Penny Sweet tilted her head, confused by the reaction of her boss, and former coworker. "Spoon, where are you... ?" but the other mare had already raced outside, toward the terrace, Penny couldn't help but notice.
The unicorn eyed the diamond dog, who didn't seem to understand why things had suddenly gotten awkward, but seemed to be embarrassed on the others' behalf nonetheless.
