"Hi..uh..I'm Silver," the silver colt said. He blushed, and grinned nervously. "Uh....hi?"
Twilight looked puzzled. "Wait - this isn't real..." she whispered to herself, as she scanned through a book. There was a look of worry in her trembling eyes, as she shifted her eyes from paragaph to paragraph. She then turned back to the strange colt, and remembering to be polite, she smiled, greeting, "Good afternoon, my name is Twilight Sparkle, faithful student of Princess Celestia herself."
"That's...cool, I guess," Silver replied, shying back nervously. "Oh - and I like your mane..."
Twilight giggled nervously, "You're so naive...but I like that about you."
Silver's eyes shot open wide, as memories and flashbacks streamed through his mind. You're so naive...I like that about you The words echoed through his mind, and he fell back, his ears dropped, and back hunched. "Nice knowing ya...uh....Twilight."

Twilight sighed, not knowing what to say. "Celestia will it, no. I won't leave you as long as I live," she muttered, drifting off to sleep by his side. Silver grinned, and fell asleep beside her.
"Ugh..can't do ANYTHING with these hooves..." Knuckles groaned. "Where's my spiky knuckles?"
Derpy was chatting her head off to Tails, and the two of them seemed to already be warming up to each other. "Do you like waffles?" Derpy asked the two-tailed colt. Tails nodded vigorously, as he stroked his mane with a hoof. "Sure, who doesn't? Sonic likes them too! Do you like pancakes?" he asked.
Derpy nodded, licking her lips. "Of course! And I love French Toast, but not as much as a muffin!" she cried out, biting into a delicious crumbly muffin, which had been waiting in her back-pack the whole time - to be eaten. She s
