So, pretty big thing I'm into which I probably never mentioned is girls walking barefoot. Never really did anything with the theme as it doesn't really work with feral ponies, but now that I know how to draw humans it's likely something I'll be doing from time to time. It'll force me to draw more varied backgrounds and clothing too.
Silver Spoon has always been envious of the CMC and their barefooting antics. She would often see them run around and play without their shoes and it would make her feel really jealous seeing them having fun with their feet out and about. She’s always wants to know how it felt like going around barefooted in public, but she couldn’t at the fear of her BFF Diamond Tiara chastising her for it since she’s supposed to be "above that gross stuff that they do". She knew that DT was right, but it still crossed her mind cause it felt like so much fun and a whole new experience for her.
She arrived at the mall to do some clothes shopping, and she got dropped off at the entrance. Diamond Tiara is away doing some business with her daddy and it was just her all alone. It was just gonna be another boring day shopping until suddenly she had a thought on her mind: This could finally be my chance to see how it’s like being barefooted in public! With the issue of Dianond Tiara gone, a new arose where she would be stared and judged at by the other mallgoers, but the thought didn’t faze her since she practically knew almost all the shop owners around the mall and they likely won’t care that she isn’t wearing shoes. She’ll also likely act nonchalant or her normal attitude when around Diamond Tiara so without hesitation, she removed her shoes and socks and put them in the trash can close to the entrance. Now completely barefooted, she entered the mall.
Walking around the department store, her now exposed soles slapping against the cold linoleum floor bringing a slight shiver up her body, she was starting to like the feeling and now she sees why the CMC loves to do it: it feels nice and liberating! Looking down at her feet, she stared at her pedicured feet with purple toenail polish and didn’t realized how pretty they looked. Why do I hide my feet in tight shoes after I got a really nice pedicure on them? She thought as she continued walking. I should be showing them off more often to show how pretty and better I am than everybody else! Immediately after she looked up, she saw some shoppers looking at her direction and staring down at her feet, but she just continued as if everything’s normal.
She did her duties around the mall as if it was just another regular day: walking into the stores, buying the clothes she likes, (one time passing by the shoe sections staring at the footwear and just shrugging and walking by) browsing around the racks and having some lunch around the cafeteria, all in her barefeet. Her soles and toes feeling the tiled floor around the main hallway and second floor, the carpeted floor of some of the clothing stores, the gray metal steps of the escalator, the steel floor of the elevator and one point where she crossed her legs and feet while seated in the cafeteria enjoying her food. By this point, the soles of her feet have gotten a little but dirty but she didn’t care, she’s gotten used to the sensation and she loves it. I should be barefooted a lot more often, I’m glad I threw away my shoes she thought carrying her shopping bags and continuing on with her shopping, ignoring the repeated stares of the other mallgoers and just walking by with her barefeet.
