"Thinking about all this timey wimey stuff hurts my brain. I'm not even sure what we're supposed to do now about this." Gearstride said after allowing her brain to absorb everything.

Re: Adventures in Equestria IC.
Well, the dragon knows what to do about this. Get away from the crazy ponies. No mare is that good-looking.
The dragon turns back into dragon form and flies away like a bat out of hell.
"A few different ponies. Why?" She asked, tilting her head.
"Some are. Others are notoriously UNhelpful, or only do things on a 'Need to know basis' which gets tiring quick. I've encountered one or two. Say what you will, and it will be totally valid, but at least demons are straightforward."
With a groan of exasperation, the griffin turns his attention back towards Silent Night with slumped shoulders and a deadpan expression. He's clearly growing tired of this. "Does the name Thorngrave have any meaning to you?" he flatly asks. "'Anacra' told us that's what you'd started calling yourself, due to something called Cutie Mark Insanity Syndrome, or whatever. She said it's... the same thing... Luna......."
Godwyn's posture goes rigid. "Wait, if that was Anacra from 2,500 years ago... then she knew Luna would eventually become Nightmare Moon... 1000 years later..." the Paladin observes, a look of deep contemplation on his feathery face. "Which... means she could see the future. Which means she... wasn't sending us to find you THEN..." he muses, swinging his talons to the left, "But rather, she was sending us to find you NOW..." he states, swinging his talons back to the right. "So she knowingly sent us into the future. I think. To stop you. Or to stop herself. Or both."
Godwyn blinks a few times, before closing his eyes lightly bonking his fist against his forehead a few times. "Time travels hurts my brain..."
"He looks in dire need of some puppies." Silent Night says.Last edited by Mystic Muse; 2012-12-20 at 04:46 AM.

Re: Adventures in Equestria IC.
"What were we even expected to do really? It obviously wasn't really just the simple task of slide horn ring unto horn.
"I need a drink, a nice stiff one to relax my mind, and a nice mare or stallion." She glanced as the dragon flew out of dodge, she wasn't going to chase after them, though she was going to miss the idea of two pairs of lips from a double headed pony ravishing her with kisses. Ah well. She did her distracting task of not having the big dragon start fighting with them and make for combat ensuing.SpoilerPony Rp-Fox Trot Profile

Re: Adventures in Equestria IC.
"...Shhh."
She said to Silent Night, in a low voice.
"You'll spoil the surprise. Come on, everypony. And Godwyn. Let's go somewhere less confusing."

Re: Adventures in Equestria IC.
Godwyn sighs, and begins to flap his wings and lightly hover, allowing Foxglove to "push" and "steer" him towards the exit. "A trip to the nearest tavern doesn't sound like that bad of an idea..." the Paladin mutters weakly, before looking over at Silent Night. "Would you like us to return later for further discussion and perhaps sense-making? Or would you like to join us for a drink?" he politely asks, giving the necromancer a weak smile. Always polite, even when overwhelmed...

"It's been a long time since I've had one. After this day, I could use something strong. I'd be willing to accompany you, if you aren't one of those Paladins who is completely unwilling to ever associate with a necromancer because it's "Evil" she says, clearly having heard that a lot. "No more evil than creating golems, or chucking fireballs at ponies...Less so than the latter even..." she says.

Re: Adventures in Equestria IC.
As Godwyn is pushed towards the exit, Godwyn looks over his shoulder at Silent Night, and gives her a meek smile. "Oh no, no such trouble from be. Besides, you are not Evil. Far from it. The aura of the soul reflects what lies within the heart..." he cryptically muses while being carted off.

"Wait, so we're going for drinks?"
Foxglove blinked as she pushed Godwyn along.

"I think that a life of drink is the best life. It tends to involve scoring many kisses for me and any life where I can score kisses is the best life," She grinned, very well knowing she didn't make that much sense.

Re: Adventures in Equestria IC.
Godwyn cranes his neck to give Gear a dubious look. "On second thought, maybe a drink isn't such a good idea," he deadpans. "For me, at least."

"...But she's not even coming to the bar, on account of not-existing, but not being as upfront about it as me..."
Foxglove mused as they left the cave. She hopped back up on Tweedle's back, where she curled up a bit.LPs:

"I still have no idea who this Aurora person is." Silent Night says to the party with the paladin who invited her for a drink. Naturally, she leaves her undead friends in the cave so as not to freak the mundanes.

"She would be the mage to have had time traveled us to the past...." Gear furrowed her brow, that was awfully sneaky mcsneakerson.
She then grinned at the griffon. "Don't be such a lamer, unless you don't think yer up for handling a few hard ciders, heh." She teased.SpoilerPony Rp-Fox Trot Profile

Re: Adventures in Equestria IC.
Godwyn shakes his head at Foxglove. "Once again Miss Foxglove, I assure you that you do, in fact, exist."
He looks back over at Silent Night, and frowns slightly. "Aurora is the impish angel who saw fit to hurl us back and forth through time and drag us into that mess," he explains.
Finally, the griffin hops up and begins to hover. He twists his body around, so that he spins to face Gearstride. "Furthermore, I am quite certain that I can handle my hard cider," he states factually, perhaps even a bit boastfully.Anemoia: Nostalgia for a time you've never known.

