twilightpony | Hush Now Quiet Now

I've been meaning to have a slumber party in the castle since I don't know when. I even ordered a new copy of Slumber 101, not that I couldn't cobble together a new schedule of events from memory, but because that book was integral to my early exploration of the Magic of Friendship, with the help of Rarity and Applejack.

So I took my book down from the shelf today and moved it to the top of Starlight Glimmer's reading pile and I told her that it was required reading for her next friendship lesson. She is to invite all of us to a slumber party, the sooner the better! She's never had a slumber party before and I told her, neither had I until moved to Ponyville to study Friendship. This is going to be perfect! Her first slumber party, my second slumber party, and a new, wonderful memory for this stone home.

Starlight Glimmer did the rounds and she has managed to wrangle the lot of us into an overnight, day after tomorrow. This afternoon she was already looking nervous and excited at the prospect. She got lost a few times looking for the reading room, then the room where we store the stationary supplies and bookmarks, then where we might keep spare pillows and mane curlers and snacks, then the front door so she could go buy supplies... I think I should take her to Zecora's for breathing exercises.

A slumber party! Day after tomorrow! For seven ponies and Spike! Good thing this castle is so big, we could, should, all sleep in the same room. But that's up to Starlight Glimmer to decide. I must resist the temptation to organize.
