Octavia figured a seasonal job at the mall would be easy. All she has to do is play cello, look fancy ... and save the world from a magical monster.
Shame that last part wasn't in the job description.

"Cozy Cashmere’s Novelty Sock Emporium" is right up there with Stinky Bottom's Discount Hat Emporium.
I'm going to assume Rutherford's is a department store. Possibly one that smashes the prices of their competitors.
And given that the car is a stereo, she can probably afford to do without.
See this? This is why I love Equestria Girls. It's not just modern fantasy, it's wonderfully absurd modern fantasy.
I'm going to need more details on the mission to save Santa.
"Depends. Did you see any creepy stores that weren't there yesterday?"
"No."
"Kiosks?"
"Vinyl."
"Fiiiine."
This is peak Sonata characterization.
Never summon anything bigger than your head, Sonata.
Brilliant work from start to finish. Thank you for a hilarious adventure, and merry Jinglemas.
Adorable. Needs the EQG tag though.
How long does cello chords last? Electric Guitar's do for about 20 hours of play, but I imagine non-metalic ones do for longer.
I admit, not what I was hoping for ^^’
But I seeing you had fun and at least meet the minimum criteria and at least had them become friends in the end and not something bad happen to Sonata this gets an A-okay 👍
If you have time, check out mine 😷 and happy holidays
I’m one of those who thinks that Sonata is actually the most dangerous of the Sirens. An evil goofball is still evil and nobody sees their schemes coming.

Meh, can of off out whenever every other pInkie pie/sonata sentence ends with a !
But I did love her not thinking this plan through XD
Hope you enjoy mine when the time comes too ^^’
This story was really...
Spaced the e into creepy, although etomes would be one hell of an idea.
I love that I believe this without a second thought. Like, yeah, that's a totally normal thing for the Rainbooms to be doing, all things considered.
Great job! I really liked your characterization of Octavia, Vinyl, and Sonata. I also really like how you work this story into the EqG world in such a way that it feels like this is just another day in a weird world of magical teenagers and horse-girls.
Reminds me of Manly Wade Wellman (Yes, that is his actual first name), who wrote a series of short stories and novels about a mountain man travelling musician, who also battled evil with the help of a silver-stringed guitar... Silver John - Wikipedia
A delightful bit of holiday silliness, and the characters are spot on. The Krampus is a perfect antagonist, too.
Happy Frieza Day!/Merry Christmas!
Hello, would you say this counts as friendshipping for Octavia and Sonata? I run a shipping group and am wondering if I should add this to it, on those terms.

Nice story, good work.

I mean, why not? Let the members of the group decide, if nothing else. :)
An oldie and a goodie.
They don't have the internet where the Krampus lives.
Or department stores.
If at first you don't succeed, defect and join the opposite team.

Oh that’s nothing, you should see some of my other such sonata Octavia fic :p

Indeed ^^ secretly was craving romance, but I’m more than happy with this as almost a SonTavia romance break

Something for me to look into for future SonTavia stories

Love when commenters give such detailed comments ❤️
Judging by the fact she's dressed as an elf helping escort children to see a mall santa, I'm pretty sure she's in the clear.
I find that hard to believe.
There's something Rarity would likely agree with.
A space is needed after "they're called!"
Looks like Vinyl was right for once.
Yep...
I find that hard to believe it'll happen.
Oh shit!
She had it coming.
How is that naughty?
