Radish trotted into the palace’s gymnasium, over to the wrestling ring. He found Flash Sentry pinning and defeating Dune Crest, a tan earth stallion. The guards watching cheered.
“Hey, Root,” said Flash, toweling off. “Did you come to wrestle again?”
“Nah, I came to wish you luck at your new post.”
“Thanks! I’m looking forward to it. The Crystal Empire is an amazing place.”
“What made you want to transfer?”
“Actually, Princess Luna recommended me!”
“Really?”
“Yeah, ever since I caught her falling off her balcony, we’ve been good friends.”
“I didn’t realize.”
“She did this thing where she kissed my cheek and called it ‘bestowing a favor’. It was really cute.”
“Oh… I see.”
“Since then, I’ve been guarding her door on The Night Shift. We hang out a lot now.”
“I’m… I’m glad she has a new friend.”
“So, when Princess Cadance expressed concern that the Empire didn’t have enough air support, Princess Luna suggested I transfer. She said her niece could use a ‘brave and skilled’ flier such as myself on her Honor Guard.”
“That’s… wonderful.”
“Plus, the Empire's music scene is a thousand years out of date. They could use a modern rock infusion.”
“I’m sorry I never came to hear your band play.”
“Don’t be. We were terrible.”
Zero entered the gym and hovered over them.
“Root, Shining Armor wants to see you.”
“Oh? Okay.”
Zero nodded and flew off.
“Hey, maybe Luna’s recommended you for transfer, too!” suggested Flash.
“I can’t move. I’m with someone now.”
“Is it serious?”
“I think so.”
“Would she move for you?”
“I couldn’t ask her to do that.”
“Then, is it really that serious?”
“I… shouldn’t keep the prince waiting.”
Radish Root sat in front of Shining Armor for what was possibly the last time. His office was emptied of personal items, leaving only basic furniture and a fern.
“Well, Root. That’s it for me. As of thirty minutes ago, I am no longer the captain around here.”
“Yes, your highness. I’d like to thank you for the opportunity to work with you, and wish you luck in the future.”
“Aw, that’s sweet, Root. But we haven’t seen the last of each other.”
“No?”
“Yeah, Hearts and Hooves is tomorrow.”
“I, uh, don’t follow.”
“We’re having a surprise dinner for Twilight in Canterlot! Me, Cadance, my parents, Spike, and the Ponyville gang will be coming. Her pen pal should be there, too.”
“The dinner is a surprise? For her too, I mean?”
“Yeah, we’ve set up a scavenger hunt for her! She thinks she’s finding clues to uncover some ancient magic, but it’s really going to lead her to the restaurant. We’ll all surprise her there with gifts!”
“So there’s no ancient magic at the end of it?”
“Sure there is- friendship! Get it?”
“That’s nice. I wish I knew about this before I made reservations at Chez Foin.”
“For who?”
“My girlfriend and I.”
“You have a girlfriend?”
“Yes, sir.”
“Trust me, you don’t want to take a girl to Chez Foin, anyway. Cadance and I went there all the time. They were always forgetting to put her dressing on the side.”
“That’s monstrous, sir.”
“So, seven tomorrow, at Starting Gate’s. Dress nice.”
“I’ll talk to Light Fantastic.”
“Who?”
“My girlfriend.”
“Sure. Oh yeah, Princess Celestia wants to see you. Courtyard A.”
Radish exited the office. He had to take a minute for himself before continuing. He felt a pain in his jaw, and realized it had been clenched tightly. He relaxed it, feeling relief.
Radish made his way to the courtyard and opened the door. He saw Celestia, sitting on the same bench as last time, in front of a small table with a kettle and mugs. She wore a rich velvet cloak around her. He approached her and saluted. She returned the salute.
“Radish, come join me in a mug of hot chocolate. It’s perfect for this time of year.”
“Thank you, princess.”
He sat next to her and she passed him a mug. It was a multi-pony mug, the kind engineered with micro-grooves so that it could easily be held with a unicorn’s aura, a pegasus’s wings, or an earth pony’s hooves. He sipped. The taste was more complex than he was expecting- semisweet, with hints of several seasonal spices.
“This is really good.”
“Isn’t it?”
Radish looked up at the tree in front of them.
“How’s the orange tree, princess?”
“Are you asking literally, or is that your way of asking for a performance review?”
