SunShim yesterday at 8:57 PM
I appreciate the concern
/gen
I don’t know how to talk about this

xX_Rainboomer_Xx yesterday at 8:59 PM
see there’s these letters on the screen that you touch and they become words and phrases

SunShim yesterday at 8:59 PM
:middlefinger:

xX_Rainboomer_Xx yesterday at 9:00 PM
lmao

SunShim yesterday at 9:02 PM
I’m not sure what I’m doing
Like
Idk I get worried about things
I worry that people local are going to come in with these expectations about me
I’ve kind of got a history

xX_Rainboomer_Xx yesterday at 9:04 PM
of being awesome

SunShim yesterday at 9:04 PM
And being a turbo-bitch who tried to invade a foreign nation using their magically shanghaied children

xX_Rainboomer_Xx yesterday at 9:05 PM
are you still on about that even now?

SunShim yesterday at 9:05 PM
Uh
Yes?
It’s kind of a big deal

xX_Rainboomer_Xx yesterday at 9:06 PM
people in this town aren’t resentful

SunShim yesterday at 9:06 PM
You don’t have to be resentful to be rightfully cautious of the mare who tried to kidnap an entire generation for child soldier purposes
As a demon
Using magic
I blew up the front of the school with a fireball

xX_Rainboomer_Xx yesterday at 9:07 PM
shit happens
we fixed it
everyone knows youre cool

SunShim yesterday at 9:07 PM
Sometimes I feel like you guys really undersell what I did. Just because you’re over it doesn’t mean anyone else is or that it’s any less fucked up

xX_Rainboomer_Xx yesterday at 9:07 PM
theyre gonna find out eventually dude
the guys you date i mean

SunShim yesterday at 9:08 PM
Not if they’re not from around here

xX_Rainboomer_Xxyesterday at 9:08 PM
so what youre just gonna hope they don’t find out?
this seems like an awful lot of extra work when you could pick from half the town who are already cool with you
also why dudes?? since when do you date dudes?

SunShim yesterday at 9:08 PM
I dated Flash

xX_Rainboomer_Xx yesterday at 9:08 PM
that doesnt count

SunShim yesterday at 9:08 PM
He’s a dude

xX_Rainboomer_Xx yesterday at 9:09 PM
are you trying to tell me that was legit

SunShim yesterday at 9:09 PM
No
He’s a dude though
It counts

xX_Rainboomer_Xx yesterday at 9:09 PM
you’re gay af, just own it

SunShim yesterday at 9:10 PM
I wanted to try dating a guy

xX_Rainboomer_Xx yesterday at 9:10 PM
and again
youre one of the hottest girls in the school
just pick one

SunShim yesterday at 9:10 PM
You make it sound so easy

xX_Rainboomer_Xx yesterday at 9:10 PM
YOURE THE HOTTEST GIRL IN THE SCHOOL MFER YEAH IM MAKING IT SOUND EASY
CUZ ITS EASY
HAVE YOU LOOKED AT YOURSELF
fr im convinced you could have that entire school around your finger at any time
but like by being sexy
not evil
though idk evil’s kinda sexy

SunShim yesterday at 9:11 PM
Tell me you have a type without telling me you have a type

xX_Rainboomer_Xx yesterday at 9:11 PM

SunShim yesterday at 9:14 PM

SunShim yesterday at 9:38 PM
Feeling gross

xX_Rainboomer_Xx yesterday at 9:38 PM
yeah well thats stupid
youre not gross

SunShim yesterday at 9:39 PM
Are you sure? Cuz guys seem to think so

xX_Rainboomer_Xx yesterday at 9:39 PM
I told you
dont use those apps
theyre crap
thats the kind of stuff Fluttershy’s brother would be really into
mfer probably has a grindr account and everything

SunShim yesterday at 9:40 PM
Never met her brother

xX_Rainboomer_Xx yesterday at 9:40 PM
keep it that way
greaseball
hes the dude they warn girls about when they’re getting into the dating scene
hes got so many red flags im p sure he lives in a tent made of them

SunShim yesterday at 9:40 PM
Noted
Guess Fluttershy got all the sweetness genes

xX_Rainboomer_Xx yesterday at 9:40 PM
fr
could get cavities from that girl

SunShim yesterday at 9:42 PM
Have you asked her out yet?

xX_Rainboomer_Xx yesterday at 9:42 PM
no
i don’t wanna make things weird
and idk if she’s into girls

SunShim yesterday at 9:43 PM
I’m surprised you haven’t asked yet

xX_Rainboomer_Xx yesterday at 9:43 PM
bro I can’t just ask
thats so obvious

SunShim yesterday at 9:43 PM
Alright miss rainbow hair, you tell me how that subtlety is going

xX_Rainboomer_Xx yesterday at 9:43 PM
LOOK
ok that’s one thing alright
but I can’t just ask the person what they’re into
when im trying to figure out if they’d be into me
i may as well just ask her if she’s into me at that point
and that could make it really weird
you gotta be smooth

SunShim yesterday at 9:44 PM
Rainbow Dash, I love you, but you’re about as smooth as a gravel road

xX_Rainboomer_Xx yesterday at 9:44 PM
i can be smooth

SunShim yesterday at 9:44 PM
In your dreams maybe
I think it adds to the charm tbh, everyone loves a little Failgirl energy

xX_Rainboomer_Xx yesterday at 9:44 PM
bitch im awesome

SunShim yesterday at 9:45 PM
You can be awesome and be a massive dork

xX_Rainboomer_Xx yesterday at 9:45 PM
f_is_for_fuckyou.gif

SunShim yesterday at 9:45 PM

xX_Rainboomer_Xx yesterday at 9:48 PM

SunShim yesterday at 9:48 PM
It’s kinda late for dinner

xX_Rainboomer_Xx yesterday at 9:49 PM

xX_Rainboomer_Xx started a call that lasted 3 hours 42 minutes. 5/22/2015 1:55 AM

Author's Note

I really enjoyed writing this. I had entirely too much fun replicating the Discord message format in FimFiction's text editor. I'm not entirely sure how well this works for a cohesive narrative, but this feels to me like it was ripped straight out of a Discord chat, which was the point, so I'm happy with it. Very fun departure from my usual writing style.
