First Adventure | [Visual]

[Hello, Equestria. The scroll's video feed opens up on a very large orange pony with a yellow mane, beard, and tail. There's a large trident propped up on the wall behind him, and it matches his Cutie Mark rather well.]

OUTRAGEOUS! Just when I thought this day couldn't get any more unusual, they've given me a magic scroll to record my adventure with! How thoughtful!

[Bad news: he's mistaken the scroll for some sort of personal diary instead of a communication device. This is because he likely quit paying attention when he got it.]

But every adventure needs a good title! I'll call this one..."THE TIME I GOT TURNED INTO A WEE ORANGE PONY AND GOT A MAGICAL SCROLL BEFORE STARTING OUT ON THE REAL ADVENTURE!"

So this adventure all started when I was in the ocean one minute, and on land the next, only I had HOOVES...

[Someone had better stop him before he starts giving an overblown, exaggerated play-by-play of his life story in Equestria up to this point, really.]

Experimentation? That doesn't sound pleasant.

The experiments were actually totally fun! We got to read bad books with our friends and laugh at them! I read one with a sheep once.

That doesn't sound so bad. Though how bad are talking here? As in Twilight bad? Or even 50 Shades of Grey bad?
sailorlaughter: (Omg yay!)

Oh! We TOTALLY read Twilight! Yeah, it had that boring girl, and a truck, and I think some guy...

Yikes. I haven't read it myself, but I know it has bad purple prose in it. At least you didn't read 50 Shades of Grey. Those books are much worse than Twilight apparently.

That's not what I mean. Purple prose is a style of writing that's so flowery it breaks the flow of the story in order to draw your attention to it. It's a bad way to write and tends to annoy readers.
