Username: belloblossom
Who are you entering with? Aquila
Link to the RP you're using: n/a
Prompt response: Aquila was named after the eagle constellation. Her coat reflected the stars and their nebulas above. And yet, not a single moment of her time was wasted thinking of "space" and "celestial patterns". No, Aquila much preferred spending her time wallowing in self-loathing and being upset about her species traits, or lack there of. So much loathing she had in her winged parentage and the useless, flightless wings on her back, that she could not see that she was a thing of beauty. So sad for the starry mare.

Username: Teigra
Who are you entering with? Astrophel
Link to the RP you're using: N/A
Prompt response: The star-speckled alicorn found himself in a rare moment of reflection, staring up into the night sky. The way it matched his coat in places, they could have been brethren. A similarly hued fox cleaned his paws nearby on the hillside. After quite a while of staring upward, Astrophel broke the silence. "Have you ever wondered how many stars are up there?"

Tareq paused from cleaning some dirt from his pawpads. What was this? "...not particularly. I mean, I don't have to wonder; I know."

The alicorn frowned at the quick answer. "Do you really? Then, how many stars are in the night sky?"

"All of them."

Astrophel snorted, rolling his eyes at the fox's antics. "You're terrible."

Username: whoan
Who are you entering with? Colm
Link to the RP you're using: n/a
Prompt response: The stars were silent that night. Colm was used to hearing their faint song, to lifting his voice with them, but tonight they were silent. He quietly smoked his pipe, sweet heavy smoke rising from it to dance in the warm air. He stared at one star in particular. It was far off, but bright enough to silence the others in awe. Colm snorted. Every fiber in the druids body claimed that star was important. He knew not why but the feeling lay deep inside him. Putting out his pipe by scooping the burning leaves with his long horn and stomping on them, the druid decided to move on. The silence made him restless. So he walked towards the bright star.

[Leena-chan]

There are billions and billions of stars!

Username: Leena-chan
Who are you entering with? Kuwanyauma
Link to the RP you're using: N/A
Prompt response: Just as the beautiful beads from her home in her mane and tail foretold, the stars above always held a special place for the mare of dreams. Each star’s glimmer sparked to life a new story to behold and a new fantasy to form. It was because of the twinkling lights above in the night sky that it was often at night she found herself wandering from familiar lands. It was through the paths forged by the stars that Kuwanyauma always found herself a new world that she never would have found on her own. It was thanks to the heavens above that the world below held such wonder. It was in those dreams did she find her home no matter where that home came to settle in the light of day.

Username: kettyn
Who are you entering with? Relic
Link to the RP you're using: --
Prompt response: "The stars guide us, truth or fiction? I've never put much stock in looking to the sky for answers and why would I? I mean it's fair to say that before I met Jessamine that I had no need to glance up and take notice of such trivial things. That all changed when I heard reports from my grandson and how wishing on a certain star changed his life and that of his mate's as well. They were blessed with two darling foals and it brought them closer together. They began to act civil to each other and became a loving couple. It was then that I decided to test the powers of the stars above. I snuck off one night, leaving Jessamine alone in order to make my own wish. See I knew that Jess was afraid to have more children as she feared that she'd turn on them. When the stars granted my wish it was my words that I believe finally convinced Jess that she wasn't alone in this venture, not this time. We had two lovely fillies and then Jessamine surprised even me when she too went and wished on the star bringing yet one more daughter into our lives that we could love and dote on.

Jessamine still has her rough patches and that will never change but because of the power of the stars my relationship with her has never been stronger."

Relic paused before clearing his throat hastily, "I would also like to add that because of another wish I made I've been reunited with my sister, Psyche."
 

[Rita Zyon]

Username: Rita Zyon
Who are you entering with? Natsuko
Link to the RP you're using: N/A
Prompt response: Her affection for the stars came to her through her dad. His coat reminded her of the stars and Natsuko was proud of the small dots here and there on her body that equally reminded her of the stars. Despite her dad's enigmatic personality, there had been moments in her young life where he talked about his foal years with Natsuko and her younger sister, Mi-Shoku. It was through these stories that allowed Natsuko to further understand her dad and his upbringing. He had told her that each star likely had their own story and that sometimes connections between the stars allowed for unique shapes to appear in the sky. These shapes - such as a crab or a scorpion - had their own stories too, at least that was what Natsuko's grandma had told her dad which in turn allowed him to pass down to his foals. Despite never meeting her paternal grandmother, Natsuko always felt in her heart that she was connected to her grandma through the stars. For when she looked up at the night sky, Natsuko imagined that her grandma may also be seeing the same stars as she was.

Username: Aria Starstone
Who are you entering with? Auberon
Link to the RP you're using: N/A
Prompt response:
Auberon was gazing at the stars, one of their favorite things to do. Every night, when they got the chance, they spent some time star gazing. Tonight was so very clear, they almost felt they could just fall into the sky and swim off into the river of Stars above. They found themselves wishing, out loud, for a friend to join them who might understand their desire to gaze at the stars, for as long as they could in a night.
 

[Celeanor]

There are billions and billions of stars!

Username: Celeanor
Who are you entering with? Amarinne
Link to the RP you're using: N/A
Prompt response:
The night was effortlessly dark, a rich shroud of velvet stretched across the sky. Looking up, the slim unicorn mare found herself counting stars ... wondering when the one she'd given her heart to would find his way home again.

"Silver light shining
Is it your eyes or the sky?
The long journey ends"

Poetic? Perhaps not, but there was something to be said for wishful thinking - and no one was around to see the crystalline streak dampening her cheek when she didn't hear the chiming of his silver hooves echoing in answer.

Who are you entering with? Xuen
Link to the RP you're using: N/A
Prompt response: Xuen stared at the stars that twinkled vibrantly above him, likes a million fireflies that slowly danced their way across the cosmos over the course of the night. Every night he would watch them, and every night his heart would fill with a sorrow he could not remember. Why would the stars cause him sorrow?
