ME TOO!
>>25825389
tfw no weirdly clingy Sunset gf
>>25825389
Let's see.
Time After Time!Anon would just shake his head and slowly turn back to what he was doing.
Homecoming Anon would wave and whisper I love you back.
Winter Formal Dash!Anon would probably do a thumbs up, but be unease. It would trouble him.
>>25825461
No, Time After Time!Anon would have a paranoid breakdown, fall catatonic, and hallucinate about being on some kind of fucking magical pirate island.
>>25825389
Only girl I need
>>25825389
This makes me far happier than it should.
>>25825389
"W- What?"
>You are Anonymous. Just your everyman at Canterlot High.
>You found a note in your locker asking you to come to the far end of the school during lunch, but you didn't know who it was from.
>You never would have guessed that you were called out by Sunset Shimmer, one of the most prettiest girls in the whole school.
>She barely even had your attention before she dropped that on you. You're absolutely FLOORED.
>>25826550
Embrace Shimmer's love, Anon.
>>25826755
Dubs say continue.
>>25826764
Are those even real dubs?
I've never written before, so I'll consider it if enough people actually want to see where that's going. That being said, I'd love to see a different interpretation of the prompt. I sort of just wrote that because it looked like something that could be spun a lot of ways.
>>25826776
I would like to see the text you created continued, if you are willing, anon
>>25825389
Love you too, Sunset.
Sunny.
Sunshine.
Shimmy.
Sunny-buns.
>>25826840
ShimSham.
Sunset.
Sun-bun.Darling.
>>25826840
Sunny bunny
What are you, fucking gay?
What are you, some kind of fucking... faggot?
>>25826876
>That spoiler
L-lewd.
>>25826835
I guess I'll try to keep it rolling. Again, I have next to no experience doing this.
>She said it, plain as day, and now you're just standing there, struck dumb as you stare at her with a look of confusion on her face.
>As your brain manages to process it, you can see the warm, loving smile that she put on for her confession start to falter.
>You can't just say nothing and let this slip by.
>Come on, Anon, use your WORDS.
"Sunset.. I..."
>As you wrack your brain for a response, she looks at you with those beautiful cyan eyes, but your silence up to now has taken away that daring opening of hers.
>The gears in your brain are turning, but you're not fast enough.
>She starts to shrink away, and before you can get in a word edgewise, she hurries off.
>You're sure that you heard a small "I'll see you later, Anon," as she starts to get out of earshot.
>You blew it.
>SUNSET SHIMMER confessed her love to you at school and you BLEW IT.
>>25825389
"I love you too..."
>You feel someone nudging your ribs.
>"Anon?"
>Whoops looks like you fell asleep in class again.
>You were having a good dream too.
>Sunset whispered something to you as you pick your head off the desk.
>"What did you just say?"
>It was almost too much to bear.
>You wanted to tell her you love her.
>You wanted to embrace her, feel her, taste her.
>This desire only grew with time. But...
"N-nothing. Just talking in my sleep probably."
>She seemed to buy it.
>Spaghetti overflow avoided for now.
"So how are things with you and Adagio?"
>>25826958
I think I'm starting to formulate a really weird plan now if anyone's still interested after the way THAT post ended. I swear, I changed my mind three times during that trying to pick how I wanted it to play out.
>>25827033
I wanna see how this turns out.
>>25827033
I'm along for the ride
>>25826755
>>25826958
>Before you can try to chase after her, the bell rings.
>Now you have to deal with this running through your mind during Math?
>You make it into class on time and sit down.
>The whole time, you can't focus.
>You can't help but think about how you froze up.
>Remembering the happiness drain from Sunset's face is even worse.
>A girl that you like, a girl that is WAY out of your league likes you and you can't even respond with a simple "yes."
>Before you know it, the bell rings again, sending you off to your English class.
>You walk into Ms. Cherilee's room and take a seat, far enough away from the front to not gain much attention, but not so far back that you make yourself an obvious target for being called on.
>You'd probably be distracted from yet another lecture by your mistake earlier if not for the fact that you're slowly becoming aware of a feeling that someone's staring at you.
>>25827153
Don't be afraid to add just a little more detail on the surroundings
>>25827153
>You glance out of the corner of your eye to either side of you, but everyone else near you has their noses buried into a textbook.
>That awareness that you're being watched persists and is actually starting to slowly creep into a sense of dread.
>As it gets worse, you take a chance at getting caught not paying attention and glance around, taking a look behind you.
>The feeling stops all at once.
>When you look back, there isn't actually anyone looking at you.
>"Eyes up front or on the text please, Anonymous," you hear your teacher say.
"Y-yes Ms. Cherilee."
>You stare down at the book, not wanting to make eye contact with her or anyone else.
>After a few moments, you start to get that feeling again.
>It's like someone's boring into the back of your skull with their eyes.
>You put a hand on the back of your neck to scratch it and realize that you're actually sweating.
>The end of class can't come fast enough, but it eventually does.
>Luckily, today is a short day, so you can get out of here and try to sort out your thoughts.
>You quickly grab your things and head out of the classroom, not even bothering to jot down the instructions for what to do for next class.
>You head to your locker and quickly grab the rest of your things.
>The door clanks shut and you realize that the wide hall around you is empty.
>Time to get the fuck out of here.
>You start to bolt towards the nearest exit-
>"And just WHERE do you think you're going, MISTER?"
>>25827192
I do appreciate feedback from whoever's reading this. I guess I take for granted how we imagine the school to look?
>>25827223
>You freeze.
>That's a girl's voice.
>You recognize it, but you don't think you've ever heard anything like anger from it before.
>Slowly, you turn around and you can't believe your eyes.
"F-Fluttershy?"
>"Don't you "Fluttershy" me, Anon!"
>The piercing eyes staring you down are normally hidden behind that long, pretty pink hair.
>This is the most meek girl you've ever met, and you're having trouble making EYE CONTACT with her right now.
>You take a step back, and she responds by taking a step forward.
"Fluttershy, what are you doing? What is this about?!"
>She takes a step forward, and you take another step back.
>You slip on the tiled floor, and you're falling.
>You were blown away by a pretty girl today figuratively, and now it's about to be literal.
After all of the green that I've read, I can't believe some of the bad grammar and formatting I'm reading. Gonna have to pay more attention to what I'm doing.
>>25827310
>The landing on the floor isn't pleasant.
>Your backpack "cushioned" your fall, as well as something overloaded with big, heavy textbooks can.
>Always knew that it would be hard on your back to carry that thing around...
>After a moment of being shellshocked, you glance up.
>Fluttershy is standing over you.
>You may not know what you did to bring down the wrath of Hurricane Fluttershy, but it looks like she's about to let you have it.
>You avert your eyes down and away from hers, knowing that the worst of it is about to come.
>...
>But it doesn't.
>You boldly look up at Fluttershy to see her eyes tracing your previous line of sight, eyes wide not with that powerful stare, but with horror.
>You were so scared out of your wits that you didn't even realize thatyou were staring up her skirt.
>>25827436
>In the next moment, everything changed.
>"eep!"
>Fluttershy backed away from you, tripping on her own feet and falling onto her rear end with a thud.
>She's looking away from you now, a long lock of her hair obscuring half of her face.
>And she's blushing.
>That's a lot more like the Fluttershy that you're used to, that's for sure.
>Seeing this lets you gather up the courage to talk to her.
"Fluttershy... What was THAT all about?"
>You can see just enough of her face to notice that eyes turning to you, then away again.
>You sigh.
"I'm sorry, Fluttershy. I didn't mean to look at... you know..."
>Her cheeks may have been pink before, but now they're turning red.
"I didn't mean to. I mean, not that you're not really pretty-"
>You've gone from hardly getting a word out to putting your foot in your mouth.
>Good job, Anonymous.
>You sigh and take a moment to collect your thoughts.
>You're fortunate that Fluttershy can be so awkward that she might actually just sit there all day until you move.
"Really, Fluttershy, I'm sorry."
>She mumbles something, but you can't quite make it out.
".. I'm sorry, what was that, Fluttershy?
>She mutters it again, a little bit louder, but it's still not very distinct.
>She takes a deep breath.
>"You should tell that to Sunset."
>>25827588
That's all for tonight. Namefagging for the sake of attaching myself to this thing. If anyone actually likes this junk, I'll gladly write more because I actually have a plan now.
Feedback is appreciated!
>>25827640
Just a general rule of thumb, don't rush inti things. Build up what your going to, just don't go full dbz filler
>>25827640
pretty much this >>25827769
i'm liking what i'm reading, just dont rush it ok? build momentum and a story, don't just write whatever comes to your mind
>>25827769
>>25828030
I'm sure it seemed like I dropped a complete wildcard on the story, but I did that part for a reason.. Again, this is my first greentext story, but the weird plan that I started putting together actually needed this scene(in some capacity anyway, not sure if it turned out quite how I considered it.)
I'll add some more in a bit, I'm off on an errand.
>>25825389
So those rumours about you being nearly blind are true.
You realize that they only tell you this shit in order to get into yourwallet, don't you?
"Sorry, I'm not a Shimmerfag."
>"A... What? A fag? Wouldn't liking me make you straight, of at the very least bisexual?"
"No. I have something to tell you...
You're a guy."
>>25827640
Make a road map for yourself of what major events you want to happen.
