event: step right up

[mayfield_mods]

[The phones seem to be ringing more often than usual today. Pick up, and you just might hear the voice of someone you haven't talked to in a few days. Better speak fast though, because judging from the static over the lines, the connection isn't very stable.]

Are these actually working...? Ugh, this is Kreutzer. The town is...

...whatever. Floyd? Apple Bloom? Please tell me you two are okay. I have to know if you're okay!

[prissy_hooves]

Kreutzer! Are you all right?

[suicidoll]

I'm...still alive, at the very least. It's terrible here, Rarity; we've been left here to die and it's as if the fabric of this world's reality is falling apart...

(She coughs several times.)

I hope things have been much better for you. Are you okay? Have you heard from Apple Bloom?

[prissy_hooves]

I'm fine. Apple Bloom is all right too. Please, take care of yourself. Don't take any unnecessary risks.

[suicidoll]

I'm trying. It's rough, but...I haven't given up yet. There may be something at the end if we survive, but nothing makes sense. Nothing is certain.

I hope Empress is still looking after you. I don't want anyone else to suffer because of this.

[prissy_hooves]

Yes, she's fine and so am I. And Twilight put up a barrier around my house just to be absolutely safe. So please, focus on your own well-being for now, Kreutzer.

[suicidoll]

As long as you and the others are safe...I think I can manage...

(More coughing as her voice gets a bit raspier. Damn this filthy dimension...)

...manage that. I have a few dolls left, at least.

[prissy_hooves]

Good. Stay safe, Kreutzer. I'll be waiting for your return.

[suicidoll]

I'll see you when I come back, Rarity. Take care.

K-Kreutzer?! It's me, Apple Bloom! What ha- [Static]

[suicidoll]

Apple Bloom! (Kreutzer raised her voice a little out of excitement, but she's greatly relieved to hear the little filly's voice again.)

There's a lot happening, Apple Bloom. The Funhouse brought some people to a separate dimension...it's not very good. Have you been alright?

[wishesforacutiemark]

Yeah, I'm okay. But what 'bout you? Whaddaya mean 'a separate dimension'?

[suicidoll]

It was a few wrong turns in the funhouse. It turns out there was an alternate exit that several have been stuck through...

(She coughs repeatedly.)

Have...have my dolls made it to you? Are they keeping you safe?
