Bugze hate Mondays. Fortunately, he developed a specific set of methods for himself just incase it becomes one of those days. You can't live life within the Hive without the general grandbuggy "Monday" complaining, the root cause of everyling's disdain, without having ways to stop him from complaining. Honestly? Thinking about it, EVERYLING hated Monday's for that very reason.
Gong.
In fact, the Mondays where Grandbuggy failed to contain himself are always followed up by a crazy Tuesday. Tuesdays happen because of Mondays. Tuesday's are the Hiveminds SECOND least favorite day of the week. The crazy emitted just from those particular days developed a few screw looses in the Hive. Tuesdays be darned.
That thought suddenly triggered a set of flash backs, some of which he'd preferred to be left buried, locked, and then buried again. However, with just a glimpse, Bugze snickered a little, and briefly uttered a crying-like laughter right afterwards.
Gong.
Why the hay should there be school on Mondays? Bucking Mondays: It should Moonday! That way, everyone would be happy that there exists a day where they get to have some extra sleep. Sleep relieves stress. And less stress means people live longer! It's scientific fact! In fact, Tuesday's wouldn't have to be happen in the first place! Forget the ones who say cursing is bad. It also releases stress! Nightshade shall be reaching immortality at the rate she's going. Screw the ones who say video games are bad, games controls stress! ...well, minus a select few games.
Gong!
But stressful games doesn't have to be bad. Some of those games helped him develop an applicable game sense for stressful, real life situations. It saved his life a couple of times even. Ignoring the obnoxious communities, games are pretty beneficial!... So, when there's so many rage-filled teens shouting at their screens in one lobby, it's called "CoD".
Gong! Gong!
Unless it is Dark Souls with Jolly Copperation activated.
Bugze smacked himself.
He realized he's burning daylight with his internal rambling, of which Nimmy had been forced to listen to.
"Ah, Monday Attacks. I wondered when you'll come back, with all the crazy happening recently. ...Pretend you didn't see all that Nimmy."
HOW ON EQUIS COULD I?!.
"Gah! Not so loud in my head, Nimmy! I didn't get enough sleep last night, alright?! ...curse you, hallucinations," Bugze muttered. "Okay! Starting with method number one when experiencing terrible Mondays... Get busy!
And with that said, you walk out of the shack and into the apple orchard to get some work done...
IN THE APPLE ORCHARD A HOUR LATER
Mondays don't have to be bad. Hours spent alone in an enormous apple orchard... its a perfect place to practice your airbending.
Practice your airbending! Keep an eye out for plasmids. Maybe try to use the wind to boost your apple bucks or tear the apples from the trees.
As you've been working in the field knocking down apples, you've also multi-tasked by working on your airbending. You've been trying to make it so that a gust of wind would happen as soon as you hit a tree, adding an extra 'oof' that'll knock more apples out of the tree per hit, but this technique, (which you have decided to call 'Air Buck') only works very rarely. Most of the time nothing happens and one time (*WHAM*) you were accidentally air-blasted into another tree! As you get back up you think,
Ow... Probably not gonna use that technique anytime soo- woah!
Your thoughts are interrupted as you quickly dodge an acorn (did I/we forget to mention that you also got some dodge training in thanks to some angry Squirrels and their endless supply of nuts...)
Stupid squirrels and their stupid endless supply of nuts... oh well. Back to work.
ANOTHER HOUR OF WORK LATER
As you are finishing up the last barrel, you start to think...
Bugze decides that he better get to work he's had enough day's off as it is, and he doesn't want to push his luck. But plans to track down some of the Horde members in town later when he has the time. The info that Luna gave him last night bothers him. He should probably try to find out more about the Horde. Like their side of things, what their doing, what their plans for the future are, etc.
Luna, this is some hard work, but I've already had quite a few days off as it is. Also note to self, find the Horde's clubhouse and set things straight. I do NOT want to be the cause of a rebellion that results in a head-chopping spree...
You shudder as you remember from your history class (the one time you didn't skip or sleep through it) about the "Regime of Terror" in the Griffin Empire where hundreds (if not thousands) were beheaded in the aftermath of a rebellion...
After shaking off these dark thoughts, you lift up the last barrel of apples you have and begin to head back to the farm to drop them off (you learned to deliver the apples manually because when you try to teleport them, they often end up falling on your head).
