Please read Apps thread before posting, thank you.

 

Manehattan Apartment

 

​     Anna drove a pretty large SUV, that she honestly hated because it was a gas guzzling monster that she knew she never would use the extra size. In Canterlot though, a large car meant protection, because when you're driving on a mountain with Canterlot drivers, size means everything. So it made her feel safe, and it'd be the same here in Manehattan right? As she drove about the crowded streets, she eventually found her new home. A quaint little apartment building that was actually quite high despite how narrow it was. To the right of it was a parking garage that seemed to serve for both the city and the building. Anna turned her truck in, and went to the fifth level. It was the highest, but only took her halfway up the actual apartment.

 

     It was a overcast kind of day, the type of day where rain threatened to show itself all day, but ended up never showing up. It was the late evening in the fall, the weather was crisp, on the verge of being cold, but not quite yet. Leaves blew around in the streets as cars beeped, trucks rumbled, and ponies pushed and shoved through the city during the rush hour. Anna seemed to just miss this rush, as her SUV rolled into it's parking spot. The pegasus opened her door and turned off the car. She couldn't help but to wander over to the concrete wall that put a barrier between her and the loud city outside, and looked out at her apartment building. It was large, red, and new looking. The buildings around it, which were older than dirt, made it look like some type of modern masterpiece, where in reality it was just a regular old middle-class apartment building to the rest. Anna turned around and approached her car again, realizing the garage was deserted. She wondered where everyone was, and what awaited her on the other side of the door on that level. It lead to almost a middle lobby of the building, a few floors up via elevator would get her to her floor and room. But she had a few things to handle.

 

     Anna first went into the back and pulled out a stroller, then rolled it to the side of the car, to open the side door and pull a small sleeping foal out of his carrier. The little guy yawned and stretched, but he was laid back down in his stroller and soon fell right back to asleep, giving his mother a good moment of relief. His name was Zeus, a little foal who was Anna's first and only son. She pushed the stroller aside (But, of course, kept a good eye on it) as she unpacked one trunk from the back of her car, and a large bag, so she could make her way upstairs. Anna locked her car, then entered the lobby. A receptionist gave her keys, she took them, and up the elevator she went to her room.

 

    Of course, Anna was sharing this room with 4 other ponies she knew about. When she got up there, she was surprised to open the door to nopony in there. For once, she was actually first, to a apartment that was so brand new and clean. There was a very short hall she rolled her trunk through, that lead to a general living area. To the right of her was a kitchen, fully equipped with everything a kitchen could needs, and a nice dining area. To the left was another hall that lead down to the 1 bathroom and 4 bedrooms the paper promised. Anna put her things down, keeping her hooves on the stroller as she looked at the room. It was so... cramped, for 6 ponies anyway. She sighed at the plain grey floors and walls, and wished she could go shopping for decorations, as well as something to eat. Anna had to think of what room to take too...

 

     As Anna leaned on her stroller, she looked down at who was in it. Zeus sucked on a pacifier, and laid on his back as he peacefully slept. The question was what she was going to do with a foal. She ordered a crib, that was in the living area currently put together, which Anna thought would be a good idea to just situate herself. One of them would have to sleep on the couch, and Anna didn't mind, but Zeus was a problem. Her little foal couldn't sleep in there if ponies wanted to use the living area to watch TV or somehting, because then he'd keep waking up and disturbing them. The best place to take was the king room, so Zeus would get half of the queen bed, and Anna would get the other half, but she couldn't push herself to claim the nicest room and be so rude. So she decided to pick the smallest. Anna took the smallest room, closest to the living area.

 

     Anna took Zeus out of the stroller and set him on the unmade single bed that was in the room. She opened the dresser in the room, and started to unpack her very small bag. Her son just laid on the bed like a lazy dog, sleeping away as he sucked on his pacifier.

Prism Twinkle arrived in Manehattan by train with big red eyes from crying too much, a worried frown spread across her face. Her thoughts were plagued by self-doubt. How could I forget the final stitch, how could I have thought it'd turn out ok? That was stupid, now I've really gone done it and made a fool of myself... Oh, she'd never forgive me. I might as well never return...

 

"Ma'am? Ma'am, you need to get off the train." The conductor piped up, tapping his watch impatiently. "I need to be at Hollow Shades for 10 o'clock."

 

For a moment Prissy just looked up at him pleadingly, but not entirely certain what she was pleading for. It's not like he'd be able to convince her that she'd tried her best. She wasn't sure if that was possible for anyone to do. A moment after, she obliged and walked off of the train, three colourful and over-packed suitcases strapped to her back. She decided to walk to the apartments, it wasn't far.

 

The colourful mare entered the lobby and looked worriedly at the large flight of stairs she'd need to conquer. For a moment she felt tears well up in her eyes, but she was determined to do it. As she begun on the first step, a bored-looking receptionist turned to her. "Ma'am. You need your keys, don't you?"

 

Right. She'd forgotten that bit. Graciously, she took a set of keys from the pony at the desk and levitated  them in front of her with white magic as she trotted up the stairs. She probably ought to have said thank you, but for fear of bursting out crying she decided not to. Soon enough she got to the correct flight and checked her keys. They read 5A and in front of her stood room 6B. She whimpered, then went back downstairs and opened up 5A without even thinking to knock.

 

"Anypony home? I'm Prism Twinkle, I've come from Ca-anterlot." She hiccuped a little when saying the name of her hometown. Was she really homesick already?

"Are you sure you can handle the rent on your own?"

 

The white RV rumbled down Manehatten's streets, looking out of place in the otherwise bustling city. Bus-sized vehicles were rare in this town, it seemed, even in the traffic. Smaller cars would dance around the behemoth now and then to get a better spot or a faster lane, but the RV continued on unhindered.

 

Orbit shook his head for what seemed like the tenth time. "I'll... be ok. You don't have to worry, Dad."

 

The silver-maned pegasus at the driver's seat chuckled. "That's what they all say." He flicked the indicator light with a hoof, before turning the truck into a side lane, showing skill that only a bus driver- or a well experienced traveler could hope to attain. "Either way, you should really start packing, we're reaching there in a few minutes."

 

"Are you sure you're going to be okay?" Orbit asked, trotting over to the back of the RV and picking up his luggage from the couch-bed where it rested, "I mean... on your own and all..."

 

"Ach, I've been driving as long as you've put your little hooves all over this van," the pegasus smiled. "I'll be fine."

 

The RV slowed to a halt in front of the apartment with a hiss, completely dwarfing the cars parked at it's entrance. Traffic slowed for an instant as it swiftly reversed and parked itself, taking up two conventional parking slots.

 

Orbit trotted down the steps, luggage in tow. As if on cue, his father rolled down the side window, before waving a hoof goodbye. He smiled.

 

"...See you."

 

"Don't forget to write."

 

With that, the RV once again did a swift reverse back into the traffic, before rumbling off. Orbit took once last glance at the mobile home that had been his home for as long as he could remember, waving back at it till it turned out of sight.

 

Trotting up the steps, Orbit paused at the counter long enough to grab the keys to the apartment room he supposedly shared. Not that he knew anyone there, but it had been a fair deal.

 

Keys in hoof, he trotted over to a couch at the lobby, waiting to see who else would walk in.

