[A. 339 Brady Lane; morning]

[She should have known better than to try to move the weird blue flowers that were springing up everywhere, but noooooo...

A very resigned and scruffy-looking pony can be found limping around the house, trying to see how much of the place is overrun with the blue blossoms.

While muttering in annoyance to herself, as usual.]

Oh all the stupid things...a pony? Really? How'm I going to get anything done with hooves? It's not too bad, but still...

[B. John Doe Park; afternoon]

[This dull green pony can be found napping in a sunny patch in the park, her bad leg stretched out as she dozes. She's already been partially traumatized today, so why not strike up a conversation? After all, ponies aren't dragons, so poking a sleeping pony can't be that bad.

Also, even on the flank that isn't horribly scarred, she seems to be missing something important.

Her cutie mark. Mika is still a blank flank.]

[C: Around town: evening]

[As nice as the nap was, Mika never quite realized how far the house was from the park until she has to limp home. The bedraggled pony is making slow progress, but she tends to stop frequently and sit to rest her leg.]

Comments

[chalicejoker]

...like TV?

[He shakes his head at the discussion of the milk.]

There weren't any needles or razorblades in the spill, but I'm pretty sure whatever was in there ate through the carpet a bit.

[Wow, a pony wagging its tail does look rather odd. He'll refrain from commenting on that.]

Sure, come by when things are back to normal. I'll fix you up with something nice. On the house, as my apology for startling you so badly.

[wolfishsurvivalist]

Sorry, some television shows where I come from have plots that are startlingly similar to what you're talking about. No offense meant.

You know, that wouldn't surprise me at all, sadly.

[Her eyes go positively huge, and perhaps a bit sparkly which is kind of unsettling, but seems to go hand-in-hand (hoof?) with being a pony.]

Really? You mean that?

[You sir have just become one of Mika's new best friends. Or at least her hero. Fresh delicious meat that she doesn't have to pay for this one time? Christmas came early this year!]

[chalicejoker]

None taken. This place does draw from several different realities, after all.

[And wow, he is nowhere near used to making people that happy. It just doesn't happen. Throws him off guard a bit.]

Yeah, I mean that.

[wolfishsurvivalist]

Yeah, there's that.

[Her tail is wagging again, and she's positively beaming.]

Thank you!

[chalicejoker]

[So unused to making people that happy. So very unused to it. He'd return that smile with an awkward one of his own were this form to allow that.]

You're quite welcome.

It says something when I don't have any icons that properly show her excitement

[wolfishsurvivalist]

Hopefully this'll be over soon, it'll probably only last a few more days at most.

[Eeee, she's so excited.]

Oh! Hey! [Sudden idea! She stamps both forehooves on the grass before she can catch herself.]

I'll cook you something! I'm not the best but I do know how to cook a decent steak or something, and I can make a decent chili. I'll bring you some of whatever I fix from that cut of meat. How's that sound?

Nice. XD

[chalicejoker]

Yeah, I'd prefer not to remain in this form any longer than I have to...

[He has no idea how to deal with this excitement, and he's surprised by the offer. He is so unused to having friends...]

That would be very nice of you. Do you have any preferences as to the cut?

[wolfishsurvivalist]

That one does look like it makes things awkward.

[She touches a hoof to her mouth. From the looks of it, it probably makes it hard getting in and out of doorways.]

Not really, any cut of meat is fine with me.

[She would probably eat it raw if no one was looking too, but she knows better than that. After all, she's a mostly civilized wolf.]

[chalicejoker]

At least I'm walking around on two legs. I'd imagine the hooves get cumbersome.

[He looks thoughtful.]

We'll have to see what looks good that day, then.

[And he'd probably not bat an eye at her eating it raw. He's not one to judge.]

[wolfishsurvivalist]

Only when one of them doesn't support your weight well.

[She huffs, her tail waving.]

Excellent!

[Looks like she's really looking forward to this, she'll have to think of something good to make. Since she has roommates and cooks for a full house, she doesn't usually eat raw meat. Besides, it always tastes better when it has a chance to soak up the seasonings she puts on it.]
