>After a long wait it was finally here >You weren't entirely sure how such an item ended up in the Everfree™ product catalog >But with any guess it probably got to Equestria the same way you did >Some sort of freak accident >Yet that didn't matter now, with the box now in your grasp you were ready to dig in and claim a piece of home >Plus, it might be pretty neato to show ponies some Earth 'magic' >At least assuming the thing even works >If you're going to open it you might as well do it right >Moseying around the Castle you hunt for a pointy object to undo the tape that seals your treasure >Perhaps a sword carried by a guard? >Nope >Pick-pocketing isn't as easy as Skyrim made it look >That was a retarded thing to do anyways >But, ah, there should be a knife or two in the kitchen >Peering into the room which is the source of all that is delectable, you see Moon Horse mulling over some recipes with a chef >Probably preparing for some fancy event   >Doing your best to not be a disturbance you try to sneak your way in >Opening a drawer and fumbling around for a knife, a spoon happens its way to the floor >CLINK >Cover blown >Luna turns around and gives you 'a look' "Well, uh, sorry. I didn't know you'd be busy here." >You find a knife and set it upon the counter >"It is of no worry." >Scanning you over, her eyes quickly lock with the box under your arm >"Pray tell the contents of the package, Anonymous." >How to explain that >You can't really "It's a computer. A thing from... home." >Now curious, she makes her way over to you >Bearing a quizzical look, "Computer?" >You set the box upon the counter and undo the first bit of tape "It would probably be easier just to show you." >Undoing the rest of the package you slide the machine out of its prison >It's a little beat up, but it's still a decent laptop >Opening it up you are relieved to find the screen is not damaged in any major way >Some minor scratches, but it's negligible >"We have never seen such an object. Is it much like a book?" >Not really sure how to answer that "Well... sorta, sometimes... it depends on what you're doing." >She still looks pretty confused >Probably raised more questions than answers with that comment >Pressing the power button and continuing to inspect the device in your hands, you find that it is incredibly light weight >No battery, well that explains the weight >Miraculously, the computer still begins to boot up "Ahhhh", you exhale a sigh of relief >Fuckin' magic an' shit >"Is something wrong?" >She brings her fore-hooves up onto the table-top and makes a little pout "Everything is better than great!" >Her disposition turns around as the desktop loads up >"Stories of such magic windows have been told, yet it was our belief they were false rumors."   >Moon Princess motions for the chef to leave >And he obliges >Looking down at the task bar something truly exciting becomes noticeable >Full wifi with internet connection >Fuckin' magic an' shit "It's pretty magical alright!" >You could almost jump for joy >In fact, you do >Careful anon, if you don't contain yourself you might drop all your spaghetti >But if any dropping of spaghetti is to be done this is the right room to do it in >Nighty levitates the computer before her and proceeds to examine it >"Will we be learning how to use this device?" >Might as well teach her >It would be nice to share a piece of Earth with somepony >Especially somepony that would be around to know about it long after you're gone >It almost makes you want to cry "I'd really love to." >Squeeing with delight, she orients the computer in the same manner one would a book to be read >And takes hold of it in her hooves >Awww, cute "Haha, not quite like that." >Taking the device from her possession, you place it properly before you >You place your fingers on the keyboard "These are called keys.", dear Celestia, this is going to be like teaching a toddler >She lowers her head to inspect them >Taking in the Latin alphabet >Raising an eyebrow and looking to you, "But Anonymous, these do not look as if they are made to open any doors." >Oh, for the love of... "That's just a name, don't worry about it. Here, I'll show you how to use the web." >"Spiders are involved now? What type of magic is this?" >CHOOSE BETTER WORDS, DUMBASS >"Ah, no. Not spiders... By web I mean internet... I-errr, it's like a library, but in the magic screen." >Sure, close enough >"Oh, we understand." >Good "Watch what keys I press very closely, and observe how the..." >Monitor or screen isn't quite the right choice of words "... window reacts." >You select the browser using the arrow keys and hit enter >Her eyes are glued to your every action   >Attentive to every little detail >Hopefully things would not need to be demonstrated twice >With the browser now open, you make your way to the search bar >This is where the real fun begins >Snapping your head around, you face her "Give me the name of a topic, an item, or something." >Her lower lip quivers in panic, she bites it in restraint >"We... errr... Moon." >Very creative >Should have just known she'd say that >You type in her request and pull up the Wiki page >And slide the computer in front of her >Lastly, you quickly demonstrate scrolling through the page with the arrow