((We'll hit the gas station tomorrow or maybe the next day, then we can continue the game of ToD more after the stop if we're still having fun with it, too c:)) Shade's giggling quickly escalated as Bluemoon was finishing up her story. [colour=#800080]"That's HILARIOUS, Bluemoon!! Hahahaaa, was it at school? In front of everypony?" [/colour]She bit her tongue to try to keep from laughing. [colour=#800080]"What did you say when other ponies asked about your bubblewrap?!?" [/colour]She laughed some more, then sighed a happy sigh, regaining her calm composure. [colour=#800080]"It's okay, my parent's embarrassed me plenty of times too."[/colour] It was Bluemoon's turn then, and she chose to ask Puzzlebeat. When he picked dare, she told him to pretend in inanimate object was his crush and talk to it like a crush, with a NAME and everything!! Shade grinned widely, ready to laugh her heart out as he pulled out his phone, face growing red. She was surprised when she heard the shutter sound of him taking a picture, but didn't think much of it until he started talking. Shade started laughing again, and when she heard HER name, she grew red in the face and hid behind own two her hooves! [colour=#800080]"Oh my GOD Puzzlebeat!!!" [/colour]She couldn't stop laughing, her emotions going every which way. The embarrassment, the flattery, the suddenness and the surprise! She shook her gently, still laughing hard. [colour=#800080]"It's not a bad thing I'm just a little surprised is all!"[/colour] Once the giggles were out of her system, she smiled at him then leaned over onto his shoulder. [colour=#800080]"Well, now I know where I can rest my head. This is fun!! Puzzle, you're my new cuddle buddy!"[/colour] [colour=#800080]That's kind of a hard one..[/colour] [colour=#800080]WAIT, she likes fillies..?[/colour] Shade had been with a filly herself once, for about two whole hours! It really didn't work out, but was that because of the filly she was with, or because she liked colts best? She her eyes shot over at the filly, looking over her blonde mane and eyes the colour of Shade's own fur, but brighter. [colour=#800080]She IS really pretty.. [/colour]Shade bit her lip. She felt... Funny. Here she was, cuddling a colt who knew that she had a crush on the boy in front of her while checking out a filly. [colour=#800080]Am I a bad pony..?[/colour] She felt a bit guilty. Still, she didn't have time to dwell on the feeling after hearing Knight's comment.[colour=#800080] "I don't think it would be that bad.. Ponies kissing always look so happy! Sometimes I wonder what it would be like.."[/colour] The purple pony bit her lip, almost immediately regretting saying that out loud. [colour=#800080]"Umm.. Your turn to ask somepony, Pocket."[/colour]

(Sorry scamps! I could've sworn I'd replied O//o) "Of course," Licorice agreed, excited about crossing paths with Alba again later. "Besides, I would love to hear more about the Nightmare Night party that the club is putting together." Licorice had really taken to Alba, but she had yet to meet the other hosts! She sat with the "trio of princes," and decided to introduce herself to a new face. This host already seemed to be not as talkative as Alba, but something about his strong demeanor just drew her to him. "Hey! My name is Licorice. What's yours?" She gave Steel a warm smile.

((Hooray, Dreamy!! I'm glad that I could make you laugh with McSoy's!! )) Shade grinned at the two colts in front of her. She was a bit scared that the one who's name she did not yet know might dare her to do something wild, but it was an exciting kind of fear. [colour=#800080]"Sure! The more the better!"[/colour] She turned to Bluemoon. [colour=#800080]"The rules are simple! Whoever's turn it is gets to pick somepony, and ask them 'truth or dare.' Then, if they choose truth, the pony gets to ask them any question they want, and they have to tell the truth!! And if the pony says dare, then they can ask them to do something silly, and they gotta do it!! If something is a little too crazy though, we can take a group vote on if they have to do it or not. Umm... With that said..."[/colour] Shade put a hoof over her mouth, thinking of who to ask first. [colour=#800080]"We can start with you Bluemoon."[/colour] She gave her a gentle grin. [colour=#800080]"Truth or dare?"[/colour] ((You can just pick whichever you'd rather. Feel free to read them both if you'd like ^^)) Truth Dare

