(Hmm. Well they sound interesting. I can't wait to see 'em!)

(Hey. Is Torrent still at the Huntress fortress?)

(Nah. Trinity left him at Dusk. But since she's connect to TorchWick, she portaled to her when sh!t hit the fan.)

(I hope so! I've got a few new and a few babies in progress...)

(Ok!)

Ruff comes screaming in behind Glory! Pinning her into the desk that crumbles under her force!

Omen leaps over the pony. Landing just ahead of Strike. His horn high and sparking red.
He sees the door kicks it open

(Aaay! Can't wait to see them)

MorningGlory growled, putting all four hooves on Ruff, throwing her off.

" Get her out of here! " Silent said to Trinity. She took a leaping strike at Glory, only to be kicked across the face. Before Strike even hit the ground she was slammed into the wall by the throat, Glory choking her.

Trinity gathered TorchWick and left, in no shape to run, but not caring.

" You two?! Oh, this will be fun. " Glory grinned, knowing fully well GrimOmen and SilentStrike were outmatched.

Ruffled however would be the thorn in her side.
" Scream for help.. I dare you... " She choked SilentStrike, ripping her mask off. Strike's face was turning colors, as she whimpering desperately...

"Hooves off of her!" Omen says. Flames shooting from his horn!

Ruff coughs to reclaim her breath.
She shakes it off. Mumbling a thanks for Trinity's help.
She dashes to Glory. Reaching her at the same time as Omen. Both clobbering her on either side!

MorningGlory cries in pain from the flam magic, and lets out a loud grunt as Ruffled nails her. She's battered left before being thrown right, tumbling. She stands, shaking but not defeated.
Striker falls to the ground in a pile, motionless.

" You can't stop me.. You can't stop any of us! Not w-when the glory of our master leads us! " She laughed, sounding derranged almost.

Glory charged forward, headbutting Omen, striking him ruthlessly in his legs, as if trying to break them. Before smacking Ruffled more out of spite. " Come on, Ruff! You can be so much more.. You could be on the winning side for once. " She said. Blood dripping from her nose.
Fur singed slightly on one side.

Her scarf lost during all the fighting.

" We'll be heros among the Eclipse! Think about a world where if we win this for DeadBite and Void... We can have anything we want... " She smiled ear to ear.

(We can up the intensity and throws Dawn into the secondary RP spot?

TwistedWish, Eon, BlackGrove, RegalTorrent and DarkScroll are all there so the Eclipse are either very ballsy or very stupid for that plan. xD)

(Let's do it! You start.
And they are f.ucked with all the ops there!)

Ruff's brow knits deep.
"I already have and am everything I want. A hero stopping evil for my true love." She snorts. Wings spread and tail hiked.

Grim snorts.
Using his magic to weigh down Glory. Pinning her magically in place.

(They really are just- fu.ckin dead. x'D DeadBite's pride and personal grudge against Scroll has come back to bite her.)

DuskStrider, the young deerpony in the Huntresses Vanguard had given her warning to Eon.
Between her and Twisted, Dawn's military, which was in better shape than Dusk's still, redied for a defense.
BlackGrove even stepping up to defend their home.
DarkScroll trotted to the front lines, looking back at Eon. " We are ready. " He said, stern and determined as ever.
Twisted smiled, proud of the young stallion for coming so far.
" Will RegalTorrent be assisting us? Or is he staying in Dusk should they attempt to trick us and hit where we're weak? " Scroll asked Eon.

MorningGlory faught against Omen's magical grip. She laughed, eyes on Ruffled. " But do you have power..? " Her eyes went wide. Something wrong with them...

She was stubborn, and no doubt pushing Omen's magic to a limit.
" You don't have the guts to finish this. Coward. " Glory mocked Ruffled, stalling.

"I don't know about help.... That sea snake said he was staying behind. But I don't trust him." the bat alicorn says. Eyes forward and determined.
"I asked SilentPrincess to watch him."
Her eats point forward. She's unarmored and without a weapon. Breeze blowing through her stark white mane

Omen grunts... not wanting to say aloud his power was tapping.
He plants his hooves harder.

"Shut up!" the hot head yells kicking into Glory's ribs!

TwistedWish had recently had armor made for him. Almost menacing, and in usual Dusk colors. A strange blade to his side. DarkScroll drew his blade, hearing hoofsteps approach in the early morning fog.
Through the trees, he could make out the sillhouettes of monsters... Void's beasts.
Leading them was DeadBite, and a group of Eclipse followers.
" A pleasure to see you again, DarkScroll. " She grinned.

Scroll's eyes were filled with rage, but he stayed put. " I can't say the same for you... " He growled.

Walking up beside DeadBite, was an almost elegant looking pony. A stallion. Though corrupted by Void's magic.. Black viens crawling up his lags.

DarkScroll's eyes widened. " No... "

DeadBite gave him a devilish look. " Didn't you miss your dear, sweet, SilverShield..? " She mocked...

(Cue, All Things Must Die)

Glory caughed violently.
Giving Omen a break, as she was no longer fighting against his magic anymore.

" You're afraid... " Glory continued to mock. " She's dead, RuffledLace... You s-saw her.. " She chuckled. Trying to get in her head.

Eon holds her breath, looking to Scroll.
"It's not him Scroll! It's just a replica!" She says flying to his side!

"NO! You're wrong!" She keeps kicking and starts stomping....

Omen runs over. Pulling her back!

DeadBite grins. " Oh, but that's where you're wrong, Eon... It is him. Flesh, blood, fur... It's him... " She put a hoof under Shield's chin.
SilverShield's blank expression told Scroll he was under Void's influence in it's very early stages.
Whatever this was, it was recent...

" I had to prod my master for so long to ressurect him... just so I can watch him kill you... " She grinned at Scroll.

Scroll darted toward the two, blade drawn. " This is my fight! Deal with the rest! " He ordered Eon.

DeadBite's jaw unhinged, letting out a blood curdling sound and her forces charged.

Twisted looked at Eon and nodded, staying by her side, charging foraward.

At one point, MorningGlory had stopped resisting.
She was a bruised and beaten heap on the floor. Still alive. Barely.
The fighting outside had subsided at some point as an Eclipse soldier signaled for a retreat.

However, the Huntresses didn't take kindly to being attacked in their own home.
Pegasus were shot down and every entrance was blocked.

It was not pretty, but they had all proven that they were true warriors. The remaining Eclipse were forced into a circle in the courtyard, and sure enough, TorchWick was there with Trinity.

" WHERE IS THE TRAITOR?! " Wick's voice called. She had never sounded so furious...
Bandaged up but still very wounded, she looked up at the tower from far bellow.

"He's not thinking clearly...." She says looking at Twisted and Grove.
"COVER ME!" She springs forward on Scroll's heels!

Omen stood in the window. Panting from his exhertion.
"Ruffled... Strike!" He runs to her side.

Ruffled bites Glory's neck nape. Dragging her to the window.
"HERE SHE IS!" She yells between clenched teeth

BlackGrove towered over both of them. He nodded, meeting a monster head on, grappling with it.
Twisted drew his blade, using a combination of weaponry and magic to fight, keeping monsters off Eon.

Scroll stomped a hoof, glaring at DeadBite.
" Time to finish what I started. " Bite cackled.
Scroll gasped, taken by surprised by the possessed SilverShield. " Shield! " Scroll perried his attacks. " This isn't you! You have to-... rgh- " He hit him with the hilt of his blade, making Shield reel back. " Snap out of i- " Scroll groaned, using the flat of his blade to hold DeadBite back.
Her hooves onnhis blade, trying to stomp him out. " Die already! He is mine now! And you're next.. " Her long, unatural tongue came close to his face.
" Shut up! " Scroll growled, slicing her tongue off.
" I will not let Dawn fall... I won't let you take SilverShield from me again... AND THIS IS NOT THE DAY I DIE! " He said, not giving into himself, or DeadBite.

Glory let out a moan of pain. Not getting up any time soon.

" BRING HER DOWN HERE! " TorchWick ordered.
It wasn't even the fact she had to shout to be heard from so far down.
She was just that enraged...

TorchWick looked at the remaining Eclipse fighters. Almost all of them the traitorous Huntresses, surrounded by their former sisters.

" I trained you all! I GAVE YOU ALL SECOND CHANCES! " Wick screamed at them.
" Wick... " Trinity tried to calm her down.
" IF YOU WANT TO PLAY THIS GAME, THEN PLAY IT WE SHALL! " Wick yanked a mare forward by her mane. Her horn popping and sparking with her magic.

" Wick, stop! " Trinity protested.

" THIS IS THE PRICE, FOR TREASON! " Wick threw the mafe face first onto an Eclipse blade. Going through an eye, out out the back of her skull.

Trinity grabbed TorchWick. " ARE YOU BLOODY INSANE?! " She shouted, knowing Wick was going too far.

Eon flies in under Grove's protection. Swooping into Bite, her horn goring into the monster's eye!

Regal slunk about the camp. His tail behind him like a snake tail

Ruff throws Glory down to Wicke!

Omen pulls Strike on his back and runs to the window! He uses his magic to catch the falling mare!
"Ruffled! This is crazy!"

DeadBite let out a roar in pain, biting at Eon.
" EON? " Scroll huffed.

DeadBite laughed, shaking it off. She cackled.
Scroll tilted his head, noticing something strange. Her Void magic mutations were-... reversing.
Slowly turning back into a normal pony.
At this, Scroll grinned almost evily. Stepping toward her, his and SilverShield's blade dragging at his sides.

DeadBite looked at her hooves. " Wha- What is this?! No! My power! What have- " She looked up at Scroll, whimpering as she realized her situation. The monsters even stopped fighting. Looking at her like they were hungry...

Behind Scroll, Void stood for a moment, staring at her. He trotted away, before others could notice, but Eon would have seen him...
He didn't seem hostile for some odd reason...

" Goodbye, DeadBite. " Scroll growled.

" What are you up to, Regal? " SilentPrincess sighed.

Bellow, TorchWick shoved Trinity away. The two glared at each other, then nodded at NightShade. " Kill them. " She said plainly, without care for any of the former Huntrsses anymore.
NightShade nodded. " Open fire. " She ordered all crossbow weilding ponies. And the group was shot down.

Huntresses gasped at the ruthlessness of their Grandmaster.

" TorchWick! Have you gone mad?! " Trinity snapped.
" No. I'm setting an example. If the Exclipse want to fu.ck with me in my home, I'll send them back the head of every soldier and traitor here... All Eclipse members are to be killed on site. " She ordered and limped away.

The Huntresses watching and standing guard all fell silent. Unsure what to say...

Eon saw Void.... seeing Bite's power evaperate.
She looks at the creature that is Bite.
Her wings flap and flies at her again!

Regal looks up.
"Questining me? I was checking to see it you'd set up any ACTUAL defences."

Scroll held both blades to her throat. Looking lick a giant pair of scissors.

SilverShield groaned, holding his head. Black vains vanishing, though not entirely.. " Wha-... Ngh.. " He passed out.

Scroll glared at DeadBite. " I'm not a monster like you... What re youe last words, DeadBite? "
She just snarled at him, about to jump up and kill him, taking advantage of his honor, not seeing Eon swooping in.

Void's monsters turned to dust, and the remaining forces surrendered, seeing DeadBite at the mercy of Scroll and Eon

(Was Glory shot? Omen was supending her with his magic)

Silent sighed. " I didn't. TwistedWish gave us about twelve soldiers should something happen. " She answered, looking around the camp. She looked up at Regal. " How come you're not asleep? " She asked, curious.

Eon smashes through the monster's head! Gore splattering all over them all.
"You had a chance...."
She looks at Scroll.
"Are you ok?" She keeps an ear out for Grove

(No, Glory's still up in the tower with Omen, n Striker. Wick ordered the traitors they rounded up in the courtyard to be executed. Glory's the only one left.)

(Proper character privlages. xD)

"Was I.... supposed to be?" he asks twirling a hoof with a cocky smile.

(Ok!)

Omen rests her gently to the ground.

Ruff spots him.
"No! What are you doing!?" she pulls his tail making him yelp and stand.
"What's gotten into you?!" he steadies Strike on his back

(SHI-HI-HIIIIIT! I thought my execution was going to be brutal!)

Scroll stood, a bit startled by the explosion of gore. He looked at Eon, blood splattered and nodded. " Yes... I'm fine.. " He gasped. " SilverShield! "

BlackGrove approached, not sure what was going on.
Twisted gasped. " By the gods, it's actually him... "

Scroll held him. " He's corrupted still... We need to clense this magic! " He panicked.

" Scroll, breath. He'll be okay. We'll help, we promise. " Twisted assured him.

From the distance, Void watched. Eon specifically.
It was unnerving, but it was strange.
It felt more like being watched by a curious creature, than something supposedly evil.

Eon was going to speak.... but stopped when looking at the creature.
"Scroll, Grove. Start for Dawn. Perhsaps... perhaps Princess can help." h
she says. Eye locked with Void...

(Eon takes no prisnors)

SilentPrincess rolled her eyes. It's four in the morning. Typically, yes. " She said, sitting next to a camp fire burning. Shivering slightly.

---

From below, Trinity sighed. Opening a portal and appearing next to RuffledLace.
" How are you all holding up? " She asked.

SilentStrike was alive, but in rough shape on Omen's back.