“I meant literally, but if you have any comments…”
“You've exceeded my expectations in all respects. I have no doubt that accepting you into my Guard was the right decision.”
“Thank you, ma’am.”
“And the tree did well this year. A fantastic crop. But there is something odd about how it faces the winter. At this time of year, the oranges turn incredibly sour and acidic. They’re only good for sauces and hard candies. And the rind becomes extra potent for flavoring things.”
She picked up an orange and a microplane grater, and shaved some rind onto Radish’s hot chocolate. He tried it.
“It tastes amazing.”
“Doesn’t it? This winter change doesn’t happen in Balencia- it seems to be a side effect of our soils.”
“So, even though the tree and I didn’t belong here, hidden things about ourselves were revealed when we were planted here.”
“Don’t torture the metaphor, Radish. It’s told us all it knows.”
“Sorry, ma’am.”
“Shining Armor is leaving us now. On to much larger responsibilities.”
“I’m happy. For him.”
“I wanted to hear your opinion on his tenure as captain.”
“I think he’s done a-”
“And remember, as my friend, you are to be honest with me.”
“...I don’t want to say anything bad about him.”
“Oh?”
“And I do respect him- he was willing to give me a chance here. I’ve learned a lot from him.”
“Yes?”
“I know you two are family. And he’s Twilight’s brother.”
“Let’s hear the ‘but’, Radish.”
“But, ma’am…” Radish put his mug down and took a deep breath. "Shining Armor is a dumb jock and he protects you like one!”
Celestia’s expression kept steady. She took a sip from her mug. “Do go on.”
“Have you seen some of the plans he’s proposed for the palace? He wanted to permanently seal up all the tunnels in the underground.”
“You object to that?”
“Yes! They’re perfect for trapping infiltrators. If somepony wants to sneak into the palace, the tunnels are the first place they’ll try. If they see the tunnels are sealed, they’ll try somewhere else topside- and possibly escalate with a more dangerous plan for dealing with the guards they meet. But if they’re allowed into the tunnels, they could be funneled into non-lethal traps and apprehended safely.”
“I believe this is the key difference between you and Shining Armor. He prefers to keep invaders out, while you’d like to draw them into a trap.”
“I guess I’m just still thinking like a Ranger. On the plains, there weren’t walls to keep attackers out. If a jackalope was after me, I’d have to set a snare and hide in ambush.”
“I value all the unique perspectives that guards from different backgrounds bring to the palace. But I chose Shining Armor as my captain for a reason, Radish, and it’s not because of his shield spells. I value his uncomplicated, strong, and visible approach to defense.”
“Did you know he had this idea to put big fans all over Canterlot’s rooftops to repel flying enemies?”
“You disapprove?”
“Yes. Fans take a long time to spin up to maximum speed, and a long time to spin down. They don’t discriminate between friend and foe. While in use, pegasi, including the Wonderbolts, would be grounded. Even you and Princess Luna, ma’am. Allied birds would be flung out of town. And I don’t even want to think about how loud they’d be- it would be impossible to hear anything.”
“Haven’t you complained about the towers’ vulnerabilities from the air?”
“There’s a better way. Instead of fans, use air jets. The pumps would be safely kept underground, and pressurized air could be stored for use on demand. Then, blasts of air could be funneled up through pipes and out of nozzles on the roofs. And those nozzles could be aimed and fired as needed. If a Wonderbolt is being chased, for example, then only the chaser could be targeted. You can’t do that with a fan.”
“That sounds exceedingly complicated. It would take a lot of engineering.”
"Well... reverse-engineering, actually. Nightmare Moon already designed and built a precision air cannon."
"Nightmare Moon, Radish? The citizens of Canterlot may not like living with her weapons hanging over their heads."
"They'd never see it. The cannon nozzles could be discreetly hidden in Canterlot’s architecture, unlike the fans, which would ruin Canterlot’s skyline.”
“I had no idea you cared so much about the city’s aesthetics.”
“It’s a beautiful city, princess. The lines and curves were built deliberately by its architects.”
“I knew those architects, Radish. They would happily ruin every building’s look if it meant protecting ponies.”
“Oh. I’m sorry, ma’am. I just get carried away when I’m thinking of how to protect… well, you.”
“I appreciate that. I actually enjoy reading your suggestions.”
“They reach you? I thought Shining and Barrel just toss them.”