Ooh!! This looks like fun Name: Licorice Black Age: Same as the mane 6 Species: Earth pony, although she wishes she was a unicorn Appearance: Average physique but very femininely shaped, a little larger in the chest and hips than most. She rocks a dark headband, under which flows longer hair than most, often covering her face to a point. Cutie mark: Licorice's father had a customer who he'd told had a short life line, and the customer was not happy about it. He went home very worried that Licorice's father had been correct. He did some research on his own, and discovered that the line had been very misread, and that, if this stuff was even real, he actually had a very large life line. He studied up himself, realizing how wrong Licorice's father had been throughout the whole thing. He came back to the Black family caravan the next day, very upset. The customer asked for a refund, but Licorice's greedy father told him that the best they could do was a re-reading, thinking that he could just tell him some good things were in store for him and be done. The stallion revealed himself to be a member of the Royal Guard, and told Licorice's father that there would be consequences if they messed it up again. Seeing how worried both of her parents seemed about it, Licorice volunteered to try. They were very skeptical about letting her, as she was just a foal, but her father insisted to her mother that he couldn't be hard on a foal. Because she had studied up on things, she was able to tell it accurately, pleasing the guard. Although she did not get a tip, she did get her cutie mark after the reading. Element you wish to represent: (Aww sad day, magic is already taken) Let's go with generosity, because she used to never charge for her fortune tellings, to make up for all that her parents had ripped off of ponies from it. History: "Wealth, love and health! COME ONE, COME ALL! Your future depends on your actions today.. IT'S FUN FOR BIG, AND IT'S FUN FOR SMALL! It's all up to you! So what are YOU going to do?! Black family fortunes." Licorice knew the flier well. She couldn't stand her family's business. At least, not the way that they went about doing it. She had always been deeply interested in everything her parents were leading others to believe that they could do for them. Knowing that it was all a hoax, just for the sake of bits, really hurt Licorice's heart. The books which her parents had displayed in the caravan in order to make their guesstimates about customer's futures and their card readings seem as believable as possible were legitimate books on the topics, however. Licorice studied and studied from them, teaching herself how to do what her parents failed at doing in a rage of pure passion. Eventually, ponies would request for her to do their predictions. She would never do anything for bits, no matter how much her parents had begged her to. She still disagreed with their little family business, just because of her mother and father's constant falsehoods through it. They'd only make other ponies believe that what they were saying was accurate; neither Licorice's mother or father actually believed in the stuff their selves. Anything else: Licorice can be a bit of a flirt at times, which sure can bring her troubles.

That's really cool! My first character application was also based on a fanfic One little tiny thing that I just noticed is that your character's name is missing the "p" in Spinner ^^ Starswirl did a fantabulous job reviewing, so I'm excited to see what you come up with!!

Hai Neo! Starswirl and I will be reviewing your app I love this character! Time travelers are amazing If you'd like to play him in mane, however, were going to need to fit him into the application rules, which can be found here: (will link in a moment, I'm on mobile ^^) I'm not sure about the rules of magic or time travel, so I really dont know if the history or cutie mark story is going to work. Still, you should wait on Starswirl's post before making edits to it, just to know for sure how much will need changed. I can tell you that oc's applications are not allowed to have any previous relations with cast members, however. I'm also unsure if its cannon that Canterlot used to be Dromopolis. If not, that will need to be changed. Your character's summary has rich detail and is looking excellent! You used lots of rich detail and gave us a great since of Time's personality :3 He sounds like an awesome character to me, but to play him in mane, its going to take some edits.

((I've thought about it, and I don't think that I'll have a set post limit, but rather just trust that we can try and be careful to not leave anybody out of the fun :3 Hooray!! Some of the less social ponies are making friends!! C: Wait.. Does this really look like it's going to get grimdark? O//o I wasn't trying to set up for that at all!!! Lolololol)) As the miles rolled on and on, Shade's level of entertainment steadily decreased. She thought about maybe resting her eyes a bit, but being between two other ponies, didn't know where to lay her head. She tossed it back against the seat cushion, letting her hair fall over her face. Miss Licorice had been conversing with Petals. The teacher stood on her knees in the seat, facing the class. [colour=#008080]"My little ponies! We need to stop for gas in like 30-45 minutes, so we'll be able to get out at the station and stretch out our hooves and grab some snackage. There will also be a McSoy's[/colour] (like in Captain Hook and the Biker Gorilla c: ) [colour=#008080]in the station, so if any of you still need some breakfast, that would be quick and easy."[/colour] It was still early in the trip, but Shade was ready to get out for a bit! Violet's snacks had satisfied her hunger, but she thought it could be fun to look around the station with friends. Though, she knew that it would still be a little while before the stop. [colour=#800080]"Hey Violet, Puzzlebeat.. Bluemoon!! Pony next to her!! You guys wanna play truth or dare or something?"[/colour] The idea had just came to her, but she knew that it would be more fun than staring up at the bus's ceiling!

