Sweetie Belle wishes to help Rarity with a dress order, but in doing so, she discovers a room in Carousel Boutique. A room which holds a secret that could shatter her view of her sister.


Made for /mlp/'s daily 30-min writing prompt, sadly it took over half an hour to make this.

........... So what was the secret?

4707308 Rarity made some truly horrible dresses back when she was young, and kept making them because she believes in them, even though society doesn't like them.

I'll admit it... I lol'd. Have a like and a :moustache:

4707323 Thanks for reading my story. :twilightsmile:

4707320 For a second there I thought she was stallion.:twilightoops: That would have blown my mind.

4707368 I probably had half a dozen scenarios for how to end this story. Most involved her having a weird, out-of-character hobby that helped her unwind.
In the end I chose the "she used to make awful dresses" approach, hopefully it still came as a surprise.

Better than what I thought but I think that Sweetie Belle's reaction is a bit over the top for clothes....

I really don't get it... was the secret and outfit? Or she was a gladiator?? WHAT?

4707559 You are underestimating how awful these clothes are.
In all seriousness, though, that was the intended effect.

4707578 Back when Rarity went to Fashion school she made some, let's say, bold statements that didn't fly too well with society. She still believes that her work back then was good.

4707614 :rainbowlaugh: Laughing so hard right now..

Darn, I thought Sweetie Belle was going to find Rarity's bell bottom pants, print shirt and mirror ball.

We all have to start somewhere Sweetie, this was cute. :twilightsmile:

That was wierd. But it was good I thought it was going to be something inappropriate like a 3-

“I still maintain that I could have revolutionised Equestrian Fashion if it weren't for those snobs at Fillydelphia's Fashion School.”

Those fools at the institute laughed at her and called her mad, but she'll show them... she'll show them all! :raritystarry:

Suddenly Inspiration Manifestation makes a whole lot more sense now. :raritywink:
Nice story, have an up-vote.

Yep, that's a Rarity moment, alright. Enjoyable read, and gave cause for a wry smile at the end. Have a thumb and a fave. :twilightsmile:

What was in the room?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

4708367 Apparently, it was an ugly dress. A yellow paid shirt with green and something polka dots. And gladiator sandals...

Jesus christ that is a horrible image in mah brain right now...

We must get Sweetie Belle into a nice soothing pink, stat!

I thought Sweetie Belle was going to find a collection of "toys", if you know what I mean...:raritywink:

4708367 end of the story they tell you

I think it's fair to say that despite the “Everyone” tag, we all thought this was going to be something a lot worse.

Fair play author, you have my favourite.

I seriously thought it was going to be a Dragon Dildo collection.

Did not expect that. :twilightoops:
My reaction:

Good story though. :twilightsmile:

I blame her father's hideous flowery shirt. Having a parent who is the equine equivalent of Essex Man is bound to have an effect on a young mind, twisting it towards the debilitatingly tacky.

Euurghh...

CCC

...I was half expecting the room to be filled with pictures of Trenderhoof (and/or Prince Blueblood). With maps with his travels marked on them, a bit of his hair in a jar, and stuff like that.

4710189
I was expecting a rape dungeon. :unsuresweetie:

I was expecting either a room full of dead bodies or some drugs. Not saddles.

Well, it's not nearly as bad as that "Dark" fic that someone else wrote where Rarity was keeping a basement full of...
... ... ...
Huh. That's weird. That section of my memory appears to be stained with brain bleach and I can't get it off.

4712060 Oh, are you talking about The Secret Life of Rarity?
I really liked that fic. :raritywink:

I expected something like this. 'Cause reasons. :derpytongue2:

4712929
F**K SPOILERS!!!

I knew it was going to be something like that! :rainbowlaugh:

:rainbowlaugh::rainbowlaugh::rainbowlaugh:
This is gold. :rainbowlaugh:
Fav and follow for that one! :raritywink:

How does this story not have the comedy tag?

4716137 To keep the ending a surprise. :ajsmug:
Although it is somewhat foreseeable that it's a bait and switch ending.

4716153 Thanks, I'm glad you enjoyed it.

No wonder she was so horrendously distressed to the point of psychotic breakdown when her friends made her make those monstrosities called dresses for them, it reminded her of a dark and horrendously shameful moment in her past

Hehe this was a cute one, and nice li'l twist ending. Older fans would think it was something far more "deviant."

That's all it was? A stupid shirt and skirt?

EDIT: Rarity could be in Cheese Sandwich's next music video with that attire. His newest song is called "Tacky". See what I did there? :)

again“I don’t even know what to call it, Rarity.”

space between again, and ".

Poor Rares.

After reading the description I double checked for gore or sex tags...

It was well written, but a bit over the top in terms of a reaction from sweetie belle.

So much so that it made me laugh a bit.

4721284 Thank you, that was the intended effect. :twilightsmile:

LOL Jesus Christ! It started off like it was something like,,, I don't know,,, rarity skinning ponies for they're hide or a torture room, but a bright yellow plaid shirt with a green and purple polka dot short skirt?! :pinkiegasp: :facehoof: :ajbemused: :rainbowlaugh: :pinkiehappy: :twilightblush: :duck: :rainbowderp: :pinkiesmile: :applejackconfused: :derpyderp1: :trollestia: :unsuresweetie: :rainbowlaugh:

OMG, still! I was preparing myself for blood and gore,,, then got shocked as it flashed into an outfit!!!

That made me laugh a little harder than I intended
