Hey, I’m at my desk now. I still have quite a few minutes until other students start showing up.
Alright, I went over it with Spike, and we both love a good adventure! What do you think you can make with that?
If it’s adventure you’re looking for, I can hardly think of a better film than Raiders of the Lost Ark. It’s set in our 1930’s about a college professor who’s also a renowned archeologist named Indiana Jones, and he’s trying to find the Ark of the Covenant before the Nazis (remember them?) can and use it for world domination (the Nazis, I mean).
I got it. Still, are you sure that won’t be too heavy for Spike?
Maybe the ending, but other than that, it’s one of the greatest action films of all time here.
I’m sure it is. Strangely enough, this Indiana Jones character sounds slightly familiar with another character from our world named Daring Do. She’s also an archeologist who hunts for treasure, though instead of Nazis, her arch-nemesis is the evil Ahuizotl, who also wants to use the treasures Daring Do hunts for to conquer the world.
Well, at least he sounds like he doesn’t want to commit genocide.
Toby, stop! Either way, I’ll trust your judgment on that. If this Indiana Jones is anything like Daring Do, I’m sure Spike and I will have a great time with it. In fact, there’s another friend of mine who’d probably enjoy it more than even Spike or I would.
Reallly? Is this a proposal to include a new friend in this?
Sure, if you’re up to it. Her name is Rainbow Dash, and while I got her into the Daring Do books, she’s become the biggest fan of them. I can probably meet with her for lunch and you can chat with her if you’re free.
That sounds fine. Sorry to change the topic so quickly, but I thought of a couple movies that Rarity and Pinkie Pie might enjoy. Given Rarity’s love of fashion, I just browsed through the Best Costume winners from the Oscars (they’re an awards ceremony honoring the best in film each year), and a couple that popped up that I can personally recommend are Stanley Kubrick’s Barry Lyndon and Baz Luhrman’s Moulin Rouge!. The last one’s a musical (a pretty flamboyant one too), so I thought that may be something both Rarity and Pinkie Pie can enjoy. I also thought of getting some movies that can be enjoyed by just about anyone, and so I also put Mary Poppins on hold. Legit one of the best films ever made.
It sure looks like you’ve been busy! Though I’m sure my friends and I will enjoy any film you recommend to them. Getting back on topic, I just want to be sure that you’re fine adding another pony to the list of those who know you exist.
I mean, sure! If I’m going to have to meet them all eventually, I might as well not dawdle around on it.
Okay, I’ll get in touch with her once you start with class. I’m sure that once she knows as much as she can, she may ask for some book and movie recommendations as well, so be prepared. Though, to be honest, she’ll probably spend a lot of time talking about herself.
No problem! I don’t mind learning about her, especially if you’re going to do the legwork in introducing me to her.
I suppose. She may also be as suspicious of you as Spike was when he first learned about you, maybe even more so. Just prepare for anything with her.
Okay. I think this may be a good spot to leave off. Some of my classmates normally come in around this exact time, so I’ll talk with you and Rainbow Dash in a few hours. See you!
I’m looking forward to it!