Trinity glanced at Glory, disgusted. " I'll have Huntresses take her to the prison bellow the tower until we figure out what to do with her. " She said more to herself than anyone else.

Void stared. Single eye blinking.
The dripping, black strands of "Void" magic were gone.
He stared at her, tilting his head like a curious dog. And began to walk away.
Something was different.

" Grove, take Scroll and Shield back to Dawn. Tell SilentPrincess at the camo to wrap it up and head back too. I need to stay with Eon and tend to our forces. " Twisted said.

Grove nodded. " Yeah. Be careful you two... " He said. Looking at Eon when he said that..

Omen pushes past Ruffled to Trinity. "Strike.... she's not well..." he says to her.

Ruff looks at Trinity.
"Prison? She's a traitor!"

"Huh... well. In the deep ocean you loose track of time. I guess I'm not ajusted." he looks at her shiver.
"Cold?" he spins his hoof. The fire dancing warmly around Princess

" Get her to the medical wing. We have our medics tending wounds. Doctors from Canterlot will arrive within the our. " Trinity told Omen. " Hey... " She stopped him before he left. " You did good.. Inferno has a good leader looking after them.. " She gave him a soft smile.

Trinity sighed, looking at Ruffled. " Yes. And we're not monsters or mercenarries. She will recieve a fair trial when the time is right. " Trinity growled. "

Silent looked at the curious magic, surprised. " I-.. thanks.. " She said, glancing up at him. She was warry, but he didn't seem all that bad.
" How are you adjusting? "

Eon nods.
She flaps over to the creature....

Void stopped, slowly turning to look at her. It looked at Eon curiously.
The peaceful sounds of the forest in the mornings replaced the sound of battle now. The fog still hanging in the air.
He didn't seem hostile..

Ruffled snorts.
"The others were exicuted..." She says.

Omen smiles... encouraged by Trinity.
He gallops to the wing

"It's.... strange. I'm not so used to solid earth beneath my hooves." he comes to the fire. Tail beside him.
Orange light casting over him

"You... you are.... Void?" Eon asks it. Head high and wings back. Ready in case it got nasty

Trinity thumps Ruffled's chest with a hoof.
Trinity, still looking just as battered as Wick.
" I didn't order that. YOUR fu.cking hot headed wife did. " She groans. " So don't take that tone with your leader. Understood? " She huffed.
Trinity was second in command to the Grandmaster. But she was the leader of the Vangaurd...
And she wasn't happy with any of this from either side.

SilentPrincess, noticing the black spot on his chest vanishing. She wanted to mention it, but she wanted to get to use this moment to get to know him more. " I would imagine it'd be difficult to get use to. " She nodded. " Have you enjoyed getting to see the world on land? "

Ruff pants.
"Are you SERIOUS? Ypu're mad at US? They BETRAYED US." She barks

Regal hadn't noticed his mark lifting.
"Well. Not as entralling if I wasn't being forced." he snarks

Void nodded. Sitting down.
He blinked again, before speaking. His voice sounded strange, but not as-... off as it had before.
" Are you the alicorn by the name of Eon? "

Eon's ears come forward. Her stance unchanging as she stayed on edge.
"Aye. That is me." She says

" I'm not happy with any of this, RuffledLace! " Trinity groaned. " There is a way to handle these things. We only kill if we have to. " She huffs. " What Wick did was uneccesary... "

Princess made a face. One ear up, one down. " Doesn't it make you feel-... better, though? Having a chance to make things right? "

" Greetings. " Void bowed his head.
" Why am I here? " He asked.
The question seemed so-... innocent. He sounded confused.

"O? And you'd have packed them all in the cells while our sister's blood is spilled onto the floor!" She yells back!

Regal lifts a brow.
"O yes. What a differance." he says sarcasstic.
"Here.... not doing anything. Dry." he says looking back to the fire

"I was about to ask you." she trots around it. Looking just as perplexed

TrinitySpark glared at her.
The tone in her voice would chill anyonento the bone.
" Go to your quarters, RuffledLace... " She said, trying to let her off easy. Know she was frustrated and upset.

" Well at least you tried to... " She mumbled.

Ruff sighs. Her chest shaking....
She flies down the window

Regal looks at her.
"Well.... I suppose. And, what of you? You are no ordinary mare." he points out

Void watches her for a moment, before examineing himself. " I no longer feep a connection to the tome... I think it's magic has finally died. I feel strange... " Void looked at his hooves, then back at Eon. " I feel free... " He lays down in the grass. " Though so weak... "

(Colors fu.cked me oveeeer)

(O frick Colors!)

"Are you not the tome's magic?" She asks. Relaxing slightly

" No I'm not.. " She answered, watching the fire. Lying down.

"Ah. Descriptive. Please, so many details!" He feins a faint next to Silent

In Ruffled's room, TorchWick lay on her bed. Bandaged in about four different places.
She was bruised and looked very tired.

Want to see what I have of Needle yet?

Ruffled runs to her side.
"Wicker!" She runs to her lady!

Void nodded. " A physical manifestation. Magic given flesh and blood. Though I have used much of it. I no longer feel it's evil. I feel no desire to consume others life as I did in my old state. " Void spoke.
" I feel-... lost... " He said.

" You are such a brat.. " Silent rolled her eyes.

---

TorchWick hugs her, letting out a pained groan. " Okay-.. gentle.. Mmmhhh... " She lay beside Ruffled on her bed. " I'm glad you're okay... " Wick kisses her. Smiling slightly.

(SURE)

Lol. Ok. I'll post what I got so far real quick

Eon nods.
"Ok.... Ok. Let's get you to the village." She says

Ruff kisses back. Her eyes wet with tears.
"You keep scarring me..." she says.

Regal can't help but scowl.... with a chuckle.
"O am I? If I'm such a brat, perhaps you should tell me a story about ypurself?"

(FU.CK YOU COLORS!)

(I'm glad you like him! Hopefully his pallet works out.
I was hoping he could be the royal funeral director/tailor?)

Void stands. " If I may... I would preffer to be on my own... I know I'm not a normal pony. I would just like to figure out who I am now that I'm no longer a puppet. " He said, looking at her. " If that is fine with you. "
---

Wick chuckled slightly. " Comes with the job.. " She ran a hoof through her mane, nuzzling her.

(Oooo! I'm okay with that)

Ruff cuddles into the bed with her love.
"Yeah.... but..." she puts their forheads together.
Her big blue eyes on her.

Eon nods.
"I suppose I couldn't stop you." she says

(Yay!
I am planning to draw the triplets of Neon and Amp)

" I'm a 610 year old princess from Astera, which is a kingdom full of monsters, moster hunters, and I fu.cked TwistedWish when he was possesed imstead of helping him, got pregnant, abandoned my foal, and exiled myself in a magical forest that I can take you to in my dreams. " She looked at him. " Not so happily ever after... " She smiled sarcastically. " Happy? "

(Aww! Finally!)

(TvT I know! I'm going to do some genetic randomize them a bit.)

"O.... that is a real twist. I did not see that coming...." he says sitting up.
"Is that true?" He slinks closer....

Wick kisses her, slowly down her neck to her chest. " I'm still alive right? " She chuckled.
---

" Thank you... I wish you luck, Eon. And your brother. " Void bowed his head.

SilentPrincess got up, trotting back to her tent. " Hhh... yes... "

" Sister! I need your help! " BlackGrove galloped up with SilverShield on his back.
DarkScroll with him.

Silent sighed. " What- Oh! Oh dear... " She looked startled seeing the corrupted pony.

Ruffled chuckles. "You feel alive...." she says carassing her face.

Eon flaps her wings.
"I'll stay in touch...."
She flies back to the others

Regal looks up.
"O.... that looks... unfortunate." he slinks along

(Sorry! I got to go!)

" I need your help to purify him. I don't trust my magic to help yet. " Grove said.
" It is. " Grove huffed.

(Bye Wolf!
It was great getting to RP again)

FLOOOOOOOF!

Regal sits up. His long tail slithering under him.
"Purify?" his gaze locked on this new alicorn!

(Hey Wolfers!)

Floofers! *spins*

TorchWick smiled softly at her. " I'm glad you're okay... " She said softly.

---

Void watched her leave, before turning, and taking off at a gallop to figure out who he wanted to be...

TwistedWish was helping with the wounded when he heard Eon's strong wingbeats approach. " Eon. Is everything alright? " He asked, not sure why she took off.

(How are you doin'?
Omg, CrossNeedle looks great)

Eon landed near her brother.
"I.... am unsure. Twisted, did you ever.... meet the book?" she asks softly.

Ruffled smirks.
"So.... what's the damage? How bad are you?" she asks worried

(I'm glad you like him! I worked really hard on his design. TvT)

SilentPrincess could already sense the remnants of Void magic on SilverShield. " It's fading. This shouldn't take long. " She assured Grove and Scroll.
She nodded at Regal, hooves on either side of Shield's head, closing her eyes.
She spoke slowly and softly, trying to focus. " Yes... Between me, my brother, Eon and TwistedWish, we all have the ability to purify certain-... unatural, magical illnesses. " She said.

SilverShield looked so tired. Innocent as ever. Scroll could tell he was resisting the magic's incluence.

"Interesting...." the sea wizard all but hisses in delight as he watches...

Eon watches Princess... but also Scroll... worried for him if something should turn sour...

Twisted thought. " If I have, then it was briefly. " He sighed. " With everything that's happened, I can't remem-... " He looked at her. In a flash of magic, he held the tome.
The vile binding and pages of the book began to fall apart. " I don't-... sense it's magic anymore. " He looked stunned.
A fleshy page fell out, instantly turning to dust as it his the ground.

---

Wick sighed. " Head, and face injury.. " She pointed to her face, knowing it was most obvious. The bandage covered her eye. " Trinity helped SilverSky stitch up a wound that almost did me in. " She pointed to her midsection. Entirely wrapped up.
" Stab wound to the right leg. Two more to my left flank and leg.. " She told her, grinning slightly. " Dam.ned if I didn't put up a fight though. "

Ruff winces with every description.
"Geez... They leave anything untouched?" she strokes through Wicke's tossed mane.

Eon stands... stunned. Looking back to Twisted.
"Wh... what can that mean...?" she asks... her legs... shake

(Fu.ck you too, Colors)

Lol. Colors, at it again

" Don't get any ideas... " BlackGrove stood between his sister and Shield, and RegalTorrent. Not trusting him. He towered over everyone there.

" Relax... I need everypony calm... " Silent said, eyes still closed.

Slowly the black veins were beggining to vanish. Until Shield let out a tired sigh. No longer twitching and fighting the magic.

Scroll sighed, lying by his side. Head, gently on chest. " Thank you, Silent... "

She nodded, up at the others.
Twisted dropped the tome, letting it burst into a cloud of dust. " I think-... we can all finally get some well deserved rest. " Twisted said, smiling slightly.

Wicked, trying her best to take her mind of her pain, and everything else, jokingly answers with, " Well, I can think of one place. " She chuckled.

Eon... doesn't look as relieved...
"Yes... of course. Relief. The evilis gone. I suppose... there will be only peace now...." There is no twist in her voice. But her pupils keep shaking...

Regal chortles deep and cocky.
"O, don't mind me. Just admiring your work." he says not backing down from the imposing alicorn

Ruff busts out a laugh!
"You sure? They got you everywhere else." she teases

(Colors why)

Grove and Twisted both look at Eon.

" You don't look very sure. " Twisted says.
Grove shuts up, letting Twisted do the talking.

Shield stands with some help from Scroll. " I think we're going to go... I think everypony needs some rest after this morning. " Scroll said.
Shield, still so out of it, he didn't even recognize anypony. Vission blurred and hearing still a little off.

Eon shakes it off.
"Yes. Please do Scroll. And Shield... Rest. You both deserve it.
She backs up, meeting her brother's green eyes.
"It's fine. This is a happy moment. I... I just need to clear my head..."
She flies off into the waning light...

Regal watches it all.
"Hmmmmm..." his ears flatten

(Colors says 'Not today!')

Wick gives her a face, grinning slightly. " I think I'd know if they did. " She goes to hoof her shoulder but whines in pain for so much as lifting her leg. " Nnngh.. I think we all need to lay low for the next few days.. " She smiled bittersweetly. " But-... that means I get more time with you. " She smiled softly.

---

SilentStrike grumbled, putting a hoof to her throat. She let out a squeak, and instantly shut up, taking her hoof away.

NightShade was in her room, mask still on. She nudged Omen. " Wake up, big guy. " She said, pointing a hoof at SilentStrike who lay on her bed.

(O hey! I wanted to bring up something kinda important!)

(Apparently!)

Omen sits up.
"Strike!" He dashes to her side! Fussing over his mare.
"Strike, you're awake. Are you in pain? I could adminster you some releavers..."

Ruff stands up. Tucking Wicker in.
"Silver lining. But for now my kicka$$ bride better rest up before you're one whole bruise. K?" she nips the blancket. Tucking it gently around her shoulders

(Oh? What is it?)

As Scroll and Shield return home,
Twisted, Grove and Princess watch Eon take off.

Twisted's ears flatten.

" I uhm-... I should go talk to her. " He flies off after her.

SilentPrincess sighs, looking at Regal. " Something wrong? " She asks

Striker pointed at her neck, and the bruising there. " I-... " She squeaked. Speaking as softly as possible. " I-It hurts... " She answered.
NightShade stood, trotting up. Her own wound treated as well. " Rest up. " Was all she said, leaving them be.
---

Wick snuggled Ruffled. " Oh fine.. " She gave her a sweet look.

