The room is wall to wall with small colorful equines. >The girl sitting on the floor is wearing a fedora, scarf, white shirt, and blue jeans >she's playing with several figurines >You spend several moments taking in the room >"So are you my next door neighbor? The one playing the sad music?" "That would be me, Seamus." >"I'm Emily." >She gets up and enthusiastically shakes your hand >"Oh it's wonderful to make friends. Here, have a pony." >She hands you a grey figure holding a cello. >"That's Octavia. She's a house musician for Princess Celestia." "She plays the cello with magic?" >"No silly *giggle*, just with her hooves. She's an earth pony. They can't use magic." >Fascinating >You inspect the pony for a few moments and put it in your pocket. "So you collect My Little Pony merch?" >"Yeah, when I'm not watching the show, writing fics, arguing about the show online, or drawing pony art." "You really like ponies, don't you?" >"It's the only thing I've ever been good at." >The awkwardness is heavy and permeating >She sees you're nervous and adds >"Are you going to the party tonight?" "Is that the only thing to do tonight? You're the fourth person to ask me." >"I guess so. This is college after all. I'm going over with my brother Conrad." "Conrad is your brother? I met him earlier." >"Yeah but you wouldn't know it. Dude has no respect for my craft." >Man doesn't like My Little Pony. Film at 11. "As much as I enjoy hating everything that regular people like, I guess I'll go." >"Sweet! We'll come get you when we go." "Cool, I'm gonna go wander for a bit." >As you leave her room, you see a girl carrying a milk crate full of books >As she opens the door, one falls off the top of the stack >you rush to grab it for her as she closes the door >House of Leaves >you knock on the door "Hey, you dropped your book." >she opens it >the ghost of David Foster Wallace appears >You hand her the book >she scowls at you >"Have you ever read it?" "House of Leaves? NO, but I have the companion album by Poe. I'm Seamus by the way." >"Read it. Come back to me when you're done." "Uh okay. Unrelated question, when do you go on?" >she stares "I mean the band, when do you go on? You're with the E Street Band right?" >more staring "YOUR BANDANNA. MAKES YOU LOOK LIKE. THE GUITARIST. FROM THE E STREET BAND. I AM MAKING FUN OF YOU!" >nothing "Okay, cool, well I'm gonna go read this. Your name was?" >door slams "Yeah, I am smooth as fuck." >walk back to your room >start reading House of Leaves >you hear Conrad next door >You get up and examine yourself in the mirror >plaid shirt, corduroy pants >could be worse >walk out and run into Conrad along with a few other people you haven't met >"You coming to the par-tay bro." "Provided you don't do that again, sure." >"Right." "So are we ready to head over?" >"Got one more guy coming" >Suddenly, voice appears behind you >"Dr. Conrad, I'm CIA" >oh good lord Emily chimes in >"He wasn't alone." >Not you too >a flood of spaghetti rushes past you as they complete the scene >"Lotta loyalty for a hired gun." >new guy points a finger gun at you "Or perhaps he's wonder why you would shoot a man before throwing him out of a plane." >you put zero effort into the line >"Okay, he's cool. I'm Trevor." "Seamus." >you shake hands as the group moves towards the stairs. >you get outside and start walking towards Red Dorm >When you get close, you see two figures standing on the doorsteps >you remember the girl telling you about a password, but you cant remember what it is >walking up, one of the figures wearing a wrinkles black suit stops the group >"Answer, and the party is yours to attend." >what was that password? >you look the man over and see something red on his arm >a red arm band >"How many lives were lost in the Holocaust." >the group freezes >god fucking dammit
