  1. Hey there Derpyy!

    Sunny here seems like a cute, cheerful character that would make a great addition to World of Equestria! There are just a couple things I'd like to address before moving things along - nothing drastic, just some finishing polish really!

    Firstly, Sunny's history feels a little like a ramble and I'm getting more of a sense of a character summary feel from it - you have a heavy focus on his relationship with his parents and his goals, but lack a focus on milestones and important moments in his life that lead up to where he is now. Why not try talking about how he perfected his skills, whether or not he struggled, and how he set up his shop? Details like those would really make this application shine!

    One other minor thing is the very last portion of your app. You mention he fears losing his job, but Equestria is a very forgiving place and I can't see anypony losing a job just because they made a mistake! If this is just a worrywart sort of quirk that Sunny has, could you please point that out?

    Thanks much! Let me know when you've made progress with your app, please, and happy writing!

    Hey there Elder! Thank you for reviewing my app! I added in a few new parts to his history and after reading it over you were right! I did ramble :-|. Apologies!

    And for the losing the job part, I have no idea how I forgot about that! I honestly think when I was writing that I intended it to just be a silly little worry of his. Actually Quirk is the better word! Thank you! :)

    I await to see if I must change anything else!

  2. Roleplay Type: World of Equestria

    Name: Sunny

    Sex: Male

    Age: Young Stallion

    Species: Unicorn

    Eye colour: Dark Green

    Coat: His coat is a creamy white

    Mane/Tail: His mane and tail are both a white and red colour. His mane is quite long and covers part of his face, but he usually just moves it out of the way. His tail is rather long as well. The colours are split down the middle on his tail.

    Physique: Sunny is a tall stallion. He is taller than the average stallion. He is quite skinny, but he isn't muscular

    Residence: Manehatten

    Occupation: Barber

    Cutie Mark: Sunny's cutie mark is a normal pair of scissors.

    Sunny was among the last of his friends to get his cutie mark. Once almost all of his friends got their cutie marks, Sunny resorted to trying anything and everything. He played sports he had never played before, went to restaurants and tried serving food. The food business was not for him. But Sunny did have a small interest in sports. But no matter how hard he played the games he never got a cutie mark. Granted he wasn't that good, he enjoyed playing the sports. So the time came to when Sunny was sure he was never going to get his cutie mark. He started to mope and whatnot, until his mother decided to try and help him. Sunny's mother was a mane stylist and she decided to take him to her work for a bit. They had some candy at the shop for the fillies and colts that came in with their parents so she was going to give him some of that to help him.

    Upon arrival at the shop, Sunny took in everything. He watched as his mother worked talked with the mares and stallions that came and went. He was quite impressed with teh things his mother could do with pony's manes.

    A few days passed of doing the same thing. Going to the shop and watching his mother. And then the day came. Sunny felt confident that he had learned enough to tackle a pony's mane as well. He watched as a mare came in and greeted his mother. His mother was already at work with another pony so she made the mare take a seat in one of the chairs and wait. So, Sunny decided to help his mother out and take care of the customer. He approached the mare and got her ready to cut her mane. He prepared himself and got the tools ready. The mare asked if Sunny even worked here. She told him it was cute for him wanting to try and cut her mane. Sunny realized this was the perfect time to say what he always wanted to say. Sunny looked the mare in the eyes and said, "Trust me. I'm a professional."

    So Sunny went to work. All the mare wanted was a simple cut. So Sunny remembered what he saw his mother doing and he put it to work. Not only did he give her a cut, he gave the mare a new outlook on her mane. She let out a few squeals of joy which caused his mother to come over and investigate. She immediately pulled Sunny away and apologized to the mare about a thousand times. The mare comforted Sunny's mother and told her how much she loved her new mane style. Sunny stood proud of what he did. His mother gave him a stern talking to after that. But Sunny didn't pay attention to half of her talking, for he had a new cutie mark to admire

    History: Born and raised in Manehatten life growing up for the young colt was always crazy. What with the busy lifestyle of the city and the life in general, Sunny felt as if he was always on the move. Even when he was standing still. And that's why he loved Manehatten. With Sunny's father being some big citypony and his mother being a mane stylist, Sunny should have felt as if his parents were to busy for him. But that thought never crossed his mind. He loved, and still loves, his parents and they loved, and still love, him. Sunny actually never knew what his father did when he went away. All he knew was that his father was usually gone on business. But he was home for special moments such as holidays and what not. He would often go to a friend's house when his parents were both gone. He loved it, he got to spend time with his friends anyways!

