Alright. For future reference, talking animals should be a topic addressed when dealing with new-comers. Less important one, yeah, but still worth an honorable mention, I think.

[ A shift here to a musing tone, but anyone who understands the concept of sarcasm is in for a treat. ]

Kidnapped by unseen, malevolent forces, trapped to live in a village in the middle of nowhere with no means of escape, vulnerable to torture, don't fuss with the wings, everything's free... Talking animals.

I just had a squirrel panhandle me for crisps.

Are there any other things I should be prepared to converse with? Are the appliances keeping tabs on what we're getting up to?

[Yes, this is a colorful, cartoonish pegasus looking unimpressed.]

[ That's a pony.

That's a blue bloody pony. ]

Well, there's nothing wrong with them. It's just not something I've been used to seeing.

[ There is a placating note of apology here. ]

[wannabolt]

Yeah, most people around here are like that. Even the ones who've been here a while still freak out when they see me around.

[Then again, Rainbow Dash is not a master of subtlety, the way she creates rainbow streaks in the sky daily, makes clouds disappear or pulls them down to relax... basically cartoon logic and a little pegasus power at work there.]

But I doubt you're gonna bump into a talking toaster.

Well, there's something in that. Not sure I could contend with something that's prepared to criticize my affinity for toast.

[ He offers her a slight smile. ]

To be fair, you seem rather radiant. Your certainly the most singular individual I've yet to encounter.

[ There is a warmness to this, but also a level of politeness. It sounds... like a little girl, but he's not certain. Either way, they sound a little put out by this 'freaking out', and John doesn't want to offend, well, anyone that doesn't deserve it, human or not. He'll afford her a little charm. ]

Can I ask if you're a native? Or were you brought along as well?

[Probably closer to a teen or young adult, but her voice is pretty high and raspy all the same.

She doesn't seem as upset now, though, but Dash is quick to shift to her typical cool exterior. At Watson's question, she shakes her head.]

Nah, I'm from a totally different world, just like everybody else.
