[The screen opens up to a green pony as he's pacing; his steps are slow and deliberate, each hoof lifting a little too high as he gets used to walking. He doesn't seem to notice that his scroll has unfurled, too busy as he was trying to stay calm.]

Okay...okay, this is fine. I'm fine...there's...there's a reasonable explanation for this...

[He nearly trips but manages to catch himself, though a look at one hoof has him on the edge of panic.]

I'm dreaming. Right...that's what this is. I hit my head, and I'm in the hospital dreaming...yeah...

[He runs a hoof through his mane, but pauses to glance up at his head.]

Aww man, my hat...

[...It sounds a bit like a sitcom.]

Doesn't sound like you were trying to hurt anyone, though. Could you not tell them what happened?

I did, and one of them clawed my ass.

[A sympathetic wince.] Ouch...sorry, man.

I'd be all "woe is me", but it's at the point where it's starting to look funny.

In you know, a pissed-off funny kind of way.

[notgivinguponyou]

...Yeah, I could see that.

Well hey...if there's anything you ever wanna talk about, I'm up to listen.

Well thanks, Tadashi.

I'll probably check in at some point.

No problem, man. Sure thing. Just lemme know, okay? [He might check in sometimes too.]
