"Nice eh?" He did a little grunted and gave one more flex. He wasn't muscular 'muscular' but more on the tone side, as much as he could be for a 12 'and a half' year old. "Years of running and and exercise."

"How many years?" Beautiful Nightmare asked quite simply in Smoothie's normal tone.

"Since I was born. Mama said that when I was born it took me no more than three seconds for me to get on my hooves and start running around," He proudly said.

"Now now, that's a little hard to believe, dont you think?" she says, but it's in a playful tone, not an irritated one. "How long have you really been exercising and working out like this?" she asks him.

"Well...the running is true,' He briefly pouted though he believed it himself, 'twas what he was told. "But if you mean like the whole getting fit doing routine stuff...four years...used to play hoofball too a lot at my old school back when I was living in Baltimare."

"Ah, okay. That's pretty impressive." She says, and she sounds impressed too. "How were you at hoofball?" she asked the colt.

Since Silverpine has nothing better to add, he shall just follow them out to the spa once they were done.

Gearstride & Cadmium

"Right....come on..come con...get you looking dandy and handsome," She said excitedly and had now moved onto the door. Cadmium stood there uncomfortably and shifted until she decided to walk over to Sandy.


"Mister Shores....as I uh...feel weird being left in a stranger's house alone while they're out.....I'll uh.......return later to uhm work on the sign..." She whispered.

He leaned in toward and brought a hoof to the side of his mouth. "Always picked first when it came to choosing teams." Which in kid language, it meant he was perty darn good.

Sandy whispered back as he trudged out, "Feel free t'take th' jars an' such for now. An' you can take a spare sheet if y'feel like sketchin' up some ideas." That was about all he had time for as the trio of "friends" whisked him out the door.

(which thread is the spa in?)

'Smoothie' does a whistle to show she's impressed."Well, I guess it's only natural for a colt as strong and tough as you are, Spark." she says, trying to feed his ego a bit.

He grinned big and dopily and slightly bobbed his head. "So uh...how goes the grocery shopping?"

"Haven't actually gotten around to it yet. I was too distracted by you." she says, again trying to keep building Spark's ego a bit. She gives him a somewhat flirtatious smile.

He smiled cheesily in return. "Mmm....hey...do you want me to keep you company? I could help carry stuff for you." He offered, though knowing Smoothie she could do it herself with her magic, but still, he wanted that offer out there.

"Nah, don't worry about it. I'm sure a big strong colt like you has better things to do with his time than carry my groceries anyway." she says to him.

[Benson]

"Oh, its fine really....I'm an aspiring gentlecolt, its the least I could do, ya know?"

"That's really sweet of you, but I just want to do this by myself, okay?" she asks with a playful grazing of his cheek with her hoof.

[Benson]

He flushed a pale shade of pink and dopily nodded. "Oh ah..okay....alrighty, have fun then, hehe."

[Mystic Muse]

"Smoothie" went off to run her errands.

/End scene.

[Benson]

Spark watched 'Smoothie' take off when an idea occurred to him, maybe he should get Smoothie a little gift, nothing fancy and something practical for the practical filly. A basket of fruit, how could one go wrong with that? It had tasty fruits, good for any occasion. And he knew just the place where he could get the bestest fruits.

He made a change of plans of running south and decided to go north east with an emphasis on east.

Some ten minutes later for the speedy speedster the farm over the tough hill began to make its appearance.

The farm and it's tinkling rivulets was as beautiful as it normally was, spreading far as a pony on the ground could see. Knack's distinct hat and general color could be seen still sitting under an apple tree, seemingly just enjoying a moment on her farm as she munched on an apple. The tree she was under also seemed comparatively bare of apples to its neighbors.

His eyes scanned the area, and smiled when he saw Knack way off in the distance. He then raced down towards the apple orchard to her where she was chillin.

"Heya Miss Tinker," He appeared, having had long accepted Knack was now a lady, even if sometimes it was still confusing weird.

"Well hey there Spark! How's yer runnin' today?"

She plucked another apple from the tree with her magic, the cores of several more around her. She'd been eating alot!!

"Tirin' but good.." He huffed, his chest expanding and falling as he tried to catch his breath, his tongue wagging a bit. "A nice burn going on in my legs....think gotta rest a bit though. How are you doing ma'am?"

"I'm doin' very well! Dunno why I'm so famished though. Cain't seem to eat enough."

Another apple down, another in her magical grasp.

[Benson]

Those apples looked really good right now....and thirst quenching. He looked at the apple longingly but snapped himself out of it. "Was your famishedness just now? Or for quite a while?"

[sildra45]

"About two days, I reckon."

She tossed him an apple right from the tree.

He happily caught the apple and took a nice juicy bite. "Thanks a bunch. Heheh."

"Mmm, have ya gone to the doctor about it?"

"It's just hunger hun. Nothing to worry about. It's probably what my aura decided to affect this time."

She nodded to him.

"If'n you want some to take, I can git ya fixed up."

[Benson]

"Actually...I was thinkin' if ah...well...I wanted to get a uh...special friend of mine a nice gift....so I considered a fruit basket...and you have the bestest fruit this side of town and stuff," Spark said and enjoyed another bite of the apple, it was extra tasty.

"Certainly. You've done well enough to have some privileges here. After all, I wouldn't have this many nice apples if'n you and yer family didn't help keep those thieving critters away. There's some baskets inthe storage house. If'n you want, i can help you pick some. Is it somepony I know?"
