Ocellus quotes from My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic

Smolder

I take back everything I said about you! That was cool!

Ocellus

Thanks! Wait, what did you say about me?

Ocellus

Um, professors? I'm a little confused about teamwork now.

Rainbow Dash

That's because you need a different teacher.

Yona

Help! Yak not swim!

Ocellus

That's okay! Your friends can change into creatures that do!

Ocellus

They're all legendary magical artifacts!

Ocellus

Heh-heh. I've read ahead in Equestrian Cultures and Camaraderie: Volume Seven.

Silverstream

[excited squeal] Learning and fun?! Does it get any better than that?!

Gallus

You've been underwater a long time, haven't you?

Starlight Glimmer

No pony ever invited you to the school. And when you offered to help, I didn't listen. I was so worried about doing things Twilight's way, I didn't stop to think about being a good friend. I'd like to apologize for that. And offer you the job of vice headmare.

Spike

Huh?

Silverstream

Really?!

Gallus

What?!

Ocellus

Why?!

Yona

No!

Smolder

Him?!

Sandbar

Totally confused.

Ocellus

You must do something in the winter for fun.

Smolder

Well, we do have the Feast of Fire. Every dragon gets together and tells stories. The best one wins a pile of gemstones.

Gallus

Wait. Hold on. "Cousins"? What are those?

Ocellus

Your aunts and uncles' children. You know, part of your family.

Silverstream

At least you get to be with your family.

Gallus

No... because I don't have a family.

Sandbar

Hey, this reminds me of another story! "The Time I Almost Spilled Grape Juice on the White Couch"!

Smolder

Does it have a depressing ending?

Ocellus

I'm not sure pony stories work that way.

Yona

Gallus want Yona braid feathers?

Gallus

Uhhh... pass.

Silverstream

[singing proudly] Hearth's Warming Eve is here once again!

Smolder

It isn't just another friendship school. It's a university!

Ocellus

It says they teach the same lessons of competing schools in half the time. That's twice the learning!

Gallus

And it's in Las Pegasus? If Professor Rarity lets us skip her sewing class – road trip!

Ocellus

We were studying friendship's effect on history, but then...

Gallus

Since friendship just isn't in our nature, what's the point?

Ocellus

It's okay, Yona! You like flying, remember?

Yona

Flying, not falling!

Gallus

You get the feeling Cozy's trying too hard to make us like her?

Ocellus

Or maybe she just wants to help us keep our minds off of how scary it is that magic's disappearing.

Smolder

I don't trust her. What's she up to behind those big eyes and bouncy curls?

Ocellus

If Sandbar's turned his back on us, every other pony probably has, too.

Yona

Sandbar not turn his back! Sandbar is our friend!

Smolder

Uh, did you miss the part where he said he didn't want anything to do with us?

Silverstream

Maybe he just said that so one of us could be free to snoop around and figure out what's going on.

Sandbar

I don't know. That sounds too clever for a pony to come up with.