>>25828907
Kek
>>25829067
And we only tell them that to get between their legs.
>>25829198She's still a cutie.
>>25829299
Already did. Now it's really a matter of making sure I can tie it together right and making it enjoyable to read.
More green coming shortly.
>Candy-colored high school chicks will never shyly pass you notes asking whether you like them or not.
>You will never meet a candy-colored high school chick after class.
>You will never get pressured by her friends to respond to her advances.
>You will never go to the prom with a candy-colored high school chick.
>She will never look into your eyes and ask you what you're thinking.
>You will never date a candy-colored high school chick.
>Canterlot High School is not a real place.
>Real high school chicks judge you harshly, all the time.
>Real high schools a re cesspools of cliques and social ostracism.
Welcome to your real life.
>>25825389
>>25827588
>She knows about what happened earlier with Sunset?
>Fluttershy is still avoiding eye contact with you.
"Sunset?"
>The gears in your head start turning, but you're not sure you can believe it.
>Fluttershy turns her head to look at you, face still partially obscured.
>She's not giving you the stare anymore, but the look that she's giving you now gives you the impression that you've done something wrong.
>"Sunset's one of my best friends, Anon. She's liked you for a long time. She told us that she was going to confess her feelings for you today, but when she came back, she was in tears."
>Even though her tone isn't as serious as it was earlier, her words still hit you like a brick.
>Were you totally oblivious, was she dropping hints before this?
>You shared one class with her last year, but you didn't think that you left any kind of impression, let alone even stand a chance with her.
>You curl up and look at the ground.
"I... I didn't mean to hurt her feelings. She caught me so off guard that I couldn't even respond. I just froze up..."
>You sit there, the guilt seeping in that your lack of nerve managed to hurt someone else's feelings.
>It would be better if you just faded away.
>Much to your surprise you feel something rubbing up against you.
>You look over to see a small, white rabbit.
>Blinking in surprise, you then take notice that Fluttershy is sitting next to you as well.
>She's looking straight ahead down the empty hallway.
"Fluttershy?"
>After all of that, now she's showing you some kindness?
>There's a moment of silence before she speaks again, softly this time.
>"I know what it's like... You know... To be too nervous to speak up..."
>You knew you weren't "alpha," but are you really so quiet that FLUTTERSHY is showing you empathy?
>>25829554
>She picks up the bunny.
>"If you really didn't mean to hurt Sunset's feelings, then I forgive you, Anonymous."
"Thank you, Fluttershy. I guess that I should apologize to Sunset as well. Maybe if I'm lucky, she'd be willing to give me a chance..."
>"You do like Sunset, then?"
>She's looking at you.
>You don't have to think long before you can at least say this much:
"I think I do."
>"I'll talk to her about all of this then, and-"
>She stops even though it seems like she has more to say.
>If there's anything you actually have good attention to, it's detail.
>Fluttershy has stopped making eye contact with you, she's looking down at the floor now.
>The gears in your head start turning as you try to grab any clues from this mess of a conversation.
>Wait, did she say"us"earlier?
>>25829568
thank you anon pls continue
>>25829568
>*click*
"She told us"
>You say it out loud this time as you recall what she said.
>Fluttershy seems to be desperately trying to not make eye contact.
"She told all of..."
>Oh, shit.
>You accidentally broke Sunset's heart, and they all know.
>Canterlot High's "Main Six"
>Six girls that are completely unalike from each other, but still manage to have more pull in the student body than any clique.
>You grab Fluttershy by the shoulders.
"Fluttershy... Please don't tell me that your friends are planning to come after me over this."
>She looks up at you, then closes her eyes and slowly nods.
>>25829763
>Well, that's not good.
"But... you know that I didn't mean to hurt Sunset. You can put in a good word for me, right? This won't be a problem."
>You sound hopeful, but that doesn't last long.
>Fluttershy slowly shakes her head.
"Come on... You're kidding, right? I'll go tell Sunset myself and clear all of this up."
>"I'm so sorry, Anon. I'll tell Sunset the truth about what happened, but my friends and I look out for each other. They might not even let you get close to her right now."
>Fluttershy opens her pack and gently places the bunny inside of it before getting up and putting it on.
>She offers you a hand to help you up.
>"I'll talk to my friends about it. Maybe I'm just expecting the worst out of them for no reason."
>You take her hand, letting yourself break into a small smile at her reassuring words.
"Yeah, you're probably right. I mean, your friends are pretty reasonable people, right?"
>You stand up straight and shift the weight of your bag around a bit.
"Thanks, Fluttershy."
>"Anon?"
"Yes..?"
>"I'm sorry that I cornered you like this. I wish I'd known that this was just a misunderstanding."
"It's really okay, Fluttershy, I forgive you."
>A few moments later."
>"A-Anon?"
"... Yes, Fluttershy?"
>"You can let go of my hand now. I mean, if you wouldn't mind..."
>>25829763
anon pls i cant wait any longer
>>25830291
Your wish is already granted.
I sort of took a lunch break between segments there, but I'll admit that my pace isn't great.
>>25830287
thx senpai
>>25830305
It's good
>>25825389
YOU MONSTER FREEZY POP
>>25830287
>One awkward dispersal later...
>You step outside of the school.
>After all of the crazy things that have happened today, you're thankful that you have some time off to yourself.
>Your Steam library IS starting to fill up with games you haven't even played yet...
>You drift off in thought on your walk home, then you hear your phone go off.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e6DM5ckcH14
>Are you really that plain?
>You HAVE to remember to change that later.
>You check to see who it is.
>It's Flash Sentry.
>He's a good friend, even though you two aren't in the same clique.
>You hang out sometimes and talk about music.
>You answer the call.
>"Hey, Anon! You going to the Jo-Colt show later?"
>You snicker.
"Man, I'll never understand why you like 'soft rock' music so much."
>"Hey, don't knock it until you try it. So, are you going?"
"I don't think so, Flash. Not this time."
>"What, afraid to try new music?"
Nah, I just had a really crazy day and want to spend the rest of it doing nothing.
>"What happened, Anon?"
"Did anything in particular HAVE to happen? Classes are hectic sometimes."
>"Yeah, but you don't give a crap about that stuff. Come on, man, spill it."
>>25830467
>You sigh.
"Fiiiine. But you have to promise you won't tell anyone."
>"Sure thing, bro... As long as it's not anything really juicy."
"Come on, Flash..."
>"Alright, alright. Just tell me."
>You explain to Flash the events of the day, starting with what happened during the lunch period.
>He doesn't believe you when you tell him that Sunset flat-out confessed to being in love with you.
>"Come on, Anon, you're pulling my leg."
>You understand his skepticism, but that doesn't stop you from taking it a little bit personally.
>You continue on, explaining how you froze up, and then she left.
>"That sounds like something you'd do."
"Why are we friends again?"
>"Chill Anon, I was just kidding. What happened next?"
>You tell Flash about how your day went more or less as normal until you were confronted by Fluttershy of all people.
>"She gave you THE STARE? Holy shit, Anon! I heard that she used that to reduce a bully to TEARS once."
>You tell him about the whole thing, omitting the part where you looked up her skirt by accident.
>You're a gentleman, after all.
"And that was it. We parted ways, and she's going to talk to her friends for me. Hopefully, everything will be fine."
>"Well..."
>Oh, come on.
>"You know, a couple of Sunset's friends are sort of hot-headed. Even if Fluttershy puts in a good word for you, they might still come after you."
"Not what I needed to hear today, Flash."
>"Better safe than sorry. They're not bad people though, so I can't imagine that they'll do anything too serious. Just know that you might have some more of what you got today coming up."
>You groan.
>"I'll catch you tomorrow, Anon. Good luck."
>>25830588
>You head home and spend the rest of the day in your room.
>As satisfying as gaming is after a stressful day, you can't quite help but shake the nagging feeling that things have only just begun.
>This is going to be a long week.
END OF MONDAY.
>>25830706
I know what the next part is like, but I'm going to go take a break and think on it a bit. Assuming the thread lives, I'll be back sometime tonight to write more.
>>25830713
So far I like, Especially love friend sentry.
>>25830779
Thought it would be weird if Anon didn't at least have SOME friends. Brad fit the bill just fine here.
>>25830822
It's just refreshing to have him as a pal instead of being a douche.
>>25825389
I love_metoo
>>25830706
>>25830713
I'm open to feedback on how things have gone so far.
Also, for title suggestions. Maybe "Rising for Sunset" is appropriate here? I almost called it "Anonymous vs the World" but that's not exactly what's happening here, even if those are a pretty good read.
>>25830909
It'd be pretty neat to see Anon and Sunset get into some shenanigans together, if only to differentiate your story from greens like Time After Time and Homecoming Anon.
![mlfw8990-h6BBB0FF8[1].gif](https://i.imgur.com/bILFAIO.gif "mlfw8990-h6BBB0FF8[1].gif")
>>25830706
Keep going... when you want to, of course.
>>25830933
I rather enjoyed Homecoming Anon. I think that Anon and Sunset hanging out during the week had a pretty good pace to it, even though their relationship didn't grow all that rapidly.
I don't know Time After Time though. If anyone has a link, I'd be down to peruse it.
As is right now, my game plan for this story only runs through the remainder of the week, the next section being the events that happen on Tuesday. How much Anon and Sunset see each other is entirely dependent on how the events of the week play out.

