I knew I should have looked up 'reality shows' a few months back.

[ The man who appears on the screen is currently looking at what seems to be a little notepad before adding the word 'space' next to the words 'reality tv'. Really, he could have done this space setting if it included an inter-galactic war or helping planets in peril.

But in all honesty, Steve Rogers: entertainer has never been his career choice and it's not his forte, either. At least now the whole thing doesn't include singing and girls in scandalously short skirts. ]

My name is Steve Rogers, currently aboard the SS Pathstone. I've done a little bit of reading while aboard the Marsiva. I understand there are those who are trying to help the people on the moon we're visiting, if there is anything you need, I'd do whatever I can do to help.

[ you might catch a glimmer of red and blue and silver just behind him. A wink as the light hits metal ]

The same goes for going home. I imagine people have already looked into ways for us to leave this place. No one should be taken anywhere against their will. I'd like to hear about the information you have managed to collect and I'll do everything I can to make sure everyone will be able to go home safely.

[ you all get a little smile. he's so awkward at these things, can you tell by now. ]

I heard I've missed quite a party.

Comments

For example. Much of the natural resources of this moon are poisoned. That's why we need the mask and why they insist on us not touching the water.

[ he can't believe he's having this conversation with a talking pony. ]

I want to find out if there is any way we can clean those, make them available to use.

[spontaneouscombustion]

Hmmm I dunno. I mean we have lots of doctors back home, but I'm not sure how to fix a sick PLANET.

[Not to mention the pollution's down too. Helps when you have telekinesis and you're responsible for most of your world's natural processes.]

[uprightness]

don't worry.

[ he's reassuring a pony. what has become of his life? ]

I'm sure that between us all, we'll find a way to help them out.

[spontaneouscombustion]

[Steve, you know a guy who changes into a not-so-jolly green giant, one who can shrink down and talk to ants, and a psychic, AND you fought against a guy with a literal red skull for a face. Pinkie can't be THE weirdest thing you've ever seen.]

Yeah? You've got a plan?

[Because a plan would be pretty nice.]

[uprightness]

[ LOOK the weird things he has to deal with are not usually this cheerful alright. ]

Well - first thing, I think we should ask the people who were here before us. Maybe they found out some information that might prove useful.

[spontaneouscombustion]

That's a good one! I can ask Cheese and my crewmates, that might help!

[And the mun is eternally grateful she isn't offering to ask EVERYONE in the fleet because her mun would die.]

[uprightness]

That would be very helpful.

[ and hold on, did she just say ]

is - Cheese another - ?

[ he gestures towards her. he isn't sure what word to use that won't offend. Horse? Pony? well, she's not a unicorn. ]

[spontaneouscombustion]

Yup, Cheese Sandwich is another Earth pony! AND he's another party pony too!

[uprightness]

--- I admit I don't understand the differences. What sets apart an Earth pony from a - party? pony?

[ help. ]

[spontaneouscombustion]

Earth ponies are normal ponies like me without horns and wings and most of us are great at working with plants and animals and earth and stuff!

But Cheese and I have special talents for throwing parties, so we're party ponies! I throw parties for everypony in Ponyville, but Cheese goes ALL over Equestria for his parties!

[uprightness]

-- Wings?

[ what ]

the other kind are - unicorns?

[ THIS IS THE WEIRDEST CONVERSATION YET ]

[spontaneouscombustion]

ONE other kind are unicorns, they have horns and magic! And then there's pegasi and they have wings so they can fly and walk on clouds and move them!

And then there's alicorns like my friend Twilight Sparkle and the other princesses that have traits from all THREE ponies!

[uprightness]

-- They can fly.

[ ok, you know, even steve, however confused he is by all of this, has to admit this is cool.

Except that he can't really even. Twilight Sparkle, the princess Pony? if he ever tells anyone about this, they'll think he went mad ]

And - what is your name, miss?

[ IS SHE A 'MISS'? WELP. ]

[spontaneouscombustion]

[Don't worry, in the coming weeks the madness will spread to Tony and the Vision.]

I'm Pinkie Pie! What's your name, sir?

[Since we're being all formal and everything. You... ARE a human!stallion, right? Or whatever they call those?]

[uprightness]

[ she's pinkie pie.

well. ]

Steve Rogers. Nice to meet you.

[spontaneouscombustion]

Hee, nice to meet you too, Steve Rogers! And I'll keep you posted on any info I find!

[She even gives him a salute and a wink.]
