[Spike had busied his mostly quiet days as best he could, waiting for when his dear friends would return from their trip and he could bug them some more. Today he's attempted more training with his little wooden sword. by 'training' this means he's tried to stab a punching bag in the gym and failed more or less consistently.

After his ego has been bruised enough, he opens his journal]

Man, there had to be an easier way to learn how to use a sword. One that isn't all about pain or getting your butt kicked by an inanimate object.

[Though his moral objection to hurting anything probably doesn't help in this matter]

[Catelyn]

So hey, is there anything you'd like to do today? Arya told me to keep you cheered up.

[persequor]

Did you think it was going to be easy?

[huffythedragon]

Not exactly... [Yes]

I think I'm doing it wrong.

[persequor]

Because you are.

[huffythedragon]

How do you know? You can't even see.

[persequor]

I know you.

[huffythedragon]

I could be secretly good at it! You don't know that!

[persequor]

Your whining says otherwise.

[huffythedragon]

I'm not whining.


You're whining.

[persequor]

No, I'm not.

[huffythedragon]

ANYWAY. [Yeah not even going to admit he's being a brat about this] I was doing pretty okay up until the punchbag swung back and knocked me to the ground.

[persequor]

[ Snickering. ]

[huffythedragon]

What? It's not funny! It's not my fault I've never done it before.

[huffythedragon]

What? It's not funny! It's not my fault I've never done it before.

[persequor]

My brothers started sparring when they were younger than you.

[huffythedragon]

Yeah well. We don't need to know how to spar in Equestria.

[persequor]

So my baby brother can put you on your back.

[huffythedragon]

That's because he's practised and I haven't before.

[persequor]

Rickon hasn't. He's too little. But he still could.

[huffythedragon]

No way!

[persequor]

You cry when I hit you. At least Rickon knows to hit back. [ Don't you be doubting that her brothers can beat the crap out of you B( ]

[huffythedragon]

I don't agree with violence! There's nothing wrong with that.

[persequor]

People get killed when they don't fight.

[huffythedragon]

Not in Equestria!

[persequor]

You're not in Equestria!

[huffythedragon]

Yeah, I kind of figured that. The fact there are only like two ponies here is a giveaway.
