There's only vegetables and kitchenware. >You buy some apples. You still need to eat. >Then you look at the distance. >That pink pony is bouncing while smiling. >Maybe she knows where to find that rock? >Twilight told you she knows everypony in this town. >... Everypony. Heh. "Hello" >She looks at you and freezes. >In midair. >And slowly drops down. >"..." "..." >"..." "... Hello, again. I need to know if--" >Before you could finish the question, she zapped away. >She managed to evade all the ponies in the market and left your field of view. >She really is a strange pony. >And coming from you, that's something.   >You walk to the castle. >No results about the stone. >"Hello, anon. Twilight is in the lab" says Spike while opening the door for you. "Thanks, Spike" >You knock on the door of the castle laboratory. >You can hear a faint "Come in!. You go inside. >"Oh, hello Anonymous. Glad to see you here. There's something i need you to see" >Twilight was wearing her dark googles and her lab coat. You grab yours, wich is hanging next to you, and proceed to walk to the table. >The castle laboratory is amazingly big. Twilight has several kinds of experiments of different fields there. Magic, biology, engineering, chemistry... >There's a lot of cool science going around. >And you loved science back in your world. >So it's no surprise you and Twilight bonded so quickly. >Even considering the fact that you're a foreign being that recently popped out of nowhere. >"Look, i was trying to emulate your so-called 'transistor' with some available materials. But now it's broken, and i can't seem to find out why". She says while pointing you a table in the corner. >You look at the contraption on the table. >That thing is not broken. >That thing is no more. >There's only a couple fizzed out wires and a circle made out of ashes. "Wow." >Yeah, wow indeed. "But i still can't find the sulphur. How did you do it?" >"Well, i used some gems to see if they--" "WHAT? C'mon, Twilight. You can't just replace stuff and expect it to work the same" >"I know, anon. But all this new technology you talk about... I want to see it working" "Well, the trebuchet worked" >"We promised to never talk about that again. We almost lost the alliance with the gryphons because of it." "But it worked!" >You keep looking at the mess on the table "... There must be some yellow rocks somewhere" >"The gems were yellow" "It's not the same." >"Had you ask everypony at the market?" "I did." >"Wait. Idea. Let's ask Pinkie Pie" "You mean your friend the pink pony? I tried asking her, but she ran away" >"Ran away? That's so not-Pinkie. You must have confused her for another pony." "Pink fur? Pink curly mane? Ballons cutie mark? Bounces around?" >"... Okay, that was Pinkie Pie"   >You and Twilight are now in the main room of the castle >You are sitting in a chair. Twilight is walking around. >"I don't get it" >You recall your first days in Equestria. >Everyone was scared of you. Pinkie Pie must still be frightened. "It's no big deal. I am frightening. A new being." >"Yes, but i managed to be your best friend here despite all that. You know all my other friends" "Yes, i've talked to them. We... Get along" >"Then why Pinkie Pie doesn't? Why does the most friendly pony in all of Equestria can't even look at you?" "I think you're overreacting. I have no qualms about Pinkie not wanting to know me" >"You don't understand, anon. Pinkie Pie wants to be everypony's friend. She makes a party for everypony! For any reason!" "... And yet she hasn't said a word to me. And i'm ok with that." >"..." >"... Maybe i should talk to her." "No no no. Just ask her about the rocks." >"I need to know, anon" "I guess there's no way out of this. Is it?" >Twilight frowns. You know how... Fixated she gets sometimes. "Alright. You check on that, i'll check on the light dispersion experiment" >"Fine, anon. I'll be back in the evening" >And with that settled, you go back to the lab.   >...   >"I'm back. Anonymous" >You are looking through some kind of microscope. It seems light CAN work as a liquid given certain conditions. >Of course, Twilight told you about the weather factory and the "rainbow liquid", but you needed to see it for yourself. >"I talked to Pinkie Pie" >You move the light with a small needle. It's really hard to grasp, but this world is really weird for you >Amazingly weird. >"She knows about the rocks. Says she can provide them for us." >Now you're paying attention "Wait, really?" >"Yes!" "Awesome! When will she have them?" >"As soon as we go to Sugarcube Corner and have some tea with her" >... >... "What??" >"You heard me. Get ready, anon. Come on." "What??" >"You don't want to go out with your lab coat on, do you?" "I mean... Why tea?" >"You don't like tea?" "I MEAN... Sorry, i meant to ask, why do we have to go there and have tea with her?" >"Oh... Well, i asked her why is she afraid of you and she told me she is not. Then i asked her why anon would tell me that and she said she didn't know. And then i asked her if it was okey for anon to come over and she said there was no problem" >You are amazed you could catch all of that >It helps that Twilight likes to lecture about anything as long as there's someone to hear her. >And that someone tends to be you, lately. "... So Pinkie lied?" >"I don't think she lied." "Then i'm the liar" >"I trust you, anon. I mean, that's why you're here" "Then what are you trying to do?" >"I'm TRYING to see with my own eyes what's happening, that's what i'm doing" >Despite you mood, she has a point. >You can't recall being near Pinkie while Twilight was around. >You sticked next to her during parties, while the pink pony danced and yelled. >You understand Twilight. She needs to take a scientific approach. "Understood. Let's go"   >You are now in front of Sugarcube Corner. >Twilight Sparkle is next to you. >You like sweets, but for some reason you find yourself pretty uncomfortable right now. >"Let's go in, anon" "Alright" >Inside, you see some tables and chairs. The counter is at the other side. >You sit. Twilight sits next to you. "So we wait?" >"Pinkie will be here any minute" >Then, a high pitched voice greets you from the stairs. >"Hello" >You turn to see Pinkie Pie, walking slowly towards you. >"Do you want some tea and cupcakes?" >Her voice sounds calming and serious. Unlike the usual screams you hear from afar. >"... Pinkie?" >"Yes, Twilight?" >You see Twilight's face. She's puzzled. >"... Nothing. Yes, please. Anon?" "I would like some tea, too." >"Good. Would you like some cupcakes, too?" "Ermm... Yeah" >"Okey." >And with that, she turns and goes to the kitchen. >"Anon, i can't believe this! She's acting normal" "..." >"I mean, she doesn't act like that when i'm with her. She really behaves different when you're around" "Oh, i see." >At least now she gets it "You saw it. Good. Now let's go and forget about this" >"ANON! We can't leave" "Why?" >"Because one, you still need the rock. Two, i need to know why she acts like this. And three, because that would be rude!" >Right, the rock. >Guess you'll have to wait. >Pinkie is coming back from the kitchen with a tray. >She places the tea cups and the plate with cupcakes and sits at the other side of the table. "Thanks" >You begin to drink and eat. >Twilight munches a cupcake >Pinkie looks in silence. She hasn't touched a thing. >She just looks at you. >You feel nervous >"Soo, Pinkie..." >Thanks for breaking the ice, Twilight >"Anonymous here needs a very special rock. He thinks you might know where to find it" >Wait, didn't she tell her? >"C'mon, anon. Tell her" >You almost choke on your tea. "Well- Yes, i do. We are working on some experiments and we need sulphur. It can usually be found in these funny looking yellow--" >"I'm glad you liked the cupcakes. If you excuse me, i need to go" >With that, Pinkie stood up and went upstairs.   >You are Pinkie Pie >And now you're in your room >You throw yourself face down over the bed. >You can't believe what you did. >You really really like anon. Like, a lot. >But whenever you are in front of him, you just freeze. >You want to hug him tightly, to be near him. >But you can't. >You just run away. >And now he was enjoying your cupcakes, talking with his sweet voice. >You couldn't keep it much longer. You were a second to lift up the table, throw it away and kiss anon. >Instead, you left. >And now you feel so, so ashamed of yourself. >You really want to express your feelings to anon. >But you can't find a way. >... >There must be a way.   >You are anon. >And you are trying to calm a nervous purple horse. "She must feel sick. You don't need to worry" >"Of course i need to worry! She's my friend!" "Do you really want to see her?" >"Anon, if i start to act weird, wouldn't you try to look after me?" "Well, yeah" >"Then i'm going upstairs. Wait for me" >With that, she teleported away >You still don't understand how magic works. >But here it seems to do wonders.   >You are Twilight >And you're in front of your friend's bedroom door. >You are worried about Pinkie. Is she going to transform like last time? >But that other time was only because of a misunderstanding. You and your friends made her a surprise party and she thought you didn't want to be her friends. >There's none of that now. >You knock on the door "Pinkie?" >You open the door. >She's laying on her bed. >At least her hair looks curly. "Pinkie. Is there something wrong?" >No answer "Are you... Sick?" >She moves her head. "Do you need some rest, then? Are you tired?" >She moves her head again. "Please, Pinkie. You don't seem to be--" >"You don't need to worry about me, Twily! I'm fine, really! I'm glad to know you care about me, but i'm super duper fine." >Pinkie just rose, hopped out of the bed and threw the usual word salad over your head. >Now that's more like her >But you can't forget the fact that she was acting weird downstairs. "... Okey, Pinkie. But then why--?" >"Sugar" "... What?" >"I needed to eat candy. So i came here and ate some sweets" "So... You felt--?" >"Like i needed some energy?? Yeah!. Last night i had to do a massive rave party. So i was feeling tired" "That doesn't explain--" >"Of course i was feeling all fine when you came at first this afternoon, but after a while the lack of sleep always gets you. Isn't it?" "... I suppose--" >"So no worries, okay?" "Eh..." >"Pretty please?" "..." >You smile "Alright, Pinkie. I just needed to know if you were fine. That's what friends do." >"Then i surely got myself a good friend!" >She huggged you. "Hehe, thanks. Now remember about the rock" >"Yes, i will Twily. I won't let you down!"   >You are anon >And now Twilight popped right next to you >"It's ok, anon. She is feeling fine" "Really?" >"Yes" "Okey. Shall we go?" >"I think so. I never asked you about the experiment you were looking at" "Oh, that. You see, i needed to see how light and colors can act as liquids, so..." >You keep talking as you leave the store. >Twilight listens to you and points out some details from her vast knowledge. >In the meantime, Pinkie looks at you from her window. >She smiles. >But you don't notice her.   >...   >You are Pinkie Pie >Ah oh wow you are sooo excited. >You worked all night on this. >Well, not all night because you stayed up until very very late and then you went to sleep but you couldn't because you were so excited until you finally slept and then you woke up... >But still. IT'S READY. >And now you're waiting for sweet Nonny to get out of his house, like he uses to. >If you remember correctly, and you're sure you do, he should be having breakfast right now. >That why you're waiting for him outside! >But wait... Is it too much to wait for him right here? >Maybe you should wait further away. >Maybe behind that bush? No, that would be creepy. >Not that you've done it before. >Nope. No way. >Maybe you should walk casually on the street and then look at him and say "Oh, hi Anon. Nice day, isn't it?" >Or maybe you should-- >OH HE IS OPENING THE DOOR. ACT NATURAL. >"*yawn*.... Hello... Pinkie pony, right?" "Oh... Eh-Hi Anonymous! Yes, i am Pinkie Po-- I mean, no i am Pinkie Pie. But... That's.... Okey, hehehehehe!" >"Are you okey? You seem nervous" "Who, me?? Don't be... S-silly." >Wow, it's really hard to stay with the plan. >Why does Nonny have to make you so... Mushy. >"Uuuh, is that a helmet on your head?" "Oh-- Yes, it is. I also have this one... F- F..." >C'mon, Pinkie. Say it. SAYY IIIITTTTT!! "For... You" >"For me? What for?" >Be calm, Pinkie. You need to do this. YOU NEED TO DO THIS. JUST DO IT, PINKIE. JUST-- "sinceyouaskedforsomerocksithoughtthatsinceyouknowawhatrocksyouneeditmightbegoodtolookafterthemyourselfimeaniknowalotaboutrocksbutmaybeiwillbringthewrongrockandyouwillbedissapointedandidon'twantyoutobedissapointedsoidecidedtobringyoutotherocksinsteadandthatmeanswehavetogotomyfamilyrockfarmbutit'stoofarawayandthenexttrainwillarriveinthreeedayssoitwastoomuchtimetowasteandithoughtthat--*GAAAAAAAASSSSSPPP*" >Geez, Pinkie. Breathe. >Breathe. "...." >Calm >"..." >Down   >You are Anon >And now you are at a loss of words >First, you find that pink pony Pinkie Pie in front of your house. >Then, she talks to you. And in a more girly funny-pitched way. Not all formal like yesterday. >And then she spurts more sentences than ever. You swear you've never heard any other pony say that much in a short period of time. >It was something about the rocks, though. So it's better to let that all aside and find out what she meant. >You wait until she stops panting. "... Uhm... Pinkie Pie? I didn't understand. What--?" >"TRIP" "Huh?" >"We will take a *gasp* trip to m-my family rock farm!" "A rock farm? Like, a farm for rocks? Geez, this place really defies everything, isn't it?" >"What?" "Sorry, i mean i'm surprised to hear that. You must understand, i'm not used to your world, and--" >"Does that mean you don't w-wanna come?" >Pinkie now sounds sad. You don't know how she got to that conclusion. "No, of course no--" >"Then let's go!!" >She suddenly blasts a huge smile and throws the helmet at you. >You see the helmet in your arms "Why do i need thiiiiaaaaaaawwwhaaaaaa?????"   >You see Pinkie approaching something in the middle of the street. >WHAT IN THE NAME OF SCIENCE IS THAT? >It looks like a candy-themed sled with some seats and gears. >She quickly hops to the front seat. >You slowly walk to the sled. >It doesn't seem to have any sort of wheels. "Excuse me, Pinkie Pie. How does this machine work?" >"You mean the Pinkiecopter?? It moves with one hundred percent pure Pinkie Power ©, hehe" "... How... Did you make that sound..." >"C'mon, Anon. Hop, hop and away!" ]>You take the back seat. >You wonder how this.. "Pinkie copter" was going to move at all. The only thing that seems to move in this thing are the pedals and the propeler.." >... Wait... "Copter"? >As in "helicopter"? >As in FLYING? >She starts pedaling and as soon as the propeler moves, you both lift off the ground and start moving upwards. >You try to say something, you try to poke Pinkie and tell her that you find very unusual that a propeler moves without any kind of energy transfer from the pedals... >... Or that it's almost impossible for a pony of her size to lift this machine with both their weights on her own. >.. Or that she needs to put some safety belts on the seats. >But you can't do that. >Mostly because you have a crippling fear of flying and both your arms are wrapped around you and grasping the seat.   >You are Pinkie Pie >And now you're heading to your former home. >This is amazing, to are taking Nonny to see your family! >This day can't get any better!! >But is it too soon for him to meet your family? >You haven't even gone on a date together. >Maybe you can consider this a date! >IS THIS A DATE!? >eeep >Okay, Pinkie. Calm down. Don't jump to lovey dovey conclusions. >You need to make Nonny to like you first. >And he won't get to know you if you just pedal all the way to the farm. "Hey Non-- Anon. Wha...?" >You see anon in a weird pose. >He is completely frozen, grabbing the seat with his hands >His eyes closed, teeth clenching. "Oh, no! You feel sick. I didn't ask you if you were feeling well and--" >He starts moving her head. He seems to be saying 'no'. "You're not sick? Then... Are you afraid?" >He quickly nods "OH SORRY I DIDN'T MEAN TO-- We're landing, Anon. Wait a moment" >You steer the Pinkiecopter and land. >You quickly check on him. >He hasn't move, but he seems to be relaxing. "It's okey. We're on safe ground now." >He is still on his seat. >You're starting to feel really bad. >You broke Nonny. "I'm sorry Anon" >You hug him while tears begin to form in your eyes. >You wanted to undo everything you did to him. >You wanted to give him a wonderful day. To spend it with you. >And now you ruined it >"... Pinkie..." "I'm sorry.... If you never want to see me again it's fine. I'll understand" >"PINKIE... Let me go" >You quickly obey. Anon takes some breath and gets out of your Pinkie copter. >It seems you hugged him too tight. >He looks around. You are wiping away your tears and cover your face. >You don't want to hear the next words. >"It's okey, Pinkie. You didn't know. I'm glad you got the message and dropped me down." "..." >... Wait... He didn't scream at you? >He took it well? >Wow. Nonny sure has a temple of steel! How admirable. You wish you had that strength of mind. "I... Thanks..." >"No need to thank me. Just keep me on the ground, if that's okey with you" "... S-Sure..." >Now you're blushing.   >You look at the landscape "W-well, we must b-be a few hours away from t-he farm. Shal w-we walk?" >Anon is still standing. He is looking at your machine. >"You're gonna leave 'this' Here?" "Oh, don't worry about t-the Pinkiecopter. I'll pick it up when i have the time" >"Uuuuhhh... If you say so" >And with that, you both start walking. >You still feel bad about putting Nonny in the skies and not knowing we was afraid of that. "N--" >"..." "Anon, i'm so-" >"Please, stop apologyzing. I'm fine, the ground is on my feet and we're heading to your rock farm. I don't mind some walking." "Oh... Okey, Anon" >... >"But i still need to ask..." "What, Anon? Please, tell me." >You almost knock Anon over with your weight. You are now with your front hooves on his chest. >"Well... I... How does your... Helicopter works?" "Oh, that? Well, it's pretty easy to answer. I made it myself" >You lower yourself and keep walking. "You see, i move the pedals and it flies! I move the steering to control the direction.... And that's it, really." >"..." >Nonny looks confused. He looks cute when he is confused. >"But you need to apply some sort of force to the propeler for it to work. Both of them. And it lifted both of us plus the weight of the copter with only your pedaling" "I think you're overthinking it, Anonymous." >"Overthinking it?? It's just basic knowledge, Pinkie Pie! There must be some way that machine works without magic. You're no unicorn" "Pegasisisisisis fly and they're not unicorns" >"That doesn't answer my questions" "Anon, you've said many times that this world is very different from yours" >"... Wait, how did you know that? We haven't talked at all since this morning" >Oh, shoot! Quick, Pinkie. Think of something before he realizes you follow him in secret! QUICK! "T-Twilight told me" >"Oh... Well, it's true. It IS different." "So, since it's so different, why are you using YOUR logic for MY Pinkiecopter, huh?" >"Well, I..."   >Nonny is now pondering. >It seems you gave a solid argument. >Hope it wasn't rude of you. >You wanted to keep talking to anon. >"Pinkie, you may be right." >Phew. Saved. >"Even when there are some similarities with my world, there must be some laws this universe is based on that doesn't conform with mine" >"I need to talk with Twilight about it. Maybe look at some basic physics books to get a good start" >Twilight Sparkle >She surely spends a lot of time with Nonny. >Of course, when he arrived it was her duty to keep him in a safe place and find out if he was any threat to us. >But he was free to walk around Ponyville now, and yet he keeps visiting Twilight for those "experiments" and "science" things. >Wait. Are you jealous, Pinkie? >No, bad Pinkie. You must not feel jealous about your best friend. >Specially not when you managed to get her drunk and she insisted that Anon was just a friend. >Maybe you could teach Anon about your world. >YES! THAT'S IT! You teach him, he marvels, you spend time together, then you confess your feelings for him, and you will   be a couple and have lots of little foals and be the happiest of mixed-species families! >Okey, maybe you skipped a few steps. But for now, you have a plan! "Look, Anon. There's our farm!"   >You are anon >And in the distance, you see a fence and tons of rocks scattered at the other side. >The all have varying tones of grey and gray, and have many sizes. >Very far away you can spot a mill and some buildings. >Guess rock farms DO exist. >You wonder what they do with them. Do the raise them? Is it like livestock or like plants? What do they feed them? >Or maybe this is just a very peculiar mine. >Pinkie Pie seems happy about arriving to her destination. >And she is bouncing! How cute! >Now that you think of it, this is the first time you get to see her bouncing while you're close to her. >You pass the fence and now get around the rocks of the farm, heading to the buildings. Pinkie skips them while bouncing. >It's good to see that she has started to get comfortable around you. >Impressive. Even after a lift on her hoof-powered helicopter, and some walking, she still has the energy to do that. >This pony is now taking all of your attention. You are very curious about her. >Your thoughts get cut short when all of a sudden something knocks you down.   >That fall sure hurts! >As soon as you open your eyes, you discover that three pitchforks are aiming at your head. >Three mares that look suspiciously like the rocks surrounding you are holding these pitchforks. *GULP* >"What are you?" The three ponies say in unison >"SISTERS! WHAT ARE YOU DOING!" >Wait, sisters? >"Stay out of it, Pinkie!" >"This creature was chasing after you" >"It looks hideous" >"GIRLS! He is a friend of mine" Pinkie says while sweating. "Y-yes..I...." >The three mares now look at you. "... Am?" >You are about to crap your pants. You want to escape. >"Pinkie, what is this thing?" >"This, girls, is a 'hoo-mayn'. He is very friendly and cut-- I mean, he is harmless. Hehehe" >The darkest one looks at you with a terrifying neutral expression. >"Is she saying the thruth, hoo-mayn?" "Yes, of course she is. Please don't hurt me." >The three mares look at each other and nod. >They raise their pitchforks >"I'm sorry, Non-- Anon. I should have sent a letter to my sisters before coming here". She helps you get back on your feet while putting a sad face. "It's fine, really. As long as i get back home in one piece, i can get over this." >You clean off the dust in your clothes. >"So, girls. This is Anonymous. Anonymous, please meet my sisters Marble Pie, Limestone Pie, and Maud Pie" >"Hello", the three of them in unison. >"I thought you said his name was Hoo-Mayn" "Actually, that's my species. I am a human. Like you are ponies." >"So there are more of you?" the one with the light gray mane asks "Yes, where i come from there are billions of us." >"Billions? That's really funny, Mr. Anonymous", the darker one says... Without changing expression. >You wonder how Pinkie can be related to this ponies. >Then again, your mom was a hippie and you were the biggest nerd in town, so you can accept that happening. >"Okey, girls. I was taking anon to my rock collection. Are mom and dad in the house?"   >"Yes. Pinkie. They were making some paperwork. Are you both staying for dinner?" >"Woohhh! Anon, you have to try our family traditional rock pie! It's delicious and crusty!" >"It's also full of rocks" "... Eeehhh i don't... Think i can digest rocks..." >"..." >"..." >"...." >"Don't worry, Anon. I'll bake something for you. Come on, let's go!" "Thanks." >You follow Pinkie to the house that is next to the mill. >Pinkie's sisters are beside you, still holding the pitchforks. >The one with the purple mane still hasn't said a word to you, besides those creepy 'What are you?' and 'Hello' back then. >"..." >"..." >"..." "..." >"You are Anon" She finally speaks. "Uhm... Yeah, That's me." >She looks at you. >You prefer to lower your view and not make a false step. >Your back still hurts from the fall. >It feels like an eternity, but you finally get to the house. >You notice a silo next to it, and a bunch of dried trees around the place. >This place looks bleak. Incredible that a pony that organizes parties was raised here. >"Mom! Dad! I'm here" >Two ponies come out of the house. They look like they are her sisters' parents, alright. >"Oh, Pinkie. Welcome home. So nice to see you here." >"Hello, Diane." The brown stallion says. >She goes and hugs both of them. They still haven't move from the porch. >"And what in the name of Celestia is that?" >"It's a hooman, mother" >"Pinkie says it's no harm" >"He goes by the name 'Anonymous'" >"Oh, i see. Weird creature. Is this some kind of friendship problem you are trying to solve, young lady?" >"No, mommy. He needs something and i brought him here to-- OH how silly of me!" >He now zaps next to you >But then she freezes while standing next to you. >What is happening to her? Is she reverting to her previous state? >You see her face. >She looks like her brain decided to stop working.   >The whole family is now looking at Pinkie. >The one with the purple mare is now approaching her. >Suddenly, she speaks >"M--m--mom, d-d-d-d--dad... This is An-anonymous. Anon... This are m-my mom Cloudy Q-quartz and m-my dad Ign-Igneous Rock!" "Hello" >"..." >This is getting more and more tense. >The stallion squints his eyes. >"Say... Mr. Anonymous..." "Yes, sir?" >"What brings you here to our farm?" "Well, sir... Mr. Pie--- Rock! I'm... Looking for sulphur." >"Sulphur?" "Yes. It's a chemical compound that can be found in--" >"I know what sulphur is, Mr. Anonymous. You don't need to describe it to me" "You do?" >"Where do you think we are? Rocks are our way of life. You're looking for the square-looking ones or the others that look like gems stick together?" >You're so glad to hear the rocks exist! "Any kind will do, sir!" >"Understood. Any other stuff you're seeking?" "Well, not at the moment. My research is far from needing other minerals. We are getting phosphorus from urea." >"You're working with piss?" The one with the light gray mane looks at you, disgusted at the thought. >"You could use some apatite or phosphorite, Mr. Anonymous." The other sister inquires. "Oh, that yould be awesome... I wonder if Twilight has the right equipment to work with it, though" >"Twilight?" >"Yes, you heard that right sis! Smartypants Anon here works with the Princess of Friendship Twilight Sparkle herself!" >They all nod. >"Impressive." The one with the purple mare murmurs. >"Come in, Anon. Let me show you my rock collection" >You follow Pinkie inside the house. Her sisters follow you behind. They kinda look perplexed. >At least they're not carrying the pitchforks anymore. >Why do they need them, anyway? >The house looks like it belongs to another time. >True, all houses in Ponyville look primitive, but this one has less furniture and the walls have a brown-gray tone. >It doesn't feel cozy. It feels old. And threatening.   >"Here, Anon." She opens a door and goes inside. You lower you head and get inside >You seem to be in Pinkie's old room. There are some pictures of her as a filly on the wall and a small bed. >And nothing else. "..." >"Oh, Anon. This place sure brings me fond memories." >You look around. With all the things foals carry back in Ponyville, you wonder how Pinkie managed to have fun in this room. >But oh well, maybe the room was different back then. >"In that spot i used to play with my pet rocks, and in that spot near the corner i used to look at the dust in the air for hours!" >Okey, now you wonder if this whole 'meet the whole insane psycho-killer farm family' was a good idea. >"And behind this door is myy..." >She makes a trumpet sound with her mouth. You chuckle, she manages to make anything silly. >Even opening a door to show y--- >You can't believe it. >She opened a closet full of stones! >Geodes! Fossils! All kinds of minerals! >Geez, you've never seen quartz clusters like this in your world. >After seeing nothing but gems and boulders in Ponyville, this really catches you off guard. >And over there is... >YES! It's a sulphur stone. And it has a wonderful form. Almost a perfect prism. >You're inmersed by all the different mineral you're watching. >"Pinkamena! Can you help me in the kitchen!?" >"COMING MOM. Excuse me, Nonny. I'll--" >You look at the geodes. Some have colors you've never seen before. Purple, blue... And even green! >You can't believe your eyes. Are those pyrite cubes? >"... I mean.... Excuse me... Anon." "Yes, of course. Go help your mom, Pinkie." >You can't get your eyes off the rocks. >Look! This one looks like it was peppered with shiny minerals. >And this fossil looks completely replaced by gems! >What kind of creature this was? >So fascinating. >You hear the door closing. >Must have been Pinkie. >Look at this one! It looks like covered in mold but it's actually-- >You suddenly got grabbed out of the closet and pushed into a chair. >Limestone, Maud and Marble Pie are in front of you.   "Excuse me, what do you think you're doing?" >You try to raise >"SIT!" The three of them say in unison >You comply out of pure instinct. >"So you are Anon, isn't it?" >"The strange creature that lives in Ponyville" >"The one who is so smart" >"And adorable" >"And cute" >"And huggable" >What are they talking about? "Ladies, i don't seem to follo-" >The one with the purple mane puts a hoof on your mouth. >"Pinkie likes to talk, as you've noticed. And since she lives far away from us, she writes many letters" >"So we tend to know much about what happens in her life. And her feelings" >"And since we are her lovely sisters, she trusts us enought to tell us everything" >You hear the sisters as you get more and more nervous. You fear for your life, and begin to wonder if extracting sulphur from raw meat or fertilizer was a better alternative. >The one in front of you finally takes her hoof off. "Look, ladies. I really don't know what you're talk--" >Welp, back to being silenced. >"We really love our sister, Anonymous." >"We take care of each other. We are very close." >"And that's why you will listen to us..." >"If you hurt her, you'll regret it" the three of them say in unison. >"FOREVER" >They are now walking out of the room. >You are still on the chair, in the middle of Pinkie's room. >... "WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON??"   You are now sitting at the table. >It's dinner time, and the whole Pie family is eating. >You look at your plate. >Half a piece of rock pie is in the plate, with a small pink-frosted cupcake beside it. >You look at everyone. >The stallion is looking at you with squinted eyes and a very notable frown. >Pinkie's mom is looking at you very seriously while chewing her rock pie. >Both of the... Grayer sisters are looking at you angrily. >And the one with the purple mane is neutral as always. >Until she looks at you and makes a neck-slice expression with her hoof. >Pinkie is the only one who is smiling. She is really enjoying her rock pie. >You look at your plate again. You take a piece of rock pie and examine it. >The mass looks good, but the filling looks gray and filled with black spots. >"Try it, Anon! It's delicious" >You look. Pinkie is looking at you eagerly while the others remain unchanged.   >You chug the pie in your mouth. >The sound of thousands of rocks hitting your teeth starts to invade your skull. >You beging to chew slowly. >Very slowly. >You can't find any taste whatsoever. >This is by far the most untasty meal you've ever swallowed. >You keep chewing. >Everyone is looking at you, but Pinkie is the only one who seems to be happy about you eating the pie. >You don't want to keep this much longer. >You force your throat and swallow the whole thing. >"So?... Did you l-like it, Anon?" >You look around. >Now all the family minus Pinkie Pie is frowning while looking at you. "It was...." >You guess you won't come alive of this unless you find the right words. "... Fine?" >You grin nervously. >Everyone in the table is now squinting eyes at you. >Well, everyone except Pinkie. "WHOO-HOO! What did i tell you? Congratulations, Anon. You deserve my special strawberry flavored cupcake. I baked it just f-for you!" "T-thanks, Pinkie" >You take a bite of the cupcake. >Wow. This is like a blessing after the curse. >This is a delicious pastry. Pinkie Pie really knows how to bake! >But your stomach is now growling from all that rock intake, so you guess it will hurt a lot later. >"So... Mr. Anonymous..." The stallion proceeds to speak. "Yes, sir?" >"I suppose you won't be able to leave tonight." "Oh, right. Of course. We--" >"We prepared a bed for you in the silo. Pinkie can guide you there." "Oh, thanks si-." >"I expect you don't do anything silly..." >His left eye suddenly started to twitch. >Pinkie's mom is trembling. >The sisters begin to move her hooves up and down. >And Pinkie's ears are moving forward. ".... What." >Then everyone gets back to normal. >"Don't worry about the rain, Mr. Anonymous. The silo can stand it" >Rain? >You look outside of the window. The sky looks clear with a few clouds over it. "... Rain, sir?" >"Yes. It will rain. Now don't do anything funny while in the silo. Understood?" "Ehm, yes sir" >"Okey, Anon. Follow me!"   >You follow Pinkie to the silo. >The wind starts to chill. You hope the silo won't be so cold, considering IT'S A GODDAM SILO! >You get inside. There's a bed and nothing else in the huge tower. >"Anon! Anon! This is where i made my first party!" "Oh, really? What for?" >"For my family, of course. They needed some free time." "Oh.... And how did they took it?" >"They were very happy. We danced and smiled and had a really good time." "Interesting. They don't seem to be the funny type, if i tell you the truth" >"Hehehehe, i've heard that a lot, Anon. But trust me, we are a very happy family and i hope you feel that way once you get t..." >... "... Once you what, Pinkie?" >"Once you get t-t-to know them" >She looks nervous again. She still doesn't look very fond of you. >Maybe she is still scared of you. "Pinkie, don't worry. I don't bite, and i'm sure you will feel different about me over time" >You put a hand over her head and gently care her mane. >"... I-- won't mind if you bite me" "What?" >"I MEAN I KNOW YOU WON'T BITE ME HAHAHAHA LOOK AT THE TIME GOOD NIGHT ANON" >She zaps away. >Now you're alone. >That Pinkie Pie sure is something. >Did she just pull a clock out of nowhere to look at the time? >You wonder if there's a special kind of magic that all ponies can use. >You could make some experiments later to see if you can use that magic too. >Well, at least you'll get your rock. >You take off most of your clothes. You only leave your shirt and your underwear on yourself >This bed is as hard as the ground, it seems. >Bah, is better for your column anyway. >You get in the bed and look at all the space above you >You start to hear drops falling over the top of the silo. >Guess they were right after all. It is raining. >And with the sound of the rain, you sleep.   >You are Pinkie Pie. >And you are looking at the ceiling in your bedroom. >You were supposed to be sleeping hours ago. >But you can't. >You think about everything that happened today to Nonny. >From making him panic in midflight to being thrown down by your sisters. >But he didn't seem to mind, did he? >He was SO happy when you showed him the rocks. >And asked you to stop apologyzing. >You tried to be calm the whole journey, but it wasn't easy. >Specially when you had to introduce him to your parents. >Owwwey, Nonny. Why do you make my insides so... Twisty. >Why can't i be more brave and tell you how i feel? >Why can't i be near you right now? >Maybe if you check on him... >Can you?? >Well, it's raining. And the silo might have some cracks. >It's important to check Nonny. We don't want him to get wet. >You check your surroundings. >You flatten yourself and hide below the bed. >You open your closet's door and check from the inside. >You tip-toe to the living room. >And finally, you get yourself out of the house by "leaping" to a tree outside. >It sure is windy now. And you can hear some thunders. Better get inside the silo quick. >Whew. You made it. >You shake the water out of yourself. >And approach your dear Nonny. >He is in a deep sleep. >He looks so dreamy. He doesn't snore. He just breathes peacefully. >You lost yourself in his face. >You begin to stroke his hair. That makes you feel all warm inside. "Oh, Nonny. You didn't noticed when i called you like that back then..." You whisper. "You silly Anon. So distracted by my pretty rocks". "You know what would be fun, Nonny?" "... If you were distracted by the... "Other things" i have." >You now feel more than just warm. Your whole body is filling with lust. "Nonny, i'm so happy to have helped you. How i wish to always make you happy". >Your private parts feel on fire. You need to put down the fire somehow. >You don't want to wake Nonny up, though. >You slowly touch yourself with your hooves. >Your body is now sweating. You keep looking at anon from the side of the bed. >He still sleeps. >You begin to fondle your slit. >The heat is now all over your being. "O-ooooohhhh... Nonny..." You almost raise your voice. "Y-you... I... Want..." >You are now fiddling with your clit. You can feel the juices slowly dripping down your back legs. "I- I- Neeed y-" >Your fur is now covered in sweat. You imagine yourself all over Nonny. >You imagine his hands over yourself. >You think about the sweet taste of his cock. >Now you are stroking your genitals with great force. You feel drowned in pleasure. "Anoooon. i-" You find it hard to keep your volume down. >You want to scream. >You want to be one with the one beside you. >You want to be Anon's. >You are almost there. "N--n--n--- Non--" >And then... "ANON!" >You finally reach your pick. You feel your whole body squirming. >Your juices are now all over the ground behind you. >You slowly regain your breath. >You open your eyes and find that, despite your scream of pleasure, Nonny is still sleeping. >... >You only wish for him to be happy. >You slowly climb the bed and put yourslef over the blankets, next to him. >You keep stroking his hair. And softly caress his face. "I wonder if you could accept me, Nonny", you whisper. "I want you to show you my world" "I might not be smart as you, but i know things" "I can see and do things most ponies cannot. I remember ancient tales of lore..." "If you could accept me, i could teach you..." >You slowly begin to close your eyes. >You feel a faint sound reaching your mind. >You know that sound. >It's a "song". >The song will start engulfing the place and you will be part of it. >You know you are the main singer. You know what the lyrics will be. >You feel at peace. It's what you want to tell Anon. >But he won't listen to it. >... Because he is still sleeping.   >You are Anon. >And you find yourself in a deep sleep. >Despite the silo being cold, you're warm inside the bed sheets. >You feel happy. You finally got yourself the stone. >It was like those adventures Twilight tells you from time to time. >You had to endure a teaumatic flight and confront some angry family members. But Pinkie Pie helped you from the beggining. >Pinkie Pie... She really has changed from the other day. >You wonder why. >Oh, what is this? >You feel yourself in a void. >This must be a dream. >You notice a faint sound. It slowly gains volume while the void fills with pulses of color. >You let yourself into the dream...   [DREAM SEQUENCE.

"Oh, Nonny..." >"Sister" >You jerk your head to the side and find Maud at the silo entrance. "Maud!" >You quickly jump out of the bed. >"Pinkie, what are you doing?" "Oh, i was... Checking if Anon was okey. You know the silo is very old and--" >"Don't lie, Pinkie" "..." >"You write to us. We know how you feel about Anon" "... Yes, you know. I do..." >"Pinkie" >Maud approaches you and puts a hoof on you back. >"I might not like Anonymous, but if you're happy with him and he doesn't hurt you then it's okey to me. And the rest of our family thinks the same way" "... Thanks, Maud" >"Even then, you still have to tell Anonymous how you feel" "I know, sis. But it's hard" >"It is hard" >She gives you a hug. >"... But you have to do it." >You look at your sister. >You feel so happy of having such a caring pony by your side. >Even if she doesn't express herself much. "Thanks, Maud. I--" >Suddenly, you feel something weird in your body. >Your tail... >Is twitching! >And is not because of what you did earlier! "Maud!" >She looks at you, then at anon, and nods. >You both run to anon and take him off the bed. >You and Maud carry him outside as fast as you can. >It's raining dogs and cats outside. >A loud wind rush passes by the farm. >It rocks the silo. >And a lightning strikes just above it. >The impact rips a hole on the side. >And the silo falls to the side and crumbles apart. >Anon awakes quickly because of the noise and the rain that now falls over him. >"Uhhhm... Whhaaa??" "Oh, Nonny. Don't worry. You're safe now!" >You hug him tight. If it wasn't for you, he could have... >No, don't think about it, Pinkie. He is alive, and he is with you. >... Thanks, Celestia. >The whole family is awake and in front of the door. >"What happened? Are you safe?" "YES WE ARE, MOTHER". >"Let's go inside, Pinkie". "Okey doki, Maudie. Anon, come on. Get up." >"Uuuuuhhh... Okey..." >You help Nonny get up and guide him to the house. >"I heard a thunder striking right above us, Diane! Are you hurt?" "No, dad. I'm fine. Maudie is fine. An Nonny is fine." >"I'm... Confused". Anon looks confused. "Poor Nonny. You see, a lightning bolt struck the silo and knocked it down! PAM! Thanks to my Pinkie sense and Maud's strenght, we got you out of there just in time! Whooosh! And when we got out, the silo went down like CRAAAASSSHHHH!" >"Oh". Anon looks at you. >"Oh". Anon looks outside. >"Ooohhh". Anon looks at Maud. >".... Oh" Anon looks at you and hugs you. >"Thank you, Pinkie. Thank you so much". >Nonny is hugging you, Pinkie! You can feel your body over you. >You are feeling fuzzy. "... Y-you too" >"Huh?" "I MEAN, MAUD TOO. HEHEHEHEHE" >"Oh, right. Maud, thank you so m--" >He get his hug cut short by Maud's hoof. It impacts his chest with mild to moderate force. >"Save the hug, Anonymous. Now let's go to sleep." >"*PANT*...Heh... Heh... Ok" >The rest of the family goes in silence to