[MLP FIM] Bridle Shores Dream World/Time Bubbles 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…

]I got invited to some joined dream. So I accepted, seeing as how curious I am about this. Said Rodny while coming next to their table.

Reginald the bartender throws some unopened bottles of Root Beer towards Silverpine and Gearstride.

Not any that I know of at least.
"Very tiny thing? Jormong, that isn't very reassuring. I can't be involved with something if it'll bring trouble to Equestria, so if you want my help on this, you should probably elaborate a bit more."

Re: [MLP FIM] Bridal Shores Dream World Thread
Well the higher ups have been experimenting with a few things one of which has been travelling between the dream world and your "real" world. I am personally hoping that they don't think on using these prototypes.
-
Re: [MLP FIM] Bridal Shores Dream World Thread
"I see. So the little thing is a part of the problem, not how you're fixing it."
He closed his eyes and thought long and hard. If Jormong was telling the truth, then Equestria could be in serious trouble. He would be duty-bound to help him get this revolution of his off the ground.
On the other hoof, if he was lying? Well, he had explicitly told him the arrangements of the shared dream. Nightmares were liars by nature, but they had to tell the truth when it came to their contracts. Plus, if Jormong tried to cross him...well, Sandy still had a few tricks up his sleeve. He should be able to fight off a Nightmare or two.
He nodded resolutely. "Alright. I'll come with you. I still don't know if you're telling me the truth, but there isn't much harm in coming with you for now."

Re: [MLP FIM] Bridal Shores Dream World Thread
Wonderful! Jormong suddenly stood up on his back hooves and clapped his front ones. When by the time he had fallen down, half a dozen of his Nightmare subordinates had appeared out of nothingness. I like this pony so I want you all to escort him to the Jeeves dream. One of the Nightmares got a bit close and they whispered something. He then turned back to Sandy. We might meet at the dream later... Sandy.
-
Re: [MLP FIM] Bridal Shores Dream World Thread
Sandy had to confess later that the Nightmare had talked him into dropping his guard. If he had been ready, he would have been on his hooves and kicking everypony out of his mind before Jormong could have gotten a word in. He only managed to scramble upright before Jormong gave the order. Once he saw that these were his escorts and not his attackers, he relaxed...marginally. One or two Nightmares? No problem. A dozen or more jumping out of nowhere? Problem.
Celestia above I hope I'm not making a mistake here...
He let the Nightmares escort him out, pausing to say to Jormong, "Yeah, I suppose so. If your Moro friend knows so much, you might want to bring him along too."
-
Re: [MLP FIM] Bridal Shores Dream World Thread
I wouldn't wish that If I were you... He takes care of the... unstable... And after all that time of doing that he himself is a bit insane. Why do you think he has memorised every thing? Said Jormong smiling.
-
Re: [MLP FIM] Bridal Shores Dream World Thread
"Well at least give him a shout before you talk to me again. If you are on the up-and-up, I figure it'd help to know who you're talking to." He goes with the Nightmares.
-
Re: [MLP FIM] Bridal Shores Dream World Thread
Jormong exited the now crumbling dark room and wondered about Sandy... He knew that he wouldn't remember him tomorrow but He was still interested in the pony and the fact that he knew and hated Nightmares. He waved his hoof as if you clear the thoughts and wondered in to another dream.
-
Re: [MLP FIM] Bridal Shores Dream World Thread
(If it's alright, I'm just going to assume that I make it to the dream)
Sandy entered the tavern. He looked around, examining the patrons and the surroundings carefully. He didn't recognize everypony, but he did notice the two ponies from earlier in the evening. They were talking with a third pony that he couldn't quite place. Probably somepony from around town.
More importantly, he noticed a lack of Nightmares. Or, more accurately, a lack of Nightmares jumping him as soon as he entered the room. So far, so good. He hoped Jormong hadn't been lying to him. He really hoped Jormong hadn't been lying to him. He didn't know if he could take another assignment. Not now.
He sat down cautiously next to the others, not sure what would happen, and also not sure if any of the ponies here were actually real. Dreams and all that.

