Log 4169: Back to Equestria

Author's Note:

Holy freakin' geez, did this take a while to update. The real challenge here is to recapture Gadget's voice in the story, considering how much I've grown used to writing in a somewhat-distanced third-person perspective in Pony-Me, or the overly sarcastic third-person in The Amazing Adventures of Butter Knife.

Celestia burst through the portal with a massive grin on her face. And from the looks of it, she's pretty much set as far as finding a place for a helipad. So... I guess it's time for us to go back to Equestria now? I turned to face Delmar, who was currently dozing off on a stack of papers.

"Hey." I began, prodding the guy with a hoof, "Wake up, sleepyhead. Celestia's back."

Delmar yawned, waving a hoof back at me. "Just lemme sleep a bit more, Gadget. It's not like we have to leave for Equestria immediately."

"GADGET!" Celestia suddenly burst over my shoulder, "Get Delmar back through the portal, we've got helicopters to bring through!"

I facehoofed.

"C'mon," She continued, tugging at my tail, "Get him some coffee or something. Or maybe leave him behind for now."

"Nope. I'm not gonna leave him behind, and he deserves some sleep anyways." I shook my head. "Can't we just, like, levitate him back through the portal or something?"

Celestia paused for a moment, staring between me and Delmar. "Eh. Fine." She continued, "Let's go!"

A glow surrounded Delmar as he was lifted off the stack of papers. He snorted a bit before waking.

"Whuh?" He groaned, flailing lazily in the air, "Hey, put me down. I--" He yawned. "I can walk."

After Celestia put the guy back down, we set off through the portal.

Yaaaaaaay. More swirly colors... and Equestria!

I'm guessing that the trip back went well?

Yup. It sure did.

Good. See you on the other side!

Wait, WHAT?!

I'm just joking, geez. Anyways, enjoy your stay there!

"So..." I began, facing Celestia, "How are we gonna get something as big as an Apache helicopter through the portal?"

A heavy thump turned my attention to Delmar, who was once again faceplanted.

"Urk." He groaned, "Is that transformer machine thing that Ranell was working on finished yet?"

Oh. I forgot that he was also waiting to go through that thing. I turned to Celestia. "Um..." I tapped on her shoulder. "Could we wait for Delmar to go back through the portal and do something real quick?"

Celestia shrugged. "Sure." She replied, leaning against the still-burnt walls of the portal room. "I'm guessing he doesn't want to be a pony anymore?"

I nodded as I shoved Delmar back through the portal. Again.
