Trixie's College Daysby The CaptainChaptersThe Letters that Changed it AllA drink with Octavia and an Apple Cyder for TrixieMeet Th' Super Duper ProfessersThe Letters that Changed it AllHummingbirds hummed, Celestia's Sun shined, and the fresh morning air passed through the great city of Canterlot to an average household of respected unicorns. The Lulamoons were highly respected in this society and known for their brilliant daughter Trixie. Known for being an accelerated learner in Princess Luna's Academy for Gifted Unicorns, the sister school to Princess Celestia's School for Gifted Unicorns, she incessantly made the highest marks of her class; she also wasn’t shy to boast about it. She tapped her hoof impatiently, waiting for the mail-pony to arrive with the letter that would change her life forever. She let out an impatient snort. "Where are Ditzy Doo and the mail? I've been waiting for days now," she lamented to nopony. "Be patient, dear. I'm sure she is just stopping for a muffin, as is her custom," cooed her mother, Ellen. "But she’s always late... Even today, the most important day of my life. The day that I get to see if I was accepted into Canterlot University of Magic." She did her best to sound pitiful, but couldn’t hide the streak of arrogance from her voice. She was certain she was getting accepted. Her mother only rolled her eyes, but her father took the bait. "What’s wrong princess? Is the mail-pony upsetting you?" Markus asked very seriously. "If she’s causing my little Trixie undue stress, I’ll have her job freed up by the weekend—” "FATHER! Will you be quiet? I want to see Ditzy and not have you scare her muffins all over my mail... again." Markus stared blankly at his daughter for a moment, as if uncomprehending that she had just rebuked him. He then promptly seemed to forget about it, turning his attention elsewhere and earning another eye-roll from his wife. Down the street, Ditzy was taking her last bites on the moist, chewy, and delicious blueberry muffin from Bon Bon's Bakery on 12th and Faust. She scrambled through her mail bag to see who was next. "Hmmm, let’s see here...” she muttered as she stared at the mail with one of her eyes. Her other eye seemed to stare at her empty plate, as if mourning the loss of another delicious muffin. “Aha, here we go... This is to Miss Trixie Lulamoon of 1220 Lunar Boulevard." A few ponies’ ears twitched in feigned disinterest, their gossip senses tingling. She flapped her wings weakly, causing her to hover a short distance above the ground, as she traveled to the marked location on her city map, when a nearby muffin cart suddenly made her hungrier for more of her favorite treat. A few dozen muffins later, she finally arrived at the Lulamoon household. Staring longingly out the window, Trixie finally spotted Ditzy with a muffin and a manila folder with the Canterlot University of Magic seal on it and leapt to her hooves in excitement. She galloped to the front door and counted down the seconds until Ditzy would arrive. "20... 19... 18... 17... 16... 15... 14..." she rambles on down the number line. "5... 4... 3... 2... 1... 0!" she screamed the final number and wrenched the door open before Ditzy could even bring her hoof up to knock. "Hello there, Miss Trixie Lulamoon! I have some mail for you toda-," Derpy began, but was interrupted by Trixie’s snatching muzzle and a subsequent slamming of the door in her face. Trixie’s eyes shone gleefully, darting back and forth for a place to open the manila folder, the sensitive document slowly becoming more damp as she held it in her muzzle. "Trixie! Open that door, apologize to Ditzy, and give her this blueberry muffin as a sign of apology," Ellen commanded, standing at the entry to the kitchen and levitating a muffin from somewhere inside. Trixie sighed, set the folder down gently on the floor, picked the muffin up with her magic, and opened the door. She snapped to the grey pony still standing at the doorway, confused, "Sorry about that, here’s a muffin." She then levitated the muffin directly into Derpy’s mouth, muffling what she expected to be a thank you, then said, “Yes, get back to your mail delivery or whatever,” before promptly closing the door again. "Did you apologize?" questioned Ellen. "Yes, of course," she replied. "Can I open the folder now?" "All right..." came her mother’s hesitant reply. “Go ahead and open it.” Trixie snatched the folder from her mother’s hooves and opened it as quickly as her magic would let her, a single strip of paper tearing from the top before she levitated the letter out to read it. Dear Trixie Lulamoon, Congratulations! We are honored to inform you of your admission to Canterlot University of Magic. On behalf of the faculty and other members of this diverse community, we commend you on your personal and scholastic accomplishments. Furthermore, we are pleased to notify you of being awarded the 15,000-bit Dean’s Scholarship, renewable for each of your four years at Canterlot University of Magic. Congratulations again on your accomplishments in high school and your admission to Canterlot University of Magic. We give our best wishes for your continued success and look forward to seeing you on campus with us this time next year. Sincerely, Princess Mi Amore Cadenza Director of Admissions, Recruitment and Dean of Canterlot University of Magic. "Ha! Of course I was accepted! How could they not accept me, the incredibly talented and magnificently beautiful Trixie?” she gloated as her parents pointedly ignored her. On the other side of Canterlot, located in the upper-class district, was the threshold of Night Light, Twilight Velvet and their brilliant and beautiful daughter Twilight Sparkle. Twilight, while very kind and pleasant to those she met, preferred the company of herself and her books. She, like Trixie, was at the top of her class, and she, like Trixie, didn’t seem to have very many friends. Her adoptive brother, Shining Armor, and Shining Armor’s fiance, Princess Cadance, were the only ponies she really spoke with or acknowledged. This was a big day for her, just as it was for Trixie, as she was also anticipating a letter of acceptance to Canterlot University of Magic. Her young 18-year-old life was finally going to be an even bigger success than when she got accepted into Princess Celestia's School for Gifted Unicorns. "Twilight.” Her mother interrupted her thoughtful reflection. “Can you come to the den? Your father and I need to have a word with you." Twilight Velvet spoke gently, the very sound of her voice seeming to sap the tension from the room. "Yes, Mother, just a moment." Twilight trotted down from her personal library with Star Swirl the Bearded: The Compendium of Spells. She passed all of her awards and plaques showing how much she had accomplished at Princess Celestia's School for Gifted Unicorns, many of which were awarded at Canterlot Castle from Princess Celestia herself. She arrived at the den and sat in her favorite spot on the couch. "Hello Mother, hello Father. What was it you wanted to talk to me about?" She hesitated a moment, then ventured, “Am I in trouble?” She was somewhat afraid she’d been caught reading some “books” that were in the section of the public library labeled under 18+. Even though she was 18, she was still embarrassed to read them, but they were sooooooooo good. "Your Mother and I have recieved word from Cadance and Shining Armor that you have been accepted into Canterlot University of Magic!" Night Light said with excitement in his voice, a grin splitting his face from ear to ear. "Is that all? I thought there would be something more important you were going to tell me," she said with an unsurprised reaction to what she just heard. She knew that she would be going there without a doubt. Why would they be telling me this? she thought. Twilight Velvet stood up and said, "You don't sound happy or even the slightest surprised about this. Did Shining armor or Cadance tell you already?" she questioned. "No. I knew for a fact that i would get into the University. I never doubted I would get in there with Cadance being Director of Admissions and Dean of the University. Additionally, my grades are the highest in history alongside some other unicorn that goes to Princess Luna's School for gifted unicorns. Therefore, I knew that I would be accepted." Twilight stated the facts calmly and matter-of-factly. After a brief shocked silence, Night Light finally volunteered his voice again. "Twilight, sweetie, we’re very proud of you. For a celebratory dinner, we are going to The Black Cello. I hear that some of the professors dine in there, so be on the lookout for them while we are there so you can get better acquainted with them. Sound good?" Twilight Sparkle lowered the book and said, "All right. I will come to see the Professors and pay attention to the music, so you’re not constantly having to ask me to stop reading and listen to Octavia or whoever’s playing... .n one condition. You must tell Cadance to place me with a roommate who is relatively close to my intellectual level. Agreed?" Both parents conversed briefly, then Twilight Velvet said, "We will tell this to Cadance, but we can’t guarantee anything." "Great! I will finish this compendium, then later tonight we can go to The Black Cello." She abruptly stood, turned on her hoof, and trotted back to her library to finish her book and prepare for an evening of socializing. Author's Note Oh man, i have a lot of faith in this, but if you have any opinions for how to improve, I'd Love to hear them in the comments and see what I can do. Edited by Scootareader A drink with Octavia and an Apple Cyder for TrixieAuthor's Note I was thinking on making a few chapters to take place before the university first day actually starts. If you have any suggestions, Grammar Nazi checks, here to arrest me for committing crimes against the New Lunar Republic, or regular comments, they are appreciated as always! *Closely Resembles Rarity's Gala Dress without the poof and more curves in the right places if you know what i mean. A Special thanks to Spectrum Shine for showing me the pictures of Twilight's Dress and LightningBass94 for showing moral support on ideas! A drink with Octavia and an Apple Cyder for Trixie The Letter had changed Trixie's life once she obtained it. Tonight her parents agreed on letting Trixie, for such a great accomplishment, finally go to the Sweet Apple Bar on the corner of Manehattan boulevard and the Dorms for Canterlot University of Magic. Her parents suggested that they use an age spell and make her twenty-one so she can have her first drink at the Sweet Apple Bar. Considering they were friends with the young owner's aunt and uncle, the owner agreed only if the spell was foal-proof. Now she had a problem, what was the dress she was going to wear to a semi-formal bar? Her favorite dress is hanging right in her closet, but is it time she wanted to add some thing more, a certain jenesequa. She looks around and sees an old hat of her's. A lavender-blue hat with stars of different colors that was just a bit too small. 