Author's Note:

This particular journal entry is a canon entry for Homecoming.

The titular song Sunset is referring to is by John Gorka. I originally had the specific lyric that was speaking to her included until I was reminded about the TOU part on song lyrics.

Here's a link if you wanna hear it.

Dear Princess Twilight,

I don't really have any questions, I just need to talk to someone that won't ask a lot of questions. I just need to vent, you know?

I'm not normally a very emotional person, but even the strongest wall has a weak point. I was studying he other night and this one song came on the radio and it struck a chord so deep inside me I'm glad I was alone at the time. It was sad and melancholy but sweet at the same time. It brought up memories and regrets and I just broke down.

So yeah, me, Sunset Shimmer, cried from a song. I challenged you in authority and title, faced down the Sirens, the magic crazed alternate you and nameless other difficulties, like his worlds' history exams, but a few little words made me sob like a foal. It's stupid and silly and Rainbow would probably tease me mercilessly over it.

But I do know one thing, though. If it were possible to take a train back through time, I've got quite a few pictures to show them, of the girls, my Sunshine in particular.

I think I made out ok.

So yeah, I just needed to vent. I love you guys, ok?

Your friend,

Sunset Shimmer
