6th Dress

Good day, everypony!  I do hope you're all doing well after... whatever that was that happened this week.  I'm afraid there wasn't much I could do to help, since whatever happened seemed to have left the victims quite beyond the bounds of fashion or reason.  However, I'd like to do something to make it up to all of you.  Borrowing a page from Pinkie Pie's book, I would like to cordially invite you all for afternoon tea this Friday.  The family I live with here has been quite gracious since my arrival, so I hope none of you will mind that I'm extending an invite to them as well.  It would be rather rude of me to throw a party in their house without inviting them, after all.  Please bring whatever you like if there is something specific you'd like to eat, though I am already planning on supplying tea and cucumber sandwiches myself.  Pinkie Pie, I'm looking at you in particular to provide our dessert selections - I'm sure you won't let us down.  I hope to see you all there!

I've also invited Princess Celestia, so it goes without saying that everypony should be dressed to impress and on their best behavior!  Remember, Friday afternoon!  Don't be late!

[For anyone in the family who's curious, Rarity's spent the better part of the day in her room.  The sound of the sewing machine has been steadily humming from behind closed doors, and anyone listening closely can hear the telltale sparkling sound of Rarity's magic as she continues working on whatever it is she's doing in there, as well as periodic comments to herself.]

Let's see... I'll need something appropriate to wear.  I wouldn't want to disappoint Princess Celestia!  Oh, but perhaps I should make dresses for the others as well - I wouldn't want to outshine them too much.

[Action; around Mayfield; throughout the week]

[When she's not in her room sewing dresses and things together, Rarity's out and about in Mayfield looking for party supplies.  This is of course made difficult by the drones' annoyingly persistent claims that she is a common housepet, but she's managed to make things work well enough.  Anyone near the shops will see Rarity dressed in a black cloak and dark sunglasses, watching drone shopkeepers closely and sneaking into the stores while their backs are turned.  Out of pure necessity, she's learned how to skulk about unnoticed, quickly gather together the things she needs, and leave appropriate payment near the cash register with her magic before running out of the store again.  It's working, but it's a bit tiring, especially since she's pulling it all behind her in a little red wagon as she moves between stores.  Feel free to run into her at any point in this process.]
