7:00 am: Rarity wakes up to alarm clock by bedside incessantly ringing. Blasts clock off the table with magic.
7:10 am: Shower with high quality shampoo and lathering gel. Not fond of soap as it is apparently “murder to a good pony’s skin”.
7:45 am: Breakfast of carrot and daisy pastries.
8:00 am: Goes back to bedroom to freshen up and put on false eyelashes. Silently wonders if friends still judge her for it after they once discovered her secret while being interrogated over a cake related incident.
9:30 am: After spending what an ordinary pony would describe as ‘too long’ in the mirror, Rarity goes downstairs to open up her shop, the Carousel Boutique. Remembers that she needs to finish up on a glittered suit for a client.
10:00 am: While working on suit, first customer of the day walks in. Rarity shocked to discover that pony looks almost exactly like her, down to mane style, colour and even cutie mark, except the customer is a Pegasus instead of a unicorn.
10:01 am: Shocked, Rarity asks about how pony looks so similar. Pony then explains that look is apparently latest in fashion style. She then requests some suitable outdoor socks for agricultural work.
10:03 am: Finally getting over shock, Rarity uses sewing machine to fashion handsome looking red front socks for client. After receiving payment, customer is picked up by another Rarity doppelganger, a male unicorn.
10:04 am: Visibly freaked out, Rarity dashes outside of store, to discover that every single pony out and about all have white coats and purple manes. Some of them are other regular ponies Rarity recognises from frequent visits regarding patching up clothes.
10:10 am: Rarity stands on top of box (which she summons with magic), before standing on top, demanding what is wrong with everypony, and to look and dress differently. Is then told by passing unicorn that she isn’t, so why should they?
10:15 pm: Rarity rushes back inside of Boutique, on the verge of hyperventilation. Deduces that everypony is going through extremely unusual (and very specific) phase (that or everypony has gone completely mad). She then decides to set an example and act unique.
10:16-11:30 am: Spends next few moments cutting mane and tail short, as well as applying dye for unicorns onto tale, making them light blue. Rarity isn’t sure, but she thinks she saw something fly past window very briefly, but decides to ignore it. Satisfied with job, Rarity decides to try and carry on as normal.
11:40 am: Coming downstairs, Rarity comes down to find Rainbow Dash – who is sporting the exact same mane and tale style and colour as Rarity’s new look, and is resolutely white like her. Is cheerfully greeted by the Pegasus, who then proceeds to try and make her greeting heard over high pitched scream over next 30 seconds.
11:42 am: Feeling air in lungs rapidly leave her, Rarity decides that now would be an appropriate time to cease screaming. She demands to know why everypony, including Rainbow, looks exactly like her. Rainbow appears confused, stating that she has always looked this way. Rarity then spends next few minutes raving how that cannot possibly be true, while Rainbow Dash nods and insists that it’s true.
12:15 pm: Deciding that today may not be a good day to get work done, Rarity decides to use rest of day to try and find out the reason behind “copycats” and to try and make herself seem unique again. Nervously telling Rainbow Dash that she’s “awfully busy”, she makes panicked dash back upstairs.
12:25 pm: Going back to mirror, Rarity wonders if going natural would yield any results. She restores her eyelashes to their original state and puts on standardized plain mane wig (black).
12:35 pm: Trotting downstairs, Rarity takes walk outside – and finds that absolutely everypony is sporting a similar look. Walks extremely rigidly and rapidly back to bedroom.
12:40 pm: To experiment and see whether if ponies are in fact just blindly following latest trend or are in fact doing it for completely strange reasons, Rarity decides to sport deliberately “unfabulous look”, sporting an eye patch, leather boots with spikes and strange dark eye shadow and makeup, giving impression of rock star who is clearly trying too hard.
1:10 pm: Discovers by looking outside of window that all the ponies outside are now nowhere to be seen. Nervously making her way downstairs, she quickly and fervently hopes that somepony has the common sense to not go out of their way to deliberately look awful.
