>You smile at him invisibly once she’s out of the room.
“Hate to see her leave, love to watch her go?”
>”Yes… no! Maybe? I don’t know… could you repeat the question?”
“You like her, right?”
>”Well I-I mean, of course. Who wouldn’t like Rarity? That’s the Element of Generosity for you. She’ll stick her neck out for a complete stranger like you!”
“I was pretty surprised. She seems like a good Mare.”

“What do you mean by Element of Generosity though?”
>”Huh? Oh, that. Geez… there’s a lot you’re out of the loop on. I’ll try to sum things up for you while I get my backup costume.”

>”That’s just not her style. Don’t even try to call her princess. She doesn’t like it.”
“What kind of princess hates being a princess?”
>”It’s not that she hates it. She’s always looking for new ways to take on more responsibility as a princess. She’s just not used to it I guess. It just makes her a little uncomfortable. Aha! Found it.”
>Spike pulls out a little purple dragon costume which he climbs into.
“I thought you were a dragon.”
>”I-I am a dragon! But you know, a Dragon is the scariest thing in Equestria, so now I’m like a… a DOUBLE Dragon.”
