Apollo drove down the main road and parked her car in a side street. She opened the door and got out, then checked her phone. She flipped the screen up; no messages. Oh well, they'd probably send it soon, even if by scroll. Now that would be eccentric, she chuckled. Charming, even.

 

As she padded down the road her tail swished behind her. Her claws scratched on the concrete pavement.. It was weird. Back at home, the pavements were made of red brick. Sure, a minor detail, but it was still odd. She looked back up and scanned the shops on the side of the street she was on. Bookshop, clothes shop, jeweller... Nothing that really jumped out at her. No cafés, but the next one appeared to be. She opened the door of the café and a bell jingled.

 

Immediately, she was hit by the scent of roasting coffee beans. It was pungent, but boy was it good. Scampering to the counter, she demanded their darkest blend and when gifted with it, passed the appropriate number of bits over the counter. She held the porcelain plate in triumph, her beverage and a complimentary amaretti macaroon sat atop the little platter that was also decorated with a small spoon and optional sugarlumps. With disgust, she threw the sugarlumps into the contained they had come from. May glucose never blemish her coffee for it is an unforgivable sin.

 

---

 

After around a half-hour, Apollo finished her coffee. Satisfied, she gave the café's barista a hefty tip and left the building.

Rosemary looks at the picture not moving from her spot she remains rested on the bed as she starts to smile at the thought that maybe she can make friends. Rosemary soon remembers where she came from the sudden flood of images in her head blocks out the new one like a tidal wave she shuts her eyes tightly trying to ignore the memories tears begin to roll down her face but she remains silent as she opens her eyes and curls up in a little ball. I can't escape... why can't I just escape them!? She remains on the bed to scared to move.   

Night notices Rosemary's strange behavior, and starts to worry Did I do something wrong?  "Excuse me miss"  he starts "is something wrong?   I can move my picture if you'd like.  I just... like remembering that day..."  Night buried his own face into his pillow, remember how depressed he was when Nightingale move and his hope to find her someday

Outside of his dorm, Autumn decided to take a stroll around a fountain he had seen to the side of the campus; his legs were still kinda still from the trip and it would feel good to stretch them before dinner

"Oh sorry, im from canterlot, and im not really that uh, smart.." He chuckled a bit, exiting his car and closing the door behind him, he then put the keys in his pocket, and as he entered the tavern, he quickly whipped up his iPhone and smiled slightly, grabbing the small piece of paper that the griffin had given him. "So, hey Will, should i text that griffin? I want to see how quickly she can sober up"

He remarked slightly, sitting on a chair next to the bar's windows.

Rosemary looks up at Night "Oh... n-no its not you're fault... I-its just that... I..." Rosemary hides her face again only leaving her eye shown and focused on Night "I'm n-not like others... I... I've had a terrible past and..." She sighs wiping away some of her tears but the soon come back. "I... I just h-had... some flashbacks... I-I'll be fine... I think..." Rosemary squeezes her eyes shut not wanting to embarrass her self in front of her new room mate.

 

((Also as a side note I just wanted to say she has a British accent... cause I forgot to in my app...))

"I dunno what I'm good at" Chris shrugged, hopping up and observing the bow "You seem to have your life all figured out. You're probably a really good archer I bet, but me? I was just always the popular kid, and that was because all my brothers were popular, and maybe a little of my attitude, I don't know" He looked back at his cutie mark with a smirk "Though when I was a colt, you named any beat, I could identify it with ease, as I have gotten older, I have figured out I am really good at making friends. I have a shit ton, most of the school knows me... Well, with a little help with my brothers of course. If you ever need anything, you can always talk to me. Chances are, I know someone that could help you, Shouldn't my cutie mark be a happy face or something?" Chris chuckled to himself, as he gave his mane a quick brush, winked at himself in the mirror, and picked up his wallet and car keys off the desk. He slid both items into his jacket

"Tons" Chris answered "This class seems to have a lot of attractive ones. I'm sure you'll have no problems finding a cute filly, but be careful who you pick. Sometimes a filly can take away the freedom you're supposed to have here in college. A lot of stallions, as far as I know, go to college to get away from living the partnered life"

Didn't happen in high school, just dated a few stuck up bitches. So, I really want it to happen here. D'you think that's a bad goal to have?" He asked

"It not bad at all" Chris remarked "I'm just saying the girls can really stop you from having freedom. You need to be with them, talk to them, and take them on dates. Sure that's sweet and all, but college is the last 4 years of being young and free! When you aren't studying, and for Celestia's sake please do that, you have to celebrate it!"