keys "Enjoy." >She looks incredibly troubled >"This is not our Moon!? The window lies!" >Right... >Earth universe things "That's my Moon. Everything you see on the window is from my world, Luna." >Her mouth takes on a funny expression and she jolts in place a little >"Hahahaaa..." >Not too sure if that's a negative or positive reaction >Her being a weirdo and all >But Luna is all smiles now >"We shall indulge ourselves in this topic later." >She raises her hooves up and does her best to imitate your methodical actions >'5UDGT8ET5E5 FRGU' right into the search bar >Excellent >Hooves aren't really made for human tech, that much is clear >You could just remind her to use her magic >But it would be much more adorable to watch a pony try to type >Yes, go with the typing pony idea >It's flawless   "Like this." >You take her front hooves in your hands >Carefully adjusting her posture "Just use the tips of your hoovsies." >A little giggle erupts from her >You guide her hooves to the backspace key to clear the mess of a search entry >Then you carefully move her hooves around the keyboard, making a new search request >The little click-clacks of her guided actions melodically narrating your combined efforts "S... U... N..." >enter >"The sun." >You release her from your grasp to give a thumbs up "Very good, what a good learner you are, Lulu. Amazing." >She gleefully smiles in acceptance of your childish, very sarcastic, compliment >"We think we can handle ourselves now." Giving her a quick pat on the back, "Awesome, knock yourselves out; but just be gentle with it." >You make your way out of the room, the little pitter-patter of careful, well placed, slow taps fading >For once, you're confident that you have done some good in Equestria   =   >A violent knock at the door awakes you >What time is it? >Looking out the window, it must be like 3 in the morning "Whaaaattt?" >You groggily rub your eyes as you sit up in bed >"Anonymous, this matter is urgent!" >It's Day Horse "Yeah, yeah. I'm sure it is Sunny-C." >Slowly you make your way to the door >Opening it to find a disheveled Celestia "What could be so important that you'd wake me up this early in the morning", a yawn interrupts, "It's like three AM." >Celestia takes on a most unruly expression >A kind of face that is on the boundary between panicked tears or manic laughter "That's the problem Anon, it's eleven in the morning." >It takes a moment for that to sink in "Oh shiiiiiit." >Did you say that out loud? >Yes >"It's Luna!", real suprise there, "She said something about 'a great flame war that would be won before the nights end' and... something about a bee?" >You've never seen Sunny so distraught >"But that's not the worst of it, she now thinks there is a way to get the sun and moon to move on their own and that it can be used to create 'more free time for the internet'. She's really not well." >You try your best to contain an illicit chuckle "I'll see what I can do about it."   >Having made your way to the domain of Moon Horse you take a rap at the door >"Be gone, we are very busy!" >Doesn't matter >Going in anyways "That's a shame!" >Attempting to force the door open you meet some resistance >A chair barricading the entrance "Really, you need to open up." >A blue glow overtakes the door and you here the chair slide away >"Oh, greetings Anonymous. We have done so much with your internet machine!" >Staring into the room you find a mess >Luna's mane is a train-wreck >Spilled cup of coffee on the floor "Greeeaat... I really think I should get the computer back now..." >Having made your way to the domain of Moon Horse you take a rap at the door >"Be gone, we are very busy!" >Doesn't matter >Going in anyways "That's a shame!" >Attempting to force the door open you meet some resistance >A chair barricading the entrance >And all you can hear is the slow paced 'tap, tap, tap, tap...' "Really, you need to open up." >A blue glow overtakes the door and you here the chair slide away >"Oh, greetings Anonymous. We have done so much with your internet machine!" >Staring into the room you find a mess >She's lying on her bed >Face deep in internet-land >Bed sheets tossed everywhere >Mane is a train-wreck >Spilled cup of coffee on the floor >True picture of health, really "Greeeaat... I really think I should get the computer back now..." >Walking over, you take the machine into your hands >Her pupils widen and you are confronted with 'the pouty-face' >"Nay, Anonymous! Our adventure has just started, and we have so many questions." >Quickly she leaps upon you , magic-ing the computer from your hands "Oooof!" >You rub the back of your head >Those marble floors hurt >Now pinned to the stone beneath you, the barrage begins:   >"How do you get your sun and moon to move?" >"Why isn't our Equestria listed as a shipping location on Amazon?" >"Where can we download more RAM?" >"Who is this 4chan guy?" >"How many powers of ten is in a NiggaWatt?" >"Should we delete system 32?" >"We read of the Holocaust on the Wikipedia, but how is it that your Hitler did nothing wrong?" >"How does one get cookies to come out of the internet?" >"How does a pony not be a 'newfag'?" >"Can we make a Hubble?"   >And the list goes on >Maybe ponies+internet wasn't such a good idea after all
