A sketch I colored a while back when I hadn't even finished designing all of my next gens. The lack of shadows in the coloring is because I had to color it with my mouse since my old tablet had stopped working.



Sulphur is being shown around the current circus area by one of the performers, Follow Lead.



-----------------------------



Follow Lead: Hello. You must be Sulphur right? Your mother sure talked up a storm about you!



Said the zebra stallion as he aproached the young mare. He had a strange accent that she coudln't really place. It was not at all like Zecora's as she would have expected considering how she was the only other Zebra she had met, yet she knew she had heard it before.



Sulphur: He, yeah... she has a tendancy to do that...



Sulphur responded with a small hint of distaste in her voice.



Sulphur: I assume that you are the one who's supposed to be my guide. "Follow Lead" was it?



Follow Lead: That's right! So if you just follow my lead, I'll show you around the grounds.



His emphasis on the two words made her roll her eyes at his lame attempt at a joke, but did as he asked.



Follow Lead: Up there we have just set up the aerial course for the flyers...



He pointed his hoof into the air as she could see a course constructed out of clouds with a few pegasi flying through, being watched by a very colorfull griffon and another pegasus.

A group of three unicorns suddenly trotted by them, each levitating there own balancing ball. They where all heading for the living wagons parked behind them. Sulphur followed them with her gaze and barely noticed the stallions continuation.



Follow Lead: Those three are our top gymnasts, and this lady over here...



The Zebra was cut of by a voice coming from above them and Sulphur nearly jumped when she looked up. Above them stood one of the tallest creatures she had ever had the pleasure of sharing a conversation



Cloudia: Heya there sugar, names Cloudia. We are all so excited for you to start working here I tell ya!



The tall creature said through gritted teeth as she was in the process of hanging pastel colored garlands around the camp area. Still a bit spooked Sulphur clumsily answered:



Sulphur: Likewise...



Having stepped out of hearing distance of Cloudia the mare quickly whispered to the striped stallion.



Sulphur: What is she?



Follow Lead: What you've never seen a giraffe before?



He said as he smirked. Sulphur, feeling a bit foolish hesitantly said.



Sulphur: We don't really get any in Ponyville... are they common where you come from?



Follow Lead: Well you don't really see them that often on the streets of Trottingham either.

Really stupid and unecesary dialoge but i'm trying to get in the hang of writing again, it's been way to long since I wrote something that can be considered decent ^^''



I mainly just wanted to show of some of the other Circus folks, since they are not all just ponies.



I'm sorry if Sally is coming of as rasist or something, but she's really just bad at talking to others and easily assumes things.
