//------------------------------// // Log 4147: Things to do, places to go // Story: Equestrian Human // by TheMajorTechie //------------------------------// Okay then. First order of business is to find a place to stay. I could maybe bother Apple Bloom into letting us hang around for a bit in exchange for helping out, but she seems quite a bit crankier than the one in the show. Or maybe, we could go back to The Soup Can and get ourselves a job or something. It would maybe be enough to make up for the money from the inheritance that'll go into buying an apartment or something... Or we could just camp out in the pod for a freakin' long time and silently watch everything that happens around us, but then we'd probably get our portal terminated for a lack of progress. So yeah, probably gonna be best to hike back up to Canterlot and rent an apartment with my inheritance money. Speaking of which, I just realized that the portal dumped us out in Ponyville, while the pod is hidden away in a run-down alley. So apparently the beacon isn't completely accurate. Also, on top of that, there's now gonna be just a random portal stuck open next to Sweet Apple Acres. That may or may not be a problem, but I can probably message Ranell to close the thing up and get the tracking beacon to be more accurate. And now, to address a biggie: We need to somehow manage to get Equestria to want to trade with Earth. Or at least, with people. It'd get a bit awkward if somebody tried to open up trade with wild horses or something. ... ... Okay. Enough rambling, more walking. Avoid mildly awkward stares, continue lugging large backpack. Oh yeah. I forgot that there's a train station here. And yet, here I am, standing awkwardly in front of the ticket-pony. "Well?" He began, "You got any bits?" I held up a folder with my bank info. The stallion frowned. "Do you have a card?" he asked, gesturing at my folder. I shook my head. "Checks?" More head shaking. "Banknotes?" Sideways head-banging. "Sorry, miss. I don't think I can help you then." He replied, "Maybe withdraw some bits from the bank or somethin' before you come back." Well then.
