The Everfree Mansion.
A Normal Day in The Mansion.
Load Full StoryNext ChapterToday was like any other day. waking up in the same bed, in the same mansion, on the same planet, in the same solar system, in the same galaxy, in the same universe, in the same Reality..... more or less the same Reality that is.
I clear the ' morning-philosophy ' out of my head. that of which my brain just loves to make me listen to when I am just waking up. it mostly happens in the early morning or late afternoon... mostly.
I get up from my king size bed and start stretching, as it helps ease my muscles and relaxes my joints for some time.
I then walk over to the window and look outside, what I saw made me a little bit happier, as it always doses.
A forest, of trees, some rocks, creeping vines, planted shrubs. And I think I remember planting a small patch of poison joke somewhere in the garden to the side of the house. (Anyway.) The everfree forest to be more specific of our location. and yes I did make a mansion smack dab in the middle of a forest. Not at random either.
the sun was shining as it always does, I was doing my human stuff same as the sun was doing its sun stuff and whatever. and today I was... somewhat impressed by Celestia's work, more or less.
' Hmm. good job Celestia, you made yet another day as beautiful as me. ' I said with a hint of sarcasm.
I then make my way to the kitchen. Knowing full well that she will be awake soon. and so I will need to make some breakfast for us.
as well to tell her my plans for the next few months, but if it goes well then maybe it will turn into a few years. and that being renting the mansion to anyone with 1 Bit ( Credit, money, rock's Ect. ) in their Saddlebags. and yes, Rent will be 1 bit ( Ect. ) for 3 months, what? don't look at me like that. We are out in the middle of a dangerous forest, Remember! I have to at least try and get ponies ( And any and all species that are on the planet, And PLEASE read the Terms and Conditions of the contract before coming out here, and don't forget, we are not responsible for ANYTHING, that may happen to your persons and or belongings. This ad was forcefully paid for by discord. ) out here without driving them away with an expensive Rent, let alone the forest its self, and it's hard enough as it is.
anyway, I continue to make my way to the kitchen.
it was a fairly quick walk, I mean I did have to go through 7 different hallways to get there, what can I say, it's a big mansion.
I arrived at the kitchen.
For her, I decided to make a ( 100% NOT ) Real meat burger, some eggs, and bacon, with a drink of only the best Apple juice and a side of toasted toast with some jelly jam on it. And for me, I just decided to make some pancakes. about 3 ....... ok 5 ... maybe 7. but that doesn't matter.
it took a good. 6 to 7 minutes to get all the pancakes ready. and another ........ 12 . minutes to make everything else. but fear not for my food going cold, for I had already eaten my ...... 13 or more pancakes... as I was cooking her food. The food was already done and waiting. and just in time too.
She came trotting through the doorway and sitting down without a peep. same as any other day, but this day will be different. just a little.
I say my usual routine of greetings to her.
"Hey honey, how was your sleep?" I asked almost like on Autopilot.
She says the same thing that she says almost every day.
"Good, yours?" She questions with little interest.
"Meh. It was ok, but hey before I forget, I have some news for ya!'
"Oh yeah? like what." She sounds more interested now.
"Well, I was planning on renting out the rest of the mansion rooms, the ones that are unused and all that, you know to change up our routine a little. " I say just before Drinking some coffee.
"Are you really considering to let other ponies (And other species. ) into the mansion, let alone the forest?"
"Well, yes. That is unless you have any nays to say." ( No pun intended. )
"Hmm. whats the rent going to be?" She asks with a raised eyebrow.
"1 bit per 3 months." I say with some thought.
"That sounds Both like a Terrible price to me, but considering what they will need to do to even get here thou, pretty much makes that an even trade."
"I was thinking the same thing this morning."
"Really?"
"Ya... he,he...ya......"
"Right...."
She starts to eat her breakfast, and I just start drinking the rest my black coffee, I don't know why but I like it that way, even though I really like it with sugar and some cream. but still, I would go black anytime. ( Again no pun intended. )
she finishes her breakfast and starts to wipe her face off with one of those fancy napkins or whatever there called.
I then say what I most usually say at this time.
