You gettin' all this, Custard?

[ That's Applejack's voice, all right, but that certainly doesn't look like Applejack. No, actually, that looks like a pony.

A pony with a lasso--oh god what.

Apparently ponies have prehensile tails, because this one is doing some pretty dope tricks with that rope. Her pokemon look on with total awe. ]

Yee-haw!

[As if waking up with no skin wasn't enough...PONY WUT. Rainbow Dash had told the truth--not that he doubted her! But still...this was the first time he'd ever seen a Pony. AJ sure looks like she's having a good time! The skeleton throws on a grin and applauds. He sure can't do any fancy rope tricks like that!]

Bravo!

[And where'd he come from? It's just one of those days!]

[ fhdsjkhfsjk SCREA ]

What in tarnation--?!

[action]

[quickattackjack]

It-....it's...Italian?

[No, Jack...just no.]

[action]

[rodeopony]

You ain't nothin' but bones, mister! That just ain't right!

[action]

[quickattackjack]

It isn't my fault! I just wanted to say, you're very talented with that ah-- lasso.

[action]

[rodeopony]

[ A pause.

Yeah okay, she can temporarily ignore the skeleton-ness to bask in that compliment. ]

Y'really thought so? I reckon I did pretty good.

[action]

[quickattackjack]

I do!

[His grin returns. Yaaay he isn't about to get trampled by a spooked pony!]

You must be one of Rainbow Dash's friends.

[action]

[rodeopony]

You bet I am!

[ Blink. Wait. You sound familiar... ]

Haven't we talked before...?

[action]

[quickattackjack]

She's a handful, isn't she? Or a hoof-ful in your case...and...I think you're right!

[That accent!]

You were ill.

[action]

[rodeopony]

[ A little laugh. ] She is, but that's why we like her.

You're right! From those chocolates--the skeleton man! [ Two and two do equal four, Applejack. Way to go. ] I don't think I got your name that time.

[action] sorry if this posts twice ;-;

[quickattackjack]

That's right! A shame too...I've enjoyed what sweet stuff I've found here.

I don't think I got yours either. [He holds out a hand.] Jack Skellington.

[action] <3

[rodeopony]

Well, I can eat other sweet stuff. Just not chocolate!

[ ...she looks at his hand, before tentatively putting her hoof in it. ] Applejack. Pleased to meetcha!

[action]

[quickattackjack]

[YOU'RE TOUCHING DEAD PEOPLE, APPLEJACK. And it has a good handshake!]

Jack and Applejack. Hah!

[Dork.]

[action] it's sad they won't remember this afterwards ;;

[rodeopony]

[ It's okay, Jack is cool dead people. ]

Guess it was meant to be! So uh, how'd you an' Dash meet, exactly?

[action] ;-; yeah

[quickattackjack]

I met her in the Pokemon center in Violet. She cheered me up after my gym battle and we've been friends ever since!
