    "Definetly an aqcuired taste. So, we have time, what brought a pegasus like yourself to Ponyville?"
  2. GreyMatter
    "Well, what do you think?" Grey sips from the cider, and is immediately hit by the strength of it.
  3. GreyMatter
    "Aged apple cider. It was aged for several years in my cider cellar back in Fillydelphia. Technically, it was locally made. At least, it is now that I moved to Ponyville. Comes from Sweet Apple Acres. It is really good. has a refinied taste, much like myself. Try a sip. I figure this was a special enough occasion to warrant opening the cider. Grand opening is in a few days, isn't it?" Grey holds out his glass, as if to expect a toast to the Complex.

    "Well why not take a break? Take the rest of the night off. Live a little, chat, dance, sing. Enjoy life, if only once in a while. Come. Let us dance." Grey holds out a hoof to Octavia, beckening her to grab onto it.

    "Good then. You work hard. You deserve a break. Besides, seem like it would be more steady than flying over them. I built it so the ponies, doing what they do, could give me ideas. For instance, I see them enjoying a cake at Sugarcube Corner, and I commission a bakery to be built on site. Whatever they do out there, I bring to them in here. I aim to please them, this is where I get my joy, in the joy of others." Grey Matter pours some cider, he offers some to Snowy.

    "Beautiful, isn't it? Looking down at everypony from up here?"

    Grey Matter finishes locking up downstairs, returns to the greeters desk, and looks around. He can't believe it. His dream of a family oriented condo complex has been realized, or is very close to being realized. He already has plans in his mind of increasing it for others. He supposes that he will need to wait until they open next week to see how it is. He spends a few minutes basking in his success, before heading upstairs to his penthouse, where he finds Snowy.

    "Yeah, whenever you want. Plenty in the fridge, if you are hungry. Lemme know if you need anything, I'll be up in a bit" Grey Matter heads out to close up the Condo Complex for the night, preparing for a busy day tomorrow.
  9. GreyMatter
    "Yeah, I would love to. So what else are you into?" Grey Matter smiled, because he too knew he had dodged a bullet on that one. Lucky for him, Vinyl was to busy shaking her flank by the speakers, and would be lucky to hear much of anything.
  10. GreyMatter
    "I'll send 'em down right now. Power is on, but I am not sure it will be set. My Penthouse is finished, if you want to stay there for the night? I have planty of extra rooms for you."
  11. GreyMatter
    "Alright. I'm so lucky to have a receptionist like you working for me. You need any help moving everything from your old house to the condo? I can get some guys on it. When do you want them over?"
  12. GreyMatter
    "Personally, I feel that even without lyrics, classical music gives more meaning. Other music just has the lyrics, too literal. But when it is wholly instrumental, the meaning is in what you feel at that time. A song can mean something different each time you hear it, and it is always just what you need. Sadly, nopony writes classical anymore, and this 'dubstep' won't qualify, because that doesn't even have music to construe to an emotion. I find that, in the absence of good music, I can at least talk to ponies who know what good music is."

    Grey Matter, running, sees that he has passed the pony from earlier. He is too busy reassuring himself that he will not seem late to notice the altercation that is about to occur.
  14. GreyMatter
    "What have you got there? It's after five, so you don't really need to be here. I already told you that you secured room A-102. Don't you think you are overworking yourself a little?"
  15. GreyMatter
    "Actually, I do need you to turn on the power, if it isnt too much. Should be about time to power on. Oh, and take this, you earned it" Grey Matter gives Runner a key, labeled A-101, meaning building A, 1st floor, room one. As Runner walks past, he can't help but notice a note. It reads: "To the most faithful worker, I have set aside one of the Condos to be given to a great worker. While I do not know who that is at the time of this writing, I trust myself to make a good decision of who it is to go to. This room, as you should know, is a complete suite, four bedroom, two stories, a kitchen, a dining room, living room, and den. It has a laundry room, and a backyard, with an upstairs balcony and a deck downstairs. It is done up in a contemporary style, made so that the afternoon light is enough to keep the entire place brighter than it could with lights. It was designed by Runner, and I believe he has done a great job. Please, accept this as my gift to you. Rent-free, no bills for the first year. Thank you for your hard work, Grey Matter" "Ah, Snowy! You're finally here! Did you get Sugarcube Corner to cater the opening?"
  16. GreyMatter
    "No problem. You got any word on when the renters are due to drop by? I wanna know if I have time to do one more run of the building, Make sure it is all set to begin opening in the next week." Grey grabs the couch and begins to move it. All the while, he is beginning plans for an expansion project, should the building be successful. He knows he is gonna need somepony to head the project...
  17. GreyMatter
    "Yes, it looks very nice. I hear you had a hoof in designing this one, right? Because if so, I see a bright future for you around here. And yes, I am looking for the foreman, he is never here! In fact, if you don't know where he is, you are active foreman until he arrives. I needed to ask him when the lighting is supposed to be ready." Grey Matter points out that it is only the afternoon sun that is making the walls glow.
  18. GreyMatter
    "Oh, no no no, thank you for gracing my ears with the music. So, what got you into classical music to begin with?"

    Grey Matter is on vacation in Manehattan, partaking in perhaps his favorite activity, pony watching. He sees somepony running down the street, with a manuscript seemingly hidden beneath his leg. Grey had recently become the publisher of a magazine after his father retired, and was today scheduled to meet with one of the journalists. He attempts to flag down this pony, figuring him to be the star journalist, Newsworthy, however, the pony is in too much of a rush, and goes right past him. Grey then recalls that they were due to meet at the Manehattan office for the newspaper, and rushes to the building, hoping not to keep Newsworthy waiting.

    "Oh yes, me and my friends were there. Up on the balcony. I find the acoustics are best up there, I actually found the exact seat where all the sound mixes perfectly. It gives you a chance to feel the music, really, as it all reaches the exact spot. I felt I had seen you from somewhere. In that case, you are a very talented cellist."
  21. GreyMatter
    "Oh, my apologies. You see, I'm new to Ponyville, just moved from Fillydelphia. The names Grey Matter. Pinkie invited me, so that I could meet people here. Sadly, Fillydelphia is filled with so many people coming and going, you only establish a few friends. Seems my conversational skills have gotten a bit rusty. I see by your cutie mark that you are a fan of classical music."
  22. GreyMatter
    "Well, look at the things we have but cant use. They have to be impressions from another dimension, with things that can use them. For instance, we cant very well operate an arcade game. The highest score I've seen is five. It just doesn't work with our hooves, but they exist." Grey Matter can tell he is losing ground here, and must think kf skmething fast to salvage this conversation...

    *Sorry for this, the post did not initially register. This will remain until I figure out how to delete the second post. Until such a time, please ignore the double post.*

    Grey Matter walks up to Octavia, fascinated by what she had just said. He porceeds to confide in her that He belives in humans, and attempts to strike up an intelligent conversation, as opposed to some drivel Octavia typically hears.
  25. GreyMatter
    Well, if it isn't too much trouble, I just started an RP, and would like somepony to try it out with me. It can really go in any direction, so I want to see where it is taken, if anypony would play it.
