The Town of Bridle Shores
http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b244/Introbulus/PonyRPbanner1.png
Far to the west of Canterlot, further still even from Ponyville, a quiet little town is quickly springing up near a large lake.
This is Bridle Shores, situated along a large lake with a natural beach. Not far from town is Mt. Trotia, with a waterfall that feeds into the lake. The town is surrounded by a lush forest which the ponies of the town both use and nurture with delicate balance, there are some ponies that call the forest home as well.
A small business district has started to grow, with a Bakery, Dress shop, Grill, Greenhouse, Dojo, Saw mill, Snow Cone Stand, Dance Academy, and even a Soda Bar popping up for the citizens of the town. They are also experimenting with new technology such as Floppy Disk’s computer shack or the Doctor's friendship harnessing lab. In addition, there's a Farm and a Wizard's Tower on the outskirts of the town.
Much of the forest is quiet and peaceful, but deeper within the forest lurks creatures far more dangerous…

"Hmm....That's rough..."
"That's rough..."
They looked at each other, a somewhat worried expression shared between them. Then they both stared at the shovel.
And stared. And then brought the shovel very close to their faces.
"Hey, why don't we do a little magic on your shovel?"
"It'll be much easier to work with!"
Magic? Sandy's ears perked up. Now they were speaking his language!
...or at least, what used to be his language. Before the wings and all.
"I didn't know ya'll were enchanters. Or, well, you were, at least." He nodded to Top Hat's horn. "What sorta enchantments did y'have in mind?"
"Mmm...sure hun," She smiled and gave him a nod. She then got to work prettying up his feathers though of course she took advantage of his sensitive wings for some prime teasing every so often. "Mmm, like this babe?'" She asked smoothing some out whilst going for maximum ticklish sensation.
Of course, soon enough, Silverpine was soon squirming and fidgeting from all the teasing Gear was administering, blushing furiously. Poor stallion had to clamp down on his lips a couple of time to muffle his own delightful moans. "Y-y-yes, like that," he sighed, as another shudder ran through him. "Ooooh boy, no wonder the pegasi think this is a recreational activity."

Gear barely stifled a chuckle and nibbled down on her bottom pony lip to keep herself in check. "I almost have wing-envy for that reason." She winked. After six minutes of grooming her sweetheart, she finished and stood back to admire her work and to see the state she left Silverpine in.

And what a state Silverpine was in. The stallion was practically a puddle on the bench he was sitting on now, his tongue lolling out slightly. A blissful sigh was the only sound that escaped his lips as he lay there, his wings all preened up and ready to go.
Perfect for Gear if she wished to capitalise on their alone time. :smallbiggrin:

"Babe...yer such a pansy, can't handle yer grooming, what a lousy pegasi," She chuckled and kissed the puddle that was Silverpine on his cheek. "Mmm..babe," She began as she found the puddle's pony lips and gave them a smooch. "I'll be right back..give me a mo'...gonna brush my mane real quick-like." She smirked and threw the towel from her head at the puddle giving him the sight of slightly wavy damp haired Gear as she trotted off to find herself a brush! Quest time!

Is that a sigh of approval from the puddle? Nopony could tell. :smalltongue:
Anywho, Silverpine would soon spring back to his good old self, putting the last touches to his grooming, all the while patiently waiting for Gear.
(I do believe anypony else with characters available could run into Gear. :smalltongue: )

"Oh, we're both magic specialists. Together!"
Oh boy. When they started talking about magic, whatever came out would be especially bizarre.
"It's true. When we were married, she got half my magic."
Anyway, they looked at the shovel.
"I know, we could make it lighter! That way, it'd be easier to move!"
"Or we could make it so it becomes sticky when you want it to, so no sand can escape, even if you turn it upside-down!"

"Glad to see ya ain't a puddle anymore," Gearstride smirked as she appeared in the doorway to the bathroom. Her mane was back in its usual ponytail though this time she had a small braid running through her mane as well. "I do like you this way, as a liquid it makes it hard to kiss you."

Silverpine laughed, running a hoof through his mane. "C'mon. I might be ticklish, but I'm not that weak." He got off the bench and trotted up to his love to give her a kiss. "So what now?"

"Mmm...I dunno actually...uhm...we can uhm......what is it that you want to do? We tend to just do whatever comes to my mind...so..babe...what would /you/ like to do?" She smiled at him and slightly tilted her head.

Well, they were alone in the room. And she did ask. "Mmm, I think... we should be doing..." Silverpine leaned in to give his marefriend a passionate smooch right on her sweet pony lips. "...this..." he whispered as their lips meet.

She was admittedly caught off guard by his quite forward move but instincts took over as she kissed him back and closed her eyes.

"Quick...you can't...can't be here...I've..moved on...No...don't get up..stay there." Fox lifted his hoof to gesture to the mare to remain seated in the bean bag chair.
After the initial surprise kiss, things were cleared up with the officer and he was dismissed, no charges being pressed, their crowd disbanded. Fox and Quick sat in his office, Fox at his desk, Quick on the bean bag chair.
"Fox..." The mare uttered. "You don't...mean that..You know I met her...the other day."
"W..what?" He asked caught off guard as he glanced down at the combo locked bottom drawer of his desk. He then looked back at Quick Step.
"I...yes...not the best of meetings...but...I told her...I was not going to give you up...not again...that was my fool's mistake." She said looking him in the eyes.
"You broke my heart."
"...And I'm sorry about that...I was a different mare then...but Fox...Come on...I know...you still believe in us...Why else else would you keep photographs of us together in your little locked drawer?"
"Wh-what what? How did you?" He paled as he glanced down at the bottom locked drawer.
"I know you Fox...I figured out you had the number sequence set for the day, month, and year we broke up. Sentimental Fox, it could have been any random sequence of numbers but you had it made for those numbers." She said as she sat up straight.
"Fox...we were so happy in those photos...we could...be that way again."

"I...suppose both would be a help? Lighter shovel's easier t'use, an' a sticky-shovel would mean that I wouldn't have to do overhead hefts to fling the sand where it needs to go. But..."
He scratched his head. "Half of your magic..." Sandy tossed the words around in his head, but no matter which way they landed they still made no sense. "...how does all this work exactly?"
She was admittedly caught off guard by his quite forward move but instincts took over as she kissed him back and closed her eyes.

