Bon Bon sighed and sat down amongst the other milling ponies, not even noticing the wreak of a particularly smelly pony as she sniffled and wiped the tears from her eyes with a forehoof. She breathed a heavy sigh. Why did she go and say something so stupid? She loved Lyra more than anypony.....more than her own parents....more than...more than her sisters, her job, her house.....more than herself. She had definitely overreacted....but...Lyra had no right to go sneakin' around! And....and...she should've told that she was going to.... Bon Bon sighed and looked ahead of her, moving along with the shuffling crowd as kisses came and went, apples purchased, and so on. She had so many ponies in front of her, still.....

Empress with more exotic pets trumps Tiger Tamer everytime!

Bon Bon smiled at Lyra's father's words, and the sincerity they carried. She gave a smile, "I'm happy to report she's doing wonderful! She's one of the most popular ponies in town! I couldn't count on our two sets of hooves how many friends she has." she paused for a moment, "And did you know she WON the running of the leaves just this last year?!" She jerked upright from the stallion as she heard the hoofsteps of Lyra and her mother heading to the room, and with a quick glance, double-checked her appearance in the reflection of a window, and then looked back to Pencil Pusher, giving a grin, and a quick whisper, "Should I be scared?"

Bon Bon glowered angrily at her fillyfriend, lying askew, hat fallen under the trot of crowding ponies, and sunglasses skewed aside and cracked under her own forceful hoof slam, "Lyra!" She could tell the pony was too exasperated to register her voice, and in reply to her plea for water, dumped a bucket of water she had already prepared when she saw Lyra faint, over her head. As the teal unicorn came to, Bon Bon frowned in annoyance, "I saw that...are my kisses not enough for you?!" Bonnie stomped her hoof again in annoyance, "Well, fine then! I'll get my own kiss from Applejack! And...." Tears welled in her eyes as she spoke, "Well, Maybe I don't need your kisses anymore!!" She reared on her rear legs and ran off into the crowd of ten or so ponies that were in line ahead of her, making sure that she was nearest taller ponies, so as not to be found as she sniffled and cried, confused on why Lyra would desire a kiss from another mare.

Bon Bon smiled warmly, perfectly, "I am!" She pulled off her jacket with her teeth and gingerly set it down on the arm of the love seat, somehow it looked folded, despite her simplicity. She turned to the side, lifting up her rear leg a bit to pull attention to her flank, showing off the twisty-tied sweets marking her talent, "I adore making sweets--and your daughter certainly loves to devour them!" Bon Bon gave a well-placed chuckle at her own comment and through a trick of the hoof, she lightly kicked the table, sending one tea cup twirling into the air, and caught the cup on the bottom of her hoof, not a drop spilled. She shut her eyes, knowing her trick impressed even the stubbornest of ponies, and took a sip from the cup, politely commenting on it's taste.

Bon Bon hummed softly to herself as she trotted through the Ponyville square, noticing a large amount of attention elicited from a particular stand....right where Applejack usually sets up her normal stand. How curious. She looked around curiously, expecting to see Lyra in the crowd some where, as her fillyfriend had a remarkable habit of finding all source of hustle and bustle whenever she can. Normally, Bon Bon was on top of any sort of event occurring in Ponyville, right up there at the front of the crowd, but since yesterday, with that....incredible massage.....amazing hooficure.....absolutely DIVINE aromatherapy...... Thinking of it brought on a heavy sigh as she remembered the tension that was released from Bonnie's muscles. Aloe and Lotus certainly were mares talented with their hooves. Pushing the thought of oversleeping out of her mind, she trotted over to find out what was going on. Through a simple amount of overhearing, and peaking over pony's shoulders, she discovered that this was, in fact, Applejack's stand and she was handing out....what? It couldn't possibly be...kisses? She stared in confusion at the stand and watched as AJ planted a kiss on the cheek of a pony that purchased a bushel of her apples. She stared, and could not help the tingly feeling of curiosity. She....she wanted a kiss, too.... Suddenly, a suspicious figure caught the corner of her eye. She squinted curiously as the figure shifted through the crowd....that tail definitely looked familiar....but she could not be certain, as the pony was wearing sunglasses and a trench coat. She kept her eyes wide, the pony kept coming in and out of site, and was getting closer and closer to the booth... Her curiosity firmly in place, she set herself in line for the orange mare's cheeky kisses.

