10th Dress - dated to just after mushroom stuff

[frilly_filly]

[Well, this is worrisome.  It looks like one of Rarity's housemates is gone for good.  She noticed almost right away - it was a dead giveaway when Rarity looked into Xion's room and noticed her favorite black hooded robe missing.  Leave it to this one to notice disappearing clothing before everything else.  Sighing a bit, she heads for the phones

[Kono notices the well-dressed pony coming down the street. She figured this must be one of the talking ponies that she's heard about. However, this particular pony just look... a little sad.]

Hey... are you ok?

[frilly_filly]

[Rarity sighs, shaking her head and dramatically pulling the hood over her face. Everything needs to be a show with this one, even when the emotional display is genuine.]

I'm afraid I've just lost a friend.

[surf_n_makai]

[Huh. So the ponies do talk. And are very, very dramatic it seems.]

I'm sorry to hear that. That has to be hard.

[frilly_filly]

It's... strange. I've never had to deal with a drone extensively before, let alone live with one. She has the same face, but it's just not her at all.

[surf_n_makai]

There are drones living in my house, but I've only known them as drones.

I don't know anyone who's turned into a drone yet. It must be awful.

[frilly_filly]

I suppose it's something everypony has to deal with while they're here, but it doesn't make it any less depressing.

[surf_n_makai]

No, it doesn't. Especially if it's someone in your house. I hope it'll get easier for you.

[frilly_filly]

I'm sure it will. Thank you.

[surf_n_makai]

You're welcome.

[At this point Kono's realized that she's asked this pony about how she's doing and offered sympathy, but she hasn't actually introduced herself. Rude.] By the way, I'm Kono.

[frilly_filly]

Oh, yes, how rude of me! I am Rarity. It's a pleasure to meet you, Miss Kono.

[surf_n_makai]

Pleasure to meet you, too.

That's a very nice cloak you have there. Very... sparkly.

[frilly_filly]

Is it? Oh, did I go too flashy on the chains? I must confess, I'm not used to working with such a drab color palate.

[surf_n_makai]

No, it's pretty. The black means you could use whatever other color you wanted, right?

[frilly_filly]

It does pair well with almost any other color, it's true. But in this case I was trying for a faithful recreation of the original garment.

Resized to fit a pony, of course.

[surf_n_makai]

I think it's beautiful. And it's impressive you made this yourself.

[frilly_filly]

It's not the sort of thing I'd wear out all the time, but I thought it would be nice to have a reminder of her. She was part of my first family here, after all.

[A soft smile.]

I'm glad it turned out well.
