Rising Dusk

Rusk has twin pet otters named RootBeer and Float.

I'd probably weep for the first 33 seconds as I reconcile with the fact that I won't be able to eat meat again and still be socially accepted. Then spend the next 55 seconds dealing with the fact that I may have just been cartoonified to exist in this world. With the first minute and 28 seconds out of the way, time to get to work! Hopefully I end up close to Ponyville. Going straight to Canterlot to see Princess Celestia or Princess Luna, might not be the smartest decision. Those Royal Guards don't seem the most understanding of stallions to just approach as a strange and probably unseen before creature. Ponyville would probably be far more welcoming, plus the added benefit of Twilight's curious nature to always want to study something new, should help make the transition more smooth. At that point, try and work toward making friends with the rest of Ponyville, with a focus on the mane 6 and try to find a place in the world. I most likely won't have the benefit of a cutie mark, but I'm sure I'll figure something out with the help of new found friends. Probably start out working in Sweet Apple Acres or Sugarcube Bakery since I do have a decent amount of baking and cooking experience. Keeping busy while I attend Twilight's daily study periods. Not sure where I'd stay or if they'd make a house specially for me, but hanging out at Twilight's in the mean time could be fun. I'd also need to get on Rarity's good side, as I'm going to have to challenge her in making sure I have cloths. I'm not quite sure if I'd pursue a goal of finding magic to turn myself into a pony or not. I'd have to wait and see how the weeks, months or years go in Equestria and how my friends might feel about it. Many hours will be spent in an arm chair by a fireplace to ponder this issue.

There is a cute picture of Fluttershy that I love, but I'm not sure if it's cheating or not for this considering it has another pony in it. So for a solo Fluttershy, this has always been cute to me. Hang around animals long enough and somepony might start picking up their habits!

Turn myself in to deny anypony else the reward! Oh, and then probably found out what I did wrong to prove my innocence. That's important too... Oh? Capital punishment without due process? Wow Princess you've gotten dark... Glad I prepared my Cursed Phylactery for just this occasion! Hey, don't question why I've prepared for this type of moment...

The way Equestria works does seem a bit weird at times. Overall, it does appear that the various Mayors hold most of the power in their respective cities/villages. To the point that when they meet in Canterlot for U.N. type summits, they are able to put a Princess under hoof. Something that seems to be missing from the series, is that we don't see the Royalty really create laws. Which means this is possibly taking place at the lower levels by the Mayors. So, even though we have Princess Celestia, Luna and Cadance listed as rulers in some form, at most we seem them in more ceremonial positions rather than the position of a ruler by our standards. Twilight is in the most awkward of positions. She's a Princess, yet outside of a few ceremonial purposes, we never see her in a position of excising any type of rule or power. Sure, we see her status honored out of respect, especially when Spike abuses the use of it, but we see this type of power come for the same kind we give celebrities. However, there are also times when she visits places during her Friendship Missions and such, that she's treated with indifference or with little care from the public that she's a Princess. She has a castle in Ponyville, yet isn't listed or mentioned as the ruler of Ponyville. In this respect, it appears if anything that the 'ruling' Alicon class of Princess' is more akin to being well respected neutral mediators that serve to settle disputes between Mayors so that Equestria doesn't spiral into chaos, rather than those that make the law of the land for all Equestria. There is also that little blurb when Princess Luna made her appearance in Luna Eclipse and she carried a much stronger demeanor, and loud voice, we more associate with somepony that rules. Going on about 'Old Canterlot'. So was there a time that the Sun and Moon ruled with a more iron hoof? Politics doesn't seem to a focus the creators are all that interested in, and I don't blame them. Just my two bits.

Mmm... Sounds like the thought project behind this is more along the lines of would I rather have ponies invade my universe and live with me or I invade their universe as a pony. Very interesting. Can I live in Equestria as a human? No? Becoming a pony and going to Equestria it is!
