"Rainbow, are you home?" >Still no answer. >KNOCK KNOCK, JERKIE. >... >Huh, that's strange. >You probably would've heard her yell at you to go away. >Something's not right. "I'm coming in, Rainbow Dash!" >You waited a couple of seconds to see if she responded. >Eee-nope. >You enter the cloud house. >Her house... >It was a wreck. Posters littered from wall to wall, sports material scattered around everywhere, and the occasional dish left uncleaned. >This was a normal occurrence in her house. >Which is why you were worried when it was clean. "Rainbow, are you okay?" >You scan the front hall to find a note lying around on her desk. >Why was there a vanity on there?! >Read the note. It's in fancy hoofwriting. >Oh buck this was not good.   "To whom this may concern: I am not at home. I've departed to search for Anon, for I wish to tell him of my moment of clarity. In fact, I may not return for a while, I simply must tell everypony of my moment of zen, that Rainbow Dash will now dress in style!"   >Bucking Rarity.   --------------------   >Be Anon >You were waiting at Sugarcube Corner for Pinkie to return. >She had to run errands due to being behind on party planning. >Even though the party was 1 month away. >Literally. "Siiiigh.." >You had plans to try and take her to the new Whinnyland park that recently opened near Ponyville. >Note the 'try'. >You had horrible memories of Disney Park ticket prices. >Who's to say Whinnyland tickets aren't expensive as fuck? >Well, there she is, the Pink Perplexicon >She's attempting to stifle a laugh. >Hoo boy. "You okay there, champ?" >"PFfft...heh...Anon...upstairs....pfffnow." >Oh shit. >You race with Pinkie up to her bedroom. >You close the door. >You get on the floor. >And wait for Pinkie to let it out. >"PFAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA..AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA-" "Just let it out." >A couple of minutes at least pass before she calms down enough. "Alright, breath slowly, and tell me what happened." >"Anon...you're never gonna believe this! Rainbow Dash! The park!" >Rainbow Dash. >Aw sheet. >Her and Pinkie were butt buddies, and Ponyville's deadliest pranksters. >You liked to think you were a rusemaster, but Pinkie and Dash had you beat. >And with it being so close to April Foal's Day, you had to keep up with them. >Shame would not be on you today. >Even if Dash had her...incident. "Lay it on me. What did the two of you do?" >"She...her...PFFAAHAHAHAHAHAHA-" "Calm down...what happened." >"SHE DRESSES IN STYLE, ANONNNN!" >Dresses in style? >Okay, goddammit why was this turning into G3? "Could you say that again?" >"Okay okay...she was at the park, I saw her on the way back, she had this really girly dress on, I'd expect that from Rarity more than anypony." "Okay..?" >"And when I asked about it, I kid you not, she said that this was her true calling, to be a legend in feminine dress-up!" >Oh dear.   ----   >You would not have believed her on any day that Rainbow Dash, the most athletic pony that you knew in this world, would willingly become a sissy. >But after that...incident...you were inclined to believe her. >... "So you expect me to believe that Rainbow Dash has stopped being a tomboy and started to channel her inner Rarity." >"Yes." >Then again, this was Ponk and TopCunt you were dealing with. "I'm hesitant to believe you, you know this, right?" >"Anon, if you've known Rainbow Dash for as long as I have, and I've known for for a veeeery long time, you'd know that she always hates girly stuff." >You raise an eyebrow. "Always." >"Always." >That eyebrow raises even higher. "Even when close to April Foals Day." >"I've tried before, she always draws the line at girly stuff. I tried to pull a personality swap prank a couple years ago, but she wouldn't go for it, it's just so funny seeing her finally do it!" >[eyebrowsintensify.gif] >"I am not making this up, Anon." >You sigh. "Alright, I'll give you the benefit of the doubt." >"Thanks, Nonny, it's just-" "But I'm wary of you both." >You head downstairs to grab your stuff. You had left it down there because of the rush. >God dammit you did not want your laptop to be stolen. >All that music and porn you stored on there. >With all those ziggers walkin' around you trusted no one. >You look for your shit. >Thank God. It's still there. >You grab it and leave to who knows where. >Maybe visiting Starbutt might be a good idea. >"Anon, dearie, there you are!" >Aw crap. >Rarity was back from Canterlot. >You forgot she was