This weekend you just recently started getting into Japanese Anime. Twilight had suggested to you to give it a shot, and now you couldn’t stop watching it. The first series you started to ease into was this
“Attack on Titan” show everyone of your classmates kept talking about.

“No! Eren! Why’d you have to die?!” you cried out loud, in an almost devastating tone. You knew that you were being overdramatic, but damn, you were hooked on this show.

You had multiple tabs up on your laptop, most of them of which were running anime, and others were either on Tumblr or Youtube. One tab was listening to your favorite radio station, playing some sort of Pop music in the background.

You heard a very violent banging on the door, opposed to much quieter knocking. You inched yourself out of bed and slowly walked to the door, letting out a tired yawn in the process. You had no idea what time it was either, your vision was too blurry when you were tired.

“Hello?” You find Rainbow Dash, with a wild bedhead and bags under her eyes, she looked very cranky.

“Why the HELL are you yelling at three in the morning? Can’t you see that I’m trying to enjoy my weekend?” This caused you to look at the clock, and much to your surprise it said 3AM right on the wall.

“I’m sorry, I guess I lost track of time.”

“Damn straight, now quiet down, or I’m gonna have to pimp slap a bitch.”

“Geez Rainbow, why you gotta be so mean?” you joked, but Rainbow wasn’t having any of it.

She slapped you across the face, you rub your left cheek as you tried to make the pain go away. She grunted and went back to her room, slamming the door behind her and locked it. You shrug as you go back inside of your own dorm and continued to watch things on your computer.

The next day you slept in; by the time you woke up, it was already lunch time. Knowing that your stomach was a bitch, you had to eat something as opposed to skipping lunch and going right back onto your laptop. First of all you rushed through your morning routine to get ready to go out: taking a shower, get on a fresh set of clothes, all the stuff you usually do.

You made your way to your car out on the parking lot, it wasn’t that far from your dorm either. On an empty stomach it was rather hard to focus for you, much to your disappointment. Hopefully that lack of focus didn’t hinder your driving, because that would just suck.

You start up your car, and the engine ignited without a hitch. Just before you put the car in drive, you heard a knocking on your side window. You look towards the right and see Rainbow trying to open the car door. Much to your amusement, you put your car in drive and pressed on the gas a tiny bit, going forward a few feet. She started to freak out, but you wouldn’t just leave her there, laughing as you unlock the car door, letting her inside.

“That was a dick move y’know,” she complained, hitting you in the arm as you pressed on the gas pedal once more.

“Hey, don’t blame me, I’m hungry as hell,” you retorted, managing to get out of the parking lot. “Besides, I didn’t even know you were coming.”

“What do you want for lunch?” you asked. Rainbow smirked as she looked at you devilishly.

“I’m thinking Mexican food, you know any places?”

“No, I can’t say I do... How about that diner down the street?” You suggested.

“Sure, I guess,” she said in a defeated tone. Of course you were oblivious, nothing less was expected of you.

She turned the radio up to hopefully start a conversation, but you turned it down quickly after at the thought of your windows shattering. She crossed her arms and pouted, causing you to chuckle slightly.

“Why were you up so early this morning?”

“Like I said, I lost track of time.”

“‘Lost track of time,’ my ass,” she mocked, she put her finger in your face and said something you didn’t pick up on, sometimes selective hearing came in handy for these specific moments.

You opened your mouth and attempted to bite her finger, but she pulled away quickly once she knew what you were up to. She flicked you on the side of the head, causing your head to rock back and forth like a bobblehead doll.

Just as you pulled into the parking lot, the clock hit 1PM, and your stomach growled once more. This predicament caused Rainbow to giggle, you rolled your eyes as you pocketed your keys and got out of the car.

“What do you think they got in there?”

“I don’t know, it’s a diner, probably american food I would think,” you say sarcastically, shrugging your shoulders as you crossed the parking lot.

“Why do you have to be such a smartass sometimes?” she pouted.

“Why do you have to ask such easy questions?” you countered.

“Why do you almost always answer a question with a question?”

“Why not?”

“I swear I’m gonna end up killing you one day.”

“Then I’ll see you at my funeral.” You opened the door and let Rainbow inside, remembering that ladies always go first, even when Rainbow’s not considered a ‘lady.’ What would she be considered? A tomboy? If anything, a tomboy would be an understatement.

The hostess sat both you and Rainbow in the nearest booth. You slid right into the leather bench without hesitation, Rainbow couldn’t help but to let out a snicker. You flipped open the menu and start looking through the pages.

“What’re you getting?”

“I don’t know, but since I’m buying, don’t go ordering the most expensive thing on the menu.”