Intel Cloud had already packed up her things in her fathers home, and said goodbye. She was very close to her father, although she didn't see him for 10 years straight. Although she was worried about leaving him again, she knew she had to. She trotted over to the Cloudsdale Airport, and went into flight A17. On the flight board it said FLIGHT A17- MANEHATTEN Am I sure about this, she thought, do I really want to leave my father, my friends, and my town? And for what, the CITY? FLIGHT A17-BOARDING A-D Better now then never, she thought, as she handed the lady her ticket, and trotted onto the plane.

She landed in Ponyville. When she trotted off of the plane, she had a neck pillow on, and was very tired. An old friend trotted by her, it was... What's his name... Kiwi! "Oh, hello Kiwi!"

 

He trotted up to her, "Oh, Hey iCloud. What are you doing in Ponyville? Shouldn't you be back in Cloudsdale running the weather website?"

 

Kiwi was an old friend of hers, they had much in common. But she never really thought about him the same way when her friend Ivory Sketch said they would look cute together.

 

"Oh, I'm heading to Manehatten. To get a job, make some money... You know, and get a life!" She giggled after she said that, and so did he.

 

"Well, we'll have to talk more. It's been such a long time! You've still got my number right?" He said.

 

"Hmm.. I don't think so," She said, looking down.

 

"Here," he said, taking her hoof. "I'll write it on your hoof" He took out a pen, and wrote his number, not noticing how pink iClouds' face was turning. "Well I'll see you around"

 

"Oh! Umm, yeah! I'll... Ummm... Text you when I move in, Okay?" She said, trying to get rid of the blush.

 

"Yeah, see ya!" He said, trotting away.

 

I wish I could just live here, with him... WHAT?! Ew, I'm becoming love sick, she thought, as she shook her head. Then she flew to the train station. She sighed as she trotted onto the train. No going back now, she thought.

About a half-an-hour later, she got to Manehatten. Luckily the train station was a trotting distance away from the apartment she'd be staying at. As she looked around, she saw many technology related stores. "Yes," She said to herself, "I'll be able to get a job here in no time!"

As she approached the newly renovated apartment building, she thought, It's okay, I can do this. It's only manehatten, and some absolute strangers. Who knows, Ivory Sketch and SS could be living in Manehatten now too! She trotted through the doors, to finally find out what's awaiting her.

Sharing makes trust. Trust makes friends. Friends make life. Life is everything.....

 

Solar Star was eager to meet his new apartment "buddies" as he anticipated them. Or at least, he hoped he anticipated. He rode through the underground subways, always admiring the technology, and remembering that this was not here at one point in time. How could they do anything back then? Magic, I suppose Solar thought. 

 

As such, Solar Star did not need a car. He pretty much knew the city by heart, since he lived there for his entire life. He used the cheap subways, or just plain walked to everywhere he needed to go in the city. After getting off the subway and walking up the stairs to the road, Solar walked to the red apartment building. For a moment, he just stood there, watching, waiting, as if something might happen.

Doc stepped out of the car, with a small bag carrying a few things he had brought. A few degrees, a personal laptop, a few changes of clothes, the basic things he'd need. He took out his keys and locked up his car, a black, slender car, almost like a hearse. He left, trotting around a little, taking in the surroundings, brushing against a few busy ponies here and there.

After some uncomfortable trotting, he had made it to the apartment complex. Nearby, there seemed to be a small, light purple colored mare, a rather young one, at that. Despite the fact that he just wanted to get into his new home and take care of finding a decent job, he saw how she looked, almost as if she were scared of this entire city, much more so than he was.

"Ma'm? Are you alright?" He asked her, still carrying his suitcase. His glasses glared a little in the sunlight, but other than that, he didn't look as intimidating as usual.


(( Squint is IN the apartment building, and she just entered her room. For now, we can either assume your outside our room, and you've collected your keys and such, or this never actually happened ))

Anna notices a new voice, a young in quiet one. For a moment she thought it was a little kid that was calling into the room since she was so quiet and soft spoken. She was almost done her packing, she had gotten her suitcase unpacked into her dresser. The only thin left was her trunk, which in reality, didn't have much. Anna was humble, so she didn't have many processions, she came to Manehattan to get away from the rich and snobby with lots of things. The trunk contained a box with Zeus' toys, a box with pictures and scrap books, her bed settings, and then a few things for the bathroom such as a toothbrush and toothpaste.

Anna peeked his head out the door, looking at the mare. At the angle she was standing, she couldn't see or hear if anypony was behind this little purple mare. Anna figured out she was indeed a resident, she seemed to only be young pony though. She smiled "Hi, I'm here" She replied "My name's Anna, and Zeus is in here. Why don't you pick a room and put your stuff down, then we can get better acquainted later? I have a few things to do myself"

 

(( GUYS! Please read! If you're going to interact with someone, please just read there whole post! Everyone is getting confused and doing stupid things because they're skimming. Such as Solar. Zeus is not out in the open, he's on a bed in Anna's bedroom. He wouldn't see him unless he actually went into her room. Now, there is a crib set up in the living area, so you can ask about that, but he wouldn't see Zeus yet

 

And Sci-fi, Prism (Squint) isn't outside as I said above. Since there is already a lot going on in the room right now, you should maybe talk to Orbit in the lobby or something until things calm down.

 

I know you're all excited about a new roleplay, but you have to pay attention, just for now, until things get settled. It's critical to keeping this RP alive))

She sighs, as she trots over to the other part of the couch, that a brown pegasus is sitting on.

 

"Ughh... It's been such a long day," she said, as she flopped onto the couch.

 

Who is that pegasus, maybe he's moving in too.

 

"Hi," She says to the stallion," The names Cloud, Intel Cloud." She outs out her hoof, for what could be a hoofshake.

Orbit perked up his ears, noticing the mare. That was fast. He had been expecting perhaps several minutes at best before someone else came, but it seemed that most of his roommates had arrived at almost the same time he did.

 

Unless, of course, she wasn't his roommate, which was equally likely. He returned the hoofshake, feeling slightly sheepish for not noticing earlier.

 

"Orbit. High Orbit." He paused for an instant, before adding.

 

"Are... you moving in too?"

"Hey, do you know what room you're moving into," She said, adjusting her saddlebag, "I think I'm moving into A."

(( Okay, I'm going to redo my entrance, so just forget my 3 last lines of my last post while I rewrite them here))

 

Solar Star walks into the lobby of the apartment building, where he saw two ponies talking on a couch. Solar decided to wait for their conversation to finish until he introduced himself, and so stood there, having that sort of waiting for something look on his face. 

 

Solar looked around while waiting, thinking that it would be impossible to live here with 5 others. He then remembered his old science teacher back in his university telling him that nothing was impossible. Solar then trotted towards a chair, and sat down while looking through his stuff while waiting for the two ponies conversation to end.

Orbit frowned slightly, glancing at the key in his hoof. It was your ordinary run of the mill metal key, which somehow brought back memories of his schooling days. Attached to it was a small card, which he turned over to read.

 

"Well... I suppose I am."

 

He ruffled his wings, making sure everything was in it's proper location. Noticing a second pony nearby, Orbit greeted the newcomer with a nod. How long had he been here? 

 

"...Hello, I suppose."

Solar Star realizes that the other pony was speaking to him, and he jumped a bit

 

"Oh..um..Ah! Hello! You must be my new roommates, huh? Well, anyway, my names Solar. Solar Star. I'm glad to meet you!"

 

Solar smiles and wonders if this pegasus would make a good kind friend.

Solar notices the other pegasus, but decides to pull out his laptop, and sits on the couch. While turning it on, he saw the game the mare was playing. 

