Table service is not an option.

Slow service annoys us all. It's just that most of us have the restraint to avoid being rude and extremely blunt. Sadly, this lass doesn't. Though I imagine the ridiculousness of her outfit isn't helping.

Sugarcoat did seem annoyed as she walked over. "That was one of the most shambolic queuing experiences I have had in my life."

"Yo, sugar!" Lemon Zest shouted. "What's up?"

"The sky," Sugarcoat bluntly replied. "Also, I have no idea why I decided to wear tights today, as they are making me really hot for some reason. I may take them off later."

"Then what would you wear?" Indigo Zap asked, confused.

"Socks. I only got enough for one."

"Oh, that's wonderful. Why would you only have one sock?" asked Sour Sweet.

"Food for one person, not one sock. If I'd ordered for multiple people, my order would have taken several years to process. People were picking up orders from 2017."

None of the others had any idea whether Sugarcoat was engaging in hyperbole or not, as being extremely blunt and brutally honest was in her character. Just then, Lemon Zest had a bright idea. "I know how we can all eat!"

"How?" Indigo Zap asked, with a grin. If there was one thing that could excite people of their age, it was food, given their high metabolism and weed-like growth rate meant that any calories were easily absorbed.

"I have a special card for the Carmelia Bar and Grill that gives me 20% off my orders, and I could probably negotiate away the gratuity as I'm pretty good friends with one of the servers. What was his name? I'm pretty certain it was a French connective."

"Is that on the other side of town? Because a walk would help all of us," Sour Sweet added.

"Off we go!" Indigo Zap called, and she and Lemon Zest quickly raced off to see who would get there first. In comparison, Sugarcoat and Sour Sweet took it a little slower, strolling along the sidewalk on this absolutely boiling day.

"So, how was your experience of that place?"

"Oh, McDonalds? Sure, I'll tell you. It was crap."

"Care to elaborate?"

Sugarcoat nodded, before wiping her glasses yet again as the humidity was causing them to steam up. "It all began when I needed something to eat..."

About half an hour earlier...

Jimmy realised his fridge did not have enough stuff in it. This was a problem most serious for him, as this meant he did not have enough for lunch, and his stomach was quick to inform him of this most gross miscalulation, as it growled and rumbled with fury, like an annoyed lion that had been woken from its slumber and now demanded tribute.

Luckily, there was internet ordering of fast food to cover such problems, as Jimmy knew well. His family had briefly worked in fast food, after all. So he went to his computer, and piced it up and said "Behold, I shall order food!"

And he did. McDonalds, to be precise (yuck!). He went for a 6 piece set of chicken nuggets, fries, and a chocolate milkshake with whipped cream and a cherry on top of it to boot (he didn't buy a slush puppy, on the grounds that they were expensive and highly wasteful, as they had very little liquid in them and mostly turned to horrible slush in the bottle). His PC chimed as he saw the confirmation appear on his screen.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR ORDER!

IT WILL BE READY SOON, SO PLEASE HEAD DOWN TO YOUR LOCAL MCDONALDS BRANCH FOR PICKUP.

THANK YOU FOR ORDERING FROM MCDONALDS.

"Knowing them," Jimmy sighed, "it'll be a few years before it'll be ready, but no doubt the Lion's Club and Magnolia will be incredibly full, so I won't go there. I pity the poor workers, as they have to handle so many people with such rudeness and meanness that it makes working horrible. What am I rambling about? Oh yes, something about working conditions for these workers. Oh well, nothing to say here. Off I go!" And he left the room, walkied along the corridor, and out of the door and on his way to his local fast food joint.

Unfortunately, fast food was about as you could get from an accurate description of the state in McDonalds at that time. Indeed, slow food would have been a more accurate description, much more fitting than Slow TV (really? One Jimmy had watched had been a rail journey at 55 miles per hour, which is hardly slow). The line was so glacially slow Jimmy checked his phone. Repeatedly.

