[Shuttle]
You've arrived! You've been seen by a coolly efficient (what you hope is a) medical professional - after all they did give you a shot of something. Then you were handed a slew of things you're still trying to process - communication devices, a ring (which is also a key?), a piece of transparent film that's flashing information. And clothing, that was a thoughtful gesture. And then there was the explanation - You've been taken (isn't that a nice way of saying 'kidnapped') by that floating orb of light, you can't leave, but while you're here you get room and board. Is that really a fair trade? Oh, and to top everything off, you have a set of gem like stones set into your chest, that you can't remove.

Before you know it, you've moved with the crowd towards the shuttle and now that you are sitting down, it's now suddenly sinking in.

You are so very far from home.

[NOTE: Please note that the actual arrival process is different from the above scenario - please see the New Arrivals Page for a detailed explanation of the arrival process.]


~ ~


[Cafeteria]
You’re hungry, and though the smells coming from the cafeteria are strange, they are alluring. The grumble in your belly tells you it’s worth chancing.


~ ~


[Multipurpose Common Area]
You’re bored but haven’t quite worked up the courage to venture out into the greater parts of the station. The common area of the residential community seems like it might provide some distractions. And the view out the large windows lining one wall is simply stunning.


~ ~


[The Center Station Central Gardens]
In an environment where spatial expansion is finite, it seems extravagant to house a garden this big. What looks like giant trees at first glance, turn outo be the wire structures that rise up six stores before fanning out actually house various breeds of creeping vines. There are two levels of raised walkways that wind around the vine structures. The ground level also wraps lazily through various plots of vegetation. There is enough variety of plants here to keep anyone interested for hours.


~ ~


[Cemetery Ring]
If you’re in more for a somber atmosphere, the Cemetery Ring is open to everyone.

The first sign posted outside the door reads "We are the lights that shines brightest against the night." The sign below it simply says "All are welcome."

This wide corridor, that traverses the whole very top of the Inner Rings, is dimly lit, but pinpoints of light twinkle all over the wall. The wall juts out in an effort to create more surface area for memorials to those Owmi who have passed on to the next life since the Owmi started their nomadic journey.

The peacefulness of the room is inviting.


~ ~


[Strange Lights - previous plot]
Something strange is happening. You've been here just a few days and before you can even get used to the fact you are an abductee of a glowing ball of light, you now have an aura of lights hanging around your head. The colors change, and if you watch them for a moment (from a mirror - they are hard to get a good look of out of the corner of your eye) you notice they match the colors of the gem like stones fixed to your chest. And if you're really observant, you might catch on that the colors and intensity of the lights change with your mood.

[Pinkie Pie's Fun Day Celebration - previous plot]

Confetti/Glitter Bombs!
Sometimes there’s a pair of eyes watching various residents going in and out of their rooms. Or walking around the habitat station at various places. Wherever your character may be, Pinkie is waiting with a bucket full of confetti or glitter. She forgets which one she takes with her since she prepared so many for this day. How she’s getting around without being noticed is a mystery, but that works just fine for her!


Common Area Mingling!
At the common area, Pinkie has the entire place decked out with balloons, confetti, several piñatas hanging from the ceiling (how did they get up there?!), and an area set up for games. She couldn’t find the actual games like the ones back home, so she had to make them herself. There’s chess, Twister, but instead of boring circles, there’s images of pink icing-covered donuts, chocolate chip cookies, blue cupcakes, and pistachio ice cream cups taped to the floor in four rows of ten, a place to play card games with images of herself in various costumes along with the card suits. There are several cakes with names attached to them on any table she could find. There’s one large cake with no name for everyone and everypony to share! It’s oddly plain, isn’t it? Not suspicious at all!

There’s also snacks like fruit, cheese, crackers, cookies, and drinks to enjoy! No alcohol, though! Sorry! This party is rated G!

And of course the party has piñata. A blindfold and stick are ready for the first challenger! Choose any piñata there! One looks dangerous! They’re filled with candy! Or confetti! Or both!

“Step right up, ladies and gentlecolts! Try your luck and break open a piñata!”

[NOTE: Please note that Pinkie Pie is no longer in game, so she will not be responding to any threads using this option.]

[Planet Exploration: Baj E'oku Prime - current plot]

A new opportunity! No longer do you need to wander the giant space Habitat Station. You now get the opportunity to explore a section of the planet Baj E'oku Prime. It's small, tidal locked planet. The area you can explore is dusty and red with surprising wild life. There are canyons and highlands, rivers and caves to explore. (See link for greater details.) What adventures or trouble will you find?

Rainbow Dash | My Little Pony: FIM | Shuttle

[personal profile] dashingrainbow 2016-03-21 01:35 am (UTC)(link)
Rainbow Dash was sitting in one of the seats of the shuttle, sulking like crazy and not paying any mind to those around her. She wasn’t built like a typical pony. She was a tad shorter and far slimmer. Being a Pegasus was another difference. Fastest flier in Equestria, though she was grounded right now due to her sleepiness. At lest her beloved cutie mark was still there. Having been in a human world before, Dash was used to MOST of the things here. She wasn’t going to bite anyone’s head off for staring or speaking to her, but she didn’t look like the most approachable creature in the world right then either. On the other hand her light blue hair and rainbow mane and tail might offset the sour look.

However she looked though, to say Dash wasn’t happy would be the understatement of the century. Sure, she had been living with humans and what not for a while now, but THIS?! First they drag her into space, implant horrible girly gems into her chest that she can’t take out and THEN they expect her to wear jewelry!?