coming back this week. "Hi, Rarity. Long time no see." >"Rarity? Oh no no no, darling, she's not due to return for another two days. Just me, darling." >Wait what. >You turn around to see the bearer of that voice. >Sure enough, it's Rainbow Dash in a VERY frilly dress and a VERY feminine hairdo. >Manedo. >Whatever they called it here. >... "Er..." >"What is it, darling?" >You struggle to contain a laugh. >This was too good. >Even if it was Rainbow Cunt's early-bird prank, it was comedy gold. >Just play along, Anon. "I...er, that's a really neat dress you have on, Rainbow Dash.." >"Oh, but of course. I simply couldn't be seen outside without it on!" >PFFFFFT >"I haven't a clue why I didn't accept my inner mare before, Anon. I fear I was too much of a ruffian in my youth." >And you have no idea why you didn't embrace your inner Discord. >Now you just needed popcorn. >"Thank goodness Rarity was there to help me overcome my tomboyish habits, I simply do not know what I'd do without her." >Wait. >That day with the lipstick. >You had encountered a pony who tried to put it on her as a joke. >But he gave up quickly when Top Cunt gave the puppy-eye look. >She was the knight of puppy-eyes, right next to Sweetie Belle. >When Rarity found the two of you, instead of washing Dash off, she decided to finish the job. >Let it be known that you never want to legitimately piss Starbutt off again. >So was she just hamming it up? Or... >... "Well, it certainly was strange earlier." >"Indeed. So, Anon, let me purchase a glass of tea, and I'll accompany you to the spa." "I- okay." >You weren't planning on going to the spa today. >But if it meant seeing Rainbow Style in action, sure why not? >The two of you go to the spa, as planned >You decide to strike up a conversation with former Top Cunt "So, is there any reason you need to head to the spa, Rainbow Dash?" >"Why, yes, I need to pick up some hair lotion, heaven knows I have none back at my house. I've been cleaning house these past couple of days, and I haven't had time to go out and about." >So this was why she was MIA for three days straight. >Rainbow Dash >Cleaning >201X+Y >...you really need to ask what year it is. >"I do want to invite you over sometime, but I can tell you're very busy." "Eeyup." >She picks up the hair lotion, letting Lotus ring it up at the register. >With that over with, and with weird looks from everyone, the two of you depart. >"Thanks for accompanying me to the spa, Anonymous, I'm flattered that I got to talk with you." "Hey, don't sweat it." >'You're one to talk.' >Shut up, brain. >'lolnope' >"Oh! Also, while it's on my mind, I'm terribly sorry for what happened a while back." >Uhm. "What happened." >"I'm certain you remember it, but in my rougeish past I may have sent you a blind invitation to the spa for something called...a Deep Down treatment. I haven't used it, perish the thought!" >GOD DAMMIT >YOU SHOULD HAVE KNOWN SHE WAS BEHIND THAT >FUCKING TOP CUNT >... >Patience, Anon, she's pulling her 'feminine' prank here. >Angry noises will only bring you down. "Weeeeell...I forgive you. That was a while back, nothing else has come of it." >"I'm relieved. Anyhoo, I really have to get going. I need to pick up a new dress at the Carousel Boutique, perhaps they have something pretty that I'd like." "Well, alright. See ya." >"Toodles!" >You struggled to hold in another set of gigglesnorts. >With that in mind, you decide to revisit Ponka. >You were determined to try and visit Whinnyland. >No femiDash nor spa was going to stop you.   >You're on your way to visit Filly Ponka >It's just around the corner. >You're not forgetting to bring that up with her again. >Alright, let's see what- >"OOF!" "OOF!" >-...you'll bump into this time. "Ugh...watch where you're going, ya fool!" >"Anon, is that you?" >Aw shit, Starbutt Reports In! >And she looks really worried. >But then again that's every day. "The one and only." >"Okay...have you seen Rainbow Dash?" >Uh oh. "...yeah? Just saw her earlier. She just went back to her house." >"Okay, I need to ask a serious question. Was she wearing a dress?" >You try to keep the gigglesnort in. >... "Pffahahaha- yes." >"Oh no...so she's really.." >Okay yeah, Rainbow Femme is just too great. >April Foals or not, it's a brilliant prank. "Ahahahahaaha..." >"ANON!" "Heh...sorry." >"Okay, so she's back home. Crud." "Why's that?" >"I went over this morning to visit her, see how well she's recovering, but she wasn't home. Her house was clean, much cleaner than it normally is- not