    Hmmmm... One shy, a bit meek, the other sincere, but a little empassioned. Would it work? It might work. No, wait, it -should- work. Possibly-probably! ...Maybe! It was a puzzler, indeed, but after a half-hour of self-indulgent thought, Matchie figured that it would probably work out just fine! Two more letters, off off and away!

    The first, to Cinnamon love! Hopefully, it wouldn't take too long for the mail to travel all the way to the gallapagos! But, with it, just a little prize - she had her ways, of course, making sure bookings and places were available. So, into each envelope went a ticket - specifically, a ticket for the Manehattan County Fair, which would take place in just under two weeks' time!

    "Congratulations! We've found you a match based on the information you've sent us! Your match is a young lady by the name of Spring Shimmer, a bit of a farming gal - white coat, blonde mane, and probably some sort of eye-colour. Sorry, didn't get that from her, either! Seeing as she's here in Fillydelphia and you're in the Gallapagos, I figure the two of you might meet in the 'middle' and spend some time in Manehattan - two tickets for the County Fair! You're welcome! Let me know if anything needs changing!

    Hope it works out!

    -Matchie"

    Stamp, sealed, smirked at, and that was one letter ready to go! Now, onto the local gal! A ticket for her too, of course. Thank goodness for publicly-funded services.

    "Congratulations, Spring Shimmer! We've found you a match based on the information you've sent us! Your match is a gal by the name of Cinnamon Love, a bit of spicy mare - look for a lady with a soft red coat fading down to black near her hooves. At least, that's what she told me! Seeing as she's all the way over on the Gallapagos and you're here in sweet little Fillydelphia, I figure the two of you might meet in the 'middle' and spend some time in Manehattan - two tickets for the County Fair! Hope you don't mind! Let me know if anything needs changing!

    One way or the other? Have fun!

    -Matchie"

    Aaaaand away went that letter! Well, all the way to the mailbox, at least. Whew! Two more down, and a dozen to go...

    Oh, darn it, she'd indulge a bit! A slip of her hoof under the desk, and bam! Bernard Coltibeau chocolates. Just two! Delicious!

  3. Ah, look at this, somebody who appreciates excellent games. Aaaand also you may wanna avoid using the three-letter f-word there, just a heads up, the community is after all G-rated!

    Anyhow, welcome to Canterlot! We have artists here of quite some variety, writers ranging from the mundane to the deranged, and a great much else! Just ask if you need pointers on anything!

  4. Name : Thunder Beat

    Gender : Stallion

    Gender preference (Optional) : Mare

    Location : I'm a traveller, so I could be just about anywhere. Born and raised in Fillydelphia though, so that's food for thought.

    Age : Young Stallion

    Species : Earth Pony

    Species preference (Optional) : Pony

    Cutie-Mark (Optional) : Pair of drumsticks over lightning bolts

    Anything else you think we should know?

    Keep in mind I practice often... so if you're not prepared to hear a lot of loud percussion... I might not be your type =P

    ((OOC: Ooh, this should be fun. ^_^))

    Name : Dazzle Dreams

    Gender : Female

    Gender preference : Either or.

    Location : Manehatten

    Age : Mare

    Species : Unicorn

    Species preference : Again, no real preference here.

    Cutie-Mark : A microphone stand.

    A match of musicians! Down-to-earth, friendly, a good match! One musician plus another was the start of a band, wasn't it? But, where to have them meet, where indeed... Not ponyville, that wasn't much of a romantic place. Appleoosia? Perhaps too rustic? Ah, Itailey! Beautiful place this time of year, wonderful vinyards, lush as anyone could ask for!

    First, to Thunder, who surely had been waiting a while!

    "Congratulations! We've found you a match based on the information you've sent us! Your match is a fellow musician by the name of Dazzle Dreams, a lightish-pink unicorn, and a showmare at that. Seeing as neither of you are really living in any one place, I've booked apointments for you at the Peter Mayle Inn in Itailey for the upcoming long weekend - seperate rooms, of course! Let me know if anything needs changing!

    Hope it works out!

    -Matchie"

    And, then another letter. Whee! This was fun again! No eight-ball, no random guessing, just straightforward matchmaking!

    "Congratulations! We've found you a match based on the information you've sent us! Your match is a fellow musician by the name of Thunder Beat, an earth stallion, and a drummer to boot! Seeing as neither of you are really living in any one place, I've booked apointments for you at the Peter Mayle Inn in Itailey for the upcoming long weekend - seperate rooms, of course! Let me know if anything needs changing!

