Proper Popcorn Popping Procedure

Source

Twilight Sparkle knew going to Sunset Shimmer's house for Hearth's Warming would be more fun than the typical holiday festivities at her parents' house. She knew she and Sunset could party through the snowstorm blowing through town and not even be mildly inconvenienced. She knew that with everything that had happened since they'd met at the Friendship Games, she and Sunset's friendship would never falter.

She didn't know Sunset Shimmer cooked her popcorn on high.

Written for Tumbleweed for Jinglemas 2021.

Something silly for once.

“I’ll take it, though calling it a challenge is generous. ‘A brutal educational of a popcorn pleb’ would be more accurate.”

A++.

This story's premise confuses me. Why wouldn't you want to cook your popcorn on high?

Moments passed in silence, the two girls looking at each other with faces of stone. No passersby could’ve identified whether it was hatred or indifference they gave each other. In truth, the emotion was more nuanced than mere disdain, love, or any other emotion a person could name. It was an emotion as old as time and filling every member of the species.
It was the complete and utter desire to prove how much of a stupid-head the other was.

sounds like the history of humanity to me

non buttered and sweetened popcorn is not popcorn but a replacement filling material for boxes with delicate content . .

“I needed a change of scenery anyway. I’ve had Christmas at home for the past 5 years.

I think you mean Hearth’s Warming…but either way, cute story, and especially hilarious with THIS part:

No emotionally devastating smack talk that will lead to thirty years of therapy and a host of failed romantic relationships in an attempt to rediscover one’s self-worth.”

Thank you for the silly entertainment and thank Tumbleweed for pointing it out. This was good fun... Too bad Twi didn't take Sunset up on the mistletoe though.
