The Festival of Friendship is in full swing, and Tempest Shadow should be languishing in a prison cell, waiting for her punishment. Instead Twilight asks if she’d like to stay with her for the night.
This whole friendship thing might be more confusing than she thought.

(Now with bonus chapter)

MOVIE SPOILERS! Do not read ahead if you have not yet watched The Movie!

After the events in Canterlot, Twilight seeks to strengthen her new bond of friendship with Tempest Shadow. There’s something special Twilight is interested in, however. A certain something that’s being hidden beneath the armor. And she has to find out even if it takes some clever suggestion.

Like taking a bath!

Faced with redemption or prison, Tempest Shadow accepts Twilight’s hoof in friendship, though she fears how much trauma her new friend has endured on her behalf. With a hopeful heart, Tempest takes her place at Twilight’s side, but when she falls for the one who gave her a new meaning in life, things only get more complicated.
