A Collection of Shorts

Rainbow Dash stared at the computer impatiently as Team Fortress 2 slowly started up. She was already on the group Skype voice call with the rest of her friends, but she refrained from saying anything. As soon as the game had loaded, she got a message from Twilight.

*Magic has invited you to join a PVM party.

*Honesty, Loyalty, and Laughter have joined the party

*Kindness has joined the party

Twilight started the search for games.

*Magic: Where in the hell is Rarity?

*Generosity has joined the party.

*Loyalty: Dibs on Scout!

The game loaded, dumping the six into an empty server. They all groaned.

“Coaltown? Really?”

“I haven’t defeated this map yet!” Twilight replied.

The ponies started choosing their loadouts. Rainbow Dash went for the scout, equipping him with the Force-a-Nature, Mad Milk, and the Sandman.

“Dibs on medic!” Twilight called. She gave her medic the Crusader's Crossbow, the Quickfix, and the standard Bone Saw.

“Oh ok. I guess you can be medic, if you want... I’ll just choose... Heavy? Is that ok with everypony?”

“Cool with us Fluttershy!”

“Ok.. Thanks guys!” Fluttershy immediately started going over the heavy’s armoury. “Hmm... Gloves of Fighting, Natascha, and... Reserve shooter?”

“Haha! I got to the Sniper first!”

“Aww, I wanted the sniper Rarity!”

“Too bad!”

Rarity briefly considered equipping Jarate then decided not to. “How... Uncivilized...” She loaded up with the Bazaar Bargain, the Cleaner’s Carbine and the Bushwacker.

“Ooo! Ooo! I want the pyro! I’m gonna use the rainblower and pyro vision and the candy lollipop thing and its gonna be so fun and those robots are gonna have a party when they die!”

“Cool story Pinkie.”

“Ah want tha Engineer, if thats ok with y’all”

“No prob AJ! No one is as good at you with him anyways!” Applejack went with the Jag, the Wrangler, the Frontier Justice, and the rest of the standard load out.

“Is everpony ready?”

“One second y’all, I gotta get this sentry in just the right spot. Ok, lets go!”

“5. 4. 3. 2. 1...”