As you leave the orchard and head to the barn, you run into...
you finally decide to go work when rainbow dash suddenly 'accidentally' crashes into you and offers to help 'nurse' you back to health after electrocuting you but finds out that you flew into a tree successfully knock all the apples out of the tree
*CRASH*
Or rather got crashed into by... the Fillyfooler. Rainbow Dash shakes her head from the crash before saying,
"Woah! Sorry about that B.S.T, I guess I should watch where I'm going during my Wonderblots training. Say, since I injured you and all, I should probably nurse you back to health. Plus I still owe for yesterday for accidentally shocking you... with... lighting?"
Rainbow stops her rant when she sees that you're no longer in front of her. She looks around confused as to where you are, before she makes a 'dang it' gesture and says,
"Shoot! I thought I had him that time! I guess that's what I get for daydreaming while flying. Even if that daydream is about what his wonderful body must look like under those clothes. His... wonderful... wonderful... wonderful..."
Rainbow's sentence starts to decline into a chant of 'wonderful' as she begins to drool and giggle from time to time. Meanwhile, you can be found embedded into one of the apple trees. You struggle to get out, but with one final push you manage to break free. You 'whoop' in victory, but you can't help but ask out loud,
"Huh... I wonder what hit me? Oh well, I need to report to the Apple's house to tell Applejack I'm done. I think that apple basket I was carrying went flying somewhere when I got hit. Eh, I'm sure she'll be fine with one missing bucket..."
And with that, you head towards the Apple's home and on your way there you see Rainbow standing where you got hit. You, being the curious bug that you are, decide to investigate. When you get over to her, you see that she is blushing heavily, drooling, chanting 'wonderful' over and over again while, and having this far out look in her eyes. You decide to try and get her attention by waving your hoof in front of her eyes and asking,
"Yo Rainbow... you okay?"
Suddenly, her wings pop straight out and she starts to drool and giggle even more! You just slowly walk away before making a full on sprint back to the Apples home while thinking,
I really hope that was just a Fillyfooler thing, cause that was just weird and disturbing! I swear I saw her wings pulsing! BUCKING PULSING!
After escaping the Fillyfooler, you're about to go do some more training in the orchard when you see...
As you go to take something of food, you find again a very familiar scene, as a black smoke come out from the kitchen.
"This can't be... Don't tell me it's that again"
As you go to the kitchen, you see Nightshade coming out from there, followed by Apple Bloom
"How the hell did you burn the kitchen again? Your only task was to put the Apple Juice in the glass... I take the eyes from you one second and the next moment the kitchen is in fire!" Say Apple Bloom
"But I swear I did that, really, I only tried to put the juice in the glass, but suddenly a fire come out" Say Nightshade
"Look at that, that is talent, I told you... Our filly is great" Commented Nightmare Moon in your head
You groan something as you see the smoke and then look and Nightshade and Apple Bloom
"What are you two doing there and not in class? It's Monday! And what exactly happened?" Asked Bugzee
"Well... Mr, Tennant, Nightshade wanted to cook you a breakfast... again... and somehow she convinced me. She was only supossed to put the Apple Juice from the jar to the glass as I was making everything else, but suddenly the kitchen was in fire and..." Answered Apple Bloom as Bugzee looked the fillies
"You say she only put the juice from the jar to the glass?" Asked Bugzee
Both fillies nodded with their heads
"But how?" Asked Bugzee
"It's what I say... The unicorn curse... No unicorn can cook, or be anywhere near a kitchen" Say Apple Bloom
"I can cook" Shouted Nightshade
"You can't" Say Apple Bloom
"I can" Say Nightshade
...
That continued during what seemed half a hour as Bugzee remember the last time and what they talked about the unicorn curse and your suspicion about how that evil purple unicorn treat the little dragon until Bugzee stoped them
"Okay... Leaving that aside... Why are you two exactly here and not in School?" Asked Bugzee
"It's a holyday" Say Nightshade smiling
"What?" Asked Bugzee
"Because yesterday was Nightmare Night, and after what happened last night with Princess Luna and Nightmare Moon, someponies did not sleep well, so Miss Cherilee give us today free" Say Apple Bloom
"I understand..." Say Bugzee as he look the black kitchen
"Maybe it could be good that she begin to learn with Fire instead of Earth, or this is going to happen again... Luna and Celestia have the same problem when they were fillies" Commented Nightmare Moon
Bugzee begin to think about what Nightmare Moon say and then look to Nightshade
"Well... At least this could help me... I help you both clean, and after we tell Applejack what happened, we are going to have the day for us" Say Bugzee to Nightshade
Black smoke come out from the kitchen!
