On behalf of myself and all the Wonderbolts, I'd like to wish each and every mom out there, in Equestria and beyond, a very Happy Mother's Day!

[Captain Spitfire @Capt_Spitfire]

What a party it's been, San Franciscolt! Thank you all for coming out to see us! You've been amazing!

[Captain Spitfire @Capt_Spitfire]

All right, 'Bolts. It's go time! Let's give em a show they'll never forget!

*lowers her flight goggles over her eyes*

Skies are clear and we're cleared for takeoff. Let's fire it up!

Wonderbolts roll out!

[Captain Spitfire @Capt_Spitfire]

*it's show day, and she is more than ready for it! All the practices, all the training, all the planning comes down to this*

*flips through the latest weather reports for San Franciscolt*

Looks like the flyover of the bridge is on for today, 'Bolts! We've got only a few clouds.

[Captain Spitfire @Capt_Spitfire]

@Dusty_Kat There ya are. See you at the show tomorrow, right? Got a spot in the booth for ya if you want it. *grins* Hot Shot is looking for an extra announcer.

[Captain Spitfire @Capt_Spitfire]

*trots over to meet up with the rest of the team as they gather for practice. She looks around curiously*

Anypony see @Dusty_Kat? He's not on duty, but I figured he'd be around for practice anyway.

[Captain Spitfire @Capt_Spitfire]

*even though most of the team were out partying last night, she knows each will be ready to fly at a moment's notice come practice time this afternoon*

*she's off to an early start, herself. Suited up and starting her pre-flight stretches*

Let's do this!

[Captain Spitfire @Capt_Spitfire]

*up in her hotel room this morning, she nudges a good and passed out @mlp_Fleetfoot who, instead of sleeping in her bed, only managed to make it as far as the hotel couch*

All right, Fleets. C'mon. I know you overdid it at the party floor last night, but we've got work to do!

[Captain Spitfire @Capt_Spitfire]

Hey, San Franciscolt! We're looking forward to seeing you all this weekend! Be sure to cheer loud and proud, 'cause the Wonderbolts are in town!

[Captain Spitfire @Capt_Spitfire]

*after the seventeenth time, an annoyed Spitfire pushes the magazine out of her face*

You know those magazines are all tabloid garbage, right? You remember what they wrote about Thunderlane a few months ago...

[Captain Spitfire @Capt_Spitfire]

*the team is on the train to San Franciscolt. She's looking over flight charts and weather reports. Blaze is seated next to her, flipping through some gossip magazine. There's an occasional giggle before Blaze shoves the magazine into her face*

[Captain Spitfire @Capt_Spitfire]

*packing her flight gear for the upcoming journey out to San Franciscolt. All around her, the rest of the team are busy packing their own bags as well*

Don't forget your toothbrushes, Bolts! We're gonna be out there for a few days!

[Captain Spitfire @Capt_Spitfire]

On behalf of myself and the entire Wonderbolts organization, we'd like to wish you all a very happy Hearth's Warming!

[Captain Spitfire @Capt_Spitfire]

@kwr2k20 @lilsqueakerM @mlp_mod (( Yeah, I haven't been able to log in there, myself. Not too sure what's up there. ))

[Captain Spitfire @Capt_Spitfire]

*down in the mess hall, helping a few teammates and crew put up decorations for the party. Of course, she's keeping a wary eye on Rainbow, as that one is known to pull a prank or two. Especially on Nightmare Night*

Last year, she swapped Misty's facepaint with permanent markers!

[Captain Spitfire @Capt_Spitfire]

*making her way down to the mess hall, chatting with Blaze along the way*

Just had to requisition a SIXTH case of candies for Nightmare Night. I just don't get it. I'm 99.9% sure it's @mlp_clipper taking them, but he's never been caught doing it. Not even a wrapper by his bunk!

[Captain Spitfire @Capt_Spitfire]

*sorts through a stack of final scores on her desk, shuffling them around based on who she feels performed best during Trials Week*

Always tough to choose when we have two standouts that are nearly equal in their scores. Both will make fine Wonderbolts one day...