    Life for Sunny now is even better than it was when he was young! He still loves his cutie mark, even though it isn't that exciting. He now lives on his own in the city he loves and gets to work at a job he loves. So life is pretty great. He works at a small barber shop in the busy city. Starting off the shop was just a small little unused building that he and his parents bought for him. After a few long days of cleaning up the building and gettting everything the way he wanted, he finally got the shop set up the way he wanted. Once his shop was set up and open for business he never really had that much business. He often finds himself just sitting in the shop and often singing to himself. But as usual even the smallest amount of ponies can change something. After a few ponies came in to his shop he was able to work his mane cutting magic on them, he wasn't a pro at first but he was eventually able to build up his skills and get his mane cutting skills known. Slightly. His shop is never really busy, but it has it's share fair of customers.

    Sunny likes to thank his parents as always for where he is today. When he was younger he never felt as if he would get his cutie mark. And if anything had been different then he doesn't think he would even have the same cutie mark. It scares him to think of what his life would have been like if his father had been home more. He would have grown up way differently. He thanks his mother for working the job she did. He doesn't have any desire to become the best barber in Equestria or anything. He is perfectly happy the way he is right now. He just hopes his live will continue the way it is now.

    Character summary:

    Being skilled at cutting pony's manes. Sunny likes to think that that is his only talent. He does have a cutie mark with a pair of scissors and all. He uses those everyday. But really, like every other pony in Equestria, that isn't his only talent. He loves to sing. He will just sing away when he is in his shop and not give a care in the world. Only a few ponies have heard him sing before. He has no idea what they thought of it but he doesn't care. He is just happy to be alive. He excels at being happy. He is hyperactive and energetic. His zest for life and his job keeps him going. Sunny likes to motivate himself by saying that there is no time to hate anything or anypony. It is easier to just enjoy it or ignore it. He is motivated as well to make sure everypony that comes in his barber shop to have a great day and leave with a smile.

    Besides his love for cutting pony's manes, Sunny absolutely loves playing sports. Any type of sport really. Besides sports he loves..singing. He just can't get enough of that. He loves going to see any show and especially loves art. He has always wanted to go to Canterlot or someplace fancy and look at the art there. Sunny does not like not having enough bits to buy something. It always makes him a bit sad. He's only had it happen once but he dislikes ponies saying he is a bad singer. He doesn't like to admit it, but he actually feels as if he is a great singer.

    For hobbies, Sunny loves to spend time at the shop. Even when he isn't working he likes to be there. When he isn't working he loves to go see shows or musical performances. It is a hobby for him since he does it regularly. He loves to go and catch a bite to eat or drink with his friends.

    Sunny in general is fun to be around. He loves to make ponies laugh and just enjoy themselves. Making friends for Sunny is not hard at all. This bubbly and energetic stallion will go out of his way to make friends. Often with random compliments to pony's manes or clothes or what not, he enjoys company. Once you become Sunny's friend he will pretty much invite you to anything he has planned. The more the merrier!

    One major fault of Sunny's is that he can often "Slip up" on a pony's mane when he is working. While this results in anger from the customer, Sunny always tries to satisfy the customer. He hates when he messes up. This is often caused by him not being focused when he is working. He has been reminded that he has this problem of not focusing many times. Sunny always fails as singing the high notes. So he always sticks to the lower partials. He tries sometimes...but the notes never really come out. Sunny isn't good at handling angry ponies either.

    Of course, one major worry of Sunny is that he won't cut a pony's mane like how they wanted or described it. He always wants to cut a pony's mane to their exact expectations. He always. But, he thinks that he will be just fine in life. There's always room to improve.

  3. Daring noticed that one tent that housed one pony was still open for grabs. She moved closer to the tent. "I'm sleeping alone. I don't plan on us staying here long. We sleep. We wake up. We go." She then looked down in her anger. "We've already lost one member. Don't really know how." She scoffed and then moved into the tent.

    She was happy that the ponies had made it this far. They knew how to survive.

    [colour=#0000CD]"Well, hello there! I'm Bon Bon and these are the [/colour]remains[colour=#0000CD] of my shop. What can I do you for?"[/colour]

    Care gave a friendly smile to Bon Bon. He took a quick glance at the mare that trotted away from the group. Did he say something? Oh well, she was gone now. So Care looked back to Bon Bon. He had to admit...he was a bit curious of why she only had the remains of her shop. Something must have happened. And he really...really wanted to know.

