Lilia

Carbonated? Where did you find those?

The new Skittles are good, a nice trick to pull on people...taste each color, enjoy the flavors that don't match....

Anything either super sweet or sour. I just can't resist Skittles, any kind of Skittles....

Sandy nodded, grinning at Val as she yawned. The excitement of the day had finally caught up with her.

"It must be...how wonderful it would be to live underwater...as for a magic, that's a question for a unicorn..."she murmured, nuzzling against Val for both warmth and companionship. The exhaustion was like a blanket for her, soothing the sleep into her weary body.

Try Guiding Star or Shining Sun.

I read it! GL would be a great mentor for my colt, Shadowe Flare....I hope she gets approved!

I'm a Sweetie Belle according to this (Yes, it's a dead match) and I'm a Princess Celestia per my Zodiac.

Hmm...Which option....? Be a companion like Rose or Amy or be a minion.....Well...if there's a Captain Jack, there's gotta be...an Amy. Please let me be Amelia Pond.

EDIT: If it's anything Doctor Who related, I am SO there, even if it's just to lurk and read.

My hobbies aren't hobbies....

Video Games (No FPS)

Cooking (I'm a trucker with an almost full kitchen in the Sleeper...I love cooking)

Cleaning (I'm CDO...which is like OCD but the letters are in order)

Sewing (If it can be fixed with needle and thread, by Odin, I'm doing it!)

Watching old TV shows (John Doe, The Pretender, Family Matters, Stargate SG-1, Stargate Atlantis, Star Trek: The Next Generation, Burn Notice...and on and on....)

Reading (No non-fiction. If I can read it, I will probably like it....I need a new Kindle first though)

Welcome! Why is AJ so low on the list for you? Otherwise: somepony else with experience! Yay!

Welcome! We hope you have lots of fun with us!

Sandy blushed darker, Val's truth giving her a subtle pleasure. Hearing Moongazer's statement, she smiled again.

"Any male would love to be with you, Miss Moongazer...and the ocean is where I'm near. It's like Val said...a big lake that's thousands of miles across...it shimmers so prettily in the sunset..." She stated, grinning at Val before kissing him.

Moongazer smiled serenely, looking at the two while dreaming about seeing the ocean.

"I wish I could see the ocean with you two...but it is late and now sleep is due. Rest, my landbound pony friends. We sea-ponies of the lake will make sure no harm comes to your end." She said, gently pushing the two ponies to the edge of the lake where they could climb out easily.

Cosmopolitan and Snap Shot entered the building of the photo loft, both of them noticing three pegasi in the AeroBlades uniform.

"Ah, you must be members of the AeroBlades. I am Cosmopolitan, editor of Manehattan's Fashionista Magazine. This is Snap Shot, my photographer. It is a pleasure to meet each of you " Cosmoplitan smiled, bowing to each of the three AeroBlades in turn.

Cosmopolitan paced inside her Manhattan meeting room, trying to decide if she was handling the write and interviews of the AeroBlades. She had already selected her photographer, and she wanted to be assured that only the best would interview these pegasi.

" I'm doing the interviews then. And Snap Shot is my photographer. Good. The photo loft is scheduled for this, thank Celestia. How am I going to...oh, yes. I know. Snap, let's go. We have to be st the loft give minutes ago!" the pink mare declared, her lime green mane styled in its typical bun and trail curl. She paused to throw on her red and white scarf, her saddle bag falling onto her as she dashed out the door that led to the way to the photo loft.

Sandy sighed in subdued pleasure, Val's words giving her all over again.

I love you, too, Val. Moongazer, you really are a wonderful pony...why wouldn't a male sea-pony like you?" She asked, nuzzling Val.

Moongazer looked at Val, curiosity lighting her eyes.

"The ocean? I've been here my whole life. What is an ocean? As far as I know, the only sea-ponies left are here in Nimbusgait Lake..." she sighed, curious aty what Val meant by the word ocean.

Sandy's jaw dropped, her question about how Moongazer knew her name asked by Val. She blushed when he complimented her, smiling at him.

I'm not that pretty, Val..." She muttered, blushing darker.

The sea-pony laughed, nodding as she saw the enthusiasm of Sandy.

"I hear from the occasional pegasus from the bay about a mare that swam like a sea-pony and was named Sandy. The dragon made meeting you suture handy. Valoren, you must truly love her...of that I can be sure." The sea-pony responded, watching the two with envy.

Character Summary: Hope grew up in a family of fashionable ponies whose only desire in their lives was to show off just how much they had. She herself despised the idea of flaunting what didn't need flaunting and frequently stated as much to her mother and father. It was when she went out shopping that she saw just the thing she wanted, a little gold locket shaped like a heart. She frequently returned to the jewelery shop to look at all the pretty bracelets, necklaces and rings. One day, she asked the shop owner if she could watch him make a locket like the one in the window. With his acknowledgement, she was filled with glee. She had been wanting to see how the works of art, as she saw them, were created. It was then that she decided that she would make the very things she adored for other ponies. She started when the shop keeper noticed her cutie mark had appeared, making a small bracelet of silver and bronze for her mother. When she brought it home and gave it to her mother, she realized that her mother hated anything not made of gold or of some monetary value. She watched in sorrow as her mother disposed of her creation, something she had made with love for the mare that was supposed to be a good influence on her.

