The Story So Far: http://pastebin.com/u/Kiyo3

Yesterday with posts: http://archive.heinessen.com/mlp/thread/13707765

 

>You wake up a little before your alarm clock.

>Like... 8:00 AM or some shit.

>You've never been good at falling back asleep after you're up.

>You open up your laptop and check your usuals.

>While listening to a couple of dubstep remixes of pop songs, you're filtering through your email, and you stroll through Facebook.

>Most of what you see are all your friends from high school, posting really fun looking pictures with all their new friends in college.

>While you're here.

>Are you happy here? Eh, kinda.

>Spike's snoring quietly away, and you hate the sound of snoring, so you shower down and get your clothes on.

 

A. Food

B. Lobby

 

>Sustenance is key.

>Plato once said that the humors of the body were connected to life.

>And that... is important to the story somehow...

>You go on the line and get the regular.

>The soft, yellow peel of your banananans is penetrated by your fingers, and you take the whole length into your mouth.

>God damn, can those AS kids grow crops...

>You stuff another banana into your mouth.

*giggle* "Is it tasty?"

>You and your mouth full of bananas turn and see a familiar face, freckled and cross-eyed.

>Are you the only one who finds that cute?

>Derpy giggles again.

"Um, you don't mind me sitting here, do you?"

>Nooope.

>You just hope she doesn't mind a man with a home-grown banana fetish.

>Derpy laughs a little more.

>It does your heart good to hear her laugh.

>Especially what happened Sunday.

"I... Thanks Anon. I'm... I'm trying not to think about it. I want to get past that, y'know?"

>She deserves better friends anyway.

>She smiles at you and nods.

"I just... Well, I just can't stop thinking about how you saved me, Anon..."

>She blushes.

"I... Thanks again. I don't know what would've happened... If you hadn't been there."

>You... don't know what to say.

>You were just being there for a friend...

>She would've done the same for you.

"Totally! You're just so amazing Anon. You've really helped me out so much since I came here."

>No problem.

>She's really sweet and... kinda cute.

>Maybe one day everyone will see that.

>More tomato action from Derpy.

"I... Thanks Anon."

>She checks her watch and picks up her stuff.

"I... Um, text me? Maybe we can... um..."

>She blushes hard and looks down.

>She wants to hang out with you?

"I- Yes! I mean... sure."

>Wynaut.

>You wouldn't mind spending time with her.

>As she leaves, you notice her walk with a little more stride in her step.

>She's a nice girl.

>Well, it's 9:50.

>Almost clas-

"Anon!"

>Twilight?

"Come on! You'll be late for the practice test!"

>Shit, you just found out.

>When does it end?

"I... um... 12?"

>Yikes.

 

A. Class

B. Skip (and fail)

 

Phone available (1)

 

>Fuck...

>Maybe you should have studied...

>Or actually have gone to class for the last week.

>Why are midterms so early anyway?

>It's only been 9 days...

>Well, you'll do fine, sure.

>You have Twilight to cheat off of.

"W-What? I don't... No way Anon."

>Damn.

>So, what's she been up too?

"I've been studying for midterms! I'm so worried about it... I don't know anyone in my classes, and it's coming up so soon!"

>Now that she mentions it, she does look like the worrying type.

>Her hair isn't done as neatly as usual, and her shirt is inside out.

>You're pretty sure she isn't wearing a bra either.

>She turns red and folds her arms, a la Fluttershy.

"I... um... stop staring!"

>Okay, okay.

>How's life other than school?

"I got a job with Celestia. I help out in the lab with her after classes."

>A job with Sun-butt?

>Nice...

>Why didn't you take the science major again?

>What about... that guy...

"Flash?"

>Yeah... him...

"I haven't talked to him since the party... I don't think I want to see him again anyway."

>You can't blame her.

>He was clearly being a dick to her.

>She deserves better.

"I- Thanks Anon."

>The two of you enter the physics room and prepare for the hardest non-test test you'd ever take.

>Good luck.

"I can't do this..."

>Okay...

 

...

 

>That wasn't so bad.

>For a guy who missed almost everyday of physics, you're doing pretty well.

>And it's only...

>1:00?

>The bitch lied!

>Where is Twilight anyway.

>You turn and notice her still at her desk, slumped over.

>Is she... okay?

"mmmshmm..."

>What?

"mamsmm..."

>It sounds like [spoiler]you're trying to say Fluttershy, but i'm not sure[/spoiler]

"I failed!"

>Come on Twilight...

>It's only a practice test.

