Lerian

Hello new person and welcome to the site. I would wish you happy RPing but thanks to the magnificent post above I have been more than beaten to it! Have fun

Hello new person and welcome to another roleplayer! I hope you enjoy your time here.

Hello new person! Welcome to the fun and frolics, or indeed whatever things you hope to find on the site!

As Princess Twilight Sparkle was speaking to her guard, Curiosity quickly racked his brain and decided on 'Your Royal Highness' as an address. Standing nervously and fixing his eyes on the Princess' forehead he opened his mouth to speak. "YEAH BABY! Er, I mean, hay, Princess! Really far out meetin' ya here like this! You're one good lookin' babe! How about you and me take in dinner an' a show while yur here? Whatdoya say, sweet stuff?" Ears flattening and eyes darting nervously he worked his mouth silently for a second before realising that, thankfully, it was not himself that had spoken. What was this foal doing? Were farm workers and country-folk really as blind to society as his parents had always told him? You simply did not speak in such a way to Royalty! As the Princess calmly defused the situation, far more politely than would be expected, Curiosity backed a slow step away to give this stallion plenty of time to dig himself a hole and room should the guard take exception. A wise move it seemed as the white maned, light blue officer that Curiosity had seen further along the line was now storming this way! Reaching the group that was forming around the Princess she, with a face like thunder, opened her mouth to speak. Instead she whined. She whined about belittling, she whined about popularity and she had the audacity to call the Princess selfish! The blue unicorn who was obviously not an REA officer finished her rant and the Princess again addressed her offender politely. Curiosity had heard that Her Royal Highness Princess Celestia was a calm and capable diplomat and it seemed the new member of royalty was similarly talented, turning the conversation around to the unicorn who would hopefully not exasperate the situation further. Sweet Celestia this was terrible! This was turning out the same way as the gala his parents had kept going on about. Two years ago that designer mother liked so much had apparently exploded at Prince Blueblood before the entire gala had collapsed into chaos and now it was happening here! He would pick up as many blue sparks as they wanted, collect gallons of striped paint and go to the storeroom for the biggest long weight possible if only this would end. He had not been given permission to leave and he certainly was not about to speak for the Princess who was taking this all very well, so he stood looking at the ground with ears flattened, anxiously scuffing his foreleg in the dust.

Hello new person and welcome to the site. As a table-topper myself may I wish you good luck with making the change from tabletop to forum based RP!

Curiosity stood in line behind a large, muscular earth pony who, it seemed, was picking up supplies for an entire village. The fact that the earth pony was queuing with a cart made it very difficult for the young unicorn to engage anypony or to overhear the conversation the griffon was having. He knew it was impolite to listen in like that but when would he get a chance to hear from a griffon that was not part of an 'impress each other' verbal dance with his parents? Quickly glancing in the cart he noted it was empty before sidling forward and around it, he certainly would not want to be accused of trying to take things. As the voices of the griffon and a smaller blue unicorn became clearer he could pick up a few words. Something about the R.E.A, the unicorn mentioned the changeling attack at Canterlot and high adventure. Were these off-duty soldiers perhaps, the unicorn undoubtedly an officer by the way she carried herself? Curiosity began edging further forward until he was at the very front of the worn cart and made a show of looking it over. The earth pony stallion looked very solid and while it would not be as bad as an accusation of theft, being seen as pushing in line probably would not work out well for the younger unicorn. As he cocked an ear towards the conversation a hush seemed to fall over the queue. Panicked he took two quick steps toward the back of the line and looked around to see what else he might have done, just in time to see her. The tall lavender pony trotted towards them seemingly glowing in the sunlight, her purple hair parted at the stripe by a unicorns horn. Delicately feathered but strongly muscled wings rested over saddlebags bearing the royal mark of Princess Twilight Sparkle and bright, intelligent eyes looked out of a kindly face as motes of magic coalesced in the air around her. Curiosity was suddenly awash with emotion as a dozen of his parents lessons on etiquette rushed into his mind. 'Do try to remember titles dear. It is important to address a pony in the correct manner. You are getting older so your eagerness will only carry you so far.' 'If you really are having trouble always address upwards. It is better to address a Baron as a Viscount rather than demoting somepony.' 'Do pay attention dear. If the princess should actually speak to you, you will need to remember....' "Well, seems like this has gone well for them, hasn't it?" A princess was standing right in front of him! Curiosity closed his eyes and bent his left foreleg, dropping the front half of his body down. Staying there, he desperately tried to think of something to say. 'Ohmigosh! Speak you foal!', his fathers voice again, 'a simple agreement is better than nothing!' Curiosity opened his mouth to speak but was interrupted by another voice. “Here… are your books… Your Highness...”

Hello Seastrider and welcome to the site. This is certainly a good site to get into the RP as you can see from the bajillion* RP threads that are constantly ongoing. *What? That's a real number...

Hello new person! *Tries to be careful not to swamp the shy new person under comments*

Hello Writey McWriterson and I hope inspiration strikes you soon.

Hallo, some nice arts you have there.

Huzzah! Now to get him out there...

Hello and welcome to the site. Congratulations for taking the plunge into RPing! Staff Mods and members are extremely friendly and helpful and I'm sure you will have a lot of fun getting into it. EDIT:- Mods =/= staff Lerian you silly filly!

