[Oh god, now who is this guy? He's new, and he looks pretty mad. He's pacing the lobby like a mad freak. Fists clenched, hair ruffled and glasses broken, he's pretty hard to ignore because of the fact he's yelling out at the top of his lungs. Someone's gotta hear this guy.]

"Hello!? Helloooooo~
I said hello! Ca-can anybody hear me?
This is a joke... this is a joke right?
Someone-Someone want to tell me what's going on?"

[He pauses, and messes up his newly found hair, and then has a minor freakout. There he goes, talking to himself...]

"Ohhh my god, ahaha... oh this is ridiculous. THIS IS ridiculous, truly and utterly ridiculous!
I can't even conceive how ridiculous this is... this... this is like the epitome of ridiculous right here, right here in one place. It's-"

[He turns around, and trips over his footing, knocking over a vase. Oop.]

Comments

[wheatdos]

[He's quiet for a moment]

"..."

[He clears his throat and adjusts his lab coat. He seems to speak slower now. That eccentric, fast paced tone suddenly gone.]

"Does, does that have any significance to you or, or is it just a name?"

[doublethefun]

In Equestria, We raise the moon and bring the night.

[wheatdos]

[He's quiet again. Something is bothering him now.]

"It-It, It was nice meeting you. I should get going now. Figure out this place, and such."

[That was strange. He went from being the most obnoxious and annoying talkative fellow to silent and monotonous within seconds.]

[doublethefun]

[...what the heck]

What? Did We offend thee in some manner?

[wheatdos]

"Nononono, It's fine really! I-I gotta figure this place out if I'm gonna come up with a plan, love. Right. Definitely. Yes...!"

[He stops, walking and turns towards her. Okay, he seems better. His words are slightly faster again.]

"Sorry love, you see, you see... it's just when someone mentions the moon, it's it's just a... a bad memory and whatnot. Before this... this whole... castle thing."

[doublethefun]

[a slight headtilt. Is this one of the things you're not supposed to ask about? Or is it?]

...Wouldst thou like to talk about it?

[wheatdos]

"Eh..."

[He suddenly sits himself on the floor and sighs. He looks kinda tired. This bugger probably hasn't slept since he's gotten here.]

"It's a long... long story really. Not really worth tellin' if you ask me."

[Oh god, Wheatley is the guy who can go a mile a minute... and he's calling the story long?]

[doublethefun]

[a moment later, she lies down next to this inexplicable creature.]

We have never encountered a story not worth telling.

[wheatdos]

[There was a sigh, and he messed up his own hair. He spoke low, as if he didnt want other's to hear]

"Before... before all of this, I was a pretty big deal you know. I guess, I suppose I was stuck in the exact same position I am now, really. Trapped in a vast place with no sort of escape, but the difference was, that place was my home. I only wanted to leave cause it was, well to put it blatantly, it was falling apart. I found someone who could've helped me escape before everything fell apart for good though. An awful human woman, really. She smelled, had a bit of severe brain damage, but she was probably my only way out.

We even became friends! Believe that eh? Well, she was my friend, but in the truth she was just using me, for her own selfish wants. Squeeeeezing me for information, letting me get hurt whenever it was possible. I think she was trying to get rid of me to be honest, throw me in an incineration pit.. hope I get crushed. It was horrible, really. And then at the end, when everything was looking so great, she turned on me, and tried to KILL me. Naturally I retaliated, but she was my FRIEND. And she wanted me DEAD.

Obviously she-she couldn't kill me though."

[He laughs a little nervously]

"But... but she chucked me off the planet into space with another mate. My sentence was to stare at that moon for eons, caught in gravity's rotation for years. Years, just staring. Staring at that moon. After eons, well, I guess I ended up here. That mate could talk about the moon for ages, but I guess I feel a bit bad about leaving him up there in space by himself."

[He looked at her]

"You see? Human's are horrible creatures. They just use you to get what they want, and then they just throw you out."

[doublethefun]

[she listens intently, a feeling of unease coming over her as it sounds more and more familiar. And yup, he winds up getting a light nuzzle from the pony.]

Friends can have disagreements.

[to put it lightly]

[wheatdos]

"Well, well I guess I'd call it more than just a...a... minor disagreement."

[He looks at her.]

"'nless you've got friends like that, love. If you do, then i'd have to strongly advise you to reconsider who your friends are."

[doublethefun]

[a wry chuckle as she finally lets go of the royal We]

My sister is the one friend I can depend on. I can only hope that we will remain friends.

