[PRP] a ride around town (Mellow and Trisha)

[phantompanther13]

"Hey Mellow, let's check out this store." Trisha clopped into the craft store of the maul. sure they were really there for sugar cubes and minipet snacks, but the ghoul couldn't resist the call of crafts.

Pulling the boil out of his room had been quiet the chore. It was made much harder by the fact that she didn't have sugar cubes on hand. That was half the point of the trip really, Trisha had her back with her and ready to haul the things she needed. But without the key ingredient, it made it that much harder to convince her fellow hooved friend to brave the great outdoors. Such a shy thing he was.

When she decided on the trip, really she had put it off a little too long, while had to take a companion. Part of it was she hadn't been able to catch the attention of a friend in a while and the other part was, well honestly she was just dreading the cold just a bit. Not that she really minded the cold, it wasn't such a big deal, but cold on unshoed hooves when there was the potential lull of a nice warm room made it really really hard. She had run out of sugar cubes a while ago, but there was the Cafeteria that was so much closer, despite the grumbling from the gnomes when she emptied the sugar cube bowl into her bag. But recently they seemed to disappear from the severing table. When she asked the school had run out. she wasn't sure how the whole school had run out but it was far pasted time to buy more.

"I'm so glad spring is rolling back in again, I thought I saw some fresh grass growing on the school grounds. Soon it will be tall enough to properly run in. Isn't that exciting Mellow? And flowers. The pansies should be blooming soon. When they do I'll make you a crown of them. for now... I really should pick up some ribbons and supplies." she stared her way into the store.

The pony shook his lovely green head, he'd tried to transform into his natural smaller (which he never admit) form. However, Trisha, being his neighbour for a while knew his insufficient escape tricks well enough to drag him out.

A simple shirt, his cowboy style cape and long boots, the ceffyl dwr walked behind the ghoul with a grumpy face, hands in pocket. He'd even opened his mouth to reject her, but she was Trisha, the monster ghoul who lost some screws in her mind. Thus, he was reluctantly pulled out when she threatened with a bright smile, offered to carry him. Mellow's face flushed obliviously as she talked about the sugar cubes in cafeteria, he'd grabbed from there often as his snacks, they were free anyways. He chose to remain silent.

Mellow rarely nod for the comment the grasses will be like to run onto, as a hooved species, he loved running. Yet, shortly, he widened his eyes and retreated from the ghoul mentioning flower crowns. The ribbons, along themselves were hard to bear, not to say some girly flower crown on the mighty boil. There were millions of horses racing across his poor mind, to stop forthcoming conspiracies, he halted, refused to move.

He didn't follow, thinking she'd tricked him that they were buying some sugar cubes. His eyes looked at the special snack shop banner afar and flicked back to the craft store.

Nope.

Trisha had gotten as far as 3 feet into the door when she realized that her companion was missing.

"Mellow!" she turned and searched for her quiet companion. Had he gotten lost? He was such a little mini.. calf... boil. What is he got trampled by some absent minded bull? Worst, what if someone had mistaken him for a loose mini and picked him up, or worst eaten him? He was so reluctant to some out, surely he knew the dangers of one as small as himself wandering of into the great world alone.

Trisha made a full about face to fine him just a few feet outside the door. "Mellow. It's alright," Clearly the craft store was a little intimidating for him. she could tell but his slight frown and reluctant domineer. His earlier small protest rang in her ears, clearly the shy bull needed to be close to feel safe in their herd of two.

"We won't be in long. Besides I bet I can find something to match your eyes."

If Mellow knew what was in Trisha's mind, he was going to be pissed off and uselessly attempted to insult her back like a child. The call startled him as he sensed coming danger, his alarm told him to move his feet and flee. Yet, he was fossilized.

Mellow, it's alright, she'd said. {From where to where is this alright? (￣◇￣; )} What she thought she understood was what worried the boil, especially when she seemed looking at him as something so pitiful. He wasn't scared or frightened, he just disliked ribbons and girly stuff being put onto him.

