Dear Sunset Shimmer,

They read your suicide note last week. Principal Celestia let me see it up close when I asked her if I could. You signed it in blood. I'm so sorry.

You know, I've been thinking. When you called me at Fluttershy's house and told me you were thinking of ending it, I assumed you were just considering it, that you didn't actually plan to do it. For a while I assumed you had just decided to do it in the spur of the moment after Rainbow and Rarity yelled at you.

But you wrote a note. You'd been planning this for a while before you actually did it. It said you were hanging yourself, though. Was that what you planned to do? I couldn't tell how old the note was but the blood signature was at least a few weeks. How long had you been thinking about hanging yourself like that?

I'm really sorry, Sunset. I should have been there for you. We should have been there for you. We all really miss you.

Your friend,

Twilight Sparkle
