Roseluck has been having a bad couple of weeks. Nothing is going right, everything is going wrong, and she simply needs a way to vent.

Colgate is much in the same boat. Non-stop appointments plus nagging clients sending her patience to the far side of the moon and beyond.

When both these two highly stressed mares meet at the bar one night, they find a way to relieve themselves of said stress, and maybe form something more.

Very special thanks to Bad_Seed_72 for her help with this story, both the editing and deep insight.

Now featured on Equestria After Dark, here.
