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

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

Sandbar: Why are you holding a book in the photo allowing you to take books out?

Gallus: She’s a little thief, clearly

Ocellus: *pouts* Nuh! That’s my book. I took it to the library for cross-referencing.

Smolder: Nerds

Silverstream: Don’t be silly Smoldy. You were next in line. I saw you!

Smolder: *grumbles* Just wanted a book containing maps of nearby gem caves s’all…

Yona: Yona doesn’t have Library card. Should Yona get one?

Ocellus: Oh yes! There’s so much useful information in the library that you could lear-

Yona: But why can’t Yona just ask you. You know it all.

Gallus: *whispering to Sandbar* Check

Ocellus: B-because then you could find what you want.

Yona: But you know it already

Ocellus: W-well….

Sandbar: *hoofbumps Gallus* And mate

Ocellus: Aaaaiee. stopstopstopstop!!!

Smolder: Never!

Gallus: No weak spots my padded paw! You’re ticklish all over.

Ocellus: Sillveerr! Halp!

Silverstream: *munching on popcorn* Sorry ‘Celly. You suggested I was ticklish - which I totally am not. You’ve forsaken me in this conflict!

Ocellus: *whines* Yonaaaaa

Sandbar: Yona can’t help you ‘Cell. It’s her turn in O&O to be the Game Princess. She takes her task very seriously

Yona: Yes! Yona will help once she finishes this amazing secret Yak ambush scenario!

Sandbar: I’ll pretend I didn’t hear that, in that case.

Sandbar: Badly. She deals with it badly.

Gallus: Which is surprising. She spends so long making detailed plans for all our group activities.

Smolder: if only some group members would STICK to the plan she made, she wouldn’t get like this

Ocellus: I’m- *gasp* Fine. It’s all good. Nothing is going to go wrong!

Yona: Yona thinks Changeling about to have fit.

Silverstream: Shhhh shhh. It’s okay ‘Celly. Nothing as bad as last time will happen this time!

Smolder: Hey! I only sneezed once! It was an accident.

Sandbar: Yeah, but you set her cue-cards on fire with that sneeze.

Yona: And Gallus.

Gallus: We weren’t going to mention that bit.

Yona: Changeling wears costume everywhere except to clean.

Ocellus: Well of course! It’s gorgeous! Don’t you agree Gallus?

Gallus: Well it’s alright. It’s an outfit, little more.

Silverstream: Of course it’s more than just an outfit! it’s an physical manifestation of excitement and glee!

Sandbar: Big words Silver, you must really dig this whole cheer squad thing too.

Smolder: It gives her an excuse to be loud. Why wouldn’t she enjoy it?

Gallus: Silverstream, why is there an Ocellus attached to your tail.

Smolder: I was baking and somecreature sneezed into one of the bowls which had some ingredients in it.

Silverstream: Sorry! I did say sorry. *pouts* But some of the sugary mix got on my tail. Then I felt something tugging on it later that day.

Yona: Silver was dragging Changeling around for a while. Didn’t even notice it

Ocellus: *noms*

Gallus: Well Ocellus weighs next to nothing, that’s not hard to believe. And she does have a thing for sugar.

Sandbar: *pales* So can I at least verify the cupcakes you did give us today used FRESH ingredients, not snot-covered stuff, right?

Silverstream: Of course

Sandbar: Thank Celestia…

Smolder: Except yours *smirks*

Sandbar: That was very sappy. I’m so proud of you guys.

Smolder: Bite me, Turtlebutt.

Silverstream: Does this mean we all have a “Thing” now?

Yona: What Silver mean?

SIlverstream: We all have something we didn’t start off with! Smoldy was the last one

Yona: Oooh! Like Yona have trophy?!?

Gallus: I think you’re reading way too much into this. Besides, what does Sandbar have?

Ocellus: Didn’t he have that pet rock? What happened to him?

Sandbar: Oh, he comes and goes as he pleases.

Ocellus: *shudders*

Silverstream: Oooh oooh! I’d be an AMAZING Changeling! I mean, I’m already -technically- a changeling because i can change between Seapony and Hippogriff. Oh my goodness! My name could be SILVERLING!

Gallus: Maybe “Silverfish”, because Your name is Silver, You spent your life as a fish and a Silverfish is a bug

Sandbar: Oooh. Clever! What about the rest of us?

Smolder: We’re not going to do this. Ever.

Yona: Smolder fins look like tail on earwig! Smolder should be called Earwig

Smolder: No. Just… no.

Gallus: The Yakling has spoken. Silence, Earwig.

Ocellus: You all confuse me sometimes…

Sandbar: How do they have so much energy?

Smolder: Yeah. We were awake until 4 in the morning! Yet they’re up and about a mere four hours later.

Silverstream: *yawns* ‘Celly says she only needs short periods of sleep. And Yona is Yona.

Gallus: A riddle wrapped within an enigma… covered in a fluffy blanket.

Sandbar: Ugh… don’t mention blankets. It’s making me want to go back to mine for a few more hours.

Yona: Friends want to join Ocellus and Yona for race??

Ocellus: I think they’re about to fall asleep in a pile of scales, fur and feathers, Yona…
