"Tomorrow's the start of a long break, don't forget you're all students and cat with caution." Cheerilee said, "Yes!" the class said, "Students feel restless at this time of year, and many cause societal disturbances, I'm really concerned, Take care in avoiding trouble." Cheerilee said, the class stayed silent, "In short, if you do something bad, it'll cut into my vacation, so I'm begging you!" Cheerilee said, the class groaned, "She's hopeless." Silver Spoon said.
"It's finally vacation, when I think about I don't have to see your face everyday, I feel so good." Twilight said to Rainbow as they walked home, making Sunbeam jump, "Well, even if it is a vacation, I'll still see Ms. Cheerilee every day." Rainbow said, "Why? do you have make up classes?" Twilight asked, "We're in the same party on an MMO." Rainbow said, "That's just yeah." Twilight said, "MMO?" Sunbeam asked, "She's a wizard and I'm a tank." Rainbow said, "We play together and if I pull, we get crazy experiences." she said, "Well, I'm the only one who's actually busy, all she has to do is spells, the other day, I got pulled into this mob, but she had fallen asleep, it took a whole day to make up from the experience of death." Rainbow said, "Um in English please." Twilight groaned.
"Good morning, it sure in hot." Sunbeam yawned as she woke up the next morning, her mane messy, "Morning, your mane sure is wild." Twilight said, as she ate some breakfast, "Hey sis, can't we turn the AC on?" Sunbeam asked, grabbing a piece of toast, "There you go again, don't be so quick to depend on that stuff." Twilight said, "Just use a fan, here." she said, handing a paper fan to Sunbeam, Sunbeam fanned her self but got tired, "I'm hot, you get tired from fanning yourself, and you feel hotter than before." she said, "I expected this, hang in there." Twilight said.
Soon they were at the Summer Solstice festival, all dressed in yukatas, "Everypony's wearing yukatas." Fluttershy said, donning a blue yukata with butterflies, "Our sashes are the pre-tied kind, the ones you can just attach." Twilight said, donning a yukata with stars, "Even then, yukatas are hard to put on." Sunbeam said, donning a yukata with suns on it, "Yours is a real ties on sash right? I shouldn't be surprised." Twilight said to Fluttershy, "Oh no, a clerk at the store tied it for me." Fluttershy said, "Tying a sash would be hard for me." she said, "I see." Twilight said, they saw Rainbow's mane was in a ponytail, held by a purple ribbon, and she had a yukata with rainbows on it, "And Rainbow's wearing one, oddly enough." Twilight said, "Did you get yours tied at the store too?" she asked as Rainbow twirled, "No, my dad did it for me, let's go!" she said, they walked while Sunbeam had a nervous look, "Why does her dad know how to tie a sash?" she thought, soon, they were having a good time and Rainbow had a candied apple then a lavender pegasus with a blonde mane donning a police suit galloped up to her, "Rainbow Dash!" she said, "A cop? you know her?" Twilight asked, "She's my cousin, Cloud Kicker." Rainbow said, "Nice to meet you!" Cloud Kicker said, "It's a pleasure." all 3 said.
"Listen to your elders, respect others and get home safely." Cloud Kicker said to Rainbow, thinking they were adults, "No no no no, we're in the same age group, don't use Rainbow as the standard." Twilight thought, "We're the same age." Rainbow said, "Whoa! Sorry, the difference in height got me." Cloud Kicker said, "It's ok." Twilight said, "Man, girls sure hit puberty early." Cloud Kicker said, "No, no like I said don't use Rainbow as the standard! We're the normal ones!" Twilight thought, just then they walked to a booth, "It's a shooting game!" Rainbow said, "Cloudy, aren't you a good shooter?" Rainbow asked Cloud Kicker, who had cotton candy and a caramel apple, "Well believe it or not, I'm good enough to be known as Sharpshooter Cloudy." Cloud Kicker said proudly, "I can hit five bulls-eyes in 3 seconds, enough time to flash a peace sign." she said, "Then show us." Rainbow said holding the game rifle, making Cloud Kicker jump, "You use rifles for shooting games? I use pistols." she said, "Can't wait!" Rainbow said jumping up and down a bit, Cloud Kicker was trying to hold the rifle, but was having trouble, she was too used to holding a pistol, just then unicorn cop came up to her, making her jump, "Kicker, why are you concentrated over here? aren't you on duty?" he asked, then dragged her away with magic, "Back to patrolling." he said, "What!" Cloud Kicker asked.
