This was it. They stood at the door of the library, anxiety coursing through them. By the four alicorns, they hated being here with every fiber of their being. The very air seemed thick with an unspoken “I’m better than you” energy.

Time Turner and Sky Seer exchanged a glance, each of them silently weighing the gravity of their decision. With a deep breath, Sky raised his hoof and knocked on Twilight Sparkle’s door.

After a moment, the door swung open, revealing Twilight, her eyes sparkling with curiosity. “Oh! Time Turner! Sky Seer! What brings you here?”

Sky felt a knot tighten in his stomach. “Um, we need to talk,” he said, trying to keep his voice steady.

Twilight tilted her head, sensing the seriousness in his tone. “Sure! Come in!” She stepped aside, allowing them to enter.

As they crossed the threshold, the familiar scent of books enveloped them, mixing with a hint of lavender. But the cozy atmosphere did little to calm their nerves.

“Is everything okay?” Twilight asked, her brow furrowing with concern as she noticed their tense expressions.

Time Turner exchanged a wary glance with Sky before speaking. “We’ve been doing some research… and we think there’s something important we need to discuss with you.”

“Research?” Twilight’s interest piqued, but a flicker of apprehension crossed her face. “What kind of research?”

Sky took a deep breath, steeling himself. “It’s about the sun and moon… and what we believe the princesses have been hiding from us.”

Twilight snorted, and said, “yes, right, celestia? Lie? Nice one.” time turner groaned, and face-hooved. “Sky i told you this was a bad idea!”

Sky pressed on, undeterred by Twilight’s skepticism. “No, really! We’ve done the calculations. The moon’s gravitational effects are inconsistent with what the texts say. It’s like they’re hiding something fundamental!”

Twilight raised an eyebrow, crossing her forelegs. “And you think I’m going to take your word for it? You both come here, claiming the princesses are lying, and expect me to just believe you?”

Time Turner chimed in, “We’re not saying they’re lying outright, but the data suggests there’s more to the story. We think it’s worth investigating.”

Twilight sighed, her expression softening slightly. “Look, I get that you’re passionate about this, but you have to understand the implications. If you’re wrong—”

“But what if we’re right?” Sky interrupted, his voice rising. “What if the truth is far more complicated? Don’t you care about what’s really happening?”

Twilight hesitated, glancing between the two of them. “Fine. Show me what you’ve got. But if this turns out to be a wild goose chase, I’m holding you both responsible.”

Time Turner and Sky exchanged relieved glances. “Thank you,” Sky said, the tension easing slightly. “We promise—it’s worth your time.”

An hour later, twilight was ALSO freaking out.
She paced the floor of her library, her expression a mix of disbelief and concern. “You mean to tell me that the moon isn’t just a flat piece of crystal? That it actually has gravitational pull?”

Sky nodded vigorously, feeling a rush of validation. “Exactly! The data doesn’t lie. We’ve been looking at this all wrong!”

Time Turner chimed in, “And if the princesses are hiding this from us, what else are they keeping secret? We need to dig deeper!”

Twilight halted, her eyes wide. “But… why? Why would they lie about something so fundamental? It doesn’t make any sense!”

“Exactly!” Sky exclaimed, his frustration bubbling over. “That’s what we need to figure out! If they’re willing to manipulate such a basic truth, who knows what else is at stake?”

Twilight ran a hoof through her mane, her mind racing. “Okay, okay. Let’s not panic. We need to approach this methodically. What’s our first step?”

Sky exchanged a glance with Time Turner. “We need to gather more evidence. Find more data. Maybe even talk to some other scholars who might share our concerns.”

Twilight nodded slowly, her scientific curiosity kicking in. “Alright. Let’s start by reviewing every piece of research on celestial mechanics we can find. If there’s a pattern, we’ll uncover it.”

“Fucking poser…” muttered time turner, so that only sky could hear him.
