Stallion's Day Out, part one!
The other day, dear readers, I decided to ask my fellow boy pony Score what being a stallion in Dream Valley was like (you know, since the others all consider me an eggheaded nerd for hanging around the girls all the time, and enjoy frequently stuffing me into a closet for fun). Upon my asking, Dream Valley's resident football player told me this odd tale...
Ehhh, what can I say, Tornado? It was just another one of Those days...
You know, we stallions have it pretty good here at Dream Castle... three square meals a day, a roof over our heads, the mares doin' all the baby raising and diaper-changing. Sure, there is the mandatory military service to the crown, and we each have to pull our weight around here. But the cool thing is we get to leave the hard stuff- like thinking- to the women folk. But it can get really boring around here sometimes, doing nothing but hanging out. But sometimes, somethin' interesting does happen around these parts. Lemme tell you about one such day....
It started like an ordinary Sunday, and me and some of the guys were hanging out in the dungeon (our own little private stallion cave in the lower levels of Dream Castle). Tex and Salty were over shooting a most awesome game of pool, while Barnacle and Chief were playing a cards over in the corner. As forr myself, I was totally racking up a high score on our newest arcade machine from the human world- a game called Centipede, I think- when Salty looked up from what he was doing, and commented;
"Dude."
Looking up at his friend from the card game, Barnacle added. "Dude!"
"Duuuuuuuuuude!" Chief agreed, as the three of them looked to Tex. Shooting the eight ball into the side pocket, our dear bud looked up and finally added the very deep and profound statement.....
"Dude"
Having all come to such a consensus, my most excellent and awesome amigos had decided they were bored, and were going to try something different. Sneaking our way over towards the Castle's mechanic garage, we saw our mechanic-type buds Four Speed and Trucker weren't currently not on the premises. So we did the proper stallion-like thing, and immediately started messin' with everything in the place we didn't understand. Of course, being the totally awesome dudes we are, we hardly got ourselves in any trouble at all!
Okay, I mean sure... Salty cried out "Dude!" when he got a face full of oil from that one gadget. And Salty won't be sayin' "Dude" for awhile after where he shot himself with that hot glue gun. Be we all got a totally righteous laugh when Barnacle made that hilariously obscene gesture with that screw driver at that picture of Paradise hangin' on the wall, totally busting a gut while going "Duuu-uuuuu-uuuu-ude!"
Anyway, that's when we spotted IT... a wild and crazy machine, which Four Speed and Trucker musta put together from the odds and ends junk layin' around the castle. A totally giant manifold and smoke spewin' engine on a pair of giant wheels! That dragster and an awesome flamin' chassis, a crazy eight ball clutch on the end of a long floor shift, and the wildest pair of fuzzy dice we ever did see! Anyway, the guys all piled into that wild ride, and took off. I didn't goo off with em', of course... I still wanted to knock Ice Crystal's high score off that new arcade machine before he got back.
What happened after that? Dude, I don't know, you'll hafta go ask one of the other guys where that car went... and why it came back in fifty pieces. Right now, I gotta get to my football practice, later dude!"
Huh, what an interesting tale, I wonder which stallion I should go ask to tell me the next part...
