Original Description:
 
Sunset immediately recognized the shop owner as the director of Camp Everfree, from the time she and the rest of her friends went to summer camp. She began to feel that this would be an intriguing aspect of her extended visit to Equestria, seeing familiar faces she knew back in the other world as these pony counterparts. Momentarily after taking this in, Sunset was greeted by the pony Gloriosa Daisy, welcoming in to her business shop.
 
“Hello there!” Gloriosa said with enthusiasm. “I take it you’re here to order some flowers for a special somepony?”
 
Despite how she technically already knew the human Gloriosa, Sunset merely played it safe by pretending they’ve never actually met before. She felt that she would come across as strange to these ponies by acting like she already knew them from her interactions back in the other world. Plus, for all she knew, their lives here in Equestria would likely differ from their human counterparts. For example, it didn’t seem likely that this Gloriosa was worried about Filthy Rich taking over a campsite in the Everfree Forest. Coupled with the fact that Sunset knew that most ponies don’t even reside in that particular forest from the dangers, she decided it was most likely the pony Gloriosa was simply a flower shop owner with no intents of using magic to cause destruction. With this in mind, Sunset continued the conversation.
 
“Hi, I’ve heard about you, actually.” Sunset began. “You’re Gloriosa Daisy, right?”
 
Gloriosa responded in a somewhat surprised tone. “Oh, wonderful to hear you’ve heard about my shop and the many flowers I’ve grown over the years! Though, most ponies only know me by ‘Gloriosa’. I’m curious how you know my last name as ‘Daisy’, exactly?”
 
Sunset’s eyes widened, feeling like she completely messed up her plan to play things cool and pretend that these ponified humans were beings she had never met before. She swiftly looked around, trying to come up with a cover, before she noticed the cutiemark Gloriosa had.
 
“Erm… your cutiemark!” Sunset blurted out. “It looks like a daisy to me, so I guess that was just a lucky guess.”
 
Gloriosa looked back at her flank before speaking up. “Oh, okay. I guess that makes sense, thank you for being so… observant.”
 
“Yeah, sure. Anyways, about the flowers, I was mostly just checking to see if you had any pink roses in stock?” Sunset questioned. “I have a friend waiting outside who’s been expecting to pick up an order of them, and she’s been waiting out there for nearly an hour. Plus, I looked around the shop and noticed there weren’t any pink roses at all.”
 
“Oh, yes!” Gloriosa confirmed. “I actually just went to the back after my lunch break, and found the last batch we have in stock. The pony who ordered the bouquet informed me somepony named ‘Maud’ would be here to pick them up. I presume that’s you?”
 
“No, that’s actually the pony waiting outside.” Sunset clarified. “I’m just here to browse for a little bit, but alright. Good to know you do have the flowers she’s looking for. But come to think of it, I might check out what you have as well.”
 
“Very well then, I’ll bring out the pink roses for my little friend outside!” Gloriosa said before going back into the storage room.
 
Sunset turned around and examined the many flowers around the shop. She was surprised to see Gloriosa even had Poison Joke for sale, which made Sunset more cautious to not accidentally come in contact with those weeds. But she suddenly remembered that Princess Twilight mentioned through her journal that she did generally enjoy flowers, although she never really specified which flowers. After some thinking, she also recalled Twilight mentioning yellow was one of her favorite colors. After browsing enough, she eventually found a pot filled with numerous yellow tansies. They seemed like the only presentable flowers that Twilight would most likely enjoy, and being in the same color she preferred. With this in mind, Sunset picked a nearby batch that were already within a bouquet and went to the front counter to pay.
 
Gloriosa just came back with the batch of pink roses for Maud, before she took notice of Sunset holding a bouquet of tansies. “Ooh, excellent choice! Tansies are one of my favorite flowers as well. I take it these are for somepony special?”
 
“Yeah, I guess you could say that.” Sunset said jovially. “How much are these?”
 
“Well… these normally sell for about 16 bits per bouquet…” Gloriosa began. Sunset immediately winced at the price before Gloriosa continued. “However, since they are more popular this season, I’ve discounted them to 4 bits each. Would you still like to buy?”
 
Sunset felt that 4 bits seemed a lot more reasonable, before shaking her head in approval. She took off her saddlebag and reached in to find four bits, before setting them on the counter.
 
“Thank you very much!” Gloriosa said as she took the bits and picked up Maud’s order. “These pink roses have got to be an extra-special gift for this Maud pony. These are incredibly rare to find in Ponyville, even throughout Equestria as a whole. Whoever ordered these, they were willing to pay 200 bits for this bouquet.”
 
Sunset’s eyes widened upon hearing this. She certainly got the impression that Cheese Sandwich, or whoever ordered those pink roses really loved Pinkie. “Let’s just say the pony who’s getting those pink roses is one lucky pony indeed.” Sunset said, happy for Pinkie.
 
Just as Sunset had finished her sentence, Maud entered the shop, ringing the bell from the door opening. Both Sunset and Gloriosa looked toward Maud before the rock expert pony spoke up. “Did I just hear my name? And pink roses?” Maud asked, before she noticed the pink rose bouquet Gloriosa was holding, and approached the counter.
 
“Ah, yes. You must be Maud, and I see you have the order receipt on you. Very good, here are your pink roses.” Gloriosa announced, as she handed over the bouquet.
 
“Cool. Thanks.” Maud said as both she and Sunset exited the shop.
 
Sunset was about to head off further into Ponyville, before Maud stopped her.
 
“Wait a second, before you go…” Maud began.
 
Sunset turned around and looked curious. “Yes, Maud? Did you need something else?”
 
“I never got your name, who are you by the way?” Maud asked.
 
“Oh! How silly of me to not introduce myself, it’s Sunset Shimmer.” Sunset introduced herself. “I only mostly knew who you were because I heard Pinkie talking about you a lot.”
 
“Sunset Shimmer.” Maud repeated. “That’s a pretty sedimentary name. You don’t look familiar at all, so I’m guessing you’re new around here?
 
“Err, yeah, I guess that’s true.” Sunset responded. “I’m also mostly here to attend Princess Twilight’s coronation ceremony, she’s another good friend of mine.”
 
“Well, it looks like the coronation is starting in about an hour.” Maud said, as she looked at a nearby clock on the shop’s building. “I need to go catch the train if I’m going to make it in time. Since you’re new around here, would you like me to show you around?”
 
“Oh, sure.” Sunset agreed. “Maybe I can also come with you on the next train. Lead the way, Maud.”
 
With that said, Sunset put the bouquet of tansies into her saddlebag, before both she and Maud went toward the train station. Sunset felt rather satisfied that despite what Starlight mentioned earlier about showing up at the coronation would’ve been enough of a gift for Twilight, she still managed to find a gift of flowers for her on such short notice. However, Sunset was completely unaware of how Princess Twilight had a fear for ladybugs, and that tansies were a flower that attracts them. There were even a few active ladybugs living underneath tansies’ stems. Sunset didn’t know about this at all, and only imagined how happy Twilight would be after seeing the flowers she got her.
