Description:
Hot Head: takes a deep breath Today’s the day! I’m gonna ask her!
Lucky: You said that before. And the time before that and the time before that
Hot Head: Okay, okay, I get it! I just really like this girl. I get nervous to talk to her is all…..
Amber: Why do you like her so much anyways?
Hot Head: I-I dunno. She’s really cool and nice to me and she says hi to me whenever we walk by each other and I think she might like me too…
Amber: How many times have you talked to her?
Hot Head: …….. I dunno. A couple times?
Amber: A couple times? Really? raises eyebrow Hot Head that doesn’t mean anything.
Hot Head: What do you mean? Nopony’s ever been nice to me like that before and
Amber: Just because somepony is nice to you doesn’t mean they love you
Hot Head: W-well, you and Lucky are nice to me. And you love me!
Amber: That’s different Hot Head. You’re family. Family love is different from love love
Hot Head: How would you know?
Amber: ………..
Hot Head: That’s what I thought
Amber: Whatever. Fine go talk to her then. But don’t come crying to me when your heart’s broken.
Hot Head: I will! storms out the door
Lucky: Good luck
Amber: huffs

Hot Head: U-uh, no, I haven’t…
Whirlwind: It’s a competition in Cloudsdale where pegasi from all over get to show off their skills! The princesses and the Wonderbolts go. It’s a good way to promote yourself if you want a career in flying.
Hot Head: Really? W-wow. That’s cool.
Whirlwind: Sure is! This is the first year I’m trying. I finally got convinced. Say, how old are you?
Hot Head: Thirteen
Whirlwind: Hey, you’re old enough! Why don’t you try?
Hot Head: Should I?
Whirlwind: Yeah! I mean… if you want to. I’m not really sure what kind of life goals you have but if it involves flying, I think you should.
Hot Head: Sure. I’ll give it a shot.
Whirlwind: Cool!
Hot Head: So… What are you waiting for? Why don’t you practice already?
Whirlwind: I’m waiting for somepony. Oh here he is now! points upwards

Hot Head: steps back in the orphanage and looks to Amber
Lucky: Hey, Hot Head! How’d it go?
Amber: looks at him knowingly
Hot Head: runs to his room and slams the door
Lucky: …….. not good I guess.
Amber: sighs and gets up, following where Hot Head went
Lucky: Are you gonna talk to him?
Amber: Yeah… He’s gonna beat himself up about it if I don’t
Lucky: Okay….. have fun with that.

Amber: opens door and steps in
Hot Head: Go away
Amber: I’m not going away
Hot Head: Why? You told me not to come crying to you after this
Amber: I didn’t mean it. Besides, I’m coming to you
Hot Head: I don’t want you here!
Amber: Hot Head, we need to talk about this, okay?
Hot Head: Well, what then??? You were right okay! Just like you always are!
Amber: Would you relax? I just want to know what happened
Hot Head: Why? So you can rub it in?!
Amber: I’m not here to tell you “I told you so”. Just tell me what happened.
Hot Head: ………………… she didn’t even know my name
Amber: …………..
Hot Head: And she has a coltfriend. And it’s that Prism Bolt guy! He’s such a jerk! And he’s rude and he’s mean to her and
Amber: How’s he mean to her?
Hot Head: He kept talking about how he was better at flying and all this other stuff
Amber: Hot Head, that’s just called flirting. Some mares like it when guys tease like that
Hot Head: But why??? Wouldn’t it be better to be with somepony who’s nice to them?
Amber: Well, you’d think but that’s just how it is sometimes.
Hot Head: That’s stupid! He’s stupid It’s so unfair!
Amber: Hot Head. That’s just how it is. You can’t just dislike “this Prism Bolt guy” because he’s going out with the mare you liked and barely ever talked to
Hot Head: What do you mean??? Amber, it’s more than that! He gets everything he wants! He has a friends, he has a family and now he has the coolest mare as his marefriend! He doesn’t do anything to deserve it. It’s totally unfair!
Amber: Sweet Celestia, stop being so emotional!
Hot Head: I have every right to be emotional!
Amber: Look, life’s hard okay? It’s unfair and you’re not always gonna get what you want!
Hot Head: But
Amber: No buts, Hot Head. I’m sorry life’s so hard for you but sometimes you just have to deal with it. If you just cry about it all the time, then nothing’s gonna get better.
Hot Head: When’d you stop caring?
Amber: I! Wha…
Hot Head: You used to be so nice and caring for me and Lucky. Now it just seems like you don’t care! All you do is party and hang out with random stallions
Amber: Are you kidding? I never stopped caring! You two are old enough to solve your own problems! I can’t baby you for the rest of your lives or else you’ll end up being emotional messes kind of like how you are right now. Also, if I didn’t care, I wouldn’t be here! I’ve had so many opportunities to get adopted and move away but I choose to stay here with you!
Hot Head: snorts
Amber: Fine. If you’re not gonna listen to me, I’m not gonna make you. You figure this out on yourself gets up to leave
Hot Head: ……….
Amber: kisses him on the forehead You can think whatever you want, but I do care about you and I always will. walks out the door
Hot Head: …………………….
