Bridge was a little hesitant with his reply, [colour=#ff0000]“… well, I didn’t say anything much aside from asking about you being my security.”[/colour] He rubbed the back of his head with a hoof an uncomfortable expression on his face, [colour=#ff0000]“so, anything else or should we find somewhere to go look around?”[/colour] He was hoping she would except his answer and move on away from the topic. He looked to a clock overhead. He still had several hours before he was needed for practice. A good bit of time to kill, he wondered if there was any place that served drinks at this expo.

Bridge nodded to the stallion as he trotted away. At least some things never changed; ponies always wanted music, the sun rose, and he could always annoy any manager into submission. Satisfied he watched the manager leave with a smile on his face. He turned to Penumbra as she spoke,[colour=#ff0000] “The short of it is your good to go. The long, I’ll keep that to myself.” [/colour] He wasn’t exactly sure how she would react to what her boss said, so he felt it best to keep his mouth shut on this one.[colour=#ff0000] "So, were'd you like to go?"[/colour]

Bridge’s face changed to a solemn expression, whether he was telling the truth or not this subject was no matter to be insulted. [colour=#ff0000]“My condolences for your loss, I too know the feeling of losing a loved one. Might I ask what she had?”[/colour] Bridge was slightly teared-up at the thought of losing loved ones he understood how upsetting it is for most, especially since ponies tend to bottle up their emotions about these things his self included.

Bridge was grinding his teeth. He knew it was best to hold his tongue but he was really tempted to give the stuck up stallion an earful. [colour=#ff0000]“Well there are a few things I’d like to say, but that wouldn’t be a gentlecolt of me to do so,[/colour]” the last part had a bit of venom in it. If there’s one thing he can’t stand, it’s ponies who think they have a right to treat others like dirt without even knowing them. [colour=#ff0000]“On the matter of the VIP entrance that’s my mistake, I was unaware of it at the time,”[/colour] he gave back a similar sneer, [colour=#ff0000]“I’m sure you of all ponies know what it’s like to make mistakes.”[/colour]

Bridge gave a slight smile at her for what he would take as a complement. When directed to the expo director he got up from his leaning position and walked past Penumbra to the director. [colour=#ff0000]“You may want to cover your ears just in case,”[/colour] he spoke softly so that only Penumbra would be able to easily hear him. Turning his attention to the director he began to catch his attention,[colour=#ff0000] “excuse me, I was hoping I could talk to you.”[/colour] Bridge was polite but made his self seem distressed. [colour=#ff0000]“You see, I’ve been having a bit of trouble with the crowds outside. It took a good while to get in and only after one of your employees was kind enough to escort me too you. I was hoping that I could get Miss Penumbra to stay as my escort for the rest of the expo.”[/colour]

Bridge nodded and followed penumbra to where she motioned. He was surprised at the fact that she was the only Pegasus working night-shifts. [colour=#ff0000]“I can’t believe you work all alone. You’d think they’d have hired other ponies for such a large city.”[/colour] Bridge shook his head, [colour=#ff0000]“well, that’s an interesting job and I guess someponies gotta do it.”[/colour] He rested against the wall closing his eyes for a second. He heard her voice; she asked the one question bridge didn’t like answering. Not that it was upsetting for him as much as it was a downer on the people he talked to. He thought for a moment looking for the right words.[colour=#ff0000] “That’s a rather long and not really happy story. I’ll tell it later on today, I’d rather not ruin the entire expo[/colour][colour=#FF0000] for you.”[/colour] He sighed slightly.

((That's fine you would no how he would act better than me in this case. P.S. the colored text in apostrophes instead of quotes was meant to be his thoughts. I've recently improved my writing style so there won't be any confusion anymore. )) Bridge took a quick mental breath to get his thoughts in order, just calm down that’s all I need to do, relax and be myself. He re-focused and got back to looking for Penumbra’s boss. It seemed a bit easier to focus now and he had already scanned through half the crowd certain he wasn’t in that section. He stopped searching to take in the beautiful music of choir, [colour=#ff0000]“aahhh… reminds me of my school days.”[/colour] He turned to Penumbra as she began to speak, focusing on her words intently over the sounds of the choir. [colour=#808080]"No kidding, rock?" [/colour]He nodded confirming his previous statement. He listened to her speak about her interests in music, it sounded like a familiar story for Bridge. He had spent many nights alone after small gig’s when he first started out. Sometimes he would have a hotel other times he would have to deal with what life gave him. It was a rough start, in fact getting in this band was his first big break. Now thing were going smoother; he still didn’t have much to do outside of practice and after-parties, but he was happier. [colour=#ff0000]“Mhhmm,”[/colour] he smiled, [colour=#ff0000]“from the sound of it you either love the night life or you’re a kindred spirit. Either way I guess I can empathize with you on that… heck, I guess you could say music saved my life.”[/colour] He was silent, deep in thought with look of serenity on his face.

