After meeting Mako’s marefriend, Lady’s calm visit was suddenly tensed. But for her brother’s sake, she put on a sweet attitude when he arrived home. It was a pain to pay nice with him in the room. Once Bubble Lee left the house, and Mako lead Lady to his shop things appeared to seem fine.
Lady: Well this is something I I’d doing. But it was a very nice shop, a lot of interesting things.
Mako: What did you do..?
Lady: stiffens up slightly but doesn’t move … Hm?
Mako: I know you did something to Bubble. I could see it. What happened?
Lady: Nothing. Turns to face him, smiling We talked, got to know each other, then had some tea.
Mako: stares her down, his ears twitching
Lady: ….. smile starts to fade …. I’m just trying to help you..
Mako: And what part of it was “helping”, she was so nervous I thought she’d jump out of her fur!
Lady: Hmph. That would’ve been entertaining to see.
Mako: Lady.. said in a low growl
Lady: Well what were you expecting, Mako? That I’d just, be smiles and giggles when meeting this mare? What do you even know about her, how do you know she can be trusted?!
Mako: It’s only been a couple weeks, I’m not going to snoop and stick my nose in places it doesn’t belong just to see if she’s hiding anything!
Lady: Well maybe you should! I’m not going to watch as you get hurt again!
Mako: I can take care of myself in case you haven’t noticed! I’m not as naive as I used to be, you don’t have to protect me anymore..!
Lady: How would you know? Mako, I’ve heard her name before. Back in Ponyville, I’ve heard things and it doesn’t sound like she’s someone you should be involved with.
Mako: ears twitch, tilting his head …. What are you implying..?
Lady: scoffs Please. That while thing about toothpaste being able to get rid of hickeys. How do you think she’d know something like that? That didn’t sound even the least bit suspicious to you?
Mako: eyes tense, his fists tightening but then relaxing However, or WHY she’d ever learn that is none of my business. I don’t know if you’d figured it out yet, but it’s not like I’ve been a saint over these years we’ve been apart.
Lady: looks at Mako in surprise, then growls Ugh, of course. Why wouldn’t I be surprised, of course you’d end up with a hussy when you yourself are the bigger-
Mako: So I’m supposed to take this from you? Cuz from what I’m getting, you were too wrapped up in Estrus to really care WHO was Daniel and Annie’s father!
Lady: eyes widen and bares her teeth in a snarl
Mako: ears fold back …. Shit…
