Rarity pays Twilight Sparkle a visit to ask her why she hasn't come to the Ponyville Autumn Social for the last two years. All she would need is a date, after all. Twilight waves away Rarity's request, explaining that she simply doesn't date -- ever. Rarity's inquiry as to why provokes Twilight into a seething rant that inadvertently reveals more than intended.

This is the second in a short series of stories elaborating on the versions of the mane 6 from the universe depicted in "The Sun Eater." This one is relatively mild for "Sun Eater" material in terms of content, but is still rated "Teen" for a reason. Expect mild language, adult themes, and use of mild (but legal) substances.
