Letter 001: This was not on the list.

[Hello, viewers, please enjoy this image of an enormous green eye. Apparently some creature (reptilian in nature, judging by the snake-like pupil) is leaning super close to Cambot to peer at his lens. Blink, blink. After a second, he leans away and scratches his head, revealing himself to be a small purple dragon, riding on the back of a purple pony. Just another day on the Satellite of Love.] Uh, hey, Twilight?

[The aforementioned pony seems to have her nose buried in a long scroll of parchment.] So after we go pick up the new quills and parchment, we can stop by Sugarcube Corner and see if we can get some pastries for our next party, and then we'll need to go out to Sweet Apple Acres and help Applejack measure the foundation for that new storage cellar she wants to put in.

[The dragon tugs gently on Twilight's mane to get her attention.] Yeah, okay, but Twilight?

Oh, and Cheerilee wanted to talk to us about coming in and demonstrating some magic for her younger students and she has all those books to return so we might as well pick them up while we're over there, and once we get home we need to reorganize at least the Classics section and possibly Modern Spellcasting as well because someone got into them and messed everything up and nothing's where it should be anymore.

[Tugging gently has been upgraded to tugging not so gently.] Kinda need you to see this...

And the globe needs polishing, and the floor needs to be scrubbed again, and I think our clock might be thirty seconds too fast --

TWILIGHT!! [Finally he gives up and snatches the to-do list away from her.]

What is it, Spi-IIIIIIIIIIIIIIhhhhhhhhhhhhk! [Her eyes go almost as wide as her head as her breath is sucked completely out of her body at what she's seeing.]

Yyyyyyeah. [And Spike just deadpans it:] I think we're lost.


((Double intro post! Expect responses from both Spike and Twilight (sailormagic). \o/))

Um...

Yeah.

[DAMMIT LINKARA YOUR KNACK FOR FIRST IMPRESSIONS IS CONTAGIOUS.]

[sailormagic]

[Don't tell her she doesn't have her magic anymore! She'll turn into a ball of DESPAIR.]

But... But... books are good! They're helpful, and they have so much information in them, and they're not something you make fun of!

[punsofiron]

[...oh now she looks really guilty.]

Hey, I'm not saying most books aren't really good. I have a whole collection of my favorites back home.

[sailormagic]

Then why are you saying we're supposed to make fun of them?

[punsofiron]

[Ah geez, HOW I EXPLAIN REAL WORLD?!]

Well, we don't make fun of the good ones...

.....I didn't mean to upset you, that's just how it works up here. It kinda sucks for all of us.

[sailormagic]

So we're up here to be miserable?

[She's more right than she knows.]

1/2

[punsofiron]

Eeeeeeeyup.

2/2

[punsofiron]

...But it's not like we let that happen.

[sailormagic]

It's not? How do you stop that, then?

[punsofiron]

By keeping spirits up and having a sense of humor. You know what they say; laughter is the best medicine.

[sailormagic]

Laughter... I suppose with Pinkie Pie around, there's always a lot of laughter here, isn't there.

[She's heard of worse ideas.]

orz sorry I'm late x.x

[punsofiron]

[See, that's the spirit!] Yup. We all contribute to that a little bit.

No prob XD

[sailormagic]

Well, then that's not so bad. We have practice at that, after all.
