Face now baring a noticeable red shade from a blush over his
continued behavior, Marked wondered for a brief moment if simply
running off with a short and simple 'I gotta go' would spare
both him and the mares any more bother, his pouch being left
behind as his payment for the fritter that he would probably
also drop in his fleeing of the scene. However, after hearing
Rainbow Dash's urging for him to calm down, and seeing her smile
after daring to let his eyes flick up from their staring at the
ground, the stallion tried to relax as per her request, him
taking several slow and deep breathes as he took back the pouch
being offered back to him, hoof still a little trembly though
despite his efforts. "Y-yeah," he managed, withdrawing bits from
his pouch and hoofing over one too many as he paid for his
fritter with five instead of four, his incorrect count of bits
being just another slip up brought on by his nerves,
"S-sorry..."
A glance back behind him showed that he was, on top of probably
looking like a silly stallion who couldn't handle being around
famous ponies, starting to possibly hold up the forming line of
hungry customers. Stepping off to the side of the cart with his
head lowered slightly, he gave Applejack a brief apologetic look
before firmly setting his gaze back on the ground beneath him
that he'd begun to shyly scuff with his hoof. Swallowing
nervously, he tried to answer Dash without making a bigger fool
of himself, "I'm writing... or, well, trying to write my new
b-book. So, I guess right now you could say I'm j-just writing
notes and scribbles... What few have been coming to mind at
least..."

Applejack only shook her head at Rainbow's insistence on using
incorrect grammar. Appppplejack had tried, at least. She wasn't
going to keep trying to beat her head against a brick wall. So
instead, she looked back to the nervous pony, staring at him for
a moment as she waited for him, almost as if expecting him to
get his head back on his shoulders. She couldn't wait forever
for him either, so when Rainbow finally took her order,
Applejack immediately set about grabbing a couple fritters and
wrapping them in some napkins before handing them over to
Rainbow.
"Eight bits," she told the mare clearly, before falling silent
as she and Mark continued to converse a little bit, urging
Rainbow to the side a bit so the next pony now standing in line
could take their order as well, not even bothering to glance
Rainbow's way when Applejack's name was added on in some kind of
afterthought regarding the stallion's nervousness. Then, when
Marked finally got around to giving her his bits, she took the
four she needed and pushed the extra one back to him, all while
pulling another treat out from a basket to give to the next pony
in line at the same time.
The same hoof that had pushed Marked's bit back to him was then
held out to Rainbow in obvious expectation, while simultaneously
taking some bits from the pony exchange for the treat that had
been given and waving the next pony forward. This was all
expertly done in one fluid motion, almost making it look like
some kind of show. "Well, if ya don't have much ta say 'bout the
book yer writin', how 'bout what you've already written? An'
Ah'm sure if ya ask nicely, RD's got some perty.... uh,
'interestin'' stories she could tell. Maybe one o' them could
give you some ideas. Unless that's too much ta ask of ya, RD?"
Applejack smirked, knowing what that challenge would do for the
mare.

Rainbow Dash watched the nervous stallion fumble around for a
little bit longer, eventually turning her attention to Applejack
holding out her hoof for... something... The Pegasus blinked in
realization, frowning somewhat at the implication as she hovered
over to the side ever so slightly, just barely out of the way.
"What? No tab this morning? Besides, didn't I win that last
little bet we had?" Dash smiled wryly, but she knew all too well
that their last mano-a-mano resulted in a tie, much like
anything else that involved the two mares. Regardless, the
Pegasus decided to not press her luck while AJ was in 'business
mode' and fished out eight golden bits with a mild huff of
annoyance. Rainbow's mild disposition didn't last very long,
however, as she immediately tore into one of the apple-fritters
and devoured it whole like it was the last one to ever be made.
After a few moments of relishing in her temporary sweet-laden
world, Dash finally turned her attention back to the stallion...