"Let's try this again..." Rainbow said awkwardly, "Hey big guy, we can have anything over there if we hit it?" she asked a cute stallion, "They're all ok." he said, "All of them?" she asked and he nodded, she looked around and aimed the rifle at him, "Whoa, I'm not a prize!" he said, soon they were walking around more, "Festivals are all about shaved ice!" Rainbow said, "It's pretty hot, let's have some!" Twilight said, soon they were deciding on flavors, "Oh yeah, I wonder what strawberry, lemon and melon are." Twilight said, "But what kind of fruit is Blue Hoofwaii? what does it taste like?" Rainbow asked, looking at Twilight, "L-like Blue Hoofwaii?" she asked nervously, "That's right, that's how you think." Rainbow thought, "Do you know anything about Blue Hoofwaii?" she asked Fluttershy, she thought about it, "Blue Hoofwaii? is it a song? no that's not it..." she thought, "I'm not really sure, I'm sorry I couldn't help, I'll look it up soon." she said, "I'm counting on you.' Rainbow said, "Wait, shouldn't the sompony who wants to know look it up?" Twilight asked with an annoyed look, "Um about Blue Hoofwaii, I think it comes from a cocktail with the same name and color, the cocktail was named with the movie Blue Hoofwaii in mind." Sunbeam said, "You're right, that was very informative." Fluttershy said, "When you learn something from Sunbeam, you feel like you really failed." Rainbow thought.
"I just realized I barely have any money left." Sunbeam said, "Stuff at these stalls aren't cheap, use your money wisely." Twilight said, "But the whole atmosphere makes you wanna spend." Rainbow said, "I guess." Twilight said, "It's like you don't realize how expensive doujinshi is at Comiket." Rainbow said, "Afterwards you're like "Whoa, I spent a lot." she said, "Nopony understands your world!" Twilight thought, "You're all exhausted from waiting in line since morning, and it's really from from the west gate and the east gate." Rainbow said, "We don't understand what you're saying!" Twilight thought as Sunbeam got a confused look.
Sunbeam was eating some cotton candy, "I love how fluffy and sweet cotton candy is." she said, getting some on her nose, "You're not a filly, eat slower." Twilight said, taking it off and eating it, "It's not as cute when mares do it..." Rainbow said, "Don't say it..." Twilight said, "Why haven't any of us found romance?" Rainbow asked, then turned around "Summer festivals are all about yukatas! if this was a dating sim, you'd probably trigger a flag somewhere." she said, "Flag?" Sunbeam asked, "And there'd be one event scene, since you'd be in yukatas, and it's outdoors." Rainbow said, "That's enough out of you."Twilight said with an irritated look.
"Aren't you gonna play something, Twilight?" Fluttershy asked, "Since we're here, might as well try to win an owl or something." Twilight said, soon she was trying to guess wich owl was which but they flew away from her, "I haven't even made a move yet! why are they running away?" she asked, "Perhaps they sense your barbaric nature and run away?" Rainbow suggested, this made Twilight jump, "Looks like we have hard proof." Rainbow said, Sunbeam noticed something, "Look, that one didn't fly away!" she said, pointing to a horned owl, "Oh my Celestia, that's a horned owl!" Twilight said, that won her the owl, "I'll take good care of it." she said, small tears of happiness in her eyes as the owl was on her back, "Owlysious, that's your name." she said.
They kept walking and they saw Cheerilee, "Oh you all came! I heard there was a festival and I decided to check it out." she said, "Did you bring your stallionfriend?" Rainbow asked, Cheerilee laughed, "Of course not! I don't have one." she said, all the girls groaned, "Why isn't there a shred of romance around us?" Rainbow asked, "We meet again, and you have a new friend with you." Cloud Kicker said, "Oh this is Cheerilee." Rainbow said, Cloud Kicker looked at Cheerilee intensely, making Cheerile confused, "So this is the one who hit puberty early huh?" Cloud Kicker said, making Cheerliee jump, "She's our teacher." Rainbow said, "Oh! I'm terribly sorry, I assumed you were a classmate!" Cloud Kicker said, "It's ok." Cheerilee said, "This is my cousin Cloud Kicker, as you can see, she's a cop." Rainbow said, "Yeah, today's a summer festival, so I'm on patrol." she said, but she had a mask, an owl and two balloons, "Work? looks more like you're having fun..." Cheerilee thought.
"Are you also working? Keeping an eye on the students?" Cloud Kicker asked, "No, I was bored so I thought I'd drop by." Cheerilee said, "Lucky you, if I wasn't on duty, I would've come to play around." Cloud Kicker said, "You're already playing around." Cheerilee thought, "Are you also by yourself?" she asked, "Yes, I am." Cloud kicker said, "I see!" Cheerilee said, but what she didn't know was Cloud Kicker's husband worked far away, they started to laugh but Cloud Kicker was confused.
We see Opal yawn, "Lucky Ponies." all 4 said.
