[doublethefun]

[there is an extremely distracted pony in the lobby today. It looks like she's (slowly) making her way outside, but the ipad floating in front of her seems to be causing her all sorts of consternation. Heck, she's baring her teeth at the thing and practically hissing at it.]

Laugh at me, will thee? I shall destroy thy shelter, thou pestilent porcine with thy undeserved pomposity. [grrrrr] I have the grasp of it now, smug swine. Thou wilt -

[she stops moving completely. She would be utterly still, but for her tail and mane flowing in the nonexistent wind. There might be a crackle of latent electricity in the air, and it might be getting a bit darker.

A barely audible hiss:] I despise thee.





[...somepony might have somehow picked up Frustrated Aves.]

[Spike has wandered through from the kitchen and just pauses to...stare at this]

...Uh. Princess Luna? [It's not good when you get pissy. Please don't make the weather go crazy]

[doublethefun]

[an ear swivels in his direction, but she doesn't stop glaring at the screen in front of her.]

Greetings, young Spike.

[huffythedragon]

Are you...okay?

[He steps a little closer, but gives enough distance so he can run for cover if she snaps]

You seem a little mad.

[doublethefun]

[she takes a deep breath and exhales slowly. At least the glaring is a little less now.]

'Tis merely this insufferable game. [and she floats the tablet over so Spike can take a look-see.]

[ Aaaand there's a Twilight there, too.

Cocking an eyebrow. ]

Priiiincess?

[doublethefun]

[she glances up quickly, but goes back to her game. And she still sounds pretty pissed off.]

What is it, Twilight Sparkle?

[checklist]

Are you... all right?

[ She also might be... edging closer to try and see what that weird flat thing is. ]

[doublethefun]

[gritting her teeth and staring at the tablet]

I am perfectly well.

[Johanna is just going to star for now, because WHAT?! The mane and the tail floating on their own alone was something to be confused about, but the talking!? The first time was confusing enough. She's sitting down in a chair some feet away from Luna, bitting a nail and just looking like she's thinking about helping. Of course she just wants to stab the thing and see if they bleed rainbow, but after that spark in the air she's just going to watch for a moment first.]

[doublethefun]

[and Luna's too pissed off to notice if there's anypony nearby, especially if they're not drawing attention to themselves.

Instead, she growls at the screen again. This time, it's accompanied by a frustrated stomp of her hoof - one that results in a neat spiderweb of cracks in the flagstone.]

[not_like_the_rest]

[WOW! That really made Johanna jump. She finds herself on her feet, a littler more freaked out then before. She's in a ready stance a knife out and ready before he even thinks about it. Stupid games had awoken her killer reflexes. She's still not sure that she wants to relax after she notices it though. That was NOT a normal horse.

Finally, Johanna decides to try something, just putting the knife behind her.]

Hey, the screen can't hear you.

[doublethefun]

[her head jerks up and. Oh. Oops.

Her ears droop a bit and she looks almost embarrassed.] Ah. I apologize for disturbing thee.

[though she still gives a nasty little glare at the floating tablet]

[craggyfaced]

My Lady? Is there trouble?

[Defensive Mode GO]

[doublethefun]

[tensely:] Nay, Sir Durge. 'Tis a matter of little consequence.

[...stupid bucking pigs]

[craggyfaced]

...

Who were you speaking to?

[doublethefun]

[there's a pause, and now she sounds somewhat embarrassed.]

...A most frustrating game.

[bornofwisdom]

Laughing at you? ( someone's exploring! and her eyes find the iPad ) Are you playing a game?

[doublethefun]

[an ear swivels in her direction, but Luna doesn't look up. Too busy glaring at the screen.]

Yes. 'Tis a most insufferable excuse of a game. [and yet, she's still trying to get that damn pig.]

[bornofwisdom]

What game is it? ( she approaches a bit cautiously, because angry animals aren't always easy to deal with. )

[3_butterflies]

L-Luna...?

[doublethefun]

[clipped and terse:] What is the matter, Fluttershy?

[3_butterflies]

[squeak! scary princess ;; ]

N-n-nothing! I'm sorry!

[cantacquityou]

If this doesn't sound familiar...

[doublethefun]

[she doesn't pause in her game]

Does it, Miles Edgeworth?

[cantacquityou]

What, may I ask, is to blame for such animated frustration?
