ONE OAKWOOD TABLE: 100 BITS On top of the table sat a fine tablecloth, two plates, two sets of silverware, and two wine glasses. A FINE TABLECLOTH, TWO PLATES, TWO SETS OF SILVERWARE, AND TWO WINE GLASSES: 75 BITS Twilight couldn’t help but smile as she playfully shook her head at the sight. She then heard the sound of someone coming down the stairs. Turning to look, she saw her UYBBFF (Unofficial Younger Brother Best Friend Forever) coming towards her wearing a very fine looking tuxedo. A VERY FINE LOOKING TUXEDO: 200 BITS Despite the fact that Spike was in what many would consider his teenage years, there were times like this that made Twilight wonder just how mature he really was. “Spike, I know you’re trying to make a great impression on your date tonight. But don’t you think that this is a little too much?” Spike replied as he straightened out a couple of forks on the table; “Too much? I say it’s not enough! I think a candle right in the center of the table would really set the mood.” “Spike,” Twilight replied, “You two are ordering pizza and you’re drinking Mountain Fury. I stand by my statement.” Spike finally turned towards her and said with absolute certainty, “Twilight, sometimes you gotta go for style points.” Twilight glanced over at the table and then said, “If you’re doing all of this just to try to impress her, you don’t have to. You two have known each other for years and she clearly knows that you’re a respectable young drake.” Before Twilight could elaborate any further, there was a knock at the door to the dining room. “You may enter.” Twilight spoke. The door opened and in came a teenage mare wearing a silk red dress. A SILK RED DRESS: 250 BITS (BUT WAS FREE OF CHARGE FOR THIS ONE TIME) Spike walked up to the mare and said, “You look great, Applebloom.” Applebloom blushed as she replied, “Aw shucks Spike. You’re lookin’ pretty nice yerself.” Twilight walked past them towards the door. “Don’t mind me; I’ve got places to be tonight. You two behave yourselves now!” After she left the castle, she saw a familiar white coated unicorn mare waiting for her. “Well? How did it go my dear?” Rarity asked. Twilight looked back at the castle as she responded, “I think those two are going to be just fine.” DOING WHAT YOU CAN TO MAKE TWO INDIVIDUALS YOU CARE ABOUT HAVE A GREAT NIGHT: PRICELESS Twilight turned back towards her marefriend and said, “So, what did you have in mind for us tonight?” Rarity gave Twilight a soft kiss on her cheek, “I figured we should do something rather simple tonight. A movie and coffee perhaps?” TWO MOVIE TICKETS AND TWO CUPS OF COFFEE: 15 BITS