1:15 pm: Any hope of a sensible pony is quickly dashed as she spots everypony walking outside again, looking like wannabe rock stars. Loudly despairing about how everypony is willing to look like “an extremely seedy musical washout”, somepony in the distance shouts about their offense at “looking like one”. Spots pony with assorted electric guitars and touring wagon. She quickly apologises for any offense caused.
1:20 pm: Goes back into bedroom, resolutely deciding that she should probably not come outside until she can think of a suitable look repulsive enough to not be copied.
1: 21-5:00 pm: Spends next few hours in darkened room thinking/moping, until she suddenly has the most brilliant “i-DEE-YA!” she has ever had.
5:30 pm: Rarity now is wearing a purple mane wig and false tail, and has removed black makeup, looking for all intents and purposes exactly how she looked at the start. She wonders if anypony would “dare to be seen with last season’s fashion”.
5:31 pm: Comes downstairs, trembling.
5:32 pm: Everypony outside is now looking completely different from each other, and to Rarity. Everypony is now sporting their original colour, including, Rarity notices, some regular customers. Joyously exclaims that she is “freakishly unique” again, before blushing with embarrassment, realising what she just said.
5:40 pm: Goes out exploring town just to make sure. Suddenly remembers that Rainbow Dash apparently had no memory of being a different colour or sporting a different look. Decides to go find her. She then remembers that Twilight got a collector’s omnibus edition of Daring Do, and deduces Rainbow must be at Golden Oaks library.
6:00 pm: Goes straight to library, and spots Rainbow Dash going inside. Rarity follows. Twilight greets the two, and voices how she didn’t expect Rarity to swing by. Rarity then wonders if Twilight would know of any explanation behind strange and spontaneous fashion spree.
6:01 pm: Explaining about how everypony was acting and looking really weirdly and how Rarity had to go through several traumatising fashion statements before ridding herself of the menace, Twilight goes through several books with dragon assistant Spike before finding an explanation. Rainbow leaves with Daring Do omnibus in hooves, saying goodbye to Twilight, and muttering about how being white and blue would be “totally gross”.
6:15 pm: In book “Freaky Weeky: What Could Be Causing Your Day to Go to Tartarus?” by Unlucky Number, Twilight says that Rarity may have brain-hermits in her house, which apparently research the owner of the house they inhabit by manipulating a pony’s senses to see how they would react to different situations, in the name of research.
6:30 pm: Assured by Twilight that brain hermits can be driven out of a house by being discovered, and will never return to that household again, Rarity storms back to house to confront pests.
7:05 pm: Discovers strange pink creature in Sweetie Belle’s bedroom underneath bed. Deduces that it is the brain hermit. Glares at hermit with venomous look. Hermit lets out frightened hiss before grabbing large emerald by bedside, breaking window with it, and escaping outside.
7:10 pm: Comes downstairs, extremely satisfied with conclusion of incident. Sees Twilight at door, who says she saw the hermit flee out of town. Deduces that hermit was probably researching if Rarity could be made to do stupid things when under duress.
7:15 pm: Reflecting on fact that she cut tail and mane short (“oh what was I thinking!? It won’t grow back for WEEKS!”) as well as dressed like a desperate musical sell-out, Rarity considers experiment to have been a success. Decides to call it a day early to recuperate. Thanking Twilight for her help, she staggers to bedroom in relief.
7:30 pm: Dives into bed, grateful that awful day is finally at end. Suddenly realises that everypony’s perspective was totally different to hers, and wonders if anypony would be completely stupefied by the fact she appeared in public wearing black makeup and leather boots. Panic attack ensues.
7:40 pm: Awful daydream of being arrested by Canterlot Royal Guard for “crime against fabulousness” is interrupted by knock on door.
7:41 pm: Rarity answers door. It is a regular customer (Bon Bon) who comments that Rarity looked “absolutely awesome” in black, and whether she could do the same with her and her friends. Rarity faints.
