first chapter: [video]

[studere.livejournal.com]

[ The video feed turns on to a rather nervous-looking girl in her late teens, though that nervousness is momentarily replaced by a grin. After all, she finally figured out how to work this thing properly. Figuring something out is always something worth celebrating, at least for Twilight Sparkle.

Still, her somber expression returns. ] I wanted to thank everypony who helped me out when we all first arrived. I've gotten much better at walking since then! Really. [ Because obviously they won't believe her unless she adds in that "really." ]

But... [ And this is really where she looks worried again... ] has anypony been outside today? There's clouds out there, and I am one-hundred percent certain nopony put them there. They're even moving all on their own...!

But nopony else has even mentioned it! Don't you all find this strange?!

[ Twilight bites her bottom lip for a moment, but presses on. ] It's strange enough that the sun and moon can rise without Princess Celestia or Princess Luna, but... do you suppose the patron gods are doing all of it? Raising the sun, and the moon, and moving the clouds... creating the weather...?

[ And finally, a large sigh. ] Really, this is such a strange place.

Like I said. Unless you find some friends, or wait until Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo get here--Yer just gonna have to be stuck with us until we big ponies find out what's goin' on.

This ain't Ponyville no more! Who knows what could happen in a place where the sun rises on its own for lands sake!

Fine... [she'll prove herself!!!!!!!! get walk about privileges....]

Twilight said them God ponies probably raise the sun, so it's not really that different.

And are you forgettin' that not everyone here is a pony to start with? Don't try and change my mind when it's already done and made up!

I'm not tryin' to change you're mind, I'm just sayin' what I'm thinkin'!

'Sides, I think this place is really neat! It's not like Ponyville, but that's not a bad thing.

[ a sigh before laughing ] Well it's you who keeps me on my toes and all. Aside from learnin' how to walk and hold things right, I must say this place is pretty neat. Haha!

Yeah! I bet we'll be able to bring color to this place in no time, and maybe I'll find my Cutie Mark while I do it!

Anyway, have you been meetin' anyponies, Sis?

Uh, I mean... any people?

[vidya]

[candour.livejournal.com]

A good lot of 'em, yeah! A few fellas helped with with walkin' without too much trouble.

And what about you, Apple Bloom? Have you been walkin' and dressin' yourself fine with Rarity?

[vidya]

[willblossom.livejournal.com]

It's still real weird to walk just on my hind legs... but I guess it's okay. And Rarity already made tons of nice clothes! Even if it's weird to wear 'em all the time.

I agree with you on that, AB. But there's no use in complainin' if that's the way it's gonna be fer now.

You'll be a pro on yer hinds in no time!
