The four crusaders file out of the movie exiting the mall entrance instead of the outside exit. They had to meet Babs’ ride to the airport by the Nordstrom’s entrance. Rarity had to exchange something.
“That was an awesome movie! It was crazy how someone gets killed on video chat if someone types "I did it for the lulz" three times!” Babs goes for a high five from Scootaloo and receives nothing. “Why so silent, Scoots!? Were you…scared!?!?”
“NO WAY! I wasn’t scared. I LOVED looking at the smiley face.” Scootaloo acts cooly.
Holding onto each other shaking, Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle join into the conversation.
“We knew you’d love this here movie, Babs!” Apple Bloom says to her cousin. “Ah almost peed in mah pants!”
Scootaloo took this moment to make herself look slightly better and not scared. “Like a baby in a diaper!? Want me to get someone to change you!?” She laughs at her own joke and coughs it out at the end.
“No wonder this movie was in the discounted theatre! Who would sit through this and love it!?” Sweetie Belle shivers again. “I wouldn’t pay full price for this!”
“Well, Smiley wasn’t the only one in this theatre!” Babs defends her new favourite movie.
“As, as long as ya enjoyed yerself… is all that matters.” Apple Bloom hugs Babs separating the death grip hand hold she is sharing with Sweetie Belle.
“It’s not a second run theatre… just a discounted one.” comments Scootaloo. “Too bad you have to leave for camp. Thought you could’ve figured out a way to ditch! We could have helped you… but we somehow wrapped ourselves with the baby business.”
Suddenly Sweetie Belle gasps! “Isn’t that Spike!?!? AND SILVER SPOON!”
“YEAH! So that’s what she’s up to! Remember Diamond Tiara freaking out that Silver Spoon disappeared? HAHA she was really ditched to go on a date!” Scootaloo laughs.
“We can all follow Spike in a sec ya’ll… but first we have to hug Babs! Mah sis is here!” Apple Bloom says in a saddened voice while everyone “AWES”.
“I still wonder why RARITY had to tag along! Thought she has that spa thing with Fluttershy every Friday!” Scootaloo wonders getting into a side conversation with Sweetie Belle leaving the two cousins some time alone to say goodbye by themselves.
“How do you know their schedule!?” Sweetie Belle asks.
“Oh, don’t you look at that holographic calendar Twilight gave each household? It has all that info on everyone’s business… like, when Babs flight leaves and the trip we’re sending Dash and Fluttershy just got added this morning!” Scootaloo proudly says for being in the loop.
Sweetie Belle was impressed with that answer. “Speaking about baby diapers and Dash and Fluttershy… they’re walking towards us! They are soooooooo adorable. Holding hands and everything.” She gasps. “Awe how sweet! Dash just snuck a kiss!!!” She clasps her hands together smiling. “Ugh, how mushy!” was what she got in a muttered response by her friend.
“DASH!!!!!!!!” Scootaloo calls out waving. “OVER HERE!!!!!!!!!!! WHAT’S UP!!!!!!!!!!!!?????”
“Hey there, Squirt! We hitched a ride with A.J. over here! Don’t you remember? We have that flying practice to do!” Rainbow Dash gives Scootaloo a noogie on the head. “I didn’t have to read that holographic thingamajig to remember!”
“YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!” Scootaloo cheers.
“We’re going to hang out here… if that’s okay… till I have that spa appointment with Rarity and you two are going to fly with me there on your way to the field.” says Fluttershy just slightly above the mall traffic noise.
With a nod, Scootaloo goes “Yeah, that’s cool.”
“Guys! Ah am gonna go and drop Babs off at the airport with ma sis and Rarity.” Apple Bloom announces.
“Ummm, I don’t know about that, but I’m sure they’ll be okay with it.” Rainbow Dash starts to say. “I just sent A.J. a text saying we found you guys and to come here.
“Well they better be! Babs is mah fave cousin and Ah am gonna go and see her off!” Apple Bloom says as a no other way statement.
“I had a blast everyone! Group hug?” Babs asks. Everyone joined in. Even Rainbow Dash after a minute.
Rarity walks ahead of Apple Jack to meet the group. “We mustn’t be late! The plane won’t wait for one passenger!”
“Apple Bloom is going with you and if it’s okay, your sister is staying with us. We’re on our way to the food court to get some ice cream. I wish you could join us.” Fluttershy says in a hushed apologetic voice.
“We’ll cab it to the spa place to drop Fluttershy to hang out with you and Sweetie can watch us practice our moves!” Rainbow Dash was telling Rarity.
“Ummm, well… I…” thinks Rarity out loud.