that I'm complaining, mind you, but it's surreal that she would just suddenly start cleaning." "I can imagine why." >You knew her all too well. >"And...and I saw this note on her vanity, I really think you need to read this." "Okay, sure, let's see." >You grab the note, and skim through it. >Blah blah blah looking for Anon, blah blah clarity, blah blah moment of zen- >'BRAIN TO ANON, ATTENTION MAGGOT. YOU NEED TO PAY ATTENTION TO TWILIGHT' >Shut up, Brain, I'm trying to read. >'BITCH YOU DON'T TALK TO ME LIKE THAT, YOU HEARD HER TALK ABOUT RAINBOW'S VANITY' >So what, it's not like- >WAIT. >Vanity? "...say what about a vanity?" >Okay, this was getting too weird. >"The note was posted on her vanity in the front hall of her house, can't exactly remember where on it-" "No no no, not the note, I'm wondering where she got the vanity from." >You were certain she didn't have a vanity. >"..." >Aww shit. >"...come to think of it, I don't think Rainbow Dash had a vanity before now." >Shit, maybe Rainbow Dash wasn't bullshitting you when she said she was cleaning house. >And maybe this whole sissy bullshit isn't bullshit either. >What the fuck? "So, question, what did the rest of the house look like?" >"That's another thing - I immediately checked the other rooms to see if I was being improperly paranoid-" "Like you usually are." >"Anon, hush. Her bedroom changed from blue with Wonderbolts posters and medals to pink with frilly dresses and make-up." >Jesus Christ >"And that's just the bedroom. Her kitchen was full of teapots and teabags instead of cans of cola and cider. In fact, I think I only saw one bottle of cider - and it was imported overseas from Prairis. Her living room was a set of china and silverware. Her backyard- Anon, you know how it's a training court for her flying skills that she brags about all the time?" "Y-yeah?" >"I filly-fool you not, it's now an area for tea parties. >Holy SHIT. >You now fully believed Ponka when she said this wasn't a prank. >If it was a prank, god damn was Dash dedicated. >Just...HOLY SHIT. "Holy shit." >"I know." >Rainbow Dash- if that was even her- had completely changed into a full-on sissy mare. >This was...gonna suck. "Sooooo, Twi." >"Yeah?" "How do you think this happened?" >"I think Rarity may have had something to do with it." >You remembered what had happened earlier that week. >You were still keeping yourself from giving Starbutt some shit on the side. >Angry Starbutt was scary. >"Unfortunately, she's out on a business trip this week, so until she gets back I can't get to her." "Well, shit sucks." >"I have sent a letter to Princess Cadence due to her experience with this situation." "Because sending letters to your mentor is always- wait you said Cadence, didn't you." >"Mmhmm." >Awwwkward. "Uhh-" >"Come on, I'm not that useless, Anon." >Says the shithead who almost- >"There you are. Good heavens, Twilight, are you alright, dear? And hello, Anon." >Aaaaand here comes the tea train. >Open wide. "Hey again, Rainbow." >Because clearly you couldn't get enough of Top Cunt. >"...Rainbow Dash? Anon, you've gotten your ears checked, yes?" >Wait what. >You wheel around. >It's Rarity. >God dammit the darlings were getting to your head. "OH." >Shit "Uhhhhh..." >'Okay, brain to Anon. Keep your spaghetti hidden.' "I can explain..nothing to worry about, honest.." >'Good job' >"Well, we were just talking about you, Rarity. There's been a bit of an issue going on today, and we think you might have something to do with it." >"Whatever might that be, dear?" "Okay...get this: Rainbow Dash has been going around town with a frilly dress and makeup." >"...did she lose a bet?" "And she was saying that her...erm, 'tomboyish nature', was a bad habit or something." >"That's not the worst part. Somehow, her house changed from whatever lurks inside her Cloud Castle to something that, no offense her, you would enjoy more than anything." >"Wait, she did WHAT to her house?" "Yeah. We're still trying to wrap our heads around this whole thing. Basically, she's become a sissy, or whatever the term in Equestria is." >"...huh." >"We've already sent word to Cadence, just to make sure this doesn't get out of hoof." >You wondered why Cadence in particular. >"Well...to be fair, that's why I came down here early, because Cadence was concerned about you, Twilight. Something about a letter that involved me." >Okay, too much of a coincidence. >'But what do you know? You're Anonymous in the eyes of a Writeslut.' >... >But is it a sexy Writeslut?   >Be Writeslut >God dammit Anon   >Be Anon again >"I suppose I shall try and pull off a decent Rainbow Dash impression-" >"NO. Never again." >... "Care to explain, Twilight?" >"...long story short, Trenderhoof managed to have Applejack and Rarity swap personalities. We're never doing that again." >"Oh, but I have the perfect dress to go with it." >You remember what Dash had said about Rarity earlier that day. "Well, if it helps, Rainbow did look up to you, Rarity, for helping her 'overcome her tomboyish habits'." >Hoo shit >They looked at you as if you had spoken a forbidden spell. >"Care to explain, Rarity?" >"BY CELESTIA'S BEARD I HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH THIS!" >passthepopcorn.png >"I mean, granted, her brashness gets on my nerves sometimes, but I've left well enough alone." "Sure you have." >"I've been in the Crystal Empire since the incident. Unless I'm somehow able to forcefully influence Dash from towns away, I don't understand why-" "Alright, alright." >"Okay, I believe you, but this still doesn't help-" >"Darlings, I've been looking all over for you. How are you fine ladies today?" >Oh shit >The two of you look to the side. >It's Rainbow Dash, wearing a new pink frilly dress and make-up. >Be Rainbow Dash >After cleaning your house again and putting on your new dress, you set out to see Anon again. >You simply cannot wait to tell Anon how good this dress feels. >It's as if it was made for you. >And in a fashionable stroke of luck, you find Anon, Twilight, and your closest friend and mentor, Rarity, talking amongst themselves. >"R-Rainbow? I...I..." "Twilight? Good heavens, what's ailing you?" >"I-I... I d-don't even-" >You knew she was socially awkward, but she never really stuttered unless something really shocked her. "Oh...is this too tomboyish a dress for me?" >You certainly hoped not. >You really wanted to do away with the rogueish attitude you once had. >This was a habit that would not go away. >"N-no, the d-dress is fine. It's not t-tomboyish at all." >Okay, whew. >You were worried that your old self was kicking in. >"B-but...th-that's the problem." >... "Could you rephrase that for me, darling?" >This time, Anon spoke up. >"Dash, I gotta be clear, I have no idea whether this is an elaborate prank or not, kudos if it is, but the Rainbow Dash we know is...not this." >So..they liked the old you? >That roguish brute of a mare that everyone knew? >Perish the thought, Dashie. You simply cannot go back. "Darling, that selfish behaviour of the old me was hardly acceptable in my books, I couldn't fathom why I kept going as I did." >"Rainbow Dash, that 'selfish behaviour' was the one we came to know and love. I don't think this is an easy change for us." >Ah, so they were just afraid of this sudden change. >Seemed reasonable, you hadn't been out of the house after your moment of zen until today. "Well, I appreciate your concern, but my heart is set. Of course I'm not going to try and force my beliefs on you, but I, for one, am a changed mare, one that doesn't need such outlandish aspirations such as the 'Wonderbolts'." >Be Anon. Again. >Holy shit. >This was incredible. >It was basically the anti-thesis of Rainbow Dash. >This 'changed mare' represented everything that Rainbow Dash absolutely despised. >You could not believe that it was by her own choice, but holy shit there it was. >Holy shit. >...'Holy shit' was going to be your internal catchphrase. You just know it. "...well, I guess." >"Now, darlings, I apologize for this being on short notice, but I do wish to invite you over to my house later today for a Tea Party." >Oh fuck no. >You hated tea. >It tasted like ass. >You knew why everyone liked it. >It was a healthy, 'tasty' drink. >But it tasted like ass. "Uhh, I think I might have to-" >"Psst." >You look over to the side. Rarity was looking straight at you. >She winked. >Huh, maybe she has a plan? >Or it could just be a date. >Either way...you'd have to drink tea here. "Sure." >"Dashie, darling, I'd love to come over." >"Uhhh, sure. I don't think I have anything going on tonight. I'll check my schedule to make sure." >Dash's face was that of girlish glee. >"Splendid! I'll make preparations as soon as possible!" >She started to head back to her castle, but before she did, she paused. >"Oh, and could you also ask Pinkie Pie, Fluttershy, and Applejack if they wish to attend? I'd love to have them over as well." "Will do." >On that note, Rainbow Dash gracefully flew off. >Note the gracefully. >Yeah. >Holy shit.
