At the Café Hay...
"And that's how why I and my two sibling move in Ponyville! And become resident as well!' Leo smile, telling the story about the time he and his sister and little brother came to this town country to hiss new friend.
"Hm. Interesting, your sister is the faithful student of Princess Celestia and your brother is a baby dragon. Very intriguing, my friend." Said Soothing Wave, as he took a bite of the sandwich that has hay in it. "Plus, is quite rare to see such different species becoming a family."
Today the golden lion hang out with the earth pony because he didn't have time for it, take a place at the cafe since is great for a conversation. Sitting on a seat with a table, there start by telling each other first. Leo was a 14-year-old while Wave was a 20-year-old, which mean he's an adult age. After that, they talk about why they move to this town. Honestly, the duo just started from Leo telling his story, now is time for the blue pony turned.
"So how about you, Wave?" He said, drinking a glass of milk, though leaving a trace of milk on his whisker. "What's your story?"
Wave slightly snickering from it. "Well, my friend. I live with my sister. Twin."
"Really?! Which one? What's it the spa ponies?"
This makes the ponies took by surprise from this. "Why yes actually, how did you know?"
"I meet them when I helping my friend's Rarity this morning, she says she having a spa day with Fluttershy, of course, my friend too." The cub replied. "And also, the only twin I know in Ponyville so far.
"You good memories in there, Leo." Wave comments. "Well, that's true, I'm the big brother of them. The name is Aloe and Lotus, same face, the mane, tail and coat as well except it switches."
"Oh, yeah. Is hard to find which one is Aloe, and which one is Lotus. Rarity only told me the name but not the who is it." Leo scratches his head confused.
"Lotus has a pale rose coat and light cerulean mane, while Alone is the opposite." He explained, then took a sip from a tea.
"Pawesome! Thank you for that." The lion smiled as he took the last milk inside the glass, before looking at Wave. "You remains me of my big brother cause you know, your big brother of Lotus and Aloe."
This raised the question. "Hm? You have another brother?"
"Yup! His name is Shining Armor and he is the captain of the royal guard in Canterlot!"
"Royal guard captain, eh? Judging by the title of it, your big brother is a pony then." Wave said, doesn't much shock of the outcome.
"That's right, and there's more. He's now dating one of the princesses!" He giggled. "With my help though."
"Woah, you get an awesome sibling, Leo." The blue pony smiled at the lion.
"Yeah, I wonder what he's doing right. Besides dating, he got a more important job as the captain..."
"Whatever it is, I'm sure he did fine." Wave complement, which makes Leo smile. Before both of them looking at the blue skies while he drinking some tea while doing that, he didn't not expecting this.
"Hey, Wave?"
"Hm?" Only said, still sipping.
"Did you read a magazine?"
"Hm? Why this sudden?" The pony asked.
"Well, last week my brother showing me some kind of magazines after I help his dating operation, and he promises me he will show it." The lion answer.
"And how is exactly you know he has a magazine, my friend?"
"I... Kinda went to his room for a cleanup." He replied.
"Ooh, so what are a picture in the magazine looks like? I did read it in my free time." Wave said, took another sip once again.
"Is a picture of a mare, wearing some sore like a swimsuit or-"
SPLURT!!!
And that word, makes Soothing Wave spit out all of the tea inside of his mouth with now fully wide eyes.
Meanwhile, At The Golden Oak Library...
"Sup Bro,” Spike yelled.
“Big brother what brings you here!?” Twilight perked up as Spike let his older brother into the library.
Once done, he went to the kitchen with a tray, carrying some plate and cup on it. His claw grip on the edge of the tray to wash it from the sink. While doing that, the white unicorn sits on the couch.
"I had a bit of free time. I figured I would come down and see how you've settled in.” Shining Armor smirked looking around the library. “ I always figured you'd wind up living in a library, though not exactly this literally.”
“Yeah yeah.” His sister smiled.
“So anything exciting going on?”
“Nothing, Fluttershy became a model briefly because she was certain Rarity wanted her too, and Rarity was miserable because Fluttershy became famous when she didn't.” Twilight sighed. “Someone needed to make sense into them and I finally managed it without Pinkie's constant interruptions.”
“Sounds about normal from what you've said about these mares before.” Shining chuckled before to find out something is missing. "Where's Leo?"
"Oh, you know him. An outdoorsy every day, last time I saw him after he helping Rarity with Fluttershy."
"Oh, so. How's it go?" The stallion asked.
"Excuse me?"
"Oooh, you know. Experiment him like lab rats every time he discovered new things." He chimed.
"W-what?! Not I'm not-"
"Come on, don't give me that look." He glare. "I know you, Twily. And studying is your favourite things and looking at Leo, you just found an untold discovered."
The royal guard just stares at her without a blink, as the lavender mare sighed. "Fine, a last couple of week he unlocked new elements."
"A New one? Two of the three is hard to handle."
"Yes, it called a Leaf Elemental, and by studying it, it not strong enough compared with his other three elements. While he in this form, he kinda childish, naive, and innocent. Also, he gets distracted very easy with low bravery." She explained.
"Well, not qualify to become a royal guard," Shining commented.
"Shining Armor! Leo, we're not meant to become one of the royal guards!" She glared at him, only the sound of a chuckle came from him.
"I know, Twily. Just messing with you."
The unicorn mare rolls her eyes as she continued. "Anyway, Princess Celestia says not to tell anypony about it but since your not always be here in Ponyville, I can make excuse."
"Ooh?" A little surprise from her brother.
"What's that 'ooh' huh?" She gives annoying look.
"Oh, nothing. It just that you're gonna lose a bit of princess request? This is new, even for you, Twily."
"That's because she makes Leo do all the things he didn't rather know or what trouble and she doesn't ask permission from me! Like this time when I was asleep at the Canterlot Library, she told him that put back every book I finished will make him important? I mean what is that?! Or the time that she told him to shocks me with his Lightning Elements wherever I fainted!
"Twily... I think Leo just bored." Shining said, which make her confused.
"What?"
"You know him, he's a 13-year-old back there but he acts like a foal...or cub, whatever, the meaning is that he likes to explore new things or doing something to past the time. I think princess Celestia told him that so he couldn't get bored with the library. Now tell me, sis. You know that place is quite right?"
"Yes." Twilight answer.
"Did he yawn some time?"
"Y-yes..."
"And have you seen him sitting next to you? Or just sit still?"
"No...he wonders around the library."
"Exactly, he wasn't a bookworm like you. He might feel tired because of going to the same location. Come on, Twily! You should be proud that not only you finally got a friend... You did, right?" A nodded received. "Great! But another that is Leo got to scan new aspects from this town. Princess Celestia has a reason so both of you won't be spiritless, so that's win-win for you guys."
"Woah... That's true, Princess Celestia send me here to make friends and I did, plus Leo got to explore this new area around him which make him happy." A smile performs from Twilight. "Thank you, BBBFF."
"Anything for my sister." He smiled, before looking at with a mix of curious and serious expression. "So... Does one of your friends is a stallion?"
"Oh boy..." This makes Twilight lost her smile as she sighs, knowing that she will be the last of all her friends to marry.