“Rainbow, Scootaloo and I are going out for dinner with Twilight and Spike at this one restaurant later. You and Apple Jack can join us with Apple Bloom later and we can call Pinkie…” invites Fluttershy. “…if that’s alright with you and Apple Jack, of course…”
“I suppose it’s okay.” Rarity sighs excepting the fact her ‘before the spa’ plans were ruined. “Come on Apples, we must head out! Time is ticking!”
Rainbow Dash directs the other half of the group herding them to the promised ice cream. She holds Fluttershy’s hand proudly beaming the whole way. Fluttershy being bold in public, kisses her love. Getting to the food court, the two of them kiss again before splitting up. Rainbow Dash got everyone’s orders on the walk there and Fluttershy’s job was to seek a table with everyone else.
“Did you see those strollers at that one store? And how cute those stuffed animals clothes were? I’d play dress up with a new born and those stuffed animals… they can trade clothes whenever!” Sweetie Belle talks to Scootaloo, indirectly to Fluttershy as they sit down waiting for the ice cream to come their way.
“OH! Uhhh, yeah. Cute. Very cute. And the rest of the toys walking back look very educational and fun with all the colours and sounds and such.” Scootaloo catches on to what Sweetie Belles intentions were for the conversation topic.
“Rainbow and I used to play house as children.” Fluttershy speaks up. “Sorry for interrupting girls!”
“NO! It’s okay! Please tell us!” encourages Sweetie Belle with Scootaloo giving her undivided attention as well.
“Oh, okay.” continues Fluttershy. “I guess Rainbow and I don’t have to play house anymore.” She giggles. “Anyway, we really would pretend we had a baby. It was a Cabbage Patch Doll. Then we changed the doll to a Cabbage Patch Kid figuring since we were getting older the baby had to get older too!”
“That makes sense.” Sweetie Belle interacts with the story teller.
“Yes. And even though the dirty diapers weren’t real. Rainbow would always pretend to be sleeping so I had to change the baby!” Fluttershy smiles remembering. Scootaloo starts to laugh while imagining. “I would cook and Rainbow would have to feed the doll.” She feels a kiss on her cheek.
“Hey, Babe. Figured we’d share!” Rainbow Dash sets a 7 scoop mountain of different flavours in front of Fluttershy topped with whip cream and nuts… AND a cherry. Then seperates the other two ice cream orders balancing off her other hand and sets that down to the rightful eater. “What are we talking about?!”
“Why don’t you show us how you fed the baby doll when you were a kid, Dash! Pretend Fluttershy is that doll!” Scootaloo says in a daring voice.
“Okay, no problem!” Rainbow Dash takes a spoonful. “Open WIDE.” She says in the baby talk tone and waits for Fluttershy to cooperate. Fluttershy finally opens her mouth and Rainbow Dash shoves the spoon in the mouth. “GOOD GIRL!!! “ she leans over and makes a MWAH sound as she kisses Fluttershy on the lips as a reward.
“DASHIE!” Fluttershy exclaims. “YOU did NOT kiss that doll ever!”
“Well, I kiss you!” says Rainbow Dash. “AND if that doll was a real baby and ours I would!”
Fluttershy kisses Rainbow Dash as the teenagers “AWE” across from them. “I cannot WAIT till we have a little Dashie flying around!”
Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo are feeling happy thinking this looks real good! They couldn’t wait to tell Apple Bloom. Sweetie Belle’s phone beeps a few times.
“Fluttershy? Dash? Spike just text me… is it alright if I hang out with him when you guys all leave for the spa and practice? I’ll meet you for dinner! Since Spike has to go there too and all…”
“Yeah that’s cool. Saves us cab fare!” Rainbow Dash says getting lightly smacked on her arm.
“DASH-IE.” Fluttershy says in a scolding tone.
“What!” Rainbow Dash shrugs her shoulders. “It’s true.”
“We’ll just have to text your sister Sweetie Belle.” Fluttershy says more calmly.
“GREAT! Spike’s heading over to the food court now!” Sweetie Belle says happily. She shows Scootaloo the text that was sent to her from Spike before the offer to hang. It reads: “So now you know why I’ve been so quiet lately.”
Scootaloo shows Sweetie Belle her phone saying the same thing. She whispers to her friend “My phone was on vibe. You have fun with Spike and tease him about his secret lover like I would! I told him I had flying practice but I’d see him at dinner with the rest of you.”
While whispering and sharing their texts on their phones together, they squealed when they over heard, “Why don’t we play house tonight when we get home, Flutters!?” and “Okay, Dashie, this will be fun!”