Chris looked at a picture on his desk. At this point, he was just wondering around the room. He observed a picture of a mare, one with a brown mane, white coat, and eyes that looked fairly odd. If you observed the picture closer, these were the eyes of a blind filly about the same age as them. Something else that was noticeable was how pretty she was, despite her condition. This was Chris' old girlfriend, that he had gotten very luckily with his low confidence with girlfriends. Sadly, she had broken up with him after her parents forbid them dating. She moved away and he never saw her again.

After a short hesitation while looking at the picture, Chris looked back up at Spark "But don't let me stop you! One good thing is that girls are usually a lot more laid back after high school. This is a pretty class too. I don't know what kind of guy you are, but if you want a girl, man, go for it!"

((Sorry for making my first post so late. I wasn't feeling terribly inspired to do anything.))

 

The Friendship Express train pulls into the Vanhoover station. A loud sigh from the engine and a call from the conductor prompts everypony to exit the train. Edward stands up and grabs his luggage from the rack, then shoves his way into the line to get off the train.

 

Finally off the passenger car, Edward exits the station and looks around the city. It wasn't hard to spot the place he was going, as it was at the end of the road he was standing on. After a short walk and bumping into quite a few ponies, Edward arrived at the college.

 

Edward was familiar with the campus. He had visited many times and had always wanted to come to this prestigious school. Edward made his way to his assigned dorm and knocked on the door. After waiting a few seconds and not receiving an answer, Edward unlocked the door himself. "Might as well hang here for a bit." He set his stuff down next to the bed that was still made and laid down.

Spark noticed Chris's picture when he walked in the room but thought nothing of it at the time, but when Chris stared at it for a few seconds, Spark noticed something that changed in Chris's overall attitude, even if it was just for a split second.  He would not talk to him about this now though.

 

"You're right I guess.  I doubt any mare here would go for me anyway, heh.  Those girls I dated in high school only wanted to date me because I was kind of a jock...  Even though I don't consider myself one.  They also just dated me TO BE DATING someone.  It was terrible back in my old school." Spark chuckled a bit.  "So, since we're going to be roommates, want to go out and do something?  Maybe go for a drink, or something?"

As she ambled down the street, Apollo's phone buzzed in her bag. She took it out and checked her messages. Something from a new number... They'd texted her! She read it. Jason's Pub, what a name indeed. Luckily, she had seen a place of that name on her way up and knew it wasn't far, so she flew. Spreading her wings, she gave a powerful flap and lifted off of the ground into the air. With slow pacing, she made her way to the pub.

After walking around a bit and only seeing a few ponies passing by, Autumn decided he would drop by dorm 3 and see Night. He causally shuffled to his friends room and knocked lightly.

Hearing a knock at the door, Night put down his game and looked through the peephole. Seeing that it was Autumn, he opened the door and stepped outside. "Hey, how are you doing"'

"Pretty good, it's just kinda dead round here; wanna do something?"

"Sure, you have anything in mind?"

"Not really, thought we could drive up and down main street and see whats around"

"Sounds good to me... Do you mind if we ask my roommate to come along, I think she's feeling a little down"

"That's cool with me"

With that, Night stepped back inside. "Rosemary..." he started "my friend wants to go out and find something to do, would you like to come along?"

"A bar would be good" Chris smiled "Do you have a car? Sometimes we all forget about the huge city that is right outside our gate. Maybe not today, but I'd love to take a day trip up there. As of now, maybe we should drive to the pub, it is usually active on the first day, according to my brothers"

 

Chris went towards the door, opening in, and on the way he gave Spark a nudge "You know, we may even meet a mare or two there"

Clover wearily rubbed her eyes as she shut off her laptop. She'd had enough game time for today. The mare stretched and yawned quietly. Guess I better explore the campus- her stomache grumbled. and maybe there's a pub where I can find something to eat!