>Taking a look around, you think that you spot Sunset off in the distance.
>This could be your chance, Anonymous, go get her!
>You start down the hall, dodging through gaps in the hallway traffic.
>Before you make too much progress, you are overtaken by a familiar sensation.
>Are you falling AGAIN?
>As your face approaches the ground, your only thought is that maybe you should get some new shoes.
>Luckily for you, the impact never comes.
>An arm snaps out and catches you, hoisting you back up to your feet.
"I almost bit it for the second day in a row... Thanks for that."
You turn to look at who it is.

"Hey there, Applejack..."

>That sounds familiar...
"Look, just give me a chance to explain myself-"
>She lets go of your arm.
>"Save it. I heard what you had to say from Fluttershy last night."
>Wait, did Fluttershy come through for you?
"Okay?"
>"She may be quick to forgive, but the rest of us aren't so easily convinced. You really hurt Sunset, you hear?"
>You look down.
"I know, but-"
>"I said save it. You want to say something to me about it, you can do it after school."
"After school?"
>"Nothing like a little competition to make the truth come out."
"Competition?"
>"Cafeteria. Ten minutes after the last bell. If you're too yellow to show up, maybe you weren't good enough for Sunset to start."
>After that harsh verbal blow, she just walks away.
>As you stare in disbelief, you hear another familiar voice as a hand is placed on your shoulder.
>"Applejack this time, huh Anon?"
>It's Flash.
>And he looks smug.
"I guess you have until the end of the school day to brush up on your arm wrestling."

>You shoot Flash a desperate look and grab his shoulders, shaking him.
"Flash, I'm not an athlete. WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO, MAN?"
>Some people in the hall turn to look at you as a result of your outburst, then most of them start to shuffle away to go to their classes.
>Flash shrugs you off of him.
>"Don't have a cow, Anon. You're a smart guy, I'm sure you'll think of something."
>Real helpful, Flash.
>"Look man, I have to get to my first class. Shoot me a text if you're freaking out and need somebody to talk to about it."
>At least he's a good friend.
>You hurry off in the opposite direction to get to your next class.
>History with Ms. Harshwhinny.
>You arrive just in time to earn a look from your sour teacher, but not a tardy.
>You unpack your textbook and a spiral notebook, laying them out on the desk and taking a quick glance around the classroom.
>You see someone wave at you.
>Of course, it's Pinkie Pie.
>Is she smiling?
>Maybe Fluttershy at least managed to convince one person that you're not so bad after all.
>As the class starts up, you end up tuning out the lecture entirely, pretending that you're taking notes as you try to draw up a plan for what to do about Applejack.
>>25834080
>You have to arm wrestle Applejack.
>From what you've heard, she's stronger than a lot of the school's athletes.
>You glance at your arm and flex your muscles.
>Nope, still pretty average.
>You probably can't win by brute force.
>Maybe you can ask someone else for tips?
>Who do you even know that might be good at arm wrestling?
>Flash?

>Bulk Biceps?
>That guy is huge. Everyone's probably too afraid to even try him. What advice is he going to have?
>Big Macintosh?
>He's big, strong... He's a pretty quiet guy, but you've carried a conversation or two with him before.

>Class ends.
>Everyone filters out of the room in a pretty quick fashion, such is the typical reaction to Harshwhinny's lectures.