"This can't be... Don't tell me it's that again!"
With that said, you rush into the kitchen and see Nightshade coming out from there, followed by Apple Bloom.
"How in tarnation did you burn the kitchen again? Your only task was to put the Apple Juice in the glass... I take mah eyes from you one second and the next moment the kitchen is on fire!" Says Apple Bloom.
"But I swear I did that, really, I only tried to put the juice in the glass, but suddenly a fire come out" Nightshade protests.
Such talent for destruction... That's my filly. commented Nightmare Moon in your head
You groan in annoyance as you look at Nightshade and Apple Bloom and ask,
"What are you two doing here and not in class? It's Monday! And what exactly happened?"
Apple Bloom explains,
"Well... Mr, Tennant, Nightshade wanted to cook you a breakfast... again... and somehow she convinced me. She was only supossed to put the Apple Juice from the jar to the glass as I was making everything else, but suddenly the kitchen was in fire and-"
"Wait a minute." you interrupt, "You say she was only pouring the juice from the jar to the glass?"
Both fillies nodded with their heads. Your jaw drops in shock (fortunately still held in place by face mask and scarf) and you say,
"How...?"
"It's what I always say... The unicorn curse... No unicorn can cook or be anywhere near a kitchen" Says Apple Bloom
"I can cook"! Shouted Nightshade.
"Ya can't!" Say Apple Bloom
"I can!" Say Nightshade
...
That continued during what seemed half a hour as you remember the last time they tried to cook until you snapped out of it to end their arguing,
"Okay. Leaving that aside, why are you two here and not in School?" you ask.
"It's a holiday" Says Nightshade smiling
"What?" you ask.
"Because yesterday was Nightmare Night, and after what happened last night with Princess Luna and Nightmare Moon, some ponies ain't sleeping too well, so Miss Cherilee give us today off." Say Apple Bloom
"That makes sense..." you say as you take another look at the black kitchen
Perhaps it would be best if she learned Fire instead of Earth lest this happens again... Luna and Celestia had the same problem when they were fillies Commented Nimmy.
Ignoring Nimmy, you look to Nightshade and say,
"Well... This actually came at a good time. Tell you what honey, I'll help you both clean and after we tell Applejack what happened, we're going to have the day off."
Nightshade smiles and jumps in excitement as she says,
"Thanks Daddy!"
Applebloom also gives you a thankful smile as she says,
"Thanks Mister Tennant, now let's clean this mess up before ma sister sees all this"
She gestures around the kitchen (which looks like a war field of ash and exploded food). Just as you're about to say something, you hear a very annoyed voice say behind you.
"See what?"
You gulp in and you begin to panic as you have a pretty good idea as to who is talking. Your guess is only proven more by the terrified looks of the fillies in front of you. So with a heavy heart, you slowly turn around and see...
When Bugze meet's up with Applejack she ask's him if he's alright after being shocked by Dash, and lectures him about running off like that while he's injured, and that he should take more care of himself. All while blushing.
Reference this bit from The Simpsons
BURNS: We don't have to be adversaries, Homer. We both want a fair union contract.
HOMER: (thinking) Why is Mr. Burns being so nice to me?
BURNS: And if you scratch my back, I'll scratch yours.
HOMER: (thinking) Wait a minute. Is he coming onto me?
BURNS: I mean, if I should slip something into your pocket, what's the harm?
HOMER: (thinking) Oh my God! He is coming onto me!
BURNS: After all, negotiations make strange bedfellows. (winks)
HOMER: (thinking) Aah!
By having Applejack request help with something, but phrases it so poorly that Bugze thinks she's trying to hit on him which scares him into taking Nightshade to the spa.
A very mad Applejack. You gulp in fear a little bit before you say
"Oh....Hi Applejack, what are you doing here?"
She gives you a deadpanned look as she says
"I live here."
You mentally facehoof at that before you say,
"Oh...right. Well I'm just gonna-"
Applejack interrupts your statement as she says
"What yall are gonna do is clean o this mess, and after that your gonna help fix something for me."
You shake your head as you say
"Sorry boss, I'll clean the kitchen but nothing else."
