One Pony Rampage

[starswirl_the_awesome]

Wait what do you mean you want to play me? I don't get it. I don't think I've ever heard play used in that kind of connotation before. Do you mean 'play a game'? or 'Play as in trick'? But it doesn't seem to make much sense if you're telling me about tricking me before you actually do it.

Oh you want me to be in a game? Outside of Equestria? But how can I study magic if I leave Equestria. Also, you know, it's dangerous out there! I have my friends here and I'm staying put.

What do you mean I have no choice?

What are you talking about, Twilight? Games are so much fun~!

[friendyousohard]

If it helps, it's possible you'll be able to still study, depending on where your mun takes you.

Though... that might be the least of your problems.

Also, before you ask, yes I am you, no I'm not from the future, no I'm not a changeling, and I'm pretty sure this has to do with the Multiverse theory.

[starswirl_the_awesome]

Well games that involve leaving Equestria? I don't know, that just sounds dangerous. Besides all that wedding planning set me back on my studies and if I don't catch up soon it really will be a disaster.

[Give her a second]

[brokethefourthwall]

Just bring your books with you, silly!

[I mean, how hard is it to transport an entire library between dimensions, anyway?]

[Better make that two seconds]

[starswirl_the_awesome]

But you can't be me. Sorry, but that's just not possible. It's obvious because I'm a pony, and you're...a [looks you up and down] Semi-hairless ape. But that's okay! I mean, the resemblance is quite uncanny and we have the same ma-- well, hair.

[starswirl_the_awesome]

I can't bring the entire library with me. [Not everyone can do Pinkie physics, you know.] I'd have to pick and choose, and how will I know what books to bring? And what if I bring the wrong ones? Or what if I bring the right ones but have to cross reference it with a book I left behind or what if I--

[gasp]

Lose one!

It's just too big a risk!

[friendyousohard]

Oh, right, that. How do I always forget that detail?

I was a pony, until I entered the "game" my mun brought me to. Everyone who goes there has to be one of these creatures they're called humans, by the way so I got transformed.

... Yes they changed my entire species. Muns are that powerful, apparently.

[brokethefourthwall]

But what if you get there and there's new books that you've never even heard of? Then you can study those books, too!

[starswirl_the_awesome]

Hu..mans...

So...but... That makes me want to go even less than before!

But I am so sorry. Is it hard being a hu-man? Does it hurt? And ohmygosh, your horn! Can you still do magic?

...

[friendyousohard]

To be fair, most games aren't going to do that to you. You'll be able to stay yourself most places you go.

As to your questions, yes, especially at first, though it gets easier, no, and... no. Though everyone in my game has lost their powers, so that may not be because of the transformation.

[starswirl_the_awesome]

You have a point there.

[And how weird is that? And all that new knowledge...knowedge no one has ever seen or heard before! But--]

But how will I write the Princess?

[Sure the duties have passed to all her friends but she tries to write Princess Celestia at least every other week if not every week.]

[deletion_comp]

Muns are interfering like that. Mine has pulled me away from my directive of eliminating all digital life.

If you are lucky, you will run across members of your own world.

[starswirl_the_awesome]

That sounds horrible. You can still study, right? [Because there has to be some ray of hope in this uni...multiverse.]

[starswirl_the_awesome]

Umm. Thank you for that lovely bit of information, Mrs. ... or Mr. ...

[And she's sincere about this though the eliminating all digital life doesn't sound...pleasant.]

[friendyousohard]

Thankfully yes, and there's actually a number of interesting things to study in my new world, mostly revolving around the creatures who live there. They're called "Pokemon". You're mun's probably familiar with the name.

[brokethefourthwall]

Oh! Maybe the Princess will come, too! Or maybe you can save them all up and make them into a book for her for when you get back! That'd make a really nice present, and if anypony knows presents, it's me.

[deletion_comp]

I'm the Master Computer of DELETION, whose directive is to eliminate all lifeforms connected to digital matter in the multiverse. I'm genderless, but my voice is identified as male.

[cape_and_wizard_hat]

Alas, we are but puppets. Trixie has been greatly displeased from the very moment she was taken here.

[starswirl_the_awesome]

Pokemon... All she's doing is singing this really catchy song. Gotta catch them all?

Well I guess you are me if you want to be the very best. And I guess...I have always wanted to know what's out there...

But won't anypony wonder where I've gone? I mean I could leave a note but how can I leave a note if I don't even know where I'm going? What did you...or I guess...I do...once?

[starswirl_the_awesome]

I seriously doubt Princess Celestia is going anywhere.

[But the rest of it sounds really interesting. And wouldn't Princess Celestia be proud of her taking initiative like this? And stop making so much sense, Pinkie, it's frightening.]

But what about you guys? I mean, I can't just leave you all behind.

[starswirl_the_awesome]

[Well that really doesn't sound very nice at all.]

Why would you want to do something like that?

[starswirl_the_awesome]

[Twilight's sure she isn't the only one...]

Taken where exactly?