"Hey, Pinkie Pie."
>Despite your apparantly shit sense of balance, you stand up tall and try to act like her sudden appearance didn't phase you.
>"Don't you 'Hey, Pinkie Pie' me!"
>She's puts on a really serious face, but then doubles over laughing.
>"I'm sorry, Nonny, I couldn't help myself."
>What the fuck.
>You chuckle, sounding just a bit uneasy.
"So, Pinkie... you uh... You know everything that happened, right?"
>"Yep!"
"And you're not mad at me, right? Fluttershy explained my side of the story?"
>"Yepperoonie!"
"... Good?"
>"Yep! I bet you're going to be just fine this week, Nonny."
>She rummages around in that giant puffball that she calls a haircut and hands you a small card.
>It's a written party invitation for Friday night, at her place.
>That's... pretty nice of her, actually.
>You've only been to a Pinkie Pie party one other time, and it was crazy.
"Thanks, Pinkie Pie."
>"Oh, it's no problem at all, Nonny."
>She starts to walk past you.
>"By the way, you're right. You really should get some new shoes. Before tomorrow, even."
"What do you mean by tha-"
>Just like that, she's gone.
Cute story so far.
>>25826916
You have a talent, you have a talent!
>>25834562
i love your work man, keep it up (if you want to of course)
>>25834796
No stopping the train now. I actually have a plan for the story.I've had a plan for the story since the second post, which took me ages to get through because I changed my mind about the direction of the story three times while writing it.If the thread dies and I have nowhere to go, I'll probably take this to Fingerbang.
>>25834836
I believe in you.
>>25834836
Nah, dude.The memories of homecoming anon are still strong.If there is another story with sunny bunny...I'm yours to bump
>>25834796
>>25834993
Nice to see that at least someone likes it.
Also, I doubt I'll match up to Homecoming Anon with this, but I do hope you enjoy the ride anyway.
>>25834562
>Your next class passes by uneventfully.
>The bell rings.
>TO THE CAFETERIA.
>You make your way in and look around for the Big guy himself.
>You spot Sunset and her friends at a table at the far end of the room.
>You sigh and think about just walking over there to explain yourself.
>That's when you see Wondercolts star soccer athlete Rainbow Dash make eye contact with you.
>She drives her fist into her open palm, then makes an "I've got my eye on you" sign.
>[ABORT]
>You immediately turn away and resume your previous mission.
>It's not too long before you see Big Macintosh off at a table to himself.
"Well, here goes nothing."
>You approach his table.
"Hey there, Big Mac. I have something I want to ask you about. Is it okay if I sit here?"
>He looks up at you passively.
>"Eyup."
>A man of few words, for sure.
"Well, Mac... You're a strong guy. I imagine you're probably good at arm wrestling, right?"
>He blinks.
>"Are you challengin' me to an arm wrestling contest, Anon?"
>What.
"What? No, I just... I was hoping you could give me some tips."
>He says nothing.
"So... will you help me?"
>There's a moment where he says nothing.
>"Eyup."
>He puts his elbow down on the table.
>"Show me what you can do, Anon."
>>25826755
>the most prettiest girls in the whole school.
>most prettiest
I hope that was on purpose and you're not actually that dumb
>>25835259
Looks cute, doesn't it? It was actually the result of bad editing, which I will clean up later in the pastebin when this is all over. I changed the line partway through writing it and didn't quite clear up all of the words that I intended to. Chalk it up to me being a scrub at this, it's my first greentext story.
>>25835225
>This isn't what you were expecting.
>Firsthand experience is good for learning though.
>Right?
>After hesitating for a moment, you put your arm on the table and grab Mac's hand.
>He's so much bigger than you that it's really more like he's holding your hand in his.
>No homo.
>"Alright, Anon. Show me what you can do."
"Uh... Okay?"
>You immediately put all of your strength into attempting to defeat Big Macintosh.
>His wrist buckles just a little bit, but his arm doesn't budge. Not even an inch.
>Your eyes widen in disbelief.
>You knew that he was one of the strongest guys around, but you don't even stand a chance.
>You're forced to watch as he tilts your hand back and easily pushes it down onto the table.
>He didn't seem to go all out, and you're thankful that he didn't choose to just break your hand.
>"You could do with some strength trainin', Anon."
"You're telling me."
>"You also ain't usin' your wrist enough."
"What?"
>"If you don't keep your wrist straight, your grip gets weak."
>You have to stop yourself from facepalming.
>This is the most cliché thing you've ever heard about arm wrestling.
>Luckily, you think you get the gist of it from Mac's demonstration.
"Thanks, Big Mac."
>You get up to leave.
>"You'll need more practice than that if you mean to beat mah sister later."
>/What/
>The gears don't have to turn for long before you realize that you were an idiot.
>He's Applejack's older brother.
>At least he was nice enough to help you anyway.
>>25835437
>You bid Big Macintosh farewell and leave to go sit somewhere else on your own before this can get any more awkward for you.
>Taking a seat, you take out your phone to text Flash to see if he has any more ideas.
>You see a notification that someone has sent you a message.
>It's from Pinkie Pie.
>How did she even get your phone number?
>You decide that it's pointless to ask and check it out.
>There's a video attachment...
>...
>It's a video of Rarity's grumpy cat.
>Doing nothing.
>While Pinkie giggles in the background.
>*sigh*
>You're about to put your phone away, when you suddenly get an idea.
>>25835500
>The rest of lunch goes by without incident.
>As does your next class.
>You took Drama as an elective this year.
>It's not about being in the spotlight though.
>Playing up your namesake, you stay out of the way and do more behind-the-scenes and stage building sort of things.
>As you head towards class, you remember something that makes you start to wish you could skip it today.
>You get in and make your way to backstage before you have to deal with the Drama Queen herself.
>"If I do say so myself, these outfits aresmashing.
>>25835958
Oh god, the image size. That's what I get for taking them from a Google image search. Might be time to prowl the threads for more Equestria Girls pics.
>>25835958
i dont get this whole story
so somehow anon is some kind of irredeemable dirtbag because he didnt reciprocate an i love you to some fucking chick he doesnt even know or something
this is really kinda retarded
>>25836057
Oh, for sure. The whole thing is blown way out of proportion, on purpose even. This is outrageous high school drama, so far only about one day after it started.
I don't know how good the pay-off is actually going to be for you guys once I finally get there, but we're still pretty early in and I think that the journey is going to be the interesting part.
>>25835958
>Of course you have class with Rarity too.
>She's not rough-and-tough like some of her friends are, but you generally try to avoid dealing with her directly.
>Praises her own costume work.
>Always blows every little problem out of proportion.
>And of course she won a role this season, so every last thing has to be just perfect.
>The teacher for this class somehow always seems to be missing, but everything keeps running from student effort...
>With Rarity calling a lot of the shots.
>You manage to stay out of her way for a little while, until...
>"Anonymous?"
>What could she POSSIBLY WANT?
>"I want to talk to you about some of the stage designs.
>Oh, thank goodness, she's not going to give you trouble about what happened with Sunset.
>"Really, the window on this piece is set just a little bit too low to really frame..."
>"It would be better if this were a different shade of brown to contrast..."
>And it went on and on.
>She more than doubled your workload just by making you RE-DO things.
>Hammering.
>Painting.
>You're sweating like a dog by the time that the bell rings.
>As you gather up your things, Rarity comes over to you, looking at your hard work.
>"Very well done, darling."
"Thank you, Miss Rarity."
>It's taking every fiber of your being right now not to inject your words with sarcasm.
>"I just wanted to let you know that my opposite number is out for the rest of this week, so I'll need you to brush up on the script for some readings next class."
>The one regret that you have in this class is that everyone had to audition for a role.
>This means that you're an understudy, and now you're going to have to actually practice your lines again for the first time since auditions.
"Yes, Miss Rarity."
>"Very well, Anonymous. I'll be seeing you around."
>After she leaves, you take a deep breath and exhale, shaking off the stress.
>You gather up your things and go to meet your prior engagement.
>>25835225
>at least someone likes it.
Add one more to that list.
>>25835225
I'm on for the ride
>>25836688
I appreciate you saying so, sir. And if I must say, you have excellent taste in waifus.
>>25836519
>You head down the halls of the school, combing your way through the crowd of students heading out to enjoy the rest of their day.
>There's the cafeteria.
>After taking a moment to ready yourself, you throw open the double doors.
>Ahead of you is Applejack, leaning back in a chair with her boots up on a table and her hat over her face.
>At that sound of your entrance, she props up her hat.
>"Well, you had the gumption to show up after all, Anon."
>As you glance around, you can also see that Fluttershy is also here.
>As is Flash, who seems to be pretending like he's currently unaware of his surroundings.
>Headphones on, book in front of his face, the works.
>"So, then..."
>Applejack puts her arm down on the table.
>"Let's have that talk."
>You walk over and have a seat, then lock hands with her.
>She gives you a fierce stare as those green eyes ignite like flames.
>This is NOT the kind of hand holding you wanted to do with a pretty girl.
>"Begin on 3, Anon."
>"One..."
>"Two..."
>"Three!"
>>25836829
>Almost immediately, it takes all of your strength just to stop her from instantly taking you down.
>"You hurt Sunset's feelings, Anon!"
>You can hear the effort in her voice as she tries to finish you off.
"Applejack, I promise you that I didn't mean to!"
>"Go on then! Tell me for yourself what happened."
>If it keeps up like this for much longer, you're going to lose.
"I was so surprised when she asked me out that I was just stunned! I didn't mean to hurt anyone's feelings!"
>You adjust your grip, raising it higher up her hand as you lean into the table.
>You almost can't believe it as you manage to slowly make some progress back towards the starting point.
>You straighten your wrist out, but your progress stalls as Applejack seems to put the rest of her power into it.
>"And what about Sunset? Are you going to apologize to her? Do you even really like her back, Anon?"
"I will apologize to her... But the rest..."
>This is your one chance.
>You draw your elbow in closer to hers and pull her hand at an angle towards your side of the table with everything that you've got.
>>25826550
It had the opposite effect draining all hope with only despair left
>>25833696
Mmm.
>all you did was not say anything
>unrealistic reactions
>completely unreasonable character actions
>treating it like you insulted Sunset for a solid 40 seconds while saying no
>unnecessary and contrived hoops and hurdles
This is reading like the plot to a generic Japanese dating sim.
>>25837023
I'm guessing that you were home-schooled.
>>25836927
>You pull Applejack's wrist back, causing her grip to weaken on yours.
"That's between Sunset and I."
>The sound of her arm slamming onto the table is audible through the large, almost empty room.
>There's a moment of stunned silence afterward.
>You look around nervously.
>Fluttershy's eyes are wide.
>Flash drops his prop book.
>Then your eyes settle on Applejack.
>You promptly let go of her hand.
>Then you realize how much you're shaking.
>Applejack straightens herself out and stands up.
>She leans over the table and offers you a hand.
>"I can tell from that match, Anon... You were tellin' the honest truth."
>She smiles.
>"It took guts for you to stand up to me, and you put in a real effort like I never expected!
>>25837023
You're definitely entitled to your opinion, but we sure are only around 1/3 of the way through the planned story. The misunderstandings are clearing up pretty rapidly, and there's something going on here that I'm not sure any of you have caught onto yet.
>>25837096
Oh fuck the book...
>>25837087
>You shake Applejack's hand and notice yourself smile for the first time since you walked into the room.
>In fact, it seems that everyone here is happy with the result.
>"Really though, Anon. I never expected you to be strong enough to actually beat me."
>Your smile breaks out into a grin.
"Oh, I'm not stronger than you, Applejack."
>"Wha-"
>"I beat you by applying the right kind of leverage to weaken your grip."
>You turn away from her.
>If you had sunglasses, you would put them on.
"I learned how to do it bywatching videos on arm wrestling during lunch today."
>She doesn't seem to have an answer to this.
"Come along, Flash. I need to go shoe shopping."
>Flash is trying hard to hold in his laughter as you exit with him in tow.
>Before you make it out the door, you even hear Applejack start to chuckle.
END OF TUESDAY.
>>25837131
I talk too much sometimes. Ah, well.
>>25837023
And what kind of dating sims are you referring to here, because I'm not seeing the connection.
Misunderstandings and social strifes are common themes in stories of all kinds. I don't really get why you're so nettled.
Yes, the beginning is really out there and the immediate aftermath seems extreme, but is that really so out of place in a setting where the main characters are all teenagers? Did you even read Romeo and Juliet?
>>25837225
Awwwww yes this story is really starting to develop. I cant wait to see the end anon.
>>25837225
All about the journey instead of the destination