Applejack just sighs before she says
"Now Mistah Tennant, y'all one of my farmhoofs and you've had quite a few vacation days..."
Oh...
"But I'm willing to overlook that..."
Okay, that's good.
"But if I scratch your back, ya hafta scratch mine..."
Wait a minute... Is she hitting on me?
"I think my bed upstairs is making creaking noise so I need you to help me check..." she says with a wink.
Oh Luna... She is coming on to me! Although I wouldn't mind her showing me why it's called the cowfilly pos- NO! BAD BUG!
"Oh, I-I'd love to but... I... have... to... take Nightshade into town for that... thing! Yeah!"
With that, you quickly grab Nightshade and run out of the house. Applejack stands there confused for a few moments before her eye twitches shut causing her to put a hoof on it as she says,
"Shoot! Ah knew I shouldn't have drank that much coffee! Now how am I supposed to fix that bed?"
ONE RUN LATER
After running (with Nightshade in hoof) away from the farm and into Ponyville, you get lost. Apparently the coupon didn't have a map leading you towards the Spa so you use the more effective proven method of navigation known to Pony kind...
-you ask around town for directions.
After several minutes of asking (and several more of getting even more lost) you found the spa. You smile in happiness, Nightshade jumps up and down in excitement from her first trip to the spa, and you are both about to walk into the spa...
Take one of Zecora's transformation potions from your Potion Sash to turn yourself and Nightshade into unicorns and go to spa with Nightshade, but run into Rarity and Fluttershy in the waiting room. Get into a conversation (mainly involving Rarity, Fluttershy, and Nightshade) talking about what the spa is like and how great it is.
Buck! you think as you stop. Stupid bug! Spas require you take your clothes off which wouldn't be too bad (ponies don't wear clothes anyway) except for the fact that you're a changeling and Nightshade's a alicorn!
You're about to tell Nightshade the bad news, when you remember something else,
Stupider bug! You have those potions from Zecora, remember?!
You facehoof, causing Nightshade to look at you funny, as you think,
Why didn't I think of using those potions before!?
Sighing at your stupidity, you take out two transformation potions and as you hoof one to Nightshade you say,
"Honey, we can't go inside as ourselves for... reasons so we need to drink these potions that Zecora made for us, okay?"
She nods at your explanation, and you both chug down the potions at the same time. You see a flash come from under Nightshade's vest, so you guess that made her wings disappear. You, however, feel a tingling sensation throughout your body, so you guess it worked (2 Transformation potions remaining). With a sigh, you and Nightshade walk in and go right up to the front desk,
"Hey Aloe." you greet.
"Oh, well if it isn't the Big Daddy of the Mummy. What brings you here handsome?" Aloe flirts.
"Hehhe. so you heard about that huh?" you chuckle nervously.
"Everypony knows about the Big Daddy attacking Princess Luna after he found her with his kid. I just put two and two together."
You cough awkwardly and say,
"Well anyway, I'm here to use that free father-daughter coupon you and Lotus gave me at Pinkie's party."
"Oooooh, and here I thought you came all this way just to see me in my Nightmare Night costume, which I wouldn't mind by the way."Aloe teases.
Blood spurts out of your nose causing Aloe to giggle.
"Hahhahah, you are too much fun to mess with Mister Tennant, anyway I'll take your coupon."
You give the coupon to her as Nightshade hoofs you some napkins to clean off your noseblood.
"Thank you, Lotus will be here shortly to discuss your relaxation plan for today. Which might include a private massage from me..." she says as she punctuates it with a wink.
More blood spurts out of your nose making Aloe giggle and Nightshade roll her eyes as she gets some more napkins.
"Now please wait in the waiting room for your turn."
"Th... thank you" you stutter as you wipe the noseblood off and go into the waiting room with Nightshade.
"The nerve of some ponies, flirting like that in front of a foal!"
You look over in surprise to see both Rarity and Fluttershy sitting in the waiting room!
"Fluttershy!"
As soon as Nightshade saw Fluttershy, she ran over to her and started to talk about animals with the shy pegasus. You chuckle at her antics, and decide to have a chat with Rarity,
"Hey Rarity! I haven't talked to you since the Hydra incident. How have you've been?"
"Oh just fine Mister Tennant. Business has been booming lately thanks to my latest cloths line, hoods!"
