#snippy romac

[estherterrestrial]

was thinking about the contrast between engies entries like ohh I'm the big mastermind surviving this scary world and snippy's describing him as a twitchy freak that refuses to speak to him

romac ponies ^_^

some notes:

- snippy has no cutie mark. Sad !!

- i 100% meant to make gromov a unicorn but forgot to give him a horn until it was too late. so we’re just going to say that it’s covered under his hair

- pilot has a vaguely airplane-shaped scar where his cutie mark used to be

- huge shoutout to L for bringing up blankflank snippy you’re a genus for it

bonus annet:

Entry 2: THE CALL TO ADVENTURE!

"SNIPSTER!" Captain loudly proclaimed, "I AM SENDING YOU ON A MISSION OF UTMOST IMPORTANCE!"

"Mhm." I hadn't been given a proper 'mission' since we returned from the moon. Biomatrix was still somewhere out there, so I was left to defend for myself yet again. I checked if I still had my gun on me. To my surprise, it hadn't been stolen.

"What's the mission?" I asked.

Captain grabbed me by the shoulders and pointed out a distant building.

"YOU MUST JOURNEY TO ZEE STORE AND PURCHASE SOME SNACKAGES! WE WILL NEED ZEE CALORIES IN ZEE COMING DAYS!" Captain boomed.

The practicality of the mission surprised me. Captain slapped some pieces of paper to my chest,

"ZIS SHOULD BE MORE ZHAN ENOUGH PAYMENT FOR ZEE VENDER."

I caught the papers before they fell. It was more 'captainia bucks' of varying colors. I thought it was cute how the different moneys had portraits of not just Captain, but Engie, Pilot and myself. I was on the '5 Captainia cents' bill. No doubt Pilot's handiwork.

"Alright," I said, "Do I get a grocery list, too?"

"NON!" Captain waved zeer hand dismissively, "JUST GET WHATEVER YOUR HEART DESIRES!"

"Okay..." This was actually beginning to concern me, "You didn't fill the store with traps or anything, did you?"

"NO MORE QUESTIONS!" Zee shoved me in the direction of the store, "TIME IS SLIPPERY AND SLIDING AWAY AS WE SPEAK!"

"I WILL SEE U LATER TONIGHT, MEIN MINKSTRUDEL!" Captain called, walking off.

I raised an eyebrow. Captain sending me to find food? At a specific place? With my gun? And no list of random objects?

Something told me this store would either be really good.... or really, really bad.

___

The road to the store was empty, except for the usual skeletons and cars, and an upturned statue lying half-buried in the snow.

'All the monsters must be on holiday,' I mused.

...I still kept my gun at the ready.

As I walked, I wondered what holiday was closest. Maybe Halloween? No, it can't have been that long. Were we in July? I didn't know any holidays in July... Though my birthday was in June. Could my birthday count as a holiday now that society's collapsed? I bet it could be if I asked Captain.

After all, in 'Captainia', every day was a holiday. For all I knew, it was 'Brush Your Teeth Memorial' day, or 'International Hopping' day, or 'Window Blinds Appreciation' day. Okay, I actually liked that last one.

Captain closed the blinds to our current base and everyone slept in. Afterwards, zee forced the rest of us to go around the nearby buildings and open all the blinds on every floor.

At least it wasn't too different from the usual scavenging. I even found a small stash of food! So overall that holiday ranked pretty high on my list.

A faint ringing noise crept into my hearing. Was this tinnitus catching up with me? I listened carefully. It sounded like it was getting louder...

Wait a minute, that's no tinnitus!

That's a telephone!

I broke into a sprint. The sound was coming from the store!

The vast concrete storefront loomed miles above me. The giant 'G-Super-Deluxe-"All-You-Need-And-More"©' store sign had fallen and blocked the many entrances. Luckily, the 'o' in 'You' lined up just right with one of the doorways.

I crawled through the 'o' and paused. The inside of the building was pitch black.

I shouldered my gun and pulled out my flashlight. It was a cheap kid's toy, operated by a bright yellow hand-crank. It was pretty useful considering there weren't many batteries around, and Captain seemed enthusiastic about the 'COMBINATION RENEWABLE ENERGY AND ARM-DAY EXERCISE' aspects of it... But using it did mean I had to put my gun away.

I spun the crank and swung the light around to make sure I wasn't about to dive headfirst into a deadzone worm hive.

The light bounced off of soaked tile floors and metal shelves. No worms, thank g-d.

I dropped to the floor with a splash. The telephone was louder now. Its rings bounced around the vast store, echoing from everywhere in the dark. I listened carefully...

There. The ringing came from somewhere to my right.

I set off towards it. The flashlight began to die, so I spun the crank, but the sound drowned out the ringing. I had to pause and listen again.

Ah-ha! Found you!

A hole punched in the ceiling from miles above streamed light onto an old-timey phone booth. It must have fallen through after the moon incident.

Within the glass walls, the telephone rang.

I raced to it. Who could be calling? Other survivors? No way it was Captain again. My heart pounded. I snatched the phone from the receiver. I held it up-

"Hello?" I gasped.

"HELLO! EEZ THIS UBERDASH?"

...Of course...

"No, this is Snippy." I didn't feel like playing along.

"OKAY, SNUPERDASH! I HAVE AN ORDER FOR YOU AND I NEED IT DELIVERED QUICKLY!"

"Right," I sighed, "What's the order?"

"GET ME SOME O'DEM JIGGLEY BEARS!" I held the phone away from myself as Captain shouted, "AND PILOT WANTS ZEE WORMS!"

"Yep, got it." I said.

I decided not to bring up that gummy bears and gummy worms were the same thing in different shapes. Engie must have had the same thought, because I heard him faintly say something, followed by Pilot shouting, and then Captain boomed directly into the phone: "YOUR PALETTE SIMPLY LACKS ZEE COLORS TO TASTE ZEE DIFFERENCE!"

"Do you want anything else?" I asked, propping an elbow on the receiver box.

"ENGIE WANTS CHIPS!" Captain said, and that was when I noticed a shiny dark hand-thing climbing up the side of the telephone booth.

Dragged behind it was a massive grinning face. The eyes fixed on me.

"SNIPPY? DID YOU GET ALL ZAT?"

"...Call you back," I whispered.