Probably no more tonight. I have a lot of time this week though right up until the holidays, so I might be able to get this done before that, actually.
As always, feedback is appreciated. As long as there's a thread up when I'm ready to start posting, I will be there. If there's no thread, then you'll find me posting this in Fingerbang.
>>25826977
>Anon has a crush on a lesbian Shimmer.
WHERE IS THE GREEN?!
>>25836688
>>25836829
Add another to that list
It's pretty good
>>25837353
Welcome aboard.
>mfw I see the image that you posted
>>25837319
Definitely passing out.
More green to come for sure.
>>25837319
Decent so far, writefriend.
>>25837319
I Rike it
please continue
Go on
>>25837042
What high school did you go to and what kind of shitty people did you associate with?
>>25837096
Enjoying the writing, and I want more, but >>25837023 hit the nail right on the head. If this is what you were going for, then kudos. You did it perfectly.
Alright. I think I have this next day all figured out.
I'm gonna go out and run an errand. When I get back, we start Wednesday.
>>25841327
Can't wait
>>25825389
let'shold hands
>>25841928
DELETE THIS POST ! STAR WARS SPOILERS AHEAD !!!
>>25837320
Then Adagio and Sunset feel bad for Anon so they decide to give him a "show he will never forget." Maybe if Anon is a good boy he could join in.
>>25842504
thanks for the heads up
>>25841928
kill yourself
>>25842504
>pic related
>>25841928
Rude, much? If you're going to use spoiler tags on this board, at least make it related to the thread or the board content instead of dropping Star Wars on people.
Also: Greentext inbound.
>>25837190
>Wake up.
>Grab things.
>Quick breakfast this time.
>Feeling pretty good about things today.
>Head for school.
>You happen to meet up with Flash on the walk over.
>"Well, well. Someone's looking confident today."
"After all of the crap that I've gone through over the last couple of days, I think I'm feeling good."
>"Good for you, man."
>You talk to chat with Flash for a bit about music during your trip.
>Eventually you reach Canterlot High and step inside.
"Look, I understand why you like Rush. Nobody will disagree with it. But why is Xanadu your favorite track of theirs?"
>"You just don't get the artistic value of it, Anon."
>As you're about to give your rebuttal as to why that argument is bullshit, Fluttershy comes up.
"Good morning, Anonymous."
>Damnit, she's so cute.
"Hey there, Fluttershy. What's up?"
>"It's nothing really. I was just wondering what you thought of the English assignment that we have due for today."
>You were in such a hurry to leave the class on Monday that you forgot to write it down.
"Oh... Well... What was it again?"
>"Anon, you really shouldn't put off your homework like that."
"Yeah, I know..."
>Fluttershy writes down the pages that you were supposed to read for today.
>Just about then, you hear a voice call your name.
>>25843006
Yiss.
>>25843006
>Rainbow Dash approaches you.
>"I heard about your little 'competition' with Applejack yesterday."
"Yes. And?"
>"You may be good in her book, but you haven't proven yourself to me yet."
>Fluttershy speaks up.
>"Rainbow Dash, I'm surprised at you. Haven't we given Anonymous enough trouble this week?"
>Another voice pipes up behind Rainbow Dash.
>"Yeah, Rainbow. Anon's a decent feller."
>You never would have thought before this week that anyone from the Main Six would really care about what happens to you.
>Now Fluttershy AND Applejack have come to your defense.
>You put your hands out to your sides.
"It's fine, you guys. Really."
>They seem a bit surprised to hear this response.
>The only person that isn't phased by this is Rainbow.
"What's it going to be, Rainbow Dash?"
>"Half an hour after school lets out. Meet me out at the soccer field. And you better not chicken out."
"Don't worry. I won't."
>She turns and leaves without saying another thing.
>Everyone else is looking at you like you're out of your mind.
>>25825389
I love you too bancon hair.
>>25825389
If you say "Chicken Butt" one more time i'm gonna rape you
>>25843159

Ho boy, he's going to lose the race?I need the next part

Drop dead and rot, faget.
Got pulled away for a minute there. More coming shortly.
>>25843006
>Rush
fuckin dropped
>>25844360
Hahaha, wow, really?
As good as Rush is, I don't even listen to all that much of it. I just picked a band so they could banter about it.
>>25843159guitar battle
>>25843159
>Flash is the first to speak up.
>"Anon, you know she's the star of the soccer team, right?"
"Is she?"
>Fluttershy looks worried for you, because you seem to be unprepared for everything today.
>Applejack starts to lay on the skepticism.
>"You know that this isn't like yesterday, right? You can't just learn to get good at a sport in less than a day."
"Sure."
>They all look less sure.
"Look, I'm telling you guys, I'll be fine."
>You turn towards the hall that leads to your next class and start walking.
"Really. You don't have to worry about me today. I've got this."
>At that moment, you see Pinkie Pie walking by.
>She turns and calls out to you, without stopping.
>"Nonny, I told you that you should get some new shoes!"
>What is she talking abou-
>It's happening again.
>You feel the world fall out from under you.
>IS THIS GOING TO HAPPEN EVERY DAY?
>Just before you faceplant, you come to a realization.
>You forgot your new shoes at home.
>You're wearing the old, shitty ones.
>>25844502
I will admit to being a musicfag, but I'm not going to write any guitar battlesinto THIS story.

