If you can't do the time... {Blizzard}

[Prince Trea$ure]

Treasure walked into the costume area of the marketplace. He really needed a disguise for this next big heist he was planning, but he wasn't sure exactly what to get. He surely didn't want to stand out to much.

This part of the marketplace wasn't too busy around this time of year, which was perfect for the con artist pony. He laughed at some of the stupid things lying around. A clown costume, a super hero one too. 'What are people thinking when they make these?' he muttered underneath his breath, sort of hoping someone around heard it. He continued to window shop, seeing nothing that he liked in particular as of yet.

He continued walking for what seemed like forever just staring into shops. He was confused but that was probably because he wasn't exactly sure what he needed. He saw a booth full of yummy looking red apples, and there seemed to be no one close by that would be able to see him stealing. He walked towards it and with one quick swipe took and apple into his mouth and starting munching away. It was so sweet and juicy that he took two more. That's when the owner came back.

Treasure began to run. He didn't look the other way because there was no way he wanted her to see his face. He was running as fast as he could, which was pretty fast. When all of the sudden he slammed into an expecting pony.

[blizzard storm☂]

Blizzard was too busy scowling to notice another pony hurtling down the street at her. If she had noticed, she probably would have tripped him, but instead she turned the other way and was barrelled into. She stumbled backwards, digging her hoofs into the ground so she wouldn't fall over. Once she'd settled herself, she hunched forward, haunches raised, and snarled.

"What the hell are you doing?" she yelled, not having looked at the pony yet because she was still trying to gather herself. "You should watch where you're going, cow." For once, she felt completely rational about this--the collision had not been her fault at all. Preparing to rip the pony a new one, she reared back and took a deep breath. At that point, however, she saw who it was that she was yelling at. She settled down almost instantly and smirked.

"Oh, Princess, it's you. Sorry, I forgot that you suck at everything. I'll keep a better eye out next time." She tossed her mane, brushing some dust off her hooves.

[Prince Trea$ure]

Treasure didn't really feel sorry for running into the pony. She was in his way of course. As soon as she backed up he front flipped forward into the dirt. He laid there for a second until he heard her talk, he immediately stood up. He was sort of embarrassed so he just scowled at her. 'You shouldn't be stopped in the walkway!' he shouted at her, sort of in defense at her comment. 'And, I am no princess darling' he said flashing a very evil looking grin.

He brushed the remainder of the dirt off his body, making sure that it all blew in her way. He though about her being covered in dirt and this amused him. I guess you could say Prince and Blizzard were "friends" for all extensive purposes. Even though he had a bit of a crush on her a while ago but there was no way in hell he was going to admit that.

He sat there for a moment sort of unsure of what to say. 'So, what are you doing here?' he said nonchalantly.

[blizzard storm☂]

Blizzard growled again. Even when she was trying to be calm and aloof and have the upper hand, being told off for doing something she didn't do made her angry--of course--and so she leaned forward to yell at him. "Uh, excuse me, I was walking, you were the one being an idiot. What are you even running from, anyway? Don't call me darling."

She settled down again so that she could shake the last of the dirt off of her hooves and then shook her mane out. It was never really particularly orderly, so that was fine, as long as she could toss it over to the side.

"Uh," she said, glancing around. "What all of the normal ponies do in a market? I'm shopping." She rolled her eyes. Pegasus stallions were seriously the stupidest.

[Prince Trea$ure]

He laughed at her shaking off the dirt. 'Oh well if she got dirty' he thought 'it was her fault I ran into her anyways.' he continued thinking in his usual jerky attitude. He laughed at her comment. 'Don't call you darling?' he teased. 'Then what else am I supposed to call an oh so polite lady?' He was probably pushing it with that, because he knew blizzard was pretty and she had a very nice mane.

