Rarity's Diary
The Ticket Master
Previous ChapterNext ChapterMy dearest diary;
How splendid and fabulous today has been. I was buying some fashion supples that I would be using for an ensemble for the Grand Galloping Gala. Along my way however, I stumbled upon Spike, who was holding tickets to the gala. Pinkie Pie informed me news that Twilight was taking her. As much as my aspiration is to be a fashion designer, I previously mentioned that I've also wanted to be a princess. But this isn't just to be royal. It would be so that I can meet, him! Prince Blueblood, the princess' nephew. If he were to meet me, and take my hoof in marriage, I would yelp, "YES!" and together, we would be together forever and ever and ever!
Unfortunately, I was irritated that Twilight was bringing Pinkie with her so that Pinkie could 'party'. However, I learnt that Twilight hadn't picked anypony to come with her yet. This gave me enough adrenaline to be more ecstatic about my chance of going to the gala, but I had some competition.
Not only did Pinkie Pie want to go with Twilight, but others did too. Fluttershy's pet bunny snatched the tickets and shown them to her. Fluttershy shown indication that she wanted to go to the grand galloping gala. I was shocked. Why, in the name of Celestia, would Fluttershy want to attend a public event that many ponies will be present at. I asked her why she wanted to go, to which she responded that it was to see all of the flora and fauna. No, I do not care for wildlife. Too dirty for my own taste.
I have no exact idea how that bunny of hers acts. One moment, he's acting adorable, the next, he's doing random things. It's like Sweetie Belle if she were unlikable. This bunny is unlikable in the way that he was foiling my plans of ~~being a ruler of Equestria~~ marrying Prince Blueblood.
Next, I learned that Rainbow Dash, and Applejack also wanted to attend the gala. I tried explaining how, if I were royalty, the percentage of how well fashion is would go up, but it was hard for me to even be heard. Twilight yelled to interrupt all of us, and Pinkie Pie was strangely talking about oatmeal. Maybe that's the real reason she wants to go to the gala. What a juvenile reason. My reasons were obviously the most mature and free-willed, but considering the only friends I have, I decided to not risk losing any of them.
I asked Twilight to reconsider, but she snapped at me. Feeling like my ladylike charm was too much, I backed away. You can't make your words too obvious.
Twilight told all of us that she hadn't made up her mind yet, and asked us to leave. On my way back to a shop to get some supplies, I thought to myself about how to convince Twilight to take me, but nothing was coming to mind; that is until the rain started.
I immediately picked out my best raincoat, but could see Rainbow Dash standing on a cloud talking to a pony. I knew that she was trying to convince Twilight to take her to the gala. Twilight disregarded Rainbow's obvious best efforts. I tried to be as generous as I could: by bringing Twilight, and Spike in from the rain. Next, I thought, maybe Twilight would give her extra ticket to me.
As we entered, Twilight shook herself, and drenched my entire body. I wanted to snap at her (I was even giving off a glare), but I held in all of my frustration, and managed to make Twilight try on a new outfit, not only to convince her to bring me to the gala, but also so that she could look more divine.
I also tried an outfit on Spike in case he was giving. You must look like a sir and handsome gentlemen if you expect to go to the gala. He immediately ran away from what I was doing, but it didn't matter. I finally had Twilight's trust in my grasp. I am always the best at subtle performances. I admit that I am rather deceptive, but it helps in a hard world like this one. Unfortunately, I was so desperate to attend this auspicious occasion, that my acting was much too melodramatic, and over-the-top. Admittedly, my performance was too one-sided in my favor.
Twilight was onto me. She left my boutique furiously, but was welcomed by Applejack, who was trying to feed Twilight food because she was hungry. I slowly trudged along to the door and shut it tight in dissapointment. I couldn't bear to watch another pony have a chance of winning Twilight's trust. But then I thought to myself, "If I pretend to act casual towards Twilight the next time I see her, I may just get a ticket after all". From there, I worked my acting skills to perfection.
Suddenly, a large group of ponies were stampeding through town, and passed by my boutique. They appeared to be chasing Twilight, possibly for the ticket. As admittedly desperate as I was, I knew Twilight's amount of choices had increased. I sneaked my way to her library, which was far away from where the stampede was.
When I entered, I found Fluttershy cleaning Twilight's library, most likely trying to impress her. Pinkie Pie was there also, who was napping on one of the beds. I glared, and rolled my eyes in irritance. These ponies seemed nice at first, but now, they are turning into classic cases of friendly annoyances.
Rainbow Dash sped in fast. I could feel the breeze she was making, so I ducked away. Finally, I noticed Applejack closely following behind, obviously suspicious of Dash's antics.
We all bickered when we joined one another upstairs, until soon enough, a powerful blast occured. Twilight and Spike had teleported themselves to the library, and we could see the two locking all windows and doors. When she turned around, she found all of us giving off the best acting we could.
But just there, I felt guilty. Twilight, all of a sudden, burst out at us in sheer rage. She noted about all of us being her friend, and that she will never be able to decide who to take. We all came to our apologies one by one, except for Rainbow Dash, who appears to find it harder to hold on to her dreams than I thought.
In the end, Twilight decided to not want to go to the gala at all, and sent the two tickets back to the princess, who, in return, gave Twilight six tickets for all of us. I was delighted. Prince Blueblood is the absolute hottest thing in Canterlot. I cannot wait to spend time with him.
~~I proposed to Blueblood because he was too shy to propose to me and together, wee dined at a royal hall, and I myself became royalty. Celestia gave me a crown, and then, my business was popular to everyone~~ I proposed that we take Twilight to dinner. Throughout our whole dinner with our hungry friend, I was just gushing non stop about the prince. I can't wait to meet him, he shall be everything I imagine, and MORE! Can you believe it?! Not only am I being paid for my ensemble, but I shall get married to Blueblood, and become the wife of the most handsome stallion in Equestria, not to mention that I will be royalty. YES!
Once, I meet Blueblood, it'll all be worth it.

Author's Note
For those of you, who are wondering why this was renamed to Rarity's diary, it's from a minor hiccup I noticed that I had caused. In Ponyville Confidential, Rarity refers to her 'journal' as her diary, so I may as well change the title to 'Rarity's Diary'. Don't worry, the setup is still the same.
