[It's pretty much been established that Dash thinks she is not only invincible, but also the most awesome thing since sliced bread harvested oat... and recently, her pride was knocked down a few pegs.

Which is why she is currently trying to climb one of those EVIL LEDGES Jack warned her about, out on Route 32. Her Pokemon, who rarely stay in their

[Ow, that looked painful]

Are you all right? It's better if you don't try climbing the ledges around Johto--apparently they aren't very...climb-able. [Pause] But it looks like you've already noticed that.

[Video]

[used_defog]

Yeeeeeah, kinda.

[She's sitting up by now, and sporting quite a few scrapes and a bloody nose.]
Not like I didn't see it comin' though-- I totally meant to do that. I mean, didja see me fly through the air and stuff? It was awesome! [... Dash, that was not "flying through the air", that was "plummeting to the ground".]

[Video]

[tiercelet]

That didn't look like it was planned. [Pause] You might want to take a look at your nose and make sure you didn't break it--it's bleeding.

[Video]

[used_defog]

Huh-- Oh.

[She goes cross-eyed as she tries to get a better look, then wipes away the blood with a swipe of her hand.]
Well... that's never happened before. [Aw, baby's first nosebleed.] Uh... it doesn't hurt much...

[Video]

[tiercelet]

You must've scraped it when you fell. Well. If it isn't hurting, you probably didn't break it.

That's good news, right?

[Video]

[used_defog]

Uuhhh... I guess so...

[She trails off, looking elsewhere, then turns back to the screen with a grin.] What doesn't kill ya makes ya stronger, right? Battle scars!

[Video]

[tiercelet]

...I have a feeling you and Arthur would have gotten on. I can imagine him saying exactly that.

[Video]

[used_defog]

Oh yeah?

[She grins brightly.] Must've been a pretty awesome guy then!

[tiercelet]

2/2

[tiercelet]

Yeah. You could say that.

[used_defog]

[Her grin fades for a moment.]
... Is he... back where you guys came from?

[Video]

[tiercelet]

He was here for a while, but he was sent home just yesterday.

[Video]

[used_defog]

... Oh. [Her gaze softens. She may act like the most self-centered pony ever, but she does form very strong friendships, and is fiercely loyal. She frowns.]
I'm... sorry. That just sucks, dude...

[Carefully:] Do ya miss him? [Because she misses her friends more than she thought she would. ;;]

[Video]

[tiercelet]

[A soft chuckle as he rubs his hand over his face]

He might be a royal prat most of the time, but he's still my best friend. So...yeah, I miss him.

[Video]

[used_defog]

[She doesn't know what a "prat" is and would probably ask-- BUT LOSING FRIENDS IS SERIOUS BUSINESS IN EQUESTRIA. Friendship is, of course, MAGIC. She nods.]

Yeah... [Beat.] But if he showed up once, he'll probably show up again later, right? Just gotta... [Have patience? No, no, Dash hates being patient!] Have faith and stuff, right? [Being helpful: doing it wrong.]

[Video]

[tiercelet]

It seems like a possibility. Have faith? [Smile] I think I can do that.

[He props his face against his hand] Hazarding a guess here, but you must be new if you're testing the ledges.
