"Yeah, I do have to go to class. It's okay, though; you guys can go on without me. I'll be home in an hour or two, okay hon?" said Wishing Star, telekinetically compressing her food into a sort of noodle cookie and taking it with her as she stood up. "Have fun, and no more giving Sibylla funny ideas that might get her really badly hurt. Or imprisoned. Or dead."

Picking up her bags from beside the booth, Wishing Star waved to the others and walked off, going to learn some more magecraft and hopefully get one step closer to a good job.

Sibylla winced as the food was crushed, getting a hefty arcane jolt from the unicorn's careless grasping of laylines, one of which happened to be powering her spell matrix. Thankfully the spell wasn't something more significant. She turned and mustered a smile, "We'll see you later then." She turned her head and lightly punched her chest, the remnants of the feedback feeling a lot like a sudden case of heartburn. She chugged the last of her water and got out of the seat, "Alright, now I'm ready." Sibylla however was watching Wishing Star like a hawk wishing that she could sense the laylines as well as even Iron could so as to avoid a repeat of the discomfort of having hers plucked.

SCENE TRANSITION
****
"Hey Galaxy! I'm home, and I brought a friend to meet the kiddos." She rubbed the back of her head, glancing around the room. "So yeah, um, how were things today?" Yep, there was Moonshine's spectacular block... whatever it was this time, and the foalsitter seemed to be dealing with the foals fairly well.

Sibylla stopped near the door and looked around, noting something quickly in her notebook before entering properly, "Nice place." She looked around on the inside, spying the foals at play. Her eyes were drawn to the one with the horn. She silently hoped that nothing bad would come of the foal's energetic arcane potential. "So these are the little ones?" She said brightly, while nervous about the unicorns in the room she was also quite happy to be beating Iron to the punch of meeting Fireflare and Wishing Star's children.

Galaxy sat in the middle of the room as Titubi helped Moonshine with the last block on his current project. Once the colt had learned that his foalsitter was basically going to be bringing a living elevator along, he seemed to have gotten a lot bolder with his creations. Glory Star, for her part, was flying about, but would suddenly change direction whenever she go too close to a wall or another solid object. The blind unicorn had the forethought to mark the pegasus with her own beacon, so she could constantly tell where she was; and it had been working out pretty well for a pony that could defy gravity on a whim.

"Same as always, Fireflare." She turned in the general direction of the gryphon and nodded at it. "Hello; my name is Galaxy. This," she indicated the flutterpony as she buzzed over to her, "is my daughter: Titubi. Pleased to meet you."

"Hi!" The flutter pony waved excitedly.

"This is Sybilla, she's... a friend of a friend." Fireflare shrugged. "She has a magic issue, Starry promised to help out." She kneeled down. "So, Moonshine, what did you make this time?"

"Itsa biiiiiig tower I saw inna book. I think it's called the Fifa tower..." The unicorn looked at his block construction with annoyance. "But the bocks are too thick!"

"Oh. Well, thinner blocks break easier."

"I know, madwe..." Moonshine grumped around. "I just wanna make eveyting."

Fireflare giggled, ruffling his mane affectionately. "that's a big goal. But if anypony can do it, I know you can." She flew up to where Glory Star was currently roosting. "Hey you, how are you doing?"

Glory Star stared past her. Without warning, she pounced at Sybilla's tail.

Sibylla nodded toward Galaxy, "Hello." The name triggered memories and not particularly savory ones. One that included a pony she didn't particularly like. She held back a snide comment that came to mind, choosing instead to look at the little ones, "Moonshine and Glory Star," She pointed to each in turn as she circled near the edge of the room. The gryphoness didn't want to bother the foals as they played, not yet at least, that didn't stop one of them from playing with her however. She caught the flight and almost dodged out of the way, only to realize the little one was aiming for her tail, "Oh, well. Hi there Glory Star, how are you?" She realized a moment after that she'd used the 'talking to small children' voice that nearly every adult had prepared for just such an occasion.

Galaxy could hear the tension in the gryphon's voice, but couldn't figure out what it was from. She had never met her in her life, and was very good at recognizing voices. However, she frowned when her next 'ping' returned something that she hadn't been expecting. "Glory Star." Unlike the gryphon, she didn't use the 'baby voice', she spoke in her normal, slightly Canterlot-accented voice. "Please do not be rude to a guest."

However, even as she said that, she found herself paying some particular attention to the gryphon as well. "However, it is usually polite to not walk around with a disguise spell on."

