>You wait for Octavia... or Vinyl to answer.
>Wait... whats this? A note?

>She was also in a waffle costume... with waffles scattered everywhere.
>"No!"
>She throws the empty bottle against the wall.
>"No one likes you, you ugly, ugly..."
>She turns around to grab another bottle.
>Her eyes meets yours.
>"OH BLOODY HELL, ANON!!!"
>You remain silent.
>"THIS ISN'T WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE!"
>You couldn't think of anything to say...
>All you did was stand there... And stare at the grey mare, pouring syrup on herself.
>She knocks over a stack of waffles.
>"STOP LOOKING AT ME, I'M HIDEOUS!!!"
>She pulls her waffle hat over her head.
>"..."

>You walk over to her, avoiding all the syrup puddles.
Octavia...
>She begins to scurry behind a stack of waffles.
Please...
>She tries to hide under the giant waffle in the middle of the room.
>You get there first, and latch on to Octavia.
>"Let me go! Let me-"
Octavia...
>Her struggling stops.
>"I dont... I dont want you to see me in this state... I just..."
>She buries her face in your chest.
>"Anon... You wouldn't understand... This is... This..."
>Tears and Syrup were being mixed on your shirt.
There, there, Octavia... Somep0nies "like" different things...
>She lifts her head up, blushing, and with tears still coming out of her eyes.
>"LOOK AT ME, ANON! I LOOK LIKE A MADPONY!"
>You stop her.
Some of the best ponies are.
>You boop her on the nose.
What do you wan't to do?
>She looks back at the mess of waffles and syrup.
>"Clean this up..."
Alright.
>You turn on the lights and grab a mop.

>Octavia sat there... watching in confusion as you clean up the mess.
>She begins to cry again.

Why are you crying, Octavia?
>She wipes her face.
>"Y-YOU! A-AND! I-I- AAAHHHH!"
>You had just finished cleaning up...
>All the syrup and waffles were safely disposed of.
>All thats left was...
>Octavia was sitting in a corner, still sobbing.

Don't mention it.
>You give her a warm smile.
>It looks like she is going to cry again...
>But...
