1st book: The Famillarization of the Unfamiliar and the Formerly Familiar

Action A: 1247 Williams Road; locked to housemates

(For those who've been in this particular home for a while, you may have noticed a lavender unicorn droned into acting like a cat. Not only is she now fully conscious and aware of her actions, but she's now walking through the house as though she's seen it all before. She has memories of her previous adventures in Mayfield, but they're fuzzy at the moment. It might take her a moment to remember you, but it could happen! Maybe.)

Action B: Around or inside the library

(Part of her Mayfield memories have started returning and while she remembers the collection at the library being...less than preferable, it's where she's most likely to figure things out. Anyone who wants to help jog her memory or say hi is welcome to do so~)

[Emmett pinches himself just to make sure. She's still there talking to him] My god. Do you know what this means? It means that William James theory on the multiverse was completely factual.

[Emmett looks at Twilight with interest with both her and her statement]

Schrodinger's cat? [Sorry Twilight Emmett has another four years till that happens]

And factual it still is. Every non-drone in Mayfield comes from a universe different from the others while Mayfield itself apparently serves as a separate, purgatorial nexus to house them in. For example, I'm pretty sure your world doesn't have talking ponies such as myself, does it?

(Then here's some help catching up!)

It was a thought experiment that dealt with quantum mechanics and a subject's state of being before observation. In this case, Dr. Erwin Schrodinger placed his cat in a box alongside a contraption that would kill the cat, but with no definite schedule for the device to go off. Until actual observation was done, the cat very well could have been alive, dead, or simultaneously alive and dead. It's a bit too cruel an experiment for my preferences, but it's still fascinating.

[As Twilight speaks Emmett was thinking. You could see his gears going. Apparently, what Twilight was saying just dawned on Emmett himself.] Great scott. That explains everything about this place. I've been approaching the solution to this problem from the wrong angle. Don't you love it when everything just falls into place?

Huh? Sorry, did you say something?

[Emmett's eyes light up at Dr. Erwin Schrodinger. So, it was the Schrodinger he knew]

Quite fasinating.

I do, actually! It's part of the joy of solving mysteries: gathering all of the pieces and then finding that last one that brings them all together!

(Twilight's been there before; a thought will pop into her head and it'll take precedence.)

And it provides ideas for other interpretations of Mayfield and its state of being. Out of curiosity, what was your approach to this problem? I'd love to hear your theory.

Well, at first I thought prehaps the residents here where simply displaced in time. Considering, everyone I spoke too their year they claimed to be from didn't match up with the local newspaper. Which may sound utterly preposterous, to believe claims but knowing that I'm from 1931 I figured why not? Though, I thought we had all been localized on my Earth that was until further clues from the library here among other things didn't make any rational scientific sense.

However, you where the final piece that brought all of this together.

I'm glad I could help!

I'm sure this place has many more riddles that need to be cracked, so I'm sure we'll be able to keep our minds busy with them!

Indeed, the tainted milk, vanishing factory and the library. This place is keeping me so busy with riddles I'm getting completely distracted on which one to unravel first.

Emmett Brown, Miss -?

Twilight Sparkle. It's nice to meet you.

Mayfield sure has a lot to it, but at least we're presented with options. And if we're lucky, working on multiple riddles at once can help them all get closer to being solved.

Miss Sparkle, it's a pleasure to meet another fine mind here.

Luck has nothing to do with it. Did Thomas Edison rely on luck for inventing the light bulb? Just hours and hours of trial and error and research.

But you're right, why shouldn't all of these add up in the end? Considering that they all should logically becoming from a single from source within the city. [Magic or not]

[Pause] I'd love to continue our disccusion but I'm not so sure that's a good idea safe out in the open and prying ears of the drones.

That's how I think of it; that single source is likely what'll help explain all of them.

The drones? Well...I won't rule out that possibility. Where would you like to continue our discussion?

Mother, [not in a hateful way more like she's not really his mother]
wants me to keep on guard, she's only telling me what's best for me and talking about this sort of thing in such a public manner may be too revealing.
[Though he was having mixed feelings, after all everyone has good in them, right?] [Pause, and lowers to a whisper]
Besides, since mother said was true on how the books change depending on our age trying to keep us inside the box... [Emmett expresses a bit of terrified look, just with the words 'inside the box' he couldn't help wonder if there where consequences for researching or nosey too obvoiusly. Then pauses to consider where]

...The lab would be the best, we still have a drone of a father.

You have a point there. Anywhere without drones would probably be the safest bet.

Alright, the lab it is!

You know what's horribly ironic, when I first arrived here I thought I was getting away from my father... Now, I'm starting to maybe think this place is my father in some ways.

[By which Emmett meant Judge Brown and Judge Brown's dislike of out of box thinking]

Perhaps Mayfield is doing that on purpose? With everything it's capable of, I wouldn't be surprised if it wants you to feel that way.

But as we said, this isn't the place to speak of such things. Shall we head off, then?

^{(Here you go ~)}

[Emmett nods] Follow me. [Completey being a scatter brain and having forgot to put a few books back on the shelf]

(She'll just go ahead and try to put a few of those back before following him out. Gotta have some order in this place!)
