Sweetie Belle went over to her idea list, and carefully wrote down "Prompt one: Waiting Time".

Then she sat and thought. There were multiple meanings of the word "waiting", weren't there? She started writing.





There were worse things than this, Flash Sentry reminded himself. Money is money, and he certainly needed it after what had happened. And it wasn't like anywhere in Canterlot would be willing to hire him now. Still...

He couldn't drag this out any longer, though. His new boss was glancing in his direction and tapping one hoof impatiently. He slung on the apron and trotted over to the nearest table.

"My name is Flash Sentry, and I'll be your server. What can I do for you?"

"Blueberry waffles!"

He wrote it down on his pad.

"And to drink?"

At least this should be a simple order.

"Orange juice! And the hashbrowns, a small fruit salad, some rolls..."

Flash sighed and kept writing as the customer went on and on. It was going to be a long day.