She gazed over him with bright, cerise eyes, still unconvinced
that she hadn't seen him before. "A new book, you say?" Dash
remained barely aloft, seemingly more comfortable just a few
inches off the ground as she took a bite or two out of her
second apple-treat. "That means *chomp* you've written *nom*
books before *crunch* haven't you, Uh... uh....." The Pegasus
blinked, unsure of what to even call the stallion. "What's your
name, pal? Not to brag or anything, but I've read quite a few
books. Maybe I've read one of them." She shrugged to herself and
finished her second apple-fritter, almost pouting as she
realized that she didn't have a third one.
When Applejack spoke up about Dash's 'stories', her somewhat
'calm and complacent' demeanor spontaneously sprung to life.
"Too much to ask!? Did you forget who you were talking to,
sugarcube?" Dash glanced back to AJ as she poked the mare with a
quick jest of her own. "And I believe the word you're looking
for is awesome, radical, or just simply cool. Or any combination
of the three. Like awesomelyradicool or something like that..."
Rainbow Dash paused and rolled that word in her mouth again...
That sounded so much cooler in her head. She turned back to the
stallion, beaming boyishly at the thought of being some sort of
fount of inspiration for a writer. "Weeeeelllllllllll, I suppose
I could spare a minute or two to discuss one of my many
exploits... Like that one time I fought a dragon, or when I
saved the Wonderbolts, or freed Cloudsdale from Discord's
grasp--" Dash stopped short, somewhat frowning at herself...
"Well... I had help. But still! It's not every day you find
somepony that's gone hoof to claw with a dragon."

---------------------------------------------------------
Still having trouble even looking up, Marked needed a few
seconds to realize that one of his bits had been refused by the
orange mare running the cart, him at first being confused as to
why but managing to piece together his small slip up after
allowing his brain to actually breath for a moment. Forcing his
hoof to remain as still and level as he could, he used the brief
verbal exchange between the two mares to cover his taking back
of the bit, it being dropped back Into his pouch and meeting the
rest of his pocket change with a small "clink". Daring to just
look up at the ponies, and allowing a brief moment of indulgence
in his fanboyism, the stallion waited for them to be finished
speaking before having Rainbow Dash's devouring of her fritter
remind him that he had one of his own. Taking another step
further away from the line to free up more space, Marked sat
down and unwrapped the napkin from around his sweet apple baked
goodie, taking much smaller bites to savor its flavor and avoid
having anymore sudden moments of nervousness cause him to choke
or something.
Moving on, he blinked at Applejack asking about what he's
written in the past, again feeling a wave of nerves that he
tried to battle back as he, somehow, blanked on his recollection
of his own works. When Rainbow asking his name afterwards and
claiming she may be familiar with one he's written, Marked
realized he'd stopped chewing all together, his current bite
just lingering half crushed between his teeth before he
recognized this and righted it by finishing it off a little
faster than he should have, his attempt to get the bite down
quickly scratching his throat and forcing him to cough. Okay,
now, he was going to get himself under control. Starting right
now. Taking a deep breath, Marked pulled himself together, him
pretending that the ponies he considered himself lucky to speak
with were just a baker and an off duty weather pony.
And then Applejack mentioned having Rainbow telling him first
hoof accounts of adventures shed had in the past, something the
Pegasus mare seemed eager fully willing to follow up on. Marked
didn't squee often, but that day he squeed with a big strong
grin at the thought of hearing about such past adventures from
one of the ponies who'd actually been a part of it, even if he
knew from reputation that the mare retelling said stories was
very likely to embellish in her favor. Immediately realizing
what he'd done, the writer cleared his throat and pretended to
cough into his hoof, this being done to hide hos attempts to
both force his grin into one that was less likely to cause his
head to be split in half from its sheer size and to hopefully
make his voice regain its normal male bass as opposed to its
current filly level squeal.
"M-my names Marked Twine," he finally introduced himself,
feeling kind of silly that ot had been so difficult for him even
given who the others were, "and I wouldn't be surprised if you
never heard of me, I'm not a big name in literature or anything.
My last book was titled Delphinus, and the one before that was
The Mare From Shallow Waters. Neither of them exactly made
headlines or anything. I have others too, but they're pretty
uknown to most." Taking yet another breath, he went on to their
idea of him hearing Rainbow possibly fuel the flames of his
creativity with stories of her own. "And I would love to hear
about all of those things. Those kinds of exciting stories could
be exactly what I need to get over this block of mine."