(Alas, this little scene was not meant to be. :smalltongue:)
The two lovestruck pair was then suddenly rudely interrupted by a polite cough behind Silverpine. The stallion yelped and pulled off the kiss quickly, looking behind to see who it was. Gear however, had a good view of just who.
A certain ice mage. A book on non-unicorn magic floated close by; evidently Icy had been reading when she came in.
"Would you two kindly get a room instead of engaging in such lewd display of public affection?" Icy said.
"Oh um... ah... I thought the room was empty," Silverpine blurted, looking a little embarrassed.

Gearstride wrinkled her muzzle in annoyance at being left with 'cold lips' until she opened her eyes and then smirked after the cut off kiss and Icy's words. "We did get a room, you just happened to walk in it." She smiled cheekily. "What are you doing reading in the restroom?...Got a long haul coming?" Gearstride snickered.

"What I do is my business, thank you very much," Icy said, an air of annoyance evident. "Why you and your coltfriend just respect public space, I'll never get." She scrunched her muzzle and hmphs, walking past Gear and an incredibly embarrassed Silverpine who seemed to be facehoofing permanently now.

Gearstride had a permacheshire grin on her face as Icy walked past. "I'mma guess ya ain't gonna wanna talk about the little incident at your coltfriend's dance studio then, and here I thought we could have a nice little conversation." Not really.

Oh Gear. You do so love to tread on thin ice. Icy froze as Gear mentioned the little incident, swivelling her head slowly to stare at the xanadu mare. "... what incident?" she asked frostily.

"Guess ya haven't..Hmm, well, this morning someone had broken into his studio...turns out, twas this one mare..an ex marefriend judging by the way she forced a smoochy lip to lip kiss on him. Drama~" Gearstride said oh so /tactfully/.

A dangerous look entered Icy's blue eyes. "An ex marefriend you say? Tell me. What does she look like?"

Gearstride casually described Quick Step.
Gearstride casually described Quick Step.
The temperature of the room seemed to drop almost precipitably as the ice mage took in every word Gearstride has to say. Silverpine shivered as he looked at Icy, then at Gear. This was definitely something that was going to end badly for somepony; it had lover's spat written all over it.
"I see," Icy said simply when Gearstride finished her tale. "Excuse me, I have... ponies to talk to." With that she abrupt made an about-turn and left the room.
"... Fox is so going to get it, huh?" Silverpine commented once the ice mage was out of earshot.

"Wow.....well ahem...Bridle Shores just got a whole lot more interestin'..." Gearstride crookedly smirked, both brows raised. "...I did do right in letting her know right?" She chuckled a little.
"Wow.....well ahem...Bridle Shores just got a whole lot more interestin'..." Gearstride crookedly smirked, both brows raised. "...I did do right in letting her know right?" She chuckled a little.
Silverpine shrugged. "She's bound to find out eventually. You just let her know a little earlier." He glanced out the door, flicking his tail a little anxiously. "... part of me wants to go back and make they all don't come to blows or something."
Meanwhile...
A dark cloud seemed to hang over Icy as she made her way towards Fox's studio. The pair, if they were still hanging around, might soon hear a steady knock on the door.
"I...suppose both would be a help? Lighter shovel's easier t'use, an' a sticky-shovel would mean that I wouldn't have to do overhead hefts to fling the sand where it needs to go. But..."
He scratched his head. "Half of your magic..." Sandy tossed the words around in his head, but no matter which way they landed they still made no sense. "...how does all this work exactly?"
Top Hat puffed his chest out proudly.
"Well, you know how when you get married, your partner gets half of everything you have? Well, my magic is something I have! So we share it, 50-50%!"
Silk Scarf seemed to be thinking about it anew. Her brow furrowed. She looked over at Top Hat.
"...Hey, Top Hat?"
"What's that, Silk Scarf?"
"...We're technically not married, though."
This seemed to give the big stallion pause. He opened his eyes and scrunched up his face, before going into a prouder manic grin.
"Why, that's simple, Silk Scarf! Haven't you ever heard of common-law marriage? Besides, who's the law to say what the rules are? We're a couple of counter-culture rebels!"
This seemed to satisfy Silk Scarf, who beamed.
"That's incredible!"
"That answer your question, Sandy? It's share and share alike!"

"Heh...wanna go play guardian angel then?" Gearstride asked playfully, she seemed /less/ worried than Silverpine about this matter.
Meanwhile...
At the Leaping Pony Studio, Icy would have noticed the broken glass double doors and it was empty and quiet, no students. Though there seemed to be conversation or something happening in Fox's office.
--
"Quick...please...don't do this to me...I was happy...-" Fox began as he heard the knock on his office door. He furrowed his brow and moved to get up but was beat by the aptly named Quick Step as she opened the door herself...
"Heh...wanna go play guardian angel then?" Gearstride asked playfully, she seemed /less/ worried than Silverpine about this matter.
"... well don't want to seem too nosy," Silverpine said with a sigh.

Quick Step would come face-to-face with a grim-faced ice-blue mare, her icy gaze locking onto Quick as soon as she opened the door. "Miss Quick Step. I see you found it convenient to commit vandalism now."

"... well don't want to seem too nosy," Silverpine said with a sigh.
"We're a little past coming off nosy my dear," She teased. She then brought her hoof to her chin, a playful smirk on her face. "Or you know...if you want sweetcheeks, we can continue what we were going to do...though perhaps a room change?....Or we can go totally be busybodies, your choice love." She grinned.
Quick Step would come face-to-face with a grim-faced ice-blue mare, her icy gaze locking onto Quick as soon as she opened the door. "Miss Quick Step. I see you found it convenient to commit vandalism now."
Icy would be met with a steely gaze and then a door shut on her face. Icy would then hear Fox exclaim Quick's name. The door would then be opened again as Fox looked over at Icy, Quick Step off to the side. His face fretful, his nervousness in full bloom.
"I...Icy.."

"I suppose it's none of our business. Also, you do realise I have an entire room to myself here, right?" Silverpine said with a playful grin and slight blush. He wrapped a wing around his love. "C'mon, let's take her advice and head there."

Her expression softened slightly when Fox appeared. "Fox... you were going to show her the door, right?" she asked, a slightly hopeful note in her voice.

