Filthy Acts at A Reasonable Price
Funny Valentine: Part 2
Previous ChapterNext Chapter"Ummm, hi?"
I look at the lizard. . . dragon preteen? That's just my guess, he (judging from his voice) could be centuries old. I'm just gonna ask.
"Excuse me for my bluntness but are you perhaps a dragon?"
He begins to dawn a worried look on his face. *Why is he- Don't tell me that this place has racial superiority.* "Ummm, yeah I am."
"Huh . . . that's neat. May I ask you a few more questions? If that all right you or you have the time."
The young drake looks behind him as if he is looking for someone then too me.
"Yeah, I've got time. Can I ask you some in return?"
"Splendid, also yes. Now my first question is that do you have a place where I can look or buy a map of this country because I have lost mine earlier."
"Y-yeah, I know a place, come follow me."
"Thank you good sir." Well so far so good, now I just have to wait for the government's & populace's response. I turn towards the shark puppies & whistle that were moving then I turn at Stray Cat giving him a look to hold back to which he nods & meows in acknowledgement. Now I need to make up a convincing lie for myself when they ask about where I come from because I don't want be experimented on or shipped off to a mental asylum then have my shit & companions taken. Last thing I need is this place have the fall of Rapture or Columbia. As we were walking a bit as I was making a background story when the young drake asks,
"My name is Spike by the way & if it's not too much to ask, may I ask what species are you as well as your pets? Because I have done a bit of reading of the world & never saw your race in the book of ' Different Races from all over Gaia'."
So this planet is called Gaia huh kinda like Earth or Terra then. I turn to look at him & non-chantly say, "I am a human being or if you want to be more scientific Homosapien," It's not like they've seen any humans before but the possibility of another person being transported here the same way like me is very high seeing how Loki has done this shit before, "& the reason that you haven't seen my race in any books published here is because we secluded ourselves from the rest of the world a very long time ago. As for my companions here I don't even know they just followed me on my journey." I lied, there's a good possibility that there is someone else who ended up here like me right now but they're transported across the country or the world.
"Um why did you guys seclude yourselves?"
"Because we are the most flawed species to ever walk this planet. Literally anything can put us six feet under the ground or water. We don't have hard scales, wings, fins, super strength, or the ablity to cast magic. As result we were bullied by the other races because of how weak we are. The only reason we managed to live this long was because of our tenacious will to survive."
He looks a sad at the thought as if he knows what it's like, "So how about-"
I cut him off abruptly, "If your going to ask where I am from I can't answer that due to how they drugged, blindfolded me, & numbed my senses to prevent from the past repeating."
"Then why-"
"The government from where I am would rather have them let them tell them rather than have them sneak behind our backs doing that stuff illegally & selling us out."
This should be a decent enough story to throw them off me. Now that I think about it, if the corpse parts are here then I have to do quite of bit of research, specifically history, in order to decide on what to do with them. Going back to Earth is out of the question seeing how that I'm dead back there & even if I do who's to say that I'll return back to myself or be outside. All I know I could be put inside the coffin buried alive. I shudder at the thought of the entire JoJo fandom pressuring me to become the President of the United States. I see a large tree with several windows, a couple of balconies, & a door in the middle of the trunk.
"What is that place?"
"Oh this the public library of Ponyville."
*Fucking Ponyville? Why do I get the feeling that I'll see more horse puns in the future.* Clearing the thoughts out my head he opens the door leading inside but I stop & ask.
"Do I have be a citizen of this nation in order to check out a book?"
He lifts up a finger to say something but lowers it back down, "I'm not sure actually. Also pets are allowed in as long they're well trained."
We head inside the building I close the door behind me using D4C after the shark puppies & Stray Cat pass through & the sight before us is messy. There are streamers, food, paper plates, & cups all over the place. Not messy like the college parties mind you but still messy. It's a lot bigger in the inside & my guess is that magic has a huge part here.
"He he. Sorry about the mess the ponies here had a party several hours ago."
"It's fine seeing how the place isn't trashed. I'll help you clean this up but first do you know where I can put my duffle bag & bow down?"
"Um no I don't but you just place it by the stairs."
I look towards the direction of he's pointing & see the stairs. Makes sense seeing how there's a second story judging by windows outside. I whistle to catch the attention of shark puppies who immediately stop & look at me. I move my head towards the general direction of the stairs which they understand. I put my bag down then tell them not to go up & Stray Cat gives a nod to which he'll watch them. As we're picking up the trash I notice that some the books have a weird text or something this catches my attention. Mentally scolding myself for such a major error, I can't believe I was under the assumption that the written language would be same. Cleaning the trash from the floor was relatively quick & easy. He notices me staring at the books writing with a confused look on my face.
"Um not too be rude but can you not read?"
"I can read but not your written language. I'm still amazed that we speak the same language but out of curiosity what is the most spoken language across the globe?"
He ponders for a bit then says "If I have to guess it would Equish, then Griffic, & Mexicolt."
I'm using D4C to physically restrain me from face palming myself. *Those shitty horse puns, so I'm guessing those are synonyms to English & Spanish but I'm not sure for Griffic though. What's next Neighponese?*
"Thank you for using your time for showing me the way to the library. Now would you kindly tell me where I can get a place to sleep & yes I do have the money." As I pull out my pouch filled with these bits.
His eyes go wide that's not a good sign. Did that fucking god just scam me? I-
"How do you have aluminum?!"
*Huh?*
"Not even the nobility up in Canterlot have a lot of aluminum, even those that do have them don't even have that much on them, I mean to carry physically around with them."
*Nobility huh? This place's government is either an absolute monarchy, constitutional monarchy, or a feudalist country as hinted by the tall white one earlier.*
"So about that hotel?"
"Huh? Oh yeah I show you right now as a thank you for helping me. Usually I'm just the only how cleans up after everypony else."
*Everypony? That's a very supremacist word if ever heard of one. The way his tone of voice changes near the end really supports my theory about this place having some sort of supremacist propaganda. Well time to change the world with one small step. I hold out my hand towards him saying,
"Well then Spike if this isn't too much to ask would you like to be my friend?"
He looks up at me with a look of pure disbelief as if this has never happened to him before. I wonder if this is what befriending the quiet kid feels like.
"I would love to be your friend ummmm. . .?"
"Oh my apologies for not giving you my name earlier. It is Valentine, Funny Valentine & I hope our friendship will be a great one." I tell him as I shake his hand.
Author's Note
Sorry for not posting sooner, work is been tiring for me barely have time for myself to write this story. Also I hated the how the series showed spike as a simp & slave throughout the entire franchise like SAO.
