Shimmer Star Posted July 30, 2011 Report Share Posted July 30, 2011 Shimmer StarShimmer Star pushed the cover of her notebook closed with a sigh and looked out her window into the night. She hadn't been able to get to sleep, and had resorted to writing, but now she couldn't think of anything! She needed inspiration.The young Pegasus looked sideway to her room's door to make sure no one was coming. Once she knew no one was in the hallway, she slowly put her notebook, quill and ink into her saddlebags, grabbed her lantern in her mouth and quietly tiptoed out of her room and down the hall. She looked back to her parent's room once more before opening their front door, and stepping into the cool night.Now, if no one caught her, she could get some writing done.

ZephyrBurst Posted August 8, 2011 Report Share Posted August 8, 2011 Cloudsdale looked amazing in the gentle starlit nights. Aside from Cloudsdale being a city in the sky, it was so much different than Manehatten. The nights were rather quiet and peaceful compared to Manehatten... and really safe. Zephyr had never run into any ponies like his past self, even in places he'd expect to find them. It was both awkward and comforting for him.The night air felt great to Zephyr and he loved trotting about at night. Occasionally he would walk or fly around Cloudsdale at night. Tonight was like any of those nights. They were very uneventful, but the walks were calming and it gave him time to think while enjoying the cool night breeze. Tonight he chose to walk through a resident area. The housing was so unique for anywhere else in Equestria. So much was made through clouds. He walked down the street, just taking in the sights of the area and enjoying the quiet walk and the soft breeze through his mane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shimmer Star Posted August 9, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 9, 2011 Shimmer StarShimmer was engrossed in her writing, her teeth clamped around her special light blue quill. She smiled to herself, humming quietly under her breath as her eyes zig-zaged over what she had already written. She used a single white hoof to flip pages,re-dipping her quill in ink and not noticing that a green pegasus was coming closer as walked along the cloud made streets of Cloudsdale.

ZephyrBurst Posted August 10, 2011 Report Share Posted August 10, 2011 Zephyr continued his stroll through the street when he caught a glimpse of a young pony off to the side away from the street. The filly looked very immersed in something, looked like she may have been writing. She had a quill in her mouth, she was definitely writing something down, Zephyr assumed. He glanced around and saw no others around, so she was alone? He wondered why a filly would be out alone at night.Curious, he walked quietly closer to her from behind and when he was only a few paces away, he spoke in a calm manner, hoping to not startle her too much."Hi there." He put on a smile when he spoke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shimmer Star Posted August 28, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2011 Shimmer StarShimmer jumped slightly as she heard somepony behind her, almost dropping her quill. She set it down quickly but carefully and turned around, her first thought being that she was in trouble for being out at such a late hour. But when she saw an unfamiliar pony, she breathed a mental sigh of relief. She was safe. For now.Her second thought was wondering who the green pegasus was. But she couldn't just ask 'Who are you?' That would be rude! She finally settled on a simple, "Hi! I'm Shimmer Star!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZephyrBurst Posted August 28, 2011 Report Share Posted August 28, 2011 Zephyr figured the pegasus filly would jump or be a little startled from that. Again, he tried to speak calmly."Oh, I didn't mean to startle you. I was just out a nightly walk. Couldn't sleep and... well it's not important."Zephyr sat back on his flank to appear less imposing, he wasn't sure if he appeared scary or frightening to her. He wasn't very good on conversation starters or conversation in general, so he focused on the quill."So you're a writer?" He put his right fore hoof forward. "What kind of stuff are you writing about?" There really wasn't any reason for him to have approached this young pegasus now that he thought about it. What was she doing out here alone? He figured he would get to that later if given the chance."I almost forgot, I'm Zephyr Burst." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
