Vega: Think about it, though. Let's suppose Ghost is a changeling—or some other creature, obviously not the average pony, who has control over his form, or else can keep this particularly bland one he has operated with for such a long time. If he knew others would see his face over the years, be they clients, the police, or Thrush agents, why not let himself age a little? Why not avoid being seen at all, and leave some other mark at the scene?

* The bat-pony works his jaw and slows a little as they near the docks.*

Vega: It smacks of arrogance. That, or impunity. His style attracts too much attention from Equestria's superheroes. He may very well be working with someone else—benefactors with heavier purses than Ironbeak, and whose resources would more interest a hitpony such as himself.

* Glaive whips out the zip ties and approaches the two pilots.*

Glaive: Let's see some hooves. Who are you?
