Cap - Flora

[04:03]<Flora_Bloom>	She'll be sutdying maps in the Mess
[04:04]?	Cap_Rat trots into the mess hall. "Any cool sights along the way, Flora?"
[04:05]?	Flora_Bloom blinks as she looks up. "Hmm? No. Not too much, I'm just learning the land for if I need to go off by myself."
[04:08]?	Cap_Rat tilts his head. "Do you want to leave? So soon?"
[04:08]<Flora_Bloom>	"No no." she states. "I mean after the delivery." She smiles. "I need to plan to go where my research will be plentiful."
[04:13]<Cap_Rat>	"What are you researching? You seem pretty good with plants."
[04:14]<Flora_Bloom>	"I am, but I need to find out exactly everything the old world knew about them... and more." She says, concentraited on some maps.
[04:25]<Cap_Rat>	"It's crazy to think ponies used to be so much smarter and it all got burnt down. The world is just too big for that too happen."
[04:08]?	Flora_Bloom shakes her head. "It didn't all get burned, but the area with the smarts did." she chuckles. "I suppose thats why it was burned."
[04:10]<Cap_Rat>	"Is that why there is so many stupid ponies out there these days?" He snickers
[04:11]?	Flora_Bloom doesn't. "No, it's because justice is faded and bleak. They're stupid because they choose to be, especially now."
[04:12]?	Cap_Rat blinks. "Wait, justice? What does that have to do with it?"
[04:14]<Flora_Bloom>	"Because." She sighs. "Justice is everything, it was before the stupid war, and back then it made everything easy. At least thats what I learned from studying. If there was some form of justice, a system of laws so ponies could... Would learn."
[04:17]<Cap_Rat>	"And the zebras, the zebras were the ones that fought the ponies, right? Was it because they didn't have justice?" He tilts his head.
[04:18]<Flora_Bloom>	"No no." She sighs. "It was because they HAD justice. Just... corrupted justice, and that corrupted the old world's justice as well, making it into the wasteland... and now it's trying to reform."
[04:21]<Cap_Rat>	"Gosh, you sure know a lot about these justice things." He smiles.
[04:22]?	Flora_Bloom smiles a bit. "It's my Virtue, I should know a lot about it." She says, standing up. "So then, who're you exactly? I didn't pay much attention to anyone. You're the first to come and speak with me."
[04:27]<Cap_Rat>	"I'm just Cap Rat. I get by, here and there. I used to be from these parts, but I don't see them since I was small. It's nice to be back." He nods to the outside.
[04:29]?	Flora_Bloom nods to him. "Nice then." She smiles. "So then. I'm Flora Bloom, came from up north from a town called Library. Thanks to some connections I got sent to the Acadamy to learn."
[04:33]<Cap_Rat>	"This Academy sounds like a really interesting place. Maybe you could show me?" He leans closer.
[04:34]?	Flora_Bloom chuckles. "On the map yeah." she points it out near the south western part of the Missipony. "But it's kinda boring to be at. Nice to learn, not nice to stay.
[04:39]?	Cap_Rat trots closer, looking at the map. "This one is too small for me." He grins
[04:39]?	Flora_Bloom sighs and points to the huge map in the mess hall. "Then look over there."
[04:43]<Cap_Rat>	"Just kidding, just kidding." He shakes his head, staying silent for a moment. "...do you wonder sometimes how things could've been different?"
[04:43]<Flora_Bloom>	"In which way?"
[04:46]<Cap_Rat>	"Maybe I could have gone there. I think that's what my father wanted." He leans against the boat wall, staring beyond the one on the other side.
[04:48]<Flora_Bloom>	"But you didn't." She says sighing. "Sometimes it's useless to dwell on the past, unless it changes us as we are now."
[04:52]<Cap_Rat>	"Sometimes we don't get to choose. But I don't mind, I'm pretty well here and that's good already."  He smiles. "I can't really dwell on it even if I wanted. It's just in my head. But I can be on a boat, and that cool."
[04:53]?	Flora_Bloom nods happily. "Boats are nice sometimes, but I prefer the soil, easier to plant things."
[04:55]?	Cap_Rat chuckles. "You could always get some water lilies out there"
[04:56]<Flora_Bloom>	"True, beatiful plants as they are. But I like the ground, more diversity."
[05:00]<Cap_Rat>	"Those funny things that sprout from the ground. What do you think of our friends here?"
[05:00]?	Flora_Bloom blinks. "The other group members?"
[05:01]<Cap_Rat>	"Yup. And the captain."
[05:03]<Flora_Bloom>	"Well I enjoy them." She smiles. "The pegasus is a bit mysterious, but she may lighten up with time. The gryphon is arrogent and annoying, so i enjoy messing with her. The Doctor is cute and nice to me, so I can't complain. The Batpony is charming to say the least, handy with mechanical devices to say the most."
[05:03]<Flora_Bloom>	"Captain is a nutjob grandpa who is off his rockers but I trust him to run his ship right."
[05:07]?	Cap_Rat chuckles. "The poor captain seemed to be in a hurry though."
[05:07]<Flora_Bloom>	"I'll bet. This ship seems to be his life." She looks to Cap_Rat. "So why are you talking with me?"
[05:12]?	Cap_Rat shrugs. "You looked like a cool pony to talk to."
[05:14]?	Flora_Bloom raises an eyebrow. "I'm sure. Will you be speaking with other members?" She asks, skeptical of this pony, although she seemed skeptikal of anyone who willingly would want to spend time with her.
[05:16]<Cap_Rat>	"Sure, why not? I'm here, they are there. I don't think Midnight will say anything but it just makes me more curious." He smiles.
[05:16]?	Flora_Bloom lets off a small smile. "Alright then. Distrust gone." She sighs. "So then, anything else to ask?"
[05:18]<Cap_Rat>	"Hmm, maybe another time. I have to check on those boxes for the captain."
[05:19]?	Flora_Bloom nods. "See you around Cap Rat. Enjoy the boxes."
[05:20]?	Cap_Rat waves and trots off