Awesome moar please
He dun goofed.
>>25844520
>Nothing saves your ass this time.
>You eat shit.
>You can hear your comrades behind you.
>A sharp breath in.
>An "oooh..."
>An "eep"
>Before any of them can ask if you're okay, you stick out your hand and gives them a thumbs up before peeling yourself off the floor and dusting yourself off.
>You hear a laugh and a groan from behind you as you make your way to your first class.
>The rest of your morning passes without anything else going wrong.
>Well, almost.
>The power flickered while you were typing a paper and you lost half of it.
>You came pretty close to having that solution blow up in your face during chemistry.
>But you made it to lunch just fine.
>You get your tray filled up and have a seat with Flash.
>After a little while, you hear your phone go off.
>Looks like you've got a text.
>>25844729
yesssssssssssss
>>25844729
>You don't recognize the number, but you check it anyway.
>"I hope you don't mind, but I got your number from Pinkie Pie."
>Okay, so that explains that much.
>It still doesn't explain how PINKIE has your number, but you know it's better not to ask.
>"I'm really sorry about all of this. Would you be willing to meet with me before school tomorrow so we can talk about it?"
>It's from Sunset Shimmer.
>She wants to clear all of this up.
>Maybe today is as good as you thought it would be after all.
>As the bell rings for classes to resume, you send her a text back saying that you will.
>Your next class period passes uneventfully.
>That leads you up to... English again.
>"Today I'd like you to fill out these worksheets on the reading."
>That can't be good.
>You only skimmed the reading after Fluttershy gave you the page numbers-
>"I will allow you to partner up for this.
>The room is instantly a massive shift of people trying to sit by their best friends so that they can chat.
>After the room settles, you're sitting next to Fluttershy.
>She didn't notice you for a moment and nearly jumps out of her seat.
"So... partners?"
>>25844880
Go on...
>>25840637
Hell, I'm out of school in the workforce for longer than I care to admit. Sounds like the bullshit I used to put up with at my last job.
>>25844880
>"O-okay. Sure, Anon."
>You both work on the worksheet packet.
>But mostly Fluttershy.
>You help out where you can, but it requires a lot of reading the text thoroughly for the first time.
>It's going well, but it seems like there's something else on her mind.
"Fluttershy?"
>"Yes, Anonymous?"
"Are you still worried about how I'm going to deal with Rainbow Dash later?"
>"N-no, of course not..."
>That doesn't sound convincing.
"Really? Because you sound nervous."
>"Well.. maybe a little bit. Rainbow Dash is a really good athlete, and I just don't want you to feel bad if you can't win."
"It's really okay, Fluttershy. Thank you for being concerned about me, but I promise you that I know what I'm getting myself into. So don't worry about it anymore, okay?"
>"O-okay. If you say so."
>She gives you a small smile after you reassure her.
>You two wrap up the assignment and write your name on it.
>She has beautiful, cursive handwriting.
>Damnit, everything about her is adorable.
>The bell rings and you split off from Fluttershy to go wait for your challenge against Rainbow Dash.
There are a few weird music references scattered around. Anybody happen to catch those?
Should be able to easily get through the Wednesday chapter today. Maybe even the Thursday one.
>>25845149
Nothing here. Not good with musical references...wish I were... I've been simply sitting with anger recently, staying away. May I ask you to help?
>>25844520
>Pony known for her speed and races
>human counterpart plays soccer.
I really dont know why she isnt a track or cross country runner
Okay, folks. I've got some black tea and a head full of baked and half-baked ideas.
Let's do this.
>>25845451
Because muh sports.
>>25845271
There's a really crappily ponified name of an artist in the Monday section, and the Tuesday section starts off by referencing Beatles lyrics.
>>25845823
I see. Interesting...add more references. Don't need to sell the world for it, though. keep hiding them, and do a better job. Not the case of what I did on my previous post
>>25845114
>It's almost time.
>You're ready.
>You KNOW that you're ready.
>You throw open the door and step out onto the field.
>"Looks like you didn't chicken out after all."
>Rainbow Dash is standing at midfield with a soccer ball trapped under her foot.
>Scanning the field, you can see Fluttershy and Applejack are both sitting in the stands to watch this.
>No Flash this time though.
>Your eyes settle on Dash again.
"Nope."
>"That's fine with me. I'll beat you anyway."
>She kicks up the ball and catches it.
>"First to score ten goals wins.
>You nod and take your position on one side of the line.
>Dash places the ball.
>Fluttershy lines up at the center from off-field.
>"Ready?"
>There's a long hesitation before she finally blurts out:
>"Go!"
>>25845953
>Before you can even move, the ball shoots past you with Rainbow Dash in hot pursuit.
>You try to maneuver around her to get it back, but she is FAST.
>She shoots...
>She scores.
>The game just started she's already ahead of you by a point.
>She turns to look at you and the look on her face is SO SMUG.
>"You sure you don't wanna just give up now?"
>You put on your game face.
"Never."
>You reset for the next one...
>Ready to go this time, you manage to get the first kick in and start dribbling the ball down the field.
>She hasn't caught up to you after a couple of seconds, and this is starting to feel good.

>>25846095
>You grin.
"Flash, you son of a bitch! You broke into my house for a pair of shoes?"
>"Just lookin' out for you, man!"
>You look to Rainbow Dash and call a time out.
>You kneel down and start untying the shoes that have been causing a lot of shit the past few days.
>"What difference is a pair of shoes going to make? I only need one more point to win!"
>You block her out.

That sure would be a sudden change of pace, wouldn't it?
>>25846261
Ho boy, the tension...
>>25846325
Kek
>>25846261
>Rainbow Dash is surprised this time when you actually slip past her with the ball.
>You can feel the fire within.
>Dash is quickly catching up to you.
>Pushing yourself, you can see that you're approaching the goal.
>You're NOT going to slip this time.
>She's outpacing you.
>This is all you.
>She's ahead of you now, but you see an opening.
>You shoot!
>Everything happens in slow motion.
>Your foot makes contact with the ball.
>It streaks through the air.
>Rainbow Dash whips around and throws a kick.
>It connects with the ball.
>Everything suddenly speeds up again as a black and white shape blurs over your head.
>You turn around to pursue it.
>It looks like a rainbow just shoots right past your face.
>She kicks the ball...
>And it's over.
For the record, that wasn't influenced by this
>>25846325
post.
And that's sure as hell not where the story ends.
>>25846515
>Rainbow Dash scores her tenth goal.
>Flash stops playing instantly.
>Everyone in the stands generally just looks down.
>Rainbow Dash immediately starts gloating.
>"AW, YEAH! Who's awesome? I'm awesome!"
>She turns to you.
>"So, what do you have to say NOW, Anon?"
>You stand your ground.
"Re-match. Right here. Right now."
>"Wha? I just THRASHED you ten to nothing and you want to go again?"
"That's right."
>There's a moment where she doesn't know how to respond.
>"F-Fine then. Have it your way. But don't start crying if you lose again!"
>>25846676
>You won't go out like this.
>You refuse to go out like this.
>The game starts again.
>You keep putting your all into it.
>Rainbow Dash keeps walking all over you.
>It's a total blow-out.
>Again.
"Again."
>"Ugh, are you kidding?"
>You play her again.
>You get stomped again.
>You're both starting to get tired, you more than her.
"Again."
>>25846798
>"What is your DEAL Anon? It doesn't matter how many times we do this, you're not going to win!"
>You look at her with a fierce look in your eyes.
"Because I won't back down. Not anymore."
>She looks surprised to hear this.
>You think back to your encounter with Sunset on Monday.
"I already made the mistake of getting in my own way, and I'm sure as hell not going to let anyone, even you, stop me either."
>There's a long silence as you stare her down.
>The air is still, no one says a thing.
>Rainbow Dash walks over to you...
>"You just stood up for what you believe in. You have guts dude. A lot of guts."
>She extends a hand to you with a smile.
>"You know... you're alright by me, Anon."
>>25847061
>You shake Rainbow's hand, which quickly turns into a fist bump that you almost don't manage to reciprocate.
>Fluttershy, Applejack, and Flash are cheering from the stands.
>You smile.
"Thanks Rainbow Dash. You're probably not so bad either."
>She rolls her eyes.
>"Yeah, well, I AM pretty awesome. But you're cooler than I thought you were. Good luck working things out with Sunset."
>You nod to Rainbow Dash before departing from the field.
>You spend the walk home talking to Flash, laughing about the whole thing as he recalls just how bad you got wrecked.
>When you get home, you go straight to your room and lie down on the bed.
>You're exhausted from going three rounds with Rainbow Dash.
>But that's not surprising.>Not giving up had been your plan all along.
>And tomorrow morning, you're going to meet with Sunset Shimmer and settle this whole mess.
END OF WEDNESDAY.
>>25847236
It's gonna happen
I actually got through that section slower than I thought I would.
The pastebin for the Wednesday section is up now, by the way.
http://pastebin.com/FAbYER5z
I might start the Thursday part here in just a little bit.
As always, feedback is always appreciated!
>>25847331
No, really though. Feedback on that last section would be really appreciated. I feel like compared the previous day's challenge, the tone shift was a lot stronger.
>>25847411
Try and build more tension leading up to things.
It feels like you're going
>Declare thing
>Stuff in-between thing that implies thing

Good story though.

>Hide the scars to fade away the shake-up (hide the scars to fade away the...)
>Why'd you leave the keys upon the table?
>Here you go create another fable
>>25847931
Not gonna lie. I actually thought about it.
Just didn't feel right.
>>25847956
Shoulda done it. Every time there was a 'Wake up', I was expecting it.
This next part's not going to come as easily. Ironically, Sunset's active role in the story was the last thing that I figured out.
Green coming shortly.
>>25847236
>You wake up to an alarm.
>Your arm sweeps over and knocks it off of your nightstand, causing the clock to conveniently turn off when it impacts the floor.
>Getting up a little bit earlier than normal today was important.
>You get ready for your day in an orderly fashion.
>Clothes on.
>Breakfast eaten.
>Bitchin' new kicks laced up.
>Out the door.
>When you arrive at Canterlot High, the amount of people hanging around this early is a lot smaller than you're used to.
>You walk up the steps to the front door, take a deep breath, and go inside.
>It's like a ghost town.
>It looks like the teachers are in their rooms, but there aren't any students in the halls.
>No chatter, no clanking of lockers
>You walk, nothing to keep you company but your thoughts.
>>25848248
>This week has been a lot of things.
>Stressful.
>Unreal.
>Amazing.
>Satisfying.
>And it all happened because when an opportunity presented itself to you, you said nothing.
>You said nothing and it threw your whole world for a loop.
>All over a girl.
>A beautiful girl with crimson and golden hair.
>A girl who is intelligent and kind.
>This all happened because that girl chose to open her heart up to you and you didn't know how to respond.
>You can't help but chuckle to yourself.
>If you'd said something, anything at all, none of it would have happened.
>But then where would you be?
>If you could go back and change it, would you have?
>Maybe on Monday, you would have.
>But now...
>You're not so sure.

