Stitch Nine - [Visual]

[Hey, it's this guy again. He'd traded an acoustic guitar for electric, and for a moment he's strumming a note or two to test the richness of the sound. It's just right. Well, he's clearly about to do a little ditty for everyone, but what on earth for? Was this another accident, an entry meant for someone? Don't want a song? You're welcome to close the scroll. He won't blame ya.]

[Still here? Cool. Thanks. But something's not right. Kanji does not look happy. And when he begins... he just sounds angry. Here goes.]


Gotta give him credit- his voice has gotten WAY better... )

[Then, he stops. He looks away from the 'camera', took a breath, and sets the guitar down a little less than gently- the amp makes a brief and terrible sound from the impact vibrations over the strings, and Kanji simply walks out of the frame. The feed dies a moment later.]

[027] Visual

[The younger Tails is standing inside a shop that looks brand new and has likely never been seen by other ponies in town before. There's a counter with glass showing different colored versions of a strange looking horn-like device. He's holding one with a yellow gem inside.]

After many delays, I'm happy to announce my new shop, which sells my creation, the Artif-Horns. Some of you might be familiar with these back in November, but since then they have been hugely improved. Those of you who weren't around to see them, allow me to explain.

The Artif-Horns are fake horns that use special gems with magical properties to simulate a unicorn's basic magic or telekinesis. It gives off a magic type of electricity that are completely safe. With these, no more having to use your mouth to pick up things.

[He slips on the Artif-Horn he was holding and yellow electricity comes out and lifts the scroll up as the gem inside glows yellow. He looks to the side and more shoot out to pick up a couple books, which are then placed over to on top of the counter.]

As you can see, no damage to the books. It's also completely safe on pets, no more tickling issues.

If you want to test them out while in the shop or if you feel like testing your unicorn magic if you're a unicorn, you can.

[He moves the scroll to the side, showing what appeared to be several small bean bags and two wooden boards with a hole in each of them.]

This game is called Cornhole. The object of the game is using either one of the Artif-Horns or your unicorn magic to throw one of these beanbags into the opponents' board to score points.

Both players or teams take turns doing so. If you manage to get one in the opponent's board, you score three points. But if both opponents have the same score, they cancel out and the person or team that was first in the last round has to throw again. You win the game by whoever scores 21 points first and whichever team wins two games wins the match.

[He lifts a beanbag with the Artif-Horn and throws it into one of the boards before moving the scroll and turns his attention back to it.]

If you have other games or suggestions on ways customers can test out the Artif-Horns, I'm open to suggestions.

[He moves the scroll closer to the counter, showing a better view of the Artif-Horns behind the counter.]

As you can see, they can come in all colors you can find in the rainbow. Though sadly rainbow-colored Artif-Horns are not available at the moment.

[The scroll is finally moved back to Tails' hoof and both the glowing and the electricity stops.]

Any questions?

1st Timeloop [Visual]

[The face In the scroll this time is... familiar, yet different? It was a Unicorn, sure, and the colour was different, but... odd. He was outside, somewhere in the town center of Ponyville, but out of the way of the other Ponies walking around. He looked pretty confused and more than a little worried.]

Ah... excuse me, everyone.

[His voice however, was a dead ringer for a certain in-trouble pony. He bowed his head lightly in apologies, but also allowing the viewer to see-- yeah, you weren't seeing things, he definitely had a horn on his head.]

My name is Souji Seta- and I'm from-- [There was a slight pause there, like he was wondering if it was right to say what he was going to mention] --Inaba, a small country town in Japan... on Planet Earth? [Might as well be specific]

I, ah... I'm not sure if I'm dreaming or not, but I've never had a dream like this before... And I tried hitting myself, and didn't wake up.

[It hadn't been easy, either. He couldn't walk too well like this... that's why he was sitting on his butt until he could get some answers.]

Can someone tell me what's going on, and where am I?

Stitch Eight [Visual]

[It's a familiar apartment if anybody saw the video of an earth pony on guitar. But there's some commotion, hooves clicking against the floor somehow rather than the usual clop. But nobody's in view...]

A'right! I'm open for commissions! The Gala's comin' up real fast, but I can take on as many orders as I can and get 'em done, damn it!

[Then, a sigh.]

Just drop a scroll, got it? ...And for those who want a sample, here's somethin' I just kinda threw together.

[Samples? What's he mea-- oh. Oh that's definitely a stallion trotting into view of the 'camera', wearing an ornate white dress with lace and pearl, something that couldn't be 'thrown together' if anybody tried. He'd even styled his mane to match, and kicked a back leg to show the flow of the skirts. Well, at least he doesn't look embarrassed to be in the stuff. In fact, he looks awfully comfortable.]

