[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]

"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."

[doublethefun]

Perhaps thou shouldst meet a few more afore judging all of them quite so vehemently; they are the most populous species in the castle, after all.

[aaand she'll just start clip-clopping up those stairs]

[wheatdos]

"Yeah, well I'm not all that interested love."

[He sighs and laughs, adjusting his tie]

"But if you really want to know- I'd be glad to tell you. You see, I'm... I'm a c-"

[OH CRAP NO STAIRS GAH WHY DO THEY EXIST. Wheatley has to get up the first 5 before tumbling down violently, in the entire dramatic rolling and flailing and everything. His glasses, which were already broken, shatter in one lens and go flying off as he falls backwards. He lands on his back, at the foot of the staircase, looking like a wreck]

"Oh...Auug...ugh...uuua...ahh..."

[K.O'ed.]

[doublethefun]

[oh...shit. Damn, Wheatley. So dramatic.

A few flaps of her wings and she's standing over him, looking concerned.]

Art thou [a pause] relatively unhurt?

[wheatdos]

[No use. The dude is floored. He's got little squiggles for eyes.]

"...Oh god, that... that feels, well that feels really awful actually."

[Orrr... not?]

"...What- what are these supposed to be!? Some sort of glaring death trap of doom??!?!"

[He sits up, squinting due to lack of glasses.]

[doublethefun]

Nay. They are merely stairs.

[she looks about, gathering up the broken pieces of the glasses with her magic and makes it whole again.

Floating it towards him.]

This is actually a very enjoyable story. You mind if I draw something based off of this just cause?

[wheatdos]

[He sighs, and pushes his hair back, grabbing at the glasses and putting them on. Oh, no cracks? He can actually see]

"Hey,heyhey, could you use some of that floaty magic to get me up these death trap stairs? Just, for now."

course not! I'd love to see it! :D

[doublethefun]

[a wingshrug]

'Tis a small matter. [and now he's surrounded in blue glowy magic and trailing along after her as she ascends the stairs]

What wert thou saying afore the fall?

Funny enough, your roleplay is actually one of the most enjoyable I've experienced so far!

[wheatdos]

"Uh... eh? I was saying something?"

[He pauses for a moment]

"Oh yes... rightrightright. I... I was talking about myself wasnt I? Well, I'm a- a... okay, imagine this. You see, I'm an... uh... a- Imagine a sort of, uhhhh... collection of vast vast intelligence put into a tiny concentrated robotic ball and then left to assist in managing a vast place, controlling every aspect of that place. A place- a place as large as this castle- no, bigger! Well actually I don't know how big this castle is, really, but the place was probably bigger than that..."

[He seems satisfied]

"That- that would be me."

aksdjfa awwww. I'm really enjoying this thread too!

[doublethefun]

[robots, robots. Do ponies have robots? They've got trains, so maybe there's an idea of robots?]

Then...thou wert an automaton in an assistant managerial position?

Great to hear. :D

[wheatdos]

[He stares at her]

"...Yyyyyyyy..."

[He squints]

"..Yyyy..."

[He's still squinting]

"...yyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyes... I think. Yes! Yes, yeah... something like th- yes. Definitely."

[doublethefun]

[a smirk]

Thou dost not seem very certain.

[wheatdos]

"What, no of course it's certain. In fact, it's-it's the most certain thing I've probably ever said here, I swear.

[He looks around, putting his hand in his lab coat pockets.]

"You see. I was pretty impressive though. Still am, haha. But if you'd see me then, love, you'd be much more impressed, I guarantee it."

[doublethefun]

[snerk]

Perhaps thou wilt be more impressive when thou learnest to work thy own legs.

[and yup, they're at the library. She'll set him down as she opens the door and enters the room.]

[wheatdos]

[He lands on his feet shakily. He can walk, but he constantly trips over his own feet. Looking around, he laughs a bit at her joke, and looks around]

"...Oh, oh this- this is FANTASTIC. All- all the books! Do you see all of these books, do ya see them? So many books. So, so many. There's got to be some good philosophy reads here, maybe-maybe Aristotle or- or Isaac Newton! Confucius! Einstein! Geniuses I have never even heard of!"

[A pony from Equestria probably has never heard of those names, but he doesn't think of that. He sounds so happy for a moment- but then he clears his throat TRYING to look serious.]

"And- and a way to get out of here, too. Can't forget that- that's, that's important."