Your vigilance keeping the thread alive is appreciated. Green is being cooked up as we speak.
>>25851920
Well, if you were to map out the events so far, you could probably make an educated guess by referring to Anon's schedule.
Bump?
>>25848394
>And now you're here.
>It's the corner of the school where you met Sunset when all of this began.
>It doesn't take long for you to find her.
>She's leaning against the lockers, those cyan eyes lost in thought.
>Those eyes look up as she notices your approach.
>A small smile grows on her face.
>"Hey there, Anon."
"Good morning, Sunset."
>"Thanks for agreeing to meet me."
"I wanted to. I've been wanting to talk to you since Monday."
>"Please, let me go first. I have a lot that I need to get off my chest."
>You nod and listen as Sunset Shimmer tells you how this all of this started.
>>25852839
Here we go
>>25852839
Please don't let someone else take her
>>25852839
>"I guess I don't need to ask you if you remember the Fall Formal."
>You do remember it. As does anyone who has been at the school since last year.
>Sunset used to be "popular," but disliked by quite a few people.
>You don't fully understand all of what happened at the Fall Formal, but apparantly it was magic.
>Literally magic.
>She turned into some kind of demon.
>Even more, she started turning the other students into zombies.
>Well, they were LIKE zombies, anyway.
>Something happened where the other girls that make up the Main Six teamed up with that bookish girl that transfered in from nowhere.
>They put a stop to it, leaving Sunset just a vulnerable girl with a lot of people understandably angry with her.
">You can imagine that I didn't have a lot of friends after that. I was lucky to have anyone forgive me at all."
>It was true. Applejack, Fluttershy, Rainbow Dash, Rarity, and Pinkie Pie all became her friends afterwards.
>They gave her a new chance.
>"But even with new friends, it wasn't easy for me after that."
>She looks down.
>"Everyone else wasn't so forgiving. Wherever I went, whatever I did, no one trusted me. They said a lot of hurtful things to my face and behind my back... Except for one person."
>She looks up and her eyes meet yours.
>>25852937
>"You, Anonymous. We had class together, and though we really didn't talk that much, you were never rude to me."
>Hearing this surprises you.
>You hardly talked to her at all, but it was true that you never gave her trouble for what she did.
>You weren't the kind of person who would hang on to the bad things in life, and you certainly weren't going to kick someone else when they were down.
>"To a lot of people, you don't really stand out. You tend to be pretty quiet for the most part, but I saw that you're also hard-working and kind."
>There's a moment of silence as she thinks about where to go from here.
>"Eventually, more people became willing to trust me. I made a few more friends, but it wasn't until the Battle of the Bands that most of the school was willing to forgive what I'd done."
>That was a weird week.
>What's the deal with trouble always starting up after students transfer in, anyway?
>After all of that happened, Sunset became popular again, but this time because she was well-liked.
>"But I didn't forget, Anon. I... I grew feelings for you that I didn't know how to express."
>She sighs.
>"Maybe I was just afraid that you would reject me. I wasn't in a good place in my life for a while there."
>She allows herself just the slightest hint of a smile, her emotional baggage starting to lighten up.
>"But recently things have been good. I started having thoughts about you again, and I felt confident enough to tell you how I really felt."
>Her eyes gaze deeply into yours.
>"So I did. But when you didn't say anything, I was afraid that you would reject me for what I did after all. I just couldn't handle that fear that my past might actually get in the way of my life again."
>"And I ran."
>>25853073
yesssss thank u
>>25853073
>You can hear the sadness and regret in her voice.
>"I'd been so excited before meeting with you that I told my friends about it. When they saw me come back in tears, they must have assumed that you hurt me.
>There it was.
>The catalyst that had brought you so much strife this week.
>Your staredown from Fluttershy.
>The arm wrestling match with Applejack.
>Destruction at the hands of Rainbow Dash's soccer skills.
>"I never meant to cause you so much trouble, Anon. I hope that you can forgive me."
>Her eyes turn to the floor again.
>"And I'd understand if you never want to talk to me again.

MOAR. FEED MORE FEELS

Grab her, tell her sorry you didn't do this sooner, and say you don't want to let go of her. Oh and don't forget to take her to prom.
>>25853228
>>25853228
>There it all is.
>Now, you have a choice to make.
>You weren't ready for it last time, you had a lot dropped on you to think about.
>But this time, you've already done all of the thinking that you need.
>You walk up to Sunset.
>You use your hand to lift up her chin and look her right in the eyes.
"Sunset, I've had a lot of time to think since Monday."
>She's staring back at you, her expression unsure.
"I like you Sunset. I really do."
>Her eyes widen in disbelief.
"If you'll have me, I'd love to go out with you."
>The corners of her eyes are starting to water up.
>She throws her arms around you.
>"Of course, Anon!"
>You wrap your arms around her and share an intimate moment.
>You've never hugged a girl before.
>It's warm, and you get a face full of her beautiful hair.
>After what feels like several minutes, you let go of each other.
"So... uh..."
>"Yes, Anon?"
>Her smile is so heartwarming.
>You almost have a heart attack from cuteness overload.
"Do you want to maybe do something after school?"
>She shuffles her feet a bit, you can hear her boots sliding on the tiled floor.
>"I'm sorry, Anon. I'm busy after school today... Will you be at Pinkie's party tomorrow?"
"Of course, Sunset. I'll meet you there?"
>"Sure. Don't be a stranger until tomorrow though, okay? You have my number now, after all."
>You give her a big smile.
"Of course."
>She gives you a wink and takes her leave.
>You can hear the school coming alive.
>The day's just starting, but it feels like your whole week has turned around.
Gonna take a little break, but I already know how the rest of the day plays out.
Also, I never thought I would get away with posting three pictures of sad Sunset in a row without getting lynched.

>Oh and don't forget to take her to prom.
What do you think this is, Homecoming Anon?It's not. I did really enjoy that story, though.

>Step out into the hall after class.
>Turn the corner.
>Your vision goes pink.
>You stumble, but you don't fall over.
>Fuck that.
>After a moment of feeling good for yourself about not being on the floor again, you realize at Pinkie Pie is RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOU.
>But... you're pretty sure you left the classroom ahead of her.
"Pinkie Pie?"
>"Hi, Nonny! Did you and Sunset talk things out?"
"Yes, actually."
>You put on a big smile.
"Things turned out great."
>She gets excited.
>"Oh, that's so good to hear! You're still coming to the party on Friday right? It's gonna be amazing!"
>You chuckle.
"Yeah, Pinkie. I'll be there."
>"Great! I'll see you later, Nonny!"
>She skips off into the hallway traffic.
>You can see that big, poofy hair of hers bob up over everyone else's heads as she gets further and further away from you.

>Wait, did your ring tone actually get MORE BLAND when you weren't looking?
>You have a text from... Rarity.
>[Greetings, Anonymous. Our instructor stumbled through the staging area yesterday and knocked over a few things. Nothing seems to be damaged, but would you be a dear and check it for yourself if you have a minute to spare?]
>You roll your eyes.
>Well, something was bound to happen today, even if none of Sunset's friends are out to get you anymore.
>Who needs the whole lunch period anyway?
>Did you even have lunch half of the days this week?
>You head to the stage.
>Of course there's no one here.
>Rarity just dropped a job on you on your own time and she isn't even here.
>You climb up onto the stage and find a few things out of their normal place, with a little note in Rarity's overly-curly cursive handwriting telling you that these are the things.
>Taking a look, everything does seem to be fine...
>Except for one piece that seems to be missing a nail.
>You quickly grab a hammer and scan the floor for the loose nail so no one will step on it by mistake.
>After a few minutes, your work is done.
>As you return to the toolbox, you notice that there are some papers scattered all over the floor.
>Picking them up, they appear to be a bunch of Rarity's design notes.
>You straighten them out into a neat pile and set them down by her work station.
>Before you leave, you stop and think for a moment.
>You have an idea.
>>25834562
>"You really should get some new shoes. Before tomorrow, even."
11/10 best foreshadowing ever in a greentext

I thought henuked the commonwealth.
>>25855856
I liked writing that in. It's a ridiculous running gag. I don't even know why I keep putting it in, but the opportunities to do so keep coming up.
I especially liked it becauseeven though it comes up again, this thing that is a joke ends up not being important enough to effect the plot.

