Despite having lived for hundreds of years, Adagio, Aria and Sonata have never heard of Valentine's Day. Now that they know the basics, what better way to celebrate the idiotic holiday than taking over Canterlot High?

No matter what they try, though, Adagio and Aria are having no luck collecting valentines. How can they conquer the school like this? And where's Sonata gone off to?

The answer likely involves a taco or two. And maybe tequila. And definitely Pinkie Pie.

OMG. Liked and upvoted already.

Now to read it ... You'd better not let me down, Present.

He don't.

Hope Pinkie and Sonata enjoy being massively hung-over the next day. And possibly reprimanded for drinking in school, never mind their ages.

Man, this story has more WTF than even my stuff does, :applejackconfused:

Also:

"Dem hips?"

"Dem hipth."

I died, :rainbowlaugh:

Huh. Saint Valentine's circa third century AD. Didn't think the sirens had been banished quite that long ago. Still, nice use of their immortality. I haven't seen a lot of stories make use of that.

Dang it, Twist, stop encouraging the tyrants.

Pinkie and Sonata's interaction is made of pure what, and I love it.

Aria as the sirens' lyricist? I like it. No wonder she's so grumpy; she knows how little she needs the others, how much they need her, and how little appreciation she gets. Coco Pummel makes far less sense, but that doesn't make her any less awesome.

Time is an illusion, Sonata. Tuesday doubly so.

Well, that was entertaining, though I'm having trouble identifying the blue-haired boy. I suppose I should be thankful that the matter of Celestia's office wasn't transformed to tacos on the atomic level. Thank you for a most enjoyable tortilla full of WTF.

Oh, the blue-haired boy is Thunderbass, part of Flash Sentry's band. I couldn't work his name into the text, but there's every chance no one would have recognized it anyway.

Also, trufax: I have a story idea that follows one of the sirens, I won't say who, as she takes part in various historical scenes. The three of them were thrown into Earth's past at around the same time as Equestria's, and not only have they lived history, but their influence over humanity is the reason everyone has Crayola-colored skin in EQG-world. If I ever end up writing that story, this one will qualify as perhaps the strangest foreshadowing ever.

That was worth reading. :D And no, my idea is considerably more serious. Unlike, say, this story.

Something something Sonata's taco.

6314675
Yeah, it didn't fit the theme of the story it was originally written for either, :derpytongue2:

I'd totally read this one you've hinted at though; it sounds interesting... in fact... (click) There! Now I won't miss it, :pinkiehappy:

Well, that was charmingly stupid.

OH MY GOSH A SONATA DUSK STORY EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

"A contest, you say? Are you thinking what I'm thinking, Aria?"

I think so, Adagio, but this time you wear the tutu. :trollestia:

Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu....didn't notice the random tag so I didn't prepare my self

*Inhales*

Followed for this...

Cute story. It didn't end the way I expected at all (Sonata gets more valentines than Adagio and Aria), but maybe that's a good thing (or maybe not, I'll never know). The situation with Adagio and Aria, on the other hand, went exactly how I expected it to. Also, I never would have thought Adagio was the type to make such a big deal out of homophobia.

One more thing:

Principal Celestia always visits Crystal Prep ahead of the Friendship Games.

You do know that they're probably not actually going to be called Friendship Games, right?

6314609 You have to write that story! I command you to write that story!

I don't see why they wouldn't be, but then that's why I write these stories. :B

That last line :rainbowlaugh:

Luna clucked her tongue and shook her head. "Again?"

What do you mean? The trailer has everyone talking and singing about the friendship games, and it's in the title. Why wouldn't they be called the friendship games?

6317915 I havn't seen the trailers or anything. So sue me. And the second movie was called Rainbow Rocks, but none of the events were called that.

Pinkie rushed to her feet, hand whipping into her hair. Something emerged in her grasp, a square bottle that glinted in the dull light. She slammed it down on the desk with a clunk.

"Now I have someone to drink all this tequila with!"

PINKIE NO

PINKIE YOU ARE LIKE 17 IN HUMAN YEARS

"Y'mean like a tostada?"

Sonata's eyes got huge. "I don't know what that is, but it sounds amazing."

"It's like a Mexican pizza."

The two are nothing alike! A tostada is made using a tostada shell, one red scoop of beans, a pump of red sauce, lettuce, cheese, and tomatoes. A Mexican pizza is made using a red scoop of beans and one scoop of meat on a Mexican pizza shell, then you take the second one, twist it, place a ladle of pizza sauce on top, an ounce of cheese, tomatoes, and put it in the steamer. Then you cut it and send it out the drive thru.

. . .

Sorry, had a Taco Bell moment. Once you work there for two years, you kind of have that happen. Anyway, this story was hilarious! Very rarely do stories make me laugh, but this did the trick.

EDIT: Also, I'm happy Pinkie can pronounce "tostada" correctly. Everyone that comes through drive thru where I live says "tostado" and "burrita." It's so fucking annoying.

"HEY NAW Y'ALL GOT ONE O' THEMS TOE-STAY-DERS IN THURR? AH LAHKS EM WITH MAH BURRITUHZ"

It's possible Pinkie is talking out of her drunken ass. :V

There's was one dude came in and called it a "taste-ta-do" once. I nearly had an aneurism.

Just watched the new short, can confirm Friendship Games are Friendship Games. :B Just FYI.

Something about this didn't sit right with me and now I remember why: there's an IDW comic saying that they were sent over in modern times.

... despite the fact that Starswirl is the one who sent them.

... either there's some Narnia time dilation going on here, or Starswirl threw them forward through time.

Eh, comics are soft canon. :B

I'd ask where all the tacos came from, but...let's face it, it's Pinkie and Sonata.

Abandon fic. :applejackunsure:

Vice Principal Luna sat bolt upright in her desk chair. She hid the toys behind her back, though it was already too late. Her older sister leaned against her door frame, face awash in disapproval.

Ah the pure chaos that is high school. Just wonderful in it's insanity.