She put on a flannel button-up shirt and shoved her phone in the shirt pocket. "Wait I need my key and some freaking bits if I'm gonna eat." Clover grabbed the items and merrily made her way out of the dorm.

Sleepy arrived at her new college in a cab, which was filled to the brim with luggage. As it rolled to a stop, the driver looked back, "Ya sure you don't need any help unloading all that?", he said as he took off his cap to wipe the sweat from his brow. She smiled as she grabbed the first bag and hefted it onto her back, "Oh, no thank you! You must be so tired from pulling that carriage all day. I couldn't ask you to do that," she beamed as she pulled more luggage off. She finished unloading and paid the driver, waving as he took off.

 

When the road was clear, she opened her foldable wagon and loaded her bags onto it before she set off, looking for her dorm. She took a look at the campus map and walked on the farthest edge of the sidewalk, trying not to block anypony's way. Consequentially, she tripped over the edge and quickly clambered to her hooves, flushed with the idea that somepony might have seen that. She grabbed the foldable wagon and quickly got it upright again, piling her bags and the books that fell out of them back into the cart.

Apollo reached the place. "Jason's Pub." She read out loud, looking at the sign. It was inevitable, she'd be spending many nights in here getting hammered. It would be best she didn't, but this was college. Whether it was with those two other guys (who she never got the names of, weirdly) or whoever else she happened to meet, she'd be spending a long time in this place.

 

The griffin pushed open the door and looked around inside. She saw the lads from before instantly and padded over to them. "Hey, am I late to the party?"

"Jason's Pub? Sounds great, let's get a move on" Chris smiled and headed out the door of their dorm. He walked down their hall, stepping over suitcases and boxes of all the busy new students moving in. Ponies were shaking hooves, bringing heavy boxes up the main staircase, unpacking, or those who were already there, sat back and watched it all happen. It was truly nice to see so many new faces, in Chris' eyes anyway. He had a lot on his mind, and for some reason his old girlfriend was one of those things that floated about his thoughts. Coconut, a rather name, but to her home country, Japony, it was rather normal.

 

Chris had so much on his mind, that he totally forgot they were taking Spark's car. He was at his motorcycle, about to hop on, until he looked back at Spark "Oh shit" He chuckled and hopped off "Forgot we're taking your car. Mustang huh? I mean, my Ducati is cool and all, but it will only ride me. Where is it?"

Rhythm Beats stepped out of her small blue car and took a deep breath. She was glad to be here, very glad. She couldn't wait to get started! She went to the back of her car and opened the boot. Inside was some suitcases, a small rectangular case and a saddlebag. She put the saddlebag in her bag and hoisted the other bits of luggage out of the boot. She shut it and locked the car. She put the keys in her saddlebag and started walking. She noticed a mare picking up some things. She walked over to say hello, and hopefully make a new friend.
"Hi! Do you need any help?"

Converse quickly throws the garage roller-door down, hiding the evidence of her precious motorbike and other contents. The owner, her eldest brother, knew the consiquences of telling her father (he'd be in trouble too). She got the family-concerned discount. Her brother owned a few garages, and was nearly head of his business already. "Clockwork cars" she read off a sign hanging off the building.
Converse whistles unsuscpiciously, and hails a cab. She loads on her few bags (she liked to stay over at her brother's house to escape home life. Already had a wardrobe there.) into the taxi, and off they went. After arriving at the university like she was first supposed to (in a cab, that sort), she unloads the taxi and pays the driver. "Thanks. I'll take it from here." She gives a top-student smile to him, and lugs her baggage along with her. Her hooves leave the ground with some struggle as she tries to fly most of the way, and nearly flops onto the ground, before bouncing buck up again painfully. She reaches the student services, 'signs in' to make sure her dad would come after her, and strains herself back to her dorm building and into her room. She sighs in relief, throwing her bags onto the ground and flopping onto the bed. She would be catching a class tomorow or later, so she had to pick up her A-game before then.

Hunt and peck the queen bee out of order.

