Why is there no map for this place... You know, I think that's a project that really needs to be undertaken. Maps of all the various caaaaaaaaa- oof!

[Stepping onto one of the ice-covered floors that covers the ice path, Twilight is interrupted by suddenly slipping and sliding all the way over to the wall on the opposite side, which she crashes headlong into.]

Urgh... that was unpleasant. Alright, just need to pay a bit more attention, let's tryyyyyyy- argh!

[Another step has her legs slipping straight out from under her, and she slides across to another corner of the room on her knees, face first. After a highly unpleasant sounding crash, she lets out a low groan and slides down the wall until she's face down, making highly unhappy noises.]

I. Hate. This. Cave.

[As if to add insult to injury, the Pokemon who's been holding the gear this whole time proceeds to step out onto the ice and easily slide its way over to its hapless trainer, holding out the gear.]

What? Oh just... just shut it off, Champ. I don't even want to worry about that map idea until I'm out of this place, now. Oh, my head...

Ha, sweet~!

They'd never know what happened when we come knocking down their door with a Legendary Pokemon having our flanks! And it wouldn't even matter which one it is; it could be Articuno, Moltres, Zapdos, Lugia, Ho-oh or even Entei, Suicune and Raikou!

(Ohhh...! She knows the word, but 'hubris cometh before a fall' makes no sense in that context.)

See, now I'm imagining all of them charging in alongside us to bring the Rockets down. I think that'd be overkill, but in this situation I can't really argue against it.

Hehehe, that'd be awesome to see! Definitely something cool to tell the Princess about, how we made friends with Legendary Pokemon and all.

Yeah... probably just a pipe dream though. I can't really see them all joining up with us.

Heh, maybe...still doesn't mean it'd be really cool if we could join up with one of them!

We'd have to prove ourselves to them first, somehow. And I don't even know how we'd do that.

Hmm...proving ourselves to Legendary Pokemon shouldn't be too hard! We've faced much worse than weird tests.

(Rainbow faced the test of 'knocking books she hasn't tried to read first.' And she's still being tested, in a way.)

That's true. But we'd still have to know what exactly would impress them in order to pull it off. I mean, I've heard Ho-Oh is attracted to "those of pure heart" but what does that even mean?

Hmm...'those of pure heart?' Sounds like one of those riddles we'd answer while facing Discord.

Seems more like a Crystal Empire thing to me.

[Crystal Heart and all.]

But yeah, you get the idea.

Hey, yeah! And I'd get to show off my jousting skills again.

(Of course, since Fluttershy went back home just about a year or so ago she'll need a sparring partner.)

Care to face me in a one-on-one match?

What, on the backs of Rapidashes or something? That seems dangerous.

Well, if we used real swords it'd be pretty dangerous! I'm sure you could figure out something else we could use instead.

You use lances in jousting, not swords. You should know that. Either way it still sounds dangerous even if they're blunted, we'd need proper armor to absorb the blows, not to mention the impact of the fall for whoever got knocked off.

Swords, lances...I do know that, but who says we'll run into any while we're here? And aren't being used by our Pokemon? (Referring to her Escavalier.)

Well, lances are more likely than swords, I mean they're basically just long shafts with a point at the end. Swords are more obviously a weapon... though I wouldn't put it past Tenten to be able to find one or two.

Hehe, sweet! I'll totally ask if she can find us a couple lances the next time we meet up with her.

(Or she could just get ahold of her on the 'Gear and ask.)

If you're so determined, I don't see why not.

[She couldn't care less herself, and she'll probably find someone else to be Rainbow's jousting partner if it comes to that.]

C'mon Twi, it's not like we do things together besides train with our 'Mons, battle for Gym badges and travel from one city to the next.

That's not true! I mean, okay we didn't do much in Mahogany, but there wasn't really much to do there. The place made Ponyville look like a metropolis.

Ha, yeah; it does make Ponyville look like a metropolis. But, we could hang out and do awesome stuff when we reach Blackthorn?

Well despite being called a city, Blackthorn isn't all too big either. Mostly I just want to go there to get the Rising Badge. But we can go to the hot springs and check out the Dragon's Den. And once we're done we'll head back to Goldenrod, and to Saffron from there. There's a lot of things to do in those cities, as you well know.

Hehe, I thought I was the pony who just went to cities to get Badges! But the hot springs and the Den sound like cool places to hit before we head back to Goldenrod! And you're right, but we should avoid going to the Gym in Goldenrod.

Of course we aren't going back in there. Do I look insane?

Not this time. Then again, we don't have to get the Rising Badge by Tuesday.

(Be grateful she didn't bring up the 'Want it, need it~' spell Twilight.)