"...Through time?...That can be done?...Oh, THAT Aurora." She has kind of an unpleasant look on her face after putting 2 and 2 together. "...Odd. That seems far more helpful than she usually is."

Re: Adventures in Equestria IC.
"I still don't see evidence that we were moved through time -- after all, we'd have noticed something when we left 'baack then'. I think time was moved around us...Or both of us, Anacra's group and us, were in our correct times, and they were sort of...meeting."
Foxglove was unsatisfied by this whole timetravel business; after all, they walked out, without noticing any unusual changes in the enviroment, or to the structure they had left, in spite of the fact that one or both of those things being very likely -- almost certain -- to have occured if they were literally walking from the past to the present.
"...I'll...stick to juice."

Re: Adventures in Equestria IC.
Godwyn quirks a weary eyebrow. "Oh, you know her? Why do I find myself surprised?"
"...Let's not test that. We don't need anypony, or griffin, getting drunk. How about we make sure to be nice, moderate drinkers with BIG glasses of water in-between each of our drinks, and eating plenty of bread before-hoof, huh?" she asks, clearly not expecting anybody in the group to go for that idea, but it's worth a shot.
Godwyn shrugs. "I am not certain who was where or when. I suppose only Aurora knows, and I doubt she'll be giving us that information any time soon, if ever. Oh well. What's done is done, regardless of when it actually got done."Anemoia: Nostalgia for a time you've never known.

"Does she even know where she's going?" Gearstride pointed out as Heartflight decided to take off. Ya know, taking into consideration on how they were teleported into the...something....so the town may not even be in this time. Actually, **** it, trying to think of the holes here did no one no good.

Re: Adventures in Equestria IC.
Well, luckily, Trottingham isn't exactly small, so it's not easy to miss. While not nearly as big as say, Manehatten, it's a pretty nicely sized place in its own right. It's a mostly modern looking place, with several buildings constructed out of stone rather than the usual wood. These are apparently places of business for the likes of fashion designers, and similar big businesses, judging by the rather apparent signs.
Other than the buildings, most places are made out of wood, with the occasional brick and mortar house or place of business. There's just about every type of business you would expect here, including a jeweler, a blacksmith, a bar, a furniture store, a pet shop, a grocery shop, a clothier, a fortune teller, a library, a bookstore, a gaming shop, and a bakery.
There are few ponies roaming the street at this point, mostly a few foals, and one or two pan-handlers. The foals appear to be in one of two little groups.
One group of four foals is playing a game not unlike "Ring around the Rosy". The foals are clearly young, as they don't have their cutie marks yet. They are each a dark color with a light mane of a similar color (Purple, Blue, Red, and green), and then there are three that are discussing something going missing. It doesn't appear to be anything overly urgent, and really seems to be more a source of annoyance than anything. Something about dolls. One of the foals in this group has her cutie mark, a cone with three scoops of ice cream on it (Strawberry, Vanilla, and chocolate), and she's a white pony with a dark brown mane, and small pink spots all over her hair and body. One is a bright red pegasus colt who is lamenting his Daring-Do action figure with kung-fu action having gone missing. The last is a very young filly who can't even pronounce her 'r's correctly yet, who is a bright bubblegum pink, and is sad about the loss of her dolly.
One of the Panhandlers is playing an acoustic guitar, though, not very well, hasn't shaved in a while, and looks like he could use a bath. HE looks to be about middle-aged, and is going bald. His mane is black, and his coat is a dark brown. His cutie mark is not visible.
The other doesn't appear to be much of a beggar, she's more of a street-performer, performing small magic tricks, such as pulling a rabbit out of a hat, or the "Is this your card"? trick. The mare has a cutie mark of four aces in front of a magician's top-hat, and has a white body with a pink mane. Both her body and mane look like somebody threw sprinkles all over her, and she just let them stay in.
The roads in town are pretty standard dirt roads, that look well taken care of. Every once-in-a-while you notice a guardpony or police-pony walking along. Each one will politely wave to any ponies in the party as they walk by.
The bar
A fair number of ponies of various ages have congregated at the bar. Quite oddly, the mare who was just serving drinks in the little nowhere town is serving drinks here as well. Well, maybe she just has a twin sister.
The bar is much more upscale than the one in the middle of nowhere town, with very nice checkered tile floor, comfy benches around tables, some booths, and some very nice barstools, along with a bar that looks like you could drop any amount of dirt on it, and the sheer cleanliness and shininess would just assimilate the dirt into more cleanliness and shininess. For those who want a refill on the more traditional sodas, there's a soda fountain right near the entrance.
The back of the bar is loaded with pictures of old singers, most of whom are pretty recognizable, and a few ponies who very much aren't recognizable. Probably personal idols of the owner, or family.Last edited by Mystic Muse; 2012-12-27 at 05:24 AM.