    [colour=#800000]"Remains?"[/colour] He gave the stand a quick once over. Broken pieces in place and such. So this wasn't her decorating choice for her stand. [colour=#800000]"Did something happen here?"[/colour] He knew the obvious, "Yes something did happen," was going to come after that question but he still wanted to know what happened. [colour=#800000]"Cause I mean. If it's a bad time, I can..come back later?"[/colour] He always wanted to be friendly to new ponies he met. Since he had never met her before he decided he would need to fit in a late introduction. [colour=#800000]"Oh! Hello Bon Bon! I'm Care Package."[/colour] He gave her a wave of his hoof. He almost said his, "Equestria's best mailpony" line after he said his name. But he didn't. Now, back to that stand. He figured that if something had happened to this mare's stand, she would want some time to fix it..or something.

    But then the Bon bons caught Care'e eyes. He focused his eyes on them and being a sucker for sweets instantly fell in love with them. He had no idea if they tasted bad or not. Care took a moment away from staring to glance at Bon Bon. [colour=#800000]"Are those Bon Bons?" [/colour]

    Then...it hit him like a ton of bricks. Her name was Bon Bon...so she must sell Bon Bons! Oh the obviousness that Care had missed. He was sure he looked stupid in front of the mares but it was to late to take away questions now.

  5. hyicbXI.png

    Care was just simply amazed by the things the purple mare was saying to him. Who was this A? And why did he tell B? And what's a coconut? Care was just simply amazed, but still...he didn't focus that much. He really was just amazed by the colours of the book and the pictures. He noticed that the griffon that had torn up that teddy he wanted was pouncing around for some reason. Care had no idea what he was after. All Care knew was that he pounced on the purple mare's head and messed up her mane. It made him laugh.

    Through the young colt's giggles he crawled out of the blanket he was in. Little did he know that his flank was being targeted by the young griffon. He had no idea the fly was there.

    What happened next was predictable indeed. The young griffon pounced, missed the fly, dug his talons in Care's flank. Care instantly dropped whatever he was thinking in his mind and only thought about how much that hurt. It was still hurting, which lead the young pegasus to start to cry. His flank still ached.

  6. Locke had been up early this morning. He usually was always up early for work anyways but today was his day off. He had only been working for the Museum for a month or two now and he had to say..it was quite nicer than the one in Trottingham. He just assumed it was that way since it was Canterlot and all. Everything about the city was fancy. He loved it! Everything you laid your eyes on was like a treasure! But, unfortunately..those treasures could not be taken away like the ones that had been found at some of the dig sites.

    Locke decided that he would need to quit paying so much attention to the colours and sights of the city and actually find out where he was going. He really had no idea now...he had never been to this part of Canterlot before. Still looked as fancy as ever though. One thing was for sure though, Locke did feel out of place. Everypony seemed to be wearing fancy clothes and what not. Locke was just wearing his archaeology hat and jacket.

    "Oof!"

    Just then Locke fell back a bit. He shook his head and came back to himself and tried to realize what just happened. He had just run into a stallion that was a bit larger than him. He was wearing some type of jacket though..was it..cashmere? No..it was..bahh who cares.

    "My apologies then. Didn't see ya there." The charcoal coloured unicorn fixated the tan hat back over his black mane. He nodded and then moved on from the stallion.

    As Locke moved on through the city he was extra careful of where he was going. He was more observant as well. And his observing eyes gazed upon a rather nice looking shop. "Regal's Steel and Iron." Locke put a hoof up to his chin. This store seemed really interesting! So Locke decided to pay it a visit. He didn't see many stores like this one when he was growing up in Trottingham

    Locke pushed the door open and the there was a small jingle from the bell near the door. Instantly...Locke was amazed at what he saw. Armor and all the like everywhere! And everything..was so...well crafted. By a true craftspony. "Somepony really knows what they are doing." Locke glanced over a lot of the pieces. Then he realized that he wasn't alone in the store. Two mares were also in the shop. A grey mare with a purple mane. And a yellow coated mare. He didn't know either of them. So he decided to speak to them. "[colour=#000000]Ello there! Sorry if I was interruptin', I was just moving along an I noticed ya forge here. Tis quite nice if i do say so myself. Well..then again I don't really know nothin' bout forges. So tis a fine forge to me!" [/colour]Locke then noticed that the yellow coated mare had a very finely crafted suit of armor on.

