“How about over there?” I said as I pointed to the left, over towards the jewelry.
“Alright,” Twilight agreed as we headed over towards the jewelry.
I was really surprised when we got over there by just how much jewelry this store had. If I hadn’t known that this was an antique store when I walked in, I swear I would’ve thought it was a jewelry store. They had almost every kind of jewelry imaginable; earrings, manepins, necklaces, rings, and brooches just to name a few.
“Wow, some of the diamonds in these earrings are older than Princess Celestia!” Twilight exclaimed as she looked at a display of earrings before turning her attention to a display of rings. “Ooh, and some of these rings were forged in the fires of Mount Moira!”
This went on for some time. Twilight seemed to want to look at every type of jewelry on display and comment about it with an interesting fact. I didn’t understand half the things she said, due to my limited knowledge of Equestria and its history, but I listened all the same. Regardless, it made me happy to see my marefriend so happily talking about something that fascinated her.
Eventually though, it got to the point were Twilight seemed to be talking to herself more than to me. She even started wandering away from the jewelry and didn’t seem to notice that I wasn’t following her. It was fine though, because I saw this as an opportunity to pick out a nice gift for my marefriend.
“Hmm, what to get?” I asked myself, unable to decide between the various pieces of jewelry. “The earrings and the were the first thing Twilight noticed, so those would probably be best. But those rings... Twilight would love one of those. Either way, I only have enough bits for one or the other.”
