Smolder: Only Ponies could have such an ‘thing’ as that…

Sandbar: You saying you don’t want a doughnut Smolllldy *smirks*

Smolder: *Grumbles and takes one*

Yona: Dragon made good choice.

Gallus: Where did you whip these from at such short notice anyway? They actually taste fresh.

Silverstream: There were loads of backup treats at the ball! They would’ve been thrown away if we didn’t nom them. And that’d be sad!

Ocellus: Wait. These are stolen?!? Silver! That’s a horrible thing to do!

Silverstream: Huh? Nonononono. Professor Pinkie Pie was in tears at the thought of them being chucked so she let me take as much as I could carry!

Ocellus: Were they Professor Pinkies to give away?

Silverstream: *Scratches beak* Huh… I never thought to ask that…

Gallus: Contraband doughnuts. These suddenly taste a lot more interesting…

Ocellus: Oh Shush! I can imagine cuteness.

Smolder: No. You can’t.

Yona: *pawing through inbox* Now mentioned, lots of notes about romance. Ponies so focused on it.

Sandbar: Well It did pretty much save Equestria about as many times as the Elements of Harmony have…

Gallus: That’s a point. ‘Cell, how come you changelings got bounced away by a love-barrier when you eat  the stuff?

Ocellus: *frowns* First, I wasn’t there. I was just a littleling. Second, you drink water don’t you?

Gallus: Well duh…

Ocellus: And you can also drown. Same principle.

Smolder: Wow… dark… I’m proud of you ‘Celly.

Silverstream: Don’t worry Gally! I won’t let you drown! I’ll turn you into something with my necklace!

Sandbar: Pleasebeacatfishpleasebeacatfish….

Yona: Yona thought Sandbar was already friend *blinks*

Sandbar: We are! Of course we are friends, Yona!

Yona: *Pouts* Then why Sandbar asking if he wants to be friend. Sounds like Sandbar has bad memory.

Sandbar: It’s part of the curriculum! We need to be able to ask for friendship with everycreature!

Gallus: That sounds a little needy.

Smolder: At least when Sandbar says it like that.

Gallus: I mean, seriously, this is on the syllabus? Give me a challenge!

Ocellus: Well I have a book on the trigonometry of glomps that Professor Pinkie gave me to study. It’s quite advanced! *nods happily*

Silverstream: Yuh-huh! There are some pretty graphs showing stuff like a moving pony under non-uniform acceleration! I can’t wait for it to go into kinematic quantities of a classical part…. *rambles on eagerly*

Gallus: *Blinks*

Smolder: *Turning to Sandbar* So…. want to go over how to ask people to be friends again?

Sandbar: I’m surprised he’s not putting up more of a fight

Ocellus: It’s surprisingly difficult to try not to react to tickling and put up a fight.

Yona: Yona thought only Yona was allowed to touch Griffon’s head.

Smolder: I think you’re the only one allowed to pat him. I can’t see him doing anything to stop Ocellus though. Too fragile.

Silverstream: Didn’t Gabby pat him too?

Gallus: Shhh. I’m pretty sure she always appears when someone speaks her name.

Gabby: Gally!

Gallus: Oh feathers…

Smolder: That wasn’t an invitation to try, Silver…

Silverstream: Who’s trying?? I succeeded! *bounces happily*

Gallus: Okay. Who gave her the last of the ice cream we had-

Silverstream: Gally! Hugs! *glomps*

Gallus: ACK!

Ocellus: *hides behind Smolder* Why don’t you like people touching your tail?

Yona: Yona thinks because it Dragon point of weakness.

Sandbar: I know why *snickers*

Smolder: Don’t you dare tell them.

Sandbar: It’s because she loses almost all balance when you touch it whilst she’s walking *laughs before running away*

Ocellus: Oooooh. Equilibrioception . Interesting.

Smolder: *angry blushing* SANDBAR! GET BACK HERE! I said not to tell them!

Smolder: How did you fall for that?

Sandbar: Fall for what?

Gallus: I’m not complaining. I won!

Yona: Ponies very trusting. Too trusting.

Smolder: Yeah, but there’s trusting…. then there is THIS.

Silverstream: Oooooh Mister Sockins! It’s been ages since I last saw you! You’ve had your hole patched, I see!

Ocellus: He’s also speaking a lot more articulately!

Yona: Yona’s friends know that is puppet, yes?

Smolder: Smolder no longer cares. She’s going back to bed. You creatures are crazy.

Yona: Yona meant when Yona is awake, Yona will study.

Ocellus: You’re awake nooow!

Yona: Yona eyes open. Yona not awake.

Smolder: Chill, ‘Cell. Give her time to inhale her breakfast before you tap into that intricate Yak processing power.

Ocellus: *grumbles*

Gallus: I still don’t know how she can do maths that fast. It’s unnatural.

Sandbar: No more unnatural than you calculating airspeed currents and performing minute angle changes in your wings.

Gallus: Well look who’s been paying attention to Professor Egghead’s lectures!

Silverstream: Well Gally, you could learn something from them too *giggles* I totally won that race

Sandbar: So. Who won?

Silverstream: Huh? What do you mean?

Sandbar: Well… you were racing, weren’t you?

Gallus: Nah. Just flying very fast.

Silverstream: I was flying fast Gally! You were just flapping like a fledgling!

Gallus: Oh those are fighting words! Threetwoone GO! *zips off*

Silverstream: Hey! No fair! *chases*

Yona: Dragon and Changeling not going to race too?

Smolder: I’m too lazy to fly that fast on a Friday for no purpose.

Ocellus: And I can’t fly that fast so there’d not be much competition from me.

Yona: Can’t changeling change into Griffon or Hippogriff then?

Ocellus: That sounds more like cheating. I may as well turn into Professor Dash.

Rainbow Dash: Did someone say my name?

Twilight: *frowns* I don’t want to have to deal with a party-cannon-initiated diplomatic incident. Again.

Pinkie Pie: It was just three itty bitty party cannons

Twilight: Which you fired at the ambassadors face! All at once!

Pinkie Pie: Psshaw. He was fine.

Twilight: A week later!

Gallus: Y’know… Sometimes… just sometimes…. our teachers scare me.

Ocellus: Y-yeah….

Silverstream: What’re you talking about? They’re great!

Smolder: Ponies never do anything half-way. It’s either dull or full blown crazy here.

Yona: Yaks approve of Pink Pony. Yona side with her.

Sandbar: I don’t think this is something we should be picking sides for…

Silverstream: Stop? Never!!!

Ocellus: Aaaie! *squeals*

Smolder: I feel like we missed something.

Sandbar: Yeah, I didn’t know ‘Cell was ticklish on her belly, I thought it was just her elbow and stifle.

Smolder: Aside from that being useful information, I was more thinking of why is Silverstream giving her raspberries.

Yona: Friend Silverstream isn’t giving friend Ocellus food. She tickling her.

Gallus: She means blowing raspberries at her, Yona. Also it’s Silver, I don’t think we need to read into why she does things.

Ocellus: S-somecreature stop h-her! *giggles*

Gallus: Nah.