    Locke had to admit, he did feel a bit weak compared to her and her armor. "Ahhh. Picking up yerself some armor then are you? I've never been here before but I gotta say, this seems like a amazing place to pick up your armor." Locke gave both of the mares a smile before turning his head to Regal. He tipped his hat to her. "Mah apologies Miss....?" He tilted his head in question to her before continuing on. "I am Locke Wind. Though I just go by Locke. Archaeologist!" He then turned to the yellow coated mare and tipped his hat to her as well. "Didn think I'd forget ya then didja?" He laughed a bit. The talkative stallion finally decided he was done talking.

  7. [colour=#006400]"I'm an artist, and I came here because I've been itching to paint scenes around the Crystal Empire. The pictures and paintings I've seen haven't done this grand empire justice though! I don't know how I'll capture the majestic..."[/colour]

    Ruby nodded at Doodle. [colour=#800000]"An artist? Ohh how wonderful!" [/colour]Ruby clapped her hooves together in approval for Doodle. Ruby began to wonder what being an artist was like. Apparently being an artist meant you get to travel! A pony from Canterlot..wound up in her store! She was overjoyed!

    [colour=#006400]"Sorry, I tend to go on and on about painting and art in general."[/colour]

    Ruby shook her head in disapproval. [colour=#800000]"Oh no no no. I could actually listen to you go on for a while about your profession! Being an artist sounds like fun!"[/colour] Ruby gave the mare a very energetic smile. And kept it on her face as she looked over at one of the dresses she had made. Ruby pondered for a bit at the look of the dress. Doodle wanted to know how much. [colour=#800000]"Oh! That one?[/colour]" Ruby glanced between the dress and Doodle.[colour=#800000] "Fifteen bits sound good? If you want to..you can try it on in the back. I have a changing room and all the privacy in the world." [/colour]

  8. Ruby was a bit surprised that she had already had a pony trot in her shop! She had pretty much just opened up!

    [colour=#008000] "These are gorgeous!"[/colour]

    Ruby couldn't help but blush. She had gotten compliments before...but this was unexpected from her.[colour=#800000] "Why thank you!"[/colour] She gave the mare a big smile. [colour=#800000]"Now. Welcome to my boutique! Welcome to Ruby's...!...Um..."[/colour] Ruby then put a hoof up to her chin and thought for a bit. She had actually not come up with a name for her boutique yet...so she had a few names running through her head. She shook her head at the names she didn't like and then realized that she had a customer in front of her.

    Ruby snapped back and giggled. "[colour=#800000]My apologies. I haven't thought of a name for my lovely little shop here. But anyways! Let me know if you need any help with anything!"[/colour] Ruby..had no idea if this mare wanted her to leave her alone or not. Her normal talkative nature got the best of her and all she really wanted to do was talk and talk and talk. [colour=#800000]"Soooo, I haven't seen you around here. Do you live here?"[/colour] She wanted to ask at least fifteen more questions..but decided to start with one.

  9. ((OOC: Ok! I am sorry for not posting sooner!

    :( ))

    HZpdA2K.png

    Today was the day. This doctor was going on a journey around Equestria! He hated how he couldn't keep asking normal questions to himself like, "I wonder what it will be like?" Or, "I wonder who else is going." No. He kept thinking about the same question, "What did he need to bring?" He hated it. He really had no idea what to bring other than the essentials. He had already packed things he knew he needed and he also decided to bring just a few medical supplies. Not many though, and also..you never know.

    So after a few minutes of packing and then unpacking and then repacking he finally decided he was ready. He had his things and headed out on his way to the desired location the flyer he had said to go. As he moved along he had the flyer hanging out of the side of his saddlebag. He every now and then looked down at it and reminded himself of where he was supposed to go. With a few wrong turns and a few awkward entrances into the wrong stores...he finally found the right place.

    He entered the building and to his surprise, he wasn't the first one! There was a stallion and a mare there as well. Were they together? Perhaps...possibly. But he didn't want to worry about that now. He didn't know either of them. So he decided to strike up some conversation. He had no idea if they had been talking or not.

    [colour=#8b4513]"Ello there everyone! Apologies for being late...if I am late that is. But I am here..for the journey..this is where we meet up correct?"[/colour] He tilted his head in confusion at both of the ponies.

  10. HZpdA2K.png

    This was crazy. Heart had spaced out for what seemed like just a few moments and suddenly..there were like...four billion ponies in the cafe! He wondered if he was seeing things or dreaming. He hadn't gotten much sleep last night so things were a bit crazy for him. So, when Heart thought he was not being watched..he gave himself a small hit to make sure he wasn't dreaming. He wasn't. So after that, he came back to reality and focused on the new ponies. He honestly had never seen any of these ponies before. He had no idea if any of them were or if they lived in Trottingham. He assumed they did since they were here.

