Familiarization

"Okay Kev, now that she exists, can you tell me more about this... Twilight Sparkle?"

"Why don't you just ask her yourself?"

Jack and Kevin were currently at Cafe Diem, now that their business at Global Dynamics was over. They were sitting at a table outside, eating whatever special snack Vince, the cafe's owner, had prepared for that day. Of course, Jack would probably return to GD afterwards, but he could use a break for now.

"Why would I go through all that trouble if someone here can already tell me?"

"Because..." He couldn't really cone up with a good answer. It was a pretty logical argument. "She's a perfectly sapient creature that will easily comply."

"Nice try. Okay, you know what? How about we start with why you chose a purple unicorn amongst the many other possible options? Where'd you get the idea anyway?"

Kevin leaned forward. "Okay, so she's a character from a cartoon that Jenna likes to watch and I watch it with her."

Jack rested his forarms on the table. "So she's out of a little girl's cartoon?"

"Well, I guess so–"

"And you couldn't think of anything better to use?"

"Twilight Sparkle is an intelligent character and is cooperative and easily friendly. Even if she may possibly be overly curious at times, she has a respective attitude."

"Wow, you got all that just by watching a cartoon? That you watch with your little sister? I think someone's overanalyzing."

"Besides, she fits the criteria for the experiment to a T. Complex anatomy, preferrably sentient, and in no way a threat."

"Wait, wait. Complex anatomy and in no way a threat? I don't feel that glowing horns exactly fit the bill there. It sure seemed like it wouldn't have ended well if stuff went downhill."

"Well everything in some way can pose a threat. It's just that choosing a certain candidate required minimizing it, and so I did."

"So if she's a unicorn, and that horn was glowing, does that mean she can do magic?"

"In the cartoon, yeah. But out here, I'm not sure."

"Great. So we may or may not end up with crazy magic that somehow exists that may or may not put the town in yet another dangerous situation."

"... Maybe?"

"And you mentioned earlier that she's possibly smarter than me?"

"Yeah."

"And this is from a children's cartoon."

"You'd be surprised."

"Right. Well I think I'm gonna head back to GD and check up on how your mom is handling Twilight."

==+==

"Well Twilight, you seem to have a perfect bill of health."

"Thank you, Doctor Carter." Twilight looked around from the table she currently sat atop of. "Wow, so all this works on highly advanced technology?"

"That's right. Here at Global Dynamics, our job is to figure out all the unknowns and use our knowledge to advance our technology." Since basic physical tests were over, Allison could delve into more advanced tests. "Now, earlier, we saw your horn glow. Is that some sort of special ability that you can control, or is that a kind of reaction from fear?"

"It was me preparing to use my magic."

Allison was intrigued. "Your... magic? What can you do with your magic?"

"Many things, as long as I know the right spell to use."

Allison was in thought. Twilight Sparkle was from a cartoon, so it was only natural that such concepts would come up. Yet Twilight was also very intelligent and showed herself to be mature, and was a good subject to study. Perhaps her 'magic' usage was somehow implemented into her biology. Only one way to find out.

"Okay. Do you, for example, have telekinesis? Can you... pick up this pen?" She held out a pen in her hands.

Twilight smiled. "Sure thing. It's a very basic unicorn skill." Her horn lit with a purple aura, and the pen was lifted out of the doctor's fingertips.

"Amazing..."

"Don't you have magic here? Or something that has a similar function?"

Allison chuckled. "No, this is a town full of scientists. We don't believe in magic. We can call it that as a placeholder, maybe, but we know that it's something that we've yet to fully understand and explain. Now, as for the second part, there's probably a few projects floating around working on that, but nothing off the top of my head."

"Fascinating."

[End of scrap]

Author's Note:

Yes! An update! ... Technically.

So I was digging around my projects file, trying to find something to write. I found this and decided to go back to it and see if I could add anything. It turns out I forgot where I was going from this part. I do remember the general flow of the story and how it ends though (...weird).

Because this has been sitting there collecting virtual dust, I decided that I might as well release what I had down.

Will I ever return to this story fully? I don't know. I won't deny the possibility. I even had a sequel planned. But hey- stuff didn't exactly turn out the way I expected it to.

At least it wasn't Pinkie Eureka would turn into the Party City of the world by the time she's finished.

Please do continue working on it. It's a really interesting concept and I'd like to see more.

The problem is that even if I try, it doesn't seem like it wants to write. I just can't put together pieces.

1829239 Problem with the biological printer causes not only the Mane Six and the Princesses to appear, but also most of Equestria's Villians.

In between, involve the explination of Pinkie with Cartoon Physics. (Being scientist, they should accept this theory better), and introducing them to cartoons!!

I give you this idea. No need to thank me.

I actually had the storyline planned out. Then I hit massive writer's block and couldn't figure out how to write it.

Two words to jackhammer through that writer's block: Power Surge or Glitching Machine

Take your pick, they're yours.

If I ever want to start writing this again, I will definitely need to rewatch Eureka because as of now, my memory of details are soooo hazy.

It's part of the reason I stopped writing it anyway. I think. Hell if I know. It's been forever.

too bad, this is the only crossover EUREKA MLP

Please update soon.