She gets up again, and runs back to the student services to look at a directory of the surrounding area, and smiles evilly.
The one place they COULD go would be the pub... And it seems those frats will be their home domain.
Don't tell me... I'm gonna become queen of the commoners!
She runs off in the direction of the nearest pub, desperate for that not to be true.
If it was a guy, maybe she could sweet talk her way in. If it was a girl... Manipulate and backstab.

After a while of running, she comes to the entrance of the pub, wiping off a bead or sweat.
"Jason's pub. I could get used to this."

She had left a note in her room for ((sleepy that's you)) saying she was sorry for any inconvenience, but she was currently out, and that she could choose whatever bed she liked. Of course, converse had laid down on a bare mattress.

She walks in, seeing a griffon walk past and yelling at two others, and watches the group from afar in a safer part of the room, ordering a beer.

Spoiler

 

Did he just glare at me?! I'm not even looking that way, and he already seems to hate me. No one can hate me yet. I might need them. 3rd wheels and all that.

Converse looks back at the wall at the back of the bar. She only glanced at the group, and turned away. Wasn't looking suspicious or anything.

She sighs and rolls her eyes, trying to push back her thick pinkish-yellow hair.

No pain, no gain. This damn hair only looks good, not feels good.

 

She looks over her hooves as if she were to look over a manicure, waiting for something to happen so she could know their game.

Rosemary nods not saying anything as she steps out of the room, She watches the other pony and stays a bit closer to Night but kept enough distance to avoid freaking him or her self out. Once they arrived at the parking lot Rosemary began to wonder if any of the ponies that made fun of her would just happen to be there. As soon as she realized what she was thinking she pushed that thought to the back of her head and focused on attempting to make new friends.

"I guess I can't lie and say she is my sister or something..." Chris sighed, looking away "She was my ex. All that talk about mares made me kinda think about her... Kinda miss her too"

He sighed again, knowing Spark would ask that. Chris didn't want to talk about it, but he didn't want his friend to think he didn't trust him. He was usually open about all things, but Chris was sensitive about his mare "Her name was Coconut... She was blind, but she was so beautiful, though she never knew it. She was so kind too. All she did was please me, and damn was she cute. Her family was another story. We were a perfect couple, and I have trouble getting in relationships, so it was really special to me"

Chris thought about it, he was a pretty handsome and cool guy, so it was hard to believe. Another thing he thought he should tell Spark was his problem "I have a lot of fillyfriends" he shook his head "No, that sounded wrong. I have a lot of FRIENDS that are FILLIES, but when it comes to getting in a relationship, all the confidence I have around everypony vanishes. But Coconut was different. She didn't judge me, and it wasn't only because she couldn't see me. If she did, she still wouldn't see me as a guy who smoked like a chimney, cursed like a sailor, and dressed like a thug from the 50's. Her parents though, saw me exactly as I look... Like a douchebag. Kinda like how you did when I was smoking in the dorm. Long story short, they made us break up because of Coconut's 'education', which I didn't believe at the time. We didn't see each other anymore, and a few months later, she moved back to her home country, Japony. Ironically she moved for her education at a college. After that... I never saw her again"

Chris seemed to be under a cloud of depression "I really loved her"

Sleepy nodded, "Yeah, I was looking for D4," she said as she put the final bags in the cart. She beamed at Rhythm, "Thanks for the help, what dorm are you staying in?" She spread and refolded her wings to try to straighten her ruffled feathers before putting the harness for the cart back on.

"D3 for me. I'd love to know who I'm sharing with." Rhythm picked up her own bags, tightening the saddlebag on her back so it wouldn't fall off.
"I guess we should start looking for where we get more information then?"

Spark felt a small lump rise in his throat after Chris finished his story. "Wow..." That was all he could really say at the moment, after a minute or two passed, he glanced over at Chris. "You know what... If I get accepted into the royal guard, I want to help you find that girl. You two are obviously meant to be together. I'm positive of that." He said. He pulled into the small parking lot of the pub and got out, eager to get some alcohol into his system

Rhythm Beats trotted after her.
"Cool! That means we're not too far away."
She looked at the map of the school.
"Wow, I'm going to get lost pretty quick!"
Her small, black case slipped out of her saddlebag when Rhythm trotted to catch up.
"One sec!" She called as she ran back and collected it. The case had opened and it's contents had fallen out. There were two drumsticks with her name printed on each one in a swirly font.
"They're a gift from my parents for when I left home to come here. They're kinda special."
She picked them up and put them in the case. She fastened it and placed it back in her saddlebag.

