  2. >no seriously, you’re no gimmicks regular ass guy, anon
  3. >OKAY slightly nerdy but still relatively normal Anon
  4. >be chilling out at home on 4chan after staying up until 3:44 AM
  5. >just read the latest Anon in Equestria thread on /mlp/
  6. >oh that guy dashieisbestpone knows how to write a good story you think to yourself
  7. “But methinks it’s time for bed”
  8. >you had a bad habit of talking to yourself
  9. >you get up from your comfy computer chair, and sleepily shuffle out of the living room
  10. >and head for the kitchen
  11. >you weren’t one for routines but you had ONE, you’d always follow the same procedure before bed
  12. >“okay brain” you think to yourself “are you ready”
  13. >brain has given a big affirmative, okay brain take it away
  14. >You brush your teeth
  15. “yep”
  16. >You got your Ibuprofen for your migraines
  17. “yep”
  18. >you got your BreatheRight Nasal Strip
  19. “yep, right here on my face brain”
  20. >you got your ratty grey shirt with the holes in the collar
  21. “yep, put that on after I showered”
  22. >got your black sweat shorts
  23. “yep, that came with the shirt”
  24. >Got your Arizona Fruit Punch to drink and your weed and pipe
  25. “yep, yep and yep, I got this shit down brain”
  26. >Okay good, you may watch one episode of MLP, but ONLY one, I don’t want you staying up all night like when you first started watching that show
  27. “Shut up brain you’re not my mom
  28. >naw dude, I’m your brain, I’m worse than your mom
  29. “Oh right”
  30.  
  31. >you go from the kitchen to your bedroom, and sit down on the futon against the back wall
  32. >you grab the TV remote and pop the TV on
  33. >you waste no time in getting to your DVR, all that’s on now is shopping and infomercials anyways
  34. >after some searching you find what you’re looking for
  35. > You’ve got every single episode of FIM on that thing, even the ones you don’t like
  36. >because there aren’t any you don’t like.
  37. >You never understood why people were so militant about Season 1 or 2 being better than the other
  38. >it’s all pony to you and that’s all that matters
  39. >looking through the episodes for one that catches your eye takes some time because of this
  40. >did you mention you were also indecisive as hell?
  41. >you eventually settle on your favorite episode “Sonic Rainboom”
  42. >A bowl is packed and you settle in for your nightly cooldown
  43. >after all that S.T.A.L.K.E.R. today you need this
  44. >you need to switch from “Brutality Mode” into “Sweet Dreams” mode
  45. >pony was one of the best ways you could do that
  46.  
  47. >Even though you’ve seen it many times the episode never loses its charm
  48. >You’re on the part where rarity is about to fly up to the sun
  49. >you know what happens next, her wings burn up and she falls for her pride
  50. >You hope they were deliberately trying to reference Icarus, because that would be cool
  51. >just when she’s about to fall though you get a weird feeling
  52. >you were a paranoid /x/phile before you found MLP so this kinda thing wasn’t too uncommon
  53. >but still you find that it’s making you very uneasy
  54. >you try to push it from your mind, it’s all the pot you smoke making you think stupid shit
  55. >but you still can’t quite shake it
  56. >you watch rarity fall and you watch the ensuing chaos like you have before
  57. >and of course Rainbow dives and catches her whilst performing a sonic Rainboom
  58. >thus showing those motherfuckers who doubted her in life who she really was
  59. >but your TV looks so weird though, it’s like SUPER DUPER detailed
  60. >It’s a respectable HD TV and all that but this shit looks really sharp
  61. >then you see it, and you do indeed shit bricks like a true follower of the /x/
  62.  
  63. >Pinkie Pie is staring right at you
  64. >they’re all sitting in a circle on the ground, which you don’t remember during this episode either
  65. >no it’s not pot or lack of sleep that’s doing this to you, you’re so used to those two things it’s easy to tell
  66. >nor is it part of the episode, you’ve seen this one quite a few times
  67. >Pinkie Pie is FUCKING staring at you, like that one god damned copypasta you read
  68. >of course you begin to nope, as you’ve done in any situation like this as long as you can remember
  69. >you head for the door and pass out of Ms. Pie’s sight range
  70. >but you stop dead in your yellow bellied tracks when you hear her voice
  71. >PP “Girls, did you just see what I saw”
  72. >“What’d ya see pinkie” by that southern drawl you can tell that’s AJ
  73. >PP “I dunno, some kind of silly looking bald thing on two legs”
  74. >the next to speak up is Fluttershy “I’ve never heard of an animal like that before” she says softly
  75. >Damn it you’ve always had a weakness for that voice, and now it sounded like she was in the room
  76. >you stood there listening to them look around for you, like you had been standing right there and then vanished
  77. >At least according to Pinkie Pie you were
  78. >and that of course raised a lot of existential questions that your contemplative mind would tear apart later
  79. >now, you were gonna figure out what the hell was going on
  80. >Mainly why cartoon ponies were acknowledging your presence all of a sudden
  81. >you turn slowly and peek at the screen
  82. >they’ve all gathered around twilight
  83. >Twi:“Okay, I’m going to try a spell I read about yesterday” she says
  84. >Twi: “It’ll teleport whatever it is to us and hold it in a state of suspended animation”
  85. >Suddenly you’re overcome with vertigo nausea and a MASSIVE headache
  86. >And boy is Twilights horn glowing, hell it’s so bright it’s probably what’s CAUSING your headache
  87. >and it only gets brighter, until you feel your feet drop out from under you
  88.  
