>You turn to Firefly and Sky Squall.
"Any good suggestions?"
>Sky Squall smirks.
>"Plenty. But I suppose we shouldn't give them personal accounts."
>Sky Squall does not seriously suggest that, yet you can see in his demeanour that he is nevertheless somewhat tempted by the thought.
>You nod.
"Yeah, we better keep a low profile. I guess... we could give them a couple of tales about Flash instead."
>The stallion's ears perk up as he hears that name.
>"Flash? That amber hotshot?"
>His tone surprises you a bit.
>For Sky Squall's voice sounds slightly agitated.
>Not much, but still noticeable.
"The one. Is something wrong with him?"
>The Pegasus stallion shakes his head.
>"No, not really. Except for one thing."
>Then he grumbles.
>"I never got the chance to challenge him. Everypony praises him for what he has done, but we've done similar things."
>He pauses.
>"If anything, we've done more. We didn't just dodge the dragons as he did. We beat them."
>True, but you were a team, facing a comparatively small group of adolescent dragons.
>He was alone, and he challenged a roaming band of rogue dragons on his own.
>Key difference.
>However, you do not point this out and let him elaborate.
>"It would've been something to test the mettle of a pony of 'legends'."
>Sky Squall emphasises the last word deliberately.
>One might think that he does so either out of envy or malevolence, given that said amber Pegasus has become a more prominent figure than him.
>But you know better.
>He does not want to belittle the achievements of Flash Magnus, he wants them to be accurate.
>Because it means that he is a venerable opponent to spar with.
>Sky Squall's only discontent stems from the fact that he "died" before he had the chance to meet the amber stallion.
>Though to be fair, the advanced age of his body at the time would have been a major disadvantage for him as well.
>And now, the opportunity is gone.
>For the better part of a millennium, at least.
"Well, I'm sorry it didn't work out. But this whole 'Limbo' issue isn't a permanent state of things. Your chance will come again."
>Provided that Sky Squall is still interested in it, almost a thousand years into the future.
>You guess that he will though.
>The stallion nods too, confirming your assumption.
>"I know. I just wish it wouldn't take literal ages."
>Sky Squall pokes your chest.
>"I guess you'll have to do until then."
>Then he grins.
>"And we have a plan to keep you around for that long, now don't we."
>#deca.mare inhales before she chimes in.
>Sky Squall made the comment on purpose to hear her opinion on the matter.
>You have not talked about his proposal any further after the match because you came here to have a vacation, but considering that said trip is coming to an end fairly soon, it seems that the Pegasus is slowly getting back into his working mode.
>And #deca.mare is eager to give him what he wants.
