Be there (obsolete description)

Pinkie Pie spotted Applejack from a distance and cheerily bounced over to her, "AJ! AJ! I've got to invite you to the baby dragon shower!"

Applejack looked at her quizzically for a time before replying, "Uhh, ain't Spike a little old for that?"

Pinkie giggled, "Not Spike, silly, there's a new baby dragon in town and we're going to welcome her with a big surprise party in the library tonight! It's gonna be totally fun!"

Applejack's eyes widened, "Hold on there, 'new' baby dragon?"

Pinkie Pie smiled, "Yep, I saw her walking with Rainbow Dash, Spike and Twilight."

Applejack pondered the idea of seeing the new dragon sooner, but work called and she simply accepted, "I'll meet y'all at the library later, I gotta see this baby dragon for myself."

"Okie dokie lokie!" Pinkie said before bouncing off once again, headed to give more invites the the other ponies.

Jade was unhappily eating a daisy sandwich. Rarity spoke with Fluttershy about Jade being at the cottage in the morning. She asked, "So she walked back to your cottage and spent the night with you?"

"Yes," said Fluttershy, "And she was so talkative all of a sudden."

"Did Twlight speak to you about where Jade might stay? I have been curious," asked Rarity.

Fluttershy was nervous about the question but she quickly replied, "No, she didn't. Was I supposed to talk to her? I'm sorry."

"Oh, no, no, no, don't be," said Rarity in a reassuring tone, "Twilight told me she was going to to library with Jade and Spike to think about this. She asked me if I could take care of Jade, but I couldn't possibly find the time to look after her. One cannot afford to do such things in my line of work. But I'm sure that Twilight will come up with a solution."

"Well, if she doesn't, I wouldn't mind... I mean... she could always stay with me," said Fluttershy, feeling like she was being pushy with the idea.

Rarity smiled at Fluttershy's sweetness but knew she was a busy pony, "You are such a darling, but you really don't have to, Fluttershy. I'm certain, that Twilight..."

Fluttershy interrupted, "But I want her to stay with me! Jade and I had so much fun together yesterday, I would be so sad if she left! That is... uhm... if that's what you want to, Jade."

As attention turned to Jade, she swallowed the bite of food she had in her mouth. Yesterday's events passed through Jade's mind and she reflected on every pony she met in a very short time. Fluttershy was smiling, when Jade looked at her she smiled back and said, "I'd like that."
