How's That For Memory Lane?

“Hey, remember when Rarity’s blouse exploded and her boobs spilled out in front of the whole class?” asked Rainbow Dash, nibbling at her sandwich. Rarity unceremoniously spewed milk from her mouth, accidentally drenching the girl across from her. Pinkie didn’t seem to mind, though. She just wiped her face clean and dug right back into her spaghetti.

Rainbow, Rarity, Pinkie, and Sunset Shimmer were sitting at lunch, enjoying a quiet meal before they had to go back and endure another few hours more of grueling schoolwork. It was a slow day for the girls, what with Applejack and Fluttershy on their Horticulture field trip and Twilight out sick for the day. For the first third of lunch, the girls were entirely silent, save for their initial greetings. Then, quite suddenly, Rainbow Dash mentioned the exploding blouse incident, much to Rarity’s dismay and Sunset’s amusement.

“Rainbow Dash!” exclaimed Rarity, aghast. “I thought we agreed never to talk of that again!”

“Yeah, we did,” agreed Rainbow. “But do you remember?”

“Of course I remember! It was the worst experience of my high school life!”

“Including the time I almost killed you and your friends with demon magic?” asked Sunset, a small grin on her face. Rarity grumpily stabbed her fork into her salad.

“Fine,” grumbled Rarity. “Perhaps the second worst experience.”

“Well, I don’t remember. Actually, I don’t think I was around for that,” said Sunset. “What’s the story there?” Rainbow Dash jumped up onto the table, a devious, mischievous glint in her eye.

“So, there we were, the very first day of freshman year,” said Rainbow Dash, quite epically. “Cheerilee gave us dumb first-day-busywork, like everyone always does on the first day of school. We were supposed to write an essay about ourselves and the stuff we’re good at, bonus points for reading it in front of the class. Rarity goes up and as she’s reading her essay, she throws her arm up and boom! Her blouse burst at the seams, and the whole class got to stare at her funbags.”

Rainbow fell back into her seat, satisfied both with the story and Rarity’s reaction to it. Her pale, pasty face was positively glowing red from embarrassment.

“May I explain just how that happened?” asked Rarity. “I made that blouse brand new for the coming school year, completely forgetting about things such as puberty and growth spurts. I miscalculated my measurements and…” Rarity grimaced, the terrible memory battering at her brain. Then, she remembered something. “And, if I do recall, Ms. Dash was among those staring. Wasn’t that what started your little crush on me?”

Sunset laughed, pausing when she realized that Rainbow was blushing. Then, when Sunset realized that Rarity wasn’t joking, she laughed even harder.

“Is she serious?” cackled Sunset. “You had a thing for Rarity?”

“Hey, anyone who saw those chesticles had a thing for Rarity,” grumbled Rainbow. “Plus, I’m already a perv. Rarity showing off her chest-beefers? I never stood a chance.”

“It was more than that, I assure you,” said Rarity. “She was absolutely in love with me, darling.” She shot Rainbow a teasing glance. “Unfortunately for her, I simply could not return the feelings.”

“I was not in love with you.”

“Oh? Do you remember when you stood outside my window at night with a boombox?” asked Rarity, stifling a giggle. “And you started singing along?” Rainbow’s face bloomed red. “Oh, you had just the sweetest little singing voice. I had to let you down easy.” Rainbow’s face burned like the sun, and she desperately wished for someone to take the attention off of her.

Then she noticed Pinkie, who was silently trying to burrow an escape through her pasta.

“Hey, Pinks. You’re being awful quiet over there,” noted Dash. “Why’s that?”

“Uh… Um… N-no reason!” lied Pinkie, poorly. She grabbed a fistful of pasta and shoved it in her mouth. “Schorry, mouf fuh!”

“Or maybe, just maybe… Maybe you’ve got an embarrassing story that you don’t want to come out,” teased Rainbow. “Let’s see… You’ve done some wild stuff over the years, Pinkie. What should we go with? The Pool Party Incident?”

Pinkie’s cheeks flushed red, and she shook her head vigorously.

“Okay… How about Fluttershy’s birthday party?”

“Nu-uh!” begged Pinkie, her mouth still full.

“Our first slumber party it is,” said Rainbow. Pinkie’s eyes grew wide as saucers, but couldn’t talk on account of her full mouth. “So, you remember when Pinkie invited us to our first ever sleepover at her house?”

“I do. Nothing really special happened, if I recall,” said Sunset. Rainbow shook her head.

“Sorry, Sunny. This was the first sleepover, before we even knew you,” said Rainbow. Rarity nodded, recalling the sleepover well. It was how she met some of her best friends, after all.

