"Hello? Is this spell working?" Vinyl asks, poking the microphone.
"Yes, can't you see it on the monitor?"
She stares up at the screen "... Yup, I knew it all along... just testin' ya."
I groan and clutch my head "Just... leave please."
"Aye aye Mon seignior!" she salutes and trots out of my room.
"Goddess the ponies I have to deal with... anyways, ahem." I clear my throat "I am Midnight Felinus Mare, and I am making this mentally written journal to one, prove that I have existed, and two, keep record of my life here in Equestria. Allow me to start at the beginning."
I was traveling through the interdimensional space, the emptiness between existances, when a surge of harmonic energy shot out from the world I would soon come to know as Equis.
I landed, headfirst, on the top of what was known as Mt. Canterlot, knocking a number of memories and the like loose.
"Oh... my achin' head..." I groan, rubbing my head with a hoof
I pause and stare at the unfamiliar appendage "Hooves... did I always have hooves? Huh... can't remember..."
Survival instinct kicked in and I took stock of myself... whoever I was.
"Okay, let's see what I have... jacket, sword, Hat? Why would I need a hat?"
Okay, personal affects check. Physical form... four hooves, black fur, no horseshoes, wings- "I have wings! I'm a Pegasus! That's awesome! At least... I think It's awesome... huh, losing my identity is starting get whatever non-quantifiable standards into disarray... also, I apparently like to use big words."
I take flight purely by instinct and look around "Okay... town means others, others means someone knows who I am, knowing who I am helps... aha!" spying a castle below me, I fly towards it when another thing occurs to me "Okay... I know how to fly... wait, how can such small wings carry me?"
Suddenly my wings freeze and I start tumbling through the air and into a wall "Note... to self... don't ask stupid questions..." I mutter, a cloud of dust surrounding me.
Shaking the dust and debris off, I look around the room I was in "Okay, made it to the castle... albeit causing some damage, but nothing too bad... I hope."
"Who goes there?! Identify yourself!" Someone yells from behind me.
I hold my forelegs high "I don't know!"
There is a pause "What do you mean, you don't know?"
"I landed on my head on top of the mountain and I have no idea who I am or was!" I reply, starting to feel ridiculous.
A tallish, slender pony with a light blue mane walks up to me, deep teal eyes staring into mine "You... have amnesia?"
I nod, lowering my hooves "Yeah, I kinda forgot who I am... I remember that I can do some things like swordplay or cooking though..."
She hums and walks around me, seeming to appraise my person-er, pony "You... are telling the truth and yet... do you know who I am?"
I shrug and stare at her "I'm guessing by the fact that you live in a castle, you are of royal blood so... a princess? Duchess?"
She nods "I am a princess, yes. But do you know who I am? My name perhaps?"
I shake my head "Haven't got the slightest clue Princess. I'll fix the hole in your wall though, it was my fault anyways."
She shakes her head "Do not worry about it stranger... I am Luna, Princess Luna of Equestria."
I bow "I am... I have no idea what my name is, but if you would be so kind, would you bestow upon me a name for the time being?"
She smiles "Oh wonderful! I've always wanted the chance to give somepony a name! It was mostly my dolls when I was a filly but-" she blushes "Sh-show me your cutie mark please."
"I have no idea what that is."
She rolls her eyes and pokes my butt "This. It's... a card? A portal?"
I look at it and laugh "A duel monsters card! I know I love that game. So... what does a mark on my butt have to do with anything?"
"Cutie mark, and it shows what your best at, or your special talent. I suppose that 'Duel Monster' wouldn't fit... but your coat is as black as a starless night at it's peak..."
"Midnight? I like the sound of that."
She hums in concentration, staring at me "And... your voice is neutral yet you look like a mare..."
I look at myself "Mare? That sounds like a decent last name."
She nods "Midnight Mare... I dub thee Midnight Mare..."
I bow to her "Thanks for the name." I look behind me at the rubble "Uh... you wouldn't happen to have any glue would you?"
She shakes her head "No, but I can get you mortar."
"Thanks... I'll try putting these pieces in the right place..."
She leaves, melting into the darkness of the room.
"Midnight Mare... sounds like a pseudonym if I've heard one... have I ever heard any before?" I mutter, putting pieces together.
Several moments later she returns with a bored looking mare with a utilitarian haircut "Midnight, this is Maud Pie, she is in charge of repairs to the masonry around the castle, I thought that you could assist her in repairing the wall."
I shrug "Whatever you say Princess, your castle, your rules."
Luna nods and Maud walks over and stares at me with interest "Can I... help you?"
"Alien." she monotones, trotting over to the pile of rubble.
I rub my head "I... I can't properly create a response for that. I guess pegasi are like illegal aliens here?"
Luna shakes her head "No, pegasi aren't foreign to Canterlot... could it be that you are not from this world?"
I give her a flat look "Amnesia, remember? Oh, I'm also sarcastic apparently, a sarcastic pegasus who likes big words and Duel Monsters. I must be pretty popular at parties... I wonder if I like parties?"
Luna rubs her forehead "This is going to be a unique experience..."
