“How was your first day of school, Starburst?”

“HORRIBLE! I never want to go to school again for the rest of my life!”

“Oh dear! What happened?”

“Somepony punched me and now I have a black eye!”

“WELL THEN! Who is this pony?”

“I dunno. But he was super mean.”

“Why was he mean? What else did he do to you?”

“He made fun of my wings and I kept tripping over them. He punched me cause I tried to stand up to him.”

“Oh dear…this is becoming a real problem.”

“I know, mom.”

“I might have an idea of bhow we can help…”

“Mom, none of your ‘methods’ ever work. Just give it up already-”

“This ribbon will surely do the trick!”

“Oh…mom it’s pink.”

“I’m aware what color it is, dear. Try it on.”

“Mom this is so embarrassing!”

“Why? I think it looks adorable!”

“Yeah, in the mom world it does. In the real world it looks girly.”

“Oh, come on, Starburst. We can take it off if it doesn’t work.”

“I don’t wanna go to school like this! It looks ugly on me!”

“Oh, since when did you start caring about how you looked? Come on, it’s getting close to dinner time.”

“Ugh. I hate life.”

“Now, don’t you ever say that! You will not die unless you are 90 or older.”

“That’s not what I meant, mom.”

“Just know that no matter what happens, you’ll always be my favorite filly in the whole world and beyond.”

“GET OFF ME MOM! I’m going to my room.”

“When will she learn…”