He caught her rolling her eyes just in time. 'Now come on, was that really necessary?' he said. That was probably the thing that annoyed him the most. He couldn't stand sarcasm or when ponies rolled their eyes, but when it was blizzard it didn't seem to matter as much. He smiled slightly. 'Come on Blizzard, what are you really here for?' he teased at her some more as he reached into the small bag he had tied against his leg. He tossed her a shiny looking red apple to enjoy. 'Here' he said with a cheesy smile.

[blizzard storm☂]

Blizzard growled at him. She hated nicknames, other than things like "Blizz" or "Blitz" [which ponies never actually called her, though she would have liked them to on occasion], and she did not appreciate being given some sort of pet name. Pet names were for losers. "You could try my name. It's Blizzard, in case you were stupid and forgot."

She didn't understand this stupid stallion. He was just as stupid as other stallions, but weirder because he seemed to think that she had come to a marketplace for some reason other than to be at the marketplace, probably because he was stupid and liked to think he had a greater purpose in life than being stupid.

"I'm here to shop. Because that's what ponies do at stores." She was going to roll her eyes again, but then he offered her the apple. She wasn't sure if she trusted his acquisition of said apple, but at the same time, it looked good and she wanted it. She caught it and took a bite. "Thanks. You're still stupid, though." In case he had forgotten.

[Prince Trea$ure]

Treasure growled right back. He didn't like being talked back to. He knew blizzard was head strong though so it made sense. He stared at her for a minute, he couldn't tell whether she was super pissed off or just irritated. He shook the thought off for a minute, Blizzard was one of the closest things he had to a friend and he wasn't about to lose that.

Blizzard was prettier than other mares in his opinion. She just had an attitude and certain something about her that Treasure liked. He wasn't sure she liked him at all though, so he wasn't going to say anything about it. He analyzed her for a second. Her mane and tail were pretty messy, but it was unique, treasure liked unique. She was this gorgeous blue color and had the most adorable cutie mark. He shook the thought of liking her off pretty quick, but then again he was known for being greedy, and that greed was also about having all the girls he wanted.

'Well, of course you're here to shop, what else do ponies do at stores?!' he said like he had never asked the previous question. He watched her take the apple, obviously she had to trust him a little bit because she actually took a bite. 'Good?' he asked her as if he didn't know. They were the greatest apples he had tasted in a while. 'I'm stupid? Look in the mirror Blizz' he said laughing. He liked how that nickname rolled off the tongue, regardless of if she liked it or not that was currently her name as far as he was concerned.

[blizzard storm☂]

When he fought back, Blizzard almost could say that she appreciated Treasure as a pony. He was despicable, but at least he knew it and she could respect that. After all, it wasn't like she was Miss Moral Compass--she'd been known to steal things in the past as well. She growled again.

"Don't try to save face by pretending you came up with my insults," she said, eyeing him as she finished off her apple. "What are you doing here? Other than not paying attention and running into ponies."

She rolled her eyes. She had no doubt that he was up to something no good and she couldn't decide if she wanted to know what it was or not.

[Prince Trea$ure]

Treasure looked around. He wanted to make sure the owner of the apple stand didn't find him. As stealth as he was, his bulky wings seemed to get in the way sometimes, making him easily identifiable. Treasure was trying to figure out how to tell Blizzard they should move or walk around without sounding suspicious. He laughed at her growl. 'Real ferocious Blizz.' he said.

'Hey I thought I told you that you ran into me.' he said getting serious. One thing he was always greedy for was his dignity and pride, which to him meant being right all the time. He was glad she seemed to have enjoyed her apple, well technically it was the store owners but too late for that. 'I'm looking for an outfit' he said getting shy. He wasn't one to shop around [he hated paying for anything he prefers taking it and running.] and pretty much everyone who knew him knew that much. 'And yes, I'm going to pay for it' which wasn't entirely true either, the ponies he stole from were technically paying for it but oh well, finders keepers.

'So, wanna walk around a bit with me?' he asked trying to get her to move along because frankly he was going with or without her, but he knew for a fact he would look less suspicious with her by his side.

