Octavia's having a bad day. She keeps having bad days. She keeps failing at everyday skills that normal ponies don't have to worry about; She keeps failing at existing around other ponies. She can never exist right around them. She can't smile right around them... She can't make chitchat the right way... She can't open up. Something must be so wrong with her. She must be some kind of monster.

Her wife, Vinyl, begs to differ. And she tries her hoof at easing the pain with a pretty outlandish idea.
