Magnolia would follow Twilight and Starlight into the private room. When they walked there her eyes would glance to their surroundings. In the past Magnolia had spent many hours here studying her spells in the quiet part of the library. Magnolia was seemingly suspicious with Starlight, but didn't say anything until after they entered into the private room. Magnolia would let Starlight speak first.
This mare is really suspicious...I don't think I like her that much. But sure, let's see what she has to say...
This made Magnolia shift about in her seat uncomfortably. Another suspicious, but more judgmental stare was shot in Starlight's direction. What she was saying there made no sense at all - and it went against what made ponies individuals. Something about the way Starlight spoke that this mare was nothing but trouble and that she was up to something nefarious.
"Well...that doesn't make any sense at all. I am pretty sure removing cutie marks from ponies is a crime and I don't think you should be allowed to do such a thing. I am also sure that without cutie marks they wouldn't have any magic. So, I don't think what you are saying there can lead anyone anywhere good..." Magnolia said, her eyes shifting side to side a bit - but it was an ardent sign that she would never see eye to eye with Starlight on this. Magnolia would straighten up at Starlight's attempt at humor, not finding it very appealing.
"Hi Magnolia, What is this important matter that you think needs to be discussed?" Twilight asked.
And then there's Magnolia here. She's been so mysterious this whole time. She claims to know so much about me, yet she reveals so little when I ask her about herself. However, she did say she was looking for me. What is she hiding?
Are these two ponies together? They definitely don't act like they're together. However, it is quite bizarre how they both happened to run into me at the same time. And if they are together, what are they trying to accomplish by asking me seemingly different questions and trying to act so different from each other? How can I trust these two ponies? Twilight thought as she sat at the table, glancing at the two ponies seated across from her.
Magnolia would cross her hooves as a sign that she was shoving away Starlight's statements in her mind, as she would address this. "Well, the reason I am here is because I was looking for you but didn't know where to find you - so I just thought you were in the library here. I found out recently that I am uh, related to you. I never knew who my parents were until I found out just recently when I searched through the records of who they were in the Canterlot Census Records, because I wanted to find out - and well, the papers don't lie..."
Magnolia would reach into her saddlebags and pull out a few records of the Orphanage, that Twilight Velvet and Night Light had left a very young filly there many years ago, before either her or Shining Armor were born. It was stated in the records that this filly was their daughter and there was an "unknown" reason why they decided to put her up for adoption instead of raising her.
