First Smile | [Action]

[Hello, citizens of Luceti. I hope you're all enjoying your daily routine. Picking up your lunch for the afternoon, or catching up on some reading by the fountain. Maybe even taking a trip to the item shop for some... window shopping.

Because you're not getting inside.

That's right. Anyone approaching the item shop will instantly notice the wagon in the doorway. A wagon holding a mountain of items so random that it would take some kind of evil genius to see how they all fit together. Or Pinkie Pie. You should probably suspect Pinkie Pie. The bubblegum-pink pony is happily darting from pile to pile, shelf to shelf, picking up and playing with just about everything she can get her hoofs on. Every once in a while, she'll gasp in excitement, before tossing an item onto her ever-growing mound.]

This is the best. Store. Ever!

Want me to move it? I've moved furniture for people before, I could manage this too.

[He could probably push the pile out of the way if he transformed.]

[brokethefourthwall]

I wouldn't turn down the help!

[accepted]

[Right then. There's a sudden flash of light before Caius disappears and is replaced by a werewolf looking sort of guy wearing his clothes. He'll just get to work moving the wagon away from the door.]

This shouldn't take long.

[brokethefourthwall]

[Pinkie, seemingly unfazed by the transformation, hops over with glee.]

You didn't tell me you were a puppy!

[accepted]

[FFFF... His head drops for a moment before he goes back to hauling the wagon.]

I'm not a puppy, I'm a Leymon. Why does everyone say I'm a puppy?

[Can't they at least say wolf?! That's cooler sounding than puppy!!]

[brokethefourthwall]

Don't be silly! You're not a lemon! Lemons are small and yellow and sour! You're big and fuzzy-wuzzy!

[accepted]

[Okay there. Done. Wagon moved.]

No, not lemon. Of course I'm not a lemon! Leymon. Leymon. And I'm not... Fuzzy-wuzzy...

[brokethefourthwall]

If you saaay sooooo~!

[She playfully hops in circles around him.]

[accepted]

[Fwoosh, another flash of light and no more fuzzy-wuzzyness.]

See, I'm not fuzzy or anything at all.

[With the wagon out of the way he'll just head on in and start looking for some gels, being careful not to bump into Pinkie as she hops around.]

[brokethefourthwall]

Hey! You're a monkey again! That's some really neat magic!

[accepted]

Huh, what, a monkey? I don't even know what a monkey is... I'm human now, not a monkey or anything else. I know Equestria doesn't have humans, but people who look like me now are humans. Not monkeys.

[brokethefourthwall]

Hue-man? What a silly name!

[accepted]

You think so? It's not that silly, everyone seems to use it. Well uh, most people anyway.

[But now he's thinking if it really is a silly name or not, it's like he's ever known anything else. :|a

In the midst of his thought he spots some apple gels and moves to grab a few to stuff into his pockets.]

[brokethefourthwall]

[Of course, the chewy, candy-like appearance of the gels instantly gains the pony's attention.]

Ooh! Those look really yummy! What flavor are they?

[accepted]

They're pretty good, these ones are apple flavour. There are lots of other kinds too. They're like medicine but they're candy chewy things instead of pills.

[Now if he could get some orange gels he would be set.]

[brokethefourthwall]

Apple flavor? Sounds yummy! I bet Applejack would want to have a taste. Her family grows the best apples in all of Equestria!

[accepted]

So there are even more of you from Equestria here now, other than you? Wow Rainbow Dash must be pretty happy about that.

[... Holding out one of the gels.]

Want one? There are probably lots more here. Or in your wagon anyway.

[brokethefourthwall]

How can I say no?

[She leans in, gently taking the gel in her mouth.]

Ooh, it's really sweet! [She chews happily.]

[accepted]

Yeah, they are. It's what makes them so much better to take than normal medicine. They're like sweets that are good for you.

[But it's probably not good to eat too many, that might be like an overdose.]

[brokethefourthwall]

This is medicine?

[She keeps chewing, her eyes looking down towards her mouth.]

Doesn't medicine usually taste really crummy?

[accepted]

Medicine normally tastes like crap, yeah. Which is why gels are so awesome, you can take a whole bunch and you won't feel even worse because of the taste.

[Plus they're a great way to make kids take their medicine when they're sick.]

[brokethefourthwall]

Mhm~!

[She giggles, chewing it too passionately to bother talking at the moment.]

[accepted]

[Welp whilst Pinkie enjoys that he'll just wander off and look at some of the other stuff in the item shop. He's not here too often so he might as well look around a little.]
