"No, you want to round to 57 AFTER you do the math, its more accurate then rounding DURING the math."
"Hmm, I should've guessed that." Twilight responded, scratching her head with the eraser of her pencil. "Still, that doesn't explain how a magical bolt of energy could travel through a 6 inch concrete wall without suffering from any distortion."
"Well, what kind of magic was it, Twilight? Elemental magic reacts differently than ethereal or even arcane magic does."
"It was just some basic magic energy, I don't know what to categorize it as. It has a bit of energy similar to a fire spell, but its also arcane."
"Hmm. Interesting. Did you, perhaps, try focusing the bolt into a tighter... for lack of a better word, grouping?"
"Yes, i wanted to make sure it COULD go through the wall, I just wanted to measure the distortion."
"Well, then perhaps you focused it too hard. Maybe it did distort, but on a microscopic level while passing around the molecules in the wall."
"Wait, that would answer a few questions..." Twilight began scribbling on the paper, working out calculations in her head. "That's it!" She exclaimed. "Thank you, Gummy. How did you learn so much about experimental quantum mechanics?"
"Years of studying young Pinkie Pie. I have some interesting theories about how she does what she does."
"Care to share?"
"Oh, I'm sorry, Twilight. This is way over your head. I wouldn't expect you to understand." The alligator said, cleaning his monocle with a handkerchief. "Well, I believe our time is up. It was pleasant talking to you, Twilight. Take care." Gummy flopped out of the chair and clumsily waddled his way toward the door, leaving an awe-struck Twilight to watch him go. She looked down at her paper and frowned. She had gotten absolutely nowhere with his interview.

Gummy the most intelligent creature known to pony kind and they don't even know it.

I had to dig this out of my faves but here it is.
Derpy Hooves: The Absent-Minded Professor
They could have an interesting discussion together.

I was expecting the owl...this literally surprised me
3641890 then you'll be surprised for what i have planned for the owl
3642126
your going to make him stupid
3642205 um, no.
3642322
its sad that your going to do that really, he seems a whole lot smarter then Spike is, and your going to make him stupid. Oh well, it will be interesting...
3642366 seriously, i'm not making him stupid. Owlowiscios is too interesting of a character to do that to the guy.
Dangit, i had the Owliscious voice all up and speaking in my mind, then you surprise me and make me have to switch to british-voice mid-story.
3643348 oh my god. Thank you for giving me an idea for Angel's brother! THIS IS COMEDIC GOLD!
well, probably bronze or silver, but the idea is gold, depends on the execution, you know what I mean.

Alright, cool, howto make him sound smarter then gummy though?
3645494 im not saying anything more about it, you'll have to wait and see what I do with him
And now we know that Gummy is more of a philosopher than a physicist.
