What's shakin', baby? Name's Dandy. Look, writing's a pain in my ass, so I'm gonna keep this talky, you just keep doing what you're doing. If I'm getting my facts straight, it sounds like you're talking about everyone's favorite death horse. Which means you got info I need.

I'll be seeing you tomorrow~

[Audio/Private]

[kuukai]

[ What.

What. Kyouko grabs her scroll and hits the audio option. ] Hey, idiot! I dunno what yer deal is, or what ya want the information for, but...

[ What? ] Don't say stuff like that again or you'll get a spear in the face.

[Audio/Private]

[adandyinspace]

[Yeah yeah, spear in his face, blah blah blah.]

Woah, shit, was I right? I'm gonna have to try that more often, now we gotta talk. Don't worry, I got the no scroll message. Like I said, I'll be seeing you tomorrow.

[Audio/Private] ==> [Action]

[kuukai]

Buck. [ She turns off her scroll.

The next day, Kyouko's pacing restlessly back and forth along the border of the forest. She's more healed than yesterday, but still looks and smells somewhat the worse for wear. ]

[Action]

[adandyinspace]

[Dandy has absolutely no idea who he's supposed to be looking for, and his last guess would've been some zombie chick who doesn't know how to sit down. Because of that, he doesn't address the matter at hand when he finally walks up.]

Yeesh, rough day?

[Action]

[kuukai]

Rough week. Either / or. [ Kyouko stops, sits down, and crosses her hooves. ] Right. Ya wanted information. Why?

[Action]

[adandyinspace]

Yeah, I was a zombie once. [He says this as casually as ever.] Anyway, you're lookin' at the guy who's trying to save the world, baby. I need to know how you did it.

[Action]

[kuukai]

What? Went inta her? { She grins. ] Jumped inta her soul. Next question?

[ No way can he do that. She barely could. ]

[Action]

[adandyinspace]

Hey, I just wanna talk, going into her comes later.

[WINK. Dandy, please.]

So soul bullshit, huh? Wonder if my science guy can cover that... What'd you do while you were there? You dance with her one on one?

[Action]

[kuukai]

Ugh. What is even yer deal? Ya wanna sleep with her? [ This is wrong on so many levels. ]

[Action]

[adandyinspace]

You aren't answering my question, did you talk to her or not? Or did you fight her like a dumbass?

[Action]

[kuukai]

Ya aren't answering mine, either! 'm not gonna just give this information out willy-nilly! Tha' place- the Pale Pony en't someone ya mess with lightly.

[Action]

[adandyinspace]

I know that, it's why I'm digging for information in the first place. I'm the only guy who thinks I can save this chick and I need to know how much shit I'll need just to talk to her.

So did you do it or not?!

[Action]

[kuukai]

Ta- ta what?

[ That stops Kyouko. ] ... No ... no, she deserves ta ...

... Whaddya mean, save? [ But she's not accusatory. She's interested, albeit skeptical. ]

[Action]

[adandyinspace]

[Tch, it's what he figured. It's always KILL IT WITH FIRE.]

Yeah, you heard me. I don't think this chick's evil. Not originally, anyway. I wanna see what'll happen if we try, you know, actually being nice to her. Use the ol' Dandy charm. Worst comes to worst, the surprise might blow her head up or some junk.

...No one just starts stealing people for some bullshit experiment without something really messed up happening beforehand. Least we can do is figure out if she's some kinda...~victim of circumstances~ before going in for the kill.

[Oh wait, that sounds like he cared too much. Time to cover his tracks.]

Plus I heard the booty's not bad.

[Nailed it.]

[Action]

[kuukai]

[ Kyouko listens quietly before he gets to the end. ] Nah, nah, back up! ... Ya don't actually care abou' that last part.

[ Squint. ] Maybe.

[ She starts walking along the forest border again. He's free to follow her. ] We stole some o' her stuff. Lost some ponies ta get it.

Tha's it. Tha's what we did.

[Action]

[adandyinspace]

Are you kidding? I'm all about the booty, baby! Too bad she lacks the proper pair of boobies, but if I can score with this chick, then who can't I get?

[This is totally the truth and nothing more.]

So...you just stole some crap, huh? No talk or anything? Damn... I was kinda banking on her reaction... Well! Thanks anyway, kid. Looks like it's back to the drawing board. Say, uh, between you and me? Try to keep that mushy shit I just said to yourself.

[Action]

[kuukai]

No promises. [ Kyouko ignores a bunch of the rest of what he says. ]

Ya can't talk ta a pair of eyes, they just stare at ya.

... We got witches back where I'm from. They're evil versions of girls like me. S'why I'm thinkin' ya may not be wrong.

[Action]

[adandyinspace]

Oh hey, I don't think I'm wrong, either. [Much like her, he ignores a lot of what she says. He can talk with eyes all he wants.] Now try telling that to the rest of the town.

You'd be surprised how quick they are to call you an idiot just because you wanna save a lady. Lemme tell ya, it's a sad day when Dandy's the nice guy.

[Action]

[kuukai]

Yeah. I'm the idiot. Dunno why I didn' see it before.

Dammit. No. We din't talk ta her. If we go back in here, one of us should. Might be you.

[Action]

[adandyinspace]

[That actually makes him really happy. The more people he can persuade, the better. At this rate, the Pale Pony owes him.]

HA! Excuse me? It has to be me, it's my idea. If one of you little assholes steals it, I'm gonna make sure she eats you.

You can, uhhhh, rescue your friends or whatever while I show her a good time.

[Action]

[kuukai]

[ She frowns. ] Course. If she eats ya, tha's on your head. An' she might, at that. But even if she doesn', s'your battle. Ya gotta fight it.

But I'll be behind ya.

[Action]

[adandyinspace]

All right, now that's what I'm talkin' about. So that's three for Team Dandy.

[Wow...that's...kinda small, now that he thinks about it.]

It's hilarious because if this was some dude, I probably wouldn't have cared as much. Lucky her, I guess. I'll let you in when my science guy gives me an update, how about it?

[Action]

[kuukai]

Who's number three?

[ She says sharply. ] S'not easy, goin' into her.

[Action]

[adandyinspace]

I dunno, some chick. I... think she's a chick, anyway. I'm not sure she can actually do anything, she's just the only one who didn't chew me out for suggesting it.

[At her sharp comment, he doesn't seem very phased.] Eh, easy was never my style anyway.
