While he tries, Emerald mentions how Lord Sepulcher draws comics, and Ruby says,
"Yeah man, I love comics!"
Emerald looks a bit skeptical, and asks how she could read them if she didn't know how until recently.
"Well I mean, I can kind of figure out what is going on just by looking at the pictures, plus one of the people I used to work with did record keeping, so he'd read me some stuff if I made him treats."
Emerald and Ruby continue to speak while the colt attempts to cast his spells. He starts to feel woozy after a while and decides to stop.
Ruby gives a bit of a yawn.
Perhaps it's time for bed.
What does Emerald do?
