Train rides and conversations, crystal empire part 2

As I stepped onto the train, everypony looked at me and froze, I just inwardly chuckled as I showed my tickets for the train ride.

"No need to be so worked up you guys really, just here to ride the train." I spoke as I rolled my eyes and gave a nonchalant shrug.

I then walk past the mentally frozen ponies as I walk into a private section of the train.

"...what's taking them so long?" Seriously, I would have thought either rainbow dash or pinkie would have popp- oh there they are!

"So, what took ya so long? The train almost left without you all." I asked the six ponies with genuine curiosity.

"Why are you acting so buddy buddy with us? I mean, aren't you a villain? Why would you want to help us?" Rainbow avoided my question with another.

"....if I answer this, will you answer the question I already asked if you?" I inquired the rainbow pony to which she groaned before nodding.

"Alright then, I'm helping you because, the crystal empire is important to the balance to this world, yea, I'm a villain, but I don't want the world to end now do I?" I gave a half lie, the crystal empire may not be needed for Equestria to properly have its balance, but it is definitely a big help balancing out evil and good, and it will a safe haven for when I begin the next faze of operation Egg-Koopa empire, heh, taking out an empire just to build my own, ....meh, at least I'm not mind control ING others to do my bidding.

"Besides, if any villain is going to take you lot out, it's going to be me, my main focus will be the safety of the crystal empire, getting rid of villainous competition is just an added bonus." I gave another half lie, I have no interest in defeating the main six, at least not permanently, just need to give them some character development, I wonder what the voidlings think would be a good way to give character development?

The six looked at me in surprise before surprisingly Fluttershy walked up to me, as she opens her mouth to speak, I interrupt her.

"Y'know, I'm not surprised that you would be the first to calmly speak to me, Kindness, well, I guess I could have expected Laughter to speak to me first, anyways, please, ask away." I spoke as a means of letting Fluttershy stall to gather herself before speaking without making myself suspicious.

"O-oh, um, I just wanted to um, know if you could, um, tell us about yourself?" Fluttershy asked with surprisingly little amounts of shyness, I guess I shouldn't be surprised, I am not a pony after all.

The other ponies look at Fluttershy in surprise before rainbow starts to speak. "I don't think he's going to te-" "Sure!" I interupted rainbow as she and the others looked at me in surprise, wow, there is alot of surprise going around right now, huh?....wait..I'm breaking the fourth wall right now aren't I?...meh, probably due to Sans's jacket, I'll just focus on the story, as I look back at the ponies, it seems pinkie is the only one to notice the slight pause on the story as I give her a subtle signal that I would explain later as she nods to me.

"What?" Rainbow, along side her friends spoke at the same time as they seemed confused by my response to Fluttershy's question.

"I said 'sure' meaning that I'm going to tell you a bit about me, so, who wants to ask the first question?" I asked as I saw pinkie immediately put her hoof in the air, yup, should have expected that.

"Alright, Laughter, what is your question, also make sure to speak with normal speed so I can actually understand the question, and before you waste your question wondering how I knew you would do that, I have a mic I placed in your mane yesterday, no you wouldn't have noticed me placing it there as I used a portal, anyway, what was your question?" I asked all in one breath, huh, guess I don't need to breath, neat.

"Huh, welp, thanks for the warning Stagy! I'll keep that in mind, as for my question, do you have any friends? And if so, when will we meet them?" Pinkie asked with her usually energy, only speaking with a normal-ish speed because of I told her before hand.

"Huh, I honestly expected you to ask what my preferences for a party would have been, anyway, yes, I do have some friends, but not in the way you think, here it's better if I just show you." I spoke as I began taking my sans jacket off before tossing it into the air and spoke.

"C'mon out, Comedian!" I spoke as the jacket began to glow a patience blue and standing where the jacket once was, there is now a relatively short skeleton wearing the jacket as well as black shorts and pink slippers as he looked around the train booth before looking at me

"Is it just my train of thoughts, or are you letting out some skeletons from the closet." Sans punned as the six ponies looked at him in surprise sans looked at them and gave his trademark smile.

"Heya, don't you know how to greet a new pal? Come here and shake my hand." Sans spoke as pinkie nodded and reached outfit Sans's out stretched hand before....
"PFFFFFHHHTT!!!" the sound of a whoopie cushion came from Sans's hand as he lifted it to reveal a whoopie cushion in his hand.

"Ah, the old whoopie cushion in the hand trick, its always funny, the names sans, sans the skeleton, nice to meet ya." Sans spoke as pinkie rolled on the ground with laughter as rainbow tried to hold back a chuckle due to conflicting emotions, how do I know that?... Oh, right, the whole facial expression ability, I really should have another read on the guide.
