There was a gasp, and then someone yelled, "What in Celestia is going on?!?!?"
You recognized the voice, it was Twilight's. You tried to move your arms but was stopped when you realized there was something laying on them. You opened your groggy eyes and looked upon the body of a unconscious Rainbow Dash, you rested your head on the kitchen table that you happened to be laying on.
"What happened? " you whisper to no one in particular, you slip your left arm from beneath Rainbow.
She groaned something and turned on her side, you sat up and rubbed your head. You obviously had a hangover, and it was a rather bad one. You stumbled off the table and onto to your two feet, you nearly dropped but saved yourself by grabbing something.
It was Twilight.
"So, I take it you had a good time at your welcoming party? " she crossed her arms, and looked at the unconscious body of Rainbow Dash, the girl that you happened to be sharing a table with not too long ago.
You smiled lamely, "jealous?" Twilight rolled her eyes.
You decided now was a good time as any, "I also take it you had a good time going through my head? "
She tensed, but held strong.
"So, at least tell me how much you saw, I'll judge your punishment on that." You pushed yourself off of Twilight and supported yourself with the counter.
"I-I.... I only saw your arrival, no more, no less."
Only your arrival? Frankly you were suffering from a pretty bad hangover and could really care less on what she saw. Your arrival wasn't really full of super classified stuff that you'd have to possibly kill her over. You'd make a compromise.
"Tell you what Twilight, I'll forgive you if you can get rid of my hangover." You grinned and rubbed your head.
"You'll.... Really? That's it? Just cure your hangover and you'll forgive me?!" Twilight rubbed her chin, thinking the offer over.
"Yep. Surely with your magical prowess you can do something as simp-"
"Done."
"What? Hey! It's gone! Bloody hell you're miracle worker Twilight!" Truly your killer migraine was gone!
"That's great and all Anderson but did you mean what you said?" She gave you the most adorable expression a woman of her caliber could physically muster.
"Yep, every word. But remember Twilight, I may have forgiven, but I have not forgotten."
She lowered her head, "Right."
You wrap your arm around her, "Well I'm not the type of guy to leave someone hanging, so I'll help you clean this mess up."
"Thanks Anderson."
"No problem Kiddo."
"Kiddo?! How old do you think I am?!"
"Hehe."
------------------
1 and a half hours of cleaning later.
--------------------
"Again, thanks for helping me clean." She threw a bag full of plastic cups in her garbage can.
"No problem kiddo." You respond with a heavy emphasis on 'kiddo.'
She turns and growls at you, but she isn't able to keep up her angry facade, and bursts into a fit of laughter. You eventually join and laugh alongside her.
Sometimes, it's good to forget.
"Hey Twilight, did you ever get that letter from the princesses about my employment into the Equestrian military?" You close the book you've been reading.
"Fraid not Anderson, but if you don't mind, I'd like to ask you another question." She starts putting books on the shelfs.
"Hmm, you never learn do you? " you hand her the book and she places it on a bookshelf.
"Don't worry, I won't ask about how you got here, or about your suit." She turns away from the bookshelf and faces you.
"Well then, ask away." You sit back down on the couch.
"Who do you work for? " Twilight asks while magically grabbing a scroll from another room.
"The American military, A.M.A.H.S. division." You answer, she writes.
"What do you work for? " Twilight asks.
"The peace of humanity." You answer, she writes.
"Have you been in a war of any kind? " Twilight asks.
"Yes." You answer, she writes.
"Have you ever injured someone? " Twilight asks.
"I did a lot more than injure, but sure." You answer, she writes.
"Have you suffered any injures yourself?" Twilight asks.
"Yes." You answer, she writes.
"Would you mind describing them? You don't have to if you don't want to though." She asks with a sense of caring.
"I had my left arm sliced off by a plasma sword." You answer, she writes, but slowly.
"How do you have a arm now then? Surely something's in your armored sleeve?!"
"If possible, I'll show you one day. But let's say I had it replaced." You start showing off your left arm, she leans in and closely examines it.
"This has been informative Anderson, you've given me a slightly better understanding of your kinds technology. The ability to replace limbs is a amazing accomplishment that our own doctors wish to achieve!"
"You speak as if we're different species Twilight, I'm just as human as you." You lay down on the couch.
"That's were you forget one LARGE thing Anderson." She rolls up the scroll and magically poofs it somewhere else.
"Oh? And what's that?"
"Your body can't handle magic! That's what make you so different from everyone!" She claps her hands together.
"That's all right with me, I don't feel like I'm missing out on much anyway."
She doesn't respond and the library takes on a quiet atmosphere, you didn't know what to say since you were just going with the flow, now that flow has stopped with you still in it.
"... Hey Anderson...." She speaks, her voice a whisper.
"Hmm?"
"Wanna go out?"
You fall off the couch and stare at Twilight with wide eyes, "T-Twilight! Your kinda rushing this ya know! We literally just officially met yesterday!"