Applejack only rolled her eyes when Rainbow jabbed back at her,
not really surprised by her reaction. When Rainbow invented her
new word, Applejack chuckled at her and spoke up with, "Yeah,
that's sure ta catch on, sug," before focusing her attention on
keeping the piling line moving. Then, after Rainbow Dash
mentioned freeing Cloudsdale from Discord's grasp, Applejack
laughed again and said, "Wait, are you talkin' about the time he
made you think that tiny cloud was Cloudsdale? Yep, you sure
saved everypony there," she said through her laughter, putting
the line on hold for a moment as she tried to recover.
She did so after letting her laughter die down and wiping a tear
from her eye, then gave a nod in greeting to Marked when he
introduced himself. She didn't really recognize any of the books
he mentioned, so she just continued exchanging treats for bits
as he spoke, before his last words spread a grin on Applejack's
face. "Excitin' stories? Hey, RD, you should tell him about the
time Twilight beat you in a race! Or when the Mysterious Mare Do
Well showed you up. Or how about when that dragon you mentioned
flicked you aside like you were a rag doll," she teased, a
wicked grin on her face as she glanced over to Rainbow.

Rainbow Dash tilted her head in confusion as the stallion
squee'd in excitement... It wasn't very often that she heard
that kind of reaction. Well, she did hear it a lot, but not from
an older stallion such as the one in front of her that seemed to
be... slowly recovering from his nerves. The Pegasus opted to
land as he spoke, brows furrowed at the mention of his name and
his subsequent works of literature. "Marked... Twine... Marked
Twine. Markedtwine Markedtwine," Dash tapped a hoof against her
chin, lost in thought as she attempted to place his name
somewhere. She wasn't too good with author's names, but the
title 'The Mare From Shallow Waters' definitely struck a bell.
In fact, Dash was pretty sure she had a copy laying somewhere on
one of her shelves. "Waaaaiiiit a second... You wouldn't happen
to be the same Marked Twine that moved to Ponyville some time
ago? I remember somepony telling me about Shallow Waters, so I
went to go check it out, and--"
Dash cut herself short as she came to a sudden realization...
While he wasn't quite A.K. Yearling, Marked Twine was definitely
up in her favorites with just that book alone. In fact, she had
been meaning to try and find more of his works. The Pegasus
emitted an unexpected squee as well, but she attempted to hide
it by turning her immediate attention to Applejack. "Yeah yeah,
laugh it up AJ. For all we knew, that was Cloudsdale. Besides,
by defeating Discord, I technically saved it anyways. Uh, WE, I
mean." Dash caught herself again, but she couldn't help but roll
her eyes at the orange mare's remarks, but she particularly
scowled at the Mare-Do-Well remark. "Yikes, AJ. Playing for
keeps today? Let me remind you that Twilight-Egghead beat you,
too. But that was because we were both scrambling over who was
the better pony to begin with. Even you have to admit that."
Rainbow Dash smiled, although it was hard to tell if it was
forced or not... "And that whole Mare-Do-Well thing? That was...
low... But in retrospect, perhaps I needed that one..." At this
point, Dash walked over to Applejack and threw a hoof around her
neck much like she did with Marked earlier. "And as for the
dragon? I'd like to see you trot up and buck a dragon square in
the mouth. Oh, and lets not forget your stories. Like coddling
and cooing to an inanimate tree on a train. Or pretty much
single-hoofedly causing an all out war between the Appleoosans
and the Buffalo. OR demolishing your own barn at your own family
reunion." The Pegasus glanced over to Twine and tried to stifle
a laugh as she imagined what he thought of the exchange.

