47th Resurrection

[sanctus_dei]

[Moving down the street is a pair of individuals. Though moving might be a generous term, as the young, disheveled and put-upon man is really being shoved from behind down the sidewalk by an orange pony in a cowboy hat.]

Ah don't care if you don't want to or not, those letters said you have to and you are not ignoring your responsibilities while Ah'm around! And don't say you have nothing to talk about either, you can just offer them one of the fritters Ah made and show them the letter you got. It's as much for their own good as yours, so git goin'!

Alright, alright! I'm going, aren't I? All I gotta do anyway is give them the old "Welcome to Mayfield, get used to a life in Hell" routine anyway.

[Applejack is literally shoving Theo down the street to do his Homeowner's Association Committee duties, so they really can be along any street, leaving it open to anybody who wants to say hi to Applejack, bug Theo, or merely comment on a full grown man carrying a tray of apple fritters being pushed along by a talking orange pony wearing a hat. They'll be stopping at the houses of Mayfield newbies too, as part of Theo's association duties make him part of the welcome wagon.

Post order will be you > Theo > Applejack!]

Hnn. Maybe. It'd rather do it without having to give them the usual Mayfield spiel and handing out baked goods though.

Maybe more stubborn than brave, but Ah try.

[Applejack looks back to Theo.]

And you might not like it, but somebody should give them a heads up about this place, don't you think?

Not to mention that not everyone can simply take waking up in such new surroundings in stride. Seeing a friendly face can go a long way to helping adjust to this place.

Theo's not exactly a 'friendly face'...not unless they're willin' to talk shop with him at any point.

Well, I should let you two get going on your errand. The quicker you go, the quicker you get this over with, eh Theo?

[sanctusdei.livejournal.com]

[Theo just shakes his head about that first point, but agrees with the second.] Yeah. Amen to that.

Well, hopefully the apple fritters will make people it more obvious we're trying to be friendly. Good food usually does.

But you're right, we probably should get back to it. It sure was nice talking with ya...um...Ah'm so sorry, Ah don't think Ah caught your name!

[weiss-tank.livejournal.com]

Food goes a long way to makein' people friendly, that's for sure. Speaking of which. Make sure Theo eats one. He gets so absorbed in what he's doing...

Oh! I'm Ken by the way. Nice to meetcha.

[sanctusdei.livejournal.com]

I don't like sweets that much anyway.

[downtoearthpony.livejournal.com]

Don't worry, Ah'll keep an eye on him. It was nice talking to you, Ken! You be sure to stop by the house when you can.

And don't worry, Theo, Ah might be best at making apple treats, but Ah know how to make some regular food too.

Thank you Applejack. I'll be sure to, besides, I kinda like playin' chess now and Theo's the only one that'll put up with how much I suck at it.

And you! [He turns to Theo] Eat more! At least you don't gotta put up with drone food anymore.
