Today is the day, since I unpleasantly discovered that I am going to be staying here permanently.
Since I am going to be living in this world for the rest of my natural life, I am going to have to learn about this world as a whole. Even if it means going to the Golden Oaks Library where Twilight Sparkle resides.
Fluttershy's books have helped, but her cottage is not a library. I'll have to face Twilight, even if it means having to sit through a million questions.
I started to walk through Ponyville, I ignore the ponies around me. I am making my way to the library, every step make me sweat abit in nervousness.
Then, I finally see the library in the distance. I quicken my pace until I reach the front door.
I lift my arm to knock until I realized.
This is a public library. I simply just open the door and let myself in.
I entered the library, and then I got smacked in the face by a book and then multiple books fell on top of me
“Oh my gosh! I am sorry!” A female voice said. I pull the book off of my face to see Twilight Sparkle staring at me.
“Oh, Jumper! Surprised to see you again, I hope you aren't sad about what happened a week ago.” She said as she look at me with a sympathetic look.
“Oh, I am sad about it. The pain may never go away but I have to accept it. Anyways this is the second time I've been smacked in the face by a book.” I plainly said. Twilight smiled sheepishly.
“I was just reorganizing the library using levitation, it suddenly stopped working for some reason. What brings you here Jumper?” Twilight asked.
“I am here to read some books from the library, what else is there to do in the library?” I scratch my head. “Since I'll be here permanently, I need to learn about customs, laws, anything really to help me adjust living here.” Twilight's ears perks up.
“Well... since you're here.” She then levitates a scroll and quill as she put on a very wide smile. I gulp, knowing what's about to come.
Here we go.
Session
Me and Twilight looked at each other as we sit down. I speak up first.
“I think you already know what am I. I am a human, or homo sapiens if you prefer the scientific term.” She nodded as she writes down on the scroll.
“Where do you come from Jumper?” She asked.
“I came from the country of The United States of America in the state of Florida.” She writes them down.
“Could you tell me more about your species?” I nodded.
“We are pretty much the dominant species back home as we are the only sentient beings. Our lifespans are an average of 70 years but we can extent that with modern medicine and we are adaptable. We are everywhere in our planet, with 195 countries, each having their own culture and with a total population of over 8.1 billion.” Twilight jaw dropped in shock.
“8.1 billion!? How did you humans have so many!? Our population can barely reach a million!?” I shrugged.
“Advance technology. We don't have strength like earth ponies, we can't fly like pegasus, we can't use magic like unicorns. We use our brains and create things to make things easier or more efficiently. Our advance agriculture can fend all our people while our advance medicines extent our lifespans and make us live longer.” She scribbles all of that shit down.
“How advance is your technology compared to us.” I snatch my head.
“Pretty confusing, comparing our technology to your. I'll say its a combination of the mediaeval era, the industrial revolution, and the 1980s I think? By the way our current year is 2023.” I ended. Twilight again gobbling all of it up.
We talked for awhile as I exchange a bunch of stuff about humanity, Twilight's scroll is long as hell. Then its my turn to ask her questions about this world, apparently this world is named Equus, I begin learning stuff that I have never knew when I watched the show and learning their customs.
I've learned that further north in Griffonia there's apparently a land of the undead but Twilight dismisses it as a myth.
Yeah considering that this is the world of magic, I'll take that with a grain of salt.
“So, uh yeah I think we are done here for now.” I stand up. “Welp, see you tomorrow.” I quickly try to walk away not wanting to stay here much longer.
“Wait!” I stopped much to my chagrin. “I have one more thing to do.” Twilight walks up to me.
“And what is that?” I turn to look at her.
“I want to test your magic immunity, see how much it extents than just being immune.” She replied. I groan.
“Promise that after this, it will be everything for today?” She nodded.
Welp here we go.
Experimentation
We were testing the extents of my magic immunity to see if there's more to it, there was more.
Turns out I can cancel spells, when I touched a levitated book it dropped to the ground.
We have also found out I can redirect magic bolts, basically I can simply slap it away. Really useful if I have ever gotten into a fight with a magic user, I just have to catch it.
This immunity does have down sides, when I said its immune I mean immune. If I am gravely injured then I can't be healed with healing magic, sucks when your body is fragile, healing magic would've been super useful.
On the bright side cockatrices can't turn me into stone when they see me.
This magic immunity could explain why Pinkie couldn't sense me with her pinkie sense and her ability to somehow know things she shouldn't have. My guess is that Pinkie's abilities are their own unique magic because of generations living in a rock farm. Its probably why Twilight couldn't find magic in her when she test her in "Feeling Pinkie Keen".
Anyways I am tired as shit from answering Twilight long as questions. I was given a library card by Spike so I can burrow some of the books in the library for me to read, really tired as shit so I went to bed.
Today has been really knowledgeable, learned some slurs I could use as a last resort in case if a pony I encounter is a bitch.
Is it me or am I forgetting something?
