I'm not sure where he went. I assume he's just been wandering town. He's not used to sleeping inside, so he probably found a park and slept under a tree We can meet up wherever you like.

Sorry for the delay in my reply to Roo in the Library... my roleplaying muse in general is just being sporadic right now... I'll try and get on it as soon as I can.
...and I have to admit, I was wondering after the mention in said thread... do ponies even eat things like bacon? I was under the impression they were more or less herbivores...

Don't beat yourself up. I've having a hectic weekend at work and it seems Becka haven't had time to RP these last days either. No worries. I was kind of wondering that too. I can see them eat eggs I guess, seeing as pastries, pancakes and the like seem fairly common in pony world.

Eloc and I had this discussion before A Game at Dinner started. Since his character is part dragon, I asked if his diet was anything I should take into consideration. We did come up with a few interesting things, but we eventually decided that Equestrian ponies and our ponies are very different, and thus have a different diet.
To prove my point, Generation 4, Season 1, Episode 13, 15 minutes and 17 seconds in: "Now, in a hot dog eating contest, it can make those doggies nice and slippery, but personally, I prefer mustard." I agree with Pinkie Pie. Mustard is so much better than ketchup. That's why I have four different types in my refrigerator downstairs, plus another two in the minifridge to my right. But still, Hot dogs are processed meat. That's why I say, go ahead and eat meat, but do so sparingly.

My characters have always eaten human food (pancakes were a huge favorite at the Nursery in C03) so I guess I didn't even think of it. It would be kind of weird to have a pony eat a hamburger, especially since they found horse meat in Burger King hamburgers My characters have a tendency to become anthro when they cook too, so they use their hooves like hands. I don't really worry about how that works And sorry for my absence also. I started querying agents last week (one partial request! Woohoo!) so all my computer time has been taken up by researching agents and re-writing my query and re-reading the first chapters to make sure they're perfect.

Yeah, I've never been able to stand the way Burger King did anything. Which sucks for me, because they're everywhere up here!! Seriously, would it kill them to put in just ONE Sonic Drive-in? I can eat at Sonic without getting sick to my stomach. Can't say the same for Burger King... Anyway, enough about how much I despise Burger King, because otherwise, I'd be here all day, and I'd never get to cutting and covering my next cake (which is going to be themed after Keep Calm and Flutter On, by the way). So, this is what I've seen eaten so far: Grits with cinnamon and butter, Mushroom and onion a la nouille (with a hint of ground ruby), Apple Tarte Tatin, Creme brulee, Sandwiches made from COB, The Bacon and eggs that Roo offered Twilight (I know it hasn't been eaten yet), Nachos (and lots of them), Fireweed (even though ingesting it is incredibly dangerous for most ponies), and some other kind of sandwich (I've left it up to Eloc to decide what kind last night, but he's been occupied since before I asked, so I'll just sit patiently and wait, or occupy my time by going to school until he logs back on). Of course, the above list is only Eventide canon. If I included show canon, I'd have to add blood sugar meds for Pinkie...

The idea behind toying around with Silent Storm's diet was mostly just to emphasize throughout both Eventide and T.D.W. that Sil's definitely not a normal pegasus.
I toyed with the idea of meats and gemstones along with average equestrian food-ish-ness and eventually concluded on gemstones as a definite yes, but meat as... an urge. Not really a necessity, just something that happens from time to time without a whole lot of thought.
Great, now I have a craving for venison, thanks.
On the subject of anthro-esque action, I have Sil wield his dagger with hooves as well as cook and such. Octavia manages to play cello rather well with her hooves, and pie throwing is done much the same, so I believe hoof using is quite allowed in an equine populated world.

I am reminded of Doctor Whooves trying to hold a sonic screwdriver with his hooves in the first episode, then giving up and using his teeth, despite the fact that Derpy is trying to show him how simple it is...

I have noticed a medium to moderate lack of ponies on the side of Eclipse. As a result of this, I have been both considering and conspiring about putting Silent Storm on her side, at least for a decent amount of time. I am letting you all know this because it is half-planned to happen in a couple of days, gametime, and it might affect... somepony, I don't know, just putting it out there.

I also have a character joining Eclipse. The only reason I haven't had him do so already is because he has yet to meet Eclipse. My other character, on the other hoof, is going to be joining the Mane 6, because of a certain somepony else who is also going to be on their side. And even though I try to avoid spoiling which is which, for the sake of anypony avoiding spoilers, It's pretty blatant which is which.
And the only reason I'm saying this is in response to Eloc's 'there aren't enough bad guys' post.
Seriously, you give me the opportunity to dress in a dark cape and cackle madly to a thunderclap, and then expect me to play the other side? Ha!

Fennec will be joining her also... as soon as he meets her.
We just need to get Kail and Whisp out of the castle so Eclipse can make her grand entrance in Whinnyopolis. (We're working on it! It's hard to escape an evil queen)

I can tell this is going to be loads of fun. I also posted for Lily in "Worlds Apart", so she's waiting for Fennec, but we're in no hurry until the current thread is finished (Lily also going to join the 'Dark Side').

I did have a question about Lilly - is she still in the Tower (like a courtyard), or is the pond in a park outside? Cause I can't imagine Fennec going into the Tower and happening upon a courtyard. If it's meant to be outside the tower then I'll get to posting.

Speaking of locations of certain area, does anypony know where I might find a museum? That's the only thing stopping me from stealing an item from it with my band of thieves.

Gin, my best guess would be either Argen or possibly, but less likely, Darvil.
After all of the Eclipse vs Equestria confirmations, I may make Silent Storm's rogueness more brief than before, but still a substantial period of time.
Man, this is gonna be LOADS of fun ;D
