“Pfft, I bet I could beat ya both in a dance battle!” Rainbow said, smirking. Sassaflash narrowed her eyes. “Wanna bet on it?” Rainbow made a beckoning motion with her hand. “Bring it! What’re the stakes?” Her smirk waned a little. “I’m, uh… not really super liquid at the moment, if ya catch my drift.” “Forget money. Losers have to streak down the stree–” “No way,” Twilight interjected, sitting up and clumsily adjusting her glasses with a frown. She was wedged up against the wall next to Pinkie. “That’s the quickest way to get arrested!” Fluttershy nodded her head emphatically, glad that Twilight still had some common sense. She snuggled up closer to Rainbow and–very reluctantly–she had to admit that she wasn’t super keen on letting her girlfriend run around naked with her super hot teammate around. She hadn’t missed all those times Sassaflash’s gaze had flickered to Rainbow’s partially exposed chest this evening… Fluttershy’s eyes widened. Oh. Oh no. Was she a jealous girlfriend?
After one last look, I finally just closed my eyes and hit "publish".
After a 15 month wait, Chapter 39 of What They Expect to Give is finally out!

The amount of work I got done today is pretty wild. Like all of my ADHD hesitations and stress just kind of faded and then I wrote and refined for 10 hours.
