Forget not that I am a derp.

People have had a lot of crazy ideas about unicorns over the years. Given the sheer quantity, it shouldn't be surprising when some of them turn out to be true.

It still is, but it shouldn't be.

An entry in Thousand Words Contest III, in the Slice of Life and Comedy categories, earning Bronze in the former. Rated Teen for teenage discussions of M-rated topics. All characters are 18, just to be safe.

Sunset answered with a devilish grin. “No offense.”

:rainbowwild: You bitch.

Sunset: You're welcome

And it seemed like the kind of bare sliver of an idea that works best for the Thousand Words contest.

It IS pleasant to see you so closely match this story idea's size to your desired story length.

And the next sound out of her mouth was a bizarre string of phonemes like a horse trying to sneeze through a mouthful of peanut butter.
:rainbowlaugh: I like pony-reminders like this.

Well, that was delightfully silly.

Delightfully daft! I especially appreciate the magic sensation description. n_n

It began as a typical Rainbooms practice session on an ordinary spring day in their senior year. No wild magic, no banished monsters, no forgotten skeleton from Sunset's closet seeking vengeance for unnoticed wrongs.

Low-key roasting Wallflower, eh?

There are three virgins in this room right now

Dash, Rarity, and Wallflower (who was never noticed)?

Huh. That explains the tags, etc. Good comedy!

That there's also strengths in the sensation... I wonder what that's about.

Lol the "no comment"-s!

What other things are undiscovered that are just waiting to pop up?

"Dash, Rarity, and Wallflower (who was never noticed)?"

Heh. Interesting. I would've bet Dash. Rarity, Twilight.

11944828
Nah, FoME is a hardcore SunLight Shipper.

"And they responded to purity in kind. It was said that the only way to tame them was for them to lay their heads in the lap of an unsullied maiden."

That prompted a coughing fit and a much more emphatic "No comment." Everyone politely ignored Twilight's blush much in the same way they'd been ignoring Dash's boasts.

Now Sunset probably does just innocently lay her head on her girlfriend's lap from time to time. But I doubt that would spark a coughing fit. :ajsmug:

11944836

Ah, yes. I missed that clue! Well, if RariJack is a not-yet-thing, then I'd say Rainbow, Rarity, Applejack.

Usually if anyone's not a virgin, Pinkie Pie's the one, and Fluttershy subverting the expectations of the shy is somewhat common too.

Yea Rainbow got played here. A good fun story.

SUNSET SHIMMER BE LIKE

fantastic cute little fic about Sunset having a virgin sense. I appreciate that she can smell Zephyr's incelness from across town thats specially hilarious

Let's all be glad that specific Equestrian magic never leaked through the portal.

"Just so you guys know, I won't be able to make the Sunday practice. My boyfriend from Cloudsdale's visiting." She leered and performed a languid, full-body stretch. "Might be walking funny on Monday."

As if Rainbow Dash wouldn't properly warm up and stretch before engaging in strenuous physical activity.

Regarding the comment section's speculation of the three: I don't remember whether FOME is a Rarijack adherent, but if he's taking cues from "Rollercoaster of Friendship" and one or two of the shorts, then by process of elimination, the three would be Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, and Pinkie Pie.

"The sign, the sense, the little tug. I don't know, it's like trying to explain color to the blind. There are three virgins in this room right now."

Wait, which ones?

That was awesome. :rainbowwild:

Not going to make guesses or assertions about this whole debate, as it's none of our business - even Sunset realized that once she figured out what the others couldn't do - but I will say that Pinkie as Ace and/or Aro is an interpretation I have seen before. And, to be honest, I can very much see it.

I love this kind of EG Slice of Life/Comedy :rainbowlaugh:
Can attest to the 'unicorn phase' and I've never truly gotten over it either "glances at several unicorn plushies on desk and bureau" :raritystarry:

11944780
Especially given my usual habit of novel-length ideas coming in under five thousand words. :twilightblush:

11944781
Ponish is such an elegant language.

11944805
It's always fun to speculate on what magic feels like from the mage's perspective, especially when they're trying to explain it to people who've never had anything resembling the same experience.

11944813 11944828 11944836 11944908 11944942 11945090
When I first published the story, I was worried the "three virgins" line had created a bit of a Cow Tools situation in terms of giving just enough detail to spark far more speculation than I intended. I didn't really have specific girls in mind for who's what, but Undefined probably has the right of it.

11944874
Like the Astronomicon shining in the Warp, Sunset can always navigate by the light of Zephyr's sheer unf:yay:ability.

While she can often back up what she says, there are times when Dash is all talk*; this situation seems to be just as good as any other choice in terms of an instance of that situation. (In other words: no, I don't think you were too hard on her. Now if she had claimed that her boyfriend lived in Caneighda, though...)

*Or as Applejack might put it, "all hat and no cattle".

Huh. I could have gotten away with much worse rumors in my bad old days.

You just have no. Idea. How much trouble that would've landed you in, if you developed a reputation for it.