'Nothing a Size spell couldn't take care of,' she thought as her horn glowed a lighter magenta. The hat started to glow and expand with a new and brighter shade on the hat with an enchantment to make it have a blue glow with direct sunlight; at night it would have a soft lavender glow. A look at the clock and an echo from downstairs comes to her ear and she hurries up with the aging spell and put on the dress. "Alright Trixie, we are ready to go. Its 7:45, are you almost done?" Ellen Lulamoon asked up stairs from the den. "Come on 'Princess Trixie', we have been waiting an hour. I'm sure that you can finish a short-term age spell in less than 20 minutes." Complained and teased Markus. She zoomed down the stairs before anyone could see her and out the door as just a flash of ruby red and magenta. "I'll meet you guys thereeeeee!!!" Trixie shouted back at the house as she galloped to the Sweet Apple Bar. *******Meanwhile at Twilight Sparkles******* 'What to wear, what to wear,' Twilight Sparkle thought. She had an assortment of dresses varying from all colors on the Cloudsdale rainbow selection. She had a BEAUTIFUL Silk dress with a Tiara that had a Gem in the shape of her Cutie mark and Semi-Burned Orange Anklets with a golden sheen, or the choice of a partial cloak/cape/dress with different blue shades of stars going from the back down to the lower hind legs with ribbons coming out the sides of the cloak/cape/dress and her Tiara that has a sheen that is enchanted to look however she wants it to. 'Maybe if can do a combination of the two?' She thinks while levitating the Tiara and Anklets. 'Let's try changing color and make them match the Cloak/dress/cape color scheme but with a twist.' She thought again while starting a color changing spell. The currently levitating accessories and Cloak/Cape/Dress change to a passive looking silk dress with a blue fade in it and the accessories having their burned look into a shimmering red with and the tiara with the lavender gem in the middle is changing to her moods color of deep green with satisfaction. "Twilight... Oh Twilight, please hurry up dear or we're going to be late for our reservation." Twilight Velvet said from the den. "Alright mother, I'll be down in a minute. Just let me finish my new dress design." Twilight Sparkle says while putting on the dress with her modifications. 'Damn, I look beautiful in this.' she thinks to herself while looking in the mirror. She trots out of her room and down the stairs into the den where her parents and Shining Armor and Cadence await her. "Shining? Cadence? What are you two doing here?" Twilight asks. "Mom and Dad invited us because they though Cadence here would let you meet one of your professors." Shining Armor spoke up and pointed his hoof to Cadence. "I'm not saying which Professor it is, but he will find you while you are off guard. This way he will see you while your either relaxed or tensed up. I'm sure that you will come to like him. Though you might like his niece, Rarity better; she is going to be there because she wants to meet me. You might find her to your liking because she is the most intelligent pony in all of Ponyville and she got accepted into the University. She may even become a friend of yours." Cadence said with a joyous look. "If I may interject here, but we are running late so I suggest that we get a move on," Night light interjects and leads them to the door. *******An hour later at the Sweet Apple Bar******* "Lulamoon, Party of 3, your table is ready." The waitress said on the intercom and showed the Lulamoon's to their table. "Alright mother and father, I'm going to the bar and ordering an Apple Cyder for me, care for anything?" Trixie said in her Lavender wizard hat and Ruby red dress.* "Nothing for me, dear. Markus?" Ellen clearly stated. "Err, um, get me a Cloudsdale supreme with an extra shot of Vodka." Markus said while looking at Ellen with a seductive expression. "Alright Father, at least 'Do the Dirty' once i leave and drown those images out of my mind with an Apple Cyder." Trixie said and following up with a disgusted shutter. She turned towards the bar and trotted to an open seat in front of a bartender who looked no older than she was. She had an blonde mane and orange fur with three apples as her cutie mark and a black tie that had the her name tag. The tag was smudged and the mare had noticed that Trixie was staring with an observant look. "Can ah help you, Miss?" The orange mare questioned. "Uh..." Trixie zoned out and zones back in, "Sorry about that but you remind me of someone that my parents have a picture of with her aunt and uncle Orange." "Wait, by 'ny chance 're ya Trixie Lulamoon, daughter of Markus Lulamoon?" The Bartender asked. " Why, yes. Yes i am, why ask?" Trixie asked wondering if this was good or bad. "Ah thought ya looked like him. Ah'm AppleJack. Ah own this bar and the Oranges 're mah relatives out there in Manehattan. Mah Uncle and yer father go way back if ah remember correctly." AppleJack Introduced. "Oh, your the owner of this bar. My parents told me I'd meet you and said that you were fine with me using an age spell to-" she was cut off by AppleJack hoof put in her mouth. "Keep quiet 'bout that. Only ah know about this and ah'm takin' an awful big risk by just allowin' you to be here. So cut down on th' chatter about this here aging spell of yers. So what would ya like ta drink?" AppleJack removed her hoof from Trixie's mouth and she spit into a napkin that was nearby. "The hoof in the mouth was uncalled for, but I'll take an Apple Cyder for me and for my," She shudders," father, a Cloudsdale supreme with an extra shot of vodka imported from the zebra homeland. Can you send his to him, i want to stay away from him while I'm drinking. If its no trouble." she had an exhausted look once she talked about her father. AppleJack looked around and saw Markus and Ellen reading the menu. "Alright sugarcube, ah'm fine with it. We can get to know one another better and become more friendly like towards each other. Not th' bad way, but as like, y'know friends and stuff like that, y'know what ah'm saying?" "Thank you for doing that, and i did not know where you were going with the middle of that statement and now i get it. I guess we could be more towards friends." Trixie beamed at Applejack. "Let's getcha started on yer first Cyder. On th' house and ah'm not goin easy on ya, this will get ya hammered. An' just to help ya, i'll join you in this here drinking experience. Mah shift is over now so allons-er as them french ponies say!" Applejack said while pouring 100-proof Cyder into two wine glasses. Trixie proposes a toast, "To me going into the university and our friendship." "To ya going to th' university and our lastin' friendship." Applejack said before chugging the entire wine glass. *******Meanwhile at The Black Cello******* "Let me see... Night Light.... Night Light... Ah Mr.Night light, Right this way." the waiter said and led them to a table for five. He gave each of them a menu and walked away. "Father, since Miss Octavia is on break, I'm going to talk to her for a while. I already know what I want, so just call me over when the waiter comes back, okay?" Twilight Sparkle says and then trots over to the bar where Octavia was sitting with her Mafia Octavia beverage. "Hello Miss Octavia, it has been awhile," Twilight greets Octavia "Ah Twilight, such a pleasure to see you as it always is. Have you come to see my show or try to hit on me again with the "How big is that Cello bow" and "Has it ever been used for more than just musical purposes" hahaha." Octavia laughs and teases while Twilight starts to blush over the things she said in the past when she first got hammered. "No, afraid not, I was going to tell you that I am getting accepted into the University of Magic and my parents wanted to take me somewhere and i suggested your restaurant. So that is how i got here." Twilight said with some boredom behind her voice. "Well congratulations Twilight, I'm so proud of you. I bet your going to experiment like i did back in my University Days and settle down with a mare as wild as Vinyl perhaps; or be like Lyra and find a gentle but sweet mare like Bon Bon? Octavia chuckled while going through some old memories of those old days. "No, probably not but I am going to complete my studies and become the high wizard like Star Swirl the Bearded. On the side probably find a stallion to settle down with." Twilight assures Octavia who is not paying attention. "What.. Uh .. Yeah getting high and becoming a wizard got it. Well if you do want to find a good starting way to experiment, you know where to find me or Lyra." Octavia says coming back into reality. A White mare with a Beautiful Mane trots up to Octavia as if she were her friend. 