GreyMatter

My replies will be few and far between for a while. My parents just yelled at me because I don't have a job, or my driver license, or have done much for my summer assignment. Basically, my parentS just called me a failure. I am not supposed to get.on the computer until I get a job apparently. (And before you ask, I am sixteen. Barely able to legally do half that stuff, but my parents don't care.)

Not yet

There is one today.

Grey simply took a moment to build up the mystery. "I figured I could help sell some art. Like an art manager. I help put artists in the right place for inspiration, and help them sell prints of the art they make. I figured it was a novel idea, and a great way for us to spend time together." He stopped rowing. "But for now, we can simply bask in our time together, uninterrupted." He leaned back and motioned for her to lay on him, to look up at the clouds, floating in the bay, together for what felt like eternity.

"What, you mean our first day in Baltimare?" Said Grey. "Of course I do! How could I forget? We went into the bookstores, had a five star meal, went to see your favorite show, saw fireworks, and slept in the park. It is gonna be hard to top that, but I'm gonna try." He continues, "I also have some good news for you. I know what business I'm going to start. And YOU were my inspiration." He said, rowing the boat out into the bay. "And you look even more beautiful today than you did that day." He added

Erm...dusk, we already have one. I just forgot to link to it. Sorry, I have been slowing down a little. Here it is.

Grey grabbed hold of Pesto's hoof and led her out the back door. "To be honest, I did not sleep at all last night. Once you were asleep, I got up. I got us something, and moved it back here." He said, as he motioned to a boat with his other hoof. "You go first, m'lady. Our vessel awaits." Once she was on board, he began paddling out in the water.

Grey Matter knew just where he wanted to go. He had a surprise for her too...he had bought a boat. He got it to celebrate that he finally was ready to actually start his business, which he always said he would never propose until he did start the business. But what exactly he was doing would have to wait. While she looked at herself, he pulled out the picnic he had already prepared for them, and called out for her. He had words that had been waiting to leave his mouth since the day he met her. "Fiance, are you ready? I have the perfect start for us!"

Sorry for this but it is needed to change my signature.

After a private discussion with Carmana, wherein I learned the motivation behind the character, I have decided to allow it. thebluemage, I know how you feel about alicorns, but believe you me, this is a good story, good motivation. It will grow on you.

Look, I just don't want anypony fussing over having an alicorn, and in a place like this conde, being a pegasus won't mean much, so why not just take the personality, and for this one thread, remove the wings from the character, and just use a unicorn.

Grey had spent the majority of his eloquence on that speech for Pesto, and simply wrapped his hooves around her as well. This, he thought, This is my favorite moment. I could not be happier He only was left to wonder, what now? Who do they tell first? When do they tell people? When will the wedding be? His mind flooded with questions. Ones he would need to answer. But for now, the most important thing was that he needed to spend time with Pesto. "Pesto," He said, once he found the words, "Do you want to head out? Spend a day on the town, to celebrate?"

Grey watched as she found the bracelet, and once she had clearly pulled it out, began his speech,

"Pesto, these past few years with you have been...the most magnificent years of my life. I love you, I have since I first laid my eyes on you. You are the most amazing pony in my life, and mean more to me than Equestria itself. You have proven yourself all that I ever wanted, a loving wife, a nurturing mother, a great friend, and all around a thoughtful and artistic pony. I can't even call you the mare of my dreams, because I could not have possibly dreamed that such a perfect mare could exist. We have lived together for a few years, and it has only proven our love for each other. I knew this then, and I know it more now. I want to spend every day with you. Nothing is as bad when you are with me. Morning breath smells better, I sleep better at night when I am holding you, and whenever you leave to visit your brothers, I count the days until you return. I may not have had any special somepony before you, but I do know that this is love, possibly more love than many other ponies could experience in several lifetimes. So, I never want to be without you. Pesto, will you marry me?"

He watched for her response all the while.

Species name: Canis Mareabius, The Mareabian Dog

Color: Coat color may vary, often grey

Diet: Omnivorous

Height: Large dog, about 3 feet high at top of head

Appearance: Looks like a wild dog

Nature: Typically a pack animal, this creature will fight to protect its pack, but rarely for selfish reasons. Living in the Mareabian, this creature has developed an advanced brain, often found with thoughts on a level similar to the average pony. Also has some telepathic powers, in that they can bond with one master (Though there are rumors of a few, hyper-intelligent ones, bonding with two masters, though this is unconfirmed). When bonded, the two can speak telepathically to each other, giving the pony a chance to understand the dog.

Possible Uses: When not used as a pet, they are often found being used as guard animals.

Current Status: Available for adoption, but must be adopted at a young age.

So, what do you think? Neigh, or Flutteryay?

Today is an early chat, and the dog keeps licking me.

Grey took the pan off the fire and let the egg slide onto the plate, not paying much attention as he wrapped a hoof around Pesto, drawing himself toward her for a kiss. He replaces the pan, and cracks another egg before walking out of the room in a rush, announcing, "Hang on, I've got something for you!"

A moment later, he returned, flipped the egg he made for himself, and opened a box. "I headed out early today, before the wind got a chance to blow, and collected some unique leaves for you." The box was filled with unique leaves, be they in size, shape, or curves. What was more, is that, hidden in the box, under some leaves, was a hidden bracelet, inscribed with the words she already heard from him daily, "I love you forever, Grey+Pesto" Before she had a chance to find it, he turned off the heat for his egg, and sat on the floor, waiting for her to find the bracelet.

(Yes, Grey is officially proposing to Pesto.)

Well it would be helpful if you posted it here so everypony else could meet him/her.

Sorry, I have been dropping a little. I have places to be, but time to set up a chat for you guys.

I am gonna use him. Also, I said you have to report it and the staff will move it I just want to know if I should get it moved.

Just, let me take care of it. You need to report it to the staff, so I can do it. I mean, if you want it to be moved

Um, just an idea, but what if we were to ask if we can move it to the 18+, that way we give ourselves more freedom for the story, and by extension, the Mareibbean, to develop. What, especially considering the story behind it in the first place, and that you mentioned him getting high off clover in the first post.

So, I'm applying for the thread. My OC Grey Matter will be playing. He...wait. You know him!

Public, so we have people RPing Mareibbean locals.

Oh, well, bluemage, do you want to start the RP at the Grey Area before we leave, or start when we arrive at the Mareibbean