Could be as simple or as fancy as ya want it, but you gotta be able to walk in the stuff, got it? I ain't takin' orders for 30-foot dress trains. You'll thank me later.

[Did he just do a little mane flip? He just did a little mane flip.]

Stitch Seven [Video]

[The video starts with an earth pony blowing a party horn until it flies out of his mouth.]

H-happy Birthday, Naoto! I, uh...

[The smile's confident, and he held up an acoustic guitar.]

I put somethin' together that I'm gonna run up to your place in a sec. But first I wanted to show off the chops a bit after gettin' a little practice in!

So, here goes! )

[A slow breath, and a small hoof-pump. Hell yeah, he felt like he did pretty damn good.]

A'right! Seeya in a bit! ...Wait, where's that private marker thing, why's it not-

[A choked sound. He puffs up, about to shout, but then he just deflates and looks away instead, bright red. A hoof rolls up the scroll.]

Stitch Six [Visual] - Filtered from Naoto

[The video starts with an earth pony taking a big drink from a glass of water with lemon wedges in it.]

A'right, so there's a lotta really good singers in Ponyville and I ain't gettin' any better on my own, so I'm lookin' for some advice. Y'know, on practice or keepin' the voice from cracking or somethin'.

[He hesitated, fidgeted a moment, and looked down.]

Th-there's a birthday comin' up a week from today and I wanna do a little somethin' extra. So I got a week to, uhm, get... get better. And figure out a song, since I can't write songs for shit.

[Kanji awkwardly spends the next moment or two idly drumming a one-one-two with his hooves against the counter, a cheek puffed as his eyes look everywhere but at the 'camera'. He can't make entries for shit neither, it seems.]

...Yeah, that's it.

I Can See Infinity - Visual

AAAAAH I CEASED TO EXIST!

[Woona is caffinated. Why? She's probably putting in long hours again, as attributed to the mountain of coffee from Starbucks.]

I COULD SEE INFINITY!

[Yeah maybe someone should take the coffee away from her. In fact I...]

AAAAAAH *COUGH SPUTTER* Okay, the next pet battle is in Dodge City, here we go!

[And she's off. Presumably to pet battle with Tiberius who is hanging off her mane.]

1st Jewel Cake: What in Equestria?? [Visual]

[The scroll feed turns on to a very huffy baby dragon with his arms crossed.]

Okay, so I know this isn't normal, I mean, where did all those humans come from anyway, and why are there so many ponies here now?

[He's gesturing now.]

I mean, sure, Twilight messes up spells all the time, no offence Twilight, but even this is pretty extreme. More like a Discord thing.

And why do I keep seeing double? Pinkie and Rainbow Dash, is this one of your pranks?!? [He glares at the scroll and crosses his arms again in a huff.]. Not. Funny.

Stitch Five [Visual] - April 1st after the initial attack.

[The scrolls will glow. Open it at your leisure. 'Cause Kanji's feeling fiery as hell and can only find one outlet for it... for now.]

[He's lying on a mat at first, but he planted his hooves and is forcing himself upright from what shelter he'd been taken to. His legs are shaky and his eyes are dull from the loss of his magic, and at first his voice is raspy...]


W-we're not gonna take it...

[He took a deep breath, grit his teeth, and sucked in a breath. This is his first time, be gentle. Time to stop being shy. It had to happen eventually, right? He knew this song among many others. Maybe it'd been sung before, he didn't know. But it was appropriate for right now. Have some slightly-abridged Twisted Sister!]

NO! We ain't gonna take it!

We're not gonna take it anymoooore!

We've got the right to choose, and
there ain't no way we'll lose it

This is our life, this is our song!

We'll fight the powers that be, just,
don't pick our destiny 'cause
YOU DON'T KNOW US
you don't belong!

We're not gonna take it-
NO! We ain't gonna take it!

We're not gonna take it anymooooore!


[His scowl deepens, his voice stronger now. Eyes on what passes for the camera on this thing.]

Oh, you're so condescending
your gall is never-ending
we don't want nothin', not a thing from you!

Your life is trite and jaded,
boring and confiscated,
if that's your best, your best won't do!

Oh...
Oh...

We're right!
We're free!
We'll fight!
You'll see!

We're not gonna take it!
NO, we ain't gonna take it!
We're not gonna take it anymoooore!

We're not gonna take it!
NO, we ain't gonna take it!
We're not gonna take it anymooooore!

JUST YOU TRY AND MAKE US!

We're not gonna take it!
NO, we ain't gonna take it!
We're not gonna take it anymoooore!


[Good. He feels better. Maybe someone else out there feels better, too. It tired him out, but he wasn't about to show it. But even though they were dull, his eyes sharpened the best they could as he rolled the scroll shut, ending the feed.]