    Hope it works out!

    -Matchie"

    Ah, there we go. And now, onto the next! Still, that darling letter in her desk practically -dared- her to embezzle just a bit...

  5. "I'm gonna go ahead and admit I have no idea how to raise a phoenix. Let's just start off with that." The quesion had likely been posed from unicorn to unicorn, Spike knew that one well enough. Still, he wanted to get that one footnote in the door before anything else. He scratched at a few charred scales absently, catching himself before he gave the itch too much attention with what were still fairly sharp little claws. It was amazing, really, he'd been able to belly-flop into molten lava without a scratch, but the cacophonious conflagration catastrophe charred his scales quickly enough, and left behind enough of a burn for it to itch. Rarity might have a fit later - for that matter, he fully expected to get an earful from the rest of Twilight's closest friends. After all, they were staying in Ponyville's now=temporarily-closed library; hopefully, Mayor Mare'd understand that it was an accident.

    For that matter, he could practically hear each of them chastising him now, somewhere in the back of his mind. "Did you save the Daring Do books?! Tell me they're alright!" "Spike, Darling, you look a fright! Come here, let me take a proper look at you... oh, this is simply dreadful!" "Oh dear, I'm so glad neither of you were hurt! Is Peewee alright? Do you need help taking care of her?" "Well, I s'pose if yer liable ta play with fire, burns might happen now'n again. Y'all need a place to stay?"

    ...Oddly enough, Spike couldn't imagine what Pinkie-Pie might have to say on the matter. For that matter, knowing Pinkie-Pie, trying to imagine her reaction in her voice might just end up with her actually speaking from inside his own head. She'd already managed to appear on the other side of a mirror, it wouldn't be much more of a stretch for her to start speaking directly into his mind, then jump out of his ear.

    But, they were not here; Shining Armor, however, was, and seeing as Twilight hadn't immediately polevaulted into an explanation, he'd try and start up the details. Another scratch at the back of his neck - ok, keep sharp claws off of damaged, itchy scales. So, instead, the baby dragon fidgeted a bit, though this quickly turned into hand gestures and accompanying shrugs, open-handed 'I don't know' looks, and counting the time off on his claws.

    "See, the thing is, phoenixes are all about fire, but I didn't actually know what they do, so I kind of figured I'd just ask Peewee what she could do. But, she didn't know either, so we just sort of started practising outside, and she started figuring out how to... well, set herself on fire a bit, I guess. But then it started getting dark, so we headed inside, and after a while we all hit the sack... Actually, from there, I don't know what happened, but when I woke up, her perch was on fire, and she was trying to get my attention!"

  6. "Manehatten isn't that far past Ponyville if we go south and it's not that bad a place... but if Germaney's really all you say it is, it might be worth the longer flight..."

    Might be? MIGHT be? But, no, don't be rude, obviously she just hadn't been. Normally, Ignition might not be quite so... precautious when it came to other pon- er... someone else's feelings, but she was still kind of really guilty about almost firing a huge firecannon at the gryphon, so, rather than derisive laughter, there was enthused explanation.

    "Might? Wow, you don't know the scene there, do you? Lemme put it this way. If I found out I was gonna die in a week, I would spend every minute of it there, and I'd probably only live half as long for it. That place is Bös. Forget Galas and balls and parties..."

    There was a grin, and a Clak! from the punk pegasus as she smashed her forehooves together.

    "These guys give the words 'nightlife' a whole new meaning... 'course, you gotta know which doors to knock. But you gotta keep a tight lip about it. No wimps, no dweebs, and most important of all, no snitches. You're cool, right?"

    Long and short of it, Ignition wasn't going to be showing up to work tomorrow afternoon - not after that little explosive escapade, and what the hay, she wanted to show this Gryphon the really good parts of Equestria, while letting loose herself. How could it not be fun? It wasn't like she was a pushover; she'd shrugged off having a half-yard mortar fired almost directly at her. And, she was taking wing from the nosy Cloudsdale airheads rather than tattling on her, so there was that. Besides, Gryphons were supposed to be tough, no way she was gonna wuss out because of the volume or the thugs hanging around. That, and having somebody bigger than her couldn't hurt. Ya never know.
