The rest of Saturday afternoon went by pretty fast, with Candy Burn making some more food for dinner and the girls just otherwise getting to know Celestia and Luna, and them learning about things of the human world. Floriba took an interest in the botany and garden in their backyard, Twill Weave took an interest in the mythology and spirits, Candy Burn took an interest in cooking and (strangly) video games, and Taissy took and interest in coding and machines. As they were eating dinner, they talked. Spike was already asleep.
"So, are you 4 ready?" Celestia asked.
"Yeah," Floriba said.
"Definitely," Taissy said.
"Kinda," Candy Burn said.
"I guess," Twill Weave said.
"You nervous?" Luna asked. Candy Burn and Twill Weave nodded.
"I haven't been alive for too long," Twill Weave said. "There's supposed to be a lot of people there, right?"
"Ah, don't worry," Celestia said. "Yes, there are a lot of people, but the classes themselves are nice."
"How many people in each?" Candy Burn asked.
"The smallest class has 12 students in it, and the largest has 20," Luna said. "Don't worry, you can hang out with Sunset Shimmer and her friends."
"Yeah, that's true," Floriba said. "Although I suppose it'd be kind of awkward at parts. After all, we are their children from a parallel universe."
"Yeah, but that's kind of cool, too," Luna said. "A parallel universe. What's it like over there?"
"Well, like we mentioned earlier, you two are the rulers of Equestria," Taissy said. "You're both alicorns, and friends with Twilight and the other princess, Cadence."
"Alicorns were the one's with both wings and a horn?" Celestia asked.
"Yeah," Floriba said.
"And Cadence is a princess too?" Luna asked. When Twill Weave nodded, Luna asked "What is she the ruler of?"
"She's the Princess of Love," Candy Burn said.
"Must be exiting, being able to use magic," Luna said. "And being able to fly."
"It is rather exiting," Taissy said.
"Are you able to time travel?" Celestia said.
"It's been done before, it's just really hard to and might be illegal," Candy Burn said. "The only time I know that it was used, it was used to almost destroy Equestria."
"Do I want to ask about that?" Luna asked.
"Not really," Floriba said. She yawned and checked the clock. "I'm sorry, I'm getting tiered already." Celestia glanced at the clock too.
"Yeah, you should probably go to sleep soon," she said. "It's a school night, and you're going to want to get up early-ish."
"Yeah, we'll need schedules and whatnot," Twill Weave. "We have backpacks and notebooks and whatnot, right?" Luna nodded.
"Those are important," she said. "Anyway, I'm turning in." As she stood up, Candy Burn nodded.
"That's a good idea," she said. As the other girls agreed and got up, Celestia smiled.
How were we so fortunate to meet these 4? she wondered as she followed them upstairs.