Stitch Four [Visual]

[Well... his hair's all over the place, and he looks like hell, like he'd just gotten out of bed. Then again, it ain't far from the truth.]

We're out...

[His voice is still only a little groggy. A hoof mops up a bit of drool off the corner of his mouth, then the other against a tightly-shut eye.]

Helluva trip. Shit... got a lot to, uhm, process... but I think one'a the others'll be better at a report than me. Y'want answers anyway, hit me up in person. Not here. Makes sense, right?

[He sniffs, shakes his head and looks a little better. Wake up, Kanji. Wakey-wakey.]

Anyways, that's it.

[And that's it for the public. But he got to learning a little something from his time in there: When you survive spending a LOT of time risking your damned soul in the belly of the beast, you gotta thank your freakin' lucky stars, be bold and possibly face each day like it might be your last. Don't waste them. So with that in mind, after fixing up his mane...]


[Scroll to: Naoto]

...Where are ya?

[Text]

[The message is simple enough, scrawled out in big letters for easy reading. Not that it'd be hard to read anyway, it's only two words.]

I'M SORRY

[It's not addressed to anyone, however, and it looks like someone doesn't know how to private anything.

So everyone can get it instead.

Because bears are generous creatures.]

11 Hearts [visual]

Guys guys guys! I was walking down to the store, and suddenly, I felt a sudden spike of heat in my body! I was all flush and hot, my chest was all aglow, and I realized it meant one of two things.

Heartburn, or one of us is getting married~~!!

[Somepony is super super excited about this.]

And I am never wrong when it comes to these things, so--come on, you lovebirds! Spill it! You know you want to~♥

07 Butterflies [Anonymous Text/Audio]

[There was no visual to accompany the music that could be heard over the scrolls. Just a simple text that could be seen as a voice began to sing.]

For you and your loved ones...whether they are here with you today or not.

[ For those who have heard this particular singing voice before might know who it is, but those who hadn't would just have to guess.]

Heart beats fast )

Stitch Three [Visual] (Filtered far, far away from Naoto. HELLA FAR.)

[Let's put on a tough face. Perfect. Ready? Go!]

Uhh, so- say ya wanted to make a treat as a present for somebody who ain't all that big on sweets. What the hell d'you even make?

[Head turned away, he rolled his shoulders in a devil-may-care (or as much as he could manage) shrug.]

I-I'm just curious, damn it! I ain't goin' anywhere with this!

Oh- Shit, hold on a sec-

[He reached out of frame, and retrieved a handmade sign:]

Accepting COMMISSIONS!

Handmade dolls, accessories and clothes!
Also available for cloth repairs!

Not starving: Tip what you feel!


...Y'know, since that Hearts n' Hooves thing is comin' up. I can deliver anonymously when it's done or hand it over so you can do it yourself. It don't matter. Leave a note in my drop-off box at the Commune - ya want the purple door, can't miss it - or toss a scroll at me.

Stitch Two [Audio] (Backdated to the 20th)

[The sound of howling winds is there at first, but it's hollow, joined by the white noise of ice striking walls of some sort. The voice that pipes up may be familiar to some, but it's shaky and weary, like someone had been out in the cold for far too long.]

Hey... h-hey, c-can anybody hear m-me? This damn thing better work...!

Wh-what happens when th-there's ice goin' up your b-bod-bod... [He needed time to shiver.] ...Body...?

How do ya stop it? We stopped f-f-fighting... s-s-so it should d-disappear, r-right?

[The voice quiets a moment, then lowers, speaking to another:]

A'right... It should s-s-send. I'll s-stick it on my d-damn p-persona if I need to! J-just hang in there, okay?



[ooc: Considering they're huddled up together, replies will be made by both, thus the tags.]

Stitch One [Visual]

Oh... oh, it's goin'! [Wow, crap, how does he do this!?]

Uhh- yo! Name's Kanji. Been here for a little while. Took me a while to work this scroll stuff out, but I-I got somethin' to ask.

[A hoof lifted and went behind his head, ruffling his mane as he looked away.]

I went a little overboard back when I was makin' Hearth's Warming presents for my friends here, and wound up with some extra stuff that needs a home. Anybody want these?

[He turned his body, and on his back are three plush dolls: A deep purple rabbit, a light blue dragon, and a tawny brown sparrow. They're very elaborate.]

Cute, right? Makin' stuff like this is just a hobby of mine, nothin' pro... but I can make clothes and stuff too if peop- er, ponies want 'em. I'm takin' a couple days off next week for my birthday, but other than that I'm pretty free whenever to put stuff together.

[An awkward pause. His eyes shift up, then left as he tries to think of something else to add.]

Uhh... Yeah, that's it.

[This is the heir to a small family business, folks.]