"Hoods?" you ask in confusion.
"Oh yes, ever since that dreadful Offender came back from the dead, hoods have been the highest market value in ages! And while I may be dedicated to bringing that scoundrel to justice, I must thank him for starting this fashion spread!"
"Hehehhe yeah..." you chuckle nervously, "So what do you have against Aloe?"
Rarity rolls her eyes and says with a hint of snobbish whining,
"It's not her I dislike, it's the way she acts. A proper lady would never just 'flaunt her stuff'. She is always flirting with every stallion who comes into town and it just frustrates me to no end."
You give her a deadpan look as you comment,
"She steals all the stallions from you, doesn't she?"
This startles the fashionista,
"Wha... why I never... No just... Is it that obvious?"
"If I noticed it, then yes."
"It's just... what does she have that I don't? I'm refined, classy, a lady, moderately successful, and I keep in shape! Why do the stallions always go to her but not me?"
You look over to Fluttershy and Nightshade... to see that they're too into their conversation to notice Rarity's plight. With a sigh you try and help her... even thought you're no love doctor,
"I think... that those stallions just weren't interested in a classy person like yourself. They just wanted a mare who was free-spirited, wild, and... easy? Not a classy lady."
"Should I act like her then?" Rarity asks,
"No no no no no no!" you quickly respond before any dirty thoughts could enter your mind, "You just need to find a stallion who's interested in classy ponies. Or ones who want a committed relationship."
"I... I think your right Mister Tennant. i just need to find the right stallion for me."
You then get flashbacks to Nightmare Night and how Spike was staring at Rarity the whole night. Even when the spa twins came in to sing. You smile and say,
"Yeah, who knows. You perfect match might be a little more... scalier then you thought he would be..."
"What do you me-"
"Miss Rarity. Miss Fluttershy. You're treatments are ready." Aloe announces and gives a quick wink to you before she walks away with the two mares. As they walk away, you can't help but think,
Huh... I think I might be able to add Matchmaker to my list of skills if I play my cards right and get those two love birds together. Who knows? Maybe I can get those two fillyfoolers together so they'll be too... busy to come after me!
After a few more moments of waiting, Lotus approaches you and says,
"Okay Mister Tennant and Nightshade, your relaxation is waiting. Mister Tennant, you'll be having a mud bath followed up by a massage of your choosing, while sweet little Nightshade here will be with one of our other workers for a hooficure, a facial, and then a filly massage. Is that alright with you sir?"
You and Nightshade nod and say yes.
"Okay, I'll take your clothes and we'll guide you to the proper rooms."
You both comply and as Nightshade is being taken to her hooficure, you quickly say,
When Bugze and Nightshade get their massages,
Bugze: "Oh, mr/mrs massage-pony, please go easy on my daughter there."
Nightshade: "Daaddddy. I don't hurt that easy."
Bugze: "That's because if I anypony tries, I hurt them even more"
(Cue awwws from Aloe, Lotus, and possible other spa patrons.
"Oh, tell whoever is treating my daughter to please go easy on her."
Nightshade lets out a annoyed groan as she says,
"Daaddddy. I don't hurt that easy."
You chuckle a little bit as your eyes flash orange momentarily as you say,
"That's because if I anypony tries, *snap* I hurt them even more."
Suddenly, every mare in the waiting room and Lotus and Aloe (who just got back) say,
"Awwwwww"
You blush slightly at the awws, but you shake it off as you are lead to the mud room.
IN THE MUD ROOM
Lotus leads you into a huge room filled with mud pits. Mud pits that look so extremely comfortable that you just want to cannon ball into them, but there's something strange about this, you and Lotus are the only ones in here. You look around in confusion and ask,
"Uh Lotus, wheres everypony else?"
Lotus giggles slightly as she says,
Aloe uses her limited earthbending for a new "mud massage" technique
"I can see where you get the confusion. You see, this is our second mud room, our first one if full due to our new "mud massage" treatment."
"Mud massage?" you ask in confusion,
"It's when Aloe uses her limited Earth Manipulation to move the mud around our clients' bodies. Now I'll be back in about a hour or two so I can take you to the massage room. Enjoy your stay. Oh and I heard about your sunlight problem, so don't worry. I've taken the liberty of blocking all the windows in this room, have fun and relax!"