"Heheh...very well, lead the way, that way I have a nice view." She mischievously grinned and gestured with a hoof that he lead the way.
Her expression softened slightly when Fox appeared. "Fox... you were going to show her the door, right?" she asked, a slightly hopeful note in her voice.
Fox flattened his ears and frowned, pursing his mouth closed and then fumbled to find words. "Uhm y--"
"We were having a private discussion before you made yourself known." Quick cut in and glared at Icy.
"Heheh...very well, lead the way, that way I have a nice view." She mischievously grinned and gestured with a hoof that he lead the way.
Silverpine wasn't quite sure what she meant by that, but led the way anyway, giving her a nice view. :smalltongue: Of course the stallion would just lead them both to his room, where it was much unchanged from previously, save for more stacks of books and papers that were scattered around.

"We were having a private discussion before you made yourself known." Quick cut in and glared at Icy.
"Ah. Private discussion, eh?" Icy shot back, her voice all chilly again. "What could possibly concern Fox that would not concern me as well, hm?" She sidled up to Fox and stood close to him protectively.

She had a nice view of his flank. When the two entered his room she threw herself on his bed and got cozy. "Papers you gotta grade, babe?" She asked as she looked at his slightly paper-y messy room.

It would seem that Fox's mouth was not available, like he caught the dumbs or something. His mouth just seemed not to work.
"Us getting back together," Quick glowered at Icy.
"Wha..what?" Oh his mouth seemed to work.

"That answer your question, Sandy? It's share and share alike!"
As a matter of fact, that only raised further questions. Sandy wrinkled his brow, turning over words while the loving pair beamed happily at each other...
A much smaller unicorn trotted alongside a much larger pegasus, sharing in the simple joy of a morning walk along the beach. Every step leading to some new dune or coastal formation that he just had to tell her all about. She'd drape her wing over him to shield him from the odd bit of sea spray, and he loved how she smiled and laughed along with his stupid little beach facts...
Sandy bit his lip - feeling na aching pang in his heart - and took to nosing at his feathers awkwardly. "Well...su-sure. Why not? Go ahead an' try some magic on that old thing." He trotted backwards and sat his flank down to watch, kneading the sand anxiously with his forehooves.
She had a nice view of his flank. When the two entered his room she threw herself on his bed and got cozy. "Papers you gotta grade, babe?" She asked as she looked at his slightly paper-y messy room.
"Yeah. You wouldn't believe how much work these foals can be once school is in full swing." Silverpine sighed and flopped on the bed as well, cuddling the mare close and planting a kiss on her muzzle.
It would seem that Fox's mouth was not available, like he caught the dumbs or something. His mouth just seemed not to work.

"Wha..what?" Oh his mouth seemed to work.
"Ah. Fox, would you kindly tell her to sod off?" Icy said, glaring at Quick Step venomously.

She closed her eyes and smiled as he smooched her muzzle. 'Heh, so Mister Silverpine, whatcha teachin' them little ones anyway?"
"Ah. Fox, would you kindly tell her to sod off?" Icy said, glaring at Quick Step venomously.
"Tck.....no..!...I won't sod off!" Quick nickered and shook her head, her forehooves lightly stamping the ground. "I..I........no...I'm not leaving..." She furrowed her brow and slightly puffed her cheeks. Fox flattened his ears and shrank back.
"I..I..you..should..-..." Fox found himself tongue tied as he backed up being a useless, nervous wreck.
She closed her eyes and smiled as he smooched her muzzle. 'Heh, so Mister Silverpine, whatcha teachin' them little ones anyway?"
"Everything they need to know," Silverpine said lazily. "More specifically, I usually just stick to general studies, maths, geography, history, equestrian language and maybe throw in a couple of science lessons."
"Tck.....no..!...I won't sod off!" Quick nickered and shook her head, her forehooves lightly stamping the ground. "I..I........no...I'm not leaving..." She furrowed her brow and slightly puffed her cheeks. Fox flattened his ears and shrank back.
"I..I..you..should..-..." Fox found himself tongue tied as he backed up being a useless, nervous wreck.
Icy seized on that indecision like an eagle on a mouse. "Oh? Why not? Do you think you have business here?" she inquired coldly. "I think you overestimate your relationship with Fox."

"Hehe, geography was always my favorite subject. I remember being stubborn with my tutor in refusing to move on in my other lessons," She chuckled and stretched a little in bed.
Icy seized on that indecision like an eagle on a mouse. "Oh? Why not? Do you think you have business here?" she inquired coldly. "I think you overestimate your relationship with Fox."
"No..j-just shut up!...I have my business with him...Foxxy baby...she's wrong," She said as she turned to Fox, her voice becoming more pleadingly. The stallion really didn't know what to do, and that was, bad due to implications.
As a matter of fact, that only raised further questions. Sandy wrinkled his brow, turning over words while the loving pair beamed happily at each other...

The lightness spell looked normal enough...But for the sticking spell, they had to pull out...A mirror?
"I don't actually know a spell that will make things sticky at will...But I do know a spell that does the opposite -- making things unsticky when you want them to stick (it's what they use on post-its),"
Top Hat explained, in a tone of voice that sounded like it was supposed to be a conspiratorial whisper...But with his volume control troubles and his manic eyebrows, sounded instead like evil scheming.
"So if you fire it in a mirror, it'll make things sticky when you want it to stick!"
"Incredible!"
Top Hat fired a spell at the shovel into a mirror. It bounced off and hit the shovel, at least.
"Well, go ahead!" "Well go ahead!"
"Hehe, geography was always my favorite subject. I remember being stubborn with my tutor in refusing to move on in my other lessons," She chuckled and stretched a little in bed.
"I'd say you would be an unholy terror for any teacher who wants to keep his sanity," Silverpine said, chuckling. "Although it would kinda make sense. With all the adventuring you done..."
"No..j-just shut up!...I have my business with him...Foxxy baby...she's wrong," She said as she turned to Fox, her voice becoming more pleadingly. The stallion really didn't know what to do, and that was, bad due to implications.
"What am I wrong about, hm?" Icy asked sharply. "To get you to leave Fox alone?"

