Testing a rather shaky voice...

[strengthinkindness]

Gosh, Miss Mun...are you sure this is a good idea?

Oh please don't get me wrong. I'm glad to be here. It's just...you didn't seem too happy to have me at first. And I don't want to cause you any trouble...maybe you should pay more attention to some of the others in your..."headspace"?

Well...if you're sure. But maybe you should think about watching the rest of the series first, before doing anything? I mean...if you want to...

And...oh, I hope you don't mind me asking, but...well...why do I need to find Discord?

Well gosh, if it's really that important to you, of course I'll look for him. I just hope I can find him. I hear this place is really big...

I don't know what's best anymore. I just want her to be happy. And I don't want to go back to life without her. It sounds simple, but...

Anyway, thanks for not blowing up on me like AJ did. I thought she was going to kill me, honestly.

[strengthinkindness]

Well...Applejack just wants to protect Pinkie from getting hurt.

I...I hope thinks work out between you and Pinkie. You both deserve to be happy.

[gunslingerguy]

Thanks, Fluttershy. Y' really are an amazing friend. I can see why Pinkie speaks so highly of you.

[strengthinkindness]

[She smiles, but there's still a little sadness in it.]

I'm sorry I can't do more to help...

[gunslingerguy]

...I know. It's alright.

[strengthinkindness]

...Will you...be okay? I-I mean...if things...

[She can't bring herself to say the rest. As if not saying it will keep anything bad from happening.]

[gunslingerguy]

[Jaeris doesn't answer for a moment. Possibly too long of a moment.] I don't know.

[strengthinkindness]

[Her worry is growing.]

Oh...even...even if things don't work out...please take care of yourself.

[gunslingerguy]

Why? Don't have anything left. No way back home, no other friends, no job...

[strengthinkindness]

That's...that's not true! Even if Pinkie gets mad at you for all this, she'd be really sad if something happened to you!

And...and I would too...

[gunslingerguy]

Why would you be sad 'bout me? You barely know me and everything you know is awful and true.

[strengthinkindness]

[She shakes her head a little, trying to find the right words.]

It's not your fault...you couldn't control what happened.

And even if we haven't known each other for very long...we've still met, and I know you're here. And thinking about what would happen if you suddenly weren't...

[She looks away, unable to keep going with that thought.]

[gunslingerguy]

Hey. Nothin's happened yet, okay? Don't worry about it.

[strengthinkindness]

[Well, it's hard not to worry. As much as she hopes everything will work out, she's afraid of what will happen if they don't.

But there's not much she can do now, so she gives him a little nod.]
