Previous Chapter Next ChapterThe meeting went something like this.
Cozy Glow: "Somepony's stolen SCP-XX69."
Lyra: "How are you pronouncing that out loud, exactly?"
Bonbon: "Hush."
Cozy Glow: "Are you two listening?"
Lyra: "We are, but I don't know about her."
Bonbon: "Uncalled for!"
Cozy Glow: "Listen3. I need the two of you out there looking for clues. If it gets back that we've let an anomalous artifact slip only a day after containing it in the first place, there could be serious lasting damage to our overall reputation."
Lyra: "I thought our specific goal was not to have a reputation. Exactly what kind of reputation are you talking about here?"
Cozy Glow: "That's classified information."
Lyra: "Oh [REDACTED]."
Bonbon: "Lyra! Language!"
Lyra: "Sorry."
Cozy Glow: "I don't think you need any more information. Ponyville should be your first place to look for leads. It's unlikely SCP-XX69 will return to its place of origin. Now that it’s loose, it will most likely be looking for a large congregation of... ice-cube biting. Or something like that."
Lyra: "Ice-cube biting?"

Cozy Glow: "Enough! Get to work, the both of you!"
Lyra & Bonbon: "Yes, ma'aam."
