Know your mare, know your mare, know your mare...
The young unicorn presented on center stage presented herself much more as an alien to the spotlights and echoing voices through the room as she stood there waiting. Then again, very few ever seemed at home in her position.
Saff... Saffreen...?
"Saffron Masala."
...Is that some kind of tree?
"It's -uhhh- how do you say? Spice mix made in my homeland."
...I think she's lying.
"No-no-no. Certainly no lie; I assure you. It is something we make where I am from. Along with cumin, coriander, cassia, turmeric--"
She's speaking in tongues!
Can we move on...?
Sure.
Sapphire Mesa...
"It is Saffron Masala."
Uses only the "rarest" of "spices"...
You can't see, but we're giving air quotes...
Well, Cap'n is... He's the only one with fingers.
"What are 'fingers'? And our spices are well maintained and crafted; but they are certainly not a rarity."
Hakuna Matata...
Serves chicken...
"Ehhh... I cannot recall the last chicken we had as a guest... But we did have one or two coops flock in back home."
Vic Mignogna...
"Who is Vic Mignogna?"
Guarantees her food will be great...
"That I do! I am thankful for your free advertisement."
...But you'll--
"Truly, it has been a long road in Canterlot. It is only recently that our little store has started to garner the smallest of attention. All thanks goes to our two dearest and truest friends who aided us in our time of need. It is my understanding that your show receives many onlookers; so to have you promote a kind word to our store? It is uplifting to say the very least. Thank you."
...Uhhh...
Hm...
Yeah... Totally what we're doing...
...We weren't going to say anything about your food giving people the runs...
"Oh! Hah! Such a prankster you are. That would be very rude."
Yeah...
...So...
You all know Saffron Masala now...
A-And! And... Her lovely restaurant...
"Thank you once again. You will all be welcomed as honored guests at the Tasty Treat. I promise you," joyful with the outcome of this unpaid promotion, the unicorn pranced off stage as happy as could be.
...Cap'n, I don't want the runs.
We'll grin and bear it...
I'm pretty sure she just did some sort of judo reversal on us...

Saffron just outwitted the four greatest trickster minds of all time. That takes some serious skills.
C-C-C-COMBO BREAKER!
That Saffron, though. Pipsqueak was funny, though I've yet to try curry myself.
Mmmmm, Indian food.
That was hilarious!
7305076 Did the chapter get slapped? Or did the fact they actually made that stupid joke I offhandedly brushed off as impossible into the actual outcome bitchslap them?
is this book still going?
It doesn't give them the runs, it gives them the trots!

Indeed it is. After a lifetime and a half.
