"Tough day, Ruby?"
"I don't know if you could even spell the word.
One drink please."
"Coming right up. Sliding over to you at a moment of your chose."
"Thanks."
"So what's up?"
"Okay. What would you do if everything you tried so hard desperately to fix turned out blank? You came back to life to fix your wrong, and right your right; but in the process people are just so…..so..."
"Not understanding?
…Treat you like you're different?"
"Yes. How did you…."
"Well, a girl once came to my moms store and when I told her what you just told me now, do you know what she said to me?"
"What?"
"I don't know. Words are easy to forget…..but moments aren't. She built me a Mermaid and told me...you can shine no matter what you're made of. You never know, deep down inside; you might find you share common interests with your persuers."
"I don't think I said that Jo...Jo....Jordan!!!!!!!!!!"
"Hi. Ruby."
"Wha…wha…..wha…..what are you doing here? Do your friends know you are here? You could get in serious trouble. Wait…..does your mom know you are here?"
"Does yours? So chill out, Ruby. I could be hanging with my friends, but...…..I rather have them hang with me."
"OVER HERE, JORDAN. WHO YOU TALKING TO?"
"RUBY!!!
I'm talking to the Godslayer, Ruby."
"Well don't be greedy. Bring her over here so we can share in the fun. I am sure she has a lot to catch us up on, as do we."
"Uhh…actually I just came to...."
"Come on, Ruby. They're not going to turn on you."
"Uhmmm…..*Erreheerrrmmm.*
Hi again."
"Hi? Oh, come on Ruby. You can do better then that. We're not strangers. Come over here and…"
*Oof*
"Wooo…I....You've gotten stronger since last I saw you, Tiger; but I would like my feet to touch the ground again, thank you."
"Ohh…I…Of course. Kinda got carried away."
"Let me in on that action. Can't slip by us unnoticed Ruby; in your restaurant of all places. I mean what the hey?"
"Jacklyn, hey is for horses, and this.."
*Ooof*
"Is for you."
"Thanks…..I think?"
"So what's new with you? How's the School going? Getting along with your other friends just swell, and your you know who?"
"She's not my…..*Whoooo*.
Frankly, I don't know what she is at this point."
"Here you go, Ruby. Sit down, and tell us.
How can you not know what Rainbow is? She is either a friend or she isn't one. You can't just….unchange yourself from being one."
"She didn't."
"Huuuuh!!!!"
"I did."
*Chug…chug….chug…chug...chug*
"Wooo…wooo…..Slow down there Ruby. This may be your restaurant, but that doesn't mean if you slip no ones going to pay. What brought this on? Did she do something you didn't like?"
"No. No. She was perfect, and did everything right. She needed to come back for help, and she did, but…"
"What did you just say?"
" 'She did everything right'?"
"No. Before that."
" 'She was perfect.' "
"Was perfect…or is perfect?"
"Hmmmmmmm. Maybe I need to remember that."
"Yes…..but I also know one more thing you need to remember."
"G, what's that? Why are you….oh no. no. no. no. Song is what gets others in a good mood, not to get yourself in one."
"Come on, how is this any different from you saying you sing in the shower every morning to get you in a good mood?"
"I said that?"
"Please."
"Uhhhh."
"Yeah, Ruby.
We are asking nicely. We even said 'please.' "
"Rainbow?"
"In the flesh.
I chased you around my Castle. I'll chase you around here as well if need be."
"Rainbow, I…."
"Wooo. What do you mean by chasing her around the Castle? Was it for fun or…."
"Rainbow, you are not in the wrong, but I. I told you I would never take my eyes off of you, and you told me you would never stop chasing me; so it was only logical that one of us would break first. Thankfully, that wasn't…."
"Just shut up and kiss me already."