'I wonder if they are friends, perhaps one from her home in Ponyville?' Twilight Ponders while Octavia and the mare talk. "Oh Twilight, where are my manners, Twilight this is my friend Rarity. She owns a boutique in Ponyville and is the Creator of my bow tie. She is closing for a few years so that she can attend the University too. Isn't that Great, I have two friends that are going to the University." Octavia says with glee. Twilight looks at the mare who looks at her like she is full of beauty and potential. "Hi, I'm Twilight Sparkle." "Hello Twilight, I am Rarity. I have heard a lot about you and you seem like a very high class mare with a friendly attitude. I'm pleasured to make your acquaintance." Rarity spoke with a observant voice with a gentle and friendly undertone. "Uhh.. Let me buy you both a drink since I own the place. You two should get better aquainted. Roco, two mafia me's for these two best friends. I Need to go back on now, i will leave you to it. Have fun you two." Octavia Smiled and trotted back up the stage with her Cello and started playing a personal song. "Well, since we are going to see each other more, lets just become friends now, shall we?" Rarity said while holding her Mafia up in the air with her magic proposing a toast. 'Eh what the tartarus', "To New friends and The University." Twilight said while Rarity repeated and started drinking. 'Maybe this won't be so bad at all.' Twilight Thought as she turned her attention to Octavia playing her cello and started drinking too. Meet Th' Super Duper ProfessersThree days after getting hammered, both Twilight and Trixie have been waiting for a meeting with their teachers. But first, they have a get together with each of their friends. In the Canterlot Palace Gardens, Trixie is Trotting along on this beautiful day with her friend Applejack. "Ah wish that th' gardens had more apple trees. Ah know that ah grew up 'round em, but would it kill Celestia t' put some Apple trees down. If mah brother was 'ere he'd probably 'gree with me 'nd say ‘Eeyup’." Applejack complained and Trixie laughed at here friends wants. "If any of this were for more than just exotic creatures that cannot be found in Equestria, I'm sure that she would have an entire field devoted to apple trees. I could be wrong though." Trixie says while wandering to a bench and sitting on it and Applejack following close behind. Applejack sits next to her and speaks up,"Ah don' wanna talk 'bout this 'ny more. It makes me homesick. Let's talk 'bout what yer gonna do when yah get to th' university. 'Re yah gonna meet yer professers* 'ny time soon? Or meet 'em when yer on yer first day?" Trixie thought for a moment and then said, "I'm debating on whether or not I want to go with or without my parents. I know my father will do all he can in his power to embarrass me, but my mother knows how to stop him every now and again. I don't know. If I do, hopefully this will be one of the times that she stops dad. If not, I will not know if these professors are good. That is one reason why my father embarrassed me in front of my academy teachers and if they laughed, they were ones that had both a good sense of humor and very good teachers. He has never been wrong yet." Applejack snickered because she already knew the answer, "Ah think that ya already have th' answer yer lookin' fer." Trixie thought for another moment and face-hoofed, "It was that simple?...I AM A DUMBPLOT!!!!! " She yelled and some of the royal guards looked at her and went back to post. "Now, Now. Ya don' need ta git all wound up on some little missed thought. Ah mean seriously, you didn't need t' use foul language." Applejack said with a disapproved look and then laughed a bit. "Alright, I guess your right. But I’m going to go through this experience on my own. Well, I'll ask them if they want to come with me. Goodbye Applejack, I'll catch you later." Trixie said as she was leaving the park and trotted towards her home. Back at the Black Cello for more time with Octavia, Twilight was having a conversation with Octavia and Rarity about what had happened three days ago. Each word Octavia says she starts to laugh more, and Twilight and Rarity's faces go from the natural coat color to apple red. "And then, once you got to your third drink, you twilight started to walk up on the stage and started to yell 'Let's get this party started. DJ, Turn on some DJ Pon-3 and just to get Octavia in the mood. Rarity you should hop on up her and shake that flank off. Everypony, this is my new friend Rarity. She is the most awesomest pony I have ever known!' Awww man that was awesome. I didn't think you were a lightweight Twilight, you either Rarity." Octavia snickered over the dinner from a couple days ago. "No way I have said any of that, I have more control than that. I am NOT a Lightweight. I'm not sure about Rarity though." Twilight debated and pointed a hoof toward Rarity. "Rarity, are you one or not?" "I-I am not sure if I am, but I'm taking Octavia's word for it. I am a lightweight. I have to face the facts." Rarity admitted defeat and looked down in shame. "HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH," Octavia laughed in both a winning expression and an overlord manner. "The Melody is always right. MUHAHAHAHAHAHA!" "Hey Octy, what's so funny? And why wasn't invited to the restaurant last night?", Said a White mare with an Electric blue mane and purple sunglasses. Octavia looked to the door and saw her filly friend, Vinyl Scratch, trotting inside. Vinyl came over to Octavia and said, "Hey Octy, Guess what?" Vinyl raised her hoof and booped Octavia on the nose, "Boop. Heh heh." Octavia facehoofed. "Ugh. Twilight, Rarity, This is my filly friend Vinyl." Octavia turns and nuzzles Vinyl's muzzle. "You annoy me Vinyl, yes, But I love you anyway." "You gotta love me, if you didn't then who would make you have some sweet, sweet scr-mrph!" Vinyl said as Octavia throwing her hoof in her muzzle. "Vinyl, we have talked about this, we do NOT talk about our sex life in public. Now please, if you are done, introduce yourself to my friends here." Octavia takes her hoof out and points it to Rarity and Twilight. "Sup, i'm DJ Pon-3, my friends and Octy call me Vinyl or DJ." She extends her right hoof in order to shake with one. Twilight speaks up first, "Hello Vinyl, I'm Twilight Sparkle. I'm pleasured to make your friend." She extends her hoof and shakes with Vinyl and she shakes back. Rarity comes forth and introduces herself, "Hello, Miss Scratch, I am Rarity. Lead fashion designer and creator of Octavia's bow tie. Pleasure to become your acquaintance." She extends her hoof and Vinyl retracts hers and frowns. "Shame, I was hoping to make another friend. But instead, I've gained an acquaintance." Rarity drops her smile and starts to feel a cold shoulder from Vinyl. "Psych, hahahhahaha! Man Octy, why do all of your friends fall for that one? Loosen up kid I'm messing with ya!" She smiles and shakes her hoof with a welcoming smile and Rarity smiles back. “So youngsters, your both going to the university, huh? I was asked to go there, but as you can see I chose to go to Manehattan. I probably would have done better than her," she points at Octavia, "If I went to the University of magic.” Vinyl says and as a result Octavia punched Vinyl’s back. “What? I was kidding, nopony could ever replace you. Your the one and only for this mare, and that’s a simple fact.” Octavia smiled and rubbed her back. “If I may interject here, does anypony know what time it is?” Twilight interjects. All other mares look to the old clock. “It’s, 2:45 pm. Darling.” Rarity says. “Oh no, nononononono! I have to go home and get Cadence to go to the Orientation to the professors. It was nice to meet you Vinyl, and goodbye Tavi.” Twilight gallops out the door home. “She’s a fun mare, Octy you need to invite her to our next li-” Vinyl is stopped by another hoof from Octavia. “Will you shut up, she has a crush on me when she’s drunk, I don’t want her to have fun with us and Lyra and Bon Bon. And you really need to clean your mouth too, its as if their had been hooves in it.” Octavia snickers. The DJ rolls her eyes. Rarity sighed and left. 5:00 Trixie, University of Magic Teacher One: Professor Lefit Class: One Field of Study: Advanced Levitation Point of Origin: Prance then Manehattan “Hello Miss, let me see here, Miss Lulamoon. I am your first Professor of the day, Levi Lefit.” Prof. Lefit bows. “I see you were top of your class at Princess Luna’s Academy for Gifted Unicorns. Also that your very boastful about being top of your class, is this true?” “Trixie? Boastful? Never. I happen to be the most intelligent unicorn in the academy’s history. I am also the most voted to be successful there. Did I mention that Princess Luna herself was there to greet me and invite me to a dinner? Along with being president of the alpha club five years in a row. I’d say I have good reason to boast if I ever did.” Prof. Lefit is not amused, more of a feeling of proper manners and a high class productive pony, your basic prench pony. “Alright Miss Lulamoon, I will see you in one week.” With that, she trotted to her next student leaving Trixie standing there trying to find her next teacher. Teacher Two: Professor Chrysalis Class: Two Field of Study: Shape-shifting Point of Origin: Changeling hive south of Appleloosa Trixie trotted up to her second professor, one that all were scared to go up too, Professor Chrysalis, former Queen of Changelings. Trixie’s boastfulness and courage surpassed all who passed the former Changeling Queen and spoke to her. “Hello, I’m your second class student, Trixie Lulamoon. You must be Professor Chrysalis,” Trixie extends a hoof, “Pleasure to meet you.” Prof. Chrysalis shook it and smiled. “It’s good to see that some ponies think that not all changelings are bad, anymore. I’m glad to have you in my class, you already seem like an intelligent and refined mare with your presence. I’ve heard great things about you. It will be an honor to teach one with such high intelligence and gifts. Might I add, you look very... Dashing with your mane in those colors I bet you would look better in a Wizard hat..” Her last words came out like silk and then she winked. Trixie uncomfortably spoke up. “U-uh, ahem, yes I do look forward to joining your class, and yes, I'm flattered and i do have a wizard hat. But now i will carry on to my next teacher and i’ll be sure to have a good day and you should, uh too?” She backs aways slowly with chrysalis watching her and licking her lips. Trixie gulps. Teacher Three: Professor Newton Class: Three Field of Study: Physics and History of Magic Point of Origin: Unknown Trixie trotted around more and tried to find her next and final Professor. She was looking for a brown with a white mane stallion that seemed to be in his mid thirties to early forties. Tried as she must, she couldn’t find him. He found her. She was on her last checks to find him but she turned around and saw a stallion, he was right next to her and frightened her. “Oh, sorry miss, I just noticed you looking around and I was wondering what for. Was it because you discovered a way to use your magic without its aurora, or how to use levitation on ponies without anypony noticing? If so, please do tell me.” Trixie straightened her mane out and looked at the stallion. ‘He seems very observant, even though he is way off. Fits the description of the Professor. Could he be?’ Trixie stood up and looked at him. “Well, its fine. By any chance are you, Professor Newton? If so, why were you following me?” Trixie relaxed after her questions. “Yes, allow me to introduce myself.” He bows. “I am Professor Isaac Newton, Lead professor in Physics and history of magic. I was following you to see how your emotions change fairly fast from when you went to Professor Chrysalis to looking for me. It’s quite the amusement of my day, so far. Let me guess, your Trixie Lulamoon of Trottingham. You left there when you were accepted into Princess Luna’s Academy for Gifted Unicorns. Top of your class and President of the Alpha club for five years in a row.” Trixie was astonished. “How did you-” She was cut off by the professor. “For each of my students, I do research on them and while you were with Chrissy, I heard some of the conversation. See you on Monday.” He smiles and trots away. Trixie stares at him as he leaves. ‘What a peculiar pony.’ With that, she left waiting for Monday to come and on Sunday, her room assignment. 5:00 Twilight and Cadence Teacher One: Professor Pie Class:Two Field of Study: Divination Point of Origin: Rock Farm, then Ponyville Twilight followed Cadence through the crowd to a pink earth pony. ‘Earth pony? There must be some kind of mistake. Why would there be an Earth pony here? Maybe she was lost?’ Twilight thought as the pink mare’s tail twitched. The mare hopped, skipped, and jumped over to Twilight moving her out of the way as a light bulb was dropped from the ceiling by a clumsy Grey Pegasus. “Sorry, I just don’t know what went wrong.” The Pegasus flew down and cleaned up the mess. “It’s fine, nopony was hurt.” the earth pony gasps. “Maybe we should throw a nopony was hurt party, what do you say?” She asks Twilight. “Um uh.” Cadence drew closer. “No need for that Professor Pie, this is Twilight Sparkle, she is your second class student. Twilight, this is Professor Pinkie Pie, she specializes in divination. From what you just experienced from her saving you from a light bulb, her body reacts before she does. She is the only one and for her class, you merely study her reactions.” Twilight sighed. “Hello Professor Pie i-” she was interrupted by pie. “uh uh, Just call me Pinkie Pie.” Twilight twitched and restarted. “Hello Pinkie pie, I’m Twilight Sparkle I’ll be in your second class. I hope to make this... Experience as interesting as it can. Even when the other students and I are studying you.” Cadence rolled her eyes with the amount of sarcasm used on that sentence. “Okey dokey lokey, see you on Monday.” Pinkie smiled with a squee and hopped away. “She defiantly is...” Twilight tried to think of a word. “Something is what I say, and she is a very nice pony otherwise.” Cadence implied and then forced a stare upon Twilight. “and if I ever hear that you make her sad or her hair go flat, you will be kicked out of this school faster than the speed of love.” Cadence's warm smile returned with a horrified Twilight nodding her head. Teacher Two: Professor Newton Class: Three Field of Study: Physics and Magic History Point of Origin: Unknown "Now, your next professor is Prof. Newton. Brown unicorn, white mane." Cadence looked and mentioned characteristics. "Handsome, elegant, full of life? I wouldn't say all that princess, but you certainly are a flatterer." Twilight jumped at the new voice. "Hm? Oh professor you kidder, you need to stop doing that, its been what, ten years since you were hired and you still do this to the deans?" He stepped back, "Well your not as fun as Chrysalis." he pouts. "Um, excuse me! What are you both taking about and who are you?" Twilight tried not to be rude. "Ah yes, professor, introduce yourself." Cadence backs down. "Salutations! I am Professor Newton, physicist and leader in magic history. You must be Miss Twilight Sparkle, am I correct?" She cleared her throat, "Nice to meet you professor. I am, indeed, Twilight Sparkle and I am in yo-" she had a brown hoof in her mouth. "My third class of the day from 4:30 to 6:45 P.M. and are trying to major in magic history. You were president of the Alpha club as another pony I have was. Perfect grades from acceptance to graduation. Daughter of Night light and Twilight Velvet. Sister of the captain of the royal guard and soon to be sister-in-law to Princess Cadenza here." “How did you-” “She tells me everything, we are like bronies, but she is a mare so we are like brony and pegasister. No reference intended, that means you!” He looks at blank space. “What are you looking at?” she and cadence looked around. “Oh nothing, just saying hi to the people Lyra worships.” he waves a hoof. Cadence facehoofs, “You are just as bad as her, now lets move on. Oh look, an anomaly around a blue unicorn” He jerks his head around, “Where!?” he runs around “That should keep him busy for awhile. Now lets go meet your final teacher” Twilight nods, still pondering on this peculiar pony. Teacher Three: Professor D’Wonka Class: One Field of study: Alchemy/Chemistry Point of Origin: Las Pegasus “Come one, Come all! For my latest discovery! I call it, Chocolate!” A yellow unicorn with a dirty blonde and a purple top-hat cutie mark, levitated little cubes of his invention to many ponies surrounding him. “Mmm!” The crowd replied with the chocolate in there mouths. Twilight saw the floating brown cube and tried it. Immediately, her eyes went wide and smiled. “Oh my Celestia this is Delicious!” She grabbed more with her magic, shoving one cube in her mouth at a time. “Hmhm! I see D’Wonka has made, yet another delicious creation. Twilight, this wonderful stall- Twilight?” Cadence stared at Twilight. She was jumping up and down eating more and more chocolate. “THISSTUFFISSOWONDERFUL! THEYNEEDTOPUTTHISONTHEMARKETANDOTHERPPLACESANDINMYSTOMACH!” Cadence facehoofed and smiled. “Calm down, Twilight. Once you meet Professor D’Wonka, you may eat more.” Twilight nodded vigorously and used her magic to teleport the cubes to her bedroom. Cadence stepped up to clear the crowd, confronting D’Wonka. He glanced at her. “Well, hello Princess Cadence! What can I do for you on this fine evening? Care for some Chocolate?” He smiled and presented a platter of chocolate to her. “No, I’m fine D’Wonka. Thank you for the offer, but what I need to talk to you about is my soon-to-be sister-in-law, Twilight Sparkle. Twilight, please come here.” she waited. “Any moment now....” No Twilight yet. “Any second... Ugh! TWILIGHT SPARKLE!!!!” Twilight was stuffing her face with the chocolate. D’Wonka broke out a large grin. “I’m guessing my largest consumer is your soon-to-be sister-in-law? I can tell you, I like her already!” He used a chocolate cube and baited her to the meeting. “I got you a chocolate!” He raises it from her and drops it repeatedly until she is with the party of two. She stops at the group sitting obediently. “Good girl, who wants another?” He gives her another and she jumps up and eats it. Cadence gave a shrug to D’Wonka’s smug grin. “Now, we are all here. Twilight, this is Professor Willy D’Wonka! My favorite, and the best inventor of sweets in all of Equestria!” “Now now Cadence, you flatter me. I’m just a regular ol’ unicorn. Nothing special other than a special talent for chemicals and compounds. Nothing much.” “And a taste for food I wish to marry!” Twilight rubbed against him, smelling for more chocolate. “Alright, alright, but still. I will see you then and let you catch up with your other students. Come along, Twilight.” She levitated Twilight out of the building. “Calm down twilight, I will get you more. On Monday.” Twilight whimpered and stopped struggling. Author's Note Ah, Nothing like making people wait for a chapter and feeling bad while waiting for inspiration.

