Banshee glanced to his dearest friend, then around at all the other ponies gathered. "So, what sort of friends are we looking for?" Okay that was a weird question. He blinked at the thought the moment the words left him. "Well...maybe I should rephrase that. What type of ponies do you think we'll meet here?"That...sounded sort of better. He shrugged as he looked around at all the different ponies. There was a wide range. Some were pretty, others were stunning. Well. None really got his full attention, it'd take a dark beauty. Like Arachnos. To get his attention. He mentally sighed. Okay no more thinking about your best friend now. He nudged the bigger male. "Why don't you go say Hi to someone? I'll be right beside you."Word Count :: 129

"It must have been a sturdy branch; those owls are very big, even as fledglings," commented Lalarit.
"The birds you see most are raptors, but there are also brush parrots in the lushest shades of green," he explained a little wistfully.WC 41 TWC 1583

"We just arrived and got comfy. No reason to hog up the couches." She slid closer to her sister in hopes of not making her uncomfortable and moved Nova into her lap. "My name is Soliel and this is Neoma, what's your name?" She thought for a bit. "It was a decent sized tree. The bird was about a foot, little over a foot tall." Indicating the size with her hooves. "Nice, you get more sparrows, wrens, and doves in Everville. Though, I have spotted a hawk from time to time... and vultures. Bush Parrots sound pretty interesting, what are they like?"

tab Another pony approached, great. Lost Woods shifted foot to foot, head tilting slightly. Why was he attracting so much attention? Was this normal?
tab "I... don't know what this place even is."
tab She spotted a small green pixie by themselves, watching the winged pony curiously. They looked uncomfortable. Reasonably so, if they were a shyer sort. Sakura turned around, grabbing punch before approach the pixie slowly.
tab "Are you okay? Thirsty?" She extended the drink as an offering, smiling faintly.
tab "This doesn't look like it was your idea. Friend drag you?"
tab Ishmael jolted as someone spoke, eyes flicking to eyeball the newcomer. He swished his drink quietly as he watched her, his movements slowing with each second as his eyes widened at her. The hell was she going on about? For a moment his nose wrinkled, confusion and irritation evident until he glanced around the room, face softening. No, he rather be talking to this weird pony than dealing with this room, that was for sure.
tab "No, it's not my taste." He answered lowly, unable to stop himself from blurting; "Is that how you always speak?"
tab She had spotted drinks across the room, grinning at Swizzle.
tab "I'll mingle. There's a few drinks with my name on them."

 The ghoulie stepped forward and settled easily onto the cushions near them. He made sure to keep enough space between them as to not make them uncomfortable. Scotch barely contained the snort aimed more at himself than anything. Their names were, for lack of better words, elegant in their simplicity while his… Well, his seemed to bring a smile to other's faces so he couldn't complain about it too much. “It's a pleasure to meet you Soliel, Neoma. My name's Butterscotch Bling, but please just call me Scotch. Save a little breath,” he chuckled lightly. Word Count: 95  For a moment, Dancer feared she had inadvertently made this aquatic's night worse. A chill spread over her chest yet she smiled all the same. Though when he seemed to soften the tiniest bit, her shoulders lost some of the tension. With a jovial laugh, she nodded. “Doth I confound thee? Do not fret, for my family may share in thy thoughts.” The smile that stretched her lips glittered in her bright gaze, amusement crinkling the corners of her eyes. Another small laugh and she pointed toward the seat opposite him. “Wouldst thou object to my company?” Word Count: 97 Total WC: 1,363

"Well..." said Lalarit, trying to answer her question. It was difficult. "A brush parrot eats seeds, grass seeds mostly. They're often a little pudgy-looking, round bellies and round headed, with long tails so they are agile while they forage through the scrubland. They sometimes have bright colours; the ones I was thinking about are green and a little red but there are other kinds which are white or black with yellow, black with red, some are pink, some are green all over if they're female, red with green wings if they're male, some are yellow and blue and purple and green all over. Like they rolled on a paint palette!' He laughed.WC 112 TWC 1695