"Have a good day at school honey!"
she says.
"I sure hope I do. "
And so she gets up and goes to school, or... she would have. But before she even goes 2 feet I stop her with my leg and I say.
"Aren't you forgetting something?"
She reply's "A hug, a kiss on the cheek and or forehead? my saddle bags?"
"Ah ha ha ha, somewhat, but no, no dear you're forgetting your Pet."
"Oh, thanks for reminding me daddy!"
"Your welcome honeybun." I said with a chuckle
Walking up to a brass pipe, of which was going from eye level to up and past the ceiling.
The pipe had a funnel like piece that you can talk into so that the person ( not in this case ) on the other side could hear you.
Silver then called into the pipe and said.
"Paging Beholder Number 7582, I repeat, Paging Beholder Number 7582."
A voice replied to her.
"ugg hmmerrr. wa-aah-wah-What?!?! did someone page me? I was sleeping so I didn't Hear it.
'typical beholder.' I thought.
"Yes, Number 7582, Your Servis is needed for the day.
"Yes ma'am, On my way.
Walking over to the door silver waited.
Her 'Pet' in question is more or less a beholder from the D&D series. Honestly, when I was thinking of cool looking things that could both protect my daughter and still pack a punch, I thought " What better than a creature that can completely negate any and all magic that It looks at, and those Eyes!!!. " now I know what your thinking why not a spinks, they can protect items left behind from the god's for crying out loud. well, for one thing, she is not an item, and also they are more for stationary guarding, and secondly, The Spinks looks like shit come paired to a beholder. in both their look(s) ( As they are very much different from one another. ) and overall philosophy. I mean really. A whole species that completely and utterly hate one another and everything else besides its self. And then we have the Spinks, I mean yeah. they are powerful. but so what. and they don't even look all that interesting. But whatever, I have been rattling on long for far too long now. On to the next slide!
The Beholder came in the kitchen from a hole in the ceiling above. of which lead to the seconded floor.
Taking her 'Pet' with her, she trots out one of the mansions side doors, this one going from the kitchen to the outside.
The 'Pet' of which I will from now on just call beholder.
Flu out an open window next to the door, as the door was too small for the beholder.
"Hmm. ya, just a little different. " I said smiling
* 5 ( or more. ) seconds later. *
The entire world started to get some paper ads all over their nation's towns, villages, cities, and private residencies, the adds were in the native languages of the countries. written fluently in each ad for any lifeform(s) to read, all the ads read as such.
" Need a place to crash? or just want to stay for a day? well, I can help. you can rent out a room for a while, just come to my mansion, it's only 1 Bit/Money/Credits/Rocks or whatever you use as currency, for a total of 3 months?, it's located in the Everfree forest next to the town of Ponyville in the country of Equestria.
* disclaimer * the everfree forest is not actually a part of Equestria, and there for half of its laws do not apply to MY country.
P.S. we have a pool and hot tub that you can use on weekdays and weekends, however, the pool must close at 9 o'clock sharp. or else you will be eaten, I am not joking, we have some nasty animals out here.
P.P.S. please ask for a local tour guide to take you to the center of the everfree forest or else you may run the Risk of losing your soul forever.'
princess Celestia put the Add down and breathed a sigh of sorrow and anguish, she then said.
"This will not end well."
then a small note popped into existence right in front of Celestia, just floating there, in front of her face. not in her magic. it read as such.
"No, no it will not Celestia, but she is getting bored, as well am I.
You and I both know that you want to make me happy. and making me happy is to make her happy. so just think of it as a peace offering I'm making, I make an ad to help me and her and you, me and her in not being alone. And you for hiring more tour guides, that should make Equestria get more bits in the treasury and all that stuff... P.S. if anyone Really does come by wanting to see the mansion and there's no tour guide to help them then they might really lose their soul and all that biz and what not. with love. your most hated enemy of them all. ~J "
Immediately after her reading the note it burst into flames and turned into ash. making a heart of ash on the floor, before it was blown away by the wind, going to parts unknown.
I then said
"Man, I love my not a real job of annoying the princess's job"
