When I fell off a bike it fell on my head and near split it open. And with no brain damagagagagagagagagagagaae. ^_^

1) Twilight 2) Doctor Whooves (Not a Who fan, just love puns) 3) Never really read ships too often, but, for the sake of Kryptchild, Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo You owe me, Krypt! XD

Yes. And right now I am feeling just FABULOUS~ Oh God that hurt to say that

It used to be a thing. There would be a monthly theme for writers to write stuff and then they'd be submitted and rated. Good practice and good fun I feel

Yes. And it 'tis, it 'tis a GLORIOUS thing~

Now that is a good question...hmm... I'd want it to be something that would last a bit... I would bring the WriteFriends back honestly, that was great fun when I did it and never really got a chance to do it again. And lots more people better take part >:l

Darkest Dawn trudged through the cold weather of these badlands that were laid before him, the pegasus shivering slightly, trying to hover slightly and only managing to do so, "[colour=#b22222]Ugh, why do I take up these assignments again?...Oh yeah, 'cause nopony else at the University would...bunch of self righteous professors with their muzzles in text instead of the class...[/colour]" Dawn stated angrily as he continued on his way, sighing as he did to express his discontent, "[colour=#b22222]Easy, Dawn...[/colour]" He tried to reassure himself as he continued. As you no doubt would have guessed by this point, Dawn wasn't used to this sort of thing, and had certainly never set hoof in these badlands before. Part of him never wanted to again but his more rational side of thought brought him back to the reality of his situation. The pegasus was employed as an assistant in the University of Canterlot to one of the leading professors of astronomy there. Due to his past clean record with them the faculty there decided he was 'perfect' for a trip to the badlands to investigate some strange astrological signs coming from the direction of the badlands. "[colour=#b22222]Let's see, there's got to be some place about here where some ponies could find shelter.[/colour]" The pegasus hovered on, looking around him for a sign of anywhere useful, and more to the point, warm. He nearly assumed he was lost until he spotted a nearby building. He opened up his map and examined his locations according to the few stars he could see above him, "[colour=#b22222]Hmmm...an inn! Finally![/colour]" He stated with enthusiasm as he quickly made his way there. Upon opening the door to the establishment, Dawn felt he was instantly set upon by the eyes of everypony and creature in this place. He made his way slowly over to the bar and sat down for a bit, resting his wings and hooves. As he did he examined his map and a letter from his employers once again, stating the location he had to go to, where the stars back in Canterlot were hinting towards. "[colour=#b22222]Hmmm...[/colour]" Dawn pondered as he looked around. He spotted a group of individuals all gathered roughly around the same area. He spotted one with a hammer and even a griffon, "[colour=#b22222]Hm.[/colour]" He stated as he did something he wouldn't normally do. He approached the decently sized group, they all looked ready for action and familiar with the local area, so he figured this ones would be as good as any, "[colour=#b22222]Excuse me...Sorry to interrupt all of you but, I'm looking for this one place, 'Mount Naskralar'. I was wondering if any of you knew how to get to there. I sort've overheard you guys talking about it...If you all are heading there, would I be able to tag along?[/colour]" He inquired.

Aww man don't even get me started. Coolest of the cool that griffon lad. And I've met....several griffons in my time. So that's says something in some perspective!

Hmmmm...most likely 'cause 'Fish and Chips' is a phrase people are more used to when speaking of that particular dish. As for fries and chips, no clue, just how regional dialects work I suppose. I say this yet I doubt any of this is a 'good answer' Thanks much for the question, Pony Keep 'em coming, people

'Cause hey, why not? Everypony and their mother seems to have one of these. Even if this does just become a baron wasteland of a thread it should be fun while it lasts. So Canterlot...Read to get this blue, hoodie wearing, Irish brony's answers? Then... [colour=#40e0d0]Ask [/colour][colour=#0000cd]Away!![/colour] And have fun

Would you appreciate hugs? *Opens hooves* Also I changed my avatar back to commemorate your awesomeness ^_^

Dawn smiled as Promontory responded, however tilting his head slightly, "[colour=#b22222]Huh...monkey cart?...Well if it'll have room I suppose. Come on, let's get on this train. Ponyville awaits.[/colour]" Dawn continued as he made his way towards the train. Upon reaching said 'monkey cart', Dawn saw there was a slight jump to get onto the cart, "[colour=#b22222]Hmmm...Promontory, give me a second.[/colour]" The pegasus stated as he looked around for anything useful. He reached into the cart and saw what looked like a wide, slim but sturdy plank of wood. The black coated stallion removed it briefly from the cart and propped it up against the train cart as a sort of makeshift ramp. Dawn then proceeded to take a rather hefty bag from his cart, the one he considered to be the most important, one that contained a vast majority of his astrology equipment. Using said makeshift ramp the pegasus wheeled the bag up onto the train car, making sure it was secure on the ground. He turned to the stallion with a grin, "[colour=#b22222]I hardly ever let this bag out of my sight, got to make sure this stuff is safe. So, excited to see Ponyville? I know I am.[/colour]"