Twilight sputtered at that. "You of all people should know I'm—"

Geez, save it for the bedroom, Twi.

That cover art is just :raritystarry:

"Huh. I could have gotten away with much worse rumors in my bad old days.”

She's a slag, and she's a slag, and she's a slag, and she's definitely a slag.

"There are three virgins in this room right now."

"And when I turn the lights back on, I want to see all three of them right here on this table. If I do, no further questions will be asked."

11945217
The Astronomicon bit killed me. My sides are in orbit, thank you :rainbowlaugh:

This was a good read.

One thing... the Beard of a Goat thing. It is true in at least Sunbrust's case.

11945229

Caneighda

Vanhoover is canon IIRC?

11946106
I think so, but "I have a boyfriend/girlfriend in Canada" is a very old joke, and is essentially a way of saying that the love interest in question doesn't exist.

11945217
Its totally Dash, Rarity, Applejack, because AJ and Rarity are both old fashioned enough in their own ways to find 'saving it for marriage' romantic :D

But yea either set of 3 works imo

Cue Dash trying to get a threesome going with the other two...

Someday Rainbow. Someday. But Rarity going through a unicorn phase sure checks out.

Sunset answered with a devilish grin. “No offense.”

Why do I get the feeling that Sunset was dying to get to be on the giving end of that phrase for once?:rainbowlaugh:

11945217

I didn't really have specific girls in mind for who's what, but Undefined probably has the right of it.

Tbh I actually think it's funnier that way.

Didn’t know what to truly expect going into this story but was pleasantly surprised. Rainbow being a virgin just adds a fun dynamic to the group with her being the butt of the jokes for once. Well done!

11946286
Except the whole "purity - no comment" line of dialogue hints to Rarity not being a virgin.

Reminds me a little of Terms of Forgiveness and Sci-Twi's misconceptions about unicorns in that story.

Another good one here.

11948148
Or hints at Rarity having totally gone unpure, could go either way since SunsetSense works in both directions

I love the idea that Zephyr Breeze is so tragically bad at “game” that she can use him as the equivalent of magnetic north.

It began as a typical Rainbooms practice session on an ordinary spring day in their senior year. No wild magic, no banished monsters, no forgotten skeleton from Sunset's closet seeking vengeance for unnoticed wrongs.

honestly even a literal skeleton wouldn’t surprise me

"Just so you guys know, I won't be able to make the Sunday practice. My boyfriend from Cloudsdale's visiting." She leered and performed a languid, full-body stretch. "Might be walking funny on Monday."

That mostly got eyerolls, awkward looks into the corners of the room, and a drawled "Charming" from Rarity.

lol that is our good ol’ Rainbow Crass

“You’re a virgin.” It wasn't an accusation. It wasn't even a condemnation. It was a declaration of fact.

gottem

Dash crossed her arms, but couldn't look Sunset in the eye. "We've done it so many times. You don't even know."

ahaha love how bad Rainbow is at lying

"Darling, you are many things, but a convincing liar is not one of them." Rarity turned back to Sunset. "It's still polite to allow her the fantasy."

aww so true love politeness

Sunset blinked, expression shifting to embarrassment, then horror. "Wait, she was seriously trying to convince us?"

ehehe classic beat

"Right. I'm going to quit while I'm behind." Sunset sat on the floor, head in her hands. "Sorry, for the nothing it's worth."

do love the irony of her being the Element of Empathy here, many such cases!

Twilight sputtered at that. "You of all people should know I'm—"

hoowee

Rarity cleared her throat. "Allow me to explain. I had a unicorn phase when I was a girl, as many do." She grinned. "One could argue I've never entirely left it."

"No comment," Sunset said, mirroring the expression.

ehehe and yes very fitting for EqG Rarity 

"And they responded to purity in kind. It was said that the only way to tame them was for them to lay their heads in the lap of an unsullied maiden."

That prompted a coughing fit and a much more emphatic "No comment." Everyone politely ignored Twilight's blush much in the same way they'd been ignoring Dash's boasts.

auaugh love it

“No, Sunset,” Rarity said with the strained patience she usually reserved for Sweetie Belle.

so true

"The only person who I can detect more clearly than you is Zephyr Breeze." Sunset shuddered and pointed in the rough direction of Fluttershy's house. "I can feel him from halfway across town.”

gottem


indeed, the length of this idea fits the contest well! and yeah there is a bit of commonality between Rainbow Dash and Zephyr here in terms of why it is funny that they are “virgins”, as loathe as i or Rainbow would be to admit it. very fun stuff, thank you for writing!

11944781
I'm trying to picture the phonetic transcription for this pony word, and I can only assume there's a lot of velar or glottal consonants.

Hello! I reviewed this after the contest, so here's your overdue courtesy note. And this was fun. Teen sex comedies can have hard work winning me over, but this fic managed it. (Actually, like a few others I was surprised to see this placed for SoL and not Comedy.) And... oh, Twilight. I enjoyed this one.
