Dec. 19th, 2006 01:57 pmThere are odd dreams and then there are Odd Dreams. Lilly is having one of the latter.
It's a beautiful sunlit valley where winged ponies are fluttering through the air above their apple-picking friends on the ground. It's idyllic and brightly colored and... oddly familiar.
Oh my god, Lilly thinks, grinning. They're My Little Ponies! She steps closer and the scene shifts suddenly. Now she's standing on an almost comically evil-looking castle built in shades of grey. Beside her, a man wearing black moves closer to a terrified pony. He's all but twirling a mustache. She figures he's evil too.
"Think of sad things!" he orders the peach colored pony.
"But I don't want to," the pony replies, whinnying nervously. "That would be sad!"
Duh, Lilly thinks, and then reminds herself to be nice. They're a kids' toy.
"Oh no, what if there weren't enough apples for everyone!" The pony's head droops in response to the man in black's suggestion. "Then... some ponies might feel left out. Or hungry!" The grass by the pony's feet starts turning from green to grey before color starts leaching out of her hooves as well and the glitter starts to fade from her flank.
The scene cuts again, back to the valley now filled with worried ponies. "Prince G. Loom has Cherry Jubilee!" one pony neighs anxiously. "He's probably stealing her sparkle right now! We have to save her!"
"But how?" another pony whinnies. "We need help. We need someone to do something or all of our color and sparkle and shine will be gone from Dream Valley!"
"We do," yet another pony agrees. This one is mauve. "And I think I know where to find it."
Lilly's momentarily unnerved. The mauve pony's staring straight at her.
"Where, Hippity Hop?" The mauve pony, apparently named Hippity Hop, is still staring at Lilly.
"From her," it replies, prancing closer to Lilly. "If you help us, we can do it. Save Cherry Jubilee. Save the world."
Lilly wakes up abruptly, still blinking at the weirdness of it all.
Save Cherry Jubilee. Save the world. What kind of mission is that?
...Actually, it's a pretty intriguing one. The new brothel hires are settling in well, Inara's more than capable of handling any problems there, she hasn't been outside the bar in way too long, and, well. The My Little Ponies need her help. Glitter needs her help. Lilly hops out of bed, grinning.
