never heard of this thingy.

...equestria?

..excuse me?

ur in equestria, home of the horses. or as we like to say, ponies. ur a unicorn, i hope? better get a hold of that magic soon.

if not a unicorn, ur a pegasus and u can fly. magic. earth ponies are js built different, idk

but its all ***magic*** :D

gee, thanks.

ik exactly how to use magic bc i js got here in this world i didnt even kno had magic!

great! then u surely dont need my advice.

so y u still asking me? i thought u knew??

-_-

ur so stupid sometimes, yk tha

that*

stupid now?

yes. stupider by the second. but hol up, purple unicorn with wings talkin. she makes herself sound important as hell.

thats cuz she is :)

thats princess twilight

twi shouldnt be intimidating, but she is a princess.

sess?

its been 4 minutes...

sry. that princess of urs was talking abt my phone. she doesnt want it here. calls it 'magic beyond normal; altho clearly shes the one with the crazy big magic. also, question, do all princesses know everybodys name just like that?

uh no y??

she called me by my name and talked abt things i thot i never shared with anybody

well maybe that explains things

u sunset shimmer? cuz thats me.

yea- was kinda surprised i became friends w/ someone with the 'shim' part. i thot it could be a shimmy thing, like a dance, yk?

nope.

its me.

ME!!!

moi :o

...

how?

dimensions and basically otherworld duplicates. I may have overstayed in ur world instead of my magical one but oh well.

this place has magic of its own.

I have magic of my own. Over on both sides of the portal. :P

...

i thot u got mental help already.

when did i say that? i would never-

before our talk?

lmao lmao lmaooo

no no no nonono

i said i was ready. for questions.

not mental help! i could never ask of such a thing!

thats fair. youd make a therapist need a therapist himself.

yea yea.

wtv u say, prinsess

yk what-?

just stop.

stop-

shimmer, stop.

hmmmmmm???????

stop what, exactly?

yk, getting off track and making me do it too. ur so annoying, yk that?

so ive been told. by u, at least. but hey, since im u, ig we're maybe both insane! isnt that great! we can be insane together!!!!!!

i have at least double the sanity that u could ever have. go get help and try to see that for urself. also, how r u acting so casually abt this all?

bout what?

yk, the fact that im in a magical pony world where i can still talk, i have no clothes on but i do have a tattoo on my totally exposed butt, and the fact that im sitting in a princess castle with an item that may be an offense to this poor town and yet she doesnt seem to care at all?

oh

well

it's normal...

right?

maybe..?

NO!!

DEF NOT

NOT AT ALL

geez prinsess girly pop, wtv. shut it with the drama.

HOW?!?!

ALL MY THINGS ARE HORSE THINGSSS

What did I just read

[TheGJ90]

Hahaha, so one Sunset fell into Equestria via a well Little Jimmy Style, while the other is just enjoying this for all its worth.

A very normal, friendly conversation

[PseudoBob Delightus]

Very nice. It absolutely reads like an excerpt of a longer conversation between two characters who already know each other, which is not easy to do. Also:

ALL MY THINGS ARE HORSE THINGSSS

lol. lmao even

[Bicyclette]

SHES RUBBING OFF ON ME HAHA LOL WHOOPS SRY

hehe that did sound quite Trixie-ish

sry. but im so confused and idekkk what im doing here. i fell into a well, i shouldnt be alive. i at least shouldnt be a talking horse thats bacon-colored.

hey it’s her mane that is bacon colored, not her!

sry. that princess of urs was talking abt my phone. she doesnt want it here. calls it 'magic beyond normal; altho clearly shes the one with the crazy big magic.

so true the curse of smartphones do NOT belong in Equestria!

wtv u say, prinsess

hehe that means something different from where Sunset (the horse) is from! and i thought “sess” was going to be a cool misspelling of “sis” at first, but it originating from “princess” is a cool idea!

---

i see that Sunset (the horse) has taken to internet IM speak very well. thank you for writing!

I hate starring down the wrong end of a generation gap. I blame my English teacher of a mother; I can feel her leering over my shoulder if I don’t properly punctuate my texts…

In any case, an entertaining epistolary story. I do have to wonder how the Sunset in Equestria has cell service in a world where telephones were only ever seen in background (well, foreground) gags, but the answer there is probably “magic.”

I’m honestly more interested in how the Sunsets met and exchanged contact information in the first place, but that is outside the scope of the story. As is, entertaining concept, but you didn’t do terribly much with it. I like the idea of pony Sunset being so inured to exploring other worlds that she doesn’t understand her counterparts panic, especially in her native world, but beyond that there’s just not much here. Still, thank you for it.
