She thinks > she makes her way slowly towards the managers office, avoiding most of the ponies there, though most didnt reconize her without her glasses >'anon was right, wearing those glasses really helps with fans' she makes a mental note to thank anon later   > walking up to the manager office she opens the door to see a smiling manager >"my favorit Dj, are yoy ready for tonight?" He says > vinyl respawns with a yawn >"this is your final night before a break so blow the roof off this place" > vinyl yawns again but nodds >"now..." the manager continues on as vinyl tries to stay awake   > now out of the office, vinyl makes her way tawords her sound booth >she is stopped however, when i mares voice is heared. > "hey you there!" She calls > vinyl turns towards a group of ponies sitting at a table. The one who called her was looking at her while the rest seem to be out of it > "you seem tired, need a pick-me-up?" The mare asks >"You have another energy drink on you?" Vinyl asks hopfully >The mare looks at vinyle as if shes joking "uh no... i mean this kind of pick-me-up" she says holding a pink pill to vinyl >Vinyl looks at it for a second before taking it with her magic "what is it?" > the mare rolls her eyes"Just do it, or are you a chicken?" >Vinyl gives the mare an angry look before mumbling "im not a chicken..." and taking the pill. >After the world seemed to get very colourfull and sparkly. And vinyl became very happy. >"Whoa, what is this?" She says waving her hoof in front of her. >The mare smiled and began to speak but vinyl couldnt understand her. >Vinyl just shrugged and made her way towards thw stage to begin her music. That is all vinyl remembers from that night   The next day, vinyl finds herself waking up in your room. She looks around for a minute before you open the door with food on a plat. "Party to hard lasst night?" You joke as you place her meal on the bed > vinyl hesitates before answering "y...yah way too much, camt remeber some of the night haha..." she says > you look at her for a moment "vinyl... what did you do?" > "what are you my dad? I had a few too many and passed out, no biggy" > you sigh before dropping the subject and walking out of the room   > for the first few days of vinyls vacation all she did was rest, it was understandable because of how late she always stays up. > after that though she would leave and not come back back to the bar till it was almost morning, with bloodshot eyes and a shaking body. > when she got back she just went up to your room and pass out for a few hours. > about two weeks of this go by and its almost time for her to go back to work. > shots passes you a drink as you light up a cigaret "so where is vinyl" > you take a drag of your smoke before answering "passed out again, really i wonder what the hell shes doing at night to make her like that" > shot laughts as he cleans a cup with his hooves "Whats so funny?" >"you sound like her lover" shots jokes "Funny... i just worried about her you know?" > "you worrie to much anon. Now how about a game of bits?" > you smile and slam the rest of your drink "your so fucking on" > as you say this, vinyl comes down the stairs with her usual bloodshot eyes. She nodds towards the two of you and leaves for the day. > you flick the ash off of your cigarret and get up from your stool. "On second though, i have somewhere to be" you say leaving > shots nods in understandment and you walk off. > you were getting to the bottom of this