The Letters that Changed it AllHummingbirds hummed, Celestia's Sun shined, and the fresh morning air passed through the great city of Canterlot to an average household of respected unicorns. The Lulamoons were highly respected in this society and known for their brilliant daughter Trixie. Known for being an accelerated learner in Princess Luna's Academy for Gifted Unicorns, the sister school to Princess Celestia's School for Gifted Unicorns, she incessantly made the highest marks of her class; she also wasn’t shy to boast about it. She tapped her hoof impatiently, waiting for the mail-pony to arrive with the letter that would change her life forever. She let out an impatient snort. "Where are Ditzy Doo and the mail? I've been waiting for days now," she lamented to nopony. "Be patient, dear. I'm sure she is just stopping for a muffin, as is her custom," cooed her mother, Ellen. "But she’s always late... Even today, the most important day of my life. The day that I get to see if I was accepted into Canterlot University of Magic." She did her best to sound pitiful, but couldn’t hide the streak of arrogance from her voice. She was certain she was getting accepted. Her mother only rolled her eyes, but her father took the bait. "What’s wrong princess? Is the mail-pony upsetting you?" Markus asked very seriously. "If she’s causing my little Trixie undue stress, I’ll have her job freed up by the weekend—” "FATHER! Will you be quiet? I want to see Ditzy and not have you scare her muffins all over my mail... again." Markus stared blankly at his daughter for a moment, as if uncomprehending that she had just rebuked him. He then promptly seemed to forget about it, turning his attention elsewhere and earning another eye-roll from his wife. Down the street, Ditzy was taking her last bites on the moist, chewy, and delicious blueberry muffin from Bon Bon's Bakery on 12th and Faust. She scrambled through her mail bag to see who was next. "Hmmm, let’s see here...” she muttered as she stared at the mail with one of her eyes. Her other eye seemed to stare at her empty plate, as if mourning the loss of another delicious muffin. “Aha, here we go... This is to Miss Trixie Lulamoon of 1220 Lunar Boulevard." A few ponies’ ears twitched in feigned disinterest, their gossip senses tingling. She flapped her wings weakly, causing her to hover a short distance above the ground, as she traveled to the marked location on her city map, when a nearby muffin cart suddenly made her hungrier for more of her favorite treat. A few dozen muffins later, she finally arrived at the Lulamoon household. Staring longingly out the window, Trixie finally spotted Ditzy with a muffin and a manila folder with the Canterlot University of Magic seal on it and leapt to her hooves in excitement. She galloped to the front door and counted down the seconds until Ditzy would arrive. "20... 19... 18... 17... 16... 15... 14..." she rambles on down the number line. "5... 4... 3... 2... 1... 0!" she screamed the final number and wrenched the door open before Ditzy could even bring her hoof up to knock. "Hello there, Miss Trixie Lulamoon! I have some mail for you toda-," Derpy began, but was interrupted by Trixie’s snatching muzzle and a subsequent slamming of the door in her face. Trixie’s eyes shone gleefully, darting back and forth for a place to open the manila folder, the sensitive document slowly becoming more damp as she held it in her muzzle. "Trixie! Open that door, apologize to Ditzy, and give her this blueberry muffin as a sign of apology," Ellen commanded, standing at the entry to the kitchen and levitating a muffin from somewhere inside. Trixie sighed, set the folder down gently on the floor, picked the muffin up with her magic, and opened the door. She snapped to the grey pony still standing at the doorway, confused, "Sorry about that, here’s a muffin." She then levitated the muffin directly into Derpy’s mouth, muffling what she expected to be a thank you, then said, “Yes, get back to your mail delivery or whatever,” before promptly closing the door again. "Did you apologize?" questioned Ellen. "Yes, of course," she replied. "Can I open the folder now?" "All right..." came her mother’s hesitant reply. “Go ahead and open it.” Trixie snatched the folder from her mother’s hooves and opened it as quickly as her magic would let her, a single strip of paper tearing from the top before she levitated the letter out to read it. Dear Trixie Lulamoon, Congratulations! We are honored to inform you of your admission to Canterlot University of Magic. On behalf of the faculty and other members of this diverse community, we commend you on your personal and scholastic accomplishments. Furthermore, we are pleased to notify you of being awarded the 15,000-bit Dean’s Scholarship, renewable for each of your four years at Canterlot University of Magic. Congratulations again on your accomplishments in high school and your admission to Canterlot University of Magic. We give our best wishes for your continued success and look forward to seeing you on campus with us this time next year. Sincerely, Princess Mi Amore Cadenza Director of Admissions, Recruitment and Dean of Canterlot University of Magic. "Ha! Of course I was accepted! How could they not accept me, the incredibly talented and magnificently beautiful Trixie?” she gloated as her parents pointedly ignored her. On the other side of Canterlot, located in the upper-class district, was the threshold of Night Light, Twilight Velvet and their brilliant and beautiful daughter Twilight Sparkle. Twilight, while very kind and pleasant to those she met, preferred the company of herself and her books. She, like Trixie, was at the top of her class, and she, like Trixie, didn’t seem to have very many friends. Her adoptive brother, Shining Armor, and Shining Armor’s fiance, Princess Cadance, were the only ponies she really spoke with or acknowledged. This was a big day for her, just as it was for Trixie, as she was also anticipating a letter of acceptance to Canterlot University of Magic. Her young 18-year-old life was finally going to be an even bigger success than when she got accepted into Princess Celestia's School for Gifted Unicorns. "Twilight.” Her mother interrupted her thoughtful reflection. “Can you come to the den? Your father and I need to have a word with you." Twilight Velvet spoke gently, the very sound of her voice seeming to sap the tension from the room. "Yes, Mother, just a moment." Twilight trotted down from her personal library with Star Swirl the Bearded: The Compendium of Spells. She passed all of her awards and plaques showing how much she had accomplished at Princess Celestia's School for Gifted Unicorns, many of which were awarded at Canterlot Castle from Princess Celestia herself. She arrived at the den and sat in her favorite spot on the couch. "Hello Mother, hello Father. What was it you wanted to talk to me about?" She hesitated a moment, then ventured, “Am I in trouble?” She was somewhat afraid she’d been caught reading some “books” that were in the section of the public library labeled under 18+. Even though she was 18, she was still embarrassed to read them, but they were sooooooooo good. "Your Mother and I have recieved word from Cadance and Shining Armor that you have been accepted into Canterlot University of Magic!" Night Light said with excitement in his voice, a grin splitting his face from ear to ear. "Is that all? I thought there would be something more important you were going to tell me," she said with an unsurprised reaction to what she just heard. She knew that she would be going there without a doubt. Why would they be telling me this? she thought. Twilight Velvet stood up and said, "You don't sound happy or even the slightest surprised about this. Did Shining armor or Cadance tell you already?" she questioned. "No. I knew for a fact that i would get into the University. I never doubted I would get in there with Cadance being Director of Admissions and Dean of the University. Additionally, my grades are the highest in history alongside some other unicorn that goes to Princess Luna's School for gifted unicorns. Therefore, I knew that I would be accepted." Twilight stated the facts calmly and matter-of-factly. After a brief shocked silence, Night Light finally volunteered his voice again. "Twilight, sweetie, we’re very proud of you. For a celebratory dinner, we are going to The Black Cello. I hear that some of the professors dine in there, so be on the lookout for them while we are there so you can get better acquainted with them. Sound good?" Twilight Sparkle lowered the book and said, "All right. I will come to see the Professors and pay attention to the music, so you’re not constantly having to ask me to stop reading and listen to Octavia or whoever’s playing... .n one condition. You must tell Cadance to place me with a roommate who is relatively close to my intellectual level. Agreed?" Both parents conversed briefly, then Twilight Velvet said, "We will tell this to Cadance, but we can’t guarantee anything." "Great! I will finish this compendium, then later tonight we can go to The Black Cello." She abruptly stood, turned on her hoof, and trotted back to her library to finish her book and prepare for an evening of socializing.

