Gossip and rumor are some of the only things in Ponyville capable of outpacing Rainbow Dash. If the arrival of Zecora wasn't enough to prove this, then the day just following Twilight's entirely understandable species change, but just before her coronation would certainly clear any doubt. She began her first day with wings as she did most days, by visiting her friends, starting with Rarity to prepare them all for the coronation the next day; All was going well, and she was pleased that her new ensemble was well underway. However, just two steps out of the Carousel Boutique, she came across a hastily planned party thrown by Pinkie Pie, with most of the town in attendance. Surprisingly, despite the festive air she expected of a Pinkie party, each of the attendees were acting unusually morose. Searching out her most exuberant friend, Twilight soon received another shock. Instead of the beaming smile that normally graced Pinkie's face, tears were gathered in her eyes, and her countenance spoke of deep woe. Twilight quickly asked what the problem was, and received her third shock of the day. Each of the party-goers thought that Twilight, unbeknownst to her, was moving away to Canterlot, and this was her going away party. As she was wondering where her friend had picked up such an erroneous idea, Rarity stepped out of her workplace for a breath of fresh air. She followed much the same steps as Twilight had, and quickly made sense of the situation. She shouted over to her friends to clear up the misunderstanding. "Pinkie, you mustn't eavesdrop like that. Twilight merely was asking me about a dress change!"
