???? Spell [4th Wall Action/Video]

[friendyousohard]

Yes yes yes yes yes yes yes!

[Leaping gleefully around in the air like an idiot at the sudden regaining of her actual body is... a purple unicorn.]

My real body, and my magic! Everything's back to normal! Oh this is terrific, there's so many new things to do. Where do I even start?

[She claps her hooves together, grinning wildly (and just slightly manically) at the prospect for a moment... then she notices something behind her. A very large, menacing looking shadow.]

Hey, what is... [She turns around, and her eyes practically pop out of her head. And well they might, given what she's seeing...]



What... the... hay?

It's basically what it sounds like - some Sorceress had the [spoken sarcastically] brilliant idea to try to get an entire dimension's history to collapse in on itself.

A group of mercenary types called SeeDs stopped her, but the backlash is randomly bringing things, including people, from other dimensions to and from that world.

[friendyousohard]

...Okay, the fact that she could use that kind of magic in the first place is kind of scary. The ends to which she apparently put it are just plain absurd. No wonder so much crazy backlash is happening.

Hmm... If time's involved, then... what's the last thing that happened for you at home?

[marearcana]

Shiny and Cadence just left on their honeymoon.

[friendyousohard]

Then you're ahead of me. The last thing I remember is the Mare-Do-Well incident. I guess that would make you my future self.

Fortunately, Fluttershy's already filled me in on most of what happened in between there, though it's still odd to think of Shining getting married...

[marearcana]

Well, at least you have more warning about that than I did.

Wait, no, you must lose memories sometime before then. That's inconvenient.

[friendyousohard]

Extremely. It makes this whole thing seem utterly pointless. A real shaggy dog story.

[marearcana]

If only I had an actual reason for being here beyond random chance.

[friendyousohard]

Don't we all wish. But, nothing doing, I suppose.

[marearcana]

I guess so.

...so where is this?

[friendyousohard]

A place called Johto. It's part of a world where creatures called Pokemon live side-by-side with humans. I assume you've met those where you are, they seem to be pretty much everywhere.

[marearcana]

You'd be right about that. I can't say I've heard of anything called a Pokémon before, though.