their rooms. >Anon stands there. >"Uhm... Pinkie?" "Yes, Anon". >"Uhhh, where am i gonna sleep now?" "Well... We c-c-can share my b--" >"MR. ANONYMOUS, COME HERE. YOU CAN USE MY BED" >"Uhhh yes sir!" >Anon runs to your parent's bedroom. >But then he turns. >"Pinkie, i noticed you called me Nonny." >WAIT DID YOU? "Wait, did i?" >"Yes. Fun nickname. I like it." "Oh... W-w-" >"Good night, Pinkie" >Anon leaves. "... Good night, Nonny"   >You are Anon. >And you're waking up in Igneous Rock's bed. >Maybe it's a bed. Maybe it's not. It feels like a cold cube of rock with some sheets on it. >You raise to welcome the new day. >Your body aches with all the action you got yesterday, but you hope today will be a peaceful one. >... Wait. What time is it? >You look at the window. The sun is almost down from the top of the sky. "Is it noon now?" >"Yes, it is" >You jerk to the side and find Maud Pie at the door. "OH Geez, you scared me" >"..." "... So-" >"You can leave. My dad is waiting outside." "... Oh" >She leaves. >You look around. >Where are your clothes? You remember putting your clothes next to... >... To the bed in the silo. "Great" >You have no choice but to leave the room in your undershirt and briefs. >There's no one in the house. >You step outside the house to see if there's anyone there. >You find Igneous Rock, sharpening an axe.   >"Mr. Anonymous. You're a heavy sleeper, i see." "Good morning, sir?" >"Good evening, you might as well say. Here we wake up at sunrise." "Sir, last night--" >"Last night there was a storm that knocked out the silo" >He is passing the axe over a sharpener wheel, throwing small sparks. >"And i don't know how did Diane and Maud ended up inside at that moment, but luckily they got out without a scratch" "Well, me neither. But i got fine, too" >He stares at you. >Then he looks at his axe. >You glance at the rubble where the silo was. Maud is cleaning up the place. >Is difficult to think that you were about to die if it wasn't for Pinkie and her sister. >"Mr. Anonymous..." "Yes, sir?" >"We are a very traditional family, as you might see. Yet Pinkamena... Or Pinkie, as she likes to be called, is a case on its own. Celestia almighty knows that i love her very much, as the rest of my daughters. But in all this years, i have yet to understand her behavior" >He looks at the blade of the axe as he tells you this. You kinda get it, her being so different from the rest of her relatives. >Maud approaches the scene. She carries another axe. >"We work hard to keep each other safe and sound. To have food in our tables and a comfty bed to sleep with" >He calls his bed comfty? >"But at the end of the day, we all fight for our happiness" >Cloudy Quartz and one of Pinkie's sisters (Limestone, it seems?) are coming from the other side of the farm. They are carrying knives. >You notice they are all gathered around the sharpening wheel. They each take turns to sharp their tools. >"Are you with us, so far?"   "Uh, yes sir! The pursut of happiness is something we also do in my world" >"So... Pinkamena Diane also fights for her happiness. She has her way, but in the end she is standing on the same principles" >Everyone stares at you. "... Are you going to say the same thing Pinkie's sisters s--" >An axe is thrown just to the front of your toes. It hits the ground and buries a little by the force of the impact. >You react by skiping back and make a loud girly scream. >"Opss, Sorry. My axe slipped", Maud says without changing expression. As always. >While she goes picking it up, Igneous Rocks continues talking. >"What i'm trying to say, Mr. Anonymous, is that i really..." >He now looks straight into your eyes. >All the ponies are holding their axes and knives. >And they are staring, too. >You suddenly feel something you don't remember feeling before. >"... Really..." >Not even when you woke up last night and found yourself seconds from dying. >"... Really hope..." >This is new... It's... >"... That my daughter is not making a mistake". >It's the feeling of being completely, absolutely, without a single doubt, definitely FREAKING FUCKED. >"HI NONNY!" "WH-AAAAAAA"   >"Wow, Nonny. You sure have a powerful scream. Not as much as mine, though. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH" "..." >"What happens, Nonny?" >You quickly regain composture. Pinkie is next to Marble, and a carriage is now waiting behind them. "..." >You glance at the rest of Pinkie Pie's family. They split up, doing chores all over the farm. "... Pinkie, is there something about you or your family that i should know?" >"What do you mean, Nonny? Don't t-tell me you don't lik-..." >You see her eyes swelling. "No, Pinkie. It's not that... It's just that they..." >You notice Pinkie blushing. She's not looking at your face. >"N...N-Nonny..." >She's staring at your body. "They have been very... How should i put it?... Protectiv-" *THUD*   "..." >"Geez, family. You always let your tools slip!" >"Sorry, Pinkie" >They all gather to pick up their axes and knives, wich suspiciously fell right in front of Anon. >"Diane, here" >Igneous Rock hands her the sulphur rocks. >"Oh! Thanks, Daddy" She gives him a kiss. "You're the best" >"Have a nice trip, my daughter. I wish you well." >"Thanks, dad. Maud, what is that sack for?" >"Is for Anon. He needs some clothes." >"Oh... Okey!" >"Good bye, daughter. Please take care" >"Don't worry, mom. I'll be fine." >Pinkie goes to the carriage while Pinkie's sisters carry you to it. >You don't mind. Neither you did when they put you a rock sack as an overall. >Pinkie's family also didn't mind that you didn't say goodbye to them. >Mostly because you fainted when you saw all the tools and knives in front of you. >"Thanks, sisters. Marble, Limestone. Maud. See you next time!" >"Goodbye, Pinkie", the three said in unison. >The carriage starts leaving the farm. Pinkie waves to her family until they can't be seen. >And now both you and Pinkie Pie head to Ponyville. >But then again, you don't know that yet. >Because you are still passed out.     https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yNsV6Z9Jst0 >You open your eyes. >The first thing you see is a big pair of round blue eyes. >"Hello, Nonny! You surely like to sleep a lot" >You try to remember why she's on top of you, with a huge smile plastered on her face. >You also try to think why the place you are right now looks too small. >And why you seem to be moving. >Then the whole trip to the rock farm appears in your mind. >It gives you a headache just to think about it. >You sit up. Pinkie sits in front of you. "Pinkie, where are we?" >"Oh, Nonny *GIGGLE* We are halfway to Ponyville". "... And why am i wearing a sack?" >"Well, i didn't mind you being with y-your underclothes, but my sisters put it so you don't feel ashamed for your lack of a suit" >Right, your clothes... You will need a new set. >At least it was worth it. You have the sulphur rocks! >... Wait. "Pinkie, the stones!" >"Don't worry about them, Nonny. I have them right here" >She pulls a bag from her mane and gives it to you. >You look inside to find two perfect sulphur prisms. "... Beautiful" >"Wow, you look so happy. THAT MAKES ME EVEN MORE HAPPY" "Thanks, Pinkie. I couldn't have got them without you" >"T-thanks, Nonny". >She plays with her hair while you examine the rocks.   >"So... Nonny" "Tell me, Pinkie" >"Why do you need those rocks, anyways?" "Well, it's a little hard to explain--" >"I can try!" She almost jumps from her seat. "Okey, okey. Pinkie. Since you insist". >She claps her hoofs while grinning. "With this rocks's powder, and after some processing, i will be able to make some neat devices. Then, with the phosphorus and cooper i already have, i will be able to make a transistor!" >"A trans-what?" "A transistor, Pinkie. In my world, all our technology is based around transistors" >"Oooooohhhhh" "If i make it work, i will be able to make a lot of different things. New inventions and machines you can't even imagine! Machines that   will give everyone in this world an easier life! And maybe find a way back to my world!" >"... Back to your world?" "Yes, Pinkie. Of course there is a long way for that. But with the help of our friend Twilight i know we will succeed" >"Oh... I see..." >She looks outside with a serious expression.   >It's true. You have adapted quite well to the ponies. Twilight, being so fascinated with the things you told her from your world,   decided to have you as a lab partner. You have food and shelter thanks to her. >And once she proclaimed you as "mostly harmless", everyone became acustomed to your presence. >But you still miss your world. >Even taking into account that your very few relatives don't talk to you often. >Even considering your friends were assholes. >You can say it's a force of habit. >And since you appeared here, there might as well be a way back. "I think if i try to discover how i got here, maybe i can find my way back, don't you think?" >You see Pinkie again. She is still looking outside. >It doesn't seem she heard you. >You think why. Maybe she couldn't understand what you were talking and she was just replying because of good manners. >She made a great effort to help you, after all. >You may as well say that she is your new friend. >Wait. Maybe it's because you said you want to leave and she will lose you as a friend. >Twilight said she cares a lot for her friends. "..." >Now that you think about it, what will happen with Twilight and Pinkie once you come back. Will there be a way to talk to them, to keep in touch. To make a visit, perhaps? >You are the first of your kind coming here. That means the probabilities of establishing a permanent or frequent link between both worlds is almost nill. >That will surely means 'bye' forever.   >You look at Pinkie. >She turns to you with a small smile. >"Well, if you say there's a long way for that, then that means we have to make the best of your time here. Don't you think?" "..." >You feel somewhat relieved for that reply. "Yes, Pinkie. We sure will." >Then she begins to mumble a melody. >You rest your head on your arm while you see the landscape. >"La la la la la la la la" >The horses carrying you and Pinkie also begin to sing the melody. >It's very catchy. >You can't wait to show the rocks to Twilight and begin with the experiments. >But you also want to spend more time with Pinkie. >Maybe get to know her more. >"La la la la la la la la" >You are very curious about this mare.   >You both arrive to Ponyville. >After saying goodbye to Pinkie, you walk to the Castle. "Hello, Spike" >"Hi, Anon. Didn't see you yester..." "I was out. Is Twilight in the library?" >You notice that Spike is lowering his head. >"..." >Ans suddenly he burst out laughing. >"HAHAHAHA. Anon, what kind of costume is that? HAHAHAHAHA" >OH, CRAP. YOU FORGOT YOU'RE WEARING A SACK NOW. ".... Spike... Twilight?" >"HAHAHAHAHA.... OH WOW... HEHE... She's in the lib... librarAHAHAHAHAH" "Thanks, Spike" >You enter the castle while Spike is on the floor holding his stomach. >He is now throwing tears because he is laughing too much. >You don't find this funny at all. >You head to the library >It's quiet as always. "Twilight?" >"Anon, over here" >You look a big pile of books. But as you approach it, you hear another voice. >"Is it 'Anon' the creature you've been working with?" >"Oh, yes. You'll be amazed! He knows a lot. And he is trying to show me his world's top of the notch technology"   >You see Twilight next to another mare. >She is wearing a thick black sweater and a pair of glasses. "Ehhh... Hello." >She looks at you and then at Twilight. >"Is he a cynic?" >"What do you mea-- Anon, why are you wearing a sack?" "Well, my clothes were destroyed. Big accident. I'll put my lab coat later. But i have the rocks!" >"Oh, great! I already isolated the germanium and... Oh, silly me, where are my manners! Anonymous, please meet my old friend Moondancer!" >"Hello, Anonymous" >"She came from Canterlot to do some research, but i think she would help us a lot in our experiments" "Oh, perfect! We could certainly use some help" >"What kind of research are you working on?" "Mineral quemistry. Purification of diverse elements. Then, we will use them for making electronic devices." >"Electronic? Don't you mean electric? I have studied state of the art electric machines based on vacuum tubes. There's a team who's working on a three-pin vacuum tube that can work as a signal amplifier" "Well, Miss Moondancer. If you let me explain, you will see that here in the little town of Ponyville we will make something thousands of times better than those vacuum tubes you talk about"   >You spend hours in the lab talking to Moondancer about the basics of electronics and the impact it can have in Equestria. >She listens to you and then agrees to help you on your research. >The three of you are now mounting the components in an hellium-filled room with magic. >Well, Twilight and Moondancer are doing that. You can only watch for now. >"So, Anon". "Tell me, Twilight" >"How did you get the rocks?" "Oh, well it wasn't easy. But guess who helped me get them?" >".. Rarity?" "What? Rarity? Twilight, you're not even trying!" >"I'm sorry, Anon. I'm busy making this really tiny box as per your instructions." "Oh, sorry. Well, Pinkie Pie helped me" >"Oh! Weird" >"Why is it weird?" >"Oh, you see. Pinkie seems to be scared of Anon" >Moondancer glances at you. >"He doesn't look scary at all" >"I know! He's... Mostly harmless!" "That's what my file says" >"You mean the essay Twilight wrote about you? I read it. You must understand, your very existence is an unresolved enigma" "I know. I want to see if i can make a way back to my world" >"Highly unlikely. But not impossible". >"I think it's ready" >Twilight floats the box and put it in the exit chamber. She passes a hoof on her front. >"Anon, look! Do you think it will work?" >You go pick up the transistor >It looks like a small ball of dried mud with wires sticking out of it, but it makes you proud. >Thanks to your skills and knowledge, and the help of your friend and her friend, you were able to make it. "I'm positive, Twilight! We can test it now!"   >A full 10 seconds after the test, you remove your safety googles. >Twilight and Moondancer follow suit. >Then you look at each other. You are all covered in black ashes and have the googles marked in your face. ".. Strange" >"More like 'failed'" >"Don't be an ass, Moondancer. We must go back to the blackboard and see if we mised something" "But the theory is flawless! Are you sure there were no traces of other minerals in the germanium?" >"I did, as per your anotations!" >"I'll go check if we have books about mineral samplings" >"Bookshelf 25, third row. Anon, we can try again. Don't worry." "We were so close. Twilight" >"I know, Anon. Why don't you go get dome sleep? It's late and you look tired." "True. And i also need to see if Rarity can make me a new suit" >"She'll be glad to do it. Tell her i said hi." >"Twilight! Shall we read about electrochemistry, too!?" >"Good call, i guess we have an all-nighter!" >You all leave the lab. Twilight goes to the library while you go back home. >You will ask Rarity later. You feel let down. >You only want to sleep and try again tomorrow.   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E3zbRnWEhdg >You are Pinkie Pie >And it's been forever since that trip with your beautiful Anon. >Well, it's not forever because it was three days ago and Anon it's not yours yet, but still... >You just want to spend more time with him >But this time you don't have any excuse to go! >This is just AAAWWWFUUUULLL... >You throw your face over the counter. >"What's wrong, Pinkie?" "Nothing, Scootaloo. Enjoying your pie?" >"Yes, it's delicious." "..." >Normally, you would beam a smile and tell her about how you took special care of making the filling. >But not today. You keep your head over the counter and let time go by. >A new costumer arrives >"Oh, Pinkie Pie. What are you doing in such a mopey position?" >"Hi, Pinkie Pi- OH hi Scootaloo!" >"Hi Sweetie Belle" "Hello, Rarity and Sweetie Belle" >"My, you sound... How shall i put it... So not you? Busy day at work, perhaps?" >You raise your head to look at the sisters. "... Sorta" >"Well, i can understand. I have... Oh, right. Sweetie! What do you want?" >"I want the Strawberry Cake, please" >"Ask for the Apple Pie, Sweetie Belle! It's delicious" >"Oh, thanks Scootaloo... Well, i'll have the pie instead" >You get yourself off the counter and dully take a slice of pie and serve it. "Here. Enjoy it." >"Thanks, Pinkie pie!" >She goes to talk with Scootaloo while Rarity looks concerned at your plain mood. >"Oh, dear. You certainly ARE tired!" >You look at Rarity >How nice of her to care about you >But you really don't want to talk about your problem with Anon >Specially to her, the "lady of romance", she claims to be "I'll get better with some rest" >"Oh yes, of course. Nothing like a good sleep to help regain your energies. It has helped me a lot with this work i'm doing for Anonymous" >You perk your ears "... Anonymous?" >"Yes, dear. You see, he showed up a while ago with a shirt and some pants. He is very