I wake up from my bed, my welcome party was yesterday but other than Rarity, Fluttershy and Pinkie Pie, didn't exactly feel welcomed.

While Fluttershy apologise to me for Rainbow's behavior, she also reprimand me for what happened, I guess my retort is very personal to Dash.

Sigh, I just wanna go home.

As much as I want to go home, I realized until then I have to learn how to adjust living in Ponyville in the meantime.

I decided to go to go for a walk through Ponyville. maybe I am being too judgemental of these ponies, Rarity is an example, I didn't expected her to be kind with me due to her overdramatic personality.

Walking through the streets of Ponyville, ponies either glare at me or just go back to their homes and barricade their doors or something. Yesterday doing that stunt in a middle, terrible idea but fuck you she's annoying.

After an hour of walking and trying to interact with the ponies, with failure. I ended up in a field, choosing to sit down and take a break, getting bored I pulled out my old DS I brought out, made sure it is fully charged.

I started playing Super Mario Bros DS, trying to replay the entire game. It was a blast you can never go wrong with a game like this.

I didn't notice someone was watching me play as I was focus on my game, I noticed their presence when it “woooahhh.” in fascination.

Confused when I heard that, I turn to the direction and notice a very familiar colt from a popular series made by the fans. Button Mash.

“Button Mash, right?” I ask, he jumped back in surprised.

“H-how did you know my name mr?” he said nervously as a sweat drops.

“Pinkie Pie thinks I am a psychic so just go with that.” I shrugged, going with Pinkie's guess.

“You’re a psychic? That's so cool!” he said excitingly as he jumped before landing. “Also, is that a Hoofheld game? I never seen something like that before?” he points at my DS as he tries to get a closer look at it by leaning forward and narrowing his eyes.

“Oh this?” I bring my DS closer to him so he could see it better. “You are right about being a video game console, its called a DS, it stands for Developers System or Dual Screen.” he was surprised to see colours on my DS.

“it has colours!? My GameColt is only in green and black, no other hoofheld games have anything like this!” he said amazed by my DS.

I chuckle. “Where I come from, we are pretty advance in technology.” then I thought of something. “Here, wanna give it a try?” I held my DS infront of him.

“Wow! Really?” I nodded. “Thank you monkey man!” he bounce around in excitement before taking it from me, I'll let the name slide, he is just a kid.

I was having fun watching him playing my DS, I spent a good hour with him. Of course he is to return home, he thank me for letting him play my DS as he runs home.

I feel a little hurt when he mentions home, but besides that I really enjoy my time with him. My most enjoyable moment since ending up in Equestria.





I tried to talk to the ponies of Ponyville, no progress at all, the flower trio fainted by the sight of me, but they pretty much faint at every single thing, I won't be surprised if they faint by their own shadow once.

Sitting on a bench, trying to think of anything to do. A pony comes up and sits right next to me. I turn to look to see a familiar minty coloured unicorn, Lyra Heartstrings.

Despite what the fandom will say, she doesn't seem to recognise my kind. I mean being realistic, it was expected since I am the first and only human in Equestria right now.

She turns to look at me curiously. She sees the way I sit, she then shuffle around a bit before managing to get into a position that started a trend that Lyra loves humans.



“So what creature are you exactly?” she asks as she looks over me in curiosity as if examining me.

“To answer your question, I am a human, or homo sapiens if you want the scientific name. My name is Jumper by the way.” I answered as I point a thumb towards me, smiling.

“Nice to meet you Jumper, I saw you at the party yesterday.” her face then becomes sympathetic. “I am sorry about what happened with Dash at the party though, she is pretty cocky but she means well.”

“Its in the past, no need to cry over it.” I waved it off. “I already know your name is Lyra Heartstrings.” she isn't surprised.

“That’s to be expected from you.” she grins “You are a psychic as Pinkie said, what kind of magic do you have?” she leans her head towards me, expecting an answer.

And an answer I give, though not the one she was expecting.

“None.” that's all I say, she was taken aback and confused as she leans her head back.

“None? Then how do you know so much about us if you have no magic?” she asks, extremely confused about how it is possible.

“Pinkie isn’t on point with her guess.” I turn to look up at the beautiful sky. “Very far from it.” I contemplate whether I should tell her or not, but later I decide against it until later.

We begin to talk about other things, my home, technology, history, basic stuff. She really enjoys talking with me and vice versa, she is really interested to know about me. I think I am shaping her to fandom Lyra at this point.

“Say? why do you not like Pinkie’s parties Jumper?” I was surprised by this question.

“What makes you say that?” I tilt my head and look at her in confusion.

“Well, before you left the party you said that you never wanted to be there in the first place.” she answers. Oh, right that.

“Oh... That’s not what I meant by that.” I said grimly as my head drop to look at the ground. “What I meant is... I never wanted to be in Equestria in the first place.” Lyra's jaw drop upon hearing this.

“Why do you not want to be in Equestria?” she ask in concern as leans closer to me. “Equestria is a great place, what’s not to love about it?” she asks trying to figure out why.

I stayed silent for awhile before answering. “Don’t get me wrong, Equestria can be a great place. Its just that I wasn’t here by choice, now I am struck here with the chances of returning home being very low to nonexistent.” my tone starts to get weaker. “I am now in a foreign land, alone and filled with ponies that judge you base on the fact you are not a pony.” Lyra was dumbfounded from my last sentence.

“Hey! We are not racist, what makes you that?” she taps a hoof on my chest as the distance between my face and her is shorten.

I just stare at her with a brow raise. “Zecora.” I just said. Lyra reeled back before she went over and cover my mouth with her hoofs.

“Don’t say that!” she urgently shushes to me. “We don’t speak of her name here.” she turns to look around me in fear.

“That is an example, besides she hasn’t done anything bad to the town in the times she visits. Y’all didn’t bother to know her, if you had you would’ve known that she was trying to shop around town like any living civilise being.” she was surprised by my knowledge “Tell me that it isn’t racist?” I flatley said. She contemplates before her ears droop as she looks down in shame.

“Well, if you put it like that...” she rubs her hoof when she put the pieces together.

“I guess I shouldn’t go to hard on you ponies, you are a prey species by nature so its instinct to be suspicious of newcomers. Doesn’t change the fact that its inconvenient or detrimental to the other side. It would be difficult to make friends or a doctor will refuse to treat a life threatening condition from you because you are different.” she seem to be deep in thought as we both stayed silent. I thought of something as I smirk and turn to her.

“Well, I gonna go now, I really do enjoy  talking to you. Don’t think about what I said to much. See you soon Lyra, good luck with your candy maker marefriend.” Her face turns red hot.

“Me and Bonbon aren’t a thing!” she yells as she jumped, extremely flustered.

“Yeah keep telling yourself that.” I chuckled. We both wave each other goodbye as we went on our separate paths.

As I walk back to Fluttershy's cottage. I thought to myself.

Maybe I can tolerate being here for awhile.
