1st Tune [Accidental Visual]

[The scroll is open to show a little filly lying in front of Town Hall. She seems a little confused, and even slightly disoriented as she looks around, before looking down at herself.

When she speaks, her voice is very soft, as though she has trouble getting the words out. One really has to be listening to hear what she says.]

A-Am I in...heaven...?

[Then she slowly gets to her hooves, her legs shaking a little. Her scroll goes completely unnoticed as she lifts her head, before calling out as loud as she can.]

M...Mom...? Mom...Where are you?

[bornofhope]

It's not heaven...I think. Apparently, it's called Equestria!

[Visual]

[everydays_great]

[More voices? Oh, from the paper, right?

She fiddles with it a bit, trying to get it more open with her hooves.]

I-It's...It's not...?

[Visual]

[bornofhope]

I don't think so. It's actually a really nice place, but it feels too alive for heaven, if that makes sense.

[Visual]

[everydays_great]

Mm...I guess so...but...

[Another look around.]

H-How did I get here...?

[Visual]

[bornofhope]

I'm not sure. I know a lot of people have been brought here, though...even ones from other worlds!

[Visual]

[everydays_great]

R-Really? Other worlds...?

[Visual]

[bornofhope]

Yeah! I don't know the details, but apparently that's what's happening.

It's really not so bad. Everyone here's so nice and friendly...and most of them are ponies! And some bears, too. And dragons and griffins...there's a whole lot of things here that aren't in my world.

[Visual]

[everydays_great]

Oh wow...! Yeah, uh...my world has ponies and bears...but not dragons.

[Visual]

[bornofhope]

Apparently, these are special ponies. They talk and look like stuffed animals, but they're so friendly and supportive. And most people who come here turn into ponies.

(Just like she did.)

[Visual]

[everydays_great]

Oh wow...! It's just like an anime!

[Visual]

[bornofhope]

It's exactly like an anime! Especially since magic exists here.

[Visual]

[everydays_great]

Yeah!

[That made this place seem less scary.]

[Visual]

[bornofhope]

I don't know a lot about it, but I don't the ponies here are very friendly.

...Oh, I almost forgot! I'm Madoka Kaname! It's nice to meet you.

[Visual]

[everydays_great]

It's nice to meet you too, Madoka-chan! I'm Nanako.

[Visual]

[bornofhope]

That's a very pretty name, Nanako-chan! Have you met anyone from home here? This place can bring in friends from home.

[Visual]

[everydays_great]

Oh yeah...! I saw my friend, Teddie!

He's a bear.

[Visual]

[bornofhope]

Oh, I know Teddie! We met when I woke up here! We're neighbors!

Sort of. He might not be next door, but we're still neighbors.

[Visual]

[everydays_great]

Oh, you know him? Isn't he funny?

[Visual]

[bornofhope]

Yeah! His jokes are too much to bear!

[Visual]

[everydays_great]

[She giggles.] He's bear-y good at telling jokes!

[Visual]

[bornofhope]

I wonder if he prebears his jokes ahead of time.

[Visual]

[everydays_great]

[She giggles.] I don't think he needs to. He's just a natural!

[Nanako, on the other hand, needs more time to think of things.]

[Visual]

[bornofhope]

I bet! Is he a professional bear back home?

[Visual]

[everydays_great]

Oh yes! He's the very best bear ever!

[Visual]

[bornofhope]

I bet! I've never met a bear as great as him.

I heard he's living with a bunch of friends from home. Maybe you can move in with them!
