Lauren looked at the lanky twenty-something male before her, his face pock-marked as his shoulder-length blonde hair looked to be in desperate need of washing, and he was wearing a Twilight Sparkle T-shirt. Lauren set the pages onto the table before resting her head in her hands while giving a deep sigh. She then looks up and shakes her head. "Well, it looks like you put a lot of time into this script, but I'm no longer a part of the show. But if you send it to Studio B, I'm sure they'll be able to let you know about it." The young man's face brightened as he took back the script with a bright smile. "Thank you, Mrs. Faust!" Leaning back in her chair, she looked to her left to the curly-haired man next to her. "Craig? Can you send someone to get me a drink and some more antacids...? The baby's making me feel queasy again." Craig McCracken looked over and shook his head. "Are you sure it's not just the episode suggestions and fanart those 'bronies' keep bringing?" Lauren gave her husband a dark look before waving off the comment. "oh, they are not that bad, honestly. In fact, some of these are really good! Besides, have you forgotten the Powerpuff Girls comic book some fan mailed us?" The shudder from her husband confirmed that fact for her as she chuckled. "It's not funny!" he shouted angrily, then took a softer tone. "I'm sorry, it's just... They're just toddlers! What kind of person would have them... DO THAT!" Lauren just shook her head. "That's my point... Yes, I'm getting some weird fans, but at least we're not as bad off as poor Tabitha... That mob keeps following her asking her to 'Do Rarity's voice'!"
