Tia blushed, but couldn't help squirming around in her seat. "I'm glad you're so undertanding," she said, and dipped her head, but smiled at Moonlite happily. "This really is a wonderful revelation," she stuttered, still nervous; and yet more confident than she had been so far.

(Sorry, I just started back at School for the year so my replies may be slow - I'm exhausted!) Tia blushed badly and looked at Moonlite. "Yo-You do? I mean, I do know that we just met but.. It doesn't have to be rushed, or anything, right?" she was shaking a little, and now looking at the table cloth. Her stomach was too knotted up to finish her meal. She glanced up at the mare and blushed again at the sight of her. "Right?"

A huge wave of sadness swept through Tia as she heard Moonlites statement. She lowered her head sadly. "But, you're amazing! What's not to love about you?" she exclaimed, before realising what she said. "I mean like about you! Not that I mean I couldn't love you, because I could but-" she stopped, and looked down at her plate, completely and utterly embarrassed.

Tip Toes shook her head and nodded her thanks as the waitress brought the orders over to the table. She smiled to Moonlite. "No, I too live alone. Although I have always wanted a pet. Do you find it lonely? Living alone?" she inquired shyly, and she began to dig into the fries.

Tia let out a nervous high pitched giggle and looked anywhere but at Moonlite. She tapped her hooves to fill the silence as she waited for her fries. Soon, the silence became too overwhelming. "Umm, do you have any pets?" she asked, hoping this wasn't too random of a question.

Satin gladly took the towel and nodded her thanks while she began to dry off her mane. "What a great start to my vacation, huh?" she glanced back to her wings and shook them out. "I guess its karma or something at work here! My captain is always telling me to get my mane cut, and the one chance I get to get away from him, and it's ruined!" she huffed angrily and pulled her wings back into her sides. "Honestly!" She realised she was probably being a little bit intimidating, and smiled warmly at the other mare. "Oh, sorry! I'm Satin Ribbon. You might have heard of me. Or maybe you haven't, I don't know how famous we are." she shrugged, and didn't bother to elaborate. "'ll gladly take you up on that offer, however! I love ice cream." she said, with a rather dopey grin.

Tia nodded to the waitress. "Two, please." The waitress nodded and trotted off. Tip Toes turned to Moonlite. "So, working in a library. You must know a lot about a lot," she said, nervously picking at the table cloth with her hoof. "I'm not exactly a scholar of a mare.." she said, a little ashamed.

Tia chuckled to herself and smiled once her hair was tied. "Thank you! It really is getting too long." She waved the waitress over and exchanged small pleasantries before ordering. "I think I'll have a small portion of hay fries and some lemon water. How about you .. Moonlite?" she asked slowly, blushing a little as she said her companions name.

Tia blushed and giggled girlishy. "Just a simple tie is fine." She blushed even worse at the mare's comment. "Oh, I get regular treatments at a salon. I'm a spoiled little daddy's girl," she giggled again nervously. She paused and looked up at Moonlite. "Maybe I'll treat you sometime," she suggested, still smiling.

Tia couldn't help feeling just a little bit disappointed as the two made their way outside into the air. Why did she always have to be so shy when it came to situations like this? She sighed to herself and lead the way forward to a small café on the corner of the street, just a few minutes from the studio. She flipped her mane from her face with an irritated huff as she pushed open the door with a soft ping. Her mane was getting too long. She needed to visit a salon soon. Tip Toes led the way to a small corner table and looked at Moonlite. "Um, can you do me a favour? I need to tie up my mane." She smiled shyly and held up a blue ribbon. "If you could help that would be wonderful."

"Oh good! I know this sweet little café just down the road! It shouldn't take two minutes to get there!" Tia trilled, and smiled. She was happy to have something else to focus on. She trotted to Moonlite and bumped her gently with her rump. She grabbed her coat from the back of the chair and made her way back into the main room.

(Sorry, been stressed lately, completely forgot. x_x ) Tip Toes looked up at the mare nervously and said nothing. She didn't know what to say. She didn't want to be too forward, so she sat in silence, shuffling her hooves. She was all too aware of the blush on her pink pelt. She hoped that it wouldn't be too noticeable. She eventually cast a shy smile at the mare, and made to say something, but nerves made the words catch in her throat. "Would you like to continue your lesson, or .. we could spend the day out instead?" she suggested shakily.

Dinky flashed her an uneasy and over-exaggerated grin. "Er, yeah! I don't know how it can be wrong!" she squealed, peering around nervously. "How do we even get home?" She jumped up. "Oh no! What if we get stuck here forever?"

Pesto felt the pride well up inside her. "Thank you!" she said to Twilight, smiling at the sight before her. She then rolled her eyes in Grey's general direction as she stooped to pick up Dirt Buster. "Well, if I remember correctly, you didn't leave the nursery until the nurse threatened to call Hospital Security," she retorted, amusement sparkling in her eyes as she cuddled into the foal.

Pesto shook her head. She didn't want to be the over-concerned mother who never let anyone near her children. She smiled warmly to Twilight and tilted her head. "As long as you're careful with her, of course I don't mind," she said cheerfully as she held out the filly towards her.