Her assurance didn't improve anything, the boil had no intention to move himself into the store, waited a while, the ghoul took his arm and dragged him in, like always. He'd yell if he considered that not something a mighty pony would do, his pressing against the ground created minute friction in stopping the bull ghoul simply meant strength.

His eyes glanced at the crowd looking at them, upset. { What're you looking at? Didn't see someone getting pulled into a store before? Shoo (╯°□°）╯︵ ┻━┻ } ".....No. Trisha. No." He made himself clear.

Trisha paused when Mellow spoke. It was one of the very rear times that he did speak. His feet had planed into the ground much like a mule. She could easily just pick him up and carry him, but she didn't want to frighten her small companion. "Mellow it's ok." but she saw the look. His nervous glance at the crowds, and his stony completion. Clearly the boil did not want to stay here for long.

"Alright, we'll skip the crafts for today. I should probably have more room for food anyways. Is there a store you wanted to stop at while we are out?" Trisha realized suddenly that her small pony companion might be in need of supplies himself. How could she call herself a good friend if she didn't make sure he also was well stocked.

meegane

Free mellow free!

 

[Meegane]

She'd finally realized his mightiness, great. There was an unclear sigh heaved when her question was heard, all he gave her was a look, eyes squinted slightly as she forgot what the objectives of their trip was - simply snacks and sugar cubes.

One good thing going out with Trisha was that he didn't need to afraid the approaching of other female creatures which allured by his man charm （￣へ￣）. Also, she can serve as a perfect meat shield in cases of dangers with her monstrous strength. { Jack! If only he had that strength, he won't be cornered by that plant witch. } The sulky pony contemplated.

If Trisha was observant enough, she could notice the boil was wearing the shirt she'd seen when they first met and many other times when the boil visited her for a snack time as well. Nevertheless, Mellow who thought his companion would not be smart enough to recall their purposes, pointed to the banner of the snack store.

"There." He gave a short quick answer.

Trisha had noticed that his shirt was the same one he wore many times before. It was yet another reason why she questioned him on his own needs. but Trisha also had an understanding that sometimes calves had things, that they liked a lot. Like a security blanket. Clearly Mellow had those. but still.

"Oh I know we are going to pick up snacks silly. I just want to be sure there isn't anything else you needed like maybe a hansom new shirt? Or a pair of shoes." she looked down at his feet and wiggled her own hooved in debate. Maybe she should see if they had something for hooved. Ribbons only covered the legs of her feet. It did nothing for frost getting up into the soft parts of her hooves.

"Don't worry about seeds, I have have plenty. It's just we are already here, and if there is anything else anything at all we should grab it now before the food."

Security blanket, yup, he had one when he curled under it while reading Critter and made disapproved face at one of its frequent posters. He'd wondered why there wasn't a dislike option that he could press. Instead, he favourited other's posts to show his stance.

The word 'silly' made Mellow frowned, but it only took one second for his face to be blank again. He looked down his boots and pulled his shirt, maybe the answer is yes. Since both lowered their heads, when Mellow looked up, his head hit on her chin. {It must be made of metals, it hurts (T _ T) } His ears dropped for the pain, but he wasn't crying.

"...It looks more like you need shoes, rather than me." The rare comment was to hide his plight and gave her a direction. It wasn't that he cared about her feet, he turned and walked towards the snack store himself. The boil took a glance at the ghoul followed closely behind, before entering the store.

Trisha waited as he examined his cloths. He seemed to think about it. Clearly the answer was yes. She might have leaned a little closer, or maybe it was he who got closer to her, but when he pulled up, his smacked her chin, causing her jaw to slam shut on a piece of her tongue. Owwwww. She held her jaw for a moment waiting for the stinging to go away.

She barely noticed his lack of crying. In fact it barely occurred to her he would have even been hurt. Head is not tongue.

His comment distracted him as he spoke... possibly the most words he has ever spoken to her. "Oh... I don't usually wear shoes. It's almost warmed up anyway. She followed him into the feed store for now. Rubbing her tongue inside her mouth.

meegane

Good job mellow.