[blizzard storm☂]

Blizzard snorted. "Whatever you say, Princess T." With Treasure looking around, she started to feel a bit wary. Of course, it was possible that he was always just a little bit paranoid and looked over his shoulder a lot, as Blizzard tended to do, but when other ponies did it, especially ponies like Treasure, she got nervous.

"Carousel Boutique is over there," she said, pointing in the opposite direction. She started walking forward, feeling the need to move. "Don't ask weird questions." Not that his offer of walking with her had been that weird, but Blizzard wasn't about to start saying nice things.

[Prince Trea$ure]

Treasure growled at her. Princess? Seriously? He couldn't think of anything to say at that time. He continued looking around, he was a bit over paranoid it seemed, he could tell Blizzard was getting anxious. 'Now let's see, if I'm the princess you're in my prince' he teased. He was sweet talking her more than he should to get what he wanted, but at this point it didn't really matter. He just wanted to get out of the general area.

He didn't particularly want to go to the Carousel Boutique, but it was better than standing around waiting to get caught and in trouble. He followed her, frankly, he wasn't even expecting her to start walking, let alone lead the way. 'I didn't hear any weird questions' he began, 'You're a strange one blizz.' he stated. He sort of felt bad at that point for asking her, maybe she was the type of pony who liked to be left alone and do her own thing. Regardless he felt a bit safer walking around and moving away from the apple booth.

He continued to look over his shoulders while walking, but he made sure to always look down. It's not that he was trying to be rude to Blizzard, but he didn't want people to get the wrong idea of her as a pony. Treasure wasn't exactly sure people would think of Blizzard if they saw her with him, or what they would think was going on between the two of them, after all, as far as Treasure was concerned they were only just friends.

He saw some sort of store on the way to the infamous Carousel Boutique. It was full of pretty common clothes, not too flashy or anything which was perfect for a disguise as far as Treasure was concerned. They had glasses, fake mustaches, and tons and tons of clothes. 'Hey, can we stop in here for a few?' he asked.

[blizzard storm☂]

Blizzard couldn't care lessish about what the other ponies thought of her, but she did care that Treasure wasn't paying enough attention to her as they walked. He had invited her, dammit, so he had better be the one to entertain her. Besides, she'd never known him to look so dejected and unappreciative of himself as he did walking with his head down--it was weird and unnerving.

"What are you doing?" she asked, trotting up to him and bending down to look up and get in his face. She figured that she could either easily annoy him back to normal or get him to tell her what was wrong so that she could thus make fun of him until he was back to normal. Either way, he would stop acting so weird.

At his question, she looked into the shop. It wasn't anything special and she didn't really think either of them needed plain clothes, but she shrugged. "Sure, whatever. You're the one freaking out." She turned and went in, wandering over to a rack of hats.

[Prince Trea$ure]

Treasure smiled once more at the store display, he couldn't get over how utterly perfect it was! He wasn't intentionally ignoring Blizz, it just seemed to happen that way. He was the type of pony that once his mind was set on something, he went for it regardless of how he had to go about that. He felt bad for walking the way he did, but hey, he needed to think about his game plan.

He smiled at her. "What are you talking about?" he asked attempting to play it off. He didn't really feel like explaining his whole elaborate disguise plan, it was actually pretty lame because it wasn't thought out enough. He looked her up and down, he couldn't tell if she was annoyed or just acting normal so he just ignored her.

He glanced at the shop again before entering, it was an amazing find. He walked in and walked over to the glasses rack, they were a perfect disguise! There were sunglasses, those silly glasses with mustaches attached, and your average everyday glasses. He decided it was time to transform his whole appearance into something different! He would foll all the ponies of ponyville and cloudsdale, no one would see it coming, it was perfect. He tried on a pair of silly glasses "what about these?" he asked blizzard while making a silly face.
