Anyone that's a pony today, steer clear of the carousel. I know that you can't really see anything unless you're not looking clearly at it, and even then it's usually just decayed. But everyone, especially those cursed into having hooves need to stay, away.

[Angua is patrolling the area around the carousel at approximately a 20 meter radius, not that you'll be able to tell. She may not be cursed for today, but she's certainly four-legged, and ready to pounce on trouble. She's not bothering to hide in the forest, so you may very well notice a rather large 'dog' circling round.]

[OoC: omg, this was supposed to go up earlier, I got distracted with having to test and vaccinate kittens that we're fostering, and please backdate this to waaaaay earlier.]

( private | lions + tigers + deities, oh my. )

[ somewhat after the initial private filter — ]

... do the deities usually show up on the network?

So Ami had a weird dream yesterday that she and everyone else turned into ponies. Was that actually real?

[She's actually in a state of disbelief, which is why she's asking. Speaking to people about talking Bonbons, pirates, deities, this place is starting to really get to her...]

Oh my, Ami can't believe she forgot! She was supposed to speak to the deities about getting a taxi ride home!

[Okay, no she doesn't believe she'll get these 'deities', nor will she get that taxi, but she has an airhead facade to keep up.]

[Well, hello, City. Have a creepy man standing near the creepy carousel. He's peering closely at the device, fiddling with it a little, then his eyes light up with interest once he realizes it's on. A new toy! When he speaks, his voice is raspy and obviously modified by the device on his face. He drags his s's out, just a touch.]

There we go. How kind of my kidnappers to leave me with this device.

Now, this entire scenario is inconvenient, to say the least. I was in the middle of something. But it would appear I'm hardly the only one in this situation, so I won't bother asking for a way out of the City; I'm sure nobody here has that particular answer. Rescue will come eventually. [Because he's way too valuable to MARS Industries, yup. They'll just send Storm Shadow in to break him out or something.]

In the meantime, I suppose I'll make myself comfortable, provided nothing in the water turns me into a talking, ah. Equine. Would anyone be so kind as to tell me what there is to do to while away our captivity?

Ah, and you can call me... [He smiles, corners of his eyes crinkling.] Doctor.

[Just a helpful doctor. There's nothing villainous about him at all, nope.]
