Getting the Massage
Apr. 21st, 2015 11:12 pmToday is the day Rarity and Fluttershy usually meet at the spa. As I was still sore from picking zap apples, I went too.
I brought five zap apples, two for the spa ponies, one for Rarity, one for Fluttershy, and a spare. While I waited with Fluttershy for Rarity to arrive, I gave the two zap apples to the spa ponies and ordered the massage treatment. Rarity arrived and I gave them each an apple too.
Fluttershy has been busy with Amethyst Star preparing the tree shaping proposal. They are worried it might not pass the scrutiny of the Ethics Board. There is the perpetual concern of accidentally creating another parasprite or poison joke. Or a whipping willow. It's not always easy to keep such things restrained to the Everfree forest.
When they have it all prepared and typed out, Amethyst Star will take care of the correspondence as well as any delegations from the Biome Management Association.
That massage and soak in the hot tub did me a world of good. I'm still tired but at least I'm not still sore.

I'm sure the tree shaping proposal will pass the ethics. Unless there's some sort of side effect, it sounds like it'll be a good thing.

It's easy to spot a whipping willow from afar, they flay everything within reach -- a whipping willow is surrounded by bare ground. Nopony can get near one, so flame throwers or unicorn magic is needed to cut one down. You have to keep going back, whipping willows spread by seed and from the roots.
This is why we have a review process for cases like this.
