02 Apple Fritters | Stage 4? | Backdated to 2 or 3 days after the event started
[With all the supposed fear and panic that the town has tried to recently instill on the residents, such matters actually don't affect a new arrival. Especially one who doesn't watch TV or recieve mail yet. Which is why you'll find someone trotting down the street.
Yes, trotting.
Applejack has decided that if she's stuck here, she might as well be neighborly and introduce herself. So she borrowed her house's kitchen and supplies to make a couple of homemade apple pies. Using years of practice, she keeps them balanced on her back as she moves from house to house, knocking on each door and calling out:]
"Hello? Anypony in there? It's your new neighbor Applejack being friendly and bringing some pie for ya!"
[And no, unless you're a drone who treats her like a dog, or keep her from seeing you in there, she is not leaving until you do answer. Though once answered, she will offer you a nice slice of some delicious smelling apple pie! She'll introduce herself as well, offer to help out if you need it because you're neighbors after all, and she'll also pepper you with questions about the town as she tries to find out more information about Mayfield. She's not being subtle about the questions, but not forceful either, she is genuinely trying to get information in a way she knows how and being sincere in her offers of help and pie.]
((OOC: Applejack is literally going door to door to offer slices of pie and get some answers, as such she's pretty much breathing in massive truth gas. But this is Applejack, who's pretty honest to begin with so it really won't affect her unless she hits Stage 5. So folks who want to respond can just sit back and chat with AJ or try and figure out how to get an orange talking pony off their front porch.))

But sure thing, sugar cube.
[Applejack reaches back and grabs one of the plates with the already cut pie, offering it to him.]
Help yourself to a slice!
[She speaks pretty articulately with the plate there. Kinda like she's had practice.]

Huh. Not too shitty. Never thought a fucking horse could cook.
...This town is weird.
no subject
Like Ah said, it's a blue-ribbon winning recipe and Ah can tell you there's some mighty stiff competition for baked goods where Ah come from.
But yeah, this town is pretty strange to me. A lot of the stuff around look like familiar things back home, but sized different, and then there's just a bunch of stuff Ah've never seen before in mah life!
Like you hue-mins. There ain't any hue-mins in Equestria, as far as Ah know, and Ah've never met one until Ah found myself here.
no subject
[What is this he can't even.]
no subject
It's kinda strange though, we've got Dragons, Hydras, and Manticores, so you'd think something like you hue-mins would pop up, but never heard of one once and Ah doubt Ah know anyone who has either.
no subject
[There has to be something going on there...]
So it's fucking fairytale animal land then?
no subject
But we don't really have that feudal type of deal, you know, with royalty looking over peasants and knights rescuing damsels in distress?
no subject
Welcome to the real world. Where everything's shitty as hell. If that's the kind of place you're from you're really not prepared for it.

But still, if there ain't any of those around, what makes you think Ah'm not prepared to handle it here?
...You didn't see that account fail
The real world isn't full of princesses and rainbows and all that shit.
You're right, I didn't!
Ah work on a farm, you don't think that's some hard work to handle getting up at the crack of dawn and laboring in the fields most of the day?
And Ah'm not the only one who works where Ah come from. Just because Equestria sounds nice to you doesn't make living there any easier. Very few ponies get things handed to them on a silver platter.

Well that was a rude way of saying goodbye. Going to have to remember get him out of the doorway next time Ah bring some food or visit.
