Sugarcoat looked around from the rather crowded bench. "You have a nice park."
Lemon Zest nodded. "Yeah. Not much room for green in Crystal City."
"That's nothing!" said Pinkie. "We should show you Flutter—"
"Uh, maybe not." Rainbow Dash bit her lip. "Shy would probably appreciate her privacy right now."
Both Shadowbolts looked curious, but before either could ask, an older voice said, "Hello, girls."
Another said, "So nice to see you bridging the gap between the two schools."
Pinkie waved furiously. "Hi, Principal Celestia! Hi, Vice Principal Luna!"
"They're right there," said Sugarcoat. "They can see you."
"Yeah, but it's fun to wave."
That got a grudging nod out of Sugarcoat and at least a smile out of everyone else. "Have a lovely day," Celestia said, and the sisters continued their walk.
Dash watched them go. "Man, it's weird to see them out of school. I know they have lives, but I never really think about it."
Sugarcoat and Lemon traded a look. "You wanna say it, or should I?" said the latter.
"You'd say it more ridiculously—"
Pinkie's hand shot up. "I vote for Lemon Zest!"
Dash shrugged. "I just wanna know what you're leading up to."
Lemon looked to Sugarcoat. "Call that two and a half votes for me?" After Sugarcoat nodded, she turned to the others. "Okay, let me preface this by saying that I'm trying to be a better person, and I like to think I'm having a nonzero success rate there, but some things need to be said, and I've been holding this one back since the Friendship Games: Your principals are sixty percent leg by height. Their centers of mass are below their waists. The reason they constantly wear pantsuits is because any outfit that didn't have 'pant' right in the name couldn't hope to contain them. And at this point in the rant, I can safely assume that one or both of them is standing behind me." She turned to look.
Dean Cadence smiled. "Not quite."
"Huh." Lemon Zest considered her for a moment. "I'll be honest, I have no idea how boned I am right now."
"You? Not at all. Luna, next time we have drinks? We'll see."