 

[Meegane]

Mellow's target was crystal clear from the start, a few seconds to scan the medium sized store before he brought himself to the section of sugar cubes. He stood there, captivated by the fancy display of sugar made into different shapes.

He'd forgotten he had a companion, and gulped as drools secreted from the mouth closely shut. The boil was making an expression rarely seen on his face, even more obvious when he reached out to grab Trisha's bowl of sugar cubes. His yellow eyes were subtly shimmering with devotion less the body language.

Trisha, who was left behind, would have searched a while in the store before locating where the boil was. He vanished like a gust once they entered the door, it was his talent and it saved him many times from the ghouls' evil claws in the past.

When Trisha saw the Ceffyl dwr, he was munching at the samples on a plate, ears twitching in a delightful cadence.

[phantompanther13]

On second Trisha had a companion, the next her herd member was no where to be seen. She blinked pausing and looked around only to spot Mellow where she should have guessed he would be. Right next to the sugar cubes. She followed him over a little more slowly.

Oh this store had different shapes. How exciting. she watched Mellow's face as he sampled trying to figure out which were his favorites. another part of her tried to calculate which ones she wanted as well.

The deadpanned munching face turned to her, tail swung lightly at his back without any comment. Mellow gave his reunited companion a glance before picking another brown color sugar cube to put into his mouth.

Treat yourself, he'd meant to say.

Hoof creatures, especially equines enjoy sugar cubes as treats was well-known. Even the minipets followed that rule. He searched in his pockets and dug out a few seeds, then looked at the price tags near the plate. They served like candies, and calculated in grams or pounds.

Mellow the village boil, who didn't have any part-time wasn't able to afford these fancy little things.

[phantompanther13]

Trisha looked at the bowls and then picked up a few boxes of the ones he was staring at. "Don't worry about the price. I have us covered." she smiled at him, beaming from her eyes. "It's why I brought you all the way out here of course."

She poked around trying a few of the cubes herself. Little bat shaped ones and bone shapes.

"Mmm these ones are good too." she pointed at some green ones.

Hearing what Trisha said, Mellow turned his head away to hide the mild blush on his face. It somehow hurt his man pride to let a mare to pay for him, but he had no choice. Thus he gave her an unwilling nod for acknowledgment.

His eyes followed her eyes, and picked up a green one to try when she mentioned it was good. Munching, his emotionless face showed no cues but the tail sold him out. He'd looked at the sugar and then Trisha's bright smile before he made a slow affirmed nod. "Matcha....and mint" He mumbled softly after munched the normal square shape that had a refreshing green color.

Mellow approved of the soft green, thought of something, looked around until he found what he wanted. It was a free sugar cube jar consists of colorful letters, using the clamp, he'd picked up six of them, all yellow and ran to the cashier. A while latter, he came back, face turned aside while he handed her a long rectangular treat container. From left to right, the letters were T, R, I, S, H, A. He brought it with his seeds as a cheap thank you gift but he didn't say anything to her, just pushed it to her side for her to take it. A pink ribbon was asked to tie the box.

"Are you done here?" He'd asked after she took the box.

[phantompanther13]

Trisha watched his face but he was quiet stubborn, but his tail, there was that happy little flick. Yes. He wanted these. It was such a good idea to bring him alone. Trisha was pleased. She now knew some of the best snacks to pick up for him. "Ok!" she picked up two boxes of each, that should last them a good long while.

While Mellow seemed to have picked something out, Trisha tromped off gathering a few big heavy bags of mini pet food and a few jerky snacks. Some for Aki and some from herself. Oh and a bag for the kio, she couldn't forget her fishy friends.

It took her a few minutes to pick the her things and she sung the heavy bags over one shoulder with relative ease tromping over to the cash register and setting them down on the counter with a heavy thump that knocked a few things off. "Opps!" Trisha quickly helped pick those things up before paying.

"Oh is this for me?" she took the box and peeked inside. "Oh how cute. Thank you Mellow." Tisha's tail flicked and she did a few baby steps, hooves prancing for a moment.

"Oh, almost. Let's go look at shoes."