---------------------------------------------------------
Grinning, now excitedly instead of nervously, Marked's ears
alternated between the two mares as he listened to everything
they said, his eyes and hooves busy searching his saddle bags
for his glasses and a, mostly, fresh notebook for jotting down
some notes and what not for future reference. Finding what he
was after, the stallion was distracted by Rainbow's repeating of
his name, the pen he was sticking into his mouth hanging loosely
as he blinked at her, "Y-yup," he said, briefly turning his body
to show his cutie mark, "or at least that's what my cutie mark
keeps telling me." When she said shed heard about one of his
books, the stallion grew both excited and nervous, him excited
to know if shed ever actually read it and nervous as to if shed
liked or hated it. At her squee his thoughts were derailed, the
pegasus spinning half way around, eyes darting about as he
expected the mare to have possibly caught sight of another one
of her friends, something that he probably wouldn't have been
able to survive had it been true.
By the time he looked back the two mares were again in the
middle of an exchange, Marked then sitting down and listening in
as he scribbled a few things down on occasion. He was smiling
around his pen almost the entire time, him enjoying what they
were talking about even as they continuously pointed out details
the other probably wanted to keep more quiet, Marked being heard
quietly echoing things they said in a mutter such as "thought
cloud was Cloudsdale" and "demolished own barn". The stallion,
of course, began to have plenty of questions come to mind, all
of which he wanted to ask at once, but he kept himself quiet as
he let them continue on, waiting until enough of a pause to
chime in a "little" himself.
"I heard about that Mare-Do-Well pony. Do either of you know
what actually happened to her? From what I've gathered she just
kind of dropped off the grid after that short time. Also, you
bucked a dragon? Woah! Why? How? Did you get close enough I
mean." He turned his attention to Applejack now, him appearing
to be trying to stifle a small chuckle, "Is... Is that the
secret to why your apples are so good? I've heard that talking
to plants makes them healthier but... And you almost started a
war? Was this before or after the barn incident?"

---------------------------------------------------------
Applejack rolled her eyes again when Rainbow took all the credit
for defeating Discord for a moment, probably in-time with the
eye roll Rainbow gave. She only grinned after that, the reminder
about Twilight having beaten her too not really catching her too
much off-guard, since she'd remembered that fact when she
brought the story up. She continued shelling out treats and
taking bits as Rainbow went on to talk about some stories
revolving Applejack this time. She sighed quietly at the first,
shook her head at the second, and winced at the third. She
opened her mouth to respond to Rainbow, but paused when Marked
spoke up with some questions of his.
He started off with the Mare-Do-Well, earning a slight grin from
Applejack when she realized he didn't know who the Mare-Do-Well
had been. He then asked about Rainbow bucking a dragon, which
Applejack knew was going to get blown out of proportion by
Rainbow. At least Applejack was there to set the story straight.
The grin turned into a smile of pride once Marked asked about
her trees and the quality of their apples, only to fade slightly
when the barn incident was brought up again. "Lemme start off by
sayin' somethin'," Applejack began as she hoofed over an
apple-glazed cinnamon roll to the next pony in line. "Ah didn't
almost start that war 'single-hoofedly'. RD had a hoof in it,
too. Heck, if RD hadn't've come inta Appleloosa sayin' they
should move fer the buffaloes, that whole fight never woulda
started... But then, things also wouldn't've gotten fixed, so it
worked out.
"As fer Bloomberg," Applejack continued, shooting a quick glance
over to Rainbow. "He weren't no inanimate tree. He could hear
every word y'all said about him. But yeah, Marked, that's why
mah apples always turn out the best in all o' Equestria. Some
ponies would be surprised what a lil' tender love 'n' care could
do fer 'em," Applejack continued, once more tossing the briefest
of glances over to Rainbow. "An' Mare-Do-Well? Who knows? Ah
heard she wasn't needed in Ponyville anymore, so she moved on
somewhere else. Ah reckon she'll show up again if somepony needs
her. Like if somepony's head gets too big again," she finished,
though she didn't glance over to Rainbow this time.
"Ya know, Ah'm surprised a writer pony can even get writer's
block. Ah'd've figgered yer special talent would've helped
against that. Anyway, Ah've never read any o' yer books. What
kinda stuff d'you write? RD, what d'you think of his books,
since you've apparently read some of 'em already?"