Sleepy started unpacking and noticed the note on the bottom bunk. "Looks like I'll just have to meet up with her later," she said to no one in particular as she shelved her textbooks. After she had finished setting up her room, she flitted to the top bunk and laid on her back, taking her hair out of a ponytail and closing her eyes to take a short nap.

Rhythm Beats carefully opened the small black case that held her special drumsticks. Holding one in each hoof, she started drumming the beat from 'Find the music in you' from the Ponytones on the end of her bed. She had been practising and it sounded pretty good! Then she practised some complicated parts that she hadn't quite got the hang of yet. She was so lost in the drumming that she didn't know if it was disturbing anypony or not.

Autumn just nodded with a smile.

"Well, I guess we should head inside" Night said.  "See what strikes our fancy..."

In the first room behind the door were 3 cabinets: a tetris game, a pacpony clone and a multipayer simpsons game.  Autumn trotted over to the multiplayer cabinet, "Let's check this out, and then grab something to eat"

 

((BTW-- What time is it?  I'm assuming mid-to-late afternoon?))

Rosemary follows the two inside and watches Autumn walk over to the one game she follows him over a bit confused as to what she was suppose to do "I... I've never done this before..." She blushes a bit and smiles sheepishly. She resorts to just simply watch the machines in a bit of confusion.

Sleepy jolted awake and took out her dream journal. She wrote quickly but the memory faded before she got very far and she frowned at the paper, drawing a line across the page to box it in before putting it away and getting down onto the floor. She pulled her hairbrush out of her bag and headed into the bathroom, pulling her hair up into a ponytail. She washed her face with cold water to wake herself up and picked up her map of the campus. She packed her saddlebag with a towel and a bottle of water and set out to the college's lake.

Rhythm eventually stopped drumming and carefully placed the drumsticks back in their case. She got up, collected her now empty saddlebag and walked out of the room, closing the door behind her. She had tried to memorise Sleepy's map but it was faint to her now. She trotted around and found the University Library. She went inside and looked at all of the books. She had always been intrigued with the history of Equestria, so she picked one of those. She sat down and began to read.

"Well, that was quite enjoyable" Night said

"Yep" responded Autumn, "lets get somethin to eat now; what ya in the mood for?"

Night looked across the room at a menu board, "Well, I could go for a dandelion sandwich; and maybe we could all split some hay fries" Night reached behind his wing and took out his money clip. "How about you Miss Rosemary?"

She walks over to two new stallions who walked in; one in shades of brown, and the other grey. She batters her eyes. "Would two kind stallions like you want to meet and maybe buy this little ladie a drink?" She flirts with them both, Spark and Chris, although, she really didn't want to get into a relationship with anypony yet. Just meet some new ponies to learn about and maybe form a truce with.

Chris ordered a beer, nothing too expensive or fancy. He took a sip, and looked around himself. The place was packed! He was surprised there were bar seats open. Chris looked at a round table, and noticed a group of upper-classmen. He waved, and they all seemed to know him well, all calling him by his radio name. A few other freshman, once hearing the other classman, started whispering and wondering if that was the voice they heard earlier on the radio

After a little while, Sleepy made it to the lake and shed her saddlebags. "I heard if you go swimming here at midnight, a goddess of the lake will help you pass your next exam," she paused, "but that's rubbish, it's probably what they tell people so that they can watch them get into frigid water at night," she laughed as she dipped a hoof into the water.

A few moments after Night took a seat, Autumn appeared.  He was levitating a tray with three dandelion sandwiches and an order of hayfries for them to share.  After lowering the tray to the table, he took a seat in the chair next to Rosemary & and passed out the sandwiches.  He then tried to spark a conversation, "So...

