Sandbar: So…. What flavour?

Smolder: *snickers*

Sandbar: What?

Gallus: He’s been caught in the Ice-cream net.

Ocellus: *giggles* Yep!

Yona: Sandbar thinks too late for ice-cream - and now wants one.

Sandbar: I was just asking the flavour!?!

Silverstream: It’s caramel! And you can have some *licks the spoon as she hugs a tub of ice-cream*

Sandbar: Hmph… Thank you…

Smolder: Not even an awful report card, you’re just going for a disappointing one.

Silverstream: It’s ‘Celly. I don’t want to scare her too much! Besides, shoo! Our outfits are meant to be secret!

Smolder: Yeah yeah, I already know what I’m going as. Sandbar is going to regret dressing up as a Dragon that one time…

Yona: Friends talking about Nightmare day?

Ocellus: Night. Yona, Nightmare Night.

Gallus: I don’t know Nightmare Day sometimes seems accurate. I know I have nightmares every time Starlight lets Trixie out without a leash on the school grounds.

Yona: Yona still has flash bees burn from last time*grumbles*

Sandbar: At least we learn that your new fear of Bees up there with your fear of heights.

Yona: Yona not afraid of heights. Yona just doesn’t like when High becomes low quickly…

Ocellus: If you don’t stop pinching me, I’ll pinch you back.

Gallus: Jokes on you, I have claws, you have hooves.

Ocellus: No, the joke’s on you. I can change into all manner of creatures with talons to pinch you with.

Gallus: Ah…. mistakes have been made

Sandbar: Seriously? Did you just forget she can transform?

Silverstream: Well to be honest, she doesn’t do it all that often. I can’t even remember the last time she did!

Yona: Wait. Didn’t changeling turn into Griffon during history of friendship when he asked really silly question?

Smolder: No. That was Gallus asking a stupid question.

Yona: Griffon very sparkly

Sandbar: He is, but why is your tail wrapped in tape?

Gallus: Beats me. It’s silver though, so it’s cool!

Silverstream: Does this mean I’m cool??

Ocellus: The Crystal Empire is surrounded by snow. Everything is cool here

Smolder: The correct answer is: Yes, Silver. You’re cool too.

Silverstream: Hurray!

Ocellus: *grumbles* I was trying to be funny.

Smolder: The fact you had to try so hard is funny enough.

Ocellus: *pouts*

Gallus: Do you think we could take the jewels the Crystal Heart’s aura makes and sell it?

Sandbar: You mean in Ponyville?

Gallus: No, Yakyakistan *rolls eyes* Of course Ponyville. There must be a market for this sorta stuff.

Yona: Why not Yakyakistan? Yaks like gems too. Just not as much as ponies.

Smolder: Aren’t there hundreds of tunnels near or around Ponyville with gems of every kind inside?

Gallus: Yeah but… who actually goes to them?

Ocellus: I guess you could sell them. But the profit margin would be very bad and you’d have to sell them very expensively if you want to make this a business.

Silverstream: How come? I want to sell some bling too!

Ocellus: Well you’d have to make the return journey to the Crystal Empire just to get new stock. And that’s before we even know if this stuff is permanent.

Gallus: Bah

Smolder: You look like a girl.

Sandbar: Well so do you! *pokes tongue out*

Smolder: … I am a girl

Sandbar: Wait… really?

Smolder: I know you’re trying to be funny - but remember: you’re looking very crystally right now. And I haven’t eaten anything today…. yet.

Gallus: And that, Professor, is why Sandbar is now a pile of ash.

Ocellus: Getting your alibi in order already?

Gallus: Doesn’t hurt. Gotta have a backup plan, y’know?

Yona: But Smolder right. Pony mane does look like girl mane.

Silverstream: Well Sandbar always did spend a lot of time making his mane just right every morning.

Ocellus: I mean, really! It’s really bad. I don’t even have holes in my legs!

Sandbar: Well yeah, I know that, I had to get the changeling vibe somehow. 

Yona: Sandbar didn’t really try hard, did he?

Sandbar: Hey! That’s not fair. I even have her carapace segments!

Gallus: Drawn badly in ink.

Silverstream: Well I like it Sandbar! You’re even pinning your ears back to look like Celly’s!

Smolder: Told ya the ear thing would pay off!

Sandbar: It did, but focusing on holding them down is surprisingly harder than it looks.

Ocellus: *grumbles* I don’t know if I should feel insulted that you think my elytra are box shaped too *pouts*

——-

The Students will be back on 21st October after their field trip! There may be an update next week though if you do your homework <3

Ocellus: So that explains why you weren’t out after school with the rest of us.

Smolder: *grumbles* How was I supposed to know that stupid gem was Spike’s?

Yona: If Smolder found gem, why Smolder not hand in to lost and found?

Smolder: Because this is Equestria! You can find Gems on the ground like you find grass on a field. I just thought it was there!

Ocellus: I guess anyone could make that sort of mistake…

Gallus: Good job showing restraint though.

Smolder: Bite me, Pigeon.

Silverstream: Hey! That’s Cat-Pigeon to you!

Gallus: Please don’t interject on my behalf. It never goes well.

Sandbar: Look on the bright side. Your feathers are still room temperature! I’d beat a hasty retreat though, G.

Gallus: Why do we even follow that many people?

Silverstream: Why not? Everyone who follows us deserves to be followed in kind!

Yona: But if we follow followers, we just walk in circles.

Smolder: Like proud multicoloured sheep.

Sandbar: Oooh, speaking of multicoloured sheep, are you looking forward to our field trip next week to the Crystal Empire?

Ocellus: Oh! I know I definitely am! it’s going to be so exciting to see the crystal heart! I’ve read so much about it

Gallus: You’re just in it for the love aura it emits.

Ocellus: Don’t judge me!

Yona: So what if food looksh shtrange! Food tastesh great! *munches*

Gallus: Swallow, I beg of you, before speaking

Yona: *blushes* Sorry!

Silverstream: I think it’s nice!

Sandbar: Spraying your food?

Silverstream: No, silly. That they put effort into each of our meals! it’s like they really care about us!

Smolder: But how do they find the time to do all of this? I can understand doing one or two, but for every student?

Ocellus: Don’t be such a wet blanket! If I’ve learnt anything from coming here, it’s that anything is possible!

Gallus: No matter how unrealistic
