Ask the Student Six - Asks 251 - 260

*pop*

Gallus: And how much damage did it cost to have the school repaired over the weekend?

Yona: Headmare Twilight said something about Emergency Yakyakistani Refurbishment Bursary. Said it was covered!

*pop*

Ocellus: Wow! Princess Twilight really plans for everything!

Smolder: Clearly not everything, or she would have had shock-absorbers built around the mountain.

Sandbar: Oh, and she wouldn’t have let a little filly try to destroy the concept of magic from within her own school

*pop*

Silverstream: Come on! You can’t plan for everything!

Gallus: Doesn’t stop her from trying. Speaking of which, when are you allowed to be removed from that bubble-wrap, Yona?

*pop*

Yona: After weekend *grumble*..

Sandbar: I don’t see the logic to the naming conventions, really. It just seems to be a pick of your parts.

Ocellus: Yeah. In most cases it’s based around the head of the creature. Which is why Hippogriffs are “Chicks”, Minotaurs are “Calves” and Hydras are “Hatchlings”

Gallus: We probably do it just to spite you.

Yona: Griffon isn’t very nice! Changeling friend!”

Gallus: No, I mean “We” as Griffons overall. We excel at being inconvenient.

Silverstream: Sounds about right.

Smolder: So confusing. Why can’t you be normal like the rest of us?

Silverstream: How could you say something like that about a baby so cute and cuddly and adorable and fluffy and-

Ocellus: -Theoretical.

Sandbar: Why’re you even taking this so personally?

Gallus: I think Silver’s taking it personally because of her pride of cuteness and adorableness. I’m just doing it for the sake of everygriff who wasn’t here who would obviously grumble like an old fart.

Yona: What does Griffon himself think about small creature name?

Gallus: I’d probably side with Smolder on this one, personally. Both sound ridiculous.

Smolder: Great minds think alike.

Silverstream: Gallus! How could you?!?

Silverstream: I think you’re taking this a little too seriously ‘Celly! Cats did nothing wrong!

Gallus: I’m sure they’ve done plenty wrong. Look at Professor Rarity’s monster.

Sandbar: Yeah, It’s just a fun thing to watch people struggle to not think about something deliberately

Ocellus: Oh I see! It’s like a feedback system, where you try not to think about it, but by trying to not think about it, you’re thinking about it!

Gallus: Wait. Are you all ignoring me?

Smolder: Exactly ‘Cell!

Gallus: STOP “NOT THINKING ABOUT CATS”!

Yona: Anycreature hear a noise?

Yona: Why Sandbar so protective of ball?

Sandbar: It’s bouncy! Proper bouncy balls are hard to come by these days.

Silverstream: I guess. But you’re treating it more like an egg than a ball! Being super protective!

Smolder: So where did you get the ball?

Sandbar: It was floating in the waters outside the school. I got it after Gallus pushed me in.

Silverstream: Gallus!

Gallus: Hey! Ocellus pushed me in directly after! I think we need to even everything out and drag her in too.

Ocellus: Hey! Stay away!

Silverstream: Heeeey Yona! Whatcha eating?

Yona: *swallows* Rock Candy.

Gallus: Wait, you can eat that stuff? I thought it was just a phase Professor Pinkie was going through.

Smolder: Oooh. Does it taste like Gems? Tell me it tastes like gems!

Yona: *blinks* Rock candy tastes like rock candy. Yona not eaten gems before.

Smolder You should! They’re a delicacy. It fills your belly in all the right ways.

Ocellus: I don’t know. I tried Gems once when shape-shifting and it just felt like i was swallowing gravel. Yick!

Sandbar: Ouch

Smolder: I know! isn’t it great!?!

Smolder: And the Griffon is knocked down another peg. How’re you doing down there Gallus?

Gallus: Casually sulking whilst studying.

Sandbar: So, the usual?

Gallus: Eeeyup.

Ocellus: I quite like that our teachers aren’t so “Prim and Proper”. It makes them seem more like their elements?

Silverstream: Don’t let Professor Rarity hear you say that. “Prim and Proper” is here big thing!

Yona: Yona agrees. Professor is Yak-like with manners and dresses!

Sandbar: DEFINITELY Don’t let Professor Rarity hear you describe her as Yak-like...

Silverstream: She’s all tuckered out!

Smolder: *mumbles* ima burn down the room....mmmm...

Gallus: So even in her sleep, she’s a pyromaniac.

Yona: She is Dragon in sleep. Why so surprised?

Gallus: I’m actually not, which is concerning since we’re in adjoining rooms...

Sandbar: It’s 3 in the afternoon. Why is she so tired?

Ocellus: She was doing a bunch of fire tricks outside with the other students. Turns out if she uses her fire too much and too quickly, it makes her sleepy.

Silverstream: So you’re saying Smolder should slow down and focus more on smouldering?

Smolder: mmmmhm....burn all the puns...*snores*

Ocellus: I always thought Silverstream would be more of a Buckball player, rather than spectator.

Smolder: Why’s that?

Yona: Hippogriff very athleth... athle... alilitlhe...........sporty!

Sandbar: Now to mention how hyperactive she is. She’d probably be a star buckball player if she took part!

Gallus: Well I guess she has spent her whole life underwater swimming. Plenty of time to work up those muscles.

Silverstream: Hey guys! Look what I can do with my eyes!

Gallus: Nevermind. She’s just being Silverstream.

Ocellus: Sandbar! Gallus! Stop putting buckets above my bedroom door!

Gallus: Well you won’t go near the lake outside ever since you pushed me into it.

Sandbar: So we thought we’d bring the water to you!

Smolder: Yeeeeah. Normally I’d be all for this, but the water makes the carpet soggy so can you not?

Yona: Can Smolder not just dry carpet with fire?

Smolder: I tried that once. turns out Carpets aren’t the most heat-resistant objects in the room.

Silverstream: I remember that! The great inferno of a month ago... Good times.

Sandbar: I ran out of marshmallows that day
