They landed. It was rough, rough enough that he fell over sideways, probably from a sprained ankle. He rolled in the dirt, slicing open his clothes and skin on twigs and rocks and rubbing dirt all over the wet slime that covered his body. Yet at the bottom of a little hill he finally came to a stop, and Harley beside. He offered his hand to Harley. “You okay?”She seemed barely able to stand, weakness clear in her face. “Lost my damn wand with that teleport.” She held up one hand, which had numerous…-

Mira stared into the face of a terrified bat, feeling a little of that same confusion and disorientation herself. Of course this bat wasn't covered in the slime of little bathing and slow rot of her body, and her muscles hadn't atrophied from disuse. But other than that, they were basically the same.Mira didn't have the energy to urge her away. Instead she just waited, standing still, until the bat stopped screaming. "If you don't mind," she gasped, as soon as she'd finished. "I would like to bathe. The…-

Princess Luna, Dreambringer, Patron of Stars and Nightmares, was standing less than a meter away, expression annoyed. This was the kind of thing ponies had nightmares about. She’d done something dumb enough to upset Equestria’s rulers, and now she would face terrible consequences. Even worse, her guest from another world somehow couldn’t tell a princess when he saw one, and didn’t even know to bow. He stared stupidly at her, mouth hanging open, and didn’t even try to share the proper…-

“I can't believe we're actually doing this.”Lyra wasn't sure how many times she'd said it. Enough times that even her familiar grew sick of listening to her, and rolled his eyes when she spoke. Considering Capper was captive in the hollow of a large tree, that was saying something. The cat sheltered there, keeping his head far back enough that he wouldn't be washed away by the downpour of rain. It helped—she knew from their shared sensations that the cat felt dry while she was totally soaked. Lucky…-

I’m going to screw this up. I’m completely over my complexity level. As soon as I say anything they’ll know I’m an imposter and try to kill me.Felicity had come first as the captain of their exploration ship, then later as an advisor with some personal connection to the dead.

Golden Wind wanted to get a few private minutes with Starlight Glimmer. He still didn't know where he stood with the mare—whether their night together was a product of stress, or if it reflected some deeper feelings she might share. But as so many times before, Golden Wind's personal desires had to bow to the urgency of their rebellion. Rainbow Dash and Rarity met them on the steps, and soon he was together with the rebellion's leaders in the castle's largest meeting room.Each took a cushion around a…-

They hiked together for hours through the jungle, long enough that Lane grew tired of flying and found a more comfortable perch on Elisa's shoulder. She had an excuse: she had to save her strength in case they encountered anything dangerous! There were plenty of dangerous things out in the jungle, though not nearly as many as they'd been led to believe. "None of these Pokémon attack humans on sight," Dominic said, when they were finally settling down to camp for the night.…-

I sat alone at the prow of the Daughter of Wintergreen, letting the wind lift my wings. Standing there with my eyes closed, I could almost understand why so many ponies liked to fly. They could have this feeling whenever they wanted, and without a machine to restrict their movement. The Daughter of Wintergreen brought with it a noisy thaumic impellor, and a floor that shuddered and listed gently with every passing gasp of wind.“Didn’t think I’d find you up here!” Dawn said. I didn’t turn around,…-

Getting back from the dangerous anti-magic crater proved a far easier task than getting themselves lost in it in the first place. Granted, it was much easier to climb out of the place when every part of it wasn't trying to kill them. They could've flown out, assuming Ocellus was willing to change into something big to carry the two members of their group who couldn't get airborne.But even while she wasn't wielding the scepter herself, she had a feeling that trying to carry it while looking like another…-

“You sure you want to come?” Silverstream asked, her voice a little tentative. “I mean, it is gonna be late, and those legs are so short! If you want to stay here and sleep with the others…”“No, I wanna come.” She could tell her answer was a disappointment to the only other one of the mythical creatures who intended on making the trip—the griffon named Gallus. But he did his best to hide it, looking away and pawing at the ground so that whenever Silverstream glanced in his direction, he was…-
