Passion Note Moves to Ponyville

It was midday in Ponyville when Passion Note arrived at Twilight's castle with a cake that he had baked with Pinkie's help. He knocked on the door and was surprised when it opened.

He walked in and headed directly for the map room. As soon as he reached the doors, he heard something happening inside, so he stopped. He leaned in and started listening. Well as much as he could, because shortly after leaning onto the doors, they opened and he went falling onto the ground. He looked up and saw Twilight and Apple Bloom with a potion bottle.

"Oh Passion, sorry. I heard someone behind the door and I must have used the spell too suddenly."Twilight apologized. He got up, dusted himself and looked at the cake. It had become a mess and his ears drooped in sadness. "Sorry about that too. It looked delicious."She said before walking over.

He perked up a little and looked at Apple Bloom who was still working on her potion. "Huh, I heard about that, but never saw it until now."He said. He thought about it for a second, but it was interrupted by the sounds of Apple Bloom throwing an ingredient into her bottle.

Right after, Apple Bloom picked up the bottle and showed it to him. "What do you think?"She asked. He stared at the bottle, swished it a little and then gave it back to her. The color changed from white to green and she began adding more ingredients.

"I wonder what would happen if I added more instead of less."She said with a slightly interesting smile. She then picked up a feather and began stirring the potion with it. "I know it said to use a pegasus feather, but I chose to use a chicken feather instead."She explained. Passion looked away from her and at Twilight.

"Bad time?"He asked. Twilight shook her head and lead him to a seat so he could watch. "Does this happen regularly or am I just lucky today?"He asked. Twilight rolled her eyes and gave him a potion bottle. He stared at it confused.

"You want to give it a try? You haven't really done it since that you day you visited me for the first time."She said before thinking back on it. It was a simple morning and Twilight was busy reorganizing some catalogs when she heard the front doors of the castle open. "Come on in, I'm in the library."She said before realizing that whoever it was couldn't hear her. So she activated a spell that amplified her voice and repeated it.

For many minutes afterward, she heard random noises. Most of which consisted of crashing into walls and doors opening and closing. That is, until she heard the library doors open and she looked back to see Passion standing there, slightly out of breath and panting. "Have you ever considered a directory or maybe even some guards to help strangers navigate this place?"He asked.

"Funny, you are not the first to ask me that. Nor the twentieth."Twilight replied before getting up. Passion walked over and sat down. He looked around the library and noticed a strange looking mirror before his attention was brought back to Twilight by her clearing her throat. "What did you need Passion?"She asked.

"Oh right, I heard from Starlight that you teach her magic and I was wondering if you would help me with that as well."He explained. She looked at him with a puzzled look before jumping up in excitement. His mouth opened to say something but he was stopped when she began using her magic to pull numerous books out of shelves.

"I have someone else to teach. I mean, teaching Starlight is great. But nothing challenges her anymore and it's been forever since the CMC came for Twilight Time. So this will be just the thing I need."She said as he placed books onto the table, one after another. "What should we start with? Invisibility? No, how about Speed Reading? Even better than that... I could teach you how to insert yourself into a book for even easier studying."She said looking even more excited.

"I was thinking we could start with advanced levitation and then move onto a spell that would allow me to fix things that are broken."Passion said clearly speechless from Twilight's excitement. Twilight looked at the table and then back at him before placing the books back on the shelves with a slightly embarrassed smile.

"Or we could do that. That works too."She said in response. "Although I must warn you, the latter isn't something that can be easily taught. Not many unicorns have a talent for repairing things with magic."She continued. He gave a nod in understanding and she went over to a bookshelf and pulled out a book before placing it on the table. "This contains the spell for advanced levitation. Let's get started."She said.

Passion walked over to the book, looked at it and then lowered his head to begin performing the spell. "What should I try this out on?"He asked. Twilight scanned the room for something before noticing an unused bookshelf that she needed to install. She pointed to it and he aimed. Slowly, the bookshelf began rising off the ground. "Yes."He said quietly. But just as he said that, the bookshelf fell onto the ground.

"Maybe something a little easier?"She asked. He shook his head and began casting the spell again. This time the bookshelf began rising a little faster and he moved it slightly to the left before it fell again. "That was progress, I think. Let's keep at it."She said. Passion tried again, this time making the bookshelf rise higher and he moved it back to its original spot before lowering it.

"Ok, I think that's as good as you are going to get, for now, let's move onto the repair spell. But first, we need something broken that we can use as a test subject."She said before scanning the room again. She noticed a broken picture frame and smiled. He glanced at it, walked over to the book, read the spell and began casting the spell on the picture frame.

"What you want to do is fit the pieces into place and then hold them together for a few seconds and the spell should be complete."She instructed. He gave a nod and began moving the frame's pieces into place before using his magic to hold them together. He did so for about twenty seconds before stopping. He and Twilight walked over to the picture frame and each tapped it once. But as soon as they did, the frame came apart.

"Well, you did warn me that it wasn't the easiest spell to learn. I'll try again."He said before casting the spell once again. This time, he moved the pieces around differently and once he found a shape he liked, he held the pieces together for a good minute and a half before stopping the spell. "Now, did it work this time?"He asked before tapping the frame. But it too came undone and he sighed in slight frustration.

"I am not giving up. One more time."He said before casting the spell again, this time feeling angry. He formed the frame again and held it together for an unbelievable ten minutes before stopping the spell. He walked over to the frame and poked it. At first, it seemed to be sticking, but a few seconds later, it came apart and he sat down in exhaustion.

"Do you want to try a different spell? I have one that is great for documenting swarms of insects."Twilight asked. He shook his head and walked back over to the book and turned the page. He saw a spell that he liked and went into another room. "Hey, where did you go?"She asked once she amplified her voice.

A bright light flashed, and so Twilight covered her eyes with a hoof. When the light vanished, she lowered her hoof to see Passion there, looking slightly dazed. "I tried a teleportation spell and I think I got it."He said before passing out.

Eventually, he woke up to find himself in a bed. He rose and looked around, spotting Twilight watching him. "Good, you are awake and ok. I should have warned you that teleportation isn't exactly a spell for beginners."She said. He laughed and she couldn't help but laugh too. She was brought back to the present by hearing Apple Bloom squeal in delight.

"I did it Twi, I made the potion exactly like you said."She exclaimed. She showed the potion to both Twilight and Passion. "I will never get tired of seeing what I make."She added. Both of them laughed quietly.

"She didn't make it exactly, but it's the thought that counts,"Twilight said whispering. Passion nodded his head and picked up his cake using magic. "Sorry again, but come back with another cake and I'll try it then."She said.

He shook his head in amusement and left the room. "I wonder how Pinkie will take this."He said slightly worried.
