Owner Of A Lonely Heart

Entry 24

Dear Diary,

Today was the first time I set hoof in Canterlot since the disaster of a gala. Well, that's not entirely true. I was briefly at the castle to help save Equestria from this really nasty chaos creature named Discord. But that's a tale for my friendship journal and not my personal one. Now though, I'm staying at the castle by invitation of none other than Princess Celestia herself! Eat your heart out, Blueblood. Princess Celestia likes me better than she likes you. Granted, in a popularity contest, I'm pretty sure even a dingy diamond dog could beat Blueblood.

But I'm getting sidetracked, dearest Diary. I finally had my chance to mingle with the Canterlot elites for real! Some, like Jet Set and Upper Crust, were simply awful. But then I met Fancy Pants. I've never met a pony so sophisticated in all my years! He even wears a monocle. Can you believe that, Diary? A monocle in this day and age! And he makes it work! He's everything Hoity Toity wishes he was.

He's so perfect! There's one itty bitty little problem. Fleur-de-lis. Yes, the famous model. The one who I've yearned to work with for years. She's uh, sort of his marefriend.

Of course all the good ones are taken. Why wouldn't they be? Still, I think I could persuade him to drop her for me. I may not be as tall or as thin, but I've already won him over with my charm. She's eye candy, and I'm substance. A stallion like Fancy Pants obviously wants more than a mare like she could ever offer him.

His stamp of approval has already opened a multitude of doors for me, starting with a box seat at a Wonderbolts Derby! Rainbow Dash would be so jealous!

Love,
Rarity
