-
"I dunno, man"
-
>Starlight frowns a little
-
>"Rainbow, if you lead our mercenaries to battle, I agreed that I'm going to surrender myself to you. I will keep my word, if you're worried about that"
-
"No! I trust you. Kinda. I mean, a lot, kind of. And uh..."
-
>Sweat begins to form on your forehead as you cast your spaghetti far and wide
-
>The elevator chimes softly as Luna walks out of it
-
>Her outfit looks more goth than yesterday, complete with frills and fishnet gloves adorning her arms up to her elbows
-
>"Hello everyone," Luna says, then stops. "Um, why are you girls standing around? Are you having a fight?"
-
"Oh hey look it's the girl of the hour"
-
>You shift aside, sensing an opportunity
-
>Luna smiles awkwardly
-
>"Ah, were we expected at the briefing? We apologize for our tardiness"
-
"Oh no no no, it's just that you are here. And Starlight is here. And you two need to get a room-- NO, I didn't mean it like that! I need to give you two some room, is what I tried to say--"
-
>Pinkie raises an eyebrow at you
-
"Wew, I'll be back in a bit. I need to powder my tits!"
-
>You nearly trip on the chair as you shuffle your way out, eyes fixated on your feet
-
-
--
-
-
>The fresh air fills your nostrils as you go through the creaky, rusty basement door
-
>There's nobody standing guard outside today, not even that homeless gopnik Gilda
-
>You make your way down an alleyway, constantly looking behind your back like a totally suspicious person
-
>Once out of sight, you whip out your Glim-Pad
-
>You're just about to tap on Sunset's contact when you receive a call from her
-
>You sigh, dreading the conversation you're about to have
-
>Swipe, tap, accept call
-
"Moshi moshi? Dashie desu"
-
>"That's cute," Sunset says, her voice flat. "Where have you been?? I've been worried sick about you!"
-
>You groan
-
"Whatever, mom"
-
>"Don't give me that. It's okay for friends to be worried about each other"
-
>Are you friends with her, though?
-
>You say nothing
-
>"Dash," Sunset continues. "Seriously, I was looking at your Location Garter updates and I saw several of you on the map for the whole night. I thought you had been kidnapped by some high-tech thugs or something! Where are you?"
-
"I can't tell you"
-
>A pause
-
>"You found Starlight, didn't you?"
-
"Well, kind of"
-
>"Are you in captivity?"
-
"No! She treated me pretty good. and I--"
-
>You nearly brag about how you totally jerked of to Starlight and then came all over her thigh, but decide that it's not the smartest idea
-
"--have Pinkie with me too. We're kinda working for Starlight for now"
-
>"Okay."
-
>Sunset mutters something on the other side, probably talking furiously to a tech or an advisor nun or something
-
>"I... Wow. I need to take this in for a moment."
-
"I didn't betray you or anything"
-
>"Okay," Sunset says, pausing for a moment. "Then what is your plan?"
-
"Starlight agreed to come with me if I do some missions for her. Some do-good stuff about helping the people of Low River or something"
-
>"First, do you trust her? Second, what does this job entail?"
-
>You chew your lip for a moment, thinking
-
"I trust her. She seems like she has her convictions in the right places, not to mention a whole group of people supporting her and looking up to her"
-
>You think back to how Luna's eyes glittered in admiration talking about 'Starlight-sama' and Starlight's 'Glimmer of Hope' blog page
-
"I think she'll keep her word. If not, I can just Rainbow Dash my way through!"
-
>You strike a pose even though Sunset can't see you on the phone
-
>Sunset giggles
-
>Dash, you just struck a pose didn't you?
-
"M-maybe"
-
>You're so cute. I wish I could see you right now..."
-
>Sunset's motherly gaze flashes in your mind
-
>You shiver in half disgust and half embarrassment
-
"Okay mom, sheesh"
-
>She giggles once more
-
>"Okay. So what does Starlight want you to do? It's nothing extreme, I hope?"
-
"Wh-what makes you say that?"
-
>"Escapee or not, she *was* a TwiCorp lackey for many decades."
-
>True, but...
-
>You remember what Starlight had told you about herself and her work at TwiCorp
-
>And the sense of dedication you got when she talks about helping the people of Low River District
-
>Princesses, should you tell Sunset about everything?
-
>Would it even be a fair and HONORABU fight if you did, leaving Starlight completely blind while letting Sunset know everything?
-
-
-
>What now?
