Of course. I was a little surprised to find somepony already living in my cottage when I got here. [ Fluttershy puts a kettle on. She smiles at the phoenix. ] You were just hungry too, weren't you?

[ She takes out a couple of mugs and some leaves to begin brewing, hesitant to ask the question that she wants to. ] What do you... um... know about... the other me, Miss, um... [ Oh, horsefeathers. She doesn't know the other pony's name. ]

[wastelandkindness]

[Pyrelight trills an affirmative response, then half hops - half flies to Velvet's side and alights on her armored shoulder.]

Velvet. Velvet Remedy. Stable 02.

[She sighs.]

The first thing you have to understand is the Ministries. Six government agencies, founded to aid Luna in running the civilian and military government. I - I think you can guess who founded them easily enough.

[kind_to_all]

[ She frowns. ] I ... guess that I could. In... our future? So soon? [ Fluttershy's ears droop. The last thing she wants - ever - is violence in the place she calls home. ]

[wastelandkindness]

I... hope not. I wouldn't wish my world on anyone.

[She chuckles.]

Yours - or rather, my Fluttershy's - was the Ministry of Peace. It was in charge of diplomatic operations, feeding the hungry, caring for the sick. Applejack was in charge of the Ministry of Technology - the Ministry of Wartime Technology, but she never called it that and despised the arms dealers that hid under her aegis.

There is a reason I thought of the two of them - of your... counterpart? - As the only sane Ministers.

[kind_to_all]

Are... are all of my other friends okay, too? [ The kettle hisses, Fluttershy gets up to fix the tea. She's a little afraid to hear the answer. ]

[wastelandkindness]

Not back home. No.

Fluttershy, I'm from... I don't even know how many generations removed from the Ministries and the war. Their age was long past.

[kind_to_all]

Oh. [ Fluttershy brewed the tea and brought back the cups, not looking at the other pony. ]

I'm sorry.

[wastelandkindness]

Of all of the people to apologize for the war...

[She takes an orb from her saddlebags, a crystal sphere]

Your counterpart recorded this. Memory orb. When everything was falling apart, she urged diplomacy with the Zebra. I don't know if you can read it, it's tied to Unicorn magic, but...

Here.

[kind_to_all]

We fought the Zebras?... [ This saddens her even more. She takes the orb gingerly and peers at it. Not sure how to get it to work. ] How do you... read it? [ She brings it close to her eye and peers into it. ]

[wastelandkindness]

Yes.

...I would tell you to touch your horn to it, if you had one. As it is, I think that... your Twilight should be able to rig something up.

[She drinks the tea.]

This is wonderful.

[kind_to_all]

I'm glad you like it.

[ She sets the orb down. ] I can take it to Twilight, but there's nothing I can do with it right now. I'm sorry.
