Description:
Let’s see here. One of the most obvious things you think of is all the technological progress humans have made to overcome their environment. These ponies seem to have other ways to do that, with their magic, ability to fly, and who knows what else that you haven’t discovered yet. The thought of what could happen if and when the two worlds make contact comes back with the reminder to somehow get this across to Twilight. Maybe you could surprise them if you brought something. You’re pretty sure you had your phone when they took you into the hospital, perhaps it’s still there? Couldn’t hurt to check and maybe get these bandages off. The sensation of feeling the wind everywhere except your entire left arm is a strange one.
“I knew it, ponies win.” Rainbow Dash says in a victorious manner.
“Sorry, I was spacing out.” Giving it some thought, you throw some ideas out. “The Olympics, where the best of the best compete in all sorts of sports. It’s usually a pretty big event with the whole world watching their representative for their nation.”
“Then how do nations of aliens fit into a single stadium?” She retorts, “Or even get there?”
Remembering how she didn’t understand jets, you pick your terms differently. “We have carriages that can fly and carry hundreds of humans. They can go all over the globe, with the people inside enjoying the ride. Also, we use television.” Both of them look like they don’t understand the word. “It’s another piece of human tech.”
“That’s your answer for everything. If it’s so great, show us some.” You had a feeling she was going to want a demonstration.
“Sorry, but I left my lab coat and clipboard on another planet.” Perhaps if you explain it in detail, she’ll understand. “Look, what you have in magical and physical prowess, we have in creativity and ingenuity. We can look at ourselves and realize ‘hey, humans can’t fly’ so we think of a way to make it possible. For example, humans aren’t really built for going fast, but we’re good at long distance running, so we migrated all over the planet. We have the ability to see our faults and radically compensate for them through miraculous design and technology. It’s what makes us, as a species, essentially boundless, my little Rainbow flyer.”