A drink with Octavia and an Apple Cyder for TrixieAuthor's Note I was thinking on making a few chapters to take place before the university first day actually starts. If you have any suggestions, Grammar Nazi checks, here to arrest me for committing crimes against the New Lunar Republic, or regular comments, they are appreciated as always! *Closely Resembles Rarity's Gala Dress without the poof and more curves in the right places if you know what i mean. A Special thanks to Spectrum Shine for showing me the pictures of Twilight's Dress and LightningBass94 for showing moral support on ideas! A drink with Octavia and an Apple Cyder for Trixie The Letter had changed Trixie's life once she obtained it. Tonight her parents agreed on letting Trixie, for such a great accomplishment, finally go to the Sweet Apple Bar on the corner of Manehattan boulevard and the Dorms for Canterlot University of Magic. Her parents suggested that they use an age spell and make her twenty-one so she can have her first drink at the Sweet Apple Bar. Considering they were friends with the young owner's aunt and uncle, the owner agreed only if the spell was foal-proof. Now she had a problem, what was the dress she was going to wear to a semi-formal bar? Her favorite dress is hanging right in her closet, but is it time she wanted to add some thing more, a certain jenesequa. She looks around and sees an old hat of her's. A lavender-blue hat with stars of different colors that was just a bit too small. 'Nothing a Size spell couldn't take care of,' she thought as her horn glowed a lighter magenta. The hat started to glow and expand with a new and brighter shade on the hat with an enchantment to make it have a blue glow with direct sunlight; at night it would have a soft lavender glow. A look at the clock and an echo from downstairs comes to her ear and she hurries up with the aging spell and put on the dress. "Alright Trixie, we are ready to go. Its 7:45, are you almost done?" Ellen Lulamoon asked up stairs from the den. "Come on 'Princess Trixie', we have been waiting an hour. I'm sure that you can finish a short-term age spell in less than 20 minutes." Complained and teased Markus. She zoomed down the stairs before anyone could see her and out the door as just a flash of ruby red and magenta. "I'll meet you guys thereeeeee!!!" Trixie shouted back at the house as she galloped to the Sweet Apple Bar. *******Meanwhile at Twilight Sparkles******* 'What to wear, what to wear,' Twilight Sparkle thought. She had an assortment of dresses varying from all colors on the Cloudsdale rainbow selection. She had a BEAUTIFUL Silk dress with a Tiara that had a Gem in the shape of her Cutie mark and Semi-Burned Orange Anklets with a golden sheen, or the choice of a partial cloak/cape/dress with different blue shades of stars going from the back down to the lower hind legs with ribbons coming out the sides of the cloak/cape/dress and her Tiara that has a sheen that is enchanted to look however she wants it to. 'Maybe if can do a combination of the two?' She thinks while levitating the Tiara and Anklets. 'Let's try changing color and make them match the Cloak/dress/cape color scheme but with a twist.' She thought again while starting a color changing spell. The currently levitating accessories and Cloak/Cape/Dress change to a passive looking silk dress with a blue fade in it and the accessories having their burned look into a shimmering red with and the tiara with the lavender gem in the middle is changing to her moods color of deep green with satisfaction. "Twilight... Oh Twilight, please hurry up dear or we're going to be late for our reservation." Twilight Velvet said from the den. "Alright mother, I'll be down in a minute. Just let me finish my new dress design." Twilight Sparkle says while putting on the dress with her modifications. 'Damn, I look beautiful in this.' she thinks to herself while looking in the mirror. She trots out of her room and down the stairs into the den where her parents and Shining Armor and Cadence await her. "Shining? Cadence? What are you two doing here?" Twilight asks. "Mom and Dad invited us because they though Cadence here would let you meet one of your professors." Shining Armor spoke up and pointed his hoof to Cadence. "I'm not saying which Professor it is, but he will find you while you are off guard. This way he will see you while your either relaxed or tensed up. I'm sure that you will come to like him. Though you might like his niece, Rarity better; she is going to be there because she wants to meet me. You might find her to your liking because she is the most intelligent pony in all of Ponyville and she got accepted into the University. She may even become a friend of yours." Cadence said with a joyous look. "If I may interject here, but we are running late so I suggest that we get a move on," Night light interjects and leads them to the door. *******An hour later at the Sweet Apple Bar******* "Lulamoon, Party of 3, your table is ready." The waitress said on the intercom and showed the Lulamoon's to their table. "Alright mother and father, I'm going to the bar and ordering an Apple Cyder for me, care for anything?" Trixie said in her Lavender wizard hat and Ruby red dress.* "Nothing for me, dear. Markus?" Ellen clearly stated. "Err, um, get me a Cloudsdale supreme with an extra shot of Vodka." Markus said while looking at Ellen with a seductive expression. "Alright Father, at least 'Do the Dirty' once i leave and drown those images out of my mind with an Apple Cyder." Trixie said and following up with a disgusted shutter. She turned towards the bar and trotted to an open seat in front of a bartender who looked no older than she was. She had an blonde mane and orange fur with three apples as her cutie mark and a black tie that had the her name tag. The tag was smudged and the mare had noticed that Trixie was staring with an observant look. "Can ah help you, Miss?" The orange mare questioned. "Uh..." Trixie zoned out and zones back in, "Sorry about that but you remind me of someone that my parents have a picture of with her aunt and uncle Orange." "Wait, by 'ny chance 're ya Trixie Lulamoon, daughter of Markus Lulamoon?" The Bartender asked. " Why, yes. Yes i am, why ask?" Trixie asked wondering if this was good or bad. "Ah thought ya looked like him. Ah'm AppleJack. Ah own this bar and the Oranges 're mah relatives out there in Manehattan. Mah Uncle and yer father go way back if ah remember correctly." AppleJack Introduced. "Oh, your the owner of this bar. My parents told me I'd meet you and said that you were fine with me using an age spell to-" she was cut off by AppleJack hoof put in her mouth. "Keep quiet 'bout that. Only ah know about this and ah'm takin' an awful big risk by just allowin' you to be here. So cut down on th' chatter about this here aging spell of yers. So what would ya like ta drink?" AppleJack removed her hoof from Trixie's mouth and she spit into a napkin that was nearby. "The hoof in the mouth was uncalled for, but I'll take an Apple Cyder for me and for my," She shudders," father, a Cloudsdale supreme with an extra shot of vodka imported from the zebra homeland. Can you send his to him, i want to stay away from him while I'm drinking. If its no trouble." she had an exhausted look once she talked about her father. AppleJack looked around and saw Markus and Ellen reading the menu. "Alright sugarcube, ah'm fine with it. We can get to know one another better and become more friendly like towards each other. Not th' bad way, but as like, y'know friends and stuff like that, y'know what ah'm saying?" "Thank you for doing that, and i did not know where you were going with the middle of that statement and now i get it. I guess we could be more towards friends." Trixie beamed at Applejack. "Let's getcha started on yer first Cyder. On th' house and ah'm not goin easy on ya, this will get ya hammered. An' just to help ya, i'll join you in this here drinking experience. Mah shift is over now so allons-er as them french ponies say!" Applejack said while pouring 100-proof Cyder into two wine glasses. Trixie proposes a toast, "To me going into the university and our friendship." "To ya going to th' university and our lastin' friendship." Applejack said before chugging the entire wine glass. *******Meanwhile at The Black Cello******* "Let me see... Night Light.... Night Light... Ah Mr.Night light, Right this way." the waiter said and led them to a table for five. He gave each of them a menu and walked away. "Father, since Miss Octavia is on break, I'm going to talk to her for a while. I already know what I want, so just call me over when the waiter comes back, okay?" Twilight Sparkle says and then trots over to the bar where Octavia was sitting with her Mafia Octavia beverage. "Hello Miss Octavia, it has been awhile," Twilight greets Octavia "Ah Twilight, such a pleasure to see you as it always is. Have you come to see my show or try to hit on me again with the "How big is that Cello bow" and "Has it ever been used for more than just musical purposes" hahaha." Octavia laughs and teases while Twilight starts to blush over the things she said in the past when she first got hammered. "No, afraid not, I was going to tell you that I am getting accepted into the University of Magic and my parents wanted to take me somewhere and i suggested your restaurant. So that is how i got here." Twilight said with some boredom behind her voice. "Well congratulations Twilight, I'm so proud of you. I bet your going to experiment like i did back in my University Days and settle down with a mare as wild as Vinyl perhaps; or be like Lyra and find a gentle but sweet mare like Bon Bon? Octavia chuckled while going through some old memories of those old days. "No, probably not but I am going to complete my studies and become the high wizard like Star Swirl the Bearded. On the side probably find a stallion to settle down with." Twilight assures Octavia who is not paying attention. "What.. Uh .. Yeah getting high and becoming a wizard got it. Well if you do want to find a good starting way to experiment, you know where to find me or Lyra." Octavia says coming back into reality. A White mare with a Beautiful Mane trots up to Octavia as if she were her friend. 