==> Feel extremely embarrassed.
Oh God dammit. Waaaaaay ahead of you. You let go of Shining Armor just as his face begins getting just a little blue. The stallion took a gasp of air before looking at you with bewilderment and just a little fear. Way to go, a-hole. You just terrified one of your favorite ponies.
"Um... I'm really sorry about that..."
Shining just stared at you. Damn was this awkward.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
What was this guy? That was kind of rhetorical, because Shining did know that he was a human... at least he thought so. But he had... a lot of power. It was almost overwhelming. The white stallion had to sit down before he collapsed.
"It's... It's alright? W-Who are you?"

"Well... Yeah, I guess it's okay, but still I-" Twilight began, trying her best to smile despite the awkwardness.
"Sorry ponies, he's with me."
--------------------------------------------------
==> Approach the scene
You do as such, smiling awkwardly at the situation. "I apologize, but as you recall I wasn't that much different when I first met you guys." You shrug. "He's as much a big fan of yours as I am."
Twilight looks at you a moment, before recognizing you.... DAMN it feels good to type that. "Oh! Hey there, Alex. Nice to see you again! What brings you by here?"
==>
(Aaron notices Pieter's wierd look.)
Eh you could explain later. "Well, we're mostly here because of my friend here he's been dying to meet you, you see."
Twilight rolls her eyes, smiling a bit as she looks to Pieter. "I guess this means your from the same world as Alex right? Well it's a pleasure to meet you." She chuckles awkwardly. "Don't worry too much about explaining, your friend had an episode similar to yours before. Me and my friends were knowledgable about this TV show, so we were prepared for it..... Well, as prepared as anyone can be for their fans."

==> Be slightly perplexed.
Why did she call him 'Alex'? That's... a little bizarre. You decided to ask him later, though. Questions to answer and all that.
"Um... yeah, I am. Hehe... Sorry about that, Shining... I still forget my own strength sometimes."
Boy was that an understatement. Your aura still exuded around you.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Shining just nodded lightly, just a little too freaked out by the human to say much.

==> Indulge in the comedy
You do as such as soon as you reach the table, patting Pieter on the back. As soon as you do that, it appears Tao decides to say something on the matter of her new company as she leans on the table, looking at Twilight. "Ooooh! We're meeting some horsies? Hi Horsies! Tao is Taokaka meow! Hehehehe! You're so cute!"
Twilight looks at you curiously, definately unsure about Tao. "Uh, Alex, who is this?"
You pretty much just laugh at Tao's cheerful nature. "Hahahaha, don't mind Tao, Twiley. She's just a cute and innocent little pussy cat. She wouldn't hurt a fly."
==> Tao: Agree with Shadow Guy!
(GIF: Tao now has her hands raised in the air, waving them back and forth playfully and airily.)
You raise your arms gleefully and smile oh so widelyyyyyyyy! "Yep not a fly not a fly in the world meow!"
==> Aaron: Laugh at Tao's antics
(Aaron is seen chuckling.)
Twilight meanwhile just watches as this goes on before she lets out a breath. Obviously after Pinkie Pie she was quite used to this by now. "Well I see... I'm glad to see that you found yourself a new little friend to look after Alex. She seems really nice." Sure Twilight was OBVIOUSLY unsure about Tao's mental state, but she was willing to overlook that. "It's also nice to meet your old friend from your world....."
==>
Twilight takes in the man a moment, looking to her discerningly... "If I might say so though... That's one powerful aura he has... I guess you weren't kidding when you mentioned... 'God-Tiers' was it?"

Shining laughed softly as he watched the little catgirl. "Y'know, Twiley, she kinda reminds me of how you were as a filly~" He playfully jabbed his little sister in the side, sticking his tongue out teasingly.
Shining waved to Taokaka. "My name's Shining Armor; what's yours~?" He was back in 'big brother' mode.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
==> Hear the lavender equine's comments.
You did. How much did Aaron tell her about the game...?
"Aaron, just how much did you tell her...?" You turn towards Twilight. "...Yeah, I... have quite a bit of power. I don't know how much he told you but... yeah.

==>
(Twilight sticks her tongue out at Shining right back.)
==>
(Before she focuses back on Aaron and Pieter)
It becomes apparent a second later, by Twilight's cross stare, that something was up on that angle. "Honestly, he hasn't really told me that much at all. All I really know is the God-Tier stuff, but even then I don't know much." Her cross stare turns curious. "Aaron's made it clear that not every human can do that, but he won't even tell me what the requirements were."
==>
(Aaron leans over to Pieter.)
His next words were said in a whisper, "I didn't tell them about the game, don't worry."
==>
(Aaron then pulls away, and smiles as he looks to Tao, whom appeared to blush at Shining's greeting.)
Tao giggled at Shining before responding herself in kind. "Hehehehe, Tao is Taokaka, meow! It's nice to meet Nice Shiny pony meow!" There came her nicknaming thing. But hey, at the very least she was close to being right on one of the words.

Pieter leaned in to respond to Aaron. "Alright... well, how the hell do I explain... well, maybe this'll work."
While Shining smiled at Tao and patted her head, chuckling, Pieter looked over at Twilight. "Well... it's... kinda hard to explain. Basically... I was able to awaken a power I didn't even know I had in me... something unique to me. It required very specific circumstances, but... if it's okay, I'd prefer to keep that to myself. I'll just say this, it wasn't the most pleasant of experiences."
He hoped that explanation would satisfy the intellectual mare.

