Grace returned to her room, finding her roommates arguing again, this time about what Pony race was the best.
"Get it into your File System, and accept that Pegasi have the most optimized version of the Pony algorithm!" Lindie shouted as she elbowed Jane's side. 
"AW HECK NAW. Earth ponies are the best ones! They grow th' food that everypony eats. What do pegasai grow, cloud cakes?" Jane said, delivering a roundhouse kick that made Lindie crash into Elane. 
"Stop this, you ruffians! This is no time to bicker. Besides, it is quite obvious that Unicorns are the true gift of Ponykind," Elane said as she pushed Lindie back into Jane.

"Um, actually," Grace said quietly from the doorway, "Wouldn't it be the Alicorns? I mean, they do have the strength of the Earth ponies, the wings and style of Pegasi, and the magical capabilities of Unicorns." 
"Hmm... That does seem to be the most favorable outcome for the choice algorithm,” Lindie said. She adjusted her optimorphic glasses, reducing the tint and revealing her eyes. "So, what is the error report?" 

Grace sighed. "Well, I went and talked to the Doctor." 
"And dear?" Elane said, gently sitting Grace down on a nearby bed.
"Well, we talked, he did some things with a few strange gizmos, and he could at least tell me where my nightmares were coming from. He told me that they were the result of me suppressing certain painful memories, from the time I found out I was pregnant," Grace said.
"Ya mean with, whathisname?" Jane said as she sat down across from Grace and Elane.
"Yes, Dan," Grace said, looking down.
"Didn't he break the connection when the motherboard got too hot for his fans to cool?" Lindie said while scratching her head, arching an eyebrow at the death glare that Elane threw her way.
"Yes... It was shortly after I told him that he- he ran. Vanished," Grace said.
A moment after Grace stopped talking, there was a knock on the door.
“Come on in, it’s open!” Jane replied.
The door opened, revealing Colgate standing in the doorway.

"um. Grace?" the light blue Unicorn said, looking at her. "Ditzy wants to talk to you. She wants you to meet a new recruit, as you will be the first human she will be working with." 
"Okay. Tell her I will be there in two shakes of a newfoal tail," Grace said.
Colgate leaves, and Lindie stands up from her bed. "If you ever need a listening ear, I am always ready. Now, if you all please excuse me, I need to go and find Surprise. She had a few nice ideas for some Easer Eggs for this place, and I agreed to help with the coding.”

Grace said her see-you-soon’s after Lindie left, and headed to the main desk.
When she arrived, she found the desk empty, despite the fact that, according to the clock on her Biochip implant, it was still not late enough for Mrs. Whooves’ shift to end.
"Mrs. Whooves?" she asked, looking around. 
"Up here, dear!" Ditzy responded as her head popped up from under one of the roof tiles above the desk.
"Mrs. Whooves, what on God’s green Earth are you doing IN the roof?"
"Baking Muffins," Ditzy replied, dropping down and landing deftly on the chair. "It is sort of my secret sin... I can’t ever get enough of those delicious, heavenly masterpieces of baked perfection. So, I had an oven installed, just above my desk, so I could bake AND manage the desk at the same time!"
"Okay... then why didn’t you just put the oven under the desk?" Grace asked.
"Because I... I... Oh. I see what you mean," Ditzy blushed. 
Grace smiled. "I heard there would be a new Equestrian in the bureau, and you needed me to greet her or something?"
Ditzy nodded. "Yes, mostly because she will at first mostly be working with you, after your conversion. She is a foal care associate. 
Rainbow Spring is one of the best in the business. Oh, here she is now!"
Grace turned, to see a pink Unicorn, with a darker pink mane and lighter pink eyes. the hair was somewhat curly, but secured in a slightly ironic ponytail between her ears.
Grace could see the Unicorn’s cutiemark was a heart shaped balloon, as the mare trotted up to where Ditzy sat.
"Hi, I’m Rainbow Spring. Spring for short. I was asked to come here to help a ... 'Grace?'" 
Ditzy nodded. "Grace, meet Spring. Spring, meet Grace."
"How do you do?" Grace asked, holding out her hand.
"Charmed," Spring said. "Is there a place where we can talk in private?"
"The Second classroom is empty right now, you could use it!" Ditzy chimed in.
"That would be perfect. Thank you Miss...?" 
"Mrs. Ditzy Whooves. If you need anything else, just let me know!" Ditzy said with a grin.
"Will do. Come on Grace, we have much to talk about."
