six breaks of the stone

[craggyfaced]

[Quite suddenly there is an ungodly crashing sound over the journal along with some panicked braying that obviously isn't human.

Durge, not usually being a donkey, is quite startled to find himself with two more legs and usual, and in his alarm has both upended and broken his bed rather severely as he attempts to get his...feet...so to speak.

This carries on for a minutes before he manages to stop crashing into things, followed by a forlorn sounding bray that anyone who either understands animals or horse-like creatures might be able to decipher]

...Oh bother.

((loss start))

[and an excitable filly on a loss pipes up over the journal.]

Hi! I didn't know there was a donkey here.

[craggyfaced]

Neither did I...

[doublethefun]

So what's your name? I'm Luna.

[looks like she understands well enough not to notice he's not really speaking like she is.]

[craggyfaced]

[There is sort of an awkward, uneven clopping sound as Durge attempts to examine own hooves, and hasn't caught on to the language thing yet]

Durge.

[doublethefun]

Hi Durge! [and onto more important matters] D'you want to play?

[craggyfaced]

Play...?

[A slight thud as he runs into something...probably the door]

I seem to be having trouble walking at the moment I am not sure I could...

[doublethefun]

[man, this is a big problem. Hmmm.]

You just put one hoof in front of the other.

[craggyfaced]

...but which one?

[He has two more than normal, Luna, how does this even work?]

[doublethefun]

[and then there are some clip-clopping sounds as she decides to walk around]

First you move your right foreleg, then your left hindleg, and then your left foreleg and then.

[a there's a pause as the hoofbeats stop] Um. Wait, now I'm confused too.

[craggyfaced]

[]There is the sound of a few slow hoofbeats]

I think I am getting it...

...did I hear correctly, miss. You seem to possess hooves as well.

[doublethefun]

Mmhmm. I'm a pony.

[craggyfaced]

Ah. Do you know the pink one?

[doublethefun]

[eh?]

Lots of ponies are pink. [at least back home they are]

[craggyfaced]

[None of the ones he's ever seen before coming to Para]

I met another pony here some weeks ago. I though you might have been acquainted with her.

[doublethefun]

[a tiny wingshrug]

I've only met a few ponies here, but none of them were pink.

[craggyfaced]

I see. Are you all from the same world?

[Edward hears the noise and chooses to investigate. She whirls around the castle until she finds the room where all this ruckus is coming from. Without bothering to knock she bursts in and... well... promptly stands there and stares at the creature she'd never seen before.]

[craggyfaced]

[Hi Ed Hi. Maybe she remembers this room. Or not. It's not any different than any other castle room and right not the most notable thing about it is that it's rather smashed up.

In the middle of this mess is a donkey, swishing it's tail in aggravation and it greets her with a woeful bray]

[jammin_with_ed]

[She stands there for a moment, taking everything in. Curiously, she looks up at the nameplate on the door. Her eyes open wide and she stares at him]

Sir Durge?

[craggyfaced]

[There is a obvious bobbing of his head in answer.

This is...kind of embarrassing.]

[jammin_with_ed]

[She giggles, rushing over]

Whyyy are you a donkey? Are you on a loss?

[craggyfaced]

[Well, gee, how is he going to answer that?

He brays softly and stamps a hoof on the floor.]

[jammin_with_ed]

Ooooh you must be! Otherwise, why would you be a silly donkey?!

[craggyfaced]

[He is not a silly ANYTHING, thank you.

He lets out a bray of protest]

[jammin_with_ed]

[What are you talking about? Of course he is! She prances over and drapes an arm over his neck]

You're gonna break eeeeeeverything in your room! You should come outside!

[craggyfaced]

[Oh my god this is so embarrassing...

Durge flicks his ears in slight displeasure and starts for the door]

[jammin_with_ed]

[Embarrassing? Or AMAZING! She leads him out with a grin]

Besides. Noooooooone will know it's you!

[craggyfaced]

[Unless you, you know, tell them. Not that he can...express that worry, other than by pressing his ears back]

[jammin_with_ed]

[Edward? Tell anyone someone else's dirty secret? NEVAH! She skips along beside him]

Come on! We can play outsiiiiiiiide

[craggyfaced]

[He's thrilled. Can you see how thrilled he is?

Well, probably better than staying in here.

Oh wait. Stairs. This could be a problem...]

[jammin_with_ed]

[Oh... Yeah... Stairs. Hmm. She looks around for an elevator?]