---------------------------------------------------------
Snorting distastefully at now the second mention of the
Mysterious Mare-Do-Well, Rainbow Dash opted to remove herself
from behind the stand and return to her original spot near
Marked Twine, but not before lightly flicking Applejack's snout
with the tip or her tail. The Pegasus held some sort of vendetta
against that name, and she knew Applejack was using it to her
advantage. Granted, Rainbow Dash had come to terms that she
deserved what had happened that day, but it didn't mean that it
bothered her any less. In fact, what bothered her even more was
that she couldn't think of something to level the playing field.
"Yeeeeaaahhh yeahhhh...," she finally replied, almost defeated
by the mere idea. "The Mysterious Mare entrusted Ponyville's
protection to us. And in that case, I'm sure she won't be needed
any time soon." Dash glared at AJ as she spoke, although the
orange mare never turned to face her. It would be in her best
interest to drop the subject all-together...
Dash flopped on the ground and rolled over on her back,
stretching rather loudly before she tucked her fore-hooves
behind her head and then crossed her hind legs. "You know, I'm
not sure how you expect me to believe that you and your family
coo at every tree in that massive orchard of yours like you did
for... Bloombug or whatever... But you know what? I'm not even
going to question it. Your cider more than speaks for itself."
Dash then turns her cerise gaze upward to Marked, looking at him
upside-down from her position laying on the ground. "Well, AJ,
I've only read The Mare From Shallow Waters, and it was totally
awesome. It was action-y adventure-y, kinda like Daring Do.
Maaayybe a little creepy, but I wasn't scared, of course. Full
of plot twists, one right after another, like the mansion
chapter or who the mare REALLY was! Ugh! Just as I thought I
knew what was going on, WHAM! Another curveball! I mean, who
would have expected Derrick Shore to be a double-double agent!?"
The Pegasus continued to ramble, using her her hooves to express
a multitude of gestures as she described various events in the
book. She eventually slowed to a stop once she realized what she
was doing and glanced back up at Marked with a nervous chuckle.
"I... uh... Sorry... I get carried away sometimes."
Tired of her current position, Rainbow Dash rolled lazily back
on her hooves and dusted herself off a bit, taking small a
moment to study the steady line. "Oh yeah!" she exclaimed,
suddenly shooting into the air. She disappeared for a second or
two at the most before returning with a conveniently sized
cloud, allowing it to rest just a few inches from the ground
before flopping on top of it and adjusted herself accordingly.
"Ah, that's soooooo much better than the ground. Now... Where
were we... Oh, yes! The dragon! Well, you see, getting close
wasn't a problem at all thanks to my awesome ninja skills. We
were trying to get it to move from its lair because smog was
drifting down into Ponyville. I dunno if you've ever seen dragon
smog, pal, but it's not pretty. Now, would you believe that this
dragon had the gall to ignore us? I mean, we tried to ask it
nicely, but as soon as things got violent, I bucked it right in
the mouth. POW! Right in the kisser! That dragon didn't even
know what hit it! Of course, that only made it really angry...
Believe it or not, Fluttershy, of all ponies, managed to tame it
and convince it to move... But not before an all out battle
royale with fire, claws, and fangs." Rainbow Dash smiled once
more

/>knowing full well that her setup was going to be torn down by
Miss Honesty... At least she made it sound cooler...
"And what about that barn, AJ? It must have been pretty bad if
it's something you won't even talk about... At least you got a
shiny new one out of it, if that's any consolation."

Marked, watching the pair with interested eyes as he eagerly
listened to the them give more details about some past events,
was beginning to forget about his notes, instead just focusing
on the mares and having the pen in his mouth dangle loosely in
his smile. Eyes catching the cinnamon roll being passed off, he
was once again reminded of his own apple fritter, it now sadly
much less warm after having been forgotten for the second time
and put off to the side. Setting his pen down onto his notebook,
the earth pony picked his treat back up and started to munch
away while Applejack told her side to the stories.
That near war was stirring up more questions, as it should
considering how it was seemingly both of the mares faults to
some extent, and it turned out that she did name her tree.
