Ask Gallus and Silverstream [CLOSED]

[SparklingSquirrels 21,341]

Is Terramar single? 

[Woohoo 34,065]

Alright, you packed everything you need, Silver?

Yep, how about you, Gallus? 

Yeah, even though I only have one set of clothing, which is the suit Rarity made.

Ooh, may I see it?

You'll see it at dinner tomorrow night.

*frowns a bit, but smiles again* I think we have time for one last question before the train arrives.

Yes he is. Frankly, I think it's time for my baby brother to find a special somegriff. Just look at him! Ain't he a cutie?

Silver, you really shouldn't call Terramar your 'baby brother.' I mean, he's the same age as me.

So, I'm his big sister so he's still a baby to me. 

*sighs* Look, our train is coming!

Well, every creature, we're on our way to Las Pegasus. See ya!

See ya, every creature. We'll be back on Wednesday.

"How was your trip to Las Pegasus?" 

[Woohoo 34,065]

*sighs* It feels good to be back. We sure did have fun in Las Pegasus. No question about it.

Speaking of questions, I bet we got a whole bunch while we were gone. 

Nope, just one.

Just ONE?! *sighs* It's better than nothing.

"How was your trip to Las Pegasus?" 

*takes a deep breath* You have no idea. Las Pegasus was absolutely... I can't even think of a word to describe our trip.

Me neither. The fun that you, me, and my family had, it's indescribable. Also, we finally showed Gallus his surprise. I think you should tell it. 

OK. Silver's family took me to see Coloratura live in concert. You wouldn't believe how loud I screeched with you when I found out. 

My ears are still ringing from it. Long story short, Rara, as Professor AJ calls her, put on a phenomenal show. By the way Gallus, should we talk about gambling thing?

Probably. So even though Silver and I are under 21, we were allowed into the casino. Why? Because the signs say "No Pony Under 21 Allowed." Seriously? Do these casino owners even know other creatures exist? Then again, I don't think any 'griff has ever ventured that far west before. Anyways, Silver and I tried a slot machine, but kept losing. Then, with our last bit, we won the 10,000 bit jackpot! We couldn't believe it!

I know! If you're wondering what we did with all that money... should I tell the rest, Gallus?

Go ahead, Silver.

After we won the jackpot, by chance, we ran into Rara in the lobby. We talked quite a bit about her concert, what's been going on in Friendship School, and so on and so forth. Then Rara told us about the charity she started for cancer research. That's when we got the idea: we should donate the jackpot money to her charity.

You should've seen Rara's face when we told her that. She lit up like a Hearth's Warming tree and hugged us both pretty tight. Needless to say, I think Professor Rarity taught us well on generosity. Any creature with that much money would've just kept it all for themselves or blown it on something stupid. Not us. 

Well said, Gallus. Wow, I haven't felt this articulate in a while.

I know. What was your favorite moment from the trip?

Either donating the jackpot money or sharing a bed with you again. 

Same here. Oh wow, what a pretty sunset. Let's go watch it.

Right behind ya! *flies off with Gallus*

[Sparklefan1234 170,300]

"How long do griffons usually live?" 

[Woohoo 34,065]

*groans* I'm soooo bored!

Tell me about it. It's raining outside and none of our friends are here. I really wish we stayed an extra day in Las Pegasus.

Me too, but it would've been too expensive. Oh look, a question for you, Gallus. Woohoo!

Yeah, woohoo...

"How long do griffons usually live?" 

About a month ago, Headmare Twilight and I browsed through several books on griffons trying to figure out why I'm blue. I remember reading that griffons typically live up to be 100 years old, sometimes over 150. However, pretty much all those books are outdated as they only go up to the coronation of King Guto. 

What happened after that?

The Idol of Boreas was lost and Griffonstone fell into ruin. That's the short answer. As for the long answer... I'll save for it for another time as it's another heart wrencher.

Darn, I had my tissue box ready to go. While we're still on the subject of griffon ages, how old is Grandpa Gruff?

Last time I checked, he's 118 years old and the only griffon old enough to have seen Griffonstone's downfall. *sighs* You know, Silver, I really could use some snuggling.

*squeals with joy* Don't have to ask me twice! 

 

*sighs* I love you, Silver.

I love you too, Gallus.

[Sparklefan1234 170,300]

"What do you do to make yourself feel better after a bad day?" 

[Woohoo 34,065]

Good morning, Silver.

Morning, Gallus. Wow... it's been five days since we last got a question. Are we not popular anymore? *frowns* 

*sighs* I know. Oh look, Silver, we finally got a question.

*instantly smiles* Yaaaaay! What does it say?!

If there's one thing that makes us feel better after a bad day, it's snuggling.

*tackles Gallus and snuggles him tightly*

*choking* Ack... Silver... too tight...

*releases Gallus* Sorry. I guess I never learn. 

*sighs* There's a lot of other things that make us feel good, but snuggling is definitely number one. Now we have to get to class right away. See you all later. *flies off with Silver*

Well, it's difficult to come up with questions for griffons since, I've never actually seen one before. 

 

*Gasp* What if you're both imaginary!? 

[Woohoo 34,065]

Whew, what a day. 

I know. At least we're halfway through the week. *gasps* Another question!

Two in one day? That hasn't happened in a while.

Are... are you implying that we're not real? Silver, are we real?

Only way to find out. *pinches Gallus*

Ouch! Ok, that proves I'm real. Now it's your turn. *pinches Silver*

Ow! I think this answers the question. Sheesh, your claws are sharp. 

