My Name is Twilight Sparkle

[twilightpony]

Hi, my name is Twilight Sparkle, and... This is so neat! A journal in an alternate universe! What fun! All I had to figure out was how to get "e-mail address" (e for Earth?) and find an Earth journal that works well with my magic. This Dream Width looks good and oh! Comments and replies! Maybe I can make some friends here! For science!

Dream Width. Is there an Earth version of Princess Luna running this? Somehow many of you speak Pony, at least in written form.

Selecting "Post Entry", now.

Good morning, Your Highness! How very nice to see you keeping a journal here — allow me to extend a warm welcome to you. I hope you'll have as much fun writing on Dreamwidth as your audience will have keeping up with your journal.

Good evening! It has been fun so far and you are the first I've heard from "my audience". It's Hearth's Warming Day, a time for visitors, stories, friendship and harmony. With you knocking on my door as well, Hearth's Warming Day is now spanning two universes!

[schnee]

It is indeed! Although Hearth's Warming isn't well-known here, it has in fact been celebrated in the last few years (and we also have our own holidays as well, of course).

If you'll forgive my curiosity, Your Highness, how much do you know about our universe? I imagine there must be some books somewhere, buried deep in the forgotten vaults of the Canterlonian libraries — and I imagine you'd be just the pony to dig them up!

Oh, and also, would you mind if I called you Twilight? "Your Highness" sounds a bit formal.

Yes, I would like it better if you called me Twilight or Twilight Sparkle. Getting called Princess feels... off, although I should be getting used to it eventually. I wasn't always a princess.

You seem to know a lot about Equestria? And you have been celebrating Hearth's Warming? Do you go door to door singing carols and sharing stories? I see your icon is pony shaped... that would make you a fan of ponies or horses?

If there's a book or scroll on "Earth" (the universe) I haven't found it yet. With a name like Earth, such a book could be shelved with old books on agriculture and soils. I haven't devoted much time studying your universe, there is much in your science and technology that just does not apply to Equestria. You let everything just fend for itself, willy nilly.

Twilight it'll be, then!

No, singing carols around Hearth's Warming (well... the local equivalent) isn't really a thing where I live, though people in other nations do it.

Yes, I like ponies. The icon is essentially just a ponified version of my usual persona; I'm obviously not a pony myself. But I suppose you could say I'm a fan.

You let everything just fend for itself, willy nilly.

Pretty bizarre when you think about it, isn't it? It's a bit like the Everfree Forest, but without Poison Joke and Timber Wolves and other such critters.

The local equivalent of Hearth's Warming? Not to thwart augmented cold weather from taking hold. Probably to raise community spirit during the snowy winter months?

A fan of ponies, thus you drew yourself as one. I pretty much did the same for Nightmare Night, dressing up as Starswirl the Bearded, not that any of my friends knew who that was.

Yes, your world is a bit chaotic.
