Sunburst's Live Stream

Sunday afternoon arrived and it was just a few hours until Sunburst would spill his guts regarding his feelings for Starlight for all to see and if he didn't hear from her, do something completely outlandish. Throughout the day, he continued to check his account and still, Starlight had yet to accept his friend request, much less respond to his message. He threw his hands up in the air and groaned, "Ugh, do those two even get on here on weekends?" He then remembered how hockey obsessed Starlight was and continued, "Maybe she's been watching hockey. Maybe they will get on later."


At Starlight and Trixie's house, like she always does on Sunday afternoons, Starlight was screaming at the TV watching hockey while Trixie had decided to get on their computer and see what was going on on MuzzleMag. When she got on she saw that they had a friend request and would be surprised by who it was from. Not only was she surprised, but she was also worried about how Starlight would react to it so she figured she better call her in before accepting it.

Trixie yelled, "Starlight, come here! I have to show you something."

While Starlight was just as much into this game as she was others, since it was not Vanhoover playing she yelled, "Alright, just a minute!"

Starlight headed into their computer room to find Trixie on their shared account. She continued, "Trixie, what is it?"

Trixie pointed at the screen and replied, "Look who sent us a friend request."

Starlight looked and immediately her face turned red in anger. She yelled, "Can't he just listen? Doesn't he know what the word no means?"

Trixie then opened the messages and continued, "And he sent us a message as well."

Starlight read the message and grunted, "So, he wants us to watch his stupid live stream huh?" Normally Starlight would not want to even have to see his face on a computer screen but something began to cross her mind. She knelt down, groped Trixie's breasts and laughed, "You know something, perhaps we should watch it." She then gave Trixie a kiss before continuing, "We can get a laugh out of watching him pour his stupid feelings out and then go unwind."

Trixie gave her a huge smile and giggled, "That sounds like a perfect plan!"

Starlight looked at the clock and sighed, "Well it is still three hours until he makes a fool out of himself." She took the mouse and clicked accept on his friend request and continued, "There, now we can watch it."

Trixie gasped, "Can't we watch it without having to be friends with him?"

Starlight replied, "Actually no but we'll watch his live stream and then once he is finished, we'll unfriend him and move on like this never happened."

Trixie said, "Sounds like a good plan to me!"


It was five minutes until seven when Sunburst was getting everything set up for his live stream. He had got dressed in his finest clothes, he had showered and had his hair fixed just right and if it came down to it, he grabbed several detergent pods to hopefully get Starlight's attention. After noticing that Starlight had accepted his request, he decided to start the live stream.

"Hello everyone. First I would like to thank all of you who accepted my friend requests and are watching this tonight. Now I would like to get on to why I'm doing this live stream.

Starlight Glimmer, if you are watching, I want you to know that I love you, I truly love you. I'm not sure if you have ever noticed or if you are so lost in Trixie that you simply can't tell it, but I have a crush on you. I have had a crush on you ever since you moved here from Vanhoover a few years back.

I know you said on Friday that you didn't want to go to the spring formal with me or even get to know me but I'm begging you, please reconsider. I promise you that if we get to know one another and pursue a relationship, that I will treat you like a queen and we can have a truly magical night at the spring formal."

Starlight and Trixie were sitting at home in front of their computer in a state of amusement. Starlight couldn't help but laugh, "Seriously, he's doing a live stream just to tell everyone how he feels about me?"

Trixie added, "Seriously, right? I knew he was pathetic but I didn't know he was this pathetic."

Starlight gave her a kiss before saying, "Alright, let's get back to watching his whiny comedy act."

Sunburst began to sniffle a little, "Starlight, I know you were very rude to me on Friday when I approached you on Friday about going to the spring formal but even though you rejected me and you and Trixie grabbed one another's butts, that didn't lessen my love for you.

Then yesterday, I brought you a dozen roses and read a romantic poem I found online for you and you treat me worse, but my love for you still has not lessened any. I don't know if Trixie will ever always be there for you but I promise you I would. I'm begging you, just please give me a chance and you won't regret it.

