Separation

Pinkie Pie looked up from the depths of the oven to find Twilight at the kitchen door, and she smiled. "Heya, Twilight! What's up?"

"Pinkie, I don't know how better to tell you this, so I'm just going to say it. I don't want you to spend time with me any more. If you see me around Ponyville, please don't make the effort to come up to me."

Pinkie twitched. "Twilight… what?"

"It's a small town, so it's probably inevitable that we'll see each other." Twilight's lips pursed sharply for an instant. "And stay out of my castle."

"What… Twilight, what's wrong?"

Backing away, "Thanks, Pinkie. For the good times. Bye." Wings clamped to her barrel, Twilight turned away.

Pinkie bounced over. "Twilight! Don't… What?"

Looking directly ahead, Twilight left the building.

On her left, Pinkie saw Rarity, looking mildly surprised.

"Rarity! Do you know—?"

"Ah. She told you, then."
