Fluttershy: Am I close to finding the caretaker?
DM: You hear a sound that is remarkably like a meadowlark’s song… but it turns out to be an old earth pony whistling while he rakes away some leaves.

Fluttershy: Oh, well, um, I’d love it if you can show me how to approach the animals here. My understanding is that they’re very particular… But you see, I have the ability to speak to animals, and I’d love to hear what they have to say about the palace and its royals!
Caretaker: That’s nice. Just gimme a sec.
Fluttershy: Um… Roll Insight?
DM: You don’t have to roll: He doesn’t really believe you, but he’ll humor you.
