//------------------------------// // Hello, I'm Twilight Sparkle. // Story: Purple Skies // by WinterTwister //------------------------------// Hello my name is Twilight Sparkle, I am happy with my life here in Ponyville. I have friends that are always there for me, the towns' population are all very nice ponies! What else could I possibly want?.....What else could I want? Each day goes by the same, I wake up, I meet my friends, I study, and then I go back to sleep. It's all wonderful and I thought it was everything I needed to be happy.. until recently. The days start to drag as I forgo my normal routine, each day growing staler and one day I decided to research why I was feeling in such a lonely manner, but to no avail towards the answer. I decided to start new routines, involving walks around Ponyville to relax me. During my walks I found myself usually annoyed with colts trying to 'pick me up'. I thought about the colts in Ponyville, none of them interested me, most of them were just annoying or just plain stupid. Big Macintosh was seemingly the only colt tolerable, he was strong and very polite, but he didn't really pique my interest. The concept however..did interest me.. I started to dream about having my own coltfriend, I found myself feeling something I never felt before in those dreams,I never wanted to wake up. In the daytime most of my reading had gone to my, usually overlooked, romance stories and I found myself constantly blushing as I replaced the main female character as myself; but as I finished reading I felt the emptiness once more so I always scattered to find another book to return the feeling. I realize that these are false feelings.. but they have kept me happy, but even as im happy I realize that I'm also sad for knowing the truth about the unreality. Will I ever find the colt of my dreams?
