- >To say that the two of you (or, at least Dash) get some odd looks as you make your way back through Ponyville would be an understatement.
- >Though it’s still relatively early in the morning there are enough ponies around that Dash can’t go more than a handful of steps without being stopped to ask if she’s alright.
- >Damn ponies and their good natured helpfulness.
- >Fortunately though you make it back to Twilight’s castle without incident.
- >Unfortunately, the extent of her ‘crazy healing magic’ is using telekinesis to apply the better part of her medicine cabinet to Dash’s wounds.
- >”And this stallion was able to do what WHAT with his stand?”
- >Dash sighs as Twilight seems to produce a quill and notepad from nowhere to take notes.
- >”I- we figured out he was able to reset the location of everything in a set radius.”
- >”Fascinating, the diversity in stand powers truly immense.”
- “It didn’t stop us from kicking his ass.”
- >Dash relays your comment, and Twilight just rolls her eyes.
- >”It’s just odd that you would meet him today, of the day after you gained your own stand.”
- >”It must be like Princess Luna said; Stand users attract other Stand users.”
- >Twilight purses her lips, clearly unhappy with such a simple answer.
- >”There must be more to it than that though…”
- >Dash offers her a shrug and a thought.
- >”Hey, we deal with big complicated problems all the time. Why can’t it be a simple answer for a change?”
- >Dash slides herself out of her seat, and in her haste knocks the open box of medical supplies off the table.
- >Acting almost unconsciously, you snap your hand out and grab the box in mid-air, before it has the chance to spill all over the floor.
- >”Huh. Nice catch Anon.”
- >You go place the box back on the table and notice Twilight staring at the (what would appear to her) floating medical kit before muttering a single word.
- >”Gravity…”
- >”What was that Twi.”
- >Dash’s voice seems to snap Twilight out of her state and the mare quickly turns around and heads for the door, notepad in tow.
- >”One moment, I need to write this down!”
- >You and Dash share a confused look, and follow Twilight, curious as to what she’s up to.
- >The two of you are lead to an adjacent room strewn with notes and papers and dominated by a large chalkboard that Twilight is frantically writing on.
- >You take a look at a small, nondescript journal on the nearby desk and see that it seems to describe a number of different stands, as well as a number of theories the writer seems to have about them.
- >”Twilight what are you doing?”
- >”Writing down my theory, what does it look like?”
- “A bunch of squiggles.”
- >Dash stifles a laugh, then goes ramrod stiff when Twilight spins around to face her.
- >”Rainbow Dash, you understand the theory of gravity, yes?”
- >Dahs shoots Twilight a look as if she just asked her what her name was.
- >”I’m a pegasus, of course I do.”
- >Rainbow clears her throat and casts her mind back to her school days as she puts on her best teacher voice;
- >”What goes up must come down.”
- >Twilight sighs, and with a flick of her horn conjures a magical grid into existence, with a large sphere suspended above it.
- >Before your eyes the sphere lowers itself into the grid, dragging it down around it and creating a divot in the middle.
- >”To put it in Laymares terms; The bigger the object the stronger its gravity. In our case a planet;”
- >Twilight stomps her hoof on the ground.
- >“-contains exerts more gravity than a pony. That’s why we stand on its surface.”
- >”So what does this have to do with stands? Are you saying that there’s one that can control gravity?!”
- >”It’s a possibility, but that’s not what I’m saying. I’m more interested in relating this to stand USERS.”
- >Twilight conjure another sphere in place above the grid.
- >”While as a rule smaller, or rather less dense objects are drawn towards denser ones when they’re caught in their field of gravity-”
- >Twilight drops the second sphere onto the grid, close to the first.
- >”Two objects of equal density will be mutually drawn towards each other.”
- >True to her word both spheres move; meeting in the middle.
- >”My theory, and it is just a theory, is that stands and stand users have their own, unique field of ‘gravity’ that like Princess Luna said; draws stand users towards each other.”
- >”That...actually sounds like it could be right.”
- >”Now I know the theory has several holes in it but- Wait what?”
- >”It’s a good theory Twi-”
- “I don’t see how it helps us but…”
- >”-, really, it is.”
- >Twilight goes to respond, only to stop and gasp as a light appears from behind Dash.
- >Or more accurately, from Dash’s behind.
- “Uh Rainbow, is your cutie mark supposed to be glowing?”