“We don’t throw away ideas. Even if they’re not used, they’re respected. And archived.”
“Wow, I’m in the archives? I feel important now.”
He chuckled. Something drifted down in front of him- a snowflake. He looked up. Snow was falling all around them. Radish shivered.
“Was there snow on the Southern Plains?” Celestia asked, watching the snow drift down into the courtyard.
“Sometimes, on the mountains. It’s wild sky there, ma’am. No pegasi to schedule the snow. You just had to take the weather as it was.”
He rubbed his hooves together and breathed on them.
“Here,” said Celestia.
Her wing pushed open her cloak and pulled Radish into her side, closing the cloak around the two of them. He instantly felt warmer. Her fur and feathers were unbelievably soft. Her perfume was subtle and breezy.
“This is but a simple gesture of comfort between friends, you understand,” she said.
“I know, ma’am. Thank you.” He curled up between her wing and her body, trying to calm his breathing.
He looked up at the top of the courtyard. “That’s a security risk, too, princess. This courtyard is open to the sky.”
“That is the point of a courtyard, Radish.”
“But it can be gated. Look, we could put bars over the opening.”
“Would that not ruin the aesthetics, as well?”
“No, because it could be done well. Make it an intricate pattern, like in the Cart Nouveau style.”
“Cart Nouveau uses delicate linework. That doesn’t sound very defensive.”
“With the right alloy, the bars would hold. After all,” he said, looking up at her, “just because something is beautiful, doesn’t mean it can’t be strong.”
Celestia looked into his eyes, smiling. “You think?”
“I know. Just like Light Fantastic.”
Celestia stopped smiling. “Beg pardon?”
“My girlfriend. She’s really beautiful, but totally confident.”
"Ah. That's nice."
“There’s one more thing. I’ve been very hesitant, well scared, to bring it up for the longest time.”
“Tell me.”
He took a deep breath. “I think you should take hoof-to-hoof combat lessons.”
“Oh?”
“Please, I only say this because I care…”
“I know.”
“…but Chrysalis took you down too quickly. I know she was getting an incredible boost of power from Shining’s love, and I can’t measure what that was…”
“Right.”
“I heard you locked horns with her. And that’s amazing. But then you resorted to a magic duel too quickly.”
“Resorted, you say. What should I have done differently?”
“I know you have earth pony strength. You should default to earth pony fighting techniques. Let that be your bread and butter, instead of spells. Get close, hit hard and fast. She wouldn’t have seen it coming. When you locked horns with her, you could have taken advantage of her momentum and slammed her to the floor. A follow-up heel to the face could have knocked her out, no magic dueling needed.”
“I see,” said Celestia. “You have been fantasizing about me rolling around on the floor with Chrysalis. Perhaps in a puddle of mud, or a tub of jelly?”
“Princess, I’m only saying this because I care about you.”
“Radish, do you think there has been a single day since the wedding that I haven’t gone over the fight in my head, agonizing over everything I did wrong?”
“I’m sorry, ma’am. It wasn’t my place.”
“Do you think I’ve been sitting idly by since then, stagnating? Frittering away the hours while our enemies loom in the darkness?”
“I beg your forgiveness.”
“Do you want to show me what you think you’re talking about?”
“Ma’am?”
Celestia spread her wings, throwing off the cloak from them. She stepped forward into the center of the courtyard. She turned to him with disdain in her eyes.
“If you’re so confident in your fighting style, demonstrate it. Take me down as easily as you claim I could have taken down Chrysalis.”
“Ma’am! I’m so sorry!”
She pointed a hoof at him. “I challenge you to an official sparring match. Here. Now.”
“Ma’am, we can’t fight in here! There are thorny bushes, trees, snow, stone furniture…”
“Do you think Chrysalis will wait to fight me in a padded gym?”
“I don’t want you to get hurt!”
“You don’t want me to get hurt. How chivalrous of you. How gallant! How kind. I request Canterbury Rules, Variant Seven. Does that satisfy you?”
“Seven! We can’t!”
“I’ll make this interesting. Tomorrow is Hearts and Hooves Day, is it not? If you win, you and Light Fantastic may spend it in the royal spa. Just you two. All inclusive.”
“I… really?”
Radish’s mind reeled. Nopony but princesses used the royal spa. Some doubted its existence.
“But if you lose,” she said, “you’ll spend the holiday mucking the pigeon tower.”