Regal shakes his head.
"O... nothing. Just a bad feeling all of a sudden..." he slinks along.

Eon flies into the woods... aiming for the area that was blackened by Grove...

Ruff grins.
"Aw! Don't want a bed time story?" she teases more.

Omen nods, resting his horn on her neck and warming it to sooth the ache.
"Better?" he asks.
"O NightShade! Are you better? I know my... help was pretty rough. It won't scar will it?" he asks apologetically

Grove follows her.
The area affected by Grove was slowly fading. Turning back to it's lush green color.
Though a large area was still under his influence.
Grove followed her, landing behind her. " Eon? Is everything alright? " He asked, sounding worried about her.

(Well, I wanted to ask about the nekos)

Eon jolts! She hadn't expected to be followed!
She spins around. Her eyes... a little wet.
"BlackGrove! I... what are you doing here? Me... I..." she looks away from him.... at the black curling grass

" You offering? " She says, nose to nose with Ruff.

---

" You did what needed to be done. It'll heal over time and if it scars, then it scars. " Sne said. The X of her mask only visible through her mane, barely looking back at him. Her voice was emotionless... Simillar to the mask she wore. " ... Thank you. " She said, leaving them.

Striker, though still in pain found it much more bareable. " Thanks... " She sighs. " I know NightShade seems cold, but she's just been through a lot. I think she's still getting use to being on a team that actually cares about her. " Strike told Omen. Putting a hoof on his chest. " ... I love you.. " She smiled sweetly. Glad that they were both okay.

(What about the nekos?)

Omen sighs. Holding her hoof with his own.
"And I love you too..." He seems distracted though... in thought...

Ruff shakes her head sticking her tongue out!
"Ew, no! I'm terrible at that $hit!" she says waving a hoof!

(Well. Only using them for non canon?)

(Colors keeps fu.cking me over)

BlackGrove stepped closer. " I wanted to make sure you were okay. You seem a bit-.. off. " He said, large dragon like wings folded to his sides.

(COLORS! Why u so mean tonight?! HUH?!)

(What do you mean?)

Eon doesn't shy from his monsterous presance.
"I... it's just..." She sighs.
"Huh... am I so easy for you to read?" she says with a defeated smile

(I mean if we choose to play around with the nekos we can without it being story grounded or based. ^v^
We hardly ever use them for RPs or anything.
And I'm not griping about it. It's just been on my brain to fix the nagging on my heart)

Striker pats the spot next to her. " Something on your mind? "

---

Wick laughs. She leans in, kissing her. " But you're pretty da.mn good at that.. " She holds her close, despite her wounds screaming at her to stop moving.
She just wants Ruffled close.

(I mean I'm always fine with AU stuff.
I just need to be told what we're doing if we have a story cause I'm unfamilliar with what to do with them otherwise. I'm fine with story, I'm just not the best one to come up with that stuff for the nekos.)

Grove gave her a sweet smile back. " No... You're not. But something seems to really be bothering you now.. " He got close to her. Eyes locked on hers. He had forgotten how beautiful she was... It had been so long..
" You-... " He bit his lip, blushing. His mouth moving faster than his brain. He laughed sheepishly.
Still a big, loveable dork at heart..

Omen nods. He climbs in beside her.
"Yes.... all of this. All this violence..." he says closing his eyes.

Ruff climbs in with her.
"Stop moving! I swear I SEE your insides ajusting." she says settling up next to her all lovey dovey

(And I know that. And I know you don't prefer to draw them too. Lol.
It's my thing and I'm glad you stroke my ego for it. But I don't want to force it. It made us fight. I'd like to take it away)

Her ears flatten as she looks at him side long.
"Grove? What is it?" she lifts her head... the wind tossing her hair and making it glimmer in the light.
She couldn't help but enjoy him. He was so easy to be around. Familier... where everything changed, he didn't. Even now. With his body altered. He was somehow the same...

Striker nuzzled Omen. Cuddling the larger stallion. Face in his chest fluff. " It's all over now.. " She says, kissing his cheek.

---

TorchWick squeezes Ruffled, smiling happily. " Alright, alright. I just-... miss being this close to you.. " She said, letting herself be vulnerable around Ruffled. " It's nice.. "

(Do what you want.
I'm fine with whatever. You know I don't have a problem with them but- *Shrugs* Whatever floats your rootbeer!)

BlackGrove gave her a shy, almost cornered look. " I-... You-.. I forgot how beautiful you were... " He answered honestly. Smiling slightly, nervously.
" And I-... I missed hearing that voice.. "

Lace hugs her close.
"It is.... almost... like nothing else is around us..." she lets Wicker lay her head back on her shoulder.

Omen doesn't seem as sure.
"MorningGlory..... she was imprisoned. She's a traitor..." he says coldly

Eon blushes brightly!
"Beautiful... voice? I... Grove. Did you loose all you're sesnses in that book..." She says shyly. Trying to retain her hard alicorn extiereior.
(CAN NOT SPELL TONIGHT)

(I know you don't. And I GREATLY(can not words how much I really do) appreciate that you don't mind.
But I feel like the nekos is a bad ground for us is all.)

(Same though)

Grove shook his head. " I-... " For a moment, he thought she was being serious. Wondering how badly it did effect his mental state. No doubt it had it's effects... But he knew he was alright.
He grunted at himself. " No. I didn't. " He said, chest to chest with her, suddenly. " I'm sorry about all of this... None of this wpuldn't have happened if I had just thought, but-... Nothing changed how much I love you... " He said, clearly a bit nervous about admitting all of this.
Before he knew what he was doing, he leans down, kissing Eon...
It was genuine, even if it was unintentional...

(If you really do think it'll be better, I won't argue with that.
The last thing I want or need is fighting or drama or anything, so-)

Eon is in shock! Her ears back, wings straight and tail hiked!
What....was this?
Her heart was racing! And her emotions...
She wanted to be stronger... but... felt so weak at this moment. Melting into the kiss...

(>p<)

TorchWick slowly drifted off to a peaceful sleep with Ruffled...

---

Striker sighed. " She'll be dealt with propperly when the time comes. " She says, wanting Omen to relax. She snuggles him, lying on top of him now. " Come on big guy.. Lighten up. " She nuzzles him.

Grove couldn't help himself, and Eon wasn't exactly telling him to stop...
He leaned into the alicorn. He was passionate, wrapping his wings around her, holding Eon close...
Grove half expected her to throttle him by now.

Omen sighs... worried. But lays with Striker. At least he could be here with her.
"You REALLY should rest. I'm a trained medic. So I know this." he warns.

(Switch out Ruff and Wicker?)

Quite the opposite... Eon wrapped her wings around Grove's back in return!
Her tongue pushing into his mouth. Her body pressing his...

(Me @ Eon & BlackGrove: I SHIP IT SO HARD!

Maybe that's why she's so unhappy. She just needed some love. ... and probably something else if Eon doesn't tell him to slow down xD)

(I MEAN! Lol. She may just need it. I MEAN TO FEEL LOVED! 0///0)

BlackGrove eyes widen, surprised for a moment, but is quickly lost in Eon again.
Groves gets Eon on her back, resting in the cool grass. Not breaking the kiss any time soon.

Once he does, there's a trail of salive connecting their mouths at this point. He blushed brightly, smiling at her.
" I love you, Eon... " He said softly. His breathing heavy. A
bit-... excited..

(x'D YUP! THAT'S IT! TOTTALLY!
...
*Coughs*shewantsthatmonsterponed!ck*cough cough* ... *Throws self into and through corner*)

Eon holds her hooves around his shoulders.
"I... I love you too Grove..." her purple face flushed with red!

(IMEANITISCALLEDAMONSTERDICK!!!!
*throws self through corner after you)

(So I have two new pone ideas on top of everthing else. TvT)

SilentStrike rests her head on his chests and pounts. " But I am.. With you. " She says, giving him big, innocent eyes.
" Where did your mind go, mister? " She teased him.

(Swap, or just have the two going? Fine with me either way.)

(x'D
THERE'SAPARTOFHISBODYHE DIDN'TMINDBEINGMUTATED!
Youintosomekinkysh!t,Eon)

(We could swap them and have a new second branch with Black/Eon?)

(WHENYOULIVEASLONGASHER,YES!
Waggleseyebrowsunashamedly)

(Oh? Do tell)

Grove bit his lip, glacing back slightly. Tail flicking.
Eon would feel something rather-... large, between her legs...
He was already a massive pony, but the mutations seemed to have changed other things as well...

(I mean, fair enough x'D

Oh, double the Eon & Grove RP? Like a few days after kind of thing??)

(Like do the bang RP and a few days after the bang RP?)

(Well, I've been wanting to add a couple cops to HonorBond and VelvetMystery's police department.
A rough but good sherif.... and a dough ball beat cop)

(Sure! I can't complain with more Eon & Grove)

(Oooo! That's fun!)

Eon doesn't gasp... dead locked at the eyes.
Her leg traces up his hamstring.
"What? Waiting another five hundred years?" she cooes hautily. Her warm breath on his neck... Her tail curling back

(I waaaaaaant to! But I think I'll get mixed up. TvT)

(Yeah! I was thinking the chief could be this hard mare named HardKnocks)

(xD After they have their fun, we can always just continue with that)

BlackGrove looked a bit surprised. He grinned at her snark. " Hmhmm.. I missed you... " He said, kissing her neck.
He nipped at her shoulder, pushing slowly into Eon's v..
The large stallion was half inside before grunting. Hilting his co.ck deep inside Eon.

(Ooooo
She sounds cool)

Eon arches her back, pushing her body against him!
"Ahhhh! Don't,.. don't stop half... way!" She grunts. Her hooves digging in!

(Ok! Want to choose the second line?)

(Sure! Maybe Feather and Roast? Or someone else?)

Grove definately didn't. With a rough thrust, he gave Eon the rest of what she wanted. Grove, no longer holding back, pounded into Eon hard. Love biting at her shoulder and neck. He beat his wings as he gave it to the alicorn.

(Oh, or Abundant, Blessing's and Morgana?)

(Abundant, BLOOM and Morgana I meant)

Eon shudders as he fully enters her! Her own leathery wings flapping with his making a bit of a windstorm about them! Black leaves swirling around them.
She holds his head into her neck as she cooes. Her hips clapping to his...

(O! I'm not opposed to either.
I like them both.
I'll throw in some more options.
TangleRoot and CrossNeedle too. Lol)

(Oooo! TangleRoot and Violet?)

Grove grunted, leaving bite marks on Eon's neck. " S-sorry about that.. " He huffed.
Grove beat his wings, pounding into Eon.
His co.ck throbbed. Grove groaned, digging his hooves into the ground.

(You want to continue those two. >v0)

"For what? This?" the aliclrn gives a dark grin before sinking her bat pony fangs into the side of his exposed neck! A splurt of blood coating her lips warmly.
She holds his hips tightly to hers... her body shaking in excitement... almost vibrating...

(Yaaaas!)

DarkGrove huffed, eyes wide. Quite enjoying the bite from Eon...
He panted, giving Eon a few hard thrusts before finally filling the alicorn.. seed dripping down Eon's legs.
He slowed down, but he wasn't done yet...

(Lol. Perfect!)

Tangle holds Violet's neck to keep his balance. His sea horse tail wrapping the esrth pony's hind leg as they enter the fancy salad resturant.
"Ok. I can slip down here." he says softly."

Eon gives a batty scream! Her shriek strong enough st scare the nearby birds and bats off. Shaking the branches and dropping more black leaves on the love nest.
She backs up, keeping him inside her as she gives him that sauntry 'come hither' eyes.
She strokes his mane back... kissing him... pushing him onto his back...

Violet lowered himself closer to the ground to make it easier for TangleRoot.
He looked around curiously.

The pink stallion excited to try something new.

---

Grove huffed as he was put on his back. Taking a moment to catch his breath. It had been a long time since he's had this much fun...
He grinned at Eon. " Glad to see you're enjoying yourself. " He teased.

Eon touches their noses... sitting on his chest. Not his lap.... dripping warmly onto him.
"O? Go on..." she encourages

Tangle scoots into his side of the booth.
"Well. This exciting. I'm sorry I ran into you. But I am glad to meet you and have lunch with somepony new." he muses

Grove chuckled. His tail whipping back and forth. " Is there anything else I can do for you..? " He said, looking Eon up and down.

---

" I'm glad I got to meet you! I never thought I'd ever get to meet a sea pony. Not being able to breath underwater and all.. Heh.. " Violet said, giving him a sweet look.
The scent of flowers his Tangle's nose once again.

Tangled smiles softly.
"Well, here in Pearl City we're pretty common. I'm sure you'll meet many of us." he says. Breathing in the floral scent.

Eon grins toothily... Scooting toward his nose...

Violet has a sweet, curious look on his face. " I can only imagine what it's like living inmthe ocean. It must be so pretty. "

---

BlackGrove gave her a sly look. " Yeees..? " He teased.

FLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOF

(Hey, Wolfy!)

Tangle perks.
"Well, at the beach they sell temporary water breathing potions. I could give you an underwater tour." he inserts.

Eon holds his head.... sitting in Grove's face with a pleased grunt

TvT
I've put up sooooo many chats hoping to RP with you... Lol

(Hey, I can be up pretty late tonight! Want to do extra RPs?)