And with that she leaves, while all you can do is keep your jaw from hitting the floor as you think,
THIS IS THE SECOND MUD ROOM! THEY HAVE TWO, AND THE OTHER ONE IS FULL! BUT THIS PLACE IS HUGE!
You just shake off the strangeness of it all as you hop into the nearest mud bath.
splat
And. You. Feel. GREAT!
You've never felt this relaxed in so long. You can literally feel the stress leaving you. As you're soaking up this holy feeling (and most likely fall asleep), you hear...
While you relax (Let's say you're in the mud pit) Nimmy starts talking to you
N: So, do you wish me to answer any of your questions at the moment?
You: I…well…
N: I am ready and willing
You: How about we do this later tonight, I’m too relaxed right now to be thinking about any life altering revelations, last night had so many.
N: Perhaps you are right, this location is rather comforting. Even I feel at ease…
You: You can say that again Nimmy
N: STOP CALLING ME THAT!!!
You chuckle
You: Aww come on, why not?
N: It is demeaning and childish sounding.
You: Well I don’t want to keep calling you Nightmare Moon all the time, it just doesn’t roll off the tongue that well.
N: But it is my name, a name that still inspires fear to this day.
You: Ya, but you’re not exactly Nightmare Moon anymore are you?
N: How so?
You: Well, when you and Luna were together you were Nightmare Moon, but now that you’ve been separated from her, you’re your own being.
N: …I suppose that is true…
You: so you should have your own Identity, you don’t have to keep living in the shadow of when you were Nightmare Moon…even if technically you are the shadow of Nightmare Moon…
N: But it is all I’ve had, or known…
You: Doesn’t mean you can’t change now.
N: Then what moniker would you have me take?
You: Oh…well…hmmm…OK, trying to come up with a name on the spot is kinda hard.
N: It must be a name that suits me. One of respect and royalty. I will not be titled like a commoner or a child
You: Okay okay, let me think
You start thinking about what you can possible name her. I mean, she is the bucking boogey mare, even though your mental image of her has changed after seeing that well toned body that-NO BAD BUG!-
Still, she is dark and brooding, and more than a little violent, yet you could say the same about most of the Mares you’ve met over the last year and a half. Maybe go for an Alicorn Angle…
Well there is Celestia, Luna, and Cadance…What do all those names have in common?
Well they do all end in A, if you consider Cadance’s real name Cadenza, guess that’s a pre-requisite for Alicorn Names…maybe if you combined all their names?
N: Well?
You: Umm…how about…Cel…Lun…Za?
N: …Celunza? Really?
You: Umm… hang on
You swear you just had something, it sounds almost right, but what could be missing?
So, do you wish for me to answer any of your questions at the moment?
I…well…
I am ready and willing.
How about we do this later tonight, I’m too relaxed right now to be thinking about any life altering revelations, last night had so many...
Perhaps you are right. This location is rather comforting. Even I feel at ease…
You can say that again Nimmy.
STOP CALLING ME THAT!!!
You chuckle,
Aww come on, why not?
It is demeaning and childish sounding.
Well I don’t want to keep calling you Nightmare Moon all the time, it just doesn't roll off the tongue that well...
But it is my name, a name that still inspires fear to this day.
Ya, but you’re not exactly Nightmare Moon anymore are you?
How so?
Well, when you and Luna were together you were Nightmare Moon, but now that you've been separated from her, you’re your own being.
I suppose that is true…
So you should have your own Identity, you don’t have to keep living in the shadow of when you were Nightmare Moon…even if technically you are the shadow of Nightmare Moon…
But it is all I've had, or known…
Doesn't mean you can’t change now.
Then what moniker would you have me take?
Oh… well… hmmm… OK, trying to come up with a name on the spot is kinda hard.
It must be a name that suits me. One of respect and royalty. I will not be titled like a commoner or a child.
Okay okay, let me think...
You start thinking about what you can possible name her.
I mean, she is still the bucking boogey mare, even if my mental image of her has changed after seeing that well-toned body with those moon-shaped flan-NO BAD BU-
GONG
Ow... Okay, I deserved that, anyway still, she is dark and brooding, and more than a little violent, yet I could say the same about most of the Mares I’ve met over the last year and a half. Maybe I should go for an Alicorn Angle… Well there is Celestia, Luna, and Cadance…What do all those names have in common? Well two out of three do all end in A, and if I consider Cadance’s real name Cadenza, then I guess that’s a pre-requisite for Alicorn Names…maybe if I combined all their names?
