"I knew it. It was all a ploy to get the kiss I denied you." Behind that playful answer, lay an undercurrent of uncertainty. Icy bit her lower lips for a moment, before getting up to a sitting position. She hesitantly touched her lips to his, seemingly unsure whether to continue or not.

Winterflap nodded. "Bye."
She then sighed. Now she was left alone with the two crazy ponies and the other one who had thrown things at her. This might be troublesome.
"That's a good idea." Winterflap flew over to the door to Sandy's house, then gently tapped it with a stick.When in doubt, use cute little dragons.

Cadmium stayed behind for a moment as she up with her cloud above the bonfire and let out a small torrent to put it out. She then zipped on over to join the others in this whatever with Sandy.

(Don't know when this happens in relation to Heartflight leaving, but whatever.)
Sandy froze for what must've been the fifth time today. Jeez, nopony ever comes to house, then today of all days he gets half the town to visit? His poor nerves couldn't take much more. If Heartflight were still here, he'd motion for her to be quiet, and then silently creep towards the front door, waiting for some sort of confirmation of who it was.I'm developing a game.

Re: [My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic] Bridle Shores, General Town thread 7
Huh, that voice sounded familiar. Definitely not Gwyn, that's for sure. Maybe he could just get to the window and peek-
"Yes! I am here!" Sandy glared down at his treacherous mouth. Stupid questions...stupid magic making me answer questions... He shook a little of the excess sand from his mane and opened the door.
The stallion was showing the signs of his long, harrowing day. Cadmium, Top Hat, and Silk Scarf would especially notice, seeing how they'd met with him just that morning. His mane was a mess and, despite his best efforts, still had quite a bit of sand in it. The bags under his eyes were puffy from stress and worry. His hooves and ears gave errant twitches, and he looked about a few loosened screws away from falling apart completely. His eyes darted to the small posse of ponies gathered on his front doorstep, before finally resting on the little filly in front of him. "Yes....er, Winterflap, is it? There somethin' I can help you...uh, all of you, I suppose, with?"Last edited by TheAmishPirate; 2012-07-08 at 10:03 PM.

Sandy took the odd stack of papers and started leafing through them. "Huh, I didn't know you were a mail..." His eyes narrowed and his hooves started twitching and shaking.
"I have been getting rest sufficient to function, and no more than an hour more." The sandy stallion shook himself from tail to snout and jabbed a hoof at the papers. "Augh, nevermind that, where'd you get these?!" he demanded of the little filly.Last edited by TheAmishPirate; 2012-07-08 at 10:56 PM.

Re: [My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic] Bridle Shores, General Town thread 7
(I'll have Garion respond in a bit, apologies)
Sandy stepped back, Cadmium's poke feeling more like a slap in the face. He wanted to keep going, keep yelling out his problems until he felt better, but all he could see was the face of the frightened filly. And then their words clicked. Delivered...supposed t'be for my house...Miss Gwyn gave them back after all...after she could've gotten off scott-free. After I tried t'tempt her to...to...
The full gravity of what he'd done today fell on his shoulders all at once. Ears, wings, tail, everything about him started to sag as his spark of shock and anger blew out completely. He looked from one pony, to another, to another, before finally settling on Winterflap. "S-sorry...thanks for...for bringing these..." he mumbled weakly. The sandy pegasus started slowly backing back into his house. "I...uh, I should...I need to...I should get...I should get goin'."
His hoof snaked back in a search for the door handle, reaching farther and farther, almost grasping it, just a little farther-"No. Not everything is alright." Sandy froze, slowly glanced down at his treacherous mouth, slowly glanced up at the four ponies on his doorstep, and heaved a deep, groaning sigh.

"Eep!" Winterflap eeped. The hug caught her off guard, and since she was already frightened, she squirmed a bit before collecting herself.
"You're... You're right. I wasn't doing anything wrong. I was just trying to be helpful. Thanks." She smiled once at the three other ponies standing up for her, then gave Sandy a cold look.
Her glare softened. "What's the problem? What's been going on with you?"When in doubt, use cute little dragons.

Re: [My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic] Bridle Shores, General Town thread 7
Sandy bit down on his quivering lip. Sure, he sorta knew Top Hat and Silk Scarf, and Winterflap had been nice to him before, but did he really have to air his dirty laundry to a (relatively) complete stranger? That little debate ended when a familiar tingling started to build in his throat. The little stallion threw up his hooves in defeat. "Argh, the magic's just gonna make me talk anyhow, I don't even know why I bother tryin'."
"No, nothin's okay. Not anymore. I mean...I mean just look at me!" He stood up, flaring his wings to their full length. "I came t'this town a unicorn, now I don't even got magic anymore. Just these...these stupid wings!" His voice started to choke up with weeks of pent-up emotions. "Ponies said they could learn from this, maybe help learn how t'grow back limbs an' such, but I-I haven't been able t'work with sand for weeks now. That's my special talent! Sand, th' beach, I can't even do that anymore!"
"An' then there's Simmer!" He shouted at nopony in particular. "I was supposed t'protect the town from things like him, but what did I do? Got laid up in bed like a sick foal while other ponies went an' got themselves hurt fightin' that thing. While other ponies did my job. An' they went an' did it better'n I ever could! Hay, that one pony? She went an' beat him without breakin' a sweat! Job deservin' of a medal, meetin' the princess, anythin' she could ever want! So what did I do?!" He smacked the papers. The others may have been long lost, but there was no way he could stop now. "I went an' tried t'rob her of all that credit she rightly deserved just 'cause I was a little envious. An' I tempted another pony t'help, when they were feelin' low enough as it was. An' if that weren't enough, I nearly bite th' messenger when I'm found out! Some great protector I turned out t'be!"
Finally out of breath, the stallion let his head hit the still-open door with a light 'thud'. "And t'top it all off, nopony even comes t'my cruddy statue store until I'm fallin' apart at th' daggum seams." he said with a mirthless chuckle. "I just don't know when I became so...so daggum useless."