Speaking of Trixie, a fellow student told me that you and Trixie are lesbians and that I should just cut my losses but I don't want to. I refuse to believe that because girls loving other girls just isn't natural, it doesn't make any sense and it is gross. Even if you two do stay together, it's not like you could ever have real sex, share the joy of having a family and raising children. The most you would get out of her is groping and other activities girls shouldn't do together."

Starlight and Trixie sat at their computer in a state of shock over what they were hearing. Trixie grunted, "Says the loser who will die a virgin."

Starlight added, "You got that right now let's see what else he is going to whine about."

Sunburst began to tear up, "Starlight, please, please give me a chance. I'll treat you better than Trixie ever could but I'm going to issue you a challenge." He held up multiple detergent pods for all to see and continued, "If you don't message me begging me not to do this and say that you want to get to know me, I'll eat these detergent pods and if I die, my death will be your fault!"

Trixie and Starlight saw this and were not happy about it. Starlight yelled, "What, my fault? You're the one that's doing this you idiot, I'm not forcing you to eat those things!"

Trixie grabbed Starlight and replied, "Starlight, don't let this stress you out, alright."

Starlight asked, "I know but I can't help but wonder how we will be received at school tomorrow because chances are a good portion of the student body is watching this pathetic display of his."

Trixie sighed, "Hey, if they treat us like dirt, we'll just tell them that this was his doing, not our fault!"

Starlight gave her a smile, "Sounds like a good plan to me!"

Once Sunburst saw that there was no message from Starlight, despite getting messages from pretty much everyone else to not do it, he placed the first pod in his mouth and bit into it. He began to gag but was not about to wimp out on this so he made sure to eat every last bit of detergent before spitting the plastic out. He had suds foaming out of his mouth and he cried, "Starlight, it's up to you. If you'd rather I die than dump Trixie and give me a chance, like I said, my death will be all your fault."

After receiving more messages to please stop, he took a second one and bit into it as well, doing as he did with the first. He still saw no message from Starlight and began crying and then began to consume a third. He continued to cough up suds and began to wobble as he sat there at his computer. He began to cough violently as the suds were causing a tickle in the back of his throat.

Sitting at their computer, Starlight and Trixie sat there with their mouths hanging open in shock. Both of them never imagined that his live stream would turn into him eating detergent pods like they were going out of style. Starlight did a facepalm and gasped, "Is he really that pathetic? He thinks he'll get my attention by doing something that stupid?"

Trixie laughed, "Apparently so. It looks like I'm going to be right, he'll die a virgin."

Starlight groped her and giggled, "What do you say we quit watching this, unfriend that moron and then go engage in our favorite activities."

Trixie giggled back, "Good idea sexy girl! Let's go have some fun!"

Starlight turned off the live stream and unfriended Sunburst before logging out of their account. As they rushed up to their bedroom Starlight gagged, "You know, there are simply some things that can't be unseen and him foaming at the mouth like a rabid dog is one of them."

Trixie gagged, "You got that right but after we have our fun, all of this will be forgotten!"

Starlight laughed, "You got that right!"


As Sunburst continued his live stream, he started in on a fourth pod before becoming weak and barely being coherent. Everyone who was still watching gasped in shock and many were messaging him, begging him to stop and even a couple of the girls offered to take him to the spring formal and even give him a chance for a relationship if he would stop. One student who had been messaging him from the very start had quit watching a long time ago and decided to take action.

After consuming a fourth pod, he fell onto the floor and shortly after, one student went rushing in to help him, Flash Sentry. He could tell that Sunburst's breathing was becoming erratic. He screamed, "No Sunburst, please no! Don't worry, I'll get you to the hospital."

Flash got Sunburst into his car and sped off towards the hospital, bound and determined to save his life. When Flash got him to the hospital, he was on the verge of death. Flash rushed him into the ER but it would not be long after arriving that Sunburst would pass. This was especially hard on Flash Sentry despite him only having interacted with Sunburst a couple of times. As he began the drive home, he couldn't help but question himself, "What if I had drove faster, what if I could have got there sooner, what if I could have talked Starlight into at least going on a date with him?"