[wheatdos]

[He seems to relax slightly when she FINALLY begins to speak in the first person.]

"Oh, is that right eh? A sibling. So you PO-NIES have those? Some sort of interconnection of family. I've read about family somewhere in one of the many book's I've read. Interesting, truly interesting. Hm.

Is your sibling here with you? Or was she left behind back on, well, wherever you came from?"

[doublethefun]

Humans have siblings too, as do many other animals.

[a shrug of her wings] Nay, she is not here. I can only hope that she still resides in Equestria.

[wheatdos]

"So she's over there while you're here stuck with me eh? Looks like we're in the, in the same... uhhh boat. It's funny really, how most of the one's trapped here don't deserve it. Not like I'm saying who deserves what. No, actually I am saying that. I certainly don't, and you don't look like the kind've PO-NY who deserves to be put in a castle far from home, whatever this... "Equestria" is."

[doublethefun]

That is kind of thee to say, but -

[considers this for a long moment, and then a wingshrug. No undue emotion, just stating facts here:] I tried to bring about nighttime eternal. I fought my sister, but she won and banished me to the moon. A thousand years later, I escaped but was defeated yet again by the Elements of Harmony.


Suffice it to say that this was the best possible outcome. I came to my senses and the world did not wither away into nothingness.

[wheatdos]

[Wheatley laughed, but not in a particularly insulting way]

"Wait,wait,wait. So you're telling me that you tried to make it night? Forever? Well then. Heh. To be honest that might not have been so bad. I don't think I've even seen the sun, and I-I think, I think the moons, quite nice actually. Large and white, just like my core. It couldn't be better. What are these... these, Elements of harmony that you speak of, though? Some sort of ...of tactile weapon?"

[doublethefun]

[smiling a little now]

The Elements of Harmony are the most powerful magic ponies know of. It is not truly a weapon in the traditional sense of the word; rather, it restores balance.

[wheatdos]

"Balance. Huh. Whad'ya know. You know, the way that you PO-NIES work is incredibly different than anything I've ever seen. Honestly. Like,will, transmitted into something, a tangible apparition, and these, and these elements of harmony, what are they supposed to be?

[He whispers dramatically.]

"I can already feel the knowledge being channeled into me.... It's fantassstiiiiiiiiiic, love.

[He sounds a little dorky. Okay, maybe more than a little.]

[doublethefun]

[that gets you a giggle] 'Tis also more commonly known as 'learning.'

The Elements of Harmony are integrity, mirth, faithfulness, compassion, generosity, and magic. Only by truly exhibiting these traits can one harness the power of the Elements.

[wheatdos]

[He suddenly stands up, and trips over his footing, getting back up to take out his journal. He doesn't really know what to do with this, so he uses it as a notepad because, well the role player has this very vague idea of what it can do.]

"Learning, learning. Right. It's truly invigorating. Hmm, alright alright... Let's see here. Uuuhhh, yes... integrrrrriiittttyyy, Meeeeeeeeeth, faaaaithfuuuuulness, com-compassion, generosity annnnndd magic..."

[Wait. Did he say meth?]

"Does this castle... have a- a um, [clears throat] a place with books?"

[doublethefun]

[asdlkf they're kind of like walkie talkies with captioning.

Anyway, she looks on before getting up herself.

A bit amused:] Yes, there is a library. I can show thee.

[and she'll start heading towards the stairs.]

[wheatdos]

"Great, great."

[He follows her. Oh god don't go to those stairs. Don't do it... Dooon't do it!]

"You know, for a moment there I thought that we weren't actually going to get along, and then I would have to eventually, oh I don't know, do something brash, but I think, You're actually not that bad, you and your PO-NY kind. You know, I think of you as being rather pleasant company, much more... more... fulfilling than a human. Not to mention, you can actually talk."

[doublethefun]

[nope, sorry. She hasn't tried one of those deathtrap elevator things yet.]

...Art thou not human?

[that's been bugging her for a bit now]

[wheatdos]

"Ohhh, I'd thought you'd never ask. I thought you didn't care about that."

[Referring back to when he told her he wasn't human, and she stated that she didn't care. He laughed a bit]

"Haha, I'm just, just messing with you. Nonononono, no, no never. Nope, I would- haha, no. No, I know I look this way, but I would never want to EVER be compared to one of those horrible things. You've reminded me that I've got to put this body through a few tests to see the extent of what it's... it's uhhh, capable of."
