Sonata squinted in the dimly lit office as she sat in a chair in front of Vice-Principal Luna’s large desk. Pale ribbons of light that managed to sneak past the room’s blinds where the only light source, and the lights combined with the shadows of the blinds created a look reminiscent of a window blocked by evenly spaced bars.
Sonata shifted uncomfortably in her seat. The almost prison like feel to the room was bad enough, but the Vice-Principal herself loomed over her with an almost expressionless gaze.
“Now, do you know why you’re here?” Luna asked,
Sonata offered Luna a weak smile. “Is it because you need to replace a light bulb and you need someone to hold a ladder?”
“You’re not in a position to make jokes.”
Sonata frowned. “No… but it’s really dark in here! I mean… It’s light outside! Do you need help opening your blinds without making them go all sideways and crooked? Because I can help you try, but I usually need help from Aria or Ada—”
Luna pursed her lips ever so slightly and narrowed her eyes.
Sonata’s eyes widened. “Did… did Miss Cheerio Bee send me here because I was eating leprechaun cereal in class and she’s sworn to destroy her hated rival and his magical marshmallow cereal?”
Luna’s stern look cracked a bit as she gave Sonata a perplexed look. “No, but you shouldn’t eat cereal in Ms. Cheerilee’s class. Or any class for that matter.”
“Oh…” Sonata said meekly as she looked up at Luna with worry, slouched, and clasped one hand over the other and placing them between her legs. She looked very much like she was hoping she would shrink until she disappeared.
Luna sighed and shook her head. “Perhaps if I remind you that while Canterlot High does not have a strict dress code, we do still have some basic requirements about what the students show up to school wearing… or not wearing in this case.”
“Oh! So it’s because I forgot to wear a skirt or pants today!” Sonata said as she looked down at her bare legs and pink panties.
Luna nodded solemnly. “Yes, I’m afraid so.”
Sonata gulped as she slowly leaned over, picked up an open box of ‘Lucky Charms’, and held it up for Luna to see. “Maybe if I share some of my magical cereal we can forget this whole thing?”
Luna narrowed her eyes slightly then peered into the box. Her narrowed eyes were soon joined by her furrowed brow. “You already picked out all the marshmallows, didn’t you?”
Beads of sweat began to appear on Sonata’s forehead her pupils shrank to the size of pin-pricks. She held the box in her left hand as she bent down to pick up another box with her right. “Maybe my friend the Captain can help… sweeten the deal…”
Oh, Sonata, never stop being adorably ditzy.
Best. Bribe. EVAR.
The Captain is evil. He will cut the roof of your mouth.
The funniest part is Luna's comment about the marshmallows. Implications!!
I like to think that Aria and Dagi were going to tell her, but when they saw what she did to the Lucky Charms, they decided not to.
Poor Sonata, doesn't she realizes she's supposed to offer her rare portraits of american presidents (or whatever political figures they have in EG)?
"Miss Cheerio Bee"
What is it about stupidity that can be adorable under the right circumstances? Pat/maternal instinct? We see someone do something in a particular flavor of dumb and want to pat them on the head and tell them the right way to do it? I don't know, but it would explain some of Sonata's fanbase.
What about the fruit loop or frosty flakes girl I'm sure Luna would one or the other
as/and her pupils shrank...
I thought Sonata's excuse for not wearing clothes would be something like "But it's laundry day!"
You know, in most of the EqG I've read, Fluttershy is seen as a teacher's pet; she's not disruptive, much too polite not to study or do homework, generally gets good grades. But this chapter made me realize Miss Cheerio Bee must hate Fluttershy, since she's always sneaking Angel into classes, and I bet Cheerio hates dealing with that rabbit and his Trix.
get some applejacks or some ka-booms and it's a deal

Though the most valuable one does not in fact have a president on it.
(Neither does the tenner, but that's not as desired as much. Like, 90% less desired.)
Damn, this was too funny Sonata is the best.
Reminds me of when I ate waffles in Advanced Chemistry Class in high school.
Damn, I'd love to see Sonata walking around with no pants.
Wow... this is BEYOND Pinkie level of weirdness. I love it so much.
5572459 You'd be suprised.
Moral of the story: Don't eat all the marshmallows! They might be useful later!
5572299 Obviously the world of EG has President Hasbro
Yep, she has earned her title.
"Noticable Alternate Pinkie Pie" that's for sure.
Ha. Cheerio Bee. Makes me think of Skoon's Cheeribee set.
THE LULZ I CANT TAKE IT!!!
This whole story is probably among the top three funniest things I've read on the site.
Also, thanks for reminding me, I was going to check out Serial Experiments Lain at some point. Is it any good?

Read Godel, Escher, Bach before hand.
5573384 I already have
5572399 Just... just take it my likes, lulz, faves... JUST TAKE ALL OF THE INTERNET FOR THAT COMMENT
Huh? What-even-I don't-How-why-PANTIES?
Screw it. Just take a like and a fav.
...Serial Expeirment's Lain title reference, silly Sonata.... all the dazzlings are bloody insane in this one and i love it.
that does it. Favorited!
lol No pants... nice job Sonata, nice job.
5731167 Yet also a breakfast cereal reference.
7192029 For all their craziness, I could live with these girls, not for the sex (Oh I don't doubt there would be) but for the sheer fun value of their antics.
Sonata would either be the best room mate ever, or the 5'th worst. I'm not sure which.
Anyone for Chocolate Frosted Sugar Bombs?
What the fuck is wrong with your brain?
I've seen enough hentai to know where this is going, and I like it.
Dang, I think Luna might have actually gone for it if the marshmallows were still in there.

Who are numbers 1 through 4?
BAHAHAHA!!!!
Honestly, if I was Sonata, I think I could have won Luna over with a box of Gramma Brownie's Chocolate Chunker Wunker Bunkers (Now with even bigger chunks of chocolate chunks). I hear the chocolate chunks are bigger than ever.