After her mother so callously threw out her work, Hope resolved to make everypony something that they would treasure for their lives. She spent most of her free time with the jeweller that had helped her realize her calling, learning how to work the precious metals into shapes and designs that appealed to all ponies. When she turned of age, she was told that not only was the shop she had worked in now hers but that she was like a daughter to the now-old stallion that had watched her grow up and learn her craft. Hope is a generous and kind mare, who won't take any kind of fuss from the richer clients. She frequently donates items that she sees as slightly flawed to the less fortunate ponies of Trottingham, hoping that by giving something to them she can make amends for their status and treatment from other ponies. However, Hope can be arrogant about her work and will push a piece on a pony if they show the slightest desire for it. She hates interviews and will deliberately avoid reporters if they seek her out.

Sapphire glanced at Lilia, the twisted smile still on her face.

"Such a let down...Lilia, darling, get me the photo album. Bass, sit and have some of my bread...of you'll kiss my daughter first." she grinned, watching her daughter blush at both requests.

Lilia sighed at her mother's request. She was blushing from both embarrassment and desire to kiss Bass again.

"Nice, huh? Oh, boy...the photo album...yay..."she sighed, the blush threatening to turn her mane pink.

Sandy grinned at Val, watching the sea-pony with glee. She knew in her heart that he wouldn't leave her and she trusted this sea-pony inexplicably.

The sea-pony took Val's hoof in her fin, beaming at the couple before her.

"Hello Valoren Seeker. I am Moongazer, I watch over the Nimbusgait Lakes. This beautiul mare must be Sandy Shores, truly a mare that is no bore..." The sea-pony introduced, grinning at Sandy and Val. She watched as Sandy's muzzle dropped, the surprise in her eyes clear.

Lilia sighed, blushing when Bass called her lovely. She kept quiet, watching her mom got any sign that she may need to intervene.

Sapphire smiled, giving Bass a return bow before looking at her second eldest.

"Oh? You're the son of Alto and Nickle? Did they tell you about the time Nickle and Refreshing Storm tried to get Alto to sing rock and roll music? Ah, come in. Lilia, I made Apple Bread...your favorite. Next to dandelion salad." she bubbled, recalling the event with a twisted giggle.

Lilia laughed, bumping back against Bass. She stopped before a pale blue house, hesitating a moment before knocking on the door.

"Mom? It's Lilia. Cherry told me you--ahh! Mother!" she called, jumping in shock when the door flew open to reveal a petite red unicorn with a triple moon cutie mark.

"Hello, Lilia darling. You must be the gentlecolt that took my daughter on a date...I'm Sapphire Shine, mother of the whole quartet of Bloom sisters. What is your name, Dearie?" the unicorn asked, a mischievous smile lighting her eyes.

Sandy laughed in delight, the pony belonging to the form proving the myths hadn't died.

"You're a sea-pony! Val, look! I thought that sea-ponies were gone..." She said, watching Val rise from the lake in his bubble.

The sea-pony laughed, nodding as she saw the enthusiasm of Sandy.

"Indeed I am. What brings you here, pony of the land?" The sea-pony asked, her laughter bright as she popped the bubble that held Val.

Lilia grinned, imagining what could possibly be useful to Bass that she couldn't share.

"What do you mean, useful? There is absolutely nothing useful about my past...that I know of anyway. Embarrassing, yes, but useful? Doubtful..." she smiled, trying to not to giggle at Bass's mock evil laugh.

Lilia chucked, gesturing with her hoof the general direction they had to go.

"Mom is a few minutes west of here...on Harvest Lane. Fair warning...mom isn't shy about embarrassing anypony." she smiled, turning to lead the way. She flashed a charming smile over her shoulder for Bass, taking an opportunity to flirt with him a bit.

Lilia blushed again, laughing softly at the idea that the necklace was an offering.

"An offering? I just thought it was pretty...I'm with you even if your mom doesn't like me. I just hope she does...I've... I've never met anypony else's parents before..." she said, whispering the last sentence.

Sandy ran alongside Val, occasionally sliding on the loose rocks. She charged, praying to Celestia that they would make it to the lake. It felt like hours of running before the lake reached her eyes. She risked looking back to see the dragon was still close behind them.

"Almost...there...Val...The dragon's....slowing down." She panted, adrenaline giving her the push she needed. Water closed over her head, the music that was faint from the Roughrider Ridges now clear as bells to her.

"You're new, aren't you? Don't worry, We'll hurry!" A voice said from below. A form arose from the lake and Sandy gasped. Was she seeing things in her fear now?
