... would like them to stop being used to set off stuff like traps, though.
*groan* They're expensive to make. Mmh, at least she's paying me for this–I feel like an adult, sort of.
Still not sure why I'm here though. I know it's for these, but... *She holds up one of her dolls she's brought with her--more wooden-like than fabric, with a turning key on its back*
The windup doesn't last very long still, so they're not exactly fit for automation yet...
*Looking over a handful papers and a heavily-marked map, she lets out a small sigh, being on her own with the others busy elsewhere*
Mm... they sure know what they're doing, at least. I think...
*Shuffledrop has been busy.
She's somewhere In Haywaii just outside some ruins, tagging along with a few members of her home town's R&D committee to help with fetching something of interest*
[I'm not around that much anymore but if you wanna reach out to or just follow me elsewhere out of here my OoC handle is @medisour, so poke me there if you'd like.
Same goes for @mlp_shuffledrop–see you there or whenever for now 👋]
I know I shouldn't spend too much, even now that I've got more to work with, but...
*She tries out a slightly-garish scarf, looking at herself at the store's mirror* Spiffy!
*Shuffle's been in Equestria for the past couple days or so by now. She's just been kind of stuck over at Manehattan at the moment--not so much by circumstances, but by the fact that there are a few too-good-to-pass Hearthswarming sales going on the district she's made a stop at*
*Shuffledrop's on a boat tonight.
She's enroute to the Equestria mainland after being away for a fair while now--staying inside one of its cabins to stay warm, she's just glancing out the window, humming to herself* Ho-hum...
*Sketching a few doodles on the page, Shuffledrop glances away from the notebook, out the window; it's dark and rainy, late as it was.*
Rain again tonight, mmh... oh, geez–with everything going on, I forgot it was Nightmare Night already...
"Every day's darker in Caster ever since the summer solstice....
.... the Guildhall's been off limits for a while, and nobody's seen Gov. Merrywise in just as long... ." *scribble* *scribble* "My friends.. the old sewers.. . something lurking. Ought go to mainland again."
Uhm, how /do/ I know where someone is?
*She brings the quill in her hoof up, tapping it against her chin* Maybe it's still too soon to try and write a letter, buuuut she said I should anyway, so... hmmm.
.........
*Shuffle's home, eyeing a piece of paper on her desk. She's been pondering something for a good hour or so now, having found the time to do it since she's returned to her home city following graduation...*
Thank you, miss Headmare...!
*She gives @mlp_Equality's hoof a quick shake before fetching the paper, holding it out for a second and flashing a grin at the audience before scooting back to her seat*
Thanks, @mlp_GabbyGriff; see you!
*She gives her and @mlp_Gallus a quick goodbye wave, then makes her way to another part of the picnic, leaving the two griffons alone before long.*
I've been fine! Just, enjoying myself before the big day tomorrow, you know?
*She gives @mlp_GabbyGriff a hearty nod and a grin, stretching her hooves a little* I should go mingle around some more before it's late, too... I'll see you both tomorrow, eh?
Yes, ah--
*Her train of thought's promptly derailed as @mlp_gabbygriff makes her entrance, just watching her hug @mlp_gallus right up. Blinking, she hops off the bench, dusting a few bread crumbs off her*
...seems I took your attention for one second too long there! *giggle*
R, Right, that's plenty of time.
*She gives @mlp_gallus a firm nod, though looking a little ponderous afterwards. She slides a bit down on the bench, 'sinking' into it*
I'll probably end up leaving as soon as graduation ends myself, so, uhm... goood luck in advance?