Flitwink merely smiled at the all around distraught reaction to his medication, but when the colt inquired about his concoction, he could not help but get a bit excited. Another herbalist, perhaps? How fascinating! "Yes, it's made from a mixture straight out of the Everfree! It's the only location--in Equestria, that is--that these herbs will grow!" he explained excitedly to the stallion, "I grow them myself, my wife was an herbalist and magicker--she was a zebra, she learned much in her country--and...oh, I'm sorry! Here I am rambling! Yes, I have a salve you can put on your wings....I've used it myself a few times." He flexed his wings a bit to exemplify, and reached into a lower cabinet, pulling out a small lidded jar with his mouth, and set it down on the counter, "There you are, sir....So....are you interested in the art of herbs?" Holly's attention drifted away from the distracted doctor, and caught the site of Stormsong collapsing back onto her bed. Her eyes widened and she immediately bolted to her friend's side, catching her with an extended forearm just before her back hit the bed, "Stormsong!" She looked at the blue mare with wide, worried eyes, "What's wrong? Are you okay?! Flitwink, too, caught the commotion, and before the other pegasi had the chance to respond to his excited inquiry, he was at the blue mare's side, "Are you okay, young lady? Are you in pain somewhere?"

Flitwink chuckled softly at the blue pelted mare, "Sorry, but I actually need you to suffer through that taste--it's gotta soak in to your throat and mix with your saliva to work properly--the tea would wash that all away." He tapped his chin, "But I suppose you could have a little bit of water, though. Nurse, could you get them all a small cup of water?" The nurse in the room, who was just finishing packing up the four different bags of tea, nodded to the doctor, and walked quietly out of the room. Holly was having a heck of a battle with the pill in her mouth. Holly....couldn't handle anything bitter--or sour, or spicy. Her palette was reserved for the sweet taste of fruit--even hay, the blandest of foods, she sometimes had a hard time stomaching. She could not help as she continually gagged, sputtering the broken pill until her teeth were coated with the red substance. "You need to swallow that, filly," Flitwink said sternly to Holly, "It won't do you any good trapped in your teeth." Holly flattened her ears to her head, "Easier said than done...." The very moment the nurse came back into the room, with four tiny plastic cups of water magicked in her grip, Holly yanked one to herself and chugged the glass into her mouth, swishing the liquid around, cleaning in her teeth and under her tongue before finally forcing the liquid down. As it slid down her throat, it seemed to make a burning-cold sensation on the sides of her throat. She sighed whole-heartedly, "That was harder than fighting the FIRE!"

Bon Bon smiled quaintly at the mare as she directed her towards the shower room, and handed her the blueish robe--it wasn't quite Lyra's color....but it was still pretty. She hung it on a hook, along with her purse, and turned the faucet on in the shower area, letting the steamy water wash over her until her tight curls slithered completely straight. She sighed and set on the tile, thinking over things as she let the water clear her mane and fur of all the perfume and smells of the day. Earlier, when she had been out, somepony had kicked her garbage cart--she was still battling to get that scent out, weeks later. After staying in the shower a good ten minutes, Bon Bon finally toweled herself off and trotted out of the room, garbed in the nice robe,with a towel wrapped around her head, and headed for her host, "Okay, Lotus! I'm ready to go! All squeaky clean!" She grinned nervously--with the slightest squeak of excitement, "Okay! What's first?!"

