Scroll twenty two

[There is a rustle of blankets and a half-snore-half-snort sound over the journals as one (1) baby dragon wakes up from his week-long sleep. The last thing he remembered was being at home, falling, and then he was going to...

He pauses, looking around. Okay. This isn't Equestria. This is Paradisa. And he's definitely not falling to his 'death' right now.

Oh, but then he remembers what happened here, what he did. He is in so much TROUBLE. He grabs his journal, not even noticing right away that it's almost empty]

Oh man, I am so sorry for what happened, guys. I didn't hurt anypony, did I? I'll do anything to make it up to you. And I'll fix anything I broke. And uh...I'll find all the stuff I took and I'll give it back, I swear.

I'm really, really, really sorry.

Everypony will forgive you, and soon, things will be back to normal.

[... as normal as paradisa gets, anyway.]

You really think so, Fluttershy?

Of course, it wasn't your fault.

It...kinda was. I mean, I didn't understand it all at the time, but it's a dragon thing.

But I know you didn't really mean it! You don't steal and scare and roar at people normally... this is the real you.

[He decides not to say that's a natural draconic nature, it wouldn't help with her dragon phobia any]

No, I never would do it normally.

That's because your our sweet little Spike.

You bet I am, the one and only. [Yup, okay, feeling better enough to wallow in praise a bit now]

[with that settled-]

Oh, and you won't believe it - Princess Luna is here too!

She...she is.

[Looong pause] Evil Princess Luna or Adjusting to Society Princess Luna?

[Pause.]

The...second one?

Oh...good. Because Evil Princess Luna would be...kinda bad.

I don't think she's evil... She said some very nice things to me.

Well, that's good! That's one less thing to worry about.

She seemed sad about being 'trapped' again, so we should really try to make her feel welcome.

We can do that, no problem. And this place has got to be better than being stuck alone on the moon, at least.

A-huh. And she only lost her Cutie Mark, so if we ever need her help with magic, we can count on her.

It still sucks to loose a cutie mark, but it IS good she has her magic.
