"I heard you made Fluttershy cry."

These words are the first thing you hear when you wake up the next morning, once again feeling as though you have gained the ability to speed up time simply by staying in bed.

"Answer me, Anon." You open your eyes to see Rainbow Dash sitting a few feet away from you with murder in her eyes, which she narrows at you as you awaken. "Did you make Fluttershy cry?"

"I might have," you reply. "What's it to you?" Rainbow Dash stands up and walks over to you; without warning, she proceeds to slap you in the face with a wing. "Ow, hey! What was that for?!"

Dash puts her face against yours. "Fluttershy is my oldest friend," she snarls. "We've known each other since we were fillies, and I've always promised that I would keep an eye out for her. So if you hurt her feelings again, I promise I'm going to make your life a living hell." She slaps you again. "Got it?"

You push her away from you and rub your face. "Yeah, I get it," you reply. "Now, is that all you came here to say, or are you going to try and convince me to get up and actually do stuff?"

To your surprise, Dash shakes her head. "Actually, no," she says. "I for one couldn't give a damn what you do, as long as it doesn't involve upsetting my friends. In fact..." She looks around, as if checking to make sure no-one is listening. "I'm kinda jealous."

"You... you're jealous?" you ask. "Why?"

Dash laughs. "I'd love to spend all day in bed, just doing nothing," she says. "But I have responsibilities to think of, so I can't." She sighs. "Basically, Anon, I am jealous of your ability to just stop giving a crap about everything and everypony."

"Um, okay..." you rub the back of your head. "I certainly wasn't expecting that; I honestly thought you were going to do everything you could to get me out of my pit and be productive."

"Pfft." Dash waves a forehoof dismissively. "Why be productive when you can be asleep? Let me tell you, if I could make money by being asleep, you bet your flank I'd be doing it right now."

You chuckle. "Well, thanks, I guess," you say. "At least somebody around here understands that I want to be alone right now."

"Yeah, about that." Dash sighs. "Look, I know that things must suck for you right now, but you need to liven up; how am I supposed to show you how awesome Equestria is if you're cooped up in here?"

"It's not as easy as you think, Rainbow," you reply. "I've had a huge load of crap dumped on me, and it's going to take some – no, a lot of – time to get used to it; you can't expect me to adjust to such a life-altering change like that." You snap your fingers.

Dash nods. "All right, Anon, I get it." she walks over to the door. "I'll leave you alone, but you have to promise me a couple of things. First, you apologise to Fluttershy and second, you let me know when you're ready for a night on the town."

"Sure thing, Rainbow." you nod back. "See ya."

After that, the cycle repeats itself: the pony leaves, you close your eyes, and soon it'll be morning again.
