✰ ━ The performer exited the pub in a huff, making sure to slam the door as she left - quite aware that she wasn’t helping the scene that was made. Feeling a bit out of spirits due to a lonely nagging feeling brought on by travelling, she figured a drink or two wouldn’t hurt. That was true enough, of course, but she hadn’t expected mistreatment.
The unicorn muttered some swear words under her breath now that she stood outside the door, recounting what had happened. After - admittedly but justifiably rudely - reclining a stallion’s attempts to take her home, she honestly didn’t expect him to use her past against her. That was all fine and good, only slightly hurtful, until his buddies got in on it and she couldn’t keep up. She’d left her half empty glass where it was, her face red from anger and the embarrassment of not being able to defend herself for more than a few minutes.
Now, feeling the cool night air, she took a deep breath and sat down, rubbing her forehead with a hoof. ..Out of the corner of her eye, though, she saw another pony come outside. Thankfully, it wasn’t anyone who was heckling her earlier - even though she’d still prefer to be alone. She recognized her as the mare who had been singing when she arrived, before the incident. Upon closer inspection, she looked.. a bit different than any other pony she’d seen.
Realizing that she’d been staring awkwardly for a bit too long, she begrudgingly realized she probably should say something. ❝ Hi. Don’t mind me. ❞ She muttered in an unenthused tone, looking away again. ❝ I’m about to leave. ❞ ━ ✰