==> Be said Inquisitive Mare
You take in the young man of curious origins unsure about what to make of his short and decidedly vague explanation.... After a moment though, you let out a sigh. Alex had been even more vague before him... Maybe there was a reason for their silence? "Well... Okay. If you say so..." Rolling her eyes, she sits down again. "I still don't know why you would want to keep quiet about that though... It sounds like quite the story."
Alex shakes his head, "Boy ain't THAT an understatement..."
==> Aaron; Pat Tao on the head.
You do so, causing the girl to pur when you scratch behind her ears. "See Twiley? She's not so bad. This little cutie just wants some friends. Right Tao?"
Tao continued to pur. "Hehehe! yeaaaah fuuuriends.... Oh! A little to the left Shadow Guy, meow!" You chuckle as you follow this request.
==>
(As this all goes on, no-one knows that a mysterious power rests deep within Twilight Sparkle, watching this scene with great interest.)
==>
(We zoom in on a pair of chaotic red eyes deep within the Unicorn's mind.)
"Well, well well what's this?"

Pieter: Get a sudden chill up your spine.
You shiver lightly. That was damn eerie. No fucking clue where that came from. Oh well... everyone else seems to be having too good a time... must've just been your imagination. You chuckle lightly, watching the scene.
-------------------------
Shining Armor, being the good big brother he was, was giving the catgirl a good nuzzling, chuckling; she really did remind him a lot of his little sister as a filly.
"Heheh~"

You take a moment to take in the cuteness before you turn to Twilight. She appeared to decide to do similarly, giggling at the cuteness as Shining coddled the little cat girl. She must have started to see the similarities between herself and Tao by then.
==> Twilight; Talk to Aaron
No, no you have not seen the similarities, you have NOT. At least you were more intelligent as a kid. "Soooo... Twilight..." You turn to him as he tries addressing you, leaving Tao with Shining Armor. "What have you been up to lately? It's been a few days since we first met."
==> Twilight: Remember this.
Ah you remembered that. That certain event allowed you to meet a delightful creature named Rulett Doujou. She was such a timid little thing; sure she knew about you and your friends, but she wasn't too informed on them aside from that. Still she was a nice person, as far as fans went. Aaron had been far worse when he came looking for her...
==>
Ah good memories. "Well if you must know, Alex. Me and my brother have been looking into various magics all around the island. Where-ever we can find magic books of any kind, we go to look. Call it preparing properly for whatever this island has to offer."
This whatever caused her to shudder, more then remembering Exdeath...
"Yeah, that's definately the smart thing to do. Good thinking."

The white stallion had since tossed the little catgirl onto his broad back and was trotting her around, laughing lightly, like he often did when he was playing with Twilight as a younger colt. While he did so, his worries and rather scarring memories of Exdeath were temporarily forgotten. He seemed more at ease than he had in weeks.
---------------------
==> Pieter: Smile and D'aww at the sight.
You do, though you keep the D'aww rather quiet. You then walk over. "Twilight, if I can ask, what kind of stuff have you run into? I mean, it's a good idea to be prepared, but for what?"

==> Alex; Notice uncomfortableness.
(Twilight winces at the question.)
Oh boy this was not going to end well, you could just tell...
"W-well... During my first few weeks on the island, I was visiting the library in Void City...." She let out a sigh. "While we were there, the library was attacked... He... His power was unbelievable... He... He called himself Exdeath..."
==> ?!?!?!?! aklnmadslfjlksdagnbsadkllfjnjdkfsgjnsd
Everything Twilight says immedaitely after blanks out, as your eyes widen and you're heart starts thumping in your chest at ungodly levels. You were very close to having a panic attack...
Only one thought reverberated through your head.
'EXDEATH WAS HERE?!?!'
'EXDEATH WAS HERE ON THIS ISLAND?!?'
==> Twilight; continue explanation
You do as such keeping your voice low so as not to alert Shining Armor. "H-he was too much for us... Too much for me.... Had it not been for the help of a passing stranger and our friends we wouldn't be standing here right now."
You lower your head. "We've all suffered some kind of blow from that battle..." She looks to Shining Armor as she said that...
However, what kind of blow Shining suffered was never fully covered.

==> Pieter: Be just as shocked as Aaron.
You keep your voice low.
"Exdeath? As in... Master-Of-The-Void Exdeath? Baby-Blue Armor? Monologues a lot?" You glance over at your friend. You knew that he was afraid of becoming like him...
...All of them suffered...? You glance over at Shining, playing with Taokaka without a care in the world, it seemed. ...Twilight's lack of explanation did not seem encouraging. Just what had happened there...?

You look to Pieter, wiping a tear from your eye. "I'd... I'd rather not say... It's... It's too much..." You turn away with that said. "A-Anyways, that's why I'm preparing... I'm going to be ready next time I see him. I have to be, for all of our sakes-"
Around that time you FINALLY notice Aaron and how he looks close to freaking out. "Uh... Is Alex okay there?" She points her hoof at him. "He looks like he's about to have a heart attack..."

Okay, it must've been pretty bad if she's crying a tear at the memory... damn you hate seeing that. Ponies shouldn't cry like that. It's just wrong...
==> Pieter: look at your freaking out friend.
Uh oh. Better calm him down before Shining notices. You decide to do so the only way you think ideal. ...You slap him across the face. "Get a hold of yourself, Aaron. C'mon, you're way stronger than Baby Blue there. We've been friends for how long now?"
You look over at Twilight, still thankful that Shining seems to be keeping Taokaka occupied... is she brushing his mane? Well, whatever keeps her occupi- where the hell did she get that brush? ...Okay, you'll figure that mystery out later. For now...
You turn to Twilight. "We know Exdeath. He's a character from a rather popular video game series from our world... and Aaron here... or... Alex as you know him... he's got Void powers like him. Thing of it is, though, is that he's a far better person than creepy ever could be."