I can't decide between 'smile,smile, smile' & 'A true, true friend' because they are both so very happy and upbeat.

Hello to you, you icky infiltrator! (Joking of course, welcome to the site )

I believe I've corrected and tidied up, apologies in advance if I've missed anything.

Hello new writer. Look forward to RP's and any of your writings you may put up. I have to ask if your username is taken from that one webcomic or just Woona in general?

I welcome you and your spiffy hat!

I am both fascinated and horrified as to where Alicorn Twilight will take us. As an analogy, 'You don't use a 20th level mage to clear a cellar of rats.' EDIT: Sometimes fanon explanations stick with me more than canon ones if and when they're introduced. E.g. unicorns keep their noses up not because they are snooty or looking down their noses at others but because they have a huge spike in the middle of their forehead. Swap 'money' or 'gold' for 'crystals' and Prince Sombra becomes one of the most relatable or understandable villains of them all.

Rarijack is probably my favourite because finicky snob + filthy farm hand

Yikes! Sorry. Changed to Final/ready for assessment after minor changes to racism/tribalism/classism. EDIT, changed back to WIP while I look through the new app form and make adjustments

Feels brony! Feeeeeeeeeels!

Ponyville hydroelectric dam was running at a reduced capacity today due to scheduled maintenance and Curiosity Sparks had been invited to the dam again to look things over. He felt a little guilty that he had made his letter sound so interested when in fact he was still undecided about what he wanted to do in the future. Hopefully this would generate some interest in him. He smiled at the word as he was currently having one of the dams generators explained to him as well as the sort of things he would do if he did start working there. 'Hey kid, c'mere a minute.' Curiosity turned away from the working generator he was being shown and trotted over to the two ponies performing resistance checks on a static generator. The earth pony pushed up his safety helmet a little and smiled at him. 'Lunch is coming up and we figure some apples are in order. A bushel from Sweet Apple Acres should be plenty for us all. You can spare him for a while Mr Charge?' Curiosity took a step back from the brown pony with a look of annoyance. "A bushel? That is eight gallons! For lunch? This is just like my last visit when you sent me to pick up a box of blue sparks from that weather pony!" There was a snicker from a pegasus whose face was still buried in the generator, quickly silenced as the earth pony glanced at him. 'Okay, that was a joke but we mean it this time, right Mr Charge?' The supervisor came over and, smiling, tapped Curiosity's safety helmet. 'Come along, I'll show you the way.' 'Alright', Curiosity sighed, 'it's not funny if a pony knows it's a trick though.' He tried to glare at the two older ponies but ended up dropping his gaze before turning and following the supervisor out. He got less than ten steps from the door when he heard the pegasus laughing again. Static Charge, the supervisor spoke gently as they handed their helmets and day-glo safety jackets in at the security station. 'They are just joking with you Curiosity. They would not do it if they did not think you could handle it. I know it does not seem like it now but I hope you will see that over time, if you did work here in the future of course...' The pony behind the desk gestured at the temporary pass Curiosity had around his neck and it briefly glowed blue as the colt levitated it over, receiving his own saddlebag in return. Curiosity was barely listening as Static Charge led him down the street, explaining about workplace humour and as long as it didn't affect safety and they were genuine this time and blah, blah, blah. He started listening properly in time to hear, '...so here are some bits from petty cash and Sweet Apple Acres is just a short distance that way, on the outskirts.' 'Thank you, you've given me some things to think about', he replied as he headed in the indicated direction. After a short trot he started to perk up, he had not been given a time to be back so he would be able to look around for a while as long as he was still back for lunch, the houses here were pretty and had some fascinating designs and timberwork compared to the towers and mansions in Canterlot, ahead was opening up to a wide variety of roadside trees too. Maybe this wasn't such a bad chore, joke or not. "Sweet Apple Acres First Annual Apple Kiss!" said the sign he passed on the route; in what would be adorably foal-like writing under other circumstances. 'Genuine? Celestia's sun-kissed r...' he started to say too loudly before catching himself as a few strangers looked his way. Mumbling an apology he continued along the path for a short while, purposely kicking at every stone and scuffing up dust until he saw a queue up ahead, leading to a stand. Lo and behold there was a red maned filly, wearing an oversized bow chatting and blushing to a young colt standing in front of her while her family looked on. He sighed at the 'village-farminess' of it all and at the thought of the plant workers laughing their hats off at this expense. As he headed to the back of the short queue he couldn't help noticing that there were an awful lot of adult ponies here and even a griffin! What in Equestria? Maybe it was a small town thing and ponies here were less conservative? He had read that in Germaney a kiss was little more than a greeting and there did seem to be a lot more ponies not wearing clothes here compared to Canterlot... Curiosity was smiling again as he joined the queue. He might get to talk to a griffin and that was surely worth kissing a farm filly and being laughed at back at the dam!

I tend to use Lerian a lot as it is an AD&D character I used to have 'back in the day'. If Lerian is in use I tend to go for Serioli which is the name of a race which created weapons that terrified them so much it stopped war (for themselves at least). I have yet to be in the situation where both are in use.

Have to say I really like the insect name. Have you read 'Nor crystal tears'?

Hello there! So glad to see you back, whether for a short or lengthy time.