Prime was sitting in line re-running his plans for today; he was almost completely oblivious to what was going on around him. That was until a pink mare hopped past him and began speaking with the griffon behind him. After the griffon’s bout of shouting had snapped him out of focus completely he turned to look behind him at the situation. He shook his head slightly grumbling to himself and turned his attention back to the line. He saw a variety of ponies none of which he recognized; aside from the princess, with nothing to do he tried to go back to his mental planning. [colour=#daa520]‘Alright so after this I need to go over my notes visit the town hall and…’[/colour] he froze for a moment, [colour=#daa520]“AHHH!!”[/colour] he had forgotten everything he had planned past that entirely. Slightly upset at himself he just look to the ground and waited brooding. [colour=#ff0000]"Ah...Applejack...could ya...get it off...meeeee..."[/colour] he looked up to see a yellow filly struggling with a load of pastries. [colour=#daa520]‘Poor thing… I should go help her,’[/colour] he looked to see the line behind him, well aware that he would have to give up his place he huffed and mumbled to himself, [colour=#daa520]“I really go out of my way for ponies too much.”[/colour] He walked up to the struggling filly, [colour=#daa520]“here let me give you a hoof with that”[/colour] he said carefully lifting the load of treats off of the young fillies back and sliding them onto his. He was used to the weight of caravan loads; this was nothing compared to those dreaded things, so he barley even flinched at the weight. [colour=#daa520]“So where do you need these?”[/colour] he said motioning to the treats on his back.

[colour=#ff0000]"Oh, uhhh… ok?”[/colour] he said a little confused. [colour=#ff0000]‘Geez, what’s up with me? I’m usually not this uptight.’[/colour] Bridge would probably be the first to admit he didn’t have that much experience talking to mares. In fact the only knowledge he had was what his father told him, not the most useful advice as it would seem. He looked around for the person he had been introduced to a few days ago. He would be in charge of security and announcing. Hearing her question he responded still looking for her boss, [colour=#ff0000]“mostly rock but I’ve done a few heavier songs, along with some classical training that’s about it.”[/colour] He scanned the crowds but it was near impossible to spot the pony they were looking for. [colour=#FF0000]“so do you play anything, or do just like to listen?”[/colour]

[colour=#ff0000]‘Well at least I didn’t make a total fool of myself, and she did say yes.’[/colour] He went to a door holding it open and motioning for here to go first, [colour=#ff0000]“after you then.”[/colour] Getting here job switched would be easy he just had to act stuck-up and whine a little to her boss; an old trick he learned from a fellow musician. [colour=#ff0000]“We’ll just have to have a talk with your boss then we can go wherever you’d like,”[/colour] he said trying to be as polite as he could to make a good impression.

Bridge smiled at her first comment glad that she was interested, at her second question he paused for a few seconds expressionless. He lifted his shades off to look her in the eyes, [colour=#ff0000]“from dealing with my record label, and the type of jobs I had to work before I became a musician I’d say I’ve had enough ‘catches’… I just want to spend some time with a nice mare and play some music, that’s all.”[/colour] [colour=#ff0000]‘Woah. Where’d that come from?’ [/colour]The slight change in his mood confused even himself. He had been under a lot of stress from his record label just as his fellow band members, but this was the first it had really shown for him. [colour=#ff0000]“S-sorry about that, not the best day for me either I guess.”[/colour]

A slight smirk grew across his face, [colour=#ff0000]“well… if you’re up for it I could make a few requests and maybe get you back stage as personal security. I don’t really need it, but I figure getting paid to hang back stage with musicians and walk around an expo would be more interesting than taking tickets.” [/colour]

[colour=#ff0000]“Easy, I’m not gonna get you fired over that its fine. You really need some relax time.”[/colour] He looked at the mare with a sincere smile. [colour=#ff0000]“That’s perfectly fine; most ponies call me that anyway,”[/colour] she seemed to be very distressed. ‘[colour=#ff0000]Doesn’t look like she’s having that good of a day,’[/colour] the stallion thought to himself as a moment of awkward started to envelope the area. The crowd behind began to grow louder and closer giving breaker an idea, [colour=#ff0000]“hey be honest with me, do you really enjoy this job?”[/colour]

[colour=#ff0000]‘Ouch! This mare really knows how to tear a stallion down… I like her.’[/colour] He knew the mare had accidently insulted him but he figured he might as well have a bit of fun with it. [colour=#FF0000]“I’ll be honest that was a solid blow to my pride. And by solid I mean rib-breaking solid.”[/colour] He said with a look of faked disappointment. [colour=#FF0000]“I guess you don’t know me. Oh well, my names bridge breaker what's yours?”[/colour]

Bridge raised an eyebrow and closely examined the mare in front of him, “hmmm… you look kinda’ familiar, were you at a concert for a band called Colt Corral last year?” He had met a few mares at concerts but he was pretty sure she wasn’t one of them. ‘I got time, even if I don’t know her I can now,’ his smile grew a bit bigger at this thought. He always liked meeting fans and other musicians. If she was either, or neither, he could find something to talk about.

