"Technically I don't faint, it's actually a lot more visually interesting," Sibylla scratched the side of her beak for a moment, "I kinda set up a mirror once to see what it was like. It's unsettling and awesome at the same time." She grinned, the smile a bit off center, "Green flames and it wipes over us in a wave. I wish I got to see it more often, it sure would make ceasing to exist more spectacular if nothing else." She laughed a bit, "Anyway I'm OK with reading, do you have a dictionary, I left mine err at home." A wagon without heat or cooling systems, that was also full of sharp implements and other stuff, not to mention the bed in it was miserable if she had the ability she'd have dragged Iron out to get a proper bed. "Of course I could play with your kids for a bit, that could be fun," she looked over at the foals, reminded suddenly that her mode of creation denied her many many things including an actual childhood. Sure she had Iron's memories of his, but they were obviously not memories of hers. Her eyes caught on Fireflare's wings, which yielded a bit less of a smile, "Could go for a flight..." Her mental list was not auto-populating with activities that needed to be done, could be done or she wanted to do. There were just too many activities to reasonably do in her limited time, so much to do, so little time. She reached into her pocket and pulled out her pocket watch. As she looked down she pushed an blue tinged feather out of her face, Fourteen hours thirty minutes until spell failure. She snapped it closed with a frown. "I'd let you see him earlier if I thought he'd agree to give me the time back," Her voice lowered to a near whisper, "I don't though." She paused, snapped the watch closed and put it away, "Alright, I think playing with foals is on the docket right now, won't get many opportunities to do that I think!" She took a tentative step closer to the trio of Moonshine, Glory Star and Fireflare, "So ummm... What do I do?" |

"You're supposed to be moderately flattered, hon; our son just gave you a backhoofed compliment. That's probably the best you're going to get out of him when he's not hero-worshipping." said Star, leaning casually on the couch's armrest and overseeing the goings-on like a good evil overlord. "And what do you mean, 'what do I do?' They're not animals, you know; if you want to know if they'll play with you, just ask!" It amazed Star that two people could be so incredibly awkward around kids. Sibylla acted as though she had never seen a foal before in her life and Fireflare was always just a little bit odd about interacting with their offspring. The unicorn couldn't help but smile, though; as awkward as they were, both of them meant well and put forth an honest effort. That counted for a lot. |

"Right! Moonshine, want to help Sybilla with the blocks?" "Bocks are the most awesome ting!" "Hey, I thought I was the most awesome thing!" "You're the most awesome pony. Diffwence." Moonshine pointed at Wishing Star. "And mommy's the smartest pony. Almost as pitty as Pitty, only not pink." The pegasus rolled her eyes, deciding not to get into a battle of aesthetic debate and insttead turning to Glory Star. "So, what do you want to do?" The little pegasus wandered over to the toybin,and after half a minute of struggling emerged with some chalk in her mouth. Fireflare nodded, pulling out some blank paper for her. "Great! Here you go, kiddo." The filly was so creative... although her artwork was vaguely disturbing. |

"Excuse me Iron didn't exactly have a lot of experience with foals and I haven't exactly been going out of my way to rectify that particular hole in his knowledge base." She looked away, "So." Trailing off she returned her gaze to the foals. She looked at the blocks and snorted, again slightly annoyed at the eminent lack of force the gesture provided. "Blocks." She padded over to the piles and after clearing a spot for her bottom, sat down next to it and looked about, "So, whatcha building?" She looked down at the many multi-shaped blocks. She picked one up and spun it around in her clawed hands. It didn't trigger any memories, a fact that made the Gryphoness frown, had it been missed in the copy or had it never existed in the first place? She looked at her building partner and stuffed the anxious lack of memory away with a smile. She held the block a moment longer then reached out and carefully tried to place the block on the foal's head. |

"Hey!" Moonshine cried, waving his hooves at his mane. "Dat's a bock! It's not a hat!" He took the object and put it on his tower, giving Sybilla a mildly peeved look. "Bocks are not hats. Bocks are for building. And expoding, but only after building. Don't be silly." "He's very serious about his blocks," Fireflare informed Sybilla casually. "I think he has names for them." She glanced at the chalk drawing that Glory Star was making. "Awww.... it's a birdy.... um, with, with a broken wing.... Glory, why are you drawing a birdy with a broken wing? Are you scared when you fly?" The little pegasus tilted her head right. "Oh, good, because a lot of ponies think a pegasus that doesn't fly isn't really a pegasus. Not that I think that!" she added quickly, "I just don't want them thinking that before they get to know you." |

Lots of gryphons too. Her wings fluttered for a moment then she focused in on Moonshine, "Oh really now." As a matter of course she grabbed a halfmoon shaped block and placed it on her head. After a moment to get it stable she grabbed a small cylinder and placed it over her left eye, "I do say your blocks make wonderful additions to ones wardrobe!" The cylinder refused however to stay long, falling off her face and into the pile a moment later, the halfmoon remained in place appearing as a false bowler hat. Though the orange did not mix well with the blue.