(Oh cr.ap! Sh!t, I didn't mean to miss 'em)

(Sure!)

(Is ok! We're here now and I'm stoked for it!

Yay! You want to pick two more lines?)

Violet looked up excitedly. " Really?! I would love to! "

---

Grove's face was bright red, but didn't hesitate nuzzling between her legs.. His tongue gently teasing her...

(Oh sure!
Haze n Lythal? and maybe Deranged & Devious?)

Tangle grins.
"Perfect! After we eat we can swim." he says as the food is delivered.

Eon arches. Her hooves at the back of his skull. Pushing him deeper. Her fangs glisten as she pants. A sliver of passionate drool dripping free

(Ok! You want to start them?)

Violet nods, excited to try so many new things. He takes his time, but is itching to see an underwater city.

---

Grove let out a quiet moan. His his muzzle between her legs. His hot breath on her... His tongue lapping her soft insides.

Tangle politely eats his strawberry and seaweed salad.
"Hmmm! So, what do you think so far?" he asks, feeling a little nervous with Violet... though he's not sure why...

Eon grinds on him slowly. Her wet insides dripping over his muzzle.
"G... Grove! Ah!" She spills a little more

(Okay!)

EerieHaze was at the shop alone, early in the morning. She sighed, messing with a drum set and checking a list she had made.
Her, Velvet and Autumn hadn't heard any news about Sinatra. The last time they did, it didn't sound good...

Haze let out a heavy sigh. Head resting on a drum. Sometimes she hated being the strong one...

---

It had been several days after the incident in Dawn. And news was spread throughout the outter kingdoms that thanks to great cooperation, and a surprising turn of events. The kingdoms were safe from the eevil forces of the void.

" Deranged! " Devious called excited, oppening the door to their hotel room.
EbonFang and LucidDreamer looked up at their mother, surprised by her excitement. Considering none of them did much smiling... Until now.

Deranged looked up. Both the foals resting with him on the bed.
"Devious? What is it?" He asked groggy.

Leathal taps the glass door with a hoof.
"Heeeeeelloooooo?!" He paces a bit. Used to her playfully locking the cheery stallion out

" It's really good! I've been looking forward to trying something new like this. " Violet answered. Happy to have a good tour guid and new friend.

---

Grove was loving it... Eon's pleasured cries was all he needed. He gently nipping at her. Moaning into the excited alicorn...

Devious shut the door and hugged all three of them. Teary eyed. " It's over! By the gods, it's finally over... " She said.

Ebon and Lucid were confused, but lovingly hugged her back.

---

Her ear perked. Slowly half glancing at the glass double doors. She let out another sigh.
It was almost a struggle to pull herself back onto her hooves.

She unlocked the door, letting Lyric in.
" Morning... " She said. With minimal enthusiasm. Even for her.

"D... don't stop!" Eon begs. Her tail lashing and her front hooves all but tap dancing on the back of his skull at this point... she was ready to burst...

Tangle finishes. His eyes keep lifting to his.
"You... ready?" he asks, ajusting his pearls

"O wow.... Have you been PRACTICING sounding unenthused?" Leathal teases, leaning in through the door with a half cocked head and smile.

Deranged looks about confused.
"Over? Just like that? Are you daft... there's no way..." the cynical unicorn says in denial

Lucky for Eon, Grove had no plan to.
The monster alicorn continued to eat out his beautiful lover...
His hooves dug into her flanks. Giving one of them a teasing rub.

---

Violet noticed he was acting a little strange. He smiled sweetly at him. Trying to be comforting in his own shy way.
He wondered if it was just social anxiety. Little did he know...

" Yeah! Thank you so much for doing this, TangleRoot. " He was so excited, he nuzzled him. Violet being a very affectionate pony to those who didn't talk down to him..

" Nope. Just comes naturally... " The goth mare said, trotting back to her spot, finishing up a display. She knew Leathal didn't know about Sinatra. Though, that didn't make her feel any better about anything.

---

This earned him a thump on the back of the head. " Yes! Just like that-... It's been almost three years we've heard Eclipse this, Eclipse that. Then Void happened and-... " She took a breath.
" Dusk and Dawn soldiers have been telling villages everywhere that there's no more threat. After everything, we can finally rest... Focus on them.. " She nuzzled Deranged, looking at Ebon and Lucid. Who were both in their own worlds.

Tangle beams red!
"I... I... no problem..." he rubs where he nuzzled him!

Eon showers him in her excitment....

(Poor Tangled. xD)

Violet prances ahead, looking bat at him. " Are you okay? " He asks. So caring...

---

Grove caught his breath, not minding getting messy...
His hot breath on her.
After a moment, he begins slowly lapping his tongue again. Deep inside Eon..

Deranged could hardly believe it... stunned stiff and silent.
No more threat.... even... to Lucid?" he said more hushed... recalling all who'd targeted her...

Leathal steps in... feeling her mood down to his bones.
"Hey, pretty mare like you shouldn't frown that hard. Hey, this make you feel better?" he levitates a box of cigerettes out of his scarf

Eon shudders!
"Hey! O! That tickles!" She flops back on his body in a flap of leathery wings!

(He has no idea yet!)
Tangle nods.
"I... yes! Sorry! I'm all fins today!" He scuttles along with the earth pony... that look melting him... but why did he-Tangle- melt to it so?

" All of it... It's all over... " Devious was resting on Deranged. Holding onto him. Nuzzling him affectionately. " It's finally over... and you're all safe... " She said, teary eyed. Kissing his cheek.

---

As much as Haze was trying to quite, she levitated them. Giving his a softer, more sad look. " Thanks... " She mumbled.
Realizing right then,she wasn't the strong one.

"Ok. So, what's wrong?" Leathal says. Sitting beside her. His warm kind blue eyes on her's.

Deranged gives her a loving kiss back. His chest holding her. He hugs her... hiding the single tear he's shed

Grove laughed. Giving her another teasing lick. " Oh really? " He continued, just to hear squirm. Which was surprisingly cute.
If Twisted ever found out about this, he was so dead... But he couldn't resist Eon. Glad that flame was still burning...

---

" Maybe you'll feel better back in the water? " Violet said. So innocent, and worried about him...

"Hey hey!" Eon squirms adorably! Her legs kicking, narrowly missing his head... she felt so odd... so warm and carefree...

Tangle nods.
"I hope... I do feel warm..." he feels his breath catch as they near the beach

EbonFang was curled up on a chair, fast asleep. Lucid, about to follow.
Deranged sank into him. She had missed his affection so much...

---

Haze took a breath before answering.
" A day or two ago now, Sinatra-... was attacked and tortured by somepony. Who-... I assume is MelancholyMelody. " She explained. " And he's-... dying... " She gulped. Not even bothering to pretend he'll be okay.

(Mhh, just you wait, Haze)

"Dying...." Leathal says... his face falling.
"O $hit... Haze... I'm so so sorry..." he hugs her to him supportive.

Deranged carasses her face.
"We need to find them a permanent home Sage..." e says hushed and fatherly

" Aww. Big bad alicorn sensitive down their? " He teased. All love though. He adjusted himself. gently rubbed Eon's pu.ssy with a hoof, kissing her. " ... I love you... so much.. " He said gently. His warm breath on her neck...

---

" Maybe you're not use to being on land for so long? " Violet followed him. Excited to go under the water's surface. Hooves sinking into the sand.

Haze hugged him. Teeth clenched. Tears beggining to roll down her cheeks. " Gods da.mn that little bast.ard... he never knew how much he was loved... why like this... " She choked out.
---

Devious felt safe for once. " We do... Where do we start? "

Eon gives a teasing coo growl... almost a purr as her v is pampered. Her glowing red eyes slightly narrowed.
"Yes... I can have sensitive bits...' She glassy eyes looks up at him...
"Love me...?" she says, deep in thought... almost in a fog.

Tangle can only agree.
He buys a beautiful blue potion. Small, barely a sip. But brims with bubbles that look like pearls.
"Here. This should assist you in underwater breathing." he says, lifting it to the sweet scented stallion

Leathal rocks her gently.
"He's not gone yet... you could tell him Haze. Nothing is stopping you..." he says in her ear.

Deranged nods mostly to himself.
"Somewhere safe and secretive... maybe... the villages. Dusk and Dawn. Ebon needs to be sheltered from his heritage. And Lucid will be near a stallion that can hel: her with her abilities." he says

(But why- do I want Eon n Grove to have a kid?)

He nodded. " I never stopped... " He wrapped his wings aroind hef.

---

" Thank you. " Violet bowed his head, examineing it curiously. Before finally drinking it.

(TvT O my gosh.... their potential kid though...)

Eon reddens... her eyes well with emotional tears.....

It tastes a little salty. But kinda sweet too.
Violet's lungs feel like they've expanded!
"Do you feel ok?" Tangle asks. Taking the empty bottle and disposing of it

She nods, wiping her eyes. " I may be running out of time to if I don't... " Haze nuzzled Lythal.

---

Devious looked up at him. " It does sound like the safest option... " She nodded.

" I wouldn't have done all this if I didn't... " He held Eon. The monterous pony was so sweet and gentle. Just as he always was...

---

Violet put a hoof to his chest. " I-... I feel a bit strange. B-but then again, I've never had a potion like this before. " He said, nodding. Ready to follow Tangle.

"Let's go then! No time to waste!" he stands stomping a hoof.

Deranged nods.
"In the morning then. We set out." he says, lookung at his tiny outsider family

Eon cries... against her will.
She puts her face in his fluff to muffle her cries...

Tangle swims in. His fins wiggling.
"Feel ok?" the city under the water like a coral reef!

As if on cue, the locked door is opened.
Only four ponies had the keys...
VelvetMystery took the day off to both help and be with HonorBond.
AutumnBlossom was in tears for the last day and a half, and Haze told him to stay home and rest. And Haze was already there.

In the door, stood a gentle looking deer pony.
EerieHaze thought she was looking at a ghost. " I-... imposible... " She breathed, seeing his cutie mark... Those sad, but caring eyes.

" Hi, EerieHaze.. " He spoke, gentle as ever. Sounding guilty. Somehow.
He looked entirely different. And very much alive.

---

Deranged nodded. She kissed him. " Hhh... I love you.. " She sighed, relieved. Sinking into him. Extra affectionate. Like a big lovable dog.

Grove, surprised, but not saying a word, holds her. A hoof gently running through her mane.
Something told him that she had been strong for far too long without having a moment to release everything she's been through...

---

To Violet's amazement, he can breath under water. Swimming along, a bit clumsily. He follows Tangle. Eyes wide. " It's beautiful.. " He says in awe.

Deranged can't help but grin at her. Letting her lay on him.

Leathal looks at the door.
"Haze...?"

A bunch of bubbles burst from Violet's mouth as he speaks making Tangle chuckle.
"It really is. You should see it all lit up at night, or feast days. Here, you can hold my hoof if it helps you swim." he offers his hoof

The fourth key, had belonged to Sinatra...
That voice was all Haze needed.
" Sin... " She said, barely able to get it out. Galloping up to her friend and hugging him.
Sinatra let out a grunt, almost being taken down, hugging her. He waved at Lythal. " Hey Lyric.. " He said. He seemed sad. Or unsure. But one thing he did do, was smile...
Small, but it was a smile. Hugging his friend.

---

Devious was nuzzling him. " You know big boy... " She began, having that look in her eyes.

Violet giggled.
He blushes, taking his hoof shyly. " Thank you. "

Eon sobs a while. Just clinging to him... as if she needed to release a five hundred year old dam

" You're okay... " Grove assured her. Letting her cry as long as she needed...

Leathal cocks his head... walking over confused.
"Wait... no way...?" he says

Deranged lifts a brow.
"The kids are in here..." he says to her

Tangle swims him toward an underwater park with geysers of bubbles and lovely seaweed grass. Surrounded by coral buildings adorned in shells.
Schools of colorful fish swim about all around and many seaponies dart to and fro

Eon finally lifts her face...
"I love you BlackGrove...

(This may be my new favorite romances...)

(I need to go, but I will respond in the morning)

Sinatra nods. Haze letting go. " It's me, Leathal.. " He tried to put a smile on his face.

He was a deer pony. Antlers grew from between his ears. His pelt simillar color, though also more deer like. Fluffy hair on his legs. And he didn't look deathly thin. If anything mildly pudgey. He looked different, but healthy for once.

" I can't tell you how but-... I-... I was given a second chance... " He said.

---

" Yeah... But the forest is just behind the inn... and they nap for a looong time. " Devious grinned. She was clearly in one of her moods... Which thankfully wasn't violent. But definately made Deranged's job of trying to keep it together a lot more interesting.

(Okay! Goodnight Wolf)

Deranged chortles.
"You won't drop this, will you?" he teases

Leathal eyes him up and down.
"What happened to you?" he asks

Violet's eyes are wide with wonder, taking in the beautifu surroundings.

(Wanna skip to the next day?)

(Ohmygosh, me too)

" Oh, I suppose I should... " She grins. " But you owe me. " Devious kisses him sweetly, snuggling up to him. " We should get ready for tomorrow... We have a long walk to Dusk and Dawn. " She said, thinking about their next big move.

