Ponyville Highschool 11:02am

Twilight Sparkle has arrived to her classroom where she will have her English lesson, she entered the room and took a seat at the far left of the room.

Thorax has arrived after Twilight five seconds later and entered the classroom. Then, he walked up to the far left side of the classroom and took a seat next to Twilight. That resulted in making her blush slightly due to her remembering what she saw.

"Hello there Twilight, I hope you do not mind me sitting next to you."

"Oh uh, i-it's okay." Twilight assured him with an anxious smile "I don't mind." She td him.

Thorax found something very off about Twilight's voice, she was talking in a very uneasy manner, it was like she had seen a ghost but, he shrugged it off and looked forward in order to start the class.

"Welcome back class." The mare teacher greeted with a smile "I have something to tell you all today." She told them.

"And what is this something miss?" A stallion asked at the back of the class.

"This something is an essay!" She announced happily.

When everypony heard this, they were very nonplussed, while it is obvious that their English teacher has given them a lot of essay to do in class. But, this one was a bit unknown.

"An essay?" Twilight asked with a surprised expression.

"Correct Twilight Sparkle." The teacher said with a nod "In addition to that, this is going to be group task." She told them.

After that, the teacher carried a stack of paper with her hooves and began to give them to everyone, one for each two individuals. She first started with Thorax and Twilight, she placed in front of the two of them and the Changeling and the Unicorn mare began to scrutinize the essay sheet. After that, the teacher carried on and began passing the sheet to more of her students in class.

"Huh, it seems like we're working together." Twilight said with a nonplussed expression.

"Yeah, quite a coincidence." Thorax said with a chuckle, and Twilight giggled in return. After that, he began to read the informations of the essay.

Topic: Technology
What to write: Write about the advantages and disadvantages about us using our technology in our daily lives
Score: 50

"Okay class, the essay is going to be die tomorrow." The teacher told them "So, I expect you all to complete it together and give it to me by tomorrow." She said.

"Tomorrow?!" Twilight thought with wide eyes.

12:00am

At the school canteen, the ponies and changelings were seen having their lunches on benches in the large room. During that, they all also had conversations with each other about how they days are going and many more.

On the bench where Thorax and Twilight were sitting on, the changeling and the unicorn were both seen staring at the essay paper while eating, but Twilight was the one who is eating the most.

"So Thorax, what plan do you have?" Twilight asked while munching on her bread.

"Okay, so here's what I have in mind." Thorax said, and Twilight began to listen "What I would say is that we should start with an introduction to our essay, after that, we will begin to talk about the pros and cons about technology as well as giving information about what we are using them for in our daily lives. Finally, we will conclude it with saying what good technology is, and the bad of it." He delineated.

Twilight took a second to acknowledge Thorax's statement. It does seem complex and all with trying to represent the pros and cons of technology used in their daily lives as well as to express what we use them for. But, as long as Thorax is here to teach her, everything will be okay.

"Okay Thorax, it's a plan." She told him with a smile.

"Wonderful, do you want to do it in the library after school?" He asked her.

Twilight's eyes widened when she heard his inquiry and suggestion, she does not have time to go to the school library today because her parents wants her to always come back home early in order to avoid anxiety from them. She tried to tell Thorax the problem but, due to the tumoltuous noises that the ponies and changelings are currently making, it would make it very difficult.

"Thorax, can we take this outside?" She asked him "It is quite loud here, and that would make you not being able to hear me saying my problem." She told him.

Thorax was bewildered by this, he does understand that it is very loud hear which means that it would be hard for him to be able to listen to her but, what is this problem that she has? He just has to find out.

"Okay then."

Twilight smiled in delight and she stood up from the bench along with Thorax, after that, the unicorn and the changeling began to make their way to the doors of the canteen.

"Looks like the potato mare has a crush on the changeling." Starlight whispered with Trixie.

Once Thorax and Twilight has exited the canteen, the pair stood by the left side of the doors.

"Okay Twilight, what is this issue that you speak of?" He asked her.

"Well, because of some unfortunate circumstances, I cannot go to the library and do our work after school." She replied while rubbing the back of her head "And that circumstance is my parents wanting me to always come home very early." She added.

Thorax was surprised by this, he does understand that she needs to listen to her parents, but, now where will they be able to do their essay.

"Its okay Twilight, I understand." Thorax told her in a gentle tone "So, where else would you suggest us to write our essay?" He asked her.

Twilight then took a deep breath and exhaled it due to her only knowing one place to do their essay.

"Perhaps, I could invite you to my home to do our essay."

Thorax was surprised again by this, but, he shrugged it off and accepted it.

"Okay, I guess we can do that." Thorax said with a shrug "Besides, we have an essay to do as long as your parents won't be too aggressive with me around you." He told her.

Twilight was flabbergasted by his reply as well as his bravery. At first, she thought that he would be frightened by the thought of meeting her parents while doing the essay. But, his fearless response has completely blown her away.

"Wonderful!" Twilight said with a wide smile. And Thorax blushed a bit from her adorable expression "So, I guess we'll meet each other at the front gates of the school after our last periods?" She asked.

"Sure, it's a plan."

"Great!" Twilight said in a contented manner "I guess I'll see you by three o' five then." She told him.

"Okay, see ya."

Twilight waved her right hoof in a way to say goodbye to him before turning around and walking away. While she was walking away, Thorax's eyes were now fixated onto her butt.

"Dang..." Thorax muttered while blushing softly. But then, he shook his head and snapped out of it "What am I doing?! This is wrong! Get a hold of yourself Thorax!" He scolded himself.
