Proximus B (Metallic, habitable world, 3 months) 81% Twilight couldn’t exactly remember the last time she’d caught two members of the crew in the rec room at the same time before. But then—she almost never used the space. Despite the promised two hours personal time in every day’s rotation, Twilight found herself more often gravitating towards getting more of her work done. There were mysteries to solve, data to investigate, and ponies that needed her attention.But today was different. Today she…-

There had been no time for Jacob's talents during the prison raid: however many sickly ponies there might've been, there was no way to find them and help them when there were so many just trying to escape from a small space.Then they escaped. Jacob was one of the last to pass through the doorway, when the sound of shouting and pounding on metal was loudest and they were helping the weakest through. He stood right beside Sunset on the other side as the doors were breached, giving the finger with both hands…-

Mira did not invite the captain of the Diaspora to visit her in Meridian's home. Rather, she couldn't help the feeling that showing anything less than the wealth of a princess would fail to impress the crew. If that happened, she might lose her best chance at a ship brave enough to venture into the Astral Sea. But they couldn't judge her as the regent of Princess Luna if she had no palace to inspect.So she went to the dock, with only Pixie and Kallisto for company. With Kallisto's help, they both wore the…-

Tracy watched Rose closely, even more than his friends from Ely. She’d be the one he had to deal with tonight, regardless of how things went with them.“I was just… going to ask if you wanted breakfast,” she asked, tail flicking nervously behind her. But she hadn’t run for her life, screaming about how he was about to lead an invasion of Equestria. That was probably the closest to a victory he’d win tonight.“No thanks,” he said, the subtlest permission he could think of to let her leave.…-

They went to the excavation early in the evening, once the streets of Ponyville had emptied and ordinary people were all at home having dinner with their families. Lyra and Bonnie sat together in the back of an old van, while Reagan had the wheel.“First mission!” Tabitha exclaimed, from the seat just beside Bonnie. “Are you excited? I'd be excited. Maybe a little terrified. Jumping in with both feet on this one!”They all wore practical clothing now, sturdy and unremarkable. That meant something a…-

Felicity swam away from the entrance, leaving the fast-moving shadows behind on the other side of the glass. There was no way to look in that direction without feeling at least a little self-conscious—what was Escape Gear thinking, looking at her strange body through the glass? Would they ever speak again?Delta wasn't patient enough to wait, though, and swam along just beside her. One tentacle trailed against the metal at all times, though Felicity couldn't tell if she was investigating or afraid of…-

If Lane hadn't been so exhausted, she would've wanted to follow Elisa through the ruin, in case some danger lurked that a human might miss. But she didn't have the energy to stay up for such a search. They made it through the door together, and she was already looking for somewhere to lie down. Elisa's pockets would've been fine, if she had any. But without one... This far from civilization, there was no sign the old building had been ransacked, as she might've otherwise…-

Marie’s changeling senses were no mercy to her as the mythical creatures got their second magical-scroll delivery she had seen.She couldn’t read thoughts. Yet with her eyes closed, she could see thick patches of anger and fear, spreading out through the building and approaching rapidly. She clutched at her stomach, groaning with the nauseating feeling of so much anger in such a small place. If being near her friends brought color back to the world, this took it away again.“We should back up,” Marie…-

Lotus lay beneath a field of soft grass. They surrounded her in all directions, nearly up to her shoulders in places. She found the contact strangely soothing against her coat, gently cool after the desperate pressure of their flight from the mine and battle with Searing Gale. In all that time—from the moment of her frightening accident to the transformation that followed and her desperation to master her new powers—she never dared to hope this moment would actually come.But here she lay, surrounded by…-

"Avery?" The mew hovered there for a second, surrounded by narrow stone on either side. Though at their size it felt several meters away, it couldn't really be more than a meter. Quinn's transformation had robbed him of any sense of scale. "Part of me wonders why they never gave me a different name," she said. "Lost kitten whose irresponsible parents left her while they did their terraforming work. Has delusions of being human. But Avery didn't annoy them much. My…-