“That was when you had forgotten your sleeping bag, yes?” asked Rarity. Rainbow nodded.

“Yup. So, Pinks said she didn’t mind scooching over and sharing the bed with me,” chuckled Rainbow. Pinkie looked as though she wanted to melt into a puddle on the floor. “I don’t know what was happening with her that day, but—”

“I peed the bed, okay?!” exclaimed Pinkie, spewing little bits of spaghetti and tomato sauce everywhere. Rarity glared at her, wiping her face with a napkin as Pinkie finally swallowed what remained of her food. “I drank a lot of water and I was super-duper excited to hang out with all of you and I guess I just let loose!”

At this point, Sunset was straight-out guffawing at the collective misfortune of her three friends. After a bit, Rainbow joined in, followed by Pinkie, and even Rarity. For as embarrassing as the stories were, it was sort of fun to recall them. Soon, when the laughter died down, attention fell onto Sunset.

Sunset raised an eyebrow, waiting for someone to dare ask.

“So…?” Rainbow threw her hands up expectantly. “Spill it, Sunny. You’ve gotta have an embarrassing story to share with the class.”

“More embarrassing than the time I almost killed you and your friends with demon magic?” asked Sunset.

“Come on, that’s actually kinda badass. Something goofy or stupid.”

“You must have one, darling,” said Rarity with a knowing nod. “Embarrassing things happen to everyone. There’s no shame in sharing.”

“It’s only fair,” agreed Pinkie. “We told you ours! And we promise not to tell anyone!”

“I’m telling you, I don’t really have anything embarrassing.” Sunset considered it for a moment, trying to think of what could possibly be more embarrassing than losing her mind and blowing up the school.

When she finally remembered, she slammed her face against the table and let out a low, anguished whine.

“That’s what we like to hear,” said Rainbow, rubbing her palms together greedily. “C’mon, tell us, tell us, tell us!”

“Oh, this one is bad, guys,” groaned Sunset. “Like, really, really bad.”

“Well, duh! That’s why it’s fun to share!” said Pinkie. “Sure, we’re gonna laugh at you, but it’s okay cause you laughed at us!”

“It really is no big deal, darling,” said Rarity. “I doubt you could top my blouse story, anyway.” Sunset sighed, dragging her face from the table.

“I love you guys. You guys are my best friends,” said Sunset. The other three girls beamed. “But if you repeat what I tell you to anyone, I will kill you all in horrible and creative ways.”

“That’s fair,” said Rainbow. “Now, go!” Sunset sighed again, shaking her head . She couldn’t believe she was about to share this story.

“So, you guys know how I’m way into that anime-ish webshow, RWBY, right?” began Sunset.

“Yeah, it’s pretty good,” said Rainbow. “What’s so embarrassing about that?”

“Well, you remember when Ironwood fights for the first time?”


To say that Sunset was immersed in her show would be a massive understatement. She sat on her bed, huddled up with her blanket and nibbling on her Pop-Tart as she watched the absolute animated perfection unravel before her. About halfway through the episode, and Sunset was already dreading its end.

“Jeez, that’s a lot of Grimm,” said Sunset. She spoke the truth, with an almost uncountable number of monsters terrorizing the students on screen. As the numerous faceless robots fired at and were subsequently demolished by the beasts, a man called General Ironwood slowly began to walk forward.

“Ugh. This guy,” complained Sunset. “I hate Ironwood so much.”

The general’s pace increased to a quick jog, and eventually a full-out run. The beast he was facing matched his speed, both the Grimm and the General running at each other with no intent to stop. The beast leapt, the General let out a mighty roar, and Ironwood grabbed his revolver from his coat. Ironwood slid under the Grimm, firing up several times.

“Holy hell, that was cool,” said Sunset.

Ironwood spun on the ground firing as the beast (whose thick skin was able to withstand the shots) ran forward with the aims to rip out the general’s throat. The Grimm reached him and swung its paws wildly. Ironwood ducked the first one, spun, and blocked the second with his forearm.

“Holy hell, that was cool!” said Sunset.

Ironwood grabbed the Grimm’s wrist, and fired a shot at its feet. The monster lost its balance, which let the general flip it, slam it onto the ground, drag it back to its feet, and, after pausing a moment (no doubt for the sake of looking awesome), fired a shot through the beast’s skull.

Sunset didn’t mean to do it. She didn’t even think. And, even though she was alone within the comfort of her own house, she was still a bit uneasy by the fact that she was even capable of still doing it.

