“Thanks again for hosting this month’s sleepover, Twilight,” Fluttershy said. “I’d happily host at my house, but since we’re taking care of the tiger for the zoo in my room right now, it would be a little bit cramped.”

“Oh, it’s no problem Fluttershy,” Twilight said happily, passing mugs of hot chocolate to each of her friends. “Whenever my parents hear that I want to spend time with my friends, they really encourage it! Especially since I’m already accepted to Stancolts.”

“It’s just sucks that Sunset couldn’t make it tonight. She almost never misses sleepover night,” said Rainbow.

“Well, she said she was workin', didn’t she?” Applejack added. “I personally think it’s good to encourage hard work. It’s all about setting your priorities straight.”

“Yes, but I would think that if you plan an event on the same weekend of every month, it would be easier to schedule the night off.” Rarity said.

“You never know. What does Sunset even do?” Rainbow Dash asked.

“You know, now that I think about it. She never really talks about it much,” Twilight said, crossing her feet. “Didn’t she say that she streams or something?”

“Streams?” Rarity asked curiously.

“Yeah, it where you take your video games and put a video of yourself playing them on the internet.” Pinkie said. “It’s pretty popular. Plus you get to have LAN parties!”

“What kind of streams?” Rarity persisted.

“I dunno. Should we check it out?” Rainbow asked. “I’m sure if we search, we can probably find it. Twilight, do you have your laptop?”

“Oh yeah!” Twilight said, breaking out her pleb tier netbook. “Now lets see, the website is Spasm.tv, right?”

Rarity sighed in relief as the girls crowded around Twilight’s laptop.

“SunnyGirl4Life. That’s her, right?” Fluttershy asked.

“I think so. Check it ou-”

Twilight clicked the link, and her computer speakers came to life.

“YOU DEGENERATE FUCK. I BET YOU KISS GIRLS, FAGGOT. SUCK MY 10 FOOT DRAGON DICK, YOU FUCKING N-”

Twilight slammed her laptop closed, and blankly looked to the girls, each of them with an expression more vacant than the last.

“Well,” Fluttershy says softly. “That wasn’t… nice.”

Twilight opens the laptop again.

“GO TO KINKWOLF DOT COM AND USE PROMOCODE SUNNYGIRL FOR 25% OFF YOUR DRAGON COCK-”

And closed it again.

“Yeah,” Twilight said. “That’s her, alright.”

The girls moved away, silently.

“Should we tell her?” Rainbow Dash asked.

“I really think we should tell her,” Rainbow Dash persisted.

“We can’t,” Twilight said. “I told you. If we tell her, it’ll probably embarrass her like crazy.”

“Well, I mean,” Rarity added. “I’m sure there’s more embarrassing things to have been caught doing. I just don’t think it’s really our business darling. That’s how she makes her money, and she’s happy doing it.”

“Do you think if someone is yelling that much, that they’re really happy?” Pinkie asks.

“I mean, I saw this one movie where being talked down to and yelled at was really romantic,” Fluttershy said.

“Was it 20 Threads of Passion? Because we really need to stop talking about 20 Threads of Passion,” Rainbow Dash interjected. “That movie is trash.”

“You girls are all missin' the point,” AJ said, leaning in. “None of this is our business. Sunset clearly has a job that she… does. And that’s none of our business. She never seems upset by it. It’s not hurting her. It’s really not our business, y'all. So I say we keep our nose out of it.”

“I-I love 20 Threads of Passion…” Fluttershy mumbled.

“Hey guys, what are we talking about?” Sunset asked.

All six girls jumped out of their skin and did their best to relax.

“Oh, nothing just the sleepover, darling.” Rarity said. “We really missed you. Hopefully work wasn’t too hard.”

“Nah, just another slow night. Made some good tips though. I think I should be able to afford that new guitar soon,” Sunset said.

“Well that’s nice,” Rainbow said. “I’m sure the customers can get a bit… in your face sometimes.”

“Not as much as you’d think,” Sunset said. “Honestly, if you know how to handle them? It’s downright simple. It’s all about how to read the room.”

A silence fell over the table as Sunset began to dig into her salad lunch.

“So… what about the dragon dicks?” Fluttershy asked.

Sunset then suddenly transformed into a one-of-a-kind salad fountain that sprayed all of her friends with Caesar salad.

“Excuse me?” Sunset choked.

“What Fluttershy meant to say is,” Rarity leans in, “I’m sure they’re all just a bunch of… uh. Hicks!”

The six smile awkwardly at Sunset as she studies her friends carefully last night.

“Did you all tune into the stream on Saturday night?” Sunset asked.

“NO!” said half of them.

“Yes.” said the other half.

They all exchanged disappointed glances.

“We’re sorry, Sunset,” Twilight said with remorse. “We didn’t know that your stream would be… like that. And were concerned that when you found out that we saw, maybe you’d be embarrassed.”
“But we want you to know that we still really admire how hard you work, especially doing something you like,” Applejack said.

“You do like it, right?” Pinkie asked.

“Oh wow,” Sunset said. “Of course I love my job, girls. When I’m on stream… I get to put on a character. And the more I played around with characters, I found that people really liked the loud and angry girl gamer. People send me tips and I get to play games for money. The only thing that sucks is that when a new game comes out, I have to stream -that day- or else I lose my competitive edge.”

“That makes sense.” Twilight said.

“How much do you make?” Rainbow asked. “Not to be rude, but, just curious.”

“I dunno. $100 a night usually?”

“Oh darling, I make at least three times that on cams,” Rarity said.

The six blinked and looked at Rarity.

“What? I thought we were doing the whole ‘no judgement’ thing? Where did that go?”

“Either way. I’m happy you guys tuned in. It’s really cool to be able to share this stuff with friends, you know? Instead of keeping it secret,” Sunset said with a smile.

“Of course, Sunset,” Fluttershy said softly. “We all love you, and we’re happy to see you happy.”

“Mmmhmm!” the girls all agreed in unison.

“You girls are the best friends I could ever ask for,” Sunset said with a smile.

And so the girls dug back into their lunch.

“But the dragon dicks though,” Fluttershy asked.

“Oh they’re great. Want one? I have five.”

“Okay,” Rainbow said. “I’m out.”

And so the rest of the girls got up and left, leaving Fluttershy and Sunset to talk.