Suddenly, the Jamesmeister saw an accessory sitting on the floor, which was sitting on the floor, and was magenta. So he picked it up and placed it into his hair for some reason.

And lo, he went with the multitude and witnessed some strange things indeed. As a result of the new hairband, his hair had been forced into a pair of ponytails sticking out in strange directions, and this led to the one on the left turning from brown to a light opalish gray with light artic bluish gray streaks in it. Then the center followed suit fairly promptly, followed by the second ponytail in rapid succession. In order to see the three separate sections change, you would need to have slowed the footage down in order to see it happen. But as nobody filmed the incident, that is not a possibility, which is a shame as this whole incident is strangely fascinating.

Not long after, the next part to shift was his skin and face, of which the skin became a light phthalo bluish gray color. His eyes turned from blue to a grayish orchid color, and yet nobody noticed anything that was going on, not even his height and mass decreasing to those of a teenage girl.

Unusually, the glasses staid in place, albeit now orange framed instead of red. But soon after, a familiar lump on his neck vanished, following by his shoulders suddenly crashing inwards, making his already small clothes look even looser as he tried to hold some of them up. With a BOING his chest exploded into a pair of breasts, and his waist slimmed down as his hips popped out, giving him an hourglass figure. Seconds after that, a loud squelching noise announced the end of his manhood, and her legs slimmed down alongside her feet. Finally, her arms and hands shrank in width and length, left very small indeed.

Jimmy was processing what was going on, having no idea who this was as her shoes changed into a pair of white heels. Moments after that, her socks woke up and turned alternating shades of white and orange before starting to slither up her legs and eventually stop around her hips, having joined together near the top and merged to create a pair of tights. Her shorts got in on the game moments later, also turning white as the legs merged together and created a skirt with a symbol of a blue and yellow piece of dynamite on it, with a comically long fuse flanked by yellow stars. Her polo shirt lost its collar, and the neckline dropped to around her breasts, held in place by something else, followed by the material changing consistency to something softer and becoming orange as well, with dark orange trim on the sleeves.

And with that, the order was finally ready. "Number 1014 please!" called the cashier.

"You need to make your service more efficient," Sugarcoat replied, before taking the bag and walking off.

"You served her?" a man in a mask exploded. "She wasn't wearing a mask!"

"Oops."

Present day...

Eventually, when Sugarcoat had finished explaining the story, they had arrived.

"It's incredibly convenient that we were sufficiently far away from the restaurant that Sugarcoat was able to explain in perfect detail what happened to fill the gap between there and here."

"Right," Lemon Zest sighed, as Indigo Zap opened the door. Inside, they were rather suprised by what they saw at one of the counters and nearby at one of the chairs. One of their own number was at the counter, waiting for something. But seated nearby, without a face mask, was a familiar woman with blue hair, in a formal blue dress of multiple shades, the skirts of which spilled over the sides of the chair.

Author's Note

Ah Sugarcoat.... she sure is blunt though, which is something for her being Applejack's counterpart. Nevertheless though, she is also a favorite Shadowbolt Member to another one of my friends that i know on both DA and FIMFiction as well.

So like always: First half of Fan Art will be of Sugarcoat by herself and the second half will be with the other three: Lemon Zest, Sour Sweet, and Indigo Zap. :3

Enjoy! Only 2 more Shadowbolts left for me to transform into for today. :3

By herself:

With Lemon Zest, Sour Sweet, and Indigo Zap:

Next time: Rarity's Shadowbolt Counterpart that is a bit.... different from her in terms of mannerisms. Plus a surprise visit from another world? :O

P.S. This Sugarcoat TG TF goes out to GamerWhiz14, aka Hayley. She's one of my friends for on both DeviantART and FIMFiction and of course..... she's a huge fan of Sugarcoat mainly because of her being her Favorite Shadowbolt member. X3

Link to her FIMFiction page is down below. ;3