NEEEEEEEEEEIIIIIIIGH!!” Sunset whinnied from the sheer shock and absolute amazingness of the scene. Her hands covered her mouth and she bloomed bright red, looking back and forth to ensure that nobody heard her.

“I’m taking this to my grave,” she whispered to herself.


“Stop laughing,” said Sunset, unheard over the sounds of laughter.

“Oh my god, are you serious?!” cackled Rainbow. “You still do that?! Oh god, my sides!”

“Remember, I’m more horse than girl. Cut me some slack.”

“It is quite funny,” giggled Rarity. Pinkie couldn’t even talk, she was choking on her laughs. Sunset’s expression of annoyance persisted for just a few moments before cracking into a small, well-humored smile.

“Well, there ya go,” said Sunset with a small grin. “The most embarrassing thing that ever happened to me. That we will never speak about. Ever.”

“Sure,” said Rainbow, slowly pulling out her phone.

“What are you doing?”

“Texting AJ the story you just told us.” said Rainbow. Sunset’s face contorted in anger. “Hey, you said we can’t speak about it. Never said anything about text.”

“You know what I meant!” snapped Sunset. She turned to complain to Rarity, who also had her phone out. “Rarity!”

“Sorry, darling,” said Rarity, typing like lightning. “I just had to tell Ms. Pommel about this! She’s sure to find this hilarious!”

Sunset groaned, then turned to see Pinkie also typing, no doubt texting it to Cheese Sandwich. Sunset hung her head, feeling a strange mix of amusement and dread.

“Hey guys,” said Sunset, her tone vaguely threatening. “Remember when you guys pissed me off and I turned into a demon?” She snickered slightly. “How’s that for memory lane?”

Author's Note:

For the record, 7:45 to 8:35 is the exact moment Sunny was watching, and Sunny's reaction was almost the exact same as my own.

Hope you enjoyed!

I actually found this rather endearing and charming. It reminds me of all the times that my friends and I would gather around the lunch-table and do very much the same thing. Good times...

Excellent story. :)

This is awesome!

BWAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAH:rainbowlaugh::rainbowlaugh::rainbowlaugh:
Loved this!
And Rainbow can be such a b:applejackconfused:tch at times.:facehoof:
Also, I really feel for Rares:raritydespair:

You got to make a sequeal to this, I want to hear Twilight, and apple Jack, Fluttershy's embrassing stories!
Maybe throw in Celestia and Luna.

Speaking or Rwby have you see the season 4 Trailer?

7379236 Being an awkward, misanthropic, socially retarded teen, I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to convey an even vaguely typical portrayal of high school life. I'm glad I succeeded in some form.

Thanks for reading!

7379245 Thanks, and you're awesome for reading!

7379305 I would love to hear more stories of the Humane Six´s misfortune

7379270 Thanks!
I have a tendency to make Rainbow a horrible scumbag in my stories. This time, I made a conscious choice to not do that... and I did it anyway. Oh well.

I think Rarity's is probably the most embarrassing.

7379291 Hm... Can't promise anything, but a sequel isn't the most outlandish thing I've ever done.

I make no promises, but keep an eye out. Maybe I will...

Oh, and I did see that trailer. I can't contain my excitement! Ruby looks so frigging cool...

This isn't the place for this conversation, is it? :twilightoops:

I hope comes a sequel of this!!!!!

Thanks for all these laughs. And I think I'm gona have to pick up RWB sometime. That was a pretty awesome fight. Idk much but I'm sure those monsters are pretty strong and the general just stopped its hand like nothing. Good job on this little story.

RWBY looks like a pretty good series, I might plan on watching that soon after I'm done with Kamen Rider 555.

This... This was just a riot.:rainbowlaugh: Good work, Chillbook! So going in my faves.

7379522 Read the comment immediately below yours

7379769 Thanks for reading, Harmony! Didn't expect to see you over here!

7379826 Thanks for reading, and I have only this to say:

Watch RWBY immediately. Holy crap, it's amazing! Binge the first three Volumes before October 22, when Vol. 4 comes out.

7380001 Glad I managed to make ya laugh.

7380082 You won't regret watching it. It may well be my favorite animated series of all time (after ponies, of course).

7380257 I appreciate your reading, fam. It means a lot to me!

7380297 I don't expect anyone to read anything I wrote, honestly. And, just before I called it quits last night, I was looking at your page. I ended up saying something to the effect of "I wonder if Harmony would like this.... Naw, I'm crazy". But here you are!

