"How?" She asked the fudge colored stallion who was muzzle deep in the book he had taken off the shelf nearest him.
"What?" He responded, ignoring her to continue reading.
"You know what! You didn't have wings before, and now you do! How!??!"
He put the book down, and looked at his back in mock confusion. "Really? When did that happen?" he returned his attention to Twilight, "I guess I had some bad food poisoning or something." With a snort, the fudge colored stallion returned his attention to his book.
"AAaaaaagh!" Twilight yelled in anger, throwing up the papers she had brought out to document the strange phenomena of the earth pony turned pegasus pony. "Why? Why couldn't this have happened on nearly any other day!??! Faust above, you could have saddled me with this on nearly any day and I would be happy with it, but today? Today was my second attempt at a day off! I was supposed to be relaxing! I made ginseng tea! I never make that blend anymore, it makes me sleepy and relaxed! What!??!" She yelled at the suddenly cowed pegasus, who had crossed the room at her outburst and was trying to console her with a hoof placed upon her shoulder.
"Look, lady...I've always had wings. I've never been an earth pony, regardless of what you say. I'm sorry if the evidence doesn't support your memory, but again," He opened his wings, fluttering one in Twilights direction, "It's not like these are detachable. Face the facts. I am a pegasus. I remember always being a pegasus. Therefor, regardless of the fact that you remember me without wings, it doesn't change the fact that I do indeed have them. Right?"
"Well, no, but-"
"No buts lady, my wings are real, just the same as your horn is to you. Now, I know we got off on a bit of a bad start, what with me getting hit with that spell and acting like a donkeys rear to you. As I recall, I broke a vase of yours?"
Twilights head whipped towards his, and a terrifying grin forming on her fuzzy face. "Why yes...yes you did. That was a vase made by my mother. Irreplaceable. I expect you to pay for it."
"What? Come on, if it was home made, all we have to do is get your mom to make a new one, right? Besides, if it was homemade, it wasn't worth very much, why can't I just buy you another one?"
Twilight let out a snarl of anger, and swatted his hoof aside. "Not worth very much? What the hay are you even saying? Whats wrong with you? That was a vase made by my mother! It might not have much use to a stallion like you- and it might not have been the prettiest thing ever- but it meant a lot to me. All right? It meant a lot to me, and that's all that matters. And you aren't leaving until you pay it off, you got that?"
"What? But its just a vase!"
"It might be but you admitted to breaking it, did you not?"
"I...uh...yes?"
"Then you gotta pay the time for the crime. I hereby charge you with being my second personal assistant till a time as which I feel you have payed off your debt. Or I can just call the guard and charge you with destruction of property. You'll probably be put in the local jail for the night, and then forced to pay for the vase anyway."
Parzival let out a low whistle at the ultimatum. Hanging in the air before him was a text box, which he quickly read through.
Pay for the vase!
Twilight has voiced her concerns, and expects you to make amends!-Quest objectives
Make Twilight Sparkle happy, to the point where she believes your debt to her is payed in full.
-Quest fail
Refuse her offer.
-Rewards
25 bits.
-Additional information
If Twilight Sparkle gains enough respect for you, that in turn might become a friendship link! Regardless if you develop this or not, Twilight Sparkle with spread word of her opinion about you among her friends.
Even the most standoffish individual will warm up to you if their friends seem to like you. It might not always work out, but the possibility of it coming to pass is there.
Parzival re-read it twice, making sure he had the gist of it. If Twilight liked him, that apparently would make opening up other 'friendship links' all that much easier.
"I guess it's in my best interest to accept your kind and generous offer," he said, bowing his head slightly. "What dost thou wish of me, oh my master?" he asked, a smile curling at the edges of his mouth.
"What? Oh, I guess... I need a quill! Go... get me one?" Twilight stammered, obviously not expecting him to be so readily willing to comply.
Parzival looked around, searching for a quest arrow or a text box to give him a little more information.
"I... okay, where can I get one?" he asked.
"You can get one at the Sofa and Quills shop, they should have plenty in stock," Twilight replied, waving him outside. "Heres a couple bits, they shouldn't be that expensive..."
Parzival found himself standing alone outside the library. Looking around in bemusement, he spotted a storefront with a sofa and a quill on the sign out front. Chuckling in bemusement to himself, he entered and payed for a 'single quill'.
The tasks continued in this fashion for the remainder of the day, Twilight becoming increasingly frantic as she realized she didn't really have anything for him to do. She finally sent him off to retrieve a 'party cake' from a place called Sugar Cube Corner.
Certainly an odd name. Not as odd as a 'sofa and quill' store, but with a game like this you had to expect a certain level of insanity.
Opening the door to shop Parzival was met with an extraordinary level of insanity. A pink pony dragged himself inside, and the next few minutes were a whirling blur of pink, confetti, icing, and random ponies faces.
Parzival eventually logged out to the program node, marveling at the eccentricities of the pink bodied pony.
"I... don't even know how to deal with that one."
I had forgotten about this one, which is unfortunate since it's really entertaining.
5642713 just had to let you know that 'Ready Player One' is one of my all time favorite stories! i'm stoked that you wrote a crossover with it!
5642726
I didn't break 3k with the chapter, sorry...
yes!!!!
Great Done. I will came back in next months.
6047535
Honestly, I rushed it to release the chapter on a deadline. The next chapter I'm going to have Parzival reflect on the party, going into more detail.
I haven't read the book yet, or will read this fiction until it's completed. Besides, there COULD be the possibility that the users of this site that read the book could spoil the rest of your story as rats. ALSO, December 15, 2017 is the release date for the film adaptation that is being worked on by Steven Spielberg and his dream team, Warner Bros., DreamWorks Pictures, Village Roadshow Pictures, RatPac Entertainment, Amblin Entertainment, and De Line Pictures.
6376667 Thanks for the deadline, I'll try to have this done by then.
6376751 Okay. Also, are you working on Chapter 7? And how many are you making?
6376758
I don't have a plan for a designated chapter count. But I do have an end in sight. Maybe 20, to 50k. Might reach that. This is by no means a one shot, but I don't want it to drag it on for too long.
6376799 Okay. Also, are you planning on seeing the Ready Player One film and MLP film in a few years?
6376804
I... don't understand. Of course I'm going to see Ready Player One, I'm a huge fan of the book. As for 'mlp film'? You mean the third one thats coming out later this year, right?
6376813 No. A few years ago, Hasbro said something about they and Allspark Pictures creating a 2017 film. On August 5 of this year, it was announced that the distributor is Lionsgate, and that a new character is voiced by Kristin Chenoweth.
6376820 Oh. Ok. Didn't know about this. Sure. I just hope they start making movies that don't focus entirely on the Canterlot High universe.
6376829 If the two worlds became one, where ponies and their human selves coexist. How would you feel, if there were headcanons centered around that?
6376835
I don't know. I guess it would have to depend on how they handled it. Personally it sounds like a bad idea to me, but thats just because a permanent solution like that doesn't seem like it would make that much sense. Or are they just going to sweep the whole 'humans eat meat' thing under the rug? Wouldn't surprise me, honestly.
6376874 Okay.
There's a fic over in Spacebattles forums with the same name, it's a crossover of "Worm'" (a superhero web novel) and a korean manwa called "The Gamer". So far that's the only thing I've been finding on my web searches. Maybe if you named the authors I could find this book? It looks like an interesting read. Like this story.
6673190
Story title and Author name is in the title description.
About goddamn time there is a crossover for this
6047535
Because the next chapter is Pinkie Pie centered~
