Spike opened the door, revealing everyone's favorite mailmare.
"Hello Spike!" Derpy cheered, abruptly pulling him into a hug.
"Whoa- Hello... Derpy." he squeaked out, his head turning blue from lack of oxygen.
"Derpy, you're... choking Spike." Twilight sheepishly stated, careful not to make the mare feel bad.
"Oh, Sorry!". And with that, she dropped the air-deprived dragon to the ground.
Spike quickly regained composture, dusting himself off.
"Anyway, I got a letter for you! Bye!" She dropped the letter on the ground, and flew away.
Spike scratched his head, as he watched her fly off crookedly. Derpy was a wierd mare.
"Well Spike? What does the letter say?" Asked Twilight.
"Let's see... It's a letter from Jet Set. Apparently he is planning a birthday for Diamond Tiara's 16th."
"Wait, why did he suddenly plan to throw her a party after the assault?" Asked Spike.
"I am guessing this was sent on the same day as the assault, but before it happened.". Twilight walked next to him, and swiped the card from his claws. "It's probably cancelled due to recent events, though."
Spike felt sorry for Diamond Tiara. They known eachother for a few years, and even dated for a while. Unfortunately, it ended in... sour terms. Still, he felt guilty that despite everything, she sent him an invite. It wouldn't hurt if he visited her in the hospital, would it?
(at the hospital)
"Excuse me, Rarity? We got some new patients to keep you company!"
Rarity could hear the sounds of hooves tapping against a white marble floor. She wished she could shout "Hello, I'm blind! I can't talk! I don't know who the new ponies are, and I can't tell!". Rarity hated being so helpless. She hated it! What's more they were barely helping her! It was Spike that did everything for her! Spike fed her, and bathed her, and was even working on a method of communication for her. Meanwhile the nurses might as well have been fired. And where did the doctor? The last time she saw a doctor here was when Rainbow Dash sprained her wing.
"Thank you, Doctor."
"No problem, Silver Spoon. You and Diamond Tiara will get beds right next to Rarity".
Oh Fuck.
