Re: Ponyville Business District -Widget Whatsits' Wondrous Works
"Weeelll," Quill began, taking in a long, deep breath, because this was going to be a fairly long explanation, "the mail-pony arrived, with this big crate, and some letters, which I've organised by size and neatness of handwriting, because I didn't want to open them to sort them by urgency or alphabetically based on the first letter of the, um, letters. And then the mail-pony also had my suitcase!"
Quill gestured to the battered looking suitcase at the base of the stairs, as he'd still not plucked up the wherewithal to drag the paper-filled suitcase up Mount Stairwell.
"And I know I should have mentioned it earlier, um, really earlier, but I had a friend come along with me, um, except he got a bit lost along with the suitcase, because the train was really, um, busy and by the time I'd managed to get off and kind of, um, nurse the feeling back in to my tail, the train was already going on to the next stop! With my suitcase! And, um, my new.. um, your new assistant."
Rather than continue the explanation, Quill quickly made a dart for the kitchen, returning a few moments later with the new assistant. This particular stuffed toy was vaguely sewn together in the shape of a bear and, though only he only possessed a single button for an eye and patches of slightly singed fur, Quill didn't seem to mind. Sheepishly, he sat the bear down on the floor in front of Widget and, after nudging him a little closer with his foot, took a step back. If Widget was going to explode, he didn't want to be near the epicenter.
"Mister Widget, um, boss, this is Bearington. Bearington, this is Mister Widget."
