh..." Cadmium noised as she and the group made their way to the library. It was kinda plainish on the outside, but twas the inside that matter more. But it, on the outside looked like a regular building, nothing that unique looking on the outside, so I recall from past descriptions of it.

"Oh, alright."
She finished the drink, humming as she went. It was a hum with power -- it took you gently by the hand and brought you *home*.
...It also brought home the kraken, which lifted the bar off its foundation and looked down inside. It had taken it a while to get out of the lake and come here to see this.
"Hallo, sleeper of the deeps."
Foxglove said, her voice cool and unsurprised. It was possible this was making her loopier.
-
Re: [MLP:FiM] Bridles Shores Library/Downtown thread.
Snickers channels his inner Liam Neeson and bellows "RELEASE THE KRAKEN!!"
Snickers lets out a small yelp, and promptly latches on to Foxglove, hugging her tightly out of complete and utter terror. "Foxglove why is there a Kraken."

Foxglove being loopier? NOT POSSIBLE.
Soft had decided to try and reach the highest ground possible to avoid the Kraken.
Unfortunately, she had chosen the top of Snickers head as her "Safe" spot.

Sunny held the door to the library open for everypony.

Re: [MLP:FiM] Bridles Shores Library/Downtown thread.
Flare nodded to Sunny, then gingerly entered through the opened door, looking about as he did so.
-
Re: [MLP:FiM] Bridles Shores Library/Downtown thread.
Smoothie waves to the group, and points to the sign that says "Library. Keep your voice down, or the bat will eat you."
Umbra was flying around, eating random bugs that popped in every so often.
-
Re: [MLP:FiM] Bridles Shores Library/Downtown thread.
[Voile The Magic Library]
Flower Tail nodded to Smoothie. "You lot can look around a bit," she whispered. "I'm going to find some spellbooks."
-
Re: [MLP:FiM] Bridles Shores Library/Downtown thread.
"Hauh...this is nice," Cadmium softly commented as she walked inside. Much bigger on the inside than the outside, yep.
-
Re: [MLP:FiM] Bridles Shores Library/Downtown thread.
Flare turned to Smoothie.
"Um...ma'am, would you be the one called Smoothie?"
-

"Yes, I would be her indeed. Is there some particular reason you would be seeking me out?" she asks, keeping her voice quiet.
Umbra, meanwhile, decides the dragon's head is a good place to land.
Sunny decides that, after she holds the door for everypony to go in, she should glomp Smoothie.
"Sunny, what have I said about hugs?"
"Don't be silly. Everypony needs hugs."
Smoothie sighs. "Fine."

Flare gave the bad a glance, smiling for a moment before responding.
"I...I'd like to know if...there is room here for a dragon to live...a dragon seeking tutulage in the magical arts...one that can't harness his own magic very well except in fire."

Smoothie sighed. Her life was becoming significantly more complex than she desired. "We can talk about it after the library closes. I'm not making any promises right now." she already had to hang out with her friends, create a body and transfer Shale's soul, Gain phenomenal cosmic power, hang out more often with her dad, deal with her sister moving away, attend to her own studies, and find out more about the pony who created Shale. Having what amounted to a roommate, especially one she couldn't begin to afford to give anything more than a bedroom, was not the best idea.

Re: [MLP:FiM] Bridles Shores Library/Downtown thread.
"If...if it's money you are worried about, I can bring in my own share with my smithing arts. That's one good thing about my fire. It lets me mold metals."
Hmm. Clairvoyancy? Naw. Just his writer being convenient. :smallwink:.

