Virgin Flame arrives in Baltimare and makes her aqua intense with the staff of a Cathedral there. Spark goes back to Blackwood, helping a rebel and several wolves. Iron takes a train off to the mountains where there is said to be treasure. Silver is pleasantly surprised to wake up to the world-not-ending. Dark Star goes home for the night, disturbed by the forces corrupting the youth, and left to contemplate his role in stopping it.

Hyena friend is hugged

He leans onto the couch and Silver, and his ears come down. He says nothing. He's fluffy, muscular, and fat all at once, almost as large as Silver.

He makes for a wonderful hug partner. Silver continues to hug for a minute, before releasing him with a pet.

"Alright, I have some things to clean up. I am going to look around for cleaning supplies."

“Okay” Mala says. Paper Clipping’s just continues staring. As Mala blocks the path out between the coffee table and the couch, Silver will have to walk past Paper clipping on the other couch, and all the way around the table to get out.

"Okay" She turns her head, and then turns her eyes back to Amber with a small smile. She turns completely in, and starts yelling,

"Mustard! Mustard! There's a filly here asking for you. She says her name is Amber."

There seems to be a reply of "Coming mom," but really precisely what is spoken is hard to discern. Amber is waiting outside for quite a number of seconds.

"He's coming" she turns and answers to Amber, and there is a still longer delay. After perhaps as long as a minute in total, Amber sees the yellow form of Mustard trim exit out beside his mother, wearing a brown, presumably leather jacket that Amber could be forgiven for thinking was made of burlap, and with a smile and exited demeanor expressing genuine pleasant surprise at Amber's presence.

"Hello" he says to her. "Nice to see you. What brings you by?"

“Uh, let me get some things.”
He ducks into the house, and there’s some sort of back and forth between he and his mother that lasts several lines, that sounds like “where are you going?” and “did you do x?”

He comes back outside. If he grabbed anything, it must be in his jacket pocket.

“I’m ready” he says, walking next to Amber, and looking out past her onto the street, before again turning to her.

“So… where is this place?”

>>152303
Paper Clipping is laying on the couch, so it’s simple enough to get by him.

Now here is the question: where are the cleaning supplies?

A helpful aging earth pony stallion provides an answer.

It’s approximately a mile and a half away, mostly west but slightly north.

Not too far away at all with a good pace. Amber strikes up a conversation with Mustard on the way. "I'm sorry for keeping you up so late last night, I'm not an owl and I sure as hay didn't want to be one. You didn't get into too much trouble, did you?"

“An owl?… No, it’s okay. My mother knew I was working late last night, so I wasn’t really expected back before ten anyways. Fortunately my mother was working day shift, so she was asleep before I was supposed to be home, and my sister was too. So… I didn’t get caught. I don’t think she’d like me going to that place last night.”

She tosses her head lackadaisically, grinning. "Well, I doubt she would find out, I wouldn't keep you long anyway. This town has so many things to do, might as well try them out. I can only imagine the number of places to explore."

I wouldn't really think you could swim in the winter, to be honest. Well, at least outside of the ocean. The ocean is probably warm enough. But even then, it's pretty cold for it."

Mustard Trim turns his head to Amber. Whether his right ankle fails him momentarily and he collapses to his right, or whether he physically recoils at the word and jumps back, Mustard Trim bounces a foot and a half away from Amber.
