Vinyl Scratch was lying on the bed with her head propped up on couple of pillows and the latest Daring Do novel in her hand. It was Vinyl's opinion that this was A. K. Yearling's best work to date.
Octavia had come home about half an hour ago. She'd been at some meeting tonight related to the Canterlot Philharmonic, or something like that. Vinyl despite her best efforts could never keep it all straight in her head, but whatever had happened at the meeting had left Octavia in a good mood because she'd been humming to herself since she'd gotten home.
But Vinyl's mind was focused on this book. A. K. could really create adventures that pulled a pony in. So the unicorn was caught a bit off guard when the bed bounced and jostled due to Octavia hopping onto to it in a manner she usually didn't do. Looking up Vinyl's attention was no longer focused on the book.
The earth pony still wearing some of the outfit she'd worn tonight to the meeting, but somewhere in the time since she'd gotten home Octavia had discarded parts of it. The mare was kneeling on the beside the unicorn smiling as chewed on her lower lip.
"Yo Octy! Babe! How did the meeting go? Ya look like your in a good mood. What's the deal?"
Octavia happily started bouncing up and down on the mattress. Which was very entertaining to watch, but at the same time very, very distracting for Vinyl. "They made the final selections for the Fall Season! Vinyl! I'm going to be the lead cellist!"
A Cheshire Cat-like grin slowly spread across Vinyl's face. "Octy! That's awesome! I can see you're totally stoked!"
The earth pony fidgeted and started to play with the tie that she'd untied and now had draped across her shoulders. "It is dear! I'm thrilled! This is what I've dreamed of for years, and I want to celebrate. So Vinyl. I was wondering if....maybe you might want to..."
Vinyl closed the book. She had a much more interesting adventure in front of her.