>Imagine what she's like during the real exam...

>Remind Spike to let you sleep in Friday.

>You help her to her feet and pick up her stuff for her.

>She'll be fine.

"Y-you're right Anon. It's... It's only the practice test."

>You lead her out of the classroom and walk on to the lobby.

>She'll be fine here?

"Yeah... I think so..."

>You start heading out, but Twilight calls out to you.

"I think you should take this."

>She hands you a slip of paper.

"I've read that people do better on tests if they study together, so don't forget to call me!"

>Calling people.

>In 2013.

>This bitch.

>You say goodbye and head back to your dorm, crashing on the bed,

>Spike is gone, [hopefully] in class.

>You feel a buzz from your pocket.

>Three new messages.

Rainbro: Gym. 4:00. Be there loser :P

>maybe.

>Who else...

Applejack: Come by the dorm in a bit.

>Sent a few minutes ago...

>And... Derpy?

>She hardly texts you.

>Or is it the other way around?

Derpy: Maybe you'd wanna hang out later?

>You'd h-

Derpy: I mean, if that's okay with you, I mean.

>This girl.

 

A. Derpy

B. Rainbro

C. Apples

 

Applejack (Do you want to do something later?): I'm up for anything honey. Just text me back :)

>Yfw Understanding girlfriend.

>Even if you didn't tell her anything.

Rainbro (Wanna make that gym time earlier?): Sure. I'll be right there."

>You run into your room and Macguyver into your gym clothes.

>Damn, you're slipping up with the quickchange routine. Gotta keep practicing it.

>You race towards the gym and enter, setting yourself up to get ready for Dash.

"Hitting the gym early, bud? I like it."

>There she is. Finally.

>She has her rainbow hair in a ponytail, and is wearing tight shorts and a light blue sports bra.

>Your dick could do bench presses right now.

"Ok, let's get started bro."

>You tell her that she should be waiting for you because you're gonna push it.

>To the limit.

>Cause you're in it to win it.

>Disney Channel pls.

>inb4 cease and desist

>You and Rainbow try out all sorts of machines and equipment, wasting hours inside the gym.

>Soon, You and Rainbro fist each other copiously before heading your separate ways.

>Your phone buzzes as you walk to the showers.

Derpy: Sorry if i'm bothering you so much.

>Poor girl.

>She needs a real shot of self-esteem.

>Straight to her kidneys.

>You see Applejack walking back from the AS field.

>What time is it now?

>5:00?

>Wow.

>This day went by pretty fast.

 

A. Derpy

B. Apples

 

Derpy (You aren't bothering me. Np): That's good. I got worried that I was being annoying.

>Not at all.

>She should stop worrying about if she's bothering you.

>That's another reason for her... unpopularity.

>Maybe you should help her out...

Derpy (Are you busy tonight?): No! Do you want to hang out?

>You... aren't sure.

>You call up Applejack, just to be sure.

>[spoiler]How serious are we?[/spoiler]

>Could she postpone her plans...?

>You're caught up with something?

"Oh really? Like what?"

>You're helping a friend gain her self-confidence back.

"Her?"

>Does she know Derpy?

>Goalie for the soccer team?

"Oh her? Well, that's mighty fine of ya to go help a friend out like that. Just let me know when you come back. Maybe we can have our own fun for a change..."

>Apple pie.

>Yum.

>So now that that's finished with...

Derpy (I'm totally free now): Okay! I'll see you in the lobby at...

>7:00.

Derpy: 7 it is :)

>Well, this should be interesting.

>You've got some time before hand...

 

A. Dorm

B. Lobby and wait

 

>Maybe it's best to go into the lobby.

>You look pretty ok in your Mark Zuckerburg costume, right?

>The ladies dig that.

>It worked on Apples.

>You lie down on the couch and start to fall asleep.

>You're not ignoring Applejack, right?

>You've only been together for, what, a day and a half?

>And it's not like it's official...

>You drift off into a surreal world of chocolate walruses and it was john and the game...

"Um, Anon?"

>Derpy?

>Here already?

>Wait, what time is it...

>7:15.

>Yikes.

>She giggles and helps you up.

"So, um, ready to go?"

>She can bet her sweet little dimpled face you are.

>Wait, how are you traveling,,,

"I have a car, Anon."

>No shit, seriously?

>Way cool.

>Although, you lose the sense of respect when you learn it's a Prius.

>Really Derpy?

"It was a graduation present... You can't just say no to some gifts."

>True.

>You climb in next to her as she puts on her seat-belt.