Well?
Umm… how about… Cel… Lun… Za?
A few moments of awkward silence pass.
Celunza? Really? Nimmy says in an annoyed deadpan.
Umm… hang on...
You swear you just had something, it sounds almost right, but what could be missing?
"Ah buck it. I'll think of something later." you say to yourself as you decide to relax some more in the mud bath.
As you begin to relax even more so (which you didn't even think was possible), you get a sudden thought...
well Bugz is proably going to ask nimmy why he went 'tailed beast mode' on several occasions when he drew on her power.
B: hey nimmy, why was it those times I drew on your power, I effectivly went into a 'tailed beast mode.'
N: Took you long enough to ask... It drew on your memories to find a suitable form, and it found two in perticulor. the Kyubbie, and the Satsui no Hado...
B: two separate sources of pure hatred... no wonder I went berserk...
bugz then thinks about thos two sources ultimate techniques. The Bijudama, and the Shun Goku Satsui
B: does that mean...
N: yes, but if you tried either without drawing on at least three 'tails' of power, the backlash would most likely kill you, and by extension, me...
Hey Nimmy, why was it those times I drew on your power and used that "Nightmare Cloak", I went into what was basically a 'tailed beast mode?'
It took you long enough to ask... My power drew on your memories to find a suitable form, and it found a few in those foreign picture books you like to read...
A few separate sources of pure hatred... No wonder I went berserk... Wait, does that mean-
While it could be possible to channel my energy into attacks from your shows and series, but trying to use more powerful attacks without the sufficient amount of outlets (which you refer to as "tails") would result in a fatal backlash that would most likely kill you and, by extension, me...
You nod your head and are about to ask her another question, when you suddenly feel a wave of relaxation. You sigh in happiness, but that soon ends when she says...
S: Perhaps it wouldn’t be wise to let your guard down completely, that sultry masseuse may corner you whilst our daughter is in the other room.
You: Nah, she wouldn’t do that, Night Shade is here she wouldn’t…
Aloe: Hello Mr. Tennant (whispers in your ear)
Blood shoots out your nose
You: She would…
Aloe: Are you ready for your personal deep tissue massage? (winks at you)
You: Gulp…
Aloe: Then follow me (giggles and sways her hips as she walks into the next room)
You start sweating bullets in stress
You: Oh man, oh man oh man oh man! I gotta keep it together, KEEP IT TOGETHER!
Aloe: Oh and be sure to leave all your clothes by the door, you won’t be needing them… (seductively)
You: Buck!
Perhaps it wouldn’t be wise to let your guard down completely, that sultry masseuse may corner you whilst our daughter is in the other room.
Nah, she wouldn’t do that. Even with all her flirting, I don't think she's the type to do a stallion while his daughter is still-
Hello Mr. Tennant... you hear whispered in your ear.
You yelp and jump out of the mud bath startled, dash into the shower, and rinse off the mud with a cold shower, never taking your eyes off Aloe. As you smirk in victory when you see Aloe pout, you think,
Okay bug, remember your saving it for marriage, just remember that and you'll be fine... and all you need to do is hope she's just escorting you to the massage room- Wait, I thought Lotus was supposed to-
"ALOE! WHAT DID I TELL YOU ABOUT HARASSING OUR COSTUMERS!"
You jump in surprise as you see Aloe run out of the room giggling as an angry Lotus walks into the room.
"AND YOU STILL HAVE CUSTOMERS TO MUD MASSAGE!!!" Lotus yells after her sister before she sighs, turns to you, and says,
"Sorry about that mister Tennant, you know how... forceful my sister can be."
You chuckle in awkwardness as you say,
"Yeah... so massage room right?"
Lotus nods her head and motions you to follow her. As you follow her to the massage room, you begin to walk by some steam rooms, but one of them suddenly opens and someling pulls you in! You didn't hear a thing but you're pretty sure the door closed so Lotus probably doesn't know you're missing. You get off from the floor and you look around in panic as you say,
"Hey! Who did that!?"
You just hear someling giggle, which causes you to panic even more. You then start to say,
"Who's there! I mean it, I know how to kick butt, just ask... somepony I beat up... which is alot... this is definitely the truth!"
You just hear another giggle... from right behind you! You slowly turn around in terror and see-
What do you do?
