Garry and Twilight both sat opposite of each other. Twilight was levitating some books and looking over her "research" on humans. She shuffled some quills and a parchment over with a couple of check boxes with some alien writing unknown to Garry. When she got everything ready for Garry, she started to ask the questions.
"So Garry how wa-" Twilight began.
"It was fine working with Applejack; no I didn't gain any muscle mass; yes the walk was short, the same distance as yesterday and the day before that; no I still cant use any magic; no I still can't fly in anyway shape or form; no I didn't get taller; and yes I still think this is physically impossible to be here with you and your friends. Did I answer all of your questions Ms. Sparkle?" Garry winked at Twilight.
"H-hey! you don't know what I'm going to ask you! That's cheating!" Twilight pouted in protested.
Garry just gave her a smirk, "Well were you going to ask me something different?" Twilight gave him a disbelieved look, trying hard to thinking something, anything to counteract his argument. When she could not think of a single one, she just growled a bit under her breath. Garry knew he was right. She made a series of checks on a scroll.
"Okay then," Twilight continued, "On a scale between one and ten, how do you feel about the weather?"
Garry tap his chin, think about this question. Is this a trick question? "Um, I say... an average five?"
Twilight once again she wrote something down on her clipboard. He look up again at Garry. "So have you made any friends while your stay here?"
"Friends?" He ask. He tap his chin again looking at the ceiling. Do I have any friends here? Garry thought. Truth be told his five months here, he really didn't socialize with the other ponies. He tried once, but the result was just them fleeing or just gawking about. The only friend he could think of was Applejack. But he wouldn't just go out and have a beer with her just yet. He still didn't really got used of the idea of multi colored sentient ponies.
"No, not really." Garry finally look back at Twilight.
"Well that's everything I guess," she said with a disappointing tone. Garry knew that she was upset about how well her research is doing. He wanted to ask, but didn't know if it would ruin the results she was oh so desperately aiming for. However, this didn't matter for Garry. Ever since he came to this wonderful, but odd place, he started to become a bit more warm hearted in his ways.
"Twilight, I'm sorry its been a long day for me," Garry said while getting up from his coach to a more of a proper sitting position to be face her.
"Right I forgot about how you say on earth the rotation of your planet is more faster then our own," Twilight said in a matter of fact tone she got up and started to pace around the room continuing her statement, "Ive figured that the ratio between Equestrian hours to Earthain hours must be three to one."
"THREE TO ONE?!?" Garry shouted surprisingly as he fell back onto the couch. Twilight jump a bit from the random outburst she just witness.
Good bye normal sleep cycles, hello insomnia. He thought sarcastically.
"Is this another way of humans expressing stress?" Twilight said excitingly as she rushed over toward Garry, quill and parchment ready to gather more important detail. Garry decided to give some new data for Twilight. He heard how excited she gotten when he realized that he will most likely never get his normal sleep cycles back. But that didn't matter to Garry, how often does a human get to be a part of history in the making. That is, if the higher uppers of Canterlot decide to take this research seriously from what he could gather from Twilight about the matter..
Garry responded with a groan, along with a comical thumbs up for Twilight. At this point Garry heard something for the first time in a long time, Twilight's laughter. He lifted his hands from his face, peeking under its shadow. He could see that Twilight is indeed laughing, but not just in rude way, but in a friendly way. Something happen inside Garry when he saw the unicorn like this, it felt warm and fuzzy in his stomach. Could he have some romantic feeling for Twilight? No! He immediately dismiss the thought. But the feeling persisted in his gut just seeing Twilight laugh like that.
Nope. Stomach, stop it. Stop it! He thought. Grabbing his shirt.
But alas, the feelings did not disobeyed Garry's command. Instead Garry just stop and enjoyed the view, giving the great debate in his head in his a short recess. Twilight stop her laughing and caught Garry looking at her in a way that she didn't even know the look.
"Ahh Garry you ok?"
"Oh what, y-yeah sorry about that Twilight," Garry reassuring her. "Hey where is dragon fellow, friend, assistant, boy, drake..." Garry comically named off all the adjectives for Twilights assistant
"Spike?" Twilight said flatly. Obviously not amused with Garrys strange antics.
"Lizard, son, turtle, guy..okay okay! Spike, where is he?" Garry jumped to a defensive tone. He was being under the threat of two lavender dagger eyes, glaring his path.
"He's helping Rarity with a 'project,' of what that means, I don't have a clue." She transferred her glare into a simple nod.
"Alrighty then," Garry yawned stretching his arms,"Good to know that Spike is not gonna try to poke at me in the night."
Twilight giggled again, "Oh is he still doing that, im sorry he is very curious about you. You really shouldn't blame him"
"Yeah, you should really put a lid on it, i might actually smack him and might cause him to burn this entire place down. "
Twilight just rolled her eyes, "well than if that's everything then I'll let you get some sleep tonight," Twilight said. She started to organize her quill and parchment into a book that had a symbol what look like a human. Garry sat up a bit and look over to Twilight. He could see the pony making more notes with the scratching of her quill. Her body was smaller then his only about three feet tall maybe, but it amazes Garry that they look so soft like a rabbit. But Garry got this feeling again in his gut. He could suddenly feel he became a little warmer under his shirt. That's when he saw her rump. Her very sexy rump. Oh how lovely it look to Garry. Not seen much of any human around ladies, his mind started to wonder on the most odd of ways. Thinking of these mares in such a manner. But his train of thought about the subject of rumps didn't last long, for his rational side of his brain rejected any further thought of even such a thing.
Regardless of what he thought, it was hot and he needed to take off his shirt. He tuck away his work shirt into his backpack under the coach. He laid his head down a began to drift to sleep.His back exposed slightly. The unicorn was about to go to bed when, again she got another golden opportunity to get some valuable research for humans. She saw something odd on Garry's back as he was trying to get situated in his sleeping quarters. To her it look like a cutie mark, but to Garry it was something much, much more. Twilight could help herself so she investigated this strange cutie mark for a human. She sneak down the stairs and approach Garry. Twilight could hear that he was already fast asleep. Garry masked her approaching hoof steps with his loud bear like snoring.
"Pegasi wings cutie mark? But humans can't fly, nor it is not on his flank," Twilight observed quietly at Garry's back, "And I didn't know humans snore like hibernating bears, hmmmm" This spike her curiosity to the fullest. Unfortunately it will have to wait for tomorrow it was getting late for Twilight. She noticed that Garry was just sleeping without a blanket. So she went upstairs to her room and brought down a spare winter blanket that her parents given her last year. She used her magic to put it over Garry's body and tucked him in like she does to Spike when he passes out from a hard days work. She smiled a bit from the thought of Spike. She quietly went upstairs to her room and fell asleep.
