Zipp.
Oh Zipp.🐦
Pipp 9:38am
Pipper to Zipp-Zapp!
Answer me!🔔
Zipp 9:39am
💤
Pipp 9:40am
You stayed up late again,
didn't you? 🌕
Pipp 9:41am
Get up Zippyhead. Wake up and
smell the salty, fresh air! 🏖
Pipp 9:42am
ZIPP, GET UP ALREADY! 📣
Zipp 9:42am
What?
Pipp 9:43am
There's a pony here that wants to do an
interview on the Royal Pegasi Sisters! ✨
Pipp 9:43am
You have to come down
to Mane Melody! 🎤
Zipp 9:44am
No.
Pipp 9:44am
Come on, Zipp. You can even wear
your sunglasses if you like. 🕶
Zipp 9:45am
This is just another publicity thing for
you, so handle it yourself.
Pipp 9:45am
But this is about the sisters.
That includes you. 💕
Zipp 9:46am
I don't want any involvement, Pippi.
Pipp 9:46am
Don't call me that! I'm trying to drown
out that 'long stocking' meme! 🌊
Zipp 9:47am
And I'm trying to get some sleep.
Pipp 9:47am
But this'll mean a lot to me. Getting to
spend time with my big sister. 🎀
Pipp 9:49am
Building the special linking bond of love and trust
with somepony who'll always look out for you. 🔗
Pipp 9:52am
I'll tell Mom that you missed this opportunity to connect
with the ponies. Something that a queen would do. 👑
Zipp 9:53am
You're evil.
Pipp 9:53am
I'll be waiting, sis. ⌛
Zipp 10:29am
Alright, I'm here at the salon.
So where are you?
Zipp 10:32am
Pipp?
Pipp 10:33am
Sorry, just left my phone
for a moment.
Zipp 10:33am
Alright, so where
are you?
Zipp 10:34am
What about that interview
you pushed me into?
Pipp 10:35am
They decided to do it another time,
and I had to step out for a moment.
Zipp 10:35am
You can't be serious.
Pipp 10:36am
I'm afraid so.
Zipp 10:37am
I got up for this?
Pipp 10:37am
Let's make the most of it. Maybe using this
time to catch up with each other?
Zipp 10:38am
*sigh* Fine. So where do you
wanna meet up?
Pipp 10:39am
Actually, I was thinking that maybe
we could just spend time like this.
Pipp 10:39am
Sending text messages back
and forth to each other.
Zipp 10:40am
Really?
Pipp 10:40am
Yeah, it'll be like we're having a secret conversation.
Just like when we were foals.
Zipp 10:41am
That's... so unlike you.
Pipp 10:42am
How so?
Zipp 10:42am
How so? You post about
everything to your fans.
Pipp 10:44am
Well let's just keep this one confidential.
Only between the two of us.
Zipp 10:46am
Alright.
Pipp 10:47am
So, have you talked to Mom recently?
Zipp 10:48am
Are you kidding? She keeps checking
up on me almost everyday.
Zipp 10:48am
Asking things like, what I've learned or witnessed today. It
feels like I'm reporting a lesson or something at this point.
Pipp 10:49am
Such as...
Zipp 10:49am
You know, things from the perspective of a standard
pony. Knowledge needed for being Queen.
Pipp 10:50am
Do you think that she might have an ulterior
reason for wanting these reports regularly?
Zipp 10:52am
No.
I don't think she would.
Zipp 10:52am
Are you okay, Pipp? You
seem kinda off to me.
Pipp 10:54am
Off? What? Are you still half
asleep from staying up late?
Zipp 10:56am
Maybe.
Pipp 10:57am
Perhaps Maretime Bay is messing with us.
Zipp 10:57am
What do you mean by that?
Pipp 10:59am
Well we're used to living in the mountains.
Maybe the salty air is bad for us.
Zipp 11:02am
Are you certain about that, Pippi?
Pipp 11:03am
Yeah, it's nothing like
the air back home.
Zipp 11:03am
Who are you?
Pipp 11:05am
It's Pipp, your sister.
Zipp 11:05am
Liar!
Pipp 11:07am
That's hurtful, Zipp.
Zipp 11:07am
Really? Because my real sister would've
used an emoji to express that!
Zipp 11:08am
She doesn't doubt
our mother!
Zipp 11:08am
She enjoys the
salty air!
Zipp 11:08am
And she hates to
be called 'Pippi'!
Zipp 11:09am
You're nothing like Pipp, so you better
start texting and tell me where she is!
Pipp 11:10am
udjklcicxkaw
Zipp 11:11am
Are you texting or hexing?
Pipp 11:12am
Sorry, Cloudpuff must've sent a message
when he retrieved my phone.💦
Zipp 11:12am
What happened?
Pipp 11:13am
Long story short, when I turned to attend to a customer
back at Mane Melody, my phone was stolen. 💢
Pipp 11:13am
That interviewer took it, but thanks to Cloudpuff,
the best puppy in the world! 🐶
Pipp 11:14am
We were able to track them down
and get my phone back. 🎉
Zipp 11:15am
The interviewer stole it?
...that answers some questions.
Pipp 11:16am
The nerve of them! Just why
would they do that? 💭
Zipp 11:17am
Going off the questions, I take it that they're
against the idea of the two of us living here.
Zipp 11:17am
They were suspicious that we were plotting something
and implied that we didn't fit in with Maretime Bay.
Zipp 11:18am
Old habits die hard, I guess.
Pipp 11:18am
Well we're staying no matter what. Nothing
is going to move us out of our new home. ⚓
Zipp 11:19am
I'm happy everything turned out okay,
but something's bothering me...
Zipp 11:19am
That interviewer, they seem to know me pretty well, but
you're the one who has a social media account between us.
Zipp 11:20am
If there was anypony they would be most
familiar with, I'd assume it would be you.
Pipp 11:20am
Yeah... about that. 💧
Zipp 11:21am
...you were giving them information
centered on me, weren't you?
Pipp 11:22am
They likely decided to focus on you, because as we waited,
I was bragging about just how great of a sister I have. 🌟
Pipp 11:23am
A brilliant investigator, a strong mare, and an understanding
sister that shows mercy towards her younger sibling's actions. 💖
Zipp 11:24am

Zipp 11:25am
Scatteredbrain, naive, habits,
and of course, your phone.
Pipp 11:25am

Zipp 11:26am
I simply, cannot decided,
which part of you.
Pipp 11:26am
🌼
Zipp 11:27am
Which part, THAT DRIVES
ME CRAZY!!!
Pipp 11:27am
Love you too, sis!
