NOTE: This thread is a continuation of a thread from Ponyville - A Walk in the Moonlight. _____________________________________________ Willow sighed; she had wasted too much moonlight on trying to explain her beliefs to another pony, and now she was going to have to keep this walk much more brief than she had originally anticipated. She had decided that she would rather take a new path through the Everfree Forest tonight, hopefully avoiding more encounters so she could save some time. Lighting a soft green lantern which danced like a candle to help her see the path, she pushed onward, carefully avoiding anything which could be perceived as dangerous. The argument had frustrated her and exhausted her, so she was glad to be moving into the untamed wilderness to finish her night. She would be returning to the town and possibly leaving the area in the morning, when the stars she had cast would fade into the sunlit air. She was already feeling more relaxed, as the moon lit her path and the friendly green light chased the shadows. She sighed with relief. |

(Could you please to stick to third person while roleplaying? It's really confusing and awkward when you only post what your character says without any context. It works in chat roleplays because they're live but it's really confusing here.)
Willow jumped a bit, startled by the other pony's sudden entrance. "Yes," she said, shaking her head. "Just a little frustrated..." She sighed and stopped walking to address the other pony. "Where did you come from?" she asked, curious. She hadn't seen anyone for the past few yards, at a distance or otherwise. She made a note to pay more attention in the future; she must have just missed something.

Dizzy then answered her question. "My name is Dizzy Doodle. I search for lost items and discover secret things. I'm trying to make a new discovery right now"

"Oh?" Willow asked, shrugging. "Seems like a strange place to look for something," she said, looking around. She wasn't incredibly deep into the forest yet, but it was far enough that she couldn't really see Ponyville well. Did the younger pony even know what she's looking for? "What are you trying to discover, anyway?" she said after a moment, voicing her thoughts.
Her lantern danced a little, reminding her that she was supposed to be on a walk. She shrugged; the other pony had piqued her curiosity for the time being. The walk could wait.

"Noone is ever brave enough to come here," said Dizzy "There has to be something undiscovered here. Why are you here?"

"Why not?" Willow said after a moment of consideration. "It's quiet, more or less safe, and empty." she shrugged and kept walking. "Besides," she added thoughtfully, "I kind of enjoy the unfamiliarity of it all." It had been a long time since she had thought about it, but she did tend to enjoy a certain amount of danger in these situations. It helped her relax.

Willow and Dizzy weren't the only ones about. Angel Grace was strolling through Everfree Forest herself, a small smile on her face. She knew the forest well, and she usually went for a walk during the night. She rarely saw anypony out here, even during the daytime, so she was quite surprised to hear a pair of voices up ahead.
Angel paused for a moment, wondering if she should approach, or leave them be. Finally, she decided to just go, say hello, and make sure they weren't lost or in trouble. She chuckled a bit to herself, remembering one time she had met a pair of ponies in the forest like this. She headed towards the sound of the voices. When she turned around the bend, she spotted the two ponies, coming closer. "Oh...hello there. Didn't expect to see anypony here, tonight." she said, bowing her head slightly.

Willow sighed and turned, hearing another pony. "That makes two of us," she said a little hastily. She nodded to the other pony's bow and turned. "Usually I spend these evening walks alone," she said, forcing a smile. It was a little confusing to have so many ponies gathering; hadn't there been less people up in town? Maybe she was missing something.
"I'm Willo'Wisp," she added, deciding to introduce herself. "What are you doing here?" she asked intently, wondering why so many people were gathering this night. She was beginning to suspect it wasn't an accident that others had found her path this time... although she hadn't figured out why.

Angel is a little surprised at this, she hadn't seen this pony around before. It wouldn't surprise her, though, if she missed her. Every time...yeah, that made sense. "Ah! I'm Angel Grace." she said quickly with another head bow. Right, introduce yourself when somepony gave their name. "I, too, spend my evenings out alone, here in the forest." she said with a smile and a glance around.
"I don't see a lot of ponies out at night..." she went on. "Especially in the Everfree forest...it's dangerous here..." she trailed off. Oh, that must sound terrible, to say that, and yet be here. "...if you're not careful!" she added quickly.

"My name is Dizzy Doodle," he said "i heard rumors about six ponies getting poisoned here, that might be why everypony is afraid to come here. I'm trying to make a discovery in this constantly avoided sector of equestria"

Willow smiled slightly, and nodded. "I've only been in this area for a couple weeks," she said after a moment. "Glad to find that I'm not the only pony who finds solace in these evening walks..." she trailed off, still trying to figure out that nagging feeling she had gotten a few moments before. She shook her head, setting the matter aside.
"Sorry if I interrupted your own introspection," she said knowingly to Angel. She'd had to deal with that a lot.
"Ponies getting poisoned?" she said suddenly, turning to the younger pony. "What are you talking about?" She had never heard such thing.

I'm putting a hold on this thread for a bit guys, until I can get a moderator to moderate it. It shouldn't take more than a day. I apologize for the inconvenience.