((That sounds good to me www! I'm so glad that everybody's enjoying this story so much, but do try not to get too far ahead of your fellow rp'ers scamps ^^))

Fresco unnecessarily made her way to the front of the room for her introduction, standing up by the teacher. [colour=#ff0000]"My name is Fresco! And I like making up stories with ponies[/colour] [colour=#ff0000]..and pretending [/colour][colour=#ff0000]..[/colour] [colour=#ff0000]..[/colour][colour=#ff0000]and cookies[/colour][colour=#ff0000]..[/colour] [colour=#ff0000]..[/colour][colour=#ff0000]and my friends[/colour][colour=#ff0000]..[/colour] [colour=#ff0000]..[/colour][colour=#ff0000]and drawing is fun[/colour][colour=#ff0000]..[/colour] [colour=#ff0000]..[/colour][colour=#ff0000]and I prolly like exploring[/colour][colour=#ff0000] too..[/colour] [colour=#ff0000]..[/colour][colour=#ff0000]Oh! And recess and lunch, those are my favorite[/colour][colour=#ff0000]![/colour] [colour=#ff0000]..[/colour][colour=#ff0000]and cooking[/colour][colour=#ff0000]..[/colour] [colour=#ff0000]..[/colour][colour=#ff0000]and Cloud[/colour][colour=#ff0000]..[/colour] [colour=#ff0000]..[/colour][colour=#ff0000]and Bluemoon[/colour][colour=#ff0000]..[/colour] [colour=#ff0000]..[/colour][colour=#ff0000]and uuuummmmmm........." [/colour]She looked around the classroom, then pointed at Siren. [colour=#ff0000]"HIM!"[/colour] She giggled and ran back to her seat.

((Grimshy's right, guys. Maybe I should set a two or three reply a day limit? How would you guys feel about that? I mean, I'd hate to leave Blizzy behind, and Violet hasn't been able to reply yet either. Also, the bus driver, Petals, is a girl)) Shade watched as the chaos ensued. She had provoked it, being the first to insult the opposite gender, but nopony seemed to be blaming her. Things quickly heated up between Puzzle and Knight, with an insistent little Slick trying to calm the flames from the sidelines. The little filly was shocked when Knight threatened Puzzle with a sword, her eyes widened. [colour=#800080]Slick is right!![/colour] After Slick spoke, the whole bus seemed to grow quite for a moment. Although Miss Licorice had an earbud in and was busy texting a friend about last night's episode of Equestrian Idol, she could hear the sudden rise then fall in volume. She stood up on her knees, facing the class and not the road.[colour=#008080] "It's cool you guys! Be loud and have fun!"[/colour] Amazingly enough, she didn't notice Knight's sword. She slumped back, sideways into her seat, using the window for a pillow. She layed where her back hooves just barely hung over the end of the seat. The fight died down quickly, but the young unicorn still felt bad about irritating the colt so much. She gently tapped his shoulder.[colour=#800080] "Knight, I'm sorry. Colts aren't always stupid.. Sometimes it's fillies that are the stupid ones."[/colour] She put a hoof over her chest, admitting that she had been in the wrong. [colour=#800080]"and I was a silly filly for kicking your seat like that[/colour].[colour=#800080]"[/colour]

The filly was happy to hear the boy's apology. [colour=#800080]"It's okay,"[/colour] Shade half smiled at him.[colour=#800080] He doesn't seem like the pranking type..[/colour] The girl took the opportunity to introduce herself. [colour=#800080]"You can call me Shade instead of purple filly if you wanna."[/colour] Violet offered snacks, and Shade quickly accepted! If there were two things that she loved, they was snacking and napping. The little pony knew that she was a smidge on the chubby side, but she's never went about trying to change that. [colour=#800080]"Hehe, party back here!" [/colour]She giggled, enjoying the pastry.[colour=#800080] "No, not all guys are stupid," [/colour]she replied to Puzzlebeat, a certain somepony in mind.[colour=#800080] "It's just... Some of them can be..."[/colour] She kicked the seat in front of her to try and get the other colt's attention as well.[colour=#800080] "Thanks for telling me it was a fake, Puzzlebeat."[/colour] She flashed him a smile before redirecting her attention to the small group, snack in hoof. [colour=#800080]"So have any of you been to Red Rock coast before? I was just telling Violet about the time that I went to see the Tombstone concert."[/colour] [colour=#800080]"Bluemoon!!"[/colour] Shade waved down her friend. [colour=#800080]"Come sit in the back with us!! I don't think we could fit anymore in this seat unless I sat on Violet's lap again but you can sit with her and be right here she looks nice!"[/colour] She stated without even asking the girl if it was okay, but knew that Bluemoon was the kind of pony who could just draw others to her, so she was bound to get along with the stranger well. The purple pony pointed to Pocket Watch, who was seated in the row just to the side.

