[016] Visual - Private to May!Twi and Yukiko

[ponymechanic]

Girls? I need to ask you two something.

I've tried beating this around the bush and I'm sure Flash had told you two what I tried to do so I'm just going to be straight with this.

Back down in the dungeon when you two pretended to get kidnapped so me and Yu would stop fighting, who was the "Pale Pony" you two hired to help you with that?

I understand if neither of you will tell me, but I have to know the truth. One way or the other.

[Even since his training with Minato and Trixie, it's been bugging with the way Minato just took the hit with his persona just like the "Pale Pony".

Perhaps Yu's truth seeker attitude has started to rub off on Tails.]

I know I should be focusing on the real deal, but I can't let this go.

...That's still bothering you?

[Visual]

[ponymechanic]

[He nods.]

Yes. I just want some closure, that's all.

[Honestly he's not really expecting them to tell him.]

(To be honest, Twilight nearly forgot this was even a thing. It was so long ago...or at least it felt that way. She's been damn busy since then. If she were as on-edge as she was a few days ago, she'd be having herself a good laugh right now. Instead, she kind of feels bad. She sighs.)

It was Minato. We asked for his help in getting you and Yu to stop fighting.

[His eyes widens for a second before he makes a faceplam, er hoof.]

Horse apples! I knew I wasn't seeing things. Wow I am stupid.

[He sighs before calming himself down.]

I knew that last part since Yukiko explained it when she got mad at us. It was really dumb of us to pretend to fight in front of you guys.

[Visual]

[magicalrealist]

Yeah.

(She's not gonna argue that second point. It pissed Yukiko off greatly and Twilight's not going to just forget that.)

So can we finally put this behind us?

[Visual]

[ponymechanic]

Yes.

[He says that almost too quickly.

Sure he won't do anything now that the case is closed, but he's currently thinking in his head what kind of prank he could pull to get back at Minato for not only tricking him and Yu with the "Pale Pony" stuff, but for tricking him and Trixie for that training too.]

Should I keep this a secret from Yu?

[Visual]

[magicalrealist]

(Well that's not suspicious or anything.)

...I would say yes just so we can all move on, but you should speak to Yukiko about that. That's her call.

[Visual]

[ponymechanic]

[Nope. Totally not suspicious.]

That is true.

At least now this case is closed.

[Visual]

[magicalrealist]

I hope so.

(She kinda thought it was months ago.)

[gigglesnortpriestess]

Wait, you're still on about that?

[Seriously, it's old. Yukiko doesn't even care at this point.]

I'll even tell Yu-kun myself but he'll probably be the same way.

[Visual]

[ponymechanic]

Yeah I was. I guess Yu's starting to rub off on me a little.

I'm fine with either you or I telling him honestly.

[Visual]

[gigglesnortpriestess]

I'll tell him.

[And considering Pale Pony showed herself, this is nothing.]

[Visual]

[ponymechanic]

[He shrugs.]

Okay, if you say so.

I hope he won't get mad at me for doing this.
