A Lovely Night, Ruined (Slice of Life)

Of Stars and Storms by Matthewl419

"Rainbow Dash! What are you doing?" yelled a very scary-looking Twilight.

Rainbow landed on the balcony where Twilight was yelling. "I'm setting up for the storm tonight, Twilight. Why?"

"Because I was under the impression the weather team scheduled tonight for clear skies. I've been planning to stargaze for weeks!" Twilight did not, unfortunately, get any less scary-looking.

"It's not my fault, some screwhead ground crew in charge of scheduling messed it up by a week. A whole week! Now we have to get some rain on the ground asap, or crops will start dying."

"Didn't this happen last year, too? And the year before that?" Rainbow relaxed slightly when she noticed the change in Twilight's tone.

"Yeah," she said, "we really should just fire that guy. But we can't seem to find anypony to take his job."

Twilight sighed. "And this was gonna be such a lovely night."
