22:14 Stoic walks out to the house of GyroTech, excited to pick him up and lead him to the local jousting tourny. He was also excited to tell the stallion about the night with the mare he hooked up with in the bar and how swimingly it went. So as he soon reached the moderatly size housed and knocked on the front door... he couldn't stop a smile from coming to his face as he waits in antisipation for the opening. So as he soon reached the moderatly size housed and knocked on the front door... he couldn't stop a smile from coming to his face as he waits in antisipation for the opening.
22:22 GyroTech opens the door soon after the first knock, rushing over to the door and throwing it open. The unicorn was dressed up a little bit, wearing a comfortable looking emerald vest adorned with an emblem of one of the notable jousters back in Canterlot. "Oh hey Stoic. Today's gonna be great isnt it. Its bit forever since I've last been to one of these. " He chatters excitedly.
22:24 Stoic was happy to see he was so excited for the occation. He steped back to look over the dressed up unicorn and was quite shocked that he was so well dressed for it... he just went as is. He had never been to one of these and had only heard of the sport until now. He smiled all the same though and said "My, you are excited, your dressed up better then you would be on a date~" He jests as he pulls out their all access passed, giving on to him to He jests as he pulls out their all access passed, giving on to him to hang around his neck "Here you go, to hold onto for when we get there"
22:29 GyroTech looked over Stoics dress, or rather lack of it, and frowned just a little, but didn't comment. He lowers his head in order for the pony to slipp it over his head, and in a sad tone responds in jest, "Aww...you mean it isnt? But I thought you were interested in me Stoic."
22:32 Stoic puts the badge around his neck, giving him a hug as he does "Hey. No frowning around. I'm doing this to get to know you, not the side of you that wants a peice of my flank~" He teases yet again, throughly meaning the first part... only jesting about the seocnd part. It would be clear which was what by his tone.
22:37 GyroTech returns the hug happily, letting it just be a normal hug until Stoics comment. Then Gyro lets his hoof wander down to Stoics butt to continue the joke. "Dang...and you have such a cute rump too," He joshes back before breaking away from the hug.
22:40 Stoic smiles to him, easily telling the joshing from his tone and knowing him. He turns around and wiggles it teasingly before walking off "Lets get a move on so we can do some awesome stuff there before the jousting starts" He suggest, their passes basicly letting them do almost anything.
22:45 GyroTech smiles back and snickers as Stoic shakes his rump at him. He then trots up beside Stoic after shutting his own. The unicorn didnt even seem to bother to actually lock his house. "Ya...like we gotta peak through the program and pick the champions to lay down a couple bits on and get a flag or two."
22:48 Stoic gave him a curious look of wonder. He doesn't know a thing about jousting and here he goes spouting out a bunch of things he doesn't even understand. The confusion on his face easily passed over to the other stallion walking with him
22:51 GyroTech continues happily, "And then since it looks like we have box seats we can mingle with the other ponies up there and snack and stuff and-" Gyro cuts himself off as he finally notices Stoics look of confusion. "Whats wrong Stoic my boy?"
22:53 Stoic shakes his head and sighs, continuing to walk along "You completely forgot that I have never done something like this before... yet you keep talking in the lingo of something that I never grew up with~" He said, in a teasing way. He really wasn't upset about it as much as he wished he knew what the hell he was talking about
23:01 GyroTech stops in his tracks and shakes his head in disbeleif. "Wait...you only told me you'd never jousted before...I didn't realized that you'd not even been to a tournament before. I mean...even the peas--common--err non noble ponies seem to go to many of the tournaments around Canter
16:50 Stoic chuckles at him, seeing him try not to use offencive terms. He wasn't sure though if that was from that he didn't want to say anything offencive to him or just nothing offencive at all "Yeah, I've never been to one, I've heard of them and read about them in the morning paper but never once did I bother going to them..." He smiles and continues walking "Also, remember, not from Canterlot"
16:51 < Stoic> (I was about to offer an rp to Mac)
16:54 GyroTech just sighs and shakes his head. "Well, despite your well deprived childhood, I think I can bring you up to speed. It will be almost like you've actually been to one before. Have you attended any sporting match?" He asks curiously, wanting to be able to use that as a base.
16:56 Stoic nods to him with a smile as they walked along the path in the city "Of course, went to a hoofball game with a pegasus friend... man do I miss her so~" He said as if he was reminicing the time he spend with that wonderful mare.
16:57 GyroTech stops in his tracks and looks amazedly at his friend. "You took that mare you just met to a hoofball game? Did she suggest it? Because thats kind of a strange move most of the time, given that its more of a stallion sport."
16:59 Stoic shakes his head with a chuckle "No no, not Sweet... we only just met and the only thing we did was have a romantic night on the peir. She told me she always wanted have such a moment..." He trailed off as his face once again looked to be reminicing the event
17:03 GyroTech giggles heartily as Stoic trails off, giving him a hearty pat on the back of the neck. "I think someponies in loooooovvvvveee," he teases in a playful manner.
