Be Vinyl Scratch.

("What in all the celestial beings names are you DOING ANONYMOUS?!")

All through out the night you had been letting your son drag you along with his little plan. This night has been an honest blast so far, getting to ride in a fancy carriage, box seats to see your crush, and MEETING your crush with backstage passes. Truly you had made the best decision ever in adopting Nonners, but just WHY HAD HE SENT OCTAVIA A LETTER TELLING HER THAT YOU WANTED TO DATE HER?! Not that it wasn't true, but you didn't want her to know that...yet. Octavia had invited you and Anon to sit at this little table that had a tea set ready.
She had gotten you both a cup and offered you both some cookies.You took one while Anon took three. For the last few minuets Anon and Octavia had been talking like they were old friends, Anon telling stories and Octavia adding small bits of commentary. You had used this time to try and keep your heart from jumping out your chest.

"-And then I told him "If you wanted to play Villain Fighter two, you should have put a quarter down"!"

*Hehe* "You are the most amusing thing Anonymous."

Octavia looks over at you.

("OH LUNA THOSE EYES.")

"You're certainly one lucky mare Miss Scratch, a son like Anonymous here is quite the rare thing."

Her eyes widen all the sudden.

"I'm terribly sorry, I didn't mean it like that at all."

She was now waving a hoof in a wild gesture as she tried to save herself from her self perceived social faux pas.

"Not that he isn't unique mind you, just not in a way that might, as you should know, um, I mean to say..."

Quickly regaining her composer she put her head and hoof down, blushing madly.

"I am deeply sorry."

Anon is trying to hold in his laughter while you take this as your chance to talk.

"Um..It's alright, we know what you meant."

You give a weak smile.

"The little guys a tough one like his mom, even if that was what you meant he'd take it like the champ I taught him to be."

Octavia looked up, a small smile across her muzzle.

("That's good! Don't mess it up now.")

"But yeah, I'm interested in hearing just exactly my little monkey wrote in this letter of his."

Anon obviously didn't think he had done anything wrong, but he could tell you weren't exactly pleased.

He sat up a little straighter and glanced at you.

"Oh yes, it was the most adorable thing I have ever had the pleasure of reading."

"I really don't like to brag, it's rather embarrassing and even scary at times, but I have received love letters before. This on the other hoof was by far the most earnest and straight forward letter I've received of the romantic variety. While I doubted you would actually show up I did have my small hope."

Your heart must have exploded because you couldn't feel it anymore after she gives you this mischievous grin and a sly wink.

"So Miss Scratch, just where were you thinking of taking me for our first date?"

*Thump*


Be Anouymous.

"MOM?!"
>After Octavia had asked mom where they were going to have their first date you were ready to spring your last surprise for the night when you saw mom tilt over and hit the ground. Getting on the ground quickly you find that shes just passed out. Breathing a sigh of relive you hear a pair of hooves clip clop behind you.

"Oh dear, I've seemed to have taken my little joke a little too far."

Standing up you just shake your head.

"How are you two going to get to The Crystal Corner if she's out like this?"

*Gasp*

Looking at Octavia you see that she is standing on her hind hooves so that she could have both her fore hooves to her mouth.

"Are you saying you have reservations for THE Crystal Corner?"

You feel pride and smugness welling up in your chest.

That's right, I managed to get a reservation for two at a window seat!"

Octavia looked ready to faint herself, but something seemed to deflate her a little bit.

"Reservation for just two? Will you not be joining us?"

"Naw, it's your twos date, no need for me to be around. Besides, now that I've gotten a chance top talk with you I know your on the chill."

You level as scary a face as you could muster at Octavia.

"But if I find out you hurt mom, I'll make sure your not happy!"

You point a finger at her menacingly. She giggles.

"I promise to be nothing less than the perfect date. Do you mind me asking where you'll be while your mother is with me?"

Relaxing you just shrug.

"I'm gonna head to the arcade and spend what few bits I have left then head home to wait for mom to get back."

Octavia smiles and heads over to her dresser and grabs something off the top. When she comes back you see shes holding a considerable bag of bits in her mouth. She drops it to the ground, opens it up, pulls out ten bits, and hold them out to you.

"Here's a little extra to play with. Consider it a thank you for paying for dinner."

You look at the bits in her hoof and her face for a moment stunned, then take the bits.

"Um...well yeah your welcome, but I'm really doing this for mom. You don't have to give these to me."

"Do not worry about it, I just got paid for the show I preformed. Ten bits won't hurt me."

Pocketing the bits you give her a huge grin.

"Thanks. I guess I'll leave you two to it then, just have mom take to the carriage that we took here and ask them to take you to the Crystal Corner, I've already paid them for the whole night."

You get on your knees and give your sleeping mom a hug.

"Have fun on your date, love you mom."

You get up, smile at Octavia one more time, and leave.


Be Octavia Melody.

You were certainly having an interesting night, and it only seemed to be starting.
