"And why here in some no-where town? Why couldn't you guys have been in Ponyville?"
>the colt continues venting out his frustrations at the situation he's been placed in
>Anonymous and Fil are still laughing among themselves. Anon and the filly exchange looks of slight annoyance
"I mean, it's not like this was an ideal situation for us either," Anon says. "It's going to take some getting used to, but give it a chance at least. You're here at all. Isn't that good on its own?"
>evidently not as the colt just keeps rattling off complaints
>Anonstallion facehoofs and decides to just let him get it out of his system in peace and turns his attention to the other two recent arrivals
"How about you guys? Holding up any better?"
>the other colt shrugs
"Compared to him, sure. It's just a lot to take in still, and it looks like you guys are still as much in the dark about this as we are."
"I'm alright," the filly chimes in. "Just wondering when if, you know, I get to be a normal pony here or..." she trails off
>seems each one's worried about a different part of all this
>it reminds him of when he and Anonmare first showed up just outside town and all the confusion they went through during their first days
>he remembers what helped them at least calm down a little and start figuring thing out
"Have you thought of names yet? We can't just keep calling you guys 'Hey you' and you don't even seem to like the name Fil gave you." he says to the still complaining colt
>this snaps him out of his ranting for a moment
"Huh? Oh. Yeah, no, that name sucks. Give it to her." he points to the other colt
"Me? Why would I want it?"
>the two are sent into a flurry arguing and eventually fighting over who gets saddled with the name Cole
>or maybe they just needed an excuse to let out some anger
>the younger, still unnamed filly watches them tussle with Anon bwfore turning up to him
"Actually, I was hoping you and Anonymous could pick a name for me since you're now, uh, my parents."
>Anonstallion looks down at the filly and sees her looking away in embarrassment
"You're really set on this normal pony stuff, huh?"
>she nods
"Alright, we'll think of something then. Just gotta figure out how ponies chosoe names for their kids."
>he pats her on the back as they turn their attention back to the fight. Anonmare and Fil are now betting on a winner