 

"Ah, that game. Quite possessive among my old school friends. I truly don't understand that game. Equestria Civilizations is where it is at. And my skills are phenomenal." Solar says. "Anyway, are you living here too? It would be nice to meet a new future friend. And if you'd like, seeing you are the gamer type, I'll let you have a try on Civilizations. Its really fun for a strategy game."

 

Solar Star uses his magic to click on the game, and launches it. He begins to play it, pretty deep into it. He wonders when he will see his new home, as he was pretty eager to find everything out

Fall tapped the glass window of the taxi. It was overcast and it did bring her mood down a little. As a young foal she was taught that being optimistic was good but days like these would always bring something bad. Thankfully, the only bad thing that could come was rain. Or, at least, if the weather got any worse. She kept on thinking as she watched the busy sidewalks. Back at Ponyville was a town, a town that definitely wasn't this busy. Though maybe she needed this change of scenery. If she had been taught to adapt to the wild how come she felt she wasnt supposed to be here.

"S'cuse ma'am, this is your place ain't it?" The driver said. He told her the price (which she was slightly taken aback by) though paid it in full as quick as possible. She quickly grabbed her suitcase, slid her large bag onto her foreleg and exited quickly. Of course, she didn't want to stand the poor stallion up on his work so slipped him a quick thank you before she did leave. Then she looked at the building. It was a middle-class estate, shinny red and looked slightly fake to her. Back home they at least maintained a slightly traditional standard of house and shop alike.

She was swift in entering. Her room consisted of herself and five others. Possibly a young foal, they normally didnt count as proper residents. As she entered she scanned the place. Clean, ticy, nicely decorated. Of course, she knew it was merely new paint on an old wall. Go behind and you'll see the real deal. As she looked around she saw two ponies conversing. Did she have time for that? No. It was all well if they wanted to do that but she had to unplaced. She also had to study, place a foal sitting advertisement somewhere, get ahead as early as possible.

Then she calmly proceeded to walk to the receptionist. She told the apartment letter and the receptionist asked for her name. Fall, of course, obliged momentarily. Then she was given keys. There was no actual explanation as to what the keys were for but only someone very slow would ask such a thing. With the keys, bag and suitcase she walked to the elevator. It would be surprising if she was the first one there. Very surprising. Well, then she'd get a head start. A clean slate was just what she needed.

After entering her new apartment she sighed. What a bland place. Then she noticed a fellow pony on the couch. It had been a slightly tiring day. She waited for him to notice her, as her throat felt sore and back aches from carrying too much stuff at once.

((I'm sorry, I've rewritten the latter part to fit better. The reason I didnt notice this was due to my iPhone continously stopping the first page from loading so I might have missed that. I only managed to get it to load once on my old phone.))

After entering her new apartment she sighed. What a bland place. Of course, all the necessities were there. From the kitchen to bathroom, bedrooms and living area. Then again, they had to provide those bare necessary items. It would probably be against pony law to provide a place with unsuitable conditions. After looking around a bit more she realised it was silent. She was completely alone. For once she was in silence away from bustling crowds. The only pony in the room was her. But she had to get on. Not on thing could be enjoyed if there was work to be done. As the first one there, she decided to have the second biggest bedroom. Not the biggest as that would be unfair. That size would do for now.

((Someone could notice her in a hurry and go after her. Or just leave her to it.))

(( No, no. Let's wait for Sci-fi. I told him to delete his first post and interact with you, since his first post made a plothole. Just wait for him to post

 

Somepony can notice you, but not chase after you. I'm trying to evenly distribute the interactions and people ))

Doc had settled down in the apartment already. He had been waiting for his laptop to boot up, the light from the screen glaring from his glasses as he sat on the couch in the apartment. He turned his head quickly when he heard Fall, his ears perking up in surprise, but going back to normal once he realized that there was no reason to be afraid. 

 

"Oh, hello. Are you living in this apartment as well?" He said, closing his laptop quickly and standing up.

 

He was a rather tall stallion, almost looming over Fall, but he tried his best not to intimidate her, especially since she hardly knew him. Last thing he wanted was to start off in Manehattan with a reputation of being frightening.

 

Even so, as non-threatening as he tried to look, his pale coat and yellow eyes didn't help, of course. He put on a smile, but it seemed forced.

Fall smiled at the tall pony. The stallion seemed polite enough and she already had a feeling they'd at least get along. His sharp yellow eyes and very mild coat were a slight bit odd to her but she had seen ponies with pink eyes, purple even. Long ago she had learnt that all ponies are equal wether their tall or short, big or small and all other variations and differences ponies can have. As well as that she did learn to respect other races. As long as they are not invaders or from an enemy race then all races should be considered equal. Those were the morales she always stood by.

"Hello," She replied in her melodic voice. "My name is Winterfall. I do live here now." As she said so she noticed his smile. It had that horrible look of forced expressions. Then again maybe he just looked like that. After all, she'd get used to it anyway. Better if she noticed and got used to it early. As she continued to tell herself, optimistic and bright. That's what she had been taught. She stuck to what she had been taught like glue, always.

Orbit glanced at the two, who had apparently traded just about two sentences before launching into a whole other world. He raised a hoof to add something, before deciding against it. Of course, the wise thing to to would be to ask to leave on other matters, but judging by how intent they were...

 

"Well... umm..." He mumbled, standing up, "I guess... I'll be going?"

 

He added several other mumbled excuses before standing up, pushing his saddlebag back.

Orbit stopped mid-trot, hearing his name being called. It wouldn't be the first time he had been ignored, nor the first time he had left without announcing it, but it was still rare for someone to call him out for it. Either way, it felt strangely refreshing.

 

"It's... Orbit, but yeah."

 

He trotted up the stairs, deciding to take the long way by sheer instinct.

As Solar got a bit more tired, he decided to gather his belongings and walk up the stairs to get to his apartment. 

 

"Hmm. Apartment A, eh? Well, better get there to unpack" Solar said to himself.

 

Solar reached the hallway and then the room. With the key he received from downstairs, he went to open the door, although it was already slightly ajar. As Solar walked inside, he stared at the room which was to be his new home

Anna peaked her head out hte door a second time a few minutes later to see a new pony. A stallion by the looks of it, one that looked very educated and wise. She smiled politely, though she wanted to get back to her work. The pegasus was only halfway done, she almost had her room in order, but not quite yet.

 

"Hi, I'm Anna!" Anna chirped, she then noticed the crib still in the living area. She hopped out of her room quickly "Oh, let me get this out of here"

Solar was happy to see another friendly face.

"Ah, hello! My name is Solar Star. It's good to meet you Anna," Solar replied.

He also took note of the crib.


"Why is there a crib here? Are you taking care of a foal or something? You seen quite young for the job," Solar asked

Solar walked over to the corner and starts looking through his possessions that he brought with him, and notices a mare at the door talking to him.

 

"Ah, hello. I'm here!" Solar replied to her

At that, Anna immediately blushed. That wasn't really a proper thing to say, was he implying something, was he? That was a really touchy subject for her, since Zeus wasn't exactly planned, and it was aspects beyond her control that gave her the foal that was sleeping in the other room. Of course, being the sensitive topic it was, Anna got a little defensive when she replied to Solar as they pushed the crib towards her room

 

"Y-Yes, I have a foal, and I really don't care how old you think I should be. Why, if you were in the position as me-" Anna cut herself off, purposely. She let Solar push the crib the rest of the way in as she saw a mare at the door. Anna smiled and acted like what she did ever happened, and that this new pony never heard her say anything.