So are yours. Maybe we should have a spa day this weekend.

Good idea. *yawns* I'm tired. Night, Gallus.

Night, Silver. Oh by the way, and this is for every creature, you don't have to come up with overly creative questions. Sometimes, we like the most basic of questions.

You're the most basic of questions.

BWAH! Maud! Where did you come from?! *sigh* I'm not even gonna bother asking.

"How are you?" 

How am I? Well, over a year ago, I was just a lowly and starving orphan trying to survive in some alleyway in Griffonstone that no griffon wanted anything to do with. Now, I'm a student at Twilight's Friendship School, I have wonderful friends whom I care about and we saved Equestria from Crazy Glue together, and best of all, I have an amazing girlfriend who truly loves me for me. So how am I? I feel pretty good. How are you, Silver?

I feel the same... Well, minus the whole starving orphan thing. I'm amazed how much we've changed since last year.

I know. *yawns* I'm tired. Night, Silver. *kisses her*

Night, Gallus.

Which one of you is a better flyer?

[Woohoo 34,065]

*nudging Gallus* Wake up, Gallus.

*yawns* Wow, you're up early, Silver.

I know. We have a question for both of us. Also, they're serving pancakes today.

*happy birb noises*

Silver, how would you rate yourself as a flyer?

You know, despite living underwater for most of my life, I'm actually a really good flyer. Maybe, in a way, swimming is like flying underwater. How about you, Gallus?

Eh, not very good. 

Why do you think that?

I was a very late starter when it came to flying. While most fledglings start flying when they're three years old, I didn't start flying until I was seven. Since I had no parents to teach me and every other griffon disliked me, I had to teach myself how to fly. 

*gasps* I uh... I don't know what to say.

You don't have to say anything. It was really awkward and painful. *sighs* Silver's the better flyer. Question answered. PANCAKES! *flies off*

Wait for me! *flies after Gallus*

[Sparklefan1234 170,300]

Are griffons good at running? 

[Woohoo 34,065]

Alright, weekend time!

Ugh, finally! I thought this week would never end. By the way, did you book our spa appointment yet?

Yep. Tomorrow at 11:00. Does that time work for you?

Perfect. We'll get there before it gets too crowded. *yawns* Today was so tiring.

Wait, do you have time for one more question?

*sigh* Fine. 

2 hours ago, Sparklefan1234 said:

Yes. Now, good night. *flies off*

Wow, he really is grumpy. He didn't even kiss me good night. 

*flies back and kisses Silver, then flies off again*

Much better. Maybe our spa day tomorrow will make him feel better. Good night, every creature. *flies off*

[Sparklefan1234 170,300]

Why is Blue Beak always *so* grouchy? 

[Woohoo 34,065]

*yawns* Good morning, every creature. It's just me right now because I'm letting Gallus sleep in this morning. He was pretty grouchy yesterday. Ooh, a question!

"Blue Beak?" Oh, are you talking about my dad, Sky Beak? He's never grouchy... *laughs* I'm just messing with you. I know you're asking about Gallus. He's not always grouchy. OK, during the first year of school, he was like that, but he's gotten much better since then. However, this past week has been tiring all of us so no wonder he was so grouchy. Good thing we're going to the spa today. I really hope it un-grouch-ifies him. I probably should go check on him See ya! *flies off*

[Silly Druid 6,947]

Silverstream, can you do the "superhero landing" IRL?

[Woohoo 34,065]

So, Gallus, how do you feel now?

To be honest, Silver, I feel like a brand new griffon. It's like all my grouchiness has been washed away. We should definitely do the spa more often.

Definitely! I wonder if we got anymore questions today.

Silverstream, can you do the "superhero landing" IRL?

"Superhero landing?" I don't really know what that is.

Oh, remember when we had the same dream together?

Which one? The one we Pinkie Promised we would never speak of again?

No. The one involving all our friends and the Tree of Harmony. There's a part of the dream where you joined the Wonderbolts. I think the questioner was referring to this.

So that's a "superhero landing." Wow, that looks really tough. I don't think I can do that in real life... at least without breaking my talon.  *sighs* Wow, the spa really made our fur all fluffy.

I know. Should we go snuggle now?

Abso-total-lutely!

Silverstream and Gallus,

Do you have a favorite part about the spa?

[Sparklefan1234 170,300]

"How much do you two *love* homework?" (Asking for a friend. )

[Woohoo 34,065]

Woohoo! More questions!

Really? How dare they interrupt snuggle time!

Believe it or not, my favorite part was the hot tub. Yeah, it's kinda odd coming from a creature who's half cat. Something about warm bubbly water that relaxes me. How about your favorite part, Silver?

The steam room. It felt like all my stress and doubts have evaporated away. What was your least favorite part of the spa, Gallus?

Probably the massaging. I'm still not used to be touched by strangers, but at least my skin feels great. Do you have a least favorite part?

Nope. Next question.

Oh yeah, we totally love homework.

Definitely. We learn soooo much from homework.

I love homework more than stairs... Ha, gotcha! 

We both hate homework... and it shouldn't even be called homework because we don't work on it at home. It should be called "dormwork."

*giggles* Good one. What should we do now?

Uh, resume our rudely interrupted snuggle time?

You read my mind!

That's easy... plumbing. One time, I tried to fix the kitchen sink at Sugarcube Corner and... well you get the idea.

Were the Cakes mad at all?

Not really, just disappointed that I made a bigger mess in their kitchen.

Alright, question answered. Night, Silver *kisses her*

Night, Gallus.
