A Tad Crazy With A Hint Of Magic

      Well, soon enough, the rest of the eight (excluding Twi, Spike, and me) left so we could read, sleep, and think respectively.

      "So, Twi, besides read what are you able to do here in the 'tree-bary'?"

      "Well," she replied excitedly, "you could study, write, think, and, in Spike's case, sleep. Or . . . experiment."

       Well (pardon my French) shit! Just my luck: I spend the night with a scientist. I can assure you, you'll realize why this is bad in about 3.5 seconds. Or a sentence depending or your speed reading skill. "Umm, I choose eat! Yeah, eat. I'm always hungry!"

      "Oh, come on. You just ate and experimenting is fun. Plus, you can tell me how you have such amazing wings and a magnificent horn." She tries the persuasion route, and I have to admit add lidded eyes and a seductive voice, I might have fallen for it.

      "Yeah, 'fun,' like getting my teeth pulled. And I told you that's classified" I say with a roll of my eyes.

      "Aww, but I let you stay in my home, and eat my food. The least you can do is tell me how you're an alicorn." She's trying guilt now, great.

      "You could've just as easily thrown me out." Now I got her. "How about I tell you a secret if you tell me yours."

      She trying bartering now; this is going to be a piece of pie! "Why, pray tell, would I want to know your secrets?"

      Got her by the (metaphorical) balls now! By now, this had escalated to a battle of wits that of which none could match and had brought the attention of Spike and Owlishious. "If you don't tell me, I will contact the princess and inform her that a colt broke into my home!"

      Now she's threatening me. "And I would care why, exactly?"

      Ohh, going to need ice for that burn! "What do you mean, 'Why exactly'!" Got her.

      "You should be so scared you'd throw a shoe!" By now I'm just enjoying the show, not even caring to keep arguing.

      "I mean, she's the highest power in the Kingdom! How could you not even blink an eye!"

      I'd say that's enough of that.

      "Because, Ms. Sparkle, I have no respect for ol' sun butt." That should quiet her down. "I mean, come on, she lets six barely legal aged mares go and fight the toughest baddies ever while she sits her big fat plot on her golden throne and eats chocolate cake. And she's not the highest power. She shares that throne with Princess Luna equally. Her lessons include saving the kingdom, defeating the enemy, and in the meantime trying not to die!" By now she was stuttering up a storm.

      "B-b-but how could you say that about t-the P-princess that brings The Sun!"

      "Again, I have no respect for her! Over the last thousand years, I think she's had enough time to rule! She has a perfectly great sister that has been away from the throne for that time!" Surprisingly enough, I have been in bigger arguments before.

      "You mean you think Princess Luna should take Celestia's position as high ruler?" Now she realises something. "Yes, and you know, for a student of Celestia for many years, you are really slow: just saying." And this is where I took it to far. "What. Did. You. Say. About. My. INTELLIGENCE?!" Oh, shit.

      "You know, Twi, I really appreciate you feeding me, but I really need to get going, so bye!" This is probably the smartest thing I did all year: Run!

      "Flick, remember: Fluttershy said no running, magic, or flying, so you're stuck with me!" It's official. She's gone completely cray cray!"Think again, my dear Sparkle!" I open my saddle bag and bring out a metal contraption with two wheels, of which I invented, and rolled as fast as I could from Super Sayan Twi.

      "Fliiiick, come back. If you think you're getting away that easily you are sooo wrong!" I hear a magical pop and before my brain processes what was happening she appeared in front of me, destroyed my ride and grabbed me with her TK. Dammit brain! Why you do dis?

      "So, uh, the experimenting sounds fun. Hehe." Look what you got us into, ya jerk!

      "Flick, since you asked so nicely, yes, we can experiment; if you don't run again I will fix your... uh, what is that again?" Oh, glad she's interested in my invention.

    "Oh, this old thing. I really don't have a name for it. I call this'n Ol' Bess. She helps me move fast when my wing is broken. I really haven't ridden her recently due to the fact I haven't had I broken wing in, oh, 360 days. Almost beat my record too. If it weren't for your meddling door!" Now she's going to leave me alone about my alicorn hood.

      "Where'd you get it?" I completely forgot Spike woke up and was now listening to everything.

      "Well, Spike, I didn't get this anywhere; I invented it." Now both Spike's and Twilight's interests was peaked.

      "You're an inventor? Ah yeah! You have no idea how tiring it is to have to explain things without technical terms. And now I have an inventor in my hom e! What have you invented?" Geez, she might be getting to excited; thankfully she set me down again.

      "You haven't heard about any of them." Haha, no way she can counter that!

      "Then, maybe, you can show me some." You know how I mentioned she needed lidded eyes and a seductive voice before? Well, there it is.

      "Ehh, why not?" I grab my saddle bag and pull it over to me. "First is the Infinite Bag. It has a special enchantment that I came up with that allows infinite space, hence its given name. This could transport the entire population of Canterlot and have room to spare." Her eyes widen at the mere absurdity of the idea.

      "Ha, t-that's funny Flick, really you should have a comedian cutie mark. Speaking of, why don't you have any cutie mark?" That's really insulting.

      "No, I shouldn't. I love telling jokes, don't get me wrong, but I wouldn't make it a career. Oh, and classified." That should straighten that out.

      "Wait, you're not laughing. Are you really serious? Does it hold infinite amounts of supplies?" Hook. Line. And sinker. Plus she forgot about the cutie mark deal.

      "Why, yes, it does. This is where I keep all of my inventions. Plus, it serves as my home and workshop."

      "So what next?" She's probably too interested and last time somepony got interested in my inventions bad things happened.

      "Maybe later I'll t ell you, but right now, I am wiped. Crashing takes a lot out of ya'. Trust me."

      "Aww, but if your bag is really infinite what else could you have made?" Not this again!

      "Well I guess that gives you incentive to be nice to me and to take this MIR off." I hope this works. "I will behave, but Dr. Shy said not to take it off." And.... it didn't. "Well, since that's taken care of I'm going to go to hit the hay! Speaking of, is there a place to set down my humble cot so I can sleep?"

      "What do you mean, Flick? You're sleeping in my room." Wait, what?

      "Wait, wait. I just met you; I couldn't-"

      "Flick, you are the dumbest smart pony I've ever met." Oh, she means that-

      "You're offering your own bed for me? No, no, I could never accept that." Would you try to take it, seriously, greedy readers.

      "You wouldn't want me to feel like a bad host, would you?" There are those seductive eyes again, plus a whimper that I think would give Rarity a run for her money.

      "You wouldn't want me to feel like a bad guest, would you?" I call your whimper and raise you a teary eye.

      "You're sleeping in my BED!" Not this again... again.

      "Okay, deal, but one thing before I crash look in M section of my saddle bags. Password is Waterloo. You might be surprised at wha t you find. Night Twi." I then climb up the stairs slowly, just starting to feel sore from the crash as she mutters a faint "Night."

               Twi's POV

    "Okay, M section. Hmmmm, mmmm, mmmmm," I hum. "Aha!" I put in the password as I say, "Where did he come up with such a weird word, I wonder? Okay, Waterloo. No way, you're kidding. A Royal Manehattan mattress! How did he- no, don't question a blessing. Even though it's better than Princess Celestia's bed! How does he have one if these?!" Color me surprised, Flick. I can see him being a wonderful addition to our circle. "Thanks. Seriously, thanks."
