[amygdalae]

[Soooooo.

Bruce isn't exactly sure where he is, but its pretty clear he isn't in Kansas New York anymore. Or even America, for that matter. Possibly Earth too, considering his attempts to get information.]

Um.

[Should he be using this thing? Its kind of... yeah. Suspicious. Its not everyday you fall asleep to wake up somewhere else with a strange device on you. (Well okay, the first part is something that’s happened while the second... actually, nevermind that.)

At least the place is... interesting. For a lack of a better word.]

If there’s anybody out there watching this - I would appreciate it if I could have an explanation about--all of this. [Gesturing to his surroundings in question for emphasis, which is a nice shot of one of the districts for a few moments before its broken by the aborable sounds of a Meow Wow as it starts to jump up and down, taking the screen each time.]

[...yeah so after a bit Bruce angles the device back at him, awkwardly scratching the back of his head.] I did try asking, but I don’t think a couple of ‘kupos’ and a cat-thing following after me is exactly the answer I’m looking for.

[Attempts to put on a smile here. Just... help him out here, please? He would appreciate it, really.]

[Oh goodness me, what is that approaching? Is it a pink pony riding on top of a gigantic cat thing? Yes. Yes it is. She stands, one forehoof resting on his crown for balance, and waves wildly with the other as they lumber-bounce nearer.]

HIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII!!!

[action] I'm dying inside omg

[amygdalae]

[AS IF ONE PONY WASN'T ENOUGH--

Bruce hears them bouncing before he sees it, and once he does see Bruce kind of quickly scrambles to the side because dear god what is happening.

The... Meow Wow, on the other hand, just kind of toddles after Bruce, because... yeah. No point running.]

[action] it had to be done

[sailorlaughter]

[Pinkie keeps waving and "hi"-ing until they're close enough for her to slide down her Meowjesty's side, landing neatly on her hooves before Bruce.]

Hi! You're new here, right? 'Cause I've never seen you before, and there's really not even as many people here as in Ponyville, so I know pretty much everyone! My name's Pinkie Pie, and this is Lord Tubbington the Third, and this is your "Welcome to Traverse Town" cupcake!

[Don't question where she pulled that cupcake from. It looks perfectly good.]

[action] it is glorious

[amygdalae]

[Well at least he isn't squashed flat under the bigger... cat-thing so Bruce will consider that a victory.

He does have to pause though when the pony speaks at him really quickly and then pulls out a cupcake from nowhere. How did the pony do that - and how that matter, how is it holding the cupcake? Ponies don't have opposable thumbs, last he checked.]

Um. [...what does he say, really.] Thank... you?

[action]

[sailorlaughter]

You're welcome!

[And she just looks at him expectantly. You've gotta eat it now, mate.]

So, what's your name?

[action]

[amygdalae]

[But why does he have to--

Okay fine. Have Bruce take a small bite from the pastry now.

...well okay, its not too bad.]

--Bruce Banner. [Says once he's swallowed down the mouthful of cupcake.] How about you, if I may ask?

[action]

[sailorlaughter]

I'm Pinkie Pie! I just got here not that long ago, but some of my friends are here too, so it's okay! [Yeah, Bruce may have noticed that by now.]

[action]

[amygdalae]

[Yes. Yes he has.]

The, ah, other ponies, I assume?

[action]

[sailorlaughter]

Yep! Me and Rarity and the Princesses!

[action]

[amygdalae]

[Well he knows Rarity and you, so... the other two are the Princesses, then.]

I see. [A nod.] Well, its nice to meet... all of you, I suppose.
