['sup, Luceti? Having a nice day? Well, there's a lovely close up of a cartoon pony's face here, as she finally tries to set up her own journal post.

The camera angle might change a few times until she's satisfied. Aaaand once that's over, she'll just sorta... chill. Yeah.]

Okay, so. I get this place is full of hue-mans and everything, but I still don't get why you guys have to eat meat. Ever thought that maybe those cows don't want to be eaten? You guys have tons of other stuff to eat, so can't you guys let up on the animals? I dunno, it just seems wrong to me, especially since the cows back home could talk just like anypony I know.

[Nevermind the fact that she's seen glue in the general store. Mhmmm.

Though, she doesn't wanna stick to something so morbid, sooo... moving on!]

Anyway, are there any athletes around here? Practicing stunts on my own is nice and all, but where's the challenge? I can pull off tricks in my sleep. I guess what I'm asking is if anyone'd wanna hang out and maybe compete. Doesn't matter what it is. Running, hoof wrestling... whatever hue-mans do.

[She's about to end it there, but as an afterthought...]

Oh, and I wanna apologize to that red haired hue-man I chased during the experiment. Just letting you know that there's no way I'm gonna hunt you down with a sword again.

[Whew, that was a mouthful. But with that out of the way, she'll be tucking her journal away and swooping down from the roof of C3 to get some business taken care of.

First stop? The general store, to pick up a few odd supplies. Sneezing powder, balloons to fill with water, some thick markers to make a sign... all of it's going to go into a saddle bag she's carrying along with her.

Once that's done, she'll be stopping by the bakery to pick up some goods. And by goods I mean cupcakes. A whole box, plus a chocolate one for herself.

With her supplies gathered and brought back to her apartment, she'll be spending the rest of the day doing crazy stunts above the village. Kicking out clouds, swirling them around, running at full speed from one end of the village to the next... Expect lots of rainbows and craziness overall.]

Maybe, but it'd take a pretty powerful unicorn to pull that off.

[Enchanting a whole forest so everything happens on its own... eek.]

[tailasoldastime]

[... That's a word he hasn't heard in years. And he's forgotten what it means.]

Uni... corn?

[wannabolt.livejournal.com]

They're ponies with a horn on their head. They can use magic, but most of it's linked to their special talent.

[tailasoldastime]

Oh. [That... is definitely a new one for him.] A-are they... [sorcerors? Witches? Enchantresses?]

... Wh-what... kind of magic?

[wannabolt.livejournal.com]

Depends on the unicorn. Rarity's magic has to do with finding gemstones and making clothes, Trixie's was all smoke and mirors, but Twilight's magic can do just about anything since her special talent is magic.

[tailasoldastime]

Oh. [He doesn't completely understand still mostly because he's distracted by the names. These unicorns sound like enchantresses to him, with such skills and names.

But if this... pony knows them, then... should he think that she might have similar skills?]

Are... do you have, can you do... magic?

[wannabolt.livejournal.com]

Well, I can stand on clouds, move 'em, make it rain or snow... Plus, I'm the fastest pony around. Can't do spells like Twilight, though.

[tailasoldastime]

[...

Wha... make it rain or snow? That... isn't that almost godlike?

What sort of enchantment are they under?]

How... h-how do you have th-these... these...? [He means to say "skills", but that word isn't coming to mind; he's way too overcome by all the ideas popping up in his head right now.]

[wannabolt.livejournal.com]

All pegasus ponies can do stuff like that. It's just part of the package.

[Metaphorically speaking, of course. And weather control's pretty common where she's from.]

[tailasoldastime]

Pegasu-? [That word sounds familiar, too. Really, he didn't notice the wings, probably because he's used to everyone having them by now.]

[wannabolt.livejournal.com]

Ponies with wings. We handle the weather in Equestria, and we're fast flyers.

[tailasoldastime]

[Eque...? ... Do these ponies come from some magic land or something? It's almost like he's... like he's reading a book!

He's going to be speechless for a few seconds. This is a lot to take in.]

[wannabolt.livejournal.com]

Uh... Guess I lost ya.

[Or he's just lost in fascination. Dash isn't quite sure here.]

Sorry for the late response; didn't expect to be away from the laptop for so long

[tailasoldastime]

[Grr, snap out of it, Beast, she's talking!]

I... s... s-sorry, I... I-I have just never heard of such a... a... [Words!] different world before. [He guesses it's another world anyway.]

Don't worry about it! I'm cool with backtags

[wannabolt.livejournal.com]

Well, most of the worlds I've heard of threw me off, too. I'd say we're even.

[Voice]

[tailasoldastime]

[That's relieving. He was hoping that wouldn't be insulting to say.

A little nod.] A... alright.