---

Haze went back to Lythal's side, nodding. " How-... is this even possible? You're- you but-.. " She sounded confused. But had no doubt it was him.
Sinatra sighed, eyes looking down. " I can't really tell you why I am the way I am now. Let alone-... alive.. " Sinatra sat down, looking at his hooves. Hugging himself, looking a bit uncomfortable for a moment.
Slowly, that frown turned to a bittersweet smile...
" an old friend showed up... somepony I thought I'd-.. never really see again.. " He looked up at the two.

(Yes! Next morning or skip to different branch)

Tangle waves a hoof in frontmof Violet's eyes.
"You ok? Firdt time seeing the wet zone of Pearl City?" He chuckles knowingly. His bright eyes asparkle

Leathal nods.
"Ok.... who?" he says stepping forward.

Deranged smiles.
"Yes. We do. I have... a good feeling about the future for once..."

Violet just nodded, looking at Tangled. Eyes still wide. He looked so happy. Innocent wonder filled his eyes.
He swam beside Tangled with his help.

---
(We can stay in Dusk n Dawn)

The following morning, the ponies of Dusk and Dawn were prepping for a celebration... Dawn's colorful decor already half decorated the village.
Dusk, both celebrating finished recovery, and the end of the long struggle, had it's black, gold and red decore strung up.

Something Eon had never really seen either. DarkScroll in something other than his uniform or combat gear. A cute, casual look. SilverShield beside him dressed in flowy, traditional Dawn garb. Scroll was beaming... He hadn't looked so happy in a very long time..
" Eon! " He voice was cheerful. " How are you doing? " He asked.
SilverShield bowed, respectful to his home's watcher as always.

(Hi Wolfers)

" Gol-... " Sinatra smiled warmly. " Mmhhmmm.. I'll tell you later. If you two aren't busy, I was hoping maybe we could get the gang together? It's been-... a long time since we all laughed together. " He spoke. Sweet... caring... And Haze could tell. Filled with hope, almost..
She was pressed to Lyric's side. Looking up at him. " What do you say, dork? "

---

The look on DevoiusSage's face after hearing him say that was enough to melt even his heart...
She hugged Deranged. Nuzzling his chest fluff.

Eon was looking over the decor... impressed as it had been so long since she'd seen it so done up...
"O... Scroll?" she says... surprised at how he looked!
"You... clean up well." she said nodfing her head. Trying to recover.

Tangle loved the look. So wonder struck.
"O! I almost forgot. The potion only lasts an hour. So, better see everything before it wears off." he says cutely

Leathal laighs.
"Chance to see EERIE smile? I'm game." he teases. Nosing her neck.

Deranged chuckles. Playfully hugging her and falling back with her!

Scroll blushed slightly, smiling. " It is a pleasure to be serving you again, Eon. " SilverShield's voice was just as soothing as ever.
" Scroll explained to me what had happened... It-... took most the night... " He looked at Scroll, the two nuzzling. " but I am greatful to have this second chance... "

Beside Eon, BlackGrove landed, wrapping a scarf around her neck to hide his bite marks.
" Good morning. " He kissed Eon's cheek, waving at the two generals.
They were the best representation of Dusk and Dawn.
So, very different... But in perfect harmony and balance put together.

---

Violet make a cute, surprised face. " Oh! Guess I better stalk up later.. Let's go then! " He grabbed Tangled's hoof with his, excitedly swimming along. He laughed, so happy.
" It's so beautiful. "

Eon blushes at the adorable gentle gestures...
"O.... thank you..."
She sees how different Scroll and Shield are... is that how her and Grove looked right now?
She blushes at the girlish thought! She was a warrior! Alicorn of balance! How could she be so... whimsical? She scolded herself...

Tangle gasps! A bunch of bubbles coming from his gills! He blushes. Swimming with him.
"We could see the royal garden..." he offers... liking the hoof touch. But scolding himself for it...

Haze gave him a smug look. " You are so lucky I love you. " She chuckled. " Come on, you nerds! " She nudged Leathal and Sin to get moving. Looking happy for once. As happy as she can look anyway.
" Maybe we can drag our crime fighting lesbians away from work today. " She teased. " And Autumn may hug Sinatra BACK to death. " She giggled.

---

Devious laughed. Lying on top of him. Snuggling the grim looking stallion. She nuzzled him affectionately. She licked his cheek, and blushed. " Uhm-... Heh- Sorry. Genetic mutation..? " She shrugged.
This wasn't the first time she acted almost like a wolf. But it always emberassed her.

" Me and Scroll are going to be hopping between villages, helping decorate and set up for festivities. We will see you around. " Shield bowed his head, tugging Scroll along. " Woah! " Scroll waved to Eon, laughing at Shield's excitement.

Grove chuckled. " I see why they're considered a power couple now. " He gave Eon a toothy grin. " Me and my sister should be heading back to Astera. King and Queen returning home after hundreds of years will be a big deal Buuut-... " He gave her a soft look. " I am curious to see some Dusk and Dawn traditions. I think I'll stay for a few more days to see this celebration. " He put a wing over Eon. " Among other reasons.. " He gave her a smug look.

---

Violet wasn't helping, holding both his hooves now. " Really?! We could!? " He asked excitedly.

Devious gives a playful glower.
"Always with the licks...." he shakes his head.
Hugging her still.

Leathal trots beside her.
"Ha! Good luck! You know how dedicated Bond and Velvet are. Those two are unreal..."
He says looking at Sin with a wink

(My heart. Oh my heart. We haven't had just- wholesome sweetness in so long. Oh, this is what I needed)

Tangle can feel his heart thump! Scared Violet will hear!
"Y.... yes! I... I'm alowed in..." he swims with him...
'Why am I feeling this! Just... calm down Tangle...' The seapony mutters under his breath

Eon blushes deeper!
"I mean... if you insist..." she tries SO hard to maintain her cool.
"If it doesn't affect your land..."
(YOU NAMED IT!)

(I know RIGHT? So sweet. TvT)

" I can't help it! " DeviousSage pouted. Giving him a grumpy look. Her head on his chest. " So... What are the plans once we get settled into a propper home? " She asked.

---

Haze nodded. " They are. Maybe we caught them on a slow day? " She shrugged.
Sinatra's bushy little tail twitched. " One way to find out! "

(I LITERALLY JUST WENT WITH A NAME LOCATION FROM MONSTER HUNTER BECAUSE THEIR PLACE IS LITERALLY JUST FU.CKIN' MONSTER HUNTER X'D BUT IT FITS SO-)

Deranged smirks at her.
"Well. Have TwistedWish teach Lulu and I how to enhance our powers. Perhaps get Ebon a spar partner." He says scruffing her chin...

Leathal bobs his head in agreement!
"Let's drop in on them!"

(Lol. Still glad it's named. Now. The desert)

Violet was having too much fun. Not hearing his mutterings, he hugs Tangled. " Oh, thank you! Let's hurry! Before the potion wears off. "

---

" SilentPrincess told me you two visited under cover 0f disguise quickly some time ago. She said they seemed to be doing quite well. If they survived a few hundred years without us, what's a few more days.. " Grove covers them with his large wings, kissing Eon. " It's worth it just to see you a bit longer... " He said softly in her ear.

(Been tryin' to think of one. PLUS maybe have a big, fun story focussing on them eventually since they haven't gotten much development.)

Devious looked at Lucid. Peacefully curled up. " Her power... what Cheshire said-... Do you really think she could be a summoner? "

Also the thought of one of the most powerful magic weilders teaching them in the outter kingdom frightened her. Though, she knew Dusk followed very honorable and strict rules on such magic. Lucid would have a good teacher..

---

The three arrive at the M.P.D, trotting in.

Haze trotted up to the desk. " Is HonorBond available? " She asked the mare at the front.

Eon's ears flatten.... he was so... public. She felt odd.. just being lovey. Would the others think less of her?
"Perhaps..." She dares lean into him... enjoying his warm... memories of the previous night dancing in her head...

Tangle nods...
"He swims him to the garden. Full of exotic coral and annome

Bond hears her name and all but LEAPS from her desk!
"Guys! Hey..... who's the deer?" she stops mid greet

Deranged nods.
"I'll make sure of it. I will protect our children. He groups Fang in there

(True. I need more pones there. Other than Cleaver)

Groves folded his wings back to his side. " Once everything is sorted, you should come visit some time. Stay in the castle. I could show you how we opperate there. Being in the outter kingdoms as long as I have since being free has been interesting. Every kingdom is so different... Strange how Dusk and Dawn remain so small, yet so strong spirited... " He thought out loud, looking at Eon. " I see why you and your brother are the protectors of the outter kingdom.. " He smiled.

---

Violet slows down, taking his time again. He looked so relaxed around anything natural. " It's amazing. " He spoke quietly.

"You do? Why is that?" Eon says, genuinely curious...

Tangle smiles widely.
"Hey... may I... do something?" he asks. Twidling his hooves

Devious looks at Fang. " Poor thing... hhh.. We both will... " She rests on Deranged. " You're sweet when you show you care.. " She told him. Relaxed, on top of her stallion.

---

" Autumn is gonna be so confused. " Haze chuckled, nudging Lyric.

" Jeeze! Run off why don't you-.. " Velvet stopped, hooves over her mouth. Instantly recognizing him. Life long friends and all.. " Sinatra... "

Sinatra waved sheepishly. " Hey, guys.. How've you been. " He confirmed.

Bond looks at Velvet... then Sinatra.
"Wait.. what?" She asks.
Lyric winks.
"Give it a second

Deranged looks at her confused.
"Of course I care... what do you mean?" he says to his wolf mare

" I'm not familliar with outter kingdom history. But what I do know is that the outter kingdoms had a bloody history. Until two siblings were born, destined to help bring peace... And it's been true. Dusk and Dawn never waged war... or went after other kingdoms... They were there for ponies. To protect... to care for. Even after everything that's happened recently, you and your brother brought everyone together to take down a threat that would have put the world in danger. " Grove said, glancing at her. " You both should be proud... " He told her. Maybe with the right resources, you could become a kingdom. " Grove coughed, looking all innocent. " Grow. Influence others. Be the shield against evil in the outter kingdoms. " He grinned.

---

Violet looked at him curiously. " Of course. Are you okay? " He asked sweetly.

Velvet tackled Sinatra to the ground in a hug. Making Haze laugh. " Hello to you too! " Sinatea coughed.
Velvet sniffled, squeezing him.
" H-hey Honor. It's me... Sinatra.. " He said, still down on the ground.

---

Devious rolled her eyes. " I know you care. It's just-.. you're expressing it more... yourself.. You're not as closed off as you use to be... it's just nice to see you smile for once. " She kisses him gently.

"Of course! Just..."
He takes some kelp... folding it into a flower... putting it in Violet's mane...

Eon flushes.
"Are you always so... poetic...?" she says... looking at him all misty

Deranged's eyes fold.
"I.... I'm sorry..." He says. Looking away

Lyric laughs.
Bond smiles!
She jumps over to hug him too!

The look Violet gives him is heart meltingly precious. He blushes bright red. " T-... thank you.. " He says all shy.
Even underwater, the scent of flowers could be smelled.. quite strong this time.

---

Grove chuckled. " We're not only warriors in Astera, my love. " He teases, lifting her chin. Eyes locked to hers. " Do we need a moment in privicy? " He asked, worried about her.

Devious gently pulls his gaze back to hers. " I know things have been unfairly difficult... especially before we met... " She held his head. Forhead to forhead. " We're a family now though... you're still here.. let yourself be happy Deranged... you deserve it.. " She sniffled, holding onto him tightly.

---

Sinatra grunted, squished under the two mares. " Nice t- to see you too! " He said, half crushed, but laughing.

" Come on. We still need to grab AutumnBlossom. " Haze chuckled, waving them along.

Eon's wings flap without her concent!
'I...! Hmmmm.... maybe..." She whispers...

Tangled grins.
"Do you always smell like flowers?"

Bond stands. Pulling the deer onto her back.
"Explain on the way!" She gallops along!

Deranged looks at her....
"Ok. Ok. You're right." He pulls her hooves down

Grove gives her a worried look. " Are you okay? " He asks.

---

Violet gave a nervous, shy look. " O-only in certain situations. U-usually when I'm really happy or- " He stopped, looking emberassed.

(Next morning or swap Devious & Deranged?)

Sinatra tells Velvet and Honor what he told Haze and Leathal on the way to Autumn's appartment.

".......or?" Tangle probes... holding his chest..

Eon shakes her head.
"I'm fine..."
She nods.
"Ok. We should catch up to Scroll and Shield. They are in charge of a lot of tradations..."

(Meet up with Autum?)

(Players choice. Next morning setting out for the villages or a switch)

" Nothing! " V squeaked.

---

Grove nuzzled her. " Alright.. Let's find 'em. "

(We can switch. Maybe some Morgana x Bloom & Abundant?)

Sinatra slid off Honor's back. " Thanks for the ride. "

Haze knocked. Waiting for Autumn to answer.

Eon... stops... her mind swimmimg. Her emotions overflowing.
"F.uck it..." she grabs him hard and kisses him! Kinda hostage levels of gripping.... with her clawwed wings...

Tangle smiles.
"I... I won't tell..." he prods

Bond circles the deer.
"Wow... it's really you... You look good." she says rufgling his mane.

(Ok! We just doing them or adding CrossNeedle to get/watch over his majesty?)

Grove's eyes are wide with surprise for a moment. But he's into it.. Holding her tightly. Passionate..

---

" When I'm very-... "excited"... " Violet admits. " Which, granted, hasen't been in a long time.. " He grumbles to himself.