Re: [MLP FIM] Bridal Shores Dream World Thread
(That is exactly what you should do ^^)
Rodny examined the new pony. He studied most of it's features so he makes sure he remembers it. Then he said. Good evening mister...?
-
Re: [MLP FIM] Bridal Shores Dream World Thread
"Sandy Shore. I take it you got brought here too?" Sandy keeps looking around nervously.
@Rodny
Spoiler
Show
Rodny can't remember ever meeting this pony, but he distinctly remembers seeing him in Canterlot while on guard duty.
-
Re: [MLP FIM] Bridal Shores Dream World Thread
Hmm... Have we met somewhere before? Asked Rodny and looked closer.

(Was waiting for Benson to reply. Oh well.)
"At least you got invited. I was literally dragged here by this mare." Silverpine gestured at Gearstride.

Gearstride waved at Reginald despite not knowing who is ...only that he looked like that Berathor fella a little. She then turned to Silverpine and shrugged in respond to his comment.
"WELL...obviously they're a couple...and had an angsty backstory to go with it," Gear casually commented. "As for toilet habits?....Can us ponies...even make the manure?"

Re: [MLP FIM] Bridal Shores Dream World Thread
I know as much as you do. By the way. He turned around at the barkeeper and yelled. Can I have your strongest alcoholic beverage please?

"Clearly. Angsty backstory are in vogue this season huh?" Silverpine deadpanned. "Also really Gear, you're questioning our own toilet habits now?"

"Ish, no need to yell," Silverpine said, sipping the root beer the barkeep somehow passed him instead.

Gearstride glances down at her cartoon anatomy pony body. "Yea...I am questioning...ahaha...err. Or maybe its because I'm in a dream.....oh phooey...confusion..setting in."

In which Gear steals a small sip.

Re: [MLP FIM] Bridal Shores Dream World Thread
Oh... Well... Ignore that last part then. He then turned around and leaned towards Silverpine, whispering so that only he can hear. If I am not mistaken things are working out?

"Gear, you know you can get your own cup right?" Silverpine said in mock exasperation, before his stern expression melted into a grin. In truth, he was finding her foalish antic rather amusing.

"Oh! I'm sorry. Next time an immaterial thought pony waltzes into my head and offers to take me to somepony else's dream, I'll be sure to knock first and ask if I should come back another time." His voice drips with sarcasm, though there is a tinge of actual grumpiness there.

Reginald the bartender then throws a Root Beer at Rodny. He then takes down the giant sword from its mantle and started to polish it.
-
Re: [MLP FIM] Bridal Shores Dream World Thread
Rodny looked at the bartender, polishing his sword, even tho he had no hands to do it with... The obvious intimidation attempt failed seeing as Rodny was leading the Royal Guards. He ignored the root bear which fell and broke.
No, no, no, no... I have seen you some where in... Centerlot? Rodny said to the newcomer pony. He then whispered back at Silverpine. Hey, that means she likes you enough to bother napping you.

"Why does everypony get asked permission first except me?" Silverpine muttered, a little annoyed.

"Hey, I already know she likes me. Whether she likes me enough to have a long term relationship, that's another matter." Silverpine replied, in a low voice.

The bartender throws another Root Beer at Rodny, it bounces off the back of his head harmlessly and falls to the floor and breaks. His hands are no longer polishing a sword, he now had a minigun that fired Root Beers and he aimed it at Rodny.
"Take a Root Beer, or get painfully knocked out cold."

"I'm sorry sweetstuff...that would be my fault...I wanted to have this weird dream adventure with somepony and I picked you," She went over behind him and hugged him from behind laying her head against the back of his neck. "So if you want to have somepony to be annoyed at, it should be me."