 

She approached and shook her hoof "Hi, my names Anna, and I'm your roomate. Make yourself at home, there is still plenty of rooms open" Anna said happily.

Larz was stuck on traffic for a fairly long time. The traffic is the same.... Something I definitely don't need to get used to... Finally he could turn left and enter the street where his new apartment  Hmm moving here should be nice, as long as my roommates aren't corrupted government officials or a senator with way too much time on their hands everything will go smoothly. Larz drove his Canis Bodhi into the garage and parked next to an SUV. What is this a soccer mom? He grabbed a pack of cigarette and lit one soon bring it to his mouth. He puffed some smoke before opening the trunk of his truck and grabbing a large box. I damn this cross country tax couldn't even have someone ship this to me.... 

 

He made his way to the lobby, where he talked to a bored looking receptionist. "I'm the new resident fifth floor room B I need the keys'' Larz asked.

 

The receptionist only raised an eyebrow. ''Another one? Well fine here's the key''

 

Larz made his way to the elevator. Another one? So the ponies I'm sharing the apartment with are already here.... He reached his floor and stopped before the door. He knocked on it a few times to see if anyone would answer.

Anna doesn't really like that answer either, but she ignored the unicorns rudeness, she had encountered far worse in Canterlot. He had to understand that it was kinda wrong to question a mare's age and if that age is good enough in there standards to be a parent. Maybe she was just over thinking it, she did often get all up tight when anyone asked about Zeus' origins beyond the fact that his father was nowhere to be found. So that was fine, but she found it extra rude that Solar just left the crib there for the mare to push. Now, again, she was humble, but she was so used to the stallion doing the strong moving stuff... she probably had to get used to that.

 

She pushed the crib into her room and smiled at Zeus "I got your crib!" She chirped happily, but Anna got no response because little Zeus was out. He laid on his back, catching flys, and was obviously very exhausted from the ride up here. "Yeah, I was expecting you to be sleeping...."

 

The mother headed out, realizing she was about done. She waited around, seeing if anypony needed anything

"My name is W - Winterfall Stream." There was an accidental stutter on the Winterfall, though this was quickly repaired. Anyway, the stutter was only little. Maybe he wouldn't notice, maybe he would. It was always hard to tell the observation skills of a pony. But he was a doctor, or at least she assumed, and probably would notice. To swiftly divert his attention to something else, she asked, "So, if you don't mind me asking, what are you doing." She looked behind the large stallion to see a light coming from a laptop.

He's a doctor... Wait a minute, why would he be living here? Oh well, at least I know I'm going to have not all my roommates be impolite stallions. She thought with a mental note that she could interact freely with him provided that the first conversation goes very well. Which, as far as she was concerned was going to.

((Small detail, but how would you know tude's OC didn't belong in the room, Star? The only people that are in there are you, Swim's two OC's, Squint, as well as iCloud I presume, Orbit hasn't arrived yet and you don't know who will be in which yet either way...))

 

((I'll just do a location recap for everyone, shall I?))

 

((ROOM A : Prism is in the room, though her location is not defined. Solar is currently standing at the doorway, conversing with Lars. Anna is in the living room with iCloud. Zeus is in one of the small bedrooms, asleep. Orbit is somewhere in the hallway, waiting for either Solar or Lars to stop blocking the doorway.))

 

((ROOM B : Fall and Doc are in the room.))

 

Orbit finally staggered up to the floor his supposed room was on, panting for breath. Once again, he had gone and done it. What was with him and the reluctance to use elevators anyways? Shaking it off, he took a few more steps forward, but paused as the phone buried deep within his saddlebag vibrated several times. Lifting the flap with his wing to take it out, Orbit glanced at it, already knowing what was going to be there.

 

elevators exist

 

He smiled slightly, putting the phone back. Even now his father still managed to somehow keep an eye on him, far though he might be going. His next trip was out of town and then some, to a distant mountain village where his clients waited.

 

Orbit shook his head, trotting to the door, only to pause as he noticed a griffin already standing outside. He was apparently conversing with a unicorn, who was standing right smack in the middle of the doorframe, blocking the way in quite unintentionally.

 

The sight brought back memories. How many times had he seen scenes just like this on the first day of university, over and over again?

 

Oh well, he could wait.

Autumn stepped out of the subway slowly, the train having gone underground once it reached the city. She looked around into the greys of the station, and stepped out, feeling at home. Back home in Hollow Shades, living underground in grey-ish sorts of buildings was normal. Autumn shrugged on her saddle-suitcases and trotted to the nearest staircase. The rest of her journey was also pretty natural to her. Until she had to walk out of the station and into the sunlight.

 

W-WHAA-HAAA-HAAIEEEE-AHHHHH

Autumn wailed in her head, grunting and squealing at the extremely vivid light entering her eyes. She was blinded for a minute or two until she could adjust. She rubbed her eyes furiously, and went to a shady part next to the glass doors to the station. The glint of sunlight that had caught her eyes was an unlucky catch, being right in front of the door. Autumn, after regaining control of her eyes (of which were watering), lifted up golden brown hued sunglasses and slid them onto her face. The world turned dark, her enchanted sunglasses making a ray of sunlight like a soft glow from the moon. Autumn grunted once more, regaining her composure, and set off again. She did not stop for a taxi- She needed to stretch her wings from that extremely long train ride anyways. The suitcases were strapped under here wings, so he had enough space to flap. She didn't have very heavy things either, which was really nice. She took off, trying to avoid other flying ponies and griffons while she made her way to the apartment. Some ponies while she passed were disgusted and surprised at her wings, and kept away from her.

"You shouldn't be in the sunlight, bloodsucker!" Some had called out to her, then fled off.

 

Autumn fiddled with her phone, following an automatic map right to the front doors of the apartment building. She stepped in the door with a grunt and took off her glasses. Unnatural light didn't disturb her nocturnal eyes so much. The pupils still restricted to a tight slit, making a prominent sign of her heritage. She trotted up to the desk where a mare was sitting, and put her hoof on the top.

"Uhh... This should be the right place... uhh... i'm room B... can i get my keys... thank you...?" Autumn said aloud, to the mare awkwardly. She looked up suddenly at her with a start, then recoiled a tiny bit when her gaze met the scary pony's slitted eyes. She held back a squeal.

"Oh... another... Jeese how many ponies did the owner get..." the mare trailed off, bored again. "Here... Your- keys..." she grabbed the keys, and dropped them just short of Autumn's hoof. Autumn just blinked, took them then walked off to the elevators, a little offended.

That was rude...

 

Autumn had clicked the button in the elevator, and was now on the floor she needed to be on. She looked around, hearing commotion. She walked further, only to see a bunch of other ponies (and a griffon). She stopped suddenly, in surprise.

Oh god... Please don't have anything illegal hidden or planned in my home... ughhhh...

She started walking again slowly, painfully. Finally after a few seconds, she reached her door, where a griffon had just been brought into a conversation by a unicorn, and where a pegasus was just standing, watching them.

Uh... This is weird...

 

Autumn passed them all, sidestepping the griffon, then stuck the key in the door and opened it. She was surprised to find the door wasn't actually locked. She didn't care at first who was inside, but shortly corrected herself, walking into the main room, only to find two other ponies, in conversation.

"Oh, hello there- Uh, sorry for barging in... Are you my roommates..?" She asked them, wanting to see if they noticed her or not.

