Princess Luna Picks Up Hitchhikers

Leafy Greens: Coda

Two minutes later, Polar Star returns, muzzle again dripping green slime. He sighs, and hands me a second scroll.

I open it. It reads simply:

P.S.: Is Fireball okay?

I look up in growing horror. "Polar Star?"

He stands a bit straighter. "Yes, mistress?"

"I did instruct thee to return to the cart after dropping me off at the library," I say slowly, "yes?"

He stares at me blankly.

I repeat the colorful epithet I learned from Fireball.

Hah!

Bonus points for using "flensing."

[LittleSallyDigby]

Hahaha. There's that mystery solved.

[Skeeter The Lurker]

Pfffffft. Oh god.

That was too good.

I think the implication is that her guards are messily sneezing out the scrolls in a manner similar to Spike's. Somehow.
I could be wrong.