She looks down at her food once again picking it up and beginning to eat it hoping she wouldn't have to go in depth of her past.

Chris ordered a beer, nothing too expensive or fancy. He took a sip, and looked around himself. The place was packed! He was surprised there were bar seats open. Chris looked at a round table, and noticed a group of upper-classmen. He waved, and they all seemed to know him well, all calling him by his radio name. A few other freshman, once hearing the other classman, started whispering and wondering if that was the voice they heard earlier on the radio

"By chance, were you listening to Hoover State's radio channel this morning?"

((he talkin to spark?))

Rosemary looks at her sandwich "well... I like to read..." Rosemary looks Autumn "I really don't do much... I'm lucky enough to be able to attend collage... I don't get payed much for the minor job I do... basically I just sit around waiting for a phone to ring..." She sighs looking back at her sandwich she takes off her boots and tights placing them under the table so she could eat. "Like I said... I have money problems... doesn't help much that my past sucked..." she looks up from her food in surprise Oh, no... Please for the love of Celestia, tell me I didn't say that out loud... She looks down at her food once again picking it up and beginning to eat it hoping she wouldn't have to go in depth of her past. 

Night and Autumn both mentally facehoofed.  Neither knew exactly what to say,  so they just looked down and ate.  Night finally broke the silence by excusing himself to use the washroom.  Now alone with Rosemary, Autumn said "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to..."  After a moment, he tried to start again "Well, college is all about fresh starts right?  We all have things we'd rather not remember..."  He laughed nervously and continued eating.

Rhythm laughed and rolled onto her front, using her hooves to stay afloat.
"I'm taking music, history and English. What about you?"
She dived underwater and, holding her breath, swam from one side of the water to the other before coming up again for breath.

"Business, Design, and Philosophy," she said and she swam towards the edge of the lake and stepped out, shaking off and getting her towel from her saddlebags. "I'm going into business selling mattresses and dream consultations," she wrapped the towel around her shoulders and sat on the shore, the sun warming her and slowly drying her fur. Her wet mane hung down in an unkempt curtain before she swept it together and tied it up again.

"Cool! I'm hoping to be in a band and be a professional drummer."
Rhythm stepped out of the lake and got out a towel from her own saddlebag. She quickly dried herself and her tail and then put up her damp mane in a towel turban.
"Let's hope we pass our next exam!" She laughed.

As her mom helped her take her bags out of the car, she set down her skate board, and hopped on And I go too....? she thought to herself. 

 

As she takes her dufflebag straps in her mouth she says, "Fanks mwowm" and skates to the sidewalk. Then she stopped, forgetting where to go, so she looked for another pony.

She smiles and looks at Autumn "Like I said I'm even lucky enough to be going to collage and so far you two are being really friendly to me." She looks back at her food and begins to blush slightly.

"A band huh? My brother always wanted to be in one of those. He tried to start a band in highschool, named it 'Midnight Burrito'. Wasn't too successful as you can imagine. A year later he tried again with 'Autocowreck'. Let's just hope ya have better luck than he did, maybe pick a better name," She chuckled. She got up from the shore and started back towards the coffee shop at a leisurely pace.

Converse looks around, studying each pony quickly when they were not looking.
Some might be lucky enough to get on my good side...

((Guys, I plan to mellow out Converse since she is not subject to her family's pressure that much anymore. At least, that's her canon backstory after she goes to uni.))

She walks over to two new stallions who walked in; one in shades of brown, and the other grey. She batters her eyes. "Would two kind stallions like you want to meet and maybe buy this little ladie a drink?" She flirts with them both, Spark and Chris, although, she really didn't want to get into a relationship with anypony yet. Just meet some new ponies to learn about and maybe form a truce with. Or whatever you call it... Friendship...

((So it begins. ouo))

Spark raised an eyebrow at the mare who'd just came over to himself and Chris. "I've got enough bits I suppose, what do you drink?" He asked, he studied the mare as he talked, she looked pretty enough, and he could tell that she was about his age, maybe a year or two older.

Well well well, I'm curious about this one. he thought to himself.

