The Morning After The Night Before

Before starting cleaning up the mess she caused in the castle, Starlight Glimmer went out to apologize to our friends for the mess she made of their friendship. Her apology was accepted and true to form, our friends forgave her and volunteered to help her clean up the mess. Well, Pinkie was still sore about the ruined cakes, so her contribution was to bake another. It's not like Pinkie never ruined a recipe before, but Pinkie is rarely easy to fathom. The silver lining to the whole affair was that Starlight Glimmer unintentionally achieved what she had attempted the day before. Each friend concentrated their energies on the tasks they did best -- Rarity repaired some torn tapestries, Fluttershy rounded up and repatriated various creepy crawly critters to their lurking crevices and castle corridors, Dash cleared out the clouds, Applejack collected and sorted through her family photos, and Pinkie baked. A Starlight spent time helping each of them, strengthening their friendships, and finally winning Pinkie's forgiveness. It took all day to finish the clean up, round up, fix up, bake up and so on. So out of hardship, several lessons on friendship got driven home. The last lesson was Rainbow Dash's to give: how to "chill-ax". Starlight might not have quite mastered that one.

Now it's time for me to "chill-ax", I think. My Astronomer's Almanac says the meteors are going to be at their most frisky in less than an hour from now. They should be frolicking around the lion constellation, Leo. If watching for shooting stars is fun and exciting, does it count as "chill-axing"?
