Sunny was among the last of his friends to get his cutie mark. Once almost all of his friends got their cutie marks, Sunny resorted to trying anything and everything. He played sports he had never played before, went to restaurants and tried serving food. The food business was not for him. But Sunny did have a small interest in sports. But no matter how hard he played the games he never got a cutie mark. Granted he wasn't that good, he enjoyed playing the sports. So the time came to when Sunny was sure he was never going to get his cutie mark. He started to mope and whatnot, until his mother decided to try and help him. Sunny's mother was a mane stylist and she decided to take him to her work for a bit. They had some candy at the shop for the fillies and colts that came in with their parents so she was going to give him some of that to help him.

Upon arrival at the shop, Sunny took in everything. He watched as his mother worked talked with the mares and stallions that came and went. He was quite impressed with teh things his mother could do with pony's manes.

A few days passed of doing the same thing. Going to the shop and watching his mother. And then the day came. Sunny felt confident that he had learned enough to tackle a pony's mane as well. He watched as a mare came in and greeted his mother. His mother was already at work with another pony so she made the mare take a seat in one of the chairs and wait. So, Sunny decided to help his mother out and take care of the customer. He approached the mare and got her ready to cut her mane. He prepared himself and got the tools ready. The mare asked if Sunny even worked here. She told him it was cute for him wanting to try and cut her mane. Sunny realized this was the perfect time to say what he always wanted to say. Sunny looked the mare in the eyes and said, "Trust me. I'm a professional."

So Sunny went to work. All the mare wanted was a simple cut. So Sunny remembered what he saw his mother doing and he put it to work. Not only did he give her a cut, he gave the mare a new outlook on her mane. She let out a few squeals of joy which caused his mother to come over and investigate. She immediately pulled Sunny away and apologized to the mare about a thousand times. The mare comforted Sunny's mother and told her how much she loved her new mane style. Sunny stood proud of what he did. His mother gave him a stern talking to after that. But Sunny didn't pay attention to half of her talking, for he had a new cutie mark to admire

History: Born and raised in Manehatten life growing up for the young colt was always crazy. What with the busy lifestyle of the city and the life in general, Sunny felt as if he was always on the move. Even when he was standing still. And that's why he loved Manehatten. With Sunny's father being some big citypony and his mother being a mane stylist, Sunny should have felt as if his parents were to busy for him. But that thought never crossed his mind. He loved, and still loves, his parents and they loved, and still love, him. Sunny actually never knew what his father did when he went away. All he knew was that his father was usually gone on business. But he was home for special moments such as holidays and what not. He would often go to a friend's house when his parents were both gone. He loved it, he got to spend time with his friends anyways!

Life for Sunny now is even better than it was when he was young! He still loves his cutie mark, even though it isn't that exciting. He now lives on his own in the city he loves and gets to work at a job he loves. So life is pretty great. He works at a small barber shop in the busy city. Starting off the shop was just a small little unused building that he and his parents bought for him. After a few long days of cleaning up the building and gettting everything the way he wanted, he finally got the shop set up the way he wanted. Once his shop was set up and open for business he never really had that much business. He often finds himself just sitting in the shop and often singing to himself. But as usual even the smallest amount of ponies can change something. After a few ponies came in to his shop he was able to work his mane cutting magic on them, he wasn't a pro at first but he was eventually able to build up his skills and get his mane cutting skills known. Slightly. His shop is never really busy, but it has it's share fair of customers.

Sunny likes to thank his parents as always for where he is today. When he was younger he never felt as if he would get his cutie mark. And if anything had been different then he doesn't think he would even have the same cutie mark. It scares him to think of what his life would have been like if his father had been home more. He would have grown up way differently. He thanks his mother for working the job she did. He doesn't have any desire to become the best barber in Equestria or anything. He is perfectly happy the way he is right now. He just hopes his live will continue the way it is now.

Character summary:

Being skilled at cutting pony's manes. Sunny likes to think that that is his only talent. He does have a cutie mark with a pair of scissors and all. He uses those everyday. But really, like every other pony in Equestria, that isn't his only talent. He loves to sing. He will just sing away when he is in his shop and not give a care in the world. Only a few ponies have heard him sing before. He has no idea what they thought of it but he doesn't care. He is just happy to be alive. He excels at being happy. He is hyperactive and energetic. His zest for life and his job keeps him going. Sunny likes to motivate himself by saying that there is no time to hate anything or anypony. It is easier to just enjoy it or ignore it. He is motivated as well to make sure everypony that comes in his barber shop to have a great day and leave with a smile.

Besides his love for cutting pony's manes, Sunny absolutely loves playing sports. Any type of sport really. Besides sports he loves..singing. He just can't get enough of that. He loves going to see any show and especially loves art. He has always wanted to go to Canterlot or someplace fancy and look at the art there. Sunny does not like not having enough bits to buy something. It always makes him a bit sad. He's only had it happen once but he dislikes ponies saying he is a bad singer. He doesn't like to admit it, but he actually feels as if he is a great singer.

For hobbies, Sunny loves to spend time at the shop. Even when he isn't working he likes to be there. When he isn't working he loves to go see shows or musical performances. It is a hobby for him since he does it regularly. He loves to go and catch a bite to eat or drink with his friends.

Sunny in general is fun to be around. He loves to make ponies laugh and just enjoy themselves. Making friends for Sunny is not hard at all. This bubbly and energetic stallion will go out of his way to make friends. Often with random compliments to pony's manes or clothes or what not, he enjoys company. Once you become Sunny's friend he will pretty much invite you to anything he has planned. The more the merrier!

One major fault of Sunny's is that he can often "Slip up" on a pony's mane when he is working. While this results in anger from the customer, Sunny always tries to satisfy the customer. He hates when he messes up. This is often caused by him not being focused when he is working. He has been reminded that he has this problem of not focusing many times. Sunny always fails as singing the high notes. So he always sticks to the lower partials. He tries sometimes...but the notes never really come out. Sunny isn't good at handling angry ponies either.

Of course, one major worry of Sunny is that he won't cut a pony's mane like how they wanted or described it. He always wants to cut a pony's mane to their exact expectations. He always. But, he thinks that he will be just fine in life. There's always room to improve.

Hey there Derpyy!

Sunny here seems like a cute, cheerful character that would make a great addition to World of Equestria! There are just a couple things I'd like to address before moving things along - nothing drastic, just some finishing polish really!

Firstly, Sunny's history feels a little like a ramble and I'm getting more of a sense of a character summary feel from it - you have a heavy focus on his relationship with his parents and his goals, but lack a focus on milestones and important moments in his life that lead up to where he is now. Why not try talking about how he perfected his skills, whether or not he struggled, and how he set up his shop? Details like those would really make this application shine!

One other minor thing is the very last portion of your app. You mention he fears losing his job, but Equestria is a very forgiving place and I can't see anypony losing a job just because they made a mistake! If this is just a worrywart sort of quirk that Sunny has, could you please point that out?

Thanks much! Let me know when you've made progress with your app, please, and happy writing!

Hey there Elder! Thank you for reviewing my app! I added in a few new parts to his history and after reading it over you were right! I did ramble :-|. Apologies!

And for the losing the job part, I have no idea how I forgot about that! I honestly think when I was writing that I intended it to just be a silly little worry of his. Actually Quirk is the better word! Thank you! :)

I await to see if I must change anything else!
