Somepony everypony should know [Action | Open]

[elementofloyalty]

[The usual morning routine is interrupted by a pony with way too much energy. No one who knows her would believe Rainbow Dash is up on time and with energy, but there she is, zooming around Garden excitedly with a rainbow trail left in her wake. She seems intent on exploring everywhere, peering into all the various rooms and areas; in fact, the only place you WON'T find her is in the elevator. Because seriously she can just fly to the second floor.]

[You may be fortunate enough to find a pony in your class, if you have one with her! She's sitting eagerly at her desk for the academic ones, and... for the sciencey ones like Engineering and Physics, looking just a little bit nervous under her smile. She spends a LOT of time checking her books and terminal, and looking worried when she thinks no one is looking.]

[During the free time after classes, Rainbow takes to the Quad to play with her pet, Tank -- who is distinctive not just for being a turtle, but a turtle with a magic-powered helicopter on his shell, so he can fly around with her.]

[OOC: As usual, just say where you're meeting her!]

[No, no he isn't. And she should not be able to generate enough lift to do that. And if she could, she should probably have dropped dead of starvation by now. And... oh, whatever.] You don't think that's weird at all? Next you're gonna tell me you're also a... I don't know, a magician or something.

[elementofloyalty]

[Can't stop her! She can keep this up alllll day!]

Pff, no! Unicorns do magic. Pegasi fly.

[rewritethis]

Okay, if you say so. [Definitely ruled out chimera, then. A chimera would make more freakin' sense than a flying pony mercenary.]

Gotta wonder what the people in charge were thinking... But I guess they're the same people who came up with stupid classes like this, so they can't have been thinking anything.

[elementofloyalty]

What do you mean, 'what were they thinking'?! I've got as much right to take this class as anyone!

[rewritethis]

Hey, I never said you didn't! I just don't understand why a military academy would want a flying pony when it already has plenty of dogs. Unless they're planning to assassinate gravity.

[elementofloyalty]

I haven't seen any dogs. They're usually more interested in gems and shiny things anyway.

[rewritethis]

No, I meant... Well, maybe you could read up on metaphors, since you're so set on taking classes anyway. And aren't shiny objects more of a bird thing?

[elementofloyalty]

Some birds, yeah, but... the Diamond Dogs really liked gems. They even kidnapped Rarity so she could find more for them!

[rewritethis]

[...Is she talking in metaphors now?] Kidnapping? That's pretty smart for a dog.

[elementofloyalty]

THEY sure didn't think so after Rarity got through with 'em!

[rewritethis]

Sounds... harsh, just for a bunch of polished rocks. [Magical, flying, talking ponies, and also animal abusers? Oh man, Ed misses his nice, normal world where people can violate the conservation of energy on a whim by channelling the souls of dead people in another dimension.]

[elementofloyalty]

They kidnapped her and tried to kidnap me and all my friends as work ponies. They got what they deserved! [Which was, listening to Rarity whine. Pretty gruesome fate.]

But they learned their lesson!