(Oh yeah! CrossNeedle! Hmm... Scratch that, I have a new idea that'll be good development for some characters.)

" Really? " Sinatra looks himself over. Blushing slightly as she roughs up his already messy mane.
" Even if I am a bit-... pudgey? "

Haze sighed. " You're not use to not being DEATHY SKINNY! Eat, you fu.ck. You passing out at work and the middle of the street is not that fun. " She scolds.

" Hel- Who is-..? " Autumn answered the door sadly, suddenly stunned.

" Yes, it's Sinatra. " Velvet and Haze said in sync.

"Ex... cited?" Tangle asks... looking over Violent...

Eon holds the kiss... last over thirty seconds.
"Ok... I'm good now..." She finally releases the stallion

"Wait... pudgey? You look norm..." Bond looks at the door...
Lythal can't stop stop smiling

(Ok! What's the idea?)

" He is normal weight. He's just being a little sh!t.. " Haze grumbled.
Sinatra smiled innocently.
" And if you starve yourself again with this new body, I will kill you myself. " She threatened. Sinatra nodded quickly, suddenly being tackle hugged by Blossom.
Making the group laugh again.

" You're loved, Sinatra... you just-... " Velvet sighed. " Take care of yourself please.. don't throw away a second chance.. "

(Morgana and Needle visit Mirage & Cinder)

" Yes.. If you don't know what I mean be ha-... " He suddenly looked a bit panicked. " T-Tangled... T- " Violet choked slightly. He had lost track of time. His potion was wareing off. He needed to get above water fast.

---

" Glad-... I could help? " Grove blushed, running a hoof through his mane.
He had no complaint. Just surprised. " gods I love you... " He muttered.

(Ok! Let's do that!)

Lythal laughs, leaning on Haze.
Bond chuckles. "Dorks." Shre says lovingly.

(Been meaning to say this. I'm planning on offing Rainy)

(I beg your pardon?)

Eon reddened.
"O... love... still so odd to hear..." She says trotting toward the stallions.

Tangle gasps! He holds his waist! Swimming up in a rush!

(*innocent chuckle*)

(Nuh uh. Don't "innocent chuckles" me, EXPLAIN YOURSELF! *Triggered dog sounds*)

(She's not meaningful to the story. And plays no good role. I always feel awkward with her. And her fantasies don't help)

(*Aggressively gestures to Overcast*

I COULD SAY THE SAME ABOUT SINATRA! Don't play this fu.cking game with me)

(I'm not in the mood for this. If Rainy dies, so does Cast. That's just the long and short of it)

(I didn't say she has to die. Just stays out of the picture. And Cast could find love elsewhere.
I don't want you mad. TvT
You just redesigned Sinatra so I thought this was his whole new big second chance!)

(I redesigned him for me. So he's not just a depressed little sh!t. I redesigned him, because much like me recently, he's making an effort to be happy. And let go of his sh!tty mistakes in the past. ... and his design was boring as sh!t but still.
He can still be friends with Rainy!

And Cast was made to be shipped with Rainy so otherwise he's kind of useless.

If you want to, go ahead. honestly- just- do whatever you want. All I ask is that you don't just straight up kill her.
I know someone who'd jump on shipping Cast if you insist so-..
just don't kill Rainy.)

(I can't stop you. So if you want Rainy to take a backseat, go ahead.)

(I won' kill her. And I know your attached and doing a lot with Winchester. I get it and am happy for you.
I did not mean to derail this. I just wanted to let you know what was on my brain)

(As long as she stays safe. Because Sin would die if anything happened to her.

Alright...
If you honestly aren't confident in using her anymore, then I can't say anything. She's your character. So-

Wanna continue or save it for another time?)

(I can continue! If you like. TvT
They arre still friends)

(I don't know. Maybe I just need to use her...)

(Alrighty. gimme a sec to reply)

Morgana was visiting the Desert Kingdom.
Mirage approached him, and a pony she'd never seen before. Wearing light, showy desert garb. " Prince Morgana. You handsome bat. Welcome my friend. It has been too long. " The young queen greeted. " Who is your friend? " She asked.
Morgana grinned. " It has been quite some time. " He looked at Needle smiling, letting him introduce himself.

---

" Da.mn right. " Velvet nuzzled her.
" Why don't we all hang out? Maybe play a littke somethin' later? " Sin suggested. Blossom still squeezing him.

Violet panicked. Unable to breathe. He held onto Tangled, terrified as he was beggining to drown...

---

Scroll looked up. " Eon. What brings you here? " He asked, giving her a curious look. Helping a pony set up a stand in the market.
Shield was moving heavy boxes as if they were empty.

Needle steps forward.
"CrossNeedle, royal tailor and retainer. My liege." He gives a toothy grin. Bowing.

Bond nods.
"O yes! We must! Right now!"

Tangle panics too!
Swirling in a circle now! In a tizzy he kisses Violet! Giving him some waterbreathing,..

Eon smiles at them.
"Showing Grove around. I need you guys to tell him about our ways."

" A pleasure to meet you, CrossNeedle. Welcome to the royal palace. " She smiled.
Morgana leaned in to Needled's ear whispering. " Don't let her fool you... She was one of the leaders of the rebel forces to take back the kingdom.. " He smirked, having great respect for her dedication to her home and those in it.

" What brings you here, Prince? " She asked curiously.
" Me and CrossNeedle will staying here for a while. We wanted to do what we could to assist in the rebuilding of your home. It's sad seeing such a beautiful place in ruin still.. " He said kindly.

---

The group was sat at a park table having lunch later on.
" I still can't get over that you're a deerpony now. " Haze said.

" I think it suits him. " Blossom smiled.

Velvet leaning on Honor all lovey-dovey.

Bond chuckles. Feeding Velvet a grape lovingly.
"Yeah. Llike you should have always been one." Lyric chimes.

Needle rolls his eyes at the prince.
Cynder snorts.
"I don't trust them..." She says outright

Violet coughed violently, as it took effect. He blushed, looking at him. " T-tangleroot... " He rested on him. Muzzle to his chest. " Thank you... " He said, nuzzling him. Clinging to him for dear life. Out of it. Heart pounding in his chest. Root could almost feel it..

---

Scroll and Shield looked at each other. " It's been a while since we've done that. " Scroll said.
Shield nodded. " Why don't you explain to him Dusk's traditions and history on a little walk. " He said. " I would like to speak to Eon. "

Eon perks.
"O?" She looks at Shield.

Tangle holds him... panting. Still riled...

Trotting up to her other side was BloodMoon. The ex, Eclipse special forces zebra. Now a loyal retainer to Mirage.
" You don't trust anyone. " He grumbled at her remark.

" Ehh- Excuse their behavior. These are my retainers, Cynder and BloodMoon. " Mirage said. " Please, make yourself at home. Moon, care to escort them to their room? " Mirage gestured toward him.
Turning to Cynder. " Da.mnit Cynder. Your passion for oppening that mouth of yours burns hotter than the desert sun. " She huffed.

---

Sinatra made a face. " Takes getting use to a whole new body but it's interesting.. "

Haze nudged Leathal, whispering something to him. Mentioning how she wanted him over tonight...

" We should play a song! " Velvet declared.
" Our band stuff's back at the shop still? " Blossom looked at her.

Lythal perks.
"O yeah?" he grins dopily.
Bond nods! "O! I want to hear this!"

Scroll trots off with Grove.

He looked ashamed of himself. " Am I a disgrace to Dawn, Miss Eon..? " He asked, looking away.
Clearly, there were a few things bothering him with his whole situation. No doubt questioning if he even deserves to be there..

---

Violet clung to him, almost in tears. " I- I thought-... everything was going dark.. I-.. " He sniffled. Scared out of his mind. He nuzzled Tangled. " Thank you... " He whimpered.

Cynder snorts.
"I can't help that I'm careful..." The pink striped mare retorts

Eon looks surprised!
"Wait... no! Of course not! Shield... why would you say that?" she asks. Hoof on his shoulder.

Tangle's heart speeds up...
"No problem..." he barely manages...

" There's careful, then there's paranoid. " Mirage said sternly. Trotting past her. " It is time for our training. Put that thick head and firey temper to good use. " She said, grinning.

---

" Me and Sinatra can go and get the stuff. You guys hang out. " Autumn said, and the two were off.

Velvet kissed Bond. " So Haze... Any plans for the future with Lyric..? " She gave her a smug look.
Haze's face turned BRIGHT red at the tease. " Velvet! " Haze scoffed.

Shield shut his eyes. " I-... feel unworthy... of this second chance.. " He answered honestly. " If I told Scroll, I couldn't bare to see his face... "

---

" y-you kissed me.. " V tried to calm down.

Got to go. TvT

Lyric grins.
"O! I'm dying to hear this..." He leans on her.

Cynder rolls her eyes, trotting with Mirage.
"O? Ready for me ta kick your a$$ already today?" she chides to the queen

Tangle shudders in embarrassment.
"I... I paniced... I... I'm sorry..." he says in a stutter...

Eon lifts his chin.
"SilverShield, you worry too much. Worthiness is not assigned. It's earned. And I do not doubt you will make something of this chance. Don't throw it away with fears." she says rather wisely

Haze groaned. " Yes actually. ... I plan on sleeping all day tomorrow. " She smirked.

" That's not what I meant! " Velvet flailed a hoof.

---

" I wouldn't be so sure about that.. " Mirage grinned. Leading her to the training grounds.

Violet held onto Tangled, nuzzling him. " T-thank you for saving me.. " He sighed, relieved.

---

Shield nodded. " I-... thank you, Eon.. I apologize.. "

Cynder gallops out with her. Grabbing a spear as she goes.

Lyric rolls his eyes.
"After we get done doing it maybe..."

Eon lifts him up.
Smiling... more warmly than she could remember...

Tangle BURNS with blush!
He swims up to the surface, still holding him but looking utterly embarrassed

(Hey Wolfers. How you doin'?)

Mirage takes off her showy. royal garb and takes a defensive stance. Grinning, hooves digging into the dirt.

---

Haze choked, and Velvet started laughing. " Ohh! I'm surprised she let you get that close in the first place to be honest. "

" I so regret telling you that... " The goth pony hid her face on her forelegs in shame.

(I'm good! How are you? I haven't heard from you)

" I plan on making the mo-... " His ear perked up, hearing galloping behind him.
There was a pop of magic.
Shield whipped around, standing on his hind hooves, front hooves spread in front of him creating an almost invisible silvery shield of light.
A red blade bounced off the barrier and was caught in the red magic of an intimidating looking deer pony. Four thugs with her. " Hmm... Not bad. " She smirked.

---

Violet held on. " W-well... What now? " He coughed up water.

Cynder comes dashing at her. Spear up and head down. So much grit in her eyes!

Leathal smiles broadly.
"She always sleeps after the act." he winks

(Sorry about that. Been struggling recently... Wanted to catch you but I'm either doing something else or just too-... bleh.
I'm fine though.)

Eon narrows her eyes and leaps beside Shield!
"Who are you? Surrender and PERHAPS I won't break all you legs for trespassing..." she spits.

Tangle starts swimming to the shore.
"W... well... first I think we need to get you out of the water..."
(Can Tangle and Shore be old friends?)

Mirage spun, narrowly avoiding the spear. Planting a hind hoof in her rear end to send her off ballance.

---

EerieHaze's horn glowed, levitating a pile leaves from behind them and dropped it on Lyric's head.

Velvet couldn't stop laughing. " Oh does she! Tell me... Is that the only time she's loud..? " Velvet teased.

(Are you ok now? I was getting worried)

(Aww, that's be sweet)

" I-I would appreciate that. " Violet laughed weakly.

---

" You must be Eon. " The mare in charge spoke. Her voice was commanding. Strong. Her red blade and strange sheath were something special, if Shield had to guess.
" I hate to crash the party but there's a nice bounty on your head by a certain somepony. " She chuckled darkly.

" Who are you!? Answer her. " SilverShield's tone went from soft to strong and commanding. Sounding like the Dawn general Eon was use to.

" QuickDraw. And these are the last moments of your life. " She said, almost annoyed.

Leathal laughs even with with the leaves.
"O no. Shes a squeeker even then." he keeps going.
Grabbing her and kissing her cheek!

(Wolf. I've been struggling for a while now.
It's just really taking a toll on me.
I'll be alright.)

Cynder lets herself roll. Getting back to her hooves.
"Not bad..."

Haze's face was BRIGHT red. " I will actually bite your d!ck tonight! " She groaned. Looking defeated.

Velvet fell off the bench, wheezing.

" Don't let your guard down. Remember to be aware of your surroundings as well. " Mirage spoke sternly. Giving genuine help.
The look in her eyes was one that commanded respect. The experiance of being a rebellion leader coming back to her.

"Unlikely..." Eon soars to QuickDraw and wraps her in her tendrils!

(Can we have Tangle and Shore talk? I think he should talk about his feelings with a friend. >v0)

(Brb. Getting food)

Grove gasped, returning with Scroll.

" Eon! " Scroll's horn flashed and him and Shield's attire flashed, chaging from casual to their combat gear. Shield grinned, both stallions had blades drawn, charging in.

QuickDraw was surprisingly strong. Physically.
She quickly punched her front hooves into Eon's chest repeatedly. The edge of her blade barely touching Eon, creating a cut in her shoulder as she wrestled her.

