10 - video/action; (post-event)

[Dash's day starts out just like any other: waking up bright and early, dashing out above the village at hundreds of miles per hour and leaving rainbow streaks in the sky, all while occasionally twirling clouds around, moving them low to the ground just for fun, and practicing skateboarding just for kicks. ...No pun intended.

But around mid afternoon, she swoops down over the farmland only to find an alarming sight: no sign of Applejack. No matter where she looks, that hard working farm pony's nowhere to be seen, and the same goes for her belongings, for that matter.

Dash's heart sinks. She makes a retreat up into the clouds, which is when she finally addresses the journal. For once, this big-eyed, rainbow pony lacks her confident air.]


...Hey, so I don't know how many of you guys know her, but it looks like Applejack's gone back to Equestria, which means all those apples she's been growing have kinda been left unattended. Not to mention the animals and other crops. So, uh. If any of you other farmers could check into that, that'd be totally appreciated. You guys'd probably be way more experienced than me!

[...heh. Heh.

Man, even her phony laughter sounds depressing.]


Guess Luceti's pony population's shrinking again. Even after a year, there's only ever been a handful of us. And I mean, to most of you guys that's probably not a huge deal. But try imagining getting plucked into a world where you're one of, if not the only hue-man... or whatever species you are and surrounded by a majority of some species you've never even heard of before.

I've lucked out because a lot of the hue-mans I've met are generally pretty cool. And sure, it's still crazy dealing with weather, seasons, and... well, everything that happens by itself, but it's not as scary now.

[But... and though she hates to admit it. Showing weakness is not her thing--]

But sometimes, I guess I can't help but get a little homesick. Especially at times like this.

[And with that, she'll push the journal closed with one of her hooves.

For a little while, she'll hang around the farmlands, just wandering around for a bit. Eventually, she'll return to the village and, after a short trip to the bakery to drag home some cupcakes, quietly fly towards house 45. If she spots a familiar face she'll try and greet 'em with her usual spunk. Those that know her well enough, however should be able to tell that something's a little... off.]

[ooc: Feel free to encounter her before or after her announcement! She can be found just about everywhere before she slips over to AJ's and after she'll mostly be around town.]

[She was just trying to be sympathetic, really.]

I just meant... since we experience the same things, we can understand each other, even if, like you said, we're not the same sort of being.

I understand that, too.

[She'd never had many friends as a child growing up. None until junior high when she'd met Usagi and the others, really, and she... hadn't always been the best friend (to put it so very mildly).

She's left that behind, stepped out of herself a bit, and learned. But she still remembers what it was like to be lonely. To feel like she didn't belong. To hear people whispering maybe she
wasn't human.]

It's alright.

If you're missing your friends, why not do something to remind you of them?

[The former genius girl of Juuban smiles a bit thinly, and tells herself Rainbow Dash probably truly hadn't meant anything bad by it.]

What do you enjoy, then? You can remember them through the things you like, too.

[Dash would probably get along with Mako-chan.]

What do you do together with your friends?

[It sounds all too familiar, between hanging out at Crown and fighting the Dark Kingdom.]

It sounds like they're good friends to you. No wonder you miss them.

I'd like to help cheer her up if I can. [And you, too, Dash, really.] Is there something I can do?

[Dash, she would love to have that much self-confidence.]

Mm. I can understand that. But I think there are times everyone really needs someone to be there for them, too.

You can help each other. People aren't hurt in order, or more or less. You both lost a friend.