“They are SO lucky my energy is zapped.” She yawned, talking to herself for the moment. She held up her hooves and looked over her new accessories. She could imagine that Rarity would have a world or two about them. The ring was on her right hoof still, but once she had enough rest Dash had a plan to loose it fast. The communication device on her left arm wasn’t SO bad. “These things better not slow me down in the air.”

O.M.G. Mable can't say she's surprised exactly considering all the strange creatures her and her brother have encountered but nothing at this point.

"Unicorn." Her eyes widen and glimmer with delight and forgets for the moment that she doesn't have her cute sweaters.

She silently walks over behind the unicorn and whispers with star-lite eyes, "Can I pet your mane?"
dashingrainbow: (WTF!?)

[personal profile] dashingrainbow 2016-03-21 01:55 am (UTC)(link)
Dash shuddered for some reason. Was someone talking about her? Whatever. It was fine. Dash just blew at her bangs and sulked some more.

"WOW!" Dash jumped out of her chair when she heard the girls voice. "Hey! Don't sneak up on anypony like that!" She was more embraced that someone was able to get the slip on her like that than angry at the question. Dash sighed and shook her her wings out before looking the girl over. She looked like a normal annoying human girl to Dash. Why do they ALWAYS sparkle like that at her? "How about giving me your name first before asking something like that?"
rainbowsweater: (Silly)

[personal profile] rainbowsweater 2016-03-21 02:00 am (UTC)(link)
Mable gives a quirky chuckle, "Sorry. My name's Mable. Is your name Sparkle?"

Afterwards a creepy whisper, "You're so beautiful. Just like in my dreams."
dashingrainbow: (what IS that?!)

[personal profile] dashingrainbow 2016-03-21 02:11 am (UTC)(link)
"No, It's Dash. Rainbow Dash." Oh Celestia, this was going to be a special kind of human for sure. Dash wasn't mad, she was just really tired and really not in the mood for TOO much crazy at the moment.

"Uh, right." The whisper had Dash backing up a little. "It's not at all creepy that you whispered that or anything."
rainbowsweater: (Silly)

[personal profile] rainbowsweater 2016-03-21 02:22 am (UTC)(link)
"Pffftt. Of course it is." As she motions with her one hand and a slight tongue sticking out of her mouth for a moment.

"Sorry." Mable places a hand near her mouth that has a wide grin behind it. Before turning a little more serious and stands her ground as to not scare Rainbow Dash further.

"You're just the best thing that has happened since I found myself here. Mmmm... You have the same weirdo gems on you too. I wish my brother was here. He's good with figuring out this magic junk."

As she proceeds to flap the loose sleeves in her rag shirt with glee.

dashingrainbow: (that is MY flank!)

[personal profile] dashingrainbow 2016-03-22 01:42 am (UTC)(link)
"Haha....yeah... well, i guess it's okay." Dash was still being stand off ish for the moment though. These weird types could pull things out of thin air! She had clearly found a human Pinkie Pie here. At lest she was okay for now.

Dash sat back down in a chair to hear the girl out. That was until she mentioned the gems and Dash instantly bristled and crossed her arms to over them up. "Magic is for unicorns." Dash blew at her bang before looking back at the girl.

"Look, it's cool and all that you like how I look, but lets get one thing clear here, okay? I'm an athlete. A pony made for speed. Got it?" She paused for a moment before breathing. "Sorry your not with your brother though."

Bitty Anakin for the win

[personal profile] ignite_the_stars 2016-03-22 12:49 am (UTC)(link)
Anakin slumped into a seat next to the pony. He'd been back at the Temple to check out the new arrivals to see if anyone from his world had shown up. No such luck.

He looked over as the pony spoke. He was used to flying non-humanoids sentient, and she wasn't Toydarian, which worked well in her favor, even if she didn't know it.

"The confined space of the station will slow you before any air resistance factors in," he said it in commiseration. He missed flying, too.

"I'm Anakin."
dashingrainbow: (well i'm not sure)

AWWW~! 8D

[personal profile] dashingrainbow 2016-03-22 02:00 am (UTC)(link)
Dash grinned. Good, at lest there was one human here that could act normally around her. "I'm Rainbow Dash, best flyer in Equestria. Nice to meet you, Anakin." He was a younger human, but at lest he understood flying. He could be a good human to make friends with.

"Have to ask since I'm part of a team that controls the weather back home, does this place make any weather patterns? Can't see then leaving the air stagnant. Maybe just an airflow pattern? There has to be some place on this ship I can fly around. The talk was so boring I barley listened." Sadly the only time Dash really paid any attention was when she was reading or in the air, and she hadn't been being either during those talks.

ignite_the_stars: (are you sure about that)

Re: AWWW~! 8D

[personal profile] ignite_the_stars 2016-03-22 11:25 pm (UTC)(link)
Anakin had to eye Rainbow Dash a moment. "Do... you know what a station is?"
dashingrainbow: (crazy story bro)

[personal profile] dashingrainbow 2016-03-22 11:43 pm (UTC)(link)
Dash just sighed. "Hey, you clearly don't think a station is what I do, so just spill the beans, kay kid?" Honestly, how could she know everything about everything? "How inclosed is this place?" Dash was getting worried. She wouldn't last long without a good stretch of her wings!
ignite_the_stars: (are you sure about that)

[personal profile] ignite_the_stars 2016-03-24 01:50 am (UTC)(link)
"We're in outer space," he said. "It's a big station. But it's completely enclosed. Otherwise we would all die."