Fall was slightly startled by the sudden entrance. She span towards the pony but gave her a warm smile once she saw her. She was obviously a bat-pony, an interesting species which were once thought to be myth until Luna, one of the last Alicorn princesses, made some her guards. It was impossible for her eyes not to skip from one place to another and look at the interesting features. Then it occurred to her the fact she was being rude.

"Oh! Hello, why yes, we are. My name is Winterfall." She gave a warm, heartfelt smile at her. "Why, you have absolutely gorgeous hair, it compliments your coat so well." She complimented completely genuinely.

"Hello? Can we help you?" He asked Larz.

Solar Star, realizing that he left the crib for the kind mare, felt utterly mad at himself for doing such a thing. He decided to apologize, as he did not want this action to be a first impression on a pony he was going to live with. He walked into the room, feeling a bit embarrassed.

 

"Oh, I'm sorry Anna. Forgive me for not helping you," Solar said. "I am usually not this selfish of myself, its just I was answering the door to a nice griffin fellow. I'll be unpacking my belongings in the other room if you don't mind. Just call if you need any assistance," 

 

Solar Star walked into the other room and started unpacking his stuff near his bed.

O..Okay then.. Larz puffed some more smoke while a bat pony sidestepped him to enter his apartment What a crowded place... Oh well that's the best my budget can cut it...  Larz heard a voice coming from the apartment where the unicorn was and saw him apologizing to someone. Larz took this as a cue to enter the his own apartment after the bat pony. ''Sorry to intrude'' He walked in seeing two other ponies besides the bat pony, a pegasus and a unicorn. The unicorn directed a question towards Larz. '' Hello I'm also moving here. name's Larz pleasure to meet Mr....?

The sun was finally starting to dip under the horizon on this October day in the great Equestrian city of Manehattan. The sky was orange and purple as the moon slowly started to rise up in the distance. The tall skycrapers made large shadow as the final remaining light gave them a magnificent outline. The many rooms of the hundreds of tall buildings started to light up as ponies settled down and turned on their lights. The city never sleeped though, though outside the night brought a very cold atmosphere, cars and people still were awake outside. In about a hour, it would officially be night.

 

=====================================================

 

 

Anna sighed, looking over at Solar. He was friendly, she was sure he didn't mean no harm. These last few months he hadn't had much interaction with ponies, other than her baby and her mother, two ponies she didn't need to earn respect from. Anna believed she was probably a bit rusty, and she was always a bit socially awkward, although she came from a family of highly known group of social divas that did nothing but party. Well, let's just say she was a bit of a oddity in that family, next to her aunt. Anyway, she knew that she shouldn't have been so defensive, because this Solar unicorn didn't seem like such a bad guy, especially not one who would attack her without even knowing who she was.

 

"It's fine, uh, Solar" Anna said quietly, stumbling over his name since she just learned it. The pegasus looked at the clock "You can make it up to me. Maybe we should get some bits together and order out some dinner. I mean, we shouldn't cook, since we don't have anything. So, we can either get some pizza, or Chinese food, or hay sandwiches... I don't know what's good in the city, but I am sure it's time for dinner. I don't know about you guys, but I'm getting hungry"

 

She quickly got up and checked on Zeus. He was still asleep. She returned and sat back down, looking at Solar or anyone for a reply

The car had left Possum Springs about 5 hours ago. Mae had stared out the back at the town she'd probably never return to. It held so many memories to her, and while she knew that the place wasn't going to exactly be a good place to live once all the money from the mine stopped flowing in, that didn't mean she couldn't feel like she wanted to stay for longer.

 

She'd barely talked to her parents on the way to Manehatten. Maybe she felt angry at them... Maybe she just didn't have anything to talk about. She'd packed pretty much everything she felt she needed: Clothes, her laptop, her bike, a rucksack, all of the posters from her old room, and her trusty Slugger baseball bat. She brought her phone, too, but that was less packed and more on her person.

 

Now, the car was parked outside Central Park in Manehatten. Mae looked out the window over the enormous city. Could she even manage here? She doubted it.

 

Her mother looked to her "We got you in an apartment" She said, wistfully.

 

Mae sighed "Yeah, whatever..."

 

Suddenly, a wad of money was shoved into her lap "There, that's your allowance for the month. Get a job, because we're not going to give you any more after a few months" Her father murmured to her through his thick mustache.

 

Mae wasn't taken aback. Her father was a very direct man, and she hadn't expected that to change at all.

 

She looked outside again "Soooo I guess this is goodbye?" She asked, climbing out.

 

Her mother climbed out as well, and hugged her. Her cheeks turned red.

 

"I'm gonna miss you, mom, and I know you'll miss me, but we can talk, don't worry. Now... please stop hugging me"

 

A little while later, Mae had unpacked her stuff, and waved her mom and dad as they drove off. She held her rucksack which contained pretty much everything she had, and quickly doodled the nearby map of the area onto her notebook. She climbed on her bike, looked around, and started pedalling towards the place she was going to live in for the next few years of her life.

The moment when Anna said something about not knowing something about the city, Solar's ears perked up. He knew all of the best places to order from, which were cheap too. But the Solar realized that he would have to go to the grocery store to get food for the apartment. This would probably be the last time he would be able to eat good dinner until he gets his real job.

"Dinner? You're speaking to the right pony! I know all the good places! Well, I lived here all my life. Well, there is Equestrian Pizza, Big Pies, Big Bellies, Hay Central..." Solar gets carried away with listing places to go too

autumn moved out of the way of the griffin. "oh sorry- I thought you were in the other room since that other pony was talking to you" she said, then watched him talk with the others.
So I'm stuck with these guys

She looked at the ponies again. "uh.. Yeah, I think we should get to know eachother first"
From a windows at the end of the room, she could see the sun setting. She was tired of staying up most of the day, but felt more lively now that the sunlight was fading.
"we should organise sleeping for you guys. I'm going be awake for some time"

"Oh and, thank you" she replied to the mare.

Anna raised her hoof, being overwhelmed by the list of choices, and shushed him. She smiled a little awkwardly afterwards to show she didn't mean to be rude. This mare actually looked a little tired, not exactly in the mood for long lists, or long conversation about what to eat. Anna was starting to get hangry (If you don't no that's slang for hunger induced anger). She honestly could eat anything, though she was usually good with only eating healthy food. The next day she was probably going to go shopping to make homemade meals every night, something she was good at 

 

"Look sweetie, why don't you just ask everyone what they want? Go around the apartment, tell them what we are doing, ask them what they want, and ask them if they can put a few bits in so we can pay for this" Anna got up, again, and went into her bag she left by the door. She pulled out a few bits and handed them to Solar, "I really don't mind what we get, here's my pay. Now that you have me, you got 5 more to go"

Solar understood, a bit embarrassed for such a thing. He nodded and took the money. He walked around and decided to ask iCloud first.

"Hello iCloud. I was wondering if you knew what you would like to eat for dinner tonight. I certainly would like everyone's choice so I can order by the phone for delivery," Solar asked, eager for an answer, as he was starting to get quite hungry as well. "There are some pizza places here, along with hay burgers..."

Solar took out his phone and showed her a list of places, trying to avoid another pony getting annoyed again.

She moved over a bit, putting her iPone back into her saddlebag.

 

As she looked at Solar's phone, of the whole list of places, she thought How am I going to tell them, it'll be so hard... I don't want to ruin what they have to eat...

 

She put her hoof on his phone, covering the list of restaurants. "Umm... Well... Do they h-have anything...." She stuttered as she spoke.