“The highest price they have here is $10, and that’s for the Breakfast Special,” Rainbow deadpanned.

“I see...” Knowing Rainbow, she would probably get the All-You-Can-Eat Pancakes along with a pile of bacon to go with.

“Hello, may I take your order?” A waitress approached you with a heartwarming smile, holding a small notepad in her hand and a pen in the other.

“Yes, I’ll take the All-You-Can-Eat Pancakes, and can I get a side order of bacon?” Well, that was no surprise.

“And for you sir?” The waitress looked rather familiar, but you couldn’t really place your finger on it, even though it was right on the tip of your tongue.

“I think I’ll get the Scrambled Egg Platter with a side of grits.” Rainbow looked at you like you were crazy, you just raised an eyebrow back at her.

“Any drinks?”

“Iced tea.”

“A mug of coffee, please.” Once the waitress left, Rainbow looked at you suspiciously, you couldn’t help but to wonder why.

“Problem?” you asked.

“Why would you order grits? That stuff’s nasty.”

“I’ve always loved grits! One time I visited the Deep South and I-”

“No one wants to hear your stupid backstory, grits are nasty, the end.” How dare she stop you mid-sentence! You decided to let it slide this one time, you were hungry, but you were running low on patience.

“Here you are sir.” The waitress came back moments later with your coffee and Rainbow’s iced tea. You have to admit, the waitress lady was really pretty.

“Oh, um, I didn’t catch your name, Miss?” You spoke up.

“It’s Sarah,” she said happily, walking away from your table.

“So, how does she have a normal name compared to everyone else I’ve met so far?” You decided to ask Rainbow, if anyone was bound to know something, it would be her, or Twilight.

“I honestly don’t know, I guess it has to do with the surrounding neighborhood.”

“You know what? Fuck it, I’m done with trying to understand these things. I have to go somewhere in a few weeks and I’d rather not exhaust myself before I get there.” You could feel the weight of the bags under your eyes, maybe going to sleep at 3AM wasn’t such a good thing after all.

“Where ya goin?” Rainbow of course wanted to know, because she was most likely gonna go into your room and mess everything up. You had a sense in these kinds of things, knowing when someone was up to no good was one of them. Rainbow had guilt written all over her face.

“I’m going to Animegacon in Las Vegas,” you said in a very simple tone, you couldn’t get more straightforward than that.

“You’re such a nerd, why don’t you bring Twilight with you?” Rainbow all of a sudden got angry and shit.

“W-Why are you getting so angry all of a sudden?” You asked, but no answer was given. Rainbow quickly finished her second stack of pancakes, burping loudly.

The whole rest of the time she ignored you all the way until you finally got back to the campus, where she thanked you for the lunch and the car ride. Though you still couldn’t figure out why she got angry at you just for mentioning Animegacon. Knowing that Rainbow is part girl, she had a feminine side to her, and by knowing that, you didn’t quite understand girls in the first place.

Finally getting some peace and quiet back at your dorm, and after your heated exchange with Rainbow at the diner, you decided to play one of your classics. You popped Metal Gear Solid 4 into your Playstation 3 and put on your high quality headset.

“Oh my god I love this part!” What you were talking about is that this was one of those super epic boss battles that you weren’t allowed to talk about due to spoilers. There was always something you wanted to do while playing this game, and that one thing was play with Snake’s iPod while fighting one of the bosses.

You found yourself humming to the song you were playing, surprisingly with all that anime J-Pop was pretty normal at this point. Hopefully this wouldn’t affect your social life being in front of a computer all day can have its consequences, especially for long periods of time. Besides the point, Metal Gear Solid 4 was one of your favorite games of all time, hands down. Two other games that could possibly compete was The Last of Us, which was great in its own way, and Bioshock Infinite, which was just fun.

In the middle of the boss fight you felt something touch your shoulder, and you went into instant panic mode.

“Agh! What the fuck is wrong with you! Can’t you- Fluttershy?!” You found yourself in an awkward position with Fluttershy, who you found cowering under your comforter that was sprawled across the floor.

“Oh, I’m sorry Fluttershy, you kinda scared me for a second.” You tried to comfort her, who was beyond scared out of her wits by your outburst.

“I-It’s okay, I’m sorry to come here without knocking but Rainbow told me it was better if I just went in, she even unlocked the door for me,” she said innocently. You couldn’t really stay mad at Fluttershy.

“I seriously need to hide that key better,” you mumbled to yourself.

“Oh nothing you need to worry about. Anyways, you certainly must have a reason to come and visit, did you need something from me?” You smiled sheepishly, not really wanting to cause another predicament.

“C-Could you come meet me outside? There’s something I want for you to see, if you don’t mind me asking.”
