It's okay to be a brony?
chapter 1
Load Full Story*Walks into Toys R Us*
Person: Hiya, I would like to apply for a job here, can I have a resume-
Cashier: Okay first question, are you a brony who just wants to apply to see our MLP section in the back?
*Panel shot there’s a whole bunch of MLP toys in the storage room and the door’s wide open, in the PERSON’s mind the area is GLOWING.*
*Person’s eye twitches* Person: No- of course not! *Slaps-self* I am absolutely NOT a brony!
*My little pony theme song rings on their cellphone* *Person slaps self again, his forehead gets even redder* *the cashier is smirking, she’s leaning up against the counter looking like ‘uh-huh’.*
Sam: Hiya George wanna watch Season’s 3’s livestream with me-
George: NO SAM NO I DO NOT- *in a whisper voice* maybe later kays?
*The cashier’s face is like ‘oh you got some explaining to do.*
George: What’s wrong with being a brony? We’re a proud people!
*The cashier face-palms.* Cashier: take it up with the chief, it’s not my decision, not my rules, look pal, I just work here.
*Next shot, George is at home. He’s browsing some MLP forum.* George: Like OMG, totally! They snubbed me! I KNOW!
*George leans back and sighs he looks at the celling and then begins to think what the cashier said.* George thinking: take it up with the chief…huh…
*The next day George comes back to Toys R US*
*Cashier brings out pepper spray.*
George: Whoa hold it lady; I just want a friendly chat with your manager, no harm done.
*She lowers the pepper spray.*
*George is lead into the back.* Cashier: BOSS, the brony’s back! *She quickly exists the room and he give she a nasty snarl.*
*The manager is twirled around in his chair and reading a newspaper, he’s not looking at George, and George is upset.*
Manager: Huh, you comin back boy?
George: What’s wrong with bronies? I don’t see the damn problem-
*The manager turns around in his seat and places the paper down. He sighs.* Manager: Listen kid, your intentions are good, but your fanbase is well, creepy. We’ve got priorities here.
George: I LOVE a children’s show, this is a TOY STORE; what priorities can you possibly have that I don’t meet?
The manager: …. like I said, your intentions are good in all, but you’re eighteen correct? Can’t you, I dunno, like the avengers or something?
George: Ooh I got it, it has something to do with my sexuality! Your worried about THAT!
Manager: I didn’t say that!
George: I knew it, everyone who sees a male brony thinks they’re a gay faggot! Well lemme tell you something mister, the pony fandom is a proud group of people. We’ve even started a charity and we never expected anything from it, we didn’t want anything in return, but lots of people supported us. All we do is wanna have fun. Why can’t people let us do that?
Manager: …. look, I’ll confess, my son, he’s a well, brony and I find it creepy-
George: WELCOME TO THE HEARD! My brethren, welcome thee!
Manager: Yeah, yeah, don’t mention it kid, really. Don’t mention it. Ever since he’s been obsessed with these… ponies… this one pink one, Pinkie Pie? Whatever, it’s been getting on my nerves, I wanted to ask him stuff, but all he wants to do is draw ponies.
George: So you’re taking your rage from your son out on other bronies? That’s not cool man. You shouldn’t do that.
Manager: I know; I know it!
George: Well, just let your kid enjoy what he wants to enjoy. You shouldn’t stop him from enjoying my little pony if he wants to. When he wants to open up let him, don’t force him into stuff. And wow- is that a drawing that he did?
*Sees a picture of a manga character in the background the manager turns around.*
Manager: Uh, yeah, it is, he’s a great artist-
George: I recognize that artwork! Oh my god, he’s that one guy from DeviantART!
Manager: Oh boy…
George: No no no, this is a GOOD THING, your son is amazing! He participated in Bronies For Good, he did a bunch of stuff!
Manager: Bronies for good?
George: Yeah! It’s an amazing charity that’s for kids in Uganda. He helped contribute artwork to the cause.
Manager: I had no idea…. look kid; I’m sorry about that, come back tomorrow and I’ll have a proper resume filled out for ya okay?
George: Sure thing!
*George walks out of the office and sees the cashier reading a MLP comic on her computer.* George: My, my what do we have here?
Cashier: NOTHING, it’s none of your business-
*George laughs* George: Welcome to the heard, my fellow brony~
END.
