Chief Greytail hopped down from his perch atop the tree branch, taking the thirty foot fall in stride as though it were nothing, and sprinted over to the boiling mass of his kin seething beneath Fireflare. The entire crowd froze at his chirping call, and he chattered briefly at them before dashing up a nearby tree and disappearing. The Sylvai vanished in a heartbeat, scattering in every direction and fading into the park. Nothing had natural camouflage quite like a squirrel's; the moment they hit a tree they became nearly impossible to spot. "Well, that...was hectic..." said Star slowly, getting down from the bench and walking over to where Fireflare was hovering, looking around carefully. It was as though there wasn't a single rodent anywhere in the park. |

"Yeah..." Fireflare shrugged. "Well anyway I guess that was the orientation. Um. Half of it, anyway..." She looked around, trying to figure out where the teachers and guides had gotten to. "I... guess we should... see if anypony's hurt or something." |

While it would turn out that nopony was actually injured, there was no longer a single scrap of food left anywhere in the park. It had turned out that the squirrels had vanished once all the food was collected...and not because of Fireflare's shouted threats. "Didn't you say you used to sleep in the park a lot? Did you ever have to put up with insane bandit squirrels?" asked Wishing Star as the pair sat at a sandwich stand some thirty minutes later. Orientation was over, and they weren't due to start classes for a while; they would be joining for the summer semester in March. If she was going to be taking Magecraft classes, Star would have to traverse or avoid that park every single day, and being molested by the Sylvai every day didn't sound fun. |

"I was only attacked three or four times, and always by a single squirrel. They've never been this organized...." Fireflare looked up. "I don't want to say it, but it might be because of the whole eternal night thing. Lunar radiation has been known to strengthen magic, lots of werelings practically have it for blood..." She munched on her panini thoughtfully. "Anyway, I don't think it's normal. Groundskeepers should have it under control soon enough. Huh, I wonder if Hayseed still works out here," she mused, "always used to give me his paper every day after he finished with the funnies. Kept me warm at night, that paper. Of course, he'd only give it to me if he hadn't given it to some other hobo... way things are now I think he's already gotten rid of all his papers." |

"Aww, poor pony. My honey was a hobo." simpered the chocolate mare, treating her wife to a sympathetic pout and a dose of the puppy dog eyes. While she wasn't actually that sad about it, since Fireflare was no longer homeless and likely never would be again, it wasn't really in her nature to pass up such a blatant opportunity to act cute. "Well, you don't need newspapers to stay warm any more. That's what I'm for." Picking at her mushroom and egg flatmelt, (She wasn't terribly hungry) Star mused idly about what they should do next. Ordering their textbooks could wait...maybe that cloudwalking trip could be arranged? |

"Aw thanks, Starry, but I don't think we would both fit on a bench. Well, side-by-side anyway. I guess we could lie face to face but that kinda ruins the point. I'm rambling, let me eat this sandwich." The sandwich stood not a chance against the ravenous beast. Soon it departed from the world entirely, sorely missed by its brethren still in the stand. "Right. Now let's see. I think I promised you a sappy ultra romantic walk on big white fluffy assemblages of water vapor. If you'd like, I can fly you up there while you cast the cloud-walking spell, or we could just teleport or....?" |

"Flying sounds like fun. Anything for an excuse to rub up against you, hon." joked Star, concentrating briefly on altering her own passive magical field to more closely resemble a pegasus'. That was all it took to walk on clouds, really; just a minor adjustment to manifest one of a pegasus pony's attributes in one of the other races. After a moment, a telltale glow appeared around her hooves and she stood, picking the last few mushrooms off of her open-faced sandwich. "Okay, all ready. Take me away, my dear." |

"Gotta warn you, winter weather like this and the winds will be a bit stronger then you're used to." Fireflare hovered up over Wishing Star, wrapping her legs tightly around her barrel, and took off into the sky. "Still, there are more clouds... bigger clouds, anyway, this time of year. Ponies like snow more then rain, you know?" A few powerful wingbeats and some gliding later--Canterlot, after all, was pretty high altitude--the pair arrived on a thick cloud. Fireflare frowned when she saw all the other pegasus couples here; apparently in the capital this was a common dating venue. "And here I wanted this to be private and romantic. Um. Well... at least you... look prettier then all the other mares?" |

A chorus of quiet scoffs and a lone 'well, I never!' broke out around Star and Flare when the red pony opened her mouth. "Aww, that's sweet, hon, but you don't have to pet my ego. That filly over there is absolutely bucking smoking hot. No way I've got her beat, but I really appreciate the compliment." said Wishing Star, briefly pointing out a mare who looked like she had just been ripped from the pages of a fashion magazine posing serenely on an outcrop of cloud. "Unfortunately for her, I've got a thing for wings, and yours are the biggest on the cloud. That and you're the mother of my foals and my personal savior. And pretty good in bed to boot. Have I mentioned lately that I love you?" Pressing herself in close to Fireflare in a sort of standing cuddle, Star nuzzled the pegasus' cheek and gave her a coy smile. It was actually really pretty up here, despite the cold and the damp; if this had been a regular date, Fireflare would have been getting lucky later for sure. She still probably would anyway, date or not. Star was a sucker for romantic gestures. |

"Why no, Star, I don't think you have!" Fireflare brought a hoof to her head with a melodramatic gasp. "Why if only I'd known about this before we got married, this is simply dreadful! You see, my dear Wishing Star, I only wed you because I loved you and okay sorry, I cannot keep up this noblepony facade. It's just too ridiculous for me." She wrapped a wing around the unicorn and pecked her on the nose. "Really though. I do love you. And if I were a poet or something I'd be able to explain why so I'm just going to go with 'you're awesome' and leave it at that." She grinned roguishly. "Although... adding 'in bed' wouldn't be untrue." |

"Well. As long as you're being honest." said Star happily, enjoying a beautiful vista with the pony she loved. It had been a perfect 'day'. |