She apparently realized what she said, and how she said it, "N-no! Not like that! I feel like I owe you! You know, for looking through your memories and all!" Her voice turns back into a whisper.
You immediately calm down, "Twilight, didn't I say I forgave you?"
"Yeah, but I feel like I could do more than cure your hangover to get your forgiveness." She rubbed the back of her head.
"So you're offering to take me out to, what time is it?-" you check your suits clock, "Lunch?"
"Is that a problem? Is it not okay for women to ask men out to lunch in your homeland?" She crosses her arm, with a very expectant look on her face.
"Er.. No, there isn't a single problem, when do you wanna go?" You sit back down on the couch.
"If it's okay, then now. I don't think you have any other plans anyway." She smiles and walks up the stairs and into her personal bedroom.
10 minutes later, she returns in new, clean clothes, "sorry Anderson, I'd thought I'd freshen up a bit before going outside."
"You're a woman, I understand, now if you're ready than I'm ready." You scratch your cheek, god knows how long you'll go without a shower anyway.
"I'm ready to go Anderson." She attaches a small satchel to her belt, it's probably payment.
You nod and follow after Twilight, the two of you exit the library and Twilight shows you to a decent restaurant that serves lunch.
"How may I help you?" The waiter appeared from behind and asked you.
"May I have the menu please." Twilight responds almost instantly.
"Of course madam, and for you sir?" The waiter hands Twilight a menu, and turns to face you.
"Same." You say one word and the waiter understood instantly, he hands you a menu and speeds off as quickly as possible.
"He seemed scared." You try and start some small talk.
"You're a rather intimidating man Anderson, that armor you wear makes you look like some kind of alien." She flips a page, and stares intently at something,
"Something interest you?" You ask while flipping through the pages of the menu, you spot something that looked tasty.
"Yeah, I'm thinking about getting... Salad, Yeah salad sounds good." She closes her menu and looks at you.
"What about you?"
"I'm thinking, Cooked Wrapped Fish." You close your menu, and wave for the waiter.
"Wrapped fish? Rainbow got that before, she said it was good." She sat back and closed her eyes.
Eventually the waiter appeared and took your orders. Within 5 minutes, your meals were brought to you and Twilight.
"Yep." You say, "it's confirmed, Wrapped Fish is basically a fish taco."
"Taco? What's a taco?" She grabs her fork and starts eating her salad.
"It's a type of food from my world-" you hold up one of the fish tacos "-its basically meat wrapped in a tortilla, which is a Mexican pancake that's usually cornmeal or flour."
"What's a Mexican?" She takes another bite of her food.
"A Mexican is what I am, my mother was Hispanic, my father was American." You shove the Fish Taco in your mouth and start feasting.
"You're a Mexican?" She takes another bite.
"Yeah, I got more of my mothers facial features than my fathers, but I got my fathers large build though."
"So.. You are the Mexican?"
"What? no! I'm not what makes up the entire Mexican population! I'm just some guy whose got Spanish blood running through him!" You felt kind of dumb for not properly explaining what a Mexican was.
"Er, sorry?" She takes a bite.
"It's alright Twilight." You another bite of your fish taco and let silence take over the table.
"So, how much will al this cost you? My meal was..uh... 7 Bits? Is that a lot?" You push your now empty plate to the side your table.
"Depends on how you see it, for me? It seems like a okay deal, but what did you think of it?"
"The fish was cooked professionally, when I opened the tortilla to check the inside. There was a pretty generous amount of fish. So I'd say, yeah! It was worth it!... I think." You patted your armored stomach, it was a good meal.
Twilight reached into her satchel and pulled 16 gold colored coins out, she places said coins on the table and begins to leave. You wave the waiter back over and start conversing with him.
"Yo, waiter man. Who invented the recipe for these Wrapped Fishes?" You stand up and look at the man.
"The, uh, chef himself." The waiter responds.
"Well do me a favor and give him my regards."
"Can do!" He saluted and bounded off to assist another customer.
You grinned a bit and turned to follow after Twilight, you quickly caught up to her. She didn't seem to realize she left you behind and was talking to herself.
"And then she slipped on the banana! It was hilarious!"
You nod aimlessly, looking off in another direction, you didn't know what to think of the situation. You were stranded on a different planet with no way of returning home.
Yet.
END
HOW IT REALLY WENT DOWN.
"Son of a bitch Twilight!" You shot from couch and sucker punched Twilight in the face.
But she used her magical powers to super heal herself, your punch was ineffective!
Twilight uses giant ass beam of magical badassary to send you flying across Equestria!
Luckily, your armor is just as badass as her powers, your armor absorbs the blast and turns it into badass energy!
You use this energy to summon a army of badass robotic Celestia's who use their badass powers to completely obliterate Twilight! It was super effective!... And badass!
Then you had really hot, steamy, love-love time with Rainbow and Fluttershy.
