More Info On Upcoming Episode

[shine_on_armor]

Wow! That sure tells a lot, huh?

I mean, nothing about my character, but still. It's good to know more about Cadence, isn't it? And, of course, it stands to reason that I'm Captain of the guard.

I can't believe our wedding is going to be in a human newspaper.

[insidethechimney]

How excited are you for the big day? Shaking in your winter bootsies excited or leaping over the moon excited?

[shine_on_armor]

Leaping over the moon while my bootsies shake off my feet and rocket themselves into deep space!

[insidethechimney]

Wow, that's super duper luper excited! Make sure your bootsies don't bop any aliens on the head when they zoom off, though, or Equestria might have to handle a full on alien invasion!

[shine_on_armor]

Don't worry, Pinkie. I'm keeping my hoofs on the ground for now.

[insidethechimney]

Good for you! I can't make the same promise. I've been watching over Spike to make sure he doesn't gobble the ring and it's requiring some rooftop, treetop and traintop espionage.

[shine_on_armor]

The rings are just gold; no gems. I don't think little Spike will be munching on them.

[magicalrealist]

I think the most surprising part of it all is you can apparently speak Spanish. You were always a royal guard type, but when did you pick up another language?

(Yeah, she can totally tease you too, big bro.)

[shine_on_armor]

Technically, it's not Spanish. It's her name.

And speaking more than one language comes in handy when you're a royal guard. I also speak Fancy and, when I need to talk to nerds, Twilightese.

[magicalrealist]

And just how far have you come along in your "Twilightese?" I'll assign you homework if it's not satisfactory.

[shine_on_armor]

I'm talking to you, aren't I? I never would have been able to if I didn't pick up your language.

[magicalrealist]

So you have a foundation; that's good...but I think you can do better than that.

[shine_on_armor]

Well, I'm just not as smart as my little sister.

[magicalrealist]

Maybe not, but you have your perks.

Besides, you have more important things to worry about than trying to make sense of my head; your wedding's in the New York Times. Mun assures me that it's a very prestigious paper.

[shine_on_armor]

I know! And you and all your friends are mentioned in the article!

As well as the face that Princess Cadence used to foal-sit you. Maybe at the wedding we should show pictures from back then.

[magicalrealist]

You'd dedicate time away from your wedding just to focus on me? I'm touched.

[shine_on_armor]

Hey, I already made you best mare. Embarrassing you in front of everypony is the least I can do!

[magicalrealist]

Just promise me those pictures won't end up in the New York Times. It's one thing for all of Equestria to laugh at me, but I'd really prefer humans not knowing about that.

[shine_on_armor]

No promises~

[magicalrealist]

Well, it's not like I'm not used to locking myself in at home for extended periods.

(Said in what's probably her most playful tone.)

[shine_on_armor]

... You don't do that anymore, right? I mean, you've got friends now.

[magicalrealist]

The library won't sort itself, you know...

(She giggles.)

I don't do it as much anymore; I'm spending most of my time with my friends, so you don't have to worry about that.

[shine_on_armor]

Oh, I'm not worried. If you keep yourself locked up, that means you aren't seeing any boys.

[magicalrealist]

I'm...not really looking out for boys right now; I still have to get through learning the magic of friendship. Love is a league entirely on its own...

[shine_on_armor]

Good. You can start dating when you're as old as Princess Celestia.

[magicalrealist]

I'm pretty sure I won't live to be a thousand years old.

[shine_on_armor]

Well, then it looks like you won't ever have a boyfriend. Too bad, I was looking forward to silently judging them.

[magicalrealist]

It's not as if you can't do that to the stallions I normally talk to.

[shine_on_armor]

I do it to more than just the ones who talk to you.

[He suddenly looks kind of angry.]

[magicalrealist]

And who else do you silently judge? Not my friends, I hope.

[shine_on_armor]

No, just... Some of the guards at the castle.

[magicalrealist]

What do they do to deserve that? They're dedicated, but they're still nice...aren't they?

[shine_on_armor]

Most of them, sure, but...

Uh... I don't know if I should be talking about this. It involves you. Did you know they made recruitment posters with you and your friends on them?

[magicalrealist]

I've heard about them. Honestly, I have no idea why we'd be on the posters if they want to recruit more palace guards...

[shine_on_armor]

[He just scowls.]

Maybe because they're looking to recruit pervs.

[magicalrealist]

(Facehoof. Just...facehoof.)

And now I'm feeling very uncomfortable...

[shine_on_armor]

I told you I didn't want to talk about it.

Let's change the subject. Do you have best-mare speech ready?

[magicalrealist]

Of course I do!

(She that novel-sized stack of papers she's floating on over? Yeah, that's it.)

[shine_on_armor]

Uh... You don't think it's a bit... lengthy?

[magicalrealist]

Honestly, I don't think it's long enough! Besides, since she was apparently my foal sitter, there's a lot I have to say.

[no_vampires_plz]

"Mi Amore Cadenza" is Italian, not Spanish.

Which makes me wonder if Princess Cadence has ties to the Pony Mafia.

[shine_on_armor]

Are you saying your old foal-sitter, and my future wife, is a criminal?

[no_vampires_plz]

I said nothing of the kind!

Now, her parents, on the other hand...

[shine_on_armor]

Twilight. Stop it.

[magicalrealist]

Hmm...I'll go ahead and talk to my mun about languages, then.

Not the most entertaining of thoughts, considering that'd make us close to the Mafia, but that's assuming she actually has ties to them. That's still too flimsy of an argument to work with, though.
