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!

...uh?

[Confused guy, get.]

[action?]

[rodeopony]

[ That is a lasso coming over your head, Shinn. ]

[action!]

[swordofimpulse]

WHOA!

[...WILD SHINN: CAPTURED!]

WHAT THE HELL IS THIS FOR!?

[action!]

[rodeopony]

[ With a quick tug of her mouth, AJ pulls the rope snug around Shinn's middle, and comes skidding to a halt next to him. ]

It's a lasso, silly! It's for wrastlin' cattle!

[action]

[quickattackjack]

[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!]

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!

[sleepearly]

[Oh hey there's a dragon writing notes with a quill and not noticing where he is...!]

[action]

[rodeopony]

[ Drops the lasso. ]

Spike? Is that you?!

[action]

[sleepearly]

...oh good, Applejack, you're here!

[It appears the fact that he's not home hasn't registered yet.]

[action]

[rodeopony]

[ Gallops up to him, before skidding to a halt, tail lashing the air. Her pokemon shyly come after. ]

Of course I'm here! Why are you here?

[sorabug]

[don't mind the kid standing nearby in awe, and probably inching closer to get a better look.]

Wow!

[action?]

[rodeopony]

[ AJ notices she has an enthralled audience and will be kicking it up a notch. Literally. She's jumping through her own lasso. ]

Watch this!

[action]

[sorabug]

[... oh my stars and paopu fruits, a talking pony!!! Sora doesn't even know how to react for the first several seconds, but eventually settles on flailing his arms wildly.]

GO MISS PONY, GO!

[action]

[rodeopony]

[ Applejack laughs and begins to rapidly jump over, under and through the lasso, finishing off with a clean backflip over the rope (don't ask how she does it--it's as magic as friendship). That done, the rope is tossed neatly over Sora's shoulders, and with a flick of her tail, Applejack tightens it only just enough to be snug, but leaving his hands free to get out. How's that for a showstopper?

She bows. ]

[moonmajesty]

Is that what it's called, a... Custard?

fhdsjfkhsk *A*

[rodeopony]

A wha--

[ fhsdjkfhjsk lasso? what lasso? All thoughts have fled Applejack's mind. ]

Ni-- [ WAIT BACK UP. ] --I mean, Princess Luna!

[ Brain = broken. ]

[moonmajesty]

[... Well. That expression's to be expected, huh. She swallows.]

Yes... you're one of the elements of harmony who helped me.

[And she gives a nod of appreciation.]

[rodeopony]

Yeah--I'm Applejack. Pleased to meet you.

[ She settles, looking apologetic. ] Sorry for gettin' so worked up--I sure wasn't expecting to see you here!
