(Fluttershy's not the only pony to go through some unexpected changes: The screen turns on to showcase the Pegasus performing some spins and feats that normally aren't possible for her as a human. She hasn't tried sleeping on a cloud yet, but give her time and she may end up all wet.)

ATTENTION LADIES, GENTLEMEN AND PONIES OF ALL AGES! WATCH IN AWE AS THE INCREDIBLE RAINBOW DASH -YES, THIS IS THE REAL RAINBOW DASH IN TRUE PEGASUS FORM!- PERFORMS FEATS OF STRENGTH AND ABILITIES NEVER BEFORE SEEN AND MAY NEVER BE SEEN AGAIN AFTER TODAY!

Um, Pinkie...? Maybe now's not the best time for tricks and-oh, dear! I-I think this is what I was talking about before...! I hope she pulls up in time; do you think she'll pull up in time?

Ay-yi-yi-yi-yi-yi!

(The Terminal fully catches Rainbow crashing onto the roof, skidding to a stop with her clothes slightly torn due to the crash but she's otherwise unhurt. She's a little out of it, though.)

...Anypony have ideas on a cool place to take somepony else for a first date in this town...? Th-this doesn't mean I'm asking for myself...! It's for someone else!

Oh my...! She didn't pull up in time.

She's totally asking for advice, for anyone who was wondering.

(The screen clicks off with Rainbow offering an annoyed glare in Pinkie's direction and an added Pinkie! I'm not asking for me...! before vanishing from view. She'll be okay in a few moments if anyone's up there with her or chooses to head up to her location to check on her; the Pegasus recovers from crashes like this quite often!)

(OOC: For action moments, she'll be on the roof of the main housing area since her apartment's on the 5th floor.)

Why why WHY am I not in town anymore?! Why did I choose to leave for the holy forest before all this?!

[Sigh]

You're in Hospitown right?

Uh...yeah, of course I am! I'm guessing you took that one Digimon up on her offer?

Yeah, I heard there were pirates.

[Pouts and mumbles]
No one told me there'd be Pegasus and unicorns back in Hospitown though. Rotten luck.

[Sigh]

Anyway there's not much to do in Hospitown since there's only the one restaurant. You'll have to take the train to one of those towns we stopped in on the way, or go have a romantic outdoors sort of date under the stairs among the forest and nature and stuff. Maybe a picnic.

...Uh, thanks; didn't you hear? Not asking for me, but somepony else.

Sure, that's what they all say.

Seriously: somepony else.

Well there are only a few ponies here...and only Fluttershy is really so shy she wouldn't be able to ask this question.

And I'm pretty sure she's already been out on dates before.

That looked like a pretty bad crash. Are you alright??

[She seems like it, but he has to check, just to be sure.]

...Yeah, I'll be fine! Been a while since I crashed as a pony.

Aren't you one of Fluttershy's friends? Think I went to your birthday party.

My brother's, yeah. [Not that it's always easy to tell the difference between them sometimes, anyway.]

Yeah. Awesome party, and I've been to all the best ones back in Ponyville!

Heh, thanks! Glad you liked it.

Y'know, Fluttershy helped me plan it. I don't think I could've pulled it off without her.

Hehe, yeah! Fluttershy's one of a kind.

(A Pegasus pony who prefers the sanctity of the ground. Definitely one of a kind.)

Yeah, that's for sure...

[Wow, that sounded a little fond.]

[There's a big lion muzzle just kind of...tilted, and staring. After seeing what Trixie looks like now it's pretty obvious to Kovu who this is.]

...Bit of a show-off, aren't you?

...I'm the fastest flyer in ALL of Equestria! It's not showing off if I can back it up; I'm not called Rainbow and Dash for nothing!

(She's pretty sure the lion's her old roommate since he'd discussed different types of animals -and ponies, or horses- back when she first arrived; hence, not flipping out.)

This happened to you, too?

Yeah. Feels pretty good to be back to normal.

[He flashes a fully-fanged grin.]

Hehe, glad to see you're smiling again!

(She spreads her wings like she's going to fly, grinning back at him.)

[Let's just...deflect that observation.]

And you're acting the same as ever.

Duh, of course! Not gonna change who I am 'cause I'm a pony or a human. The heart that beats inside is all Rainbow Dash no matter what I look like.

(Twilight would've said more profound things, but Rainbow kinda has the right message.)

[That just makes Kovu remember how sensitive he was about that scar...until just now, anyway.]

Maybe I should try thinking like that if we go back to being human again.

[Not that he wants to.]

Right! (A beat.) ...Kovu, I know we weren't roommates for that long but if you ever wanted to hang out and talk I'd be up for it. Tell me what your world's like, that sort of thing.

...You don't wanna know what that place was like, trust me.

[But he's done sulking about all of that now.]

Wouldn't mind hanging out, though.

Sure! Maybe sometime this week if we're still normal...we can see if a lion can outrace the fastest Pegasus in all of Equestria.

(Definitely a challenge she's throwing out, and the grin only solidifies it.)

A race? All right, you're on.

[After that little display the only way he's gonna win is if she crashes, but there's a pretty good chance of that happening, from how it looks.]

[Salamon and Port are both watching the feed in surprise.]

Wow.
It looks like there's more.

Should we tell Tony?
Later, this is fun to watch.
