Restating my assumptions: First, I am truly not on Earth. Second, I am truly not a human anymore. Third, I am not freaking out sufficiently. Those weren't really assumptions but never mind. I'm coming to like this book though, it really helps clear one's thoughts. I spent most of today roaming around town and getting a hold on walking and running. I've concluded that I was right with my 4chan assumption, it's the one thing everyone here has in common. I have to say, I expected a town built by 4chan to be burning by now, but it's looking surprisingly good. People are working hard and together, there is very little fighting or disagreements. I wonder why. Maybe because being a pony is many people's wish? The chance to start a whole new life, free from all the burden from the previous one? Or maybe it's a more sinister reason...different body means different neurology.
Anyhow, I went to the lab but no one was there so I guess I'll stop by another time. I talked to a lot of people and think I can find my way around now. As some experimentation has shown, I can move objects by concentrating on them through...magic I guess, for lack of better words. But my ability is very...uh, limited. I will need some training to compare to some other unicorns I've seen around. I got some food at the cafeteria of sorts, but I think I'll need to start making money to buy my own food at some point. I wonder what the lab pays. I also wonder: How can there be a lab? I haven't seen any electricity around, not to mention things like chemical reagents or even running water. I'm not even sure if we have medicine, fertilizers or similar commodities around here, I might be able to help with that though.
I've decided to just do for now. Just, exist and walk and talk. I'll have time for an existential crisis when I'm settled. I also adopted the name Lucyne for now, no need to draw unneeded attention.