7380317

Aw, don't be silly. This is awesome. You're awesome!:raritywink:

7380325 Thanks, love. I really, really needed that.

7380358

No problem. ...Are you alright?:heart:

7380381 Eh... Stressed, tired, and hating life, but that happens sometimes.

I'll be okay soon, I just need to eat something tasty and watch something funny. I'll perk right up.

7380419

Oh, if you say so. *hugs* Thay shouldn't happen, though. You probably don't want to, but I'm always here to talk:derpytongue2:

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=8VIllAilTnE

Why isn't this in the feature box yet?

Honestly, I feel like it's on the cusp.

7380478 It's not gonna get featured now because you've read it, and the algorithm can smell your pancake blasphemy.

7380298
My favorite animated series probably has to be Avatar the Last Airbender/Legend of Korra.

My favorite anime is Fullmetal Alchemist, the 2003 series. I might start watching Brotherhood again soon.

7379303 You shouldn't be so hard on yourself. We all have faults, but I feel like you unjustly criticize your own abilities. I think you're an amazing writer and, far from me to say, but far from being misanthropic, your work seems to convey the ideals of an idealist. Success can only be measured by yourself, friend. Don't let others get you down or discourage you. I think you have a great amount of potential with your writing and that you should continue to exercise and practice. One day you'll find that level of expression you want to attain, but until then, believe in yourself - this humble writer does.

This one is gold, and I also like RWBY.

I was most like you describe Sunset. Ironwood bores me, plus I really thought he was a bad guy. That scene sure was badass, but the moment that set me off was when he appear back after the crash and I was "Holy sh:yay:t, his body half mechanized!!!". I did find it obvious the moment he block the Grimm's blow with his arm it must have been a cybernetic arm, but this.

Ironwood's scene was one of the best in RWBY, props to Sunset and you for both your reactions.

Not gonna lie, I did lose it a little when Ironwood pulled that scene off. It was incredibly exciting, as well as other scenes that involved him in those last few episodes- which I will not spoil for the sake of others in these comments who haven't caught up yet. Fair warning though- feels will absolutely be had throughout.

Rarity's moment: Well, shit :rainbowderp:
Pinkie's moment: Damn, that sucks :ajsleepy:
Rainbow's moment: Aww, that's so cute :twilightsmile:
Sunset's moment: May Luna guide my sides back into the solar system as I will myself to breath again :rainbowlaugh:

Oh. My. God. I can't believe you combined RWBY with MLPEG. I love you soooo much. SUNSET LOVES RWBY!!!! (Plz tell me she likes Weiss Schnee best) :D

7588357 I know, right? It's gotta suck peeing the bed while sharing it.

“Hey, anyone who saw those chesticles had a thing for Rarity,” grumbled Rainbow. “Plus, I’m already a perv. Rarity showing off her chest-beefers? I never stood a chance.”

I KNEW IT!!!! :ajbemused::rainbowlaugh:

“Oh? Do you remember when you stood outside my window at night with a boombox?” asked Rarity, stifling a giggle. “And you started singing along?” Rainbow’s face bloomed red. “Oh, you had just the sweetest little singing voice. I had to let you down easy.” Rainbow’s face burned like the sun, and she desperately wished for someone to take the attention off of her.

wow, that raridash moment there :rainbowderp:

“Texting AJ the story you just told us.” said Rainbow. Sunset’s face contorted in anger. “Hey, you said we can’t speak about it. Never said anything about text.”
“You know what I meant!” snapped Sunset. She turned to complain to Rarity, who also had her phone out. “Rarity!”
“Sorry, darling,” said Rarity, typing like lightning. “I just had to tell Ms. Pommel about this! She’s sure to find this hilarious!”
Sunset groaned, then turned to see Pinkie also typing, no doubt texting it to Cheese Sandwich. Sunset hung her head, feeling a strange mix of amusement and dread.

Poor sunset, she got trolled :rainbowlaugh::rainbowlaugh:

“I peed the bed, okay?!” exclaimed Pinkie

Wow, I was hoping for something like this to be one of the stories

7464214 Not at all. I'd never wish that on anyone in real life, although personally I love any fictional instance of it. And in the end Pinkie laughed at it along with Sunset, so you don't have to feel too bad for her, but it's all right if you do.

Sunset's was the funniest IMO

So you neighed at the awesome scene you had Sunset mention?

Woaah. I didn’t know mah boi Sunset is watching RWBY! :D Can’t wait for Volume 7 ^w^

Sequel n for the others.

Ugh... Downvotes. Maybe I shouldn't have said that. Last thing I'll say is, sounds like she was awake when she wet herself.
