Magnet Powder and Myths: An invite-only MLP roleplay

"Nobody's really quite sure" Snow shrugged "He's a stallion. But he looks frozen and a bit...chipped. They say he guides travellers back to safety. But he also starts snowstorms if followed" he laughed "Alright sound really stupid when I tell it. But seriously it's weird. Some think he's a ghost, or a corpse. Some think he's a spirit" he thought of the stallion with his frosted eyes and complete silence "I think he gets lonely out there. Our maybe he likes it"

Coal Cloud

With Snow / Out And About / Content

Coal’s whole body actually shook and his wings ruffled a bit as he swallowed hard on the words. “G-host?” He gulped, “C-corpse?” He felt another shiver run down his spine. Anything supernatural related chilled the poor Pegasus to the bone. “So… you’ve seen this frozen pony guy, then? I couldn’t handle that.” Coal shook his head, biting down on his bottom lip nervously. He wanted to know more about it, but at the same time was afraid he’d have nightmares about some abominable snowpony with some uncontrollable bloodlust.

Snow nodded enthusiastically, happy to tell the tale "Yeah. I saw him. My lead dog, Kaba, when he was a pup he escaped his kennel and ran off. Right in the middle of this huge snowstorm. Something spooked him I guess. Anyway I knew there was no way he would live till the storm was over so I went out to find him" he shook his head like he was trying to shake away the memory "It was awful. So cold. I couldn't see for the snow, couldn't move it was so deep. Kaba hadn't got far but when I found him he was barely alive and I had no idea where I was, and I suddenly realised that was it" he broke into a smile again, ruffling his feathers

"Then I saw him. He was walking across to me, like the snow wasn't even there. He stopped a few metres away and sat, and suddenly I wasn't cold anymore. He stayed the entire night and at morning he walked away, back into the snow. The storm died down a few minutes after and I was only a few minutes from home" he laughed "I was scared out my wits though". A pony barged past Snow and he sidestepped awkwardly, wings flicking out to steady the bag.

Coal Cloud

With Snow / Out And About / Spooked

Coal listened intently, eyes round and wide up at the large stallion beside him while he told his tale, occasionally his ears went back and his wings rustled uncomfortably behind him. “He jus’ sat thur and watched ya then? I dunno how’d I be able to handle that, did he have cold… Dead eyes? I think I woulda ran off and got lost in the storm.” He looked forward again, nodding absently as he thought about how he’d act in such a situation. So consumed with the thought, Snow’s sidestep spooked Coal enough to cause the little Pegasus to jump slightly and he was about to rear up on Snow about it when he saw the pony who’d pushed past them trotting on ahead casually.
“Oi! There’s a whole friggen road ya’know! Don’t gotta walk on top’a other ponies!”

[Cosmic~Wallaby]

Snow opened his mouth to reply as Coal shouted. He froze on the spot No not now he begged. His stomach churned and his mouth went dry. His forced himself to stay still, but his wings trembled so he closed them as much as he could without dropping the bag and tried to breathe slowly "I-It's fine. Didn't...didn't see me" he forced out, trying to keep his voice as normal as he could. Now walk he thought to himself. He took a few steps forward, glad to see his legs weren't trembling. He opened his mouth to answer Coal but didn't trust his voice entirely despite avoiding full panic, so simply kept walking in silence.

Coal Cloud

With Snow / Out And About / Irritated

Coal watched the rude pony trot away like he hadn’t heard anything, but Coal knew he had had to. Turning his head he looked too Snow, ready to argue his reasoning before noticing something was a little off. Even though it was against his nature, Coal decided it would be best if he just let it drop. “I think he saw ya just fine, you’re kinda hard ta miss.” He grumbled, still needing to have the last word in the situation.
Coal’s ears dropped back and he lowered his head, continuing forward with an irritated look in which he shot at everypony who happened to cross his line of site. "Sorry..." He mumbled after a while, looking bashfully to the side as he moved at Snow's side.

[Cosmic~Wallaby]

Snow didn't reply for a few seconds, tugging at his scarf so it pulled tight around his neck "Just don't like conflict" he muttered, almost inaudible. He coughed, loosening the scarf a little but still keeping it fairly close to his neck "Hey" he said, a small smile appearing "What do you mean I'm hard to miss? You calling me fat? Eh Coal?" he grinned, putting his head up in mock offence. Playing the fool.

Trotting about, slowly taking a road back home, Two trotted past a pair of stallions who appeared to be having a friendly talk.
Well, don't they look almost opposite of each other? I suppose, even in friendship, opposites attract.

Stopping dead in her tracks, she pondered that phrase for a moment.
Opposites attract. Opposites attract. Opposites attract!
"Of course!" she gave a small shout, forgetting she was in public.
Noticing a few glances cast, she quieted herself to a pitch between a loud whisper and a normal tone.
"I need to take into account attraction! Nopony knows a personality when they first see somepony, but they can still have attraction!"
Putting her hoof on her chin as though stroking an invisible beard, she thought for another moment.
"But what ingredient can aid attraction?"

[Rainbow Dash]

Well if they're not going to give me anything to do- ... what if it's finally happened? What if they finally gave my job to some pegasus?! No, no no no, I've never been late, ever! Except that one time when I was 23 seco- Lost inside his own head, at the sound of Two's loud stroke of genius Gold Rush jumped and tripped onto his own face.

Not even caring about his modesty, his eyes darted around for the source. He slowly picked himself up and shook his head.

Coal Cloud

With Snow / Out And About / Flustered

Coal didn’t comment on it any further, understanding in a way how it was. Of course the curiosity was ebbing at the back of his head, but he didn’t like it when strangers stuck their snouts in his business.
He lifted his head and looked up at Snow, then quickly shook, “N-no! I mean you ain’t fat but yur pretty big even for a stallion. And furry.” Coal blushed and pulled his hat lower on his head bashfully. “I didn’t mean it in a bad way…”
