//------------------------------// // Epilogue~ The Sweetness of The Pie // Story: Those Rose Eyes // by EpicGuy //------------------------------// Rainbow Dash and Auras- an Explanation By Twilight Orion Sparkle An aura is a smoke-like, misty entity that flows around a being (an object, such as a cupcake, or an area can have an aura as well, but they vary slightly) in either a single or multiple colors. Each of these colors means a different personality or belief is present on the pony, so in a way your thoughts are always in the air for others to know! A quaint discovery, if I say so myself. I shall now discuss the meanings of the aura colors when seeing a pony or object (backgrounds will be explained below). Purple means that the pony is thinking spiritual thoughts, but is a weak point in the overall aura and only appears in clouds and flames occasionally. Blue means the pony is at great ease, or very relaxed and laid back. Electric blue, a subculture of the normal version of blue, can easily override any other colors if present. Turquoise indicates a dynamic quality of being, and a good organizer. Most workers adore any boss with a turquoise aura; it shows they want to influence others and listen to any ideas with an open mind. Anypony with a green aura is a natural healer, and when near somepony with a green aura you automatically feel rested and relaxed. Yellow auras are a sign of great joy, freedom, non-attachment. You should only take spiritual lessons from somepony with a yellow halo of sorts over their head. Orange auras mean the pony is uplifting and absorbing; a sign of power. Some orange auras indicate a desire to control others. Red means materialistic thoughts, mostly about physical appearance. Lastly, pink indicates love- not just a simple thought as a particularly handsome stallion passes by, a true feeling, true love. It’s quite rare, and not many can achieve it completely. Along with purple (purple and red auras combine to make the pink one), it is one of the weakest colors an aura can carry. A setting usually has colors similar to those above, some not included. They also are not as strong as one might see on a pony, only faint and maybe even translucent. At the corners of walls (or the corners of your vision, if outside), there is a slight shift of colors, like radio static, only visible. How does this relate to Rainbow Dash the pegasus? Nopony knows the answer, if it be genetics or simply luck. I have observed her eyes, and using a book on irises, found nothing out of the ordinary. She realized this talent at a very young age, about three weeks old. Rainbow practiced this art until she had it perfected and she could see it as clearly as she could see day and just as easily. But during one practice session, she found a peculiar dark side to this talent- if looking close enough, she could not look away. In conclusion, auras are amazing entities- I even got to experience seeing one- and are simply beautiful. Although Rainbow Dash is the only pony capable of seeing them, they are indeed very important to our lifestyle. I hope this humble report entertained you, and hope to hear feedback on it. Your Faithful Student, Twilight Sparkle Twilight read over her work and smiled, folding it up neatly and placing it by her side for when Spike woke up. Morning light warmed her face and poured itself into the room. It was the first nice day since the storm, which seemed like such a long time back. She was happy to see ponies now coming out of their homes to enjoy the sunlight, some heading for the park and some taking short excursions to Appleoosa and Canterlot. She considered going down to Sweet Apple Acres, where Pinkie Pie was hosting a party just because. She said that she would be bringing Zap Apple pie along with her, something Twilight was very excited about. Pinkie also mentioned that she would bring something special for Rainbow Dash, who didn’t fancy the pie- a special cupcake she called a PinkieCake. Rainbow did backflips when she heard that. Twilight Sparkle grabbed her satchel adorned with her cutie mark, and put inside some fashion books Rarity wished to borrow, along with one on apples and apple accessories for Applebloom (who was doing her Science Project on apples, of course). With the satchel firmly attached to her back the unicorn wrote a short note to Spike, placed it by the scroll, and left for the party.