"Yea, ya know...on the subject...I'm really aching for more traveling..Bridle Shores is nice and all but..." She drifted off and softly sighed and flopped her head on Silverpine's chest and cozied up against him.
"What am I wrong about, hm?" Icy asked sharply. "To get you to leave Fox alone?"
"J-just shut up!"
And then Fox stepped in with a nicker and stared down at Quick as if though he was going to pimp slap her. "Quick....you need to move on...as hard as it is..you just have to. I did it and...so do you.." His words soft, gentle, nervous. She frowned and furrowed her brows.
"But..I don't want to.."

The lightness spell looked normal enough...But for the sticking spell, they had to pull out...A mirror?
"I don't actually know a spell that will make things sticky at will...But I do know a spell that does the opposite -- making things unsticky when you want them to stick (it's what they use on post-its),"
Top Hat explained, in a tone of voice that sounded like it was supposed to be a conspiratorial whisper...But with his volume control troubles and his manic eyebrows, sounded instead like evil scheming.
"So if you fire it in a mirror, it'll make things sticky when you want it to stick!"
"Incredible!"
Top Hat fired a spell at the shovel into a mirror. It bounced off and hit the shovel, at least.
"Well, go ahead!" "Well go ahead!"
In all of the years of training and study at the Earth Magics Academy, not once had Sandy seen a mirror in the list of required materials. Perhaps if he looked in the mirror, he'd see a Sandy who'd believe all of this would actually work staring back at him?
...oh dear goodness, the crazy was spreading again.
Before his brain could get any more scrambled, Sandy picked up his shovel. Certainly felt a good deal lighter. Now for the real test, if he could call it that. He tentatively dipped it into a dune and scooped up a load of sand. Thinking sticky thoughts, he tipped the shovel over...
"Yea, ya know...on the subject...I'm really aching for more traveling..Bridle Shores is nice and all but..." She drifted off and softly sighed and flopped her head on Silverpine's chest and cozied up against him.
Silverpine stroked her mane thoughtfully, wrapping a wing around the mare. "Well... technically nothing's stopping you from moving on..." he said softly.
"J-just shut up!"
And then Fox stepped in with a nicker and stared down at Quick as if though he was going to pimp slap her. "Quick....you need to move on...as hard as it is..you just have to. I did it and...so do you.." His words soft, gentle, nervous. She frowned and furrowed her brows.
"But..I don't want to.."
"Why don't you?" Icy said, raising an eyebrow. "You... left him years ago. Why now? What happened?"

Silverpine stroked her mane thoughtfully, wrapping a wing around the mare. "Well... technically nothing's stopping you from moving on..." he said softly.
She furrowed her brows sternly and wrinkled her muzzle. "You know full well that's not true."
"Why don't you?" Icy said, raising an eyebrow. "You... left him years ago. Why now? What happened?"
"Years ago? What have you been telling her Fox??" Quick nickered and shook her mane.
"Bhwuh..uh..uhm....no...just that it was little over half a year.." Fox shrunk against his hunched shoulders.
"Regardless...Miss..Icy...my reasons...they're mine...I don't have to tell you anything!..."
She furrowed her brows sternly and wrinkled her muzzle. "You know full well that's not true."
"That's why I said technically, silly," Silverpine said with a gentle cheek nuzzle. "I... I don't know if I could follow you out there. I mean... I have to give everything up..."

"That's why I said technically, silly," Silverpine said with a gentle cheek nuzzle. "I... I don't know if I could follow you out there. I mean... I have to give everything up..."
"Not even a 'technically' applies here my love.." She said with a low hum and casually stroked his foreleg. "I know...and I'm not asking you..to. It would be great but I even I know you traveling with me, just wouldn't be a thing."
"Well. I think I deserve the right to know. After all, you're here trying to make up with my coltfriend. Nopony would just change their mind suddenly after six months," Icy said with a frown.
"Never said it was suddenly....it seemed to happen that way...." Quick puffed her cheeks a little and plopped down on her haunches. "I was a fool who drove him away.."

"So... what do you plan to do?" Silverpine asked, blinking, nuzzling her again.
"Never said it was suddenly....it seemed to happen that way...." Quick puffed her cheeks a little and plopped down on her haunches. "I was a fool who drove him away.."
"And now you come back to beg for his forgiveness?" Icy said, a little sarcastically.

"So... what do you plan to do?" Silverpine asked, blinking, nuzzling her again.
"I don't know...I'm so conflicted...I mean...I don't want to leave you again like before..." She sighed and puffed up a bang.
"And now you come back to beg for his forgiveness?" Icy said, a little sarcastically.
"Yes and for a second chance.." She replied ignoring the sarcasm.
Fox frowned and flattened his ears. "I'm sorry Quick...but it just can't happen...its too late for that second chance, I'm with Icy."
"I don't know...I'm so conflicted...I mean...I don't want to leave you again like before..." She sighed and puffed up a bang.
Silverpine planted a playful kiss on the mare. "Well, I feel bad for holding you back like this too you know..." He sighed a little. "I wish these things were as easy as solving a maths equation."
"Yes and for a second chance.." She replied ignoring the sarcasm.
Fox frowned and flattened his ears. "I'm sorry Quick...but it just can't happen...its too late for that second chance, I'm with Icy."
Icy's lips quirked up a little at Fox's reply, and she leaned over to give him a kiss on the cheek, just to show her affection. Then with a hard look, she turned to Quick. "I'm sorry, Miss Quick. You had your chance. I don't want to sound mean, but there's only room for one here."

"Urrrrgh...blaarrgh..' She bemoaned and wrinkled her muzzle. "Gyah....I don't think I want to talk about this anymore...its depressing...let's make out instead."
Icy's lips quirked up a little at Fox's reply, and she leaned over to give him a kiss on the cheek, just to show her affection. Then with a hard look, she turned to Quick. "I'm sorry, Miss Quick. You had your chance. I don't want to sound mean, but there's only room for one here."
Quick flinched seeing Icy give Fox a kiss and tensed up more. "No...its.." She let out a deep exhale and shook her head. "I won't accept it...I'm not...perhaps for now...but...things change.."
"Urrrrgh...blaarrgh..' She bemoaned and wrinkled her muzzle. "Gyah....I don't think I want to talk about this anymore...its depressing...let's make out instead."
So, Silverpine silenced further words from the mare with a kiss to the lips, wrapping his wings around her. :smalltongue:

Quick looked to Fox but he just looked away. "Its best that you just go.." He said softly, his expression taut.
The mare just looked at the two defeated, walking backwards towards the door, shaking her head. "No...its not..It won't be." She said refusing to just believe it. "No...say all you want...but no...No!" She shouted before jolting off. Fox flinched, fighting back the urge to chase her and just stood there instead.