"Well, that certainly helps, but it's not Just that. We can talk about this a bit more after the library officially closes. Right now, ponies are keeping me busy."
As if to confirm Smoothie's comment, a random pony pops up and asks her for a book.
"I'm sorry, but do you have the Twilight series by chance?"
"Second Floor, Shelf in the far back. Only have one copy of each, but I don't recall anypony checking them out, so you'll probably find all four."
"Thanks. Uh, would you suggest any particular books by chance?"
"I've heard good things about the Dresden files, which are over on that shelf over there." she says, pointing to the first visible shelf on the right. "We only have the first four."
"Alright, thanks." the pony says, and goes on her merry way to find books.
-
Re: [MLP:FiM] Bridles Shores Library/Downtown thread.
Flare nodded to Smoothie and searched for a place to wait, looking about him at the library and all the books it contained. Noticing one about dragons, he picked it up and opened it gently, making certain his claws did no damage to the book. He made something of a silly sight, as the cover had a much nastier looking dragon on it breathing orange flames over a forest, and here was a dragon reading it and treating it gently.

The Kraken looked puzzled and extended a tentacle into the building. Foxglove, a faint song radiating off her body almost, started climbing up it...
Dragging the wobbling tower of nervous ponies with her.
"...So close to the ceiling..."
She commented, looking up at the sky. She turned to her stacked and clinging companions.
"It's not a real ceiling, but at this height...I feel like it could be. The top half of the world's shell."

Re: [MLP:FiM] Bridles Shores Library/Downtown thread.
"The offer to go flying is still on the table," Snickers squeaks, hanging on to her for dear life, while trying to maintain his balance with Soft teetering atop his scalp. "I can take you up there at some point. Maybe even see if we can find somepony to cast the Cloud Walker spell on you, to let non-pegasi walk on the clouds. Or something. I'm sure somepony can do that."
He looks up at Soft. "Can Smoothie do that? Also can you teleport? I don't think I can carry both of you if we fall..."

"I'm pretty sure she can. And yes, I can teleport." Soft responds to Snickers. "Really, I'd be surprised if she didn't know a spell as common as that. She knows really obscure stuff." Soft says.

Re: [MLP:FiM] Bridles Shores Library/Downtown thread.
Library-Edge of Town
Cadmium was there, doing something. Frankly I have nothing for her. She's in a lounge I guess, flipping through a magazine.
-
Re: [MLP:FiM] Bridles Shores Library/Downtown thread.
"Mmm...If the clouds walked on me..."
She muttered. Then a very sad and lonely look crossed her face, causing the kraken to shift a tentacle to see her closer. She stared off the edge despondantly.
"...The worst thing about everything changing is it all stays the same."
She pronounced.
-
Re: [MLP:FiM] Bridles Shores Library/Downtown thread.
Snickers ponders the meaning of her words. "Well... You'd still be a unicorn, and the cloud walking would only be temporary, yes. But..."
He looks up at Soft. "Hypothetically, could Smoothie enchant a necklace or something with the cloud-walking spell? Or teach just it to Foxglove?"
Poor Snickers, missing the point as usual. But at least his heart is in the right place.
-
Re: [MLP:FiM] Bridles Shores Library/Downtown thread.
"Hypothetically, yes she could. Whether she would do the necklace or not depends on her mood at the time." Soft tells them.
-
Re: [MLP:FiM] Bridles Shores Library/Downtown thread.
Snickers grins. "Does she like cookies?"

-
Re: [MLP:FiM] Bridles Shores Library/Downtown thread.
"Muffins? Apple Turnovers? Blueberry scones? Dark baking sorcery? Banana nut bread?" Snickers asks, genuinely unsure of which of those things Smoothie might like. He knows next to nothing about her.

"Maybe to the second and first, definitely not to the last three. The only thing I know for sure she likes at all times is deep fried mushroom." Soft says.
-
Re: [MLP:FiM] Bridles Shores Library/Downtown thread.
She shook her head and smiled, sadly.
"...Put us down, Mister Kraken....You can go."
The animals seemed to retreat at once, and she watched them quietly.
"...Thank you, but it's OK, Snickers..."
She said. She looked at Soft a long time and, as the flowers began to fade, nodded quietly, as if to herself.
"...It'll just...Have to be."
-
Re: [MLP:FiM] Bridles Shores Library/Downtown thread.
For a moment, Snickers doesn't say anything. Finally, the pegasus lets out a small whisper. "That was a Kraken."
Snickers hasn't let go of Foxglove yet, since they just got back down to safety. But when he listens to her words and sees the way she's looking at Soft, he smiles sadly and tightens his grip around Foxglove, giving the unicorn a comforting hug.
While still hugging Foxglove, he looks over (or up, if she hasn't scampered down yet) to Soft. "Say... if you don't mind my asking, how far can you teleport?" he quietly asks.
-

