♦ Second Stitch ♦ Rarity ♦ | Video | Ecruteak City
[Rarity is not sobbing this time when the feed flickers on. What a relief, right? Instead she just looks tired, and perhaps a little bit wistful. Her Meowth is curled up in her lap fast asleep.]
So... I have a bit of a dilemma. You see, I used to be a well known designer when I lived in Equestria. I would make beautiful, beautiful dresses; it ( Read more... )

[Okay, okay. Woah, woah. Rarity inhales slowly, feeling her teeth involuntarily grind together before she finally exhales. Keep it together, Rarity. There’s no need to throw a fit over something that happened in the past. Last winter to be exact. Let’s not scare Fluttershy with a huge rage-fit. But ooooh. That WHOEVER-IT-WAS… She’d give him a piece of her mind if he ever had the misfortune of running into her.
She closes her eyes for a moment, clearly holding something back. How DARE that person. How dare he. She releases another breath and then she reopens her eyes again.]
I… I see.
[Her Meowth begins to wiggle in her arms. Too, tight! Too tight! She glances down at it and immediately loosens her grip and the poor creature relaxes a bit, heaving a couple of heavy breaths.] Sorry, Citrine…
[Another sigh.]
Oh, darling… That is terrible. He must have been a dreadful person and I would… [Temper, Rarity. Mind it, please. She swallows and then clears her throat.] …the important thing is that he didn’t hurt you. And… you haven’t seen him again, have you?

Oh, he was sent back to his world a while ago. But... um... that's not entirely why I'm telling you this.
[Ready for a second trip?]
See, sometimes, people come back to this place... And if he does... I don't want you... I don't want any of you to be mad at him. He's just a young human, and I met him again after he robbed me... I think if I showed him enough kindness, he'd know what he did was wrong, and we could all be friends.

[Have yet another sigh, though it's followed by a smile.]
But darling... Sometimes even warmest heart cannot reach somepony who is that mindlessly cruel. But if that is what you want... I cannot promise that I won't be mad at him, but I will spare him any vengeance on my part.
Because if you are right about him, then we need to be available to teach him some manners. And... of course, offer him our friendship as well. [Even as incredibly difficult as it would be after knowing what he did...]
In the meantime... do be careful, darling. And please let me--and everypony else know if anything like that happens again.

Oh, Rarity, thank you so much!
[She moves to hug her friend - oh, but she doesn't want to squish the kitty. She quickly thinks, and instead decides to hold onto Rarity's arm and press her forehead to Rarity's shoulder. Good enough.]
I promise, I'll be careful, and I'll be honest with all of you. You're all so kind...
Reply
[Aw. Rarity's smile grows and she shifts her Meowth into one arm so that she can wrap her freed arm around Fluttershy. An awkward hug, but it works!]
You're the kindest of us all. I don't know anypony else with a heart as big as yours.[Perhaps too kind sometimes, but Rarity doesn't really consider that a bad thing.]
I'm so glad that you're here... All of you. It would have been hard enough adapting to this place alone.
Reply
I'm glad too... I missed you all so much... You're the best friends a pony could ask for.

[She rests her head against Fluttershy's, content to just stand there with her friend. Everything was alright and she couldn't be happier. For now.]
That and there are most certainly not very many others that I would enjoy going to the spa with every week. Speaking of which... I am really going to miss that. We should find something else to do on a weekly basis if we can't visit a spa.
Reply
I haven't found any spas here... But, then, I haven't been everywhere...
[This gives her some thought.]
Do humans have spas? Would would they do in them?
[They don't have hooves, so what do they pony-pedi? Shock and awe, good lady.]
Reply
I hope humans have spas! Or at least maybe a salon? My hair could definitely use a trim. And my nails... Oh! They chip so easily! I need a--what is it--a manicure?
[Something those dreadful Diamond Dogs needed. Ugh! The thought of those nails touching her beautiful white coat was enough to make her cringe.]
Sitting in a hot tub for a good half-hour would feel wonderful too.
Reply
But Rarity, you look lovely... Even as a human, you're always very pretty...
[As proof, she'll pet-pet Rarity's mane - er, hair again.]
Reply
Oh... thank you. You really are too kind, Fluttershy. And you're also lovely and graceful in everything that you do.

Her name is Citrine. Citrine, this is Fluttershy. You behave now, dear.
['Citrine' glances back at Rarity, giving her a long look--something that it becoming habitual, before looking up at Fluttershy again. She seems nice enough! Nice and quiet. Much quieter than Rarity.]
Reply
Citrine... what a lovely name. It's so nice to meet you.
[Ever so delicately, Fluttershy takes Citrine, cradling her gently in her arms and tenderly stroking her between the ears.]
What a sweet little thing... You're a good Pokemon, yes you are...
Reply
She really is wonderful. Especially for putting up with me when I first arrived. She tried her very hardest to comfort me...
[Rarity's just gonna stand back out of the way. It was always so fun to watch Fluttershy interact with animals.]
Reply
You comforted Rarity? You are such a kind Pokemon... You're so lucky to be with Rarity... Why, if I was rarity's Pokemon, I'd look so pretty every day, just like you...