Icy was considerably less unhappy to see Quick go, even if a twinge of pity struck her heart at the sight of the desperate mare bolting off. Pushing that aside, she wrapped Fox in a hug. "Are you alright?" she asked softly.

...and then he bumped his head against the side of the desk and grimaced, rubbing his head. "Ow ow....ow."

"Heh...wanna try again? I'll try not to hit my head this time," He sheepishly smiled and the spot on his head where he hit it. Frankly, he was trying to forget earlier, shove it far back in the backburner, run away from it. "I assure you the bean bag is quite comfy."

Well there you go; it...works?! Sandy pulled a double-take. "What in th' hay-how does that even-?!" He poked and he prodded, but the sand just wouldn't budge. He turned it upside-down to get a look...and got a face-full of sand for his trouble.
"Ack! Pthpptht!" He spat out sand and shook himself clean. "What d'you two put in that mirror?" he asked of the magical duo. As he did, he experimentally touched the shovel, seeing if his hoof would stick to it too.

Fox held her and guided her down on the bean bag chair, kissing her, being careful not to hit his head this time. Kisses on cheeks, kisses on her neck, kisses everywhere on her face and muzzle. The stallion relayed the mare with affections when he felt something off, another presence in the room. He opened his eyes and glanced at the open doorway to his office and then his eyes went wide.
"B-Ba-Barley Tea...!..aahh..ow.." His head shot up that somehow he still managed to hit his head. He stared at the young foal with a blush on his cheeks. The young foal in question stood there with a taut awkward expression, her cheeks slightly pink. "Ow...ow...what are you doing here?" He managed.
The young light brown-orange filly foal sputtered and managed some words. "I...just wanted to see if we were still going to have classes today still...considerin' the policepony that was here...so...I didn't know if class was gonna be canceled." She looked at Icy, her cheeks still pink and timidly waved.
"Oh...ah..uhm...yeah....class is canceled for today uhm...but..tomorrow, things will be back on schedule." Fox replied trying to play it cool even if it was too late for that.

"... hello there," Icy managed to say, giving Barley a small wave in return, and slightly wincing when she sensed the foal wasn't looking. Not the most pleasant social encounter she was looking for. "Ah... perhaps you could return later? Mister Fox and I has something very important to discuss." Lame, she knew, but excuses needed to be made.

Fox did his best to keep his flushed cheeks in check as he tried to deal with the young foal. The foal looked at Icy and slowly nodded her head, pink cheeks, taut expression still in place.
"O-ohkay...Uhm..." She puffed her cheeks and glanced at the door. She then looked at Fox and the quickly scampered out of his office. The young foal was very confused, mommy and daddy kissed sometimes like at breakfast but she'd never seen them do something like Mister Fox and that mare did! She had questions for mommy and daddy.
Fox shut the door to his office and locked it shaking his head and sheepishly looking at Icy. "Sorry about that sweetie...I should have locked the door from the start."

Though in all probability, the kissus would end only some time later, with Icy finally pulling away when she finally remembered she needed to breath, and that she was feeling heated and such. She nuzzled her love gently, using a hoof to right a misplaced lock of mane. "That was wonderful..." she murmured.

Fox Trot sat on the floor next to the bean bag chair, his head laying on her chest, a big ol' smile on his face you'd think that the events of earlier didn't happened.
"Heh, it was quite the important discussion," He softly chuckled, glancing up lovingly at his lady love.

"Oh hey sweetie...check out the peppers....these ones are very fresh...they'll be perfect," He grinned and gestured at the stall owner that he wanted to buy these peppers.
"I've haven't been to the open market in a while for some reason," He told Icy with an amused expression.

"I think you've been working too hard," Icy said with a smirk, then glancing down to look at the peppers. She wasn't one to be able to tell a good pepper from a bad one, so in the end she just shrugged.

After paying the peppers and bagging them into his saddle bag he cantered over to a stall selling fresh bottles of cider.
"Hey sweetie, would ya mind a bottle of cider as part of dinner?" Fox asked though his eyes seemed to want her to say 'yes'.

*FLASH*
Garion found himself suddenly engulfed in a sea of fluffy cloth. No wurm, no wagon, no sky, just pitch-darkness in the wake of that bright light. He tried to move a hoof to rub the spots from his eyes, but the cloth had tangled itself around his legs. And even as the spots dimmed, the darkness remained. "Miss Gwyn?" called out the colt worriedly. "Miss Gwyn, where'd you go? Why're all the lights out? Why can't I move?"
"...Miss Gwyn?"
[Silverpine and Gear's Room]
As the two ponies embraced, a bright flash of light came from a nearby closet, followed by a muffled voice and the sounds of a struggle.

He grinned and pecked her cheek as he made his purchase of the cider and then afterwards purchased the rest of the ingredients and a lb of corn tortillas leaving his saddle bags sagging a bit.

Silverpine opened his eyes just as the light faded, enough to spy the last rays of dimming light in the closet. The sounds only made it all the more suspicious. "Mmm, yeah, it came from the closet," Silverpine murmured, feeling remarkably reluctant to get up and investigate, what with all the kisses and nuzzles.

[Gear and Silverpine's Room]
The noises from the closet did not stop. On the contrary, they seemed to get a bit louder and a lot more frantic...
[Location Sorta Known]
"Miss Gwyn? Mister Grills? Where are you?! I'm stuck!!!" cried out Garion. Miss Gwyn wasn't coming, Mister Grills wasn't coming, nopony was coming. What was going on?! "Somepony! Anypony! Hellllllllllllp! Go get Miss Gwyn and tell her I need hellllllllllllp! Please!!!"
The cloths around his face grew damp with tears.
(Giving Gear a chance to respond in the Misc. Adventure)
The shovel fell from Sandy's limp grasp.
His jaw fell slack, and one could almost smell the smoke from his short-circuiting brain. "That...but that doesn't work...mirrors don't....non-magical mirrors don't...b-but it did...and it shouldn't have...and...arghhhhhhh..." Sandy flopped onto his haunches, cradling his poor, aching head.
Just when he thought he was used to this place, some new weirdness had to come along and shatter a little piece of his vision of reality.
"...Does that mean we won?"
"That's right, Silk Scarf! We beat those nay-sayers and their 'rules' with our wonderful insight yet again!"
They laughed, laying their forehooves on each other's shoulders.
"That was a good match, Sandy."
"Why don't we go inside somewhere and get a drink -- victor's treat!"
They've apparently decided that this was some sort of duel all along. They patted him on the back.
"Darn...I was hoping I was just going crazy..." Gearstride groaned and wrinkled her muzzle. "Should we check it out or leave it to fate?" She asked between kisses, her eyes occasionally glancing the way of the closet.

