hi. Monsterlord-18 here.

i'm just here to let you know that taking place between the previous chapter, Prelude to Trouble, and the next chapter, Eris, is the side-story Matchmaker

i highly recommend reading that before reading the next chapter as you will be DEATHLY confused with what happens next chapter.

in the side story, the humans, Requiem mostly, tries to think of a way to pay back the ponies who took them in when they were stranded on their world and comes up with something good; set each one up with their significant other for Heart's and Hooves day. that simple decision turns into the most eventful 2 weeks during the humans stay.

and that's all i'm telling you. you wanna know what happens, read the story.