Solar stood, listening for a reply, but the stuttering was a bit worrying.

"What....what do you mean 'have' anything? Of course they have things to eat." Solar said, "I was just wondering what you had in mind"


Solar again raised his phone, using his magic, and shows her the list of the suggestions.

Anna glanced over at iCloud. She couldn't be vegetarian, right? All ponies were vegetarians! Maybe she was gluten free? Or she was really picky? It was obvious she didn't want to say what she wanted because she didn't want to effect the choices of everyone else. Solar didn't seem to notice that, but with being friendly and nice, he seem to be a little oblivious things. That was a new trait Anna saw a smart pony have, most of her old friends and co-workers were too quick, but he seemed to be the opposite. Maybe he wasn't smart? He had to be.

 

She glanced over again, since iCloud was in the same room on the opposite couch. Anna noticed how odd of a name that was now, but she had other things on her mind. "Icloud, don't be afraid to speak your mind. If you want something else, it's fine"

 

Anna got up after that note and decided to get her foal. The mother walked into the room to see the little guy still sleeping on the single bed in there. She picked him up, and cradled him in her arms. The little pegasus fussed a little about it, since he absolutely hated when ponies screwed with him when he was sleeping, but he knew this was Anna, so it wasn't too much. He resettled himself in her arms, turning himself so he could press his head into her. Anna smiled and brought Zeus into the other room.

 

She went to her bag, pulled out a bottle, and headed back to the couch and sat down. Zeus started to suckle on the bottle of formula, turning his head so he could do so. This was half of dinner for him, Anna was slowly starting to convert his diet to strictly jars of foal food, which he was really good about. Most foals liked to spread it all over their face, or spit it out, but the little guy just ate it all up and always wanted more. However, he still liked his bottles of milk, and would complain when he didn't get any.

 

"This is Zeus by the way" She said, still holding the bottle, and looking down at her little grey pegasus. He now squinted and crossed his eyes to look at the bottle's contents slowly draining from the bottle. Then, he lifted his hooves and put them around the bottle too, one of them going directly over Anna's holding the bottle up.

Solar decided to wait for her, give her some time to decide what to eat. He remembered that his old science teacher said after Solar passed the class with flying colors. He said to always be patent and caring. Solar, which at least tried to do. He usually tried to notice if somepony was not feeling well. But alas, he was tired, and just wanted to eat. A bit selfish of himself.

"I'll just leave you to decide later. I still have a full list of ponies in the room to ask anyway," Solar said, "just come to me when you are ready."

(( I'm trying to imply that I am smart, Solar is just tired. And no, he is quite smart, by the way lol))

She looked up at him, "Okay. I'll probably just heat something up in the microwave."

She got up, and trotted over to Anna. She looked at the little foal, "Zeus, huh? Where'd you come up with that name?" she said.

"Oh, and one other thing. About the food... I am allergic to many things... And I'm also... G-Gluten F-Free..." She spoke to the mare, but then looked down and shuffled her hoof.

Anna was happy to see somepony interested in her foal, Zeus' cuteness easily got her to interact and socialize with people,  since she wasn't always so good at it (So she thought). Then, Cloud mentioned what was bothering her from earlier when Solar was trying to ask her what she wanted for dinner. Anna was correct, and she almost wanted to relish on it, but instead she thought maybe Cloud could use some help on it... Especially with how nervous she seemed. Once Zeus was finished his bottle, Anna took it and placed on a table, then proceeded to put him over her shoulder and pat him. He was old enough that he didn't need to be burped anymore, but she was so used to it, and it was something to keep her hooves busy as she replied to iCloud.

 

"You're joking" Anna said, looking up eventually and raising a eyebrow "I grew up in a snobby family, with a snobby mother, and then moved to a snobby city where I had to work with snobby co-workers. They wouldn't eat ANYTHING, and I mean anything, and they thought it was totally okay although there was nothing wrong with them! Food is a personal thing to a pony, they want it a certain way because they consume it everyday. You aren't a snobby pony, no, but sister, if you're allergic to things, then your allergic to things, and you should be okay if that's the way you are. And if you're gluten free... I don't really mind, honestly, and neither should anyone else. I'm just surprised it was THAT bothering you"

 

Anna looked down at Zeus again, then back up after some hesitation. She answered the next question

 

"As for Zeus here, he was named after a supposed ancient pegasus commander, who's main weapon was to wield lightning and fire it at foes. My mentor in Canterlot was very fascinated in him, since he was a part of mythology, and a symbol of bravery, strength, and leadership." Anna said, offering for iCloud to hold him. He was kinda half asleep, not really doing much or reacting. "Now, when I trust you more, I'll tell you why it has a deeper meaning. A good start is by holding this little guy while we go into the kitchen and find something for you to eat!"

Solar Star decides to talk over to High Orbit to ask about dinner tonight, noticing that Anna was taking care of iCloud.

 

"Hello High, I was wondering. I'm asking everypony what they wanted for dinner tonight since I'm ordering. Here, I have a list for you to see of what the big city has to offer" Solar says, reaching out for his phone.

 

He then goes to the list, and shows High a list of good restaurants to order from in the city. 

 

"I personally enjoy for pizza Equestrian Pizza, but I don't mind what you would like."

Orbit paused for an instant, taken aback by the offer. Sure, it was usual ponies to treat each other to dinner or other meals, but it still seemed strange, considering the fact that he himself had been born and raised in Manehattan, and thus already knew most of where everything was.

 

"Well..." The pegasus let the sentence trail off, clearly at a loss for words. "I'm fine with anything... I suppose."

 

He glanced away, clearly uncertain of what to say next. If anything, he was supposed to be the one to be treating others, since this was his hometown, but to decline an offer was rude.

 

"Also, it's... Orbit," he glanced back at the unicorn, smiling slightly. "Though you... are the first to call me High in a long, long time..."

Mae rode her bike through the streets for about ten minutes before eventually reaching the apartments. She saw a lot during those ten minutes, and it became evident to her that this was a city of many cultures and people. It also made her realize that, although it was the city of opportunity, Manehatten looked like a pretty shitty place to live.

 

There were hobos everywhere, that was the first negative she noticed. All these rooms, in all these skyscrapers and there still wasn't enough room for them. She felt a bit sorry for them, but if she gave them all money she'd have no money. Plus they'd probably just spend it on booze.

 

She looked up at the apartment building she'd be living in.

 

Looks like a shithole. What a surprise. 

 

She grumbled a bit and climbed off the bike. She looked for some kind of bike shed. She didn't find one, but she did find a signpost denying entry through a fence. She pulled out her baseball bat and whacked it. The place already felt like home.

 

She entered the building.

"Hello, I'm in room B... I think. I'm Mae" She said to the receptionist.

 

The receptionist examined the paper she slipped to them, and nodded "Yep, room B. You need help with your bags?" 

 

Mae shook her head "Nah, got it all here" She waved, then started climbing up the stairs. She hated elevators.