"... yeah, I think it's one of those things that just won't go away until you look at it." Silverpine gave her a final nuzzle, before rolling off and trotting to the door.
"Hello? Who's there?" he called.
"Oh no no...I'm not going to trouble you, heck, if you need me to carry anything I'll be glad to do so," He said with a weary smile. Don't listen to him Icy and his reasoning!
"Nonsense. I'll hear none of that." Icy lifted one of his bags with her magic and placed it on her own back.

When Gearstride heard the loud yelling of what sounded like a foal, she fell the bed in surprise. She dismissed it earlier since she couldn't hear much but now the audio was much too loud and clear to just dismiss.
She picked herself up and rubbed her chin with a slight groan. "Ow....anyways...Gwyn?..Grills?...Hey..Grills...ain 't he that restaurant owner who was with ya on yer boy's night out?"
She made her way to the closet door and cautiously opened it, and then she raised a brow at the sight in there.
"What the?..."

Fox tautly frowned and pouted his lower pony lip. "Sweetie...." He sighed and puffed his cheeks. "Fine....but only that bag, kay?"

Both ponies would be treated to the sight of a black tail and a single, sand-dusted leg poking out of a pile of towels. The leg twitched slightly, seemingly unable to free itself. "Hello?" A voice emanated from the pile. "Who is it? I wanna get out of here...where's Miss Gwyn...*sniffle*"

"A kid?" Silverpine said with a blink, looking over to Gear. Finding no answers there, he shrugged then stepped forward. "Hey... I'm Silverpine. How did you find your way here?" he said gently, kneeling and undoing the pile of towels with his mouth. The fact that their mysterious visitor mentioned Gwyn and Grills put him a little at ease; at least they know who to ask.

[Beach]
Sandy stared dumbly at the magical shovel that had no right to be magical. He dimly recalled the events of the last night that sent him out to the beach in the first place. Together, the two formed one, definitive conclusion;
"I could use a drink somethin' fierce."
[Civic Center]
Pulling aside the towels revealed a young, pure-white colt with a short, black mane, lightly sprinkled with sand and other sea-grelch. As he blinked teary, sea-green eyes in the sudden light, he struggled up to his hooves and managed a sloppy bow. "*sniffle* He-hello, Mister Silverpine a-and Lady. I'm...I'm Garion. I-It's nice *sniffle* to meet you." Garion looked about the room, confusion and worriment evident on his face. "I-I don't know, where's here? Where's...where's Miss Gwyn?"
Odd; Silverpine knew most of the little colts and fillies in town, but he'd never once seen this little guy in his classroom.

That indeed raised an eyebrow from Silverpine. Still, he kept his friendly smile, and patted the colt gently. "Hi there... it's nice to meet you too. You're... in my room. In the Civic Centre. How did you get here? Did Miss Gwyn send you?" Magic. It had to be magic.

Gearstride watched in amusement, not that she found a crying foal funny but she was amused at the random change in events. One moment she was making out with her coltfriend and the next moment she was staring at a foal who magically appeared in Silverpine's closet.
She leaned over to wipe at the poor foal's tears with the bundles of blankets he was in and waited for his response to Silverpine.

Gear'd have many more tears to wipe up; Silverpine's question made the little colt suddenly choke up. "I...I don't know. Did she? I-I didn't think I was going away. I thought we were g-going home. Wyrmple was really really happy t-to see us, then it went all bright and...and...then I wasn't home, a-and Miss Gwyn...where'd she go..." Garion's lip wibbled and he all but buried his face in the offered blanket.

Garion wrapped his little legs around Silverpine's middle and nodded tearfully. "Uh-huh. W-we live in a big old t-tower in the woods...we were just g-going back when...when..." He sniffed and sobbed into the stallion's coat. Even if they could get him home, where was Miss Gwyn? Why did she send him away? What if...what if he never saw her again? Just the thought brought fresh aches of loneliness, and the colt hugged Silverpine tightly.
"Jeeze...ack...I ain't so good with a cryin' kid...makes me uncertain of how to go about this.." Gearstride whispered to Silverpine and furrowed her brow.
"Just keep smiling and let me do the talking," Silverpine whispered back, his smile never leaving his face. The irony of him having to play mother flitted through the back of his mind.

Garion snuffed up and nodded slowly. "Th-there's a path in the woods Miss Gwyn always takes. We go in a lil' wagon and she pushes it real fast and I ask her things and she tells me to sit still and then we're almost there," babbled the colt.

"Okay, okay. Slow down. We'll take it one step at a time," Silverpine said, inserting a little bit of a joking tone to calm the colt down. No harm in a little humour after all.

The colt pricked his ears up, evidently trying to listen in on Gear and Silverpine's whispered conversation.

And so the three were off to the Bits and Credit thread as the three would pass a certain duo of ice blue and reddish brown. Gearstride glanced them for a split second, wondering if things were all patched up.
Though rather than annoy, she just have them a greeting nod and was on her way.
-
Fox blinked but his body was already still in a forward moving momentum, and Gear and them were long gone before he could return the nod. Anyways, the two made their way to the kitchen where he plopped the bags he had on the table and collapsed in a chair.
"Phew....glad to make here before my limbs turned to noodles," He said with a tired smile.

He smiled brightly at her back. The way they were acting right now, you wouldn't have guessed what happened earlier happened. And Fox liked that just fine, keep it all on the backburner, or rather pretend it didn't happen.
And so the disillusioned couple went about in a cutesy cooking montage. The chillies being washed and then sliced up, being added into the blender with salt, water, cilantro and other appropriate flavorings. The blender spinning out of control as it flew about the contents making a mess. The two cleaning up and laughing, him licking off the sauce and then flushing. The two finishing up with showers to start round 2 in the kitchen. Shredding the cheese. Though then came the oven and lightly frying up in olive oil the corn tortillas.
"Its okay sweetie....I got this, just hand me the corn tortillas...Oh! and can you get me a plate please?"

