[The last thing he remembered was Mako yelling something in his direction, the kaiju raising a claw for his head. Then he was on the floor, wet and cold and told point blank something about a turtle (BS.) something about the land between the living and the dead (more BS) and told point blank to fend for himself.

In essence. That's what he heard. It's not entirely clear. His brain is a mix of Yancy and Mako twisting into one face that's beyond his saving.

He needs 24 hours. Something to eat. Some place to sleep. The place could easily pass for Hong Kong's boneslum. That's sort of familiar but there's no wall, there's no air of decay..]

Are those guys always that friendly? [He snorts] Sorry I was so rude guys. I was in the middle of a fight for my life and the lives of my friends and planet. Not too thrilled about getting grabbed.

[He doesn't look good either. I mean judging from a baseline human standard of you shouldn't be pale and wearing armor like that. He is in essence wearing armor.]

Can anybody tell me where the fire district is? And after that where I can get something to eat and something - [beat] something else to wear.

I've got [He reaches into a plain black bag hoping for money and coming up with this. It falls against the console and makes a loud squeak.]

...What's really going on here? I mean really.

Most horses that I've met don't talk. ...Do you prefer pony?

I hath heard the same from all the other humans. And yes, I do. Horse more properly describes another species in our world. I only resemble them because I am an alicorn; most ponies are rather smaller than I.

Re: video:

Alicorn. All the...unicorns? Some sort of breed of all kinds of unusual horses?

[raisethemoon]

An alicorn has both wings and a horn; a unicorn does not. They are also only about so tall on average. [She holds a hoof up to about her chest.]

Re: video:

..Those are really tiny. You know we always pictured...horses with horns. [His footsteps slow] Can I stop for a second?

[He indicates the boots]

[Shrug] Pegasi and earth ponies are much the same size. Perhaps a bit larger in the latter case.

Of course. [She looks at the boots with interest. What kind of armor is that?]

[Raleigh exhales. Nearby there's a seat - the top of something metallic - wood maybe? HE can't tell. Half falling, Half sitting, he runs his fingers through his hair and sighs]

Thanks. This is just heavy.

[raisethemoon]

Not at all.

[She frowns at that sort of stumble.]

Can you not simply remove it? I could carry it for thee.

[goingfishing]

[The pony is being so nice.

He stops, taking that in before he shrugs] Nah. It's ok. Thanks though. I just need a moment.

[He sighs] What's there to do around here?

[raisethemoon]

I hath not been here terribly long. But thou shalt have to find work to support thyself.

[goingfishing]

...I don't work. I'm a soldier I -

[normal work is difficult. Unusual even.] Do people work construction here?

[raisethemoon]

Nor do I. I am a princess.

But I hath been helping with construction myself, as it happens! [She actually sounds quite thrilled about it, despite that princess comment. It's nice to be useful.] Only on a somewhat mercenary basis, but it certainly is available.
