sleeps

Big McIntosh: When the pony mentioned that it smoked all the time the large red earth stallion tilted his head a bit confusion. [colour=#ff0000]"Nauw how'n Equestria does he all know dat Dis thing smokes all da time? Did him'n that earth pony install it? Is it some kinda hay smokin' machine?"[/colour] Big McIntosh thought to himself as he tried to figure out what the Pegasus meant. Still the Pegasus quickly switched the topic asking if he wanted to go along on an adventure with him and the unicorn. [colour=#ff0000]"Er sure....nod 'xactly sure whad ya'll are 'xpected da fine seein' that Ponyvilles pretty peaceful durin da summer but ah was moseyin' dauwn to da supply store ta get some nails if'n ya'll want ta join me." [/colour] The Earth stallion replied as he pointed a hoof down the road to the convenience store that was on the horizon. Sure it wasn't the most exciting idea but it seemed that the pegasus wanted to explore the town a bit judging by the way the fellow stallion grinned at everypony he met and looked at something as if he was a colt seeing it for the first time.

I'll be responding to the RP a little later tonight gotta head to work.

Well I just sent Firedash a message. hopefully we will get a reply.

Well seeing that it is about 2'o clock in the afternoon where I am I'll give him until about 7 PM just encase he or she is doing something special for father's day weekend then I'll send him a message and we will continue.

Well I haven;t heard from her lately but yeah she could also come along though I think we might also need to send her a PM on Saturday too

Yes that would probably be the best course of action. though I suppose in the worst case scenario jack and big mac will go on an adventure

we might have Private message Firedash if he or she waits to long.

Hey just wondering where everybody is.

Big McIntosh: The dark blue Pegasus seemed to be the first to react to Big McIntosh giving him a large grin. The friendliness of this new pony was bit surprising to Big McIntosh making him blink a moment at how easily the pony started up a conversation with other ponies. However, Big McIntosh wasn't sure where to go with the conversation making his nerves get the better of him a bit until he noticed that the new addition to the town was smoking like it was on fire. [colour=#FF0000]"Uh....'cuse mah rudeness fer budden on yer conversation bud ah think we might want ta call the fire department seein' that this thingamajig is smokin'."[/colour] Big McIntosh said as he motioned his head over to the local town square bell that could alarm the fire fighting ponies that a fire had broken out in square town. It would be bad if this new addition burned down before any pony got to see it.

Sorry I didn't reply sooner but I just posted with Big McIntosh. If the doc needs to move the TARDIS somewhere safe I bet Big McIntosh could move it for him. Also for this starting event (This problem always seems to be the starting one in most Doctor whooves RPs ) We could probably have something to do with changlings or something.

Big McIntosh: The large red earth stallion continued to watch the small group of ponies talking and walking on and around the new addition to the town when both the smaller earth pony and the unicorn noticed him. It seemed that maybe the unicorn knew who Big McIntosh was since she waved at him. The stallion raised a hoof back replying to the wave not exactly sure who she was or what she was doing. Still it seemed that it would be rude if he didn't at least go over and see if the group wanted him to do something. He slowly walked over to the three adjusting his yoke a bit so that it wasn't so that it wasn't crooked. As he got closer he heard the Pegasus question what the unicorn considered the most important date in history. Even though the question wasn't exactly directed towards the stallion he couldn't help but at least ponder the question a bit as he rolled a piece of spring wheat from one side of his mouth to the other. Still, Big McIntosh knew he couldn't just walk up and say nothing. [colour=#FF0000]"Well howdy. ah'm not sure ah know ya'll but ah'm Big McIntosh."[/colour] He said his drawl emphasizing on his low toned voice.

sorry for my late post.