"Well I would suggest balsamic vinegar, but the normal vinegar in your kitchen is ok too." a host on tv said while Sunbeam watched, then she was reading a book, "Balsamic vinegar!" she thought with a giggle, then she was outside eating a popsicle, "Balsamic vinegar!" she thought, then she was talking to Twilight, "Vacations are boring since there's nothing to do, you're used to sitting around and doing nothing." she said, "If you're gonna say that, don't ask me to show you my homework later." Twilight said, making Sunbeam jump.
Then Sunbeam was on the phone, "I see, it sure is cute, all stout and rotund, and the outside looks like a frog," she said, "Yeah, depoly uranuim huh? that's so cool!" she said, then realized something, "I'll be in trouble if I'm on the phone too long, bye!" she said, hanging up, then she was talking to Twilight, "I was on the phone with Dashie, and I mentioned how much free time we have on vacation, and she said she has a bunch of games that are piled up, so she has no free time, I guess someponies have a full and satisfying vacation." Sunbeam said, "Maybe I should do something too." she said, "Well I guess that's ok, but do your homework! every single time..." Twilight thought.
We see Rianbow on her computer, "I'll pull one." she IM'd her teammates, "k." a teammate named Gotango IM'd, "lololo." another teammate typed, "Debuff plz." Rainbow typed, "Your friend Cheeriwarrior has signed on." the computer said, "Oh, Ms. Cheerilee's on." Rainbow said, "Hi." Rainbow typed, "Hi ^3^" Cheerilee typed, "You're on a lot more since vacation started huh?" Rainbow asked, "Pretty much lol." Cheerilee typed, "I've got some time, wanna go hunting?" Rainbow asked, "Oh yeah, I'm coming!" Cheerilee said, "I'm in the cave near Hoofington village." Rainbow typed, "Time for some wiz action!" another teammate said, "Then I'll be waiting by the gate." Rainbow typed, "That's great and all but have you done your homework? -_-" Cheerilee asked, "Huh?" Rainbow asked, "Been in your room the whole time? -_-" Cheerilee typed, "._." Rainbow typed, "Don't forget when school starts again." Cheerilee said, "Also don't stay up late or sleep in just cuz you're on vacation." she said, "Ms. Cheerilee, stop talking about the real world on MMO games." Rainbow thought, "It's like I'm getting yelled at Twilight everyday." she groaned.
"Hey, sure is hot today." Rainbow said as she entered Twilight's house, "Oh welcome, come on in." Twilight said, soon Rainbow was in the living room, and saw Twilight's dad doing garden work outside, "hello." she said, he nodded to her, "Oh, you set up an electric fan." she said, "Since it's hot, cool your self down." Twilight said, going into another room, Rainbow stared at the fan, "Ahhh..." she said, making her voice sound weird, "I knew it, I knew you'd do it." Twilight said as she carried drink in with her magic, "Good morning, oh Rainbow's here." Sunbeam said, "Hey." Rainbow said, "Good morning, my hoof! do you have any idea what time it is?" Twilight asked, "it sure is hot." Sunbeam said, getting in front of the fan, before doing what Rainbow did, "You too!" Twilight asked, "It's the normal thing to do." Rainbow said, "It's not." Twilight said, "But you did it this morning too." her dad said, making Twilight jump and Rainbow smirk, "See." Rainbow said, "I was seen..." Twilight thought.
"Looks like Comp Festival's pretty popular." Rainbow said, "What's that?" Sunbeam asked, "If you collect the forms that come in these magazines and send them in, you can get every single limited edition QUO card.' Rainbow said, "I'm constantly taking magazines to the register like I'm possessed." Rainbow said, "You were saying the same thing about QUO cards the other day." Twilight said, "Ponies are really weak willed, when it comes to special gifts or limited edition stuff." Twilight said, "That's why it's essential to to buy one for preservation, one to look at and a spare one." Rainbow said, "Wait a minute, you're an undeniably special case! there aren't many ponies like you." Twilight said, "Sometimes I forgot who I lent it to and have to buy a new one." Rainbow said, "Don't forget." Twilight grumbled, "I'd like to order the usual." Rainbow said, "Homework!" Sunbeam said, "Again?" Twilight asked, "I'll teach what you don't know but try doing the problems yourself." she said, soon, they were doing homework while Twilight read, "Balsamic vinegar..." Sunbeam said to herself, "Twilight, tell me how to do this one." Rainbow said, "Oh for that one..." Twilight said, soon they were back to working, "Twilight, I don't know how to get through here." Rainbow said, making Twilight groan, then Twilight was playing a game, "Twilight, tell me-" rainbow said, "You're not even trying to think are you?" Twilight asked.
