So...I can talk to other people this way, right?

[The video feed shakes up and down as Cambot nods.]

Really? Great!

...Wait, there are other people around, aren't there? Because crash landing in a space station ghost town wouldn't surprise me one bit.

[Pony. PONY. And she TALKS. Come on, this is every little girl's dream come true!]

Oh my goodness!

For me? Why thank you. [Kairi takes the cupcake, elated.] I'm Kairi. This is so cool! I've met talking ducks, dogs, and squirrels, but never ponies. I was waiting for the ponies.

[sailorlaughter]

Really? I've never met talking squirrels or ducks before! I DID meet some talking Diamond Dogs once, but they're not like real dogs - they're big and grey and live in tunnels. There's dogs up here, but they don't talk either. They both draw pictures instead!

[seasidememories]

That's...

...Well. That's cute.

So they draw, and you bake. How did you get so good at it? This is the best cupcake I've ever tasted.

Wow, thanks! I've had lots and lots of practice! I always used to bake all the treats for my parties on the farm myself, because everypony else was too busy to help, and then I went to work for the Cakes in their bakery and they taught me even MORE stuff! I can help teach you too, if you want!

[She just said "anypony" and what is this if not the most adorable thing ever]

You'd teach me? I'd love that! That would be a lot of fun!

[sailorlaughter]

TOTALLY! It'd be great! We could start with cupcakes, those are super-easy!
