When problems arise

Previous ChapterNext Chapter

Twilight was being a chatter box and kept telling Anon everything about Ponyville. Anon only listened for the locations and what they were used for. Along the way Anon noticed that his presence was making some of the populous scared. Anon figured it was probably either his alien form or height.

"And then we have Sugar Cube Corner, lets head inside to get something to eat."

"That would be lovely." Anon didn't care that much he was just pretending. He just wants to get back to his research.

They both headed inside to see a pink party pony loading the counter with foodstuffs. When she was finished she looked up at Anon and gasped. "Oh Look it's a new friend!" She gasped again. "Now I need to set up a welcome to Ponyville party and a welcome to Equestria party, this party is going to be so much fun!"

Anon didn't bother trying to comprehend her knowledge or actions. He knew it had something to do with magic and that's all he needed to know. So being the calm and collected person Anon is he responded. "I don't need a party."

Pinkie Pie Just smiled and responded. "Of course you don't need a party silly, It's for fun! I can't rightfully have you in Ponyville and not throw you a Pinkie Pie brand party, that's never happened before."

Anon just gave her a false smile, one that for some reason made Pinkie disheartened and spoke. "I don't want to have fun." This was straightforward and blunt, not that Anon cared he has other things to do.

Pinkie's mane deflated and she sadly whispered to herself. "Why doesn't he want to have fun?"

Twilight glared at Anon with so much anger that if it was tangible it would've blown his head off. Twilight then aggressively whispered at Anon. "Why did you lie to her Anon! Apologize now!"

This only caused Anon to raise his eyebrow and respond. "Twilight I wasn't lying I don't want to have fun, I want to get a job, survive and do research. Everything else is unimportant and trivial."

Twilight was starting to lose her temper but remembered what her mentor taught her. "But Anon keeping to yourself and doing nothing but research isn't good for you."

Anon just looked at her with a neutral expression. "Please tell me, what would be more important than learning the customs of your people. I feel it is best I learn as much as I can lest I insult ponies left and right."

Twilight mumbled to herself and sighed. "It's fine Anon I understand, you need to get used to our kind before casually greeting ponies, lets get some thing to eat before we go ok?"

I gave Twilight a false grin and said. "I would love nothing more Twilight." 'Wow these ponies sure are emotional, if humans didn't moderate their emotions we would've entered world war 3 and killed our species off.'

Twilight bought some cupcakes and Anon ordered some muffins.

Anon knew that Pinkie was planning something, he could see it on her face as she got them their food. Twilight payed and they went back to her house. On the way there they ate some of their food.

Once they were inside Anon spoke up. "You didn't give me a full tour Twilight, I'm sure there is a reason for this?"

Twilight looked a little irate but calmed herself. "Anon you need to learn how to behave yourself, so until you learn how to socialize you are staying right here."

Anon just looked at her and said. "Does this mean I get to sleep here and be given food."

Twilight looked at him like he was stupid. "Of course I would give you food and shelter, we can't have a homeless alien wondering the streets insulting people." Twilight finished the sentence with a smug grin.

Anon decided that the best way to respond is with false sarcasm. "Why of course, we wouldn't want little old me to dislike emotions and friendship, it's almost like it's the foundation for this nation." Anon had no clue how right he was.

Twilight laughed at his false sarcasm while Anon fake laughed. 'I'm glad I took emotional control classes, if I didn't I wouldn't be able to socialize in the slightest. Even if i'm pretending.' "Ok Twilight I think i'm gonna need some sleep."

Twilight looked confused for a second before responding. "But it's like 5 at night how could you be tired?"

Anon just gave her a deadpan stare. "I was up before you Twilight, of course i'm tired."

Twilight awkwardly rubbed her foreleg. "Hehe right, let me get you a some blankets then." Twilight went upstairs to get 2 blankets and a pillow and brought them down.

Anon gave her a smile and said. "Thanks Twilight."

She smiled back "Your welcome Anon."

Anon settled in, finished his muffins and went to sleep.

While Anon was sleeping Twilight decided to write to Celestia about her day with the strange human, she feels there is something she is missing about the way he acts but she can't seem to put her hoof on it. Once she was finished she had Spike send it to Celestia. She then told Spike about what happened today and why she left before he woke up.

At first when Celestia received the letter she was confused by what her protege wrote to her. 'Dear Princess Celestia, today I found a alien in my library. Isn't something you read everyday.'

Back in the library Anon was dreaming as anyone who sleeps does.
