Jim stood there at his front door as he looked at the crude blue map. With a snort, and a thought, the map zipped away from his vision since he already knew where he was going. Remembering the trio of L's on the map he spotted three young colts playing tag off to his left. He smiled at the sight and gave a small nod to one of the colts he knew. His daughter knew him too, but Jim was keeping an eye on them both.

His walk was predominantly uneventful. Like he saw this morning form his window, many of the ponies simply walked around to figure out if they needed to help with something. Until communication was back up the whole city was 'dark'. Jim sighed at the thought, he had to do his job so other ponies could do theirs.

Incoming Transmission From Forest

He blinked. With a thought he accepted the call.

"Hey! I found your Specs on the Grid. Slight detour with the map. Apparently were fixing the systems themselves, not the wires." Forest's voice flowed into his mind. This type of communication was always tedious since the other pony could hear, and see, your exact thoughts.

"Fantastic. You know, i may be an earth pony but i still detest the tunnels down there. How bad is it?" Jim replied with practice. He mentally pulled up his map zooming out enough to find Forest's Specs.

"Hmmm, nothing to bad as far as i can tell. Some standered wire changing, A new Red Cys Mark v4, and Blue too, couple of Gm Cooling Mark v3, the usual." Forest sent along with a 'snap shot' of the damage. "Just old age buddy, which speaking of it, how old are you now? I see your mane is getting grey." Forest giggled at the last part.

"My mane was always grey you ass, now send me the snap shot again, you switched to my hair before i could properly see it." Jim responded smiling. Forest would joke a lot but he made up for it by knowing his job.

"Oh right sorry, jeez they should really ... i dunno upgrade these spells? Oh Luna, imagine speaking to a mare on the job trying so hard not to think of her plot." Forest sent the shot again along with a very detailed plot of the secretary of their building.

"I see the damage. Oh and i noticed you still have a crush on miss Shimmer? You do realize she thinks your a complete creep right?" Jim laughed as both pictures almost fought each other to escape his mind.

"H-hey! shut up. Just get your grey mane down here and help me fix this. Besides, how can you not think of her?" Forest asked while you could subconsciously hear his tools slamming into the crystals.

"Im married remember? Not that hard, and besides talking to my wife through this gives great practice." Jim replied just as he got to the service door to the tunnels.

"Actually ive been meaning to ask about that..." Forest started.

"Ask what?" Jim obliviously asked.

"Have you guys ... ever ... Ya know. Done it via Telepathy?" Forest slowly asked.

"Forest. Shut up." Jim thought.

"I didn't hear a no~!" Forest quipped before his mental call was cut from Jim's side
