  1. -Princess Luna- Luna entered behind Ice and would pause in awe. The sights and sounds where almost overwhelming to her. She had seen a few bowling alleys in dreams before, but now she stood in one for real. Being the middle of the day, it was still fairly slow with a decent few lanes not in use. The alicorn’s eyes would be drawn to lane 12. “I think we should see about renting that one,” she would say to Ice as she walked up to the counter. “Myself and my friend here would like to rent Number 12 and all the things one needs to bowl.” ”You mean shoes and a ball-“ the attendant would look up and freeze for a moment before putting two pairs of bowling shoes on the counter. “That’s 5 bits please,” as he collected himself. “Balls are on the racks.” Luna would pay the bits and trot over to the lane and begin fiddling with the scoring system. Icy v. Luna would appear on the screen as she waited for Ice.
  2. -Midnight Oil- The batpony sighed heavily and nodded to the pegasus nearby. “Hm....” forcing a smile, he would look to the young bat pony. “It would appear that way, though I’m sure a foot of snow isn’t much more then what Ponyville cleans up normally, right?” He would take a deep breath, “I’m sure Rainbow Dash would know more. I believe she is the Weather Team leader, correct?” Midnight would put his hooves to his ears as a very loud remark was heard. “...and I think she may have just found out as well...” There has to be a reason for this late snowfall.” As the song began, Midnight would try his best not to get involved, though found himself joining in the chorus. ”Yes, We’re the best. ”Yes, We’re the best. Yes, We’re the best.” When Rainbow was free, he would have to go over theories with her, but for now...his nose would be drawn to the smell of fresh, warm punch.
  3. -Midnight Oil The bat pony rolled out of bed before the sun had fully resin over Ponyville. The longer nights where going to be the only thing he was going to miss from winter. He didn’t turn on a single light as he quickly made breakfast using the jar of Zap Apple Jam his patents had in their cupboard. The vacationing Lunar Guard was well aware of Ponyville’s habit of singing for random reasons and was well prepared to have to belt out a few notes as he opened the door. The shock that he got was one of snow not song. One foot of freshly fallen snow. “This has to be a practical joke, right?” He said aloud to nopony in-particular.
  4. Blizzard sighed deeply after taking a final bite of his carrots. A conflict was brewing inside the stallion as he though what might be best. On one hoof, if the mare would leave tonight, he could get back to his quiet and seclusion. On the other, he hated to admit it, but he may have been enjoying company...in moderation of course. ”The temperature is dropping and a nasty snow squall is due to come through sometime this evening.” Pausing, he reluctantly looked to the ceiling. “I can attempt to hold off the storm for an hour or two, or.....” he gulped, “You can spend the night....” Blizzard couldn’t believe the words that had come from his muzzle.
  5. Luna would quickly jot down a note for her sister explaining where she had gotten off to. In the back of her head she had to wonder where Celestia had vanished to as well. Perhaps she too had decided to go Bowling. With a quick glow of her horn and a floating quill and parchment, the note would be complete as she looked to Ice Storm. With a large grin, the alicorn would quickly leave the house and be standing in the middle of the street waiting for her friend. "I think the add said the Bowling Lanes where this way. Down an Ally I believe." as she pointed a hoof. After a rather short walk...being quite literally only a few blocks down the street, a rather inconspicuous structure stood before them. It matched most of the other buildings in Silver Shoals in design with the exception of the porch supports made to look like a stack of bowling pins. Luna looked to Ice Storm, her grin beginning to fade. "Perhaps...you should go in first?" she said with hesitation in her voice. "I...I do not want to draw attention to myself..."
  6. Blizzard had made his way back to proper Equestria from the Frozen North. He hated these trips, though the seemed to be needed more often; At least it was winter in the towns and villages for at least another six weeks according to his calendar. Little did he know, a little groundhog in Coudsdale was about to complicate things. Night had just fallen as Blizzard Blitz reached the outskirts Ponyville. "Hmmm." he mumbled to himself as the snow barley crunched. "Barely an inch...Those weather pegasi are slacking." The unicorn would glare as he looked up into the clouds...or lack there of. Levitating out his personal calendar, he would grin. "Tomorrow's Friday. I think the fillies of Ponyville deserve at least one snow day." With a glow of his horn, a vortex of Nimbostratus Clouds would appear in the sky over Ponyville. "I'd say about a foot should do it. Nice, thick, packing snow." With a slight grin, the unicorn would make his way to his rather small camp near the edge of the Everfree Forest. When the creatures of Ponyville woke up they where sure going to be in for a surprise.
