[Unfinished] Happy Birthday Reel! [Filler Side-Story]

Reel Action looked at the clock. She passed a cup of black coffee to a tired looking Human. The coffeehouse she worked at was called the Black Brew. It was a rather well known Equestriani coffeehouse where a lot of writers and other creative types like to congregate. Just then, the clock chimed, indicating her shift was over. She clocked out and got her belongings. Trotbeck was a small town and she found the pace to be much slower than her days as a movie star. Turning down a road, she found herself at her home. There standing in front of the doorway was two familiar faces from her movie star days: Funny Bones and his wife, Marion Henriksen.

Upon seeing Reel Action, the blue colored stallion trotted towards her and greeted her with a smile, "Hey, Reel. It's been awhile, hadn't it?"

Reel Action looked over the two. "Hello," she said. Her horn glowed as she unlocked the door. "Come on in." She then added, "Sorry for not attending the wedding..."

"Don't worry, I understand." Funny Bone said entering the home of the former starlet, followed by his wife. "Oh..." he started only to conjure up a bouquet of flowers into existence. "HAPPY BIRTHDAY!"

Action looked at the bouquet floating in Bones' telekinetic aura. She was so stunned that her own voice failed her.

"Come on, did you really think we forgot your birthday?"

Action Reel shook her head, "No, It simply slipped my mind with everything that has happened these past months." She grabbed the bouquet with her own magic. "Thank you."

"No problem. Well today we will treating you for lunch and dinner. Isn't that right, darling?" He turned his attention to the only human in the room. Marion nodded, her intimidating and stoic appearance replaced by a more friendly one. "So is there any place you would like to go? It is your birthday after all."

Action Reel's stomach growled loudly reminding her that she hadn't eaten yet. "Sure. There is Noodles and Company that opened a few days ago a couple of blocks from here." She looked at her uniform. "Wait here while I go and change.."

                                                                                                                      ..............

Noodles and Company was a fairly crowded casual dining place. There were numerous Humans, Equestriani and other species ordering food, eating or otherwise chatting. Action Reel looked at the menu. Noodle based dishes from all around the world greeted her.

"Marion, you been to one of these before. What do you recommend?" Action asked.

Marion Henriksen turned to her. "I suggest you get the Thai coconut curry. Don't worry, it's got no meat. Though if ya want, ya can order some." Action Reel made a face at the idea of eating meat. True, there were some "humanized" Equestriani who did eat meat, but they weren't that common.

Funny Bones looked at the menu, "Well, I'll be getting Bangkok Curry. You want a Spinach & Fresh Fruit Salad, right?" Marion nods then his attention turns towards Reel. "What about you?"

"I'll try the Thai coconut curry." Action answered without hesitation.

"Got it."

Funny Bones stood in line, ordering their meals once he was at the corner. He paid and levitated the metal "tent" with their order number engraved on it and the cups to a table in the back. He put the placeholder on the side of the table while Reel and his wife get their drinks.

"So, Reel," Funny Bones said once they returned. "Thanks for not booting us out. Okay I knew that you were not going to that but still.."

Reel sighed as she swirled her cup of water with her telekinesis. "Sorry for giving you that impression." She looked up at Marion and smiled. "How's the noble life?"

Marion deadpanned sarcastically, "Riveting so far...."