"Yeah, that's... part of the magical problem Star needs to help her deal with. It's really complicated." Fireflare shrugged. "Most of the magibabble went over my head."

Glory Star wrapped herself up in Sybilla's tail. Fireflare made no motion to stop her.

Moonshine, however, peered at Sybilla's beak curiously. "You look like a birdie. Can you sing like a birdie?"

Sibylla chuckled at the whole matter, "Yes, that's pretty much what's going on," she smiled warmly, still not completely remembering what it was that was wrong with Galaxy that she was supposed to remember. The pony entangling its self in her tail was ignored as she sat down, instead she focused on Moonshine, "I do look like a birdie, but I'm what everypony calls a Gryphon and no, I can't sing. I can do a few magic tricks but they well they aren't indoor appropriate." She smiled very warmly to Moonshine, intent on keeping in the little magic monger's good graces.

"Well; that was was incredibly vague on both parts." As blunt as ever, Galaxy turned to her daughter. "Think you're up to it?"

Titubi nodded out of habit, but responded with 'Yes, Mother." She buzzed over to Sibylla and smiled as best she could to avoid showing her fangs. "This will only take a second." Her hoof touched the gryphon and her eyes rolled back slightly as she was mentally sent somewhere and somewhen else. She gasped lightly. "She was a he... and a pony 'he' at that. He was addicted to transmutation pins; always used them, even when he said he wouldn't." Her body spasm'd slightly, and she continued on. "Met with a unicorn and tried to turn into a gryphon for good... I think; but something went wrong with the runes." Another spasm. "It's still ongoing; they switch places." She spasm'd a few more times, then pulled her hoof away and staggered.

She composed herself and smiled again. "There, sorry about that." And she walked over to sit on the couch; using her psychometry was mentally exhausting and Flutterponies weren't built for stamina as it stood.

"So," Galaxy started up as she moved a pillow for her daughter to rest against, "you're a liar."

"Technically, we only lied by omission, and since it is kind of an embarrassing problem I kinda felt it would be best to keep it quiet." Fireflare rolled her eyes. "I guess I should have known you'd have that reaction but really Gal? Having your daughter do the investigating? You should do it on your own time, the secret could have been something horrible."

She gave Titubi a glance, judging the situation. "I mean it's good training, I guess, and she needs it... but maybe more controlled lessons, something not as risky. Unless you've somehow transferred your predator fetish to her."

Moonshine pouted. "Awwwwww.... Madwe and Pitty are good singers. Why can't evwypony be good singers?"

"Moonshine, talent and hard work both contribute to quality. What Sybillia is saying is that she has no talent or reason for singing."

"But that sounds mean!"

"What will...?" Then Titubi touched the gryphoness and spoke. Sibylla froze still as a statue then physically recoiled from the flutterpony as she stopped talking. What came next was loud, "That... How dare you do something like that without my permission!" She turned her gaze away, the involuntary intrusion into her past made her feel dirty. "You had no right to invade my privacy like that!" She yelled half at the ground, half at the pair who had so rudely intruded into her history like it was theirs to know everything.

She caught herself before she over dramatized any further, there would be no weeping or holding herself like she'd been physically assaulted. However she was now actively avoiding eye contact with either of the non-resident ponies of the house. She turned and carefully looked only at Moonshine, "Your mother is right, I don't have the talent for it and it's just not something I care to bother with, I'll let somepony who's a natural at it do the singing. I'm better at magic anyway."

"Or what?" Galaxy countered. "Let a random gryphon glowing with magic into a house with two foals too young to know what deception even is and a pegasus who is too trusting for her own good? You have nothing but Fireflare's word that you are who you say you are, that you're a friend; you've already admitted you can do magics, and it's incredibly easy to manipulate somepony who trusts just about everypony else. You can complain about how 'rude' I was for doing it, but I call it 'being safe'. I'm not going to let someone who I know nothing about around ponies I care about without making sure they aren't a threat to them!"

"Wait, I'm too trusting for my own good now? Is this about Luna? I thought we'd agreed to drop that..." She sighed, waving a hoof vaguely. "I guess you're right about protecting the kids though. Trust me, I've met her before... well, him, anyway, so I had a way of knowing he--she was telling the truth. I don't bring strangers into my home, I'm not stupid."

Moonshine looked between the big ponies, not exactly understanding what was going on. "Um... fighting is bad? Can you pease stop?" He didn't expect them to stop, but it was worth a shot.

Glory Star took this moment to poke curiously under Sybilla's tail.