prudish about his body, it seems." >Your eyes begin to focus on her >"And he asked me to make some suits for him, like the one he used to wear" "I see..." >"Would you believe me that when i asked him how he lost his suit he told me it was destroyed?" "Oh... He said that?" >"Yes, but he didn't go into details. Let me tell you darling, it's been a real challenge to make clothes for a non-pony, specially this completely foreign creature. I spent a whole day thinking about the assembly..." "Did he tell you something else?" >She is now looking curiously at you. "I mean... About..." >"My, you seem very interested in Anonymous. Is there somethi--" "I was curious, that's all. This day has been so busy and boring because i haven't gone out in days and your story is so interesting so please tell me more please?" >"..." >Rarity is now confused >At least "confused" is better than "intriguing" >"Well... I... I remember him telling me that he was sad because his experiments weren't working" "U huh..." >"He began to say all this weird words that only Twilight understand. But he was tired and frustrated, i could see that" "How sad" >"Indeed, dear. But he was determined. He wanted to try again" "I wonder how that go" >"Well, he hasn't come to my store since. So i suppose he is still busy." "U huh..." >Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo bring their empty plates. >"Thanks for the pie!" "Well, i'm very glad you like it" >You smile at them >"Oh, look. Pinkie is not bored anymore!" >"Rarity, you fixed Pinkie Pie!" >"What?? Oh, no no... But i have an idea of who might fix her for good..." >She glares at you with a mischievous smile >Oh, no. She noticed! >THINK PINKIE, THINK OF AN EVASION. QUICK! "Yes, Sweetie. I feed on stories. Rarity has told me a story and i feel better. Do you have a story for me?" >Everyone is looking at you in confusion. >You just grin >"Well... We..." >"Oh, i know! How about that day we tried to be veterinarians and--" >"Sorry to cut your story short Sweetie, but we have to go now" >"Really? Whyy?" >"Don't worry, Sweetie Belle. I'll tell her the story" >"Thanks, Scootaloo" >"Okey, here are the bits of the pie. Goodbye, Pinkie" >"Goodbye, Pinkie" "See you next time!" >Rarity and Sweetie Belle leave through the door, but Rarity turns around, sticks in her head and winks. >"And don't you think that i'll leave this unexplained!" >Shoot!     >After some listening to Scootaloo and making some cakes in advance, you get early from work and go to Twilight's Castle. >You bring a tray of strawberry cupcakes >You know Anon likes them >That will help him get better! >And Twilight can eat some, too. *KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK* >A very grumpy Spike opens the door "Ugg... Hello Pinkie Pie" "Oh, Spike. You look..." >"Angry? I haven't sleep well. Those guys over there are--" >You hear a loud explosion coming from the lab. "Wow, are they making fireworks?" >"I wish! They make those explosions all day and night... I just *YAWN*" "Poor Spikey. Here!" >You give Spike a cupcake. >"Oh, thanks Pinkie!" >He goes to the kitchen while you go to the lab. >You can hear murmurs from it >"... Are you sure using argon will help this?..." >"I'm not sure we got the appropiate potential..." >"... Let's try sample number 87!" >As you enter the lab, these murmurs become srceams >"YOU ARE MAKING US WORK ON SOMETHING THAT IS USELESS!" >"BUT YOUR BOOKS SUPPORT THIS THEORY! HOW CAN I BE WRONG??" >"THIS IS ONLY A WASTE OF TIME AND YOU KNOW IT!!!" >You finally see two angry, umkept mares and one very very frustrated sleep-deprived Nonny "Umm... He-" >"WHAT??", the three say in unison while looking at you   >You feel a little scared, but their faces are so hilarious that you forget about that inmediatly "Hehe, i brought cupcakes for you" >"Oh... It's Pinkie Pie" >"Pinkie Pie" >"Pinkie Pie" >They look at your tray, then go back to work >"Put them on the table, Pinkie", Twilight says almost in a trance >As you put them where Twilight said, you look round you. >There is a whiteboard with lots of numbers and letters and signs >There are lots of weirdly shaped spheres on a corner. They are all broken or molten. >There's another one inside a glass chamber. Twilight is levitating it and putting some wires on it. >Moondancer is reading some books. >And your poor Nonny is sitting on a chair, rubbing his temples. >You take a cupcake and give it to him. >"Pinkie, thanks but i'm not hungry" "Yes you are. Nonny" >"No, i'm-" "Please?" >You give him the best "Eat this cupcake that i made for you so you feel better" face. >Anon looks at you, then at the cupcake... >...   >He bites it. >You want to celebrate and hug him until he asks you to stop, but you prefer to stay there. >Because he is now enjoying the cupcake >".... Thumks" "I knew you were hungry, Nonny" >Wait! IDEA! Let's try to help Nonny. You will make him happy, then he will go to sleep! >He could really use some sleep >... And you could join him in b-- "So, Anon. What are you three doing?" >"... Huh? Oh, remember the transistor?" "Yes, i do. You told me about it on our trip back" >"Your trip?", Twilight looks at Anon >"Yes, we took a trip to her family farm so we could obtains the Sulphur" >"You didn't tell me that" >"Well, i did tell you that she helped me get the rocks" >"I mean, yes you did, but--" >"Can we please stop talking about trivial stuff and focus on how to make this work?" >Moondancer is now giving Anon some papers and pointing at the chamber. >"Let's see if that one can make the appropiate gain. I triple checked the amout of Germanium" >You see the three scientist going back to their bussiness. >And then you see the whiteboard. >Then at Twilight >Then at the transistor >Then at Anon   >And your brain is now doing that thing >It makes you feel all strange, like a lot of ants are invading the inside of your head. >Now you see tons of little squares >They divide, then they go away >You hear Twilight's voice echoing from afar >"Anon is from another world... World... World..." >You swim through a sea of triangles while Anon keeps repeating "World" over and over >"WorldWorldWorldWorldWorldWorldWorldWorldWorld" >Now you feel green while you touch the clay sphere that is now your head. >"Technology!" You hear from afar. >It suddenly pops out. >You take a deep breath and say   "MAGIC!" >"... Huh?", Twilight says. >"Magic?", Anon replies. "Yes, the transistor doesn't work because you are using magic to assemble it. You must do it whithout magic for it to work" >"..." >"..." >"... What?" >Then Moondancer jerks up >"Wait!" >And runs out of the lab >Anon is still trying to figure out what you just said >"... I don't get it, Pinkie. There shouldn't..." >"Yeah, what Anon says, Pinkie. Magic does not interfere chemically with any substance" >"But it leaves traces!" >Moondancer shouts, now bringing another book with her >She quickly flip through the pages >"Here! Magic theory III, page 137. 'After an object has been affected by a spell, being it for transporting or modifying it, it will have an amount of detectable magic after the spell wears out, wich can be calculated in relation to the size and shape of the object and the type and level of the spell it was casted upon it'" >Twilight's pupils go wide. >"Of course! And anypony who passes magic theory knows that magic can be used to make..." >"ELECTRICITY!", both mare say with glee.   >You grin. It seems you were right. >"So... That means--" >"It means we are making thing explode because of magic, Anonymous! Now we have to assemble your transistor without any magic and it will work!" >"So.... That means... Making another chamber?" >"Yes!" >"... And then we will have a working transistor..." >"Yes!" >Then, Anon makes a sigh and relaxes. >"And here i was considering i was wrong all along!... Oh, i feel so relieved!" >You are now filled with joy. Anon is happy... Again! >"... I could really use some sleep right now" "Oh! Why don't we go to your place and--" >Everyone is looking at you "... I mean, Why don't you go to your place so you can get some sleep, then? I'll... G-go with you" >Anon ponders >"Well, i don't see any problem with that. Let's call it a day, shall we?" >"Well, some rest will make us well, don't you think Moondancer?" >"... Maybe.", she deadpans. >"Okey, then. Shall we go, Pinkie?" >The way he asks you out while he stands up fills you with joy and other feelings that are really funny and addicting >"oh, Nonny..." >"Something wrong, Pinkie Pie?", Moondancer says while taking off her lab coat "What? No! I mean, yes! I m--m--- let's go, A-anon"
