Cozy Glow's perfect morning is woefully interrupted by a baleful, skinny little colt. Turns out, he's new to the School of Friendship. After realizing this and that he's attracted to her, she hatches a plan to lead up to the perfect rejection. Screw having him in her empire of friendship, it would be FAR more fun rejecting the little sow.
This was originally for a Cozy Glow competition, but I was unable to finish on time. Still figured I'd publish it anyway! Enjoy :)
Edit: submitting to the contest in case an extension is received! I understand if this entry does not count.
Even though it ends terribly, it's so on point with her character.
Good stuff! Very nicely written.
I don't fully agree with the premise that Cozy Glow would crush some poor kid's heart for fun.
She'd pull a Rarity and string some poor sucker along, but I don't see her rejecting someone outright unless she had to.
It's one less resource she can use.
That being said, I love how you write Cozy's voice in these flirting scenes. You perfectly capture the adorable flirty minx feel that is Cozy Glow.
Now for my favorite part of this story...
The dress up scene!
While not as fluid as some descriptions, I appreciate you putting in the effort to describe Cozy Glow getting ready for her big date.
Wow, Twilight's friendship school really hasn't taught anyone anything. Nice going Twilight.