Rhythm chuckled at the silly band names while drying her mane quickly. She squeezed the towel dry and folded it up, putting it in her saddlebag.
"Yeah, I hope to be a big hit. I need to learn some more things before I can even make a band, though."
She trotted after Sleepy.
"Where are we going?"

Chris was just totally oblivious to the flirting. He wasn't dumb, he just ignored it for so long after Coconut that he didn't acknowledge it. His nice guy attitude was just never on that track, too. Chris was always looking for friends, not a relationship. He pulled out a few bits, but put them away when Spark offered

"Ah! Hello! This is Spark and I'm Chris. You may have heard me on the University Radio, I'm also known as Gamemaker there and around campus. What's your name miss?"

"I've only had four and a half cups of coffee today, I'm running low," she said without breaking stride. "The cafe is pretty close to your dorm so I can drop you off afterwards," she flapped her wings lightly to get rid of some of the water. She would have to preen them when she got back to her dorm.

"I'm Starscape. Just call me Converse." She eyes Spark, obvious that she at least had some flirting power left. It wasn't very enjoyable.
"Anything will do, not too fussed about it." She smiles weakly at him, then turns to Chris "I think I might have been listening in this morning on my way to the campus. Your voice does sound familiar. Nice music!"
She grabs a stool and sits on it next to spark, looking over at the two and piecing ideas together. "So, you guys new too?"

She trotted alongside Sleepy.
"Do you know anypony else coming here? I don't know anypony, except you, of course."

Clover couldn't help but listen to the conversation that the ponies by her were having. Ugh She rolled her eyes. It always got on her nerves when mares charmed stallions to get a free drink out of them.

A stallion came up to her with what she'd ordered. "Thank you." Clover gave him the bits. Finally, some food! She took a bite into the over-sized curly fry.

((Its a pub so like Irish stuff and fries, right?))

Sleepy shook her head, "You're the first pony I've talked to here. I haven't met my roommate yet either, she's out at a bar or something. Most of my friends went to foreign colleges, places where you have to 'donate' to get in. We almost couldn't pay for our house in Canterlot, so it's just me," she said with a sigh. She perked up, "It's alright though, my friends told me the coffee there tastes terrible, and I couldn't live that way," she grinned as she stepped back onto the sidewalk.

She skidded to a stop, and picked up her skate board. She saw other ponies trotting into a building called 'Jasons' so she reached out and said, "Ooh ooh ooh!" And trotted after them, thinking there'd be a map, or somepony who could show her around.

Instead of that, she saw drunk ponies everywhere. So she stopped where she was and looked around, confusedly.

Rhythm listened and giggled at the coffee part.
"Let's just hope this cafe is good then!"
She trotted along happily, glad to have made a friend in such short time.
"I haven't met my roommate yet either. I hope he or she is nice. I'd hate to have a grumpy roomie, wouldn't you?"

(( Pubs have maatly American foods, like french fries, burgers, wings. Their brews are Irish though, and the Pub was a Irish creation ))

Spark was the one who wanted a mare, so Chris wasn't going to pull the obvious flirt's attention away from him. He smiled back at her though, and was still friendly. She did look pretty cool, but he didn't want to be a dick to his friend. Chris answered her "Yep, I love the older stuff, but some of the newer house music is cool too. And I am new, but not really. My brothers went here, so a lot of ponies already know me. I also came a week early to run the radio, another thing my older siblings did" Chris gave Spark a nudge, then turned to talk to the mare next to him

"Let's let the flirts, flirt, no?" He chuckled at Clover, just being friendly "I saw you roll your eyes, you know Converse?"

Sleepy reached the front of the cafe, "Well, I think that grumpy people just need a little extra help to be happy. Back before my mom got married she used to take to to her girlfriend's house and let me play with her kids. Her girlfriend lived in ponyville and there was this pink mare that always hung around the bakery, sweetest mare I know. She could cheer up anypony," she held the door open for Rhythm. She put the towel back in her saddlebags. "I don't know if I could cheer somepony up as well as she could, but I think I could handle living with a grumpy roommate. I had an older brother, remember?" she flashed a smile before walking up to the counter. "You want anything? I'm buying," she said, pulling out her wallet."
