Perry the Platypus | Phineas and Ferb | Dangan Roleplay CRAU

[doesntdomuch]

[It was warm.

Not a bad warm, but a weird warm that he hasn't felt in over a month.

Perry cracked opened his eyes and immediately winced at the strong sunlight. Okay, so he was apparently outside somewhere, but why-?

It suddenly hit him like a brick what had just happened to him. Right, he had just confessed to a murder and blew up. A part of him wanted to cry over what he did, but this place was so confusing that he can't help but get up and look around. Besides he was in public and would rather not make a scene. He was a grown adult for crying out loud.

He doesn't seem to be too up to chatting, but feel free to talk to this weird platypus anyway.]

[appletastic]

[Well...lucky for him, here comes one of the quieter Ponyville welcome wagons. She's just another friendly horse with a hat, approaching a stranger with a gentle smile.]

Well howdy, don't think I've seen you around these parts before. Welcome to Ponyville.

[doesntdomuch]

[... "Ponyville"? If this is the afterlife, then that is a really weird name for it. Sure he's seen some ponies around, but you'd think he would end up in a platypus-themed afterlife or one for animals in general.

After a pause he decides to write down a question on his notepad (that he always had hush) and hands it to Applejack.]

Is this the afterlife?

[appletastic]

[Well, given the things she's been told about her parents...that hits her a little harder than most ponies.

Now Applejack doesn't use hers much, but she has a quill---for writing on that old scroll. She takes the pen between her teeth, and with an astounding display of dexterity, writes back.]

No afterlife here, no sir! We're alive---at least, I'm pretty darn sure of it. You're just in a new world, thanks to Ms. Calice and her summoning.

[Her hoof twitches a little when she writes that name.]

[doesntdomuch]

[What? This wasn't the afterlife? How could he even end up anywhere both with his entire body intact and alive? Was this somehow Monobear's fault?

... Okay no, it was most likely not Monobear's fault. This just seems random for him.]

How am I here then?

[appletastic]

I'm gonna run out of paper if I'm not careful. Long story.

Anyhow, a long time ago, there were magic mirrors between this Equestria---that's this world---and other worlds. Other Equestrias, and places nothing like here. I'm actually from one of those other Equestrias. Mostly like here, but a bit different.

You came through the mirror, pulled by the mare at the center of all this: Calice. She's got terrifying powers, watches over us all like a hawk. And slowly she's drawing us all in, pulling ponies one by one into the dead world inside her. She wants to absorb everything. All there is to know, all we are---to stamp it out. At least as far as I can figure.

[There's more to this story, more that's shaken her to her core, but maybe she shouldn't tell him quite yet.]

[doesntdomuch]

Well that's very worrying. Unfortunately I'm still not sure how I could possibly be here.

[A pause, finally realizing how confusing he probably sounds.]

Sorry, I should probably explain my situation.

You see I recently died, so it's a little confusing to me that anyone would be able to pull my "soul" into another universe with a new body, no matter how powerful.

[appletastic]

[She dips her head, hat covering her eyes as she writes now.]

I'm awfully sorry about that, mister.

But it doesn't surprise me. Death doesn't seem to stick 'round here lately. Folks have been killed, but they always pop right back fully cured. I'm thinking it's got something to do with her, 'cause it never worked like this in my Equestria.

[doesntdomuch]

Don't worry, I deserved it.

[Ooookay enough talking to a stranger about how he deserved to die. He didn't want to come off as creepy.]

That's strange. This "Calice" must be amazingly powerful if she's able to reverse death like that.

[... A small part of him idly wonders if he could convince her to revive all of the people who died in the Tragic Kingdom.]

[discorderly]

[There's a loud, high-pitched squealing approaching.

Discord continues squeeing as he floats over, picks Perry up, and hugs him to his chest like a plush toy.

At least he's being surprisingly gentle about it?]

[doesntdomuch]

[... What?

Being hugged randomly wasn't entirely unpleasant, since he did need a little comfort, but he had no idea what this thing even was. Perry chitters in confusion at this thing.]

[discorderly]

Platypus!

[Yes that answers nothing. After a little more hugging, Discord lifts Perry so that they're eye-level with each other and whispers:]

Don't tell anyone, but I put the first platypus together out of animal parts and duct tape.

[doesntdomuch]

[Perry lowers his eyelids at Discord. Great, first that Maybeck guy said he was biologically related to humans, a stuffed animal, and a demon and now this thing claims he ducked taped him together. Does anyone in the world even know what a platypus even is?]

[discorderly]

Not you, the FIRST platypus! Unless you're older than you look...

[Discord squints at Perry.]

...Pfeffertonik?

[doesntdomuch]

[Blinks. Was... was that a word?]

[discorderly]

No, see? You're not that platypus!

So which platypus are you...? [Discord presses one of his big floppy goat ears up against Perry's chest.] I don't keep track of you all, you know, I pretty much let them do their thing.

[doesntdomuch]

[Well he's Perry. The one who just got back from blowing up if that rings a bell.]

[kingofthetvworld]

[There's definitely talking going on, and it's happening right behind the weird platypus. Teddie can't contain himself when he sees him from a distance, running up as fast as his paws can take him.]

I knew it! I said to myself "If there's one thing this place needs, it's a weird duck thing!" And it happened, it actually happened!

...You know, I really shouldn't waste such an amazing power like this. [ahem] You know what else this place needs?! A ton of cute girls in swimsuits!

[And he waits.]

[doesntdomuch]

[... Well okay, you do that while Perry just calmly walks away. Sorry Teddie, but he's not really in the mood for conversation unless someone actually wants to talk to him.]

[kingofthetvworld]

Wait, no, come back!

[Of course he wanted to talk to him. Who didn't want to talk about girls in swimsuits? It's like there's something wrong with him.]

I can't get over how cute you are, c'mon!

[doesntdomuch]

[Rude. Just because he doesn't like girls like that doesn't mean he's broken or anything.

But fine, he'll slow down just a little bit so that Teddie can catch up.]

[kingofthetvworld]

[Well, Teddie was never known for his sensitivity.

But he's glad this guy slowed down for him. If he didn't know better, he'd almost think he was avoiding him...]

Hi. [That seems like a good start.] I'm Teddie.

[doesntdomuch]

[Perry waves at Teddie. Sorry, he can't exactly give him his own name right now.]

[kingofthetvworld]

[Ah yes, his name is handwave. How very interesting.]

You know, I don't think I ever saw anyone turn into whatever you are. [Although it looks familiar...] Everyone usually gets all pony-like.

[doesntdomuch]

[Perry raises an eyebrow. Wait so most people here aren't even their original species?]
