7th World: [ voice/video ] A Question of the Mind

[universal_charm]

[ The image presented on the screen shows a Kirk that looks like he probably just got up. He doesn't have enough hair for it to look to messy, but somehow it manages it, and his eyes look bleary. He runs a hand over his face and sighs. ]

Okay, how badly do you need therapy when even you have to admit that you need therapy?

They may not be elements where you come from, but they're definitely real in Equestria. I wouldn't have gotten my wings without them.

[universal_charm]

It all sounds like a fairy tale to me.

[fourthgenerationprincess]

Well... maybe to you it is! But to me, a ship flying to other worlds seems pretty far-fetched. Yet here you are! I wouldn't be surprised if tomorrow, Daring Do made an appearance in the Luceti town square.

[universal_charm]

And who, dare I ask, is Daring Do?

[fourthgenerationprincess]

She goes on adventures in abandoned temples and crypts, looking for priceless artifacts to donate to Museums of Pony History. Rainbow Dash knows all about her! Or, she did at home.

[universal_charm]

Soooo she's a tomb raider.

[fourthgenerationprincess]

Exactly! She's a great hero. I think the author's only been improving as the series has continued. Rainbow Dash just likes them for the stories, though.

Are there things you like to read? I'm looking for new material in the library.

[universal_charm]

Uhm, I'm trying to find more books on mechanical engineering and physical principals, recently. I had hoped with so many different people here, we'd have quiet a few.

[fourthgenerationprincess]

We have an entire science section! You can probably find what you're looking for.

[universal_charm]

Yeah, I figured. You know any good ones on the subjects?

_{[ He knows you're a reader and a researcher, even if he is still very sure that Harmony has no elements attached to it, but whatever. ]}

[fourthgenerationprincess]

Hmm. Just a minute.

[ She's back some time later with a few books levitating behind her and one in her mouth. Which she drops by the video screen. ] These seem like a good start. I thought this one looked the most promising. [ The cover of the book (with a hint of saliva on the spine) reads "Fourth Dimensional Physics and You: Theoretical Backgrounds and Applicability in Mechanical Engineering".

[universal_charm]

_{[ Okay, so... point one for the Pony. ]}

I'll put it on the 'Needs to Read' list.

[fourthgenerationprincess]

You don't need to! I'll make you a section in the library. [ Perks of being friends with a librarian. She moves to the front desk and shelves the stack under the counter. ]

[universal_charm]

Oh... thanks, I guess.

[fourthgenerationprincess]

No problem! I'll keep looking, without Spike's help there's probably a few I'm missing.

[ One book tumbles out of the pile and it's the one with the Enterprise on the cover. ] Oops!

[universal_charm]

Well, looks like you got your... hooves full, so I'll be going then.

[fourthgenerationprincess]

Not at all! It was good to meet you, Kirk. Stop by the library or the pony house anytime.