Larz looked at hoof for a few seconds he wasn't exactly sure how he should grab it. Eventually he just went for it and with a tight grip he grabed the pony's hoof and shacked. "Good to meet, do all ponies have job related name?" He walked up to the window where he tossed the cigarrete butt. "Also who is gonna keep what room, I have things to unpack"

"It's no big deal" Anna said, placing her foal in her arms "You'll get to know Zeus, you'll figure out quickly that if you were going to live with any foal in a cramped apartment, it'd be a miracle for it to be this one"

She moved ICloud's arms until she was holding the little guy correctly. Zeus didn't move much, he just yawned and rested his head on this new pony. Anna then headed towards the kitchen. When she got there, she opened up a drawer full of a assortment of papers. It had everything from the remote guide, to phone extensions for anything the apartment offered, and what Anna was really looking for was a collection of menus to different restaurants. She spread them across the table, then took Zeus back

"So... Pizza and hay sandwiches are out of the question unless they have a gluten free option. What are you allergic to, exactly? Or is it too much to say?" The Pegasus asked as she put Zeus over her shoulder and stroked his head

"Well, I am allergic to some other minor stuff, like peanuts. But those don't really effect my way of eating. But it's mostly that I'm gluten free. But usually, I only go to restaurants that either have a dedicated gluten-free menu or a gluten-free kitchen." She responded, following Anna into the kitchen.

She looked around, and she realized something. She had barely moved in yet!

"Hey, do you know if any of the rooms are still open? I don't really have one yet," she said to Anna.

"That's something you have to ask everyone else. I'm pretty sure everyone has moved in that is going to move in" She frowned

"You'll have to talk to them, because there is only 4 rooms. One has two separate beds, two are just a single room, and the last is a room with a queen. That makes 5 beds for 6 ponies, taking off one since I already chose my room, so that leaves 4.... I wouldn't want you to end up on the couch, so after we order something you'll have to hop right on that"

Anna was looking through the menu of a sandwich place, her eyes lit up as she came across something that was gluten free "Here we go! This place has gluten free vegi wraps. They look pretty good, the problem is they don't deliver, but they are right around the corner"

Anna smiled, while still patting Zeus "I could go with you to pick it up, since I'll probably order a sandwich for myself... That is, after you get your room situation dealt with"

Solar put his phone down. Anything, huh? I guess the only one left to ask really is Prism. Better get started. Solar thought to himself. He walked back to where Prism stood and pulled out his phone again.

 

"Hello, you must be Prism? Good to meet you. I'm Solar. Solar Star. I guess we'll be living together," He showed her the list, "I'm ordering some dinner tonight for all of us. I just need your opinion for selections. I have a list here of great cheap places in the city we can order from. Living here my whole life can bring you to pick different places."

 

Ask he was waiting, he looked around again at the setting of the room. Solar finally decided he did not need much space at all, and chose a single bed room.

 

"Hey, uh, Anna. Is it alright I take one of the singles?" Solar asked while he was still holding the phone for Prism.

"Well, I'll take whatever is left over, as long as there's an electrical outlet." He said simply.

Prism had fallen asleep on the living room sofa at some point. It was not because she was tired, she had been stressed out and her favourite way to release stress was to take a good long nap. She was now breathing peacefully, her head slumped down in an uncomfortable-looking position and her forelegs curled up to her chest. One hind leg was on the sofa, but the other must have slumped off at some point. Her suitcases were neatly stacked by the door somewhat out of the way.

''If you say so... Then I'm gonna be taking the single room over there'' Larz pointed at the farthest room from where they were.(Room 2) He grabbed his box and flew to his room where he simply dropped on the floor. Walking back to to where everyone else was he stated. ''I need to get to know this city so I'll gonna go grab something to eat you ponies are free to accompany me if you choose so'' Larz coughed a bit. ''Later''

 

Larz instead of using the elevator he took to stairs down but stopped at the fourth floor to light another cigarette. It was then that a female earth pony showed up going up the stairs looking pissed and carrying nothing but a small bag. Larz just stood there looking at her as she climbed up.

Larz puffed some smoke ''Its reasonable'' He looked once again to mare ''And are trench coats common fashion for criminals in this country, if so that is a very stupid idea''

She walked up to the door, placed her key inside, and opened it.

She looked in at the people inside, and just wondered out loud "What the fuck?"

Solar looked at the mare sleeping, who was Prism. He had not noticed that she had dozed off, and decided to get pizza anyway. If Prism did not like pizza, he was sure Anna could help with that since she was so good at helping. Guess Anna is really good at taking care of ponies cause of that child of hers. Quite cute, too. Solar thought. 

 

Now with all of the ponies opinions were gathered, Solar decided to call Equestrian Pizza. 

 

"Ah, thank you....yes, I do want to place an order....yes. Two large boxes of the Large Equestrian Special....and some Pony-Cola......yes, can you deliver here?.....oh goody. My address is [insert address here]....yes, thank you. Of course, thanks. Bye!" Solar ended the call, with a smile. "No need to pickup, we got delivery." 

 

He headed to the room he picked, and unpacked his belongings in there.

Autumn turned around, and had observed the mare.

Oh jeese i'm not liking the mood of this one... i hope it's just PMS or some other sort of shit...

 

"I believe we all are. We were just going to organize who goes in what bedroom. I'm open to sharing the double room with somepony so the rest of you guys- and the griffon- can have rooms to yourselves. If you want." She said to them all aloud.

She trotted a few steps more into the apartment, looking around. It was practically bare other than the proposed beds in the rooms and a couch, some bare shelves and a few windows.

 

"We will also have to organize the pay for each month, and most likely who's gonna cook, chores, what furniture we get, etc, blah blah blah until the end of time-" She continued, drifting off purposely, since no one was taking notice of her anyways. Other than her being the only pony talking then and there. The others were just silent, standing around awkwardly.

 

"Alright. Seems i could be the pony organizing everything, unless someone else wants to keep on top of stuff" She paused, looking around and into the kitchen.

 

"By the way, everyone, my name's Autumn Cast. Uhh... And... your names are..?" she asked the ponies politely.

"What're the rooms like?"

((Dammit I wanted the couch... Also, I like how Solar's trying to be the nice guy but accidentally ends up making everyone else feel awkward due to it))

 

Orbit glanced around the room, still feeling a tad lost. Certainly, the best option right now would be to pick a room, but then again, most of the smaller rooms were chosen already. The only choice would be to pick the master bedroom, but that was awfully large for one pony, especially considering that he had lived in his father's RV for what seemed like years.

 

He turned to look at Solar unpacking, before returning to the one saddlebag he carried. That pony was... strange. He could tell that he was trying to be nice, or at least be friendly, but for some reason was trying just a little too hard.

 

Plus, High was his family name, not his first name...

 

The pegasus sighed. Well, there was nothing to it. If given a choice, he would have taken the couch out of sheer habit, but somepony else had already claimed it. Trotting over, he placed his bag next to the couch, making sure it didn't crush the laptop within. He would have to ask her when she got up, it seemed.

*edit* (( I deleted what I was doing last due to Swim's last post. Sorry Swim, I'll make this new one))

 

Solar put down the phone, and wanted to relax. He went to his room and took out his laptop, which he then turned on. He clicked on his game folder, and decided to resume his game on Equestria Civilizations. He got onto his bed, laying down, and played, while waiting for the pizza he ordered.

 

He hoped everypony would like his choice. He tries to help and comfort others, and hates to see ponies when they are sad. He should practice on making people happy and comfortable. Maybe he could get a job in such a thing, like a student counsler. But then again, he wanted to be a scientist, or at least a science teacher. He loved working with things on science. If only he could see the stars in the city. The light pollution sees that to be false, as it blocks off the stars, even at midnight. It was only on vacations to other places where he could see the stars.

 

It was also how he got his cutie mark. One day, his class had a field trip to Ponyville, where they looked at the stars through telescopes. While he was looking, Solar found a hidden constellation which no one could ever find, or at least record it. And thats when it happened, the star appeared on his flank. 