“I… I accept.”
“Good.”
Celestia’s horn glowed, and a large hourglass appeared hovering in the center of the courtyard.
“You will have ten minutes to pin both of my shoulders to the ground. If you are unable to do so, I win.”
“I understand.”
She cast another spell, and glowing signs appeared on the windows of the courtyard, facing into the halls. They read, “Official Match Starting Soon. No Entry.” The windows and doors of the courtyard locked themselves.
A trunk appeared on the ground and popped open. Inside was wrestling gear for two, a wraparound wing brace, and a horn pad. Celestia took off her crown, shoes, and peytral, and placed them in the box. She wrapped her wings tightly, and secured the pad on her horn.
Radish looked at her in awe. She had given up her wings and horn without hesitation. Without fear of him.
He slowly undid his armor and placed it in the box. He unbelted his saddle blanket and placed it with his armor, exposing his cutie marks.
Celestia looked upon Radish’s marks for the first time in years. She glowered at them. Radish quickly pulled on the wrestling singlet to cover them.
They finished dressing and began to stretch, looking at each other over their shoulders.
A cliffhanger of Grand Canyon proportions. A terrible thing to have to suffer.
Uh oh. Now she grumpy... are we gonna watch radish take down a princess? Or is he about to get mashed?
this isn't going to end well for radish
11417965
Amen.
Shiny is a hiney and Celly is jelly.
Geez, either Celestia is more insecure about her fight with Chrysalis than she lets on, or the Palace inhabitants have a serious "Taking Reasonable Criticism" problem.
You know, between the weird emphasis on Light's name and Celestia's sudden mood shift the nanosecond she was brought up, I'd say we're about due for the inevitable bomb to be dropped.
I swear if she tries to get in between radish and his girlfriend due to jealousy i'll be pissed. You shove him off how many times, but the ONE TIME he finds love and is enjoying his self, THEN you decide you have feelings for him?
Anyways enough of that, this was a fantastic chapter and I can't wait for the next one!
This is gonna be good.
EZ win for Sunbutt
11418001
I believe all inhabitants of canterlot including the princesses and guard are incredibly proud. And I think there is a certain level of insecurity Celestia has over light Fantastic.
Glad to see that conditioning hasn't gone to waste.
I really like how almost every time I open an updated chapter, the cover art image is different
After this remark Radish deserves some mind-freshing bashing.
11418004
Seems to be less of her having feelings for him and more of this being the result of an absolute cocktail of poorly-timed events.
First, Twilight and her friends begin to one-up Celestia without even knowing it. Then, she gets one-shotted by Chrysalis who didn't even break a sweat doing so, in her own Palace at that. Then, she finds out that Discord was apparently conscious for those 1000 years he was trapped in stone, and she starts to think of herself as a slaver of him. And then to top it all off, Radish Root, the pony with the CM of him going to town on her, the pony who spent a good chunk of his life chasing her, finally and possibly fully gets over her and begins a relationship with someone else, and oh-so-conveniently only a few days after Celestia suffered one of her worst defeats in recent history for all to see.
She's going through possibly a major insecurity problem, yet has done a very good job at hiding it. But now that Radish is telling her to her face that "Hey I was going over the After Action Report and in case Chrysalis ever comes back for Round 2 you could maybe do this so you don't get beaten" it's finally coming out into the open. And he's gonna be the first to deal with it.
In B4 someone sees Radish pinning Celestia and jumps to conclusions
11417998
A bit childish, but apt, I'd say.
Alright, get the flowers 💐 it seems like there’s a Root planted this weekend. Rip Radish Root may you Rest In Peace
Honestly, I don't expect Radish to end up with Celestia. With the title of the fic being "The Only Mark That Matters," I expect for the moral being something along the lines of "The only mark that matters is the one you leave on the world." I expect the story to be more small stakes, with Radish and Light getting together, and having a happy life together. Radish is going to prove that his cutiemarks don't matter, and he can live a happy life regardless.
His slight, or her perceived one?
It’s amazing that both Shining Armor and Celestia want to ruin Heart and Hooves Day for Radish.
Personally, I hope Radish wins the duel. He can take Light Fantastic to dinner at Starting Gate’s and then the day afterwards take her to the Royal Spa. All the while, shocking everyone in the process.