Big McIntosh: It had been somewhat of a slow day on the farm since it was the middle of summer and the summer harvest wouldn't be in for a few more weeks making it so that the large red Stallion on the Sweet Apple Acres filled his time with fixing thing around the farm. His current task at hoof was to fix the club house that his youngest sister and her friends used to plan out ideas on trying to figure out what made them special in the world of Equestria. It had seemed that there last adventure was in being potion mixers which had resulted in them blowing a hole in the roof of the old club house off in the east part of the orchard. Still Big McIntosh didn't seem to mind. Ashe nailed in a few more boards to the roof, the Large Stallion reached for his bucket of nails only to find that it had run bone dry. He looked at the bucket with a bit of annoyed look before he carefully walked towards the edge of the club house roof and made his way down to the balcony then out of the tree. He slowly walked back to the farm going over to the stable area where all the tools were to see if he could find any others. When he opened the door of the stable the smell of hay and dust filled the stallions lungs making him let out a small sigh. As he walked in the muggy heat of summer could be felt throughout the building making Big McIntosh pull on his large yolk to try to get some air through the large thing. It didn't help much making the large red stallion move a little faster than he normal would in the building to try to escape the muggy heat. as he got where the tools were at the stallion looked about to see if he could find the box of nails that usually were on hoof. When he found and opened up the the small container again he didn't find a single making him let out an annoyed sigh. He put the container back onto the shelf and headed out of the barn. The stallion then went inside the old house next to the barn to grab a few bits so that he could get a few nails from the blacksmith in town. He stood there for a moment realizing that the house was fairly quiet. More than likely everyone in the apple house hold was doing something. Granny Smith was probably out her knitting club, AppleJack was probably with her friends, and Applebloom was in school. The Large couldn't help but feel a little sad that he didn't have anypony to talk to. Sure he was a bit quiet but that didn't mean he didn't like other ponies around him. Still Big McIntosh swept the thought away as he grabbed a few bits from the family piggy bank before scratching down a note for the family before heading out into the market. It seemed like all of Pony ville was quiet today as the large red earth stallion walked into town. The only noise that the Stallion could really hear was that of the birds chirping trying to find its other friends. It was a bit unnerving. Still, the earth pony kept focused on what he was doing until he noticed a large blue box near the center of town. Big McIntosh tried to think back if he had remembered it before but nothing came to mind making the red stallion raise an eyebrow at the new addition. As he got a bit closer he noticed two things. The first was that there seemed to be some smoke coming from the new object and two that in front of it was three ponies. The first one was a brown earth pony like himself though a bit smaller in size. The second one was a Pegasus with a dark blue coat. Finally, the third one was a unicorn mare with a fairly long mane.

Alright I will reply a little latter to it. Would you post a link to it when you are done?

Okay I'll try to think of some interesting characters in a bit.

I'm willing to also do a villain along with my companion

Well I have tried these before but usually they fall apart but why not I'll give it another shot. [colour=#000080]Name:[/colour] Big Macintosh [colour=#000080]Age:[/colour] 20 [colour=#000080]Gender: Male[/colour] [colour=#000080]Species: Earth Pony[/colour] [colour=#000080]Coat colour: Fire Brick Red[/colour] [colour=#000080]Mane colour: Golden hay yellow [/colour] [colour=#000080]Eye colour: Emerald[/colour] [colour=#000080]General Appearance:[/colour] [colour=#000080] [/colour] [colour=#000080]Personality:[/colour] soft-spoken and laconic, and often replies with a simple "eeyup" or "nnope" [colour=#000080]Crush/mate:[/colour] none/available [colour=#000080]History:[/colour] Big McIntosh along with his sisters and grandmother have worked together to keep up the Sweet Apple Acres by planting and harvesting apples for the ponies of Ponyville and other cites across Equestria. From an early age Big McIntosh did most of the manual labor on the farm from plowing, doing repairs, and harvesting while his sisters did most of the selling and promoting of the goods the farm produces. During the off season when the trees are resting so that the soil may be rested, Big McIntosh will do any sort of odd job he can find. This can be from doing house repairs which lead to his skill in craftsmanship, to making delivers all across Equestria His signature yolk was given to him by his parents when he was younger and he has worn since the last time he saw them when he was just a small colt. (Of course he has had it adjusted to fix his now large stallion body)

Well I'm still waiting to see if anyone else is gonna post but If no one posts by tonight I'll post my next response.

Oh yeah I remember hearing about this. I've been so busy with school the past 4 years that I have barely had any time to play the latest gen system. ( I think the last game I picked up for Xbox 360 was Portal 1 and I think Bioshock though I do know about Portal 2 and a couple others) Still DRM does sound like a bad idea because even though I get fairly good internet at home I have to split it with 3 other people one being my father who needs it for work since his office is at home so a gaming system eating up bandwidth all the time seems like a bad idea. Also I play single player exclusively because the few times I tried online playing I couldn't stand the community so I figured I would rather play by myself than others. So being forced to go online just to play a single player game seems kinda dumb. (But I also think DLC is kinda dumb too if all it gives you is an extra weapon or character that should already be on the game.)

Hey wanted to let you all know that I posted as Cadence and Promontory.