The other thugs went after Scroll and Shield. They looked at eachother with wolfish grins. " Shield, go high! " Scroll lowered his head, and Shield jumped off his back, landing a hind hoof to the face on one of her thugs. Scroll drew his blade, sliding over Shield and clashed swords with the second.
You could tell they missed this.

(Yeah! That'd be so cute! You wanna start it off?)

Cynder snorts.
"Stop your preaching and get swinging already!" Cynder bellows. Darting around the queen.

Leathal winces.
"Hey babe... no need to get violent..." he chuckles nervous

Eon grit her teeth.
"I'll take that out on your hide..." she seethed. Eyes burning red!
She tosses QuickDraw high into the air with her horn!

Tangle felt excited... but confused...
So much so he swam to Shore's home in the water district of the city

Mirage shrugs, grinning. " If you say so. " She approached, knocking the spear upwards to throw her off, taking her legs out from under her. " I swung. " She said as she stretched.

---

Haze chuckled, whispering to him. " Be a good boy and I'll reward you then. " She teased back. Her turn now.

Velvet got up. " You two-... Oh my gosh, I can't breathe. " She laughed. " I think you two should just head home now. You sound like you need a little fun. "

Haze banged her head on the table. Unable to win this time. And hating that she was probably right...

Bond just holds Velvet. Letting her girl rest on her.

Lyric rubs Eerie's back.
"There there love." he teases.

Cynder stands with a groan. All scruffed.
"Fu.... cking b!tch..." she wipes her nose

QuickDraw smirked. Sheathing her blade, and throwing it into the air. A red rope of magic teathered her to it, swingingnher back around to the ground. She tumbled, being so high up, but recovered quickly. " Her thugs, already having their a.sses handed to them stumbled back with her. " We'll meet again.. " She huffed, taking off with her defeated goons.

Shield and Scroll went to Eon's side.
" Are you alright, Miss Eon? " Shield looked at her wound.
" Who the hell was that? " Scroll sheathed his blade, confused.

Grove was shocked.

ShatterShore was off duty. Resting at home.
He yawned. Mouth full of shark teeth showing off. " I wonder hows Tangled's been.. " He thought out loud, not hearing from him in a while.

Tangle wiggle swims up. Knocking gently. Hoping he's not being a bother...

Eon glowers.
"I can follow them from the air..."
She starts taking it off!

Velvet leans on Honor. Composing herself. She snuggles her, giving Honor a big smile.

" You know. I think me and Lyric may just go home. " She shoves him slightly, grinning. " Since he's being a horny bast.ard. " She smirked.

---

" I had tyrant soldiers and freedom fighters call me that before. " Mirage kicked the spear away.
" Cynder. You fight with blind rage and the stubborness that sent this kingdom spiralling. Raw emotion can be a powerful weapon, but not controlling it only gets you flat on your flank. " She trotted by, whipping her flank with her tail. " And it's a shame it's a nice one too.. " She teased.

(Hey. Feel like any au? Feel free to say no)

Lythal wiggles a bit to hide his... excitement.
"I'm cool with that..." he noses Eerie's ear...

Bond chuckles. Standing with Velvet.

Cynder watches her smack her muscled firm flank.
"Hmf. Fine. How would you do it?" she says... venom in every word as she HATES asking for help...

The door opens and the shark pony smiles. " Oh! Tangled! I was just thinking about you. " He greeted, happy to see his friend, gesturing him to come inside.

---

" Wait! " Grove tried to stop her before she took off.

Once the runaways got back to the tree line, her goons panted. QuickDraw glared at BoneBreaker. " Come on. This job's not worth the trouble. That stupid Huntress traitor can fight that over grown Manticore on her own. " She spat.

(*Inhales* AU IT UP! Who we doin'?!)

BoneBreaker nods.
"This was a stupid mission. Fighting an alicorn? Are you really so full hardy?" he says stimping a heavy hoof

Eon stops for Grove.
"We can get them!" she demands. She extends a hoof to welcome him to help her...

Tangle swims in.
"O really? All good things I hope?" he jokes

(Lol. Ypu pick first. Ypu know what my bad heart will pick. TvT)

Eerie nuzzled him. " You're lucky I love you.. " She whisped, kissing him.

Velvet smiled. " You go have fun. Me and Honor may have a cuddle day of our own.. " She nosed her mare.

---

" Level headed. " Mirage answered. " You need to stop thinking, "Fight to win. Kill my oppenent." and start thinking smart. Both defensively and offensively. The best warriors, even if fueled by emotions, keep some semblence of control of themselves. They think. They look for oppenings on both their oppenent and themselves. "

(Is it Bloom..? Bloom Abundant and Morgana? Because I want that.)

Bond blushes! Her flip back and she chokes a moment on her inhale of spit from surprise!
Now Leathal is laughing!

QuickDraw shot him a look. " I thought she would be to prissy to put up a fight. " She huffed, making distance between her and Dawn.

---

" Eon. We'll deal with them if they return. They were just lowly bandits. I think you proved a point as well. " Grove said. " Let's go to your sanctuary.. I'll clean up that wound. " He said. It wasn't bad, but it stung like hell.

---

Shore chuckled. " Of course. " He assured. " What brings you here so late? " He asked.

Cynder nods.
"Ok..." She sounds a bit defeated listening to her...

Tangle fidgets with his hooves.
"Ah... well... I wanted.. I mean I just..." he can't seem to Focus.
"I had to kiss someone today..."

(TvT
I mean... me too...)

" I said cuddle, you pervert! " Velvet laughed.

" You two have fun.. " Haze waved, looking sly.

The two couples returning home for their respective fun times. Very different fun times...

Mirage sighed. " Cynder, don't sound so defeated. I'm only telling you because I don't want to watch you getting yourself killed.. " She trotted up beside her. " You're a good fighter. Just-... Need a little work on the technical side. " She assured her.
" You've bested me a few time, remember that. That's not easy. " She smiled.

(You start!)

Lythal can't wipe his sh!t eating grin off his face...
All but skipping along until they get back to Haze's place...

Bond follows Velvet. Nervous as always about intimate things

" Oh? " Shore gave him a curious look. " That can mean two different things for us seaponies, Tangled. " He chuckled. " To help, or-... " He gave him a sly look. " Have you found a special somepony. " He nudged him teasingly.

(Ok!

So. For now they've all finished up.
Blessings has really enjoyed that evening. Coming to Morgana as he's cleaning up.
"Did you enjoy two big beauties of the country, my love?" she asks sauntry)

" You're excited. " Haze oppened the door to her appartment, giving him a sly look. Seeing as he practically skipped all the way to her place.

---

Velvet was no better, prancing along. " We could watch a movie, or play games- Oooh! Horror movie! Then we can have frightened cuddles! " She said. Nerdy and energetic as she's been in a while. She'd turned around so much since meeting Honor... Less miserable and a lot more hopeful.

(Morgana shook his mane out, in the shower. It was huge for obvious reasons..
He looked over at Abundant, nodding. " Hmhmm.. Of course. It's an honor to spend such intimate time with the two most lovely mares in Unicornicopia.. " He said, giving her a fangy grin. Adoring the big mares.)

"I could go for some games." Honor says. Relieved she'd not chance messing up intimacy with her mare!

Lythal struts in.
"O, it is you who should be excited Haze." teasingly walking in like he's hot stuff

("Perfect... because I'd like to keep treating you, if you'll allow me. I've invited Bloom to stay and... participate in a 'royal diet change'.... Perhaps I could join her. And by next week... truely show you two huge mares..." She says hautly in his ear... her hoof on his flank)

(Omg, is Honor nervous about having a moment with Velvet?)

" Okay! Online, single player, co-op, party games- I have a lot of games... " Velvet trailed off, blushing. Realizing she sounded like a huge nerd.

---

" Easy hot stuff. I know it's been a while, but try not to spu.nk everywhere already. " Haze teased, kissing him.

Cynder said nothing.
To her at least as she pushed out beside. Mumbling it wasn't good enough...

Tangle is breathless... he can't meet Shore's eyes...

(A little. She doesn't want to screw it up or Velvet to think less of her...)

Bond grins.
"Anything with... super heros?" the fellow big nerd says back

Lyric pfts. Waving a hoof.
"Ok ok. Well. What you got in mind babe?" he says getting chest to chest

(Morgana bit his lip. " I would not mind that... " He huffed. Giving her a wanting look.. " Maybe I'll join you on that diet for a little while. A little more bat pony to go around.. ")

" Cynder? " Mirage had never seen that look on her face before. " Something on your mind? "

---

" Tangle? You look like something's wrong. " Shatter pressed, a bit worried now.

("O my...I would love that! But... this isn't a diet change to get a little pot belly your majesty. The food will be made so decadent and delicious you'll eat and eat till you nearly split yourself. And you're expected to do it everyday at every meal. I'm not sure if a non unicornicopian can do it..." she flutters her lovely lashes enticingly.
"There'd certainly be extra bat to go around..." She roves her hooves teasingly over his skinny middle... as if imagining...)

Cynder didn't stop. Just as stubborn and hard headed as ever!

Tangle looks up.
"I... I don't know..." he whispers his answer

(Awww, poor Honor. Velvet would never.)

" Super heros? Hmmm... " Velvet thought. " I could-... download a game you like. Gives you an excuse to come over more often.. " She nuzzles her, finally arriving home and letting her inside.

---

" Seeing as we had so much fun last time. " Her horn flashed, levitating a leash and a gag. " I'll let you decide since I'm in a good mood... " She grinned.

(He's be lying if he said he wasn't intimidated by the thought. " Maybe I'll do a little something on my own time then... " He says sheepishly. Quickly turning into a sly look. " Then go on that lovely Unicornicopia diet. Just for you. " He kisses Abundant passionately.)

Lyric visibly... hardens.
"O fu.ck... that's hard core... I've never used that..." His blue eyes on the leather leash and collar...

Bond grins.
"As if I need one. But ok. Can't remember my last download." she walks in with her. Side to side

(She kisses back... teasingly pulling away before he can get too into it.
"Of course my love. I'll see you in a week..."
She walks out. Purposefully shaking her big rear all the way out... before embarking on a huge diet change,..

Skip to end of the week?)

Mirage's ears droop. Now a bit worried about her.

" Why the sad face, fire flower. " BloodMoon said, leaning against a pillar in one of the halls.

---

Shore gave him a look. " What happened exactly, then? " He asked.

Haze tried to not stare.. Pretending she wasn't quite excited herself. She trotted to her bed, putting the collar on. Half posing for him. " Well. Whenever you want, big boy. " She gave him a seductive look.

---

Velvet booted up her TV and game system. " I'll buy it for you! Just tell me what you like to play. " She smiled, scooting right up to Honor.

(Sure! Who starts?)

Cynder stops for Moon.
"I... nothing." the hard mare still blocks... but not as much

Tangle gulps.
"H... he was drowning. I had to..." he says

(I can!

Blessings had indeed fed up herself and Bloom!
A constant feast with the intent of fattening them both up considerably...
Bloom had started out enormas... they'd moved her to the courtyard to continue to feed her up... night and day.
Now, she was too plump to squeeze through the doors. Definately not Blessings hope (Lol)
Bloom hadn't quiet doubled but was rather close to doubke her size. All soft velvety lard and pink pelt.

Blessings had always been plump, but not in a long LONG while had her stomach touched the ground... now she lay on a cusion of belly that supported her off her hooves...
Both waiting for Morgana in the courtyard)

" You're good at fighting, but not lying, dear. " He said. Slowly walking up beside her. " It must be bad to put a pony like you in sour spirits. " The fellow retainer said.

---

" Oh, so you saved somepony from drowning! " Shore smiled. " Good looking out Tangled. Those are scary situa-... " He remembered why he was here in the first place. " Ohh... " He grinned, figuring it out but didn't say anything. Letting Tangled figure this out.
" So what's wrong then? Be happy! You saved his life. " He smiled brightly.

(It had only been a week. Morgana wasn't an expert like thw two mares, but he did his best to gain some extra weight. He was a bit squishy. No longer his skinny self.
He returned to Unicornicopia, going to meet the two mares in the courtyard. Excited to see them.)

"Gaaaah! It's HER! I can't stand her!" Cynder blows up! Punching a wall... leaving a sizable dent... despite her beauty she was strong...

Tangle now figets with his mane...
"I know I know... but... Shore. It was a STALLION!" he says in hushed histarics! Waving a hoof, his fins flitting

(Blessings hears him approach and uses her magic to open the courtyard doors for him.
"Greetings my prince." she says wantingly.
There is a huge fountain in the yard of marble and grass. Misting the whole yard.
The two mares are... well, not shoulder to shoulder. But rather belly to belly in wait for him. Both far more huge than before...
Blessings and Bloom's eyes light up as they see he has indeed become a little chubby...
Blessings bites her lip, while Bloom oogles...)

BloodMoon's almost tired gaze went from the dent, back to her. Unflinching.
" Which "her" are we talking about? " He asked calmly.

---

ShatterShore chuckled. Letting him get it all out.
" And? " He asked, making a tray of snack for them, bringing it over to a couch made of coral. Setting it on a table.

"Her! That Mirage!" Cynder stomps around him. Actually a bit foal like

Tangle takes a bit of a kelpcake.
"Thank you... well... Well I... I... didn't dislike it..." he squeezes his eyes tightly closed

(Morgana trots up, admiring the two. " Hello Abundant. Bloom. Looking beautiful as ever.. " He grinned.)