  7. This turned out very well. Here’s hoping that if you have time you can do one of Blizzard and Glitter from our RP in the updated style.
  8. -Princess Luna The alicorn appreciated Ice Storm’s help with the dishes. She would give the unicorn a quick hug before looking back at the add. “What is this gutter you speak of?” Luna herself had never been bowling as well. “I’m sure that both of us will achieve at least one ball of gutter.” Luna would take a much closer look at the add and grin. “It says today is bargain day,” as she began to trot in place. “Oh what luck.” She would quickly run upstairs to her room and grab some bits and return to the kitchen. “I am ready if you ate Ice Storm,” as she tried to hide her eagerness.
  9. First post is up about the night of winter. Please start your post there.
  10. Winter Un-Wraped Winter had been fairly mild this year in Ponyville. From only trace amounts of snow at one time to the lack of any real subzero temperatures, most ponies took their last winters sleep with the knowledge that tomorrow was going to be a breeze compared to years past. Among the ponies in town on the last night of winter was Midnight Oil. Lately it seemed he had found himself in Ponyville for all of the local holidays. The purpose of this trip however was to visit family who had moved to the town. As he lay in bed trying to sleep, he would pull out a book showcasing the traditions of other towns in Equestria. Needless to say, this book did not hold his attention long and he was soon fast asleep.
  11. Blizzard was surprised, though didn't show it through his cold exterior that the green unicorn had decided to stay for dinner. "Wonderful," he would say as he began rummage through the old backpack in the corner. "Ah, there it is," he would mumble loudly before levitating a old standard issue mess kit to Glitter. It was dated to be from 5 years before the return of Nightmare Moon. He would grab himself just a fork that appeared to be from another mess kit. Next he remove the lids from the cans and float one to his dinner guest. The icy unicorn would eat his straight from the can. Taking his first bite, he would stop. "Hm..." before setting his down and returning to his crate of supplies. "There it is," as he pulled out a small pack of spices. He would sprinkle sparingly some rosemary upon his meal before offering the small choice of spices to Glitter. When Glitter asked about what spell he's been practicing, he would chuckle as a small grin would appear on his muzzle. "Oh you know, just the standards from 'Advanced Spells.' I'm quite proud of my latest one...I’m working on the temporary wing spell, but adjusting it to my own, unique needs.” Taking another bite of his meal, he would look to Glitter to try to gage her expression. "So...how are your carrots?"
  12. With spring just starting, it’s time to get winter wrapped up in Equestria, or will spring never come. looking for both cast and OCs to help get the town of choice cleaned up. Ponyville seems the most logical choice though it seems to be the most used for RPs and would need some cast characters. I’m open to ideas.
  13. -Princess Luna The alicorn would attempt to force a smile. “I...I guess retirement was not what I was expecting now that novelty has worn off.” It would take a few moments but her tears would begin to dry up. “I...I guess I was expecting a permanent vacation. Celestia may just have been more prepared then I when it comes to medial matters. Perhaps in my mind I expected being called upon as Twilight and her friends had been so many times.” She would take a few deep breaths. “Perhaps something to take my mind off this situation.” Looking round, she would take note of a calendar on the wall nearby. “Perhaps that?” As she pointed to the add for the local bowling alley.
  14. Blizzard would grunt and roll his eyes. "I have been practicing a long time...." He would close one of the spellbooks, the parchment inside. "As for my specialty in school," he would cringe. "Apparently I was a failure." The stallion was being truthful in his own eyes. How can somepony attend the 'School for Gifted Unicorns' and not receive any instruction form Princess Celestia at all? A frown would quickly appear on the unicorn's muzzle as Glitter had seemed to press a button. He would quickly attempt to change the subject however as his carrots where almost ready to eat. He would slowly walk over and remove them from the pot the cans had been cooking in. A small blast from his horn would turn the boiling water into just a warm mix. Walking over to a improvised shelf he would remove a rather old looking ration tin and bring it back to the pot. "Today is a special occasion. It's been at least...well a long time since I had company." As he poured a bit of brown substance into the pot, he would begin to stir it. "EUP ration coco," he would say with a small grin before pouring it into two tin cups. "If you don't wish to stay for dinner, at least have some chilled coco. I would say hot but I think I may have taken it down a few two many degrees for that." He would take a drink himself to prove it was safe and their where no tricks.
