Epilogue

“You know, back in my day, they didn’t have airplanes. Did I ever tell you that?”

Ditzy sighs heavily and snags the little bottle of spirits from your hoof. “Yes. Five times in fact.”

“I just can’t get over it, you know? I got to see these things get invented.”

You feel yourself smiling from ear to ear as you look out your window.

“It’s like... If you went back all those years ago and said to the Princess that you want to build a giant metal and fiberglass bird, get a number of pegasi to haul it into the sky and glide all the way to your destination, she would have locked you up and declared you mentally insane,” you say with a laugh. “But now we do it. Earth ponies are in the cockpit, controlling how the thing moves and a team of pegasi work the air currents, getting on and off the plane in shifts. This is amazing!”

You try to get the bottle from her, but Ditzy pulls it away. “Yes Jack, but we still have two hours ahead of us before we land in Summerset keys and you’re on your fifth bottle of this stuff,” she says before downing the last of it. “And it’s expensive. Seriously, if I catch you grabbing another, I’ll walk out of the terminal and leave you with the bill.”

“Come on angel! We’re on vacation!” Just the thought makes you giggle and bounce in your seat. “I’m on vaaaacation~ I’m on vaaaacation~” You sing-song.

“I swear, I will hit you.” You can see the faintest smile on her lips.

“You can’t hit me, I’m on vacation.”

“Oh don’t tempt me.”

You lean in real close.

“Don’t tempt me.”

She tries to keep a serious face, but a quick kiss on the nose leaves her giggling and shaking her head.

“I know you’re happy Jack, but wait to celebrate when we’re off the plane, okay?”

“Oh so you don’t want to celebrate in the restroom when we reach cruising altitude like we talked about?”

Ditzy’s face goes bright red and she slaps you across the shoulder.

“Ahh! Stewardess! She hit while I’m on vacation!”

The whole thing makes you start to laugh and soon Ditzy joins in. “Look at us. Hard to believe,” you say whimsically.

“We deserve it,” she says with a huff. “I especially after dealing with you for so long.”

“You loved it.”

She shakes her head and leans back in her seat to get comfortable. “Well, I wouldn’t be here if I didn’t find something to love.”

You feel yourself start to smile from ear to ear. “Same.”
