Singing for The Ponytones was hard. Now I'm modeling and singing in an opera! “Fluttershy, darling, come out of your dressing room. It wouldn't very becoming to be late to your first performance as an opera singer!” Rarity opened the door to Fluttershy's dressing room to find Fluttershy on the verge of tears. “Rarity, I don't think I can do this. The only reason I could sing before was because no one knew it was me!” And the only reason I could model was because I wanted to please you. “Don't be silly darling, you're a marvelous singer and you're simply gorgeous! You are perfect for the opera house,” Rarity said, frantic underneath her guise of calmness. Her friend had been hard to work with all day and had been in her dressing room for three hours. Show time was only twenty minutes away and Fluttershy wasn't mentally or physically ready for the stage yet. I have to make Rarity happy. If I don't go out there she will be very upset. “OK, can you help me get ready? If I get myself ready this will go even worse than it already will,” said Fluttershy. “Sure I can Fluttershy.” Rarity was surprised as Fluttershy was usually very private and embarrassed about dressing. “I'll do whatever I need to in order to get you on that stage,” Rarity said. Truth be told, it will be very interesting to see Fluttershy's body. Rarity slipped off Fluttershy's shirt and pants and instinctively examined her body, as she had done so many other models. But Fluttershy is not like any of those other models. She is so naturally beautiful. “Um Rarity, shouldn't you have gotten my costume out before you took my clothes off?” said Fluttershy. “I'm dreadfully sorry. I'll go get the costume right now. Don't know what I was thinking.” Rarity, you know exactly what you were thinking. She got the costume, a light yellow dress with pink trim to match Fluttershy's hair and skin. Rarity quickly put the dress on her, trying not to make Fluttershy any more nervous. She looked at the clock and realized they only had five minutes before Fluttershy had to be on stage. “OK darling, now you are ready,”- She kissed Fluttershy on the cheek- “Thank you for being so cooperative and dealing with your anxiety.” Fluttershy, excited and surprised by the kiss got up and opened up her dressing room door. After taking a deep breath, she slowly walked out onto the stage ready to go, with a splotch of dark purple lipstick on her cheek.
