[My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic] Bridle Shores, General Town thread 7

[PurityIcekiller]

"She's a foal, name's Hover Heart. She helped spring me from the clinic. And then she wanted to go into town with Simmer about, just to get her doll." He shook his head; were even the foals in this town crazy? "Told her I'd go and fetch it. She's probably still back at the Civic Center."

The four ponies headed off towards the Civic Center. Thankfully, since they were coming from Hover's house, they'd likely be able to spot the foal if she left the evacuation site to head home.

"Some ponies are willing to go to really great lengths just for a doll," remarked Night Jewel. "Either she's incredibly fond of it or the doll is secretly an artefact of great power. We should probably do a little magical analysis on it before giving it back." She was mostly joking.

[Sandy - His Best Impression of a Wet Blanket Yet]

Sandy glanced at the lump where his horn used to be and gave a little sigh. "Well, we'd need to find another unicorn for that, seein' how I've still got wings." He took the doll out and placed it on his back, examining it as they walked. "Seems just like a patched-up doll t'me."

"If they only knew. MWAHAHAHAHA! Hmmm.. Cookiethulu is sending me a psychic message. Loading. Loading? What the heck is that?!!"

She paused in mid step having felt a shiver up her spine. She glanced around. "Do ya ever get the feelin' yer being watched?" She forced a chuckle to calm her nerves. Her eyes lingering for a second on the doll that was to be given to Hover. Naaah

"Actually..nevermind, forget I said anything."

[Grif]

It seemed to be a small magazine clipping with a small image of Fox and small column of text. It was dated around less than two years ago.

Watch out fillies and gentlecolts,
time to put on your shades for
another star is on the rise from
the stage. A Manehatten local,
the buck has been grabbing the
attention of many prolific dance
companies. His name is Fox Trot
and he has got the moves to
bring sexy back, and yes ladies,
he is single. Currently the young
buck is enrolled in the Capriole
Prance dance company. He has
already taken the leading stallion
roles in two different back to back
productions on the coveted Broad-
mare stage. This is one to look
out for, let's hope luck is with him
and his star remains shining brightly.

Icy tilted her head sideways as she read the clipping, before looking back at the kitchen where Fox Trot disappeared into. "Giving up all that... for Bridle Shores, huh?" Icy pondered.

"Actually..nevermind, forget I said anything."

Sliverpine was mercifully oblivious to all these. "You guys are being too nervous about the dolls," he said without turning to look.

Icy tilted her head sideways as she read the clipping, before looking back at the kitchen where Fox Trot disappeared into. "Giving up all that... for Bridle Shores, huh?" Icy pondered.

Moments later Fox Trot returned into the living room. "The water should get to a boil in about six minutes." He then noticed the clipping she was magically floating. "Oh." Was all that escaped his mouth.

Icy's ears drooped slightly, suddenly feeling like she pried into Fox's private life. She quickly refolded the paper and handed it back to Fox. "Forgive me for my curiosity. I will not pry further."

"Its alright, you already know most of the story anyway," He lopsidedly smiled grabbing the clipping with his teeth and placed it on his shelves near his records, books, and record player.

"Anyways, sandwiches, how would you like yours?" He asked.

"Anyways, sandwiches, how would you like yours?" He asked.

"I'm thinking... a lot of greens. Maybe lettuce. Feeling green and all," Icy said after a moment.

[Benson]

"I'm thinking... a lot of greens. Maybe lettuce. Feeling green and all," Icy said after a moment.

"Alright,' Fox went over and gave Icy a smooch on the cheek. "Fox Trot's special green and green deluxe, coming right up." With that he walked back into the kitchen to make them their sandwiches.

Icy trotted in after him, holding a small smile on her face. Somehow she found those little quips of his endearing. She would help him make the tea, if only to make herself useful. And she did have an eye for tea.

Fox Trot spent his time as he made them their sandwiches just trying to clear his mind. Seeing her with the clipping provoked memories at that moment and he didn't want to think about them, not around her. He wanted to enjoy his time with her. So more filing was done as he pushed back those thoughts, stuffing them away into the crevices in his mind.

Instead he focused on Icy, he watched her when his eyes allowed for a sneaking peek. So beautiful and smart and was willing to look past his...well ya'll know the backstory boohoo fest he thrust upon her and related incidents.

"You're amazing, you know that Miss Icy," He smiled softly and then quickly fumbled to not let the knife he was using to cut up lettuce fall. "Waah..thwats smarths...haha hehe..err."

Icy let out a sound that suspiciously sounded like a giggle. Not all befitting the normally dignified mare. "Fox, you sound like a foal swooning on his crush," she said, pouring the hot water in the teapot she prepared already.

[TheAmishPirate]

Sliverpine was mercifully oblivious to all these. "You guys are being too nervous about the dolls," he said without turning to look.

"I'm not bein' nervous, I'm bein' careful. It looks like it's just a doll anyhow." Sandy retorted. He placed Mr. Stitches back into his pack, and kept scanning for that little foal. Where in Equestria did she run off to?

