So since Horseland has a way for everyone to jut blabber philosophical questions to everyone else or air their personal business to everyone in town just like home, here's a question for you: who here is familiar with time travel? I'd ask who's used to jumping between dimensions and worlds and blah blah blah but if this is anything where I'm from it's probably nearly everyone. Time travel? Seems a bit rarer but apparently there's at least one other person here who's done it. I'm not looking to start a club or some dumb crap, I'm just curious as to who has and why.
[There's a short pause for a moment.]
Tell me if there's anything cool you did too, I guess. I'm bored and your conversations are boring, so talk about something interesting.

...It's not like he can't say he isn't, at least a little, after everything else. ]
...Not everyone gets to be happy, I guess. A lot of it is luck. Which sucks. But it's also just how things are.
Not even those who deserve it get it sometimes.

[A tomato sails over head as she says this.]Its all for a good reason, after all.

[Truth be told, Pokey isn't ready to say out and out there isn't a good reason for her to be unhappy. After all, he'd still argue some people do deserve to be unhappy.
But this shy girl really doesn't seem like the type who'd deserve it.]

Like I said its...its for a really good reason. Its for my wish!
[LOCKED SO HARD FROM MADOKA][visual]
[Because hey. He's kind of going about the business of assuring his own misery, anyway, soon.]
What was your wish, anyway?

[She looks down.]
...made a wish to protect something very dear and special.
[LOCKED SO HARD FROM MADOKA][visual]
That sucks.
[But in a weird way, he guesses he can understand it.]
I guess to try and get a happy ending for someone, someone has to be unhappy.

...It's better to stick with the sad ending, then to have the happy one and then lose it.
[It's...meant to be encouraging? It's an awful way to do it, but he's trying. Not very hard, but still trying.]
[LOCKED SO HARD FROM MADOKA][visual]
As long as those others are happy. I don't need happiness.
[LOCKED SO HARD FROM MADOKA][visual]
Man.
I don't want to be here.
[LOCKED SO HARD FROM MADOKA][visual]
[Was it something she said?]
[LOCKED SO HARD FROM MADOKA][visual]
[He'd think you, or anyone else, would want to be somewhere else to . Someplace with people you care about.
Then again, maybe this place could be to others like Mayfield was to him.]
What's your name anyway? I'm Pokey.
[LOCKED SO HARD FROM MADOKA][visual]
[A deep bown.]

Nice to meet you, least as nice as meeting someone when they've been kidnapped can be. This your first time getting kidnapped by some...I dunno, some greater intelligence, I guess?
[LOCKED SO HARD FROM MADOKA][visual]
[Unless you count her as being a greater intelligence...][LOCKED SO HARD FROM MADOKA][visual]
Good luck.
Places like this tend to get bad.
