Shimmer Glass is the newest employee of the Sapphire Carousel, and she has every reason to distrust the place and the people who have taken her in. She especially has reason to be wary of the Carousel's bodyguard, Rainbow Dash, and her improper conduct around the other employees.

But the Sapphire is both more and less than meets the eye, and soon, Shimmer will discover the true nature of her employers and her coworkers, and decide if she wants to risk her heart with the irreverent guardian of the Carousel.

This is a fanfic of Monochromatic's Crimson Lips. Reading up to at least "Chapter 19: Shimmer Glass" is absolutely required for this fic to make any sense, though you should read the whole thing anyways since it's incredible.

This fic is rated M for the exact same reasons that Crimson Lips is: for discussions of mature subject matter.Rated T now because so is Crimson.