He put down the knife on the cutting board as not to accidentally drop it as he spoke. "Well, you are swoonable....I think I'm using that non-word correctly. Swoon worthy, more than swoon worthy. I know you didn't want cheese with your lunch, but apparently you will be getting it by the bucketloads."

"Maybe she still didn't leave the Civic Center?" Gear offered.

[TheAmishPirate]

"Maybe she still didn't leave the Civic Center?" Gear offered.

The approached the Civic Center with nary a sign of little Hover. Sandy scratched his head. "She was workin' at the clinic, makes sense they'd still be on-duty. Wouldn't hurt to check." If there were no objections, Sandy would start climbing the cloud staircase up to the Civic Center.

(I thought we'd already reached there, but apparently not! Awaaaaaaaaay!)

[Orzel]

A dark cloud casts over a meager broomcloset.

[PurityIcekiller]

[Gearstride, Sandy, Night Jewel, Sliverpine... You Know The Drill]

"I'm not being nervous or careful. I'm not even that serious about it. As for the foal..." Night Jewel looked around...

A dark cloud casts over a meager broomcloset.

...and spotted the cloud. "Hmm. Maybe that means something. After all, the room I searched was quite dark." Night Jewel curiously decided to check it out.

[Benson]

Gearstride

"That's most definitely not a clue," She smirked and cantered over. She had the courtesy to knock on the broom closet door.

[Orzel]

???

"Are you an dreaded abomination?" says the sweet sounding voice within. "If so make it quick." says a similar sounding but more depressing voice.

[Benson]

"Are you Hover? We got your doll, well Sandy has it, but yea," Gear said from behind the door.

[TheAmishPirate]

???

"Are you an dreaded abomination?" says the sweet sounding voice within. "If so make it quick." says a similar sounding but more depressing voice.

Sandy trotted over to others by the door, taking Mr. Stitches out of his pack. "Hover Heart? It's me, Sandy Shores. The pony you helped break-uh, 'met' in the clinic. We found Mr. Stitches. He's right out here."

[PurityIcekiller]

"Are you an dreaded abomination?" says the sweet sounding voice within. "If so make it quick." says a similar sounding but more depressing voice.

"No, I'm just a 'rat'. I'm typically considered above such things as dreaded abominations and false-hearted lovers." Night Jewel smiled and approached.

[Deme]

Spark Chaser

"So what do ya want to do now?" Spark asked the other foal as he rubbed the back of his neck.

"...Got me there. I guess maybe we should see what the plan is about this whole post-fight post-evacuation stuff."

Pyrite shrugged.

[Orzel]

"Are you Hover? We got your doll, well Sandy has it, but yea," Gear said from behind the door.

Sandy trotted over to others by the door, taking Mr. Stitches out of his pack. "Hover Heart? It's me, Sandy Shores. The pony you helped break-uh, 'met' in the clinic. We found Mr. Stitches. He's right out here."

"No, I'm just a 'rat'. I'm typically considered above such things as dreaded abominations and false-hearted lovers." Night Jewel smiled and approached.

"Which does Stitches look like. A filly or a colt?" said the talking closet.

A glance at the doll would show that there is a ragged sewing line across the abdomen. It displays obviously that the lower half has been removed many times. The neck and mane contains similar loose stitching. The other patches on the other hoof were very tight and solid.

Sliverpine studied the doll closely. "Uh... I actually have no idea."

[Benson]

(Ya fergat the Icy/Fox stuff, I think you are indeed losing your touch )

"I'm thinkin' its an androgynous plushie," She commented looking at the doll. She tried opening the door to see if it was locked or not.

Spark Chaser

"Yea, also, I think our parents might start to wonder where we are at since we're not in the commons room," Spark said with a forced chuckle.

[Grif]

He put down the knife on the cutting board as not to accidentally drop it as he spoke. "Well, you are swoonable....I think I'm using that non-word correctly. Swoon worthy, more than swoon worthy. I know you didn't want cheese with your lunch, but apparently you will be getting it by the bucketloads."

(I blame IRC for taking my attention away. Hopefully I'll get better.)

"Metaphorical cheese are indeed the best cheese one could have," Icy replied, deadpan. She carefully shook the teapot, before taking out the teabag. Mustn't let it get too dark after all. She levitated the teapot, along with two cups and sugar and milk and placed it carefully on the table.

He watched her for a moment, smiling at the smooth and ease she made the tea, not wasting a single action. He almost forgot about finishing up the sandwiches. Almost.

As she placed the items on the table he managed to finish the sandwiches and placed them on plates, having a prehensile pony tail made it easier for the earth pony. Yay for canon.

"Here you go my dear," He put hers at where she was going to sit, while he took the opposite side. "I still will one day make you some of my grandma's cheese enchiladas, soon."

"I guess that's true. So, dad, are you going out with the one pony now?" Smoothie asks. Sunny Wonder's mom that is. I can't remember her name at 3 AM.
