[It's fairly late in the afternoon when Dash peeks into her communicator, attempting to brighten up the gray-skied day with a positively radiant grin. She looks quite pleased with herself!]

Hey, guys! Finally left that New Bark place! [She looks over her shoulder and sticks her tongue out-- a gesture apparently meant for the town she recently left

[YOUR REGULARLY SCHEDULED PROGRAM IS INTERRUPTED BY A FRANTIC SKELETON. While stricken with the dreaded pouting sickness, the Pumpkin King forgot his most important piece of advice he gives all newcomers.]

Rainbow Dash! Whatever you do, don't climb up the ledges. It sounds silly, but trust me on this. They've broken many a man!

[Namely HIS nose and poor Phoenix's ribs.]

[quickattackjack]

Oh, yes! Some of them were good friends of mine.

[video]

[used_defog]

Wha-- You-- How'd you--?

... S-seriously? But... a-aren't you afraid of 'em, like... cursing you or something, Jack...?

[video]

[quickattackjack]

Of course not! They're friends of mine!

[Friends, leg-crawling fans, same thing!]

In fact, they're quite talented, always making potions and things to help folks out. Now, occasionally I get a little worried around Doctor Finklestein, but that's only because sometimes he leaves his skullcap undone and things tend to get into his brain now and again that make him act funny. He doesn't mean any harm by it!

Are there many witches where you live?

[Have some more bug-eyed staring, Jack. Blink. BLINK.

She shakes her head slowly.] Nooooo way. Witches are... scary, ya know! Dangerous! I've... never really seen one, b-but everypony knows the stories!

... You, uh... did just say "skullcap", didn't you...? [That's where you lost her a bit. :\]

[video]

[quickattackjack]

Yes! This part of your head--

]Jack points to his own noggin, and for good measure, knocks on his skull. X[ ow. Stupid idea. Fever. Bluh. Then, he gets a better idea.]

Just a moment! I can draw it better. Sort of! I'm not an artist, I'll warn you.

[video] Oh my gosh that's beautiful. xD

[used_defog]

Huh?

[Just a moment, taking a look at the picture, and...] Pfft...! Hehe... I like it!

[--Waaaiiiiit a second...]
... W-wait, so his... his head can open?!

[video] HES STARING INTO YOUR SOUL

[quickattackjack]

That's right! He's incredibly smart. I think he had to make that skullcap himself to make room for his brain. All the stories I've heard are different...and it's a little rood to ask in person. I mean.

Everyone I've talked to here is really different than the people in Halloween Town...

[video] PFFFT. DASH IS SO CONFUSED BY THIS, JACK.

[used_defog]

[More BUG EYES.]
That's, uh... a pretty big brain then, huh...? [E-eeewww gross. ;; WHY YOU DO THIS, JACK?]

Yeah, I, uh, guess so... Heh. Can't say I've met anypony with an... openable head, ya know...

[video] LOL TACT WHATS THAT

[quickattackjack]

[Jack nodded, proud to be friends with such a smart man!]

Anypony? I can't say I've met any horses with heads like that either.

((;-; oh god super slow tag I am so sorry))

[video] SOMETHING YOU SHOULD LEARN? xD /and no worries about the tag, dude! ^^

[used_defog]

Yeeeeeeeaaah no.

... And you're... friends with that guy...? [MY LITTLE INSENSITIVE, JUDGMENTAL PONY.]