[colour=#ee82ee]Princess Mi Amore Cadenza:[/colour] Though the skies over the crystal empire were an endless blue that any pony would considered a perfect day, Princess Cadenza stood on her balcony looking down at her empire with a nervous look. Rumors had circulated around the empire that the dark ruler had been resurrected and that he was coming to try to reclaim the crystal empire and in slave the crystal ponies once again. She did not want to believe it, she had hoped that her husband’s sister and the holders of the elements along with the citizens of her empire had defeated him. Still, logic told her that there were dark creatures out in the world that would follow him without a second thought if given the opportunity. To be safe she had put up a weak barrier as an alarm. "Your majesty please come inside the chief has just finished preparing a meal for you." A guard said in a kind tone as he gently bowed to her and pointed to a meal that had been shuffled in on a cart made of fine gold and crystal. [colour=#ee82ee]"Thank you I-"[/colour] Was as far as Princess Cadenza got before she felt something, a sharp pulse that made her head throb and send a chill down her spine. She quickly spun and looked to the horizon to see that the barrier she had created began to crack making her feel like a stone was in the pit of her stomach. [colour=#ee82ee]"Dear Princess Celestia, the rumors are true."[/colour] She whispered to herself as took a step backwards before she quickly turned and went inside walking past the steaming food and out of the throne room. [colour=#ee82ee]"Inform the troops to be ready and to begin heading towards the southern front! Also, make sure that citizens are evacuated to the safety bunkers in the city! Are number one priority is to keep them safe!" [/colour] Princess Cadenza said as she continued to quickly walk through the halls. The guards that followed her nodded and began to disperse to follow the orders that their princess had just given. The princess quickly turned and headed up a long set of stairs that eventually reached the top of the castle. As she opened the door inside laid the Crystal heart that had helped defeated the evil king before. However, instead of grabbing it right away, the Princess went to another balcony and looked through a crystal telescope that had been built to view all parts of the kingdom. She quickly turned the machine to see the southern front. There she saw the hoard of figures running into the villages. [colour=#ee82ee]"I don't have much time"[/colour] She thought as she took a deep breath and began to cast a spell. Her cotton candy pink horn began to glow a shimmering blue until she released a large spell that quickly covered the city of the empire protecting where the crystal ponies lived and the castle itself. She had never enjoyed using such a spell since it made her dizzy but Cadence knew she had to protect her ponies even if it meant using ever last drop of strength in her body to do it. She then quickly turned to the crystal heart that sat floating on the alter that had been moved to the top of the tower. She walked over to it and again lit up her horn to cast a spell, this time touching the alter instead of letting the magic come freely from her horn. As she did the alter started to move down like an elevator taking the crystal heart and the princess down to the city streets where the crystal heart could be felt by all of her citizens. [colour=#ee82ee]"Please be alright everpony. Especially you Shining."[/colour] Princess Cadence said to herself as she tried to keep herself calm as she rode the elevator down to where the crystal heart was to be placed. [colour=#A1745E]Promontory:[/colour] To most ponies going up north to the Crystal Empire was something of fun and mystery, but to Promontory it was just another day on the job. Along with his fellow train ponies, the run up to the north was a difficult but necessary job. The cold from the arctic winds always seemed to go deep into the stallion’s bones making it so that each step felt a hundred times heavier when he pulled the train along the frozen tracks. Still, Promontory didn’t say a word he continued to pull, day in and day out to not lose his job. After all who would hire a blank flank for anything more than pony labor? As he ran along, a flash snow storm had started to form along the tracks making the burnt toast coloured stallion put up his red bandana around his mouth an nostrils and lower his cap so that chunks of snow would not blind him. [colour=#A1745E]”Just a little more.”[/colour] Promontory thought to himself as he quickened his pace as if trying to outrun the cold. After what felt like hours to the Earth pony, he saw the small green utopia that was surrounded by snow. He began to slow himself along with the train down as he got closer and closer until he felt the hard frozen earth between his hooves become soft with mud as the air became warmer and warmer. Promontory had no idea how the ponies here in the north were able to keep the Crystal Empire so warm; but he wasn’t complaining nor was his cold coat that greedily took in as much warmth as it could making his muscles begin to warm up again. After a few minutes Promontory pulled up the train into the Crystal Empire Station making it come to somewhat sluggish halt. The wheels on the engine gave out a loud sigh as they came to rest and the whistle gave out a whistle saying that the train from Appleloosa to the Crystal Empire had just completed it week long trip. Promontory unhooked himself from the behemoth of a machine as he let out a bit of a sigh of relaxation. Though he had been to Empire before, he usually would turn right around and begin back to Appleloosa or Canterlot without even a moments rest. However, the storm just outside the realm of the Empire would cause problems for any pony even one as experienced as Promontor. [colour=#A1745E]”Looks like I’m stuck here for a bit.”[/colour] Promontory thought to himself as he lifted himself onto the station platform and clicked the mud off of his charcoal black hooves. He began to walk through town when he noticed a few crystal ponies staring at him. He tried to ignore the stares but he knew why they were looking at him. Or more his flank. Among the ponies from Canterlot or the Crystal Empire he was the odd one out, the black sheep, the redheaded step foal. All because his flank was bare. No matter where Promontory went with his fellow train ponies they were usually the odd ones out because no train pony had a cutie mark. In other words they were the outcasts of society. Still Promontory forced himself to walk through the city since he had learned the hard way that calling out another pony for staring would end up with a night in jail and a good tongue lashing from his boss. As he walked through the streets a small crystal colt came up to him looking at him in an odd manner. ”Hey mister where is your cutie mark?” The young colt asked. Promontory let out an annoyed sigh before he looked down at the colt. [colour=#A1745E]”I ain’t got one. So beat it.”[/colour] He said in a harsh western drawl as he moved passed the young pony and continued into the city. He looked to see that a few ponies gave him the stink eye for talking harshly to a child but Promontory did care to much he had never been good with kids. He quickly forgot about the colt when his stomach gurgled for some form of food. [colour=#A1745E]”Alright, alright I guess we can see what grub they got round these parts.”[/colour] Promontory said as he looked down to his stomach then back up to the stores around him. He quickly spotted a small restaurant that didn’t look to busy making him walk over and take a seat. As the waiter came over he put a menu in front of Promontory. However, Promontory didn’t need one he always got the same thing when he went to a restaurant. ”How are you sir? Would you like something to drink? Would you like me to tell you are soup of the day?” The waiter pony asked as he pulled out a pad and paper to begin scratching down the order. [colour=#A1745E]”No need partner. I already know what I want, just a daisy sandwich with red Habaneros if you got them with a glass of water.”[/colour] Promontory replied as he handed the menu back to the waiter. The waiter pony gave a bit of a surprised look before scribbling the order and walking away taking the menu with him. As Promontory waited on his order he looked up at the empty blue sky of the Crystal Empire. [colour=#A1745E]”I wonder if all days in this city are this clear? Bet it has something to do with all the magic in the area. Probably what’s her name princess casts a spell too.”[/colour] Promontory thought to himself when suddenly he noticed a crack in the sky. At first Promontory rubbed his eyes thinking that maybe he was seeing something when another and then another appeared until suddenly it looked as though the sky was beginning to fall. [colour=#A1745E]”What the heck?”[/colour] Promontory said aloud when suddenly he saw hundreds of Crystal ponies fleeing towards the main part of the capital. Promontory couldn’t figure out what the panic was about when he saw a large group of creatures starting to move up the city streets trying to take any pony captive. Promontory began to move back a bit but was quickly caught by a group. He started to kick out with hind-legs wildly getting in a few good swings in before being overwhelmed. [colour=#A1745E]”Get off a me!”[/colour] He shouted angrily as he flailed and squirmed trying to get out of the creatures grip. He felt them starting to move him back towards the station where he violently tossed in with a group of other ponies. Most were sitting on the ground crying or looking for others that they knew. However, Promontory quickly got up and started to try to escape from the group. Still the guards tackled him to the ground and held him even when Promontory kicked a one square in the face with his strong back hooves. [colour=#A1745E]”Ya’ll think you can hold me?! Ya’ll get another thing coming!”[/colour] Promontory yelled as he again began to kick out with hind-legs, kick, and push his way through the soldiers trying to get back to the main part of the town.