"Um, so, where are we going Anon?"

 

A. Restaurant.

B. Club.

C. Lounge

 

>This should be fun.

>Just you and a moderate depressive cruising into town for a little bit of fun.

>Right?

>You have Derpy park into a small Italian place you ate at once during Open House here.

>Yes, you went to that

>No reservations, nice atomsphere...

>This should be nice.

>Your waiter takes the two of you to the back of the restaurant, and takes your orders.

>Did you mention great service?

>Because they have that too.

"Wow Anon! This place is great!"

>You know.

>You know what the ladies like.

*giggle* "I'm sure you do."

>So, what's school like for her?

"I don't know what's going with that. I'm still undecided, and I really have no directio-"

"Your drink, signora."

>Grazie mille.

>You watch as Derpy takes a drink and continues.

"Well, as I was saying, I just don't know. I'm not as confident as other people. Definitely not like you Anon."

>Flattery will get her everywhere.

>You and Derpy chat about different things, about friends and soccer.

>Apparently she's doing better.

>You'll have to see one of her games some time.

>As the hours pass, you notice her speech getting a little slurred, and she's a little red.

>Is she okay?

"I-I'm totally fine, A-Anon. What makes ya say that..."

>She's not fine...

>What's in that drink?

>Hell, what is she drinking?

>Da fuq...

>Vodka?

>What kind of joke is this?

>You turn and hear some female laughter...

>Just like from Sunday...

>Those same girls came and ruined Derpy's night...

>Derpy, who are those girls anyway.

"I dunno Anon... They're... from around 'r somethin..."

>Jesus...

>It's like she never had a drink before.

>She definitely can't handle it.

>You grab her hand and lead her out of the restaurant, leaving some cash on your table.

>As you walk, Derpy trips over a waiter, spilling another table's drinks all over her.

>The restaurant is silent, save for the laughter of the girls.

>Fucking sluts...

>You lead her out of there and fish her car keys from her purse. You gotta get out of there.

"Anon... I'm so... wet..."

>Yeah.

>You can see that.

"Can ya make me a little more... wet?"

>Wait, what?

>You turn around just as she grabs your face.

>She leans in fast and kisses you, her lips meeting yours with amateur precision.

 

A. Business

B. Bizness

 

>You let her kiss you for a few seconds.

>But as you do, your thoughts go back to Applejack...

>What are you doing?!

>You gently push Derpy off of you.

>You can't do this with her.

>Not now, maybe not ever.

>You have a girlfriend, and... besides, she's drunk.

>You don't want her to do something she might regret tomorrow.

"But A-Anon, please... I-I never-"

>Stop, Derpy. Please.

>She's better than this...

>She just needs a little help.

>Derpy doesn't answer you.

>You help her into the car and drive back to CU.

>She doesn't say anything on the way back either.

>Once you stop the car, you realize she was asleep. the whole time.

>Poor girl.

>You carry her unconscious body into the girls hall and use her I.D. to get inside.

>There's her dorm...

>You fluff her pillows a bit and lay her down gently.

>As you go, you can almost hear your name being called out...

>You'll check on her later.

>You head back to your dorm, passing through the lobby.

>Spike is there...?

>Why isn't he inside the room?

"Applejack kicked me out of the room. She said she was gonna surprise you."

>As you go, Spike calls out to you.

"Hey Anon, are you two, like... y'know... together?"

>Yeah.

>Yeah, you are.

"Nice choice."

>You go back to your dorm and open the door, which isn't locked at all.

>Inside, the lights are off.

>Applejack?

"Is that mah Shiny knight in armor standin' there?"

>You turn on the light and see Applejack sitting on your bed, in nothing but an open button down shirt and a pair of panties.

>Oh, why now?

>She starts kissing you, but she senses you're not into it.

"What's wrong, sugar cube? Should Ah have done somethin' else?"

>It's not her.

>She looks great.

>It's just that Derpy...

>You tell Applejack about the night, leaving out the... kiss...

>Derpy's just...

>She's really a mess.

>She's depressive and has no self-confidence...

>She really needs friends right now.

>Applejack kisses you again and rubs your shoulders.

"Y'know, Ah think ya did the right thing going with her before me. Ya gave her ah nice night out, even if it was ruined. That's bein' a true friend right there."

>She kisses you again.

"That's why Ah love ya."

>You hug her and help her back into her clothes.

>As she leaves, Spike comes back inside.

"So? How was it?"

>You'll tell him about "it" later.

>Now you just wanna sleep the night away.
