Sis, you better not be going to see RRBB, or Celestia help me I'll get a Twilight to teleport me there and drag you home!

MixaMax

You've done enough already. If this is the last chance I get to be with her I'll go for it.

Short&Hoofy

Why?! Just tell me that? She doesn't even notice you! You've been at it for years and what has it gotten you? I'll tell you what—a bowl of trouble! You used to be happy once, top of your class and everything. Look at you now!

I've been friends with RRBB ever since Vol 4, but I'm still mad at her for that. And you for being so stupid. Bottom line, if you go you tell her what you think of her!

MixaMax

You're one to talk. All the times I asked you for advice on that topic you were busy. You didn't even know I had feelings for her!

Short&Hoofy

So I'm a crappy sister, what else is new? And why didn't you tell me? I had to find out from PaintDrop and Lyra about the whole mess. PaintDrop of all ponies! Do you know his stupid this sounds? A classmate knows more about your life than me!

MixaMax

Sis, I really don't want to argue. I've already agreed to move to the Empire. Let me have the next few months to myself okay?

Short&Hoofy

No! I'm not letting you see her! Hate me all you want, I'm doing this for your own good! One day you'll understand.

MixaMax

She already understands.

Jade

What the *yay*?! You added him to the PM? :/

MixaMax

Someone has to talk sense into you, Max. And in this case it's me. Have you ever asked yourself why Short never spoke to you about her life at school? I'll tell you. She doesn't want to disappoint you. It's stupid, but that's her greatest fear.

Sorry, Short, but as long as we're laying all cards on the table I have to say this. You always go to extremes for the ponies you love. Your sister, your parents, RRBB. I know the feeling. And I know the pain. I think Max is wrong not to let you go, but right in saying you should make your feelings known. Waiting is good, but as we've seen RRBB won't ever get over YouKnowWho on her own.

It's your choice: fight or get out of the way.

Jade

Jade, you *yay*! Stop filling her head with *yay*!

MixaMax

Did anypony stop you when you went halfway across Equestria to propose?

Jade

That's different. I knew you were the one for me. That night at the meetup, then your story. I never hid anything! She's going through a high school crush.

MixaMax

I think it's more than that, Max. Short isn't you. And even if it is, she'll handle it. You did. You told me parents had enough faith to let you make your own choices. Why not her?

Jade

Sis, tell me right now. Are you only after her because she's gay?

MixaMax

No. I think I love her.

Short&Hoofy

*yay*!

MixaMax

I know. I'd have liked to have this talk with you face to face... You were always busy, and then there was the site, Jade... it never was a good time. I didn't mean to hide it from you, I just sort of made a decision on my own. You were never supposed to find out. I just... I just had too high hopes after the meetup. She had just broken up (sort of) with YouKnowWho so I thought I could move in.

Short&Hoofy

That's precisely why you should have asked me! Being there after a breakup is the worst thing! You can't replace somepony. Not like that. You just marched straight into the friend zone. :(

MixaMax

I know. I'm stupid. And at the same time they're a couple made in heaven. There's no way I can compete with YouKnowWho. She's just too perfect.

Short&Hoofy

That bag of feathers? Ha! She's not half as pretty as you!

MixaMax

Err, let's get serious, sis. :/ I had a crush on her for a while in middle school.

Short&Hoofy

Wait, what?!

MixaMax

That time I asked you to buy me a scooter? Sometimes I wonder how you ever got Jade :/

Short&Hoofy

Luck, that's what it is. Just tell her, okay? It's absurd I'm the one giving advice, but at worst that's one rejection less till your match.

Jade

Stupidness aside, are you sure, sis? Let's imagine everything goes your way. RRBB stops pining after YouKnowWho and happens to be secretly in love with you. What then? That filly has serious issues. And I mean like serious serious. All her life believing she's a freak. Living with that pain and hatred, oh and let's not forget she's used to having everything her way. Not sure if that's a coping mechanism or her characters, but either way you'll be in for a tough time.

Think about it. Equestria is a huge place. You'll meet someone who loves you and who loves you back. Someone better than RRBB.

MixaMax

I love her. And I have been coping. Who do you think she turns to when PaintDrop isn't there? Or when she gets into a fight with PaintDrop? Right now I just wish she'd notice me.

Short&Hoofy

Short, I can tell you from experience that no one ever notices anypony. If I hadn't said the things I did or written that story confession do you think Max would have paid any attention to me?

Jade

I really don't approve of this. I think it's a huge mistake and you'll only get hurt... a lot. Not to mention that RRBB will get hurt as well in the long run. She's perceptive as a brick right now, but at some point she'll realize and that will hit her hard. Sometimes I wish you could be more of a *yay* like her. You'd feel a bit better.

If you're sure, go ahead. Just be ready for the hurt. Either way I'll be here for you.

MixaMax

I know. *hug* I'll try to tell her after school. Wish me luck I guess.

Short&Hoofy

Good luck! Love you, sis.

MixaMax

If you're anything like your sister, RRBB doesn't stand a chance ;)
