Violia leaves after Mat and Azrael. She wasn't sure how this will work but she may need to be the one to lead of no one is able to chose. She then thinks about Azrael and considers him as the leader... but she'll need to talk to him about it. She'll have to fight her fear of his imposing looks. Celestia raised a brow, seeing Steam stay behind while the others left. She'd talk to her once the last pony leaves to see what she wants. This should be interesting to say the least.
Mat chuckles, "... Right, well, I think the two of us are kind of... well.. overkill's the best term, right?"
Steam looked at the Princess, making sure nopony was around to listen,"So...when should I tell the participants that this isn't a just a simple exploration, but rather a research on behavior at the same time?" Oh course, she wouldn't need to remind the Princess of the objective. The second objective. 1-Explore the uncharted lands and make friends with locals. 2-Monitor and note down how each participant reacts to the different variables and obstacles posed by the uncharted lands. Use this as an opportunity to understand Pony psychology and better Equestria with such research and knowledge. There was a third objective for Steam-find ways to profit and make money out of this. No matter what it takes.
Celestia looks to Steam with a thoughtful look. "It would be in both out best interests if none of them are aware of the finer details to this project. The more in the dark they are the better. But please do understand, this doesn't mean that they are allowed into situations that threaten their lives considerably. If this does happen however, be sure that it's not because of anyone's blame but the pony's actions alone. We don't need any extensive bad publicity for unethical experiments. The level of court work involved will leave me and my sister in a bad way with the CTI and the public. This is something that I would be happier if we'd avoid." She says, knowing what is put down on this. While the others are blissfully unaware of what they agreed to, this is something that does weigh on her heart if anything goes south. Violia soon caught up with Mat and Azrael, and she sees that they are nearing the train station. It seems a train is waiting for them indeed. (I think we many need to slow down. I've not seen stuffy post to much pretty recently.)
(I apologize. I've been fairly busy. Also, I've added the picture to her sheet.) Starry flew overhead, landing at the train station. She waited for the others, a thoughtful expression on her face.
Azrael stopped at the station and looked at Starry, curious. "You're deep in thought." He had time to kill. What's her name needed time to catch up.
Starry looked at him, somewhat nervously. "I'm just thinking about what could happen, but I'm sure it will be fine..."
Steam hurried to catch up, using her well-exersiced legs to sprint to join the others. She gave them a cold stare as she passed, eyeing each one and noting down all details.
Violia looks at the others as Steam catches up. The train car's doors open and it looks like they are ready to take passengers. Violia takes a deep breath and sighs. "It looks like we can board now." She says as she gets on the train and finds a place to sit.
Starry sat behind Mat, somewhat confused at the cold stare that Steam had given everyone. She didn't like it whatsoever but decided to keep quiet.
She was a bit confused at Azreal's reply, before giving a level glare to respond, "I was simply admiring your beautiful eyes,"
Mat put his hooves behind his head, not really caring at the stare he got. Wasn't really going to affect him in the slightest.