"Thank you Assistant Chef Touch," A smooch on her cheek. Anyways, Fox took to the next several minutes frying up in olive oil, corn tortillas that have been dipped in the sauce and filled with cheese, rolled and then of course fried. Watching him he seemed to be having fun, a sort of child like glint to it.

"Huzzah and we're done~" Fox proudly stated as he carried a plate of his granny's styled enchiladas. He was looking forward to this since that one time.

Icy flashed Fox a warm smile. "That's very considerate of you, Fox. Oh right, we need some cutlery..." Mirroring Fox's actions, she began looking all around the kitchen. In which she would eventually turn up plates hidden in a cupboard.
"There we go..." she said, setting a plate for the each of them, and diving the enchiladas equally between them, with a single leftover on the plate.

"And now we eat!" He smiled and sat down at the table a moment later with some glasses of milk with straws.

(I can't believe I left this hanging.)
Icy waited until Fox had the first bite, before starting on her own enchilada. It proved... surprisingly delicious, with the slight hint of spiciness just enough to make her delicate tastebuds tingle. "Fox, I think you outdone yourself this time!" she said happily, quickly chewing through her first enchilada.

Of course there was never a first time to be outdone, but he wasn't about to remind her of that. He smooched her cheek instead and smiled. "Well thank ya kindly ma'am, I did have the help of a lovely assistant there though."

"She was like the closest thing I had to a mum....She was fun in her own way...very riley...spunky tough love-like." He chuckled and shook his head and then munched on some more food. He savored the way the corn tortilla kept the spiciness in check and the gooey cheese inside. He had a big doofy smile on at the moment.

"I think you two would have gotten along, maybe butt heads a bit due to your guys' strong-willedness and stubborness, though the end the of you would have found common ground in putting me in my place," Fox laughed and then planted a smooch on Icy's muzzle.

"He's a...very busy pony, but a good guy he ah....was the one who helped me get the connections for landing a spot in my old dance troupe, even if he wasn't too fond of me becoming a professional dancer. He rather I took up the family business, but still he supported me and my passion for dance," Fox Trot faintly smiled. "He said it couldn't be helped....when mother decided to name me what she named me it was 'inevitable' what I was going to be, hehe."

He weakly smiled and then stuffed his mouth with an enchilada bite.

Flattered by his words, Icy chuckled a little. "Oh, you. Still, I'd hate to see you so estranged with your mother. I know how precious family can be..." Her mind briefly flitted back to her own family, and how long it had been since she had sent a letter... perhaps she should write one today.

"Mmm...I should probably clean up the dishes...So, sweetie, is this a dish you'd like again in the near future?" He asked as he stepped away to collect the dishes not in use.

Curses. Icy landed a split second later beside Fox, somehow landing on her belly instead. :smalltongue: Her mane, all tussled from the roll down, fluttered freely in the wind.

Icy herself rolled over to do the same, her ice-blue eyes, formerly so cold, now filled with a warmth that it had not seen for quite some time. She allowed herself a chuckle as Fox stroked her mane, and then leaned forward to nuzzle his cheek affectionately. "My love..." she whispered.

"What?...Ew..ack..!...Oh gross...!" Fox abruptly sprang up to wipe the bird poo out of his mane.

It took Icy some moments to recover her composure. Her muzzle wrinkled at the slightly foul odour that started to waft through her nostrils. "Oh um... hold on. There should be some sort of water source nearby to wash out the worst of it... Let's go, before it dries." She reached out to tug Fox along in search of a stream or maybe a pond.

Icy would hear the gentle sounds of a bubbling creek not too far off to the north west. Twas actually the same creek featured before where Benson believes Silverpine and Gearstride had played in once before. Twas the creek that would if followed, would be seen flowing into a river up north.

Of course he slipped and fell on his face with a splash. "Glurk..."

Fox is fine, for a derp pony. He has a small bruise forming on his face but he'll be fine. He can always just say he walked into a door which surely wouldn't get looks at Icy (:P)
"Sorry sweetie I ruined our romantic outing...walk...thing, in the woods.." Fox said with a sheepish smile.

Down by the lake, where the watermelons do not grow...
Little Spark Chaser, aged 12 years old equivalent, short dark orange mane, yellow-orange coat, gifted with speed, a pegasus who has yet to learn flight. He had a mom, she was alright in his opinion. Knew how to kiss booboos away, make good daisy petal sandwiches with oats. He also had a little sister, Cloud Chaser, wall-eyed little foal, she was okay in his opinion. A little annoying, always wanting to tag along wherever he went, but, he liked playing with her, she was an okay playmate. But, since living here in Bridle Shores he's met and made many new friends even if a lot of them moved away.
There was that Charger, she was fun...kinda more reckless than him but she was cool...but then she moved away. Then there was Smoothie, she was...well the real one...kinda scary, too serious, but she was okay, but then she went away too. Then there was Dawn Blossom...he didn't really know her really well...but she seemed okay too, kinda shy and stuff. Then there was Heartflight, she was...odd, like something wasn't quite fitting there, but they were very smart, even if most of the time most of her smart-babble went over his head. Then there was Pyrite, he was cool and had a boss comic collection. Pyrite was his best friend, and actual guy friend, he liked hanging out with him and watching him try to sell his whacky inventions of various and dubious quality to unsuspecting ponies. Then there was Garion, he didn't really hang out with him, he was kinda weird, not that bright for someone around Sparky's age, but he seemed nice and Cloud liked him, so Sparky tolerated him. Maybe now that Cloud had her own friend, she would stop pestering him to go wherever he went.
Then, there was Beautiful Nightmare, Sparky's first real 'love' but, she went away too, without warning as well. Just disappeared with but a letter. The young colt found himself heart broken and mopey, a lost appetite, holing himself up in his room, turning down Pyrite's offers of hanging out.
At the moment, Sparky sat by the lake water's edge, on the opposite side of the beach, across the lake where ponies didn't go because it didn't have a beach. He had been coming to the beach for the past several days, to mope in the silence of Mt Trotia's lake. He had fibbed to his mom and told her he was going to hang out with Pyrite, but instead he ran and ran til his little legs tuckered out or he reached the opposite side of the lake, whichever came first, usually the latter.
"Siiiigh..." He moped as he ran his hoof, treading in along the water, laying flat on his belly, his other hoof propping up his pony chin. He just laid/sat there, taking in the quiet atmosphere and moped some more.