 

As he was thinking about this, he quietly sighed, and put his computer away. He took out a book, one of the few he brought with him, and read it. The Constellations of Equestria, it was called. Written by an old unicorn, who shared the same interest as Solar himself. He flipped to page one, and started to read.

The pizza got here, and Solar went downstairs to retrieve it. When he got back up, most ponies seemed tired already. He then noticed he himself was getting pretty tired. He took the box of pizza and offered it to everypony.

"Here you go guys," Sokar said. " And if you don't mind, I'm gonna go to sleep. I'm awfully tired."

Solar walked to his room, closed the door, and slept peacefully, knowing he would probably wake up early in the morning.

(( No, no, no

1. The pizza will get there in much longer then one post. I'll decide when it comes. Don't rush things

2. Unless you want to wait a really long time, I wouldn't put solar to sleep, because it's not even 6 yet. It's late fall, so the sun goes down earlier then usual ))

((Oh no the PIZZA Solar you nearly RUINED the RP! Oh no Solar went to SLEEP and can't WAKE UP AGAIN! You nearly RUINED the RP!))

 

((Basically Swim, we don't need all this micro managing right now. You should have said initially that you would decide when the pizza came if it would be such an inconvenience to the story. Also, just because Solar wants to sleep doesn't mean he won't wake up again or that somepony else can't "accidentally" wake him up.))

 

Still asleep, Prissy inaudibly yawned and smacked her lips. She wiped a fleck of dust from her nose then huffed and rolled over, curling up a little bit for warmth.

(( I'll decide what this roleplay needs, because Im the GM. If that's a problem, find another roleplay. That's simple. I'm not getting angry or anything, I'm just stating things how they are.

You didn't need to be so nasty about it, and you haven't been nearly active enough in here so far to decide what should be done

I'm waiting on you, Avi, and as for you Solar, please just change the post ))

Suddenly, Prissy sneezed loudly and shot up, casting a glowing ball of light that flew into the wall opposite her and dispersed into a hundred tiny shimmering sparks, with colours off all the rainbow. To get her bearings, she looked around for a moment, appearing slightly dazed. A couple of new faces were in the room, she recognised the nice pony from before though.

 

"Sorry," She said, timidly. The mare lifted a hoof to her snout and rubbed it, her nose was very sensitive and this sort of thing wasn't uncommon. All that she hoped was that it wouldn't become too much of a nuisance, it would be an awful thing to wake others up at night because of it.

 

Twinkle figured it wasn't worth getting back to sleep, now. She had calmed down from her previous state of stress and it looked like there was some introducing to do, so she may as well get down to it. As she swung herself off of the couch, she yawned then as soon as she was stood up she stretched out like a cat with an even bigger yawn than before. Glancing to her stuff by the door, she decided that once she knew everyone she'd go and choose a room.

 

So, number one - introductions, get to know everyone. Two - choose a place to sleep, organise yourself. Three - ... Hmm. Three would present itself later, it seemed. With her list in her head, Prissy stepped up to the pony nearby the couch. This pegasus had a brown pelt and orange mane, with a scroll for a cutie mark and red wing tips. She glanced briefly into her or his eyes to get their attention, smiling.

The bright explosion threw Orbit off, briefly disorientating him and jolting him from his thoughts. Shaking his head to steady himself, he blinked several times, only to see the mare who was previously asleep on the couch staring directly at him. 

 

Trying to keep up with the sudden influx of events, he blinked again, flapping his wings.

 

"Uhh..."

 

Why was she smiling at him? Almost shrinking a little under the gaze, Orbit tentatively lifted a hoof in greeting.

 

"...hi?"

Prism's smile widened. She was meeting somepony! Feeling somewhat accomplished, she took his hoof and shook it. "I'm Prism Twinkle. Nice to meet you."

Orbit nodded slightly, still slightly dazed. Not sure how to react, he nodded again, attempting both at the same time to avoid eye contact but maintain it for fear or being rude.

 

"I'm...Orbit." He managed to squeak. Being forced into conversation was almost as bad as initiating it. "High Orbit."

"Wow," Prissy began, "That's a pretty cool name. Well, hi Orbit!" She smiled, then accidentally let out a squeaky giggle at her little pun. To show she didn't mean anything maliciously, she covered her mouth and apologised through her hoof, "Sorry." 

 

"What do you do then, Orbit?" She looked at his cutie mark again. "Hmm... Organisation?"

"No, it's ok-" Orbit raised a hoof to speak, before placing it back down sheepishly, deciding to answer the following question posed by the mare. "It's... not the first time."

 

In fact, it had been quite a while since anypony had used that pun, to be frank.

 

He glanced down at his Cutie Mark. "Well..." How should he put this? It wasn't a conventional job, for sure, and ponies would be sure to ask, but- 

 

"I... I guess you could say I work in... spellwriting?"

"Spellwriting? But you're a pegasus, how does that work?" Prissy raised an eyebrow and moved her mouth into an n-shape. "You can't cast spells."

Orbit nodded. There it was, the question that everypony asked.

 

"It's... true I cannot cast spells like unicorns..." he said, mentally flipping through the countless times he had gone through the same thing, over and over. "But... one doesn't have to be a unicorn... to write the framework that spells are... cast upon."

 

He sighed, looking down. "Perhaps I should... have been born a unicorn, but... this is who I am." He glanced at the mare. "And I can say I've... never looked back."

 

He ruffled his wings, hesitant to share more. Changing the topic, he decided to lob the same question back at the mare.

 

"And... you? What do you... work as?"

While reading his book, Solar noticed the conversation happening outside his room. He put his book down, and walked out, curious. If they were talking about spell making, especially Orbit making spells, which Solar thought would not be as logical as a unicorn making spells, since unicorns could test themselfs. But Solar had an idea, which could even lead to a better friendship between the two.

 

"Hey, Orbit! I was listening to your conversation while reading in the other room, and I thought to myself. 'Well, Orbit might need a unicorn to test out his own spells.' So, what I'm trying to say is that you might need a subject to cast your created spells," Solar said, a bit worried he might say no, "And perhaps, if we could make a new spell, we could show it to certified unicorns, and it could even be a spell which gets taught in school! For unicorns!"

 

Solar was a bit eager. He wanted to make more friends, esspecially these ponies, since he was going to live with them for Celestia knows how long.

 

"So, what do you say?" Solar asked.

"hm.. Let me go check." Autumn said to the mare. She trotted over to each room, peaking inside all.
"they are pretty basic, a cupboard, and a bordered bed."
((I'm actually unsure what would go in one of these apartments... I mean, where I live, you get it bare... Then you fill it yourself.. And idk the details either very well))
"a double bedroom, two singles, and a king bed, each in a different room..."
((I wouldn't expect two strangers to sleep together on that king bed... Or is a king bed two beds put together...?))
"I'm going take the double. Anyone else, just put your stuff in there. Now, does anybody want to get some dinner?"
((I guess we can join tude if he would like, it hasn't been very long rp-wise))

Mae raised her head, then stood up "I'm hoping you don't plan on taking an entire double bedroom to yourself, that's just silly"

 

She poked her head inside the rooms after Autumn "Huh. Don't remember seeing rooms this bare since Angus moved in..." She paused after that, as if thinking, then said "Dinner sounds good. What kind of dinner we talking about?"

"oh I didn't mean it like that. I meant someone can share with me."
"I'm not sure.. There was a griffin who just left before for food. It's up to you guys though for what to eat."
