//------------------------------// // The Honeymooners Return // Story: Equestrian Fanfiction // by Lise //------------------------------// Finally Back! Sorry if this took a bit longer than expected, but we got invited to a few other places after our honeymoon and just couldn’t say no. (Well I couldn’t. CodeFilly was a bit furious at me, but the visits turned out much better than we feared.) Initially we were nervous that being aethernet celebrities (turns out that’s a thing) might be too intense, but it ended up being really fun! Let me tell you, MC clubs are like cool book clubs that are are frequented by non-geeks that act like geeks. It was simply the best! You won’t believe how much we got asked about you all! I even had to make some things up. (also there are a number of shipping pools going on. I put ten bits on @Grumpy @TrueSparle, so… I’m not saying anything, but… O :) ) How have things been here? (After a point I just stopped going online.) MightyDragon Well, if I were a geeky stallion I’d find it fun as well. Most of the time I got to spend with drunk depressed mares telling me how lucky I was. Although, there were a few interesting ones with which we agreed to keep in touch. I must admit, it’s almost shocking how few stallions were in the clubs. In one it was mare central. Well, almost. The club president had brought her coltfriend along to the envy of everypony else. Things were much more different in the coastal areas. CodeFilly Hey, hey, you two :D You didn’t miss a thing. Well, maybe a few things. You still hosting that wild party at the convention, right? Twilight and Blueblood are going to model for the audience! It will be great! :D HopHop Wait, what? Twilight modelling? That I must see! I’m very curious to see if she can pull it off. CodeFilly @CodeFilly: Totally. They’ll even be wearing socks. I would too, but socks aren’t at all aligned with my chakras and I don’t want to cause an astral disturbance at with so many crystals around. @InItForTheShipping: Can I, like, come a few days earlier to meditate there so that I get attuned with everything? Tree @Tree: never change :) I’ll pass to see you before the event to catch up. Feels like ages since we last talked. Brush @CodeFilly: Oh we all are curious. I won’t lie, I’ll probably take a few pictures… for aesthetic purposes O:) Tell me, how was the honeymoon? I’m starting to consider locations (even if somepony beside me is blushing and levitating cushions at me to stop) and I’d like to find nothing but the best. I considered renting a coral atoll, but it takes ages to get there, and sea travel isn’t for everypony. Oh, and just so you know, money is no option. RRBB @RRBB: We found it ideal to relax and read. If you’re more the partypony there are other options. I wouldn’t recommend burning horse, though. That’s way too wild for most. (Yes, I was tricked into going there once and had a pretty boring time. The night shows were nice, though.) CodeFilly @RRBB: How about we all go somewhere for graduation? Pretty much everyone has a special somepony and it will be cool to be alone yet together at the same time, right? I prefer something with clouds, of course, but am cool with pretty much anything (unless Plust has something against). Maybe someplace with scuba diving? YouKnowWho I know the best place you could go for your prom/honeymoon :D trust me, you’ll love it. (WaterBottle had a taste and has been PMing me for more.) Seriously, I know a great place, but it might be a bit difficult to achieve. There are some bureaucratic matters involved, though. @InItForTheShipping, what do you think? LightSparkle @ LightSparkle: Not on your life ;) @RRBB: I think I might have something in mind. You’ll still an okay from your parents (even if technically you’d be your own ponies by then). It’s underwater crystal cave that has a large pool of water for swimming. Think of it as a beach, tropical escape, and crystal cave all in one. You’ll have to bring your own tents, if that’s okay. Part of the beauty is that it hasn’t been touched by technology. (Aethernet reception is perfect, though.) InItForTheShipping @CodeFilly: puppy eyes MightyDragon I am NOT taking you to an underwater cave two days after the end of our extended honeymoon! The university was gracious enough to give me a bit more leave, but I doubt they’d be happy if I went on leave again. Besides, don’t you have work to do anyway?! CodeFilly But, but… :~( can’t we go just for a week? I can take Flurry with me? I’m sure the prince wouldn’t mind. He’s very understanding. Also, since we’re technically in charge of the convention we might need to recharge out mana before going there, right? MightyDragon @MightyDragon, @CodeFilly: That’s actually not a bad idea! We could go spend a relaxing weekend there! It’s been too long since I saw my niece :) @TrueSparkle, @EverSpike: You who want to tag along? It’ll be good for you! DarkSparkle @CodeFilly, @MightyDragon: Welcome back. I apologize for the state of the site, but a number of things happened while you were away, both here and in the real world. Fortunately everything is handled for the most part. Unfortunately, we had to change the backend quite a bit. HopHop had some interesting ideas, and I must admit, she writes incredibly clean. What I wouldn't give for my coworkers to have a tenth of her skill. On another note, LyraHands is in Canterlot, so it might be a good idea for you talk to her. I'm sure she'll be able to bring you up to speed faster than anypony here. The TechNightling @LyraHands, @CodeFilly, @MightyDragon, @DarkSparkle: class reunion! I'll see how many of the girls and guys I could get for a Canterlot meetup :) HopHop @HopHop: I’ll have to pass. @all: My mother is scheduled for surgery in three days. I might not make it to the convention. I'm sorry. LyraHands
