This was perfectly precise and captured the emotions you were going for amazingly - all in a thousand words no less! I especially love the contrast between the beginning and end.

Really well done! Definitely would’ve loved to see this kind of perspective after “Friendship Games”.

Doesn't Rarity have something snippy to say about AJ's phonetic typing?

Pinkie's rushed typos are one thing, but deliberately texting in your accent/dialect is painfully gauche.

Absolutely wonderful! A story doesn't have to be very long to be perfect. An excellent way to show just how much Twilights' life changed.

I know the identities don't really matter...but I want to see if I guessed them right.

hey teachers pet, ive got a test tomorrow in fifth period. swipe me the answers and i might not shove you down the stairs

Indigo Zap. I mean, she threatens to push Twi down the stairs, and she IS the most athletic and competitive according to the wiki.

Is our project done yet? It better be worth an A this time.

Sugarcoat. Mostly the blue text fuels my guess.

Your on tihn ice, sparkle. That stunt you plled nearly got me caught!

Usage of "thin ice"? I'm guessing Sunny Flare. Wiki says she's the classiest of the Shadowbolts.

gimme ur notes for history, i sleplt thru class again lol

DEFINITELY sounds like something Lemon Zest would say!

Sweet dreams, Twilight. Not!

Do I even NEED to say it? The sugar, then sour gives it away.

...Yeah. But in all seriousness, great story! It really shows how things have changed for Sci-Twi.

Good guesses! Those were the ones I had in mind when writing those, but they can really be anyone you want.

As a person who was bullied themselves (though before texts, smart phones, or cyberbullying was a thing) and later given a better environment, I will say that you very much accurately describe the feelings portrayed here. A few encouraging words can make all the difference in the world to someone who isn't used to getting them outside of their family. Give someone some nice words today!

Excellent study in contrasts and the incredible drop in toxicity after Twilight transferred. And Sunset writing a whole paragraph makes perfect sense. She's probably still wondering why humans reinvented the telegraph when they perfected the phone. The different texts ooze character, as does Twilight herself. You said a lot with a little here. Great work.