To be honest, on the chapter where we see Light Fantastic in that Celestia wig (heavens forbid), I'm expecting the cover art to change to an oc pony wearing a Celestia wig
Another cracker, I think we can all tell Celestia's getting jealous. I mean nobody emphasises someone elses name like that without so much as a hint of jealousy
That's a bit of an escalation for someone who supposedly sees Radish as a friend.
Regardless of how poor his judgement was, this blew up way too quickly.
Especially since she's supposed to be the "great leader and moderator". Imagine her being like this to a foreign leader.
If this was actually just about his comments, she should be able to turn the other cheek or blow it off like she does for everypony else.
There's also how she's been acting weird about him having a relationship now... and him being happy with it.
Something else is going on here.
Not saying she's into him, but something doesn't seem right...
So. . . Am I the only one imagining that his cutie mark is him actually getting ready to suplex Celestia?
Hmmm... Just had a thought. What if Radish's feelings for Celestia were diminished by the love draining?
Not completely gone, just a lot less strong than they were previously. His interactions with her have seemed quite... clipped after the events of the Wedding. Perhaps the draining of his love has left him with more bitter feelings left over than good ones.
You could say that Shining Armor's situation would be a strong counter to that argument, since he "recovered" quite quickly, but Cadance was actually there to reciprocate, making his situation quite different.
Anyway... Mayhaps Radish just needs a "spark" to rekindle those doused emotions.
This little tussle might even be just that.
This seems less of a Celestia being jelly and more her getting pissed off by Radish being overprotective.
He literally insinuated to build a golden cage for her, and that phrase about "something being beautiful-yet-strong" may have been interpreted by her as him implying Celestia be strong despite her failure, but then Radish just had to clarify what he meant...
Let's wait and see now whether he ends up in the infirmary and/or getting dumped by LF after failing to show up on the H&Hs day.
11418123
And yet again Radish is getting dumped on from the majority of his superiors. Shining immediately undoes all his work from the changeling invasion and ignores his recommendations, and now Celestia is getting all pissy over his opinions after she specifically asked for them? Honestly, I think he'd be better off going back to the Rangers, since most all of the staff above him seems to hate his guts. Aside from Luna, although she's seen him maybe once since the invasion? And that was just in a dream.
Kriffing Shining trying to dragoon Radish into missing his date. Well he can get kriffed, Radiah isn't in his chain of command anymore.
Also, Radish may be surprised as to what a princess might pick up over a thousand years or more, no quick and easy fights for him.
11418241
I hope Radish doesn’t attend the dinner and later sends a letter to Twilight to explain the situation. He can say to her that he planned a romantic evening with his marefriend and Shining Armor deliberately tried to ruin it. Basically, put the ball in Shining Armor’s court and make him deal with the fallout.
But if he does attend the dinner, I hope he takes Light Fantastic and makes it known to everyone that Shining Armor ruined their plans for Hearts and Hooves Day. Again, put the ball in Shining Armor’s court and make him deal with the fallout.
Overall, Radish needs to establish boundaries with Shining Armor and enforce consequences if said boundaries are violated.
11418054
Personally, I hope that Radish doesn’t end up with Celestia either. Right now, it looks like she only developed interest in Radish after he entered a relationship with another mare.
If that is true, then it is no different than a dog with a bone.
11418093
I like to think that the explanation for Celestia’s current behavior is that Harmony is trying to get her to hook up with Radish and help him fulfill his cutie mark.
But her refusing to cooperate is causing her internal grief and anguish.
11418123
While that would be hilarious, I think it's pretty clear from previous discussions that she's... enjoying the situation far too much in the mark for it to be wrestling.
I'm thinking something is wrong with the whole situation. Celestia doesn't sound like Celestia to me.
11418031
I clarify what I've meant by remerk before Celestia challenges him - in the day before H&H day he says compliment that describes Celestia - beautiful and strong - and immediately says that it isn't about her. Which means either he insults her with beauty remark, or he says that she's weak, or both. Combined with what you've described. He could have said that his remark applies to them both - to Celestia and to LF - but no, he said that it doesn't applied to her.
11418079
Why no one wants to give them benefit of the doubt? Shining Armor evidently think about his sister and really want to make beautiful day for her. He may even planned everything and already included Radish into his plan, evidently not suspecting of him that he could have goten GF. And after not so strong rebutall he may desperately attempted to save his envisioned perfect day for sister.
