Dreaming Wide Awake [Fourth Wall/Open]

[revenancemods]

Who: Everyone! Current characters, fourth wall characters, whoever wants to show up.
What: The portals are closed. Everyone's in Traverse Town, including a whole bunch of new people. This should be interesting.
Where: Traverse Town
When: Throughout the day
Warnings: Depends on the characters. Expect language at least.

You didn't expect to be here. You really didn't. The technicolor buildings are a surprise, as is the little white flying bear telling you you're in the dream world. He gives you a bag full of what looks to be currency, enough shiny things to create a creature of your own (or so he says), and sends you on your way.

Good luck.

Aah! Son of a... [He doesn't quite get to finish his sentence as he's now being shaken by a surprisingly strong pony. Pretty damn embarrassing actually. Once the surprise fades he starts trying to push the demented creature away.]

God dammit get off me! How should I know? I just got here!

[The MeowWow fidgets and whines at Rainbow in confusion. She's not actually attacking his person, but she's not really being friendly either...oh what to do!?]

[elementofloyalty]

Like I'm gonna believe that! I'm the one who just got here! And we sure didn't have big metal monsters like you on Equestria!

[Having adequately made her point, Rainbow darts back in the air, waving a forehoof at him the way a human would shake a fist.]

Now, if you don't want your flank kicked, you better give me some answers!

[originalcopy]

Well, it's not like we have psychedelic talking horses where I'm from either!

[Seriously, can this place get any stranger? He looks up at where Rainbow Dash is hovering and rubs the back of his helmet.]

And I'm not a 'big metal monster'... my name's Church.

[elementofloyalty]

Okay, you're a big metal church monster, and what kind of place do you come from that doesn't have ponies?! That's a SURE sign that you're a monster!

[She has upsides, honest...]

[originalcopy]

Ugh... really? Ponies are things that live in rich kids backyards.

[I'd like to say the same about him but... XD]

[elementofloyalty]

I don't live in anypony's backyard! I'm a respectable homeowner, thanks. Now WHERE are my FRIENDS?

[originalcopy]

How the fuck should I know? Where are my.... people I happen to know.

[Long suffering sigh. Because really, he's having an argument with a pony. This is what his life has become.]

[elementofloyalty]

You're sure you aren't responsible for this?

Because, and I'm just saying this, a metal church monster is a lot more suspicious than a pony.

[originalcopy]

Pfft Yeah.

Ugh, my name is Church... Leonard Church... And if one of us looks like they belong here it's you. [He crosses his arms and tilts his head incredulously.]

I mean, look at you, weird animal with crazy rainbow colors. You're almost blend in with the locals.

[elementofloyalty]

[Two can play that arm-crossy game, except not quite because Rainbow has forelegs instead]

I am a perfectly normal if awesome pegasus. You look like a large-sized baby dragon decided to put on armor, except with just one giant freaky eye instead of a sensible visor.

[originalcopy]

Hey, there's nothing wrong with my visor! And my armor is totally awesome.

[elementofloyalty]

That's armor?

So you're not a metal monster, you're an armor monster! What's underneath it?

[If Church isn't careful, Rainbow is going to try pulling off his helmet.]

[originalcopy]

Yeah, badass space armor!

What do you mean what's under it... I am.

[elementofloyalty]

Well, yeah. [She rolls her eyes at how obvious this is.] You're obviously not a pony, so what are you?

[originalcopy]

Uh, a human being... duh. You seriously don't have people where you're from?

[elementofloyalty]

Sure, we have people, we're people. But we don't have hunan beings there!

Come on, take the armor off. Lemme see!

[originalcopy]

What, no way! Go find someone without any armor on.

Besides, no one takes their armor off outside.

[elementofloyalty]

Come on! I've never seen a human before! Lemme see! There's nothing to be afraid of here!

[originalcopy]

Hey, I'm not afraid. I just... I can't take it off.


It's stuck.

[elementofloyalty]

Well why didn't you say so? I'll help you!

[Clearly believing herself to be doing the exact right thing, Rainbow reaches out with her hooves for his helmet. She can yank that right off if she puts her wingpower into it!]

[originalcopy]

[Except for the fact that it's kind of attached to the rest of him. Rainbow does manage to lift him up onto his toes, though he's a lot heavier than he looks.]

That's not helping! Not helping!

[elementofloyalty]

Wow, it really is stuck! What, should I twist?

[She doesn't wait for permission before she tries twisting it...]

Come off there you stupid helmet!