Only see the first, third, fifth, and so forth of each word. here you go, good luck. Frqjudwxodwlrqv, bru kdyh fudfnhg pb frgh, sursv wrr bru.

((I think that would be Neon)) Bridge Breaker made his way through the crowd outside slowly making his way to the entrance, about half way through he heard a pony in the distance of the crowd shout out something. A few second later he could see many eyes turning to him as he walked forward a smile now on his face. ‘Five, four three, two…’ the crowd of ponies began to fill with noise and his personal space became almost non-existent. None of this helped his head-ache, but he appreciated his fans still. He kept his smile and signed a few autographs as he maneuvered through the crowd finally making it to the front door where a dark blue Pegasus was taking tickets. “Excuse me, I’m performing today,” he said showing a VIP card given to him in advance.

Bridge Breaker awoke to an extremely messy hotel room, looking around he saw several unfamiliar ponies that must have been from the party last night. Looking around he could see the damages of last night bringing back his memory bit by bit, looking to his night stand he saw a bottle of liquid. Suddenly aware of how dry his throat was he reached over to the bottle and began to chug the contents, ‘whatever it is, it’s good… that was one hack of a party me and the band must’ve gone crazy.’ At this he spat out the drink, “THE BAND!!!” he had just realized that he was supposed to be at the concert. In a panicked daze he search for the band members and his gear throwing his self out of the bed and tripping to the ground. “Ooowwww!!!” looking up he saw his guitar in its rack, there was a not on it. ‘got up early meet you at the expo.’ Breathing out a sigh of relief he got his things together. After a quick shower he throws on his black vest and opens the curtains temporarily blinding his self. Quickly throwing on his aviators to compensate he straps his guitar on and picks up a solid black cowboy hat. Adjusting it on his head with magic in front of a mirror he says under his breath, “It’s gonna be a long day.” With that he walks out the door and makes his way to the expo center. Thankfully, the expo had barely even begun to start so he had some time before practice even began. ‘Alright, so the back entrance is around here all I need to do is avoid the crowd an-…’ a thought popped into his head, if he went through the front he could have a bit of fun and maybe get the crowd pumped up even before the concert began. With that he was decided he would make his way through the front, meet up with the band, and then look around.

Alright sounds good to me, Bridge Breaker could either be with his band or doing a solo performance. whichever you think is better for the RP.

This sounds like an interesting idea to me, and conveniently i have an OC musician that is relatively well known that I recently made. If you think he would work I'd be interested to be part of this.

Prime walked towards the farm he had just enough bits to get some food and one of the residents of ponyville suggested this place. He was still confused as the mare who had suggested it seemed to be holding back laughs, but he didn’t really care apples are always good ‘how bad can you mess up apples?’ getting closer he saw that there was a considerable line this didn’t bother him as it seemed that there was a promotional event going on. Before he got in line he investigated the banners, ‘a apple kiss?’ As he read the advertisement it finally clicked in his head, ‘it’s a kissing booth!’ a smile began to form on his face bringing back a few fond memories of his childhood. Now amused and curious as to who the proprietor, and more importantly who the servicer is, he continued to investigate. Looking around his eyes caught with that of an orange mare sitting behind the booth, it was safe to assume that this was the person giving out kisses but now he had another question. “I suppose that can wait until I’m in the front of the line,” he spoke under his breath as he made his way to the end. ‘I guess it’s convenient that I had just cleaned up,' he looked down to his suit, a white collared shirt, a red tie, and a black dress-coat a pretty traditional choice but still the best for a job interview. He looked as if he had prepared for this ahead of time his mane, coat, clothes, teeth, even his breath was overtly fresh, he always went all out for job interviews but he was just here for food. 'Well maybe this won’t end up with me being made a fool of, after all if I do get this job I will be here for a while.'

updated,hope it helps answer some of the questions and concerns.

yeah it sounds good and I guess it could work even though the members are all stallions [for now I'm just gonna assume it but if other people end up making OCs of the other band members I'll leave it open to mares].

Thanks for the suggestion Mojo, I also tried using a name generator for it here are some of the good ones I'd like your (and Rosewind's if she wants) opinion on them. [some make more sense then others but I wanted a wider selection] · Feral Colt · Colt Coral · Out Colt · Beyond Colt · Mane Operation · Mane Inspiration

the band was giving me a bit of trouble but I've been brain-storming a few names. Since music is his profession he usual is impulsive about his activities in his free time (ex. he's walking down the street and sees a flier for a cooking class, without even a second thought he's in a kitchen covered in flower). Right now since he's on tour he just lives in hotel's, I'm going to add this information to the app in my next revision. thank you for your patience and advice.