'I wonder if they are friends, perhaps one from her home in Ponyville?' Twilight Ponders while Octavia and the mare talk. "Oh Twilight, where are my manners, Twilight this is my friend Rarity. She owns a boutique in Ponyville and is the Creator of my bow tie. She is closing for a few years so that she can attend the University too. Isn't that Great, I have two friends that are going to the University." Octavia says with glee. Twilight looks at the mare who looks at her like she is full of beauty and potential. "Hi, I'm Twilight Sparkle." "Hello Twilight, I am Rarity. I have heard a lot about you and you seem like a very high class mare with a friendly attitude. I'm pleasured to make your acquaintance." Rarity spoke with a observant voice with a gentle and friendly undertone. "Uhh.. Let me buy you both a drink since I own the place. You two should get better aquainted. Roco, two mafia me's for these two best friends. I Need to go back on now, i will leave you to it. Have fun you two." Octavia Smiled and trotted back up the stage with her Cello and started playing a personal song. "Well, since we are going to see each other more, lets just become friends now, shall we?" Rarity said while holding her Mafia up in the air with her magic proposing a toast. 'Eh what the tartarus', "To New friends and The University." Twilight said while Rarity repeated and started drinking. 'Maybe this won't be so bad at all.' Twilight Thought as she turned her attention to Octavia playing her cello and started drinking too.
Meet Th' Super Duper ProfessersThree days after getting hammered, both Twilight and Trixie have been waiting for a meeting with their teachers. But first, they have a get together with each of their friends. In the Canterlot Palace Gardens, Trixie is Trotting along on this beautiful day with her friend Applejack. "Ah wish that th' gardens had more apple trees. Ah know that ah grew up 'round em, but would it kill Celestia t' put some Apple trees down. If mah brother was 'ere he'd probably 'gree with me 'nd say ‘Eeyup’." Applejack complained and Trixie laughed at here friends wants. "If any of this were for more than just exotic creatures that cannot be found in Equestria, I'm sure that she would have an entire field devoted to apple trees. I could be wrong though." Trixie says while wandering to a bench and sitting on it and Applejack following close behind. Applejack sits next to her and speaks up,"Ah don' wanna talk 'bout this 'ny more. It makes me homesick. Let's talk 'bout what yer gonna do when yah get to th' university. 'Re yah gonna meet yer professers* 'ny time soon? Or meet 'em when yer on yer first day?" Trixie thought for a moment and then said, "I'm debating on whether or not I want to go with or without my parents. I know my father will do all he can in his power to embarrass me, but my mother knows how to stop him every now and again. I don't know. If I do, hopefully this will be one of the times that she stops dad. If not, I will not know if these professors are good. That is one reason why my father embarrassed me in front of my academy teachers and if they laughed, they were ones that had both a good sense of humor and very good teachers. He has never been wrong yet." Applejack snickered because she already knew the answer, "Ah think that ya already have th' answer yer lookin' fer." Trixie thought for another moment and face-hoofed, "It was that simple?...I AM A DUMBPLOT!!!!! " She yelled and some of the royal guards looked at her and went back to post. "Now, Now. Ya don' need ta git all wound up on some little missed thought. Ah mean seriously, you didn't need t' use foul language." Applejack said with a disapproved look and then laughed a bit. "Alright, I guess your right. But I’m going to go through this experience on my own. Well, I'll ask them if they want to come with me. Goodbye Applejack, I'll catch you later." Trixie said as she was leaving the park and trotted towards her home. Back at the Black Cello for more time with Octavia, Twilight was having a conversation with Octavia and Rarity about what had happened three days ago. Each word Octavia says she starts to laugh more, and Twilight and Rarity's faces go from the natural coat color to apple red. "And then, once you got to your third drink, you twilight started to walk up on the stage and started to yell 'Let's get this party started. DJ, Turn on some DJ Pon-3 and just to get Octavia in the mood. Rarity you should hop on up her and shake that flank off. Everypony, this is my new friend Rarity. She is the most awesomest pony I have ever known!' Awww man that was awesome. I didn't think you were a lightweight Twilight, you either Rarity." Octavia snickered over the dinner from a couple days ago. "No way I have said any of that, I have more control than that. I am NOT a Lightweight. I'm not sure about Rarity though." Twilight debated and pointed a hoof toward Rarity. "Rarity, are you one or not?" "I-I am not sure if I am, but I'm taking Octavia's word for it. I am a lightweight. I have to face the facts." Rarity admitted defeat and looked down in shame. "HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH," Octavia laughed in both a winning expression and an overlord manner. "The Melody is always right. MUHAHAHAHAHAHA!" "Hey Octy, what's so funny? And why wasn't invited to the restaurant last night?", Said a White mare with an Electric blue mane and purple sunglasses. Octavia looked to the door and saw her filly friend, Vinyl Scratch, trotting inside. Vinyl came over to Octavia and said, "Hey Octy, Guess what?" Vinyl raised her hoof and booped Octavia on the nose, "Boop. Heh heh." Octavia facehoofed. "Ugh. Twilight, Rarity, This is my filly friend Vinyl." Octavia turns and nuzzles Vinyl's muzzle. "You annoy me Vinyl, yes, But I love you anyway." "You gotta love me, if you didn't then who would make you have some sweet, sweet scr-mrph!" Vinyl said as Octavia throwing her hoof in her muzzle. "Vinyl, we have talked about this, we do NOT talk about our sex life in public. Now please, if you are done, introduce yourself to my friends here." Octavia takes her hoof out and points it to Rarity and Twilight. "Sup, i'm DJ Pon-3, my friends and Octy call me Vinyl or DJ." She extends her right hoof in order to shake with one. Twilight speaks up first, "Hello Vinyl, I'm Twilight Sparkle. I'm pleasured to make your friend." She extends her hoof and shakes with Vinyl and she shakes back. Rarity comes forth and introduces herself, "Hello, Miss Scratch, I am Rarity. Lead fashion designer and creator of Octavia's bow tie. Pleasure to become your acquaintance." She extends her hoof and Vinyl retracts hers and frowns. "Shame, I was hoping to make another friend. But instead, I've gained an acquaintance." Rarity drops her smile and starts to feel a cold shoulder from Vinyl. "Psych, hahahhahaha! Man Octy, why do all of your friends fall for that one? Loosen up kid I'm messing with ya!" She smiles and shakes her hoof with a welcoming smile and Rarity smiles back. “So youngsters, your both going to the university, huh? I was asked to go there, but as you can see I chose to go to Manehattan. I probably would have done better than her," she points at Octavia, "If I went to the University of magic.” Vinyl says and as a result Octavia punched Vinyl’s back. “What? I was kidding, nopony could ever replace you. Your the one and only for this mare, and that’s a simple fact.” Octavia smiled and rubbed her back. “If I may interject here, does anypony know what time it is?” Twilight interjects. All other mares look to the old clock. “It’s, 2:45 pm. Darling.” Rarity says. “Oh no, nononononono! I have to go home and get Cadence to go to the Orientation to the professors. It was nice to meet you Vinyl, and goodbye Tavi.” Twilight gallops out the door home. “She’s a fun mare, Octy you need to invite her to our next li-” Vinyl is stopped by another hoof from Octavia. “Will you shut up, she has a crush on me when she’s drunk, I don’t want her to have fun with us and Lyra and Bon Bon. And you really need to clean your mouth too, its as if their had been hooves in it.” Octavia snickers. The DJ rolls her eyes. Rarity sighed and left. 5:00 Trixie, University of Magic Teacher One: Professor Lefit Class: One Field of Study: Advanced Levitation Point of Origin: Prance then Manehattan “Hello Miss, let me see here, Miss Lulamoon. I am your first Professor of the day, Levi Lefit.” Prof. Lefit bows. “I see you were top of your class at Princess Luna’s Academy for Gifted Unicorns. Also that your very boastful about being top of your class, is this true?” “Trixie? Boastful? Never. I happen to be the most intelligent unicorn in the academy’s history. I am also the most voted to be successful there. Did I mention that Princess Luna herself was there to greet me and invite me to a dinner? Along with being president of the alpha club five years in a row. I’d say I have good reason to boast if I ever did.” Prof. Lefit is not amused, more of a feeling of proper manners and a high class productive pony, your basic prench pony. “Alright Miss Lulamoon, I will see you in one week.” With that, she trotted to her next student leaving Trixie standing there trying to find her next teacher. Teacher Two: Professor Chrysalis Class: Two Field of Study: Shape-shifting Point of Origin: Changeling hive south of Appleloosa Trixie trotted up to her second professor, one that all were scared to go up too, Professor Chrysalis, former