- >Be Adagio
- >Looking out the window you couldn't tell what had changed more, the environment or life itself
- >You never really paid attention to the subtle changes that arrived with each season
- >But now that you were no longer chasing power you are finally able to sit back, relax and enjoy such a rare view
- >The town had been covered in a blanket of snow that was as captivating as it were miraculous
- >The blanket spread out as far as you could see, covering countless buildings, hills and even the countless post lights and poles
- >Yet it looked as if it were just a smooth pure white sheet that drape over everything, It was very bizarre
- >Even in the winter snow wasn't a common occurrence in this region
- >You'd be damned if you allowed yourself to be trapped inside during your first real winter
- >It was settled, turning your head you yell
- "Girls! We're heading out!"
- >Sonata
- >You hadn't left the house since before it began snowing last night, and did it snow
- >This being your first experience with snow you were in for a treat
- >Taking your first step outside you heard-
- >No
- >You 'felt' the snow crunch beneath your feet
- >It was extremely quiet out today, no animals or cars to be heard
- >Only silence
- >Not a sound, other than the crunching of the snow
- >With each consecutive step you couldn't wait to hear the next one
- >The pause between each step slowly became shorter until they were nonexistent
- >It was truly an invigorating sound
- >It really got the heart pumping
- >And the blood running
- >Turning back you see you'd put quite the distance between you and your companions
- >You couldn't help but laugh and wave to them
- >Even from here you could see Adagio's attention drifting from here to there
- >Aria even seemed to be enjoying herself, well as much as Aria could enjoy a walk anyway
- >Turning back you decide to go ahead and keep walking
- >They would just have to meet you there
- >Taking your next step you awaited the anticipated sound
- >The day hasn't even begun and it was already off to a magnificent start
- >Aria
- >So this was winter
- >You couldn't help but be genuinely curious
- >It wasn't as bad as you initially thought it'd be
- >Sure you would rather be home but this isn't a disaster by any means
- >It was quiet
- >But more so than that
- >It was calm
- >Before the destruction of the amulets you had to deal with constant shouting in one form or another
- >This was your chance at a completely calm day, no cars or bustle that you'd of dealt with on a normal day
- >The snow had been very unexpected, even the forecast had it wrong
- >Because of this you wouldn't have to work today
- >You had been designated to deliver orders from the local pizzeria
- >The manager would always pester you with the same saying
- >"You should smile more, it would surely help you receive tips"
- >Needless to say you didn't receive many tips
- >Regardless this wasn't the time nor place to rethink your job choice
- >Winter really was a spectacle to behold
- >The sky was a lighter shade of blue than you'd ever seen it
- >There wasn't a cloud in the sky, allowing the sun to shine down and seemingly reflect from the snow itself
- >With not much on the agenda aside from buying winter gear today actually looked somewhat
- >Promising
- >Adagio
- >Before long you meet with Sonata at the store
- "We are only here to pick up general gear let's try not to take to l-"
- >Someone was tapping your shoulder
- >Turning you see it is a man wearing ragged clothing and a scarf
- >"Spare some change?"
- >Aria was quick to dismiss him
- >"Let's go already, stop wasting time."
- >You also ignore the man, walking into the store
- >You peek back to see Sonata handing the man a dollar before rushing to catch up
- >Less than an hour later the shopping had ended and you were leaving and the man was still outside, pacing the road
- >He waved, a smile occupying his face
- >The three of you had only been walking a good three minutes when you felt someone drape their arm around your shoulder
- >"Evening friends!"
- >Accompanying these words was an affectionate and rather overbearing squeeze
- >It was him again
- >You turn and quickly grabbed him by the scarf, Aria had reacted in a very similar way both of you raising a fist
- >Quickly releasing his grip he raises his arms but the smile never leaves his face
- >"Ladies please, let's be reasonable here."
- >Shoving him back he loses his balance
- >The smile holding strong
- >It was really annoying
- "Bug off or that smile of yours will be missing more than a couple teeth."
- >Even as you began walking you could hear him following behind you
- "Don't you have anything better to do?"
- >He crosses his arms
- >"Now that is no way to speak to a friend."
- >He was doing nothing more than wasting time at this point
- >You turn and begin walking again
- >"Happy Holidays!"
- >Would he ever give up?
- >Your curiosity gets the better of you and you find yourself peeking back
- >He was gone
- >Sonata
- >Dropping your bags and closing the door to your room the mans words echoed in your head
- "Holidays..."
- >Even after the countless years you've been banished to this world you never had a chance to celebrate any of the holidays
- >This was the first time you really would be able to celebrate one
- >But Aria and Adagio didn't seem like the type to be into holidays
- >You had to admit, since the amulets were gone things had become boring
- >"That is exactly what I was thinking!"
- >You jumped, startled by the voice behind you
- >Turning you see the man from before
- "What are y-"
- >"No no no keep going, I want to hear more about how terrible life is without power."
- >You hadn't been thinking out-loud again had you?
- >"Oh no you're fine."
- >He lay stomach flat across your bed, head propped on his hands and feet treading through the air
- "A-Are those my pink slippers?"
- >Tilting his head back he grinned
- >"Oh these? They are absolutely divine."
- >For a moment he looks dumbfounded before the smile returns to his face
- >"Did I say that, I really need to stop talking to Rarity. Anyways are you going to finish that story or am I wasting my time?"
- >You are at a loss for words
- >A moment passes before his trademark smile slowly becomes a frown before he removes the slippers and stands up
- >"Even Applejack was more interesting than that story."
- >Walking passed you he handed you your slippers
- >They were very warm and drenched in what you could only assume was sweat causing you to immediately drop them
- "What did you do to them!?"
- >"Come on, my feet are not that bad!"
- >Opening the door he left and you awaited the sounds of a surprised Adagio and Aria
- "Three..."
- "Two.."
- "One"