Colton sighed as Gerrard did, thinking he may have not made the best first impression on the griffon. Regardless of this though he kept his eyes on the current predicament, that being the injured mare who had asked him a question. He looked back at the sling and opened it up with his mouth, "[colour=#40e0d0]This? Eh not much really. An ad for a job, some bird seed, my journal and just some general survival and emergency stuff...though I seem to be running low on the latter.[/colour]" Colton stated as he lifted out every item he mentioned one by one and set them on the floor in front of them. "[colour=#40e0d0]This journal I've had for years now, like I never go anywhere without it.[/colour]" The pegasus continued as he flicked through various pages, giving quick glances of some of the locations the two of them had been in the past, "[colour=#40e0d0]Apart from that, not much else...[/colour]" Colton finished. The pegasus then turned his attention to the griffon he had recently lectured. He sighed as Sparks gave him a look of somewhat expectation. The white pegasus got to his hooves and walked over towards Gerrard, "[colour=#40e0d0]Be back in a second.[/colour]" Colton ended, leaving his personal effects where he laid them. "[colour=#40e0d0]Hey uh...Gerrard? Sorry for sorta being snappy back there...Wasn't really right of me to go at you like that just 'cause this is how you handle a situation...as odd as I may see it...I'm sorry. I think you and I have gotten off to a wrong start on this whole thing sooo...[/colour]" Colton started as he lifted a hoof towards the griffon, "[colour=#40e0d0]...Can we...start over?[/colour]" He wondered, not knowing if he was going to get a positive answer. He had hoped so though.

Well that was thoroughly enjoyable Tales was awesome, Brained and Noctriix were awesome, the art was awesome and the whole thing was AWESOME Oh and hey, I was mentioned, that was nice ^_^ Thanks, Brained

A year and 19 days ago, I never thought I'd be doing something like this, but, here goes nothing... Post number[colour=#ff0000] [/colour][colour=#FF0000] [/colour][colour=#FF0000]2000! [/colour] Now I know what you may be thinking, and no, this thread isn't dedicated to my 2000th post, that would be both silly and self-centered of me considering people would see it as nothing all that special. However, I do consider it a big milestone for myself, it took me long enough and through more drama than I'd be willing to admit but I'm now at a Wonderbolt's level, which just puts a big old smile on my face But now that that's out of the way, I'll give the reason I made this thread in the first place. Canterlot is a magnificent place, it really is. I know my opinion isn't the most credible given this is my first forum but I'm sure most of you reading this can agree that this site is more than worth your time and your membership. I have way too many thanks I can give to this place that I can even remember them in one sitting, so I figured, hey, I'm sure other people have nice things to say about Canterlot...why not give them a place to do it. So, bronies and or pegasisters alike, I give you all for your posting: [colour=#ff0000]THE[/colour] [colour=#ffd700]GREAT[/colour] [colour=#00ff00]AND[/colour] [colour=#0000cd]POWERFUL[/colour] [colour=#800080]CANTERLOT[/colour] '[colour=#ff8c00]THANK YOU[/colour]' [colour=#ee82ee]THREAD! [/colour] Rolls right off the tongue, I know More to the point and past all the bright colours and large text, this thread is being made for the express purpose of thanking Canterlot and all the people in it. Somebody did a request for you and you wanna make your gratitude known and give them a nice little shout-out? Post here. Somebody on Canterlot brighten up your day a lot and you want them to be known as a truly awesome person? Post here. Or just anything you're thankful for here on Canterlot, go nuts! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ I'll start off with my thanks to get it out of the way. I have no one individual person I can thank for my enjoyment on Canterlot, that just wouldn't be fair. Canterlot and it's 4000+ beautiful people have made this place memorable and enjoyable simply by being here. Way back when I first came on here I had 1)No knowledge of how the internet worked 2)No sense whatsoever (Still not sure on that last one though ) and Canterlot was a wonderful place for me to amend those issues, all the people I met (With some exceptions, you know who you are ) helped me along that road, and I don't regret any of it, even for a second. For a more specific list of thanks though I'll give some names of some users so you can admire their awesomeness. Tenkan. IRockZ28. Angie Cakes. Appoline Allura. Applicance. Armony. Ashton SSG. Asthmatic Pegasus. GingerMint. Haserman. BrainedBySaucepans. Brony-Vas-Normandy. Browneh. CrescentBlaze. CrimsonNova. CrossStitch. Deathsongx3. Dusty. The entire LPW crew from way back in the day, including: Fawkes, Davroth, Imagination, Crystalheart, Microchip, NastyMann, NoedigJk471, Penumbra, Tywin, SilverSwirl and of course, Sulvuss. Neoniie. Broniesforlife. LordBrony9. Gerrard. ThunderFlash. Philthetimewizard. The-Jaded-Bug. Greed. daftBLUE. Frenzyhero. Hobbes574. Kunio18. And how could I forget, SkyMunki. Over the past year these people have been the most friendly, awesome and creative individuals I've ever met, no joke. Some I've fallen out of contact with but I wish them every good fortune in the future. My thanks go out to all of Canterlot's amazing staff who help make the site what it is and one big old hug goes out to our two awesome admins, Artax and Mane. Seriously guys, you rock, big time. And I suppose that's about it really, I'm all thanked out Thanks for your time, Canterlot. Feel free to post or not to post a reply stating your thanks. And as always, this is Conor Colton, signing off, see y'all around the forums, and have a good pony day

