"Be good to yourself, because nobody else has the power to make you happy."

E

Cut off from her allowance by a certain parent of her's (Not her father, surprise surprise) Diamond Tiara decides to try her hoof at foalsitting to make some extra bits. A nice, easy job, right? Hmm...

Set in the middle of season six. You know, because she hasn't received much airtime recently, so let's try and make up for it, shall we?

Chapters (3)

Getting paid to foalsit AND free startup capital for a sack store? I'm in!

A poster on the wall of the eatery, scrawled in a strange elongated style, almost as if the author had some sort of hyperactive disorder. It read as follows:

FOALSITTER WANTED FOR TWO SUPER ADORABLE BUNDLES OF JOY. PLEASE APPLY WITHIN. FREE SACKS OF FLOUR INCLUDED WITH ACCEPTANCE OF POSITION. FUN FUN FUN GUARANTEED!!!!!

That's what you get when you let :pinkiehappy: make your advertisement. Although between what we've seen with them before and Diamond Tiara's lack of experience, shenanigans seem guaranteed.

Feel a little bad for Filthy Rich there.

Oh dear, this cannot end well. And you're quite right. I don't normally have any real gripes with the show, but I do think Diamond needs a bit more airtime, considering her supporting role as a minor antagonist for the previous seasons.

Ooh, now this should be quite fun! :pinkiehappy:

Oh boy ... poor Diamond. Hopefully the foalsitting will mostly lead to cute hijinks instead of anything too awful. And honestly, Filthy Rich needs to get a bucking divorce already.

7546532 He already does, in one of my other fics here. Hurray!! :pinkiehappy:

Alas, like this one, that is merely an alternate universe, and to this day in canon, most folk say they can hear the raucous cry of a harridan mare over the shore , along with the desperate pleading of a stallion "No more... no more... PLEASE NO MORE!! :applecry:

And, until a spine donor is found for him, this scenario shall tragically carry on until infinity, and beyond. Or cancellation, at least. :moustache:

So there going to be shipping?

I bet that twins bundle of joy would help her out.

7546661 I dunno... I get the feeling Pound and Pumpkin Cake may be a lil bit too young for Miss T... :pinkiegasp:
Just kidding... you'll have to wait 'n' see... :pinkiehappy:

This is good, but are you ever going to finish A Mother's Love?

7546857 See, that's my main problem... jumping into new projects, when I haven't finished my old ones. I dare say I'm not the only one guilty of that on this site...
Right now, this fic is my main focus ( I have LOTS of ideas for it) but, seeing as your question is will I ever finish it EVER, I can confidently predict 'yes'... whenever that may be. :twilightoops:

7546724 I don't think she's their type, at best they may develop a toddler crush on her.

As I left in 'shame', I stopped briefly to hear my mother's unmistakable titter of triumph, followed by her saying, "Now, that's what you call proper parenting, dear... when both the grown-ups stand together firmly on their principals like a stone wall. When she discovers she can't even afford to have her precious tiara polished, she'll soon come crawling... and we'll have our obedient little girl back. I shan't let a bunch of uncivilised misanthropes undo nine years of dedicated training in one fell swoop! Now, because you were so compliant back there, I'll let you run along to play with your little toys for half an hour."

"That'll be... pretty good..." Father walked off as if in a daze, to collect his golf clubs.

Hey Flithy, I think you left your balls back there. Small... shrivelled... blue, right?

7546532
Flithy Rich: "After I said 'til death do us part,' I later came to realize I was setting a goal.

Keep this going. I gotta see more of this.

And besides, Di knows what her cutie mark is for.

Ha! To have a harmless teethless gator licking ice cream off of Diamond Tiara. That's something you don't see every day.

That's Pinkie Pie for you, Diamond. At first you think she's just hyper and easily distracted, and then she surprises you with her knowledge when you least expect it. :pinkiesmile:

7549251 But since when do babies listen to anypony right away?

So the alligator's a pervert?

7549705 Hey, don't blame Gummy. It was Pinkie who put him up to it. And if you thinks that's bad, just wait 'til you find out how she makes her patented cupcakes... :pinkiecrazy:

MJP

you do realize that diamond tiara is just a bipolar mary sue her bulliying is her own fucking fault, and "cart before the ponies" proved she just made it up to get attention

7550180 If you say so. Groovy.

Although I hardly think helping her butler build the cart, showing concern for him after the crash, and not cheating at the contest is the sign of an unredeemed character, but there ya go... :twistnerd:

Also, if you're going to downvote something in the future, please do it because you don't like the story, rather than the protagonist. Ta very muchly. :raritywink:

Me and Spoonie

Whoop, slight boo-boo here. Supposed to be "Spoonie and I".

