Sunset Shimmer is invited to a house party! Only there's a big problem: it's happening on the weekend – time she planned to spend with her best friend and totally not secret crush, Twilight Sparkle – and that simply won't do. So, why don't they go together? Well, there are a few good reasons, actually. But none are enough to convince Sunset Shimmer not to bring her along.
The night may be doomed from the start, but that doesn't mean Sunset can't salvage it. And maybe, just maybe, she can find an opportunity to finally tell Twilight how she really feels.
A quick little one-off I've had sitting in the archive for a while. This story takes place in between chapters two and three of my other story Can You See What I See?, but reading that is not required to understand this story. Rated T for profanity usage, nothing else.

Hope you enjoy!
Ooof, this one hit. Poor Sunny can't escape those self-esteem issues...
Adorability is the most wonderful cromulent word in the world.

A very lovely interquel that embraces the sadness of its place in the timeline with a romance that's not yet destined to be. Your excellent characterization for both characters shows itself once again. A wonderful Valentine's treat!
Keep trying Sunny. You'll find the path to your star eventually.
Winder why she had one?
Sounds reasonable.
Classic Twilight.

https://m.Which also makes no sense as she used it just minutes prior.
Huh, while this wasn't entirely what I expected to see how this story ends, I overall still enjoyed it.
Ah yes, the risk of knowing/not knowing the answer to THE question. Classic, and yet, when done right, always adorable.
Oh, Sunset, you absolute disaster. At least it worked out in the end for these two, despite their best efforts.
Lovely stuff. Thank you for it.
Poor girl literally turned into thisi.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/original/001/248/975/503.png
But hell even if she couldnt get her feelings out, the gayness im the air is more than palpable and this as awlays and i love you for doing that. Also i really love how i can easily picture both the shitty party and the beautiful starry clearing so clearly in my mind as i read. This is an all around beautiful addition to an already beautiful story, another treat from one of the best authors ever