"HEY!" Moonshine jumped up, scabbling at Suybilla's beak. "Dat's not funny! Stop being so mean!" "Kiddo, I think Sybilla's allowed to play the way she wants to so long as she's not hurting anypony." "But, but... Bocks!" Moonshine pointed at his tower. "This is what Bocks are supposed to be!" "Moonshine... this is Sybilla's first time playing with blocks. Maybe if you show her the right way, she'll want to play with them the right way?" The little unicorn grumped, but conceded the point. "Fiiiiiiine." He put one block on another, pointing at it very sternly. "Dis. Dis is wat do. Can you do dis?" |

The gryphoness retreated from the foal's assault, the half moon block tumbling to the ground in the process. She stared a moment, being challenged like that by a child was more than a little dissonant, but she held onto her tongue and kept a rant back from spewing out and making the foal be her. As Fireflare and Moonshine finished their talk she smiled, "Of course." She grinned wide as she took a pair of blocks and carefully made a top hat shape on her head. "Tower hat!" She chuckled to herself, loosing the balance of the blocks and sending them tumbling again back to the ground. She quietly took the likely forthcoming admonishment from Moonshine and began playing more in line with his preference, stacking the blocks into towers. The Gryphon made her own tower of blocks, a spiral of long blocks placed on their side so that they spiraled a stairway liked effect around the outside. After that well, much playing ensued, where in Sibylla did her level best to not further irritate the children of her hosts. Hopefully they would tire soon enough and the adult business could begin again. |

Wishing Star looked up from her homework for a moment to check on the others. Glory was drawing something macabre and slightly disturbing. Moonshine was fussing at Sibylla over improper building technique. Fireflare was making sure he didn't get too out of hoof. Good, everything was working out splendidly so far. She returned to her books with a small smile on her face, happy in the knowledge that there were no disasters looming. |

Suddenly, there was knocking. A sort of inconsistent, but insisting pattern. Fireflare shrugged her shoulders and rolled her wings. "Okay, who is that?" She got up and walked over, opening the front door. "Hey, whoever--FJ?" "Schooooooo good to schee you." The one-winged pegasus attempted to enter, but ended up slumping onto the surprised red pony. "Ya schee. Ya schee. You have kids. You. So maybye, maybe you needsch, needsch bodygaurdsh." "Oh fuck, you're plastered." Fireflare paused. "Oh, and kids, fuck is a bad word that you're only allowed to use when homes are falling apart, until then stick with shit." "Yes madwe." "Um, Jack, I... Starry, er..." Completely at a loss, Fireflare led Flapper Jack in. "So! FJ! This is... Sybilla, she's a friend, and why the hell are you so drunk?" "Ish alllllllll a joke." "Buddy, I'm not laughing. And I don't think you are either." "Thash.... the, wacth you call, kickline?" The stallion gave her a confused look. "No. Funny bit. Shomething. Doesn't matter..." |

Sibylla looked up from helping make towers to see the new pony, she was not pleased to see the state he was in however. She frowned and nodded when her name was mentioned, "Hello." She winced when Fireflare dropped not one but two f-bombs in short succession. There however was sadly little she could do to correct the situation, Flapper was hardly her friend and so she returned to her new situation with the towers. Trying to make a bridge between them that wouldn't collapse entirely before it could be completed. Sadly civil engineering was not one thing she or Iron had studied extensively. |

"Oh, for heaven's sake." sighed Star, shutting her papers into her textbook to mark her page and giving Flapper Jack a Look. You know the ones; one of those looks that says, 'you're not getting out of this with less than a lecture, and if that's all that happens then you should count yourself lucky.' Wrinkling her nose at the potent reek of liquor wafting off of Jack's inebriated form, the somewhat exasperated unicorn gestured towards the hall with a hoof. "Quarantine him in the bathroom until he vomits or passes out, and then roll him into a blanket somewhere out of the way. No sympathy until he sobers up. I swear, what kind of pony comes knocking at 1 PM stone drunk?" she commanded, watching sternly until the hammered ex-guardspony was hauled off to dry out for the night. The last thing they needed was some soldier getting all maudlin on them and then puking on the rug. |

"Yeah, I was his bar buddy for two years and he's never been this bad..." Fireflare tried to drag Flapper Jack down the hall, straining a bit because he was larger then she was. "I men he--of--usually he paces himself. He knows his limit, is what I'm saying, this is a first." "Naaaaaaaaaa, beeen like this aaaaaaaaaall weeeek...." Flapper Jack shook his head "Shober not gonna help. SHober ish thinking. Shuicide thinking." The red peagsus gave him a wary glance. "Wait... so it's either boozed up or..." She shook her head. "Okay, you need somepony to watch you. I don't know who but... yeah." She managed to stuff the stallion into the bathroom. "So, um... pass out or whatever." "I hash a shtomach of shteeeeeeeeeeeeeal." "Yeah, sure." |
