mylittlejamjar | First Attempt: Arrival (video & action)

[ It's a little traumatic to go to your nice, cozy home on the outskirts of Ponyville and find it already occupied. But indeed, what Fluttershy hears upon arrival at the front door is... her own voice coming from inside.

She stays just long enough to peek in a window and see herself cleaning things up before she flees the scene.

At which point she decides that the bridge in front of her house is the safest place to take up residence until she can muster the courage to go inside and see what's going on. In the meantime, she examines the new scroll in her possession. ]

[ A video post goes out some time after her arrival. ]

Um. Excuse me. I’m sorry to bother you all… it’s just that… um…

[ She opens her mouth and tries to speak, then glances behind her, offscreen, looking towards what was until very recently her hut. If she had the courage to go talk to her double right now, she would. But alas. ]

I was just… wondering. Well, it’s not very warm right now and… well, if anypony has a blanket they could spare? Just for tonight, I promise.

Oh, this was a bad idea. Never mind. [ The video clicks off. ]

[ The pegasus might be found wandering around Ponyville in something of a daze a little later, hiding under bushes and things while she tries to figure out what's going on. But for the most part, she'll stay under the bridge until it gets too cramped. And then she'll stay a little while longer. ]

Oh, wow. You needed all that in the other worlds you were in? Were they really that bad? [ Fluttershy's eyes widen in concern for her friend. ]

The ship was. And I guess while I was in Garden it was rough outside... but I liked training to be a mercenary! ...except for the schoolwork.

I'd love to hear all about it. It sounds like a great adventure!

Oh... uh, hold on. I've been writing about it.

[Rainbow digs into the pockets of her coat, finally coming up with a couple of sheets of paper with some scrawl on them, which she offers to Fluttershy kind of messily.]

I put the final versions on the scrolls for everypony to read, but these are pretty close. That's just the stuff about Penrose, though. Still working on the ship, Clock Town, and Garden. The ship's...

[She looks away, swallowing.] That's a hard one.
