[Action; outside 836 Hastings Boulevard]

[Rarity's out for a trot around the neighborhood when she notices a package sitting on the front step of the Liebert household addressed to her.]

For me...?  Whatever could this be?

[Blinking curiously, she gingerly bites at the string tying the package up and then meticulously opens it up with her hooves.  She scarcely has time to be confused by the picture of a unicorn horn inside, because as soon as she touches it, there's a momentary flash of light near her face as her horn is restored.]


Oh my!  Is it true?  Is it my horn?  I have to see!

[She runs back inside, coming back out with a small hand mirror floating in front of her as her horn sparkles with magic.  Smiling and laughing cheerfully, she turns her head from side to side, admiring her reflection and making kissy-faces.]


Much better!  Well, then, now that that's taken care of, I've got work to do!

[Action; around Mayfield; early afternoon]

[Later on, Rarity's managed to find a little red wagon and hitch herself up to it.  She's got a small pouch filled with coins tied around her neck, and there's a piece of paper and a pencil floating in front of her face as she holds it there with her magic.]

Let's see... I'll need fabric, sewing needles, thread, buttons, a pincushion, some gemstones, lace, sequins...

[Feel free to stop her, since she's largely just musing to herself at this point.  She may also be humming something to herself along the way.]

[Action; around Mayfield; late afternoon]

[It's a few hours later now, and Rarity's wagon is still empty.  Several of the items on her list are crossed out entirely rather than checked.  She hasn't been able to buy anything at all despite having money, because the proprietor of every shop she's attempted to visit has shooed her out of the doorway to the store before she even set foot inside.  Worse still, they all seem to think she's a dog.  You might catch her in the process of being kicked out of one of these businesses, or between them grumbling to herself about the drones and their extremely bad manners.]

Hmph... a dog indeed!  Can't these silly drones tell the difference between a housepet and a unicorn pony?

Oh, Ruri! I do hate to trouble you with this, but it seems the shopkeepers won't allow me inside.

"Do you have a list of what you need?"

Yes, right here.

[Rarity's horn glows for a moment, and the paper and pencil float over to Ruri. The things on the list are crossed out, but still legible. It basically boils down to 'sewing supplies.']

[Guy spots Rarity and sprints over because gotta help!]

Do you assistance with that wagon, Lady Rarity?

Oh, Guy! No, I couldn't possibly trouble you with this.

This is hardly any trouble at all! Plus, I do not happen to be doing anything else.

Well, if you insist.

[Still, she looks pretty happy about it anyway. A lady always refuses once, of course.]

[Without waiting, he takes up the wagon behind him and follows along.]

What do you plan on doing with everything you're buying?

I'm going to reopen my dress boutique. Nina and Johan were kind enough to allow me to have a room in their house and the use of their sewing machine.

That sounds useful enough. ....I think.

It's how I make my living back home - making dresses and other pieces of clothing for the other ponies in Ponyville. It's my dream to be a famous fashion designer one day!

What if you were the first one here?

Hastings Blvd.

[ Across the street, at 837 Hastings, there's a small blond girl with a popsicle idly watching this purple-haired pony. She didn't seem particularly interested, just bored with nothing else to focus on. It was the lethargy that marked her as anything other than a drone: after all, drone children played, laughed, and chatted aimlessly.

She wasn't going to let the fact that a purple-haired pony was living across the street surprise her-- she'd already met Applejack, and somebody of her age didn't express shock at seeing something they'd already seen once before.

That changed once Rarity opened her package and-- DID SHE JUST SUDDENLY GROW A HORN!?

Yeah, mouth opens, popsicle drops to the ground forgotten. ]


WHAT THE HELL JUST HAPPENED!?!?!

[Which, in turn, causes Rarity to yell out in surprise. After all, she wasn't really paying attention to anyone watching her.]

Aaaaaaaahhhhhhhh!

2/2

[But then she looks and sees it's just one of the neighbor girls. Taking a deep breath, Rarity sighs and shakes her head in mild exasperation.]

You startled me!

"Let me have the money and wait here for a bit and I'll get these things for you."

[She nods a bit]

You just--

[ SHE IS POINTING AT RARITY ]

You just sprung a horn!

Yes, isn't it marvelous?

[Pinkie, with a very familiar little alligator perched on her back and barely clinging onto her mane, is hopping down the street cheerfully. When she spots Rarity being shooed out of a store, she bounces on over.]

Ooh, Rarity. You okay?

Date: 2011-07-20 11:08 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] darkevangel.livejournal.com
But how did-- How did you do that!?

Date: 2011-07-21 09:13 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] frilly-filly.livejournal.com
The first what?

From: [identity profile] frilly-filly.livejournal.com
It's all in here.

[Rarity shakes her head back and forth a bit, causing the coins in the little cloth purse around her neck to jingle around. It's full of quarters.]

The first fashion person. Wouldn't that mean you make the fashions?

Well, I am a unicorn, after all.
