That's why they got on each other's nerves sometimes. They held up a mirror to each other and sometimes they didn't like what they saw.
STOMP is a fascinating read today. It's like the world needed Detective Zipp, and Rhapsody was trying to give her to us.
Snowy went very still as the vines came up, and played scales in his head, up and down and up and down, until he was allowed to exit.
He walks through the hallway until he comes to the reflective room filled with the crystals. "It's on this side of the room..." He says, slowing down to look at...
Barometz stopped and scowled at Snowy Skies, silently looking him over for almost a full minute before saying,
"Very well then."
After trekking deep into the swamp, they soon arrived at the cave entrance.
After a few seconds of receiving scowling, Snowy scowls right back. "You don't want a...
"To the best of my ability." Snowy appends. "I don't want you sending me on suicide missions and after nonexistent things for your own amusement. If a task is impossible, I'm released from it."
"But of course. You are of no use to me in most situations that would cause you to perish. I would...
Barometz sounded almost conversational. That was good. "The portal is in the cave. When you come to the three paths..." Snowy pauses awkwardly, squinting at nothing for a second before looking down at the ground and marking out a rough map of the earliest parts of the cave. He looks up at...
Grape Vine waved over First Ivory and whispered something. She left and then brought Grape Vine a tiny sealed jar with seeds in it. She looked over to Maplejack and said, "These muscadines will be purple when they grow. They should fair better in Caballuston's warmer weather. You may have them...
"When we were there, we went to da Pancake Pilferer. Pretty cozy place. While it had too many pancakes, we ordered their Waffle Warden special. And when we got it, we covered the waffles with LOTS of fruit. And with whipped creme. And sprinklers!" "'Sprinkles' sis." "Yeah sprinkles. I-I've never...
Maple starts eating, letting the need to put food in her mouth cover the necessity of looking down... maybe someponies just don't want to talk to her.
"Though obviously there's no way a princess would show up here." "I wouldn't be too sure on that. Despite some interesting things about the...
Barometz frowned at Snowy Skies.
"I'll opt to not answer that question. However, I shall allow you to ask another instead."
Rhapsody hides her displeasure of Grape Vine knowing at least of her mother and where she works, her paranoia over this visit once more starting to grow. "Our jobs are...
Snowy looks at Barometz, mildly surprised. He wouldn't purchase damaged goods, personally. "We'll talk terms after my second question." He says simply. He wasn't going to get into negotiations with only one question available to him.
"And what is your second question?"
Snowy looks Barometz...
Oh all the alarms that went off in Static's head! Where to start? 'Boss' instead of 'Mayor'? 'Moths drawn to a flame'? If suspicions weren't running rampant in Static's mind before, they certainly would be now!
"They very comfortable, thank you." Uncomfortably so in fact. Static was finding all...
Snowy nods and sits down, staring at a tree trunk as he words his question. He knows exactly which question is first, he just has to do it right...
Eventually, he looks up. "You mentioned that you could see that I had been in contact with powerful forces. If you look a little closer, you'll see...
"Are you so certain? You might not have noticed, but we left with one more pony than we entered with. There's one more, he insisted we leave him behind." Snowy thought that was what had happened. It was best to stick as close to the truth as possible when convincing somepony of something...
Things were quiet for almost a minute, then Snowy Skies heard a voice behind him.
"You are here...and yet you have no information to bring me."
Snowy had just given up and gone back to picking swamp peppers when Barometz spoke up. Quelling a hop of surprise down to a small shiver, he turns...
Rhapsody was slightly more at-ease at the dinner, she was certain that there was no way they were being spied on, and she didn't detect any forms of weapons. It didn't mean she was relaxed, or expected this to go well; but for the moment her general paranoia about this whole mission was dialed...
"An hour sounds good." Snowy waves lightly before turning and heading into the swamp.

As Static entered the room, he feigned awe while actually looking around for escape routes and anything that could be used as a weapon (blunt objects, things made of glass, dinner knives, etc.). He...
Snowy lets out a short, barking laugh. "My head's only good for telling my horn what to do." He says, jovial in his self-deprecation. "When should I meet you back here?"
"Does an hour sound good? More? Less?"

Maple carefully arranged her dress for the night out on the bed. As a...
The cliff edge was one of the town landmarks that Snowy remembered, fortunately, so they made their way there with little fuss. "Are you coming into the swamp with me, Blue?" Snowy asks from the precipice.
Inferno Blue shook his head. "I have a lot of things around town to do, like help out...
*Maple slid down from the rooftop along the side of the carriage like warm honey...*
Once inside a room she got cleaned up and set out her fancies
In the midst of a flurry of paper, Ready Quill nodded and set the book by his side. Snowy Skies was almost back out the door until...
"If they try, they're gonna have to answer to me. Hurting my team is the quickest way somepony can figure out what their health care options are..."
As the STOMP traveled through the city, there was a unicorn stallion in a purple suit standing on the street corner. Holding a saxophone with his...
