Initiating my Rarity

<--- --- --->

.

I am nude, as I enter the living room, USB-stick in my extended right hand; I approach the holographic emitter, preparing for what I am about to do.

Three feet from the emitter, the slot is open, preparing to accept the stick.

As I had taken the final step, I slowly slip the stick into the slot; waiting for the unit to initialize, so that I can finally engage Rarity. I was about to say; in the flesh, but that is not quite correct. She is just a hologram. That is how the manufacturers had wanted it, and it is how the programmers and the creators intend for it to stay.

Just too bad, for them; third party merchants had not accepted the verdict; producing the products, permitting me to bypass this limitation.

As the unit had finished processing the programming, I can see Rarity standing on the screen. I have a selection of options to choose from. Fairly simple; I am given the chance to personalize her, so that she is fitting in with me where I live. Even if there are limits, to what options I had been given.

I can see the Pony before me, even if I know I could as easily change her into a fully human form. There is the chance to make her equine, but what is the fun in that; unless I had intended to ride her as if she had just been a common horse?

I choose the Anthropomorphic option, which is the middle ground. She retains everything that identifies her as Rarity. Mane, tail, horn and ears. Could I have permitted her to keep the make-up, as part of her default settings? I chose to forgo this option, in favour of applying it in person. I do have my reasons, even knowing the manufacturers would not support this. (Who cares!)

“Beautiful!” I mumble, as I am observing her before me, looking into her sapphire blue eyes.

Naturally, her skin is the same silicon white as mine is right now. While I had not seen it, my eyes are the same blue hue as hers too.

“I want her to be Rarity..” I mumble; “my Rarity..” I continue.

Her body is mainly human, no doubt about it. Her face still that of Rarity, even on a human head. The ears do not present any problems; her personal features, seamlessly blended with the features of the human body.

This far, she is staring blankly before herself, not really seeing anything in the room. She is not in the room, yet.

While I am adjusting her form, she is unconscious. She will only gain or regain her consciousness, once I am hitting engage. This is saving vital system resources, as well as limiting the chance she is getting any issues once while and after the changes has been completed. How thoughtful of them? Though I realize, this is also shielding them against the storm of complaints, from customers experiencing these issues.

Step-by-step, I had adjusted her to mirror me, in the form the tube had granted me. It had been tricky, to match the appearance perfectly; but, I think it will be worth it in the end.

“Engage!” I mumble, as I give the emitter the final command.

I am watching her slowly take on space, before she is floating down towards the floor; taking on the appearance of substance and conscious. As her hooves are finally touching the floor before me, she had picked up the appearance of Rarity; no longer a mere image or lifeless imitation of the idol I had seen on the image. She is looking at me, as is if she is actually seeing me; not merely pointing her head, in my general direction.

“Greetings, Rarity; welcome to my home!” I address her.

“Greetings, and thank you for inviting me into your home!” she responds, with the voice clearly belonging to Rarity herself.

She is standing before me, relaxing. She is clearly confident and relaxed, how typically Rarity?

“Would you like to join me, over a cup of tea?” I offer, knowing she does enjoy a good cup of tea as much as I do.

“Yes, please!” she responds.

“Right this way, please!” I respond, leading her out of the room; leading her to my kitchen, where I am preparing the tea for the both of us.

“Clip, clop; clip, clop!” is heard, as we are walking out of the room, and continue towards the kitchen.

“Of course, she is just as bare hoofed as I am!” I ponder, giggling at the reflection.

I open the door to my kitchen, and she is following me just a step behind. As expected; she is closing the door behind herself, just as she had stepped over the threshold.

I fill up the boiler, before I activate it; waiting for the water to heat up, before I can prepare the tea for the both of us. There is a tick, just as the water is starting to boil; the device automatically turning itself of, and it slowly grows quiet.

I pick up the wooden box, containing a selection of select blends I use to enjoy; opening it, as I am presenting her with the choice. I watch her smile brighten, as she is considering the option of delect flavours I had just offered her to choose from.

As I am watching, she is sniffing for the scents as she is reading the labels; making her choice, picking the tea bag of her choice.
