[It was a long and hard battle, yet slowly but surely the Chaotic menace was beaten back.

What was left by the time "late at night" gets blurry with "early in the morning" were only a few dozen individuals, now huddled together downtown, near the large trees that'd given the city its name. They were faced off against several fighters, two opposing forces that weren't, at the moment, actually combatting.

They were both waiting to see who would make the first move.]

[He nodded in agreement with that. Then looked back down at her.]

I won't...

[Looking back at the Ambrosia Nectar.]

Perhaps while I'm here I can join you inside, I'll shrink down to human size for you and stay for a while till we know everything is alright.

I'll go back out if there's any more trouble.

[strengthinkindness]

[She nods a little.] Mm...I'd like that...

[hisheadintheclouds]

[Arthur nodded as he let go of her hand. Holding his pendant as he slightly glowed and the shrunk down back a regular 6 foot human height. He came over and gave her a warm hug. Before looking down and holding her hand.]

Let's head inside, I hope Dominic has some pretzels left.

[strengthinkindness]

[She returned the hug while she could, and with a smile she nodded, gently squeezing his hand.]

Mm...okay...

[As the two of them walked in, Dominic eyes widen. He looked a mess, his hair was untamed from rushing about as he came over.]

A-Arthur, Fluttershy, thank goodness you're both safe.

[Giving them both a hug, before taking them by the hand to one of the tables.]

I was so worried when I saw you both out there fighting.

I-I could only imagine what coulda hap-

[hisheadintheclouds]

[Once Arthur gave a gentle hug bad to the poor frazzled Satyr. As he gave a little chuckle as he guided them to a vacant table.]

We're fine Dominic, really.

[strengthinkindness]

[Fluttershy smiles a bit as she nods.]

Mm...we are...

What about you? Have you been okay?

[sweartoit]

[Dominic gave a relieved sigh as he brushed his fingers through his hair trying to straighten up. Adjust his tie and vest a bit.]

I've been better.

But I ought not to complain, I've been inside all day after all. Just the tending and helping to those who need shelter.

[Gives a small smile.]

Shall I get you two any drinks or something to eat?

2/2

[hisheadintheclouds]

It's alright, you just been stressed.

[Gives a nod with a smile in return.]

I'll just have some water and some pretzels if you got some.

[strengthinkindness]

Mm...some water would be wonderful...

Is there anyone here who's injured...?

1/2

[sweartoit]

[Dominic wrote it down a he placed the notepad back in his pocket.]

There's quite a few... Not too many thankfully.

Lucky that most of the creatures were outside.

2/2

[hisheadintheclouds]

[Arthur looked around in observation at some of the folks here.]

Would you like us to help out?

I can heal a little.

[strengthinkindness]

Mm...and I still have a few medical supplies left...

1/2

[sweartoit]

Ah...

You know that'd be wonderful, but I insist you two rest up first before you do.

You both need a break from this i'm sure.

[Holding up his hand before Arthur could speak.]

Ah ah, I will have no protests, I've seen the news.

Take a break.

[Rushing off to the kitchen.]

I'll be back with your drinks and pretzels.

2/2

[hisheadintheclouds]

[Once Arthur was silenced from any protests. He gave a sigh as Dominic rushed off.]

Guess we're stuck to rest here for a bit.

[strengthinkindness]

O-Oh...y-yes, I guess so...

[hisheadintheclouds]

Well, guess we'll relax till he comes back.

[He sat back.]

You know... It's a good thing that Halloween party is coming up at my house, everyone is gonna need it at this.

[strengthinkindness]

[She nods.] Mm...it'll be nice to have something fun to look forward to...

[hisheadintheclouds]

[Arthur placed his hands on his table as he bit his lip.]

Kinda nervous though... I've never hosted a party before.

[He placed his hands in his cheek.]

I'm trying to remember stuff people do at Halloween Parties, does anyone bob for apples anymore?

[strengthinkindness]

I'm sure you'll do fine...

Mm, sometimes...I think it'd be fun...

[hisheadintheclouds]

[Arthur nodded in thanks be he smiled as he rubbed his chin.]

I'll have to be careful though.

I've got a feeling some of our friends might be a little eager to try the giant size portions. Particularly the sweets.

[It's Pinkie. He's talking about Pinkie.]

[strengthinkindness]

[She giggles a little.] Hopefully one serving will be enough for them...

1/3

[hisheadintheclouds]

I'll have to be sure to hide the family's wine collection too, those huge barrels.

That'd be a disaster.

2/3

[sweartoit]

[Dominic comes back with the drinks and pretzels for them.]

... Did you say wine?

As in... Giant specifically made wine?

... Arthur would it be too much to ask-

3/3

[hisheadintheclouds]

[Gives an unamused look.]

No.

[Dominic pouts at him.]

Oh don't give me that, it's way too much for smaller folk.