Bloomberg apparently. Marked wondered if she did that for all of
her trees just as Rainbow said something similar but leaned
towards not pressing the issue. And that Mare-Do-Well subject...
Marked was starting to get the feeling that it was some source
of teasing for Rainbow. He didn't know much about what happened
when it came to details, but what he did know was that Dash had
been in some form of rivalry with the caped hero for a short
time, and that the Mare-Do-Well had shown her up on more than a
few occassions. From how confident and proud the mare seemed, it
was easy to assume that its probably not the most pleasant of
memories for her to relive and was probably used as a counter by
her friends when she got a little too proud. Shame they didn't
know where she went though.
Deciding not to dig deeper into that part of the conversation
anymore, Marked moved on to try and answer Applejack's own
questions, a small frown taking over his features in place of
his smile as she mentioned her surprise over a pony with a
talent for writing getting writers block. Another attempt at a
bite of his fritter was met with nothing but napkin as he hadn't
even noticed he'd finished the treat off, the revelation pulling
the edges of his mouth down a little further. Preparing to
answer the farm pony, the stallion cut himself off once he heard
AJ ask Rainbow about his book, immediately putting his own
answer on hold as he turned his attention to the colorful mare
relaxing on the ground, ears pinned back slightly as he started
to look nervous, almost not wanting to know her opinion of his
work while also really wanting to find out.
It was praise. A lot of praise. Marked's grin returned instantly
at Rainbow's words, her first ones being to go so far as to call
his book "totally awesome" before getting more into detail as
she described it. By the time she was rambling Marked's grin was
happier and warmer, him wearing a heavy blush and not being able
to stop himself from staring at his hooves. Critics in the past,
whatever few had given his book their time, had claimed he'd
tried to do too many things with Shallow Waters, possibly
stretching himself too thin, and that his attempts to keep the
story unpredictable had caused it to be unfocused, but he'd had
confidence throughout the long days and nights spent writing its
chapters that it was all just how it should have been. And now,
sitting here, listening to a mare he himself was a huge fan of
talk about how much she had enjoyed it... He knew he'd been
right to stick to it. Right to take the risks instead of just
play it safe.
"Gosh..." He said, grin widening a little and looking a little
silly now as he used a hoof to idly scratch at the ground as
Rainbow finished, "thank you so much. I'm really happy you liked
it. Often times I worry that the double-double agent twist could
have been too easily predicted after the exchange in chapter 24,
him acting all suspicious around the case and stuff, but its
good to hear I didn't blow it." Marked wasn't used to direct
praise as his relatively shy demeanor and strong blush was
probably making clear. He knew he had fans out there, I mean, he
wasn't living on the street so somepony had to be buying his
books, but to have somepony give him a positive opinion in
person... he wasn't very used to it. Trying to pull himself
together, the writer again attempted to answer Applejack's
questions, his earlier frown now nowhere to be seen.
"Well, it helps to have a talent in storytelling, but
unfortunately that doesn't make me immune to the occasional
creative dry spells. It doesn't happen too often, but it can get
pretty frustrating when it does. As for what I write, my
specialty lies with the adventure genre, but I try to give every
genre a chance to see what I can do. For example, I have a
horror story, a science fiction tale and an... 'eh' attempt at a
romance novel." Still not being able to really look fully at
Dash yet as he was still a bit shy about the praise shed given,
Marked only gave a quick glance as she sped off to find a cloud,
him nearly squeeing a second time at the showing of speed that
the pegasus was known for. He got over his shyness when she
returned though and began to start telling her story about
assaulting a dragon, Marked hanging on every word as he listened
intently and wished he had bought another one of Applejacks
delicious apple fritters or could somehow materialize a bucket
of popcorn to snack on as he drank in the story.
About to ask more questions regarding how a pony like Fluttershy
had managed to calm the apparently violent, wild and rampant
beast, the writer paused when he saw Dash's smile, him starting
to feel like something may be a little off here... Looking over
to Applejack, he gave her a silent request for confirmation with
his eyes, a look that was soon twisted into one of amusement as
Dash brought up the subject of her barn again, him having
forgotten about it and not noticed how shed left such a story
out earlier.