Down by the lake, where the watermelons do not grow...
Little Spark Chaser, aged 12 years old equivalent, short dark orange mane, yellow-orange coat, gifted with speed, a pegasus who has yet to learn flight. He had a mom, she was alright in his opinion. Knew how to kiss booboos away, make good daisy petal sandwiches with oats. He also had a little sister, Cloud Chaser, wall-eyed little foal, she was okay in his opinion. A little annoying, always wanting to tag along wherever he went, but, he liked playing with her, she was an okay playmate. But, since living here in Bridle Shores he's met and made many new friends even if a lot of them moved away.
There was that Charger, she was fun...kinda more reckless than him but she was cool...but then she moved away. Then there was Smoothie, she was...well the real one...kinda scary, too serious, but she was okay, but then she went away too. Then there was Dawn Blossom...he didn't really know her really well...but she seemed okay too, kinda shy and stuff. Then there was Heartflight, she was...odd, like something wasn't quite fitting there, but they were very smart, even if most of the time most of her smart-babble went over his head. Then there was Pyrite, he was cool and had a boss comic collection. Pyrite was his best friend, and actual guy friend, he liked hanging out with him and watching him try to sell his whacky inventions of various and dubious quality to unsuspecting ponies.

The water ripples wiggled about. They travelled normally until they met a certain point in the water. The ripple bounced back as if there was a rock or plant in the water bouncing it back. But there was nothing.
Clearly something was there. Anypony who looked at would know waves don't crash against nothing. But they did. Some unseen round shape was there being unseen.
But not unheard.
"Ye ur a bad feshpony. Ye caught nae fesh aw these days."
The voice was soft in volume and sweet in tone but the ends of the words were gurbled. Or accurately gargled.
"Guid coz ye cannae hae onie ay mah fesh."

The Lake
"Huh...wah....waaaaAAAH!.." Spark found himself so startled from hearing gurgling words from the water after seeing some weird rippling, that he flailed his fore legs and fell in the water.
Splash! The poor pegasi colt sputtered and paddled in place frantically. He wasn't drowning because he couldn't swim or anything, he was just really startled and derping.

The sound of girlish laughter erupted from the unseen invisible form. It flickered with the splashing water turning translucent after a short while.
It was a pony shaped form. Four legs, a head, and a tail. Not as bigs as an adult and it was while. Round black orbs appeared where its eyes should be as the water and laughter solidified it's color. It had a mane too, sky blue, shiny, flat, hair which fell down it's head wet and curled on the water surface. "Ye ur a terrible fesh pony. Ye scared aw th' fesh awa'. " it gargled.

Then it spat water in the pegasus' face like a water gun. Ah am Lochbed. Gezz mah fesh.

He didn't have enough time to get weirded out by her head pivoting as he found himself get water squirted in his face.
"PPppppfffft waah..ack..what.." Spark protested as he sputtered and made a face. "Stop..that....Lochbed?......." He shook his head face of the water droplets on his eyes. "W-what...are you? Are you some..kind of earth pony?" He looked at her noting the lack of a horn and wings.

The white pony-shaped thing laughed at the soaked pony. "Earth. Ah dornt loch th' earth. Ah am a kelpie. Thes is mah loch an' mah fesh" it said pointing at the water. Each moment Lochbed grew more a more ponylike. Her backs of her eyes shrank down to pupils. Her tail flapped like a tail and not a predatory fin. But her coat was still glossy like a seal.

Spark just continued to move back until his back was pressed against a stone bank, the ground still at least ten inches above him. He would have to make the effort of clambering out if he wanted to 'escape.

The bubbled popped loudly. Not quite firecracker loud but it spooked every bird nearby. This created the sounds of tweets and flapping feathery wings.
The loud boom and flapping was followed by the girlish giggles of the kelpie. Lochbed rolled into the wated laughing and splashing. "Bwehehehe! Ha-haw! Looch at de burds! Ye scured them good."

"Och aye. Thes is mah haem. Thes loch." The kelpie points to a nearby boulder near the water's edge. It was large, gray, and mostly smooth. On its surface were a series of scratches and carvings. They could be mistaken for word but it was illegible and looked more like somepony chewed on it. Serveral of the circles looked like bitemarks and scribbles.

Th kelpie grew a catlike grin. A delusional pony might even imagine whiskrs or cat eyes.
Lochbed touched Spark with her soft slick wet hoof. The second of sensation was icy cold but a nice kind of cold. Like ice cream. "Tag. Spock! Ye it!"
Then she leaped right over the young pegasus and sprinted down the lake's edge. Her hooves moved comically awkward as she did not belong on land. A nonaquatic critter should easily catch her.

But then those words were yelled out as it startled him out of his derpness. Tag? Hahah...He was a Tag Champ...in his mind... No one really liked it when he was it, for reasons. He found himself grinning (after a moment of surprise as Lochbed leaped over him) and paddled to a group of rocks and clumsily clamored over them and onto dry land.
He shook his short mane and stamped at the ground and then reared. "Hahah...Tag?....I'm the Tagger Champ, this is in my domain!" He chuckled with a slight whinny and charged forward after Lochbbed, laughing, swaying his head back and forth.
He would soon catch up to her, but would hold back from tagging her back and make himself look like he was always out of reach. He stifled a breathy giggle.

Hooves to the dirt, Lochbed slammed them down to make a complete stop right in front of Spark. One could see the skidmarks and flying dirt behind her. Mud and dirt an leaves kicked up all over. "Ye be fast. But Ah be tricky." she gargled.
Lochbed just smiled. The kelpie sat there waiting to be tagged.
The second Lochbed back in the lake smiled as well. Technically it was the first Lochbed. A kelpie wouldn't jump out the water to play. A pony knowledgeable about water creatures like a certain small adult pony might know a fact like that.

The cuddling couple had fallen asleep beneath a tree, Fox on his back, snoozing away, a light dribble of drool in the corner of his mouth. Icy draped over his barrel, his right fore hoof holding her protectively, it was adorable.
A leaf from the tree slowly wafted downward and would land ticklishly on Icy's muzzle.