I would hate to see this die down!! It's up to you Frost, but I think that Tacobob's idea is good C:

((Woah!! I'm glad that I posted!! I see that it sparked a little life into this and it makes my heart happy!! Sorry to have not replied earlier, but I was out and about and I actually did have a rather productive day, too, so it was all around pretty rocking ^^)) Licorice's face lit up with excitement as Alba introduced himself. When he kissed her hoof, an excited giggle slipped out without her even meaning for it to. [colour=#008080]"Dapper Alba,"[/colour] she repeated back, deciding that this was certainly a name to remember. [colour=#008080]"You have such a lovely name.."[/colour] She smiled at him another moment, almost forgetting that he had asked her a question. [colour=#008080]"Oh! I..." [/colour]Licorice bit her tongue on accident.[colour=#008080] Oooh, why does he have to be so perfect?! [/colour]She calmly cleared her throat, then continued where she left off.[colour=#008080] "..have never been to the host club before, but I must say, I'm impressed already, Dapper Alba." [/colour]Saying his name, the bangled pony realized that she'd forgotten to introduce herself. [colour=#008080]"My name is Licorice Black, by the way, but just Licorice is fine. So what exactly do you do here in the host club?" [/colour]She caught herself playing with her mane and gently lowered her hoof back to the ground.

Red Rock, to the coast! Were going to stay in beach side cabins

Is this still going? You have a customer guys!!

(Please tell me that this isn't dead?) [colour=#ff0000]"No, I won't do it!"[/colour] [colour=#008080]"Oh come on, Bonez, there's the room right there!!"[/colour] Licorice was surprised by how large the crowd outside Music Room #3. [colour=#008080]"Wow!! I didn't know that there would be so many ponies lined up.." [/colour][colour=#ff0000]"See?! They'll have their hooves full anyways, and do they even accept colts?" [/colour][colour=#008080]"There's only one way to find out." [/colour]Licorice winked at her shy little friend. [colour=#ff0000]"Noooo, I'm serious, what if they don't? I just can't do it!!" [/colour]Wishbone protested, shaking his head so that his peppermint mane swished back and forth. [colour=#008080]"You know you want to.. And it would be awful cute if you did!! Hmm.."[/colour] She looked toward the ceiling, thinking. [colour=#008080]"Tell ya what.. Why don't I just be a customer first, and during the outing, I could bring it up casually and see."[/colour] [colour=#ff0000]"Noooo, don't tell them my name!!" [/colour]Licorice chuckled. [colour=#008080]"Relax, goofball. I'm just gonna ask if they ever get any male customers."[/colour] The doors soon opened up, and the fillies piled inside. [colour=#ff0000]"Thanks, Licorice." [/colour][colour=#008080]"No problem! Tata for now Wish."[/colour] And with that, she entered! Licorice had never been inside the club's room before. [colour=#008080]Dang, these fillies are going CRAZY! How great can these guys be, anyway?[/colour] A pair of shining, yellow eyes caught her attention, immediately drawing her in. Standing out beautifully from his green coat was his long mane, light in colour. [colour=#008080]Wow!! He's so pretty he shouldn't be a colt!![/colour] [colour=#008080]What should I say? What should I..?[/colour] She saw his eyes meet hers back, causing all thoughts to fade away. Smiling widely, she trotted his way.

((I'mma let some other people get their replies in but Shade will forgive him www ))

Wow, more rp'ers!!!! You two are both in!! The bus has just taken off, but you can just pretend like you've been there the whole time ^^ -Quick review of what's happened so far- The bus itself is nice and blue, different than the yellow busses that the students are used to. The teacher is named Miss Licorice, and the bus driver is named Petals. Slick and Knight became friends and are sitting next to each other in the back. Knight has a wooden sword that he loves and is keeping out of the teacher's view in the seat in front of him because he's worried that she'd take it away. Sitting in the seat behind them, Shade and Violet started to talk and have became friends. Knight snuck a toy spider in Shade's mane, which made Slick laugh and the two colts grew closer laughing about the prank. The toy spider scared Shade and she screamed loudly and jumped in Violet's lap and then got embarrassed after finding out it was a toy. Shade's friend Puzzlebeat also sat in the row, sandwiching her in the middle. Shade tells Puzzle that she thinks one of the colts in the seat in front of her are cute, but asks him why boys are so stupid. Crimson Tag and Blizzard have just joined the story and are sitting nearer the front, and have yet to socialize, so they would be good targets if you're looking to make a friend Crimson is excited to break away from his boring routine and get out and do something fun with others, and Blizzard snuck her cd player out last minute to be able to take it on the trip. She is currently air drumming to a rock song

