>Pink:"So whats wrong? Snow is no reason to be down."

"Ran across a book in Twilights library about Amnesia. Just got me thinking about my self. What was I like? What experiences did I have before I came here? I can make out vague details like the layout of the schools I went to. My home when I was little. Just down and remembered during the gala you like to make others smile so figured what the hay. so here I am"

>Looking back at pinkie her hair slowly deflates till its straight while shes still wearing a small smile.

"Slow day today it looks like"

"Hm? No something I picked up out of her books. I'm still trying to figure out this whole magic thing."

>Rar:"Whats to figure out? you can do magic thats a gift in it self. You not being a unicorn at all"

"I guess. Just i'm able to take magic reside from spells cast and recast them with out even knowing the spell"

>You begin letting the flame grow as you shape it into various things. Rainbow, Triangle, a heart, Apple, Rarity's cutie mark.

>Rar:"My that is impressive. Reshaping magic into art"

>You throw the magic artwork at the wall as it bursts into various colors floating around.

>Rarity and you watch as the colors dance some of them forming the small shapes you formed earlier.

>Rar:"Beautiful"

>rarity gets the tea as you two begin to gossip.

>Talk of spike, What little you can remember of your past and Sweetie belle and the other fillys trying to get their cutie marks.

"No luck today?"

>SB:"No we tried everything today."

"Just be yourself. The cutie mark will come to you"

>SB:"How do you know about cutie marks your not even a pOny?"

"Lived in the canterlot castle for four years when I first arrived. Had plenty of time to read and talk with the Princesses."

>SB:"You lived in the castle?!"

"Yep. Princess Celestia didn't want me frightening her ponies but couldn't bring it in her heart to send me back to where I came from. So she gave me a room in the castle and introduced me to Twilight sparkle. From there I learned a bit of magic and here I am. Living in ponyville."

>SB:"Whats it like where you are from?"

"Boring. From what I remember very boring. not as colorful either."

>SB:"Aw. Least your here now right?"

"Yep!"

>Dont do it.

>Brain?

>Dont. seriously. You know whats in there.

>I have to. you know it.

>Have to do it brain.

>don't.

>Doing it.

>the waitress comes by Rarity orders some weird pasta dish. Sweetie belle some childs dish.

>you give the waitress instructions for a chicken ceasar salad.

>the look she gives you isn't one of anger. or disgust. Its confusion. Rarity and Sweetie belle have the same look.

"Its been four years since I last had meat. I'm an omnivore."

>Waitress:"Interesting idea. Do you mind if we put this on our menu for griffons?"

"go for it. Doubt they will eat it but i'm sure ill come back again"

>With a smile shes off.

>Rar:"Had no idea you ate 'gulp' meat"

"Don't be scared Rarity. You won't smell it with the salad. Plus I need protein badly. I cant eat all the plants you ponies do. I'm not going to eat you"

>Giving a playful wink she blushes

>Small talk happens as you wait for the food

 

>some commotion behind you catches your ear as it gets closer.

>a stallion with a deep voice talks

>??:"Why dont you ditch these two and we can have all sorts of fun."

> Interrupting Rarity before she gets a chance to speak

"No thanks. I dont swing that way."

>turning around to look at the mystery pony.

>Hes brown with a black mane with a red tie not very big and very taken back and confused by this.

>??:"Wasnt talking to you monkey was talking to"

"Well why not? I know i'm good looking. Very smart. I'm also on the good side of Princess Celestia and Luna. also last longer then eight seconds."

>This mystery pony went from a look of rage to terrifying disgust and horror

>The waitress places your orders onto the table. noticing what you ordered he begins backing away slowly

"Now then our food is here and I would love to enjoy it with this wonderful company."

>Waitress:"Well thats one way to tell him off. Enjoy your meal"

>Nodding in approval you begin cutting the strips of chicken up as you mix it into the salad.

>looking up Raritys mouth is still wide open

"Keep your mouth open I bet Sweetie belle can throw croutons in it.

>She shakes her head before speaking

>Rar:"Do you have any idea who you just told off?!"

"Some rich and powerful pony with some sort of pull to others?"

>Rar:"That was filthy rich!"

"Meh."

>You smile back at Rarity.

>More small chitchat before you are all done. Primal need for meat has been filled.

"Come. I'll walk you ladies home then I gotta head back"

>Putting the sleepy filly on the ground she walks inside.

>Rar:"Such a gentlecolt."

"I try"

>giving each other a hug you begin your walk home.

>Walking at a pretty slow pace you hear the sound of hooves hitting the ground

>Twi:"Anon! Where you been all day?"

"Oh hello Twilight. After I saw Pinkie I went to Rarity's. Bought a scarf and chatted with her then took her and Sweetie belle to dinner at that diner."

>Twi:"Oh boy don't tell Spike."

"Do not plan on it."

>Twi:"So I have a question."

"Shoot"

>Twi:"What's it like breaking the Species barrier"

"That's a hell of a question Twilight."

>Twi:"Why i'm asking. Ponies and griffons get together. Even Minotaur's and other races. But you come from a world with one sentient race."

"Ah. The question gets easier to answer. Emotional the barrier is tough to break. Physically Its much harder. I would go into more detail but different worlds different laws and thought processes"

>Twi:"Interesting."

>you notice a small building up ahead with big letters spelling "Brewery"

"Hold up. alcohol."

>Twi:"Really..."

>As you walk in and purchase a bottle of wine and various other bottles of goodness.

>Twi:"Really need all this?"

"No but it gives me something to put on my shelves. Plus who knows when I may want to take a drastic downward spiral."

>continuing your walk back home is fairly quiet.

>there's a feeling of awkwardness in the air.

"Twilight whats wrong?"

>Twi:"Huh nothings wrong."

>A sudden push on your back knocks you face first into the wet ground dropping the bag of bottles.

>What ever knocked you over is standing on your back not very heavy.

>Soft lips leave a kiss on the back of your neck before taking off.

>To stunned to move or even watch what just took off a voice pulls you back.

>Twi:"Anon are you ok?!"

"Yeah." As you sit up adjusting your self

>Checking the bag nothing seems to have broken thank god.

>Twi:"What happened?"

"Something... tackled me... Then took off. wasn't very heavy."

>Twi:"Well I don't see any other ponies around. Sure you didn't trip?"

>Standing up as you dust your self off

>they kissed the back of your neck

>Twi:"Lets get you back home. You don't look so good"

>Following Twilight as you try to recollect what happened.

>The spot on your neck still warm as you reach the treehouselibrary

>Walking directly downstairs you set up your bottles on various shelves before pulling a clean robe out.

>Note to self. Ask rarity for Pjs.

>Heading back upstairs you jump into the shower

>Coming out as you dry your hair. Twilight is at the table with a book looking up at you.

>Twi:"Anon you look awful. Are you sure you are ok?"

>Trying to come up with an answer to deflect the question

"What do you suggest I should work on magic wise? any book choices?"

>Twi:"Hmmm. I'm not sure. I would focus on you right now. But if you want to focus on magic I would say see what you can do. Find a safe limit that does not tire you out. I will find the next book you should read in the morning for now go get some sleep you look terrible."

"Alright. Goodnight Twilight. Spike already asleep?"

>She nods as she holds back a yawn

>Heading down you plow into your mattress on the floor

>hopefully tomorrow will be sunny.

>Conjuring the magic colored flame you watch it as it dances.

>It begins shifting through the various shapes you put it in earlier today

"Interes...."

>Sleep overcomes you the magic flame dancing as it dies out.
