Thought I'd try my hand doing a new spin of a great old thing. So, if it's your first time here, welcome. And those of you who know us, stay a while, and join us for this new rendition of Anon's life in Canterlot University.   >Be senior year in high school >Senior year, you're just DGAF-ing at home after school one day >Who are you kidding, you're fucking anxious since today is the day admission emails for Stanford and Harvard are sent. >Go home, have a fap, check your email. You're excited as fuck until... >You remember you're a fucking idiot. Both schools have outright rejected you. Not even waitlisted. >At least you had a back up, right? Not enough backups at least. You're too lazy to fill out the applications. >Fucking Common App. >Some place called Canterlot U. None of your friends have ever heard of it, and they hound you about going to some unknown school. >Might as well sign that "Statement of Intent to Register". You're not going to community college. >Fill out some extra bullshit >After writing your SSN 20 times and your birthday twice, they want your projected major. >You want to major in...   A. Science B. Humanities   Your major will affect the classes you will take and the characters that you may see more often than not. However, the choice in major can be changed throughout the year and will not eliminate certain characters from the story line.   >You want to be a humanities major. >You wanna know about the human culture, using methods that are primarily analytical, critical, or speculative, and having a significant historical element. >And apparently you can use Wikipedia well, so that'll help. >You don't wanna listen to Mumford and Sons while smoking weed for homework. >So hip. >So hip... it's a waste.   X months later >You've finally made it to CU. >How you got here, you may never know. >Rollin' up to the dorms, roller suitcase in hand. >Enter the hall into an open atrium/lobby. There's a couple empty couches and tables, a small kitchen, and a place for a small TV. >On the opposite sides of the atrium, there are 2 halls each. >You see a couple other freshmen girls hanging by the east hall and a few dudes trying to get into the west hall. >Is that... a Texan accent you hear? That one taller freshman girl is talking to a shorter, more clean-cut (and presumably cuter) girl with purple-ish hair. >"Down, boy..." you mentally text your slightly rising lower self. >To avoid further spaghetti, you shift focus to the west hall. A short kid wearing purple and a guy with blue hair. >Your suitcase is also starting to feel heavy.   A. Mingle at the East Hall B. Chat at the West Hall C. Find your room and unpack.   >Fuck lifting. You're a bitch. You want that room and you want it now. >You walk to the west hall because >implying you're male and you have a room where the males are congregating. >The guys seem to be having trouble getting into the hall. >Wanting your room more than anything, you ignore them, take out your ID and swipe yourself in. >You walk further down the hall. >220 >222 >224 >226, yup. This is you. >Swipe that shit like you're buying a game from Gamestop. >You enter your room and see 2 empty deskbeds. >Throw your bag on the left and jump on the righ- >Fuck, its hot in here. >You keep the door open and turn on the AC to stay alive. >Unpack a bit. PC on the desk, clothes laid on the bed. >You hear someone at the door. >Short kid in purple from outside. "Hey... I guess you're my roommate? I'm Spike." >"Anonymous. Call me Anon."   First impressions are a bitch, especially with roommates. A. Fast friends. B. Indifferent C. Asshole-ish D. Other, (In writing preferably)   >This is your roommate? >He's kind of short. >Like, freshman in high school short. >But then you see him take out his Alienware laptop because plebtier laptops and shit. >And once he's done throwing his wires all over the room, you notice his LoL wallpaper. >This could work out after all. >He plays? "Yeah! I just got started with it though, but I'm working my way up! I'm already on Bronze III!" >No foolin? >That's where you are too.   [What follows is a seemingly uninteresting conversation on League and other vidya that would take way to long to write out]   "...But, really, you have to admit that Shyvana is pretty hot." >Sure, sure Spike. >He gets on his laptop and turns it on. "Hey, wanna play some right now?"   A. Duo Queue with your bro B. Explore the rest of the dorms C. Sleep.   >Yeah, sure. >Wynaut.jpg >You set up your own laptop and log into the server with Spike. >His league name: spikedragon. >Epic. and totally original >You always went with OPtimisticAnon. >It just flowed off the tongue well.   "C'mon... summon faster!" >What time is it? >You got here around 9, so... >1 o'clock. >You figure that makes sense. >You've lost track of time since you started playing with your new best friend. >Or, acquaintance. "C'mon Anon. Let's keep going!" >No way man. We you gotta get active, or sleep, or something...   A. Explore the rest of the dorms B. Sleep.   >You ignore his pleas and head on out, taking your ultra stylish [spoiler]My Gargantuan Monkey jacket[/spoiler] with you.   [spoiler]Back in high school, the ladies loved you for that jacket. Especially your ex, Fe-[/spoiler]   >As you head out the door, you see a head of electric-blue hair pass by. >High_fashion.jpg >He looks a little old to be a freshman. >Maybe a... grad student? An RA? >You'll have time to meet him later. >In the meantime, you set your sights on the main lobby. >You quickly sit down at the nearest table and scope the situation. >you can see the tall blonde girl talking with a girl with a clown wig and a soccer ba- >Oh, that's not a clown wig. [spoiler]Had to use that one[/spoiler] >A bubbly girl passes by them entering the east hall, and a girl dressed in white comes out of the hall after her. >You also see two other girls, one in yellow, and the other in purple, studying by the couch.   A. Purple B. Bubbles C. Yellow D. White E. Blonde F. Clow- Rainbow   >That girl in yellow is looking pretty cute right now. >You button your jacket and slick your hair. >At least, that's what you imagine. >As you walk over to her, trying to hold in spaghetti, you notice more about her. >Like how she has a sort of... natural look?... going on. >Flowers and animal prints all over her books. >Like it's Earth day. >But it works for her. >Cool. >As you head on over, she notices you, and immediately buries her head deeper into her book. >And you thought you had spaghetti problems... >You take a seat a little ways over from her and wave. >She faintly waves back to you, still hiding behind her books. >The girl in white across from you laughs a little. >What's her problem? "It's nothing, darling. She's just very shy." >Her trans-atlantic accent hits you like a [spoiler]language major trying to figure out what kind of accent she actually has.[/spoiler] >So, that's her issue. >You move a little closer to yellow-girl and introduce yourself. "I'm... flutter..." >What was that? "I'm fl..." >It sounds like she's trying to say...