Despite this not being an Irish thing I feel compelled to give thanks on this day as well. I thank all you wonderful people on this site for how awesome you've been over the past year. It feels like it's been hardly anytime at all yet I wouldn't give up any of it for the world. You Canterlot peoples have truly made these place a wonderful and amazing getaway from me, I may sound like a broken record but I thank each and every one of you 4000+ people. Some of which I've met, some I haven't but in the grand scheme of things I thank them for adding that little bit each time that makes Canterlot what it is. I thank those on here who have been there for me (Also put up with my nonsense, you know who you are ) and those who have say, RPed with me, talked with me, worked with me, it's all very much appreciated. So again, this isn't something I really do given I don't particularly celebrate Thanksgiving but...Thanks Canterlot, keep awesome

Hello there all you beautiful Canterlot readers and general peoples. It's me, Conor Colton! Back again with another chapter for all y'all. Firstly. Yes. Took me long enough Secondly. With this new season of ponies I intend to have something written for you guys every week if I can (Not being specific with what I write due to other ideas seeping into my brains ) And now, for something I really should have done ages ago. STORY UPDATE! Chapter Twelve has been linked in the original post number 1 here. Go read it! Possibly enjoy yourselves! (PS. I really mean that weekly updates thing this time )

Dawn stopped the cart at the station, glancing to see if they had made it in time, he thanked Celestia that this was the case and started finding somewhere to put his things. He looked around as he searched for a place to load his items and saw all manner of interesting sights in the creatures that were around him. There were Griffons, Zebras, all manner of ponies and pets, all no doubt either coming or leaving Canterlot. Then he realized he was now one of those ponies. He finished loading his things into the train, happy with where everything went, so he took this time to get one honest last look at the city for a while. He rested up against the cart he had pulled here and just simply watched the crowds roam past, one by one, pony by pony by pony; truly it was a meaningful and precious sight to the pegasus. No more would he see crowds of this magnitude in his everyday life. No more would he be bumping shoulders with strange ponies on a daily basis. And finally, no more would he sit in a place he wasn't truly happy with, and would start on a new chapter in his life. Dawn wouldn't want to openly admit it but a slight sentimental smile came over his face, happy with his current situation. Of course he then remembered that not everything was set in stone as he saw Promontory walking back towards him. The pegasus held his smile as he walked to meet the earth pony half way to ask how his conversation with the 'steamer' went, "[colour=#b22222]So how'd it go? What'd he say?[/colour]" Dawn wondered as he stood still, looking back to see if his bags were all still packed away in a luggage cart, luckily they were safe and sound.

Colton almost completely disregarded Gerrard's amputation 'joke' he hoped as he offered helped to lift Telki off of the ground, being careful with her knee, "[colour=#40e0d0]Easy now, let's get you up. No sense in hanging about down there.[/colour]" Colton stated as he got the mare to a more stable and comfortable position, Sparks helping her up as best he could. Once that was taken care of, Colton turned to Gerrard in response to his previous statements, "[colour=#40e0d0]Gerrard I never said she was a criminal, now quit the wise cracks and let me see if there's anything of use in that bag.[/colour]" Colton said as he took a look inside said kit Gerrard brought out. "[colour=#40e0d0]Huh, you weren't kidding when you said first aid.[/colour]" Colton smirked as he looked through to see if they had anything that could be of use. Luckily his search turned up fruitful and he saw they had pretty much everything they needed. "[colour=#40e0d0]Okay, good, have everything. Gerrard is there any clinics or anything like that close by, or would we just have to turn around?[/colour]" Colton asked as he once again offered Telki a hoof, lifting her carefully and walking slowly outside, being careful not to hurt anything. Once the two ponies got outside, Colton set her back down and made sure her leg wasn't twisted and lay in a proper position. "[colour=#40e0d0]Doesn't look too bad. May hurt a lot but nothing a little time and relaxation wouldn't fix.[/colour]" He stated reassuringly as he decided he should try and get to know this pony as best her could, "[colour=#40e0d0]You probably guessed by now but, my name's Colton, Colton Cloudkicker. And...what are you doing all the way out here?[/colour]" He wondered.

Figures! I go on a podcast and my internet gives out the night after, making it impossible to watch said podcast for two days! Either way though, this was amazing to be on and an experience I will surely remember I thank you wonderful podcast people and all you wonderful Canterlot people, your continued kindness means a great deal

Well I've been on the site for a bit, and even though I'm not the most accomplished RPer I think I have a good grasp of how it all works. I'd be more than happy to help in this situation Are you looking for a step by step from the very beginning or do you already get some of the more basic concepts? Just asking so I know where to start
