What's the highest point in ponyville? 

I want to watch the sunset.

[Roxas pauses, looking like he might say something more, but then decides against it and closes the feed.]

Comments

[seasaltkeys]

I guess I should ask.

I haven't really been good at the whole pony magic stuff. I'd rather use my combat magic.

[Burn, freeze, electrocute, cure, easy enough to remember.]

[guerriera]

[ There's a hint of faint disapproval. ]

All the more reason to work on it when you have the chance. You never know when a situation might require you need it.

I'm sure one of the Princesses could help. Or Rarity.

[seasaltkeys]

[He nods, although a little reluctantly. He's old enough to take care of himself.]

I guess I can ask.

[guerriera]

Can't hurt. In fact, could hurt you more if you don't ask and get in trouble.

If you have other magic experience, they can probably tell you how to apply it better as a pony.

[ Probably. ]

[seasaltkeys]

Probably. It's the telekinesis stuff I don't get.

Fireballs are so much easier.

[If it isn't already obviously, Roxas and strategy do not get along.]

[guerriera]

Not one for abilities that require concentration, are you.

[She sounds faintly amused rather than accusing - it's the closest to humour she's managed in over a week.]

[seasaltkeys]

[Another shrug.]

I can do it. It's just easier to whack stuff.

[It's particularly effective against computers.]

[guerriera]

[ Thank goodness FILSS has gone back to sleep then. ]

Yeah. Sure is. But that's not always the best way to deal with things.

[ Says the woman who still drives herself to the edge of exhaustion in her efforts to maintain fighting trim (and control her temper). ]

[seasaltkeys]

I know, I know.

Sometime it just feels like there's too much to think about.

[stupid dreams.]

[guerriera]

[ She can't disagree there, even if (currently) the dreams have been on the mild side for her so far. ]

And we've plenty of time for thinking, too.

Though just thinking alone doesn't help us get to the source of this problem.

[ Being trapped in the dreaming, that is. ]

[seasaltkeys]

Too much.

I'm trying to look for stuff in ponyville. There's just a lot since the keyhole can be anywhere.

[guerriera]

Given the pattern of past events, if that's going to appear, it won't be until those Elements are found. No point wasting time looking for anything else right now.

[seasaltkeys]

You never know though. It's something to do.

[guerriera]

..Point.

[ Even if the 'something' ends up a futile endeavour. ]

Any particular reason for the interest in sunsets in Ponyville? Twilight Town's got one permanently if that's what you're looking for.

[seasaltkeys]

I want to see the sun actually set.

Just, looking for variety I guess.

[He's seen the Twilight Town one hundreds of times.]

[guerriera]

Hmf.

We don't get much variety around here, do we.

[Present world escapades aside.]

[seasaltkeys]

Not a whole lot. And it's nice to see the sun actually set.

There's more red in the sky sometimes.

[guerriera]

Having a world without a static sky does make for a change. [nice or otherwise] Though the night's been lasting longer lately.

Good luck finding your way up to a place with a good view. ..Roxas, right?

[seasaltkeys]

Yeah, that part's weird.

That's me.