" The queen? And why is that? " BloodMoon's eyes only follow her when she's in front of him, when she's stomping around.

---

Shore chomps the snack quickly. Having the teeth to shred it with ease..
" Oohhh.. " He pretends to just catch on. " You're not sure if you like stallions... Is that what this is about? " He plays dumb.

("As are you my love..."
Blessings uses her magic to bring him close, to embrace him. Let him feel how soft and weighty she'd become.
"You look dashing. Are you pleased by the results?" she addresses her form and pats Bloom who giggles and jiggles all over in response.
"I worked extra hard on this for you." she says having plans...)

"I... I don't like stallions. N... not like that at least." Tangle says defensively. Clutching his little cake.

"She's always a step ahead of me! I hate it! She thinks she's better than me!" She grunts. Panting now

(Hey. If it's cool, in the AU thing. Can we have a second branch of Rainy (still a huge over fed mare since that's how we left her) re-meeting Sinatra? Maybe working things out?)

Shore chomps another snack. " So- What is this about? Just wanted to drop by and tell me how that kiss went? " He teased playfully.

---

" I don't think she thinks that, Cynder. " He said. " You should see her training sessions with me. She has me flat on my flanks quite a lot. She's stern. But she cares. She wouldn't train us if she didn't. " He said.

(I'm fine with that!
But I think I might go. I'm distracted n my mood is bleh. N I don't wanna cheap out on the replies cause these are fun.

We can continue all of these next time?! And hopefully I can catch you on more often?)

Cynder seems unconvinced. Looking at him though and not being aggresive.
"Really?" she finally says

Tangle beams.
"I! NO!" He defends too eagerly! Cake crushed in his hooves!

(Ok. Sure!)

(You can start it and I'll reply in the morning?)

(I can try to leave a couple responses every day)

(I'll do my best to catch ur RP's! I miss this)

(Ok!)

(So, since hearing about Sinatra's hospitalazation and supposed death Rainy had dipped into a serious depression and had been institutionalized to help her come out of it.
She was still huge... without a doubt the biggest patient the hospital had ever dealt with.
They'd tried to change her diet but that had only made it worse.... so they let her eat whatever she pleased until she came out of the worst of it.
Currently she was belted to a large hospital bed... one she easily filled and spilled out of. A large belt across her belly to keep her in place and not fall (one secured with a few extra belts for her width... that was in need of more help as it was squeezed deep into her flabby middle. Soft fat lapping around it.)
She was waking from a nap)

Me too! See you tomorrow!

ShatterShore chuckled. " Well. What's problem? " He presses.

---

" She's a queen. Our military has recovered quite a bit. She'd have you train alone, by one of the drill instructors, or send you out to get yourself killed if she didn't want you to have the same experiance she did. " BloodMoon said.
" Training when I was in the Eclipse was-... ruthless... " He looked down. " You weren't trained to be strong to help others.. you were just trained to get in, kill and get out. So many recruits were killed or died because of the extremes we were put through. " The former Eclipse agent gritted his teeth. Clearly, he hadn't let go of that...

Tangle looks ashamed.
"I... I don't wantnto like it. I'm not that way Shatter. You know that."

Scorch sighs.
"I... yes. I'm sorry..." she sits lowering her head

" Who you say you are, amd who you are, can be be very different, Tangled. " Shore said. " If you liked it, I don't see the problem here. " He chuckled.

---

" Don't be sorry. Just don't be so hard on yourself. ... Or others. " He smirked. " This won't change in a day either. If you ever need somepony to talk to, Cinder. You know where to find me. " BloodMoon gave her a slight smile.

(I'll reply to the au eventually. I've just barely had the wherewithall to focus on anything for too long unless in the moment.)

Tangle BURNS red.
He takes a napkin wiping the crumbs off of himself.
"I.... maybe..."

Cynder gives a shy smile back and starts walking to her quarters

(It's ok. I just hope you start to feel better)

(Sinatra went to visit Rainy. Trotting to her room, wanting to see her again after quite some time. He went to walk through the door, banging his antlers on the doorway. " Ow.. " He rubbed his head. " Rainy..? " He said, peeking inside.)

Rainy hears the knocking. Surprised by it considering the doctors didn't usually knock.
"Hello? You can come in?" she says sitting up

" Besides. You did it to save him. Maybe if things were different, you'd really know if you enjoyed it or not. " Shore says.

---

BloodMoon watched her trot off, oppening his mouth but let her be.

(Want to continue or swap?)

(Hey Wolfers)

(I'VE MISSED YOU O MY GOSH)

(If you want sure! I'm cool with pretty much anything)

Tangle wipes crumbs away. Holding his chin.
"That's... not a bad idea..." he says mostly to himself, but loud enough to be heard

(Sinatra trotted to where Rainy could see him. " Hey, Rainy... " He spoke softly. Slightly nervous)

(Hey Wolf! I've been trying to catch you but I've been real scatterbrained)

(Somehow... she knew that voice.
She stared at him like he was a puzzle she was missing some pieces to.
"Hi... uhm... I'm sorry you seem familier... have we... met before?" the overly large mare asks. Ajusting to see him better. The bed groans and strains under her...
It's pretty clear that she stays in here all day. Reading or watching the TV and eating. Keeping her mind distracted from the horrors of loosing her dear friend.
Her incredible size and belts keeping her pinned from performing... any rash desicions...

(TvT
I've not been on Colors as much. I'm sorry about being scatter brained. Are you ok?)

ShatterShore chomped another snack. " Anything else on your mind? " He asked his friend.

(Do you want to some Eon and BlackGrove fun, or Necro and GrimGrin? Maybe Amp and Neon?)

(Yeah. I'm alright.)

(The deerpony smiled sadly. " Yeah... It's been a while, Rainy.. It's me. Sinatra... " He said. Kind, tired eyes looking up at her.)

Tangle perks.
"O no! I think you've given me a great insight. Ok... I think I better get home! Thank you so much Shatter for listening." he swims to the door

(OOOOOOOOO! I love all those ideas! I CAN'T CHOOSE! ToT)

" Any time, bud! " Shore gives him a quick little salute.

(Well, we can do two if you wanna swap Tangled for mow? Or keep Tangled?)

(She looks... offended. At first at least.
"What? You have some nerve! That's my best friend and he DIED! He wasn't even a deer pony you... YOU!" She sits up in a rush! As if ready to lung at him... but her belts snap and she ends up kinda throwing herself on the floor instead!)

(Drama, you know I love it. TvT)

(I have an idea for Tangled if you don't mind still using him?

I'm cool with swapping if you want though)

(And ok. You've just seemed really down lately.
Hey, have you listened to Mother Mother's album Cry and Dance?)

(Sinatra stepped back. He winced. Rainy could catch a glimpse of his flank. His cutie mark was the same...
" Rainy I-... I can't tell you how but it's me. ")

(YES!
A LOT SINCE IT CAME OUT! THAT ALBUM IS BEAUTIFUL!)

(I've been struggling a lot Wolf. If I hadn't had a bit of a slap to the face and some help, I wouldn't be here right now. But I am. And I'm just trying to get in a better headspace.)

(I got no problem with using Tangled more! You wanna kick off the next bit?)

(Rainy looks up... seeing the bars and notes... Sinatra's unique and signature mark...
She... her eyes water. Tears streak her cheeks.
"S.... Sinatra?" her voice weakly quivers)

(I looooooove the songs It's Alright and The Bottom is a Rock! Can you say 'new coping songs?' Lol.

And... that's really scary Floof...)

(Ok!)

The next day Tangle goes to the hotel. Hoping to run into Violet. Deciding... he'd come up with an excuse to kiss him and test himself...

(Ok. So Eon or Neon? Or Necro?)

(It's Alright honestly made me fu.cking cry, and it still does.

And I know. but it's the truth. but i'm still here. and i'm glad i'm still here. n i'm trying to get better.. and be better to myself)

(Wanna do Eon?)

(It's so darn good. Everybody should listen to it...

And I'm glad Floof. I'm here for whatever I can offer. ToT)

(Ok! You want to kick Eon and Grove off?)

(If I get slow with replies, I'm still here, I just suck at multitasking)

(Lol. I get that.
I know we're doing two RP groups but you feel up to tagging a branch on Rainy and Sin's thing?)

(Sure!)

VioletGarland had a small saddlebag packed with a few things he had needed and was just now heading out the door to go to a nearby park.

---

After the startle the other daw with a group of mercinerries, everything seemed to calm down.

BlackGrove trotted up to Eon. The monster pony smiled. " Miss Eon... " He bowed dramatically. At least, dramatic for him given how he normally acted around her.

Eon lifts a brow with a chortle.
"O no. What's with the routine?" she asks... suddenly strikenthat somepony could be looking on and swivels her head to look around...

Tangle sees him.
"O hello! Fancy meeting you here... completely randomly..." he says... a bad liar

(Sinatra nods. " It's me, Rainy... Just-... " He looked at himself. " Given another chance.. ")

(Maybe next time? I don't wanna end up abandoning one. I'm alread- blaaaaaaah with everything so I'd feel bad if I couldn't keep up)

She starts to sit up on the floor... staring in utter disbelif.
At this point a nerd of aids come in... helping her back into the bed and resecuring her with belts... five now across her expansive middle...
As they leave Rainy can barely hold in her tears.
"A... a new chance...?" she says... she holding her pillow, as if almost trying to hide herself behind it.
Hide what she is from Sinatra)

Grove stands, chuckling. " Pardon me. I seem to be in a good mood this morning. " He levitates a strange letter with an unfamilliar wax seel on it. " It seems the current king taking my place is happy to have it's old ruler back. He informs me upon my return, he will gladly return full reign to me. So... Would you like to accompany me to my home for a short while.. " He offers Eon.

---

Violet tilts his head but giggles. " Hello Tangled. How are you? " He asked sweetly.

Eon blushes.
"I.... well..." She hadn't expected that!
"I need to talk to Wish first..." she finally says. Not accepting or denying.

Tangle 'skips' up.
"Yes hello. Say, are you busy?" he says almost all in one word

(" I can't explain it. Not here at least... but yes.. " Sinatra trotted over to the bed. " Why are you in here anyway? " )

("I... I was admitted... after you d... disappeared." She explains.
"I... I did and said some rash things I'm no proud of Sinatra..."
She keeps her face away from his. So ashamed he can see her like this...)

" Oh. " The face Grove pulled was almost amusing. He nodded. " Okay! I'll be here in Dawn. " He said, waving.

---

Violet gives the sea pony a curious look. " Not really, no. " He answered, tilting his head.

(Sinatra looked a bit hurt. " Rainy you-... " He was one to talk.. He was always getting scolded or sent to the hospital. He rubbed his foreleg with a hoof, looking guilty. " It's alright.. " He said, softly but confidently.

Eon gives him a smile and flies to her brother's place.
She walks in without knocking... she's kinda just that way...
Her heart was pounding!
See his kingdom... was this like... a couple's vacation?

Tangle smiles.
"O good! Swim? I mean... if you want..." he trying really too hard...

(She sniffles and looks at him finally, pillow still there.
"I'm sorry... I... I can hardly believe it... you're alive... Am I dreaming?" she asks really crying now!)

TwistedWish was in his sanctuary. In his room, spells and magic swirled and sparkled as he cleaned and sorted trinkets and book. " Eon? " He looked surprised. " Everything alright? "

---

Violet made a face. " TangledRoot, are you okay? You seem a little off today. "

(" No you're not. " He assures her, holding her hoof in his.)

Eon trots in... looking at the display.
"O I just.... what were you doing?" She asks curious now.

Tangle beams red.
"I... o... never better. Why do you ask?" he says, ears back

(She cups his hoof with her's.
"I don't care how you look or how this happened. I'm just so glad to have you back..." She says. Eyes down at their hooves)

(Hey, been meaning to tell you. On DA I'm working on a pony AU. My characters will show up there with different back stories but I promise I won't use your ponies or designs in it.
But you may start seeing everybody on DA sooner or later)

Book float over her head. " Cleaning. With everything that's happened my home has been a mess. " He said. Everything was set down gently, and he trotted over to Eon. " What brings you here so early? "

---

" You're acting strange. Or at least in a rush. " Violet answered.

(Oooh! Okie)

("I'm glad to be back... " He said, nuzzling his friend.)

Tangle flinches.
"I.... ok. Sorry..." he nervously
Eon trots closer.
"Hey,... I just wanted to ask you something. Grove... he's asking me to go to his kingdom..."

(Rainy nods.
"Ok... I'm sorry I got this bad.... Are you... here for long?")

(" I'm staying in Ponyville for a while. " He nodded. " Just-... take care of yourself.. " Sinatra tried his best to keep it together.)

" Don't be sorry. Is something on your mind? " Violet asked. " You know, if you're busy, you didn't have to go out of your way to see me today. " He laughed innocently.
If only he knew...

---

Twisted looked surprised, flipping through a book.
" Oh? Astera? Long trip.. He say why? " He asked. Twisted still had no idea that Grove and Eon were close...

(Got to go)

(Bye Wolf! I'll tty later)

(Rainy nods.
"Ok ok... I'll try to get better and visit... ok?")

Tangle chuckles nervously.
"I.... yeah. I'm sorry." he rubs his leg

Eon explains.
"He wants to show me his kingdom..."