Back to dorms   >You turn to that girl who was laughing at you a few seconds before. >She's cute too, but you can tell that that's her makeup at work. >What's so funny? "It's really nothing, darling. It's only that she did that to me a few minutes before you came here." >You guess that she really is just shy. >But who is this new girl? "My name is Rarity. I'm in the liberal arts school." >You could've guessed that. >Her dramatic attitude wasn't hiding it. >Well, it was nice meeting he- >But you stay as she brings you into another chat on how her life is and how she worked in fashion before coming here. >Great.why? >You look around the room while she talks. >The blonde chick and the rainbow haired one are starting to pack their stuff up. >The girl in purple is still reading that book. >And bubbles is no where to be seen...   A.

"Hey, is someone in my hair again?" >Again? >You get on out of her head and look at her. >Her smile is the first thing you notice... >It's already infected your usually faceless face. "Hi! What's your name? I never saw you around here before!" >A-Anon. "While, hiya Nonny! I'm Pinkie. Pie. Sounds delicious, right?" >Yeah, sure. "Are you flirting with me?" >What? >You don't want her to take that the wrong way... "It's okay! I'm kidding! Although..." >She looks you over, in a way that may or may not have turned you on. "Nope! Just kidding! Where are you headed?" >Well, you were just trying to meet people before classes start. "And you wanted to meet me!? That's so sweet. You know, you can never have to many friends. I learned that back in high school, where I..." >As she talks, you look back at the lobby. >The blonde chick, Rainbow girl, Rarity, and Fluttershy, are all gone. >The only one there is the purple chick.   A. Meet her B. Stay with Pinkie C. Meet ___ (Dubs and request confirm)   >Meh. >Purps seems really engrossed in her book. >Nerds. What can you do. >You turn back to Pinkie, you watch eat a few pixie sticks. >Probably not the best idea for someone like her? "Heeeey. What're you talking about, someone like me?" >You only meant that someone as... hyper as her... shouldn't have so much sugar. >She might go even crazier. >Not that you mind. "You... like my crazy?" >Wait, she heard your thoughts? "Nope. Just guessed it." >Damn this girl... "Well, if it makes you feel any better, I like you too." >She does? "Well, of course I do! I like everyone!" [spoiler]surely that won't become a problem later[/spoiler] >Well, it was nice meeting her. >Maybe you could hang out with her sometime. "Sure Nonny! Here!" >She hands you her number, but not before kissing it intensely. "I was thinking about having a Week 1 party too.

"Oh. Hello. I'm Octavia." >Do you smell Tsundere? >Other than that, she's really good. "Thanks. I'm trying for a classical music major.
