(Solar Flare and Blazing Ember were at one of their “one on one” after school sessions in the Canterlot Library. Blazing Ember places a book in front of Solar Flare and opens it to a bookmarked page)

Solar: What is this?

Blaze: This is the spell you were trying to work on the other day. The one your mom got from Princess Twilight?

Solar: Oh, well why are you showing it to me then? You already saw how well it went last time! *laughing a bit, pushes the book away*

Blaze: Well, yes, I did; But trust me, just take a look. I promise this is the same spell, but I have a feeling you’ll be able to understand it this time.

Solar: *raises a skeptical eyebrow but rolls her eyes and begins to read*

(Blaze watches as Solar’s skeptisism slowly turns into intrigue, and the corners of her mouth begin to smile)

Solar: This.. This seems so much easier..! Why didn’t Twilight just give me this version?

Blaze: Well, it IS Princess Twilight we’re talking about. *laughs*

Solar: *laughing back* Yeah, I guess you’re right.. *goes back to the spell* Do you think this would be a nice addition to my final?

Blaze: It wouldn’t hurt to try.. I’m sure you would turn some Professor’s heads with it, that’s for sure. If reproduced correctly that is. Don’t want to have ponies turning into mutants now, would we?

Solar: … Or would we? *teasing*

Blaze: Solar, I would rather NOT have to clean up after your mess again, and that one would probably require a Princess level magic to set right.. So if you’re going to try to learn this transformation spell, you need to make sure you get it right before practicing on other ponies… Or well, on any living thing for that matter.

Solar: What about plants?

Blaze: How about non-living organisms of any kind first? *pushes a pencil towards her*

Solar: Ugh, fine. *smiles though* You’re no fun, Blazey.

Blaze: Oh sure I am; Just with other ponies. Why waste all the fun on you? You’re just an apprentice. *mocking tone*

Solar: I’ll show you apprentice! *zaps the pencil as it glows with a bright light - Solar’s eyes widen in excitment as she watches the pencil begin to change shape, hoping she did it, until suddenly the pencil seems to deflate like it was a balloon and falls to the table with a sad flop*

Blaze: *picks up the floppy deflated pencil and hold back from an outburst laughter* Um…. That was new. *snickering*

Solar: … First try doesn’t count. I wasn’t ready.

Blaze: Well at least that’s true.. haha! *lets out his laughing and falls to the floor still holding the floppy pencil* This is too good!

Solar: Yeah, yeah… get your laughs out now. When I finally get this spell down, you are my first victim! Prepare to become a guinea pig, and I mean that literally! *bonks him on the head while he’s still laughing*
