//------------------------------// // Five // Story: Fourth wall be damned // by Scriber //------------------------------// Oh, of course! You're a colt! ...wait a tic... Some internal part of you shivers, but you decide to shrug it off. So. You're a dude, bro. Bro. Heh. Bro. Pony. Ok, get it together. “Twilight,” You begin in a surprisingly calm, saccharine tone, “...what exactly just happened?” “...uh...well, you seeeeeee~...-” Twilight responds, sheepishly rubbing the back of her head. “I maaayyyy have accidentally miscalculated in my channeling of your dimension's archaic energies, thus causing a bit of a blowback...” “...a bit.” You numbly affirm, still firmly in the grasp of the shock of the situation. “But don't worry!” Twilight suddenly says, holding her hooves out in defence. “I have a solution for this!

Your left eyelid twitches. “...Twilight, why am I...pink?” You ask in a flat tone as you feel your higher thought processes go on holiday at the same time. “...oh...t-that...well, y'see...you're still 'cooking', as it were.” “...cooking.” “Right! Since your body is newly formed, you have a brief window in time in which to choose what specific sort of pony you want to be!
