DeviantART: http://spaghettisparklechan.deviantart.com/   >you're on the way back from Sweet Apple Acres >you don't want to waste a Thursday just sitting around waiting for Sunday >you decide to try to get one of Twilight's other friends back: Rarity >you pass by your own place and pick up some gems for Spike and Rarity >it's always good to have a peace offering >as you approach the Carousel Boutique, you notice it's in semi-disrepair >shit's not looking good   >you knock on the door >Spike answers >he's a little taller than you remember him being four years ago >just a little Hey Spike >Spike:"Hey Anon." You're going to let me see Rarity. >Spike:"Rarity doesn't see any visitors. I can take your order for you." Why? >Spike:"Because of certain business-- well, never mind. You don't need to know. What're you looking for? Another business suit?" You sure I can't see Rarity? I've got all these gems~ in my pocket. >Spike:"D-Do you have any perfectly cut emeralds about one inch in diameter? Rarity never lets me have those!" Right here in my hand     >as you approach Rarity's room, you hear the familiar hum of a sowing machine >there are lots of cardboard boxes stacked all over the store >Spike leaves your side and begins packaging dresses in the boxes >you knock on the door >Rarity:"Come on in Spike, darling. I've got a list of some fabulous materials we're going to need for the week." >you open the door >Rarity:"Oh, it's you, Anon. I thought I made EXPLICT instructions not to let anyp0ny in." >Spike, munching on a emerald, says, "He's not a pony." >she looks furious >Rarity:"Spike! I never expected YOU would work on such an UNCOUTH technically!" >Spike realizes he just pushed a hot button issue >he rushes over to Rarity and gives her a big hug >Spike:"I'm sooo sorry! Do you want me to kick him out?" >her eyes lose their intensity >her expression curls into a smile, he's to adorable for her to be mad at >Rarity:"No Spike, it's okay. It was a dumb rule anyway."   >Rarity:"Now, Anon. What could you be here for? It just MUST be important, darling." I wanted to talk about Twilight Sparkle >Spike gets out of Rarity's forelegs and goes back to work packing dresses >Rarity:"Excuse Spike, Twilight didn't treat Spike with enough... respect. I know what Twilight is like now, Anon. You don't need me to go into... grotesque detail I presume." So I can spare you the details of her reclusiveness. Her loss of friends, family, and now magic? >she looks ashamed >Rarity:"I didn't know about the magic."   Listen, I just want you to try and hang out with her. At least once. >Rarity:"W-Why are you so invested Anon?" Because I'm dating the little weeaboo. And I lo-like her a lot. >ATOMIC SQUEE >she immediately begins work on something for you >Rarity:"You'll NEED to wear this on your next date with Twilight, darling!" Sooo... >you scratch your chin Does this mean you're going to try to be friends again? >Rarity:"Well OF COURSE, darling. I know you. You're trying to change her right? I try to change my little Spiky Whiky all the time!" >your still not sure if these two are an item >you try to initiate some other conversations with Rarity, but she's in a manic state   [Rarity is taken with a fey mood!] [Press enter to close]   >you decide to ask Spike what's happened to Rarity the last few months >as far as you were concerned, Rarity was a famous internet fashionista >she had her own line of sex toys for christ's sake >Spike looks downcast when you ask him why >Spike:"Rarity... she's a great fashionista and an even better friend, but she's no businesspony. She was cheated out of her claim to the "Rarity's Innovations" line of products. Now all she does is mope in her inspiration room and do anonymous commissions over ebay. I decided I wanted to help Rarity through this hard time a month and a half ago. So I moved in. I also did it to get away from Twilight." >he looks post-traumatic when Twilight is mentioned Thought you'd take advantage of a good situation huh? Strike while the iron is hot? How many times have you done it? >you give him a smirk >Spike:"None, it fucking sucks."   Who got the rights to the Rarity's Innovations name? >Spike:"Applezon." >oh_it's_fucking_on.tiff   ~~~END PART 11~~~
