Boy, that week was a real blast, huh? I think I'm gonna miss being Kyo-chan for awhile...

[He gives a dreamy sigh as he runs a paw through his own, short hair. Easy come, easy go. At the very least, maybe Kyouko will appreciate what he did to her hair.

But being nostalgic for the body swap event isn't the main reason why Teddie is addressing the scrolls this fine morning, oh no.

This is business.]

Anyway, once upon a time ago, I was like "OH YEAH, I'm totally gonna go to school 'cause that's the mature thing to do" and everyone was all "No Teddie, school's closed for the summer!" so Kyo-chan got me a job instead and it was really, REALLY fun!

But now it sounds like everybody's all going to school, even Nana-chan, and I'm starting to bearcome super jealous. I don't know what the heck I should be doing! My schedule's way too busy to fit in both work and school, I'd have to take out a nap and I don't wanna even think about dropping snack time. I dunno how Yosuke manages both...

So I guess my question is, what would you choose? And how much do turtle babysitters run for?

[Fluttershy nodded.] All right...I have some things here to take care of turtles too, but anything you think you need for her will certainly help.

Of course, of course, but I'll have to inspect them myself. Peek-chan's a picky little lady and has extremely high standards for someone so short.

There's also her special pillow and bowl, along with all her toys. Maybe I should make a list...

[Pet care is serious business.]

[If there was ever a pony who would understand that, it's Fluttershy.]

Of course. I'll be glad to show you and Peek-chan everything when you two arrive.

W-We'll be right over!

[And Teddie rolls up his scroll.

It'll take him awhile to get there, having to gather everything plus the turtle who started it all, but worry not. He'll show up eventually.]

[That's perfectly fine, it gives Fluttershy enough time to gather her own turtle supplies, ready to show Teddie and Peek for the evaluation.

When they do arrive, they'll find the door open, with Fluttershy and her animal friends doing a little cleaning up.]

[Teddie does his own peeking as he slowly opens the door, making sure someone is, in fact, there. Peek rests on his furry blonde head, taking her own look as well. There's a bag with him, filled with most of the supplies he's already named off, along with some veggies he swiped from the Agency fridge.]

Ding dong, Teddie's home!

Oh, hello...! Come on in...!

[She's fixing up a few of the top shelves, but soon enough she's landed gently in front of the both of them.]

[Slipping in, he sets his bag down and gives Fluttershy a large smile.]

Okay, time to dazzle us!

[Peek looks up, expectantly. She's heard Fluttershy has some things she might be into. Turtle things.]

[Fluttershy smiles and nods, indicating a table where she's set up all her turtle supplies. And for each item, she goes into a brief explanation of what its for and why it would be good for a turtle.

Of course, she knows that each turtle is different. So she'll naturally take note of anything Peek approves or disapproves of.]

[Seeing them all and even getting explanations causes Peek's eyes to literally sparkle. Everything seems so nice and well thought out, it's obvious even by non-turtle people she's impressed.

It's Teddie, however, who only nods and seems to be judging everything. Maybe it's not the turtle who's picky...]

I see, I see. And where will she be sleeping?

[Yes, she's very used to picky pet owners as well.]

Well, that really depends...I have a few spaces picked in mind for her, but really, it's up to her.

[Looking up at Peek, she smiles.]

Is there anywhere here you'd like to sleep, Peek-chan?

[Peek looks around and gives her best turtle shrug she can muster. She really doesn't care, just about everything beats the woods.]

Oh oh, just don't forget her pillow!

[Digging into his bag, he pulls out a rather lovely decorative pillow, lined with gems on the side and everything. Someone's spoiled.]

And she needs her special shell massage before she goes to sleep, I got her polish somewhere...

[Fluttershy smiled and nodded, gently taking the pillow.]

Yes, of course we can't forget that.

[Hey, Angel gets to sleep on the couch, she can't talk about spoiling animals.]

Will you show me how to massage her shell? I wouldn't want to get it wrong...

You bet I will! Hang on for just a sec...

[Digging into the bag, he finally pulls out a small bottle of, erm, water? Sure, why not. Water can be polish, too. Placing Peek down, he gets on his knees, pours some water into his paws, and proceeds to rub her shell with his wet hands.]

Now, you wanna get all your fingers into it-

[Wait.]

[....Yeah, that might be a problem.]