Queen of Changelings. Trixie’s boastfulness and courage surpassed all who passed the former Changeling Queen and spoke to her. “Hello, I’m your second class student, Trixie Lulamoon. You must be Professor Chrysalis,” Trixie extends a hoof, “Pleasure to meet you.” Prof. Chrysalis shook it and smiled. “It’s good to see that some ponies think that not all changelings are bad, anymore. I’m glad to have you in my class, you already seem like an intelligent and refined mare with your presence. I’ve heard great things about you. It will be an honor to teach one with such high intelligence and gifts. Might I add, you look very... Dashing with your mane in those colors I bet you would look better in a Wizard hat..” Her last words came out like silk and then she winked. Trixie uncomfortably spoke up. “U-uh, ahem, yes I do look forward to joining your class, and yes, I'm flattered and i do have a wizard hat. But now i will carry on to my next teacher and i’ll be sure to have a good day and you should, uh too?” She backs aways slowly with chrysalis watching her and licking her lips. Trixie gulps. Teacher Three: Professor Newton Class: Three Field of Study: Physics and History of Magic Point of Origin: Unknown Trixie trotted around more and tried to find her next and final Professor. She was looking for a brown with a white mane stallion that seemed to be in his mid thirties to early forties. Tried as she must, she couldn’t find him. He found her. She was on her last checks to find him but she turned around and saw a stallion, he was right next to her and frightened her. “Oh, sorry miss, I just noticed you looking around and I was wondering what for. Was it because you discovered a way to use your magic without its aurora, or how to use levitation on ponies without anypony noticing? If so, please do tell me.” Trixie straightened her mane out and looked at the stallion. ‘He seems very observant, even though he is way off. Fits the description of the Professor. Could he be?’ Trixie stood up and looked at him. “Well, its fine. By any chance are you, Professor Newton? If so, why were you following me?” Trixie relaxed after her questions. “Yes, allow me to introduce myself.” He bows. “I am Professor Isaac Newton, Lead professor in Physics and history of magic. I was following you to see how your emotions change fairly fast from when you went to Professor Chrysalis to looking for me. It’s quite the amusement of my day, so far. Let me guess, your Trixie Lulamoon of Trottingham. You left there when you were accepted into Princess Luna’s Academy for Gifted Unicorns. Top of your class and President of the Alpha club for five years in a row.” Trixie was astonished. “How did you-” She was cut off by the professor. “For each of my students, I do research on them and while you were with Chrissy, I heard some of the conversation. See you on Monday.” He smiles and trots away. Trixie stares at him as he leaves. ‘What a peculiar pony.’ With that, she left waiting for Monday to come and on Sunday, her room assignment. 5:00 Twilight and Cadence Teacher One: Professor Pie Class:Two Field of Study: Divination Point of Origin: Rock Farm, then Ponyville Twilight followed Cadence through the crowd to a pink earth pony. ‘Earth pony? There must be some kind of mistake. Why would there be an Earth pony here? Maybe she was lost?’ Twilight thought as the pink mare’s tail twitched. The mare hopped, skipped, and jumped over to Twilight moving her out of the way as a light bulb was dropped from the ceiling by a clumsy Grey Pegasus. “Sorry, I just don’t know what went wrong.” The Pegasus flew down and cleaned up the mess. “It’s fine, nopony was hurt.” the earth pony gasps. “Maybe we should throw a nopony was hurt party, what do you say?” She asks Twilight. “Um uh.” Cadence drew closer. “No need for that Professor Pie, this is Twilight Sparkle, she is your second class student. Twilight, this is Professor Pinkie Pie, she specializes in divination. From what you just experienced from her saving you from a light bulb, her body reacts before she does. She is the only one and for her class, you merely study her reactions.” Twilight sighed. “Hello Professor Pie i-” she was interrupted by pie. “uh uh, Just call me Pinkie Pie.” Twilight twitched and restarted. “Hello Pinkie pie, I’m Twilight Sparkle I’ll be in your second class. I hope to make this... Experience as interesting as it can. Even when the other students and I are studying you.” Cadence rolled her eyes with the amount of sarcasm used on that sentence. “Okey dokey lokey, see you on Monday.” Pinkie smiled with a squee and hopped away. “She defiantly is...” Twilight tried to think of a word. “Something is what I say, and she is a very nice pony otherwise.” Cadence implied and then forced a stare upon Twilight. “and if I ever hear that you make her sad or her hair go flat, you will be kicked out of this school faster than the speed of love.” Cadence's warm smile returned with a horrified Twilight nodding her head. Teacher Two: Professor Newton Class: Three Field of Study: Physics and Magic History Point of Origin: Unknown "Now, your next professor is Prof. Newton. Brown unicorn, white mane." Cadence looked and mentioned characteristics. "Handsome, elegant, full of life? I wouldn't say all that princess, but you certainly are a flatterer." Twilight jumped at the new voice. "Hm? Oh professor you kidder, you need to stop doing that, its been what, ten years since you were hired and you still do this to the deans?" He stepped back, "Well your not as fun as Chrysalis." he pouts. "Um, excuse me! What are you both taking about and who are you?" Twilight tried not to be rude. "Ah yes, professor, introduce yourself." Cadence backs down. "Salutations! I am Professor Newton, physicist and leader in magic history. You must be Miss Twilight Sparkle, am I correct?" She cleared her throat, "Nice to meet you professor. I am, indeed, Twilight Sparkle and I am in yo-" she had a brown hoof in her mouth. "My third class of the day from 4:30 to 6:45 P.M. and are trying to major in magic history. You were president of the Alpha club as another pony I have was. Perfect grades from acceptance to graduation. Daughter of Night light and Twilight Velvet. Sister of the captain of the royal guard and soon to be sister-in-law to Princess Cadenza here." “How did you-” “She tells me everything, we are like bronies, but she is a mare so we are like brony and pegasister. No reference intended, that means you!” He looks at blank space. “What are you looking at?” she and cadence looked around. “Oh nothing, just saying hi to the people Lyra worships.” he waves a hoof. Cadence facehoofs, “You are just as bad as her, now lets move on. Oh look, an anomaly around a blue unicorn” He jerks his head around, “Where!?” he runs around “That should keep him busy for awhile. Now lets go meet your final teacher” Twilight nods, still pondering on this peculiar pony. Teacher Three: Professor D’Wonka Class: One Field of study: Alchemy/Chemistry Point of Origin: Las Pegasus “Come one, Come all! For my latest discovery! I call it, Chocolate!” A yellow unicorn with a dirty blonde and a purple top-hat cutie mark, levitated little cubes of his invention to many ponies surrounding him. “Mmm!” The crowd replied with the chocolate in there mouths. Twilight saw the floating brown cube and tried it. Immediately, her eyes went wide and smiled. “Oh my Celestia this is Delicious!” She grabbed more with her magic, shoving one cube in her mouth at a time. “Hmhm! I see D’Wonka has made, yet another delicious creation. Twilight, this wonderful stall- Twilight?” Cadence stared at Twilight. She was jumping up and down eating more and more chocolate. “THISSTUFFISSOWONDERFUL! THEYNEEDTOPUTTHISONTHEMARKETANDOTHERPPLACESANDINMYSTOMACH!” Cadence facehoofed and smiled. “Calm down, Twilight. Once you meet Professor D’Wonka, you may eat more.” Twilight nodded vigorously and used her magic to teleport the cubes to her bedroom. Cadence stepped up to clear the crowd, confronting D’Wonka. He glanced at her. “Well, hello Princess Cadence! What can I do for you on this fine evening? Care for some Chocolate?” He smiled and presented a platter of chocolate to her. “No, I’m fine D’Wonka. Thank you for the offer, but what I need to talk to you about is my soon-to-be sister-in-law, Twilight Sparkle. Twilight, please come here.” she waited. “Any moment now....” No Twilight yet. “Any second... Ugh! TWILIGHT SPARKLE!!!!” Twilight was stuffing her face with the chocolate. D’Wonka broke out a large grin. “I’m guessing my largest consumer is your soon-to-be sister-in-law? I can tell you, I like her already!” He used a chocolate cube and baited her to the meeting. “I got you a chocolate!” He raises it from her and drops it repeatedly until she is with the party of two. She stops at the group sitting obediently. “Good girl, who wants another?” He gives her another and she jumps up and eats it. Cadence gave a shrug to D’Wonka’s smug grin. “Now, we are all here. Twilight, this is Professor Willy D’Wonka! My favorite, and the best inventor of sweets in all of Equestria!” “Now now Cadence, you flatter me. I’m just a regular ol’ unicorn. Nothing special other than a special talent for chemicals and compounds. Nothing much.” “And a taste for food I wish to marry!” Twilight rubbed against him, smelling for more chocolate. “Alright, alright, but still. I will see you then and let you catch up with your other students. Come along, Twilight.” She levitated Twilight out of the building. “Calm down twilight, I will get you more. On Monday.” Twilight whimpered and stopped struggling. Author's Note Ah, Nothing like making people wait for a chapter and feeling bad while waiting for inspiration.
