"Well, that's all of us. Although I don't understand why I had to introduce Fluttershy, she coulda done it herself." Applejack said. "She has met Twilight before. This ain't any different."
"Oh... Well she can't remember me... it's like I'm meeting someone new, but not really because she looks like someone I know." Fluttershy said.
That immediately caught my attention. I wasn't listening to the other girls when they were introducing themselves, or even when Applejack apparently had to introduce Fluttershy, but what Fluttershy said about that got me thinking.
Twilight is still Twilight. She just got a clean slate. She doesn't remember anything about her old life, and she'll be happy here until she gets her memories back. Then she'll probably get depressed again. That's the last thing I want to happen to her. I hate seeing a friend sad.
"Um... Can any of you tell me about myself before I lost my memories? I must have had it pretty good to have people like you with me." Twilight asked.
I can't tell her. It's not that I don't want to, but my telling her would only make her remember faster. My mouth has already caused enough trouble.
"Can you tell me where I lived? Did I go to school? Was I a good student? Or was I like one of those that can barely pass? I think that's a thing... I'm not very sure." Twilight said. "But I want to hear all about where I lived!"
I know you're happy back in Equestria, after all. That's your home. And I can understand that you're happier there than you could ever be here.
"How can I say this...?" Rainbow Dash started. "You... You're not from here."
"I'm not?" Twilight asked.
"Unfortunately, that's the truth dar- I mean Twilight." Rarity said. I was impressed that she caught herself before she actually said darling. Although she technically did, she didn't let herself finish.
"I didn't have to go far just to get to school did I?" Twilight asked. "That seems pretty hard to do if you ask me."
"You misunderstood us." Rarity said. "I think what Rainbow Dash meant to say is that you were visiting us."
Twilight looked more confused than ever. "Am I a world traveler like a guy I saw on TV not too long ago?" She asked. "I wonder what that would be like. Twilight the World Traveler... that has a nice ring to it."
Applejack laughed to herself. "Ya don't know how true that is, Twilight. You sure traveled to this world several times."
"What did you say... Applejack?" Twilight asked.
Applejack shrugged. "I just... I meant... You aren't... You belong in..."
And then Rainbow Dash stepped in front of Applejack.
"Why can't you tell her that she lived in Equestria?! It's not that hard Applejack!" She shouted.
No one noticed the importance of what Rainbow said, until Twilight asked,
"What's Equestria?"
Well now I don't have to tell her. Someone did it for me.
