"What's so wrong with liking someone?! What's so bad about making friends?!"

"We can never love, Shatter Glass. It is the rule! We feed off of love, not fall for it."

"But why can't we love?! What do you have against the ponies of the world?!"

"They are weak, pathetic creatures! They may think that love is the strongest bond, but fear breaks it too easily! You may think you are in love, but you are not! I will not, repeat, WILL. NOT! Let you be pulled into a trap such as love!"

"Love isn't a trap!"

"Just watch the colt get threatened and turn away from you once one of them discovers what you really are! You could be KILLED, Glass!"

"Sky Drop wouldn't do anything like that! None of my friends would!"

"How can you be so certain when you yourself watched as a colt killed one of our own after we trusted him to keep his promise? No! I won't let you fall to the same fate!"

"I won't get hurt! I swear, my friends aren't like anyone you've known! They wouldn't be afraid if they found out! They wouldn't turn against me!"

"We have gotten off track! Your time in Ponyville has passed. It is time to return to the nest."

"No! I won't go with you!"

"You must! You have a destiny, Glass!"

"I won't go! Everyone here likes me! Everyone has accepted me!"

"They've accepted you as your pony disguise! Would they accept you for who you really are?"

"Th-they would!"

"Prove it then!"

"Wh-what? But I thought you didn't want me to get hurt!"

"So you would be betrayed!"

"No! It's just... I-I couldn't..."

"Couldn't tell them because they would turn against you! Glass, you know it is not safe here!"

"I-I... I can't leave Sky! He would be heartbroken if I left!"

"Then stay, and get your own heart broken."

"No, wait! What are you doing?! Where are you going?!"

"I will not have you stay behind in Ponyville and neglect your destiny. This must be done!"