Holly was indeed impressed as Starburst showed her to the other table containing the strawberry dishes. She shoulda known! Of course! She remembered this pegasus! She was the one who came to her stall looking for several dozen strawberries--she had had to go back home and put together a special order. This pegasus certainly looked different when she was out of her fancy clothes... "Aw, shoot! Ah knew Ah recognized ya'll from somewhere!" She magicked up a crepe and bit into it, getting a bit of whip creme on her face, which she quickly licked off,. She had the courtesy to at least swallow her food before she spoke again, though, "Yup! Them's definitely mah strawberries! Ah'd know 'em anywhere!" She beamed proudly, and finished the remainder of the crepe quickly before turning to Starburst, "Thank ya very much for usin' mah fruit in such a fancy occasion, it's much obliged!" Holly turned as she heard the light clip-clop of well-treated hooves enter the room. A very tall unicorn had entered the room--with an annoyingly smug look on her face. Holly, not the type of soul to judge purely on appearances, nodded her leave to Starburst and headed for the white mare with the pink mane, smiling widely, "Mighty fine to meet ya thar, miss!" She extended her hoof companionably, "Ah'm Holly Dash. What might yer name be?"

*eyeroll* >_> Bug wings, then. Fairy wings are esentially waspy wings, but prettier.....also..............I thought......I mean......I thought you knew I G1 .....I know what Flutterponies are/look like I just.....I was......*shrug*

Holly blinked at the pony. She had been all but lost in the quick and quaint chit chat between the two mares. It was certainly not her forte, that was for certain. Then suddenly....she was being talked to....addressed herself! The Apple Family!? "The Apple Family? Shoot! Ya'll shoulda told me! Applejack's a close bud o' mine! Ah'll hafta tell 'er how pleased as well....PUNCH Ah was to try her apples in yer punch!" She grinned widely, and trotted closer to the table, raising the ladel and a glass with her magic, making sure to get one of the decor apple slices floating in the bowl in her own cup. She took a sip and licked her lips--all too unmannnerly, "Good stuff! Ah reckon the only thing that'd make this punch any better....." She eyed Starburst with a cocked eyebrow, as though hinting, "Would be if ya'll had some of MAH fruit in it."

Ploomette's wings are not 'butterfly' wings, despite their appearance. If you notice, her pet is a PEACOCK. Her own feathers are meant to look like the splayed feathers of a male peacock. That being said, it'd stand to reason that somepony should be able to have wings like that--I'm personally against the limitation of 'wing shape' because the princess' 'can't have copies' or whatever---but that's a whole different matter.

>_>.......dear god, how do I put this all in her profile? FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFood.

As soon as Pencil Pusher left the room, Bon Bon heaved out a huge sigh, and her whole body slumped into the closest arm chair, "Good GOSH, Lyra....that was HARD." She tilted her head onto the arm of the chair, her curled locks cushioning against her cheeks as she sighed, "I thought I was gonna die...." She sat up and straightened her mane out in a nearby mirror, "This is harder than I remember--making a good impression, that is..." She dusted off her torso and heaved a sigh, blowing her forelock out of her eyes, and nudging it with her forehoof to manage it up a little bit, "I'm okay, Lyra.....I can do this!" She puffed up her chest and gave a big grin, "No problem! Bring on the mom!"

Holly flattened her ears against her head, glaring stubbornly at Granny Smith, before turning her nose up in the air, "No. Ah AIN'T havin' any. Ah don't like 'em and Ah never will!" She magicked some of the apples out of the barrel, and picked up a knife to start slicing them, while humming softly, "Ah s'pose it cain't be helped, though. MOST ponies eat veggies---Ah'll just give mine to somepony else." She placed the sliced apples into the bowl with Granny Smith's mix of vegetables, and gave an agreeable smile to Granny Smith, "Ah ain't no young'n, neither!" She added as she continued chopping apples with the elder mare, "Ah'm a full grown mare, thank ya very much!"

This is what I get for stealing my unwary neighbor's internet. XD Oh, well. 'Least it's free.