    Heart decided to look over the new ponies that had arrived. He knew of Miss Latte and Stormwing. He hadn't spoken to them that much, but he knew their names. He remembered the mare with the pink mane. She seemed to be rather heavily engaged in conversation. He noticed that a new mare had appeared as well.

    [colour=#8B4513]"So you said you're a jazz singer, ah, Riff Run, was it? Oh, you don't mind if I take a seat do you?"[/colour]

    Ahhh, she was a jazz pony hmm? Guess he should have been paying attention this whole time. Some of these ponies seemed to be really interesting and he had just left reality for a bit. There was no telling how much he missed. Celestia herself could have trotted in here and Heart would have missed it. He had to admit, catching up was going to be quite difficult.

    Her name was Riff Run. She seemed rather energetic she did. There were two other stallions. One that seemed to be rather quiet and the one that had spoken earlier to Riff Run. He didn't know either of their names but he had to admit he really did want to know.

    [colour=#DDA0DD]“If you can spare a moment of your time, I would like to conduct a thorough investigation of this restaurant and see to it that everything is safe to eat and drink.”[/colour]

    [colour=#000000]​Heart turned his head towards the stallion sheriff that entered the Cafe. He looked as if he didn't mess around..and he looked serious. Heart figured he would have known all the sheriffs in Trottingham but he had never seen this stallion before. He said he was here for an investigation so Heart decided to stay out of his way and let him work.[/colour]

    Heart noticed that pretty much all the ponies had something in common. They all had drinks or food..or were waiting on either item. He wasn't that hungry or thirsty...but then if he wasn't..whey had he come to this Cafe in the first place? To sit and ponder on possible life problems in silence? No! That wasn't who Heart was. Though he did love to talk about problems. He loved to talk about anything really. But he wasn't talking now. He decided to strike up a conversation with anypony that wasn't speaking or waiting on a response.

    So, Heart noticed a stallion. He was brown like Miss Riff, but he was sitting in silence. Heart decided to speak to him. Heart then awkwardly got up and moved closer towards Luminous Charge. He pulled out a seat and sat down. He then looked up at him and decided to try something funny.

    [colour=#008000]"Hello there. Come here often?"[/colour] Heart then looked away. Okay..that came out weirder than he intended...so in a attempt to recover from his nervous he stuck out his hoof to Luminous for a formal shake. [colour=#8b4513]"[/colour][colour=#008000]Apologies for that. My name is Heart Monitor. It's nice to meet you." [/colour]

  11. Winston nodded in lying approval to the stallion. The stallion looked over at Flash and gave him a half smile. "Well I'm sure whatever report this was..I'm sure it was horrible. If it was written or even LOOKED by you two for that matter. I guarantee you it will never meet Canterlot regulations. You might as well burn it." The stallion gave a hearty laugh "But if you must go. Then go. I give you permission." The stallion laughed again.

    Winston got up.[colour=#8b4513] "Come on Flash."[/colour] Winston wanted to just turn around and hit that stallion. But he knew if he did...then he would disappear. So it was best to just leave. So that's what he did. He left..and he knew where they need to go. So Flash and Winston took off in the streets of Canterlot.

    With those eyes...watching them...

  12. Winston shuffled his hooves nervously. He heard the two someponies leave and it made him happy. He was glad to see those two ponies gone. Their ugly faces and that uptight air they had about them made him sick. He just wanted to take them and just..get rid of them. Make them go through the things he and Flash had been through. He wanted them to suffer. He wanted them to just.,

    "Mother Celestia is watching you."

    Winston then stopped thinking. His next few thoughts were about how he didn't want to hurt them. These...mods. The poster was acting as a mod in his brain. It was getting to him.

    [colour=#8b4513]"Flash we need to get out of here. I know a place that is safe. It's private...we can message there..."[/colour] Winston then frantically got up and trotted towards the door. But Winston was greeted by a large stallion. He pushed Winston down and then gave a sarcastic laugh. He was somepony. "Whoops! Didn't see you there." He said sarcastically at Winston.

    Winston looked over the stallion. He had a Bell for a cutie mark and his name tag said "Osh." He was wearing uniform and his number was "101." He belonged to the 101 troop. Winston moved back a bit. The stallion looked over Winston. [colour=#000000]"What are you doing? Get up you PATHETIC pony!"[/colour] Winston grunted in anger and then slowly got up. The stallion looked at both of them. [colour=#000000]"What are you two doing then?" [/colour]
