Sunset Shimmer Becomes a Raging Frozen Fangirl
The Cold Never Bothered Her Anyway
"Because for the CENSORED CENSORED in CENSORED," Rainbow sang, opening the practice room door and walking in to begin rehearsals.
"I won't CENSORED CENSORED," Applejack completed, following a couple of paces behind her.
Sunset looked up from tuning her guitar. "Hey, is that the new song you've been working on, Rainbow? Sounding good!"
"Ha! Very funny," Rainbow chuckled.
Sunset was confused. "What?" She looked at all her friends, from one blank face to the next. "What are you staring at me like that for?"
"Ya honestly don't recognize that song?" Applejack said with a deadpan expression.
"No," Sunset answered, furrowing her eyebrows. "Should I?"
"From Frozen," Rarity offered, hoping to jog her memory.
"From frozen what?" Sunset asked, still oblivious.
"Frozen… it's a film," Applejack explained.
"Should I have heard of it?" Sunset asked.
"Well, it's only the biggest grossing animated film of all time," Rarity stated.
"Higher even than ours," Pinkie interrupted, receiving confused looks from the others.
Sunset shrugged. "Well, I've never heard of it. When did it come out?"
Nobody seemed quite sure. "2010? 2011?" people muttered.
"Ah, well, that explains it," Sunset said. "I was still in Equestria then."
"Ohhh…" everyone groaned, finally understanding her ignorance of the film.
"But still," Rarity said, "I would have expected you to have at least heard of it."
"Is it any good?" Sunset questioned.
Fluttershy suddenly grasped her arm and dragged her out of the doorway. The others looked at each other then followed.

Two hours later…
Sunset wiped a tear from her eye. "Oh. My. Celestia!"
Fluttershy smiled at her.
Sunset looked around at the other girls who had all gathered to watch it with her. "Ummm… I don't suppose…"
❄
Two hours later…
"It's even better the second time," Sunset said, openly weeping. "The foreshadowing, the songs, the characters, the feelings, the… ummm… do you think we could—"
"No!" everybody chorused.
❄
Two hours later…
"Urgh!" Rainbow sighed. "I can't believe we've all just watched Frozen three times back to back."
"Ya told me ya loved that film," Applejack said.
"Well, I do, but there's such a thing as too much Frozen."
Fluttershy and Sunset glared at Rainbow Dash.
"What? It's nearly ten o'clock! We've been watching Frozen for six hours!"
Rarity tried to broker peace by changing the subject… slightly. "So, Sunset, what's your favourite ship?"
Sunset gasped. "Kristoff and Anna!"
Applejack, Rainbow, and Rarity groaned.
"What's wrong with that?" Sunset asked.
Rarity put her hand on Sunset's knee. "Well, darling, it's a trifle unimaginative, don't you think?"
"It's canon though," Sunset responded. "Surely you can't ship her with Hans?"
"Heck no!" Applejack answered. "Elsanna OTP!"
"Els… wait what? Elsa and Anna?! But they're sisters!" Sunset complained. "You can't ship Anna with her sister."
"Whyever not, darling?" Rarity asked.
"Yeah, they're so cute together!" Applejack insisted.
Sunset furrowed her eyebrows. "Wait… don't both of you have younger sisters?"
Rarity adjusted her hair nervously. "I don't see what that has to do with anything."
Applejack blushed. "Yeah." She chuckled half heartedly. "Your point being?"
"Ummm… nothing," Sunset hastily backtracked.
Rarity yawned. "It's getting late."
Sunset and Pinkie immediately chimed in at the same time: "Sleepover!"
Fluttershy, whose house they were in was surprised, but smiled. "Oh, yes, errr, I suppose that would be okay… if you think it's a good idea, I mean."
"Frozen sleepover!" Sunset squealed excitedly.
"Just gimme a moment to call mah family," Applejack said. "Jus so's they don't worry about me."
❄
Ten minutes later…
"Makeover time!" Sunset announced with joy.
"Ah don't like the sound of this," Applejack commented.
"Oh relax," Sunset assured her. "Now sit down and let me do your hair."
❄
Half an hour later…
"So lemme guess… the plait you've given me, and the blue dress… and Pinkie Pie's plaited pigtails. Ah'm guessing you're goin' somewhere with this?"
"I don't know what you mean," Sunset said, feigning ignorance.
"I don't see why I have to be Hans," Rainbow complained. "These fake sideburns really itch."
"Swap places?" Rarity offered, adjusting her carrot nose.
Rainbow suddenly thought that being Hans was not such a bad thing. "Errr… no, that's okay."
"Well, I actually quite like my outfit," Fluttershy admitted, looking at her cute antlers in the mirror.
Sunset put her arm around Fluttershy and started thinking about how she could make herself look more like Kristoff. "That's the spirit! After all… reindeers are better than people!" She supposed that getting her hair cut short might be going too far.
Pinkie bounded up behind them. "Cosplay is fun. We should totally wear these outfits to the cinema when Frozen 2 comes out."
Sunset gasped. "Frozen… 2?!"
She disappeared from view. Pinkie turned around, saying, "hey, what happened to Sunset?" She almost tripped over Sunset's unconscious body on the floor.
"Oh my… talk about being over-dramatic," Rarity said.
Everybody (except Sunset) looked at her.
Rarity looked around in confusion. "What? What did I say?"
Author's Note
In case you were wondering (and I'm sure you weren't), these are the reasons for the cosplay choices:
Applejack — Elsa — hair
Pinkie — Anna — chocolate obsession, slight immaturity
Rarity — Olaf — skin tone
Rainbow — Hans — PinkieDash shipping
Fluttershy — Sven — animals
Sunset — Kristoff — no reason really
Anyway, this story is a birthday present for MLPFan234 who is — like Sunset Shimmer, and like me — a raging Frozen fangirl. (Except I'm not a girl, but whatever.) Please wish her happy birthday in the comments!