Soon Rainbow was at home, "She wound up not telling me." she sighed, "Hey, I'm here to play!" Cloud Kicker said, "Oh Cloud Kicker, perfect timing, teach me this one." Rainbow said, "Math homework? let me see, leave it to me!" Cloud Kicker said, taking the book, then realized how hard it was, "Um, as a cop, my help would not benefit you, so don't depend on others so fastly..." she said, making Rainbow groan, soon she was doing homework while Cloud Kicker played her DS, then Rainbow groaned, "It's a pain when I don't understand any of the questions." she said, "If you don't know the answers, just write something that sounds close." Cloud Kicker said, "Because you just have to turn the homework in." she said, "But that weakens what you said before..." Rainbow thought.
"I'll do gaming for a little break." Rainbow said, turning her computer on, "I'll do solo hunting for thirty minutes, thirty minutes should be good." she said, soon she was playing, then she saw something, "A rare drop." she said, "Luna's moon sword! I've never seen anypony with this!" she said, "IT'S ULTRA RARE!" she said "Found a moon sword!" she IM'd, "Rly?" someone IM'd, "lololol, grats." someone else said, "I'll be there so show me!" Cheeliee typed, "let's celebrate by testing it out!" someone else said, "k, come on." Rainbow said, "Everypony's pumped up, I know! I'll buy a bunch of potions to pass out! time to get busy!" she said, her homework lay forgotten.
We see Opal asleep, "Lucky Ponies." all 4 said.
"LUCKY PONY CHANNEL!" Diamond Tiara yelled. We se her at her and Silver Spoon's usual spot, behind their desk.
"Hi everypony, I'm your favorite navigator, Diamond Tiara! We're already on the fifth episode of Lucky Pony Channel! Things are gonna get crazier!" Diamond Tiara yelled, waving her front legs around.
"Now let me introduce… someone whose showing up more in the show and is getting really full of it… I mean, my very good friend, the hardworking, Silver Spoon!" Diamond Tiara said, clopping her hooves together.
"Well uh, I didn't mean to look like I was full of it… I'm the assistant, Silver Spoon! It's a pleasure." The gray filly said.
"Ok, we're always getting lots o postcards and this one's sent to us all the way from Canterlot!" Diamond Tiara said, holding a postcard up.
"Huh? Operation: NEET. This guy sent in 50 all by himself…" Silver Spoon said, looking at the postcard. "He must be one busy guy! Anyway, let's move onto the postcard." Diamond Tiara said as she started to read.
"Good day, Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon. In Lucky Ponies, Rainbow seems to play MMO's. Do you also play these games, Diamond Tiara? By the way, I live a happy life playing female characters every day." Diamond Tiara read. She then started to laugh giddily.
"MMO's, online games? I'm sorry to say that I've never tried it." Silver Spoon said. Diamond Tiara nodded. "But it's better if you haven't." she said. "Another blunt response…" Silver Spoon thought. She then decided to break the ice.
"R-really?" She asked. "Yeah, too many ponies getting addicted and giving up on the real world. I was dumb like that once, I'd log on whenever I had time… and stay on forever doing stuff like PKKing. Back when I was young." Diamond Tiara said. Silver Spoon then got nervous.
"W-when you were young? Um, there were a bunch of words I didn't get…" Silver Spoon said timidly. "You're better off not knowing. Well, only half the audience is going to get it anyway." Diamond Tiara said, leaning on one of her hoofs.
"A-anyway, so you've played them before? Then do you have any online experiences you would like to share?" Silver Spoon asked her partner. Diamond Tiara then jumped up, surprising Silver Spoon! "Yep! You bet I do! When I first started, I didn't know what to do and I got lots of help from some really nice and experienced guys! They gave me lots of expensive armor and rare items!" Diamond Tiara said.
"Diamond Tiara was so touched!" She said. "R-really…" Silver Spoon asked. "Yes, it was really fun so you should all play, too!" Diamond Tiara said just as the LPC theme kicked in. "We're already out of time! Bye-bye!" She said, waving to the audience.
"Then we'll see you next time!" Silver Spoon said, waving too. The title card then came up and the two continued their talk. "So you're popular in those kind of games, huh? Huh, Diamond Tiara? What's wrong?" Silver Spoon asked. "Cut 12 on page 38." Diamond Tiara said.
"Yes?" Silver Spoon said. "WHO THE HECK'S MARILYN? I'M DIAMOND TIARA!" The purple filly yelled. "AHH! That's what you're mad at now?" Silver Spoon asked. "BRING OUT WHOEVER'S RESPONSIBLE!" Diamond Tiara yelled at the top of her lungs.
"D-Director? Director! Help me! Diamond Tiara, please calm down!" Silver Spoon said. "I'M DIAMOND TIARA!" She yelled and then she finally calmed down.
"In fact, why don't we change your name Silver Spoon? How about to something like su…!"