>The rest of your day before Drama class sweeps by without incident.
>Here it comes.
>You have to "act" today to fill in for a missing player.
>Ugh.
>You take a seat with everyone else while Rarity stands up on stage and acts a coordinator.
>She calls out a scene and those players come up to the stage to do a reading.
>She also then calls out the next scene so that everyone reading that one can get ready.
>The first group of players come up to the stage and begin.
>Given that most of the people here double as crew, there's actually some pretty good acting.
>It's too bad that it's just a second-rate play.
>Why on earth would anyone think it would be a good idea to put on a fantasy story about a bunch of high school teenagers, anyway?
>After the first group finishes up, the second group comes up to the stage.
>Rarity steps up to the edge of the stage to call the next one.
>"I'll need Anonymous up here to understudy for Act 1, Scene 8."
>You throw up your hands in outrage.
>That's the scene where Rarity's character and another one try to seduce one another.

>The next scene goes by as you gloss over the part of the script that you're about to do with Rarity.
>"Come up here, Anonymous. This will be the last one for today, everyone can return to their projects afterward."
>You climb up onto the stage and take a position off to one side.
>Rarity looks to you to make sure that you're ready.
>You let out a deep sigh and then nod to her.
>She walks offstage, then back on.
>This is how the scene starts, she comes into the room.
>"THERE you are, darling. You didn't think that you could hide from me, did you?
>She's got her flirty face on.
>Wait, is she not holding a script?
>After a moment, you realize that you're just standing there not saying your lines.
"Darling? Coming on a bit strongly, aren't you?"
>She's sauntering over to you, nice and slow.
>You sometimes forget this because you're usually trying to avoid her as much as possible, but it's true:
>She's gorgeous.
>"But of course. Why shouldn't I when I'm talking to such a big, strong, man?"
>She smirks and slowly strokes your face with the side of her hand before turning away from you.
>"And besides... are you sure that you don't like it?"
>She's laying it on so thick.
>Is she testing you?
anyone know what happened to Liquid Plasma's whole story about anon? i think one of the stories was "High School Reunion" and "Lustful Temptations"
>>25856985
>"After all, a lot of guys would *kill* for a girl like me."
>She gives you a look that screams "come hither."
>But you don't lock up.
>You don't show your anger.
>You are Anonymous, King of the Poker Face.
>And you're going to show her what real acting is.
>You throw down your script.
"Really? Because you seem to be pretty eager to have my attention yourself."
>Rarity blinks in surprise as you step towards her.
"Perhaps it's not just me that you're interested in, but the pull that I have around here?"
>She regains her composure.
>"I don't know whatever it is that you mean by that, darling."
"Oh, I think you do."
>You both step closer to each other
>"And if I were, you understand how well I can also sway things my way."
>She places an arm around your shoulder and gets up close to your face.
"I see, then..."
>You clasp her hand in yours and step away from her.
>You're now standing apart from one another, but connected by your linked arms.
"In that case, "darling..."
>You pull her in, holding her close and dipping her backwards, supporting her with your other arm.
>She looks up at you in surprise as your face contorts into a devilish grin.
"Perhaps we can have something a little bit more... mutual."
>Your face approaches hers and her eyes go wide.
>You can feel her becoming uneasy in your grasp. She almost tries to push you off of her.
>You lean in...

aw shit dis gon be gud
>>25857296
I like this. I want one green that Anon hooks up with character besides Sunset or Rainbow
>>25857333
You mean for this story or in general? There should be plenty of stories like that
>>25857368
In general. Don't take this the wrong way I enjoy all green but it's nice to see some variety.
>>25857296
>Her eyes close.
>You lean in and whisper in her ear.
"Scene."
>You prop her up again and she nearly falls over.
>She's extremely flustered.
>You hear a some people talking from the audience.
>"The school will never let us use that scene as is."
>There are a couple of people with pens scratching out lines and re-writing some changes on their copies of the script.
>Rarity finally regains her composure and clears her throat.
>"That's a wrap everyone... Please return to your work."
>The script kids stay where they are and work on editing.
>You go back to building and maintenance.
>Rarity goes to work on her costumes.
>"My word... who did this?"
>Her work table has all of her tools set out neatly, with the materials that she needs for her planned costumes immediately on hand.
>You pause from driving screws into a plank to give her a hand signal.
"You're welcome, "Miss" Rarity."
>>25857436
I get ya.. Even if many aren't being made now, there are plenty of completed stories I haven't even read yet, so I'd look into those.
>>25853549
this is making my lazy afternoon comfy
>>25856770
this fits surprisingly well
>>25857333
Unfortunately for you, this is a Sunset story.
Fortunately for you, I have a Fluttershy-focused story that I can recommend.
http://pastebin.com/FJezXs9N
Also, nice trips.
>>25857504
And I am going to stick around because I like the story.
damnit, now i want to be a writefag and make something with either FS, RRR or TW
what do you anons say? should i do it with this prompt but changing the characters or start from scratch?
>>25857466
This is a really unique green. It's not explosively enjoyable or groundbreaking, but it's so... consistently entertaining. I really wish I had the stuff to write like this. All I can do is the occasional one-shot.
>>25857561
That's totally up to you, man. I've never done any writefagging before this, I just saw the prompt and was like "You know, I've thought about doing greentext before. I'll just start writing and see where it goes."
>>25857569
I really appreciate you saying so. I don't know how to feel about some of the things that I write in and how you guys might react to it. Planning the story wasn't hard once I knew what I wanted to do, but the execution is like a big unknown.
So far, Thursday has been the hardest day to write for. I don't think that's going to be the case by the end of it.

>Rarity says nothing and returns to her work.
>In fact, she doesn't say anything for the rest of the class period.
>When the bell finally rings, you two are the last ones remaining.
>She walks over to you.
>"Anonymous. Could I have a word with you?"
>She's not using any of her usual flare.
>You don't think you've ever seen her so casual before.
"Sure. What can I do for you, Rarity?"
>"I just wanted to say that I'm was very surprised by your performance earlier. I never knew you could act like that."
>You don't say anything in reply, instead finishing putting away your tools.
>"It's just that... I don't see how anyone as talented as you could possibly lose an audition.
>You look at Rarity.
"It's really a lot more simple than you think."
>"She looks as you, confused.
"I don't like being in the spotlight. I'd really prefer to be backstage helping everything else move along."
>It's like she expects there to be more than that.
>But after she realizes that there isn't, she decides to speak up again.
>"I see. Well, then. I just have one thing that I want to say."
>You look at her.
"Yes?
>"Thank you, Anonymous. For everything that you do around here."
>That's a genuine smile.
>"You're a real gentleman after all, you know. If it weren't for Sunset, I think I'd have to snatch you right up."
>She picks up her purse and puts on a scarf that you know she's only wearing because it matches the rest of her ensemble.
>"Have a good rest of your day, Anonymous."

>On your way out of the school, you run into Flash Sentry.
>"Hey, Anon! You didn't show up to lunch again today. So, how'd it go this morning?"
"Let me tell you..."
>You fill in Flash on how your talk with Sunset went this morning.
>When you tell him that you'll be hanging out with her at Pinkie's party tomorrow, he bumps fists with you.
>When you get home, you go straight to your room as usual.
>After you put a dent in your homework, you take out your phone and send Sunset a text.
END OF THURSDAY.

That's another day down. Will probably start up the Friday part before I go to bed tonight.
In other news, I think we've approached the bump limit. I can hardly believe it.
Pastebin for the Thursday section is now up:

Also, FUN FACT: I did this edit in MSPaint myself while yesterday in preparation for that one stupid joke.

Fucking saved.
>>25857844
This one too.
>>25857933
Pffft. Apparantly I don't know what the bump limit is for this board. We have a little ways to go, I guess.
A concern for tomorrow, maybe.
>>25857943
I gotta go, so I'm finishing this story tomorrow. Well, actually later today considering the time here (12:20 am).
You've earned yourself a fan, good sir.
