"Makes me feel old sometimes." Nova said, taking a drink. "You know, like those veterans that would always tell their stories to the kids?" Nova stood up and mimicked an elderly pony, taking on a grizzled voice. "Back in my day, we had to train with weights on our hooves! And walk FIVE MILES to get to the chow-hall!"
"Maybe... It's time to forget..."

"Back in my day, we fought by droppin' rocks on 'em! And they replied with homing arrows and lightning storms! Back in my day two sticks and a rock and we had to share the rock!" Boom Wing bantered on.

Nova laughed at Boom's impression. "Yeah! Just like that!" He said, with a smile. "Hoo boy. Hopefully it'll be a while before I'm a grizzled old stallion." He said. "Hopefully I get you live long enough to become a grizzled old stallion. Tensions have been pretty high lately. What with the Diamond Dogs still hanging around, even so long after the war. Ponies are starting to get impatient."

"I can imagine. Not everypony's so fortunate to have a mansion in Canterlot and a job in Cloudsdale." Boom said as he stared into his drink. This was shortly before finishing it, of course. "But hopefully that'll change soon. I hear they're trying to re-establish a standing military, or at least send a force to deal with those pests before they start becoming a true threat. I'm surprised they haven't dispatched the LSF, given that ya'll basically answer to Princess Luna alone." he stated.

"Hmm." Nova put a bit of thought into it. It would be pretty easy for a couple of teams to go in and take care of the problem. "I don't know. The princesses have been reluctant to do anything concerning the situation it seems... I'm sure they know the situation better than we do." Nova sat back down and took another gulp from his mug.

"I'm certain they do. That's why I disregard any suspicion of Equestria's inaction. So what has the LSF been up to since the war, then? Training and the occasional mission that you'd have to kill me if you told me about?" he asked.

"Mostly just training. To keep busy." Nova responded. "That and going on patrols around the border. Nothing special." He flagged down the waitress again and ordered some fried cucumbers to go with their beer. "I don't know. I just feel like there's something we're missing. Something we're not seeing that's right under our noses."

"I think that's how everypony feels after the war. The gryphons were our allies prior to this madness if I'm not mistaken. They're territorial and fierce, sure, but not ones to wage war without good reason. I'd rather Equestria remain as strong and vigilant as ever, really. Especially since it's at its weakest point in almost all known history." Boom Wing conversed. He took the time to casually glance around the bar and assess the scene around him.

Nova shrugged, turning his head as a group of drunken guards-ponies suddenly burst into song. "Nothing we can do about it now. I hear that some of the upper ranks are pushing for a standing military, but a lot of the nobles are against it." He said "If only they knew. We lost a lot of good ponies. And a lot of them were under the service of nobles."

"Yeah, I'm jaded sick of the politicking of the nobles. It sounds like a power play to me, but it's a terrible idea to be doin' that right now. I mean, there's very little power to own in Equestria and nopony's gonna win if they keep it up. Wish someone could just knock some sense into 'em and remind 'em that they're Equestrian and it ain't about them!" he stated. It was obviously that he was becoming a bit rowdy as his voice seemed to pick up in volume.

Nova laughed. "Careful. That kinda talk could incite a revolution!" Nova drank more, finishing his mug, only to have it refilled by the waitress again, as well as Boom's. "Gotta save some for the other guy, war takes a lot of energy after all!"

"Ah, don't get me wrong. I'm nothing if not patriotic. I'm just a bit frustrated that after all the effort and energy we've both personally put into this ordeal our leadership would do us the favor and just get along for once. It shouldn't take impending doom or the threat of losing all of Equestria before they get their act together." he said before taking a drink of his beer. "I just hope we can rebuild, stronger than before. Though I think Trottingham is going to be a constant grim reminder for us all..." he stated.

Nova nodded in agreement. "Seems like it takes a soldier to get anything done." Nova said. Just then, one of the guards-ponies was slammed onto the table between Nova and Boom, wrestling with the one that had pinned him there. "GUYS!" Nova shouted. "Come on! Really? Take it somewhere else!"

Both guards quickly apologized, and then took their brawl to another nearby table in a similar fashion. "Like they were never taught manners." Nova said, shaking his head. He looked at Boom to see how he would react to that. Just another testament to how the Lunar Guard operated. Much more rowdy than the Solar branch. Quippy, brash, rough.

Boom Wing was quick to grab his drink when the two guards slammed upon the table. He would only have been angry if they spilled his beer. Once they were gone, Boom smirked at Nova's quip. "That, and nopony bothered to show the little one how to DO A LEG-SWEEP THEN MOUNT HIM!" he boomed at the two fighters. In the position they were in, the pony pressed against yet another table could simply kick out his opponent's rear legs to knock him off balance. Boom then eyed the two as they fought and casually drank his beer.

Nova watched the two fighting with enjoyment. He remembered having a few brawls in here himself. He'd been the one on the table plenty of times too. "You know, the Solar Guard came in here trying to stop a huge fight, once." He said. "Didn't end too well for them. Got their asses kicked out, then the fight went on."
