Louis Keller has about the strangest day at work ever when Applejack arrives to rent a Bobcat. She's got an appointment, a credit card, and an honest face, but should ponies be trusted with heavy equipment?

Louis thinks so.

Now with a reading by No One And Nobody

Talk to someone on the telephone enough and you get an idea of what they look like.

And then you meet them for the first time, and they're not at all what you expected.

An ancient law of Canterlot states that each species present within the city must have an adequate diplomatic representation. There are no exemptions from it, even as far as interdimensionals aliens are concerned. As such, Anonymous the Human must pick up the mantle of an ambassador for humanity, even if he is the sole specimen. Even if he doesn't want to.

But it's not all bad news for him. After all, with such a responsibility also come some privileges. Personal guard detail, generous private mansion, all expenses covered by the crown. And of course, diplomatic immunity. Only that, thanks to the pony magic, the word immunity is taken much more seriously in Equestria.

Unicorns don't really understand American Football, but they do understand supporting a team . . . perhaps a little too well. Especially after a few beers.

A foals imagination is an amazing thing. They can mistake the simplest of things for monsters or other scary things. So, when Twilight Sparkle comes rushing to Princess Cadance saying there's a monster in her bedroom, it's only natural that they figure out a way to defeat it.

Written as a thirty minute writing exercise.

Twilight Sparkle has hidden the hottest pepper she could find in Princess Celestia's cake.

This is a bad idea.