Otherwise, keep up the great work! Can't wait to see her at work!

With those parting words, the Cakes were gone, although Mrs Cake had the presence of mind to switch the sign from OPEN to CLOSED on the door before she departed. In a bit of a tizzy at the task I had ahead, I began to consult the list, which was about the same size as an anaconda in length, for clarity. Let's see, A... Always keep your eyes on them...

That was when I had my first little hiccup. You see, I shouldn't have been able to read the top of the list at all... there should have been a blonde-tufted female foal and a brown-tufted male foal still residing on the paper.

But there wasn't. They'd vanished without a trace...

I'd already failed the first rule.

Whoops.

That's par for the course. Pretty soon Diamond will be sinking a hole-in-one nonstop.

The reckoning begins.

And so it begins. Good luck, Diamond, you're gonna need it. :rainbowlaugh:

Also, Spoiled is a real piece of work isn't she? Seriously, what did Filthy EVER see in her? :trixieshiftright:

Less than 2 minutes in and you've already lost them. A new record!

The chaos of sitting the Cake Twins has just begun. Good luck Diamond, you'll need it.

"It's no good pining now, Missy..." she sniffed, pointedly turning her back on me with her hooves crossed. "If you choose to act like one of the underclass, you can start earning your keep like one of them."

Spolied kids, When I was young, I didn't have any allowance. And I turn fine... almost. It builds character.

After your careless stunt at the school which cost us the price of an adventure playground, and the finances lost from funding your dismal election campaign, we're dirt poor.

But her presidential campaign was based around the new playground. They would have spend the bits eventually.

My poor Daddy. It must have been another all-night assault on the eardrums again for him.

I told yah! They love each other very much. You just don't understand. Stop denying their love. :flutterrage:

At this point, I trotted over to the silken curtains of our living room where this animated discussion was taking place, pulling the cord to open them with my mouth. A few months ago, I would have used my hooves, but now, such pretentiousness seemed to lose it's flavour completely.

Utterly disgusting. I must agree with Spoiled, using the mouth for every thing is disgusting. Till this day, the Cakes changing diapers with their teeth haunt my dreams. And a little bit of pretentiousness is always good.

An extra large helping of ice cream, that you don't even have to steal from me this time. On the house, for you to drown your sorrows in. Don't say I never do anything for you."

So you made her fat? Jeeze, thanks Silv...

7561360 You're back. Woo-hoo. Waves mini flag Let's get to it, shall we?

Spolied kids, When I was young, I didn't have any allowance. And I turn fine... almost. It builds character.

First word... and you misspelled it. Nice start. Also, I don't see how your lack of finances has anything to do with your ability to rotate 180 degrees... care to elaborate? :rainbowdetermined2:

But her presidential campaign was based around the new playground. They would have spend the bits eventually.

No, it wasn't. That was Pip's election promise. Her pledge was to continue her own unique brand of tyranny, as well as put up a great big statue of herself. Hmm... I wonder why her opponent won? :applejackconfused:

Still, at least she can she made a better fist of things than a certain Clinton candidate at the moment... :moustache:

I told yah! They love each other very much. You just don't understand. Stop denying their love.

"I love you so much, here's a bill for a new dress... and I'll take all the spare cash that's been weighing your jacket down as well!!" :heart:
"Aw, how thoughtful of you, dear!" :twilightsmile:

You're absolutely right... who am I to pour cold water on such a mutually beneficial arrangement? A cutie pox on my house for even daring to think differently. :facehoof:

Utterly disgusting. I must agree with Spoiled, using the mouth for every thing is disgusting. Till this day, the Cakes changing diapers with their teeth haunt my dreams. And a little bit of pretentiousness is always good.

Well, at least you now know where the phrase Eat S**t originated from. :trollestia:

Also, I'm quite pretentious myself... so no arguments there. I don't always agree with the views of my characters, you know. :raritywink:

So you made her fat? Jeeze, thanks Silv...

There are a disturbing amount of obese DT illustrations on Deviant Art, so people must like it. :rainbowhuh: :twilightoops:

Not to worry, though... I'm sure Mommy Dearest would pay for lipo before things got out of hoof. Got to maintain those standards, after all... :scootangel:

Well, wasn't THAT fun. See you next time for more scintillating commentary, convoluted replies and maybe a life lesson or too, as well. :twistnerd:

Still, at least she can she made a better fist of things than a certain Clinton candidate at the moment...

Diamond Tiara wouldn't just give Clinton a run for her money, she'd show Trump a thing or two as well. Not to change the subject or anything, just adding my two bits.

So far so good. It can only get better now.

I pity Diamond. I really do.
