The story of a man, the assortment of friends he plays poker with, and the stories they trade.

A one-shot. For the sake of giving back.

What if you and all of your worldly possessions were in Equestira? Edward Anderson dies and befriends Charon the Ferryman who gives him a second chance at life in Equestria. Its irreverent, funny, and has a little bit of heart.

This is a story that I am writing mostly for myself to test the waters of shipping and portraying characters. It started as a self insert, but, as it turns out, I am REALLY bad at portraying myself so Ed is his own man. Please enjoy! Anybody is free to use any part of my story for their own gains.

[If anyone wants to continue or re-make this story, feel free. Copy it all or change it]

An unorthodox Jedi is found outside of PonyVille one week after crashing into Equestria. The Jedi is in exile and is hiding from the rest of the Galaxy. The only thing on his mind is how to remain hidden and to search for the truth about the Force. With a sarcastic wit and ponies to deal with, he attempts to live out his days in Equestria.

Justin is a human who has wandered through life without much of a goal. He also has a love for choral and jazz music, being trained in both. Once in Equestria, he must find out what it is to be human and what it takes to perform his music.

This story is written with music being integral to the story. Some songs are written in one part of the page while the story continues in the other side. This is to be listened to and read at the same time. Others are meant to simply be enjoyed and then talked about. While this is an unorthodox way of writing, i hope to bring a "soundtrack" like nature to the story while it is being performed. Also, i think that this will shed light on the subtleties of both the piece of music, and the characters that listen to them.

Enjoy!
