mylittlejamjar | 1st Run [visual]: Money equals food for a hungry pony

_{[Wally appears smiling at his viewers. His hair has been tidied up a little more than it usually is.]}

Hey everypony-er everyone. If you don't know me already I'm Wally. I'm another one of the humans brought here from another world.

Would any of you happen to know a place hiring workers or need to hire someone to help you out? I'm in need of a job so I can make more bits. Gotta be able to pay for food.

Mr. and Mrs. Cake were nice enough to let me run some errands for them in exchange for a few meals. -Sugar Cube corner has amazing baked goods by the way. You should go there for a meal if you haven't already.- But there aren't enough orders for sweets across town for them to need delivery constantly and their employee Pinkie Pie takes care of that half of the time any way. Sooo... Yeah. I'm looking for a job.

I've written up a little resume. Take a look.

Looking for a starting position. Physical labor is okay. Job doesn't have to match specialty skills.

_{[As usual his secret identity keeps him from adding a few more specialty skills and understating his speed.]}

Blue? Uh the one I'm talking about has a little blue in his mane but otherwise he's brown and... I guess you could say he's peach colored. His rump mark is three clocks.

_{[Hopefully that makes sense? Wally is a little thrown off by Pollo's question. He has yet to meet Handy.]}

So that's where he is...

[He's musing to himself, almost like he's forgotten Wally's there. He knows it can't be his Doctor. The Doctor he knows would have found him by now. But...]

Yeah. That's where he is. The Doctor.

_{[Wally can tell by Pollo's expression that something else is going on in the other guy's mind. Wally smiles at him, but his eyes clearly show his confusion about Pollo's reaction.]}

...how is he, do you know?

[That's not really the tone one uses when inquiring after the health of a stranger. He is far too emotionally compromised in this.]

He seems like he's doing okay. A pretty friendly guy. I bet he'd be fine with you talking to him.

Why? Do you know him?

_{[Why else would he be asking?]}

I knew a different version of him. Back home.

[Kon Ran is far from his original universe, but it's the only place Pollo himself has ever known. Given the choice, he might even have stayed there in the end.]

He was...I suppose you could say he had a hand in creating me. We were friends. These other versions seem very...different from the one I know. [Not in a bad way, but it still hurts.]

Huh. Seems like there are a lot of different universe copies around here- like the second Pinkie Pie at Sugarcube... But if it's any comfort The Doctor really does seem like a good guy. He might be different but maybe you'd still get along. The second Pinkie is just as friendly as the first. Could be an equally friendly Doctor.
_{-Not that I uh know the one you knew.}

Yes, I suppose so.

[That isn't quite his concern. But he can't just keep on living here, avoiding the man into eternity.]

Maybe I'll go meet him sometime.

Yeah. When he's not at Sugarcube he always seems to be out scanning stuff with his screwdriver or whatever he called the device. Bet you'll run into him sooner or later.

Right. Thanks... [He seems slightly bothered despite his words.]

...You okay Dude? You seem sorta down about it.

It's only that my Doctor and I...we didn't part in the best way. I should have liked to say goodbye to him properly. Being faced with a different one now is...disconcerting, at best.

Oh I'm sorry about that Man. I wish there was something I could do to help you. Uh. If you need to talk about it then let me know.

Thank you.