Previous Word Count: 855 "Looks can be deceiving, y'know," he replied with amusement in his voice at the other pony's observations on his looks "and weird is more than skin deep." He amused himself terribly, and relished the thought of being weird, but also liking the fact that he totally just got checked out!
Idris grinned widely at Sunny's response. "That's the best answer anypony could have given, Sunny." He took another sip of his drink before leaning over and smirking. "Could always ditch the fun sucker..." and he left that thought hanging in the air for the other to debate.WC: 97 Tullio felt terrible when he startled her so badly, offering "I'm sorry"s to her a few different times along with a nervous and awkward laugh. And when she smiled so brightly up at him, he felt his heart aflutter.
Her sweet voice was like a song in his ears, even though it was talk about taking care of her tattoo. "You are, actually. A lot of ponies will just do whatever after. Uhm, hey," he started as his tail swayed behind himself some "wanna get food then go sit together? Talk a bit?" Tullio gave another smile, showing that he was more at ease. WC: 104 "Wait... You're name is what now?" Skel questioned the aquatic sitting across from him. "Wow. That's super different. Different is awesome! Huh... I kinda wish that was my name now...." and he drifted off into thought for a few seconds before coming back around to the conversation.
"Oh thanks! It's naturally awesome," he beamed proudly at Queeqeg. "Yours is pretty rockin', too, mah duder! So, hummm," the pegasus pondered for a moment, "Do you know where there's more junk food? It's one of the few reasons i even came here. Heh"WC: 91 Subtotal: 292 Total Word Count: 1147

Soliel giggles. "Nice to meet you, Scotch." She watched the sparkles dance in his hair. "So, what brought a handsome pony like yourself here?" "oooh!" she squeaked. "They sound like the painted buntings we get! so cute and colorful little BORBS!" she was so excited by the thought of cute chubby birds that she clapped her hooves together. "Painted Buntings and small birds that are super colorful. kind've a medium blue head, red orange breast and belly and bright yellow green back and wings!"

"Those sound very beautiful," said Lalarit. He was trying not to laugh in case it offended Aviary, but her enthusiasm made him happy. "Are those birds found in Drizzle Town or in Everville?"WC 33 TWC 1728

The matching ghouliecorn just nodded, a bit of color on her face; still a little embarrassed for reacting to her sister in such a way. ”It was just a simple question, I overreacted. I guess I’m still a little nervous about so many others around.” She replied quietly. Her tail swished softly, though seemed to ‘stare’ off at the refreshment table at Stellar trying… and failing… to tug the tablecloth off in attempts to get the food on top; the tail shaking its head. Her front hooves fiddle with one another while her sister looks around, still trying to calm her nerves. Hearing her sister seemingly greeting someone catches her attention, first looking to her twin before glancing around to see who exactly she was speaking to. Spotting the other ghoulie, she didn’t feel as worried, but she was still feeling a little shy about meeting him… though it didn’t seem like she had much of a choice as Soliel invites him over… and in such an embarrassing way. She seems to shrink and press more into her sister the closer he got, but made no sign that he wasn’t invited; just remaining silent when Scotch takes a seat. Neoma was appreciative of her twin when she scooted closer, giving her a smile before returning her attention back to Scotch and giving him a nod in greeting when she was introduced. ”H-Hello. I-It’s nice to meet you.”Word count: 237 Arachnos took the time to look around at the party as well, but remaining close to his friend while he glances over the other ponies seemingly enjoying the festivities. At the first question, the large ghoulie tilted his head in slight confusion for a moment, only to give a shrug when Banshee finally clarified. ”I’m not sure. Looks like there are quite a few ponies here.”Those red eyes look over a few individuals around the room the two were currently in. There were quite a few interesting ponies, but each time, he would just tell himself that they wouldn’t be interested in meeting him. Either that, or they would run off screaming from his appearance. His ears flatten slightly at the thought, frowning a little as he takes a few nervous steps back. He nearly jumps when he feels the nudge to his side, quickly bringing his attention back to his friend; shocked expression on his face. ”I-I don’t know. I don’t think that would be a good idea.”Word count: 170 Total word count: 1,254

"They live in Everville. You'd think such a colorful bird would want to live in a lush forest, maybe somewhere tropical? but no." She smiles. " You said your favorite birds were nocturnal?"

"Some of the prettiest birds I know life in odd places," said Lalarit. "Like rosellas of all kinds, some live in cities. I would rather live in the jungle."
"I like owls and nocturnal kingfishers the best," he replied. "They usually live for a long time and you can really get to know them. Owls are so curious. I once had a sooty owl watch me when there was an oncoming storm. He was confused because he had found shelter but I was too busy watching him to find my own!" he laughed.WC 93 TWC 1821

"I am not usually places with a lot of rain," said Lalarit. "I see mostly inland kingfishers. I know the water ones are much brighter and more appealing than the nocturnal ones, but they have such personality! I think I like that they aren't afraid of me."
Lalarit paused before he answered. "If I'm still in town when you go, I'd like to. I don't go looking specifically for birds, usually. I just explore places and see what there is. We could as easily lizard watch and I would enjoy it," he joked.WC 93 TWC 1914

"Well then... we will also have to plan a trip to Spring Rain for birding as well!" she declared with a big smile. "When I learn to fly, it'll be easy peasy to meet up and hang out!"