Well I would be willing to do Princess Cadence if that is cool. (I've never rp'ed an alicorn so it might be an interesting idea) Also I will be doing a background character (He is from the show but has no lines) Name:Promontory Age: 24~25ish Gender: Male Race: Earth Pony Allegiance: Neutral for the moment Appearance: Personality: Promontory is a tough and gruff hot blooded pony. He usually has a hard time with being sensitive and kind but can show it when no pony is looking. Though if somepony were to call him out for being kind, he would probably try to start a fight with them. History/Background: Promontory grew up on the open roads of Equestria. His parents were migrant workers who would go from the north to south every year looking for work by the season. He never had much of an education other than the basics so that he could help with the work but is surprisingly good with engineering and is currently the lead engineer pony for the rail road of Equestria. However since he was always on the go, Promontory never able to find what made him special so he is still a blank flank even at an adult age. Being a blank flank has made Promontory realize that some ponies can be cruel and quick to judge making it difficult to get jobs because "he isn't an adult" yet in other ponies eyes.* *If you want me to change this than let me know. Promontory doesn't have a cutie mark in the official show so I decided to leave him as a blank flank in this too. Random Fact: His favorite food is red habañeros

Enjoy your backstory dump of the day, ladies and gentlemen! This is just further pushed my head cannon of Princess Cadance being Sombra daughter who escaped from the crystal empire before it vanished and her father went mad with power. Though sadly I won't be able to pick it up at thhe moment since I have to write a 30 page paper on social politics with the trans Mexican border.

Or they could just be milking it for all its got before moving onto the 3rd installment of the series and more then likely the end of the series.

eh I can't say I blame her. After all ya gotta make money so you can eat. But seeing that I have never been to a Pony Con since they are so far away It doesn't bother me to much. (Heck I didn't even hear about the Unicon thing until after it had all finished and I still don't even know the full story other then they broke their budget and had to close early)