  89. >oh boy, this thing in your futon hurts
  90. >you open your eyes looking for the hard thing that has invaded your bed
  91. >and you look up into six big pairs, quietly watching your every move
  92. >Shit you had hoped all that weird shit last night was a drug induced nightmare
  93. >and yet, lo and behold the main six are gawking at you as you lay on the ground
  94. >the silence is both awkward and horrifying for you, it’s just like that time you sneezed and farted really loud in 3rd grade
  95. >the first pony to open her mouth is, as you expected Pinkie Pie
  96. >PP: “see I told you I saw a bald thingy looking at us” she says with her normal enthusiasm
  97. >the rest of them still sit looking at you with an expression of shock
  98. >Twi: “How in Celestia’s name did this happen…” she says sounding heartbroken
  99. >Rare: “Now Darling don’t beat yourself up like that, you had no idea it was one of THESE dreadful things
  100. >now you weren’t one to take being insulted like that laying down, even though you were totally laying down as you’re thinking this
  101. “Dreadful?! Now I’ve been called many things but I’m anything but dreadful”
  102. >you sit up slowly as you say that holding your still somewhat sore head
  103. >the whole cast seems to back away when you get to your feet, all of them but pinkie
  104. >It’s almost like they’re afraid of you or something
  105. >Rarity looks visibly pale as you gesture to her and Twilight can’t stop sobbing
  106. “I’m not all that particularly sure why I’m being treated like some kind of monster anyway”
  107. >Rarity: “Don’t try to fool us beast, we’ve had quite enough of your kind’s “Shenanigans” before”
  108. >It’s Fluttershy that speaks up next, but her words surprise you
  109. >FS: “He doesn’t look like the last human that was here” she says that timidly and just loudly enough that the others can hear “he’s not sweaty or fat”
  110. >PP: “yea, he doesn’t smell like cheese or have all that scratchy fur on his face either!” she interjects
  111. >as you hear that last part your mind starts clinking like a broken slot machine
  112. >Fat
  113. >Sweaty
  114. >cheesy smell and scratchy facial hair
  115. >then it all clicks into place and your brain does a mental backflip of terror as you realize what they’re talking about
  116.  
  117. >You had to think of something fast now or they’d think you’re like…THEM
  118. “Wait a minute, Wait a minute, I know of what you speak”
  119. >you have a foolproof plan to clear your good name of the past sins of some horrid autistic nut
  120. >and hopefully not end up as the second “manned” mission to the equestrian moon
  121. >and for that you had to utilize your best skill, one that’s gotten you out of schoolyard fights and drunk and disorderlies both
  122. >you had to lie, to lie like you’ve never lied before
  123. “The thing you just described is no human”
  124. >you put the most serious “spooky story” voice you have into action
  125. >they all look at you less scared but more confused now, at least Twilight’s stopped crying though
  126. “Oh no, these things are something else. They live amongst us in secret”
  127. >Twi: “like…like Changelings” she says in between her final few sobs
  128. >you put your hands up in a mystical gesture and nod gravely
  129. “But they’re not, they’re called…”
  130. >you look side to side like you’re about to tell them an amazing secret
  131. “…neckbeards.”
  132. >they all gasp like some cheap mystery dinner play but it’s the effect you were hoping for
  133. “Though instead of love they feed on attention and pity, but sow only chaos and awkwardness in their wake”
  134. >Twilight’s face brightens at this revelation and the rest of the mane 6 look visibly relieved
  135. >well except pinkie, she looks the same as she did before, excited
  136. >PP “see, what’d I tell you, he’s not so bad” she says bouncing up to you and extending a hoof in greeting
  137. >PP “Hi I’m…”
  138. “Pinkie Pie”
  139. >you then turn and point at the bewildered looking equines in front of you
  140. “And you guys are, Twilight Sparkle, Rarity, Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy and Applejack”
  141. >you point at each one when you say their name
  142. >and you examine each of the expressions on their faces, Fuckin’ Priceless
  143. >“Wait up a sec, how do you know all our names” Rainbow Dash says a look of suspicion on her face as she flies up to eye level with you
  144. “You guys are really famous where I’m from”
  145.  
  146. >So here you are like all of those AIE stories you used to read
  147. >walking with the cast of FIM through a nice sized field that was supposed to be near Ponyville and you could sorta kinda see it off in the distance, but you were still quite a way off
  148. >you had been much farther about an hour ago but you had passed the time with idle conversation
  149. >and by that you mean answering twilights questions about you while the others couldn’t get a word in edgewise
  150. >Twi: “so is there really a television show about us where you’re from?”
  151. “Yep, it’s pretty popular too; some people even go as far as trying to dress up like ponies”
  152. >AJ “well that’s just buckin’ stupid, ya’ll don’t look nuthin’ like us”
  153. >Rarity “Oh, I’m sure with some creative needlework they could look like very handsome ponies”
  154. >she looks over at you “Even if they’d be a little… big”
  155. >AJ: “but the front legs would be too short, an’ besides what use would it be anyways”
  156. “To look like a huge dork in public places”
  157. >that comment elicits a small giggle from Rainbow who’s been flying along lazily behind you
  158. >RD “does everyone do that stuff” she says stifling a laugh
  159. “No, for some reason it’s only the people who’re terrible at making costumes”
  160. >Rainbow can’t hold it in now, she’s openly laughing
  161. >First Impression Verdict: Awesome