  15. Luna would take a bite of the ice cream and grin. "T'is wonderful. I hope that you have made some for yourself as well." It had been so long...or at least it felt that way to the retired princess since she had any food that was not prepared by sister or herself...but mostly Celestia. When Ice asked where the wash cloths where, she paused in thought. When she could not think of the wash cloths location, a large frown appeared to her muzzle. "I....I do not know Ice Storm..." The alicron's eyes began to water as she took another large bite of her ice cream, though this one out of self pity. "I can not even do the simple task of a foal's chores. Between 1000 years on the moon and paroling the dream realm..." She would look to Ice Storm as her watery eyes turned to tears.
  16. The alicorn smiled when Ice said she would make the Ice Cream for her. “Ah, yes. The kitchen...” Luna’s smile quickly failed. “It’s...this way.” As she pointed a hoof behind her. She had left the kitchen in quite disarray for her earlier attempts of cooking and was ashamed by it’s appearance. “Here we are. Celestia would be cross with me if she saw it’s present condition.The good news though...” as she levitated a jar down from a cupboard. “We have plenty of Midnight Raspberries.”
  17. Blizzard would levitate two cans of carrots from the supply crate. The cans where dated, but as like most things in the frozen north, the cold preserved things much longer. Next he would put a cooking grate over the small fire and place a pot upon it. He would then cast a small snow spell to fill the pot. The heat from the fire would quickly turn it into water. He would take the lids off the carrot cans and place them whole into the boiling water to cook. An old EUP field cooking trick. Blizzard roll his eyes as he heard Glitter read the old nameplate aloud. "The B stands for Blizzard," he barked. "Food should be ready shortly...if you wish to stay. If not, the nearest outpost is about an hour trot due south, though I bet you knew that when you decided to follow me." Quietly, the stallion would walk over to his desk where the two magic books where laid out, not really paying much attention to Glitter. "Now, perhaps if I combine this spell with the wing one...." he mumbled "That may work..."
  18. "Celestia and Twilight have been keeping in touch quite regularly. As for making friends here...." The alicron would would sigh deeply. "We have made a few...acquaintances?" The hesitation in her voice told the story. "Ice Storm, I wish for you to be honest with me. Do you find me....intimidating?" Luna would frown as she slouched into the couch and a frown appeared upon her muzzle. "Celestia always the more social of us though it seems many of our new neighbors have stopped to greet us, though that is the extent of our interactions. Do I need to take the initiative? I do not wish to seem needy..." "On the subject of Ice Cream...Perhaps some 'Midnight Raspberry' would cheer me up?" as she gave the mare a small pout.
  19. Looks amazing as usual! Thank You!
  20. Blizzard nodded ans he motioned for Glitter and her dog to follow. Behind the walls was an igloo. On second glace it was easy to tell the door had been made out of wood from supply crates. With a glow of his horn, the door would swing open. The stallion would then push his newly acquired supplies in and motion for the two to follow. Inside, the igloo was larger then it had appeared from the outside. Hanging from the center was a small, but rather impressive ice chandelier. Most of the furniture was made from ice or snow, with the occasional made from reused lumber that had been scavenged or repurposed crates. One item that was not so carefully placed was an old backpack baring the insignia of the Royal Guard, and a dated one at that. The name-tag would read B. Blitz. Elsewhere would be a bookshelf containing books about weather, snow and ice, along with other spellbooks. Two books would be laying out on his table. The first opened to a temporary wings spell, the other to a spell about ice projection. A quill and paper was nearby. Blizzard would light a small fire before proceeding to open his new crate. "Hm.." He would say not really paying attention to where Glitter may have been in his igloo. "Carrots or corn, which to make for dinner...if you wish to stay that it. I'd imagine you have quite a ways to travel back to your outpost."
  21. If you have time, I'd love to see your take on Midnight Oil Pose is up to you.
  22. Blizzard would glare at Koda when he was licked. In the back of his head, all he could think about was the dog's tongue sticking to his coat the same was a ponies might to a light pole. Turning his attention to to Glitter, he would sigh when she asked to help with his supplies. "If you have nothing better to do...." he would trail off. "You where going to follow me anyway. Might as well get something out of it." The tone of the unicorn's voice was sarcastic, yet true. "My home is just a few clicks north of here. Follow me." Blizzard would freeze and his cold, gray eyes narrow. "I guess that depends on what kinds of magic you consider to be useful to Equestria and what kind has you making Ice Cream." he would say with a bit of venom in his voice emphasizing the latter option. Glitter Drops had seemed to strike a nerve. "We better get moving. Sun is about to set." as he began walking due north. Ten foot high snow drifts could be seen in the distance, though not like any naturally occurring ones as they seemed to form an outer wall. Behind them, Blizzard's home. "We're almost there," as he pointed a hoof and waited for them to catch up.