"From about here to Ponyville. Why?" Soft asks.
-
Re: [MLP:FiM] Bridles Shores Library/Downtown thread.
Snickers gives a small shrug of his wings. "Just trying to think of ways you could easily visit. But teleporting that far would probably leave you pretty worn out..." he mutters.
-
Re: [MLP:FiM] Bridles Shores Library/Downtown thread.
Flare continued to read the book, sometimes putting a claw over his muzzle as if something about the book was funny.
[not sure what to post really yet unless somepony wants to interact with the dragon]

"Something wrong?" Smoothie asked, finding the dragon's expressions peculiar at best.

The author was one "I.K. Diddly", and the date was faded, but some of the references were without a doubt from before the migration to Equestria.

She commented. She seemed to give it some thought... And proposed:
"Carrier Pigeons. We're working on sending messages to the moon...So they're really strong."
-
Re: [MLP:FiM] Bridles Shores Library/Downtown thread.
Snickers grins. "Those must be some pretty impressive pigeons." He then slowly extricates himself from around Foxglove, a faint blush rising to his cheeks.
-
Re: [MLP:FiM] Bridles Shores Library/Downtown thread.
"Every day in every way, they are getting stronger and stronger...They'll need to be very strong, to reach the moon....And have sweaters."
She looked up at the ceiling.
"...It'd be cold. She is like a mare rising from the grave...She is like a dead mare. One might fancy she is looking for dead things."

Smoothie took a look at the book itself, and read through a bit.
After reading through the book, she appears to have come to a decision on its validity.
She promptly incinerated it, leaving nothing but ash in its place within seconds.
"Thought we'd purged the inaccurate books from the shelves already. *Mumblegrumble*"

"Why can't I get fire spells like that to work?" muttered Flower Tail. "Not really fair, is it." She immediately started looking for any books on the nature of fire magical theory, hoping to find something enlightening.

"I think you've been reading the wrong Mare in the Moon legends, Foxglove," Snickers says with a playful smile. He then raises an eyebrow. "Or maybe I've been reading the wrong ones..."
-
Re: [MLP:FiM] Bridles Shores Library/Downtown thread.
"I'm not talking about the mare in the moon....Just...The moon...The moon like a corpse. The moon like a dancer with little silver hooves. That moon."
She said, her expression pulling away. Perhaps, in that moment, she looked mysterious and distant as the moon.
"...A little higher all the time."

Re: [MLP:FiM] Bridles Shores Library/Downtown thread.
"That sounds like some sort of horror story my sister Smoothie would read. Or tell during a sleepover. Or something like that." Soft comments, removing herself from Snicker's head.

Re: [MLP:FiM] Bridles Shores Library/Downtown thread.
Fox Trot
After asserting control over his cheeks, the young stallion watched the faint image of the kracken 'walking away', leaving town. A part of him was surprised to just see ponies milling about and going about their everyday lives. Perhaps that one time seeing that massacre wurm acting like a little baby dulled their expectations about such monstrous creatures?
Yea, that had to be case, why else wasn't there panic in the streets? He sucked his some air and puffed out his chest, breathing in courage as he thought it as. He then started to walk, in the direction of Soft's bar, trying to practice what he was going to say, only to fumble his words and trip over his tongue. Curses.
Eventually the mocha stallion made his way to the soda bar and peered through the window, he put on his bestest grin and opened the door and walked inside. He shyly waved seeing Foxglove and Snickers were here too.
"H-hey, hiya, ya'll."
-
Re: [MLP:FiM] Bridles Shores Library/Downtown thread.
"Hi Foxtrot." Soft says, and then GAAAASPS. "What in the world could that be?" she asks, pointing somewhere behind Foxtrot.
