"That doesn't really sound like Shady," Moon said quietly. "I've never known her to be irresponsible."
"Sure thing." She gave Saber a mug of cider, and brought Etheran her ale. "Hey Moon, have you seen Night today?"
"I haven't, which is weird. That weird shopping mall that she likes has some kind of time magic, so they should have got back as soon as they left."
"She never me where it was," Moon Shine said. "All she said is that it's in some kinda magic world where time don't work." She thought for a minute, trying to remember what else Nightshade had told her. "Try asking some of those Discord cult ponies. They're the ones she usually goes with."
(Sh*t, meet fan.) "Hmm? Oh, right, most ponies don't know about that." She laughed. "Turns out, Discord has his own little cult! It's been around since before he even came back." She took a drink, and continued. "Little Shady's been with 'em for a few years. They made her a high priestess last winter."
"that's cool" Zeran said. "I think I'll visit this cult" Etheran murmured. "they sound interesting.... perhaps I'll bring Aborel with me....."
"WHAT?!" He slammed his hoof down, cracking the floor. Asmo jumped. "Well, *squee!*." Dusty's ears flopped down. "Az." Maya slowly walked out from behind the counter. "Calm down, big guy..."
Moon looked at the large stallion worriedly. "I think I may have just said something I shouldn't have." She tossed her bits on the bar and headed for the door, nearly bumping into Silver, who was walking in, as she fled. Silver shrugged, and walked towards the bar. "Good morning, everypony."
"Az..." Maya approached the large stallion. "You've gotta calm down, OK? Work on your anger, just like we taught you. They're not all..." Azrael flared his nostrils. "I don't *squee!*ing trust them. If she even looks at her the wrong way, I'll break her legs."