And Celestia - he insulted her right before day that supposed to be beautiful. Honestly, all this challenge looks to me like she learned great deal about him and his interests, including drive for some(what) high stakes. This is something what his best buddy among guards could have done as part of heated friendly banter after couple of mugs of booze.
I for one don't even care for a fight, being here for development in dialogues.
I kind of feel bad for Radish,, well i hope he likes mucking out pigeon poo.
11418321
Well, Celestia constantly wears masks, even among friends, and only in last seasons allows herself to somewhat put them down. In their with Luna day off she was shown to be eager for a challenge, for something that got blood pumping and adrenaline rising, she was shown that she too have feelings and could be petty. She shown genuine effort to make time and attention to be more friendly to Radish, to let her guard and masks down around him. And then in the eve of Hearts and Hooves day he insults her. What is and who are Celestia if her masks crumble down?
Call me crazy, but I think Celestia's actions in this chapter are leading up to a test of character to see if Radish really is serious. Both about Light, and about having moved on from her. She made a generous offer for him and Light if he can best her, and warned there'd be shitty consequences if he failed. He could've just walked away and taken the safe route, and still had H&H Day with Light, but he chose to brave the threat of pigeon shit because he wants to do something special for her. That's the mark of someone who's serious about someone else.
11418380
Not necessarily.
Oh man I have to rack a point to radish here in the contest because it looked like he drew first blood before the fight even started.
11418123
Turns out his special talent is taking Celestia to Pound-town. He was just using the wrong definition of 'pound'.
11418394
11418025
Lol, what's difference? Our commentaries essentially the same.
11418374
Well it's not like he meant to insult her.
Honestly, it's Celestia's "masks" that are causing the problems here. Radish's clueless ass probably thought that she was taking things fairly well post-Wedding, as well as thought that he was the only one that needed to get over this Cutie Mark debacle, and that Celestia was taking it in stride.
11418431
Meant or not, he did. Thoroughly.
First, yes, Shining really does protect the Princess like a big, dumb jock. This apparently includes trying to muscle Radish away from his new girlfriend on hearts and hooves.
I… cannot actually tell who I want to win here. There’s so many delicious possibilities here, and even though Celestia likely already has hoof to hoof training given what we know of hers and Luna’s past in this story, she might well be rusty, while Radish is known for having trained to take on things larger than him.
Either could win, and well, win or lose, things are gonna get weird when he tells Light about this. There’s no way light won’t pick up on Celestia being jealous, and if Radish loses that could lead to a whole second fight if Light gets pissed enough at Celestia. There’s also still the tiny chance that Celestia has actually been Light all along, and that the charade is now grating on her, but I give that really low odds and mostly toss it in as the Darkhorse odds wise. As funny as it might be, I can’t figure how Celestia could do it. Even daydreaming magic like we saw from Halycon doesn’t feel like it would accomplish that.
What the fuck, Celestia?
11418529
You know, it occurs to me that the wrestling with Chrysalis line is exactly the sort of crass comment Light would say, and I didn’t pick up on it until you called the strangeness of it out. I keep saying Celestia being Light is just a low possibility crazy conspiracy and dark horse contender, but like… it really does put certain lines in a new light. You can see it in some of Light’s recent lines too. Light has had a pretty weird fixation on jokes about Celestia being jealous, and the way everything is written, its hard to tell how much she means them as an in joke or if there’s another layer, because some of her jokes were a bit… harsh?
11418546
Well, no one seen them both in the same room...
But even if it would happen so, there's still this guy:
11397634
Radish's talent of getting into trouble going off again, it seems. Oh, Celestia... why the jealousy? You're the one who encouraged him to stray away from you, and now you're pissed that he's with someone else? Was the idea of someone who feels so strongly about you really so appealing that you have to act out like this?
11418222
Then again, something akin to this seems more likely. Radish's words may have struck a chord in Celestia that was already under pressure and snapped it. And now she's taking it out on both him and his girlfriend. Whoops.
11418463
I'm more amused by the idea of radish pining celestia down while on top and suddenly some one else maybe luna or candace enters and misunderstand the situation
11418598
Did you skip their dialogue?
11418604
Yeah-yeah, in all sparring equipment inside restricted area with warnings of ongoing sparring match everywhere?
11418529
Well, I did rate the chapter tub'o'jello/10 during proofreading.