17:04 Stoic blushes and pushes him playfully back for the teasing tone of his voice "Of course I am, you fool... and I know you are as well~" He said with a smerk, forseeing another tit for tat session as they walked
17:07 GyroTech wasn't one to be one upped and upon being pushed off, Gyro returned with a hearty hug. "That I am, with you!" He says giggling and then giving Stoic a kiss right on the lips, trying to pull back before any tongue became involved.
17:08 Stoic blushes heavily as he kissed him, amazed such an 'upstanding' stallion kissed another on the lips. He looked to him with a blush "My my, I didn't think you were into that kind of thing~" He jokingly teased as he gave him a kiss back, pushing his tongue against his mouth a bit before pulling back and giving a teasing expression with his tongue sticking out.
17:11 GyroTech laugs heavily as the other stallion blushes and seems to be left speechless, only to once again get teased back. Gyro blushes heavily as he feels stoics tongue on his lips, pulling away and looking a little cowed, left completly speechless.
17:13 Stoic smerks at his winning blow to the stallion, walking in the speachless silence of his winning victory as the arena which the event was held came quickly into view.
17:18 GyroTech walks behind in silence as well, though his was more of a shameful silence at having been bested by his friend. His joy returns though as soon as he sees the stadium apear in view, the unicorn bouncing up and down. "Ooh, we're almost here," he shouts excitedly, his tail flicking about widly.
17:20 Stoic was happy to see his friend once again walking highly, not liking the sight of his friend being so down... thats just how it turned out "We should be able to walk right in with these passes~"lot. They're fun events." He takes a deep breath before continueing to walk. "Well you are in for a treat."
00:20 GyroTech presses forward a little faster to close the distance between them and the gates. "Ooh, its been almost a year. Can't you hear the roar of the crowds from here?" Gyro was almost prancing, just barely keeping the lid on his excitement.
00:22 Stoic could hear it, but most of that was in his excited imagination as the statium was filling up. He walks up to one of the gate keeps, upon showing them the passes, the large stallion smiled and bowed "Welcome~ Please enjoy the Tourament... your Private VIP booth is all ready for you~"
00:25 GyroTech continues to move with exceptionally light feet down the path, his eyes darting around, surveying all the mares and the booths that sold various trinckets and concessions. He stops in front of one of the information booths and purchases a program with a list of the champions to be competing for the day. "Oooh, lets see if there's anypony I know in here..." he says, flipping through it.
00:28 Stoic nods to him, standing next to him with a smile. He looks through them as well but mostly for the numbers... he didn't really know anypony here and wasn't all to interested in the sport, but he was spending time with gyro and they were already quite close as friends "Find anypony?"
00:31 GyroTech gives a nod. "Yep, one of the Armourhoof brothers is here from Canterlot. They did decently last time I saw them, and Saphire Lance from the crystal kingdome as well. I think he'll do pretty well. He was still a little green at the previous tournament but did alright."
00:32 Stoic shrugs and just nodded with him, smiling "You know, we can go and meet thise ponies if you want, talk to them... we can pretty much go anywhere with these passes... or we can head up and chill in our booth~"
00:36 GyroTech shakes his head. "I'm sure we can go whereever, but its bad form to talk to the champions before the end of the day. Don't wanna throw them off afterall. And to are booths? But we havn't even explored the arena yet." The unicorn takes off down one the paths that encircle the seating, searching for the betting booth.
00:44 Stoic sighs and shakes his head with a smile, it seems like hes going to have to wait quiiiiiiite a bit before he will be allow to sit back and relax to watch stallions duke it out. But he didn't mind it too much, he was here for him, not really himself
00:49 GyroTech drags his friend up to the counter and looks over the betting charts. "Well, it looks like Saphire Lance has decent odds, they put him at 5 to 1. What do you think Stoic, 200 bits?" The unicorn begins to pull out his bit pouch.
00:53 Stoic shrugs to his question, it seemed fair enough but he wasn't sure enough to actually make a difinitive choice. Never the less he let the stallion do what he wanted and even put a smaller amount of money on his own thinkings
00:57 GyroTech pulls it out and smiles at the bookmaker. "I'll take 200 on Saphire Lance to take it all," he says, plopping down the money and grabbing a ticket. "And I'll be back periodically for the individual matches." The unicorn gives the stallion a grin and begins trotting off again.
00:59 Stoic follows him, not bothing to question or stop him to question him, deciding to go along with the ride. It was more fun that way any way.
01:03 GyroTech stops off at one of the tents that was set up bearing the emblems of different champions. THis particular one was the colors blue and white and bore a crest of a lance held by a blue eagle. "Well, If i'm gonna root for them, gotta pick up flag," he comments with a grin, peaking through the store to find something he'd like.
01:05 Stoic sat outside with a sigh as he looks at all that is before him, smiling. He didn't get out so much so when he goes to this social event he can't help but smile at it all... especially the fact that hes making a new friendship using it
01:07 GyroTech exchanges a few bits and walks out with quite a large banner strapped to his side that flows as he moves. "Well Stoic? Who did you bet on? We need to get you a flag for them as well, and then we can brawl over our respective champions in the box." He gives a joking grin.
