This story wouldn’t be what it is without Wendy Gowak, who workshopped the chapter by chapter outline with me.

Being a new kid at a private school is hard. Lucky for you, it's easy to blend into the crowd and lose yourself to the music that makes you feel at home. However, that doesn't mean you wouldn't like someone to talk to during lunch. To hell with romance, it would be nice to just have a friend.

A collection of social interactions.

I can understand a nervousness for the tags depicted in this story. It's mostly for the music being shared. But the music also matters as a part of the narrative.

Will Contain over a Slow Burn of the entire story: Sexually active teenagers with ambiguous ages, but implied they're of age (with no actual 'in book' sex), an attempted realistic depiction of high school stresses, themes of mental health struggles, self-discovery, consequences.

Misty Swirl finds beauty everywhere except within. But when Fluttershy and Sugarcoat introduce her to belly dancing, that might just change!

Perception is a fascinating thing. Sometimes, how someone views themselves and how others view someone don't coincide. In fact, it can be absolutely baffling how different the two are.

The girl who seems to have everything together? She might be a wreck beneath the surface.

The girl who seems so inattentive? Perhaps she genuinely doesn't see the attempts to reach her.

The girl who seems so moody? Maybe there's more to it than what people see.

But of course, that's the thing about perception. Sometimes, it just doesn't line up. And few know that better than the girls at Crystal Prep Academy.

(This is a collection of little vignettes I'll be publishing, effectively going into my headcanons for the Shadowbolts. I hope you enjoy it.)
