7 Bees [visual][magically locked from "Harvester" and Hain]

[honeycombing]

[Hey, everyone, say hello to a bedsheet hanging over the side of a bed. Oh wait, its just that somepony is under the bed! And that somepony is Honeycomb. And she doesn't seem to want to come out for some reason. Also, not to give her location away, she might be hiding under one of the beds in the commune]

Um...everypony, I have a super important question.

So...suppose there's a really...complicated thing going on with a friend of mine. Uh. One of my bees. Armand. Yeah.

[At this, a bee comes from under the covers, a part of it twitching. Wait no, its waving rather shyly.]

So, uh, Armand has something very, very important to tell somepony. Actually, a lot of someponies.

[ Cue some bees wearing pony costumes. The scroll zooms in on the action and it is clear that the bees are the ones actually holding and controlling the scroll. Aw, look, there's even a Celestia one.]

There's a problem with...well, the pony in question doesn't like Armand due to, uh, issues with bees. Like...generations of hostility and misunderstandings on both sides level of issues. And if Armand tries to approach the pony directly he could get in a looooooot of trouble because he's a bee. Like. Um. Eternal banishment levels of trouble.

[Cue the Celestia-dressed bee bringing out a very tiny paper bag how do bees even get anything that size and places it on Armand the bee's head. After a moment, Armand tosses it off, clearly not amused because what happened to the box they'd agreed on for this demonstration--]

And, uh, suppose it turned out Armand was pretending the whole time to be, um...a butterfly friend. So everypony was all "Hey Armand the butterfly, how are you!"

[At this, the bee looks behind him towards under the bed, looks back at the bees, then back under the bed. Shaking its head, it slips under for a few moments before coming back out in an admittedly fabulous purple-based butterfly getup. Complete with make up.]

But he wasn't really a butterfly even though he ended up with friends from it. And then somepony did stuff and another somepony might have found out about the fact Armand might not have been a butterfly but now they're taken away by the bad rainbows and also Armand might have takenlotsofpicturesofeveryponywhennoponywaslooking without their permission.

[That last part being spoken incredibly fast.]

So, um, Armand feels very ashamed about it but he doesn't know what to do. So, um, any suggestions for Armand would be...super helpful? And Armand would enjoy it too.

[And indeed, as the scroll is closed, Armand actually is enjoying strutting around like a preening peacock. What? He was a fabulous butterbee.]