Calling wings stupid Sandy in front of three pegasi? Tsk
Cadmium just listened to this rant with confused wide eyes and stood there awkwardly. She leaned back to Top Hat and Silk Scarf and whispered. 'Geeze, what went on in this town?' She then looked back at Sandy. 'I...don't know what's going on but uh I'm sorry for your troubles?"

Re: [My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic] Bridle Shores, General Town thread 7
"Crazy magic stuff."
"Town's full of it,"
They whispered to Cadmium.
Actually, Silk Scarf didn't seem to take offense at the wing thing.
"That's not true at all!"
"You're not useless! No one's useless!"
The two of them detached from Winterflap and went into very enthusiastic gesticulations to accompany their speeches.
"A pony’s value isn’t in what he’s able to do physically – everything can be improved on, after all! There are ways that wings can handle sand that magic can’t…But Silk Scarf’s wings or my magic would both be useless, because it’s your heart that loves the beach! Yes, it’s that that gives you value!”
”It’s that that gives you value! The stuff that’s around you, even your body, don’t matter in the face of that heart!”
Their sincerity could be seen from space as they leaned forward to look Sandy dead in the eyes.
"We believe in you!"
"We believe!"
They pointed at him, while they were at it.Last edited by Deme; 2012-07-09 at 11:03 AM.

Winterflap took a deep breath.
"...I know how that feels. Most years, I used to deal with this for nine months. Nine whole months, just waiting for the snows to come. I need ice to work, and all through spring, summer and autumn, there isn't any. Most seasons, I feel helpless.
"But there's not just one way. You can work around your obstacles, like I do, or you can find something else to do. Look for other things that you like to do. There are good things to be found! You can fly now, and countless other unicorns never get a chance!
"And you are not alone. There are other ponies who have to deal with this kind of thing. Some ponies need to adapt their talent due to changing circumstances..."
~
((Helpful repost))
The little unicorn suddenly felt like she was being watched.
~
"And then there are the ponies who have their talents that work, but haven't perfected using them, and just need to practice applying them properly..."
~
Flower Tail twitched her ears and wasn't sure why.
~
"And this can work out! There are ponies who have learned to work outside their talent, adapting their old skills to new purposes! There are ponies who have succeeded!"
~
Sweetheart sneezed again.
~
"These cutaways are sure getting distracting... So, anyway, don't feel bad! Find your own way! You're only as useless as you let yourself be!" Winterflap hopped in place a bit. "So what do you think of that?"When in doubt, use cute little dragons.

Sandy looked up in confusion at the ponies on his doorstep, just hurling advice and encouragement at a sad sack of pony like himself. Why were they even bothering? Why were they just ignoring all the awful things he did?
Why were they trying to help?
That familiar throat tingling snapped him out of further self-pity. He sniffed once and wiped at his eyes. "I...I don't really know what t'think of all that." he spoke honestly, for once. "I guess flyin's nice an' all, an' sure there are ponies what can adapt themselves, but...but I just tried t'make a sandcastle an' it looked like a sandpile. An' just look at th' beach!" He motioned to the less than picturesque shoreline. "My other job's a right mess, sand's all I got left now. How can I go an' adapt somethin' like that," he pointed a hoof towards the beach, "with somethin' like these?" He flared his wings again, kicking up a light puff of air that managed to toss some of the errant sand out of his mane.I'm developing a game. Let's see what happens! Complex.

"Well, we don't know anything about sand, so we can't tell you."
"But we can tell you what you have to work with!"
Top Hat took a polite step back and let his other half handle this one. Silk Scarf reared up to pound her chest with her hoof, and spread her wings.
"You have, as always, a beach fulla sand! And you've got all your know-how of its properties... But you've got some new tools. Your wings are feather-brushes, and wind-sweepers that can call forth anything from a breeze to a tornado! Your hooves can gather clouds for ease of getting water, and controlling its application."

"Exactly, like you may not be able to create lovely technical based classical art paintings like a DaManechi anymore, but you can now at least make the beautiful and passionate abstract expressionism, putting beauty into each seemingly stroke. Different techniques, different levels of skill, but you can still create art," She nodded, rather proud of her metafor-something. She gave Sandy an apologetic smile and tilted her head.