(Welcome to the rp, Blizzy!! I'm glad that you made it ) Shade held Puzzle back, still unaware that the spider was fake. [colour=#800080]"Nooo, out of my face!!"[/colour] Her hooves flailed in front of her for another moment before she made since of Puzzlebeat's words. [colour=#800080]"Wait..." [/colour]She heard laughter coming from the seat in front of her, and suddenly, in an instant, everything made since.[colour=#800080] "OH MY GOD YOU GUYS!!!"[/colour] Shade's face was starting to turn more red than purple as a wave of embarrassment crashed over her. She scooted off of Violet's lap and back onto her seat, took the spider in her hoof and gave it a good look. Yep, it was fake! She gently tossed the spider back up in the colt's row. [colour=#800080]"You can have your spider back, JERKS!!"[/colour] She leaned over, resting her head on Puzzlebeats shoulder. [colour=#800080]"One of them is really cute, too...... Hey Puzzlebeat? Why are boys so stupid?"[/colour] ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- As the last student entered the bus, (if you aren't in yet it's okay to just act like you where there this whole time) Licorice headed inside the bus herself, hopping up the little step by the door.[colour=#008080] "Alright, guys! You ready to get this show on the road? Our good friend Petals here will go over a few bus rules really quick, and then we'll be ready to rock! Take it away, Petals!" [/colour]Miss Licorice took a seat in the very front seat while a white pony stood up, taking the floor. [colour=#ee82ee]"Hey kids! My name is Petals, and I'll be your bus driver for the next few days! Yaaayyyyy..." [/colour]Her yay sounded pretty unenthusiastic, and a little forced. But her bus driving job payed the bills![colour=#ee82ee] [/colour] [colour=#ee82ee]"Alright, so I only have a few rules, and those are...[/colour] [colour=#ee82ee]1. Try not to stand up or change seats TOO much during the drive[/colour] [colour=#ee82ee]2. Please do not leave any trash on the bus[/colour] [colour=#ee82ee]3. I don't mind if you talk, sing, or whatever! But please, please don't scream or make obnoxious, annoying noises[/colour] [colour=#ee82ee]4. If anyone needs to make a quick, last minute trip to the bathroom, now is the time[/colour] [colour=#ee82ee]5. And lastly, and most importantly, have fun!! [/colour] [colour=#ee82ee]It's the rules, you have to enjoy yourselves!"[/colour] She gave the group a reassuring smile. Licorice looked back at her combined classes, the bus nearly full of eager young ponies. [colour=#008080]"Alright, you guys heard her! Have fun!"[/colour] And with that, the bus was off! Red Rock coast, along with the beach-side cabins that the students were to stay in, was only a few short hours away now. Licorice watched as the tires gobbled up the road ahead. They were on their way!!

Thanks, those are ADORABLE!! So umm.. I posted.. I'm still a tad confused on the order, but it's only my second post and I was the first to reply to the thread and didn't want to get behind cx

(Sorry that I took so long, guys. I almost posted, but I wasn't sure about the order exactly. I'm still not, really x3) Taking in her surroundings, Fresco could see that there were a lot of ponies around the camp's entrance already, and even what appeared to be a little griffon! She had never met a cynogriff before. Before too long, she heard what she thought was a shy voice. [colour=#008000]"H-hey there. I'm Silt.."[/colour] She was glad to already be making a friend.[colour=#ff0000] "Silt.." [/colour]she repeated back, tasting the name.[colour=#ff0000] "That's cool sounding. Great to meet you bud!"[/colour] Fresco replied with a warm smile. She held a proud hoof to her chest, her head held high in the air as she introduced herself. [colour=#ff0000]"I'm Fresco, and I'm gonna be a famous actress someday!" [/colour]The young unicorn had her head in the clouds as usual. Fresco's face lit up as the little griffon flew overhead. She watched with fascination, taking note of the way that the creature's feathers moved in the wind. [colour=#ff0000]"Wow! Did you SEE that kid, Silt?! I wonder if he'll be in your cabin. I hope there's a griffon in MY cabin! C'mon, Silt! We should go meet him!"[/colour] The socially fearless little pony trotted the griffon's way, eager to meet more campers.

[colour=#ff0000]"Totally!" [/colour]Fresco said aloud, then crossed her hooves in front of her like the perfect little student she was not.

I'm so glad that I gave Bon Bon that Lyra plushie. XD I just thought that it would comfort her while being yelled at, I didn't know that we'd get to see it taking real Lyra's place in the bedroom!! Ahahahaha great round everybody