Re: Adventures in Equestria IC.
The Bar
Godwyn stands near the doorway, grinning as he looks around the bar. "Woooow. I like this place." He looks to Foxglove and smiles. "When you find a seat, could you save me a spot please? I have something I need to go take care of. It shouldn't take long."
He nods politely to the rest of the group, and Silent Night. "I shall return in a moment."
And with that...
The Streets
Godwyn strides back outside, and begins to casually stride down the sidewalk back towards the beggars.
To the magician, he gives 10 gold coins. "Perhaps you should look into entertaining in clubs or restaurants. Dinner and a show? Or maybe take your show on the road? Get more exposure, earn new fans, discover new tricks," he suggests with a pleasant smile. "Have a pleasant day, ma'am."
To the guitar-playing beggar, he offers 15 gold bits. "Here you go, sir," he says with a sympathetic smile. "Might I suggest the harmonica? Easier to play with hooves than a guitar, and you'd get more attention with a less common instrument. Have a good day, my friend."
The Paladin turns to head back to the bar... but pauses when he passes by the foals and their plight of the missing doll. As much as he hates to keep his companions waiting...
Godwyn saunters over to the kids. "What seems to be the problem?" he asks, tilting his head slightly in curiosity.Anemoia: Nostalgia for a time you've never known.

Re: Adventures in Equestria IC.
Foxglove looks uneasier at this bar than she did at the last one. Still, she had work to do. Godwyn was having a bad day...
And you know what fixed that? Puppies.
Once she was in the bar, she began to hum a little melody, and then began to pick up pace with it. And add words.
"Here, puppies. Come here. Who's a good doggy," she sang. And through the door...Arrived puppies. Or, at least, the idea of puppies, solid enough to be interchangable with real puppies. little writhing masses of puppies, wagging their little tails.
(Use a use of bardic performance to summon (1d3)[2] swarms of puppies.)
Foxglove dropped down on her knees to play with them and get licked, all while keeping up her flow of song-like praise.LPs:

The bar
Gearstride smiled at the puppies. Puppies were cute, twas fact. But more importantly, the bartender. Wait what? On that note, she did quite like the atmosphere of this bar, rather old school and classy.
She approached the bartender and flashed her a smile. "Hey cutie, mind hooking me up with a hard cider?" She asked flirtatiously whilst getting out a few Bits.SpoilerPony Rp-Fox Trot Profile

Heartflight also decided to play with the puppies (after waiting for the rest of the group to arrive), while keeping an ear on the karaoke bar. It was always good for a few laughs. Usually.

Re: Adventures in Equestria IC.
The singer is an earth pony, singing a song that has a bit of a bedtime story quality to it.
"Within the Vale of Forgotten Kings, beyond the Warrior's Gate, deep below the
Spire of Woe, the Treasure of the Four Crowns lies in wait. But verily few hath seen this prize, and none hath lived to tell. For death beware all those who dare to break the immortal dark one's spell.
The Lord of Shadows hath decreed that none shall claim this prize, lest first the sigil of the Four Crowns be gleaned by mortal eyes. Beyond the blackest barrier, concealed. Behind his throne, the sigil holds the Cryptic Key etched in darkest stone.
The sovereigns of the ancient realms buried their secrets deep. A lost legacy of immortality lies hidden within the caverns of Flametongue's keep. But verily few hath seen this prize and none hath lived to tell.
or death awaits beyond ancient gates, and only the blood of the dragon can break the spell.""Sure! Hard cider or Apple Pie Moonshine? the bartender asks.
she seems quite surprised by the amount. She looks at it a few times to make sure she isn't hallucinating. ...Thank you sir. I will certainly take it under consideration. she says
To the guitar-playing beggar, he offers 15 gold bits. "Here you go, sir," he says with a sympathetic smile. "Might I suggest the harmonica? Easier to play with hooves than a guitar, and you'd get more attention with a less common instrument. Have a good day, my friend."

At the wave of foals, Foxglove edges about nervously; she keeps up her humming, but retreats to where she can watch puppies/watch for Godwyn behind a booth or something, where it's safe from all the people.

"Good."
"Ummm....sir, you do realize these are gold pieces' right?" The beggar asks, clearly not believing the amount
The foals are about to respond, but then, puppies. They ignore the paladin for the moment and go over to pet the puppies instead.
Having been foiled in his third good deed of the afternoon, Godwyn shrugs and returns to the bar. He walks inside... and is presumably swarmed by juvenile canines. The horror!Anemoia: Nostalgia for a time you've never known.
