//------------------------------// // Chosen the Gathering 4 // Story: Equestrian Fanfiction // by Lise //------------------------------// @InItForTheShipping: I bet you anything that they are all asleep by now. That or they've gone home. Well, except Dark, who's probably still going on and on about her theories. That mare needs to get yayed. LightSparkle It's not like she'd listen to me. I blame her having an overly sheltered life. Still, there's time for her to break out of her shell. Isn't that right, @DarkSparkle? :) InItForTheShipping @InItForTheShipping, @LightSparkle: Dark is sleeping. First one to doze off even bore the reading was over. Also, things got a bit too real. AwesomePony got really drunk and started crying, going on and on about how she'll always be a virgin. Max and Lyra are with her now trying to get her to be a bit let miserably, I guess. Meanwhile AJ and Rarity decided to do an intervention of sorts and got most of the class to go home. (So much for discussing things :/) To be honest, I'm pretty bummed out too. RRBB @RRBB: at least you have something cute and huggly sleeping on you right now. Oh and there's Pixel as well. :P As about AP, though. Feather's also with her, though after so much cider not sure anyone could do a thing. Until she sobers up, at least. That said the last chapter was pretty cool. Pretty much in line with what everyone suspected: Molly and Bellucio find the old Chosen who tells them about the Poseidon Key (which is a thing that every active Chosen has to be able to keep in touch with Poseidon). Megan helps them go into the Poseidon reality, where Bellucio finds his own key, after which they go to this abandoned island fortress and see five other Chosen who just go "so you're finally here". And then... cliffhanger! @Luna: tell whoever wrote that they are a tease! PaintDrop @PaintDrop: I expect pictures! :) And yeah, the story was pretty good. A bit different from what I expected, but still very much MC. And it's true that the amount of boys is clearly more than in MC (even the original series). Also, calling it that we'll have a Molly love triangle at some point. RRBB Eh? AwesomePony broke down in tears? Ouch. I better have a word with her. I'll see if I can convince Dark to let her visit. There are more than enough guys here who'd run over each other to be her bf. Maybe Dark should visit too. She never stays much. LightSparkle On the whole I'd say it was a good reading. The cider didn't help, but most were half asleep by then anyway. Seriously, starting a reading at ten isn't a good idea, not when it takes about three hours per chapter. I won't be surprised if most have to reread the last one so it makes sense. And don't worry about AwesomePony. I'll have a word with her... and Applejack. TheRealLuna I never suspected AwesomePony was the hidden romantic. To think of all the jokes we made during training. :/ Guess I know now. @CEOWitch, were you aware of this? If so you could have told me! I feel like a jerk now! Fleetfoot @Fleetfoot: It'll be fine. Best thing is to give her some space. 2ndHalf Well, she shouldn't have hit on Jade. Not that I blame her. If he was a griffin I'd probably act in the same way. She's asleep now, so... err... some help getting her home? I'm a good flyer but not that good. Feather @Feather: Sure thing. 2ndHalf @Feather: I promised to go cloud swimming with BlueEyes. Sorry :( DaBoss I'll lend a wing. PrinceEric is asleep anyway, so I can leave him in the castle till morning. @DaBoss: you still going cloud swimming? You're brave, mare. Oh, and find time to get your new thundercloud license. Spitfire has been on my case for months now. @2ndHalf, that goes for you too! Fleetfoot Yes, ma'am! 2ndHalf @Fleetfoot: I've been meaning to ask for a while now. How come you're single? I mean you're successful, rich, athletic, and a Wonderbolt. You're the image behind Euryala for stars' sake! If anyone could take her first pick that's you! I don't want to be weird, it's just that you're you. RRBB @RRBB: kid, two words: dedicated career. Do you have any idea how many Wonderbolts are in a serious relationship? Four! (Trainees don't count, @2ndHalf.) With the exception of Spitfire none of the elite ones even have time to consider it. For the most part that's what happens when somepony retires. Stallions are different, though. Most are happily married, some with foals. @CEOWitch is just a ninny. Feather @Feather: Hey, I dated him for a while. But yeah, Wonderbolts don't have it easy. Usually they marry someone from the military—at least then everypony knows what to expect. Anyway, I'll be going. Have fun, all or goodnight :) DaBoss I knew it was a mistake to come to this event. Three A.M. and I have work in the morning. At least LyraHands had fun. Next time we're during this during the day! Bob Next time I'm so there! @InItForTheShipping: can you cover for me again? I know it was a bit of awkward last time (much appreciate it, though). And don't hesitate to visit anytime. I think Simile might stop by again next month. LightSparkle @LightSparkle: I see how it is! TrueSparkle @TrueSparkle: I thought you were asleep. Why silent until now? LightSparkle If you have to know, somepony (no names) decided it would be a great idea to play "a few rounds of O&O" while the reading was going on. Right now Spike and MightyDragon are arguing about equipment, and CodeFilly is drooling asleep on Mighty's shoulder. I was forced to join in... until Dark fell asleep when I had to take over control of the audio spell. TrueSparkle I feel you. I best get to sleep as well. Have more studying to do tomorrow. Night, Nightlings. LightSparkle Night. I'll be going home. See you tomorrow. PaintDrop Take care, everyone. InItForTheShipping
